"Piccolo, what's going on?" asked Krillen curiously. "Their power, it jsut disapeared- Trunks', Vegeta's, Gohan's, Goku's, and Frieza's, they all just vanished!"
Piccolo stood in the Kame House, not knowing what was going on either. He knew that they were fine, but he hadn't a clue what was going on, and he didn't know how to find out.
"uh, Piccolo, w-what happened?"
"Will you SHUT UP! I'm trying to think!"
"uh, s-sorry, Piccolo... I'm just worried, that's all."
"Well be quiet, I don't know what's going on!"
"S-sure Piccolo"
------------------------------------
So Vegeta, you've decided to try and beat me again? Don't you remember what happened to you last time? I think you ended up dead... did you not?"
"Shut up Frieza, I am an ascended Saiyan, much stronger than when you last fought me, I will prove I am the strongest fighter in the Universe!"
"Oh please, I am an unstoppable force, you can't win, so you may as well just give up now."
"Enough Frieza! I don't have time to waste blabbering on with you! Now fight me you coward!"
"You should be honoured I'm even willing to face such a pathetically powered being, I'm really here to fight with Goku, but pesky little bugs like you keep getting in my way!"
"Argh!!"
Vegeta shot at him faster than Frieza could follow, delivering a swift, hard punch to his gut. Frieza doubled over and fell to his knees, coughing up small spurts of blood as he looked up at Vegeta, only to see a clasped set of fists falling down at his head with great force. Vegeta took of and fired a massive blast of energy at the crater Frieza was embedded in. The blast sends him deeper into the ground, and covers him in a mass of rubble and rocks. Vegeta looked down at the pile of destruction that entombed Frieza.
"Is.. is it over? I can't sense him!"
"No!" Cried Goku and Gohan in harmony.
Gohan continues "You can't sense him, but he is still strong. He surpresses his biological components, but still uses all his mechanical parts to hit out. Be careful Vegeta, you may not be able to sense any of his attacks!"
"Shut up! I don't need fighting tactics from a kid! I am the ultimate fighter of the universe!"
All of a sudden Vegeta felt an iron grip around his neck. AS he looked down a small exit hole could be seen amongst the rubble. It was Frieza, he had got out un-sensed and taken hold of the Saiyan Prince from behind with his deadlock grip. Frieza placed a single hand against Vegeta's back. Vegeta knew what as coming, was he wrong again to challenge Frieza? Why could he never escape this tyrants cold, evil grasp? With almost no warning Vegeta found himself laying against a dirt ridden ground with a rather large whole protruding from the back straight through to the front of him. His power was dropping... FAST. He turned and looked up at Frieza.
"You have always tried to confine my potential. You always knew that one day I could ascend and defeat you. You always knew that I could not be controlled unless you had me fear you. I'm not afraid Frieza! You hear me!? I am the Prince Of All Saiyans and I am not afraid of the like of you! I will finish you! I dare you to test your power! If you truly are an unstoppable force, then face this attack Frieza! What do you have to fear!?"
"Foolish Saiyan, you think you can beat me!? I AM an unstoppable force! And I will prove it to you! Do your worst stupid monkey!"
Vegeta used all he had within him and held out his arms towards the metallic monster. Sparks randomly fired about as energy gathered at Vegeta's hands.
"You're end is now Frieza!!!! FINAL FLASH!!!! HAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!"
The Beam fired out, straight at Frieza, it was only before it was too late that Frieza noticed the amazing power held in this blast.
"N-No!!! Impossible!!!!! ARGH!!!!"
"I told you Frieza... I'm... not..." Vegeta splutters and coughs as his on demise approaches "...afraid!"
With his final words and his final attack, Vegeta's body went limp and his head went loose, falling back, looking to the stars his eyes were calm and his smile was not of anger, but of content as he died peacefully, knowing that he had achieved what he had always wanted, he had freed his race from the icy grip of Frieza.
"N-Noooooooooo! Faaatheeeer!!!" Trunks cried out as he rushed to his father's side.
Trunks leaned of the still form of his brave father. I tear ran down his face, dripping to his father's face, which it then ran down.
"You have so much pride, so much honour. You gave your life for us all, for your friends, for your family, for your people. You truly deserve the title of Prince.
"Booo-hoooo-hooo" echoed a sinister, mocking voice. "Awww, is the little baby boy missing his dadda?"
"Frieza!?" Trunks turned round to see the slayer of his father hovering in the same place he was when Vegeta had fired at him, but... something was different.
"I knew this extra technology would come in handy. When we found that race that could use machine to rebuild a damaged body to it's original form, it was all to good to pass up."
Frieza's mechanical parts were mostly gone, the seemingly main section on his face was intact and some of his left shoulder plate was still there. His right foot could be seen forming from artificial biological matter. This technology was amazing. Frieza had managed to survive Vegeta's final flash because of this, but he had done so in a way not beneficial to him. He had lost the main bulk of his strength, he had lost those artificial section that made him so strong.
"Noooooooo!!! I will not let my father die in vain! I will take on what he had always aimed to achieve. I know the pain of losing your home to a being's of evil, I feel my father pain and anguish, I will not let you live any longer Frieza! You are mine!"
With this Trunks shot of towards Frieza, with his arm prepared for a fierce blow. He forced his hand forward, his fist passing straight through Frieza's stomach.
"Huh? What's going on?"
Frieza appeared behind Trunks and smashed him to the ground with his tail. He followed down and picked Trunks up by the collar, giving him a solid punch to his softened gut.
"Arghhhh!!!" cried Trunks
"Now to take you out like I did your father!"
Trunks eyes widened and his face went white. Frieza placed his hand over the top of his head and held him out, taking aim with his other hand.
"Goodbye... Stupid Monkey!"
"Argh!!!"
The body hit the ground like a dead weight, kicking up a cloud of dust. Goku stood over Frieza's fallen body, his eyes fixed on him.
"No more Frieza! No more! I will not stand by and let you ruin any more lives. I will defeat you here and now. You will not get away this time, I will defeat you once and for all. No longer will I leave you to ruin planets and plague this universe. You're going down Frieza!"
Frieza rose to his feet and wipes the trickle of blood away from his lip. He meant business, he was pissed, and it was time to stop playing. He was going to take Goku down, and leave no doubt that he was the strongest and the rightful ruler of the Universe.
"I will take you down you stupid monkey! You are nothing but scum of the evolutionary gene pool. You were from a messed up planet that needed me. I took them all down with great ease. I savoured one kill especially though. His name was... Bardock I think. He was a lower class Saiyan, not worthy of anything more than a pat on the back for a job well done. He approached me in hope of defeating me, I quickly crushed his revolt against me... along with the whole planet!"
"Frieza! You have slain countless innocent people, you don't deserve to live. You defeated my father, but he was not weak. He fought off many guards and faced you even after he had been beaten down by so many people and laughed at by his comrades. I have heard his brave, honourable story. He fought for the freedom of his race! As his son I will NOT let him down! I will defeat you Frieza!!"
