Chapter Thirteen:

The Perfect Super Saiya-jin.



"No...." Gokou moaned as he fell to his knees in front of the prone bodies of his son and Piccolo. "I..... I'm too late...." he sobbed as he covered his face with his hands. Suddenly, a hand clawed at his pant leg.

"O..... Otousan......"

"Gohan...!" Gokou yelped as he scooped up his almost limp son.

"Otousan…."Gohan gasped. "Please... it hurts.... make the pain stop....

"W.... what....?"

"....please.... Kill me...." Gohan pleaded weakly.

"No...... no... I won't," Gokou nearly shouted. "I'll get you a senzu...."

"Y…. you can't… There aren't anymore senzu…. Otousan…" Gohan quietly laughed.

"No!…. why didn't you…" Gokou spat as he clenched his teeth. "…shit."

"Son.... Gokou......."

"Piccolo!"

"Gohan..... is right...." wheezed the Namek-sejin, "it's not of any use.... the only thing that is left for us is a slow...... painful.... death....."

"P.... Piccolo....." Gokou sputtered.

"Please.... Son.... just.... Just finish us off!"

Tears began to form in Gokou's eyes. "I.... can't...!"

"You must.... Gokou.... If you love your son…. Don't let him….. suffer…."

"Otousan! PLEASE!!!!"

Gokou nodded once as he closed his eyes and stood. The death grip Gohan had on his father's pant leg ripped away a long section of clothe. Ki spheres formed in Gokou's hands.

"Arigato.... Otousan...."

With a loud scream, Gokou unleashed the ki spheres, disintegrating both Gohan and Piccolo.

"How pathetic...." Nappa chuckled.

Tears streamed down Gokou's cheeks as the cloudless sky began to blacken. His eyes opened and flashed golden.

"Gohan...." Lightning flashed behind Gokou as he sobbed. "Piccolo......" Another bolt lanced across the cloudless sky. "No!...... no, please....... no…!"

Suddenly, Gokou's entire body quaked and he jerked back. He screamed in agony as golden ki washed over him, pushing him into Super Saiya-jin 2.

A huge crater formed beneath him. Both he and Nappa hovered in mid-air.

Gokou looked down, hot tears rolling as his eyebrows began to smolder and the Earth began to tremble slightly.

"What's going on here?" Nappa wondered aloud as he pressed the button on the side of his scouter. "Kakarotto knows he's no where near as strong as I am...." Again, Gokou screamed in agony as the golden ki pushed him into Super Saiya-jin 3. "Is he going nuts or something?"

Gokou's power reading spiked at 299,000,000. It might be a close battle after all. How pleasant.

The crater beneath the two dipped downward even farther as Gokou's shirt ripped into tiny shards of cloth and silver lightning crackled around him.

"Ehnnn… ehnnn…" Gokou's hair began to grow even longer and his brow became more ape-like. The entire Earth was vibrating, as if it was about to come apart. "Ehnnnn-nnnnn!"

Suddenly, all was silent. Images flashed before Gokou's eyes. He saw The Great Saiyaman reflected in the Saiyaman's own broken sunglasses.

A single tear of blood rolled down Gohan's cheek before his image shattered.

NO!

Hatred filled Gokou, hatred more intense than anything he had felt for Freezer. It was all consuming, like fire burning from the inside.

Gokou's eyes crackled with golden lightning as his pupils disappeared. Like a bolt of lightning hit him, Gokou's back arched and he let out a God-awful roar that echoed around him endlessly.

Nappa's scouter blipped and displayed a number: 750,000,000.

"HOLY FUCKING SHIT!" He shrieked as his scouter literary lifted away from him and turned to dust. Nappa looked to the golden storm of ki that was Gokou. Minutes past like hours, the ki swirling around him hiding Gokou from sight.

"Aren't you going to do anything?" Nappa snarled Impatiently. "After such a nifty light show, are you just going to stand there????" Nappa smirked and took a deep breath. ".....Do you want to end up like your little brat in cheap tights...?"

Gokou's eyes snapped open with a flash of golden lightning, his golden irises burning with rage.

"What did you say...?" Gokou hissed. "That 'little brat....' was my son," he snarled as his lips curled back over his clenched teeth to reveal the small fangs that replaced his canine teeth. His golden hair extended past his knees, and a few locks of now fell over his shoulders. Beneath his ominous ape-like brow, lightning pulsed in his golden irises as he glared at Nappa.

Then, silently, a long, furry, golden monkey-like tail began to wave in the pillar of flames surrounding Gokou.

"A..... a ...... golden tail....." Nappa shrieked as his eyes nearly leapt from his skull. "Impossible!"

Gokou ignored Nappa's awe as he rasped, "This is your last warning.... unless you want to die here.... I suggest you get out of my way... now."

"You're full of it aren't you?" Nappa spat. Gokou didn't even blink. Nappa swallowed hard and continued. "You think you scare me?"

"I either do, or I don't.... Whichever suits you...."

Nappa began to chuckle lightly. Kakarotto could not be that strong.

It was impossible. His scouter had broken because it was outdated, not because of this… this trash.

"Kakarotto... how stupid of you.... it's time to stop kiddin' your self and face the facts.... you can never defeat a GOD!!!!" Nappa screeched as he zanzokened in front of Gokou. He pulled his arm back for a punch, and slammed his fist into Gokou's gut.

Nothing happened. "What?" Nappa slammed his fists into Gokou's body again and again with the same effect.

He tried slamming his right hand into Gokou's cheek.

It didn't even crinkle his skin.

Finally, Nappa's right arm lanced out and grabbed the side of Gokou's neck. Slowly, he began pushing his thumb into the smaller Saiya-jin's larynx.

"Die you worthless dog.... Die!!!! Die like your son!" Slowly, Gokou turned his head and glared at Nappa. A thin line of blood flowed from his lower lip. His eyes narrowed and flashed with lightning." Im... impossible!!!!"

Gokou reached up and grabbed Nappa's wrist. He squeezed, and all the bones in Nappa's wrist turned to powder.

All Nappa could do was yelp.

"You can destroy entire galaxies...." Gokou calmly removed Nappa's hand from his throat. ".... Leave my son to die a slow painful death...." He gave Nappa's arm a twist, one of his bones snapped. "Murder hundreds....." Another twist, another break. "… Upon thousands of innocent people.... But you can NEVER kill me," Gokou roared as he twisted Nappa's arm, shattering all the major bones therein. Nappa yelped and staggered back. "You're nothing more than a worthless piece of shit."

"A.... piece.... of..... shit.....? A piece of.... SHIT....? Damn you!!!" Nappa lunged forward and punched at Gokou with his good arm. Gokou ducked under Nappa's arm and grabbed it.

Nappa 's fist slammed into his own face.

"Damn it....." Nappa cursed as he stopped reeling. He reached into his armor and pulled out a small bag. He grabbed the bottom of the bag with his teeth and dumped its contents into his hand. A single senzu. Nappa swallowed the senzu whole. His arm healed and he smiled at Gokou.

Gokou didn't even bother to move as Nappa rocketed toward him at full speed. At the last possible instant, Gokou spun and slammed his heel into Nappa's gut. Blood spilled out of Nappa's mouth as he doubled over.

"D... d... d-damn you....." Nappa coughed as he again lunged at Gokou with a punch. Gokou turned and grabbed Nappa's fist.

Nappa smirked and slung his other fist around, clocking Gokou in the back of the head. Gokou staggered forward, and right into a Ki blast. The blast went off no more than an inch from his face, yet when the smoke cleared, nothing happened to him.

This time, Gokou attacked. He lunged forward so fast that Nappa could barely see him. Before Nappa could react, he slammed his fist into Nappa's jaw, sending the giant Saiya-jin backward.

"I said...." He stated as he eyes flashed with lightning. ".... leave."





"Very strong power…." Vegeta's mind registered slowly. "Wh.... what the hell happened?"

He looked to his left to see Trunks embedded in the same mountain he was.

Funny, there wasn't a mountain there before.

He looked right, and saw Goten laying unconscious on a little cliff the jutted out from the side of the mountain. He then looked up, and his eyes nearly bulged out of his skull.

"Kakarotto!"

The mountain was really the edge of the crater formed by Gokou. In the center of Vegeta's view was a huge golden glow, with a shaft of light shining up into the sky. He backed into the wall of the crater and looked at Trunks.

Vegeta ruffled Trunks's hair. "Trunks..... Trunks!!! WAKE UP!!!"

"Huh...? papa.... It's too early to spar.........." replied Trunks sleepily.

"Damn it! This planet won't last much longer!!!!"

That snapped Trunks wide awake. "WHAT?!?!?"

Vegeta pulled Trunks out of the 'mountain'. "No time to explain. Get Goten and get your asses to the ship." Without another word, Vegeta blasted off in the direction of the fight.





Nappa was literally shaking with rage.

How could this trash be doing this? To him?

"How..... dare you.... try..... to command me....." Nappa husked as he slowly wiped the blood from his mouth. "What gives you the right?"

He knew that there was only once chance now. Slowly, Nappa brought his clenched fist to his side, and a moon globe formed.

"What gives you the right....?"

"Go ahead and throw your moon sphere... it won't do you a bit of good...." Gokou said.

Then, Gokou was not in front of him anymore.

Nappa's eyes nearly bugged out of his head as he looked down to see Gokou's entire forearm buried in his gut.

Gokou stood back up to his full height and watched as Nappa groaned in pain.

"You aren't even worth my time now, Nappa. Fighting you is a waste of power."

Nappa snarled and coughed as he spat up a large amount of blood. "How dare you humiliate me...." In the same motion, he threw the moon globe and he lunged at Gokou with a punch which was easily dodged. ".... you worthless ant... you now face the true power of the Legendary Super Saiya-jin!!!" Nappa's eyes turned skyward, and immediately began to turn bright red. Golden fur covered his body as he began to grow in size.

Gokou simply glared at the ever-growing Nappa.

Fully transformed, Nappa let loose a roar of pure anger and joy mixed.

"You... pathetic... little.... ant...!" Nappa snorted as he grabbed at Gokou, who did not even try to dodge. He closed his fingers around him and grinned. "I'll crush you....!"

Gokou looked up at Nappa and smirked. "Really....? Why don't you go ahead and show me..."

"Die." Nappa rasped as he squeezed with all his might.

Nothing happened.

Nappa cupped his other hand over Gokou as well. Still, nothing happened.

A shaft of golden light broke through one of the gaps between Nappa's fingers. Then another.... then another.

Then another, until Nappa's fingers were aglow with golden energy. It was all Nappa could do to keep his fingers locked together.

"Ha~a…." A huge glowing aura erupted from Nappa's hands. "HAA~A!!!" Nappa's hands flew apart as Gokou rose into the air, his back to Nappa.

Nappa snarled and unleashed a huge Saiko No Kogeki *Mouth blast* at Gokou, who screamed as the blast slammed into his back.

A smile, if it could be called that, crossed Nappa's face. "Pathetic ant...." The black smoke that erupted from the blast slowly began to disperse. Nappa's eyes grew wide.

In the center of the dispersing smoke floated Gokou. Slowly, he glanced over his shoulder to the horrified Nappa.

The giant golden Oozaru punched at Gokou with his right arm.

Gokou did not even try to move. Nappa's fist slammed into Gokou's aura and ignited his arm all the way up to the elbow.

"You insolent little ant....!!" Nappa yelped as he frantically attempted to put out the fire. As he did so, Gokou turned to face the giant ape.

"I told you it wouldn't do you any good," Gokou stated as he thrust his hands toward Nappa, palms first. "KA~A..."

Nappa finally managed to smother the golden flames on his arm. He snarled and leapt at Gokou. " Kakarotto!!! You....!"

"ME~E..."

".....damned....!"

"HA~A..."

"...INSECT!!!!!"

"ME~E..... HAA~A!!!!" Gokou screamed as he thrust the blast forward right into Nappa's face.

Nappa flew backward screaming in agony all the way.

Gokou rocketed forward and slammed his fist into Nappa's jaw, breaking both lower halves.

With nothing but adrenaline pumping Nappa, he swung his fist at Gokou, who used his fist as a spring-board, flipped over Nappa, and grabbed him by his tail. Gokou swung Nappa around a couple of times and then let go.

Nappa went flying up into the sky. He stopped himself and rocketed back down toward Gokou, screaming all the way,

"KAKAROTTO!!!!!!!"

The instant before Nappa reached for him, Gokou zanzokened right behind Nappa. Nappa spun and slammed his fist into Gokou, catching him off guard.

Gokou stopped and smiled.

Nappa rocketed forward and again smashed Gokou with his fist, sending him slamming into the trunk of a tree.

Gokou rocketed forward, flipped over Nappa and slammed his elbow into the back of the giant ape, sending him crashing down upon a withered oak tree that was barely clinging to the lip of the crater.

Nappa roared in pain as the sharp tip of the tree gouged a whole through his body.

"Get up." Gokou ordered of the Oozaru. Slowly, Nappa stood, ripping the tree from the ground. He looked down at his wound and ripped the tree from his body.

"Do... *huff huff* you think.... that t-this... this.... twig can stop me......? Do you.....?" Nappa husked as he crushed the tree in his hand. Nappa literally began to shake with rage. "You.... fucking.... little... bastard! I will destroy this planet and all on it to kill you!!!" Nappa roared and slammed both his fists into Gokou, sending him flying back into a tree about 20 miles away.

Gokou bounced off the tree and rocketed forward, slamming his heel into Nappa's forehead. Nappa barely managed to stop himself from falling, and grabbed Gokou with both hands and squeezed. Gokou screamed as Nappa squeezed with all his might. "I am the Legendary Super Saiya-jin.... and I will destroy all that oppose me!!!!!!"

"You...." Gokou began pushing against Nappa's hands. "You... are not.... the.... Legendary.... Super Saiya-jin....! Get..... your.... damned hands...... off of me!!!" He screamed and pushed Nappa's hands away.

Gokou was on top of Nappa before he could even blink. He slammed his fists into Nappa's gut repeatedly, who was spitting up more blood with each blow.

Suddenly, in front of Nappa, a very young Gokou leapt over his head. He said something about Piccolo, and then Nappa tasted the dirt. "How can.... "

Nappa was moving toward the Earth faster and faster. Gohan and Kuririn were right in front of him. From behind, Gokou shouted something.

"KAIOU KEN!"

The entire world became blood red as Gokou's fist shattered Nappa's spine.

"How can I.... let a lowly... third... class ant... be... beat me.....twice? How can I....?" In the blink of an eye, Nappa managed to swat a stunned Gokou away, and into yet another tree. "I... I will not be defeated by a fool born with a power of 2!!!"

"Nappa...." Gokou growled as he bounced off the tree and rocketed fists first toward Nappa. "I will never forgive you....!"

"...Forgive.... me.....? Forgive me....? FORGIVE ME?!?!?!?!" Nappa lunged forward and again slammed his fist into Gokou. Gokou caught the fist. "I'll fucking kill you, you son of a bitch!!"

"I... c-can't let.... you….." Lightning once again surged through Gokou's eyes. "I.... won't let you…… I will not let you win...!!! Ha-----a......!"

Explosive golden ki sparked with blueish-silver lightning bolts erupted from Gokou. Nappa staggered back a little.

"I am the legendary Super Saiya-jin... I can never lose," Nappa bellowed as he locked his fists together and brought them over his head. He lunged forward ready to smash Gokou down through the Earth. "Die you scum! DIE WITH THIS WASTE OF A PLANET!!!!"

"I WON'T LET YOU!"

Wind ripped across the now wasted land, the force of the two warriors colliding was enough to flatten most of the rock formations.

Everything went completely silent. Nappa's eyes twitched, as he looked down to see Gokou with his fist buried in his gut. Blood poured from the wound like thick red wine.

"How...." Nappa gurgled through the blood pouring from his mouth. "How... did you get.... so damned.... powerful...? How.... can I... be.... b-- beaten this way....? How can.... the Legendary.... Super Saiya-jin..... be b---- b--- beaten by ......such a w.... worthless warrior....?"

"How dare you! How dare you even speak of the Super Saiya-jin," Gokou spat through clenched teeth. "You came to power only to fulfill your selfish wants! The Super Saiya-jin was born from a pure spirit ignited by rage to avenge the massacre of the Saiya-jin race... I am that Saiya-jin! I am the Perfect Super Saiya-jin Son Gokou! Your worst nightmare!"

Gokou's aura exploded once again, incinerating Nappa's fur. His golden irises once again disappeared as lightning surged through his eyes.

"RYUKEN!!!"

A golden glow engulfed Gokou and in his place appeared a giant golden dragon that ripped straight through Nappa. A huge explosion ripped across the ape's body as the golden dragon melted away from Gokou.

Nappa fell back toward the earth and slowly changed back to his normal form. Most of his upper and lower body was gone, save for his charred lungs and intestines.

"Kak... a... rot.... to.....!" Nappa wheezed as he hit the ground with a wet thumping sound.

"My name is Son Gokou," Gokou whispered. For a moment, a golden nimbus surrounded him and then he changed back to his normal state. He landed beside Nappa. "Remember that when you're in hell, Nappa."

What was left of Tocino's men stared in awe at Gokou and circled around him and what was left of Nappa. "If you live past this day, Nappa... NEVER darken another world with any sort of evil.... if you do... I will be waiting.... so help me... I will hunt you down and avenge any grievance you caused!" Gokou paused and looked at the dying Earth.

A deep sorrow filled his eyes. "I'm leaving now.... if you live... keep the shock of defeat bottled up inside... the shock of knowing that a lowly third class ant has beaten you....."

Slowly Gokou began to walk away to find Vegeta, Goten and Trunks. Suddenly, Vegeta landed in front of him.

"Kakarotto? What…."

"It's over Vegeta…. Nappa's been defeated…."

"What about Gohan? I can't find his 'ki'….." Vegeta questioned. Gokou bowed his head. "Kakarotto….."

"Veg…. Vegeta….." the bloody lump of flesh that was Nappa whispered.

"You…Hmmmphf," Vegeta spat as he turned and looked toward the remains of Nappa.

"Please, Vegeta….. mercy……"

"Mercy…." Vegeta asked. "You dare ask me for….. MERCY??? Tell me….. would our people understand…. If I was to show kindness to a coward like you…. Would the people of Earth understand…?"

"V…. Vegeta….. please…. Mercy……"

"Would GOHAN understand if I showed you mercy," Vegeta bellowed as he grabbed the talking corpse by it's collar. He pulled one fist back, posed to send it crashing through Nappa's skull.

"Vegeta….. please….. help me…."

Vegeta spat again and smirked. "Fine, Nappa…. I'll help you… Vegeta dropped his fist and extended his hand down to the fallen Nappa.

Gokou glared at Vegeta over his shoulder. "VEGETA," he rasped as his hair stood up and turned golden.

"Kakarotto…. Calm down…" Vegeta said as he smiled to Nappa. "Yes, I'm going to help Nappa….. straight to hell…." Nappa didn't even have time to react. He didn't even see the ki attack coming. "Give my regards to Freezer…."

Vegeta nearly toppled, but Tocino's men helped him regain his balance.

"Vegeta…. I'm sorry…."

"Kakarotto……" Vegeta looked over his shoulder toward the huge crater Gokou created. Lava began to flow freely from the huge hole. "Kakarotto…. This planet is coming apart….. We've got to get to the ship…."
