Title: Sad, But True

Rating: PG-13

Summary: Son Goku has reached his destination. The promise of many violent battles on Namek gives Kakarott a chance to possibly retake his body, but will he? Or will this be another useless attempt?

The ship touches down on the surface of Namek. I can barely contain my delight as the scent of blood and fear enters my nostrils. Such a potent, wonderful aroma. The battle has already begun. The killing has already started, but I will make sure that this fool makes amends for my absence in the beginning of the slaughter.

Oh yes, amends will be made… So VERY many amends will be made…

The door opens to reveal a scene of pure carnage. I drink in the sight, trying to permanently imprint it in my mind. After all, I want to remember it how it was before and after I join in.

The idiot's first reaction to all this glorious destruction is to be repulsed. Repulsed? What could be more beautiful? The sight of decimation is a marvelous thing to behold by any Saiyajin. Perhaps I will never understand this simpleton. Nor do I care to.

His second reaction is a strong wave of hatred as he sees his son and friend sprawled on the ground, seemingly lifeless. I so do hope they are not dead. I want to be the one to take their lives from them.

He rushes forward, pulling the sensu beans he has brought with him from his gi. He kneels down next to his son and presses the bean into the boy's mouth. Disappointment fills me as I realize what the moron doesn't. His son's neck is broken.

Remarkably, he finds a way to make the boy swallow, but unless the injury is fresh, it will do no good. Apparently, the fool's and my own wish is granted as the boy begins to stir and wake.

Relief floods the idiot's soul at the sight, but it is soon replaced with deep worry as he recalls that his best friend is not in much better shape than his son was. That, however, is washed away and pure joy wells up in his heart once he successfully heals the bald human.

It's sickening… Disgusting…

The fool reads the human's mind, absorbing all the memories of what has occurred on this filthy planet. Vegeta has been helping them? The Saiyajin prince actually saw it fit to be on this miserable hunk of rock? Why in the cosmos would he want to…?

Then the answer comes to me. Vegeta is only helping these weaklings so that HE can use the Namekian dragonballs to wish for immortality rather than let Frieza have that same wish. A ruthlessly brilliant plan, indeed.

The idiot digs out the last sensu bean and tosses it to the battered prince. The lumbering, thickheaded fool that has caused all this lovely destruction tries to catch the bean with his mouth only to have it break through his teeth and reach its intended target.

Vegeta catches it and eyes it and the simpleton warily. Son Goku shouts to him to eat it, and after a few more seconds of suspicious contemplation, the prince pops the green seed into his mouth.

The baka turns his attention to the slow-witted ox. I can feel the anger boiling in him. Despite this, he gives the moron a chance to surrender and leave the area in peace.

No!! Kill him!!! He can leave in PIECES!!!! KILL!!!!

Fortunately, the big lummox ignores the fool's offer and powers up to fight him. It doesn't appear that this will be a challenge at all. Judging from the power level of the oaf, it seems that this will be an easy fight to win. Maybe not even a fight at all…

It takes only one elbow to the stomach to bring the giant to his knees, clutching his abdomen in agony. This is nothing. It's shameful to even have to deal with this weakling. The moron is simply wasting my energy on this. Though the anticipation of a kill is rising in me, a strong feeling of disappointment is with it. If all the battles are like this, I will never progress in reclaiming my body.

It was then that I realized that Son Goku had no intention of destroying this pathetic member of the Ginyu Force. My rage knew no bounds. Not only was he giving them all chances to escape their fate, he has no desire to finish the work he started. It seems that I am going to have to fix that little problem…

KILL HIM!!!! He almost killed your son and your best friend, and you're going to let him live?! Take your revenge!!! Kill. Him. NOW!!!!

I can feel him struggling against this new desire that has risen up in him. It has become harder for him to ignore my will, but he fights it with a vengeance that I would have never expected.

The orange and blue Ginyu Force members, Jeice and Burter, leap forward and use all their speed tactics to try to get the baka to lash out at them. He thinks about doing just that, but after I give a little 'influence' to him, he decides to let them wear themselves down.

After a short while, I can feel their power levels drop substantially. Not that it really matters. They could be handled just as easily as that oaf Recoome was, though these two do appear to be more intelligent than their fallen companion.

Finally, they realize that this approach will do nothing more than drain them of their energy and begin to fire ki blasts. None of them connect, however, because of the superior speed of my body. This greatly frustrates the two of them and they both attack at once.

Their double attack does nothing more than anger them more when the simpleton disappears from the skirmish, and they end up nailing each other with kicks and punches that were intended for the fool. They scream at each other, both blaming the other for it. I find it rather entertaining to see the full extent of their ignorance and stupidity, but Son Goku merely feels sympathy for them.

He could never be a true Saiyajin. Merciless decimation is what we live for. It fuels our bodies and sates our destructive instincts. It is our drug. We get our highs from destroying and being destroyed. This sorry excuse for a warrior could never fully understand that, let alone except it. That is what makes him weak, and that is what will make me strong.

They attack again, and Son Goku quickly knocks Burter out of commission. Yet again, he does not wish to complete the work that he began and allows the coward Jeice to escape. It makes no difference to me anymore. They could not pose a threat to me, and it would be a useless waste of my energy and time to kill them, the weaklings they are.

Besides, seconds later, Vegeta takes care of the unfinished business himself, destroying both Recoome and Burter. The baka objects to this, but there isn't much that he can do about it now.

The situation quickly turns to the subject of the dragonballs and how to get them back. It seems that Frieza has all of them, but, as the bald human points out, the insane warlord doesn't know the Namekian chant to call the dragon forth. Furthermore, he mentions that he knows where the last of the Nameks are, and that they posses the knowledge and capability of calling the dragon.

The infinite possibilities of immortality rise in my thoughts. No end to my reign over the universe. Such a tempting thing to wish for. No death. However, this would severely dampen the thrill of a true battle. The knowledge that you cannot be destroyed lessens the excitement, and, eventually, fighting would become nothing more than a chore. Perhaps immortality is not as grand as many think…

Suddenly, my thoughts are interrupted when two power levels begin to make themselves known. One is Jeice, and the other is unfamiliar. I can feel that the unknown one is much stronger than any of the Ginyu Force members that the idiot has fought, but it won't prove to be that much more difficult. My level of power is enough to dwarf this one.

It seems that the battles before Frieza will be nothing more than petty attempts. If this is the most powerful fighter that Frieza could find, then the universe has become a place for the weak rather than the strong. Perhaps this is why the psychotic tyrant can keep control over most of it without any difficulty.

Before I can ponder the subject further, Jeice and an ugly purple freak with ridiculous looking horns sticking out of the side of his head land in front of us and perform one of those humiliating poses, the grotesque purple one introducing himself as Captain Ginyu.

The baka turns and tells the bald one and his son to go find the last Namekians and receive the chant that they need to summon the dragon, and then the fool asks for Vegeta's help in disposing of the two remaining Ginyu Force members. The arrogant prince says that he will, but I can tell by the look in his eyes that he has absolutely no intention of doing so.

The monk and his son warn him of the unreliability of Vegeta's words, but he pays them no heed and tells them to leave. They reluctantly obey the command, taking to the air in the direction opposite of us.

The fool is way too trusting and gullible. If he'd been raised on Vegetasei, I have no doubt in my mind that he would have died before he reached the age of ten. If he was lucky, that is.

Just as the remaining two Ginyu members attack, Vegeta streaks into the sky, bidding the simpleton farewell. I know where he's going. He's going to Frieza's ship, where the dragonballs lay unguarded.

It's a gloriously simple plan. He will intercept the idiot human and the moron's son when they return from getting the chant. Then he'll make his wish for immortality when the dragon is called.

One day I'll have to kill him for that…
