Title: Sad, But True

Rating: PG-13

Summary: Kakarott is now trapped in the body of Captain Ginyu with Goku. His anger knows no bounds, but will he make it back with Son Goku into his own body?

ARGH!! NO! NO!!! He's screwed things up again! The idiot!! The moron!!! The simple-minded dolt!! If he had just recognized the attack, we wouldn't BE in this situation!! Now my body is being controlled by that Ginyu freak and we're stuck in his body because of the baka's mistake. Again the idiot has messed up royally and dragged me along for the ride.

To make matters worse, the purple mutant injured himself almost fatally before he pulled his little body-switching stunt. The body that we are in is slowly dying, and at the speed that we're traveling at, we'll die before we have the chance to get my body back. This bulky body was a lot slower than mine to begin with, and now, with this wound, it's almost impossible to conceive ever catching up with the body-stealer.

This damn thing isn't even fit to be called a body. It can't even sense ki. All the fool can do is head in the direction Ginyu and Jeice sped off in, hoping that we're going in the correct direction. It's pitiful.

If we do happen to find Ginyu, I will make sure that he is killed. It may take forcing my will enough to alert the dolt that I'm here, but right now my fury knows no end. That sideshow freak WILL die for this. Or maybe I could come up with a fate worse than death…

We finally arrive at Frieza's ship to find Ginyu doing a number on the simpleton's friend and his son. However, it does seem that they are in better shape than they should be. In fact, if the mutant could make my body go to full power, they should be dead right now. Apparently, he hasn't had much experience in controlling Saiyajin bodies.

He can't summon the full potential of the power in the body he's in… Pathetic…

Son Goku catches on to the thought and informs the boy and the monk of the discovery. The freak states that he CAN make my body go to full power and orders Jeice to measure his power level as he attempts to attain the optimal potential in my body. The end result is a report of a ridiculously low power compared to that which it is capable of reaching.

After some minor contemplation, they join the moron in attacking Ginyu, finally believing that he truly is Son Goku. This is more of a challenge, but without the Saiyajin hormones racing through my blood and giving me the bloodthirsty high that makes battle sweeter, it just doesn't seem like it should.

Unfortunately, the freak is beginning to understand how my ki works, and he is slowly becoming more powerful. It doesn't seem like it will be much longer before this body wears out and dies. The fool cannot block as many punches as he could in the beginning, and his vision is starting to blur.

An explosion erupts from Frieza's ship, and like the idiot he is, Son Goku chances a glance to see whom it is since he can no longer sense ki. That split second gives Ginyu the opportunity to nail him, and he falls to the ground like a stone.

The pain is blinding, and the fact that this body is dying really isn't helping the feeling either, but while the baka is lying on his back on the cracked ground, he is able to focus his sight on who created the explosion. Vegeta is toying with Jeice, taunting him with that infuriating smirk on his face.

The simpleton forces himself to his feet just as the prince kills the orange freak with a ki blast, reducing him to nothing more than ashes blowing in the wind. A wave of revulsion flows through the dolt's psyche at the merciless killing, but it only fuels my need to get back into my body. I want that battle high, and I can't get it in a body that doesn't release those addicting hormones.

Vegeta, full of savage elation at his kill, turns to the body-stealer in hopes of destroying another being to boost his carnal enjoyment. He begins to attack the thief, proclaiming that he is a Super Saiyajin as he does so.

What a joke… If anyone becomes a Super Saiyajin around here, it'll be me… And if that bastard destroys my body, I'll have his blood for it…

The prince is easily beating Ginyu down, but he is decimating my true body as he does so. If this continues for much longer there won't BE any body for me to get back to, and I'll force this fool to kill us both himself before I spend the rest of my life in this detestable, disgusting body.

The fray ends with Vegeta slamming into Ginyu, sending him plummeting to the ground, which buckles with the force of my stolen body smashing into it. The battle-absorbed prince prepares to finish off the freak when Ginyu decides that Vegeta's body might be a better choice than death, and he begins that enraging technique that has sent me to this body.

Jump in front of the beam!!!! Get your body back!!! GOGOGO!!!! NOW!!!!!

Fortunately, the simpleton had been thinking along the same lines as myself and had already mustered up all the strength that was left in this body for one leap to extinguish any hopes of Ginyu trading bodies with Vegeta.

As he hurls himself in front of Vegeta, I cannot suppress the unfathomable glee that rises up in me at the thought of getting my body back. Well, maybe not getting it back yet, but I WILL overthrow that baka's control one day.

I feel a twisting inside of my psyche as the attack strikes this repulsive body I'm in. The twisting is soon replaced with a feeling of being pulled away, and I loose consciousness for a few moments as I travel back to my body.

Pain immediately floods me as the wounds in my body begin to announce their presence to the fool and myself. The fight has taken a serious toll on my body. I doubt the idiot will even be able to stand properly for days. This would definitely destroy any chances that may have presented themselves to slaughter Frieza, but finishing off Ginyu is still VERY possible.

Astonishingly, the fool is thinking the same thing as I concerning Ginyu. He and I both force this beaten, battered body to stand and take the kamehameha position, though he does the physical forcing while I supply more of the mental desire.

The dolt begins to call upon the ki necessary, and my body is in such unstable condition that both of us can feel the burning sensation as the ki travels from the center of my body to my palms. Normally one does not feel this. Usually, one would only feel a slight numbing rather than the excruciating pain that one should feel when calling ki forth. Only spare ki not used for maintaining life is used for techniques. The ki that keeps the body alive also shields the body from the pain. Apparently, there is so little left that the fool must use the ki keeping my body alive to make the blast properly.

In any case, the simpleton has enough ki left in him to form the attack correctly. Unfortunately, there is not enough left to keep it straight when it fires, and it veers off to the left of the purple freak.

It is then that my body completely gives out and Son Goku collapses back into the dent in the ground, too drained to even stand. Simple things such as breathing and keeping balance have become difficult, and my body refuses to multitask.

The moron lays there, focusing on keeping alive while I listen to the sounds of the new battle that is occurring. Vegeta has now occupied himself with annihilating Ginyu again, but what he doesn't realize is the ruthless plan that's behind the freak's lack of defense. He's waiting for the opportunity to steal the prince's body.

Son Goku catches on to this thought and forces himself to yell a warning to the battle-consumed monarch, but Vegeta, like the arrogant Saiyajin he is, pays the warning no heed whatsoever.

The opening in Vegeta's defense has now presented itself, and Ginyu begins that accursed technique. The fool's thoughts jumble as he and I both scramble for a solution to this situation. If the freak gets into Vegeta's body, we will all perish.

The answer comes in the form of a small frog hopping by. The same thought races through both of our psyches, and the baka picks up the amphibian and throws it in the path of the beam.

The result is glorious as Ginyu realizes that he is trapped in the puny body of a frog. Yes, there IS a fate worse than death after all…

My own consciousness begins to fade even as Son Goku's, though very weak, remains. I sink into blackness as the fool is hoisted up by his friend and his hybrid spawn. Perhaps when I awake my body will be healed…
