The demons stood together in bewilderment as Goku slowly approached them. They could not understand what had happened. Only a few minutes ago, they had killed the one who would show them the weakness in space. Then the one who looked exactly like him, exploded into flames. This golden warrior that was coming towards them radiated with power. Their faces remained expressionless. They tried to look unimpressed. But not only were they impressed, they were afraid. One look into the warrior's eyes and they saw their death engraved in them.
"You cannot kill us." The green demon snarled. Goku said nothing. He merely glared at his enemies, waiting for his cue. His mind was alert, but his body was relaxed. In this state, he would be able to respond to anything they threw at him faster than human thought.
When the demon heard silence, he bared his teeth and growled. The warrior had said nothing. Which meant everything. By saying nothing, the demon knew that he would be killed. No matter what he did, he could not beat this man. He also knew that this man would kill his partner. Even united, their power alone was not enough.
Which left him with one option.
Goku shielded his eyes as the green demon shone a bright light. When he was able to see again, the green demon. The purple one remained, stunned. He had not been expecting his friend to abandon him.
"Where did he go?" Goku asked in his thoughts. He sent the question to the Yaarsdat ships and the Saiyans.
"He's heading straight ahead." Toma replied.
"I believe that's where the tear is sir." A Yaarsdat added.
"He plans to open the tear now so he can get more powerful friends." Goku said to himself. The purple demon also caught on and stood in a fighting position.
"Sir, should we stop the green demon?" the Yaarsdat asked.
"No," Goku replied, "Let him do what he wants to do."
"Goku don't do this again!" King Kai's voice cut through Goku's head.
"Do what again?" Goku asked innocently
"Don't wait for the tear to open!" King Kai pleaded.
"I'm going to make them all pay for what they did to my father." Goku said sternly.
"Goku," King Kai said calmly, "I know you are angry. It's understandable. For the first time you see your father as a kind man and he's been taken away from you. But Goku," Goku noticed that King Kai's voice shook a bit, "In hell, there are monsters that are far more powerful than you, even if you at your best. Comparing you to them is like comparing you and Freeza."
"Freeza was nothing." Goku said.
"Exactly." Goku did not understand what King Kai was saying. Then he slowly caught on.
"They're that strong." Goku said with no emotion. There was no reply. Goku pondered his situation for a moment. The demon was still in the same position as before, waiting for the onslaught. When Goku focused on him, he tensed his muscles.
The flames around Goku grew brighter and larger as Goku shifted into his stance.
"You two are the reason my father died." Goku said to him, "Therefore, only you die." As he said it, he attacked. The demon threw a punch but Goku tilted his head to the side. It bounced off his jaw. The demon's arm wasn't even fully extended when Goku made his own punch. It pierced through the demon's skin. It gasped as black blood started to trickle down Goku's arm. The Saiyan then sent a blast of energy through the demon, ripping it in half. The pieces had just begun to fly apart when Goku launched his kamehameha attack. There was nothing left of the demon.
The other Saiyans watched in disbelief as Goku tore the demon to pieces. Vegita held a very weak and tired Celipa. She only stayed awake because of Goku.
"He's incredible." She said.
"I can't believe it," Vegita said, "Bardock's son."
"He would have been proud." Celipa said, smiling. Then she fell asleep.
"Hey!" Vegita cried, shaking her, "You can't fall asleep just yet." She opened her eyes again, but she was breathing heavily.
"Get her to one of the ships," Toma said, "They're bound to have a recuperation tank somewhere." Vegita nodded and flew off. Toma watched them go, then turned his attention to Goku, who floated unmoving.
"Kakkarot, what's wrong?" Toma asked.
"He needed less time than I thought." Goku answered.
"You mean…" Toma started.
Goku finished the phrase, "the tear has been opened."
