Chapter 5: Gohan's Attempt

"Hi guys!" exclaimed a voice, and it was Goku's. "Sorry I was gone for so long. Did I miss anything?"

"Well," Krillin answered, "we were fighting that Refrigatom guy but he just chickened out and flew off. Where were you?"

"That's not important," he replied. "Do you know what happened to him?"

"Not really," Yamcha said. "Are you feeling all right Goku? You look a little funny."

"Yeah, I'm fine," Goku answered. "I've just been flying around a little too much today!" Suddenly, Gohan began freaking out.

"What is it?" Trunks asked.

"That's not my dad," Gohan replied.

"What?!" everybody else exclaimed as they started freaking out.

"See that hair right there," Gohan said. "It's a quarter of an inch off. My dad would never stand for that!"

"Well, if it's not Carrottop, then there's only one person it could be," said Vegeta.

"All right, all right," Refrigatom said, going back to the form they were used to seeing him in. "You found me out. Man, who would have thought that someone would be that obsessed with his hair!"

"I guess Goku is still coming," Piccolo commented. Refrigatom and Vegeta had resumed their stare down.

"We don't have all day!" Vegeta exclaimed after several minutes. "Are you going to make a move or not?"

"Well, I've been doing all of the fighting these last few minutes," Refrigatom retorted. "Why don't you make an utter fool of yourself trying to beat me."

"Maybe I will, but I will destroy you before anyone has a chance to make a fool of themselves!"

"Too late," Gohan muttered. Vegeta then began shoot laser things at Refrigatom again even though he already tried this. And the results were the exact same. By this time, everyone was getting pretty annoyed at the success of their attacks.

"Gohan!" Piccolo suddenly yelled. "You have to go out and fight him! It's the only chance we have right now!" His only response was nodding and grunting however.

"I don't know," Krillin said. "We really can't risk losing you or getting Vegeta mad at all of us."

"He does have a point," Gohan replied to Piccolo.

"Trust me, Gohan," he answered, "you have to go out there!"

"But..."

"Do you want me to put you in the Hydrochloric Acid Chamber again?" Piccolo threatened.

"Well, no, but shouldn't I save my energy until we really need it?" Gohan responded.

"Yeah," Yamcha agreed, "and..."

"Will you just get out there?!" Piccolo screamed.

"All right," Gohan said. He started "powering up" as they call it and his hair went blonde and everyone started freaking out for some odd reason.

"Oh no, not another one," groaned Refrigatom. "If you think that screaming and making your hair change color is going to scare me it won't." Gohan, on the other hand, had completed his transformation or whatever you call it and was standing there with a lot of yellow lights all around him, I think that qualifies for Super Saiyan. Anyway, he flew up to Refrigatom and began to punch and kick furiously because that's one of the few fighting tactics these people actually know.

"I don't believe this," Refrigatom muttered as he dodged every one of Gohan's punches/ kicks. "Your other friends have already tried this and it didn't work."

"You should leave the fighting to the real warriors!" Vegeta yelled, who was not very happy about this sudden change in attackers.

In the meantime, Gohan had moved on to shooting lots of little laser thingies at him, which worked about as well as it did earlier.

"If you aren't going to do anything productive, will just let me destroy you all now so I don't have to waste my time here any more?" Refrigatom said. Gohan, however, wouldn't give up without a least hitting him once, so he decided to use one of the alternating ultimate attacks (well, they are).

He cupped his hands down by his side and began to saying, "Ka- me- ha- me... um, what comes next?" he called to the others. They all started making really weird faces and tipping over.

"Ha!" Krillin called as this magically ended.

"You don't have to make fun of me just because I messed up the attack!" Gohan replied.

"No you idiot," Piccolo yelled with a really big mouth, "'ha' is the next part!!!"

"Huh? Oh yeah!" Gohan turned back to Refrigatom and exclaimed, "ha!!!!!" However, the attack just rebounded off of him and headed straight for Gohan and nailed him right in the stomach. Luckily for him, his mistake didn't make it as strong as it would have been and he got out practically unhurt, but it probably wouldn't have worked anyway.

"Well, if you're done with this nonsense," Vegeta said as Krillin carried Gohan out of the way, "I can continue to destroy this alien!"
