THE LONG BATTEL
"It cannot be." Vegeta whispered to himself. Raditz stood a good twenty yards away from him but he could see he was very much alive. How? Vegta wondered. Could he have only appeared dead to these primitive humans and survived? No. He would have reported in. Something was different about him too. He was never one to stop a fight.
"I said stop it Nappa. Leave her alone." Raditz said in a steady voice. He never would have talked to Nappa before but now he had to.
Nappa blinked and quickly recovered from the shock and turned away from the bleeding woman in the red gi and black jacket. "Well would ya lookie here. Someones back with an attitude. And, tell me, why should I leave her alone. She's is just another useless fighter in the way."
"You're wrong Nappa." Raditz said. "She is the friend of my sister Kakarot. We should leave here now and forget everything about the dragonballs and Kakarot."
"You are nuts!" Nappa shouted. "With the dragonballs we can wish for immortality and kill Freaza for destroying our planet! The last female of our kind was just a perk. Now the royal blood line won't die out."
Piccolos ears twitched at this last sentence. So that is what they wanted Goku so much for. His eyes glared at the shorter sayjin with the spicky hair. A strong anger pulsed through him.
"NO!" Raditz shouted with a wave of his arm. "I will not let that happen. Even if I have to fight you myself."
Chichi groaned and rolled over. Who's talking? She looked up gripping her broken arm lightly only to encounter a bloody mess. Nappa was talking to someone. Goku? She let her vision focus. No. It was Raditz that sayjin they killed last year!
Nappa laughed and took a casual fighting stance. "Oh, I am so going to enjoy this."
Raditz scowled. Nappa always was egotistical.
(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((FLASH BACK)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
Raditz sat on the side of a indoor pool used for underwater training. In his right hand he held a timer and under water he watched as a eleven year old Vegeta held his breath. Come on, Raditz thought. Just a little longer.
Vegeta burst out of the water gasping and coughing. "What .. . was my time?"
"Five hours ten minutes. Still way off your mark." Raditz said.
Vegeta got up and hissed. "Seven full hours is rediculous."
"That's how long it takes to swim the underwater passages on Aquata." Raditz said. "Every sayjin must be able to do it."
Vegeta growled and Raditzs grinned. "Fine do it the hard way." he said dunking the prince under water by the head.
Vegetas splashing and squirming caused water to spill up onto the sides. Vegeta finaly over powered Raditz and drew air into his lungs scurrying up to the edge.
"What is going on here?" Nappa demanded as he walked in.
"Just a training session." Raditz said not taking his eyes off his opponent.
Vegeta smirked and took a fighting stance preparing to attack Raditz.
"No such thing." Nappa said. "If anyone is going to fight the prince to improve his skills it will be me. Not some lower soldier. Go clean some armor."
(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((END FLASH BACK)))))))))))))))))))))))
Raditz ran full force at Nappa catching him off gaurd with his new speed and landed a earth shattering punch under his jaw. Nappa stumbled back and grabed his mouth staring in disbeleif at his former allie.
Piccolo half carried Chichi over to Krillens fallen form and looked up at Raditz the sayjin he had killed personaly last year. So Goku brought a friend with her to fight the sayjins, he realized. Piccolo looked up and streached his senses out. But where was Goku? Shouldn't she be here too?
********************
Goku skipped and let out a yell of triumph as she got off the end of snake way. Ahead she saw the weigh in station and ran inside. "Kami?" she called looking around.
The elderly namek appeared and smiled in joy. "Son Goku! You are back."
"Yep." she held out her hands. "Let's go."
Kami teleported away and King Yama behind his desk sighed. "Seems she made it. Huh, I owe King Ki twenty bucks then."
*******************
"So how is the battle going?" Goku asked.
"Not good." Mr.Popo answered. "Raditz just arrived but you should still hurry."
Goku nodded. "See ya." She ran to the side and dove off. Halfway down she came to the Korin tower. "Korin!" she yelled. "I need some senzu beans!"
"Here are my last two!" the cat demi god shouted throwing her the green beans.
Goku caught them and ate one. The other she put away in her pocket. "Flying nimbus!" she shouted. A yellow cloud zoomed down and caught her. She turned towards the battle sight and flew as fast as her cloud could take her.
********************
Nappa let out a warriors cry and let out his energy in one complete wave. Piccolo held Chichi and Krillen down as it moved past them. Raditz stood still. A wave like that used to have been able to knock him a mile away, but now with his new strength he could easily with stand it.
Nappa saw this and realized he needed to create a new stradagey. Raditz saw this and ran forward kicking his hard in the cheast. He on the other hand, had been planning this for years.
Raditz kiicked and punched rapidly hoping to beat him without having to use the kaio ken move. Doing so will save it for the element of suprise.
Nappa blocked half the moves but couldn't even land a hit. Nappa decided to put some distance between then and flew into the air.
"Oh no you don't." Raditz said taking off after him. Suddenly Nappa turned and fire his Hiyake blast. Raditz crossed hios arms to block but wasn't fast enough at took most of the blast full force.
Nappa steamed forward and kicked at his head. Raditz bent over backwards to avoid it and snagged Nappa by the calf. Twisting around he threw him into a rocky cliff.
Raditz landed. Behind him he heard Vegeta laugh, "Looks like he's roughing you up!"
Nappa groaned and pulled himself out of the pile of rocks that landed on him. He stared up at Raditz and growled deep in his cheast. "You stupid low level! You are nothing but a weak low class! Just like that sister of yours!"
Raditzs eyes narrowed. He clenched his fists as hot blood pumped through his veins. He aimed his body at him. "Kaio ken!"
****************************
Goku flew onwards closing on the site. She felt only two small powers two medium and two large one. "There should be more powers." she said to herself. Suddenly one of the medium powers started to rise dramaticaly. Goku gasped. That was Raditz! She didn't warn him about using the kaio ken techneique!
"Come on nimbus!"
***************************
A red aura built around Raditzs form and Nappa realized the power up seconds too late. Raditz moved forward with remarkable speed and brought his arm back. As soon as he was close enough he rammed his elbow in the center of Nappas cheast crushing his rib cage. Nappa fell back with a thump and a groan.
"Goku!" Piccolo shouted as a small yellow cloud landed carrying Goku. She hopped off and looked down at the giant bald sayjin struggeling to breath with his lung that were impailed with ribs.
"Did you . . .?" Goku asked looking at her brother.
"Yes. Using kaio ken." Raditz said. "But there is still one more." He looked to Vegeta still sitting on his stump not looking at all impressed with Raditzs display.
"Goku. Over here." Chichis weak voice said.
Goku ran over. "Chich what happened. Where is everyone else?"
"That guy." Krillen winced. "The one Raditz beat. He killed them."
Goku gasped and stared at the fallen man. She hide her digust and reached into her pocket and pulled out the other senzu bean. She broke it inhalf and offfered a piece to Krillen and Chichi who neeed it most.
"Eat." she said.
"No, I couldn't." Krillen said. Chichi took hers with no complaint and ate it.
"Take it." Goku pleaded. "I already had one and Raditz and Piccolo do not need it as much as you."
Krillen ate it and soon stood up. "Wow! These things are great!"
Goku turned to Piccolo. "I wish I had more but Korin was out."
Piccolo shrugged. "You should have kept it. By the looks of the power on the other sayjin we will all have to team up to fight him. Even with your and Raditzs improved muscles."
Raditz walked up. "What did you give them?" he asked amazed.
"Senzu beans." Goku answered. "They heal you and restore your strength."
"What is HE doing here?" Chichi demanded staring with hatered at Raditz.
"Chill out Chichi." Goku said. "He's here to help if you hadn't noticed."
"Well . . . " Krillen said looking him up and down swallowing at his height and build. "Hey, the other is moving!" he said suddenly pointing at Vegeta.
Vegeta stood and looked straight across the feild at Kakarot. She was not quiet what he was expecting. Even without her tail he could see, no feel, that she was a sayjin. Her black eyes and hair shouted it. The color of training outfit she wore would have to change after he beat her and made her side with him though. Orange was too human.
"V . . . Veget . . ahhhh!"
Vegeta turned his attention to Nappa a few feet away. He walked up and stared down at his fallen general.
Nappa held up a weak hand. Vegeta took it.
"You better leave now and get your friend some help." Goku called.
Vegeta smiled slowly. Now was a better time as ever to show his power. He licked his lips and threw Nappa high into the air. Goku and the others gasped in suprise as Vegeta powered up.
"Hang on." Goku said.
Vegeta energy swirled and grew with each passing moment. Nappas yell was heard as Vegeta formed a blast and shot it out and reduced his 'partner' to dust. As the smoke cleared Goku had flown up in the air holding Chichi and Krillen up with her by the arms. Piccolo and Raditz followed.
"He- he killed his own partner!" Krillen yelled.
Raditz nodded. "He doesn't need Nappa anymore."
Gokus eyes locked with the murder over the plain. She saw now what she had to do. And that was to keep her friends safe.
"Krillen, Chichi, Piccolo." she said not looking away from Vegeta for a second. "You need to leave and go to Master Roshis at the Turtle House."
"What!" Chichi exclaimed. "But I came here to fight."
"Goku is right." Piccolo said. "Vegeta could get ahold of you and use you against her."
"Plus if you die you take the dragonballs with you." Krillen realized.
Raditz stepped up. "I'll stay."
"No." Goku said. "I need you to mazke sure they get there safe. Okey?"
Raditz sighed. "Okey. But the moment your ki weakens I'm turning back."
"Me too." Piccolo said. "If Vegeta wins then the dragonballs do not matter."
Goku smiled and turned to her best friend Krillen. Krillen was looking down at the dirt.
"Uh, Goku? We grew up together and trained together." he said. "I just want to make sure that well we . . . grow old together."
Goku took his hand. "Got it." She hugged him.
Chichi rolled her eyes. "How sweet. We better get going because that guy looks like he's ready to fight."
Goku nodded. Vegeta was indeed ready. With one last wave the four or them flew away towards the ocean that leads out to Kame House.
"Very sentimental." Vegeta said.
"I know a better place then this to fight." she said.
"Just lead the way." Vegeta said. "Lead the way."
************************
Raditz flew following the two humans and Namek over the ocean to the place where one year ago he had first confronted his sister. He was ready to kill her and her friends then. Now it seemed . . . different. He was trying to protect these lower species from being obliterated by his prince.
"KAme House is up ahead!" Krillen exclaimed. "Wonder if Bulma is still watching the fight."
"I how so." Chichi said. "We need to know if Goku will be needing our help."
Piccolo hissed. "She does but the stubborn imbecele is too proud."
"So is Vegeta." Raditz said.
Krillen stole a peek at Raditz. "Um Raditz? Is Vegeta really as strong I think?"
"Stronger." he answered. "I've seen him do amazing things in his lifetime. Entire planets blown up and erased forever with a flick of his thumb."
Krillen swallowed. "Great. Thanks. Makes me feel alot better."
Chichi slapped Krillen on the back. "Come on. Goku has been through all that training. An entire year. Vegeta won't stand a chance."
Suddenly, a chilling feeling ran up Raditz and Piccolos spins. They both froze and turned back to where they last felt Gokus ki. Now hanging in the sky was a glowing blue orb of light.
"What is that!" Piccolo asked feeling a strange power emergeing from it.
By this time Krillen and Chichi had stopped too. "I don't know." Chichi said. "It could be the moon. (A/N:Piccolo never destroyed it in this story ^_^)"
"No." Raditz said. "It is one of Vegetas most desperate attacks. Artificial full moon light."
"Eep!Moon light!" Chichi said. "Goku against that thing?! We have to go help her."
"Sayjins can regrow tails." Raditz said. "Goku might be in her ape form now."
"S-she can't." Krillen said his eyes growing huge. "Kami severed her tail perminantly."
"WHAT!" Raditz shouted. "What a dis-honer!"
"You can stay here yelling but I'm going to fight." Chichi said flying off.
"Is she . . . ?" Raditz started.
"Yes." Krillen said. "She is always like that."
*********************
Arriving on the battle field Krillen looked up to see a large ape squeezing Goku in his hands. The blue torn undersiut and white and yellow armor was a give away that it was Vegeta alright.
"Hi guys." Yanjarobi said poping up.
"You!" Chichi said. "You ran off. What are you doing here?"
"Cheering on Goku." he said simply. "What are you doing here?"
"We are here to help." Piccolo said.
"Are you nuts!" Yanjarobi shouted pointing at Goku. "That is vegeta and Goku was barely beating him when he was smaller. Now he's ten stories up!"
"Yeah but if we cut off his tail he'll shrink back to normal." Krillen said.
"Just what I was thinking." Piccolo said.
"I can sneek up behind him and use my Distructo Disk." Krillen said. "But I'll need a-"
"One distraction comming up." Piccolo said flying up to the front of the giant ape.
"Make that two." Raditz said following.
"I'm hiding!" Yanjarobi said tossing out a capsule car and driving off.
"You worm!" Chichi shouted after him.
**********************
"Well, well. The namek and the traitor." Vegeta laughed.
"Put my sister down!" Raditz demanded.
"Oh I will. One peice at a time though. Would you like the head first?" Vegeta asked covering her with both hands and tighteniong his grip.
Piccolo looked to Raditz and nodded. Piccolo heard Krillen forming the Distructo Disk and now it was completed.
Krillen let it slice through the air aimed at the base of Vegetas low hanging tail. But inches before contact Vegeta jumped! The Disk passed through the hill Raditz and Piccolo stood on. "So . . . close . . "
"HA!HA!HA!" Vegeta mocked. "Do you really think I couldn't hear you with these big ears? Thought you knew better Raditz! HA!HA! ERP?!"
Chichi on the ground watched in amazement as in one swift move Yanjarobi jumped in the air, cut off Vegetas tail with his sword and hid back behind a mountian.
Vegeta screamed a roar as he stared up at the moon light he created. "NO! YOU FOOLS!"
"We need to take him down now!" Piccolo said forming a ki blast.
Raditz nodded and powered up too. As soon as Vegeta dropped Goku they fired hitting him dead on in the cheast. Chichi jumped up and caught Goku and flew her safely to the ground.
Vegeta cried as he shrunk back to normal size gripping his cheast. His armor was cracked down the center and he tore it off. "I don't need this to deal with the rest of you!" He charged at Piccolo raming him against one of the rocky mountian walls. Raditz jumped in the way.
"Kaio Ken!" he shouted driving at Vegeta.
Vegeta madly grabed for him and tossed him just as easily as he did Piccolo. "Not that silly attack again. Your sister pulled the same thing!"
***********************
Krillen and Chichi knelt besides Goku. Chichi rested her against her cheast as Krillen held her hand.
"We got to do something." Chichi said.
"What? Gokus all wiped and Piccolo and Raditz can barely hold on." KRillen said.
"Oh . . . " Goku moaned. "I . . I still have some energy. From the spirit bomb I was . . . making before. I dropped it. Here Krillen. Hold tight." A white blue aura so pure and bright formed along Gokus arm and passed to Krillen.
"Whoa!" Krillen said not knowing how else to express its feeling. "What do I do?"
"Hold your palm up and form it into a ball." Goku said tired. "It might just be enough."
"Okey Goku. Rest up now."
************************
Vegeta grabed Raditz by the neck as Piccolo crawled out of the rubble. "Traitor!" he shouted in his face. "You were the one I trusted and you betrayed me. I will enjoy killing you more then I did Nappa!"
Raditz eyes winced and focused. What was that light? Over Vegetas shoulder was the short human Krillen holding some type of ki attack orb. He was aiming it at Vegeta but seemed to be waiting for something. Why doesn't he just throw it? I'm not worth waiting for.
"Throw the darn attack already!" A voice called from the mountian rubbled he reconized as Yanjarobi.
Vegeta half turned distracted and Raditz kneed him hard in the stomache. Vegeta let go and Raditz flew out of the way.
Vegeta saw the ball of light flying towards him and jumped up in the air.
"No you don't!" Piccolo shouted driving his elbow on top of Vegetas skull. Vegeta grabed Piccolos shoulders and Piccolo grabed his. "I'm ready to die. Are you?"
"PICCOLO!" Goku cried out as the Spirtit Bomb engulfed both fighters.
Oh my head! Writters block is wearing off. Please tell me what you think and should happen. Any review is good to me!
"It cannot be." Vegeta whispered to himself. Raditz stood a good twenty yards away from him but he could see he was very much alive. How? Vegta wondered. Could he have only appeared dead to these primitive humans and survived? No. He would have reported in. Something was different about him too. He was never one to stop a fight.

"Just what I was thinking." Piccolo said.
"I can sneek up behind him and use my Distructo Disk." Krillen said. "But I'll need a-"
"One distraction comming up." Piccolo said flying up to the front of the giant ape.
"Make that two." Raditz said following.
"I'm hiding!" Yanjarobi said tossing out a capsule car and driving off.
"You worm!" Chichi shouted after him.
**********************
"Well, well. The namek and the traitor." Vegeta laughed.
"Put my sister down!" Raditz demanded.
"Oh I will. One peice at a time though. Would you like the head first?" Vegeta asked covering her with both hands and tighteniong his grip.
Piccolo looked to Raditz and nodded. Piccolo heard Krillen forming the Distructo Disk and now it was completed.
Krillen let it slice through the air aimed at the base of Vegetas low hanging tail. But inches before contact Vegeta jumped! The Disk passed through the hill Raditz and Piccolo stood on. "So . . . close . . "
"HA!HA!HA!" Vegeta mocked. "Do you really think I couldn't hear you with these big ears? Thought you knew better Raditz! HA!HA! ERP?!"
Chichi on the ground watched in amazement as in one swift move Yanjarobi jumped in the air, cut off Vegetas tail with his sword and hid back behind a mountian.
Vegeta screamed a roar as he stared up at the moon light he created. "NO! YOU FOOLS!"
"We need to take him down now!" Piccolo said forming a ki blast.
Raditz nodded and powered up too. As soon as Vegeta dropped Goku they fired hitting him dead on in the cheast. Chichi jumped up and caught Goku and flew her safely to the ground.
Vegeta cried as he shrunk back to normal size gripping his cheast. His armor was cracked down the center and he tore it off. "I don't need this to deal with the rest of you!" He charged at Piccolo raming him against one of the rocky mountian walls. Raditz jumped in the way.
"Kaio Ken!" he shouted driving at Vegeta.
Vegeta madly grabed for him and tossed him just as easily as he did Piccolo. "Not that silly attack again. Your sister pulled the same thing!"
***********************
Krillen and Chichi knelt besides Goku. Chichi rested her against her cheast as Krillen held her hand.
"We got to do something." Chichi said.
"What? Gokus all wiped and Piccolo and Raditz can barely hold on." KRillen said.
"Oh . . . " Goku moaned. "I . . I still have some energy. From the spirit bomb I was . . . making before. I dropped it. Here Krillen. Hold tight." A white blue aura so pure and bright formed along Gokus arm and passed to Krillen.
"Whoa!" Krillen said not knowing how else to express its feeling. "What do I do?"
"Hold your palm up and form it into a ball." Goku said tired. "It might just be enough."
"Okey Goku. Rest up now."
************************
Vegeta grabed Raditz by the neck as Piccolo crawled out of the rubble. "Traitor!" he shouted in his face. "You were the one I trusted and you betrayed me. I will enjoy killing you more then I did Nappa!"
Raditz eyes winced and focused. What was that light? Over Vegetas shoulder was the short human Krillen holding some type of ki attack orb. He was aiming it at Vegeta but seemed to be waiting for something. Why doesn't he just throw it? I'm not worth waiting for.
"Throw the darn attack already!" A voice called from the mountian rubbled he reconized as Yanjarobi.
Vegeta half turned distracted and Raditz kneed him hard in the stomache. Vegeta let go and Raditz flew out of the way.
Vegeta saw the ball of light flying towards him and jumped up in the air.
"No you don't!" Piccolo shouted driving his elbow on top of Vegetas skull. Vegeta grabed Piccolos shoulders and Piccolo grabed his. "I'm ready to die. Are you?"
"PICCOLO!" Goku cried out as the Spirtit Bomb engulfed both fighters.
