Chapter 8: Invasion of Otherworld
King Kai's New Planet
"It sure was nice of the Grand Kai to grant you a new planet King Kai!" the golden grasshopper known as Gregory said in his usual shrill voice.
"OOhh!! Oooo ooohhh!" Bubbles, King Kai's right hand monkey chimed in.
"Yeah, sure was! And this new planet is bigger than any of the other Kai's planets!" King Kai chuckled, "If they didn't like me before, they sure don't like me now! Ha ha ha!" he laughed from his gut. It was a laugh that came from being pleased with himself. King Kai had become the most popular Kai in Otherworld when his pupil Goku won the Otherworld Tournament last year. Not to mention that Goku had saved the universe by defeating Majin Buu with the Spirit Bomb technique which King Kai had developed.
"Yeah, this is the good life," Gregory continued, propping his feet up on a rock as he lay back on a mini-chair made for him. He sipped on some lemonade and threw on some cool sunglasses while King Kai strutted over to his new classic roadster to polish it. Its bright red paint job shone brightly in light of the Otherworld, really showing off the superb craftsmanship that went into making it.
The beauty of the day sparked something in King Kai, and he decided to take his ride for a spin. He had plenty of places to go now. The planet's road system had expanded from the lonely single lane of the past into a small highway that wrapped around the honorable Kai's world in several different directions. As he fumbled for the car keys in his pocket, Bubbles began to act crazy. The primate was jumping up and down, pumping his arms and pointing over the horizon.
"What is it Bubbles?" Gregory asked as he put down his drink.
"Huh?" King Kai looked at his monkey friend in wonder and began to step towards him, "What is it Bubbles?"
"Oooo!! OOOOO!!" Bubbles wailed as his jumping speed increased.
"What Bubbles!?" the master of Kaio Ken gazed off into the distance where the monkey was pointing to, "What the heck is that! Snakeway . . . it's exploded!"
Gregory was up and watching right away, his drink spilling onto the ground. The three of them stared at the column of black smoke rising from the mythical pathway in awe.
"What do you think happened King Kai?" Gregory asked.
"I don't know, but it can't be good. "
The cause of Snakeway's destruction soon presented itself as hundreds of evil beings flew out of HELL.
"Oh NO!" King Kai screamed, taken aback by the immediate danger in his quadrant, "This is awful! If they are breaking out, then that means Pikon lost! OH NO!"
Breakout Point
As each villain exited HELL, they zoomed off blindly at top speed in hopes of finding a way back to the living world. A few lingered around the huge pothole in Snakeway and devised what they would do next.
"Finally, after all these years we're free!" a goblin looking monster with olive colored skin said.
"I can't wait to beat the crap out of Goku!" his buff companion declared.
"Ginger, Sancho . . . you'll get your chance. But first we should warm up!" the third goblin looking warrior stated. His skin was a brighter shade of green, almost grass colored and his hair was tall and white. Migi was the final part of the trio that made up the original Spice Boys, Garlic Jr.'s first ever cronies. They were the ones that had collected all the Dragonballs two decades ago that allowed Garlic to wish for immortality. For their loyalty, Piccolo and Goku sent them into another dimension in a flurry of punches and energy blasts. They were very eager to wage war on both those warriors and their friends to get revenge. The Spice Boys wanted to destroy the world! Little did they know that Goku and the others had reached new pinnacles of strength, and that not even the weakest would fall to their best efforts.
"How about that place over there?" Ginger said, twisting his head towards King Kai's planet.
"Looks great to me!" Migi screamed, "Let's power up and pay the people on that planet a visit!"
"Gingerbread!"
"Tutti Fruiti!"
"Pepperoni!"
The three monsters' bodies twisted in convulsions and their pupils rolled back into their heads. Every muscle in their bodies shook and spasmed, filling with hidden energy that was contained in those magic words. In an instant they doubled in size, their strength multiplying two fold along with their overstuffed muscles.
"Ahhhh!" the red-orange sideburns hanging past Ginger's shoulders swayed in the wind as he powered up even further. He strained his mind, putting all his energy forth until two sword-sized blades split the skin around his wrists and flipped into his hands.
"Mwa ha ha!" Migi seized a green growth of skin on his leg and pulled with all his might. With a horrifying shriek he ripped a curved scimitar from his bulging limb and sliced the air in front of him. Sancho's body went through a radical transformation while the others powered up and tripled in size. He dwarfed the others and flaunted his strength, punching a part of Snakeway and breaking it apart. His beefy chest heaved with each breath as the anticipation grew.
"Let's get 'em!" the trio pushed off the mystical street and roared towards King Kai's planet.
King Kai's Planet
"Ahh! They are coming!" King Kai screamed as he saw a group of energy trails heading their way, "Bubbles, Gregory . . . Run!!!"
The inhabitants of Kai's planet ran around like chickens with their heads cut off. They ran in and out of the King's new two-story house, up and down trees, and madly around the planet, encircling it many times before all of them slammed together at the same place.
"Ow!" Gregory yelled, rubbing his forehead, "That smarts!" They all laid on the ground around each other, dazed. "Why don't you watch where you're going Bubbles!"
"OOO AHH AHH!!" Bubbles screamed back.
"You two, they're still coming!" King Kai shouted at the top of his lungs. The monkey and grasshopper stopped their quarrel and turned their heads in unison as the Spice Boy's landed.
"Nice place you got here . . ." Ginger said as King Kai and the other's quivered in fear.
King Kai cringed at his words. He remained quiet but used his telepathic skill to call for help, "Goku! Otherworld is in trouble! We need your help! GOKU!"
Spirit World Check-in Entrance
"I'm bored," Cell said, squirming in the oversized seat of King Yamma's, "This can't be the extent of Otherworld. Where did Pikon come from? Where is everybody else?"
"Maybe one of those slobbering fools knows, "Cooler said, crossing his arms, "Hey you!"
A short red demon stopped in his tracks and shook, "M-m-me sir?"
"Yes you, get over here!" Cooler pointed to the floor right in front of him. The demon employee reluctantly edged closer to Cooler's polished metal body, prompting the villain to grab him by the collar and bring him face to face, "Tell me, where is everybody else. I want to know where all the other heroes go when they die!"
The demon thought for a moment before answering, "This is it. This is Otherworld. There is nothing else to it! Please let me go now!" he flailed his arms wildly and rocked back and forth in Cooler's grip, but Frieza's brother held tightly.
"Ha ha ha ha. Do you really expect me to believe that?" Cooler's head jerked back and forth as he laughed. He suddenly became super serious and summoned a blue orb of energy in his free hand, "Now you better tell me, or you can say bye bye to existence!"
The light blue ball of Ki flickered and grew, causing the air around it to pop and crack, "OKAY! OKAY! I'll tell you! Just please don't hurt me!" the demon cried out as he began to sob, "We have flights departing daily from Terminal B to the Grand Kai's planet, but you need the permission of King Yamma to lift off!"
"Heh, we don't plan on using a plane, do we Cell?" MetaCooler asked. Cell smirked and shook his head in agreement, "We'll find our own way there. You just tell us and I might let you live."
Other demons around the check-in building had either already evacuated or were hiding from the two super powers. The ones that chose to watch were cowering in fear, terrified that Cell or Cooler would find them and hurt them. All was silent on the main floor as the two evil warriors awaited an answer.
"The clock is ticking . . . 5 seconds and you're dead. 5 . . . 4 . . . 3 . . . 2 . . ."
"IT'S THAT WAY! About 10,000 miles northwest," the weak willed demon screamed as he pointed in the general direction, "But you can't make it there without a plane! So this information is worthless to you!"
"Is that so?" Cooler disappeared instantly. He reappeared a few moments later with a smirk on his face.
"So?" Cell asked.
"He wasn't lying. The place was chock full of prissy heroes," the metal tyrant said.
"Ah ha . . . then the invasion will begin," Cell proclaimed.
"Not without us!" Nappa screamed as he powered down and smacked a demon in the face.
"You weren't planning on leaving your father behind, where you son?" King Cold said to Cooler.
Cooler looked at his father in his transformed state. He was so weak . . . he had to power-up to defeat that puny Pikon? It was embarrassing to know that he was related to him!
"Of course I wasn't . . . who's coming with us?"
"All of us," Raditz said, stepping forward, "If you have a problem with that then too bad. Our toes have been stepped on for too long. Everybody must pay!" In his burst of anger the super saiyan tendencies inside him came out and his hair turned golden yellow. The surge of power blew away the weak demons cluttered around the building and slammed them into the wall.
Only the strongest had shown up. Turliss and Nappa rounded out the saiyan group, and King Cold with Frieza made it a family affair. Somehow each of the androids had managed to follow and they too were itching to get their feet wet. Cell scoffed at the rag-tag group of self proclaimed super powers and evil anti-heroes. He remembered the painful punches of that kid, Gohan, and what it felt like when his body blistered and exploded. He wouldn't let that happen again. The more the merrier.
"Okay monkeys, grab on." Cell ordered the saiyans.
"Little brother, father, and everybody else, you're with me," Cooler said reluctantly. The dark hearted warriors latched on the person before them and readied to be instantly transmitted to the Great Kai's planet.
"Before we go, there is one more thing," Cell smirked, looking over to the demon that had told Cooler where to go, "Never hold out on us again!" He screamed at the top of his lungs and shot a small beam in his direction. The weak lesser demon tried to dodge it, but it met him with burning force and blew threw the wall he was standing in front of. The right side of the building began to crumble, allowing random rocks to fall down into the pits of HELL. A fracture began to rip along the wall and up to the ceiling, and a huge piece of the roof fell under its own weight. Cell and MetaCooler used instant transmission, vanishing across the cosmos as the stone tile and cement shook King Yamma's office.
Back on King Kai's Planet
"Oh yeah, you're going down old man!" Ginger screamed, trying to intimidate his prey even more. King Kai, Bubbles and Gregory were still shaking in their boots, waiting for the Spice Boys to make their first moves.
"Let me at 'em" Sancho said, opting to make the first hit. He fell short though, about twenty feet short. The gravity on King Kai's planet was fifteen time that of Earth's and Sancho was caught off guard by it. He slammed his nose into the ground, smushing his face into the dirt. The tension slipping, King Kai managed to let out a small chuckle.
"What's wrong Sancho?" the white haired Migi asked. The swordsman stepped forward to help out his friend but was brought to his knees by the weight of the gravity on his body.
"This place," Sancho said grimacing, "It's messing with my body. It feels like I weigh a couple tons!"
"I'm beginning to see what you mean," Ginger said as he struggled just to keep his arms up in the air.
'This is great!' King Kai thought, ' These guys aren't used to this planet's gravity like we are! Maybe we won't need Goku's help after all. But that still isn't an excuse for him not being here!' the venerable teacher of the Kaio technique tried once again to reach his old student, but he couldn't get through, 'Dang! Goku must be eating! I'll never get his attention now! Well, I guess there is only one thing I can do . . .'
"Gregory, Bubbles, we can take these guys," King Kai said as he rolled up his sleeves.
"Are you serious King Kai?" Gregory the grasshopper asked. He was a bit weary of his boss' confidence, but Bubbles was already to fight to. The chimpanzee raised his hands into the air and pumped them furiously.
"JUST DO IT!" Bubbles and King Kai charged blindly into battle, their legs a blur across the ground as they closed the gap between their competitors almost immediately. The bulky Sancho swung hard at King Kai, missing drastically. His fist pounded the ground, leaving his left side open to attack. King Kai ran as hard as he could, ramming his head into the strongman of the Spice Boys at full speed. Sancho looked stunned as he lurched forward, and tears formed at the corners of his eyes.
"How could he have . . . he's an old fat geezer-" Sancho was quickly reminded of the situation when Bubbles smacked him in the face with his pulsating palms of fury. He tumbled back uncontrollably and landed on his back. Bubbles jumped onto Sancho's stomach and continued his assault. The force of the monkey's body was equivalent to getting run over by a truck, and each time his paws landed, Sancho was frozen in pain.
"This doesn't look good Ginger," Migi cried out as his buddy got pulverized by a simian.
"I can't even hold my swords in my hands," Ginger said with much strain in his voice.
"Ha ha!" Gregory yelled in triumph when he flew into Ginger and laid him out on the ground. He hovered over his enemy's flattened body and charged up for his next attack. The grasshopper focused all his energy into his body and began to glow light blue, "Stop this next attack if you can weirdo!"
"Wha?" Migi replied, gripping onto his longsword, "You little punk, I'll slice you down to size!" The bright blue insect soon was enveloped by his charged energy and he zoomed off into the green monster's direction. Migi's sword whistled through the air as he slashed madly to hit Gregory, but the grasshopper was just too fast. Swinging the sword was no easy task either. Each time he swung it felt like he was holding onto a sledgehammer. Gregory suddenly stopped in front of Migi's face and stuck out his tongue at him, "I got you know you bug!"
Migi put his back into his next attack and stabbed down at his foe. Gregory easily dodged it and Migi's sword became stuck deep in the ground. He pulled at it with all his strength, but it wouldn't give. It was stuck. The mystic grasshopper took advantage and upper cut the dark green menace with his most powerful punch. It knocked Migi out cold. The pupils in his eyes were swirling around in a pain- induced daze.
"Good job guys! I totally forgot about the gravity on this planet. When you get down to it, these guys weren't much more than pushovers!" King Kai snorted like a pig and laughed with his boys.
"These Spice Boys were nothing to sneeze at, huh King Kai?" Gregory delivered his punch line perfectly, but King Kai was quiet, "Umm . . King Kai?"
"MWA HA HA!! SNEEZE AT . . . I get it Gregory! Good one!"
"Ooo ooo AHH AHH!" Bubbles chimed in.
A sudden breeze of air blew past the three and shut them up quickly. A dark shadow fell over them as the light was blocked out.
'Oh no! We let our guard down and they got the upper hand on us!' King Kai awaited the deathblow but instead a hand was placed on his shoulder. Goku stood over everybody and smiled.
"You called King Kai?" the kind-hearted warrior asked, wiping a block of rice from his cheek.
"Don't you ever sneak up on me like that again GOKU! DO YOU HEAR ME!" King Kai exploded, causing Goku to step back.
"Sorry . . . it's just that," The noble warrior stopped in mid sentence when he saw three unconscious bodies laying not to far away, " Sancho, Ginger, and Migi? King Kai? What are they doing here? I thought they were down in . . .
"That's what I was trying to tell you Goku but you didn't listen! Look over there!" King Kai pointed the still smoking hole in Snakeway, and the downward funnel of yellow clouds into HELL, "It just happened like that. Hundreds of evil beings escaped and flew off towards King Yamma's place. Luckily these three weak ones were the only ones that saw us, but Cell, Frieza, and his father all escaped! It would have been horrible if they had seen us!"
"If they escaped . . . then Pikon, he-"
"Yes Goku, I fear the worst has happened to him. But you have to look at the bigger picture! If these evil deeds continue to spread unfaced, the entire universe could be in grave danger," King Kai explained to his former student.
"King Kai, you should go to the Grand Kai's place. This planet isn't safe anymore," Goku said in his most serious tone. His past was out there somewhere, looking for him no doubt. They would stop at nothing to find him, even if that means wiping millions of lives from existence. NO! He couldn't let that happen!
"Fine . . . but watch yourself Goku! I wouldn't try to take them on all by yourself. Sure you are strong, but there are too many of them! You'd be best to go searching for these guys with somebody else. They defeated Pikon somehow, so these batch of villains are different than those you've met before Goku. Trust me, you don't know what is waiting for you." King Kai pleaded with him as best he could.
The stern look on Goku's face quickly changed to smile, "I have just the right person for the job . . ."

Chapter 9 should be out sooner than this one took me to get out. I had midterms, projects, and a bunch of other things to get done over the last month. Sorry . . . Plus new DBZ is flooding me with new ideas, so that is a plus.
King Kai's New Planet
"It sure was nice of the Grand Kai to grant you a new planet King Kai!" the golden grasshopper known as Gregory said in his usual shrill voice.
"OOhh!! Oooo ooohhh!" Bubbles, King Kai's right hand monkey chimed in.
"Yeah, sure was! And this new planet is bigger than any of the other Kai's planets!" King Kai chuckled, "If they didn't like me before, they sure don't like me now!

"You two, they're still coming!" King Kai shouted at the top of his lungs. The monkey and grasshopper stopped their quarrel and turned their heads in unison as the Spice Boy's landed.

King Kai cringed at his words. He remained quiet but used his telepathic skill to call for help, "Goku! Otherworld is in trouble! We need your help! GOKU!"
Spirit World Check-in Entrance
"I'm bored," Cell said, squirming in the oversized seat of King Yamma's, "This can't be the extent of Otherworld. Where did Pikon come from? Where is everybody else?"
"Maybe one of those slobbering fools knows, "Cooler said, crossing his arms, "Hey you!"
A short red demon stopped in his tracks and shook, "M-m-me sir?"
"Yes you, get over here!" Cooler pointed to the floor right in front of him.

"Ha ha ha ha. Do you really expect me to believe that?" Cooler's head jerked back and forth as he laughed. He suddenly became super serious and summoned a blue orb of energy in his free hand, "Now you better tell me, or you can say bye bye to existence!"
The light blue ball of Ki flickered and grew, causing the air around it to pop and crack, "OKAY! OKAY! I'll tell you! Just please don't hurt me!" the demon cried out as he began to sob, "We have flights departing daily from Terminal B to the Grand Kai's planet, but you need the permission of King Yamma to lift off!"
"Heh, we don't plan on using a plane, do we Cell?" MetaCooler asked. Cell smirked and shook his head in agreement, "We'll find our own way there. You just tell us and I might let you live."

"The clock is ticking . . . 5 seconds and you're dead. 5 . . . 4 . . . 3 . . . 2 . . ."
"IT'S THAT WAY! About 10,000 miles northwest," the weak willed demon screamed as he pointed in the general direction, "But you can't make it there without a plane! So this information is worthless to you!"
"Is that so?" Cooler disappeared instantly. He reappeared a few moments later with a smirk on his face.
"So?" Cell asked.
"He wasn't lying. The place was chock full of prissy heroes," the metal tyrant said.
"Ah ha . . . then the invasion will begin," Cell proclaimed.
"Not without us!" Nappa screamed as he powered down and smacked a demon in the face.
"You weren't planning on leaving your father behind, where you son?" King Cold said to Cooler.
Cooler looked at his father in his transformed state. He was so weak . . . he had to power-up to defeat that puny Pikon? It was embarrassing to know that he was related to him!
"Of course I wasn't . . . who's coming with us?"
"All of us," Raditz said, stepping forward, "If you have a problem with that then too bad. Our toes have been stepped on for too long. Everybody must pay!"

"Okay monkeys, grab on." Cell ordered the saiyans.
"Little brother, father, and everybody else, you're with me," Cooler said reluctantly. The dark hearted warriors latched on the person before them and readied to be instantly transmitted to the Great Kai's planet.
"Before we go, there is one more thing," Cell smirked, looking over to the demon that had told Cooler where to go, "Never hold out on us again!" He screamed at the top of his lungs and shot a small beam in his direction. The weak lesser demon tried to dodge it, but it met him with burning force and blew threw the wall he was standing in front of.

Back on King Kai's Planet
"Oh yeah, you're going down old man!" Ginger screamed, trying to intimidate his prey even more. King Kai, Bubbles and Gregory were still shaking in their boots, waiting for the Spice Boys to make their first moves.
"Let me at 'em" Sancho said, opting to make the first hit. He fell short though, about twenty feet short.

The force of the monkey's body was equivalent to getting run over by a truck, and each time his paws landed, Sancho was frozen in pain.
"This doesn't look good Ginger," Migi cried out as his buddy got pulverized by a simian.
"I can't even hold my swords in my hands," Ginger said with much strain in his voice.
"Ha ha!" Gregory yelled in triumph when he flew into Ginger and laid him out on the ground. He hovered over his enemy's flattened body and charged up for his next attack. The grasshopper focused all his energy into his body and began to glow light blue, "Stop this next attack if you can weirdo!"
"Wha?" Migi replied, gripping onto his longsword, "You little punk, I'll slice you down to size!" The bright blue insect soon was enveloped by his charged energy and he zoomed off into the green monster's direction. Migi's sword whistled through the air as he slashed madly to hit Gregory, but the grasshopper was just too fast. Swinging the sword was no easy task either. Each time he swung it felt like he was holding onto a sledgehammer. Gregory suddenly stopped in front of Migi's face and stuck out his tongue at him, "I got you know you bug!"
Migi put his back into his next attack and stabbed down at his foe. Gregory easily dodged it and Migi's sword became stuck deep in the ground. He pulled at it with all his strength, but it wouldn't give. It was stuck. The mystic grasshopper took advantage and upper cut the dark green menace with his most powerful punch. It knocked Migi out cold. The pupils in his eyes were swirling around in a pain- induced daze.
"Good job guys! I totally forgot about the gravity on this planet. When you get down to it, these guys weren't much more than pushovers!" King Kai snorted like a pig and laughed with his boys.
"These Spice Boys were nothing to sneeze at, huh King Kai?" Gregory delivered his punch line perfectly, but King Kai was quiet, "Umm . . King Kai?"
"MWA HA HA!! SNEEZE AT . . . I get it Gregory! Good one!"
"Ooo ooo AHH AHH!" Bubbles chimed in.
A sudden breeze of air blew past the three and shut them up quickly. A dark shadow fell over them as the light was blocked out.
'Oh no! We let our guard down and they got the upper hand on us!' King Kai awaited the deathblow but instead a hand was placed on his shoulder. Goku stood over everybody and smiled.
"You called King Kai?" the kind-hearted warrior asked, wiping a block of rice from his cheek.
"Don't you ever sneak up on me like that again GOKU! DO YOU HEAR ME!" King Kai exploded, causing Goku to step back.
"Sorry . . . it's just that," The noble warrior stopped in mid sentence when he saw three unconscious bodies laying not to far away, " Sancho, Ginger, and Migi? King Kai? What are they doing here? I thought they were down in . . .
"That's what I was trying to tell you Goku but you didn't listen! Look over there!" King Kai pointed the still smoking hole in Snakeway, and the downward funnel of yellow clouds into HELL, "It just happened like that. Hundreds of evil beings escaped and flew off towards King Yamma's place. Luckily these three weak ones were the only ones that saw us, but Cell, Frieza, and his father all escaped! It would have been horrible if they had seen us!"
"If they escaped . . . then Pikon, he-"
"Yes Goku, I fear the worst has happened to him. But you have to look at the bigger picture! If these evil deeds continue to spread unfaced, the entire universe could be in grave danger," King Kai explained to his former student.
"King Kai, you should go to the Grand Kai's place. This planet isn't safe anymore," Goku said in his most serious tone. His past was out there somewhere, looking for him no doubt. They would stop at nothing to find him, even if that means wiping millions of lives from existence. NO! He couldn't let that happen!
"Fine . . . but watch yourself Goku! I wouldn't try to take them on all by yourself. Sure you are strong, but there are too many of them! You'd be best to go searching for these guys with somebody else. They defeated Pikon somehow, so these batch of villains are different than those you've met before Goku. Trust me, you don't know what is waiting for you." King Kai pleaded with him as best he could.
The stern look on Goku's face quickly changed to smile, "I have just the right person for the job . . ."

I didn't talk about most of the androids in this chapter, but they were in the group that left with Cell and Cooler. They'll make their entrance soon enough.
I'm getting bored of everbody not fighting. I bet you are too. I'm going to speed things up from now on to keep both my interest and yours. Chapter 9 should be out sooner than this one took me to get out. I had midterms, projects, and a bunch of other things to get done over the last month. Sorry . . . Plus new DBZ is flooding me with new ideas, so that is a plus.
