Unexpected Fate
Chapter 11
CMG: Now for the moment you've been waiting for, Bardock is going to fight along with Goku to defeat Freeza! (fans cheer) As usual, I don't own anyone from Dragon Ball Z, so quit asking! I only own Scrix and Karis, who are right now cleaning Freeza's Torchure Cham... (Scrix smacks CMG) I'm kidding! Well, on with the story!
--------------------------------------------
Unimaginable power flowed through Bardock's body as he felt the Super Saiya-jin strength inside him. His instincts were sharper and his whole body felt whole after 30 years of suffering. He was reunited with his son through the help of Scrix and Karis, only to be almost separated again when Piccolo was injured and Krillin was killed. Now, he was again with his son and was wanting his revenge on Freeza for killing billions of innocent lives.
"Are you crazy?" yelled Bardock. "He doesn't deserve a chance to live! He deserves to feel pain and to die a painful death."
"Dad, he can change," said Goku. "It's not like he's been born a monster to begin with."
"His ancestors were just like him and never felt pity for what they've done to alien races by causing intergalatic wars, killing lives, and imprisoning rare warriors who show much talent and use them to conquer worlds," snapped Bardock. "He isn't going to change. Not at all."
"Are you two finished or should I be your Counselor of Death," said Freeza.
"Shut-up!" barked both Goku and Bardock at the same time.
"Well, this planet will explode in 2 minutes," said Freeza. (Oy! I really am not going to go on saying the stupid 5 minutes joke in this story since this isn't my humor fic. If you're interested in reading it, be my guest, but I have to warn you that I did censor some cussing and added a bunch of nonsense in the story.)
"He's right," said Bardock. "Let's just kill that annoying bastard and just get the hell out of here!"
"I still want to spare his life," said Goku.
"Well, get used to killing because you're a Saiya-jin warrior," said Bardock as he flies at Freeza, giving him a good elbow jab in his stomach. (Hee hee. I think that would hurt anyone, wouldn't you think?) Freeza tries to hit Bardock but his left fist is caught by Goku's right hand as he hurtles Freeza behind his head.
*We must use the Dragon Balls to move everyone, except for Freeza off of this planet,* said a voice as Bardock and Goku both heard it at the same time and were almost hit by Freeza's tail.
*I am thankful that you're planet has agreed to do this for us,* said Guru's voice. Goku and Bardock are both dodging Freeza's punches.
*No, change the wish,* said Goku's voice.
*Same here,* said Bardock.
*Huh?* said the voice. *Goku! Who's with you and what in the world aren't you agreeing with me?*
*Listen, I don't have anytime to explain, King Kai,* said Goku after he and Bardock managed to avoid the blasts that Freeza was firing. *Wish everyone except for me, my father Bardock and Freeza back to Earth.*
*Are you mad?* said King Kai. *There's no time to-*
*Just make the wish, you fool,* said Bardock as he manages to land a punch at Freeza's face. *I've waited a long time for this moment to avenge my people and you're not going to ruin it.*
*I'll hunt him down!* said Goku.
*Oy! I suppose you've met your father, Goku,* said King Kai. *He's really a tempered man, isn't he?*
*Yeah, but he's a great guy once you get to know him,* said Goku.
*Fine, Guru, that will be our wish,* said King Kai.
*Thank you,* said Goku and Bardock.
"Are you two going to fight at your max or are you giving up?" said Freeza as he taunted the two Super Saiya-jins to fight him some more.
"We're not done yet," said Bardock. "We were just thinking."
"Of what?" said Freeza.
"Oh, you'll see," said Bardock as he chucked.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*
About a minute later, Porunga was back and Vegeta arrives as well as Dende as Freeza tries to get his wish.
"Damn dragon, grant me immortality!" cried Freeza despritely.
Dende spoke the wish in Namekian as Freeza aims a blast at him. He disappears and the blast hits the ground, making a creater. Vegeta arrives, and in delight, he sees Goku and Bardock.
"Well, it looks like Bardock and Kakarot both became Super Saiya-jins," said Vegeta in delight. "I owe you this blast to hell, don't I, Freeza!"
Before Vegeta could fire, he disappears. Freeza is confused as he freaks out.
"I thought I killed him," said Freeza. "And that little Namek, too!"
"Surprise Freeza," said Bardock. "It seems like you've lost it."
"We had the Dragon Balls on Earth," said Goku. "We used our Dragon Balls to revive everyone you killed on this planet. Then, our second wish was..."
"You've got to be fucking kidding with me," said Freeza. "You sneaky little monkeys! You'll be dead a thousand times when I'm done with you!"
"Right," said Bardock flatly. "Anyway, the second wish was to wish everyone, except for us to leave this planet. So, you're screwed."
Freeza was beyond pissed off and starts trying to attack Bardock and Goku as they managed to smack Freeza around easily. Eventually, Goku stopped attacking, followed by Bardock.
"It's done," said Goku.
"It's done?" said Freeza. "What do you mean?"
"I'm done tearing your pride with my father's help," said Goku. "It would be useless to continue fighting and you've lost. You're not even at 100% anymore and are no longer considered an honorable fighter. You've been beaten, by a monkey."
"And the 'golden warrior' Clive warned you about earlier on the spaceship when she read my mind," said Bardock.
"Damn you!" said Freeza.
"Let's just kill him and get off this fucken planet," said Bardock. "We don't have enough time to play anymore!"
"Dad, I'm not going to kill him," said Goku.
"Are you insane?" said Bardock. "He's killed your mother, Vegeta, the entire Saiya-jin race and Krillin!"
Goku lost it. He flew at Bardock and smacked him in the face. Bardock was shocked that Goku actually did that to him. His own father.
"Dad, I know what I'm doing," said Goku. "I don't want to become a cold-blooded murderer like he has."
"But you'll be avenging everyone's deaths," said Bardock.
Freeza didn't give Goku enough time to think as he sent a thin disk at him that barely cut his head off. However, Goku moved just in time for it to cut the left side of his cheek as Bardock gasps. Goku floated there, angry.
"You fucking idiot," said Goku. "I was offering you another chance to live, but now I'm going to kill you."
'About time,' thought Bardock. 'Yes! Our race will be avenged!'
Goku starts powering up as he sends a fast blast at Freeza. He dodges the blast, but the blast managed to make Freeza run into his own attack and get cut in half. (I know it's a bit off, but it's my fanfic folks!) Bardock and Goku both powered up their best attacks as Freeza sat there weak and pathic.
"P-please... d-d-don't... k-kill... m-me," said Freeza very weakly.
"Don't listen to him, son," said Bardock as the energy reached it's peak. "He doesn't deserve to live. He's never felt remorse for others in his life."
"F-forgive... me..." moaned Freeza.
"Dad, he's helpless," said Goku as his blast faded away. "He cannot do any harm to anyone now since he's like this."
"You have no idea what will happen if you let him go," screamed Bardock as he remembered how much torchure he's done to other planets and galaxies. "He would be rebuilt by King Cold's men or cloned to be used to destroy more planets, including Earth. Do you want to make that risk?"
Goku sighed. 'He's got a point,' thought Goku. 'He could return somehow and kill again and...' "Let's blow this place."
"I'm glad you've seen it my way finally," said Bardock as they fired a blast at Freeza's upper half of his body. He screamed as he disappeared in the blast that both Bardock and Goku created. An explosion is seen and after the blast, water flooded the land that was destroyed as the two Super Saiya-jins fly off to escape the planet. They flew until they reached Freeza's spaceship and ran into the control room.
"This ship is trashed," said Bardock. "We might not be able to get off the planet with this thing."
"Come on you stupid piece of shit," said Goku as he tries to turn on the ship. "We need to get the fuck off this planet!"
"It's no use," said Bardock. "We're done for!"
"No, there's got to be a... wait! Look!" said Goku as he points at the spacepods that were falling. "Let's book it!"
"Right!" said Bardock. "I just hope we end up in the same planet this time around."
The two escape and fly into the spacepods that took them off of Namek before it exploded.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*
The spacepods crashed miles away from each other. Bardock was in the desert when he was found by some Yardratians and was taken to their village to heal while Goku was taken to another village to recover. The two were separated, but were at least on the same planet.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*
'Huh?' thought Goku as he slowly woke up. 'Where am I? Where's my father?'
Goku sat up, but regretted it immediately as pain ran down his back. He was alone in a room where he noticed that his father wasn't there. He laid back down as he sighed in defeat.
'Dad, please be alright,' thought Goku.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Bardock was starting to awaken slowly as he heard his son's voice in his head.
*Dad, please be alright,* said Goku.
'Kakarot,' thought Bardock. 'Where are we this time?'
*Ah, you're awake,* said a voice inside Bardock's head. *I'm so glad you've finally awakened.*
"Huh?" said Bardock as he looks around. "Where are you?"
"Right down here," said the voice as Bardock looked down at a Yardratian from his bedside. "Welcome. You're on the planet, Yardrat. My brothers found you unconscious and injured in the desert when your spacepod landed on this planet. A nearby village also found someone and another spacepod."
"Tell me, does that person look like me?" said Bardock. "I need to find him!"
"Calm down," said the Yardratian. "You still need to recover for a few more days until you can walk. The other man had it a bit worse than you since he fell from the spacepod. You just were found lying face down several feet away from your spacepod when the door came open on the surface."
"What's your name?" said Bardock.
"My name is Prest," said the Yardratian. "Once you get better, you can see the other person. For now, you must rest."
"Don't you guys have a healer?" said Bardock.
"Not currently," said Prest. "The one we have vanished with a few other men while hunting herbs in the woods. We sent the others to find them, but they came back empty handed. If you are willing to find them, then we can spare a healing vial to you. It won't restore you to full health though."
"Then let me have it so I can find your leader so I can visit my son afterwards," snapped Bardock. "Now!"
*~*~*~*~*~*~*
'Hmph,' said Bardock as he walks around wearing the Yardratian clothing Prest spared for him. 'These clothes are very strange. I need to find that leader though if I'm going to find my son.'
Bardock trekked into the woods as he used his Saiya-jin instincts to find the leader. He marked the trees so that he wouldn't get lost by burning signs into them. As he went farther into the forest, he noticed that the path kept circling around and around as he soon found himself lost in the woods. So, he blew the side of the path up and continued to trek on after finding himself there the 14th time.
'I'm starting to turn into Kakarot,' thought Bardock as he mused. 'I wonder if those Yardratians had to give him a shot yet?'
The thoughts were forgotten when he found some strange soft golden glowing herbs on the ground. Picking them, he put them in his pocket as he continued to walk through the forest. As he went farther, he found a mysterious shrine where he saw some strange pictures on the wall. Soon, he climbed the stairs and found himself in a strange room where he found an unconscious Yardratian who seemed injured. As Bardock picked him up, he heard a growl emit through the temple.
'Oh great,' thought Bardock. 'I knew this wasn't going to be an easy task.'
There in front of the exit stood a giant feathered dragon. The feathers were black as night as his feathered wings seem to resemble a cross between a bats and a birds. Fire emitted from the dragon's mouth as Bardock set the man against the wall and powered up. He still felt weak, but he began to fight the dragon. The dragon's fire burned Bardock's new clothing, but he managed to keep an energy shield around himself as he punched the dragon in the snout and tied the dragon's mouth shut with a piece of his left shirt sleeve that almost got burned off by the fire. As the dragon struggled to free it's snout, Bardock blew the dragon up and left the tomb with the unconscious Yardratian. On his way back, he felt something different in his heart as he managed to carry the Yardratian back to the village.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"You've brought our healer back," said Prest. "I suppose the others didn't survive though. That's a shame."
"I found these while I was in the woods," said Bardock as he pulled out the strange glowing herbs.
"Those herbs are the healing herbs we needed for quite some time now," said Prest. "I'm studying the ability to heal, so I'll make a potion for Ethr here so he can heal your son."
"Thank you," said Bardock as he returns to the other room to lay down. 'What is this new emotion that I'm feeling that made me regret killing that monster?'
--------------------------------------------
CMG: Hee hee. Poor Bardock. He's feeling some new feelings. I guess he's starting to feel a bit soft, don't you think? I'm still trying to keep him in character, but it's starting to waver again. So, what did you think of him fighting against Freeza? I was pretty tired after writing this pretty late at night and... (Scrix falls asleep) I guess you're right. (Yawns) Later, peeps!
