Chapter One
Warning for story: Violence, language
an: Please review! It really inspires me to type more chaps! Also, there will be a few fighting scenes and if you really don't like them just go through them quickly until you get to an important part or something. And if you do like fighting scenes then good! There's a big one in the next chapter! Anyway, thanks for reading and reviewing! Here's another story by me, Strawberrychan! ^_^
~~DBZ~~DBZ~~
"ChiChi, can I have the twinkies? Puh-leeeease?" Goku begged.
"Fine," ChiChi rolled her eyes and handed them to him. He seemed to swallow it directly more than chew it. ChiChi and another girl named Bulma sweatdropped.
"Goku, you just had your last snack fifteen minutes ago!" Bulma said.
"But we haven't had lunch!" Goku said.
Bulma was nineteen with beautiful light blue hair that reached a few inches past her shoulders and big blue eyes. She was 5'8 with a beautiful figure. She wore blue jean shorts, white sneakers, a white tanktop with a capsule corp jacket over it. Strangely, a brown tail waved behind her. Goku was sixteen with wild, unruly hair that shot out in several directions. He had gotten taller since he had been 12, but his full growth spurt hadn't fully kicked in yet. The cute, sixteen-year old girl that had had the twinkies was a few inches taller than him, but that wouldn't last long because Goku was getting taller every day. Like Bulma, a brown, furry, tail waved behind the boy. Goku wore a simple orange gi with a strange symbol on the back or if, and he had dark blue boots on. ChiChi wore khakis with a red tanktop.
"So, what do we have on our agenda today?" ChiChi asked.
"We could spar!" Goku suggested. All he ever thought about was food, training, and...oh his friends of course! Not to mention sleeping...
"This is our relaxing day, Goku," ChiChi reminded him.
"Training IS relaxing," Goku said, "well to me it is."
"We could shop," Bulma suggested.
"That's a great idea," ChiChi agreed.
"Nooo way am I doing that. You guys can go on without me. I'll go train with Krillen or something," Goku said.
"Where is Krillen, anyway?" ChiChi asked.
"I think he went on a date with his new girlfriend, Marron," Bulma said.
"/Her?/ I've met her. She is such a ditz," ChiChi said.
"I didn't think she was that bad," Goku said.
"You don't think anyone is bad. 'Everyone has some good in their heart,'" Bulma said. "And then they end up trying to kill you!"
ChiChi giggled. "But isn't that one of the wonderful things about Goku? He's sweet, strong...and so brave!"
Goku blushed. "Why, uh, thanks ChiChi!"
"That reminds me of someone...where's Yamcha?" Bulma asked.
"Geesh, almost the whole gang is busy today," Chi said mostly to herself.
"I hope he remembered the double date," Bulma said hopefully.
"Huh?" Goku blinked.
"Oh, you, ChiChi, Yamcha, and me going out for dinner later, Goku" Bulma said to him.
"Me an' Chi aren't dating," Goku said as he tilted his head to the side in a confused matter.
"Well, you and her flirt so much it's about time one of you stop being shy and just ask each other out! Come on!"
"That's not true!" ChiChi objected with a slightly red face. Goku nodded in agreement.
"Don't be so shy, guys! Loosen up," Bulma laughed.
"I have an idea! Let's pack a picnic and go to the woods! And maybe we could spar after that," ChiChi said.
"I'm in!" Goku said.
"Fine with me. Let's go to my house (Capsule Corp.) and get the food. I have tons of it!" Bulma said.
~~dbz~~dbz~~
"King Vegeta, we're going to land on Earth in exactly seven hours," a soldier bowed and then stood up.
"You think I didn't know that, fool?" the King growled.
"I-I only followed my commander's orders, sire," the soldier stammered. "I didn't know. I-I'm sorry. It won't happen again."
"Of course it won't happen again," and with that King Vegeta threw an energy blast at him and he was incinerated. "What are you looking at?!" he barked at the soldiers near the door. They quickly turned away. He smirked.
He got up from his throne and exited the room. The ship he was on was enormous with hundreds of rooms and many soldiers on board. There was one other ship following him with about a hundred soldiers in it, and it wasn't as big. Vegeta was handsome, 5'11, and twenty-one years old with black flame-styled hair and cold eyes. He was the King of the saiyans, and he was the most ruthless and merciless of them all. A dark blue cape was on him, along with black armor and a gold V on the left side of the armor.
The throne room of the ship contained gold and silver. The soldier's rooms were medium-sized, but if you had a higher rank of level than others than you'd have a bigger room. There wasn't much in the rooms, but a few belongings, a bed, space just to relax, a dresser, and a bathroom they shared with the person next to them, but the bathrooms were pretty well- kept and cleaned by the slaves. The elites had the biggest rooms, which had a lot of space. And some soldiers bunked with others in a room, and that was usually the lower ranks. The ship was big with a big V on the outside door and dark blue, silver, black and some other dark colors on the outside exterior.
The halls seemed to never end in the ship and the halls were mainly white, and black, and it seemed to give off a rather dark feeling, much like the rest of the ship. There were numbers by the doors so the soldiers could identify the rooms. On the east side of the ship there were most of the training rooms. The slaves quarters was mostly near the bottom of the ship and they got the worst rooms; however, the whores were given much better rooms and they were in the middle level on the far west side of the ship. The throne room was in the middle of the ship, and the place where they controlled where the ship went, the control room, was located in the front middle. It was a large space, too. The science division was on the back left of the ship, and that is where the King was headed. The scientists had fair-sized rooms.
"Bardock," the king said.
"Hello, Vegeta-sama," Bardock bowed with respect.
"Do we have everything? The ki collars? And those other gadgets?" he demanded.
"Yes," Bardock said.
"It's not like we need those gadgets for this weak species, but you can never be too sure. Hmph...That is all I need to know," Vegeta turned to leave but-
"Excuse me, sire?"
"What?" Vegeta asked gruffly, not bothering to turn around to see the low- class soldier.
"Excuse me for asking, but could you not have sent someone to ask rather than coming yourself?"
"I could have," Vegeta mused. "But I don't want to sit on my ass all day like my father did. Besides, I was heading to the training room, anyway."
And after saying that, he exited the room to train.
~~dbz~~dbz~~
"We should do that more often!" Goku said. "Food and training! Two of my favorite things!"
They were back at Capsule Corp. because they had to put away the things they had used. Namely the blanket, and some baskets. Also, they washed off too from their training. It had been nearly six in a half hours since they had left. Just then, Bulma's father Mr. Briefs entered the room with their cat, Scratch, on his shoulder.
"Bulma, dear!" Mr. Briefs said. "I have just found out - from my lab - that there are alien spaceships heading this way!"
"Well, while we're waiting for our guests, why don't we have some tea?" Mrs. Briefs suggested as she came in with her normal, happy attitude.
"No thanks, mom...But I can't feel their energy levels at all!" Bulma said.
"I think there is something on their ship that blocks out the energy signatures, dear," Mr. Briefs said.
"We have to get the others! When will they arrive?" Goku asked.
"Aliens? Are you saying /aliens/ are coming?!" ChiChi shrieked.
Bulma nodded, yes, to her.
"Maybe they'll just want to make peace..." ChiChi said hopefully.
"Mr. Briefs...how many ships are there?" Goku asked in a serious voice.
"Two...and they're pretty big...." he answered.
"This is horrible," Mr. Briefs sighed and looked at the cat on his shoulder, "isn't it Scratch?"
"Meow," it replied and then rubbed against his neck. He gave it a pat.
"I'll go and get the others," Goku said. "You guys stay here and I'll bring them here."
"Right," Bulma nodded.
Twenty-five minutes later the whole Z gang - Bulma, Goku, ChiChi, the blonde-headed Launch, Krillen, Tien, Choatzu, and Yamcha - were all in the Capsule Corp lawn.
"Dad, where'll they land?" Bulma asked.
"I'm not sure...my computer is somehow not working right..." Mr. Briefs frowned.
"Any idea?" Krillen asked.
"Well, the only thing I can get on the computer is somewhere near a desert....but I'm not entirely sure which because before I could find out the satellites were destroyed."
~~dbz~~dbz~~
The ships landed loudly on the Earth's surface loudly. King Vegeta stepped out of his ship first and stood in front of his group of men as they assembled in front of him, bowing, then standing back up. The saiyans were tall, dark, and mean-looking. That's what the earthlings would say. They were stronger than humans, and their technology was advanced, but they didn't have some of the things the humans had. One technological thing was a device that had allowed them to learn the languages of the planet. There were about four hundred soldiers and that was all that was needed.
"SAIYANS!" Vegeta yelled to them. "You are here to demolish this planet! Tear it down to peices! I don't care how you do it; HOWEVER I want some slaves! Make sure you take the valuable, or if there is any on this mudball planet, humans. If you do not bring a sufficient slave I may even kill you if I feel the need! I want two hundred and fifty of those humans! One hundred women and one hundred and fifty men! I might not keep them all, but that is what I want for now! LEADERS OF THE GROUPS, make sure you manage them well! YOU'RE DISMISSED!"
The saiyan soldiers took off in different directions, following the leaders. There were about 40 different groups with ten people in them. Vegeta watched them leave and then took off in the air himself. It was time to have some fun on this planet.
~~dbz~~dbz~~
"We interrupt this program for an important news broadcast! Tall, dark- looking men with tails are creating havoc among our cities! Hundreds of them! They are going to destroy our planet and already they've killed so many innocents! Make sure you lock your doors, stay hidden! The Earth's armies are trying to team up to defeat them, but it's hopeless! These tailed men shoot strange blasts from their palms that destroy cities! And -" the new person stopped with his eyes wide as he looked to his right. "NOO!!" and then the TV went staticy and your couldn't see anything.
"People with tails...?" Launch repeated as she clicked the tv off.
"Why..." Goku said with his fists clenched. "Why would anybody do this?!"
"How are we going to defeat a whole army of them?" Krillen asked.
"Tails?" Bulma said in surprise. "I have a tail...so does Goku."
"Hmm..." Mr. Briefs said.
"Dad? Why is it I have a tail, anyway?" Bulma asked.
"I don't know, but I used to have one when I was younger..." Mr. Briefs said. "My dad left me and my mom took care of me and when I did ask she'd just shake her head and leave the room...I'm not sure why though..."
"I can't just stand here and watch the TV!! I want to fight!" Goku said.
He ran out the door and everyone, but Bulma and Launch followed.
"I have to fight, dad...mom," Bulma said. "Goodbye..."
"Oh, honey!" Mrs. Briefs hugged her tightly.
Mr. Briefs did the same.
"We love you...," Mr. Briefs said.
"Good luck, Bulma," she heard Launch say.
"Goodbye, Launch."
Bulma took one last look and bolted out of the room and followed Goku's energy signature. He was already out of the city! That was fast! She took off to the air and followed his energy signal. Just then she stopped and looked behind her. Big power levels were coming to the city. She slowly backed up. Bulma gulped. *I wanted a challenge earlier, but...this...is too much!* She went to the edge of the town where they were going to end up coming. About ten powerlevels were heading this way. She was hiding her power level, and she knew she was stronger than all of them, but...there were ten of them! Could she take them at the same time?
And she saw ten, dark, tailed figures come into view. She had put on her dark blue gi and her tail was covered by a black belt. She didn't want them to see it. They stopped in front of her, and she could tell that the leader was the one in front.
"Well, well, we've come upon a human who can fly," the leader said in amusement.
"A weak one at that," another said from behind him. She saw the scouters over their eyes. They didn't know she was hiding her power level though. "But quite a looker.." Bulma glared at his lusftul gaze.
"Three of you men go to the other side of the city," the leader ordered.
And three men left, leaving seven men for Bulma to deal with. Bulma had trained all of her life, it was in her blood, and she was very powerful. Goku was a little stronger than her, and they were the strongest out of all of them. ChiChi could fly, and so could the others. Launch couldn't fly, so she had stayed in Capsule corp. with her parents. And Bulma felt the Z fighters ki going back to the city, and Goku had gotten far away from the city, but he was coming back.
"Move out of our way and maybe you won't get hurt. After that you can be the ship's new whore," one said, then smirked.
Bulma glared. "You'll have to get through me to even to try and destroy this city."
"Feisty, eh?" the leader chuckled. "I like that in a woman."
"Stop thinking about your damn hormones and fight me already Or are you just too afraid?" Bulma said.
"Afraid?" the leader laughed. "You wish. This'll be a peice of cake. You men can watch me as I defeat her. I'll be so nice and you can have to first punch, girl."
"My pleasure," Bulma growled.
She dissapeared from view and hit him right in the jaw. He flew backwards and into a building. He slowly recovered and appearered back, wiping the blood from his lip.
"Stronger than you look," the leader said. "But this time I'm on my guard."
"Power up to your max," Bulma said.
"Okay, you asked for it," he smirked.
His power level was twenty thousand. Bulma raised an eyebrow.
"Go ahead and power up," the leader said.
With a yell Bulma powered up to thirty thousand, much to their amazement. And that wasn't even half of her true power. Bulma easily went against him, but then...
"ARE YOU JUST GOING TO STAND THERE OR ARE YOU GOING TO HELP ME?!" he yelled at them.
Bulma vaguely felt the other Z fighters fight the other 3 men on the other side of the city. She felt Goku heading back, but not yet here. And then, eight fighters rushed at her. They powered up to their maxes and Bulma didn't have enough time to power up more. Their punches connected, along with their kicks. She felt herself go weak. But then...they stopped. She opened her eyes and was happy to see Goku punch leader in the jaw and the others watching in surprise.
"LEAVE HER ALONE!" Goku yelled, enraged.
Bulma took this time to power up. She powered up to her maximum which was seventy thousand. Goku did the same and his was seventy-three thousand. And then, they fought. But on the other side of the city the two could feel that the others needed their help. They finished off the eight and then headed toward the other side.
~~dbz~~dbz~~
"What is that?" Vegeta stopped in the middle of the air and turned his head to the West. There were two enormous power levels in those directions. But they weren't as strong as himself. His own maximum was one hundred and seventy thousand. But those power levels were stronger than his soldiers! And he felt some saiyans power level cease to exist. And he was curious.
So, he set off to see the sources.
~~dbz~~dbz~~
"ChiChi! Are you okay?" Goku asked worriedly.
They had finished off the soldiers, but there were many more of them around the world. ChiChi had gotten injured, along with Krillen and Tien, but they weren't that bad.
"I'm fine," ChiChi replied.
"What are we going to do? There are so many of them," Krillen asked worriedly.
"We can't give up," Goku said. "There has to be some way."
Bulma sighed, but then her countenance changed when she looked to her right. Another power level was heading this way. It was 65,000, but the person could be hiding their power level. And the signature felt rather...evil or dark. One of those or even both.
"Another one?" Tien said.
Unexpectingly, the figure just seemed to appear out of thin air in front of them, but it had just been his speed. Bulma noticed he was a few inches taller than her with the most coldest, intimidating black eyes she had ever seen in her life. He wore black spandex under his armor, and gold tipped boots. His hair was like a black flame. He hovered with his feet pointed slightly downward, his chin in the air, his eyes narrowed, and arms crossed. But Goku and Bulma didn't let any of their fear show. They could feel the dark power in the air around him. Bulma noticed how hott he was, but discarded the thought a moment later and poised herself for a fight.
"Who're you?" Goku demanded seriously.
"I am King Vegeta, the ruler of the Saiyans and planet Vegetasei. I am the most feared, and one of the strongest warriors in the universe," he announced.
His voice was cold and dark, too, but slightly arrogant. It gave a cold chill down her spine. And all of them seemed to wonder that how could they have had such bad luck? They were facing the King of them all! Stronger than the rest of his race.
"My name is Goku Son," Goku said. "And we're not going to let you destroy Earth."
Vegeta narrowed his eyes at Goku strangely and thought, *He looks familiar...he looks like Bardock. Interesting. Maybe they'll related. That explains that tail I see around his waist and his power. He's a saiyan? He sure doesn't act like one...and what about that strong, gorgeous blue haired girl? How is she so strong and she's only a human..* Vegeta looked at each of them.
"This is the Earth's forces?" Vegeta laughed. "A mime, a cyclops, a bald- headed midget, a blue haired /female human/, an ugly scarred weakling, and hero-boy?!"
"Shut UP!" Bulma suddenly burst out angrily. She almost cowered away when his glare went to her.
"What did you say, girl?" Vegeta growled angrily. Bulma gulped inaudibly.
"I said, shut up," Bulma snapped at him, letting her anger replace fear. "We're tougher than we look."
"And do tell, what is your name, girl?" Vegeta asked with an amused tone.
"Bulma Briefs, heir to Capsule Corporation, and apart from my father, the smartest person on this planet," Bulma announced proudly.
"If you're smarter than the other humans then this whole planet much be full of more people stupider than you are," Vegeta said.
"ASSHOLE!" Bulma yelled.
Before anyone could stop her she flew at him, then aimed a punch at his jaw, but an inch away from hitting it, he dissapeared. Bulma looked surprise and then realized while they had talked his power level had gone over hers and Goku's. She hadn't seemed to notice. Suddenly, an elbow hit her in the back and she flew foreward. Before she hit the city ground, she flipped and her feet hovered three inches from the street. Already, the people in the city were heading out of town, and others watched them from above. She flew back up next to Goku, and Vegeta looked as if he had never moved from his spot because he stood the exact way he had. By now his power was one hundred ten thousand!
"You seem surprised," Vegeta grinned sadisticly. "Well, you and this Goku kid are stronger than my soldiers, but not me. If you join me and my soldiers, I won't hurt you and you can live on Vegetasei as an elite. Treated with respect,; however, if you don't you're still going to come anyway, along with the other humans, but you definetly won't be treated nice at all. What do you say?"
"No," Goku and Bulma said at the same time.
"If you say so, but it'll be fun beating you. I haven't had a challenge in a while," Vegeta said. "To make it fair, since I'm so strong, I'll let you all attack me at once if you want to!"
"Me 'an Bulma will fight him, guys," Goku said.
"But-" Tien ojected.
"No buts, Tien," Bulma said. "We're the strongest out of all of you. If we need help we'll tell you."
"Fine," Tien muttered. The rest of the gang flew a little ways away from the battle that was to come.
"Wait, Vegeta. I'm not doing this in the city," Goku said.
"Yeah, people will get harmed," Bulma agreed.
"Fine. Lead me to another place," Vegeta said.
They flew, and far behind them followed the others. They stopped at a mostly rock area. There were large rock hills around, but there weren't much plants around at all. It seemed like a desert, but the temperature was just warm, not scorching hot.
"Here," Goku said.
And then, the battle started.

"I hope he remembered the double date," Bulma said hopefully.

They were back at Capsule Corp. because they had to put away the things they had used. Namely the blanket, and some baskets. Also, they washed off too from their training. It had been nearly six in a half hours since they had left. Just then, Bulma's father Mr. Briefs entered the room with their cat, Scratch, on his shoulder.
"Bulma, dear!" Mr. Briefs said. "I have just found out - from my lab - that there are alien spaceships heading this way!"
"Well, while we're waiting for our guests, why don't we have some tea?" Mrs. Briefs suggested as she came in with her normal, happy attitude.
"No thanks, mom...But I can't feel their energy levels at all!" Bulma said.
"I think there is something on their ship that blocks out the energy signatures, dear," Mr. Briefs said.
"We have to get the others! When will they arrive?" Goku asked.
"Aliens? Are you saying /aliens/ are coming?!" ChiChi shrieked.
Bulma nodded, yes, to her.
"Maybe they'll just want to make peace..." ChiChi said hopefully.
"Mr. Briefs...how many ships are there?" Goku asked in a serious voice.
"Two...and they're pretty big...." he answered.
"This is horrible," Mr. Briefs sighed and looked at the cat on his shoulder, "isn't it Scratch?"
"Meow," it replied and then rubbed against his neck. He gave it a pat.
"I'll go and get the others," Goku said. "You guys stay here and I'll bring them here."
"Right," Bulma nodded.
Twenty-five minutes later the whole Z gang - Bulma, Goku, ChiChi, the blonde-headed Launch, Krillen, Tien, Choatzu, and Yamcha - were all in the Capsule Corp lawn.
"Dad, where'll they land?" Bulma asked.
"I'm not sure...my computer is somehow not working right..." Mr. Briefs frowned.
"Any idea?" Krillen asked.
"Well, the only thing I can get on the computer is somewhere near a desert....but I'm not entirely sure which because before I could find out the satellites were destroyed."

Make sure you take the valuable, or if there is any on this mudball planet, humans. If you do not bring a sufficient slave I may even kill you if I feel the need! I want two hundred and fifty of those humans! One hundred women and one hundred and fifty men! I might not keep them all, but that is what I want for now! LEADERS OF THE GROUPS, make sure you manage them well! YOU'RE DISMISSED!"
The saiyan soldiers took off in different directions, following the leaders. There were about 40 different groups with ten people in them. Vegeta watched them leave and then took off in the air himself. It was time to have some fun on this planet.

"We interrupt this program for an important news broadcast! Tall, dark- looking men with tails are creating havoc among our cities! Hundreds of them! They are going to destroy our planet and already they've killed so many innocents! Make sure you lock your doors, stay hidden! The Earth's armies are trying to team up to defeat them, but it's hopeless! These tailed men shoot strange blasts from their palms that destroy cities! And -" the new person stopped with his eyes wide as he looked to his right. "NOO!!" and then the TV went staticy and your couldn't see anything.
"People with tails...?" Launch repeated as she clicked the tv off.
"Why..." Goku said with his fists clenched. "Why would anybody do this?!"
"How are we going to defeat a whole army of them?" Krillen asked.
"Tails?" Bulma said in surprise. "I have a tail...so does Goku."
"Hmm..." Mr. Briefs said.
"Dad? Why is it I have a tail, anyway?" Bulma asked.
"I don't know, but I used to have one when I was younger..." Mr. Briefs said. "My dad left me and my mom took care of me and when I did ask she'd just shake her head and leave the room...I'm not sure why though..."
"I can't just stand here and watch the TV!! I want to fight!" Goku said.
He ran out the door and everyone, but Bulma and Launch followed.
"I have to fight, dad...mom," Bulma said. "Goodbye..."
"Oh, honey!" Mrs. Briefs hugged her tightly.
Mr. Briefs did the same.
"We love you...," Mr. Briefs said.
"Good luck, Bulma," she heard Launch say.
"Goodbye, Launch."
Bulma took one last look and bolted out of the room and followed Goku's energy signature. He was already out of the city! That was fast! She took off to the air and followed his energy signal. Just then she stopped and looked behind her. Big power levels were coming to the city. She slowly backed up. Bulma gulped. *I wanted a challenge earlier, but...this...is too much!* She went to the edge of the town where they were going to end up coming. About ten powerlevels were heading this way. She was hiding her power level, and she knew she was stronger than all of them, but...there were ten of them! Could she take them at the same time?
And she saw ten, dark, tailed figures come into view. She had put on her dark blue gi and her tail was covered by a black belt. She didn't want them to see it. They stopped in front of her, and she could tell that the leader was the one in front.
"Well, well, we've come upon a human who can fly," the leader said in amusement.
"A weak one at that," another said from behind him. She saw the scouters over their eyes. They didn't know she was hiding her power level though. "But quite a looker.." Bulma glared at his lusftul gaze.
"Three of you men go to the other side of the city," the leader ordered.
And three men left, leaving seven men for Bulma to deal with. Bulma had trained all of her life, it was in her blood, and she was very powerful. Goku was a little stronger than her, and they were the strongest out of all of them. ChiChi could fly, and so could the others. Launch couldn't fly, so she had stayed in Capsule corp. with her parents. And Bulma felt the Z fighters ki going back to the city, and Goku had gotten far away from the city, but he was coming back.
"Move out of our way and maybe you won't get hurt. After that you can be the ship's new whore," one said, then smirked.
Bulma glared. "You'll have to get through me to even to try and destroy this city."
"Feisty, eh?" the leader chuckled. "I like that in a woman."
"Stop thinking about your damn hormones and fight me already Or are you just too afraid?" Bulma said.
"Afraid?" the leader laughed. "You wish. This'll be a peice of cake. You men can watch me as I defeat her. I'll be so nice and you can have to first punch, girl."
"My pleasure," Bulma growled.
She dissapeared from view and hit him right in the jaw. He flew backwards and into a building. He slowly recovered and appearered back, wiping the blood from his lip.
"Stronger than you look," the leader said. "But this time I'm on my guard."
"Power up to your max," Bulma said.
"Okay, you asked for it," he smirked.
His power level was twenty thousand. Bulma raised an eyebrow.
"Go ahead and power up," the leader said.
With a yell Bulma powered up to thirty thousand, much to their amazement. And that wasn't even half of her true power. Bulma easily went against him, but then...
"ARE YOU JUST GOING TO STAND THERE OR ARE YOU GOING TO HELP ME?!" he yelled at them.
Bulma vaguely felt the other Z fighters fight the other 3 men on the other side of the city. She felt Goku heading back, but not yet here. And then, eight fighters rushed at her. They powered up to their maxes and Bulma didn't have enough time to power up more. Their punches connected, along with their kicks. She felt herself go weak. But then...they stopped. She opened her eyes and was happy to see Goku punch leader in the jaw and the others watching in surprise.
"LEAVE HER ALONE!" Goku yelled, enraged.
Bulma took this time to power up. She powered up to her maximum which was seventy thousand. Goku did the same and his was seventy-three thousand. And then, they fought. But on the other side of the city the two could feel that the others needed their help. They finished off the eight and then headed toward the other side.
~~dbz~~dbz~~
"What is that?" Vegeta stopped in the middle of the air and turned his head to the West. There were two enormous power levels in those directions. But they weren't as strong as himself. His own maximum was one hundred and seventy thousand. But those power levels were stronger than his soldiers! And he felt some saiyans power level cease to exist. And he was curious.
So, he set off to see the sources.
~~dbz~~dbz~~
"ChiChi! Are you okay?" Goku asked worriedly.
They had finished off the soldiers, but there were many more of them around the world. ChiChi had gotten injured, along with Krillen and Tien, but they weren't that bad.
"I'm fine," ChiChi replied.
"What are we going to do? There are so many of them," Krillen asked worriedly.
"We can't give up," Goku said. "There has to be some way."
Bulma sighed, but then her countenance changed when she looked to her right. Another power level was heading this way. It was 65,000, but the person could be hiding their power level. And the signature felt rather...evil or dark. One of those or even both.
"Another one?" Tien said.
Unexpectingly, the figure just seemed to appear out of thin air in front of them, but it had just been his speed. Bulma noticed he was a few inches taller than her with the most coldest, intimidating black eyes she had ever seen in her life. He wore black spandex under his armor, and gold tipped boots. His hair was like a black flame. He hovered with his feet pointed slightly downward, his chin in the air, his eyes narrowed, and arms crossed. But Goku and Bulma didn't let any of their fear show. They could feel the dark power in the air around him. Bulma noticed how hott he was, but discarded the thought a moment later and poised herself for a fight.
"Who're you?" Goku demanded seriously.
"I am King Vegeta, the ruler of the Saiyans and planet Vegetasei. I am the most feared, and one of the strongest warriors in the universe," he announced.
His voice was cold and dark, too, but slightly arrogant. It gave a cold chill down her spine. And all of them seemed to wonder that how could they have had such bad luck? They were facing the King of them all! Stronger than the rest of his race.
"My name is Goku Son," Goku said. "And we're not going to let you destroy Earth."
Vegeta narrowed his eyes at Goku strangely and thought, *He looks familiar...he looks like Bardock. Interesting. Maybe they'll related. That explains that tail I see around his waist and his power. He's a saiyan? He sure doesn't act like one...and what about that strong, gorgeous blue haired girl? How is she so strong and she's only a human..* Vegeta looked at each of them.
"This is the Earth's forces?" Vegeta laughed. "A mime, a cyclops, a bald- headed midget, a blue haired /female human/, an ugly scarred weakling, and hero-boy?!"
"Shut UP!" Bulma suddenly burst out angrily. She almost cowered away when his glare went to her.
"What did you say, girl?" Vegeta growled angrily. Bulma gulped inaudibly.
"I said, shut up," Bulma snapped at him, letting her anger replace fear. "We're tougher than we look."
"And do tell, what is your name, girl?" Vegeta asked with an amused tone.
"Bulma Briefs, heir to Capsule Corporation, and apart from my father, the smartest person on this planet," Bulma announced proudly.
"If you're smarter than the other humans then this whole planet much be full of more people stupider than you are," Vegeta said.
"ASSHOLE!" Bulma yelled.
Before anyone could stop her she flew at him, then aimed a punch at his jaw, but an inch away from hitting it, he dissapeared. Bulma looked surprise and then realized while they had talked his power level had gone over hers and Goku's. She hadn't seemed to notice. Suddenly, an elbow hit her in the back and she flew foreward. Before she hit the city ground, she flipped and her feet hovered three inches from the street. Already, the people in the city were heading out of town, and others watched them from above. She flew back up next to Goku, and Vegeta looked as if he had never moved from his spot because he stood the exact way he had. By now his power was one hundred ten thousand!
"You seem surprised," Vegeta grinned sadisticly. "Well, you and this Goku kid are stronger than my soldiers, but not me. If you join me and my soldiers, I won't hurt you and you can live on Vegetasei as an elite. Treated with respect,; however, if you don't you're still going to come anyway, along with the other humans, but you definetly won't be treated nice at all. What do you say?"
"No," Goku and Bulma said at the same time.
"If you say so, but it'll be fun beating you. I haven't had a challenge in a while," Vegeta said. "To make it fair, since I'm so strong, I'll let you all attack me at once if you want to!"
"Me 'an Bulma will fight him, guys," Goku said.
"But-" Tien ojected.
"No buts, Tien," Bulma said. "We're the strongest out of all of you. If we need help we'll tell you."
"Fine," Tien muttered. The rest of the gang flew a little ways away from the battle that was to come.
"Wait, Vegeta. I'm not doing this in the city," Goku said.
"Yeah, people will get harmed," Bulma agreed.
"Fine. Lead me to another place," Vegeta said.
They flew, and far behind them followed the others. They stopped at a mostly rock area. There were large rock hills around, but there weren't much plants around at all. It seemed like a desert, but the temperature was just warm, not scorching hot.
"Here," Goku said.
And then, the battle started.
