Smooth 2

Well, That's the Same Emotion I Get From You

And if you said
This life ain't good enough
I would give my world to lift you up
I could change my life to better suit your mood
Cause you're so smooth

"Looks like the Monkeys have landed." Frieza said with disgust.

"Ha very funny Frieza." Goku spat. "We saved your child's life. What are you doing back here? I hope it is to thank us and be on your way."

"Not quit what I had in mind you stupid monkey!" Frieza growled, checking his temper. "After all these years I'm going to get you back what you did to me!"

"You mean what you did to yourself." Goku replied, his smile growing every second.

"You think you can get away with this you clown?" Vegeta yelled. "Well I'll tell you now that we are all over Super Sayijin 3 we will have no problem beating you!" While Vegeta kept up his ranting, irritating the hell out of every one on the opposing team whispered words could be hardly discerned from the Z senshi.

"I wonder why they came back." Goten spoke to his friend, Trunks. "Scarlet said that she would see what she could do."

Trunks had to raise his voice a little to speak over his father. "I guess you just can't trust these guys." He was about to tell his father to shut up, but Cold beat him to the punch.

"Shut up you insolent dog! If we are going to fight then let's fight... I can't stand listening to your stupid Sayijin voice!"

"Alright then." Goku said with a serious face, turning SSJ3 in an instant. He hoped to intimidate them by this mean. "You can leave if you want, but if you stay we're not gonna be so nice to ya."

"Hmph! I could care less." Frieza laughed, he was a little afraid once he saw the Sayijin's hair grow, but reminded himself that he was the most powerful being in the universe, therefore he had nothing to worry about! ^_^ "You are such a fool! I've become much stronger than I had been... you will no doubt be eating your words in moments my little Super Sayijin." He paused for a moment. "Did I mention that my daughter was stronger than I? If I fail then you'll still have much to worry about."

"I don't care what you say." Goku frowned, his face glowing with the strange gold aura. "You daughter doesn't have your heart... if you even have one." He saw Frieza loose it for a moment, but the evil lizard quickly composed himself. "You shouldn't have come here. I don't want to be responsible for orphaning a child."

"Whatever you say amigo." I'm going rip his damn ears off and make his eat them! Frieza thought wildly. "I just hope you can back your words up."

"I can!" Goku launched himself at Frieza without warning. They met a tidal wave of punches and kicks. Each seemingly able to anticipate the other's move. It looks like Frieza wasn't lying after all! Goku thought to himself. But I won't let him win... I still have allot of energy to use.

Scarlet watched on as her family members took partners. Kooler took on Gohan, while her grandfather stayed Trunks and Vegeta at the same time. I didn't know grandpa was that strong! She thought. Cold took a blow to the face from Vegeta while Trunks ki blasted him. Maybe I should help him fight... but the Sayijin helped me. Her thoughts went back to when the Earth's Son Goku saved her life by barely a thread. Her soul had almost been wiped out, but he had managed to save her just in the nick of time. How could she come back and hurt somebody... who had so much honor?

"I guess it's just you and me now." Goten walked up to her, she noted that he wore the red bandanna she gave him, only this time he wore it around his neck. "Care to dance m'lady?"

"Not really," She pouted. "But I will all the same."

Goten made the first move by striking at her abdomen, which she canceled out with ease. "You said that you would stop this.... instead you come back to Earth and try to destroy us! I guess it serves me right! I thought you were good!" He said between punches.

"I tried!" Scarlet shouted above the screaming and the pounding of fists and flesh from the others around them. "I told him..." She managed to cuff him in the chin just barely. "I told him that you saved me! He wouldn't listen!" She dodged a ki beam directed at her midsection. "That's all he cares about, getting revenge... and I can't just stand by and let him get killed!"

Goten kicked the dead center of her stomach. "And I will not stand by and let your father destroy mine!" He kicked her away from him in one fluid movement.

Scarlet bounced right back up off the ground and shot a laser beam from her finger so quick Goten had no time to move. He took the blast head on with one of his own he never saw it coming. "I wish I could..." She chopped his neck with the side of her hand, making him wince. "Stop this... but I can't... so why argue about it?"

Suddenly as if struck by lightning Goten had a marvelous idea... it was pretty underhanded and dirty, but it would probably work. "Now we'll see how much daddy loves him little girl, hm?"

Scarlet could only stare a him blankly, that is before he transported himself behind her. She felt searing pain shoot up her arm! That dirty Sayijin had gotten behind her and twisted her arm painfully behind her back. "How dare you?!" She tried kicking him but as she did he only pushed her arm up further.

"I think you might get your wish." Goten chuckled. "Your father likes you right? Sooo... I'll just use you as a hostage!"

"WHAT?! Why you filthy lowlife pig!" She struggled despite her grueling agony. "You monkey! You animal! You traitorous-!"

"Keep it up darling... your words are music to me." He purred. "Now let's move over to daddy like a good little girl." He started making his way through the crowed.

"Fiend!" She wailed. "When my father gets a hold of you-" She didn't finish her sentence.

Frieza peeked over his shoulder, while fighting, seeing something strange. He got kicked in the face for his effort, but something's were more important. What was Scarlet doing with that... that... MONKEY?! The boy seemed to be embarrassing her from behind... but as he saw her face in slight pain her realized what was going on.

"Hey Frieza!" Goten said in a sing-song voice. "Look what I've got!" Suddenly, everybody stopped fighting to see what was happening.

Scarlet took his moment of distraction to look her family over and see if they were hurt. Her grandfather was breathing very hard, probably from taking on two people at once. He also had massive discolorations on his arms and legs. Her uncle on the other hand, seemed to be doing fine... all except for a few cuts here and there. Her father wasn't harmed, or even dirty for that matter. She sighed in relief. They were still fine.

"Goten... maybe you shouldn't do that." Goku warned. That wasn't the way to win a fight... he remembered when Radditz had taken Gohan from him, not liking the sensation at all. Maybe... if it were to keep Frieza and his family from being destroyed, then it might be okay. Wouldn't it? He just hoped Frieza wouldn't kill his son in the mean time!

"Argh! What are you doing?! Get your slimy hands off of my daughter or I will kill you!" Frieza shrieked in anger, just a little fear tingeing his voice.

"I don't think so." Goten had to act tough... and like an absolute bitch to pull this one off. He twisted his captive's arm a little, not allot, but enough to make her gasp and hiss at him.

Frieza didn't make a move, wondering how to go about this situation. Having never had anybody to use against him before this scene was completely new to him! Maybe he should just blast the brat... but he couldn't, his daughter was in front of the little scoundrel. Damn it! He swore vehemently. What am I going to do? He absently wondered why the monkey behind him hadn't made any move to hurt him.

"I won't do anything to her." Goten reassured, his face taking on a serious light. "Just leave!"

"Alright." Frieza decided to do this... for now... Tomorrow he would attack and kill them though. He smiled. "Brother? Father? Come back to the ship with me." All three flew off. Leaving behind Scarlet who immediately took flight the moment Goten let her go.

She turned around and stuck her tongue out at her former-captor. "I guess you win."

"We haven't heard the last of them." Goku observed, rubbing his wrist. "Frieza only left to save his kid. He'll probably come back and try killing us again. Next time I don't think he will bring Scarlet."

"Hmph!' Vegeta snorted. "The second that girl catches up with those three is the moment they turn right back around!"

"But papa," Trunks looked at his father in a carefree manner. "Cold wasn't that big of a challenge."

"Yes, because you were with me." Vegeta spat. "We would be no match for him any other way."

"We still kicked his ass though." Trunks couldn't help but let the delight in his voice show.

"Yes we did." Vegeta said proudly.

"Kooler wasn't to big a deal." Gohan grinned. "I don't know who they think they are, but they are not so tough."

"Frieza has gotten much better," Goku admitted. "But he really isn't much of a match."

"Let's just face it." Trunks laughed contently. "They some back and... (snaps fingers) we beat 'em."

"Let's not overestimate ourselves." Goku thought on this for a moment, his eyes going wide. "Wait! Frieza body has to bigger when at his max right?!" Every one who knew of this nodded. "He was still small! Cold was at his maximum fighting power but... Kooler wasn't either!"

Everybody's eyes grew. "But they still can't beat us right?!" Trunks asked. "We could still get rid of Cold... Papa and I! But what about the other three?"

"I don't know." Goku scratched his head, wondering what the future would bring.

"Damn you Frieza! Why didn't you tell me you were that strong?!" King Cold asked, not liking being bested by his son and not knowing about it!

"Don't yell at me!" Frieza screamed back. "I didn't know until just now... I haven't powered up all the way in quit a while you know!" He slanted a look at his daughter. "How could you get caught like that anyway?! I would have expected better from you young lady!"

"Sorry daddy." She lowered her eyes. "He said something... and I guess I didn't pay attention to what I was doing."

"I don't want to have to do that again." Frieza warned. "Next time those monkeys will not be so lucky!" He clenched a fist so hard she wondered if blood would start dripping from his palm.

"Daddy... I don't want you to fight." Scarlet complained. "I know they are holding back! I know it!"

"That's it!" Frieza shouted. "Leave right now! Go take a walk and when you are done with this nonsense you may come back in!" He tapped his foot vigorously, until she nodded and left the room.

"I worry about that girl." Cold remarked. "Strange child."

"Hmph! Daddy is wrong I know he is, all he can get is hurt!" Scarlet fumed, deciding to sit down next to a pond. The misquotes were not out tonight. must be eating the humans. She thought with a slight chuckle. "I wish daddy would forget about the Sayijin... I'm tired of him being so angry all the time. Not even grandad and uncle Kooler carry on like he does."

"Who are you talking to?"

Scarlet was once again startled. "Man! You always seem to be able to sneak up on me!" She tittered. "Do you think it's funny?"

"No not really." Goten sat next to her on the sandy bank. He leaned in to talk in her ear. "Are you and your family going to leave?"

She sighed. "Not until my dad gets himself killed."

"Oh." He looked out onto the moon-lit pond. "You know, when I met you, I knew you were different. Different from all the bad guys we ever fought. You don't have the heart for it Scarlet... and it shows."

"I think we already covered this." Scarlet was going to get up to leave, that was, until he yanked her back down into her sitting position. When she struggled he yanked her to him. His lips caressed her earlobe as he spoke, making her shake, but not out of revulsion. "You can stop this. It's in you hands Scarlet, you can stop your evil family, I know you at least can do that if nothing else."

"You don't know my family." She was still shaking. "They are too stubborn."

"So are you." He reminded her. "I know that, I don't know why, but I do. If you have the heart and believing, you can do anything." He released her and she scooted away from him slightly.

Thoroughly angered by being handled in such a fashion she lashed out at him. "How dare you?! Y-you stay away from me you idiotic-!!" She pummeled his chest ineffectively with her fists. Damn it! I'm only in my first form!! She realized her error once he looked at her with his dark eyes.

His eyes narrowed on her, he grabbed both of her wrists. "Who do you think you are?" When she struggled he held on tighter. "Your no better than anyone else you know? Just because I'm different doesn't mean I'm stupid."

"Don't you think I know that you damn jerk!! Now let me go before-!"

"Before what?" What was he doing?! Goten never believed he would act like this before. Something was wrong with her... no, not wrong. She intoxicated his senses, the way she smelled, her ruby colored eyes, her white skin. What am I thinking?! His mind mentally shrieked. He numbly realized that she was kicking his shins. "OUCH!"

"Serves you right!" She pulled at her hands. "Let go!" To both of their surprise he did, and she fell strait on her behind. "Why you-!!!!" She kicked at him, still sitting on the filthy ground beneath her. She jumped up. "You pig! Toad! Animal!" She wailed into his face, she leaned down every so often to pick up dirt clods to throw at him. Scarlet was feeling quit the fool, throwing dirt at a Super Sayijin was getting her no where.

"Hmph! I wouldn't do that."

Scarlet looked into his eyes and realized how angry he looked, no, it was how dangerous he looked that frightened a corner of her mind. It told her to run, run before he could pounce on her. And she followed it.

Goten didn't know what provoked him, he should have let her leave, but something in his mind made him run after her. Her hair caught the moon beams as she weaved through the trees of the forest, egging him on.

Thinking he was well behind her she slowed down, but she heard faster footsteps from behind. She turned her head to see him coming in fast, she let out a comical shriek and jogged even faster past the trees' branches and thistle bushes. Leaves beat at her face and the twigs and thorns caught her hair and pulled. Being so tender-headed she had to stop quite a few times to pull her hair from their entrapments, but continued to race like a mad woman.

Goten watched as she trip out a root and by accident he fell on top of her. They could both hear the sound of ripping cloth. He laid there, prone for a moment, out of breath from the sudden fall. He would of picked himself up, but her struggling that followed didn't support that decision. Every time he tried to stand up their tangled limbs made him trip over again onto her. After a while they just laid there on the ground laughing a little.

Scarlet unwove her tail from his legs so he could get up correctly. "You can get off me now."

"Oh yeah." Goten lifted his body up slowly so this time he wouldn't fall all over her, he started laughing again at the thought.

"Don't laugh!" She wailed. "You are going to fall on me again!" And he did just that! "Get off of me!!!" It wasn't funny for her anymore, it hurt having such a heavy jerk fall on her every three seconds.

Goten stopped moving, she saw his chest trembling, along with his arms and legs. Scarlet looked up to where he was and found something equally disturbing... her father.
