A/N: Four day weekends got to love them.
Reviewer W- 1) I plan on Gohan first. 2) Not sure yet. You're forgetting that Gohan is barely six years old. I think it would still enrage him if I were to kill off one of his close friends. 3) Probably 4) Since when where Choutzu, Tien, Yamcha and Goku bad guys? 5) No 6) Yup 7) Most likely 8) Considering putting her in, but not for a major role in the story. She would only be in one or two scenes at the most. 9) Yes
KILLFRENZY- I don't think anyone's ego can rival Vegeta's
Knight's Shadow- I don't know what the power levels were in the show so I can't really give a general idea. Krillin and Piccolo are a bit stronger because of their spars with Gohan. Gohan is about as strong as Frieza's third form, I guess.
K1K- I totally agree.
hsb- Sorry about the delayed updates. I really only get the chance to type new chapters on non-school nights because I stay up until three in the morning. Do you have any idea about the lack of ideas in one's head at that time? Otherwise I'm busy with schoolwork.
Disclaimer: No, I don't. But if I did...

Chapter 6
"Weird. Namek looks a lot like Earth." Bulma commented on seeing the green grass and blue skies. She then spotted brown trunks of trees leading up to the green leaves that were in a perfect sphere. "Interesting looking trees they have here."
"It's brighter here than it is on Earth," Krillin commented. "They must have more than one source of light."
"I'm sure that we could spend hours pointing out the similarities and differences of Earth and Namek, but I'm pretty sure that we aren't here for research." Gohan said impatiently.
"Yeah. So Bulma, lead us to the dragonballs, hoping there are some." Krillin muttered the last part silently, although Gohan and Piccolo heard him perfectly.
"Let's see here." Bulma pulled out the circular dragon radar and pushed the button on the top. Seven blinking lights showed up on the screen. "Uh oh. We're not the only ones looking for the dragonballs. Three of them are together and heading southeast towards a fourth. Another dragonball is on the move west towards the same one. The sixth is about three hundred miles north of the dragonball those groups are heading towards.The seventh is about five hundred miles that way." Bulma said, pointing out the direction of the dragonball.
"Can I see that for a moment, Bulma?" Gohan inquired.
"Sure sweetie."
Gohan cringed at the nickname. He checked the locations of the dragonballs and sent his senses out to detect the power levels of the people with the dragonballs. "Well Vegeta has one of them. The other high power levels have the remaining ones. We can try to intercept the fourth dragonball; it's only two minutes flight away. That would give us about ten minutes before the others get there."
"Um... I'd rather wait and see what we're up against. They may not trust aliens to just give us the dragonballs," Krillin proclaimed. "They also may be wary because of your tail if they've gotten a good look at Vegeta." Gohan rolled his eyes.
"It's okay, Krillin. You can just admit that you're a coward. We all know that anyways." Piccolo smirked at the statement.
"Easy for you to say," Krillin replied. "You could probably take out most of those people giving off the high power levels, and that's supposing they don't know how to suppress their energy signal like we do. I don't even have enough power to take out the weakest of them."
"Two of the others are hiding their true power." Piccolo stated. "It's very easy to feel the difference between normal energy and suppressed energy."
"Well, we've wasted enough time. If we leave now, we can arrive near the other dragonball just before the high powers do," Gohan mentioned. "Looks like one of their group is heading... this way? Who's energy could they have detected this way?" Gohan did some quick calculations in his head. "Oh. The person giving off that signal will arrive at the village just before Vegeta does, probably to stop him. So, where should we go?"
"We're best off heading towards the dragonball and seeing what we're up against," Piccolo said.
"I'm NOT going into a fight so I'll just go find a cave or something to hide in until you're done. Here, Krillin, I'll give you the dragon radar." Bulma stated. She grabbed an empty capsule from her pocket and capsulized the ship. Bulma then set off in search of a good enough cave to hide in.
"Let's go."
With that said, Gohan, Krillin, and Piccolo took off towards the intended destination of the opponent.
"You guys do realize that Vegeta is heading right towards us, right?" After nods from the others he continued. "Are we going to have to fight him again? I really don't want to get involved with him again. I can't believe I let Goku talk me into letting Vegeta go."
"You say that like we have something to worry about. We all know that Vegeta is probably only concerned with the other group collecting the dragonballs to waste time fighting us." Gohan said.
"True, true. Well, there's the village. I guess we should land now."
"Right."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Goku was training in seventy times Earth's gravity in only the orange part of the gi, having removed the weight for easier movement. He was practicing using the Kaio Ken at higher levels.
'Goku!' a voice called in his head, 'what are you doing heading to Namek?'
'Huh? Oh! King Kai! I'm going to revive my friends that the saiyans killed, why?'
'There is a dangerous man there that you need to avoid. He has unfathomable power that you can't stand up against.'
'High power? Oh good, this ought to give me a good fight. I can't wait.'
'Don't be crazy, Goku. You can't defeat him. His name is Frieza and he is a universally feared tyrant. He has too much power and you can never hope to beat him. You have to promise me that you will avoid him at all costs.'
'But it sounds like such a good challenge,' Goku whined. 'I want to fight him, King Kai.'
'NO! Whatever you do you MUST avoid him. Promise me that you won't go charging into a battle against him. You can't win.'
Goku pouted. 'Oh fine, I promise I won't go and challenge this universally feared tyrant unless unavoidable.'
'Good. I don't want to have to see you so soon.' With that said, well thought, the link was severed and Goku continued his training.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Well, well. We meet again, Earthlings," the cocky voice of Vegeta said. "I was hoping to get another good fight out of you, brat."
"That's nice, Vegeta. I'm more worried about the other signal heading our way than you." Gohan informed.
"You should be worried about me," a new voice stated. Everyone looked in the direction of their guest to find a purple alien, about Vegeta's height, standing in some saiyan armor with his arms across his chest. "After all, Vegeta has always been weaker than me."
"Oh, shut up, Kui. I don't care to hear any of your sass. I could take you down whenever I wanted to. I just wanted to keep you around for a good punching bag." Vegeta remarked.
"Sure, Vegeta. Tell me who was always winning our spars on the ship. Oh yeah, that's right, me. You have never defeated me in battle and never shall. Lord Frieza recognizes my superior talent and made gave me higher power. Shove that down your throat Mr. Prince of all monkeys!" Kui taunted.
A vein bulged on Vegeta's forehead. He started growling lowly. "I don't care what Frieza thinks. I never liked him anyway. How could I? He did destroy all of my people, the bastard."
"Then I'll be doing Frieza a favor by putting you out of your misery permanently."
"Hey, Vegeta! You better finish him off quick before my boredom calls for me to do something about this weakling. He's really starting to annoy me," Gohan called.
"Very funny, brat of Kakarott. But I definitely think that it's time to get rid of you once and for all, Kui."
"You never could defeat me, Vegeta. And I'm guaranteeing that you won't start..." His sentence was cut off by an energy blast. When the dust cleared, there were no traces of him left.
"Too late, Vegeta. I shouldn't have bothered doing that. Oh well. That was a waste of energy too." Gohan wined.
"Hey Gohan! The group with the high signals just landed. I hope they didn't catch your energy signals."
Gohan rushed over to the cliff and looked over to inspect the energies. Gohan noticed that they all wore some version of saiyan armor and had scouters over their left eyes. He ignored the weakest of the energies, as they were just some gray skinned henchmen. He then spotted a large, fat pink creature with spikes all over its body. Gohan next sensed the suppressed energies. One of the energies belonging to a tall, lean green creature. He had long green hair pulled back into a ponytail. The other energy, the strongest of the group, was a small pinkish creature with two horns on the top of his head. Gohan couldn't get a very good idea about this one because it was sitting in a large black floating chair.
Gohan then spotted the dragonballs. Two held by the green one and one by the pink. They were larger than the ones on Earth, about the size of basketballs.
"The pink one over there is Dodoria, the green freak is Zarbon, and the one too lazy to even use his own energy is Frieza." Vegeta supplied.
Krillin raised an eyebrow at Vegeta. "And why are you bothering to tell us this?"
"Because I hate them and, as much as I hate to admit it, the saiyan brat over there is stronger than me so I have a better chance of beating Frieza if I work with you than on my own."
"Oh. Can you suppress your energy? We don't exactly want Frieza to know that we're here."
"Whatever. I don't see why you would want to cower away." Vegeta rolled his eyes but lowered his energy nonetheless.
They observed as Frieza was demanding the dragonball from the village people. It obviously took too long as Frieza started blasting some of the Namekians. As his aim turned towards the children, Gohan and Piccolo sensed Krillin's energy spiking. Frieza and his gang noticed too as all of their eyes faced in their direction for a second before resuming the 'negotiations.'
"I can't believe those ruthless monsters, attacking children. I won't let them get away with this." Krillin charged straight into battle, forgetting about the differences in their strengths. Gohan, Piccolo, and Vegeta looked at each other then shrugged their shoulders and followed Krillin.
Krillin flew right into the path of a weak energy beam aimed at one of the kids and deflected it into the distance. The older Namekians looked relieved at his timely arrival. Gohan, Piccolo, and Vegeta landed behind Krillin.
"You ruined my fun, baldie. Vegeta? I always knew you would betray me. I'm surprised that you managed to beat Kui so quickly. Not that I care. I see you lowered yourself to working with weaklings." Frieza commented.
"Ha. If you think that this is their real power than you're an even bigger idiot than I thought. These earthlings know how to hide their power levels from the scouters. And to make it even better, one of them is saiyan, and quite a strong one at that." Vegeta boasted.
"Another monkey, eh? I don't really care. I'll just kill you along with the rest of these Namekians." Frieza held up his hand and began pooling energy into it. He released several blasts that hit the Namekian elders, killing them. He looked at the two kids, the only Namekians of the village left. "What's the matter, kids? I'm not going to hurt you... much." He began to charge energy into his hand again to finish the job.
"Not on my watch," Krillin yelled. He put both of his hands in front of his head, fanned out his fingers, and shut his eyes tight. "SOLAR FLARE!" A blinding light was emitted that blinded all but Krillin, Gohan, and Piccolo. Krillin grabbed the children and took off with Gohan and Piccolo following. Gohan made sure that Vegeta was still following them as he was trying to follow them based on his weak energy sensing abilities he had picked up on Earth.
When the light cleared and everyone could see again, they noticed the absence of the six. They appeared to not really care.
"You! Go get the dragonball. There shouldn't be any Namekians to guard it. Zarbon, call in the Ginyu Force. Their assistance may be required to get rid of those meddling saiyans." The servant set out and returned a minute later with the dragonball while Zarbon called the ship..
"Excellent. Soon I shall have my wish of immortality!" Frieza then signaled his group and they took off towards the next dragonball.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Krillin took a quick glance behind him and saw Frieza heading in the opposite direction of them. He slowed down and looked at the kids. "Can you two fly?" The Namekians nodded and Krillin released them.
"So, where are we taking the Nameks, cue ball?" Vegeta asked.
"I don't know. Have you kids got somewhere to go? We don't want to take you with us on our search for the dragonballs. It could be too dangerous."
"You're looking for the dragonballs too?" The smaller child questioned. After a quick glance at the other child, he continued, "Your purposes are obviously more honest than Frieza. I'll take you to the elder Namek; he has one of the dragonballs."
"Okay then. Lead the way." Krillin said.
The Namekian children began leading them. After about twenty minutes, they saw what looked like a house on top of a tall rocky pillar. As they were about to land there, they saw a beaten up Namek lying on the ground barely alive.
"NAIL! What happened to you?" The children pondered.
"Just... defending the elder... from that fiend... Frieza. Nothing... to worry about," Nail replied. Nail then turned his attention towards Piccolo. "I don't think... I've see you around here before, brother."
"You shouldn't have. I've been living on Earth my entire life." Piccolo responded.
"You're going to fight Frieza, aren't you?" Nail stated more than asked. "I can help you. If I can't beat him on my own, maybe I can help defeat him through another."
Everyone raised their eyebrow at Nail's statement. "Oh really," Piccolo said. "And how could you do that."
"All Namekians have the ability to fuse," Nail replied weakly. "If I fuse with you, you will get stronger and my knowledge."
"Will I still be myself?"
"Of course." Nail laughed. "You wouldn't really notice I was there. You would still be in total control."
"Very well then. You've seized my interest. What do I do?"
"Just put your arm on me and don't move it." Piccolo placed his arm on Nail's chest and waited while Nail closed his eyes and concentrated. A moment later, a bright light was emitted from Nail and everyone shielded their eyes. When the light cleared, there were only three Nameks.
"Wow!" Piccolo exclaimed. "This power, it's incredible!"
"Come on, you guys should see the elder now," the child remarked. He then led them into the building to visit the elder.
************************************************
Thanks all for getting me Kui's name. Decided to move up Piccolo's fusion with Nail since he came to Namek with them instead of being wished back.
