K the C

Vegeta stared at the words in disbelief. He mouthed them to himself again and again. 'Blame Vegeta,' he thought. 'What the hell did I ever do to this psychopath!? Anyone who has or has had a grudge against me is either dead or my friend now! It doesn't add up!' He looked over to Goku and noticed that his ki level was steadily increasing.

"Kakarot what are you doing!?" Vegeta screamed. "You're losing control of your energy, calm down this freak is obviously after me you've got nothing to worry about."

"I can't help it!" Goku screamed. "So many innocent people killed! Not to mention one of my best friends, Uub, all in the same day! This is Majjin Buu all over again!"

"Kakarot calm yourself!" Vegeta demanded. His words had no effect. "Take a deep breath and relax. We'll go back to your place and form a plan from there. But just relax and clear your head now." The last few words were in a more soothing voice than his usual demanding voice.

"Okay, Vegeta." Goku said. "I'll try but my ki is out of control." He tried dropping his ki but it was a very little bit. He struggled but to no avail. He began humming to himself. This seemed to help him focus as his ki soon began to drop. Vegeta didn't recognize what Goku was humming but didn't care he was more concerned with other things now.

"There." Goku said with a sigh.

"Good now just Instant Transmission us back to your house so we can make a strategy." Vegeta said trying to remain calm even though his insides were exploding. He ignored the feeling and floated over to Goku.

"Ready?" Goku asked. Vegeta nodded. He grabbed Goku's shoulder and they disappeared just as news helicopters came over the city.

Upon their arrival at the Son's residence everyone ran towards them in gladness. Their feelings of joy were demolished when they saw Uub's limp body in Vegeta's arms. Bulma looked at the body and her lip began to tremble. "P-P-Pan… Br-Bra why don't you to g-go and play in the… the… uh place with the… b-beds… the… the…."

"The bedroom!" Chi-Chi yelled finishing Bulma's sentence. "And go fast… shoo… shoo… shoo!" she said pushing them out of the room. The girls walked out of the room and immediately everyone began asking questions.

"Everyone calm down." Goku said. "I'll tell you what happened." He retold the story down to every detail. No one noticed Vegeta sit on the couch and turn on the television. When he finished the retelling no one said anything. The only noise came from the TV. This drew everyone's attention. The Channel 67 news was on, they were showing live coverage of the 'West City Crisis' as it was called. In the picture there were thousands of rescue vehicles and people dressed in bright orange jackets. In the bottom right corner there were 2 boxes. One labeled 'Confirmed Dead: 2,679,018." The other was labeled 'Confirmed Survivors: 0."

The zero was imprinted in Vegeta's mind. It was all he could think of. He began wondering how something so little could mean so much. He was in a trance until he heard his voice. "The 'Blame Vegeta' was the most astounding to officials. They wondered what it meant but wasted no time putting it into the World Census Database. It came up with one match for the word 'Vegeta.' That is Vegeta Briefs of West City who is presumed dead and… wait a minute I'm getting a breaking story," he put his finger to his ear and pushed in his ear-piece. "There is another fire in East City! Officials are," click" The TV went off as Vegeta hit the 'Off' button.

Vegeta looked at Goku, "Let's go Kakarot!" Vegeta stood up and made for the door.

"Wait Vegeta." Goku said, "This guy's too strong for the two of us, we'll need help." Goku looked at Trunks, Goten, and Gohan. "More help than just these three."

"Well what the hell do you suggest Kakarot?" Vegeta spat in anger. "We can't just wait here until other people come to help us can we?"

"No, but I can go get them." Goku said. He didn't wait for anyone else to say a word, he just Instant Transmissioned out of the house to who knows where.

Vegeta yelled "Now what are we going to do?! I can't take on this guy alone! Even as an SS4 I'll get creamed!"

"We can prepare for Goku to return," said Trunks. "Goten, I think we need to practice our dancing skills." He said with a grin.

"I hear ya'" Goten said returning the smile. The two stepped outside closely followed by yells of "FU…SION…HA!" But, judging by the lack of light flashing they were only practicing and not fusing.

"Kakarot where are you!?"

"Right here," said Goku. He and a large group of people had just materialized behind Vegeta. Vegeta stared at Goku, Piccolo, Tien, and Chiaotzu. "We're all here so let's go."

Vegeta, Goten, Trunks, Gohan, and the rest all grabbed onto Goku. The chain disappeared from the house, leaving their wives all alone.

Seconds later they appeared in East City, which was also burning uncontrollably. The fire wasn't what caught their attention though, they were more distracted by the clearly living people floating in the air and then plummeting at least 80 stories to the ground below.

The Z warriors wasted no time saving the people. Chiaotzu used his psychic powers to save the people who were levitating and let them off at a none burning place. Tien, Yamcha, and Gohan all went to catch more people who were dropping. Goten and Trunks went down to the ground, closely followed by Goku and Vegeta. The two younger boys did their fusion trick and emerged as Gotenks, he quickly powered up to SS3 and began searching for the killer behind this all.

Goku and Vegeta also searched but didn't have to look far. Gotenks had found the killer or had found his fist at least. A mean upper cut had launched them high into the air. Gotenks stopped himself and flew back at the foe hidden in the smoke below. Once again Goku and Vegeta saw their fused sons fly into the air high above the smoke. This time the killer followed. He wore a large black cloak that completely hid his body, including his face. The killer laughed maniacally he grabbed Gotenks by the throat he seemed t be trying to literally pull the boy's head-off. The nearest Z Warrior noticed this and tried to save the boys.

It was Yamcha. He jumped on the warrior and attempted to pull him off Gotenks. There was no use, the man was so strong it appeared Yamcha wasn't pulling at all. The figure took no notice of Yamcha until Yamcha punched him hard in the face.

"You think you can hurt me?"

"I can try at least" said Yamcha. He was staring straight at the man now. As little light as there was being allowed to his face Yamcha recognized him.

"It's you!" He shouted. "Vegeta help it's… GAAAAAAH!" The man had shoved his fist straight through Yamcha's body.

"No!" screamed Goku. "You murderer! How could you!" Goku turned SS4 and shot at the attacker. "I'll kill you!"

The attacker took no notice of the world's strongest man shooting at him. He continued to strangle Gotenks until he heard a small pop.

"Finally, I thought your neck would never break!" he screamed.

"That's not their neck." Goku said from behind him. It was your spine."

The figure looked over his shoulder and saw a large lump on his back. Apparently Goku had hit him without him taking notice.

"Your spine is destroyed, you can't get it fixed anywhere." Said Goku. "I've beaten you."

The man gave a small laugh. "You wish." He shook Yamcha's body off his arm and popped his spine back into place. "I'm unbeatable."

Goku stared in horror, that had been his hardest punch and it had had no effect.

"I could kill you all right now, but why? Why ruin my fun and kill you all. I'll just kill some of you." He gave another laugh.

The figure turned around and faced the news helicopters that none of them had noticed. He went back to the struggling Gotenks. With little effort he completely tore off his head. Without any remorse he looked to the helicopter. "Catch!"

He threw the head at the helicopter with such speed that it took it down. "See ya later." With another laugh the man disappeared leaving the Z Warriors lessened and alone.
