The Brother War
Chapter three
Korin looked up and saw both Vegeta and Goku standing there. " Ah... good day you two. What do you need this time?"
" Senzu beans." Goku chirped.
" Alright hold on a sec.." Korin goes into another room and he gets a bag. " Here you go Goku..."
" Yay!" Goku was just about to grab it when Vegeta did.
" I'll hang on to em."
" Aw... ok, fine." Goku pouted. They both instant transmissioned.
" Bye." Korin said.
Raditz and Kakuei were sitting atop some thrones... " Isn't this pleasant brother?" Kakuei asked
" Yes it is."
" I really enjoy this life... its so nice.."
" Its a shame those fools didn't join us..."
" At least they'll be able to rest in pieces with their beloved planet. If they had they could be living it up..."
Raditz laughed
" They're too stubborn."
" Yeah... that's true."
" They don't know what's best."
" Obviously."
" Guess again..." Goku's voice came
Raditz's head snapped over to his direction. " What! How are you still alive?"
" We stopped it."Vegeta said.
" Like you said brother... stubborn fools."
" You don't know when to quit..."
" We'll never quit." Goku said.
" Maybe you should! It would be better for you little brother."
" True Saiyans don't give up."
" So baby brother... what do you say?"
" I say... that you are the stubborn fools."
Raditz's eyes narrow. " Your the stubborn fools! You should give up already..."
" No matter how much we explain things to you... you just don't get them. Or maybe its just that your thick in the head!"
Raditz stared at them. " You think we don't get it... you don't. You want to live like dogs... while we live the good life."
"We live the good life. All we need are our family and friends."
" Which i may remind you are dead!"
" We can revive them... now...Raditz..."
" Is that a fact... You don't have dragonballs any more. I made sure of that."
" You once only needed that. you didn't need to be pampered like you were some helpless child..."
" You're the helpless child! Both your older brothers are much stronger then you..." Raditz shouted.
" Strength doesn't matter as much as who you are inside. As far as I'm concerned, both of you are babies trapped inside of and adult body."
Raditz growled.. Kakuei remained calm. " Kakarot... your speeches are rather interesting."
" Oh really?"
" Yes... i think so. but then again they can also be quite tiresome."
" The most boring speeches are the ones you can learn from."
" For once i agree with you baby brother."
" Good. You should start agreeing with me more often."
" I would...but our beliefs are totally different. And they different results."
" That's your problem."
" Care to explain?"
" Its your problem that you believe in such wrong things."
" But they have great results... Both of your older brothers turned out good."
" They turned out horrible."
" They... oh now your referring to us in the third person."
" ..huh...?"
Goku obviously didn't know much about english.
" See how stupid you are baby brother... you have no idea what you're talking about."
" Of coarse I do!"
" Then how come you didn't know that they is in the third person?"
" I don't... think that way."
" I think you gotta learn simple things first before you can grasp the truth."
" I don't need to learn that."
" Alright then back to the matter at hand... we turned out alright... while you are the runt of the bunch baby brother."
" I'm the only one that turned out alright."
Raditz and Kakuei laughed. " You are nothing compared to the greatness we have set little brother." Raditz said
" You are not great...I feel pity for you! So screwed up..."
" Alright let me rephrase that... we are awesome." Raditz looked at him. " You feel pity for me? I screwed up you say?"
" Yes, screwed up." Goku crossed his arms.
" How? In my opinion your screwed up little brother."
" What do you think I've been talking about for the past... 15 minutes!"
" Humph... nonsense... that's what you been speaking nonsense."
" Your brain is filled with nonsense! If you have one..."
" Kakuei I can't stand it anymore... lets deal with them the way our race deals with pests... send them to the dungeon."
" Just try and get me!" Goku seemed different... he wasn't as innocent and nice.
" What do you say big brother?"
" Wait... not yet... i see a change."
Raditz looked at him. " What change?"
" Oh c'mon... don't tell me you don't see it..."
" Well i guess maybe a bit..."
" I think he's actually starting to come over..."
Raditz smiled. " Well its about time... I was getting a headache."
" What are you talking about?" Goku said.
" They're talking about you, Kakarot." Vegeta said
Goku looks to Vegeta. " What are they saying?"
" That your turning evil, nitwit!"
" I don't feel different." Goku looks at himself and then back at Vegeta. " I did hear Raditz say something about a headache?"
" Yes, Kakarot."
Every now and then glimpse of Raditz nicer side showed up. But each time he shook it off. He looked to Kakuei... " We gotta end this..."
" Is the good side getting the better of you, Raditz?" Vegeta said. He noticed changes in him every once in awhile.
" I already told you... its been dead!"
" No no no... I can see it... its shining through... and you do believe Kakarot... don't you?"
Raditz rage flared...
" See... you're angry at yourself for believing it..."
" No i'm not... i told you i'm not that sweet big brother you know...and that's true."
" You've never been sweet like Kakarot, but you know he's right."
The darkness in his grew. " Shut up." He said even more coldly then before
" Yeah, Raditz, I know you love me..." Goku said as he hugged Raditz tightly.
Raditz knocked him away. " Stay away from me... you don't have the right to touch me... Only a true brother can..."
" Aw, c'mon... we can kiss and make up..." Goku made kissing noises with his mouth.
" That's for you goodlings..."
" Kakarot, your disgusting." Vegeta said, shaking his head.
" Kakuei... say something..."
" Like what, dear brother?" Kakuei said.
" Anything to shut him up... its getting on my nerves... he's not changing..."
" He's persistent to stay the way he is."
" I'm in the mood to blast him to the next dimension."
" Do the honors..." Raditz pointed his hand at his brother, his hands started to glow. He smiled evilly as the energy began to form in his hand. Goku still had a big smile plastered on his face. Raditz noticed. " What are you smiling about? You want to die that badly?"
" Huh? oh nothing." Goku fakely frowned.
" There's something.. You don;t think i'll do it..."
" Oh but your the almighty-" An old man's voice came through Goku. Goku coughs.
The older brothers heard that. " What in the name of... who was that!"
" Excuse me." He said in his normal voice.
" I know that wasn't normal..."
" What the..." Vegeta said.
" My vocal cords are just..." The old man's voice said again, through Goku's body. Raditz and Kakuei looked at him... Goku coughed again.
" That old man... hm... something's not right here."
" They're just... overreacting?" Goku said in his usual voice.
" Kakarot... what the hell is going on! You have a old man in you or something?" Vegeta asked
" No no, of coarse not!"
" I heard it!"
Everyone was dumbfounded.
" I've heard enough..." Raditz got off his throne.
" Really..." The old man's voice said again.
" I knew something wasn't right." Suddenly a cloud of smoke appeared where Goku was standing. Everyone looked at the cloud. The smoke cleared and standing where Goku was...was master roshi. " It's that dirty old man!" Raditz said
" Uh heh heh heh..." Master Roshi said.
" I knew i missed one. Clever of Kakarot... where is he?"
" er... I KNOW ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!"
Raditz smiled. " Alright then... i guess i'll just have to kill you.. Just like the others..."
" Kill turtle first!" Master Roshi pulls out turtle.
" Hey!" Turtle said.
Raditz eyes narrowed. " Yum... i guess we found dinner."
" Noooo!" Turtle said, trying to get away.
Raditz got up and walked to the three of them. A wicked smile appeared on his face. He takes his eyes off them for a second... " How do you like your turtle cooked brother?" Vegeta's mind was wandering. He was trying to find Kakarot.
" Boiled..."
They were gone when Raditz turned back. " Ah boiled uh... alright..." Raditz looked around. " Where did our dinner go!" ' Kakarot has to be near by..' Raditz continued to look for Goku. ' i know your here little brother...'
' Kakarot... yer gonna pay for this...' Vegeta thought as he carried Roshi and the turtle. He was flying away.
Raditz notice. He too disappeared and then reappeared. " Where do you think your going?"
" Uh...Away from you?"
" you won't get anyway from me.."
" I can try."
" Besides... why help some weaklings like them. When you should be asking yourself... why am i doing favors for a mean friend who left me alone?"
" mean friend?"
" You're the only mean friend that left me alone."
" Yes... Kakarot... He felt to you fend for yourself..."
" I gotta do it someday."
" Yeah.. .but still... that's a bad way for you too have to learn it..." ' there is hope for you yet brother...'
"He's tryin to help..."
" Who? Who is he trying to help... Kakarot can't help himself..."
" He's built himself a great life... you too... until you decided to just throw it all away and take it away from others as well!"
" Uh... you two give me headaches... with all your nonsense. And for your information... i didn't throw away my good life either... i still have it."
" You only got headaches from my father and his evil ways. Does he have anything to do with this?"
" I killed him years ago... He has nothing to do with this... You and Kakarot are the ones giving me headaches..!"
Vegeta looks at Raditz suspiciously. " You give yourself a headache."
Raditz snorted. " That was almost funny. Now then... where is that little brother of mine..."
" I honestly don't know."
" That's just sad... What should I do with you... that is the question.."
" Umm... be my friend and let me live in peace?" Vegeta said with a sarcastic tone.
" If you want to be friends... then join us... You can have everything you want... nothing will be out of your grasp."
" I can't join you..."
" That's too bad."
" I don't wanna join losers."
Raditz growled.
" Kill me now then...I'd rather be with Bulma..."
" Fine... i was willing to save your life but i think now i will kill you..." Raditz let his energy rise. His hand glowed. Vegeta just stands there. He crosses his arms and closes his eyes. Raditz smirks. " Farewell Vegeta!" Raditz fires a huge blast, even more powerful then the last one. Vegeta waits... The attack hits him dead center. Nothing was protecting him. And the attack went right through him... Vegeta was killed
The smoke that surrounded him subsided. Vegeta's body fell to the ground. Raditz laughed evilly. Vegeta's spirit exited to otherworld. " Well i guess that ends that...Kakarot... you let your last friend in this world die..."
In Otherworld...
" Get me to hell!" Vegeta yelled.
King Yama looked at Vegeta. " But but you belong in-" King Yama started.
" Because...I need to settle something..."
" You need something? Like what? Something with your father i presume?"
" Perhaps... now..."
" Alright... down to hell with you." King Yama bellowed
Vegeta was down in hell. " Now now...Father... where are you..."
" What do you want!" King Vegeta shouted
"Your assistance, dear father."
" What for? Since when do you WANT my help."
" Since now... What do you want brat?"
" I need you to go into Raditz."
" What on earth for?"
" To reawaken the good inside him. And if you don't wanna help me..." Vegeta took him by the collar.
" ...You're gonna have some major bruises and gashes from yours truly!""
" Now hold on... how will that help? I'm not good remember..."
" I'm going to keep an eye on you..."
"Why would you trust me... i prefer him evil."
" I don't trust you... but I WILL make sure you don't go over the line... I'm much more powerful than you now and with a flick of my finger I could destroy you."
" Alright fine... i can try... i don't have much influence on him anymore. He is in full control..."
" I'll make you have influence on him... I will TEMPORARILY boost your power to help you with it. But if you screw up, don't expect any mercy from me."
" Fine... what do you want me too do?"
" Give him your best headache, to distract him, then tap into the little of good left inside him. Make it grow."
" It'll be hard to find though... That's tricky... But i'll try to do that..."
