Chapter 16

"What…what are those things," Tien shouted.

Vegeta smiled, "These are saibamen, and you are going to fight them. I am not going to waste my time fighting you weaklings, but I do need something to keep me entertained. So who is going to fight first?"

Yancha stepped forward, "I will take them on first."

Athena scratched her head and thought to herself, 'Ok, now who was supposed to die here…' She thought for a moment, 'every one dies here except Gohan I think. Ya that' right.'

Vegeta came back over to Athena and Nappa. He flashed Athena a look.

Athena raised her eyebrow, "And what was that look for?"

He flashed her another look, "Well lets see… hmmm… maybe it's because you threw me all the way over there!"

Athena laughed, "Is that all? Oh come on you seriously thought that I wasn't going to do something like that after you pissed me off?"

Vegeta just turned away.

Athena rolled her eyes, "Well to make it up I will do this for you" She rubbed her index finger and thumb together, "Here is the worlds smallest violin playing the worlds saddest song. There is everything all better now?"

"Oh just shut up and watch the fight."

Athena looked up. She saw Yancha fighting the saibamen, and he was about to win. There were only 2 left, and he was barely having any trouble. 'Oh shit, Yancha is supposed to die like… now!' she thought to herself. She looked up to see that he killed another one. 'Fuck…I better make this one count. If I'm not mistaken, saibamen can self-destruct.' She closed her eyes and took control of the last saibaman. 'I hate to do this to you Yancha, but I have to. It's the way it has to go.' she thought. The saibaman clung to Yancha's back and exploded, killing Yancha in an instant.

The other's eyes widened. "Yancha, NO!" Tien shouted.

Nappa and Vegeta laughed. "Well that's one weakling down," chuckled Nappa.

Athena just turned her head to the side. She didn't want to do it, but it had to be done.

"Your going to pay for that," threatened Tien. He stepped forward, as did Piccolo, Chaozu, Krillin, and Gohan.

Nappa stepped forward, "Well we are all out of saibamen, so I guess that I am just going to have to take you all on by myself."

Athena looked at them and calculated there power levels. She started to panic a little, 'If they all fight, then Nappa won't be able to handle them all.'

Nappa and the others began to fight. Nappa seemed to be winning at first. But as the fight went on his power level started to drop, and the others were doing better. Then Athena got an idea. She closed her eyes again and tapped into Chaozu's mind. 'You must sacrifice your self to save the others… it's the only way.'

Chaozu stopped for a moment. 'Who are you, and what are you talking about.'

"I'm… a friend here to help you out. Look, he is planning to make a big move that will kill you all. The only way you can stop that is to blow your self up and take him with you!'

Chaozu looked at the ground, and then looked at Tien. Nappa appeared behind him and slammed him into the ground. Then Chaozu took a deep breath and flew towards Nappa. He clung to Nappa's back and got ready to explode.

"Chaozu, what are you doing?" Tien shouted.

"It's the only way. Goodbye Tien," Chaozu said moments before he exploded. There was smoke all around them. When the smoke finally cleared they saw that Nappa had survived the blast, and was barely injured.

"How did he survive that?" shouted Krillin.

Tien clenched his fists, "No… Chaozu." He looked up at Nappa, who was laughing, and said, "You monster, I…I'll kill you!" He charged.

When Tien was about to strike, Nappa held out his hand and I one fatal blow to the chest, Tien was dead.

Krillin ran to his side as he lay dead on the ground, "Tien, hang on!" He checked Tien's pulse, but he didn't have one.

Nappa snuck up on Krillin and slammed him into the side of a pile of rocks. Krillin was knocked unconscious, and lay still in the pile of rocks.

Athena turned her head and looked at the ground. It hurt her so much that she had to witness some of her friends die. She looked up just to see Nappa try to kill Gohan. Piccolo jumped in front of the blast, and it resulted in his death. She fought to hold back a river of tears when Piccolo admitted to Gohan that he was the only real friend he had. Nappa walked slowly toward Gohan. "Nappa stop!" Athena shouted.

"Why?" he asked.

Athena paused and looked around. There was no sign of Goku. 'He is supposed to be here any second now,' she mumbled to herself. She looked back at Nappa, "He is just a kid, leave him alone."

"We are going to destroy the planet any way once we use the dragon balls, so why not kill him now any way. He's going to die any way." Nappa turned back to Gohan who was shivering on the ground. He raised his hand and shot an energy beam at him. When the dust cleared Nappa saw that he wasn't dead, but safe in Goku's arms.

For those of you who are actually reading this, sorry that it took so long for this chapter to come out. I just didn't feel like doing it…lol. I realize that it's basically the same as the series, but it's the only way I could think to do it. You will see in later chapters… if you haven't figured out why Athena can't do anything.
