Collector Saga

Over the year Chiaotzu, Krillin, 18, Videl, and Yamcha retired from fighting but the saiyans, Tein and Piccolo kept it up. Ever since Trunks saw Future Trunks fight he started acting like him. When Tak returned to earth Vegeta welcomed him with flying fists. Tak was barley off the ship and was already defending himself against Vegeta.

Once Goku and Gohan pulled Vegeta off him Tak said hello to everyone.

"I've been wearing 500 pounds wrist bands a 1700 vest and 5000 belt, as well as train in 10000x earths gravity, think you can handle it ragin?" asked Vegeta smirking.

"You just have to be the strongest ever don't you? I just hope you're not to strong," said Tak.

"Why not? You want to be the strongest as well?" asked Vegeta laughing.

"No, I don't care of you're stronger than me, I just hope the Collector doesn't notice as he passes," said Tak.

"Who's the Collector?" asked Goten as he flew up to the others with Pan on his tail.

"Why don't I tell you all together so everyone knows," said Tak.

Goku nodded and he, Gohan, Goten, and Pan flew off. Tak sealed up his ship and locked it up.

"Lead the way Vegeta," said Tak.

Vegeta snarled and took off at breakneck speed. Tak was close behind. They landed at Roshi's house where the whole group was waiting.

"Ah, you must be Tak," said Master Roshi as he offered his hand. Tak shook it and smiled.

"Nice to finally meet you Master Roshi," said Tak.

"Now that we all know each other, who's this Collector you mentioned?" asked Gohan.

"He's a timeless beast. He travels all over the galaxies collecting the strongest of each species, he already has a human, saiyan, namik, and ragin so I hope he ignores up as he passes," said Tak.

"What do you mean, when was he last on earth?" asked Tein.

"Centuries ago," said Tak.

"Wouldn't the human be dead?" asked Goku.

"No he preserves those he captures, they live as long as they don't leave his ship, if they do, they start ageing again where they left off. He makes them fight for his entertainment," said Tak.

"Well I say we let him come, we can defeat him, even if I can't Tak can," said Vegeta.

"No, no one can beat him, all those he collected tried but he defeated every last one, and the ragin he has is stronger than me or you Vegeta," said Tak.

"What do we do if he lands?" asked Pan.

"We fight and distract him while someone else sneaks aboard his ship and released his prisoners, then with us and all he captured, who he's been training to make them stronger, we can defeat him," said Tak.

"Will that work?" asked Goten.

"We can only hope," said Tak.

That night Tak sleep at Master Roshi's house. In the morning Tak went outside and was immediately depressed, the Collector was headed for earth. Tak went to Goku's house and got Goku, Gohan, Goten and Pan, they then went to capsule corp. and got Vegeta, and Trunks. The group started into the wilderness and found Tein, Piccolo was at Dende's lookout. Once they were all together Tak told them they had about a week before he would arrive. They spent that week in extreme training and when they saw the ship coming in they all flew off to intercept it. The group arrived just in time to see the gigantic ship land and the Collector walk out. He looked like a namik only with black skin and blue muscle patches. His eyes were red and he didn't have the antenna of a namek but he did have the pointed ears. He was wearing a cape like Piccolo's and fusion pants and shoes.

"Ah, so you decided to assemble and allow me to do my work and leave this reached place, how nice," said the Collector.

"Who are you here to collect?" asked Tak.

"The ragin Tak, the saiyan Goku, the human Krillin, the sun god Chiaotzu, his guardian Tein, the android 18, and the namek Piccolo. I would have gotten Gohan as well but you turned him from a half saiyan to a full saiyan," said the Collector.

"Why are you after Kakorrot and not me, I thought you wanted the strongest saiyan," said Vegeta.

"I do, he is," said the Collector.

"How can a low level saiyan be stronger than the saiyan prince?" demanded Vegeta.

"Calm down Vegeta, I don't think we want him to take us, do we?" asked Gohan.

Vegeta scowled. Tak looked at Pan and nodded, then to Goku and Gohan.

"So, will you be coming peacefully, or is an arena in order?" asked the Collector.

"What do you mean arena, were not entering your ship under any circumstances, we can fight here," said Goku.

"I plan to, would you like me to alter the terrene to make the fight easer?" asked the Collector.

"No, this is fine," said Vegeta turning SS1 and charging the Collector.

The collector didn't see Vegeta coming and took a hard hit in the face. There was no effect, but it was diversion enough to let pan get to the ship. The Collector smacked Vegeta away and took off his cape. Piccolo did the same and they disappeared. There was an explosion and one of the fighters was sent far into the ground. When Piccolo appeared in the sky everyone, Tak included thought he might win the battle over all. The Collector slowly flew from the crater. He raised his hand and shot a single blue blast that went through Piccolo's body and immediately took him out of the fight.

Before Piccolo's body hit the ground SS2 Vegeta slammed into the Collector and sent him flying. Goku gave Piccolo a senzu and Piccolo sealed the hole in his torso. The Collector appeared behind Vegeta and punched him in the back of the head sending him through many trees. Out of nowhere SS2 Goten appeared and gave the Collector an uppercut to the chin that sent him high into the air where SS3 Trunks waited with a burning attack. The blast sent the Collector into Tak's waiting fists where the Collector received a brutal beating before he was sent down into Piccolo's swinging foot which sent the Collector back high into the air where he was hit by two Super Kamehameha's, one from Goku, the other from Gohan. Once the blasts had subsided a Final Flash hit the Collector from below. The Collector was nearly on the ground when he was hit with a full force Tri-beam from Tein.

Each fighter was at their max during the assault and were each beat. Trunks passed around senzu's and they were all ready for it again by the time the Collector was on his feet.

"Quite powerful indeed, it seems as though I will require assistance," said the Collector and everyone looked at Tak who was as surprised as them.

The Collector smiled.

"Your female friend is currently stuck trying to get past the door into my ship. Does she want to fight as well or is she giving up, or maybe, this is part of your plan Tak? Well it won't work, she'll never get past that door," said the Collector with a grin.

Tak went SR and charged the Collector but before he could attack the Collector punched him dead in the face. Tak was sent far back and made a dent when he landed. He slowly got up and looked at the Collector and saw his friends fighting.

Tak saw SS4 Vegeta knee the Collector in the side of the head and the Collector grab Vegeta's head and slam it into the ground and Vegeta instantly go normal. SS4 Goku came up behind the Collector only to get elbowed in the gut and go normal as well. SS3 Gohan and SS3 Trunks come from opposite sides to pin the Collector between two fists. The Collector ducked and punched each in the chin, they both became normal. SS2 Goten and Tein double-teamed the Collector only to have their heads smacked together. Piccolo shot a blast and disappeared. He reappeared behind the Collector and was about to kick him in the head but the Collector spun around and kneed him in the face. SS3 Pan came from nowhere screaming about her father and grandfather. The Collector delivered one punch to he face and she became normal and fell to the ground. All the saiyan's were unconscious. Piccolo's neck was broken and couldn't move and Tein was out cold.

Tak screamed. The Collector turned and looked at him. Wind was rushing from him and a crater formed beneath him. Trees and rocks were flying everywhere. His muscles started to bulge and his hair turned black and his eyes turned silver. Tak's arms were raised above his head and he was looking up screaming. Then he stopped screaming and lowered his arms. He looked at the Collector and said, "Die for your sins."

Tak charged the Collector and punched him in the face and sent him flying into the side of his ship. The Collector came back and kicked Tak in the gut. Tak hunched over and another Collector came and kicked him in the face sending him up and back.

"Where did he come from?" asked Tak enraged.

"I split myself into two beings each with half my original strength," said the Collector.

"Ya, now you will die," said the copy.

"Do you already have one of your own race in your collection?" asked Tak.

"No," said the Collector.

"Well, why don't you, the original go in a cell and be part of the collection, you give the keys and everything to the copy and it runs the ship and collection," said Tak.

"Why wouldn't I put the copy in the cell?" asked the Collector.

"So you can keep you collection true to itself," said Tak.

"That's a good idea," said the Collector.

"Wait, there's something wrong with it," said Tak.

"What, what's wrong?" asked the Collector.

"Are the cells strong enough to hold you, at your full power?" asked Tak.

"They wouldn't need to be," said the Collector.

"Yes, if the copy is asleep you get your full power, the cell will need to be able to contain it," said Tak.

"Oh, well, yes they can, I test every week," said the Collector.

"I'll wait here and move my friends while you take care of that," said Tak and the Collector nodded.

Both the Collector and his copy went into the ship and Tak took the senzu's from Trunks and revived his friends. Tak told them what happened and that they should act unconscious as to not appear suspicious. Not one of them said anything about Tak's eyes and hair or the fact that it appeared as though he was fighting to control himself. The copy of the Collector walked back to the group and Tak beat it to a bloody pulp. It split into an army; each one was slightly stronger that Tak and they got dumber down the line.

Tak was unprepared, if he killed one the rest would be stronger. Then a blast came from the right and started hitting the copies and another from the left. The copies tried to fight the blasts but they were to weak and when the blasts hit they exploded and killed all the copies. The smoke cleared and SS3 Gotenks and SS4 Gogeta flew down to stand in front of Tak. The fusions went normal saiyan and the others walked up to Tak who was still in his new form. Tak walked over to the smoking rubble of the bodies and picked something up. He walked to the Collector's ship and went in. the fusions were defused by the time he came back. The ship took off and Tak tossed Trunks something.

"That's the keys, he's secure in there but if I let the others out I'll have to let him out. It'll be on the moon if you figure out a way," said Tak before becoming normal and falling on his face.

The first thing Tak saw when he woke up was Pan staring into his eyes. He was on a couch at Goku's house and he could here fighting outside.

"Are you okay? You hit your face pretty hard," said Pan.

"Ya, I'm fine, how's everyone else?" asked Tak.

"Better than you, they're all training outside," said Pan.

Pan left and Tak followed.

"Hay, Tak! How ya' feeling?" asked Gohan.

"Fine, I'd be in a cell right now if not for Gogeta and Gotenks," said Tak.

"How does it feel to be out classed by a saiyan?" asked Vegeta.

"Not bad, but I think I'm gaining, I went SR2 earlier today," said Tak.

"No you didn't, you went SR2 yesterday," said Trunks.

"Whatever," said Tak.

"Are there 4 SR stages like there are SS?" asked Goten.

"I doubt it, ragin's don't have tails," said Tak.
