Chapter 6: "Rescue Mission"
As soon as she ran toward the tunnel's light, she saw it was filled with dust and... a small piece of red cloth.
"Red cloth? Isn't that...?" Flashes of Saiyaman's cape came back from her memory. "...It's Saiyaman's! Don't worry, Saiyaman! I'm coming!"
She ran to the entrance even faster.
She hurried to a stop when she heard voices.
"Should we kill him, now, Black Rain?"
"No, White Silver. We should wait."
"Why are you stopping us?" The third one of the group asked.
Agitated, Black Rain said, "I would like to see how strong he is. If he's a full blooded saiyan, I want to know who he is. The only surviving saiyans were me, Kakkarot, Vegeta and Nappa. I know Kakkarot and Nappa are dead, but I don't know about Vegeta."
"Vegeta..." White Silver said with disgust. "The Prince of all Saiyans. He was a loyal servant until he betr-"
Black Rain interrupted, "I sense someone."
"It's that saiyan, Black Rain."
"No, it's someone else. A human." Black Rain said as he shot an energy blast at the corner.
A big portion of the wall was broken off and the murky water splashed Videl.
"Ah, just as I suspected. A weak human."
Videl gasped as the shockingly cold water touched her skin. "Who are you all?"
Then she spotted Saiyaman. She raced over to him and shook him, trying to wake him up. He was chained to the sewer wall, his pale lower face dripping with sweat.
"Saiyaman, wake up! These freaks need to be beat up!" Videl got worried.
"Freaks?" Black Rain yelled.
"Uh-oh..." Videl breathed.
" 'Uh-oh' is right, human. You're going to pay for eavesdropping on our conversation."
"Ah!" Videl ducked his punch and tried her own. She hit a steel wall, or at least what seemed like one.
"Nice try, girl, but not good enough!" He then shot an energy blast.
Videl didn't know what he just shot at her, so she dogded it - barely. It caught on her dress and burned the edge a little. But she didn't care. She had to save Saiyaman somehow, or at least wake him up.
Videl then dogded another energy blast. She was getting the hang of these things.
"She's tiring, Black Rain. Can I at least have a go?"
"No, Green Ivy. That girl has a lot of energy left."
Videl got up with a few scratches on her, "I'm not giving up, creeps." Her breathing was heavy.
Green Ivy said thoughtfully, "That girl... She reminds me of that fool, Hercule. He was weak, so this girl should be just as easy. Stop playing around, Black Rain."
"He might be toying with me, but I'm not!" Videl said with force as she punched Black Rain.
He didn't budge.
And there wasn't even a scratch.
"What? His face is like steel!"
"Funny you should mention steel, because I'm going to bend you like steel!" Black Rain yelled as he charged at her.
Videl jumped over her and tried to kick him.
It just crushed her toes.
Black Rain grabbed her leg and slammed her to the wall.
Videl slowly got up. Her body was soaked and she had bruises on her face. I have no chance at winning... If only Saiyaman would wake up!
But he was still out cold.
-at Capsule Corp-
"What do you mean, you didn't find them?" Chichi screamed at Vegeta. She had joined Bulma at Capsule Corp. "Vegeta, if your little arrogant 'too good for us' self doesn't go and find my baby, I'll-"
"Calm down, Chichi. He'll find him." Bulma interrupted her friend from doing anything she would regret.
Vegeta simply said, "They hid their power levels so I couldn't sense them."
-in the sewer-
Black Rain held the needle sharp container that sucked Saiyaman's energy earlier. "We should give the saiyan back his energy. At least he'll be a challenge."
He stuck the needle in Saiyaman's arm and in seconds, he had his energy back.
Videl looked on in wonder as Saiyaman returned to normal. She was saved!
Saiyaman easily broke the chains that held him down and the walls crumbled. The only one surprised was Videl.
But then one of the chains caught on his helmet. The orange helmet slid off, revealing his identity.
And when Videl shouted out, "Gohan?" in surprise, Green Ivy, White Silver and Black Rain looked at the half saiyan with a very frightened look on face. And it wasn't because they didn't know him.
Now Videl knows who Saiyaman is! But who are the three enemies? Find out in the next chapter!(Although, if you think about it, you should be able to figure out who Black Rain and White Silver are through the dialogue by now.)
