As Bardock lies on the ground, his consciousness fading, he feels a great sense of pride and relief as he see the golden aura of the Super Saiyan surround Torna and Vasha.
The two don't even need to look at each other. They have fought together so long that their instincts have adapted to fighting together. They dive down at Frieza from their vantage points in the sky. Vasha reaches him first, corkscrews around a punch that Frieza threw, and kicks him upwards. Torna stops Frieza's ascent with a double handed fist to the head.
Frieza crashes back into the crater that he just made from battling Bardock and is angry that the monkeys keep knocking him into the ground like some common warrior. Deciding to try something different, he doesn't raise himself from the ground, but rather stays underneath the earth. Raising a single finger towards the sky, he begins to charge a death ball.
Torna and Vasha float side by side in the sky high above, waiting for Frieza to show himself. When he doesn't show up after two minutes have passed, they begin to wonder what he has planned, but are not foolish enough to charge into the hole where he could be waiting for them. Crossing their arms, they are determined to wait and deal with whatever the tyrant brings to the fore.
Frieza laughs to himself at the irony of the situation. The monkeys provided the perfect cover for his blast. While they wait above as not to run into an ambush, he is steadily charging the death ball to full power. The crater is so deep that even at full size it is hidden from view to those above. With a confident smirk, he launches the gigantic ball of energy at the two Saiyans.
The two Super Saiyans are shocked at the sheer size of the attack that is coming towards them. Then they both dodge the ball. One shoots over to the left and one to the right. Unfortunately, it is only after this that they see that they cannot allow it to simply go out into space as their moon is directly in it's pathway. Looking at each other and nodding, the two fly upwards, straining to catch up with the power ball. When they catch up to it, Torna gets in front of the ball and strains to hold it back while Vasha fires a beam of energy from the side of the ball hoping to change it's trajectory.
Frieza, seeing his chance, launches himself out of the crater and slams himself into Vasha before she can push it far enough. At the unexpected full force of the power ball, it slips from Torna's hands and resumes it's flight towards the moon. Neither Torna or Vasha are fast enough to catch up with it a second time. Every Saiyan on the planet watches in horror as their most precious possession is about to be destroyed. Suddenly a golden streak of light flies from the sidelines and with a powerful two handed punch, slams the ball to the side sending it flying harmlessly by the moon.
"What!" Shouts Frieza outraged. "Another one!"
"Gohan!" yells Vasha. "Wait, no, that doesn't feel like Gohan. That feels like…" Turning she looks at Torna who is equally shocked. "Impossible…"
The figure comes flying down and stops face to face with Frieza. "You! But- It can't be!"
Crossing his arms, the Saiyan smirks at Frieza full of pride. "Yes Frieza. It is I. Bardock."
AN: Short but such an excellent place to finish. And yes, this time I have no excuse. This time it is my fault and no one else's that this chapter is so late. Blame me all you want. But like I said, it may be slow, but it will be completed. As for the pairing, well, I already knew who it was going to be when I started this fic, and I think you'll like it. Oh, and dont worry. I'm back on a roll now that I've figured out how Frieza is going to die... I'm starting the next chapter now. (I won't make any promises about when it will be updated, so that I don't end up dissapointing.)
