Here's some action for ya, and I sure do hope you guys like Goku... but I will not spoil anything so just read on my friends. And constant thanks to Yamato. Please review like he does, readers, pleeaassee.
Goku, strained and exhausted from the constant instant transmissions, finally settled on the surface of New Namek. He glanced around and finally saw his target standing in the corner of what looked to be a Namekian household.
"Dende, how's it going?" Goku asked, genuinely excited.
"It's been very peaceful thanks to you and the others, but what brings you here so… suddenly?" Dende asked, hinting at his out-of-nowhere appearance.
"It's Bulma, we have to… wish her back," Goku said, his heart feeling the sting with every word.
"I can sense that you care for her more than you physically let on. Very well, I shall get the dragon balls. One of the wise men here had a premonition and they were collected a few days before u arrived here today," Dende explained.
"Then why did you seem surprised when I came?" Goku asked, intrigued.
Dende glanced around, "You landed in my bathroom."
Goku now began to scan the room for the first time. It was definitely the bathroom. "Sorry," Goku apologized as he exited the room and went as far as going outside.
Goku searched the plains of New Namek and found nothing, but a peaceful environment. He wished every planet could be as harmless as this one. He then wished he could spend time with Bulma here; just for while.
Goku's sensed purged as six huge ki signatures appeared to his left. They were still outside of the planet's atmosphere, but the power of each signature was overwhelming; each one just as strong as a Super Saiyan.
Dende stepped beside Goku, a dreaded look plaguing his features. "What are we going to do, Goku?" Dende asked.
Goku put one hand down on Dende's shoulder, "Wish Bulma back and…" Goku stopped. Should he wish her back to Earth or wish her here? Goku pondered until he felt the power levels getting too close for comfort. "Wish Bulma back and wish her here. Use the other wish as you see fit and I'll take care of whatever's coming this way."
Goku nodded as he accepted the decision in his mind. Suddenly, a golden aura ignited all around him as his hair matched the color and his strength matched the power. Goku then quickly blasted off towards the group of ki signatures with the power of a Super Saiyan 2.
Goku landed just thirty yards away from the horde of creatures causing them all to abruptly stop and stare at the threat. "Are you just going to stand there? I think I deserve an explanation," Goku demanded.
The six creatures dropped to the ground and one stepped forward. This one's skin was red and scales covered some of its body. It wore pants identical to a Saiyan Warrior, but no shirt; leaving its scaly, chiseled upper body visible. Its eyes were black; only the iris showed any color, red.
"My name is Haldor. My two squads and I have been dispatched to… rid the universe of your presence," The alien said with a smirk.
Goku grimaced; he hated this part. "I don't want to kill you. I'm begging you… please leave," Goku said, trying to save the group from what was to come.
Each one broke out into mocking laughter. Then, two more from the group stepped forward.
The one on the left looked slightly human, except for the dark green hue of its skin and the two slits on its face representing its nose. It wore tight, black pants with a padded, muscle shirt; the chest showed a slight feminine bulge.
The one two the right was…dead? Goku examined it closer: it was covered in tattered clothing, but under the cloth was nothing but bones. Still, it walked and had a power level higher than most living people in the universe.
Goku quickly got in a fighting stance as Haldor pointed one, red finger his way. "Tanith… Osiris, bring him to his knees," Haldor commanded.
The two warriors powered up; dark orange auras whirling around both of them. Without warning, they pushed off the ground and closed the gap within a second. Goku instinctively dodged an out of nowhere kick by Osiris, the skeleton, and returned the favor. Osiris flipped over from the force of the kick, but landed on his feet.
Suddenly, Tanith was in front of him firing away with a barrage of kicks and punches. Goku easily blocked every strike that was thrown his way. "Give up, I don't… want… to… hurt you," Goku said in between blocks.
Tanith then locked both of Goku's arms under her own. Goku struggled, but the alien was powerful. "It's a pity we're going to have to kill you," The feminine voice said seductively. Goku struggled to free himself as a long, forked tongue snaked out of Tanith's mouth and slid up his cheek.
Goku's head suddenly snapped back as Tanith struck him with a head butt. The split second he was stunned was all Tanith needed; she struck him with a kick to the stomach and sent him spiraling to the ground. Goku impacted hard and found himself in a small crater.
"Please leave, don't make me kill you," Goku pleaded. Once again, he was answered with laughter from all the aliens. Goku mentally accepted their answer and began to power up; no more games. The crater suddenly erupted with a flash of brilliant yellow light as Goku's hair stretched down below his back.
"What? That's impossible," Tanith hissed from somewhere about Goku. She could that think all she wanted to; she brought it upon herself, Goku thought.
Goku then erupted from the crater and within a split second closed the gap between him and his foe. Goku took a millisecond to soak in the horrified look on Tanith's face before he crushed it with his elbow. Tanith flew to the ground below, but was dead before she connected with it.
"HARETSU!" Osiris screamed from the side. Goku glanced over and immediately leaped sideways into the air as an energy disc shot past him. Goku landed and quickly turned to watch the disc. It sliced through boulder sitting out amongst a group of large mountain debris; the boulder then erupted in flash orange light and fire.
Goku turned away from it and was immediately met by Osiris. Osiris, blatantly seething over the death of his comrade, threw sloppy, hate filled punches. Goku easily blocked every strike and then returned with one of his own. The knee to the "stomach" connected perfectly as exposed bones snapped from the force of the blow. Osiris flew into two pieces as Goku's knee had snapped his spine.
Goku calmly turned away from the halved skeleton and towards the four remaining soldiers. "Now will you leave?" Goku asked, kindness still residing in his heart.
Haldor turned towards his comrades and whispered something. Then, the three aliens next to him launched up into the sky and away from the planet. "They were much too weak to face an adversary like you, but the other warriors of Earth might have a hard time with them," Haldor said with a smirk.
Goku's eyes went wide; he had to get back to Earth to warn the others. "Why are you doing this?" Goku asked.
"For peace…" Haldor said as he smoothly slid into a fighting stance.
Goku reluctantly did the same, "You're not going to make it off this planet alive."
"Then so be it!" Haldor powered up; a rippling red aura pulsing around him. Haldor then disappeared and reappeared in front of a shocked Goku. The moment was all Haldor needed as Goku felt the blunt pain of Haldor's fist striking his face.
Goku soared back, but finally gained control and slid to a stop. Goku then shot forward while launching off several small energy attacks at Haldor. Every one of the attacks connected, creating a large cloud of smoke. Haldor then erupted through the smoke with a devilish smirk, unharmed. Goku quickly came from the side; smashing his foot into Haldor's temple.
The force of the kick sent Haldor to the ground; a crater opening up upon his landing. Haldor stood from the crater; his face twisted with anger, "How dare you make a fool of me!" The crater then erupted with orange light and Haldor launched out of it at a blinding speed.
Goku blocked Haldor's first strike, but the rest came so quick Goku was lost in the flurry. He could feel every strike bruising his body and every bruise weakening the bone. Goku finally found his opportunity and seized it; he snatched Haldor by the arm and drove a knee into his back. Haldor shrieked in pain, but was unmoving as Goku tightened his grip around his arm.
"Leave this planet, now!" Goku demanded. Goku could tell what he was dealing with and he was now bargaining for his own life.
"After your death!" Haldor replied. Haldor then contorted his body in such a way that made Goku gasp. Haldor then wrapped his legs around Goku's neck, flipped over, and launched Goku towards the ground. Goku hit the ground, but didn't stop. His body slid across the ground; leaving a deep trail in its wake.
Goku stood, knowing he would have to end this one quick, "Your weak. I bet you don't even know how to use your ki." Goku brushed his shoulder off and taunted the red beast.
Haldor roared in anger and threw both his hands out in front of him, "I'll show you ki, mother fucker!" A blood red ball of energy began to form in Haldor's hands; it grew bigger until it was two times bigger than Haldor himself.
"What are you waiting for?" Goku asked, still taunting Haldor.
"DEN… KI!" Haldor roared out and suddenly the energy ball erupted in size and launched towards Goku at an insane speed.
Goku's eyes went wide at the sight and he now regretted his decision to mock the alien. Goku knew he couldn't just let this hit the planet, or else there wouldn't be a planet anymore. Goku finally launched forward and struck the ball of energy with his shoulder.
Haldor suddenly appeared beside, "Say good bye, Saiyan."
Goku found his opportunity; his last opportunity. Goku quickly disappeared and reappeared behind Haldor. He quickly slammed foot into Haldor's back; knocking him into the path of his own ki sphere. Goku then disappeared again and reappeared behind Haldor.
"Just another one of those stories I tell my grandchildren," Goku said as he launched his shoulder into Haldor's back. The force of the strike propelled Haldor and his energy attack into the air.
Goku then formed a ball of energy in his right hand and quickly launched it into the air. The ball of energy streamlined its way straight through Haldor's back and into the ki sphere.
First, all sound was sucked away from the planet. Then, in an instant, it was returned with a deafening eruption of light and fire. The force of the explosion quickly slammed into Goku and sent him flipping end over end towards the ground. Goku hit the ground hard and felt his Super Saiyan status slip away as black splotches threatened to overcome his vision.
Goku fought it and stood up; he had to get to Bulma and he had to get back to Earth. Goku leapt into the air, but stopped as he sensed a faint ki signature where the explosion had been. Goku slowly turned, knowing it was impossible, and stared at the smoke dissipating in the air.
Haldor, a hole in his chest, bruised, bloodied, and broken, still hovered in the air. "You'll have to do better than that, Saiyan," Haldor yelled out to Goku, his voice sounding weak.
Suddenly, Goku fell to the ground, trapped under a monumental weight. Goku glanced back and… Osiris was on top of him? Goku smiled; half of a skeleton would be a piece of cake to handle. Goku situated himself to stand, but was flattened back out. Goku then watched as Osiris's skeletal structure fused the ground; metaphorically creating Goku's tomb.
