Hi again! Sorry for the long wait, I've been doing a lot of stuff recently. Anyways, yeah! Let's get this started (By the way, sorry if this chapter and the previous chapter aren't long enough for the amount of time I didn't release any chapters).
Chapter 3
Fields; age 761
Raditz silently cursed under his breath. This couldn't be happening! One moment, he was going to kill Kakarrot and that...whatever it is with his new ally, the next he was fighting Kakarrot with a lot of difficulty! And just when he was about to kill Kakarrot, the other saiyan kicked him away and caused him to miss!
Raditz grit his teeth. He wasn't going to lose to here ! He was Raditz! And he wouldn't simply die on this mudball, lost and forgotten to time!
And so he charged at them, his blackish aura flaring.
Ramble and Goku responded in kind, both of them powering up and speeding towards him.
Before they came close to each other, Raditz's eyes glowed purple, and fired an energy beam from his eyes that were each directed at both Goku and Ramble. Ramble, in response, shifted to his left, dodging the attack. Goku, however, crossed his arms against his chest and took both the blast that was directed at him and the blast that was directed at Ramble.
Ramble looked at Goku, with a confused look. "Why did he-" he then suddenly looked like something grave had just happened, as he looked behind him to see Piccolo, stuck in his place as he charged his attack.
"Shoot!" Ramble thought, wanting to punch himself. "I forgot about Piccolo!" Ramble looked over to Goku, and saw two big bruises on Goku's arms. Ramble proceeded to wince "Now Goku took a lot of damage!" he turned back to face Raditz, only to be greeted by a fist flying right towards his face. Thankfully, he reacted fast enough and was able to fade to his right, Raditz's fist just barely grazing his cheek.
Then, Ramble proceeded to try to kick Raditz with his right leg. But right before it made contact with Raditz, Raditz caught Ramble's leg. Once he caught his leg, Raditz proceeded to give Ramble a look that would make any non-combatant feel an overwhelming sense of dread.
Ramble, taking note about Raditz's look, pulled away and tried to punch Raditz with his left arm. Raditz, however, also caught Ramble's fist, and pulled Ramble forward.
"What the-" before Ramble could finish his sentence, Raditz proceeded to knee Ramble in the stomach, knocking the wind out of Ramble.
Then, Raditz proceeded to uppercut Ramble with his left fist, and went off on Ramble, repeatedly punching Ramble in the face.
"This isn't right! Raditz shouldn't be this strong!" Ramble thought to himself as Raditz beatdown on him.
But just as Raditz was about to deliver another blow, a loud "HA!" was yelled, as Goku fired a Kamehameha at Raditz. The iconic blue beam zoomed towards them, and made a direct hit with Raditz, sending him soaring into a nearby boulder.
"Thanks." Ramble said as he turned to face Raditz.
"N-no problem" Goku replied as he suddenly appeared next to Ramble.
They both looked intently at the direction that Raditz flew towards. Goku looked like he'd seen better days, as the top half of his Gi was completely torn away, and was covered in bruises, blood splotches, and scratches. He was also breathing hard, and seemingly barely keeping his balance. Ramble was in better shape, but still had some scratches and bruises on him.
"What's with this guy?" Goku said as Raditz pulled himself out of the rubble. "We keep throwing everything we have, but it's not working!"
"...I think I have an idea." Ramble said.
"Huh?" Goku replied. "Really?"
"Yeah, listen closely…" Ramble went on before telling him what the plan was.
As this all happened, Raditz slowly approached them. "Whatever you have planned, it won't work!" He exclaimed as he started to run towards them.
Ramble pulled away, as he finished what he had told Goku, and immediately went to go meet Raditz head-on.
Ramble and Raditz readied their fists and, once they had gotten close enough, put them forwards towards one another. Their fists clashed with each other, and both struggled to gain ground. They both went for another punch, except this time both of their punches made a direct hit with each other's faces. The force of their punches was enough to send them both flying back, sending them both back around 30 feet before they managed to catch themselves, skidding on the ground a bit. They both glared at each other, before they both pulled back their hands, and put them forward in a consecutive motion, as they started to fire ki blasts at one another. Their attacks met each other, causing small explosions to happen across the field, and causing a huge dust cloud to form. Then, after some time, they both stopped firing ki blasts and both started to charge their attacks.
"Chayote…" Ramble muttered, as he crossed his arms and opened his hands. Energy started to erupt from the palms of both hands, and he moved his hands together, combining the energy. Then, he pulled arm back, taking up all of the pent up energy in one hand.
"Double…" Raditz said under his breath, as he raised his arms into the air and opened his hands. With his hands, two balls of purple ki started to form.
"HA!" "SUNDAY!" they both yelled at the same time, as Ramble put his arm forward and Raditz put his arms down. They both realised their attacks, but instead of a clash, there was a massive explosion that covered 50 square meters of the surrounding area.
Piccolo, with his attack ready, could only look at the brawl with his teeth gritted. "Dammit...Goku's brother is moving too fast for me to get a clean hit on him." Piccolo thought to himself. "They better have a good plan, or we're all done for!"
Before the dust even settled, a loud clash of two fists colliding into each other cut through the air, blowing away the dust. Both of them glared at each for a few seconds, both of them trying to push the other one down, when suddenly Raditz proceeded to punch Ramble in the face. Ramble, having been completely open, was put into a daze as he started to fall back, but before he hit the ground, Raditz grabbed him by the neck and lifted him up into the air.
"Well? Any last words?" Raditz asked Ramble, as he started to charge an energy blast in his free hand.
Ramble simply glared at Raditz, as he tried to pry Raditz's hand from his throat.
"Nothing?" Raditz commented as he finished his attack. "THEN DI-"
Before Raditz could finish his sentence, Goku raced up behind Raditz and thrusted his elbow into Raditz's back. This made Raditz stagger a bit, as he took a considerable amount of damage. Raditz turned around, yelling "YOU DAMN-". But as he did, Ramble smirked, and he shoved the energy he was charging in his hand onto Raditz's face. This caused Raditz to be blinded, and in reaction to this, Raditz yelled out in pain, and his grip on Ramble's neck loosened. Ramble, taking advantage of this, pried Raditz's hand from his neck, and kicked off of him, and backflipped right next to Goku. As soon as Ramble touched the ground, Goku pulled his arms to his side, and proceeded to put them forward and fired off a Kamehameha.
The iconic blue beam sailed to Raditz and hit him dead on, exploding on impact. The explosion caused a blue cloud of smoke to form, covering Raditz entirely.
Goku and Ramble both braced themselves, as the smoke cleared away suddenly with Raditz going for a roundhouse kick with his left leg.
In response, Goku phased out of the way, but Ramble decided to block the attack, raising his arm. When it made contact, Ramble noticed it didn't have as much bite as any of Raditz's earlier attacks.
Ramble smirked. This was it! He just had to play his cards right. But just as he thought that, Raditz pulled away his leg, and attempted to punch Ramble with his right arm. Ramble, however, moved to his right, and closed in the distance between him and Raditz. Once he got close enough, he proceeded to uppercut Raditz with his . Before Raditz could regain composure, Ramble clenched his left fist, and punched Raditz in the face. Following up, he grabbed his left fist with his right, and thrusted his elbow into Raditz's midsection. He ended it off by pulling his right arm back, and punched Raditz's stomach with all of his power.
Raditz got knocked back, and managed to regain his balance, while holding his stomach. But before he could counter attack, he felt someone grab him from behind.
"W-what? WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" Raditz asked Goku, confused and enraged at what was happening.
"PICCOLO! DO IT NOW!" Goku yelled out, as Piccolo finished charging his ultimate attack.
Piccolo smirked. "DIE, MONSTER!" he yelled as he started to point his two fingers at the two brothers.
Raditz, realizing immediately what was going on, developed a look on his face that looked like he was seeing death. "KAKARROT, THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU'RE DOING!" he yelled. "YOU WILL DIE TOO!"
"T-that's...fine by me!" Goku responded with a smirk.
"WHA- HAVE YOU GONE INSANE?!" Raditz yelled.
"SPECIAL BEAM!" Piccolo yelled, the energy on his fingertips lashing out lighting and tearing up the ground
"WAIT!" Raditz yelled out desperately.
"CANNON!" Piccolo yelled, as the deadly attack cut through the air, making it's why to the two saiyan brothers.
The attack collided with Raditz, being stopped by Raditz's physic. But not even a short bit later, the attack managed to drill through Raditz, and cut through Goku like butter.
As the attack dissipated, Goku let go of Raditz, the former falling back, and the later falling forward.
"D-D-DAMN IIIIIIT!" Raditz yelled out as he fell towards the ground.
Goku simply smiled and did his iconic laugh as he hit the ground.
*Huh*, *huh*, "Serves you right." Piccolo commented as he started to walk towards them.
Piccolo then realized that something was amiss. Where were those two saiyans? He looked around, trying to see if they were around, but they were nowhere in sight. He tried to find their power, but he couldn't find anything. Where'd they go?
Piccolo pushed that question to the back of his mind. He had more important things to get to.
Behind a nearby rock...
Ramble smiled to himself. Events have been returned to a similar state as they were, he grabbed the corrupted patroller, and the timeline was fixed. There was nothing else needed to be done.
And with that last thought, Ramble was brought back home, not noticing the small nanobot that shouldn't be in that time period that was watching the entire fight.
