Desperation on Namek! A New Warrior?!

Black clouds, the only sign of the legendary Eternal Dragon, blanket the sky as four warriors collide in an epic 3-on-1 battle. Frieza ducks beneath Goku's flying kick, sending the saiyan flying far ahead. Then, the tyrant grabs Vegeta's hand and sends him flying past an approaching Zamasu.

The two most powerful warriors descend into a short melee match, but Frieza quickly gains the upper hand. The tyrant's tail, previously forgotten by Zamasu, slaps the kai-saiyan across the back, hurtling him into a nearby island.

Another flying punch comes from Goku on one side and Vegeta on the other. Frieza looks between them both, then flies upward rapidly. The two saiyans quickly freeze in their tracks, preventing the collision, but are left unguarded in the process. Frieza descends just as quickly and slams the two down below, an eruption of water spraying from their impact.

Suddenly, Frieza feels something fly past himself. He turns and his eyes widen when he sees purple ki needles flying past him at immense speeds. Frieza begins to weave in between the needles, desperate to avoid them, and unable to properly hone in on where the monkey who is firing them is.

Vegeta flies out of the water, his clothes drenched and his face set in rage, but then pauses as he sees the display above. The prince watches as Frieza avoids the needles, which he quickly deduces is coming from Zamasu, and then notices Frieza getting impaled by one. The tyrant grunts in pain and his movements slow, almost as if the needle is restricting his movements. Vegeta's eyes widen in the realization of Zamasu's plan and he quickly begins to add his own contribution.

Frieza ignores the sickly feeling of the foreign energy invading his system. He can tell it is slowing him down, but with power as immense as his, he barely feels a thing. Then, a sharp sting hits his back. Frieza turns and sees Vegeta, his hands glowing with built-up energy. The tyrant only has a split second before Vegeta yells and begins sending a volley of energy blasts at Frieza.

The emperor begins weaving between the two volleys at the same time. Frieza tsks in annoyance when one of Vegeta's blasts connect but then hisses as another needle hits his body. His movements slow, and more blasts and needles begin to connect.

Meanwhile, Goku rises out of the water near where the needles are being fired from. The earth-raised saiyan watches Frieza's movements continue to slow. "What's your plan with this," Goku asks curiously.

Zamasu, his hand a blur as he continues sending more and more ki needles, replies, "If we restrict his movements enough, you can use that Dragon Fist technique to finish him off. It is designed to defeat opponents more powerful than yourself, yes?"

Goku's eyes widen in alarm. "But it still needs improvements! I don't know if it'll be able to go through someone as strong as Frieza!"

Zamasu growls in annoyance, sweat on his brow from using so much ki on the volley. "We don't have time for what if's! Hurry and use it! Frieza is frozen!"

Said tyrant feels his body freeze completely, needles all throughout. The pain is excruciating, the foreign energy flowing into his system like poison, contracting all his muscles and preventing them from moving. Frieza's face of rage melts into confusion as he sees golden energy building near an island. "Gold," the tyrant mumbles. "None of them have golden energy."

Then, without warning, Goku rockets into sight. A bright, golden aura flows around the saiyan, his teeth grit in concentration as his fist ignites with raw power. Frieza's eyes widen upon seeing the energy and he quickly begins raising his power.

A resounding bellow of "DRAGON FIST!" comes from Goku's lips. A mighty roar accompanies the arrival of a golden dragon. The figure is rough and unrefined, but definitely more powerful than when Goku used it on Vegeta.

A resounding BOOM echoes across the landscape as Goku collides with Frieza's unguarded stomach. Goku grits his teeth and pours as much power as he can into the technique, trying desperately to push past Frieza's defenses. Frieza does the same, his power rapidly climbing, his face set in rageful exertion as he tries to prevent this strange technique from penetrating his torso.

After a few moments of this battle of power, Frieza's mouth opens and he begins to let out a low scream. His purple aura flares to life and begins pushing outward. Goku's eyes widen as he feels the aura push him away. He tries to fight back, but he can't muster the power to push past.

Frieza emits a furious roar as his power erupts into a supernova of energy. All of the ki needles in Frieza's body disintegrate instantly, nothing but momentary sparkles showing their previous existence. The dragon around Goku's body fluctuates dangerously. Goku tries desperately to hold the attack together, but it's in vain. The dragon's body pulses again, then explodes. Goku yells as he is sent flying away from the powered-up emperor.

Vegeta and Zamasu fly next to each other, Goku slowly joining them. Zamasu and Vegeta are exhausted, a good portion of their energy spent on their volleys. Goku grits his teeth in pain, his body covered in burns from the Dragon Fist's explosion.

Up in the air, Frieza's aura roars with malicious power and immense intensity. Frieza uses the same pose as when he first transformed into his final form, but this time his hands are clenched tightly. Frieza frowns deeply and says, "To think, a bunch of monkeys forced me to use 20% of my power!"

As the three saiyans' eyes widen in horror at those facts, Frieza's face sets into a dangerous snarl. "You dare make me exert myself, to show effort in a fight?! Behold my immense power, for it will be the last thing you ever lay your eyes upon!"

The already immense aura flares out even more, physically pushing back the saiyans. Zamasu grits his teeth, plants his feet, then yells, "KAIOKEN x10!" A blazing red aura, nearly as powerful as Frieza's, ignites wildly into life. Goku and Vegeta, not having their own transformations (that they know how to use), simply push their auras to their maximum, pulling on as much power as they could. Red and white face off against purple and clash in the middle.

Frieza dodges the three-way attack and begins rapidly firing death beams with a yell. The three saiyans all weave between each beam with some difficulty, Zamasu less so than the other two.

Goku and Zamasu form their blades, dagger and broadsword lengths respectively, and charge with a yell. As the two of them go on a tag-team offensive against Frieza, Vegeta steps back and begins charging his ultimate attack. The very same attack that Burter disrupted when he was fighting Recoome.

Frieza ducks beneath a swipe from Goku, steps back from Zamasu's jab, then jumps back a few dozen feet. Goku and Zamasu layer their hands over each other and their blades combine into a brilliant indigo, the blade lengthening to immense proportions overhead. With a yell of "SPIRIT SWORD!" the massive blade descends onto Frieza.

The tyrant flares his aura and grabs the blade, confident in his power's ability now to protect him. Seeing as his hands didn't cut off, he is correct in his assumption. It becomes a battle of raw power as Goku and Zamasu try to overpower Frieza, but the emperor slowly begins to gain ground.

Then, a bad feeling, sixth sense, something hits Frieza's psyche. Turning his gaze to the side, he sees Vegeta with his hands cupped in front of him, a massive and volatile ball of energy pulsating in front of him. Vegeta grits his teeth, then screams, "FINAL FLASH!"

A massive yellow beam, burning with an intensity not seen yet, blitzes across the sky almost instantly. Frieza only has time to widen his eyes in surprise and fear before the blast engulfs him completely.

As the blast carries Frieza off into the distance, Vegeta pants and begins recharging his energy, most of it spent using his ultimate move. Zamasu and Goku fly next to him, Zamasu keeping the Kaioken up but at level 1 and not level 10, just in case. Goku is the first to say their thoughts. "Did… did that do it? That blast seemed REALLY strong."

Vegeta tsks, his breath returned and his energy slowly building up. "Not likely. The Final Flash is meant for opponents stronger than myself, but it can only go to about 300% of my current power. Frieza has shown he is more than x10 my strength, but the blast should've done substantial damage."

Zamasu senses a flare of energy, announcing Frieza's return to the battlefield. "I'm beginning to see a pattern when Vegeta fires big blast attacks…"

Goku and Vegeta look at Zamasu with utter shock. Zamasu turns to them with a raised eyebrow. "What?" The two saiyans blink, then turn away, Goku muttering something that sounded suspiciously like, "...he said a joke. we're gonna die."

The three are snapped out of their thoughts as Frieza reappears. This time, compared to the Galick Gun, Frieza has taken some damage. A few bloody spots are seen on the pristine white of Frieza's body and the emperor is rightfully livid.

"Damn you," Frieza grinds out. "DAMN YOU ALL! You damaged me! I, the almighty Frieza, should not have to put forth this much effort to defeat some lowly monkeys! However, I will finish this now! 50% it is then!"

As Frieza's power rockets even higher, Goku steps back in a bit of fear, his sense of self-preservation kicking in over his excitement for battle. "What do we do now," Goku asks worriedly. "We're nearly out of options!"

Vegeta growls in irritation. "Damn it! None of your fancy tricks worked and the Final Flash didn't deal enough to take him to our level. In fact, he's going even higher than before! Damn that Frieza! He's stronger than all of our powers combined!"

Zamasu pauses his frantic thinking as he hears Vegeta's last statement. "Powers… combined?" Zamasu's hand subconsciously brushes against his ear.

It's a stupid idea. Horrible, even, for him to even consider using the tools of the gods for a mortal squabble. But… Zamasu knows he can't simply sit back and let Frieza run amok. He's seen that mortals can exist in both good and evil, just as the gods can. He doesn't want to believe it, but he can't ignore the building facts.

Zamasu closes his eyes, sweating in indignation at what he has to do. Then he sighs, his eyes open, and a stony expression of seriousness falls. "I have an idea."

The kai-saiyan grabs his earrings and pulls them off, one in each hand. He turns and quickly says, "Put these on opposite ears. They will fuse you two together for an hour. It's our only chance to defeat Frieza right now!"

Goku grabs his earring, inspecting it carefully. Vegeta, however, is taken aback by the sudden demand. "What?! Fuse with a low-class SCUM like Kakarot?! I'd never submit myself to such torture!"

Another pulse of energy is felt as Frieza continues his climb to 50%. Zamasu looks at the emperor warily, then turns to Vegeta again. "Listen, we don't have time! You two are the only ones that can fuse together! Due to my unique soul, if I fuse with you using this method, the fusion will be permanent! With you two, it'll only be an hour."

Goku, staring at Frieza, says, "Yeah! We need to fuse Vegeta! It's the only way!"

Vegeta steps back, his face looking ill of all things. "No! Absolutely not! I refuse to share a body with that idiotic clown!"

Tired of this game, Zamasu steps forward and grabs a fistful of Vegeta's shirt. Zamasu lifts Vegeta to eye level and growls in irritation. "We don't have time for this! Push past that damn pride of yours and think of what's at stake here! Are you really willing to die to Frieza like so many of your brethren, or are you going to band together with the last remaining saiyan and finally take that tyrant down?!"

Vegeta's face falls into a deep scowl as his eyes close, obviously mulling the thought over. Eventually, with a bit of struggle, Vegeta exclaims, "F-Fine! Just give me the damn earring!"

Zamasu stares at Vegeta a bit more, then nods in satisfaction. Vegeta snatches the earring instantly and glares at Zamasu with a look that can kill. "But if you ever lay your hands on me again, fake, you will regret it." Zamasu nods dismissively, not willing to argue with Vegeta right now.

The prince huffs at being ignored, then fumbles with the earring a bit. "It goes on the opposite ear, right?!" Goku nods with a grin as he puts the earring on his left ear, as opposed to Vegeta's right. "Yup! Thanks Vegeta!"

A pulse of energy comes from the earrings and the two saiyans are suddenly flying toward each other. Vegeta and Goku collide in the middle, a bright, white light erupting from the collision. Zamasu shields his eyes and feels Frieza's power calming down, showing that he finished his power-up.

"What is that," Frieza exclaims. "What are those monkeys doing?!"

Zamasu smirks as the light turns into a pillar stretching high into the sky, a shadowed silhouette inside. "Not plural, Frieza. Only one!"

The figure jumps up, then flips out of the light rapidly. The man lands in a crouch, slowly straightening up. His fit and lean body is covered in saiyan armor over a blue undershirt. Blue gi pants are over his legs, white boots over his legs. White gloves cover his hands, a single blue stripe over his wrists. His hair, wild, upright, and gravity-defying, has two bangs hanging in the front. The man looks up with a confident smirk and his eyes burn with an intensity even more powerful than any other warrior ever seen before.

The man looks at his hands and flexes them a bit, feeling his energy coursing through him. "Woah," he mutters, his dual voice laced with awe. "This is… amazing. I feel so powerful! More powerful than ever before!"

The saiyan grins widely and begins humming in thought, Frieza staring with mouth agape. "Hm. A fusion between the Saiyan Prince and the Low-Class Turned Elite? I think… Vegito. That has a good ring."

Vegito smirks widely as his aura flares. A power more immense than anything felt so far erupts from his body, taking Zamasu aback by the sheer intensity of the energy. "I, Vegito, stand at the pinnacle of all fighters. And now, I will defeat you, Frieza!" Vegito falls into a fighting stance, his eyes never losing their confident and determined gleam. "Come on!"

The book closes quickly. Chronoa's eyes are wide in surprise. "I... honestly didn't see that coming. I mean, it makes sense. Zamasu has had both earrings since King Kai's, so of course he would use them. But to think, Vegito would come this early." Chronoa turns to Trunks. "Hey, Trunks! What're your thoughts on Vegito coming in two main sagas early?!"

Trunks jumps a bit, then registers what Chronoa said. "What? Sagas?"

Chronoa waves him off. "Nevermind. News please!"

Trunks coughs, still confused, then lifts his paper. "Um... it says... the author hopes that you all enjoyed the surprise. Vegito is in the Namek Saga and two chapters in one day. Wow, that's impressive. Um! Anyways, he also says that these coming chapters might come quickly since this battle was something the author had in mind for a long time, along with a lot of plot twists and potential power-ups. He hopes you all enjoy this wild twist on the Frieza battle. And that's it."

Chronoa nods with a smile. "Seems about right. These battles are intense!" She turns, grins, and waves. "Thanks for reading! Please leave a review with your thoughts! We love to hear them! Again, thank you!"
