Chapter 11: Icy Vengeance Part 1
''Goku!" King Kai was trying to contact Goku, but Goku was sleeping so he couldn't hear him. ''GOKU!'' Goku groaned and woke up drowsily, ''What is it King Kai?'' King Kai's facial expression turned much more serious. ''Goku! New planet Namek is under attack by some sort of planet eater thing!'' Goku's face turned from sleepy to awake and alert.
''What's attacking the Namekians?''
Unknown by Son Goku, King Kai was getting a little ticked at Goku's curiosity. ''GOKU, I DON'T HAVE TIME TO EXPLAIN! THE NAMEKIAN RACE AS A WHOLE ARE GOING EXTINCT AS WE SPEAK, NOW GET OFF YOUR ASS AND GO SAVE THEM!'' Goku shrieked in surprise and ran to get his gi so he can head to New Namek. He was tightening up his gi and walked into the hallway and saw Gohan standing there, ready for a fight.
''Son, did you here the conversation?'' Gohan shook his head while tightening his gi belt so that his gi pants wouldn't fall off. ''No but I heard you say something about Namekians and something attacking it so I got ready too so I can help you save em'.'' Goku smiled at his son's eagerness to jump into danger to save another race of innocent people.
Goku and Gohan finished tightening their gi belts and Goku walked over to Gohan. ''Gohan, place your hand on my arm,'' Gohan did as commanded and grabbed onto his dad's gi and Goku put tow fingers to his forehead. He concentrated on Vegeta's ki, but found that he wasn't on planet. He then picked up on Trunks ki and vanished along with Gohan to the Brief family house.
Bulma was currently in her office, finishing the destination system for her new space ship that she was working on. Bra was washing the dishes in the house and Trunks was training by himself in the Gravity Room. Bulma had just finished with the destination systems programming and was shocked to see Goku and Gohan appear out of thin air.
''GOKU! Learn how to knock on a persons door instead of doing that!'' Goku sheepishly scratched the back of his head while Gohan started to snicker at his fathers actions.
''So why are you here?'' Bulma looked on as Gohan's face went from one of playfulness to seriousness. ''Well, an unknown person is attacking New Namek and we want to know if you know the location of the planet,'' Gohan looked for an answer and Bulma smirked. ''Well todays your lucky day because not only do we have the location, we also have a space ship ready to departure off to the planet.''
Goku smiled and Gohan mimicked his fathers actions. Like they say, like father like son. ''Thanks Bulma, so when can we depart to New Namek?'' Bulma rolled her eyes in a girly manner. ''Like right now!'' Gohan laughed at his father again like any other 8 year old would do. Gohan then contacted Piccolo through their mental bond.
'Piccolo, are you coming to Namek with us?' Piccolo was already flying to their location while they were holding a mental conversation. 'I'm already flying to your location'. Gohan nodded and closed off his conversation with Piccolo. ''Dad, Piccolo's coming with us!'' Goku nodded and saw Bra coming over to where they were standing. ''Do you need any assistance because me and Trunks can help.''
Goku waved it off and refused the offer. ''Thanks for the offer, but we don't need more casualties on the battlefield, besides you can fight very well with an ankle like that.'' It was true, during the fight with the androids in their time plus the training she has done, her foot needed a lot of rest to heal up back into fighting condition.
Krillin had just landed at the building ready for action, though the top of his spinal cord which rendered him paralyzed for a month due to King smashing it with his fist, wasn't able to be healed with a senzu bean therefore needed to be healed by Dende.
Piccolo had also landed and was waiting at where the ship was, laying his back against its outer surface. ''Okay, so are we all set?''. Gohan sensed Krillin and Piccolo arrive so he thought they might've been ready to take off. Bulma nodded and led the way to the space ship. ''Before you go, I must give you a quick tour as you can see, its pretty massive.''
The group followed Bulma inside the Space Ship and there was a control deck at the head of the ship. ''This is the control deck where you can monitor everything that's going on around you in space, like a meteor shower or something like that,'' Bulma continued on to four different wide spaced rooms. ''These are your personal rooms to sleep or do as you please.''
Gohan was nodding in interest and affirmation while everyone else was just normal. Bulma went up to the top layer of the ship and pointed out to various things in the room. ''This is the kitchen with food already supplied for you that is enough to feed a group of Saiyans for years on end. Also, there are the showers and the rest rooms. This reinforced glass panel over here is a room where you can watch people train in the gravity room.''
Bulma then pushed a button on the wall and there was an elevator that led down to the Gravity Room which took up the whole middle to back space of the ship. ''This is the grand finale, the gravity room which has walls so durable that they can tank the most powerful of blasts or blows to it without a scratch or dent. This was proven by Gohan, who was in Super Saiyan when he tried to obliterate these walls.''
Bulma then turned to the group and stuck his arms out. ''Wallah there you go! Its outfitted with all your needs so without further ado, you can go to Namek! Oh and just a warning... the trip is two weeks long.'' Bulma exited the ship in general and fired off the engines. Gohan and the rest looked out of the windows and waved to everyone.
Suddenly. Chi Chi ran out to the field and started having a fit of pure fury. ''GOHAN! GET BACK DOWN HERE! YOU CAN'T JUST LEAVE ME LIKE THIS AGAIN, YOU'RE NOT EVEN NINE YEARS OLD!" Gohan's own anger began to rise at his mothers obsessiveness with him studying and becoming a great scholar when an extraterrestrial race was being subjected into being slaves.
However, a mothers plea was too late as the ship blasted off before Chi Chi could say anything else. Chi Chi looked shock for a moment before she angrily turned towards Bulma and tackling her, knocking Bulma's slippers off of her feet. ''Why did you send my little boy on a very dangerous trip!'' Bulma looked a little frightened at the angry Chi Chi's demeanor until Bra came over and pulled Chi Chi off of Bulma, surprising Chi Chi with her strength.
''Back off Chi Chi!'' Bra kept tugging back as Chi Chi had an inhuman grip on Bulma's ankle while she was mad at Bulma. ''Hey, get your hand off my foot!'' Bulma set off a chain of events with Bra having to put up with all of it. ''Oh boy,'' Bra slid a hand down her face as she tried to stop the two sometimes harpies from bickering.
In the space ship...
Gohan was hard working in the room by himself while his father was finishing up the sleep that he had lost during his conversation with King Kai. ''8506...8507...8508...8509...8510...''. Gohan was sweating bullets with the amount of endurance and push ups he was undergoing. After he reached 10,000 push ups he did 10,000 sit ups.
After that, Gohan turned up the gravity to 400x gravity and the strain on his body was immense. He knew he could transform, but even doing that wouldn't relieve that much pain and strain that was on him. Gohan punched the air tirelessly, working on his technique and stamina all at the same time. With every single motion he was doing, sweat would come flying off of him.
Gohan then collapsed to the floor after two hours of doing that and was ready to give in, but ultimately his power of will overcame his sense of fatigue. ''Huff... huff... huff... huff... must... keep... going!''. Gohan slowly stood up but stumbled back and the veins that was showing on his muscles were visible to the eye. Gohan then started working on a variation of techniques to pave his own path as a warrior. He wanted to pave his own road to become his own warrior in the future.
''Haaaaa...hyaaahhh'', Gohan was sweating like a person who just came out of a pool. Gohan worked his butt off until he collapsed of exhaustion in the middle of the chamber. Gohan then fell unconscious after training rigorously for six hours straight. Gohan's muscles were aching and he felt extremely sore from his extreme training session. Goku woke up and saw his son unconscious and went into the room.
Goku was walking under the intense gravity, hunched over at the sudden pressure emitted on Goku's body but still walking towards Gohan. Goku picked up Gohan and threw him over his shoulder, taking Gohan to his room to rest up.
Piccolo was meditating while all of this was happening and Krillin was lightly training outside of the room, waiting for Gohan to be done with his training for the day. ''Hey Goku, is he alright?''. Krillin looked at Gohan and saw him with bruises and bumps all over him, making him have concern. Goku nodded and replied,''He's a tough kid, he can handle it''.
Krillin nodded at the reassurance and went into the gravity room to train himself. He turned the gravity up to 125x gravity and the gravity sent Krillin to the floor. Krillin slowly pushed himself up and powered up. Tendrils of red started to arise as his power continued to expand. ''KAIOKEN x20!''. Krillin's tendrils of red collaborated to create a fearsome, blazing pulsing red aura surrounding the bald midget.
Krillins goal was to maintain an upper level of Kaioken in high gravity for as long as possible so he could get a feel to it. Krillin paced around the gravity room and did a flurry of attacks. Krillin rapidly kicked the air multiple times and shot a quick ki blast, finishing his combo move.
Krillin was burning up energy so Krillin was trying to better control his Kaioken so that he wouldn't run out of reserves so soon. Meanwhile, Piccolo stopped meditating and finding inner energy within himself to go train in the GR as well. Goku had just laid Gohan on his bed to give him time to sleep and rest up to recover.
Goku instantly teleported into the gravity room and declared to everybody,''Both of you! Come at me!'', Goku transformed into a Super Saiyan and tensed up, ready for battle. Piccolo powered up to his maximum, which was incredibly high. It matched up to above 75% Frieza strength. Krillin also powered up to his maximum and went to his maximum Kaioken. ''KAIOKEN x30!''
Goku walked over to turn off the gravity and flare up his aura, shaking the space ships floor. Piccolo shot off towards Goku with Krillin not far behind him. Goku grabbed Piccolo's fist and kicks Piccolo away. Krillin came up right behind Piccolo's previous position and had a red tainted fist raised. Goku saw it and evaded the blow. Krillins whole body was flung forward and Goku used the opportunity to kiai wave him away.
Piccolo fired off his surprise attack wave which Goku deflected away and dodged all of Piccolo's attacks with ease, no matter how hard he's been trying to nail Goku with his attacks. Goku teleported to behind Piccolo and hammered him down onto the surface of the ships floor. Krillin came from behind Goku with a fearsome red aura, but Goku saw it coming and caught Krillin's leg.
Goku threw Krillin away from him and Piccolo fired off a beam to hit Goku. Goku deflected the beam away in general, ruining Piccolo's attempt of hitting him with the blast. Goku then vanished right behind Piccolo and kneed him in the back of the head, stumbling him forwards.
Krillin fired off multiple destructo disks at Goku, but Goku simply fired off a blast that was made to obliterate the deadly disks of ki. Goku released a wave of force which knocked Krillin off balance, giving him a chance to strike.
Goku held back on Krillin because he knew that if he had damaged Krillin, he might've became paralyzed again. Goku elbowed Krillin in the rib cage, following up with a Kiai wave.
Piccolo jumped up from his spot on the floor, one hand grabbing an outstretched arm. Piccolo then put his blast into position and fired it. ''Destructive wave!''
Goku turned around and was caught off guard by the beam, the beam was pushing him back. Goku then flared up his aura and pushed back to the blast towards Piccolo with his own Super Saiyan might.
Piccolo was shocked to see his blast be so easily repelled by Goku and instantly swayed outside of his own blast's direction.
Goku closed the gap between them by kneeing Piccolo in the Solar Plexus. Piccolo gasped and bent over allowing the warrior from Earth to hammer him down with a double fist to the head.
Krillin came out of nowhere suppressing his ki, swiftly raised his leg to Goku's face. Goku was caught and was forced the opposite direction from the force of it. Goku grinned at just how crafty Krillin was.
'He's been training his Kaioken to the point where the strain isn't as much, incredible!' Krillin raised above Goku with both of his hands together, ready to hammer down the youngest full blooded Saiyan.
Krillin swung his double fist down towards Goku, only to have Goku block the blow, creating a shock wave. Krillin simply grinned at the prospect of battling the Super Saiyan.
Goku grinned in response and threw his fist forward, only to have Krillin block it as well. Goku then gave a low kick, which swept Krillin from under his feet.
Goku then released a wave of energy, which blew away Krillin and also knocked Krillin unconscious when he hit the walls of the gravity room. Piccolo zipped in front of Goku and released a flurry of attacks.
Goku, with his Super Saiyan reflexes and keen battle sense was able to keep track of Piccolo's series of strikes every step of the way. Piccolo finished off his series of strikes with a blast at close range.
Piccolo raised his hands together, doing his own signature move and quick enough to the point where Goku can't dodge and too close for him to block. ''MAKOSEN HAAA!''
Goku was nailed by the surprise blast and knocked on his back, with a couple scratches and minor burns over him but otherwise unharmed. ''Is that all you got?''
Piccolo was pretty shocked to see that his blast didn't have any affect on Goku. Though, Piccolo shouldn't be because he knew that his power was pretty weak compared to a Super Saiyan at the current point in time.
Suddenly, Goku instantly vanished and landed his leg embedded within Piccolo's stomach, making Piccolo gasp for air and throw up saliva. Goku then used the tip of his boot to kick Piccolo upwards in the jaw, making him shoot upwards. Goku, wanting to end the scuffle once and for all, teleported above Piccolo and drop kicked him to the ground.
Piccolo, being much weaker than the Super Saiyan, fell victim to the punishment and crashed to the floor, beaten. That was a clear sign that the spar was over so Goku dropped his Super Saiyan form.
Goku saw Piccolo's exhausted condition and reached out a hand for Piccolo to shake. Piccolo took the hand and was pulled up by Goku. ''Are you okay, Piccolo?'' Piccolo nodded and scuffed his gi's dirt off. Krillin began to come back from unconsciousness, slowly pulling himself up.
''Krillin, you've really took your training to the next level!'' Goku remarked at Krillin''s improvement. Krillin smiled sheepishly and put his hand on his shiny, bald head.
''Well I've kinda been thinking about how easily I've been beaten by the foes we come across. Its always either you, Gohan or occasionally Vegeta that saves the day, plus King Cold paralyzed me for a month which made me desire to train harder than ever. Plus with killer androids coming our way, we all need to step up our training regimen.''
Goku nodded in conformation and was feeling a bit exhausted himself so he decided that he would get something to eat, then get some rest.
2 weeks later...
The crew was upon the planet known as New Namek. From the spacial view, the crew could tell that something strange was happening on the planets surface. ''What is that thing?'' Gohan pointed at the huge gray thing that was wrapping up the whole planet.
Krillin looked at it and made an observation. ''I dunno, it looks like some kind of planet eater thing.''
''Well whatever it is, its tormenting innocents so it can't be good.'' Goku remarked and Piccolo was busy trying to sense the life force of his people. Piccolo suddenly felt a power he wished he had never wanted to feel again, King Cold's energy.
''Are you sensing this too? That's King Cold's power signal!'' Gohan closed his eyes, searching for the power until he found the energy source he was looking for. Gohan's face turned tense and so did Goku's and Krillins.
''Crap, just when I come to get healed up from the pain in my spinal cord, we run into the man responsible. Just great!'' Krillin clenched his fist.
Gohan's eyes narrowed at how much different King Cold's ki was than last time they fought him. ''It seems as if his power increased, maybe he's been working out and eating his veggies. I'm sure we can take him though as are power has increased exponentially over the past year or so.''
''Warning: We are approaching the planet now! I repeat we are approaching the planet now!''
''Okay guys, grab onto me and we shall go defeat King Cold once and for all!'' The cheerful Goku was now replaced with the serious one as they all latched onto Goku.
In an instant, they vanished to the planets surface where they are determined to end King Colds stain on the universe once and for all.
New Namek's surface...
Goku and the others appeared, only to see a line of Nameks hand cuffed and being herded like slaves by a bunch of robots. Gohan immediately recognized Dende being thrown around by a robot.
''Such insolence will not be tolerated. Prepare to be terminated in the name of King Cold.'' Just as the robot was about to turn the young Namekian into ash, Gohan sends his fist crashing through the robot's torso. Gohan pulled back and let the broken machine fall to the ground.
Gohan then ran up to check up on his longtime friend.''You okay Dende?'' Gohan pulled up Dende and Dende nodded, while scuffing off his clothes.
''Yeah I'm fine, thanks for saving me! We need your help in freeing our people from the clutches of those monsters, so please help us!''
Goku walked over to Dende and smiled reassuringly. ''It would be our pleasure, we'll clear these guys out no problem.''
Dende smiled until he heard a scream of pain from another fellow Namekian not to far away from them. Krillin rushed off to go help them and Piccolo went to combat the robots that were near their location.
Goku and Gohan nodded amongst one another and charged into a massive stampede of robots. Goku kicked through one of them while Gohan blasted through a few of them.
Piccolo ripped a robots arm off, while opening his mouth, releasing a heat wave that annihilates many in the beams destructive path. Krillin however, was getting healed up by Dende. Dende was checking out the extensive wound and mending it up. Just when Dende was about to finish healing up Krillin, many robots swarmed the two of them, also releasing fire power.
Krillin, who was in the process of being healed couldn't quite defend the two of them and was forced to surrender, knowing that either Goku, Gohan or Piccolo will rescue them.
''I will surrender, if you leave him alone.'' Krillin saw that Dende was crying at the pain he was taking from the excess fire power that the robots possessed in their artillery.
The robots lowered their weapons and shot a capturing net over the pair of them. They were then dragged into the giant ship where they will be either experimented upon or forced to be a slave.
''Krillin! Dende!'' Gohan finished off the last few bots remaining that was opposing him or his father. Goku also vanquished the bots around him and he looked towards Gohan. ''We should go to the ship to put an end to all of this once and for all!''
Gohan nodded at what his father suggested, flying after him. All of a sudden, a swift but powerful kick launched itself into Goku's muscular torso, making him try to grasp air while being shot through the ground, making a trench. Gohan looked down at his father and glared up at the one responsible. He was shocked to find that the person responsible was in fact, a machine that has the features of King Cold on its face.
''What're you? From what I could tell, you look like King Cold.''
The mech merely crossed its arms. ''I'm King Cold, but reincarnated better than ever! With the help of the big Gete star's technology, they were able to patch me up into the killing machine you see before you. You meddlesome Super Saiyans, cannot comprehend the power I now wield at my disposal, along with new features. I am the new and improved Metal Cold.''
Gohan's facial expression shifted into a slight smirk. ''You may have increased in strength but from what I could tell, not by too much and we have increased our power greatly over the past year.''
Gohan powered up and let his aura flow out into the wind, making the winds blow until his aura was encased in gold, and he had become a Super Saiyan once again. Goku hopped back up and also turned into a Super Saiyan. Goku glared intensely at his opposition.
''This ends NOW!'' Goku charged the Arcosian mech while Gohan charged up two ki orbs in his palms. 'My new technique will surprise him, that's for sure!'
Goku sent his whole body forward, with his fist, but King Cold swayed to the side. He used the opportunity to knee Goku in the torso, hard. Goku spat up some blood as King Cold rammed his fist into Goku's face.
Goku caught the follow up fist after recovering from the first blow, and charged up some Ki in his right hand. King Cold then swat away Goku's arm, dispelling the attack into the wind.
Goku was thrown aside by the vicious swipe of King Cold's tail, sending crashing and tumbling along the planets surface. Gohan released his crimson ki orbs and shot them at King Cold when King Cold had his attention on the full blooded Saiyan.
''CRIMSON TRAILER!'' Gohan's ki beams were meant to be following type blasts. Where ever their target goes they followed. King Cold then remembered about the brat and saw the upcoming beams, threatening to strike him at any moment.
Elsewhere on the planet...
A Saiyan space pod crashed onto the planet. The person who emerge from it was none other than the prince of all Saiyan's himself. He was wearing his new battle armor with had no shoulder pads, the armored plating was over his torso and went around his back. He had sensed King Cold's power from a distance with a map from Frieza planet 79, Frieza's old home base.
The prince of all Saiyans scoffed. He had been running the show of where Frieza left off, taking over everything he owned and vice versa. To the prince, it felt good that he had rid the universe of that scum Frieza and reduced his remaining empire to ashes. Only thing left was to send his brute of father into an oblivion and Vegeta will have successfully cleansed the universe of the main Arcosian.
''Hmmm, it seems like Kakkarot and his brat are over on the other side of the planet fighting something. In front of me is where I sense King cold's power signal so I might as well start from there.''
Vegeta flew to the most bizarre ship he had ever seen in his entire life. He then fulled back and fired a ki beam into the ships, making an entry way for him. A couple soldiers of King Cold ran towards him with blasters ready.
Vegeta smirked and blinked. In less than two seconds, the entire group who have assembled to stop Vegeta were killed effortlessly. Suddenly, a copy of what appears to be King Cold himself, but as a mech appeared.
''So, more trash has been sent to lick my boots eh, how fitting.'' Vegeta immediately charged the mech only to be sent back to the ground on his back. Vegeta back flipped himself back up and looked on in curiosity.
''Tell me Cold, have you experienced the power of a true Super Saiyan yet?'' King Cold snickered at Vegeta's pathetic claims of being all mighty and powerful.
''You keep babbling on and on about being all mighty yet you can't even beat that other Saiyan across the planet.'' A vein popped up in Vegeta's head as he glared coldly at the Arcosian mech.
''HOW DARE YOU COMPARE ME TO THAT SCUM KAKKAROT! HE'S NOTHING BUT LOW CLASS TRASH WHO'S GOT NOTHING BETTER TO DO THEN TO TORMENT MY EXISTENCE!'' Vegeta's aura involuntarily flashed and turned golden. His Super Saiyan power was glowing reflectively upon King Cold's skin and the super Saiyan never lost his fury.
Vegeta pushed his hands forward, releasing three consecutive waves of ki. Metal Cold smacked away one while evading the other two. Vegeta then dashed towards
Cold with his fist charged with Ki.
Vegeta launched his golden glowing fist with Ki, smirking at the thought of pounding Cold into an oblivion. He was shocked when King Cold suddenly vanished without a second thought. Vegeta picked up Cold's laughing and shot an anger infused blast at him.
King Cold, however vanished without a thought. ''How the hell are you so fast?'' Vegeta narrowed his eyes and looked at Colds cocky and amused expression. ''Well I know a variety of knew techniques and instant transmission is one of them now catch me if you can my dear little monkey.''
Vegeta clenched his fist in total unadulterated fury. ''Come and fight me like a man you damn coward!'' Metal Cold suddenly appeared out of thin air in front of the prince of all Saiyans shocked face. ''As you wish, primate though this will be your last commandment filthy primate...'', Cold socked Vegeta hard across the face not sparing Vegeta a blink.
So... I know that this chapter took me a lot longer than normal to make but I can explain. First off, I've been really busy with basketball and school coupled with the fact that I've been getting a lot of Homework recently. I also kind of lost inspiration to write, but with you guys being here to support the story and asking for more I've decided to get back into the writing mood. Thank you for those who have been sticking with me throughout all of this and I'm also looking for a beta reader for this story so if anyone is interested, just leave a review about it and I'll PM you. You are the greatest people I could hope for and thanks to you I shall continue to write this story. Remember to always leave a review with any questions, comments, concerns, advice or constructive criticism and I shall reply. This is indeed my longest chapter ever topping in at over 5,000 words.
