Jeice and Burter stood frozen as the orange clad Saiyan threw the body of their comrade at their feet.
Goku looked over to the duo, both were still trying to comprehend what had happened. "Hey!" The Saiyan called. "Either you can leave this planet and spare yourselves the beating, or you can end up like your friend! It's your call!"
Burter was the first to recover. Snapping back to his senses, he smirked at the Saiyan. "Can you believe this chump, Jeice?" He elbowed his partner playfully. "Beating Recoome has him acting cocky. Let's knock some of his screws back into place."
"Yeah! It was nothing more than just a fluke." Jeice smirked. "The guy's a joke. His power level barely showed up on the scouter."
-Nonoi, Krillin and Gohan-
"Is Goku seriously going to fight both of them at the same time?" Krillin asked.
"It looks like it," Nonoi said. "And I feel this isn't eve-" Nonoi stopped talking and looked East, she could feel two high energies zooming through the skies. "N-Nail?!"
"Huh? What is it Miss Nonoi?" Gohan asked. "Has something happened to Nail?"
"He seems to have left the Grand Elder place...something troublesome must have happened for him to leave his side. I should- wait no I promised to help out here, Nail will be fine." The female saiyan refocused her attention to the battle.
"Miss Nonoi, if you're worried about the Grand Elder I suggest you hurry over there." Gohan smiled at the older Saiyan. "We selfishly asked you to help us so we can wish back our friends, but now my dad is here! We'll deal with these guys so you go and help out the Grand Elder and Nail."
"Yeah, you've done so much for us and even saved our lives. Goku's here and I'm confident he'll get the job done over here so you go and help out Nail." Krillin gave her a big cheesy smile.
Nonoi stared at them for a while before breaking out into a smile. "You guys are truly kind. Despite my efforts to help you guys, I feel as if I owe you a debt that can never be repaid." She placed her hand on Gohan's head and ruffled it playfully. "You came to this planet with the intention of wishing back your friends and you had no obligation to defend it, but here you are risking your livelihoods for this planet's people-my family. I'm forever in your debt."
Gohan blushed slightly and looked away in embarrassment. "Don't mention it, Miss Nonoi."
"Yeah hurry to them." Krillin gave her a thumbs up.
Nonoi nodded and took off eastward. Searching for the immense energy that accompanied Nail earlier. Krillin...Gohan...thank you. Nail please hold until I get there.
-Freeza and Nail-
Freeza watched on as Nail threw off his jacket and began to power up. The Namekian had cut him and challenged him to a battle, beyond bored since arriving on this wretched planet Freeza accepted. The conditions being if he loses he leaves the planet and if he wins the Namekian warrior reveals the password to the dragon balls.
As if I would keep true to such a promise...I will annihilate this planet if I'm denied my wish, he thought before being snapped back to the fight's action as Nail finished powering up.
He tapped the button on the side of his scooter and scanned the Namekian's power level. "53,000...my, my if you weren't so suicidal, you would have been a fine general in my army. What a shame." Freeza mocked.
"I find no shame in not being apart of your army, you ignorant tyrant!" Nail shouted at him. "As if I would join you after the slaughter of my people."
Freeza chuckled at the young Namekian warrior's anger. "You would be surprised. I've had royalty of races I destroyed join my army." Freeza flexed his hand a bit and rubbed his wrist. "I should warn you my power level is far beyond yours, in fact ten times your power level."
"You're bluffing." Nail charged at the smirking tyrant and made a chopping motion. The attack did little effect on Freeza, who merely chuckled.
"Well I supposed you can say I'm 'bluffing', my full power is vastly superior to this form." Freeza grabbed the Namekian's wrist and pressed down as Nail felt the bones in his arms begin to crack. He smirked as Nail screamed in agony as the tyrant pushed more strength into his grip and snapped his arm in half with a loud CRACK!
Nail began to breathe heavily as he gripped his stump of an arm. Freeza quickly elbowed him in the stomach, pushing him back.
"Look at that...seems I was unable to hold back after all. The sound of your agonizing screams just made me so excited." Freeza cupped his own cheeks and mocked the injured warrior. "You probably want this back." He kicked the other half of Nail's arm at him.
Nail breathes heavily as he began to stand and face Freeza again.
"Seems you still remain defiant, hm? Don't worry I love the delusional hero types."
- Z-Fighters -
Jeice grasped at his face in pain as Goku swiftly hit him with a right hook. He started to feel blood drip into his hand and looked up. His nose was cocked to the left, blood dripping down his face.
"Why you!" The white haired warrior punched at the saiyan, joined by his blue companion who kicked at Goku, who effortlessly blocked their attacks. In one movement he kicked Jeice away and then swung around to sweep Burter off his feet.
"You're done!" Burter said.
Goku extended his arms and, with a yell, blasted the two away with sheer force. The area around him whipped with dirt and rocks, pelting the two as they flew backwards.
Jeice and Burter managed to stop themselves and hovered in the air. "How is this possible, Burter!?" Jeice asked. "Where'd he get all this power?"
"It's like he just yelled and they went flying..." Krillin said.
"Maybe we were wrong about these Ginyu guys." Gohan said. "Maybe they aren't as strong as we thought."
"No way." Krillin said. "No, they super strong. Can't you feel the energy they're giving off? They're at least as strong as that Recoome guy and he was a monster. Nonoi and Recoome struggled greatly against that guy. I think your dad is just making them look weak."
"You think so, Krillin?" Gohan stared intently at his dad. "But why can't we sense my dad then..."
"This doesn't make any sense." Jeice said, reading Goku's power level once again. "The scouter doesn't lie. He's power level's only under 6,000."
So that's it, Kakarot! He's hiding his power level when on the defensive and raising it when he attacks., Vegeta thought as he clenched his fist in anger. Your scouters are advanced...but his ability to flash his power up and down is much faster than its sensors...just how strong are you, Kakarot?
"This guy thinks he's hot stuff, huh?" Burter said. "Hey, Jeice! I think it's time we break out the Purple Comet Crash."
"Been a long time since we dusted that one off." Jeice said. "Lets do it."
The two begin charging their energies into two red and blue spheres that covered their bodies respectively. When the two spheres completed, they merged together to form a giant purple spiral which hovered directly above the four fighters below.
"Purple Comet Crash!" The pair screamed, as the spiral let out a flurry of ki blasts at Goku.
The Saiyan let out a yell and deflected the blasts with a shield of energy, sending the blasts in various directions.
- Dende -
Dende hurried to the battlefield, pushing every bit of energy out trying to get to Nonoi and the Earthling's location. His older brother Nail and the Grand Elder had ordered him to get to the Earthlings and Nonoi as soon as possible, while Nail tried to fend off the ungodly power that approached Lord Guru. He could feel multiple energy sources off to the Western part of the planet, surely that was the Earthlings.
"Hang on Sister Non-" Dende stopped flying as he felt a sudden burst of energy racing towards him. He flew down and took cover, closing his eyes to feel out the energy. The source of the energy seemed to be in a rush, but not in a maddening panic. Continuing to focus on the energy as it neared, it was clear whose energy it was. "Sister Nonoi!"
He flew up and raced towards her. Why was she in such a hurry and why was she not with the Earthlings? Dende shook his head and continued his pace towards her. She'll answer his questions when they cross paths.
- Z-Fighters -
Vegeta and the other two Z-fighters watched in shock as Goku tossed the body of Burter over to Jeice, signaling the fight was over. Jeice's heart began to race as he stared at the broken and beat bodies of his comrades.
"Take your friends and go!" Goku yelled, a sharp look in his eyes. "I'm giving you one last chance."
"What are you doing, Kakarot!" Vegeta yelled, "Finish them off while you have the chance!"
"No." Goku said, "They're not a threat to anyone right now."
Jeice slowly backed away, ready to flee back to Ginyu. "This can't be happening! We're the best!" He ranted, "We're the unstoppable Ginyu Force! We're supposed to be the strongest, meanest group of warriors in the entire universe."
Goku flashed Jeice a deadly glare, sending a chill down his spine. "If this is your strongest, meanest group of warriors, I'm not impressed."
"Ah! why you- Captain Ginyu!" He yelled, turning around and flying off.
"Goku, he's getting away!" Krillin yelled.
Goku blinked and looked around at the bodies of the fallen Ginyu members. "He's just gonna leave them here?" He asked.
With a satisfying crunch, Vegeta landed on Burter and crushed his neck. He turned to Recoome and blasted him apart, leaving a huge crater in Recoome's place.
"Vegeta!" Goku yelled, "What was that for? They weren't doing any harm."
"Just finishing off what the Super Saiyan left behind."
"Super what-now?" Goku asked.
"Nevermind that! Why didn't you kill Jeice?!" Vegeta snapped, walking up to the orange clad Saiyan. "That soft nature won't cut it against a tyrant like Freeza, even if you were immortal. Reasoning with them, especially him, is just asking for your limbs to be torn off!"
"What do you mean, Vegeta?" Goku said, "I think I've gained as much power as any could muster. And you're saying that this Frieza guy would be able to beat me that easily?"
"Easily." Vegeta said, "Freeza has no intention to go down without an intense fight. His power is beyond anything you could ever imagine."
"You have to be exaggerating, Vegeta." Krillin said, elbowing Goku playfully. "You saw how strong those Ginyu guys were, and Goku beat them easily. Freeza can't be that much stronger than them."
Vegeta flashed the bald monk a deadly glare. "I don't see you eager to fight him." The Saiyan said, "It doesn't matter anyway, he still has all seven Dragon Balls, so we might as well kiss any chance of winning goodbye."
"I wouldn't say that, Vegeta." Gohan said.
"What do you mean by that?" Vegeta asked.
"Well if Bulma's stories she told me on the ship were right, the sky hasn't gone black yet." Gohan said, "If the Dragon Balls here are like the ones on Earth, then the sky would go dark when the dragon appears. I think we'd notice something like that."
"It all makes sense." Goku said, "Freeza must have no idea what the password is. He probably thought that just bringing all seven of the Dragon Balls together would automatically grant him his wish."
"There's a password?" Vegeta grumbled, "Why wasn't I told of this?"
"Which means we still have a chance to get our wish granted." Goku said, "If we're quick, we could get the Dragon Balls and wish everyone back to life like we promised."
- Nonoi -
Nonoi dashed through the skies. Her focus remained on the two immense powers battling it out. She could feel Nail's power slowly drop. Nail's power is falling! He's in trouble.
"Sister Nonoi!" She was cut off by an approaching figure. She immediately recognized the figure, it was Dende. She sped up and met up with the young Namekian.
"Dende? Why are you not with the Grand Elder?" She asked, descending down as the young Namekian held her hand.
"Grand Elder and Brother Nail told me to hurry to the Earthlings, while Nail takes on that immense power that was heading towards the Grand Elder.
"Go to the Earthlings...yes! You would be safer with the Earthlings especially since Goku is with them now."
"Goku? Actually nevermind that. Sister Nonoi, if I may ask, why are you no longer with the Earthlings?" Dende looked over her body and could see results of her previous battles, she was hurt badly.
"Goku is another comrade of the Earthlings, a very strong one at that, and he's strong enough to deal with the threats that they encounter over there so I'm hurrying to help Brother Nail." Nonoi rubbed her aching shoulder.
"Well if that's the case, I think I should heal you! Nail is going to need you at full strength, right?" Dende tugged at her black pants for her to sit down.
"Heal me? Father taught you how to heal?" Nonoi sat down so Dende could heal her, his cold small hands making her cringe a little. "You always were a pacifist and objected against fighting...I'm glad you haven't changed Dende."
"Nonoi...Elder Moori...h-he died protecting me." Dende began to tear up as he continued to heal the injured Saiyan. "Maybe if I weren't so usel-"
"Thank you Dende." Nonoi stood up, her body was no longer in pain. "Grand Elder was right to send you to the Earthlings, your healing ability is amazing. With a valuable skill like that...you're far from useless, Dende." She patted the young Namekian on the head.
"Father protected you because he wanted to, not in spite of you thinking or being useless. Now hurry to the Earthlings, I need to get to Nail quickly."
"Right!" Dende said, before hugging the female Saiyan. "Be safe...that energy is not even the surface of that guy's power."
Nonoi smirked before escaping his arms and running off towards Nail. "Nail and I are the best duo! We won't lose to any invader as long as we are together." She blasted off, leaving Dende staring in awe.
- Freeza's Ship -
Captain!" Jeice stormed into the make-shift base set up outside Freeza's ship.
"Jeice?" Ginyu asked, getting up from the work he had been doing, "What's wrong, Jeice? Why are you in such a panic?"
"Guldo...Recoome... Burter..." Jeice took a breath before continuing, "They're all dead! Dead like King Vegeta's corpse!"
"What?!" Ginyu yelled, "What the heck happened out there?"
"It's not what happened, Captain...it's who happened." Jeice said, "One second we were demolishin' Vegeta and his buddies. The next second, WE were the ones gettin' demolished."
"Who could've done this?" Ginyu asked.
"That's the craziest part, sir." Jeice said, "He just came out of nowhere and took out Recoome and Burter like they were fodder."
"What about Guldo?" Ginyu asked.
"That was the woman, sir." Jeice said quietly, awaiting the captain's sudden burst of anger.
"Seriously?!" Ginyu yelled, "You're telling me thata WOMAN was able to beat one of our own?!"
"Well she did catch Guldo by surprise sir!"
"That makes it bloody better...what's next? You're gonna tell me some Saiyan beat Burter and Recoome?"
Jeice looked away from his captain, a blush somehow visible on his orange skin. Ginyu noticed his subordinate's shame and gritted his teeth in anger. Walking away from Jeice and staring out the window, he plotted their next move. We have to deal with this fast and before Lord Freeza learns of this...I'm certain I can get away with a scolding by Lord Freeza, but Jeice...no I have to deal with this immediately...
"Jeice...leave this matter to me. Grab a shovel and help the runts bury those dragon balls." Ginyu walked towards the door. "I won't let my squad be disgraced by some...by some...some saiyan monkey!"
"Ginyu Force..." Ginyu started, the captain began his signature pose, "GO!"
- Freeza vs Nail -
Freeza yawned as he effortlessly dodged Nail's attacks. The Namekian's attacks were becoming sluggish and slow, the sharpest in his strikes he had at the beginning at the fight was now dull and ineffective. I wonder if father's back from his conquest of those forty planets...I should arrange a meeting with him to see if I can claim more territory in the North quadrant...
"Getting tired, coward!" Nail kicked at him, missing and striking the ground.
"Well if I'm to be honest, green man." Freeza stretched his arms out. "I'm getting bored of your sluggish attacks. In the ten or fifteen minutes we've been fighting, your power and energy has dropped dramatically. I suspect your limit is approaching soon."
Nail breathed heavily as he stared at the tyrant. He was right. His stamina and power was dropping in incredible amounts while Freeza remained calm, collected and flat out bored. "Hmmph! I'm not even close to my limit yet!" He bluffed.
And Freeza immediately picked up on the pathetic bluff by the exhausted warrior. "Now you're insulting me with your lies, Namekian. I've told you nothing but the truth since we've began our little fight...well if you consider this a 'fight'." Freeza walked up to Nail.
"Kneel before me and I'll consider sparing your life, proud warrior." Freeza slightly jumped as Nail slouched onto his shoulder. "Well this isn't exactly kneeling...but I'll give you an A for effort." Freeza laughed.
The tyrant pushed him away and watched as the Namekian's body fell on the ground. He pointed his index finger at Nail, a red like beam being formed at his fingertip. "A proud warrior you are indeed...I wasn't able to break you."
"I am a Namekian after all...we will...never bend to wicked...people like you." Nail gasped out.
Freeza smiled. "This is goodbye, Nameki-" He was cutoff by a swift missile dropkick that sent him flying towards some rocks.
Nail smiled and began to laugh a little, his chest slightly hurting as he laughed. "It seems you went back on your promise...Nonoi."
Nonoi smirked at the beaten and exhausted Namekian. "And you seem to have broken your promise as well...you're a little far from Grand Elder's Palace, Nail."
"Oh my...another challenger?" The voice of the galactic tyrant was audible as he pushed away some rubble and dusted off his armor. He seemed to have taken no damage at all, besides a small bruise on his face from her kick.
Nonoi turned to face the tryant and frowned. "So you're Freeza. Not as scary as I imagined a tyrant to look like."
"I'm sorry for disappointing you." Freeza chuckled. "But I warn you I'm just as scary as the sto-" Freeza was cutoff by a sudden punch to his face, that sent him flying again.
"I don't care for stories!" Nonoi clenched her fist. "You've invaded my home, killed my family and destroyed this beautiful planet with your ransacking! For my home, my family and this beautiful planet...I will finish you here and now!"
"All...by..yourself?" Nail struggled to his feet. "Did you forget...we're unbeatable when we work together?"
