Chapter 2: Stranded on Earth?! The search for Kakerrot
Author foreword:First chapter waaasss slightly messy but I'm still bit rusty. Anyway enjoy this while you can, when school starts updates will become… less frequent
For concerns for the Saiyans.. while Bardock may follow some of Toriyama's Minus story, for the most part the Saiyans will be crude, kinda cruel, hungry and mainly want money and to be the best. At best they'll be like Vegeta, just less… regal?
Ofcourse I dropped them somewhere around the Android saga. I forgot to mention that other than the time patrol and the main series villains, this one will, ofcourse, deal with movie villains.
Anyway enjoy!

"Where the hell do you think the other two guys are, Bardock?"
Said leader didn't quite answer Tora, eating the leg of one of the indigenous creatures, a herbivore with horns by the looks of things
"Best scenario? Stuck somewhere else, we need the firepower if Frieza comes running. If not, well I guess we'll make due with what we have then eh?"
"They were fat bastards too" Fasha added "Still good muscle"
While the three chatted in their current hideout, a cave in the forest, Gine kept up with their food demands, but having just woken up from some sort of trip they stuck around. By now the sunset had started then… which brought up concerns…
"Bardock?"
"What is it hon?"
"Uh… it's getting pretty late, wanna rest inside?"
"Scared this world has a moon, Ginny?" Fasha retorted
Gine quietly made a face. Of course Fasha would tease. She's always done it back when they really were a team. Always calling her runt…
"Knock it off, we don't just want to attract attention until we know the situation." Bardock warned,"Besides, we can bicker when we…"
"When what Bardock?" Tora asked when his friend stopped
"Oh wow, since we tested we weren't dead or dreaming, and since we all remember what happened with Frieza, we're kinda out of the job aren't we?"
His fellow Saiyans moved more into the cave when the sun started setting
"Well, we could rule this world, eh?" Fasha started
"Always the chance either Frieza comes or somehow owns the place"
"Tora, at least indulge a bit of fantasy will ya? Besides all we've seen is fauna!"
"While I see your points, we've only seen fauna" This time Bardock jumped in "Haven't seen civilization, or a sign of anyone noticing us. For all we know this dirt ball could only have us four as the only intelligent life here…"
There was a silence, enhanced somehow by Whatever life form was chirping
".. we could always rebuild?"
"...Fasha, I got my wife and I sure as hell know you won't hook up with Tora unless drunk, how the fuck do we get through this, let alone build? We-"
"Oh guys! I created beds from the creatures we killed today!"
The three Saiyans, in their discussion, had already reached the deep part of the cave, where Gine had fashioned a makeshift home, campfire and beds, or at least kinda beds, and also kinda tarps.
"Made it as comfy as possible, but please don't mess it up?"
"Tch, always about making it nice" Tora just grinned and claimed a bed "I'll snooze off the night, you lot can bicker about… whatever you want eh?
Snuggling up, Fasha soon took hers, but then…
"Gine…"
"You know how lonely I am sometimes!" She whispered at him. He could only sigh
"Fine, but get up early and out before the others…"
Bardock weighed his options as his wife took to their one makeshift bed, his wife snuggling up beside him
'Better than being a horny Oozaru…' he thought…

As Bardock slumbered with his crew, somewhere else in the universe, a certain purple haired man was getting a verbal smack down
"You insolent fool! Always endangering the time line!"
"B-but I-"
"No excuses Trunks!"
Both his bosses, the supreme Kais(Cronoa and Old Kai ofcourse) kept shooting down Trunks in his most recent hiccup
"You've not only endangered and possibly created a timeline, but now we don't know where those Saiyans went!" She went on, "Aagh, Sam, Abraham!"
The two tall saiyans stood next to Trunks, "Y-yes ma'am?!"
"I'm assigning you on a special mission; find the missing saiyans and, of possible, either send them back in time or to us, we have enough to deal with the Time Breakers…"
Meanwhile old Kai kept hitting Trunks with his cane, spouting off about responsibilities and age
"Oh where did it all go wrong?!" Cronoa could only groan

"Mornin sunshine"
Before Tora could react, he got a rude awakening via water
"AGH! What the hell woman!?"
"Hahaha! Look at your damn face! Besides, you're the one who slept in!"
As the more promiscuous of the saiyan women laughed off her prank, Bardock stood at the mouth of the cave with his wife
"Squad, listen up! It's time to do reconnaissance on our own, I'm sending myself in since this planet doesn't seem to have much to offer!"
The other three saiyans straightened up, before flying out
"Just like the old times eh?" Tora commented to Gine
"Yeah, just without Borgos or Shugesh" Fasha added "And we're fired from the job"
"... yeah…" Gine added
As the group flew, they saw shapes in the distance… more like…
"Ah! Bardock, a city!" Gine shouted out to the lead Saiyan
"Are you sure Gine?"
"Can't be anything else!"
"Hm… lets hunker down and snatch us a civilian…"

"Waaaggh! Please don't hurt me!"
A rather weak looking being was thrown to the ground. Obviously it was similar to the saiyans, minus a tail they couldn't find. They had dragged the unknowing passerby when he appeared alone on a bridge at the outskirts. It was very easy, dragging him out into the hills where noone would see or find him...
"Where the hell are we!?" Bardock pressured him
"W-what're you talking about?!"
"Planet, or city! Pick before we incinerate you." Fasha added
"W-what in god's name…!? Look if you're lost we're near south city...EEK!"
Bardock stomped on the man's leg
"Planet. Now!"
"Uh...uggh…. Sniff…. EARTH! The world's called Earth!"
"All we needed to hear"
With that, Bardock shot the man with a ki blast, incinerating him to a scorch mark and a husk
"Earth huh? I heard it was a dirtball planet Frieza wanted."
"Bardock?" Gine asked, rather firmly and more serious than usual "Wasn't that where Kakerrot was sent to?"
Suddenly Bardock clutched his head, the memory floating in
"Boss?!"
"Agh… yeah right, sorry, it's just… a bunch of mirages, nothing to worry about"
The other three looked concerned as Bardock lamented their position
"Right, guess we're searching for my son. If we're lucky, we'll find him while he's out destroying parts of the planet."
"If not?" Gine looked extremely worried
"We'll avenge him…" Ofcourse he was leading them on, he knew the visions, which had come true all the way until Frieza blasted him. He wondered if it was gonna be easy, flying around and finding Kakerrot….

"Dad, dinner's ready!"
"Oh boy! Thanks for grabbing lunch Gohan!"
Piccolo only listened as his rival and his student, father and son, had their lunch
"Don't overeat this time around, don't want cramps again." Piccolo added
"Oh come on Piccolo, it's not like the bacon'll kill me!" was all he could make out while Goku started feasting
"Don't worry Mr Piccolo, I made sure to cut down on what wasn't needed and keep what we need for training!" Gohan added
"Sure…"
"Piccolo, is something wrong?" Goku asked
"... perhaps, I got a dire feeling we'll be meeting company, but I don't know whom…"
"Well okay buddy, just make sure it doesn't get in the way of Training, gotta fight them androids right Gohan?"
"Mhmm!"
As Piccolo stared out into the evening, past the tree line of the forest they trained at, he couldn't shake the feeling there was gonna be trouble for everyone… oh how right he would be….
