"You really shouldn't worry so much Zarbon its only a minor infestation"

"My lord honestly do you believe these saiyans will stop at planet 457"

"Fine Zarbon since you are so worried I'll send Dodoria he can handle a few monkeys"

"Yes lord Frieza"

"Soooo vega." Kakarot says trying to start a conversation.

"Hmm?"

"When do you think we'll be heading home?"

"Id say 2 maybe 3 more hours" she answers

"Sounds about right" after a brief period of silence, he speaks up again "Our fathers are waiting lets go." he speeds off leaving vega to catch up.

They land at the base of the mountain and walk towards their respective parents.

Without any acknowledgment Bardock begins reviewing the data on the last facility.

Kakarot being a tactical thinker sees a exploit "Father I could go in through the main gate here you said before they only know about two of us and one 'died in a minefield' I-".

"A direct attack would be foolish even for you...Goku" Vega pipes up and gets a bone chilling stare from both palm haired warriors. "Im just saying it seems like your trying to commit suicide. What are you trying to prove?...Huh?"

The sayian in question stands up straight and crosses his arms "I'm not trying to prove ANYTHING woman. I suggest you drop your line of questioning and allow me to finish my original statement."

Vega opens her mouth for a rebuke; but her father clearing his throat makes her close it and look away from her fellow saiyans. "Well well well bardock your son got more than just his terrible looks from you haha, he even says "woman" the same. Ahhh Vega you shouldn't have interrupted Kakarot it was highly disrespectful, and as for you kakarot you may be the same age but do not forget your place. Now proceed with your plan"

"Yes Sire, I was saying i could go through this main door here and cause a...rather large distraction allowing you 3 to slip in through the conveniently blown hole in the wall right here." He points to a solid untouched wall.

"Um son maybe your eyes ar-"

"3...2...1"

A loud bang is heard followed by a change of the maps structure.

It now shows a gaping hole in the wall from seconds ago.

"Yea we should probably get moving" says a smirking Kakarot

The king seamlessly slips into command mode, "ALRIGHT BARDOCK, VEGA WITH ME STICK CLOSE TO THE GROUND TO AVOID SENSORS WE RUN NO FLIGHT FROM HERE ON OUT. KAKAROT YOU DO YOUR THING DONT GET KILLED RENDEZVOU HERE IN 1 HOUR OR LESS. LEAVE NO ONE ALIVE UNDERSTAND...MOVE OUT!".

Kakarot's Aura sparks to life and he takes to the air, quickly leaving the trio behind

As he nears the base, Anti-Aircaft turrets come online and begin to fire at him

"I seriously hate these things" he says under his breath as he spins to avoid kissing a 300 pound explosive shell. He fires a ki blast at another one blowing it up in mid flight. Another turret fires and Kakarot dives low to avoid it only to his horror it preforms a 180° turn and heads for him again

"You've got to be kidding Homing rockets...seriously...i wonder who did their security configuration maybe it was-" He stops his train of thought as his scouter interrupts him

"BEEP BEEP BEEP incoming missile."

Ah yes the missle. He turns and hightails it towards the facilities main gate and draws energy into his right hand.

"Knock Knock motherfff-

"KAKAROT!" Barks his father

"Sir?"

"Turn off the damn radio all we hear is wind and explosions."

Kakarot disconnects his radio and finishes his entry statement. He lets the ball of energy fly through the air and towards the gate.

The resulting explosion sent shards of glass and pieces of shrapnel in all directions. He quickens his flight speed leading the missle down a narrow passageway. Then he feels a quick surge of pain and his world goes black.

"Hmmmmmm one little monkey ha ha haaaaa" Dodoria says mocking the child

"Ahh the pesky missle." he sayd before he simply swats it into a wall as if he was swatting a fly, the resulting explosion slightly scorched his scouter.

"Lets see what your power level is monkey" Dodoria grabbed Kakarots by his tail causing the teenager to snap back to consciousness.

"Agh...What...the...hell let go you tub of lard ugh" Kakarot tries to pull himself free but it results in a crippling pain at the base of his tail.

"Hahaha whats wrong monkey? Can't take my admiration of your tail in earnest?" Dodoria tightens his grip. "Look here ape you attacked Lord Frieza's territory. That i shall not let stand" He taps his scouter. "Hmm only 10,000 as a power level...hmm this should be easy. Any last words?"

"I always have a plan B" Kakarot lets out with a smirk. He then opens the palm of his hand and lets a Ki blast loose at Dodoria's

stomach. Kakarots pink adversary lets out a surprisingly high pitched yelp and lets go of his tail.

"I would say sorry but yea im lying I wouldn't say that if my life depended on it haha." Kakarot delivered a swift kick to the same spot he'd just scorched making Dodoria actually yell from pain

"You dare harm me you ignorant MONKEY i will end you!" Dodoria rages as he charges in and swing his left fist at Kakarot.

Kakarot dodges but didn't realize it was just a distraction and allows Dodoria's right leg to make contact with his abdomen. It sends him flying backwards.

"Ugh you know for a fat fucker you move pretty fast. I guess I gotta do this huh...fine you said my power level was 10,000...never underestimate your opponent. I'm gonna show you why. AHHHHHHHHH" The ground begins to shake and the floor under Kakarot cracks and starts to rise around him. A blue aura crackles to life around him and creates a gust of wind strong enough to knock Dodoria off balance.

Dodoria taps his scouter to get a reading on the increasing power level..."WHAT HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE".

Kakarot stops raising his power and looks at Dodoria

"There i didnt wanna show you too m

uch id say we are about equal now right?"

"H-How did you get so strong in front of my eyes 27,000...impossible"

"oops i over shot it a bit, oh well I guess you can just take this ass beating like a champ. You will attempt to fight back won't you it'll be boring if you dont"

-Bardock pov-

"Kakarot is making quite the ruckus isn't he old friend"

"He's going to get himself hurt, I'd rather not explain it to Gine" Bardock says with a nonchalant attitude

"He can handle himself sir give him a bit of faith"

"Vega i will not place my faith in stupidity it was, is, and will always be stupid of him to go in and cause a distraction alone. He acts as if he has something to prove...to someone" he turns to Vega with pointed look as if saying "you"

She looks away and is about to respond when a burst of audio comes through their scouters

"I would say sorry but yea im lying I wouldn't say that if my life depended on it haha."

"Did that idiot accidentally open the com channel again"

"What the hell? Why would he make a audio call in the middle of a fight?" Vegeta says to Bardock but only gets a shrug of the shoulders and a hand signaling the group to silence

"You dare harm me you ignorant MONKEY i will end you!"

"My lord we know that voice its-"

"Dodoria...Kakarot is in trouble"

Dodoria swings his left fist at Kakarot and connects. He then throws a right hook which plants its self in kakarot's stomach.

"Think you can take me kid ha, I suggest you just give up"

"Really, do you really think that was it? I am a sayian its gonna take much more than just a couple of sucker punches to take me down" Kakarot stands up and charges at Dodoria throwing a flurry of punches and kicks.

Suddenly thrown on the defensive by someone he expected to beat. Dodoria activates the homing beacon in his scouter shortly before Kakarot's fist connects with it pushing fragments of it into Dodoria's face.

Kakarot kicks Dodoria into a wall and watches as Dodoria falls to the ground "Now what was it you were saying about giving up."

"I believe he was saying that you had no chance of winning hand has hmmmm. I say Dodoria...beaten so badly by a child. Tsk Tsk and you assured us you could take care of this problem"

"Who the hell do you think you are. I was having fun with this guy"

"Careful child if you value breathing you'd do well to watch your tounge. I am much stronger than my...associate. Zarbon seeing as I have better things to attend to than a brat i shall allow you to eliminate him...do be rough will you...Dodoria find your way to the Med Bay then you shall report to my Quarters for punishment"

"Yes Lord Frieza"

"Ahh yes one more thing. Child tell your Father and the king i said Hello and i took pleasure in destroying them tho I was hoping they lasted long-" A large ki blast flew past Frieza's face

"Get..the...hell...away from my SON" Kakarot turns to where the blast originated to see his father clutching his side and bleeding heavily

"Father" he says as he gets close and starts inspecting his father's wounds

"Run Kakarot go get my daughter and run. Get back to the ship and return to planet Vegeta immediately. Good job kid mission complete " King Vegeta steps in making his presence known

"Here take this" He pulls the ring off his finger and places it in Kakarot's hand along with a small device

"Kakarot my son listen to me I know what your thinking; but to stay and fight would lead to the death of three powerful warriors. King Vegeta has evaluated your combat prowess you are hereby enlisted in the Saiyan Army."

"Kakarot you are promoted to the rank of Commander i am placing you in charge of the Special Tactics Division formally headed by General Bardock. Your duties are to oversee category 9 missions and to protect the leader of the mighty Saiyan race. You are also promoted in class welcome to the first class" Vegeta chimes in almost sounding rehearsed.

"Good luck my son and may the gods of the universe watch over you...now go"

instead of listening Kakarot slips the ring onto his finger and slips the chip under his chest piece, then takes a fighting stance "Father I will not leave you here to die. I can help im not wounded, I have no fatigue, I-"

"MOVE it now Commander thats a direct order!" Bardock yells

After a prolonged silence Frieza begins to speak "Aww how touching you came back to tell you son goodbye. Though I must say it is rather rude to interrupt someone as they are speaking"

Frieza gets out of his hover chair and looks at King Vegeta. "Well well well the king of the apes humbles me with his presence. Tell me how is that son of yours...ahhh right he's dead"

"I'm going to enjoy ripping you apart"

"uh uh uuuhhh no threats just yet"

Kakarot slowly begins to gather the ki in his body and begins channeling it into his left and right hands

"Look at you pretending to be tough for daddy. You two share quite the resemblance don't you. oh wait you seem to be missing the whole in your stomach." Frieza chuckles to himself "We can fix that can't we Zarbon"

"Yes my lord we surely can" Zarbon pipes up immediately

Kakarot shakes his head slightly "Ass kisser"

Zarbon moving faster than Kakarot can keep up with crosses the distance between them and plants a knee in the teenagers stomach making him cough up blood. "Sorry I seem to have heard you wrong would you mind repeating that"

Kakarot looks up and smiles through bloody teeth "Ass...Kisser"

expecting the next move Kakarot manages to dodge the foot heading for his face. He jumps back slightly and throws his hands forward "God's Wrath" he screams and a blinding bright light fills the room as a ki blast launches and connects with Zarbons face at point blank range.

Seeing that as his opportunity Bardock rushes Frieza as he gathers ki in a clenched fist he kicks the disoriented Frieza in the knee then jumps above him and releases the Ki in his fist it creates a wide blue ki blast. The fight has begun.

The king grabs Kakarot by his wrist and slings him towards the exit "Kakarot go now"

Kakarot nodded and takes off at full speed creating a small sonic boom as he breaks the sound barrier. "Vega this is Kakarot give me your location now...Damn it woman answer me what is your location."

A weak voice comes over the radio "Ka-Kakarot?"

"No it's Tom. What's your location we are to evacuate immediately"

"My father dropped me off at the LZ"

"On my way" Kakarot makes a swift turn and boost his speed even more. 'Damn it where is it' 'c'mon c'mon there you are'

"Vega I'm inbound on your position"

"Roger tha-"

"Lets go" he goes to grab her arm but notices she's sitting in a pool of blood he follows the trail to her leg which looks mauled and mangled "What happened"

"F-Frieza." she manages to get out between her deep breaths

"Lets get you to the shuttle " He picks her up gently and moves at a brisk pace to the shuttle he kicks the door and it slides open. "Here lie down and I'll start the take off procedure"

He goes to the cockpit and begins pressing a series of buttons. The shuttles starts to hum and its main thrusters come online.

"Autopilot is fully functional it should get you back to the ship safely. Take this your father wants you to give this to...uhhh Nappa?...No...Shit give it to someone important...probably Nappa though " he reached into his armor and pulls out a small chip.

"What did you say. WE were told to leave not just me. You can give it to him yourself"

The thrusters begin to fire.

"see i would, but yea well I've always been stubborn" He jumps through the gap in the closing door. the chip falls and lands next to Vega's hand. "Don't worry Vega I'll bring them back alive...I hope."
