Bardock: YES! First one here! Now I can finally do the dis-
Mr. Popo: Hell to the no, maggot.
Bardock: Why the hell not?!
Mr. Popo: Pecking order, mother fucker.
Bardock: Eep! *runs and hides in a closet*
Turles: Hey, didn't you wanna do the disclaimer?
Bardock: Fine, YOU take on Mr. Popo you dick!
Me: I don't own DBZ. *tear runs down cheek* But maybe someday . . . .
Bardock: *pops put of closet* WHY DO YOU GET TO DO IT WHEN IT WAS MY TURN?! Well, I mean, Popo's . . . .
Mr. Popo: I AM SO FUCKIN' HIGH RIGHT NOW!
Midget: THAT'S why.
Bardock: Of course . . . .
Chapter 5. What I remember. . . .
I bet you've been wondering how Vegeta was hurt, and how my brother died.
Well, the battle I was told about was ice-jins coming to Earth. If you don't know what an ice-jin is . . . well, it's the same race as Freeza. Yes, he's an alien.
When I told you about Freeza being a prince, I wasn't kidding. His father King Cold, and his brother, Cooler, saw him as an unworthy warrior, let alone a prince. Too haughty, too arrogant. When they exiled him, he swore revenge.
From what I got, (eavesdropping's a bit of a bad habit of mine), even after he left, they began to take his threat more and more seriously, and once their fears got the best of them, King Cold ordered Freeza to return, (in case you're wondering how they communicated to each other, Freeza and his father have these things called "scouters" it's kinda like a phone), but anyway, he was ordered to return home, but when Freeza refused, King Cold told him he was sending an army to Earth, not only to destroy all life, but to retrieve him in eleven years if he didn't come back, of course Freeza was thrilled at the opportune to get his revenge on Cooler and Cold.
Or, something like that.
Anyway, so with that being said, Freeza gathered allies from Earth.
Vegeta was an easy one, after he was told about what Freeza did with the dragon balls, then Freeza had to convince Trunks and Bulma to come to . . . I don't know, keep Vegeta company or whatever. Whisty was an orphan on the streets who had nowhere else to go, but she was a saiyan, (AN: why another saiyan or two on earth is beyond me, just go with it), and a good fighter, so Freeza got her as well.
Lucas, well. . . Freeza said he doesn't wanna talk about that one.
Heather was, complicated. Vegeta found her wandering around in the middle of the woods, she said she didn't remember anything, so he renamed her an' brought her home. She had a nasty cut on her forehead, that must've done some damage.
He stumbled into Raditz, who was the most reluctant of us all.
When he was told Vegeta was there, he came around. But he wasn't too enthusiastic about it.
Alright, the battle took place in a hot, forest-y place, Freeza said the hot weather would give us the advantage, since his home planet freakin' acro cold. He'd grown used to the heat on Earth. They hadn't. You do the math.
When I asked why it was . . . forest-y . . . he said that most ice-jins don't fight well in dense terrain.
Seemed legit. So I went along. See how smart I am?
Yea. . . .
Then, their ship burst through the thick carpet of clouds in almost-night sky, making me jump. Vegeta snickered.
"Shut up!" Freeza snapped.
Wow, it was finally here. The moment we were all waiting for. . . .
Vegeta and I were racing up the hill against the push of the rain that came down like needles.
We had on our armored gloves, with built in claws. Perfect for ripping throats. A creaking sound that made my skin crawl echoed down the slope, I looked up as my fears were realized. A tree was falling.
"Run!"
Vegeta kept going forward.
"What the fuck are you doing you dumbass?!" I screamed as I charged after him. As it rumbled closer we were matching each other, stride for stride, as he grabbed my shoulder and pulled me backwards.
"NOW you want to run away?!" I spat aggravated.
He stuck out his arm and stopped me, "ARE YOU FUCKIN' INSANE-?!" I cut myself off when I looked up just in time to see the tree trunk bounce right over our heads and continue downhill.
I stood there, frozen in shock, before I fell down. Anime- style.
"Come on." Vegeta growled, before grabbing my leg and dragging me the rest of the way uphill.
"Goddamnit, you do that again, I'll cut you."
My back singed as another Ki blast from one of the ice-jins hit me. I twirled around to face it and gave a round house kick to the side of its face, then, in the same split second, I swiveled on the foot that was one the ground, bent down while pulling my knee to my chest then jutted it forward to hit a smaller one in the gut. I couldn't help but smirk as thick magenta blood poured out of its mouth as it ran off, its tail between its pathetic legs.
Blood was roaring in my ears as pure adrenaline coursed wildly in my veins. I hadn't fought like this in a while! They were putting up a good fight, enough to where I could go all-out as Super Saiyan 3, but I still easily had the upper hand. It was incredible, the blood roaring in my ears until there was almost no sound, adrenaline coursing through my veins. This was it, this was how it really felt to fight.
I didn't want it to end.
"Hey Vegeta! How're you comin' along?" I hollered over to him. I looked over my shoulder to the right, direction I'd last saw him.
"Fine!" he grunted from the left side. I swung my head over to him.
He was anything but fine.
A larger one gave Vegeta an uppercut to his mid-abdomen, when he kneeled over slightly, he got the ever popular round-house kick to his left cheek by the same ice-jin, sending him flying onto a tree. After landing on the ground with a sickening thud, he struggled to stand up, when he did get to his feet, his knees buckled as his hair turned from gold to black and he collapsed.
"Vegeta!" I ran over to him. "Are you okay?!"
He sat at the base of the tree, one hand clutching his gut as the other covered his mouth, thick crimson blood slowly bubbled out between his fingers. He looked at me and nodded reassuringly. I let out a sigh of relief.
"A little help here!" we heard a voice call from some distance away. I turned to see Raditz, fending off a few random ice-jins.
"Raditz!" I cried out, "don't worry bro, I'm c-" I was cut off as something jumped on my back and got me in a full nelson.
More and more piled on, first the one on my back and then a second slamming my right side to the ground, a third to my left, fourth got on top of me too and so on and so forth. My face was almost fully in the dirt, but I could peek up to see Vegeta and Raditz trying to pull them off me. A fist connected with my face, that was all I could remember before I blacked out.
". . . Goku . . . Goku . . . ." a slurred voice called out to me.
I felt someone shaking me, gripping my shoulders and shaking me up and down as my back the damp earth over and over again, I was too tired to open my bleary eyes, and honestly, too tired to even care. Pain surged through my body, and the cold, humid aura of the night hung thickly in the air. There was fire too, I knew it without even opening my eyes, I could feel the heat even though it seemed to be far off, the warmth rolled over my aching body, each heat signature match the dancing flames in alignment with each slight flicker.
"Goku . . . ." the voice said, not as softly as before.
I kept still and didn't try to move, let alone acknowledge the voice.
"Goku." it stated monotonously.
I remained still.
"GOKU!" it barked.
I finally caved in and opened my eyes wearily. My vision was rocky and blurred at first, everything smudged together and I was seeing double - no- triple. The voice, of course, belonged to Freeza.
He was scowling down at me, and I broke into a cold sweat, but I wasn't exactly sure why at the time.
He stood up and reached for my hand. When he helped me to my feet, his expression changed.
"Goku," he started, "I have some bad news."
My face flushed as a dark sense of foreboding over took me.
"I-It's about Vegeta," he stammered," and Raditz."
My eyes widened in horror as he told me what happened.
My heart pounded as the ground seemed to rock beneath me.
"Goku!" a long forgotten voice called, "Are you alright?"
I turned around and saw Krillin, Yamcha, Tien and Chiaotzu run up to me. Krillin looked cautiously at Freeza, who growled at him. Looking up at me, he asked, "Are you okay? We saw what happened and-"
I zoned out and began to think, something about what he said seemed strange, then it hit me.
"Where were you?" I demanded. They just stared back with blank faces.
"Don't play dumb! How the hell could you have known what happened?!" when they still didn't respond, I yelled at them, "I NEVER SAW YOU FIGHT ANYWHERE NEAR US! IF YOU WEREN'T FIGHTING, JUST WHERE THE HELL WHERE YOU?!"
