Chapter 13: Saiyan arrival

"I feel their energy approaching the Earth." Gohan said as he looked up in the sky. "They'll be landing any moment now."

Piccolo nodded. "We prepared as much as we could. We're both leagues stronger than what we were."

Gohan nodded. He started swaying on his feet until he passed out completely.

"Gohan! Gohan!" Piccolo yelled as he shook him.

Gohan opened his eyes to see Mirai and Mystic. It was he first time seeing them since he told them he wasn't letting anyone die. "Whats the big idea! The saiyans are going to land any minute. What gives you the right to pull me in here? There is a reason I didn't want to see you, so leave me alone!"

"Gohan you have to listen to us...

"No you listen!" Gohan said as he cut his future counter part off. "The way I see it you want everyone to die. I'm here to save them so just stay out of my way!" Gohan said as he disappeared. He opened his eyes to see Piccolo. "Sorry about that Piccolo. I'm okay."

Piccolo let out a sigh of relief. "What happened?"

"Nothing to worry about. Just some last minute advice." Gohan lied.

'Power up so they know where to find you!"

Gohan growled when he heard Mystics voice ring through his head. 'Leave me alone!' Gohan replied angrily as he blocked them off from mentally communicating with him.

Piccolo then heard a thought go through his head. 'Piccolo its me mystic. If you can hear me please raise your power level. If you don't the saiyans will destroy the first city they land in.'

Piccolo nodded. "Lets raise our power Gohan. We need to lead the saiyans here."

Piccolo and Gohan both powered up. The first person to arrive was Krillin.

"Hey guys. I hope I didn't miss anything."

Gohan shook his head. "You're right on time. The Saiyans should be arriving soon."

Krillin nodded. "Well I guess this day has finally come. I just hope Goku can make it in time."

"Well he's not here yet, so we'll just take out these saiyans ourselves." Piccolo said.

"Oh is that right? I would love to see you weaklings try." One of the saiyans said as they landed before them. One was short with spiky black hair while the other one was big, muscular and bald. They both had on armor similar to Raditz except the short one had blue spandex on.

"So I assume this is the Calvary? What do you think Nappa?"

Nappa laughed. "Well Vegeta I think the saibamen can even beat this bunch of weaklings."

Vegeta chuckled as well. "How many do you have?"

"I have six of them."

"Good. This will be an amusing six on three match. It sounds like pretty good entertainment."

Piccolo growled. "We're not here for games or to amuse you. Now fight us!"

"That voice. You were the one to defeat Raditz one year ago." Vegeta stated.

Piccolo smirked. "Yeah and the two of you are next."

Nappa chuckled. "Don't be cocky. You might be from Namek, but that doesn't mean you are as strong as us."

Piccolo's eyes widened. "I'm from Namek?"

"I didn't know you were from outer space Piccolo." Krillin said.

Vegeta nodded. "Yes you're from planet Namek. I can't believe you didn't know this. The pointy ears and green skin are a dead giveaway. Anyway I know it was you who told Raditz about the dragonballs. Now tell us! Where are they?"

Krillin cocked his head in confusion. "No one knows where they are at least not for a whole year.

"Thats enough!" Nappa interrupted. "We know the balls are down here. We will find them with you alive or dead. Its your decision. You can tell us now and live or we can force it out of you while we kill you."

Gohan snorted. "Like you're going to let us live anyway. Even if we told you, you will still kill us."

Vegeta smirked. "That is true."

Piccolo dropped down into his stance. "I must thank you. Because of you you I now know that I am from the planet Namek, but this is my planet now. No one is going to tell me what to do on it. We're not here to bow down to your demands. We're here to fight."

"Nappa plant the saibamen."

Nappa planted some six seeds in the ground and dropped some liquid on them. Out of the ground sprouted six green men with red eyes, pointy claws and pointy ears. They had eloped heads and could only screech like crazy brainless monsters.

Before anyone could attack two more warriors landed beside Krillin.

"Tien! Chioutzu! Thanks for dropping by." Krillin yelled in relief.

"Hey don't forget me!" Yamcha yelled as he landed. "Whats up? Why does everyone look so serious around here?"

'I see why he died first in other universes'. Gohan thought while he face palmed.

"Look Nappa now its six against six. This proves to be interesting." He looked toward the Z warriors. "Gentlemen how would you like to play a game. You six against our six saibaman."

Piccolo growled. "We're not here to play games or fight on your terms. We'll fight you all at once."

Gohan waved his hands. "Whoa hold on there Piccolo. We need to buy time for dad." Gohan stepped forward. "We accept!

Tien stepped forward. "I'll fight first."

'Gohan please listen I need you to...' That was all Majunior was able to get out until Gohan cut his mind link from his future counterparts.

Majuniour slammed his fist into the ground. "That stubborn fool! Innocent lives will be taken! He's been ignoring us long enough!"

Mystic sighed. "Maybe a few deaths on his concious will finally get him to listen.

Majunior slumped to the ground. "I don't want that on him though. Its the worse feeling ever."

Mystic nodded. "I know, but we can't do anything about it. He won't even bother to listen to us. We were able to save a city from Nappa, but those journalist won't make it or be wished back. We can't do this alone. The only way to save everyone is for all three of us to be on the same page."

Majunior sighed again. "I feel like we're failing him."

"He'll come around."

"I hope you're right.

(With Gohan)

Gohan turned his head when he saw two helicopters flying by. Nappa smirked and raised his two fingers up. Gohans eyes widened as the copters exploded killing the journalist. 'I forgot about that! How could I forget! I could've prevented that! Maybe that's what Majunior was trying to warn me about.'

Gohan took a deep breath. "I can't worry about that now. I have to at least save my fathers friends and Piccolo. No one else dies on my watch."

Tien ran at the Saibaman and aimed a fist at him. The saibaman dodged and jump backwards. Tien charged again, but this time the Saibaman released white liquid from his head. Tien moved to the side to dodge. The liquid hit the ground and ate away at it as if it were acid.

The Saibaman jumped in the air to create some space. Tien jumped up and elbowed him in the chest causing the saibaman to hit the ground with his eyes bulging out.

The Saibaman stood back to his feet only to be destroyed by Vegeta.

Everyone, but Gohan was surprised. "Vegeta why did you do that?" Nappa asked.

Vegeta grunted. "He obviously wasn't any use to us."

Nappa stuttered. "I know, but he was still alive. I don't understand."

"It would've been pointless to let him continue Nappa. He was losing which leads me to believe he wasn't trying his hardest." He looked over at the other Saibaman. "I specifically told him not to hold anything back. Okay who is next?"

Nappa growled. "If no one steps up then we'll do a free for all."

Piccolo snorted. "That's fine with me lets go!"

"No I'll go next." Krillin said as he stepped up.

"Hold on Krillin!" Yamcha said. "Let me go would ya. I'm really anxious to show these guys what we're all about down here on this planet."

"That's great, but I got this okay?"

"You've already been wished back with the dragonballs once. I haven't, so if anything happens at least we know that I can be revived. Sit this one out for me Krillin."

Krillin nodded.

Yamcha stepped forward and got into a stance. Yamcha threw a punch, but the saibaman blocked. The saibaman tried to claw at Yamcha, but he dodged each attack. They kept throwing blows at each other, but neither could gain the advantage. Yamcha swept his opponents legs and round house kicked him in the face. The Saibaman did a handspring to get back to his feet. Yamcha fazed in behind him and aimed a punch, but the saibaman caught it and threw Yamcha in the air. Yamcha came down with kick, but he jumped in the air. Yamcha went after him. The saibaman tried to grab him, but Yamcha fazed out of the way. He cupped his hands together and blasted his opponent down with a kamehameha wave to the ground causing a crater.

Yamcha landed. "Well that was easy. I guess we're in a different league than your green men."

Nappa snarled. "You cocky little..."

"Nappa relax!" Vegeta said.

"Now how about I just take on the other four by my self." Yamcha continued with a smirk.

Vegeta chuckled. "I'd love to see that, but its too bad I won't get the chance.

The saibaman jumped out of the crater and made a grab at Yamcha. Yamcha turned and his eyes widened.

Vegeta smirked when the saibaman grabbed a hold of Yamcha

Yamcha was confused. "What the hell?" He struggled and tried to get loose.

The other warriors were so shocked at was going on that they didn't see someone on their side disappear.

The saibaman smirked as he clutched harder to Yamcha.

"Its over." Piccolo announced, but all of them were stunned when the saibamans head fell from his body. His body went limp as his arms and legs released Yamcha.

"You idiot!" Gohan yelled startling everyone. He was in front of Yamcha with his sword drawn. "Never turn your back on an enemy! What kind of fighter are you."

Yamcha frowned. "Who do you think you are kid. I had him defeated."

"Like hell you did." Gohan replied. "He had you where he wanted you. He would've self destructed and took you with him because you decided to get cocky and let your guard down."

Nappas mouth was widened. "How did you know he would self destruct?"

"It was obvious!" Piccolo yelled. "That's the only thing he could've done in that predicament.

Vegeta growled. "That was a lucky assumption. You may have saved him now, but you all will die soon enough.

Gohan held his sword in front of him. "How about the rest of the Saibamen step up. I'll take you all at once."

"Wait Gohan that's crazy!" Krillin yelled.

"I know he's Goku's kid, but that doesn't make him invincible." Tien said.

"Have faith in him. He's probably the strongest one out of all of us. He can handle those things no sweat." Piccolo said.

"You're eager for a fight. That must be the saiyan blood coursing through your veins." Nappa said.

Gohan smirked as he got into a stance with his sword in front of him. "Well are they just going to stand there?"

The saibamen stepped up and they all charged at the young saiyan. Gohan disappeared from view. He reappeared behind the saibamen and sheathed his sword. The saibamen all fell to the ground in pieces.

Gohan walked back over to the shocked Z warriors.

"Way to go kid! I didn't know you had it in you." Krillin said

"I didn't even see him move!" Yamcha stuttered out.

Piccolo smirked. "Good job Gohan. Now maybe you should take your weights off now. Its about to get serious.

Gohan nodded as a bright light enveloped him. The light disappeared, but he was still in the same clothes.

"What happened?" Tien asked.

"He knows my materialization technique. He materialized a gi without the weights."

Krillin nodded in understanding. "So how much were the weights you had on?"

Gohan put a finger to his chin in thought. "One thousand pounds altogether give or take."

Everyone was shocked. "You gotta be kidding me. You're just a kid!" Yamcha yelled.

"Don't underestimate the power of a saiyan." Nappa said as he approached the group. "He may be a kid, but he has saiyan blood in him. How about you come test your power over here kid."

"Everyone prepare yourselves." Piccolo yelled.

Gohan held his hand out. "No I can take him."

"There is no way we're letting you fight him by yourself." Krillin stated.

"Gohan are you sure?" Piccolo asked.

Gohan nodded. "I can do this. Trust me."

Piccolo sighed. "Okay. Go get him kid. If he even gets the slightest advantage I'm jumping in."

"Piccolo are you crazy? He's just a kid! We have to help him."

"I trained the kid myself. I know how strong he is. If he starts losing we'll jump in immediately. Tien and Yamcha will take his left side. Krillin and I will take his right side. Chioutzu you blast him from afar to keep him distracted. We'll move when I say." Piccolo ordered.

"And just who put you in charge? Why should we listen to you?" Yamcha asked.

"Do you have a better plan?" After reaching silence Piccolo snorted. "I thought so."

Nappa chuckled. "So you ready kid? Nappa said as got into a horse stance.

Gohan copied his movements and soon both warriors were powering up.

Gohans eyes widened when his power capped and stopped growing. 'Why can't I use more power. I know I have more than this!' He thought to himself as he saw Nappa shoot towards him.

Gohan jumped forward and parried Nappa's fist with his arm. He hissed in pain, and twirled his body around and aimed a kick at the brute saiyans kidney.

Nappa turned as well and smacked the foot away. Gohan jumped to the ground and ran between Nappas legs. He jumped back in the air and tried to punch Nappa in the back. Nappa turned and caught the small fist in his hand. Gohan threw another fist, but Nappa caught that one as well.

Nappa chuckled. "Don't tell me that's all you got?"

Gohan smirked as he smacked Nappa in the face with his tail.

Nappa took a couple steps back after the surprise smack. Gohan pushed his advantage by kicking Nappa as hard as he could in the stomach. Nappa clutched his stomach as he hunched over slightly.

Gohan wasted no time and gave an upper cut to the bigger saiyan. Nappa was reeling backwards as Gohan aimed his hands over his head. "Masenko Ha!" A bright yellow ki blast struck Nappa and sent him crashing into a rock.

Gohan got into a stance and awaited his opponents next move.

Nappa jumped to his feet enraged. "You little shit! How dare you mess up my perfect face!"

Gohan snorted. "Perfectly ugly is more like it!"

"Why you little twerp! I'm gonna make mince meat outta ya!" Nappa growled as he flew towards Gohan.

Gohan Jumped in the air and started flying up. 'I'll have a better advantage in the air. He's to big for me to fight on the ground. Especially with my power not acting right.' Gohan turned to face his opponent. He stuck his tongue out and pulled his eye lid down. "Come get me ugly!"

Nappa jumped in the air fuming. "Oh I'll get you alright. I'm gonna smash your face in brat!"

Nappa threw a punch which Gohan ducked under. He flew up and rammed his head into the chin of his opponent. Nappa threw his head back in pain, but Gohan kicked him in the chest sending him flying backwards. Gohan flew above Nappa and hammered him to the ground.

"Oh man! Goku's kid is actually doing it. He's holding his own against that powerhouse." Tien said.

"He's doing more than holding his own." Krillin replied.

"This is one powerful kid!" Yamcha exclaimed while Chioutzu nodded in agreement.

"We might not need to step in after all." Krillin said.

Piccolo shook his head. "Gohan is losing energy right now. He'll lose if his opponent decides to think straight." 'I don't know why or how. He should be a lot stronger than this according to his future couterparts. I wonder whats going on with him.'

Nappa flipped around and landed on his feet. He wiped some blood from his lip as he scowled. "You'll pay for this!"

"Nappa calm down!" Vegeta yelled out causing everyone to look in his direction. "How can you expect to beat him when you're so angry you can't even see straight."

Nappa took a deep breath and regained control of his emotions. "Thanks Vegeta that really helped." He looked towards Gohan. "I hope you're ready kid, because I'm done holding back."

"Oh is that what you called it? And all this time I thought you were serious." Gohan said trying to entice his opponent.

Nappa growled, but it turned to a smile after a few seconds. "I won't fall for that kid. I'm gonna keep a level head."

Gohan sped towards him and tried to punch him, but Nappa blocked it with his arm. Gohan grit his teeth as Nappa gave Gohan a knee to the stomach. He back handed his opponent to the ground.

Gohan got up drew his sword. He flew up towards Nappa and took some swings. Nappa dodged each swing of the sword, but on Gohans final swing he caught Nappas cheek.

Nappa growled. "You just like scarring my face huh brat." He threw a punch and Gohan blocked it with the flat side of his sword. He was kicked in the stomach. Nappa grabbed Gohan by the head and threw him to the ground and threw some ki blasts at him.

Gohan flipped multiple time in mid air before his feet touched the ground. He used his sword to cut through the blasts heading his way. 'I'm losing more and more power! Whats going on!'

Nappa started flying down towards Gohan.

"This is our chance! Everyone attack now!" Piccolo yelled as all of them took off. Piccolo punched him to the side. Krillin and Yamcha kicked him down towards Tien.

Tien held his hands out in front of him creating a triangle. "Tri Beam Ha!" He yelled relasing the blast.

Krillin and Yamcha cupped their hands. "Kamehameha!" They yelled in unison blasting the burly saiyan.

Piccolo aimed his palm as well. "Destructive wave." He yelled as his blast went towards him. Chioutzu was shooting dodon rays as well.

Gohan looked confused when Piccolo landed next to him. "Don't think you'll get all the fun for yourself. Today we're a team so no solo hero acts."

"But Mr. Piccolo I have to be the one to fight him alone. I know I can beat him. I need to."

Piccolo sighed. "You know whats suppose to happen right? You saw it in your future counterparts memories right?"

Gohan turned his head and nodded meekly.

"You want to change the way things are and they don't like the idea. Is this causing your power to decrease? Your mind is else where and you're having inner turmoil. "

"I should still have enough power to beat Nappa. I can do this Piccolo. I can save you and everyone else!" Please don't stop me."

The smoke cleared and Nappa was shown enraged as his armor was halfway broken. He had bruises and scrapes over his body. A vein was pulsing on the side of his head.

"Woah they almost got you Nappa. I'm impressed with their show of power and strategy. Thats why you always need to be aware of your surroundings." Vegeta said with a chuckle.

Nappa powered up even more than before. Gohan grit his teeth. 'I don't like where this is going.'

Nappa flew towards Yamcha and punched him in the stomach. He released a blast tearing through Yamcha killing him immediatly.

The Z warriors eyes widened.

Gohan flew off to engage him, but Nappa blasted him to the ground causing a crater. Tien punched him in the face, but Nappa didn't even budge. Nappa grabbed him by the throat and was about to crush it when he was hit by a dodon ray.

He glared at Chioutzu, but was blasted in the back by Piccolo. Nappa threw Tien into Piccolo causing them both to hit the ground hard. He flew after Krillin. He punched him in the gut. He grabbed him by his shirt and threw him into Gohan.

"Now for the clown." Nappa said as he looked toward Chioutzu to see nothing. "Where the hell did he go?"

"Nappa on your back!" Vegeta yelled. Nappa looked over his shoulder to see Chioutzu glowing on his back." What are you doing get off!" He flew into rocks and into the ground back first to get rid of the small warrior.

Tien was trying to regain his senses when he heard Chioutzu mentally communicate with him.

"Goodbye my friend. I have to do this to save you all."

"Chioutzu no! Stop!" Tien yelled.

'I love you Tien!' Chioutzu smiled sadly as he erupted into an explosion.

Tien was speechless after watching his best friend kill himself.

Gohan punched the ground. "No I was suppose to prevent this."

The smoke cleared and Nappa was barely damaged. "Looks like he did my job for me." Nappa said with a chuckle.

Tien was fuming and raised his hands toward Nappa. He was going to shoot all of his life energy into a tri beam, but stopped when he saw Gohan trading blows with Nappa again.

Nappa was getting the better of Gohan. Gohan was getting more and more pissed, but his power just kept dropping. Nappa punched Gohan in the face sending him away. He knocked a blast that Piccolo sent at him towards the direction of Tien.

Tien was hit and knocked unconscious. Nappa kicked Piccolo away and threw a blast at Krillin keeping him out of the fray.

Gohan flew forward with his sword in hand. Nappa grabbed Gohans hand and pried the sword from him. He stabbed Gohan in the shoulder and kicked him to the ground. Nappa landed on the ground across from him and aimed his hand at him.

"Its been fun kid, but its time finish this." He let go of his blast causing a giant explosion.

A/N: End of the chapter.

Hope you liked the chapter. Thanks for the reviews, favs, and follows! The next chapter is definitely one of my favorites so far. I always try to stay 2 or 3 chapters ahead with this story before I post a chapter, so I'll update soon.

On an unrelated note: Since the year is almost over what was everyone's favorite moment of 2016? Mine was being at a WWE ppv called Battleground. I had great seats and the matches were great! It was definitely a day to remember for me.
