Kyru: The Half-Saiyan
World's Strongest
Chapter 5

Fortress, Tsumisumbri Mountains

Goku held Kyru in his arms, close to his chest. He could hear her panting breaths, making his anger heightened at their enemy. He looked up and watched as Master Roshi and Krillin fall, both being injured by the mad scientist.

"Hey!"

Goku blinked and looked off to the side and saw Gohan running towards the mechanical menace.

"Gohan, NO!" Goku shouted but it was no use. The boy jumped up and threw off his cape, revealing the power pole that Goku use to use as a child. Gohan took it from its sheath and twirl it around before getting ready to attack with it. Just as he got close enough, he was smacked away, making him lose the grip on the pole and was sent towards the ground. He fell right into Piccolo's awaiting arms safely.

Goku shifted Kyru to one arm and extending his now free hand and caught the pole. He landed beside Piccolo, starring Wheelo down.

"Grr…. die!" Wheelo snarled as he blasted at them.

Goku and Piccolo jumped out of the way. Piccolo landed beside Krillin and Bulma, putting Gohan down gently before getting into position above the fight.

"Power pole extend!" Goku shouted as he landed. The pole extended, going in between Wheelo's legs. He moved sideways, taking the legs out, making Wheelo fall on his back. Piccolo started to blast the scientist a second later.

Goku landed beside Gohan and sat Kyru down beside him before turning to the fight. Soon, Piccolo stopped and smirked, staring at the dusk cloud. His smirk was wiped from his face as his enemy jumped up and slammed him into the ceiling.

"Piccolo!" called Goku. He could see Piccolo falling from the ceiling, motionless.

"KAIO KEN TIMES THREE!"

Goku started to attack him, taking off his arm. He landed in front of Wheelo before getting into the stance.

"Ka...me...ha...me...HA!"

He unleashed the wave, hitting the mechanical being head on. He blew a hole through the wall, making that section of the fortress crumble. He panted, wincing. He knew that didn't finish the other off, He just knew it.

Everything started to rumble and shake before a pillar of light surrounded them, shooting up, into the sky.

Kyru, who had awoken with Gohan, was running with Master Roshi and Bulma through the halls. They made it out of the fortress and continued to run until Gohan and Kyru heard Goku's cream of pain. It made the two stop and turn back around. They saw the fortress lighting up with explosions.

"DADDY!"

"PAPA!"

Gohan gritted his teeth before letting out an enraged yell and shooting off into the sky with Kyru right behind him. The headed towards Wheelo when they suddenly felt a presence beside them. They looked over and saw Piccolo, flying upwards as well.

"Mister Piccolo?" blinked Gohan.

"Thought you could use some help kid." was the only response.

"Thanks!" smiled Gohan before looking back up. The three hit Wheelo head on and Gohan bounced off but righted himself. He could see Kyru and Piccolo still hitting Wheelo before Piccolo opened his mouth and blasted him. The casing that held the brain started to crack from the blast.

Krillin came from the clouds and went to hit Willow but was hit away.

"Your planet will die!" Wheelo growled before shooting a red beam down towards the Earth. The beam suddenly exploded and Kyru suddenly felt something she had never felt before.

A blue energy ball suddenly came from the explosion and hit Willow, making him scream out before exploding.

The four quickly returned to the fortress only to find that it had been destroyed. They heard Roshi call and they rushed over.

"Hey daddy, you awake?" grinned Gohan as he stared down at his father.

"Heh, Hey guys." Goku responded. He slowly sat up and turned his head.

"Piccolo! Thanks for your help." he called over to the retreating Namek, making him stop.

"You should be thanking Gohan and Kyru."

Gohan smiled before looking at his father who looked back.

Kyru smiled before hopping on Piccolo's back, just as he was about to take off. She heard him let out a growl before wrapping her tail around his waist.

"What did I say about jumping on my back like that?" Piccolo stated harshly, but he had a soft look on his face that no one could see. Kyru only grinned and nuzzled into the other's back, letting out a small purr-like sound.
