Chapter 6: Namek Duel.
Gohan told his story to Kuriza and Turles. His struggles, Piccolo's training, attack of the saiyans, Namek duel, death of everyone he knows, Babidi, Hoi, meeting the god of destruction and of course his battle against the ancient deity. You know... the story for goodness sake!
Turles and Kuriza looked at each other, and then back at Gohan just staring. They of course said their condolences to all of Gohan's deceased before Kuriza started to tell his story. Turles grimaced but Gohan stayed quiet, ready to listen.
"For twelve years I divided my undying attention to the stability of the empire. My first year in power was hell. The resources we needed were always away in other parts other universe; massive power vacuums across almost all the sectors had me using an assassination robot to purge settlements and villages..."
Kuriza would have continued if not for Gohan's interference.
"P... Purge!" Gohan said with confusion and bewilderment within his voice.
"Y... You killed entire villages!"
"Yes and you see it was too ensure that no one would ever oppose my rule."
"So you just killed them. You didn't give them any warnings or anything just outright murder!"
"Yes, how many times do I have to say it?"
"So is that what you do? Just kill people for your own entertainment?"
"What no! I kill my enemies before they become threats to my rule."
"I won't stand by someone who thinks that killing people who have done nothing wrong is right."
"I wasn't asking you to do so." After Kuriza said this Gohan felt a sharp sting in his shoulder and then his senses started become fuzzy. More and more of the world seemed like a cloud instead of solid objects. Gohan fought his sudden urge to sleep all he could. With every passing minute his eyes became more and more droopy. Until finally his eyes shut and the world around him became an empty vacuum once again as he went limp. The last thing Gohan saw before he went completely numb was Kuriza picking his own nose.
Kaioshin had the same neck problem before crashing to the ground. Frightened and nervously sweating, Dende walked over to Kuriza and asked
"Why have you knocked them out? They just saved us. Where are you taking them?" Dende perilously asked.
"You don't need to know anything namek."
"Yes I do! Gohan is my friend."
"A friend..."
Dende raised his right eyebrow in confusion before Kuriza moved his index finger upwards and in line with Dende's forehead.
"The last time someone did that finger position I died. That's not happening again."
"Oh is it now?" stated Kuriza before firing a death beam at Dende's head.
Luckily, Dende dodged the beam as it travelled into a mountain and blew the said mountain up, this explosion of rock and dirt alerted another warrior of Namek to the call of duty. (Sorry for the pun.)
"A warrior... Well then Turles!"
"Yes General?"
"Beat this Namek within an inch of his life."
Turles charged toward Dende for a few seconds before having his neck violently snapped by Cargo. Dende looked up, surprised but not unexpected, at Cargo and his new clothes (which resembled Nail's clothes very much.).
"B... Brother Cargo... I don't need your help."
"That doesn't matter. You will still need help."
Kuriza (who was still reeling from the fact that Turles had just been in killed right in front of him) decided to fire a barrage of ki blasts at the brother Namekians. Unfortunately for Kuriza, Dende and Cargo both thwacked the death beams into the sky and ground with amazing precision.
Suddenly, both Cargo and Dende charged at Kuriza. Kuriza (surprised at their speed.) went to dodge but Dende was still able onto the arcosians arm. Dende used this opportunity to swing Kuriza into a nearby house, sending the former emperor through Namekian cutlery. Though Namekian cutlery was only made to eat manto fruit, (the fruit contains a liquid almost exactly like water and it is high in fibre. Unfortunately, the Namekians do not know about the fibre in manto fruits as they are ignorant enough of the nutritional system to not study it. You could make a comparison of manto fruit to broccoli but manto fruit is purple and spiky.) It was still able to pierce Kuriza's bio-skin, causing the arcosian prince to smirk. Kuriza looked down at the wounds before vaporizing the pieces of cutlery and getting back up on his feet.
"You Namek's are going to die!" Kuriza shouted out while wiping something resembling a bon bon off.
Cargo and Dende both shivered. They never thought that he would have any kind offspring but of course he just had to. Kuriza sped at the brothers in a rage. They braced themselves for his arrival as more and more Namek's were noticing what was going on.
Surprisingly, Dende was the first to move towards the former emperor. He sent a kick straight towards Kuriza only for it to hit thin air. Dende sent a fist backwards at Kuriza. This made Kuriza dodge the attack and go for an elbow to the stomach. Fortunately for Dende, he was able to phase out of the way just in time. Kuriza entrapped Dende inside his father's weird orange ball technique.
Cargo shot toward to Kuriza and sent a momentous punch to his cheek. The effect of the punch was shown to cargo in Kuriza's none movement from his position. Cargo stepped back a bit before sending punch after punch into Kuriza's chest, but to no avail.
"What the hell are you?" Asked a bewildered Cargo as his fists weren't even felt on Kuriza, yet alone the ki blasts he had been sending for a second or two now.
"I don't answer the questions of a dead man."
"No! I won't..." Cargo shouted defiantly before he was turned to dust. The dust blew away into the air and crossed the entirety of Namek before going into too many tiny bits to talk about.
Dende saw his brother exterminated in front of him. The cold embrace of his death again to a part of Frieza's family had him in utter shock. His body filled with anger he shouted out three words taught to him by a saiyan teacher.
"Kaioken times ten!" Dende's shout was picked up by Kuriza who then said the obvious retort.
"Kaio-what?"
Unfortunately for him an answer wouldn't be told. Instead Kuriza got a blue wave of ki thrown straight him. Even with the ki wave Dende knew he would not be able to beat Kuriza. So instead of just standing there out of breath he flew down to Gohan and started to heal his old friend, Dende didn't know if his healing would help but Gohan was still feeling the effects of fighting the god of destruction.
Kuriza was drawing blood. Blood! His own blood had been spilt upon the grass of this disgusting planet. Kuriza was like vibrating glass, just before it explodes.
Boom!
Kuriza's aura turned a crimson purple; his body stretching; metabolism replaced by another; defiant snarls and grunts as he underwent a metamorphosis into his final form. Finally a purple shield covered him as his power shot out in beams of ultraviolet light, blinding Dende and any poor beings that happen to look that way.
Gohan wasn't getting up. It baffled Dende; it made no sense as to why his old friend wasn't getting up. He was fully healed, yet he was still unconscious! This made no sense whatsoever. If Gohan didn't wake up then all of Namek could be doomed!
Slowly and menacingly, Kuriza moved towards Dende and the unconscious form of Gohan. Dende just sat there, still shaking Gohan, but to no avail. Desperately, Dende ran over to the Supreme Kai and healed him. Unlike Gohan, Kaioshin awoke immediately.
"What the..."
But before any questions could be answered he saw Kuriza. The mindboggling ki startled the kai, while Kuriza was no Majin Buu; his power was almost at Broly's level. Unless Dende pulled out devastating move, there was no way they could defeat Kuriza without the help of Gohan.
"Why didn't you wake Gohan?" asked the now quivering Kaioshin.
"I tried. He seems to be affected to the point of mental shut down."
"Well that's bad."
"Well done Sherlock."
"Who's Sherlock?"
"Did you not watch that show?" asked Kuriza who was utterly dumbfounded.
"No I did not."
"That just gives me one more reason to kill you." Replied the former emperor as he outstretched his hand towards the Supreme Kai.
Perplexed and scared, the Kai didn't even flinch when a ball of Ki started forming within the Arcosians hand.
In the cell block of the New Rebellion's biggest star ship, the Romulan D'deridex class was Polaris. His brief encounter with Kuriza had told him that the young prince was holding back his strength a lot more than anticipated. Polaris didn't know how, but the psychic link between himself and Frieza had been cut. With this new revelation he decided that going after Kuriza was probably the best idea and so he left. Unfortunately for the rebels Polaris had to leave a hole in one of the side turrets.
Kuriza sent the ball of ki straight towards the Supreme Kai. As the ki ball went towards the Kai, Dende decided that this was a good day to die.
"D...Dende?"
"Heghlu'meH QaQ jajvam Supreme Kai."
"Mee jewz ku, pateessa." Replied Kaioshin as Dende fell to the ground with a massive hole in his chest.
Dende awoke to see just empty space in front of him before seeing his own father to his left. Cargo was standing next to him. Dende ran towards his father, arms open and tears in his eyes. The space around him seemed to get bigger and so did his father before hearing his own laughter which was exactly the same as it was when he was a child. This did not worry him as he ran into his father's arms before everything went white.
A/N: I am so sorry that I left for two weeks please don't come after me! Anyway I think that after next Friday I might change the schedule so that I can create longer chapters for you guys but I don't know so I am creating a poll to find out. The results will be found out on next Friday. Anyway please review, share and all that.
If you want to know what those languages are then there Huttese and Klingon. What Dende says is today is a good day to die in Klingon and Kaioshin says Goodbye, friend.
