Chapter 14: Oozarus

Goku and Vegeta vanished. I didn't budge for a while.

"Should we go?" Krillen asked.

"No. We wait, then follow after them. Trust me on this."

"Katie? You were with Piccolo more than me. What did he mean… about the demon realm?" Gohan asked. I looked back down at him.

"Demons raised Piccolo… and they tried to help me with my feral instincts. They died… about a month or so ago."

"So we're his only living friends?"

"Yeah." I said.

"Then we have to bring him back! We have to go to… what did Vegeta call it? Namek?"

"Yeah, we have to go to Namek Gohan. To save Piccolo… and Tien… Choazu… Yamcha…"

Finally the tears for my friends fell.

"Katie, we'll bring them back." Krillen said.

"They were… you all are… my first… true friends. And now… I've lost four of them…"

"It'll be okay. When you're friends with Goku… things always work out."

I felt an energy spike in the distance.

"Now. You feel that?" I asked, wiping my face. I looked down at my hand to see it with bloody smears, Nappa's blood. I cringed.

Blood, blood everywhere…

"Yeah, it's my dad! He needs help!" Gohan said.

"So, now we go?" Krillen asked.

"Yeah, come on."

We took to the air and wasted no time getting to the desert. When we landed Vegeta was already an Oozaru.

"How can we help?" Gohan asked.

"I got an idea. You guys prepared to cut the tails off of two giant apes?"

"Katie…" Krillen said.

"Gohan, I want you at all costs not look at the light, okay? Just be ready to cut off my tail and Vegeta's."

I looked up at the sky and focused on the light. I felt the changes like last time, but this time I relaxed as I was transformed.

Soon two Oozaru, the giant monkeys, were ready to battle.

"So you know of the full moon?" Vegeta asked, his voice raspy from his beastly vocal cords.

"Yes." I roared. I don't know how I did it, but I could control my Oozaru form as well as he could.

We fought, and soon we were in a stalemate. I pushed him back as he pushed me, but neither moved.

"Katie, duck!"

I turned to see a blast coming toward me. I ducked, and it hit Vegeta in the eye. Vegeta screamed in pain and started to blast randomly. He hit me, throwing me back. By the time I got up he had Goku pinned under his foot. I tackled him and we started all over again.

We continued fighting, like a classic Godzilla movie, and finally Yajirobe cut off Vegeta's tail. He cried in pain as he reverted to his Saiyan body. I stomped over and lifted him up so we were eye level. I don't know how I could control my Oozaru form, but I did. It must have been because of my age. All the previous times there had been Oozarus on the show it was Goku as a kid or Gohan.

"Let me go!" he cried. He was the enemy, so I squeezed him tighter, causing him to scream louder.

"No, you have to be defeated."

"How do you know-" I squeezed again, cutting him off.

"I just do." Then I dropped him, watching him fall and hitting the ground with a bounce. I then destroyed the fake full moon. He got up and I blasted, and like in the show with Gohan, he cut off my tail and I reverted as well.

Left back on the ground and exhausted, my clothes barely covering my body, I couldn't get up as he walked over.

Vegeta was over me now, and he knelt down so he was looking right in my face. He had his knees on my chest, and I could barely breathe, but I didn't show any weakness or flinch from pain.

"You can't be Kakorot's sister. Bardock only had two sons." I didn't reply, not thinking of any response anyway from the pain. I know what Vegeta's capable of, but I didn't care. He was making me mad, "Plus, you're feral. I know Bardock wasn't elite, and neither was his mate. Unless he fucked-"

I spit in his face, cutting him off.

"That's enough!" I snapped.

I had always imagined what I would do if I actually could fight someone like on DBZ, but I figured I'd be too scared to really help. I guess I was wrong. Vegeta just laughed and wiped the spit away.

"You knew me and my partner's name and about the full moon." Vegeta was holding me down, though it didn't matter because I wouldn't have been able to get up anyway. "How?"

"I'm not telling you until the time is right."

"Let's see if you live that long." He released one of my arms and positioned his hand a few inches over my face. He gathered energy and was about to attack, close enough to kill me.

Then a blast came into view, the Spirit Bomb. Vegeta felt it and dodged. When he jumped I used all my strength to roll out of the way and saw Gohan reflect the attack back at Vegeta, hitting him. I got up and flew, slowly, to Goku, now lying on the ground barely awake.

"Katie, are you okay?" he asked telepathically.

"I'll be fine with a Zinzu bean. But Vegeta's not dead." Krillen, Goku, Gohan and I looked over to see Vegeta crawling over to his ship. Krillen picked up Yajirobe's sword and started toward Vegeta. I placed a hand on Krillen's shoulder.

"Let him go, he won't bother us anymore."

"But Katie-"

"Listen to her, Krillen. She knows what she's talking about. Besides, I want to fight him again."

"Okay, Goku. If you say so."

"You'll regret letting me go free." Vegeta said as the door to his ship closed and he fainted.

"Well… that was fun…" I said.

AS22: Alright! here we go again, if you wanna see how Katie's feral form does on Namek, R&R!
