Chapter 3: The World in Perfect Harmony
Deeper within the regions of space, a large ship had just exited out of hyperspeed, slowly drifting towards a large planet beneath it. Bright lights lit up the ground from the planet, indicating that it held civilization. It was exactly what the commanding force of the ship had hoped for, the bridge alive with activity.
Clad in the infamous armor worn by the remnants of Frieza's Planet Trade Organization, the commander of the ship smirked as he took in the view of the planet.
"There it is. Planet Vegetto..."
The commander of the ship sat in a small pod, identical to the one Frieza had used in his first form. He also apparently belonged to the same race as the evil tyrant, known as the Changelings, using the restricted first form in order to fit within the pod.
"In all of it's arrogant glory!"
The Changeling glared in disgust at the planet, his rage at everything it stood for. Having developed the remnants of the Planet Trade Organization in secret back to the power it once held ever since Lord Frieza's and King Cold's demise, the commander had watched the entire events unfold since the defeat of the evil parasite Baby at the hands of the Potara fusion, Vegetto, all the way to the final moments of the Shadow Dragon crisis. The Changeling had no qualms with airing his hatred of the fusion to his army, a common topic of discussion that he forced among his troops. The commander had even instituted a new policy after Super 17's defeat, forcing his troops to participate in a two minute hate session where all soldiers must release there anger out on a sole image of Vegetto, every day, at exactly noon. His plan to retake the galaxy now in motion, the commander had emphasized that the first order of business for the Planet Trade Organization would be the complete annihilation of Planet Vegetto, a rather large world that had been renamed in honor of the Kais' Protector of the Galaxy.
A lone soldier strode up to the Changling's pod, saluting as he addressed him.
"Lord Nippy, sir! The remaining fleets are ready to strike!"
Nippy continued to glare down at the planet, nodding slightly.
"Very good, captain. Tell the other ships to fire when ready."
He chuckled darkly.
"Wipe this pathetic planet from the face of the galaxy!"
Vegetto sighed as he reappeared on the Kai's homeworld, through the use of teleportation. He glanced over to Kabito Kai, and smiled as he began to walk towards him.
"Kaibito Kai! Do I have a story to tell you-"
"Where in HFIL have you been?"
Vegetto raised an eyebrow, coming to a halt at the young Kai's sudden concerned comment.
"I was on Namek. Trying to take care of some business..."
The Elder Kai then joined the two, shaking his head at their conversation.
"We don't have time for this! Vegetto, I need you to go to Planet Vegetto at this instant!"
Vegetto blinked again in confusion.
"Planet Vegetto? Is something wrong?"
The Elder Kai nodded slowly.
"It would seem that Frieza's Planet Trade Organization is under a new change in leadership, and is now more powerful than ever. They are currently laying siege to Planet Vegetto, and they're going to destroy it if you don't do something!"
Vegetto narrowed his eyes, nodding at the two Kais.
"Alright, I'll stop them. Don't worry, elder."
The Potara fusion then placed two fingers to his forehead, grunting in disgust.
They'll never learn...
Vegetto then rapidly disappeared from sight with a soft "fzzt", leaving the two Kais on the homeworld to watch over his progress from the crystal ball.
Landing softly on the paved streets of the captial metro city, Vegetto glanced around with an eyebrow raised. The capital city of Planet Vegetto showed a peaceful, but empty, serenity within the streets. The sun was shining down on the city itself, giving it the feel of a summer afternoon in the big city.
This city doesn't like it's under attack...
A loud buzz interrupted the fusion's thought process, followed shortly by a massive rad laser cutting through the buildings within the city. Vegetto grunted, leaping to the side in a roll in order to avoid the massive red laser as it shot past him. He then shot up into the air, in order to get a better view.
His eyes widened at the sheer destruction across the planet's surfaces, along with the massive ships that loomed over. Red lasers continued to fire from the bottom of the massive ships looming over the planet, laying waste to the civilization below.
Vegetto narrowed his eyes, sensing for powerful energy signatures.
Maybe if I can find the leader of this organization if I look for high power levels...
The Potara fusion then closed his eyes, using his senses to locate the most powerful energy signature he could find. His eyes suddenly opened, his expression twisting into a grin.
Wow! That's a really high concentration of ki!
His grin subsided into a smirk.
I'm impressed. I didn't think that Frieza's race could produce a fighter strong enough to take me on...
Vegetto then excitedly shot forward, rapidly dashing towards where he sensed the energy signature. He continued to fly forward past several cities burning below, ignoring the pleas for help. The fusion frowned, glancing down below.
I can't save them all. But I'll make sure I at least save most of them...
Once again, Vegetto's thought process was interrupted as he suddenly slammed into something. He let out a small shout, collapsing to the ground from the collision and crashing into the pavement below. He continued to bounce and skid on the ground, eventually coming to a halt within a small crater, lying on his stomach.
Vegetto groaned as he pushed himself up from the crater, shaking his head while he balanced himself on one hand. He stopped however, glancing back down and locking his wide eyes with Goggie's, who mirrored his surprised expression.
"What the-"
Both of their eyes narrowed, and the two spoke in perfect unison.
"What are you doing here?"
The two fusions continued to speak in unison.
"Me?"
"Yes, you!"
Vegetto grunted in annoyance.
"I'm here to save my planet from being destroyed! It's my job!"
Goggie scoffed, crossing her arms from underneath Vegetto, which brushed up against his chest due to the proximity.
"Your planet? That's some nerve, considering I am the one saving these people from being killed!"
Vegetto continued to glare down at Goggie, but did not move an inch.
"Yes, it's my planet! It's named after me: Planet Vegetto!"
Goggie grunted in response, pushing Vegetto up as she rose to her feet.
"I don't care what it's called, that doesn't make it your planet!"
Vegetto's eyes widened in anger, and the Potara fusion loomed over Goggie as he suddenly ascended to Super Saiyan.
"You are really starting to get on my nerves! You aren't supposed to be here, because it is my job to save the universe!"
Goggie mirrored Vegetto's angry expression, and the fusionette powered up to Super Saiyan as she butted heads with the Potara fusion.
"Well it's not just your job to save people! The universe is big enough for more then one savior!"
Lord Nippy glanced down at the screen in front of him in confusion, watching the scene unfold. It displayed a perfect view of the two Super Saiyan's angrily shouting at each other, and the Changeling could not identify what they were arguing about. He had been delighted to discover Vegetto's presence on the planet, hoping to destroy him along with his own world. But that delight changed to confusion at the presence of this new Saiyan, even more troubling that it was a female.
"Who is that down there? Standing with the Hated One?"
The soldier shrugged his shoulders.
"No idea, sir. Probably his girlfriend or something..."
Lord Nippy nodded slightly, his confusion still apparent.
"Right..."
He then gestured towards the ship's cannon controls.
"Kill them both."
Vegetto grunted in anger, clawing at the petite arm that encased his neck within a headlock. The two Super Saiyans had begun a wrestling match from the argument, eventually leading up to Goggie pulling Vegetto into a powerful headlock. The fusionette's strain was apparent on her expression, clinging onto the hold for dear life.
"Surrender!"
Vegetto squirmed, shaking his head with closed eyes.
"Never!"
The Potara fusion roared as he quickly broke the hold, whirling around and tackling Goggie back down to the ground. Vegetto gritted his teeth together, using his hands to attempt to pin Goggie to the floor. His head shot out to the side, due to the fusionette getting a good slap in on his left cheek, but Vegetto quickly recovered and pinned both of her arms to the ground.
Before Vegetto could triumphantly declare for Goggie's frofeit, the Potara fusion glanced over his shoulder at the ominous presence he felt behind him. The two Super Saiyans both stared up at the massive ship looming over them, unmoving at it's daunting nature even in the midst of a bright red light forming at the end of it's massive cannon. The giant red laser then suddenly shot forward, rapidly descending down onto the two for a direct hit.
Caught in the moment from the immediate danger, Vegetto quickly leaned forward, shielding Goggie with his body as he shouted.
"STAY DOWN!"
The red laser then made direct contact with the two, creating a massive explosion in it's wake that expanded across what seemed like the entire planet's surface.
