Author Notes: This may be the last chapter, if not then expect one more chapter.

"You see, we call that area the wasteland," the chief started. "So, how did it get that name?" asked Masuto. "First you must know about the history of my race," the chief continued, "Its not a very old race, only about 300 years. Our ancestors were much stronger." "Really, that's interesting," Masuto stated.

"Yes, it is," the chief replied, "Well, just before our ancestor's end, there was a great battle in the wasteland and it ended with a massive energy explosion. That caused an area of nothingness, a perfect circle. That also caused a sudden change, quickly changing them into this race." "What did your ancestors look like?" Masuto asked.

"That's a very good question, they had bright red skin and white hair. Now, every once in while one of them will be born among us, however they not exactly the same. Just imagine them as mutants, even though that's not actually correct. The last one born was named Jeice. However, Jeice eventually became evil and now is part of the Ginyu Force."

"That's an interesting story," Masuto said, "Anyway, I better be going." "Ok then, may be I'll see you again sometime," the chief replied. Masuto then went after the same powers he detected earlier. They had moved, far, but Masuto could easily catch up. "I'm about to see the sources of these powers are, I wonder what I'll discover," he thought to himself.

He arrived to see the powers were medium level grunts of Frieza's army(They don't have the mechanical Ki blasters, that the low levels do). He also noticed a few locals that the grunts were about to kill. He landed to challenge them. They knew Masuto was coming, they had scouters.

"Who are you?" one of them asked. "None of your business," Masuto retorted. One of them use their scouter to determine Masuto's power. "Power level, 1100," the grunt started, "You better run off kid, your power may be higher than ours, but our are 1000 each, together, we'd defeat you easy."

"I'm not scared of you," replied Masuto. Then, they noticed Masuto's tail. "You're a Saiyan, aren't you? how is that even possible?" the grunt demanded, "Only three Saiyans remain." (they don't know about Goku) Masuto impatiently charged the grunts, not realizing that he left his fighting style behind.

At first, the grunts weren't prepared and were hit. However, they quickly countered. Masuto got a few hits, but he took more damage than he dealt. He jumped back then took to the sky. He shout many Ki blasts at once, but his impatience allowed the grunts to dodge the majority of the blasts.

Then, one kicked Masuto sideways, the other hit him to the ground. Both shot a full power Ki blast at Masuto. One activated his scouter. "His power has dropped down to zero, that kid is dead," one grunt said to the other. They both flew off.

If they would've checked, then they would find out that Masuto was just knocked out. He woke up three hours later. His armor was busted, his scouter was shattered. He struggled to his feet. Sweat poured down his face. Blood slowly dripped from the side of his head. He feels as if gravity itself has increased around him.

With every passing second, his already heavy breath grew heavier. Every step feels like his last, for he can barely even feel his legs. The only reason he can even still move is because, he has trained his endurance over anything else. Then, he collapsed from exhaustion.

He just lay there, his life flashing before his eyes. He can't even move, he much to tired. "No! I can't just lay here, I got to make it, I got to keep going, I must not give up!" Masuto yelled. With new vigor, he focused his inner Ki and managed to take to the air. He was still going slowly, but he was keeping a constant flight.

After hours of flying, he eventually arrived back at his pod. He landed, but didn't manage to stay up and he fell over. Again, he struggled to his feet, he's never been so badly damaged. He pushed the button to open the pod's door. What seemed like an eternity, the door opened.

He struggled to get in, but he managed. The door shut behind him. Immediately, he began to locate the nearest planet. A big green planet appeared on the screen. "Planet Namek, about 3 days away," Masuto said to himself. He began the take off sequence. It was then that Masuto dedicated himself to destroying Frieza and his empire.
