Unlimited: Story of a Dreamer
Chapter 6: Waves of Terror
As the Saibamen rained down from the hole in the sky, the Z-fighters prepared for an intense fight. Just then, Unlimited said, "Blast them out of the sky!"
At that moment, the warriors on the ground unleashed a barrage of energy blasts on the Saibamen, which began to fall from the sky one by one. Although many of the Z-fighters were not very good at firing blasts, Unlimited and Vegeta, who both could fire an excessive amount of blasts, were making up for it. The sky was alit with chaos, the green aliens dropping down from an otherworldly hole, this strange band of fighters shooting light up at them, explosions all over the sky, burned carcasses plummeting to the ground as each one is hit. The sight was unbelievable, even to many of the Z-fighters, whose hundreds of blasts changed the sky's color.
The Z-fighters kept it up until many of the aliens had already descended into the city, where they proceeded to destroy anything in the way. Unlimited then yelled out, "Move into the city and wipe them out!"
Most of them immediately flew into the city and began the mock-up, although others were either scared or, in Vegeta's case, didn't want to take orders.
Gohan and Videl took one street as Goku, Goten, and Trunks took another. Krillin, Tien, Chiaotzu, Yamcha, and Piccolo went up various other streets. Meanwhile, Unlimited stayed behind and blasted newcomers out of the sky while Vegeta stood back, waiting to fight real opponents.
"There's so many of them!" Videl exclaimed as she nailed a Saibamen in the face, and Gohan replied, "Don't worry, their numbers won't matter!"
However, Videl had just blasted one down when she felt one jump onto her back.
"AHH, Gohan, help!" Videl screamed.
The half-saiyan turned and saw in horror that the alien was trying to self-destruct. He flew over to her and wrenched the alien off the girl's back without hurting her. He then took it and booted it up into the sky, where he then blasted it a few times.
After the fifth blast, Videl commented, "Wow, overdo it much?"
Gohan looked to her a bit embarrassed, but didn't notice another Saibamen coming up behind him. Before the alien got to him though, Videl dematerialized, taking Gohan by surprise, but then he turned to see Videl knock out the alien.
The girl turned to him and said, "Guess I'm not the only one who needs help, huh?"
Gohan grinned goofily again and then the two turned back to the task. Then, they saw four more come out of nowhere from above. However, there was a split second flash, and several thuds. The two teens looked at the Saibamen a little closer and saw that they all looked like they got hit by a freight train. Then, Unlimited appeared at that moment, turned to the Saibamen, and snapped his fingers. In that instant, the aliens exploded into dust.
"Well, that was easy," Unlimited said, smirking as usual.
"Hey, Goten, betcha I can kill more of these things than you!" Trunks gloated.
"No way!" Goten shot back.
The two boys, carefree about this whole ordeal, took off blasting everything that was green, while Goku hung back and watched them go.
"Wow, just look at them, they're so young and yet they can handle these things easily. It's really something."
At that moment, Goku dematerialized as a blast came at him from behind. He appeared and looked a little angrily up at his attacker. Now filling the sky was many of Frieza's henchmen, the attacker being Dodoria.
"Well, the monkey has more moves than we thought," Zarbon, who accompanied Dodoria, sneered.
The pink mutant chuckled stupidly at Zarbon's remark, but then became worried when he looked down at how calm Goku was.
Before Goku could make a move, Zarbon yelled, "Alright, all of you, attack!"
At that moment, the army behind Dodoria and Zarbon unleashed a flurry of laser beams from the guns they had. However, the beams would only damage the ground where Goku stood, because he wasn't there when they started shooting.
"What?! Where'd he go?" Dodoria said frustrated.
To answer his question, he got a punch to the gut. From nowhere, Goku had reappeared and socked the spike-headed alien in the stomach. Dodoria doubled over and coughed up some blood while Zarbon looked terrified along with the rest of the army. Goku then suddenly disappeared again and then kicked the pink alien down to the ground. Zarbon could only stare as his ally hit the ground and probably wouldn't get up again. But just as Zarbon began to turn to run from Goku, he was suddenly face-to-face with Vegeta, who had come in and annihilated all of the army behind Zarbon.
"It's been a long time, Zarbon," Vegeta said, smirking at his obvious advantage.
The blue alien could only gawk, mouth agape, at the prince, but then he tried to attack Vegeta. He had only pulled back his arm when one punch in the stomach sent Zarbon flying. Vegeta wasted no time and blasted Zarbon away.
"Tch. Pathetic."
It was only a few minutes since the beginning of the raid on Earth when they cleared out all the Saibamen. The Z-fighters regrouped near Unlimited, who then said, "Well, at least the numbers are down."
"Yeah, but now the enemies get harder," Gohan reminded.
"I can sense a few more entering this world, stronger than the others, so you can't mess with them."
"Let's go," Piccolo advised, and many of them began to fly off when Unlimited said, "Wait. Krillin, Yamcha, Tien, and Chiaotzu, you guys should know, you'll be in over your heads if you fight these next guys."
"Aww great, and I was just getting used to this again," Yamcha complained.
"Who's coming?" Krillin asked.
"Babidi's henchmen, the first Androids you fought, those sort."
"I guess we'd be a little outclassed," Krillin said sarcastically.
"You guys should get out of here while you still can. Head back to the Lookout," Unlimited told them.
The four fighters blasted off towards the Lookout and the remaining fighters flew back into the city, this time with Unlimited.
"Hey, is this over my head now, too?" Videl asked nervously.
"Don't worry, you can still handle them without being destroyed. I'll tell you when you need to go," Unlimited calmly told her.
The girl nodded and looked to Gohan, who said, "Besides, I'm not going to let anything happen to you."
"Thanks," Videl said, smiling to him.
It was at that moment however that Gohan, Videl, and Unlimited, who had broken off into one group, encountered two opponents that they didn't want to see again.
Gohan needed only an instant to know who he was glaring at. The monstrous madman named Spopovitch, along with his sidekick, Yamu.
"I think you should leave this to me, Videl," Gohan said, acid dripping from his voice.
Remembering the insane battle against Spopovitch, Videl nodded and Gohan stared daggers into the two of them.
Spopovitch smirked down with that same idiotic expression as he said, "Well, lookie here, it's that brat from the tournament."
Gohan's cold eyes burned right through Spopovitch, who then said, "Methinks you need to be taught how to fight!"
The hulking man moved towards the teen, but was at a loss when Gohan dematerialized. Then, he reappeared and punched both of the madmen so hard in the stomach, it would be a miracle if they could stand again.
The two burly henchmen were keeling over when they got a surprise from above.
"Kaaa-meee-haaa-meee..."
The two extremely pale men looked up in terror at Gohan while Videl and Unlimited backed up from them.
"HAAAAAAAAAAAA!"
Less than 10 seconds later, Gohan landed on the ground as the two brainwashed men were reduced to less than ashes.
"Nice work, Gohan," Videl complimented.
"No problem, it felt good to do that," Gohan told her.
"I bet," Videl said, looking at him with that slightly superior look on her face.
"That's not all, yet. Come on," Unlimited told them, and the three rose up into the air and took off to find another enemy.
Goku and Piccolo flew down one section of the city and looked around to find another enemy. They then heard a huge explosion close by, and they hurried over to it. Standing there was Android 19 and Dr. Gero, who both looked the same from the last time they were there. Goku and Piccolo approached them as Dr. Gero turned to them and said, "Ahh, Goku, looks like you'll be trying to foil my plans again. Well, this time we know all about your abilities, so we'll be the victors."
"Is that so?" Goku asked the mechancial human, knowing that Gero was a little crazy.
"If you don't believe me, then I'll have 19 demonstrate," Gero replied.
The fat white robot stepped forward and prepared to attack. However, before 19 could even think of attacking, Piccolo dematerialized and reappeared to knock 19's head clean off. Gero could only stare in horror as 19's head fell off and rolled to a stop on the ground. As the body of 19 collapsed to the ground, Gero thought of maybe running, but when he turned to run, he met Goku's chest with his face. He stared up into the Saiyan's face with terror, and Goku said, "Well, this time, I'll make sure you don't get away."
Goku pulled back his hand and punched Gero directly in the face, sending him back through the building behind him. As he busted through the other side, Goku appeared and kicked him up into the air and followed him up. He passed the android and then smashed him back towards the ground. Gero was about to hit the ground hard when he was suddenly caught by one hand again by Goku, who then charged a blast. Goku's point blank shot destroyed the android into nothing.
"That makes up for not beating you in the first place," Goku said to himself.
On another street, Goten and Trunks once again thought it was too early to fight seriously, and found Yakon and Puy-Puy, the two main henchmen to Babidi.
"Wow, who's the ugly green guy?" Goten asked, never having seen Yakon before.
"What?! I am not ugly!" Yakon tried to defend, although his deep alien voice didn't help.
"Are you blind? You smell terrible too..." Trunks insulted, and smirked at his obvious anger.
"Let's teach these brats not to underestimate us," Puy-Puy said, and the alien agreed. The two enemies took off and launched at Goten and Trunks, but got a nasty surprise as they went Super Saiyan and nailed them both in the face. As the two flew back, Trunks said, "Let's get rid of them, they aren't really strong at all."
"Yeah," Goten agreed, and the two blasted the henchmen back to hell.
After fighting a few more miscellaneous foes, the Z-fighters regrouped and Unlimited went over the next part of the plan.
"Well, I was able to see what they were doing until now. Babidi started blocking my thoughts though, so I couldn't get anything besides that they are planning to send several more enemies, this time extremely strong. I think it's best now for you and you to go," Unlimited said, looking at Piccolo and Videl.
Piccolo merely nodded and took off while Videl said to Gohan, "Hey, you stay alive out here. If you die, I'll kill you!"
Since she had used that illogical threat before, Gohan just smiled warmly, and the two quickly kissed each other.
As Videl flew off after Piccolo, Gohan turned to Unlimited and said, "So how should we go in there? Would it be best to attack as a group or spread out?"
"We should spread out into groups of 2, and attack the new opponents as they come," Unlimited advised.
With the remaining fighters of Gohan, Vegeta, Goten, Trunks, Goku, and Unlimited, Earth still had a good chance to win.
Then the felt the new powers enter.
"Uh-oh, there's no doubt, that's Cooler," Goku said.
"Yeah, and Bojack," Gohan added.
But then they felt an even more radical strength.
"OH NO! That can't be... BROLY!" Goten yelled, having fought Broly twice, neither time with ease.
"Great, we may have to fuse to win this time," Trunks said, equally nervous.
"Don't worry about that, I'll help you with Broly," Goku said, and then asked, "Unlimited, can you take over Cooler for me?"
The teen smirked and then Goku nodded. Once again, Vegeta sat back and did nothing. As the five fighters flew off to take down the new opponents, the Z-fighters at the Lookout sensed the fights.
"I hope they really can defeat all of them," Krillin said, nervous about everything.
"Don't worry, that's Gohan and his dad down there, they could take down anyone," Videl said, certain that Gohan could stop anyone.
"Man, you sure like to talk about Gohan," Yamcha teased, and the girl said, "HEY, I'm just saying they're really strong!"
She said this, but she was visibly blushing.
Gohan and Unlimited broke off and headed for Bojack and Cooler, who were around the same area, while Goku and the two boys flew towards Broly's location. Gohan turned to Unlimited and asked, "Hey, about this new guy in Hell, do you think we'll need to fight too?"
Unlimited only stared straight ahead and did not answer, thinking about the enemy standing before them all. Finally, he said, "No, I can't let you fight him, I know he'd defeat you easily."
"Oh man, is he really that strong?" Gohan asked worried.
The dark teen nodded gravely, and the two flew on towards the enemies right now. They had not gone very far when they sensed the blasts above them. They dodged them as they neared, and Gohan and Unlimited looked up to see their attackers.
The evil green space pirate and the huge purple monster, Bojack and Cooler, floated above the ground, laughing at the two on the ground.
"I'm not wasting time with talk. You die now," Unlimited said, and then added to Gohan, "I suggest you take Bojack out quickly."
"Right," Gohan agreed, but was stunned when he saw Unlimited disappear and attack Cooler so fast, he couldn't even sense it! Cooler doubled over with the kick to the stomach, and then yelled in pain after another kick, this time to the head, sent him into the air. Unlimited however, noted Cooler's sudden balancing, and watched as Frieza's brother prepared to attack.
"Well, you're stronger than I thought, but let's see you get past this!" Cooler yelled, and then charged a huge ball of energy so fast, Gohan and even Bojack were surprised.
"Now say goodbye to that filthy planet of yours!"
With these last words, Cooler launched the ball at Unlimited, Earth now in the balance of Unlimited's actions. The teen, of course, smirked at the attack coming at him and detached the remaining bracelets on his arm and said, as he raised his hand, "If this is all, then I'm disappointed."
Cooler yelled, "WHAT?!"
Before Cooler could process Unlimited's words, Unlimited sealed Cooler's death.
"Death Matter... Blast!"
The black ball of energy shot from his hand and raged towards the alien's ball of energy, which collided with the Death Matter Blast and disappated instantly, Unlimited's attack continuing right on to Cooler.
"WHAT?! NO! NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!"
Cooler's yells and attempts to stop the attack were all cut short as the sky turned black for a moment and suddenly was lit by a massive explosion, the ground shaking furiously with the force of it. Buildings began to crumble slightly, the streets cracked severely, and smoke poured down from the explosion into the sections of the city.
As the explosion dulled and Unlimited stared at where Cooler had been, he lowered his hand, having completely obliterated the sibling to Frieza. He then turned to Gohan and said, "Whenever you're ready..."
Unlimited indicated Bojack, who had been standing there completely stunned, and Gohan nodded. A minute later, Bojack was no longer an issue.
"Man, I don't know why we were worried. With you here, we can easily win," Gohan said.
Unlimited however, didn't smile, but simply looked at the sky, and then decided to say, "Remember, this isn't over until it's over."
"You're right, let's go help the others," Gohan affirmed.
Unlimited nodded and turned to follow Gohan to Broly.
The giant dead Saiyan, more specifically, the Legendary Super Saiyan, stood on the top of a building and looked down manically at Earth, laughing evilly. Just then, Goku, Goten, and Trunks appeared below him. As his pupiless eyes assessed them, Broly growled, "Kakarooooooooooooooooot!!"
At that moment, Broly flared with anger and his energy soared. Below, the three Saiyans looked up in apprehension at the mammoth of power.
"Oh boy, this isn't good!" Trunks said, knowing how much of a monster Broly was.
"Don't worry, we should be able to take him down," Goku reassured, although he wasn't too sure either.
Broly, at that moment, though, lifted his hand and a green blast charged up in his hand. He launched it and it zoomed right for the three Z-fighters on the ground. Before it hit them, they flew up into the air, the two boys going Super Saiyan while Goku went Super Saiyan 2. They rushed up to the demonic Saiyan and the two boys punched him in the chest, but like always against Broly, to no avail. Then Goku came up and kicked him hard in the face, also doing nothing. The three came back to attack again, but Broly just spun around and punched the three away, then blasted towards Goku, cackling crazily. He grabbed Goku's face and dragged his body across the top of the building, and then threw him down to the ground. Goten and Trunks tried to attack him from behind, but were both grabbed, thrown together, and tossed away like a couple of rag dolls. Broly smiled with that same insane look on his face when he heard a voice from behind saying, "Kaaa...Meee...Haaa...Meee..."
Broly turned to Goku, who was preparing the blast, and Broly launched at Goku. Just as Goku was about to get nailed, he used Instant Transmission to teleport behind Broly.
"HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!"
Goku unleashed the blast and nailed Broly from behind. The evil Super Saiyan buckled at the intense energy and flew forwards, taking the full extent of the damage. Broly hit the ground and the wave exploded, engulfing the beast in light. The rumbling reached all throughout the city, making buildings unstable and causing major damage to everything. Goku stared down at the smoke from the attack and waited for Broly to storm out. Then, unexpectedly, Broly appeared behind Goku and tried to punch him. Goku, however, turned and blocked the attack, and then kicked Broly as hard as he could in the stomach. This time, the Legendary Super Saiyan looked hurt and stumbled back, and then Goku punched him square in the face. The titan sailed into the building behind him and Goten and Trunks appeared to blast him another time.
After finishing their attack, the two boys dropped next to Goku, who were ready to continue fighting. Then, there was a massive explosion as Broly erupted from the rubble and headed towards the three Saiyans. However, he hadn't planned on an attacker from the side, and Broly saw it too late. One fast and powerful kick to the face sent Broly down again.
"Hey, it's my brother!" Goten chirped.
Gohan descended to the ground next to the three and smiled, saying, "That's right, squirt."
Before they could realize it, however, Broly had gotten up and was very close now. But just as the massive Super Saiyan neared them, he stopped dead as he ran right into a fist. The four Saiyans looked to the fist's owner and saw it was Unlimited, who wasn't even looking at Broly. Then, Unlimited said, "Give him one last blast."
The Saiyans nodded and, since they all knew it, proceeded to do the same exact attack.
"Ka-me-ha-me-HAAAAAAAAAAA!!"
The four simultaneous waves launched at Broly, who was being held back by Unlimited until the very last second. Just when it seemed Unlimited was going to get hit, he dematerialized and Broly was the only one standing there.
"KAKAROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT!!"
The blue waves completely covered Broly and erased him clean from existence. The four Kamehameha's flew straight off the planet after defeating Broly, and left the Earth unscarred.
The Saiyans and Unlimited, who had reappeared next to them, were glad to see that monstrosity go.
"Whew, that was a tough one," Goku said, not ever liking to fight Broly since he always seemed invincible.
"Yeah, no doubt," Gohan agreed.
The remaining Z-fighters returned to the outside of the city and Unlimited said, "I can't see what they're doing anymore, so get ready."
"What do you think they'll do next?" Goten asked.
"I'm not sure," Unlimited replied.
"Don't worry, we can handle anything they send our way," Gohan reassured.
Just then, a cold and familiar voice said, "Well, that's certainly a lot for a Saiyan to do."
The fighters turned towards the voice and saw only the top of a collapsed building. Just then, the being mounted to the edge of the structure, and they saw it was Frieza yet again.
Vegeta smirked and said, "Now I'll have something worth my time to fight."
Another familiar voice followed that said, "Don't worry, you'll have plenty to fight."
The next to appear was the evil android, Cell. The green mutant appeared right next to Frieza, smirking at all the Saiyans.
Gohan glared right at him, knowing all the pain he'd put his friends through. Finally, a third voice, and extremely high at that, said, "None of you really had a chance, or at least not anymore."
The voice's owner appeared, and it was none other than Babidi. The little brown wizard stepped forward and was next to the other two massive power levels.
"You know, you don't have much of a chance if you're fighting," Goku warned.
"Oh, is that right? Well then," Babidi sneered, "I guess I'll need a little help. Buu! Get over here!"
The Z-fighters became excessively worried about what they were sensing now, and their fears were confirmed as the final, most dangerous opponent stepped up next to Babidi.
The maniacal Kid Buu just walked up and laughed evilly, preparing to strike the Z-fighters and kill them again.
"Uhh, what do we do?! Buu is standing right there," Trunks stammered, knowing Buu was far stronger than anything they had fought so far today.
"You and Goten will need to fuse. Then, you'll need to help Goku fight him because I know his energy is superior to Goku's, unfortunately," Unlimited advised, "As for the rest, you know what you need to do."
The Saiyans nodded and looked to their targets, preparing to fight these final opponents one last time.
Unlimited glared directly at the four evils standing in front of the portal to hell and prepared for the fight against all of the former titans.
With the defeat of many of the enemies from previous battles, the Z-fighters now face their toughest challenge yet as their most powerful foes come back for one final confrontation. Can they possibly win against the forces of Frieza, Cell, and Buu?
Previews for Chapter 7: The Old Menaces: The Saiyans go off against the most powerful fighters they have ever encountered. With Vegeta against Frieza, Gohan against Cell, and Goku and Gotenks against Buu, the battles seem to be even. But why isn't Unlimited fighting? And where is Infinite, the supposed leader of the invasion? Find out in the next installment of Unlimited: Story of a Dreamer!
