Previously on Part 32: The Return of Cooler: The Processor Chronicles. Kageto travels through Time to get a unique and important processor missing from his ship. He came to discover more of his past and his future. Then disaster struck. Cooler was planning to exact his revenge on the Saiyans once again... The story continues.
Part 33:
The Return of Cooler 2: Supreme Disaster
"Cooler! You'll pay for attacking Namek," Goku said.
"Oh really? Are you the one who is going to make me pay? Or will you send that other monkey to do it for you? I don't care which one of you tries. I'm still going to win."
"Ok then, let's begin."
Goku and Metal Cooler entered a fast motion fighting of their own. Kageto and his crew, however, teamed up on the metal monster. Cooler was faster than them which resulted in him blocking every punch from all sides.
"Give it up, Cooler," Kageto said, "You are not going to win."
"Oh really? Are you the one who is going to win? Or will you team up with that other monkey like last time? I don't care. I'm still going to win."
Fasha backed away from the fight and charged up his energy. Tora did the same leaving Bardock and Kageto to keep Cooler busy.
"Alpha Burst!"
"Pink Atomic Eraser!"
The white and pink energy blast crossed and fused into an ultimate blast. A giant light pink blast of destruction was approaching the three fighting figures quickly. Kageto and Bardock used their Instant Transmission to avoid getting hit by the blast. Cooler, however, was hit by the full force of the blast.
"Good job, guys!" Bardock and Kageto said in unison.
Meanwhile Goku was thrown to the ground. In a matter of a second, Cooler had a fully charged Supernova floating on top of him.
"Like I said before, I charge my energy way faster than my incompetent brother. HA!"
The giant ball of fire energy was too close for Goku to avoid. Cooler was watching his attack drill into the ground.
"How did you manage to escape that?" Cooler asked without looking at Goku who was floating behind him.
"It's called Instant Transmission."
"I know... It's one of my favourite techniques."
Goku's eyes filled with schock for a moment before he took a battle stance. The next part of the battle took place in the Instant Transmission sub-dimension.
Kageto and his crew entered the building after vaporizing the metal abomination. They reached a clearing ahead and encountered another metal figure.
"Ah, you have GOT to be kidding me. What gives?" Kageto asked.
Cooler turned around and smirked. "Heh heh heh, I assume you are the one whose name is Kageto?"
"What the... How did you know my name?"
"Just a calculated guess given that you have a device around your arm. Very similar in Operating System it takes to run this special processor I stole from an unmanned ship. I designed the operating system around the processor so I could access it and I was successful. Thanks to you, all of this was possible. Unfortunately, you won't be alive to take the credit."
"Y-you are the one who stole my processor? How?!"
"This is the Big Gete Star. It's made out of computers of ships floating in a space junkyard that was created after a war. The remnants of the ship computers somehow got a consciousness of their own and it built this. Your ship happened to pass by and we were about to tear it apart to get more info and knowledge when it disappeared. We managed to steal a processor but we couldn't access it. It told us we did not have the correct operating system to access it. We designed it bit by bit according to the requirements and parameters the processor gave us and we managed to design the basic operating system you possess. We then revolutionized it into our own and used it to create these metal clones."
"Damn it, I reallly have to copyright this thing," was Kageto's response.
"We are an endless army. You can't stop us."
"Really? What if I were to shut you down? Would that stop you?" Kageto asked.
"You can't shut down the Big Gete Star. You're going to have to go through me."
"Damn it, can't we ever catch a break?" Tora asked.
"Yeah, this is exhausting," Bardock commented.
"I agree, I can't kill so many annoying pricks," Kageto added. While the guys were talking, Fasha went to fight Cooler alone. She transformed into a Super Saiyan and gave it her all.
"Hey! Fasha is fighting him... Alone!" Tora remarked.
"We better go help her," was Bardock's reaction. They were engaged in yet another metal fight.
Goku crashed to the ground after recieving a metal kick from Cooler. He did a backflip to get back on his feet.
"I told you that you were no match for me, monkey," Cooler said in his metallic voice.
"I will fight to protect everyone in the universe from the likes of you!" Goku screamed back at him, "Even if it costs me my death," he whispered soon afterwards.
"Your death, you say? That sounds very pleasant. Why not get to that phase right now? I'm in a hurry so..." Cooler appeared in front of Goku and grabbed him by the throat and squeezed shut his windpipe. Goku was dangling helpless in the air trying to inhale some air.
"You know, that's the difference between me and you. Even back when I still had my body, I could still live without oxygen. I can fly through space as I please taking control of what's rightfully mine. You, on the other hand, are bound to oxygen and can't live without it. The only reason I needed oxygen, is to talk. Now it isn't even needed anymore in this new body."
Goku couldn't respond because he was still being choked to death by Cooler's iron grip.
"It's a shame, really. I wanted to play with you a little longer."
Just as Goku was passing out, a pair of gloves pulled Cooler away from him. Goku fell on the ground panting and trying to catch his breath.
"No one kills Kakarot but ME," a familiar voice said. Goku straightened up and behold... Vegeta.
"Vegeta?" Goku asked, "What are you doing here?"
"What? You think I'm going to let you have all the fun in killing Frieza's stupid metal brother?"
"Oh look, another monkey," Cooler jeered, "This should be fun. I'm going to enjoy killing both of you."
"Over my dead body!" Vegeta screamed... He then realized what he said, "Um... That didn't come out as expected."
"What he meant to say..." Goku said, "... was NEVER! Was that it, Vegeta? Vegeta? Vegeta? Vegeta?"
Vegeta elbowed Goku in the stomach. "Don't you DARE do that ever again. Shut up, Nappa! I mean... Kakarot! Damn it, what the hell is happening to me today?"
"I don't know but I might use it to my advantage," Cooler said as he rushed towards the Saiyan duo.
Seeing this, Goku and Vegeta braced themselves. They needed to give it their all if they wanted to defeat this all powerful villain. Meanwhile Piccolo was brawling against the giant robot guards. He ascended to a height the robots could not reach.
"HA! Let's see you kill me now!" Piccolo taunted. The robots extended their long arms and each grabbed one of Piccolo's limbs. They then rocket-propelled their machine-guns and fired. After they were done, a huge cloud of smoke hung in the middle. Piccolo could be seen in a blocking positiion.
"Was that the best you've got?" he asked, "GRRRRAAAAAAAH!"
Piccolo charged up his energy and released it outwards in an explosion (Super Explosive Wave). It could be seen from far away. The explosion destroyed all of the robots. "Hmph, pathetic," he said as he rushed towards the Big Gete Star. The rest of the Z-Fighters were captured by the robots and were escorted along with the Namekians to the Big Gete Star as well.
"Single file, everyone," a small robot said to the prisoners.
"Who are you?" Krillin asked.
"I'm going to give you all a tour around the Big Gete Star. Anyone who tries to escape will be terminated immediately."
There was a pause to let to let the words sink through. A look of fear could be seen on everyone's face.
"Ok, carry on!" the robot said as he lead the way.
"I'm not going to be threatened by a little robot like you!" Krillin screamed as he punched him in the face... "OW! What are you made of?!"
"Heh heh heh," the robot laughed. With his iron grip, he grabbed Krillin's foot and continued 'the tour'. Krillin was dragged by the small robot. Everyone was pulling him trying to get him free but they ended up being dragged as well.
Back with Kageto...
"Ok, I think I know how to kill this bastard," Tora said, "We have to cut him up and disintegrate him."
"Great idea," Bardock replied, "How the hell are we going to do that?"
"Leave it to me," Tora said, "Alpha Sword!"
Two longswords of energy protruded out of Tora's hands. They were white and were glistening in the sun's rays coming from the giant gateway.
"HA! You really think you're going to be able to wipe me out completely?" Cooler asked.
"I might as well try," Tora replied as he disappeared with a blinding flash.
"Where the hell did that freak go?" Cooler asked. Kageto and his crew were astounded as they saw Tora behind Cooler on one knee with both his arms stretched. His head was down and it looks like he was waiting. Cooler turned his head and saw Tora on his knees in a peaceful position.
"How the hell did you get behind me so fast?" he asked.
"Try not to move too much," Tora warned him but it was too late. An 'X' cut was visible on Cooler's metallic body and soon he fell into four pieces.
"Disintegrate him NOW!" Tora screamed. Kageto, Bardock and Fasha were still watching in astonishment at the sight in front of them.
"Explosive Demon Wave!" a deep voice yelled behind them. A yellow blast proceeded to annihilate the remains of the regenerating robot.
"What the hell took you so long?" Piccolo asked.
"Oh, I'm sorry," Kageto said irritated, "I was about to fire my blast when you came along and did it for me. Thanks a lot. I REALLY appreciate it." The sarcasm was dripping off of Kageto's words as he said that.
"Hmph, whatever, I'm out of here." Piccolo flew past Tora who stood back up from his epic finishing pose and was planning to go deeper inside the star when a purple beam of death pierced him in the back and perforated a lung. He fell face-down onto the ground.
"Oh, I'm sorry, was he a friend of yours?" a high pitched voice said behind them. They turned around and were shocked at the... small creature in an orange outfit floating behind them.
"C-Chilled!" Kageto and Bardock said at the same time, "I thought I sent you to Hell!"
"Well, dirty monkeys, you both did. The second time, though, I managed to escape using my Supreme powers. Yes, I could have escaped whenever I wanted to but I liked it there. It felt like... home."
"You sick bastard! I'll make you pay for what you've done to Piccolo!" Kageto screamed as he rushed forward.
"Uh uh," Chilled said causing Kageto to halt in mid-rush, "It wouldn't be fair now, would it? Last time I fought you or that other monkey over there, I hadn't had time to transform. Would you pick on a small defenseless creature like me?"
"Don't listen to him, Kageto!" Fasha screamed, "We already have Frieza's brother on our hands. We don't need another Acrosian trying to exact his revenge. Finish him NOW!"
"Frieza, you say?" Chilled asked, "That's what that spiky haired monkey over there called me when I fought him. Who is this Frieza? Is he my race?"
"Yes and he's just as ugly as you!" Bardock said with his arms crossed.
"He wouldn't be related to the Cold family now, would he?" Chilled continued.
"As a matter of fact, he's a descendant of the Cold Family just like me," a newly arrived Metal Cooler said. He was holding Tora by his throat and Piccolo by his collar. "I always hated my brother. He was our father's favorite, that is, until he was killed. What do YOU have to do with the Cold Family?"
"My name is Chilled Cold. I believe I'm some kind of ancestor to you or some shit like that."
"Oh really? You wouldn't happen to be THE Chilled Cold, huh? The one with enough psychic powers to activate the cell multiplication system to regenerate someone's body?"
"Yes, the one and the same."
"Great then, come with me, grandpa."
"Don't call me grandpa! I'm NOT old!"
"Whatever, force of habit."
Cooler dropped the asfixiating Tora and the unconscious Piccolo and in a swift move knocked out the three other Saiyans as well. He then escorted Chilled to the core of the Big Gete Star where it was controlled by three-quarters of Cooler's head who was floating in between a conglomerate of wires sticking out of it.
"So this is you?" Chilled asked looking at the head.
"Yes, unfortunately, those monkeys have always been the most annoying race in all of existence," both Coolers said at the same time, "Would you mind regenerating my body?"
"What's in it for me?" Chilled asked.
"I will weaken those filthy monkeys and give you some to kill personally."
"Heh heh heh, revenge, huh?"
"The best type of revenge. How long will it take before I get my body back?"
"Not much, descendant of mine, not much."
Meanwhile on a battlefield not too far away...
"We don't stand a chance, Vegeta, we have to attack him both at once!" Goku said.
"NO! I do NOT need your help, Kakarot. I can do it all by myself."
"Please, Vegeta, you're not listening to me. You can't take him on alone. You are no match for him.
"Grrr, do what you have to do. I'm going." Vegeta rushed towards the Metal Cooler who was patiently waiting a few yards away.
"Vegeta!" Goku yelled as he too rushed towards the metal menace. Their auras merged and their energy doubled. They shot through the robot, disintegrating some parts in the process. Both Vegeta and Goku almost lost their balance when they separated behind Cooler.
"NO! You will NOT regenerate!" Vegeta screamed as he unleashed an energy blast engulfing him completely. Goku followed soon after with his own yellow blast. That managed to open up the recently closed 'wounds' but it wasn't enough.
"Yaaaah!" Vegeta screamed as he unleashed a flurry of energy waves finishing up Cooler for good. They both collapsed on their back after there was nothing left but a few broken chips lying around.
"*pant* *pant* We did it, Vegeta," Goku said.
"Yeah, *pant* it's finally over."
The sound of a rock falling caught their attention. They both looked up and they saw another Cooler standing on the hill in front of them. On both sides of him more and more Coolers appeared. They all filled the horizon.
"Well, Vegeta, I think we're kind of outnumbered by the looks of it," Goku said as he stood up straight.
"Ya THINK?!" he responded, "All I know is that I'm not going down without a fight."
Both Super Saiyans charged their energy to the max while waiting for the metal nightmares to come...
The Core...
"And you're good to go," Chilled said as he was facing the newly regenerated Cooler. All of the wires dropped from his body. Tapping from the Big Gete Star's energy reserves, his power has increased significantly since last time, not to mention he still had his fifth transformation.
"If only my father could see me now," Cooler said to no one in particular, "I was always better than my brother. Ever since I discovered my ultimate form, I was invincible. That was until the Super Saiyan came and ruined my life."
"Ultimate form?" Chilled asked, "What do you mean by that? Last time I checked it was simply called 'Final Form'. You don't seem that strong compared to MY Final Form."
"Heh heh heh, so you didn't know there was another transformation beyond this one?"
Chilled's jaw dropped open. "All these years of transforming only when necessary to a certain level and you're telling me there's one more after that?"
"Just transform into your final form so we can get down to business."
Meanwhile Kageto, Bardock and Fasha woke up. Tora was leaned up against a wall catching his breath. Piccolo stood up as well.
"Piccolo!" Fasha screamed as she rushed over to him, "Are you alright? Are you hurt?"
"Grmbl, I'm fine. I can regenerate, you know. I don't need your help." Piccolo burst away deeper into the star like he intended to in the first place. Kageto and Bardock were rubbing the spot Cooler hit them unconscious.
"I'm wondering why Cooler didn't finish us off or even Chilled," Kageto said, "We were unconscious. Why keep us alive?"
"I think those two bastards want to toy with us," Bardock added.
"We have to do something," Fasha suggested.
"But what, Fasha? Should we go look for Kakarot or something?" Kageto asked.
"Sounds like a good idea," Bardock remarked, "The more Saiyans we have, the better. Especially a fellow Super Saiyan."
"I can't seem to get a hold of his energy. Can you, Bardock?"
"Hmm..." Bardock concentrated and scanned the area for his son's energy signature... Nothing. "Maybe it's this giant metal piece of junk that's in my way. Do you think he's somewhere in here?"
"There's only one way to find out," Tora said after he fully recovered, "We have to infiltrate the Big Gete Star..."
*BOOM* The entire place shook like a leaf. A giant round piece of metal fell from the ceiling causing another boom.
"Can you feel that energy?!" Fasha asked in shock.
"It's Chilled! He's transforming!" Kageto sensed.
"We have to get there fast!" Bardock remarked and they all went storming deeper into the gigantic structure.
The Core...
Chilled was up to his third form by now. His head was as long as a banana and he had a series of horns making their way up from the sides. His tail grew longer and spiked. He shrunk compared to any Acrosian's second form. Two biogems appeared on the back of his hands and his face was more decent than Frieza's face was when HE got to that form. The place was collapsing but not because of Chilled's power level but because the Big Gete's main memory and control was Cooler's head. He was now detached from the main computer.
"*sigh* Why do things like this happen?" Cooler asked no one in particular while picking up a wire and sticking it through his upper arm. The shaking stopped now that Cooler was once again connected to the main computer. Suddenly two Metal Coolers entered the room holding a Saiyan each. Goku and Vegeta were unconscious.
"*sigh* Just put them over there," Cooler ordered with a hand gesture, "Oh and hook them up to those wires and start the extraction process."
The metal clone did exactly what Cooler ordered. Soon, the wires were glowing of golden energy and disappearing to the rest of the star.
"How much longer are you going to take, Chilled?" Cooler asked impatiently.
"Be patient, boy. Changing my entire body structure in the time I'm doing it is no easy task. You should know that I can't transform just like that."
"Out of all the transformations, that one is the ugliest and the most annoying," a deep voice sounded behind them. Standing in the doorway... was Piccolo.
"Well, if it isn't the local guide," Cooler said calmly, "Care to show us around your soon to be space dust planet?"
"Grr, you will pay for what you're doing to this planet."
"Oh really? How much do I have to pay? I work in the Planet Trade business so give me any number. How about I give you a blank check?" Cooler phased out of sight and kicked Piccolo in the back causing him to fall forward.
"Now I recognize you. You're the Namek I gave a bad case of explosion."
"Is that contagious?" Chilled asked.
"*Sigh* Am I surrounded by morons? Anyway, I was wondering how you survived both by Death Beam and that blast."
"I... drink a lot of juice."
"Oh really? What kind of juice? Braspelberry? Gralemon? Goticulous? Do you even have those fruits? They're quite delicious. Especially when you make juice out of them."
"No, just simple orange juice."
"Orange... Orange... Orange... Nope, I never heard of that. Where can you get that?"
"On Earth. Oh and I also drink lots of water. That helps."
"Hmm, so juice and water, huh? And I've been missing out all these years?"
"It's been a long time since I fought with this form, Cooler. I'm going to kill the Namek," Chilled said.
"Fine, I don't really care. I have those two power sources hanging there. I practically have all I need. We'll go fetch the rest of the Saiyans after you transform into your final form."
"Deal!" Chilled yelled as he rushed over to Piccolo. He did a somersault and landed behind the third form monster.
"I have gotten stronger than the time I fought Frieza," Piccolo said out loud, "I can now stand my own against you. Your power level and his power level in this form are almost the same. We are evenly matched."
"Did you hear that, Cooler? The Namekian garbage thinks he's as strong as me!"
They both burst in laughter at that joke. They didn't realize Piccolo was heading straight towards Goku and Vegeta. He cut the wires on both of them causing them to fall down.
"What are you doing?!" Cooler asked with a look of fear in his eyes.
"I'm doing what I came here to do. I came to free my... fffrr... ff... rrfrf... allies." Piccolo was having difficulty admitting they were his friends. He'd rather die.
"Chilled! You get that Namekian before I get VERY angry."
"Who are YOU to boss me around? I'm the Acrosian Supreme! I go higher above you!"
"I don't know and I don't care what a Supreme is or does. You need to get rid of the Namek before those two wake up!"
"Grr, fine. Finger Beam Barrage!" Chilled unleashed a barrage of purple beams piercing every square centimetre of Piccolo's body.
"I think he's feeling a little... holey today," Chilled joked.
They both burst into laughter but Cooler cut it short. "Help me get those two Saiyans back connected to those wires."
"Not so fast!" a voice sounded from behind them yet again. They turned around slowly and behold... Krillin.
"And who the hell might YOU be?"
Krillin suddenly coward out and was planning to make a run for it when Oolong and Yajirobe pushed him back 'on stage'.
"I... um... I was... um... just passing by... This kid was running in the hallway and I said 'Not so fast!' to stop him, you know. There... um... There's no running in the hallway... Someone has to keep the discipline and manners around here, am I right?" Krillin let out a nervous chuckle and rubbed the back of his head.
"How did you manage to escape detention?" Cooler asked.
"Uh... Well... The power went on and off and the 'teacher' shut down as well so... We made a ru... I mean walk for it before the power came back on. Heh heh."
Cooler was increasingly infuriating by the second. There were just too many flaws happening in a ten minute span.
"Grrrrrr... GRRRRAAAAAHH! That's IT! I am PISSED. I am sick, sick, SICK of all of this crap happening to me at once and when I'm not sick, I'm TIRED! I am SICK and TIRED! Sauzer Blade!" Cooler spawned a long blade of purple energy out of his right hand and charged at Krillin. He was frozen on the spot. He was too afraid to move.
"Chilled! Transform already! And as for you... DIE, Earthling!" Cooler yelled as he slashed the Blade downwards with the plan to cut him vertically in half. His blade was hindered by an obstacle above Krillin's head. It was a white longsword made of energy.
"What the...?!" Cooler managed to muster before his purple blade of energy was shattered. He summoned a new one, however.
"Get out of here NOW!" Tora instructed the pig, the fat samurai, the bald monk and the old pervert. They ran out of there as fast as their legs could carry them. "I already killed you twice, Cooler. Wanna go for a third time?"
"Grr, you filthy monkey! How DARE you interrupt me when I kill? Now it's YOUR turn to die!"
Behind them could be see how Chilled achieved his perfect form. He was smooth as a baby and looked harmless just like Frieza but the large round biogem covering his head was blue instead of pink. His kneecaps were also biogems and so were his elbows and shoulders. His tail, however, consisted of segments surrounded by biogems all the way to the tip. His power was a little higher than Cooler's but not that much.
"No one is dying today," Kageto said as he appeared behind Tora. He raised his hand trying to mimic Tora's attack but horribly failed. "Damn it, Tora, how do you do that?"
"It comes naturally, you know? Why can't you summon a sword? It's very easy."
"Beats me. What do you think about killing a certain Cold Lizard?"
"Sounds good to me."
Cooler backed away at the sight of the two Saiyans approaching. He bumped into Chilled who was gaining energy behind him.
"Grr, I have no choice but to transform," Cooler hissed as his body morphed into his fifth and ultimate form. His vizor closed above his mouth and he was battle-ready. Unbeknownst to him, Fasha and Bardock got Yajirobe's Senzu Bean bag and were in the process of healing Goku and Vegeta while Tora and Kageto were busy distracting Cooler. The two main Saiyans were fully healed and made their way towards the center of the room where the two Acrosians were standing.
"Did you see what I did?" Cooler asked Chilled, "I want you do exactly what I did. You can transform again. All you need to do is believe... Believe in your power and you'll be able to achieve a higher more powerful form."
"Hmph, fine," was his answer. His energy was rising. His eyes turned glowing white. The biogems on his tail protruded like spikes. His face changed into that of Cooler but slightly difference. He was white and blue with pink on some places.
"Alright, bring it on!" both of them said in unison. Cooler grabbed a loose hanging wire and stuck it into his arm. About a minute later a set of sixteen Metal Coolers entered the room and surrounded them.
"Now things are getting interesting," Cooler said with a smirk. All was not lost to them just yet.
"This entire planet will blow up in less than five minutes," Chilled quipped.
"What are you talking about?" Cooler asked, "The Big Gete Star won't finish absorbing the planet's seismic energy for another hour."
"Heh heh heh, unlike YOU I have a backup plan, boy. I possess a star created of my own energy. I can make it do what I want. Now it's on a collision course with this low-life planet. Fortunately for us, we can survive in space. They, however, can't."
(Author Interruption. By logical sense of time I deduced that The Return of Cooler must have happened after Cooler's Revenge and of course after Goku's arrival which indicates Trunks' and Mecha Frieza's arrival as well as Cold's death. I would like to apologize in behalf of the previous chapter. I mentioned there were no Trunks, Mecha Frieza or Cold involved. I would like to take that back. The purpose of this interruption was to brainstorm and deduce that Kageto DID in fact recieve a copy of the Creator's power in this point in time. I apologize for this inconvenient interruption.)
"Are you sure about that, Chilled?" Kageto asked with a grin, "After banishing you from the Realm of Supremes, I kind of got a reward for that. The Creator himself gave me a copy of his powers."
Even though Chilled was wearing a bone mask, a look of fear could be read for one second on his face. Cooler didn't seem to understand the gravity of the situation.
"Who the hell is this Creator guy you two are talking about?" he asked.
"H-he's the strongest being in the universe!" Chilled stammered, "H-he's the one who created the universe!"
"You mean God?"
"Y-yes! If he has a copy of his powers, God knows what he can do with it."
(Nope, The Creator won't appear if you were expecting it.)
"Pfft, I don't believe in this Supernatural crap," Cooler said while charging a Supernova.
"Give it up, Cooler!" Goku tried, "You're surrounded!"
"HA!" Cooler replied, "No, it is YOU that is surrounded. If you take one step, I'll order my clones to attack you."
Fasha was standing next to Tora and Bardock. She leaned over to Tora and whispered in his ear: "See that wire connected to him? I want you to cut it."
"No problem, Fasha," he said returning her whisper. He already had his Alpha Sword out and ready.
"Any secret techiques you have up your sleeves?" Cooler whispered to Chilled.
"I can do that too," Chilled said referring to the Supernova floating above their heads.
"You are certainly not planning on exploding that thing in here, are you, Cooler?" Bardock asked.
"What if I am? If I'm going to hell, I might as well take all of you with me."
"Well, actually," Goku added, "I think most of us are going to Heaven."
"Nobody asked YOU, Kakarot," Vegeta and Bardock said irritated.
"How about we count to ten and start already?" Chilled said irritated, "I'm aching for a fight."
"Explosive Demo Wave!" Piccolo screamed as he fired his yellow energy blast. It collided with the Supernova and pushed it out of Cooler's control. It gained speed and shot diagonally through the ceiling of the place creating a perfect round hole with a large diameter. Apparently it melted through the roof what Piccolo hoped would happen. This was the perfect moment to strike...
Tora rushed forward, jumped and cut the wire connected to Cooler. All of the metal clones froze in position. Chilled, seeing this Saiyan dangerously close to him, backhanded him sending him flying.
A chain of events then followed. Chilled burst out of the roof followed by Cooler close behind who dropped a Death Ball upon exiting. The Z-Fighters and Fate Protectors were blown away after barely making it through the roof. They all crashed onto the blue grass of Namek leaving skid marks indicating their (crash)landing. Both overhead and behind them a huge blinding light blinded the area. The light overhead was caused by the Supernova Piccolo previously blasted to Space. A metal head fell in front of the recovering Vegeta who, after recovering, crushed it with his foot.
"Wow, if we had stayed back there a little longer, we would have been toasted!" Goku remarked.
"There's no time to be slacking around," Vegeta barked, "We still have Acrosians to fry!"
"Come on, Vegeta, we're lucky to be alive!" Fasha commented.
"Hey, Piccolo, are you alright, buddy?" Goku asked.
"Hmph, whatever, I'm out of here," was his response as he flew to the other side of the huge crater to where Gohan and the rest of the Namekians were.
"Mr. Piccolo, you're alright!" Gohan screamed of joy as he jumped on him.
"Get off me, kid! I've had enough blows to my body for one day."
"I-I'm sorry, Mr. Piccolo," Gohan apologized. He lowered his head regretfully.
"*sigh* Don't sweat it, kid. I just had a bad day, that's all." Piccolo could never stay angry at Gohan too long. "Elder, do you have all seven Dragon Balls gathered?"
"Yes, why?"
"To repair the damage done to the planet."
"No, I can't let you do that. We can't rely on the Dragon Balls to solve our every problems. Our planet is big. A crater this size has no effect whatsoever to the rest of the planet."
"Are you sure that's what you want, Elder?"
"It's not a big deal. The lava will harden and a new layer is formed. You don't have to worry about us, Nail."
"How many times do I have to tell you? My name is not NAIL!"
"Don't worry about it, Elder," Dende said comforting the shocked Elder, "He IS Nail but at the same time he's not. That's what happen when our kind fuses. Only one personality remains."
"Yes, that's true," Piccolo said a little calmer.
"Where the hell did those demons go?" Vegeta asked furious. His power level was flunctuating wildly. He was itching for a fight. "Kakarot! Can you sense those two bastard?"
"Hmm... I'm sensing two power levels flying away from the planet."
"What?! Those cowards are bailing out on me? GRRRAAAAH! I will eradicate every last one of them!"
"You will not be able to kill Chilled, Vegeta," Kageto commented, "He's immortal just like me. I'm the only one who can handle him. Just chill, Vegeta, lay low. If they strike, we'll be ready." Kageto was sitting on the ground with his left arm resting on his raised left knee. He was calm. He didn't notice Vegeta burst away to his space pod. He took off and blasted to Space. On his way he passed a massive purple star of energy.
"Kageto, do you sense that?" Fasha asked, "I think Chilled is coming back. It seems he's... stronger."
"F-Fasha?" Kageto responded with a face as pale as a white sheet, "W-we have to leave NOW! That is NOT Chilled. That's his Energy Star! M-mine is stationed back on Earth. In no way it can reach us in time to protect us. Kakarot! Grab everyone you can and get the hell out of here!"
"Right," he responded as he teleported himself towards the group of Namekians. After a few words the group seemed to panic. They all held each other's hands and Goku teleported them to safety. After a few seconds, Goku returned with Elder Moori and they flew at high speed towards the central village where the Dragon Balls are being kept.
"What will we do now?" Fasha asked all panicky.
"I-I'm not sure, Fasha," Kageto replied, "The best option is to leave the planet. There's nothing we can do to save it..."
"Can't you push it back somehow?" Fasha asked.
"No, that would be impossible. It's not controlled by me. We have to leave now."
"Hmph, it's all the same to me," Bardock said. He grabbed Tora by his collar and vanished.
"Can't we save the planet somehow?" Fasha tried again.
"If we could, I would tell you. There's nothing we could do."
Fasha shed a tear and they both disappeared off of the surface of Planet Namek. Moori managed to grab three of the huge Dragon Balls. Goku could manage to grab only two. He DID have to use his left hand to teleport them after all.
"We still need the last two!" Moori yelled.
"There's no time! We can recover them with Earth's Dragon Balls."
The entire planet was starting to shake. The energy star was getting dangerously close. Its gravity was pulling loose rocks into the air. A frog jumped into the air but got stuck. The star was sucking everything in.
And to the rescue came Bardock (to rescue Goku not the frog). "What's taking you so long, Kakarot?" he asked.
"We need to move the last two Dragon Balls but the Elder want them to stay behind."
"I'll grab them. Just get the hell out of here!"
Goku and Moori disappeared leaving Bardock to grab the last two Balls.
"*sigh* Planet Namek destroyed for a second time by those Ice-demons."
Bardock vanished just before everything was sucked into the star. The entire planet was overwhelmed by the massive energy star. There was not one spec of dust left to be called Namek.
Nine days later...
"Oh Great Porunga, come forth and grant our wishes!" Dende yelled.
As usual... out came the dragon. You know how it goes. Don't need to describe it.
"You who have gathered the seven Dragon Balls, state your wishes for you have three."
"Oh great Porunga, I wish for our home planet to be restored in its rightful place in the galaxy for it was destroyed!"
"Your wish has been granted. Please tell me your next wish."
"We wish for the evil energy star owned by Chilled to vanish from existence and for him to be stripped of his immortality!"
"Your second and third wishes have been gra... Wait! I cannot grant your wishes. The one called Chilled cannot be tampered with. His power goes above mine. This so called energy star cannot be vanished from existence. There is a higher power at work that goes above mine. An ancient power... The power of the universe. State your second and third wishes so I may leave."
"What do we do now?" Krillin asked, "They can strike whenever we least expect it!"
"Hn, I wouldn't let that happen, Krillin," Bardock stated, "As long as I'm here, you don't have to worry about them."
"But we would be living in fear waiting for a doomsday," Gohan commented.
"Gohan, listen to your grandfather," Chi-Chi said in a stern motherly tone, "Don't say those big words like 'doomsday'. That is never going to happen. We are safe as long as your grandfather is around."
"*sigh* I don't really care if they come here or not. As long as that Big Gete Star is no more, I'm calm," Kageto remarked, "Everyone who can transform into a Super Saiyan is as strong as them. We are five Super Saiyans excluding Vegeta. It's not like we're going anywhere so stop panicking."
"So... Anymore wishes?" Porunga asked.
"Yes, Porunga... We're leaving guys," Dende announced, "We wish for all the Namekians except for Piccolo to be transported to New Namek 2 along with the Dragon Balls. We have no wishes after that so you can leave but on Namek."
"Your wish is granted," Porunga announced. His eyes flashed red and they all disappeared. The skies cleared up and everyone scattered.
"Let's go, Goku," Chi-Chi ordered, "I still have to cook dinner."
Goku's eyes light up at the mention of food. "Can we get a dinosaur to eat?" he asked with a watery mouth.
"NO! You know damn well how long it takes to cook a dinosaur. I am hungry and I don't want to wait hours before it's done."
"But I'm hungry too!" he pouted.
"You're ALWAYS hungry!" she retorted. Gohan grabbed his mother by his waist and flew away.
"Gohan! Put me down this INSTANT!"
"No, mom, we have to get home."
Bardock chuckled at the sight of the lover's quarrel. Those two are always going at it.
"Bulma, what's for dinner?" Kageto asked.
"I'm not handling with any food around here!" she yelled washing her hands off the matter, "Ask my mother. She's the expert."
As all of them entered the house, they could smell the food already. The large dinner table was set with an entire feast. Mrs. Briefs entered the room carrying a huge chicken on a plate.
"Welcome home!" she said with her eternal smile, "How are my favourite fighters?"
"Wow, ma'am, this looks delicious!" Tora complimented.
"Aw, aren't you a sweetheart? Dig in!"
That afternoon was a great one. Everyone was having a good time. Kageto and his crew did their best to get the Chilling Cool tension off the rest. They were all full after the dinner and went to bed satisfied.
End of the disastrous Part 33
Epic chapter, if I may say so myself. If you haven't realized it yet, this chapter is extra long. How do I write so fast, you ask? I drink a lot of juice :p. You'll be expecting Part 34 as well. It's called Koji: The Warrior of Silence. It covers Koji's backstory. I apologize if you thought in Part 22 that Koji was Vegeta's son as well:
"Who? Koji?" Vegeta asked.
"No, your OTHER son." Kageto answered.
You might take this the wrong way so I'm clearing it up now. Koji is Vegeta's right hand man. He picked Vegeta up from Planet Argon after Kageto left him there. Ever since, they went on an adventure while staying below the radar. I'm considering writing a seperate story about him. Actually, I already decided. The next part is also the first chapter of the new story. It's written in Koji's POV (Point of View). Please review and tell me what you think of it in the next chapter.
As you can guess, Cooler and Chilled will return in the future. The question is when (evil laugh). Also, I need to know if you readers want Broly after Koji or the main storyline. Please tell me in a review.
Talking about POV, there's a great story out there written by someone who specializes in POV. It's called: Appule's Insurrection. I'd say it's the best Appule story out there considering no one writes about Appule... Written by 'pointer39'.
Also we have Dragon Ball Z: The Atrox Saga. A very cleverly thought out story about an OC named Roy written by none other than 'lucifvegeta'. Things are not what they seem to be in this story. That's what makes it so breathtaking and awesome to read.
The Legend of Bardock. Best Bardock story ever. Need I say more? Written by Vegito73.
Bardock's Redemption. Second best Bardock story ever. It has taken a big turn of events and it's just so... undescribably good. I can't spoil it so you just have to read it. Written by Aron the ultimate hero.
The Legend of Zero. I wrote it in collaboration with Storylover213 and I'm currently working on the next chapter. I think it's a great idea and worth a look. Epic backstory if I may say so myself.
Frozen Memories. A great OC story written by FireStorm1991. Tundra is an Ice-jin who is a part of the Cold family and comes to Earth to kill off everyone to get on the good side of his uncle Cooler. He's the weakest Ice-jin alive. Great plot, great story, great everything. The OC was originally created by Vulaan Kulaas.
You know the phrase 'Save the best for last', right? That's exactly what I'm doing. The epic story that IS 'Saiyan Rising' is written by EpicFlamingJesusRidingAdrago n. It's considered one of the best stories ever written. Also in the best story category falls: 'The Fall of Lord Frieza' by Mr. Arkham, 'Guardian' by Mr. Arkham, 'Bringer of Death' by npberryhill, 'DBZ: The Earthling Chronicles' by FinalFlashX, 'Cognitive Dissonance' by The Forgotten Phoenix, 'A Saiyan Legacy' by Goku Rules 98.
Yours truly,
-K
