Chapter 36

"Kill Vegeta! Take back King Frieza's Kingdom! Kill Vegeta! Take back…" the Outsiders were chanting.

They were far away from their home, which was not actually their home anymore. They were marching toward the Vegeta Kingdom, where they were going to attack. It was all for Frieza's sake.

Raditz, as usual, was right in the front of his pack. He was not even attempting to hide his big evil grin on his face - not even from Goten. All of their eyes were right on the prizes - taking out Vegeta and his family and taking back their former home.

At this point, they did not even care about his own lives. That was how harsh their reality was. Hundreds of them were banished to the land where there was barely food and water. Nobody would've wanted to live this way. For years, a few of them committed suicides because they could not take it anymore.

But, Raditz was patient. He knew that Gohan and Goten had high potential. Even though the mission was a failure, Ketsu and Goten were still manipulated until the end. He knew that Ketsu would do anything for Goten, even if he was going to die for him.

Now, Goten wanted revenge. That was exactly what Raditz wanted. Goten was a Super Saiyan and could probably match Vegeta's power level.

They slipped into the small calm river, not even caring about getting soaked. The closer they got to the kingdom, the angrier they became. Their growls were getting louder and louder along with their growing excitement.

It was time for them to fight back and to take over the Vegeta Kingdom. It was all for Frieza's sake… and oh, sweet revenge.

~WE ARE NOT ONE~

Vegeta was walking fast - no, he was stomping through one of the large hallways. Now that he made sure that every single Elite was at every entrance and exit everywhere in the kingdom, he needed to talk to Trunks. He must ensure that his son understood the situation. Especially about Gohan being the Outsider… and the leader of the Outsiders was Raditz.

As much as Gohan was a nice guy, he was still one of Raditz's subordinates… or rather, he was manipulated by Raditz. Either way, the Outsiders were thirsty for the blood of Vegeta family.

"Sir!" the Elite Saiyan bowed his head at the waist level.

"Open the door," Vegeta demanded, crossing his arms. "Don't knock."

"Yes, my King," the Elite opened the door and moved out of Vegeta's way. He knew not to anger the King any further or else there would be a serious consequence.

As soon as Vegeta got in his son's bedroom, he knew Trunks was not here. There was not a single ki presence anywhere in the room.

"Again? Fucking goddammit!" Vegeta yelled, turning to leave his son's room. He gave the Elite Saiyan a deadly glare. "You! Look for Trunks… and make sure not to overlook a single spot in the kingdom!"

"My King! King Vegeta!" a short Saiyan turned around the corner and stopped himself from running and crashing into his King. "Ack! Sir!"

"What the fuck do you want?" Vegeta growled at the second-class Saiyan. "Can't you see I'm fucking busy?!"

"I'm so sorry to interrupt you, sir! But this is also important! The Outsiders are coming, sir! It's all-out war!"

"Outsiders?" Vegeta asked angrily. Situation after situation grew worse and worse. "Thank you. I'll take care of the Outsiders. And you, Elite, tell the third-class Saiyans to start the search for Trunks!"

"Yes, sir!" The Elite Saiyan bowed his head again before getting dismissed by the great King.

Vegeta decided to take the shortcut by using the window to leave the castle. He went to the other side of the castle and landed on his large balcony where Kakarot was thinking by himself.

"Vegeta?" Kakarot blinked in surprise. It was not usual for Vegeta to use this shortcut. Technically, it was not an appropriate manner to do as the royal family.

"Gather every warrior we can find. The Outsiders are coming," Vegeta said.

"Oh, it's time?" Kakarot was pouting cutely.

"You knew this would happen?"

"You know my brother," Kakarot shrugged his shoulders. "He would do anything to get his life back. You took that away from him."

"He was one of Frieza's followers! Look, Kakarot, this isn't time for arguing. They can be attacking anytime soon."

"Okay," Kakarot said softly.

~WE ARE NOT ONE~

Ketsu was dead. He was never coming back at all. He would never smile only at Goten… Not ever again. The way he behaved around Goten showed how much caring and loving he could be… The side nobody else could see. Goten loved every moment of just being with Ketsu.

It was all Vegeta's fault that Ketsu was gone.

"Halt," Raditz commended.

Goten and others did so. The younger brother of Gohan slowly looked up at the certain person who was standing on the top of the stone wall.

They made it. They arrived at the entrance gate to the kingdom. However, one thing that stood in their way… was Vegeta and his so-called followers.

"Well, well… look who's waiting for us," Raditz smirked widely at Vegeta. He glanced at the second most powerful Saiyan who was sitting on the wall next to Vegeta. "Kakarot, I'm surprised that you're here. I thought you did not want to fight anymore?"

Kakarot narrowed his dark eyes in anger. "I have had enough. I've been trying to stay out of your way, but you dragged me into this every time. You are no longer brother of mine. As long as you intend to harm our own people, I will always fight back."

"Fight back?" Raditz laughed out loud. "We were the ones who were banished! Of course, we came back here… to fight back! See, Kakarot? You are not as cheerful as the Kakarot I used to know. Has Vegeta changed you at all?" He spoke the name of Saiyan King with so much hatred.

"You…" Kakarot started, getting up but he felt a warm hand on his shoulder. "Vegeta?"

Vegeta leaped from the wall and landed safely on the ground. Now, he was the only one Saiyan who was on the ground. The rest of his army of the first-class and Elite Saiyans were still at the wall, waiting for Vegeta's order.

"I suggest you to turn and go back home," Vegeta said, his cold eyes not leaving Raditz at all. Even though he was not showing any sign of using his ki, tiny rocks were floating around him somehow.

"No, Vegeta. We are home," Raditz grinned with so much mischief in his tone. As soon as he said it, loud thunder boomed. "ATTACK!"

"Yes! Kill Vegeta!" the Outsiders yelled, cheering loudly. They took off into the sky, starting off with the ki attacks and blasts right away.

The followers of Vegeta either blocked and defected their opponents' attacks out of the way, away from the kingdom, but they did not even move one inch away from their post.

"CHARGE!" Vegeta yelled, being followed by his Saiyans' warrior cries.

Both of the sides collided with each other. Hundreds, probably thousands, of Saiyans were fighting each other. If it were 20 years ago, they would never have thought of this possibility… they would never think of fighting their own race. For their whole lives, they had been fighting aliens and been siding with their own race.

Now, it did not matter anymore. The Outsiders wanted to eliminate Vegeta and to take back the kingdom. The Vegeta Kingdom, on the other hand, wanted to protect their own people and the Vegeta family from the threat… which was the Outsiders.

Raditz was just standing there, laughing loudly and watching the fights. Goten was standing next to him, waiting patiently for his order.

"Here you are!" Vegeta yelled, as he knocked away one of the Outsiders and flew fast toward Raditz.

"Goten," Raditz said in amusement, as Goten calmly leaped in front of him.

Vegeta stopped himself and growled angrily at him. "Goten? Get out of my way! Raditz is my opponent!"

"No," Goten said almost dangerously, as his black hair was raising up in the air. "I'm your opponent NOW!"

BOOM!

Vegeta had to shield his eyes from Goten's sudden transformation. Shit! I had forgotten that he can turn Super Saiyan too!

"Vegeta, you killed Ketsu. I won't ever forgive you for that!" Goten said angrily, as the quick lightning bolts sparked around his body, along with bright ki energy.

"Wha… Oh…" Vegeta remembered what he did back then. So, that was Ketsu after all. It was an accident - he did not mean to. He had no choice but to fight back. He did not want to fight in the first place.

No, the Outsiders were not one of them anymore. They were just heartless traitors who wanted to betray their own people in the name of Frieza. Goten was one of the Outsiders.

"Go! Kill the murderer!" Raditz yelled impatiently. Upon hearing this, Vegeta immediately went Super Saiyan.

Goten was about to move just when Kakarot got in between both of them. He narrowed his green eyes angrily. "Stay out of my way."

Kakarot grinned at him widely. "You're Super Saiyan too? You must be strong! Vegeta, please let me fight him!"

"Taking me lightly?" Goten growled loudly.

"What about Raditz?" Vegeta raised an eyebrow in confusion.

"He is the leader of Outsiders, right? That means he is your opponent," Kakarot stretched out his left arm, getting ready for the fight. "Besides, I don't want to fight somebody who used to be my brother."

"Kakarot… no matter how many times you've said… he is your brother. I know that… that's why you don't want to fight him," Vegeta shook his head.

"Vegeta..." Kakarot was about to say something, but he sensed a fast approaching ki presence. He swiftly dodged from Goten's powerful fist. Now, he had time to say, "Go and defeat Raditz!"

Vegeta did not need to hear it again. He just walked forward, passing the fight between Kakarot and Goten.

"Leaving the fight to your mate? You must be a weak coward," Raditz scoffed at the so-called Saiyan King. "How can you call yourself the King if you always depend on others?"

"Shut up. I've had enough of your foolish actions for years," Vegeta clenched his fists, nearly drawing blood from his palms. "You've caused so much trouble for my entire life. You manipulated every single Saiyan just so you could get what you wanted. If Frieza were to be the King, then you would get anything you wanted. Then, I banished you from the Kingdom and you were angry at me for taking everything you wanted away."

"That's correct. Why did you banish us?" Raditz asked.

"Because you betrayed the Vegeta Kingdom! You killed thousands of your own people!" Vegeta was about to charge just when he sensed two approaching ki presences.

"FATHER!"

"RADITZ!"

Before they knew it, Raditz and Vegeta were staring at two certain Super Saiyans between them. Their high power levels stopped all of the fights, including Kakarot and Goten.

"Trunks?" Vegeta asked in so much shock. He did not even think that it would be possible for Trunks to escape from the kingdom? From the castle, yes, but not from the kingdom!

"Gohan? You dared to come back? Facing me after what happened before?" Raditz nearly snarled at Gohan.

"Raditz, I won't allow you to harm Trunks and Vegeta anymore," Gohan gave him a hard stare. "Can't you just see who they really are? They… Vegeta tried his best to make his people happy."

"Happy? HAPPY?!" Raditz screamed. "They fucking corrupted you too, Gohan! Get the fuck out of my way! Vegeta must die NOW!"

"Trunks, you heard him. He wants me dead, so get out of my way!" Vegeta demanded loudly.

"Father… Please listen to me…" The Saiyan Prince softened his sad eyes, as he paused briefly, trying to find the right words. Then he said, "Father, a once wise king used to tell me that we are one. Back then, I never understood what exactly it means. But now… I finally understand…. The Outsiders. Us. Can't you see that we are one?"

"We are one?" Vegeta widened his eyes in surprise. To be honest, he completely forgot about such three important words. But... "Outsiders? You think they are one of us?"

"Yes. See? They are Saiyans too. No matter who they are, we are one," Trunks said again.

"That's…" Vegeta said hesitantly, slowly realizing how much right Trunks was. He glanced at the Outsiders, who were completely in awe of Trunks's words.

Gentle breeze flew passing Vegeta, as if the former Saiyan Kings were telling him that his son, the Saiyan Prince, was absolutely right.

"Trunks…" Goten said softly. He began to walk toward the other side when Raditz stopped him.

"Where are you going, Goten?!" Raditz shouted.

"I'm not fighting anymore," Goten said, as he joined his older brother's side. "Trunks was right. We are no different from each other, so why do we keep fighting?"

"You too…! You betrayed us!" Raditz yelled. He turned to the rest of Outsiders. "Attack now when you have a chance! Kill Vegeta!"

To his much surprise, the Outsiders just walked over to Vegeta's side, deserting Raditz completely.

"What? NO!" Raditz screamed. "Even after 20 years of being banished… you decided to follow Vegeta instead?!"

"Didn't you just hear Trunks?" Goten asked. "This is the one we had been looking for… As much as we may dislike Vegeta, Trunks spoke the true words. We… We need a leader like him."

"Raditz, we don't have to fight anymore," Gohan said carefully, as if he did not want to anger the one who raised him for his entire life. "Nobody has to die."

"NO FUCKING WAY!" Raditz yelled. "Fine! You'll regret the decision to join Vegeta… the one who took everything away from us! All of you will definitely die!"

"Raditz -" Goten was interrupted.

"I have a trump card! You'll be sorry!"

"Trump card?" Kakarot asked.

"Trump card? Ketsu was freaking out about it before…" Goten turned to Gohan with so much worry on his face.

"He's coming at this very moment! You will wish that you never joined the Vegeta Kingdom!" Raditz laughed evilly.

Suddenly, they heard a loud rumbling from above. Immediately afterward, a large shadow covered thousands of Saiyans.

Vegeta widened his green eyes in shock as soon as he recognized the white round object in the sky. "Oh no..!"

"Is that similar to Frieza's spaceship?" Kakarot asked with so much concern. "Is he alive?"

"He is supposed to be dead!" Vegeta hissed under his breath.

"He is the rightful ruler of Planet Vegeta… no, the universe!" Raditz chortled. "This time you will die!"

"Destroy it!" one of the Elites yelled, but Vegeta stopped them just when they were about to take off for the unknown spaceship.

"Don't rush! We don't know who the opponent is and how powerful he may be," the Saiyan King said, as turning away from Raditz. Even Kakarot's brother was no longer threat, now that the Outsiders no longer listened to him anymore.

In the fact, even if the Outsiders were still on Raditz's side, they would still lose to the powers of three Super Saiyans anyway.

"But, my King, we can still destroy the spaceship while we still have a chance!" one of the Elites said worriedly.

"I don't want to lose anybody. It is unnecessary to die not knowing who their opponent is," Vegeta said calmly. "From the looks of that spaceship, it may be one of the Ice-jins, but their strongest warriors were Frieza and Cooler. It may be someone else who is a nuisance… Or coming here for the revenge in the name of Ice-jins."

Thankfully, Saiyans stayed instead of rushing off into the unpredictable battle. They waited patiently until the spaceship landed roughly hundreds of miles away.

"Where… where is his ki?" one of Saiyans asked another who shrugged his shoulders in return. "Is there nobody in that spaceship?"

Kakarot glanced at Raditz who was grinning insanely. "Vegeta… I'm pretty sure there's definitely someone here."

"You think so too?" Vegeta stepped forward in the front of his warriors.

"What's going on, Father?" Trunks asked. "Gohan, do you know anything?"

"No, but Ketsu was definitely freaking out about Raditz's trump card or something like that," Gohan scratched his face cheek in wonder. "But Goten and I forgot about it eventually."

"So, that's why Ketsu wanted to protect me," Goten said softly, as he narrowed his angry green eyes. "He wanted to make sure that nobody, including Raditz, hurts me."

"Goten -" Trunks was interrupted by a loud boom.

"Oh fuck!" one of the Elites cried.

Vegeta and Kakarot, in the Super Saiyan modes, had already gotten to the front of their soldiers, along blocking someone's - definitely an Ice-jin - metal fists. Such collision between them caused a deafening shockwave, which was enough to send away a few of the first-class Saiyans into the air.

The Super Saiyans and the new opponent pushed and jumped away from each other, so that they could take a good look at each other.

Kakarot was the first to react, as he widened his eyes in shock. "You! How is it even possible…!"

"I thought you were dead?" Vegeta glared at the certain Ice-jin. "Who brought you back alive… Cooler?"
