A/N: Espeon804 here with another great chapter. Sorry for the cliffhanger. I just had to do it! Looks like Goku and a Raditz aren't getting along. Seems like Raditz started the fight. The reasoning behind it... Let's find out! It's kinda short but it's focuses on one thing. You'll see.
Hint… Raditz does something that will give him the scare of his life!

- Chapter 15: Raditz's mistake! Results? Kakarot's wrath! -
Last time on "The wrath of the Earthling Saiyan":
"You're a fool to believe in dreams." Raditz starts to increase his pace, once again distancing himself from his brother.
Kakarot was going to let it be but his slowly rising frustration tells him that he had enough. He has enough with his brother always teasing him and doing all the name calling. "Is that all you're going to call me now? What is your problem?! It's like you think I'm the one who's always wrong!"
"Because you have always been. Your immature personality blinds your judgement. what's the point of fretting over a dream. You don't remember them Kakarot!" Raditz simply replies. There is a hint of anger in his voice.
"So just because you are older than me means that you can tell me what to do all the time. It means that you are always right because you know more than me? Raditz, I've been on Earth my entire life! They say that most dreams like that means something real, especially if your instincts tells you so! I understand that i wasn't born there but I lived with the customs you know!"
Raditz stops walking and turns around staring at his brother. This is the first time Kakarot talked to him this way. Normally he would cower and listen but he seems to be rebellious at this moment. "Enough of this. We have to go."
"What? Are you afraid of the truth? Are you afraid of facing the facts? My father hardly knows me and he told me what has happened! You know him better than I do! I guess he tld me knowing that I will avenge him unlike you."
"Even if this is true, I would never challenge Lord Frieza!" Raditz shouts.
"Exactly! I would! And you call yourself a Saiyan! What I see is someone who refuses to accept changes in life. Someone who can't accept his brother for who he is! That is the definition of a coward!" Okay, he's going too far but he can't help it. His blood is really boiling and topping that with his frustration, he can't stop.
"Coward?! You're calling me a coward?!" Raditz can't believe this! How dare his brother insult him with that word!
"Uh, yeah! a coward! I heard how you are afraid of dying in combat from Nappa! a true warrior should never be afraid of dying, especially if it means protecting who you care about! I knew that since I was a kid! It looks like that I am more of a warrior than you! It's not always about strength. It's about courage! That is what you are missing! I see that because you denied everything I told you when a true brother should accept what his sibling says! It's no wonder why they call you weak! You were just as strong as those Saibamen! You mock the weak but you fear the strong! You're no true Saiyan!"
Raditz snarls and he knees his brother on the stomach. As Kakarot crashes many feet away he shouts; "You are nothing compared to a Saiyan! You breed with a Human instead of killing them! You allowed a Human weaker than you to run your life after that halfbreed son of your came by!"
Kakarot stands and gives his brother a death glare. "How dare you insult my son!"
"What? Did I hurt your feelings?"
"Oh no. It's just that I feel ashamed for you if name calling is the only thing you are truely good at!" Kakarot shouts back.
"I'll show you how much of a true warrior I am! I'll teach you a lesson that'll make you wish that you were dead along with those Humans!" Raditz sprints his way towards Kakarot as Kakarot sprints his way towards Raditz. They clash and a violent beating is displayed between them both.
"What the hell?!" Vegeta turns around and sees the drama. "Dammit, dammit, dammit! Not now! Out of all the time we had they decide to bicker like children! Such idiots!" He facepalms repeatedly and he stops. "Those two give me a headache by just watching them argue! Now they are fighting at a time like this?!"
Nappa shrugs. He isn't surprised. "I saw it coming."
Karot however is horrified. Seeing his father and uncle fighting like a pack of hyenas is bad news. from the way they are fighting, they could kill each other!
Nappa sees the hybrids expression. "Don't worry too much. It's common for Saiyan siblings to fight like this. It's pretty entertaining. I never saw Kakarot so angry before!"
Karot angrily stomps on Nappa's foot.
"Ow! Why you little brat!"
"Easy Nappa. he's upset at the moment. He isn't use to these kind of things remember?" Vegeta warns the general. "But still. If they don't stop this soon I'll have to break this up myself, and they won't like what I'm planning to do." He even believes that they might seriously wound each other at this rate. The way they are fighting means that they pissed each other off.
Raditz ignores his brother's cries of pain as he bats him down on the ground. He'll teach him a good lesson! Thoughts are changed when Kakarot springs up and uppercuts his chin. It becomes a violent spar again.
Karot pleads that they will stop. He hates seeing them like this. Not just because they both have great anger towards each other but, because they seemed mentally hurt.
- Now -
"You ignorant scum!" Raditz lands a punch on his little brother's head forcing Kakarot to stumble backwards. He gives him not time to recover. Raditz jumps and spins with his right leg extended, kicking Kakarot on his side sending him flying a couple feet away. As soon as his foot touches the ground Raditz uses it to spring himself at his target. He uppercuts Kakarot while the younger Saiyan was rising to his feet. Kakarot falls on his back. Raditz stops and stands, curling his finger and pulling it towards him in a back and forth motion. "C'mon! Get up! If you aren't a weakling then show me what you got!"
Vegeta gets a bit interested in this fight but, he still isn't thrilled with it either. "If they don't stop this nonsense anytime soon, surely we'll be in the radar."
Kakarot pushes himself up only to get kicked on his chest. He is shoved across the field and his head collides with a giant boulder. It nearly knocks him out cold. He lays there dazed. He spoke out to Raditz on how he feels. The results certainly weren't what he was expecting. Then again, Raditz is a Saiyan after all. Still, if he doesn't fight back effectively, he'll be labeled as the weakling and that is not what he wants. He'll have to knock some sense into Raditz. That's the only option left. Through the whole year, Raditz treated him like trash.
He's sick of it.
He pulls himself up and stands. Raditz appeared in front of him with in a flash. He sees the incoming punch so Kakarot rises his arm and he blocks it. He struggles to push Raditz's hand away. Kakarot may have gotten stronger but, Raditz is still stronger than him… so much faster than him. He's lucky for blocking this.
Raditz sweeps his little brother off his feet with his leg and grabs a handful of hair. He pulls Kakarot high above him and starts to punch Kakarot's chest with his free hand. He laughs while his little brother suffers. "How does it feel to know that you are all bark but no bite?"
Kakarot attempts to kick Raditz but his big brother hold him too far to land a hit. His legs are an inch away from his head when he flails them around.
"I'm going to knock you out!"
Kakarot sees the ball of pinkish energy gathering on his big brother's free hand. Quickly and cleverly, Kakarot uncoils his tail from around his waist and slaps Raditz on the face with it hard. Surprisingly he had put in enough force to knock Raditz off his feet and crashing to the ground. Kakarot makes a mental note to do that more often.
Raditz didn't expect that. He growls and glares at his brother. "He's a visual learner. He learns things by simply watching and observing. Stole that trick of mine he witnesses on the beach when I slapped that monk away with my tail." His growls grow into a snarl. "Why? He's always picking up on something! Why can't I do the same dammit!" He lunges at Kakarot and punches him, watching him stumble again. The two starts to spar violently again. Raditz finally lands many hits, aiming all over Kakarot's body like bullets. He's not holding back this time. He'll punish his little brother for sure.
Kakarot can't endure all this. Sure, the armor is helping a lot but it still hurts like hell. When Raditz gets close he headbutts his head. While Raditz covers his forehead from the pain Kakarot attempts to kick him down only to miss. Raditz attacks him again and he finds himself in a headlock.
"Stop trying so hard and accept defeat already!" Raditz demands. He tightens his grip and now his little brother is gasping for air. "You can either say it or faint. Either one I will accept."
"What is it…. that you want? An… apology?!" Kakarot chokes out. His hands grip on Raditz's arms in hopes to pull them away. He can't breathe. If he stays in this situation any longer he'll pass out from lack of oxygen.
Raditz frowns. "I'm not asking for your pity! I'm telling you to just shut up and do your job instead of dreaming so desperately!" He tightens it even more. Any further and he might break his brother's neck.
Kakarot feels lightheaded. Unable to move from the lock he's in he resorts to the only options he has left. He pushes his brother's arms closer to his mouth and sinks his teeth into it.
Nappa and Vegeta's eyes widen in surprise. That was not expected.
"AAAAHHHH!" Raditz releases his brother the moment he feels teeth digging into his arm. It bleeds slightly and the teeth marks are clearly seen. He stares at his brother. "Still having that biting problem aren't you?! That's a coward's move!"
Just as Kakarot stands he kicks him down and this time he pins him down with his foot. "You just don't know when to learn do you?! Always have you been a fool!" He slams his foot on his chest and ignores his little brother's pain filled scream. "Don't like that don't you? Well, I don't either! It reminds me on how you endlessly scream for hours when you were a baby! Must I remind you?" He continues to slam his foot down over and over. His brother's screams grow worse each time. "Yes! I remember it so clearly. I couldn't stand you the moment you were born! You were the weakest Saiyan baby born on Planet Vegeta with a power level of 2! You kept crying and crying and it never stopped!" He slams his foot as hard as he can and Kakarot screams loud enough to agonize his sensitive ears. "Shut up!" He kicks his head in attempt to knock him out but Kakarot screams again. "They took interest in you! You were weak but you had the powerful lungs of a true warrior they said! You'll grow up to become a great warrior they said!" He kicks him again. "And what did they say to me? Nothing! They spat on me because I have no potential! How did he survive the explosion of Planet Vegeta? This weakling shouldn't be here they said!" His foot hits Kakarot's skull again. He feels relief for his ears as his little brother becomes silent nearing unconsciousness
Kakarot groans and he pulls his head up with the strength he had. "It sounds like they liked me. I… see that you have… jealousy issues."
Raditz's anger rises even further. "So now you are saying that I am jealous? Oh please!" He kicks his brother's head back down. "I have always been stronger than you and will always be! You put shame in the Saiyan race the moment you befriended those earthlings!"
"It's not as bad as cowering when you're in death's door." Kakarot replies. he screams again when Raditz's foot slams on his chest again.
Raditz covers his ringing ears. "I thought I told you to shut up!" He kicks Kakarot's head again.
Karot is horrified. His uncle looks as if he's about to break every bone in his father's body. "No! Uncle Raditz please stop!" He begs.
Raditz chuckles lightly at his nephew's plead. Still angry he replies; "And what are you going to do about it? It'll be best if you stay on the sidelines and watch your father fail!" He looks back at Kakarot and grins darkly. "Shall I show you? Here!" He laughs while continuing to stomp on his brother's chest. Kakarot's screams are getting weaker now. "Pathetic!"
"Please…" Karot's eyes start to water. All he knows is that his father is in a lot of pain and he needs to stop it. "Stop…" Seeing that his uncle won't comply, anger consumes him. "I SAID STOOOOP!"
Raditz does stop but, only because of his nephew's change in attitude. "What?"
Karot is unaware that his body is once again getting consumed with the same red aura as the year before. "Leave my daddy… ALOOOOONE!" It engulfs him and he lunges at his uncle with a raging scream.
"Not again!" Raditz shouts. He gets into a defensive stance and dodges most of Karot's punches and kicks. Suddenly his nephew stops and jumps back, creating a gap between them. He watches his hands go over his head. His scouter beeps. "Power level 3,020?!"
"MASENKO!"
Raditz sees the yellow blast shooting from Karot's hands. It slams on his chest and he is flings yards across the field and crashing down on the dirt. He curses out himself in every foul word in the Saiyan language for letting down his guard. "Now I'm done playing around!" He gets up and stares down his once again horrified nephew. "A Saiyan halfbreed should act like one! Stay down!" He rises a leg and it makes contact with Karot's stomach. The poor kid dangles there in pain.
Kakarot is now terrified for his son's sake. "G-gohan!"
Raditz huffs looking back at his little brother who is fighting to at least sit up. "Still trying to break away from the habit of calling him by his earthling name I see? Oh, that reminds me." He looks back at his nephew. "We got rid of every earthling except for two. Those two woman who escaped. Then again, your son counts for being born on Earth."
Kakarot's stomach drops. "No! You're not saying-"
"Yes. Your son is half of the most weakest race I have ever seen! Just looking at him brings shame. He's barely one of us brother!" He throws Karot below him on the ground as he adds; "So I'll make it one less earthling nagging to deal with!" His hand crackles with pink static. "Witness this! My Saturday Crush!" He thrust his hand forward and Karot lets out a horrible scream that stabs his father right through his heart.
Nappa marches forward. "RADITZ!"
However, Vegeta puts an arm in front of him. "Wait a minute…" He looks at Kakarot who manages to sit up. The low-class's face becomes pale.
Kakarot tries to sense his son's energy but he feels nothing. His son lies there motionless. His biggest fear for his son has came true. He failed to protect him from harm and, now he's dead from being killed… by his own uncle.
"There. Now he won't be a problem for us anymore." Raditz dusts off his hands as if he was finished with a dusty project. He looks at his little brother again and sees the look on his face. "You should be grateful brother. He gets on my nerves too with his endless crying and tantrums." He then frowns, familiar with the look he is receiving now. He sees the eyes of someone who has been betrayed in his brother's eyes. Kakarot is looking at him as if he's a monster. As soon as he spots it, his brother's eyes turn into a pair of raging ones. Inside is far from a wildfire. It's explosions of rage and hatred. Something told Raditz that he's about to witness something really bad.
And he certainly is. Kakarot was horrified and felt betrayed. His own brother killed his son. His only son. He pledged to protect him and he failed. It's because of Raditz's selfish ways. Raditz killed his own nephew in front of everyone's eyes! That horror changes. Kakarot feels his blood boiling out of control. His skin feel as if it is being scalded by his own blood rushing through his veins. His tail's fur bristles and sticks out in all directions while it whips powerfully behind him strong enough to probably knock down a tree. Every cell in his body is screaming for him to punish Raditz for the heartless thing he has done to what remains in their family. He can hear the growls escaping his throat. The look on Raditz face tells him that he must be scaring him from the way he is reacting to this. How else can he react? His 5 year old son got killed!
Raditz pushes away his small fear and laughs. "What's the matter? You don't look so good!"
"You heartless bastard…" Kakarot snarls in a way that sent chills down Raditz spine. "You… YOU KILLED MY SOOOOOON!" He roars to the sky as his ki flares out of control whipping powerful wind around everyone and kicking up leaves and loose grass. A terrible scream explodes from his throat as he lunges at Raditz and starts to throw several punches with all his might. He doesn't care of Raditz is in a lot of pain. Anyone who kills anyone he cares about will not leave without any wounds from him.
Raditz is receiving the beating of his life. He can barely block any of the punches he is getting. He is clueless. Where is that strength coming from?!
Even Nappa is in shock from what he is witnessing. "Kakarot never acted like this before."
"I can't blame him." Vegeta agrees. "He is beyond pissed."
Raditz leaps back to distant himself from his raging brother. He needs to catch a breathe. His body is throbbing with new bruises. He hears movement and his scouter beeps. He looks behind him and is punched on the face rapidly. He ducks and attempts to punch his brother down but he is kicked away. So he leaps up into the air and delivers his Double Sunday attack. Kakarot dodges that and soars down at him and elbows Raditz on his backside. The long-haired Saiyan growls and attempts to knock him down only for his brother's fist to slam on his stomach hard enough to make him cough out blood. He presses his arms against the punched area while hollering and gasping. He glares at his brother again as blood-coated saliva seeps from the gaps of his teeth.
Kakarot sees the faint fear in Raditz's eyes. He decides to end this now. Raditz throws one punch and he catches it. Raditz throws another and that is caught as well. Having both hand in his clutches, Kakarot starts to squeeze them. Raditz hollers as the bones in his hands sound as if they are breaking. He tries to headbutt him but Kakarot gets him first instead. Kakarot elbows his chest and he falls. He punches him on the head, then his stomach again. He beats up his big brother for another handful of seconds before ramming him on the ground with his knee.
Raditz lays there for a second in disbelief. Once again angry for feeling so weak, he attempts to attack him but Kakarot hugs his body and starts to crush him with his arms and legs. with all limbs useless, Raditz's coiled tail glows orange for a seconds before it whips his brother off his feet. He does that better. His brother is just a copy-cat. He didn't expect for Kakarot to stop his fall by grabbing on to his tail. The pain bursts through his spine now that his weak spot is being pulled on from the weight of his brother.
Kakarot stands now and grabs hold of his tail and rises a knee. "I will make you suffer!" He promises. He doesn't wait for a reply. He pulls his brother's tail down while kicking up his leg. They hit each other and he hears a loud snap and Raditz agony-filled scream. He watches Raditz fall on the ground while his now broken tail flails around like a squirming worm trying to get out of harm's way.
Raditz can't stop screaming. His tail is broken which mean it'll send explosions of pain stabbing all over his body for hours. It's the worst thing to happen to any Saiyan either if their tail is a weakness or not. "H-how DARE YOU!" He manages to fire a ki blast. It's pathetically weak but it does his Kakarot's face and burns it.
Kakarot yells and tries to rub off the pain. It won't stop him. The way Raditz is screaming reminds him of his son's horrible scream when he killed him. His feet leaves the ground as his rage reaches it's peak. he cups his hands and brings them to the side. "KAAAAAA…"
Vegeta's scouter beeps. Kakarot is gathering a lot of ki to deliver a lethal blast. "His power level is rising again! Just what is his true power?!" He pauses. "No… he couldn't have achieved it! He's a low-class warrior!"
"MEEEEEE…"
Nappa sees a blue ball of energy growing from Kakarot's hands. "That's some attack! He's not planning to hit Raditz with that is he?"
"HAAAAAAA…"
Raditz looks up and sees his little brother creating the energy of his signature attack. "Kakarot!"
Kakarot doesn't listen. Raditz is a monster. He doesn't deserve to live. "MEEEEEE…!"
Raditz knows that Kakarot is not holding back. The way he is looking at him now fully terrifies him. Kakarot looks as he wants him dead. "Kakarot! Kakarot STOP!"
Vegeta takes the note of what is going to happen. "Nappa! Stop him now!"
Kakarot thrusts his hands forward. "HAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" The giant blue blast shoots down and at Raditz fast. He can hear his brother screaming at the end of his life. Confusion hits them both when the Kamehameha Wave makes a sharp turn and hits the ground instead. There stands Vegeta in front of Raditz. He deflected the attack. Kakarot was about to lunge for Raditz again when pain shoots up his spine. He turns around and sees that Nappa has hold of his tail.
"Idiots! Are you trying to get us all killed?! Your foolish fighting probably has us detected in the scouters!" Vegeta snaps.
Kakarot growls. "He killed my-"
"No he did not! He's still alive but barely. Raditz merely grazed him on purpose." Vegeta points out. He points at Karot and adds. "Just use your scouter. You're so enraged you can't detect his low energy!"
Nappa turns on the scouter for Kakarot since he can barely move. The numbers shift and Kakarot is in shock. His son hangs on to his life with a power level of only 1. "H-he's alive…?" He looks at his brother as whatever remains in rage disappears. "I could have killed Raditz…"
"That's right. Thanks to you two, I couldn't stop the fight so easily. I thought you were going to stop but after seeing Karot get injured and Kakarot's reaction, I knew that I had to stop it soon. Now we are all detected. We have to move out now. I'll have to make sure none of you try to kill each other again..." He starts to rise into the air holding on to Raditz's arm, bringing him up with him. "Nappa, put him to sleep."
Kakarot is puzzled. "What? Sleep? What do you mea-" He didn't get to finish as his tail is chopped on a pressure point. Instantly he is knocked out.
Raditz watches his brother go limp. He's been knocked out easily by his weakness. Raditz has it worst with a broken tail. He fights to stay awake. "He was willing to kill me for his son…" He still can't believe this. He sighs. "So that's it. If he would kill his own brother for betraying him… that makes him a true warrior." Finally he gives in and the darkness consumes his vision. He makes one last remark.
"Note to self; Never attack Karot unless you want Kakarot to show his brutal side."
A/N: Finally finish! Didn't expect that huh? Goku's more brutal here because he joined the Saiyans and all. He won't hesitate to kill you if you kill his son!
One thing's for sure, Raditz learned a lesson the hard way!
