Part 20: "The Namek Saga" (I)
A month later…
"Me-aw!" Tho-Ohki said, as he exits warped space.
"Wow, Namek!" Gohan said excitedly.
"Are we finally here?" Krillin said anxiously. "I mean, after all those misadventures we had to go through in order to get here…"
"Hey, at least you didn't get engage to some Hirogen!" Bulma said angrily.
"What's wrong with that? You guys seem to have the same personality."
"I ought to hit you for that remark…"
"Pipe down," Usagi said, as she piloted her cabbit, who was in starship mode. She then turned towards her grandson.
"So, find a good spot for us to land?"
"According to the sensors, the planet geological strata seem to be pretty sturdy," Gohan said, as he read the sensor data. "We can land pretty much anywhere."
"Good, then buckle up," Usagi said with a smile. "We're in for a bumpy landing…"
Upon landing, the four set up shop inside an abandoned cave. Bulma utilizes her Capsule Corp capsules to create an apartment. Unfortunately, they also realized that a space pod, similar to the Saiyan invaders', had been spotted in the area.
"I can't believe this," Krillin said. "The Saiyans…are here!"
"We don't know that," Usagi said.
"But they do have four of the Dragonballs on this planet," Bulma said. "Whoever they are…"
"Then, we'll just have to get those balls," Usagi said. "I didn't wait for a year to miss a chance to bring back Ranma."
"Or the others," Gohan interjected.
"Sorry," Usagi said with a sigh. "I…I just miss your grandfather dearly."
"I know," Gohan said with a good-natured smile.
"But…what about those power levels we sensed earlier, when we were setting up this hideout?" Krillin said.
"Yeah, they were enormous, particularly that first guy," Gohan said. "It was like sensing a hundred Vegeta(s)…"
Usagi closed her eyes, before opening them to look at her companions.
"We have a choice," Usagi began. We can either go back to Chikyuu, or take a chance and get those Dragonballs for ourselves. And I won't like to you that we might be in the fight of our lives, based upon what I'm sensing…"
Pause.
"So, the choice is yours. And Gohan, I don't want you to be a part of this-"
"Grandma, I'm not going to have you face these guys alone," Gohan said.
"Yeah, me, too," Krillin replied. "We owe it to our friends."
Usagi said with a smile.
"Then, let's get suited up," Usagi replied. She then turned towards Bulma and Tho-Ohki.
"Bulma, you're our eyes and ears," Usagi said. "Oh, and let the guys back on Chikyuu know of our status."
"You got it," Bulma said with a nod.
"Tho-Ohki? Protect Bulma at all cost."
"Me-aw!" the cabbit replied with a salute.
"Okay, let's go get some Dragonballs…"
A short time later, thanks to Bulma's Dragonball radar, Sailor Moon, Krillin and Gohan find the source of the trouble…
"Now, keep your power levels low," Sailor Moon said, as she, Krillin and Gohan lay low on a cliff that was over-looking a Namekian village…
"I'm trying, Grandma, but I can't go any low as Krillin's," Gohan replied.
"Hey!" Krillin replied, referring to the fact that Gohan, in spite of his age, had a power-level that surpassed his…
"Knock it off, Krillin," Sailor Moon said, as she was using her considerable experience to survey the land before her. "I count two dozen soldiers, two elites…and that androgynous-looking creature between the elites."
"You're talking about the woman?"
"No, she's referring to the guy in the middle," Gohan said, as he corrected his godfather. "The only woman there is the large pink…person next to him.
"That's a dude?" Krillin said in surprise. "Wait, that other person is a WOMAN?"
"Krillin!" Sailor Moon said.
"I'm sorry, it's just…I'm nervous about all this."
"So am I, but we have to be careful about this…"
"I think something is happening…"
"What do you want?" said the Namekian elder, as he clutched his two sons.
"Oh, well, we're just in the neighborhood, looking for real estate?" said Freeza, as he smiled briefly. Then, he frowns.
"The hell do you THINK we want?" Freeza said.
"Um, our trees?"
Freeza sighs.
"Zarbon?" Freeza said.
"Yes, Lord Freeza?" said the handsome, light-green skinned alien with long, dark green-hair, which was tied in a ponytail. He had two very large versions of Chikyuu's Dragonballs…
"Two or three more."
"Two or three more?"
"Two or three MORE."
With a shrug, and while still holding the Namekian Dragonballs, the one called Zarbon makes short work of three Namekian villagers.
POW!
BLAM!
SMACK!
The Namekian elder gasped at the brutal efficiency of the murders.
"Now, where were we?" Freeza said. "Oh, yes, the Dragonballs. I want them."
"But I don't have them!" the Namekian elder cried out.
"You know, the last elder who said that to me was quite cooperative…before he died, of course," Freeza said. "And the funny thing is…you're starting to sound like HIM."
"…"
"Now, about those Dragonballs…?"
"Please, don't get upset with us!" the Namekian elder pleaded.
"Oh, I don't get upset," Freeza said. "That's the responsibility of my minions."
Freeza then turned towards a muscle-bound pink alien.
"Dodoria?"
"With pleasure," Dodoria said, as she sets down the Dragonballs she was carrying. But before she could make an example of the Elder…
"Hold it right there!" said a voice from above.
Three tough-looking Namekians drop from the skies.
"Oh, look," Freeza said. "More victims…"
"We will not tolerate your senseless slaughter of our villages!" said the lead Namekian. "Your reign of terror ends TODAY."
"How quaint," Freeza said. "Zarbon? Give the command."
"Dodoria?" Zarbon said.
"Get them," Dodoria said, as she ordered Freeza's troops to attack the Namekian fighters…
"Oh, look!" Krillin said happily, as the fight commences between the Namekian fighters and Freeza's troops. "It looks like the Namekians have warriors of their own to protect the planet."
"I don't know," Gohan said. "I mean, they have awesome skills and all, but they don't have the kind of attitude that Mister Piccolo had…"
"You mean, these guys aren't jerks?"
"Something's not right," Sailor Moon said. "This feels like a set up."
"Huh?" Krillin and Gohan said in unison.
When the battle ends, the Namekian elder destroys the scouters with a wave of his hand.
BANG!
"Now you cannot find the rest of our villages!" the Elder said.
Freeza sighs.
"Dodoria?" Freeza said. "Kill them."
"Humph," Dodoria said, as she moved towards the Namekian warriors…
"You think you can take on all three of us?" said the lead Namekian.
"You must suck at counting," Dodoria said with menace. "From where I'm standing, I only see TWO of you."
"Just what the hell do you mean by that-"
Dodoria seemingly vanishes, only to reappear behind the lead Namekian…with her claws through the Namekian's chest.
"Arrrgh!" the lead Namekian yelled before dying in a heap.
The other two Namekians gasped, as Dodoria rounds on them…
"Grandma, we have to help!" Gohan yelled. "They're killing them!"
"Easy, Gohan!" Krillin said. "We have to be reasonable by this!"
"Gohan's right," Sailor Moon said. "You two: get the remaining villagers to safety."
"What about you?" Krillin asked.
"I'm getting some balls," Sailor Moon said, as she rises to her feet. "Besides, I want to introduce myself to the big bad in proper fashion…"
"Grandma?" Gohan said.
"Just do what I say," Sailor Moon said.
After Dodoria finish off the Namekian warriors, Freeza turns towards the Namek elder.
"So, where do we go from here?" Freeza asked.
"Here," the Namekian elder said, as he presents his village's Dragonball.
"See?" Freeza said, as an underling was about to take the Dragonball from the elder. "That wasn't so bad-"
FWISSSH!
"Huh?" said the underling.
"Zarbon, did that Dragonball disappear?" Freeza said with a frown.
"I'm not sure, Lord Freeza," Zarbon said, as his Dragonballs disappear from his hands. "What?"
"Huh," Dodoria said, as her Dragonballs disappeared as well. "Did I just FEEL something?"
"You, Elder, what is the meaning of this?" Freeza said angrily. "Tell me, and I might spare your life."
"I do not know!" the Elder Namekian said. "I…I do sense a presence…like a ghost just passed by…"
"Uh-hum," said a voice from above.
Freeza and his elites looked up to see a ridiculously-dressed female, who was floating above them while levitating the Namekian Dragonballs.
"It appears that Dodoria's 'ghost' is some girl with mini-skirt and 'fuku'," Zarbon said. "Personally, THAT sort of outfit is SO last decade…"
"Just who are you and why do you have MY Dragonballs?" Freeza asked.
"I am 'Sailor Moon', and I have need of these balls," Sailor Moon said. She had used her Bene Gesserit training to give the appearance of having super-speed…
"Huh," Dodoria said. "Sounds like someone is desperate."
"I'll say," Zarbon said.
"Are you in league of these Namekians?" Freeza asked.
"No, I am not."
"Oh, good. Dodoria?"
In short order, one of the Elder's sons is killed with a blast from Dodoria's mouth.
FWOOSH!
BOOM!
"My son!" the Elder yelled.
"Actually, he's okay," said Krillin, as he holds the Namekian child. He had gotten the child at the last minute…
"I got the other one!" Gohan said, as he held another Namekian child.
"Oh, good, they're safe," the Elder said.
"Unfortunately, the same cannot be said for you," Freeza said.
"What-?"
Dodoria suddenly appears behind the Elder, and snaps his neck.
CRACK!
"Father!" yelled the children.
"Now, then," Freeza said, as he turned his attention towards Sailor Moon. "Kindly hand over my balls."
"No," Sailor Moon said.
"'No'?"
"That's right, no."
"You know, I am not used to having people disagree with me without consequences. Dodoria?"
"With pleasure," Dodoria said, as she rises into the air to deal with Sailor Moon. "I show this 'skank' what it means to cross Lord Freeza-!"
"I don't think so," Sailor Moon said, as she used an invisible "force" to slam Dodoria into the ground, hard.
BAM!
"What?" Freeza said in surprise.
"See you around, Lord Freeza," Sailor Moon said. "Sailor Teleport!"
BAM!
And she, her companions and the surviving Namekian children disappear.
"Where did that witch go?" Dodoria yelled, as she looked about the area.
"Lord Freeza, this Sailor Moon might be a problem for us," Zarbon said.
"Noted," Freeza said. There was a look in Sailor Moon's eyes that gave him pause, not that he would let any of his minions know…
"For now, we go find the rest of the Dragonballs," Freeza said. "And then, we'll flush this Sailor Moon and her companions out in the open, so that I may kill them…myself."
