Foreword: Time for Namek! Let's see Bansuri react to the planet his race belongs to shall we...

Bulma sat in the pilot seat gazing at the passing planets and stars, marveling at the beauty of the universe as the fighters in the training room were having a free-for-all sparing session at 100x gravity. Bulma was still gobsmacked at how they're able to even stand in such conditions, let alone fight with Gohan and Krillin surprising her the most.

Bulma: 'Man, that kid might be half alien but being able to handle that sort of pressure is insane! And how the hell is Krillin able to do it!? He's human!"

Bulma would have continued her internal rant at how absurdly strong her fellow spacefarers are when a particular planet started to come into view, the ship's navigation system informing her that the planet they were approaching was the one they were after; Namek. She cheered with delight before realizing she should probably get the guys to the seats and strapped in. Bulma pushed a button on the console so her voice would be projected into the training room.

Bulma: "Alright guys, Playtime's over! We'll be landing in half and hour at most so get your butts back to your seats! NOW!"

She shouted the last word loud enough to hear herself through the training room door to jolt them into action, Bulma knew that Goku sometimes needed a startle to get him moving. She was proven right when the group of fighters came out of the training room and found their seats, strapping in and striking up a conversation.

Goku: "Wow! So that's Namek huh? How does it feel to see your home planet Bansuri?"

Bansuri: "I was born on Earth Goku, but looking at Namek...it does seem familiar somehow..."

Krillin: "Hope they're willing to part with their Dragon Balls to help us..."

Gohan: "I hope we don't have to deal with that Frieza person, I know we're stronger but..."

Bansuri: "A fair enough concern Gohan. Goku remember; we're here to revive our friends, not pick fights"

Goku: "Come oooon, why are you singling me out?"

Bulma, Gohan, Krillin and Bansuri all look at Goku with the same expression of 'really.' and Goku quickly nods and pouts at being called out. Everyone seeing that he got the message returned to what they were doing, watching the planet Namek get more defined as they drew closer.

Vegeta sat in his pod racing toward the planet Namek trying to figure out a wish that couldn't backfire on him horrifically.

Vegeta: 'Immortality is out of the question since there are things I don't want to live through [Vegeta rubs a scar on his arm in rememberance of that lesson], Invincibility?... No, that would probably mean I would still have to feel what's trying to damage me or have no sense of touch at all which could end poorly...Eternal youth might be worth considering but odds are that would turn me into a child. Eternal Physical Prime? That could work, covers age, sickness and damage while not forcing me to live through a fatal strike...but what about my mind? AAGH! Nothing is good enough...Unless'

Vegeta gained a very amused look.

Vegeta: 'What if I wished that Frieza never got what he wanted ever again? Not only will that make the freak suffer, but it would be a public service to ensure Frieza's goals never came true. Yeah...screw you Frieza!'

Vegeta's smile widened as a planet started coming into view, the pod's navigation telling him that he's approaching planet Namek. With the spiteful goal in mind, Vegeta waited for landing with a sense of glee and anticipation akin to waiting for his birthday presents.

Bulma activated the ship's landing protocols and kept her hands on the controls just in case she needed to land the ship manually, and after a bit of turbulence that scared Bulma and Krillin somewhat, the ship landed on the ground. Bulma and the fighters promptly got their things and hopped off the ship so Bulma could capsule it and move it somewhere more hidden from view, an idea that immediately proved worth doing as a group of powerful energies were felt by the group and making them all hide in a nearby cave.

Bansuri: "Okay, I'm guessing those are Frieza's forces given the armor and with the scouters, things can get more tricky given they can sense and communicate with them. We can't afford to get caught here..."

Goku: "Hey! That feel's like Vegeta!" [points to pod landing in the distance]

Bansuri considered their options and simply decided to stick to the plan.

Bansuri: "The priority is to find the Dragon Balls. Goku, you'll search with me, Krillin and Gohan will keep Bulma safe should anyone get nosey. Bulma, you need to be ready to start the ship and get us out of here in a hurry after we get the wish odds are that we'll have targets on us so we need to be quick and quiet. If a fight is unavoidable, end it as soon as possible or use the Solar Flare to blind them and get out of harm's way. Understood?"

Everyone nodded to show their understanding and after Bansuri retrieved the Dragon Ball Rader, Goku and Bansuri ran and jumped across the landscape toward the nearest signal which revealed 4 Dragon Balls together and when Goku and Bansuri got close enough they could see a group of Frieza's forces and who they suspect to be Frieza demanding a Dragon Ball from an older looking Namekian.

Goku: "How are we gonna get those Dragon Balls now?"

Bansuri looked at the situation then gained a smirk, seeing the Namekians take out the scouters and giving Bansuri and idea. He stepped back away from the edge of a rockface they were looking over and made a Multiform clone before using magic to give it clothing similar to the local Namekians. The clone smirked before diving into the water and swimming toward the confrontation.

Goku: "...So we're fighting?"

Bansuri: [Smirk] "Just watch"

The clone broke the surface of the water loudly and hopped onto the land behind the invaders of Namek, getting all the attention of both the Frieza Force and the locals.

Clone: "Phew! Nothin' like a good swim! Oh howdy folks! You lot don't look like yer' from 'round here [exaggerated look at the Dragon Balls] ooooh! Yer doin' a journey huh? Good religious experiance I tell ya what!"

As everyone stared at this apparently friendly hick local, Bansuri telepathically communicated to the locals.

Bansuri: 'When the clone claps it's hands, you need to turn away from them to avoid being blinded. After the light passes, my clone will throw the Dragon Balls to 4 of your lot then jump back into the water and I recommend you lot make your escape as well. Got it?'

The group of Namekians give subtle nods and prepare to move.

Clone: "Gotta hand it to ya, gettin' that many balls takes a while! Well done!"

The clone claps their hands, prompting the locals to turn away which when the clone sees this happen transitions from clapping to using the Solar Flare, blinding Frieza and his men allowing the clone to get by the balls. When the light faded the local Namekians turned back around and got ready to catch the Dragon Balls which the clone obliged, chucking each ball to a different Namekian before doing a very loud jump into the water, signaling the locals to run and hide.

Goku and Bansuri watched from their spot on a rockface, Bansuri giving Goku a smug side-eye and looking back to see the Frieza Forces being screamed at to search the rivers for the thieving upstart that took his wish orbs and watching them hover over the rivers and scatter with the tyrant and his 2 apparent attendants fly away to their ship (as Bansuri overheard them).

Bansuri: "Almost like fighting isn't the only solution to a problem"

Goku gives a pout at being made fun of as Bansuri's clone came out of the water behind them and reunited with the original Bansuri. Moment's later however, a telepathic communication I opened by the elder of the village just saved.

Elder Namekian: 'Thank you for your assistance stranger. Please, let us speak in person'

Bansuri: "If that's what you wish esteemed elder. Goku! We're meeting the people we just helped, be polite"

Goku: "But I'm always polite..."

Bansuri paused, if this was Goku being polite...

Bansuri: "...be more polite then"

Meanwhile around the same time on a different part of Namek, Vegeta had sensed that Cui had followed him and decided to deal with this issue before it made itself worse. He watched Cui's pod land and debated on whether or not to humiliate his so-called rival and while the idea was tempting, he'd rather not reveal his hand too much. He'll just kill him fast so there's no chance of his scouter being picked up on the common scouter frequency.

Cui: "Well, well, well, looks like the monkey wanted to welcome me to Namek. How kind of you, friend"

Vegeta: "Not really, I'm here for a funeral"

Cui: "Oh really? And who's funeral is that?"

Vegeta: "Yours"

Vegeta immediately powered up to maximum power, terrifying Cui but before he could beg the now stronger Saiyan to spare his life or trick him, Cui found himself booted skyward with his battle suit's armor shattered. Cui saw something glimmer toward him and vanish on his chest before he felt an unbearable heat and exploded.

Vegeta: "Hmph! What dirty fireworks"

Vegeta basked in the feeling of victory before a cold dread put a shiver down his spine, this was the planet of people like the one that matched Nappa and the person that left him scarred and tailless. He couldn't afford to make enemies of the locals so he'll simply not kill them and be honest about his wish to make Frieza suffer. Given how Frieza was, Vegeta could guess that the tyrant had Namekian blood on his hands and all Vegeta had to do was act like there wasn't any on his.

Vegeta: "...Let's play nice I guess..."

Vegeta picked a direction and started flying, being mindful to hide his power and stay low and hidden. If he got even one Dragon Ball he could make sure Frieza won't get what he wants, the thought putting an amused look on his face.

Vegeta: "This is going to be hilarious"

Who is going to get all the Dragon Balls? What is the elder Namekian going to do to reward our heroes? Will Vegeta torment Frieza? Find out on the next chapter of Some Help.
