Reviews:
NastySquire: I checked it out briefly. To me it seems very... Basic in terms of trying to write. I don't know if it would have all the tools I need to make this story great. But I will do more research on Webnovel. Maybe I can check to see if there's an app for it and i'll look at the set up. Thanks for your review. Hope you enjoy this chapter!
theelderman5: looked at your profile it's pretty bad and trash waste of time hope your happy with yourself
Age: December 11, 762
Location: Namek
Bonyu had been flying for many hours and had had enough. Her scouter was searching on the maximum wide scan, but the Saiyans had slipped away again. She couldn't tell exactly what time it was, but her patience in looking for Vegeta was at an end.
"Damn bloody bastard somehow keeps getting away! Damn him! Damn you VEGETA!" She hurled a blue blast into the waters below, a geyser of water shooting out far behind her as she zoomed past. She decided to call off the search for the moment. She knew eventually Vegeta would show his face, and when he did, she wouldn't give him the chance to run again. She had a better idea anyway. She stopped in midair, looking around quickly, before hitting a couple of buttons on her scouter, and making a couple of adjustments. She had her Scouters rated to 1,000,000 at all times.
"Ahh! There you are! You and I need to talk, Lord Frieza..."
Frieza sat in his throne chair, swirling his wine in his glass. Aboard his ship, he looked out of the big window that overlooked much of the main bridge.
"Appule."
"Yes, Lord Frieza?"
"Has there been any kind of report from Zarbon? I suspect Dodoria is dead, so expect nothing from that insolent blimp!"
"There's not been a word my lord. Shall I go out and search sir?" Appule trembled underneath the floating chair of his emperor, who continued to look out the window, the 2 dragon balls sitting on the ground beneath him.
"Hmmm. With Dodoria and likely Zarbon dead, it would seem I have to call in a...favor. Get me in contact with Captain Ginyu immediately!"
"At once my Lord! Minion get the Captain on the line! On the double!"
"Yes sir!" Berry was at his terminal, the call going through within 3 seconds.
Zzt
"...Lord Frieza? What do I owe the pleasure, Sir?"
"My dear Ginyu, I am afraid I require your assistance on a matter of utmost importance. I am also in need of Scouters as soon as possible. Whatever mission you have planned, abandon at once!"
Zzt
Zzt
"Hmph, that's odd my Lord...Bonyu herself called me only a couple of days ago to ask for assistance on some stupid planet called Namek. We were gonna be there in a couple of short days Lord Frieza."
That made Frieza stop stirring his wine, his eyes widening at the information. Bonyu herself had always been made available at Frieza's service when requested. Her service when she was called in at times by him was reported as legendary and upheld with pride amongst her peers. He did not call upon her often unless the situation was all but lost. He could only ever think of 3 separate occasions he personally requested her. She had more than delivered. The rumors of her power reaching heights greater than Captain Ginyu had circled through the Planet Trade in recent years, and since the unfortunately timed demise of Guldo, Frieza had been internally debating on giving the woman her own force.
"B-Bonyu is here? On Namek? Why the hell wasn't I informed of this matter?" Frieza asked, more to his crew.
"S-s-sir! We we-were unaware of her location my Lord! Shall we get in contact with her sir?" Orange, another low serviceman asked. Frieza looked at him sinisterly.
Zzt
..."My Lord, we were under the impression that she had already made contact with you. I can send her a message this instant at your command."
Frieza continued to stare down Orange, who if one looked, pants were slowly beginning to seep.
"Your name, minion?"
"O-o-orange my Lord! Private Orange at your service sir!" Orange bowed, praying that a death beam wouldn't be the end of him.
"Hmm, yes, Orange. You are to go and find Zarbon for me, dead or alive, I wish to be informed of his whereabouts."
"But sir I-"
Frieza pointed his finger at the man standing next to Orange, where the man, formally known as Grape, fell on the spot, a smoking hole in his body where his heart had been.
"I don't much care if you were going to say you're more qualified. I asked Orange, not you. You two! Remove this filth from my presence. And Orange?"
"Y-yes my Lord?"
"Do complete your mission, I would hate to have to...punish you because of sheer incompetence." Orange didn't answer, bowing and quickly leaving the tyrant's presence.
"Proceed with your arrival Captain."
Zzt ..." of course Lord Frieza. If that will be all?"
"I want to personally apologize for Guldo's demise, Captain. He was a loyal member of our force and will not soon be forgotten."
Zzt
Zzt..." th...thank you, my Lord. We will contact you once we arrive, sir, Captain Ginyu out."
Frieza heard the communication click over, signaling the end of the call. He swirled his wine glass and took a sip.
"Hmph, was this aged 32 or 42 years? Hmmm..."
"S-s-sir!" Frieza heard the familiar voice, turning around and about to blast Orange when behind the private was the woman he had been waiting to see.
"I was beginning my search for Zarbon, and Captain Bonyu arrived immediately. I will be going now."
"No, you will stay. With Vegeta on the loose, it is a much wiser precaution for you to remain near our Lord." Bonyu interjected.
"Hmmm. Captain Bonyu, a pleasure to see you."
"A pleasure as always, Lord Frieza."
"You may stay, Orange. I have been kept out of the loop for far too long. I ordered Cui to look after Vegeta and bring him here alive so that I may..question him. Where do you fit into all of this, dear Bonyu?"
"Cui was a poor choice, sir. Vegeta outclassed him and had no respect for his authority. Nappa as well."
"The big monkey is alive? Hm-hm hm hm hm Vegeta can't live without his precious...guardian, I suppose. What other news do you bring?"
"I believe Dodoria has been killed, evident of both of his arms having been removed from his body. If he is even alive, which I highly doubt, sir, then he is in a state of extreme peril. I have no whereabouts as far as Zarbon goes. I have been running Zeta patterns and Beta searches for nearly a day on this planet and have found no trace of Vegeta. I can only assume that he, and maybe Nappa as well, have learned to sense powers without a scouter and are capable of suppressing their energy. These Scouters are useless in finding them, my Lord." Frieza took all this information in, thinking as calmly and as rationally as he could.
"I don't know why, but I have been getting this feeling... As if my authority may be in possible peril. If that damn monkey is on this planet right now, then he could very well try to ruin my plans. You see these here below me, Captain?" Bonyu observed the pair of orange orbs on the ground with a casual glance, not caring one way or another about them.
"I've heard stories in the cosmos about orbs of that color that could perhaps grant a wish, my Lord. If I were to hazard a guess, out of 3, I would say you are either going to wish to be taller, the most extravagant wine in the galaxy, or immortality." Frieza felt mentally slapped.
"Hm hm hm hm hm oh you're good. Hm hm hm hm tell me, did my father let you in on the information about my height, or were you just making an assumption?"
"An assumption my Lord, nothing more."
Frieza shot a death beam past Bonyu, who didn't so much as flinch. She heard it connect, a short shouting scream and no more. There was a deathly silence in the air before the beginnings of another snicker began.
"IF ANY ONE OF YOU MAGGOTS SO MUCH AS TELLS A SOUL THAT I MAY WISH TO BE TALLER, YOU WILL BE DESTROYED IMMEDIATELY!" Frieza yelled out, his voice shaking the very foundation of the ship. Bonyu was not intimidated, but she was ready to leave.
"Let it be nothing more. As it stands, I am unfortunately in need of urgent assistance."
"And the matter with Vegeta and Nappa my Lord?"
"Hm hm hm hm hm..hahahahahahaha they are of no threat to me. But I do know Vegeta has...intimate knowledge of my desires. If he is aware of my aim with the dragon balls, then he has likely already retrieved one. I need 7!!" The rest of the crew were stunned at their emperor's cursing. Many had heard of the...volatile relationship between the tyrant and the Prince of all Saiyans. It often ended with Vegeta in a medical machine, bruised and beaten for his defiance. For Frieza to be mad enough to genuinely curse was a rare thing.
"I can gather them quickly my Lord if that is your order?"
"Hmmm, no. I will wait for the Ginyu Force, which by the way, I am rather pleased that you made the call before I did. Had I known the situation would be this difficult I would have called them immediately. I am expecting Captain Ginyu to provide me with a scouter. Mine was unfortunately destroyed by one of the slugs on this pitiful planet earlier. And then, those damn aliens. Did they dare to attack me? ME? Their insolence will not be tolerated!" Frieza clenched his fists, his power dangerously trying to uncoil. Bonyu's scouter began to beep and rise. She hid her shock. 'I had always known Lord Frieza to be powerful, but this is rather surprising!'
"Aliens, my Lord?"
"Hmph? Yes. Yes, some lowly species dared to not only attack me but take one of my dragon balls! It's infuriating!"
Bonyu could see Frieza's predicament. "While you're waiting for the Captain and his goon squad, what will you have me do my Lord?"...
"This is perfect! Marvelous Nappa hm hm hm hm hm Bonyu and Frieza are both in his ship!"
Vegeta, Nappa, and the lightly concerned Orn had flown slowly, very high in the air, having caught Bonyu's trail. Vegeta had come up with a cruel, cruel plan to throw Frieza off. He knew Frieza was likely imbibed on his precious wine and was also throwing a temper tantrum.
"Hmph, guess the stupid bitch never found Zarbon hm hm hm hm hm."
"This is an insane plan, Master Vegeta."
"Master? I never agreed to take you on as any kind of student. Besides, you have your codes and honor, which I do not share." Vegeta continued to look down upon the ship. All 3 warriors each had their Ki suppressed to the bare minimum, high above the tyrant's ship. In one of Vegeta's hands, the top half of Zarbon's head, covered with rags on hand from the small village.
"So, you both are aware of your roles?"
"Bomb the ship," Nappa said.
"Destroy the legs," Orn replied.
"Excellent. Frieza will think his precious ship is being destroyed. And then when I execute the ultimate disrespect, he will know I'm coming for him hm hm hm hm." Nappa and Orn both looked at each other, wondering if the Prince had gone mad. But if the plan worked the way it was supposed to, Frieza would be completely thrown off his heels!
"Alright, as soon as it's done, we scatter and meet back up via energy spiking a little later. 3 times if you're in trouble. Twice if you're seeking one or the other out. This is a simple fuck you to Frieza, Bonyu, and anyone else on that blasted ship. There's no way this will kill Frieza, or likely even Bonyu, but it will rattle Frieza surely. I know him well enough. Let's get into position." The 3 warriors slowly made their way in a triangle high around the ship. Nappa held 2 fingers down, ready to charge an immense amount of energy at the Prince's command. Not enough to completely wreck the ship, but just enough to say hello, and fuck you. Nappa snickered at the very thought.
Vegeta looked at the head, using a minimal amount of energy, he created a finger beam and carved it into Zarbon's slowly rotting forehead. He knew how the Scouters worked. They were out of the linear range of them directly, and if Bonyu had turned off her maximum scans already from having given up for now, then she wouldn't be ready for this. The last thing he did, making sure his energy mixed in with all the blood he and Nappa gathered from Zarbon's corpse before chucking it into the ocean, was look over at Orn in the vast distance, who he knew could hear him.
"Alright, namekian. If you pull this off, you just may earn a modicum of my respect. In 3...2..."
Orn heard, readying to destroy some of the legs. He was told that not all of them needed to be destroyed, but he was ready to prove himself, gathering orange energy in his palms.
1..."
"While you're waiting for the Captain and his goon squad, what will you have me do my Lord?"
Frieza thought on the matter for a moment, before Bonyu's scouter beeped.
"Hmm? What's this?" Bonyu clicked a few buttons, one of her eyebrows raising.
"That's odd. It seems-"
BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM
"WHAT THE-?"
BAAAAAAAAAANG
The ship had tilted to one side, nearly sending Bonyu sliding across the ship. Frieza remained in his hover chair, before a massive collision from underneath sent the ship into the air nearly 50 feet, making it crash back down incredibly hard. Bonyu and many of the other attendants and soldiers all hit their heads on the roof, many of the weaker ones dying from the sudden force of their necks snapping from the impact.
"WHO DARES TO ATTACK MY SHIP?" Frieza yelled, absolutely enraged.
"I-I'M ON IT, MY LORD!" Bonyu yelled, recovering quickly but before having a chance to fly through the emergency hatch, they both heard a nasty-sounding splotch on the massive window above. Looking up, Bonyu and Frieza gasped.
"Z-Z-Zar?"
"Bloody hell!" Bonyu said aloud.
"Wh-wh-who dares to defy my rule? AGHHHHHH!" Frieza screamed, barely able to contain himself. Bonyu flew up closer, seeing the top half of Zarbon's head, in what looked like a different form than she could remember seeing. The bottom of the head looked jagged. This was most certainly not a clean-cut, but then she looked at the forehead, seeing the symbol.
"M-my Lord, this...this symbol..isn't it that bloody Saiyan King Vegeta's?" Bonyu asked. She was sure she saw it before.
Frieza's face began to scrunch up, immediately knowing who did this. But he could say no more.
Bonyu continued to observe the head before she noticed something...off. The head seemed to be...melting!
"What is-?" She was interrupted by the head suddenly emitting a bright, purple glow. The eyes had suddenly started shining, as did the mouth!
"Are you bloody fucking-?" BOOOOOOM
The head exploded, sending a mass of glass, blood, and brain matter all over Bonyu and Frieza, who was behind Bonyu. Bonyu screamed in pain as the massive window shattered and fell in many places, some of it cutting down some of the still-recovering lesser soldiers. Frieza was relatively unharmed by the glass, his skin more than hard enough to handle it, but his wine glass had been destroyed.
"AHHHHGHHHGHGH I'M GONNA BLOODY FUCKING KILL THAT MONKEY! WAGHHHHHAAAHHH!" Bonyu screamed in a livid rage, her right eye was cut, and not prepared to defend herself, a lot of glass had gotten into her face and arms. There was dark blue blood all over both of them.
"Ve-Ve-Ve...VEGETAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" Frieza screamed, his power sending some of the few lesser soldiers left into the walls, killing even more of them on impact. Bonyu was pushed back several feet, still holding her face in pained rage. She couldn't believe she had fallen into that trap! She should've known the head would explode. She should've known, and now, she had to own up to it, until she could get into a medical machine, but first...
"I-I want Vegeta dead my Lord! DEAD! LET ME PLEASE END IT!"
"NO! I. Want. Him. To. My. Self." Frieza could barely speak! In just a few brief moments, his entire trip was completely ruined! He would skin Vegeta alive, to the very raw nerves when he got ahold of him!
"Uggghhhh, that bastard monkey has glass in my hair. I'm smashing him now!" Bonyu said, flying out the window before Frieza could call her back. Frieza just sat back in his chair, content to allow Bonyu to have her revenge, even if he wanted the Prince all to himself...
The 3 warriors had met up nearly an hour later. They had each felt Bonyu take off from the ship, blue blood all over her, glass covering her entire uniform.
"That worked beautifully Vegeta!" Nappa said, clapping his smirking Prince on the shoulder. Vegeta looked at Orn, taking a slight interest in him.
"Well well well. When a plan comes together and works as well as it did, it is usually because it starts well. Excellent work...Orn." Orn's eyes had nearly rolled up to his forehead at hearing his name, before he quickly held himself strong, almost in a preening fashion.
"It was no big deal," Orn said, stoically.
"Come now, let us get back to the others. Our next stop is the next dragon ball!"...
Present
2 days later
Her scouter had not been destroyed by the attack on the ship. She had searched far and wide, fast, high and low, but it wasn't only until a few minutes ago that her scouter picked up some extreme activity, and she bolted towards that direction...
Tien and Vegeta were thoroughly exhausted, both having spent the near full share of their energy. Tien had reverted to a basic level of Kaioken. His shoulder was cut, rather deep, from one of Vegeta's attempted ki blade slicing attacks. Vegeta had burn marks all over his face, especially one just under his left eye which stung from a Dodon Ray that caught him earlier. They were ready for another round, but Tien's third eye alerted him to a very high power coming in fast. They were out of time!
"N-no! Not her! Not now! Blast it all!" Vegeta coughed out.
"VEGETAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" Bonyu landed with a booming crater, her face boiling red, glass all over her, with blue blood on her armor and her face. There was a gash on her right eye, but she completely ignored the pain, her fury evident. Tien afterimaged quickly next to his enemy. As much as he didn't want to be by the Prince of all Saiyans, it sure beats being next to this hellfire of a woman!
"S-she sure is pissed at you! Did you want some private time with your girlfriend?" Bonyu's anger immediately dissipated, replaced with utter confusion. Vegeta looked at the three-eyed warrior with horror.
"Y-y-you...YOU THINK THAT FAT FUCKING HOG IS MY GIRLFRIEND YOU BASTARD? HER CHIN IS BIGGER THAN I AM!" Vegeta grabbed Tien by his shoulder and brought him down to face level. Tien took the spittle in his face, clearly annoyed at being grabbed by his pained shoulder.
"Girlfriend? Ohhhhh hahahahaha that's cute. What would make you possibly-" she stopped mid-sentence in getting a clear look at the three-eyed warrior.
"A-a Triclops? Bloody hell is this? King Cold destroyed your race more than 60 years ago if reports are to be confirmed."
"Triclops? Him? Hahahahahahahahaha!" Vegeta's pain briefly subsided at hearing this, laughing until he was bent over his knee. Tien was stoic, eyeing the woman down with curiosity, and slight anger.
"Triclops? You have me confused lady. I'm human."
"Hm hm hm hm no-no. I'm afraid not. The three eyes give it away mostly, but I do believe you have other unique...attributes. For one, you have a technique that allows you to grow an extra set of arms, correct?" Tien's eyes flew to the top of his forehead.
"H-how could you-?"
"And then the splitting apart into multiple entities? Well, some species I've heard can do that, but the Triclops? They were reportedly the best. It was often said they were a pacifist species that combated much with their own and rejected King Cold's desire for...what was the word...oh. Enlightenment. So, Triclops, what will you do with this information now?" Bonyu asked, looking at Vegeta who stopped laughing.
"See? You have just as much reason to hate the Planet Trade as I do, freak!" Vegeta pointed out.
"Yeah, but they didn't kill my best friend. She's here for you. So why should I bother?"
"Oh and just where the hell do you think you're going, mate? You've angered Frieza, and me, and there's just no walking away from that for you darling." Bonyu stated.
Tien sighed before he felt his friends flying in. Piccolo landed, along with Nappa and Orn.
"Just don't know when to leave things alone do ya bitch?" Nappa called out.
"Guys, what do we do about this? She's stronger than all of us!" Orn pointed out.
"So was Vegeta. We'll handle her."
"Oye! A little unfair wouldn't ya say? I'm just here for Vegeta. Let me have the little bugger and I'll be on me way!" Bonyu replied, holding her hands out as if trying to wave the others away.
"I heard what you said. Frieza has a bone to pick with Tien? Then he has a bone to pick with all of us." Piccolo said, stepping up and walking past Vegeta and Tien.
"And me!" Gohan flew in, at the behest of Piccolo.
"Boy, I told you to stay up there with the other kids."
"But Mister Piccolo she wants to hurt Tien!"
"Listen to the little bugger eh! Say, are you a Saiyan?" Bonyu's eyes perked up at that.
"Ok blimp that's enough." Vegeta stepped in front of Gohan.
"You're gonna stop calling me that dear Prince. After I've beaten you bloody unconscious, I'll be taking you and that boy along with me, considering Frieza has a high price on all Saiyan heads."
"You're cold! He's just a child!" Orn yelled out.
"A kid that can destroy planets! Frieza will always recruit for that kind of power." Bonyu laughed at the thought.
"Leave the brat alone Bonyu. It's me you want."
"Vegetaaagh? Whaddya doin?" Nappa called out in concern.
"Not to worry Nappa." Vegeta took a couple of steps over next to Piccolo.
"Tell me, namekian, do you have any way out of this?"
Piccolo growled, looking down at Vegeta.
"Name is Piccolo. Get used to it, or I start breaking your teeth, Saiyan. And as far as getting out of this, I'm all for leaving your ass for her to play with."
"Hmph." Vegeta crossed his arms, staring down at Bonyu, who began slowly making her way toward the group.
"I'm calling a temporary truce. After the blimp is dealt with, we can get back to killing each other for old times' sake." Vegeta suggested.
Gohan, all of a sudden unsheathed his sword, slicing out toward the woman, who took a step back in shock as a line of dirt nearly exploded in front of her.
"Not another step, mean lady!" Gohan pointed the yellow Ki-colored sword at the now cautious woman.
"Well I'll be, that brat sure has good energy. Sure I can't take him back to Lord Frieza? He'll make a wonderful soldier in the Force."
"My daddy always said to treat girls nicely, but you're evil!"
"Listen here you stupid bitch! The boy is not a soldier, he's a warrior and a scholar. And you'll have to kill us all if you expect to have him." Piccolo threw out the gauntlet. Piccolo, Tien, and a reluctant Vegeta all stood strong. Bonyu grinned with feral excitement. An actual fight! Not a slaughter like she was so used to. She tapped the buttons on her scouter and was somewhat surprised by what she saw.
"Hmmm, Vegeta you sure have improved. 38,000. The slug is at 55,000 And the boy? Wow, 51,000, good on you chum. As for the others? Let's see..."
Tien, who barely moved a muscle, noticed Vegeta's reluctance. They had both spent an unreal amount of energy in their battle, and he knew Vegeta was stronger than that number. He silently made his way to the Prince, standing next to him.
"Look, I hate your guts. I wish I could turn you over and stab you through and through for what you did. But it seems we have bigger matters to attend to. The only reason why I'm doing this is that we need to be at our best, and, selfishly, I still want to have my chance to kill you myself."
"What are you getting at freak?" Vegeta scoffed, clearly paying more attention to the horrid woman than the Triclops he was fighting before. He noticed out of the corner of his eyes that Tien had ingested something. Before he could process, his senses glared in his mind. 'H-his energy! It's like h-he hasn't fought at all! What is this insanity?'
"If you wanna live the next few minutes, you'll take it," Tien said, reluctantly holding out a green legume. Vegeta considered slapping it away. His pride would not allow for food at a time like this! Unless...
"Ahh, 38,500. Quite strong for your race!" Bonyu excitedly said to Tien, before she focused on Vegeta. "Now, you can see your outclassed Vegeta. I've had a couple of days to really blow off some steam, despite the possibility of permanently damaging my eye. This is gonna hurt regardless, it is now up to you how much!" Bonyu said, all hints of cheeriness gone.
"Damn it all! Give me the fucking bean!" Vegeta demanded, snatching it out of Tien's open hand. He smelled it quickly, noting the blandness of it, and put it in his mouth and chewed down and swallowed. The next few seconds changed Vegeta, forever. His body felt a feeling he couldn't describe. His stomach hurt, in a way that wasn't all that bad. His body felt like it had never felt before! His eyes widened as he felt his energy.
"Wh-w-What is... what is going on with me? WHAT WAS THAT STUPID THING?" Vegeta yelled.
"That was a senzu bean."
"Universal miracle drug.." Tien watched as Vegeta flexed his fist, then looked down at him.
"I'll say...I feel...as if...my stomach..." Vegeta looked down in confusion. His stomach didn't pain him like it normally did. He couldn't describe what it could be!
"Hm hm hm hm hm for being a dirty, royal, prince, you would think you would know what it's like to be full." Piccolo reveled in the Prince's confused state.
"Full? But..."
"It restores your energy and relieves you of your hunger. Temporarily of course. Maybe a full day for a Saiyan. I've seen Shepard last about that long without eating before he took one of those one day back when I trained him."
"Y-you trained that clown?" Vegeta asked, stunned.
Tien only nodded. Meanwhile, Bonyu looked at the group in shock. 'Vegeta's power level just jumped to 90,000. Interesting indeed.'
"Hm...hm...hm hm hm hm hm...hahahahahahahahahaha!"
The woman laughed, and nobody knew whether to be fearful or concerned.
"Hahahaha hahahaha stu..stu-hahahahaha stupid bloody monkey! Did you think Lord Frieza would give you bottomless pits the same order rations he would the other high-ranking soldiers? You truly are pitiful. He makes sure your lot personally gets the Recruit rations hm hm hm hm hm hm!"
"Recruit? That piece of-!"
"It's alright Nappa." Vegeta took a deep breath, closing his eyes. He was livid, yes, but now a lifelong question had been answered, and with deep satisfaction, he let the hate of the problem go. Anger was still there, but now he could truly focus. He now remembered this feeling of fullness. Not since he was a small child, and had eaten a package delivered to him by the mysterious Saiyan. This was that feeling! He felt invigorated, enlightened, and ready.
"Orn, Nappa, leave me."
"Go, Gohan. You need to stay fresh."
"But Mister-" Piccolo looked at the boy coldly, shutting him up instantly.
"Please, be careful!" Gohan flew up in the air, heading back towards the high-top pillar.
"Oye! Get your ass back here monkey!" Bonyu went to shoot a blast upwards at the child, but her hand was slightly pulled down by Piccolo.
"What did I tell you, witch!" Piccolo picked up the heavyset woman, chucking her towards a series of boulders, but Bonyu gained her footing quickly, leaping back and landing on her feet far from the desired target.
"Any insight on this woman, Saiyan?" Piccolo asked Vegeta quickly.
"It sure would help! HaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAA! KAIOKEN TIMES 2!" Tien said, watching the devilish woman closely.
"Hmph. The stories I've heard don't make up for what we are about to go through." Vegeta said, his defensive stance as ready as could be.
"This could've been quite easy for you Vegeta. Fortunately for me, I like to get me hands dirty! BLAST SHOWER!" Bonyu yelled, sending arcing, electrical energy beams at the 3.
"DODGE!" Vegeta yelled quickly. All 3 managed to get away, but Bonyu was quick, phasing behind the Prince and kicking him hard in the back, sending him tumbling into the ground for many yards. The woman turned quickly, both the Namekian and Triclops attacking fiercely. They fought through the air, Bonyu catching Piccolo with a punch to the jaw, nearly making him pass out as he slammed into the ground hard.
"GALICK GUN FIRE!" Vegeta, having recovered, yelled from a distance, but Bonyu weaved around it mid-battle with Tien, making her way toward the Prince. But Tien was steadfast in her way, holding her off.
"BE GONE TRICLOPS!" Her fist, coated in purple, nearly killed Tien. Thankful his 3rd eye saw the energy buildup, he trusted it over his instincts!
"Whoa! She's very good!"
"No shit! FUUUUCK YOU!" Vegeta yelled, darting past Tien and engaging the woman, who was casually backing away and flicking many of Vegeta's punches and kicks to the side, before she decided to take offense, twisting around one of Vegeta's punches and blasting him back with a massive Kiai in his chest, causing blood to shoot up as he was sent wildly flying away. The sound of the impact was music to Bonyu's ears before a pair of arms from below grabbed her by the legs.
"What's this-AGGHHH!" Bonyu yelled as Piccolo pulled her to the ground, making her crater it when she landed. She got up, fuming as she charged the namekian, an alert to her scouter however made her back away, as Tien had afterimaged in next to Piccolo and they both attacked again, making her back away with a snarl.
Vegeta picked himself up off the ground. Coughing, he noticed his blood hitting the ground. In anger, he looked up at where the fight was happening.
"Y-you, fat, overeating blob of SHIT!" Vegeta blasted off of the ground, making his way past the dodging Piccolo and Tien and slamming into Bonyu's body first, sending them both backward. He pulled the woman's hair, sneering as he did.
"Ooooh, Vegeta I didn't know you played so haaard!" Bonyu said seductively. Before she could react, however, Vegeta lit his hand in his energy, burning her hair. She screamed in an uproar, driving her fist into Vegeta's face and likely breaking his jaw as he was tumbling away uncontrollably.
"M-Me HAIR!" Bonyu growled before both Piccolo and Tien surrounded her from either side. They attacked as she pushed backward with her energy. She didn't have time for this!
She hit Tien with a backhand before dodging one of Piccolo's kicks, grabbing him by the leg and racing down towards the ground. She saw a handy boulder in the way, however, and slammed Piccolo through it. The ground underneath Piccolo caved, sending him and the rocks tumbling another hundred feet.
"YOU!"
"Huh?"
"Try this one for size!" Tien said, charging the woman straight up. Bonyu giggled a bit, admiring the Triclops' courage. Putting all her weight behind a punch, she charged it with purple energy, looking to end this in one blow.
"GOODBYE TRI-WHA?" She had thrown an energy-laced punch, but Tien afterimaged at the last moment, leaving a shadow of himself behind.
"You missed!" She quickly turned around but she had no chance as Tien threw his hands in front of his face.
"SOLAR FLARE!"
"AGGGGRRRHHH! BLASTED TRICLOPS!" Bonyu was blinded heavily. She remember that Vegeta had used the same technique, but this was so much more intense!
In front of one of Namek's suns, Tien smiled, before quickly lifting his finger. "DODON RAY!" The sound of metal and glass breaking told Bonyu that the Triclops must've destroyed her scouter. He was a damn good shot, shooting it in between her fingers as the glass had now cut her hand and other eye. She yelled in fierce, hellish pain. Growling, she struggled to see, before she was walloped in the back of her head, sending her tumbling forward. Staying on her feet, she quickly fired a blast at the threat but was then hit in the stomach hard, making her spit up gristle as she held it in slight pain.
Vegeta turned hard, torquing an upwards crescent kick into the face of the woman, blasting her backward, where she collided with a rock formation, sending it tumbling down on top of her.
Everything stood still for a moment before Tien joined Vegeta, and they could hear a massive rock being thrown to the side, where Piccolo shook his head, recovering from the slam. Getting up, he flew lowly over to Tien and Vegeta, assuming a united front.
"I don't think that did enough."
"Of course not! The bitch has been through war-torn planets, leaving swathes of blood everywhere she goes!" Vegeta explained.
"Hmph, screw this." Piccolo flew forward, just as Bonyu was getting up. She barely had time to process when the namekian punched her in the jaw, making her flip once. Landing on her feet, she growled, before holding a hand out.
"I warned you! BLAST BALL!" 4 blue balls of energy shot out in various areas. Piccolo looked on before battle instincts made him just barely dodge to the side, a blue laser-like energy beam firing from the autonomous balls of energy.
"These things are dangerous!" More lasers fired out of the other Blast Balls, making Tien and Vegeta both scatter. Vegeta was distracted by dodging the laser beams that he didn't feel the purple disc until it was too late. It surrounded him, and before he knew it, enclosed and tightened like a vice. Vegeta gasped at the pressure being put onto his body as the disc started to close around him. His arms were trapped!
"D-d-damn...it...arrrgggggAHHHHHH!" The pain started to set in, before Tien quickly approached, a finger in a gold, ethereal glow, swiping down on Vegeta's disc, slicing through it and making it dissipate into particles.
"BLASTED BUGGA!" Bonyu flew in quickly, afterimaging behind Tien and kicking him down into the ground, before quickly turning and blasting the wide-mouthed Vegeta, sending the blast towards the ground. She didn't look at the explosion, going after Piccolo. She punched at him, making him throw up his forearm to block. She smirked, turning her hand purple and making Piccolo's arm begin to crisp.
"AGHHHHH! DAMN IT!" He quickly backed away, but Bonyu was relentless. Piccolo could barely dodge the attacks from the Ki-laced punch, knowing if one of them connected, he was likely as good as dead.
"JUST STAND STILL!" Bonyu afterimaged behind the namekian, hammering down on Piccolo's shoulder, dislocating it, and sending him skidding along the ground.
"W-we can't win like this. Not against her." Tien said, slowly on his feet, recovering. Piccolo slowly stood up, yelling as he slammed his shoulder into a boulder, knocking it back into place. Bonyu herself dropped to the ground near the still laid-out Vegeta, whose armor had been destroyed. Grabbing him by the neck, she hoisted him up.
"Are you done with your bloody resistance monkey?" She punched Vegeta, hard enough in the face to shatter his nose and break his jaw. She threw him like a rag doll, making him tumble out of control on the ground before she jumped up, using all of her weight to smash into Vegeta's back, shattering his spine.
"AGHHHHHHHHHH!" Vegeta screamed in sheer agony, his broken back feeling as if it was cut in two.
"Damn that bitch!" Tien activated his Kaioken, charging towards the woman, but she dodged backward at the last second, before kicking upwards into Tien's stomach, making the Triclops puke blood as he was sent skywards.
"SPECIAL BEAM CANNON!" Piccolo quickly fired his attack with almost no charge, and Bonyu backhanded it away. Stepping off of the nearly broken prince, Bonyu casually walked towards the namekian.
"Is that all, namekian garbage? And here I thought you three would make it a worthy challenge, but as I stand, you wouldn't do much as dent the Ginyu Force. What do you have to say for yourself?" Bonyu phased in fast, grabbing the namekian by the throat and squeezing, making Piccolo gasp for air. Bonyu could see Piccolo's mouth moving, but nothing coming out.
"I'm sorry I seem to be squeezing a bit too hard, afraid I don't know me own strength sometimes. What was that?" Bonyu loosened the grip ever so slightly, relief filling the namekian's face before a smirk enveloped him.
"D-Dodge!"
She never had a chance, before a boot implanted in her face, causing pain and sending her flying away, slamming into a boulder a small distance away and making the entire thing fall.
The man stepped up, stronger than he had ever been.
"I'm glad I made it guys..."
Krillin had arrived at their hideout 5 minutes ago. Helping Bulma to pack everything in her capsule house, she capsulized it quickly, before she, Yamcha, and Krillin made it back out.
"Holy crap Krillin! Dude, you're like several times stronger than you were before." Yamcha was stymied. He was the strongest out of all of them before they left for Grand Elder Guru.
"Yeah, it was amazing! He did the same for Gohan! The kid is just pouring out energy right now! But we don't have time, this crazy woman is after Vegeta and-"
"Wait wait wait. You want me to help save Vegeta's ass? Whyyyyy?"
"The chick is goin after Tien too."
"Damn.. alright, I guess we need to haul some serious ass. Krillin, take Bulma, I'm gonna need my full power and speed to keep up with you probably."
"Now hold on a minute, why can't you carry me AGGHHHHH!"
"No time Bulma we gotta go now!" Krillin hoisted the woman bridal style before lifting off with his energy.
"KAIOKEN TIMES 6!"
"KAIOKEN TIMES 2!"
"WAAAAAAAAGGGGHHHHHH GUUUUUUUUUYS!" Bulma yelled in fright.
They flew as if their lives depended on it. They could feel Frieza in the vast distance, not having made his move yet, but they could also feel life signs and a lot of power in the general distance they were heading to.
Nail, Orn, Nappa, Gohan, and the children were all looking down at the hellish fight. They could feel that Piccolo, Tien, and Vegeta were on the losing side so they didn't waste time. Nail sensed their arrival first. Krillin landed with Bulma first, followed by Yamcha.
"Wow, there are so many Piccolos around here," Bulma said as she ran towards Dende and Cargo.
"Hurry and get inside immediately, the Grand Elder awaits." Nail said, moving to the side and allowing Yamcha to take passage.
"Nice to meet you man, I'm Yamcha."
"Nail, hurry inside. Your friends may not have much longer."
"R-right!" Yamcha did as he was told.
He didn't have to walk long before he entered the chamber, where Grand Elder Guru awaited him.
"Hmmm...COUGH COUGH.. the one I have been waiting for.."
"Uhhh w-wow you're like a giant Piccolo. A-are you sick?" Yamcha looked concerned for the giant, elder namekian. But Grand Elder Guru let a small smile pass his lips.
"Qu-quite the contrary young Earthling...COUGH COUGH...I am simply near the end of my natural life...allow me to connect with you COUGH COUGH..connect with you...child." Yamcha hesitantly stepped forward. Grand Elder Guru placed his massive palm upon the Desert Bandit's head. For a few moments, Guru saw brief stints of the young man's life. A rough childhood, surviving with Puar by robbing people of their goods. Meeting a spiky-haired boy near their desert land. Fighting in great battles, losing most, but always coming back. And then, some kind of sport with a bat and ball, an intervention in the air by a familiar spiky-haired individual.
"COUGH...COUGH...I see you have meant the Traveler. A life of sport, and mediocrity, replaced with an extreme desire to grow stronger."
"Y-yeah...I honestly probably wouldn't be nearly this strong without that...conversation.."
"Indeed...COUGH...Indeed...You, like the human before, and the Triclops, have much potential. I can only pull so much out, the rest will come out through further training, and your heart's needs." Guru caught a small glimpse of the man's future. What he saw greatly surprised him. He mentioned none of it to Yamcha.
Moments later, Yamcha felt something...massive.. it rose from underneath as his power began to surge...
"Agghhh...AHHHHHHH...is-is this...ME?" His power had climbed greatly! Guru released Yamcha's head, allowing the man to slowly stumble back, looking at his hands in shock. His aura, white and smooth, was far larger than before. He felt he could take on the Universe!
"Th-this power..it's...it's amazing! Th-thank you Grand Elder! I'll do all that I can to help defend your people."
"COUGH COUGH...Worry not young one...You must hurry...your friends and the one known as Vegeta are in danger COUGH...COUGH..."
"Ri-right! Thanks again, Grand Elder!" Yamcha hurried out, the door opening in front of him as he gave Nail a thumbs up, who looked at him with slight surprise before he took off, faster than he could ever imagine.
He made it to the battlefield in record time, the woman in his sights not having a chance!
"Alright, baby I got this! Kaioken Times 4!" His aura became red, and his power quadrupled to a level he could scarcely believe!
He came in like a red rocket, planting a kick in Bonyu's face before she was blasted away. Landing, he saw the state of the other fighters.
"I'm glad I made it guys..." Yamcha said.
"COUGH COUGH to-took you long enough." Piccolo choked out. Yamcha tried feeling for Tien's Ki, before looking up, where he saw the 3 eyed warrior coming down, unconscious and fast!
"Shit!" Yamcha jumped up, using his energy to quickly get to Tien. Catching up a few hundred feet from the ground, he hoisted Tien over his shoulder, setting him down when they landed.
"Man you sure took a beating. I'm sorry I wasn't faster."
"I-I'll take the other two with me. Listen, that woman is extremely dangerous Bandit. If you get cocky with her, she can make you pay, badly."
"I got it, Piccolo! She's not getting away with this! You can count on me!" Yamcha smirked, sending a thumbs up before Yamcha flew off to where Bonyu had landed. Just as Yamcha arrived, she was slowly making her way to her feet.
"Blasted bugger. Owww that hurt!" Bonyu held her jaw as Yamcha landed.
"Not a bad kick ya got mate." She said.
"Weeeelll, I do plenty of sit-ups and eat good food, and rest. It is the Turtle way after all." Yamcha said with a wink.
"Turtle? You mean those bloody things that walk along the ground at a quarter-mile an hour?" Bonyu was shaking off the majority of the pain from that kick.
"Awe come on don't be so rude about it. But anyway, I don't wanna hit you anymore so uh heh heh heh could you like uh uh, fly away or something?" Yamcha asked nicely.
"Oh lemme guess, you're one of those that don't hit women hmm?" Bonyu had an evil thought run across her mind. Smiling sweetly, her hair burnt halfway, glass all over her body, her face with various cuts and scrapes. None of that bothered the woman as she walked out of the crumbled mountain, eyeing with her still one good eye the man that had certainly managed to hurt her.
"Say, are you another Saiyan or something? You certainly look like one." Bonyu was indeed curious.
"Afraid not, sorry no monkey jibes today lady." Yamcha got into his unique Turtle stance. Bonyu studied his form closely.
"Doesn't matter I guess. So after I've killed you, I'll get to grab Vegeta, Nappa, and that pint-sized monkey, correct?"
"If you think you can, by all means, try. But I promise you, this is your last dance." They both quickly charged at each other. Yamcha, emblazed in his kaioken aura, closed the distance quickly on the woman, who didn't have a chance to block as a fist slammed into her face, sending her spiraling away. Yamcha quickly followed behind, hitting Bonyu in the back with a clawed hand, sending the shouting woman in the other direction. Bonyu turned quickly, charging back, where the two warriors collided. Yamcha scored first, a front hook kick connecting solidly with Bonyu's jaw, making her impact the ground. Blood was on her chin as she got up and wiped it off. She looked at her hand, where dark red blood stained it.
"You're stronger than the others... I guess I have to take you out fast. BLAST CANNON!" Bonyu yelled, firing a massive blue energy beam toward the Bandit.
"Whoa, she's not playing!" the beam hurtled towards Yamcha. Flying backward, he was prepared to backhand it away when out of nowhere, the blast started breaking apart, firing off hundreds of smaller blue blasts. The Bandit took a wide arc around many of these blasts. Gritting his teeth, he dodged, weaved, and ducked his way toward Bonyu. Coming in hard, he went to backhand the woman, but she smirked, before Yamcha's hand went through an afterimage.
He sensed it at the last second, flipping over the woman as she had an energy-laced punch firing away at the back of his head.
"Wha-!"
BOOM
Soccer kicking the woman away and flipping backward, Yamcha flew down towards her, before using his speed and getting ahead of her on the ground.
"WOLF FANG FIST!" Yamcha scored tremendous damage on the woman, blasting her in the back with a double palm strike to finish the move, he held out both hands, summoning 2 balls of yellow energy.
"DOUBLE SPIRIT BALL!" Yamcha yelled out, firing the twin balls of controlled energy. He too had also refined his technique, to the point where he could now control them with the movement of his fingers, simply moving one to the left to nearly cave in the back of the dodging woman's head.
"Grrrrr this is getting annoying!" Bonyu dodged upwards, managing to catch one of the energy balls and squeezing it into nothingness. She fired a blast at the other, but Yamcha made it dodge, coming in fast toward Bonyu. Thinking quickly, she laced her hand in purple energy, punching the ball into yellow particles.
"Is that all of your bloody techniques?" Bonyu was getting pissed! This...human had caused her more trouble than the 3 fighters from before, and it made it all the more aggravating when the Desert Bandit smirked.
"Nah, got quite a few things I could try out. But come on, you wanna get your hands dirty? So LET'S GO BIGGIN!"
"Bi-biggin? That does it! BLAST SHOWER!" Bonyu yelled, a mass quantity of electrically charged blue-colored beams heading towards the Bandit, who begin to dodge and weave through them.
"AGHHHHHHHHH! BLAST BALLS!" 20 large balls of blue energy began to hurtle toward Yamcha before they all began firing Ki lasers at him.
"Whoa whoa whoa craaaap!" Barely making it through much of the barrage, a stray laser caught Yamcha in the side, blowing him back as he grimaced in pain. Bonyu grinned with sinister intent, flying up amongst her controlled Blast Balls, smashing a kick into Yamcha's other side from behind. She was stunned when he turned around and smirked at her, his elbow having been back far enough to block her attempt. With his left leg, Yamcha kicked Bonyu in the stomach, blowing her backward. Another stray laser nearly caught Yamcha in the forehead as he just moved his head to the side in time, jumping below another two, he caught up to Bonyu, who had righted herself. An explosion in the air signified their struggle as they battled across the sky. Yamcha parried one of the woman's kicks, turning quickly and smashing an elbow in the side of her head. Turning with a roundhouse kick, Yamcha blasted the woman in the side, sending her wildly away into the sky.
"AHHHHHH! YAAHHHH!" Yamcha conjured a yellow ball of energy, hurling it like a baseball toward the woman. Growling as she landed on her feet and saw the attack out of her one good eye, she held up her hands, taking the attack head-on.
"I-I will not let this ha-happen! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhghhhgggrrrr!" A red aura began to surround the woman before she mustered up the strength to hurl the blast away.
"Damn. What's going on with her energy? It's...it's in...creasing?" Yamcha questioned as the woman screamed out to the sky once again, her red aura tearing the ground apart around her. Her screams echoed throughout the lands, making the planet quake beneath her very feet.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
Her aura was intense, her eyes showed surreal hate toward Yamcha.
She didn't say anything, holding out her hands and firing an untold amount of Blast Showers.
"Damn Damn Damn Damn ooooh boy aieeyeee!" One nearly got the Bandit as he continued to dodge by the skin of his teeth.
BAM
"AGH!" Yamcha yelled out as Bonyu clasped her hands together and using her enhanced speed, smashed them into Yamcha's back.
SMASH
"AUCK!" Yamcha's stomach was nearly caved in by the woman's fierce, purple energy-laced punch. The man plowed through one mountain before skidding across the ground uncontrollably until he slid into a body of water. Bonyu flew down towards the water, merely floating a handful of feet above the water.
"I am through, with your games! GET OUT! NOW BEFORE I BLAST THIS ENTIRE OCEAN TO STEAM!" She fired a blue blast into the water, the explosion sending up a tidal wave of green water. She fired several more, these being Blast Balls, into the water, watching as the water began to billow out underneath her. She watched her work, not hearing amongst the explosions, a different kind of explosion that happened behind her. This one of a human exploding out of the water, charging a blue beam of energy.
"KAIOKEN TIMES 6 BITCH! KAMEHAMEHAAAAAAAAAAA!"
The massive blue beam of energy headed right for the woman, who barely had time to turn around, and plowed into her back as she screamed loudly in anguish and pain. Her aura had dissipated. The blast began to burn her skin.
"N-N-NOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooo..."
Yamcha plunged towards the ground, the Kaioken going away instantly. Everything hurt.
'H-h-how did S-Shepard pull off a Ti-Times 10?'
Yamcha hit the ground hard, consciousness having left his body...
They all witnessed what many thought was impossible.
"H-h-how?" Vegeta, having been healed by Sopran again, was stunned. Nappa and Orn both could scarcely believe it.
"SON OF A BITCH HE DID IT!" Krillin yelled out.
The aftershock of the massive explosion reached the tall pillar, nearly blowing back the occupants. Before anyone could celebrate any longer, however, Nail came running out of the hut.
"We have trouble!" Nail quickly said, coming out and looking up at the sky.
"I think I'm sensing them too. It feels like more than one." Piccolo pointed out.
"More than o-one? Wa-wait a moment!" Vegeta said, also looking into the sky. His eyes widened in terror when he felt the strongest one.
"Not now! Damn it all! We need to take those dragon balls and get off this planet!" Vegeta said, panicking as he saw 4 pods break out of the atmosphere, heading in the far-off distance.
"They're gonna land right near Frieza," Tien said.
"They don't seem as strong as that woman!"
"You imbecile! It's not their power that is frightening! They...they have special abilities. They're ridiculous! It's why they're the best of Frieza's force." Vegeta grabbed one ball, getting ready to take the other before a sword landed next to it.
"I won't let you take the dragon balls! We need them!" Gohan said, preparing to fight.
"Stupid kid! The Ginyu Force as a whole makes Bonyu look like a joke! Yeah sure, Bonyu is probably stronger than Ginyu, but I've heard freaky things about that guy." Nappa was just as terror-struck as his Prince.
"I'm gonna go get Yamcha. Be ready with a plan when I get back." Piccolo said, flying down towards the unconscious Bandit...
"Yes! YES! Perfect!" Frieza said as he sat in his chair outside, watching as 4 pods impacted planet Namek with a loud and destructive BOOM. The Arcosian watched as the pods opened, and his illustrious Ginyu Force made their appearance. The first stood out of his pod. At only 5'7", he now stood as the shortest member. A red-skinned, long white-haired warrior with a green scouter on his face. His white battle armor proudly displayed the Ginyu Force emblem on the breastplate. This was the former Galactic Little League pitcher, Jeice. Next, another stood, this one having to be around 7'7". His short orange hair billowing in the wind, Recoome took in the fresh air.
The next member stepped out of his pod. He was even taller, with bluish-purple skin, red eyes with no pupils, and wearing the black variant of the armor. Burter showed a look of disgust as he looked around, seeing his Lord painted in blue blood, he dared not snicker.
And finally, the final member of the group stood out of his pod. Standing roughly 6'7", he had purple skin, with black horns. He also sported the black variant of the planet trade armor, which also had shoulder and thigh protectors.
"Alright, Gentleman. We will display our FIRST, 4-person pose in front of our wonderful Lord Frieza, clear!" Captain Ginyu stated loudly.
"CLEAR!" The other3 shouted.
"Orange, quick come look at once at this marvelous sight!" Frieza ordered. Orange, who was at the doorway, ran down the entry ramp and stood next to his Lord.
"ALLLLLRIIIIGHT!" The 4 warriors begin their routine.
"BURTER!"
"JEICE!"
"RECOOME!
"GINYU!"
Orange didn't know what to make of the spectacle. But Frieza was smirking at the display, amazed at his team's adaptability since their recent loss.
"ANNND GOOO!"
Ginyu spun, turning and bending down, both hands in front.
"GINYU!"
Jeice kicked upwards with one foot, before turning sideways, just behind and to the side of his Captain, ending with his hands raised in fists.
"JEICE!"
Recoome spun several times, his footwork being the most forming out of his squad. Turning his back to everyone, he threw an arm out, fingers stretched outwards and looking back to face his Lord.
"RECOOME!"
Burter ran in place for several moments, before turning and spinning his arms out before stopping in place next to Recoome, arms out on both sides with his left leg in the air.
"BURTER!".
"Splendid. Most splendid!" Frieza was quite enthused at his men.
"RECOOME!"
"BURTER!"
"JEICE!"
"GINYU!"
"TOGETHER WE ARE...THE GINYU FORCE!" they held the pose for several seconds more, listening to Frieza clap his applause, a hesitant, reluctant Orange also clapping.
"At ease boys! Well, this is a surprise, Lord Frieza."
"Hmm, indeed. Normally I send you off to handle the most difficult of missions. However today, I have called you all here for an urgent need."
"Oye my Lord! We have some fresh new Scouters for you!" Jeice quickly ran up to Frieza, opening a small case that he brought with him in his pod.
"Ohh most excellent Jeice. Tell me, are you looking forward to entering the Galactic Majors next year?" Lord Frieza asked with intrigue.
"Not so sure me Lord, that bonus ya gave me just might top what I'd earn there," Jeice replied, watching as Frieza pulled out the red scouter.
"Hm hm hm shame Jeice. And I was hoping to go to one of your games. Pity. Tell me Burter, was that case of Tsufurian wine that I personally sent to your dear Mother sufficient?"
"It damn well better be my Lord, considering it came from your private collection. If she so much as even thinks of hating it, I'll kill her myself!" Butter exclaimed, chuckling as he said it.
"That's what I like to hear Burter hm hm hm hm. And Recoome my dear boy, have you already consumed that one year supply of Brenchian Ice cream sandwiches yet?"
"Nuh uh Lord Frieza, I still have a 4 month's supply left he he he he."
"Wonderful, with a month to spare no less. Perhaps that training regiment I ordered Captain Ginyu to put you all on has done well for you, yes?"
Frieza jumped out of his chair, walking up to the Captain, who he had known since he was a small child. They shook hands, snickering about some unknown inside joke between the two. Frieza was very much aware of Captain Ginyu's abilities. It was the very reason his father had recruited him after all.
"Sir those 2 months...we really needed that since...since Guldo."
"My word, I still never quite understood what could've happened. It was a standard mission was it not?" Frieza stated, having himself gone over the reports of that fated mission.
"That's precisely it my Lord. The Xaoterians weren't even a challenge! We were crushing them and then out of nowhere, a damn stray beam came in and cut him down. We couldn't get him to a healing tank in time, Sir."
"Hmmm. It's as if the tables have been slowly turning against me."
"Hmm, Lord Frieza I don't understand."
"I appreciate your candor, but as you can see, I am already without my aides. I believed Dodoria to be most certainly dead. And I have confirmation that Zarbon is no more. Bonyu has been gone for 2 whole days! I believe she may have perished as well."
"B-Bonyu? Dead? Surely there must be some mistake my Lord." The Captain tapped a button on his scooter. An eyebrow raised, then both, then Captain Ginyu's mouth opened and didn't close.
"There has to be some kind of foul play at hand. MEN!" The Captain yelled.
"It would appear that our Lord requires our services once more! Now, I know that Captain Bonyu was once with us as a proud member of this great Force. But she's still one of us!"
"Right!!" The other 3 chanted.
"We will do what we need to do!"
"YES!"
"For the sake of?"
"THE GINYU FORCE!"
"AND?"
"OUR EMPEROR LORD FRIEZA!" They were in perfect sync as Ginyu turned back to Frieza, who set his new scouter on his head, typing a few buttons. Smirking, Frieza looked at his illustrious Force.
"Most wonderful my good men! Surely you will be able to do what even my most trusted aides, Dodoria or Zarbon could not accomplish on their own. 2 days ago. My ship was attacked, and what is worse, is that VEGETA was behind it!"
"That blasted monkey? What the hell could he possibly be up to?" Juice nearly shouted in shock.
"Pure insanity those monkeys are!" Burter noted.
"Pardon me, my Lord. Are you trying to tell me that Vegeta could have possibly beaten Bonyu?" Captain Ginyu had long developed excellent listening skills, but even he was nearly stunned silent at Frieza's admission.
"Yes...that damn monkey is responsible. He had the audacity to...to...he blew up my FRONT WINDOW! WITH ZARBON'S HEAD!" Frieza may have had 2 days to cool off, but he was still very much angry with the Saiyan Prince. What he had done to Zarbon was unforgivable.
No...no...it had become personal!
"I have a few tasks that I must ask of you. One, I want Vegeta, alive. I want my hands around his throat. To choke the utter life out of him for his daring act. Two, I believe he may be with another monkey. This one is a child. Bring him to me as well. Three, Vegeta may be working with aliens of this planet or perhaps another. I don't care. Eliminate them. No, no wait. There was a Triclops amongst them. I want him alive as well. My father destroyed that species more than 6 decades ago. So there should be no way that he should even exist unless by some blindsided blessing some could have survived. Regardless, I wish to take him prisoner for even thinking of temporarily blinding me as he did. I will have my father handle him, personally. And last, on the agenda, I need the dragon balls that reside on this planet. I have 2 myself. I believe Vegeta may have 1. And one of those damn slugs in all the madness has managed to steal one from my grasp. The nerve!" Just thinking about it made the tyrant fume!
Captain Ginyu realized he needed to speak up.
"Uhh sir, all of those orders aren't a problem to carry out. But uhh, hmmm well we detected another ship not far from us. We beat it here but we couldn't detect any life signs or power levels. Likely whatever material the damn thing is made of causing interference of some kind. Just wanted you to be aware my Lord."
"Hmph. Very well Captain. I suppose if these other worthless gnats decide to get in my way I shall deal with them as well. Carry on!"
"You heard 'em boys! Let's go bag us a wayward monkey!...
THE GINYU FORCE!! Minus one? But how? That will come up sometime in the story, but not this chapter. Bonyu was sure a powerful force! Is she dead? Maaaaaybe! Maaaaaybe not! One must continue to read to figure it out. What did you guys think about that psychological, cruel plan by our Prince? I came up with that on the fly. I know there are naysayers, and people who want to hate on writers. But do remember, this is our thousand-plus-word opinion! Nothing more, nothing less. If you're going to hate for the sake of hating, I am going to return the same vitriol right back. Being constructive is a choice, but so is being a deusche bag. So in turn it is my choice to enjoy the statistic of a pointless review with the vitriol that it deserves. Now that I'm done with that worthless mess, POWER LEVELS!!
