Prologue:

Emptiness, that was all that surrounded him in the empty space. Flying away with an unknown destination. That was all that the small boy could do.

Hugging his knees inside of the pod, completely clueless of what to do. The pod kept him warm, but part of him somehow felt the freezing cold of the space.

"You must stay put until the time is right, remember that." Those were his father's last words before he put him on that pod. "Zaspion."

That was his name, Zaspion. A small Saiyan boy with fair skin, medium length black shaggy hair and ebony colored eyes. He was wearing an a black bodysuit under an elaborated full Saiyan armor in the colors of silver and ebony, alongside a Scouter on his left eye and a strange looking necklace around his neck.

Okay... The boy decided that he had enough of just waiting and decided to use his Scouter to calculate his destination. According to the trajectory, I'll be going to a planet called... Earth... A planet with low level creatures and habitants. That was good, he wouldn't have to worry much about things. Originally, an infiltration baby was supposed to be sent there, but father replaced him with me. Zaspion was still confused about what exactly was the plan, but he had no choice but to do as his father commanded.

He took a good look outside, seeing the empty space as his pod flew in a rapid speed. Passing through several planets, stars and even meteors. With Zaspion appreciating the beautiful sight of each of them as he wonders what does the planet that he will be landing on looks like.

After what appeared to be an eternity of observation, he made a decision. I should be hibernating, it would make time pass faster. Zaspion thought as he decided to sleep until he arrived at his destination. I need to formulate a plan, but I can only do that after I seen the place where I will be staying. That was his last thought before he closed his eyes.


So he slept, for an considerable amount of time. Until something woke him up. "Huh?" A very loud sound was heard by him. "What?!" The sound was sometype of alarm that the pod was emitting, confused, Zaspion searched around to see what was wrong. "Oh no!" The little boy realized that there was something wrong with the pod, because the trajectory was destabilized. However, he realized that he has arrived at his destination as he sees that he was approaching a beautiful looking planet.

Unfortunately, he had no time to appreciate the view, because he was too busy checking the pod to see. Dammit, it's gonna explode as soon as it lands! He spoke out loud as he found the problem. It has been sabotaged. It was obvious to him. But how?! Only father and I came into contact with this pod!

As he entered the planet, Zaspion knew that it was just a matter of time before he lands. I don't know the scale of the explosion but it will be bad, I have to get this in a secluded area. Otherwise, he would call that planet's attention.

The Saiyan then proceeded to punch the front of the ship, as hard as it could, which destroyed. Unfortunately, he forgot that his powers were suppressed. "Oh no!" He yelled as he desperately tried to get the door open. Thankfully, the system of the pod was still working and he was able to get the door open. Giving him an opening, once he placed his head outside, he saw that there was an forest right under him. Realizing the amount of destruction that it would cause, Zaspion activated the controls of the pod and used to redirect it towards somewhere else.

Come on..., there's got to be somewhere. Doing his best to avoid areas that seemed to be populated, something that was a difficult task as he only barely avoided hitting sometype of tower. Eventually, he was able to find a landing spot. Water... A large ocean appeared before him, which was the perfect place.

"One, two, THREE!" Zaspion then jumped out the ship and fell into the water. Becoming submerged but quickly rising up. Which allowed him to take a final view of his pod, before it crashed into the water.

...

...

...

"Dammit..." Only for a very powerful explosion to occur a few seconds later. So powerful that it was enough to create a giant wave that came towards him. Engulfing Zaspion as soon as it reached him.

For several minutes, Zaspion became lost in the sea with the water pushing him in a considerable speed thanks to the power of his pod's explosion. The truth, Zaspion was starving, which was why he was having difficulty to come out of the water. Despite that, Zaspion maintained his calm and prepared himself for an opening, that eventually came in the form of a sea creature, that seemed to be managing to swim into the wave. It was a giant sea creature that his Scouter identified as a whale. It did a pretty decent job in swimming through the wave, a incredibly powerful wave that will definitely cause damage somewhere, but it will definitely just come off as a natural disaster.

Eventually, the massive force that was caused by the explosion ceased, finally allowing the boy to let go of the sea creature and swim into the surface.

Taking a deep breath, Zaspion searched his surroundings and unfortunately, all that he saw was more water. Great, I better start swimming until I find land. That was his only plan. I wish I could just fly off of it, but father made me wear this necklace keep my power level low, so I can't control my energy properly. He thought in deep annoyance, as he started to swim. There's gotta be land somewhere. Swimming as quickly as he could, Zaspion decided that he wouldn't stop until he found land.


He must have been swimming for a whole day, because it was dark now and still no sign of land. Zaspion was very tired, mostly due to starvation. Despite doing his best to stay awake, he could feel that he would lose conscious at any second. Can't fall asleep. He told himself as he kept pushing forward. But as he did, he noticed something from afar. Using his Scouter, he identified what it was.

An Island? That was the closest thing to land that he could possibly find at the moment. So using his remaining strength, Zaspion pushed forward in order to reach the small island.

Only to finally pass out , the second he managed to reach it.


"Mmmm..." Zaspion could feel the water touching his feet and feel a warm sensation. Opening his eyes, he realized that it was due to daylight. It was morning, meaning that he has been unconscious for a considerable amount of time. "Ahhh..." Zaspion used his remaining strength to stand up and check his surroundings.

It seems like he was on a very small island in the middle of the sea.A very small island that only had one distinct thing in it. A house.

The house itself is very distinctive. It is painted pink, with a red roof, and the words "KAME HOUSE" are displayed prominently on the front of the upper story.

Maybe there's food in it. His body felt incredibly heavy and he had to forced himself to move forward. Slow and labored steps towards the house was all that he could do. This has to be side effect of the suppressor, there is no way that I'm this weak from starvation. That was Zaspion's main theory over why he was in such a poor state.

Eventually, Zaspion reached the house and entered through the front door. Wait, what? The inner layout of the first floor is not consistent with the outer layout. In the outside, there are windows that do not exist in the inside; and in the inside, there are rooms and stairs in places that do not fit the outer walls. What is is this? Zaspion was confused. The first floor of the House consists of a main room, which serves as a living room. It has a scream set, a closet, a low table, and some cushioned seatings. From the living room, there are doors leading to a kitchen on the back, and to the toilet on the right. On the left side, there are stairs for the second floor.

Zaspion checked his surroundings to see if he could find anyone, because that house was in a good state, meaning that someone had to live there. The owner isn't present at the moment. So he decided to exploit that opportunity by making his way to the House's kitchen.

He attempted to step forward, but unfortunately, his knees buckled. "Ah!" Zaspion grunted. Great, now I can't even stand. "Mmmm..." He continued to grunt as he forced himself to move forward until he was able to reach the couch, which he used to support himself. Taking a deep breath, Zaspion use it all of his remaining energy to stumble forward, reaching the kitchen but falling on the floor in the process. Almost there, just a little more. He told himself as he crawled forward. "Mmmm..." The little boy slowly reached the refrigerator, which he was used to store food. Please... have food or I'm done for.

Opening slowly, a smile appeared on his face as he saw the contents inside.


It took him less than five minutes to completely clean the refrigerator, with him now sitting in front of the empty refrigerator. Sighing, the boy felt better, but his body was still a little strange. The foods inside the refrigerator were very tasty, which was a relieve since he was afraid that Earth would have bad food.

It confirms that it's a side effect of suppressor. The boy confirmed. But my state of starvation probably added to the side effect. He thought as he stood up from the floor. His body was still a little heavy but it wasn't as bad as before.

The first thing he did, was inspect the necklace that was suppressing his power. It had the appearance of a beautiful golden necklace, but in truth, it resembled the slave collar that his father used on his slaves. Which was something that really bothered Zaspion. Did you created this with me in mind or did you just gave me one of your slave collars? He asked himself in deep confusion. As long as I'm wearing this, my power levels will be limited, so I'm practically as weak as a Earthling. Which could be a good thing as he could easily pass as one, except for a small detail. Which was his tail, which was wrapped around his hip like a belt. Maybe I should cut it off... It wouldn't be good if I transformed myself during a full moon... Despite being able to control his transformation, it would call too much attention.

...

...

...

No way! He quickly shut down the idea, because his tail was his favorite physical feature. I'm just going to avoid looking at the moon. That was his solution. Okay, now, I need to leave befor- Before he could finish that thought, the front door that he came from opened.

Causing him to immediately crouch and hide. Using his visor, Zaspion identified the individual. Dammit... Only to get an unpleasant surprise. His power level is considerable for a Earthling. Which is bad because he suppressor keeps his power level extremely low.

Hiding behind the wall, Zaspion considered his next action carefully. Direct confrontation is out of the question, but I have no idea whatsoever about how far is land and if I get hungry again-

"You should really clean your boots before entering someone's home, child." While Zaspion was busy thinking about, he didn't notice that the one that just entered into the home has approached him.

Despite being startled by him, Zaspion immediately looked down and realized that his boots were indeed filled with sand, wet sand. "Apologies." Zaspion decided to simply apologize for his intrusion.

He was able to take a good look at the individual. He was bald, with a thick white fu manchu mustache and beard. He is wearing a pairsunglasses. He wears beach clothes and aTurtle Shellon his back. He also wielded a walking stick.

Any other Saiyan would have simply attacked, but Zaspion was smart enough to know that fighting in his current state was way too risky. Especially considering that the old man was clearly more powerful than he appeared to be.

"Apology accepted, but... what exactly are you doing in my house?" The old man wearing sunglasses asked him.

"I... Had a little accident and..." Zaspion tried to come up with a good explanation to how he ended up in a island in the middle of the sea, but it was quite difficult.

"I'll bet, that was quite an explosion." He told him as he scratched his beard.l.

It only took a few seconds for Zaspion to notice. "You saw my pod, didn't you?" It was quite obvious that he did.

"As a matter of fact, I did." He confirmed. "I was outside, appreciating the sun while enjoying some good reading." By good reading, he meant a porn magazine as he was actually imagining a very attractive woman with a large breasts that he saw on it. "Then I saw some strange sphere descending from the sky and falling into the ocean before exploding."

"It wasn't supposed to explode, someone sabotaged in order to kill me." Zaspion explained the reason behind the explosion. Who the hell sabotaged that pod? He asked himself.

"Kill you?" The old man seemed surprised. "Who are you exactly?"

"My name is Zaspion, and as I am certain that you already figured it out, I came from another planet." There was no point in hiding it and it was obvious that the old man had no ill intent towards him.

"Actually, I was thinking that was sometype of new flying device." The old man corrected him. "You only confirmed now that it was a space ship."

Zaspion had an urge to slap his forehead in frustration. I guess this planet's level of technological expertise is considerable. In truth, Zaspion had no idea of what expect, he was half expecting a more primitive planet, but it seems that it was more advanced than he was expecting.

"I'm Roshi, Master Roshi to be more precise." The man introduced himself.

"Master Roshi?" Zaspion knew what the word Master implied. "Do you own a slave or something?" He searched around to see if there's was anyone in the house.

"Excuse me?!" The old man was clearly shocked by what he just heard.

"My father's slaves always call him "Master", that's why I'm asking." Zaspion's father often took a slaves from the planets that were invaded by the Saiyan, according to him, some of the races were too valuable to just be destroyed. "Or are you a different kind of "Master"?"

"Umm... Yes, I'm a Martial Arts Master." He answered his question.

"Martial Arts?" Zaspion was confused, since the word was strange to him. But then he used his Scouter to identify the word and by the looks of it, it was how Earthling referred to Combat. "Oh... You're a Master of Combat then."

"That's a strange way to put it, but yes." Master Roshi told him.

"I see, anyway, I-" Before Zaspion could continue with his explanation. He suddenly felt his body getting heavy once again, his vision also got blurry. "Not... Again..." He spoke before he collapse right in front of the old man.


"Dammit..." Zaspion said as his eyes opened once again. Realizing that he was laying on something soft. The boy then sat up, realizing that he was in the middle of the living room, right on top of the couch. Dammit, this necklace is going to be more trouble than it's worth it if I keep losing consciousness because of it.

Looking around, he realized that the old man was sitting right front of him, but he had his back turned, because he was looking quite intensively at a screen.

Moving his head a bit, Zaspion decided to check what exactly he was watching on that screen. Only to make a very confused face as he saw that there was a young female Earthling on the screen, wearing a considerably revealing outfit, doing what appeared to be stretching exercises. Immediately, Zaspion made a confused face. A lot of those exercises are pretty ineffective. Zaspion thought as he watched as well. Though, the female Earthlings on the screen is quite pretty. Despite the difference in appearance between a Saiyan and a Earthling being little to none, Zaspion couldn't help but notice that Earthling seemed a more soft in appearance, which he honestly prefers.

Looking down, he noticed that he was only wearing his bodysuit and the necklace. With his armor, boots and scouter being on top of the table in front of the couch. Taking a deep breath, Zaspion stood up from the couch.

Once he did, Master Roshi turned around and greeted. "Oh, you're awake."

"How long was I unconscious?" Zaspion asked as he scratched his head.

"A few hours." Master Roshi informed.

"Oh, I see." Zaspion spoke before grabbing his scouter and placing it back on his eye. "Once again, I apologize for the intrusion." He bowed respectfully to the old man. "I will be leaving now."

"Before you go, would mind answering me a question?" Master Roshi asked as Zaspion reached to pick up his armor.

"No." Zaspion spoke as he put on his boots. "Ask away."

"If you're really from another planet, why did you come to this planet?" The old man asked him. Sincerely, I think this boy is just joking, but the way he spoke seemed so sincere. Roshi doesn't quite believe that Zaspion is really an alien.

"My father sent me here, I need to stay hidden for the time being." Zaspion picked his armor up in order to put it back on.

"And why exactly do you need to hide ?" He asked him.

"It's a long story." Zaspion replied as he puts his armor down.

"Well, I have time and I doubt that you actually have plans of where to go after leaving." The old man pointed out to him.

Zaspion sighed because it was truth. He really had no plan, the closest thing of one is search for shelter and hunt for some food but those are only short term solutions for his current predicament. "I guess you're right, but why exactly are you interested in knowing about it."

"Simple curiosity." He adjusted his sunglasses after saying that. And to figure it out if you're actually just lying.

Zaspion didn't really believe his reason, but he decided to pretend that he did. "Alright," He decided to tell him. "For starters, I belong to race called Saiyan."

"Saiyan." Roshi seemed to have thought the name was strange.

"We Saiyans are sort of like planet brokers." Zaspion decided to be blunt to avoid any confusion. "We scour space for planets that will bring a high price on the galactic market. Once we find them we send our warriors there to purge them of any life and make them ready for sale."

Roshi seemed to be shocked by what he just heard. "P-purge them?!" That part was obviously the reason why. "Yes, your planet was actually marked to be purged by an infiltration baby."

"Infiltration baby, what does that mean?!" He asked the boy.

"A baby Saiyan's power level is measured as soon as they are born, if their power level is up to standard they are raised as upper-level warriors and become combatant candidates." He began to explain how things work in his planet." If their power level remains low even after a certain amount of time has passed, they are classed as low-level warriors and become either engineers, scientists, or infiltration babies." Zaspion had no such a problem. "Infiltration babies are sent off to a planet the Saiyans have selected for take over, and if the baby grows up into a warrior capable of taking over the planet they are allowed to return as a full-fledged combatant." Zaspion wonders what happened to the infiltration baby that was supposed to be sent to Earth before he stole his pod. "But, you have nothing to worry about, I actually took the place of the infiltration baby and I have no intention of purging your planet." His father once told him multiple times that some of the planets that were purged had great potential and their destruction was nothing more than a complete waste. "I simply wish to hide in here."

"I see..." The old man was still a little shocked by what he told him, but he clearly believe Zaspion when he told him that he only wished to hide. "But, what exactly are you hiding from?" That was the important question.

Taking deep breath, Zaspion decided to explain. "Like I said, a baby Saiyan's power level is measured as soon as they are born." He repeated what he said just now. "And... when I was a baby, my power level was over ten thousand. " He revealed to the old man. "And before you ask, that is a lot." In case of Roshi not knowing what he meant.

"Yes, that's a pretty high number." He clearly knew that it was a lot. "But, isn't that good thing?"

"Maybe it would be, if it wasn't for a very specific reason or very specific person." Zaspion was about to tell the complicated part. "You see, despite Saiyans priding themselves as great warriors, they actually served under a an powerful Lord called Frieza." Zaspion remembered the time he actually met Frieza and the individual terrified him. "The Saiyans, like many other races, were drafted to serve as soldiers in Frieza's empire." Due to the Saiyans' innate strength and penchant for violence, they were considered to be useful mercenaries and assisted in the conquering of many planets, or if assignment called for, eradication of the planet's population , even Saiyan children were considered powerful enough to conquer some of the weaker planets, such as Earth.

"And this Frieza is the the reason to why you have to hide?" Master Roshi clearly already knew the answer.

"There is a legend among the Saiyans " He explained further. " Once every thousand years, a Saiyan who overcomes the wall which no warrior, no matter how gifted, can overcome." Zaspion always thought that was nothing more than a stupid tradition. "A Super Saiyan, powerful enough to destroy even Frieza.."

"And due to the high power level that you were born with, there's a chance that you are the so called "Super Saiyan"." Roshi easily understood the implication.

"My father believe that to be a possibility." Zaspion wasn't so sure of it. "You see, our planet was ruled by a King called King Vegeta and my father was his royal advisor, practically the second in command of Saiyan Race." Which was a pretty stupid way to describe it, in truth, Zaspion's father practically rule the Saiyans, since he's the one that does all the actual work. "So... Besides Frieza, there was also the possibility of King Vegeta feeling threatened by the possibility of me being the fabled Super Saiyan." A foolish fear, if Zaspion's father wanted, he would have overthrown King Vegeta years ago. "So my father made me wear this." He showed his necklace to him. "This suppresses my power levels, making them drop exponentially." And so far it has been way more trouble than it's worth it. "Then he sent me here to hide until it's time to execute his plan." That was the end of his explanation.

"What plan?" Master Roshi asked.

"I..." He looked away embarrassed. "Don't know, he didn't really told me his plan." Which frustrated Zaspion beyond belief. "He simply ordered me to stay hidden."

"Mmmm..." Master Roshi was digesting all that he just heard. I can tell that this boy isn't lying. Despite the story sounding absurd, an alien from another planet came to Earth to hide from sometype of Evil Lord and a King that are afraid of him being a legendary warrior that is powerful enough to destroy them. But he doesn't look like an Alien. Despite the fact that Zaspion was being truthful, the old man was having doubts. "Forgive me for asking, but you don't really look too different from a human."

After hearing that, Zaspion decided to prove it. By pretty much showing him the major difference between a Saiyan and a Earthling. "Except for this." Zaspion unwrapped his tail from around his hip and use it to grab the walking stick off his hand. "Unless Earthling also have tails." He wiggled the walking sticks in the air with his tail.

"Huh?!" Roshi was surprised to see that Zaspion had a tail. "Is that real?"

"Yes, and I am not going to take off my outfit to prove it." Zaspion immediately stated as he pointed at the tail. "All Saiyans possess a tail, that is the only noticeable difference between an Earthling and Saiyan when it comes to physical appearance."

There was no way that tail was fake, so Roshi had no more doubts. Alright, if he's really an alien from another planet, running away from other aliens... An awful thought came into Roshi's mind. "Ummm... What happens if the people that are after you... find you?" Roshi asked him.

A dark look appeared on Zaspion's face and he looked at the floor to avoid eye contact with Roshi. "I will probably be forced to face Frieza in combat..." He clearly had no desire to do that. "But the probability of me actually defeating him in combat is very low." Almost non-existent.

"And why is that?" Roshi asked the young boy.

"Ummm..." He seemed a little embarrassed. "My... Combat abilities..." The boy sighed in deep shame. "Are mediocre at best." A fact that it wasn't really his fault. Saiyan fighters, have a tendency of heavily relying on their brute strength and overall toughness to beat their opponent. Despite Zaspion's naturally high power level, he knew that wouldn't be good enough to face someone like Frieza.

Master Roshi barely reacted to that claim.

Mostly because Zaspion was still very young and could improve his fighting skills with training. But there was something that he really needed to know. "What would happen to the planet afterwards?" That was the thing that actually worried.

Zaspion realized that the old man just wanted to know what would happen to his own planet. "Either purging or destruction. " He gave Roshi a very dark look after saying that.

Hearing that made Roshi feel uneasy.

Noticing that he has upset Master Roshi with the revelation of his planet's possible demise. Zaspion made a decision. "Forgive me once again for the intrusion," Zaspion spoke. "I will take my leave now." Then he proceeded to retrieve his armor.

Master Roshi was still digesting what he just heard. The whole planet being destroyed if he is found. He could not believe that was actually a possibility. Looking through his sunglasses as the child puts on his strange looking armor back on. I could tell by the way he spoke that this little boy is terrified, and honestly, the whole situation just sounds horrifying. Having to go to another planet to escape an Evil Lord that wants to kill you because of a legend. The situation is unbelievably bad.

Zaspion finished putting his armor back on and then he wrapped his tail around his hip. Wasted a lot of time here, I need to find sometype of shelter. He thought as he turned around to face the old man. "Farewell, Master Roshi." Zaspion then bowed respectfully towards the one who's home he invaded.

With that, Zaspion moved past Roshi, making his way towards the door. I don't know why I told him all of that, maybe it was because I felt grateful or something. His planet may be destroyed at any time if I do get discovered, at least he can prepare for the end if that happens. I plan on doing everything I can to avoid it, but plans always have the possibility of failing. The Saiyan Boy thought as he reached the exit. But, all I have to do his find a place to hide and stay put until father comes or I get some type of signal. Zaspion just hoped that Planet Vegeta wasn't in complete chaos or something. There was something strange going on at the moment of my departure, like every single Saiyan on a mission simply returned out of nowhere. Something was definitely going on, but I can't think of any explanation to it. He opened the door and was about to step outside. Oh well, there's no use dwelling about it now... I'll just ask father when I see him again.

"Wait." Master Roshi called him as he stepped out of the door.

"Yes?" The boy looked back to see what he wanted. I really have to go now, what the hell does he want?

Master Roshi slowly approached Zaspion. "I have an offer to make you."

"Offer?" Zaspion raised a brow. "What kind of offer?" The young Saiyan asked skeptically.
