Chapter Text

Five years have passed since the last World Martial Arts Tournament. With Son Goku and Arale Norimaki becoming wed and living in Mt. Poazu together. Although, Piccolo is still a threat to the Earth. But peace has remained for the last five years. With Piccolo, Goku, and Arale growing stronger in that time. But on this day, Goku had decided to head to Kame House, to reunite with his friends.

Arale saw him off on the Nimbus Cloud. Waving goodbye to her husband before deciding to head back inside. She then suddenly felt the presence of multiple individuals around her. She looked around, seeing no one before one then attacked her. She easily knocked him away, before kicking the second attacker into a nearby tree. One was with green skin and the other with dark blue. Both demonic in appearance.

"Who are you two?" Asked Arale.

"They're Ginger and Sansho." Smirked a voice coldly from behind her. Arale flipped around, only to see another demonic figure. "And I'm Nikki."

"Good to know," replied Arale.

"We want your Dragon Ball, and we know you have the Four Star Ball."

"Oh, really?" Asked Arale before instantly appearing before Nikki and flicking him away.

He crashed into a tree, and was stunned she had such power. He tried to get up and fight back, but found that she was already standing over him.

"P-please don't kill me!" He cried.

"If you tell me why you want our Dragon Ball, I might." Replied Arale as she crossed her arms.

"S-simple, our master, Garlic Jr, wants all of the Dragon Balls to become immortal."

Suddenly, Ginger and Sansho jumped at Arale. But Arale noticed this and stuck a hand out behind her. Blasting them to dust with a purple Ki Blast. The sight shook Nikki to his core as Arale then crossed her arms again.

"Now, please take me to Garlic Jr and don't try anything funny or you'll meet them soon."

"O-okay ... I-I will, Miss."

...

Meanwhile, Piccolo was meditating by some rocky cliffs. Before sensing a massive power approaching him. His eyes shot open, before he stood up and saw a figure flying towards him. He had long hair and wore some kind of armor. He looked human enough to Piccolo, but he quickly realized he wasn't due to his tail.

"Well, you're not Kakarot, who are you?" Bellowed the mysterious figure.

"My name is Piccolo, who might you be?"

"My name is Raditz, have you seen my brother Kakarot?"

"No, and I don't have time to play games with you. I'm busy so if you could please leave that would appreciated."

"Oh? Am I scaring you green man?" Raditz smirked.

"I said leave!" Cried Piccolo before firing a yellow Ki Blast at Raditz. The blast doing nothing to him, however.

Piccolo was left speechless as Raditz chuckled, prepared to kill Piccolo before his scouter beeped. He clicked a few buttons before detecting a much greater power than Piccolo's.

"Mhm ... Only five-hundred. Could be interesting. I'll see you later, bug." Smirked Raditz before he rocketed off.

Piccolo was now worried, he didn't know there could be such a strong power like this. He wondered if he could rival Goku or Arale. He decided to follow this mystery man, and to see if his assumptions were correct.

...

Meanwhile, Goku arrived at Kame House, being greeted by Master Roshi, Bulma, Turtle, and Krillin. But all of them were surprised when they saw a small purple haired child step out from behind Goku.

"G-Goku ... who is ... that kid with you?" Asked Krillin nervously.

"Oh, he's my son."

"Your son!?" Cried the group.

"Yep," Goku smiled, "his name is Gohan. Say hi buddy."

"H-hi," Gohan waved nervously.

"Aww he's so cute," smiled Bulma as she knelt down to his level. "Now how old are you, cutie?"

"f-four," he said meekly.

"Well he's certainly the spitting image of you and Arale." Laughed Krillin.

"Yeah, I'd say so." Chuckled Goku as he rubbed the back of his head.

Goku then stopped, so did Krillin. The both of them sensing a massive power heading towards them. Little did they know, but Raditz was heading right to Kame House. To have a reunion with his long lost brother. Bulma, Gohan, and Roshi were worried as Goku and Krillin took fighting stances. Prepared to meet this unknown power.

...

Arale was unaware of this situation going on, and instead had arrived at the palace of Garlic Jr with Nikki. The two quickly entered into the dark and gothic palace. With Arale calling out Garlic Jr's name. Suddenly a blue Ki Blast struck Nikki, killing him instantly before knocking him back. Arale then looked up, finding the perpetrator to be a small teal skinned creature.

"So ... are you Garlic Jr?"

"I am, and that traitor Nikki seems to have brought you here for you to kill me. No matter, I'll get rid of you anyhow."

"I doubt it, but do your best I suppose." Arale remarked.

Garlic Jr then rushed towards her, throwing a punch before Arale dodged it and kicking him upwards. She then fired a purple blast towards him. The blast made contact with him and instantly destroyed him. Leaving nothing behind. "Well ... that was easier than I thought." Arale shrugged before she went around destroying Garlic Jr's palace.

...

Back with Goku, Raditz had made it to Kame House. Greeting his brother coldly as Goku asked who he was.

"You really don't remember me, Kakarot?" Raditz asked.

"No, I don't! And stop calling me that! My name is Goku."

"So you've forgotten your Saiyan name too? Such a shame, I guess I'll have to explain it to you." Raditz replied, before beginning to explain Goku's history to him.

Goku and everyone else was surprised at the fact Goku was an alien, but it did all line up as to why Goku was the way he was. Same with this man being his long lost brother. However, Raditz then explained to him that he had failed at his mission to eradicate Earth and thus he would have to pay for it.

"As if!" Cried Goku, "this is my home and I won't join you in conquering it!"

"Then I guess I'll just take your son, maybe he will be a better Saiyan warrior than you." Raditz replied before approaching Gohan.

"Get away from him!" Cried Goku before he kicked Raditz back.

The blow surprised Raditz, not only because he didn't think his brother would attack him. But also because of the power behind it. It was so much stronger than a simple 500 power level. Could, Kakarot have been suppressing his true battle power? Raditz was knocked back into the ocean, he quickly tried to recover before grabbing at his chest in pain.

"Stay away from my son!" Cried Goku, "or else you'll face the consequences!"

"Tch, K-Kakarot, how ... how did you get so, so strong?"

"Training with my wife of course, now surrender, I don't want to have to hurt you anymore."

Raditz wasn't stupid, he wanted to kill his brother and conquer this planet or else Vegeta and Nappa would kill him. But he realized that he would most likely die by his brother's hands if he didn't surrender. So, wanting to live longer, he picked the best option for him.

"F-fine, I'll surrender. But it won't matter, Kakarot."

"Why not?" Asked Goku, preparing himself for another attack from Raditz.

"Because, because I have two partners of mine. Who will come to this planet if I don't return with you, and trust me when I say that they'll kill all of you. You may be stronger than me, but you are nowhere near they're level, Kakarot."

"We'll see about that," replied Goku.

"Please, you have to believe me!" Cried Radtiz.

"Then I suppose we'll have to get stronger to face them." Goku then extended a hand out to Raditz.

"What are you doing?" He asked.

"Don't you want to join forces against them? And get as strong as me?"

"Goku, this probably isn't a good idea." Pleaded Krillin.

But Goku ignored him, "please, brother." Said Goku warmly before Raditz shook his brother's hand and was helped to his feet.

"Good, now we should find a way to grow our strength. If our current level won't be enough for these two, then we'll have to find something better. You're already stronger than Kami, so I doubt his training will do you much good."

"I might have an idea," said a deep voice the group knew all to well.

"Piccolo!" Cried Goku as Piccolo flew down to the brothers.

"What do you want bug man?" Asked Raditz as he ripped his scouter off and crushed it in his hands. In anger at seeing Piccolo once more, as if his weakness disgusted him.

"Simple, I want to prevent these invaders from coming to my planet. But I'm going to need your help to do so."

"Why would you need our help?" Asked Krillin.

"Well, Goku has incredible strength, and so does Arale. We could use that to our advantage." Piccolo replied.

"How so?" Asked Goku.

"She can train with her son and the weakest fighters, but the stronger one's can train with someone more powerful than Kami."

"Who could be more powerful than him?" Goku questioned.

"A being called King Kai, I remember him from when me and Kami were one. He resides in Otherworld, but Kami can take both you and your brother there. While I will stay on Earth."

"Sounds good to me," replied Goku.

Suddenly Arale flew over to the group, seeing the interesting scene before her. "Hey guys, what did I miss?"

...

Deep in space, Vegeta and Nappa had just finished conquering a planet. Killing the inhabitants in order to sell the planet off within the Frieza Force. They were currently eating the pieces of their victims, before receiving Raditz scouter transmission. Hearing all about how he was easily defeated, begged for mercy, and received it before the transmission cut off.

"That low life traitor!" Cried Nappa, "he's such a weakling for begging for mercy like that, it's not Saiyan-like."

"Calm down, Nappa." Smirked Vegeta, "this would've happened sooner or later. The point is that his brother is going to be stronger than him. But even a single Saibamen is too, so I don't think its much to worry about. In any case we should go there and kill Raditz for being such a weakling. His brother too, and then we'll wipe out the whole planet."

Vegeta and Nappa began laughing as they summoned their space pods, setting their destination for Earth and leaving shortly thereafter.

"Wait ... so this guy is your brother, you both are from a near extinct alien race, and two more aliens are coming to this planet to kill us all and sell it for some empire?" Asked Arale

"Correct," replied Goku as he rubbed the back of his head.

"You did forget to mention that we are also going to train with someone named King Kai." Added Raditz.

Arale then glared over to him, "you also forgot that you tried to kidnap my son."

"Unsuccessfully I might add!" Retorted Raditz.

"Okay, okay, whatever. So I'm gonna stay here on Earth to train up anyone who wants it?"

"Pretty much, that was my idea anyway." Replied Piccolo as he crossed his arms.

Arale glanced at Piccolo before turning back to Goku. "Well then, let's get to it."

"Alright!" Cried Goku happily before embracing Arale in a hug. "Me and Raditz will make sure to train to become stronger than ever." He smiled as Arale held her husband tightly.

"Of course, make sure to come home by the time we need you again."

Goku nodded, "Of course, Arale." Goku replied as he broke the hug before kissing Arale on the lips. Goku then broke the kiss and turned to his brother. "Are we ready to go to Kami's Lookout?"

Raditz nodded, "let's go, brother."

The two then flew off towards the distance, with Arale and Gohan watching them go. She then turned towards Krillin, asking him if he wanted to train with her.

"You sure this training ain't gonna kill me?" He chuckled as Arale laughed.

"Good point, maybe you aren't ready for my type of training like my husband is."

"Yeah, I'm gonna go train with Kami instead. So I'll see you guys later." Krillin replied, before waving goodbye and flying into the distance in the same direction as Goku and Raditz.

"Well then, I guess that leaves me." Piccolo said.

"Yeah, you can go train on your own. Me and my son are going to train together." Arale replied before quickly picking Gohan up and flying into the distance.

Piccolo was stunned before angrily following after them. Arale could sense him following them, so she quickly landed in an abandoned field. Setting Gohan down before turning around and facing Piccolo.

"What do you want?" Asked Arale as Gohan hid nervously behind her.

"I want to train with you, Arale."

"What!?" She cried, "are you kidding me!? After everything your father and you have done to me and my husband. You expect me to train you?"

"Please? I know you don't trust me, but these aliens, they're too much for me or any of us. Only a being such as yourself has caused great fear within myself like that before. The feeling of being at another's mercy, so please, give me the ability to fight back against them."

Arale snorted, "why do we even need your help, Piccolo? We have me, my husband, my brother-in-law, my son, and Krillin who are training for the battle. I suspect that Yamcha, Tien, and Chiaotzu will also be training for it should they hear about our situation. So what makes you think we need you?"

Piccolo nodded somberly, "fine then, I will train on my own. Take care then, you two." He then ascended into the sky and flew away from the area.

"Good riddance," Arale replied before turning and looking at her young son. "Now then, let's get to your training little one."

...

Meanwhile, Goku and Raditz had finally arrived at Kami's Lookout. Kami already knew about their current situation and thus needed no explanation from them. The brother's then asked if they could be sent to King Kai's planet. To which Kami said he could take them to Otherworld, but that the journey to King Kai's planet would be on their own. The brother's agreed, and thus were teleported to Otherworld.

There, they stood in front of the massive desk of King Yemma, the ruler of Otherworld. They then also saw the process of him sending souls to their final resting place. He was imposing and didn't seem to be very friendly to Raditz.

"I don't like the look of this, Kakarot." Said Raditz.

But Goku ignored him, "hey there!" He waved towards King Yemma, who peered down at the young Saiyan.

"Kami, who are these two? And why aren't they dead?"

The Oni around Yemma began to close in on the two. Before Kami called out to King Yemma.

"King Yemma," he began, "we are here because a great threat is heading towards our planet. Two Saiyan warriors, now Goku and Raditz here are simply requesting to train with King Kai."

"Mhm ... Raditz, huh? I know you, you're a pretty bad guy it seems."

Raditz cocked an eyebrow, "you do? Really?"

"Yes, now normally I wouldn't let you train with my former master. But, Goku here seems a lot better than you. So, I suppose fair is fair. Either way I know where I'm sending you should you arrive here." Raditz gulped nervously as Goku thanked Yemma. "But, you two are going to have to take Snake Way to get to King Kai's planet. It's a very long and tedious task."

"Don't worry, Yemma, they're up to the task." Kami replied confidently.

"Then what are you two waiting for!?" Yemma cried, "you're holding up the line!"

"Sorry, Yemma." Replied Goku cheekily as he and Raditz rushed towards the beginning of Snake Way, just outside of King Yemma's Domain.

Once there, an Oni told them about how long the path was and to not fall off, as hell was below that. Goku and Raditz nodded before quickly setting off on their journey.

...

Back on Earth, many hours had passed. Krillin, Tien, Yamcha, and Chiaotzu had officially decided to undertake Kami's training. They weren't ready for Kami's section of the training, so Mr. Popo began to teach them everything he knew.

Arale had also begun training her son. Both had not seen Piccolo in sometime. Which didn't bother either of them, although it did make Arale wonder how Piccolo was going to get stronger. In any case, Gohan was excelling at Arale's training. His strength, speed, and skills already far surpassing that of peak adult humans. Arale wondered how this kid could grow so powerful. She suspected it might have something to do with her already outrageous strength combined with her husbands.

The only problem she seemed to encounter was that Gohan was still a meek and nervous boy. Thus, he was unable to use his skills to their fullest just yet. But Arale figured that he would grow out of that in sometime. Although it did concern her, as he was still afraid of dinosaurs and other large creatures. Despite having enough power to defeat them with one flick of his finger.

"Alright, honey. Let's have some dinner back at home." Cried Arale, clothes and skin covered in sweat and dirt.

"Okay, Mom." Smiled the tired and dirty Gohan.

Arale began to fly, waiting for her son to follow behind as he had shown the ability to fly already. But Gohan didn't come, she waited for a moment before calling out to him. However, he didn't answer her. She then began to worry, calling out his name while flying around the area and trying to sense out his Ki.

Little did she know, but Gohan was being chased by a huge tyrannosaurus rex. The beast was bigger than all of the other dino's Gohan and Arale had encountered and easily dealt with. But Gohan was scared, not only because of the creature's size, but because his mother was not there with him to encourage him to fight on. The young boy quickly found himself backed against a mountain by the beast. Who snarled and growled at him.

That was when Arale came down to the ground, calling out for Gohan to fight. But Gohan froze, Arale ran towards the two as she cried out a no as the dinosaur tired to eat Gohan. Before being kicked away by a mysterious figure. Arale skidded to a stop as she saw Piccolo standing before the beast. The T-rex snarled at Piccolo before the Namekian blasted it to dust with a simple Ki Blast. Arale then ran up to Gohan, embracing him in a hug and trying to calm him down. That was when Piccolo approached her. She instantly turned around to face him while picking up Gohan, holding him close.

"You're welcome," Piccolo said.

"Thank you, Piccolo." Arale replied, surprised she even found herself thanking Piccolo. "But I had that under control." Arale added quickly.

"I'm sure you did."

"Hey, wait a minute. How did you know Gohan was in trouble?"

"With my ears I can hear just about everything on the whole planet. Maybe even more than that."

"Okay, but how did you get here just as quickly as me?" Arale then gasped as Piccolo gulped. "You've been spying on us, haven't you?"

"Hey, I wouldn't put it like that. I have been training, but I've been nearby in case of something happening."

"In case of what happening? Besides, don't you hate me? Why are you all of a sudden trying to help me?"

Piccolo sighed, "it's ... a long story."

"Well, I've got the time for one." Arale replied bitterly.

"Okay, okay, look, before the World Martial Arts Tournament I wanted revenge on you and Goku for killing my father. But, after fighting you and finding I was incapable of defeating you. Added on to it were those threats you made towards me. It shook me to my core. I was always thinking I was superior to every other being on this planet and that my father's original defeat was a fluke. But, after the battle I realized how wrong I truly was. From then on I knew there were people stronger than me, way stronger than me. So, I did try to train to surpass you for a little bit. Before I quickly realized that, that would take a lot longer than I had originally wanted it to."

"So ... what did you do?" Asked Arale as Gohan peered over to Piccolo.

"Just trained to surpass my limits, nothing else. I came to the realization that this planet will never be mine again. Not as long as you are alive. I even tried to use the Dragon Balls to wish away your strength. But that wish had already been granted by my father. So I couldn't do it. All I want now is to forget the past. We have a threat bigger than both of us coming soon. Why should we be fighting each other, instead of them?"

Arale peered at the ground, thinking about what Piccolo was saying. "Are you ... suggesting we form ... an alliance?" She asked, looking back up at him.

Piccolo nodded, "that's exactly what I want."

"I don't know, you've done so much to me. You almost killed me and my husband."

"But that was my father, not me. Besides I did just save your son from that beast."

"Same difference, you're the spitting image of that monster who wanted the same thing before I humbled you."

"Look, I'm not saying I'm gonna be a saint or anything. But I do want to try and do something different with my life."

"You mean whatever won't get you killed by me, correct?"

"That ... might have something to do with it."

"You're a really selfish guy, you know that?"

"I didn't say I was perfect, Arale." Piccolo smirked.

Arale rolled her eyes, "well we're done for training today anyhow. So, if you come back tomorrow, we'll see if I decide on forming that alliance with you. But don't get your hopes up."

Piccolo nodded, "I understand, Arale."

"Well then, see you tomorrow, Piccolo." Arale replied as he flew away with Gohan in her arms.

Piccolo smirked as he watched them, "you too, Arale."

Chapter Text

An entire year had passed during the Z Fighters training. Goku and Raditz had by now long since arrived at King Kai's planet, he was hesitant at first to train Radiz due to his evil past. But after some jokes and a little convincing from Goku, King Kai allowed him to train with them. The Saiyan brother's were learning the Kaioken, while Goku was also being taught the Spirit Bomb as Raditz was not pure of heart.

The two talked endlessly about their pasts when they weren't training. Raditz told Goku about their parents and planet, but Goku didn't seem to care much. Raditz just assumed he was insulted to be related to a couple of brutes. Goku would also tell Raditz about his time on Earth, with the stories interesting Raditz greatly. The two brother's, despite so much time lost, were starting to become closer than ever before. If only by a little bit.

...

On Earth, Arale and Gohan continued to train with Piccolo. Piccolo was amazed, his power was growing greatly, to the point he was confident that the group could defeat the Saiyans when they arrived. Which was coming closer than they thought. As two pods crashed down into East City, all of the Z Fighters were instantly on guard as they felt the power of the two individuals within the pods.

"Th-they're here!" Cried Piccolo as Arale and Gohan felt the powers as well.

"It's okay, we can take them." Arale said confidently as Piccolo nodded.

"Yeah, let's hope." Piccolo replied.

The trio then flew off into the distance, before they felt a massive explosion of Ki coming from East City. There a huge explosion could be seen in the distance.

"They ... they just blew up the whole city!" Cried Arale.

"M-mommy, I-I'm scared." Said Gohan.

Arale was scared too, scared for her son's wellbeing. Despite the fact she knew her son was ready to fight, she worried something bad would happen to him. Piccolo could see this, causing him to put a hand on her arm.

"It's okay, Arale. Gohan will be alright. Trust me."

Arale nodded, "yeah, he's been preparing for this for a year." Arale then looked down to her young son. "You can do this honey, trust me."

Gohan nodded, "I-I'll do my b-best mommy." Gohan replied as Arale smiled down to him.

...

Back in East City, Vegeta and Nappa were looking over the destruction caused by Nappa. A crater was where the city once stood, with the Saiyans hovering over it.

"Good job, Nappa, but just dial it back next time. We still want to sell this planet at a high price."

"O-oh, yeah. Sorry, Vegeta." Replied Nappa, "I just can't help it when I'm dealing with weaklings like these humans. That Kakarot better be strong, considering this planets people weren't already wiped out."

Vegeta nodded, "indeed, but even if he isn't then we can still sell the planet." Vegeta smirked as Nappa nodded. Vegeta then clicked his scouter, before detecting the power levels of the Z Fighters. "Nappa, there's some strong powers due west, Kakarot must be one of those. Let's go that way."

"Right," nodded Nappa as the two flew towards the direction of the Z Fighters.

...

"They're coming this way!" Cried Piccolo.

"Then we'll stop here," replied Arale as she and Gohan flew down to an abandoned wasteland, followed by Piccolo.

Soon, one by one the rest of the humans who had trained under Kami eventually met up with them. Krillin, then Yamcha, and finally Tien and Chiaotzu.

"It's good to see you guys," said Arale.

"You as well," replied Yamcha.

"Where's Goku?" Asked Tien.

"He's still probably in Otherworld with Raditz," replied Piccolo, as he crossed his arms.

"S-so we'll have to fight these guys without him!?" Cried Krillin.

"Calm yourself, Krillin. We can handle them, trust me." Tien said.

"Yeah, chill out dude. We'll be fine." Added Yamcha as Krillin wiped the sweat off of his brow.

Then, Vegeta and Nappa arrived. After destroying a couple of military jets and tanks, they flew down to the group. Landing in front of them. TV cameras from news stations tried to get footage of them in helicopters, before Nappa blasted them out of the sky. Surprising the group.

"Hey! You didn't need to do that!" Cried Arale.

Nappa just smirked, "they were in the way."

"You bastard." Arale replied.

Nappa glared, "hey, you better watch your mouth little girl!" He cried.

"Nappa!" Boomed Vegeta, "calm yourself, there's something off about this girl and I don't want you jumping into battle with her just yet."

"What!?" Pondered Nappa, "I don't sense anything."

"Just send the Saibamen after them, in order to gage their power."

"Understood," smirked Nappa as he began to plant green seeds into the ground.

"Now then, Earthlings, where is Kakarot and Raditz?" Vegeta asked, crossing his arms.

"They're currently away right now," replied Piccolo. "They'll be back soon."

"Well too bad, I'm not waiting around for them." Smirked Vegeta as the seeds Nappa planted began sprouting creatures, much to the Z Fighters horror.

...

"Dad! We can't just sit around and do nothing!" Cried the voice of Chichi to her father, the Ox King.

"But what can we do? They just destroyed an entire city." Replied Ox.

"I don't care, once they take out King Furry, we'll be next. I have to stop them!" Chichi cried before hurrying away to her red hover cruiser.

"Chichi, wait!" Cried Ox, but to no avail as Chichi flew away and towards the last known location of the Saiyans.

...

Back at the battlefield, the six Saibamen had fully grown and were ready to battle. Growling and screeching at the Z Fighters.

"Attack!" Cried Nappa as the Saibamen did just as they were ordered. All choosing a Z Fighter to attack, but knowing Chiaotzu and Gohan were too weak to fight them. Arale and Tien stepped in, easily killing their Saibamen with a single blow each.

"Mhm, these Earthlings have some skill." Thought Vegeta as Krillin killed two more Saibamen.

Yamcha began to fight with another one, beating it until it was unconsious.

"Yeah! Yamcha strikes again!" Cried Yamcha before the Saibamen jumped onto his back and wrapped its arms and legs around him.

"Yamcha!" Cried Arale as the group turned just in time to see Yamcha being blown up by the Saibamen.

He fell to the ground, dead. As the group stared on in horror, not believing the fact that their close friend was now dead.

"Y-Yamacha!" Screamed Krillin.

Even as far away as Kame House, Yamcha's death was felt. With Bulma, Roshi, Turtle, Yajirobe, and Baba watching the fight from Baba's crystal ball. Bulma began to weep as she saw Yamcha's dead body on the crystal ball.

"Y-you'll pay for that!" Cried Arale as her rage began to boil.

"Come and get some," smirked Nappa as Arale charged at him.

"Mom!" Cried Gohan as a Saibamen rushed towards Arale, but she silently blew him to pieces with a blue Ki Blast.

She then engaged with Nappa, who tried to fight back but was unable to even stand a miniscule chance against Arale. His blows were too weak and his speed was too slow. As Arale was able to easily block all of Nappa's blows with no difficulty. Arale then kicked him away, he crashed into a nearby rock canyon, with it coming down on top of him. Nappa then growled as he stood up, blowing the canyon away as his Ki flared up.

"I won't be beaten by this girl!" He roared as he charged back at Arale.

"Nappa, stop!" Cried Vegeta.

Nappa stopped dead in his tracks, stunned at Vegeta's words.

"Hey, why not!?"

"This girl is too powerful for you, I shall deal with her. You deal with the others."

Nappa gritted his teeth, before smirking. "Good luck, girly. Vegeta is the prince of all Saiyans and has lost to no one."

"Well, I'm glad to be breaking that winning streak." Arale replied, cracking her knuckles as Vegeta glared.

"Scum, prepare to die!" Vegeta roared as he and Arale charged at each other.

Nappa then turned his attention to the remaining Z Fighters. Smirking wickedly at them.

"Come on, then!" He roared, "who wants to go first?"

Piccolo stepped forwards, "you'll be dealing with me." He said, taking off his weighted clothing.

"Okay then, Namekian." Nappa replied as Piccolo perked up.

"Namekian? What's a Namekian?" He asked.

"You don't know? They're those toad people from Planet Namek, I've never actually killed one before. So I'm gonna enjoy this." Nappa sneered, "but first, we should get rid of the small fry."

Nappa then fired a yellow mouth beam, Tien, Chiaotzu, and Krillin managed to move out of the way in time. But Gohan was petrified in fear, Piccolo noticed this, calling out for him to move but he didn't. Arale also noticed Gohan's fear too.

"Gohan! Move!" She cried as the beam neared Gohan.

Piccolo then suddenly jumped in front of him last minute. Tanking the full force of the blast. Arale and everyone else were in shock at the sight, that Piccolo of all people would try and protect this boy. The blast then dissipated, as Piccolo stood firm. Some damage here and there, but overall he was still in fighting condition. His training with Arale certainly paid off.

"What!?" Cried Nappa.

"Now ... its my turn." Piccolo smirked, as he fired his own mouth beam at Nappa. A beam which consumed him entirely, and killed him on the spot.

Vegeta's eyes widened at the sight, Nappa may have been weaker than him but he was by no means weak. These Earthlings were something else, no wonder Raditz lost to them. It all made sense to him now. Vegeta now knew he couldn't hold back against them anymore, as he formed an Artificial Moon in his palm, before throwing it into the sky.

"Burst!" He cried as the ball exploded, and formed a small moon.

Vegeta looked directly at the moon, before he began to grow and his skin began to grow fur. His armor expanded as he transformed into a Great Ape. He smashed his feet onto the ground, causing a massive shockwave that startled the Z Fighters.

"Chiaotzu! Get Gohan out of here now!" Cried Tien, "you're not strong enough to battle this."

Chiaotzu was disappointed, but agreed. Picking up Gohan and flying away with him.

"Stay safe, Tien!" He cried as he left the battle zone.

"What do we do against this?" Cried Krillin.

"I-I don't know," replied Piccolo.

Vegeta then began to stomp around and blast the ground, not trying to blow up the planet but instead trying to kill the Z Fighters. They were able to dodge these attacks for the most part, except for Krillin, who was going to be stepped on by Vegeta. Before being pushed out of the way by Tien, who got crushed as a result.

"Tien!" Cried Krillin as Tien was a bloody mass on the ground.

"You bastard!" Roared Arale as she blasted Vegeta in the eye.

He roared in pain as he gripped his bleeding left eye. Suddenly, a huge blue Ki Blast struck Vegeta in the chest. Knocking him onto his back, the group turned to see who had fired. There stood Goku and Raditz. With Raditz now wearing a modified version of his Saiyan armor on top, with an orange Gi for his pants.

"Goku!" Cried Arale as she flew down to him.

"Hey, honey. Hope we're not too late." Goku smiled.

"No, you're right on time. Do you think you have an answer for this?" Arale pointed to Vegeta, as he tried to stand back up.

"Possibly, maybe the Spirit Bomb could help."

"We'll keep him busy then, Kakarot." Replied Raditz, "just hurry up."

"Right," nodded Goku as he began charging up his Spirit Bomb.

"Let's do it then," said Arale as Raditz held his hand out in front of her.

"No, you've done your part. I'll deal with him myself." Raditz smirked.

"Fine by me," Arale replied, "knock yourself out."

"Oh, I'm going to enjoy this." Raditz smirked as he cracked his knuckles, "I won't even need this, but why not make him suffer? Kaioken!" He roared, with a red aura appearing around his body.

Raditz then charged at Vegeta, zipping around him at lightning fast speeds and landing blow after blow onto his body. To the point that Vegeta couldn't fight back. Goku held his hands up, continuing to charge the spirit bomb as he gathered energy from all of his friends. With Arale and his own being more than enough to give him power for the Spirit Bomb.

"It's ready!" He cried, "Raditz back off!" Goku cried as he condensed the Spirit Bomb into his hand before throwing it at Vegeta.

"See you in hell," laughed Raditz as he flew away from Vegeta, who was instantly struck by the Spirit Bomb.

With it completely enveloping him in a white glow, before it dissipated. Leaving Vegeta on the ground, critically injured and back in base form. Seemingly killed.

"We did it!" Cried Arale.

"Yeah!" Screamed the Z Fighters as they all grouped back up with Goku.

"I-I won't be done yet." Vegeta said to himself as he opened his only remaining eye, seeing the Z Fighters celebrating. "I-I'll be back for you all." He groaned as he called for his space pod to come to him. It crashed next to him within a few moments, before Vegeta crawled inside and ascended into the air.

"It's Vegeta! He's getting away!" Cried Raditz.

"Leave him," replied Goku.

"What!?" Cried Arale, "why?"

"He'll probably be dead anyway, besides, we can always beat him if he comes back."

"That's ... very true, fine then." Replied Arale. "Now we just have to revive Tien and Yamcha."

Goku perked up, "Tien and Yamcha died?" He asked.

"Yes," replied Piccolo.

"Well then, let's go gather the Dragon Balls!" Cried Goku.

Suddenly, a red hover cruiser arrived at the battle zone. Carrying the Ox princess, Chichi.

"Where is he!? Where are those Saiyans!?" Chichi cried.

"Um ... we defeated them all," said Krillin.

"Wh-who are you?" Asked Raditz.

"I'm Chichi, the Ox princess. Who are you?"

"I'm Radtiz, Kakarot's brother." He growled.

"Oh, you mean Goku's brother?"

"Um ... yes," replied Raditz, blushing slightly.

"Wait, how did you even find us out here?" Arale asked.

"Simple, I heard about it on the news and decided to help out since after the Saiyans took out King Furry, my kingdom would be next."

"Makes sense," replied Krillin.

"Well, you're welcome to join us on our Dragon Ball Hunt. We're going to use them to revive our friends and everyone else killed by Vegeta and Nappa."

Chichi's eyes widened, "wait! You can revive people!?"

"Yes," replied Goku bluntly. "With the Dragon Balls we can."

"A-alrighty then, sure, I'll help you guys out." Chichi replied, clearly bewildered by the powers she didn't understand.

...

By the end of the day the group had gathered the Dragon Balls, summoning Shenron at Kame House.

"Thank you, Piccolo." Said Arale as they all watched Shenron appeared from the balls. "For saving Gohan's life."

"Oh, um ... you're welcome, Arale."

Arale smiled before lightly patting him on the back.

"Speak your wish!" Boomed Shenron as Goku stepped forwards.

"Shenron! Can you revive all of those who were killed by Vegeta and Nappa!?" He cried.

Shenron's eyes glowed red, "your wish has been granted, farewell."

Shenron then disappeared in a bright yellow light before the Dragon Balls scattered around the globe.

Tien and Yamcha were already given new bodies by King Yemma and thus returned to Earth. There everyone rejoiced and celebrated a victory against the Saiyans. As such peace returned to Earth, with the Z Fighters going about their daily lives. Although Chichi had no become closer with the group, especially with Raditz.

...

Off in deep space, Vegeta sat in his space pod. Nearly dead, with the only thing keeping him going being his sheer willpower.

"Th-those Earth germs, I-I'll return to them e-eventually, a-and I'll k-k-kill them all." Vegeta gasped as he fell unconscious.

Chapter Text

Although the battle against the Saiyan invaders had been won in the Earthlings favor. Vegeta, the leader and strongest of the evil Saiyans, was still alive, although barely. He flew through space, shifting in and out of consciousness as he continued back to the closest Frieza Force base. His space pod slammed down onto the planet, as he saw a pair of Frieza Force soldiers rip him from his pod and carry him to a healing tank.

He sat nude in the silver tube, floating in light blue liquid with a breathing mask over his mouth and nose. An alien Frieza Force medic was making sure the adjustments inside of the tank were perfect for his healing. In a few hours his healing would be complete, but Vegeta didn't care about his condition. He only cared about Kakarot, Raditz, and that girl. That purple haired demon who helped to turn him into this mess.

...

Hours later, Vegeta stepped out of the healing tank. Before putting on some new all blue clothes, white boots, white gloves, and white armor. The doctor was yelling about how Vegeta shouldn't go out on another mission, but Vegeta ignored him and pushed him aside before leaving the medical ward. Vegeta headed down the silver hallways of the Frieza Force base, seeing the various grunts who eyed him suspiciously and then talked amongst themselves. Vegeta couldn't care less about their conversations, he was merely thinking out his next plan.

He had to get revenge on the Earthlings who put him here. That was all that mattered to him right now, he was much stronger than he was on Earth, at least ten or so times stronger by his estimation. But it wouldn't matter, those Earthlings were something else. If Vegeta was going to defeat them, he would need the power of a Super Saiyan. But how could he achieve such a legendary power under Frieza's nose? It seemed he would need to take Frieza out of the picture, but he was too weak to do that. Suddenly, a figure approached Vegeta from behind.

"Vegeta!" Cried the figure, as Vegeta turned and recognized him as Cui.

"What do you want, Cui?" Vegeta asked him.

"Just to let you know that while you were busy getting your butt whooped by weak Earthlings, Lord Frieza personally asked me to join him and his top men on a mission to Planet Namek. To gather the mystical Dragon Balls."

Vegeta's eyes widened as he remembered that the Earthlings had a Namekian with them, thus meaning that they had Dragon Balls too.

Vegeta then smirked, "you think your so special? You're just a low level grunt with an 18,000 battle power. Nothing when compared to true elites like me."

Cui chuckled, "oh, Vegeta. Only a brain-dead monkey such as yourself could think you're any stronger than me."

Vegeta then punched Cui in the face, blowing the back of his head open and shooting white blood, brain matter, and bones onto the floor behind Cui. The other soldiers looked on in fear as Vegeta retracted his fist.

"Is that not proof enough, Cui?" Vegeta smirked, before turning and leaving the area.

...

Vegeta had by now taken a space pod that was meant for Cui and arrived on Namek with the rest of Frieza's forces, although landed far enough away from them so that they would not notice his presence.

"Okay," Vegeta thought as he stepped out of the space pod. "My battle power should be sufficient enough to deal with Frieza's top generals, although Frieza himself will be a problem. As well as the Ginyu Force should he send them out."

Vegeta then flew off into the distance, sensing out the power levels at a nearby village. Figuring he had learned the ability from his time on Earth. The strongest of the power levels he sensed were far above any of the other ones in the area. He knew those had to be Dodoria, Zarbon, and Frieza. He quickly landed on a nearby cliff, over looking the village as Frieza's top grunts were being wiped out by the Namekian Warriors. Vegeta then saw Dodoria, Zarbon, and Frieza in front of the soldiers. With Zarbon holding two Dragon Balls under his arms and Dodoria holding one under his right arm.

"I can't rush in blindly, I have to take great care to not catch Frieza's attention." Vegeta thought, "it would be best to kill only either Zarbon or Dodoria before leaving the area. Anymore and Frieza himself might come after me." 

Vegeta then observed one of the Namekians, named Moori, firing a yellow finger beam at Dodoria's scouter. Vegeta instantly took this opportunity to fire a two fingered blast at Dodoria, instantly blowing him to pieces as Frieza, Zarbon, and Moori looking on in shock.

"Wow, I didn't think I put that much power into that attack." Moori thought, before Frieza glared at him and fired a eye laser at him.

Moori was fatally burnt by this attack, instantly crumpling to the ground, dead. As one of his kids, named Dende looked on in fear. As Dodoria had killed the other one, named Cargo.

"That fool, Dodoria." Said Zarbon, "getting killed by a weak toad of all things."

"Yes, it was very pathetic." Smirked Frieza, "it doesn't matter though, Orlen!"

"Yes, Lord Frieza!" Called an orange skinned alien, saluting as he ran up to Frieza.

"Gather Zarbon's Dragon Ball's and take them back to the ship."

"Yes, sir!" He called, before Vegeta made his move.

He instantly snatched Dodoria's Dragon Ball, before blasting at Orlen. Instantly killing him with the blue Ki Blast. Vegeta then raced away into the distance, as Zarbon stared on in shock and Frieza glared.

"What are you waiting for, Zarbon!?" Cried Frieza. "Go get him!"

"Y-yes, sir!" Called Zarbon before he set his Dragon Balls down and rushed after Vegeta.

Vegeta was more than happy with himself, he had killed one of Frieza's top generals as well as taking one of his Dragon Balls. Vegeta then sensed Zarbon flying right behind him, he smirked.

"One general down, another one to go." Vegeta said to himself as he flew down to the ground, with Zarbon landing in front of him.

"Vegeta? What do you think you are doing!?" Zarbon cried.

"What does it look like? I'm taking Frieza out of the picture."

Zarbon chuckled, "you fool, only in your dreams could you overthrow Frieza."

"And only in your dreams could you beat me." Vegeta smirked as Zarbon charged at him.

Vegeta didn't even dodge Zarbon's blows, merely taking them to the face and chest with no damage. Before grabbing Zarbon's arm, after he punched Vegeta in the face again. Vegeta then twisted his arm, breaking it and causing Zarbon to cry out in pain as Vegeta let him go.

"H-how could you ..." Zarbon stammered as he grabbed his arm.

"My trip to Earth may have ended in my defeat, but it gave me a gift as a result."

Zarbon then glared at Vegeta, "we'll see that about that." Zarbon then bulked up, transforming into a taller, buffer, and more muscular appearance.

Zarbon then roared at Vegeta, charging at him. But Vegeta easily dodged the blows, before he then punched a hole into Zarbon's chest. Causing him to cough up purple blood as Vegeta smirked.

"Goodbye!" He cried, as Zarbon's eyes widened.

"N-no, wait, Vegeta!" Zarbon cried, but it was too late as Vegeta blasted a hole through his back.

Zarbon then went flying back, crashing onto the ground, dead. Vegeta smirked proudly to himself, what a day it had been for the prince.

"Now, onto the other Dragon Balls." Vegeta smirked, as he flew away from the scene.

Chapter Text

Vegeta had now spent the past few hours gathering five of the seven Dragon Balls. With Frieza's top men out of the way, he had gone uncontested. Slaughtering countless Namekian villages in search of the Dragon Balls, keeping them hidden in a deep lake at the center of the planet. Frieza though, had begun to get angry at the fact that neither Zarbon had returned nor had he gathered any of the Dragon Balls. He looked out of his spaceship window, holding an empty wine glass in his hand.

"That fool, Zarbon." Frieza said to himself. "He still has not returned, which means he has either deserted me or ... he was killed by the one whose been taking my Dragon Balls." Frieza then clicked a button on his s\hips control console, before a soldier soon entered into his chambers.

"Lord Frieza," saluted Appule. "You called, sir?"

"Yes, tell me how is Namole doing on gathering the Dragon Balls?"

"Sir, Namole has reported that he and his men have been unsuccessful at gathering any of the Dragon Balls. As they seem to be a few steps behind whoever is taking them."

"Dammit, Appule: call the Ginyu Force here and order Namole to return to base!"

"Yes, sir. Right away, sir." Appule saluted, before exiting Frieza's chambers.

...

About an hour had passed, and Vegeta was now down to his second to last Dragon Ball. He had found himself at a lone Namekian house on a cliff, surprised that he had not found another village in awhile. He landed on the cliff, just as the door to the house opened and a Namekian warrior stepped outside. Vegeta could tell that this warrior was much more powerful than any he had come across before.

"Leave now, invader." The Namekian spoke, "or else your life will end here."

"How are you so strong?" Asked Vegeta, "you're much more powerful then the other Namekians I've slaughtered." He smirked as the warrior gritted his teeth at Vegeta.

"I'm the grand elders personal bodyguard, named Nail. I have to be this strong to protect him."

"Yeah, well, all I want is your Dragon Ball if you have any. Or maybe the location of the next one."

Nail glared at Vegeta, "I would never willingly give you any Dragon Ball, scum."

Vegeta huffed, "then I guess you'll have to be wiped out by Frieza."

"Frieza?"

"Oh, have you not heard? Frieza is on Namek, and I am trying to use the Dragon Balls to wish for immortality so I can defeat him. Because if he gets immortality first, then he'll surely kill us both, and then blow up the planet. Which personally speaking, blowing up the planet is not on my to do list."

Nail peered down at the ground for a moment, before looking back up at Vegeta.

"I will have to discuss this with the grand elder."

Vegeta nodded, before crossing his arms and leaning against the house. Just as Nail entered back into the house. A few minutes passed before he would emerge from the house. Looking at stern as ever.

"Grand Elder Guru said that you will be allowed to have the Dragon Ball."

"Excellent," Vegeta smirked.

"As well as have your potential unlocked, so that you may better combat Frieza."

"Good," Vegeta nodded, before freezing. "Oh, shit."

"What is it?"

"T-the Ginyu Force are here!" Vegeta cried.

"Who are the Ginyu Force?"

"They're an elite death squad of Frieza's, we have to hurry if we're going to defeat Frieza. Because right at this moment we're both nothing compared to their top members, and to they're captain."

Nail nodded, "then come inside."

Vegeta hurried inside the house, followed by Nail. He was surprised to see the huge form of the grand elder, Guru.

"So, you are Vegeta?" Asked Guru.

"Yeah, and you must be Guru, correct?"

"Yes, I am."

"Well, can you hurry up and unlock my potential? We're gonna need it to beat Frieza's top men and Frieza himself."

Nail glared at Vegeta, he wanted to speak up but kept silent as it was all according to Guru's plan.

"Yes, come over here and let me unlock it." Vegeta walked over to the side of Guru, before Guru placed a hand on his head. A white glow appeared around Vegeta as he felt his battle power skyrocket. As Vegeta took in his massive power growth, it was suddenly all over with. "Wow ... you certainly have a lot of potential, Vegeta. Much more than I expected."

"But will it be enough to defeat Frieza?" Vegeta asked, as he looked over himself.

"I am not sure, but it will be enough to defeat Frieza's top men, eventually." Guru replied.

"What do you mean 'eventually'?" Asked Vegeta.

"Well, you're potential will become available to you overtime. Right now you might be able to deal with the weaker members of Frieza's top minions, but not the strongest just yet. So, you'll have to stay alive long enough to be able to fight them. Something Nail can help you with."

"Good, then let's go, Nail. We have some grunts to kill." Vegeta told Nail, as he took Guru's Dragon Ball.

"Goodbye, Grand Elder." Nail said to Guru, before the two left the house and flew away into the distance.

"Goodbye, my son." Guru said somberly.

...

The Ginyu Force had touched down on the planet, and introduced themselves to Frieza outside of his ship after doing some poses.

"Your um ... poses are still excellent, Captain." Frieza said, blushing madly at the scene.

"Thank you, Lord Frieza." Ginyu smirked, "now, what is it you want us to do, sir?"

"Someone has been stealing my Dragon Balls, I want you five to eliminate whoever is doing this and get them back so I can make my wish."

"Yes, sir!" Cried Ginyu, "the Ginyu Force will have them back to you by the end of the day!"

"Excellent," Frieza smirked, before the Ginyu Force set off. Just as Namole arrived.

"Lord Frieza," Namole saluted, "I just saw the Ginyu Force leave, what is going on?"

But Frieza didn't answer, he only looked at Namole before blasting him to dust with an eye beam.

...

Vegeta and Nail had dropped off their newest Dragon Ball, before continuing on their set path to meet the Ginyu Force. They met the Special Forces unit in an abandoned area, far from both Frieza and any other Namekian villages.

"Ah, Vegeta. I should've known a monkey such as yourself would betray Frieza like this." Ginyu smirked.

"But we didn't think you'd team up with a toad to do so." Laughed Burter.

"Yeah, the great prince getting help from a worthless Namekian." Chuckled Guldo.

Vegeta smirked, "you all think I am so weak, but I've already killed Zarbon and Dodoria and I'm gunning for Frieza next. So just stand down and I might spare your worthless lives."

The entire Ginyu Force laughed in unison, much to Vegeta's distain.

"Oh, Vegeta. You're still too weak to combat us," replied Jeice.

"Yes, men: deal with Vegeta and this toad yourselves. He isn't even worth my time." Ginyu commanded.

"Yes, Captain!" Cried the Ginyu Force before they began playing rock paper scissors to decide who would first fight Vegeta and Nail. The winner came out to be Guldo, which worried Vegeta as he knew of the abilities Guldo was capable of.

"Alright, Vegeta. Seems your worthless ape life ends today, at the hands of ... Guld-" Guldo cried, before Vegeta appeared behind him in a flash.

Guldo's head then rolled off of his body and to the ground, surprising the Ginyu Force. Vegeta then turned around and blasted the remains of Guldo into ash, before turning and smirking at the Ginyu Force.

"Who's next?" He sneered.

"Um ... Recoome, you can have dibs." Jeice said.

"Oh, yeah!" He cried. "Now you're dead, Vegeta."

"Are you gonna need my help with this one?" Asked Nail.

"Wouldn't mind it," Vegeta replied as Recoome charged at them.

The group engaged in a brutal fist fight, with Vegeta and Nail managing to deal significant damage to Recoome. Guru was right, Vegeta's battle power was growing steadily. Allowing him to even out against Recoome. Especially with his mid-battle growth that his natural Saiyan instincts gave him. Recoome then punched Nail back, before Vegeta blasted Recoome back. Leaving a bloody burn mark on the soldiers chest, visually displaying to the rest of the Ginyu Force Vegeta's rapid growth in power.

"Hey, you're gonna pay for that!" Cried Recoome as Vegeta smirked.

"Make me," Vegeta chuckled as Recoome planted his feet and opened his mouth.

"Eraser ..." Vegeta then fired a Ki Blast into Recoome's mouth, blowing his head up and killing him on the spot. As he crumpled face first to the ground.

"Okay, now things are getting way too interesting." Said Burter.

"Yeah, how could Vegeta be this strong?" Added Jeice.

"Seems I'll have to step in," said Ginyu. "Jeice and Burter, deal with the toad."

"Yes, sir." Smirked the two as they charged at Nail while Ginyu charged at Vegeta.

Vegeta was now worried, he had not anticipated Ginyu to step in so soon. His battle power had only just risen to Burter's level, meaning he was nowhere near in fighting condition to battle Ginyu, much less defeat him. Nail was also nowhere near the battle power of Burter and Jeice, meaning he as well as was getting beaten around by the two. Both Vegeta and Nail became bloody and bruised messes on the ground.

"N-no, I-I can't let it end like this." Vegeta thought, as he crawled on the ground. "I came so close, I-I won't let it end this way!" Vegeta roared, as his eyes turned white and a yellow aura appeared around him.

"What the!?" Cried Ginyu as Burter, Jeice, and Nail looked over to him.

Vegeta said nothing in return, only punching a hole through Ginyu's chest. Ginyu coughed up blood, before Vegeta shot his arm up, slicing the top half of Ginyu in two. The captain crumpled to the ground, as Vegeta turnd his attention to Burter and Jeice.

"Goodbye," He smirked, before firing a blue Ki Blast at the two. Turning the top halves of their bodies into dust, and putting an end to the Ginyu Force for good.

Vegeta then calmed down, his aura disappearing as the pain of his wounds set in.

"What ... was that?" Asked Nail.

"I ... I think that was the power of a Super Saiyan." Vegeta replied, "or at least a False Super Saiyan, as the power didn't feel complete."

"Th-that power ... was higher than Frieza right now. I-if you could tap into that again, he'd be done for."

Vegeta nodded, "yeah, I know. But I'm too injured right now to try again. We have to make my wish for immortality right now! Or else it'll all be for not."

Nail nodded, "right, let's move then!" He cried as the two flew away, injured, but still able to fly.

...

Meanwhile, Frieza was waiting at his ship. Hoping to hear word from the Ginyu Force, on the new scouters they had brought him. But he had received nothing, instead he just got static.

"Ugh! Where are they at!?" Frieza cried, "there's no way they could be dead. There's just no way." Frieza then bawled a fist, "I guess I'll have to gather the Dragon Balls myself."

Frieza then blasted a hole through his ships window, flying into the distance in search of the magic Dragon Balls.

...

As they flew, Vegeta and Nail felt Frieza's power skyrocket for a brief moment. Signaling he was pissed beyond belief.

"Are we almost there!?" Vegeta cried, "we have to hurry if we're going to get me my wish!"

"Yes, just be patient." Nail replied as the two flew right by a Namekian village. "Go down, right here!"

The two then descended, with the villagers surprised at the sight of the two.

"Nail, are you alright?" Asked one of the Namekians. "What happened?"

"We have no time, we just need your Dragon Ball. Please, its urgent, an evil force is here on Namek."

The village elder quickly handed Nail their Dragon Ball, before Vegeta flew away. With Nail waving goodbye before following after him. They flew as fast as they could, hoping to get Vegeta's wish before Frieza could stop them. Their encounter with the Ginyu Force proved to Nail that this was the best option. Even if Vegeta was evil and had killed hundreds of his siblings, he was the only chance Namek had to survive.

They could feel Frieza's Ki nearby, they were almost close to their goal. Only a few more miles, and then Namek would hopefully be saved. They just needed more time. Just as their worry was at an all time high, they finally arrived at their destination. Nail threw the Dragon Ball to the ground, as Vegeta dove into the lake to gather the rest. He quickly threw them up to the surface, before he swam to dry land as Nail summoned the dragon. The balls glowed, before the giant and buff dragon, Porunga, was summoned.

"I am the eternal dragon," Said Porunga, "speak your wishes."

"Wishes?" Asked Vegeta, "how many do I get?"

"You get three, so choose wisely." Nail replied.

"Alright, Dragon: make me immortal!" Vegeta cried, but Porunga stayed silent. "Why isn't he granting my wish?"

"You need to talk to him in Namekian," Nail told him.

"Wait ... how can he speak English, but not understand it?" Asked Vegeta. "That's just freaking stupid!"

"Whatever, do you want that to be your wish?"

"Yes, now hurry up!" Boomed Vegeta.

Nail rolled his eyes, before telling the dragon Vegeta's wish. Or so he thought, as Nail's wording wasn't exactly the same as Vegeta's. He was immortal, but not in the way he wanted. After Nail spoke his wish, Porunga's eyes glowed, before Vegeta's wounds began healing.

"Haha!" Vegeta cried, "yes! I am finally immortal!"

"Do you have any other wishes?" Nail asked.

"Nope, Frieza is mine to fight alone. I could revive Nappa, but I don't need that weakling." Vegeta sneered.

"Fine," replied Nail before he told Porunga in Namekian that they didn't need anymore wishes.

"I am finished here then," Porunga said, before disappearing in a yellow light with the Dragon Balls scattering around Namek soon after.

"Vegeta, do you know what you have done!?" Cried the voice of Frieza.

Vegeta and Nail looked over to him, as he stood on a nearby cliff. Gritted teeth like a wild animal, as he glared at the two.

"Yeah, I wished to become immortal. Now no one, not even you, can stop me." Vegeta smirked.

Frieza curled his knuckles, "you stupid monkey! You will pay for this!"

Frieza then fired a Death Beam through Nail's chest, he crumpled to the ground. Not dead, but just crippled and unconscious, his regeneration being the only thing keeping him alive.

"That was but a taste of what is going to happen to you." Frieza glared as Vegeta smirked confidently.

"Please, you don't scare me anymore, Frieza. As I am a Super Saiyan too!"

"A-a Super Saiyan?"

"Yes, how do you think I defeated Captain Ginyu?"

Frieza snarled, "even if you are a Super Saiyan, you cannot defeat me, Vegeta, and I am going to prove it to you." He glared.

Chapter Text

The two stared each other down, a palpable tension in the air as the two waited for the other to make the first move. It was then, that Vegeta charged at Frieza. The two clashed fists, Frieza was surprised at Vegeta's strength. But it was much less than his own at the current moment. Frieza then punched Vegeta in the gut, before slapping him across the face with his tail. The Saiyan went flying back into the dirt, as Frieza glared at him.

"Some Super Saiyan you are, Prince."

Vegeta spat into the dirt, "just you wait, you haven't seen anything yet!" Vegeta cried before he rushed back at Frieza.

He landed quick and precise blows onto the tyrant, something Frieza couldn't defend against. In an instant it seemed like Vegeta's strength had grown dramatically. Frieza then quickly blasted a beam through Vegeta's chest. Causing him to cough up blood as he flew back.

"Ignorant Saiyan maggot!" Frieza cried as Vegeta crashed onto the dirt on his back.

But in an instant, Vegeta's chest wound healed perfectly. As if nothing had happened. Frieza was shocked, realizing Vegeta was really immortal as he had claimed. Vegeta then stood up, before powering up. A white aura appearing around his body before he charged at Frieza again, his blows having more power and ferocity to them. Thus, he bashed Frieza around before sending him flying into a nearby hill. The hill crashed onto Frieza, creating a loud boom and a large dust cloud that surrounded the area. Frieza then rose from the hill, dirty, injured, and angry.

"You ... you ignorant monkey!" Frieza roared, a purple aura appearing around him as he began powering up.

The entire planet itself began to shake as Vegeta started to sweat, shocked at the power Frieza held. As things continued to shake, Frieza began to morph into a new form. His final form, a power that shocked Vegeta and anyone else nearby who could sense power levels. His new slick and slimmer look was a stark contrast to the previous form he had been in. Vegeta was in awe, as not only was Frieza's power off any conceivable scales. But Vegeta didn't even know he could transform in the first place.

Vegeta could survive whatever Frieza could throw at him, that much he knew for certain. However, he also knew he was in for a world of hurt to come his way. Before he could think of his next move, Frieza charged at him. Throwing a punch at him which pierced through his stomach. Blood spurted out from his back and from his mouth as Frieza snarled. He then smiled wickedly at Vegeta as he twisted his fist inside of Vegeta's stomach.

Vegeta cried out in anguish as Frieza continued to torment the prince. Frieza's eyes then lit up, before he fired pink Ki beams out of his eyes and through Vegeta's own. Blinding the prince and causing him great pain. Frieza then threw Vegeta to the side. He went flying into the nearby water, splashing into it, and sinking down to the rock floor below the water.

Frieza then wiped his blood soaked arm, cleaning the remains of Vegeta from it. He then slowly walked towards where he had thrown Vegeta. He knew he couldn't kill Vegeta, so he would make him suffer instead. If Vegeta dared to take his wish for eternal life away from him, then he would suffer the consequences. However, as Frieza neared the water a figure shot up from it. Creating a huge earth shaking blast and splashing a huge pillar of water everywhere.

Frieza was angered and soaked, he quickly turned to look up at the figure. Before he was blasted away by a purple Ki Blast. Frieza jumped around in a panic, as a hailstorm of Ki Blasts came his way. They destroyed the ground around Frieza as he finally laid eyes on Vegeta. His wounds now all healed and his stamina seemingly returned to normal as well. However, there was now a fire in his eyes. He wanted Frieza dead now more than anything and he wasn't going to rest until he saw that happen.

Frieza managed to find an opening in the shower of blasts. Flying up to Vegeta and punching him away, nearly breaking his neck in the process. How could he still be so weak? He had taken so much damage already. Vegeta then growled in anger, before turning to face Frieza again. He would not back down, not yet. He didn't care how weak he was right now when compared to Frieza, he would finish this tyrant off once and for all.

But as he prepared to fight back against Frieza, he was beaten around by the emperor. The fast and strong blows enough to keep Vegeta from fighting back. Frieza then grabbed ahold of Vegeta's head, begining to squeeze down on it as Vegeta opened his mouth to scream but nothing came out. Frieza prepared to squish Vegeta's head into mush, but Vegeta continued raising his battle power. Hoping to stop Frieza's attack, but it was slowly becoming obvious that it wouldn't be enough.

Vegeta then thought back to what had gotten him into this situation. Enslaved by Frieza for decades, sent to Earth, nearly dying there, then going rouge, and now fighting Frieza. Even as an immortal warrior, he still could not defeat Frieza. Was Frieza truly this powerful? His power seemed boundless and it was like Vegeta was just another weakling lagging behind him.

That was when Vegeta stopped, no, he wouldn't just take this lying down. He was the dammed Prince of all Saiyans. He was a warrior and he would not be beated around by this childish dictator anymore! He gripped Frieza's hands tightly, a golden glow forming around him. Nearly blinding Frieza in the process, causing him to loosen his grip on Vegeta's head.

"You thought you could make me, a prince, a slave to you forever!?" Vegeta cried out, "for too long I've suffered under you! But that all ends today!"

Vegeta then cried out, blasting Frieza away as a golden aura enveloped Vegeta. Frieza flew just a few feet away from Vegeta, shielding his eyes as the aura around Vegeta dissipated. Revealing Vegeta had ascended, becoming the legendary Super Saiyan. Frieza began to sweat, a Super Saiyan? No, it had to be a trick. The Super Saiyan was just a legend! But no, Vegeta had become the mythical warrior of gold. Vegeta's turquoise eyes pierced into Frieza's soul, his fists bawled up tight, and his hair blowing against the golden aura that surrounded him.

"Get down," Vegeta said to Frieza.

"H-huh?" Frieza asked.

"Get down, on your knees, and beg."

"B-b-beg?" Asked Frieza, "me?"

"Yes," Vegeta replied, "beg for mercy and I might grant it to you." Frieza began to chuckle nervously as Vegeta raised an eyebrow. "What's so funny?"

"No one and I mean no one tells me what to do! Least of all a worthless monkey!" Frieza screamed before he blasted Vegeta with a pink Ki Blast.

The blast completely enveloped Vegeta, before dissipating. However, when the blast cleared. Vegeta was still floating there, completely uninjured. Frieza froze in fear at the sight. He had taken a blast from him at nearly point blank range and survived. How could this be? Frieza knew he was immortal, but Vegeta could not have been strong enough to take an attack from Frieza. Or ... could he?

Vegeta then instantly appeared before Frieza, gut punching him, and causing him to spit up blood. Vegeta then round house kicked Frieza in the head and towards the ground below. He crashed into the dirt like a meteorite from space. His body mangled from said crash as he tried to sit up, only for Vegeta to knee him in the chest. Causing more blood to spit up from Frieza's mouth. Vegeta then got off of him and kicked him out of the crater. Frieza groaned in pain before turning and watching Vegeta float out of the crater and hover over him.

"Your empire ends here, Frieza." Vegeta told him, before sticking a hand out at him. "Any last words?"

"M-my ... my father, he will kill you for this." Frieza bellowed.

"Let him try, I'll kill him next anyway." Vegeta replied.

"Y-you have no idea who you're messing with."

"Neither did you."

Frieza grimaced in disgust as Vegeta charged up a small purple Ki Blast in his open palm. Frieza then thought, trying to find a solution to save himself. Then he came to an idea, blow up the planet. It might not kill Vegeta, but he would certainly freeze in space. Allowing Frieza to escape. However, before he could do anything. Vegeta fired his blast at him. Engulfing him in pink Ki. Frieza was then killed in one fell swoop, leaving the ground slightly burnt but otherwise leaving no evidence he was even alive to begin with.

Vegeta then returned to his base form, if not for his immortality he would've been tired out from the severe stamina drain that Super Saiyan gave him. That was when it hit Vegeta, he the Prince of all Saiyans had become the legendary Super Saiyan. Something no one else had done in centuries. But that didn't mean he was unbeatable, Frieza had an extended family and army out there in the universe. There were also loads of enemies of the Frieza Force out in the universe too. Who were going to be gunning for Frieza's place in the power hierarchy of the universe. Meaning that Vegeta had to continue to train to not only perfect Super Saiyan, but also get strong enough to take on King Cold, and anyone else who came his way.

That was when a familiar face appeared before Vegeta, Nail. He was now healed, though still weakened. He and Vegeta locked eyes for a moment, before Vegeta finally spoke.

"So, you're still alive, huh?" Vegeta asked.

"Yeah, some nearby Namekians healed me."

"Good for you," Vegeta replied sarcastically.

"So ... I assume you killed Frieza, huh?"

"Yes, but his father and army are still out there. So, sorry but I won't be staying on this planet any longer."

"Don't worry," chuckled Nail. "That won't be an issue."

Vegeta smirked, "right, you should know that since you helped me out so much. I won't destroy your planet, although that doesn't mean other's won't try to."

Nail nodded, before Vegeta waved and flew away from the scene. Heading for one of Frieza's spacecraft. He had a mission now and he was going to do whatever he could to achieve it. Then and only then would he get revenge on Kakarot, Arale, and everyone else from Earth who had defeated him in battle before. He was now a Super Saiyan, the ultimate force in the universe, and he was going to use his new power however he wished.
