"You off man, well, it should work this time." Krillin said, standing near to Goku. Trunks was being waved off, his inevitable leaving, Trunks was being sent of with Goku, Gohan, Vegeta, Tien, Yamcha, Tien, Chiaotzu, Seventeen, Bulma, Eighteen, Sixteen, Zangya, Piccolo, Dabura and myself. A day went by quick, give or take thirty-two hours, Trunks managed to learn 'Instant Transmission' with my and Goku's help, he quickly learned 'Aura Sphere', much easier than the teleportation technique.
Trunks stood, dressed in an outfit similar to the one her wore when he arrived, he kept his hair long though and got a better made sword for returning home into 'his' past. I relaxed, looking on while Trunks continued to speak to those here, small talk as he said goodbye to everyone slowly, Moving and mingling with everybody who would offer some small talk, those not speaking, Zangya, Sixteen and Eighteen, who were here in support though had few words, Piccolo having few words though he at least put in some effort to say goodbye. Dabura mocked Trunks in good humor, the ex-demon king became a good sparring partner to many of the fighters here, among them Trunks himself.
He and I already said our goodbyes hours ago, so he was taking his time with the others, the day would have remained a slow, relaxing day, I was well rested and felt stronger than ever, Vegeta was eyeing me every once in a while though he spoke to 'his' son, the future Trunks got a few words from him in private nearby when the sighting of six ships, massive PTO round, whatever names those saucer ships had, I've long forgotten and frankly couldn't give a shit. Laughing a sinister cackle, I rose a hand, an orb of purple Ki formed quickly, trembling with energy, bolstering in size when I paused. The others glanced upwards, watching as the ships touched down nearby to a city nearby, West City the nearest city of course was now in danger of being blown to pieces.
"You sense that Vegeta…" Goku said, glancing towards the ships in the background, Vegeta looking back to Trunks, speaking up.
"You are clear to leave… Trunks, will handle this, though if your eager to meet… your grandfather, I sense my father on board one of them ships… I wonder what that fool wants, alive. I also sense Nappa on board-" Yamcha interrupted, a bit of fear as he shouted heard in his tone.
"-N-Nappa-" Vegeta turned to him, sneering at him, ironic Yamcha remembers Nappa though of course, Yamcha has forgotten, he is much stronger than Nappa is, even if Yamcha has slowed down his training to instead play baseball professionally more.
"-You are much stronger than everyone I can sense on board those ships, my kingly father among them… though if they think I'll allow them to stay on Earth and turn it into a second version of the planet Tuffle… planet Vegeta, they have another thing coming." Vegeta took off, followed closely by Goku, Trunks… turned to look at his capsule with the time machine, in his hand before he too took off, I looked at the others who, also followed along, intrigued by possibly someone to fight. Vegeta can handle it of course, though I'd like to see if my 'biological' father also escaped hell, so I can put him back there if he is among them.
"It's not Frieza, is it?" Yamcha asked, Krillin shouted out, we were still flying over and a slower pace, Vegeta, Gohan, Goku and Gohan further ahead.
"You dunce, you heard Vegeta speaking to Trunk's man. It must be the Saiyan's. I'm not sure we're going to enjoy their company, but it isn't like they will be able to overpower anyone of us dude. They better not try anything though, I'm going to have flash backs seeing that bald guy here as well, what was that guy's name, Nappa. Didn't Winter kill him with her sword?" Krillin asked, I didn't see that battle, but I heard Winter done him in with her saber 'Solstice' which she maintained her skills with whenever she trained, even if she was now a busy C.E.O, she still trained at least her swordsmanship skills. Tien pointed, glancing downwards where we could make out the grouped-up ships, already touched down with Vegeta, Gohan, Goku and Trunks standing on a hill overlooking them. We came down as well, landing nearby with Piccolo speaking.
"Will follow your lead Vegeta, just know that if they threaten the delicate peace we've now just gotten back, family or not… I won't hesitate to send them back to hell." Piccolo glared ahead, as Vegeta turned to reply with a scowl.
"You think I don't know that green, I will inquire as to their business here and send them on their way… in a while, my father…" Vegeta quickly shook his head, not about to show any weakness, I kept quiet.
(Gohan-POV)
"There are heaps of them, just look, some even have my and Kron's hairstyle!" his father said aloud, seemingly excited at the prospect to have others here, and there were thousands he could make out already, they already spotted them too as many of them were wearing scouters they must have salvaged from their spacecrafts.
"Look at them… They alone could probably eat the whole planet out of food and board." Yamcha quipped, smirking at his words, his father laughing at his 'joke' while the rest of the Saiyan's here remained quiet, Krillin and Seventeen chuckled along with Goku.
'Must be Twenty thousand, possibly forty thousand of them from the looks of them, they continued to gather outside, some of the unruly ones decided to go after some of the civilians who were interested in seeing their ships, which you could mistake for the 'K.B.S Industries Corporation', the K being Kron's name, the B being Briefs and the S being Schnee. Vegeta stepped forwards and for a moment, the Saiyan's down below looked at him in awe, for through their lines the crowd parted as another figure, wearing a red cloak and having an almost exact appearance as Vegeta walked through, a regal look, the man was escorted by some more finally dressed Saiyan's than most of the others.
Gohan could see it, this was no doubt, Vegeta's father, all details apart from that mustache screamed 'Vegeta', Vegeta stepped forwards as the man who ought to be their king stopped in front of Vegeta. The man stepped forward, arms hung at his sides, Vegeta's folded in front of his chest as they stared at one another. Finally, Vegeta 'hmphed' staring intently at his kingly father with some hostility.
"Your intentions here, get them out and over with and I will consider my next step very thoroughly before I make my move. You can count me on that, Father. I also see you've gotten Nappa serving you again… keep him, the fool was an expert punching bag, but that was about it." Vegeta cackled, even while the man named Nappa growled out, though he made no move as to attack, Vegeta's father replied.
"Hmph, you've grown son… I see you've received me and our men; we've been on the run from Frieza… and his bastard father ever since we escaped from hell. That… dragon made our pathway out of here and as you can see, we all took it. I've come to inquire about seeing just where your loyalties are my son, along with finally seeing the man you've grown into. Are these your retainers my son, the warriors of this planet Earth are so… strange, I also recognize a few of them as Saiyan's. Are you the lord of this planet my son, so asking for permission to permanently settle this world… can proceed." King Vegeta said so dauntingly, his scowl on his face matched Vegeta's. Vegeta though finally made to reply… he started with a loud, laugh which made his father cough in surprise from his son… callous display to him and whatever perceived authority Vegeta's father was trying to strong arm him with.
Vegeta stepped forward slowly, a crawl really while igniting his Ki, his energy skyrocketing and in a flash, it pulse erratically while now flashing golden yellow, he continued to laugh even while there was gasps of awe from the onlookers in King Vegeta's camp, the King himself stepped backwards too in a rare show of what fear looked like on Vegeta's face, Gohan thinking the two were frighteningly alike in looks.
"You've just been revived father; it is good to see you though. I hadn't seen you since last I was taken by Frieza and made into a plaything, dancing to his tune while you and your… 'best men' couldn't even compare to that bastard's strength and in the end… you and your 'kingdoms' story was ended in but a blink. Do not come here and start ordering me around-" Vegeta gasped quietly, a grumble really, in shock when his Kingly father fell to his knees, interrupting Vegeta's thought process and his reply halted. King Vegeta spoke, as the other Saiyan's among the crowd also bent down as to bow to Vegeta, within his 'Super Saiyan' form, not even putting out much power and instead just using the added font of energy given to him by the transformation to intimidate them all.
"I've been dead- all of us here have been dead for a long while, but to think… to see the legendary Super Saiyan, among us- my own flesh and blood-" Vegeta stopped him there, chuckling as he turned to look backwards, pointing first and Kron, who stood back quietly. Vegeta then pointed to Gohan's own father, then to Gohan himself. Vegeta pointed towards the Trunks from the future before he stopped pointing though Raditz could be heard in the back grumbling.
"All those I've pointed to, are also 'Super Saiyan's'. Kron there is the second because technically his younger brother would have most definitely been the first, you might know him as Broly. Well, Kron is the eldest-" King Vegeta's gaze narrowed then he blinked in surprise, replying.
"I seem to recall you Kron, a brat who, without permission, took a attack ball and left, well… I have your traitorous father here. Nappa! Bring out that traitor, will dump him right here and the fool is out of our hands. What become of Broly, that Saiyan was born with a power level at ten thousand… a danger at the time to our home, I made the choice to kill him, out of self-preservation for both our family and our race. Vegeta… who is Kron to you?" King Vegeta asked, Gohan bet the man had seen some spark or something to those Vegeta had mentioned, a gesture which this king found strange that a prince would deter to someone not his equal. Before King Vegeta could reply, Nappa and another Saiyan dragged in that Paragus guy, Kron's and Broly's father. The man looked beaten but otherwise from that-
-A beam, small and piercing came out of a finger of Kron, firing straight through Paragaus's head, before the man could even get a word out as Kron stepped forward while the Saiyan's that came with their King were on guard, perhaps seeing that beam as something that Frieza would use. Kron had just killed his own father, which to Vegeta's smirk and King Vegeta's disbelief, had Kron explain himself while the others looked on in either confusion or on guard, Gohan and those in their group looked confused though most knew Paragus as a snake from the stories told of him.
"Why did you kill my prisoner- your father I-!" Nappa shouted, letting the body drop to the floor, Paragus indeed was killed in one shot. Kron replied with a shrug, speaking up slowly with an annoyed tone.
"-Nappa, shut up. King Vegeta. You and your tribe are welcome to stay though in exchange, those among you have to promise not to hurt the people of this planet or-" these words had an impact when some ugly Saiyan cackled in the background, he, an older Saiyan stood forward to speak when he also took a beam to the head, killing him instantly, this time it was Vegeta with two fingers together firing the blast which had those assembled in King Vegeta's camp worried. Vegeta interrupted, barking loudly.
"You can stay on the planet Sadala, nearby which is a colony of sorts of this planet. Though your monarchy ends with my father, I have no use for the title and even less leading a bunch of apes who lack the fighting spirit I wield. I have no use for weaklings so, try and get stronger and don't think you'll be safe to do as you please there. Kron has a wife on that planet, she is more than capable in killing you all by herself and what's worse, she hasn't trained as hard as us in a long while. Nappa knows her at the least-" Nappa snapped, replying.
"-Is it that sword wielding woman!" King Vegeta interrupted, nodding to his son.
"We've been given a second chance; we will proceed as exactly as you have ordered my son… I will also stand down as King effective immediately, as to instead stay here. Vegeta, tell me you've at least, while we've been dead have put some thought into rekindling the Saiyan race." Piccolo could be heard whispering nearby, as he floated upwards followed by Yamcha and Sixteen.
"...I'm leaving, this is none of my business and it's just a bunch of weaklings. I've training to get to." Yamcha added, a smirk etched onto his face.
"-Yeah, this blows. I'm out." the two of them quietly said, as it looked like a fight wouldn't break out after all, though there were some rowdy people in the massive crowd of Saiyan's, ultimately, they were weaklings.
(Raven Branwen-POV)
"Who is this weirdo and why does he look like you Vegeta-" Raditz glanced at the man, he looked down to the side, a movement that Vegeta made often, Raven whispered to Échalote, calming her down when she started to squirm in her hands.
"-Huh?" Vegeta and the man, wearing a cape and a mustache spoke at once, pointing at one another before the man with the cape scowled. Vegeta grunted, annoyed, replying to her words while she held their daughter, Échalote while Tora, Vernal and Tarble stood nearby to her.
"This is my father… he will be staying here, on planet Earth for now. The rest of his men will be leaving for Sadala where he will then join them later. I brought him here; he wanted to meet our kids." Vegeta said, arms crossed as he motioned his now named father over. The man spoke, his voice similar to his son though more dignified sounding, as if he was used to speaking more than fighting, he was king, Vegeta told her not much of him in the past.
"Right… I am here to meet my grandchildren, they appear-" King Vegeta clicked his blue tinted scouter, his mouth held agape in surprise, his scouter reading not only her, but everyone of her four children as Vegeta 'hmphed', walking passed her, taking Échalote with him while he walked deeper into the large capsule domed building which their home and their ship. Their sons Tora and Tarble followed their father, wary of the man while Vernal followed after her brothers. She narrowed her gaze onto him, motioning him to enter.
'Right, you might as well come in then. Will talk, though I'm going to have to ask you to remove your boots." she pointed down, as he glanced down and complied… hesitantly, a king is a king after all and he was not different, not used to be ordered around and by his son's wife of all people. Raven led him inside, where she knew Vegeta would be eating along with their four children.
(Raditz-POV)
"Kakarot, look at that guy… come with me for a second, bring your son with you." Raditz grabbed Kakarot's tail, the Saiyan's were beginning to leave on King Vegeta's orders, while he and Vegeta left, heading to Vegeta's home. Most had left, Tien and Chiaotzu stayed while Seventeen also stuck around, a rowdy few Saiyan's thought they could take the punk but Seventeen easily outmaneuvered them, humiliating a few of them in front of their men. The other Saiyan's, there were almost three fourths, according to the king, that were all in hell when they made their escape. Though there were some, Raditz noted, who hadn't been seen at all, the queen for example… or Kakarot and his mother weren't there.
Raditz knew some hadn't been revived, the Saiyan's here were some of the harshest bastards he'd ever seen when he was but a brat, he also seen their father with all of his old guard, an old squad his father led though they unlike all the others, were leaving. Raditz pulled Kakarot with him and Gohan followed along while they headed over to a group of Saiyan's, the others left their father alone, their father waved the off when he seen them approach.
"Raditz." his father, Bardock began, looking at Kakarot and Gohan with interest.
"You've gotten strong, then this is…" Bardock stared, as Kakarot blinked, replying.
"Hi… I'm Goku-" Raditz sighed, interrupting him.
"-He's your son, the one you and mother must have sent away. He goes by Goku now. Don't ask." he quickly added, Bardock frowned for a moment, eyeing Gohan before replying.
"Right, Goku… nice to meet you. You're my son then, you've got the look alright… Anyway, as you can see, me and my old squad will be around, on planet Sadala, we're going to be training, to take the fight to Frieza. Seeing as we aren't going to be wasting time attacking random planets. King's orders. And who is the young lad, he's a Saiyan I can see." Bardock stepped around both Raditz himself and Kakarot, peering at Gohan with much interest, getting all the way up into his personal space while Gohan stepped backwards a tad.
"This is our father, Bardock. Kakarot. Gohan, your grandfather, you could say. Father, this is Gohan. Now, I've got better things than talking to you old man-" Bardock laughed, Raditz smirked as he took off. Kakarot, Gohan and Bardock followed, Bardock calling out.
"I'll see where you two brats live, then I will go meet up with my team, where going to be busy off on this planet Sadala, where prince Vegeta, that Kron has spoken of. I can't believe that the arrogant king is thinking of retiring… what a strange feeling, anyway, I'll be looking forward to fighting you two one day." Raditz nodded, hearing as Kakarot replied.
"So, you're my father, just how strong are you. No offense, but your properly not all that strong anyway, fighting you would uh, be counterproductive, you know. You not that strong!" Kakarot said seriously as Raditz sighed, seeing the offended look on their father's face. The look didn't last long, as their old man burst out in laughter, eyes closed in tears from laughing against the wind.
"You're going to be a blast getting to know eh, Goku was it. A pity you've abandoned your Saiyan name though I must imagine you were taken in as a brat from some Earthling, it's surprising you didn't end up clearing the world of its population though it would seem that is the best. And you Raditz, how was Nappa and Vegeta, the princely one. You were with them a long time, Nappa said as much, being demoted to what was amounted as a babysitter for a long while." suffice to say, Raditz, Kakarot, Gohan and Bardock spoke for a while on route to Kakarot's house, Bardock then met Goten and they all ate a meal together while talking. Bardock even had enough time to witness Raditz, Gohan and Kakarot sparring together, he was impressed by their strength and pledged that he too will eventually, fight them too in the future.
