DragonBall V: A World Both Familiar and Foreign

Chapter 10: The Battle With Frieza, Round 1

Frieza looked around frantically, his face twisted into a
grimace. “Where did that dragon go?! I want my wish!”

Vegeta chuckled. “Too late, Frieza!
We already made our wishes! Better luck next time.”

Frieza scowled. “Oh, you’re so kind to say so. I should have
known you were involved, Vegeta. I’m not happy about losing my wish, but I’ll
cheer myself up by beating you to a bloody pulp, you damn monkey!”

Vegeta grinned. “Let’s get to it then, you bastard. Baldie,
you ready to mix it up?”

Krillin scowled at Vegeta. “Damn it, Vegeta, can’t you at
least call me by my name?!”

Vegeta sneered. “I take that as a yes. Ready when you are,
Frieza!”

Frieza looked between them for a few moments, checking his
scouter readings. “200,000, Vegeta? My, how strong
you’ve become. 150,000 for the shrimp. No wonder Ginyu
was no match for you. But two on one… do you really
think that’s fair?”

Vegeta glanced at Krillin, sensing he was still hiding the
bulk of his power. Knowing that he was as well, he shrugged. “Fine then,
Frieza. Pick one of us to fight… the choice is yours.”

Krillin glanced at Vegeta, uncertainty marring his features.
“You sure about this, Vegeta? Isn’t he supposed to be
like all powerful or something? It’ll take everything we’ve got to beat him, you are the one that said that, ya
know.”

Vegeta shrugged. “We’ve both gotten a lot stronger since
then. I think either one of us is a match for him. If not, we’ll handle it
together. The little green man might want to back off, though.”

Dende, who had been frozen in fear, snapped out of his
trance and ran off, hiding behind some large rocks. Frieza watched the young
Namek run and decided to leave him be, as he was not a threat. He turned his
gaze to look at Krillin and Vegeta again. He decided to get the easy kill
first, taking on Krillin then finishing off Vegeta when he was alone. “Since
we’re going to fight, I’m sure you wouldn’t mind if we moved away from my ship.
I’d hate for it to get damaged by your skulls getting crushed against it, after
all.”

Vegeta shrugged. “Lead the way, freak.” He was openly
taunting Frieza, eager to be the first one to fight. They both followed Frieza
away from the ship, glad that it wouldn’t get damaged, especially with Goku
still inside regenerating.

They stopped in a large field with rock formations
occasionally jutting out of the ground, a perfect place for a fight. “I trust
this is satisfactory?” Frieza inquired.

Vegeta nodded, crossing his arms and directing a haughty
glare at Frieza. “It’s fine. Now hurry up and choose who fights you first. I’m
getting impatient.”

Frieza chuckled. “Patience never was your best virtue,
Vegeta. But I want to fight your little friend first,
I hope that doesn’t hurt your feelings.”

Vegeta snorted. “I understand. I’d be afraid of me if I were
you, as well. Have fun, Krillin. And watch out for that tail.”

Krillin nodded, casting a wary glance towards the Saiyan
prince. He walked towards Frieza and assumed a fighting stance. “Bring it on,
dome head.” Krillin taunted. Frieza smirked and launched into an attack,
expecting to crush Krillin with one blow. Krillin didn’t have time to dodge the
attack so instead he deflected it with his left arm and used his right to punch
Frieza in the stomach. Frieza grunted and backed away a bit and caught Krillin
in the back of the head with his tail before the monk could get out of the way.
Krillin growled and attacked with a flurry of kicks, all getting knocked aside
by Frieza’s hands. He gasped as Frieza’s tail wrapped around his neck suddenly,
choking off his air.

“Damn it, baldie, I told you to watch out for his tail! Do I
have to step in?” Vegeta asked in a growl.

Krillin was whacked against the ground a few times, but he
managed to answer. “Nope, I’m” WHACK! “ok. Don’t worry
about…” WHACK! “… me.” Krillin hooked his legs around
Frieza’s tail and used them to squeeze it. After a few moments, the tail
slackened up enough for Krillin to wiggle out of it and land in a crouch,
dodging to the side when Frieza lashed out with a foot. “Is that the best
you’ve got, Frieza? I’ll show you my true power now. It’ll feel good to cut
loose!” Frieza paused and backed up a few steps, grinning. He wanted to see the
monk’s true strength, so he waited for him to power up. With a loud cry, energy
blasted around Krillin in a white aura, seeming almost like white fire.

After nearly a minute the energy aura vanished and Krillin
took his stance, indicating his readiness. Frieza tapped his scouter to reset
it and it brought up Krillin’s new, true power
reading. “350,000? I’m impressed. Truly, I am.” Frieza chuckled for a few
moments, then took his own fighting stance.

Vegeta scowled. ‘350,000 and Frieza is laughing? I wonder
what my reading would be at full power? I know I’m
stronger than the little runt, but by how much?’ Vegeta was impressed as
Krillin kicked Frieza in the ribs and the sound of the impact resonated like a
thunderclap. The move was immediately followed by a twist and an elbow into the
gut, but Frieza grabbed Krillin by the top of his bald head and tossed him away
and into one of the rock formations littering the landscape.

“Not bad, but it won’t be enough.” Frieza said with a laugh.

Krillin stood and lifted his hand into the air and an energy
disk formed and started to swirl above his head. “Desctructo disk!” Krillin shouted, throwing the disk
straight at Frieza’s chest. Frieza made the mistake of trying to deflect the
disk with his tail, only succeeding in having half of the appendage chopped off
and redirecting the disk so that it wouldn’t chop through his rib cage.

Frieza stared in shock at his tail. “You little worm! You
cut off my beautiful tail! I’ll wring your scrawny neck for that!” Frieza was
enraged and launched into an offensive assault that had Krillin taking far too
many shots to his body and head. Before Vegeta could intervene, Frieza brought
his hands down in a hammer punch and sent Krillin flying into the ground,
forming a large crater. Krillin grew still, unconscious and a bloody mess.
Frieza turned to smile at Vegeta, who gritted his teeth in anger. “Damn you
Frieza! You’ll pay for that! That little runt is a half decent sparring
partner!”

Frieza chuckled. “I don’t think you’ll be
needing one of those any longer, Vegeta. You’ll be joining your friend
in the ground in a few moments, after all.”

Vegeta growled and flew forward and grabbed Frieza’s hands,
both pressing against each other in a test of strength. “You won’t be so cocky
when you see my true strength, you bastard!” Vegeta yelled, powering up as he
struggled with Frieza.

A crater began to form between the two struggling combatants
from the force of the energy between them, but neither was gaining an
advantage. Every time Frieza struggled harder, Vegeta’s power level caught up
to him and it was still rising. Frieza began to get nervous as his scouter
reading of Vegeta kept shooting up. It had already passed the 400k mark and was
approaching 500,000 when the scouter shattered, no longer able to keep up with
the radical powering up. “You fucking monkey! How did you get
so strong!?”

Vegeta smiled cruelly. “While you’ve been sitting around on
your ass, I’ve been in constant battles and training, getting stronger! You’re no
match for me, Frieza!” With that statement, Vegeta ended the stalemate of their
struggle by kicking the icy tyrant in his stomach, sending him flying into the
air. Before he recovered, Vegeta had appeared above him and slammed his fists
down on Frieza’s back to send him hurtling into the ground, forming a second
crater next to the one they had just created. Frieza struggled up to his feet
and spit blood out. “My… it’s been so long since I’ve seen my own blood that I
had forgotten what it looked like.” Frieza remarked with a smile.

Vegeta smirked. “Well you’ll be seeing a lot more of it
before I’m done with you, bastard!” Vegeta flew forward and punched and kicked
Frieza at an ever increasing rate of speed and power, making the evil alien
grunt in effort. He instinctively kept trying to use his tail in the fight, but
since it had been mostly cut off it was no help and merely thrashed around in
frustration. Frieza caught Vegeta in the chin but instead of falling to the
ground Vegeta used the momentum to spin around and backhand the ice tyrant,
sending him hurtling to the ground instead. Frieza rolled as he landed and
moved up unsteadily to his feet, huffing to catch his breath. Vegeta landed a
few meters in front of him and grinned. “I still haven’t broken a sweat,
Frieza.”

Frieza sneered and wiped the blood away from his face.
“Well, I have to commend you, Vegeta. You really had me going there. You should
have finished me off already though. You just lost your only chance!” Before
Vegeta could question what he meant or launch a finishing attack, Frieza
started screaming as his body started to change.

Vegeta stared in shock, mouth agape. “That damned Zarbon wasn’t lying! Frieza really can change into a
stronger form. He’s going to get stronger too. I need to get this senzu bean to
Krillin so he can help me out!” He turned and was surprised to see Krillin
approaching, wiping dried blood and dirt from his orange gi.
“What the hell!? How did you get
healed without a senzu bean, baldie!?”

Krillin nodded at Dende, who was hiding behind some more
rocks. “That little guy has the power to heal. Can you believe it? Don’t let
on, though, or Frieza might go after him. Holy shit! Speaking of Frieza, what
the hell is he doing!?”

Vegeta scowled. “He’s metamorphing.
Zarbon did the same thing and got a lot stronger. I
imagine Frieza will get a lot stronger, as well. I was a bit stronger than him
in his current form, but now he’s getting stronger. It’ll probably take both of
us to beat him.”

Krillin looked at Vegeta for a few moments, noting that the
Saiyan prince was biting back his pride for the sake of survival. ‘He has
something to fight for, other than his own life, or he’d never admit to needing
my help. His pride is more important to him than his own life. What can it be that
is more important to him than his pride?’

Vegeta caught the look and growled at him. “Power back up, you little runt! Frieza looks like he’s done
transforming!”

Krillin nodded and started powering back up to maximum, his
gaze fixed on Frieza who was now finished metamorphing.
“Ugh… he’s gotten even uglier!” Krillin remarked sarcastically.

Vegeta growled. “But a lot stronger… he’s definitely more
powerful than me now. Maybe even more than both of us
together. Give it everything you’ve got.”

Krillin nodded and they both attacked, not waiting for
Frieza to start the offensive. Frieza at first easily knocked and dodged the
attacks, but the speed of the attacks were increasing
as both fighters became more determined and angry. Vegeta flipped over Frieza
and kicked him in the back as Krillin came in low with an elbow followed by a
backhand across the tyrant’s face. They both leaped away and assessed the
damage done, seeing that it wasn’t terribly much. Vegeta growled and brought up
his hands, charging up his ki for an energy blast, noticing Krillin doing the
same, preparing for a kamehameha wave. “You think you’re so strong, Frieza?!
Let’s see how you handle this! Gallic gun!” He brought
his hands forward and poured as much ki into the blast as he could manage without
passing out.

At the same time Krillin shouted “Kamehameha!” And fired off the energy wave. Frieza smirked and took the
blasts, expecting to not even feel them. He was surprised, then, when after the
energy dissipated, he was hacking up blood and on one knee. He looked up at the
two warriors who had moved closer to one another and assumed fighting stances,
and he realized he was wheezing. He straightened and shook his head. “You may
think you have won, but I have a little surprise for you both. I still have two
more transformations!” Frieza announced, laughing.

Vegeta’s eyes widened. “Hurry up, baldie! We have to kill
him before he gets a chance to transform again!” Krillin’s
gaze snapped over to Vegeta then back at Frieza and they both flew at him and attacked,
but Frieza was glowing and changing again and didn’t feel the attacks. They
gave up and backed off to conserve energy, hoping this new transformation
wasn’t that much more powerful.

Of course, their hopes were dashed. Vegeta knew this as soon
as he noticed he was skidding along the ground and crashing into a boulder, and
through it… and another one. Krillin noticed as he found himself in the air and
then slamming into the ground and creating a crater several feet deep. He
gasped and was still, unconscious. Vegeta crawled to his feet, unable to even
see straight. He growled in frustration and put his hands up, ready to continue
the fight as soon as he could figure out which Frieza was the real one.

Frieza boomed out an evil laugh and approached Vegeta,
intent on making the Saiyan suffer. He grabbed Vegeta by the neck and slammed
him into the ground. As he was about to stomp on his chest, Vegeta made a
desperation move and fired off a blast of ki directly into Frieza’s face.
Frieza backed off, hissing in anger. Vegeta used the rock face behind him to
pull himself up, gasping for breath and hoping to regain some of his lost
energy. He knew he had the senzu bean still, but at this point he wasn’t hurt
enough to gain an increase in power from using it so he would just regain the
lost energy that Frieza would just pound out of him again. He hoped Dende would
heal him though so he could save the senzu bean for later in case he needed it.
He gasped as Frieza started punching his gut at a hyper rate, drilling him into
the rock behind him. Frieza chuckled and kept the attack up, punching faster
and harder every passing second. Vegeta spewed blood up, staining Frieza’s
face, which angered the icy tyrant. He backhanded Vegeta who fell to the
ground, hacking up even more blood onto the ground. He raised his hand to
finish the prince off when he heard a whoosh of air pass him. He blinked and
saw Vegeta ten meters away along with Krillin, both the worse barely hanging on
to life. Between them and himself was a Namek warrior. “Oh, gee. I thought I
had killed nearly all of you Nameks. I guess I missed
one.” Frieza said in a condescending tone.

Krillin blinked away the sweat and blood from his eyes and
nearly wept at the sight above him. “Piccolo! Thank…
thank Kami you’re here. We had our asses handed to us.” Krillin chuckled and
immediately regretted it as he winced in pain.

Piccolo nodded. “Don’t sweat it, Krillin. I’ll take things
from here.”

Frieza chuckled. “Well, this should be interesting.”

Piccolo assumed a fighting stance, scowling at Frieza. “I’m
going to make you pay for every drop of Namek blood you’ve spilled, you sick
freak!” Piccolo vowed, an aura of energy surrounding him as he powered up.

***************************

Gohan barely managed to stand before his new opponent
touched down on the ground. It was a huge blue-skinned muscle-bound behemoth of
a man, and he was growling at Gohan. “Oh… great. It
had to be a big one.” Gohan chuckled, but it was only to cover his fear.

“You kill Kui?! Ume bash you!” The large azure skinned warrior announced. [AN: Ume
is Plum in Japanese, keeping with the fruit pun naming
system for Frieza’s goons. Teehee]

Gohan stifled a laugh, wondering how intelligent the
gigantic man could be from a statement like that. Gohan pulled himself into a fighting stance, breathing deep and trying to
pull the energy surrounding him inside like Piccolo had taught him. Of course,
that was normally for when he meditated, but the young demi-Saiyan
would take anything he could get at this point.

Ume didn’t wait for Gohan to attack,
running forward to deliver a blow to the half-Saiyan’s face. Gohan threw his
arms up to block and winced as the force of the impact knocked him a meter back
and onto his butt. The boy climbed back to his feet, wondering where Yajirobe
was with that second senzu bean. He reached out with his senses and found the
obese samurai still a good 30km away. Gohan hissed in frustration, feeling his
muscles still burning from his prior fight. He jumped up and delivered a kick
to the blue man’s chin and yelped when he was grabbed around the ankle and
thrown into the ground. By into, of course, meaning a good decimeter deep in
the soil.

Ume followed the attack by slamming
his fist into Gohan’s chest. Ume stared down at the boy
and scratched his head, wondering if he was dead. He wasn’t sure, so he slammed
his foot down on him next. Gohan was still, being unconscious, so Ume
walked away, satisfied that Gohan was dead. His sensitive ears picked up
movement and he turned to see Gohan up on his hands and knees, gasping for
breath. “Boy still live?! Ume crush!” Ume ran towards him, raising
up his clasped hands to hammer punch Gohan, but Gohan desperately brought one
of his hands up and fired a ki blast. It wasn’t enough to cause any real damage
but it made the beast pause so he could move away to lean against a rock and
catch his breath.

“I… I can’t let him win. Too much is riding on me!” Gohan
thought fiercely. He ran forward and jumped into the air to deliver a punch to
the beast’s face, feeling a crunch from the alien’s nose. He flipped over the
blue man and elbowed him in the back then swept his legs out from under him as
he landed. He rolled over to deliver a chop to Ume’s neck then stood and backed off to catch his breath
again. He was confused when Ume didn’t move. “Could I
have killed him already?” Gohan approached warily, watching for signs of
movement.

As he blinked, Ume jumped up and
slammed his fist into the boy’s chin, sending him flying into the air. Before
Gohan could recover enough to gain control over his flight, the alien had sped
past him and kicked him back towards the earth below. Gohan winced then cried
out as he slammed into the ground, feeling several of his ribs and his left arm
snap. Gohan screamed in pain when the behemoth landed on his back, driving him
even deeper into the ground. Gohan was dazed and lay still, unable to move for
the time being. Ume watched him. “You
dead?” Ume asked. He scratched his head when he
received no reply and prodded the boy with his foot.

Gohan groaned and immediately wished he hadn’t. Ume
knelt down and started to hammer blows down on him, not letting up until he was
a bloody mess. He stood up and surveyed his handiwork. “Me
think you dead now. But me be sure.” With that, he jumped up and came down
again with his fist, driving it into Gohan’s ribcage. When Gohan didn’t move, Ume
was satisfied that he was dead. He started to walk away and look around.

Gohan cracked his eyes open and winced as the dim light of
the setting sun was too much for his eyes to bear. “Piccolo… I don’t think I
can move.” Gohan whispered. He was disappointed when his mentor’s voice didn’t
come into his mind as it had before. Little did he know that Piccolo had
already been wished back to life and was on Namek, racing towards Frieza to
help the others. Gohan put all of his willpower into
getting up, knowing his father would die before giving up. “I… can… do… this!”
Gohan gasped out.

Ume heard him, and turned around. “What it take to kill you?!” Ume
demanded.

Gohan raised his right hand above his head, hoping he could
focus a ki blast with only one hand. “Masenko!” Gohan
cried, throwing every last bit of energy into the ball and hurtling it towards Ume
who was too stupid to move out of the way. The blast slammed into his chest and
drove the blue man down to the flat of his back. He stared up, wondering what
had happened. He found himself a bit too weak to move, so he rested for a few
moments. Gohan unfortunately had nothing left to finish the invader off and slumped
down to the ground.

It became a waiting game, to see who would recover first. Ume
was up first, nearly twenty minutes later. He stumbled to his feet and made his
way towards Gohan, murder in his eyes. “Me kill you,
then me kill everyone on planet! Me torture them
first! Me grind their bones and make their eyes pop! Me
bite arms off, me grind with hands! Me find you family, crush them! You have
mother? Me rape to death! You hurt me, you pay!”

Gohan was filled with rage at the alien’s words. It was
enough to give him the strength to stand up. He swayed unsteadily on his feet
and growled at the larger blue-skinned man. Ume paused
then continued to advance towards him. Gohan crackled with energy, summoning up
every last bit of willpower and the strength of his emotions into him, putting
his right hand behind him and trying to focus a kamehameha with one hand as he
had done with the masenko. With a cry of rage he thrust his hand forward,
shouting “Kamehameha!” Ume was enveloped in an energy
wave fueled by Gohan’s rage. Gohan felt his control slip away and he was lost
in the red haze of fury, throwing an insane amount of energy into the attack
and obliterating the henchman of Frieza and the wave tilted up and destroyed
the ship that was floating overhead as well. Gohan seethed with raw rage,
wanting something else to kill. With nothing else around to destroy, he snapped
out of his trance of rage and collapsed into the dirt and immediately went
unconscious.

**************************

It really doesn’t pay to piss of a Saiyan… especially when
that Saiyan is Gohan. Ha ha. I hope you all enjoyed
this chapter. It shouldn’t be too much of a wait for chapter 11. I have some
business to take care of tomorrow, so it might not be till the weekend. But,
you can’t expect me to come out with a new chapter EVERY day, right? Heh. Next
Chapter: Frieza, round 2 and of course more on Gohan. Review and make me happy!
