DragonBall V: A World Both Familiar
and Foreign

Chapter 13: Round 4: Nothing Scarier Than Two Angry
Super-Saiyans

Bulma sat straight up in bed and stared up towards the
ceiling. The aching feeling in her heart was beginning to fade and she had the
strangest feeling that Vegeta wasn’t dead anymore. “Could Frieza have been
defeated and they used the dragonballs to wish him back?!” Bulma wondered
aloud. No matter how it had happened, Bulma was ecstatic. She ran down the
stairs, laughing and singing and dancing around, acting silly and not caring
one little bit. Her mother was almost knocked down and when she recovered she
smiled brightly and offered Bulma some of the tea she was carrying. Bulma
leaned over and kissed her mother and took a tea cup and saucer and spun around
before sipping at it.

“Oh, goodness me!” Mrs. Briefs
exclaimed, raising a hand to her cheek in surprise and expertly balancing the
tray with her other hand.

“I feel so much
better, mom! I don’t know how that man managed it, but my Vegeta is alive
again!” Bulma hummed a jaunty tune before realizing how hungry she was since
she had skipped a meal or two. “Man, is there anything to eat? I’m starving! I
think I could almost eat as much as Goku right now…” Bulma stuck her head into
the refrigerator, intent on finding something to eat.

“Oh dear, would you like me to make you some lunch?” Mrs.
Briefs asked, smiling as she walked over to one of the food pantries.

Bulma nodded enthusiastically. “Yeah!
That’d be great, mom! You’re the best! Hey, where’s dad? I want to see how he’s
coming on that improved gravity generator. If I know Vegeta, he’s going to want
to be able to get over 100Gs in his training when he comes home.”

Mrs. Briefs smiled. “He’s outside working on that thing you
just mentioned, sweetie. Would you like me to call you when lunch is ready?”

Bulma smiled and nodded and started walking towards the door
that led outside. “Yeah, thanks mom! I love you!” Bulma hurried outside and
gave her father a big hug. “Hey there, best father in the world! How’s the new
gravity room coming along?”

Dr. Briefs scratched his had and grinned. It wasn’t often
that Bulma showed him this much affection but he cherished every moment of it.
Had he been a bit more grounded in his thoughts, he might have wondered whether
his daughter was on drugs given her drastic mood swing, but then he probably
wouldn’t be quite the genius he was if he thought about things like that. “Oh,
it’s coming along, Bulma. Actually, I could use your help on these
calculations. If I’m right, we can increase the gravity generation to up to 500
times earth’s gravity, and the new reinforced alloy you came up with should
more than handle the energy output from a training Saiyan. But I’d like you to
double-check my calculations.” Dr. Briefs handed Bulma some papers with the
calculations both printed and written.

Bulma nodded and sat down and looked them over. “Oh, this
won’t do, dad. You’ll have a power surge and wipe out the whole city if you
turn on the generator as is. We’ll need to install that new cooling system that
you build for the new line of capsule generators, as well as double the
reinforcement around the generator and install an energy loop system or the
fusion generators that we learned how to build from the Saiyan space pods will
burn out in a matter of days. And we really should use a zinium alloy coating inside,
it’ll bounce any energy or heat thrown at it right back, so their energy
attacks won’t keep blowing holes in the sides of the ship.”

Dr. Briefs scratched his head and smiled. “Sounds
good, sweetie pie! You’re so much smarter than me and
just as pretty as your mother! My, you are blessed young lady!”

Bulma blushed. “Dad! You’re
embarrassing me!”

Mrs. Briefs popped her pretty blonde head out of the window
and called to them that lunch was ready. Bulma appeared in the kitchen so fast
one might have thought she used the Instantaneous Movement technique. Her
parents watched in awe as the pretty blue haired woman devoured her lunch in an
almost Saiyan like manner. They laughed when she paused to look at them in
confusion and the rest of the lunch passed without any further incidents.

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

Gohan landed outside of his house and walked in, shouting
out a greeting to his mother. “Mom! I’m home… sorry I
was gone so long. I didn’t mean to worry you!” Gohan smiled in surprise as he
saw his grandfather the Ox King sitting on the couch next to his mother. “Grandpa! Hey, what are…” He was
cut off as Chi-chi ran forward and grabbed Gohan in a bear hug. “Hey mom… it’s
ok. I’m all right. Don’t worry.”

Chi-chi leaned back to look Gohan in the face and she burst
into tears. “How could you run off and leave me worried half to death like
that, young man!? I heard about those cities being destroyed and when you
didn’t come back… I was so sure… oh Gohan! Don’t ever worry me like that again!
I don’t know what I’d do if I lost you!”

Gohan felt tears come to his own eyes, his mother’s
emotional outburst upsetting him. “I’m so sorry, mom. Those aliens were killing
so many people and I was the only one strong enough to fight them. I’ll never
fight like that again, mom. Kami, I hope I don’t have to! Master Roshi… didn’t
make it.” Gohan lowered his head in shame at the old martial arts master’s
demise.

Chi-chi saw the look in her son’s eyes, seeing how shaken he
was at not only the turtle hermit’s death but also the fight itself. She knew
Gohan genuinely meant it when he said he hoped he never had to fight again. She
hugged Gohan close and tried her best to comfort the boy. Ox King approached
slowly and shifted from one foot to the other nervously. He hated seeing his daughter
upset and he was even more unsettled by the look in Gohan’s eyes. ‘The poor
boy… he had to kill to survive. So young to already have
blood on his hands. He’ll never be the sweet innocent boy he was just a
year ago.’ Ox King thought, nearly sobbing as well.

Chi-chi kissed Gohan on the forehead and ran her fingers
through his hair, though it didn’t help tame the wild hair on his head, it did
serve to make him smile, however hesitantly. “Are you hungry, Gohan? I have all
your favorites prepared. I was waiting for you to get home and cooking always
calms my nerves.”

Gohan’s eyes widened at the mention of food. He didn’t even
remember the last time he ate. ‘Kami… I think it was lunch yesterday! Or was it
the day before?’ He was rushing to the kitchen, all his manners forgotten as
his appetite took over his rational mind. “Oh, I am so hungry!” Gohan
exclaimed, tearing into the food on the table as if it were his first and last
meal. Chi-chi smiled, knowing that he was far too hungry to mind his manners so
she let it pass this time without comment.

“I think you should take the rest of the day off to rest and
relax, Gohan. Don’t worry about studying until tomorrow. I think you need the
break pretty badly.” Chi-chi stated.

Gohan smiled at her, genuine appreciation showing at his
mother’s generosity. “Thanks, mom! I don’t think I
would have been able to concentrate on my studies anyway.”

Chi-chi smiled and turned to glance towards the direction of
Kami’s lookout and breathed a thank you towards the Earth’s guardian for her
son’s safe return, though the shaken look in his eyes unsettled her. She sat
down next to her father and leaned against him, drawing what comfort she could
from the over-large man. Her little boy wasn’t so little anymore.

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

Everyone on King Kai’s planet stifled a chuckle as Bubbles
poked at the halo over Gregory’s head, teasing the little cricket. “Quit that,
Bubbles!” Gregory pouted.

King Kai put his hands over his mouth and choked back a fit
of giggles. “Gregory, I can never thank you enough for your noble sacrifice.
You didn’t have to volunteer to give up your life so Vegeta could live again,
after all.”

Gregory shrugged. “The only change is a halo over my head, it
was no big deal. Though I’m started to regret it since Bubbles won’t LEAVE ME
ALONE!” Gregory flitted about, avoiding the monkey as best as he could, finally
earning loud laughter from everyone else on the little planet.

“What’s happening now, King Kai?”
Yamcha asked, changing the subject from Gregory’s sacrifice of his life.

King Kai turned to look back at Namek and his antennae
twitched. “Goku and Vegeta are confronting Frieza. No fighting has started yet, I think Frieza is still shocked at Vegeta’s reappearance.
Oh my… the anger at his death and the threats on his mate were enough to push
him to Super Saiyan as well. My gosh… two Super
Saiyans. Who would have ever thought?”

Yamcha frowned in confusion. “Who is Vegeta’s mate?”

King Kai was about to respond when he realized that Bulma
had been Yamcha’s one time girlfriend. He thought it best that the news not
come from him, so he changed the subject. “That doesn’t matter right now. I
hope those boys can put Frieza away. That evil bastard deserves to die!”

Tien clenched his fists. “I know Goku and Vegeta can do it!
You all were so worried, but Goku can always pull it off when it has to be
done! If there’s one man that always deserves faith put in him, it’s Goku! Man
what I wouldn’t give to see the look on Frieza’s face right now!”

King Kai nodded. “Yes… he’s rather disturbed. He knew Goku
was going to beat him and he very nearly destroyed Namek to prevent it, but
Vegeta stopped him just in time! Amazing. Oh, and
you’ll all be happy to know that Gohan prevailed over Frieza’s men, but I’m
afraid it came at a heavy price. Gohan lost control of his power and it’s
scared him. I don’t think he’ll ever be the same. And poor old Muten Roshi was
slain. I’ll have to let Goku and the others know once Frieza is destroyed. If Frieza is destroyed.”

“I’m telling you, King Kai, Goku will pull it off! Don’t you
worry.” Tien stated confidently.

The Kai just nodded and focused his gaze back on Namek.

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

Vegeta looked up and frowned when he saw Goku. “Kakkarot,
your hair is gold!? Is that… what a Super Saiyan looks like?! I’d curse you for
reaching the level when I haven’t, but it’s worth it to watch Frieza die at the
hands of a Saiyan!”

Goku blinked in surprise and pulled a clump of his hair
down. “Wow! You’re right, it is gold! But, why are you complaining? Yours is
too!”

Vegeta’s mouth dropped open in shock before he examined his
own hair, then an evil grin formed on his lips. “Yes… I see! I have become a
Super Saiyan as well! Frieza, you have no hope of winning now! I’ll crush you
with my bare hands!”

Frieza looked between Goku and Vegeta, frowning. “Damn you
monkeys! As if one of you wasn’t bad enough, now the dead ones are popping back
up! Just how did you come back to life, anyway!? I blasted a hole
right through your heart! I saw you die, damn you!”

Vegeta shrugged. “I don’t know how it happened. I was
waiting in line at the check in station along with the Nameks you killed and
even those ridiculous Ginyus, and this insect flew up
to me and asked me if I was Vegeta. Of course, I proudly answered yes. Next
thing I know he’s landed on my shoulder and I was alive again and a halo formed
over his head. He wished me success in killing you then I was on Namek again
and saw your energy ball coming at me. It pissed me off to no ends, and here we
are. And now you die!”

Frieza growled and summoned up every last bit of strength he
had, growing to twice his prior size. “I’ll destroy you both!” Frieza vowed
before rushing at Vegeta, thinking him the weaker opponent.

Vegeta grinned and launched into the air and flew past
Frieza and grabbed his tail and swung him up towards Goku. “Coming
your way, Kakkarot!” Vegeta shouted with a wicked grin. Goku laughed and
knocked Frieza back towards Vegeta, who drove his fist so far into Frieza’s
stomach that his back was stretched out. The Saiyan Prince smiled in
satisfaction as the alien’s purple blood spewed up onto the blue Namekian grass
before he flipped backwards onto his hands, kicking Frieza in the chin and
sending him back up to Goku. Goku backhanded Frieza in the side of the head and
then grabbed him before he was hurtled away and slammed the tyrant’s back onto
his knee as hard as he could, hearing the satisfying sound of bones crunching.
Vegeta floated up and started smacking Frieza’s head from side to side as Goku
pummeled the tyrant’s kidney area. “This is for Bulma!” WHACK! “This is for
every single Namek you killed!” WHACK! “This is for Vegeta-sei!” WHACK! “And
this is for my father, you monster!” Vegeta cried as he slammed his fists down
on Frieza’s skull, hearing a crackle before the alien plummeted to the ground.

Goku and Vegeta landed on the ground several meters from
where Frieza was struggling up to his knees, begging for mercy from the
Saiyans. “Did you show my father mercy when you killed him even though he was
loyal to you?! Did you show mercy to the Saiyans you destroyed when you blew up
my home planet?! Did you show mercy to my mate and everyone else on my new home
when you endangered their lives with your damned mercenaries!?” Vegeta was
crackling with energy as he powered up a massive ki attack.

Goku joined in the tirade, his own rage overflowing. “Did
you show the innocent people of Namek mercy when you slaughtered them all in
your quest for immortality?! Did you show my friends mercy when you killed
them?! Did you show mercy to anyone of the countless people you’ve killed in
your lifetime, all for fear and power!? You don’t deserve mercy.” He brought
his hands back and began the kamehameha wave.

Vegeta smirked. “And you won’t get it, because we all know
you’ll just try to destroy the Earth and everyone we care for if we let you go,
Frieza. And you will not get the chance to end the life of my mate or anyone
else on Earth! Die, you fucking heartless beast! FINAL
FLASH!” Energy exploded out of Vegeta’s hands, fueled by his monstrous
rage. Less than a moment later, Goku’s own explosive kamehameha wave hit Frieza
as well, both Super Saiyans crying out in their wrath. Frieza barely got out a
cry of pain before he was incinerated. Vegeta fell to his knees and tears fell
from his eyes and he let them come, unashamed. “It’s… finally over. The
slaughtered Saiyans… my father… all avenged.” Vegeta turned to look at Goku as
they both powered down to normal. “Kakkarot… thank you for helping me destroy
that monster.”

Goku nodded and grinned. “Hey, it was the least I could do.
Bulma is my best friend, so you’re practically my brother-in-law!”

Vegeta looked horrified for a moment before he laughed.
“Never say that again, Kakkarot. I’d hate to have to kill you.”

Goku chuckled before his expression turned grim. “Piccolo!” He rushed off to search for the fallen Namek,
Vegeta trailing behind. They found him, alive but just barely. “Thank Kami!”
Goku grinned as Piccolo sneered even though he was unconscious at the mention
of his arch-rivals name.

They both looked up in surprise as they felt a large number
of kis pop up and they realized that the Earth’s dragonballs had been used to
bring all the people that Frieza and his henchmen had killed back to life. Goku
sighed with sadness as he remembered that Krillin couldn’t be wished back a
second time. Dende approached and cried out as he saw the shape Piccolo was in
and rushed over to heal him. As Piccolo was recovering he whispered a question
asking what that big thing in the sky was. Goku and Vegeta looked up and
laughed in surprise, seeing Porunga floating up there waiting for the third and
final wish to be made.

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

So, what do you think? Review and let me know! Next chapter:
The wishes and the return home. Too bad Goku won’t get a chance to learn the
Instantaneous Movement technique, at least not yet. Teehee.
And brave little Gregory, giving his life so Vegeta could
live. Sniff.
