The battle with the Saiyan invader Raditz continued raging on. The fearsome warrior outclassed Tien, Piccolo and Goku. At one point, the Earth fighters seemed like they had defeated Raditz when Piccolo and Tien used their signature energy attacks on the evil Saiyan. However, the attacks weren't enough and only injured the invader. Raditz then proceeded to defeat each warrior one by one. Tien was the first warrior to be killed when Goku's brother sent a piercing ki attack through the three eyed warrior's chest. Then after a vicious beam struggle, Raditz left Goku mortally wounded. Piccolo being the only warrior left could do little as Raditz tortured the demon with dozens of ki waves that knocked the fighter down. Raditz had emerged victorious, but at a price. The warrior got into his ship and prepared to fly back to the Planet Trade Organization's headquarters not before declaring he would return in one year.

Raditz slumbered in his Saiyan Space pod as it flew through the blackness of outer space. The warrior had been beaten up pretty badly by his brother and friends. The thought of a warrior like Raditz almost falling to warriors so far beneath his power caused his blood to boil in his sleep. All the Saiyan soldier said during his trip back to Planet Freeza was, "Damn you Kakarot. I hope you're writhing in hell right now for striking me." Soon enough, the singular pod entered the atmosphere of the foreign planet.

The planet Raditz landed on had a very thin atmosphere. The sky wasn't a clear blue color like Earth, but a black color that made the surrounding stars visible. The buildings on the base of operations were so advanced, they looked nothing like structures on Earth. A flock of soldiers gathered around Raditz's battered ship. None of them looked nothing like humans either, but resembled demons and creatures of folklore.

A blue scaly soldier opened the hatch of the ship to see who had come back to the planet. "Hey who's in here?" The alien soldier asked.

Raditz moaned and opened one of his eyes. The Saiyan gave a blank stare at his comrades and fainted before he could explain what happened.

"Damn Raditz took a beating! Look at the back of his seat it's covered in blood!" A soldier from the crowd exclaimed.

"This is Tomto of sector seven. We need a stretcher out here right away! Raditz is back and he needs advanced treatment right now!" The blue soldier said as he pushed a button on his scouter that relayed his message.

After a few minutes the white stretcher arrived and the doctors lifted Raditz on to it and began to wheel him inside for treatment. The interior of the building had white walls like a regular hospital and exquisite purple tile on the floors. The weakened fighter kept coming in and out of consciousness as he heard seemingly random lines from the doctors.

"He's in really bad shape." One alien doctor said.

"I hope he can make it a little bit longer so we can get him in the healing tank." Another said to the first doctor.

The delirious Saiyan was being shuffled from room to room receiving various shots from doctors. The warrior finally arrived in the room with the healing tank. Before the doctors put Raditz in the machine they cut his armor off, and put a new pair of underwear on the battered Saiyan. They also provided stitching to his cuts and gashes so his the healing fluid wouldn't cause an infection during the healing process.

"Raditz? Please wake up Raditz!" An older brown skinned physician demanded.

Raditz heavily sedated opened both of his eyes and looked at the crocodile looking doctor. "Erghh, where am I?" The groggy Saiyan asked.

"Raditz you're back on Planet Freeza #79. How did you get so banged up?" the croc doctor asked back.

"Ughh Kaka-rot. I'll get you Kakarot, and your son too." The Saiyan declared in a barely audible tone. The warrior passed out again after his short explanation.

"Who in blazes is Kakarot?" The physician asked himself as he lowered his patient into the healing machine. The apparatus was dome shaped with a thin layer of glass on the front. Inside the machine was a breathing apparatus so the patient wouldn't drown inside. The doctor closed the machine after Raditz was secured inside. Green liquid resembling water filled the tank and enveloped the warrior. "Don't worry Raditz, this liquid contains synthetic Saiyan DNA. Once you finish healing, you'll be even stronger than before." The doctor said to the unconscious warrior. "I better tell Prince Vegeta and General Nappa what happened to Raditz." The brown crocodile added to his previous statement.

Meanwhile, light years away on a desolated planet, Vegeta and Nappa sat by a fire cooking meat and attending to their appetites. The brown doctor had relayed all of the information of Raditz's injuries to the Saiyan General Nappa. Nappa was a rather large muscular man with a very distinct handle bar mustache. He wore black armor with yellow shoulder pads. "What do you mean Raditz almost died?" Nappa yelled into his scouter.

"Yes sir, he's receiving treatment now. He kept muttering something about someone named Kakarot and his son." The scared doctor relayed.

"How long until he's healed?" Nappa questioned.

"About one more day General. I highly recommend coming back to headquarters to ask Raditz what happened to him." The doctor suggested.

"Vegeta what do you think?" The general asked the prince.

The Saiyan prince approached Nappa. Although he was small in stature, Nappa was visibly intimidated by his superior. Vegeta had spiky brown hair and a set of white armor with yellow shoulder pads as well. "Nappa, we are going back to headquarters to make sense of this situation. Prepare our ships at once." Vegeta ordered his general.

"Did you hear that doc? We'll be back in a jiff." The muscular bald warrior said as he turned his scouter off.

"I guess Kakarot got the better of that weakling Raditz." Vegeta scoffed.

"The doc also said something about his son too. Do you think Raditz kidnapped the kid?" Nappa asked curiously.

"Who cares either way? The kid is probably weak anyway. Nobody on Earth shares the power of a soldier in Freeza's army." Vegeta explained as he got into his spaceship. Nappa and Vegeta also had identical ships to the one Raditz used and previously Goku when he first arrived on Earth all those years ago. In a flash, the two warriors were headed towards Planet Freeza in search of answers from Raditz.

Three days after Raditz had arrived on Planet Freeza #79, he was fully healed from his injuries on Earth. The doctors opened the healing tank and Raditz emerged seemingly like a brand new warrior.

"Do you feel alright Raditz?" The doctor asked.

"I feel like I'm even stronger than before." Raditz declared. "Doctor put my scouter on and scan my fighting power if you don't mind." Raditz asked his brown crocodile savior.

"Sure Raditz let's see here. According to your scouter, your strength is now twenty-five hundred." The doctor stated to the healed Saiyan.

"Excellent. It seems that tough battle I had strengthened me." Raditz thought to himself.

"Sir, Vegeta and Nappa are on their way here to ask you a few questions." The crocodile said

The doctor shocked Raditz with his statement. "Damn it. I can't sit here and wait for them to come here!" The agitated Raditz screamed.

"But why Raditz? What's the matter and who is Kakarot or his son?" The doctor questioned.

"I appreciate what you did for me Doctor. But you ask to many questions." Raditz said as he approached the physician. "You have to die now since you told Vegeta and Nappa that I am here." Raditz explained as he ran his arm through the doctor's heart. The dead alien then slumped to the ground as Raditz walked over to a sink to wash his hands.

"I have to find two pairs of armor quickly and head over to Arlia." The evil long haired Saiyan thought to himself as a pool of blue blood surrounded the deceased crocodile. "Gohan I'll be there soon. Don't die you little brat. I have grand plans for you my nephew." Raditz said to himself as he walked to the hallway looking for some armor.
