Dragon Ball Goku, Chi Chi & Bulma: Saiyans of Earth – Episode Six The Saiyan Saga Part Two Triumphant And Tragedy

Earth, afternoon

"Everyone knows their role in the plan?" Piccolo asked. The other Z Fighters indicated their affirmation. "Good, remember no matter what happens stick to the plan."

From right to left were the Z Fighters were lined up: Tien Shinhan, Chiaotzu, Chi Chi, Goku, Bulma & Yamcha. The three Saiyans wore matching wristwatches on their right arms, Behind the first row, several feet away on a small rise stood Piccolo and Krillin. At Krillin's feet sat two large cream-colored jars covered in ornate blue symbols.

"I'm glad Gohan isn't here." Chi Chi said softly to herself. Her tail twitched nervously.

With great insistence, she had convinced everyone that Gohan should remain on the sidelines. He was safe in the Ox Kingdom with her father. Besides if she and the others could not deal with this pair of evil Saiyans what hoped did a partially trained boy have (regardless of his heritage or potential)?

The Saiyans each emerged from a space pod identical to that which had brought Raditz a year before. One was a huge hulking bald brute the other a short spiky-haired fellow who wore a sour expression. The duo surveyed their surroundings without comments for several moments. It was soon apparent to everyone that the smaller of the two was in charge when the big guy finally spoke.

"Vegeta this place is a dump." The big one said.

"Indeed it is, Nappa." The smaller one said. "Let's learn a little bit about our opposition, shall we." He activated his scouter he then laughed. "Pathetic, none of them have a power level greater than roughly 7,000. Only a weakling like Raditz could be slain by such lacking opponents."

"Look Vegeta a Namekian? I wonder what it's doing here?" Nappa said pointing at Piccolo.

"Nappa with two female Saiyans present, one all be it an obvious mutant due to her obscenely unusual hair color," Vegeta said.

"Hey," Bulma said bristling at his derogatory comment.

"Only you would notice a lone Namekian lurking in the background." Vegeta scoffed ignoring the indignant Bulma.

"You can leave our planet in peace, or be destroyed. It's your choice." Chi Chi said. If these Saiyans understood only force that is how she would talk to them.

"My, my, aren't you the feisty one," Vegeta said. He added with a predatory grin. "I'll enjoy breaking your spirit before I claim you for my own. I'll show you how a real male treats a female."

"Wouldn't we be a man short for such a demonstration?" Chi Chi said with a smirk.

"Haha, ha, ha, she's got you there Vegeta. You are kind of short." Nappa laughed until Vegeta shot him a withering glare, "sorry, Vegeta."

"Enough," Vegeta barked. "You'll pay for your insolence soon female. Nappa, deploy the Saibamen and we'll be done with these insignificant pests."

"Sure thing Vegeta," Nappa said.

Nappa produced six seeds that he planted in the ground. The Z Fighters watched with mounting dread until Piccolo said to take action. Goku, Chi Chi, Yamcha, and Tien all unleashed Ki blasts destroying four of the seeds before they could grow. Krillin meanwhile readied two Destructo Discs that eradicated the remaining two Saibamen an instant after they emerged from the ground.

"Unbelievable," Vegeta said in shock.

"If their toys are anything to go by, these guys aren't so tough," Yamcha said. "We can take them." Yamcha leaped forward closing the distances in seconds.

"No, Yamcha, remember the plan!" Piccolo warned.

Yamcha bounded forward. He aimed a flying punch at Nappa's huge head. Before Yamcha could make contact, however, Nappa grabbed him around his neck.

"What should I do with him, Vegeta?" Nappa asked.

"Kill him," Vegeta said nonchalantly.

The other Z Fighters watched in horror as Nappa casually snapped the neck of the struggling Yamcha. Nappa tossed his dead body aside. Despite Piccolo urging everyone to remain calm and hold formation, everything went to hell. Yamcha's brutal death caused emotion trump reason.

Tien, Chiaotzu, Chi Chi, Goku, and Bulma swarmed forward. Bulma temporarily blinded Nappa with a close-range Solar Flare attack. Tien did the same to Vegeta who growled in anger while rubbing his useless eyes. While Chiaotzu knocked Vegeta back several hundred feet with a powerful psychic attack Goku & Chi Chi unleashed twin Kamehamehas on Nappa. When the flash of light from their tandem attack faded, they were shocked by Nappa's resiliency. Nappa might be in very bad shape but he remained alive, if barely. His smoking form wobbled around as he clung to consciousness.

"Now, Krillin!" Piccolo shouted. At Piccolo's signal, Krillin used the Mafūba or Evil Containment wave to captured the greatly weakened Nappa within one of the two large jars.

Our heroes joy was shorted-lived. Vegeta moving so fast they had no time to react dispatched Chiaotzu with a Ki blast. Tien ran to his partner's side. He cradled Chiaotzu in his arms while the diminutive warrior breathed his last.

"Don't despair. I'm be sending you to join him momentarily." Vegeta gloated.

Vegeta pulled Tien roughly to his feet by his neck. He then kneed Tien in his stomach causing him to double over in agony. Vegeta then took a couple of steps back and used his Galick Gun for the first time. Tien was vaporized by the blast as was Chiaotzu's body which lay at his feet.

"You and your ragtag group of misfits should have concentrated on me, Kakarot," Vegeta said grinning at Goku who glared at him in return. "Nappa is far weaker than I, plus, he's always been a bit of a fool. If you attacked me first, you might have stood a chance. Come now, face your destiny with Saiyan pride, assuming you have any."

"Once I've slain you I might take one of your females as my own, perhaps both." Vegeta gave a mirthless chuckle. "I have no idea how a weakling such as you has survived this long much less gained a harem, if a tiny one, but your story ends today. I, Vegeta, Prince of All Saiyans decrees it. Oh, and before I forget." Vegeta shot a well-aimed Ki blast at the empty jar shattering it much to the dismay of the surviving Z Fighters. "I won't have our confrontation cut short by dishonorable Earthling trickery. Nappa can remain in his prison for the time being. I may free him if I'm in a charitable mood after our encounter."

Goku, Chi Chi, and Bulma exchanged glances. After nodding at each other, they encircled Vegeta who stood socially between them. The trio attempt to get the better of Vegeta but failed. He was quick oh so quick. He dodged or blocked nearly every attack they sent his way for the next few minutes straight. The few kicks and punches that landed barely phased Vegeta who continued to smile throughout their encounter.

"This isn't working," Bulma said in frustration.

"I know," Chi Chi grumbled.

"What should we do, ladies?" Goku half asked half wondered.

"Twilight Time," Bulma said. Goku and Chi Chi immediately understood Bulma's meaning.

They activated their wristwatch type devices. The eyes of our trio of heroic Saiyans turned red. They growled as their bodies swelled with muscles and covered with fur. Their clothing tore to pieces as they grew rapidly.

Vegeta was startled by what he saw. These three weaklings were turning into Ōzarus but how!? There was no full moon visible and it was broad daylight! Where was their moon ball? Was it invisible?

Soon the Prince of All Saiyans was surrounded by three angry Ōzarus who wanted to rip him limb from limp! Vegeta avoided the swipes from their might paws until a blue-furred paw struck him from behind. The black-furred Ōzaru fired her blast of mouth energy at the stunned Vegeta injuring him.

"Uhhh, very well cheaters, two can play at this game." Vegeta groaned. He activated the moonlight sphere on his belt and transformed.

Vegeta once again had the upper hand if not in numbers certainly in terms of overall power and skill. Unlike his foes, Vegeta had trained for years using the Ōzaru form rather than months. He easily tackled and tossed the others around destroying everything in their path.

"What do we do?" Krillin asked. He and Piccolo had fled a safe distance away. They watched the mayhem unfold.

"You watch, You wait, You strike when the time is right. I'll try to give you a signal," Piccolo said.

"What about you?" Krillin asked.

"It's high time I got directly involved," Piccolo said taking off his weighed cloak and turban. "Bulma said her moon watches would transform them for roughly ten minutes before the effect wears off. I'm not sure when ten minutes is up if that moon ball Vegeta is using will affect them or not, but I can't risk that it won't. There is too much at stake. I'm going in."

Piccolo grew to giant size. He tackled Vegeta grabbing him in a bear hug from behind. Piccolo held Vegeta while the other Ōzarus pummeled him. Vegeta did not like this development one bit. With a mighty roar, Vegeta broke free. He swiped Piccolo off of Piccolo's feet with his tail. Vegeta then poured forth his energy breath on Piccolo who winched under the assault.

Bulma clawed at Vegetas's back tearing loose several large chunks of fur-covered flesh. Vegeta howled backhanding Bulma with his paw. Goku and Chi Chi took the opportunity to dogpile Vegeta. Having recovered somewhat from Vegeta's vicious strike, Bulma struggled to her feet. She ran over and punted Vegeta in his snout leaving his mouth bloody. Enraged by this latest insult, Vegeta forced Goku & Chi Chi from his person. He speared Bulma with his body. The two rolled around scratching and biting each other.

"I'll put you in your place, weak mutant female!" Vegeta roared.

"And where is that prideful male!" Bulma roared back.

"Beneath me," Vegeta roared rolling on top of Bulma.

Vegeta pinned Bulma's hind paws with his own. She briefly squirmed but could not break free given his superior strength and leverage. They stared into each other's crimson eyes. Without warning, Bulma bit Vegeta's shoulder but rather than say head-butt her Vegeta bit her neck in return. The pair started making mewing sounds as they nibbled on each other much to the surprise of Chi Chi and Goku who were temporarily at a loss, not so Piccolo who pulled Vegeta off and threw him away.

Vegeta sprang up almost at once. He charged Piccolo who held his ground. Glancing over his shoulder, Piccolo noticed that Chi Chi, Bulma, and Goku were beginning to revert. Dammit, the watch and ball effects must be mutually exclusive somehow. There was only one chance left.

"Krillin, Low Cut!" Piccolo said as he grappled with a greatly annoyed Vegeta.

Krillin quickly generated his third Destructo Disc of the day. He tossed it at Vegeta's lower body. It found its mark. Vegeta's tail was severed just above his buttocks.

Vegeta almost instantly reverted to his standard form but not before be broke free of Piccolo long enough to blast the reverted Chi Chi and Goku with his full-force energy breath incinerating them. Not giving reverted Vegeta time to flee or otherwise react, the still giant Piccolo clapped his hands together crushing Vegeta between them. The sickening crunch of multiple bones was heard. Vegeta's badly mangled body fell to the ground far below where he lay moaning. Piccolo shrunk down and ran to the side of his charred adopted sister and brother-in-law.

"There is nothing we can do. They're gone." Said Bulma who was nude and heavily bruised from her ordeal said. she had crawled to her friends. Krillin landed nearby tears of anguish and frustration in his eyes.

Unnoticed by the mourners, Vegeta made an agonizing crawl back to his pod and escaped. This day was a wash but at least he was still alive. Let what was left of the late Kakarot's feeble band have that big oaf Nappa. A true Saiyan left the weak to their fates.

The Other World sometime later

"Please approach the check-in station in an orderly fashion, no shoving or cutting in line!" A small blue man in a business suit with a megaphone said as a line of luminous blue-white balls passed along a highway build above the clouds. "Hey, you that's enough you get back in your place right now!" He ordered a ball that tried to cut in line. "Move along, proceed in an orderly fashion, no shoving!" The road led to an East Asian style temple with five green pagoda type towers the middle tower was by far the largest.

Inside of his castle, the great King Yama, Lord of the Dead, had been briefed by his underlings regarding the present situation. "That is where we stand right now King Yama. I have reason to believe that the tyrant known as Frieza, son of the infamous King Cold, stands a good chance of becoming immortal on Namek by use of its Dragon Balls in a few short months unless we take action. For this reason, we humbly ask you to allow the party from Earth to seek training from King Kai himself, with your blessing of course. I fear there is little hope for the universe unless they receive King Kai's training." Kami said his head bowed respectfully. Besides him stood Goku, Chi Chi, Yamcha, Tien & Chiaotzu a halo over each of their heads indicated his deceased status.

"Hmmm, well, they certainly have a service record which merits letting them attempt to reach King Kai. Although three of them did live questionable lives at one point they have changed their ways. And they did sacrifice their lives selflessly. But are they truly prepared to travel along Snake Way? The journey shall be a long and arduous one they could nay they probably will fail, many have before them. Tell me are you prepared to face such an unforgiving challenge?." King Yama said. King Yama was an enormous red-skinned bearded man with horns dressed in a business suit he sat behind an equally enormous desk flanked by his blue-skinned underlings who also wore formal business attire.

"Yes, King Yama they are," Kami answered for the group.

"Are they, now?" King Yama wondered. King Yama looked through a stack of papers for a moment their quest seemingly of little immediate concern to him.

"Hey does everyone end up here when they die, Kami?" Goku asked seemingly unconcerned with King Yama's dire warnings or Chi-Chi telling him to hush.

"That's right?" Kami said annoyed by Goku's interruption.

"Everyone, huh?" Goku persisted.

"Yes, everyone comes to this check-in station and King Yama and his agents decide what to do with them after that," Kami said gritting his sharp teeth. "Now be quiet, Goku," Kami snapped.

"Is this guy strong? If so, maybe we should train with him instead of King Kai? What do you think Kami?" Goku babbled on.

"King Yama is much to busy to take pupils, plus, King Kai is much stronger than him," Kami whispered to Goku.

"I heard that Kami you little weasel! I'll keep what you just said in mind when I pass judgment upon you!" King Yama roared glancing up from his paperwork which he then set aside.

"Aw, sorry sir I had no idea your ears were so big er I mean sensitive," Kami said flustered. "What I meant to say was I ah..."

"Kami you're starting to bug me," King Yama warned with a scowl.

"Ah sorry, sir," Kami said apologetically.

"Well, I'll forgive you this time." King Yama said. "As for you five." He pointed at the dead warriors. "You can try to reach King Kai if you so desire, although I'd advise against trying as many have failed in the attempt, as I've already said." He paused for a moment again looking at his papers. "Wait outside, I'll send a guide to help you on your way soon. Oh, and be very careful not to fall off Snake Way. Should any of you fall off there's no coming back even I won't be able to help you then." They gulped at the ominous warning.

"Stick to it. Don't let Snake Way ware on your mind. Remember what's a stake for all of us and the universe." Kami advised leading them outside.

To Be Continued

Next up – The Namek Saga

Author's Note One -

Despite his continuous training with Chi Chi and co. Goku is not quite as strong as he was in canon by this point because he has not died yet. Goku is more skilled but somewhat less powerful, however, that is about to change for obvious reasons. The upside is Chi Chi is nearly on par with Goku due to her Saiyan nature and continued training and Bulma is not so far behind them she could not catch up if she so desired.

Author's Note Two -

The Dragon Balls of Earth cannot be used to resurrect our lost heroes (at least not yet). Remember, if one does not want to be affected by a wish they can resist it (as seen in canon with Goku). Also, Chiaotzu cannot be brought back either way. A trip to Namek is in the cards no matter what, especially once Kami informs the others of his plans.
