Chapter 19: Ch. 19: Invasion

The moment that the black clouds covered the sky, every fighter on Earth knew that the time had come. From Pigero to Piccolo, they all knew that the Saiyans were coming soon.

"Pigero." I told him. I'd been preparing Pigero for something a lot greater than the Saiyan's invasion. He didn't have a part to play in these next few events, but he was already roughly as strong as Raditz had been when he'd originally appeared, so I had him go to Kame house to wait the invasion out. Meanwhile, I headed to the wastelands where Gohan and Piccolo were training. With my power suppressed, those two would naturally be the first ones that Vegeta and Nappa found.

...

"Uh?" Everyone watched as Goku's halo disappeared from above his head. Now, both he and Raditz were both alive. Naturally, King Kai congratulated him.

"Your halo's gone. You're alive, kid!" Goku whooped in excitement at being alive again after a little less than a full year of being dead. "It's time, guys." King Kai and Gregory both gave them a few pieces of advice about the Saiyans, and Goku and Raditz in turn thanked King Kai for the new clothing that he'd given them.

Raditz, having decided to cast aside the Frieza force, was dressed in a red and black fighting gi that resembled Goku's in style, but had the same color scheme as King Kai's clothing. Both of them had King Kai's symbol on their backs.

"So long!" Goku shouted his goodbyes as he and Raditz blasted off along Snake Way. Shay watched them go with a smirk. Thanks to Shenron granting her modification to the wish that had originally brought Goku back to life, space and time would naturally warp around Goku and Raditz as they made their way down the road. No matter how long they went, their arrival time on Earth was set in stone, and Shay didn't have to do anything to ensure it.

"I guess my work here is done. Goodbye, Kai." Shay said.

"What work?!" King Kai complained... long after she was already gone, "Those two are stronger than you, huh, King Kai?" Gregory asked after they were alone.

"Maybe so, but that Raditz has absolutely no aptitude for comedy!"

"They're pretty good people, though." Gregory said.

"Goku's heart is as pure as gold, that's for sure. Raditz... He has a ways to go, but he's really trying." King Kai thought aloud.

...

At around a quarter till noon on a Sunday, two Saiyan space pods entered Earth's atmosphere... And stayed there. For fifteen minutes, they were suspended in time as the Earth rotated below them. Finally, the pods continued their descent, their momentum as if nothing had stopped them at all. The inhabitants of those pods would never notice the fifteen minutes that they had been stopped in time for, as they landed in the middle of a large field of corn.

Slowly, the pods opened, revealing two Saiyans. A short one with tall, spiky hair, in blue battle armor similar to Raditz's and a red scouter over one eye, and a larger, bald one wearing black battle armor and a blue scouter. The only hair on his head were his eyebrows and his fairly thin mustache.

"Seriously? Didn't we program these pods to land us in a populated area?" Nappa complained. Vegeta didn't answer, so he continued, "My neck is killing me, and I hate corn."

"Stop your whining, Nappa. Don't forget why we're here." Vegeta shut his 'advisor' up.

...

All across the world, the Z-fighters could feel the Saiyan's strength. Most of them were shocked. They were even stronger than they had imagined, they could just feel it. meanwhile...

"Mistress, they're so weak! Here, grape?" Shay had forced me to sit on her lap as she fed me grapes. She didn't seem impressed by Nappa and Vegeta's fighting power... At all. I let her indulge me, since she'd done her job so well. Honestly, her overbearing nature was a real relief, because something had been bothering me for a while, but I couldn't quite put my finger on it. We were fairly close to the spot where Piccolo and Gohan were preparing themselves for the battle, but we had both toned our sense-able ki down to nothing, so they couldn't tell we were here. Now that dad knew Shay, I couldn't be seen with her in public, and she didn't seem too interested in the idea of going back into my jacket so soon.

...

Since Shay'd used her energy to stop Vegeta and Nappa from landing in a populated area, Nappa didn't destroy anything this time. 

"Alright, let's first figure out who has the highest power level on this useless rock." Vegeta decided, "He'll be the one who finished off Raditz." They both turned on their scouters. Nappa's eyes widened in shock as he read the display. 

"More than half-a-dozen people on this planet have power levels over a thousand!" He exclaimed, "How is that possible?" 

"How should I know? Maybe they've been preparing for us... Not to worry. Let's start out by finding the strongest one." Vegeta told Nappa, who nodded in agreement. They looked around, analyzing the different readings on their scouters. Eventually, Nappa's scouter locked on to Piccolo and Gohan's readings.

"I just found two of them. They definitely have the highest fighting power on the planet." 

"Really?" Vegeta locked his own scouter on to the readings. One was around 1200, while the other one seemed to be around 1800 or so. Impressive for one that had struggled to defeat Raditz merely a year ago. "Good then." He realized, "This may be interesting after all."

They flew off towards the signatures.

...

Meanwhile, I'd convinced Shay to go back into my jacket, well... more like ordered her to do so, but it'd been something of an unintentional order that she'd chosen by herself to follow. I definitely hadn't forced her to follow my orders, she just did so naturally... excessively...

Anyways, after I'd dealt with Shay, I'd met up with Piccolo and Gohan on foot. Krillin'd gotten there at about the same time as me. 

'Shay, how long until Goku gets here?'

'They should get here in about an hour. I figured that would be enough time for you to destroy those Saiba men thingies.' Shay answered me.

'But it's not enough time for Nappa to kill Piccolo!' I reminded her, horrified.

I could feel Shay's dumbfoundment, 'I thought that you were using Raditz to avoid that?'

"Huh?" A gasp escaped my lips as Shay brought Raditz up.

'Explain. Now.' I asked Shay.


CREATORS' THOUGHTS
Aeon0 Aeon0

Gohan Anime PL: 1k, Now PL: 1.2K (Due to personality difference)

Piccolo Anime PL: 1.4k, Now PL: 1.8K (Due to Hanna)

Saibamen, Vegeta, Nappa, Tien, Yamcha, and Krillin should be about the same as they were in the anime, since Hanna didn't interact with them much.

Goku Anime PL: 9k, Now PL: 12k;

Raditz PL: 11k

Pigero PL: 800

Shay PL: 1 Googolplex

Hanna Restricted PL: 2,000, Hanna Portion PL (Base): 150 Septillion, Hanna Unrestricted PL (Base): 1,000 Googolplex

Grand Minister PL: 969 Googolplex (at max)

Core Girls AVG PL: 10 Septillion

Whis Unrestricted PL: 100 Septillion

The original versions PL are just what I could find. Pretty sure they're accurate, but not 100% sure. Just gonna go by them, though.

Hanna's Unrestricted (Base)PL doesn't really matter, since that's after absorbing the entire Core into herself, but I put it out there anyways. In her base form, at her absolute maximum, she'd be capable of fighting evenly with the Grand Minister at his strongest.
