{Wastelands}
"Oh Raditz, you really want to do this? Why don't we play some tag? I promise I will be gentle."
A rough voice is heard coming from a bald tall guy, as his tone is one full of sarcasm as he looks at the one some meters in front of him who's smiling.
"I think this is better, way more fun also, don't you think?*grins*"- Getting ready in his boxer stance he lower his knees a bit.
As he gets ready the other party laugh loudly.-" Ahahahah! Okay~! Then let us play another then, its name is! Slap the Raditz!!"
*FUUUUUSH!*
Putting his foot forward he kicks towards Raditz with a huge smirk in his face, after all, for him, he already won.
'Your overconfidence will be your doom, but also stupidity.'- Getting ready to intervene the wall of muscles Raditz tenses his body and gets ready to attack as the taller goes for a jab.
'*smile* But let's have some fun then!!'

{ Some time before; Wastelands; 05:38 p.m}
Around this time was when Mumei had woken up, and was still around her mother's grave, but also is when the three aliens that were sitting there in the wasteland waiting for their enemies to finally arrive.
"!!, They took their time getting here huh."- Getting up from his position, that you guess it? Nappi- Meditating.
Getting ready, Raditz too who was just staring at that direction for the last hours did so too, and started stretching his arms, then his legs and neck.-" Well, guess it's starting, it's been a minute since I fought a battle that wasn't for training."
Their year of training made Raditz notice, ranks are pretty retarded.
His brother achieved beyond what a low level could, his father also showed him that, and now he was the next in that list.
" That's to show, how much I can pummel you down, Nappa."
**UUUUSH!**
* * Tap**Tap* *
Two armored man just land in front of them after flying at super speeds that young Gohan had a bit of difficulty to follow, but he had confidence he still could keep up.
Walking forward, the once part of the duo gives them a warm welcome.-" Oh, hey guys, how it has been in space? Because I tell you, here is going to get way worse."
Both the two other Saiyans taken back by this, click on their scouters.
*Bep!*
"*Grins*, Oh Raditz! One thousand and nine hundred! It seems you got stronger than a Saibaman, Congratulations on that, now how about you try getting stronger than two?"- Vegeta with his arms still crossed stares at the long haired Saiyan.
' So he didn't really die, and joined his brother, foolish idiot, will make sure he dies too, this time then.'
Seeing they really can't sense power, Raditz will be having the time of his life here, he stretches his right arm forward towards Nappa, and points a finger at him.
" Hey Nappa, what about a game? A battle? For the 'old' days, but this time, well be going a different route I may say"- As he asks for his battle behind him, Piccolo stared at Vegeta with wide eyes.
'He's strong, we really need those two, the humans are about to arrive, *looks at their side*, they may keep this guy busy while Raditz does his thing... grrr, me and Gohan should help too, it's too dangerous.'
Seeing the conflict in his face, Gohan was watching the situation and realizing how bad the situation was.
His aunt wasn't around, and his dad too.
And they had someone stronger than them right in front of him, well he didn't know the full power of his aunt, so he was not sure himself.
For all he knew her power could be what she showed, or something way beyond their understandings.
But their heads were taken back to the present by a loud laugh that ended in a cough.-" Well… well, the Saibaditz finally grew some balls, and now even wants to play after it! Okay then, just don't repent it after you start flying around!"
He was about to rush in, when Raditz put a palm up asking him to wait." You idiot, not here, let's head there *points at an open space*, it's far enough that we can fight, and don't worry about the audience."
Starting to fly to an open space about two hundred meters from where they were, Nappa nodded a followed.-" Yeah! We need to give a show! Named "One hundred shades of beating Raditzes! By Nappa!'' Hmm... going to remember that one."
A vein appeared on the one who was being reticulated, but he took a deep breath.-' No Raditz, he's provoking you, don't fall for it, you're going to punch him really hard later...'
Both descended on the ground and stared at each other for a second.
Meanwhile, with the other's.
Looking curiously at the boy who had a tail, Vegeta got to a conclusion that it must have been Kakarot's brat, and after seeing his power, he lost the interest and turned to the battle, but he didn't think he would call it a battle.
The two who were just stared, sighed in relief, seeing that the guy wasn't with that much hurry, and also turned to the fight between the two Saiyans.
'Raditz, you've grown way higher by now, don't you dare lose against that brute.'- Saying that, Piccolo got off his weights, if he needed to, he would have to jump in if something happened.
*Bepbep*
Looking at his scouter, the Prince didn't see any bigger increase that was noticeable, so he just smirked and continued enjoying his show.
*CLASH!!*
*YUUSH!!*
Huge waves of wind are fired as both Saiyans finally collide.
Nappa and Raditz are now both hand-to-hand trying to push one another, and what surprised Nappa, the other was actually pushing him back and doing so while smiling.
Seeing this as a sign he started to use more of his strength, pushing the other back for a second, but when he pushed with a bit of more strength.
*FUSH!*
"WHA!! OHHHH!"- His opponent disappears, and he goes forward almost falling to his face.
Getting his balance back he looks around trying to find him.-" Oouh, scared? Little Radi-*PAM* OAHHHH!!!"
And at the right moment, Raditz appeared to his side with a right hook straight into his face, sending Nappa flying back.-" This move is very useful.*smiles*"
Stopping his body from going even further by flying, Nappa puts a hand on his cheek and gave it a look, and his eyes widen.-' The idiot really made me bleed, *looks at Raditz*, It seems I was a bit wrong.'
*Tap*tap*
Getting back to the ground, Nappa spits some blood to the side.-" Heeeh~ It seems you got stronger! Maybe being worth three Raditzes? Or four?"
And that was the line, the other Saiyan appeared in front of the bald with a right sidekick.
*PAM!*
But was blocked by Nappa's left arm, but it did crack a little bit his armor.-" How about... no."
*CRASH!!*
"UGHH!!"
Changing his grip, he picked Raditz leg and smashed his body to the ground, and was going to do it again, when the Saiyan brought his other leg into action with a front kick right into the bald man nose.
*PAM!*
"GUHH!!"- Effectively making Nappa take some steps back with both his hands on his nose.
*uush*
Spinning around, Spiky put both hands on the ground and flipped back to his feet, breathing a little heavy, after having his whole torso pummeled to the ground with such a force.
'Our difference is small, but I am still on top! But this clown experience is something else too.'
Both Saiyans gave one look at the other and smiled.-" Ehehe, Little Raditz is growing! Took you long enough brat."
" What? Couldn't do shit before, turns out I had something stopping me from it, a disease or mutation, I don't know, and after getting rid of it, here we are."
That statement made both the Prince and Nappa eyes widen a bit.-" Wait, so your low power was just stopped being some disease or whatever? Geez, try to come with something a little more believable at least…"
The bigger one saying that, made the long haired one step up again and dash forward.-" AND NOW I AM LIVID TO USE IT AGAINST YOU!"
Getting in front of the other with a huge smile, Raditz punches forward with his right arm, Nappa blocks it again, but not giving time to rest, Raditz throws another.
*PAM!!*
"UuuuuGH!!!!!!!"
That hit directly into Nappa's chest, but planting his feet on the ground he only slides back.
"Okay... ya got me...*bep*bep*... Hm?!eight thousand!!! Ho-How!!? This thing must be broke!!!"- Getting his scouter out, he crashes it in his hand.
Vegeta seeing it for himself, widen his eyes.-" How could that scumbag get to this level so fast..."- A grunt from his side called his attention.
"That is the result of his training together with a help from a certain someone else, proves to you, that guys have been working hard."- Piccolo smiles a bit.
Turning his head back to the fight, the Prince looks at Raditz.-" Even if so, he still nothing more than a scumbag, he betrayed us, and that is something that will lead him to death one way or another, you weaklings think I can't see you're stealing time? But I shall let it, after all I think that it may be fun to destroy Kakarot in front of his older brother."
Smiling evilly the short Saiyan keeps watching the battle as the other two by his side grin a bit.-' We'll see about that shorty, we'll see...'
The green man, turns to the fight, as the boy looks at the terrifying man.-' You will be eating your words when dad beats you!'
*PAM!!*
"Hehe... Come again?"- Receiving a jab to the side of the face, Raditz just turns it back slowly to the man and bring his left arm from his hips.
*BAM!!*
'UGHH!! MY TONGUE!!!'- Hitting right beneath his chin, but not being done, he raises his right arm and throw it back to gain some more momentum and fires it forward with all his body.
*BAMM!!*
"UOHH!!*Spits blood*"- And while he puts both hands together, he elbowed right into Nappa's abdomen, digging in there.
Retreating his body, he took a step back.
*THUD!*
As the big man falls to his knees, with both hands on his stomach area, his eyes full of veins.
"Heh.... Who's the weakling now?"- Wiping some sweat, he gets ready to go in again, but his eyes bulge when Nappa smiles and looks at him and soundly opens his mouth not giving time for the Saiyan to react.
"DIEEE!!!!"- And fires a beam of violet Ki out of it, Raditz being too close to dodge puts both arms up in hope to defend against it.
*BOOOOM!!*
A huge explosion of violet of the Ki, and the blackness and brownish of the dust raises up in a sphere around the Older brother.
On the sidelines, Gohan almost jumps in.-" UNCLE RADITZ!! UGHH??!"- But Piccolo picks him by the collar, stopping him.
The boy looks at one of his teachers like asking why, but he sees his face, he was not worrying.-" Let it Gohan, it's his fight."
Using a very seriously tone for the boy to understand, Piccolo was not even blinking looking at the dust that was settling.
Getting the message, the boy lowered his head a bit, and after getting his resolve back, looked at the battlefield again.-'Uncle Raditz...'
A laugh came from their side, but both of them ignored it.-" See? Even if he's indeed stronger, once trash always trash, doesn't matter if he tried his best or whatever! That is a point, after all he should be already dead even before getting to this planet, but we kept around, since a pet is good sometimes y'know?"
Frowning his eyes deeply, Piccolo was shaking, both his hands in fists, and Gohan sawn this, and he too kept it to himself.-' You morrow... you don't understand... that guy there, let it go from his block head of a pride to get stronger, lowering his so-called pride, so he could exit that hellhole of an environment.
Someone who is willing to accept the bad past behind himself, and walk forward is someone who has Infinite growth ahead of them, and we are the proof, Raditz accepted it, I myself have done it too, we're warriors now, not some killing machines, if you think the strong are those who are merciless and those that were born strong.
*Side eyes Vegeta*, You're in for a surprise, Prince.'
The dust finally settles a bit for us to see a silhouette.
"Hehehe, it seems you need a hand there Raditz...."- Nappa gets ready as he sees the other Saiyan with one of his arms fully wounded.
His arm pieces were no longer even there, the arm that was above the other to protect himself, was hit with the full blast, wounding it badly, you could see some muscle parts showing because of the skin being so heavily damaged.
Moving his arms to his stance again, Raditz was frowning as the pain was something he was bearing with the need to scream, but he shut his mouth and got in his stance again.-" Ain't going down that easily you stupid."
*USH!!*
Appearing right in front of Nappa, he used his left arm that was better to throw an uppercut, *PAM*, It hit but only made the other Saiyan head move to the side.
Not stopping he used the same arm for a straight punch, and Nappa dodge this one, and brought one of his hands by his waist to hit Raditz right into the guts.
*PAH!*
"GUAHH!!!"
Making him spit some blood out into the other Saiyan armor.-" Haah... Now I will need to clean it later.... hey R-UGHHH!!!"
Jumping up, the long haired Saiyan gave one hell of a headbutt, finally making a loud *crack*coming from the bald Saiyan nose.
Putting both hands to stop the bleeding, Nappa was not paying attention at the moment Raditz jumped back gaining some space.
"Here...huff.... it's my welcome present!!"- Stretching both hands to each side of his body, and he flinches in having to move that bad arm.
*VUUUSH!!!*
Two pink colored spheres of Ki appear in each palm of his, growing denser and denser.
"What? NAPPA HURRY UP!!"- Vegeta letting his arms fall down and point at the bald one.
A certain green man just smiled as he tapped the half earthling shoulder.-" We worked together on this one, he wanted to know what was his brother favorite move."
Gohan's eyes widen at that, and a big smile shows on his face as he starts jumping happily.-" GO UNCLE!!!"
On the one's side, he was smiling with a hurtful smile.-" Ya see that Nappa? I've got some interesting life here the little I have been around. And let me tell you, I ain't exchanging that."
Bringing both hands together in front of him, he taps both spheres together making purple electricity go around it.
*VUUUSH!*
Both spheres fuse into one as he brings it to the right side of his waist, in a peculiar stance.
Nappa finally fixing his nose, looks forward at the man who's already almost firing his attack, and seeing his opportunity move his right arm back and fires forward a blast of white energy.-" I DON'T THINK NOT!! SAIBADITZ!!!"
As the blast rapidly approached, it only made Raditz smile wider.-" Let's see then.... Sunday.....KAMEHAMEHA!!!!"
*USHHHHHH!!*
Overpowering completely the blast Nappa fired, it continued at incredible speeds, making the bald one stare only in awe at the approaching beam of death.
"Holly.... I should have been..... AN DIRECTOOOOOR!!!!!!"
Being engulfed in the blast, it flew all the way to one of the mountains carrying a screaming Saiyan.
*BOOOOOM!!!!*
Totally ending any traces of it being there, and only a dome of power and destruction in its place.
Seconds later, stopping his attack.
*THUD!*
Raditz falls to his back, totally wasted, he tries his best to look at where his nephew was, and having a smile he rose his only good arm on a thumbs up.*Thud* Only for it to fall down back in place shaking, all his strength was on that attack.
Before anyone could be happy, a certain someone was happy too, but was also in rage.-" HOW!! HOW COULD THE LOWEST LEVEL SCUM LIKE RADITZ END NAPPA!!?!? THAT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE!!!"
Almost getting his hair out, the Prince was outraged at such income, that to everyone's surprise he aimed his arm to the fallen Saiyan.
"Eheheh... I GUESS I WILL END THE JOB THEN!! LIKE THEY SAY, WANT SOMETHING DONE? DO IT YOURSELF!!"
And on the next second he was already almost firing a blast, but it seems fate doesn't like him very much.
*BOOM!!*
A yellow ball of Ki collides with the Saiyan face, firing him to the side with an explosion, but not doing much besides knocking him back.
Spinning in the air while gritting his teeth, Vegeta looks at his new guest and smiles even more wickedly-" OUH!! Guess I have other things to use as anti stress medication!!"
Descending to the ground, a group of people had finally arrived, helping their new friend while the other two who were already here didn't have time to react in time.
"Man... that didn't do anything! And I was using Neo!"- A long haired man with the turtle school Gi, Yamcha.
"Yeah, but don't sweat it, we can work with something here."- A bald small guy with six dots in his head, and no nose, also using the turtle school Gi, Krillin.
"This guy... isn't a joke, we better go full out from the start.-" Another bald dude, this time with a third eye in the middle of his forehead, as clothes he uses a green Gi that covers only one side of his chest, Tienshinhan.
"Really... I can try to stop him... but don't think it will work much..."- A small white pale levitating dwarf, with a white tank top and black pants, Chiaotzu.
They all landed next to Piccolo and Gohan, the whole gang was almost completed now.
Giving a look at Goku's brother state, Tien could already understand what happened.-" So he fought the other, and seems to have won if that mountain... well was a mountain, now it is just a hole with smoke going off it, is anything to go by."
The other's gave a look at the Saiyan who was resting, and the looked back to the last one sweating.
"Ehehe.... this is really not the best scenario…"- Krillin getting into his stance, is soon followed by the others.
"We just need to attack together, be careful to not hit one another, as of right now we don't have Senzus, Son said he was going to get them when he got back...*sigh*, try not to die until then."
Saying something that put everyone in even higher stakes, Piccolo was ready to dash in already.
"But if we die can't we be brought back with the Dragon Balls?"- And that, was the moment, Yamcha had made the biggest opsie he could ever do in his life.
The other's gave him a shocked look, making he looks at them confused.
"Ouh, now that's interesting, so there's something that can resurrect people in here? And the way the weakling said, it seems they do more than that.*smile*, I am going to see that after ending you all, prepare for my therapy section!!"

{ Karin Tower }
"WHAT YOU MEAN THEY'RE EMPTY!?!!"
A loud scream shook the whole small palace.
Karin just told Goku the senzus were not grown yet.-" Sorry Goku, but Yajirobe eat them all~nya, I can't remember who I gave some to, but they're all gonye."
Tapping his staff nervously on the ground, the cat master was embarrassed that at such a crucial moment he couldn't help.
"Oooh man... this is going to be way harder now... anyway, I need to go, cya master Karin!!*USHH!*"
Flying away with a red glow, leaving the cat there who just sawn the man disappear.-" nyaa.... They're really getting stronger and stronger, it's crazy~nya."
