What if Son Goku left with Raditz

Animeslave: I realise I should not put complete until I posted all chapter. But it is not far away from a closure now.

Katonie: Glad you like it. Thanks for the comments. The conclusion is soon.


Warning: character death.



Goku and Vegeta appeared abruptly on Earth. The soil smelt like smoke. The mountains had collapsed and the woods disappeared. It looked like a battle had already happened. Goku’s eyes widened in horror. Does that mean all my family and friends are dead?



He left Vegeta and dashed to mount Baozi, finding his little house collapsed. “Gohan! Chichi!” Goku shouted even as tears began to choke his voice, he could not believe this was the first sight of his home after so long. “Oh god. Gohan, Chichi, please answer me.”



Vegeta had followed his lover but now stood aside, watching Kakarotto searching for his family frantically. He never saw the always-happy young Saiyan so anguished and upset. His heart churned from the sadness coming from Kakarotto. But this was not the worst part. The worst part was he suddenly realized he was not the only important person to Kakarotto. His heart sank—he had a mate before. How am I going to face this?

“Arrrrhhhhh!!” Vegeta started at the angry shout from Kakarotto before quickly jumping to his location, finding Kakarotto hugging an immobile female, who clearly was already dead. “Chichi, ch………….” Kakarotto could not cry out a meaningful word. Vegeta carefully approached his lover and patted his back soothingly, trying to comfort his lover’s loss. The other Saiyan shook under his hand, which made his heart squeeze tighter.



A little whimper came from the corner of the room. Kakarotto stifled his crying immediately and listened attentively. He looked around and found a little frame moving. “Gohan!” He carefully put down Chichi’s body and jumped to Gohan, who was still moving. “Daddy!” Gohan cried out. “Some bad guy came and took great-grandpa’s dragon ball.”



“Sh… Gohan, stop talking. Vegeta, do you still have the beans I gave you?” Vegeta took out the beans hastily and gave them to Kakarotto. Gohan came back to health quickly after Goku fed him a bean.



“Now, tell me,” Goku choked back a cry. “What had happened?”



“A white alien and a green alien and pink alien came over. They asked for the dragon ball. Mum told them to get out of our home. The white skin alien shot a blast at Mum and killed her. I tried to protect her but I could not.” Gohan started to cry again.



“No worries, boy. I am back. Leave that to me. Stay here.” Goku wiped his tears and walked out of the room. He stood in front of the collapsed house, threw his head back, with an ear splitting howl he exerted his ki to maximum, blowing dust and rock up to the sky.



Moments later, Frieza showed up with Zarbon and Dodoria. Zarbon was holding 7 dragon balls, apparently they had found them at the cost of all Earthlings’ lives, but had not figured out how to use them yet. “Well well. Let’s see who is here! General Kakarotto, aren’t you supposed to be purging Namek now? What is your business here? You know the rules for disobeying warriors; they are executed.”



Kakarotto stared at Frieza, hatred filling his eyes. “I never hated anybody in my life, you are now the exception.” With that he rushed forward, his right fist like iron, smashing it directly into Frieza’s face. No warm up, no warning, a true fight, with the intension to kill.

Frieza tumbled backwards, shook the dizziness out of his eyes, “Woohoho. You are very strong monkey. I have to say you are the strongest I have even seen. But,” he smirked, “You have not seen anything from me yet.” With that Frieza transformed to his second level. His body bulged out, from his small frame to a bigger one, which towered over Kakarotto. His strong tail swiped across and hit Kakarotto’s legs. “You are still far less powerful than me.”



Kakarotto fell back hitting the ground headfirst. Blood dripped and covered his eyes, making his vision red. “You killed Chichi, I will not let you get away with it!” He jumped up and double kicked Frieza’s head. Frieza evaded the first foot, but did not realize there was second following. He was kicked on the head, which made his ears ring.



“Wow. You, monkey, are really strong. I cannot let you live. You might eventually be a threat to me.” Frieza jumped even with Kakarotto in the air, his fist ramming towards the Saiyan’s ribs, but it was caught before it could connect by Goku’s fist, who stared at him with an extremely angry and intense gaze. Frieza smirked. His tail swiped again, hitting Kakarotto on the back, breaking several bones, and felt his opponent coughing blood on his face, and grinned evilly, “How does that feel?”



Kakarotto kneed the tyrant’s ribs that had been left open to such an obvious attack before jumping back to nurse his wounds. He could hear ribs cracking and smiled just as viciously. “That felt good.”



While he retreated through the air, panting and watching Frieza, he checked his body and found he had several broken bones. Frieza seemed to be in pain too.



It seems I can kill him, as long as I can last at this level. Afterwards, I just need to use dragon balls to revive Chichi and others. With that he jumped up again, despite his wounds and rushed Frieza with both fist, slamming them on both sides of Frieza’s face.



Frieza spit out blood and several broken teeth. “Okay, it is time to show you monkeys my true powers.” With that Frieza transformed yet again. This time smaller, but Goku could sense it was a more powerful form.



He kicked Kakarotto away with ease and laughed manically, “You thought you could deal with me? You monkeys are so wrong. Nobody could even deal with my first level before you. However, I have to give you some credit for lasting so long.”



Vegeta was angry. He saw his lover was tossed away liked a rag doll. “Kakarotto!” He jumped over to Frieza to stop him advancing further towards Kakarotto. “You have to kill me first. He is mine. “



“Oh, Prince Vegeta! I knew you always wanted to rebel against me. I just did not realize you had finally found the balls to do so. But still, you are too weak. Big mistake.”



“HArrrhhhh!” Vegeta roared and jumped forward striking at his antagonist’s head.

However, the tyrant dismissed it easily and punched Vegeta out of the way. “You need more time to become stronger. Pity you were too impatient.”



Frieza began walking again to finish Kakarotto once for all. His steps came to a halt when a blood covered Vegeta emerged in front of him. “I told you, you have to kill me first. And I am not dead yet.”



Frieza was surprised at Vegeta’s persistency. “Nobody has suffered a blow from my third transformation and survived. Well, if death is your wish I will grant it.”



Frieza rammed another fist into Vegeta and the prince was thrown to Kakarotto’s side, creating a huge crater as his body landed unchecked.

“Haha. “ Frieza clasped his hands. “The game is over.” He raised one of his hands and a laser like ki attack appeared at his finger. “Kakarotto, now you die with Earth and all it residents.” He sent the laser beam ki towards Kakarotto’s chest.



“NO……….!” Vegeta jumped up and used his body to cover Kakarotto by instinct. Frieza’s laser penetrated his heart through his back and crossed into Kakarotto’s body, but it missed the younger Saiyan’s heart.



“Vegeta!!!” Kakarotto could not describe the feelings surging through him. If Chichi’s death had caused sorrow then Vegeta’s caused despair, a feeling of being damned forever – never to be happy again. “NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO………………………………..!” He cried, “Please don’t die on me, please!”



Vegeta coughed out some blood, knowing his time was not long. A penetrated heart; even a magic bean could not cure that type of injury. He used his last strength and spoke, “Kakarotto, there is something I want to tell you. Our planet, Vegeta-sei, was destroyed by Frieza. The only goal of my life has been to destroy him to revenge our planet, until you showed up.” Vegeta smiled weakly, blood covering his teeth and leaking over his lips. “Those were the best times of my life. No matter what happens, please remember, I love you, till the end of my life.” With that, Vegeta struggled to pull out another bean and pushed it into Kakarotto’s mouth then fell dead against Kakarotto’s chest.



“NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” Kakarotto howled, facing the sky, mouth wide open, tears trailing down his cheeks. “Vegetaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”



He clutched the unmoving small body and didn’t know how much more sorrow his body could take in such a short period of time.



“Well, well.” Frieza clasped his hands. “This is the most touching love story I have ever seen. Once you are finished crying, monkey, can we get back to business? We are in the middle of fight, for god’s sake.”



Kakarotto turned his head, eyes filled with fire. He had never hated one person so much in his entire life. The hate and sorrow was so strong that he could feel his body changing, transforming. He stood slowly, still holding Vegeta’s little frame in his arms, and howled to the sky. Ki coursed through his body and veins, just like the time Zarbon had hurt Vegeta. The only difference was this time the raging, unbridled ki broke something, just like a tsunami hitting a damn at the coast that was never designed to weather such a storm. The ki was running turmoil in his body, rushing through some limits he had not even recognized existed in his normal exercises, rebounding and converging with more ki, filling him with energy. His clothes billowed up by his ki, his eyes turning teal, his hair turning gold. Is this what Sagi meant about super saiyanjin? His mind wondered, but his heart could not care less. There was no meaning without the ones he loved. All he needed to do was to kill the devil in front of him so he could avenge his lover.



He put Vegeta’s body down carefully and jumped back into the sky, his mind determined and eyes straight. “Let’s finish it.”



Frieza was in awe. Is this the legendary super saiyajin? God I should have killed him earlier. But this is not the time to worry. He can’t defeat me yet.



But Frieza was wrong, very wrong. Kakarotto’s power had increased exponentially. His own power dwarfed by the super Saiyanjin’s.



Kakarotto dismissed his hit easily and it barely left any scratches. Once Kakarotto struck, Freiza felt like mountains, oh no, planets had been thrown at him. He could not defend himself at all. Once he pulled himself out of a huge crater he found himself facing a huge shining ki blast. Kakartotto behind the ki blast was like a god sentencing his death. “This is your result for killing innocent people.”



“Arrrrrrrr…………………………” Frieza’s voice was lost in the huge ki blast as it engulfed him. He became ashes that were blown into the universe to float with other stardust.



Kakarotto changed back to his normal form and walked to the stunned Zarbon who was still clutching the dragon balls tightly. He said, “Give me them to me.”



Zarbon was stunned, “Who are you?”



Remembering the spell casted by Sagi, Kakarotto just took the balls from the green skinned alien. He turned to face to his son, who was looking at him in awe. “Dad, what was that?”



He could not help a smile. Gohan might have the ability to do that as well. “I will tell you later. Now come around, let’s wish your mum and Vegeta and others back.”
