Frieza sat up and looked at his father.
“Set a course for Earth, Father.” he said in a raspy voice.
“Planet Earth? Whatever for, my son?” King Cold asked.
“Because I’d like to blow it up.”
“Change course!” King Cold yelled to the crew.

************

I was sitting alone in the mess hall of Frieza’s ship. At the table across from mine, I heard the three men chatting.
“I heard our next stop is Earth.” said the man with brown hair.
“Why?” asked the blonde haired one.
“Well, you remember how Frieza got his ass kicked by the Saiyan guy, Gogo, or whatever his name was? Apparently he lives there and Frieza wants to kill him.”
I jumped up and ran to my cabin. ‘Now all I have to do is think of a way to get out.’

************

I pulled on my armor, latched my father’s sword to my back, and went to the door.
“I guess this will be the last time I ever come in here.” I whispered looking around my small room. My eyes stopped at the necklace on the dresser. The small pendant of the necklace had a heart in the center with two hands holding it and a crown on top of the heart etched into it. I slipped the long chain over my head and tucked it under my armor as I left my room. As I ran down the hall, I pulled my long black hair up into a bun on the back of my head and tried to tame my spiky bangs.

************

Vegeta, Piccolo, Yamcha, Krillin, Gohan, Tien, Chaotzu, and Bulma waited on the cliff for the moment when Frieza would show up. They had all, except Bulma, felt his power level coming towards Earth and had met here to see if it was true.
“He’s here!” Piccolo bellowed from the cliff over looking the valley below. A large circular disk descended from the sky moments later.

***********

As I entered the hangar of the ship, the commanding officer grabbed my by the neck and threw me up against the wall.
“You think just because your father was King Vegeta’s advisor you can waltz in here two minutes late? You’ve got a lot to learn, young lady. Get in line now!” He threw me down onto the ground. I got up and walked to my place in line. “We are about to land on planet Earth. Our orders are to secure the area surrounding the ship. Understand?”
“Sir, yes sir!” A man came in and started whispering to the commanding officer.
The man standing beside me leaned over and whispered in her ear. “Your lucky. He told us all that he was going to kill you.”
“Yeah right. Like that weakling could even catch me.” I replied.
“Move out.” the commanding office said. We marched out of the hangar with me bringing up the rear. As the soldiers fell into lines, I found a group of rocks and ran to the for cover. The commanding officer turned to his troops. “Hey! Where did that damned girl go?”
The man that was standing beside me spoke, “Sir, she went back inside. I think she was scared.”
“Argh! When I get my hands on that little bitch, she’ll never see the light of day again.”
Frieza and his father suddenly appeared beside the commanding officer.
“So this is the planet Earth. My, how very quaint. I will make his suffer for what he did to me! I will make this whole planet suffer!” Frieza yelled.
“Yes, do be quick about it. I’d rather not stay on this pathetic little mud ball. Not that I don’t just love it here, but I don’t see why we just can’t simple destroy the planet now.” King Cold said.
“You can be absolutely naughty, father. It’s impressive. And here I wondered where I picked up my knack for it.”
“I take great pride in the fact that I have taught you all the necessary skills of life. Use them well.”
“Indeed I will. For it just so happens that I have also learned from you the fine art of revenge. Allow me to demonstrate by vaporizing all of the Saiyans friends one by one.” Frieza started laughing. “And my oh my, won’t he be surprised when he returns home and finds no one here to welcome him but me.”

***********

The Z fighters, plus Bulma, climbed up the rocks to get a closer look at what was happening. Yamcha paused, “I don’t think I can do this, you guys.”

***********

“Now all of you, begin your search, and when you find them show no mercy.” Frieza yelled to the troops. I snuck around to the back of the ship, away from everyone, and flew up to a cliff.
“Yes sir!” They jumped up into the air but came crashing back down in pieces a few seconds later. A young man with purple hair descended from the sky.
“Oh, so you must be Frieza. I’ve been waiting a long time to meet you, face to face.” the young man said. He reduced Frieza’s army to nothing in mere seconds. “Now you two are going down.”
King Cold laughed, “One thing is certain, if nothing else, I’d say this creature is quite the comedian.”
“He is at that. I’ll tell you what kid, let me give you a piece of advise. ‘He who acquires his skills quickly is he who is first to perish’.”
“Thanks for the tip. Listen up, now I’ve got one for you Frieza. ‘Know your enemy’. You’ve already made some big assumptions about me and that’s a mistake that’s going to cost you dearly.”
“You insolent brat! You should really learn to control your tongue.”
“Just destroy him already.” King Cold said. “We haven’t got all day.”
“Father, have some patients, I just want to have a little fun if you don’t mind.”
“He’s right though. You don’t have all day, more like five minutes.” the young man said.
“Well that’s too bad, and here I’d made dinner plans.”
“So I’ve heard. Well sorry Frieza, but I’m canceling your date with Goku.”
“What’s a Goku?” King Cold asked with a confused look on his face.
“Father, please, I know your bored but try to keep up.” Frieza turned to the young man, “So I take it you know that worthless Saiyan?”
“By reputation, but we’ll meet soon.” the young man said.
“Oh, but don’t be so certain.”
“But I couldn’t be more certain, Frieza. Anytime now Goku will be coming home, and only one of us is going to be here waiting for him. Get it?”
“Definitely, as it so happens, I was just about to suggest that very thing myself. It’s so nice that you and I can finally agree on something. Don’t you think?”
“For once, you’re right.”
“Well then, I guess all that’s left is for me to decide how I’m going to annihilate you.”
“Enough kidding around. It’s time you understood who I really am. So I’ll tell you what, I’m gonna let you two in on a little secret. You’re about to find out what it’s like to fight a real super Saiyan,” he smirked. “and I’m not talking about Goku.”
“You crack me up kid, ha ha ha! I’ve never met anyone who’s laid it on quite as thick as you.” Frieza said. The young man only smiled as rocks and other debris flew away from him. His hair spiked up towards the sky turning yellow, and his eyes turned a vivid green. Frieza backed away, frightened.
“Is it something I said?” Without warning, Frieza threw a ki blast at the young man and he disappeared in the smoke cloud.
“Well, I’d say that was all rather anticlimactic. Wouldn’t you say? I mean the little runt certainly didn’t last very long, now did he?” King Cold asked, assuming the young man was dead.
“Well what did you expect? He was only a… a…” Frieza paused as the young man reappeared unscathed.
“I really hope that’s not the best you can do, cause if it is you better give up now. You can’t win, Frieza.”
“We’ll just see about that, boy. Take this!!” Frieza yelled, throwing another energy ball at the young man.
“Frieza, you’ll destroy us all!!” King Cold yelled. The young man stopped the ball and threw it behind him.

************

The Z fighters had just made it to the edge of the cliff overlooking the valley where Frieza’s ship was.
“Hey guys, what’s going on? I can’t see!” Bulma yelled from the back of the crowd. She pushed to the front. “What in the world happened down there, Yamcha?”

************

“It looks to me like you’re running out of tricks, Frieza.”
“This Saiyan is really something else.” King Cold remarked.
“Ok, that’s two. I’ll give you one more chance to hit me with everything you’ve got and then that’s it, strike three Frieza. Game over, you’re out.”
“It’s time we put an end to this.” Frieza said, calmly.

***********

I watched as Frieza rose into the air and formed a huge fiery orange ki ball in his open palm. A few seconds after he released it, I saw it engulf the purple haired man.

***********

The Z fighters watched the large ball sink into the Earth.
“Everyone get down!” Krillin yelled.

***********

I watched as the ki ball suck deeper and deeper into the ground. ‘This is it.’ I thought, looking down at Frieza.
“I’d rather be out here dying, than in there under your control.” I said quietly to myself. As I finished my sentence, the ball stopped and started to come back out. The young man appeared underneath it and Frieza shot a small blast at it making it exploded. All of a sudden, the young man appeared beside her on the cliff. He grabbed for his sword but stopped.
“Get back.” he said to her. “Hey Frieza!” he shouted at Frieza as he shot a ki ball at him. Frieza dodge it giving the man time to go for his sword. His sword made a strangely pleasing sound as he cut Frieza to bits and incinerated them.

***********

With Frieza gone, the Z fighters were left in awe as he killed King Cold.

***********

The purple haired man touched down on the cliff beside me again.
“What’s your name?” He asked me.
“Corbin.”
“You’re a Saiyan.”
“Yes, I escaped to find my guardian. His name is Prince Vegeta.” Recognition crossed the man’s face. Her black eyes searched his. His eyes told me that he knew Vegeta well, but he didn’t know who I was. People were chatting on another cliff close to us. I studied them and found Vegeta among there ranks. I flew over to him and bowed as low as I could.
“Prince Vegeta.”
“Corbin?” I stood and looked back at the man below us.
“I’m going to meet Goku. He’s going to be touching down about a mile south of here. If you wanna follow me, I can show you where.” He said and took off without looking back.
“Who’s Goku?” I asked Vegeta. “And what the hell are you wearing?”
