Chapter three
Vegeta got inside the mansion. He walked after Bulma and saw some people there to greet them. “Hello my lady, Vegeta - sama” said Chichi as she went towards Bulma and took her cloak, then towards Vegeta and bowed to him, “Welcome to Briefs mansion, Vegeta - sama” continued Chichi, Vegeta nodded.
“Please Vegeta - sama, follow me” Kirilin led the way into the main hall. They sat together, but Yamcha wasn't there yet.
“Launch, have my father and Tian arrived yet?” asked Bulma. She noticed that there was some tension between them. `They are not comfortable with the whole situation' thought Bulma, `they are in complete agreement about the peace and Yamcha isn't here either.'
“No Bulma - chan, but he sent us a message telling us that he will stay in Gemma Castle for one more day ” lied Launch. Launch did what Yamcha had asked her to do, for Bulma must be in the dark for a while, they know that she will refuse the new situation.
“Oh, I thought it's only for one day! Well I think this will also go to your father, don't you think Vegeta - sama?” said Bulma.
“May be Bulma”, replied Vegeta. Bulma smiled and ordered dinner to be served. They ate and talked, and Bulma told everyone how Nappa scared them in the wood and got punished by Vegeta. They laughed and Bulma was happy. Vegeta stared at her and felt happy for her.
“ Shall I show you your place to stay Vegeta - sama!” asked Bulma.
“ Yes Bulma, lets go”, answered Vegeta and they raised together.
“ Excuse us people, and thank you for your hospitality, I hope our unit will end our differences and lead us to peace forever” said Vegeta, he felt the tension, but ignored it, they need time, so he let it be and got out with Bulma to his room.
Bulma leaded the way and told Vegeta that she has something to do and will come back soon, he nodded and waited for her in his room.
“ Chichi, where is Yamcha? Why didn't he come to dinner?” asked Bulma.
“ He's not here Bulma, I'm going to inform you when he arrives” answered Chichi.
“Ok Chichi, I'm going to change my clothes now, come and help me pick something”
“ Alright Bulma, lets go”
They went together to Bulma's room.
By that time Yamcha arrived, Goku informed him that everything was alright and, neither Vegeta, nor Bulma suspect in anything.
“By the way Yamcha, one of the Oujis is in the wood, and his name is in the scroll, what do you want us to do?” said Piccolo smirking.
“Who is he?” asked Yamcha.
“I believe he is Nappa, Yamcha - sama, according to what Bulma said, he is not far away” Piccolo answered him and waited for an action.
“Let us catch him first. As all of you know, Ouji's are professionals in magic. We have to know their abilities first,” Goku suggested.
“Why don't we use that girl, Anahita, for that? She's already with them, she'll be a good source of information” Kirilin suggested and Yamcha agreed to that.
“Ok guys, we're going hunting!”
“No wait!!” Chichi stopped them, “if all of us go, Bulma will be suspicious”
“She's right Yamcha, let me go” Goku offered to do the work, but Yamcha didn't agree.
“No, you're close to Bulma; she will feel your absence. Let Kirilin do the job, with his abilities, it will be a piece of cake”, Kirilin nodded and went.
Nappa was carrying a deer on his shoulders, but something caught his eye, he dropped the deer and went towards the body.
“WHAT THE HELL, he's Juurokugou!!!” Nappa checked on him to see how he was killed, he found that there were eight foot prints. “It must be 4 people, and one of them is a woman”, he heard something and looked around him to see that kirilin was standing in front of him.
“So you found your friend, hehehe”
“WHAT!! You did this to him, unbelievable, I thought we are in a peace treaty, why change in events?”
Nappa clinched his hand in anger, he couldn't believe that Briefs would break the treaty in this time, one week before Bulma and Vegeta get married.
“Your going to pay for what you did to Juurokugou!!”, with that he pulled his sword out and ran towards Kirilin attacking him. Kirilin stayed still and put his hand in front of him and mumbled then he duplicated into eight Kirilins. They were surrounded Nappa. He was confused , “what the hell is happening here?! Are my eyes playing tricks on me or am I seeing eight of them?!!” he attacked one of them, but cut through air.
“Hahahaha, if you want to kill me, you have to find the real me. But I can kill you with every duplicate of me here, hahahaha” said the eight Kirilins at once.
“SHUT the hell UP!”, he cut another one but without any luck. How can he knows who is the real one! He simply can't, but he has to try. He has to cut every one of them, so one of them will be the real one.
Kirilin was hiding on a tree branch watching every single move from above, he smirked and jumped towards Nappa stabbing him from behind. Nappa opened his eyes in pain and saw the sword coming out of his chest. `What a shame, death from behind! '. Kirilin pulled out his sword and Nappa held his face, but fell down and died.
“Ok, Nappa is dead, we have seven to go” he got back to the mansion. Yamcha smirked when he saw Kirilin; he crossed out Nappa's name from the scroll.
At Ouji hidden mountain
Tomma and Bardock were fishing without any luck; they were there for three hours without catching one fish. Tomma got bored and threw himself backward.
“ So Bardock tell me, where did you find that gorgeous girl? What was her name, oh yes Anahita, mmm what a sexy name!! You know Bardock if you get bored of her just give her to me, ok?”
Bardock didn't answer him, he was in a deep thought.
“Oh come on Bardock, don't tell me that you fell for her”
“Let it go Tomma, Anahita is mine and I have no desire to leave her now, and beside we have other things to think about”
“Oh, and what is that Bardock”, said Tomma sarcastically
“Like why Vegeta - sama and Juurokugou didn't come yet? He even didn't send us a massage to inform us anything, there is something wrong Tomma, and I can feel it”. Tomma thought of what Bardock said, it made sense,
“You're right, we have to do something, especially Vegeta's not here. What do you say if we go to Gemma Castle to find out anything?”
“Mmm, it's a good idea, but we have to act fast”
“Wait a minute, why we don't take Nappa with us, he's familiar with roads and will find a shortcut, with that we will save time” suggested Tomma.
“Good idea, but where is that moron now? I bet he's hunting like always”
“Don't worry, I'll send Silver moon to find him”
Tomma sat cross-legged and closed his eyes to connect mentally with Silver moon. `Silver moon, find Nappa and inform us of his place'. Tomma has a special bond with the white wolf, after 20 minutes of waiting; Tomma opened his eyes and gasped. “Silver moon found Nappa ~ d dead” he said that whispering; he looked up towards Bardock to find him closing his eyes and clinching his hands.
“Lets waste no more time Tomma, we have to know what's going on”, they both launched to the wood.
“If I'm not wrong, Nappa will give us a clue” Bardock told Tomma while running.
“I hope they didn't destroy it Bardock, you were right, there is something wrong”
They arrived to the place that Silver moon informed earlier to just find that not only Nappa was dead, but Juurokugou also.
“WHAT THE HELL! Juurokogou too, then where is Vegeta - sama?” said Bardock. Tomma was looking around but found nothing. Bardock checked on Nappa to find that he was attacked from behind. He found that his hand was looking like he was holding something `it's the clue' thought Bardock.
“Hey Tomma come here, look!” he pointed to Nappa's hand “looks like he pictured his killer after all”
They removed his arm to find the picture of his killer. They both get surprised. “Its Kirilin! b but why?” Tomma was shocked; he couldn't believe that Briefs will do such a thing in this time.
“Something is wrong. Tomma try to read Juurokugou's last memory. I'm sure its all connected with each other”
“WHAT! But Bardock it depends, I can't do it if he was dead for more than one day”
“Just try it, he's not that cold” Bardock was about to loose his temper, he has to know everything.
Tomma did what he was told and put his hands on Juurokugou's head, after a few seconds, his head fell down disappointedly.
“They have broken the peace treaty, and the war flared up once more, that's all I can take from his memory Bardock”
Bardock couldn't believe a word, and then Vegeta is in danger, Bardock thought. “ We have to inform the others, Vegeta's in danger”
“The hell they can put a hand on him, don't worry they can't harm him. Lets go back and inform the others” Tomma called out and two horses appeared. They rode and got back.
“Tomma, try to find out if Vegeta is alright”
“Ok Bardock!” Tomma has a power to communicate with animals, so he called out a bird to do that.
After one hour, they reached to Ouji's mansion and called out the other fighters: Raditz, Fasha, Juunanagou and Juuhachigou.
“What's so important to call us at this early time?” said annoyed Juunanagou, “you could call only Juuhachigou and let me sleep, then she would tell me what ever you wanted”
“Nappa and Juurokugou are dead, we're not sure about Vegeta - sama, but the peace treaty has been broken” Tomma told everyone in a calm voice so they can analyze every word of it. Every one gasped after what they heard.
“Oh no, Vegeta's there… with them… ALONE! God knows what they're doing to him, we have to get him back” Juuhachigou pointed out, she was worried about Vegeta.
“That's why we are here, we have to do something” Tomma couldn't imagine that it would go that far.
“Look everyone, we're not a hundred percent sure that the Briefs broke the treaty, I'm going to investigate” Bardock suggested, but Raditz didn't agree.
“No Bardock, you're tired, go and have some rest, I'm going to investigate. And besides, I can go to them without having anyone suspect in me”
Everyone agreed, “ don't worry, we'll get Vegeta out of there. Ok then, I'm going” Raditz was about to go but stopped by Fasha “Please! Be careful!”
“Don't worry Fasha, I will” he comforted her and hugged her.
“I'm coming with you Raditz, I already sent Oboro, the owl, to see if Vegeta is alright” Tomma was sure that his gift is useful, and besides, he is the only one who can connect with animals.
“Alright Tomma, lets go then”.
They rode their horses and launched towards Briefs swastika valley. In the woods they prefer to go on foot, then something caught their attention, they hid between the trees. It was a man, Raditz and Tomma nodded at each other and then Raditz jumped on him. He found out that this man is no one but Tian.
“What do you want Ouji ” he hissed to him.
“Actually, I want to know the truth. Is it right that the peace treaty has been broken and a war between us flared once more?” Raditz asked him while he was pushing on his head by his foot.
“AAAH, let go!” and then he released his black bind towards Raditz, but he moved back and pulled out his sword. It was not useful, the threads caught him and even with his sword he can't free himself.
“hahahah, looks like I'm going to cut you up into pieces. Don't worry it wont last long”, Raditz tried to free himself and realized that if he moves, the threads will cut him more, but he cant stay still, Tian will kill him anytime.
Tian was ready to cut Raditz, but Tomma came from behind and stabbed him. Raditz was free, and he finished Tian by stabbing him in his heart.
“That bastard cut me!” said complaining Raditz.
“What shall we do now Raditz?” asked Tomma after wiping his sword.
“Its obvious that the peace treaty has been broken, we have to go in there and get Vegeta out safely” then Raditz took his necklace out of his pocket and put it on, then looked towards Tian
“Shadow to Shadow, Face to Face. Great Shenlon give me the shape” with that spell he transformed into Tian.
“Wow Raditz, you amaze me, that spell, you got it from that white wizard in the mountains, right?” Tomma was pleased with the result.
“Yes Tomma, yes” answered Raditz.
Flash back
Raditz and Vegeta went for hunting; they heard there was a dragon in the mountain terrifying people, so they decided to kill it. They reached to the black mountain; it was where the dragon existed. They got deeper inside more and more until they found a cave.
“I'm sure the dragon is in here Vegeta”
“Shshshsh, be quiet” Vegeta whispered to him, then something caught their attention. It was a man, an old man.
“What is he doing here?” Raditz whispered to Vegeta. The old man saw them and nodded to follow him quietly. They did what the old man said.
“Free me and I will award you with something no other human has”
“Who are you old man and what are you doing here?” asked Vegeta
“I'm the great white wizard Kami, and I'm band with a powerful demonic black magic that makes me imprisoned here”
“Ok, how can we free you Kami?” said Raditz
“By killing the dragon”
With that they both thought about a plan to kill the dragon. First of all they made some noises to make the dragon come out from the cave. It came out after few seconds; it was huge, gigantic and green. They were terrified but pulled out their swords, they moved very fast around him, Vegeta stabbed him in his back but that was useless, Raditz stabbed him on his leg and it was the same. They tried one more time without any luck. The dragon was going to kill them, just then, the wizard shouted to use the sword in the cave. Vegeta got into the cave and found the sword while Raditz was camouflaging. Vegeta came out of the cave and in full speed and strength he cut the dragon's head killing him. Just then the spell around Kami disappeared.
“I thank you young men for saving and freeing me, and as I said I will reward you for your good job” he smiled and went towards the dragon and mumbled something and the head got burnt. Then he took dragon's teeth and made necklace out of it. He gave it to Raditz and told him how to use it.
Then he went toward Vegeta and pulled out a bag with 7 balls.
“What is that Kami” asked Vegeta confused, the wizard smiled and told him they're magic balls called dragon balls, he can use it only one time and it will disappear forever. So he waited for the right person. He told him that he feels he is a good person. He held his chest and mumbled something, then the balls glowed
“By the power of great Shenlon, GIVE ME THE POWER! Reverse, Reverse, Reverse”
Electric waves came from everywhere and entered Vegeta from his mouth, ears and eyes. He fell down. The whole situation was terrifying Raditz. Then everything was back to normal. Vegeta got up, he was confused, and he looked toward Kami to find some answers.
“Now Vegeta, you have the power to reverse anything, if someone wants to kill you all you have to do is to look at him and he will kill him self exactly the same way he wanted to kill you by, but I'm warning you, when you will fight a white wizard, then it will be neutralized, this is the only weakness”
The white wizard explained how to use the spell to both of them and went to his way.
“Jeeeeez, that was interesting” said Raditz happily.
End of flash back
Now they were near the Briefs mansion, they nodded at each other and Raditz went towards the mansion.
` Be careful, Raditz' and with that Tomma called out mentally to Oboro to see what was the new situation.
Well that's the end of chapter 3. I know that I promised that in this chapter bulma and vegeta will now about the war, but I had to plot something more important than that.
In next chapter, Bulma and Vegeta will know about the war. How they will react?
Please review and tell me what do you think. Thanks a lot
