Fullmetal Alchemist Fan Fiction / Dragon Ball/Z/GT Fan Fiction ❯ Saiyan Foster Father ❯ Radditzu says no ( Chapter 9 )

Chapter 7

 Military training kicked in. She attacked first, generating a hail of razor sharp quills that sizzled towards him. With one wrist he batted them away, and gave a slight smirk. "That's unusual. How did you generate those feeble darts?"

She did not answer. Instead she let the shards of plastic do the talking that she hurled next. Zipping out of view, the figure was nowhere to be seen. Unfortunately for him she could just discern him moving at hyper speed in the same manner Son Goku did. As a large hand dropped down to grab her, she whirled and slammed her staff into it. It smashed like a matchstick against his raised gauntlet. His other hand flashed out, but she quickly blocked it with a kick, and then threw something into his face that made him shout in anger.

Radditzu cursed as something sticky and hot shot over his mouth and nose, sealing it off. He tore at the plastic cutting off his air, gagging and unable to breath. Momentarily he raised his hand, generating a small grade blast that sizzled towards the female. She whirled, bringing both fists before her face to block it. By the time she generated another plastic shard to throw, Radditzu had heated the plastic up with one hand enough to melt it away.

"Are you perchance that alchemist they speak of? Unfortunate that they told me I had to kill you…" he said with a small smile. Easily he breathed. How long could this guy hold his breath, she wondered. A small smile came over his face, while he took deliberate steps towards her. Unfazed by anything she threw, he simply batted the plastic missiles away with a flick of his wrist. "Impressive, female. You actually almost suffocated me. IF I was a weak being like you might have killed me. But unfortunately for you, I'm not a weakling…"

"You're a Saiyan warrior, aren't you?" she blurted out.

"You've heard of us in this world?" he laughed.

"What do you want?" she demanded.

"You're a warrior of some sort… and a female I see… too bad that your techniques are nowhere near powerful enough to face me…" he chuckled. "Though I do like the sport of it…"

"Wait… don't… you can't kill me… I know where Kakkarot is!" she shouted.

"What?" he blinked at her, stopping short. "What the hell did you say?"

"I know where you can find Kakkarot! I overheard that you're looking for him. If I take you to him… will you promise NOT to attack me?"

"I don't make deals with natives, I order," he growled, reaching out his hand to grab her. She blocked his next move, leaping back to hold up her hands crackling with purple chikara.

"I'm serious…. I know where Kakkarot is. He's alive… and those beings you're with… they're just using you…"

"Enough of these childish games, female. You had better NOT be lying… or I'll be very angry…" Radditzu said, dodging around the small ki ball she hurled at him.

"That was just a warning. If you try and attack or hurt me the next one won't be…"

"That merely tickled, female…" he laughed deeply, blocking it and hurling it back towards her. Raising one palm to face up, he stared ahead with an evil grin. Gold power crackled into a slightly larger ki ball, which he hurled towards her.

"If you want to play catch, here's some REAL power…" he said with a chortle. She crossed her wrists again, bringing them up to intercept the blazing ball he generated. His eyes widened slightly to see her successfully reappear from the dust generated by his small blast.

"That only burned. Look, do you want me to tell you or not? Or are we going to throw ki at each other all day?" she asked.

"What manner of female are you?" he wondered, raising into the air. Soaring towards her, he reached out his hand to scoop her up. She hurled another blast towards him, which he easily dodged before zipping out. From several directions he appeared, throwing more blasts to disorient her. At the last moment when she turned to block his punch, something shot out from his waist and snared her legs. She hit the ground, spitting out dirt.

"Blah… ugh…" she coughed.

"Too bad you little ningens don't have tails," he cackled, reaching down and sweeping her up with ease. She yelped when he tossed her over his shoulder and rose into the air quickly.

"Hey… wait a minute!!" she yelled.

"Struggle all you want, female. But I don't think you'd like it if I dropped you… would I?" he taunted, keeping a firm hand on her backside. She yelped, glancing sickly down at the movement of the forest below her. Radditz flared his ki envelope around both of them, rocketing off towards the direction where they had first materialized.

"No… but it won't be long before you get a rude welcoming reception from some more powerful beings than I," she shouted.

"I highly doubt it…"

"Try me," she said.

"I intend to," he said, voice dropping deeply. His hand tightened, giving her butt a squeeze that made her squeal.

"Terrific, I'm being carried by a homicidal, horny monkey," she mumbled.

"What was that, female?" he asked. "I didn't quite make that out!"

"Where are we going?"

"Someplace you can tell me about Kakkarot. If you're lying, you'll be very sorry. But if you behave, I won't hurt you… much…"

"Let's just say that it's better if I take you to him, because if he sees you carrying me around like a sack of potatoes, he'll be pretty upset…"

"So he's alive is he? I suppose that he's had some major issue…"

"He hit his head on a rock and forgot who he was, all right? So you can forget him joining you…"

"Dammit," he grumbled. "Are you trying to piss me off?"

"No, I'm just preparing you for a nasty shock. They know all about Saiyans on this planet, because in fact…"

"Shit," he mumbled, touching his scouter with one hand. "We've got company…"

"Told you so…"

"Shut up female…."

"Destroyers," she mumbled. "Look, if you hand me over to them…"  

Radditzu zipped to a stop, hovering in midair near the crater where they'd first met. Three figures blurred into existence from gaping rips crackling in reality itself. Flashes of fire and lightening belched around them before spiraling shut behind each Destroyer. Unlike Radditzu, they flew by the focus of glowing red hover packs on their backs. Her stomach crawled because she saw the leering face of Third glancing at her from behind Radditzu's back.

"So, you've found one of our enemies. Very good…"

"I thought I said we Saiyans work alone!" Radditzu said firmly.

"You've done well. We'll take over from here…"

"I'm not done with her," said Radditzu.

"You were told to find her. Hand her over…"

"You're in no position to order me, Third. This female has something I want, before I consider handing her over to you…" said Radditzu.

"It isn't wise to argue with Leader, Saiyan…"

"What are you going to do, burn my body hair with those feeble hair dryers of yours. Don't make me laugh!" Radditzu taunted them as they raised their blasters.

"Don't hand me over to them…" she shivered, clinging tightly to him. Radditzu threw her up into the air, and the Destroyers tensed, whizzing about. Just as one of them moved close, Radditzu zipped in, and caught her under the arms and back.

"Stop messing around! Give her over now!"

"No," said Radditzu. "I changed my mind. I want her for myself…"

"You stupid simian! You're as thickheaded and foolish as these weakling hairless apes! Give her over now! Or you'll be stuck here on this planet forever!" Third snarled.

"Oh, I'm so hurt by your words," Radditzu snickered, clutching his prize close to him. "I'm going to need a moment alone to recover my pride…"

"I'm warning you, you dirty monkey. Hand her over, or else…"

"You can't trust primates at all, Third. I told you not to…" hissed one of the other destroyers she recognized as Fifth. "These Saiyans are just overgrown relatives… they're useless and uncontrollable…"

"I don't think they like you, Radditzu," she said.

"Feelings mutual. I hate lizards, especially ones with attitudes…" he mumbled. "I've got a sudden urge to see if they taste any better then they sound…"

"YUCK! If you get me out of this, I'll find you some food that won't make you puke…" she whispered. "I know you Saiyans eat a large deal of protein… if I feed you, and tell you what you wish to know…"

A pencil thin beam zinged off his gauntlet that he raised before his face. Another seven or eight blasts crashed into his chest and legs. Irritated he zipped in and out, then raised his hand to generate another sizable ki blast. "I said NO!" Radditzu barked. "She's MINE!"

"Fool!" Third hissed, baring his teeth. "You'll DIE for this!"

"Oh crap," mumbled Atomique, flinching.

"Kill him!" yelled Third. Reaching for their backs, they threw small rod shaped objects that whizzed end over end towards him. Snorting, he deflected each with contemptuous ease, detonating the plasma grenades with kicks and punches wreathed in deadly orange blossoms of fire. No sooner had he dealt with these then shoulder mounted cannons were produced out of quick reality rips. Swinging them to bear, all three opened up full blast with wrist diameter particle beams.

Radditzu zipped upwards, avoiding the beams that crisscrossed and singed past their attackers. Reality ripped, and each one of them vanished to reappear at random locations around the Saiyan. "You're delusional…" Radditzu snorted, shaking his head. "Allow me to introduce you to a more powerful attack… which is far more devastating than you could even fathom…"

Zipping up to a higher altitude, he raised his hand, and shouted something in a harsh tongue that she didn't recognize. Twin balls of ki arched up and around, splitting off like twin comets towards their attackers. Third maneuvered out of the way, but the other two zipped off with the blazes of ki trailing them only inches from impact. Although their levitation belts nimbly ducked and wove, the blasts finally overtook each independent target. At opposite ends of a blazing Y from his beams, they erupted into bright yellow puffs of smoke and fire, vaporized instantly.

"You… you… killed them… just like…" Third gasped, raising his hands. He stretched them high above his head, screaming loudly.

"Don't insult me… you were the idiot who provoked me!" Radditzu answered calmly. "What are you doing now?"

"Mental incendiary!" Third screamed, channeling chikara from the crystal around his neck to his extremities. Orange lightening crackled, centering on his head. The two flickers of pulsing orange chikara spread from either hand then joined the aura around his helmeted noggin to join into a devastating ball. It shot forwards towards them both.

However Radditzu transferred her to one hand, and merely raised his other gauntlet wrist to send another beam of greater intensity towards third's gathered chikara. The backlash lit up the entire world for a second around both beings. Atomique grabbed unconsciously to her captor's shoulder, burying her face against his neck.

When the radiance faded, she saw Third reaching for his device. He sizzled out seconds later, leaving them both alone. Radditzu felt the female trembling in his massive grasp, with mild interest. Hot breath fanned his neck, and he brought his other hand to hold her more securely in his grip. Just before he could open his mouth and say something, multiple traces showed up on his scouter. Simultaneously the sky before and around him opened up with a dozen or so black holes swirling with blue lightening. Out of each belched forth a destroyer, armed to the teeth with shoulder-mounted cannons, and full armor.

"Going to try again are we?" Radditzu scoffed.

"Attack!" they cried.
