Chapter 2: Waves across the universe!
Back in the ship Frieza descended back into the control room and relaxed back into his chair in his original form.
"I believe that was enough fun for the evening." He calmly stated with its malicious grin.
As the eruption of the planet still settled in the distance, Zarbon approached Frieza.
"My Lord, are you sure it was a good Idea to eliminate the Saiyans? While your display of magnificence was as glorious as ever, they could have still had their uses."
Some people in the room gulped and shivered at the obvious questioning of Lord Frieza's commands, though it was well known that Zarbon had served Frieza since before his reign began. Other than him, Ginyu, Berryblue and Dodoria, very few could question Frieza's commands and keep their head. Frieza simply flicked his tail and gave Zarbon a dismissive gaze.
"They were sure to rebel sooner or later, monkeys always bite the hands that feed them after all. And all those pathetic legends of a Super Saiyan, as if a monkey could surpass me." He replied with a slight bit of contempt in his eyes. "Other than Beerus and that folk tale of Majin Buu, there is nothing in the universe that could surpass me. That alone should be enough reason to wipe those primates out."
"Very wise my Lord." Dodoria bowed from his opposite side.
"Is the little Prince still off world?" Frieza questioned his subordinates.
"Yes my Lord, he and a small squad were on a mission in sector 14. We have already transmitted a message that rogue asteroids have caused a collision which wiped out the planet." Zarbon Replied.
"Good, he still has his uses." Frieza smirked to himself as he gleefully watched the final embers of the planet die out.
----------
On another planet in the 14th sector of the north quadrant of the universe, small fires were flickering as a rather primitive town burnt to ash. Some of the locals were still fleeing in terror before ultimately meeting their demise with bolts of energy pumped through them viciously. A small group of Saiyans were grouped together in the centre of the town, enjoying their 'just' victory, when they received some alarming news.
A large man, over two meters tall with a body filled of muscle, a small patch of hair on his balding head and a thin moustache was looking into his communicator with a grim face, that just kept on growing paler. "M-my Prince… we have received word that planet Vegeta was wiped out by a collision with asteroids!" he shakily reported.
"What!!?" Almost everyone present gasped at the news. One ran up to the large man with a disbelieving face.
"It can't be! I-It must be a false report, or a mistake, or something! Right!?" The youngster pleaded with him. His only noticeable trait being his long spiked down hair that reached behind him down to his knees.
The larger man grunted, not used to this level of disrespect.
"Shut it runt, this came from the top…" Although his words were harsh, he was clearly shaken by these events. He had served under the royal family since before anyone here was even born so he had deep sentimental ties to it and his race.
The only one present that seemed calm was one of the youngest, still sat where he was. He had some surprise and anger gleaming off his eyes, but for another reason entirely.
"Absolutely pathetic." He calmly retorted, to the shock of those around him. "They aren't worth the name of the Saiyan race if they are killed off that easily." His words shock many, although they are all bred and raised for war, this level of coldness was still unnerving.
The young one with long spiked hair couldn't take it anymore and ran up to him in a fury.
"How can you say that! It's all our families, our entire rac—" Before he could finish his statement a hand flashed past and swatted him through some nearby rubble.
"You will not speak to your Prince that way Raditz, am I clear?!" The large man questioned sternly, though it was clear he wasn't giving him an option.
The youngster, Raditz was struggling to upright himself after the hit. Bleeding through some scrapes and cuts, though he immediately realised the error of his ways and through gritted teeth bowed back to the prince.
"I deeply apologise for my disgraceful words" He spoke quickly. "I was too emotional and am ready to receive any punishment!"
The prince stood slowly, his hair was spiked upwards the same as the King and he just looked on callously. Though this was something Raditz was used to, he looked upon everyone in this manner. A look which spoke volumes on how high he placed himself. Though fortunately for Raditz he simply grunted and walked away. After he got a sizable distance from the others, his communicator starting bleeping. To his surprise this was a secret channel only used by the royals of Vegeta, he activated the message with a bit of apprehension.
"M-my s-son." Although it was hard to hear over the static, it was clearly his father's voice. "We ---re-- bei--- Friez—aven- ge- us---" The message spat before dying out.
Despite his aloofness towards the situation earlier, the prince now had a deep and scary scowl creasing his face. With clenched teeth and a bitter rage as he crushed the communicator with his bare hands he cursed out-
"Frieza!!"
----------
Away in another corner of the galaxy a ship floats silently in space. The ship highly resembled the one carrying Frieza above planet Vegeta. Inside was also similar, though with duller lighting and noticeably less people working away at the consoles.
"Sir Cooler, it seems your brother has finally gotten rid of the Saiyans." One of the lifeforms mentioned, he was a tall, brown reptilian humanoid. He had big yellow eyes, pointy ears, he wore similar upper body armour to the soldiers invading Vegeta only with just one shoulder pauldron poking out. He had a partial purple jumpsuit that covered his torso to his thighs and wore a communicator on his left ear connected to a head strap.
"Oh, well it's not surprising. The apes were worth less than they could chew. Did any escape?" Another presence in the room questioned, presumably being Lord Cooler.
"Prince Vegeta's squad were the only ones off world when it was destroyed sir. Oh, there was a pod sent out the day before though." The creature replied back after scanning through the database a bit more.
"Really? What lifeforms were aboard?" Cooler leaned forward, his appearance strikingly similar to that of Frieza in his transformed state, though his skin was deep- purple and much more masculine in appearance despite being a similar build. He was taller than the aforementioned with several armour-like carapaces on his chest, shoulders, shins and head.
"Previous scans show it was just an infant, though there's no flight path in the database. Should we engage?"
"No, I doubt anything will come from it. Regardless, even if it does it will just make things more interesting."
----------
At the opposite ends of the universe there sat a giant space fortress. It was spherical in design, had an outer ring connected to it and a spire protruding downwards.
As per usual it was a hectic time here, dozens of individuals all working away, some filing reports, some returning from the hanger, and some simply cleaning. This was the headquarters to a well-known force in the universe, the Galactic Patrol. They functioned as a sort of space police, locking away the worst the universe has to offer. In one of the main rooms in the official's sector there was a bit of commotion.
"Sir, we have reports that an asteroid collision has wiped out planet Vegeta! Though some of the moles in the sector have reported that Frieza actually wiped it out." A short, green bean- headed alien reported to his superior.
The superior officer glanced down; he had a gaunt face with sunken eyes. He wore the same standard issue uniform, a white chest piece with the Galactic Patrol's insignia, white gauntlets and greaves and a full body purple jumpsuit. The only difference with the other members being his long robe covering his lower body.
"Interesting, though I will have to report this to the Galactic King. For some reason the higher ups are really soft on the Saiyans, despite being out of our authority it's good to know that bloodthirsty monsters like the Saiyans have been eliminated. Continue observations on Frieza's forces and ensure they don't start to expand, and send me a report on the remaining Saiyans. I'll contact the Galactic King afterwards." The man had a clear disdain of the Saiyans, though it's to be expected from such a barbaric race. Usually this wouldn't be such a huge issue, though he knew some of his superiors would think differently.
----------
In a place far displaced from the mortal plane, two individuals were stood watching a floating Orb. Their surroundings should be familiar, ripe green grass, velvet water with a purple sky that exuded a pink glow. The odd tree scattered around with some small craggy hills.
"Although the Saiyans have fallen to this extent it is still saddening to see them taken out like this. I hope this doesn't change what my predecessor stated…" A shorter figure moped to himself, he had dim purple skin, a white mohawk and dressed in a posh kai outfit. He was watching the events from planet Vegeta unfold form the orb.
"Lord Supreme, some Saiyans have survived off world. And I hope you forgive my audacity, but I have always harboured doubts that beings as primitive as the Saiyans or Namekians could be a part of something as big as this." A much taller man replied from behind him, he had light red skin, white long slicked back hair and a broad face. He wore the same outfit as the other being present.
"Yes, well sometimes I hope he was mistaken as well. But on the off chance it's best to continue observations, have North Kai contact us again if anything regarding this matter props up." Lord Supreme's voice was slightly shaken, almost like he wasn't sure what to think at the moment.
"Yes, Lord Supreme."
----------
Even further out in the unknown reaches of the universe, a strange construct floated, surrounded by barren planets and moons. The construct seemed to be an upside-down polyhedron, with vast amount of deep blue and purple trees, wide open fields with teal grass interspersed with marbled paths and weaving lakes. Most notably a giant tree perched in the centre almost as large as the construct itself, barren of any leaves.
"Hmm?" A figure stood on the open field looking into a small sphere at the end of his long slender staff. "How interesting." The figure was a tall, thin humanoid with pale blue skin, white flicked up hair, violet eyes and rather effeminate features. Around his neck was a large light blue ring. His attire consisted of a maroon robe, a black cuirass with Egyptian like white and orange diamond decorations and a blue sash. He also wore black high heeled shoes with long toes resembling winklepickers with white spats.
The individual's curiosity seemed to catch the attention of a figure behind him doing intense exercises.
"Lord Whis, is something the matter? Things very rarely catch your eye like this." He questioned while strolling over, still panting from the exercise. This person was of medium build, with shorter spiked up black hair with a front fringe straying to the right. He wore leather like armour, his chest piece, greaves and armbands being blue, with the undershirt and shorts a dull black. He had silver tipped boots and a tail swinging freely.
"Ah yes, it seems that the Saiyans have been wiped out. Though a few off world have survived." Whis replied freely, almost as if it wasn't his concern.
"Oh…" The man sounded quite conflicted after hearing the news. Though notably didn't look that surprised, almost like hearing bad news you knew was coming.
"That's not all, it seems one of the surviving Saiyans is going to be landing on earth."
Though this statement surprised the other man more than the previous.
"Really!? Does this mean that my mentors' friend was right after all?" He burst out, losing the little amount of manners he had in the first place.
"It's not use speculating about things like this. Though if things continue like this it seems it won't be long before Lord Beerus awakens." He replies before glancing back up to his staff. "I wonder how things will play out."
----------
The mentioned pod continued hurting through space, passing planet after planet. Weeks later it arrives at its destination, a green, beige and blue planet at in the far edges of its galaxy, earth. The pod shot down through the atmosphere.
In a ripe green forest, an elderly man was gently walking down a slightly trodden path. He wore traditional Chinese garbs, a black undershirt with an orange buttoned shirt on top of that. He had kind eyes, a big frilly, grey moustache and a large woven tub perched on his back that was filled with fruit. He was humming along, presumably on his way back home when something caught his eye. And much to his shock, it was getting closer. The flying object passed closely by as he dropped to the ground in fright. A second later a large boom resounded through the surroundings.
"W-what on earth?" The old man questions himself with a shaky voice, looking over at some smoke rising close to him. Although he was frightened to death by this strange occurrence, his curiosity far outweighed his fear as he slowly crept over to the impact site.
As he got there it was already surrounded by the local wildlife that haven't already fled, all staring curiously at this strange object that crashed into their forest moments prior.
"Alright, come on." The man ushered his way through the animals, spooking a couple of them in the process.
To his perplexment, a large crater was formed where he stood, even stranger was the perfectly spherical object sat in the centre. With a loud gulp he started to descend towards the objects with care. Suddenly a loud hiss reverberated from the object, causing him to fall back slightly and put his guard up. As this sphere seemed to open up his guard was at an all time high, until he heard something. A soft wailing cry. Yet again letting his curiosity get the better of him he crept closer to the sound before observing the inside of the object, only to find, a child?
"What the!?" He murmured out, looking around him like it was some kind of joke. Though his glance turned back towards the small infant sat inside the object, it was now staring at him with its cute and curious eyes.
"A baby, but how…?" He questioned as he leant in to pick the little guy up.
As soon as he observed the child, he quickly reverted to his usual laid back personality, though a bit startled, he always like being around children. But he noticed one strange thing.
"Oh, haha. Looks like you've got a tail! Oh hoho!" He laughed in a jovial manner to try and calm the child. "Well… we can't just leave you here now, can we?"
He leant in slightly towards the infant who seemed to calm down much more than before. "Shall we take you to my home?" He asked kindly, to his surprise the child lightly kicked him in the face and burst out in laughter. Though the kick weirdly hurt for one so young, he was glad to see that it was comfortable now.
"Well, you certainly are a feisty one, aren't you? Oh hoho!" He set the child in his arms as he trudged back out of the crater, the child playfully kicking and laughing all the while. He glanced back at the crater. "How strange, a child from a meteor…" He wondered out loud before being drawn back to the child's laughter, after thinking for a moment he lifted him up with a proud smile.
"My name is Gohan, where did you come from little guy?" The child looked down inquisitively at the man. "But what to name you… Hmmm…" He stood thinking for a few moments. "Oh, I know. I'll call you Goku! You like that?" At the question the child seemed to beam a smile and start playing with his moustache.
"Oh hoho, it seems you do, well let me show you our home, it's not to far away from here." He continued as he started to walk back to the path he came from, somehow completely forgetting about the large crater behind him. He started walking back to his home with an extra person, who was of course laughing and kicking around constantly.
This moment of kindness will be an impetus of a grand tale. One of Kakarot, also known as Son Goku.

pulsesplice The prologue was mainly to foreshadow future events and was quite fast paced. Expect the story to slow down from here, I’m also still trying to figure out how long I want the chapters...
