Previously on Dragonball AS:

    Gohan,Krillin and Bulma learn they need to get to Elder Guru before Frieza does or the Namekian dragonballs are gone for good! Can they make it before Frieza? Find out now!

-Hours Pass-

   “Hey how much further?!” Krillin shouted.

    “Ummm… perhaps another 5 hours?” said Neris, sounding unsure as they continued to pass island after island.

    “WHAT?! 5 HOURS?! Shiiiiiii-”

    “We could go faster? I don’t sense anyone near us…” Neris said looking behind her to face Krillin.

    “No, I don’t wanna chance it. Vegeta and that Freezer guy are still out there. And that other strong guy with the green hair and accent. And they’re way too strong for us to take on! I was just asking cuz I thought, you know we were halfway there or something.”

    “We ARE halfway!!” Neris says happily.

    “You’re kidding me right?” Krillin said looking shocked as his eyes seemed to bulge out of his head.

-Meanwhile-

    Vegeta,a few miles up ahead continued to circle around the planet looking for any more Namekian Villagers when he spotted the two belonging to Neris and Krillin nearby making him stop abruptly.

    “Two ki sources and moving towards me. And both of them feels different from those Namekians and Frieza's crew. I better find out who else is here on this godforsaken planet.” Vegeta said, muttering to himself before flying towards the source of the two of the two power levels at full-speed.

    Krillin noticed the fast moving chi heading toward them and panicked. “N-Neris!! WE NEED TO HIDE COME ON!!”

    “Huh? Um, okay!” Neris said quickly following Krillin down to a small cave in a nearby mountain and hid her chi when she felt Krillin doing the same thing and flattened herself against the wall of the cave.

    As they moved to hid, at the last moment, just as Vegeta was nearing towards them he seemed to make a U turn changing his direction when he felt yet another power coming nearby.

    “Why’d he change direction?” Neris asked seeing Vegeta moving elsewhere when she peeked her head out of the mouth of the cave.

    “Another ki, he must be going after that one!” Krillin said as Vegeta and Zarbon flew right towards each other.

    Krillin and Neris felt a battle between them starting to take place after a few moments followed by a massive explosion that seemed to shook the very planet itself.

    “J-Jesus…!!! That’s some massive chi coming from Vegeta and that monster!!!” Krillin replied watching the battle, as they stepped out of their cave to watch, “Vegeta must be fighting one of those guys from Friezas gang, they’re way out of our leagues!”

    “Hey Krillin, while they’re distracted maybe we can go to Guru’s now! Before they spot us!” Neris offered although reluctantly as she hated how much they were destroying the landscape she knew so well. “Krillin come on!” Neris said motioning him forward.

    “Y-Yeah! Let’s go full speed!” Krillin said releasing as much ki as he could and flying with Neris in tow doing the same.

    Behind them, the battle got even more intense as Vegeta seemed to be winning the battle when he delivers a strong kick sending Zarbon crashing into the ground.

    “Whatsa matter, Zarbon!? I’m not even breaking a sweat!” Vegeta gloated triumphantly landing behind Zarbon and, adding insult to injury kicked Zarbon flying a few feet and landing face first into the blue grassy dirt.

    “Oh Vegeta.. You’ve done it now, you’ve awoken the hidden power that has laid dormant in me for years.”Zarbon said smiling, while wiping the blood off his chin.

    “What?! What power lying dormant for years? HAHAHAHA!!! You make me laugh with your jokes!”

    “Hmph, keep laughing while you still draw breath Vegeta,” Zarbon said pushing the bangs off his forehead and standing to face Vegeta, “to give you full scope of my powers,  you see, I need to transform but this form… is so ugly..and it removes my beautiful looks I have now so you see, that’s why I’ve kept this form dormant for so long. But now, given the choice between life and death I guess I have no choice.”

    “You transform?! Like what, how us Saiyans turn into Oozaru forms under the light of the full moon? HAHAHA! Honestly, you people really do say the most funniest things when you’re about to die!!”

    “Oh trust me, I don’t become at all as absurdly large like you monkeys do, my strength increases exponentially!!”

    “Oh sure Zarbon… I am looking forward to this little charade of yours so I’ll play along for now.” Vegeta smirked crossing his arms across his chest smirking.

    “Oh Vegeta, if only you had a working brain, you’d be terrified. But I forget you saiyans seem to have a death wish.”

    Just then, Zarbon's physique grew more buffer and muscular. His face and mouth became elongated and his power level had tripled in power. Vegeta had no time to react when Zarbon had already began to run at him, clapping both hands around his head and headbutting him causing Vegetas forehead to gush with blood.

    “AAAUGH!!!” Vegeta screamed as Zarbon repeatedly began to headbutt him again and again and then flinging him about 50 feet into the air. Vegeta took only a moment to regain his senses before flying right back toward Zarbon angrily. Zarbon smirked flying up to where Vegeta was as both of them traded punches hitting each other at the exact same time. Vegeta felt his jaw crack though not quite broken both of them were sent flying from each other by the force of each others punch. Vegeta was breathing very heavy as blood poured from his mouth and Zarbon smirked in front of him barely injured.

    ‘What the hell is this?!? How can the difference be so big…!!!’ Vegeta thought in utter astonishment.

    “Hahaha I told you didn’t I Vegeta?! You have only yourself to blame for your suffering..! You’ve made a terrible mistake, I will give you credit your skills have definitely improved but your arrogance seems to not have improved at all!!” Zarbon grinned flexing his muscles, “Allow me to tell you something else before I kill you but Lord Frieza can transform as well!!”

    “WHAT?!” Vegeta said his eyes widening and mouth dropping open.

    “Now do you see!? Do you still fantasize that someone like you, who can’t even beat me would EVER stand a chance against the almighty Lord Frieza?!?!” Zarbon laughed firing a massive ki blast at Vegeta who just managed to dodge by flying away from it only to be grabbed by Zarbon from behind. Zarbon wrapped his arms tightly around Vegeta’s waist trapping his arms and then making a beeline for the water head first and dropping Vegeta at the last second as Vegeta crashed into the earth making a 100 foot wide crater and a 150 foot deep hole. The water slowly began to fill up the hole, submerging Vegeta down below. “Huh, he’s not showing himself or coming back up to the surface… Did I kill him already? Vegeta’s too tough and resilient to die this easy.. Heh, even if he di survive that I doubt he’d want yet another piece of me. Suppose I can just leave him to drown himself and report to Frieza. Zarbon flew away from the battle.

    About 5 minutes after Vegeta’s hand popped out of the water, followed by his head as he swam to shower, taking deep breaths of the Namekian air. “I...will not….let it all end...like this…!! I will..get stronger..! You’ll see!!” Vegeta breaths while trying to crawl further away from the water before losing consciousness.

    -Elsewhere-

    Back at the Namekian Village Vegeta had destroyed.

    “This is terrible!!! This must be Vegeta’s doing! I have to tell Lord Frieza! Appule talks to himself and flies off towards Friezas spaceship.

    Frieza quietly stared outside the window of his ship waiting for his men to return quietly. A knock came to the door.

    “Lord Frieza it is I, Zarbon.”

    “Come in Mr. Zarbon. Report,” Frieza said as he turned around while lowering himself to the ground gently. “Have you found another village yet?”

    “No, my Lord, not quite yet however, I did want to give you the good news that I have defeated Vegeta master.”

    “Very good Zarbon! Frieza smiled maliciously, “Then I take it perhaps, you transformed for the first time in a while? Is Vegeta dead?”

    “Well sir, I did not confirm his corpse, but even if he did survive the fall he would be seriously injured I made sure of that.”

    “Why didn’t you confirm it?”

    “Huh? W-Well sir...he sank underwater….”

    “Oh I’m sorry Zarbon I didn’t realize how much you hate getting yourself wet. Did you just fail to do your duty because your afraid of a little water?!?!” Frieza spoke as he narrowed his eyes in anger.

    “Ah! F-Forgive me my Lord I shall confirm his death right away!!”

    Just as Zarbon began to head to the door Appule seemed to have apparated there by the door way. “MASTER FRIEZA!! I FOUND A VILLAGE BUT IT’S ALREADY COMPLETELY DESTROYED!!”

    “What?! You mean it wasn't from one of us?!”

    “M-Maybe Vegeta did it…?” Zarbon offered. “When I fought him, he didn’t have a dragonball with him though. He must have hidden it somewhere. Augh! Blast him!!”

    “Grrrr….! ZARBON! Bring Vegeta over here at once!! And this time, you better pray for your pathetic life he’s still alive or I’ll drown YOU in the water!!! And as for you Appule, contact the Ginyu Force and tell them to come here to Planet Namek! And bring extra scouters for us, of course! They should get here in 5 days give or take…”

    “!!! S-Surely not the Ginyu Force my Lord!!” Zarbon said turning to him.

    “Of course!” Appule said as he headed to the communications room to send the message.

    “You will think its impertinent for me to say this but, I have a very odd premonition…”

    “P-Premonition..?” Zarbon asked.

    “I’ve been thinking it over for a while now..that ever since I saw that female Saiyan protect that Namekian child, there’s definitely another Saiyan out there somewhere that’s developing at an alarming rate… I had first thought it might have been Vegeta, or perhaps Kaale and Yama who trained with me for a short while, but now I am not so sure…”

    “But...But sir, how could this be? Besides Vegeta, the only saiyans alive is Kaale and Yama, that one saiyan we briefly saw 5 hours ago, that one on earth and his son. And their battle strengths were so much weaker than Vegetas! And I doubt Kaale and Yama would betray you, my Lord.”

    “Are you questioning me Zarbon!? Instead of arguing, I think you would do better to bring Vegeta to me alive.”

    “Aye, aye sir!” Zarbon said before running out of the ship and flying back to where he left Vegeta.

    ‘I can never be too careful..those Saiyans have almost virtually bottomless combat abilities, thanks to their irksome Zenkai boosts...I must have those dragonballs now, then not even Beerus would stand a chance against me! Of course, it is absurd that any of those monkeys could ever hope to challenge me as I am now, but I must worry about my future and nip it in the but while I still can. And if any one of them were to turn Super Saiyan…..”

    -Meanwhile-

    “Are we there yet Neris?! We’ve been flying for 4 hours! Even at full speed!”

    “We just need to go a little left… There!! On the top of the highest rock formation! There’s grandpa Gurus place!!” Neris said turning her head to face Krilin and pointing directly ahead of her.

    “Huh?” Krillin looks towards the direction Neris was pointing. “Phew.. what a haul...Im glad we made it in time. I mean man, if this place is THIS obvious the bad guys would’ve found it no problem!!!”

    “Grandpa Guru is inside, and so is Papa! Let’s go Krillin!”

    The two land by the house and run to the door, just as it opens and Nail steps out.

    “Papa!!” Neris smiled running into his arms and hugging him tightly.

    “Neris…! Oh thank Guru you’re safe! Who is this?”

    “A friend of mine Papa, his names Krillin! He and this other one named Gohan helped me save Dende and Cargo! And guess what! Gohan has a tail just like mine!!”

    “What? ‘Save Dende and Cargo?’ Oh, Neris, you weren’t in any danger again were you?!” Nail said sounding worried as he grabbed her shoulders looking for any wounds and spotting the bloody hole in the white fabric of her shirt where she got shot by Frieza’s death beam.

    “I’m fine Papa… Dende and Cargo healed me! B-But we don’t have time for that.. We need to see Grandpa!”

    “Right..come inside, all of you then. Guru already knows you were coming to see him.”

    “Wait why didn’t this Guru guy try to get away then if he already knew?”  Krillin asked as they followed Nail inside the house.

    “Elder Guru is at an advanced age and he is slowly dying. All he can do is to rest here, and I as the sole protector of Namek, need to protect him.”

    “What about me Papa? I help too!” Neris pouted.

    Nail smiled and placed his hand on her fluffy black hair rubbing her head. Neris grinned happily. She loved when he patted her head like that.

    “Oh..” Krillin said astonished. ‘He does feel a helluva lot stronger than those other Namekians, like 4x as stronger..! This guy’s good..’

    The 3 of the reached the center of a empty room when Neris and Nail began to levitate upward. “We go up now.”

    “R-Right….” Krillin said following suit.

    “Grand Elder, we’ve brought a guest.”

    “Hiiiii grandpa!” Neris smiled hugging his ankle.

    “Whoah!! He’s...GIGANTIC!!!!” Krillin said his eyes bulging as he looked up at the huge fat Namekian sitting in the chair, and sitting in a pedestal just about Guru’s head was the one star ball.

    “Welcome. You must be the one from Earth I assume. I must express my deepest of gratitudes to you for helping young Neris, save my children Dende and Cargo. Thank you”

    “Uh..N-No sir. Shoot, it was nothing..!”
