20 scenes, 216 lines

1. The Mysterious Alien Warrior, before the battle

3 lines

Over 5 years had passed since Goku had crushed Piccolo's attempt at world domination with his own two hands. Never had the world enjoyed more peace...

Goku

Excited, Gohan? Today I'll be taking you to see Master Roshi!

Okay!

2. The Mysterious Alien Warrior, after the battle

7 lines
Raditz

Kakarot.

As your older brother, I advise you stand down. You cannot hope to win with a power level like that.

Goku

What did you say?!

Hey, lemme go! Dad, help!

I'll be holding on to your spawn.

Agree to my proposition and he'll live.

I trust you won't be foolish about this... Right, brother?

3. An Enemy in Common, before the battle

20 lines

With Gohan in tow, Raditz hurtled into the sky and out of sight, leaving behind a bewildered Goku and company. Goku, along with Krillin and Master Roshi, resolved to face Raditz as a team. Before they could depart, though...

Piccolo

Those two will only drag you down.

Take me. It's your only chance.

Piccolo?

What on Earth are you doing here?

Piccolo

I've been keeping tabs on your unwelcome guest.

Goku

You did? Then you've met him already?

Piccolo

Yes.

I know how horribly strong he is. He's unbeatable.

That is, unless you and I join forces. Only then do we stand a chance.

Goku

You might be right there.

But I have to ask... You're not the charitable type. What gives?

Piccolo

Don't get ahead of yourself. My interests are purely selfish.

World domination is a task reserved for me-- ONLY me.

Once that pest is history, you're next on my list. Then, the world will be mine for the taking.

Goku

I think not. Still, teaming up doesn't seem like such a bad idea.

That monster's not going down any other way.

Piccolo

You're not as dumb as you look. It's a truce then.

...For now. And just for the record, the idea still sickens me.

Goku

Whatever. Time to rumble!

4. An Enemy in Common, after the battle

12 lines
Raditz

You must be suicidal

to come before me with such a pathetic power level.

Goku

He's fast... Too fast!

He's like a moving blur!

Raditz

Your death is now just a matter of time.

...Time I intend to drag out for your increased suffering and my heightened enjoyment!

Piccolo

Not good. We underestimated this freak of nature...

Raditz

Say, before I stamp your puny lives out I'll let you in on something.

In addition to Kakarot and yours truly, there are two other Saiyans who survived the planet's demise.

Goku

You've gotta be...

Raditz

What's more-- if you thought I'm strong... Whew.

These guys are much, much... MUCH stronger.

5. Goodbye, Goku!, before the battle

10 lines
Piccolo

Unreal. You mean to tell me

the other two Saiyans are even stronger than you...?!

Raditz

That I do. Mwa ha ha ha!

If only you had learned to fear Saiyan strength much earlier in the game.

Goku

Enough talk. I'm only interested in one thing...

My son! Where did you hide him?

If you must know, the crater.

That hole?

Goku

Sit tight, Gohan.

Dad's a-coming. Everything's gonna be okay!

6. Goodbye, Goku!, after the battle

11 lines
Raditz

Ughhh... That runt.

To think... that sucker punch of his is actually taking a toll.

The sight of his father in peril set Gohan's rage and hidden power alight! With this newfound power, he launched himself at Raditz, sending the Saiyan reeling. The tide of battle had begun to change.

Piccolo

How convenient. I couldn't have dreamed of a sweeter scenario, saying bye to both of you.

Though I'm sure, Goku, your friends will waste no time in wishing you back with the Dragon Balls.

Special Beam Cannon!

Goku's sacrifice combined with Piccolo's ultimate attack proved just enough to take down the enemy. And after tasking his friends with his resurrection using the Dragon Balls, Goku, too, departed this realm.

Meanwhile, in the farthest reaches of space... Having learned of the Dragon Balls and Raditz's death, the remaining two Saiyan menaces plotted a course for Earth to realize their own dark ambitions...

Think! An eternal life of combat and pillaging! Doesn't it sound grand?

Our onslaught will never, ever end!

The ultimate Saiyan crisis was set to befall the planet in a year's time! And so, Earth's greatest warriors began a grueling training regimen in hopes of repelling the enemy and preserving their home.

7. Deeds Done by the Full Moon, before the battle

8 lines
Piccolo

The runt. "Gohan," was it? The right training

would mold him into a powerful warrior. ...My training.

Two more Saiyans were due to arrive in a year. In order to stand a chance against them, Gohan's strength was necessary. And so, Piccolo took Gohan off to his domain for some serious training.

Piccolo

We need your power! You need to train...

And acquire the skills needed to send the Saiyan scum packing.

M-M-Me...? But I can't fight! I don't know how!

Piccolo

Within you sleeps a strength like no other.

You will learn to wield it... as a warrior!

8. Deeds Done by the Full Moon, after the battle

19 lines

The kid's gone totally berserk...!

He'll be the end of us all before the Saiyans even get here!

Having laid eyes on the full moon, a transformed Gohan laid waste to all in sight. A clever Piccolo succeeded in destroying the moon, thus reverting Gohan to his original form.

Piccolo

I didn't count on the boy going ape. It's that Saiyan blood.

I now know why the runt and his father are in a league of their own.

Kami

Hm...

Mr. Popo

Kami? Is something the matter?

Kami

It's Piccolo. Something in him has changed, I feel.

Mr. Popo

What a coincidence. I was thinking exactly the same.

The Piccolo of old would never think to train up Goku's son like this.

Kami

Perhaps he has realized

that my life-- our life-- will last but a year more.

Being that you and he are one being,

should he die-- so would you. Oh, tragedy...

Kami

I'd wager Piccolo is also aware of this truth. Perhaps he wants to leave a legacy of sorts.

Even if that legacy is the son of his enemy...

But that means that the Dragon Balls would be good for only...

Kami

Indeed, my sharp friend. One last use.

How fitting their final task would be the resurrection of Goku.

9. The Fight in the Next World, before the battle

7 lines

Earth had just one year left before the advent of a new Saiyan threat... Having perished in the fight against Raditz, Goku found himself a resident of the Other World. Led by Kami, he went to King Yemma for permission to train...

...And that's why I've brought Goku here, body and all.

Please-- allow the boy passage to King Kai's, so that he might train.

Very well. If you want him to train, train he will. Go.

One thing though. Fall from Snake Way and you're on your own.

And so, Goku cleared to receive training from the most revered of cosmic entities began his journey down the winding, perilous expanse known as... "Snake Way."

Alrighty then. Time for a jog!

10. The Fight in the Next World, after the battle

5 lines

Oh joy! Now here's a visitor with potential!

Maybe, just maybe... he can succeed

where I failed and perfect the techniques I could not. First, the Kaioken.

And then, THAT special move...

The clock continued its merciless countdown... Likewise, Goku and friends continued their training, preparing for the nemesis to come. And... after one short year, the day that would decide Earth's fate arrived at long last.

11. Attack of the Saiyans, before the battle

19 lines

Your halo! It disappeared! You're alive again.

Better hurry back!

With King Kai's training complete, Goku hurried back home. Unfortunately... tragedy did not wait for his arrival. The two dreaded Saiyans had landed on Earth!

It seems they prepared the welcome wagon.

Krillin

So these are the two we've been waiting for.

Man, it's like staring death straight in the face.

Stay calm, Gohan. There's nothing to fear.

Over the past year we've become far stronger than we ever were.

Gohan (Kid)

Y-Yes!

Hm? You must be... a Namekian, no?

Then I can safely assume you are the one who created the Dragon Balls?

Piccolo

...Sorry. Wrong guy. We look alike though.

I'm more of a fighter than a maker.

Vegeta (Evil)

Guess you won't be giving us any info about the Balls, then. Not willingly, anyway.

Very well. We can just as easily beat it out of you.

Nappa. The Saibaimen, please.

Yes sir. You know what they say about all work and no play!

Saibaiman

Hraagh!

Krillin

I dunno whether to punch them or puke.

12. Attack of the Saiyans, after the battle

5 lines
Yamcha

Ha! Looks like your pets weren't as strong as you thought they were.

Vegeta (Evil)

Oh yeah? Care to wager your life on that?

Yamcha

What the--

Piccolo

Son of a... He blew up...!

Krillin

N-No... Yamcha!

13. Ferocity of the Saiyans, before the battle

7 lines
Krillin

Y-Yamcha! No...!!!

Nappa

That Saibaiman musta been defective. A draw ain't a win.

Krillin

Yamcha must've sensed something like this would happen. That's why he volunteered...

Aw, man... What am I gonna say to Puar and Bulma?

Vegeta (Evil)

Excuse me? Clean up in aisle 4, please. It's a rather... messy spill.

Krillin

Why you little...! You'll regret that!

I haven't been twiddling my thumbs this past year, ya know!

14. Ferocity of the Saiyans, after the battle

21 lines
Nappa

Heh heh. You just about done wasting your energy?

I think you mighta missed the announcement, but-- we're strong. Oh so very strong.

Krillin

N-No... That's not possible...!

Piccolo

He's a freak. A monster!

Having seen Saiyan strength far greater than they had imagined, Earth's warriors were coming to grips with their perilous predicament. Before long...

Chiaotzu

Bye, Tien. Take care.

Stay alive for me, will you?

Tien

No can do, Chiaotzu... I'll avenge you-- then join you.

I won't leave you on your own!

Chiaotzu and Tien staked their lives on one final attack each. But the hardy Nappa refused to buckle. The next victim the Saiyan behemoth eyed was none other than Gohan.

Nappa

DIE!

Gohan... Get outta here...

P-Piccolo! Why d-did you s-save me...?

Piccolo

I thought I told you to go... Hurry, now...

Gohan (Kid)

No, hold on! My dad'll be here soon. He'll get these guys for us!

Piccolo

How pathetic, huh... The so-called Demon King Piccolo

sticks up for a kid and loses his life in the process... What a way to go, eh?

Do me a favor and... don't die, Go... han...

Gohan (Kid)

Piccolo!

N-No...

NO...!!!

15. The Quiet Wrath of Goku, before the battle

18 lines
Gohan (Kid)

Take this!

Masenko!

Wow.

Big blast for a tiny guy. Color me impressed!

Krillin

D-Darn it all.

He's too strong We're no match!

Gohan (Kid)

Sorry, Piccolo. I couldn't do it.

I couldn't avenge you. That was all I had. I haven't even got the power to escape.

Bwa hah hah! How I'll savor the look on Kakarot's face when he sees his son is 2D!

Vegeta (Evil)

Finally, you show yourself.

Krillin

Oh, man! Goku! Aren't you a sight for sore eyes!

D- Dad!

Goku

Piccolo. Tien. Yamcha.

Nappa

Oh yeah. Your dumb friends kicked the bucket.

And... the little one exploded, so don't forget to count him.

Goku

Chiaotzu too... And Kami.

I can take these goons on by myself.

You two stand back. It's going to get... rowdy.

16. The Quiet Wrath of Goku, after the battle

5 lines
Vegeta (Evil)

Keh keh keh... Is that all you've got? You disappoint me...

Goku

Wha... What's wrong with him?!

Hehe... I'll tell you what, though. The tougher my opponent, the more psyched I get!

I came to check in because they were nearby, but this is too much...

How can Goku and that guy be that strong? It's like a bad dream...

17. The Decisive Battle at Last!, before the battle

4 lines
Vegeta (Evil)

Ready to witness the raw power of a Saiyan elite?

Consider it a parting gift before your funeral.

Goku

Even if my body breaks. Even if I die... I gotta go the limit.

Time to ramp up the Kaioken to triple strength!

18. The Decisive Battle at Last!, after the battle

25 lines

The Spirit Bomb, infused with all Earth's hopes... Gohan's transformation into a Giant Ape... Plus the diehard efforts of Earth's finest all took a combined toll on the mighty Vegeta. At last, he was forced to concede.

Vegeta (Evil)

I-Impossible.

To think the day would come when I of all people would choose retreat...!

Krillin

We've fought tooth and nail. I need to put an end to him!

This is for my friends! Die!

Wait!

Krillin

G-Goku? That you just now, talking in my head? It must be!

Goku

Krillin... Now, this is gonna sound crazy, but please...

let him go. This is the only time I'll make such a selfish request.

Krillin

You're right. It DOES sound crazy!

If we let him go he'll be back one day healed up and angry!

Goku

I know. He's strong. Super strong, even.

But hear me out. When I considered the alternative with him dead and gone--

I felt it would be such... a waste.

Krillin

A waste? A WASTE?!

Goku

Next time we tangle I'll be strong enough to floor him for good.

I know it's a selfish request, but please. Allow me just this once, Krillin.

...Alright. More than anyone else you've earned the right to a favor or two.

After all, it's thanks to you that the planet is here at all.

Krillin

But, listen up Goku! Next time, give this creep

a thrashing so bad they'll feel it out in space-- and then some.

You got it...!

Vegeta (Evil)

You... Remember this well, you pieces of trash!

There won't be any miracles the next time we meet... Ahahahaha!

Thanks to the dire efforts of Goku and friends the Saiyan threat had been repelled, though not without a price. But little did our heroes know, that this was not the end, but the beginning... The beginning of a new struggle...

19. The Strongest Warrior Awakens!, before the battle

7 lines

The Saiyans... space's strongest warrior race. These born fighters, who had lost their home planet, Vegeta, took up an odd trade, razing habitable worlds of inhabitants then putting them up for sale on the planet market.

Vegeta (Evil)

A Saiyan's aptitude for combat is tested at birth.

Those with mediocre figures are sent to planets with mediocre enemies, as happened in your case.

Goku

So thanks to that I made it to Earth then. Guess I should be thankful.

One more thing... Even average Joes like me can surpass so-called elites. You use a thing called "hard work."

Vegeta (Evil)

What a wit you are. Now allow me to present

something with the power to make your little hard work trick utterly futile.

20. The Strongest Warrior Awakens!, after the battle

3 lines
Vegeta (Evil)

Damn you... Kakarot!

Goku

I told you, that's not my name! It's Goku!

Goku and Vegeta, two Saiyan warriors who survived their planet's demise... They would eventually come to learn their home world's true history, culminating in a faceoff with their race's archrival, the galactically reviled Frieza!
