Vegeta stared at Exodys, the narrowed, angry glare never leaving his face. He watched his opponent, as the other disappeared and Vegeta barely had time to react. He turned his head, sensing Exodys behind him and he spun around, prepared to throw a ki out, but he wasn't fast enough. The kick sent Vegeta backward, hurling towards the trees. Just before he hit a trunk, Vegeta threw his arms out, angrily snarling in response.<br/><br/>It was then Vegeta blinked, his eyes going a little wide when he saw the blood running down Exodys' lip and face. "You blasted, lying fool.." Vegeta spun to the crowd, "SEE THAT?!"<br/><br/>Piccoll, Bardock, and everyone else blinked, wondering what was shocking Vegeta so much. Bardock held his arms crossed over his chest, looking back and forth between Vegeta and Exodys before he finally realized what it was, "Well..."<br/><br/>Vegeta Laughed loudly, almost hysterically again, his face in pure bliss, "Exodys bleeds! He bleeds like any other!" Vegeta's smirk grew wider, "You're no God... and that means you can DIE!!"<br/><br/>"GET HIM, VEGETA!!!" Piccolo couldn't help but scream out, adrenaline pumping through his veins.<br/><br/>Vegeta powered up even more, giving a mighty warrior scream as he did, aura resonating from his body like a light bulb. Exodys then came at him. One arm rose, and he gave an angry yell as his fist hit the sword. For a moment, they both stood there, glaring at each other. Then, slowly, the color drained from Vegeta's face.<br/><br/>"No!" Piccolo was the first to sense it, "Something's wrong!"<br/><br/>Bardock watched, gritting his teeth as he heard Vegeta groan in pain. He held his fist tightly to his chest, heaving in painful breaths. "What, Vegeta?" Bardock called out to him, "What is it??"<br/><br/>Vegeta grit his teeth, the groans getting louder, "Uuunh! Aaahhhh! Bastard... my fist is broke!"<br/><br/>"WHAT?!" Piccolo and Vegeta both cried out in unison.<br/><br/>"Are you deaf?! I said my blasted fist is broken!!" Vegeta turned his head to yell and that was a mistake. VegetaVegeta cried out as he felt a hit to the same arm as his broken hand, and his arm snapped in half. That caught his attention and every time Exodys swung, Vegeta would dodge. He couldn't get his own hits in!<br/><br/>Piccolo was watching, sudden realization hitting his face. It was all coming true... he had hoped... had wished... but it was all coming true. First Krillen... who had met the mean end of Exodys' sword. Then Gohan who had been caught in a blast. Now Vegeta... who would suffer several broken bones before..<br/><br/>"Goku, snap out of it!!" Piccolo suddenly turned and grabbed Goku's shoulders, shaking him roughly, "You have to wake up!"<br/><br/>Vegeta was in trouble. He was having difficulty moving from Exodys. His arm banged around, causing angry and pained groans to escape his mouth. But he never screamed... no... he wouldn't give the bastard the satisfaction! Then, Vegeta hit the ground. He landed face first at first, and he spun around to get up. Then, he felt the blade hit his other arm. He growled in pain, gritting his teeth to keep from screaming. Both eyes opened... and Vegeta knew he was screwed...<br/><br/>Goku's blank stare never ceased. It was like he was lost in himself and Piccolo couldn't shake him from it. Goku blinked slowly, and his head turned back to Krillen, who lied peacefully on the ground, next to the boulder. Gracie was sobbing, her arms cradling one of Krillen's lifeless hands. Goten was sobbing as well, holding the only thing Gohan left behind... a blue wristband.<br/><br/>"Wake up!!" Piccolo's voice sounded so far away, and suddenly Goku realized he was surrounded by a black mass. Goku got to his feet, looking around. What was this place?<br/><br/>'What are you doing, Goku?'<br/><br/>The voice almost seemed like a whisper. But Goku knew this voice. He turned his head, and he let a small smile display on his face as tears rolled down his face, 'Krillen..'<br/><br/>The spirit of his friend shook his jead, a small smile looking back at him, 'You know I can't stay away...' he took a few steps towards Goku, 'You gotta snap out of it, Goku.. they need you..'<br/><br/>Goku shook his head, 'I lost... everything... in minutes... how am I able to beat him when he beat everyone else so quickly?'<br/><br/>Krillen shook his head, sadly moving it side to side, 'Oh Goku..' he stepped up, taking his hand and softly kisses the tips of his fingers. A gentle tug allowed Goku to lean over, and he felt Krillen's lips touch his own for a brief second, before sifting away into the darkness.<br/><br/>'I always had faith in you...'<br/><br/>Goku opened his eyes, back to reality, also golden in color, and what he saw next, set him off.
