Chapter 2 - Chapter 2 - Birth of a True Saiyan and the Tyrany of Frieza

Through the eyes of Kakarot, a very different story was unfolding. Whilst enjoying the wonderous liquid and wholeness state, it left Kakarot free reign for sharp and constant observation of everything. At first, this observation had no focus and was all-inclusive until his eyes opened, pushing all drowsiness away and peering through the liquid. As soon as his eyes opened, the liquid seeped in, which didn't hurt per se, but provide a new and strange sensation, which grew to become an amazing and hurting effect. His sight not only gained clarity but strength. Kakarot could feel the increased ease it took to not only keep his eyes open but the reduction of strain required to see.

Not too long after this act, Kakarot's sight peered through the see-through container pod, revealing the wider world. Memories of his first moment alive remained prevalent and if it weren't for a hot and lovely feeling deep in his chest, he would have reacted in distaste, rage and sorrow. Whilst Kakarot didn't understand concepts, words or feelings, he did possess an innate intuition which relaxed him. It led his mind to know that somewhere beyond the world he could see, was his mother who loved him unconditionally. With this feeling and innate understanding came a strange command. Kakarot was guided to rest well, or more accuracy to stay put.

Kakarot simply adapted and abided by this feeling and released all cares and worries about exiting and leaving his current home. A huge surge of excitement quickly replaced his previous worries and feelings in order to discover new things like the magical liquid, making his eyes stronger. What followed next was strange, yet the hyperactive display of movement. If seen from the outside, the display would reveal a strange, awake boy who seemed to vibrate and move nigh-ever moveable limb and digit with no rhyme or reason for it.

Almost immediately Kakarot felt a new and scary feeling of pain, as he moved his body for the first time. However, something deeper and stronger nurtured his excited state, encouraging him to keep going. And what reinforced this direction, was the magical liquid which immediately seemed explode into restorative action. Not only was the magical liquid exploding into action, but very soon Kakarot felt an explosion inside himself, another magical liquid which bubbled and became agitated with his excitement also. Blood pumped and coursed with an intense motion, further strengthening him and aiding in resisting any pain or strain he felt. In fact, his blood seemed to thrive off the pain and strain, whilst the magical liquid outside seemed to want nothing more than to heal and restore any damage.

Time was irrelevant to Kakarot but at some point, the newborn stopped moving after pushing past the fatigue and tiredness to the point where his body couldn't improve any further. The huge expelling of energy and the vicious movements had reached a point where all known movements were completely free and able. All pain and fatigue vanished from his body, but what replaced it was strange mental fatigue which wasn't quite related to his brain but which originated from somewhere deeper. Kakarot was immensely pleased with what he had accomplished and without any disabling thoughts or feelings, fell into the mental fatigue, closed his eyes and drifted to sleep.

At an unknown amount of time, Kakarot arose from his unconscious state and awoke to feel a huge gap for his body to reach. A deep innate understanding that all of his exercises had stretched his body to provide with room to grow. Without hesitation, Kakarot continued the previous day's chaotic movement, only this time discovering that the areas of improvement were focused in certain areas, such as muscles, bone joints and digits. It soon became a strange game, in order to discover a new pain and discomfort in which afterwards targetted training would commence.

As time went by, Kakarot's exercising reduced more and more until only a constant and passive clenching action created any difference. His instinct led him to a whole new enterprise. His mind. Deep within his mind was a strange, primal and powerful beast which Kakarot felt a connection too, linked with his tail, blood and eyes. As he increased his training, his moments of sleep became both shorter and more intense, due to increased awareness and spirit. Now, Kakarot floated after reaching the threshold that his current body could achieve and peered into the huge, primal eyes of a giant ape.

Kakarot and the ape locked eyes and did nothing but compete in a battle of wills. Each one had a desire to understand the other, understand the connection that linked them both and until a complete trust could be established, they could only treat each other as a potential threat. What followed next, a deep slumber, in which Kakarot remained within his mind staring and opening himself up more and more to the connection to this beast. No judgement was held toward the ape, nor did his intuition provide any warning, which was all the reason he needed to be so gentle and open.

From outside, Kakarot's body underwent a radical transformation during the span of 2 years. With his previous exercising taking almost 1 year to reach his current state. During these two years, his body remained in the intensely tense and strained state, which the magical liquid continually restored and relaxed, given more and more room to tense and grow. Every so often, Kakarot would feel the source of his great love, appear outside his pod, still giving out the simple yet deeply felt instruction to rest and grow well. It provided him with more and more power, which translated into a greater understanding of power as he continued to battle the giant ape. It also causes his blood and body to relax every so often. A constant cycle of intense rest followed by intense strain, with his body doing so innately at the perfect intervals for each state.

Finally, as if fate had required a result, Kakarot and the giant ape felt an internal 'click' followed by a rush of feelings, emotions and thoughts to be sent to one another. This gave each party a full understanding of the other and thus giving each other no reason to treat each other as a threat. The conclusion of all this came with a strange fusion of both Kakarot and the giant ape. Kakarot's shape was retained but his size increased by a factor of 2, whereas his power had increased by a factor of 10, followed by a very physical transformation of the same.

Outside the pod, Bardock rushed into the incubation warehouse, his eyes fixed upon the pod with Kakarot's name on and with immense speed and strength, appeared before the pod, removed it from its eternal connections and then continued to rush out of the area, flying rapidly towards the space pod warehouse nearby. Bardock's persona and actions revealed a high-tense situation along with a resolute expression, which had already decided to act upon his immediate future actions. The incubation pod was placed close to an older space pod model, and with the aid of a frightened mechanic, Kakarot's pod was installed into the attack pod, which would make sure that Kakarot had enough nutrients to last the one-way trip. The space pod model was unique due to its old educational system, which was created before the time of Frieza. It was easy for Bardock to have the brainwashing program removed, and remove the tracking device which was installed inside every pod.

Bardock pushed a big button to start the ignition and without hesitation, summoned a powerful energy ball, hurtling towards the mechanic, killing the alien nigh-instantly. A single moment was taken, by Bardock in order to look towards his son hurtling away from the planet, towards a distant low-threat planet. The moment ended, with an explosion of rage.

"FRIEZA!!! You will see how foolish it is, to piss of a Saiyan. Because I WILL KILL YOU!!!"

A charging swirl of potent red energy circulated around Bardock before it exploded downwards, as Bardock blasted into the air, destroying anything in his path without care. His destination was a huge spaceship high above the planet, along with a huge collection of Frieza's soldiers who looked suspiciously ready for war. To the Saiyan's down on the ground, all they saw was a rapid warrior charging madly at the collection of warriors. They saw a warrior who could arguably be titled the strongest Saiyan tear through soldier after soldier until his flight reach one tiny figure, sitting in a strange technological throne. However, this was when things went ugly.

The small figure sitting elegantly and with casual air about him, spoke a few words of humour towards the charging Saiyan before holding a single finger forward. Before Bardock, the remaining soldiers and the Saiyan's on the planet, a tiny ball of the most chaotic but powerful energy started to grow from nothing, reaching a size many times bigger than the spaceship. This charged energy ball of death, crushed the will of every being alive. Even without a scouter, every being felt the instinct of death approaching. With a simple flick of his fingers, Frieza's Death Ball hurtled at speed into Bardock, the soldiers and into the planet's core before exploding all into dust.

Unseen by the powerful tyrant, a single pod flew away from the planet. A. Saiyan who saw and felt the entire thing, without error. Kakarot floated silently, his eyes remaining fixed upon the planet that he originated at, but more importantly the place where his great love came from. A pain like no other broke out of his heart and soul, as the reality of what happened nigh-destroyed him. His father had only provided a strange feeling of duty and responsibility to one day destroy the being who destroyed his home. A destiny which he innately knew couldn't be refused, only delayed. Yet it was the love message from his mother, a message of living well, of loving well and of resting well which he held onto with all of his will power. It was love, that stayed his power and anger from potentially destroying his pod and thus his only chance of survival.

Instead, Kakarot gazed at the being with a resolute expression. Whilst he had no words that could express his determined goal, his heart would forever keep his nemesis as his ultimate destiny. And almost as a visible show of respecting this goal, the educational program had completed its integration into Kakarot's brainwaves and was about to start its programs. Kakarot would learn as slow or as fast as he was able naturally. But with his resolute decision, he had a fiery Will which would push him beyond the norm of Saiyan learning.

The Saiyan race has almost been completely destroyed by the hands of a powerful Tyrant. And Kakarot, one of the last survivors has made it his ultimate goal, to destroy Frieza for what he has done. Only time will tell, if and when Kakarot will be able to achieve said goal.
