Namek: Guldo and Recoome, Fight!

"So Krillin," Gohan said, staring at Guldo as he and Krillin stood their ground, while the rest of the two groups separated to give them all space for their fight, "how should we tackle this guy? Got any ideas?"

"Vegeta commented that he might have the ability to stop time," Krillin replied, watching Guldo as the alien approached them, though not close enough to actually hear what they were saying between each other, "We should see what he's capable of before we do anything else. Maybe we can discover what his abilities truly are before actually planning on how to take him out."

"You sure we shouldn't just take him out before he can show off whatever abilities he has?" Gohan asked, wondering what Krillin was thinking by even considering that they should let Guldo show them his moves.

"No, I meant that we should force him to show his had so we can better prepare for whatever tricks he has," Krillin said, realizing that his original statement must have made Gohan think that he wanted them to be beaten up for a few moments to learn what Guldo was capable of doing, "Let's release our ki and show him that we mean business."

Gohan nodded and together the two of them released their full power, or rather what their hidden potential had given them thanks to the Grand Elder releasing what had been trapped inside them. They both knew that their power didn't compare to either Rainbow or Applejack, whose power made Krillin think they had been trained by a god, but judging from the shocked faces in front of them they both knew that none of the Ginyu's were expecting this from either of them.

"What's this?" Guldo asked, watching a faint aura appear around his opponents, just like what happened with him and the rest of his squad whenever they were flying from place to place.

Gohan and Krillin, taking advantage of Guldo's confusion, burst into the air and sailed upwards for a few seconds, though when they had reached a decent spot the two of them stopped. Krillin looked over at Gohan, who nodded that he understood what they were going to do, before turning his attention back to Guldo and gathering a few bits of ki into his hands, in the same fashion that Goku used to power the Kamehameha. Gohan, on the other hand, raised his hands to his head and gathered some ki in them as well, preparing a low powered Masenko, which he had picked up in his training with Piccolo before the Saiyan invasion. A few seconds later they aimed their attacks at Guldo and fired at will, knowing that this was going to show them exactly what their opponent's abilities were.

They both noticed Guldo take a breath before throwing his hands into the air, though at that exact moment both Krillin and Gohan moved away from their attacks and headed towards Guldo... though a second later he was no longer standing where they had last seen him and they stumbled for a moment. Their attacks collided with the location that Guldo had previously been standing in, though he used the smoke cloud to cover his escape so he could come up with a plan.

"So, he really can stop time," Krillin commented, to which Gohan nodded his silent agreement, telling Krillin that he had felt the same thing happen to him for a few brief seconds, "Well then, if that's his only ability then we should be able to plan around it and take him by surprise... and maybe end this fight before someone gets seriously hurt."

"We've also increased our destructive power, all thanks to the Grand Elder." Gohan added, as he was also amazed by the amount of damage he was able to pull off now, while at the same time knowing that it still didn't compare to Rainbow's lance.

Krillin actually paused for a moment to consider the consequences of allowing Rainbow to unlock her hidden potential, because if this was what their power was able to do when it had been released there was no telling how destructive that lance was at this point. Its original power was enough to create a Lookout sized hole in the ground, to the exact same diameter, so there was no telling how much more destructive Rainbow, or her lance, had become. Not to mention they hadn't actually seen Applejack's moves the entire time they had been on Namek, which meant that whatever abilities she had picked up during her training with King Kai were empowered as well.

It was in moments like this that Krillin was actually glad that Applejack and Rainbow Dash were on their side, because even if neither of the girls had gotten their powers released, and he and Gohan were forced to fight them, he knew that they would have lost in the end... but before he could delve deeper down that train of thought he shook his head and returned his focus to the battle in front of him.

Their next test of Guldo's abilities involved them flying towards their opponent, but before he could do anything they separated from each other and increased their speed, flashing from one point in the sky to another point. As they did that Krillin noticed that all four of Guldo's eyes were getting dizzy, as he was having a hard time keeping track of them, to which he signaled to Gohan that they should move in closer. The moment they appeared in front of Guldo, and prepared to hit him with their fists, Krillin felt the sensation that time had stopped for a brief second before he and Gohan were allowed to move again... with Guldo no longer where he had been standing seconds ago, but rather had broken a piece of the ground he had been standing on and was now laying on his back.

"Kamehame," Krillin said, gathering his ki for a moment, while noticing that Gohan had noticed what he was doing and was preparing his own attack in case he ended up missing, "HA!"

Krillin's attack raced towards where Guldo was laying, though it ended up missing as their opponent rolled out of the way and got back on his feet so he could flee. Gohan's attack, however, just barely missed Guldo as he moved to the left a tiny bit, again causing him to roll out of the way so he didn't get hurt by the destruction behind him. When Guldo finally came to a stop, an picked himself up, both Krillin and Gohan noticed that he was already getting tired, which made sense to them considering the fact that it must have taken up quite a lot of his energy to freeze time like that, even if it was for a few seconds so he could run away.

"Krillin, if we keep attacking him like this he'll run out of energy!" Gohan said, coming to the same conclusion that Krillin had reached, while at the same time keeping his eyes on their opponent, "We can actually win this fight!"

"Not if he's got another ability we don't know about," Krillin remarked, because Vegeta had said that Guldo had physic abilities, which meant that if he could stop time, which he had demonstrated, then maybe he could paralyze them without freezing time, "Gohan, keep him distracted for as long as you can... I have an idea that will end this fight for real."

Gohan, not really understanding what Krillin was talking about, merely nodded his head and fired a ki blast at the ground, giving off enough dirt and smoke from the impact that Guldo wouldn't see where Krillin went until it was too late. As Krillin moved into position Gohan readied both himself and his ki, knowing that it was only a mater of time until their opponent revealed whatever hidden ability Krillin was worried about.

Guldo, on the other hand, cursed himself for not being able to attack either of his opponents when he had last stopped them, because it was getting to the point where all he could do was dodge until something better came to mind. He glanced over at his companions for a few seconds and noticed that they were making a bet on when he could finish his opponents off, though by the looks of it he could only see Recoome and Burter making a wager. Before he could even consider what the time frame on the bet was, which was one of the things the others made wagers on, one of his enemies flashed through the air and came at him, while the other was absent at the moment. Guldo, not wanting to take any chances, froze time once more and retreated, heading behind a rock so he could gather his energy for a few moments so that the next time he froze time he could return fire.

When time resumed again Guldo didn't expect to be found out so quickly, which caused him to retreat and roll out of the way as the small child released several energy blasts at him.

"This is disgraceful!" Burter shouted, knowing that the one was to get Guldo to improve was to assault him with words, specifically phrases that would force him to show his true power, "You're going to bring shame upon the Ginyu Force!"

"Guldo, you dummy," Recoome added, enjoying this part of Guldo's fights, where they could actually say nasty things to him and not get punished by their captain later on, "If you get beaten by those pipsqueaks, I'm not going to play with your anymore!"

"You'll have to take your three o'clock snack separately as well!" Jeice threw in, knowing that one of the things that Guldo enjoyed, on the same level as being a member of the Ginyu Force, was eating the three o'clock snack with everyone else.

Guldo moaned to himself, knowing that they were being serious about their threats, as it was the only way of telling him that he needed to improve without telling his opponents the same thing. The threats were the worst thing about being the weakest member of the Ginyu Force, as the other three could do it all the time and not get punished for it, but it helped him understand when playtime was over. Guldo gathered his energy an activated his trump card, releasing a blue haze of sorts that trapped the child where he was flying, though at the same time he knew he had to be cautious because the bald one was still missing.

"This is my paralysis technique!" Guldo declared with a smile on his face, because if he could take one off his opponents down then the other would swiftly follow suit, "No matter how hard you struggle, you won't be able to move! Oh, what's wrong? What happened to all that energy you had earlier?"

"Its right here!" a voice behind him shouted, though before Guldo could turn around his head went flying through the air, allowing him to see a large disk made of energy fly by where his body was, cleanly decapitating him as both his head and his body hit the ground.

Gohan, now free from the paralysis technique, noticed that Krillin had pulled himself out from behind the rock he had hidden himself behind and was walking towards the body. Gohan landed and wiped the sweat off his forehead, because he was glad that Krillin had a plan the moment he realized that there had to be another ability that they hadn't seen yet, while at the same time wishing that he had been talked to for a few seconds so he knew what to do.

"Wh... what was that?" Guldo asked, though while one set of his eyes watched the bald one approach him the second set noticed that his companions were as shocked as he was.

"My Destructo Disc." Krillin replied, ki dancing around his hands for a moment, "You asked where our energy went and I gave you an answer... and now you'll pay for all the lives you've taken over the years."

Before anyone could say anything Krillin loosed a ki blast that blew up Guldo's head, before turning around and loosing a bigger one that consumed the rest of his body as well, much to the surprise of Gohan and several other people.

"Oh my Frieza, they killed Guldo!" Burter exclaimed, shocked that the weakest member of their force was now dead, because while he knew it was mean to pick on him he actually liked having someone around that they could teach and help improve.

"YOU BASTARDS!" Jeice shouted in rage, but before he could launch himself into the arena, and smack Guldo's killers into the nearby plateau, Ginyu held a hand out and stopped him cold, indicating that he should save his rage for his own opponent, to which Jeice silently nodded his understanding and crossed his arms.

Gohan and Krillin quickly returned to where the rest of their group was standing, where they discovered that most of them were somewhat shocked by what Krillin did, but the only one that was definitely smiling was Vegeta.

"That was some great thinking on your part," Vegeta said, patting Krillin on the back as he and Gohan took a seat on the area their group had claimed for themselves, "Truthfully I expected you to continue with the frontal assault and have one of us step in to take Guldo out, but using that move of yours, while he was distracted, was excellent thinking."

"I'm just glad that he left himself open, otherwise that wouldn't have worked so well," Krillin admitted, though he looked up at Vegeta for a few seconds, "Good luck against that Recoome fellow."

Vegeta nodded and jumped down into the area that Gohan and Krillin had been in while they fought Guldo, though as he approached the center he noticed that Recoome was walking towards him as well. He knew that Recoome was stronger than Guldo, as was Jeice and Burter, but considering he knew nothing about the man he knew that this was going to be a tough fight. It still struck Vegeta as odd that he could only find rumors on Guldo and his abilities, almost as if the other four members had purposely tried to keep themselves hidden so none of their future enemies could gain the upper hand on them.

"Okay Vegeta, now its our turn." Recoome said, cracking his knuckles as he stared at Vegeta, who dropped into a battle stance before the man did anything else, "Oh, and I won't be mad if those two pipsqueaks join the fight as well. In fact, I openly welcome them to join us and use as many dirty tricks as they like... it won't matter in the end anyway."

Vegeta had no intention on calling for backup, not when he already knew that the Ginyu's were under orders to keep him alive until he handed over the location of the Dragon Balls. Unfortunately he suspected that Recoome was going to try and beat him up to a point where he wouldn't have the ability to run until all of the fighting was taken care of. If anything it seemed like Ginyu might spare anyone that wasn't supposed to die until they were all beaten, so those that were defeated could see their fiends fail before he executed those that Frieza didn't want to torture.

Before Vegeta did anything, and started his attack, Recoome moved his arms and legs around for a moment, saying that he was from the Ginyu Force and that his name was Recoome, before coming to a pose that was essentially him leaning forward with one leg touching the ground while the other was pointed behind him... while his head was in some sort of bowing position. The moment Recoome was done with his movement, and was still standing in the same position, Vegeta decided that now wasn't the time to play around and did what Krillin and Gohan did for their fight. Vegeta released all of his ki, to which he heard all four active scouters beep as they scanned his power level, but before anyone could comment on it he flew towards Recoome and punched him square in the jaw... hard enough to dislodge the scouter he had been wearing.

As Recoome flew backwards, and made no move to defend himself, Vegeta flew into the area that his opponent was heading towards and used his fists to knock his foe into the ground. With that done Vegeta flew into the air for a few seconds, to gain some distance between him and Recoome, before he flipped around and flew right back down towards his target, to which he flipped over and drove both his feet into his foe's chest plate. Before the man could recover Vegeta jumped off of him, picked him up by his left foot, and swung him around for a few times before he sent him flying towards a different island, to which he smiled when Recoome crashed into the plateau he had been flying towards.

By this point Vegeta was sure that Recoome was going to get back up and come at him, so before that happened he held both of his hands out to the side, gathered his ki for a few seconds, before bringing them together and releasing a large ki blast that tore the island he had been aiming at to pieces.

"This can't be right," Jeice said, looking from his scouter to Vegeta, as if he was trying to understand what was happening before his eyes, "Vegeta's power level just shot up to thirty thousand."

"Don't worry Jeice, that's not enough power to take out Recoome." Ginyu said, speaking for the first time since the fighting started, though there was a hint of anger that was likely left over from Guldo's death, "Vegeta may have powered himself up by defeating Dodoria and Zarbon, but that doesn't mean that he's got the ability or the power to take down Recoome."

"Of course sir, I have never doubted Recoome's abilities," Jeice replied, his eyes still locked on the location that Recoome had been thrown into, "I'm sure that he's going to get right back up and show Vegeta what he is made of!"

When the smoke finally cleared they found Recoome standing in the middle of it all, though while his pose consisted of his legs being crossed and his hands positioned away from his body, it was clear that Vegeta's attack had completely destroyed his suit of armor... leaving him with the suit that went under the armor.

"That's enough for the warmup exercises," Recoome said to himself, which was followed by him flying through the air and landing in front of the rest of his squad, though he chose to ignore the glare that his captain was giving him, "Well then Vegeta, shall we get started, or have you spent too much energy already?"

"Oh, I have more than enough energy to continue fighting you," Vegeta replied, knowing that this was going to be a hard fight if his first series of attacks was anything to go by, to which he dropped into a battle stance and beckoned for Recoome to come at him.

"Its your funeral," Recoome said, dropping into his own battle stance as he prepared himself, as he was ready to get the fight started and unleash a painful punishment upon Vegeta, "Recoome Kick!"

The moment the words left his mouth Recoome flew right at Vegeta and planted his right knee in Vegeta's face, knocking him backwards for a few seconds, though he quickly recovered and flipped around in the air, to which he landed safely on a rock. That was quickly followed by Vegeta flying through the air and throwing a bunch at Recoome, which forced them to engage in a series of blows with each other where they either threw a punch or blocked an incoming one. While they did that Recoome taunted Vegeta, saying that he was pretty good and that he had underestimated how much strength he had, but Vegeta really didn't pay too much attention to what his opponent was saying.

Their exchange quickly came to an end when Recoome switched to one of his named attacks, the Recoome Elbow as he called it, and sent Vegeta flying towards the ground, who grunted after making contact with the rocks and dirt. Vegeta did, however, throw himself backwards to avoid Recoome's fist, which cracked the area around where he had landed, but even then Recoome didn't give up. Recoome followed Vegeta into the air, easily dodging a ki blast that had been thrown his way, before appearing behind Vegeta and hitting him so hard that he flew down towards the water.

As the water settled down both Burter and Jeice could be heard cheering Recoome on, while their captain maintained his silence as he watched the fight, but after a few more seconds Vegeta burst out of the water and flew right into Recoome's chest... but after rising into the air for a few seconds Recoome grinned as he latched onto Vegeta an flew down towards the ground. That was followed by Recoome planting Vegeta in the ground, as the upper half of his body was buried under the ground while the lower half remained above the ground, all while Recoome stood nearby with a smile on his face.

"Hey now, are you okay?" Recoome asked, almost in a mocking tone as he grabbed onto one of Vegeta's legs and pulled him out of the ground, "Don't tell me you've kicked the bucket already, especially when we just got started fighting."

That was immediately followed by Vegeta pulling his hands back for a brief couple of seconds before launching a ki blast in Recoome's face, knocking the man backwards as he loosened his grip on Vegeta, who merely landed in the hole that had been created seconds earlier. After a few seconds Vegeta picked himself up and moved out of the hole that he was in, though as he looked back at Recoome the man flipped around and got on his feet, to which Vegeta discovered that the only thing he had damaged was his opponent's hair.

"There's the reason Lord Frieza adored you so much so long ago," Recoome commented, a smile on his face as he stared at Vegeta, "but why would you turn your back on him Vegeta?"

"Because he's an evil tyrant that destroys lives and leaves nothing but ruin in his wake," Vegeta replied, causing Recoome to frown for a moment, "Allow me to be clear on something, I never enjoyed heading out to planets on his orders, nor did I enjoy the feeling of killing the 'innocent' people he sent me after. I took down tyrants, saved innocent people before their lives were ruined, helped rebuild whatever had been destroyed during an assault, and even took out Nappa before he could reduce another world to ash. I killed Dodoria and Zarbon, both of whom were responsible for so many horrible events that I'm not going to bother listing them for you... because soon you and the rest of the Ginyu Force will be joining them."

"Oh, so you are one of those cowardly heroes that has to fight the villain because its the right thing to do, how boring." Recoome stated, looking like he was going to be sick for a moment, before glaring at Vegeta and moving his hands around again, "Very well, I'm going to bring an end to this fight with one of my finishing moves... Recoome Eraser Gun!"

Recoome opened his mouth and fired a large ki blast at Vegeta, though before the Saiyan could do anything, or even attempt to dodge the attack, Krillin appeared above Recoome's head and slammed his elbow into the man's skull, closing his mouth and trapping the rest of his attack inside his mouth. At the same time Gohan appeared next to Vegeta and grabbed onto him, pulling him out of the way as the first half of Recoome's attack passed by where Vegeta had previously been standing, though the island it eventually ran into was destroyed in an instant. Krillin briefly landed behind Recomme's body before jumping over to where Vegeta and Gohan were, to which he helped them both onto their feet as he kept an eye on their opponent.

"Thanks for the rescue," Vegeta said, coughing a few times as he turned his eyes towards Recoome, "It seems that he was more than willing to kill me, despite the fact that I'm sure Frieza ordered them to take me alive."

"He's not dead yet, isn't he?" Gohan commented, to which they watched as the man got back up onto his feet and glared at them, where they noticed that he was now missing a good number of his teeth thanks to the attack.

"He's got some incredible endurance, I have to give him that," Krillin threw in, though at the same time he had to wonder just how much more power the man had left in him at the moment, because at the moment it looked like Recoome was winning this fight.

"That sneak attack just now was pretty good," Recoome stated, glaring at the three people that were standing in front of him, "coming down from directly above shut my mouth, which was something I was no aware of. As a result my teeth are all messed up, which means I might be a little mad for a minute or two. Now I'm going to beat you both up, as for revenge for killing Guldo and for making me mad. Big Fire Toe Attack!"

Vegeta had enough time to push himself and Gohan out of the way as Recoome came near them, but unfortunately Krillin was his main target an he ended up receiving a painful kick to the face that sent him crashing into the ground... hard enough where Gohan and Vegeta could hear several of his bones breaking in an instant. Gohan looked up at Vegeta for a moment, as if asking what to do next, but the Saiyan merely patted his back for a second, to which Gohan quickly helped him rest near the others before heading over to Krillin.

"Krillin, are you okay?" Gohan asked, as he was worried about his friend, while ignoring the fact that Recoome was approaching the two of them one step at a time.

"No, he rendered me useless in one hit," Krillin moaned, clearly struggling to move, but the broken bones and the pain associated with them was making it impossible for him to do anything, "Gohan, you should get back to the others and let Rainbow or Applejack have their turns... they'll distract the others until Goku arrives."

"What's this? You have another ally coming?" Recoome commented, appearing beside Gohan and grabbing his head with his left hand, to which he picked him up and threw him at one of the rock plateaus around them, "Too bad he'll arrive to find a cluster of dead bodies where all of you are standing."

Gohan growled and flipped around in the air, to which he touched the rock plateau for a few seconds before returning to a standing position and glaring at Recoome. Gohan then charged at Recoome and flipped over his head, though the moment he was behind him he kicked his face, which ended up doing no damage, and then followed it with a punch that was ultimately blocked. Recoome then tossed Gohan into the air and started throwing small ki charges at him, to which he dodged the attacks coming his way and gathered his own ki so he could try and best his opponent. After a few more attacks passed by him, which he ended up dodging, Gohan focused his ki into his hands, which were now above his forehead, and he loosed a Masenko at Recoome... which the man blocked with both of his hands and destroyed in a matter of seconds.

Gohan landed near the smoke and watched as it cleared, revealing that Recoome had suffered no damage from the attack and was merely clapping his hands together.

"You're good, I'll give you that," Recoome stated, as if he was pleased to have a worthy opponent after besting Vegeta, "you made my hands hurt for a moment there. Now then... its my turn."

Recoome appeared behind Gohan and kicked him into the air, sending him flying for a couple of seconds while he was unable to recover, before moved above his head and delivering two painful punches that knocked him into the ground, which was then followed by Recoome slamming his rear into Gohan and throwing him painfully into the ground. Recoome stared at Gohan as he approached his aching body, with a wide grin on his face, though that grin only got bigger as Gohan got back up and charged his ki into his fists. Gohan released another Masenko at his opponent, though all Recoome did was blow a gust of wind and redirected the blast back at Gohan, forcing him into the air.

That was roughly followed by Recoome appearing behind Gohan and slamming his hand into his collar, knocking Gohan into a pile of rocks that were on the ground, which resulted in him struggling to get onto his feet while spitting out some blood from his mouth. Recoome smiled as he slammed his fists into Gohan, knocking him into the ground a few more times until throwing him into another one of the plateaus, which broke when Gohan hit it. At this point Gohan knew that he, Krillin, and Vegeta didn't stand a chance at beating Recoome, he was so much stronger than all three of them, but he knew that the man would have problems with either Applejack or Rainbow if he fought ended up fighting them.

Recoome raised his hand, as if he was going to deliver a punch that would kill Gohan, but as the fist fell he found that his arm had been stopped for a moment... and that his captain was shaking his head, indicating that those they weren't required to capture would all die at the same time, after they witnessed the defeat of their comrades. Recoome frowned as he lowered his hand and walked back to where the rest of his squad was standing, mumbling about not being able to kill anyone this time around.

"Call forth your next fighter," Ginyu told Gohan, not even bothering to look at the young boy as he walked away, "for soon you'll be wishing that you handed over the Dragon Balls and saved yourselves from what's coming your way."

The wind behind Ginyu shifted and he looked backwards for a moment, to which Rainbow appeared next to Gohan for a few seconds and quickly moved the wounded boy back to where the rest of their group was waiting. He turned towards the wounded bald man for a second and noticed that he had been moved, no doubt either due to the one called Applejack when he wasn't looking. He waited for a few moments before turning towards where the young boy had been seconds ago, where Rainbow was standing once more, though she looked ready for a fight.

Ginyu grinned as Burter jumped into the area and traded places with him, because he was certain that Burter and Jeice would be able to beat the last two of their opponents... and then they could please Lord Frieza by bringing him Vegeta and Rainbow, where he would learn where the Dragon Balls were located and gain immortality while doing whatever he wanted to the young girl. He would have pitied Rainbow if they had met on different terms, but she had brought this fate upon herself and he was more than willing to please his boss... which is why he grinned all the way back to where he had been standing earlier. His companions were just as eager to see the results of the next two matches, though if Recoome's match was anything to go by they would soon be returning to their boss with what he had requested in no time.

Despite losing Guldo, and Recoome's armor, today was turning out to be a fun and interesting day for the Ginyu Force... and Ginyu suspected that his luck was only going to improve once Burter and Jeice finished beating up their opponents.
