Chapter 1: The Saiyan Records Part 1

The Acrosian Saiyan War

.....

"How many Saiyans still have the nerve to disappoint me?" Solemnly, A black spiky-haired man with scars riddling his revealed chest mumbled to himself as he sat on his throne built out of polished stone. A mixture of rage and disappointment is present in his eyes as he eyed what could only be one of his men. "Another planet has been lost? And YOU had the nerve to come back here and not fight for it?"

"Apologies King Sadala. But the Acrosian forces came with one of the lower-tier royals...." Suddenly, the kneeling warrior would flinch in pain before grabbing his now stump of an arm. "That lizard bastard slaughtered my whole squadron before I finished him off. Fortunately, The royal had some Intel stored in the pod he came in."

"Oh?" King Sadala's mood visibly improved as he slightly changed his sitting posture, now attentive to what his lackey had to say, however, small doubt was present in his authoritative eyes. "And what of it? What data from those lizards would outvalue a lost planet and its resources and spare your miserable life?"

The King's ki would flare and weigh down upon the already injured soldier.

"Something that can grant any wish your highness." He said before pulling out what looked to be a futuristic USB. "The technology we stole from the Tuffles was capable of hacking into the data banks present in the pod. In the data was a planet called Earth which the Acrosian empire had already taken over and the leading forces killed a small white furry creature called kami by the people.

"Confused about how an alien species got to Earth, the Acrosian forces used their technology to track the out-of-place ship and soon found it to be an off-course ship from a planet called Namek. The pod that malfunctioned to that planet was reverse engineered and held encrypted information about a pair of mythical balls called dragon balls. They can apparently grant any wish."

Raising his hand, the king would silence the soldier before motioning to a man beside his throne. Understanding his majesty's intentions, he would take the USB as the king pressed a button to the right of his throne. The king leaned forward as a huge circular table with grids and circuits rose from the ground. Once fully revealed, the USB was plugged into the table as a hologram revealing text. Unnecessary information was skillfully sorted by the one operating the table so they could view the information of interest.

A hologram of a galaxy was shown on the left of the hologram with planet Sadala's coordinates along with Planet Namek's highlighted. Information about the dragon balls acquired from the Namekians ship was on the right of the hologram. A message sent from the high command of the Acrosian Empire to every Acrosian royal was also viewable.

'Elite warriors and members of the Acrosian bloodline must show to the coordinates of the planet called Namek by orders of Emperor Violet. Finish your missions as quickly as possible. Failure to follow said acts will conclude in bloodline members being stripped of their rights and warriors facing execution.'

Silently, the king would stare at the message for a good minute or two taking a shaky breath. Greed and desire would fill his eyes as he stared at the information in front of him. Immediately thoughts of immortality clouded his mind as he imagined him standing over the body of emperor Violet with the bodies of countless Acrosians in pieces all around him.

"You can live." The king would immediately act as he threw a stone tablet stored in a little bucket next to his throne. Landing in front of the kneeling Saiyan, the shock would be present on his injured face. "I'll allow you any woman of your choice in our city walls who ranks below a royal. If they dare refuse, show them the tablet and tell them it's the orders of the king. Visit a workshop to get a prosthetic arm also."

Shocked and filled with gratitude for having his life spared, the Saiyan thanked his liege before picking up the tablet and leaving the throne room.

"Bring Namarc to me..." Sadala solemnly said to his right hand. "We cannot be allowed to let that lizard violet get to the Namek dragon balls first. I want the fastest ship we acquired from the Tuffles race to be given to him. NO information of this should be given out to anyone except Namarc. Leave the information about the wishes out of his knowledge."

Standing up, Sadala would walk up to the hologram as he stared at the planet Namek with extreme desire.

"No mistakes will be tolerated. I must have my wish granted!"

...

In the forests of Sadala, the calming reflection of a lake showed both of the planet's moons. A huge ripple would form before two Saiyans burst out of their respective reflections. A Saiyan, an average-looking twenty-six-year-old elite was seen unscathed with a smirk. The other was a ten-year-old Saiyan, bruised and battered with a little bit of annoyance highlighting his eyes, his long hair slightly swaying as it laid at his shoulders.

Taking a deep breath, the older of the two relaxed to take a breath running his hand through his short black hair. "You are combat-ready. But you still need a bit more work to harm me Solace." Dropping his arms to his sides, the oldest took a kneel beside the lake before taking a sip from it. The reflection from the moon didn't seem to affect him at all.

"Tomorrow we'll go to the Oozaru training facilities. The cover there is thin enough for the blutz waves to transform you so you'll finally be able to train and use our race's greatest weapon." He spoke to Solace who was silently collapsed on the ground too tired to speak from the beating he received just earlier.

Flying in from the sky, the Saiyan that was next to King Sadala landed just in front of the oldest who was done speaking with Solace. Immediately and nonchalantly, he would state his business. "Namarc, you are required to go to a planet called Namek to receive some objects dubbed the dragon balls by orders of King Sadala. This is of great secrecy, you are allowed a maximum of 5 people on this mission and are required to leave in a maximum of an hour. Gather at landing pad 0-A." Before Namarc could speak, he was already flying off to help prepare the ship for departure.

"Not even a how are you." Namarc would snicker as he quietly went over the information. Looking over towards Solace who was laying on the ground, he would smile. "Change of plans, you are going to experience some real combat Solace. Prepare your food and water because we'll be flying for a while."

"O-o-on it..." Solace would weakly say as he had enough energy to get up and limp away.

.....

In a densely populated area, many Saiyans flocked around in civilian clothing. Some Low-class Saiyans without a job was getting forced to fight each other in one area for spare change while mid-class warriors and above beat others. The ones with jobs would run meat stands, clothing, and other necessities for a Saiyans lifestyle. Buildings, homes to the ones running the stands, and some warriors surrounded the square.

"Are you joking me?" A woman would say with annoyance as her butcher's knife slammed into the wooden table. Frustration would be present in her tone and eyes as she looked directly into Namarc's eyes. "You have to go on another mission? Again? You just got back from a life and death battle 5 days ago!"

"Orders of King Sadala, I can't ignore that Lily." Namarc would say solemnly to Lily. "I know we were supposed to get married this week, but I'm afraid you'll have to wait a bit longer....." Flexing his right bicep, he flashed a smile of reassurance to her. "...besides I've gotten stronger from that last fight, you know how our bodies work after all."

Giving in to the name of King Sadala, she instantly switched to a tone of acceptance albeit with some frustration still present. Sighing, she suddenly grabbed Narmac by his chest armor before pulling him in for a kiss. Namarc who had already seen it before it happened sensed no malice and accepted the kiss from his fiance. Purring, she bit his bottom lip slightly before releasing him.

"You'll make it up when you get back Nammy." She said a matter of factly before motioning him to leave. "I'll keep the business going while you're gone."

...

Taking a while to find people for the mission, Namarc, Solace, and the other three chosen would stumble around the base for a bit before eventually finding landing pad 0-A. Fully prepped was a ship built by Tuffles of the past.

"Fuel check, Durability check, Course has been set, Food and supplies are ready, ready to board." A female Tuffles would say before handing her clipboard to a male one. Keeping her head down, she would make her way out of the area avoiding eye contact with any Saiyans. A common sight as slaves on planet Sadala could be beaten for the smallest reasons such as breathing.

Namarc and Solace boarded the ship together, a female Saiyan along with a male Saiyan were now with them. On the ship were a kitchen, a training room, and a spacious bathroom. Quarters for sleeping were also available and each other crew member chose their spots.

"Course set, Namek will be reached in 3 Sadala days." The ship's A.I. spoke with monotonous. Namarc who had heard A.I. speak to him before itched at his chest scars before turning away. The crew would make their way towards the training room in need of a fight.... their Saiyan blood required it.

....

(1 Earth day later)

A ship was stationed over a green planet. A big gun is present on top of it with a crew of five different aliens present on it. A blue skinny one with three fingers and two holes for nostrils tapped away at a keyboard present in front of him.

"There are no signs of anti-ship technology. Our images from the mini pod we deployed around the planet show that the Namekian population is decently spread apart from another." Taking one of his fingers, he pointed at a point on a holographic map. "We could land on these areas marked from the map our pod made and won't be noticed. For a race that can make wishes using those dragon balls, their technology isn't the most impressive."

Beeping sounds would come out of a different monitor catching the alien's attention. "Ah, we seem to have a foreign ship to the Arcosian race. Should we blow them up, Captain Brick?" Turning his head towards a huge and muscular green alien with beady eyes and two holes in both sides of his head, he waited for his captain's orders with expectancy.

Slowly the captain would slur his words. "Time for a boom? Make it go boom, Bek." Brick would then just stare with dumb expectancy towards the window. Bek heard his captain's orders cackled with almost childlike excitement before using the keyboard to lock onto the ship with their comically large gun and pressing a button.

"Oh! The buzzing is back!" The captain would laugh as the ship started to buzz and shake as the gun on top radiated a bright orange color.

"You go boom now!"

....

Sitting around, the Saiyans now done with their training and also rested looked towards the green dot called Namek slowly getting larger and larger. Knowing that they would most likely have to end some lives to get the dragon balls, the Saiyans were all in their battle armor ready for anything.

Minus the orange ball of condensed energy flying towards them of course.

The ship's autopilot detected the orange ball of energy but not in time to fully get out of the way. Too quick to react too, the ship had only barely managed to get out of the way before the ball of energy suddenly exploded from behind it. Immediately, the back half of the ship was blown to pieces as everyone in the ship rocketed forward onto the floor. Luckily the room they were in had an air-lock system or else they would all be dead in space. The ship's durability had spared them a few extra seconds of life.

But now, the ship was being rocketed forward at an even greater speed than if it had its boosters intact.

The ship would hit a greater speed as it went even faster towards the now green planet in front of them. Namarc who wasn't stunned by the situation knew that he probably only had 5 seconds before the ship collided with the ground killing both him and everyone on the ship. On his wit's end, he quickly grabbed a hold of the dazed Solace before screaming for the both of them to make a protective layer of ki around each other.

A mixture of dark purple from Solace and a goldish yellow from Namarc formed a very thin yet durable ki barrier around themselves as the ground got closer and closer to their vision. Jumping off the floor of the ship, Namarc used the last second to let his feet leave the ship's ground as it hit the grounds of Namek. The ship immediately folded as it hit the ground crushing in on itself and the stunned Saiyans killing them instantly.

Being thrown out of the ship in their cracked ki barrier, Namarc and Solace braced for impact as the barrier touched the ground. Immediately, the ground started pushing against them as they formed a deep long trench. Not able to take much more after the collision with the surface of the planet, their barrier broke as their now unprotected bodies started digging into the ground. Namarc used this opportunity to shield the young Saiyan from most of the damage. His back felt like it was being burned by the sun itself. Soon, their speed slowed and they bounced from the mile-long trench that they created and hit the side of a plateau. Their bodies dug halfway into said plateau before stopping. Both of them were unconscious and gravely injured.

But at least the Saiyans were alive and slightly breathing. The rocks from the plateau however would fall upon what looked like a house crushing and burying everything in it. A Namekian who was taking care of what looked like a cabbage farm looked towards the rubble in shock.

"WHO THE FUCK!"
