Dragon Ball Z - Raditz: Born Again

Lost Episode #6: Suicidal Course

*In Narrator's Voice*
Previously on Dragon Ball Z! After being controlled by the Black Water Mist, Piccolo and Raditz engage Gohan in battle. They deal massive damage to the young Saiyan boy and he was almost defeated and killed. However, by a stroke of luck, Raditz and Piccolo were not controlled by the Black Water Mist after all. Instead, they pretended to do Garlic Jr.'s bidding just so they can get close to him and rescue Kami and Mr. Popo. Now, only Garlic Jr. and two of the Spice Boys remain but can they turn things around? Find out, today!

After initiating their plan, Piccolo and Raditz finally confront Garlic Jr. While that was going on, Krillin snaps Gohan out of it who asks, "Kami? Mr. Popo? And Krillin?" Krillin smiles at Gohan who looks around and sees Piccolo and Raditz and tells tell, "Piccolo... Uncle Raditz... I-I thought you were..." Piccolo replies, "The Black Water Mist had no effect on us at all." Raditz replies, "Exactly. Saiyans and Namekians have strong resilience than humans and that's why the mist couldn't control us." Gohan replies, "You guys are so cool!" Krillin replies, "Yep! They sure are! We fooled ya! Piccolo and your uncle were good guys all along." Confused, Gohan asks, "But didn't they bite you? I saw them do it." Krillin chuckles and replies, "Gohan, my boy. If there's anything those study books can teach you, it's the illusion of perspective. You see, Gohan, it all happened a while back." We then cut back to when Piccolo and Raditz captured Krillin. For this segment, I'll be handing the mic over to Krillin so he can narrate these events from his point of view. Here you go, Krillin. Thanks, Mr. Narrator Man. Now, when I was captured, Piccolo and Raditz pulled on my arms really hard and I mean really hard! For a sec, I thought I heard my arms being popped out of their sockets! Anyway, that's not the important part. The important part is what happened next. After they were done pulling my arms, Piccolo and your uncle "bit" me on the neck and I won't lie, I almost peed my pants! However, they didn't bite me. Instead, they put their heads so close to my face so Raditz could tell me and forgive my impression, "Listen carefully to me, Baldy because you're the only one who I can rely on. I'm going to attack Gohan now." Then I whispered, "Raditz and Piccolo? Why aren't you biting me?" Piccolo replied, "We were unaffected by the Black Water Mist to trick Garlic Jr. into letting his guard down. He would like nothing more than to see us fight Gohan so we must make this battle look real." Raditz replied, "And when he drops his guard, I will grab the bottles that contain the Old Green Man and the Black Man!" Piccolo replies, "But we can't do without you, Krillin!" The two of them then say together, "Oh, Krillin! You're our only hope!"

Alright, I think I'll take back the mic, Krillin. Oops, my bad! Anyway, back to the present day, Raditz tells Krillin, "I'm pretty sure we didn't say that." Piccolo replies, "Still, I guess it's true what they say. You can't trust anyone anymore." Garlic Jr. chuckles and stands between Vinegar and Spice, and replies, "I won't lie, you had me fooled there. However, enjoy it while it lasts because that's the only time you'll have the edge over me! Isn't that right, Boys?" Spice replies, "Indeed, Lord Garlic." Vinegar replies, "You heard the boss!" The Z-Fighters prepare to fight as Gohan tells his comrades, "You know, the three of you are really good actors. I didn't suspect a thing! You three were acting, weren't you?" Raditz replies, "Believe me, Kiddo, they don't call me the Master of Deception for nothing. I'm so good at deceiving my foes it sometimes scares me." Piccolo replies, "With Mr. Popo and Kami as hostages, that was the only way we could get close enough to Garlic Jr. to release them safely." Kami replies, "Thank you for saving us, Raditz. And thank you, Piccolo, for caring this much to come up with this plan. We are eternally grateful." Piccolo replies, "Spare me your thanks. I didn't rescue the two of you because I wanted to, Kami. The only reason I did it was that with you captured, I couldn't fight at my maximum power without worrying about accidentally destroying you in the process." Kami replies, "Yes, of course." Raditz replies, "Come on, Green Man! Why so serious? You just saved the man's life for crying out loud! The least you can do is show some concern. I mean, don't you die if he dies too?" Piccolo replies, "Be quiet!" Spice asks, "Piccolo dies if the old man dies too? Hmmm... How interesting! What do you think, Lord Garlic?" Garlic Jr. replies, "It means we have to get Kami back no matter the cost! Get them!" Vinegar cracks his knuckles and replies, "With pleasure!" Piccolo replies, "Go! We'll take care of them! Kami, you and Popo deliver the Sacred Water before it's too late!" Kami nods his head and replies, "As you wish! Come on, Popo!" Mr. Popo replies, "Coming, Sir!" Spice chases after them but Raditz kicks him in the face and asks, "Hey, Green Man, mind if I take that one? He reminds me too much of Zarbon." Piccolo replies, "Sure, why not? As for you, Garlic Jr., your plan is going to fail! We're going to send you back to the dark world that you came from! Well, you ready?" Garlic Jr. turns his back on them and replies, "It's not easy taking over the universe. But it's days like this that make it all worthwhile!" He then laughs maniacally until he stops and asks, "Don't you fools realize that it's too late to use the Sacred Water?" Kami asks, "What's that?" Garlic Jr. replies, "It will dawn long before you can spread your Sacred Water over the planet and by then it will be too late! By that time, every living thing on Earth will have succumbed to the effects of the Black Water Mist! They will all belong to me! So no matter how hard you try, you will never be able to defeat me! You are about to witness the birth of a new world of darkness and evil! And I will be the ruler of this beautiful new world!" Angry, Krillin replies, "You monster!" Gohan replies, "No, don't! Please don't!" Garlic Jr. then laughs maniacally.
