Piccolo was training by himself, and his eyes widened when he sensed a strong energy. It was coming towards Earth, fast.

"Did you feel that! I-It can't be!" Piccolo heard Nail's voice in his mind.

"Frieza! There's no way!" Piccolo exclaimed, shocked. He quickly took off, heading to where Frieza's energy was coming from. He sensed a couple of more energies up ahead, as well. One was also coming towards him at a fast speed.

"Piccolo!" Piccolo heard Ocarin call out to him, and she flew over, flying beside him. "You felt it, too?" Piccolo asked her. Ocarin nodded.

"Yes. I felt it on the Lookout. I can't believe Frieza survived!" she shouted.

"I'm sure the others have felt it was well." Piccolo said. Ocarin nodded before she turned her head when she sensed something. An energy in the opposite direction from where there heading, very small. Piccolo noticed.

"Is there something wrong?" Piccolo asked her.

"I'm going to check something out. I'll catch up." Ocarin told him. Piccolo made a small nod and Ocarin quickly darted as she flew away, heading to where she sensed the other energy. Piccolo continued ahead until he spotted the other Z fighters, along with Yamcha, Bulma and Vegeta. Tien, Bulma and Yamcha were arguing with Vegeta, not too happy to see the Saiyan prince, while Bulma was and was also eager to see Frieza. Piccolo quietly landed behind them without them noticing him.

"Be quiet! I'd rather Frieza's scouters didn't detect us because of your incessant jabbering!" Vegeta shouted at Tien, Yamcha and Bulma. Besides, all this scary talk is upsetting the Namek."

"The Namek?" Yamcha questioned. Everyone turned their heads and finally noticed Piccolo, standing a few feet away from them.

"Piccolo!" Yamcha spoke, shocked to see him. "How long have you been standing there?"

"Long enough to hear all of your senseless bickering!" Piccolo snorted. Gohan and Krillin landed near them when they spotted the group.

"Gohan! Krillin! You made it!" Bulma smiled.

"Hey! Any word from Goku?" Yamcha asked them. Gohan shook his head, silently. Then he looked around when he noticed that Ocarin wasn't around and saw Piccolo.

"Piccolo!" Gohan smiled, happy to see him. "Hey, where's Ocarin?"

"She'll be here, momentarily. She got sidetracked and had to check something out." Piccolo told him.

"Sidetracked?" Krillin murmured. "Just when we need her at a time like this!"

"He's here!" Piccolo spoke when he sensed Frieza's ship, coming closer. Everyone gaped when they saw Frieza's massive ship flew over them and landed a couple of yards away over a ridge. Everyone kept low to the ground to avoid Frieza's scouters from detecting them then they peered over some rocks to see Frieza. He was covered in cybernetics and patches, holding him together. His father, King Cold, was standing beside him.

Then everyone saw a young man with short light purple hair hovering above Frieza and his father, in the air, facing them. The young man was wearing an indigo capsule corps jacket, black tank top, dark grey pants with a white belt and golden boots, strapped on his back was a large broadsword. The group could barely hear, other than Piccolo with his enhanced hearing, listening in as the young man exchanged words with Frieza and his father. Then the three immediately began to clash against each other.

Within a few minutes the young man turned into a super saiyan and quickly took out Frieza and his father, effortlessly slicing the two up into ribbons with his broadsword. The group watched in awe as well as in shock, wondering who he was and how only he was able to outmatch Frieza and take him out. Then Piccolo's eyes widen when he saw the man turn his head over towards their direction. The man knew that they were watching this entire time! He smiled and pointed out telling them to follow him.

"Hey! You're looking for Goku, right? In another hour or so he'll be here. So, in the meantime, let's wait for him." He called out.

Who was this mysterious man and how did he know Goku?

Ocarin followed the trail of energy that she had sensed, and it led her to a nearby forest. She landed and began to search around for the strange signature. It felt strong but also weak at the same time, fluctuating ever now and then. Then Ocarin heard loud wails that sounded like a baby crying as she got closer. When Ocarin peeled back a layer of branches and stepped out into a small opening, up head she saw a small figure failing on the ground. Ocarin blinked and let a small gasp in shock and walked closer.

A baby Namekian?

His skin was as lighter green and on his chin was a pale-yellow stripe running down to the center of his chest, wearing a purple robe over a white vest and dark pants. The baby Namekian immediately stopped crying once he saw Ocarin then started to coo happily reaching out to her. "Hello, little one?" Ocarin spoke, picking him up, still not believing what she was seeing. "How did you end up way out here? Did you get separated from the Namekians when they left to find a new home? Man, Piccolo's not going to believe this!" The baby cooed in her arms, gripping her shirt tightly and reached up to her face.

"Let's go find him. He's probably found the others by now." Ocarin said and she closed her eyes, focusing in on Piccolo's energy or the others until she finally found them. She vanished within a blink of an eye and teleported straight to them, suddenly appearing. Krillin, Yamcha and Gohan jumped, completely startled.

"Did I miss anything?"

"A lot actually. This man here took out Frieza all on his own." Piccolo filled her in, gesturing over to the young man who was sitting by himself next to a capsule corp machine filled with drinks. The man's eyes widen, gritting his teeth as his whole body tensed up when he saw Ocarin, mainly focusing on the baby Namekian in her arms. So did everyone else when they noticed the baby as well. Piccolo's eyes widen a little and his mouth dropped in shock. The baby immediately saw him and smiled reaching out to him. "Ba Ba!" Ocarin blinked in shock as well while Piccolo didn't move from his spot.

"Oh wow! I didn't know you had a baby Ocarin! Piccolo!" Gohan shouted.

"I don't!" Piccolo growled.

Ocarin shook her head. "I found him a little ways off from here. I figured he might have gotten separated from the Namekians when they left Earth."

"Aw! Look at the little baby Namekian!" Bulma cooed.

"I didn't know that there is such a thing as baby Namekians." Gohan murmured.

"That's because there aren't." Piccolo spoke before he turned to young man, getting even more suspicious.

"Then how do you explain him?" Ocarin asked Piccolo, lifting the baby up.

"I don't!" Piccolo shouted at her before looking back at the man.

"Who are you?" Piccolo demanded.

"I'll explain when Goku gets here. I promise. Just be patient a little longer." He spoke. Vegeta growled, growing more impatient.

"How long are we supposed to wait for him!? I bet he's not even coming! You're up to something!" He shouted at the man. Suddenly, Gohan's eyes widen then Krillin's and Tien's and Yamcha's, along with Piccolo and Ocarin's, sensing a familiar energy hurling fast towards Earth almost reaching the atmosphere.

"It's my dad!" Gohan cried out. "He made it back!"

A round space pod flew above everyone's head and crashed into the ground, exactly where the mysterious man had told them where Goku would be. The door to the pod flipped open and Goku smiled and waved, stepping out, dressed in a strange alien clothes.

"Hey guys?" Goku shouted, confused to see everyone as if they were expecting him. Everyone cheered, happy to see him back.

"How did you guys know that I was coming?"
