Chapter 255 - Baby - Hirudegarn Versus Kron, Mira and Cumber.

Cumber was out of the fight, for now so I immediately engaged with Hirudegarn, now hosting Baby inside and seen the difference between Hirudegarn and a Baby-controlled Hirudegarn. Mira growled in tense focus, fighting in a bulked-up form but was on the receiving end very much more than inflicting damage though with Baby in the control seat now, Hirudegarn/Baby made to attack me primarily, flicking Mira away as if he wasn't perceived as a threat.

 

"How… annoying, what is this feeling. I'll destroy you." Mira promised, his tone dark, barely able to contain his anger in being seen as weak, he attacked as recklessly as he usually did, more than earning my ire as his fighting stance more than once had gotten in the way.

 

"Enough, how dare you two freaks dare to harm me, for that… I shall promise my undying anger! Hirudegarn here is more than enough to bring the two of you to your knees, And you… smell like a Saiyan, so die like the rest of them! Once you two are gone, I'll kill the rest of you and even your precious planet Earth shall join you all, harboring the ilk of your race-"

 

"-You talk too much… disgusting-" Mira began, attacking after flickering to engage in melee when Hirudegarn/Baby, now silenced, retaliated with excessive force in rage. Reentering the bout, I headbutted the cranium of Hirudegarn, launching Ki-infused blow after blow, now attacking at the hard carapace arms held in defensive formation, the last hit smashing him into the rock and penetrating deeply into the exposed bedrock. Nearby Glass and Sand intermixed, filling into the pit that Hirudegarn/Baby was within, Mira went to engage when I grabbed his shoulder and held him there, his glare at me as he shook off my hand was quite defiant. I felt the need to put him in his place, as anger seethed over my emotions though I turned to the pit, the planet begun to shake, as wisps of red, black and pink wafted out of the large hole pit in the earth of this planet.

 

"Don't touch me Saiyan."

 

"Then don't get in my way weakling, I am the primary opponent of this body snatcher. Keep out of the way and engage whenever I'm not making my move. Crippling you to get to him isn't something I won't do should you continue to get in the way." I replied, the planet begun to shake with a large tornado of glass, Sand and rubble begun to form all around the large pit. Towa flickered into position nearby, her staff held in front of me, she smiled not so meekly, instead with some amusement within those demonic eyes, her energy boost to me had ended in a erupt fashion.

 

"Easy there Kron, my ability to boost your power has a secondary effect upon you it seems… you would do well in the demon realm I would imagine-"

 

"-And you, you're boost is going to be needed soon. So shut up and keep at a distance. Should Baby get you under his control, he will beat me and I will either be enslaved or killed. I don't fear death… not anymore, though it is those closest to me who will suffer should I lose this. Keep Mira at arm's length unless you want to lose him to Baby-"

 

-The ground cracked from the point where the pit laid, in every direction did the ground open up, as this hole was massively deep in depth, both sand and glass poured like waterfalls into the growing holes opening, as entire formations of rock islands begun to raise up into the air all around and as far as the eye can see.

 

(Tien-POV)

 

'King Kai, I need you to send me the coordinates to where Kron has taken Baby. I need to be there, a few others have decided the same as me. We need to be there encase Kron is taken over." Tien thought silently, eyeing Raditz, Gohan, Dabura, Krillin, Chiaotzu and Pyrrha.

 

Tien awaited the answer for a few seconds, now hearing the reply within his mind, that of the raspy, coarse voice of King Kai replying telepathically.

 

"Hmm? I'm watching that bout now… Make sure to bring Senzu beans then, though I'm not sure you'll be welcome. Only a few of you had been capable of halting that beam that took over your hearts after all- Ah, Dabura and Chiaotzu are coming with… I shall then assist you. They should be there to make sure you all don't get in over your heads against this creature Baby… Standby Tien.' Tien nodded wordlessly, knowing that King Kai wouldn't acknowledge that nod, though he did it in both respect to the guy who has been a supporter of their planet and to the others, who now knew that Tien succeeded in getting King Kai's attention.

 

Tien was going to head on home to Yang and Brock, plus the new child he and Yang were having, but decided to instead help with the fight. Baby was a trickster though, so remaining vigilant within the fight instead of being cocky because of their numbers was the way to go.

 

"Man, Tien… are you sure we should go off and get in the way- I mean… look, I want to help as much as the next guy but-"

 

"-Ah shut it you bald weakling-" Raditz huffed, as Gohan looked towards his uncle disapprovingly, Raditz though didn't seem to mind the look sent by him, while Krillin scowled back.

 

"-Hey man, we've already all been taken over before by the guy, will just get in the way!" Krillin was then interrupted once more, as Raditz added with a sneer.

 

"We're not going to let Kron fight along once more, that guy has been getting 'way' too comfortable just going off and fighting by his lonesome." Raditz 'humphed', arms folded.

 

"I don't like it neither, plus I know that Towa and Mira has gone over to help him and… I'm still not sure that Towa has 'noble' intentions with my husband as of yet. So no, I'd much rather be in the thick of it and support Kron from his side, my blade is always poised towards his enemies, who are my enemies… Baby needs to be destroyed. That is the bottom line. Chiaotzu and Dabura, you're going to be our support, to make sure we're not afflicted by Baby's mind-altering technique, the rest of us should be ready to surrender our energy to Kron, so his last attack upon that freak is the one that finishes him off." Pyrrha then glanced around, narrowing her gaze at each of the 'troublemakers' of the group, namely just Raditz and Dabura… as if goading them to defy her. Dabura only smirked, huffing with a quite chuckle, Tien noted that Raditz only scowled but kept quiet. Tien smirked as he heard Raditz mutter about 'Kron's woman are annoying' to himself, though loud enough for Tien's enhanced hearing to pick it up.

 

"It's decided then. So be quiet, I'm awaiting King Kai's assistance so each of you just take a hold of the nearest to you. I'll be using 'Instant Transmission soon enough." Tien glanced to them all, then to the small bag of Senzu beans they still had, clenching the bag in his hand and hoping that they wouldn't need them, for they needed some for Frieza and Moro.

 

'Heh, Kron has defeated Baby… though within that Saiyan called Cumber. Baby has once more decided to take over the one called Hirudegarn, though this time it is for good, for that creature has begun an irregular transformation or fusion within the two of them… I am sure that this new being is going to be capable of both techniques of the two, including that 'takeover technique' Baby has used before, so assume the two of them are still highly dangerous, more so as one. Also note Tien, I'll tell Raven afterwards, that Frieza and Moro, along with an entire invasion force of Frieza's empire is going to land… in six hours upon earth, not much time to prepare. I shall… try to redouble my efforts to 'try' and get Lord Whis to allow Goku, Vegeta and Piccolo to return though, do not expect it' Tien grimaced, for that was bad news for those three not able to come and back them up, though Tien was pretty confident that those with him plus Kron could defend the earth from Frieza and whoever Moro is, Baby and that weird bug guy need to be finished off right now.

 

"Right then, let's get moving and remember, hold on to me." Tien glanced at the group, as Krillin, Gohan, Chiaotzu and Pyrrha were already ready and held one another's shoulder, with Pyrrha at the back of the line, Raditz and Dabura were last to.

 

They all reappeared where Tien took them, feeling via King Kai's assistance, the essence of Kron, taking them to a desert planet and the scorching heat was the first thing they felt upon reappearing, that and the shock waves of the battle playing out right in front of them. Bombarding within the sky, multiple echos of bombarding shock waves flickered intensely in the sky in front of them. Tien turned to the others, noting Gohan's transformation into 'Super Saiyan Primal', seeing the fierce gaze of Pyrrha as her Ki blazed a red color. Dabura and Raditz were also quite serious looking, and from their gazes, about to jump right into it then and there. Krillin and Chiaotzu were calmly gazing at the onslaught in front of them, every one of them like Tien held an intense focus to keep up with the speed of Kron and his opponent Baby, within that giant bug monster.

 

Finally, Raditz spoke with a grin, bending down within his fighting stance, about to take off.

 

"Like no time like now but to go for it! I shan't be standing here as an observer as this battle take's place within my sight!" Raditz took off afterwards, transforming mid-flight into 'Super Saiyan Primal' and taking off for the battlefield, as Dabura glanced towards them all.

 

"The rash idiot is right." Dabura turned to Chiaotzu and added.

 

"We've got preparations to make, should we be capable of surviving the coming bout. You and I shall keep the others from taking those blasts."

 

"Right! Tien, I'll hold the rest of the Senzu beans then. Keep to the back and be support!"

 

"Right! Pyrrha, Krillin, Gohan! Also Chiaotzu, that other Saiyan should be healed. Give him one of the beans… make it half a bean, encase he is still under Baby's influence." They responded all together, with Pyrrha only nodding, the only one equipped with her sword, her shield turned to a small bracelet.

 

(Pyrrha Nikos-POV)

 

She caught up with Raditz and then headed directly into the storm that was the battle her Kron was fighting with that monster Baby. She swept into the intense shock waves from Kron's and Baby's clash, taking her blade down upon the back of the bug, burying it deep into his back, then pushing him via a energy-enforced kick into Kron's awaiting right hook. Their eyes met through the seconds maneuver on her part, she shouted at last, her Ki already pulsing to her hands.

 

"... … 'Royal Spear'-" her attempt was cut off when Baby flickered in front of her, bent down and bringing his large bulked, armored hands down from up high upon her, the blow hammered her downwards through the ground, through glass and sand and rock.

 

(Raditz-POV)

 

He would have chuckled at that red-heads attempt if Kron wasn't within hearing range, instead he blitzed into view and begun engaging Baby in a heated melee exchange, each thrust Raditz dealt he did with every ounce he had, Raditz shouted as energy gathered.

 

"'Blitz Breaker' Keep you're eye on the red colored Saiyan bastard!" he shoulder tackled into Baby, hitting against his armored form, though instead of inflicting any sort of damage, Raditz 'Blitz Breaker' melee technique only knocked Baby backwards a way, as Kron followed up nearby and engaged Baby in melee. Raditz watched them brawl, each second another wave of air sent out from their range, hitting against and pushing Raditz back with wave after wave. Pyrrha blasted upwards, as Tien joined in them now, charging forwards.

 

"All together, Raditz, Pyrrha!" Tien shouted, as Krillin flickered into view, shouting.'

 

"Kron, Guys! Eyes!!' Solar Flare'!!" Raditz wasn't about to be blinded by that nefarious technique, so he followed begrudgingly the little bald bastards order, his ears hearing the squeaking, metallic sound of Baby's voice screeching in place.

 

"Little Vermin! You d-dare do this to- haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh!!" Baby, blinded, begun to shout as his Ki begun to pulse all around him, rolling off in intense waves mirroring the heatwaves of this hot climate, Kron had roughly ripped Pyrrha's sword from Baby's body, tearing a wing off in the process though that had already begun to heal at a fast rate, Kron then growled out while flickering right next to Pyrrha and holding her to him suddenly, checking over her for any wounds and passing her sword off to her.

 

"Get out of my way… You as well, Pyrrha. Get ready with 'Aura Sphere' should you know it too. I don't think Krillin knows it, so everyone else should leave… now. Take Cumber off-world-" As he spoke, it was then that Cumber flew right for them, Kron in particular and glared at him, as the planet begun to shake at an increased pace, as lava begun to pour out of some of the large pits littering the rocky and desert landscape.

 

"Weaklings should stay out of my way." Cumber sneered towards Raditz, looking down on him, the Saiyan then turned to Kron, adding with a growl.

 

"...You helped me from this rodents influence, I shall help to kill it… The rest of these rats on your side should get back a respectable distance and keep out of the way-" Raditz shouted, mad by the bastard barking off orders to him! A low class warrior hadn't the right to speak to Raditz, an elite class like he was hot shit.

 

"-Y-You dare, punk-" the screeching from Baby continued, his energy rupturing the air around him, as rock and sand and glass begun to rotate around him, intermixing while circling his location. Kron, floating in the air begun to radiate his own power, as Cumber followed suite, the Saiyan who had now Raditz noticed that his strength, the aura of energy swirling around him in a amassed wave colored a deep maroon, flashed with electric sparks now of blue, sparking out from his body and running up and down Kron at random intervals, each spark sounded like a lighting bolt striking.

 

"...Cumber huh. Alright, those who can't breath in space, I bid you leave the planet now. No exceptions, this planet is going to be space dust pretty soon at this rate, otherwise sit back and act as support. I might need of you're energy during the battle so prepare to hand it over encase I or one of those helping me need to launching a last-ditch technique to destroy him. So beat it. Pyrrha, you too. Dabura… You can help, Gohan too. The rest of you, you're too weak." Pyrrha nodded, though instead of leaving immediately she grabbed his head of hair and pulled Kron to face her, her hands held his face as she pulled him into a deep kiss. Cumber didn't even watch, though Raditz heard both Dabura and Krillin chuckle… for different reasons, while Raditz looked on, very much furious with this choice-

"-Raditz, you can help, you're strong enough." Raditz smirked, now grinning from ear to ear.

 

(Tien-POV)

 

'What a kiss ass.' Tien chuckled inwardly, landing nearby to Krillin, Chiaotzu and now Pyrrha who arrived just now, they landed on a long sand dune, far enough but close enough to view the battle. Tien turned to Krillin.

 

"You know that 'Aura Sphere' technique right? It was Yamcha who didn't know it?" Tien asked, not really sure, as Krillin blinked, all four of them keeping in a stance as to stop them from being pushed from the energy been generated.

 

"Uh, no. I do know it. Yamcha does too I think. Wasn't that the why he went out to search for thew black star dragon balls- Ah damn! We've got to recollect them as well! This sucks, man…" Tien heard Pyrrha reply, her sword long gone and shrunk down, gone from sight.

 

"Look at him go, I didn't get the chance to see him fight in a long while besides the training sessions I'd joined in with. This is going to be interesting to observe in person, as I missed the fight he had on that metal, encapsulated planet due to other concerns…"

 

"Yeah, it's intense… Lucky me that I get to watch instead of joining in. M-Man, where is Goku when you need him." Krillin commented, eyes half shut from the strong, continuous gusts that emanated from Baby's power up. Kron, Raditz, Dabura, Gohan and Mira plus that Saiyan Cumber floated in position near to one another but with enough room to spare, their Ki's blazing around them, each as fierce as the next. They were continuously pushed in place, though Cumber and Kron now made their move now, reaching Baby and knocking him around, beginning a brutal melee exchange that even from their position out of the way, they could hear the blows as if they were right next to them. Each blow erupted mightily, rupturing the very air around the three of them, they moved at speed that even Tien had a problem keeping up with.

 

The others, Gohan, Raditz, Dabura and Mira moved in as well, each primed to add to lightning-quick exchange with deadly precision whenever they could pose a strike when Baby's Guard was open, each of their blows had not afflicted much to Baby now within that oversized bug he took control of, though each of them all offered a continuous effect, leaving Baby to hastily defend himself at the expense of being unable to launch a counterattack. A bright glow of pink Ki bubbled into view around Baby then as he continued to be overwhelmed, a orb blipped to a large size, as Baby's voice carried to even their ears this far out, a shield capable of at least pushing those surrounding Baby back from his personal space, he then fired off a all-out Ki blast barrage, the small spheres quickly multiplying and each were capable of devastating explosions, which detonated all around. Some even reached their position, which had Tien and those with him to quickly maneuver to safer positions.

 

"Right! Krillin! I'll take everyone back now, then return on my own. Pyrrha! Kron doesn't want you fighting it seems like, doesn't want you taken over it looks like, so you'll come as well, and I'll be here for support. Now hold on you lot, I need to quickly return. King Kai! Chiaotzu, you stay and make sure them guys don't get hit by those strange beams that Baby uses to take control of someone!"

 

"Right Tien, I'm concentrating still. He won't be able to hit them with my telekinesis!" Chiaotzu's eyes glowed blue, as he constantly monitored the fighting, waiting for Baby to try and take Kron, Raditz, Dabura, Gohan, Cumber or Mira over.

 

'Yeah, Yeah. Ready… … Majin Buu is still on Earth, I'll teleport you to him and that Hercule guy.' Tien then sensed for them, thanks to King Kai's projecting the range increase through his connection, he and the others not fighting returned and Tien flickered to the sky as Krillin called out.

 

"Catch!" Tien turned mid-flight, two fingers held to his forehead as he easily caught the bag that contained the Senzu beans, then via King Kai's help, returned to the desert world, the battle now seen in front of him once more.
