     “ AH! “ The Saiyan woke up hot and sweaty with frantic, quickly shifting his legs from the bed and peering below at his feet. Then looking around the barely lit room, the elite team asleep and off into dreamland. Dragging his feet across the room and opening the door to their dorm with his forearm, the door swinging behind him and coming to a shut. Cracking his neck as he made his way through the narrow corridor, the walls were bare and made of cold slabs of stone. Torches lit every couple of feet, the air was hot and didn’t have much moisture. Making his way down a flight of stairs, where he would end up at an exit of the base. The ruby sky was partly cloudy, and the two suns shined brightly in the sky. Bardock made his way to the back of the military base, moving at a slow pace. The spiky haired saiyan wore a navy blue spandex sleeveless shirt, and pants of the same material. Wearing his navy blue saiyan boots with the green tips, walking on a dirt trail surrounded with high green grass.

     After a a few hundred yards the trail will end to the edge of a cliff, Bardock sitting on the edge of it with his legs dangling free. Resting his elbows upon his thighs, looking down at the barren wasteland below. The humid air brushing against his skin, blowing his hair back in different directions. “ Your thinking about him again aren’t you? “ A female voice was heard directly behind him, quickly turning around in relief to see Fasha. “ Yes...The thought of him is even in my dreams. I just hope that he’s okay is all… “ “ I promise he’s okay, if he’s anything like his father then there would be nothing he couldn’t overcome. “ Bardock slightly smiled but it quickly vanished as his mind began to be clouded with negative thoughts.

     “ Thanks Fasha. “ He said low, giving her a look of approval as he stood up. “ How’d you know I was out here by the way? “ Bardock said in confusion. Fasha chuckled under her breath, turning around away from him. “ I didn’t… You're not the only one with problems, the cliff is a great place to think. “ He never knew Fasha had problems outside the base, she didn’t speak of the life she had outside the camp too much. “ We should walk back to camp before the others wake up. “ Right. “ He said as they both walked off beside each other down the trail, once they entered the base everyone was already awaken. The halls crowded with other saiyans, some to break fast and others off to train. Most of them wore the typical saiyan armor which was white, only the higher ranks had different colors and shoulder pieces.

     Once Bardock entered his room with the others just awakening and removing themselves from their bunkers. The spiky haired saiyan slipped on his own saiyan armor that was navy blue and had a green belly plate, with green straps that went over his bulky shoulders. Putting on his red velvet weighted wrist bands, and weighted leg warmers. Deciding to skip breakfast and head straight to the training room. Making his way down the halls and turning corners, bumping into one of the higher ups and nearly knocking him down. “ Watch where you're going low-class skum, stand up at once! “ Bardock quickly recovered himself and stood up in saluting position, “ My apologies sir! “ The general ranked saiyan wore red saiyan armor, with gold medals attached to the chest. It had only one golden shoulder piece, and looked rather luxurious. The general gave him a look of distaste, quickly fading into smile. “ You know what weakling? I have a job for you… “

     “ A job huh? “ Bardock said with a grin on his face, looking into the piercing black eyes of the Saiyan general. His hair spiked straight up, and was starting to become gray as he was an elder. General Zod was known all around for his great power, and long history in the Planet Trade Organization. The general crossed his arms behind his back and looked at Bardock with uncertainty. “ We need you to test a new machine of ours, it helps our soldiers deal with the stress of war. Helping them be more mentally stable during combat, getting them to push through their greatest fears. You must be mentally stable, and be able to push through it as far as you can handle. “ The low-class saiyan scratched his head while raising a brow, “ Are you sure it’s safe? What if I never wake up? “ Bardock said in fear. Zod motioned his head towards a hall, walking slowly through the lit hall. Bardock followed him without question, heading towards a sliding glass door that most likely led to some kind of laboratory.

     “ Our best technicians and scientist have been working on this project for quite some time now, as you can see we’ve ran many various test on the new machine. “ He said as they both walked through the automated doors, opening from bottom to top and closing behind them. Hearing the sound of the door releasing pressure, entering a room with various buttons that glowed different colors. Beeping noises and scientist chatting to each other filled the room. The machine had a glass door, and was some kind of chamber. Many wires were coming from the machine, and were connected to several computers being controlled by the saiyans in white lab coats. “ Dr. Avric I’ve found someone willing to test the machine, explain to him what it does and how it works. “ Zod said before exiting the lab, “ As you wish sir. “ A lizard like being came up to bardock holding a clipboard. His skin was purple, and had large green snake like eyes.

     It was his first time seeing a species of this race, it wasn’t often he seen a non-saiyan inside base. “ This is the ‘Resilience Machine’, built to take you through various stages of scenarios. The scenarios aren’t pre-setted, they are made from your brains greatest fears and will soon push you too your limits. With every stage you will be placed in a new setting and things will become much harder physically and mentally. “ How exactly is this suppose to help us? “ Bardock said with uncertainty. “ Good question. It’s to help you overcome your greatest worries, and push you to your physical limit. Making you mentally and physically stronger once you come out. “ The dr’s tongue hissed like a snake, as he made his way towards one of the control panels. “ The chamber will create a portal and place you in a new realm, and the only way to exit is to simply die. “ Bardock wasn’t sure how he felt about the dying part, if what the doctor said was true then once he entered the realm he would not be able to turn back. Disliking the feeling of being the higher up’s lab rat.

     " I must do this, this is exactly what I need. Maybe once I’m out I’ll stop having the recurring nightmares. The nightmares of the fate of my planet….and my son. " The spiky haired saiyan walked up to the machine, pushing the opening glowing red button that would release the pressure of the hydraulic chamber door. The glass door slowly descending with light gray smoke filling the ground around his legs. Placing one leg inside and then the other, the chamber was only about 10 feet wide and slightly taller than he was inside. The chamber door then closing and forcing shut, his heart began pacing and sweat beads fell from his forehead down his neck. I’m ready… Bardock said to himself, not quite sure what to expect what was going to happen to him. After a minute the purple reptilian pushed a lever down with both hands, the machine making a loud buzzing static noise. A dark void filling the chamber and vanishing with a loud sonic boom, leaving the chamber empty. Sending him to a time warp, giving him a feeling of floating in space. Seeing light at the end of the tunnel and awaking moments later," Here we go… "

     "Huh?" The spiky haired saiyan said groggily, he was laying on the dirt ground face first. Quickly he turned around and stood up, hearing the sounds of battle around him. Many saiyan troops ran past him in a hurry, all of them going to one location. Like a large rock in a river they all went around him, thousands of saiyans with weaponry and some giving battle commands. The smell of burnt explosives and death lingered in the air. With the quick movement of his hand he grabbed the collar of one of the soldiers and lifted him in the air, demanding to know whats going on. "Tell me soldier, what exactly is going on here?" The troop attempted to break free with no avail, until he saw the Saiyan crescent on Bardocks light green armor. This showed he was of high rank in of the Planet Trade Organization. "Frost's army is here and they are attempting to take over our planet. Things aren't looking so good out there from what I hear sir..."

     Bardock let loose his grip and sent the recruit falling on his behind, he quickly got up and was on his way with the others. "How did I end up here? Why can't I remember coming here? Was I knocked out of conscious?" So many questions ran through his head, but this war was his main objective for now. Without any more thought he took off into the sky with a high leap into the air, taking off like a fighter jet. Down below him were many dead bodies and craters in the vegetan soil from explosions. "There's so much destruction, who could have caused this much damage?" Bardock though out loud in confusion, he was still a bit dazed from when he first awoke. Up ahead were a group of saiyan troops and they were being over powered by one distant changeling. A burst of lazers emitted from his finger at once and pierced through one of them as he attempted to retreat.

     With haste Bardock quickly landed in front of him with the click of his heel, pressing his scouter for information. "A power level of 5,000 huh? Not bad..." The changeling had light blue skin that shined in the suns rays, and blue jeweled spikes ran across his tail. A quite large frostling he was, being twice Bardock size in comparison. "Now now low-class, a saiyan has no place judging the power of the likes of mine. Lord Frost is on the verge of taking over this pitiful planet, Your commander Titan is already dead he-he." The frostling said with a mimicking laugh, then pointing his long black finger nail directly at him. "No way...You must be bluffing! Titan can't be dead, he's the strongest fighter on the planet." Bardock said reassuring himself, tightening his fist in anger. The point of his finger flashed red and three random burst of lazers were sent into his direction.

     In no time the beams pounced against Bardocks invisible barrier made of pure energy, leaving the frost soldier in awe. The spiky haired saiyan exploded in a light red aura and sent dust and other environmental elements around him flying away from his being. "Surrender now or die." He said simply and to the point, with no response Bardock quickly dashed towards him. Attempting to elbow him in the gut, but was met with the frostlings forearm. Causing Bardock to slide back, digging his feet into the dirt and coming to a abrupt stop. With that he opened his palm in front of him, forming a large blue ball of Ki energy and hurled it towards him. Exploding upon impact and causing a great sonic boom rippling across the field. A smoke screen covered the whole area, leaving them blind and no idea of their surroundings. Moments later his scouter beeped, alerting him a power level was nearing him. The saiyan troop quickly took off into the sky and peered at the smoke below and awaited for him to emerge. "If only I knew were my squad mates were, we'd easily be able to get through these idiots."

     "Bardock....Commander Bardock are you there?" A voice buzzed through the earpiece of his scouter, he placed his hand on the response button on the scouter as he peered below for the Icer soldier. "Bardock reporting in. I've been MIA during this battle. Can I get some intel?" Bardock said as he slowly descended to the ground, the smoke was now cleared and he was still nowhere to be found."Lord Titan is dead and the Icers are taking over, there's not many of us left sir. We must regroup and leave the planet at once before we're all exterminated." With that information the spiky haired saiyan dropped to his knees in disbelief, his hands fell to the ground as tears began to fall off his cheeks onto the dirt.

     "No way..He can't be dead...This must be a dream, or a nightmare for that matter." The saiyan then slowly rose back up onto his feet and just remembered the Icer whom escaped. The booms of the distant wars began to calm down as more saiyans were being killed off. Saiyan pods could be seen leaving the planet and off into space, and also many Icer ships could be seen cruising the ruby sky."This can't be it for the saiyan race..."He said under his breath, then being interrupted from a voice from behind."Still don't believe me saiyan? I told you it's over, bow down and vow to serve under Lord Frost or be sent to the other world with the rest of the monkeys."

     "You....you bastard!" Bardock yelled out loud before exploding in a red and yellow aura, dashing towards him with anger. Hard leg sweeping him and knocking him onto his back, thus kicking him into the air with the thrust of his foot. Sending the Icer flying into the air and off into the distance, seeing him thud against the hard rocky ground before coming to a stop. "I better leave now, there's probably someone out there that really needs me." Just as he was going to take off into the air he spotted a whole army full of Icers making their way towards his direction."Dammit! He alerted his men, there's no way I'd be able to take them on by myself."

     Before he could evade the scene a barrage of beams came shooting at him at almost the speed of light. Exploding upon impact near him, causing black smokey craters in the ground around him. Another barrage of red beams came at him, this time penetrating his shoulder and leg. Blood came spilling out the holes, and caused him to collapse to the ground. Slowly beginning to lose consciousness, a white void beginning to take over his vision. He reached into the sky for help as the Icers began to look down at him with red piercing eyes, watching him drift off into sleep at the spot. The thought of never seeing his son Kakarot now came to mind, and not being able to ever see his loved squad mates ever again. The machine was now placing him in a new scenario, all without Bardock acknowledge.

     The saiyan warrior could feel he was conscious, but could not move his body nor see anything. Trying his best to break free from what he though was just a dream, feeling his body floating through a empty void and was awoken seconds later abruptly. Lifting himself up from the place he once laid, seeing nothing but total darkness. "What?Where am I? Who's there?!" Bardock questioningly commanded as he quickly shifted his head side to side, still seeing nothing but the dark emptiness. Moments later the lights were cut on all at once nearly blinding him. Hearing the light generators rev up, and a speaker up ahead making a sorta static sound. Once his eyes were open all he could see was white, and mirrors that covered the whole ceiling. The room was about the size of a football room, and Bardock was placed directly in the middle.

     The saiyan general attempted to move forward but then noticed chains made of some sorta energy clasped around his ankles, hindering him from moving. "Damn you! Unchain me now!" Bardock said as he attempted to break free with the kick of his leg, with no avail he clenched his fist and teeth in anger. "Try all you want Saiyan, but those chains are made of your own Ki energy. As long as your still alive they will never be broken." The voice came from a speaker up ahead, echoing across the whole room. He was most likely watching him from behind the mirrors, giving him an idea. Bardock engulfed his hand in a blue aura, preparing a energy blast and launching it at the mirrors. Before he could launch the blast it suddenly diminished into thin air, thus seeing the chains get even thicker. "No way?!" Bardock screamed in disbelief and falling to his knees.

     "Now that you understand your situation I'm going to tell you about the little game we're going to play he-he. Out from the door across the room will be another fighter that will appear, you must fight him to the death or both be killed in the process...Now shall we begin? " Without any warning the door opened across the blank room, seeing nothing emerge from the doors. All until moments later a reptilian like warrior came out, them both staring at each other from across the room. "Curses! Release me now Icer!" He screamed, he was also chained up with the same device as Bardock. "Did you say Icer?! But how!?" The saiyan trooper questioned in deep confusion, then remembering being taking over by the Icer army before losing conscious. "That's correct saiyan, we even healed your wounds...Just for our little game! Hahahaha!" The unknown Icer laughed hysterically from above. "So who are you?" Bardock said while looking at the green warrior from a distance.

     Bardock questioned the other warrior, the reptilian lowered his head and a tear fell from his cheek as if he made him remember a bad memory. "My name is Kan-el, I lived on planet Vegeta before it was taken over by the Icers. They slaughtered my entire family in front of me, and I fought as long as I could before I was over come with those insects!" Kan-el screamed in anger, then weeping once again for his loses. Kan-el wore a green large shirt, and had green like reptile skin with scales. Also wearing a metal belt that was bounded to leather straps that went around his shoulders and to his back. He had gills on his cheeks, showing that he could most likely breath under water. "Enough blabbering you two! Now fight! Fight! Fight!" The Icer commanded them at once, shocking them through their chains and sending them to flail on the ground. Them both slowly getting up and looking at each other, Bardock not knowing if he was going to obey commands or join forces with him.

      "I'm sorry..." Kan-el said before taking off, his chains extending once he took flight. "Huh?!" Bardock said before being punched to the ground, catching him off guard. Pouncing off against the white wall and landing on the breast plate of his armor, quickly standing back up and rubbing his cheek in pain. "Looks like it's do or die now I guess..." The saiyan said as he exploded into a blue aura, thrusting forward and elbowing him backwards. Sending him flying across the room, landing with a skidding thud against the ground. Bardock then hurled a Ki ball towards him, his body lighting the whole room in a bright blue. Before it could make impact the reptilian like warrior quickly got up and flew away from the scene. It exploding on spot and revealing the energy barrier for a few seconds that protected the mirror and walls before disappearing again.

     Dark thick smoke began to fill the white luminescent room, causing him to completely lose his sight. A buzzing noise could be heard behind the saiyan, turning around to see a vent opening automatically. The smoke began to pour into the vent, sucking it out until the room was completely clear. In front of him was Kan-El, he was huffing heavily and on his knees while looking up upon Bardock. His gills were spreading open simultaneously, begging for air that they did not receive. “As you can see Bardock...I’m not exactly a mammal. They took off my nitrogen respirator that my people need in order to live when I was thrown in this pit.” Kan-El said while holding his chest in pain, Bardock then running after him and looking up at the area where he knew they were watching him.

     “This fight isn't fair anymore. I’m done!” The saiyan general yelled with a sickening look on his face. “Kill him now saiyan, or both die!” The Icer from above commanded, shocking him once again. This time much stronger than before, causing him to fall to one knee. Smoke rose from his body and his raven hair now much more frizzy than before. “I...I refuse!” Bardock said as he slowly got up once again, feeling hopeless and his anger rising. A yellow aura began to slowly flicker around the lining of his entire body, grinding his teeth with madness and darting his eyes at the window above. “You will pay for this! I promise Icer!” The saiyan said as he clenched his fist tightly.

     “That's funny, does the monkey want to be reprimanded again?” The Icer said before sending a full out shock upon the saiyan. This time not phasing him one bit, actually managing to walk slowly closer to the window. Kan-El was now wheezing and on his back, trying his best to stay awake and not slip into unconsciousness. Before the Icer could send another shock from the chains he was attached to, Bardock exploded into a bright yellow sheen. Now having yellow bright spiky hair, and blue piercing eyes. A yellow aura fiercely flickering around his body, lighting up the whole room and blinding anyone who was near. The sudden emerge of energy causing a dent below him.

     “You think just because you changed the color of you hair you will be able to escape my little games?!” Bardock did not reply, but simply gave him a happy smirk. “You've awoken the legend inside me. You should be afraid Icer...Very afraid.” The golden saiyan said calmly as he ripped the chains from his wrist with the thrust of his arms, then lifting up two fingers at the shielded window. Sending a shock-wave of yellow ki towards it and causing it to explode with great impact, the window and wall in front of him collapsing in a fiery mess. He could no longer sense his energy anymore, thus looking out the giant hole in the wall with ease. Turning around to see Kan-El passed out on the ground. “Oh no!” Bardock screamed as he had forgotten about the reptilian fighter.

     Without hesitation Bardock swooped his lifeless body from the ground, his legs dangling from his back. As he soared through the air he could sense several power-levels catching up to him quickly, suppressing his Ki in a hurry and descending in between two canyons. “These people don’t give up do they?” His boots landing in a thick muddy soil, making his way through the tall grass. Placing Kan-El’s body on a large boulder, then looking into the sky seeing the Icer men fly like fighter jets over past them. In anger and confusion Bardock slammed the side of his fist into the side of the canyon, feeling it shake a bit from his immense strength. “Why can’t I remember anything? Why is this all happening? Where even the hell am ?!” The saiyan began to question himself, on the edge of breaking down.

     It had felt as if he had been through hell and back, and all the events were starting to take an emotional toll on him. Feeling as if he were in a non-stop nightmare of some sorts, almost feeling himself on the brink of tears. Before a tear could fall from his eye his scouter buzzed, alerting him with a sweet voice. “Bardock...Bardock are you there?” Fashas voice buzzed through the earpiece, instantly giving him a feeling of hope. Quickly he holded down the reply button on his scouter, seeing his fingernails thick with mud. “Yes I’m here. Fasha I need intel on what’s going on out there at base. I’ve been captured by the Icers but I managed to escape, I can’t even surely tell you where I am at.” The golden haired warrior said as he moved through the thick sludge.

     ”It’s nice to hear your voice again Bardock. It’s been awhile since I’ve heard anyones voice, I’ve been on the run for awhile now. Tora, Bargos, all of them….are dead.” With that he came to a halt, not quite believing what he just heard. “They all rushed our base at night, killing everyone in sight. If only you didn’t sneak out Bardock, you could have saved them...Saved them all.” The saiyan generals eyes shot open, not remembering at all sneaking out. “I didn’t sneak out Fasha! You must believe me, you know me better than that!” He yelled into the scouter, feeling the rage inside of him pent up. “Yes I know, that’s why I’ve been attempting to radio you for the past days,” Fasha said. “Those sneaky bastards must of had a radio disrupter in the base they had me chained up in.”

     The saiyan said while tightening his fist up into a ball, then slowly ascending on top of the canyon when he no longer could feel power levels near him. Booms of battle could be heard all throughout the land, the saiyans losing their home planet that day. “Fasha? Fasha?! *click* Fuck!” The saiyan gave up and setted off once again into the sky. “I need to get out of this planet quickly.” He said to himself as he went through a thick cloud, feeling the mist brush against his shoulders. “Scouter I need directions to Base,” the scouter bleeped and began to search for the coordinates. ”Searching…..Searching...FOUND….Coordinates: B126vlx.” With that information found he flew to the west, going at neck breaking speeds. Feeling his body cut through the air like a knife, making great distance fast.
