Chapter 8 - The Rescue Has Arrived

In one of the galaxies of this universe, in the middle of the vacuum of space, a large ship was moving.

Inside this ship, several beings of different races were spread out in every corner. In a large control room, several technological equipments were connected.

There were five aliens in that room, all focused on one of the devices, but they still didn't stop talking to each other.

"Lord Frieza has dozens of private planets, but we still spend most of our time traveling through space, I don't understand this" One with light blue skin said.

Another one with a strange appearance replied "I don't understand this kind of behavior either, if I were him, I would enjoy myself on a nice planet, and have a carefree life"

A third chimed in "You guys should be grateful for Lord Frieza's lifestyle, or most of us would end up stuck on some planet doing the same job. I highly doubt he'd keep us with him, then we'd be in a much worse situation"

Suddenly, an alert sound rang out from one of the computers, interrupting their conversation.

"What's wrong this time? I've never heard that warning, is it something new?"

With a surprised expression, the light blue-skinned man shook his head "On the contrary, this was something rare in the past, but I Honestly never thought it would happen again"

Another of them also looked at the screen with the flashing warning and made a surprised expression "The Saiyans' planet has already been destroyed for more than 8 years, I didn't expect more of those suicide missions of theirs to work out"

"The Saiyans?! So there are more of them besides that small squad?"

"In theory, there may still be some who were sent to other planets, but the chance of them being alive is decreasing more and more... It is already surprising that one of them gave signs of life and seems to have managed to conquer a planet"

One of them stood in front of the screen with the warning, then he began to press several buttons on that computer, soon new information appeared in its place "The message came from a planet in the Kelav galaxy, we are not very far away"

Another of them quickly used the ship's communicator "Lord Dodoria, there is a message coming from a planet in Kelav, it seems that one of the babies sent by the Saiyans has completed the mission to conquer the planet. What should we do?"

...

In the main room of the large spaceship, a pink-skinned alien with a chubby body and several spikes spread across its body makes a surprised expression "What? Are you sure about that?!"

He had the scouter stuck to his face, and it felt like someone was talking to him through it.

"What's wrong, Dodoria?" Another alien, this one with a more pleasant appearance, quite similar to an Earthling, with androgynous characteristics, but with light cyan skin color "Did something happen?"

Between the two, there was another alien, This one was smaller than the other two, and had a pair of pointed horns, its skin was predominantly white, but its arms, legs and tail had pink parts, and part of its head was purple.

This minor was sitting in a pompous manner, while letting out a light laugh "Soldier Zarbon, don't be impatient, Dodoria will soon tell us everything"

Feeling like he was being scolded, that alien swallowed hard, while adjusting a strand of his green hair, which escaped from the ponytail "Lord Frieza is right, I was just curious and didn't wait"

Just a second later, Dodoria, that pink-skinned alien, turned to the smallest one and with a respectful tone said "Lord Frieza, it seems that one of those babies that the Saiyans sent to distant planets, managed to conquer the planet in question"

Widening his eyes, but without losing his smile, Frieza said "Oh, what a wonderful surprise, it seems we're going to have another soldier for my empire"

Zarbon raised his eyebrows "Another surviving Saiyan, I feel like this will make them even more arrogant, but it will also increase their efficiency in taking over the planets"

"There's nothing to worry about, soldier Zarbon" Frieza began, smiling cruelly "One or two more of those idiot monkeys won't make any difference. Even if they feel brave, they won't dare do anything stupid. Even when there was an entire race, they would still dance in the palm of my hand"

The two soldiers laughed along with the emperor, and Dodoria soon said "So what should we do? About the planet and that Saiyan"

"I have no idea what kind of planet those idiot monkeys chose, but most of them should be low priority... Send a message to our closest planet, tell them to send a ship there, they can do a planet scan and also look for that hairless monkey" Frieza replied, not seeming to care much about his new planetary acquisition.

...

Weeks after sending the mission completion signal, Radissa was growing more and more anxious, she hadn't received any messages back, so she didn't know if they were coming for her, or if they had ignored her.

Even with these fears, she did not put her training aside, she knew that she was still very far from the strength of the truly powerful beings in this universe, she would not allow herself to become completely arrogant, just because she was strong compared to other races.

In the middle of an afternoon, she finally felt something appear on the planet 'They've arrived!' She thought excitedly.

She had exterminated the powerful beings on this planet, so as soon as several powerful Ki surged into her senses, she knew that they were Frieza's soldiers.

'There are a dozen of them, but none of them seem really strong, they must be foot soldiers... Even if Freeza was an imbecile, he would send at least one stronger one, if his goal was to kill me, then that shouldn't be the case'

'Looks like my training is going to take a break' Radissa tie her hair into a ponytail, using a kind of thin vine 'I better get back to my ship, they must be there looking for me'

For a moment, the girl's black eyes could be seen turning golden, and then she shot off at an extremely high speed. In the time it took her a breath, she had already crossed more than ten kilometers.

...

A ship the size of a house landed on that unknown blue planet, and its door slowly opened, revealing a group of aliens, all wearing the same armor as the Saiyans, they were obviously Freeza's soldiers.

"Lord Freeza sent us to analyze this planet, but our main mission is to find the Saiyan who dominated this place, so we will look for him first" An alien with purple skin and a muscular body said as he walked out of the ship, followed by the others.

Right behind the first, a second alien came, using his scouter he said "If this Saiyan dominated this planet, we just need to go after the only high power besides ours"

Another one smiled and asked "Do you think this Saiyan is strong? From what I know, only the weak were sent as babies to dominate planets while they grew up, and this one must still be young, what would his power be?"

Suddenly that second alien made a confused expression "Is there a problem with this scouter? What the hell is this?"

Confused by his reaction, the others asked him "What's wrong man, any problems finding the Saiyan?"

"I think my scouter has a problem, it showed a reading of over 15,000 PL for a moment" He replied.

Everyone was shocked "15,000 PL?! There's no way there could be someone so powerful on this insignificant planet"

The soldier who was in front of everyone else clicked on his own scouter, then gave a soft nod "It really must have been a malfunction, the highest reading here is 1,130 PL. It must be our Saiyan friend, he's heading our way"

"It really must have been a scouter error, not even the late King of the Saiyans was that strong" One of them commented laughing.

"Anyway, it looks like he's coming our way, he must have noticed our arrival and is coming, this saves us time looking for him" Their leader said, standing still, while following Radissa's approach on the scouter.

"This must be an adult Saiyan, right?" One of them questioned.

"He could be any age above 9, maybe Vegeta's age, or maybe older, there's no way to be sure" Another replied.

"But this Vegeta is 14 years old and is not yet an adult Saiyan, he has not yet reached his full potential. On the other hand, this Saiyan should have been one of the weakest at birth, to have been sent as a baby, but he has a power of 1,130 PL, this is an average power for an adult Saiyan, so he must be an adult" Said an alien very similar to an Earthling, but with an extra pair of eyes.

Some of them looked in surprise towards the one who gave the explanation, and one of them said "Kylean, since when do you know so much about Saiyans? They are basically extinct now"

His four eyes blinked, one pair after another, then he scratched his red hair "Even though they are very few in number, Lord Freeza places a lot of importance on them, so I became curious about them"

"You're right, out of all the attack squads, if we don't consider the Ginyu special forces, the Saiyans should be the most esteemed, and they are only three of them" One of them commented.

"He'll be here in a few moments, let's see if your theory is right, Kylean" The purple-skinned leader said, as he looked up at the blue sky.

Everyone followed suit and looked in the same direction, each with a different expectation.

Suddenly something appeared in the sky, flying towards them and little by little it was possible to see a bit of the Saiyan's appearance, which slowly left everyone surprised.

Landing on the ground, in front of all those aliens, Radissa showed herself to be very different from what everyone expected.

Her appearance was still childish, but her eyes that had never held innocence now seemed to penetrate their souls. Her height was now about 1.40 meters, which made her not seem much shorter than those aliens in front of her.

Her dark-skinned body was now covered in muscles, which didn't take away her femininity, but took away a bit of her childish appearance.

Her furry tail was slowly swaying in a wave-like motion as she looked at that group of aliens in silence 'None of them should have more than 1,500 PL, so my limited power should be enough for them to not treat me as inferior...'

For a moment, Radissa stared at the back of her right hand, where there was something that looked like a pentagram tattoo, with text in an unknown language circling the pentagram.

She took a deep breath 'Alright, time for some acting' Then she looked at the purple alien and said "I thought at least one Saiyan would come to congratulate me on my mission accomplished, those idiots sent me to this shitty planet, but they don't have the decency to come get me?"

The aliens looked at each other, they were still surprised by the Saiyan's appearance, and also by his personality, but mainly wondering how they should break the news, that the Saiyans' planet was destroyed and only three others of their race remained.

"The truth is that Planet Vegeta no longer exists, it was destroyed after being hit by a giant meteor. Besides you, there are only a few Saiyans left, and they are on a mission on a very distant planet, so none of them could come get you" Their leader quickly explained.

"The planet was destroyed by a meteor? What the hell were all the warriors and scientists doing at that moment, sleeping?!" Radissa glared at the purple alien.

'How could anyone swallow that horrible excuse? With Earth's technology, they could have figured out that something like this was going to happen decades before it happened, and all it took was a random Saiyan to deal with a meteor'

'Was that intentional? Does Freeza want to humiliate the surviving Saiyans by making his lie obvious? Or is he simply too stupid to come up with a better excuse?' Radissa was confused.

"What a bunch of incompetents! Whatever, if they were killed in such a shameful way, I don't feel sorry for them, at least dead they won't trample on the pride of our race" She said in a forced performance, but it seemed very convincing to the bunch of aliens who didn't even know her.
