[NARRATOR] Last time on Dragon Ball Z...

Bulma, Krillin, and Gohan set out on a quest

for the Dragon Balls on Planet Namek.

But on the way, they ran into some big trouble... Literally!

Oh no!

Bulma!

[NARRATOR] An in-flight collision should have

spelled doom for the young travelers, but instead

they found themselves mysteriously transported

into the belly of an alien vessel,

where danger lurked at every turn!

[squealing]

[BULMA screaming]

[LITTLE BOY] Don't move!

[GOHAN] Don't hurt her!

Just stay there! I don't wanna get shot!

Easy now, everyone. We're not trying to hurt anybody.

[NARRATOR] Now, our heroes have been surrounded

by what appears to be a well-equipped army of children!

Who will make the first move in this bizarre standoff?

Find out next, on Dragon Ball Z!

[BULMA panting]

[BULMA whimpering]

Ah...!

Huh?

[GOHAN] Please, listen! We can explain.

You must have us confused with someone else.

We're from the planet Earth. We're friendly!

[GIRL wailing]

I don't want to hear your bogus explanations any more!

Hey, guys c'mon now... Wait a minute!

We have nothing against you!

You attacked us so we had to defend ourselves!

You gotta believe me!

Ah, shut up!

[KRILLIN shouting]

[BULMA] Hey! Why don't you two try being quiet for a change?!

You're gonna get us all killed!

Easy now, kids... I'm not trying to hurt anyone.

[KRILLIN] Gohan, let's power up.

Right.

[GOHAN and KRILLIN growling]

[BOYS gasping]

[KRILLIN chuckling]

Uh?

[KRILLIN] Ow! Ow-ow-ow-ow!

Hey! What was that?!

[BOY] Don't move!

Or I'll shoot you... I swear!

Zeshin, why don't you just kill them all right now?!

We know they must be allies with Frieza!

Uh, okay.

You three shouldn't have come here... I'm sorry.

[ALL screaming]

What's happening?!

We're in big trouble, sir!

We just entered a huge asteroid field!

Hey! Keep an eye on those three!

And if they do anything strange,

you have my permission to shoot 'em!

[RADAR GIRL whimpering]

Ahh!

[screaming]

[BULMA] Hey, Krillin!

Quick! Come get me out of this thing!

[KRILLIN] Ready, Gohan?

I'm ready!

[GOKU screaming]

Please! Don't do it!

[screaming continues]

[GOKU screaming]

I haven't stuck you yet!

Oh boy... Goku, please don't tell me

that I'm going to have to start training you

not to fear needles.

[GOKU screaming]

Didn't you hear me before? I haven't even stuck you yet!

Hmph!

What a little baby!

Screaming and crying over a tiny needle!

I can't even remember Gohan whining this much

when he was born.

How pathetic. My own husband can fight in epic battles

to save the world, yet cries over a shot!

[GOKU whining]

Hmph! Goku, you're on your own.

I have more important things I need to do.

[GOKU] ChiChi, wait!

[DOCTOR] Now, I promise... You won't feel a thing!

[GOKU screaming]

[rumbling]

[screaming]

[crying]

[GOHAN] Uhh...

[BULMA] Huh?!

Hey guys! Let's keep moving!

[KRILLIN] But...

We are in the middle of an asteroid field!

No ship can take a direct hit,

especially with those kids behind the controls!

Now, let's go!

But, Bulma, wait! We can't just leave them here like this!

They're scared!

And if we don't get outta here, we'll be dead!

[BULMA screaming]

[GOHAN whimpering]

[screaming]

[BULMA screams]

[GOHAN and KRILLIN grunting]

You guys okay?

Uhh... Uh-huh...

Good!

What's going on in here?!

[explosion, screaming]

Help us!

Just follow me!

I'll take care of it!

Great... Why do they always have to be such heroes?

[BULMA screaming]

Hey! Who in the world is flying this thing?!

Hey! You don't even know what you're doing! Move it!

Who do you think you are?!

I'm a pilot! Which means I DO know what I'm doing.

I think she's a dirty liar, Boon!

[BOON] I know how to fly this ship!

If you want to live,

then you're gonna let me pilot this piece of junk!

Okay, so we've got the fuel indicator,

and controls for the lateral jets...

Where is the speed control?

Look! Either you tell me, or we're all history!

It's the one on the left.

Okay. Got it!

[GIRL screaming]

[GOHAN] Haah!

[screaming continues]

Wow!

I thought we were gone there for a second.

[guns cocking]

Aah!

Nice! I save your lives,

and what do I get in return? Guns in my face!

Yeah, 'cause we still don't trust you!

And how could we?

You and your friends are responsible

for destroying our home!

[BULMA] Look, I think this is all a big mix-up!

So tell me... what friends are you talking about?

Don't pretend you don't know!

We're talking about your homicidal buddy named Frieza!

Frieza?

Bulma!

[BULMA] Krillin, Gohan, tell them.

These kids... They think we know some guy named Frieza.

We don't think, lady! We know who you are!

Just look at how strong your two brothers are!

They think we're brothers!

No way.

Listen, you've got this all wrong.

Those two are not my brothers!

And don't accuse us of being friends with somebody

that we don't even know!

[KRILLIN] Bulma, wait!

I say we throw these liars out of the airlock! Now!

[ZESHIN] I don't think so.

Zeshin?

It's all right, everyone. You can put your weapons down.

Have you lost your mind?!

These three are allies with Frieza!

We have to treat them like a serious threat

and eliminate them!

If they're allies with Frieza,

explain to me why they chose to help us.

They would have killed us just like he killed our parents.

These people actually care about us.

They aren't like Frieza and his men!

They wouldn't attack us

in the middle of the night without warning us!

Get to safety! Leave us behind!

I remember...

Run, Boon!

[remembering] Mother! Father, no!

Hide before they see you!

[screaming]

[evil laughter]

[yelling]

I... think we can trust them.

Boon?

Well, I'm glad you guys believe us now.

I wonder if the people who attacked

with Frieza were Saiyans?

Hey, do you remember if the people that conquered

your planet had tails that came out about this far?

A tail? I didn't see a tail on any of them.

Oh. Well, so much for that brilliant theory, Krillin.

That means there's a group of warriors out there

even more evil than Saiyans.

What kind of a planet did you live on?

I mean before Frieza?

Our planet was successful.

A truly wonderful and peaceful place to live.

Until that terrible night!

When they took our innocence...

[screaming]

[ZESHIN] It was an ambush. We never even saw them coming.

When they arrived they said the planet

now belonged to Frieza

and anyone who didn't name him as ruler would be killed.

Most of the people gave in and professed Frieza as their King,

but the invaders had no intention of allowing us

to live in the first place.

They murdered everyone who came across their path.

Women, children... There was no limit to the carnage.

It was terrible.

It must have been very difficult for you to escape.

The few adults who realized Frieza's true intentions

were able to cover long enough

for their kids to make an escape.

Those that were lucky enough to make it to their ships in time

were eventually destroyed in space.

We only avoided being destroyed

because of our mirrored exterior.

This ship has mirrors on the outside?

That explains why you showed up on radar,

yet we couldn't actually see you with our eyes.

Your people must have brilliant scientific minds

to create such a ship.

So, where in the galaxy are you headed to now?

Anywhere specific?

That's right. There is a planet

that my father used to visit

from time to time for trading purposes.

And I just know that they will be willing

to accept us without question.

Is this planet far?

Yes it is. But we're willing, even if it takes years.

Ha, ha!

[BOTH chuckling]

Well, good luck to all of you.

Thanks, guys. And same to you.

We'll see ya!

[CHILDREN laughing]

Let's go, boys.

We have a lot of time to make up,

thanks to this little detour.

It's okay, Bulma.

It's not like Namek is gonna go anywhere.

Wait a minute...

You three are all trying to get to the planet Namek?

Sure are. You've heard of it?

I think we passed it around 2 or 3 weeks ago.

If you head in the direction of K-5162,

you'll find about a 10 day shortcut to Namek.

A shortcut?

U-Uh-huh.

So head towards K-5162, huh? Thank you! Let's go!

[GOHAN chuckling]

Ah! If you take the shortcut, don't forget--

[BOON] That was an interesting visit.

Huh, Zeshin?

They turned out to be nice people after all.

Yeah.

Well... We should get going ourselves!

Sounds good! You guys ready?

[cheering]

Navigate to planet Namek through the K-5162 system.

I'm glad they mentioned that shortcut.

What's the matter?

Oh, I was just wondering who this Frieza guy is

they kept talking about.

Well, they said the attackers weren't Saiyans, right?

It just sounded like something Saiyans would do.

Just forget about it, Krillin!

Try to get some sleep.

I'll see you guys... Whenever I wake up.

[SUBORDINATE 1] Hey, look.

[siren beeping]

[SUBORDINATE 2] Something's coming.

[beeping continues]

[SUBORDINATE 1] Is it Frieza?!

[SUBORDINATE 2] No! That's impossible.

I think I recognize that signal.

Of course! It's Vegeta.

Well, that's strange, isn't it?

Something must have happened...

I never got an arrival report.

Yes... Control tower, come in.

Vegeta is here. Prepare for his arrival.

Look! Up there!

There's only one pod! Where's Nappa?

What is he doing? He should be out by now!

I'm receiving a very low life-force reading on him.

What?!

[SUBORDINATE D] Why, he's using his life support system!

[SUBORDINATE E] Quick! Let's get him to the treatment center.

[rumbling]

What was that?!

Don't know!

[GOHAN and KRILLIN whimpering]

[KRILLIN] Bulma! Something's happening to the ship!

[BULMA] Don't worry, Krillin.

This shortcut takes us through a recently exploded nebula.

It's just a storm in space. Don't be a wimp.

I mean really, how can she sleep

through all this shaking?

[screaming]

[thunder]

[distant thunder]

I think it stopped.

[BULMA] Huh?

Uh?

[KRILLIN] Uhh...

[bonk]

That was really uncalled for, Bulma!

Don't you ever lay your hands on me again while I'm sleeping!

No, Bulma! It looked a lot worse than it really was.

I know what I saw!

And I'm sure I didn't fall asleep

while lying in Krillin's lap!

[BULMA gasps]

[BULMA laughing]

Woah, that looks like it hurts a lot.

[BULMA] Guys! Check this out!

Yes! It's Namek! We finally made it!

That sure was a fast trip, huh, guys?

If it weren't for that shortcut,

we'd only be halfway there.

Are you sure that's...

Planet Namek?

Trust me, it's the right planet!

Now, let's go and find those Dragon Balls!

[NARRATOR] Bulma believes they have arrived at planet Namek,

though Krillin and Gohan have their doubts.

They're about to discover whose hunch is correct

as they prepare for their landing. What mysteries await?

Find out, on the next Dragon Ball Z!
