A power hungry race of barbaric warriors, the Saiyans, struck fear into the universe by wiping out all existance on planets that were suitable for them to sell to other alien races who were looking for a new home. The Saiyans homeworld, Vegeta, was destroyed by Frieza, a powerful being who feared the Saiyans potential. The only survivors were three members of the Saiyan Elite - Vegeta, Nappa, and Raditz, and another who was on Earth - Kakarot. Kakarot was sent to Earth as an infant to destroy all life on Earth, since its inhabitants were weak. After taking a nasty fall, Kakarot lost his memories along with his Saiyan killer instinct, and became Earth's hero instead of its destroyer, and named Goku by the kind old man who had found him - Gohan. Vegeta sent Raditz to Earth to get Goku, needing all the manpower they could get ever since their race was wiped out. Goku refused, and with the help of his former nemesis Piccolo, killed Raditz. Vegeta and Nappa eventually came to Earth to get their hands on the Dragon Balls, powerul energy spheres scattered across the globe which summoned the Eternal Dragon to grant any wish once retrieved and brought together. Vegeta's plan was to get all the Dragon Balls and wish himself and Nappa immortality. After killing most of the special forces, they met defeat soon after Goku arrived from his place of training at King Ki's. While Goku recovered from the fight, Krillin, Gohan, and Bulma took off for Namek to find another set of Dragon Balls and wish their friends back. They encounter Vegeta and Frieza's forces there, each of who also want the Dragon balls for their own evil plans. Goku races to Namek in a space pod, building up his power level, as Krillin and Gohan try to survive. |
