STAY AWAY FROM FRIEZA 7-17-02
Goku learns not only that Tien, Chaotzu, Yamcha, and Piccolo have arrived on King Kai's Planet, but that the stronger
being on Namek is way stronger than Goku, and fighting him would be suicide...so naturally, Goku makes plans to
fight him.
Vegeta runs into Zarbon, who transforms and lays a big hurt on him, but forgets to go back and find him, while Krillin and Dende head to find the eldest Namek.
Krillin and Dende arrive at the Eldest Nameks, where they meet Nail, guardian of Guru and shocking resemblance to Picclo. Krillin not only gets a serious power up, but he also receives the one star Dragon Ball. Meanwhile, Vegeta recovers...sort of.
Zarbon finds Vegeta and brings him back to be healed, but Vegeta doesn't seem to be recovering.
Vegeta recovers! And just in time to steal all 5 Dragon Balls from Freiza...but Vegeta notices Krillin flying by with the 1 star Dragon Ball...and then Vegeta gets noticed by Zarbon, who's gonna get fragged by Frieza if he doesn't find out where Vegeta hid his Dragon Ball!
Goku gets stuck in a magnetic storm, changing the gravity in the capsule to 100 times Earth's gravity, while Vegeta and Zarbon square off again. During all this, Gohan has found the 4 star Dragon Ball that Vegeta hid, and is trying hard to get back before he runs into Vegeta. Unfortunatly for Gohan, he's heading right for him!
Vegeta and Zarbon have a little rematch. Thing is, Zarbon isn't aware that Saiyan's grow stronger when they recover from a fight. Even when he transforms, Zarbon isn't much of a match for Vegeta. Realizing he's no match for Vegeta alone, Krillin hands over the 1 star Dragon Ball.
Shortly thereafter, Gohan is en route to the cave with the 4 star Dragon Ball when he runs into Vegeta! Gohan hides the Dragon Ball and swears to Vegeta that it's a watch he's holding. Vegeta informs him that they have to work together, since they're technically brothers...then knees Gohan hard in the stomach. Vegeta flies off, but still doesn't notice the Dragon Ball just inches away from him!
Gohan makes it back and the trio packs it up and heads out, holding only the 4 star Dragon Ball, but it's more than enough. Meanwhile, Vegeta has arrived at the Namek Camp and is searching for the Dragon Ball. Vegeta finally realizes the watch was a Dragon Ball location device, and the oh-so-angry Vegeta heads off with the intention of reducing Gohan to pulp.
As Krillin and Gohan head off for Guru's, Vegeta arrives where the rest of the Dragon Balls are hidden to brood and allow his senses to "re-align", trying to figure out how to protect his Dragon Balls and reclaim the 4 star Ball.
Meanwhile, Bulma loses the Dragon Ball! It's a bit of a hairy situation, but she does finally recover it.
SCRAMBLE FOR THE DRAGON BALLS 7-31-02
Two of Frieza's henchmen find Bulma. Bulma convinces them that they should find the other Dragon Balls and make a wish to be stronger than Frieza, and leads them back to the crab whom she saved.
Meanwhile, Vegeta notices Gohan and Krillin en route to Gurus. Taking one ball to ensure Frieza can't get them all, Vegeta sets off, ready to start some trouble.
ARRIVAL OF THE GINYU FORCE 8-1-02
Gohan gets his power up from Guru, and he may be just as strong as Vegeta! But there is a new problem: the Ginyu Force has arrived! Racoome, Burter, Jiece, Goldal, and Captain Ginyu are each as strong as Vegeta, so what hope is there? Vegeta suggests Krillin give him the Dragon Balls so he can wish for immortality, making him strong enough to beat them, but Krillin just doesn't trust him. They do, however, fly off to get the Dragon Ball just in case.
