Where the hell do you think you're going??

"One down. Two more to go" I smirked at Frieza

Frieza growled and looked to Gohan

"Kill them" he commanded. Gohan screamed and powered up to Super Saiyan. He broke the chain from his collar and charged towards us. Goku pushed me out of the way and his son crashed into him

"Goku!" I yelled out as Gohan pushed his father back into a tree. He held Goku against the tree and growled

"Gohan! Son! This isn't you!" Goku yelled out

Gohan gripped Goku's shirt and pulled him away from the tree. He held his shirt and swung his father around in a circle. He let him go and Goku flew past us and hit another tree

The team, including Vegeta, ran over and helped him up. He dusted himself off and we all looked to Gohan. He charged up a blast and sent it out way. We all jumped out of the path and watched it hit the tree, causing it to explode. Sticks, bark, and leaves rained from the sky.

"We need to get that collar off of him!" I shouted

"Vegeta! I want you and Yamcha to distract him. Piccolo and I will try to get his collar off while he's focused on you. Y/n will keep watch on Broly and Frieza" Goku said

"Why does Y/n get to sit this out!?" Yamcha complained

"Please, by all means, you go watch Broly and Frieza. And when Frieza sends Broly after us, you can fight him off" I shrugged

Yamcha's eyes went wide. He looked to Broly and Frieza. They were staring at at us

"N-No thanks" he said

Vegeta chuckled to himself and looked to Goku

"Alright, Kakarot, we go when you say" He said

Goku nodded at us "Now" he quickly said

Immediately Vegeta and Yamcha took off towards Gohan. I glued my eyes to Frieza. He watched Yamcha, Gohan, and Vegeta like a hawk. Broly just kept his eyes forward, unfazed by what was happening around him

"....my poor Broly..." I whispered to myself. The feelings I had for Broly resurfaced and it was fucking with me. Did I still love Broly? Yes. Did I now love Goku? Yes. If we save Broly and use the Dragon Balls to bring his memory back...will I pick him over Goku? I don't know.

Vegeta and Yamcha had managed to get Gohan's attention. They were throwing blasts at him from the side and front. Piccolo and Goku snuck up behind him. Piccolo stretched his arms out and wrapped them around Gohan as best as he could.

Gohan wiggled and twisted in Piccolo's arms. The grip was tight enough to hold him.

"Now Vegeta!" Goku yelled. Vegeta sighed and quickly grabbed the front of the collar. Goku grabbed the back and all four of them screamed out in pain as the shock ran through their bodies

*Meanwhile. Third Person POV*

Krillin landed outside of Bulma's house. He ran towards the door and used his shoulder to smash into it. The door broke down and Krillin stumbled inside

"KRILLIN!!?" Bulma angrily yelled out as she stared at her broken door

"H-He needs help" Krillin said as he stared down at the small Saiyan boy in his arms

Bulma's face dropped as she saw him. She motioned for Krillin to follow her to the Infirmary.

Bulma ran to an empty room and helped Krillin place the boy on a bed. She touched his skin

"He feels warm. What happene? Where's Y/n?" She asked

"F-Frieza...F-Frieza had Marcus under his control. They managed to break him free but he still has Gohan..a-and...Broly" Krillin was shaking with fear. Frieza killed him once before. And he knew Goku and Vegeta could barely hold their own against Broly. One controlling the other? It terrified him to the core

"Frieza?! BROLY!!? T-They should both be dead??" Bulma's voice was shaking

"What's all the scre-" Trunks walked into the room and his eyes locked on to Marcus. He darted to his friends side and stared at him

"What happened to him??" Trunks asked

"I don't know" Bulma answered as she looked to Krillin

Krillin looked from Bulma to Trunks "The device Frieza is using-"

Trunks cut him off "Frieza!?" He shouted

"Yeah! The device he's using to control them was a collar of some sort. When Y/n and Vegeta grabbed it to remove it...it shocked them. Vegeta and Y/n were okay but Marcus passed out" Krillin looked to the small boy in the bed.

Krillin would always be the first to admit he was wrong. That's just who he was. And seeing the small boy lay on the bed, unconscious, he realized he was wrong

He was wrong to treat Y/n and her son the way he did. They all were. She was just a mother trying to provide a better life for her son. Nothing more. Krillin sighed and sat on the chair next to the bed.

Bulma gently placed a cold washcloth on Marcus' head to cool him down. Trunks paced back and forth with his hands behind his back. He looked just like his father in that moment.

"Hey! He's moving!" Krillin excitedly shouted as he stared at Marcus. The boy's eyes began to flutter open. He quickly sat up and looked around the room, scared and confused

"Where am I?" He asked.

"At the infirmary in my house" Bulma gently smiled at the boy. Marcus suddenly felt safe. He knew Bulma. His mom was her friend. So he trusted her

"Where's my mom? Goku? Gohan?" Marcus asked Bulma

"They...are busy" she didn't want to tell him the truth. She didn't even know how to tell him the truth. Frieza was using his dead-but-brought-back-to-life dad to take kill his mother and Goku. How do you even tell a 7 year old that?

"With what" Marcus could tell she was hiding something from him. His eyes darted to Krillin and locked on the small man. Krillin nervously laughed and looked to Bulma. Bulma sighed and sat down on the bed next to Marcus

"I know your mom tells you everything....so it's only fair if I do too...There's a bad man out there...Frieza.." Bulma spoke softly and slowly

"I know the freak. Mom told me all about him" Marcus said

"...Frieza is using...someone...to destroy the planet and...hurt your mother and Goku" Bulma said

"He's trying to kill them" Marcus corrected her

"Uh-I-" Bulma tried to back track but Marcus cut her off

"I'm not a baby. I know what death is. I know what danger is. My mom and Goku are in danger because this freak wants to kill them. What else? Who is he using?" Marcus asked

Bulma looked to Krillin. He shrugged his shoulders at her. She looked back to Marcus and sighed

"He had you under control. You, Gohan, and...um...B-Broly..." Bulma said. She flinched as she waited for a reaction from the boy. He clenched his jaw and looked up to Bulma

"That's my father...isn't it?" He asked her

"Y-Yes...Frieza brought him back to life and erased his memories of you and your mother...he's just a mindless killing machine now" She said

Marcus nodded and jumped out of bed. He began walking to the door when Bulma shouted

"Where the hell do you think your going?? You need to rest!"

Marcus didn't stop walking. He simply said

"I'm going to save my mother" And continued on his way.
