"We're safe now..." Gohan said as he felt Vegeta and Luna's power levels slowly fade into the distance. "Vegeta will never find us down here!"

Krillin let out a sigh of relief, shaking his head as he thought about how pissed the Saiyan must be right now. I hope he doesn't take it out on Luna...

"Why would anyone look for us in such a horrible place!" Bulma hissed, crossing her arms while glaring at the ground.

"Well, uh, look on the bright side Bulma..." Krillin stated while attempting to sound reassuring, "At least this way you're not stuck in a cave anymore..."

"Krillin's right. We just gotta be positive-"

"You want positive?!" Bulma interrupted, making both Gohan and Krillin stare at her in surprise. "Alright! I am positive that we have no food or water or even a bathroom for that matter! How's that for positive?!" She finished, stomping her foot on the ground as she waited for an answer. "Well?"

"Hey, I got an idea Bulma..." Krillin said, trying to calm the blue haired woman down. "Why don't you wait here while Gohan and I visit Guru and get him to awaken Gohan's hidden powers?"

Gohan blinked, not understanding what he was talking about. "To... To do what?"

"I will not be left out here all by myself!" She shouted, angry at the fact that they were even thinking about leaving her alone again.

"You gotta trust me." Krillin said, trying his best to exude confidence. "First of all, we'll be back before you know it... And second, when we do return, Vegeta won't stand a chance against me and Gohan!"

Bulma looked at him with wide eyes, wondering to herself if that was truly possible. Gohan seemed surprised at his friend's statement too.

"You'll see..." Krillin continued, smirking as he made a fist in the air. "Once we get back from Guru's, we'll find Vegeta, get the dragonballs and save Luna too!"

"Yeah!" Gohan cheered, trying his best to follow his own advice and stay positive, hoping that his new friend was okay...

...

Somewhere else on Namek...

...

Luna sat on the ground near the rest of the dragonballs, watching as Vegeta paced back and forth in front of her. He hadn't said a word since his little outburst back at the cave. 

I wonder what's going on up there... Luna thought, watching his face as he frowned. He seemed to be pretty preoccupied with whatever he was thinking about...

"What are you staring at woman?!" He shouted suddenly, sending her a nasty glare that almost made her fall backwards in shock.

"I... I, um... N-nothing..."

"Tch, whatever." Vegeta rasped in annoyance before returning his attention to what his next move would be. Dammit... If Kakarot's son truly has some sort of dragonball tracking device, I can't afford to leave these unguarded even for a second... Not until I know exactly where he and his little bald friend are hiding... I have to focus... Wait for them to make their next move and sense them out...

Vegeta growled, glancing back to where the six orange balls sat while noticing the purple haired woman playing with a few blades of grass nervously. At least I have her to use as a bargaining chip in case they try anything stupid...

Luna jumped suddenly, looking towards Vegeta as the ground began to vibrate. He seemed just as surprised as the sound of a large explosion erupted in the distance. A few moments later, it happened again... And again. 

"Vegeta-"

"Hmm... It seems Frieza's getting a bit restless..." He mumbled, smirking as he envisioned how furious the ugly monster must be right now. "I guess he's not too happy that I destroyed his ship's main power core..."

Another blast shook the ground, this time sounding a bit closer as Luna began to panic. Frieza's going to turn this entire planet to dust trying to find these things! She thought, running her hand along the glossy surface of the dragonball while trying to come up with a plan. What can I do... What can I do?!

She glanced at the Saiyan, who was currently staring at the sky with his back to her, watching as a beam of pink energy actually soared right over where they were hiding before connecting with something in the distance and exploding.

Think... Think, Luna, think! Vegeta wants the dragonballs for himself so he can defeat Frieza... Gohan and Krillin want the dragonballs so they can wish their friends back to life... But they also don't want Frieza to get them... If Vegeta and Gohan and Krillin could just put their differences aside, we'd already have all seven and be able to wish for enough power to take down Frieza once and for all! She realized, getting excited about her idea before reality started to sink in. 

Vegeta would never agree to a comprise though... Luna thought sadly, returning her gaze to the spiky haired man. I'm guessing it would be hard to convince Gohan and Krillin to trust him as well... But if it meant the universe would be rid of Frieza-

"Woman!" Vegeta yelled, snapping her out of her thoughts as she blinked a few times before realizing he was speaking to her. "Stop your day dreaming and listen!"

"Y-yes?" She replied in a small voice, standing up while brushing some of the dirt from her dress anxiously.

"Until I am able to locate your little Earthling friends, you're going to assist me in becoming stronger."

"What? But how-"

"By fighting of course!" Vegeta interrupted, looking at her like she was stupid. "You will attack me and when I become severely injured, heal me again. A Saiyan becomes significantly stronger every time they come close to death..."

"But... Vegeta, I'm not really a fighter... I can only heal!" Luna explained, shaking her head nervously. "I've never been trained in any sort of combat..."

"You're kidding me." He said flatly, staring at her as if waiting for her to say her previous statements were a joke. "You don't know how to fight? You can't even form a ki blast?!"

"Um, well... No."

The Saiyan growled, stalking towards her while cursing internally at all the annoying things he had to deal with lately. He grabbed her wrist roughly, leading her a short distance from the dragonballs before continuing. "Well, it's time you learn-"

"Wait!" Luna said abruptly, catching the prince off guard as she yanked her arm out of his grasp. He wasn't expecting her to fight back, that fact clearly evident from the surprised look on his face.

"Woman... I wouldn't-"

"You have to make me a promise!" She added while sounding somewhat rushed, hoping that she was able to say what she had planned before her courage ran out. "If I'm going to help you, you can't hurt Gohan and Krillin... Or Bulma! You can't hurt or kill anymore Namekians either! Please Vegeta... I can't watch any more innocent people die and know that it was my fault..."

"I don't think you're in any position to be giving orders..." Vegeta commented, grabbing her by the neck before she could react and glaring at her threateningly. "I suggest you do as I say or there really isn't any need for me to keep you around any longer..."

"I'd rather die than cause any more harm to this world." Luna insisted, looking him dead in the eyes as he continued to stare her down. "I refuse to help you unless you make me that promise."

The Saiyan growled, holding her gaze for a moment longer before dropping her, knowing there was no other way right now. He turned around, walking a few steps away before glancing over his shoulder in irritation.

"Well, come on then! And pay close attention! Every moment we waste is just more time Frieza has to call for reinforcements!"

Luna sent a truly genuine smile his way as she followed behind him, excited about whatever he was going to teach her. 

Maybe... Maybe Vegeta can compromise... She thought hopefully, giggling to herself when he returned her smile with a grunt of annoyance. Maybe we'll all be able to work together and defeat that monster Frieza after all...

Little did they know, their time was running out faster than they could ever imagine. Frieza's reinforcements were already on their way. And they were almost there...
