DBAE: Rikmin Saga

This is the third saga of my Dragon Ball AE fanfic series. If you haven't yet, be sure to read the first saga, the New World Tournament Saga and the second saga, the Saiyan Attack Saga

Episode 1: Destination: Rikmin
Zeku is very upset after Goku's death. Meanwhile, Kan and the others are planning a trip to Planet Rikmin, to destroy the rest of the evil Saiyans. Zeku walks in on one of their meetings, and they tell him about their plan to head to Planet Rikmin. Zeku decides to go on the trip with Vegeta and Trunks. Krillin says that the ship has been made by Bulma Briefs, and everything is ready to go. Vegeta, Trunks, and Zeku board their ship, and they soon take off for Planet Rikmin!

Episode 2: The Voyage
Zeku and Trunks begin to train right away while the older Vegeta is piloting the ship. Vegeta reveals that he was only supposed to be on the trip so he could pilot the craft. Zeku and Trunks turn the gravity in the gravity room up to x100, and they fight a training battle. Zeku wins due to his amazing power, but Trunks wants a rematch. Trunks and Zeku fight late into the day, and they soon fall asleep.

Episode 3: Left or Right?
Zeku and Trunks wake up to find Vegeta asleep at the controls. They wake him up, and Vegeta struggles to find out where they are. He soon pinpoints where they are, and they are about a week away from Planet Rikmin now, when they were originally 3 days from the planet. Zeku gets impatient and walks away to go eat. While Zeku is gone, Vegeta tells Trunks that he really doesn't know where they are. They could be anywhere. Zeku returns as they pull up to a large red planet. Vegeta says that the scanners are going crazy, so this must be Planet Rikmin, and gets yelled at by Zeku. Trunks tells Zeku that Vegeta had no idea where they were, and he thought they were weeks away from Planet Rikmin. They land the ship, and Zeku and Trunks put on their Saiyan armor.

Episode 4: Rikmin Slaves
Zeku and Trunks step onto Planet Rikmin, and they find a bunch of little aliens carrying wood off to somewhere on the other side of the planet. Trunks asks what they are doing, and a child alien starts crying. One of the bigger aliens shushes the child, and tells Trunks that they are doing the best they can to get wood to their majesty. Zeku asks the aliens what they mean, and then he remembers that he is wearing Saiyan armor. He tells them that he is not a Saiyan, and that he is here to help them defeat the Saiyans. Trunks agrees, and the Rikmin aliens relax. The Rikmin leader tells the two heroes about how the Saiyans landed on their planet and immediately killed most of them. Then they demanded that the rest of them be slaves. Zeku says that is wrong, and he sets off for the Saiyans' camp. Then, Vegeta steps out of the spacecraft wearing his old Saiyan armor, and he says that he wants to die in a battle, not by age. They set off for the camp with their army of Rikmin warriors.

Episode 5: A Big Problem
Vegeta, Zeku, Trunks, and the Rikmin arrive at the camp when they find a full moon is in the air. Vegeta says that they must kill the Saiyans quietly, or they will all turn into Great Apes. One of the Rikmin was falling behind, so he does not hear Vegeta's command. He rushes into the camp with a spear and wakes up every Saiyan before he can kill one. The Saiyans sense other power levels, and they immediately decide to turn into Great Apes. The Great Ape army squash the foolish Rikmin, and Vegeta thinks that it is hopeless. Trunks reminds Vegeta that he has a tail, and Vegeta goes Great Ape along with Zeku, who never had his tail cut off due to there being no moon on Earth. Trunks is the only one not a Great Ape, so he goes Ultra Saiyan. They attack the Great Apes, but they are soon defeated due to the number of evil Saiyans there. All of them return to normal, and one of the Saiyans kills Vegeta, stating that he would be of no use. Zeku and Trunks are put to work helping the Rikmin gather wood.

Episode 6: Slaves No More
Trunks and Zeku don't work for long when they leave for their ship. The Rikmin follow, and soon all of the remaining Rikmin, Trunks, and Zeku blast off in their ship. They land on nearby Planet New Namek, where the Namekians promise to let the Rikmin live their lives in peace on their planet. Zeku and Trunks head back to Planet Rikmin, since there is no one to worry about if they get killed.

Episode 7: Mission Ape
Zeku and Trunks devise a plan to get rid of the 24/7 full moon of Rikmin. They decide to send a ki blast looking like it came from the moon so that the Saiyans fire their blasts at it. The moon should be too weak to stay together after the power of their blasts. Trunks fires a ki blast, but the Saiyans realize that it isn't from the moon and they start a search around the planet for the two guys.

Episode 8: No More Moon
Trunks finally decides to get rid of the moon with a Buster Cannon. It connects, and the moon falls apart. The Saiyans notice where the blast came from, and they fly towards that spot. In the hours they are flying, Trunks and Zeku train for the upcoming battle with the Saiyans.
