After resting at Earth, a few days after the battle with Majin Buu, Goku and company celebrate having a lifetime of hardship well fought. Life seemed to throw them an endless barage of nearly impossible conflicts; all of which Goku held the solution in a tensed, prepared fist that overthrew evil, taught people how to live morally, and gave them control in their own lives. It had been nearly an hour since Vegeta began to stand outside, and a little longer since Vegeta freaked out and was told by Goku to stand outside for about an hour. So, Goku, certain that Vegeta had had plenty of time to cool off, decided to check on his friend.

"KAKAROT! YOU COULD HAVE KILLED BUU YOURSELF! Why did you have to wait for the humans to trust you? I had faith in you, but looking back, you nearly caused the death of the universe THROUGH SHEER LAZINESS! A talent if i ever saw one..."

"H-Hey, Vegeta, it wasn't li-"

"I am fed up with your morals if they can't even guarantee your success! Let's see how well your 'happy-go-lucky' attitude works on that freak in the tux who's standing at our forest's edge!" The man standing their gave off a negative feel towards both Vegeta and Goku. They both knew nothing good would come from this visitor. But Vegeta wasn't immediately confrontational, instead he was relying on Goku to back him up if things went sour, a strange change in Vegeta that Goku welcomed. Goku's face turned from worry to challenge-induced excitement. He understood Vegeta's plan, a great one for reducing the threat of an unknown enemy. "I suppose that grin means you haven't even noticed until now, even though he's stood there for hours!" (Vegeta's 'Your an idiot!' card, possibly one of the most powerful in this universe).

Goku's laughs, "Alright, Vegeta, see what's up with him. Besides, I am curious to see how he talks if he doesn't have a mouth! ... Be careful..."

Up to this point, neither of them had given a direct eye towards this unknown person, to make it feel, if possible, that its presence is still unknown. They considered it possible that it might be a spy of sorts, and since neither could detect the slightest bit of a power level, they knew that this creature was likely very powerful, so they acted with such care. However, now that they were together, Goku being a little slow on the uptake, it was time to begin the confrontation.
As Vegeta looked directly at this new character, Goku was aware of a very slight wince in Vegeta's stance, and at that same instant, certainly to cover his hesitation (though to cover it from Goku or the man, he was not certain), he began to walk towards the man, shouting, "Would you like to join us, fo... fo..." gradually his walk turned into a slight limp, than a drone-like dragging. His original attempt was to act inviting and fearless, but as he saw the figure's head tilt during this moment that felt of more gravity than he's ever trained in before, his intent tilted from Goku back to Vegeta. He leapt forward screaming, head first, and fist prepared for battle, and about half-way to this mysterious being Vegeta dropped straight to the ground, coughing up blood and crying. Vegeta was then sent hurling backward towards Goku, silent. Goku was angered.

Goku initially wanted to blame Vegeta for trying to assault him, but then he thought better, leaned over him, and said, "Thank you for trying."

"I was in that Hell for eternity... -cough-... kill that bas..."

Of course Goku wouldn't kill him if he could avoid it. Killing him would certainly be easier than detaing or disabling a creature of such power, however, and at this point, he wasn't even sure if he could kill it. And so, he got up, turned and stared at his new adversary, and put his index and middle fingers on his forehead.
