"Vandal Savage has been spotted near the border of Bialya," Batman started as the Team listened. The holographic screens popped up with images of Savage entering a warehouse. "Given the recent activity in the country, the Team will investigate. This is a patrol mission only. Go in, find out what Vandal Savage is doing, and get out." The Team nodded and headed towards the Bio Ship.

While they were flying, Artemis turned to Gohan. "So, have you decided on what your superhero name will be yet?"

Gohan sat there for a second. "I think I will go with Kakarot. It is my father's original name, and vague enough that they can't track it back to me." The rest of the Team nodded. After another 20 minutes of flight, Bialya started to come within view.

"We are moving into position. Activate stealth mode." At Aqualad's orders, everyone switched to their stealth gear, including Gohan, who pressed Piccolo's symbol on his Saiyan armor, changing the blue spandex to black, and his chest piece, boots, and gloves to grey, while keeping the gold parts. He had asked Piccolo to specially materialize his outfit to do that when he learned of the necessity of stealth on missions. "Team one, move out." At this, Gohan and Miss Martian got up to exit through the hatch while Artemis took over flying the Bioship. The two heroes flew around the perimeter of the warehouse to get good vantage points. "Kakarot, how many are there?"

Gohan searched the warehouse with his senses and noticed multiple average kis and three extremely high ones. "I have 25 grunts in the warehouse and three people with above average kis. One of them must be Vandal Savage." In his spare time over the past few weeks, Gohan had been doing research and studying the history of this Earth, especially on the villains that plagued it. He knew Savage to be an immortal who was very strong, and correctly deduced his ki would be higher than normal.

"If Vandal Savage is one of those three, then we need to find out who the other two are." Aqualad noticed the Bioship was now floating half a mile to the southeast of the warehouse. "Team two, deploy." Robin, Kid Flash, and Superboy took a rappel down from the Bioship, which then flew to half a mile west of the warehouse and deployed Aqualad and Artemis. "Get good vantage points on the warehouse." The Team moved up to the perimeter. "Miss Martian, how many patrols do we have?"

"There are three people guarding the west entrance and four on the east. There are also five on the roof."

"Team two, on my mark, take out the guards on the east entrance. Team one handle the guards on the roof, and Artemis and I will take out the west entrance guards. Go!" Aqualad ran forward and began to fight the three guards while Artemis fired arrows at them. On the other side, Robin, Kid Flash, and Superboy took out the four guards with ease. On the rooftop, Gohan floated down behind one of the guards and chopped his neck, knocking him out, while Miss Martian flew up to two of the other guards and began using the skills that Black Canary had taught her to fight them. Gohan appeared behind the last two guards with his incredible speed and took them out easily while Miss Martian finished her two.

"Rooftop clear," Gohan called.

"East entrance clear," came Robin's response.

"West entrance clear," Aqualad called. "Let's get into the warehouse. Miss Martian, link us up." Miss Martian used her telepathic abilities to open up their connection. "Kakarot, Miss Martian, get in and see what you can find. Robin, get up to the roof and join them. The rest of us, clear the unconscious away from the base in case anyone steps out." As soon as the order was given, Robin shot a grappling hook up to the roof and joined Kakarot and Miss Martian as they made their way through the roof entrance and into the warehouse. Robin snuck along the scaffolding while Kakarot and Miss Martian flew stealthily next to him, where they had a good view of Vandal Savage, joined by Solomon Grundy and Sportsmaster.

"With these weapons, we can start the next phase of our plan," they heard Vandal Savage say to Sportsmaster. "Bialya will become fully militarized and ready to become a new superpower."

"Looks like Savage is working with Sportsmaster on getting weapons snuck into Bialya," Robin informed the Team. "They have Solomon Grundy here, but that has to be just for a spare bodyguard. There's no way that oaf could have helped plan any of this."

"We cannot let those weapons cross the border," Aqualad called back. "This area of the world is unstable enough with war as it is. If Bialya becomes a powerful military force, it could spark World War 3. Team two: on my mark, break through the door and surprise attack the guards. Team three: we will take the west entrance. Team one: distract Sportsmaster, Savage, and Grundy. We will take care of destroying the weapons, and then retreat. Understood?" When everyone confirmed their agreement, Aqualad ordered them to begin. Kid Flash and Superboy began taking care of guards with ease along with Aqualad and Artemis. Robin cackled and jumped down to kick Sportsmaster, while Miss Martian assisted him. Gohan flew down and landed in front of Vandal and Solomon Grundy.

"Well. The children found a new friend," Vandal Savage sneered, looking Gohan up and down. "I have never seen you before. Who the hell are you supposed to be?" Instead of waiting for a response, Savage waved his hand at Grundy, who ran forward to tackle Kakarot. However, all he tackled was air, as Kakarot left an afterimage and appeared behind Savage with a kick to the neck. He was surprised when Savage blocked the kick and turned around to engage Gohan in hand to hand.

"You think you can trick me with that technique? I have been alive for millennia. I have learned martial arts from some of the most ancient masters this world has seen. A simple afterimage will not fool me. You impress me though child. I can sense that your power is great. Join me and I can hone you into the perfect warrior."

"No thanks," Gohan responded as he got the upper hand on Savage and landed a solid punch to his gut before roundhouse kicking him in the face, sending Savage flying off a few yards to the side. "You may be strong, but you are no match for me. Give up."

"I may not be a match for you," Savage conceded as he stood up and put his hands behind his back, "but let's see how you fare against Grundy on Kobra-Venom." As he said that, he turned and injected Solomon Grundy with the strength-enhancing formula, causing his already monstrous size to almost double, and his already significant power level to skyrocket, leveling off at almost Gohan's strength as a Super Kakarot.

"Guys, we need to get out of here now!" Robin called as he witnessed the behemoth begin to attack Gohan, who was dodging the attacks fairly well and responding with a few of his own. "Are the weapons destroyed?"

"Yes, all of the weapons have been taken care of," Aqualad responded. "Kakarot, our mission here is complete. Give us an escape."

Gohan was a bit annoyed that he was interrupted from a good fight, but nodded regardless. "Got it. Everyone shield your eyes." As the Team started to protect their eyes, Gohan floated in front of the three super villains and put his hands to his face. "SOLAR FLARE!"The bright flash of light provided by the technique blinded the three villains temporarily, and when they were finally able to see again, they found the young heroes to be all gone.

"Come Sportsmaster," Savage said as he began to walk away from the scene. "We must inform our allies of these new developments."

"Your orders were to observe the exchange and leave," Batman lectured as the Team stood in front of him. "Instead you engaged the enemy. Well done. You adapted yet again to the mission and ensured that many lives were saved by destroying their arms cache. You all are dismissed." Robin and Batman returned to the Batcave while Gohan flew outside to where Piccolo and Tien were waiting and began to train once more. The rest of the Team went their separate ways, enjoying the feeling of a job well done.

Undisclosed Location

"Our mission was unfortunately interrupted by the children yet again," Savage said to the screens of the silhouetted figures. "However, what intrigued me the most was the appearance of a new member." As he said this, images of Gohan fighting Savage and Grundy appeared on the screen. "His power was unlike any I have felt in a long time, and he was highly skilled.

The entire group muttered to themselves a little bit, until the silhouette of Klarion started to cackle. "What is it, Witch Boy?" Sportsmaster asked, annoyed by the laughter.

"It's been a long time since this Lord of Chaos got to play with a monkey," Klarion grinned evilly, though none could see it from the display. "I know his weakness. Saiyans will never be able to stand up to the power of the Light."

AN: Alright, sorry this is a bit shorter than I would like, but I felt like it was a self-contained chapter. I was going to add on the next segment of Vegeta and Frieza, but I figured it would be better in a chapter of its own. Thank you to everyone for the reviews and suggestions on the progress of the story, and I look forward to hearing more! Till next time!
