Kami's Lookout

"So, if I go in there... for a year, when I come back out, only one day will have passed?" Jagama wasn't sure he was comfortable with this time chamber idea, too weird for him. The black genie nodded in confirmation before pushing open the door.

"The further from this platform you go, the harsher the conditions. But take care how long you're in for, too long and you'll be stuck inside. The chamber can hold only two people at a time." Jagama glanced at the Prince from the corner of his eye. He wasn't sure he could handle a year of him, but the others weren't back yet and even when they did get back it's not like Vegeta would go in with any of them. The Prince had apparently read the boys mind.

"We're going in, I'd rather a year with you than that clown or his spawn." Jagama decided he'd pretend that was a compliment despite the tone of his voice.

"Alright let's go. Anything else Mr. Popo?" The genie shook his head and stepped aside from the doorway, the Saiyan passed into the room and each took their time to get used to the white scenery. The door closed behind them as Jagama took his first step onto the strange floor. He immediately felt a pressure around him, but overcame it with relative ease. It reminded him of his home planet.

Vegeta watched as the time traveller began throwing a few test punches out in the void. The prince decided he would train his transformation first. He noticed that this teenagers transformation took less of a toll on his energy, effectively removing the Super – Saiyan greatest weakness. The room was bathed in golden light as Vegeta began training.

Jagama ran through some moves as he watched the Prince, he couldn't quite figure out what he was trying to do but he certainly wasn't expecting the prideful Saiyan to train in any other way than simply brawling to near death and healing up again. Jagama tried to focus in on his ki, and felt Vegeta was keeping it contained, Jagama guessed he was trying to reduce the strain of the transformation but if carried on like that he'd end up hurting himself, or exploding. Jagama decided against telling the Saiyan what he was doing wrong, he didn't think it'd go down well, and thought about the technique for instant transmission as he ran through another moveset.

Wasteland

Cell growled as he hurled yet another blast into the mountain side. That bastardy time traveller had slipped through his fingers and taken precious 18 with him. Cell grunted as he took off towards the nearest town. What better way to draw out the good guys than to harm innocent civilians. And once he got his hands on one of them he'd make them squeal.

Capsule Corporation

Bulma sighed as Trunks burst into tears again, she just couldn't seem to get him down. Bulma pushed herself out of her chair to pick the demi-saiyan up, grabbing the TV controls as she did so. Resting back into the chair with the crying baby in her lap and remote in hand. She switched onto a news channel, if she couldn't see the Androids in person with everyone else then maybe she could catch them on the news or something. As the reports came in of entire cities of people disappearing earlier in the day leaving behind empty clothes, and now live footage of some monster blowing up skyscrapers. The genius bundled the purple haired package into the jetcopter and took off to kame-house in a daze muttering curses as she went.

Kame-house

Krillin glanced behind him to see the Android following as he set down on the Sandy shore of kame-house. He looked towards the small pink structure as his elderly master emerged. Only to suddenly realise how bad of an idea it was to bring a beautiful woman to an admirably perverted old man's personal island. As said pervert promptly ran toward the blonde, hands outstretched Krillin found himself talking the old man into the sand. Krillin glanced up to see the amused Android raise her brow at him, giving a sheepish grin in return Krillin helped his old master to his feet and turned back to the beauty.

"Sorry about this, I kinda forgot about, well... him." He gave an over exaggerated gesture to the old man and his nose bleed. 18 normally might've blasted the old man, but a combination of needing to align herself with these people and the endearingly apologetic look on this short man's face stayed her hand. She ran her eyes over the island and house more thoroughly, noticing an approaching jet copter in the distance as she did so, it seemed the short man, somehow despite looking the other way also noticed the approach as he abruptly turned, before muttering something under his breath and pulling the pervert back inside. 18 not really knowing what else to do, followed.

Hyperbolic Time Chamber

Jagama watched as the Prince fist sailed past, before landing a knee to his now unguarded stomach, Vegeta grunted and stepped back before swinging a leg round in low sweep kick catching the time traveller off guard. Recovering before he hit the ground Jagama flipped back to gain space before firing off a barrage of ki blasts at the widow peaked warrior. Vegeta was the perfect test target for this move, way too prideful to believe that he was being allowed to dodge and deflect the blasts. Jagama panted as he finished off the barrage, the Prince stood smirking, Jagama sent a smirk back and pulled the hovering blasts in crashing against the warrior from all sides. Jagama would have celebrated a successful first attempt, however a sudden golden light cutting through the dust cloud caused him to back off just in time for Vegeta's super Saiyan form to obliterate the area he was standing in. Jagama grit his teeth and transformed, Vegeta had improved dramatically, he already had the edge in terms of power so the time travellers only advantage was skill. But against the Prince's experience, even that was failing him. The time traveller gave up dodging and resorted to blocking as many of the enraged Saiyan attacks as possible failing to return any of his own. His instinct was to increase his speed but he was trying to get better without that painful technique, Jagama leaned back as far as he could to avoid an incoming left hook, but it wasn't far enough as he was sent tumbling back into the ground. Jagama almost relaxed where he lay when he remembered this wasn't Gohan he was sparring with, but the Saiyan Prince, a man who took no breaks. Springing up as quick as his bruised body would allow Jagama jumped over the Prince delivering a series of beam like ki blasts as he went before landing with a kick to the elder Saiyan back. He'd practices that combo many times on Trunks and Gohan. It was enough to slow the Super Saiyan down as Jagama jumped into the air and released a Kamehameha at the Prince. Vegeta recovered fast spinning with a big bang attack to block the incoming ki before pushing it back as he fed more and more power into the attack.

Jagama dropped out of the sky just fast enough for the blue ball of death to sail overhead, but Vegeta was expecting it waiting for him with swift uppercut knocking the young warrior out cold, his hair fading to black as his body hit the ground. Grunting the still powered up Vegeta tossed the limp body back into the sleeping area if the chamber before continuing alone. He decided that the boy had honour, despite being apparently raised by weaklings. As the Prince fell into a routine he decided he'd train the boy to be a real Saiyan.

Kame-house

Krillin grimaced as the baby burst into tears again. Bulma had barged in turned on the TV before asking if the short man had any idea what was going on, the blue haired woman screamed as it was revealed the blonde standing behind her was one if the Androids. Krillin sighed in resignation as the genius attempted to calm her son. He glanced at 18 who was looking impatient, he guessed she was worried about the monster finding her, that or she was itching to fight. As another ear-piercing squeal rang out the monk decided doing anything was better than listening to that.

18 glanced up as Krillin stood before walking outside, she watched with interest as the short man generated a light aura before flowing into a well practices move set. She found it enchanting seeing the small figure's mastery of his movements and energy control. She didn't particularly know how to fight properly, relying on brute strength and combat programming. Mind made up 18 joined him on the sand, a small smile coming to her face as his eyes widened.

"Let's train together." Her bluntness seemed to surprise him, but he smiled happily all the same. Nodding the small monk gestured for her to take her stance.

"S-Sure, why don't we start off with a spar?" 18 felt her cheeks heat up as she sunk into her simple stance. She definitely felt outclassed despite her considerable power advantage. The noseless man seemed a little put off by her stance, perhaps he thought she wasn't taking it seriously, at the thought 18 felt the need to explain.

"I don't really have any real training." He seemed to understand she was referring to her pathetic stance as he nodded.

"Right." A switch flicked as the monk switched to battle mode, the intensity of his analytical gaze almost causing the blonde to shiver. She didn't have long to consider it though as he blurred into movement fast enough to surprise her. The two exchanged blows, 18 keeping her power slightly above the monks to compensate for her lack of experience and training, Krillin pulling his punches to keep the spar on friendly terms as he attempted to help her form.

Kami's Lookout

Dende wobbled as he, Goku, Gohan and Piccolo appeared on the lookout tiles, he glanced around the place taking in the white building and well kept gardens. A small back figure emerged startling the young Namek slightly and Goku waved a hand at the small figure in greeting.

"Hey Mr. Popo! Dende here is going to be the new guardian!" The genie smiled and greeted the new guardian before leading him away into the lookout. As the two left Piccolo called out.

"Don't forget, Dragon Balls are the priority, the rest can be learned after this threat is dealt with." Gohan noticed Mr. Popo didn't seem happy about that but it was hard to tell, the genie nodded and continued leading the alien boy away. Gohan started as a hand clapped down on his shoulder, he looked up to see his fathers excited smile.

"Not long now 'till Vegeta and Jagama come out if the chamber Gohan, then it's our turn." Gohan nodded and returned the smile, squashing down the nervousness his father didn't seem to feel.

A few hours passed before Mr. Popo re-emerged with Dende ready for the time chamber to open. Gohan and his father stood anxiously by the door, Krillin had arrived with 18 and they, along with Piccolo and Tien stood behind them. Bulma was touching down, having followed after Krillin and the Android. The doors opened and pure light from the white void within streamed through the crack before it was blocked by two Saiyan silhouettes. Every warrior on the lookout had been unprepared for the sheer power radiating from the two Saiyan as they emerged, Jagama now having several large tears and holes in his clothing and Vegeta wearing only his burnt and torn spandex suit. Both smirked at the gaping jaws of the Son's. Goku was almost vibrating with excitement as he gauged the depths of these two's new power. He could hardly imagine what happened if they went Super-Saiyan.

"Oh man! You guys sure got strong huh! Oh man I cant wait till my turns up!" Jagama grinned at the saviour, and nodded down to Gohan he smiled back, shutting his mouth for the first time since the Saiyans emerged. Vegeta smirked at his rival and gave a brief flare of power.

"Maybe you and I should fight here and now Kakarot, see whose the true Saiyan warrior." The man smirked back his pride coming forth in a rare show of his Saiyan heritage.

"I'm sure you'd rather have a real challenge Vegeta, just wait till I come out of there. We can settle it then." Vegeta held back his grin at the other Saiyan rising to the challenge and kept his smirk.

"Then you'll both be disappointed." The two turned to Jagama as he crossed his arms flaring his power as Vegeta had. The Saiyan's smirked at each other before chuckling. "C'mon, you're turn in the chamber or we'll kill Cell without you."
