Flying at Kuririn, Ayumi unleashed a furious combo but Kuririn managed to evade each attack. Ayumi became angered at the fact she could not hit him but this anger caused her to lose her concentration for one second. Just the opening that was needed.

BAM!!

Kuririn slammed into the side of the beautiful Saya-jins face, sending her bouncing along the floor spewing up dust as she went. Kuririn landed in front of #18 and readied himself for another attack.

"Ayumi!" shouted Vegita, "He's making sport of you." He added with a laugh.

"That shall change lord Vegita." She replied, getting to her feet. She spread her arms out at either side of her and began to power up, shaking the very foundations of the planet. Her hair started to stand on end as she powered up, flashing from black to gold every few seconds until finally a bright light exploded. When the light cleared away, the Z senshi looked on in utter amazement. There, standing in a shimmering golden aura stood Ayumi, a super Saya-jin.

Piccoro hovered in the air, his eyes transfixed upon her as she stood there, her golden hair swaying in the breeze.

"We can't win." He said, a look of pure fear on his green face, "Not without Goku."

"Don't mention Kakarotto in my presence, that low class warrior can't even fathom the powers that I have obtained."

"Don't count on that Vegita." Came a voice, followed by a Ki blast out of nowhere, striking the ground in front of Ayumi. The whole Z senshi looked up into the sky above. Hovering in the air was none other than Goku himself. A look of astonishment spread over Vegita's face.

"Kak…Kakarotto! How did you get here." Asked Vegita,

"I'll explain once you finish your pointless attack on this planet."

"Never, you could never defeat me!" shouted Vegita in return, "Ayumi, kill him."

Before she could move Goku had landed on the ground and slapped her in the side of the face, sending he flying past Vegita inside the ship.

Now Vegita removed his black cloak revealing a brand new Saya-jin armour suit.

"This is what I've been waiting for!" shouted Vegita, "Two super Saya-jin's going head to head for honour and victory."

"I don't care about the honour or the victory Vegita. I thought you'd grown above all of that."

"Never, that is all that matters to me now."

"What about your wife and child, young Trunks has grown without a father." Replied Goku,

"Who cares, I experienced the same childhood. Anyway Kakarotto, how have you returned, the dragon hasn't been summoned."

"Kaio-sama asked the Nameks to wish me back to life using Porunga. I guess it worked as I had the advantage of a surprise."

"A low class warrior like yourself can't win without an advantage!"

Vegita flew at Goku, missing with the initial attack as Goku dodged with ease then he disappeared.

"Where are you?!" shouted Vegita,

"Behind you." Goku appeared behind him and delivered a punch to his side, breaking straight through the armour. Vegita fell to his knees, clutching at his side.

"You can't win Vegita." Said Goku, towering over his opponent,

"No! You're wrong!" Vegita stood and turned super Saya-jin, his hair going wild. "I have been training in conditions you can't even imagine."

"I probably could imagine them Vegita. I've been training the whole time I've been away. I've been using thirty ton weights on each of my legs and arms."

Vegita looked shocked at this revelation, "How could you manage such weight. You're bluffing."

"Test me." Came the reply as Goku smiled at his opponent.

Vegita placed his hands into the position to launch a Final Flash attack. Goku just stood there, watching this happen. The bolt of energy was launched straight at him but he just deflected it with one hand.

"I'm too strong for you Vegita."

"But you're careless." A voice came from just behind Goku's back. Ayumi grabbed hold of his kneck and tightened her grip so much that he could hardly get any air. "You shall die this day."

"Don't count on it bitch." Flying to Gokus rescue was none other than Gohan who had stayed at the back this whole time. He could barely measure up to her but got her off his father. Goku fell to his knees holding his throat.

"How did I miss that?" he asked himself. Ayumi regained her balance and replied to Goku's question,

"I know a little trick named instant transmission." She replied. Everyone gasped.

"All your efforts are futile woman." Said Vegita, walking forward and hitting Ayumi out of the way. "This coward is mine."

Vegita powered up again but this time he surpassed the second level of super Saya-jin. His hair started to grow longer with every second. His eyebrows disappeared and his muscles bulged. He had reached super Saya-jin level three. He flew at Goku as he got to his feet and knocked him back. His strength was unbelievable. Goku pushed himself up and jumped into the air. Placing his hands together, he shouted the words,

"Ka…Me…Ha…Me…Ha!!!" Goku fired the Kamehameha at Vegita, using all his strength but Vegita just deflected it. Goku had no way to defeat his opponent now unless he also transformed. Powering up was a second nature to Goku as his hair changed to gold and his eyes turned green. His aura was bigger than ever and this time he was stronger than he had ever been. Vegita looked on, his long hair swaying in the wind.

"How did Kakarotto achieve this level of power?" he asked himself. The battle waged on yet again, Goku fighting stride for stride with a level of super Saya-jin above that of his own. Goku could see that Vegita was tiring, his energy slowly ebbing away from him. He felt sorry for the Saya- jin prince, with all the pride that he had lost, every punch he had taken was making him hate himself even more.

Finally the intense battle broke off. Vegita struggling to stand while Goku was still at a good level of energy. Vegita had been beaten. His hair changed back to normal, his body returning to it's normal size. Then he finally spoke.

"Kakarotto, finish me now."

"What?" asked Goku in shock.

"Kill me, take the battle for your own. Your are the strongest warrior in the universe. I told you before that your feelings would be your downfall."

"And I told you that your pride would be yours. I can't kill you Vegita, not after knowing the good that is inside you. Let that goodness out again and you shall become stronger."
