"Dragon Ball Z:Heaven & Hell"

Chapter 4: 3b Trial & Torment

:::On Planet Earth:::

"Well sirs, it looks like everything is in order. You can start your new construction job tomorrow."

Son Goku and Vegeta exited the employment offices of "JR&R Construction Services" with merriment and a hint of honest relief.

"Phew Goku, I thought we would never find jobs! These are perfect for us. Did you see how quick that guy wanted to hire us? Heheh, guess us 'Martial Arts types' as he called us are wanted in these heavy duty jobs, even more so for you since you are one of the "golden warriors." spoke Krillin with a newfound hope on his outlook for life.

"Yeah, I guess so Krillin. It is kind of funny. This job doesn't seem very thrilling but whatever makes Chi Chi happy makes me happy. We could use some of the extra money to buy me that new video game thing...what do they call it.......it's by the technology company that the Briefs are worried about.....oh yeah! Microsoft! That new Xbox looks like fun.Hehe, but nothing beats a good fight. Man....it has been so long that I think that even with all this training I keep doing, I may be out of shape." said Goku.

"Yeah right Goku. If out of shape is being able to take on the universe single-handedly then sign me up! Yeah, I wouldn't mind having your power." said Krillin.

"At least Gohan is back in school after all the fighting with Majin Buu. Whether Chi Chi believes it or not, I am beginning to care about Gohan's future. He seems so much more grown up now, especially since that Videl has caught his eye."

"I tell you Goku, those two will be together and married before you know it. Imagine the party Chi Chi will throw them then." Said Krillin.

"It will be a big one ,that's for sure."

:::Alpha 14:::

An unconscious Vegeta wakes up in his latest homestead, the cave deep and secure near the Dead Sea.

"Hmmmmm........wha....where am I? What is this.........oh yes, now I remember. It was that Michael. But where is he now? Was it all a dream? Ouch! I can still feel the bruises on my side." Said Vegeta, lifting up his shirt revealing two giant, purple battle wounds. "No, this definitely was not a dream. I can already feel new power flowing through me. Once I am healed, I will be able to push the limit and finally cross over into Super Saiyjan three." said Vegeta, powering up to Super Saiyjan, lighting the room a bit, "Then, I will get my revenge on that 'holy' angel, and Kakarrot."

[I am still here Vegeta.] said Michael, revealing his light,brightening the room even further. [Now ,let me heal those wounds] and with wave of his hands Vegeta was back to full health.

A strange energy also began coursing throughout Vegeta's body, extinguishing his Super Saiyjan power, creating an even more glorious light, similar to Michael's.

"What.....is this....power? It is......TREMENDOUS! I FEEL.........INCVINCIBLE! AHAHHAHA THIS IS INCREDIBLE!"

[And very similar to Gohan's Mystic powerup, except as you can obviously feel, it comes with....emotional attachments as well. Vegeta, this power is from Alethueo to you, and can only be used for positive purposes. If you choose to keep it, your power will surpass any mortal so far, it is a twice that of which the most powerful warrior in the universe contains, stronger than that of Goku's and Mystic Gohan in one."

"Amazing...."

[This power as I said, come with a catch. You use it for Alethueo's purposes, and on top of it, you will receive immortality when the time to bestow it comes. There are several rules which must be followed. You must be willing to go through 3 tests-]

"Bring it on-"

[I was not done yet. This power will change the bearer of it. It will change even the most heartless criminals into.....well you will just have to see for yourself. A word of warning, use it for evil or personal gain, and you will lose all the power which you have treasured these past years. You will lose your place amongst the True God, your Saiyjan blood will be stripped and you will no longer be above other mortal men, but will be one once again. The choice is yours. Think about it, think hard Vegeta, for this decision is not meant to be taken lightly. In one standard earth hour I will expect to hear your choice.]

And as soon as he was there, Michael was gone.
