Oleo tried to ignore the burning sensation in his boot. He knew that he couldn't look in the direction of the beam or he would be blinded. When the streak of energy subsided, he gazed back. His right boot was gone, and his foot was blistered from the heat. Suddenly, he noticed something. There was somebody flying at him, and it wasn't Aalayen. He did not know the person, in fact, didn't know that there were other beings on Earth capable of flight. He gazed confusedly for a few seconds, and then heard a screech of inrushing air. He shot downwards, towards the flying dot below.

Goku heard the blast charging, and suddenly felt a hand in his ribs. He was knocked out of the way as another beam roared past. Oleo drifted safely away from it. He looked down at the startled Goku.

"Run!" he yelled, "Get out of here before you get killed. Goku looked down as another whistle of air sounded in his ears. Oleo followed the Saiyan's glance, and saw a white-hot disc ripping towards him like a ten-foot saw blade. He dove, pushing Goku again. The disc, however, followed him, hissing as it reeled through the air. He let loose a tiny bubble of energy from his hand and deflected the disc, which sliced down a huge swath of trees before diving into the Earth's crust and disappearing. It resurfaced a few miles away, and then dissipated.

Suddenly, Goku was gone. He felt a fist in his ribs, felt them crunch, and sailed into the boughs of a scorched tree. Aalayen had gotten to him. Oleo tried to take her out, but his blow was countered. Aalayen wrestled him down to a clearing, and then pushed him against a tree trunk. She then opened a pouch at her hip and pulled something out. It was purple, round with a glistening shine. Oleo knew what it was. It was an ambrosia fruit, imparting immense power to whoever ate one. If Aalayen took a bite, even a nibble, it would be too much for Oleo to handle. He knew that he had to deprive her of it before she could eat it.

It was a life-or-death game of keep-away when Oleo swiped the fruit. He hurled it into the forest, hoping that the badly wounded Goku could save himself with it. Aalayen simply laughed, a cold and evil laugh that sent chills down Oleo's spine. She whipped out another ambrosia fruit and took a quick bite. A fierce wind bent the trees and sent twigs and leaves flying. Oleo knew then that he would have to simply evade her until he could do something. Perhaps the being called Goku had friends that could help him. Perhaps he could seize one of those fruits himself. However, at that moment, none of those things could be done.

In an instant, the game of keep-away had turned into a game of tag. Loser dies. Oleo knew that being a loser was the end of his beloved planet. Once Aalayen had drained his energy, she would suck up all the energy from the planet until everything withered and died as the planet cooled and froze over. Thus the need for Oleo's evasion. Aalayen bit again from the ambrosia fruit. The strange wind came again, tearing at the boughs of trees. Oleo bounded and floated through the forest, jumping off mountains when he could. Aalayen was busy eating, so Oleo rushed to try and help Goku. He flew, the air roaring with a sonic boom, in the direction that he sensed the fallen Saiyan was.

Goku sat, gasping and grumbling at the base of a tree. Oleo presented a small purple berry to him. He ate it, and the healing effect took place, similar to the effect of the Senzu bean. Goku stood up, and thanked Oleo.

"Now go!" the angry Oleo shouted. Goku refused.

"I'm not going to stand around while she destroys everything!" he responded. Oleo became angrier.

"Will you listen to me? She has been eating ambrosia fruits! Do you know what those are? They are fruits meant to be eaten by the gods so that the mortals cannot overpower them. She must have grown an ambrosia tree on some barren moon, and now she has some! She took you out, almost killed you with one blow! She's probably got ten of those fruits in her pouch! She'll be able to kill you by flicking you too hard! Get out of here! Now!" Goku was caught in a quandary. Though he knew that the argument was giving Aalayen time to power up, he did not want his sons, or indeed any of his friends to be killed. In the end, he decided to ignore Oleo's warning.

"No! I won't listen! I'm not going to be a bystander!" he screamed, and shot off, before Oleo could react. With the energy level in Goku building, Oleo wondered if he really could take Aalayen down. However, he still knew what the evil queen could do, and thus was caught in his own quandary. He shot off towards Goku's fiery trail.
