"Vegeta! Look!" Bulma gasped as she saw a disturbingly familiar object on the screen of the TV.

She had seen one of these before, they were Sayian pods. There was a new Sayian on Earth, for someone as evil as Freeza he hadn't done a very good job killing them all. She looked behind her and saw the door banging open and closed in the wind and a scorch mark by the door where he had taken off. Bulma frowned and de-capsulated her hover-car and flew to Kame island.
"Hey! Did you guy's see that report on TV? There's an new Sayian in town... oh." Goku trailed off as he landed on Kame Island seeing a black haired woman holding Krillen by the throat. Sophia pressed the button on her visor and got a power reading on the new comer that had just landed on the beach and was looking from her to Krillen. Her mouth almost dropped open when she saw his power reading.

"That's quite a Ki you've got there." She smiled then a thought struck her. "No wonder he wants you dead." She added. Sophia looked at the helpless man hanging off of her hand by his throat, she decided that she would enjoy a good fight and this guy might be up for the challenge. She threw him at a nearby tree and he gasped for breath. Goku looked at her; there was something about her that made him almost instinctively afraid of her, even before she had thrown Krillen against the tree.

He looked at the long black tail that was swishing behind her; she was obviously the previous occupant of the Sayian pod that had crash-landed in the road. She turned to face him, he watched her look him up and down. She was obviously an experienced fighter she was trying to figure out the best way to fight him, but she seemed so confident and he could only detect that this woman possessed about as much Ki as Bulma.

"Well are you going to fight me or will I just have to kill you anyway?" She asked him smiling. Goku normally hated fighting people but this woman couldn't be much of a challenge. He crouched slightly, ready to fight. She smiled and tensed wrapping her tail around her waist so he couldn't grab it and hurt her.

::Aww man! I wish I didn't have to fight this woman, I'm too much stronger... I'll hurt her! Maybe I could convince her not to fight, then I won't have to hurt her.:: Goku thought sighing slightly.

Goku watched her, she was definitely going to be the one to attack first, she had an aggressive stance while he had a defensive one. He was right she jumped towards him with surprising speed he dodged instantly but the second she landed she back-flipped towards him and snapped her legs around either side of his throat and rolled forwards sending him flying. Goku sat up and wiped a small amount of blood off of his lip, how had she managed to knock him down so quickly? He promised himself that he wouldn't make the same mistake again.

Goku jumped towards her about to deliver a huge punch to her stomach she jumped landed on his fist momentarily and flipped over him kicking him in the back and sending him flying once again. Goku caught his balance and spun around to stare at her in disbelief. Goku frowned, he was never going to beat her this way, her reflexes were too fast, almost too fast to be possible.

::Well she might be able to fight me but let's see how she handle's my Ki:: Sophia too a step back a mere second before Goku powered up to Super Sayian. She looked shocked,

::What.. I knew he had a high Ki but a super Sayian... That's just not possible!:: She thought amazed.

"Ka....me....ha....me...HA" Goku screamed letting loose his favorite Ki attack suddenly without warning Krillen dived in the way. Goku quickly swerved his Kamehameha upwards shocking some unsuspecting birds.

"KRILLEN! What's wrong with you?!" Goku shouted at his friend.

"I didn't do it Goku! I just got dragged over here!" Krillen explained completely confused and scared. Sophia smirked slightly, Goku paused, she looked so familiar... Sophia laughed and waved her hand the little man suddenly flew mysteriously backwards into the wall of his house and through it. Goku growled, she had tried to get him to kill his own friend. She waved a hand and the little man was knocked backwards into the islands only house. She smirked at him, Goku paused suddenly

::She looks so...familiar...::

Sophia raised her hand and sent Goku flying up in the air so his feet weren't touching the ground. Suddenly he felt himself being bombarded by what felt like a million punches all at the same time. She flicked her hand again and he felt to the floor broken and bleeding.

"I thought the legendary Super Saiya-jin would put up a better fight that this." Sophia frowned, she raised a hand and a tree decided to spontaneously levitate itself out of the ground and sharpen itself to a deadly fine point. It hovered over Goku's head, a question flitted into Sophia's mind.

"Do you have any children?" She asked softly; Goku nodded trying to sit up again. A pang of guilt strung inside of her, she had forbidden herself from doing this, but she had no choice.

"Look, I'm really sorry ok? I... just... I'm just following orders." She sighed, Krillen and Master Roshi came out of the house and threw themselves at Sophia, she barely noticed.

"Listen, I'm an assassin by nature but I have a policy against killing people with children as it happened to me when I was a child, I know what it's like to be alone and I hate to do that to children. But this time I have no choice.... I'm... really sorry." She sighed.

"You don't have to do this..." Goku coughed.

"No, I do... I'm sorry to sound so cruel but it's you or me here and I'll chose me everytime." Sophia replied.

"That's a shame you didn't use to." A voice from behind her said. Sophia gasped and spun around, Vegeta was standing there watching her... how had he managed to sneak up on her?

"Ohmygod! Vegeta!" Sophia laughed throwing herself at him and wrapping her arms around his neck. Krillen and Master Roshi almost had a heart attack at the sight of this.

"Who sent you to kill Kakarott? And since when do you take orders from anyone?" Vegeta asked smiling. Sophia flinched, Vegeta wouldn't be happy about this...

"He's back... Freeza's back"
