It was this thrilling, exciting, high speed sensation. His skin rippled, his mind seemed to gasp for air, and incredible luminous colors blurred by on either side, rushing in streaks of light. Then his feet were on solid ground, his black boots planted on a collage of color. His midnight hair swayed in the wind and his raven colored eyes scanned the area. His body still shook from the power he had just felt. Earth's most beloved Saiyan stood billions of miles from his home, on a planet unknown to most. He had just used his newly acquired instant transmission technique, hoping to catch the power he had just felt. Trees were laid about in piles of splinters, cliffs and boulders were now just heaps of dust. Small craters lay everywhere, as if an entire cluster of small meteorites had just showered the planet. Goku's face contorted in frustration.

"If I could have just focused more quickly. If I had more experience in this technique, then I could have caught him." Goku kicked a nearby stone in anger, demolishing it. "But whoa, what an incredible power."

Goku glanced once again at the carnage that lay before him.

"What a battle this must have been! Someone must have ticked that Ruo guy off bad."

The clouds above had been coming in quickly and were now turning dark. Goku felt a stiff, cold breeze slam against him.

"It's time for me to go. I can't believe he got away."

With that, he put his two fingers to his forehead.

"Now focus." He said aloud.

But just as he was getting ready to leave something caught his eye. He peered hundreds of feet away, a deep blue pile of something catching his attention. He lowered his fingers and began walking toward the pile. The clouds now began to release tiny droplets of freezing rain and they began falling on the area. Goku got nearer to the object and realized what it really was. He stopped, looking down at the almost life-less form of Vegeta. Another icy gust glided by, making Vegeta's body shiver. More lines of frozen rain began to break free from the sky, pounding into Goku's face as he stared down in shock. Here was the Prince of all Saiyans lying in a heap of dirt and leaves, as helpless as any child. Ruo had beaten the prince pretty good and had probably meant to kill him. Blood smothered his face in a half-dried gooey mess, now beginning to stream down the sides of his face because of the rain that splashed down on him. Bruises had made his eyes swollen and long gashes ran all over his body. Deep cuts had marked Vegeta along with his uniform, leaving it tattered and torn. The mighty Saiyan Prince had been crushed, by Ruo no doubt. Goku looked down at the beaten warrior, his eyes taking in the damage that had been caused. His brain told him that Vegeta was well deserving of this fate and that his bitter heart and senseless pride had brought him to this point. Yet Goku's heart, as it always seemed, was full of compassion and kindness for this being. Goku reached into his gi and pulled out a silver circle, no larger than the tip of his thumb, which appeared to be some kind of thick sticker. He placed the silver object on Vegeta's neck, and soon it was absorbed, disappearing beneath his skin.

"I don't have any senzu beans, but this Yardredian silicas will help heal you. You should be fine within a day or two." Goku spoke to the motionless form of Vegeta.

Goku then placed two of his fingers back on his forehead and disappeared.

His blond hair trailed him as he dodged Enoch's punch, countering with a strong kick to his shin. Enoch winced in pain as a thin stream of blood poured out of an old wound, staining his shredded training pants with a dark crimson red. The two Mayons were logged in sweat from their heads to their feet. Drops of the salty substance trickled into Enoch's wound, making him grimace.

"Okay guys, you've been training near six hours and sparring for the last one, how about you have something to eat now?" It was Jessie who spoke, shouting across the training arena to them.

Enoch's beautiful wife had been watching her husband's training with Jakor, leaving only briefly to make them a quick dinner.

"Yeah, me and mommy made some yummy food daddy." Laurie chimed in projecting her voice.

Enoch and Jakor looked at each other and nodded in agreement. Both warriors were covered in fresh scars and healing wounds from their encounter with Ruo two weeks earlier. They had been pushed to the edge of the cliffs of their lives, yet had somehow kept from falling off and losing precious life. Now the two warriors were constantly training, knowing that another battle was drawing near. They both wearily dragged their feet across the floor of the great training arena with small smiles pressed against their faces. They had pushed themselves to the limits every day, for hours upon hours, and they had started to see and feel the benefits to it. They walked across the floor, past cracks and chips in the "impenetrable material". The walls were graffitied with dark black marks left from intense energy blasts, more chips and cracks, and a round, shallow crater that Enoch's head had made. Laurie ran up to the exhausted warriors and grabbed her father's hand.

"I helped mommy make the sandwiches." She declared proudly.

"I'm sure they'll be very yummy." Enoch replied as he grinned down at his daughter.

For now he was enjoying these small moments. He kissed his wife as he finally reached her.

"Let's go eat."

And somewhere deep in space, there was an evil Saiyan eagerly awaiting to exact his revenge on the rest of the Mayons. Until then, he would master keeping his Super Saiyan powers in control, and go over his perfect plan in his head again and again, the perfect plan to destroy the tail-less Saiyan who Vegeta had called Kakarrot. He would destroy him first, then continue his vicious game of destroying the Mayon race, city by city…….

* Goku had saved Vegeta's life and spared whatever ego the prince had left after his humiliating defeat by leaving no trace of his aid, but Goku missed his chance to catch Ruo and now the time is drawing near. As the days wind down it appears as though Goku will have to wait until the evil Super Saiyan Ruo reveals himself on the planet Mayo on the night of the full moon. But even though the mighty Mayons are training and Goku is sure to be working on his fighting skills as well, do they have any chance? Will they be able to hold out against the merciless Ruo in a battle during the full moon? *
