Chapter Nine - Pride Enraged - Vegeta vs. Kibeto!

Kibeto and Vegeta were both standing in the ring now, neither moving or in a fighting stance, as the announcer went over the rules yet again. Kibeto looked toward Shin who nodded. "Why don't you transform?" Kibeto asked Vegeta.

"What?! How..." Vegeta began as the announcer finished talking and stepped out of the ring.

Kibeto shook his head and Vegeta's face contorted in anger. "Fine then. You want to see me transform then I will."

"Vegeta!" Goku yelled. "We promi..."

"Shut up Kakkarotto!" Vegeta spat looking over at Goku and the others. "I never agreed to that, besides, the kids threw that all out the window when they transformed!" Vegeta turned back to Kibeto. The dust around his feet began to swirl and rise.

Goku looked at the gathered crowd and the numerous Cell and Hercule masks. /They'll recognize him from the Cell games for sure if he transforms..../

A gold light flashed from Vegeta a few times and then a golden aura erupted around him. His hair was golden and his eyes were green. "Happy now? So can we fight?"

Kibeto glanced over at where Spoppovitch, Yamu, and the androids were. The two bald men were starring at something in their hands. They began to move toward the ring when Mainframe held out a hand stopping them. The androids shook their heads and said something. For a moment they were uncertain but then nodded and sat back down.

Shin to saw this. /Who are those two? Why did they stop Spoppovitch and Yamu?/ He starred at them for a moment longer then looked out to Kibeto. ~I don't know why they stopped them, or who they are. Those two must know that Gohan's stronger. You'll have to fight Vegeta.~

Kibeto nodded and looked at Vegeta. "Seems we will be fighting after all." He said.

Vegeta smirked and then charged Kibeto who dodged the attack with ease. Vegeta growled and tried another punch but missed again. With a howl of furry Vegeta's hands and feet began to fly out at Kibeto with everything he had but the large man simply dodged without much effort. Suddenly a large fist lanced out and slammed Vegeta across the face sending him sailing out of the ring.

The Sai-jin Prince stopped and floated back into the ring. His feet touched down softly as he wiped some blood off his face with the back of a hand. The anger was even more intense on his face now. "That's it! Let's see how well you do against me after I transform to the next level!" he roared.

/WHAT!/ Shin's mind cried. /There's a level beyond Super Sai-jin!/

In the ring Vegeta was powering up again. The entire arena was shaking violently as blue lightning traced it's way up Vegeta's body. "Wow." Gohan said. "I guess this is what happens when you train non-stop for seven years."

Goku nodded as they watched wide-eyed as Vegeta finished the transformation.

"You lose." Vegeta said with a smirk and vanished. To the audience watching it looked as though Vegeta disappeared from where he'd been then re-appeared instantly where Kibeto had been with the large man coming out of know where and slamming into the ground. A moment later, after the announcer had regained his composure he stepped back into the ring, Vegeta had already left, as had Kibeto. "Amazing fight ladies and gentlemen, another amazing match! Vegeta is the winner and moves on to the next match! Up next it's Mainframe Vs. Shin!"
