To the west, Archis could sense the fight. The aura of Prince Tarble was readily recognizable, but there was a second Saiyan of which Archis could not recognize. He found it odd that two Saiyans would be on the same planet, much less fighting each other rather than fighting together, but then he was told the same thing had happened on the planet Earth. He had met Prince Vegeta there, and had learned the Prince was calling the planet home, but when he had first arrived there he had fought against another Saiyan himself: the warrior Kakarot, or Goku as he preferred to be called.

Archis knew that if either of the Saiyans ran across him, he'd probably be fighting for his life. He knew that the power level he held at his peak was equal to that of the unknown Saiyan, but he'd have to make sure to suppress his Ki long enough for Tarble to be taken out, or else he'd be killed.

Archis was from the planet Castor, a sister planet to the former planet Vegeta. The planet Castor was used a thousand years prior to Vegeta's destruction as a planet for banishment, as the King Vegeta at the time had been a Saiyan of softer heart, and had seen visions of his planet's destruction and his race's near extinction. For a nearly a thousand years, the kings of Vegeta sent their prisoners and troublemakers to Castor, instead of killing them off on the spot, until the last king Vegeta overthrew the law, saying it made the Saiyan race weak.

Saiyans of Castor prefer intelligence and strategy over brute strength, and so are considered to be inferior to the Saiyans of Vegeta. Archis was the Prince of Castor, the only son of his father king Castor, and the first prince in a hundred years to not be named Castor after his father. In fact, the rule of Castor, when his father died, would not be passed to him. Instead, it would go to one of his sisters: princess Castor.

The ruling class of Castor passed down their crown to the first born, regardless of gender, unlike most planets. Having a Queen instead of a King from time to time allowed the Saiyans of the planet to retain their compassion for other species.

Castor did not work for Frieza. The Saiyans of Castor had technology that far surpassed the Ki concentration techniques of Frieza, and the tyrant knew that if he pressured them, the Saiyans of Castor could completely destroy him. Instead, Frieza made sure that the planet remained unknown, to try to boycott the planet for their refusal to follow his lead.

And yet, they flourished.

Archis had been sent to Mobius as an effort to gain an alliance. His father had learned of a great power residing on the planet, and wanted to make friends with the leaders in an effort to gain an ally if they should happen to be attacked. Having witnessed the destruction of its sister planet, Castor wanted to become the peacekeeping planet of the universe.

Archis climbed out from the crater that his pod had created, and looked around. The scanner on his face showed that the greatest power levels were to the west, as noted before, centered in one group. Archis decided to look for the weakest power levels instead, knowing that in most planets, the weakest power levels had the greatest ruling capacity. The lowest level he could scan was to the north of him.

He thought about flying in the direction, or using that Instant Transmission move that he had been taught by Goku, but considering the power of the other Saiyans on the planet, he knew that doing so would be a bad idea. The minute his Ki was noticed, Tarble would come gunning for him. It was well known on Castor that Tarble held an immense, unfounded hatred for the Saiyans of Castor, and would forsake any opponent he had just to utterly destroy a Castor Saiyan. The only thing keeping the prince from destroying Castor was the means to do so were not yet in his grasp.

No, Archis would have to walk. He looked in the direction and could barely see a castle looming in the distance. Three miles he would have to walk to get there. He sighed, and began stretching. The seven month journey from Earth to Mobius had left him stiff. Once sufficiently loose, Archis began walking. He hoped that the ruling caste would allow him to speak with them, without raising an alarm.

Suddenly, he stopped. He turned towards the west, where the fight was, in time to see the entire area turn purple.

'Galick Gun,' he thought. Now he REALLY didn't want to get involved. Especially if the one using Vegeta's move was the unknown Saiyan. He could only guess at the level of Tarble's fury would be once it faded.
