Goku scoured New Namek, trying to find more information on Sevrin and his demonic power. It had been some time since he'd been so unnerved and excited. He went back to Zolan, whose wounds had healed fully. He smiled at that. "I'm glad you're better.'

Zolan nodded. "Thank you," he said, "You're concern honors me."

Goku smiled. "Zolan…listen…I don't do this often…but I need more information…do you mind if I read your thoughts real quick?"

Zolan nodded. "Go ahead," he said, "If it will help you track that monster, I'm all for it."

Goku focused on Zolan's thoughts and witnessed the fight in perfect clarity. He watched as Sevrin went from his normal form of blonde hair and pale skin into a hideous gray creature with black eyes and black veins. Goku could feel the power, it was truly intense. Goku noticed something similar about Sevrin. Sevrin indeed had Cell's power, but he noticed Vegeta's over all intensity…it made sense, Cell had Vegeta and the other's cells, even his own…but how could someone appear and just take all that power and meld it so easily? In all his years Goku had never seen anything like it. He stopped watching the battle and he focused back on Zolan. "Thank you. His power is remarkable…you did well to face him alone."

Zolan grinned. "Coming from you that's one of the highest compliments ever paid to me."

Goku looked to Moori, who still seemed unnerved. He walked over to him. "I'll find him," he said, "But I don't want to rush into battle with him. If he's that strong now, he's only going to get stronger. I want to train first."

Moori nodded. "I know you want to be prepared, but I fear if he's left unchecked his power will grow even further…I think you should find him soon."

Goku nodded. "Of course…" Goku couldn't get over the doubt that clouded his mind. I'm excited for this challenge…but this stranger is so strong…he beat Cell and Freiza with ease…he escaped HFIL…I can't feel his ki…could he be on Earth already? He sounded like he was close…I have to get to Vegeta…but he won't believe that…If I give them a look at Sevrin they'll know who to look out for…but if he disguises himself…what are they going to do? I have to get back to Earth…He looked next to Moori and found Supreme Kai, who still wore a worried expression. "I agree with Moori," he said, "The sooner we find him the better."

Goku nodded and walked to Supreme Kai. "I'm ready to go back to Earth when you are."

Supreme Kai nodded. "Very well." They vanished, leaving Moori to wonder about the fate of the one who attacked his people.

Rivals

Goku arrived at the Capsule Corp. Building. He looked for the training sphere that Vegeta always stayed in. He opened his senses and found Vegeta to be training, as usual. He walked in. "Vegeta!" he shouted.

Vegeta was in his Super Sayian form and dodging a series of blasts from battle robots. He used a ki shield to destroy them. He cast an angry eye to Goku. "This had better be good Kakarot!" he flew down to him. "what is it?"

"We have a problem," Supreme Kai said.

Vegeta looked him over. "You've always got a problem," he said, "I meant Kakarot."

Goku rolled his eyes. "Geez, you don't have to be so rude. Show him so respect…"

"I'm busy Kakarot…"

Goku nodded. "Alright, alright. A powerful fighter has defeated Cell and Freiza in Otherwold and took their power."

Vegeta's eyes widened with interest. "Oh really? Who is this fighter?"

Goku could only smile, the warrior in Vegeta never turned off. "His name is Sevrin, and if you'll allow me, I'll project what he looks like to you."

Vegeta shook his head. "Oh, no. I don't want you anywhere near my mind! You're soft ideas would weaken me permantly!"

Goku sighed. "Come on Vegeta," he said, "Please? You may even see a weakness in me…"

Vegeta looked him over. "Get it over with."

Goku brightened. "I'll make it quick." He project the fight of Sevrin and Zolan to Vegeta and Vegeta smiled.

"Well, well…I like his form…he's got speed too…"

Goku stared at him. "Vegeta...this isn't a sparring match…"

Vegeta's usual arrogance took over. "Just because Cell, Frezia and some weak Namekian couldn't beat him doesn't mean I can't!"

Supreme Kai looked him over. "He also defeated Pikkon…"

Vegeta looked him over. "Really? That is impressive…"

Goku nodded. "See Vegeta? He's strong! I want you to know what he looks like incase he come back! I want to talk to King Yemma and see what else I can find out…I just wanted to keep you in the loop."

Vegeta nodded. "Good. I'll keep an eye out. If he comes here I'll kill him and prove that I'm better than all of you! Now leave me! I'm going to train even harder to kill him quickly!"

He flew back and barked for more battle robots to attend him. A small troop appeared out of the walls. Goku motioned for Supreme Kai to follow and he did.

"Goku," he said, "Aren't you going to tell Piccolo and the others?"

"No…" he said, "Not yet. I want to make sure he's not here first…I mean…it may be a trick…I don't know if he's even coming to Earth…"

Supreme Kai nodded. "I understand. You want to speak to King Yemma?"

Goku nodded. "And Pikkon, Pikkon sounds like he almost beat him…if I can follow his steps I can beat him too."

Supreme Kai nodded. "Sensible. Ready?"

Goku nodded. "Let's go."

In a flash they were at King Yemma's throne. King Yemma smiled as he saw Goku. "Ah, just the man I wanted to see."

Goku smiled and bowed. "It's good to see you too," he said. "King Yemma."

King Yemma called Pikkon in and he walked in. Pikkon looked Goku over and gave a small smirk. "Goku."

Goku nodded. "Pikkon."

King Yemma looked them both over. "I trust you know the situation?"

Goku nodded. "Supreme Kai told me. Sevrin has to be stopped."

Pikkon nodded. "He's strong…and crafty."

Goku looked to Pikkon. Pikkon was one of his most difficult opponents by far, and for someone to give him trouble like that was unnerving. "What can you tell me about Sevrin?"

Pikkon shrugged. "All I can tell you is that he didn't have full control of the power he took from Cell and Freiza. He was strong, and fast, but his lack of knowledge made him easy to counter."

Goku nodded. "How did he defeat you?"

Pikkon narrowed his eyes at him. "He didn't defeat me, he escaped me. Actually…he used the same move you used against me in our battle during the Otherworld Tournament."

Goku staggered back. "What?"

Pikkon nodded. "Yes…I fell for it twice…"

Goku shook his head in shock. "He used my move?"

Pikkon looked at Goku. "He used it as easily as you did. Whatever he took from Cell he took from you too. Cell is comprised of you and the others…right?"

Goku bowed his head. "Yes…I didn't think he could use my moves so easily…not to mention Cell's…"

Pikkon nodded. "I'd appreciate if you trained with me. I'd like to be prepared if he comes back again."

Goku almost said no…but he knew he had to train…and if he could learn something from Pikkon, it would be a win, win."

Goku nodded. "I'll train with you. Supreme Kai, could you train with us too? I'm sure you'd like to be prepared too."

Supreme Kai nodded and they all vanished to the old Tournament grounds.

Pikkon powered up, followed by Goku, who was then followed by Supreme Kai. Pikkon led the charge on Goku, who countered with ease. Goku deflected Pikkon's attack and met the Supreme Kai's blows with mild difficulty. He'd forgotten that The Supreme Kai's powers were almost equal to his SS2. He back flipped and fired a barrage of blasts at the pair.

The Supreme Kai raised his hands and used his Shockwave to send the blasts in others directions. Pikkon gave him some hard blows, but he vanished and hit him with a combo of his own, sending him into Goku.

Goku used his instant transmission to avoid Pikkon and appeared behind The Supreme Kai. He hit him with an elbow to the back of the neck and sent him flying forward. He charged at him and fired another barrage of blasts. Each blast hit the Kai with devastating force, sending him crashing to the ground. Goku flew down to help him up when Pikkon met him with a vicious kick, sending him across the arena.

Pikkon followed Goku and continued the assault. Goku blocked the blows and cartwheeled out of the way. He landed on his feet and used some of his ki power to send him back a few feet. He made a rushed version of his Kamehameha wave and shot it at him. Pikkon smiled and grabbed the rushed blast and threw it to the left. Little did Pikkon realize that Goku followed the blast and hit him with a hard punch to the face, sending him dazed and confused to the ground. Goku was about to help him up when he felt a presence behind him. He turned and the Supreme Kai hit him with a vicious combo and pummeled him into ground. Goku blocked what he could, but the Kai's blows were strong and well executed. He back flipped away from him and ceased his attack. "We all have lots of work to do…our current power is not enough…"

Goku nodded. "Our reaction times are too slow…"

Pikkon could only agree. "I agree. I must meditate on the events of the day…I invite you to do the same. It may guide us to a solution."

Goku thought back to Vegeta. …is he really strong enough to stop him if he does try to attack Earth? I can't return to Earth until I'm ready…but what if Vegeta can't do it? I'll have too…Goku cursed the doubt that flowed around him and joined Pikkon in mediation.
