R'yak looked at the picture that Alice brought up on her monitor and he replied, "I'll see what I can do, first I need to have my computer take the image and analyze it."

He was just about to voice activate the computer on his gantlets when Wolf came into the lab and Alice gave him her serum. R'yak looked away not wanting to show any noticeable anger at the dark Saiyan's presence in the lab and he turned on his computer and uploaded the photo onto it. He then spoke to the computer,"Computer I would like for you to focus on the spacecraft in the photo and enhance the quality of the picture, also run a check on all known spacecrafts in your database to see if there is a match."

"Processing now sir" the computer replied. It took almost a moment but the computer had increased the resolution of the picture and the ship in the image was in full view now on Alice's monitor.

"All craft information in database has been checked, there are no matches found, this ship is an unknown" his said and R'yak was surprised. His people had traveled to many places throughout the galaxy and they had encounter many civilizations, but this ship was from a culture that R'yak's people had never seen or heard of. The question that R'yak asked himself was what was the reason for an unknown spaceship to heading to earth.

"Well I guess that means we have a visitor who we absolutely do not know" He said Alice as he looked at the picture and spacecraft inside it.

Kaliflur and violet put their hands on Orin's shoulder. Kaliflur didn't look to sure about this. "You can't honestly get us all the way to the lab instantly, can you? That's impossible!"

Orin smiled when Kaliflur doubted that he could get them back to Alice's lab and he replied, "Just wait and see"

He then put both his middle and index fingers on his forehead and focused his mind on the lab. Instantly they were transported from the mountain range and found themselves right in Alice's laboratory about a few feet from where Wolf, Ryak and Alice were standing.

"Instant Transmission is a technique that the legendary saiyan warrior Goku learned after he defeated the tyrant Frieza on Namek. For some reason he believed that the technique made your body turn into light and travel at its incredible speeds, but you really appear somewhere instantly, meaning that you could travel between here and another planet in an instant, but it's not very good for battle since it requires focus which is usually something that an opponent won't give you" he told Kaliflur with a smile.

---

R'yak was taken by surprise when Orin, Kaliflur, Violet and some other girl who did not recognize, suddenly appear out of nowhere. He had almost fired off a blast of energy out of reflex but he stopped himself and glared at them.

"By the stars, please refrain from appearing out nowhere like that in the future."

---

"sorry" Orin replied with a smile, he thought it was funny to give people a little bit of scare when appearing so suddenly and he would most certainly do it in the future.

After the Training Room AI disaster so long ago Glacier had been content to train on her own most of the time, coming back to the base ever so often to test herself in the gravity chamber, each time vastly exceeding her previous limits. The combination of gravity training, solo training, and inner meditation had helped her progress immensely toward regaining her former power. She was certainly not the most social of companions and therefore had spent little time with the rest of the group though from time to time chatted with R'yak to keep up on proceedings, as well as keep tabs on Wolf. She was getting near a breakthrough in breaking through the curse but had yet to break through that threshold, she could feel the hex losing some of its hold for the first time since it had been put on her so long ago. Still, the curse was infuriatingly persistent in its effects and it would no doubt still take a while to cast it off completely.

Returning from a trip into the wilds for training and inner reflection, Glacier headed into the lab where already quite a few people had gathered. "It seems rather stuffy in here." She commented as she strode in, her eyes glanced around at all who were in the area, of course the dark saiyan was there but she ignored them her eyes instead quickly focused in on the monitor with the alien spacecraft. As a daughter of the World Trade Federation she had a feeling she knew the design, but the fact was there were so many different alien species she never had quite gotten to learn about all of them, even those affiliated with the now non-existent Trade Federation. "Odd, not a ship design I am familiar with." She narrowed her eyes and she could not help but twitch her tail a bit in a slight mixture of suspense and excitement.

As a species that could survive in the vacuum of space Glacier considered going up to intercept the craft but if a fight broke out it would draw unwanted attention to Earth. The enemy was already coming but they certainly did not want more enemies to come. "Well no matter, let's just keep an eye on it for now."

Alice frowned slightly when R'yak said they knew nothing about the alien craft, her eye's widened slightly when Orin had appeared in the lab with the others, she let them speak as she turned back to her monitor only to hear Glaciers voice, to her disappointment, she didn't knew anything about this craft ether
.
Amber's eye's widened as the vast landscape turned into a laboratory, she looked around as she listened to Orin explain the technique he used
"Neat..." she said with a slightly amused smile before a voice led her eye's to R'yak
"huh, since when did raccoons stand on two legs?" she asked no one in particular as she lightly folded her arms
.
Alice grew a panicked look as she got some readings from her computer, she slowly breathed in before turning to everyone
"listen up everyone, we don't know what's inside that ship or if anything is inside it at all, but my readings calculate that the ship could arrive at the edge of our solar system within a day or an hour, for all we know it could be the dark saiyans in a new ship or something completely different... in ether case we need to be ready" Alice said in a serous tone
"you should all rest until the alien craft reaches the edge of the solar system" Alice then turned to Amber
"you, Amber was it?, I need to know, will you fight with us?" she asked the her, Amber looked to Dr. Briefs for a few seconds before smiling
.
"well, I got nothing better to do, why not?" Amber said with a grin
.
"good, in the meantime I'll try to determine where this craft will land, when I have something I'll let you know so you can intercept it" Alice said with a smile a she turned to go to her office
.
Amber shrugged and looked to a park of the wall to lean up on

Wolf looked toward the monitor, eyeing the strange craft, this wasn't of Dark Saiyan origin, even if it had been one of his kin, they'd die like any other. The masquerading Saiyan growled to himself, unhappy with the lack of knowledge his so called allies had. The fact that this possible enemy was making its way to earth, resting and conserving its strength sickened him. "You can all sit here like idiots, I'm leaving..." He said seriously, flying out of the building and straight toward the strange craft.

R'yak was glad to see Glacier back at the lab, it meant that he wasn't alone in still being suspicious of Wolf. When he heard Amber's remark about raccoons standing on two legs, he saw that she was looking at him and he was confused, he had been on earth a while but he hadn't researched much about the animal species that inhabited this planet and he didn't know what raccoons were.

"What the hell are you talking about? What are raccoons?" he asked her with a confused voice. He then saw Wolf take off again going to see what the craft was and making pathetic insults at them once again.

"I don't know if you're smart enough to understand this but the craft is far away in space! You'll suffocate without oxygen and die a very idiotic death saiyan!" he shouted at the Dark Saiyan as he departed. These saiyans were so rash and arrogant it was a wonder how they could have survived this long and weren't totally extinct.

"Racoons are a primitive mammal commonly found in forests around Earth. They do bear a strong resemblance to your species." Said Violet, in a matter of fact way.

---

Kaliflur couldn't stop staring at Glacier. There would be no honor in turning on a friend, but the unbridled rage she felt for Glacier's whole species was too much for her to do a good job of concealing. She stayed silent for now. She didn't want to say anything she'd regret.

Cole landed in the middle of the badlands, he stretched his arms out and took off his armor, it stood up right in front of him and looked at him," Well were to now old buddy," he spoke to his armor. The armor suit put one of it's arm around Cole's shoulders and put a hand in front of them both and pointed to the sky, as if it was saying " The sky's the limit " suddenly the armor turned to Cole and poked him in the chest and pointed to back where they flew from," So, if the world's in danger then that's them that have to save it not me." Cole responded to the armor.

The armor pointed to the ground then to both Cole and it's self quickly, Cole put a hand on his chin and sighed," Your right if they screw up, then the world's gone, and we won't have a planet to really stomp around on if they mess up, oh wow, I'm lonely, I'm talking to my gear, okay let's go find these guys." seeming almost exited the armor jumped onto Cole and covered him instantly, the two blasted up into the air and flew high up to get a look around to see if they could find any of the people that were in the fight before with Amber.

Approaching Earth

The large chunk of debris that had once been attached to a ship that had housed one of the strongest and most feared tyrants in history slowly drifted through space. Lights flickered on and off as more and more power was redirected to the area that had to be kept online at all costs. Even as power was redirected, a figure that had been lost to the universe for years fought to break free of the horrible machines that had been forcing him to stay alive for years in a sleep filled with nightmares. He had dreamed for years. Dreamed of Vengeance against the one who had destroyed his world. Dreamed of finally avenging his lost brothers and sisters who had died with Planet Vegeta.

But he couldn't. At least at one point he couldn't. Now the machines were finally weakening after years of losing power and now even as the machines failed, his body and mind began to take back control. As the ship slowly began to drift closer and closer to Earth's atmosphere, Kires's eyes began to slightly twitch.

There was a second astral body approaching. Everyone else was preoccupied with the craft, or the power level, but Violet noticed everything in her field of vision, including the reading on one of the far monitors. It was small, insignificant, maybe a meteor, but Violet wanted to make sure. Uncertainty worried her. She slipped out of the lab without anybody immediately noticing.

---

It was part of a ship. An outdated model of the kind Frieza used to come to Earth, judging by the schematics in her databanks. She blasted her way inside whilst it was still in the atmosphere. The differences in oxygen levels and pressure did not affect the Android as she search the vessel. There wasn't time for a full search, so she determined which part of the ship this was, searched the east bridge, and the lab. There was most likely nobody on board, but it was in Violet's programming to search for life forms in any derelict vehicle, especially ones in imminent danger. There was only one place left to look where there might be a sign of life; the stasis pods. Most of them were empty. The ones that weren't had malfunctioned due to the loss of power and the life forms inside perished long ago.

As she was scanning each one, she found a life reading. It was only one, and a faint one, but it was enough. She had to get him out of here before the craft got to hot, or crashed, or completely burned up. She smashed the glass and pulled the door off it's hinges completely, lifted Kires over her shoulders and then blasted her way back out. Once outside the craft, she turned around and fired a very powerful ball of ki which obliterated the remains of the ship, so that it would not do any damage to the earth below.

She landed, and set Kires down, beginning to perform a quick medical check. He appeard to be a healthy Saiyan, suffering no immediate or long term ill effects. She gently shook him, and spoke in a loud yet soft voice.

"Wake up. Wake up. Can you hear me?"

"Wake up. Wake up. Can you hear me?"

In his mind, Kires was back on Planet Vegeta. He saw so many of his brothers and sisters in arms. He had left when he should have died with his world. He should have never become a wanderer. He could have stayed and possibly made a difference against Frieze when the tyrant had destroyed his world. He had left Vegeta for two reasons: He did not agree with the way of life the Sayians had adopted. He did not like the idea of wiping out the inhabitants of planets simply because someone told them to. The second reason was that for all intents and purposes was that he was for all intents and purposes...alone. He may not have agreed with the choice of life the sayians had taken but he had certainly not wanted to see his race wiped out.

"Ugh..." He muttered as the dream world turned to black as for the first time in many many years his eyes opened.

The first thing he saw was a blue sky. The second more immediate thing he saw what was apparently a woman standing above him. She didn't look like a member of Frieza's guards. This didn't look like Frieza's ship.

"Yes..." He said in a raspy voice, his voice not having been used for many many years. "Yes I hear you."

He looked to the left and than to the right.

"Where is Frieza?"

The woman had short purple hair, and eyes that were unsettingly and unnaturally white, like looking at water through six inches of transparent ice. She was wearing khaki shorts, black army boots, a green top with some sort of red angular symbol on it, though it was obscured by the tanned leather poncho she was wearing over everything else. She had a face that may have looked very pretty with make-up, but was a little too long to be called so, and the elements had sure taken their toll on her skin.

She shone a light into his eyes as he speaks, and when he'd finished, replied.

"Frieza is dead. He's been dead a long time. There seems to be a lot you missed out on. That makes two of us."

She stood up and offered a hand to help him up.

"Can you walk?"

"Frieza is dead. He's been dead a long time. There seems to be a lot you missed out on. That makes two of us."

She stood up and offered a hand to help him up.

"Can you walk?"

Kires could hardly believe what he was hearing. The Tyrant was dead?! That was the best news he had heard in many many years! Of course, it was the only news he had heard in many years so...but still. It was an amazing thing to hear. That the destroyer of your world had paid the price for what he had done, for the countless lives he had destroyed. His world had been avenged. It hadn't been by him but he didn't care. Frieza was finally dead.

"Yes." He said as he slowly got to his feet. He was a bit unsteady at first but he was quickly getting his balance back. "Yes I can walk. Tell me, who was the one who finally defeated Frieza? Was it one of my own kind? Or did he finally make someone stronger than him angry?"

Alice glared at Wolf in annoyance before he left but before she could say something Violet left as well, ignoring the conversation going on about R'yak looking like a raccoon Alice looked to her monitor and her eye's widened slightly as one of them locked onto an object going through atmosphere
"how'd I miss this approaching Earth?..." she asked herself as she watched, just then she seen something fly into it then fly out of it just seconds later, before blowing up the burning object
"what?..." she raised a confused brow before zooming in on the image, it cleared up until she could clearly see Violet and what looked like another saiyan
"these saiyans just keep falling from the sky" Alice said with a weak smile as she concluded that's why Violet left, a brief alarm went off before it was brought up on the main monitor Alice's eye's widened in surprise, the ship that was detected earlier had arrived way faster then it was estimated to, a bright blue shockwave expanded vertically in a ring from behind the craft as it left warp speed before slowly fading away, what kept Alice surprised is how fast it was still going, it was traveling at light speed, within an hour's time it would arrive at Earth
"this is not good..." Alice said as she started typing commands on the keyboard, she then turned to everyone left in the room
"that craft, it's going to arrive here soon, it was going faster then my computers calculated" Alice said seriously as she looked back to the monitor as it zoomed in on the ship moving at light speed, the computer began calculating landing zones where the ship might land
"just encase Wolf can't handle this, I'll keep trying to calculate where it might land, you all should take some senzu serum, just to bring you all up to 100% if the situation goes bad..." Alice said as she reached into a drawer under her keyboard and grabbed some vials with clear green liquid in them at the tip of the vial there was a lid that would pop of easily, under the lid was a needle to inject the serum quickly, she then tossed them to everyone in the room, she then turned back to her monitor as continued to work
.
Amber caught the vial and looked at it, she did feel sore from her fight with Wolf and Orin she shrugged and popped off the lid to it, then stuck it in her shoulder, she grit her teeth slightly as the green liquid was injected into her system, within seconds all her injury's were gone and she felt like her power was increased if only slightly so, she then incinerated the vial in her hand and grinned
"I feel pumped up! I'm ready to fight some aliens!" she said as she blasted out of the lab Alice sighed as she heard this and continued to work
.
as the ship speed towards earth the occupant inside slowly opened his eye's to see the yellow star, an automated voice then spoke to him
"Joveke, we have arrived at the randomly selected solar system, one planet has the ability to support life, primitive lifeforms inhabit it" the voice said to Joveke as looked down to his hand which was laying over his injury, he lifted it up and turned his hand towards himself to see orange blood covering it, he then lost strength in his hand and let it fall to his side as he let out a sigh of relief
.
"I made it..." he said with a weak smile as he closed his eyes, then an alarm sounded forcing him to open his eye's wide in panic
"what is it?" Joveke exclaimed as best he could
.
"warning, high energy signatures detected on primitive planet" the voice said to him
.
"well.... I'm sure 'll be able to-"
.
"warning high energy signature detected behind stern" the voice warned, Jovekes eye's widened in fear as he dared to say
.
"bring it up on the main screen" just as he asked the computer did so, then he saw it, the thing he ran from, the being that single handily destroyed his planet, it had chased him, he could see a long tail of energy behind it, it had followed him through warp speed, ready to finish the job it had started, it glared at the silver space craft ahead of it
"no...." Joveke said in disbelief, the computer then took it off the main screen, and ahead of him Joveke could see earth
"I lead it right to them..." he said gravely as his eye's widened in guilt, then they closed before opening with a look of pure rage, rage for his people who all died at the hands of the monster that followed him
"No, I will not let you do to them what you did to us!" Joveke exclaimed at he got the strength to reach towards the ships controls
"computer, bring all weapons and defenses online, we're going to lead that monster away from this world, if it kills us" Joveke said as he grit his teeth
.
"bringing weapons and defenses online" the voice said as the ship banked right, weapons on the outside of the ship powered up as they locked onto the being approaching them and a light orange glow covered the ship as it's shields power up, the being stopped it's approach as it watched the ship quickly turn around, it seemed to grin as it seen the weapons come online, as the ship closed on the being, the three main weapons began to hum before firing blasts of energy faster than the speed of light, the being didn't move as each hit home, a massive cloud of fire exploded out from the impact, but out of the smoke flew the being with it's eye's glowing red, it wasn't fazed from the attack, Joveke grit his teeth as the weapons powered up again, as the being flew closer high powered laser weapons opened fire, the being evaded them effortlessly as it charged up a crimson orb of energy and threw it at the ship, Joveke's eye's narrowed as all weapons on the ship took aim at the oncoming attack and opened fire, but nothing seemed to stop it as it slammed into the ships shields and exploded, the shield generator was overloaded and exploded from the energy, the ship shook violently as alarms went off, the ship was flying a light speed while the being chased it towards the edge of the solar system
.
"that's right, follow the leader you mindless machine" Joveke said through grin teeth, just then he slammed into the controls as the ship came to a dead stop, Joveke pushed himself off the controls and looked out the window with terror, there in front of the ship was the being holding the ship with both hands, glaring through the window back at Joveke, then Joveke grew a look of anger as he punched in the commands for the ships main gun, right where the being was opened up a panel that reviled a large cannon, the machine looked down to it then up to the alien as it began to charge up
"from my race to your face, drop dead demon..." Joveke said with a death glare to the machine as he pushed the firing mechanism, the machines eye's widened as it looked back down to the cannon, a light brighter then any star then flashed as a massive plume of plasma exploded out, consuming both Joveke, the ship and the being, the explosion could easily be seen from Earth in the day, people looked up as a second star shined in the sky, it lasted for a few minutes before slowly fading away
.
Alice was working on landing zones when she heard murmurs from other people in the facility outside her lab, they sounded fascinated, Alice looked towards the door before she looked back at the monitor, then she grew a confused look
"what? where'd the ship go?" she asked as she zoomed out then zoomed back in on where it used to be heading
"this doesn't make any sense... what happened?" she asked no one in particular as her computer tried to scan the solar system for the craft, but nothing turned up
"I guess.... it's gone...." Alice said as she tilted her head, slightly disappointed
.
near Pluto there was a faint cloud of smoke that was slowly dissipating, there was nothing left of the ship, but near the center of the cloud hovered the being from before, completely undamaged, then suddenly it's eye's turned on, glowing a deadly red, as the being righted itself it looked around, in it's vision it's target was destroyed, then it's view looked toward the star, it's view then zoomed in, and continued to do so until it centered on a little blue planet, the being drone out an evil chuckle as it blasted off toward the planet that was rich with life for it to destroy, it would be there in a matter of minutes
.
back on Earth in Alice's lab, Maximus trained against a cell clone in over 1000 G's, trading blow for blow, doing his best to fight without using his overdrive, it was so hard to move, to focus and to fight at the same time in this gravity, each strike had the impact strong enough to shatter mountains and released shockwaves powerful enough to dent the floor, walls and ceiling, steam vented from Maximus's body as he jumped back from the cell clone to get some breathing room, but as soon as he did the clone appeared behind him, Maximus turned around and grabbed the clones kick then brought his elbow down on the clones leg effectively breaking it and snapping it off, then it went down hill from there, with each move the clone drew closer to defeat, after a few seconds the clone was lying on the floor, glaring up at Maximus, he charge up a beam of energy and fired it into the clones head destroying it, steam vented out from Maximus's body as he walked up to the controls, increasing the gravity and sending in another cell clone, beginning the process again
.
as Amber flew across the land she realised that she had no idea where the ship was going to land, she felt a little embarrassed, but then came up with an idea, Wolf seemed to know where he was going, so she closed her eye's and did her best to focus on his power level, a few minutes passed by before she opened her eye's and flew off in the direction Wolf was

Kaliflur took a vial of the serum, and injected it into the crook of her arm without so much as flinching. Her strength had instantly and fully returned to her, and then some! This was so much better than the healing pods on her old moon! But the fact that the ship had disappeared had worried her. She'd seen similar things a lot in her time roaming the galaxy. The ship had definitely been destroyed by something a lot more powerful, and It couldn't have been shot down from earth, or she'd have sensed something.

"It must have been destroyed," she cautioned everyone in the lab. "There's a bigger fish out there, and it just ate the smaller one."

---

"It was a Saiyan," said Violet to Kires. "Officially, the rumor around the galaxy is that he was slain on Old Namek by a Saiyan called Kakarot, but the truth is he survived that battle, and was killed by a half-blooded Saiyan named Trunks Briefs right here on this very planet, as was his father, King Cold. His brother Cooler, however, was killed by Kakarot. That was on New Namek."

Violet gasped in surprise suddenly, and looked up in the sky, before looking back down to Kires, nervously.

"This may be a little soon to say, but how good a fighter are you?"

Alice looked to Kalifur when she cautioned them, her eye's widened at the thought
"but how?!, there would have been debris, my computers should have picked up a second energy signal of some kind!" she said in a slightly panicked tone, then something appeared on screen, it was one of the deep space satellites, it had locked onto something approaching quickly, before the image could clear up the pin sized figure on the monitor grew huge in a fraction of a second before the signal was lost, Alice's eye's were frozen in a state of worry, after a few minute she came to her senses and rewound the footage, the only thing she could get was a extremely blurry figure with what might have been two red glowing dots
"that satellite was orbiting mars...." she said seriously as she grit her teeth
"whatever that was.... it's going to be here within minutes...." she said as she slowly sat in her hover chair, staring at the image on the monitor

Glacier caught the syringe without really bothering to glance at it. As she was doing her own brand of training before coming to the lab she was nowhere close to needing the the strange liquid yet so she quickly fashioned a makeshift satchel and deposited the vial for later. Glacier made sure to pay close attention to the images on the monitors. The ship was destroyed, Violet had found yet another saiyan apparently and now an unknown entity was heading for them. The entity could obviously transverse the harshness of space meaning it at least had all the advantages that the ice-jin had. As Glacier pondered what could be coming she put on her scouter and noted that whatever the thing was, would be arriving soon. The dark saiyan would be there to intercept the being but she doubted he alone would have the power to stop a being that survived the explosion of a space vehicle and flew away at a fair speed toward Earth. If she had access to her full power no doubt she could take on the entity herself but until she lifted the curse drastic measures would have to be taken.

Violet would be able to handle the newcomer so there was only one place where her services would be required. Amber had already left and now it was Glacier's turn. "I will go and intercept the entity along with the dark saiyan and Amber. Soon we will see just what kind of opponent this is." Whatever it was, it was clearly hostile in intent and they needed to take it down before the dark saiyan invasion that was imminent or they would be fighting a war on two fronts. Glacier fiddled with her scanner a bit and nodded when she was satisfied with the results, the distinct power levels appeared on the screen and she blasted off, out of the lab. It would not take her long to catch up.

Wolf continued to speed toward the ship, ignoring the other one, he sensed a weak power aboard the vessel so it was none of his concern. He knew who this wasn't, it couldn't have been Kental, this wasn't his ship, Nor was it his brother's, he steeled himself as he prepared himself to stop the ship. "What the...?!" The ship suddenly propelled itself without giving any indication of it it being powered or anything. He quickly evaded the craft before being hit, narrowly if that anyway. He watched the craft land itself, the warrior made his descent back to the ground before landing. Wolf stood and waited, his arms crossed as he watched the craft, he still had a slight thought that he was wrong about who was inside the vessel.

"This may be a little soon to say, but how good a fighter are you?"

Kires smiled darkly. Vegeta and his people had been avenged. Frieza had been killed by a Sayian, a race that he had thought defeated by his own hand. Kires could appreciate the irony and he let out a soft laugh as he turned to look at Violet.

"I'd say I'm an excellent fighter. Not to brag, but many of Frieza's solders met their deaths at my hands. I'm not saying I didn't enjoy it though. They assisted Frieza in destroying my world so they did have it coming."

He looked up as he sensed a power level up above him.

"If I may ask, what are we facing?"
