Bulma and Goku continued to frantically search the halls of the palace in hopes of finding Vegeta.
“Wait, Bulma, I sense something…it's faint, but I think it is Vegeta's ki. This way!” Goku pointed and took off in a sprint.
Bulma was trying desperately to keep up with him. “Goku *puff* if his ki is faint, doesn't that mean he's injured?”
“Nah, there is a slight difference between a damaged ki and a healthy ki. His is health, but someone does not want us to find him.” Goku was oblivious to the fact that Bulma was falling behind as he only ran faster.

“Leiko, what's the matter with you? You're a saiyan! You don't need this fool! You take orders from no one other that the king of all saiyans!” Vegeta tried to call her bluff as Leiko walked towards the center of the room and stood in her fighting stance.
“Dear, dear Vegeta. You don't understand. The king of all saiyans is dead and you will never take his place. Things are better with Lord Zennion…he saved me from destruction. Come on Vegeta, join us. Join us and finally be happy.” Leiko began circling around Vegeta while maintaing her stance.
“Leiko, this isn't you. You're crazy. Come on! Snap out of it!”
“Oh, I'm going to snap something alright,” Leiko said as she leapt at Vegeta.

Goku sensed a surge of ki as he neared his destination. “Shit, we may be too late Bulma…I think Vegeta's being attacked.”
“Goku, we have to find him…you need to help him. Leiko is stronger than she let on. Didn't you sense that when she got pissed before?”
Goku didn't answer. They both knew Bulma was right. Goku stopped in front of what appeared to be a closet door. “This is it. They're in there.” Goku tried the doorknob and snapped his hand back. “Ow! There's something wrong with it. I can't get in like that. I'll have to try the kamehameha.”
Bulma stood back as Goku continuously blasted the door, but to no avail.

“Rargh!” Vegeta roared as he pushed Leiko off of him and gave her a quick kick to the stomach. Leiko countered with a blast of ki that Vegeta barely dodged.
“Give up Vegeta, you can't win. Just join us now and spare yourself the pain!” She grabbed Vegeta and threw him to the ground and sent a barrage of ki blasts down towards hom. They all hit Vegeta with deadly accuracy.
Vegeta slowly stood up and wiped a bit of blood from his lip. “Oh, it's far from over Leiko.” Vegeta let out a loud yell as he ascended to super saiyan.
A delighted laughter could be heard from the far end of the room. “Oh, this is simply perfect! This is going to be a better show than I thought. More tea!” Lord Zennion threw his empty cup at the servant nearest him.
“Ah, so you weren't lying Vegeta. You can become super saiyan. Well, consider this a late birthday present.” Leiko laughed maniacally as she, too, ascended to super saiyan.
“No! It can't be. No woman has ever gone super saiyan!” Vegeta glared at the golden glowing figure in the air.
“Yes, I am the first Vegeta. Lord Zennion helped me achieve the impossible. This is only another example of how wonderful it is with him. Now, prepare to lose.” Leiko dove down in an attack on Vegeta as the battle raged on.

“Goku! What's going on in there? I wish we could get in there and help him.” Bulma's tear-stained face looked up at Goku as his shoulders slumped. He had given up trying to get into the room. They were forced to remain outside and wait.
“I don't know Bulma. All I can tell you is that he's still alive, and I think he's now super saiyan, but so is she. I don't know how much longer he can hold out against her.”
