"Kahn! Wait!!" Krillin called out.

It took Trunks only a moment to decide what to do. He jumped into the gate.

"Trunks!" Bulma cried out.

"Something is strange about that gate just appearing like that. Could it be…?" Callista stated.

"They have the same idea." Vegito spoke, walking in the gate.

Making their decision, Jasper and Selene ran into the gate as well.

Now only five people remained to rescue Goten.

"Are they dense or something?! That gate could lead to anywhere!!" Bulma exclaimed.

The blonde android studied the expressions of the others before coming to her conclusion. "Krillin, let's go." Eighteen spoke as she stepped through the gate.

Krillin sighed and cried, "Wait Eighteen!" He too went through the gate.

"Shouldn't we have tested it out first to see where it leads?" Destiny stated.

"That was not necessary. They knew where it leads to." Rene responded. The female fusion walked into the gate.

"It can't be!? Can it?" Callista gasped.

"I believe that it is. We shouldn't keep the others waiting." Destiny replied. She and Callista stepped through the gate.

The remaining people watched with silent interest.

"Good luck." Chichi whispered.

"They're need it." Piccolo said.

Jasmine slowly opened her eyes. Everything was still a blur to her. She last remembered screaming as Katherine had shattered her arms and legs. Her blood boiled just at the thought of the young woman.

"Jasmine?" Gabriel's soft voice asked.

The second-in-command opened her eyes fully to see Gabriel's violet orbs watching her. "Gabriel? What happened?"

"Your arms and legs were completely broken beyond the help of our healing technology by Katherine. The doctors had to replace them with cyborg components. They say you're reflexes, speed, and fighting skills have been enhanced."

Jasmine sat slowly to adjust to her new body and flexed her arm. She could tell how different it felt. She stood to get a feel for her legs.

"So you fools allow Katherine to get healed and then send you home packing? I would like to know how she managed that. Anyway I have an idea for revenge." Vulcan spoke up as he appeared in the room.

Jasmine and Gabriel turned to see his stern grey eyes studying them.

"Let's hear it." Jasmine said.

"Very well. My plan will take about a week to prepare. I will work on something that will enable you two to go anywhere including Earth. Once I give you that Jasmine can capture the person of her choice. It should probably be someone close to her." Vulcan responded.

"What about that young man that I fought with? He reminds me of a race called the saiyans." Gabriel said.

"Saiyans? Didn't a tyrant named Frieza blow up their home planet? People have said they were no survivors." Jasmine said.

"Interesting. There might have been survivors after all. It said that Frieza was killed by a saiyan named Kakarot." Vulcan stated.

"Then it is agreed. You work on that device and we will find out anything about those survivors or that young man." Gabriel said.

"Excellent. Don't worry I will be around." Vulcan spoke, disappearing from view.

"Jasmine, you up to search the databases?" Gabriel asked.

"Of course I am." Jasmine replied.

Kahn panicked as he saw demons everywhere, guarding the huge castle. "H-Holy shit!" he breathed.

"Nice observation Kahn." Krillin said.

Kahn turned to find the others.

"Suppress your ki." Callista instructed softly.

"That's no fun. Let's make a nice welcome for these demons." Vegito said, taking off in the sky to the castle.

Kahn and Trunks shrugged and followed the fusion.

Eighteen, Krillin, Selene, and Jasper formed their group and followed the trio.

"So much for being discreet." Destiny muttered.

The last group flew off after them.

Vegito stopped and hovered while he observed the demons guarding the castle. They didn't seem to notice him, yet. "This should get their attention." He let loose a blast and killed the nearest demon that it touched.

The other demons hissed and looked to see where the blast came from. One demon flew closer to the trio and smiled. "Very clever intruder. That alone won't save you." it hissed.

By this time groups two and three joined the fray.

"Go. We'll cover you." Krillin stated. He and Eighteen fired a couple of blasts to prove their point. Vegito, Trunks, and Kahn flew towards the castle. Any demons that were in Vegito's way, he blasted them. Selene watched out of the corner of her eye Vegito blast open the entrance and nodded to Jasper. The two friends attacked the nearest demons.

Mars had many cameras scattered around this planet and his castle. He saw who the intruders were. "They have arrived as expected." He saw the two groups provide a distraction while the group containing Kahn, the lavender-haired half-saiyan, and a third he did not recognize. Although the guy reminded him of the savior of Earth and the prince of saiyans. Videl noticed this too.

"I believe that is another fusion master." Videl reported.

"Ah, they got smarter I see! You hear that half-breed! They're coming for you!" Mars exclaimed.

Goten didn't like to be chained up, but his oniisan was coming for him. He could see the monitors ahead of him and saw the other Z-fighters. Goten danced with joy silently.

As soon as they entered demons attacked them. Kahn punched one aside and kicked another. Trunks dodged their attempts to claw him and kicked one in the nuts. The demon stumbled back and Trunks fired a blast to knock it out. Vegito simply ki-blasted any demon in his path that dared to attack him. A path was cleared easily and they paused to think.

"Where do you think Goten is being held?" Trunks asked.

"Probably somewhere on the highest level." Kahn replied.

So they walked (Vegito chose to hover) up a set of grand stairs. A group of demons met them at the top. These demons carried staffs.

"Oh please." Vegeta scoffed.

The assembled demons rushed forward to attack, shooting from their staffs. Kahn and Trunks double-teamed to take out some of the demons. Kahn grabbed a wrist from two demons and smacked them together. Trunks grabbed their fallen staffs and tossed one to Kahn. The staff was gold and a ruby in the top half.

"Now I can really beat them up!" Trunks exclaimed.

Kahn simply nodded. Vegito sent several demons through the walls.

"They're too easy." Vegito retorted.

"Yeah they are." Kahn said.

Mars watched as the three took care of his staff-holding demons without any problems. "Don't worry they will be tougher." he said.

Trunks surveyed the huge hall they entered. No demons were seen. Not even one. This troubled Kahn. Vegito didn't seem worried.

"Come on, there have to be demons here! I have that feeling they are." Kahn said.

"Indeed. I don't sense them right now. I'm sure they're around." Vegito voiced.

The trio walked through the hall with no resistance. Once exiting the hall, they found another set of stairs to go up. Vegito stopped because something triggered his senses. A second later a blast came out of nowhere and struck Kahn. Kahn flew into the back wall of the hall.

"Duck!" Vegito yelled suddenly.

Trunks dived to the floor and saw a blast zoom over his head. "That was close." the half-saiyan breathed.

Kahn brushed himself off and saw that his gi was slightly singed. His soft blue eyes shifted to the left, when a hand seized his right arm. Kahn turned to stare into the haunting crimson eyes of a well-armored demon. "Let go of me or you'll regret it." the fusion threatened.

Vegito and Trunks recovered to find Kahn being held by a demon. "Well they decided to show their ugly faces." Vegito spoke.

The demon holding Kahn's arm snarled and hissed, "Get them!" Twenty-nine armored demons appeared in the hall and they all smiled.

Outside, Rene kicked one aside to find four coming at her. She raised one hand and fired a blast that killed them instantly. And yet more came. "They just keep coming!" Rene exclaimed.

"How many can there be?" Selene stated.

"Enough to keep us busy." Jasper said.

Eighteen blasted two dead and said, "This is stupid. Why are these demons so easy to defeat? Is this all he has?" The blonde android thought about it some more and then the truth dawned on her. "This Mars knows we're here and this is a trap." Eighteen spoke.

"W-What?" Krillin exclaimed.

"That is correct intruder." a new voice spoke out.

The two groups saw a bunch of well-armored demons smirking at them.

"Kahn, Vegito, and Trunks are in danger…" Destiny said.

Kahn looked at the demon holding his arm and the 29 others looking at Trunks and Vegito. A quick decision was made. He flared into SSJ, causing the surprised demon to let go. The demon found itself slammed into the wall. Vegito took the opportunity to power up to SSJ as well.

"Trunks, stay with Kahn. These demons will be toast." Vegito spoke.

Trunks understood and flew towards Kahn. Several demons flew to intercept the half-breed.

"Final Kamehame!" Vegito shouted. His blast torching them. Trunks made it over okay and he held the staff firmly. Kahn's eyes widened as he saw the demons that Vegito had blasted, stand back up. Their armor seemed to be torched.

"No way! That's i-impossible!" Kahn cried in disbelief.

Two demons tackled Kahn down on the floor. The staff in Kahn's grasp dropped to the floor. They gave two solid hits to Kahn, before he kicked them off. Three demons joined the two and attacked Kahn. Kahn ducked a kick to block another. He engaged in five-to-one combat. Trunks watched off to the side, doubts as Kahn took some abuse. He knew Kahn needed some kind of distraction and he was the person to do it. Twirling the staff once, Trunks slammed the staff into the nearest demon attacking Kahn. The demon hissed in pain and caused the other demons to turn to their comrade. Kahn took this opportunity to launch an attack. "Holy Judgment!" he cried. the white beam incinerated the five demons instantly. Vegito sent two demons into the wall and punched two others through it.

"Alright!" Trunks exclaimed happily. He made a notion to move, but found he was being picked up. In doing so he dropped the staff and it cluttered on the floor. Trunks looked over his shoulder to stare into a pair of crimson eyes. "Hey! PUT me down!!!" he shouted.

"Trunks!!" Kahn cried when he heard Trunks call and turned. The demon holding Trunks smiled.

"This boy will not be harmed. We are more interested in Kahn." the demon spoke.

Kahn froze entirely. His body wouldn't comply to move. Vegito found the demons had stopped and froze when he saw Trunks in the grasp of a demon. His blood boiled slightly, but remembered that Katherine had killed the two demons sent to the saiyans.

"You know its rude not to invite me." Vegito spoke, smirking.

"You and the boy are of no concern to us right now. Only this fusion matters." the demon holding Trunks responded. The demon tossed Trunks roughly at Vegito's feet.

Trunks got back on his feet and muttered, "You didn't have to throw me that hard."

Eighteen demons fixed their eyes greedily at Kahn. Kahn hated his odds at the current moment. He wondered how he could get Vegito and Trunks to help. *There's too many to take one-on-one. Perhaps the combination of my Instant Transmission and my holy sword? Never thought of using a combo like that before…This had better work…* Kahn put two fingers to his forehead and vanished.

*About time they use their brains.* Vegito thought.

Appearing right next to Vegito and Trunks, Kahn pulled his sword out. He nodded and Vegito used his Instant Transmission on Goten's ki. They disappeared. The demons wondered what happened to their target. Turning around they saw the other two were gone as well. "They must be heading for Master's throne room." one hissed. The 18 flew off.

Mars and Videl watched the monitors to find that Kahn, Vegito, and Trunks were gone. They looked up when they sensed three people in the room.

"What? I-It's them!" Videl exclaimed.

"Kahn, you're here! So is Trunks and both my daddy and Vegeta?" Goten cried out.

"Goten! You are okay!" Trunks breathed.

Vegito saw how Goten was chained up. "Its not nice to use little boys for hostages." Vegito taunted.

Mars just smiled. "I see. So who the hell are you?" he stated.

"You will regret that you asked me that Mars. Simply Vegito." Vegito replied.

"Interesting. I have only one demand before I shall hand over the boy over Vegito." Mars spoke.

"And what would that be?" Trunks asked.

"Simple. Kahn must revert to Gohan and Katherine. They must surrender before me." Mars answered.

"There is no way in HELL I'm doing that! You hand Goten over first!!" Kahn declared.

The leader of the demons had a feeling Kahn would object, so he snapped his finger. "Videl?" he instructed.

Videl walked over to the chained Goten and summoned a small ball of ki in her palm. She raised the ball of ki inches from Goten's face. "If you don't comply with Mars's demand, I will have the pleasure of killing him." she spoke coldly.

Cold fear filled Kahn's conscious and saw the fear in Goten's eyes. Kahn knew had little choice now in the matter. This was not the time to make mistakes. The fusion gritted his teeth and then threw a vicious glare in Mars's direction. "Seems like I have no choice." Kahn muttered, closing his eyes. Gohan and Katherine now stood in his place.

:: Damn him Gohan! ::

:: I know ::

They walked up to Mars with utter calm. Mars snapped his fingers and Videl made the ki ball disappear. She unchained Goten and picked him up. Videl tossed Goten over to Vegito and Trunks. Trunks hugged his best friend and Vegito knew something was up. It was confirmed when a shackle appeared in Mars's hand and it clamped on Katherine's right wrist and Gohan's left one.

"Fools! They're mine now!" Mars hissed.

Rage crossed over Gohan and Kat's features. They simultaneously kicked him in the shins, causing Mars to fall onto the floor. "Let's get out of here!" Kat hollered. She and Gohan managed to start dashing to meet up with Vegito, Trunks, and Goten. Videl pulled her sword out and whacked Kat on her knee with flat side of the blade. Kat crashed to the floor, bringing Gohan down with her.

Goten and Trunks looked in horror. Vegito simply picked each boy up and shot a blast in the wall. "We must leave. You will pay for this!" Vegito spoke before going through the hole in the wall. Kat and Gohan watched the smirking looks on Mars and Videl as they hovered above them.

Destiny did her best to make sure the others were healed if they were hurt. These demons were tougher and harder to beat. Her sea-green eyes saw the fast approaching figures of Vegito, Trunks, Goten, but no sign of Katherine or Gohan.

"This indeed was a trap. We have to leave now!" Vegito commanded. The others withdrew from their fighting and followed Vegito through the gate.

Piccolo saw how Vegito and the others came through the gate. He failed to see Gohan or Katherine. "Where are they?" the Namek demanded coolly.

Vegito set Goten and Trunks down and reverted to Goku and Vegeta. "We were double-crossed by Mars." Goku responded.

Tien and Chouzo exchanged looks with each other.

Yamcha simply nodded, but he was worried.

Chichi collapsed in Goku's arms.

"What happened?" Bulma demanded.

"Woman it went like this…" Vegeta explained.

"Stand up." Mars commanded.

Gohan and Kat made no notion to obey his command, they kept their faces neutral. This seemed to please Mars, who chuckled.

"You two do make a good pair. It could be useful… I know you are a half-saiyan Gohan, but what about you Katherine? As I recall no female saiyans survived." he spoke.

"That is none of your business Mars." Kat snapped.

Mars forced the two up by their shackle and stared coldly at Kat.

"You have remarkable courage to stand up to me Katherine. Perhaps this will change your mind." He kneed Gohan in the stomach. Kat's eyes flickered to absolute worry and then back to normal. Mars saw the change." Do I continue?"

*Damn bastard. * Kat thought.

"No. For your information I am an Ancient Saiyan." Kat stated.

"So the marvelous race does exist after all. This is a perfect combination! Guards, take them to their cell! I shall be down shortly." Mars instructed.

Four demons took Kat and Gohan away.

"What do you plan to do to them?" Videl inquired.

"You will see Videl. Once they are suppressed, then I can attack the remaining saiyans and then take over Earth."

Videl wondered exactly he planned to do to them. Evil thoughts were racing through her brain, but a flicker of sympathy forced her to think more deeply. *I do not have sympathy for those two! They deserve their fate, they ruined Mars's plan! Do they? Of course they do!*

"How so?"

"Come. I shall tell you of my plan for them."

Gohan winced as he and Kat were thrown in together in the cell. "I don't like this one bit Kat. He has something planned for us, but what?"

"That thought frightens me Gohan. I could list off the things he could do to us, starting with…"

"Er, no thanks Kat. That would make me more terrified of our current situation."

It worried Kat what Mars could do. *What is he planning? Whatever his plan, we are escaping.*
