Anyways, on with the fic!

**********

Vegeta had found three of the seven DragonBalls. After searching for an hour he finally decided that Kakarot had most likely found the other four, so he flew back up to the Outlook. As he was flying up there, Vegeta began to reflect on the energy readings he had been receiving from the Outlook. At first, he had thought that it was a mere training session going on, but now he could sense the severity of the power, and knew something serious was going on. As he quickened his pace, he realized he could only sense one power level, and he didn't recognize it. It was too low to be Aukai's or Seshin's, and it was far too high to be Tien's, Yamcha's, or any of the other weaklings. He could sense also that whoever it was, they were losing. This is were Vegeta got confused. There was only one power level, how can you lose if there is no one to fight?

`This is bizarre.' Vegeta thought.

He flew over the curve of the edge of the platform, and he saw Bra get punched in the stomach. Vegeta zoned out, only seeing the blood fly from his daughter's lips, and the man who had, as far as Vegeta knew, killed the only princess of the Saiyan's. Something snapped inside of the Prince, and he released a scream that seemed to originate from the bowels of HFIL.

**********

Even Gyakou was thrown back by the force of the explosion that originated from Vegeta's body. The scream eventually piqued so high, it was inaudible. When his aura shrunk, Vegeta stood there, Super Saiyan Three. Gyakou turned toward him.

"Who the fu…" Gyakou began but was cut off as Vegeta's foot collided with his mouth.

Bulma looked up at her mate. "Kick his ass, Vegeta!!!"

Gyakou turned toward the Saiyan Prince. "Lucky shot."

Vegeta laughed. "I'm never lucky, you just suck."

Gyakou growled. "Why you little monkey!"

Vegeta put on his famous smirk. "By the way, who rearranged your face? Or should I say, removed it?"

Gyakou jerked his thumb toward Seshin and Piccolo. "That idiot."

"Which idiot? You have to be more specific when you say that word, seeing as how you are the most retarded person I've seen." Vegeta said.

"I've had enough of your slenderizing!" Gyakou screamed.

He flew at Vegeta and threw a massive punch at Vegeta's face. Vegeta simply tilted his head, and Gyakou flew right past him. Gyakou then grabbed Vegeta by his long hair and threw him at a building. Vegeta was angered by the fact that he was caught off guard, fired a serious of energy blasts at the android. Gyakou batted these away as Vegeta landed briskly on his feet. The Saiyan Prince brushed at his hair, not used to the added weight. Gyakou smiled.

"Does the Great Warrior have a weakness?" Gyakou laughed.

Vegeta grunted. "BIG BANG!!!"

Gyakou was slammed back by the bright white blast that struck his chest.

"Does the mighty Android have a weakness?" Vegeta laughed.

**********

Seshin slowly came to, his vision blurred. He was welcomed by the stingy, swelling pain of his ruined hands. Tears welled up in his eyes as the pain hit him like a sledgehammer. He looked up, and through his tears he could see his Prince, fighting valiantly against an opponent he would not beat. Suddenly, he heard Piccolo grunt.

"You're alive!?" Seshin whispered.

Piccolo groaned. "Yeah, but not for long if you don't get off of me!!!"

"Oh!" Seshin said. "Sorry."

Piccolo rolled over, his energy struggling above zero. Piccolo knew he wouldn't be able to fight against Gyakou, he simply didn't have enough power. He sensed that Seshin still had enough power to put up a little struggle. He looked up at Seshin.

"Why aren't you fighting!?" Piccolo demanded.

Seshin held up his hands, the movement causing the scalded flesh to crack open more and blood to spill on the Namek. Pain flooded Seshin's body, causing the proud Saiyan's eyes to tear up. Piccolo looked at his hands.

"Not even a Senzu Bean could cure these wounds." Piccolo sighed and gathered up the remaining amounts of his energy. "I, however, maybe able to help."

Piccolo's hands glowed yellow, he held them over Seshin's hands, and after a few minutes, Seshin's hands were healed, along with the rest of his physical wounds. His energy, however, had not improved. Seshin flexed his palms, amazed.

"Go…" Piccolo grunted, exhausted. "Go help in the battle."

Seshin looked towards Vegeta and Gyakou. The short Prince was putting up quite a fight, but Seshin knew it wouldn't last long. He quickly ran over to his Space Pod, and grabbed his sword. The carvings on it were in a different language, but it was not Saiyan. Only Seshin could decipher the symbols, and now was not the time. He glanced back to make sure Gyakou had not noticied him, then he jumped off of the Outlook.

**********

Vegeta had been fighting the brutal battle when he noticied Seshin jump of off the edge. He wondered what the boy had in store, but he got a punch in the face for being distracted. Vegeta flew back, landing near the edge.

"Well, never take your eyes off of the opponent." Gyakou laughed.

Vegeta smirked and fired a Galic Gun blast at Gyakou. The Android had barely been able to move in time.

"I've already seen that move, what a bore." Gyakou said.

Vegeta smiled. "Then what do you say to spicing up the battle?"

Gyakou looked at him warily. "What do you have in mind?"

"A test of endurance." Vegeta offered. "I let you have a free, unguarded attack on me, and you give me the same thing."

Gyakou smiled. "Okay, I agree."

Vegeta smiled. "Okay then."

**********

Seshin flew down to Earth, landed on the ground by the base of Master Korin's Tower. After a few moments of looking around, he found Aukai, laying very still on the ground. Seshin ran over to him.

"Uhhhh…" Aukai groaned. "Is…Is Marron…Ok?"

Seshin smiled at his selflessness. "Yes, she is fine."

"Thanks to you." Aukai smiled.

"Aukai, I need you to do something." Seshin asked.

"What!?" Aukai asked.

"You need to gather up as much power as you can, and attack Gyakou with a surprise attack." Seshin said. "Do have an energy attack you can charge up and draw energy from the other warrior's?"

Aukai nodded. "My Hichiha Blast can do that."

Seshin helped him to his feet. "I need you to gather power. I'll distract Gyakou."

Seshin flew off as Aukai gathered energy.

**********

Gyakou threw a red energy blast that struck Vegeta straight in the face. Vegeta was thrown back and forced to go down to Super Saiyan Two. Vegeta forced himself to his feet, blood running down his face. As he struggled to stand, Gyakou smiled.

"I guess I underestimated you!" Gyakou laughed. "That blast should have killed you!"

Vegeta looked at him. "Isn't hard to smile, with have of your face missing?"

Gyakou frowned. "Hurry up, attack."

"Oh, I will." Vegeta slapped his wrists together, facing his open palms toward the Android. "Trust me, I will."

Gyakou laughed and stood unguarded. "Hurry, I don't have all day!"

"Just don't move!" Vegeta smirked.

"Why should I?"

"You'll see…"

**********

Seshin stopped on his way up to the Outlook. Yajirobe and Korin where having an argument.

"I don't wanna…" Yajirobe pouted. "I'm not into the whole `bravery' thing."

"That's why you must!" Korin demanded. "No one will suspect…"

"What's up?" Seshin asked.

Both looked at him. Korin huffed. "This fool is too scared to deliver some much needed Senzu Beans."

"Maybe we shouldn't…" Seshin said. "If Gyakou sees the medicinal purposes, he'll either destroy them or eat them."

"You're right." Korin agreed. "We should use them after the battle."

Seshin nodded. "Unless we are forced to do differently."

Seshin turned to fly off, and Korin tossed him a bean. "Here. I know what you plan to do, you'll need this."

Seshin ate it and as he did, everyone, including Aukai, heard Vegeta's booming voice.

"FINAL FLASH!!!"

**********

Vegeta put so much energy into the Final Flash, that as soon as he fired it, he powered doen to normal, hair pitch black. Gyakou was engulfed in the massive attack, and the whole world shook with it's fury. After the delayed explosion, all of the attack's energy floated around in the air. Aukai saw this as a golden oppurtinity and absorbed as much of it as he could, gathering strength for his attack. Even with this massive improvement, Aukai knew it would not be enough to destroy Gyakou. So he gathered more.

"That's all I have." Vegeta panted as he fell to one knee.

However, when the smoke cleared, Gyakou was still standing, his arms crossed over his face. Despite the fact that he blocked the attack, he was badly damaged. He relaxed and walked toward Vegeta, and kicked the proud Saiyan in the face, knocking him to his back. He then slammed his heel down on Vegeta's stomach, grinding it back and forth, breaking his Saiyan Armor. Instead of crying out in pain, Vegeta laughed hoarsly. This angered Gyakou.

"Why are you laughing!?" He demanded.

Vegeta smirked. "You……had to……block…"

Gyakou was about to kill him, but a foot struck his face, sending him flying across the Outlook. Everyone turned to see Seshin, as he drew his sword.
