"Who in the hell are you three?" Vegeta was steamed beyond belief, not to mention confused. The three new warriors were wearing Saiyan armor, and they each had tails. 'But that's impossible' Vegeta thought. 'Kakkarot, his brat, that kid from the future and myself are the only Saiyans left. How could they be Saiyans?'

"We'll tell you that in a minute. But for now, we have some issues with your hairy adversary there." The large, heavier set warrior was smiling and glaring at the thing which his partner had called an Amazon.

"What the hell do you think I'm going to do, just back off and let you finish this... Amazon... off? Like hell! This is my fight, and I'm not backing away from it for anything! Now just sit there and wait your turn like good boys and I'll leave him alive long enough for you to get your jollies." Vegeta turned back to the Amazon, but it was too late.

The hairy monster was already charging him, and by the time he saw what was coming, Vegeta was knocked onto his back with a mighty blow. He regained his senses in time to see two of the new arrivals, the heavier set one and the small one, charging the Amazon with energy beams blazing. Confused, Vegeta just looked on in awe. They were pummeling the Amazon with a force like no other.

Krillin flew over to where Vegeta stood, and looked on in wonder. "What do you make of these guys? Where'd they come from, and how come they look like Saiyans?"

"I don't know, and I don't really care. Noone barges in on my fight and gets away with it. I'm going to trash that, that thing, and then I'm going to get some answers. Feel free to join in, because the faster we waste that Amazon, the faster we know what the hell is going on."

"Sounds like a plan to me." With that, Krillin powered up his Ki and fired a blast into the fray, striking the Amazon square in the gut, knocking it over. Vegeta joined in by flying directly into the battle, landing a hard punch right on the creature's jaw as it sat up. This promptly returned it to the ground, dazed and unable to continue.

"Now tell me, what the hell is going on here? First of all, I want to know who the hell you three are, where you came from, and what you're doing interrupting my business. Then, I want to know what the hell this thing did with our companions. And if I don't get the answers I want soon, I'm going to be highly pissed off. You can all ask baldie here what happens when I get pissed off, so I suggest someone starts talking now." Vegeta was most certainly cross, and eager to continue the search for their friends.

172"> The taller, more slender warrior spoke. "My name is Ricardo. The big guy here is Randall, and the short guy over there, that's Ry." The other two warriors both nodded their greetings, and seemed oddly fixated on Vegeta. "We're Saiyans..."

"That simply isn't possible. I'm one of only three Saiyans left in the universe. The Saiyan race was eliminated by that slimeball lizard Freiza, but thanks to another Saiyan from the future, he's dead and gone as well. Now how did you ever survive the total annihilation of our race?" Vegeta was quickly turning his favorite shade of red.

"We're not from this particular dimension. Neither is our burly friend over there. We've been persuing him and his cronies for some time now. They managed to find a way to pass through space and time to different dimensions, and the three of us managed to follow them here."

"Alright, I guess I'll have to take your word for it. But that still doesn't explain what they're doing here in our dimension. They've already turned my vacation into a problem. Of course, that happens no matter what. But the fact remains that they have no business being here. So what are they here for?"

"We're not sure ourselves. This guy is part of a race of Amazons who we've been at war with for several centuries now. Just recently, they began capturing our warriors and studying them, apparently trying to find some sort of weakness to capitalize on. From the few who've escaped, we learned that lately their focus has been on our biology, and intense genetic experiments. But unfortunately, those who escaped were either rendered insane, or died soon after returning."

"Well, I've got news for them." Vegeta turned and walked over to the bound Amazon. "Saiyans don't have any weaknesses that you can easily exploit. We're the most superior race in the universe, and it's high time you accepted that fact." With that, Vegeta gave the beaten creature a swift kick to the ribs, further assisting it the pain it was already suffering.

"We're not sure why they decided to send these four into this dimension, but it can't be good, and they have to be stopped soon." As he spoke, Ricardo seemed to never make eye contact with Vegeta, and this bugged the Saiyan Prince.

"Well, you can have them when we're done with them. They've kidnapped two of our companions. The little bald guy's girlfriend, and that mouthy earth woman who builds me my training devices." In his anger, he had reverted to his usual nicknames for Bulma, though in the back of his mind he still loved her very much. After all, his pride was now on the line, and with full force.

"I'm willing to bet it has something to do with their plans, but we really can't be sure. But we can tell you something about them, so you're prepared to take them on should you cross their paths again."

Krillin sat and looked on with interest. The three Saiyans seemed incredibly aware of Vegeta's presence, almost like they knew who he was. 'Man, that's weird. That Ricardo guy almost never looks directly at Vegeta, and the other two can't seem to take their eyes off of him. This whole situation is getting creepier by the minute.' He listened intently as the Saiyans' leader explained about the Amazons they were sure to face.

"This is only the first one of four. He's the weakest, they only get stronger from there. These four are a sort of special task force for the Amazon Confederacy, our rivals in our dimension. Each has the abilities of the previous one in rank, with a few extra surprises. So you can't expect the next three to be as easy as this guy was. Their leader is said to be the strongest fighter their military has to offer, so you can bet he's got tricks up his sleave that have never been seen by anyone before."

"Well, that's quite alright with me. I have a few surprises of my own, and I intend to deliver them once I've found them and freed our companions. Thanks for your assistance, but further help from you won't be necessary. It's bad enough I have to have baldie over here helping me out, but he has as much of a stake in this as I do. Once we've defeated these Amazons, you can do whatever you like with them. But for now, just stay out of my way." Vegeta was up to his old tricks again, not trusting anyone. Even though these Saiyans appeared to be his allies, he simply wasn't going to allow them to give him any sort of help. His pride was just too strong.

In a cave somewhere on the north end of the island, the three remaining Amazons looked on in their monitors as the Saiyans from both dimensions discussed everything, followed by Vegeta and Krillin's departure. "Damnit. I knew those three would find some way to follow us. Typical Saiyans. It's bad enough that the only real threat to the plan has to be alive in this dimension, but now he's got some help from those three low life primates. Move up the time table, and you two get out there and see what you can do about stalling them."

"Yes sir, with pleasure." The second in command gave an evil smirk and left with the third to go and meet the Saiyan threat. The leader returned to his command chair and activated its motor, spinning it slowly around until it faced his prisoners.

Bulma and Mizuki were both strapped down, unconcious, to what seemed to be operating tables, each with some frightening looking instruments laid out on tables nearby. The Amazon leader smiled an evil, knowing smile.

"Soon, you two won't be alone. Once we capture Vegeta, it'll all become clear. And then we'll have the means to destroy those dirty monkeys and stake our claim as a major universal power..."

"So, do you think it was really him?" Ry looked at his leader inquisitivly, wondering if the angry Saiyan they had just met was the one they all knew in their dimension.

Randall came back from sending the first Amazon through the dimensional portal. "If it was Vegeta, then maybe there's hope for us yet. What do you think, Ric?"

Ricardo sat on a rock, deep in thought. "If it's Vegeta at all. In our dimension, he's dead, because the Amazons knew he was a major threat. If they're here, the probably know about him and would move to eliminate him. But who knows."

Randall walked up to him and put his hand on his leader's shoulder. "I know how tough it is, Ric. But if that is Vegeta, then we have some hope of stopping these freaks yet. If anyone can do it, it's Vegeta."

"I know, Randall. But it's still tough to comprehend seeing him again. After watching him die at the hands of these damned Amazons... It's just too much for me to comprehend yet."

"Well, at any rate, I think we should be looking for the rest of these creeps. Once we take them down, we can go back to our own dimension and finish smashing these fools into the ground." Ry picked up his scouter and put it on. Activating it, he scanned the area for signs of their adversaries. "Well, that other Saiyan and his human friend are heading east. But I'm not getting any readings for... Wait..." He turned his gaze northward and picked up two other energy signals. "There they are. Two of them, headded right for us."

Ricardo came out of his thoughts and looked northward. "Then let's go meet them halfway, shall we?" The other two Saiyans smiled and nodded. Soon, they were on their way.

Vegeta and Krillin flew just over the treeline, trying to sense anything they could in order to find the Amazons and rescue the girls. They hadn't gotten far when Vegeta suddenly stopped and landed on a rather high hill with a few trees.

"Hey, Vegeta. What are we stopping for?"

"Quiet down, chrome dome. I need a minute to think things out." Vegeta walked over to a large rock and sat down to think.

"OK, there, grouchy. No problem. I'm gonna see if I can rustle us up some water and something to eat. I won't be far, just yell if something comes up."

In his own typical fashion, Vegeta gave his reply. "Hrrmph."

"Right then. Catch ya later." With that, Krillin took off down the hill.

Lost in his thoughts almost immediately, Vegeta pondered his encounter with the other Saiyans. 'Alright, so their from another dimension. Hell, if it's possible for a Super Saiyan to come from the future, then I can understand another dimension. But what the hell do they want here? More importantly, what do those Amazons want from coming here and taking Bulma and that bald guy's girlfriend. What the hell could they possibly be planning?' His thoughts soon turned to the little lady that had tamed his heart over the recent months. 'Bulma. Don't be afraid. Wherever you are, I'm going to find you. And when I do, I'll make the asshole who did this to you pay, dearly...'
