Goku and the other arrive back at Capsule Corp. damaged and beaten. Everyone else is stunned by their sudden arrival and defeat as they try to get up off the ground.

“What happened?” Krillin asks.

“We got our asses handed to us that’s what happened” Vegeta responds.

Cheelai tends to Broly as Piccolo and Gohan help each other up with Videl tending to them. Goku is the last to stand, but he collapses once more to his knees. Goten and Krillin help him up and bring him inside. Frieza watches from a distance surprised to see the turn of events before looking back out where the Big Gete Star looms above in the sky.

Inside, the Z-Fighters reconvene where each of them are given a senzu bean to recover. Gohan hugs Pan while Piccolo rejuvenates beside them. Broly is patched up and is given water that he chugs down from all the fighting he had experienced. Goku lies on the table as Goten helps him stretch out his muscles.

“How bad was it?” Beerus asked still holding Bulla in his arms.

Goku can’t speak cause of all the tension being released from Goten stretching his muscles.

“Ow ow ow ow ow ow ow!”

Gohan hands Pan back over to Videl and steps forward.

“They’re formidable, I can say that much. We all had a tough time fighting them, even Broly” he says.

“When together, their coordinated attacks pack a punch. It wasn’t as easy as we thought” Piccolo chimes in.

Everyone begins to have doubts about winning this fight.

“I can’t wait to fight them again.”

They all look at Goku whose now better from the stretches as he loosens his muscles a bit more. He smacks his fist together and smirks.

“They maybe tough, but we sure had our fair share of enemies stronger than the last.”

He walks over to the window.

“This might be one of our toughest fights yet, but we’ve been through worst. I’m ready for the next go.”

Whis twirls his staff and, in the blink of light, restores everyone’s damaged states with all their Gi restored.

“Hopefully this time around, things will be different” he says.

“We have to come up with a plan” Piccolo suggests.

“Wait, where’s Vegeta?” Yamcha chimes in.

They all look around them to find the Saiyan Prince is not with them.

Outside on the roof, Vegeta continues to stare in the direction of where the Big Gete Star looms over in the atmosphere. Quiet and conflicted within himself as he remembers his past when he was a young child.

Back when Planet Vegeta was still around, many years before it’s destruction, a young Vegeta and his father, King Vegeta, walk down a hallway into a room full of nursing capsules full of infant saiyans. He looks around at each pod where the babies are sound asleep as King Vegeta walks into the far corner of the room where a lone pod sits away from everyone else isolated. King Vegeta touches the glass and looks at his son.

“Come.”

Vegeta walks forward towards him.

“What is it father?”

Young Vegeta steps closer and peeks to see a baby, timid and sound, floating within the amniotic fluid. The baby looks just like him.

“This is your brother. His name is Tarble.”

“Tarble?”

“I wanted you to see him before he’s sent off world. His power level is so low, he’s not even fit to be of lower-class. This will be the only time you’ll get to see him.”

Young Vegeta is sad to see the first and only time of his brother. His mind fills with frustration.

“If he lacks the qualities of a saiyan, he’s no brother of mine. I’m going to meet with Nappa and Raditz before we depart.”

Young Vegeta walks away from the pod and leaves the room as King Vegeta stares at baby Tarble one last time before following suit.

Pzzzt- Vegeta snaps to from his memory and it’s a call from Bulma. He hesitates answering and presses the button. Bulma is traveling through a forest, brushing through leaves.

“How are you holding up?”

Vegeta doesn’t respond.

“That bad huh?”

Vegeta stays silent. He continues to stare out into the distance.

“Well I’m aware of the tough fight you guys had. Trunks told me. We’re almost done, we have five dragon balls already.”

“We?”

Bulma shows the Pilaf Gang with her as they dig through a pile of rocks.

“Of coarse I wasn’t going to do this alone. Now, next time you go fight them guys show them that saiyan pride you always shout. You can do this and I know you can. I am “Your Bulma” after all.”

She winks before ending the call. Vegeta’s face gets red of embarrassment.

Meanwhile, in the destruction of West City, the Armored Squadron scout around, searching through the rubble and each building. Dore lifts things into the air.

“They’re not here” he says.

“That’s because they wouldn’t hide under a car you idiot” Neiz responds.

“Hey I’m not an idiot.”

As the two argue, Tarble stands on a rooftop looking into the distance, dozing off with many other things on his mind. He remembers moments back in his fight with Vegeta and how intense it felt through his eyes seeing the immense power Vegeta had. Tarble then recalls a memory of himself within the pod overhearing his father and brother talk before young vegeta walks away out of his range of sight. This angers Tarble more as he clenches his fists, raising his power level unintentionally through anger.

“Are you done brooding at the fact you’ve finally seen your brother?”

Tarble turns to see Salza walking up to him.

“I came by to inform you that Cooler wants us back at the Star to prepare for the next phase.”

“Right, let’s do this.”

Within the bridge of the Big Gete Star, Cooler watches the droids finish preparations. Kikono enters the room.

“Sire.”

“Set the Cooler Force loose onto the city and lay waste to whatever they find is still left alive. It’s time for the next phase.”
