I dont own anything except my OC. Let me know if you like it and want more like it! I am open for suggestions and promise that Vegeta is a big character in this saga. It will take a few chapters to get there though, so hang with me.
I do not own DBZ od DBZ characters. I do own OC and OP.
Chapter 1: Ancient Princess Saiyan Appears
Last time on Dragon Ball Z the defeat of Kid Buu had taken place. Five years had passed since the defeat of Kid Buu, the Z warriors had become happy and secure in the peaceful times.
At capsule corps, Trunks and Vegeta continue to train for the next world martial arts tournament. As the two warriors fought inside the gravity chamber, they had no idea the power they were about to face. Repeatedly, the two punched and jabbed each other. As Trunks landed a punch on Vegeta's face, Vegeta smirked and spoke, "finally my son, you are begging to ascend to the greatness that flows through your veins!"
"Father, one day you will lose to me," Trunks joked with a smile.
"Never, my son, never," Vegeta replied. The two continued to train under the intense gravity, as great evil threat neared Earth.
Meanwhile, in a quiet mountain a celebration was taking place. Chi chi was humming as she baked a cake, carefully writing "Congratulations Goten!" Goten had been accepted to the same High School Trunks was attending. Their family was celebrating Goten's academic achievement.
"I am so happy, Goten, finally a good education for you. Just like your brother," Chi Chi happily chirped.
"Well, Chi Chi, I know they didn't get their smarts from my side of the family," Goku happily joked. "Are you excited to meet all the new girls, Goten?"
As Goku, looked around Chi Chi punched Goku in the head and screamed, "Goten is not going to school to meet girls, he is there to learn." The Ox King, Gohan and Goten all chuckled not knowing there was an evil force heading toward them. The family happily stuffed their face with the wonderful food Chi Chi prepared.
At that, moment at Dende's look out, Piccolo became aware of the evil that was approaching. "Piccolo, do you feel that as well," Dende asked.
"Yes, Dende, there is an evil heading to Earth at this moment. I must alert the others," Piccolo replied in haste. At that moment, he placed his finger to his forehead to summon the other Z fighters. "Everyone, we must assemble immediately," his voice thundered within the Z warrior's minds. They knew duty had called. At that moment, each of the Z fighters dropped whatever they had been doing and flew to Dende's look out.
"Piccolo, this power approaching us feels terrible and old. I fear the whole universe may be in trouble," Dende hastily stated. Piccolo's silence confirmed the overwhelming feeling Dende felt in his heart.
"Dad, do you feel that power?" Trunks said hastily to his father, as they flew to Dende's look out. "Oh, look the others are here too," Trunks observed. The remainders of the Z warriors were flying alongside them towards Dende's lookout.
"Son, relax the strongest men in the universe are living on Earth. We need not fear," Vegeta stated with confidence. Vegeta's confidence was as smug as always. As he began to speak again he was interrupted by a very old friend, Supreme Kai had intercepted the Z fighters as they flew. "What are you doing here?" Vegeta inquired, his voice irritated.
"There is a very old power heading your direction, she is looking for me," Supreme Kai replied in a short voice. Stress sweat covered the Supreme Kai's forehead; everyone could tell he was worried about something. Yet the Kai remained silent.
"Then why are you here?" Vegeta demanded. "If this old woman is looking for you why did you lead her to Earth?" His impatience with the Kai was evident; however, the Supreme Kai ignored his arrogance.
"In time, Vegeta, your questions will be answered. However, for the moment you must know, she is also searching for you," Supreme Kai foretold. As he looked forward, he thought of the past with a look of intensity on his face. "Is it possible she escaped?" He thought to himself, "she could not have that kind of power, this cannot be her. I would never forget that particular power, it was so unique." The Supreme Kai, continuing with Vegeta and Trunks to join the others, remained quiet until they landed.
As all the fighters waited, a being was awakening within her ship. "Crash landing on Earth, five minutes. Brace yourself your highness," a computer voice sounded. The young woman stretched and woke up from her long nap. "Not long now, not long now and I will have my revenge," the girl sneered.
At that moment, she crash-landed on Earth. The Z fighters all looked upon her ship with intensity that could crush a skull. Vegeta then noticed something strange about the space pod, "It couldn't be, it isn't possible," Vegeta thought with a look of horror on his face. As the pod doors lifted and the smoke cleared, the men before her were astonished to see a beautiful girl. She had long flowing black hair with a sever widows peek, and short in stature. Her body was thin but athletic, similar to a ballerina's body. Unlike a ballerina, she had large breasts and a tail. Her dark eyes, onyx in color stared at the group in front of her. She could feel them eye her from head to foot.
This girl gave Goku flash backs to the days when he met Vegeta. It was no mistake, she was some relative to Vegeta, and her power signal was so much like his. "If she is related to Vegeta we are all in trouble. The Saiyan royal family must be really short because this girl makes Vegeta look like a giant," Goku choked back a cheap laugh as he thought. As Goku continued to think, he realized her power was of a warrior much older than Vegeta. His shocking revelation was confirmed as he glanced at Supreme Kai's face, this look confirmed his intuition was correct. This young girl was not what she appeared.
As the mysterious young woman stood and looked about her surroundings, she then pointed. Her finger was pointed at young Trunks, "You are the Prince of all Saiyans, are you not?" She demanded in a voice that was southing to the ears, but terrifying to the soul. Her voice could be compared to lightning storm, because it was southing to hear the rainfall but frightening to hear the clap of thunder.
"No," yelled Vegeta, his voice angered at her mistake. "I am the Prince of all Saiyans! What is it you desire, woman?" At the word woman, the vein upon the girl's temple began to throb. Obviously indicating she was irritated by the insolence of this little man.
The girl then squared her body, and then roared at Vegeta, "Then it is you that must die, for I am Eclipse, the last remaining Saiyan woman. I am here to eliminate you Vegeta." Her angry words caused gasps to come across the group. The thought on everyone's mind was, why would she want to destroy Vegeta, wasn't she a Saiyan?
"Why would you want to kill Vegeta, Miss?" Goku asked kindly, "he was a mean old horse at one time but he has changed." Goku wanted to stall Eclipse from fighting; his kind voice did not douse the angry fire within Eclipse. He knew she was much stronger than all of them combined, even Supreme Kai. Stalling could be their only hope.
"That is why he must die!" Eclipse yelled, "Do you even know who I am?" She looked around at the dumbfounded faces staring back at her. "Well do you?" Her eyes landed on Supreme Kai, his face could not hide the realization that he knew Eclipse.
"I know not of whom you are but, you have no business here. Run back to your mother little girl," Vegeta commanded.
"Vegeta, do not jab at this woman. Her age and power surpass anyone and everything in this universe." Supreme Kai warned, "I warn you all, she is dangerous." He then turned his attention onto Eclipse, "I know who you are, but how did you get here? The dimension you were in is not able to be broken out of, I sent you there myself!"
At that moment, the Z fighters looked at her with astonishment. No, it couldn't be that this young girl Eclipse was not only an alien to Earth but also their universe. As they stared at her, she began to answer Supreme Kai's questions slowly. "Well Kai, it is a long story. How should I begin?" she then thought to herself for a few moments.
"Ahhh." She proclaimed she finally realized how to start the story. "Well it began with my Great Grand Mother and Father. Vegeta, I don't think you even know this story; it predates the Saiyan conquest of the Tuffles." She shot Vegeta an arrogant smile, her confidence annoyed Vegeta. She continued, "Saiyans came into existence from the conquering of the planet of Saiy. Six Micean men, possessing great ape like strength. They were a dying breed, they required women with vast amounts of strength and would be compatible for reproducing. The beautiful and strong women of Saiy were found to be perfect. The six men conquered the planet of Saiy and eradicated all Saiy males. As the Miceans settled down in their new home, a higher achy was established. As you, all know Saiyans value strength, my Great-Great Grandfather Bardoxes was crowned king and took my Great-Great Grandmother Sarand as his wife. Second in command was your ancestors Vegeta." As she said this, a flash of surprise flew across Vegeta's face. "They were named Vegetasun and Kaishe. Does this ring a bell?"
Vegeta then went into a flash back of his Saiyan school days. His teacher was giving a lesson on the Saiyan Royal ancestry. "Price Vegeta, who was the first King of the Saiyan race?" The teacher demanded, Vegeta not knowing the answer hung his head in shame. The teacher short in patience shot a Ki blast at his head, "Does Vegetasun mean anything to you? He was your great-great-great-great grandfather!"
Snapping Vegeta out of his flash back was the sounds of Eclipse continuing, "But the true story does not begin there; it begins with the arranged marriage of Lord Vegetasun's First born son Kackerrot and King Bardoxes's only child Princess Despotic. The two were very much in love and wanted to take over the universe together." Eclipse then stopped and looked at Supreme Kai, "Why don't you tell them the rest Kai?"
Hesitant to look at the others, Supreme Kai stared at his feet. The crack in the tile under his left foot was not as judging as his companions would be. After a long pause, he began to speak. "Despotic was a kind hearted individual who never wanted to take life unless she had no other option. When she commanded her armies, she would only conquer lands of dark and evil places. However, her husband was a ruthless and evil man. When he heard of the world of Kai's he wanted it more than any other world in the universe. It was three thousand years ago when he and his wife landed on the planet of the Kai's. I was a young man then, I was training to become the Supreme Kai. One after another of my masters fell to King Kackerrot's feet. The immense fighting and war had taken its toll on planet Kai. This was a dark moment in Kai history, finally Elder Kai and I were the only two left to fight on the planet. Both of us realized that we were no match to fight the evil King and his army. We devised a plan to banish him to the dark dimension for eternity. I fought King Kackerrot, as I opened the portal his wife turned into a super Saiyan as she tried to save her husband from certain doom. The passion she felt for her mate forced her into a new form. However, the power she gained was to no avail. She was sucked through the portal after her husband. The rest of the Saiyan race was punished by the destruction of their home planet, forced to wander in the universe. They reemerged with your father leading, Vegeta, he was the last remaining original Prince of the Saiyans. But all this information is not useful to why you are here, Eclipse."
"Quite with the history lesion, Kai," yelled Vegeta, his patience was wearing thin. How could this dumb woman come to Earth and steel his thrown? Her story could not be true, Vegeta roared in anger, "Eclipse your mouth vomits nothing but lies. What mind trick are you playing on the Supreme Kai?"
"Vegeta, quiet yourself." Eclipse warned with a dark tone, "Vegeta, I grew up in the dark dimension. I am over six hundred years old, yet I will never get old. I am the last of the true royal bloodline; in order to ascend to the title owed to me by birth I must defeat you! Cousin, I must destroy you!" She then took a fighting stance and flew at Vegeta, in a flash Supreme Kai halted her punch, saving Vegeta.
"Eclipse your fight is with me!" he yelled. The Kai's face showed no mercy.
"Your right Kai," she looked at Vegeta and smirked, "Your next." With a wink, she turned back to Supreme Kai and took stance. A stare down commenced between the two most powerful beings in the universe. Both mentally preparing for the epic fight about to commence.
"Hmmm, why can't I read her thoughts? She is truly powerful. She looks so much like Queen Despotic, I can't fight her." Supreme Kai's inner thoughts raced as he too took stance. "If my memory is correct, I remember Queen Despotic was a strong ruler and compassionate towards those who showed her loyalty. Those who threatened her people would die at her feet. A terrible but kind power, this Saiyan girl before me is much like her." His thoughts were interrupted by a Ki blast from Eclipse. The fighting then commenced.
All of the Z fighters watched in amazement as the Supreme Kai fought Eclipse. Krillin worried, turned to Piccolo and asked, "What do you make of this, Piccolo?"
"The Supreme Kai is hiding something, and Elder Kai is about to be here." Piccolo unsurprised felt the hand of Elder Kai on his shoulder. Krillin however, was completely surprised. His shock released a small shriek. "Elder Kai, you know something else don't you?" Piccolo inquired, he could feel something was being withheld.
"You are right Piccolo; I do know many things you do not. However, my purpose here is to rekindle the good in Eclipse's heart. She is a kind and lovely girl, but the evil of the dark dimension has clouded her heart." Elder Kai explained. "Hopefully, this fight with Supreme Kai will be beneficial for both parties."
"Hmm, both parties?" Piccolo was not sure what to make of this thought.
They watched as Eclipse and Supreme Kai fought. It was like watching two people dance; their moves were like poetry in motion. They would attack, counter and avoid each other with the grace of a ballerina. Neither combatant skipping a beat.
While Kai was fighting, he began to think, "She is so much like her grandmother, yet I cannot read her thoughts." Then as he prepared for an energy blast he yelled at Eclipse, "I have read your heart, I know you are not evil, I beg you please do not do this. I wish not to destroy you."
"You know nothing of my heart. I know you cannot invade my head; your telepathy has no effect. My mother taught me of your tricks, my Grandmother resisted your mind tricks and you sent her into the dark dimension, all because you couldn't have her!"
Astonishment came across Kai's face, "HOW DOES SHE KNOW?" he thought.
"That is right Kai; I know you loved my Grandmother."
At his realization Elder Kai spoke to Piccolo, "Eclipse has the upper hand." Elder Kai continued to watch the fight with intensity and analyze both fighters' technique.
"How Elder Kai? Supreme Kai is winning, he is physically much stronger!" Piccolo responded. Piccolo could not understand how Supreme Kai's superior strength would not be the deciding factor in the fight.
"He is in love," both Elder Kai and Piccolo looked shocked at Krillin as he spoke up. "I know that look anywhere. Goku gave the same look Chi Chi when he came back from the dead. That is the look a person who has longed for the love of someone for many, many years. For Supreme Kai's case it has been thousands of years."
"That is right Krillin; Supreme Kai did love Queen Despotic. However, when it came time to choose between Supreme Kai and King Kackerrot, she chose her husband. Supreme Kai didn't banish her to the dark dimension, she chose to fallow King Kackerrot. Supreme Kai reopened the portal after her husband had been sucked in. He knew her heart belonged with him and never spoke of his feelings. Eclipse looks so much like her grandmother he cannot help himself," the Elder Kai explained. "The reason Queen Despotic became Super Saiyan was to find her husband in the darkness, Despotic was the light in the dark. She needed to become Super Saiyan to find her one true love."
Listening to the Elder Kai, Vegeta and Goku then realized that Queen Despotic, the warrior of legend was a woman. Vegeta's pride wished he could change this face. How could it be true Saiyan women were much stronger than Saiyan men? His mind could not wrap around this novel idea. The teachings of his father in that moment were contradicted completely, leaving Vegeta utterly confused and frustrated.
The fight continued between Supreme Kai and Eclipse. Eclipse showed no signs of slowing down; Supreme Kai continued to refuse to fight. Realization came to Eclipse finally, "he must have feelings for me," she concluded for herself. She then landed on the ground and shortly fallowed by Supreme Kai. She slowly moved toward the Supreme Kai, who had his defense up. Her movements were like a panther on the prowl, then stopping a few feet short of the Kai.
Looking at her feet, she spoke slowly, "Supreme Kai, I know what your heart says too. Kai, you cannot hide from me." She looked at Supreme Kai; their gaze was enough love to make even the coldest person warm. Cupid's arrow at that moment had been shot through the heart of Eclipse and melted the hatred towards Supreme Kai. Both parties had never experienced love at first sight like this, and felt its whole force at once.
"Eclipse, come touch my hand. You will know the truth," Supreme Kai wanted Eclipse to understand what had happen to her grandmother. She slowly walked to Supreme Kai, taking his hand. In a flash, she knew everything about the events of the past.
"You are strong Eclipse, come with me to the world of the Kai's. I will give you knowledge I posses. I love you and want to share my life with you!" said a chocked up Supreme Kai. He was overcome by the pain and anguish of Eclipse's life. For when he touched, her he knew her past as well, he felt the loneliness and hatred that the dark dimension had placed on the poor girl's soul. Strengthening his feelings to love and protect her.
"She chose my Grandfather and you just let her go?" Eclipse asked. When Supreme Kai, had touched Eclipse his memories were given to her, showing her the events of the banishment of Kind Kackerrot. Eclipse could not understand why Supreme Kai had let her grandmother go even though he loved her.
"Sadly yes, I was a young Kai and chose to become Supreme Kai over love. I have lived many years alone, my ambitions took over my life. I knew all too well that had acted on my feelings I would not be allowed to become Supreme Kai. For the Supreme Kai cannot take a wife." Supreme Kai explained still looking at his shoes, holding her hand. He let go of her hand and turned away blushing.
"But, why now Supreme Kai, why are you expressing your love now? You will lose your title of Supreme Kai," as she said this she took Supreme Kai's hands into her own and looked up into his face. "Are you really going to give that all up for me?" Her dark onyx eyes searched his purple face for answers.
As she brushed his white hair from his eyes he replied, "Yes, Eclipse. My time as Supreme Kai is over, now it is time to explore the universe with the woman of my dreams." Supreme Kai knew all too well the repercussions of this statement. He at that moment relinquished his title as Supreme Kai, looking into Eclipse's eyes made his decision complete. The two would roam the Universe together training to protect the innocent.
With that, the two looked at the Z fighters and waved. "Everyone, we must be going. We will be back in 2 years. Until then, good bye!" using instant transmission the two disappeared.
Dumbfounded in the rapidly declining plot the Z warriors gaped in the direction of where the two super powers were previously standing. "Well that was a complete disappointment," said a dissatisfied Vegeta. "I was anticipating a good fight." His eyebrows retracting from the intense scowl into a light scowl upon his face, his reaction cause the rest of the group to laugh.
"Oh, do not worry about not fighting Vegeta," said Elder Kai. "They will be back in 2 years when King Kackerrot come back to kill you Vegeta."
Surprised Vegeta exclaimed, "What! Why?" Once again, surprise hit the group of warriors; the unexpected twist was not what they had anticipated.
Elder Kai explained, "Your ancestors, Vegeta, unjustly stole the thrown from King Kackerrot. Let's just say he isn't too happy about it and seeks revenge. Eclipse was just the beginning. Supreme Kai knows of the impending doom before us and took Eclipse to train to defeat King Kackerrot. As for all of you," he looked at the entire Z crew with a curious look, "you are all coming with me!" As he said this, a twinkle in his eye transported the Z warriors to a far off planet.
Elder Kai has taken the Z warriors, but what is this place? What kind of training will they be receiving? Who will stop King Kackerrot from taking over the universe? What about Supreme Kai and Eclipse, what does the future hold for them? Stay tuned for the next Dragon Ball Z…
