Okay. This is a side project I had for a while now. Just a little idea. Tell me what you think. It's an Au.

Dance till midnight

Prologue

My chains ringed and the sound echoed through my dark cell. Under the heavy metal my blood oozed and skin ached.

It hurt.

But I'll never admit that to him. I have too much pride.

I touched my flame-like hair. As I combed my hand through it I felt the dried blood of past years in it.

Curse him! Curse that traitor! I'll kill him! I'll kill him even if it takes my life!

The door opened. An evil chuckle filled the room as I looked up. Freeza stood there.

"Well, my prince, how are we feeling today?" I growled at him. "I know you are planning to kill me, though I have to admit I don't know how. There is no way you could escape from here. It's impossible. But it doesn't matter. In four days I'll be sitting on a double throne. And then, even if you overthrow me, somehow, I'll still have the other."

He laughed at his fortune.

I just started at him.

Darn!

He stopped laughing and went on with his entertainment. He started to whip me.

I didn't scream.

I have gotten used to it by now.



Chi-Chi sat at her window, gazing out at the setting sun. The mountains were gazed with a sugar-like coating of pink, purple, orange and red.

Oh, why did she have to marry him? Him, of all people! She always loathed being a princess, but now she hated it even more!

She had to marry the horrid King Freeza. Yuck! She just couldn't do it. Who could anyway?

But she had to marry. Otherwise war would brake out. She cursed that so many different creatures lived in the two lands.

The marriage will also unite the two lands.

She wondered though what the REAL prince would be like.

The real royal family of the Yasi (the other land) mysteriously disappeared six years ago. Then Freeza, the royal adviser took over.

Chi-Chi only had four days of freedom left. Three days of the ball and then the marriage. She couldn't picture sleeping in the same bed as that monster. Again, yuck!

"What are you doing Chi-Chi?" A voice came from the door.

She looked towards it.

It was Bulma, her best friend.

"Oh nothing, I'm just wondering how I should kill myself."

"Oh come on, I'm sure it's not going to be that bad."

Chi-Chi raised an eyebrow at the adviser's daughter. They were best friends ever since they were little.

"Okay, so it will be that bad. But you still have three days left to live! Think how much fun we will have!"

"Right."

"Come on, we got to go pick the dresses." Bulma said as she pulled her friend out the door by her wrist. The princess just smiled.



I watched the sun set through my small window. He had finished whipping me only a few minutes ago, and I felt the fresh blood slowly run down my back. I felt it.

I knew it.

Now was the time.

I looked away from the window, at the guard who had just slid my 'food' in through the whole at the bottom of the cage-like door.

"Psst! Vegeta!" A cheery voice whispered.

"Kakaratto!" I stood up, grabbing the bars. "About time you showed up!"

I glared at him.

"Sorry man. I had a hard time escaping Raddits and mom. They wanted me to study again. I hate geometry! You forgive me, V-man?"

He gave me a puppy-eyed look.

"Yeah-yeah, of course." I rolled my eyes. He could be so childish at times. "Kakaratto, it's time."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes." I looked at the door. "I'll explain as soon as you get me out of here."

He nodded.

My ears are open to your reviews!
