Prologue-The Saiyan Princess
Many years ago, in a time shrouded with mystery, power, and adventure, there lived a man named Goku. This man was Earth's savior and protector, fighting off any evil that ever threatened his home. He was a happy man, surrounded by those he loved, including his wife, Chichi, and two children, Gohan and Goten. The two boys would grow into powerful beings like their father, each with a distinct fighting style and a unique personality to match.
Along with Goku, Earth was protected by none other than Prince Vegeta, who when first landing on the planet, sought nothing but the destruction of the planet his rival Goku, or Kakarot as Vegeta called him, held so dear. But as time passed, Vegeta found a place on Earth with his rival, and eventually grew close to Goku and considered him a friend. Vegeta himself had a wife, Bulma, and two children, Trunks and Bulla.
Goku and Vegeta, two members of the mighty but dwindling Saiyan race. Their legacy would continue to live on even after they passed, as the Saiyan gene spread from Gohan, Goten, Trunks, Bulla, to Pan, Goku Jr., Vegeta Jr., and many others. Earth became known as a place for both human and saiyan genomes. The saiyan bloodline was studied more closely as time went on. It appeared that once again the saiyans would make themselves known throughout the universe, with a new home; Earth.
That is, before he came.
Small boots pounded through the snow as a young mother rushed through the howling winter winds. There was no sound to be heard except for her ragged breathing, and the pounding steps coming from behind her. The woman did not dare to look back as she sprinted across ice and snow, trying to get away from her pursuers. And in her arms lie a small child, with a curious monkey tail wrapped around her waist.
"Hold on Celara," the mother said to her child. "Just a little bit longer, I'll protect you. Your ancestors are watching over you, they won't let anything happen to you."
But as the woman said this, a thick, sharp claw came out of nowhere, scraping her back. She went down with a loud cry, landing on the ground hard but still managing to hold onto her baby tightly. Out of the darkness that surrounded her came a shrill, cruel laughter. The mother watched in horror as a creature as a creature dark as night stepped from the shadows, eyeing her child.
"Well well, what have we here?" it hissed.
"S-stay away Vinsir," the woman held her baby close as it began to cry from all the disturbance. "We've done nothing wrong."
"Oh really? Then why I are you running?" the monster cackled. In an instant it appeared before the woman and with a sharp tug, pulled the baby from her grasp.
"Celara!" she shrieked as she leapt for her child, trying to grab her from Vinsir but failing.
"Could it be because of this fiendish tail around her waist?" the evil creature laughed, ignoring the woman's cries. Unfolding the blanket, he observed the infant.
"The hospital told me everything about you and your child. I don't know how you managed to give birth to a full blooded Saiyan," Vinsir spat. "Who's her daddy? Another Saiyan? How many of you are left?! I thought I rid the world of your kind when I sent you Saiyans to Hedron."
"Please sir, just give me back my baby," the woman begged. "I didn't even know I carried the gene, neither did my husband. I don't know about other Saiyans!"
"Lies!" Vinsir yelled, causing the baby to start crying louder. "You and your child will pay for your crimes!"
"No! Please!" tears formed from the mother's eyes as the shouts of her daughter grew more desperate. Dark clouds swirled around the three, as Vinsir's cruel laughter echoed across the land. Winds stirred up the snow, blowing it around them. As Vinsir raised his hand, green energy began to form in a small ball.
"You wouldn't kill a child!" Now the woman was watching in horror, tears streaming down her face as more energy gathered in Vinsir's hand. "Why kill us, you already have control over Earth and have gotten rid of all the Saiyans on it, why not just let two live?"
"But you see my dear, I can't let you two live, especially her, not with that pure saiyan blood," the woman's dreams crashed as her breathing became ragged. Hearing Vinsir's despairing words forced more tears to flow as she collapsed on the ground. Without another word, she crawled up to Vinsir, grabbing onto his leg pathetically. Using all her inner strength, she looked up at him and begged.
"Stop," her whisper was barely audible in the wind. "Please."
"Sorry sugar, but I can't have you gathering the secret remains of your race and plotting to overthrow me later in life," Vinsir sneered. "You're not killing me and becoming Queen of this planet, or any other planet for that matter. But I'll tell you what, for the last few moments before you die, you can be Queen of the Saiyans. I'll give you that honorary title. And your little girl here can be a princess." Vinsir turned his attention to the baby. "Did you hear that, you get to be a princess before you die, isn't that fun?"
"Please," the woman continued to beg. "I don't want power, money, control, any of it. I just want my daughter."
"Don't worry, you'll have her," Vinsir spoke, the energy ball in his hand finished, "IN HELL!"
He was about to end the existence of two of the last saiyans when a bright light came from the bundle in his arms along with a loud cry. Stumbling back, Vinsir lost the energy out of surprise.
"N-no, it can't be, she's just a child, I haven't seen that form-"
While Vinsir was distracted, the woman took the opportunity. Racing up to him, she jumped and placed a firm kick into his gut, and raked her nails along his face, hitting one of his eyes with her claw like strike. With a cry, Vinsir dropped to the ground, holding his now bleeding face.
"Filthy Saiyan! Get back here! Don't even try running! I will find you! I will find you and the rest of those on Earth with that impure Saiyan gene, and I will stop at nothing to kill your daughter!"
But no one was around to hear his shouts. Once again the woman was on the run with her child, letting the darkness and snow cover her tracks as she and her daughter disappeared into the night.
The whimpers of the child died down as the light around her slowly faded. As she and her mother raced away, the infant was pulled close to her mother, hearing these words before exhaustion took her.
"Do not fear Celara. Never fear. You will always have me to protect you, and we will always have our ancestors to guide us. My little princess."
And just like that, there is a new hero born on planet Earth, already facing much challenge and persecution. Who is this evil Vinsir, and why does he have such a vendetta against the Saiyans? One thing is for certain, the legacy of Goku and Vegeta has not been forgotten, but lives on in the few Saiyans that still struggle to survive. Their legacy lives on in the life of Celara, the Saiyan Princess.
