A lone warrior prince stalks through the long, cold corridors of a
spaceship. He moves sleekly, his muscles flexing underneath the blue spandex of
his uniform. One destination is set deep in his mind; the Observatory, where his
"master" is residing.
Even though his age is young and his stature small, the other warriors of
Freeza know not to step into the prince's path. His powers and skills are rarely
outmatched, and his arrogant pride can lead to fatal consequences for his
rivals.
He steps into the Observatory, seeing Freeza in his hover chair, looking out
into the dark vastness of space. Easily, the "master" senses the newcomer's
presence. "You'll never know the great rapture that comes from holding an entire
universe in the palm of your hand, Vegeta. Only the feeling of knowing you
barely helped me in gaining this control will be in your grasp, little Saiyan."
Vegeta glowers at the back of Freeza's head, as thoughts of overthrowing and
destroying Freeza race through his head. One day, I will destroy you, Freeza,
and take my rightful place as supreme ruler. It is my destiny.
"I have a task for you, Vegeta." Freeza's hover chair rotates slowly,
lowering to the ground, and facing the Saiyan Prince. "I want you to convince
the people of Torinosu to follow under my reign. You know what to do if they
refuse our offer, of course. With or without their allegiance, the planet is
quite valuable."
"Yes, Freeza." Vegeta's voice murmurs out low, yet strongly. He looks
intensely at the abomination in front of him, not giving him the satisfaction of
bowing in obedience.
"Don't fail me, Vegeta. The Chourui will be powerful allies." Vegeta nods,
barely, in agreement. "Now go. Leave immediately and keep us updated on the
situation." Freeza turns back away from Vegeta with a deviant smile across his
wicked face.
Vegeta turns and leaves the Observatory, haste in his step, as he moves
towards the "Mess Hall" in order to assemble a small force to aide in his
mission.
The doors of the Mess Hall slide open effortlessly as he steps in front of
it, before entering the room. "Nappa. Raditz." His voice bellows out, causing
two men to jump straight up into attention. "We have a mission. Gather the
minimal neccessities and meet me in the pod room, now."
"But, Vegeta, we just sat down to eat. What's a few gulps of food gonna
matter?" The giant, bald saiyan warrior steps toward Vegeta, almost double his
size.
Vegeta growls low in his throat. "I refuse to sit by and watch you stuff
your mouth when there is a mission to be done." His hands ball into fists by his
sides, the anger flaring up inside him. "I'm not going to tell you again, Nappa.
We are leaving, immediately."
"Yes, Vegeta." Nappa sighs just barely, in defeat. His stomach lets out its
own growl.
Vegeta turns and exits the Mess Hall, moving further down the corridor.
How dare Nappa even attempt to slack in his duties. His feet pound the
floor as he walks, trying to regain composure over his anger.
One of Freeza's minions walk past Vegeta, brushing his shoulder just barely
with his own arm.
With a quick, flawles motion, Vegeta focuses his energy into a small,
explosive ball and lets it loose upon the alien. The incredible force of the
blast sends the alien reeling down the corridor until he can no longer be seen.
An impish smirk curls up on Vegeta's lips, his inner self feeling satisfied
now.
He continues on his way to the pod room, not moving out of anyone's way, and
giving them the same treatment as he did the other alien if any did not move
back from his path.
Moments later, the Prince walks into the pod room. He looks the space pods
over. Each one cyclical with only one window to view outside. He moves over to
one. Almost magically, the door of the pod opens to the floor, revealing inside
a chair and a small computer console. Vegeta steps inside the pod, seating
himself in the chair and waiting on his two allies to arrive.
Minutes pass by, and with each passing, Vegeta grew more and more angry and
impatient. "If Nappa is still stuffing that fat..."
Before his sentence finishes muttering from his mouth, Nappa and Raditz walk
into the pod room, both with legs of meat in their hands, their teeth ripping at
the flesh.
"Its about time you two half-wits decided to join this mission." Vegeta
scowls at them. "Now get in your pods." He leans back in his seat, the door to
his pod automatically closing.
Raditz and Nappa both get into their pods, tossing the bones of their food
aside on the floor.
As soon as all three are situated in their pods, a portal in the ship opens
out into space and the pods are projected out into space at lightning speeds.
"Course heading, Prince Vegeta?" A female, electronic voice sounds out from
within the pod.
"The planet Torinosu." Vegeta sat back further into his chair, closing his
eyes, letting his body go into a deep sleep as they travel a year and a half to
their destination.
