Prologue

The day was pleasantly cool. A small breeze blew threw a small cave, off the coast of West City, the water rising quickly with the tide. Not that it would have bothered the small occupant inside the cave. The sounds of waves could either be soothing or it could set off hellish nightmares of events past. Deep inside the cave, lit up by the glow of small crystals lining the walls, was a young male, curled into a tight little ball. He looked no older then maybe 18 years old, surrounded by an ageless green glowing crystal. His long black, flowing hair covered his muscular frame, where time had eaten away at his cloths. His skin may have held a once beautiful tan but now he was as pale and radiant as the full moon.

Only once had his small prison moved when his home planet had exploded. His only ability, at the time, was to create a shield to protect himself from the explosion and the fire that followed the explosion. Now his fragile prison rested on an unknown planet, his fathers scouter held firmly in his hands, close to his heart. In the darkness of his mind, he felt the familiar pull of an unfamiliar mind. His mind was of his own creation. Traps and other dangers were laid out for any intrusions that were a constant threat to him. This mind however, seemed to be familiar with his set up. Like they had done the same patterns or had been in his mind enough times to get past his defenses but never tried to go into his memories like that of a normal enemy. This he found comfort in.

~Who…. Who are you, stranger?~ He asked, deep in the darkness of his mind where he knew the persons mind would be not long from now. ~What is it that you seek? ~

Chapter one

Life begins again

A young man lay out on the sandy beach off the coast of West City, his home. His blue eyes were turned to the sky as clouds drifted by. Today he was thinking yet again about the pull in the back of his mind. He always came to the beach to think. It seemed to help ease his mind. Today he was going to figure out what the mind wanted and what it meant. He sighed and put his hands behind his head. He had to move his hair out of the way to do so. He had let his hair grow out. It rested almost to his mid back now. He wore a short bluish purple jacket over a black wife beater and blue jeans. His feet were covered in his black boots.

~Who…. Who are you stranger? ~ A voice spoke quietly in his mind, almost afraid. ~What is it that you seek? ~

The young man sat up straight, surprised at the male's voice. ~My name is Trunks Briefs. Son to Vegeta and Bulma Briefs. What is your name? ~

Trunks waited for a few minutes before lying back down again, this time closing his eyes. ~Na…name? ~

~Yes. You're name. What are you called? ~ Trunks asked as he felt his mind wander yet again to the darkness that he had become familiar with. ~I mean no harm. I just want to know who you are. ~

~You… You don't know?~ He asked as Trunks entered what appeared to be a small cave in the darkness, waves crashing loudly, making it hard to hear or speak. ~You're not after my powers? ~

~Why would I want your powers when I have power of my own? ~ This confused Trunks.

He looked about the small cave. From what he saw it was lightly lit up by crystals lining the walls. His eyes fell upon a rather large crystal, cloudy and slightly see threw. Inside was a young man, no older then he was. His eyes widened slightly. He was not used to seeing a young man in this state. He stepped up to the green crystal and placed a hand on it. A pulse ran threw his hand and he blinked, jumping back a moment.

The young male remained silent. What Trunks didn't know, was that he had teleported into the cave before the one that called out to him. He felt another pulse after placing his hand back on the crystal and stared. Through the pulse he felt fear, pain, and confusion. Another pulse sent a strange calling of freedom. He took a deep breath and pushed all his energy into the crystal, hoping to calm the man. Instead, the crystal cracked and he had to jump back, throwing his arms up just in time to protect himself from the explosion that the power surge created. Trunks felt his back slam against the cave wall and darkness soon followed.

Vegeta's Perspective

Vegeta was in the gravity chamber his wife had created so many years ago for him, fighting his long time friend and crush, Son Goku. Vegeta had always called him by his real name, Kakarot. He took a swing at the man's face and readied himself for a hit in the stomach, when a sudden power spike caught his and his partner's attention. It was his son's energy, but what followed his son's energy disturbance, was an unfamiliar yet familiar power spike that wavered. It was almost like it wasn't used to the power. Vegeta stopped mid punch and stepped back to look at his training partner. Goku nodded. He was going to check out this new power surge.

Not long after the silent agreement, the two men were flying through the air towards the small beach Trunks had said he was going to be. It was his thinking place. Vegeta didn't know what to expect. Was his son dead? Was he ok? Vegeta shook his head and missed the concerned look Goku gave him. Soon they landed on the beach but didn't find the young genius anywhere. This worried Vegeta until he noticed a small cave part way under water. Dread filled him and before he could take a step towards the cave, a young male with long flowing black hair waded out of the cave, a young lavender haired male in his arms. Worry was on the males face. He stopped and nearly dropped Vegeta's son but managed to keep a hold of him as he lifted one hand to shield himself from the sun.

The young male waited a moment in the waist high water with Trunks' head held above the water before he walked away to the shore, able to see once more. His movement awed the Saiyan prince. It was almost majestic. Vegeta blinked at the image in his mind then shook his head. There was no way this child could be the great dragons child, could he? Vegeta looked back at the child as he looked up at the sky, his hair sliding back behind his pointed ears. Vegeta's eyes widened at the sight. It was unthinkable and yet here was the proof. The thing that made him wonder more was the tail that came out of the boys back end. The tail was made of green and black fur but wet, almost all black. The green was just barely visible.

The young youth looked at Vegeta and paused; now in knee high water and held the lavender haired boy close to his chest as if afraid of what he would do to this man in his arms. Vegeta took one step toward the dragon child, but he stepped back from him before looking down at the youth in his arms.

"V… Vegeta?" He whispered with a horse voice that hadn't been used for so long.

Vegeta blinked as he nodded to the boy as he looked back at him. "Trunks is my son. What happened to him?"

"T...Trunks? P…Power into crystal. Explosion… Water rising with tides. Had to get out." He tried to explain but he ended up coughing halfway through before finishing. "Mate could have died if no help."

"Mate?" Vegeta's mouth fell open at the word and the dragon child nodded. "Can you talk to him in his mind and him you?"

The dragon child, nodded glad to give his sore throat a break. Trunks began to stir and he looked down.

Trunks' perspective, inside his mind

It was dark. All I remember was an explosion from the crystal I had put my energy into. What had happened? Had I died? It felt like it. I remember hitting the wall but that shouldn't have killed me. I'm a Saiyan. A Saiyan prince none the less. With a sigh I look around at the dark emptiness that was clearly my mind. I thought of my room and the darkness shifted to that of my room. I was standing in the middle of a dark maroon room. My bed was over in the corner by the window and my nightstand of dark cherry wood, was next to the bed with the lamp and alarm clock. I had expected it to go off, to let me know I had been dreaming again but it didn't go off. I looked around and more cherry wood dressers lined the far wall. There was a door to my bathroom and everything in there was just as I had left it. Clean and organized. Just how I like it.

I felt something tighten around me and knew I would wake soon. Was it my father? No. Fathers grip was tighter than this one. This one was soft. Goku? No I can tell Goku's arms from anyone else's. His muscles are soft yet firm. So then who was it that held me? I needed to find out fast. It was starting to get cold.

~Who is this man? ~ Came the sweet voice of the male in my mind, the same male I had been talking to.

I looked up just in time to see the image of my room change to that of my thinking spot by the cave, but the difference was a male I didn't recognize at first standing with a taller man. Both were hazy at first but soon I found myself chuckling as they became clear.

~That is Vegeta and Goku. ~ I said with a smile moving to stand by the man who had asked the question. ~The short one is Vegeta, Prince of the Saiyans, and the tall one is Goku. Both are protectors of Earth. Vegeta is my father. He may have this….rough...exterior but he is rather sweet when he wants to be. ~

I watched as the man nodded. I smiled as he looked back at the man, letting me see through his eyes. I looked back at the man and reached out a hand and moved his hair behind his ear. I blinked at the pointed ear but smiled. So the one I spoke to was unique? I liked that.

"Mate?" I heard my father stutter. "Do you talk to him in his mind and he in yours?"

This confused me. What did that mean? What does having to talk to people in their minds have to do with mating? And what is the deal with mates anyways? Don't animals mate? I don't think they can talk to each other in their minds. Body language maybe.

I felt the arms tighten around me and I couldn't help but smile. I felt safe in these arms. I wander if they are the man's that I talked to. Was he holding me? Soon I felt a blast of cold air and when I looked back through the man's eyes, I saw the ground speeding by under him. To my surprise I saw lavender. Long lavender hair trailing over the males arm and a sleeping male in his arms. Wait. He's not sleeping. My eyes opened wide when I realized that I was looking at myself. There were scratches all over my face.

Concern suddenly filled me when I saw my chest. A rather large clear crystal was peeking out of my back through my chest. It wasn't from the crystal that the man was in. I felt myself start to panic. Was I dying?

"Calm self Trunks or will die. Get home. Heal." Came the horse voice above me from the man who held me close, yet so tenderly.

I gulped and tried to calm down. I looked away. Pain wracked my body as I looked away. Everything went black yet again. It felt as though my chest had caved in. Must be where the crystal was.

~Where are we going? ~ I asked trying to keep myself calm. ~Will I live? ~

Dragon child's perspective (Ryuunotsuke)

~Where are we going? ~ Trunks asked and I could tell he was trying his best to stay calm. ~Will I live? ~

~Yes you will live, beloved. If I don't do something fast however then there may not be another chance. We are heading to Vegeta's home. ~ I replied having trouble with the short elder man's name that I was following. ~I am working on helping you as we fly. ~

~Beloved? ~ I felt more then heard his confusion.

~Yes beloved. That is what we Dragon Children call our mates. Does this bother you?~ I asked trying to explain to the child that was suffering in my arms.

~No. No it doesn't. ~ He said and seemed to both visibly and mentally calm. ~So it was you in that crystal that I got to know? ~

~Yes beloved, it was. ~ I said with a visible smile that made Vegeta look at me with wander and I knew he was wandering if we were talking. ~I am glad you took the time to get to know me and shared your memories. ~

~But I…Oh never mind. ~ I heard him chuckle. ~Will I get to see yours since you saw mine? ~

I looked down at the man in my arms and saw that he somehow had managed to smile through the pain he was in. This made me feel better. I opened my mind to the man and saw him wince a little. It was the first time he had looked into the memories of another being. I eased back a little and let him pick and choose but all was an open book to him. Even that of who my father was. Even how old I was, wasn't hidden from him.

I was at least 100x his young age. I looked down at him and saw the awe and confusion on his face when he realized just how old I was. He was more confused at the power I hid away. Scared of what it would do. To tell the truth, I was the most powerful being that ever roamed the universe and it scared me to death. I was even more powerful then my own people. I turned red eyes to look at the one called Goku. He had been eyeing me for a while now.

"Why you stare?" I asked him and he blinked.

"Oh its nothing. Just not used to seeing someone else who doesn't care about who sees him naked. Vegeta was the only one I knew that did that for a while." He said then placed a hand on his chin in thought. "Wonder why that changed?"

"What had changed other than that?" I asked starting to feel better, throat not as sore.

"Well, I started hearing what he was thinking after our wives passed away about the same time. Scared me at first." He said face serious. "I got used to it after a while though and it helps me find out if he is ok after a battle or not. That and if he did die I can still talk to him on the other end without the help of King Kai."

"King Kai? That old fart is still alive?" I asked with a chuckle before I had a voice screaming in my head making me laugh.

"What do you mean old fart you brat?!" came his voice and I had to laugh again, turning my back to the ground, holding Trunks a little closer to me so he wouldn't move as I looked at the sky.

"Well you are older than I am. Grandpa." I replied and got a chuckle form Vegeta and Goku off to my right. "See? Even they agree. Though I do have to admit you are a good trainer."

My face softened as his voice quieted. I looked to Vegeta. He was looking at Goku who had gone a little ahead of us, deep in thought. Vegeta had a small blush on his face. He knew what the sharing of thoughts meant. He and Goku were mates. Yet he just couldn't admit to it, just yet. He was still hurting from his human mate's death. He did love her, as Goku loved his mate. This much was obvious. According to Trunks' memories, Vegeta had two children. One younger then both of Goku's children. Goku's youngest was his best friend.

I looked down at Trunks, whose mind went quiet. He was searching my memories and had slowed down on one memory in particular.

Ryuunotsuke's memory.

I walked down the hallway to the observatory. I had been called for something important. For being the Prince of the Dragons, I had a lot of duties. I sighed as I turned the corner and my eyes flew open when I ran into someone, falling to the ground with a grunt. I looked up and saw the councilor. I stood up and bowed my apologies. I turned my back to the wall and let him pass. Once he was out of sight I stuck my tongue out at him. Once I was King he would be gone. I didn't like him. He manipulated people and hated that he couldn't manipulate me.

I turned again and walked the rest of the way to the observatory. Holding my wrist out, I placed my bracelet on the scanner, it took a moment to scan. At first it was a green light then it turned red. I was confused at first. The only reason it would turn red was if it was downloading data to the bracelet. With a sigh I waited till it was finished downloading. It seemed to take forever.

"Download complete." The monotone voice of the computer said.

"Finally." I said and opened the door to walk in to a mad rush of people flying left and right. "What in the world? What is going on here?"

"You're Majesty! Sorry to call you down on such short notice, but we have a crisis. Freeza is on his way here for our technology. We had to download it into your bracelet, so that he doesn't get it. We are going to have to seal you away in a living crystal for a bit so that he doesn't find you. We wiped out all our information after downloading it." The Head Researcher said.

I watched him as he worked and spoke. His long dark brown hair was turning grey from the stress. Freeza. I narrowed my eyes at the screen showing space and a rather large ship that was Freeza's. I knew why Freeza wanted the knowledge that my people held. It was for his own greed. Knowledge on other races and of our own people. Weaknesses and strengths. I knew of one person who would give all that power to Freeza, and he was outside the room listening.

"Brother? How is it that Freeza even knows about the knowledge that we hold?" I asked in casual wonder.

"Well there is only one possibility. Someone has been leaking information to the crazed maniac." My brother, Ryotsuki, head of the research team, stated. "I think we both know who it is."

I looked into his eyes and we both nodded. It was him after all. This had to be dealt with or all will be lost. I looked about the research lab and a rather large green crystal caught my eye.

"Is that where I will be placed? That is the living crystal?" I asked walking up to it and placing a hand on it.

"Yes. We believed that since you were one with the planet it would protect you." Ryotsuki said placing a hand on my shoulder.

"I thought you would want to be the first to jump on this opportunity."

I watched as the crystal slowly made its way over my hand like that in the cave I loved so much. So they had found the living crystal that had chosen me. This made me smile. The only way you can tell if the planet has chosen you was to wander into the Cave of Living Crystal at the age of 5. If you were blocked from entering then you were not the one the planet chose. If you could enter, then the planet had high plans for you in the future. Our planet is a living thing. Not just some round thing we lived on. It provided us with food and we returned the favor by doing all that we could to keep it clean and alive.

We built around the trees that grew and around the oceans. We never cut any down nor did we make dams unless the planet agreed to it through the chosen one. I was the only child to ever make it into the cave and because of that I had lived as long as the planet telling people what she said. Being one with the planet is a blessing. Right now she was screaming in fright that her child would not live. Her child being me. You see. I had died in that cave, after entering. I tripped and fell on the Living Crystal and was stabbed through the chest. Instant death right?

Well, not for me. I was awake when the green crystal incased me and healed me. My green eyes turned red, the color of our seas and my blond hair turned midnight black. My tail, which was solid black, had turned green on top from where the green crystal fused with me. I had passed out at that point. When I woke up again I heard yelling at the entrance of the cave. My parents. They knew something had happened to their son. As well as they should. I had grown to look like a young male about 18-20 years of age. I looked at my hands. They were bigger then I had remembered. I stood up and had to duck. I was taller than before. My mind however was what had changed the most.

My head had been swarming with memories that weren't my own. Memories of pain, suffering and screams that went unheard from the ones living on me. I knew then just whose memories that I was looking at. It was the planets. I felt a hand on my shoulder and jumped, being pulled back to the present. I looked at Ryotsuki and smiled.

"Sorry brother. Just thinking of the 'childhood' I had." I said with a small smile.

He chuckled, catching on to what I was thinking of. "How is she feeling now?"

"Scared. For me. For everyone. But she knows that only one can survive what is going to happen when Freeza shows up." I turned to look out the window overlooking the large lake outside. "Freeza will destroy her. Because he can't get the information he wants, he will destroy the planet so no one can have it. From what she saw, I will have it and Freeza will not know about it. I will be sent to my mate, who will live as long as me and to their family that will use the knowledge for good."

"Sounds complicated if you ask me."

"Yeah but after going through what I did? Complicated is my normal." I chuckled lightly. "I've gotten used to it a long time ago. Considering that I became centuries older than you in an instant."

"This is true. But you're still my twin brother, no matter how old you became or what you became, oh powerful Wish Bringer."

I chuckled again at his little joke. Though I knew it was true. I could grant wishes, just like our father who vanished before we were born. I saw through the memories of the planet that our father was the first dragon of our race. He had came back after his long absence and found his mate. She had died during child birth. He vanished yet again and has not yet returned. The people taking care of us are two of the ten councilors that had been appointed king and queen, since the death of our mother. I didn't have it in me to tell my brother the truth. He was too young then and even now I still cannot tell him.

"So when do you launch me?"

"As soon as you have eaten and are clothed better than your normal silk robes."

"I see. To blend in more?"

"Yeah. Need to keep you safe and out of sight." He looked to me with true father like concern. "I want you to live brother. Your our only hope for our race's survival."

"I understand."

Truth was. I was terrified. When this is all over I would be the last of my race other then father, where ever he was at. I looked out the window again and my hand moved to the bracelet on my left wrist. All the knowledge of my people on my wrist in living metal that only responds to me. Well it was safe but what about me? What would my mate be like? What race would they be if not a child of the Dragon Children? Will I even like her? Is it a her? I had so many questions but they would have to go unanswered for now. I felt a strange pull that made me dizzy and I had to sit down. It was strong that much was certain.

"Brother?"

"I'm ok, Ryotsuki. Just a dizzy spell."

"The mating one or just because of stress?"

I chuckled at his concern. "I believe mate. It's a strong pull. In need of protection and so very young. Newborn I think."

"You mean your mate was just born?"

"Yeah. Remember? The high ones have plans for us all. Like you found your mate over two years ago but never could bear a child?"

"Yes I remember. That was a sign. When the woman could no longer bare children the world or race will die out save one. That's what the prophecy had said."

"Prophecy. It's an amazing thing isn't it?"

"Yeah it is. It foretold all of this before it even happened."

I closed my eyes as I felt the tug again. Stronger this time. This mind was strong as well as smart. I opened my mind to the child and was surprised when the child appeared before me. Lavender hair was ruffled up on top of his head and large sky blue eyes looked back at me in awe and wander. I could tell that he knew. He knew even before he had the chance to see the world that I was his. We were one. Mates for life. In my mind I tried to imagine him older but I just couldn't do it. I guess I wasn't allowed to know. I smiled to the baby before me and walked over to him. He reached up his arms to me as if to say he needed me. I picked him up and he clung to me, frightened by something.

~What's the matter young one? ~ I asked in his mind, careful not to be to load.

He started for a moment then looked me in the eyes. ~D..Dying? ~

This confused me. He was able to talk even before he was born. Well thought wise anyways. I guess the High Ones wanted me to have a smart mate to match me and keep up with me. I smiled at the young boy and hugged him close.

~No little one. I am not Dying. The planet, my home, is dying. ~

He tilted his head and then made a little gurgle that babies do. I giggled knowing what he wanted. He wanted to see her. In all her glory. I turned and as we turned the black darkness turned into a large version of my home as seen from space. Its large blood red oceans and the violet skies with lavender clouds floating ever so lazily through the sky. The young child babbled again holding his hands out to the image. I smiled and then the image shifted to where we were standing in my favorite spot near the blood red ocean and a small cave off to our right.

"This is my favorite thinking spot. I come here to talk with our planet and to think about my life and all the changes I have gone through."

I smiled as he babbled back then yawned. I hugged him again and then held him up high to get a good look at him. His large sky blue eyes were droopy from being tired and he stuck his hand in his mouth like all children do. I kissed his forehead before he vanished from my arms, asleep on his end. I opened my eyes and nearly jumped out of my light red skin.

"Ryo! Don't scare me like that."

"Well you scared me. Going silent then smiling out of the blue. What's going on?"

"Let's just say my mate is a rather smart little one. I can't wait to meet him when he is older."

"Him? Your mate is a male?"

"So it would seem. A cutie too. Lavender hair, like our clouds, eyes as blue as can be. Intelligent. That's a bonus. Oh and he had a small brown tail. A Saiyan. I think. So my mate is powerful or will be."

"This is a good thing. At least you will be safe with him."

I nodded. Not much else to say. I knew what I had to do. I stood up and found my way back to a small room set out for me. I smiled at the maroon robes similar to the ones I had on. These ones were heavier though. Being of a different material then silk. I turned to look at my brother.

"The mother, our planet, sent those for you. She knew you liked red so that's what you got."

"I would take any colors that she was willing to give me."

I took off my silk robes and replaced them with the maroon robes. In my mind he had his own mind awakened. He was looking through my eyes. I got the feeling that he loved the Maroon color. I heard him giggle and babble.

~Pwetty.~ He giggled in my head, causing me to smile again as I looked in the mirror beside me.

~Me or the robes, beloved? ~

~Bosh.~ He giggled and in his mind he hugged me tightly. ~Bosh pwetty. ~

I blushed slightly and looked down, eyes closed and loved the feelings he was sending me. Baby or not. He was smart and knew exactly what speaking to me in my mind meant. I took a deep breath and walked back out to eat. Once that was done, I nervously stepped to the green crystal. This was the last time I would see the light of day on my planet. I looked out the window to our blue sun and was immediately reminded of my mate's eyes. I smiled.

~We will meet again beloved. Maybe not today but maybe when you are older. Be brave and wait for me. ~

End memory

I looked down at the man in my arms and smiled for the first time since that day. He now knows what I know and what I held inside for so long. When we had finally spoken to each other not so long ago, according to his memories, two years ago, I didn't recognize his grown up voice or his new looks. To me he was a familiar stranger. His hair the same color as the clouds of my home, eyes as blue as our sun and the intelligence of ten, to one hundred men. His strength had increased 10 fold.

I looked over at Vegeta, who was watching us with interest. I felt something pushing at the back of my mind and became curious. I looked back down at the man and kissed his forehead, like I had done so long ago when he was first born and he smiled, sighing softly. Even though he may be dying, he was still beautiful. His mind was still as strong as ever, which told me he will live. By the time we got to Vegeta's home it was dark out. My red eyes glowed in the dark but that didn't matter. I could see clearly. I followed Vegeta into the house, to a small lab where a strange machine sat in the corner.

"Put him in there. It will heal him up. Saiyan grade. Best there is." Vegeta said pointing to the machine.

"Let me try something first."

I laid Trunks on the table gently. I knew it would hurt my beloved but I had to try. If he passed on the table then I could just use my powers to bring him back. I knew this but I didn't want to rely on them. I took a deep breath, eyes closed. I didn't like the idea of hurting my mate. I nearly jumped out of my skin when I felt something touch my cheek. I opened my eyes to see blue eyes looking back at me.

~Don't worry about me, beloved. Just do what you can to save my body. ~

I felt my face grow warm at both his touch and what he had called me. I nodded and closed my eyes again. Trunks rubbed my cheek for a few more moments before his arm gave out and he rested it across his stomach. I took a deep breath to calm myself then placed my hand on the clear crystal lightly.

~"Mother planet that I now call home, if you can hear me please don't let my beloved mate die. Please help me save his life and in return I shall try to help you."~

Under my hand the clear crystal started to glow along with my whole body. The green on my tail shifted and vanished all together. The clear crystal turned green from the mineral from my home planet and soon began to shrink. As the crystal shrank so did his wounds. It was painful, this I could feel. Trunks' back arched off the table and his hands clenched the table, bending and ripping it apart. His eyes snapped open to glow green. His skin tinted green and his mouth opened and he let out a heart wrenching scream. I tried to work quickly so he wouldn't have to feel it for long but I could only go as fast as the Mother Planet would allow me to work.

Vegeta tried to stop me but the blood red glow of my eyes made him back away. Vegeta, worried sick turned from his son to bury his face in Goku's chest, not wanting to hear his son. I didn't blame him. I wouldn't want to hear my own children scream. I turned back to Trunks. At this point his wound was half the size it was before. Trunks let out another scream and this time he powered up to Super Saiyan. This seemed to help the progress. Trunks' eyes went white and his back arched more off the table into my hand as the crystal vanished and the green returned to my tail. It was up to me now. I took another deep breath and closed my eyes, placing my other hand over my first. With this I pushed my energy into him, causing another heart wrenching scream to pierce the silence that followed. My tail went down and curled around my legs, tightly. I hated this. I really hated this. Not only will I be weakened but my beloved would be out cold for who knows how long. I felt my legs waver but I stayed up. I opened my eyes just in time to see his wound heal fully and him power down back to normal, eyes closed. He was still as though knocked out but lightly glowing from my green energy.

That's when I fell to my knees. When he had stopped screaming and was now asleep. Vegeta was at my side in an instant, worry and concern on his face. I held up a hand to stop him then slowly made my way back to my feet to sit in a chair he brought over to me.

"Get him in the machine Saiyan. I will be fine. The machine should help with the final process."

"Final process?"

"Yes. He has to sleep off the strange energy and on top of that the Living Green Crystal of my home planet. It left some of its mineral in him to help him heal."

Vegeta nodded, not fully understanding but did as he was told. It would be some time before the young boy would wake. I needed that time to recover.
