When Frieza took over Planet Vegeta, Gardon fled in hopes of finding a new home, a planet that held hope of a future away from Frieza's rule. In his search, he came upon Earth. He landed on this green and lush planet, the return of his freedom filling his lungs with the first steps off his ship.
Gardon made a place for himself there; he rebuked his life of constant struggle and war, only fighting if absolutely necessary. He found a purpose for himself, made himself a home, and eventually fell in love. Her name was Tabitha and she was everything he had ever dreamed of in a mate. She was strong willed like most Saiyan women were, but she had a kind and sweet disposition that set her so far apart from the rest. Every inch of her was the embodiment of beauty and her silver hair made her face seem like it radiated of moonlight. In only a few short months of meeting, they were married and they were both happier than they ever thought was possible.
Ten years after his arrival on Earth, Gardon was graced with a baby girl. She was just as beautiful as her mother with the same color silver hair except for the streak of black in the front. Her eyes were as dark as her father's and he loved her from the very start.
But it seems that even good things must finally come to an end. When Gardon and Tabitha's daughter, Koi, was fourteen years old, she was helping her mother cook lunch while her father was caring for the yard. A sensation that he hadn't felt in over two decades caused the hairs on the back of his neck to raise. There was only one life form that could generate that kind of energy: a Saiyan. To be more specific, Saiyans. And Gardon could sense their energies growing closer and closer to him and his family.
Gardon rushed inside the house and begged his wife and daughter to hide in the storage room below the house, a place that Gardon knew they wouldn't be found. However, he also knew that the Saiyan blood in his daughter was beginning to surface and he prayed that the Saiyans coming wouldn't sense the growing energy inside of her. He told them he would be back soon. But even he knew that he was filling them with false hope.
He stepped out of his house to be greeted with the Prince of Saiyans himself and his goons. Vegeta stood there proud with his battle armor clinging to his bulging muscles and his minions looking as bloodthirsty as he did. Gardon did his best to negotiate with them to leave, but the Prince had other ideas in mind. He propositioned Gardon with the honor of joining him and his servants to claim Earth for their own. But Gardon knew that Vegeta's idea of claiming Earth was wiping out any being that he found lesser and the rebel Saiyan was not going to turn on the home he had come to love.
The Saiyan prince was disgusted by Gardon's tactless rejection of his offer and decided that this lesser Saiyan would be the first to feel his wrath. They sparred for what seemed like mere seconds before Vegeta had the upper hand. And a scream rang out over the landscape. Koi had witnessed the fight from the front door, her mother standing behind her with a look of terror on her face.
The Saiyan prince tried to approach the two females, but, before he could even get a step in, the young hybrid burst forth with a surge of energy and screamed for them to leave. The Saiyans quaked in terror at the sudden display of energy that was sending their scouters into overdrive. Vegeta's men beckoned for him to retreat and, with a sigh, the proud prince left with a sneer and kicked the girl's father over to his family.
The woman pulled her daughter close to her as they both wept over Gardon's lifeless body. And then and there, Koi promised herself that the next time she saw the Saiyan prince, he would breathe his last.
That was three years ago and every weekend I still visit my mother. But, I've found my own place in the world, training every day to be stronger.
Almost a year ago, I finally pinpointed Vegeta's energy and have been preparing for the day that we finally met. I feel it coming closer and closer that I can almost taste it.
Well, I hope that you guys enjoyed this first chapter. I had a hard enough time figuring out the math of the years between Frieza taking over Planet Vegeta and Vegeta coming to Earth. Such a struggle. But, I'll probably be updating a good bit the next couple of days since I've got a few days free. Please review and God bless!
