I do not own Dragon Ball or any of the Dragon Ball series, this is fan fiction only.
The Saiyan people since ancient times had always been an honorable and proud race, but they had one thing they did not like. That was the way the other race living on the planet treated them. This species was called the truffles and they had the good fortune of having developed high scientific knowledge, knowledge they first obtained from a crashed spaceship.
The truffles began to exploit this knowledge and quickly became quite comfortable in their places of dwelling. The problem for them, however, was that they were physically weak, the solution was one that would later prove to be the reason for their downfall and eventually their extinction.
They decided to use the Saiyans as the physical labor for their culture. Saiyans were given great demands with little to no pay for their hard work. The leader of the tribes a man named Vegeta came to realize that the truffles considered his people nothing more than beasts of burden, and treated them not as friends but as slaves.
Being the leader of his tribe he asked to speak to the Truffle King, the king accepted the meeting but it was not what Vegeta had envisioned it would be. He asked the king for better treatment, education and better wages for his people. Vegeta said that as friends they should help each other and not be abused like they were.
The truffle king found the entire conversation to be nothing if not amusing at first, but when it came down to having mass refusals to work, till their leader was taken more seriously the king believed that he should set an example to his pets. He ordered the slaughter of hundreds of Saiyans including females, young and the elderly.
Vegeta lost his first wife and their two sons to this massacre. Seeing that he had no alternative Vegeta called for his people to rise and fight for their right to live as free people, and not some pet that the truffles could kill because they disobeyed.
The war was long and bloody till the leader found out that on the nights were the moon was full, they could transform into giant apes, in this form their natural prowess as warrior multiplied by hundreds of times. It was thanks to this they killed the truffles and achieved their independence, the last thing was to name their leader king, King Vegeta the first, or Vegeta the just.
It turned out the spaceship the truffles had used to get their knowledge from was incorrectly translated. The ship surprisingly enough was written in the ancient language of the Saiyans. This lead to some of them believing that they did not come from their current planet, but one different altogether.
The Saiyans much like the truffles before them soon became a very advanced race and they began to enjoy the many comforts that their kind had only seen the truffle enjoy. By the time of the king's death they had developed a complex military code of conduct, developed interplanetary travel and had improved their technology significantly.
It was during one of these travels that a warrior traveling with his mate landed on a planet to try and establish economic trade between their world's. But the inhabitants consider them nothing more than weird looking invaders. They attacked his wife thinking that she was the weaker of the two and she was not wearing any armor since she was with child.
When her husband saw her be injured for no reason at all, he placed them in a rejuvenation capsule and sent them back to planet Vegeta, he would have gone too, but the inhabitants called his wife a coward for running away with her tail between her legs. His anger was so much that it triggered the next stage for their people, he became a super Saiyan.
The anger caused him to lose all reason and did not only destroy the inhabitants of the world but as the Saiyan ships arrived they saw as a golden giant ape blasted the planet to mere asteroids, sadly his anger proved to be his own doom.
The wife managed to give birth to a health baby boy before she too died. King Vegeta the second decided to adopt the child as his own son. He named the child Braddock, for in the ancient tongue was a name found in the ancient spaceship.
A year later his wife gave birth to a son of his bloodline, and thus he was named Vegeta. Fearing that her son would one day not be selected as the heir to the throne. She asked her husband to place his adopted son to be trained and live with other orphans, that he should not be given preferential treatment. The king refused many times till from the anger of his refusal it caused her to be come so enraged that she died of hearth failure.
The two boys were then raised as brothers by the king's second wife. It was at the time when king Vegeta was forty years of age when the self-proclaimed emperor of the Galaxy first arrived on his world. Frieza was cruel, egotistical and knew no mercy. He was supposed to come and negotiate an interplanetary trade agreement. What he did was personally kill the royal guard and enslave the entire planet.
He demanded that all able-bodied Saiyans would be sent to other worlds and conquer them I his name. To make sure that the king and his future successor obeyed him he took hostage the son of his second son who was also named Vegeta.
The first queen in her own arrogance had done Braddock a kindness, by having his name erased from the family records Frieza had no idea that the king had a second son,and so was spared the brutal treatment he gave to the royal family.
It came to pass that Braddock's son Kagaro began to rise in rank among the warrior's in Frieza's own military. He was efficient, hard-working and loved by those that served under his command. Frieza seeing the success of the young man made him captain of his own special forces, the elite of the elite of his own military.
He had to train several alien members of different races. Jeice was always the go getter, Butters was the ever loyal tactician of the group, for emotional support he had Guido, the guy was if anything ambitious but kind. The guy that had the innocence of a child, and took his missions like he was playing was Reccome. But the one to give Kagaro the most trouble was the ever weak looking guy that was made his apprentice if there was one if he died Kagaro would not miss it was Ginyu.
Ten years later he learned that he had two more brothers and was granted leave to go and visit his family. Raditz idolized his older brother and Kakarot was still in diapers. Kagaro loved the child as soon as they first met. His father informed him that there was something strange going on the planet, many of their best warriors had been sent on suicide missions and died.
"Son, I don't like this one bit, ever since my father's death and my brother became king, Lord Frieza has been most cruel to our people, something made him harsher than he used to be. Watch your back my son, as a high ranking warrior I fear that he might try to do the same to you. "
Kagaro put little Kakarot in his crib. " Worry not father, I too have noticed the changes and will not be caught off guard. Lord Frieza thinks I do not notice but I have. He has been having secret meetings with that fool of an apprentice of mine. I expect he will try to betray me soon, so I prepared for such eventuality. "
" Kakarot has been deemed a low class warrior and he will more than likely be sent to conquer a planet with a moon, I will never understand the reason for sending our young while they are infants and not even trained. "
Kagaro told him that it might be a genocide plan. To kill off the young that could not defend themselves," I thought of that as well, but it makes no sense, we are the mightiest warriors in his forces, why would he wish to eliminate us if we are so useful? It just does not make any sense. "
Kagaro promised if he found out anything he would send him an encrypted message using the ancient tongue. Kagaro hugged his brother Raditz and gave a big kiss on the forehead to little baby Kakarot." Train hard baby brother and return to us one day. "
Kagaro walked towards the palace and he reported that he was called by the Lord." Ah Kagaro my boy, good to see that you are as punctual as ever. I am sorry to interrupt your time with your siblings but I have an urgent mission that only you and your apprentice can do. "
Kagaro kneeled in front of Frieza and waited for the idiot to arrive. When he did Ginyu broke out in an almost ridiculous little dance and he kneeled next to his mentor." Ginyu, how many times must I tell you to behave with proper respect specially in front of our Lord. You shame me with such idiotic antics. I apologize Lord Frieza be assured he will be punished for such behavior. "
" Oh, nonsense that little dance was quite amusing. I forbid you to punish my jester for making my hard day better with his little entertaining dance. But on to better things, you two shall leave immediately and scout a planet for possibility of taking possession of it. Our initial records show it has no intelligent life, but we need to be certain. I await your successful report. "
They both saluted Frieza and were about to leave." On second thought I need to speak with Ginyu about any future little dance demonstrations. I was so amused I might consider having him become my official court jester. Be on your way Kagaro I will be done with him soon enough. "
Kagaro left the two alone and when he was far away enough." Ginyu, remember my orders and your potentially reward. Kill your mentor and prove to me you are more worthy to lead my special forces. " Ginyu smiled as he heard that." It will be my pleasure, my master. "
The gravity on the planet proved to be several hundred times stronger there than on Vegeta. Kagaro was having a hard time walking on the surface as he began doing the initial scans of the planet surface. It was very volcanic and it had long days and nights. It made you feel like you were boiling in the day time, so he could only guess that it must be freezing during night time.
"Mentor, I am sorry to keep you waiting. Lord Frieza has some rather interesting ideas for future dance demonstrations. " Kagaro continued to do his duty, which proved to be a mistake. As Ginyu walked behind him to begin some deep scans he used the scanner to stab him in the back. The Deep scanner had a harpoon part that would bury into the ground to take scans of the tectonic plates of the world.
"Ginyu, how dare you betray me. I WILL SEE YOU PAY FOR THIS TREASON." Ginyu began to laugh his angry words. "I think not fool. I was ordered to kill you by Lord Frieza himself. I will be taking this scouter, you will not be needing it where you are going. But just so that you know your race is next on the chopping block. Something scared Lord Frieza enough to wish your entire species killed. "
" That has to be a lie, we are his strongest warriors. " Ginyu kicked him where it would hurt the most." Like I care what a corpse says. I am leaving you here to bleed to death on this lifeless hunk of rock. I hope you suffer before you go to hell. "
Kagaro was left bleeding as he watched Ginyu destroy his pod and took off in his own towards the planet Vegeta. Night time came and his guess proved to be correct, but it also proved that the intelligent life on the planet was nocturnal. A young woman saw him on the ground bleeding, she has scales for skin, and snake shaped eyes, but she was also very gentle in her touch of him.
He woke up later suffering a high fever, the young woman was washing his sweat away from him with a wet towel. "you are awake, our healer feared the worst and was getting to do our funeral rituals. I told him that I would not give up so easily. I have been tending your injuries ever since."
"Why are you doing so much for a complete stranger, and one you must find hideous. " She began laughing and she was smiling as she continued to tend to his fever." On the contrary, I find you to be rather handsome, and strong to survive such an injury. I am a seer of my people, and I had a vision of your arrival. That is why I was able to find you so quickly. Why would I not do this for my destined one?"
"Destined one? " Kagaro did not understand." In my vision I saw the arrival of my soul mate. My destined mate, the man who is to be my husband and I hope father of our children. My destined one. "
So he was not rescued by chance so it seems, if I what she said was to be believed." Thank you all the same, because of my apprentice's treachery I am going to be on this planet for quite awhile. I will need to speak to your father so that I may gain employment. I will not be a burden on you or anyone else. "
She touched her forehead to his, " First you must heal, there will be enough time to talk to my father later. No rest and let me get more ointment for this wound. " Kagaro closed his eye. She kissed his lips as he fell asleep." It seems I have quite the honorable mate, I do hope the second part of the vision does not come to pass, I think I will be very happy with him. "
