8: Sole Survivor
Vegeta woke up breathing heavily and unevenly. He had another one of those dreams. The kind where he's the sole survivor. A time where he's the only one to survive the wrath of Freiza.
Bulma felt Vegeta stir next to her. She had known he was having another nightmare. Though he wouldn't admit to his fear or vulnerability, she could always sense his distress. The blue eyed woman would ease his pain.
"I'm all that's left. He killed them all with ease! Its not fair! I will kill him! I must! Me!"
Bulma held him until he fell asleep.
Prompt 9: Determination
Determination. This is what Vegeta had to be the most powerful there ever was. It drove him to strive for more, to obtain the ultimate prize.
Strength. Speed. Agility.
Whatever it took to get the job done. Vegeta would do what he had needed to achieve his goal. Long days and sleepless nights. They'd all be worth it in the end. As long as he was granted his wish.
This individual knew he had the stamina to rise above the rest to be the best. His pride would never let him settle for anything less. He had nothing to lose.
Prompt 10: Perseverance
Nothing but carnage lay around. Everything was destroyed, maimed beyond recognition. It was as if life never existed here. How did a planet so beautiful become so barren.
A war took place. They almost all perished. Almost all. Vegeta stood alone amongst the wreckage. This was it now. The moment his perseverance saved him. He knew how to survive on his own.
He would do what came naturally. He was resilient and intelligent. Nothing would keep him down. The mighty and strong lived. That's what he would do again like before. His will kept him going as it always had.
