Wake Me Up Inside

Chapter One

"Urza am I to believe that you fled and left my father to perish to save your own worthless skin?" Frieza's eyes flashed menacingly as he stood.

He had just been informed that the great King Cold had been defeated in battle, while attempting to overtake the planet Vegetasei. Frieza clenched his cold marble hands into fists.

"My Lord, I panicked…I came to you for reinforcements I-"

"Stop your sniveling…I expected nothing less from a cowardly insect such as yourself."

Frieza scoffed as crossed his arms and strode towards control station.

"So this is the planet where my father met his unfortunate end." Frieza's lip curled into a scowl, as he peered up at the dark red orb occupying the monitor.

"Yes, Lord Frieza, it was their King, King Vegeta and the young Prince." The small lizard like creature wheezed at his side.

"King Vegeta hmm, I suppose we shall be paying him a visit…a young prince you say?" He raised a white hand to his chin. "Prepare my ship."

"Yes my lord, would you like me to summon the army as well?"

"No not yet, I have something much more amusing in mind…"He grinned. "One must observe the enemy for weakness…Not simply attack like a wild animal… That was always my fathers only flaw…All brute force and no common sense…This King Vegeta has an Achilles' heel and I will find it… Besides what is revenge without a little entertainment?"

"Entertainment?"

"Yes Entertainment…He has taken something dear to me, now I shall take what is dear to him."

"Hey Gohan did you hear?!"Goten smiled widely as he scampered toward his little brother.

Gohan glanced up at Goten as he lay lazily in the grass. "Huh?"

"The royals are throwing a big ball tonight in to celebrate the defeat of King Cold."

"Sounds like fun…"Gohan yawned, "wish we were invited."

"Who said we had to be invited?"Gohan said with a mischievous grin." It's a masked ball"

Gohan frowned instantly. "No way Goten, if you want to be beheaded go right ahead but you're in it alone! Were third class we are not allowed in the palace! You know that!"

"Come on Gohan don't be a spoilsport!" Goten whined, "your not really going to make me go all by myself!"

His frown deepend, "Goten your always getting me into trouble!" This was true.

"Don't say that! Your hair grew back didn't it!?"

Gohan sweatdropped. "I'll go but only to make sure you return alive."

"Just think about all the pretty girls that will be there!" Goten winked.

"Your impossible" Gohan sighed.

A/N:Okey dokey…R/R other chapters will be longer I promise!
