AN: Beware, this first chapter has a lot of gore! Those weak of stomach probably shouldn't read this! Okay it's not that bad, but just warning you.

Chapter 1: Base camp

Disclaimer: I don't own DBZ, but a girl can dream right?

I woke to the sounds of shuffling and swore to myself. I stretched deeply, then shot out of bed. My roommate was fast asleep and I chuckled while I threw on my uniform. I looked at myself in the mirror, making sure my hair was still just above the collar line and that my uniform was aligned. I shoved on my boots then grabbed one of my roommate's and threw it at her. She stirred slightly, but didn't wake. I sighed, rolling my eyes and grabbed her sheets, ripping them off of her, allowing her to roll out of them and smack stomach first into the cold stone floor.

"The…fuck…." She mumbled lazily as she struggled to figure out what had happened. She listened for a moment then shot up stating, "SHIT!"

I chuckled slightly and straitened out my ribbons before bolting out the door. I wasn't about to miss inspection, not even for her, this day was one of the biggest we'd ever live to see, for it only occured every eight or so years. I sprinted down the hallway, heading for the barrack main doors, passing a few struggling soldiers on the way. Everyone was in such a hurry they didn't bother to straiten themselves out before they exited their rooms and I had to keep myself from falling over as a girl ran out with her pants thrown over her shoulder, struggling with her shirt buttons.

"Talmay, wait up!" My roommate, Cryla shouted as she busted through a group of new recruits.

I slowed my pace only a little as she approached behind me, then stepped it up again as she reached about a foot behind me. We weaved around the slower soldiers and made good time bursting out through the front doors. Quickly we ran for the P.H. (Physical Hell) field to fall in. I was Regiment 2: Colonel; she was Battalion 3: Lt. Colonel. Those were pretty good ranks for only having a Division, when most of the Barracks held Armies worth of trainees and officers.

We prepared ourselves for a good deal of yelling, the inspection wouldn't start for maybe another ten minutes if we were lucky, which would give us enough time to inspect the troops ourselves, which could end up being a lot worse for a soldier then being inspected by only one or two people, they spent less time observing the uniforms then we did.

I stood before My Regiment of about 1,600 women and cleared my throat. I began to do as the other officers were doing, inspecting the soldiers before me. Quite a few were still prepping themselves and I scowled deeply, saving my voice for a few minutes as the officers fixed thier uniforms as well. I didn't want to make the officers look bad when they weren't prepared either, and yet it boiled my blood.

When everything was about situated, I returned myself to the front of the large group, whatever I shouted out now, the lesser officers would echo to they're troops, and whatever the officers ahead of me ordered, I would be forced to do the same. It was just so the beginners would get the point of how incredibly important this was for our segment of the general's many Armies.

"Fall in you disgraceful sleazes, we aren't in brownie camp anymore, does this look like a fucking tea party to you! Fix your uniforms you filthy dogs, you look like a bunch of deranged cartoons!" I shouted out, then quieted for a minute while some officers were able to echo and add in a bit of their own input on their troop's composure.

"You think you're ready? Hell, you were just scrubbing toilets and scrapping the dung of my shoes the other day! You're a disgrace to this Regiment! You're ranks are about as strait as my gay uncle! NOW FALL IN!" I screamed at them as I noticed a few more step out onto the field late. A soldier was at rest a few meters away and I marched right up into her face and shouted, "Did I TELL you to move soldier?"

"N…No ma'am" She stuttered.

"Then what the hell are you doing? Are you blind? Do you see any other soldiers at rest! Let's get you some energy girl, drop and give me 75 push ups now!" I screamed. The other girls fidgeted slightly, trying to stand up perfectly, making sure they didn't twitch an inch. "There, now that you're one step above a complete disgrace let's do this right!"

I froze, a voice stopped me and startled me, it was the Maj. General giving the command to open ranks to the Brig. Generals, who in turn shouted to me and the other Colonels. "Company open ranks!" I shouted on, standing before the mass of soldiers, waiting patiently. After every Platoon was ready they passed the word back down. I was ready and anticipating the command as it reached me, then I took my position before my ranks and waited for the inspection to begin.

Silence filled the field and I felt proud for my Regiment, for the first time in a long time. I straitened up; awaiting further orders as some of the higher-ranking officers trailed around the ranks, making sure everything was perfect. After a quick overseeing they returned to the front of the Division, meeting the general for the first time. I shuddered slightly as I thought about it, was his aura really as cold as the rumors said? Could he really kill someone with a point of his finger?

I shook it off, now was a very inappropriate time to think of such things. I kept my baring and waited patiently for the Maj. General and him to walk by. Eventually I spotted them in the Regiment before me and nearly toppled over. He was…small, so…WEAK it appeared. Suddenly I felt sick, if this was the actual man I'd been waiting for, for so long to meet…then it was all for nothing. I watched as he spoke to one of the girls and she instantly fell over, motionless on the ground. I knew she was fine, I could still she her chest rising and falling out of the corner of my eye…maybe he only appeared weak. I nearly slapped myself, I shouldn't doubt a man who runs at least 40 armies worth of soldiers, and owns over half the universe. It would be foolish to underestimate that kind of power.

After one last round he made it to the front of my Regiment and stopped just before he reached me. I let out a silent sigh of relief, I had a feeling if I were to actually have to listen to him speak, I might die laughing, and that would be a disaster. I stayed myself and suddenly realized the two of them were chatting amongst eachother, and the man was annoyed. His voice was surprisingly deep and melodic; his skin was a pale white. An onyx horn protruded from either side of his head. A strange body armor suited him, and he wore an odd device over his left eye.

"These troops can't fight, hell they don't even look like they'd be fit to dance. I need a Division for my next mission and father said yours was the best in all the solar systems." He snapped.

The Maj. General sighed deeply and replied, "they know how to fight, it's just with all the recruits we've been trying to teach them the basics and…"

"BASICS!" He spat back at her "These GIRLS couldn't win a pillow fight much less defend themselves, and you call that BASICS?"

"If you would have let us known sooner, we would have had time to…" The Maj. General started.

"You're a Division, MY Division, you've had eight years and you're supposed to prepare for a situation like this!" The man shouted angrily. "You're done! These women are mine to control now, you've had your chance!"

"Please Freeza! Give me another chance!" and those were her last words. He blew a hole right through her head, splattering the troops behind her in a shower of crimson. The ranks had broken…many of the girls cried, feinted, or retched a pool of sick. The now named shadow loomed above us all, a twisted smile crept silently across his face and he let out a vicious laugh. He'd proved himself right, and we all knew it.

I had stood still the entire time, shivering slightly as a droplet of blood rolled down my cheek. He walked past me, his stride short, yet graceful. He stopped for a moment before me, but didn't face me. He closed his eyes and chuckled softly, causing me to shudder unnoticeably once again. This time his voice was cold and menacingly calm as he stated:

"At ease soldier."

I stood still as he walked away, chuckling madly. A drop of sweat mixed with the blood and spilled down past my neck, rolling onto my shirt, and I collapsed. The ground was softer then it should have been as I looked down upon the face of Alixi, our Maj. General. Her mouth was gapped open almost as wide as her eyes, a stream of blood running from all three openings. I stared into her magnificently bright blue eyes, crowned by her soft golden hair and felt a stinging sensation flow down my cheeks. I approached her lifeless and mangled body, ignoring the blood that had begun to accumulate on my hands and knees. I rose my shuddering hand to her eyes and shut them, letting them rest there for a moment before looking away.

I stood suddenly, not really realizing or feeling it. I looked up the hill, dark fury burning in my grey orbs as I stared at the disappearing form of that man…that thing…F-R-E-E-Z-A. I clenched my fists and gritted my teeth, we'd show him how wrong he was…none of us could ever forget what he'd done…ever. Alixi was innocent and young...none of this was her fault.

AN: I think this will be a Comedy/Horror/Romance…kind of freaky, I know, but still…sarcasm and death go well together. Hope you liked it, since none of my other story's appeal to anyone. Jk. R&R if you liked it, hated it, whatever.

P.S. for those of you that don't understand military terms, just pretend you know exactly what it means, believe me, it won't last for too long.

P.S.S. wholy crap I just reread that and realized how all over the place it was. Oh well, i'll do better next time, promise. lol.
