Clash of Destinies

Fate's Destiny

The King was striding thorugh the corridors, stalking to the med lab where his son was being held. The infant that was floating in the green waters of the regen tank stared up at the king. The twin ebony fires were slightly muted through the tilted glass but still demanded the attention of all in the room. King Vegeta gasped in shock as his son's ki began to rise dramatically. The sharp sound of cracking filled the air as the metal and glass machine bent, stretched, and finally shattered.

"You," he snapped at the doctor who had witnessed the event, "What is his power level? No infant has ever destroyed a regen tank. Especially not a child that young."

"T-t-the ch-child's power l-l-level i-is over 7000 and it's s-still rising, my Lord," the reptilian alien stuttered.

The child crawled over to the King and pulled on his cloak. His father picked him up by the tail warranting a loud scream from the Prince. After his tail was released, he turned around in his father's arms and created a ki blast to destroy the cowering alien. King Vegeta smiled at the boy, knowing that his ruthlessness would make him a strong warrior.

On a different part of the planet, Bardock's mate was dying from the pain of child birth. She had used her energy on the first child, but for the birthing of the second child, the painkillers had worn off, and she didn't have the ki to push. The infant was coming, but it was killing her. Bardock was trying to give her enough energy to survive, but she was in too much pain to take the much-needed energy.

"Ai shiteru, Kidra," he said as the baby fell to the floor and as Kidra's life force faded away.

The screaming infant on the floor brought Bardock back to the present. He picked it up and examined it to make sure the child would be a healthy boy. His other infant son slept nearby and his older son, Radditz was watching from the doorway, waiting for permission to see his mother. The infant's tail was between it's legs hiding the sex of the child from him. Moving the tail aside, he dropped the child in shock. Radditz flew over and caught his sibling.

"Why did you drop 'im, father?" the boy asked carefully.

"You should have let the brat fall, it's a girl," Bardock snapped. "Your mother just died giving birth to that. Do you realize that when the King finds out I let my mate die for a female heir, not only will she die, but so will I and the rest of this family. I know a scientist who can change the brat enough to fit in with a race of weaklings. There's a planet nearby called Chikyuu that has inhabitants that look like us, only without the tails. They are incredibly weak and stupid, I will take her there on my next mission."

"What about the other one, Papa?" Radditz asked quietly.

"What about it? He will be sent on his first mission in four months," Bardock snapped as he carried the screaming bundle to the lab.

He marched into the lab and dropped the child on a table. The scientist walked over and examined the infant.

"This is the child? I would consider keeping it. She has an extremely high power level," the scientist asked as she did a few tests.

"How high was it? The other brat only read at 1. 1! This brat couldn't possibly be stronger," Bardock began pacing in frustration.

"I have never seen a case like this," Karal started, "This is the first case I have ever heard of where identical twins were born as one boy and one girl. It's almost as if there was too much power for the boy to handle so he split into a male and female form. His power will surface eventually, but hers will have to be supressed. If she is to taken to Chikyuu, we will have to remove her tail and supress all Saiyan traits. Come back tomorrow and we will have her ready for the journey."

"Fine, but how high is the brat's power level?" Bardock snapped.

"It's over 10,000," she said.

"Then do whatever possible to supress it," he scowled. "I don't want to hear that the planet has been blown up by a toddler."

He turned and stalked out of the lab. A few minutes later, he was standing over his dead mate hearing his new son cry softly nearby. Turning from the body on the birthing table, he picked up his son and carried him home.

****************

Four months later…

Bardock stood back as the space pod carrying his youngest son blasted away from the planet. He had pulled some strings to make sure that Kakkarotto would be sent to the same planet as his sister. The boy would conquer the planet and find the girl. He could bring his sister home and the familly would be reunited. It wouldn't be long before everything Bardock had been planning to come crashing down.

I don't own DBZ, all the characters (except Seri) belong to Akira Toriama. Seri is my character, but you can use her as long as you ask me first. Reviews would be nice but don't flame me please.
