Last Chapter:
He felt the ki's of the two dark figures skyrocket when his name was mentioned. 'It couldn't be...could it?' Just then the two figures rushed forward and knelt in front of Vegeta...with their tails waving in the air in excitement at seeing their prince alive and well. Vegeta knelt there shocked to see two of his planet's first class elites still alive and unharmed. He was sure that Lord Freiza would kill off the strong people of his race. 'What was the bastard up to?' But nevertheless, he was thrilled to see the other two saiyi-jins. Of course he hid this very well and only nodded at their respect of him. 'I feel more alone now then before...what the hell am I suppose to do now father? Please tell me.'
****************************
Chapter Two:
He felt like he was drowning in his own bile of rage. It was always there, beneath the surface, threatening to explode and consume him, causing him to do something rash. His hands were shaking as he gazed out the glass window at the dark surface of space. The stars were streaks as they passed swiftly by. He sighed as he tried to think of what options were opened to him. He grunted in disgust when he knew the answer to his problem. 'Who am I kidding? I have no choice but to…continue with this charade *sigh* I will be strong, I will pull through this and I will triumphed.' He allowed a small but rare smile to grace his handsome face.
The doors to the room opened and closed as quietly as it opened. He did not have to turn to know who the two intruders were. "What is it Nappa?" The older Saiyi-jin cleared his throat before speaking, "My prince, all the preparations are done for the purge, we are only waiting for you Vegeta." He nodded his head and waved his hand as a sign of dismissal. As Nappa turned around to leave the other Saiyi-jin hesitated which Vegeta took notice off. "Is there something else Radditz?" The longhaired Saiyi-jin stood his ground and cleared his throat before he began, "Prince, that slave of Frieza has been ins-"
"Radditz enough! I'm sorry about that Vegeta, it has nothing to do with you." Before Vegeta could react to the two Saiyi-jins bowed to him and retreated from the room. He knew what Radditz was about to say, 'That idiot should have know better than to believe that rumor.' He moved away from the window and started the process of putting on his body suit and armor, when he caught his reflection in the glass mirror hanging from across the room.
He saw a man…well; two microns of hell can make any boy a man. (NOTE: Using a micron in terms of five Earth years.) He smirked at his own joke. But the humor slowly faded away when he saw the scars that covered his body. He turned away from the mirror and hurriedly pulled on his suit and armor. 'How many years has it been…how many years has Freiza tortured me? Ten years? *Sighed* If he thinks that he's broken me, just wait until I surprise him. I have come a long way from that five-year-old boy. I have patience when need be…I have waited this long, buying my time…getting stronger…I can wait a little longer.'
********* *******
Frieza gazed down at the five year old prince, "Since you are in my services now Vegeta, I do not have to threaten you with that little promise about your father, am I right?" Vegeta looked up at the alien with pure hatred, 'You promised not to hurt my father if I do everything you ask, and I did all you asked of me, but you killed him anyway.' He kept repeating that in his mind as he stared Frieza. His voice was amazingly clear as he spoke to the throne alien. "May my two comrades leave the room so I can speak to you privately?" Frieza raised an eyebrow in amusement; he motioned for the Dodoria to remove the two Saiyi-jins from the room. Vegeta nodded his head at the two Saiyi-jins at his feet to rise and since he was but a boy he was staring eye level at the two kneeling men. They hesitated for a minute before they caught the dangerous look in the prince's eyes. They bowed before following the pink alien from the room.
Vegeta waited for the door to slide close behind them before focusing his full attention on Frieza. The alien was simply smiling in amusement at him. "So what is on your mind boy?" Vegeta was relieved that his voice was calm and toneless. "I have agreed to serving you Lord Frieza, you did not have to bring my father into this. You doubt my loyalty in front of my men was uncalled for. I honor all my agreement, don't you Frieza?" Vegeta knew that he went too far but he just wanted to spit in that disgusting slug's face. He saw a flicker of anger move across the alien's face before he burst into a hideous cackle. "You are brave oh Prince of Saiyi-jins but you do not know what real loyalty is yet. You are but a boy…but do not worry, you will learn your place." Vegeta clenched his fists at his sides, concentrating very hard to keep his temper in check that he did not see it coming.
Zarbon's fist came into contact with his face in that few seconds of his rage. He flew backward hitting the far wall with great force. He had no time to recover from the blow when Zarbon kicked him in his side, he heard more then felt his ribs snap like twigs as he tried not to scream out. He saw the next attack coming but was to slow to move away when the foot made contact with the side of his face. He slid across the floor until he came to a complete stop by Frieza's feet. He could feel the blood filling up in his mouth as he slowly got to his feet. He held back the moans of pain that were threatening to burst from his throat while he tried to focus on the words that were now coming from the alien's mouth on the throne. It was so distant compared to the ringing in his ears.
"I hope that you have learned something from this lesson Vegeta. If you get out of line again, I will be forced to treat you like a child…which I know you are not…am I right Prince Vegeta?" Vegeta straightened and not to give Frieza and Zarbon the satisfaction he bowed to Frieza at the waist…ignoring the pain…trying desperately not to pass out. When he straightened again he felt his broken ribs grinding against each other. He opened his mouth and the blood spilled forth and down the side of his mouth and throat onto his clothes, painstakingly he said in his toneless voice, "May I be relieved, so I can take care of my men Lord Frieza?"
Frieza raised an eyebrow at him before waving him away like an annoying pest. "Go young Prince and 'attend' your men." Vegeta turned around and moved toward the sliding doors, passing Zarbon he gave the green alien a mere glare before moving through the now open doors.
******* *******
Vegeta glanced one more time into the mirror to see if had put everything on before moving for the door. When he was outside his door he turned down the left corridor and made his to the hangar where he knew Nappa and Radditz would be waiting for him. He sneered in disgust as he passed by the bridge where every alien you can find in this galaxy or maybe the universe was trying to run the ship. 'Thank whatever gods are out there that I will be going on this purging mission instead of going onto Frieza's planet. The most disgusting place you can ever find…that's where Frieza is conveniently holding the center of his empire.
He continued down the corridors until he came to the hangar bay that he wanted. He moved through the sliding door and immediately saw his two Saiyi- jin companions going over the final check points of their space pods. He grunted when he saw one of Frieza technicians, a female Tokchan trying to talk to the two Saiyi-jins with no success. He moved towards silently, curious to what the imbecile female was babbling about. "Nappa, you can't adjust the headings like that, you will surely blow up when you leave space dock. It can't withstand that much capacity!"
The bald saiyi-jin turned on the female and stabbed a finger painfully on her forehead. "Listen female, I know what I'm doing to my own pod, alright? So back off before I rip your head off!" The female stood her ground and glared at the tall man in front of her. "You would not dare unless you want to tell Lord Frieza what happened to one of his techs. I don't think-" She did not get to finish when someone spoke behind, cutting her off. "Nappa, is everything ready? My patience is wearing thin." The tech watched the man in front of her move away from her and spoke to the person behind her. "I apologize Vegeta, Radditz and I are ready."
The tech moved away as she turned and faced the Prince. This is the first time she has every seen the Saiyi-jin Prince up close. He did not even glance her way as he brushed past her and Nappa and made his way to Radditz who was making some adjustments on his scouter. Vegeta noticed then that he forgot his scouter in his room. "Radditz, where are the extra scouters?" Radditz gave him one from the techs working quarters. Vegeta placed it on his head and adjusted the readings when he felt someone watching him. He turned to see the tech that Nappa was arguing with just staring at him like he was a monster and he probably was to her. She met his eyes and literally jumped before turning red and tried to seem interested in something else. Vegeta scowled at her but addressed the saiyi-jin at his side. "Radditz, remember to be quick this time when we go down planet side. But before we move towards the purging planet, we're making a stop at Roshnar, I have someone I have to meet, inform Nappa discreetly about our first destination."
Radditz nodded and turned to leave when he hesitated. "Vegeta about the slave- I – I was wondering if it has reached your ear." Vegeta tried not to pound the other Saiyi-jin into the ground when the other Saiyi-jin stopped what he was saying just stared at him hoping for an answer. Vegeta tried to hide a smirk but failed miserably. "Radditz, I have heard of this and you are loyal to bring this up to me but…it was just rumors. You should have listened to Nappa about not bringing this up, I have no patience for lies and you all gossip around here like a bunch of old women! See to it that the source of the rumors suffers for his insolence." Vegeta turned away and moved toward his own pod. When he was inside he leaned back against the seat and sighed loudly, 'Another purge, another planet, another helpless pathetic race being destroyed in less than two days. At least I will get to stretch some muscles.'
*********** **************
Four days later
He got off the pod tired and cranky, he straightened when he saw the tech team move forward to repair the slight damages they got on their pods. Vegeta spared a glance at his two Saiyi-jin companions before he moved towards the hangar exit. He received a message two days ago that Frieza was on the ship and waiting for a report on his progress. He grinded his teeth as he walked stiffly towards the doors, he was so engrossed in his thoughts of his coming encounter with Frieza he did not see the woman appear in front of his path. He walked right into her and watched with irritation as she fell like a piece of fragile glass. He stared down at her, as she finally comprehended what happened and cursed in her language. "Who the hell do you think you are, are you blind or something?"
She turned around to face her assailant to come face to face with Prince Vegeta. She lost her voice as she stared at him with her mouth hanging open. She watched as he started to speak, "You were saying tech? Did you address me just now? (silence) What's your name tech? Are you deaf?" Jadia could not speak out and with lightning speed Nappa was grabbing onto her hair and jerking her backwards. "Answer the Prince you wench!" Vegeta rolled his eyes at the scene and scowled, "Nappa, help this tech remember her name, I have better things to do." Vegeta moved past the two people and was off to make his appearance before Frieza.
Vegeta stared at the floor as he listened to Frieza voice giving him instructions, "As you know Vegeta, the Picars are very docile people, they are asking to be allowed an audience with a member of my council. Remember when I told you your skills in many language communications would come in handy? Well that time is now; you are to go to Picarnos and find out what they want. Do not disappoint me Vegeta, these low beings may be weak, but they are a very important part of my empire, technology is everything. Do we understand each other?"
Vegeta kept his head bowed as he replied, "Yes Lord Frieza, I will do the task." Frieza smiled menacingly, "Then you may go, little prince." Vegeta grinded his teeth as stood from his kneeling position and turned to leave. "Oh Vegeta, I almost forgot, I have a present waiting for you at your quarters. I hope it is to your liking, after all you are a young man now, you must be interested in such things." Vegeta nodded before he left. When he was outside he allowed the anger to finally show on his face. 'I'll show you what I think of you and your present. I throw it out the disposal unit.'
Vegeta stomped into his room and immediately looked about the darkened room for the 'present' that disgusting creature was insulting him with. He heard a noise to his left and he smirked as he swiftly rammed into the intruder pushing him into the wall. A sharp gasp escaped from the intruder making Vegeta hesitate from ramming his fist into the person face. He was about to interrogate the idiot when he noticed that his right hand was resting on the person's chest, right on the person's breast. Breast?! He moved his hand away and growled, "Lights!" The lights came on around the room and he took a better look at the intruder. A girl!
Vegeta watched her breathing deeply as she tried not to collapse onto the tile floor. He narrowed his eyes, 'She looks familiar somehow.' Her raven hair was piled on top of her head, her powder white skin and dark brown eyes were luminous as she stared at him. Her black dress was wrinkled and very transparent. But Vegeta would not have even noticed if she were naked, what he found interesting was the pointed ears that poked out off her hair at the sides of her head. 'That's it! She's that girl that Frieza keeps around, the very one that the rumors are about. Wait a minute! Rumors!' Vegeta growled out loud as he fired a key blast at the girl's head. She clamped her mouth shut and closed her eyes, waiting for the blast to end her life, but it never came. She opened her eyes slowly to see a hole smoking right next to the left side of her head.
Vegeta remembered what Frieza said about the gift, 'Trying to humiliate me, two can play at this game.' He pressed into her soft body and ignored her gasp as he spoke in her native tongue, "Cashnar beh tanu oraska nanmar?" The girl straightened against him, trying not to tremble as she felt her body react to his nearness. "Prince Vegeta, you can speak basic, I fully understand it." Vegeta watched with not the least bit interest as she started to flush under his gaze, he could feel her body heat rising and her eyes darting across his face.
Vegeta grunted in disgust, "What are you doing in my quarters girl?" The girl blinked before replying, "Frieza has told me that you will be my new master. I'm Rida, the noble daughter of Packtar." Vegeta moved away from her and started to take off his armor, not sparing her a glance he said, "If you're a noble what are you doing here as Frieza's slave?" Vegeta did not get an answer, so turned back to see the girl fidgeting, he smirked, "You're planet was destroyed…than you must have had no importance if Frieza ordered your planet destroyed." The girl bristled and huffed, "Look my history is none of your business, I'm here to be your servant, so like it or not I'm staying here, Frieza's orders."
Vegeta glared at her, he was about to say a smart remark when he spared a glance at the time on the wall. Damn, he was going to be late if he stood here arguing with a slip of a girl. He undress right there in front of her, earning a gasp from Rida before she turned away. "What's the matter? Haven't seen a naked man before? Are you suppose to be experience in this field of pleasing?" He heard her scream but with a wave of his had he dismissed her and entered the shower to cool of before he had to leave again. Modesty was virtues that Saiyi-jin do not share.
*********************
Vegeta opened his eyes to see the sun rising, he blinked as he looked around for a second wondering where he was. A slight moment to his right made him shift his attention to see his wife in deep slumber. Vegeta's eyes softened just a fraction, realizing that he was only dreaming…well not really…more like a flashback sort of thing. He peered at her wondering why she was frowning in her sleep…she always had a silly smile on her face in the morning…she only had a frown on when she was upset about something the night before. Vegeta rolled his eyes when he finally realized what it was…. his past. Why does his past always manage to ruin his life?
He slowly moved away, trying to sit up when speed like a demon, a small pale arms shot out and grabbed him around the waist. He nearly jumped, nearly, but not quite. He turned to stare at two piercing blue eyes. He tried not to sound fazed, "Go back to sleep, it's still early." Even as he said it he knew that his stubborn wife wasn't listening to him. "I'm not sleepy anymore." Vegeta signed softly, 'This is going to be harder than I thought.'
To be continued
Note: I'm not going into detail about Vegeta's past, just wanted to show you the people that influenced him over the years he was under Frieza.
He felt the ki's of the two dark figures skyrocket when his name was mentioned. 'It couldn't be...could it?' Just then the two figures rushed forward and knelt in front of Vegeta...with their tails waving in the air in excitement at seeing their prince alive and well.

A slight moment to his right made him shift his attention to see his wife in deep slumber. Vegeta's eyes softened just a fraction, realizing that he was only dreaming…well not really…more like a flashback sort of thing. He peered at her wondering why she was frowning in her sleep…she always had a silly smile on her face in the morning…she only had a frown on when she was upset about something the night before. Vegeta rolled his eyes when he finally realized what it was…. his past. Why does his past always manage to ruin his life?
He slowly moved away, trying to sit up when speed like a demon, a small pale arms shot out and grabbed him around the waist. He nearly jumped, nearly, but not quite. He turned to stare at two piercing blue eyes. He tried not to sound fazed, "Go back to sleep, it's still early." Even as he said it he knew that his stubborn wife wasn't listening to him. "I'm not sleepy anymore." Vegeta signed softly, 'This is going to be harder than I thought.'

Note: I'm not going into detail about Vegeta's past, just wanted to show you the people that influenced him over the years he was under Frieza.
