A few days had gone by and I was surprised by Raditz behavior, he would sleep most of the day while I was training and working on the ship and he would train and work at night while everyone, including me was asleep. I wasn't sure if he was doing this to avoid sleeping in the same bed together but I did appreciate the space he was giving me. I never shared a room with a man and certainly not the same bed and I must admit I was nervous at first but Raditz had been a gentleman these passed days. Pan on the other hand was to my surprise, getting along with Nappa. That big arrogant oaf had somehow found a way to warm up to Pan out of all people. They spent a lot of time training, eating and talking, I even seen her laugh with Nappa...He never made me laugh...he was serious most of the time but around Pan his rough personality would change.

During this time, we had learned that we were 41 years in the past. To be more precise we were in the year 757...and nothing made sense; the events of this time line were different from our parents past. First off, Vegeta had told me that they were travelling and recruiting all remaining living saiyins to prepare and defeat their great enemy Frieza, the man that destroyed planet Vegeta. But in our time, my father had still been under Frieza's command at this age, so something happened in this time line before our arrival here that changed the main course of events. Somehow, this younger version of my father had escaped Frieza earlier and was hiding and training until he was strong enough to defeat him. They had sent a signal to all saiyin pods that were sent as babies to purge planets and see if there were any remaining saiyin survivors out there. I had come to the conclusion that Vegeta did not fully trust us yet. He would observe us while we trained probably to learn more about our weakness and fighting skills in case he would have to use it against us some day, he might be different but he was still a lot like the father I once knew. He was just younger, he had not felt love or compassion yet, he had only felt pain and suffering. He had been patient with us till now not asking too many questions about our home. Vegeta had even asked me to train with him; he said I was a better opponent than Turles and Raditz.

-''You have to focus you're too distracted. In a real battle your enemies will not have mercy and being distracted will get you killed'' Vegeta pointed out while we were catching our breath from another one of our spar sessions.

-''I know...I just have so much to do before we land on the next planet. I have to go check the ventilation of the ship it's been having some issues today...'' I replied back but Vegeta quickly interrupted me. ''Listen girl I don't care what you have to do, when you fight your focus should be on your opponent not your problems! When we train you have to act as if you are in a real battle. Understood?'' Even in his young age, my father was still a huge pain in the ass when it came to training. ''Fine...I will be more focus next time'' I said before grabbing my towel to wipe the sweat from my forehead.

-''Girl...You also have to fix the panels of one of the medical tanks'' He quickly added.

-''What happened to it? I fixed one of them yesterday! I swear Vegeta if you hadn't found us I really wonder how this ship would have made it if you keep breaking everything!'' I replied annoyed.

-''The only reason why you and your little friend are still alive is thanks to me... the least you can do is make yourself useful around here.'' He said with a smirk that only made me even more aggravated.

-''Listen I'm not your slave! We came with you by choice...and if you ask me, you are lucky to have found someone that knows so much about fixing things around here...so instead of being an arrogant ass all the time you can say thank you for doing such a good job Bra!'' I snapped at him but he simply grunted in response as he left the training rooms. ''Jerk...How my mother even got to know him is beyond my understanding...he's so selfish and closed up...'' I thought to myself before making my way to the kitchen. As I got there, I saw Turles and Raditz at the table eating as their eyes went wide open when they saw me in my training clothes.

-''That's how your train girl...I'm surprised Vegeta hasn't tried anything on you yet dressed like that...your only asking for a good fuck session'' Trules chuckled while looking at me from head to toe while Raditz stayed quiet at his brothers remark. What a pervert! Does he always have to be so crude...? I didn't see the problem with my training clothes as I was looking down at them. I was wearing my black sport bra and shorts; there was nothing unusual with this outfit.

-''This is how I trained back home...'' I simply answered. ''Aren't you supposed to be sleeping at this time?'' I asked turning my head to Raditz. He quickly stopped staring at me while he snapped out of his thoughts ''I'm not tired...'' He replied before taking a bite of his food.

-''Hey Bra I see you are done with training! How did it go? Did Vegeta go easy on you?'' I jumped at Pan's voice as she entered the kitchen with Nappa on her side.

-''Since when does Vegeta go easy on anyone...? It was hell like always...'' I replied back as she giggled at my declaration. I noticed she was a lot happier these days and I wondered if it had anything to do with Nappa. I was looking at them while I took a sip of my drink and I could clearly see some type of connection building between the two just by the way Nappa looked at Pan...

-''Girl...Have you fixed the tank yet?'' I was startled by Vegeta's question as he made his way to the kitchen table.

-''I just got here from our training session...I can't just snap my fingers and repair something in 5 seconds...I will go work on it when I'm done with my food.'' I snapped at him as I took another sip on my drink.

-''Humph...you better get to it soon...'' Vegeta added before sitting down between Turles and Raditz.

-''You know saying the word please once in a while won't kill you Veggie...'' I said with a smirk emphasising on the last word clearly aware that he hated this particular nickname.

-''I'm your Prince and I don't have to say please...you are required to do as I ask. And don't ever call me THAT again girl I warned you about this already!'' Vegeta barked at me. ''But while we are all here...I think it's finally time we get some answers from both of you.'' Vegeta continued looking at me and Pan with a more serious look on his face. I have to admit that I was expecting this conversation to come up sooner or later...

-''What answers do you want exactly...'' Pan asked him quickly.

-''Well for instance where you came from...how you ended up on that trade planet we found you...The name of your home planet...'' Vegeta questioned. Before I could answer Pan was quick enough to jump in and tell them about our story...

-''We come from a planet called earth... We were attacked by a very powerful alien, and our family and friends were killed fighting him...Bra and I tried to fight but he was too strong'' Pan paused and took a deep breath as the painful memories of that day started to resurface '' Bra's mother was a scientist and part of her job was to build spaceships that's where Bra gets her talent for fixing things around here...her mother was a genius and she had planned everything so Bra and I would escape...We wanted to fight, we wanted to avenge our family and stay but it was too late...they put us inside the ship and sent us away before we could even argue we were gone...Our family gave their lives protecting us...so we could get away. Last thing we remember was waking up on the planet we met...''

They all absorbed Pan's story in stunned silence. After a moment of awkward silence Vegeta asked ''and how did saiyins end up on your planet...we have never come across another race that could procreate with saiyins, you are the first half breeds we ever met...If planet Vegeta was still around your fathers would be traitors and the punishment for mating outside our race was death...''

''I'm a ΒΌ saiyin from my father's side...My grand-father came to earth as a baby sent in a pod to purge the planet...but he hit his head and it made him forget about his mission. He met my grand-mother and they finally had two sons together and my father was his oldest son. As for Bra...her story is much different...'' Pan was cut off as I decided to continue myself.

''My father came to earth years after Pan's grand-father had already settled in on the planet. When my father realized that her grand-father had not completed the mission as ordered he had come to destroy earth himself and kill everyone including her grand-father...but long story short they had to fight together to destroy a mutual enemy ...he finally met my mother in the process, fell in love and after some years of bickering, my brother came along and I soon followed years later.'' I paused for a few seconds as I looked at Vegeta eyes before proceeding. ''And for your information my father was a prideful and strong saiyin, he valued the traditions of his home planet ... he was far from a traitor! He was a warrior and hero to our people and he died fighting for his family till the end!'' I finally said offended by Vegeta earlier statement about the punishment of procreating outside the race. I couldn't believe that's how he was before meeting my mother. And after a moment of quiet I quickly added. ''Now that you have your answers...I'm going to fix the medical tanks.'' But as I was getting up from my chair the entire ship started shaking. I was taking by surprise and I almost bashed my head on the table as I lost balance but was caught last minute by Raditz. The moment lasted two seconds but the way he looked at me as he took a hold of my arms so I wouldn't fall again, I saw concern...

-''WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?'' Turles yelled as he was also trying to hold on to the table. The ship kept on shaking as the lights were flickering none stop. Something was wrong...I quickly let go of Raditz and started running towards the front ship.

-''BRA'' Pan shouted as she followed me without hesitation.

Everything was flying around and we had to be careful not to get hit by something. As we quickly reached the front of the ship, we noticed that we were caught in a comet dust tail! The small meteors were damaging the ship and if we didn't act fast we wouldn't make it alive.

-''I'm going to take control of the ship and fly us out of here...'' I explained to Pan as she nodded in response. I sat on the pilot's seat and pushed the speed fuel switch as I took the handle and wheel and grabbed on to them, as I flew the ship out of the dust tail as fast as I could. We were finally out of danger but the ship had been damaged and we had to stop somewhere fast so I could do a maintenance checkup.

-''What the hell happened here girl? And who gave you the right to fly this ship?'' I suddenly heard Vegeta as he made his way to the main controls.

-''If it wasn't for Bra we would be all dead! You should thank her! We were caught in a dust tail and the ship is damaged!'' Pan came to my defence as she looked at Vegeta with anger in her eyes, but he simply ignored her.

-''Humph...well now what?'' Vegeta snorted as he looked at me.

-''Now we have to make an emergency stop somewhere so I can take a look...or we can continue and see how lucky we are before the ship blows up.'' I answered as he was clearly annoyed by the sarcasm in my voice.

-''Fine. There's a trade planet not far from here we should make it there in 1 hour. Get out of my seat so I can enter the coordinates.'' He replied promptly.

-''While you do that I'm going to take a shower. Let me know once we start landing.'' I said as I made my way to my room...well Raditz room.
