Hey! So... yeah... Long time without being here. But I have an explanation!
Well, first I was busy with the university and the works I had to do and lots of other things. Then there was an incident. A very BIG incident and I was hospitalzed and was in coma for some time and yeah... Not good. But I'm back (I think)
Warning: There might be some mistakes since my native language is not English. I'm Portuguese. Also, I tried my best to improve my language and all and I'm sorry if there are some things that passed and that are still wrog. Gomenasai!
But well, enough of talking! Let's start!
The Light in my Life- Chapter 3
Slowly I started to wake up. My head throbbed and I couldn't feel my body. I could sense him in the room and he wasn't too far away. It seemed that he was on his bed or something. I can't really tell, my senses were not working because of the headache. I didn't dare to move or open my eyes, I only left myself be, hoping that he wouldn't notice that I was awake. Suddenly I heard footsteps in direction of where I was. I tried to relax and breathed slowly, trying desperately to look like I was sleeping. He leaned in my direction and I started to panic internally, hopefully he isn't like me and he doesn't have very sensitive senses. I felt his weight on the bed. Wait! Bed? I'm in a bed? My bed? I can't think about anything… Am I really in a bed? It feels soft and warm…
He left something near my face and backed away. I heard his footsteps again, but this time they were getting away from me. I heard the door open and close and then I couldn't hear anything but the servants talking to him, and then silence took over my surroundings. I opened my eyes and saw a paper laid gently in the pillow. I lifted my body with one arm and took hold of the paper. The first thing that I could see was his beautiful handwriting, his letter making gentle curves, up and down and curled at the end of the word, a handwriting worth of royalty. Then I concentrated in reading what he wrote.
«I'll be out for the rest of the day, during that time you are on your own and you can explore your surroundings. It has a bunch of secret passages that only some people know about but since you are my servant and since you will sleep in the same bedroom as I, you must know them. On the right of your bed you can find a rift in the wall. Put there your finger and the ground will open in front of your eyes. After that you have some stairs and they get to a labyrinth of corridors, whenever the castle is attacked you must hide yourself there. When you wake up you must dress something. I left some clothes at the feet of your bed.
Then, use the rest of the day to take care of the bedroom. Also clean the mess in the bathroom, when I come back I want it clean and I want to find everything on its place.
I don't want excuses, you already know what happens if you don't do as I say. Anyway, Enjoy, do your work and you might have a recompense»
I nodded to myself and tried to sit up discovering that it was impossible. I tried once again and a ray of pain climbed all the length of my spine. I squirmed in pain and grabbed the top of the bed trying to push my weight up. I finally managed to sit down on the bed. My tail was hurting and I grabbed it, caressing the fur slowly, trying to ease the pain. I turned my body, sitting in the edge of the bed. I swing my legs slowly and the pain didn't come back, I smiled weakly and sighed. My feet touched the ground and found a fluffy carpet under them. I moved them around purring with the sensation of the soft carpet under my feet. Then I started to get up. I tried to get some support in the wall and lifted my body. As soon as I was straight, my legs began to tremble and then shaking violently, tears came to my eyes and I fell on my knees.
I couldn't get up with the pain that was hitting me constantly. I rubbed my eyes with the back of my hand and then grabbed the fur of the carpet. I crawled to the feet of the bed and found a hill of clothes in the ground. He sure left a lot of clothes for me. I crawled to them and stayed on my knees in front of them. I raised some of them in front of my face and ended up choosing a pale blue baggy shirt and some kind of withe jeans and a pair of boots. I sat on the ground and put the shirt on, then I dressed some boxers he left and then managed to put the jeans on, even thought it was difficult. Then I put on the boots and tried once again to get up. I grabbed the feet of the bed and lifted my body, then I grabbed the bed sheets and tried to gain some balance on my legs. When I finally manage to stay still, I straightened my backs and slowly started to walk to the bathroom.
It was a mess, everything was out of its place and the shower was the worst part… It was obvious… the memories of what happened came to my mind and tears came to my eyes… NO! I will not cry… I can't… I need to be strong! *My brothers! They care… they were the ones that always stayed by my side… Make them proud!* I lifted my head and looked at myself in the mirror with determination.
-I can do it… - I whispered to myself and smiled. Then I started to clean the bathroom, slowly and carefully to not do anything wrong. I tried to forget about the pain I felt and I could make it go away for some time, when it was too much I would get on my knees and started to clean the ground and the things I could reach. Then…the shower. I cleaned it and put everything on its place. When I was done I went to the bedroom and sat on the right edge of the bed.
I looked to the wall and, like he said, there was a little rift. Carefully I put one finger on it, the ground trembled and then there was a hole on it. I looked inside of it and there were some rock stairs. I got up and took a better look at them. I leaned to the front and put my hands on my waist to ease the pain that was still there. Suddenly I felt hands on my backs and then the ground came closer and closer as I fell in the hole and hit the stairs with my body. I fell on my hands and knees and looked up. I could see light in top of me and then… he was there smiling.
- Enjoy your stay… Kakarott – and then the hole in the "roof" closed. My eyes widen when I understood what happened… he… he closed me here… Am I going to die here? Will he leave me here forever?
I could barely see anything in this place. I moved my arms and touched a wall. I sat down and leaned against it… I didn't dare to move… What if this is a trap? A place were servants are murdered or attacked by something or someone? I put my knees near my chest and hold them there with my arms, then I laid my head there and felt tears come to my eyes… What's going to happen? Why me…?
~Vegeta's POV~
I walked carefully to my room and opened the door. I saw him on his feet looking to one of the secret passages, the one I told him about in the note I left. I walked to him and when I was near enough I pushed him. I saw as his body fell and he hit the floor as I grinned. This pleases me so much… I closed the passage after saying «Enjoy your stay… Kakarott».
I was tired and smelly from training so I went to the bathroom. I opened the door and saw that everything was on its place. *At least he knows his place and works properly, maybe… just maybe I will reward him for the good job… Maybe…*
I stripped off my clothes and took a fast shower and then dressed a new armor and spandex. The tiredness took over me and I fell on the bed and relaxed. Sometimes relax feels so good… It makes me…
Soon I fell asleep and I was only able to wake up when I heard someone knock at the door. I got up and walked to it. I opened the door to let whoever was at the other side get in. My eyes got wide when I saw who was at the other side. Nappa!? What was he doing here?
- May I come in, sir?
- Huh? Yes, of course.
He got in and sat in a chair and I sat in front of him in the sofa.
- Sir, you must dress up with the best thing you have and come with me right now. It's urgent!
- Okayyyy… While I dress up explain me everything.
- Of course sir.
I got up and walked to the cabinet and choose my best armor.
- Lord Freeza is coming in some minutes here and we must worry. We don't know what he wants but he said he wanted to see Prince Vegeta.
- I see, well, give e just one minute. – I saw him nod and leave the bedroom for me to be able to dress up in privacy. I got dressed really quickly and then went to his side on the other side of the door. While walking in the corridors I saw that it was already night. Wow, I really overslept. Nhe, not a problem at all… We walked more and more and we finally arrived the throne room. I sat on a smaller throne, on my father's right and my younger brother sat down at his left side.
Now I notice, he is different… well I haven' got any contact with Tarble for some time now. He sure is a bit taller but he is obviously shorter than me, he is even shorter than Kakarott, hmpft, pathetic… Suddenly a thought came to my mind and my eyes went from half closed to completely wide and in shock.
FUCK!
I forgot about Kakarott, he is still closed in the fucking secret passage and I bet he didn't move a feet from where he fell. At least I know he isn't somewhere in the castle that might be dangerous for him… WAIT! Why am I worried if he is safe or not? He is just another trash… A very sexy trash to say the truth. FUCK! NO! DON'T THINK ABOUT THAT, HE IS NOT SEXY, HE'S WORTHLESS, HE MEANS NOTHING AND HE IS JUST ANOTHER SERVANT!
I woke up from my thoughts when the door cracked open and Freeza came inside and walked to the center of the room. My father stood up and bowed to him, as well as me and my brother.
I hate this fucking lizard so much. Ever since I first saw him… But, what does he wants so urgently that made him come to us? He sure hates Saiyans to death, but why coming in such a time. Suddenly he spoke and the room went silent.
~Later~
FINALLY THE FUCKING CONVENTION IT'S OVER! I couldn't hear one more word from that monster. I was done with him.
With heavy steps I went to my bedroom. I got inside and went directly to the secret passage's opening button and opened it. I looked inside and saw him sited and leaned against a wall. I walked to him and knelt down beside him. I studied his face and confirmed my suspicion that he was asleep. Hmpf, he doesn't even know the real life here in the castle…
I grabbed one of his ankles and dragged him. As soon as I pulled his leg, his eyes opened to show panic and fear. I grinned and kept dragging him behind me. I got upstairs and threw him in direction of my bed. He landed with a loud "thump" and stared at me with wide eyes.
- Prepare my bed while I take a quick shower! And don't even think about running away or cry, you know what will happen if you do it. - He nodded quickly and got to his feet. I turned away and went to the bathroom. I got inside the shower and I let the cold water run down my body. It was so relaxing… Suddenly a thought came to my mid…
Kakarott… I don't know how my father got him, but until now, he has been the only servant I could stand and that I didn't kill… He was the only one that followed all my instructions, even thought he was weak… maybe... maybe I really should recompense him… With what? I know! Food… He didn't eat anything since he came to the castle this morning… counting that a day here has 53 hours* he managed to keep his energy the whole time… anyways, he needs to eat!
I got off the shower and noticed that I didn't take any changes with me. Ugh… why me? I stepped in direction of the door and opened it. I looked inside the room and he was sitting in his bed looking at his hands. I coughed trying to get his attention. As soon as he heard the noise I've done he looked at me with a confused look in his face.
- Get me some clothes. I forgot to take them with me. Fast! – He nodded and got up. He went to the dresser and got an armor and a spandex suit and then gave them to me. I got inside the bathroom and dressed myself. Then, I stepped out of the bathroom and he looked at me. I walked towards him and I saw as his facial expression went from calm to panic.
- Are you hungry? – I surely shocked him but he nodded. – Follow me… - I turned around and stepped out of the bedroom. I walked through the corridors of the palace. He was hesitant. He barely talks, well, he might be intimidated by me and afraid to say something wrong… What a waste, I didn't want a quiet servant, it makes me feel bad, and I don't know why I feel this towards him. I never cared that the servants would talk or not, I could barely stand their voices… But this teen… He is different…
- You know, you can speak. It's not that I care, but as much as I know about you is that you're not mute, so use your voice more often.
- H-Hai…
- That's something. Well, what kind of food you like. Or will you be satisfied with something the cookers have?
- I really am not very finicky about food… something will be fine… - I could barely hear his voice, but at least he spoke.
- Very well.
We kept walking for some time and then we arrived to the kitchen. The cookers looked at me with surprise stamped on their face but I didn't give a fuck of what they were thinking.
-Give him some food! - I ordered pointing at Kakarott. Quickly the cookers nodded and put their hands at work. I pointed to a chair and to a table for him to sit and he did as I said… hmmm… he is quite obedient… that's good, that's good… I think the things I've done to him were more than enough for him to know his place. Soon the food was ready and the cookers put a bunch of plates in front of him. I saw as is eyes got wide with curiosity and shock.
- What is it?-I asked suddenly making him jump and look at me. He just stared at me for some time until my eyebrows rose with impatience, he clearly understood I was running out of patience and he spoke.
- It's just that… I'm not used to see or eat this amount of food… - WHAT? A Saiyan loves to eat. A Saiyan loves food almost as much as he loves power. But this is the first time I hear one say that he wasn't used to eat that much. MUCH? That's not even half of what I eat!
- How old are you exactly?
- 17, sir. – That's even worse! A Saiyan in that age would eat the double that an adult Saiyan would eat, but, for him, that amount of food is too much? That's not good for him!
WAIT! WHY THE HELL AM I WORRIED? Ah, fuck it, he will eat what he wants anyway.
- Eat whatever you want. I won't make you eat if you don't want to.
- Thank you sir… - He whispered.
- Whatever…
He ate at a slow pace. We weren't worried about the time anyway. We had plenty of it. The night was still a kid and we could still sleep quite a lot.
So... That's all for now.
Also don't forget to review and leave your opinion for me to know where can get better.
See ya all!
