Here it is
Gotenks ran as fast as he could but his legs wouldn't obey him. He kicked the air as strong as he could and made bumping sound with the muddy ground as his heart beat raced up. He knew he couldn't get caught or else he would be drowning in hell flame. His power was draned, he could not fly, go ssj, nothing. The two people he had met were now dead, and the killer was coming after him.
The pain hit him, some one had stabbed him though the stomach. Gotenks landed on the ground flat on his now bleeding stomach. "Do it. Kill him!" A womans voice rang into Gotenks ears. He rolled over and slowly opened his eyes. "SCREAM I dare you, kid," the man said, Gotenks opened his mouth then closed it. "Ve-Vegeta... Why..." Gotenks whispered, more gasping for air. There in front of him was Vegeta, or at least some one that looked like vEgeta. His eyes were Red, and his skin was pale. "Kill him Vegeta! Now!" THe woman screamed at Vegeta who just stood there. "Oh, Why cant you. This is a wast of time dont you think? He is just a brat, he cant do no harm." Vegeta smirked, "Besides Im not in the mood." With that the Woman snorted, her hair turning a odd green. She then slowly started to dissaper into the ground, turning into what seemed like Grass.
Gotenks was close to passing out, when he felt himself being picked up. "Wha- Put me down." He told Vegeta who was carrying him towards the camp. "Shut up kid and sleep." Vegeta mummbled. Gotenks was about to protest but he slowly felt himself lose his sight. Vegeta shook his head. "I wish you didnt have to die, kid. Its really sad, you have not done anything. But, I cant let you telling anyone about this." Vegeta put Gotenks down next to the Camp fire. Everyone was asleep, so Vegeta made his kill as silent as possible. His eyes glowed wine red as he felt the blood run in his hands. Quickly they turned Black, his skin was still pale, to pale. Vegeta moved over to the fire and watched it for a split second before shoving his bloody hand into it. Holding back a cry of pain he took his time pulling it out. Once out he took a deep breath, staring at the burn. Relaxing his burn started to leave his hand, until it was finally gone.
Vegeta looked down at the lifeless body of Gotenks before, moving to the tent where Bulma slept. She was so peaceful, her features were soft, relaxed. Before he could do anytihng Bulma was woken up by a scream of horror. Everyone made there way out of the tent to see what Yamcha was yelling about. They all gasped at seeing Gotenks Dead. Vegeta on the other hand moved his way to Teins tent. He layed his hand down onto Teins burning head, with out any more thoughts of the matter he sent a small flick of ki killing Tein fast. Vegeta quickly got up and moved out side of the tent, they were still surronding Gotenks. Vegeta quickly made his way to the tent where Bulma and he slept. Taking off his clothes he exposted his full body to the cold air. Vegeta felt chills run down his back as he finshed putting his pants on over his boxers.
Vegeta knew he was there but he made no move to turn. "Vegeta, last chance. Bulmas, time is near." The man moved closer to Vegeta, placing his hand on Vegetas bare shoulder. "Ryan... not yet, Please." Vegeta whispered satring at the long sleeve shirt in his hands. "Listen to me, I told that Kid, a sayain that we will kill. You killed him for me, but you didnt bring back that 3rd eyed man. You killed him too." The man whispered into Vegeta's ear, making Vegeta frezze. " Ill, find some one else." Vegeta turning to look at the man. "I want... Gouks son... wht is his name, Gohan." With that the man, dissapered in the air. Vegeta shook his head and put his shirt on.
Vegeta started to feel dizzy, as he moved towards the group. Goku had brought out the body of Tein and was now layed next to Gotenks. Vegeta, started to feel his mind wonder. "Vegeta? Are you okay?" Bulma asked lookign at him with unsured eyes. Vegeta was about to speak but failed when he hit the floor. Everyone moved to him. "vEgeta, Vegeta! Trunks yelled to his dad. Vegeta mummbled sometihng but was not audioble. "Vegeta!" Piccolo called out, but the Prince was to far gone. His mind was in flash back, he couldnt stop it. His life started over once again. He saw his father get killed by Frezza, his mother, his planet, his mind was racing.

(Vegetas Flash Back)
The walls of the old building that Frezza kept them in were all gray and covered in dust. Everything reeked of old age and decay. "Go down the hall, turn right, then left, then straight ahead you'll see a door." It was the first thing, the uniformed guy had said since they left the Frezza's ship hours before. Vegeta nodded slowly as a reply, before the soldier added: "Your name and belongings will be in there." The soldier bid him farewell with a small nod and stepped behind him. Vegeta let out a gasp of surprise, as a row of metal bars suddenly separated them and baffled, he stood still as the soldier went back the way they came. He then ran a hand through his Black hair, as he hesitantly continued down the old corridor. The gray walls he passed were all marked with huge numbers that didn't make any apparent sense. He mentally noted them anyways. The walls widened into a round room with five doors. It was lit by a deam white light focused in the middle of the room, and as he stepped in, the entryway behind him was also immediately blocked by metal bars. He didn't remember ever feeling so uneasy as he did in that moment. His tail that was once around his waist was now swinging behind him. He was a little feared, he was only a kid, only 6.
Nothing more happened. The room was quiet, and dust was visible in the air. He looked around, every door had metal signs on them. He stepped up to read the one on the door closest to him. He tried pulling the handle, but the door was locked. So was the next two, but he almost fell over pulling the handle of the third, which opened. He regained balance and looked at the sign on the door: It read Veg-Teuk.
The Prince frowned. If the door was the only one unlocked, that had to mean it was his room. The soldier had told him his name would be in the room... But it didn't really sound name-like to him. It was not even his name. He turned his eyes from the sign and stepped into the small room. There was barely anything inside, a low bed, a table and a small chair. It had him think of a prison cell. He was a prince not one to be put in Prison.
He looked into the brighter room behind him, before stepping further inside what probably would become his new home. Hesitantly, he sat down on the bed. Assumption confirmed, he already feared for an aching back. Something caught his eyes on the wall by the pillow. 9Aw-7134p. 'Some kind of code?' He thought.
"Who're you?"
Vegeta jumped, standing up quickly. In the door stood another guy whose Blonde almost white hair stood out in the dimly lit surroundings. He wore a pair of dark pants and was bare-chested, His eyes were a clam warm brown. Vegeta blinked a few times before he remembered to answer "I'm…" breaking himself off, he glanced towards the ground then bakc up to the older boy. "I'm… Vegeta. Prince Vegeta." The older boy followed the young Prince's eyes to the floor. He was pale, and drops of sweat glimpsed all over the visible skin of his tensed body. Vegeta thought he was trembling. As the didn't seem to want to continue the conversation, Vegeta asked "Who are you?" In a tone, trying to sound brave, but he wasnt so sure he was."Ryan, How old are you?" said the boy quickly. Vegeta smirked, "6... how old are you?" Ryan looked at Vegeta with a smile, a dark sad smile. "13..." He then paused, before adding "The others will be back soon, too." Vegeta raised an eyebrow.
Ryan looked at him in silence for a moment before sighing. "You should get ready, they'll launch you soon, for tests" he said, and suddenly his tone of voice sounded serious. Vegeta looked confused "Launch me? Test?" Vegeta sat back down staring at Ryan. "Yeah," Ryan nodded. "Welcome, Frezza must have taking you... your a Prince. THen you must be powerful," Ryan smirked, "Yes, I am the Prince. The Prince of all sayains." Vegeta smirked and Ryan gasped lightly. "Your, your a sayian." He asked seeing thetail that now was in front of Vegeta slightly. "Yes." Vegeta smiled at Ryan eho only started to laught a sad laugh. "Welcome once again..." He paused. "Hope you last longer than the last kid." he added as he stepped out of sight.

"He is not waking!" Gohan yelled. "Vegeta..." Bulma whispered as Gohan and her tried to cool Vegetas feaver. Vegeta whispered something out but they could not understand it. "Wake up for me..." Bulma whispered.

(Vegetas Flash Back)
The complete quiet in the round room reached the border of ridiculous. None of them looked at each other. Ryan stood leaned to the door of his room, looking thoughtfully towards the ceiling. The others sat on the floor, one in the center of the room and one a little away. They, too, seemed lost in thought. Vegeta hadn't asked their names yet. They'd turned up moments after Ryan, and then they'd been talking happily. Joking about mistaking and breaking something wrong. A few seconds after they'd entered, a very loud sirene-like sound had almost scared the life out of Vegeta. The other three had immediately gathered in the middle of the room, and Vegeta had hesitantly joined them, expecting for his so-called "launch" to take place. But nothing had happened. The siren had gone quiet, no one entered, and the others had stopped talking, just standing still. They had hardly looked at him, but spent the following thirty minutes staring at the barred door from which Vegeta had first entered.
He dared to look at the one closest. He was muscular, sturdy-looking. His hair and eyes were black and he looked young - around Vegeta's own age, he thought. He was dressed all in black, tight-fitted clothing. It looked like a specialized suit of sorts. Ryan's hoarse voice finally broke the silence. "Introduce yourself," he said, looking at Vegeta. The Prince looked up and found all the others to be staring at him, awaiting. "Uh," he stuttered. "I'm Vegeta Uh, Prince Vegeta... but the sign says Veg-Teuk. The one that opened.. this one.. I am.. uh 6 years of age..." He trailed off at seeing Ryans smirk and bowed slightly.
The one sitting in the center of the room stood up. He smiled at Vegeta and reached a hand out. "I'm Bryson, they do call me Mushroom. I am 12." he said. His voice had a lively sound to it unlike Ryans. Vegeta took his hand to shake it, but froze as he looked at the Brysons face. His voice might have been lively sounding, but his eyes were far from so. They were an unnatural Purple color and dark circles made them stand out even more in the young man's face. Clearing his throat, trying to cover up the immediate shock, Vegeta took Bryson's hand. It was cold. He looked over to Ryan as if just noticing it, Accross Ryans chest he had black lines as if marks on. But Vegeta could tell it was his skin, And ryans eyes were warm brown yet if you started at them long you saw the Blood red drop likes in the center where the black dot should been.
"Neil... they call me Koie. You will be called by them Veg-Teuk, I 8." the muscular guy on the floor said shortly. He nodded towards Vegeta who returned the gesture. He was about to ask if they were born like that or what when suddenly the siren sounded once more, and all four of them froze. Neil got up and looked at Ryan who nodded before walking past him, towards Bryson and Vegeta. He stopped to look at Vegeta for a moment, and a small smile appeared on his lips. "Welcome to the world, To the world of death. You might not know so much about it so far as you are a Prince, and such young age. But you have some fight in you, if your a sayain. Frezza took you for that, keep strong." he said. Neil and Bryson both chuckled knowingly before following Ryan through the barred door, that now stood open. Vegeta's heart started racing as he joined them. He was the youngest, he was scared.
They moved down the long hall ways, the gray walls seemed to get smaller and closer each hall turn. "Vegeta.. your a PRince. Your name is Vegeta so I must ask, where is your father. King Vegeta?" Neil asked in a small tone. Vegetal ooked down "Dead.." Ryan smirked at Vegetas sad face. "You got us now kid, we are your family. Trust me..." Ryan grabbed onto Vegetas arm and pulled him to his self. Bryson hit Ryan on the arm, "Be nice" vegeta was confused but his thoughts got in fear mode. As they stopped in front of a door, "get ready." Bryson whispered.
The door opened and then everything happened at double-speed. In came five men, wearing White and masks covering their faces. They knocked over Ryan and held him down and the others holding them down while they let them, and G-Dragon barely had time to be horrified, before he also was knocked over by a fourth. The pain from hitting the cold floor made him yell out. Vegeta felt a short-lived pain in the neck, as the man above him stuck a syringe in and injected something. In the second before he fainted, he heard the man yell "Number 4 is launching!"

"He is waking up!Daddy get up!" Bra yelled in joy as Vegeta opened his eyes. The Z fighters moved quickly over to Vegetas body. "Get.. out of here. Gohan... is.." Vegeta started to caugh as his hands started to shake. Bulma took one of his hands then pulled back fast, "His hand is like boiling water..." Bulma told them grabbing a cool coth and placing it to Vegetas head. "Vegeta clam down its going to be okay... what do you mean I am next?" Gohan asked in question. Vegeta opened his mind but then he passed out before he could talk again. Goku signed then quickly moved his hand to Vegeta eyes. "What are you doing?" Piccolo asked as Goku opened one of Vegeta's eyes. Then fell back. "His eyes.. they are..." Gouk trailed off.."A sky Blue.." Trunks finshed. Bulma's thoughts went back to her dreams, in them Vegeta was... like this, no.. it couldnt.

(Vegetas pov) (Vegetas Flash Back)
I opened my eyes looking around the room. I was back on Frezza's Ship, with the others.. my friends. The Test had been going on for 6 mouths now and we get the next 6 mouths back on the Ship with Frezza. The reason we came back to the Ship was to destroy planets for Frezza, then back to the Launching of Test building we go. I was laying in bed with the others, awake now. We had a knew member to our group of testers. Her name was Mattie, they called her Sungookie. She just turned 13, same age as Ryan. Bryson was now 13 also, he jsut had a brithday.
I sat up smelling her scent, Bryson had gone to check on Mattie who was in the other room. The others caught her scent but obivously they weren't too bothered by her presence. I looked around even though we lived in luxury it was still a bit messy for a guest. I sigh nudging Neil convincing the other boy to help me straighten up. We manage to get it cleaned up a bit. Bryson smiled walking in the room with his arm around Mattie's waist. I forced a smile greeting her, I see all of my friends even me a bit upset with Bryson, but Mattie was to old for me I was jsut a kid I will have turned 7 in 2 weeks but still. Mattie is the only woman to see us as people not the monsters we were.
I laugh coaching her on the next move of the training in the room. My friends continue to discuss this situation out of Mattie's earshot. 'We'll have to keep a strict watch over her', Ryan sighs in his head. "Loser LOSER!." Ryan joked as she lost to me. "You lost to a 6 year old kid!" He joked. Bryson puts him in a headlock making everyone laugh. I ran over to Ryan and Bryson tackling them to the floor. Neil and Mattie laughed.
All was fine until Nappa open the door grabbing me by the arm. "Hey whats the big idea leave Vegeta aLone!" Bryson yelled his eyes glowing gold. Nappa only laughed and dragged me out, down the hall, to the left, right, left, right, another right until we were infron of the door where Frezza had his throne. "Master, Lord Frezza here he is. im sorry.." Nappa whispered the last part in my ear before leaving me with the Tirent. "Vegeta... Vegeta. Oh is my little Monkey Prince, doing? Huh?" He asked come over to me. I growled and he just chuckled. Before I could react he was behind me, lips to my ear. "Your a sick little mosnter Vegeta... YOU! Will be the end of your 'Friends'..."
(End of Flashback but not od POV)
"Vegeta!" Goku helped me up as I shook my head, looking around the room I knew where we were. "No...NO!" I screamed then looked around for Gohan. "He is not here! THey took Ghoan! AHH! Shit! This cant be happening." I said looking at everyone... Thats when I saw it. "Oh my god.." I moved pass the shocked and scared Krillen and picked up the necklace... my old necklace. "Vegeta..." Yamcha finally found the words to speak. "SHut up." I told him as a I ran to middle of the floor. I got down on my knees and ran my hand over the old tile, then lift a broken one. There under it was a picture of Ryan, Neil, Mattie, and Bryson. Under that was a box, I pulled it up and opened it. Dust flew every where, I didnt care. I put my hand in and pulled out a peice of paper. The tears came to my eyes: "We will stay together! Never depart, forever family! Names: Ryan, Neil/Koiel, Mattie/Sungookie, Bryson/Mushroom, and Vegeta/Veg-Teuk." I looked in the box and pulled out a balck beeded necklace, putting it in my pocket. I then heard there voices. "Vegeta! VEGETA!" They had been calling for a while. "Yes..." Yamcha moved to me standing over me. "Explain! Why is your eyes Green, why are we here. WHAT HAPPEN! WHERE IS GOHAN!" Yamcha got louder and Louder. I sighed, and got up, moving over to the old bed he once stayed on.
"There was no end to my beginning. I'm forever cursed with this monster... power. These hands that I call my own, there have been covered in my own blood as well as others so many times I have dirtied them. How I've been brought up as a child, as a monster... Im not going to make this quick, im telling you straight. It's difficult for me to convey my feelings. Now I can't tell how I feel or even if I feel, some time I know I do...happiness, sadness, fear, anger...love. I can feel them other times, i am numb. But from time to time, I would learn as a kid growing. I was always curious, no hypnosis or trance could put down my curiosity.
After my family was killed, all I could remember was darkness and pain. Lots of pain. Needles ripped through my skin, lights would blind my eyes, and my heart would race until it felt like it had stopped beating. By now, I've come to learn two of the five emotions, fear and anger. There was always constant fear when I was child. Frezza, his men taunted me ...tortured me after I went under his control.. in rank i guess."
I closed my eyes then opened them to find they all were listening. I hated this but they had to know.
","You are going in this cage for a short time... then you will be taken out. Its just fit for a King". is what Frezza said once I got there. That's when these men in white uniform, guns, took me away and braught me to this building, I found these rooms. This door was unlocked so I entered. I met my old friends here. I never understood why Frezza would do this to me, at least not at first. I guess I was too much to handle. As long as I didn't have to look at that bastard's face, I thought I was going to be safe. There goes life wanting to kick me in the ass. Once a month, he would come to visit me, not to reminsice the 'good old days,' but to take more tests on me, his personal tests. I already had tests coming at me but Frezza HE wanted to do his kind of tests to me."
Bulma rested her head on my shoulder and Bra went under my arm "Thats horrorable!" my daughter told me. I held her tight to my side, my eyes turned Blue, they all frozze slightly at the sight, my hair then started to change to a light brown. "WHOA!" Krillen said to my hair. "Yes.. I know." I glared at them and they shut up.
"My body was continuously developing odd transformations. I would have cravings and my temperature would burn, but my skin would as cold as ice. At that point, my heart would exhilirate so fast, it would stop. My sound of my heartbeat would be gone. I'm dead, I thought to myself, but the unbelievable part is that I can still move, function, think, progress. Like some savage. I've killed so many people that I've lost count. I can only remember seeing myself covered in blood and my friends.. old friends just cackling with pure fascination.
THe others that were with me was Neil who was only 2 years older, Bryson 7 years older, Mattie who was 7 years older, then Ryan... also 7 years older almost 8... he was the boss more like the ring leader. He protected us, no matter what."
The door opened and I stood up, Kakarot did also. "Vegeta... Welcome back. My brother." I opened my mouth in shock as the man steped into the light with a gund in his right hand and 3 metal spikes out his neck. "Neil... I looked at his muscalur body and he looked my up and down too. "This is your 'Friend!' Neil!" Goku yelled in shock. I smirked... But that faded fast at his next words. "You never finshed your tests Vegeta... time for you too. We will be back, soon." Neil looked over to Bulma who paniced moving behind Vegeta. "Soon.." He mummbled and walked out, then coming back in. "Food?" he threw bags of chips in. Before leaving and shutting the door.. locking it.
Immediately, Yamcha was pumped. Throwing fists in the air, it's like he's prepared for this day his whole life. Piccolo, Trunks, and Krillen just sat there quietly, thinking it over.
My eyes burned again, I could feel myself change. Goku moved over to me but stopped. They all stared at me. "I WILL GET YOU GUYS OUT! AHHHHHH!" I powered up my hair turning blonde, my eyes pale blue-sh green. But mu skin went a dark tan, under my eyes were now black, unders my lips had 2 metal small spikes coming out, my nose had chains, and spikes out the notrols. Krillen fell on the floor in fear. From the corner of my eyes, I could see Gokus stare at me, waiting for my answer. What I say, goes. Everyone was waiting. "Get me out of here. No more tests... not for you either. Gohan, we will find. Save." I growled.
I broke down the door with my hands. The power had scared the others, my power leval finally more that Kakarots. I was the most powerful. My body began to move on its own, my neck cracked as I growled low, under my breath. With just one small clench of my eyes, the rock on the floor turned into rubble. Everything Frezza took away from me, I was going to do the same to him. I would destroy the building that was still up and running still for the remaining family of his. I stared at myself in the mirror across from us, I had stopped so had they. I could see my eyes glowing, red. My hand reached for the collar of my shirt as I pulled it down, I ran my nails accross my skin, bleeding, cutting down to the bone to see a barcode imprinted on my bone itself. My upper lip quivered when I remembered him branding me like I was some item. As long as this is on me, they'll know where I am. We have been branded. We would have to constantly run if we wanted to keep our freedom, unless we stop them all. I growled again before I threw a piece of rock at the mirror, shattering it to a thousand pieces. Bulma took a step back, "Sorry Woman" With that I glaced down the hall, memeoirs came to my head. This was it.
