I don't own DBZ. Thank you for the reviews!

…

"You are dismissed" Frieza said. I nodded politely and stood up.

Just as I was leaving the Throne Room, the fourteen-year-old and his two Saiyan guards came in.

"Lord Frieza" Vegeta said as they kneeled down before him. His tail was wrapped tightly around his waist, but its tip was moving uneasily. Something was wrong.

I walked away as slowly as I could, so that I could at least hear what Vegeta had to say.

"Planet Jikab has been successfully destroyed" he said in a low tone of voice. Oh, no.

"Excuse me, Vegeta?" Frieza said in a very, very cold voice.

The fear that ran through the three bodies was awful.

"Planet Jikab was…"

"I HEARD YOU, MONKEY! You… destroyed Jikab?"

Planet Jikab was one of the closest alliances Frieza had. They were weak, and the planet was small, but it had a lot of goods that were very useful for him. They had the materials that made up almost every weapon in the army and even some parts of the ship.

"Y-yes, sir."

"I specifically told you to kill three quarters of the population!"

I finally reached the door and let it shut behind me, but I stayed there for a while.

"I… know. I'm-I'm sorry, my Lord"

"You are sorry? Oh, no, you're not. YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS TO BE SORRY, MONKEY! I will give you one minute to explain yourself. How and why did you destroy Jikab? And don't tell me you forgot your orders, because I know saiyans, as stupid as they are, have decent minds to remember important things. NOW SPIT IT!" he screamed. He was very pissed.

"I... I…"

"Nappa and I misunderstood Vegeta's orders, my Lord" Radditz said.

"You shut up! I know that's a lie! Come on, monkey! Speak!"

"Lord Frieza, Radditz is right! Vegeta told us to destroy three quarters of the population but we…"

"I SAID SHUT UP! You two, back to your quarters! Zarbon, bring the rod! Vegeta, speak!"

"L-lord Frieza I… I… let my… rage… and my pride…"

"I knew it… You stupid sayian. Can't you do anything right?"

Radditz and Nappa stepped out and looked at me. I stared back with a questioning glare.

They just shook their heads and walked back to their quarters.

I knew Vegeta had suffered of a tantrum. He hated it when Frieza sent him on a mission where he couldn't destroy the planet, for we always used these missions to get rid of all that tension and rage that consumed him while he was on the ship.

But he usually followed orders. 'This time something must have gone wrong.'

My thoughts were interrupted by a clank and a cry of agony.

"YOU STUPID BRAT! HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO GET ALL THE GOOD MATERIAL BROUGHT FROM JIKAB NOW? WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU, MONKEY?" this sentence combined with more clanks, screams and sounds of breaking bones. "I should probably kill you, so you can stop making stupid mistakes! I told you to kill the population so that the Jikabians would give us three times what they gave us before without opposing resistance! BUT YOU DESTROYED THEM! YOU IMBECILE!"

I walked away, knowing full well the rest of the conversation. Frieza's taunting, clanks, cracks, screams, begging. I hated it.

I entered my room only to find the two saiyans standing there.

"Doctor, we were looking for you."

"What is it?"

"Vegeta. While we were on Jikab, we were killing the people just as Frieza said, but suddenly… one man said that saiyans were beasts, that they were despicable" Radditz's fists clenched and his eyes narrowed as he spoke "He then said that King Vegeta had made a good decision in making a deal with Frieza, and giving him his son, because Vegeta deserved to suffer under the tyrant. Then Vegeta just… snapped! He screamed and began to kill everyone desperately. We tried to stop him but he was just too…"

"He was crazy" Nappa continued. "He killed everything he saw; he grabbed the people and tore them apart! He suddenly climbed to his pod, and blasted off into space, always cursing Frieza's name. We climbed to our own pods to stop him and when we arrived it was too late. He threw an enormous ki blast… Bigger than any other I have ever seen before, and the planet just exploded. Not having enough with it, he began to send little ki blasts to the rests of the planet, until he passed out."

I raised my eyebrows. One hell of a tantrum.

"And then what happened?"

"He woke up in the way back and didn't remember anything. He had to tell him what had happened. When he realized what he had done, he just turned off his scouter and was too silent." Radditz said.

"We… would like to know if you can do anything about him."
"I can't. I know what's going on with the boy. He is in the pure line between sanity and madness, and perhaps a little too close to the worst side. He can't control himself any longer. Aren't you proud of being warriors? Well, the kid gets physically abused every day of his life and his young brain can't take it anymore. His blood boils with hatred. Pure, pure hatred. Tell me something, have any of you ever dared to look at him in the eye when he is mad?"

"No." they said, kind of ashamed.

"Why is that?" I asked, glaring at them.

"His eyes just… send tremors down your spine." Radditz muttered.
"Just like…" Nappa began.

"…Frieza's." I said. "Because Frieza has molded him to his own image. Tell me something, when was the last time that you saw him smile? And not evilly because he was murdering someone, or because he earned some miserable scraps of extra food for his good work. REALLY smiling. Like… that scowling of his fading away. Huh?" I question.

They sighed.

"Never since he came here."

"This ship is full of people that hate him for his very existence. Frieza absolutely despises saiyans and one of the main reason he has him here is because he enjoys toying with him… Besides of course, of the fact that Vegeta is very, very strong." I stated coldly as I exited the room, motioning for the saiyans to follow me to the Medical bay. "His brain is too damaged now. Tell me, what would he do if you didn't follow his orders? Or if you insulted him, attacked him?"

"He would snap and probably kill us both!" Radditz said.

"There you go. Any other question?"

They shook their heads and left.

…

Was walking back to my room after a long, boring day. I was very surprised that Vegeta hadn't come for a tank, but then deduced that Frieza might had denied it to him.

As I passed through Vegeta's room to get to the elevator (his room had been changed to the same floor of the medical bay, mostly to mock him) I heard voices – a voice.

"B-but I can't. He's too strong. I can't possibly beat him right now…" his voice was shaky and scared. I was startled to hear a sudden change in it, almost believing that there was someone else there speaking "NO MATTER! I will. I will defeat him and get back what's mine. I'll make him beg and suffer… I will kill him!"

I knocked on the door.

"Vegeta?"

"What?"

I frowned.

"Open up."

"I don't want to!"

"Vegeta, open up!" I knew he needed to talk to someone, he just wouldn't admit it.

"Go away!"

I didn't, and he knew I wouldn't. After a while, he opened up and looked at me with narrowed eyes.

"Vegeta, are you alone in there?"

"Of course I am! Now, what do you want?"

I sighed in the inside. He was pissed off all the time now. I could see the gashed in his thin body and the dry blood caking his entire form. He was trembling very slightly, I didn't know if it was pain, rage or coldness. Probably all of them. He had one arm across his chest, holding his ribs, and his other arm was lying limply on his side. His legs looked like they were going to give up any time soon. "Well?" he urged.

I narrowed my eyes and spoke slowly. "What happened back there, Vegeta?"

"This guy insulted me and I gave him a lesson!" despite his rude tone, his voice was weak and tired.

"By destroying his planet?"

"And him."

"Jikab, Vegeta. JIKAB! What were you thinking?"

"I don't care how important Jikab was for that hideous lizard!"

I shook my head slowly and tried to get a better look of his injuries. He was much taller than before (of course), almost as tall as me.

"He didn't let you have a tank tonight, did he?" I muttered. He had some serious injuries. He didn't answer and just looked away. After a while, he just drew back and sat on his bed.

"I don't need you. I can take care of myself."

"I know that." I muttered. "But not when it is against Frieza."

"Shut up." He said. "One day I will beat him"

"That's for sure. Meanwhile try to control that temper of yours, Vegeta!"

"What? CONTROL WHAT? What do you want from me? Right, Vegeta! Live in this fucking hell; get your ass beaten by almost everyone, especially by the one that destroyed your race… BUT DON'T GET ANGRY! Why can't everyone get I'm… I'm…" he squeezed his eyes shut and tightened his grip around his chest. It was too much for his body. He finally opened them up and looked at me. "I'm only fourteen and I already know what hell tastes like" he whispered.

I sat beside him and looked through the high, small window.

"Someday you will be free, Vegeta."

"This… yearning for freedom and revenge is killing me and driving me crazy… yet it is the only thing that can keep me alive." He whispered.

"Yeah"

"Because" he continued "I don't care about my race anymore. I never got to see much of it, and the same goes for my planet. My father… pfft, what can I say? He sold me to this cruel monster and never tried to get me back. And even if he did… I can't remember him either. I barely remember anything that doesn't have to do with this ship." He deepened his scowl and looked at me once again "I have the slight suspicion that Frieza destroyed my planet, instead of an asteroid. I kind of… know it. I can't be sure, though, but I don't care. My thirst of revenge bases on one single fact: My pride. Myself. He won't break me. I will kill him before he does. For I am the Prince of All Saiyans!" he coughed slightly and sighed.

I smirked.

"He won't." I whispered.

"I will kill Frieza."

Not a second too late, a chilling voice sounded behind us.

"Really, Vegeta?"

We both went deadly pale. Frieza smiled cruelly as he made his way towards us.

I'm sorry I'm being a bit too slowly on the passing of years. I have good ideas and all, and I'll try to skip even more, so that it wont be too long.

So, tell me, how was it?

Thank you all
