A/N: Follow my friend Writer'sFantasy on twitter for fanfiction updates, quotes, and fun; at TheGirlWritesIt. Also follow me on twitter for fanfiction updates and my fanart. I posted Gin, Vegeta's 'fake fiancee' on twitter not too long ago! Follow me at hiiBreezy. Okay, now review replies!

Smalsa ; Thank you! Hahah, KV just wants what he thinks is best for his son. Well, I asked because I wanted to know if anyone was pining for some Raditz and Bulma action. I'm glad nobody is, I like Bulma and Vegeta together quite a bit.

KimiruMai ; Yeah, sometimes that's true.

Writer'sFantasy ; LOL right. Trunks is half human, though, and since Bulma is only half human, I'm not sure that the baby would be Trunks. xD

Sweetgilda ; Thank you! I have a lot in mind for Raditz. It's pretty hard keeping Vegeta even a little bit in character.

Isatran ; Thanks for reading and reviewing. Bulma and Vegeta are just great together.

Elleelle ; I mostly did that because I wanted suspense. It's supposed to give everyone the big question, "Is he really going to go through with it, or is he just playing along?" Hopefully this chapter clears things up a bit!

Lintu-lvr4 ; Oh gosh. I can hardly imagine the chaos Vegeta killing his own father would cause lololol. Thanks a bunch for being a constant reviewer and reader!

LunarSinner ; Thanks bro-ham. I don't want Raditz to become this story's Yamcha, so…hm.

Thanks to everyone who reads this story! I love you like a love song…baby. But seriously, everyone who favorites me & my stories, everyone who reviews…you are all amazing.

Chapter Ten – Reality Hurts

All I'd ever done was love her. Now I'm supposed to kill her?

I don't even want to hurt her. All I want to do is make her understand how I feel. How betrayed, how jealous. I don't even know if she knows how I feel for her. She must know that I have feelings for her, but is that all? Does she know that I'd do anything for her?

At first, I'd agreed to Frieza only because it'd been spur of the moment. I'd thought of all the times she'd talked of Vegeta to me, all the times she'd chosen him over me. All the times she had led me on. I thought of all the rude, low comments Vegeta was constantly saying to me, and of all the times he'd laughed as he'd punch me in training. Most of all, I was thinking of how he'd made Bulma fall in love with him, even though she was constantly stressing over him. How was he so much better than me on everybody's standards?

I don't want to kill either of them. I don't. Vegeta was once my friend, a long, long time ago, and I'm in love with Bulma. I can't do it.

We're about to reach Draven, and I'm just hoping that I can clear my head by killing a few hundred unknown faces. Or however many it may be.

I walk out to where the spaceship's opening is. I want to be the first out there.

"Landing in exactly one minute." The ship's intercom crackles.

I smile. Finally, I can let my anger out. Bulma may have changed me, but not that much. I still love to feel the snapping of bones by my hand; hear the pleading cries, even if I can't understand their language. Killing seemed to be the only thing I was good at.

The doors open. I step out. The planet's small, the ground is covered in some odd white stuff. I bend down and pick some up. It's cold and melts in my hand. It's falling from the cloudy, lavender sky. Was this snow? Bulma had told me about it once. It didn't snow on Planet Vegeta. I looked up and saw nobody in my sight range. Where were all of the people? I walk forward, my boots crunching the snow and leaving footprints.

There are no buildings. There are no mountains. Where are these people?

I step forward again and I fall into a hole that I hadn't noticed before. It was deep, and I barely fit through it. I landed with a thud right onto my damn tail. Suppressing a groan of pain, I got up and wrapped it tightly around my waist. These people must live underground.

"Hello?" I called out. The inhabitants of the planet emerged. Grotesque looking creatures, they were. They seemed to come out of the rocks. Their skin was rocky and reddish brown. They had no hair. Their eyes were just black; there were no whites in them. The creepy things were freaking me out. Snickering, I raise my right hand and form a decent sized ball of energy. I see it reflected in their dark eyes.

"Keep your eye on the birdie," And I blast the ones I can see with my energy wave. They crumbled to dust. I strut through the corridors of the underground world, feeling refreshed already. More of the creatures appear. I check their power levels, and they're only at a power level of fifty.

Pathetic.

I blast them, too. It's not as much fun as it usually is, though, because they seem to be emotionless. They don't even bleed.

I sigh, flying up and out of the hole I fell into. I gather a large, powerful, humming ball of energy at my side. Suddenly, I'm not in the mood for theatrics and I don't state the name of my attack before I release it. As I do, I'm hit with the revelation that I could be doing something extremely stupid. With no time to take it back, I release all of it and head toward the ship. I'm nearly halfway and an explosion rocks the ground. I fall face first into the cold snow, quickly getting back up. I turn to look back, and I see that smoke is billowing out of the hole. Of course, I killed all of the inhabitants, but I hadn't factored in that using that much energy could destroy the core of the planet, causing it to explode. Damn. Well, maybe I hadn't destroyed it. Even so, I just want to get off this freezing cold planet. My hands feel numb from these unfamiliar temperatures.

Running, I reached the ship. Frieza was standing outside of it.

"Zarbon? Zarbon, you damned fool, where in the hell are you?" He growled into his scouter.

"Lord Frieza, the purging is done." I said nervously.

"Damn it, Raditz, do you have any idea where Zarbon may be?" Frieza questioned. He seemed to be in a bad mood.

"No, I don't. Is it possible Vegeta may have overpowered him?" I blurt out. Frieza narrows his eyes. Whoops.

"No, monkey, that is not possible. Vegeta's a damn weakling." I ignore the slur. But how could Frieza think that Vegeta had a low power level? Was it possible the arrogant prince had suppressed it in the tyrant's presence? According to Bulma, it was possible. The ground shook slightly underneath my feet.

"Well, I'm ready to go. We'll have to check if Zarbon is still on Planet Vegeta. Perhaps his ship malfunctioned."

"Hm…Perhaps." Frieza walked back onto the ship and I followed. I was nearly sweating, scared that I'd be punished for being lazy about the purging because I'd eliminated all of them at once.

The ship took off. I wandered around for a bit, staying close to the windows, watching for Draven to blow up. I watched until it was out of sight. It seemed to stay in one piece.

I sighed. Another month on this ship. Just how close were Vegeta and Bulma now? Has she completely forgotten about me?

I open the door to the room Frieza usually stays in. He's sitting in a chair, looking out the window as usual. I clear my throat.

"Yes?" He glances over at me.

"Lord Frieza, I can't kill Vegeta or Bulma."

Frieza looks at me, scrutinizing my face. He doesn't seem to look away for a while. Finally, he speaks.

"That's too bad." He shakes his head.

"It is?" I question.

"I'll have to do it myself." He glares at me. "I didn't particularly want to kill the girl, but I can kill them both, I suppose. You're rather trustworthy. Don't say a word about our plans, Raditz. If I find out you do, I'll give you a slow and painful death."

I gulped in fear. "When do you plan on doing this?"

"Killing the two? Oh, not until the time is right. The time is not yet right to dispose of them."

My body relaxed. Bulma wouldn't be dying soon.

I nod and he dismisses me. Finding my way to my room, I lock the door once I enter and flop onto my bed.

Somehow, I'd have to tell Bulma and Vegeta what Frieza was planning to do. Knowing Vegeta, he'd rise to the occasion and save the day, as usual. Then, what of me? I'd be left to sit back and watch the romance unfold.

I relaxed my muscles, willing myself to fall asleep. After a month, I was falling asleep without too much difficulty. I still wish she loved me, not him.

Bulma Briefs, the half-saiyan genius, with those gorgeous blue eyes and that intriguing personality.

With her in my head, I fell asleep. But even dreams fade away, and when I awoke in the morning, I was facing the cold hard reality that she'd never view me as more than a friend, a brother.

Suddenly, I was very glad I had a month to think before we reached Planet Vegeta.

A/N: No, not OOC, because in this story, Raditz became a real softy…and even in the series, we never really knew his real personality. Review, please! Expect updates a bit more often, okay? Because I love you guys!

Challenge; Sing your abc's backwards while on a tightrope, riding a unicycle and patting your head. Also, you're on fire. :D Good luck with that.
