Okay so this is late… yet again :D But I've had some trouble writing this chapter, or more so coming up with something for the plot. Anyways I'm sorry if it's a bit rough but I just watched Memoirs of a Geisha and my mind is still on that movie. BTW the androids refer to Frieza as Grandfather most of the time.

Chapter 14

**Where you go, I will follow**

I glanced at the blue-haired female from my perch on a desk. Her eyes were closed and her body was unmoving. My sister had told me not to worry, but how could I not? Grandfather had requested we retrieve this woman to enlist in his ranks and now I had over damaged her.

She had been in our possession for two weeks now. Her wounds were healed but she was still unconscious. If Eighteen and I delivered her in this condition Grandfather would be angry with us for sure. I was programmed to be human and so this fact had me a bit uneasy.

The air system turned on and it made the females hair flutter slightly. I felt a tingling in my palms that suggested I wanted to touch it. Well she was unconscious… I walked up to her slowly careful not to wake her. My fingertips grabbed the tresses on their own and I smiled at the fIeeling. The database told me their texture was that of a cloth called silk.

The blue strands easily fell through my fingers and when they fell back into place against her collarbone her eyes flashed open. At that moment I knew what the word fear was and I was suddenly ecstatic for her restraints because the emotion in her eyes was angry, fury in its purest form. And that fury was aimed at me.

I didn't say anything just cautiously backed away from her. The female bared her teeth at me and let a ripping sound escape from her throat, a snarl. My body rooted itself to the spot right then and there. Somehow this woman had me under control. She bared her teeth again but didn't struggle against her restraints. Apparently she knew the effort was futile. That would make her smart. Suddenly I understood why grandfather wanted her. She was smart and angry, very angry. And from what my database could tell me anger was a valuable emotion during a battle.

The cold sticky regeneration fluids slowly drained away. My eyes snapped open to a common scene of artificial light and bustling doctors. The only thing out of place was the uncontrollable guilt and fury I felt in my chest, well that Tarble and Kakarot.

Climbing out of the tank I plastered a scowl on my face. Right now I was in no mood for playing around and people tended to know that when they saw this expression. Tarble was one of the few you just couldn't put down. "Brother? Are you okay? Mother and I were so worried…" He trailed off looking at me with those desperate eyes.

"I'm fine someone get me a pod!" Several heads popped up at my request but Kakarot's halting hand had everyone turn back to their work. Pulling on my clothes quickly I sent a growl in Kakarot's direction. Bulma had been taken and no one took what was mine. After my clothes were securely on I pushed past Kakarot and Tarble but that didn't stop them from following.

Picking up my pace I hopped to throw them off but they were like ducklings I just couldn't shake. Finally Kakarot stepped in front of me, halting my movement. "You dare stop me?" Kakarot shook his head as Tarble moved beside him.

"No but you need to think this out Vegeta." I glared at him, such absurd underlings. "What is there to think about?" Tarble kept shooting me worried glances and Kakarot was stumped momentarily trying to think of a few good reasons to slow me down. What I didn't know was that a few seconds could really up someone's game.

"First off you don't know who took her. Second you don't know where these people are headed." I rolled me eyes. "Easy its Frieza's men who took her. My proof is Bulma told me he had some crazy ass scientist who had created the things that took her, so there. The second one will only slow me down momentarily. I've only been out for what? Two hours?"

"Brother you've been out for two weeks." My glare shifted from Kakarot to Tarble's boyish features. Once I saw there was no hint of sarcasm in his eyes I let out a furious roar and pushed Kakarot out of my way. Two weeks! Being out that long there was no telling what could have happened to Bulma! Ki pulsed beneath my feet and I let it carry me to the space port.

There was no fucking way I was staying now. "Kakarot you can do nothing to stop me. I have my scouter if there is any information contact me through it." This is when I hopped into the pod and set the coordinates heading in the direction my gut told me too. Just before the pod door slammed closed I had the satisfaction of seeing Kakarot's stupefied expression.

I don't know how long we just sat there and stared at each other. It was as if we had never come into contact with another living organism and this was our first time. For me it was because I knew what a scientific breakthrough his life meant. For him I wasn't quite sure. Maybe he was taking the term don't take your eyes off of her a bit too literally.

My brain was racing with the knowledge of artificial life. The only thing about himself that amazed me was his eyes. It was like Gero had managed to preserve the essence of ice itself in them. It wasn't just the color but it was the cold that emanated from them and they weren't liquid either. This young man's eyes were the definition of hard or solid. Of course Vegeta's eyes could harden like that as well but ice was very different from onyx.

Finally the piercing stare became too much and I broke the silence. "What's your name?" I mentally laughed at myself. Not the first question that would usually come out of a captive's mouth. Other people would go along the lines of why are you doing this or not really a question but please don't kill me. Then again I wasn't like most people.

"Seventeen", he answered. How odd. He was named after a number. I waited a bit to see if he had any questions but apparently he wasn't one for small talk. Now who in the galaxy could that remind me of? I snickered at my own sarcasm and in response the androids head cocked slightly to the side.

"Did I say something funny?" This just made me laugh harder for no apparent reason and his head cocked just a degree more to the right, his expression never changing. Gero had apparently made his robots stoic. Oh joy to the world.

"No", I sighed. "Then why were you laughing?" This was going to be a long ride. "Where are we going?" Seventeen's head whipped back to its right position and he smirked. Maybe he was not so stoic after all. "To Grandfathers." Grandfather? Oh fuck it. Frieza had officially come up with the weirdest title ever. "Frieza you mean?"

"Yes… Grandfather." Oh gods. I started laughing again. Frieza had just opened himself up for all kinds of verbal abuse. This may be a hell of a lot more fun than I initially thought. Of course I didn't know the androids had come to kidnap me. Speaking of androids…

"Don't you have a partner or something? A blonde female?" Seventeen nodded. Well Shit. Maybe they he was just the funny one. If tis other chick turned out to be a bitch she was the first to go after I got out of these restraints. "Why isn't she in here?"

Seventeen shrugged. "I think she is piloting the ship. She doesn't trust it on its own. Something about old piece of junk." I thought about that for a second… Okay so we were going to Frieza's ship. And I had the power to go super saiyan, well apparently Vegeta said I did. If you add all of this together then I could kill Frieza. The only problem… I couldn't go SS with just a snap of my fingers. Somehow I would have to convince these two to let me train. But how?

"Are you and your friend the only ones on this ship", I asked. This would be a very important piece of information. "She's my sister and yes." Okay one problem down, and two steps in my direction. Now I just had to come up with a plan. A plan to train and somehow get a tracker on this ship. No one said this was going to be easy….

My fingers tapped against each other, beating out a happy rhythm. Oh I was so ecstatic! No one was going to ruin my good mood. I had just received the transmission stating my androids had Bulma. These people were quick and efficient! Like my Ginyu Force! Oh it was such a good time to be alive.

The transmission was simple. The blonde android had just said "We have the traitor in custody", then the picture shifted to show Bulma strapped to a table that was standing upright. "We should be arriving in four weeks' time", then it had clicked off. Only two more weeks! Then I would have that conniving girl in my grasp.

I was such a clever emperor. I looked to my right shoulder and saw Zarbon standing there. He was ever the dutiful follower. "Zarbon?" His gaze quickly met mine. "Yes my lord?" I smiled at my title. I loved that title. "Do You think I am clever?"

"Of course my lord." He always knew the right thing to say. I smiled and let out a happy sigh. "Zarbon you can have the rest of the day off. I'm feeling happy; maybe I'll go kill some prisoners for sport." Zarbon just nodded. "Thank you for being so gracious my lord." I nodded my consent and he swept out of the room probably to go find the Ginyu's.

So it is decided. Down to the dungeons I must go!

Okay so not even 2,000 words but this was a filler chapter. I've already started the next one so it should be out soon. Hopefully before the weekend. Sorry for the length and the bad writing but it's all I got for you right now. Next time shit hits the fan! And I promise it'll be at least 5,000 words.
