Me: Yeah. Good bye. Thanks for always reading the paper! I don't own anything.

Supreme Kai looked at Vegeta as he powered down all the way. He closed his eyes for a moment, feeling a bit dizzy, but dismissed it and approached him. The others were looking at him, too. He knew exactly what he wanted to say.

He had seen enough in the day with Majin Vegeta. He could hear thoughts, after all. When Vegeta was becoming a Majin, Supreme Kai was fucking surprised of what he had seen. It had taken him a while to understand what was going on in Vegeta's mind but when he had realized, it was a little bit too late.

Vegeta screaming, crying, begging, crawling, being mercilessly punched and kicked by demons that outnumbered and overpowered him by a lot. Vegeta being forced to kill, to torture, to watch while the ones he loved were killed before him. Being humiliated, burnt, broken, tortured… Every memory of the trembling little child that whimpered in fear and pain and begged for a rest, and the sadistic bastard that destroyed entire civilizations in a rampage of madness because he had to swallow all his feelings while he was inside the ship… All those memories were making Vegeta give in.

"Don't let him win, Vegeta! Fight it!" He had said. At first, Vegeta had begun to imagine different things. Bulma, Trunks, peace, love, home… "That's it! Fight it!" But then, the same dark, painful thoughts had returned.

"The past is the past, Vegeta!" Supreme Kai had said. "Don't think of it. Be innocent and clear."

Bad move.

"How can you say that? I am not innocent!"

And everything was lost. Babidi took control over Vegeta's mind.

Supreme Kai knew perfectly well that Vegeta was not innocent. After what he had said about the weaklings perishing and the strongest prevailing, he had seen the evilness in Vegeta's eyes, but he had understood with all those images. And then, when they were in the Tournament Field, and he had tried to stop Goku and Vegeta from discussing by saying: "Don't you see the Universe matters more than your meaningless squabble?"

Vegeta had answered:

"Meaningless, huh? What do you know of meaningless? Spend most of your life ruled by another! Watch your race dwindle to a handful! And then, tell me what has more meaning than your own strength!"

Supreme Kai had felt the horrors of losing everything he had to a monster, but he couldn't fathom the horror of being forced to live under that monster and being tortured to near death just for the sadistic amusement of him and his minions. For someone who had felt the horrors of endless emotional and physical pain, Vegeta was not a bad man. No child should've seen the things he saw, felt the things he felt. For goodness sakes, no being should ever be left lying on a puddle of his blood, crying his eyes out in horrific pain and with no energies to even call for help, or crawling helplessly to the medical bay while his body was bleeding dry and the other soldiers passed around him, either not noticing him or mocking him.

Yes, it was King Yemma's job to decide who to send to hell or heaven, but if he could prevent a tormented soul from going back to the horrors of hell… Then damn, he would.

"Supreme Kai?" Vegeta said at last.

"Vegeta." Supreme Kai sad, smiling. "I am glad you've finished Frieza once and for all."

"Hn."

"So what are your plans now, hmm?"

"My plans, you say?"

"Yes. I suppose you will go back to Bulma and Trunks."

Vegeta frowned. "No. You know perfectly well what I will do, Supreme Kai. And if you are planning on talking me out of it then…"

"At least give me a chance, Vegeta." Supreme Kai smirked. "Why exactly do you want to go back to hell, huh?"

Vegeta frowned. "You can read minds, can't you Kai?"

"Not always. I can only read loose thoughts, or loud thoughts. When a person is desperate to say something or too careless. Right now your mind is closed shut, Vegeta. Most of the times minds are closed, so…"

"I get the point. Can I go now?" he growled.

Supreme Kai chuckled. "Answer me, please."

"You saw how I behaved. I know Frieza deserved it, but I know now that I am not as sane as I thought I was."

"And what else did you expect?" Supreme Kai said calmly. "You are awfully sane, Vegeta. What you went through…"

"We are not going to discuss my past, Kai. I am not taking the risk now that I saw how easily I can lose control." He said determinedly.

"The risk, Vegeta? You know perfectly well that this planet needs you. You and Goku must fight together… And you must be with Bulma! It is your destiny."

"As I believe I told you before, Kai, what happens to this planet is none of my concern."

"Then why did you blow yourself up? It surely wasn't to save your Pride."

Vegeta looked down. "It was not for the planet. It was for Bulma, and Trunks."

"And you are going to leave them behind now just because you think it will make things better?"

"Why are you telling me this anyway? Why do you care? You have an entire galaxy to worry about!"

"Justice is my philosophy! After what you've done, you don't deserve to go to hell. Are you comparing yourself to Frieza, is that it?"

"What are you saying?" Vegeta roared.

"Well Frieza deserved to go to Hell! You think that's your place?"

Vegeta took a deep breath. He was exhausted.

"I can't compare myself to Kakkarot either." He said slowly.

"Goku is an entirely different case, Vegeta. Live while you can. Make up for everything you have done." Supreme Kai put a hand on Vegeta's deltoid and looked into the ebony eyes. "Tell me something. How do you think Chichi and Gohan felt when Goku didn't come back?"

"The harpy doesn't..."

"I'm not asking if you like her or not. Goku had the chance to go back home with them, and he denied it because he didn't want to cause any more trouble. Sounds familiar?"

Vegeta sighed and scratched his eyebrow. He just wanted to rest. Without hesitation, he fell back on his butt and crossed his legs, leaning his head on his hand, and his elbow on his knee. "What do you want from me, Kai? To fight for Earth?"

"I want things to be done right." Supreme Kai said, kneeling besides the Saiyan Prince. "You care for Trunks, don't you?"

Vegeta smiled as he remembered the first and last hug he had given Trunks. Yes, the small boy made him very proud. "Yes."

"And you love Bulma."

"Hn."

"How did you feel when king Vegeta gave you to Frieza?" he asked softly. Vegeta felt a tired rage and sighed again, pinching the bridge of his nose.

"What are you? Psykailogist?"

Supreme Kai laughed heartedly and patted Vegeta's knee. "You've gained a sense of humor since you came to Earth."

"I've become soft."

"Yes. But Vegeta, Trunks is only eight. He won't understand. It will be bad for him. He needs you." Supreme Kai said.

"He will understand. He's a strong boy."

"It affected you when King Vegeta left you."

"What affected me was that he left me with Frieza. Bulma is not a psychotic lizard that enjoys discovering how loud a child can scream." He muttered.

Supreme Kai looked up at Bulma. "You can't leave her alone."

"She'll manage. She's a strong woman." Vegeta said. He looked up at the sky. "Besides, I am not doing this for me."

"Oh?" Supreme Kai wondered. Vegeta gave him a sideways glance.

"I don't want to be with Bulma or Trunks. All I want is them to be happy, and if they will be okay without me, then so be it. I was not a good husband or father, so they will get over me soon enough. But one thing is for sure: I care for them and I will do anything to…"

"Then stay." Bulma said behind him. He didn't look back at her. She kneeled besides him and took his hand. "Stay with us."

"Why do you want me to stay, woman? You thought I was sane once again. But I have proven you wrong."

"Then we'll try again. I need you here. Trunks needs you. Goku needs you. The Earth needs you. You can't leave us behind."

"Come on, Vegeta. Don't go to Hell." Supreme Kai said.

Bulma leaned on his shoulder and whispered. "Remember that night when you told me you loved me? That same night I said I would spend all my days with you. I told you I would do everything to make you happy."

"And I said I would never hurt you."

"You are hurting me now.

"I said I'd do everything to keep you safe. I'm keeping my promise."

He stood up and took a deep breath.

"Vegeta, think about it. Once you go to Hell, you'll never see Bulma again."

Something within Vegeta seemed to snap and he closed his eyes. Yes, it was true. She'd go to Heaven, and he'd be in hell for ever.

"Please." Bulma said.

"Take care of Trunks."

"Vegeta…" she said, her eyes watering again.

"Maybe I'll convince them of letting me return for a day."

"Vegeta, please!"

Dende gasped and Gohan shot up from his seat.

"What are you doing here?" he said.

Bardock frowned. Yes, he had learned the TI technique along with his son. He looked for his objective around the whole Lookout.

"Speak now or we'll have to…" Piccolo started, but Bardock interrupted him.

"Shut up. I've never done anything to any of you. I just came for the boy."

"No way." Gohan said. Bardock finally saw Trunks and Goten sparring some feet away and began to walk over to them. Gohan appeared before him.

"Out of the way. Why do you hate me anyway?"

"I don't hate you, but I'm not willing to…"

"Isn't the brat stronger than me? Then what are you worrying about?"

Gohan backed down and stared as Bardock walked to the two kids, who stopped fighting.

"Trunks, is it?" he said. Trunks nodded. "Come with me."

"What's gotten into you, Goku?"

"He's not my daddy!" Goten accused.

"No, I'm not Goku. I am his father, Bardock."

"You're my granddaddy!" Goten squealed. Bardock frowned, confused.

"I… guess."

"What do you want from me?" Trunks asked.

"I need you to come and see your father."

"My father? What happened to him? Is he okay?"

"He is okay. He killed Frieza. But you need to come."

Trunks nodded and in a second, the two Saiyans left the Lookout.

King Yemma crossed his arms and shook his head slowly.

"I better send Baba before something else happens."

"But King Yemma…" King kai started.

"Baba!"

The old witch appeared. "What is it now?"

"I need you to take everyone to Hell now. Including Vegeta."

"But Vegeta is alive."

"He wants to go to Hell. Take him."

Vegeta looked into the blue eyes and opened his mouth to speak, but never got the chance since a small squeal made him wince. He turned around to see Trunks running up to him.

"Dad! You killed Frieza!"

Vegeta bit his lip. He was not counting on telling Trunks that he was not going to stay.

"Yes, son."

"Mommy? Why are you crying?"

Bulma's lip quivered and she pinched the bridge of her nose. "It's nothing, sweetie."

"Well, time to go!" Baba said, appearing suddenly.

Vegeta looked up at her and took a deep breath. He looked back at Bulma. "It's time."

"Vegeta, please reconsider. You don't belong there." Supreme Kai insisted. "And even if you do, you still have time."

"What?" Trunks said. "You're leaving, dad?"

Vegeta kneeled before Trunks and put a hand on his shoulder. "Once again, Trunks, take care of your mother. Be good. Never stop training. Don't be like Gohan." He chuckled. "But seriously, you've made me very proud."

Trunks's blue eyes scanned his father's face for any sign of joke, but he was serious.

"Dad… you can't leave us."

"I'm sorry. I have to do it."

"Vegeta." Baba called. Vegeta looked up to see Nappa, Bardock and King Vegeta standing by her side. "Let's go."

"No." Goku said. "Vegeta, listen to me. I made an awful mistake when I left everyone behind just because I thought it would be the best for everyone… But I only made things worse. We need you here."

"I don't have all day!" Baba said. "Are you coming or what?"

"It was because of my fault that Radditz…"

"It was my fault for distracting you."

"You wouldn't have to distract me if I wouldn't have lost control, Bulma."

"Dad, don't leave! You're the strongest guy in the Universe!" Trunks said.

"Vegeta!" Baba said.

"WAIT A SECOND, WOULD YOU?" Bulma and Vegeta screamed. The old lady jumped and grunted in annoyance.

"Vegeta." King Vegeta suddenly spoke up. "Listen very closely because I will not repeat it. Here before you, you have an amazing woman. She is a human with the personality of a Saiyan, and a kid that is the spitting image of you. Our whole race can rest now that you have killed Frieza, and you can rest now that everything is okay. You can't pretend to leave everything behind just because you think that everything around you will be worse with you. You have showed the Earth that you are willing to help even if it is for your own purposes. We failed to protect one planet, now life has given you a second chance. The chance to protect your family. Frieza tore you from everything you knew and destroyed everything you cared for. Now that you can care for someone without worrying, now that you have a home, a wife, a son, friends, and something to fight for other than the purpose of destroying your tormentor, you are willing to leave everything behind? Let me give you a piece of advice, my son. The solution is not to leave what you can hurt, or to leave behind what can be taken from you. No. The solution is to fight for what you care for. Going to Hell is a brave decision, and you've showed that you care for Bulmus…"

"Bulma."

"…More than anything in the world. And for the little boy. But it is even braver to stay with them and fight for them."

Vegeta's eyes widened and he took a deep breath. Bulma grabbed his hand.

"I guess… I guess you're right."

"Then you're staying?" Bulma said.

Vegeta looked at his companions and closed his eyes. "Yes."

Bulma screamed in joy and leapt at him, almost knocking the tired prince off his feet and kissing his face over and over. He grunted in disgust and Trunks also squealed, jumping and knocking him off his feet.

"Ow!" he said as he landed on his butt and his mate and son landed on him. Bulma pressed her lips against his and squeezed his neck in a tight embrace.

"Eww!" Trunks said.

The whole gang laughed, and the two Royal Saiyans smirked.

"Can we go now?" Baba said. "I have specific instructions of taking you back to Hell, but since Yemma said you wanted to go and I see that you've changed your mind, I'm only taking these guys." She turned to look at them and her face turned blue when the three men glared at her.

Vegeta stood up and walked up to his father.

He offered a hand and King Vegeta shook it.

"Take care, my son."

"Take care of our race."

"About your son, Bardock" Baba said. "Since he was not really on a physical plane, he can't die. He can only disappear."

All eyes widened.

"What do you mean?" Bardock said.

"Radditz will be as good as new and back in Hell in a few hours." Baba said.

Bardock laughed and patted Nappa's back. Nappa smiled.

"Take care, Vegeta." He said.

Vegeta nodded and the three Saiyans and the woman shimmered.

"Good bye, my son!" Bardock said. Goku waved a hand and smiled, and the four figures disappeared.

Goku sighed greatly and sat on the floor.

"Damn it! I'm hungry as hell!"

They all laughed and Vegeta felt a small tug on his pant. He looked down and saw Trunks. Smirking, he lifted the small Saiyan and carried him. "I say we go back to Capsule Corp and have a big banquette!"

"YEAH!" Trunks and Goku chimed.

"Unbelievable." King Yemma said, enraged.

"Leave him." King Kai smiled. "His time will come.

"I guess so."

"Up for some food?"

"Sure."

Vegeta was looking out the window. He felt some sort of relief.

Yes, the lizard was gone for good. Now he had truly started a new life. Now that everything was alright, maybe he could give himself a chance to forget. To forget those dark days, to forget the raspy awful voice whispering in his ear: "You will always be mine, monkey."

"Vegeta?" Bulma said. He turned around. "Come here. Aren't you hungry?"

He smirked. Maybe now that no one could take the people away from him, he could allow himself friends. "Yes."

He finished eating and went to walk outside. He flew above the house and sat on the ceiling.

"I am not yours." He said.

Frieza smiled and threw him to the floor. He crawled on top of him and dug his fingers into his flesh. Vegeta whimpered. He began to roam his fingers around Vegeta's body, tearing his flesh mercilessly. Vegeta gasped and tried not to scream as the stinging pain engulfed him. The claws left huge gashes behind and Vegeta's body began to quiver in agony, and then, suddenly, Frieza bit his ear.

Vegeta screamed and thrashed as the lizard ripped his ear off, still tearing his flesh with his claws. He flipped him onto his stomach and did the same thing, not touching the tail yet. He twisted his arm behind his back until it snapped and did the same with the other. Vegeta yelped.

"Care to repeat it?" he muttered, with the ear in his mouth and his claws roaming through his body.

"I… am… not… yours!"

Frieza chuckled and wrapped his tail around Vegeta's legs, squeezing them. Vegeta screamed as he felt his bones grinding. His throat screamed in agony as his legs broke in half and Frieza continued squeezing, sending the bone through the skin.

The horrible pain sent waves of convulsions through the mangled body and Frieza bit his cheek, tearing it.

"Well?"

"N-no."

Frieza finally took the Saiyan's breaking point and dug his nails into the top of the appendage. Vegeta whimpered but clamped back any scream. Then, he began to separate the tail in two. The muscles and tissue ripped apart and the bones either broke in half or chose one direction. Vegeta screamed and cried his eyes off but Frieza didn't stop.

The pain was horrendous. He couldn't believe it… he couldn't understand how someone could feel so much agony. It was just not right. It was impossible. He began to beg without even knowing. The single cliché became a single word.

"Stop, please! Stopplease! Stoppleasestopplease!" he screamed.

Frieza finally released the two halves of the tail and laughed as Vegeta's lips didn't stop. He mouthed the words but didn't seem to have enough energy to speak. "Ready to accept your faith?"

Vegeta swallowed but didn't say anything. Frieza grabbed his shoulder and dislocated it, and then the other one. He flipped him onto his back and wrapped his hands around the narrow throat.

He squeezed and Vegeta gasped for air, mouthing like a fish and trying to squirm out of the grasp, but he couldn't move. Frieza felt a few little pops inside the throat and chuckled when blood oozed out of Vegeta's lips.

Frieza lifted him slightly and slammed him against the floor until blood also pooled below his head. He leaned besides Vegeta's ear and whispered: "You will always be mine, Vegeta. Always." And with this, he bit the other ear off.

Vegeta took a deep breath and shook his head.

"No, Frieza. You are wrong." He muttered. "You are wrong."

He flew back to the ground and into the compound. Bulma was joking with the pig when she saw him. She walked over to him and handed him a martini. He sipped and looked at her.

"Cheers." He said.

"For defeating Frieza?"

"For my freedom." He muttered.

She giggled. "Now I am your new master."

He chuckled. "Master is a horrible word, Bulma. Remember why I don't call Roshi Master Roshi?"

She giggled again when she remembered the first time she had introduced him to Master Roshi. "Is he really that strong?" he had asked her.

She wasn't sure if it was fear what she had seen in his eyes, but she chuckled and shook her head. "No, but he is Goku's master."

"How comes?" he had asked.

"He taught him everything he knows. That's what a master does."

He had frowned. "I will not acknowledge anyone else as Master."

Vegeta snapped her out of her memory with a kiss. "You are my mate." He muttered into her ear.

Well, what can I say?

Back To Hell was a great experience. When I began to write it I sincerely didn't think it would go on so fluently. Not to mention, it was my first attempt at a Fanfic :D

Well, I'm going to be honest. It all started with this little whim of mine of having Vegeta taking revenge on Frieza. It slowly complimented with Crushing Innocence although CI ended up earlier! Lol. Really, I ranted a lot in here. I think Frieza is the best villain, but villain nonetheless and I LOVE Vegeta with my soul, so I figured he should have his attempt at Revenge as well!

I tried so hard to keep them all in character, especially when they spoke. Frieza with his elegant, sarcastic words, Vegeta with his elegant rude sentences, Goku childish ones, etc. I believe I improved quiet a lot and this is all thanks to you guys. You really made me happy. Reading the reviews was quite flattering and I know I wasn't a fast uploader and perhaps you were waiting for a better ending, but I have one thing clear: I was not going to make a crappy fanfic just to make it long.

I have to say I enjoyed writing this fic quiet a lot and I laughed a lot with all your reviews. Some of you are quiet crazy (I'm looking at you Ninjat!), and others helped a lot with the improvement of my writing style. Thank you all for being amazing readers, reviewers, and for giving life to this story!

At first it was going to be an insight of Vegeta's moments in Hell. I always wondered what it would be like to meet again with the villains that tormented him. but then it all went on. Frieza attacking, Vegeta defending himself, Yemma hating on Vegeta, and so on. Well, I suppose this is all

THANKS A LOT ONCE AGAIN, I hope to see you in A Lifetime Turmoil and CI's sequel! (...which I have not started yet :D)

Vegeta? Anything to say?

Vegeta: Hn. So long, suckers.

ME: VEGETAAA!
