Chapter One - Lost Home

Damn, I'm late.

A beeping on her ships control console awoke her. She groaned as she opened her eyes looking out the view port of her pod.

Mizuna, currently on route back to Planet Vegeta after an urgent message from Lord Freeza, urging all the Saiyans off-planet to return home for no reason in particular. I wonder why we were all recalled like this, nothing he couldn't just tell us over our scouters? She silently mused.

Mizuna was a young Saiyan, only 7 years old, but they started fighting and conquering planets essentially from birth. She was just like most others of her people, almost all of her kind had black hair, and eyes to match. She has lighter brown hair and blue eyes. A genetic defect it had been called at birth, but she never minded much. She had long hair that reached her shoulder blades.

She should've been home a half hour ago, but the last mission wiped out her team and she had to drag herself back to their ship. She had been successful, but only barely. She was mostly healed now, but it slowed her down getting back.

The mission hadn't gone well, to say the very least. She and three others had to assigned to conquer an alien world, while she was the youngest she was also the strongest. Soon after landing, the planets inhabitants had descended on them. Skilled fighters the lot of them, they took apart the weaker two Saiyans, and only Mizuna and her older companion had managed to fight them back. He had also died after only a few hours.

Then she was alone. Mizuna had snapped. She didn't remember exactly how or why it happened only that her power how skyrocketed. It had felt like becoming a great ape, but she hadn't transformed, she had retained the power in her regular state. The people of that world hadn't last much longer afterwards, but her wounds had been pretty severe regardless and she had wanted to come home.

The only thing she could see in the black void of space was Planet Vegeta and a single ship. Freezas ship? She was only a few minutes away from landing and closing in fast as something caught her eye. Someone flying away from the planet, towards Freezas ship.

Looks like a Saiyan from here, but I can't tell. Followed by massive ball of energy originating from above the lone ship, and launching towards the planets surface. With zero significant opposition in it's path, it drilled into the planet and exploded. Her scouter had clicked on and she watched the number go down as the millions of Saiyans on the planet were wiped out. Everyone she had ever known was gone, in that brief instant.

"No!" She screamed in rage and despair as the shock wave caused by the detonation hit her ship and knocked it off course in a random direction, the energy that hit her ship played havoc with the controls, shorting them out and caused an alarm to sound.

The last thing she saw in the distance as she uncontrollably moved away from the asteroid field that used to be her home world, was Freeza laughing.

She'd managed to regain control of her pod after awhile, but she had no idea where she going now. Where else was there to go? She had no home now, but one thing was painfully clear to her. She'd grow stronger for the sole purpose of killing Freeza, as well as the rest of the frost demons. They were all monsters, and she'd bring an end to their tyrannical rule.
