Well, now that my papers are all done, I can finally get back to
writing fiction. Hopefully, chapters will get longer, and they will come
out a little faster. Ummm…I am starting a side story about Rei and Nappa,
since no one likes that couple. Hopefully, it will explain how they became
what they are in this story. However, it will take a little while to get
out because it will only be one part, but it will be quite a bit longer
than what I have been doing on this story. I also want to work only my
other story, but not as many people seem to want to read it. I guess I
will leave you with that to think about, and I'm sorry if I make Minako
seem like a ditz in this chapter.

1 Chapter Five
Makoto and Ami arrived at Rei's room shortly and didn't bother to knock before entering. There wasn't really any reason to, since Rei was stuck in bed and Minako and Usagi didn't usually do anything too terrifying. Well, take that back, they could be terrifying, but only when boys were the topic of conversation. That was rarely the case, seeing as Rei wasn't really all that fond of her mate, and Raditz was no fun to talk about, and none of the girls really had any other love interests.
As soon as that thought entered her mind, Makoto was a bit afraid of taking Ami in that room. The second the girls knew about her and Vegeta, there would be mass pandemonium and that was the last thing Makoto needed. Rei wouldn't be too happy about Ami's story, and would probably attempt to go beat the crap out of her brother. She'd lose, of course, and then Nappa would beat the crap out of Makoto for letting Rei out of bed. She wasn't exactly in the right mood for attempting to piss off Nappa. Actually, she was never in the mood, and never would be, since when Nappa got angry, Nappa got angry.
"It's about frickin time." Rei muttered as soon as the girls entered her room. Makoto wasn't aware that they'd been gone for very long, but Rei was impatient at the moment, so she ignored her.
"Yeah, what took so long?" Usagi asked. "What's wrong, Ami?" Apparently, she was the first to notice Ami's tear-stained face.
"I don't know…Everything is turning upside-down." Ami collapsed into a chair and buried her head in her hands. "One week, I'm a slave in the science department who doesn't know what race she is, and the next week I have this." She pointed to her neck, where the bite mark was still as clear as it was when she'd first gotten it.
"Ami, a bite mark is not something to cry about! Gods, it's a good thing. Now, Vegeta has to take care of you, and he'll love you at some point, even if he doesn't want to…" Minako started.
"He didn't want me. I don't know what he was doing, but he didn't want me." Tears welled in Ami's eyes again. "I went for a walk last night because I couldn't sleep. He was in the hallway kissing some other girl…"
"He WHAT?" Rei shouted, a growl escaping her throat. "The little bastard…" She threw off the sheets and attempted to pull herself out of bed.
"Oh no you don't." Makoto commanded, shoving her back into bed. In a test of strength, Makoto was probably just a bit stronger than Rei, due to her 'dual bloodline.' (AN: From Anne Bishop's book 'Heir to the Shadows,' quote by Geoffrey, one of the best characters. If you're in to magic and stuff, read it, but read the first book in the series, Daughter of the Blood)
"GET OFF OF ME, DAMNIT!" Rei shouted, a surge of ki erupting from her body and blowing Makoto into the opposite wall. Makoto normally would have blocked it, but she wasn't expecting Rei to be this pissed.
Rei was out of the room before Makoto could stand. The other girls helped her off the floor, save for Ami, who was staring in disbelief at the door her now sister-in-law had just stormed out of. Rei had a temper, sure, but she didn't usually blow up like this, especially when it didn't involve Nappa. Makoto almost felt sorry for him sometimes, but then remembered why Rei was yelling at him and changed her mind.
"Well, she took that pretty well." Minako commented. The other girls glared at her. "I was just kidding." She growled.
"Uh huh, sure." Usagi nodded, crossing her arms over her chest.
* * *
Despite the uncomfortable silence echoing through the room, Vegeta was as cocky as ever. He was leaning against the wall, his arms crossed, a typical smirk plastered on his face. This stupid woman had no idea what she was getting herself into.
She'd insisted on a meeting with King Vegeta. He wouldn't have allowed it, had she not been friends with Queen Serenity. Even then, due to her charges, he'd been reluctant. She thought he'd stolen her daughter away from her as an infant and turned her into a slave or some other crap.
Vegeta was only half paying attention. He was too busy congratulating himself in his head about his victory over Dai. She'd fallen into his plan so easily. She really believed he'd rather have a slave for a mate than her. In part, it was true, although the thought of being with a slave disgusted him. Even if she had been pretty with that exotic coloring and those…He mentally smacked himself. Slaves were the last things he needed to be thinking about.
"Vegeta, are you listening?" His father demanded. "On day, you're going to be king, hopefully, and if you don't know what you're doing, this whole kingdom could be destroyed."
"I know father. But some little whining bitch-queen complaining about us stealing her daughter is hardly empire-threatening. We only take slaves from planets we conquer. We haven't conquered Mercury-sei, since it still obviously exists, so we wouldn't have any slaves from that planet. Maybe you should go whine to Frieza, he tends to take slaves from places he doesn't belong." Vegeta smirked at the queen, who looked quite distressed at his blatant show of distaste.
"I can assure you that Frieza and his men never once visited any part of the Silver Alliance. However, there have been numerous visits to its many planets by Saiya-jin officials, and I wouldn't put it past such a barbaric race to kidnap Ami." The queen of Mercury hissed. Vegeta was suddenly caught in a fit of coughing.
Ami? Wasn't that the name of that stupid slave-girl he'd used to piss off Dai? And…didn't she have the same coloring as this bitch-queen? No, it wasn't possible. Saiya-jins were not barbaric, contrary to this woman's claims, and they would not have taken a princess as a slave. They'd have killed her before making her a slave, or simply held her for ransom.
His thoughts were interrupted by a very pissed-off looking Rei slamming her way into the room. She was clad only in a nightgown and robe. Her hair was not brushed, and she wore no make-up.
"What are you doing out of bed?" Nappa shouted, glaring at his mate.
"I'll go back to bed once I beat the shit out of my brother." Rei growled, glaring back in a way that made even Nappa cower.
"What the hell is your problem?" Vegeta asked, no anger apparent in his voice, despite the somewhat annoyed look on his face.
"You being a bastard to my maid, that's what's my problem!" Rei replied, a dark edge to her voice that indicated just how angry she was.
"What? She's just a slave…"
"That's how you're going to think about her? That's just fine and dandy, Vegeta. Ami's not just a slave, she's your mate, and if I ever see you do anything at all to hurt her again, I will not hesitate to kill you." And with that, she stormed back out of the room, leaving a very bewildered Vegeta staring after her.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -----------------------
Hehehe…Veggie got a tongue-lashing. I'm sorry that it took a while to get this part out, but I was at my grandmas house. But it is a bit longer than the others. Reviews are always welcome. ^_^
