Chapter 3
A Woman's Role
A huge ship appeared as if out of no were. The four space pods landed in the docking bay. Raddiz and the others stood waiting for Vegeta's command. "You guys go ahead I'll take care of her" he said Sotika watched as her brother and the others disappeared around the corner.

"Why aren't we going with them?" Sotika asked Vegeta said didn't answer. He walked down the hall way and motioned for Sotika to folllow. Sudenly he spoke "Frezza detroied an entire planet and every one of it's enhabitance. With the exception of four men, at least to his knowldge. This means his goal will be acheaved and the Saiyjin race will disappear completly. How ever if there's a women...." A moment passed and suddenly Sotika understood.

The others were no threat to Frezza. His power level far surpassed theirs. And eventualy they would die. But she was diffrent. if she had children the Saiyjin race would live for another generation. So Frezza would surely kill her.

"Now we're going to have to hide you." Vegeta continued "Slip your tail under your shirt, don't let any one know that your a Saiyjin." So were are you hiding me?" Sotika asked impaitiently "In the servants quarters" he said "You want me to be a slave!" she exclaimed She stped walking and folded her arms in protest. Vegeta also stoped "Not really." he said "just ... pretend" "Stop that" Sotika said lowering her voice "What?" Vegeta was rather confused "Your treating me like a little kid." she said Vegeta smiled "Sorry ... you are fifteen years younger then me though."

Vegeta saw her to the end of the hall. "We'll be back in two days" he told her Sotika stood out side of the door a minuet, then desided to walk in. There were roughly 60 girls in this dimmly lit room (I know what your thinking .... pervert this is a PG rated fan fic so stop thinking like that!) and the room was insufficent size for the number. Sotika plopped herself down in the corner. It was gonna be a long day. Hours passed, slowly, we're talking math class slow. Sotika let her thoughts wander once again, victory would be sweet. And then Raddiz would pay.

She'd managed to sleep most of the day, but now night had set in and she was tired of sleeping. Every thing in the entire ship seemed to be sleeping, but her. She paced by the window. "Stop that your making me nervouce" some one whispered Sotika whiped around into fighting stance. "Who's there?!" she demanded "Calm down!" a girl said walking toward her "Why aren't you asleep?" "I don't know" Sotika said

Soitka got a better look at her. She was blue ... literaly, and her hair was long and dark green. She was very pretty, but she had a bloody nose. "What happened?" Sotika asked "A friend of mine named Zarbon." she said "He amusses himself by beating me. Don't worry I'm alright." "So what's your name?" Sotika asked "Riaka" she replied "and you?" "Oh, I'm Sotika"


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sotika and Riaka continued until day break, talking about their pasts and their hopes for the future. Once the others awoke the fun ended. A rather old women got up at the front of the room and started yelling in a launguage Sotika didn't understand. "What's going on?" she asked Raika "She's asigning jobs. You and I have kitchens 1 ,5 , & 9." she replied "Do you do this every day?" she asked "Of course ... We're women." Raika said

Sotika entered the first kitchen. The mess was srewn alover the place. Her jaw hit the floor. "And I thought Raddiz was unresonable" she said under her breath

Work progressed very slowly as they moved into the next kitchen. Suddenly the door opened. Sotika turned around to see a tall, blue, handsom man with green hair. "Riaka you hvae a friend to day." he said "Leave her alone Zarbon!" Riaka insisted "Calm down my dear, I was only wondering if you were going to introduce me." Zarbon began circling Sotika "I can speak for myself!" Sotika piped in "My name is Sotika."

Zarbon's scouter began to beep. His jaw dropped. "Well Riaka you have qite a powerful little friend here, for a women." he said Now he'd crossed the line. "And what does that meen!" Sotika demanded "Temper temper" he said shaking his head "Now will you be here from now on?" "No I'm leaving today with Prince Vegeta." Sotika informed him "I'm sorry" he said

The work progressed even slower with Zarbon hovering over them. "You know Sotika you don't have to leave with Vegeta, you could stay here with me." Zarbon said "I'll think about it." Sotika replied uddenly Sotika dropped to the floor and cried out in pain. "Sotika what's wrong?!!!" Riaka shouted "I thought about it" Sotika groaned

Sotika and Riaka exploaded in laughter. Zarbon however was not pleased. "Shut up!" he roared He slapped Riaka then turned to Sotika. "I'll teach you to show some respect!" he reached his hand in the air and powered a blast.

"May I help you Zarbon?" Vegeta asked from the door way Sotika pulled herself off the floor ans walked over to him. "Your late" she whispered "Realy I thought my timing was great." he said smiling They loaded into the space pods and blasted away. Sotika watched the ship grow smaller and smaller, and wondered what would happen to Riaka. but for now she was just glad to be out of there
