Chapter 9
The Wish
"Where do you think Freeza is?" Sotika asked Vegeta "on his way no doubt, we'd better get ready" he replied The two of the m rose into the air. "Let's go you two, and bring Kakerott" Vegeta instructed As Sotika lowered herself into Freeza's ship she heard Kakerott say "just trust Vegeta." One thing was for sure this guy wasn't very bright.
Once inside Kakerott was put into an isolation tank, to help him heal. The two short people had went with Vegeta to get themselves some armor. Sotika staied with Kakerott and made sure al the settings were correct. "The bald guy lfet and the half-Saiyjin is gaurding the dragon balls" Vegeta said as he walked in the room and stopped at her side "Thank you for helping Kakerott" she said softly "Well I need his help to fight freeza, then it'll be his turn" he smirked Sotika shook her head, it was nice to see somethings never changed.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Vegeta had gone to take a nap. Sotika expected this was a good idea, he didn't look like he had slep since he got to Namek. Sotika just looked at him, remebering the last time they were together. It had been too long, she was still having trouble imaging Nappa dieing at the hands of Vegeta. They were the only ones left now.
Sotika turned to look out the window. The sky was black and there was a blot of lightening in the sky. She hadn't even noticed the hours had passed. Suddenly Sotika remebered that Namek had 3 suns and it was never dark. Then there was a flash of light and a monstrouce green lizard apeared in the sky.
"The Dragon" Sotika almost screamed as she violently shook Vegeta awake. "Tika, what's wrong with you." he asked sleepily "Kakerott's friends, they got the dragon up, look!" she pointed to the window."Holy cosmos look at that thing!" Vegeta shouted as he ran out the door. "Those little migits are going to pay dearly for this one!"
Vegeta blasted off toward the dragon and Sotika followed. When they arrived all seven balls were aranged in a neat circle. Gohan, Krilen and a small Namek were standing near by. "you wouldn't be calling the dragon with out me?" Vegeta asked startedling all of them Sotika walked over to Gohan, and put her hands on her hips. "now what kinda saiyjin double crosses the Prince?" she asked him, raiseing her hand to attack "But there's one wish left!" he criend squinting for the on coming attack.
"Then it's ot too late!?" Vegeta had heard Gohan's plea Krillen looked suddenly sick "yea" Gohan vontinued "You get 3 wishs with these dragon balls, we only made two." Vegeta grabbed the Namek boy by the collar "Tell him to make me imortal!" The boy refused and Vegeta trew him down in anger and powered an energy ball. "Do it boy! Or so help me ... " "Leave him alone Vegeta!" Krillen bellowed Sotika felt it was time to put her foot down.
"NOW LISTEN TO ME!!!!!" she roared, very one was now silent "Thank you, now Vegeta let's not go blowing up the Namek boy. If you do that how is any one gonna get the last wish. And as for you three, we are all here to defeat Freeza. Just a reminder but he is an infinatly powerful mad man, who won't hesitate to kill all of us. Now Vegeta is easily the strongest one here. if any of you disagree feel free to prove me worng right now." no one moved Sotika smiled "That's what I thought. Now if we are all working toward the same end here, perhaps it wouldn't seem like a bad idea to let Vegeta be imortal. If he does this then there is no way Freeza can win."
"She's right" Krillen said begruding "make the wish" the boy shot a terrified look in Vegeta's direction and then turned to the dragon. He shouted something in Namek. The dragon's eys began to glow and smoke poured out of hie body. The dragon balls rose into the air and turned to stones, that laned on the ground with a heavy thud. Then the dragon disappeared from the sky.
Dende dropped to his knees "Guru" he said tears running down his face "Guru is dead." "So my wish wasn't granted!" Vegeta roared he clentched his jaw and rounded on the others "So where were we, oh yes Tika and I were just about too..." Vegeta was looking at something. The little Namek boy fell backward at the sight of it. Sotika turned to see just as a feminine voise said "So you're the ones. You stole my Dragon balls and finished off my ginyu force. So which one of you would like to die first."
"I will not be dieing, not at your hands!" Vegeta replied "Ah yes, Prince Vegeta, I always knew you would turn on me. But i never expected you to get this far." Freeza smiled "Enough talk already!" Vegeta cried "Have it your way" Freeza laughed He began throwin gounches at vegeta, but he caught all of them. Then Veegta spun asround and kicked him in the face. "Well, you are much stronger then your father." Freeza smirked bitterly
Sotika looked around for the earthlings only to find they were hiding behind a rock. "I thought you two were warriors!" she shouted "We are." answered Gohan timidly "Then let's attack together while his back is turned!" she cried So the three of them formed aline and shot engery blasts at Freeza. But he saw the attack coming and left his truggle with Vegeta to fire at them.
Sotika went flying into a mountain. She got to her feet shaking. her head was pounding with pain, and blood ran down the side of her face, but she was far from finished. "You are no match for me like this Freeza!" Vegeta taunted "Whay don't you transform?" Freeza looked both surprised and thrilled at this. "Oh, so you know my secret. Very well but let me assure you any chances you had of winning a now gone."
Sotika watched a Freeza grew in an uncany amount of time. His horns grew longer and curled up like a bull's. He now towered over every one ther. His mucels buldged until his armor broke off his body. Sotika then remebered what Meoke had told Nappa. How this was what Freeza realy was. This was the evil killer that had taken Meoke's parents and her's. Freeza finished his horrible transformation with an evil smile on his face.
Sotika was already powering up. She flew toward him so fast she barely relised she'd left the ground. She head butted him in the stomache. "That was for Meoke!" She punched him in the right eye "That was for my father!!" Finally she grabbed his wrists, put her knee up and pulled him in "And that was for me!!!" Freeza fell back, looking very angry. He looked up at Sotika "Yet another Saiyjin I have over looked." he laughed "Well won't worry my dear this won't hurt for long!"
Sotika flew higher into the air, but freeza was too fast. He appeared infront of her, and before she could react his elbow had connected with her sholder. She was falling to the ground. Vegeta flew up just in time, caught her, and set her gentaly on the ground. "Leave her out of this Freeza!" he demanded Freeza landed on the ground next him. "My my Vegeta, we seem to have a bit of a soft spot for the girl. How cute." Vegeta kicked Freeza, but he caught his leg and flipped him head over heals on the ground. "Poor Prince" he laughed as he drop kicked him into a mountian. Sotika struggled to her feet and over tp his side.
"Vegeta?" she said softly "Tika we're not gonna get outta this one." he said trying to catch his breath "Don't talk like that." she pleaded "No listen!" he yelled "you have got to get out of here now!" Sotika laughed "I'm not going to leave you." But Vegeta's face was still stern "Yes you are." Sotika looked at him, he was for real, her eyes began to fill with tears. "I'm sorry Tika, but I don't ... I ... I don't want to loose you." he said brushing a lock of hair behind her ear Sotika stood there in shock "but Vegeta" it was all she could say Vegeta kissed her cheek "My ship is a few miles that way" he said motioning to the left Sotika shook her head and walked to the edge of the water. She looked back at Vegeta one last time before diving into the water.
