I think that some of you people are confused on the fact that Vegeta-sei is still there but Vegeta is one of the last Saiyans
anyway. The fact is, he is one of the last Saiyans because many died in battle and he's the last ROYAL Saiyan. The
other people on the planet who aren't Saiyans are kind of like immigrants. I'm sorry, I should have explained it sooner
in the story and not the author notes. Oops. ^_^;*
But, to break the silence and to get on with the story, I don't own SM or DBZ.
*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*
Usagi awoke at the warmth of sunshine on her bare back.
'It's too early to wake up,' she thought groggily and nestled her face deeper into the pillow. It smelled like... Vegeta.
She smiled and breathed deep. The previous day's events came rushing over her and she sighed, content.
She turned over to look for Vegeta and frowned when she realized he wasn't with her. She sat up and got dressed. He
had provided a plain white day dress for her that went to mid calf and had short sleeves that only covered her shoulders and
left her arms bare.
As she sat in the bathroom finishing her hair she heard the door click open and shut. She smiled and went into the
bedroom, intending to see Vegeta but it was one of the maids who worked in the castle.
"Lady, would you please follow me? The Prince would like to see you," she said, her voice ringing through the room.
Usagi's smile widened. "Of course."
She followed the young girl through the maze of the palace's corriders. Finally they came to a large open room and
Usagi could see the movement of people inside. Stained glass windows lined the walls.
She looked around the room and she finally spotted Vegeta leaning over a table covered with papers. He looked up and
spotted. He smiled and came towards her.
"Usa, I'm sorry I left today without telling you but I didn't want to wake you," he explained.
"It's all right, Vegeta. But what's going on?" she asked. She peered over his shoulder and tried to read some of the
documents he was reading over before she came in.
He sighed and turned towards the table again, her hand in his.
"I have some bad news. A man named Freiza has learned about a planet named Namek and has also found out that there
are Dragonballs there. I have to go there and try to stop him."
"Then I'll go with you-"
"No. This is more than you can handle, Usagi. I don't want you getting hurt!"
"Vegeta, I can take care of myself! You wouldn't have to worry about me," she told him.
"Usagi, do you remember last night? What if you're expecting and you go there and fight? I won't let you do that! It's
too important that if you are going to have our child and something happens to me there's still hope for our kingdom."
She was about to argue some more but knew it would be useless. Once he decided on doing something he wouldn't
budge. She just turned away from him and stormed out.
But she didn't go back to their room. She went to the space room.
She opened the door and walked inside. Technicians were already preparing Vegeta's pod and didn't notice her. She
felt inside her pocket and felt her brooch. That was all she would need.
"Excuse me. I'm Princess Usagi and I have orders from Prince Vegeta to head for Namek. He will follow in a few days."
"But we haven't got a pod ready for you-" said a startled assistant.
"Oh, don't worry. I will only be there a few days before the prince arrives. He can bring the neccesary supplies then. It's
urgent that I leave now. Just put in the destination for Namek and don't disturb the prince. He's extremely busy preparing
for his departure."
The assistant nodded and went to do as he was told. Usagi frowned, hoping Vegeta wouldn't punish the boy for being
tricked by her.
In a few moments the pod was ready and she got in, bracing herself for the launch. It felt like a free fall and she dug her
nails into the soft cushioning and closed her eyes. The pod filled with gas which she was very familiar with by now and she
relaxed.
'This is right. I love Vegeta too much to let him do this. I'll destroy Freiza before he ever gets to Namek,' she thought to
herself as her eyes drifted shut and she fell into a deep sleep.
*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*
"Lord Vegeta, it will be a few days longer than expected before we are finished preparing your pod for your journey," said
an old space coordinater thatplanned all of Vegeta's space trips.
Vegeta frowned and crossed his arms over his chest. "And why isn't it ready?" he asked.
"We are still making the preperations needed for the trip, your majesty," said the technician, bowing before his prince. "We
did not know that you would send the mistress before you and then send the supplies for you both in your pod."
Vegeta's frown deepend and he uncrossed his arms and stiffened. "Usagi has left?"
"Yes. You did not know? She said that you were busy and were not to be disturbed because of some important issues.
She was to go to Namek and wait for you to arrive."
"I didn't. Is there any way that you can turn the ship around and bring her back?!" Vegeta was getting worried and he
was using his anger to mask it. He growled as he thought of what he would do to her when he got a hold of her. "Forget
the supplies, get me a pod ready NOW!" he ordered and left the room.
Vegeta went straight to the throne room and looked for his adviser.
"Artemis, I need you to do somethings for me while I am gone. The princess has just made off to Namek no doubt to face
Freiza herself and I need go after her. Meanwhile, you are going to plan a party.''
"A party? Just a regular party, Vegeta?" asked Artemis. Vegeta smirked as he heard the sound in Artemis's voice. His
adviser knew exactly what was going on.
"Do I ever plan just regular parties, Artemis, without a VERY important purpose? Of course I don't! It's a wedding! A
celebration of me actually finding someone for myself and not taking my anger out on you or the people any more!"
"It will be a REMARKABLE celebration indeed, sire. Now, what of the bride? Shouldn't you go after her?''
"I'm right on it, dear friend," said Vegeta as he walked back to the space room. But he stopped and turned his head to
look over his shoulder. "And design a pair of matching throwns and crowns, got it?" Artemis nodded and Vegeta resumed his
trip.
*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*@*
"We will arrive on Namek in thirty seconds. Please prepare for landing."
Usagi opened her eyes and looked out the window. She saw a planet that looked remarkably like her planet Earth. She
frowned and closed her eyes again.
'Oh Vegeta, please let me do this. I can't let you get hurt.' She sighed as she thought of her love. A sudden jolt brought
her to full attention and she sat straight up. Then she realized that she must have entered the atmosphere. She braced
herself in her seat and braced for the landing.
It was nothing like the soft landing they had on Vegeta-sei. Oh no, this was earth shaking. She sat still, thinking she was
dead. But as she heard the hiss and clunk of falling dirt and rocks she opened her eyes and let out a breath she didn't
realize she was holding in.
"We have landed on Namek," came the cold voice. The door opened and she looked out.
As she observed from space, this planet was very much like Earth. The only differences were the sky, which was green,
and the multiple suns in the sky.
But then she noticed something else. Kis. Three of them. Two were very powerful and the third was... undescribable.
Two others also caught her attention and she became fully alert, tracking them. They were very close and headed
straight towards her. But they were somehow familiar... somehow...
Her eyes widened in realization.
"Krillin! Gohan!" she laughed and climbed out of the crater, following their powers.
She thought of tranforming but decided against it. Too much power would be given off and she didn't want to be found.
Yet.
There was a cliff and she went to the very edge. She scanned the landscape and saw what she was looking for.
She smilied and whistled. The two flying spots stopped and appeared to be looking at her. She laughed and began waving
her arms in the air, rising her ki just a bit so they would recognize her.
They must have because they began to rocket towards her.
"USAGI!!" came a familiar voice.
"Krillin! Gohan!" she called and they landed right in front of her. Krillin only came to her chest and she smiled and set a
hand on the tops of both their heads. "What are you guys doing here?"
"We came for the Dragonballs so we can wish Goku and the others back! Since Piccolo was killed, the Dragonballs
disappeared and this was the only place there were any," explained Krillin.
Usagi frowned. "You shouldn't have come here. It's too dangerous," she said. But her face brightened and she added, "But
it's good to see you guys!"
"Usagi, you seem different," said Gohan. "What did you do?"
Usagi flushed. She didn't want to tell them about herself and Vegeta. Not right now.
"Oh, it's nothi-" She cut herself short as she snapped her head up, looking into the sky. There was an object just coming
through the atmosphere and was going to land near their position. A huge energy was being emmitted from the space craft.
"Vegeta," was all she could say. "We have to get out of here now! That's Vegeta's pod and I just can't face him right
now," she said and ushered the two to the edge of the cliff. Then she remembered she couldn't fly like this and she didn't
want to tranform because it would be harder to mask her energy that way.
"I'm sorry to tell you guys this but you'll have to carry me," she said nervously. "I know he'll have a scouter with him and
he'll be looking for me."
"We can handle it," Gohan said confidently and him and Krillin locked their arms under hers and floated down the cliff face.
They set her down on her feet and they began to run.
"Usa," gasped Krillin as they ran, "what did he do to you to make you so scared of him?"
"I'm not afraid of him. I know he might throttle me if he finds me but not too bad," she laughed. ''I came here to save him!"
"Save him?!"
"Yup. I love him."
Krillin frove in his tracks and Usagi grabbed him and dragged him behind her. The pod impacted with the ground behind
them and they nearly stumbled with the force of it.
"That mountain! We can hide there till he leaves but we have to lower our power levels to nearly zilche to get out of this!"
she said. The two obeyed and they ducked behind the huge rock structure.
Vegeta had just come out of the pod and was most likely scanning the area for her. She tried to sense her companions' kis
and could barely find them if they weren't right next to her. She smiled.
Gohan looked genuinely frightened and she put and arm around him.
"It's all right. If he does find us, he won't hurt us. He really is a kind man, just not a kind past." She stood up and
motioned to Krillin and Gohan to stay down. She walked around the side and looked toward the site of Vegeta's landing.
Sure enough, there he was, floating in the air and his scouter beeping. Apparently it was picking up the three other powers
and hadn't picked them up yet.
'But it will,' she thought and chewed her bottom lip between her teeth. He knew she could lower her power level greatly
and would most likely investigate. They had to leave. Now.
She turned back to Krillin and Gohan and motioned for them to follow. "No flying," she wispered, knowing Vegeta would
pick it up. She began to run towards a forest that wasn't far from where they stood and told Krillin and Gohan to go inside.
She paused and looked back.
"Usagi?" asked Krillin.
"Huh?" She snapped back to reality.
"Why don't you want him to find you if you love him?"
"He'll send me back to Vegeta-sei and make me wait for news of his death, that's why. He's too proud to have a woman
fight his battles but this is the only option open right now," she told him, then added softly, "and I don't want to have his
child without him with me."
"WHAT?!" both of the warriors exclaimed.
"You're going to have a BABY?!" This came from Krillin.
"I'm not totally sure but I think I might." She was completely calm and composed about this.
"You mean you... and him... YOU-?"
"That's how you make a baby, Gohan. But just don't tell your mom I told you that," she joked.
"Usagi, you came here to FIGHT when you could be carrying a CHILD?!"
"Yes, Krillin. But please don't lecture me. I already got it from Vegeta and I don't need it from you too!" She put her
hands on her hips. "I thought you'd be happy for me, Krillin. I'm going to have a family and I want you to be one of the
godparents! What do you say, Uncle Krillin?"
Krillin just stood there, mouth hitting the ground. Usagi cringed and turned to Gohan.
"And you'll be a cousin, Gohan. Your father is my adopted brother and your his son so that makes you family," she said.
Gohan brightened at this and proudly accepted his new role as cousin to royalty. Thank Kami he wasn't completely like
Goku. He'd be OVERLY excited about it.
She turned back and yelped when she saw that Vegeta wasn't where he was when she turned away. She still felt his ki
and it felt... closer.
"Krillin, snap out of it! He's close and we have to get out of here! Quickly now, into the forest!"
They ran and came to a lake. There were a few islands there and she pointed to one. The two understood and picked her
up, flying over the blue water and landing on the island. A small cave was there and she pushed her friends inside.
Just as she did, she heard a voice. An angry voice. She tasted the metallic taste of fear in her mouth when she heard the
ferocity in Vegeta's tone. He still hadn't located them but would soon and the more he had to look the worst his wrath
would be and worst still for the people who had to weather it.
She prayed for those who would.
"Let's get going. I don't want oyu guys to see him when he's angry. But keep your kis DOWN! I don't know exactly how
his scouter works but I'm just not up to seeing how it does," she wispered and urged them through the forest. "Are you
guys the only ones here?"
"No. Bulma is with us but we left her back at the spaceship so she didn't get into any trouble," said Gohan. Usagi nooded.
She understood how Bulma was.
They walked a while and lost track of time. Usagi paused and sighed, arching her back and stretching her arms to the sky,
yawning. She rubbed her back when she felt it pop.
"Usagi, are you all right? It's not the baby, is it? We can stop if you-" Krillin was ranting till Usagi quieted him with two
words.
"Shut up." But she was smiling as she scolded him playfully. Krillin looked at her a moment before laughing and rubbing
the back of his head with his hand.
"Sorry, princess," he laughed.
Usagi tried to sense Vegeta but couldn't. He was gone. She smiled and relaxed.
"You can get off gaurd, he's gone. Now, about finding the Dragonballs..." she trailed off as she felt a sudden surge of
energy.
Then two more. The three she had sensed when she first arrived.
Screaming could be heard and she gasped, running to meet the threat. Gohan and Krillin were right behind her.
