Chapter Two - The Discovery
"What are we doing here again?" Krillin asked, looking around.
"I told you already!" Piccolo scolded, "Gohan said he saw something crash over here on his way to school. He wants us to check it out."
"Well why did it have to crash in the Dark Forest?" Krillin was trembling. "I don't like this."
"Shut up, Baldy!" Vegeta was irritated by these inferior beings. Why did he have to be in these idiots company?
"Oh Vegeta," Goku said, shaking his head.
"Leave me alone, Kakorot!" Vegeta yelled, "The only reason I'm looking for this idiotic ship is because you said you'd spar with me so just buzz off!"
"Let's split up," Piccolo cut in. "That way we'll cover more ground and we won't waste time fighting with each other."
"Right." Everyone agreed and flew off in different directions.

Vegeta cruised along, talking to himself. "Darn this planet," he cursed. "Darn Kakorot!" he yelled.
"I am the prince of all Saiyans and they will learn to treat me like one!" Just then, Vegeta noticed something glimmering in the early morning sunlight.
"What?" he swooped down to investigate. Vegeta landed in the tree cover a few feet away. As he looked into the clearing, he saw the wreckage of what looked like a Saiyan spaceship! For once, Vegeta had a loss for words. But more surprises were yet to come. As Vegeta looked closer he saw a young girl standing by the ship. No wait, is that a tail?!
"A Saiyan?!" Vegeta blurted. The young Saiyan's tail twitched but other then that, she acted like she didn't even hear him. "I gotta get the others," he whispered, "Wait! I'm the Saiyan prince! I don't need the others!" Vegeta stepped out into the clearing.

"Hey! Saiyan girl!" Kamia spun round to face the voice. She gasped when she saw the man step into the clearing her ship had made. He was of average height with the bulging muscles of a warrior. He had jet-black hair and a receding hairline. The permanent expression on his face was that of the fighters she had seen on Mini Vegeta. In fact, everything about him screamed out SAIYAN!
"Who are you?" she asked.
"That is none of your concern. He said, boldly. "The question is, who are you? And where did you come from?" The tears, she could feel them pressing against her eyes. She couldn't cry in front of this man, this Saiyan. Yes, she was sure that's what he was. Kamia held her head high.
" I am the Saiyan Kamia. My Grandfather came from the Planet Vegeta but I came from a nearby moon named Mini Vegeta." She said proudly.
"Is that so?" the man said, slightly amused. "Well then Kamia, you'll have to come with me."
"Why?!" she shouted, anger rising. No one can push her around that way. "I don't even know who you are so why should I come with you?!"
"Because I am Saiyan Prince Vegeta and you are just a child so you will do as your told."
"Sa… Sa… Saiyan P… P… Prince Vegeta?" She was astonished to be in the presence of her Grandfather's prince. Should she bow? Get down on her knees and beg for forgiveness? As if to answer her question, Prince Vegeta spoke.
"Yes, I am Saiyan Prince Vegeta and you must come with me. If you don't, I might have to kill you. If you do, I won't kill you… today." The prince smiled. It was an evil smile and Kamia was scared.
"O… O… Okay." She stammered. Prince Vegeta flew into the air.
"Well come on child, I haven't got all day!" Kamia looked to the ground.
"I can't fly." She muttered softly. Prince Vegeta scowled. He swooped down and lifted her off the ground, muttering something about baby-sitting not being in his job description. They flew out of the tree cover, away from the bad memories of her spaceship.
