Chapter Thirteen- Minsa's Conversations
A day before the excuetion, Minsa woke, much to the doctor's surprise, but she wouldn't talk to anyone, but Vegeta. So the Prince was called down immediatley, where all the doctors were threatened out of the room
"Minsa, what's wrong?"
Minsa looked up at Vegeta, her green hair limp against her pale skin.
"Vegeta, do you remember why I first came here?"
Vegeta thought for a moment, and then replied.
"It was for negoations between our planets, wasn't it?"
Minsa sighed slightly, at knowing that Vegeta didn't remember the whole story. But who could blame him? He had only been five, why remember just another planet being destroyed in the millions of planets that were destroyed everday? But it was always different when it was your planet.
Minsa sat back, and nodded.
Vegeta looked at her worried, she had never seemed so... defeated, as though she had been fighting a battle, and by his answer she had lost.
"So are you and Bulma together yet?" Minsa asked with a spark of her old self.
Vegeta was shocked for a moment, and then filled with pleasure at the thought of Bulma, before being filled with a horrible sadness, at her excepted death tomorrow.
Minsa watched his face change emotion, and understood instantly
"Goku was blamed for what happened to me, and now they're all being punished..."
Vegeta nodded.
"I want to be able to be with Bulma forever, but things are so complicated. These things are forbidden!"
Minsa laughed.
"You're forbidden to fall in love because you're the Saiyan no Ouji?"
Then she grew serious.
"But Vegeta, we have to find a way to save them, we can't let them be held guilty for a crime they didn't commit."
"Minsa, if Kakarrot didn't rape you... then who did?" Vegeta asked gently.
Minsa didn't answer, she seemed to close up to him, and he felt frightened by the tranformation that had suddenly occurred in his friend.
"Anyway... we could smuggle them out tonight. I bet Bulma would be able to figure out how to fly my ship and they could go back to Earth. It hasn't been exterminated, so there's no problem there. And they won't look too hard for my ship, figuring that they won't be able to handle it. And we'd be left out of the picture."
Vegeta nodded, thinking about this plan.
"That might just work. I'll send Bulma, to see if ChiChi knows if Bardock is ok, with the escape. If she says he would be, then I'll confront him about it."
"If he's not?"
"I'll have to kill him."
"How will we get Goku and the others out of prison?" Minsa said after a slight pause, not comfortable with the thought that a murder could be involved in their plans.
"Uh... well, they always place the prisoners in a room by themselves, before the excuete them. It shouldn't be hard to break them out, since there will be no guards around them anyway. Stupid stupersticion. Thinking you'll catch 'death' by being by a prisoner on death row." Vegeta said, snorting.
Minsa nodded, still thinking.
"How are you going to get me out of here now?" she asked smiling sweetly.
"That's up to you crazy. You got yourself in here." Vegeta said standing.
"Vegeta!"
"Bye Minsa. See you tonight."
"Vegeta! Get your ass back here!"
~~~~~~~~
Minsas slept for awhile then, when she felt a shaking at her shoulders. She tried to clear her mind, and adjust her eyes who she could who was there, but once she did, she wished she hadn't.
"Riroku..." she hissed.
"Minsa." he said grinning.
"What the hell is so damn funny?!" Minsa said, searching for anything to attack him with, if the need came.
Riroku pulled her hands to him.
"By tomorrow you'll be thanking me, I gurantee it."
"For killing my friends? I think not." Minsa said angrily.
"No... I've done so much for you. Minsa you will be free again. Free to live out your destiny."
"I don't want to leave out that destiny anymore! Riroku, what have you done?" Minsa's eyes filled with fear.
"I've done it for us. By tonight, there will be no more Saiyans. You won't have to worry about that bastand prince Vegeta, or his whore."
Minsa's mind heard what he had said, but didn't comprehend.
"What do you mean no more Saiyans?" she said swallowing hard.
'Just what the hell has Riroku done? Has he gone totally mad? I've got to get out of here, away from him...'
"Oh my Minsa... I've done something most wondeful, that will destroy the whole Saiyan race, just as they destroyed us." his face hardened. "When we came to this planet, it wasn't just any of Frieza's men that destroyed our race. It was Saiyans!"
Minsa swallowed again, and shut her eyes.
"Don't like Riroku. Don't lie. The Saiyans wouldn't have destroyed our race, it was a disadvantage to them."
"True, the King didn't know anything of it, but a band of Saiyans went to Frieza the night we came for permission to go destroy the rest of our race. Minsa, the Saiyans have to be punished for what they've done to us, to our race, to you! You're above them, my lady. You do remember don't deny it!"
Minsa squeezed her eyes tighter, and was tempted, just to cover her ears and scream so she couldn't hear Riroku talk. Yes, she remembered. She didn't want to, but she did.She remembered everything about that day, that week, even though she had only been five years old.
"I'm paying the Saiyans back with their own medicine, my darling Minsa." Riroku said, stroking her hand, as though trying to comfort her. "I've asked Frieza to send some of his mento destroy Planet Vegeta, and they arrive tonight. You and I have permission to leave. We will serve Frieza together."
Minsa's eyes snapped open.
"No! No!" she yelled. "Can't you see Riroku? It's Frieza doing all this! No the Saiyans! Frieza gave the order to destroy our race, and now he's going to try and destory the Saiyans! He's just using you, just like he used the Saiyans!"
Riroku shook his head sadly.
"No, Minsa. I'm sorry, but you're wrong."
Minsa tried to struggle to her feet.
'I've got to warn Vegeta!"
Riroku gently knocked her out.
"I'm sorry, Lady Minsa. You'll understand one day."
Author's Note: First off, I want to say how sorry I am that it took me so long to get Chapter Twelve, and Chapter Thirteen out. They were done, but I got grounded off the internet. ^_^(). Anyway, A Web of Lies and Death is going really good. *hint* *hint* Also I got the Bardock special!! :-D Happy! I don't think I did too bad at Bardock's character. He was only slightly OOC. Too emotional, me thinkee for someone he barely knew. Oh well. Too late now! Review, review, review please! I'm no where near 100, and getting closer and closer to the end! Or email me at vegetaztwin@hotmail.com to join my mailing list, even though it is kind of pointless now.
