Last time on Thy Kingdom Come: Just as Vegeta caught Otro's arm in an almost connected punch, the final buzzer rang. Both men stopped suddenly as they knew neither one were able to finish the other in the final period. The two Saiyans separated easily and returned to the center ring. A stumbled referee met them again in the middle shaking his head.

"Well gentlemen you displayed a very hands on fight for us today. The fact is the neither of you were able to kill the other, so we must turn to Princess Ningami for a decision."





Thy Kingdom Come

Chapter 6: A Princess' Choice



All eyes in the arena shifted to the safe box where the Saiyan Princess sat. Nappa was shocked, as she was that the time was up, and Vegeta was unable to finish off the servant. Ningami's face was of complete horror as she turned to look at Nappa. Nappa took a hold of Ningami's hands as then both began to stand up, making their way towards the battlegrounds.





"Nappa, no I can't. Don't make me go out there and say what I have to say." Ningami said with a shaking voice.

"Princess please you must. You know whom you must choose. Vegeta will die if you choose Otro. Search your heart for the words you need to set Otro free."" Nappa said in almost comforting and compassionate voice, in which he had never used with anyone before.

The crowd was going simply wild as Ningami and Nappa moseyed onto the field taking their time. Vegeta was obviously irritated at the fact he couldn't kill his petty servant during the fight and the slowness Ningami was making out onto the field was almost unbearable. Vegeta wanted to jump right onto Otro's back and start to pummel him into the ground, then blast him into tiny squares.

When Nappa and Ningami finally reached the center circle where the referee's and the two reefed up Saiyan fighters were standing, Nappa reached out to grab Vegeta's arm keeping him from doing anything foolish. You could see the red flames burning in his eyes as Otro crossed his arms over his chest and brought a cocky curled smile to his lips. Ningami was ushered over to the referee when he stuck a large, old black microphone in her face as she prepared to speak.

"My fellow Saiyans. It has brought to all of your attention that I, Ningami the Saiyan Princess have chosen two males as my mate. On this day the two males I chose fought a long hard battle and since no end was met, I have come out here to relay my choice as whom I'd like to be my mate. I choose Vegeta as my mate and to be The King of all Saiyans." As the microphone was pulled from her face, Ningami's breathing pace sped up to almost a panic, as she was unsure as everyone else as whom she's choose to be her mate.

The crowd was absolutely livid and the guards were barely able to control them. Two referees were suddenly behind Otro and clasping his wrists together, tying them together with a supposable indestructible rope. Otro began to pled with the referee's to help him and change his fate, but they soon forced him to kneel down in the center of the circle, about two feet in front of the Saiyan Prince. Vegeta's smirk returned to his lips as Otro was forced to calm down and stay still so Vegeta could finish him off.

Vegeta held his hand out as the referee's left Otro's side. His fingers flicked up and his thumb rested across the top of his palm, just below his finger line. A small ball of white light began to glow a few inches from Vegeta's palm and what seemed like to be in unison was Ningami and Otro closed their eyes to shield them from the sight of Otro meeting his pitiful end. Nappa's smile returned to his face has he seen the look of fear on the face of Otro.

Vegeta's cruel laugh escaped his throat just before he fired a thin blast towards the forehead of the kneeling Otro. In the blink of an eye Ningami had fled from her place on the battlefield and flew right into Vegeta, knocking him over so his blast was directed into the crowd. The scream of the man who was hit was almost as loud as the sound of Ningami's shriek of the two-letter word "No".

Vegeta was as shocked as everyone else watching, including Ningami whom had not realized she actually went through with keeping Vegeta from killing Otro. Opening her mouth to say a reason but all that could come out was small gurgles. The referee with the microphone slowly stepped over to the angry looking Vegeta, and the stumbled Ningami.

"Your Highness, Princess Ningami, it seems that you have pushed the Prince so that he would not be bale to finish Otro off. Have you decided to change your decision from Vegeta to this petty servant Otro?" The referee then held out the microphone back into Ningami's face, and her mumbling was projected into the microphone.

"I.I.I would not like to change my choice. I would however like to have a moment to speak with Vegeta about Otro's sentence." Ningami said with confidence in her voice. Her body began to shake as Vegeta stared a hole through her. Grabbing onto her arm, Vegeta hustled Ningami over to the side of the battlefield away from anyone's hearing distance. The crowd went completely silent as the two began to talk, rather yell back and forth.

"Are you insane woman! You want to "discuss" the sentence of Otro? There is nothing to discuss! You cannot make your choice of who you want to be your mate then save the one you did not choose. Are you that stupid?!" Vegeta screamed into Ningami's face angrily. Ningami was beginning to lose her temper with every cruel word he spoke to her.

"I don't want you to kill him, is that so bad!? He's my friend Vegeta, but since you have no friends you don't know the true value of someone's friendship! All I'm asking is that you spare his life. Throw him in jail for all I care, send him to one of the moons just don't kill him, please." Ningami's tone of voice began to get quieter as she spoke and it seem to sooth Vegeta's rage.

"Alright woman, but this is the last straw. I won't tolerate your disrespect for me or your Saiyan people any longer, " Holding out a hand Vegeta motioned for Ningami and himself to return back to the center of the field, "Please go and tell your people the decision you have made."

Ningami was a little started about making another public speech but he lifted her chin into the air and began her march back over to the center of the field. Vegeta followed closely behind and stood a safe distance close to her in case Otro did try anything funny. The stunned referee's could do nothing but hold out the microphone to Ningami's mouth. Snatching it from the referee's hand so she could hold it herself, Ningami worked up the courage for the speech she was about to make.

"My fellow Saiyans I must address you as a whole again. I would like to apologize for my actions of disrespect towards Prince Vegeta and all of you fine worriers of the Saiyan Elite. Otro was a servant of the Prince and myself until a path of recent events brought us here today. Otro was also my friend; we grew up together on one of the moons of Planet Vegeta. I have chosen Vegeta as my mate and as my King, but I would like to spare my friends life. Friendship is stronger than anger, it is stronger than hate, jealousy and betrayal. But above all these reigns love, and love will always surpass friendship though sometimes they come in a pair. I sentence the servant Otro to one year in a Saiyan Elite prison, then he must return to the moon of Toynamke where he shall then stay with the remainder of his family." Handing the microphone back to the referee Ningami lifted her skirt so it would not drag on the ground and returned to the safety bow, along with Nappa.

The crowd booed and hissed at the display they just saw. They were never so angry with their Prince or Princess until this day. Otro was beckoned back up to his feet by two Saiyan Elite guards whom were ready to escort Otro to a shuttle vehicle in, which would take him to the nearest prison holding center. Vegeta returned to the safety box and retrieved his Princess and Nappa, they too were escorted to their Royal Shuttle and left for the Palace. The coronation would be tomorrow, followed by Vegeta and Ningami's wedding.
