8. The harem

Moaning and groaning Sakura woke, too light...she rolled over and bumped into someone else. Far from gracious Diana stirred, limbs draped at the most indecent angles. Flopping a flat hand into Sakura=s face she snored on. Sakura swatted Diana=s hand of like a blind man, rolled off the bed and crawled under it to hide from the sun.

Energetically Taurus strolled through the huge bedrooms, which were open and connected to the grand harem, hall. Everything was accounted for. Two pools. Showers, slaves to do the cleaning, and manicures and stuff, Grand drapes from the high ceiling to the ground. Ceiling to ground windows to a balcony. Diana deep asleep moved over and flopped against someone who also deep asleep and snoring loudly, dropped an arm around her. She draped hers on the chest and softly slept on. Taurus passing the closed see through drapes of several bedchambers. Noting the fact some already were awake and bathing scarcely or not dressed at all in the pools and chiding and luring him over. Oh they were pretty, but he had no intention to die today. Instead he walked streight on, passing green, blue, red, orange and pink drapes, until he stopped at a purple drape. He peered through the fine fabric and blinked.

APrince Vegeta...check...Diana over the prince...check...Sakura?@ Shaking his head he silently entered and tiptoed to the side he and commander Zorn had dropped the threesome. Now where did she go? Scratching his scalp he walked more until a hand clasped his boot. He sweat dropped. No way... Glancing past the shell formed 5 person bed, the purple bed drapes...the prince, Diana and some pillows, the bed frame to a hand who squeezed as hard as she= could. Which wasn=t painful in the slightest. AH there she was.

Crunching he peered underneath and found another hand. Grinning cruel he grabbed a second wrist and yanked her from under the bed. She whimpered as she tried to hide from the sunlight.

AOuch...ouch...mercy...@ AI=m not doing anything.@ Taurus snickered. ALight...@ Sakura whimpered. Smirking he tossed her over his shoulder as she whimpering buried her face in the small of his back, crossing her arms before her face. Mumbling in her sleep Diana embraced the prince like a lifesaver. He responded asleep by enveloping himself around her tighter.

APillow is killing me...@ Diana muttered still a bit asleep. ACan=t breath...@ AWomasuddp...@ the prince grumbled before losing his grasp. AFuck you.@ AWaddev...@ APillows don=t talk...@ AShddp.@ he replied. AGsleep.@ AKay.@

Meanwhile Taurus walked through the grand hall with Sakura and kicked open the balcony doors. Sakura whimpered more and more.

ARise and shine!@ Taurus exclaimed as Sakura made such a shriek his ears rang. Before he knew it she stretched out his armour and dove inside it. Her arms first. Stunned he held her feet. What the hell just happened?

AYo...Sakura? GET OUT!@ but Sakura had no intention of complying. Instead she just as pissed as he currently was, shot her hands down and under neath his suit and past his bare skin, reached out and by accident grabbed a hold of his tail. Whimpering he fell to one knee.

AGET OFF WOMAN!@ he snarled. Trying to pull her out, yet the harder he pulled the tighter she grabbed his tail which allowed her to stay exactly where she was.

Sleepy the couple had retreated under the blankets, Vegeta shedding his armour, and both lay over the other again. The drama on the balcony continued. Taurus howled for guards which ran over. Kakarott first one arriving stopped stone cold at the sight of Taurus yanking on a woman=s feet, while she was stuck it seemed in the back of his armour, and under neath it two hands clasped the beginning of his tail. Instead of being empathic with his nephew, Kakarott did the next best thing. He laughed his head off and lay clutching his stomach on the ground.

The other four who joined eyed the scene speechless. Which woman would dare crawl into a guards armour and grab a hold of his tail?

AHELP ME YOU IDIOTS!@ Taurus wailed. ANO SUN!@ the woman cried. AFINE! Now LET GO!@ AMAKE ME!@ Kakarott gasped for air as he laughed more, recognising the voice. One of the couple!

Zorn stalked into the harem, glancing briefly at the commotion outside before stalking into the purple drapes. Yanking the fabric aside he entered and glanced down at the couple. Where was the third? Ah well.

AYour highness?@ AHmm...@ the prince grumbled. AMy prince?@ AWot?@

AThe king asked for your presence in the throne room. As soon as possible.@ sleepy Vegeta glanced up, at Diana=s head and back to Zorn. What happened?

AZORN? Can=t you see I=m BUSY?@ Zorn stoic glanced at the wall above the bed. ANow don=t be so stubborn. You know that when the king asks= for something, it=s an order.@ Vegeta grunted at his words. Calmly Zorn waved in two huge Super Elites. Vegeta noticed and didn=t like it one bit.

ADon=t you dare Zorn...@ Zorn pointed at the prince. AMy prince, I nearly do this ritual each morning with the king. And I still live. If you have complaints, bring them to the king. Do you require assistance?@ Zorn eyed the prince who turned crimson.

AGET OUT!!!@ he growled. Sleepy Diana pushed a pillow in Vegeta=s hand. Ready to be tossed against the intruders. Vegeta threw it over her on the bed.

ANo use.@ he explained. Diana pulled herself up, peered watery around the room then grabbed a vase off a night stand and handed that instead. Vegeta threw it up interested. Glared at Zorn and threw it hard. Barely Zorn ducked away as it clashed behind him. Eager Diana re-supplied the sharp aiming prince. Sweat dropping Zorn and his men retreated outside for a new plan.

AHow many vases are in there?@ Zorn growled. AToo many...@ one of his minions muttered. Rubbing his head where one hit. The prince had a nasty aim and fire power. A vase with a Ki ball inside it wasn=t common. Packed one hell of a bang.

The king stalked inside. Noted the wailing in frustration Taurus, and Zorn who seemed to discuss something with two elites. First Taurus, he was screaming the palace together. Angrily he gently shoved females aside who looked, his mates. Stupid bimbo=s. Brainless pretty girls. Impatient he growled at a couple who had been nagging him for some time with their disrespect. Thinking they were queens. DUH. Dream on. He blasted the wenches to ashes. Had never bedded them anyway. Terrified the others scattered like leafs in the wind. Much better. He kicked Kakarott aside who cried in pain and glee. Seeing Taurus=s dilemma he frowned...err...ouch... Displaying nothing of this on his face he stalked over. Grabbed the girls wrists and squeezed hard until he was worried he might break something. Some of these women were bloody frail.

AOUCH BIG BULLY!@ He smirked. AThat is why they call me HIGH KING.@ she whimpered and muttered inaudible. The king ignored it as he yanked her out. Curling below on his boots he blinked. Sakura? At first she cried out in pain, then curled up foetal position, before crawling around his feel and hide under his cape.

AThat was it? The light? My dear, I can hang curtains in your room...@ the king stammered. All this because of LIGHT? And what the hell was she doing here? Taurus recovered and stood unsteady before the king, bowing deep.

ATaurus? EXPLAIN? What the hell was she doing outside? Obviously not for a sun tan!@ Taurus sweat dropped. AMy liege...Commander Nappa instructed me to wake them and bring them to you. But she didn=t want too...I thought sunlight might help her wake up...@

ANO, hint. Next time try holding a beer can before her nose, she seems to be fond of it!@ a head, cloaked under his blue cape popped up. She held herself steady by leaning lightly against the small of his back.

ABeer? Where?@ Smirking the king eyed the unnatural hump. AMy point?@ Taurus nodded soar. AGet a check up, and for Diana? Wave a package of Cigarettes before her nose...speaking of which...@ He whirled around. Bowling Sakura over.

AMY BEER...@ she crawled after him. ASoon woman. DIANA!@ his voice echoed through the hall.

AWHAT? I=m awake, busy with a war! We=re winning! GO VEGETA! Do the one with the trick, target at 3 o=clock!@ The king growled as one of the elites was hit and thrown into the pool. Trick indeed. Sakura was yanked up by her clothes and shoved before him, as she wore his cape like a head cloth. Putting one hand firm on her shoulder he pushed her onwards to the drapes.

ABetter not fire now brats! Or you=ll hit your sister!@ AHI SIS, you=re a hostage! Neat! Vegeta, don=t you dare! PUT THAT DOWN!@ Sakura pulled free and bolted inside and ducked on command of Diana. Over her head zoomed a bottle with something white pulsating inside it. The king caught it, pulled the drapes aside and threw it faster back and hit the prince who was knocked off the bed.

AOH may-day! MAYDAY! MEDIC! PRINCE DOWN! I REPEAT! PRINCE DOWN!@ Diana snickered as Vegeta pulled himself together. Bemused yet weary Diana snuck away, grabbing Sakura=s hand who eyed her confused, while the king scolded his son they slipt through the maze of hallways. Places they never saw before.

AHi girls...hi...hiya...hi we=re new, hi...where=s the way out? That way? Thanks...@ They ran like crazy, pulling up their dresses to their thighs and bare foot. The king turned around and noticed two missing. GODDAMNED!

AZORN GET THOSE TWO!@ Zorn blinked...where did they go? Innocently 400 pairs of eyes blinked. AWELL?@ the king roared. Meek thet pointed in the opposite direction. Zorn and his two elites bolted that way with Taurus and Kakarott after them.

AI am surrounded by fools...offcourse they won=t tell us where they went, retards...they went the opposite direction. EH ROSALIA?@ the woman Rosalia with pea brain had pointed in the correct direction. Getting knuckled headed by a female colleagues.

AI had enough of you all!@ The king growled as it wasn=t the first time they screwed him like this. No he had enough escapees, some of which he had wanted to keep much longer, and now the two who had made him laugh split!

He had two theories. One, all their fun before had been one big act to hide their fear, second was, they were having fun even now and would return sooner or later, having no intention to leave the palace at all. He hoped for the latter.

ADiana? Hold on.@ Both skidded to a halt. AWhy are we running?@ ABecause um...ah...dunno, looked like fun. Besides now we=re playing hide=n=seek.@ AUm...okay. I see...A DOOR!@ skipping they approached and tugged it. Locked. Just as happily they skipped to the second, each taking one side of the hallway. Trying doors.

Wandering for some time Diana eyed around a corner and spotted...4 guards? Eh? She waved Sakura over. AI found a door with is guarded, wanna go see?@ Nodding they clasped hands and skipped to the door with four guards. Two blocked their way. Diana quickly thought up a good excuse.

AThe king send for us. We=re from his harem.@ Each girl showed her forehead, still emblazed with the royal stamp. They eyed the other then nodded. Opening the door. They entered and gasped. It was HUGE. HUGE BED. Very royal blueish...with a symbol from the throne room above the bed...and err...in the carpet...and err...curtains...and err...closet...

ASay...do you think what I=m thinking?@ Sakura asked sheepish. AThat we entered the royal bedroom of the king? That we should check out his closets and underwear and stuff and see if we find some royal secret?@ Sakura nodded smirking. Diana nodded smirking back. Each shot to a corner and started nosing in closets.

AUNDERWEAR!@ Diana cried out! Laughing she displayed the tight underweare with royal symbol on it. She yanked it. AStretch! Wonder how big he is huh?@ Snickering she pulled it further and shot it at Sakura who coyly pulled it over her head. The symbol over their markings on their head. Two bobs of hair sticking out and both even managed to yank a ponytail trough the tail hole.

AOh sis?@ Sakura announced. AI located the suits!@ Ecstatic Diana zoomed across the room and both raided the closet. Both in the proud possession of a suit flopped on the carpet and yanked it a bit. Elastic too. Wonder why...

Shrugging each shed her dress and stuffed their feet in the suits. Yanking it up they eyed the butt holes...hmm...oh well no one would notice. Diana jumped up and down to an unopened closet and discovered armours. Three to be exact, tree pairs of gloves, three neatly folded capes, and last but not least...three pairs of boots. Eager she tossed some to Sakura and pulled some on. They left the capes be until Sakura mused about the butt holes again. Taking two white sheets from his bed instead they snickered. Way too long!!! it had been unmade and...both girls sniffed the fabric...male scent. WOW, royal sweat! Impatient with the huge sheets, Diana caught half of hers in her teeth and ripped it in two. Again changing both girls now walked with out 3 metres of extra cape. Patiently a shadow waited in an attached room. A study. Frowning at the sound of ripping cloth.

Happily the couple finished dressing up and snickered. Diana pointed at the still closed last door. Hadn=t seen what was there yet. Both jumped like balls to the door.

AI=m Tigre!!!@ Sakura announced. Diana frowned. AI=ll be...HOPPING STAMPER!@ and she tapped the ground in a quick motion snickering. Agreeing on their new names they opened the door and tumbled inside because they wanted to enter at the same time. Each blinked sheepish as she rose and pulled the pants back up.

The king eyed them with wide eyes. AOh...my...god...@ he muttered then started laughing. The sight was stunning. The girls bemused eyed him back while the suits kept slipping down, boots a bit too large, gloves needing to be yanked up repeatedly. The gigantic silk sheets around their armours which rested over their thighs, and last...his underwear over their heads.

AI...new clothes.@ he managed, pointing at a chair. Over it were two identical sets of dresses draped. Curious Diana struggled over.

ALooks oriental, Indian style.@ The king walked over to the couple, who glanced through the fine material. Coyly retrieving his clean underwear. Hair spilled back normal over their backs as Sakura agreed.

AYeah, from old Indian movies. They sang so pretty.@ They nodded agreeing.

AGirls, 5 to 10 minutes max, in the throne room. I have to gloat over you to make that Ice-jin jealous.@ AWhat is an Ice-jin?@ Sakura wondered. ASome species and unlikable at the least. Hurry up.@ And he left.

Curious Diana eyed the Dark blue web fine cloth with gold threads. APretty. Good thing we had Indian dancing classes eh?@ AYeah, let=s make the king proud ne?@ AYup.@

And indeed, 10 minutes later...

The prince sat stiffly in his small throne. The Ice-jin= on his FATHERS. And his father on the right side. This was So wrong. He gritted his teeth. It would be one of those days...good thing Nappa bred some more Seibamen...he was in a killing mood...So boring, and that alien just SAT there gloating! His hence man flanking the back of the dais.

The doors were opened. His father and Ice-jin stopped talking because his father wasn=t paying any attention anymore. Vegeta turned the same way. And felt his hand drop from his chin and sat up more royal. Instead of the slumped and thoroughly bored fashion he had before.

In came two fragile creatures. Their clothes waving behind them like visible wind. The finest of see through fabric draped over they=re hair and waving behind like a veil. While the same cloth was redirected behind them, emerging around their waists to the floor. Elegant shoes and wrist bands, one had a snake like being around her upper right arm, the other around her left. The same fabric crossed over their chest, but revealing enough to stir imagination. Allot... Synchronised they strode to the dais. Stopping one metre before it, before bowing elegantly. Stunned the king eyed the couple. Where these the same trouble makes he met yesterday? Mentally shaking his head he waved both up. Diana joined his side, while Sakura sided with his son. Neither had spoken yet. Silently the king was very proud. They looked stunning and Coola had an eye for natural beauty. His henchman Saucer bulged his eyes out a bit. His yellow eyes scanning their bodies.

They glanced cool back at his inspecting eyes. Evenly back at Coola=s. Before both sat down on their knees as Japanese or Chinese would. Each flanking the Saiyan royal on the wall side. Not wanting to do anything with the alien with tail or his company.

Saucer following a slight nod of Coola walked with a collage to one each, and snatched a chin and lifted it. Fire spitting eyes met them as they pulled free.

AYour highness...@ Diana pleated a bit. As saucer grabbed her wrist. The other with Sakura tried to do the same as she leaned back so far she toppled backwards. She was rudely pulled back up.

AMy prince...he=s hurting me...@ Vegeta eyed the now reddish wrist, and snatched the man=s and squeezed it to breaking point. Hissing the man propped her hand and clasped his own, while the prince continued squeezing it until he dropped on his knees in agony.

ANever...ever...touch my fathers women...@ He hissed. On the other side Saucer continued holding Diana. In despair and utter annoyance she grasped the kings arm.

AMaster Coola, call off your dogs.@ The king growled. Coola again nodded. Saucer and the other left them in peace. Each moving tightly against their thrones. And each royal draping an hand on their shoulder. Diana shivered in disgust and amazement. Calmly the king helped her up and settled her at his feet. Allowing her to lean back against his boots and knees. Wide eyed Sakura eyed the gloating Diana. Wench.

AIf you require females of your own, master, I suggest not killing all inhabitants of conquered planets, but select a few that please you.@ The king suggested while Vegeta tapped Sakura=s shoulder. Who had been too busy glaring at her sister. Jealousy? Most amusing. So this is how you get two twin sisters jealous.

AStop staring.@ Vegeta whispered to her. She glanced up as he gently lifted her chin up as he leaned down. Coola glanced at him, while Saucer gritted his teeth. Damned monkeys... AAlready going jealous?@ She tried to look away but he had her firmly in his grasp.

AI don=t know what you mean, highness.@ He snickered. SURE... Might fool that idiot Saucer, but not him. AI see...@ Instead of going into debate under that Ice-jin=s nose he, like his fathers example, led the girl before him, and assisted her in settling before him. It pleased him allot to see her settle in, so that the dress crept up a bit but not too high. He noticed more, sensing it, that Coola was interested as his henchman wanted to do a physical to both girls. Too bad for them. Would never happen.

Content Sakura glanced at the still gloating Diana who gave her a well hidden thumbs up. Smirking she returned it. The king and Vegeta eyed from the girls exchange, to each other and gave the other the, oh is it like that, eye.

Two or three hours passed by. The girls settled against their back supports, being the royal=s knees while they sometimes toyed in debate with the ice-jin, with their hair strains. Who cared. Before them were bowls with fruit on which they happily munched. Unfortunately for Sakura, no beer, instead wine. And Diana had forgotten her cigarettes and was munching on grapes to forget it.

The desire building with each passing hour, getting worse by the minute. Diana nearly could feel the wished object in her fingers...but...only a hallucination...wasn=t there, but she craved one...have mercy, stop yapping! Giving up on patience she peered around and spotted Zorn behind the throne. She winched at him, trying to get his attention. Stiffly he glanced before himself. DAMMIT! How could she get his attention without disterbing this ever so fascinating debate? Who cared about rations? Sighing soundlessly she eyed at her grapefruit...the pits? NAH.

AZorn?@ she whispered. AZORN?@ she whispered louder. His eyes darted to her. She smiled relieved, coaching him over with her finger. He glanced at the king who kept on debating. Snuck soundlessly over and crouched beside her.

AHave mercy on a girl? I need my cigarettes, any will do... please?@ she whispered hoarse. He blinked. Cigarettes? OH, he forgot, chain smoker. She lasted long...had to hand it to her. ABe right back.@ He whispered back. Rose and walked to a man near the door behind the dais. Whispered softly to him and sending him away. Taking his position again he mused about her reliance to Nicotine. And offcourse the king heard the exchange and still continued debating. Dismissing the fact his Head of Guard being used as lackey.

When the man returned Zorn glanced at Diana and nodded to her. She turned and knelt before the king with a questionable glance. Slowly he raised his gloved hand, all five fingers spread. 5 minutes? She nodded back. And rose gracioucly walking to Zorn and after getting the package bolted down the hallways to an open window. There she cred out frustrated. LIGHTER? How cruel! So close, but no fire...awwwww. Zorn ran towards her and eyed her confused.

AWhat is wrong?@ ALighter...I need a lighter! I can=t breath fire!@ shrugging Zorn concentrated and lighted the tip of one out stretched cigarette. Amazed she watched the tiny light dissipate. COOL.

ANeat trick, teach me some day...oh how much time have I left?@ A4 minutes and 21 seconds.@ Whimpering Diana inhaled quickly. AH GOOD... Puffing down a couple at once she coughed a bit as she ran back. Pulling her clothes straight she walked back inside.
