Chapter 7
Time to Say Goodbye
Still on the ground the young woman was looking at the Changeling, she knew for sure he was going to give her the final blow, but strangely enough she seemed not to care about that her eyes was on the prince. She knew that she have to act fast if she wanted to keep the prince safe, even though that will mean the end of time here. She could feel the excruciating pain, something she had never felt before; maybe it was due to her human body. That old plan that had backfired on her long time ago, how could she forget?
It seemed like eternity maybe it was, the day she had decided to steal the *Forlorn Hope* and whish to acquire the *Gate of Soul*. She had enough to served King Yama, guarding his volt. She couldn't understand why those imbeciles have to have the biggest job in The Other World; she hated the Kais more than anything else. What a joke? Those fools were supposed to watch the Universe but couldn't even their jobs properly. It wasn't like she cared by any kind of human being, she couldn't care less of those creature, but having the power over others was the only thing she was interested in. Knowing what was on the volt she had decided to steal it. She had heard about the incredible power of the *Forlorn Hope* the mirror like magical item can grant what ever your heart desire, she also known about the Gate of Soul and its incredible power it could gives its owner she do the math and it added pretty well. Steal the Forlorn Hope whish for the Gate of Soul and rule the Universe and The Other World.
Everything went as plan until it was time to make that wish, she got what she wanted alright, but lost her life in exchange, that was the rule for the Forlorn Hope to grant your wish you have to give it your life! She agreed, but got caught. She was trial and condemned to lose her soul the only thing she got left, so she escaped and went to the mortal world. The Gate of Soul enabled her to steal other people body she changed body as someone changed clothes because she could keep them for long, incompatibility of the kind of soul. This was a problem until she heard about Lightian. They were magical being that lived in this Universe; they weren't like the beings in The Other world but close enough. So she went after them, but maybe they were expecting her because she had a hard time getting what she wants. Angry at the high priestess for daring challenging her, so she took over of her twelve year old girl. Not having the courage to hurt her daughter's body the priestess made sure that she could ever leave it and put spell on her. She had been imprisoned in giant crystal; she didn't know how she got out and how she found herself at W.A carrying for the prince.
"Now it's time to die!" said Freeza
'Here goes nothing!' she thought concentrating a big light come out of the Gate of Soul on her chest breaking it.
"What evil is this?" said the Changeling surprised that he didn't blasted her. The light took form and when it didn't shine anymore a young man can be seen. He was blue and with blond hair and quite handsome.
"Ore, what's going on here!" said the boy that just regained consciousness.
'Take Yakusoku with you and get out of here! I'll take care of Freeza!" said the young man.
Freeza was shocked, that he couldn't speak Vegeta went to his friend and help her get up, and supporting her flied away. He looked back at Ore and wonder 'How did he get here, he does look strange' actually he was glowing.
"Let's dance!" he said charging at Freeza.
Vegeta made it with Yakusoku in their spaceship. The prince didn't lose anytime he went to the commands and took off. Yakusoku had her hands on her chest and was breathing hard. When Vegeta was sure they were at a safe distance of Freeza and his men. He went checking on his friend.
"Yakusoku, are you ok?"
"I don't think so, it looks pretty bad"
"Are you going to be ok?" she didn't answer.
"Vegeta listen to me, I will have to leave you for a while…"
"No don't please! You promise that you'll be there for me"
"I can no longer stay! I want you to know that I am glad I met you, you are really an incredible boy"
"Just hold on, I am sure I can find some help!"
"Even though you could I don't think that anyone can help me now"
"Why do you have always come out of your way to save me?"
"Because I love you and care for you I couldn't stand seeing you hurt!"
"Look where it put you? I…" Vegeta had a lot of trouble keeping his tears.
"You'll have to be strong, and never forget who you are."
"I won't"
She caressed his left cheeks smiling at him, while the whole in her chest was getting bigger; she was slowly dematerializing into little particles of light. Vegeta was watching not knowing what to think or say. She was gone now the billion little lights, that was flying all around the prince, before going through the spaceship and dispersed in space. The only thing that was left of her was the jewel embedded in her forehead, that was now in Vegeta's hand
Back in the planet Freeza was still fighting Ore, when he stopped.
"I'll like to stay and play with you but I got to go" said the young man. He turned to a ball of light and flied away.
"Come back here you coward!"
"Sir the woman and the boy had left do you want us to intercept them?"
"Don't bother I know where they went" answered Freeza.
Back in Vegeta's pace ship the young boy had his face on the spaceship window watching the stars. He was alone once again, he hated that feeling. She was only gone for two days and he already missed her. He liked her very much, he liked everything about her the way she talked and laughed, the way she moved. He always liked when she hold him he felt so secure when he was on her armed, he liked falling asleep there. Now that she was gone, he didn't know how he will manage.
'I am going back home now, my father will be happy to see me again'
He went to sit in front of the controls looking in space. He was tying to remember all the time he spent with her. They had a lot of fun. She made sure that he will be always being happy, but now he was so sad that he felt like crying.
'This is the second time he took my mom away from me' he suddenly stopped the thought.
'What I am thinking!'
After a while he fell asleep. He dreamed about her mother the queen training with him everybody was here, even Yakusoku but she wasn't laughing like the others when he tried to touch her something pushed him away, she looked at him with sadness, she open her mouth to say something but was cut short by a blast that went through her chest. It was Freeza, he took the little saiya-jin by its tail and putting him upside down he said
"You are mine now, you can escape me" then started laughing hysterically. He awake from his dream looking for her comfort only to realized that she was gone. The control was clicking telling that he had arrived. He run to the ship window to look at his planet. The smile on his face change to terror when he saw there were nothing left of his planet than some big rocks.
"No, no it can't be it most be some kind of mistake!" he went looking at the coordinates; they only proved what he had fears. He fell down on his knee sobbing. "I am all alone now everybody is gone; I am the only one left"
Back on planet Freeza a spaceship had landed. From it an eight year old boy, he walk pass everybody who were looking at him and surprised. When he reached Freeza's quarters Dodoria and Zarbon were waiting for him. He walked pass them and enter the room. "Well, well, well, look what I got here. It isn't my little lost ship. The prince didn't answer. All this was a nightmare, after wandering in space he had decided to return to him, he didn't have a choice he didn't know where to go. Freeza get up to his chair and stood in front of him.
"You think that you could defy me without paying the price!" he said hitting the boy hard on the wall. Vegeta knew by now that it was time to say goodbye to everything. Outside the room you could heard the prince's screamed, because Freeza was torturing him, when he was over with him almost every bone of his body was broke, half conscious Freeza said to him
"You are nothing now forget about you being royalty, you are now my pet you'll live only my amusement, and nothing else, do hear me" he said his foot on his head. Weakly the prince said
"I am the prince Vegeta and I'll be always no matter what you did or will do to me!"
"Fool!" the Changeling said kicking him off the floor the prince fell down loosing consciousness.
"Do you think he'll live" said Napa to the doctor.
"I can't say yet"
"What happened to him?" said Raditz
"I don't know, but Freeza said that he got in a big fight and almost die"
"Who ever did this most be pretty powerful?"
"Yeah" in the regenerating tank the prince was struggling between life and dead.
"Vegeta wake up!"
"Dad! Is it you?"
"Yes son, but you have to wake up"
"I don't want to"
"You are the only one who can avenge us, are you going to lets us down? You are destined to great things are you going to give up!"
"No I had learned never to!"
Slowly the prince opened his eyes, and look around him.
"Look he's awake"
"I told you that he will"
It was been three month since the prince was awake in already his two companions had gotten to his nerve.
"Why me? For all the people on my planet to survive was to be this idiot Napa and that weakling Raditz". Said walking to Freeza's quarter
"Hey Vegeta wait up we are coming with you" said Napa. Freeza had decided to send them on cleaning duty, and Vegeta was glad every time he could get off this planet, which couldn't stand Freeza and far away he was from him better it was.
'That way he won't be able to call me on his quarters whenever he wants' he said sadly
'One day I'll make him pay!'
Years have come and left and the prince had become a man, one who his name only spread fears on others heart, he was ruthless cold and cruel feeling nothing but hatred, he wouldn't stop at nothing to get what he want, a man that Freeza had messed up making him become what he wanted.
The three Saiya-jins were in Freeza's quarters reporting about the last planet they have taking care of.
"We have taken only three day to take care of it" reported Raditz
"Three days! Tell me Zarbon how long it will take you to take care of a planet like this?" asked Freeza.
"Maybe one day or day and a half max" The three Saiya-jins were very angry.
"You may leave! I have better matter to attend to"
"What that's all you have to say, after all the work we did!" said Napa that was running toward Freeza and his henchmen.
"NAPA WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING?" Napa stopped on his tract and turned back.
"I am sorry lord Freeza we are leaving now"
"What a character!"
"What do you expect from a monkey" said Zarbon and Freeza's and his men started laughing. Vegeta stopped a second at the insult and clinched his fist, then left with the other.
"Vegeta listen to me, I heard that Vegetasei didn't really collide with another planet!" said Napa
"What are you saying?" asked Raditz
"I heard that Freeza did it" continued Napa, the prince who was still walking then stopped and said
"I already knew that"
"What you knew and still continue to obey him?" said Napa surprised.
"So he killed my father destroyed my people, that means nothing to me now. Strength is the only thing that matter in this world, everything else is just a delusion for the weak"* answered Vegeta
Vegeta was in his room putting some stuff away, when Napa entered his room. "Don't you ever knock? How many times I told you to not barge in here like it was your own room!" yelled the prince.
"I am sorry Vegeta I wanted to tell you that every thing was ready" Looking at a table near by he added
"Oh I see you are the one who had it the whole time, the King was looking all over for it after the queen…"
"What are you talking about?" cut Vegeta who hate talking about his parents.
"Well that medallion you have here was your mother's where did you find it?" "Why don't you go minding your own business and live me alone?"
Napa left leaving the prince alone. He took the medallion in his hand he was made of the jewel that was in Yakusoku's head. 'He must be mistaking, that idiot wouldn't recognized his own face if he looked in the mirror' he said putting it in a box and hide it, he never leave any personal thing lying anywhere. He left the room to go find Napa.
"Where's Raditz?"
"He went to a distant planet to go find his brother"
'Great another weakling!' he said.
"We better get going now"
"Yes let's go!"
