20. Alliance
***
A week passed. When Diana received a long awaited letter from Sakura. And it was LONG. The first part was her own. Asking about how it all was going with her and the baby. And how Vegeta was, and the king. If anything special happened she should know about. And that she was doing fine but missed them all allot. The second part was more serious. Taking out the code book she and Sakura had made long before, and Kakarott the copy, they decoded it.
~Met Namek-jin onboard. They have great hearing. I offered them an agreement in which we will not harm or attack their planet, after reclaiming it for them. In exchange they will give any information they can obtain. I need it in writing and with the kings seal. I'm tailing another group but their hard to get to. Many bugs planted, discovered Saucers id code. And hidden files. Still need time to read them all. It's a different language. As soon as I find something of interest you'll get it. Here an example. On the picture of me and one of the Namek-jin Nail.~
Kakarott retrieved a blue light and shone it on it. And indeed there was a copy of some text.
"Ah goody a puzzle. Sis hasn't been sitting on her butt! I'll bring this translation to the king. Then work on the language." In the past 2 years Diana had specialised herself in linguistics. Starting with Saiyan-go, and expanding to more. Sakura also mastered Saiyan-go. But kept herself to Universal standard. And her spying hobby. She ran down the halls with her dress wavering behind her. She found him in the throne room, and alone. Content she strode to the dais and bowed lightly. Handing him the letter she decoded. His eyes flashed over it.
"Is that all? IS THAT ALL???" he laughed. "Sure they can have it back. SCRIBE, get your tail here now! That information they give is priceless. If they want that swamp back, let them. There is nothing there of value. Hell we'll even protect it. Station Nappa there or something." He mused. Zorn eyed him eager. Bet he wanted it today then tomorrow. The king calmed down when the scribe entered.
"Ah Zorn, patience. Coola isn't gone yet." Zorn's face fell. Aw...why not send him in advance...just in case...cleaning up the other residence... The king dictated the letter, before putting his own signature on it, and barked for a couple of warriors to be sent to him.
Diana smirked as Yasai and Jagaime entered the hall. Eh! Hadn't seen those two in a while! She waved at them as their eyes shimmered in recognition. The prince stalked inside and glared at her.
"SIT DOWN." "I'M NOT A DOG!" she threw back. the prince glared at her, she glared back. "Sit down for the baby..." he repeated. And he wasn't prone to repeating. "The baby is fine, its not even a baby yet... and for you mister, I quit smoking for gods know how long so GET OFF MY BACK!" Vegeta blinked. She quit? Now she mentioned it...she hadn't been smoking since last week...hmm...Shrugging he stood beside her. The king glanced up at Diana. She quit? The chain smoker? Impressive...
"Now gentlemen as soon as the brat is here, I'll smoke again." they sighed. Patiently Yasai and Jagaime waited. Where was Sakura?
"I want you two to give this personally to Sakura at Coola's ship. Zorn. Give them a screwball mission near his ship." "My liege...Namek is nearby..." Zorn muttered hopeful. "Yes but its occupied by Coola's friends. Not yet. Last time I say it Zorn, be patient." He wasn't to angry with Zorn, actually amused his hate went so deep.
"Yes sire. I'll find something." Zorn muttered soar. They turned to leave with the letter. Diana stopped them. "You can take mine as well, as soon as I write it." She waved them after her.

Sakura sighed deep. How long had she been here already? A whole week? BORING. But Coola seemed fond of her. She ate with him. Talked with him, stood next to him. Was his female escort to a planet, she secretly made an alliances with. All in a days work. He had yet to ask her to sleep with him. Thank heavens. Her mood downed instantly.
"Sakura, why not sleep with me tonight. We know each other long enough..." Two slid eyes glanced up as she kept here face straight with difficulty. WAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
"Certainly Master, it would be an honour..." Inside her head she did a ha- ra-ki-ri. Ritual suicide...AHHH MERCY! She prayed to the gods. Let him be sick, let him die, get him in a healing tank...poison him, make him implode...NAIL...She had managed to talk Coola into letting Nail stay with her and the kitchen aid in Nail's place. That Piccolo dude was way moody. Nail at least was pleasant enough. She wore a dress and cape behind her.
"Master, permission to roam around the ship?" Coola waved her off. "Be back in an hour." "I will. Thank you sir." She turned and walked away. Time for information round.
Strolling with Nail behind her like a bodyguard she sighed pitiful. "To nights the night, I'll die completely..." She sung. "He made my love, die completely!"
"Talk about sarcasm..." Nail mused. Sakura mused about a second set of lyrics. "But now, I'm doomed, forced inside his bed... Oh I'll die-ayyy of sorrow..."
"All in the duty of courtesan. However, I empathise." she eyed him soar. "Why thank you very much. You'll be the only one." "No in fact all of the Namek-jin will. To a certain point." she froze. "You said he was sexless..." she hissed. "As far as I know, he is. But I cannot be certain." Sakura whimpered. "It is not as if I help him go to the toilet." Nail continued. She snickered.
"That would be something. Maybe Saucer does. Wiping his ass and such." They laughed. Then she froze...and bolted to two newly arrived soldiers. She flung herself around Yasai's neck./
"AHHH!!!" he caught her snickering. "Kill me for I'll die tonight!" she whimpered in his armour. "Shoot me and I'll die in line of duty..." Confused Yasai tried to peel her off but she was stuck like glue. Jagaime eyed Nail curious then tapped Sakura's shoulder.
"It's okay, were here now." He comforted. She wailed harder. "What's wrong?" Yasai asked, his chin flat on his chest to look at Sakura. "She has been 'invited' to Coola's room for the night." Both froze. Their Sakura?
"I don't wanna..." She complained. "Understandable. But you must...do it for us? Be a martyr. We'll tell them back home mow brave you are." Yasai promised. She wailed loudest.
"Martyr?! And the king can't KNOW! I'll die of shame..." "Look, he knows what your doing it for right?" Jagaime mused. "And you don't have to die to be a martyr." Yasai added. "We'll think of you. Just think of him as if he were the king." She groaned.
"He has a different colour..." "Then turn off the lights." they advised. "He has a different head..." "Lights out." "He doesn't have hair..." "Don't touch his head." "His has no fluffy tail!" "Past furry stuff over it."
"AW. You want me to sleep with him. You make me sick." she pushed from Yasai and sulked. Then clung Jagaime.
"He doesn't take me serious..." She whined. "Woman, stop moping, do it for king and country, err planet." "Is not my planet...or king." "Has been for the last two years. Then do it for your bed mate." Sakura started to sniff. "Coola?" Soar Jagaime sighed. "Your first?" "Zorn?" they sweat dropped. With teary eyes she glanced up. Nail pretended not to hear it. "Second." "Prince?" "Third..." They eyed her weary. A smile grew on her face as she closed her eyes and hugged Jagaime as if he were the king.
"Okay, I'll do it for him." Yasai eyed her weary. "Who is him?" he nearly smacked his head, what if he didn't want to know? "The king off-course I'm not a whore!" she glared at Yasai who gulped. WOA.... "Just checking..." he muttered. "I have a letter for you." She let go of Jagaime and hopped around Yasai like a kid.
"GIMME!!! is it from Diana, has too, OOH can't wait!" She gushed "And pictures." Yasai added. "Of the baby? Ohhh Nail you get to see the baby!" Nail closed his eyes. Hyper... She grasped the letter in her teeth and dragged them behind her across the ship to her cabin, and shoved them on the bed while she flopped in a chair and peeled off the first letter and handed it to Nail. Nail meanwhile returned from the hidden camera of Saucer and had put an empty room picture before it. He scanned the official letter with interested eyes. She then peeled off a copy.
"Pen is on the desk I think." she muttered absently. He nodded and waled over to sign the treaty. "Blah...blah...Hmm...Any one got a...ah stupid. She produced a small flame and held it under the letter. Smirking she saw the old ink vanish into the explanation of the gibberish language. Gotto love magic inc.
"The old lemon sap act. Smart." She mused, while the others eyed her stunned. Lemon? "AH" she cried out. "So easy. Okies. Hold on fella's." she rose and from under the bed retrieved a letter and handed it to them with Nails signed paper.
"Here you go. Thanks." They nodded as they rose. "Say Nail, how long do I have for roaming?"
"45 minutes." she nodded. "Well I have to finish my rounds. I'll see you in the canteen." She shooed them out as she and Nail finished their rounds. After he removed the picture again. He was good at that. Cause he was taller then she was.
They walked on as Sakura pulled one photo from her drapes and gasped. She stopped, making Nail nearly bump into her.
"Is something wrong?" he asked. As reply he had a picture shoved into his face while Sakura danced on her toes.
"THE BABY!!!" all he saw was what seemed to be a womb, a small speck with an red arrow pointing at it. She turned it around. 'the Chibi' was written in the same red colour. Sakura clutched it in bliss as she walked on air.
"Who was pregnant again?" Nail mused. "She is, but we're twins." She muttered in bliss. "If I have pain in my butt, she has pain someplace else in her body. Freaky but fun." "What will happen with the labour?" He wondered. She paused. "Err...I'll break my leg? I don't know and frankly, don't wanna. But if I feel the same, you'll comfort me...RIGHT?" she eyed him desperate.
"Off-course, and Dende as well. Even if he will be clueless as how to help." Sakura walked with the picture clasped to her chest again.
"Milady Sakura." A Namek-jin handed her a note and walked on. Eh? She opened it and read the text.
-Coola is trying to cause havoc on the third planet in the system of Vegeta- sei. In three days.-
"SHIT. Damned goddamned...grr..." they quickly finished their round and Nail sped after Sakura who made a run for it as they didn't have much time left. She skidded to a halt in the canteen. Located the two Saiyan's and ran over.
"Oh Yasai, I'm so glad you're here..." she bend over and kissed his cheeks as she stuffed three notes in his armour fluently. Even Jagaime didn't notice. Merely surprised at the attention Yasai received.
"I do hope my letter will be with Diana 'within' two days? She'll be so 'happy' to hear news from me as 'quick' as possible..." At first Yasai eyed her confused, then it dawned. A haste job? She nodded short and barely noticeable.
'I'm certain we can manage in 1 and a half day..." "She'll be so relieved...that way she can prepare a letter to all my friends!" Sakura chided. "Oh look at the time. Master Coola is expecting me. And boys. Don't worry Diana about tonight, alright?" they now both understood Diana was not one person but three. Bit complicated if you didn't follow, but when you did...clear as day. "Offcourse, we wouldn't say anything that could worry her." Jagaime replied.
She walked away and left them to return to Coola's side. Much as she hated it.
