"Prince Vegeta..." At first, the voice sounds soothing, motherly. "Prince
Vegeta..." Yet, as soon as the realism of the world strikes him, Vegeta awakens
to the sound of the computerized voice. "Prince Vegeta, we are nearing
Torinosu's orbit."
"Very well." He raises up in his seat, looking out the pod hole window,
seeing the bright green planet they are approaching. This shouldn't be too
difficult of a mission. Shame... I'm in the mood for a challenge.
The three pods stream into the orbit of the planet, moving at incredible
velocities and plummetting toward the planet's suface.
On the planet...
"Mistress! Mistress!" A lanky, red-skinned male runs into the room.
"Mistress, we have detected three space pods entering our atmosphere! They
should be landing at any moment!" He comes skidding to a stop, falling into
attention, and looking at the back of the thin, short woman standing in front of
him.
The woman turns around and looks at him with her emerald green eyes. Her red
braided hair flings around as she turns, going down over her shoulder and
stretching down to her tiny waist. "I see, Hato. I suppose I shall meet our
visitors in person." A small smirk crawls over her lips. "Rally a small group of
fighters. Just to be precautious."
The man nods, watching the woman's body light up with a sparkling,
translucent glow before disappearing completely.
The pods crash into the planet, leaving gaping craters covering the land.
Clouds of compressed air billow up from the space pods as the doors lower to the
ground. The three saiyans step out of their respective pods and out of the
craters.
They raise their hands to shield their eyes from the overbearing light
coming from the sun. Each take notice to the incredibly warm temperature of the
atmosphere. Vegeta looks up into the sky, seeing the large sun, blaring brightly
down onto the planet.
"This planet looks too peaceful, wouldn't you say, Vegeta?" Nappa smirks,
crossing his overly muscled arms across his chest, as his eyes adjust to the new
light.
Vegeta nods to him, lowering his eyes and surveying the land. He touches the
scouter over his eye, trying to pick up the power levels of this planet's
inhabitants. "Pathetic. Hardly any even reach 1,000." He rolls his eyes back a
moment before the scouter starts going wild from a sudden explosion of power. He
quickly turns around to see the red skinned, red haired woman standing there,
staring at each of them, her eyes shining a bright green and her dress picking
up the rays of the sun, giving off a metallic glow.
Nappa and Raditz both, turn around and look over her, not understanding how
one with such high power levels that surpasses the range on their scouters can
be one of the people of this planet.
"Welcome to Torinosu. I hope you've come here with no ill intentions..." A
half grin curls on her lips, sensing just how strong these three are and knowing
her own power level.
"Who are you?" Vegeta stands his ground, staring at her, knowing how rare a
female is with that power level.
"My name is Suzaku, and I am the Guardian of this planet." She steps closer
to them, the level of her power decreasing, as the glow of her body dims to
nothing. "Now, who are you and what business brings you here?"
"We're Saiyans, and we've come here to," he pauses for a moment, "discuss
the future of your planet." Vegeta smirks to her, crossing his arms over his
chest as Suzaku steps up right in front of him. For him, its a rare occassion
that he is able to stand taller to someone, giving him even more confidence in
himself.
Nappa and Raditz chuckle to themselves about this woman being the "guardian"
of the planet. To them, she looks so very fragile and delicate; easy to crush in
the palm of their hands.
Suzaku's eyes glance over towards them for a brief moment with a cold glare,
then back to Vegeta. "Let us continue this discussion back in the city. But let
me warn you, any attempt to harm my people, that is not in self defense, will be
dealt with severely. Understood?" Her tone conveys the seriousness of her
threat.
Vegeta continues to smirk at her as he nods. "We'll be on our best
behaviour."
Suzaku takes a few steps back from Vegeta, putting her hands together,
letting her index fingers touch as well as her thumbs, making a diamond-shaped
figure with her hands and pointing down towards the ground. A bright irridescent
disc forms underneath them and rises up as Suzaku's hands move up. The disk
continues to move up till it covers them completely, causing them to disappear.
