This is another flashback chap…warning: rape scene in chap!
They had been sharing the cell for several months now. Though they never spoke of it, a strange friendship had formed between Celeb and Blade. They two had respect for one another. Blade helped Celeb come back to life, her strength was inspiring. It also helped to find out that Vegeta was alive and well, on a planet called Earth. Keno and Magenta were sparring while Blade slept, regaining her strength. Celeb felt a yank on her chains and the door opened. It was a tall man with black hair, dark blue, almost black eyes, and giant phoenix wings. She knew that face.
"You! You're the one who kidnapped us!" she shouted as he dragged her into an abandoned lab room.
The man smirked sadistically. "The name is Dr. Flare, it's been a long time… princess," he said, sarcasm dripping from his voice. He placed her on a lab table and chained her to it using Ki suppressers, draining her of her power.
Celeb watched him, trying not to show fear in her eyes. Flare… that's why Alec looked so familiar, he's related to this asshole.
Dr. Flare got out some instruments. "First we need to upgrade you… then we'll have some fun." Celeb bit her lip, she had inkling about what would happen next, but hoped against hope that she was wrong.

Blade's eyes flew open, something was wrong, but she didn't know what. "Where's Celeb?"
"They took her for more testing, a few hours ago," Magenta said. She was worried, she didn't like the fact that she was unable to protect Celeb.
"I have a bad feeling about this," Blade said, her tail swishing.
~-~-~-
Celeb gasped in pain. "What the fuck are you doing to me?"
"Increased your fertility and breeding rates… I don't want to wait nine months for my child."
"What are you talking about?"
Dr. Flare rubbed his hand against her cheek. "You are the chosen one, the only one who can bare Carawen."
"Carawen?"
"The child of Chaos." He pressed his hand against her thigh. "Our child."
"You mean…"
"I have chosen you for my queen. Together we will rule everything!"
There was a time when she would have submitted, but that time had long since passed. "Never!"
He ripped at her clothes. "Then I'll take you by force!"
She struggled as he misused her body and stripped her of her innocence. She screamed in agony as he pushed himself in and out of her. She struggled and her aura flashed in power as her hair turned gold and the suppressers broke. She shoved him off and grabbed what she could and ran. She ran for her life.
~-~-~-
She ran to the cell which was open due to a crony serving slop. She knocked the crony out easily. Celeb had since dropped out of SSJ. Magenta looked at her. "Princess, what-"
Celeb cut her off. "We need to leave. Now."
Blade looked at Celeb's torn clothes and red eyes. "What?"
"I said, we need to leave now!" She heard a sound behind her, and there was Alec. Fear filled Celeb's eyes; he looked so much like his father, too much.
"I-" but before he could say anything a flurry hit his chest, claws digging into his skin. "What did you do to her?" Blade snarled.
"Nothing! I came to help!"
Celeb looked up. "It's ok, Blade…" she muttered. "It's not him." Celeb looked fragile, like she had when Blade first met her, except her eyes… her eyes were like fire, not dull like before. Blade turned back into her human form and muttered an apology to Alec.
"We need to leave… can you get us a ship?" Magenta asked, helping keep Celeb - who looked like she was about to faint - up.
"Yeah, come on!" He ran and they followed. They were almost to his ship when they heard a voice shout, "Prisoners! Escaping! Kill!" Soldiers started attacking them from all sides. Blade and Keno went into their feline forms, swiping and killing anyone who came near them. Alec took his guns and shot anything and just about everything. Magenta went SSJ, blasting, punching, kicking, and doing whatever she could. Celeb just stood there, too numb to move. One of the soldiers aimed a blast at her and she couldn't get out of the way quick enough. It knocked her to the ground. And even if she could have gotten up she wouldn't have.
When the coast was clear Blade and Keno turned back to normal, and Alec put his guns away. Magenta and Blade helped Celeb up and led her to Alec's ship, the Blood Phoenix. "Celeb, what happened?" asked Keno, her eyes filled with concern. Celeb stayed silent, it was all she knew how to do in the long run, she had never been good with words, and even if she had wanted to, her voice wouldn't come. She was practically dead, and she didn't care anymore. She was so tired; her eyes were drooping. Celeb didn't want to sleep, though. The dreams… they would be worse tonight… she knew that. She hugged her knees and curled up in her seat. She had finally gone SSJ, but at what cost? What he had taken away from Celeb, she felt she could never get back. Pride, honor, dignity, strength, she was robbed of all these things. Despite herself she felt her eyes fill with tears; she cried for the very first time in her life. The others just watched her, not sure what to do or say. The beautiful, strong saiya-jin princess was broken down, and she didn't even know if she wanted to be fixed anymore.

"Alec, do you know what happened to her?" whispered Blade, being careful not to wake the finally-sleeping Celeb.
"No… but whatever it was… it must have been horrible."
Magenta looked up from Celeb's side. "Is she going to be ok?"
Alec sighed. "It's up to her… if she wants to she'll pull through."
"And if she doesn't?" Blade's voice shook with worry. Alec felt a shiver go up his spine and ruffled his wings. "Let's not think about that…"
"You're right," Blade said, squeezing his shoulder. "Let's not think about that." She quietly bent over and kissed his cheek. Alec blushed a bright red and looked over to her, but she had already curled against the far bulkhead, asleep. Alec sighed again and allowed himself a smile.
"Sweet dreams," he murmured, tucking his lab coat around her shoulders.
