Well remember when I said that Chapter 11 was the end of that little segment? Well I decided not to have this as a separate DBU mini story and make it part of the main story. It's a bit of background filler on the evil that destroyed Earth and ravaged Namek. I assure you though that the next chapter is four years later.

This update was sooner than I expected; it was a thirty-minute wonder. My block must be, umm, un-blocking.

CHAPTER 12

PLANET HADES

The sounds of footsteps echoed in the long, quiet hallway. Small sallow colored glowing orbs rested on tall spiky poles, mounted along the hall. The lone man followed the pale light to a large dark room. The only light came from high above where several orbs were clustered, hanging precariously from the ceiling. To the far side of the room was a tall throne made of bone and a black metallic substance. A fierce looking creature was sculpted on the top of the throne, its small evil eyes made of cold emerald. Beside the chair stood a young looking alien female with pale skin, even more pale in the sickly light. On her left arm was the tattoo that showed she belonged to the royal harem. She gently fanned a dark figure on the throne. He was cast in shadows, but an aura of despair and death seem to surround him.

"Ahh, Doru you have returned. Was the mission a success?" The shadowy figure asked the man who now stood before him.

The general stood up a bit straighter, a small glint of light flickering faintly off one of his medals. "Yes your excellence, we have captured the crystals and data from Planet Earth. Kurayami was a success as you said it would be. We have also received word that the raid on Planet Namek was successful also, and all that we needed has been retrieved with minimal loss and casualties, though we did lose a ship."

"The ship is nothing, it can always be replaced, and so can those who are in it. Where is Kurayami now?"

Doru cleared his throat. "Your excellence, his previous host was destroyed during the mission yet he managed to claim another one. Unfortunately the host's will is very strong and may take quite some time until it is ready to accept Kurayami. However my liege, this may work to our advantage. The host belongs to an interesting race that is quite strong and powerful. We brought back several members of the species plus a few other specimens to test on. Our scientists believe that it is possible to genetically create a hy-breed race using these creatures DNA structures. The technology isn't with us right now, but," Doru paused a moment, "we might have it soon from the information I have gathered. With these new 'super' soldiers we will be able to conquer the universe over much quicker than previously calculated."

A long deadly silence filled the room after Doru's speech. The light above seemed to dim. Doru, underneath his cool collected face, was quivering in fear. His master could destroy him without a second thought now that he had a new power to be soon under his sway. Doru was startled by the evil laugh that came from the figure on the throne.

"Very well then Doru, we are please with your findings." Doru sighed with relief. "However, Doru, WHERE is Kurayami?"

"Kurayami is in the Omega chamber awaiting his treatment. I expected that you might want to work on him as soon as possible." The figure on the throne laughed again.

"Ah, Doru, you know my impatience well. Indeed I will go there soon. Have the prisoners that you have collected be sent to the sen'n? chambers and have them placed where you deem necessary and then report back to me. You are excused."

Doru bowed and began to walk out of the room. He had just reached the door before his entire body erupted in pain. "Master! Why!"

The shadowy figure spoke softly in Doru's mind. "Doru, never second guess me again unless you want to spend the rest of your short pathetic life in agony."

"I apologize excellence, it will never happen again." Doru groaned out loud. The figure smiled and release Doru from his power. Doru got up from the ground and bowed back at his lord.

"Doru" The voice in his said again. Doru heard a small scream escape from the purple lips of the female that once stood by his master and he could hear her collapse on the ground with a soft thud. "Fetch me another toy from the harem, this time make it that enchanting sister of yours with those lovely crystal eyes." Doru shuddered inwardly but bowed to his master once again and continued to walk down the long hallway to follow out his orders.

The figure on the throne turned his attention to the crumpled body of the alien girl, her body turning into vapor as he drained her life force dry. 'Soon I will get my revenge on the universe and that brat Bibidi, wherever he is hiding.'
