Frail Peace

Disclaimer: Yes, yes, I admit; I was stalked for years by the same women who thought I was Akira Toriyama. Do you know how scary that is? Especialy since I'm a girl.......

Prologue This story starts after the appearance of Radditz, but before the coming of Vegeta and Nappa. My character, Allure, is in this fanfic aswell as a few others and of course the original characters ;) Things about new characters will be explained in the fanfic or afterword. The normal speechlines of the movie and series will not all be repeated because we all now were such big fans that we can dream them. Enjoy!

Also, there have been changes made to this story, hopefully made to improve it :)

Chapter 1 The Arrival of the Saiyans

Deep in space a woman rests in her spacepod alongside her comrads. She shivers as the desolation of the future hits her in one of her visions. Oh yes, the future holds many posibilities and many difficulties to overcome. She stares into the endless depts of space as she contemplates what to do and where to go in life. The stars seem to dance in an ancient play of life, round and round and round, never ending. The woman sights and speaks to herself: "Even destiny doesn't know what destiny is untill it finally arrives........."

Three pods smashed into the surface of earth, creating a huge crater on impact. The people in the city came running to see what these were, only to see three saiyans slowly rise from the crater, like a copy of the birth of ancient Gods.

Vegeta no Ouji, his henceman Nappa and Allure, another elite.

Laughing maniacally, Nappa destroyed the city for what he sees as fun....

Clicking her tongue indignantly, Allure watches this display of power as the air is filled by the screams of terror of those who used to live a peacefull life here.

But all things must come to an end and so she does not offer a word of regret, even though Vegeta 'explains' to Nappa why this is not right; he could have destroyed a Dragonball along with those 'inferior beings'!

What is done however, can not be undone and Vegeta and Nappa flew towards the largest energy-sources on earth.

Allure however, chose to do some exploring before she would join them....

Nappa and Vegeta henceforth proceded in the direction of our earthguardians without true knowledge of what they would be dealing with.

~The battle between Vegeta and Nappa and the earthguardians will procede as in the series. For those who do not know these; Vegeta and Nappa first produce six saibamen to fight the earthlings etc. Yamcha is killed first by a saibaman, followed by Tien and Chaotzu getting killed by Nappa and Nappa being killed by Vegeta (although not in this story) for losing to the ever- late-being Goku who found a severely beaten Gohan, Piccolo and Krillin. He gives them senzubeans and they fight Vegeta...... We will now follow Allure on her trip~

Flying over islands and cities Allure saw many people working and playing. Her scouter allowed her contact with Vegeta and Nappa as well as her telepathy. She spotted a large building to which many people seemed to go and she so touched down in an alley nearby.

She then went to the building which turned out to hold a variety of shops.

We can of course not deny ourselves the little pleasures that give us joy and therefor Allure indulged herself as Nappa had.... only her delight was shopping.

As she looked around she came upon one which seemed to sell a peculiar sort of cilinders. The doorsign said 'Capsule-shop'. Going in she discovered they sold these 'capsules' in all kinds of colors and numbers. Picking one up she examined it, wondering what on EARTH people would want with these.

On asking the shopkeeper about them he explained they could hold a number of items in very compact spaces. Fascinated, she bought a house, a car (AN:/ she didn't really need one, but hey, think of how many things we buy that we don't really need.) and a few empty capsules to fill with things she had yet to buy such as clothing.

She decided to go on a major shoppingspree (AN:/ I know; but hey, a mall, come on, would you be able to resist? Especially with unlimited funds!).

Her beautifull amber eyes shone as she bought her outfits (AN:/ people that hate discriptions of this sort, SORRY, but I couldn't resist. I'm even gonna elaborate later!).

She began selecting stuff that went with her complexion. She bought a lot of black to bring out her red hair and a large amount of skirts, dresses, underwear and much, much more.

She even bought some stuff for Nappa and Vegeta.

After a couple of hours she was satisfied with the hundreds of clothes she'd bought and decided to rest (and eat) for a while.

It was during this rest that she felt Nappa's power go down. Vegeta seemed to be fine though, so that would be nothing to worry about. So she cut her rest short and went on a search for accessories. Just when she was paying for all this stuff she felt Vegeta's ki drop. (AN:/ yes, she's psychic and can feel ki. Of course shecan also fight).

She packed everything she bought in a rush (hey, If you're a woman you would know; We don't leave things behind!!) and sped off to check on her friends.

Vegeta's ki was dropping farther and farther as she approached the site where our heroes fought. She flew faster than she had ever flown, cursing herself all the way for not being there for her friends.

Vegeta, meanwhile, was being crushed by Gohan in Oozaru-form. All the Z- fighters were now indisposed (or dead) as well as Vegeta. He however, knew he had Allure as backup. He could feel her approach through their link.

But just then Krillin appeared above him brandishing Jajirobi's sword, ready to kill him. Looking up at him, Vegeta grimaced at the thought that Allure would be too late by this little time.... but it was good to know he would have his revenge even if he died.

But then, as in a miracle, Kakarott spoke and asked his friend not to kill. Vegeta smirked at himself as he felt Allure drawing nearer and nearer.

Krillin had dropped the sword and had fallen. At that moment Allure landed next to Vegeta's battered body and fell to her knees. Gently she lifted his head into her lap and examined his wounds. When she looked up at Krillin he saw the fire burning in the amber pupils and he backed away. She stood up and lifted Vegeta, then she motioned for Krillin to follow her.

He did, barely having breath left to stand, let alone to fight this mysterious new saiyan. She carried Vegeta over to where Goku lay and gently laid him down next to his rival. She then went to retrieve Nappa and Gohan, laying them all down next to the others. Krillin had sunk to his knees next to the battered Goku who's only worries were for his son.

Then Bulma's jet appeared. Seeing only a female standing next to a battered looking Krillin they assumed that she was merely a bystander and made her landing.

Chi Chi of course, came running out of the plane screaming for her husband and son, followed more slow and silently by Bulma and the others.

But as Chi Chi neared the fallen men, Allure moved in front of her and glared. Chi Chi however, didn't pay the slightest attention and suddenly found herself on her back in the dust, an angry female looming over her.

Allure's tail chose exactly that moment to uncurl and swat playfully behind her giving everyone the scare of a lifetime. 'Who are you people?'

The sensual, yet angry sound of Allure's voice shook them and all shivered at the fire burning in the amber pupils as she kneeled down next to Vegeta and softly ran her hand through his unruly hair.

Vegeta cracked open an eye at this and glared at her, accomplishing nothing but a returned staring. 'Why didn't you kill them all?' His hoarse voice brought tears to her eyes.

'Ssh, everything wil be fine,' her voice trembled at the sight of his bruised face. 'I have to take care of you and Nappa first. They are not important. And besides,' looking at the trembling people who promptly backed away, 'you know I don't swat flies.'

'I still say you should kill them,' Vegeta's smirk grew wider as he watched the earthlings tremble. 'Vegeta!' Allure countered playfully, 'Stop scaring them!' 'I'm your Ouji, woman, so you should bow down to me and do as I say!'

'You can restart this attitude tomorrow! Now I'm going to take care of you and that's rather difficult bowing down without creating a hernia. I'll bow down to you tomorrow, but not before! You also know perfectly well that I'm not going to kill anyone today so you might as well drop the act while I talk to these creatures.' At this she turned and stared at the creatures who were huddled together and staring at them.

The pig jumped back as she approached, but some old guy was looking like he was measuring her sizes. One glare however, solved this and she turned to the women of the group.

One of them was looking longingly at the one called Kakarott and the other was staring at the battered form of her Ouji. They seemed relatively normal apart from the staring so she circled them and looked them up and down. They noticed and looked at her warily. One of them produced a pouch of some sort and came nearer when she did nothing in reaction.

Bulma carefully walked to the beautifull saiyan-female clutching her med- kit.

'My friend need these so I would like to take care of them.'

'It being?' The sensual, teasing tones made her shiver, but her friends lives could be at stake here, so she came a little bit closer still.

'These are bandages and such; they help the healingprocess. Can I help them? They can't do any harm to you now...'

The saiyan female nearly choked of laughter at this. 'You think I'm scared of an attack? Sweety, I could take all of them on, including my friends with my hands tied behind my back. But you can give them those things if you give them to my friends too. It sounds like those things beat a regentank.' (A/N: because if she put Vegeta in a regentank he would heal too fast and just return to his normal cocky, I'm-the-biggest-bad-assed- saiyan-in-the-Universe-attitude and try to kill everybody, of course accomplishing nothing as we all very well understand).

Bulma looked at her and then at her friends. Not having any other options left she handed the bag to the saiyan female who took it.

'Thanks,' the female said, 'I'm Allure by the way and these are Nappa and Vegeta no Ouji.' she proceded taking out the bandages and began helping her friends as wel as our earth-heroes. Bulma soon joined her in this task and they worked side by side for a while.

Vegeta, after being bandaged, immediately stood and crossed his arms in his normal pose smirking at the Z-fighters, although a little less limber. Nappa slowly sat up looking slightly dumb (AN:/ as in dumber than usual, hihi). Kakarott immediately smiled at everyone and winched as Chi Chi started fussing over him and Gohan.

Allure felt Vegeta beginning to charge energy and immediately jumped in front of him scowling 'Vegeta no Ouji! What's you're problem anyway? You know we need Kakarott on our quest and yet you and Radditz keep behaving like a bunch of babboons. Are you out of your mind or has arrogance finally melted your brain?! Whatever the case STOP IT THIS INSTANT!'

Everyone was staring at her by now untill Bulma started laughing. Allure eyed her suspiciously untill she explained: 'Oh! It's just so funny to see someone that arrogant getting an ear full. But hey, you can all come and stay at Capsule Corp. My family owns it and we can spare three rooms easily.'

'We'll just need two.'

Everyone stared at her. 'I sleep with Vegeta of course. I always do. I'm his bodyguard afterall and have to protect him always even as it is unlikely anyone would be able to harm him. And I take care of him during the night.'

Bulma wondered at the sudden despair that had gripped herat these words. She couldn't help but to feel slightly, no very jealous of Allure.

Allure however, didn't notice because Vegeta seemed to have gotten dizzy and had been in the process of falling when she had caught him. Holding his battered form gently to her chest, she sat down and peered into his bruised face. When his eyes began to flutter she smiled down at his painfull smirk and kissed him lightly on the forehead before standing up again with him in her arms.

She then smiled at a slightly sick-looking Bulma. 'Lead the way to.....' her voice faltered when she saw the fighters stare at her, 'What! Don't worry, we won't attack you yet; we will wait untill we are recovered and then we can talk.'

Bulma meanwhile, had turned and let the way back to her ship. All of them entered and they took off in the direction of Capsule Corp.

End of chapter one. Hope you liked it. All reactions are welcome, even flames since it's really cold outside.

By the way, thanks to Chas and SatansFlower for beta-reading!
