Okay, first I want to thank everyone who reviewed. Now to answer some questions; draegon_fire, Allure's just interested in Vegeta getting attention. She's not jealous of Bulma. And I stopped, DARKANGELYAMIBAKURA, because everybody would then wonder what was to come next, which is gonna come now...



Chapter 4 Vegeta's Interruption

'That is quite enough woman!' Vegeta's voice sounded harsh. 'I will tell the rest before you turn this story into some sort of tragedie. I will NOT be pitied in any way. What she meant to say, was that we returned to work for Frieza and train together. Ultimately, we would find a way to destroy him. We found out that a brat named Kakkarot had been send here, but was never heard of again. We decided that his transport must have been late, so we send Radditz here to fetch you and train with us to avenge our race on Frieza.

You however, refused to come to us and since Radditz had his orders, he attacked. He knew we needed every saiyan we could get on this mission and he also felt very protective about you since you were his brother. More fool him, he would not have underestimated you if he hadn't gone soft at the thought of seeing a brother again, when he had felt the loss of his family keenly. We all would have given anything to get our kin back, but knew there was no way. So we accepted it and got rid of those weakening feelings. Still, that idiot felt something and all the good it did him was getting himself killed by the very thing he yearned....

I would have become the King of our noble race someday, with Allure on my right side as my foremost protector, but instead, we were reduced to less than slaves. We do not expect all of you to understand. You only thought of yourself and didn't even listen when Radditz came to claim you desperately. We now only seek to revenge Radditz, but seeing you, we realise you didn't remember. Not that any of you would ever understand the concept of honor. PFGH!' Disgusted, Vegeta turned his back on them. (A/N: he's not choking!).

Allure put her hand on his shoulder and gave it a gentle squeeze. 'As Vegeta said, we do not seek sympathy and we just felt that with the rotten life Radditz had had, he didn't deserve to die the way he did. He deserved a chance of justice as much as we do. I've gotten to know you and I think you didn't mean for things to happen the way they did, but they happened none the less and Frieza will be traveling to Namek in search of Dragonballs, which you no longer have. (A/N: I know it wasn't made clear before, but you all know Piccolo was killed by Vegeta. So he's dead. Very dead.)

We will be heading that way too, but the spacestorms will start soon (A/N: so blame me for wanting them to stick around on earth a little longer) and no one, not even Frieza, will be able to travel for the following two months. You also don't have a spaceship to travel with and you can hardly expect to crash in these little one-man cubicles. We will leave you now, so you can think of what is said. If your answer is 'no', than so be it, I will take these two and you'll never hear from us again.' And with these words, she towed Vegeta and Nappa out of the room, leaving Goku, Gohan, Krillin, Ox King, Master Roshi, Chi Chi and Bulma behind in a weighed silence.

Finally, Goku broke the spell that the story seemed to have made on them by saying: 'I had no idea. Radditz never said anything. That now makes sense though for they all seem too proud to plead and he was raised with them. I feel we have to help them, for they after all, are my people, even though I never knew my family. I have a family now, here, but somewhere out there walks someone who destroyed theirs. They never stood a chance, didn't you sense it. Vegeta stopped Allure from saying much, but I felt a pain from him that seemed to be screaming. He looked so haunted when she mentioned anything about his childhood. I kinda feel responsible for some of that pain.'

The others nodded in silent agreement. Just then, Allure stuck her head around the door and said: 'I've brought Nappa and Vegeta to our rooms. Vegeta would not have been happy if he knew what I'm about to say, but please consider this; HE was the one Frieza hurt the most. He was humiliated at every turn, beaten at every corner. Always he was shown how inferior Frieza and his henchmen felt him to be. For someone with his sense of pride and responsibility, that is worse than a deathblow.

They also let him to believe for many years that he'd lost me. His final word to his father was that he would keep me safe when we were taken by Frieza. His whole sense of selfesteem and duty must have been ripped to shreds only for Frieza's delight. Frieza's sole pleasure is to bring pain and terror into this universe. If he was allowed to continue on his path of destruction those emotions might well be the last all races may ever know. I would never beg for myself, but for him I would do anything, so Please, will you help us?' She fell to her knees as tears started streaming out of her eyes.

Each seemed to resemble the losses they had felt; their crushed innocence, lost childhood and family, all the beatings, the humiliation, the sense of helplessness, and all the times she wished she could turn back time and heal the broken souls of her remaining friends. But with the tears there also seemed to be determination, a sole confiction to make justice come to pass and somewhat sooth the wounds on the souls of her friends, by ending this tyrant's existence.

They felt humbled by the display of this proud warrior-woman before them on her knees, begging for her friends. Suddenly, Vegeta appeared and kneeled before her. They saw something very much like pain cross his features as he gently pushed back her hair and wiped away her tears. Kissing her cheeks he sat on his ankels and said: 'I don't blame you, for there is nothing you could have done. All that would have happenend is that you would have become like us. (A/N: he will return to himself now, don't worry; I know cranky Vegeta is cute).

NOW BLOODY WELL DRY YOUR TEARS WOMAN, YOU ARE CRYING FOR EMPTY SHELLS. A TRUE WARRIOR DOES NOT BEG OR CRY. WE HAVE NO FEELINGS. TO LIVE OR DIE IS THE SAME TO NAPPA AND ME, SO COME AND LET THEM BE. IF THEY DECIDE TO HELP US IT WILL BE THEIR CHOICE, BUT I WOULD SOONER BE DEAD THEN TO BEG.' With this, he turned around with her wrist cruelly in his, but he was stopped by Goku's voice

'Consider it done.'

All Vegeta did was give him a single nod before he jerked Allure's wrist and walked outside into the rain, which had started pouring. Even the sky seemed to cry for the lost past of these warriors. They all watched, while their features grew shadier with every pace they took and they could almost hear Vegeta's reprimands.

They then decided that they would go and help these proud warriors of a now lost race.
