Chapter 4 The Damned
Berthana checked over her list one more time. She had everything she needed for her trip to Vegeta-sei. An hour ago she had been informed that Camila and ChiChi had boarded and were waiting for her arrival. Sighing she grabbed her suitcase and began packing. She had only one hour left and hadn't packed a thing. She had only gotten herself and Bulma a bath and dressed,but that was it. Gathering every piece of clothing she claimed she put it in her suitcases and placed Bulma's small clothes in her own little baby gap bag.
When all their clothes were packed she capsuled them and placed them in a briefcase full of capsules. 'I hope that's everything.' Grabbing the suitcase and Bulma's carseat she left her only home heading for what would be her new beginning.
When she stepped outside there was a slight breeze and a clouded sky. It seemed as if the earth new of her departure and was somber. Looking away she began her journey to where the spacecraft was to departure. As she walked along she had to hold all her wits as she passed thousands of rotting corpses. She looked down at Bulma and saw her lip primp and tears fall from her eyes, but she didn't wail. She just cried silently. Berthana knew her baby understood what had happened and was mourning over the loss of a peaceful race.
Soon they arrived to the docking bay and were greeted by Camila and ChiChi. "Berthana!!!" she screamed. Berthana smiled brightly and placed Bulma's carseat down to embrace her only friend. "Look at you, it seems like ages since we left,'' she said. Berthana nodded her agreement,but then turned serious. "Where's King and Prince Vegeta?'' she asked disgust in her utterance. Camila frowned. "He's already aboard as well some other sayians,'' she spoke looking toward the ship. Berthana looked away from the ship in disgust. Camila looked back to her friend and smiled saddly. "I guess this is our new found future,'' she said. Berthana sighed shakily, trying her best not to cry. Camila placed a hand on her friends shoulder for comfort. "Berthana, while I was away did king Vegeta send you a note or letter asking you certain questions?'' she asked. Berthana looked at her friend confusedly,but nodded. Camila bit her lip and looked down. "Did he ask if he could use your body?'' she asked again. Berthana looked at her, worry written all over her face.
"Yes. Why?''
"Because he asked me the same questions."
"What did you say?''
"I told him I would never stoop so low as to pleasure him after what he had done to my husband,'' Camila spoke shakily. Berthana looked down. "I said the same thing…then he said he would take me by force,'' she said turning away from her. Camila looked up to her friend sympathy written all over her face. "Oh Berthana, I'm really sorry. I wish there was something I could do--,'' she trailed off as Berthana spoke. "It's alright. If he uses my body that's fine,but he will never have my soul,'' she spoke sure of herself. Camila nodded and was about to speak when she was interrupted by a sayian guard. "Excuse me ma ladies,but the king has insisted you board the ship so we can head for Vegeta-sei,'' he spoke. Berthana and Camila looked him over once then nodded. Camila grabbed ChiChi's carseat and entered the ship,but Berthana stayed behind to speak with the guard. "Excuse me sir, um… could you please tell me your name?'' she asked politely. The guard nodded. "My name is Bardock and I'm the kings best elite soldier, and this is my son Kakarott,'' he said mentioning the baby on his hip. Berthana looked to the baby first noticing it. "Hello Kakarott,'' she cooed to the baby. Kakarott smirked and then giggled at her.
Bardock smirked and nodded towards Bulma. "Is she your brat?'' he asked. Berthana ignored his rude way of referring to her child and nodded. "Yes. Her name is Buruma,but for short Bulma,'' she said. Bardock nodded then looked to something that looked like a watch. "Well she should be getting on the ship now ma lady or we'll be left behind,'' he said. Berthana had one more question to ask before they entered. "Bardock, before we enter I wanted to know if everyone on Vegeta-sei were vampires?'' she asked grabbing Bulma's carseat. Bardock shook his head. "No. Only King Vegeta and Prince Vegeta are vampires because of Queen Akaisha,'' he said not noticing the glare Berthana gave at the mention of that wench. "Well it was nice talking to you Bardock, good bye,'' she said. He nodded his farewell and watched as she decended upon the ramp. 'You have no idea what you've gotten into little one."
As Berthana entered the ship she was astounded at its size. It was rather small on the outside, but the inside looked like a castle. There was a downstairs wing and an upstairs wing, which she assumed to be the kings, and a large kitchen with shelves full of food. She looked back towards the rooms and saw names on the doors. She searched around and found her name and Bulma's. She looked around for the kings, but it was no where to be found. Sighing with relief she went into her and Bulma's room. It was rather fitting for her and Bulma. It wasn't to small and it wasn't to big either, it was just right. In the far corner she saw two chairs and a sign above it that read: LAUNCHING SEATS, which meant they had to use these when they were to take off. Deciding to tour more, she strapped the sleeping Bulma in the launching seat and looked around. They had a very small and cozy kitchen meant for two and walk-in closet. She saw another door and walked inside to find a large queen size bed and a small craddle right next to it.
Nodding her acceptance she waltz back into the living area. Her merry thoughts were interrupted by the booming of the intercom. "May I have your attention please. If you don't wish to be squished the pull of the gravity please take your 'launching seats'…this recording is not for the king,'' it spoke. Berthana grunted in disgust and took her seat. Soon the ship began to rock indicating they were taking off.
The ship rocked back and forth for several minutes til it finally calmed down. Looking out the window Berthana saw as her only home Chikyuu/Earth disappeared into the darkness. She unbuckled her seat belt,as she did Bulma, and walked to the window and peered outside. All there was, was darkness. There wasn't a single thing floating about and no planets.
Feeling very tired and hungry all of a sudden Berthana walked over to the refrigerator and glanced inside. There was loads of meats,vegetable, and fruits in the refrigerator. 'How do they get all this stuff in here?' she wondered. She then decided to prepare herself some roasted pork,fried noodles,and rice. She had to eat a lot so that the milk would fill her breast and it would be enough to satisfy Bulma. After her little thought she began to prepare her meal. When it was complete she sat down and began inhaling her meal very slowly. After her meal was eaten she went over to where Bulma still lay asleep and picked her up. 'I guess I'll feed her when she wakes up.' She suggested. Pulling the blankets back she laid Bulma down and covered her up. Humming she walked out the room deciding to take a tour of the ship. She walked into the hallway to find everyone fast asleep. She hadn't gone far when she heard a little wailing sound in the room upstairs. Smiling lightly she walked up the long staircase until she came to a room labeled Vegeta. At first she thought it was King Vegeta's until she looked around and saw a door farthest to the right with the name King Vegeta written in silver letters.
Deciding to check in the room she opened the door and peered inside. Prince Vegeta lay on his bed kicking his legs in the air and whining. Walking over to his little crib she looked inside and saw baby Vegeta with his lip primped and his whole face was red. 'Poor thing,' she thought. Searching around the room she looked for anything that would quiet the baby,but found nothing but a pacifier . She placed it to his lips she sighed with relief as he began to suck on it. As if looking for milk to come out he sucked harder then his face turned red and he spit it out.
Wailing even louder Baby Vegeta stretched his arms and screamed. Berthana sighed and picked him up in her arms and rocked him. He quieted down slightly,but just to a soft normal cry. Sitting in a rocking chair she began to rock slowly. Soon Vegeta was quiet and slowly began to open his eyes. Berthana gasped at the resemblence. He had the same cold malicious stare as King Vegeta . He had his same complexion, but was a little dark do to his mother having a very beautiful tan. 'I wonder where she tans at?' she laughed at her own little joke. Vegeta looked at her and sucked on his lip indicating he was hungry. Berthana searched around for a bottle, but couldn't find one. She looked down Vegeta and sighed. "Little one, there's no bottle for you,'' she said looking into his dark onyx eyes. Vegeta turned and grabbed for her breast. She gasped and pulled away making Vegeta primp his lip. He opened his mouth to have a cry come out, but nothing came. Berthana rocked him groaned she had no choice. She undid her shirt and bra and turned her breast towards him and placed it in his mouth. Immediately he began to nurse.
Berthana laid her head against the chair and rocked back and forth.
1 hour later
Berthana was beginning to worry because Vegeta hadn't stopped nursing yet and she had to save some from Bulma. "Why do you eat so much little one?'' she questioned mainly herself. From out of no where a voice spoke. "It's because of his race. Sayians have very large appetites,'' the voice concluded. Berthana jumped with a start as King Vegeta came out the shadows. She glared and turned back to Vegeta. "What do you want?'' she asked. Vegeta chuckled evilly. "Don't worry onna, I'm not here for pleasure…yet,'' he said smirking corrupedly. Berthana growled and turned away. "Then what did you want?'' she asked again. King Vegeta pulled up a chair and sat down. "Can't I just come and admire your beauty?'' he asked. Berthana shrugged. Soon Vegeta stopped nursing and snuggled into chest. Berthana smiled sweetly and the little bundle. Even though he has never smiled she knew he was a good baby. King Vegeta watched contently as Berthana stared at his one and only son. "Berthana are you sure you don't want to take up the job of being Vegeta's mother, I would greatly appreciate it?'' he asked. Berthana looked at him as if he lost his mind. "Are you out of your fucking mind?'' she asked. King Vegeta was taken aback by her harsh language and tone of voice,but soon ignored it. "Why not?'' "Because Vegeta, I have my own little girl to take care of, I don't have time for two babies,'' she spoke quietly.
King Vegeta nodded. "Fine, I'll just have one of my concubines who have had children raise him. But I must ask that you make bottles for him every once in a while,'' he commanded. Berthana thought about it then looked at the small infant nesseled in her embrace, and just couldn't say no. "Alright but only for awhile until you find a concubine who has fresh milk to spare. You should find someone in 2 months for that is the last time I will feed him,'' she said standing. King Vegeta nodded his agreement and stood as well. Placing a soft kiss to her neck he left into the darkness from which he came. Berthana gently laid him down and walked to the door. She turned around and smiled to the little bundle. "Good night dark prince she mumbled before walking back to her chambers.
When she arrived she found Bulma still fast asleep so she decided to take a shower.
One hour later.
Berthana walked out the bathroom after freshing up and unwrapped her towel walking to her drawer she grabbed her night clothes and underwear. After placing her clothes on she climbed into bed and laid beside Bulma. Deciding she was really sleepy yet she grabbed a book from the bedside table and clicked on the lamp. It was a book on Sayian History. Becoming very interested she opened up to the first chapter.
Chapter 1 The Discription of Sayians.
She read that not all sayians looked alike. The only characteristics they shared were they're black hair, dark onyx eyes,and brown tails. After she read the first chapter which was 28 pages long , she began to feel a little tired and decided she should sleep now. Clicking of the lamp she turned towards Bulma and placed her hand across the small of her back and fell into a deep sleep.
* Dream *
Berthana was in castle with white walling and white things everywhere. Everywhere she turned it was white. All of a sudden things got darker and something began to appear in front of her . Her eyes widened as a older Bulma and Vegeta approached her in a warm embrace. She sighed deeply as a gust of wind engulped the room closing her eyes she relaxed, when she opened them the whole room had turned white again. Vegeta had on dark black armor while Bulma had on a white and silver gown with her hair falling down to her waist in long waves. Vegeta's hair was long also, but his swept up into a flame with small of brown to it. "Bulma?" she asked. Bulma nodded and smiled. "Vegeta?'' she asked also. Vegeta only nodded, but kept his frown. Berthana looked down and gasped. She had no idea it would be Bulma Vegeta choose as his mate. "Do not think this will come to be it is only possible possible possible,'' the voice faded out until it disappeared all together. Berthana looked up and was startled to find Bulma now wearing a black dress with an enoumously large split. Berthana closed her eyes as another light engulfed her,but this time when she opened her eyes she was surrounded by clouds. She then looked down and saw Vegeta –sei and knew she was dead. Closing her eyes her tear flowed from her eye and landed on Vegeta-sei.
* end of dream *
Berthana awakened to a jolt as the ship began to rock. Looking out the window and saw they were landing. "Are we on Vegeta-sei?'' she wondered aloud. She climbed out of bed and went through the door running to Camila. "Camila, are we on Vegeta-sei?'' she asked her head. "No, we're on the planet Buru-sei. We're just getting supplies so you can go back to sleep,'' she said walking off. Berthana watched her leave before entering the room again. Climbing back into bed she sighed before falling into a dreamless slumber.
