A Lost Race, A New Love, and a Damned Soul By Altahajin Princess Emerald

Chapter 1

------------------------------------------------------------

My life is in shambles...my wounds will always be slashed open again and again. I thought to myself while walking down the Vejiitasei Royal Palace. It had been almost 3 weeks since the Aisujin Army ravaged our world. I am Jadean Penndragon, niece to King Vegeta and consort to Lord Radditz of the East Hemisphere. Our whole problem started with a simple misunderstanding, Frieza thought we were becoming too strong. The spineless bastard just sent a whole battalion of troops to wipe the Saiyajin race off the face of the universe. We put up one hell of a fight; our lower-class warriors alone took out the half of their elite fighters. King Vegeta underestimated the power of Frieza and now there are only a handful of Saiyajins left, hiding in a bunker beneath the Royal Palace.

We now search out a new home for our diminishing people. Let's just say that it isn't going very well. Almost all of our computers and navigation systems were destroyed in the attack. I turned around and look at the devastation that Frieza has caused to our home world. We will get our well-deserved revenge, that's a sure thing. Our once proud race, fearless and strong, had been reduced to going into hiding to avoid Frieza's attacks. I suppose you can say we got what we deserved, we also ravaged worlds and annihilated entire civilizations. I guess the gods thought it was pay back time.

Since our race is now dying out, we are now in search of the only planet with lifeforms capable of interbreeding with us. There are also rumors of them having magickal wish-granting stones called Dragonballs. They are said to grant any wish you want, this will be a great help to replenish our race, but in the mean time, we will try to interbreed with the Earthlings.

I am still walking down the compound's hall until I come to the door to my uncle's quarters. I knock softly on the door.

"Come in." The unusually soft voice of me uncle says to me. He has been so depressed these past couple weeks, I am really starting to worry about him. Our technicians are working around the clock to get the spaceship ready for our voyage to Earth. They are doing all they can, but it does not seem to be fast enough for my uncle.

I open the door and look at the fallen King of the Saiyajins. His skin is a pale white, and getting paler by the day. His hair is graying and his eyes are sunken. He reminds me of the stories the nursemaids told to me when I was a child; stories of walking corpses and the undead warriors of old.

He looks at me and says, "Yes, Jadean? Something wrong?"

"Uncle, you need to eat something. I also have news of the spaceship, it will be done within the week." This seems to comfort him some.

"That is good, any word of the Prince?"

"Yes, Uncle. He is still under Frieza's 'protection'. He won't let him go until you surrender me to him." Most of the Saiyajins would have thought that my uncle would gladly hand me over to Frieza for Prince Vegeta, but my uncle is not the cold hearted bastard he seems to be most of the time. The truth is, he cares for me like I was his own daughter. I am half Saiyajin and half Altahajin. The reason we are going to Earth, instead of the Altahajin planet, is because Frieza go to it before us. That damned Aisujin will pay for what he's done to our race.

"I will never hand to you over to that bastard, we will find some way to get my son back. Frieza will soon know the pain he causes us and the rest of the universe. You and Sullion will go into Frieza's headquarters and find where he has hidden Prince Vegeta." Uncle said to me with a malicious grin. I looked at him strangely and wonder what he could be thinking of doing once we got to Earth.
