Chapter 5
You're What???
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


My bastard of a mate got me pregnant. Four months after I dumped Kakarotto at Radditz's feet, he got me pregnant. I'm the only one who knows right now, besides the Chikyuujin physician who examined me. That's right, a Chikyuujin physician. My uncle was able to successfully take over Earth. This planet, one-tenth the size of Vejiitasei, was taken over in less than twenty-four hours. Radditz was right, they are weaklings. I kept pondering why the Earthlings survived this long and my race didn't. Everyone I had ever known and cared about on Planet Mnemosyne was taken from me in a single moment. I now carried a child who was three-fourths Saiyajin and one-fourth Altahajin. There are only 3 full-blooded Altahajins left; my brother, my best friend, and my father.


Narith is my brother; my best friend's name is Puck, and my father is Oberon Marque. My father is still a proud man, I doubt he will ever give up that pride. I guess it is because that pride is the only reminder of our race he has left; the only thing he has left that he has complete control over. Narith has had a bit of a rebellious past and has no respect for my father whatsoever. He will never be able to forgive our father for surrendering to Frieza. I was able to forgive Oberon, Narith however, was not so quick to forgive. Oberon knew that we didn't have a chance against Frieza, so he surrendered. Narith, ever since Frieza destroyed Planet Mnemosyne, has held an unyielding grudge against our father. I love my brother deeply, but there is a limit to what I can take. Then there is Puck. She was the high priestess to Anubis, our jackal-headed god of the dead, and can often be found in the spiritual realm trying to find a weakness in Frieza's empire. Puck and myself often go to the other realm to find comfort in knowing we have a place to escape to; we use it to get away from our horrible reality. I won't be able to go back for the next nine months, considering my little problem. If a pregnant woman were to go into the other realm, the unborn child's spirit will be taken from the body and the child will be stillborn. I'm sure that if I did that Radditz would have me publicly executed, or at least locked up for the rest of my days. But, I don't have to worry about this until I tell him.


I walked down the corridor of my uncle's new palace. It is located in the region the humans call "Rome". Puck has been very intrigued with the region the humans call "Egypt". It seems the Chikyuujins in that area once worshipped a god almost indistinguishable with the Altahajins' god, Anubis. She is determined to resurrect Anubis, and return him to his former grandeur. I can't say I blame her, who wouldn't want their source of power brought back?


Uncle Vegeta was in almost indescribable awe when he saw Rome; although he is the master at hiding his emotions, I could still tell he was in awe. When he saw the ruins of the ancient city here, he immediately set to work to rebuild the city to its former glory. Within three weeks the city was rebuilt. It's amazing what a little food deprivation will do to get one's body in gear. When I reached the door to Radditz's office, I paused for a moment. A tinge of fear ran through me, what would Radditz think? I pushed those thoughts aside and mentally scolded myself for being so weak. Opening the door, I saw Radditz was looking out the window and onto the city. Zorn was standing next to him doing the same. I silently shut the door behind me and walked over to stand between them. Zorn must have sensed my presence and, but I scared the living hell-fire out of Radditz. He jumped and landed behind the room's desk on his big, rotund ass. I couldn't help but burst out laughing, Zorn did the same. Radditz got up off the floor and gave a look at Zorn. Still chuckling, Zorn turned and left the room winking at me. Still giggling, I walked over to Radditz and wrapped my arms around him.


"What do you want, onna? Another chance to scare the living shit out of me?" Radditz asked down at me.


"I came to tell you a big secret, it concerns you and me." I said still smiling.


"And this big secret would be?" Radditz pondered.


"What would you say if I said that there was going to be an addition to the royal family?" I quizzed him.


"Onna, will you just tell me? You know I hate surprises." Radditz demanded.

"Well...I'm...pregnant...and...we're...going...to...have...an...heir..." I told him slowly.

"W...wh...what?!?!?!" he yelled into my face.

"I'm P-R-E-G-N-A-N-T!!! I didn't know the male population could be so thick-headed!" I tried to storm off, but Radditz grabbed my arm and pulled me into a tight embrace. He put his thin, but soft lips to mine and kissed me with the utmost passion. I could tell right then that he truly did love me; no one kisses like that unless they really mean it. My eyes were closed, but I could tell we got a few strange looks from passing soldiers. The Saiyajin race were not a people of public displays of affection. I opened my eyes and pulled away from my Saiyajin beloved. I could tell from his actions that he was reluctant to break away. I was completely dazed by the whole thing.


He kissed me on the forehead and asked, "When is the brat due?


"Eight and a half months, providing nothing goes wrong." First time pregnancies between and full-blooded Saiyajin and someone from another species usually resulted in a miscarriage; but since I am half Saiyajin, we have a pretty good chance of the baby living. Now, I have eight months of vomiting and morning sickness to look forward to. Oh joy.


"Well, little one, it seems we will have an heir. Who else knows about this?" he inquired with a look of fatherly protection in his eyes.
"You, my private physician, and myself." I said with a grin.

"Well, don't you think you should tell your family and King Vegeta? I think it would be best if you told them too. I don't think you should tell your brother though." he advised.

"Why shouldn't I tell Narith? His is my family, he has a right to know." I asked him.

"Fine, tell your brother, I don't care." he said and gave me another kiss on the forehead.

"Thanks, Radditz!" I turned and walked out the door.

So, I went and told Uncle Vegeta and the rest of my family. Everyone in my family was ecstatic, including Narith. I also told Puck, after I spent a week down in Egypt looking for her. The only bad thing about my pregnancy was that it delayed my time to get ready to retrieve my cousin. The arrogant prince would have to stay under Frieza's "protection" a little bit longer than expected. I had a spy take a note to him announcing my pregnancy and an explanation to him about our situation. I'm sure that in another year and a half won't be too bad for my dear Prince Vegeta. I don't mean to sound cruel, but I'm guessing that he's pretty much used to serving under Frieza. I know that Saiyajins have immense and sometimes uncontrollable tempers, and it must be really hard for him to suck in all his pride for the sake of staying alive. We all know what Frieza is like and no one better than my dear cousin.


Eight months later...
