A New Sayian
Chapter 5: Arrival
(A/N: Thanks to all who review, it's very much appreciated. For the one and only anime-kat2002's question, I'm using the 10-year-old version of you from you're fic "Beat Of A Heart", which I recommend. So read this and then go read that! Hope you enjoy!)
"So Vegeta was being attacked mentally?" Goku asked. Bulma nodded her head. She was still shaking from the ordeal. They were sitting in the kitchen by the table. Bulma called up Goku and Chi-Chi after the voice in Vegeta's head went away. She had explained to them everything Vegeta told her. He passed out when Goku and the family arrived. Goku and Trunks had carried him up the stairs to his and Bulma's room.
"So you called us when the voice stopped, just in case something happened, like when he went Majin? In my opinion that was a good precaution to make Bulma, good thinking." Chi-Chi said. Bulma shook her head and wiped some tears away from her eyes with a tissue.
"No, that was Vegeta's idea. He insisted that I call you in case something like that happened." Bulma said. Chi-Chi and Goku looked at each other, then back at her.
"GRR! Gimme that remote!" Chico yelled. Risika held the T.V remote just out of her younger sister's reach.
"Haha! Can't get it!" Risika taunted as she ran away from Chico. She chased after Risika, who was running around the settee.
"Come back! I wanna watch cartoons! C'mon Ri! Give it! Ri! MOM!" Chico yelled. Chi-Chi turned and glared at her.
"Chico! Risika! Be quiet! Vegeta's trying to get some sleep!" She yelled. Chico and Risika immediately stopped running and quickly went back to the settee and sat down.
"I don't see why we have to be quiet for him." Trunks muttered under his breath. Bulma heard this and stormed over to him.
"No, you don't see why because you weren't here! You're father is undergoing serious emotional stress! That's the reason he's been taking off all these nights! Not because he's been cheating on me, but because he had to go for a fly to clear his head from the dreams! 'Cause if he didn't, he would have gone out of his mind with fear and rage!" Bulma yelled. Trunks just watched her and rolled his eyes.
"Maybe so, but that doesn't excuse him from ignoring us mom, even you know he ignores us all! " Trunks yelled back. Bulma's face went red with anger.
"If you saw his face just fifteen minutes ago, you would understand! He was so afraid. Can you possibly imagine what that's like? To be so scared about something that's been haunting you since childhood? No? I can't either! But I had a damn good picture of what it's like when I looked into his eyes!" Bulma yelled again. Trunks just sighed and looked away. Bulma knelt down by the armchair Trunks was sitting in.
"Look Trunks, I know he's been ignoring you and Bra, he knows that too. And I promise I'll talk to him about it when he wakes up, just don't be like this please?" Bulma asked. Trunks looked at her and nodded. Bulma smiled and went back over to Chi-chi and Goku.
"Good way to keep the noise down." Goku joked. Bulma and Chi-Chi both glared at him. Sweat drops ran down his face as he placed his hand behind his head and grinned.
"I think I'll go check on Vegeta." He said before walking quickly up to Vegeta's room. Vegeta was tossing and turning in his sleep.
~*~*Dream World*~*~
Vegeta was walking across a wasteland. There were bits of rubble and dead bodies everywhere. Instead of a blue sky, it was black. Vegeta guessed it must have been night-time. He recognised the clothes of the dead that lay scattered all over the rubble........they were Sayians! He saw movement in the rubble. He knew what used to stand where there was now nothing. It used to be the Sayian capitol! But it had been destroyed somehow. Vegeta rushed over to where he saw the movement. He knelt down and picked up the bits of rock off whoever was there. As he removed the stones, the Sayian who was underneath He knelt down and picked up the bits of rock off whoever was there, as he removed the stones, the Sayian who was underneath tried to push some off him, but he was too weak. Vegeta realised who it was when he had pulled most of the rubble off.
"Father!" Vegeta yelled. He helped the King to a sitting up position.
"Son, you must leave now! He is too pow........." The King didn't get a chance to finish when a thin electric-blue beam shot through his heart. He fell to the floor lifelessly. Vegeta looked on in despair. A tear ran down his right cheek as he watched his father take his last breath. He looked up to see who the assassin was. All Vegeta could see of him was a silhouette. The Sayian was standing on a pile of rubble, looking down at Vegeta. His white, piercing eyes staring unblinkingly at the Prince.
"Maylar!" Vegeta growled. Maylar said nothing. He raised his right hand and stuck his palm out, facing Vegeta. A small ball of electric blue energy formed in his palm. It grew and grew and grew. Vegeta's eyes went wide as he sensed Maylar's power. Maylar released the ki ball, it flew towards Vegeta at tremendous speed, the Prince was smothered in light, he tried to scream, but nothing came out.
~*~*Real World*~*~
"ARRRGHH!" Vegeta yelled as he shot up. He was sweating more than ever. This was the worse dream yet. Goku rushed over to help.
"Vegeta, you ok?" He asked. Vegeta growled and pulled the sheets off him. He got up and went through his drawers. He pulled out his one-piece blue spandex that went underneath his Sayian armour.
"I don't need you're help Kakarot, even if I did, you wouldn't be able to help me." Vegeta answered. Goku looked at him in confusion.
"And how wouldn't I be able to help?" He asked as he sat on the bed. Vegeta put on his spandex and went over to the window. He stared outside, it was raining and lightening flashed every now and again.
"Because, he's too powerful. Even for you Kakarot. You might have defeated the most powerful warriors in the universe before, but if my gut feeling is correct, and he IS alive, not even you would find a way to defeat this monster." Vegeta said quietly. He continued to stare out the window. Goku said nothing. Lightening flashed, in the split-second that the lightening lighted the room, Vegeta swore he saw something. Lightening flashed again, he saw it again, this time he saw what it was. It was the outline of a man. Again, the lightening flashed and lit up the room for a second. The shadowy figure was closer this time, almost right up against the window. Vegeta saw the white eyes that haunted him in his dreams. He backed away from the window and fell onto the bed.
"Vegeta? What's wrong?" Goku asked. He looked in the direction where Vegeta was pointing. His hand was trembling, as was the rest of him. Goku got up and walked over to the window. He looked out the window but saw nothing.
"There's nothing out there Vegeta, what did you see?" Goku asked as he turned around. Vegeta swallowed hard and walked up next to Goku. He was right, there was nothing there. Vegeta sighed and sat back down on the edge of the bed.
"I saw him Kakarot. He was so close I could have touched him. First he takes over my dreams, and then he speaks to me in my head, now I'm seeing him! What could all this mean Kakarot?" Vegeta asked. Goku shrugged his shoulders.
"I don't know Vegeta, maybe he is alive and he's trying to communicate with you." He replied. Vegeta sighed and walked out of the room and down the stairs. Goku followed him.
"Vegeta! You're awake already?" Bulma asked as she wrapped her arms around his neck.
"I couldn't sleep." Vegeta replied. Bulma nodded her head and took him to the kitchen. She signalled with her hand for Chi-Chi and Goku to leave the kitchen.
"C'mon Goku, lets go see what's on T.V." Chi-Chi said as she got up.
"But Chi! I'm so hungry! Can't I have something to eat first?" Goku whined. Chi-Chi growled and dragged him out by his ear. Vegeta smirked as he watched Goku being dragged out.
"Vegeta, I need to talk to you about something." Bulma said as she sat down by the table. Vegeta nodded and sat next to her.
"Trunks and Bra feel you've been ignoring them. I did tell them that it was because you're going through emotional stress but they wouldn't listen. Do you think you could spend more time with them than training?" Bulma asked. Vegeta looked into the living room and then back at Bulma.
"I cannot do that Bulma. What if he IS alive and I stop training? I would certainly be too weak to put up a good fight against him." Vegeta replied. Bulma sighed and nodded her head.
"Ok, then what about letting Trunks train with you? And spend as much time with Bra as you can outside of training?" Bulma suggested. Vegeta nodded his head in agreement. He got up and walked into the living room.
"Trunks, come with me, we're going to train. Bra, you can come if you want." Vegeta said before he went to the gravity room. Trunks looked at his mother.
"Did you talk to him?" He asked. Bulma nodded.
"Yes, and this is his way of spending time with you, so make the most of it." Bulma answered. Trunks nodded and ran to the gravity room.
"Aren't you going Bra?" Cheena asked. Bra shook her head.
"No, I don't like training. Besides, I don't mind dad spending more time with Trunks than with me." She replied. Cheena shrugged her shoulders and went back to watching T.V. In the gravity room, Vegeta and Trunks were sparring. They had turned the gravity up to ten times earth's gravitational pull. They flew around the room throwing punches and kicks at each other, none of them connected. They were just starting to get into it when Vegeta stopped.
"Dad? What's wrong?" Trunks asked. Vegeta was holding his head. He began to power up. He turned SSJ as Trunks watched his father fight an invisible enemy.
"NO! Not again! Why won't you......LEAVE ME ALONE!?" Vegeta screamed as he turned SSJ2. His gold aura flickered angrily and lit up the room.
"Dad!? What is it!?" Trunks yelled. His father's screams almost drowned out his voice.
* My Prince........ I feel you now........ * The voice in Vegeta's head whispered softly, it repeated over and over.
"NO!! GO AWAY! WHAT DID I DO TO YOU!?" Vegeta screamed at the top of his voice. Trunks looked on, he knew he couldn't do anything, and that was killing him inside.
"What's that?" Cheena asked. Goten looked at her and then at Goku, as if to ask the same question.
"It's Vegeta! C'mon!" Goku said. They all hurried to the gravity room. They stopped when they saw Vegeta. His muscles were bulging and he was sweating like nothing else. They're eyes went wide as they saw the fear on his face. It was like looking into the eyes of a small child that had been abused.
* My Prince...... * The voice continued. Vegeta growled and screamed.
"GO AWAY!!" But the voice did no such thing.
* My Prince.......I am here now. * The voice said before vanishing completely. Vegeta powered down back to his normal state and fell to the ground. Bulma, Trunks and Bra ran over to him just as he hit the floor. He was breathing heavily. Trunks helped him sit up.
"Goku, can you go to Korin's tower and get a sensu bean please?" Bulma asked. Goku nodded and was about to put his two fingers to his forehead when Vegeta spoke up.
"No, I will not.....use those stupid......vegetables to heal, I will heal myself." He said quietly. Goku looked at Bulma for some instruction on what to do, Bulma shook her head. Goku nodded and put his arms back by his side. Vegeta stood up slowly and left the gravity room, he went to the living room to sit down. Just as he entered the living room, he saw a flash of light streak down from the sky like a meteor. There was a massive explosion that shook the earth. Ornaments fell off their shelves, the shelves followed soon after, Vegeta held onto the doorframe to steady himself. Once the shaking had stopped. Everyone ran from the gravity room to where Vegeta was. He ran over to the window and saw birds flying away from where whatever it was landed. He remembered the last thing the voice said before going away: My Prince.......I am here now.
