Frieza ripped Vegeta's body off the spikes and forced him down on a spiked table. A group of doctors came in the cell. One was securing Vegeta down while the others were finding out what they should do to this prince. The doctors were ready to perform this task. Vegeta's torso was cut opened and half of his vital organs removed. His wounds sewn up and thrown into a cell bound completely, even gagged. He could not move one part of his body from the torture, operation and the chains. "I can feel Serena's strength returning. At least she is all right. I do not know about what and me I going to happen to me. Why did you do this to me Frieza? Who made you take me away?" Vegeta thought as he faded into a blackness state.
Serena was faring better for the moment.
"Will she live, Doc?" Zarbon asked with complete concern.
"Yes, the rejuvenation tank or "Juv Tank" will heal her back to her original health and triple it, since she is an Saiyan, their strength triples when they are healed for near death collisions. You may stay with her, but I suggest a cup of coffee or some wine. She is not due to be out for another night," Doc replied.
Zarbon pulled a chair over to the tank. He plopped down and watched as the liquid in the tank swirled Serena's hair around. Zarbon just noticed that her hair was extremely shorter than he remembered. Actually, her hair was short, to her shoulders. She was now a slave to that tyrant. Zarbon looked down at his bluish color hands and buried his face in them.
"How could I have agreed to have this done to you? I am a fool to let anyone harm you this way, but there is noting that I can do now. If I try to escape, I will risk both of our lives and if I stay here, I will be risking yours. What am I to do?" Zarbon wailed.
"It is not all your fault. Even if you had disagreed, Vejita wouldn't have. So, Serena and Vegeta would still be here, and probably in worse conditions than they are. Think of the good by being here and not the bad," a mysterious voice comforted.
"Who are you?" Zarbon demanded as he wiped the tears of his slender face.
The man walked out of the shadows. His hair was white and very puffy. He had a red-orange tint to his skin and dark green eyes. He spoke with an accent that was hardly distinguishable earlier.
"I am Jeice of the Ginyu Force. Son to Kailein and Keiya. Sister to Serena."
"What were those names again? Did I hear you correctly? Sister to Serena?" Zarbon cried.
"Yes, Father. I have returned. Frieza took me in when our planet was destroyed. He took care of me as a son and recently, told me the truth. The truth about everything, including Mother's death, but this is not the time to inform you of these matters. If I reveal all this too early, it will not give the purpose that it was suppose to give. Now, how is Fluffy doing?" Jeice replied.
Serena started to stir in the tank, her eyes flipped open and she was fully conscious. She pounded her little fist on the glass, wanting released. Jeice opened the latch and Serena fell out on the cold floor.
"Daddy, I want to be with Vegeta. I don't care if I am in the dungeons, I want to be at his side, please?" Serena begged as her eyes watered.
Zarbon and Jeice exchanged glances as the pouting princess stared up at them.
Frieza stomped to where Vegeta was being contained. He threw open the cell door. Vegeta had managed to crawl to the corner of the cell. He looked so pitiful and pathetic. Frieza just snickered as he walked up to the might y prince.
"My dear Vegeta, you look awful. Here let me help you!" Frieza mocked
Frieza bent down and picked up a collar and chain. Then locked it around Vegeta's neck and on the wall as high up as it would reach. He picked up some spare chains from the floor and wrapped them all around Vegeta's sore body. He stepped back and admired his work.
"Why.are you doing this to me? Who.or what. made you do this?' Vegeta weakly asked.
"My dear Vegeta, you have no idea who ordered this? Well, when you do find out, it will be a major shock to you. And Serena," Frieza hissed.
Vegeta looked up at Frieza, and Frieza struck him across the face. His head snapped back and hit the cell wall. The collar around his neck choked him as his head went back. Frieza just laughed and walked out of the cell. Frieza continued to the communications room; to contact Vejita. He pressed the button and Vejita appeared on the screen.
"Yes, what do you want" Vejita snapped.
"Your son has been punished and his vital organs are now half. Anything else you wish to be done to him?" Frieza informed.
"No, not at the moment I don't," Vejita, stammered
"Who is it, Highness?" a feminine voice spoke.
"Why don't you come back to bed?" another one came out.
"Please, Your Grace. We are all tired," his wife complained.
"All right. Nice to hear the progress but I have to sign off. I have more important matters at hand than to speak to you," Vejita griped.
The screen turned black signifying that the link had been closed. Frieza pounded his chalky white fists on the main board.
"How can they treat me like this? I am much stronger than Vejita or that pretty boy! I will show them, no one gets away with mocking the great Frieza!" He yelled.
