"Oh right, that." King Vegeta nodded. "Alright then, who is it you need?"
"What does that mean?!" I demanded. They're gonna kill someone else, I know it!
"What are you two up to?" the monster asked.
"Where's that child?" Prince Vegeta questioned.
"There's no other child except this one." King Vegeta pointed to Vegeta.
"There is one other." Prince Vegeta told him.
"Who?"
"Father," I turned my head when I heard a familiar voice. It was Prince Vegeta – I mean the child one. Child? It was him!
"Run!" I shouted to him.
"Huh?" he looked at me. "What?"
"You have to run away NOW!"
"… Father, who is this maniac?" he asked King Vegeta.
"He's a saiyan, that's all I know." King Vegeta told him.
"He is NOT a saiyan!" the monster growled. "He's a changeling, he's who I used to be!"
"Well he looks like a saiyan to me." Chibi Prince Vegeta shrugged.
"You came just in time, kid." Prince Vegeta said. "Your father was just about to keep his side of the bargain."
"Bargain?" Chibi looked at King Vegeta. "What bargain?"
"He agreed to help me kill the person I wanted dead if I killed the person he wanted dead," King Vegeta looked at Prince Vegeta. "Who is that, anyway?"
"It's your son!" I shouted. "Get him out of here!"
"Oh, shut up." I cried out as the monster punched me to the floor. It glared at me. "If we wanted your opinion we'd ask for it, keep quiet!"
"But –" it lashed out again. I feel a little dizzy, but I still have to make Chibi run away. I tried to get up. "Please –"
"Stop it!" the monster hit me again, and held me down with its tail. I looked at Chibi.
"You have to get away now."
"What?" Chibi frowned. "Who are you?"
"Who cares." Prince Vegeta knelt down at smirked at him. "You just hold still, okay?"
"Huh…?"
Prince Vegeta began to raise his hand a little.
"Hey!" King Vegeta cried. "What are you doing?!"
"What does it look like?" Prince Vegeta replied.
"Father…" Chibi backed away.
"Stop it!" King Vegeta stepped in front of him. "I won't let you!"
"Why not?!" Prince Vegeta growled, standing up. "We had a deal, remember?! I helped you kill your past now you held me kill mine!"
"You never told me you wanted to kill my SON!" King Vegeta snapped.
"And you never told me who you wanted to kill."
"You have nothing to do with my past!"
"And you have nothing to do with mine."
"I'm his father!"
"Are you saiyans done yet?" The monster asked. "One of you just kill the boy and make it quick!"
"Fine." Prince Vegeta said.
"No!" I gasped as he dived at Chibi. "Get off him!" I tried to move but the monster just held me down more. "Leave him alone!"
"Get off him!" King Vegeta swung his fist and knocked Prince Vegeta away from Chibi.
"Vegeta, run!" he shouted.
"But father –"
"I said run, didn't I?!" King Vegeta snapped. Chibi began to run away, but Prince Vegeta followed him.
"Get off him!" King Vegeta snarled. My eyes widened when he fired a blast at Prince Vegeta. You can do that? Could I?
I looked at the monster, and held out my hand. Nothing happened. What am I supposed to do?
The monster burst out laughing.
"You idiot!" it cried. "What are you trying to do?"
"Let me go!" I shouted. I started beating its tail. "Get off me!" it only laughed harder.
"Leave him!" I turned my head to see King Vegeta and Prince Vegeta fighting like crazy. King Vegeta knocked Prince Vegeta to the ground, causing him to cough up a lot of blood.
"Hey!" the monster's eyes widened. "Don't kill him!" he fired one of those blast things at King Vegeta, and another one.
"Ha ha!" Prince Vegeta exclaimed. He called into the darkness. "Hey, kid! Your father's dying!"
"Don't!" King Vegeta cried out. "You'll bring him back!"
"Exactly." Prince Vegeta smirked. "Where are you? Don't you want to save him?"
"Shut up!" King Vegeta leapt at Prince Vegeta, and the monster blasted him again.
"Father!" Chibi came running up.
"Vegeta, I told you to run!" King Vegeta shouted.
"But I –"
"I'm tired of all this squabbling," the monster said. "I think I'll put an end to it now." He fired one last blast that went right through King Vegeta. Ugh! That's horrible! I turned away, my eyes closed. I feel sick!
"Father!" I opened my eyes to see Chibi run over to King Vegeta. "No! You can't –" he glared at the monster. "What did you do?!"
"Would you like me to draw you a diagram?" the monster smirked.
"You – You BASTARD!" Chibi screamed. "I hate you! I – I'LL KILL YOU!"
"Come on, then." The monster let me go and knelt down. "If you think you can so much as lay a scratch on me, the do it."
"Vegeta, no! It's a –" but he wasn't listening. Chibi charged at the monster angrily, which caught him and picked him up.
"Hey!" he snapped. "Let me GO!"
"Get off him!" I shouted.
"Here." The monster ignored me and threw Chibi to Prince Vegeta.
"No! Leave him –" I was held back again. "Get off!" I struggled to shake that thing off me.
"Thanks." Prince Vegeta smirked.
"Hey!" Chibi growled. "Let go! Let go of me, I want to say goodbye to my father!" he looked like he was about to burst into tears when he said that.
"So say it now." Prince Vegeta ordered.
"Let – me – go!"
"Sorry."
ARGH! I couldn't turn away quick enough before he broke Chibi's neck. Yuck… I heard it crack.
"Three of them…" the monster commented. It smirked. "I haven't seen that many dead saiyans in years."
"That was a sick joke." Prince Vegeta replied, tossing Chibi to the ground.
"You're both sick!" I shouted. "He was just a kid and you killed him!"
"I had to." Prince Vegeta told me. "He was my past – and I can't exist without killing him first. Why do you think your friend was killed?"
"And it's the same reason I'm killing you." The monster said to me. "This was all a mistake anyway, it shouldn't have happened! You weren't supposed to come back to life, it was supposed to be me!"
"What are you going to do…?"
"Kill you, I just said." The monster replied. "But first, I need to re-kill my other victims."
"Huh?!" Prince Vegeta's eyes widened. "But you said – you said if I helped kill your past, you'd leave me alone!"
"I've changed my mind." The monster smirked. "Besides, I have to kill you. Anything I did in the past I need to do again."
"But –" Prince Vegeta backed away. "You said – You liar!"
"Come now, Vegeta… surely by now even you know that you can't trust me. You must be a lot dumber than I thought." The monster let me go and walked towards him.
"Get away!" Prince Vegeta threatened, holding up his hands. The monster just laughed.
"Vegeta, what do you hope to do? You're not even as strong as I was when I was a baby, what chance do you stand now?"
"I –"
"You're pathetic, and we both know it." The monster said. "So just give up." It attacked him.
"Hey!" I ran over. Nobody else is dying! I'm sick of it! "Get off him!"
"Leave me alone!" the monster shouted, knocking me away. "The only thing you're good for is getting in my way!"
"I'm not afraid of you anymore!" I screamed.
"You don't have to be, I'll still kill you."
"NO!" I charged at it.
"Get lost!" it blasted me away. I landed with a hard thud. My head hurts… I looked at my hand – and my eyes widened. My metal hand! Where did it go?
"You're falling apart already!" the monster smirked. I turned my head to see my hand there. Geez…
"Stop it! Leave me alone –" I raised my head to see the monster beating Prince Vegeta. Blood everywhere… I can't stand it anymore, I have to help him!
I got up and charged at the monster.
"I SAID leave him alone!" I knocked it away from Prince Vegeta.
"Get off me!" it hissed.
"No!" I shouted.
"Didn't you hear me?" it blasted me again, and grabbed Prince Vegeta.
"Try getting your heart back now!" it snarled, and shoved its fist into his chest. The prince's eyes widened and he gagged a little. I clasped my hands over my mouth when the monster pulled out his heart – it was still beating, I felt both sick and terrified.
"There." The monster threw the heart into the darkness. "Now don't come back again!"
"Y – Y…" Prince Vegeta fell limp.
I can feel myself trembling. His eyes… they're still open.
"Now it's your turn." The monster said to me.
"No." I shook my head.
"No?" it repeated. It laughed. "I'm afraid you don't have much of a choice."
"No…" I stood up, and started to back away. "Just leave me alone! Please – just go away!"
"Nu-uh." It walked towards me.
"Please…"
"No." it seemed amused. "You don't get it, do you? Unless I kill you, I can't exist."
"So don't…" I stumbled, but caught my balance. I'm so scared… I know only one of us will live. What'll happen to me…?
"And why would I do that?" the monster asked.
"…" I couldn't answer it.
"Well?"
"Just go!" I shouted. "I want you to go!"
"Never." Its cold voice froze my blood. "Now, come here…"
