Chapter 10"Nappa will you shut the hell up!" Turles snapped, sick of the complaining.
"If the DAMN ship… Wait it's not a ship at ALL. That's too much of complement for the rust bucket." Nappa handed another tool to Turles who was on his back under the main control pad for the second time since they paid a huge amount for the derelict old merchant ship a week ago.
"When I get my hands on that old fart…"
"WILL YOU SHUT IT?" Turles roared as threw the tool at his friend who simply caught it. Turles growled as Nappa handed the tool back completely unfazed.
"Why can't we dump this shit and get us a proper ship?" Nappa grumbled as he kicked the machine that Turles was under. Sending the man in growl.
"Because I'm BROKE getting this THING."
"I offered." Nappa shrugged his shoulders. He ignored the death glare his old time friend's brother gave him.
"Raditz would die laughing if he was here." Nappa frowned. He would be so embarrassed if Raditz, his old friend, found out how much they paid for this shit piece of metal.
"Only at you NAPPA." If he had to hear again, what he had heard a thousand times before. What his brother would have done, he was going to send Nappa to Otherworld.
"Nothing to do. I need to beat the crap out of someone." Nappa said scowling, cracking his knuckles
"How about I beat the CRAP AT OF YOU." Turles roared from under the consol ready throttle his huge friend should he say another word.
"How long before you fix it?" Nappa asked as he crouched down next to the other Saiyan. Turles let his hand go limp on his chest as he stared back up the mass of wiring above his head. *I'm going to kill him.*
Turles pulls himself out and sat up. His dark eyes were masked from the large amount of frustration he was feeling. He looked up at his clueless friend and said in an emotionless tone, "Well if you go and sit over there and stop breathing for a second I will have this Tin Can back up and running before you go blue."
"That soon… huh? Ok." Turles let himself fall back as he rolled his eyes. He was frustrated with the whole mess with the boys disappearances. Nappa was just as frustrated as he was. The large Saiyan has been Mirai's body guard since he was born and when Vegeta took Kakarrot as his mate and brought his baby son into the palace Nappa watched both boys. It was a sad day when his service was called elsewhere and he had to leave the boys.
The tight quarters and the constantly failing of the ship were increasing their aggravation and worries. Turles was still mulling over the fact that his father was alive and had spent a little over a year as an undercover agent. When he was told he had swore every native word he knew. He had spent all that time searching and his brother in-law, the King, had known all along. If Nappa hadn't held him back he would have been up for murdering the King of Vegeta-sei
At his last contact with the King, Turles was told about his twin's failing health. Nothing was going right for them. If he didn't release all his pent up rage soon Nappa will be the one on the end of his fist but he'd much rather it to be Burles. That slime ball was his target and it was a race between Nappa and him as to who would claim his head first.

"I'm so fucked if I get caught" Krillin said with the bundle clutched tight to his chest wrapped in one of Burles' blankets. Krillin's suspicious eyes hadn't stopped darting around for any sign of trouble since he had grabbed the boy from his boss's room. All this time he has been sneaking around corridors to reach his quarters. It would be good place to hide the kid until the ship lands.
The unmoving form in his arms hadn't stirred since he collapsed back at Burles' room. Every so often Krillin would shift the blanket and check the boy's vital signs. There was a sigh of relief each time he could feel a low but steady beat.
In few minutes Krillin made it back to his room he placed the unconscious boy down on the bed and un-wrapped the blanket. Krillin sighed and looked over at the mess the cub was in. "I'll be right back."
A few minutes later with a wet cloth and one of his smaller tops, he started to clean away the blood from the torn chibi. Gohan started to stir with the handling. When his thick lashes fluttered open he looked up to see a man standing over him. A gasp the boy jumped back nearly falling off the bed. "Shh son I won't hurt you." Krillin backed away trying to reassure the frightened boy.
Gohan's breathing came in hard. His eyes lit with fear as they darted around the room and came to rest on the clean oversize top that hung off his shoulders. Cautiously Gohan shifted away wincing as he did. He wanted to cry but he felt he had no more tears left to shred. His body burned with razer sharp pain. He didn't know the words used to call what had happened to him. He was too young to understand or grasp any of this. The boy had been raped, molested beyond repair, broken mentally and physically.
Krillin watched from a safe distance. The boy's eyes hadn't left him. Watching every movement he did, calculating the next action the man in front of him would do. "Son I'm going to take you somewhere safe. But I need you to stay quiet. Ok so we don't get caught." Krillin wasn't expecting the boy to answer but he hoped the boy had taken some of what he had said in.
The young prince's eyes stayed active but the rest was motionless. Krillin got up to the door and listened. No sound. It was a good as time to check. "Stay here I be right back."
Gohan watched as the man leave the room. Now that the man was gone the boy took in his surroundings. The room was plain, almost void of any colour. He allowed his head to slip back to the pillow. Moments later Krillin came back "It's safe, we can go."

Elsewhere in the ship. Burles was in his room. The burly man had never been this scared in his whole life. The ship had just landed and he had lost not just one, but two royal cubs and now he just been informed that Zarbon was on his way. "I'm not waiting around for this." Burles knew he was dead once Frieza's top man found the boys missing and he wasn't going to stay around to find out just how mad Zarbon could be. Cramming his stuff into a bag Burles retreated from his room.

"Ursus we're going to crash!" Mirai pointed at the ground approaching them at an exceptionally fast rate. Launchings in the atmosphere wasn't the best of moves as the small pod was bounced around giving its occupants a rough ride.
"What do you want me to do?" The boy yelled with wide eyes.
"You know about this stuff."
"Yeah right. I say brace yourself when going to CRASH."Both boys sat back on the single chair with fingers clutching at the arms of chair as the ship hurled itself towards the planets surface.
"We are so going to die" Ursus yelled as they got buffeted around in the tiny pod. Staring wide eyed at the shaking view from the small port hole in front of them they could see a thick forest of tress. Bracing themselves for impact the two boys squeezed their eyes shut, not wanting to know. In a matter of moments the boys where hammered forward from their seats as the world tumbled out of control. The two boys rolled around inside the pod colliding into each other as well as its surroundings until it came to a stop with the sounds of timber falling echoing its muffled sound into the pod.
Silence coated the forest as broken trees fell in to place on the torn earth as the pod carved into the ground on impact, leaving leaves raining down from snapped branches. In time things settled leaving the only sounds echoing from inside the pod.
"ARRrrrgh… I-I think my legs are broken." Ursus winched as pulled at his leg to shift it from the angle it was at.
"Urrr… my head." Mirai looked up watching his vision spin in front of him as he tried to pull his body out from under Ursus. "Oh… my head"
"Well we have stopped." Ursus winced again as Mirai shifted from under him sending more white blazing pain up his body.
"Yeah, but where?" Mirai asked as he held his head looking out of the cracked window on its side.
"Who knows but we will have to get out of here before they come looking for us."
"It's me they are after if they come."
"Are you saying your better than me?" Ursus growled out as he shifted so he could lean back on the chair that was on it side.
Mirai frowned. His new friend could be such ass sometimes. "I didn't say that."
"Then shut up and help me out."
Mirai's brow rose at his friend. "Kami you sound like my dad."
Ursus thought about it and nodded. "King, I can live with that. Come on help me." Ursus pressed the remote control on the door. "The rotten thing is stuck."
"Here you got it up side down. You pressed that one before." Mirai said with blood trailing down his face.
"Fast learner."
"My fathers wouldn't have it any other way." Ursus nodded and turn back to press the button and with some persuasion on the boys behalf the door shifted and opened.
Mirai climbed out first onto the soft dirt with its rich colour. "Come on." Mirai held out his hand to pull his friend up. "Here sit and I see what I can find to bind it."
"Have you done this before?" Ursus asked looking at his leg with a gash up his side. He leaned up against the pod watching his friend search for something to use as a descent splint.
"Not personally but I watched my uncle Turles fix up my brother's tail ounce."
"Your uncle is General Turles."
"Yes my papa's twin." Mirai said as kneeled down next the boy and ripe away at his pant leg.
Ursus thought about before scanning his surroundings. "If we go that away. We should come across some town." He pointed over a hill littered with trees
"How can you be sure?"
"It's a gut feeling." Ursus said
Mirai nodded. He could understand that. Gohan always had gut feelings when it came to Burles. And look how that turned out. Thinking about his brother weighed heavily on him. He had to find someone who will help and get in contact with his fathers. Mirai went back to work. It wasn't long before he had strapped Ursus' leg. "How's that? It should help."
"Come on. I am getting nervous staying in one place too long." Mirai held Ursus as they made their way up in search for help. The prince could only pray to Kami that he was watching over his brother's safety. With that thought in his mind Mirai moved forward swearing he would get his brother back. And once his fathers learn of this he knew there would be hell to pay.
TBC…
A/N: Sorry for the delay
I'm guessing maybe some powerful Saiyans are going on the hunt. And the boy's might find their way home? Who knows what Krillin will do? I don't think he knows. A big guess would be I want them to grow up soon so I can get to the romance. I like that part the best. But we need some suffering first so I can play with it later… *grins*
And thanks
