A-Chan: Yea, I know.. I'm getting slower and slower with every update. I'm sorry. It's just been so busy lately! (work and school) Well, this one did take pretty long, but I'm sure others took longer!! Well.. I dunno what to say.. Read on my lovely fans! :P I'll try to get the next chapter up a little faster, but like I said, I'm a busy person. Thanks for the encouragement so far!! ^-^

" Vegeta, Vegeta?! Wake up Vegeta!" I yell in shock at what I see.
Vegeta is lying in my arms and shaking like never before. Either something he is dreaming about is frightening, or he is having some kind of attack. I shake him to wake him up, as if that will affect him while he is already shaking.
" Vegeta, please wake up, you are worrying me!!" I yell and carry him to the corner.
I rest Vegeta's face below the small trail of water, and let it drip over his face, hoping that the chill of it will shock him to waking. It seems to work, because his eyes slide open after a second. He jumps in shock and wipes his face. His expression is very scared and worried. He grabs me and clings on for dear life.
" Thank the gods you are here!!" He yells and takes me into his arms.
" Thank the gods you live..."
Vegeta whimpers slightly in my arms. His breathing is quick and he is still slightly startled. Is he all right?
" Vegeta, what is wrong? Bad dream?" I ask.
" Horrible dream!" He cries.
" What was it?"
Vegeta sits still for a moment as if he does not want to tell me. I nudge him, thinking that he is only spacing out.
" I... don't remember..." He stutters slightly.
I look at him questioningly, but he does not respond to my stare. His is elsewhere. His eyes are focused on the wall, not moving, and his thoughts are sailing about. Sailing about so much as I can't seem to find any in specific.
" It was about... what is to come, I think..."
"What do you mean?" I am confused.
" It felt like the future..." His voice trails off.
" Oh well, that's silly. It's not like you are psychic or anything." I laugh it off, but Vegeta seems to be stuck in the moment with his fright.
" But I still fear what I saw...."
" Can you tell me..?"
" No..." He says quietly.
Great... now he's seeing terrible stuff from the 'future' that seems to really affect him. If that's the case, it must be real bad, huh?
" It's bad.. I'm sure. Nothing has scared me so much. But I don't remember it all."
" It's all right Vegeta. I don't need to know that bad." Though I want to!
Vegeta and I lie for a moment when we hear footsteps coming down the hall. It can't be meal time.. It's much too early.
" It's not feeding time..." Vegeta lets me know.
" It's Frieza."
My eyes widen. Of course.. I recognize the ki signature now. It seems to have gotten stronger.
The door opens then so abruptly that Vegeta and I jump from our positions. This seems to be rewarding though, because he did not realize that we were lying in each other's arms.
" Time is up boys, glad to see me again?" He grins.
Neither of us respond.
" Nice to know. Well, I just wanted to tell you that tonight is your last night, my precious saiyans. Tomorrow.. Yes, tomorrow you will join me for some fun. We have come to some pathetic planet we want to conquer. It should be easy enough. The usual, we will arrive, and you will get some time to kill some helpless beings, and when we are all finished, I will destroy it with my ki. Fun, huh? We do it all the time, but I think it will be your first time, right, Kakarot? Well, to celebrate, I will let you have the first kill, how's that sound?! What do you say?" Frieza grins as if he has something up his sleeve.
It's not like I can turn him down. I nod.
" Great. You will get the first kill then. Congratulations. My precious slaves..." He hisses. " I am so intrigued by your power.. That's why you are now on the top of my list. You get priority in times like this. But of course your strength does not compare to mine. I only hope that you will become stronger, so you can become my new killing machines. You should ask Vegeta about that, Kakarot. He has had that position before. I think he loved it." Frieza laughs.
My stare turns to him, and his down. Vegeta holds his head down almost in shame, though I have never seen that from him before.
" You will stay in here tonight. Maybe tomorrow you will be more talkative. We are going to have some fun, right?"
Vegeta and I nod, knowing that our silence could possibly anger him.
" Great. Oh.. and one last thing... You are invited to my table for dinner tomorrow night.. if you make the first kill.. It will be like a little celebration. But if you don't.. well.. I'm sure you have gotten used to this cell by now." Frieza seems to find a way of humoring himself with every sentence.
" Well, I will leave you two alone now. I hope you have become acquainted with one another by now. I hope to have you train with each other eventually." Frieza closes the door and walks away.
"This is our last night alone now..." I say quietly.
" Yes.. it is.. We better make the best of it."
