Goku's eyes fluttered open to reveal a dank dungeon-like environment. The cell he found himself in looked as normal as a jail cell, with the exception of the bones chained in the corner. There were no beds, either. He looked around and spotted Vegeta in a cell across from his.
"Vegeta?" he whispered hoarsely, "Vegeta!" he spoke a bit louder after regaining his voice.
Vegeta stirred slightly and his eyes opened. He shot up instantly, sweating almost uncontrollably. His gaze shot towards Goku, fearfully and trembling.
Goku, feeling as uneasy as he ever could have in a cell, broke the icy silence. "Vegeta, where are we? And what's going on?"
Vegeta's fearful look quickly turned into a vengeful glare. "What do you think? We're on a ship, you baka!" He sighed and continued, "This ship belongs to the Artillians, a supposedly dead race from long ago. The group that jumped us are a team of scientists, researching what, I don't know...They attempted to make a treaty with the Saiya-jins long ago, when I was a kid. Their leader, Vladamir, is the head of them. My father sent my mother and I to sign it, since it was customary for the Queen to do so for the Artillians. After taking off in their ship, they backed off on the treaty and promoted their own ambitions instead."
"Okay, but how did they promote their own ambitions?" Goku asked almost worriedly.
"Scientific research, you dolt!!" Vegeta shouted back. He slammed his head against the wall he leaned on.
Goku perked his head, "Wait! What happened to you and your mother??"
"She's dead. And I, obviously survived!" Vegeta lifted his left hand and stared at the emblem embedded in his skin.
"What's that?"
"It's the Artillian symbol of slaves or lab rats!"
Goku looked down almost shamefully for asking. Vegeta was obviously very touchy on the subject. But curiosity overcame him. "What'd they do to you?"
Vegeta, too, looked down. "I don't remember..."
Vladmir smirked devilishly at the figures that appeared in his moniter.
'Look at them struggle with panic! They have no idea what I'll do to them! Not just Vegeta, but Goku too!'
"Frasten!" he shouted suddenly.
A tall ogre-like creature turned from what he was doing and saluted without any hesitation. "Sire!"
"Go fetch our friends. Do be gentle."
Frasten gave a malicious grin and disappeared in a deep crimson light.
"Ouch!!" Goku yelped as he tried yet again to jerk the bars from their place, and was electrocuted once more.
Vegeta rolled his eyes while sitting quietly in the corner of the cell, images of any and all possibilities of what would happen to either of them; each more gruesome and horrifying than the last.
He was shaken from his grotesque daydreaming as a crimson light climbed from the floor outside their cells. A figure rose slowly from the light and stood tall, his long green hair dripping from his shoulders in a liquid-like fashion and a stupid grin that spread across his scaly face. He approached the cell slowly and stupidly, his breathing seeming to echo in the dark dungeon.
The ogre opened the younger Saiya-jin's cell door and punched the air, hitting Goku in the stomach as he made an escape attempt. He was stupid, but obviously no slouch with fighting.
Goku doubled over holding his stomach and coughing up blood. The ogre took him into a chokehold and approached Vegeta's cell with the same stupid grin.
"Want to go the easy way, or the hard way?" the ogre's grin turned into a sneer as Vegeta stood with a fighting stance.
"The hard way!!" Vegeta shouted just before fading out and in behind the ogre. The ogre turned and caught Vegeta's punch before it hit his face. He threw Vegeta into a wall, cracking it and shaking the whole dungeon, it seemed.
Vegeta landed on the floor with a thud and coughed up blood much as Goku had done before. The ogre walked arrogantly toward Vegeta and picked him up by his waist, holding him upside down. The crimson light surrounded them and they sank into the floor, Goku and Vegeta thrashing with all their might.
Vladmir looked towards the familiar ogre's light and stared with sadistic pleasure to the scene before him. He walked to the trio and laughed maniacally.
"Good job...Now, lets get on to business, shall we?" the maniac nodded to a table near himself and the ogre carrying Vegeta half dragged him there. The ogre strapped him down and stepped away. Vegeta struggled with all his might but could not break through the bindings that held him.
Vladmir nodded once more to confirm the silent order of what awaited Vegeta. At once the ogre pulled from a countertop numerous tubes with needles at the end. Even against Vegeta's nonverbal commands Frasten stuck each of them onto the prince's struggling body.
At once Vladmir grinned and pulled a nearby switch. Odd yellow fluids ran inside the tube and met their destination gruesomely. The older Saiya-jin's face contorted with pain and the struggle with his bindings intensified. Goku could only watch in half-horror and half-amazement at the transformation taking place. Vegeta was shrinking! But other changes were occurring as well. His face adapted a childish look and his power fell dramatically. The threads of time undoing stopped at the assumed age of only four or perhaps even younger; the struggle, however, did not lose its lucidness.
Vladmir cackled the most malevolently yet and signaled for Frasten to undo Vegeta's restricts. He did so and guffawed, as the now younger Vegeta's attempts to harm him were even more futile. He held the child away from him by his shirt and left the room with an enraged Goku with his ogre and Vladmir. The ogre restraining Goku lifted him and approached Vladmir, his iron-grip tightening on Goku's neck.
The smirking scientist lifted a syringe to Goku and smiled even more to Goku's whimpering protests; Goku is deathly frightened of needles. The ogre moved his hand slightly and Vladmir stuck it firmly into the Saiya-jins neck, injecting whatever fluids it possessed.
The ogre laughed deeply and took Goku away, leaving a jeering Vladmir and the knowledge of what might become of him.
