Hey guys! I love this story. I wanna give a shout out to Trina Monkey and my friends Jena and Beta Genius from school. They're the only people I can talk anime with at school. How sad? There should be so many more people to talk anime with, but oh well. I love DBZ! Anyway…

Chapter 5

Me no own

Bulma and Vegeta followed the boy through the planet carefully, trying not make the new inhabitants of the planets angry. According the Andiun, they were fierce creatures who could kill anyone and anything. Vegeta was not afraid, but didn't care about freeing the boy of slavery, so agreed to stay away from them.

They went deep into a forest and it got could and dark and Bulma began to get a little worried. "Where are we?"

The little boy pointed ahead to a cave. "There's where I go to run away sometimes." He ran to the small, dark cave and Bulma and Vegeta followed him inside.

Bulma shivered from the chill and covered her arms and placed the hood back over her head. "It's so cold!" She looked over to the Prince and noticed that he was giving the little boy a scowl. Or was it a look of interest in some strange way? She didn't know everything, even though that was what she liked people to believe.

Vegeta didn't like the little boy, just because he reminded him of what he had and lost, because he was not strong enough. Andiun did not have the strength, but he looked the part of a Super Saiyan, and that upset Vegeta.

Andiun reached inside a hole in the cave wall and pulled out some pictures. "This is her."

Bulma took it from his hands and studied the picture. "This does look like me, but it cannot be." The woman in the picture looked exactly like Bulma, which confused her. She had everything, right down to the blue hair. The picture was worn out and drawn. "This isn't me."

The boy frowned, but then began pulling more things out and one of it was a cloth that had something in it. He unwrapped the object and Bulma noticed that it was a loaf of bread. He bit off a piece and Bulma and Vegeta could hear the crunch. There wasn't much of the loaf and it appeared he had nothing else in the hole.

Andiun looked up at Bulma full of concern and said "I'm sorry. Would you like some bread?"

It almost broke Bulma's heart. "N-no. I don't want any."

"Aren't you hungry?"

Bulma was, but she couldn't help but say no. That was all he had. He was a thin boy, too thin for her taste. He needed all he could eat, and all he had was stale bread. "I don't want any. I'm fine. Thank you, though."

Vegeta didn't have a compassionate heart like Bulma and rather snapped at the boy. "Look kid! We want to know what we came here for!"

He grew frightened from Vegeta's loud cruel voice. "I-I-I s-showed you the picture."

Vegeta growled. "Fine then. Lets go Bulma!" He walked out the cave and gave Bulma an icy glare that was to signal her to come.

Bulma gave Vegeta a glare and then knelt down to Andiun and gave him a smile. "I don't know how to help you."

His eyes were full of denial. "But it's you! You're going to help someone and then they're going to save our world!"

Bulma ran her fingers through his hair. "Let me show you what I see." She gave the boy a quick kiss on his lips and backed off.

The small kiss was enough to know that the boy was to go with Bulma and Vegeta. Andiun is no longer too thin, but gets muscles and becomes very attractive. He becomes a strong warrior, and a wise one at that. He becomes Bulma's and Vegeta's most trusted ally. He would get off the planet and actually be happy.

There was a dark part in his future. Only Bulma caught that part and she wished she did not.

"I want you to come with us."

His eyes lit up. "Do you mean it?"

Vegeta heard this with his sensitive ears. "I will not be looking after a child!"

Bulma arose and came to Vegeta fearless. "I am going to take care of this child! If you ever do anything to harm him, I swear that I'll never help you!"

He saw her eyes burning and he knew that she could not be moved. He just came closer to her and said in a dark and menacing voice. "He better stay out of my way." He walked away.

Bulma smiled and then went to Andiun and grabbed his hand. "Come on. We have to go now."

"But what about my people? We're still slaves!"

"I know, but it's not time yet. I saw freedom, and I promise I'll make sure it happens."

He nodded. "Okay."

Bulma took his hand and caught up with Vegeta. "Lets fly!"

"Hmpf. Whatever happened to saving your people?"

"It's not time yet. There's a time and a place for everything, but this isn't the time yet. They will be free and will have this planet, but within time."

"But we did not learn what we needed to."

"Andiun knows more than what we think. He talked with the elder. She knew all about what happened. She passed away, but he listened to her stories."

Vegeta took Bulma in his right arm and Andiun with his left. "Lets go."

They flew off into the sky and flew back to the space ship.

"This is a big ship." Andiun looked around the ship and was left in awe of how big it was. "I love it! I wanted to leave, and I'm so happy that I can!"

Bulma started up the ship and they were off. In about an hour or so when things had gotten too quiet for Bulma and Vegeta, Andiun was confronted about what he knew. He did not want to answer any questions, but somehow he knew it was the right thing to do. "Well, you're the descendant of Metasha. She wasn't a very nice person and she lived about 300 years ago."

Both Bulma and Vegeta were listening closely, but Vegeta still couldn't help but give that little boy that snarl. Bulma already knew what had been said, but didn't know much more than that. "Tell me more. I really want to know about my heritage."

"Well," Andiun looked away so he would not see Bulma's expression. "I heard that she was a whore you didn't stay to one man ever."

Vegeta looked at Bulma and snickered a little and Bulma was left in shock of her new information. "I-I've never heard that before."

Andiun faced her once more. "Well, that's what the elder told me. She also told me that she was vain and rude."

"Sounds just like you, woman."

Bulma shot Vegeta a dirty look and then looked back to Andiun. "Tell me more please."

"A jealous witch placed a horrible curse on her, which is the curse that you know. The curse is meant to be passed to females, but it can be passed to males, if that is the only heir, but if a girl is born, it will pass to the girl."

"Is there a possibility that the curse can be broken?"

"Only if you help someone with your power."

She sighed and looked to Vegeta who was smirking. "Well woman, just give me what you want, and you'll be free."

She grew disgusted with him. "I'll never help you! You're a monster, and I want nothing to do with you!" She got up and walked away from Vegeta and to her room and slammed the door behind her.

Andiun tried to get out of his chair, but Vegeta held him down. "W-what do you want?" He was so scared of Vegeta. He was a small fragile boy and could be broken easily. "Please don't hurt me."

"I'm not going to, if you help me out."

He nodded slowly. "What do you want with me?"

"I want do know how do make her help me."

Andiun didn't look like he knew he should tell Vegeta. "I don't know. Bulma said that-"

"Forget what she said! I want to know!" He came closer to Andiun as he raised his voice and the little boy was trembling.

"S-she won't help you unless…"he trailed off.

Vegeta became calm and lowered his voice in hope that Bulma would not hear. "Unless what?"

Andiun shook his head. "I don't want to tell you."

"Why?"

"Because it will kill her!"

"So!"

"But I don't want that to happen! She's the nicest person I've ever met! She's like a sister to me! I don't want her to die!"

"I'll kill you both if you don't tell me!"

Andiun knew that with all his heart that Vegeta was absolutely not lying and would kill them. "She's meant not to have happiness. It is said that if she finds true happiness with a man, then she will die."

Vegeta cursed under his breath. "How idiotic is that? That's the stupidest thing that I've ever heard! She has to love me to grant me my wish?"

"No, you misunderstood me! "

Vegeta grunted. "Will you get it right before I kill you anyway?"

"It is said that because she loves, she will find death."

Vegeta still cursed and rushed off into his room. "Darn it woman!"

Andiun went into his room and wept, thinking that he was going to lose Bulma now. He thought about the elder and how she died miserably and about how he might lose Bulma. All was lost for the small boy. All except for hope.
