"…Now you die," King Vegeta said angrily. The entire guard ran up and surrounded Raven.
Raven surveyed the advancing guardsmen. She gestured for Bardock , Goten and Trunks to move out of the way. One guard drew a sword, a scimitar, deeply notched. Raven herself drew a short sword, crouching in a fighting position best suited to the weapon. The warrior hurled himself at Raven. She nimbly blocked his weapon. Steel upon steel hissed more cold than a winter wind. Raven skillfully used her speed over power. Metal rang as she jumped and swiped, catching his blade sharply as he blocked. The fight only took a minute before Raven found a weak spot. She slashed with her blade, severing his tail at the mid-point. It was crippling, the man fell to the ground with a harsh scream, rolling over unconscious.
"Anybody next!" Raven yelled out a challenge, sheathing her blade. A swarm of guards rushed her. They seized her arms, and tail, three holding her as another advanced. A ball of energy glowed in his fist. Raven struggled, biting at her captors, kicking and raging. The man put his glowing ball of energy to her gut. The blast should have killed any lesser being. Raven's eyes shrank to pinpricks as blood flew from her mouth as she tried to breath. She was released and she crumpled to the ground, twitching and holding her stomach.
But much to the shock of everyone in the presence, she stumbled to her feet, panting and growling in between. "You will pay for that!
Raven bent over in concentration. Ki began to flicker around her body. The men surrounding her leaned back, eyes twitching in fear. Raven gave a metallic scream as her aura lashed erratic waves of energy into the air. Laced with deadly electricity generated by the power up, the guards did stand a chance. Everyone within a few meter's range was fried.
She looked around, looking for a point of escape. There was none. One drew a sword and advanced. "Swords eh, I thought you could do better than that." She bent over in concentration, to a power deep inside. The swordsman raised his weapon and slashed downward, but it stopped in midair. Everyone within a ten feet around her were held in place by the energy being taken from them, enough to make a difference in Raven. Her eyes lit up and with a giant bang and a fierce power up, all those caught by her energy were electrocuted to death.
King Vegeta stumbled back, his eyes twitching. Hovering above a crater in his throne room was a girl with electricity sparking over her and a wild took in her cold eyes. She wasn't super Saiyan, but more powerful than any member of the Royal family (excluding Trunks). Her back arched and with a scream an orb of energy formed around her and the dead bodies were blasted into oblivion.
Raven calmed and landed, even with a power down electricity ran over her. Everyone seamed to be afraid. Good, that's what they try and kill me. Hmm, what's Bardock so afraid at, is it me. She looked around, anger fading from her. Everyone was afraid of her, except for Goten and Trunks, who looked surprised. She stepped out of the hole and coasted towards the King, slowly and menacingly. He tripped as he walked backwards and sat on the floor with total fear in his eyes.
Raven stopped and hovered, and stared at the cowering man. "Get up." He looked at her and tried to crawl away but failed. Raven kicked him and repeated , "Get up." When he refused this time she picked King Vegeta up by his collar and stared him in the eye. "Coward," he winced, "A disgrace to the Saiyan people. A king, that crawls on the floor, expecting too fool a child. I'm disgusted, I would die before I called you King," She tossed him to the floor like a rag doll, he rolled a few times before she phased out and stopped him with her foot. "I should kill you now as a weakling, but I won't. I'll leave you to suffer with wounded pride." Raven spat on his face and walked back to Bardock, to him she said, "let's get outta here."
Raven felt cold steel nick her neck; the King had retrieved the blackened sword from his swordsman. "You will stop and die now."
Just then, Prince Vegeta walked in the room, "Father, I demand a new scouter, mine exploded."
Raven slipped under the bladed, and got a small knife from her sleeve and pressed it to the prince's throat. "This brat will live only if we can go peacefully." She whispered to the king, who dropped his blade, stunned she could get away so fast. She backed out, and Goten and Trunks followed. Bardock hesitated and then took off after the four.
Bardock watched the palace fade into the distance. He flew up beside Raven, "What the Hell are you doing he'll get more powerful people on our tails now."
The prince struggled, especially since the one holding him was younger, he was thirteen and she didn't even look nine, "Let go of me or I'll have you arrested."
"Stop moving or I'll kill you." She looked ahead in the sky. A forest was appearing in the distance.
Trunks almost yelled, but didn't "you can't kill him."
Raven wasn't going to kill anyone, it was just a threat to make the prince hold still. Trunks was serious, there was something that made him protect the prince.
"We have to hide," Raven landed and released Vegeta, "before those idiots realized what just happened."
I am the Prince, heir to the throne, I demand what is going on." He ordered.
Raven gave a short laugh; "looks like the princeling had a temper. You're our ticket off this planet now."
Bardock gasped, "That was your plan? To kidnap the prince to get off the planet? Stupid, do you realize what you've done, now the entire planet is going to be looking for us."
"Even if we had of escaped the old fashioned way and ran the entire planet would still be looking for us and we'd have no way to to bribe ourselves way off this planet either, so I support my decision grandfather." She snapped at him.
Trunks just stared at Vegeta, who scowled, "It's not a zoo, go stare at someone else."
Trunks scowled back, "I can do what I want too."
Bardock looked from Vegeta to Trunks, their scowl was the same and so were their faces, it clicked, "Trunks, is he your dad?"
"What!" Vegeta reeled back, "I'm not a father, I don't even know about the dirty deed, let alone have done it. And the age he's at, I would have been four years old to have."
"Lucky," Goten chirped, "We have sex-ed. When were 4th grade, which we are in right now."
Vegeta and Bardock looked disgusted, "they teach you how to do it, that's disturbing?"
Goten shook his head, "No they talk about it not teach how it's done."
Trunks jumped on his friend's head to shut him up, "That's enough Goten, I feel disturbed now."
"… And what wet dreams are and why my mom gets so mean every month…"
Trunks shoved a rock in Goten's mouth who got the point and stopped talking about it. But he did know one way to get Trunks laughing, he leaned over to his friend's ear, took the rock out, and whispered, "scrotum," in his ear.
Trunks burst out laughing and started to roll on the ground, crying he was laughing so hard. Goten had done this during one of those evil classes and gotten the same effect, during a movie on how a baby is made (they really did show that OO). He had gotten in school suspension and a referral.
Vegeta looked grossed out, but tried to slip away in the tree. Raven popped up infront of him. "No you don't," He growled and was lead back to were the rest stood, Trunks was just getting a hold of himself.
"Goten hahaha, don't hehehe, do that again ahahahahaha…" Trunks stuttered out and went back to laughing.
"Really," Bardock said, "it wasn't that funny." But the truth was , he was grinning.
"Hey, Goten said, there's a cave." He pointed to what looked like a small who between some roots.
Raven poked her head in, "it is a cave, it's small at first, but it gets roomy. Good find Goten."
"I'm gonna go collect some firewood, Vegeta, come, I need to explain something." Raven beckoned the prince, who scowled and followed her into the woods.
"What do you want?" he asked as she started to pick up some fallen branches.
"I wanted you to came because," she dumped an armload into his hands, only her look kept him from dropping them. "Goten, Trunks, and I are from the future." Vegeta started to talk but she cut him off. "I may be younger, and a lower class, but we need your help. You can come with us, or we'll leave you on this planet, but in a few day's were gonna leave and need you to pretend your kidnapped on a camera, can you do that. Until then you'll be treated like you should, be fed like the rest of us, and be treated like us."
"I'll only agree since you made an idiot out of my fool father, deal." He held out his hand for a shake.
Raven spat on her hand, "deal, and Trunks is your future son, I met you before we were sent back in time. You gotta temper."
Vegeta grinned, took her hand and gave his hand a jerk to seal the agreement, "As always."
