Okay, let me start by saying that I am extremely sorry for this. I haven't updated in a long time and I promise you that I'll never neglect this story like this ever again! It's just that…I got really busy and everything and…I'm sorry! With the Dragonball Z uncut showing, the buzz is back and I was determined to find a really good AU and I couldn't find a lot, so I had to write this again! I just had to. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry! Now its summer and I don't have excuses. I'll be good, I promise!

Chapter 24

Me no own

"What?" Vegeta was a little more confused than angry, but it was quickly changing into pure anger as he replayed the words that Kakarot had just spoken to him. Kakarot had never defied him before. "What did you just say?"

Kakarot wouldn't even look at Vegeta or Bulma. He just kept his eyes on the nurse and she had a stubborn smirk on her face. Her face only made Vegeta more suspicious. Vegeta had never trusted her, and it was with good reason, obviously. "I want to stay with her. I don't want to leave without her."

"Kakarot" she said softly, and she tried to sound humble "you've got to leave with your friends now."

He actually looked like a hopeful child who couldn't get that toy he wanted for Christmas, and when they had waited for all year and then Christmas finally came, their heart was broken. His eyes had a panic in them, but for some reason, he had to obey. "I want you." He glanced at Vegeta and Bulma with a look of almost fear in his eyes. The thought of leaving her for them made him horrified. "I don't want to leave you." He grabbed her hand, but not passionately, it was desperately.

She looked down at his hand on hers and she tried to hide her smile. "Kakarot, get dressed. You can't stay with me. You've got things to do, and so do I."

"This is insane!" Bulma finally yelled. "What about Chi-Chi? What about her? I know you're in love with her. There's no other reason why you would have let her live after so many instances. Not only that, you slept with her."

"You marked her, Kakarot" Vegeta pointed out. 'He's got more loyalty than this. It's the girl. She's done something. I don't know what, but she has.' "Kakarot, open your eyes and realize what you're talking about. We've got to kill Frieza, and we shouldn't waist any time." Vegeta waited for Kakarot to say something. Any response would do. He just didn't want him to sit like an idiotic doll while that girl pulled his strings. "Kakarot, we're leaving in twenty minutes." Vegeta turned around and stepped out of the room, with Bulma following, nearly surprised that she could walk after such a shocking thing.

"Kakarot's not himself" Bulma whispered in hopes of Kakarot not hearing. "He's nuts! He really cares for Chi-Chi. Something must be wrong with his mind, Vegeta." Bulma crossed her arms and waited for Vegeta to speak up and say something to comfort her. "Come on Vegeta, I'm waiting for your bright ideas."

Before Vegeta could respond, the green haired culprit walked out of the hospital room with a smile on her face. She was proud of her handy work that she had done. "I'm sorry for that. I wasn't expecting Kakarot to do that. I'm actually flattered that it happened that way." Bulma could tell that there was something behind her smile. There was something mischievous about her smile.

"Cut the crap" stated the impatient Vegeta. "What are you doing to Kakarot? There's no way he could betray his harpy for another one, so speak up before I blast you into the next dimension, and believe me when I say that I will."

She decided to drop the innocence act. It wasn't going to get her anywhere. "Now, I don't think that I'll be spending any time in the after life, not with Kakarot taking my side on this issue."

"And why exactly would he do that?" Bulma asked. "If you're pulling anything funny, Kakarot will be the first person to put you in your place." Her smile only widened when Kakarot stepped out of the room fully dressed and ready to go. "Doesn't look like he's sticking on your side to me" Bulma said arrogantly.

"Kakarot" the green haired female asked "who exactly do you want to stay with."

"With you" he said without any hesitation.

"And why is that?" she asked.

"Because I love you."

"Love?" Vegeta cocked an eyebrow at Kakarot. He hadn't heard the word really used that much at all, but he especially hadn't heard it said by a Saiyan. Kakarot had never said the word before, and Bulma was a witness to that. He had never said the word from what Bulma and Vegeta knew, and to say it to a stranger, no matter how beautiful she was, was too much of a coincidence. "Kakarot, you're being controlled. This woman is somehow messing with your mind."

"Messing with my mind?" he asked. "That's impossible. With my powers, no one can get inside my mind and take control, and I would know if someone was trying. I just" he shrugged his shoulders. "I'm in love with her."

"Don't be stupid, Kakarot!"

"What about Chi-Chi?" asked Bulma angrily. "Don't you still have feelings for her? I thought you loved her! I thought you were in love with her."

"Don't be a fool" Kakarot said harshly. "Why would I want to be with a loud and violent harpy such as Chi-Chi?" He pulled the green haired women into his arms. "She's the only person I'm concerned about." He had a deep passion in his eyes for her. It was extremely unnatural. "She's the most beautiful woman that I've ever known."

Bulma's rage began to flare. "Oh, is that so?" 'What an idiot! I look better than her!' "Well, what about your sister? What about her? Who's going to take care of her?"

"That freak is not my sister! Don't assume that she is! My sister was never born!" He only pulled the girl closer to him. "Canella is mine."

"What did you do?" Vegeta asked Canella. "Undo it or I'll snap your neck." She didn't answer, and Vegeta grabbed her by her neck and tossed her down the hall. Kakarot looked as if he was about to explode when Vegeta touched her. He was ready to rip his throat out. Kakarot grabbed Vegeta up by his armor and pinned him to the wall. "What are you doing, Kakarot? Unhand me at once!"

"How dare you touch her like that? How dare you hurt my woman?"

"Your woman? The last time I checked, you decided to oddly enough, mate with an idiotic and stubborn Earth girl who had tried to kill you! Now all of the sudden, you're madly in love with her? You want to be with her now? You haven't known her for more than a week! You can't possibly be in love with someone that fast! I don't care what kind of a woman she is, she's using you. She probably works for Frieza and plans to kill us."

"Liar!" Vegeta forced Kakarot off of him, but Kakarot was quick to punch Vegeta right through a wall, into another patient's room.

Bulma was horrified at what the two of them were about to do. They were about to fight one another and while Vegeta was trying to at first prevent it, he wasn't going to let Kakarot provoke him any longer. He would just simply kill Kakarot. Not only were they about to fight each other for blood, but they were about to harm a lot of innocent people in the process. A hospital wasn't the right type of place to have a battle to the death. She decided the best way to stop Kakarot, was to stop his influence. She ran down the hall to Canella. She obviously had something to do with it. She hated when Vegeta was right, but boy was he right! "You're going to pay for this!"

Canella had stood to her feet and she only could smirk. "Don't mess with me girl." Bulma still got a good punch in, that managed to knock Canella into the elevator, but she quickly gained her composure and flew out, only to kick Bulma back, knocking her into the service desk, only a few feet away from the elevators. "You know, I figured you all would figure it out, but by then, I knew it would be too late to do anything about it, so I decided to go on with my plan."

"What plan?" Bulma asked getting up. All of the workers decided to make a run for it, but Canella blasted them before they could get the chance to escape. "I work for Frieza. He hired me for a great deal of money to destroy the Saiyans, and everything is working out quite nicely, even better than what he expected."

Bulma smiled. "You shouldn't have told me your plan. Once I tell Kakarot-"

"Even if you tell Kakarot, he won't care. You could tell him that I even plan to kill him, and it wouldn't matter. He loves me. The type of love he feels for me doesn't even exist in your eyes. He would walk on water if I told him, or die trying. He can't stand the thought of being without me, and disobeying my orders would destroy him. He no longer belongs to Vegeta. Kakarot's loyalties belong to me and soon, he'll kill you and everyone else I tell him to, including Chi-Chi and that so called sister of his."

"What do you know about them?"

"Oh I know all about Kakarot. I've been inside his mind. I've seen everything. I've seen his fears, his passions, his doubts, his strength, everything. I saw when his mother died. I saw when he killed Chi-Chi's father. I saw when he first met you." She chuckled. "Did you know that he developed feelings for you, but only for a short while? I don't see why, though." She enjoyed the look of anger that Bulma had on her face. "I even saw how much he cared for that Chi-Chi girl, and I know how hard it is for him to accept Colleen as his sister, but I know that he had begun to try and accept it. I know everything about him, and I mean everything." Bulma dropped to her knees and began to scream, as she felt her mind began to be infiltrated and tampered with. The thoughts that were going into her mind were too much. She felt like her head was about to explode. "Do you see my power Bulma? Don't fight it. You'll be brain dead in a few seconds."

"Vegeta!" she screamed.

Vegeta and Kakarot had managed to already destroy half the hospital. They had killed many patients, but neither of them cared. Vegeta didn't care because he just never did care about the lives that he took and Kakarot only cared about Canella. She was all he cared about. "Bulma?" Vegeta flew from Kakarot, but Kakarot was right behind him as they both flew back to Bulma. Vegeta blasted Canella through twelve different walls before she could do any more harm to Bulma, but Bulma still passed out. Vegeta ran over to her, to make sure she was alright, but there was no way to tell. She looked as if she was in pain.

"How dare you!" Kakarot began to power up for an attack. His intentions were purely to kill Vegeta. "Don't touch her!" The energy that began to surround his hands was a light blue color and it began to swirl. "I'll kill you for this, Vegeta!"

Vegeta picked up Bulma, knowing that he couldn't block the attack very well if she was in his arms. 'That's his signature move!' "Bulma?" He tried to wake her up, but Bulma wasn't responding. 'Great, what did the woman do to her?' "Kakarot, stop this now!"

"Is the great Prince of Saiyans afraid to fight a low level solider?"

"Prince?" he questioned Vegeta. "Kakarot, you address me as-"

"You are no longer my King! You are my enemy!" He increased his energy. "You will die! Riot Javelin!"

Vegeta blasted a hole through the ceiling, and it didn't stop until it went outside to the roof. Vegeta flew with Bulma in his arm out of the building and hovered for a while, waiting for Kakarot to come out. 'He's completely lost his mind. I'll have to kill him.' "Bulma?" she still wouldn't respond to his voice. 'He's going to pay for this.' "Kakarot!" Vegeta waited and waited, but all was silent for about a minute, which can seem like an eternity on the battlefield. All of the sudden, in a flash, the hospital exploded, leaving no signs of Kakarot or Canella. Vegeta had to leave to escape the blast. With Bulma in his arms, things weren't looking up for the two of them. 'He has gotten more powerful. He's perfected his father's technique as well.'

Not even a half hour later, Vegeta was back on his ship, with Bulma still unconscious. Bulma was only half his problem. The screaming Chi-Chi was another. "What about Kakarot? We just can't leave him here! What if Frieza was to show up? He's sick. He can't make it by himself!" She was extra emotional and putting her out of her misery might have been the best thing to do, but he knew he couldn't quite do that.

Vegeta smelt her scent and noticed the little bit of weight that she had managed to put on. It wasn't much to go off on, but it was enough to guess. The scent never lied. "Woman, it's best to forget about Kakarot right now."

"But why? We can't get leave him or forget about him."

"Coming here was a set up" he practically yelled. He was so frustrated. He just wanted to leave. He didn't care if Kakarot's mind was being controlled somehow. He still didn't like be defied by Kakarot. "Kakarot's not coming back with us." He calmed down. "We're leaving. If you want to stay, then be my guest."

Chi-Chi felt like breaking down and crying. "Well, is he dead?" Vegeta decided that he wasn't going to answer her questions. "I have a right to know!" Vegeta still wouldn't answer her. She would only begin to cry and blubber like an idiot. "I have a right to know!" It was already too late. She started to cry. "I'm pregnant Vegeta. I'm pregnant with his child." She wiped her tears away. "We only did it a few times, but it's not like we had protection or anything like that." She began to speak much softer. "Kakarot and I were virgins, so we didn't think it really mattered." She couldn't keep herself from crying. "Do I have to raise this kid alone?"

Vegeta sighed. "He's not dead, woman."

For one brief second, Chi-Chi smiled with relief. The thought of Kakarot dying was too much for her to bear. She had quickly fallen for him and at an unbelievable pace. "Then why are we leaving him?"

Vegeta sighed. "Because he's the enemy." He said nothing more. He left her alone and confused. He didn't have time to deal with her. Kakarot knew the exact location of their ship and with no mental barrier up, Vegeta couldn't take the chance of looking for Kakarot. "How could you do something like that Kakarot? How could you be so weak?"

"How did you accomplish it?" Dadoria began to ask Canella questions with astonishment as he gazed at the Saiyan standing in front of him. Kakarot had no look of aggression in his eyes. He looked at peace. "I must know. We couldn't even find them. I assumed his mind would be too powerful to corrupt." Only Dadoria had accompanied Canella to this planet in order to destroy Kakarot. They were now hidden away in the forest, safe from Vegeta's eyes, not that Vegeta was ready to run into Dadoria anyway.

"It was, but with him being so sick, he couldn't defend himself." She smiled as she touched Kakarot's face. "His mind was completely mine for the taking." She glanced at Dadoria. "Don't think too much of this. He's not loyal to you, he's loyal to me."

"And what do you plan on doing with him, besides destroying Prince Vegeta?"

She smirked and told Kakarot "Kiss me, Kakarot." It was the first time Dadoria had seen real emotion in Kakarot's eyes. He was ecstatic when she gave him that command. He kissed her long, and he kissed her passionately. When she backed out of it she simply answered "I'm very interested in this Saiyan. I've heard that they were the best lovers in the galaxy."

"Huh," he said surprised, disgusted, and irritated. Canella was a rare beauty. The thought of her being wasted on a Saiyan was nauseating. He then smirked and said "then you should consider me."

She rolled her eyes and then looked at Dadoria with pure abhorrence. "Please Dadoria, don't make me through up." She glanced into Kakarot's eyes. "Kakarot, do you wish to kill Dadoria? You know, he killed Toma and all of your father's other friends. Would it please you to kill him?"

"Yes" he answered without hesitation, but still no aggression.

"But would you?"

"Only if it would please you to do so."

She chuckled as Dadoria whispered "Astounding. He's a slave to Master Frieza now."

She cocked an eyebrow. "Oh really?" She stepped away from Kakarot and said "Kill him."

Kakarot's aggressive behavior came back into his eyes and before Dadoria could even react, Kakarot had blasted a hole right through Dadoria. "But…but why?" he said with his dying breath.

"It's a good thing you caught him off guard" she started to laugh sadistically. "You are no slave to Frieza, you are mine and mine alone Kakarot, and I have no master." She calmed down. "We'll tell Frieza that Prince Vegeta killed Dadoria." She wrapped her arms around Kakarot's neck. "Your pretty little blue headed friend finished an invention today."

"The gravity chamber?"

"Yes Kakarot. I'm talking about the gravity chamber. I know you're smart too, just like your father, even though you don't always show your genius. Now tell me Kakarot, do you have the ability to make one?"

"Yes."

"Then I want you to make one and train yourself. I want you to become more powerful than Prince Vegeta, and then I want you to kill him. Do I make myself clear, Kakarot?"

"Yes."

"Good" she touched his face gently. "You know Kakarot; I do believe that you and I can make a great team. You're a mechanical genius. I can see it. If only you would apply yourself. You're a great fighter, and I know if you work hard enough, you can surpass Prince Vegeta, and your mind…" She stepped closer to him. "Your mind is great. To read minds is a power that I myself possess. I can enter them and destroy them if I wish, but to see the future is a power that I do not possess Kakarot." She became so excited as she thought of all the things she could accomplish with Kakarot by her side. She had dreams of power and now they were becoming a reality. "If I were to have your heir, he or maybe even she would be the most powerful creature in the galaxy. Kakarot, we could rule the world, and not even Frieza could stand in our way."

Kakarot looked up into the sky and saw Vegeta's ship as it flew away. "Prince Vegeta is leaving. What should we do?"

"Another time will come, Kakarot. Just concentrate on me right now. I swear to you that all will be well in time."

"Is she dead?" asked Colleen to Vegeta as she gazed at Bulma.

'She finally learns to speak and now I have to deal with four females alone.' Vegeta was standing in a corner as he watched Bulma sleep on the bed they had been sharing for a while now. She looked as if she was in pain, but there was no way to tell if she was okay. 'I wonder' He looked at Colleen and noticed that she had learned a lot and quickly 'Perhaps she can learn to use her abilities like Kakarot has.' He sighed. 'If she would be willing to work against her brother.' Vegeta didn't want to admit that he was worried about Bulma, but if Bulma was to die, then Kakarot would have to suffer. It didn't matter that they were the only two out of the three Saiyans left and it didn't matter that Kakarot was almost like a brother to him. No one was to defy King Vegeta, and no one messed with his property. 'You had better pull through Bulma.' He wasn't aware that he had cared so much for her. 'Kakarot, you had better hope she lives.'

Chi-Chi was in her room crying, alone. 'Kakarot, what are you doing?'

One week later…

"I am glad to see that you have returned Canella" Frieza was playing with a glass of wine on his throne as he looked upon the familiar face of Kakarot. "I remember killing his father. The fool thought he could stop me."

Canella noticed the anger in Kakarot's eyes. He was ready to strike, if she were to give the word. Kakarot was practically shaking from rage. "Kakarot, stand down." He began to calm himself. "Frieza, he's loyal to me, but he will kill Prince Vegeta. You have my word on that."

"Good" Frieza said right before he took a sip of his wine. "But I have some things I would like for him to do, in order to prove he can be trusted. They're just a few jobs that I would like him to do."

Canella didn't quite like that Frieza didn't take her word, but she nodded to Kakarot, signaling that Frieza was his new master. "Yes Lord Frieza" Kakarot bowed down before him. "I will do as you ask."

Frieza began to laugh quietly and conservatively, but it soon grew into a sadistic and twisted laugh filled with insanity. "Now the race of Saiyans will end by Kakarot's hands!"

TO BE CONTINUED…..

A/N: Uh oh! Kakarot's turned to the dark side! But he was the chosen one! He's supposed to bring down Frieza, not join him. He's supposed to bring balance to the universe, not leave it in darkness! I'm sorry; I still have a Star Wars buzz. But anyway, yeah Kakarot's really evil now. Vegeta has to kill him, or will Kakarot kill Vegeta? Review and I promise I won't take months to update! I'll do it this weekend!
