Chapter 10 – The Test
Caroline awoke early in the morning feeling cold. She looked at herself, and realised it wasn't a dream at all. She sat up and looked around the room. Every bit of it reminded her of the fight between her and Frieza, and she felt dirty. She swung her legs to the side of the bed only to realise her feet rested on a body. She gasped, and realised Nappa was laying there, sleeping. She looked again, and noticed that Raditz and Vegeta were also taking a nap on the floor. She silently got off the bed and tiptoed towards her wardrobe. She opened the doors and put on a dressing-gown to cover her naked body. She walked up to Vegeta, bent down and started to shake him.
"Vegeta?" She whispered. He woke up straight away. He stretched and rubbed his eyes. Above him was Caroline's face staring back at his. Realising why he was where he was, he sat up.
"Are you ok?" He asked.
"I am now, yes."
"What happened?"
Caroline opened her mouth to reply, but found the words couldn't come out. Images of her and Frieza last night came back into her head and her eyes started to water.
"It was so horrible!" She chocked out, and started to sob. Her cries woke up the other Saiyans, and as they gained their vision, they went up to Caroline demanding to know what happened the night before.
"Frieza…he…he was too strong I couldn't escape…Frieza lied about my family…!"
"What? What about your family?" Vegeta questioned.
"They're dead! Frieza said that if I didn't marry him he'd kill them but they were already dead! I married him for nothing! I can't believe they're gone!"
"What happened after?"
"He put me on the bed…and then…" Caroline couldn't finish the sentence. She began to cry louder as she remembered every detail of the event the night before.
"He's sick." Vegeta said. "Just sick."
"That bastard needs to die!" Nappa joined in. "One day I'll kill him, I will!"
"Why did he do it?" Enquired Raditz.
"To get an heir to the throne." Replied Caroline. She sniffed and snivelled, and then found herself being scooped up into Vegeta's arms. "What are you doing?"
"Taking you to hospital. We need to find out if you're pregnant."
"You won't be able to find that out yet!"
"We'll see." He muttered. He looked at the clock and noticed it was 4:36am. "Good, everyone's still in bed, they won't hear us take you there. We'll need to wake up the doctor though."
"We can't do that, we'll do it in the morning."
"No, we need to find out now. Come on." He said to the other Saiyans, as they ran out of the room and made their way to the hospital.
They got to the doors. Raditz pressed a button and the electronic doors opened. There were tanks of strange water, and a big computer sat against the wall on the right. There were may other strange objects in here that Caroline had never seen before. At the back there was a spiral staircase which lead to a second floor. Nappa went to the second floor and explained the situation to a sleepy middle-aged doctor. However, the news of Caroline's rape woke him up and immediately and got straight to work.
"Hello, Your Highness." He said politely as Caroline gave a small smile and released herself from Vegeta's grasp. "The tests will be easy. First of all I need you to take the advanced pregnancy test. You use it like an ordinary pregnancy test like ones you get out of the Chemist. Wait a minute or two, and it will either turn blue, which is negative, pink, which is positive, or purple for inconclusive. If it is inconclusive, more tests will need to be taken. The toilets are just over there Your Highness, and good luck."
Caroline sniffed and took the test from the doctor's hands and she made her way to the toilets.
……………
The test was almost done. Now she just had to wait for the results. She stayed put on the toilet, thinking.
'If it's positive, I'll be having a baby I don't want. If it's negative, Frieza will keep raping me until I get pregnant. I wonder why he changed his mind so quickly about having a baby…'
The thoughts trailed out of her head as the bar turned into a colour. She got out of the toilets to tell everyone the news.
……………
"Inconclusive." She said in a clear voice.
"For God's sake!" Yelled Nappa. "I can't take the suspense!"
"Control yourself, Nappa." Vegeta said. "What other tests will she need?" He questioned the doctor.
The doctor took the test from Caroline's hands and placed it in the bin.
"What we need to do is…" The doctor began explaining as he started pointing at weird machines and mentioning the words "safe" and "will not harm" and "will definitely show if she's pregnant."
Caroline's nerves got to her and she started shaking.
"It's OK." The doctor reassured. "Even if you are pregnant, you can always have it terminated."
"No." She said. "The baby's done nothing wrong to deserve to die. Not only that, if Frieza finds out I'm not pregnant he'll keep raping me until I am! And we can't lie to him and say I have no eggs or anything because then he'll want tests and stuff and I'm just not sure if I can live this life anymore!" Caroline screamed. The doctor placed his hand on her shoulder.
"I know it must be hard."
"It's more than hard. The only way to stop him raping me is to have the child."
"But you can't! Vegeta protested. "You don't want this!"
"I know I don't!" She shouted back. "But there is nothing else I can do, Vegeta."
Vegeta clenched his fists in anger and eventually punched the wall.
"There must be something! There has to be something!"
"There isn't!" Wailed Caroline. "So live with it!"
"No! He will pay!"
"You said yourself you're not strong enough to challenge him! Besides I don't want you to get killed!"
Vegeta lowered his arms and calmed down.
"She's right." Said Raditz.
"I don't to want to believe iteither Vegeta but there is nothing we can do." Nappa agreed.
"So doctor, if we can continue with the tests, please?"
"Of course Your Highness."
……………
Forty-five minutes strolled by and the tests were done.
"The results will be confirmed in five minutes." The doctor said. Caroline nodded her head and waited with the three Saiyans.
"How are you feeling?" Nappa asked.
"If I'm honest, I don't know."
"Well I'm glad we only have five more minutes to wait, because if you're pregnant that Frieza is gonna get a surprise!" Vegeta started.
"No! You mustn't! None of you can! You have to promise! I don't want any of you getting in any unnecessary danger."
"He shouldn't be doing this to you!"
"I know he shouldn't, but he has!"
"And the damage has been done." The doctor butted in. "I'm sorry to say this Your Highness but…the tests have come back positive. I'm afraid you're having Frieza's baby."
All four of them started at the Doctor, not believing what he just said.
"I'm so sorry."
Caroline put her hand to her mouth to refrain her from making any noise, but she was so shocked she was unable to make any noise anyway. Suddenly she fell to the floor. She heard Vegeta cry "Caroline!" and people fussing around her, but then everything went black.
:..End Flashback..:
"My goodness…" Was the words that escaped ChiChi's mouth. "To think that monster got you…my goodness!"
"Man, that's why Vegeta wanted Frieza dead so much! Not just because he enslaved him but because of what he did to you!" Krillin said.
"Is Vegeta still washing up the dishes?" Caroline changed the subject. "He's taking his time."
Right on cue, Vegeta came out.
"Have you gone past that bit yet?" He asked.
"The bit where it's confirmed I'm pregnant? Yes." She replied.
"Good."
Vegeta joined everyone again. He sat back in his normal place, his back turned against Bulma.
"But why did he want the baby so suddenly?" Yamcha asked. "Did you ever find out?"
"No. But I tell you what, I'm so glad he's dead."
"I take it you had the baby?" Goku guessed.
"Well hold on!" Caroline smiled. "I have to explain this next bit before I get to the next significant event. After I revived from my faint, Frieza was told the news. Obviously he was delighted, and within a couple of hours the whole Universe found out. Two months went by, and this is what happened..."
