I blinked. My vision is blurry, but I can make out a face looking over me. A man maybe? No, it's a woman. Things get clearer, yes, it is a woman. Her features are gentle as she smiles softly at me. Gentle. I word I hadn't used to describe someone's features in a long time. Her hair is thick and black and tied behind her head. Her eyes are sharp and dark. Black. She has tanned skin.
"Welcome back," She says in a whisper. It's the kindest tone anyone has had with me since I've been here. She is dabbing my forehead with a cool, wet cloth. I just stare at her with my stoic face while she smiles and tries to soothe me. "Would you like anything?" I don't answer, I don't even move. I can't move. My body hurts and feels heavy. "You've had quite a time, haven't you?"
There's a knock on the door and a large man enters. I recognize him from somewhere. The woman turns, "Bardock," she says. Yes, I remember now. The man who rescued me… and the man who let them take me. I can't decide whether to hate him or thank him. Hating him would be safer. I mustn't let them get the best of me. "She's awake, but she seems a little… out of it."
'Out of it?' Wouldn't you be out of it if you've lived years in slavery, getting beatings for making even a quiet noise at the wrong time? I felt like asking her this, but I just stared.
"At least she's alive," Bardock says, "Kakkarot, Raditz, go get the tub filled with warm water."
"Yes Father," I hear two young, male voices say. Then footsteps lead away from the room.
"Darling," The woman says while looking at Bardock, "Please start the fire."
"Alright," Bardock says. The woman looks at me again and smiles.
"My name is Ming," She tells me, (I couldn't think of anything) "Bardock is my mate, and Kakkarot and Raditz are our sons. They are pretty nice for Saiyan boys… you might like them."
"…" I just stare at her with a blank face.
"I'll get you right again," She says gently. But I feel myself pull away from this world again. I feel the darkness return and shut my eyes. I fall asleep.
