Chapter 5: Nappa, a father?(6 months later)
Carisca bit her lip. She didn't know what sort of reaction she should have. The test was positive. How the hell was she going to ask Frieza for maternity leave? She wasn't supposed to be pregnant, no yet! Nappa took the news well. He was very excited at the prospect of having a son. His glee was masked by Vegeta's constant badgering about the whole thing. Raditz asked Carisca constantly how a baby got inside her. Finally Carisca had to sit him down and have "the talk" with him. Raditz managed to make many faces through the whole talk and said it was gross that she did that with Nappa. Vegeta heard the "talk" too, he didn't find the idea gross, but he did find it a bit amusing.
"Zarbon, I need to ask for a favor." Carisca said nervously. The green haired man looked down his nose at her. He sighed heavily. "What is it?"
"I was wondering if I could stop having missions assigned for me, just for a few months." Carisca said. "You see, well, I'm….I'm pregnant." Zarbon's looked like someone had just punched him in the face. "What!" He yelled. "How did this happen!"
"Well, you see Zarbon, when a man and a women get together…." Nappa began.
"I know that you dult!" Zarbon growled. "I was wondering how the hell you could let something like this happen! How could you stupid monkeys be so careless! Lord Frieza doesn't have any use for a pregnant female fighter! And he sure the hell doesn't need anymore Saiyan children running around this ship!" Zarbon's blue face had become a bright red.
"I'll only be pregnant for a few months." Carisca said. "Besides, don't you think another Saiyan would be a valuable asset to Frieza's forces?" Zarbon was silent for a moment, he was deep in thought. "I'll go talk to Lord Frieza. He's not going to be very happy about this." Zarbon stalked off, Nappa and Carisca watched him go.
"What happens if Frieza makes me get rid of the baby?" Carisca asked, terror in her eyes. All Frieza would have to do was order she have an abortion. "Don't worry." Nappa said holding Carisca tight against him. "He won't kill our son."
Carisca buried her face in Nappa's side. She was scared, she couldn't bare to think of what Frieza might do. He would not take her child from her, she would not allow that! As long as she still had breath in her body, she would do anything to make sure her son was born. Anything.
Frieza thumped his tail angerly against the floor. "Zarbon, I thought you were going to keep an eye on those two!" Frieza snapped.
"I'm sorry sir, I tried to keep them busy with missions, but they seemed to still find time to conceive a child." Zarbon protested.
"We should have just disposed of the woman from the very beginning." Frieza said. "I knew her and that oversized oaf would attempt to repopulate the Saiyan race."
"Would you like me to do something about it sir?" Zarbon asked. "Perhaps order her to have an abortion?"
"No Zarbon, I want her permanently disposed of." Frieza said. "Why don't you send her on one last mission. Sending her to planet Vulcar should do the trick." Frieza smiled evilly. "Of course sir, I'll order her there right away." Zarbon said bowing.
"Oh, and Zarbon, why don't you tell them congratulations for me." Frieza said.
"Of course sir." Zarbon said licking his lips. Soon the woman would be no more, the only hope for the Saiyan race would be gone forever. He left Frieza's command room and went to find the two Saiyans.
The news stunned Carisca. She wasn't in trouble? Frieza had congratulated them? Zarbon had told her she was to go on one last mission, then she could have all the time off she needed. She lay in Nappa's arms, listening to his deep breathing as he slept. She ran a finger over his large biceps, his chest heaved with every breath he took. He opened his eyes, and looked at her. "Can't sleep?" He asked, reaching over her and taking her in his arms. He kissed her.
Neither one of them knew it would be the last night they would ever spend together.
Note: I havn't had time to put up another chapter. Hopefully by next week I'll have the story finished. If I have time I might even have the next chapter up by Friday. So stay tunned, and be patient.
