Ukyo meets her destiny

Trunks stands in front of the young Queen Ukyo. He was taken back by her good looks. ' Man, she is so beautiful. Her hair is almost like her brother's, accept for those red streaks. And her eyes are drawing me in…'

Ukyo narrows her eyes at Trunks. She stands up and walks over to him.

" Saiyan… what business do you have on my planet! Your kind are not welcome here. So before I get violent… get out of my site."

Trunks was taken back but Ukyo. " Listen… I'm not bad!" He tried to inch closer to Ukyo but he couldn't move his body. " What's wrong? Why can't I move?"

" You are pretty dumb for a Saiyan. But then again all you are is a murderous monkey!"

" Now hold on! I'm not a murder! I don't kill innocent people. I protect the innocent." Trunks shouted, " My world was devistated by murders… I know what its like."

" No you don't! I'm losing everything. My parents are dead because of a Saiyan attack, my brother is slowly dying…. Our old ways are dying as well… I'm the last of the royal family that believe in the old ways."

Keke comes walking in besides her elder sister. " I think you are being a bit rough on the boy. I mean really, he doesn't look like the murderous type too me."

" Of course he is! All Saiyans are! It is in their nature to kill and destroy things.

Trunks' face turns serious. " Listen, my ship was damaged as it landed… I need time to repair it."

Ukyo stared at Trunks. " Very well… you may have time to fix your ship. However I shall not allow you inside the city walls. As long as you are on this planet you shall remain in the Sankanjin lands! If you step on foot on Kanjin soil I will kill you."

" Sis your being a bit harsh…"

" Don't tell me how to do things! This is my planet. I am its ruler and I am only doing what I think its necessity to protect our people and preserve our way of life."

" Your so stubborn UKYO!"

" That's just how I am sister. Now you keep an eye of our 'guest'. If he requires anything… send one of the low levels to treave it."

" Very well… Come with me Trunks."

The warriors walked out of the throne room and out to where Trunks' ship landed. Trunks' third class friend was waiting for him. Trunks turned to Keke. " What is your sister's deal? Was she always so mean?"

Keke turned her dark eyes toward Trunks. " She simply doesn't trust Saiyans." She glanced him over. "Though I can't possibly see what she fears from you."

" Well I guess its because I'm strong. I understand that she has had some hard times but this... I don't know what I can do to gain her trust... if that is possible. She seems..." Trunks broke off and looked away from Keke. He was brushing. ' I can't believe I just said that.'

Keke grinned. " Do you perhaps have feelings for my sister?" She turned to face him and caught his blush. "She is very beautiful."

Trunks blushed even more. " Alright I'm guilty. I do have some feelings for her. I just don't understand why she can't see that I'm not treat. Uh… what will happen if I can't get my ship running?"

Keke giggled. " Well you heard my sister." She winked. " She'll come and hunt you down."

Trunks gulped. "I don't really know if that's such a bad thing." He chuckled.

Keke glanced at him strangely. " Just a forewarning because i like you so much, but if any of the guards hear you talking of my sister that way you will be in serious trouble."

Trunks laughed. " What could they possibly do to me?" He asked.

" Well my sisters guards are quite powerful. And here on our planet... if a Saiyan and Kanjin ever well you know have a baby... they are classified as Sankanjins and most times the Kanjin parent gets hunted down and is killed. But in your case... they might just kill you and torture my sister."

Trunks paled. " Oh, um, I'll make sure not to knock your sister up." He flushed. " I mean, I'll just stay away from her period." He said fearfully.

Keke grinned. " I thought you were a strong Saiyan, scared of a little death?" She teased.

Trunks' mood sombered. " No, death is something I've grown accustomed to. You can't really help the world and destroy it, because in the end it's always there." He said sadly

Keke frowned. " I'm sorry for bringing up bad memories." She bowed her head. "When our family was ripped apart I felt sadness too." She admitted softly.

Trunks looked curiously at the young girl. "You know, I never heard the whole story about your parents deaths, all I know is that we were blamed for it."

Keke stopped dead in her tracks. " Well it all started when I was young. At the time, the Saiyan empire was interesting in conquering our people. Well my parents were the rulers of our planet at the time. My eldest sibling, Keiko, the heir to the throne at that time helped our parents get aboard one of the Saiyan ships. Somehow they had developed technology that was equal to Frieza's. Well anyway, the ruler King Vegeta meets my parents there. Our parents fought with all their might but they were no match for the royal guards of the Saiyan King. They were tortured for days before King Vegeta finally killed them. King Vegeta sent their bodies back to our planet and it horrified Ukyo to the point she lost all goodness she had possessed. My brother was lucky... he escaped with his life, but one of the Saiyan scientists injected some kind of virus into my brother and he's been dying ever since then. As a result of his sickness, Ukyo was forced to take over and i think you know what happened after that. That is what happened all those years ago..."

Trunks shook his head. " Wow. I can't believe my grandfather would do that!" He said in shock.

Keke nodded. " Well that is why Saiyans are thought of as evil, they kill simply for the pleasure of the hunt." She sighed. "Galaxies have been destroyed and conquered by your ancestors." She said pointedly.

" It can't end this way, there has to be something we can do." Trunks said desperately. " I won't let this hating continue!"

Keke shook her head. " Trunks, this is the only life we know, you can't change what has been for centuries." She smiled and patted his shoulder. "Our races are just too different." She shrugged.

" Well our race has changed. We are no longer the mass murders who you once feared. I came here to change all that, and some how make an alliance... It's not fair that your sister has to live with such baggage. She should be happy. I just hope I can prove that to here."

Keke frowned doubtfully. " Well Ukyo is a hard shell to crack." She chuckled. "She's so by the book that she could probably recite the stupid thing to you from memory."

Trunks grinned. "So pretty much all she needs is a little fun." He said thoughtfully.

Keke laughed. " I would say a lot of fun. I don't think she has truly smiled in years." She said wistfully.

Trunks smiled. " Well with my help we'll have her smiling before I'm chased off the planet." He joked.

Keke grinned. " That would be nice."

Trunks gained a thoughtful expression. "You know, come to think of it, you're being very nice to me even though it's obvious that your siblings hate mixed breeds." Trunks pointed out.

Keke flushed. " Well I find that I get along better lower classes." She replied offhandedly.

Trunks watched as her cheeks gained a bright crimson color. " Keke, you're hiding something aren't you?" He grinned.

Keke faltered in her step. " What?" She asked, too quickly.

Trunks grinned. " You get along so well with the half breeds because you have a crush on one don't you?" He teased.

Keke's eyes widened in shock. " How did you-" She slapped her hand over her mouth and groaned.

" Well I wasn't sure until you said that but I can tell when someone has the hots for someone else." He informed her proudly.

Keke rolled her eyes tiredly. "Yes I have a boyfriend, and yes he's an Sankanjin…. It is obviously not accepted in my family so we are together in secret." She said.

" Well I don't want you to get in trouble because of me. So uh… I won't bring it up. Ah there is my ship."

The two of them walk up to the ship. Trunks starts playing around with some of the buttons in the ship. " Damn! The programming has been fried."

" So that means you can't get off our planet?"

" This was programmed many years ago, by an alien race my ancestors had an alliance with, and their aren't any left. I'm stranded here." Trunks sighed.

All of a sudden their was a loud scream, a girlish scream in the distance of the city. Keke recognized that scream and she ran off to find it with Trunks behind her.
