A/N: Thanks for your support guys! Reviews are very appreciated!

Disclaimer: I do not own DBZ or any of it's characters, I am not making money and the series would be very different if I would be the one to write them.

I never had rivals. I had always been the strongest. Frieza couldn't be considered my rival. He was my master.
Every single warrior that had the nerve to tell me he was stronger, did not live long enough to regret it.

Challenging me to a fight was like signing your death warrant, and everyone on Frieza's ship knew it.
They feared and respected me. Until Kakarrot came along, no one even came close to matching my power.
I killed every idiot that thought he could match my power. The only one I didn't kill, was Frieza.

When I thought Kakarrot killed him I was furious. How dare he do this, fine, I asked him to destroy him. But th tears I was shedding weren't coming because I lost my battle with Frieza, but because that lizard destroyed everything:
My race, my heritage, my destiny. And I didn't even get the chance to let him pay for what he did to me.

No, it was up to Kakarrot to save the day. It was up to Kakarrot to be the hero. It was up to Kakarrot to avenge our race.
And of course, leave it to Kakarrot to take away the only thing I was living for; my revenge.
That's why I cried. Not because I was so hurt by the big bad Frieza, but because he took away almost everything. And Kakarrot took the only thing I had left; my pride.
When I was accidentally wished back to life, I started hating him. Only that's when he became the one thing I swore never to have; my rival.

And now I'm standing here, waiting for him to speak to me, and tell me why he came all the way down here. What fucking irony.

I open the door to find that the room is completely empty. Was this some sort of practical joke? Did they think this was funny?
I'll kill the bastard who thought of this. What were they thinking? I would never let someone toy with my thoughts.
Just when I'm about to lose it, I see a light in the next room. I walk up to the door that leads there, and hear voices.
My superior Saiyan hearing picks up every word.

"Look, I really want to say this to Vegeta, but what if he gets mad at me? Defeating Buu together was a pretty nice way to really
get to know each other. I'd hate to ruin it. Chi-Chi would kill me if I did, she was relieved we were finally getting along because, now she wouldn't
have to be afraid of me dying every time I came over here." A voice that sounds like Kakarrot said.

Bulma was laughing, but I didn't appreciate his words. We were not getting along, the fact that I tolerate him does not mean I don't want to blast him every time he says something stupid He truly has no brain cells. Not one. Or he would have known better than to think we were 'getting along'.

"Well, I don't know Goku. I mean, Vegeta can get pretty crazy when he's in one of his 'I am the Prince of all Saiyans' moods, but deep down he's a good guy and I'm
sure he would appreciate and respect, whatever it is you have to say to him" she finishes. I am not crazy, and no, I do not appreciate or respect what he says to me.

"Look Goku, just think of a good way to tell him and he'll take it all right. I'll go see where he is, he's been in the Gravity room for ages, I mean, how long can you blast
energy beams at robots?" she says and she starts walking towards the door.

I can hear her coming and quickly move to the other side of the room. I wouldn't want her to think I'd low myself down to eavesdropping on her conversation.
She walks through the door and looks surprised when she sees me. She still looks good. She's wearing a mini-dress again. But this time blue it was blue. And no scarf.
Good, I hated that ridiculous garment.

"Oh, hi Vegeta. I didn't know you were here." She says casually. "Woman, I'm hungry. Go fix me a meal while I talk to Kakarrot".I reply.

It didn't come out as I wanted it to. "Well, Vegeta. Normally I'd be angry at you for treating me like a servant, but today, you're doing me a favor. So that means
you care, and in return, I'll do something for you." She says as she winks and walks seductively towards the door. She turns around." Oh, and by the way, Goku's waiting for you"
She finishes and she leaves.

This is infuriating, I don't care, I'm only doing this because... I'm doing this because she cooks my meals. I'm lying to myself and I know it, but I'm about to sit down for a
'pleasant' conversation with my rival. Now's no the time for emotions.

With a sense of dread and exhaustion, I open the door.

Kakarrot is standing there, wearing his orange training gear, and grinning like an idiot. "Oh, hi Vegeta. Gosh it's about time you came out, I was really getting hungry!"

I simply cannot believe him. He thinks of nothing else than his stomach. He's even worse than Dodoria, or that fat 'warrior' who cut off my tail.

"Spit it out Kakarrot, I am not in the mood to listen to your stomach" I tell him angry.

"Hey, Vegeta, relax. I'm just here to talk to you about our little fight, you know, the one where you were angry at me for not telling you about Super Saiyin three?"
He seems a bit, uncomfortable. He still has that grin on his face, but now he seems somehow insecure.

"There's nothing to say Kakarrot, you lied to me, I saw your true power, I have no intention of fighting you until I have reached that level and am once again the strongest
fighter in the universe, can you get that through your skull?" I'm angry at him for bringing it up. It was this that caused the tension between me and the woman.

He was reminding me of my failure again, not just my personal, but also my failure to protect them. My son and mate.
I wanted this conversation to be over, but he's making it clear that there's more he wants to say.

I'm hating every minute of it. But I'll do it. I'll do it for her, I owe it.
For her, I even stand here, being reminded of my inability to fight like a true Saiyan.

It's ironic that I'm here, speaking with my rival, because of my mate. Especially because I swore I would never have either one of them.

A/N: As you can see, each chapter shows Veggie's thoughts on one particular subject, this time his rivalry, last time his past and parentage.

What do you think of that idea? Review please, this is my first story and I really need the back up, and aprreciate the reviews! See ya next chapter;)
