Chapter 6

"When Kakarrot was sent off, Frieza didn't know. He was too worried about the royal family to worry about "little matters' like that. But one night he sent a bunch of his troops to invade the planet and kill all the children under the age to 5, except for Radditz and me. They came to his house, and according to him, this is what happened..."

Vegeta paused. "This might get a bit gruesome for her...'

"What's the matter, babe?" Bulma asked.

She was waiting to see what happened. She had been wondering for ages and now she was finally gonna know and the person who was telling her kept stopping right in the middle...'Oh, what's a girl to do...?'

"These next parts may get a little gross..."

"It's fine. Just go on...Please?"

"Ok...well that night there was a knock on Radditz's family's door. His father, Bardock, and his mother, Valerie, were wondering who would be there so late at night. Bardock answered the door and as soon as the door was open 3 armed men with guns came bursting in the house, demanding that they take Radditz away. Valerie stood in front of him while Bardock stood in front of her. They were going to fight them. They didn't want to lose Radditz after they just sent Kakarrot here. Bardock started to converse with the men. That is when he found out what was going on. Radditz clung to his mother's leg tightly, not wanting to let go, fearing that he would be killed if he did. "I'll be damned if you'll take my son while I'm still breathing". Then the leader of the group said:" We were told to leave you alive...but not your MATE!" Then he lunged over Bardock and right in front of Valerie. She quickly turned and grabbed Radditz and ran for the door. But she never made it there. He shot a ki blast and it hit her right in the middle of her back. Luckily, Radditz was unharmed, just a bit phased. Valerie fell, Radditz screamed, and Bardock ran to his mate, all the while trying not to believe what just happened did. He cradled her body in his arms while trying to calm Radditz down. She looked at Radditz and Bardock and told then not to tell anyone where Kakarott was. To keep him safe. Then she died...right there. That scarred Radditz for life and he was only 5 years old. I felt so bad for him." Vegeta finished. Now he missed his friend even more. 'Well that worked swell.'

Bulma looked shocked. "Oh my God...he when through that when he was 5? That's terrible! I cannot even imagine something like that happening! When did he tell you all this?"

"It all came together eventually. At first he didn't want to discuss it. But every once in a while a little would come out and I finally got the whole story around the time we were...umm...16 I believe." Vegeta did feel a little better but not much.

"What happened to you? How did you and Radditz come under Freiza's control?"

"Are you sure you want to know?" He was unsure of he should tell her.

"Yes. I wanna know everything" She answered confidently.

"Okay" Vegeta pauses to take a drink and pull Bulma into his lap in the kitchen chair. (A/N: So now, she is straddling him...wishing me and Bulma could switch places...sorry!)

"My parents knew what was going on but they couldn't do anything about it. My Mother and I were playing in the throne room with my Father watching when Freiza came in. As soon as he came in my father knew what he wanted, he wanted me. My mother picked me up and held me not wanting to let go. Then that monster told for my mother to hand me over. My mother screamed at him: "Over my dead body!" and ran for the door. My father screamed for her to stop but she didn't. Freiza, in his little motor cart, zoomed in front of her and used his tail to smack her into a wall. Luckily I came out of that with a sore head and some bruises. My mother was not so lucky. She took the most of the blow. Her back was broken into so many places. I just cried while my father held her. She was losing so much blood. She was not going to make it and I earned later that that was Freiza's plan. Before my mother died she told me to be brave and never forget where I come from and my heritage and I have never broken that promise. Then she dies in my father's arms. I have never forgotten that day. And...I never will." Vegeta finish and just in time cuz he was about to cry. Just thinking about his mother brought tears to his eyes.

Bulma saw this and hugged him for all she was worth. Now she knew why he was so cold hearted. If she went though all he did she would be cold hearted too. But she still had one more question.

"What was your mother's name?"

Vegeta was shocked. He was not expecting that. "Leanna" (lay-ah-nah)

"Such a pretty name."

"She was beautiful" He said remembering what his mother looked like.

"What did she look like?"

"Long, black hair, big green eyes, tanned skin, like mine...she was so pretty. I used to tell her that all the time...heh." Vegeta leaned his head on Bulma's shoulder and she put her arms around him.

"I'll always be here for you Vegeta, always." She said in his ear.

"So will I Angel, so will I." Vegeta answered.

As they were in their little world, neither of them failed to noticed the snow raising more and more.

WELL THAT'S ALL! lol...well all folk's! Well until the next chappie! PLEASE R&R!
