The sweet aroma of breakfast slowly drifted throughout the compound. Mrs. Briefs had prepared a huge feast for the enormous appetites for her Saiyan family.
It had only been a day since the funeral but it seemed like forever. Mrs. Briefs left the hot food laid out just in case anyone was hungry then she went outside into the backyard to do some gardening. Her favorite past time always helped her relax but now she was doing it for therapeutic reasons.
~ Upstairs ~
Goku had managed to pry his self from underneath Vegeta's steel iron grip without waking him.
/Man, even in his sleep he's strong/ He thought as he went into the bathroom looking for something that would help ease his growing headache. For the pass two and a half weeks, he had been plagued with sever headaches which only seems to be getting worse.
Goku had also noticed that he had to cut back on stuffing his face full. He found that out when he had went to Gohan's for dinner one evening and threw- up everything. Thank Kami that he was home when that little episode happened. So, he had to learn what he could and couldn't eat. Plus, on of that he was having usual cravings for food that he normally didn't eat.
He had to stock-up on dill pickles and Rocky Road ice-cream [ 1 ] as well as something to make pancakes. He actually had found an American restaurant that sold the heavenly mixture.
At any rate, he just thought that he was going through another stage in his life and shrugged it off. He cautiously peeked in on his mate who was still asleep before he got into the shower.
The Saiyan prince was dreaming about days long passed.
~ Dream ~
The two Saiyans were standing in front of the dais before the ruler and heir. One stood tall, an Elite guard with a shiny baldhead and hooked nose. His face was accented with a partial goatee. The other much shorter than the guard with black spiky hair. His tail wave behind him like a snake.
The young Saiyan didn't hold his tail in its customary place around his waist and that was not good. An enemy could use that against him and it could prove to be very costly.
"Sire this is the boy that you requested" The guard said.
The royal could tell that the youth was suppressing his power and by the nice shiner that the older Saiyan guard was sporting he put up a pretty good fight.
"That is all Nappa. You may leave"
The brawny guard nodded and left to join his partner, who was the kid's older brother.
The king had been over this moment inside his head a thousand times but trying to get his mouth to work was going to be hard. Even though the Counsel members didn't agree with the arrangement they did feel the need that the young prince needed to mate with someone outside of the House of Vegeta.
The inter-mixing of family blood would not be a good ideal. After all, King Vegeta bonded and mated to the last female royal who was not related to his family line. So, his solution was to have his son mated to someone who was similar in strength to his son and who could bare strong offspring.
The search took over three and half years but the scientist had found the perfect match. Now, the boy stood before him with his head down cast.
"Boy, do you know why you are here?" The king asked.
The youth shook his head.
"Honestly, Father do actually expect a third class baka to know why his king has summoned him?"
"Quiet brat! If I wanted your opinion, I would have asked for it," The king said then smiled. "Besides, you shouldn't talk about your future mate like that"
The older Vegeta smirked even more as he waited for his son's reaction.
"MY BLOODY WHAT?!!!"
"Calm down Vegeta before you have a stroke. This is your soon-to-be mate" The king said rising from his throne and descended off the dais walking toward the quiet youth.
"He's perfect for you. As he gets older his power will increase. He may even surpass you, but remember you have the potential of becoming Legendary" He said as he carefully looked the boy over. "In addition to that my son, he's a rare find. Maybe one out of a thousand males on Vegetasei that have the 'R'-gene."
"So what's the big deal about that?" The prince was none to thrilled about being told that he was not only betrothed, but to a third class, no less.
"The big deal is that he will be able to produce heirs for you my son" The king completed his inspection then turned back to his offspring. "Your betrothment will be announced later today and after that you have about month to get acquainted with him."
Vegeta gave his father a questioning look. "And why is that?" He crossed his arms over his chest.
"Lord Frieza has requested your services. You will be gone for about a year, and after that you and Kakarott will become mates. Now, I have other matters to tend to. Be sure to keep him in your sight at all time and train him." The king left leaving his son and the boy in the vast throne room.
But little did the young Saiyan prince know that it would be years before he saw his 'intended' again.
~ End dream ~
The Royal slowly woke-up as the scent of breakfast leaked into his room. His stomach rumbled letting him know that it was time to eat. Vegeta tumbled out of bed quietly padding over to the bathroom. He was about to open the door when he heard his mate.
He slowly eased the door opened.
=======
You're ruling the----
=======
Goku stopped to clear his throat and tried again.
=======
You're ruling the way that I move
And I breathe your air
You only can rescue me
This is my prayer
=======
Vegeta stood transfixed in front of the sink listening. He couldn't believe that his young lover could sing.
=======
If you were mine
If you were mine
I wouldn't want to go to heaven
=======
Goku's voice was a light alto. The lyrics flowed evenly, Vegeta wondered how he would sound with the music. He also wondered where in the world did Goku hear a song like that. It was absolutely beautiful.
=======
I cherish the day
I won't go astray
I won't be afraid
You're ruling the way that I move
You take my air
You show me how deep love can be
=======
Then he stopped. Goku turned off the water and pushed back the shower door. A pair of questioning obsidians greeted him.
"Good morning Geta" He beamed. "Did you sleep well?"
Vegeta almost got side tracked as he raked in his mate's wet dripping body. He shook his head the clear it. "Hn. Kakarott, where did you learn how to sing like that?"
Goku's face turned a deep crimson. He wasn't expecting an audience.
"Well, I-I don't know really. Why?" He answered putting his hand behind his damp head.
"Tell me what song was that you were singing?" Vegeta's curiosity was getting the best of him.
"I was at this restaurant---" Goku begun but was interrupted again.
"What were you doing at a food place?" Vegeta knew that Goku could cook.
"Oh, that pause I was craving pancakes for some reason and found this American place that sold them. Anyway, they were playing music and this song came on and it kind of just stuck in my head." Goku explained.
Vegeta nodded his head then he remembered what Goku just said to him. He needs to tell him. The baka was already having cravings and pretty soon morning sickness would follow, and after that it would be a matter of time until he could feel the tiny being's life signature.
By standing so closed to him, Vegeta could smell the hormonal changes in his mate's body.
"Kakarott, meet me downstairs. We need to discuss some things." Vegeta said before he took his shower.
A half-hour later Goku was patiently waiting for his mate. At one point he thought that Vegeta was coming into the kitchen but it turned out to be Trunks followed by Goten.
"Goodness Trunks, you looked like you didn't get any sleep?"
"No, Goku I didn't. I practically stayed awake all night." Trunks barked out weakly while pouring a cup of coffee.
The young prince was still riled from the events of the previous day. His mother and grandfather were gone, and that bastard, Yamcha was making it worse by accusing his father for what happed. The Jerk.
The demi-Saiyans sat down after grabbing a plate full of food and ate in a comfortable silence. Goku knew about his son's relationship to the older half Saiyan but they haven't official made the announcement.
Trunks would soon be eighteen after he graduated from high school. From there he's going to college were he would get his degree to be able to run Capsule Corp. He had helped out many times before with the family business but the company could practically run itself with a little input every now and then.
Goten still has another year to go before he finished with school then he would be off to college as well. The young Son still haven't figured out what his main goal would be so he's just playing it by ear.
The couple hasn't consummated their relationship yet but that's the last thing that they have on their minds. Besides trying to deal with school and every day peer pressure they also leaned a hand to deal with new enemies. Trunks told Goten that they should wait until they are both ready, but little did the demi-Saiyans know that it would happen sooner rather than later.
Some time later, Vegeta finally entered the kitchen. He noticed that his brat and boyfriend where present.
Vegeta knew about them before they even knew. He also wasn't surprised that they were not mated yet. It seems that their human side was over shadowing their Saiyan instincts but no matter once Trunks turns eighteen in a month, the physical need to mate will come out regardless if they're half-Saiyan especially since the moon had been wished back.
Vegeta's thoughts went back to his mate. He sighed as he slid next to Goten across from Goku and his son.
Well, since he's going to explain this to Goku he might as well tell the brats too, but before he could open his mouth Trunks and Goten stood-up.
"Where are you brats going?" He asked.
"Finals are in two weeks and we need to study" Trunks replied.
"That can wait. You two sit down" Vegeta ordered.
Fear gripped both teenagers. Normally, Vegeta would tell them to get the Hell out, but this time it seemed that they were in trouble.
"Whatever it was, we didn't do it!" Goten exclaimed.
"Quiet brat. You haven't done anything, yet but you will" Vegeta smirked.
Goku's eyes bounded back and forth from his son to Trunks wondering what the heck Vegeta was talking about.
"I need to explain some things to Kakarott that you two haven't experienced and when the time comes you won't freak out about it" Vegeta started.
"Dad, if this is about you and Goku being together, Goten and I already know." Trunks said interrupting.
Even though the teens were half-Saiyans they still possess the extra heighten senses. They could smell the older Saiyan scents on each other especially after they made out. They had also noticed a slight change in Goku's scent but didn't question it.
Vegeta shot his son the 'now-brat-tell-me-when-you-found-this-out' look.
Trunks took the lead from his father's expression. "It was about a month ago. Normally, you would smell like dirt and sweat after you came home from sparring with Goku, but one afternoon when you came in, we smelt Goku all over you and noticed the bite mark on your shoulder. So, we figured that you and Goku were together." Trunks explained.
Goku's face couldn't turn any redder even if it wanted too. Man, what a way for his son to find out about his relationship with the Saiyan who wanted him dead for so long.
"Don't worry Dad. We approve, and we'll support you when you tell the others." Trunks added.
Vegeta gave a single nod. "Hn"
"So, what was it that you needed to tell us"
"There's a rare gene that certain Saiyan males have that will allow them to reproduce. One out of a thousand to be exact and it usually tend to follow within the same family line. This came about when the female population drewndled to almost nothing on our home planet. However, the gene can only be activated if dominated by another Saiyan male"
"So, only a Saiyan male could impregnate another Saiyan male?" Trunks asked. He knew enough about sex to know how conception takes place.
"Hai" Vegeta turned his gazed toward Goku.
"But Geta, what does that has to do with---" Goku began as realization hits him. He blinked a few times. Opened and closed his mouth but nothing was forth coming.
Vegeta felt the different waves of emotions rolling off of his mate. He could feel though their bond that the younger Saiyan was thrilled but he was petrified to death at the same.
"Vegeta we know that there's a reason behind you telling us this" Goten said. He hated when the prince danced around the point.
"Kakarott's pregnant"
"NANI?!!" Both Trunks and Goten fell to the floor.
Vegeta glared at them. "I suggest that you two use condoms or something when you mate or else you'll be parents before you're 21."
"Whoa! You just said it can only happen when a male dominates another" Trunks repeated.
"Yeah, Trunks and I are only half" Goten added.
Sometimes he wonders what they go to school for. "It's clearly obvious that Trunks is dominate in the relationship, and you brat have the potential of becoming pregnant, just like your older brother. It doesn't matter if you're a half-breed you still have Saiyan blood running through your veins." Vegeta concluded.
All three males were speechless. Goku was first to recover. "How long?" He asked.
"The length of pregnancy last for nine months" Vegeta said.
Then he got up and went to his mate's side. He placed an open palm over Goku's stomach searching for the barely formed fetus. He was very surprised by how far a long his lover was.
"Well???"
Vegeta's infamous smirk graced his lips once again. "Your 3 months"
Goku would have passed out on the floor if he was standing but instead his head hit the dining table with a loud thud. Trunks and Goten decided that now was the time to make their exit. They had a lot to talk about.
The Saiyan royal shook his head. Goku took this better than he thought. "Baka, what am I going to do with you." He whispered to his self as he lifted the larger male onto his shoulders.
+++++++++++++++++++
It was early evening when the Earth raised Saiyan regained consciousness. The last thing that he remembered was talking to Vegeta and him telling him that he was pregnant.
He was thrilled at the fact that they were going to have a baby. Nothing else in the world could have made him happy, but what about Vegeta? Did he feel the same way? The prince kept up mental barriers, so Goku couldn't sense what his mate was feeling or thinking most of the time.
He sat up in bed wondering what to do. He needed some time to think. It was already dark and the moon was full lighting everything like a large flashlight. He was about to get out of bed and go home when an arm grabbed him about the waist pulling him back.
"Geta, I didn't know that you were there?"
"I've been waiting for you to wake-up Kay" Vegeta said as he eased on top of his lover. "I know what you've been feeling koi. Although, the timing was a little off because of Bulma's death, I couldn't be any more happier to know that you will bare my heirs"
Goku was about to comment when the prince hauled him from the bed leading out onto the balcony. The light of the full moon was breath taking. Their skin tingled from the effects of the slivery rays. It was calling them.
Vegeta seize Goku's lips in a bruising kiss. He cleared away the table and chairs for tonight. He knew what would happen underneath the mysterious pale planet. The prince wasted on time, he wanted to reclaim his mate under the light of the full moon.
Goku was already three months pregnant very close to four. Vegeta wasn't going to neglect his young lover it was well known for Saiyan mates to depend on their partners for emotional support. Soon Goku would be too sick to do anything.
The prince let his instincts take over and made love to his mate throughout the night.
+++++++++++++++++++
The rustling of leaves faintly drifted into through the open balcony doors. Birds also made their presence known by singing to the early rising sun.
Dark eyes slowly opened as consciousness broke through. Goku stretched a little but quickly regretted the action as his backside and lower half screamed for mercy. His lower back was hurting so bad that it felt like something was coiled underneath him.
He carefully lifted Vegeta's arm from around his mid-section. A shower was in definite order, but when he tried to stand, Goku fell flat on his face.
/W.T.F?!/
He tried again, and again he fell down. He looked back to see if he had woken his mate. Luckily, Vegeta was sleeping heavily or else he would have been up hours ago. Normally, the Saiyan prince would have been up before the crack of dawn training but he felt no need to do that today. Instead he wanted to spend some quality time with his young lover.
Goku came to the conclusion that something was seriously wrong and that it might effect the baby. He crawled to the bathroom and hauled his self up by using the counter. He glanced sideways in the mirror on the shower doors when he'd noticed something move behind him. Low and behold it was his tail.
/Ah! No wonder I couldn't stand/ Goku managed to wrap his tail around his slender waist. As soon as he did that he immediately compensated the balance change. Somehow, during the night his tail regenerated. He was elated and was about to tell Vegeta but decided to do that after his shower.
While Goku was in the bathroom, Vegeta stirred out of bed. He too stumbled and fell to the floor. He smiled when the reddish long appendage greeted him. He gained controlled of his extra limb and rebalanced his self.
Just as he predicated, his and Goku's coupling under the full moon had regrew their tails. He wondered how his mate was getting along with the newly formed length. As soon as he stood Goku came out of the bathroom.
"GETA! My tail grew back!" He exclaimed.
"Yes, I know Kakarott." Vegeta answered with a smirk.
"Oh? How did you know?"
"Because mine grew back as well"
The tall warrior walked up to his prince and wrapped his arms around him. "Geta, I'm going home for a little while, would you like to come and have dinner with me?"
"Sure why not" The prince replied.
"Also I think that we should tell the others about us."
Vegeta stiffened about that. He wasn't ready to inform the weak humans of their relationship just yet, but it seems that his mate wanted them to know. After all they are his friends. He could give a rat's ass one way or another about any of them especially Yamcha.
"Alright Kay, if that's what you want to do" Vegeta said not believing that he actually gave into Goku so easily.
Goku nodded his head thrilled that Vegeta agreed. He leaned down and gave him a kiss.
"Thank you Geta! I'll have Trunks and Goten to help with the get together"
"Yeah, yeah. Get going or else you'll end up sleeping over again"
Goku put his hand behind his head and smiled. "That's okay just as long as I'm with you" And he kissed the Saiyan royal again before heading home.

~ Some distance away from Earth ~
The tall Changeling whipped his thick white tail back and forth leaving dents in the floor as he listened to report after report of the Saiyan that killed his brother.
"Stop! I've heard enough" He turned around to face his guard.
"My Lord, we'll be approaching the planet within one week" Another guard announced.
"Very good Neizu. I want to bring this monkey to his knees." The ice Lord walked to the circular dais next to his throne.
On top was a glass display case that held two arm bracelets. He smiled at the silver bands. They twirled on their velvet pedestal inside the glass.
Yes, this will be the Saiyan's undoing and there's nothing in the universe that's going to save him. A near-by communication monitor beeped, interrupting revengeful thoughts.
"Hai Doore" The Changeling said.
"Sorry to disturb you Sire but I've just received a report of a rebellion on one of your planet. The 2nd Armored squadron is requesting assistance My Lord"
The tyrant gritted his teeth. He couldn't believe that he was going to be denied his prize but he didn't want a meaningless rebellion breaking out."
He turned back to his right hand guard. "Sauza, change course"
The ice lizard figured that he would personally take care of the problem so he could get to Earth and retrieve the Saiyan.
The ship veered off in the opposite direction it would be at least a month before it returned; and then the dirty monkey would be his.

Well, stay tuned and find out! It's going to be explosive. Tell me your thoughts and any comments that you might have ^_~

Vegeta shot his son the 'now-brat-tell-me-when-you-found-this-out' look.
Trunks took the lead from his father's expression. "It was about a month ago. Normally, you would smell like dirt and sweat after you came home from sparring with Goku, but one afternoon when you came in, we smelt Goku all over you and noticed the bite mark on your shoulder. So, we figured that you and Goku were together." Trunks explained.
Goku's face couldn't turn any redder even if it wanted too. Man, what a way for his son to find out about his relationship with the Saiyan who wanted him dead for so long.
"Don't worry Dad. We approve, and we'll support you when you tell the others." Trunks added.
Vegeta gave a single nod. "Hn"
"So, what was it that you needed to tell us"
"There's a rare gene that certain Saiyan males have that will allow them to reproduce. One out of a thousand to be exact and it usually tend to follow within the same family line. This came about when the female population drewndled to almost nothing on our home planet. However, the gene can only be activated if dominated by another Saiyan male"
"So, only a Saiyan male could impregnate another Saiyan male?" Trunks asked. He knew enough about sex to know how conception takes place.
"Hai" Vegeta turned his gazed toward Goku.
"But Geta, what does that has to do with---" Goku began as realization hits him. He blinked a few times. Opened and closed his mouth but nothing was forth coming.
Vegeta felt the different waves of emotions rolling off of his mate. He could feel though their bond that the younger Saiyan was thrilled but he was petrified to death at the same.
"Vegeta we know that there's a reason behind you telling us this" Goten said. He hated when the prince danced around the point.
"Kakarott's pregnant"
"NANI?!!" Both Trunks and Goten fell to the floor.
Vegeta glared at them. "I suggest that you two use condoms or something when you mate or else you'll be parents before you're 21."
"Whoa! You just said it can only happen when a male dominates another" Trunks repeated.
"Yeah, Trunks and I are only half" Goten added.
Sometimes he wonders what they go to school for. "It's clearly obvious that Trunks is dominate in the relationship, and you brat have the potential of becoming pregnant, just like your older brother. It doesn't matter if you're a half-breed you still have Saiyan blood running through your veins." Vegeta concluded.
All three males were speechless. Goku was first to recover. "How long?" He asked.
"The length of pregnancy last for nine months" Vegeta said.
Then he got up and went to his mate's side. He placed an open palm over Goku's stomach searching for the barely formed fetus. He was very surprised by how far a long his lover was.
"Well???"
Vegeta's infamous smirk graced his lips once again. "Your 3 months"
Goku would have passed out on the floor if he was standing but instead his head hit the dining table with a loud thud. Trunks and Goten decided that now was the time to make their exit. They had a lot to talk about.
The Saiyan royal shook his head. Goku took this better than he thought. "Baka, what am I going to do with you." He whispered to his self as he lifted the larger male onto his shoulders.
+++++++++++++++++++
It was early evening when the Earth raised Saiyan regained consciousness. The last thing that he remembered was talking to Vegeta and him telling him that he was pregnant.
He was thrilled at the fact that they were going to have a baby. Nothing else in the world could have made him happy, but what about Vegeta? Did he feel the same way? The prince kept up mental barriers, so Goku couldn't sense what his mate was feeling or thinking most of the time.
He sat up in bed wondering what to do. He needed some time to think. It was already dark and the moon was full lighting everything like a large flashlight. He was about to get out of bed and go home when an arm grabbed him about the waist pulling him back.
"Geta, I didn't know that you were there?"
"I've been waiting for you to wake-up Kay" Vegeta said as he eased on top of his lover. "I know what you've been feeling koi. Although, the timing was a little off because of Bulma's death, I couldn't be any more happier to know that you will bare my heirs"
Goku was about to comment when the prince hauled him from the bed leading out onto the balcony. The light of the full moon was breath taking. Their skin tingled from the effects of the slivery rays. It was calling them.
Vegeta seize Goku's lips in a bruising kiss. He cleared away the table and chairs for tonight. He knew what would happen underneath the mysterious pale planet. The prince wasted on time, he wanted to reclaim his mate under the light of the full moon.
Goku was already three months pregnant very close to four. Vegeta wasn't going to neglect his young lover it was well known for Saiyan mates to depend on their partners for emotional support. Soon Goku would be too sick to do anything.
The prince let his instincts take over and made love to his mate throughout the night.
+++++++++++++++++++
The rustling of leaves faintly drifted into through the open balcony doors. Birds also made their presence known by singing to the early rising sun.
Dark eyes slowly opened as consciousness broke through. Goku stretched a little but quickly regretted the action as his backside and lower half screamed for mercy. His lower back was hurting so bad that it felt like something was coiled underneath him.
He carefully lifted Vegeta's arm from around his mid-section. A shower was in definite order, but when he tried to stand, Goku fell flat on his face.
/W.T.F?!/
He tried again, and again he fell down. He looked back to see if he had woken his mate. Luckily, Vegeta was sleeping heavily or else he would have been up hours ago. Normally, the Saiyan prince would have been up before the crack of dawn training but he felt no need to do that today. Instead he wanted to spend some quality time with his young lover.
Goku came to the conclusion that something was seriously wrong and that it might effect the baby. He crawled to the bathroom and hauled his self up by using the counter. He glanced sideways in the mirror on the shower doors when he'd noticed something move behind him. Low and behold it was his tail.
/Ah! No wonder I couldn't stand/ Goku managed to wrap his tail around his slender waist. As soon as he did that he immediately compensated the balance change. Somehow, during the night his tail regenerated. He was elated and was about to tell Vegeta but decided to do that after his shower.
While Goku was in the bathroom, Vegeta stirred out of bed. He too stumbled and fell to the floor. He smiled when the reddish long appendage greeted him. He gained controlled of his extra limb and rebalanced his self.
Just as he predicated, his and Goku's coupling under the full moon had regrew their tails. He wondered how his mate was getting along with the newly formed length. As soon as he stood Goku came out of the bathroom.
"GETA! My tail grew back!" He exclaimed.
"Yes, I know Kakarott." Vegeta answered with a smirk.
"Oh? How did you know?"
"Because mine grew back as well"
The tall warrior walked up to his prince and wrapped his arms around him. "Geta, I'm going home for a little while, would you like to come and have dinner with me?"
"Sure why not" The prince replied.
"Also I think that we should tell the others about us."
Vegeta stiffened about that. He wasn't ready to inform the weak humans of their relationship just yet, but it seems that his mate wanted them to know. After all they are his friends. He could give a rat's ass one way or another about any of them especially Yamcha.
"Alright Kay, if that's what you want to do" Vegeta said not believing that he actually gave into Goku so easily.
Goku nodded his head thrilled that Vegeta agreed. He leaned down and gave him a kiss.
"Thank you Geta! I'll have Trunks and Goten to help with the get together"
"Yeah, yeah. Get going or else you'll end up sleeping over again"
Goku put his hand behind his head and smiled. "That's okay just as long as I'm with you" And he kissed the Saiyan royal again before heading home.

~ Some distance away from Earth ~
The tall Changeling whipped his thick white tail back and forth leaving dents in the floor as he listened to report after report of the Saiyan that killed his brother.
"Stop! I've heard enough" He turned around to face his guard.
"My Lord, we'll be approaching the planet within one week" Another guard announced.
"Very good Neizu. I want to bring this monkey to his knees." The ice Lord walked to the circular dais next to his throne.
On top was a glass display case that held two arm bracelets. He smiled at the silver bands. They twirled on their velvet pedestal inside the glass.
Yes, this will be the Saiyan's undoing and there's nothing in the universe that's going to save him. A near-by communication monitor beeped, interrupting revengeful thoughts.
"Hai Doore" The Changeling said.
"Sorry to disturb you Sire but I've just received a report of a rebellion on one of your planet. The 2nd Armored squadron is requesting assistance My Lord"
The tyrant gritted his teeth. He couldn't believe that he was going to be denied his prize but he didn't want a meaningless rebellion breaking out."
He turned back to his right hand guard. "Sauza, change course"
The ice lizard figured that he would personally take care of the problem so he could get to Earth and retrieve the Saiyan.
The ship veered off in the opposite direction it would be at least a month before it returned; and then the dirty monkey would be his.
