Chapter 2-Cruel Zarbon

I don't own DBZ, but I do own Nishune and the other characters I make up.

Inside the fortress. 7:15 P.M.

Zarbon watched as the prisoners were dragged in and shoved into different prison cells. He watched how young children cried for their mother's, how an old man was beaten down to the ground without mercy just for walking to slow, the screams of young women being grabbed by their hair and thrown roughly into their cells. Yes, it was this scene of caos that he enjoyed most.

He actually loved seeing people suffer, specially no class peasents like these here. He was payed well in his job and he loved it. Torturing all these insignificant creatures until all had fallen. As soon as they were done with this village, they'd move on to another until every single human beign had fallen, then the real show would begin. They'd destroy this planet and then move on to others to continue their work. The whole galaxy would know who they were. Who Lord Freeza was.

The doors shut and Zarbon heard Colonel Tassa calling out in pain. He turned his attention to him and saw him and his men trying to hold on to a young eighteen year old boy. He was trying to throw them off of his shoulders and trying to break away from Tassa's men.

"What's all this mess, Colonel?" Zarbon asked in an angered voice.

"Sir, it's the boy. He won't come quietly. Though he's not the only one. Several of my men have been knocked out thanks to him and two others."

"Is that so? Well, we'll show them not to mess with us! Colonel, go get the other two. I'll deal with this one."

Colonel Tassa nodded and went with five of his men to fetch the other two boys. Zarbon approached the still struggling boy. As soon as he approached, the boy stopped struggling and looked Zarbon dead in the eye. He growled angrily, hatred portraied on his young, lively features. Zarbon put his hand under the boy's chin and forced his face up, so they were almost at the exact eye level.

"What's your name, young man?" Zarbon asked with a smirk on his face.

He didn't even bother to answer. He growled again, but more feircly, hoping that Zarbon would get the message and let him go. He didn't like him or his army. He loathed them so much, he wished them a painful death. He tried to kick Zarbon, but couldn't because of the guards holding him back. Zarbon punched him in the gut, then he grabbed a fistful of his hair and pulled back. The boy groaned out in pain.

"Listen brat and listen carefully, you can play hero all you what, but that attitude won't help you here at all! If you won't obey, then you're no use to us!"

He threw the boy aside and turned to the remaining guards near the door , "Take him down stairs and show him some manners. Do what you like with him, but bring him back up when you're done. If he wants torture, he'll get it!"

The guards dragged the boy away. Zarbon watched him beign dragged off and then turned to find Colonel Tassa waiting for him with the other two who had caused the knockout on Tassa's men.

"Are these the other two?", he asked. Tassa nodded.

"What did you do with Goku?" asked the eldest.

"Ah! So that's his name! Don't worry, Goku will join you two soon. My men have just taken him down stairs to show him a valuable lesson he'll never forget."

"You monster!" shouted the one with scars on his face,"if you do anything to him I swear to Kami that I'll-"

"That you'll what? Kill me?" Zarbon asked with a foul smile upon his face,"No, you stupid boy. If anyone's gonna do the killing that'll be me. You three may have been brave on the feild, but maybe you won't be so brave when you see what we have in store for you!"

"Take 'em away, you know where," He ordered Colonel Tassa,"And don't do anything to them until the third's with 'em. You know what to do as soon as the three are together."

Tassa nodded with a wicked grin on his face and marched the other two men down the corridor. Zarbon turned and started the walk down to his office, a glare on his face. Those three idiots had managed to tire him out, but they'd be sorry. In the end, all who messed with them were.

He reached his office and entered. He took out a pen and a peace of parchment and started to write a letter to Lord Freeza, telling him that Kokohiri Village had been occupied succesfully and all of it's inhabitants. He wondered whether he should tell him about those three brats, but he shook his head wearily. He didn't want his boss laughing at him for beign worried about three boys. He'd make sure those three would never see the light of day ever again.

What he didn't know right then and there was that there were more important matters to worry about, like the two young renagades who had just managed to enter the fortress under his very nose...

Wow! What a short chapter! I didn't think I'd finish this today, but I was so bored that I just continued writing and came up with this! Poor Goku, Tien and Yamcha! What's gonna happen to them? And how did Nishune and Vegeta enter the fortress without Zarbon noticing them? These answers and more shall be coming up soon! Get ready for Chapter 3 and, as always, read and review! I'll appreciate all comments and suggestions! Thank you all!

P.S. Zarbon fan girls, please don't be mad at me for making him one of the villains. Personally, he's one of my favorite villains, so it's really an honor to have him in my fic. So no flames, please.
