He woke to voices barely audible to regular ears but to a saiyan the voices might as well be screaming

"Why do you lowclass fools do this to yourselves ?" chuckles a soft feminine voice that he can't match to a face "You've got nothing to prove"

"Actually Gine he has a reputation to uphold" a deep baratone voice answers"He's the only low class to ever match and surpass an elite in power Ha I reckon he can even give ME a run for my money"

Immediately as Gine heard the voice she dropped to one knee put her right fist over her heart and hung her head "My king I didn't know you were coming" she states not daring to look up

Noticing her formality he says "You may stand I'm only here to offer my eavesdropping friend a invitation to a celebration in the royal palace"glancing at the Palm haired saiyan floating in the healing tank

Knowing he couldn't just float until the King walked away, Bardock opened his eyes and in a instant the healing fluids started to drain slowly revealing a body that would make a god green with envy as the tank opened Gine immediately turned her head with a slight blush.

Bardock raising a eyebrow to Gines behavior walks to the nearest armor closet seeming to not care that all of his saiyan glory was out and picked a simple black training gi with blood red gloves and boots, looking over the room he spotted his trademark headband folded neatly with his new scouter on top and put them on

Turning to the King he throws a quick jab expecting this the King just grabs his hand and smiles

"Still not strong enough old friend" Vegeta states

Chuckling Bardock speaks for the first time this evening "I'll get there eventually. Now what is it that makes you Grace me with your presence your Highness"he finishes sarcastically and glances over at Gine who's jaw hit the floor at the events that just unfolded in front of her eyes

'A lowclass friends with a royal...not just any royal our KING ' she thinks flabbergasted

King Vegeta's smile brightens at his friends bickering and sarcasm " Even with all the perks of being a friend of the king though you never use them you still aren't happy" he says with a mock gasp and laughs " nevertheless you already know what I want and it's not a request it's an order" with that the King turned on his heels and left the room in a better mood than he came in

"I'll kick your ass one day Vegeta" Bardock yells to the door to anyone else it would have been a threat but to the King it was what kept there friendship strong

As a answer he receives a ki blast burning a hole through the door and hitting him in the face followed by a loud roaring laughter and surprisingly a giggle so quiet he almost missed it

"Well I guess I better get my formal armor ready" he sighs and walks out the room heading home leaving Gine standing there watching him leave "And stop staring at me woman unless you like what you saw" he calls over his shoulder with a arrogant smirk that could rival the late Prince's as he rounds a corner exiting the medical wing of the building

"Ha staring at that lowclass scum? he must have been hit on his head to hard during that last mission" she thinks out loud "I hope he doesn't show up to this celebration"
