Chapter 6: Realizations

Goku dodged the attack in the nick of time, "Damn it!" He thought, as he was unsuccessful in knowing what Ornichi was hiding…

"You are fast! I like it!" Ornichi asserted and rushed towards Goku, both of them started exchanging, blows after blows, kicks after kicks. All the Z warriors had their eyes set on the two Saiyans...

"Prince, Prince... Its time to get… Aaahhhh!"

The slave went flying across the big room as a light red energy wave hit him straight on his chest…

"Hmmm…. You still need a lot of training Prince"

"And will you give it to me, Asban?"

"I don't suppose so… I have many responsibilities as the protector of Ve…"

"Huh, how hard can it be? Just looking over to see who is coming in and going out… You need to learn better excuses!"

Asban looked at the young prince; he was just like his father, King Vegeta, when he was a kid, hot headed and full of pride. Being the Protector of the planet Vegeta for over seven decades now, he had seen the Saiyan Royal family trading in planets with numerous races, but this ongoing trade of King Vegeta with a new race, just didn't seem right…

"Get ready soon prince, the King wants to meet you outside in the Gardens…" Asban said and left a young Vegeta alone in his room…

"You called me father?"

"Ah! I was waiting for a long time now…Today you will be accompanying two Warriors in their space journey to see how we Saiyans work"

"Are you serious?" Vegeta asked with a bright sparkle in his eyes

"You know I never joke. Now get along, I have an important meeting to take care of…"

"Is it with that guy now what was his name…?"

"Frieza… Yes. He is coming over to speak about an important matter, although I don't know what…"

"You know Asban does not like that guy, he says he's untrustworthy…"

"That's why I am the King and he just a mere worker of mine… Now get going else you will miss the launch off!"

Vegeta gave his father a smile and ran towards the Space Centre…

"I don't trust him too prince…" the King thought as he went in his Royal Chamber

"Hey Prince, I hope you are enjoying!" Shouted a Clan Warrior, named Raditz, at the top of his voice…

"I am this is fu…" Vegeta jumped up dodging an attack from a fighter of the planet whom the Saiyan Warriors were attacking… He landed behind him and shouted, "Gaaa…l…ik…Fire…" A red beam, although of less power, but powerful enough to kill a mediocre fighter, shot out of his hands and hit the person he was holding right in his face, it was Vegeta's first kill…

'Attention… Calling all Warriors Vegeta has been attacked… Attention… Calling all warriors Vegeta has been attacked, retreat as soon as possible…' A warning signal ran out from the Saiyan pods…

"What?" Vegeta shrieked ran hurriedly towards his pod, the other two Saiyans followed him…

'Reaching Planet Vegeta in 5…4…3…2…'

Nearly everything on the planet was destroyed. The green gardens, which were once a sight to behold, were now a blazing inferno… The Royal Palace, a marvelous piece of engineering, was in pure shreds. Hundreds of bodies of dead Saiyan Warriors lay around as far as the eyes could see… It seemed nothing was alive on the planet to tell what happened…

Vegeta leapt out of his space pod and ran towards the Royal chambers; he wanted to know who was responsible for this… No one had seen him this angry before, and for that matter no one could see him now except for Raditz and Nappa, who followed him…

"What happened here?" Vegeta asked, as he entered the throne room, to a man sitting in a hover car. He had a sinister like look on his face, didn't take the little prince long to realize this was their newest customer, Frieza…

"Ah! Prince… I am so sorry to tell you, your dad is no more…" Frieza said looking at him

"No!" Vegeta couldn't believe his ears… "Who did this, tell me who?" He screamed at the top of his voice… His eyes had become red, sweat dripping from his fore head as he moved to see his father, the King, who lay on his throne, dead as a stone…

"You should not worry about him..."

"Who was it Frieza? Tell me, who did this?" Vegeta asked again, but now a little calm... He held the head of his father in his hands, and looked at his face, which still shone with pride… A drop of water felt on it… The only drop which Vegeta shed in his entire life…

"Asban, the protector of your planet…"

"What?" Vegeta looked at him in disbelief, "Asban…He… He was my best friend... I will kill him, where is he?" Vegeta's tone again rose, but this time it felt more sad than angry…

"He's already dead, killed himself while he attracted the meteor cloud towards the planet! When we reached here, everything was dead…"

"The prince has agreed… He took the bait… Now we don't have anything to worry about" Frieza said with a cunning smile on his face to his best henchmen, by the name of Captain Ginyu…

"But why don't you kill him sire? Wouldn't he be a threat when he grows up?"

"I suppose so… But till then I would have also grown stronger" Frieza broke into laughter along with Ginyu…

"Sire, I must ask, how did you manage to control that… Joyan?"

"It was a most difficult task Ginyu… I had to make him believe I was on his side, but now with every Saiyan gone, it's not long before I rule the whole Univer…"

Frieza was interrupted, "Sire! The chip you wanted has been implanted, the Joyan now feels nothing, and he has gone into complete Hibernation…"

"Good… But one more thing, you should have not interrupted me…"

A white beam later shred of clothes were falling from the air… Frieza followed by the Captain reached to see how the Joyan looked when he was not killing every Saiyan he laid his eyes upon!

"Hmmm… Ginyu prepare for his launch-off, we will send him so far off he won't be a trouble for us, ever!"

Frieza stepped near Ornichi' spaceship, he removed the Scouter he was wearing and threw it in … "That's for being a nice worker!" He looked at the Joyan and again broke into a huge laughter…

Vegeta suddenly opened his eyes. His anger knew no bounds. He stood and looked back at the person who was responsible for what happened to his beloved home, "You are dead!" Vegeta shouted, transforming into SS2 as he rushed towards Ornichi…

Goku, also transformed into Super Saiyan 2, was now having trouble keeping up with Ornichi's pace… The other Z Warriors had been looking at the fight, wanting to barge in but being stopped by Goku…

"Ornichi, you are mine!" Vegeta shouted and came straight towards him, holding his hands he swung Ornichi high in the air… He rushed towards him and gave a big punch on his face, breaking his Scouter into two… The two Saiyans then went into hyper mode…

Goku suddenly got a hint… He had supposedly found the weakness of the most powerful Saiyan in the universe!
