I'm not sure how long it took me to actually get to sleep but it felt like hours. My thoughts wouldn't stop and knowing he was just on the other side of the bed kept me up till my eyes just wouldn't stay open.
When I woke up I felt a tremendous weight on my chest. I wanted to move but found my head trapped by a horn running right under my chin. Frieza seemed to have found me in his sleep and curled up to me like I was a hot water bottle.
His breath was ghosting against my collarbone as his arms had laced their way around my torso. I felt how his tail had coiled around my left leg while his legs were curled around my pelvis. My right arm felt cold and stiff as I lifted it from off the side of the bed.
'Are you kidding me. He followed me to the edge of the bed.' I sighed as his tail tightened around my thigh for a moment before relaxing.
Lord Frieza gave an annoyed groan as he snuggled further into my chest.
"I don't wanna get up." Grumbling as he moved about forcing my head to follow him since one of his horns kept me pinned.
He gave me another squeeze before sitting up. Rubbing his eyes in a cute way as he woke up. He ruined the cute moment by giving me that smug look that seemed to be glued onto his face.
"You mammals are so warm. It makes it hard to get out of bed." His tail unwound from my leg before he slid off the bed.
"I have to get some work done." He started as he went into the closet to grab a new set of armor to wear.
"Someone will be in to get you something to eat before bringing you to me." Putting his eye piece back on he looked over at me.
"I expect you to behave. Don't make me regret sparing your life." With that light hearted pep talk he left me alone, again.
Sighing I still felt exhausted. I rolled out of the bed and went into the closet, noting that the clothes that were scattered on the floor were now missing. Since it seemed like all of the cloths were mostly the same I just grabbed one at random.
When I left the closet I jumped being startled by the sudden appearance of a man in the room. He was holding a tray of what I assumed was food in his pale blue hands. Taking it from him I gave him a tentative thank you before sitting down to eat on the couch.
Unsure of where to begin with the strange looking food I took a chunk out of the purple looking meat. While it looked like a dyed cut of beef it had a fish taste too it and was actually pretty good. The juice that sat on the tray was sweet. I actually found myself enjoying my meal. The cloud around my thoughts drifted away for a few minutes as I tried all this new food. Finishing up I hesitantly placed the tray on one of the side tables before going back to the man who hadn't moved since I sat down.
"Follow me." He turned and walked out of the room.
Glad I wasn't being dragged around this time I kept pace with him worried about getting lost. The farther we got the more crowded the hallways became. Suddenly I felt a large hand grab me by the forearm before pulling me into a bulky chest.
"Now where do you think your going?" I looked up to only focus on the large set of sharp teeth smiling down at me.
My escort turned around at my whimpering and before he could say anything, got a swift punch in the face that had him smacking into the wall. He slumped down unconscious as I realized the crowd that was in the hallway were swiftly moving past the big guy bruising my arm.
"Now why don't you come with me? Some grubby politician doesn't deserve such an unusual female." He lifted me up to his eye level as I started to hyperventilate.
"Let me go!" I pleaded, "I don't have to go anywhere with you."
He growled annoyed at my refusal.
"Hey! She asked you to let her go." Turning to the voice I was temporarily blind sighted at the three human looking men walking towards us.
"What's it to you monkey?" The teeth in front of me growled out.
The tall bald one came foreword and grabbed him by the wrist that was holding me. He groaned in annoyance and tossed me onto the floor before getting kneed in the face by the bald guy. Groaning in pain he kneeled on the floor as baldy pushed him down.
"Just cause you're an elite doesn't mean you can go doin' whatever you want." The bald guy said.
The other two looked on bored as I stood up.
"Where were you going?" The bald guy asked.
Surprised at being asked an actual question I turned toward my unconscious escort.
"He was suppose to be taking me to Lord Frieza."
The shortest one with the point hair gave me a contemptuous look.
"You belong to Frieza?" Angry pointy hair asked.
I nodded feeling very anxious.
"Well come on, might as well get you there." the bald one said before kicking the guy who attacked me in the face.
He then grabbed the guy who looked almost twice his size and carried him over his shoulder.
The one with the long hair picked up the blue guy who was escorting me as I was lead down several more hallways.
"Thanks" I said, honestly surprised to get any help from anyone in this place.
Baldy shrugged, "What can I say, you look a lot like a girl I used to know back home. I'm Nappa by the way and that's Prince Vegeta and Radditz." He pointed at the angry slice of pie and puffy Sonic hair.
Looking them over I now noticed the tails they had wrapped around their waist.
'Were these the guys I was going to be given to.' I now wondered if I'd be better off with them.
They didn't seem outright terrible.
"So where's home?" I asked enjoying his conversational tone.
"Vegeta-sai," He answered a bit more solemnly.
"Has it been a while since you were home?"
"It was hit by a comet over a decade ago."
"Oh….I'm so sorry to hear that." He seemed surprised that I was honestly sorry about it.
It seemed like he was gonna say more but we arrived at the large door from yesterday.
It slid open to Frieza sitting on his floating throne with an infuriated look on his face.
"What is the meaning of this?" Frieza demanded in a not so dignified voice.
Vegeta opened his mouth to speak to only be hushed by Frieza.
"Pet you tell me what happened." His eyes glaring down at me. I did my best to not move away from his enraged gaze.
"Well I was being taken here like you said I would and that guy attacked me. He knocked out my escort ,"Frieza looked absolutely lived, "But before anything serious happened they showed up and saved me." I stuttered out, feeling very small and powerless.
Frieza floated down towards us and examined the situation. The poor blue guy who was suppose to take me here had woken up and look terrified. Unsure of what to do with the tense silence I stepped towards Lord Frieza. He reached out and pulled me closer to him, examining the bruise forming on my right arm.
"Well Vegeta I'm surprised to see you being so gallant." Frieza said in a drool tone, lifting the fearful tension out of the air.
"It was actually Nappa Lord Frieza." Frieza gave me an annoyed look for correcting him.
"Nappa?" He said as if he had barely even considered the man.
"Well such gallantry should be rewarded don't you say so Zarbon?" Looking past Frieza I saw Zarbon poke at a screen that had no physical base as he agreed with Frieza.
Frieza now turned to the man who attacked me as he started to come too. The man looked up to see Frieza holding my bruised arm and he got a panicked look on his face.
"Do you know what happens to people who try to take my things?" Frieza asked, his tone no longer pleasant.
"LoRD Frieza I'm so SORRY. I….I didn't know.." The man stammered out realizing he made a massive mistake.
"It doesn't matter whether you knew or not." Blood splattered my dress and legs as Frieza's tail impaled itself through the mans abdomen.
Blood rolling down the tip of his tail back into the wound.
"You still did it. NO ONE touches my things." Twisting his tail down he pushed it down through the mans chest.
Blood was flowing down his body into a puddle on the cold floor. The man attempted to gurgle something out before his eyes rolled into the back of his head. I looked to Frieza, he had a disgusted look on his face as he removed his tail from the now dead man.
"Take it away." He waved at my still living escort who seemed very happy to not be the one getting killed.
"You three leave and try to get something useful done." Frieza sneered out as I couldn't stop staring at the blood dripping from his tail into a small pool on the floor.
His tail shook like a wet dog to remove the blood coating his skin. Several drops splashed me.
"My, my pet your shaking like a leaf." Frieza said releasing my arm to run his hand through my hair.
"Is my little pet tuckered out already." His tone was mocking but I was actually very tired.
Frieza lifted me up and laid me on his lap. He pushed my head into his right shoulder and had my legs dangle over the left side of his throne. Glancing over at the retreating Saiyans I saw Nappa give me a sympathetic nod as he left.
I sighed, exhausted. A hand began to pat and stroke my leg smearing the cooling blood that had splattered there from the now dead man. Finding myself drifting off as the lack of sleep, emotional turmoil, and physical exhaustion caught up with me. My breathing began to sync up with Frieza's and before I fell asleep I remember worrying about the possible effects of what just happened on my delicate mind state.
