King Vegeta sighed reluctantly as he picked his sleeping son up out of his bed. Once again, Frieza had called the Saiyan king and his son for a meeting on his ship late at night, when four-year-old Prince Vegeta had all ready been put to bed.

The last time the Saiyan ruler and his young son had been on Frieza's ship, the prince had been badly beaten by Frieza's lieutenant, Zarbon. That had been only two short weeks ago. And now, King Vegeta was being forced to take his little child back to the tyrant's ship. It was actually a good thing that the small prince was fast asleep. The Saiyan toddler was absolutely terrified of Frieza's ship now.

...

"Excuse me for a moment, Vegeta, I need to speak with Zarbon in private", Frieza said.

"Of course, Lord Frieza", King Vegeta replied.

No sooner than the Ice-Jin stepped out of the throne room, little Vegeta yawned and awoke.

"Where are we?" the young Saiyan asked sleepily, looking around the room.

"We're on Frieza's ship", his father answered.

At this, Vegea's eyes closed again and the child buried his face in his father's shoulder, shaking with fear.

King Vegeta wanted nothing more than to finish the meeting with Frieza so he could take his son home.

"I'm scared, Daddy", Vegeta said, pulling the Saiyan king out of his thoughts.

"There's no need to be scared", King Vegeta said, rocking hs small son back and forth slightly.

As soon as the word's left the Saiyan king's mouth, the door opened and in walked Frieza, followed closely by Zarbon.

"Now where were we, Vegeta?" the Ice-Jin asked. As he asked this, the lizard sat back on his hoverchair. Zarbon looked over at Vegeta, who hid his face in his shoulder again.

"I would be happy to baby-sit the little prince while the two of you have meeting", Zarbon offered.

"That won't be necessary, Zarbon", King Vegeta replied firmly.

"Actually, Zarbon, go ahead", Frieza put in.

"Daddy", Vegeta whimpered, glancing up at his father pleadingly, tears threatening to fall from his onyx black eyes.

"Don't worry, Vegeta", Frieza said. "The child will be fine".

...

Vegeta shook with fear as he stood in front of Zarbon.

"Are you scared?" Zarbon sneered. "Then you're not so stupid after all, you should be scared".

Vegeta backed up until he found a wall.

Zarbon smirked, stepped forward, and smacked Vegeta across the face so hard, the small Saiyan fell to the floor. Laughing cruelly, the teal-skinned changeling proceeded to continue abusing the Saiyan child. "Stop!" Vegeta screamed, curling into a ball. "Stop it! Please! Please, stop! PLEASE!" Zarbon ignored the four-year-old's desperate pleas.

The Saiyan child began to cry. Zarbon stomped on the small Saiyan's back. "Daddy! Daddy!" Vegeta wailed, tears streaming from his eyes.

The door opened and in ran King Vegeta, his face livid. "Zarbon, get your hands off my son!" he snarled. "You do not command me", Zarbon replied boldly.

The teal-skinned changeling had to dodge a ki blast aimed at his face.

The angry Saiyan king sent several more ki blasts, causing Zarbon to flee from the training room.

When he was sure that Zarbon had gone, King Vegeta turned back to his small son. He had gotten there just in time. Vegeta wasn't as badly hurt as he had been two weeks before, but he was still hurt. His little face was red, sore, and stained with tears. King Vegeta could see a red mark in the shape of Zarbon's hand on Vegeta's right cheek, a few bones in the young Saiyan's body were most likely broken, and the Saiyan child seemed badly frightened.

"We're going home right now", King Vegeta said, picking his son up very carefully.

...

"It seems like Frieza truly enjoys torturing Vegeta", Malaka remarked as he activated the rejuvenation tank.

"It's not Frieza", King Vegeta said, watching his son's small body float around in the blue-green liquid in the rejuvenation tank. "It's that kisama lieutenant of his, Zarbon".

"The prince is strong for a child", Malaka said.

"But he's still just that", King Vegeta added. "A child".

"That's very true", Malaka nodded.
