Once again massive thankies to my beta LordCooler who is just amazing! I dont own DBZ characters "damn it!" but December, Snow, Queen Avalanche, Frostia and Blizaran belong to moi!

"Hello?"

December had been calling out as she walked through the endless void of darkness. Where was she? How did she get here?

"*Where the hell am I?*", She thought. The darkness swirled around her like a slow river. She wasn't afraid to admit she was a little scared, and as she continued to walk into the blanket of darkness, she sensed someone's ki. It was the same ki she had sensed when she first arrived at Cold's palace, and it was close. December shivered. She locked onto it, hoping to find out where it was coming from and who it belonged to.

She sensed it again this time from behind her.

"H-H-Hello?" she tried to shout but her voice came out in nothing more than a whisper. She didn't like this. The strange ki made her feel weak, venerable, defenceless and uneasy. She shivered again. "*Come on December. You're the daughter of Snow, king of the mighty Snow clan. You cannot be afraid of a little darkness and a strange powerful ki that you don't know,*" she tried to reassure herself, which didn't help at all.

"Come to me December. My love."

"*Oh shit!*" December's mind screamed out. She turned around quickly to see nothing but the darkness around her.

"That defiantly came from behind me. But where is it now?" She said aloud to herself, scanning the area. Whatever it was that called to her, it was still here. Its ki was incredible, almost radiating trough the darkness. December was getting frustrated with the predicament she had found herself in. What did it mean when it called her "its love"?

"You will come to me December."

"*That's it!*" She thought. She began charging a ki blast and took on an offensive stance. She was ready to attack. Whatever it was, it sure would be sorry that it had ever crossed the path of Princess December. With hands glowing purple from the ki she was conjuring up -giving her a sense of security- she yelled into the darkness, "Come on you coward. Show your fucking self".

It was rare the Icejin Princess ever used bad language like that, but she was scared, anxious, and extremely pissed off. Her ki was her only weapon and she had no back-up. One thing she did know was that she wasn't alone, and this 'thing' was defiantly Icejin, defiantly male, absolutely powerful, and it was toying with her.

"Ha. Oh December, you are feisty," It chuckled.

December could almost hear it smirking. Suddenly she stood paralyzed with fear as she felt hands run down her body to stop at her hips. She felt something press up behind her. She gulped hard and her ki faded, as it whispered seductively into her ear "I find that utterly attractive in a mate".

The unknown Icejin nuzzled December's neck, planting tiny kisses upon her collarbone. "What do you want with me? Why do you keep calling me your love?" December struggled to say. She was struggling to fight from moaning under his kisses. She felt the Icejin smirk on her neck, "All will be revealed soon my love".

His voice took on a dangerous and threatening tone as he pulled away, his hands remaining on December's hips, "It amazes me how your father thinks that by having you bonded to him that it will keep me from finishing what I started so many years ago."

"*Him?*" December thought, "*He means Cooler. What's Cooler got to do with this?*".

He bent to her ear once again and whispered. "He is sadly mistaken if he thinks he can protect you. His power can't compare to mine. It is very foolish of the King to entrust you into his care if you ask me."

December threw her fist around only to punch the dark air around her.

"Don't you talk about my father like that," she screamed. The unknown Icejin chuckled, placing his arms around December's tiny waist. December growled, "Who the hell are you?"

"Oh December, you don't remember me do you? I'm hurt," he purred. "Don't you remember when we last met?"

December's blood ran cold. How did she not recognise the voice? "*It can't be. My father killed him,*" her mind raced. The unknown Icejin smirked kissing her neck again, "So you do remember me, my dear".

December nodded in disbelief.

"Blizaran!"

"AHHHHHHHHHH!"

December screamed as she awoke from a strange and very real dream. She was sitting upright in a large, comfy bed. She looked at her hands.

"*What the fuck just happened?*" she thought. She heard a moan from the other side of the bed. Cautiously, she took a peek over the side to see…

"Cooler!" She yelled in a mixture of surprise and shock.

Cooler was on his stomach. It was clear to December that he had fallen out of bed when she screamed, as he was looking up at her clearly not impressed. December frowned.

"What the hell are you doing in my room! Don't you have your own? Why are you in my bed!" She yelled whilst covering herself with the covers.

Cooler sighed and stood up. He crossed his arms over his chest, looking down at the Princess. "This IS my room and you're in MY bed," He stated in an "as a matter of fact" tone of voice.

December's jaw fell open. "And just who's idea was this?" she asked, crossing her arms over her covered chest.

Cooler sighed, climbing back into bed and lying down. "It was my father's," he said, "We are soon to be mates after all. We might as well get use to the fact of sleeping in the same bed as each other."

He then grinned, "And the other things that come with being mates. In fact, I feel quite aroused right now".

Cooler burst into fits of laughter at the horrified look on his soon to be mates face. December was (for once) lost for words.

"Don't worry December, I don't intend on taking you…..yet."

December glared. She too followed Cooler's example and snuggled back down into the covers.

"What did you scream out for?" She heard him ask. She swore she heard a little bit of concern in his voice when asking that question.

"It was nothing, just a bad dream," she lied. Cooler seemed to have took her answer; a good thing really, because December didn't have another excuse.

"Well whatever the reason, go back to sleep. We are up early in the morning," The prince yawned.

December nodded and lied on her back for a while, her mind wandering to the dream. It really troubled her. How had Blizaran gotten back? Her father had killed him because he tried to kill December when she ignored his advances. How could he be alive? It wasn't possible, it didn't make sense. She turned onto her side, facing Cooler's back.

A thought drifted into her mind, "*What does this have to do with Cooler?"

Queen Avalanche had the gift of foresight. Could it be possible that her mother had seen Blizaran's return, stronger and more dangerous than last time? Therefore, in fear of losing his daughter, Snow had called upon King Cold's help? Said 'help' being in the form of Cold's oldest son, who was lying right next to her? She knew Cooler had a 4th transformation stage beyond his current 3rdstage he was in now, could he be stronger then Blizaran, and if so would he be able to protect her? December's mind hurt. So many questions raced through her head but she was too confused and tired to think anymore. Sighing, she began to slowly close her eyes.

"Hey," the prince called out.

December growled, "What is it, Cooler?"

There was a small pause before he spoke, "Do you want me to cuddle you?"

"…Shut up!"

Cooler chuckled and turned onto his back. He had been reading her mind whilst pretending to be asleep.

"*This "Blizaran" sounds dangerous*", he thought. However he had sworn to King Snow that, no matter the cost, he would protect December. That was the real reason for taking her to Planet Taria (soon to be Planet Cooler 257), so Blizaran wouldn't find her. She could live with Cooler on the planet away from danger. Cooler sighed. A soft breathing sound came from December, indicating she was asleep. Cooler smiled and turned over to face her. She really was beautiful; her soft, sky blue skin, her pale pink hair. Those beautiful crimson eyes that burned like fire. He brushed a stray piece of hair out of her face. December stirred in her sleep and, unintentionally, cuddled up to the purple Icejin. Her arm snugly wrapped around his strong stomach, while her head rested on his chest. Her tail coiled around his. Cooler chuckled lightly, not wanting to wake her up. (He didn't fancy being punched in the groin. Feared lord of the universe or not, a hit in the crown jewels hurt like hell!) He smiled a genuine smile, lightly kissing the top of her head.

"Goodnight….My Love".
