"Kakarotto, Kakarotto! Tell me that you can hear me!" Kakarotto could hear a voice that sounded both near and very far to him. He struggled, but Kakarotto finally managed to open his eyes. Everything was a blur to him; he was beginning to feel rather sick from his ever-spinning surroundings. "Kakarotto, how many fingers am I holding up?" A gloved hand was placed in front of Kakarotto's bruised and bleeding face. With squinted eyes, Kakarotto's vision finally began to focus.
"Uh..." Kakarotto groaned as he tried his best to make sense of what was going on around him. "T-three...?" The gloved hand moved away from Kakarotto's face and he looked up to see someone very familiar looking down on him, Vegeta. "Y-you...!" Without warning, Vegeta found himself face-down in the dirt. "You, it's your fault you bastard!" Vegeta got up and grabbed hold of Kakarotto's weak wrists.
"Listen to me, Baka!" Vegeta screamed while shaking Kakarotto violently. "If it wasn't for me, you'd probably be dead!"
"I wouldn't have even been in that position if you hadn't have made your so called 'Great Escape'!" Kakarotto screamed back. It must have been too much for him, because Kakarotto soon collapsed into Vegeta's arms.
"Well, if you're going to be like that, then I'll just drop you!" Vegeta said with a warning tone. He wasn't going to let this debate slip; he did have his reasons for leaving. Vegeta was going to continue with his part of the argument until he heard a quiet sound of sobbing. Kakarotto was crying and in his arms, on his shoulder. Vegeta began to rub Kakarotto's back in attempt to calm him down. "Hey, no need to weep, its okay, you're safe, and Frieza won't ever find us..." Kakarotto's face then shot up. His cheeks were stained, his eyes were bloodshot, and he was exhausted.
"Frieza, what happened to him, where are we anyway?" Vegeta put a finger to Kakarotto's lips in order to silence him.
"Frieza has been taking care of...I promise you now Kakarotto, he won't ever hurt you again..." Vegeta tilted Kakarotto's chip up so that their eyes met. "I promise..." Suddenly, there was a growling noise and Vegeta held Kakarotto tighter to protecting from the up and coming attackers. Vegeta powered up and Kakarotto giggled. "What's so funny...?" Vegeta asked wide-eyed. Kakarotto blushed and giggled again.
"No one is attacking us, that noise was my stomach, I'm hungry...sorry..."
