Chapter 3: It can always...

Another update, writers block shifted the second half several times when I tried to figure out how I wanted to do this.

Bra already knew things would go bad as Broly grinned at her. "Well little half-breed. I wonder how well you scream-!" His lips pulled back into that cruel grin.

Broly's fingers wrapped around her wrist, another grabbed her opposite shoulder. Smelling the blood and watching how it still dripped down his chest Bra could feel the real terror gripping her body. But she swallowed her fear and looked straight into those white eyes without fear. "If you kill me this ship will crashland on the nearest pile of shit and leave your ass there."

However the reaction she got wasn't expected either. He laughed, "You think I care?" stopping until he leaned himself forwards to where his nose was almost touching her own. "I'll blow up the damn world and then Kakarot will find me."

"You won't find him going from world to world." She replied as his hand slid up from her shoulder and touched her neck. She could feel the blood smear onto the top of her skin. His thumb brushing the underside of her jaw and slowly dragged his nail along her neck.

"I will find Kakarot. I will fight him and kill him." Turning her head to the side he drew in a breath of her scent. "I don't care how it happens or when." His tongue dipped down and licked from her throat to the underside of her jaw.

"That might not happen, because he might not be there if you take too long." Bra said doing her best not to become unnerved not trying to let his actions overtake her senses. 'Don't show fear, Don't show fear.' Bra told herself repeatedly.

"Explain." Broly said pulling back his face from her and looked squarely into her eyes, she could see the reflection in them and she had suppress the shudder from escaping inside of her.

"Goku, he trains with Beerus and the other universes. You won't be able to find him that easily." Broly's brow twitched slightly but he remained where he was. "You could bounce around the entire universe trying to find him, but it won't matter if he's not even in this one. He could be in several different places and you'd have no way of getting to him without the help of Whis the person who oversees what Beerus and this universe. Basically if you don't get his help you will never find Goku and you'll never beat hi-"

Broly slammed his fist down shearing off the arm of the chair Bra was sitting on. "I will, I will defeat Kakarot. I'm stronger now, stronger than ever."

The situation was still precarious but this also presented her with an opportunity, one that might by her time and save her life, if not more. "I'll get you to Whis, i'll give you your shot at fighting Goku but I'll ask for something in exchange."

The hand holding her jaw gripped her by the throat it was close to crushing but not enough. Coughing Bra's hands grabbed at the wrist as she tried to pull back the massive arm in vain. "I don't." She managed as Broly's fingers tightened. "Want to die."

Broly's head slowly turned as he watched her struggle. "I could snap your neck, end your miserable life without a second thought half-breed. You are so weak, and you share the same blood as me. You are also afraid of dying." He hoisted her up from the chair her legs dangling near his waist. "But you also are not panicking I can hear each of your heartbeats. In fact even when I was chasing your unique scent you were not that afraid, you weren't like those weaklings that I crushed. In fact I watched you when I first came into that room. You didn't run from me… You didn't try and flee because you knew how strong I was and like a good female you submitted." Drawing back Broly licked at her neck again his tongue tasting all of those unique flavors on her skin. She possessed fertility, though not a prissy virgin, and whatever she was bred with was something else. "I actually like the way you taste. You're not disgusting, you actually taste sweet."

He moved his lips towards her mouth but as he tried to taste her lips something struck out at him and her nails swung at him, the edges drawing blood from his cheek and making Broly start and his grip faltered for a moment in surprise. She kicked at his stomach and he dropped her. The action not hurting him in the slightest.

"Don't you fucking dare put your disgusting lips on mine. I am a god damn saiyan prin-! You-," Her voice once so thick switched tones as she struggled to stop herself from spitting out a word. "You have no right to touch me!"

Broly's tongue swept out from his mouth and licked at the blood on his face before drawing back in. "So you aren't a complete waste of saiyan blood." Yet before Bra could even flinch he grabbed her.

The half-breed saiyan felt the cold steel ding against the back of her head as Broly pinned her squarely into the floor. Her head was still ringing slightly as the saiyan's face came back into view. "I like that fire little girl."

"More woman than you can handle." She spat back at him, "Since you haven't killed me yet, like you did everyone else I know you realize that I'm right." It was a bold assumption on her part, but her mind had been built around logical thought and gut instinct. Right now her gut was telling her that she was 100% correct on her analysis of the man looming overtop of her. "So just cut the bullshit with me right now and let me up or do you intend on just holding me down?"

Her sharp defined glare, it irked Broly as she resembled someone but he could not place it. "I have no qualms about killing you and the reason I haven't killed you is because you are a saiyan, and a female one no less." He grabbed her wrist with his free hand and brought it in front her face. "Would you like to see how much pain I can put your through little girl?" His ki crackled from his hand and instantly he watched as Bra's eyes flinched from the pain. "I can snap your limbs, breaking your bones and leave you begging for death for weeks little girl."

The burning pain was there, as she felt the streaks of ki pulsing through her body. "It still won't get you what you want." Bra said through her teeth as Broly only increased the sparks from his hand causing Bra's body to jerk and her head to snap to the side until she began to actually scream.

Each spark was blinding and she felt as if her body was suffering each jerk and spasm. "Y-You will n-n-never find him without ME-!" She screamed as her body thrashed all around, her screams echoing throughout the ship's space until finally it all stopped.

She was gasping for air, her entire body still sparking slightly as the after effects of Broly's ki was overwhelming her senses. Her limbs were trembling unwilling to follow her commands to stop. Bra barely realized she was on her side as Broly looked down at ther.

"I will spare your life, but only until you get me to Kakarot."

While he was speaking Bra was only looking at her wrist that had some severe red marks on it. It wasn't blistering or bleeding but she could see exactly where his hand had been. Clutching the injured arm close to her chest Bra struggled to regain control over her breathing. Not looking towards the saiyan whose pale blue hair faded away until the massive looming figure shrunk several feet.

Blue eyes now looked into a pair of coal black ones, that figure that once held a thickness of more than double her body size was no more. Long black locks of spikes fell around his waist as a look of bland distaste fell over his face. The long twisted grin and cruel expression replaced with a look of melancholy it was such a surreal thing, but as Bra looked at him she realized another thing was now different.

Stepping out of the long since shredded white pants that he had been wearing in his transformed state and with no belt to keep them upright the saiyan gave no care or concern as he stood bare in front of her. "I suggest you get figure out a course to find Kakarot, I will give you a day."

Bra's expression turned from pain into a glare. "Asshole, you nearly burn my arm and now expect me to use it to navigate space?"

He shrugged, Broly turned around made his way towards the back of the ship intent on finding out what commodities they had onboard. His point made Broly was ready to just take a moment to sleep and recover his energies. Having maintained that form for so long he didn't realize just how much it had taken out of him. But it wouldn't take long, afterall he was the Legendary.

Bra watched him disappear into one of the back quarters of the ship before finally letting her tears fall. Her arm was on fire, though compared to before this was like a bad sunburn, for a saiyan at least. The red marks of his fingers were still there and she just laid there for several minutes just wallowing in her own misery until the pain was manageable for her. Getting herself up onto her feet while still keeping her injured appendage tucked against her chest. Making herself as comfortable as she could in the pilot's chair Bra quickly got into the main features of the ship, she didn't exactly have time to look at them beforehand with everything that had happened.

Her eyes flipping through the screens of the controls and logs of information with one hand just as fluidly as she could manage. Then a large flashing red warning alerted her to a very serious problem.

Fuel Levels- Critical-! *Leak detected*

She didn't ask she didn't wait for permission as she immediately grabbed the controls and then threw the ship in the direction of the nearest planet that had some level of space technology. The universe wasn't truly a friendly place but she really wasn't given a choice. The ship wasn't a purpose built space faring vessel, it was a larger style escape ship.

Her target was a tan world, but as she did her fingers fumbled through to the communication systems and hoped before her landing she might be able to send out a message. A quick one to her mother or father through either of the two channels that might be able to receive the signal.

[***]

Broly was looking for some measure of sustenance, it had been almost half an hour since he left the half-breed to do whatever she needed to do. Yet there was a glaring problem with the damn ship!

'There is no FOOD-!' There was nothing on this damn ship, aside from water there was nothing for him to eat. He was getting quite hungry and felt the annoyance of the pangs from his stomach as it growled and rumbled. "Useless." He spat banging his hand against the storage device.

Hunger pains were something he was still getting used too, after being dead for so long one did not have the need to eat. Since his resurrection he hadn't partaken of much food at all and his extended transformation had his body demanding some form of sustenance.

Broly felt the entire ship shudder and rock and then his body was thrown to the side, smashing into the wall with a less than glorious thud Broly released a snarl. 'That little bitch!' Seeing nothing but her trickery for this act Broly could feel the heavy shaking of the ship, his senses could detect the rapid heating of metal.

He jumped out into the main control area watching as the half breed tucked the controls of the ship into her chest. "The hell are you doing?" Snapping though he could see the burnin glow of an atmospheric entry on the screen.

Not that it wasn't apparent to the Legendary as he felt the ship jerking around on entry. "Shit-! Shit-! It's not pulling up!"

"Why the hell not?" Broly snarled as he grabbed the seat next to her.

"Because it just fucking won't!"

The ship banked hard as the controls quit responding sending Broly into the wall and Bra barely remained hanging onto the seat as the entire thing became a fireball on the outside.

"We're going to die-!" Bra shrieked as the planet came in fast, even faster than she was prepared for. Her hands went up to protect her face in vain. She blacked out before anything even impacted on the ground.

Everything felt heavy, like she was being weighed down by hundreds of pounds or her limbs were stuck in a thick muck and she could barely lift her fingers. I… have to be alive… It was the only thought that came to her. She was breathing, the taste of her own spit was in her mouth and soon the presence of a growing pain in her head began to grow. The numbness giving way to her body's natural reaction as the pain sensors no longer dulled her from it.

She couldn't recall what had happened, she remembered the screen becoming a fireball and then… nothing.

A muffled groan came as she struggled to open her eyes. Aside from the pain there was still nothing but a glossiness and haze that refused to lift from her vision.

"... ma….le … at... " Someone was talking but she couldn't pick up any part of it.

Her head was really starting to hurt. She just wanted to give back in and surrender herself to that darkness but, there was still a fear of the unknown.

Her stubbornness as a Brief and saiyan also did not let her give up yet.

Her head rolled and she felt the fog parting for just a moment. Sitting cross legged was a familiar white tattered pants.

It was Broly.

She tried to speak but couldn't even manage that. A soft rasp escaped from her lungs. She wanted to know what was going on. Where were they? Where was the ship? And did he save her?

The saiyan's scowl was looking down at her with annoyance. "About time half-breed."

He was ready to begin berating her for trying to kill him, but the fact she had nearly died in the process of that damn ship crashing on the planet left. Having put a shield around the both of them before the main impact had spared him any real damage, but she had slammed off his ki and back into him knocking her completely out cold. She was pathetically weak for a saiyan, but at least had a level of durability.

Saving her life was just par for the course considering the ship was completely junk at this point, he needed a way to reaching Kakarot and she was it for now. It was the only reason she wasn't dead, but even that had a limit to his patience.

So he had brought her down the surface, clearing out a small area to where she could recover her strength and he could go about finding some damn food.

Thankfully this planet had something palpable that he could eat. Reaching back behind him he grabbed a large thigh bone with plenty of meat on it that was cooking and began to eat more. He noted the way the female still struggled to regain sense of her faculties. "Sleep idiot. If you were going to die I would've killed you already."

Slowly Bra gave up on keeping herself conscious and relented, her eyes falling limp as the notion of death was at least temporarily postponed.

Broly remained feasting on his meat until a shrill cry turned his head towards some unwanted company.

Pulling himself up onto his feet the saiyan with half a leg still in his hand looked towards the mess heading in his direction. A mix of fur covered humanoids of varying shapes and sizes, they resembled bovine's with their body shape, but they were covered in a thick mess of fur.

It made cleaning their corpses difficult unless he just fried them right.

At least their meat was edible.

Taking another large bite from the limb in an open mockery of those coming towards him Broly merely chuckled, he was still very hungry. How nice of the locals to come to him.

Broly didn't even bother transforming, he was more than capable of dealing with them. Raising up both of his hands he prepared to greet the fodder in kind. "At least they will be more entertaining than those weaklings on the ship." His tongue licked at the side of his mouth as he exploded forwards his mind locked on the coming slaughter that he missed an set of eyes in the land beside him.

One of the native population slid its hands around Bra's unconscious form and picked her up, the being looked at Bra's limp body and brushed a hand over her cheek. Momentarily studying the creature in their arms before shaking their head and leaving, ignoring the slaughter that they could not stop as the beast that had come onto their world began to cackle and roar with the sickest form of delight.

Hoping they had enough time they loaded up on a large beast nearby before heading off, a massive horse with six legs. It's size several times greater than one would see on Earth, and its speed were many times more.

Taking off in a cloud of dirt and dust, the native creature with Bra in tow sped away from the location with as much haste as possible.

Though they would make great time and the land would soon be turning dark even still they could hear the bellowing roar as the monster that had come to their world discovered that something had been taken from him.
