Four weeks had passed since then, and a day before it was time for Orion and Android 16 to leave back home. During these past weeks, Orion would rush to the bathroom to vomit up any breakfast she ate, alongside that, she would refuse to eat sometimes, rendering Android 16 worried, and when she did eat, she ate large portions. This wasn't too worrisome since saiyans are known for their larger portions. But this was a little too much, the mood swings and all was different, eventually, 16 went to the capsule care box that Bulma gave them on their send off, and picked one labeled as "for Orion" he opened the capsule, and a few things fell out, first was condoms, one were pads- and tampons- and one was a Pregnancy Test, he remembered Android 17 told him that it would be important if he had unprotected sex with his partner. He ran back up the stairs to Orion who was sitting on the toilet.
"Nova? I think you should take this." 16 said, handing the pregnancy test over to her. Orion was a little nervous.
"Pregnancy Test?" Orion asked.
"Yes, I do have every reason to do so since you- there's no other way to put it, and I'll leave you to it, Nova." 16 said, leaving the room. Orion looked down and was panicky. She didn't know what to do, she couldn't be pregnant! She barely knew how to be a parent.
She saw how Bulma, 18 and Chi-Chi do it, but she's unsure on how she would do it… She remembered her past that she tried so hard to run away from and felt a little sick, but she should be able to take the test and see if she was. She'll never know if she didn't try.
So following the directions on the box, she placed the test on the counter, and felt the minutes tick by slowly, she felt anxious and worried about the results, before a beep was heard. She perked up and took a deep breath before looking at the results, she paled before sobbing. She was pregnant. 16 came back moments after and looked at her.
"Is there something wrong, Nova?" 16 asked.
"I'm pregnant, Gevo." Orion said, 16 smiled and knelt down to her height placing both hands on her stomach.
"Why are you worried?" 16 asked.
"...It's just… My parents… My family… I'm scared, 16…" Orion said.
"Why are you? Didn't you say, your family died because of Elite Saiyans?" 16 arched an eyebrow at her, Orion took a deep breathe
"I was lying… I lied, 16, they died, because of me…" Orion said, 16 pulled away in surprise at her admission.
"W-What?" 16 asked.
She took a deep breath.
"It all started when I was younger…" Orion began.
Exactly 25 years ago, Orion was a young 10 year old, who was born of dominion between two elite saiyans. They worked hand in hand with the royal family, so naturally Orion became friends with Tarble, May and not Prince Vegeta…
Orion looked up to the warriors and other elites and hoped to become just like them, so every year she would practice and practice, and practice until she was 12. She was supposed to channel Ki but everytime she tried to charge a Ki blast it would fizzle out. No matter what she tried it wouldn't work, practicing wasn't working either. So Orion's parents took her to see a Saiyan Pediatrician.
"Hello, Kikoree and Zuchine, I see you brought your Daughter, How is your son?" The doctor asked.
"He's doing amazing, he got his first mission in the Frieza Force." Kikoree said he was pretty proud of both his children and loved how Orion and Arugulot went along- mostly.
"I see, well what brings you here, today?" The doctor asked.
"It's Krota, she seemingly can't charge a Ki Blast, normally kids her age would be able to do so without complication and we're planning on sending her off to the Frieza Force…" Zuchine said with worry. She pats her hair.
"I see, well. I can tell your Daughter has a low power level." The Doctor said.
"What?" Kikoree said.
"Yes, she has a power level of 2. That is a problem. But luckily- and this is a big but… We are currently working on serums to help aid any child sayians development and hopefully they could finally learn Ki Blasts. I can refer you to the Doctor- Er, Scientist." The Doctor said, handing Zuchine a card, she read it alongside her husband.
"Thank you, Doctor Nopales. This means alot to our little girl." Zuchine said, getting up.
"Kikoree and Krota, let's go, we need to go now." The three of them walked to the location. At first the location was a little sketchy because of the location and walking to the door, Kikoree knocked on the door, and a Saiyan looked through the rectangle peephole, before piping up.
"Who is it?" The voice asked.
"Uh, we are Zuchine and Kikoree, we were referred to by Doctor Nopales." Kikoree said, there was silence before noises of the deadbolt and other locks were heard, what stood in front of them was a scientist with messy black hair and a bit of soot on his body.
"Welcome, welcome, I take it that you're here for your daughter? To increase her power level?" The Scientist asked.
"Yes, of course- Uh… What's your name?" Kikoree asked.
"Call me Dr. Rhu." Dr. Rhu said, Kikoree nodded.
"Krota has a power level of 2, and we want her to not feel bad about it, we want her to be just like the others she looked up to." Zuchine said, Dr. Rhu nods. And smiled.
"Luckily, for you I have this serum." He pulled a needle out, "This has not been tested yet so we are unsure of any side effects from this." Dr. Rhu said.
"Uh, are you sure it's safe?" Kikoree asked with worry. Dr. Rhu sighed.
"Of course." Dr. Rhu said and placed it inside her. Orion winces and feels different.
"Now, try and do a Ki Blast." Dr. Rhu instructs. Orion does so, and the Ki Blast is pretty big and it blasts against the wall.
"Wonderful!" Dr. Rhu said, and smiled at the two amazed parents.
"Thank you Dr. Rhu!" Zuchine said, and Orion smiled happily.
What happened next was Orion training to get strong, but tragically this led to her going into bouts of rage that destroyed half the house, her parents tried to help her, and feared that they would endanger their older son, so they contacted Captain Ginyu to allow Arugulot to stay full time on the ship, Ginyu granted that and he was only told his parents needed to help their sister.
As time passes, Orion's continuous rage only got worse, and worse and worse and worse. What started off as destruction of property turned to her assaulting her parents. Her parents knew that it wasn't her fault and were quite understanding. But they knew they couldn't keep up with her at all, so the day came.
Orion ended up injuring her parents to the point the house collapsed killing them both. This made her snap out of her rage momentarily before realizing what she did, she fell to her knees and sobbed.
"Mama, Papa…" Orion cried, and looked around. Eventually, she see's King Vegeta and Nappa. She was confused and Nappa crossed his arms.
"Well, you must be Krota. I've heard a lot about you from your parents and my son… I am here to have you taken care of by my son's caregiver Nappa." King Vegeta said.
"Mama… Papa…" Orion sniffles, and Nappa takes her hand. Orion looked back at the house and saw a few Saiyans take their bodies to put them to rest. Orion headed to the castle while Nappa watched after her. This proceeded for a while until King Vegeta realized how threatening she was. Nappa was ordered to escort her to a pod and send her on her way. It was better than stabbing another kid.
"I'm sorry, young one. It's not yer fault, you're just different from all of us." Nappa said, Orion sniffled and Nappa hugged her. Before sighing and kneeling down to her height.
"You know, you're special. Not many of us have such power levels as you do. Maybe someday I'll get to see you again, here." Nappa said, reaching into his pocket and handing her a locket.
"I know how much you miss your parents so I commissioned something for you." Nappa said, and placed it around her neck. "And here's something from me for you to keep to remind you of me." Nappa handed her a Scouter.
"This will track others' power levels." Nappa said, now getting up and ushering her into the pod.
"Have a nice life, Orion." He said, sending her off. Orion frowned and was sent through space. Eventually she landed on a planet, she opened the pod, and was met with two saiyans. One was a kid her age and the other one was a grown man.
"Who are you guys?" She asked.
"I am Paragus and this is my son, Broly." Paragus said.
"Where am I?" Orion asked.
"You're on Planet Vampa, why are you here?" He asked.
"They sent me away because I was too… Dangerous…" She sadly said, Paragus was shocked and a flash of anger was seen on his face before it went away.
"You're safe here."
After awhile, this planet was strange and she noticed how toxic and unfeeling Paragus was, she became really good friends with Broly, but the abuse and mistreatment by Paragus made her yearn for the softness of Nappa's kindness and she felt isolated, even with Broly being a close friend he would unintentionally hurt her. Orion didn't want to be tied to Saiyan's a cold, and cruel race that will sell out their own in fear… in fear of one overthrowing others. So this is the day she became Orion.
As she grew alongside Broly, Broly felt some feelings towards her. This caused him to get attached to her, and led him to initiating some form of "intimacy" which led to Paragus discovering this, enraged by Broly's fidelity and marking he immediately waited until she was carrying before botching the pregnancy.
This led to Orion being traumatized, and Broly couldn't do anything about it but watch helplessly as his father abused his one and only ripping the child out, Orion fell to the ground in pain. Paragus dropped the wailing now dead child on the ground before starting a ki blast killing it. Orion was covered in blood and she looked at the young child in horror.
"Don't try anything with Broly." Paragus said, before turning to leave to find food. Orion knew that she needed to get the fuck out of here she couldn't be here, she needed to defend herself so she began to work on her pod and getting it to work, on the day she was prepared to leave Broly caught her and ran up to her.
"Where are you going?" Broly asked, Orion placed a hand on his cheek.
"Away from here. I don't want to get hurt by your father anymore…" Orion said. Broly frowned and looked down.
"Please don't go…" Broly begged. "You're the only one here who understands me…"
"I have to… I am sorry Broly." Orion said.
"...It was sick how he ruthlessly killed our baby like that…" Orion said, and teared up. "He might kill me one day and I don't want to risk that." Orion said.
"Broly! What are you doing!? What did I tell you, GIRL!? To stay away from my son!" Paragus proceeded to run up to Orion and grabbed her by the neck before lifting her in the air, she was choking and Broly freaked out. Orion was feeling lightheaded and she couldn't see what's going on. Broly threw himself onto his father pulling him off Orion, Paragus lost grip on her neck and instead went for her necklace that Nappa gave her, her eyes widened, it had her parents on it. She screamed and attempted to stop him but too little, too late.
The necklace broke and fell on the floor between Broly and Paragus' legs, Broly pocketed it, and looked towards Orion.
"Go on! Leave! Please wait for me!" Broly begs, Orion nodded, and went into the Pod, feeling her heart race, this was when she crashed landed on Earth and how she met Goku and the others, to meeting Android 16 and such.
16 was in shock at Orion's story, feeling like all the questions he had were answered. He knelt down and took both her hands in his.
"Nova, look at me…" 16 said.
"No, you probably think I am disgusting, an innocent life was killed because of me." Orion said.
"It wasn't your fault your baby died, and it sure as hell wasn't this Broly's." 16 said.
"Gevo, I willingly allowed a baby to be created because I foolishly had sex with someone who had a psychopathic father." Orion said, "And I killed my parents…" Orion said.
"Are you saying that you wouldn't make a good mother because you killed your parents?" 16 asked.
"Yes, what if I bring a child into this world that ended up being just like me? Broken and…. And I am scared." Orion teared up.
"No, I won't let that happen, I promise I will help you and won't let our child get hurt." Android 16 said.
"Really?" Orion asked.
16 nodded and kissed her head.
"Now, rest while I pack our things to return tomorrow."16 lifted her up and placed her on the bed.
