New Laws

Covered in speckles of nearly atomized puree of flesh and blood, dotting his armor like many fancy gemstones upon a royal\'s crown, Vegeta calmly slid himself back in to the chambers of the council, arms crossed over his chest. Two almost infinitesimal specs glided in behind him, and floated past him, onto the table before the row of older men.



"Well, Prince." spoke the eldest of the lot, standing up as slowly as he spoke. "We have viewed your revenge, and have deliberated. We found your display of passion, wrath, and anger to be a little over performed, but in the light of what\'s allegedly happening to you, we can understand a little non Princely emotion. We will be launching a full investigation in to the identity and associations into the man and family you have sought vengeance upon, and have concluded that your test of Kinghood has been completed." he trailed off, and sat back down in his chair, evidently to catch his breath. A couple of the others exchanged glances, before a younger member stood up. Vegeta rolled his eyes slightly in irritation of the pace at which this final judgment was occurring. His entire Kingship rode on the next few moments, the fate of the entire saijin race almost, and these fuckers couldn\'t speed it up any?



"In light of this occurrence," the younger council member finally spoke up. "We have determined beyond shadow of any doubt that you are capable in your entirety to serve and control women as the gods ordained a King to control. We believe that you are capable of carrying the title of Godshands Master of Women." The man sat down, and the one next to him stood.



"We have determined beyond shadow of any doubt that you are capable in your entirety to deduce and solve common problems facing the King, that your morals are correctly facing and serving of the Gods as they have ordained a King to be. We believe that you are capable of carrying the title of Godshands Master of Law and Rule." This man sat down, and the man in the center, the eldest one who held the most esteem in the group, stood and spoke.



"We have determined beyond shadow of any doubt that you are capable...*Cough...* in your entirety...*Cough cough...* to defend and offend matters of battle and justice...*Cough cough...* for matters to and against the throne, planet, and her peoples...*COUGH COUGH COUGH COUGH...*" the man sputtered a little, and placed a hand over his chest. "As the....Gods have....ordained..."



Oh fuck. The old man was dying. He couldn\'t hold on for a SENTENCE MORE? The two council elders aside him stood, and grasped his arms, supporting him.



"Come on, finish it off, just a bit more; then we\'ll take you to see a Turle about it..."



"Yes, I...*Cough...*....as the...Gods have ordained....a King....to do...We believe...that you...are...capa- *cough cough...* capable of carrying....the title of....*Cough...* of.... *Cough cough cough...* of... Godshands...Master of...Battle..."



Vegeta bit the inside of his lip to stop himself from barking at the council to hurry it up. He was about to gain his rights to Kingship, and these buggers were holding up the old man and coaxing him along towards the door for the damn doctors. He was going to die anyway, why couldn\'t they just sit his ass back down in the chair, and let him pass where he was supposed to be? There was no honor in dying in some bed, with Tuffles and servants toiling around his weakening body. He should sit and die where his life had set him to be, in his chair ordaining the next King!



"Sit him down, men..." Vegeta interrupted, as they led the elder towards the door. "His ki is no more. Let him exit as he was supposed to, he is not a man to pass on in a bed with servants at his side. Let him pass where he served his life; let him die with honor." The group looked and stared incredulously at the Prince; was he suggesting seriously that they LET the elder die instead of seeking help?



"You are out of line!" one growled at Vegeta, sneering and grasping his hands into fists.



"No...*Cough...* he is...correct to....tell you..." the old man piped up, turning his head to look over. "He is....right....My ki is...no more. It would be death...no matter where I....sit. Let me....serve...this last....King." Solemn but angry obedience set in to the other men, who led their chief elder back to his chair. A glimmer of knowledge and great respect entered the man\'s eye as he reclined in his chair, looking up at the Prince.



"I believe...I finally...understand you,....Prince....*Cough cough* Your....mother....would have been....proud to....see you here...before us....*cough*...speaking to us....like this....listen well, child....*cough COUGH COUGH sputter...* Do not....let....your father\'s....darkness....overtake your....mother\'s....heart....of the Gods...*Cough...*...the darkness...grows in you....and I see....many hard lessons....in your future...Prince."



Vegeta\'s brows furrowed in thought and confusion. He would never become anything like his father; the entire mission of his life thus far was to change the path of the planet that the King had set forth! He decided he was going to forget this senile comment of warning, and frowned. Would they please get on with granting him Kingship?



"May this become permanent in the records of Vegeta-sai for all time and future generations to know;" the youngest one spoke, standing up to speak as a small light lit up on the desk. It was a voice recorder. "Here this day of the 24th day of 3 months passing of the 737th age, we institute the Right of Kingship upon Prince Vegeta, which has been proven and earned before the council with a grading of 100%."



The little light went out, and the man sat down. "There will be an announcement made by the council to the public in the morning; you will need to attend, and announce Kaana as your woman, where you will be locked together under the Gods as husband and wife pertaining to the laws of the Gods. She will no longer be a servant and no longer bound by the laws of such, and does not owe any obedience to any laws except for those binding royalty. She will be announced as future Queen, and at this time will become Princess. Until the AM, Prince, prepare yourself. You are released from the chambers."



Without wasting a second, Vegeta charged his Ki, and flew from the room, making a beeline towards his to-be wife, to tell her of the news. As the door shut, a solitary figure slid forward from the darkness, his white three toed feet slipping into the light, followed by the rest of his purple-white figure. He shook his black-horned head, and smirked.



"Good job boys; I don\'t believe anyone is aware of my presence, yet. Let\'s keep it that way. Send off more soldiers to aquire me more planets to sell off; let\'s get this planet stripped of it\'s stronger fighters while the mice play their politics."



"Yes, Lord Frieza." the council spoke in unison, as if brain washed.



"Before long, I will own King Veldock Vegeta, and this planet will be mine to use as a military base. Then no one in the entire universe will be able to cross me, and I will own it all, ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"
