HOUSE OF VEGETA CHRONICLES 2

Dawn skies muted soft shades of reds, purples, and oranges. Wisps of
green and blue added to the tapestry of color. The air was thick and
humid, fragrant with jungle foilage and soil. It was a typical
morning on Vegetaseii.

Various jungle denizens peeped, whistled and roared in the treetops.
The dominant specie had now retreated, their nocturnal forays done.

Two members of said dominant specie lay entwined near a shaded
waterfall, their bronzed bodies gleaming under doppled sunlight. A
wild nest of vines and leaves made a bed of primitive, sensual
comfort.

Vegeta opened his eyes slowly. He immediately breathed in deep, musky
scent. Tilting his head slighty, he inhaled the fragrant mop of hair
that covered his face.

"Hn..."

A lazy yawn. Bardock blinked to awareness as well, purring softly. A
blue black tail playfully stroked thick thighs.

The Ou grunted. "Bardock, I know you're awake."

The handsome warrior opened an eye. "Maybe. You stink, koi..." he
rubbed against his mate, grinning stupidly.

Vegeta growled softly. "Rrrrr...I would taste you later. But we need
to talk!"

Bardock kissed his hand. "Why? The jungle is sweet this morning-"

"Ai, it is, but there's something important to discuss..."

"Like what, Vegeta? Stop babbling about discussions. We can talk
later!"

"Hentai!"

"Heh, I'll bang that fat butt again...I think I did last night!"

Sharp fangs clacked. "Not as hard as I banged yours. Now be quiet and
listen!"

Bardock yawned again, lazily flopping over his mate. Their tails
coiled.

"Let's get this over with...it's warm, and I feel really gooood..."

Vegeta sidled alongside, turning to face him fully. "Do you remember
what I said last night?"

Another silly grin. "Hell no...are you sure we talked at all?"

Vegeta cuffed his head, annoyed. "Asshole. Do you remember??"

Bardock sniffed, eyes sharpening finally. "Not really...you asked me
about Raditz, I believe."

Dark eyes smouldered with feeling. "I've kept track of him...seen the
holographs you've shown me..."

Bardock stared. "Are you alright? This is-"

"He's beautiful, well formed. I can't even hold him!!"

Strong hands gripped his mate. "Vegeta, we've been over this. The
situation-"

"I know the fucking situation!"

Snarl. "Your own damned fault...what the hell did you expect? You
can't even claim the cub as your heir...and our people will require
one soon enough!"

"Don't tell me how to be king. The public will get what they
want...one way or another! My soul burns, Bardock. I'm torn in two."

Dark eyes reviewed him. "Are you insane? My life's been disrupted,
too. Celipe's finally accepted the boy, but-"

"I don't care about that ragtail, Bardock! Our son is blooded, and
meant for rule."

The fine warrior sat up abruptly, turning his back. A thick coil
lashed in anger. "She's still my wife, regardless of what you think.
And you forget, legally I'm third class as well!!"

Vegeta roared. "Shikshei! My ass...we both know what you are!!"

The dark head turned. "Do you have a point?"

Vegeta was very still. "There is another cub."

Bardock blinked. "Say what?"

"That's what I tried to tell you last night...I'm carrying another
chibi."

The dark warrior stuttered in stupification. "You...you lie!!"

The Ou stretched on his back languidly, deliberately exposing his
belly. His mate stared in confusion.

"What the hell game is this, Vegeta?"

Vegeta took his hand and placed it on himself. "No game,
Bardock...concentrate and feel the truth."

In total disbelief, Bardock traced his hand over the chiseled torso.
Sensitive fingers dipped into clefted muscle and planed hardness.
Ever so gently he probed the small belly slit below the navel.
Startled, he noticed for the first time how it opened and protruded
slightly at his touch.

"This...can't be..."

Velvet eyes partially closed as Vegeta watched him. "No, it's true.
Can you feel it?"

Bardock felt his instincts take over. A haze, the nimbus of ki that
was Vegeta flowed out in waves of power.

And there was something else. He frowned, closing his eyes. A spark.

"I..."

He sensed another ki, impossibly small. It was bound to Vegeta's. And
his.

Bardock opened his eyes slowly, strange emotions searing his soul.
Rage, happiness, fear. His hair stood on end, flashing. The air
crackled with power.

Vegeta watched in silence as his mate burst into golden aura. An
angry super saiyan glared down at his king. Teal eyes demanded an
explanation.

"You lied to me!!"

The Ou was serene. "No. The child is but two weeks along. You were
away, and-"

"I was on a purge!!"

Low growl. "Ai, and well done on Bardwett. I wasn't certain until a
week ago."

Hands wrapped the royal neck. "I should break your skull for music.
Scum! You did this after I reconciled with Celipe!!"

The Ou raged now, crackling. His hair likewise stood on end, flashing
into white flame. He grabbed Bardock in turn.

"Ha! You marry a ragtail and love a king? Fool...I always get what I
want!"

"You tricked me before. Not this time!"

"Have you no other word, Bardock? I feel your heat even now...this
cub has a special power!"

"Raditz is strong! Already he rates in the top twelve percent...I've
had to pay to get his ki documents altered to avoid suspicion!"

Vegeta purred, despite their threatening deadlock. "Blood always
tells in the end. And this chibi...may have even more!"

"Impossible!" Bardock still held his chokehold.

Vegeta Ou roared, flashing sharp fangs. "Feel the ki, how it
moves...the dawn of a new era, Bardock. The era of super saiyan!!"

In stunned shock, Bardock released his hold, staring. It was true.
The ki, though tiny had a potent sting unlike anything he'd ever felt.

Teal eyes blinked, awed. "This baby..."

Vegetaan laughed madly now, dark eyes wild under flaming hair. "A
house like none other in the history of our people. You and I,
Bardock...our offspring! Fury and power, the likes of which our
ancestors only dreamed."

"But I can't be revealed, Vegeta-"

"A temporary setback. In time, love, our world will know and fear us."

Conflicting emotion took its toll, as golden spikes flickered and
went dark. Bardock could only massage the tight torso.

"You aren't even showing."

The Ou likewise powered down, pulling his mate closer. "Mocco
(moron). It's too soon for that! I'm only two weeks along."

The dark warrior managed a smile. "What are you going to do?""

A sigh. "I don't know. The situation at the palace is pivotal now, as
well you know. Inshei has her cronies-"

Dark eyes narrowed. "Be careful, Vegeta. She plots against you."

The king curled in their wild nest of vines. "I know. Still, I have
more resources. And her figurehead status hasn't changed in elite
circles."

"It burns her. She's hated my guts since Raditz was born."

"Ai, and this cub might be the best solution to neutralizing her
plans."

Bardock growled. "Explain."

"If this chibi is presented as royal heir, it nullifies her plot to
expose our...past."

"You won't use our cub as a bargaining tool, Vegeta!!" another roar.

The Ou clamped a hand on his mouth. "Fool!! The guards are back about
in the jungle. Mind your words!"

Bardock pulled the hand away. "I meant what I said" he hissed. "And
what's the plan once you begin showing?"

"I always have a plan in place. Didn't I have one for Raditz?"

Bardock snorted. "And the Queen? She isn't going to just disappear."

Vegeta smiled wickedly. "No? I'll find a way to insure
her...cooperation."

Evil grin. "Or else?"

"Did I say that? But enough of this. Come here!" the Ou snatched his
mate down.

Bardock felt warm, his pulse buzzing. He was
lightheaded. "Vegeta...kami take it, you're beautiful." he snuffed
along the bronzed neck.

Vegeta purred in bliss. "We'll always find a way."

Bardock lay across his mate, staring at the golden belly again. He
rubbed it.

"Hn, to think...our little one is somewhere...in there..."

The Ou flushed. "Stop rubbing me! I'm not a good luck charm."

The dark warrior smiled lazily, tail sweeping across his king. "Do
you need anything?"

Deep eyes smouldered. "Only you, Bardock. Everyone else can go to
hell."

****

They made love saiyan style several more times. Two glistening
figures dangled in a dark canopy of trees by their tails. Pattering
waterfall sounded nearby, giving fresh scent to the humid air.

Bardcock held his mate tightly, kissing long lashes.

"You're so beautiful-"

Vegeta growled softly in content. "You said that already...nearly a
hundred times!"

"I'll sing!"

The Ou silenced him with a sticky kiss. /No singing. The guards will
hear!/

/Then I'll bite you./

"Bardock!" Vegeta hissed as fangs pierced his neck. He mewed madly as
hot lips sucked him, leaving him lightheaded and dizzy.

The dark saiyan feasted on red richness, his love roaring wide open
through their bond. Overwhelmed, Vegeta lost his balance. The pair
abruptly toppled fifty feet into a grove of bushes.

They bounced to the forest floor, surrounded by high blooming
flowers. Not that Bardock cared. Still clinging to his love, he
softly lapped the neck wound he made. Vegeta shivered in pleasure.

"A...are you trying to kill me?"

Crooning purrs. "The cub...who will it look like?"

"How should I know?"

They were silent awhile, enjoying mutual heat and warmth. Soft
breezes carried blooms everywhere. Flower petals stuck to thick hair
and sticky skin.

Vegeta Ou stretched against his significant other, in a state of
absolute bliss. Dark eyes slitted as he eyed his mate in
appreciation. Bardock was a beauty by any saiyan standard, rich
features offset by sculpted muscle and glossy pelt.

"You're staring."

"Hai...I was thinking of the babies."

"Hn?"

"Someday Raditz must know his heritage, Bardock. And his sibling."

A sigh. "I know. But circumstances make it impossible now."

"It will happen. I resent having my cub raised as ragtail. It galls
me!"

"You gave him to me, Vegeta! Be grateful Celipe cooperated."

Vegeta grunted, his tail lashing in agitation. "He's in the top
twelve percent ki you say?"

Bardock smiled with pride. "Ai, the brat fights all the time...I had
to drag him from leyschool by the scruff of his neck. Not easy with
all that hair!"

"Amazing for a cub so young."

Bardock purred. "I told you. He's already projected for super elite,
which is why I've had to take so many precautions."

Vegeta stared hard. "Are the raters to be trusted?"

Sharp smile. "With their lives."

Savage grin. "Well said."

Bardock rolled on his back, staring skyward at shaded trees. "I worry
about the boy sometimes."

Dark eyes were keen on him. "Why, Bardock? He's potent and well
formed...the pride of his heritage."

"OUR heritage, Vegetaan. You know where I'm going with this."

"Again with that?! I tell you, there's no possibility of-"

"Can we be certain? And what about this chibi you carry?"

A smug purr. "Super saiyan. Ai, I feel it in my bones."

Bardock thought a minute. "The possibilities...fate amazes me,
Vegeta. The Cooler empire is on the rise in this galactic sector...do
you follow me here?"

The Ou nodded, grim. "Ai, a convergence of power. It's projected that
in another three decades their sphere of influence will reach our
solar system directly."

"Our people have served Frieza's family for years, but conflict is
inevitable."

Vegeta closed his eyes briefly. "Saiyans aren't servants, and he
never could control our people. We're the primary threat to his rule,
Bardock. Three decades..."

The dark one glowered. "Three decades." he patted his mate's
belly. "Time enough!"

The saiyans embraced in their love nest, snarling in affirmation and
promise.
