Chapter 4
Goku looked all around, the debris of the city surrounded the area, the sounds of tired broken down men scuffling around the area was almost deafening with sorrow; his hearing was sharp, sharp enough to hear the men surrounding him speak about him in hushed whispers, a saviour they called him, a good omen. He was never one to sit back and allow men to suffer, before he was even asked he already knew he would help them, he would help him; Vegeta.
That was another thing, this was a different version of the Vegeta he knew so well, this one seemed more vulnerable to him, he could see it in the man’s demeanour and body language, this Vegeta was wounded badly from the inside, and he had no clue on how to approach him. Another familiar face popped up, Nappa, and by the looks of him he was just hanging on as well, no doubts Vegeta being his rock. Nappa never came across being a solitary survivor to him, he has strength but lack the intelligence and patience to survive and Vegeta had that ability to keep the mammoth in line. He wondered if Raditz was around as well.
Goku made his way around searching, analyzing, trying to understand exactly what was going on here and why were they using guns? Didn’t they have energy?
“Hey! Goku, Kakarot whatever your name is, get over here, if you’re coming with us then you will do as everyone else does!” Goku whipped his head hearing Vegeta’s deep raspy voice call his name, and he couldn’t help but to giggle when he used his Earth given name, it sounded so strange and funny coming from Vegeta, he was so use to him saying Kakarot. “Gather the supplies, and bring it back to the base. Nappa!”
Nappa bowed and I was confused when Vegeta looked hurt by the gesture, as if he was unworthy… this is strange indeed. “Yes Prince Vegeta?”
Vegeta grunted. “Take him under your wing for the rest of the day and night, fill him in on everything that is happening, and… watch out for him, he is a tad bit strange.” Goku’s mouth dropped, he couldn’t believe just said that in front of him, usually such outwardly spoken concerns was done in private, not in front of the one in question.
“I’m right here you know!” Goku half pouted and grunted.
“Yes… yes you are now are you.” Vegeta tilted his head; his dark visor reflected his surroundings. “I will take my leave now with Gozen and met with the others to plan out our supplies. Report back to me in the morning, I wish to be alone tonight and rest.”
“Of course Prince.” Nappa bowed once again, listening to the tapping sound of Vegeta’s boots walking away. Nappa stood tall looking down at the man below him, sizing him up, gauging him, middle aged, hardly any scarring, strange clothing unfit for war, and a open face. This man wasn’t bred for war, yet rumour has it he is of Saiyan blood. “Well just you an me eh, what’s your name, family ties and rank?”
Goku scratched his head, doing his best to remember the information Vegeta of his time had told him. “Kakarot, third class, and I believe my father’s name is Bardock?”
Nappa snorted humourlessly. “Bardock eh, you must be Raditz’s older brother.”
“Nope Raditz’s younger brother.” Goku beamed.
“Funny you look older.” Nappa snorted. “How old are you?”
“I am 56.”
“Raditz is 39.” Nappa raised a brow. “So tell me, how are you the younger when you’re my age?”
“Well in my time I am the younger.” Goku frowned, well now he knew he was in a different dimension and time line all together; what a mess.
“You must have hit your head harder then you think Kakarot. Well no time to stand around and figure shit out, let’s get this shit loaded and get outta’ here before the scouts come.” Nappa placed a heavy hand on Goku’s shoulder lightly pushing the man forward.
~~~ At the base ~~~
Vegeta leaned back in his chair half listening to the generals speak around him, nothing peaked his interest, and nothing he could add; Tendmar pretty much covered over everything. It was at the beginning of the meeting did they inquired him about the ‘man who fell out of the sky’, there wasn’t much to tell really, just a Saiyan that fell and was pretty much an unknown to them all, he would gather more information at a later time, and the topic was dropped.
Before he knew it the majority of the generals left, leaving Tendmar and Aira, he growled, knowing what all this was turning into. “Shut it before you start!”
“Vegeta think rationally please, we only wish to know you’re status.” Tendmar explained in his dead tone of voice. While Aira was far more emotional with her speech.
“We only want to make sure you’re okay Vegeta, I know you’ve been upping your dosage, are you sure it’s healthy?” Aira moved closer, and Vegeta snarled all the more.
“We fear it may affect you’re thinking and thus make you unfit to be on the council.” Tendmar leaned back clasping his elongated fingers together.
Vegeta twitched, his hand started to shake. “Remove me? Unfit for this? By the god’s Tendmar!” Vegeta stood slamming his palms upon the table. “We are just struggling to survive! This whole damn thing is a fucking lost cause and you both know it! Unfit for council! Get off whatever dream ship your on Tendmar, the both of you! The council, yeah we are just the big hot shots huh, we make all the rules and final plans, and guess what for fucking nothing! How much longer before we are all wiped out, and… turned?” Vegeta shuddered.
“You’re emotional outburst is normal and voided. I will not accept it has the effect of you’re… “medication”… but I will ask you think Vegeta, if we do win, who will be the ones to rebuild society? Us, that is who and we will need a powerful intelligent leader such as yourself. Myself and Aira are the only ones who give a damn about you enough to blind ourselves from the truth, and try to help you. All we ask is for you to down the dosage intake, and keep a clear head.” Tendmar never removed his eyes from the prince and was relieved when Vegeta relaxed and slumped back into his seat.
Aira moved in closer her red fiery hair pooled around Vegeta’s shoulder. “Look it big tough Saiyan we will be here to talk if you need us, and I know Nappa would be there as well, he may not be able to verbally comprehend guidance for you like us, but I know he will listen. As for Raditz, he is a lost cause, don’t blame yourself.”
Vegeta bitten the inside of his cheek, he wanted to smack them both upside the head, but silence seemed the best partner. He shrugged off her gentle grey hands and stood. “It has been a long day, I’m going to bed.” He walked out without a second glance leaving Tendmar and Aira behind in the darken room.
~~~ On base ~~~
Goku walked behind Nappa through a maze, men sitting on the floors, dingy, reminding him of old post apocalypse movies where humans are scavengers living in disgusting holes. Only this is a array of species of all shapes and sizes, not many could past as human but some were humanoid like. “So what happened here?”
Nappa grunted. “Eight years, seven months, and 16 days ago happened. Juss’ like the big bang, everything went to shit, colonies, galaxies, and stations just up an gone becomin’ nuttin’ more then ghost towns. We were wit a fleet in the deep of the shit storm tryin’ to figure out what happened. We were attacked, nearly wiped out, many of us captured, taken to different levels of an unknown ship. They started takin’ the grunts and I didn’t see them afterwards, until recently. We killed them today…” Nappa paused, turning to Goku. “They were warped, changed, brainwashed, however you like to call it.” He let out a heavy sigh. “Some of em was my drinking partners, when we worked under Frezia.”
“Frezia?” Goku nodded his head, he remembered the white tyrant. “What happened to him? Is he the one doing this?”
Nappa tossed his head letting out a bellowing laugh. “Hardly; Frezia was killed in an explosion. Good thing too, the freak.” Nappa shrugged. “Other than that, we fought, and continue to fight, we fight to survive.” Nappa’s voice began to raise, his fist clenched and raised high; the men surrounding lifted their heads, and listened. “We fight to win!”
Goku felt a cold chill race through him and Goosebumps followed as the beaten men stood, finding courage and returned the answering call of hope. “FIGHT TO WIN!” A hundred stood renewed and strong, and Goku could see now why Nappa was a general, short and to the point giving all others around the needed boost, and he felt it, felt the need to fight, the need to answer that call. Goku smirked. “Fight to win.”
Nappa gave a curt nod. “I won’t lie, it looks grim. Especially since we were robbed of our power, but we find other means.”
Goku hadn’t bothered to go further in that statement, instead he continued his questioning. “Who is the enemy?”
Nappa shoulders dropped. “It’s the universe against what you see here. We still have no idea who the ‘brain’ is, that damn thing is damn good at hiding like a coward. We will find out, no doubt and it will be Prince Vegeta that’ll take it down, I know it.”
Goku nodded, fighting an enemy no one knew would be difficult. Then the Prince, he had questions about Vegeta he needed to know. “Speaking about the Prince, why does he wear that funny looking thing over his eyes? Is it like a scouter?” Goku followed as Nappa started to continue to walk forward.
Nappa tilted his head. “It’s a good you asked me, if you asked him yourself he just might’ve shot you in your foot.” Nappa chuckled. “It was Frezia that did it to him, some fucked up experiment to make Vegeta’s vision more nocturnal and heat based. There was something else done but we don’t know.”
“So, he wears it all the time?” Goku raised a brow.
Nappa grunted. “He pretty much has to, any bright light hurts his pupils, well burns them more-less. In dark spaces he retracts the visor to let his eyes breath and to see, he told me once he could see the outline of everything around him, to the very heart, blue meant dead, reddish yellow was still alive. I guess it made him a more efficient killer, he could scan a valley and know exactly who was wounded and causalities. During the day when the visor is on he said it was pretty much no different, he could see as he always had, only just several shades darker. I only wish I knew what else Frezia had done to the Prince.”
“How do you know if he did?”
“Frezia said so, something along the lines of, keeping him in check encase…” Nappa trailed off, shaking his head. “Never mind, the rest is none of your concern, it is the past, and I like to leave it buried there.” Nappa grunted stopping at a door. “Well this is it for me.” He lifted a heavy hand and banged on the door. “Raditz got a surprise here for ya! Get your sorry hide outta the bed!”
Goku froze, Raditz, he really was going to meet his older brother again; uncertainty and excitement filled him, how would Raditz react to seeing him again?
~~~ Vegeta ~~~
Fucking sticking their noses where it doesn’t belong! Vegeta slammed his door closed, flicking the side of his dark visor to close the protective shield; he lifted a hand and rubbed his eyes. He sat on his cot, leaned forward letting his hand dropped down to hang over his knees, he was tired, more so then recently, he was wearing down; his spirit chipping away in ounces with each passing hour.
Reaching in his jacket he pulled out the pill case, staring at it, thinking of nothing, his mind was blank; he flipped it over and over watching the metallic sliver case flash. He snarled: Fuck it. Popping it open, he took several in his hand smacking it to his lips he swallowed harshly. He sighed, pleased by the action alone, shrugging off his leather jacket and kicking off his boots, he laid back against the mattress, his arms folded under his head he stared at nothing at all, just letting him get lost in the feeling.
He flinched when he thought of the new strange Saiyan, his story just seemed so fucked up, but then again this whole mess was as well; he’ll talk and find out more of this man in the morning, right now he was finding peace. A peace he didn’t deserve. Failure…
