Vegeta-sei and Earth are actually two countries on one
planet. Vegeta has been reinstated as
the King of Vegeta-sei. His son, the
crowned Prince Trunks, and his daughter, Princess Bura live with him at the
palace along with Queen Bulma, from Earth.
Goku Son, Chi Chi, Goten, Pan, Gohan, and Videl, all very close friends
with the Royal family, live in Earth.
At one time, the prince and princess went to a boarding school in Earth
with Pan and Goten, very good friends, until King Vegeta decided to prevent the
children from too much contact with each other and brought his children back to
Vegeta-sei. Currently, Trunks is
twenty, Bra is eighteen, Pan is eighteen, and Goten is nineteen.
The girl with the aqua-blue hair shivered lightly at
the draft in the basement of the factory.
"Where is he?" she muttered impatiently to the cold wooden walls of the
small office, "He knows my family will suspect if I'm back at home late…" Just
then, the door behind the eighteen-year-old swung smoothly open with a whoosh
of air. The girl, not expecting the
noise, shrieked a short cry while twisting around to see the intruder, then
relaxed at the sight of the familiar man.
"Bra-chan,
darling, we meet again. I'm glad that
the last few jobs have been successful, oh saiyan princess." The man purred in
a mellifluous voice. Behind the honeyed
words, there was a hint of antipathy and malice that made Bra shrink a
little. There was something about the man,
as kind as he was to her, that made her scared and wonder why she had gotten
into business with him. But it's
fun, adventurous, a little voice inside her replied smoothly, conquering
all her fears, and he'd never hurt you.
Besides, you get to break away from being Daddy's girl, a little
angel. You get to be wild, free, and
get back at him for things he's done to you.
"Finally. I've been waiting for…" she glanced down at
her diamond-encrusted watch bracelet, "five minutes. And you're always a stickler for time." Not letting the man reply, she continued in a snappy, dominating
tone, completely contrary to the shaky mass of jello she felt like inside, "How
did you like the results of the mission so far, hun? Five out of twenty seals in three days. You would have never done it without me."
The man
stepped into the direct light, out from the shadows on the wall. He had a strong, muscular build, a very good
build. He stood five feet taller than
the princess, muscles standing out as the folds of black cloths that enclosed
his body pressed against his skin. The
way that he walked and his aura projected power, control, and anarchy. The dim light that shone down on him
highlighted his face, which was handsome indeed. His lips curved up at one end, giving him a smirk that could
rival King Vegeta's. Curiously, unlike
any other Saiyan, he had silver eyes that looked almost white depending on how
the light reflected on him. His hair,
an almost blinding white, was ruggedly tied back, with a few strands falling
around his face. Dressed in a black
silk blouse with loose sleeves, cinched tight to his body by special night-hued
Saiyan armor, with frosty black satin pants that fell straight down, the man
looked as dark as one could get.
Attached to the shoulders of the armor by two silver-sapphire studs (the
only color in his whole ensemble), was a heavy dark cape of a fine material,
completing the look of shadows and suffocating night that hung around the
man. He seemed to possess a mystery and
malevolence, and this was especially clear as he looked down at Bra, eyes
veiled to prevent her from seeing into him.
"Wonderful
job, kitten. I never knew you could be
so coy." He answered, preventing any hint of annoyance from coming into his
voice, "And the seals and rings you have been able to steal from all those
'mighty' and 'intelligent' officials-marvelous!" He brushed back some hair from Bra's face seductively. Yes, he knew how to play this little pet
well. "So, my little fox, I have
another mission for you. The sixth
seal, love. It belongs to the official
in Rei. Let's see how fast you can
steal this one this time."
"Are you
saying I can't do it?" she barked, stepping closer to him. Then, she repulsed back a few steps, the
thick obscurity around the man too strong, "I mean, give me the mission and it
will be done."
"That's my
lady. Good girl, keep this up and I'll
reward you some more. This is fun for
you is it not? My dark angel, that's
what you are." The man stepped towards her, pulled her into his strong arms,
and passionately kissed her. The
emotions he awoke in her were raging all around her like a storm as he finished
the kissed. Feelings flew around her,
wild, tormenting, and savage. Part of
her wanted to shirk away, never have anything to do with him, and the other
part wanted more.
The man
smirked to himself strangely, making sure that she couldn't see it, and with a
flash of smoke, produced a thick black file.
"Remember, princess, to read everything carefully. Report to here as soon as you get the seal
and ring. If you show that file to
someone else, the file will self-destruct; remember. And it will take you with it."
He added. Bra shrunk back at the
threat. The man realized his mistake
and quickly added, "But you would never do that would you, lovely flower, would
you?" Bra shook her head in the
negative, and with one more wild kiss from him, forgot about that eerie
blackness around him and succumbed to his power. "Alright, you'd better get going. Your brother will be worried, and you can't get caught, can you?
Good night, fair princess." And he
whisked right back through the door and disappeared.
Bra sat
back down, wondering why her body felt so shaky when she felt so good. She squeezed the packet she was given. "Next stop, Rei." She smiled a shady smile
to herself. Bra lifted herself up, and
breezed out the door. When she went out
the main door, she carelessly popped a piece of gum in her mouth, dropped the
wrapper on the pavement below, and swiftly entered the silver Lexus that was
patiently waiting for her.
The man,
hidden from her view in the shadows of the night, smirked to himself
again. As he watched the departing car,
he whispered into the howling air of the night, "Soon, princess. Soon, Vegeta. Soon."
As he swept
back into the building of pure darkness, he stopped at the wrapper Bra had
thrown on the floor. "Too bad you never
gave any of your instincts to your beloved daughter. Too bad for you Vegeta."
And the wrapper burst into flames as he exited the cold night air.
