:: Telepathy ::

 

oOoOoOo

 

Bubbles floated to the surface inside his wet prison. He couldn't remember what happened. He opened his eyes to a blue-green haze of recognizable faces but his world went dark again.

 

It must have been a strange dream. One minute he was fighting off that psycho Turlis then, then what? Once again he opened his eyes to the familiar warmth of his mate. He knew that he was safe but something felt terribly wrong.

 

“Kay,” Vegeta called out in a weak voice.

 

A startled gasped let him know that his partner was not expecting him to wake-up anytime soon.

 

“Geta, how are you feeling?”

 

“Tired.”

 

Vegeta looked into his mate's soft dark eyes but noticed that there was no light behind those windows only sadness.

 

“Wh-what happened?”

 

Goku sat-up in bed, the sheets pooled around his waist. After Bulma gave Vegeta the okay to leave the med-lab, Goku immediately brought him back to his room.

 

“Why don't you get some more rest and we'll talk after you wake-up okay.” Goku's voice was soft.

 

“Where is Turlis?”

 

“Don't worry about him koi. I want you to get some rest now,” Goku urged again.

 

Vegeta finally complied. He was just too tired to insist on what was going on and closed his eyes and promptly dosed off. The medication that Bulma gave him was enough to knock out an elephant.

 

The tall Saiyan eased out of bed and got dressed. Before he left the room he instructed to the guards outside that no one was allowed in the prince's room without proper authorization, and from there Goku went straight to the communications room.

 

oOoOoOo

 

Inside, Raditz was already going over possible leads as to where the prisoner could have fled too. He motioned for Goku to join him.

 

“How is Vegeta?” He asked.

 

“He's a little disoriented and tired but Bulma said that's was to be expected.”

 

“Did you tell him?”

 

“No. He needs to recover from the attack first. I just can't lay something like this on him and expect him to be alright.” Goku felt as if his heart was about to burst.

 

“How about you brother? How are you holding up?” Raditz inquired.

 

“Fine. I just wish that I gotten there quicker before anything had happened.”

 

“Don't beat yourself up. Turlis wanted your mate and was willing to anything to get him. This is not your fault.”

 

Goku looked down at his older brother. He seemed to loom over him. “Yes, this is my fault and I will never forgive myself for what has happened to him.”

 

The younger Saiyan marched out of the room leaving the others staring after him. Raditz looked around at the officers and growled.

 

“Show's over everyone get back to work!” He yelled making them jump back to their task.

 

Goku walked to the science lab seeking out his best friend. His thoughts went back to the scene that nearly ripped him apart.

 

oOo Flashback oOo

 

In just a day or two the Z fighters would arrive at New Vegetasei and just in time before the full moon. Goku had just stepped out of the shower and was dressing when he received a distress call from Vegeta.

 

::KAKAROTT!!:: He mentally screamed for his mate.

 

The Earth raised Saiyan dropped to the floor and the air was being pushed out of his lungs. He quickly threw on the rest of his orange gi uniform and IT to his mate. He reappeared in a matter of seconds to find that a larger male was assaulting his mate and that's when he lost all control.

 

Goku reached down and hauled the offensive male off his mate. “AAARRGGGH!!! I'M GOING TO KILL YOU, YOU BASTARD!!!”

 

He spun around and decked him in the jaw, sending him across the opened room. Goku was about to advance on the other male when he felt Vegeta's ki plummet. He rushed to his side but the prince had already passed out.

 

The scent of blood and semen clouded his senses plus there was another scent that he didn't recognize. Goku looked back at the other male and seeing that he was unconscious Goku lifted Vegeta and left the room. He felt Bulma's ki next door and went there. He kicked down the door. Immediately, his friend and some unfamiliar faces surrounded him.

 

“OMG! Goku! What happened?!” Bulma yelled.

 

“He was being attack by someone.”

 

“Hurry! Let's get him to the med-lab,” Raditz instructed.

 

“Here you take him. I got some unfinished business with that creep who did this to him,” Goku said and shifted his precious burden over to him.

 

Back inside Vegeta's room, there was no trace of the attacker. “Fuck!” Goku was mad. That guy got away, but he was going to hunt him down for hurting his mate. Even if that meant going to the Other World to find him, that bastard was going to pay.

 

The doctors moved about the emergency room likes ants. They had ushered Goku and Zarbon to wait outside, except Bulma, until they had the prince in stable condition.

 

Three hours later Bulma exited surgery. She went and sat beside her long time friend. Obsidian orbs looked hopeful into bright sky blues.

 

“How is he, Bulma?”

 

“Well, we managed to stop the bleeding and repair the rips to his anal area. He's in the tank now.” Bulma paused taking a deep breath.

 

“And the baby?”

 

She looked away but he caught sight of the water pooling in her eyes. Finally, after a few moments she turned back to him. “I'm sorry Goku, but apparently he must have received a blow to his stomach in his fight with Turlis and the amniotic sac ruptured. The baby suffocated.”

 

The blue haired genius couldn't continue. She knew how much this baby meant to Goku and to Vegeta. Oh, Kami, why did this had to happened. Vegeta was beginning to enjoy life with Goku plus he was reunited with his daughter with a baby on the way. Nothing seems to go right for once dark Saiyan prince.

 

Goku stood up and paced the floor. How was he going to tell his mate that he lost the baby, their baby. And not mention that that asshole who had put him in the emergency ward got away.

 

The double doors of the waiting room opened. Raditz entered followed by a little girl dressed in blue spandex went straight to Bulma and hugged her then she turned her gaze to Goku.

 

“You're the one,” she said to him.

 

“I'm sorry but you must-” For the first time he stared at her. The resemblance was uncanny. “You're Vegeta's daughter.”

 

The girl bobbed her head up and down and added. “I'm Zarra, daughter of Prince Vegeta and Zarbon, first princess of Vegetasei, and you must be my Otousan's mate.”

 

She was sharp, Goku had to give her credit on that. “Hai. My name is Goku. Pleased to meet you.”

 

“Where's my Otousan? Uncle Raditz told me that he had an accident.”

 

Goku didn't know what to tell her. He turned to Bulma for help.

 

“We can't see him yet, sweetie. Let's wait until he's back in his room then you can talk with him once he wakes-up okay.” Bulma cut in. Goku was about to cry as she quickly gave the girl an answer.

 

Zarra went over to Zarbon and took hold of his hand. “Father?”

 

The reptilian was looking lost. His ex-lover was fighting for his life and now they didn't know where that brute Turlis took off too, but one thing was for sure, he was still on the planet.

 

oOo End Flashback oOo

 

Goku opened the door to the lab and found Bulma hunched over several slides. She was in her element and Goku smile a little.

 

“Bulma?”

 

“Hey, Goku. You didn't get much sleep did you?” She asked as she noted the dark circles under his beautiful dark eyes..

 

He shook his head.

 

“How are you suppose to catch that jerk if you're not getting any rest.” Bulma was about to go off on him but she stopped herself.

 

“I know but-”

 

“You're worried about him. We all are, but you can't help him if you're not at your 100 percent Goku. Well, at anyway rate I'm glad that you stopped by. I've been going over some of Vegeta's test results and everything looks good. He should be up and about within a day or two. Any luck on finding Turlis.”

 

“No, but I'm guessing that he's going to try and finish what he started. Anyway, I better get back to Vegeta that medication you gave him should be wearing off right about now.” Goku gave her hug and left.

 

oOoOoOo

 

The Saiyan prince awoke to the bright afternoon sun seeping in through his picture window. Someone left the curtains drawn back. He felt groggy and exhausted. His internal clock was letting him know that a couple of days had passed by, but something was missing. He sat-up in bed and immediately regretted that action. His stomach ached.

 

The baby!

 

He placed his hand over his tummy and realize that it was no longer round and hard, but flat and a little soft. He rushed to the bathroom and lifted his shirt and saw the stitches of where he had a cesarean.

 

“NO!” He cried out.

 

Just then Goku enter the bathroom when he heard Vegeta yell. Vegeta felt his presence in the room the minute that he walked in through the door.

 

“Geta.”

 

“Tell me that fucking truth, Kakarott, and I want it now!” Vegeta roared unable to keep his emotions in check.

 

The younger Saiyan gather his mate in his arms but Vegeta was struggling. He didn't want to be held he wanted to know what happened. After some time he gave up and gave into Goku's soothing motions that was calming him down. The couple dropped to floor of the huge bathroom.

 

He rather face Frieza than do what he's about to do. “You had some bleeding that required surgery. Bulma said that all of your tests were normal and you should be able to get around in a few days.”

 

Tears swelled up in Vegeta's eyes. He knew what was about to come. “And the baby?”

 

“Bulma said that you must have received a blow to your stomach when you were fighting Turlis. You uh we. Oh, Kami, I'm sorry Geta but you lost the baby,” Goku choked out.

 

No.no.no.no. This was not what he wanted to hear. No words could describe how he felt or the anger that was growing. Turlis that bastard got what he wanted he made the prince loose the life that he was carrying.

 

“Where is Turlis?”

 

“Unfortunately, he got away when I took to you Bulma,” Goku explained.

 

“How long do I have to stay in this blasted room?”

 

“You can leave the day after tomorrow. Bulma said that you could walk round to get your strength back but nothing else. Why do you ask?”

 

“I'm going to find that bastard and I'm going to make him wish that he never set his hands on me,” Vegeta threaten.

 

Goku wasn't about to argue with him; he wanted the same thing. A knock at their bedroom door brought them back from dealing with their grief.

 

“I'm sorry to bother you Sir but the counsel has called a meeting,” the messenger said.

 

“For what?” Goku asked.

 

“It seems that they want the prince to take on a mate before they have the coronation for him to become king. Commander Raditz is there now trying to convince them that he has one but they are refusing to believe that. Apparently, Master Turlis had tricked them into believing that he's the prince's mate,” the messenger concluded.

 

“Great! Tell my brother that I will be that shortly.”

 

“Very well, Sir.”

 

None of the palace guards knew that Goku was the prince's true mate. They only knew that he help saved the prince from being attacked.

 

“Geta, I gotta go. There's a problem and I need to resolve it as quick as possible before it gets nasty,” Goku said.

 

“I'm going with you.”

 

“No. I don't want you walking around.”

 

“I'm not some handicapped person Kakarott. This is my kingdom and those old farts out there are trying to decide who I should be mated too when I already have a mate. I will not allow Turlis' lies deceive my people any longer. You go ahead and I will be there after I make myself a little more presentable,” Vegeta said.

 

“Okay, but once we're finish I want you back in bed, understand.” Goku leaned in and gave him a kiss.

 

“Wait before you leave.”

 

Vegeta looked through his things. He hoped that it was still there. His father must have known that Frieza was going to destroy Vegetasei and left Turlis in charge of moving everything and relocation his people. Even the wealth of the Vegetasei Empire was here. Vegeta was surprise that it hadn't been depleted but one could not rule without the financial backing of one's power.

 

In his drawer he found what he had been searching for. He walked over to Goku.

 

“My Father gave me this before I went with Frieza. This symbolizes that you belong to the Royal House of Vegetasei, but it also signifies that you are my mate. Once I'm crowned king you will be classed as an Elite,” the prince explained.

 

“I don't know what to say.” This was something totally unexpected.

 

“Don't say anything Kakarott and besides you only have to wear it when we attend formal functions and meetings.”

 

“I love you, Geta.”

 

For the first time since they've been mated Vegeta swallowed his pride to tell his mate how he truly felt. “And I love you too.”

 

Vegeta reached up and cupped Goku's face and kissed him tenderly on the lips.

 

oOoOoOo

 

The tall warrior entered the conference hall all eyes were locked on him. Whispers went about the room. They couldn't believe how much he and Turlis looked like one another. The head elder stood.

 

The older Saiyan was old. Gray hairs began to show through his black locks. Wrinkles were already forming around tired looking black eyes. Most of them had that look.

 

“I'm sorry but this is a closed meeting,” he said.

 

“I'm here on behave of My Prince. What you are deciding here is wrong. The prince has a mate” Goku began but was interrupted before he could finish his argument.

 

“We heard the same excuse from Commander Raditz and we will tell you what we've told him. We saw the claiming mark on Prince Vegeta's neck. Now, seeing that the prince have no other suitors other than Turlis the counsel have decided that Turlis must be pardon from any and all actions against the crown.”

 

What?! They must be mad. They had to be smoking something to come to a decision like that.

 

“I'm sorry to say, but what Turlis has done to My Prince is inexcusable. Not only did he force himself upon the prince but also made him lose the child that he was carrying.”

 

A gush of whispers sweep through the hall once again. The counsel was not informed of this there must be some mistake.

 

“How do you now that the prince was with child?” Another elder asked.

 

“Because the child was mine.”

 

Oh, good grief. Most of the counsel members were on Turlis' bankroll and if this turned out to be true then they would have no other choice but to reverse their decision or worse face the prince and he had a temper just like his father.

 

“Impossible!!! How could a third-class Saiyan warrior such as yourself be mated to the prince when he bares the mark of another.”

 

The doors opened again and this time it was Bulma followed by Zarra. The little girl took a seat away from everyone but was still able to hear the proceedings.

 

“You human have no right to be here!” The head elder spat.

 

“Get a life. I'm Vegeta's personal physician since he had been living on Earth and he is still under my care. I'm here to show proof that the prince was indeed with child at the time of his assault,” Bulma said with pride.

 

Before the old man had a chance to recover from Bulma's outburst the doors opened again. This time in stepped the topic of their discussion.

 

“I hope that I'm not disturbing you gentlemen,” the prince said through his famous trademark smirk. He was dressed in his formal attire.

 

“No, Your Highness.” The elders hated that look it reminded them of the late King Vegeta the only thing that was missing was the goatee.

 

“Why wasn't I informed of this meeting?” Goku saw the glint in his eyes. Vegeta was out for blood.

 

“We were told that you were recovering.”

 

“Really, please continue,” Vegeta said a he took a seat at the head of the table.

 

“We uh was just informing this third-class soldier of our decision,” the head elder was beginning to sweat now he was under fire from the prince.

 

“Go on. I'm listening.”

 

“The claiming mark on your person clearly states that Turlis is your mate and that all charges against him should be dropped.”

 

Vegeta growled that was something that he didn't want to hear.

 

“Were you old men not informed that I had a mate.” Vegeta looked at every single one of them.

 

“But Your Highness since you have been here Turlis was the only one-”

 

“SILENCE!!!” Vegeta's voice boomed throughout the hall; he was tired of all the bullshit. “Kakarott, show them please.”

 

In one fluid motion Goku pulled out the beautiful round opal/turquoise pendant that Vegeta gave him just moments before. It was much smaller than the one that the prince was wearing but everyone knew what that meant.

 

“I've been mated to Kakarott for almost two years on the planet Earth. Turlis only wanted to seize control of my throne and in the process made me lose my child, Kakarott's child. Now, if I were any of you I suggest that you get your facts straight and figure out where your loyalties lay-”

 

Vegeta sat up then he released an energy sphere that he had been building since he sat down and threw it at the head elder. “Because you all might find yourself between a hard place and me.”

 

The rest of the elders just stared at the pile of ashes. Their was nothing else that they could do the prince just reveal the mystery behind his true mate.

 

oOoOoOo

 

Two weeks later

 

There still was no sign or even a hint as to where Turlis disappeared and it was only a few days away from the crowing ceremony. The other Z fighters arrived shortly after the attack and were informed as to what had happened. They couldn't believe that someone was desperate to commit an act so vile.

 

Vegeta had been training non-stop and was back in top form in no time, but Goku knew that he was anything but all right. He lost their baby and was rape for the second time in his life. He would draw away from Goku's touches if they became too involved. The younger Saiyan didn't push and just let his mate have his way.

 

Goku knew that it was from what Turlis did and he didn't know how to help Vegeta through this. He wondered if he could help him at all. Sometimes during the middle of the night Vegeta would wake-up drenched in sweat breathing heavy from a nightmare, no doubt from when he was attacked.

 

Goku tried comforting him but Vegeta just merely pushed him away saying that it was nothing to worry about, and on top of everything else Vegeta put up mental barriers. He blocked Goku and only communicated with him when they needed to attend a meeting.

 

This was causing a serious strain on their relationship. Something had to be done.

 

oOo TBC oOo

 

A/N: I'm sorry, please don't kill me but I had to do it. What a complete turn of events? What do you think that Goku is planning now since Vegeta is giving him the cold shoulder? What the hell happened to that jerk Turlis? Tell me your thoughts and any comments that you may have about what's going-on. I love hearing from you ^_~
