Dragon Ball/Z/GT Fan Fiction ❯ Dark Temptation ❯ Chapter One ( Chapter 1 )

This is my first fanfiction. I decided to write it after reading the “Dark” series by Christine Feehan. Many of the ideas portrayed here are the same. I do not own the characters of DBZ. This is merely a FANfiction. I do own the character Lilith. Anyone else I create as the story goes along you can feel free to use! This is an AU-obviously.

 

He felt it deep inside him. They all did. The vast darkness, spreading like a disease, infecting each organ, each tissue, and each cell. It was trying to consume them. Each male of his race. He could not stop it. How can he stop something that he himself is also subject to? How can he find his other half when so many before him have fallen because they too failed? He needed her, his other half. As prince to his people, he should have found her long ago. But he has been alive for nearly eight centuries and still nothing. Was there no hope for the Saiyan race? Were they all to fall victim to the darkness that was within them, while their female counterparts slowly died out? The strongest race in the universe is having to confront an enemy they have no weapons to fight against: Defeat.

Vegeta sighed. He knew that others felt as he did. But with so few females on the planet, it was a not-so-far-off threat. He had not found his life-mate among his people. Was she not born yet? How was he supposed to face the next few decades? He felt the darkness within him so close to the surface. It seemed only his values and duty to his people that kept him from turning as so many others had.

Vegeta knew the penalty of turning. To embrace the darkness and leave the light was to sentence yourself to an eternity without a soul, and to be hunted by those like him. Vegeta was growing weary. How many past friends had he killed? How many had he had to track down over these last few centuries? He knew the path was difficult to not turn. Saiyan males lost their ability to see in color around 80 years old, nearly still a fledging. The loss of emotions took place about at two centuries. His life had become bleak. With every kill he had to make, the closer to darkness he became. What irony faced his people. That it was the hunters duty to protect all others from the Saiyans that turned, yet with each kill the hunter was walking down the same path.

Vegeta was an ancient. He had incredible powers, but he must find a way to save his race. The males must find a lifemate, but females were not giving birth to very many other females, and the children were dying still young. His father before him had sent out ship to several planets trying to find a way. Goku, his closest friend, had brought back a human from the planet Gaia. Her name was ChiChi and he was able to convert her and bond with her.

Lifemates are predestined. Fate leads the two together. With the possibility that there might be lifemates for his people on this new planet, Vegeta had ordered an immediate mission. The journey was long. He could only hope that fate guides his lifemate to him before it is too late. Those that turn, turn vampire. They kill their victims. Saiyans must consume blood, but will never kill while feeding. The rouge that turn kill because it is the only glimmer of emotion that they can experience.

Vegeta turned away from his brooding as he felt Goku enter the bridge of the ship.

“Sire,” he said formally, “we are close to the planet, only thirty minutes away. Should I begin to mask the ship?”

“Yes,” Vegeta began, “let us approach silently as the shadow that creeps on our own minds.”
