Justice

********* Lord Cumba *********

Excellent, my cousin has informed me almost an hour ago that they were but

six hours away from landing. All was going smoothly I had already sent for

the ones who would carry out the execution of the "former" queen once

sentence has been passed by the king, my cousin for the treason she plotted

not to mention her attempted murder of her own son. The very best part of

course was that Arteesia was COMPLETELY unaware of this. I had already

informed (A/N:said with dripping sarcasm)"her majesty" that her mate would

arrive home soon with a "surprise" just for her. I smiled thinking how

excited I was to at last see you younger cousin. Vegeta had told me he

looked very much like he when he was a brat, save that his hair tone was

his dams. How many memories seeing that brat would invoke of mine and

Vegeta's past when we were younger. I was also excited about seeing our new

queen and mate to my cousin. He had shown me her image he gleaned from his

son once before while he was in telepathic contact. Though now he informed

me she looked more dragon than human. Vegeta never ceased to amaze me with

the power of his mind. He could do more than telepathy but he had gone

through extreme training and discipline not to accidentally use those

capabilities as he had as a young brat. This was well since I could only

imagine how it's strength had increased while he concentrated his efforts

in locating his son. I had to admit at first I felt his attempts were

pointless. Till that morning he had told me he was certain he had touched

his son's mind. I was never happier to learn my younger cousin lived. I was

happier still for my cousin, especially since he had had so many

disappointments and betrayals all through out his life. Now all his efforts

have yielded what he wanted most a devoted, caring mate and his son. If I

knew him though he would have more than the one brat. Few besides myself

and my mate Lehree knew how deeply he loved brats and wished to have many.

He'd make the excuse that he should be generous with his blood and have

more offspring to mate and strengthen yet other houses blood lines. Hmph!

generous indeed, he just wouldn't admit he was as Lehree had put it "brat

crazy". I wondered what his and his new mates offspring would look like.

Would they have her dragon traits too? Or would they not manifest them at

all? It would be exciting to find out either way. "Sir, they are here."

Stated Psargus whom was acting as my secretary while Kak was away. "Good...

send them in." I replied. I rose from my chair and nodded my greeting to

each lady in turn as they entered my office. The first was Madam Katie, the

second Lady Pteska, the third young Warrior Super-elite Seastorm, four was

Lady Cheech, oft times called Lady Cheech the crazed, and lastly my own

mate Lady Lehree. I had told Lehree to inform the other ladies before hand

of the grave nature of this occasion however I noted that not one of them

wore an expression of grimness. Rather they all had the glint of

anticipation in their eyes. No doubt the proposition of executing the

former queen was a pleasure. There were few Saiyajins if any who actually

LIKED their queen. Many already knew of her treasonous actions and found it

distasteful that she was "hiding" from punishment by using the law in HER

favour. Soon all would here of her heinous crime against her own child and

wish they were given this opportunity. "Ladies I trust Lady Lehree has

already briefed you on the full list of crimes committed the accused?" I

asked. They all nodded in unison. "Good then you know why I have summoned

you here." "With in less than 6 hours our King shall be returning home...

with the young prince." I informed them. There was a collective gasp as

eyes went wide in amazement then joy. "They young prince lives.... truly?"

Asked Madame Katie. "Indeed he is and is in fine health as well." "It seems

he survived his dam's attack on him, as well as a nine day journey without

nourishment to a world where he was fortunately found by a kind native whom

took and raised him as her own." "Since the law states that should a mate

turn against their other mate the wronged mate is free of the bond allowing

them to seek another mate." "With that I am pleased to inform you that our

King has mated the very native that had raised the young prince and that

she is of Dragon-kind." I related to them. Once again there was collective

sounds of surprise, all positive. It seemed they too were pleased to have a

queen of dragon blood on the throne. I figured all our world would be

pleased in one way or another. It was well known that dragons are among the

most powerful of beings and thus would give great strength and power to the

throne if not the Saiyajin people as well. Though for myself I was pleased

because she was what my cousin needed and would be far better than any

other she-Saiyajins I could think of. "What does she look like?" Asked Lady

Pteska. "How did she find the prince?" queried Warrior Seastorm. "How come

she wasn't mated before?... not that I'm upset about it though." Asked my

own mate. I held my hand up to forestall any other inquiries. "First, from

what I have been shown she is a petite, lovely, mature woman of seeming

noble bearing." "As well as having a kind and generous nature." "Second she

found our prince in a pod, heavily bruised, beaten, and starved." "Lastly

She had HAD a mate who was killed in a accident not too long ago." "As the

woman, who's name is Reginleif and her other children had no others to look

out for them our king offered them refuge here and later convinced

Reginleif to be his mate." I answered. "What does the young prince look

like?" asked Lady Cheech. "From what his Majesty has told me much like

himself. I replied. Each smiled nodding in approval though I was certain

even if he looked nothing of my cousin they'd not care. It was enough to

know their prince lived and was well. "If that is all ladies I bid you to

prepare yourselves for the activities ahead." I said. They nodded and

happily left to prepare. "At last we will have justice, won't we Cumba."

Said my mate before she left with the others. "Yes Lehree we will have

justice... for us all." I replied.



********* Arteesia *********

Damn why couldn't that fool mate of mine get himself killed on his

"vacation" like a descent fellow. Now I'll have to off the bastard somehow

soon after he returns. I've been lucky he's been more interested with his

training than trying to breed me again. Not that he'd be successful any way

since I had myself rendered virtually sterile. It was hard enough to off

that one brat I did spawn. Damn him that he took my queens medallion away.

I had rather liked that particular adornment as it showed all whom and what

I was. The fucking brat, if I had the chance to kill him again over taking

that medallion, I'd do it with great relish. Oh how I remember those stupid

trusting eyes staring at me in disbelieve when I S Q U E E Z E D his little

throat shut. "Mother how could you?" the pathetic brat seemed to cry. I

nearly laughed at his feeble attempts to free himself as I strangled the

life out of him. Took him long enough to die though, the retch. I was

afraid someone would catch me in the process else I'd not really cared HOW

long the little parasite took to die. I HATED THAT.... THAT... T - H - I -

N - G. But I L O V E D the memory of killing it though. Another thing was

bothering me a little right now. I wondered why Cumba has such a sparkle

about him when he had informed me that Vegeta would return today AND that

he had brought me a "special" surprise. Usually the idiot would have had a

pained look on his face, he never approved of me being his queen. Well too

bad for him, but I'd be sure to relieve him of his misery once Vegeta was

dead. I'd send him, his mate, and all his brats along with his cherished

cousin my so called mate straight to hell. Then I'd been the Queen of all

Saiyajins and rule as a monarch should, with an steel fist, ruthless, and

make them do MY bidding. Mmmmm the very thought of my goal finally realized

sent shivers a kin to a lovely rapture all over me. Ahhhh it will be soooo

much delight to have power over an ENTIRE planet. Who knows maybe if Lord

Freeza would fancy a she-Saiyajin as a mate perhaps I could be Queen of the

universe as well. Yessss that would be fine, but all in good time. First

things first... greet my mate, get him settled, kill him, take over. This

will be a fine time for me indeed. At last I will get everything I deserve,

and it will be ALL my OWN doing.


***** minutes before landing *****

********* Haakon *********

Mamma was helping me get dressed in clothes Papa said a Prince should wear.

Frigga was already dressed and with Freya and Raditz right now. I looked at

the under armour she was about to put on me. It was the same colour blue I

liked so much. I even got my own armour to wear over it with Papa's royal

symbol on it. He also had Mamma put on me the medallion she found with me

when I came to her. He said it would scare that woman that tried to kill me

and make her fear me. Good! cause I don't like her AT ALL. I had bad dreams

sometimes about fighting a monster I couldn't beat. I had that one a lot

again after Daddy died. I didn't have it anymore though since Papa came. I

looked at one of the moons of my new home as we passed it. I saw my new

world a while ago already. It sorta looked like someone hit it really hard,

bruised it, and made it bleed. Papa said that it wouldn't be that way

always. He told me that he and my cousin Cumba were working on a way to

make the sky almost as blue as Earth's only a little darker since our

planet was further from the sun than Earth was. Papa said our planet was a

lot colder than where I lived but that we would be fine. I hoped Mamma

would be okay, she liked it when it was warm. I wanted her to feel as good

as she could cause she was going to have a baby from Papa. Freya told me

it's easier to have a baby when you feel good than when you don't. Papa was

a little worried that Mamma had got a baby before we got home, cause he

told me Saiyajin women should not to go into space when they were going to

have a baby. But Mamma was a dragon...not a Saiyajin so I knew she'd be

okay. Mamma told me that all men worry about their mates when she's gonna

have a baby, specially if they love them a lot; and I KNEW Papa loved my

Mamma A LOT. The ship shook a little bit. Mamma looked around the room a

little. "Whoa, feels like were entering the atmosphere now." Mamma said. I

could tell she was a little scared. I was more excited than scared. But I

still wasn't looking forward to seeing that mean woman again. I looked up

at her when as she stood and tried to smile at her. She then smiled the

smile that made every thing okay, it made me smile even more. "Are you

ready my son?" she asked me softly while holding out her hand for me to

take. "I'm ready Mamma." I told her and took her hand.


********* Reginleif *********


I tried to keep myself occupied with dressing Haakon so that I could ignore

my stomach was which was in knots, not because of the baby I was carrying

now to be sure. It was the great apprehension that had a hold of me now. I

really had not wanted to be a queen and yet now through virtue of Vegeta I

was. Soon I would be presented to his people and I wondered how they would

receive me as I was not Saiyajin. If I had the crew to go by I would not be

as nervous, since they were all in favour of me. I was also nervous about

the confrontation we would have almost immediately after we landed. I would

at last see the face of the woman who tried to kill my Haakon. I was torn

between fury and fear, I felt like ripping her to shreds for what she did

to him. Yet I knew I was not strong as a Saiyajin and could not fight as

well, but I was faster due to turning into a dragon so that was in my

favour. But now with the baby on the way neither I nor Vegeta wanted me to

even risk a possible confrontation. He assured me that the treacherous

woman would be dealt with. I finished dressing him by placing the golden

medallion I had found in his hand. Vegeta had informed me that it was

actually to be my medallion as it was the traditional queen's medallion.

But in this case when she would see her former son wearing the

incriminating medallion he had taken in his fight to survive her attempt

she would truly feel fear. I am not normally a vengeful person, except

where children were concerned. Since I survived my own childhood hell I was

more than sympathetic to the crimes done against other children. I truly

hoped they planed to tie that female by her four limbs and tail in spread

eagle fashion over a ant hill, skin her alive, pour salt on the raw wounds

than pour honey over the salt and allow the ants to slowly devour her. THAT

would be close to the vicious, callous pain she and other's like her

they've done to innocent children. I nearly jumped looking around the room

as the ship shook like a plane going through turbulence. "Whoa, feels like

were entering the atmosphere now." I stated nervously. I got to my feet

giving Haakon a quick once over and saw him smile hesitantly at me. I knew

he was nervous about what was soon to happen. I smiled at him reassuringly

that all would be well, his smile grew larger and confident. And I knew all

would be well, I could feel it in my heart.

"Are you ready my son?" I asked him softly while holding out my hand for

him to take. I was not sure he would take my hand since her was learning

very quick how Saiyajins were SUPPOSE to act." I'm ready Mamma." He told me

as he took my hand. Some how I had the feeling that he was taking my hand

more for my peace of mind, and I appreciated it. The door of the room

opened as Vegeta came sweeping in. His mask of sternness melted into one of

open warmth as he set eyes on us. "Good you are both ready." He said

smiling approvingly. I stopped myself from bowing only barely, he

absolutely HATED it when I would bow to him, just like Haakon HATED it.

Ofcourse for Haakon I was only pulling his chain, but Vegeta I still felt

compelled to bow when I saw him. He raised an accusing eyebrow at me as he

caught the beginning motion. ^Will you ever stop trying to bow in my

presence Reginleif?^ I frowned apologetically ^I am afraid it will be a

while yet my gentle King.^ I replied. With a single stride he stood before

me lowering his proud face down to mine. He smiled a warm loving smile I

knew few if any ever saw. It was open and caused his pure black eyes to

sparkle with brightness. ^I shall be ever patent for that day my beloved

Queen/mate.^ He sent tenderly. I blushed at him feeling a little shy. He

brushed my cheek gently with his as he straightened back to his full

majestic height. It was sort of a Saiyajin version of a kiss on the cheek.

The way he did it was just as stimulating had he actually kissed it. I had

taught him about kissing and he seemed to be catching on quick as he loved

to practice often. We all exited the room to the wide main hall where he

led us to where the main exit was at. I glanced up at him noting his stern

face was back in place. I knew it was the face all but those close to him

knew. A stern, cold, fierce, calculating, mighty King of Saiyajins.

Incapable of any feelings save hate, power, and rage. But I knew better;

though he was indeed fierce, ruthless, calculating, and mighty. He WAS

capable of showing more emotions than others thought, even in ways that

humans falter at. A Saiyajins heart is warm and willing to feel entirely.

With the reckless abandon of an animal who cares little for "human"

inhibitions. But they were extremely careful of whom they chose to 'see'

that part of them for it was to be vulnerable, and ALL Saiyajins hated to

feel vunerable. Near the doorway I saw Frigga and Freya already there along

with the rest of the crew. They bowed in unison, covering their hearts with

their clenched fists as sign of fidelity to their King and Prince. (*sigh*

and I suppose to me too. :þ). "Open the door Kak it is time." The King

commanded.



********* King Vegeta *********

As the door opened to the castles docking bay I instructed my mate and son

to stand behind me for the time being while having my two adopted daughters

to position themselves behind them. The crew exited first to form the line

of honour guard on either side of the ramp. I could feel my little mates

nervousness and sent to her reassuringly. Near the bottom of the ramp stood

my cousin Lord Cumba. I could see the gleam in his eye as he was more than

ready for this to happen. About 15' or so behind him stood my one time mate

all dressed in one of her finest gowns. Only a few steps behind her were

the nobles of my court. As I descended the ramp I saw how her eyes shown

xactly how clueless she was for they held only contempt and smugness. She

soon would feel fear and her eyes would reflect terror. "Welcome home your

majesty." My cousin greeted with the formality the decorum dictated. ^My

heart is warmed at the safe return of you all cousin.^ He sent as he bowed.

"I thank you Lord Cumba." ^As is mine cousin.^ I sent to him. "Welcome home

my mate." greeted Arteesia with a forced bow. My eyes narrowed as she

straightened back up to look me brazenly in the eye. I allowed a smile to

cross my face. "Arteesia, I have a surprise for you." I said in slow

asure. "What kind of surprise my...king?" She asked speaking the last

with sarcasm. "I believe you know Price Vegeta?" I said as I stood aside to

reveal my son who stood before Reginleif protectively. Her eyes nearly

popped from their sockets as she saw the boy very much alive, well, and

wearing her medallion. "IM-IMPOSSIBLE!" "IT CANNOT BE!" She howled in

terror. "Ah but it is, the son you sot to rob me of still lives inspite of

your efforts to kill him. She was in such shock she did not notice the

entrance of 5 black cloaked figures. I smiled in victory, now I shall have

vengeance. "Lady Arteesia in the eyes of your peers I now pass sentence not

only for your transgressions of treason against the crown but the bodily

harm you have done to his highness my son." She shook her head in

disbelieve as my words sunk into her stunned mind. This surly was the LAST

thing she would have expected. "I here by sentence you to death.... by the

women of vengeance." Her eyes went wide in terror as I announced her fate.

It was well known that when it came to matters of great magnitude it was

women who were the most vicious in implementing punishment. Arteesia would

be long in dying, and I truly believed that the punishment fit the crime.

Before she could react further the five figures rushed up to her striping

her of all clothing and dignity dragging her off kicking and screaming to

where they would do their worst to her. I looked back to see my son smiling

smugly as his would-be killer was dragged to her fate. I nodded I had

expected such a reaction from him, he was a Saiyajin after all and she DID

deserve it. What I had not expected was the calm, impassive face my little

mate wore. I could feel through our bond that she was not distressed the

least about the soon to be late Arteesia's death. The other odd, vengeful,

images that involved an ant hill, salt, and honey came through her mind. I

smiled inwardly she acted more Saiyajin in many ways than she knew. I

dismissed the confused muttering mass of nobles with the promise of full

explanation that evening. I then looked to my cousin whom was smiling

unabashed as he approached. He stood a full 6 inches taller than I but his

demeanor was more open and approachable. Strange for a Saiyajin, though I

found it a trait that made him an effective right hand man. My father

thought him weak because of his open expression of his emotions. If only he

knew that his strange trait made him in many ways stronger than most

Saiyajin's that never showed a single emotion. "Cousin." he said with cheer

as he embraced me with the gladness he felt. I called my son and mate

forward along my step-daughters, introducing them each in turn ending with

my son. He greeted the two young ladies graciously causing them to smile

shyly. He then looked appraisingly at my new queen and smiled approvingly

as I knew he would. "You are very welcome here mate of my cousin." He

stated as bowed slightly to her. She blushed and scooted closer to my side.

He gave me a knowing look and smiled at her coy actions. He then crouched

down to my son's height and smiled a wistful smile. "You look the very

picture of your father when he was a brat young price." He said as he

reached out and ruffled my son's hair. Haakon gave him a surprised look at

the familiar way he treated him. With the spontaneity of a child his age he

reached up and hugged Cumba while my cousin held him close, grateful as I

that he COULD hold him. He stood up still holding the boy shifting him to a

sitting position on his arm. "Come my King and cousin a feast awaits

inside." He stated as he beckoned me to follow him. "Come all of you." He

said to the rest including the crew. My son smiled at the acceptance he was

receiving content to be carried by his cousin who conveyed him inside.


********* Reginleif *********

I watched with no emotion as the bitch was dragged off by the five women of

vengeance. I hoped she'd suffer for all the torment she caused. A few

moments later I heard Vegeta addressing most of the assembled Saiyajins

that I figured were nobles. They left all muttering among themselves

leaving only our little group and Lord Cumba. He stepped forward and

embraced Vegeta in a manner a father would a son. It surprised me that Lord

Cumba was actually taller than his cousin. But somehow he did not seem as

intimidating as most Saiyajins I had seen. I supposed that it was because

his face was not masked with a perpetual scowl. Which ever the case he

greeted my girls openly causing them to smile shyly. He then looked at me

as if taking all he could. He smiled with great warmth as he told me I was

very welcome here. I never expected such a warm greeting from someone I

hardly knew. I felt my cheeks grow warm as nestled closer to Vegeta. I then

watched as he greeted his younger cousin, my son. The look in his eyes

verified all I had seen in Vegeta's memory of his past. These two cousin's

shared a unique relationship that though only 5 years separated them, Cumba

was more father than cousin to my royal mate. I smiled as Haakon took to

him readily, happy he was getting to know the rest of his family. "Come my

King and cousin a feast awaits inside." He stated as he beckoned the king

to follow him. "Come all of you." He said to the rest of us including the

crew. I smiled openly as my son smiled sitting in his older cousin's arm

happy that things were truly going to be fine.


(A/N: Goodness this took me long enough to do. It wasn't a writers block or
anything, just taking care of sick little ones, make some goat sausage,
burger, and getting prepared for my herd to have some more kids. Oyie-vay I
have been busy up until just yesterday. Hope you liked the chapter. I
believe there is at least a couple of more chapters that I shall be adding
to this fic. I shall be posting them on the REVA fan fic site as well. It's a
bit of a different set up and I must thank Crazy Chi-Chi {thanks Cheech}
for directing me to that site. The address is www.revafiction.com http://www.revafiction.com. See ya all there till next chapter take care.)
