Little Brother
********* Haakon *********
Poop I hate bein a prince. You have to know sooo much ugh. Gives me a
headache sometimes. Papa is really nice and says I'll catch on soon and not
to worry. At least I have some friends I can play with that I won't
accidentally hurt like Earth kids. My new best friend is Raditz's younger
brother Kakarott, but I call him Goku since he looks just like him. He
thinks its funny I call him a non-Saiyajin name but he doesn't mind. He
said he'd answer to most any name so long a no one calls him late for food.
He can fight better than me too and is my favourite sparring partner.
Master Chuin always taught me that the only way to become stronger and
better is to fight someone stronger and better. Today I'm with Mamma and
Papa at the medical bay. We get to see the baby inside Mamma today and find
out if I'm gonna have a brother or sister. The doctor had just put a
scanner on Mamma's belly, it was funny too cause the baby was moving makin
the scanner jiggle. "Well lets see what we have here." Said the doctor as
he turned it on. A couple of seconds later I could see the baby all curled
up, but it looked different than me. It had wings and tail like Mamma, but
had spikey hair like Papa and me, only longer. I also saw little claws like
Mamma's when it opened and closed one of it's hand. "Well it looks like
another prince is on the way." The doctor told us. Mamma looked up at Papa
who was smilin real big and happy at her. She then looked at me still
smiling. "Hear that Haakon, your gonna have a little brother." She said. I
smiled back at her, but I was not as happy as I thought I'd be. I learned a
lot about the woman who bore me since I been here. I met my Grandfather,
her daddy and he was a good and nice man. Nothing like her, he was VERY sad
when he found out what she did to me and tried to do to Papa. I liked him
very much and visited him a lot so he wouldn't be lonely since Grandma had
died soon after the mean woman was born. I didn't mind being his grandson,
but now that I see my little brother I can see that I'm gonna look >different
than all my brothers and sisters that Mamma will have. I want to
be like them, I wanna be Mamma's REAL son. But I didn't know how I could do
that, I was born Saiyajin, not Saiyajin/dragon. When Mamma was done with
the doctors and stuff Papa went back to his work while she, Napa, Kale, and
Brock took me to the sparring room where Goku was waitin for me. Kale and
Brock were always with her as her guards, Napa was mine. "Monin Prince
Vegeta." Goku called to me when we came in. "Grrrrr, How many times do I
gotta tell you baka... MY NAME IS HAAKON." I shouted at him. I hated it
when I was called my Saiyajin, unless it was working with Papa; then I HAD
to be called Prince Vegeta. "Hey!" Mamma said to me like she was upset with
me. I looked up at her and she was upset. "Heh heh, I keep forgettin that
prince Haakon." Goku said with his hand behind his head. "Uunnhhhh, just
Haakon right now Goku... okay." I told him back. He smiled wider at me.
"Kay Haakon." he said. Mamma then gave me a hug. "Okay you two, I'll be
back in a couple of hours." "Don't knock eachother out again alright."
Mamma told us. "Okay your majesty." Goku told her. I nodded to her after
she let me go, she nodded back then left. I told Napa to stand out side and
keep watch. Then we stretched and warmed up, got into ready stance, and
began sparring. I should have kept my mind on my fightin cause Goku was
hitting me way too much than normal. He suddenly stopped and was lookin at
me funny. "What?!" I asked finally. "Your not concentratin on your sparrin
Haakon, what's wrong?" He asked me. I told him I was thinkin about how my
new brother was gonna have Mamma's dragon looks as well as Papa's Saiyajin
looks. "Well isn't the baby suppose to look like it's mommie and daddy?" He
asked me while scratching his head. "Yeah, I know that stupid." "It's just
it's also going to look different than me cause I'm not part dragon." I
explained. "Oh." was all he said as he got a look like he was thinkin hard.
A lot of people thought Kakarotto was pretty dumb cause he always had a
spaced out look when he thought. It was just cause what ever he did he was
REALLY focused on, so I knew he was thinkin about some way that maybe I
COULD become part Mamma. He blinked his eyes quickly then smiled really
big. "Hey we could go to Chikyuu, find the dragon balls, and ask Mr. Long
Shen to make you half dragon like your Mamma." He said excitedly. (O.O) My
eyes went real wide. I never ever thought that the dragon balls were REAL.
But then I thought of something else and that made me feel like it might be
harder then it sounded. "But we'd have to look all over the planet for them
and that could take a L-O-N-G time." I said. I wished that I knew a Bulma
that could make a dragon radar like the one in the Earth series. I then
remembered Azure and I knew I DID have sorta like a Bulma. "Come on Goku,
lets go talk to Azure." I called to him as I went out a window of the
sparring room towards the labs. I didn't want Napa in on this yet so I
didn't want him to see us. There we saw her at her favorite place makin
some kind of machine. I told her what I needed. "Well anything that gives
of a unique resonance signal can be tracked." "But I would need a sample so
I could calibrate the dragon ball locator to the correct frequency." She
told me. I was beginning to think this was gettin harder by the minute till
Goku spoke up. "That's no problem, I still got the one my martial art
teacher on Chikyuu willed to me when he died." "His name was Gohan and he
helped me get my focus strait so I could be a better fighter." "He sorta
treated me like a grandson ya know." He said. "REALLY, you got a dragon
ball Goku." "Way kewl, lets get it and bring it back to Azure." I said.
"Come on Haakon, I keep it at Raditz's place so Turlus doesn't try to take
it like he did before." "Big brothers can be poopy you know." He said. I
had to agree with him. Brenden was a big poop now and again to me too,
though I did miss him a little bit now that I wouldn't see him again. "Hey
you know if we find them all and I make a wish that you'll lose your ball
for at least a Chikyuuian year?" I asked him. "Yeah, I know.... but since
Azure is gonna make a dragon ball tracker I'll be able to find it later, so
no big deal." He told me. "B'sides your my best friend and Prince so I want
to help you." He added as he smiled at me. I smiled back, he was my best
friend too and I'd do what I could for him also. Raditz's place was really
big two story stone house with a green house in the back where his brother
Tata grew special Saiyajin plants. Tata wasn't really his brother, he was
adopted by Raditz's mamma Radina while she was still carrying Raditz. Tata
was born with a cripple hips cause his mamma took some drug while she
carried him. His real papa threw him into the snow to be eaten or die so
that's how Radina got him. She and Bardock didn't care that Tata couldn't
walk good, he was strong otherwise and that's all that mattered to them.
Tata wasn't cripple any more though now that my Mamma had healed him. We
saw him outside the house with Freya lookin at the house. "Hey Freya,
what's up with your house?" I called to her. She turned around a looked
surprised. "Haakon?" "Oh it is you." "Nothing is wrong with the house, Tata
and I were checking the blizzard shutters on the windows for this coming
winter." she told me. "So what are you doing here?" She asked me. Goku told
her instead and Tata let us in so we could get the dragon ball. "So how are
you planning to get to Chikyuu in the first place, and what are you going
to wish for?" She asked me while Goku got the ball. I had already thought
of asking Raditz and her to take us so I could surprise Mamma, so I told
her that. "You know Haakon Reginleif doesn't care if your half dragon or
not." She said. "I know Freya, but I don't want to look different than all
my brothers and sisters Mamma and Papa are gonna have." I told her. "(sigh)
Maybe so Haakon but what about Lord Corm?" "If you wish to be Reginleif's
son he won't be your blood grandfather any more." She explained to me.
"He's always gonna be my Grandpa Freya, cause I know he is." I told her.
"Well you've always been stubborn anyway and if I don't agree to take you
you'll probably get old Napa into trouble by getting him to take you two
instead." She said sorta pissed at me. "Too true." I said smilin evil at
her. (Õ.Ó) "You know Haakon... you are a REAL BRAT sometimes." She sorta
growled at me. (^.^) I just smiled more at her comment. After Goku got the
dragon ball we booked it back to Azure. Man the next three days seemed like
F-O-R-E-V-E-R. But she had it finished and by the fourth day I told Mamma
and Papa that I was just going to go with Freya, Raditz, Tata, and
Kakarotto to Chikyuu for the day so I could get them a surprise. Papa was
always worried when I'd leave the planet and Mamma seemed a little
suspicious but they let me go any way since I was takin Napa to be body
guard too. I liked Napa okay. Like Goku everyone thought he was stupid. He
just liked taking his time to think about things, except fighting that is
he was quick with that. It was going great, the tracker was picking them up
real good and clear. Only one more remained, and though it was easy enough
to find, gettin it was going to be harder. It was in the middle of a
volcano. Raditz and Napa both agreed it would take special equipment that
was not here at this time to retrieve it. I didn't WANT TO WAIT any longer.
I was gettin very upset, I wanted to do this now and no one had any ideas
how to do it now. "Hey Haakon, you can go super Saiyajin, why don't you
make a strong shield around yourself." "You could do it for a few minutes
ya know." Goku whispered to me. He was right, but I'd have only three
minutes tops before the heat of the lava would be too much for me, I could
get hurt pretty bad too. But I wanted the dragon ball more and nodded once
before I did just that. "HAAKON!" Freya cried. "YOUR HIGHNESS!, PRINCE
VEGETA!." the others called out as I went super Saiyajin before I dove into
the volcano. Man was it hot, I thought I was going to pass out till I saw
what I wanted. I wasn't about to give up now that it was in sight. By the
time I got it and flew out I zoomed straight to the near by ocean to cool
down. I felt a little sick and dizzy.... but I had the last ball. Raditz
snatched me out of the water and was checking me out for injuries since he
was a doctor and all. "I'm fine Raditz." I told him, wishing my voice
wasn't so weak. "Sure you are your highness." He said his voice all angry.
"Of all the stupid, reckless things to do." Freya shouted at me as we
landed. "But I got the ball." I insisted while holding it up. "Fat lotta
good that would have done if you had stayed in there any longer." She said
as she hugged me. While she did I could feel her using her ki to heal me,
she and Mamma were REALLY good at it now; I felt much better after that.
Soon we headed out to a remote location and summoned the dragon. He was
super huge and asked me what it was I wanted to wish for. When I told him
my wish he looked at me sorta funny, then seemed to smile. "Very well...
your wish is granted." He said in his booming voice. I didn't really feel
any different but I looked and I had wings, claws, and everything else just
like my yet to be born little brother. "I have fulfilled your wish, now
fare well..... little brother." He said as he disappeared along with the
dragon balls. "Little brother.... He called ME little brother?!" I said
confuse while looking to the adults. Raditz crouched down to my level.
"Your highness, the queen is the spirit of the Cosmos dragon reborn." "In
her spirits other incarnations she was mother to most every good, neutral,
elemental, or wish dragons ever hatched." "Though she is not physically the
same in this life, Long Shen still acknowledges the queens spirit as 'his'
mother since her spirit essence is, thus making you now 'his' brother
too." He explained to me. (O.O)"WOW! Then Mamma's got A LOT of babies and
I've got A LOT of brothers and sisters too." "But what is the Cosmos
Dragon?" I asked him. He looked down at the ground a minute before he
started to talk. "Well you know there are forces in the universe we call
Gods and Goddesses right?" I nodded to him and waited for him to tell me
the rest. "Well be they light or dark they have a limitation that they
cannot interfere directly with the affairs of mortals unless called upon."
"The dark Gods decided they didn't like being limited." "But since they
were bound by it they had to find a way around it so they could spread
their dark influences all over." "So they made a god-like creature from all
their darkest thoughts, giving it all like them save it was not a god in
one way; it could be killed." "Gods do not die, only merely go into a state
of regeneration with in a new avatar if harmed on the physical plane." "But
the creature they made COULD die, but it could also be re-born into a new
host." The host has to be willing though and must be perfect for the
entities purpose." He started. Raditz then sighed huge, shaking his head
slowly side to side. "Ofcourse there is no end to the numbers 'worthy' of
being so dark so a host was almost assured." "But since it is a whole new
being each life it got around the 'god' clause of the 'meddle not directly
with mortals, least called' limitation." "Eventually the avatar becomes
aware of their destiny and puruse that course." "They called their creation
the Abyss dragon." "Its scales are blackest black, devouring and destroying
all light in its coils.... save one." "The Gods of light decided that now
it was only fair to create a entity of opposite nature." "All light and good
beings were asked to give a tiny spark of their light to create what has
become known as the Cosmos Dragon." "She is made up of all those trillion's
upon trillion's of light given freely for the promotion of balance and all
that is light." "What is the difficult part is finding a host, that is an
avatar unable to be corrupted." "To attain this most avatar's endure
horrors in their young lives to test the strength of their spirits." "The
thing that seems to make your mother sad is the result of enduring such an
ordeal." "Her spirit was deemed worthy thus she became the avatar of the
Cosmos dragon." "All who know and understand her nature admire that it is
among the most uncorruptible and unbreakable in the universe." "That my
prince is who the Cosmos dragon is." Raditz finished. I didn't know what to
say, I knew Mamma was special; but this was different. I was now more glad
than ever to be part of her now. I looked at Freya who was smiling at me.
"Come on Freya, lets go show Mamma and Papa the 'NEW' me." I told her
smiling. "Gee, you look real cool as a half dragon your highness." Goku
told me. I knew he was using "your highness" because Napa and Raditz were
around so I didn't get pissed at him. "Yeah does sorta suit me don't it." I
admitted. There was one disadvantage of Freya being a half Saiyajin now.
Cause she whacked me on the head for bein 'smug'. "OW!" "HEY! WHY'D YOU HIT
ME?" I yelled at her. "Don't be so smug, Long Shen could have just as
easily said no." She snapped. Sheesh, what a grouch. I though to myself as
I rubbed my head. "Hey, lets see if bein' half dragon makes ya fly faster
Prince Vegeta." Goku said with a laugh as he jumped up and started to fly
off. "Your on,(XD)" I replied as I took to the air with him. "HAAKON!"
"YOUR HIGHNESS!, PRINCE VEGETA!." They all yelled as we took off, jeez is
that all they can say. I out distanced all of them super easy now but I
dropped back to save Goku's butt before Raditz caught up with him (^.^).
They all caught up with us at the shuttle about 45 minutes later. "Cripes
Freya had the meanest scowl when they landed.(Ò.Ó) ^You little freakin
BRAT!^ She sent to me. ^¦þ^ I sent back. ^Yeah wait till Reginleif finds
out THEN we'll see who has the last ¦þ.^ She replied. (Ó.Ò) Poop, and she
will too, ah well at least I got my wish. "Come your highness, let's get
you home now." Napa said once he caught his breath. I nodded and off we
went. Boy was Mamma and Papa going to be surprised.
********* Reginleif *********
Goodness Saiyajin babies were active practically from conception. I was
just slightly over two months pregnant and the baby was already the human
equivalent of five months. He was busy kicking and punching away while I
kept my eye on the landing pad from where I stood on the balcony of the
room Vegeta shared with me. Haakon had gone off to Chikyuu for the day with
Freya and the others. He seemed excited but acted as if he were hiding
something from me. His father had the same impression but we allowed him to
go never the less. He even took Napa so I supposed he couldn't get in too
much trouble....right. I felt a wave of relief wash over me as I saw the
shuttle he had left in coming in for a landing. ^I can tell by your mood
you've seen his shuttle landing?^ King Vegeta sent to me. ^Yes, are you
able to be there too?^ I asked. ^I shall be done presently, I shall meet
you both at the bay.^ He replied. I sent back a mental nod as I started out
of the room. Kale and Brock took their positions beside me after I exited.
Since I HAD to have body guards I was at least glad to have them as my
guards as I enjoyed their company very much. We entered the bay moments
after the shuttle touched down. I saw King Vegeta entering from a different
direction joining me at the bottom of the ramp of the ship. "I wonder what
the surprise is going to be?" I asked him as he placed a hand on my
shoulder which I nuzzled. "We shall soon see wont we." He replied coolly
stroking my cheek. We both turned our attention towards the shuttle as the
door slid open. What I saw made me feel slightly dizzy as it was among one
of the last things I had expected. I leaned against Vegeta to keep me
steady as there coming down the ramp was Haakon alright, but he had dragon
attributes just as the baby I was expecting had. "SURPRISE MAMMA, PAPA." He
chimed happily as he came got to the bottom of the ramp and looked up at us
with a wide happy smile. "How did you accomplish this boy?" His father
asked completely amazed. "I found the Dragon balls, made a wish and asked
the dragon to make me Mamma's REAL son, just like my little brother." He
told him. Vegeta and I looked at eachother. At first I thought he would be
upset but he quickly assured me he was not, just shocked. "Well this IS
most certainly a surprise." He said to Haakon. I nodded mutely, not
trusting myself to speak. Later as we had had supper, Haakon had told us
his version of the story (I learned the WHOLE story later from Freya). He
also told us he still considered Lord Corm his Grandfather though he had
wished away all genetic ties to him. Frigga commented that he just wanted
to have an edge over Kakarotto. But she also admitted he looked okay as a
dragon too. He stated she was just jealous. It might had gone further but
Vegeta was in no mood for siblings squabbling at the table and put a stop
to it. Afterwards as I helped get him ready for bed I finally asked him.
^Haakon... was it so important, you KNOW it NEVER, EVER made a difference
to me whether or not you were my blood son.^ I sent to him. He looked at me
with those deep black eyes, so open and serious. ^It was to me Mamma, your
not mad at me are you?^ He asked. I smiled at him then reached over and
ruffled his soft hair. ^No I am not mad at you.^ ^The fact is my son is
that I am deeply honored that you went to such lengths.^ ^I am so very glad
you came into my life Haakon, and I love you always my little one.^ I said
as I reached out and pulled him to me for a hug. His little brother let us
both know he too approved of the change or at least that "he who was yet to
be born" was there too. Haakon smiled as we parted and put one of his hands
on my jiggling belly. "Yeah now I'll be able to keep up with you brat." He
playfully taunted his unborn brother. Still smiling he looked up at me ^Oh
and by the way... I love you too Mamma.^ He sent. I felt sentimental tears
welling up as I leaned over and kissed his forehead. He then hopped up on
his bed, allowed me to tuck him in before I went into Vegeta and my
adjoining room. Next I went to check on how Frigga was doing. She was just
getting herself off to bed when I entered. After I gave her a hug and kiss
good-night she turned a confused face to me. "Mamma... how come I'm a swan
and not a dragon like you, Haakon, and the baby?" she asked. "Because your
mine and your Daddy's baby and your spirit is a swan, like a Valkyrie." She
smiled happy with my answer. ^You know I love you very much my first baby.^
I sent to her. She smiled shyly at me and gave me another hug and kiss as a
reply. I stayed in my room going over my Saiyajin language lessons when
Vegeta came wearily into our room. I could sense how tired he was, there
was a lot of negotiations going on and they were mentally demanding. I gave
him a good back message after he had had a nice hot shower to further relax
him. I thought at first he had drifted off to sleep till I finished my
ministrations. ^To tell you the truth I am pleased with the change.^ He
sent softly as he turned over on his back. He then gathered me into his
arms and drifted off to sleep with in moments. Goddess how I envy that
talent at times. I was glad he was happy with his son's wish. For myself I
was happy if it made Haakon feel better and yes in a way I too was pleased.
Soon I was joining my family in the land of dreams as the steady beat of
Vegeta's mighty heart lulled me to sleep.
(A/N: Cripes took me long enough to do this chapter. Got 7 new baby goats
to add to my herd, and are they beauties. Got more kids on the way in
March, can't wait. You all have a Good and Happy Yule. See ya next
chapter... It's a Freeza moment. Take care all.)

that's how Radina got him. She and Bardock didn't care that Tata couldn't
walk good, he was strong otherwise and that's all that mattered to them.
Tata wasn't cripple any more though now that my Mamma had healed him. We
saw him outside the house with Freya lookin at the house. "Hey Freya,
what's up with your house?" I called to her. She turned around a looked
surprised. "Haakon?" "Oh it is you." "Nothing is wrong with the house, Tata
and I were checking the blizzard shutters on the windows for this coming
winter." she told me. "So what are you doing here?" She asked me. Goku told
her instead and Tata let us in so we could get the dragon ball. "So how are
you planning to get to Chikyuu in the first place, and what are you going
to wish for?" She asked me while Goku got the ball. I had already thought
of asking Raditz and her to take us so I could surprise Mamma, so I told
her that. "You know Haakon Reginleif doesn't care if your half dragon or
not." She said. "I know Freya, but I don't want to look different than all
my brothers and sisters Mamma and Papa are gonna have." I told her. "(sigh)
Maybe so Haakon but what about Lord Corm?" "If you wish to be Reginleif's
son he won't be your blood grandfather any more." She explained to me.
"He's always gonna be my Grandpa Freya, cause I know he is." I told her.
"Well you've always been stubborn anyway and if I don't agree to take you
you'll probably get old Napa into trouble by getting him to take you two
instead." She said sorta pissed at me. "Too true." I said smilin evil at
her. (Õ.Ó) "You know Haakon... you are a REAL BRAT sometimes." She sorta
growled at me. (^.^) I just smiled more at her comment. After Goku got the
dragon ball we booked it back to Azure. Man the next three days seemed like
F-O-R-E-V-E-R. But she had it finished and by the fourth day I told Mamma
and Papa that I was just going to go with Freya, Raditz, Tata, and
Kakarotto to Chikyuu for the day so I could get them a surprise. Papa was
always worried when I'd leave the planet and Mamma seemed a little
suspicious but they let me go any way since I was takin Napa to be body
guard too. I liked Napa okay. Like Goku everyone thought he was stupid. He
just liked taking his time to think about things, except fighting that is
he was quick with that. It was going great, the tracker was picking them up
real good and clear. Only one more remained, and though it was easy enough
to find, gettin it was going to be harder. It was in the middle of a
volcano. Raditz and Napa both agreed it would take special equipment that
was not here at this time to retrieve it. I didn't WANT TO WAIT any longer.
I was gettin very upset, I wanted to do this now and no one had any ideas
how to do it now. "Hey Haakon, you can go super Saiyajin, why don't you
make a strong shield around yourself." "You could do it for a few minutes
ya know." Goku whispered to me. He was right, but I'd have only three
minutes tops before the heat of the lava would be too much for me, I could
get hurt pretty bad too. But I wanted the dragon ball more and nodded once
before I did just that. "HAAKON!" Freya cried. "YOUR HIGHNESS!, PRINCE
VEGETA!." the others called out as I went super Saiyajin before I dove into
the volcano. Man was it hot, I thought I was going to pass out till I saw
what I wanted. I wasn't about to give up now that it was in sight. By the
time I got it and flew out I zoomed straight to the near by ocean to cool
down. I felt a little sick and dizzy.... but I had the last ball. Raditz
snatched me out of the water and was checking me out for injuries since he
was a doctor and all. "I'm fine Raditz." I told him, wishing my voice
wasn't so weak. "Sure you are your highness." He said his voice all angry.
"Of all the stupid, reckless things to do." Freya shouted at me as we
landed. "But I got the ball." I insisted while holding it up. "Fat lotta
good that would have done if you had stayed in there any longer." She said
as she hugged me. While she did I could feel her using her ki to heal me,
she and Mamma were REALLY good at it now; I felt much better after that.
Soon we headed out to a remote location and summoned the dragon. He was
super huge and asked me what it was I wanted to wish for. When I told him
my wish he looked at me sorta funny, then seemed to smile. "Very well...
your wish is granted." He said in his booming voice. I didn't really feel
any different but I looked and I had wings, claws, and everything else just
like my yet to be born little brother. "I have fulfilled your wish, now
fare well..... little brother." He said as he disappeared along with the
dragon balls. "Little brother.... He called ME little brother?!" I said
confuse while looking to the adults. Raditz crouched down to my level.
"Your highness, the queen is the spirit of the Cosmos dragon reborn." "In
her spirits other incarnations she was mother to most every good, neutral,
elemental, or wish dragons ever hatched." "Though she is not physically the
same in this life, Long Shen still acknowledges the queens spirit as 'his'
mother since her spirit essence is, thus making you now 'his' brother
too." He explained to me. (O.O)"WOW! Then Mamma's got A LOT of babies and
I've got A LOT of brothers and sisters too." "But what is the Cosmos
Dragon?" I asked him. He looked down at the ground a minute before he
started to talk. "Well you know there are forces in the universe we call
Gods and Goddesses right?" I nodded to him and waited for him to tell me
the rest. "Well be they light or dark they have a limitation that they
cannot interfere directly with the affairs of mortals unless called upon."
"The dark Gods decided they didn't like being limited." "But since they
were bound by it they had to find a way around it so they could spread
their dark influences all over." "So they made a god-like creature from all
their darkest thoughts, giving it all like them save it was not a god in
one way; it could be killed." "Gods do not die, only merely go into a state
of regeneration with in a new avatar if harmed on the physical plane." "But
the creature they made COULD die, but it could also be re-born into a new
host." The host has to be willing though and must be perfect for the
entities purpose." He started. Raditz then sighed huge, shaking his head
slowly side to side. "Ofcourse there is no end to the numbers 'worthy' of
being so dark so a host was almost assured." "But since it is a whole new
being each life it got around the 'god' clause of the 'meddle not directly
with mortals, least called' limitation." "Eventually the avatar becomes
aware of their destiny and puruse that course." "They called their creation
the Abyss dragon." "Its scales are blackest black, devouring and destroying
all light in its coils.... save one." "The Gods of light decided that now
it was only fair to create a entity of opposite nature." "All light and good
beings were asked to give a tiny spark of their light to create what has
become known as the Cosmos Dragon." "She is made up of all those trillion's
upon trillion's of light given freely for the promotion of balance and all
that is light." "What is the difficult part is finding a host, that is an
avatar unable to be corrupted." "To attain this most avatar's endure
horrors in their young lives to test the strength of their spirits." "The
thing that seems to make your mother sad is the result of enduring such an
ordeal." "Her spirit was deemed worthy thus she became the avatar of the
Cosmos dragon." "All who know and understand her nature admire that it is
among the most uncorruptible and unbreakable in the universe." "That my
prince is who the Cosmos dragon is." Raditz finished. I didn't know what to
say, I knew Mamma was special; but this was different. I was now more glad
than ever to be part of her now. I looked at Freya who was smiling at me.
"Come on Freya, lets go show Mamma and Papa the 'NEW' me." I told her
smiling. "Gee, you look real cool as a half dragon your highness." Goku
told me. I knew he was using "your highness" because Napa and Raditz were
around so I didn't get pissed at him. "Yeah does sorta suit me don't it." I
admitted. There was one disadvantage of Freya being a half Saiyajin now.
Cause she whacked me on the head for bein 'smug'. "OW!" "HEY! WHY'D YOU HIT
ME?" I yelled at her. "Don't be so smug, Long Shen could have just as
easily said no." She snapped. Sheesh, what a grouch. I though to myself as
I rubbed my head. "Hey, lets see if bein' half dragon makes ya fly faster
Prince Vegeta." Goku said with a laugh as he jumped up and started to fly
off. "Your on,(XD)" I replied as I took to the air with him. "HAAKON!"
"YOUR HIGHNESS!, PRINCE VEGETA!." They all yelled as we took off, jeez is
that all they can say. I out distanced all of them super easy now but I
dropped back to save Goku's butt before Raditz caught up with him (^.^).
They all caught up with us at the shuttle about 45 minutes later. "Cripes
Freya had the meanest scowl when they landed.(Ò.Ó) ^You little freakin
BRAT!^ She sent to me. ^¦þ^ I sent back. ^Yeah wait till Reginleif finds
out THEN we'll see who has the last ¦þ.^ She replied. (Ó.Ò) Poop, and she
will too, ah well at least I got my wish. "Come your highness, let's get
you home now." Napa said once he caught his breath. I nodded and off we
went. Boy was Mamma and Papa going to be surprised.
********* Reginleif *********
Goodness Saiyajin babies were active practically from conception. I was
just slightly over two months pregnant and the baby was already the human
equivalent of five months. He was busy kicking and punching away while I
kept my eye on the landing pad from where I stood on the balcony of the
room Vegeta shared with me. Haakon had gone off to Chikyuu for the day with
Freya and the others. He seemed excited but acted as if he were hiding
something from me. His father had the same impression but we allowed him to
go never the less. He even took Napa so I supposed he couldn't get in too
much trouble....right. I felt a wave of relief wash over me as I saw the
shuttle he had left in coming in for a landing. ^I can tell by your mood
you've seen his shuttle landing?^ King Vegeta sent to me. ^Yes, are you
able to be there too?^ I asked. ^I shall be done presently, I shall meet
you both at the bay.^ He replied. I sent back a mental nod as I started out
of the room. Kale and Brock took their positions beside me after I exited.
Since I HAD to have body guards I was at least glad to have them as my
guards as I enjoyed their company very much. We entered the bay moments
after the shuttle touched down. I saw King Vegeta entering from a different
direction joining me at the bottom of the ramp of the ship. "I wonder what
the surprise is going to be?" I asked him as he placed a hand on my
shoulder which I nuzzled. "We shall soon see wont we." He replied coolly
stroking my cheek. We both turned our attention towards the shuttle as the
door slid open. What I saw made me feel slightly dizzy as it was among one
of the last things I had expected. I leaned against Vegeta to keep me
steady as there coming down the ramp was Haakon alright, but he had dragon
attributes just as the baby I was expecting had. "SURPRISE MAMMA, PAPA." He
chimed happily as he came got to the bottom of the ramp and looked up at us
with a wide happy smile. "How did you accomplish this boy?" His father
asked completely amazed. "I found the Dragon balls, made a wish and asked
the dragon to make me Mamma's REAL son, just like my little brother." He
told him. Vegeta and I looked at eachother. At first I thought he would be
upset but he quickly assured me he was not, just shocked. "Well this IS
most certainly a surprise." He said to Haakon. I nodded mutely, not
trusting myself to speak. Later as we had had supper, Haakon had told us
his version of the story (I learned the WHOLE story later from Freya). He
also told us he still considered Lord Corm his Grandfather though he had
wished away all genetic ties to him. Frigga commented that he just wanted
to have an edge over Kakarotto. But she also admitted he looked okay as a
dragon too. He stated she was just jealous. It might had gone further but
Vegeta was in no mood for siblings squabbling at the table and put a stop
to it. Afterwards as I helped get him ready for bed I finally asked him.
^Haakon... was it so important, you KNOW it NEVER, EVER made a difference
to me whether or not you were my blood son.^ I sent to him. He looked at me
with those deep black eyes, so open and serious. ^It was to me Mamma, your
not mad at me are you?^ He asked. I smiled at him then reached over and
ruffled his soft hair. ^No I am not mad at you.^ ^The fact is my son is
that I am deeply honored that you went to such lengths.^ ^I am so very glad
you came into my life Haakon, and I love you always my little one.^ I said
as I reached out and pulled him to me for a hug. His little brother let us
both know he too approved of the change or at least that "he who was yet to
be born" was there too. Haakon smiled as we parted and put one of his hands
on my jiggling belly. "Yeah now I'll be able to keep up with you brat." He
playfully taunted his unborn brother. Still smiling he looked up at me ^Oh
and by the way... I love you too Mamma.^ He sent. I felt sentimental tears
welling up as I leaned over and kissed his forehead. He then hopped up on
his bed, allowed me to tuck him in before I went into Vegeta and my
adjoining room. Next I went to check on how Frigga was doing. She was just
getting herself off to bed when I entered. After I gave her a hug and kiss
good-night she turned a confused face to me. "Mamma... how come I'm a swan
and not a dragon like you, Haakon, and the baby?" she asked. "Because your
mine and your Daddy's baby and your spirit is a swan, like a Valkyrie." She
smiled happy with my answer. ^You know I love you very much my first baby.^
I sent to her. She smiled shyly at me and gave me another hug and kiss as a
reply. I stayed in my room going over my Saiyajin language lessons when
Vegeta came wearily into our room. I could sense how tired he was, there
was a lot of negotiations going on and they were mentally demanding. I gave
him a good back message after he had had a nice hot shower to further relax
him. I thought at first he had drifted off to sleep till I finished my
ministrations. ^To tell you the truth I am pleased with the change.^ He
sent softly as he turned over on his back. He then gathered me into his
arms and drifted off to sleep with in moments. Goddess how I envy that
talent at times. I was glad he was happy with his son's wish. For myself I
was happy if it made Haakon feel better and yes in a way I too was pleased.
Soon I was joining my family in the land of dreams as the steady beat of
Vegeta's mighty heart lulled me to sleep.
