Heta

CH. 2

it was morning. Heta had gone straight to bed after dinner the night before and now she was dressing in a short blue servant's top and tight blue pants. her hair was tied back in a piece of white cloth. it was five o' clock in the morning and she was about to go to the kitchen. she left as her fellow slaves were waking up.

she hurried to the kitchen are as fast as she could even then it took fifteen minutes to get there. she was handed a big plate of chicken as she entered quickly wolfed it down then again dashed back to her hall. when she got back it was 5:45 and she went back to her room for the remainder of the time she had. she got out sheets from the broom closet in the room then got some cleaning supplies she would need. by then it was six and she headed to the Prince's room. she walked in and opened the curtains letting the morning sunlight in. she then went up to the bed. "Sire, Sire time to 'wake" she said. in the blink of an eye she was on the floor with Prince Vegeta above her with a Ki ball in hand.

her face paled for a minute then turned red. she shut her eyes and the Prince stood. "I'm sorry Sire, but I was told to wake you at six o' clock on the dot. she said her face still red. "Shut up. I would advise you to knock next time," he turned away from her, "its better for your health." he said his tail curling and uncurling behind him. as he walked to the bathroom. "Yes Sire." she said bowing then getting to work on the king size bed.

after she had finished the bed she got out a pair of deep blue spandex pants, a deep blue spandex long sleeved shirt and his royal armor with a red cape attached at the shoulders. she set the clothes neatly on the dresser and the armor on top of them. she then proceeded to straighten the room up.

she collected up a few things, like books and blades and put them away. The books on the shelves according to name and blades in the many display cases. it would appear that the Prince liked blades. there were over a dozen display cases all taller than her. where there wasn't a bookshelf, dresser, door, bed, or window in the way there was a display case now full of blades and holders.

^-^

Prince Vegeta came out as she was putting a particularly heavy ax on the top shelf of one of the cases. as she placed it in the holder she slipped from the tall stool on and almost fell. as she steadied herself she grabbed a dagger's blade and it bit into her flesh harder than she had thought possible. blood seeped from the wound and she fell to the floor.

"you really should be careful those blades have been sharpened with the finest lasers in the known universe. I'm surprised that you still have a hand. he said with no emotion. "yes Sire." she said unwrapping her hair and rapping the cloth around the cut. "go wash the thing before it gets infected. I don't want a slave that has only one hand." she did as told and went back to her room to clean the wound.

when she came back her hand was wrapped properly and she wore dark blue finger-less gloves to hide the wrapping. she looked at the Prince who had dressed in the clothes that she had set out. she was about to speak when a dagger came rushing toward her face. instinct cut in and she calmly caught the dagger with two fingers.

"that's a first." was all the Prince said before walking up to the shocked slave & taking the dagger and placing it in its holder. "wha...how...did I do that?" she asked herself to shocked to say much more. "so what father said is true, but what happened to your tail?" Prince Vegeta asked ignoring what she had just said. "Tail? I had a tail?" Heta asked forgetting the 'Sire' crap. "and your eyes. why are they green?"

Heta had never noticed it, but her eyes were indeed green almost mistakable for black. she finally regained the ability to talk properly and said, "I don't know what you're talking about Sire. I don't even know what race I am. I have been a slave since I could walk." she said. Vegeta 'Hmph'ed and turned to walk out the twin oak doors. "have you had any training?" he questioned. " a little Sire. it was necessary for a time i had to hide from the slave t-" she cut herself off hoping she wasn't caught. Vegeta however caught what she was about to say, "so you have survival skills," he said walking down a few short halls to a room with a door made of raging orange metal, "that's good, because from now on you will be sparring with me." he said opening the orange doors to reveal a huge room made of the same metal. in it were the Orange Collars along with Nappa. in his hand was what looked like a Ki whip. "Nappa how are the sparring slaves coming?" the Prince questioned. Nappa and the Orange Collars turned toward him and bowed, one knee on the ground the other pressed against their chest and the right hand balled into a fist and placed in front of them. "it is coming well for most of them, but a few are having trouble keeping the Ki Whips active, Sire." Nappa said. "well then carry on. i have a new student for you, but you are to treat her better than the rest. she is after all my personal slave." The Prince said with a smirk. snickers were heard from the line of Orange Collars. " Oh shut up! at least i don't have to wear tacky orange collars you ahos!" she yelled at the Orange Collars, making them flinch and confused at the same time. she snorted at them and mumbled something along the lines of 'pathetic aho males'. Vegeta continued to smirk. "and now Nappa lets see you train her." he said walking, with his arms crossed, over to a bench closest to the group.

Heta walked over to the group and stood at the end of the line. she stood three inches shorter than the boy that stood next to her did. he had the tacky orange collar like the rest, but his uniform was different. the armor he wore did have a shoulder piece and the body suit he wore under that, was black instead of blue. his hair was lime green and his eyes seemed to change different colors in the light, like a cat's eyes in the dark.

~Hi. I'm Freth. What's your name?~ a voice said in Heta's head. 'huh?' she thought. a smile appeared on the boy's face. ~i said i would like to know your name.~ said the voice again. Heta finally got what he had said. 'oh, Heta, my name is Heta.' she thought. ~nice to meet you. you know that was funny what you did.~ Freth said. 'what the yelling at you guys?' she thought. ~yep. these 'ahos', as you put it, have far too big egos. just do me a favor, quickly learn what we already have and then get ahead of us. please these morons think they're better than ever other Color Collar, because they train to fight while the others do chores.~ Freth seemed desperate to spite the rest of the group. 'okay I'll try.' she said.

Nappa continued from where he had left off before the prince and his slave came in. "now as i was saying take the Ki ball in your hand and squeeze it. it will make a type of sword then you must lash it out at your opponent as well as putting more energy into it. now try." Nappa said and stepped aside so as not to be hit.

at first Heta didn't know what to do then she watched Freth.

his right hand raised and a few seconds later a small glowing blue ball appeared. he did as Nappa had said and squeezed it. the Ki became a long thin sword like thing not touching his hand. in one fast moment he lashed out at the air. with a loud CRACK the sword lengthened considerably and more than half was lax and flaming an angry blue.

she then raised her right hand and, as if she had done it before, a yellow Ki ball about the size of her fist appeared. she did as Freth did and squeezed it. it became a sword, only it really looked like a sword, a type of sword with a flaming blade. (A/N: for all those pplz out there who play Ever Quest think of the Soul Fire Sword, only realistic). she too lashed it out at air, but she put so much energy into it, it lashed out to two inches from Nappa's left foot.

Nappa look at the scorch mark, then at his foot, and then at Heta. "You damn Brat! How dare you threaten a superior!" Nappa howled as he walked up to her. Vegeta sat quietly as he watched to see how she would respond. "It's not my fault you wouldn't move you Big Ape!" she yelled completely forgetting she was supposed to respect the Neanderthal in front of her. "Why you little insignificant piece of slave trash! how dare you so freely disrespect me! for that you will pay!" he screamed as he lunged at her a white aura around him. by now the Orange Collars had all scrambled as far away from Heta and Nappa as possible, all but Freth. "Sir it would not do well to kill the Prince's personal slave when he sits not a Hectometer away." Freth said calmly as he lazily looked at Nappa knowing later that he would get a beating he would never forget.

Nappa seemed to remember that indeed Prince Vegeta was sitting there just waiting for Nappa to give him a reason to beat him to a bloody pulp. 'ThankyouThankyouTHANKYOU!!!!!!!' Heta thought and Freth responded with a smile in her direction. "sorry sir. i guess i just lost myself for a minute there." she said spitting the word 'sir' like it was acid on her lips.

Smothered chuckling was heard behind Nappa as Prince Vegeta came walking up. "Nappa. I'm ashamed to have you in my sights. getting pissed at a girl much smaller than yourself for just a few choice words." He then turned serious, " and if I find this brat here," he said referring to Freth, " has even a red mark on his body then you will be treated worse than the Trash Slaves." with that he headed for the door with a shocked Heta close behind.
