Vegeta waited irritated for Goku to come back. He sat tapping the floor with his fingers. Suddenly footsteps were heard in the distance. The sound of crushed leaves and twigs made their way to his ear. Vegeta stretched and sat up expecting Kakarot come out from the forest.

Goku stepped into view; Vegeta admired his tall bulky frame from where he sat. The sayain was so very attractive. Vegeta smirked to himself, much better than Radditz. Goku had something about him that he liked. That innocence he gave off was refreshing, even though Vegeta knew he was far from it. That stupid look, even if he's actually quite smart. The contradictions in him were what made Vegeta like him, yet hate and loath him.

Vegeta stood as the taller sayain approached, “Where have you been Kakarot? Does it take you that long to hunt something?” Vegeta gave a questioning look at Goku's hands; they held nothing, no meat, no animal, nothing… “And apparently you still didn't get anything. How pathetic.”

Goku frowned with a smirk. He slowly walked towards the prince. Vegeta took a step back wearily. Something was different. He could see it in his eyes. They were cold. Ruthless eyes, that gave him chills. Vegeta saw the brown tail move behind him like a whip. A growl erupting from deep in Goku's throat was heard; soon one began in his own, as if warning the taller sayain to back off.

“HAH, you're the only pathetic one here… I'm a third class remember? And you're a prince yet look at who's got the higher power level.” Goku laughed loudly as he suddenly appeared in front of Vegeta.

Vegeta gasped and took a step back just to be grabbed by the taller male, whose hold on his upper arm would make anyone else cry out in pain. “Scared Vegeta?” Goku smirked.

Vegeta frowned why was Kakarot doing this? This wasn't the Kakarot he knew. “Why should I be?” Vegeta asked hiding his confusion as best he could. “I have no reason to fear you Kakarot. And what makes you bring all this up now?” Vegeta then powered up to super sayain. His golden hair shining in the sunlight. “If you're picking a fight then let's go!” Vegeta said as he tried to pry the hold from his upper arms.

“Trust me Vegeta, you're not worth fighting with, I probably wouldn't break a sweat. And how rude of you to speak out to someone higher then you. Maybe I should show you exactly why you should be scared,” Goku powered up to super sayain two, “No matter how much you power up Vegeta, you know I can double it. So how about you be a good prince and just give it up to me?” Kakarot shoved Vegeta against a tree the prince's head bounced slightly on the tree. The taller sayain kicked Vegeta's legs apart and paced his knee in between the prince's legs. Vegeta struggled but couldn't break free; baring his teeth he glared up at the lower class. Kakarot bent down so he could whisper into the small sayain's ear… “If you're a good prince and do as I say, then this won't hurt too much.” He whispered with a chuckle. The taller sayain rubbed his knee against Vegeta's groin painfully.

Vegeta's eye widened in surprise and terror. This could not be happening to him, not again. Flash backs of him as a child on Freeza's ship. What Freeza did to him, what some of the generals did to him. All of what was meant to break him to make him subdue, make him weak was coming back. All that he fought against to keep his sanity was coming to take over his body again. He remembered feeling like someone was tearing him from the inside. He remembered that laugh and how his screams had echoed on the walls, how they would bounce back to haunt him in his dreams. How he screamed for help and no one came to his aide, he got used to being quiet after a while; knowing no one was coming for him, so he would keep quiet now. He could almost feel the bleeding, the cold floor, the pain, and the shame coming back to him. His pride bruised forever in a secret he kept from everyone. Almost feel it all happening again.

Vegeta was shoved roughly to the ground. His legs spread apart in one brisk movement. His hands were immobile due to Kakarot's holds on his wrists. Vegeta thought to himself; this is not going to happen to me again, move body MOVE! Why won't I move? Vegeta regained some composure and managed to power up to level two, but it wasn't enough to stop the heavy sayain. Kakarot powered up to three gaining once again the upper hand. His long hair brushing against Vegeta's body slightly. Vegeta's eyes widened, this had to be Kakarot no other sayain could power up to level three. This realisation struck deep inside Vegeta and it hurt him. He thought Kakarot was different.

“What do you want from me? Why are you doing this Kakarot?” Vegeta asked, struggling to break free from the sayain's hold. He wrapped his legs around the larger sayain's waist and began to squeeze, but his efforts all in vain. Kakarot held both his wrists above his head with one hand and pried Vegeta's legs apart with the other. With the lose hand he grabbed Vegeta's tail and began to squeeze making the prince cry out in agony.

“I want to make sure that you know who the boss is between you and me. Goku obviously didn't teach you this, so I'll do the honours.” Kakarot gave a hard thrust, causing his hardness rub against the small sayain painfully, making Vegeta flinch and gasp slightly. “I need to take you now, so that you'll learn. It's the sayain thing to do. Right Vegeta?”

“You're not Kakarot! He would never stoop so low as this.” Vegeta said in between gasps of pain. The jolts of pain sent from his tail rocketed through his body, making it difficult to move. Vegeta gave one last struggle. He knew it was in vain. “He would never hurt anyone. He wouldn't act like a lowlife. He may be a third class but he's got more class then you.” Vegeta could feel tears streaming down his face. If this was Kakarot why would he do this? And if it wasn't him, why wasn't Kakarot back to save him. He felt pathetic to hope for Kakarot to save him, pathetic for crying. But all this just brought back memories of rape and betrayal. He needed Kakarot there and he was no where to be found. When you need him he's never there and when you don't he doesn't fuck off.

“Aww how touching. Very cute site I must say. Don't cry `Geta, I sure you'll like it too. And if you don't then that would be very unfortunate.” Kakarot licked one of the prince's tears away, as he ripped Vegeta's sayain suit. Exposing him to the moist warm air. Kakarot leaned down and planted a forceful kiss on Vegeta's lips. He let lose Vegeta's tail only to grope is backside. Vegeta began to growl even louder, bearing his teeth to the sayain above him. His breath hitched in his chest when he felt something prod at his entrance. Vegeta closed his eyes tight; he knew there was no way out for him. He braced himself for the pain, but nothing came.

Goku through the bore like animal over his shoulder and dragged the other along. He stopped at a near by lake. The water was fresh, and tasted the same to Goku's delight. He took a drink and began to head back. He knew that Vegeta would give him hell for taking so long. But the planet seemed so docile, so peaceful and calm he was almost certain nothing were to happen.

Goku retraced his steps, walking along the grass, a light breeze flowing through his messy main. He knew he was close, only one more layer of trees. Suddenly the tall sayain was brutally thrown out of his daze, as he heard a familiar voice struggle. It was Vegeta. He could hear another voice. Sounded familiar, so familiar in fact that it sounded like him.

Goku dropped the bores and ran out of the woods. He saw the tree Vegeta was leaning on before he quickly ran around to find something he couldn't understand. A sayain, with orange gi's, in super sayain 3 had Vegeta half naked pinned to the ground.

Goku's confusion was soon taken over by rage. No one has a right to touch his prince that way. He saw Vegeta struggling beneath the familiar sayain; Goku saw that it was going too far. Seeing nothing but red Goku powered up to super sayain three and dashed towards the sayain who held Vegeta to the ground. A powerful blast caught the sayain in the side sending him flying into the woods smashing trees along the way.

Vegeta opened his eyes and a flash of light made him close them again. He opened them to find a concerned face looking down at him. It was Kakarot. But which one was he? He was on top of Vegeta protectively, taking deep breaths. He shakily asked. “`Geta are you okay?”

Vegeta said nothing but stared at the sayain above him. He reached a gloved hand to his face and touched the larger sayain's cheek. “K… Kakarot?”

Vegeta could tell that Goku was angry. He would look down at him with concern and send dirty looks towards the forest where the `Other' Kakarot was, looks that he knew meant he wanted to kill.

Goku looked down at Vegeta when he felt the fabric of the glove touch his face. “What happened Vegeta? Who was he? Why was he doing this? Why didn't you do anything?”

All these questions slowly brought Vegeta back to reality. He quickly removed his hand from Goku's face. The prince enraged shouted at Goku. “WELL KAKAROT I DON'T KNOW IF YOU HAVE NOTICED BUT HE IS SUPER SAYAIN THREE WHAT DO YOU EXPECT! AND DO I LOOK FINE? YOU ARE KIND OF A BIT TOO LATE KAKAROT!” Vegeta growled and pushed against Goku's chest to get him off. “Get off of me you imbecile!” Vegeta stopped suddenly realising he was half naked and blushed. Then began to try and shove the protective sayain off. Goku wouldn't budge.

“Vegeta he didn't…” Goku swallowed, “Did he?”

Vegeta's hands rested on Goku's chest as he said, “No.” Goku let out a sigh of relief, he would hate for Vegeta to get hurt and him not be able to save him. Goku looked down at Vegeta, their eyes locked making Goku's face turn a light crimson. Vegeta's face became more flushed then before as Goku breathed, “I'm so glad.” Vegeta quickly cast his eyes away from Goku, this could be a trick. He could be another Kakarot that will try and take him against his will. Maybe he was playing nice and then he would attack after.

Vegeta frowned angrily and glared at the taller sayain. Goku raised his eye brows at this. Why was Vegeta so untrusting. He was the real Goku, couldn't he tell? Before he realised, Vegeta had been preparing a blast in between them. A stinging pain in his stomach told him Vegeta had let the blast go. Before he knew it he was hurtling through the air and landing hard on the ground near the boarders of the forest. Goku sat up confused and quickly looked around. Vegeta was confused and scared he could see it in his eyes. He turned his head and found the prince standing up. A blush crossed his cheeks as he saw another set of cheeks glistening under the many suns. Vegeta's tail wrapped it's self around his waist protectively. Suddenly a blast hit Goku on the back, his long blond hair slightly singed, he stood from the ground quickly and turned to find himself staring straight into his own eyes.

 

Vegeta gave one last glance at the double Goku scene, as he searched inside his armour in the many small pockets to find a capsule. He needed a new suit. He looked again at the two as they stood there staring at each other. Vegeta couldn't make out who the real one was especially now. He popped open the capsule and put on the new suit. As his head emerged from his new armour he could tell that the fight had began.

No matter how much Vegeta wanted to join in. He didn't know who the real Goku was so he wouldn't know which side to take. He stood there staring up at the two as fists and punches were traded and their bodies collided causing sparks of energy to fly.

 

Goku delivered a mighty punch to the other Goku hitting him hard in the face, sending him hurtling to the ground in front of Vegeta's feat. The prince jumped back suddenly not wanting to get crushed by an arm load of super sayain. There was a loud crashing sound as the body made contact with the dry earth. Then suddenly the body disappeared into smoke. Goku flew quickly down and landed by Vegeta's side. They both stood there staring at the place where the body once was. Goku was the first to speak up.

“There is something seriously wrong with this planet Vegeta.” Goku turned to face Vegeta and placed a hand on his shoulder. The taller sayain powered down as the long locks disappeared and what was blond became dark hair again.

Vegeta slapped Goku's hand off of his shoulder with a small growl. “How do I know you're the real Kakarot?”

Goku scratched the back of his head in thought; he stepped towards Vegeta and grabbed the prince's shoulders. Vegeta took a step back until he couldn't move because of the hold Goku had on him. The tall sayain pulled the prince towards himself. Vegeta was ready to power up and blast the tall sayain to smithereens when he felt his head gently touch the sayain's chest. Goku held Vegeta close in the tight embrace, a low rumble began in Goku's chest and his tail rapped around Vegeta's waist.

“I'm the real one Vegeta, because I would never do something like that to you. I have respect for you.” Goku said as he began to slowly run his fingers through the prince's hair. His other hand was placed firmly on Vegeta's back. The prince shut his eyes tightly. This couldn't be happening; he was lusting after Kakarot all this time to be almost raped by something that looked just like him. How ironic. And now he was held in an embrace be the taller sayain. Vegeta knew he was purring, but to be honest, he didn't care.

The sudden sounds of clapping made them both push each other away. Both flushed they looked around to where the clap had come from. Vegeta spotted someone come out from the woods, his tall shadow slowly emerging. Vegeta instantly went into fighting stance.

“Kakarot!” Vegeta called out for Goku to do the same. Goku stood beside his prince in his low stance. A gasp escaped Vegeta's lips, making the tall sayain turn to him. Vegeta had a look of pure shock upon his princely features. Goku's eyes widened in surprise as he heard what Vegeta had said.

“F-Father…?”

Goku's jaw dropped as he saw a taller and older version of Vegeta with a moustache and goatee. His armour was pure white and he wore a blood red cape, over his heart lay the symbol of planet Vegeta that Goku remembered seeing on Vegeta's armour. This armour however had large shoulder pads much like the one Vegeta wore when he and Goku first met on earth. Vegeta's father had dark brown hair unlike Vegeta's jet black.

The king stood in front of both if the sayains in the same place where the Goku impostor had disappeared. He crossed his arms over his chest and gave a hearty laugh.

“My, my Vegeta. Is he not a third class? I would expect you to be smarter than that. I am utterly disappointed in your despicable taste. Then again his tastes are probably what really matter. Right? He is stronger than you.” The king said as he looked down at Vegeta sometimes shooting Goku distasteful glances.

“What are you doing here? You died when the planet exploded.” Vegeta asked shakily.

“What does it matter, I'm here now, son.” King Vegeta gave a sarcastic laugh. “I don't think you're even worthy of that title. My son. HA! I would've expected something better Vegeta. And you let a third class surpass you!? Worst of all, the son of Bardock.” King Vegeta gave Goku a look as if he were something disgusting. Goku didn't pay much attention but stayed in his fighting stance… Bardock, so that was his biological father's name, he remembered how Freeza had said it back on namek. “How foolish of me. I left you because I thought that you would be able to take care of yourself and become powerful and defeat Freeza in behalf of your race…”

“You left me because you didn't care. You left me because I was a good trade with Freeza.” Vegeta shouted as he shook with rage, fists clenching. “Do not give me this sentimental bullshit, father.”

King Vegeta laughed at this; he unfolded his hands and stepped towards Vegeta. The prince stood his ground as his father drew nearer. He stopped so he was in arms length from the prince. “I think you're the sentimental one here Vegeta. Look at you, shaking with rage, almost in tears.” King Vegeta drew up his hand to touch his son's face, but a sudden blur of orange made the king freeze. Goku stood in between the king and the prince growling deep in his throat. The king drew back and took one step backwards.

“Wow Vegeta, this third class is protecting you! I never knew you needed a body guard Vegeta.” The king laughed.

“Step aside Kakarot. This is between me and my father.” Vegeta put a hand on Goku's arm and pushed him to the side slightly. Goku hesitated for a bit but moved sideways, not breaking eye contact with the king.

“I'm guessing his power level is beyond yours.” The king looked Goku up and down. He then looked at the prince, staring him in the eyes “Quite coincidently right before I emerge I see you both in an embrace. Is he your mate? Vegeta? I'm guessing he's the dominant male by the way he's protective. What a disgrace you are to the sayain race, a prince being the submissive mate! How pathetic.” King Vegeta grabbed the prince by the armour and brought him close so they were face to face. Goku growled and put a hand on King Vegeta's arm. The king gave Vegeta a questioning look. The prince spoke up.

“Stop it Kakarot. I said this is between my father and I. This has nothing to do with you. If you are going to keep barging in the leave.”

Goku hesitated then said. “Are you sure Vegeta? That you'll be okay?”

Vegeta roughly removed his father's hand from his armour and stepped back. “I'm sure Kakarot. NOW LEAVE!”

“But…”

“I SAID GO!”

Goku knew that the Vegeta could handle himself. But he didn't want anything to happen to him like what happened before. He would kill anyone who was to hurt Vegeta. The prince saw the turmoil inside the taller sayain. Vegeta could see that he was scared to leave him, thinking something else was to happen. He hated how Kakarot thought of him as some sort of defenceless child! He understood that what happened right before this, but that was no reason for the tall sayain to act that way.

“Kakarot. I'll be fine… go and fill the ship with water.”

“I…but…you…okay fine.” Goku knew that there was no reason to fight with Vegeta, arguing with the prince was useless. And he knew that the King wouldn't have such a high power-level anyways. Goku took off looking back slightly. He flew as fast as he could. The faster he would get to the ship the faster he would be able to go back to Vegeta.

 

“You intend to mate with him?” The deep raspy voice of the king made its ways to the prince's ears.

Vegeta took a step back, shaking his head. “No.”

“You liar. You know you can't get anything past me boy. So why try?” King Vegeta spoke up, his voice lowering to a terrifying deep. “You're nothing but a pathetic weakling. Unworthy of the title of Prince. Unworthy of being my son. A disgrace in the eyes of your ancestors.”

“I could careless.”

“Really? Then why is that you look so distraught? Tell me that boy.”

“Because you're something I buried a long time ago along with my hopes and dreams. Someone I never wanted to see again! I was seven. Why would you trade a child… YOUR child (no matter how strong) to a Changeling?”

“I thought you were strong I thought you could handle it.”

Vegeta couldn't take it anymore, he powered up to super sayain. He screamed in rage, “LIAR!”

King Vegeta's eyes widened as he saw his prince ascend. Vegeta continued, “You sent me away father, as a trade! You used me as bait, a distraction for Freeza to make him think he had the upper-hand. You Promised that you would come and retrieve me again! Yet I was left there and you never came. Did I really mean so little to you? What was all that talk of how you were so proud? Proud of what? TO HAVE THE BEST BAIT IN THE GALAXY!? You know nothing of what I went through. The abuse I had to endure, the constant reminder of how I had to subdue to a slithery Changeling all because my so called father gave me up in a TRADE! Now look at me. Do I look weak to you now? You could never even dream of reaching my power. Your own pathetic death at the hands of Freeza hurts your pride. And it hurts, doesn't it father? To have someone stronger than you, and have them rub it in and take advantage of you when you're down. Just like you did, just like how Freeza did, and many others. Well all of that made me stronger, so I guess I thank you for being such a traitor to your own son. Take one hard look at me because you will never see such a power-level in yourself!”

The king fearlessly, despite Vegeta at super sayain, picked him up by his armour straps and pushed him against a tree. Vegeta didn't move as his back made contact with the bark. He wanted to see what his father was going to do and say. He knew he had won this battle; he smirked inwardly as he could see the bubbling rage inside his father's eyes. His father spoke in a low deep voice, which Vegeta guessed was an attempt to intimidate him.

“You might be stronger and have a high power-level than me Vegeta, but you are not the strongest now are you? Kakarot is… a third class sayain! You were worthy of elite Vegeta at age four, and I don't know what happened. You used to bring pride to your people, but now if they were all to be alive you would bring nothing but shame. You're not even the alpha male in the small group of sayains you live with on that mud ball; you're nothing but what you were always meant to be…second best.”

Vegeta shook, he couldn't take it anymore. Two fast building ki-blasts, one began in each hand. The light caught the attention of the King he looked down at the blasts and then into Vegeta's eyes and said.

“You will never be worthy.” The king sent Vegeta a final smirk which the prince had inherited, as the blast drilled into his abdomen. The hands that held Vegeta's armour let go as Vegeta slid down the tree powering down. He stared at the lifeless body on the ground. A hand on his chest and one over his mouth. What have I done…? The familiar body before him disappeared into a puff of smoke, as Vegeta took a deep breath, thinking to himself. It's like these things that come up aren't real, their bodies just disappear, but it felt so real, his touch, that Kakarot's touch. Vegeta brought his knees up to his chest and sat holding himself, his tail wrapped around his leg reassuringly. Why was this happening? Why was his father back to haunt him? Why would he come back just to tell him how much he hated and loathed his own son? How pathetic the prince was. Vegeta clenched his fists and punched the ground in a burst of anger. He had to live with all these feelings all his life, and his father came along and just regurgitated everything he felt for himself. As if setting in stone the prince's unworthiness. Tears streamed down the handsome cheeks as he continued to punch the ground in rage. He wasn't good enough and never would be.

Vegeta brought his hands to his face and sobbed. His shoulders shook as he remembered all that he'd been through, this just brought back memories he had tired to hide. Both his father's appearance and the mysteriously evil Kakarot look-alike had brought to the surface many things he submerged deep in his soul. Vegeta jumped slightly as he felt a hand on his shoulder. He quickly wiped the tears and smacked the hand away.

Goku raised an eyebrow at the prince. He had found a reachable lake near the ship which his had set it up to start collecting. He had flown back as fast as his body could muster in the heat only to find the sayain prince in pieces on the floor. His shoulders hunched and shaking as if sobbing. This to some extent didn't surprise Goku; he took into accord the mind games the King was playing on Vegeta as if purposely to break him down. Goku knew that no matter what caring gesture he sent the prince's way he would just brush it away, like he did his hand as if his care for the prince meant a sign of weakness on Vegeta's part. Goku spoke up, knowing Vegeta's answer to his question.

“Why are you crying, Vegeta?”

Vegeta faced the tall sayain and briskly stood up. Shouting he said.

“I AM NOT CRYING YOU IDIOT!” Vegeta jumped into the air preparing for flight. He stopped in the air as if waiting for Goku to follow.

Goku flew up to stand beside the distraught prince. The prince sent Goku a dirty look and flew ahead of him towards the ship. Goku could see right through Vegeta's harshness. Behind the glare he saw the red eyes, and the hurt and sadness behind it. Goku sighed and followed his prince's lead to the ship. Why had everything taken a turn for the worst. Him and Vegeta were getting close and that was all taken away, and replaced by the prince's mistrust and fear of looking weak.

Goku flew faster so he and Vegeta were side by side. He sent a concerned look to the prince.

“WHAT ARE YOU STARING AT KAKAROT!?”

“I'm just worried about you Vegeta…”

Vegeta blushed slightly but sent the tall sayain a sad look, which he tried to hide with a glare.

“Well you have no reason to be, now leave me be!” Vegeta blasted off ahead again, a light blue beam of energy remaining where he flew.

Goku wanted to know what the King had done to Vegeta, but the prince looked so out of balance and unhappy that he thought otherwise. He could see that Vegeta needed rest. Goku whispered to himself as he flew after the short sayain.

“I think there is reason to worry…”
