Chapter Four
"Sensors indicate a large spaceship to the starboard side," the computer declared.
Vegeta slowed down the ship and turned it to the right. He saw nothing. "Computer, how far away is this ship?" he growled.
"The unidentified spaceship is approximately fifteen miles away," the computer answered.
"Set a course straight for that ship," Vegeta said.
"Affirmative," the computer responded. The computer redirected the ship and flew toward the other ship.

Android 17 crawled out of the escape pod. They had landed on a desert planet. He stopped and waited for Bra to climb out.
"Perfect," Android 17 grumbled. "Just perfect. If I hadn't forgotten to purchase the game while I was at the mall, I wouldn't be in this mess."
"Quit your whining," Bra responded as she climbed out. "It could be worse. You could be back in your cell awaiting execution."
"So says the girl who didn't want to get in the pod because she'd be in such close contact with me," Android 17 responded. "You know, most girls would kill to be up close and personal with me."
"Well, I'm not just 'any girl,'" Bra responded.
Android 17 looked around. It was desert as far as the eye could see. "All right, what are we supposed to do now?" he wondered aloud.
Bra shrugged. "Find the nearest town, I guess."
"Just watch out for Tusken Raiders," Android 17 joked.
"Well, you'd better hope that your joints don't freeze up, C-3PO," Bra responded. "Or you'll end up a scrap heap in a Jawas' sandcrawler."
"Whatever," Android 17 said, blowing off that last remark. "Just no stopping in any cantinas."
"We are if there are any hot smugglers in there!" Bra responded.
Android 17 could not contain his laughter. "So now you're falling for a guy who's over sixty."
"Bite me!" Bra shouted back.

Vegeta had found the ship. It was in orbit around a yellow planet. Vegeta entered orbit around the planet and took out a device that Bulma had given him. It was based off Goku's Instant Transmission technique and would teleport Vegeta anywhere he wanted. He pressed a button and disappeared.
Vegeta found himself in a hallway of the ship. The first thing he saw was some sort of insignia. "So, it looks like the Laranian king is out for a joyride," Vegeta remarked. He then walked down the hall. There were several doors in the hallway, and it ended with a set of wooden doors with gold trim. This must be the crew's quarters, and the room with the big wooden doors must be the king's room. He was about to move on, but then he heard something coming from the other side. Vegeta pressed his ear to the door and listened.
"How dare you!" rang out a voice. Vegeta figured that it was the Laranian king. Then he heard the sound of somebody being hit. "How dare you interfere with my plans! That girl was to be my concubine! And the other guy deserved to be executed! You're lucky I don't execute you!"
"You won't execute me . . . because you have no other heir . . ." came a softer, weaker voice. Then, Vegeta heard another sickening thud.
"Curse you, boy! If it weren't for you none of this would have happened!" Then there was a pause. "Yes. All right. I'll be right there." There was a brief pause. "I need to take care of something, but I'll be back. You'd better be here or you'll be sorry!"
Vegeta quickly moved away from the door and hid behind a corner as the doors opened and someone walked out in the other direction. Remaining quiet, Vegeta slipped into the room.
What Vegeta saw shocked him. Here was nothing but a mere boy on his hands and knees, cuts and bruises all over him. From the looks of him, he seemed like the king's son.
Zephiel coughed up a few drops of blood. "Who . . . who are you?" he asked.
For once in his life, Vegeta felt sorry for the young man. "I'm Vegeta, prince of the Saiyans," he said, softening his gaze.
Zephiel's eyes widened. "The Saiyan prince? You mean . . . you came all this way . . . to find your daughter?"
This caught Vegeta's attention. "What? What do you know about my daughter?"
"My father . . . was the one who took your daughter," Zephiel answered. "He wanted her as a concubine."
Vegeta felt his temper rising. "And why is your father beating you?"
"Because I let your daughter escape," Zephiel answered.
Vegeta felt his blood boil. "Well, when he gets back I'll teach him a lesson!"
As if on cue, Mordorff walked in. He stopped at the sight of Vegeta. "What is the meaning of this?" he shouted.
Vegeta turned to the Laranian king with fury in his eyes. "You! You will pay for what you've done! Nobody makes a mockery of the Saiyan race and gets away with it!"
"What are you talking about?" Mordorff demanded.
"Now you will face the wrath of Vegeta, the prince of all Saiyans!" Vegeta yelled as he reached Super Saiyan.
"What are you talking about?" Mordorff repeated. "I haven't done anything to you!"
"Taking my daughter to be a concubine IS doing something to me!" Vegeta exclaimed.
Mordorff's gaze shifted to his son. "You little bastard!" he shouted. "You are going to get it!"
"No, you are!" Vegeta shouted. "I'm destroying this ship, and the boy is coming with me!"
Mordorff began laughing. "You really are a fool, Vegeta. You forget about my pow-"
Mordorff was interrupted by Vegeta's fist crashing into his jaw. Mordorff slumped to the ground, unconscious. "No, I didn't," Vegeta responded. "Unlike some people, I know what I'm doing." He picked Zephiel up by the waist and used the teleporter to warp back to his ship.
Back on his own ship, Vegeta put Zephiel down and walked up to the cockpit. He swivelled the ship around to point it at Mordorff's ship and fired the single laser cannon at its engines. Two of the engines blew up, sending the ship into a nosedive at the planet below.

Android 17 and Bra were walking along the sand. Suddenly, Seventeen felt something and looked up.
Bra noticed that Android 17 stopped walking. "What's up?" she asked.
"Someone just powered up," Android 17 responded. "It seems like they were in orbit."
Bra looked up; however, being unable to sense power levels, she could not tell anything. "Well, it's way up there, and we're way down here," she said. "Now let's go. I'm getting thirsty."
Android 17 sighed. He knew what he had to do, but he knew that neither of them would like it. He grabbed Bra and took off.
"HEY!" Bra shouted as she began to fidget. "Put me down!"
"Nothing doing," Android 17 responded. "This is a lot quicker." He felt Bra beginning to slip, so he move his right hand. Unfortunately for him, it moved onto her breasts.
"EEK!" Bra shrieked. She then slapped Android 17. "PERVERT!"
Android 17 realized what he had done, then moved his hand back down. "Accident. Won't happen again."
"Yeah, like I believe that!" Bra responded. "You know you want me. Too bad, because you can't have me."
"I never said that," Android 17 responded, "and I don't know how you got that idea into your thick skull."
"Gee, I don't know," Bra responded sarcastically, "maybe because YOU MOVED YOUR HAND ONTO MY CHEST?!!!"
Android 17 sighed. This was going to be a long trip.

Tons of sand and dirt flew up into the air as the Laranian ship crash-landed. The hatch slowly opened and two crew members carried the unconscious Mordorff out.
"Damn!" Vandash exclaimed. "Now we're stuck on this barren piece of rock!"
"Captain!" one soldier shouted. "It's very much possible that the prisoners are on this planet! There is no way their escape pod would escape this planet's gravitational pull!"
"Excellent!" Vandash responded. "Men, let's move out!"
