Chapter 10

 

 

Everyone was eager to listen to Zarbon, he knew the story behind the hate between the Briefs and the Oujis. From what Bardock said, it was something to do with old Vegeta and Aclon, but beyond that, they didn't know anything. Zarbon was looking at Vegeta then smiled. “Vegeta - sama, didn't your father tell you anything?” asked Zarbon.

“No, he refused to talk to me about it.” Answered Vegeta. Zarbon crossed his arms and decided to tell them the story.

“This war goes when Koregane - sama and Hyoma - sama were in their early twenties.” Said Zarbon.

Koregane was Vegeta's grandfather, and Hyoma was Bulma's grandfather. Hyoma had an elder brother called Sando, who was the leader of Briefs clan in that time.

“Koregane and Hyoma were close friends, until one day Koregane told Hyoma that he wanted to ask his sister's hand for marriage. Hyoma got excited and told Koregane that he will tell his elder brother about the happy news, but Sando refused Koregane's ask. Koregane didn't give up and went personally to talk to Sando. They fought verbally with each other and Sando left Koregane behind. Koregane lost his mind and without a thought, he threw his sword towards him and stroked him from behind and killed him. After Hyoma knew what happened, he swore to avenge and attack Ouji clan. With that, the war started between the two clans, that's what my father told me.” Said Zarbon. All of them were listening quietly to let Zarbon finish his story.

“Among that, Koregane got married and had old Vegeta, and Hyoma did the same and had Aclon and Gheeta.” Continued Zarbon. “Twenty years later, Hyoma passed away and Aclon became the new leader. Koregane decided to put an end to the war by asking Gheeta's hand for his son Vegeta and Aclon accepted. I was then, in my early twenties when they decided to end the war. Everyone was happy and they had a big ceremony for that event. But it seemed not everyone was happy about it. Babidi, the black wizard of Briefs clan planed to destroy the peace unmorally.” Zarbon took a long breath and continued. “One day, old Vegeta and Gheeta came for a visit to Briefs mansion, and on that night, Babidi put a drug in Gheeta's drink, after she fell asleep, he took her to her bed and took off her clothes. He ordered a bribed guard to take off his clothes and share the bed with her. The moon was high that night, Aclon and old Vegeta were talking to each other, and when they were done talking, they went to their rooms.” Said Zarbon.

“There was when my father found Gheeta in bed with another man.” Assumed Vegeta. Zarbon nodded “He must have been inflamed.” Added Vegeta.

“He was ready to draw his sword and kill them both for the humiliation, but was stopped by Babidi!” said Zarbon “they both didn't notice that I was hiding near by and hearing everything.” Added Zarbon.

“What happened next?” asked Tomma.

“Babidi told him to disown her the following day in public, to make sure that she would not find a way out of what he knew. And old Vegeta followed his advice. So the next day, he confronted her, slandered her name and stroke her physically.” Said Zarbon.

“That's understandable, if my wife humiliated me like that, I'll do more than that.” Said Tomma. All of them nodded. “What happened next?” asked Juuhachigou.

“Aclon got angry from what he heard, and looked towards Gheeta who was crying with pain and hurt, she looked towards her brother and told him that was a lie, and she was innocent, Aclon ordered to investigate and in the end of the day they found that the drink that Gheeta used to drink with had been slipped with a drug. There I came in and told Aclon what I saw and heard. Of course the guard who was with Gheeta was killed to burry the truth. Aclon tried to explain to old Vegeta what really happened, but he was blinded by rage, the verbal fight turned quickly into a physical one, they drew their swords and clashed. In the beginning, Aclon was holding the upper hand and he cut old Vegeta through his chest. But suddenly, Gheeta came in between them, and in that time old Vegeta thrust his sword forward in a furry hopping to strike Aclon, but instead, he stroked Gheeta.” Another few moments of silence passed, Vegeta spoke “So, my father killed Gheeta, by accident?!”, Zarbon nodded. All of them were silent. Zarbon took a deep breath and continued “That wasn't all.” All of them looked towards him. “After old Vegeta killed Gheeta, they went back to Ouji hidden mountain. Aclon was very sad of his lost, and the first thing he did was order to exile Babidi and his family out of Briefs swastika valley. Babidi pleaded to give him time because his wife was in labor, so Aclon gave him only one day. In that night, there was a baby crying at the mansion's door; it's been a baby boy who was abandoned. They decided to adopt the boy and call him Yamcha. The next day, Babidi came and told Aclon that his wife died with her son while giving birth. Aclon nodded and ordered him to go.” Said Zarbon and sighed. “After six month of the accident, Koregane found a ten year old girl drowning in a lake, he jumped in the water and saved her and took her into his ward since she had no one. That girl was Sue.” Continued Zarbon.

“You mean, Bulma's mother? My grandfather was her ward?!” wondered Vegeta. Zarbon nodded and continued his story.

“After ten years of Gheeta's death, Koregane died and old Vegeta became the new leader of Ouji clan, he got married a while after that and had you, Vegeta - sama. In that time, Sue became a beautiful young girl. Old Vegeta and Sue loved each other like brothers and sisters; she actually used to call him ni - sama. And he was her new ward. Sue had a habit, she loved to go to wash herself in a lake, until one day, Aclon saw her, after that, a relationship formed between them, and fell in love with each other. She went to tell old Vegeta that she loved Aclon and wanted to marry him. Old Vegeta was inflamed with that news, history was repeating itself all again. He said no, but she insisted and defended her love. In the end, she married Aclon against old Vegeta's will.”

“That's why I didn't know Bulma's mother was my father's ward” said Vegeta.

“Nobody actually knew that, I think old Vegeta - sama forbade to tell us about it.” Said Bardock.

“After five years of that incident, your mother, Vegeta - sama, passed away. Old Vegeta got depressed, you were only five years old, he wanted someone to make it easy on him, and he yearned Sue, so he sent a message and told her what happened to him. In that time, Shidine was planning to lead the two clans to peace treaty and succeeded, so in that day, he called the two leaders with witnesses to sign a peace treaty and swear by blood for it. The two leaders went and signed on the treaty. Old Vegeta went back and arrived at his mansion at midday. He waited for Sue to come, but she didn't come. The next day, he knew that Sue had been killed.” Said Zarbon.

“Killed?! And you didn't know who murdered her?” asked Anahita.

“Nobody knew the truth, Aclon suspected old Vegeta, and old Vegeta suspected it was one of the Briefs, but I think it was Babidi or his comrade!” said Zarbon.

“Why do you suspect him?” said Vegeta.

“I think, Babidi wanted revenge, after all, because of Aclon, he lost his family, that's why I think its Babidi.” Explained Zarbon.

“And the rest of the story you all already know, that's the story behind the hate between the two clans. Its all in between love and hate!” said Zarbon. They all nodded and sighed.

“Ok old man, we're near to your stop.” Said Raditz.

“Thank you young man, thank you all. Please take care, and Anahita, please be careful my daughter.” Said Zarbon. Anahita hugged him “I will be, don't worry Zarbon, and thanks a lot for taking care of my sister and I all this time.” Said Anahita. “Yes, there is one more thing. I want to tell you to take Moria's road, I know it's precipitous and mountainous, but you'll buy time and arrive at night. ” Said Zarbon.

“Thank you Zarbon for everything, please take care of yourself.” Said Vegeta and shook Zarbon's hand. After Zarbon had left them, they went to Moria's road in full speed.

“This road is precipitous, Vegeta - sama! I don't think we can continue with the wagon to the end, we have to go by foot.” said Raditz and Vegeta agreed.

“Tomma, send Oboro to tell us where they are exactly.” Ordered Vegeta and he nodded.
