impossible."You have to hold out against my son for 20 minutes, right?" The king's voice boomed through the hall. René nodded and looked at Vegeta, who was certain of victory some distance away from him. The starting signal was given and Vegeta attacked.


The "newcomer" did well and only went down for the first time after 12 minutes. His friend quickly shouted encouraging words to him.


However, when he was lying on the floor for the seventh time in the 17 minutes and panting angrily with his arms, he slowly pushed himself up again - he had hardly been able to hand out, he usually had to take it - he felt Caro's gaze on his back. She had lifted her eyes and now looked around proudly again. René felt a strength grow within himself, as if someone were giving him his strength. He felt better, straightened up, and held out for the last three minutes. However, he also felt that Vegeta had not mobilized all strength and could actually have defeated him.Instead, the prince held back. René's pride was badly injured again and he was able to score a few good hits.


When the fight was over, Julian fell on his friend's neck, who almost lost his footing and fell to the ground. Vegeta stood firm and smiled: "Let him celebrate his victory now! After all, I didn't let him win for nothing. After all, he's now a member of the royal guard ...", he thought and looked at his opponent, the all sweaty and with the strength in the end sat on the floor and gasped. "But still ... why was he so mentally prepared for it? I'm sure that someone got help. But from whom?" He crossed his arms and looked over at his enemy Karo, who looked quite happy. for having suffered another defeat against him earlier. "Yes ... that will turn out later ...", he muttered and slowly walked over to his father, who had straightened up to look at.

"Kakarot? Broli? I am happy to announce that you are now members of the royal guarde.", The king's voice echoed through the hall, although the two mentioned had other things in mind. He glanced at his son who was standing next to him and mumbled: "You will have a lot of fun, I hope ..."


4th part


When Julian and René were shown into a room and left there alone, they were very happy to finally be alone again. They were also relieved to find that they were by no means locked up this time. They could go in and out as they pleased. The room was furnished like any normal living room on earth: there was a sofa, two armchairs and a table. Few pictures adorned the walls, but it was something.


René sank down on the sofa, exhausted. Julian, on the other hand, had to take another close look at the area before he could sit down.It was such a habit. "Hey, René come over here!" He called when he saw a door. René got up and went to the door into which Julian had already stuck his head. "It's kind of a bedroom," explained Julian. René had to laugh. Julian had pulled his face to his "I-am-terribly-important-and-know-everything" expression and looked very thoughtful. The two of them went in and noticed that there were new combat suits on the two beds, which René immediately grabbed one. Julian, however, had already spotted the next door and disappeared into it. "This is I would say n 'bathroom ..." he muttered and turned around. Then Julian had to laugh. "You have already found a new combat suit! Hopefully it is Vegeta-approved now!" René grinned. "Nah, you ... I think the combat suit that can withstand his attacks has yet to be invented!" Julian grinned back. “Well, you have to know!” Then they laughed for a long time, as they hadn't for a long time.

When the two fell asleep in the evening, René had a strange dream. Through him he learned a lot about the things he wanted to ask Bardock about. He saw how his father fled to Earth, spent many years there, and then was eventually brought back to the planet Vegeta. He also learned that Bardock had not fled alone, but that another Saiyan named Tarles had come to Earth with him. Tarle's son was Trunks known as Martin. Bardock, on the other hand, had two sons: René as Kakarot and Julian alias Broli.


He also learned other things, which he did not yet fully understand. But there was also a lot of confusion in between and some of the messages had mixed up, as if a television station had a disturbance and was broadcasting five programs at the same time on one program.


Julian also had dreams. He dreamed of the days he and Martin trained so hard just to face the Saiyan.He also saw Prince Vegeta and some other Saiyajin land on earth and go in search of his friend Martin. At that thought, he woke up from sleep and stared into the darkness. He thought he heard something, but dispelled the feeling of being watched by shaking his head violently and then turned on the other side.


It was quiet in the room. You could only hear René's faint breathing and the occasional gasping, and yet Julian couldn't sleep. He had the feeling that something strange was going to happen that night. He got up quietly and went into the living room - if you want to call it one - and opened one of the windows. It was strangely quiet outside, but Julian was all the more shocked when he heard a faint scratching above him. "Who's there?" He asked uncertainly. The scratching stopped. He concentrated. No, with the best will in the world he couldn't make out an aura. "Who's there?", he repeated and leaned a little further out of the window. Again there was no answer. Then the 'newcomer' had an idea. He said exaggeratedly loudly:" I must have just imagined it. I'd better go back to sleep ... "and pretended to close the window and go to bed. But instead of lying down again, he stood next to the window and tried to find an aura.


It seemed like an eternity to him, standing there so lonely and listening and he really wanted to go to bed, but then he heard this scratching again and was wide awake again. He waited until it was quite close to the window, then hit the window with full force against the wall. "Caution, caution! Not so stormy!", Laughed a girl's voice that he had heard somewhere before, "My God, you struck a lot! Thank God I was not between!" Julian was so taken aback that he could only bring out: "What are you doing up there anyway?“The girl didn't seem to have heard him.” Are you alone down there? "-" Yes, no ... So my friend is still sleeping. "- Who are you?" Came the next question. Julian was getting queasy "Well, well, um ... actually, Julian ..." - "Oh, oh ... So you're one of the newcomers? Make some space down there," she said muffled. Julian took a step back, amazed. Then a Saiyan girl swung through the window into the room and looked at him. Despite the twilight, you could see that she was grinning: "I think we already know each other a bit ..." When she noticed that Julian couldn't say anything, she sat down on an armchair and looked around. "It's comfortable here! I didn't even know that there was something like that in this prison!"


At that moment the door to the bedroom flew open and a beam of light fell inside. In the doorway, René was in a fighting stance. “Did we have any nightly visitors?” The girl got up and also went into a fighting stance.Then René paused. "I know this posture from somewhere ..." he muttered and switched on the light. For a brief moment all three were blinded and could not see anything. René was the first to recover. "I knew it! Caro!", He said and went back to normal. "What if I attack you now?" Asked the girl, who was still defensive. René shrugged his shoulders: “Why should you?” Caro shook his head. "You know less about Saiyan than I thought ..." she stated. Even so, she went back to her normal posture. "But listen!", She let her warning and piercing gaze wander from one to the other, "I'm not afraid of the prince! So if you tell him tomorrow that I was here, you can all lie down, because I don't mind. "She grinned again and shrugged her shoulders," But if you leave the light on there for a long time, Vegeta will know anyway ... "Julian quickly switched the light off again.

Everyone was silent for a while. Then René started another conversation: "Caro?" The only answer was a low "Hm?" , asked he. "Why do you want to know?" She asked as a counter-question. "Oh, just so ..." then the girl got quite angry. "I think you saw that, didn't you? I could never submit to someone like that! Never! And he knows that very well! That's why he seeks every opportunity to humiliate me!" She almost shouted. René nodded. "Yes, I know that. I feel the same way." He clenched his fists. “And if he thinks he managed to get me down, he cut himself!” “But why did you get a prescription from the Guarde? Do you even know how difficult the training is for the Guarden members?” René was silent , instead of him his friend spoke. "Yeah, well ... He threatened to destroy our planet and there ..." He was cut short."It's always the same with him. He always finds a way to get his warriors. But me ... He doesn't get me!", Karo said angrily and crossed his arms. "But why are you here then?" Julian dared to ask, but immediately regretted it. "For the same reason as you!", She snapped at him and her eyes sparkled angrily, but then she calmed down and lowered her gaze, "I have been too soft-hearted. I have sworn allegiance to the prince so that he might be in my planet." Leave it alone, but a few days ago the first warriors swarmed out to depopulate this planet too ... "Then she looked up again and proudly looked up again. "Although I am the only fighter in this castle, except for the princess, I was also one of the strongest servants the royal family has ever had! But that's over now! I'm going to hell for this would-be prince Make it hot! He's going to experience something! If ... "she fell silent and looked at the door."Do you hear that too?" She asked in a
