Fanfic: Der Kampf um die Königswürde -Teil 3

Chapter: The struggle for royal dignity - part 3

And here now the third part. Since I am currently writing on two FFs at the same time, the sequels are currently taking a little longer.




"Do you have time right now, sister?"


"For you always. What's on your mind?"


"Grrmmm!"


"What is it? Don't you like it when I'm kind to you?"


"Your behavior ... it is so atypical for a Sayajin!"


"Vegeta! Touch your own nose! You're not much different now either!"


"Nonsense! - But let's leave that! I want to show you something."


Vegatta followed your brother into his room.


"What did you want to show me, brother?"


Vegeta had opened one of the drawers of his dresser and was pulling out a dark box.


"This one."


The Sayajin Prince opened the box and showed his sister the contents. A silver medallion on a silver chain with a blood red stone in the middle.


"That is the royal seal. Our father wore it last.The blood-red stone is Sayan's eye. "


"I remember. Where did you get it from?"


"I found it on my travels when I was out training in space. That was before Trunks was born. At a trading post, I came across some of Freezer's old troops who played for it!"


"And of course you are immediately in between!"


"Of course! The guys were pretty fed up and didn't make any problems handing me the seal."


"I think so. And you must have punished her appropriately for this outrage!"


"Of course! There wasn't much left of them at the end!"


Vegatta sighed.


"I will give the seal to our mother when we are in Burai. She should then hand it over to the winner of our battle duel when he takes over his office as king or queen." Vegeta explained and closed the box again. Then he put it back in its place.

"Now tell me about your life, brother. It was certainly not easy for you as a prince to be under the command of another prince."


"That's true. Freezer, the son of King Cold, taught me painfully more than once where my place was!"


"The big scar across your chest?"


Vegeta nodded.


The two siblings went into the living room and made themselves comfortable on the sofa. After a while, Trunks and Son-Goten, who had come over to play, joined them and silently listened to Vegeta's story.


"One day Freezer came to Vegeta with his entourage and offered us his partnership as an ally in the conquest and trade with planets. But in reality he had completely different plans for us! He brought us more and more under his control! especially when he took me on his ship and threatened to kill our father if I didn't do what he wanted!Freezer was a powerful opponent at the time, but when we realized it it was too late. So he had our father in his hand, because he threatened him too, that he would kill me if he didn't respond to his demands! "Said Vegeta.


"You were the most precious thing he had for him, his inheritance." noticed the sayajin princess.


"Just like him for me. His loss hit me hardest."


"I think our father loved you more from the beginning. Because he always wanted a male heir. I remember, although I was the firstborn, father took you out of the cradle first and held you in his arms. I was just incidental. "


"Then you wanted to kill me out of jealousy?"


"Maybe. But it is also our aggressive heritage and the law of the strongest that drove me to do this. You were just a competitor to me, I didn't want to share our mother's love with you, I wanted her all to myself."

"Young hyenas behave the same way. If more than one cub is born, the stronger of the young bites and kicks after a few days, usually the larger female, the younger sibling or siblings until they become weaker and weaker and die!" explained Son-Goths. "So that all care and nourishment goes to itself and it becomes strong enough to survive in the wild! I saw that on TV! And I thought it was mean!"


Trunks nodded in agreement.


"The struggle for survival in nature is usually tough and cruel, my little one! And sometimes that applies to us too." noticed Vegeta and thought of the carnage Boo had wrought on earth back then.


"Twin births are very rare with Sayajin. But after my deed my mother found old tradition that in such cases the stronger sibling killed the weaker one if they were not separated in time! A curse of our aggressiveness! It only lasts until the end of the Baby age.With siblings of different ages there is no such competition, only with multiple births, "explained Vegatta.


"In any case, I had to endure a lot under Freezer's command! When I was about eight years old, I was stationed on his base with Nappa and Raddiz after the destruction of our planet. He believed that the three of us were the last of our people and he wanted us for use his plans to become the most powerful in the universe. It was a terrible time! Without parents, only with Nappa and Raddiz as close people and constantly exposed to the arbitrariness of Freezer's gang! Especially when I was little, they allowed themselves that way some bad jokes with me! If we had resisted, we would have felt Freezer's anger! He was much stronger than us at the time and also had his "Ginyu Command" behind him and many other loyal subordinates, who at Freezer's orders immediately would have struck and with us Sayajin it would have been over!

Especially the Ginyu commando always targeted me! As a child I had often secretly observed them; they enjoyed a special status at Freezer. So there was no point in complaining, this dog let his commander go through everything with a smile! Sure, to make it clear to me where my place was and to nip my insubordination in the bud! So when I was a child I often had to do menial jobs for Commander Ginyu and his gang and they treated me like dirt! "Vegeta growled and clenched his fists. Trunks, who was sitting next to his father, put his hand sympathetically on his trembling with anger, Right fist. The Sayajin still remembered exactly how as a little boy Commander Ginyu had often grabbed his hair, once even his tail, and dragged him along when he was supposed to do something for him. Freezer had simply approved of it and even enjoyed it Even with a beating they didn't skimp, which was another reason why Vegeta had become such a tough and merciless warrior.

"When I was finally allowed to go back to Nappa and Raddiz, I mostly took out my pent-up anger on you. Then I withdrew to the furthest corner of the base and let my tears run free. I vowed to take bitter revenge one day! I wanted to win Freezer's trust first, and then strike at the crucial moment and get back at everyone who had humiliated me so much, so I trained every day to get stronger and as I grew up and had a certain standing among Freezer's people over the years , the treatment got a little better too. Only the Ginyu guys were still teasing me. But they all got what they deserved! " Vegeta continued grimly.


"You really didn't have a lovely childhood! Mine was tough too, but I wasn't exposed to the whims of a Freezer and his subordinates! And I had our mother with her love and care, who had always watched over me, no matter where I was .Believe me, she thought of you a lot. She would have liked to see us grow up together. "Vegatta sighed." Do you want to continue reporting or should we continue tomorrow? "


"Why stop? Now I'm really on the move!" Vegeta noticed and smiled at his son who was still holding his hand. The Sayajin princess felt her brother relax and become calmer again.


"This family is really the best for him." she thought. "A wonderful woman who forgives his quirks again and again and a wonderful son who looks up to him and is proud of his father. What more does he want?"




The two siblings spent telling stories until the evening. Trunks and Goten had gone back to play after a while.


"So that's how it was. You really experienced a lot! And fought many fights that made you get stronger and stronger!" noted Vegatta. "You really are a true Sayajin of the old order! But if you defeat me and become king of Burai, our people will never accept it if you would reintroduce this old order!"

Vegeta sighed.


"I think I couldn't do that anymore. Over the years I have grown older and also tamer. I owe that mainly to Bulma."


"Believe me, it's better that way. The time of cruel conquests is over for us! You can fight for better things."




Vegeta spent the night in his room again. His pride still forbade him to simply return to Bulma's side. But he set his alarm clock at half past six in the morning, because he wanted to wake up earlier than the others in order to be able to realize his plan ...




With the first buzz of the alarm clock, Vegeta crawled out of bed and quietly disappeared into the kitchen. The morning ritual of clearing the fridge began again, but this time he had something special to do. Mrs. Briefs had a trolley in one corner. Vegeta loaded him up with loads of sandwiches, two large pots of tea, fried sausages and all the other things that were part of a hearty breakfast.He even tried fried eggs, which he did quite well.


"So.-Do I have everything? I think so. Because let's go."


Slowly and quietly he pushed the serving trolley out of the kitchen and hoped that no early riser would spot him. In between he nibbled on the sausages. He carried the car up the stairs to the bedrooms and guest rooms, which was no problem given his strength.


Finally he stood in front of the door of Bulma's bedroom, which he usually shared with her when there was not another argument. He opened the door quietly and pushed the fully loaded car into the room. The curtains were still drawn and Bulma was still sound asleep. Vegeta parked the car next to your
