It was a relatively peaceful day on the Planet Vegeta. Its natural beauty restored, a prospering King and Queen - the latter recently a mother. And even now, the King's sister was expecting children of her own. All was right with the world. On Planet New vegeta, a noble was on his knees going up and down on a red carpet that lead to the King's chair similar to praying but the King didn't even do a good deed for the man, people were going insane for a King. Guards that was on the sides of the red carpet, picked the man up from being on his knees to throw him back into the prison which was where he was suppose to be. "Please let me out I beg of you" complained the prisoner while shaking his whole body on the bars of the prison. The Guards pointed their sharp sticks at the prisoner neck, they pushed slowly into the neck. "Shut up or you will die!" shouted the Guard. The prisoner stepped away from the bars and sat on his bed with no covers or even pillows. Prison was hard in new vegeta for the prisoner; Bed time was early, Food time was early and he never got snacks, nobody to bunk up with him, and they couldn't read or write in the cellar because that was one way the man could send for reinforcements. The race of the prisoner was an Icer which not many people liked. "It is sleep time" shouted the Guards. Cold, painful, and very stressing days in the cellars of New vegeta it was for him when it was time to go to sleep on a hard mattress that had pee stains from another prisoner. "Please savior from the Icer planet, save me" whispered the prisoner while cuddled up on a pillow, sucking his thumb.
"I must say, I hadn't expected that King Yemma to be so cruel as to land me here." Akuhei said with bitterness as he phased into existence, appearing in the middle of the saiyan streets. "However, it might prove worthwhile after all." He was initially unnoticed, most likely the saiyans were all too preoccupied by their new self indulgent lifestyle to realise their destroyer was amongst them. He picked out a nearby New Vegeta Guard whose armour was the same colour as Akuhei's previous set. An unlikely coincidence, but he did not care about that. The saiyan was confused by his sudden levitation into the air, and found himself pulled towards the middle of the street, where his skull met Akuhei's tail. That got everyone's attention as Akuhei wiped off the blood, putting on the armour and stealing the saiyan's scouter in the process. "Its Akuhei! Run!" Some Guards screamed, fleeing in terror, whilst others decided to actually stick to their usual pride, and intended to fight him head on. Guess monkeys really did never learn. "Come at me then, if you think you'll even land a punch." Akuhei taunted them, getting the response he had expected to begin with. Each one of at least half a dozen Guards charged towards him, the first being taken off his feet by a sweeping kick from Akuhei, who then thrust his foot into the saiyan's stomach, slamming them into two saiyans behind them. The emperor would not give this kind of scum the honour of being beaten down by his hands. The third Guard to attack was dodged by Akuhei, his tail coiling around the saiyan's neck, and snapping it like a twig. The remaining two were somewhat more intelligent, and attempted rush Akuhei simultaneously. However it was obvious that they lacked combat experience, as they did not predict Akuhei's tail smacking them both in the face, causing them to flinch as he backflipped, then using his telekinesis to force both their heads into the ground, most likely killing them from the blow. Pressing the scouter, he scanned the surrounding area for high power levels, noting that almost all the strongest were bunched together. "Looks like that strong Guard is on the other side of the city. Good, he won't intefere with my fun just yet." Akuhei said, his fist clenching for a moment, before flying wide open as he fired a ki beam towards a nearby building, causing it to explode. The panicking screams of dying Guards met his ears, and he laughed at his own superiority. Much fun indeed, and he had yet to even get fully started.
Celeria was rushing more and more with each second. In the back of her mind, she left room for the possibility that what she could have been wrong, that her newly acute power level detection abilities were just playing tricks on her. However, when she hovered above the spot, her sight confirmed that which unnerved her mind. Akuhei is back. Instinctively, the corners of her lips arched into a grin, thinking how much trouble his sudden appearance had saved her. Finally meeting the point of descent, she abruptly stopped, and a sonic boom was audible as her aura burst into flames of ki before finally dissipating. Within a second, she landed to the ground, silently and gracefully - a few steps in front of Akuhei himself. For a moment, she just stared into his cold, red eyes. It had been ages since she had last seen those eyes and they still gave an unmistakable chill. But was it chill at the sight of him, or awareness of the colossal task before her - she did not bother to wonder. Her true nature kicked in, as well as the immediacy of executing her task. Her dark eyes shone with integrity as her hair waved slowly in the mild wind and sunlight reflected off her elaborate adornments. Without wasting a second, she proceeded confidently: "So very glad you're having your fun, but I'm afraid playtime is over. You will come with me and be urgently transported off the planet." She proceeded a few steps towards him and continued, urging him with every subsequent step. "You cannot even begin to fathom the extent of the powers currently in our path. There is no time. Therefore, this can be done in one of two ways; either you shall consent and follow me to the space port, or I will subdue you and carry you there myself. Your call... Lord Akuhei." It felt strange to address him in this way, after so many years of imposed servitude - but these were altogether different circumstances and the plan needed to be executed swiftly and without stirring much dust. Crossing her arms, she gave him a few seconds of time to compose himself and prepared for his reaction.
Akuhei did not initially realise the presence of the saiyan woman, a flaw that had nearly killed him many times before on that wretched planet of Namek. He would have to remedy that at some point. The woman descended in front of him, and only then did he recognise her. She was one of the more notable saiyans that had served him in the past. In fact, if he recalled correctly, she had once captured a particularly valuable planet, and he himself came to inspect the results. She knew how to act before one such as him, but he doubted that their past would change today's result. Best get ready to smack her head int- "So very glad you're having your fun, but I'm afraid playtime is over. You will come with me and be urgently transported off the planet." Oh? Leave already? Admittedly, he didn't like this planet all that much, but he was just getting started "You cannot even begin to fathom the extent of the powers currently in our path. There is no time. Therefore, this can be done in one of two ways; either you shall consent and follow me to the space port, or I will subdue you and carry you there myself. Your call... Lord Akuhei." "Good to see that someone around here knows how to show respect, but do not treat me for one second as if I am some child. I once held power that would dwarf that entire royal family combined, and I wouldn't even need 100% to do so. Unfortunately my mechanical body and time in the other world have deprived me of that power. And whether you be saiyan or not - my odds of survival are much better with than out here." Akuhei admitted, spotting a series of dots flying across the sky. "However I doubt they'll be so willing to let me go on my way." Meanwhile, at the spaceport, "Oh come on - just give me that damned cruiser. I already paid you!" Borosel yelled, smacking his first down on the front desk of the lobby.
"I am sorry sir, but we have to get the thing set up first. Installing these upgrades isn't a simple case of pressing a button you know."
"Install them faster then! Or should I go to your competitors instead?!"
Celeria was slightly surprised by the fact that the most feared being in the universe seemed to have lost its sharpness. She wondered if death had done this to him. However, she would not have time to ponder psychological alterations - she had felt several power levels approaching. Celeria understood that it was vital to subdue the event as much as possible. Thus, without a second thought, she disappeared from her current position and reappeared at Akuhei's side. Quickly motioning her toned arm around his waist, she disappeared once more. She felt remarkably odd being so close to him. But she knew that at this state, he would not be able to reach sufficient speed as to make a clear getaway. Thus, cloaking herself within her, now, charged and burning aura, Celeria had already blasted away from the city with Akuhei under her wing, before the Guards had touched down to examine the situation. Meanwhile, she tapped her scouter several times before she began: "Dandeli, Korlan, Pares, Torneh, Grape - it's in motion - deploy immediately and wait for further instructions upon reaching your destination. Over and out." She gazed straight ahead, as if avoiding to lower her gaze to meet the magnate who now rested in her circumstantial embrace. With a corner of her eye, she observed him briefly. The entire situation seemed borderline ridiculous to her, but she knew that all had do be done exactly thus. Her smirk returned as she reflected on the humorous side to the situation: "I do apologize for the... "inconvenience". We should arrive at any second."
Akuhei was primed and ready to fight if need be - his scouter indicated that such weaklings would be no match for him. However, the woman suddenly placed a arm around his waist - damn his inability to detect that sort of thing - and then covered him in her aura. She then dragged him along as she flew out of the city, the warlord struggling to get loose.
"You understand that I will only tolerate such humiliation to an extent correct? Anymore of this and you'll see what the other world is like for yourself." Akuhei snarled, how dare some monkey place her hand on him as if he were an infant?! Regardless, Akuhei somehow managed to tolerate the embarassing act for the journey to the spaceport. However it seemed that this woman had not calculated exactly how busy it would be. And to think, in all the crowds going to and from the spaceport, they somehow meant to find transportation. Frieza took the opportunity to force himself out of the female's clutches, and surveyed the area. "I hope you realise that there is no way we'll be able to sneak in past all those saiyans. Like it or not, some brute force is going to be required." Akuhei told Celeria, already priming a ball of ki. Back at the space port, "Hurry it up already!" Borosel yelled again, and again. Geez, 24 hour service began to sound more like the time it took instead the time it was open. "Calm yourself sir, all that requires finishing is the data installation, and that can be done whilst you're in flight." "Then give me the control gauntlet already." Borosel said, snatching the remote piece of hardware, and putting it on. Finally they could get a move on. "Obnoxious little alien..." Celeria thought to herself as he broke free. As he began to prepare an attack, Celeria quickly covered his palm with hers, effectively neutralizing the ki. She then looked down to him with a mortal seriousness in her eyes: "You can keep at your little dreams, but you are far from being a match for me, ungrateful mongrel. Be thankful I saved your self-absorbed hide. Now, there will be no crashing nor smashing. One wrong move would ruin the entire sequence of the plan. There is an entrance to the right. If all is going accordingly, our vessel should already be prepared." Cautiously, Celeria made her way around the building and entered through a secluded doorway. Upon entering, she beheld the ship she had requested Borosel to purchase. A satisfied grin had graced her crimson lips as she made a few steps forward. Finally, the long awaited plan would be set into motion.
Jinzon had remained standing for a short amount of time after she had left. He was unhappy at being left out in the open with something he wanted. And then he hated the fact he was underestimated and disregaurded. He had watched and listened to her give Borosel instructions and then heard what she said to him. That only made things worse for him. He was not going to let this go so easily. After all, he did make a promise to train her and he would keep to that promise. And he wanted her badly so that would keep him with her as well. He finally looked up and let some of his power flow through his body and he blasted off. He headed for the spaceport instead of following after her. He must be out of his mind to be doing this but he wanted something so badly that he would do anything to get it. He noted a disturbance in the city, the direction she had went and guessed it must be the lower classes having fun. All of the power levels were so low over that direction. He would have to talk to her again but this time....it would be mixed with ki blasts, fists and feet. Maybe then she would finally understand him and his desire. A short flight had him leaning against a wall, arms crossed as he watched Borosel embarass himself over the speed of the ships orders and readiness. The female neutralized Akuhei's attack with nothing but the palm of her hand. Whilst he did not show it, this worried Akuhei. He had after all met her personally years ago - her power level no higher than a few thousand! As she blathered on about her 'plan', Akuhei examined both his and her respective power levels, to see just how much of a difference there was. I'm just above 13,800, and that monkey is... 29000?! He was flabbergasted by the thought, and yet he somehow doubted the possibility of inaccuracy in the scouter, if she was hiding strength, then that meant the monkey was even more powerful. It was definite now, Yemma had been cruel after all. Akuhei reluctantly followed Celeria to the side entrance, floating silently through the door. The sight that emerged before him was a ship, ZX model if he recalled correctly. The things were still blueprints when he originally destroyed the planet, obviously someone had finished them. He'd personally prefer travelling around in his older ship, but that brat Vegeta destroyed its engine, ensuring its destruction along with Planet Namek. At least it wasn't a space pod, he would never bring himself down to the level of using those. Back at the port, Borosel was checking out all the settings on the gauntlet, and made sure to memorise them for later use. He looked up from the piece of hardware to see Jinzon there. "You'll really go anywhere for love won't you?" Borosel chuckled slightly as he went to pick up the ship, and saw that Celeria was already there, and from the looks of it, someone was with her. "Hey Celeria, whose the shri-"
The oaf had stopped in his tracks when he finally recognised Frieza, staggering back a bit.
"B-but... it can't be... he's..." "Dead? Oh don't worry, I'm quite alive, though as to how I will not reveal. I doubt you would believe it anyway." Akuhei stated, before the muscle bound monkey fell to his knees and bowed before the once mighty warlord. Wait a minute, didn't he recognise this one also? What was it now... Ah, of course! The one that slew roughly 20 or more civilizations if he recalled correctly. Borosel, practically a walking weapon of mass destruction. He had been put down by Akuhei personally when King Vegeta and some elite warriors attempted to rescue that worthless prince. Interesting, very interesting. Akuhei scanned the brute's power level, and found that this one at least, he could put down if necessary. At least there were some saiyans that weren't somehow overtaking his strength, even if it had been severely reduced recently. He had to retain some status of power after all. "Now to save my friend as I promised" said Akuhei. The King of New Vegeta wasn't even on the planet to take part in what was happening which was enough time for Akuhei to come in and attack the Guards and save his friend. Akuhei rushed towards the entrance of New Vegeta. Guards had their swords pointed at Akuhei, with a few poison bomb launchers in the back of them. "Nonsense I can easily kill these stupid Guards!" shouted Akuhei as he held one of his hands targeted on the Guards. A blast of Ki fired at the Guards and their poison launchers, the blasts rained hell from above. The Guards fell out onto the floor letting go of the key to the cellar. Akuhei still ran but in the middle of running he swooped up the keys. As Akuhei came near the cellar, the prisoner woke up fast in shock that his dream had came true. "I am here to save you" said Akuhei while unlocking the gate. A ship from Akuhei Hench man appeared to get them out before the King came. Once the king came, everything was trashed and his king treasures were stolen.
