The filtered sun shone through the window and woke her religiously. She sat up and saw the monster sitting in the chair across from her. She felt wonderful and decided not to get into with him.
�Good morning my capturer.� She sang as she approached the bathroom for a quick shower. He was stunned. She actually said something nice other then a growl or insult. �Would you mind picking out something for me to wear today. If you want to spar, I�d be more then happy to accommodate.�
He was going nuts; she actually was being nice to him. He didn�t let his guard down, but instead pocketed this little information. He went over to the wardrobe and pulled out a pair of spandex shorts, a tank top and undergarments. He set them on the chair for her and leaned on the doorway. �So what�s with the happiness all of a sudden? Did you figure out a way to escape?�
She laughed, and it was like music to his ears. Such a beautiful laugh... She came out of the bathroom dried off with a towel wrapped around her head. He couldn�t believe how confident she was exposing herself. �Ah I see you decided to take me up on my offer.� She quickly got dressed and went in to comb her hair. Throwing the still wet hair into a ponytail, she bounced out of the bathroom still smiling. �Well shall we?�
He smiled warmly, and gestured for her to lead the way. She knew she was with the enemy, and that he watched her in her sleep and shower. Her nudity was a way to build up her defenses against him. She hated to do it for Goten should only be the one to ever gaze upon her, and felt like she was cheating on him. However Juun had spied on her before, and she decided to throw it in his face that he will never get her.
They entered the spacious room and prepared for battle. �So tell me lover.� That word made her cringe. But she decided to hold her tongue. �You have not eaten a thing since you�ve been here, but yet you seem to exude energy. How is this possible?�
She cracked a smirk at him before lunging. He caught her in mid air and threw her against a wall. She sprang back up into the air unscathed. �I choose not to reveal my secret, if that is okay with the Master.� She taunted, and he snarled at her. They exchanged kicks and punches that sometimes landed and sometime not. She was tiring quickly, and his heart beat never raised.
�It�s artificial, whatever it is. Your energy is decreasing rapidly. I choose to end this battle until you have eaten a proper meal.� He ordered and landed to the ground.
�Wussy.� She hissed. He allowed the insult to roll off him, as he gestured for her to come. She floated down to the ground and she followed him out. Only they didn�t go back to her chamber instead he led her further into the maze. �Where are we going?�
He ignored the question and kept walking with her sandwiched in between himself and the two guards. Juun pushed on two huge doors and walked into a dining area. �This is for you. Please. I assure you the food is not poisoned. Have a seat.� He respectfully waited for her to sit before he did so himself.
�You better hope it�s not drugged or I will starve myself to death. Got it?� He nodded his understanding and watched her slowly chew on her meal. Unknown to her the food was drugged, just enough to get the chemical into her system one meal at a time. The drug was to work gradually, and it was a mind-altering drug. It was in all of the food on the table, he even ate it knowing full well drugs had no effect on him no matter how high the dosage. But his obsession will be fully under his control by the time he has his meeting with Frieza. Maybe longer if she skips any more meals.
�So tell me Juunana-gou�.� She suddenly said to break the silence. �Why me?� She didn�t say it whiningly, instead more as a matter of fact. He smirked at her.
�I see. We want honesty. Well no harm in you knowing me, since I want to know you.� He now smiled. She ignored the lust in his eyes. �Your mother caught my eye before you were born. Unfortunately she was heavily bonded to that monkey father of yours. Then you came along, and you took my breath away. A younger version of the original beauty that stole my heart.�
�Um, this is supposed to win me over somehow? You insult my father, talk about lusting after my mother and this is supposed to do what to me? Help me out here.� She said sarcastically.
�You asked. I told.� He kept the smirk going. �Don�t you see Bra? I will give you the universe. Pick any planet you want to rule, and I will get it for you. I want you, and I want you happy. If it�s jewels you desire, I will get those too. Whatever your heart desires.�
�My heart desires to go home Juun. Why don�t you set me free?� She softened her eyes. She decided to use a different tactic, cajoling may work. �You want me happy? That can only be if I go home. It�s too late; my heart already belongs to someone else. You are a very beautiful man, and I can tell you don�t want to take something without its permission��
�Don�t patronize me bitch!� He spat at her and she fell over in her chair from the force of his anger. He came at her and she started to scoot back in fear. �I don�t want your pathetic compliments. I know what I am, and I know exactly what I want. You�re not mated or married to this guy so as far as I can see I still have a chance and I will win you.�
He grabbed her by the wrist and yanked her down the corridors, trying desperately to calm himself, but it wasn�t working. �I�.I�m sorry Juun. I thought we were just talking truthfully. Please, you�re hurting my wrists.� She felt herself powering up, and it lessened his grip. Her blue hair was turning yellow, her blue eyes turning jade. �I asked you to let go.� She jerked herself free and stood into a fighting stance. He smirked at her and the battle ensued.
They were in a corridor not much room to maneuver, but she didn�t care; she wanted his blood. The guards came running at full tilt and he shouted at them to back down. The two appeared and disappeared as they threw kicks and punches. He clipped her good in the gut, and she went sailing into the jagged walls making her yelp. He grinned evilly, as she now charged at him. Grunts and groans could be heard all over the palace as the two battled it out.
She threw a powerful blast and it hit him in the back. He was thrown onto the stone ground beneath them, and she continued with the hits one after the other. He lay motionless on the floor and she discontinued. She landed gently beside him and began kicking him hard in the ribs and chest. She threw another blast at close range and watched it hit him square in the back. One side of her mouth in an upturned grin, she turned her attention to the shocked guards and headed towards them.
�I defeated your Master, I believe that makes me the new ruler.� They quickly bowed down before her. �Get up and take me to the space ship. NOW!� She barked. She looked over her shoulder and saw Juun still sprawled on the ground. Then turned her attention back to the scrambling guards. �Pick up your pace dammit.� She hissed at them. They were all now at a dead run heading towards the docking bays.
They reached the bay and she eyed two ships. She looked around for possible pilots, because she knew she could not pilot one on her own. �Get me a pilot,� she barked, and the one guard ran off to get her request. She was about to board one of the ships when something cracked her over her head and she spiraled down into darkness. Juun caught her before she could hit the ground.
�Little vixen thought she had me.� He laughed and carried her back to her chamber. He was tempted to kiss her cheek and felt the softness against his lips. �You should have finished me off, lover. Now I will not be so lenient on you.� He wasn�t angry. In fact he was exhilarated by the turn of events. He gently laid her down in her bed and removed her tennis shoes and socks. He left her body clothed as he brought the blankets up to her chin. He lay beside her and watched as always.
�Mmmmm.� She moaned. She started to stir and he quickly flew off the bed and sat in his chair. Her eyes fluttered open and she felt the searing pain at the back of her head. She winced at the pain. �Kami what did you do to me?� She groaned knowing he was perched in his chair forever staring at her.
�Well lover, you tried to escape and I had to subdue you. I don�t suppose you would like some aspirin for that headache I�m sure you are feeling.� He smiled at her. She shook her head not wanting to risk it being something other than a harmless aspirin.
�Don�t you ever sleep?� She said through clenched teeth, for the talking she just did seared through her head.
�I do not require such an annoying time waster.� He whispered so not to further aggravate her headache.
�Why do you feel the need to watch me sleep every night? I mean that is really creepy you know. Back on Chikyuu they would lock you up in a padded cell and throw the key away.� Now she was grimacing from the pain.
�I watch you, because you are the most beautiful creature I have ever had the privilege of seeing. I enjoy every breath you take, every grunt, groan, moan, and mumble you do in your sleep.� He said still whispering.
�No offense, but you are just not right in the head. Now I�m going to sleep until this damned headache goes away. Okay?� She said groggily.
�Please. Sleep my angel.� He breathlessly whispered. He heard her breathing become shallow and he once again moved to the bed.
The next morning she woke to the wonderful smell of food. She sat up straight and saw that Juun was sitting at a small round table where two trays of food awaited them.
�How is your head?� He asked thoughtfully.
�Better, now I�m starved.� He gestured for him to join her. Still in yesterdays battle clothes, she carefully crept out of bed just incase that headache was still there just waiting to crumble her. She stood erect and no pain came tumbling down. She padded to the round table and sat down. She watched him eat his food, and after he sampled a few bites she switched the plates and smiled at him. He saw the look and she smiled. �Better safe then sorry.�
He nodded. �That was a most excellent performance you put on yesterday.� He watched her eyebrows furrow, and he wished he didn�t say anything.
�Yeah, specially when I was so close to escaping.� She suddenly lost her appetite and started to pick at her food. �Will I ever get to see my family again?�
He found a way to bring back her appetite. �Absolutely.� He said honestly. Her face brightened and she put a few bites in her mouth. The more she ate the better the drug got into her system. He could just inject a large dose in her while she was sleeping, but he rather enjoyed the suspense of watching it build.
�When?� She said bringing him out of his trance. He had to be careful, she was finally eating and he didn�t want to spoil it.
�Soon. It all depends on you.� She looked up at him and frowned, still putting the much-wanted food in her mouth. She had inhaled a good portion of her breakfast that now he could say whatever.
�How do you mean?�
�You will see them again when you announce your devoted love for me.� She gasped at this.
�You and your damned trickery. How dare you tease me like that? I try to be nice, and you just kick me down. I hate you Juun, and could never love a sick fuck like yourself.� She hissed and shoved away from the table. He sighed but didn�t get angry.
<><><><><>
It was a day before Frieza was supposed to visit. Juun could see the effects starting to take hold on Bra. She however couldn�t tell there were any differences. She woke up and felt the onset of her period coming and she sighed. �Wonderful.�
�What�s wrong?� He asked from his chair. �Ah. Never mind. I made sure you have supplies for that. They are by the toilet in a little cabinet.�
�Yeah I know, and thank you for pointing out my personal problems.� She growled. He raised his eyebrows and pursed his lips.
�I see we are not in a good mood today. Would it be safe to assume that you would prefer your privacy for the day?� He offered.
�Oh isn�t that so gentlemanly of you. Yeah, get the hell out.� She growled, and he obeyed. He had preparations to make anyway.
<><><><><>
Goten started bursting out laughing. His father ran into the room to see what the problem was. This was the first time Goten made any type of acknowledgement since the last day he had that crippling connection with Bra. After he blacked out, he just went into a catatonic state. Now he lay on his bed clutching his stomach and laughing in hysterics.
�GOTEN?� Goku shouted to his son. Trunks ran in too with great concern on his face as he watched his best friend slowly go insane. Both Goku and Trunks were yelling at Goten to try and reach him.
Finally Goten�s eyes seemed to start focusing, like he was actually looking at the people leaning over him instead of through them. He started busting out laughing again. Goku and Trunks waited until the laughing fit stopped.
�Bra�hahahahahahahahah� he�s had it now.� More laughter. They looked at him like he had lost it. They came to hate these connections because it seemed they only made things worse.
�Please Goten. What is going on?� Trunks urged.
�Trunks. Bra is going through PMS.� This sent Trunks into a roaring fit along with Goten again. Goku scratched his head with a dumfound look on his face.
�What�s PMS?� He grumbled but that only made the boys laugh harder. Goku shook his head and went to find his wife. Maybe she can fix whatever is driving these boys mad.
�Is that Goten laughing?� Chi-Chi asked as she saw her husband.
�Yes. I guess he�s snapped out of that state he was in. But now both Trunks and Goten are losing their sanity.� He looked back up towards the still bellowing laughter.
�What happened?� She asked ready to go up there.
�I guess Gohan had another connection. Then he went into hysterics saying something about Bra and PMS. What is PMS?� He pleaded to his wife.
�Oh Goku-chan.� She ruffled his hair and walked away.
Now he was getting angry. Why won�t anyone tell him what this is? Gohan walked through the door just in time.
�Gohan?� Goku snapped and held on to his son, determined not to let go until he got an answer to this infernal question.
�Is that Goten?� Gohan asked his wide-eyed father. Goku nodded and told him about the incident and the burning question. Gohan looked at his father like he was the one who was nuts.
�You are married, and mated to a women and you don�t know?� Gohan felt laughter coming through. �Father you�re just too much.� He slapped Goku on the back and headed upstairs to see his little brother. Soon he too was joining in the laughter.
Goku was angered now. He was determined to find out this answer if it killed him. �Vegeta will know,� Goku thought and he flew out of the house.
�Get the hell out of here Kakarrot.� Vegeta growled when Goku asked him the question. �I can�t risk your stupidity infecting me. You�re dangerous.� He spat at Goku.
�Bulma please. I�ve got this question and no-one will tell me the answer.� He begged her. She looked at her old friend sympathetically before returning to her work on the ship. �Promise me you won�t laugh, or get angry BEFORE giving me the answer.�
She crossed her heart, and nodded. He told her the question but nothing more about how it came about. She stopped her work and looked back up at him. She saw the seriousness and decided to tell him. Then his face grew even more complex. He told her about what Goten said, and she too began to laugh.
�It�s funny Goku, because Bra gets it severely and is almost too much to handle. Which means that android is going to have a rough time with her.� She said simply. �Now I�m sorry Goku-chan, but I have to get this ship done.�
Goku thanked her and quickly left. He still didn�t have a clue. He sighed and decided to drop it.

The guards fidgeted nervously as they heard the crashing in the chamber behind them. They had sent for the master to see if there was something he could do, risking their lives to do so. But they were afraid of that thing in there. Juun came up to the guards and humphed. �I will have your heads for this.� He growled then slowly opened the door. A crystal vase came within inches of his head and he felt the sting of a piece of glass as it embedded next to his eye. He quickly dodged out. �Kami what happened?� The guards shrugged. They all winced as she roared.
�She�s been doing that all day too.� One of the guards said.
�This is ridiculous.� Juun snorted and entered the room at lightning speed and crept up behind her. She was enraged. �What�s the matter Bra?� He whispered in her ear. She spun around and the look in her eyes gave him a start.
�I�ve got cramps.� She hissed through clenched teeth. �I need more glass to break. I love the sound.� She looked at the window and thought that would make a beautiful sound upon shattering. He saw what she was gleaming at and held her strongly to him. She writhed and kicked, to avail.
�If you break those windows, you will die immediately. Don�t you remember me telling you about the toxins out there?� She stopped struggling and started to whimper.
�I�I�m sorry.� She sobbed uncontrollably as she spun around in his arms and clutched at his chest, thinking it was Goten. When she didn�t feel the muscles that should have been there she looked up and saw Juun. His heart was beating fiercely as she clutched to him and he closed his eyes embracing her back. She smacked him hard across the face and started screaming. �What do you think your doing trying to trick me into thinking you� e Goten? You�re not him. You can never be him. You�re scrawny and cold. I hate you.� She seethed anger and hatred, which was now mixing with his own.
�You bitch.� He growled.
�BITCH? How dare you call me that you asshole?� She spat back at him. �Get out of here before I kill you.� She charged at him and they began to fight. It lasted all of 5 minutes before he had enough of her fury, and he managed to knock her out again. This time he let her fall to the ground and stay there.
The room was a wreck, and he had the servants come in and clean up around her.
He still had further preparations for Frieza�s arrival tomorrow, and he left that part of the palace. Still fuming he managed to calm down before reaching the bay. He sent for a medic to find out what the problem was and another one to make sure she didn�t die from a concussion.
�Female Saiyan�s are unfamiliar to us, because they didn�t exist when Gero created us. Therefore it is extremely difficult to say why it�s this severe. I�m not comfortable with giving her a musclerelaxer on top of the mind altering drug that she has been taking.� He added before the master could even suggest it. Juun dismissed the unhelpful medic and returned to the task at hand.
The other medic checked Bra�s wound at the back of her head, and determined that she was going to be all right. He did move her to the bed, for the cold stone floor was chilling her dangerously. He definitely saw what his master was seeing in her. She was breathtaking, and he felt the urge to protect her. Strange he�s never felt this way before, but there was something about this woman that was beckoning him to her. He felt himself leaning over to kiss her when a hand jerked him away. He looked at the Master eyes and shook with fear. �Had you touched her you would be dead. If I see you within eye sight of her I will put you down.� The medic nodded frantically and waited for Juun to set him on the ground
The room had been cleaned and he sat back in his chair and watched her protectively. He prayed that the hormone imbalance would be gone tomorrow or at least less severe. He sighed and rested his eyes.
�Damn you Juun. Are you determined to beat out my brains?� She growled as she rubbed the back of her head. He studied her to see how she was going to behave today. She didn�t seem as volatile, but she was not in a very good mood still. He also noticed that she had in fact started her period, and thought maybe that killed the fury.
�Well get showered and dressed. Frieza is coming here shortly, and you will be there by my side.� He went over to the wardrobe and picked out another shear like material that would be cover her only this time it wasn�t floor length, instead it would come just above her knees with a high slit up to her hip on the side. He grinned knowing that she was really going to hate this one.
�I don�t want to see Frieza.� She growled. Then she thought about it. Frieza would probably go and tell her family where she is, just to start some kind of war. Frieza was sick that way, and she was going to use that sickness to her advantage.
�Too bad. You�re going.� He said flatly, and was stunned when she didn�t protest further.
She looked at herself in the mirror and moaned. �Thanks a bunch for nothing.� She snarled at him. He laughed as he guided her out.
As they entered the large meeting room, Frieza was already there. He was draped over a chair as his tail swept lazily behind him. He had no intentions of standing until he saw the familiar blue haired woman. He slowly stood up and allowed his jaw to drop.
�I presume you are Frieza?� Juun said trying to avert the creature�s attention.
Frieza let out a half-snort half-laugh as he realized whom this was. �Ha. What is Vegeta�s mate doing here?� He never took his eyes off of Bra and she snarled at him. She sat down in a chair next to Juun, for that is what he wanted. Frieza slowly sank back to his chair, and once again positioned himself comfortably.
�I�m not Vegeta�s mate, you foul reptile; I�m his daughter.� She growled. Juun grabbed her arm to silence her and she yanked it away from him. Frieza saw the partially covered breast bounce with the jerking motion, and he shifted in his chair.
Frieza roared with laughter. Now he turned his glare to Juun. �Tell me Juun, is she here as a prisoner or on her own free will? This is highly intriguing.� He hissed in his normal tone.
Juun realized it was a mistake bringing her to this meeting and he snapped for the guards. �Take her back to the chamber.� He ordered.
The guard extended his hand to Bra, �My Lady?� He offered her assistance. She got up on her own, and there was a moment when Frieza got a look at her breast and he felt himself get excited. She was beautiful, much as her mother, but they were the key to any other man�s undoing for that would certainly power up the already strong Saiyan. Juun and Frieza watched Bra leave the room. Frieza started roaring with laughter.
�Seeing her loathing for you, tells me she is a prisoner here.� He started to tsk, and shook his head back and forth. �I would not want to be you when Vegeta finally does find his daughter.�
�Thank Kami you�re not me. I prefer not discuss my personal life, but rather this alliance you informed us about.� He didn�t want to continue under the presence of others, and he dismissed the rest of the counsel along with remaining guards. Now it was just he and Frieza.
�I�ve gathered information and I want a share of this planet. It has an excellent defense mechanism with that poisonous atmosphere.�
�Yes well I will make this easy for you. I could care less what happens to this shit hole. As far as I�m concerned you can have it along with the other androids. I�m only here for personal reasons, and once they are settled I will be leaving here for good.� He said matter of factly. Frieza raised the portion where his eyebrows would have been if he had any. �All I ask is that you allow me time to settle my affairs, and it�s all yours.�
�That�s it. No war, no catch?� Frieza hissed. Juun shook his head no. �Fine I will give you a month to get your��affairs� in order before I move in.� He mocked the word affairs with a snicker.
�That�s rather generous of you, considering I probably won�t need that long. Now I�m sure the other androids will try and struggle, but they are weak. You should have no problem taking care of them.� He added. �So will you be staying? Should I arrange for sleeping quarters?� He offered.
�No. I�ve got other missions to complete. I will return in a month regardless if your ready of not.� Frieza said and he left the room.
He boarded the mother ship with his crew and they shot off into the sky. Frieza sat in his control chair chewing over the new information. A smile crept up on his face, as a new plan came in to mind.
�Gunter?� He barked. Gunter knelt before Frieza awaiting his task. �I want you to take the pod and head to Chikyuu.� Gunters eyes widened, this was a suicide mission but knew to disobey would be a slow torturous death. He just hoped that the Saiyans would be quick about it. �I have a message for Kakarrot. Tell him Vegeta�s daughter is here on Tukay. He will need the coordinates and the planet�s atmospheric information. Make sure you see Kakarrot and not Vegeta.� He laughed thinking about Vegeta seeing Gunter and destroying him right then and there. He saw the confusion in his lackeys face. Then he snarled. �Do I have to spell this out for you? If you see Vegeta he will probably kill you before you can step out of your pod. Kakarrot has more restraint and he will ask questions first. Now hurry, and don�t fuck this up.�
Gunter reluctantly headed out and away from the mother ship. He had been trained to die for his master at any cost, and it wasn�t the death part that bothered him it was the process that mattered. He groaned as he headed for earth.
<><><><><>
Goku�s head snapped up from his big plate of rice when he felt the approach of a strange ship heading to earth. Without so much of a word he transported himself to the location where the ship would land. After 5 minutes, others started to land silently around him.
�Who is it?� Goten whispered to his father. Goku shrugged.
They watched the sky as they saw a flicker of light descending before them. The pod gently touched ground and the door slid open. Gunter saw the group glaring at him but he stayed strong. He knew one of them had to be Kakarrot, but he didn�t know which one.
�I have a message for Kakarrot.� Gunter shouted so they could hear him. Goku stepped forward with confidence.
�I am who you seek. What is your message?� Goku boomed. The guy approached slowly so not to alarm anyone. He looked at the others and saw the short spiky haired guy. He was the most intimidating guy out of the bunch and he determined that it must be the Vegeta his master warned him about.
�I need to speak to you in private.� Gunter said urgently. Goku walked past the messenger and away from the group. Gunter followed dutifully. When they had some distance between them and the others Goku turned around and waited for the message.
�I have been sent to tell you the whereabouts of Vegeta�s daughter.� He watched the Saiyan�s eyes grow from a scowl to wide. Goku looked over the short messenger at Vegeta, and Vegeta growled at the look. Gunter handed Goku a package. �This contains the coordinates, and the planets information that you will be needing.�
With that task done Gunter started to walk away. Goku put a hand on the messengers shoulder and felt him flinch. �Who sent you?� Gunter so did not want to answer that question.
�Frieza.� He sighed waiting for the deathblow.
�FRIEZA?� Goku roared. The others tensed at the name. �But he�s dead.�
�He was brought back, and that is all I know.� Gunter started again and this time Goku didn�t stop him.
�You tell Frieza if this is some sort of trap or joke he will be deathly sorry.� He watched Gunter take off in his space pod.
�Alright Kakarrot. What is this all about?� Vegeta demanded.
Goku told them about Bra�s whereabouts, and he watched Goten�s face brighten. He felt bad for his son; even though they now have the information they needed, will they still be able to save her in time? He pushed that thought away and focused on the information at hand.
�How do we know this isn�t some kind of trick? Why would Frieza help us? This just doesn�t make sense.� Vegeta growled.
�Who cares Vegeta? It�s more than what we got now, and it has to be investigated.� Goten barked back at Vegeta who in turn snarled. �Trunks. How much longer until that ship is ready?� All of a sudden he felt renewed hope, and he needed to take charge.
�Mom seems to think in a couple of days. She hired outside help to expedite the repair.� He watched Goten nod in approval, and was amused watching his friend as if he was in command.
Goten stayed with the ship around the clock, resting every now and then. He wanted to put pressure on the workers to not slack off, and remain diligent on the task at hand. Bulma, of course, ignored him when she worked. He felt like he was doing something, specially since it seems that he had no more connections with Bra and that was really bothering him.
