[Your POV]

It was dark. Pitch black. Emptiness... "Where... Where am I?" I swirled my head around. I was stood on a surface however it still looked like an empty void... something was- wrong. A sudden purple mist appeared and I jumped at the sight... Frieza? A demon? A monster? All of the above?! I was lost, confused, scared... "Greetings... Saiyan." A deep unrecognisable voice echoed. "Who- what are you?" I shuffled back away from the mysterious form. "That my dear is none of your concern, for now. You have been chosen to be my successor and I have to make sure you stay on line... Stop holding back." I store wide eyed, confused. I have so many questions... "Successor... what do you mean- successor? Successor of what?" So many things ran through my head It began to hurt.

"You're quite a naïve one aren't you? You'll fully understand when the time comes. You have around 16 years in... what planet is it called again..." He trailed off. "Earth I believe." Another softer voice could be heard. "Ah yes, Earth. Your time will come. You have some big shoes to fill Y/N... your universe is counting on it..." He lead on. I shook my head in frustration.

"I don't understand. I can't do anything like this... I'm not strong, not powerful- I..."

"Well well Y/N. Don't get so worked up. You'll have to show that through destruction. You'll be remembered and looked up to by the people around you. Or feared I guess if that is what you prefer, whatever tickles your fancy."

"I- Don't I get a say to what happens to me!? Don't I get a choice?"

"No. This is your destiny. You do not choose. You were chosen."

"What is wrong with you woman?!" Vegeta shook my limp body and I was back in the dark cave. "I- what... I was just-" That wasn't a dream... that felt to real. "What was all that about?" Vegeta grabbed me onto my feet by my arm and I store at my hands for a little while till I replied with "It... It was just a bad dream..." It was too much to explain in the moment. He'd tell me it was a nightmare anyways, it's not like he'd really care about it. "Ugh, whatever. Come on. We have dragon balls to seek. And don't you worry about Dodoria stealing you away." He laughed as he blasted off and I followed. "I've gotten a 4 star dragon ball while you've been dead." He mocked you sleeping. "Were and how did you get it?" Did I really want the answer. "You're too soft. Better If I keep it to myself." He smirked.

I halted. "Why am I even here then?! Why do you want me around If I'm so weak, useless, soft- Why do you even want me to be on your side? You knew I was happy at Earth." I almost ripped out my hair in anger. He turned to face me, eyes wide and stunned by the sudden switch. "I never said you were weak or useless. Is that really how low you think of yourself." He raised a brow. "Why do you want me around?" I asked. "Why did you abandon us?" He replied. I looked at him more furious.

"You know what? We aren't getting anywhere. Who is 'us' who else did I apparently abandon? You're allowed to speak for yourself, you can speak about your own feelings Vegeta. This is why you push people away." I clenched my fists. "I don't need this shit." He flew off in a matter of seconds.

"Hypocrite." I turned to fly the opposite direction. 'What a fool I am to even think for a moment things could be normal between us. He's too much, I'm too little... I look at you and I see nothing.'

After a long fly, I felt a power level. It felt familiar... wait... Is that... Krillin?! I quicklly moved down to seek for a life form. "Krillin? Krillin!" I quitly shouted incase I brought unwanted attention. After a bit of calling a grip on my armour pulled me arround a rock and he was here! Krillin!

"Oh my god Y/N! It's really you! You look-" He was excited however his eyes were glued to your armour. "One of them... I know. But don't worry I have no intentions of even talking to them." I looked off into the distance. "You haven't seen Frieza yet have you?" He asked concerned. "No. Not yet. "

"Oh Dende, this is Y/N. A Saiyan, however she's nothing like Vegeta." I turned to look at the small Namek. "Nothing like Vegeta." I repeated Krillin, looking down in disappointment, I took the argument personally. He just can't give his ego a break. "Speaking of Vegeta. Everyone stay quiet and stand low. He's coming this way." Krillin informed me and I felt Vegeta reproaching. We all masked our power levels. 'He came back...?' However as soon as that thought entered my head, he quickly took a sharp U turn. "He's heading towards a huge power level." Krillin seemed uncomfortable by the amount of high levelled warriors roamed the area. I felt it and I knew it was Zarbon. It had to be.

The three of us had left our spot and we were distracted by the strong blast from afar. It was huge. It was Vegeta. He was fighting Zarbon. I could recognise a fight like that from miles away. "Those power levels are crazy." Krillin added fuel to the fire of Dende being scared. I looked at his mortified body. "Dende, I promise you whatever happens on this planet, I will wish for your lives to be back to normal. I swear to you, no matter what, you'll be okay." I smiled and he seemed to calm down and nodded in return. "Thank you so much Miss Y/N. You truly are nothing like him." He looked back at the blast that was slowly withering away. Krillin grabbed Dende and we started flying away. We were on our way to find the rest of the dragon balls. We can save the reunion and catchup till later, it will be better when the rest of the team are together.
