Raditz didn't answer. "ANSWER ME RADITZ!!" Vegeta yelled into the communicator. "Uhhh...there is only one saiyan on this planet Vegeta, but I don't know his name..." the man said. Vegeta felt his heart rate increase and his palms became sweaty. "Well then, ASK FOR HIS NAME!!"

Raditz sighed. He was right above the unknown saiyans home. The place reeked of his scent, and the scent of a younger saiyan. The man's offspring perhaps?
"Hmm...his name huh? I doubt he'd tell me willingly..." he thought. An approaching power source told him he had about ten seconds.
"Alright! I have an idea!" The man dove forward and crashed through the roof of the house. He heard a scream and cry of fright. Bingo!
He grabbed the saiyan child and held a hand over the child's mouth before jumping up and returning to his position in the sky. He was met with the angry glare of the saiyan. "Ah! You're finally here! So tell me...is this your son?" Raditz held the child outward by holding onto the back of the boys shirt.
Goku could swear he broke a tooth. Gohan looked terrified and was on the verge of tears. "I take it as a yes? Alright! Oh! I have a question for you...what's your name?" Goku was too angry to answer. Raditz smirked. "So it's a guessing game? Goodie! How about this? If I answer wrong...you have to kill a human, okay?"
"My name is Goku!" Goku refused to participate in killing humans.
"D-D-Daddy!!" Gohan began to struggle. "Hmm...his name is Goku. What? Well, black hair and eyes...like practically every saiyan...seems like a pathetic thing," Raditz said into his scouter.
Meanwhile, Goku felt electricity course through his veins with every heart beat. He needed Gohan back...NOW!!

Vegeta frowned. According to Raditz, the unknown saiyan had black hair and eyes. 'Could it be Kakkarot? No...it couldn't be...' the prince thought. The saiyans head lit up with an idea. "Raditz...get him angry. I don't care what you have to do...just get him mad enough so he can overcharge his energy," Vegeta ordered. If this was his dead bondmate, then Vegeta would be able to easily pick up on the surge of emotions.
"Perhaps I'm not over him at all...this is what you make me do Kakkarot..." Vegeta mumbled.
For the past years, the prince managed to direct any feelings towards his supposed dead mate towards the back of his mind. He assumed he was successful since he downright became insane, but the thought that Kakkarot might be alive seemed to bring forth all those feelings. Feelings that should've been erased along with the boys death.
"Hehe! It worked your highness! All I had to do was beat his little brat!"
Vegeta waited. He waited for any slight change in his heart beat or in take of breath, but he felt nothing.
The prince felt his hope shatter and be replaced with something darker. Despair.
"Of course...carry on with your mission Raditz. I want it done by tommorow. Understan--Ngh!!"
The prince dropped to his knees. A sharp intake of air made his hand fly to his chest and make a clentching motion. Adrenaline coured through his veins and his stomach violently churn. An internal heat began to bubble just beneath his skin and it all centered in his aching chest.
"K-K-Kakkarot..." Vegeta gasped.
The moment the name left his lips, his ears began to ring and his sight left him. Everything turned black, until until a distant speck of color evolved in his blind gaze and suddenly exploded. The prince was no longer in his study, but in some odd planet. The sky was sickeningly blue and the ground seemed to glow green with all the plant life.
