Turles was still asleep in Slug's lap, and Cargeso had managed to doze off in the peaceful atmosphere the two gave off. Slug was reading a book, and without looking, brought Cargeso closer to him. The younger namek Stirred, but something was oddly familiar about Slug. He felt... Safe. Calm, even. It was like deep down, he knew that Slug would protect him.

Slug noticed how easilly Cargeso fell back asleep, frowning. He looked around for time Patrollers, and then quickly took out a time scroll containing Cargeso's past. He opened it, and watched.

"Urk...... Ugh......."

It was around the time of the ancient wars on Namek. When clans fought for control of the Dragon Balls, Ravishing their Planet to it's demise. The sky was cloudy with smog and smoke, and it was difficult to breathe.

"Commander Slug, are you alright?" A namekian soldier asked, looking at a young Slug. His arm had been cut off, and he was still bleeding. "We need a medic!" The soldier shouted.

"Ggghkk..... I'll..... I'll be fine......!" Slug snapped.

"I'm here!" The medic said, just as an explosion went off. "Oh no.... I can't save him in time.... He's bled too much already."

"Dammit..... What do we do.....?"

"Back in the village.....  In my home...... Is the egg of my son....." Slug said. "His name is Cargeso. Make sure he knows what I did here when he hatches." The young Slug stood, flying into the battlefield, attacking enemy after enemy, until finally, the enemy nameks retreated. Slug was gone though. Too far gone.

As the Years passed, peace finally settled as Cargeso's clan moved to New Namek. The destruction on Namek was too great. The soldier had told the child that his father was one of many war hero's, and that he should be proud. But never once was his Father's name mentioned to him.

"I see. So..... That's why....." Slug said, putting away the scroll. "So you're my son in another world, huh? No wonder ya look so funny." He chuckled softly, rubbing Cargeso's head. He continued with his book, a small smile now on his face.
