Chapter 1:
Over millions and millions of light years away there is a small planet known as Vejiitasei on which a young, bold King waits patiently, or as patiently as a Saiyan gets, to hear the condition of his mate.
Suddenly, a female Saiyan, with short black hair and brown eyes, dressed in a nursemaid's uniform, enters the throne room with news of the queen. "Your Majesty." The nursemaid Saiyan bowed down to him.
"Yes, what news do you have for me, nursemaid Barruba," said King Vegeta with some impatience.
"It's been done," Barruba replied with respect. "The queen has given birth to twins." She finished the report.
"Twins?!" King Vegeta repeated. This bit of the news surprised the king. They were expecting to have only one child.
"Yes my king, two beautiful children," Barruba acknowledge. "But sadly, there was great price to it," she added grimly.
"What kind of price," The king inquired, beads of sweat gathering upon his brow.
"Queen Cyana sacrificed her life for theirs."
King Vegeta responded with a shocking gasp. He didn't see this one coming. His mate died of childbirth.
A remorse look flashed across the King's face; he quickly wiped it off so that his people wouldn't suspect a thing. "Lead me to my wife and newborn children at once," he ordered.
"As you wish, your highness." The nursemaid Saiyan obeyed and turned around to walk back where she came from with King Vegeta following closely behind.
Meanwhile in the nursery, two assistant Saiyan nursemaids tended to the twins. "The boy has the cry of a great warrior," said one assistant nursemaid Saiyan as she held the crying Saiyan prince.
"Yes, and the girl is indeed a warrior princess, just like her mother," replied the other with mournful voice, holding the crying saiyan princess.
"Aye, 'tis a gravely price that the Queen has to pay for the lives of these children," quoted the first as she looked over the sheet-covered body of the late Queen Cyana.
"For it is a shame indeed to never to see them." The other one agreed.
"Now we face with a greater obstacle; how is King Vegeta going to take this sad news?" asked the first with fear welling up in the pit of her stomach.
"Well, Head Nurse Barruba is on her way to tell him right now." answered the second. "The real question is, how will he reacted to the twins?"
Just then, Head Nurse Barruba enter the nursery along with King
Vegeta. The two assistant nursemaids bowed down to him. "Good day your
Majesty." they both greeted, their heads held down afraid to see the King's look.
"How are the children?" King Vegeta asked with actual concern. The two assistants were a bit surprise.
"They are fine, your highness," replied the first.
"They are both healthy and strong, My King" added the other.
"Let me see them," he barked.
"As you wish your Highness. Ruta. Bega." Barruba directed the two assistants, and they handed the twins to the King.
Surprisingly, the twins quieted down. The king got a good look at them. They both had same type of hair like his; except the boy's was more jagged, and the girl's was softer with fewer edges.
"The King has a way with the children," complimented Ruta.
"Aye, that he does," added Bega. The King allowed a small smile to creep across his lips, but no one saw. "The boy has my features, and the girl is exactly like her mother," he secretly thought to himself. "And they are both very powerful indeed!"
Barruba came up to him. "I understand that you are in complete shock, your Majesty," said Barruba still bowing down to him.
"Well, it was quite unexpected." King Vegeta returned the gesture.
"What do you suggest, your Majesty?" asked Ruta.
"The boy will become the new ruler of Vejiitasei just as it's always been," he informed. "As for the girl, she shall wed a mighty warrior, one that is worthy of the Saiyan Royal Family," King Vegeta finished.
"A truly wise decision, your Highness," Bega complimented, although annoyed by the fact that he had chosen for the girl to be nothing more than a wife.
"Do you have the names for the twins My King?" Barruba questioned.
"Like me, the boy's name will be Vegeta, and the girl will be called Salada," answered King Vegeta with pride.
"What wonderful names for them, Your Highness." Barruba approved. Any other response would obviously end in death.
