Gine looked up into the night sky, there were so many stars out. They looked very different from the familiar constellations back home. She wondered where Planet Vegeta's star system was among them.
Where it used to be. She was abruptly reminded
Her eyes started glistening with that thought.
Bardock. He was gone. And every other Saiyan was gone too, and maybe even Raditz too. Killed by Frieza. She still didn't know why. How could he betray allies who've been nothing but loyal to him for most of their history?
Now she and Kakarot may be the last Saiyans left in existence. And they were trapped all alone on this godforsaken rock.
Kakarot started to whimper too as he felt his hunger overtake him. Gine held him tightly to her chest, rocking him back and forth to try and comfort him. Her stomach started to rumble too.
All alone and starving, she thought. The weight of the situation finally starting to crush her.
Deep in her mind, although she tried to suppress it, she was starting to regret coming here. With what little time she and Bardock had to make this escape work, she was so caught up in coming along with Kakarot that she hadn't thought through how she would survive with her son on a planet they knew nothing about. And here they were, starving and hiding from the inhabitants.
She was so angry at herself for not being able to fight off an old man. Was she really that weak and useless? And Kakarot, he was far weaker than that. If he was left to fend for himself, he never would've had a chance here.
Tears streaked down her cheeks and landed on Kakarot. Now they were both crying together.
Maybe... maybe it would have been better if they had stayed on Planet Vegeta. At least they would've died with Bardock and Raditz. All of them going together as a family, not separated by light-years, and her not so alone, cold, lost, and hungry...
She sniffled, letting herself get lost in her despair. Then stopped.
Gine sniffed again, through her tears and the campfire smoke she noticed there was another scent in the air.
Food. Her extremely sensitive Saiyan sense of smell picked up something that smelled cooked coming from somewhere. And it smelled delicious too.
She quickly stood up with Kakarot and looked towards where the scent was coming from. It seemed like it was coming from the direction of the tallest mountain in the distance.
Whatever it was, it brought hope to her. Maybe they won't starve after all!
Gine took off into the forest, following the scent through the brush and up the slope. She picked up the pace, the growling in her stomach becoming almost painful. The scent was getting stronger as they got closer, giving her strength.
When they got to a clearing, she stopped. She saw what looked like a wooden dwelling with curved roofs on all four sides. The scent was very strong now; it had to be coming from inside the hut.
Her mouth started watering, Kakarot could smell the food too as he started to flail his arms out, as if trying to reach it. Oh gods, whatever was cooking in there, it smelled so good... then she froze.
Through the elegantly carved window Gine could see someone moving inside, setting out bowls of something onto a low table.
Dismay gripped her when she recognized him as the elderly human she encountered earlier. How would she steal food from someone who could beat her?
Gine considered retreating back into the forest, but she couldn't. Her feet were anchored and could only go forward, her body going towards the scent of something that could save them.
She had been without food for too long. And what was true of all Saiyans is that no matter the danger, if they were starving, they will eat something come hell or high water.
Her stomach began to take over from her brain as she rushed towards the front door of the hut. There was no way she may find better food in the forest that smelled so nourishing. She didn't care about fighting the human now.
Without thinking, she charged through the wooden door. It shattered into a shower of splinters that flew everywhere.
"WHERE'S THE FOOD?!" She screamed.
The elderly human fell back from his spot at the low table, startled out of his wits. When he sat back up and saw who crashed through his front door, he tensed up. And his eyes lit up in recognizing her.
They stared at each other for a long tense moment. With how disheveled she was from running through the forest and the crazed look in her eyes induced from hunger, Gine seemed feral. Anyone being confronted by her ought to scream bloody murder and run. And they ought to, as she was ready to throttle this human...
But then the old man didn't. Instead, his gaze drifted to baby Kakarot in arms. Then he relaxed and gave her a disarming smile.
"Please, come in, come in." He said, calmly gesturing her to enter.
Gine was flabbergasted that this human didn't start immediately attacking her. Was this some sort of trick?
She started backing away, readying to make another run for it. But the old man raised both hands reassuringly.
"It's okay. I'm not going to hurt you."
Then he waved his hand over to the contents on the table. "You must be famished. Please, come sit down and have something to eat."
Gine followed his gesture and saw what was on his table. Her eyes widened at what she had to admit was the greatest sight she had seen all day.
The elderly human had cooked up a feast. Multiple bowls of white spheres of something grainy, grilled fish, vegetables, soup, loaves of bread, noodles, beans, pickled eggs, and other assortments of food she had no idea what they were, but gods be damned they looked so tantalizing.
Without thinking Gine made her way over and knelt down at the wooden table with Kakarot on her lap. Before the human could say anything else, a flurry of hands and stray food went flying as she and Kakarot greedily inhaled everything within reach. The bowls of white spheres immediately go
ne, half the bread in one bite, the fish devoured, and eggs eaten whole.
