Vegetta wasn’t just a mere mortal like everyone on the island thought. He was actually much more powerful. He was a demigod with the spirit of a wolf. Most of the time the spirit would lay dormant. Sometimes showing in his fighting style, or in the way he would get possessive or protective over the people he loved. Thankfully though no one ever really questioned his behavior. They would always just dismiss it for just how Vegetta normally acts.
There were certain ocasiones though when his wolf side Lubo Nogtugno would take over. One of them being when there was a blood moon. When the time would come Vegetta would go away for a little bit. So Lobo Nogtugno could roam free unbothered by people. Also because Vegetta wasn’t fully himself when he was in his Demigod form. His spirit would replace that of the wolves. As the wolf would have free control over his body and actions, Vegetta would just watch from the back of his mind. Though this could sound worrying, they trusted each other. Besides, even when Vegetta wasn’t in control of his body he was still able to communicate with Lobo Nogtugno.
Normally Vegetta would only be gone for a week. It was Normally a few days of Lobo Nogtugno slowly waking up and gaining control, then he would be in his full form on the night of the blood moon. After that Vegetta would have to rest, giving his body time to relax. The thing was something had changed from when the last time Lobo Nogtugno came out. He found his soulmate.
He met Foolish. The half shark half totem being that possessed his thoughts, and entered his heart. When he told Foolish that it was only them together in this lifetime. Foolish didn’t understand just how deep the meaning behind those words were. From the first day on the island he had caught Vegettas attention. How could he not, the silly noises, and amazing builds captivated Vegetta. It was like Foolish was made to complete him. Which I guess in a way he was.
Foolish confirmed this the day they received Leo at the adoption center. Expressing that “their love was written in the stars. Predestined.” Though he didn’t realize just how true his statements were. It showed that Foolish also felt the connection between them.
Since then Lobo Nogtugno had become more and more prominent in Vegetta’s actions. From immediately fighting or killing any person, egg, or thing that attacked Foolish. Going mad and mine crazy when Foolish had forgotten to mention both Leo and him in his presentation to the French. To his latest thing. Spending weeks building a working railroad and train that connected both his and Foolish’s towers. Almost as if to make a public declaration that Foolish and him were connected. It was for these reasons Vegetta had to stay away longer. He had yet to explain all this to his lover. It wasn’t because he was scared of possibly being rejected, or that Foolish would be disgusted with him. He realized quickly Foolish was a very accepting person, open to anything. More like he knew this would be a lot to take in and process. Finding out you had found your soulmate was one thing. To find out your soulmate was also a wolf demigod was another. It’s not exactly something you just bring up randomly. He wanted to sit down and explain everything to Foolish. Answering any questions he may have. Though with their polar schedules, and the everyday chaos on the island he hasn’t been able to do that.
Vegetta had realized that this had come back to bite him. Since Lubo Nogtugno and Vegetta were one. Lobo Nogtugno could tell right away that he had found his perfect mate. He probably realized it before Vegetta did. The problem was that Lobo Nogtugno had never met Foolish. So now that he would soon be in complete control, Vegetta was worried of what the other part of him would do.
This led to them being away for almost a month now, preparing for when his other half would take over. Sadly that means it has been a month since he had seen both his daughter and his lover. Both Lobo Nogtugno and Vegetta agreed though it would be worth it. Seeing as Lobo Nogtugno confessed that he wasn’t sure how he would react when he first meets Foolish. The last thing they wanted to do was scare the totem away. As the days got closer to the blood moon, Vegetta realized Lobo Nogtugno was gaining more and more control. From the rapid growth of his nails, and canines becoming sharper. He also began to move quicker, along with seeing things clearly even in the darkest night.
These were all things that came in handy. There was a legend surrounding his wolf counterpart. He had a reputation to uphold.There was a tale of a wolf man with magical powers he was known for taking from the poor and giving to the rich. A reverse Robin Hood some would say. Though this was true he wasn’t all bad, his god like abilities let him heal, and give blessings to others as well. Should they be deemed worthy. This led to many people looking for him, others even trying to summon him to receive his blessings, but none have been able to do it successfully. Thankfully though time had done what it did best, it made people forget. So though the story of Lobo Nogtugno was still around, only few people knew of the blessings he could provide.
When the day of the Blood moon came and Lobo Nogtugno had fully taken over Vegetta just took a step back. Watching from the back of his mind as Lobo Nogtugno did what they normally did. That was until his vision began to grow dark during a run through the woods.
-Lobo Nogtugno POV-
When I opened my eyes a howl escaped my throat, soon I heard others around me howl as well. Turning around I notice a group of people looking up at me. Most of them looked shocked as if they were not expecting me.
“I can’t believe it worked.”
“Lobo Nogtugno It’s you!”
Well that confirmed that.
“oui oui bonjour c'est moi Lobo Nogtugno”
(yes yes hello it is me Lobo Nogtugno)”
This is strange Lobo thought. He has never been successfully summoned before, what did they have that was different from the others? More importantly though, he wondered what they wanted. The room just continues to be full of chaos. People screaming and howling all around. As he looked at each of the people below him one of them catches his eye. A blonde-haired man with gold skin, and emerald eyes was in the back of the group. He was holding a dark helmet in his hands. He had to of just taken it off because there was no way the golden man had been looking at him this whole time, and he didn’t notice right away. Lobo Nogtugno normally prides himself for having an eye for fancy jewels, and those emeralds looking back at him were more precious than any jewel he stole before.
‘Foolish’ he hears Vegetta whisper in his mind. Wait this was Foolish? This was our soulmate? Someone had walked in front of him, and began to speak, but Lobo Nocturno ignored them.
“Shut up, shut up.” He say quickly jumping from the pedestal and making his way over to the man in the back of the room. As Lobo Nogtugno moved forward the others moved behind the man who was looking around confused. Slowly he reached out, and grab the man by his chin. Moving his thumb across the younger man’s cheek.
‘Aye no lo asustes. (Aye don’t scare him.)’ Vegetta says quickly.
Lobo Nogtugno almost didn’t register it, he was getting lost in those beautiful emerald eyes. There were a lot of things he wanted to do with their beautiful mate. Scare him was not one of them.
“You, my boy, are beautiful.”
The giggle he was met with immediately caused a howl of excitement to escape him. Turning away quickly to not let the man see his blush. He can hear the sounds of the others hyping up the golden man. “You are the chosen one.”
‘ Oh si supieran cuán cierto es eso. (Oh if they only knew how true that was.)’ He thinks, causing Vegetta to chuckle.
“Oh wait Mr. Night Wolf.” Quickly turning around at the sound of my mate trying to get my attention, he looks at Foolish.
“Mr. Night Wolf…. I’m kind of with someone else right now.”
Lobo Nogtugno turned to the man beside him checking to see if he heard him correctly.
“Dice que ya esta con otra. (He says he is already with another).”
‘Aww mi amor! recuerda Foolish no sabe que somos la misma persona, (remember Foolish doesn’t know we are the same person,)’ Vegetta reminds the wolf.
Lobo Nogtugno couldn’t help but giggle at that comment. Though something tells him. With the slight smirk on Foolish’s face when he said that. That his mate wasn’t as blind as the others.
“Yes, yes, of course.”
Then the green and pink eyed man asked if there was anything he wanted. Honestly there were a few, and many of them involved the man standing in the back of the room. Though it probably would raise more suspicion if he said that. Plus it doesn’t seem like the man will be interested seeing as he isn’t Vegetta. Well he is actually more Vegetta then he realized, but he didn’t know that yet. He noticed that he had been starring for to long. So he said the first thing that comes to mind.
“Quiero Filete Mignon. (I want Filet Mignon.)”
“Meat, meat, he wants meat,” the man next to him says. He watches as everyone quickly reaches into there backpacks to search for his request.
“You can have my meat, you can have my meat.” Foolish says weither innocently or not the wolf wasn’t to sure. Still he couldn’t stop his eyes from looking over the totems body. He could only imagine what was hiding behind that armor.
‘Aye ¡ni siquiera lo pienses! perro sucio (Aye don’t even think about it! You dirty dog.)’ Vegetta yells.
‘Y dices que soy el territorial. (An you say I’m the territorial one.)’ The wolf comments back, smirking slightly, he just shakes his head.
“No no no Foolish no.” The wolf says, causing the man to giggle again.
(A/N: I’m not going to lie I watched this clip so many times and I’m still not sure what the hell happened in between some of this and I also couldn’t find translations to figure it out. So sorry if this isn’t accurate in some parts)
“Lobo Nogtugno espera tengo una pregunta. (wait I have a question.)” Ah yes maybe now he will figure out why he was ripped away from his run and summoned here.
“Yes yes, go ahead.”
“Foolish’s el amante Vegetta ha estado fuera por mucho tiempo, se está sintiendo solo y triste. ¿Hay alguna manera de que puedas traerlo de vuelta?”
(Foolish’s lover Vegetta has been away for a long time, he is getting lonely and sad. Is there any way you could bring him back?)”
‘Oh Foolish, No fue mi intención dejarlo por tanto tiempo. Tal vez él entienda que fue para su protección.
(I didn’t mean to leave him for so long. Maybe he will understand it was for his protection.)’’
Vegetta mumbles.
Lobo Nogtugno turns to Foolish who was now staring at them from the mention of his now. He was obviously trying to figure out what they were saying.
“Yes I can do that, it’s possible.”
Before he could say anymore the man had already quickly ran over to Foolish. Excited to tell him the good news.
“Foolish! Foolish! Lobo Nogtugno says it is possible for him to bring back your love Vegetta!”
Lobo Nogtugno never wants to see the smile Foolish had leave his face. Foolish now jumping off of his chair runs to him. Buzzing with excitement.
“Yes, yes, bring back my Vegetta.”
“Hágale saber que tomará tiempo, tendrá que ser paciente. (Let him know it will take time, he will have to be patient.)” Lobo Nogtugno says to the man translating for him.
As the man repeated his words. Foolish began to jump up and down excited about this new information. It made the wolf's heart swell seeing his mate so happy.
After a while he begins to grow tired. The craziness of everyone talking has begun to bother him. Soon though he noticed Foolish walking closer to him.
“Umm Mr. Night wolf.” He had his immediate attention. Quickly he snapped his fingers at the man next to him that spoke Spanish. Interrupting what he was saying, but Lobo Nogtugno couldn’t find it in him to care. He only wanted to talk to Foolish.
“Tradúceme, tradúceme para el chico (Translate for me, translate for me to the boy.)” The wolf says not taking his eyes off the emerald ones.
“Rápido antes de irme
(Quickly before I leave.)”
“Foolish before he leaves. Lobo Nogtugno has a message for you.”
“Oh what’s the message?”
Both the man and Foolish look to him. Foolish looked like he was hanging on to every word he was about to say. Lobo Nogtugno couldn’t help but just continue to admire the man before him. From his chaotic energy, to his loyalty for his love. How could he not be captivated by him. He didn’t even need the mate pull to find himself gravitating towards the younger man.
‘Dile que siga cuidando a nuestra hija, y que espere a su amor. (Tell him to continue taking care of our daughter, and to wait for his love.)’ Vegetta whispers. Both him and Lobo Nogtugno could already feel the pain and sadness that would come when they walked away from Foolish again. Hopefully this time though it would be the last time. At least for this reason.
Lobo Nogtugno quickly repeats the words to the man who translates for him.
Foolish nods is head looking straight at him now. “I’ll wait! And I’ll keep waiting! You tell him that!”
Lobo Nogtugno's heart leapt at those words. The fact that he promised to wait for them. Even though he wasn’t sure when, or for how long he would be back. Lobo Nogtugno wasn’t sure what Vegetta and him did to get a soulmate like Foolish.
“Believe me Foolish.”
Maybe he was consumed by the fact that he had finally got to meet his mate, or maybe because even though Vegetta wasn’t in control his desire was still strong enough. Lobo Nogtugno found himself placing his hand on Foolish’s face. Quickly stealing a kiss from the man’s lips before he left.
‘Probablemente no debería haber hecho eso.
(I probably shouldn’t have done that.)’ He couldn’t help but think. He can’t say he regrets it though. Even though it was just a quick peck on the lips. It took alot of control to not go back down there and make his claim on Foolish. To hell with keeping his identity a secret from the others.
Then again there was a reason many on the island, and those from the past didn’t know about Vegetta and him. It was very dangerous to be known as a demigod. Especially one who was still in touch with their powers.
‘Ha pasado tanto tiempo desde que he visto nuestro amor. no te culpo Además, los demás se distraen fácilmente. No creo que tengamos que preocuparnos.
(It’s been so long since I have seen our love. I don’t blame you. Besides, the others get distracted easily. I don’t think we have to worry.)’ Vegetta says to reassure the wolf.
‘Tal vez podríamos echar un último vistazo
(Maybe we could have one last look.)’ Lobo Nogtugno couldn’t help it. Since he had Foolish so close, he didn’t want to leave his side. It was hard to walk away. So instead, he hid within the trees. Watching as everyone came out of the secret entrance, and to the waystone.
‘No creo que podamos sobrevivir estando lejos de él por tanto tiempo, Vegetta (I don’t think we can survive being away from him for so long, Vegetta.)’ Lobo Nogtugno admits. If the pull wasn’t strong before, it definitely was now. It took all the self control he could master to not jump down and run to Foolish again.
‘No se preocupe, una vez que recupere el control total, regresaré. Entonces le explicaré todo para que no tengamos que ausentarnos tanto tiempo. (Don’t worry once I am back in full control I will return. Then I will explain everything to him so we won’t have to be away for so long.)’ Vegetta responds.
‘Antes de que empieces a hablar, tal vez deberías ponerte al día con todos los besos que nos perdimos.
(Before you get to talking, maybe you should catch up on all the kisses we missed out on.)’ Lobo Nogtugno says cheeky.
‘ Aye perro sucio (Aye you dirty dog).’ Vegetta mumbles. This caused the wolf to blush under the mask. Letting his thoughts wonder.
‘Somos un Vegetta, no puedes ocultar el hecho de que también me lo estás pensando.
(We are one Vegetta you can’t hide the fact that you're also thinking about it from me.)’
Not getting a response back the wolf just smirked. Watching as his love disappeared from his sight as he teleported.
“No te haremos esperar mucho mi amor.
(We won’t keep you waiting for long mi amor.)” Lobo Nogtugno says out loud.
‘Créeme (Believe me.)’ Vegetta confirms.
——
As Foolish watched Lobo Nogtugno leave. He was stunned at the wolf's actions. His hands istinctually reaching up to wher the wolfs lips pressed against his own.
While the others surrounded him all yelling stuff about him being the chosen one. He couldn’t help but think about the familiar warmth of those lips, and how he definitely recognized those abs. All he could do was chuckle as he looked around at the pictures on the wall. They basically confirmed his suspicions. Not that the others needed to know what he realized.
“Don’t go falling in love with the Night Wolf.” Max warns Foolish.
He couldn’t help but smirk. Seems like it might be a little late for that. Shaking his head he just chuckles, he tried to hide the cocky tone as he responded.
“Falling in love with the Night Wolf? That would be crazy!”
