Then I Met You

by hika-sa

Bulma is a 25 year old woman. Beautiful, intelligent, wealthy-you might say she has it all, but in reality- she doesn't. Her story is set in stone. In a years' time, she'll leave the world of the living. That is, unless pure love can come into her life and recreates a happier ending…An ending that will keep her alive with someone to live for.

1. Destiny To Change Fate

Destiny to Change Fate

Seeing everyone…just so happy, dancing with each other. It hurts. This loneliness…I feel so empty…it hurts. Why is it that they've found what they've been looking for but I'm still here, alone? I envy them. Maybe what I'm looking for doesn't exist… maybe I'm meant to be alone. Is that it? Fate wants me to live with a gap in my heart, forever? Because if so, that just wouldn't be fair.

I'm still waiting whoever you are. I'm waiting just for you. Hurry before it's too late. I don't think I have much time left. In one year I'll die. I'll die unless you come save me. Are you coming for me? I hope you come soon… I need you…

Hello? Are you there? Hmm. I didn't think so. When? When will you come? I'm still waiting. Honestly, I'm getting a little impatient. But that's okay. I think you're worth it. Even though I don't know who you are yet, I know one thing. I'll love you…forever. I promise.

25 years ago Trunks and Bunny Briefs heard their doorbell ring. However, when they opened the entrance, no one was there. No one except for a newborn baby resting peacefully, covered in ragged sheets. Taking the child in, they discovered a book with a note on it:

BULMA. LIFE WILL NEVER COME EASY; FOR IF EVERYTHING WENT RIGHT IN THE WORLD, WHAT WILL WE HAVE TO LOOK FORWARD TO? I WANT YOU TO LOOK FORWARD TO LIFE, BULMA. THIS IS SIMPLY THE FIRST PAGE OF THE STORY. AS YOU GROW, NEW EVENTS WILL APPEAR, FOREVER SETTING YOUR HISTORY IN STONE. BUT REMEMBER: THERE MAY BE AN END TO THIS STORY, BUT IT IS ONLY PRE-WRITTEN. YOU STILL HAVE A CHANCE. YOU STILL HAVE A CHANCE TO LIVE. JUST FIND THE PERSON THAT WILL PULL YOU OUT OF THE DARKEST NIGHT. HE WHO WILL DIVE THE DEEPEST DEPTHS FOR YOU. THE ONE WHO WILL REMIND YOU WHAT IT REALLY MEANS TO

"'To' what, hun?" Bunny asked her husband. That was it. Part of the note was torn so that the last words of the note were lost forever.

Dr. Briefs took the sleeping baby into his arms and caressed her aquamarine hair. "Bulma will find out one day, dear. Our Bulma will find out one day. It's her destiny to."
