Author's note – 2015

Firstly and most importantly to YOU is that I have added another chapter / epilogue. It had been with me from the first time but I had thought to write a whole other fic. That isn't going to happen however I am about to begin another DBZ Bulma and Vegeta with a bit of a unique twist but still canon so please follow or favourite me as an author to keep in the loop.

Secondly I have revisited this and removed the 20 odd sentences of dialogue that I had transcribed from DBZ funimation dub, I did so because I discovered it's against copyright even on Fanfiction. They were little linkages to connect my story with certain parts of the episodes but are now rewritten as a reference to them and I hope do not affect the pace or the lead in since a fair amount was in the first chapter. There are a few lines left smattered across the 30 000 word story that I could not quite remove without damaging the flow, remembering that I had to do this retroactively. The lines are marked ** to ** these are dialogue from Funimation English dub and are not rewrites of episodes just tail ins and outs. I hope that these few left are not an issue –

A/N - Original 2008

If you see a few words spelt incorrectly eg. Colour , flavour, etc it's because I'm Australian and use UK English spelling. Though I have written mom like that and not mum because that's how Bulma says it. Hope you enjoy my interpretation of Vegeta and Bulma's relationship.

Disclaimer: DragonballZ is not mine, neither are the characters portrayed in this story. This is fanfiction!

Dialogue marked ** to ** is from the funimation dub version of DBZ and not written by me and belongs to them. It is included in brief tail ins and outs of the scenes to link with the anime and is NOT a rewrite of the episodes. All other content, plot and dialogue is my intellectual property and cannot be reproduced without my permission - thanks!

She's Everywhere?

Chapter One

Vegeta leant against a tree off to the side of a large group of namekians and a small group of humans. The scowl on his face could not do justice to the dark feelings that were conveyed in his equally dark eyes.

Moments before he had been laughing and rolling around the grass, gleeful over the death of both Frieza and Kakkarot and he supposed that if anyone had noticed the sudden alteration of his behaviour they might find it odd. Not that he felt his ominous presence went unnoticed, that could not be ignored. What he did not expect was that anyone would observe his mood change.

He should have felt elated, with both Kakkarot and Frieza destroyed in the explosion of planet Namek he was now the strongest warrior alive. He was finally free of Frieza. Free of his orders, free of his ridicule. Never again would he, Vegeta, Prince of all Saiyans have to swallow his pride or bide his time as the mockery of his Saiyan race went unchallenged. Never again would he have to lower himself by yielding to the whims of the very being who had destroyed not only his planet but also his birthright.

It was true that Frieza's demise hadn't come about as he expected but that was another matter. Vegeta paused his thoughts and frowned harder. He could hardly believe that 3rd class warrior had reached the legendary status of Super Saiyan and defeated Frieza! How was it possible? He had to know how he did it! But Kakkartot was dead and along with him the secrets of his transformation.

Vegeta observed that the blue haired girl was still explaining the difficulties of restoring Krillin and Kakkarot back to life to the gathering of humans and namekians. Vegeta had long since grasped the concept that reviving them in the void of space was futile. Still with the dragon able to grant any wish there had to be a way to bring Kakkarot back. Vegeta thought over everything he knew about dragonballs and earth. Yes of course, I've got it! Vegeta leant forward suddenly and interrupted the girl curtly.

He watched as her demeanour changed from shocked to pleasure, as his succinct explanation took shape in her mind. She didn't hesitate to confirm to that the plan would 'work'.

Of course it would, didn't he just say so. He was tempted to assert so but she forestalled his words by suddenly turning her full gaze upon him and offering him her approval!

Vegeta humphed and lowered his eyes. Why should he care if she was impressed? It wasn't as if he'd asked to be here, he'd been wished back to life incidentally, more honestly accidentally and then transported against his will to earth with the rest of them. Vegeta noticed the kid coming up to him to thank him, extending his hand in the earth custom. What was it with these humans? Were they so stupid that they'd forgotten that he'd tried to kill them? He batted Gohan's hand away.

Not only that they had somehow got the idea he cared about the death of Kakkarot when really he only cared about learning how to become a Super Saiyan.

His eyes furrowed and the darkness in them glowed with ambition, his thoughts centring on his new goals.

**"What about you? Hey homeboy?"** Bulma jolted into his thoughts.

** "What? Home what?" ** he said. Had the girl with blue hair just spoken to him? Vegeta's eyebrows bounced in surprise. He wasn't sure what shocked him more; the fact that she realised he was still here or that she had spoken so casually to him.

If that wasn't enough now she seemed to be offering him a place to stay.

Was the earth woman offering him a place to stay? He had not thought about where he would go. He'd never had to consider it under Frieza's dominion. Well he didn't need her kindness, her charity, he could take care of himself. Still he did want to be around when Kakkarot returned.

Vegeta turned his head noncommittally with an air of disinterest but the blue haired girl was not deterred continuing her tirade, telling him to relax among other things and finishing it off with an absurd comment referring to his physical appearance!

**"What? I'm not kind of cute."** Vegeta was stunned. **"Shut up" **

No one had ever dared talk to him that way! Certainly no one had ever called him cute.

Bulma waved excitedly as her father began landing in the nearby clearing. Dr. Briefs climbed out of the giant yellow airbus. Capsule 339.

Dr. Briefs threw a capsule next to the airbus producing another identical airbus.

"I hope you aren't too tired to fly home Bulma." Dr. Briefs said, "I didn't think we'd all fit in one bus."

"Oh Dad, you know I'm never too tired to fly!" Bulma smiled. "Okay everyone, onto the two airbuses!" Bulma instructed the large group.

Bulma watched as the Nameks boarded. Dende and Gohan were getting into the airbus that her dad was flying. Chi-chi followed them. She had decided that Gohan's studies would be of little benefit to him amongst this rabble, they might even suffer in such an unsuitable environment. She would wait until she got him home.

Bulma waited at the airbus for the last group of Nameks. Piccolo was following behind them and she noticed that the group were taking a wide circle around a particular tree. Oh my, she thought, seeing at once their concern. I'd almost forgotten about Vegeta!

She looked at the fear on the nameks faces as they passed by. Vegeta however seemed completely indifferent to their reaction, his eyes appeared shut and his arms were folded across his chest.

Who are you Vegeta? Bulma wondered. One moment you're laughing like a maniac, then you are offering us helpful suggestions and now? What are you thinking?

"Yo! Prince, We're leaving!" Bulma called cheerfully.

Vegeta opened his eyes and looked at her seeming surprised. Bulma wasn't sure what had surprised him exactly but decided that she liked shocking him though she couldn't say for certain why it gave her such a thrill. Perhaps she had developed a taste for danger on Namek.

The namekians did not seem to share her need for danger, hurrying by Vegeta more quickly now that his eyes had opened, all except Piccolo who glared at Vegeta warningly. Vegeta waited a moment for them to pass before shrugging himself off the tree then slowly walked towards Bulma.

"I have no need of your contraptions to take me anywhere." Vegeta said indicating the airbus.

Bulma looked at him undeterred. "I'll have you know I designed this airbus. They are perfectly safe, there's no need for concern."

"I didn't say I was concerned with the safety of . . ." Vegeta began

"Good," Bulma cut him off with a bright smile and climbed into the pilots seat, "then let's go!"

Vegeta scowled.

Bulma patted the seat next to her and smiled sweetly. "One seat left."

Vegeta could see he had no choice. Refusing would make it seem as if he were afraid to get into the airbus, which he most certainly was not. The contraption could blow apart and he would hardly be affected. What was truly disturbing was that he had allowed himself to go along with this escapade and yet what else was there to do? He knew so little of this planet.

He climbed in, grumbling something under his breath. The door closed and Bulma grabbed the controls and grinned wildly.

"Here we go!" she shouted as the airbus lurched into the sky seemingly defying the solid nature of its exterior with the force of acceleration.

Authors Narration - That's right they've lurched off to Capsule Corp. but will the airbus be the only thing lurching after Bulma's flying? Does the prince get airsick and what colour do nameks go when they are sick anyway?
