A/N: I recently found myself with to much time on my hands and started watching a bit of DBZ again. I have a love hate relationship with this show. As my first anime, we'll forget about Pokemon, it will always have a place in my heart. I used to sit and watch the show with my momma and wee brothers and I remember my mum being particularly interested in Bulma and Vegeta's relationship, I therefore place partial blame on her for this following story. My mum once asked why we never saw any 'action' in the show. Two answers; that would be a big no no for Toriyama, and Dragonball is not hentai. I, on the other hand, am not Toriyama, and this little offering will have smut :D

Disclaimer: If I owned the Dragonball the series would have ended after Buu. It did not, so I do not, and I instead continue to deny GT as being canon.

Prologue

Strength and power was all that mattered to Vegeta.

It had been his birthright and his alone to become the most powerful warrior in all the universe. He had trained his whole life letting nothing, not even the destruction of his people, deter him from his path.

So why had he been beaten by that low class fool, Kakarott. The man knew nothing of what it meant to be a Saiyan, he had no pride.

There was that boy also, the man had haunted Vegeta's dreams since he made his unannounced appearance, and cut down Frieza without any effort at all. How in all creation that brat could be a Super Saiyan was beyond the Prince and it only served to further fuel his bitter anger.

Furious, Vegeta powered up as the drones around him begun their defensive stage of the training program. The simulator was set to 400 times the Earth's normal gravity and his whole body fought against the deadly pull.

He tensed, a growl escaping his lips, and then in a sudden, fluid movement he dropped down, firing a blast of energy into the group of drones. The blast engulfed each of the machines, burning into the metal casing and frying their circuitry. They each fell to the ground, landing around Vegeta who pushed and forced himself to a standing position.

He was improving but it wasn't enough. Nothing he did would be good enough until he to became and Super Saiyan and defeated Kakarott.

Bulma was irritated to say the least, Saiyans may have a superior body makeup to humans but she was sure that Vegeta shouldn't be pushing himself so hard when only two days ago he had passed out from massive injuries sustained whilst training.

If she didn't know better she'd say he was an idiot, but she was Bulma Briefs and she knew better. The man was stubborn and on top of that extremely arrogant and prideful. She had seen and heard enough to know that Vegeta wasn't one to accept second place, especially not to someone like Goku. A man whom he obviously despised to the point of obsession.

His drive though, as her mother of all people had pointed out, was pretty admirable. He was handsome too, in a dark way. Bulma was also sure he couldn't be all evil though, after all he hadn't cause any real trouble since arriving on Earth and the space ship stealing incident didn't hurt anyone in the end. If anything the man was lonely.

Perhaps if he'd had someone who was a positive influence in his life he wouldn't be quite so cold.

Perhaps it wasn't too late.

Short I know but it's a prologue and the real story comes later. Im going to try and keep this in character which means no 'omgiwuvyoohkthxbai'. Reviews give me motivation.. *hint hint*.
