Chapter one: A sudden blast, a quick escape

"Oh Vegetaaaa," Bulma said in a voice that made Vegeta's hair stand on end.

"What do you want? I'm watching TV." Vegeta replied, hoping she wouldn't call again.

"Would you mind coming into the lab for a minute? I want to tell you something…NOW!"

"COMING" Vegeta yelled, jumping up.

It's been three weeks…why is she still acting like this?

FLASHBACK

It had been a rather hot day, even by summer's standards, and Vegeta had gotten rather worn out (unusual in itself) from sparring with Trunks, who had just turned twenty-one.

"What's wrong dad? You're not yourself today." Trunks noted with a worried tone.

"…"

"Dad?"

In truth, Vegeta wasn't himself. He had been having nightmares, which rarely ever happened, so he hadn't been sleeping well. He was constantly exhausted and even the thought of fighting in his current state made him almost want to let himself get knocked out hoping that he may have a dreamless night's sleep as a result.

"…I'm just tired, that's all" Vegeta replied irritably.

"Oh, okay," Trunks said looking down at his watch, "CRAP! My date was 30 minutes ago!" he took off, leaving Vegeta to lie in his thoughts in the field by himself.

Why am I letting it get to me? He thought angrily to himself, why can't I just let it go and live my life? It's not like she's real or anything…Bulma doesn't need to know

Yes she does

Why? It's just a dream.

So? You should tell her anyway, it might make you feel better…and get some sleep

Thanks, but I don't need advice from myself

Then why are you talking to yourself?

Shut up.

Shut up myself. It's not like you can't control what your head thinks.

I said shut up.

Why don't you just stop listening to yourself?

SHUT UP!

Okay, but you know you want to tell her…

"Sigh" Vegeta got up and flew towards his house in West City to confront Bulma about his nightmares…dreams…confusion.

When he got home, he went to the lab, where Bulma was working on a time machine, which was nearing completion.

"…Bulma…?" Vegeta said quietly, almost in a shy voice.

"Yes, Vegeta?" she replied sweetly, looking up from her work. He could tell that she was clearly in good mood. Most likely, the time machine was going to be finished sooner than expected.

"…well. Have you noticed that I haven't had much sleep?" A question he didn't need to ask. He knew her answer.
"Yes I have," her smile faltering a bit, "are you about to tell me why?"

"…"

"Vegeta?"

"…"

"Are you going to let me in on this train of thought or do I have to buy a ticket?" Her joke made him smile a bit.

Tell her

I can't

Yes you can

I can't

Coward!

Perhaps…

JUST SAY IT!

OK!

"Um…Bulma…I haven't been sleeping because of these…dreams." He looked down at his feet, knowing that when he explained the dreams…there would be hell.

"Well, are they nightmares? Or have you not slept because you felt guilty about what's in the dreams?" She had meant it as a joke but the look on Vegeta's face told all. "Vegeta…tell me you haven't been dreaming about other women."

"…"

"Vegeta…" Bulma said, her face turning a dark red, "tell me it isn't true!"

This is what you were expecting…get ready…

"I'll KILL YOU!"

Time to run

END FLASHBACK

Vegeta took one step into the laboratory and peered around. He didn't see Bulma anywhere, so he went over to where the time machine was. Just like he was hoping against, there she was, standing with a rather evil smile on her face.

Gulp

"Oh, hi Vegeta," she said very sweetly, "I've finished with the time machine…I was wondering whether or not you would like to…you know…test it out for me?"

Vegeta stood stock-still hoping it was a dream.

She wants to kill you!

It can't be that bad…maybe she'll send me back to where you could kill Kakarot.

Wouldn't that be sweet…yeah…killing him…

But I know she wants to kill me!

Yeah…but at least you can get away from her

Should I do it?

She wont give you a choice in the matter…vile women

Oh no, she's glaring at me! Think fast!

You're on your own

What?

You heard you! Bye

BASTARD!

"Well? Are you going to do it or not?" Bulma asked in a dangerous voice to make anyone's skin crawl.

"Mumble…"

"What was that?"

"……..yes…"

"Heh, heh, good. I knew you'd come around." She turned around to face the machine and pressed a few buttons. "Well, Vegeta, get in."

Mumbling something about curses to the deepest, darkest depths of hell, Vegeta obliged, happy for any chance to get away from Bulma.

This may be fun, you know

Oh, I see you're back

Hey, I never left…your brain just went blank for some reason

Whoa, it's shaking!

Here we go

Wonder if this hurts…

You're about to find out

What's that noise?

The time machine had just started to make a high-pitched whistle that seemed to get louder and louder with each passing second. After about two minutes, it became so loud that Vegeta could hardly stand it. In an instant, there was a loud bang and all Vegeta could see were swirling colors as the time machine started spinning faster and faster. Just when Vegeta thought he was going to be sick, it stopped, just as suddenly as it had begun.

"WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT ABOUT!" He yelled to no one in particular. "I'LL KILL THAT WOMEN!" He opened the hatch to the machine and stepped out into a completely un-recognizable forest. He looked around and saw in the distance, a sign that said "Konohagakure Village Entrance"

"Well, " said Vegeta to himself, "Might as well check it out." He started walking toward the entrance when out of nowhere, three people jumped down from the trees (okay, I guess it was out of somewhere) And circled him in fighting stances.

"Who are you? What are you doing in our forest?" Asked the ninja (cuz that's what they were) who was standing closest to Vegeta and almost directly in front of him.

"My name is none of your business but I'm looking for information."

"Show us your travel papers!" yelled one of the other ninja, this time to Vegeta's left.

"Travel what?" Asked a flabbergasted Vegeta

"If you don't have travel papers, we have no choice but to ask you to leave!" said the first ninja.

"I'm not going ANYWHERE!" exclaimed Vegeta, also taking a fighting stance.

"Then we will have to force you!"

"Bring it on! I've been looking for a reason to kill somebody lately. You three might do just nicely." Vegeta smiled evilly at them, hoping that they would make a challenge.

"Enough talk. GET HIM!" The first ninja yelled as they pounced toward Vegeta.
