Hey everyone! Dusty here! Now, this is my first fic, but that doesn't mean i want you all to go easy on me in the reviews. Flames welcome, but try to make them a little more constructive criticism than flames. This story is based mainly around Vegeta and my original character: Setorene.
Just a couple of notes before we begin. 1. Vegeta can go SSJ4 without the help of Bulma and the generator. 2. There has been much dispute in the past about whether Vegeta and Bulma's Daughter's name is Bulla, Bura or Bra. I will be using Bulla, but only because that is how it is said on the series of GT I watch.
Anyway, enjoy the fic and get back to me on it afterwards!
"Final flash!" The voice resonated in the huge room. The beam of pure light and energy illuminated everything in its path.
"Haaa…Meeee…HAAAAAAAAAA!" the two blasts collided in the centre of the room, one pushing against the other, only to have the other push back just as hard. Fighting for domination over the other, they used up all of their reserves of strength, and yet were still as equals.
"Be prepared to lose, Vegeta!" Yelled the one behind the 'kamehameha' blast.
"Not this time! This one's mine!" the other one shouted back.
Just as they were about to take their attacks to the very limits of their power… the intercom sounded over.
"Vegeta! Honey, it's me! I'm coming over to bring in your dinner, okay? See you in a minute!"
Both of the occupants of the gravity room cut off their attacks. Vegeta trudged over to the control panel and turned the gravity back down to normal.
"I guess that cuts our training session short. You staying for a while?" He asked his sparring partner.
"I'm not supposed to be here, remember? Your wife hates me and has no idea I'm here."
They replied.
"Oh, right." Suddenly, the tone sounded as Bulma pressed the voice over button from just outside the GR.
"Vegeta? Can you please open the door? I've got your dinner here." Vegeta looked to his sparring partner.
"Ah, I think it'd be best if you left before I let her in."
"How! That's the only door!"
"Damn! Hmm…" He looked around the room for some inspiration. Suddenly, he spotted the skylight on the ceiling… and proceeded to blast a hole right through it.
"Go, quick! Before the smoke clears!"
He watched as his companion flew up to the hole in the ceiling. Just as they were about to fly off, he called them back.
"Hey!" They turned their head back.
"Be here at the reunion tomorrow. Act as though we have not seen each other in a while."
"Will do, and you as well. 'Til tomorrow."
'You had better come back, brat.' He thought to himself as he watched Setorene Kinto fly off towards mountain area 429.
Setorene soared across the sky, up above the clouds as she made her way home. She contemplated the past few months. She had only arrived here on Earth around three years ago, but she was already friends with most of the Z senshi. Gohan and Videl had offered her a place to stay with them and Pan, which had been extremely generous of them seeing as how they had only just met.
Goku was always there for a spar, advice or even just a chat and a nice dinner. He approved of her right from the start, even if Chichi disagreed. He took her under his wing pretty much straight away. He was also one of the two only people who believed or trusted her when she first arrived on Earth.
The other one of these two was one of the least likely people ever and surprised everyone quite a bit when he said he believed her story. Vegeta. There was some kind of connection between them both. I mean, it's not as if Vegeta dropped the cocky attitude and the 'Prince-of-Saiyans' front he normally put on, no way. If anything, he amplified that when he was around her, but in a teasing kind of way. It was as if they had their own private joke about it. Only one thing brought them back down to Earth when they were off in their own world, having their own conversation.
Bulma. From the very start, Bulma hadn't trusted her, liked her or even given her a chance. She thought she was up to something the entire time. It didn't help that she was spending so much time with Vegeta. They had both enjoyed a challenging sparring partner and also a good companion whom they could have a conversation with. Setorene knew plenty about saiyan culture, history, geography etc, which made for an excellent discussion as they were always swapping stories.
After a while, Bulma had had enough of this. She refused to have Setorene over at Capsule Corp any more than necessary. She went to any means possible to keep them separated. That's when the 'training in secret' began.
Almost every day, Setorene would fly over to meet Vegeta at the most absurd hours of the morning to begin training and generally would not leave until well into the day, but she had always made sure it was before dinnertime so that Bulma had no chance of catching her as Bulma was only permitted to interrupt Vegeta's training at dinnertime or after.
Today, however, had been the first day they had ever lost track of time. They had not realized that they had worked their way into the early hours of the evening, causing her to make a quick getaway.
She chuckled to herself as she thought about how Bulma would go absolutely mad when she saw the hole blasted right through the roof of the GR. She had fixed the GR countless numbers of times thanks to both Vegeta and Setorene, though Bulma was stuck wondering how Vegeta could do such damage on his own. She had no idea.
Setorene hated to say it, but she took a great pleasure in these secret meetings. It made her time somewhat more meaningful and worth it, and she always felt uplifted and rather satisfied afterwards.
She was quite looking forward to tomorrow's reunion. All of the Z Senshi would be gathering at the Capsule Corps Mansion for a large party both for celebrating their years together and for reuniting with old friends. The only thing she had to remember was to act as if she hadn't seen Vegeta in months or else she might raise suspicions.
'It'll be fun to see everyone again and not have to watch my back around Vegeta. I'm so sick of hiding from Bulma!' She thought to herself. Gohan and Videl's two-story house came into view down below and so she began to float back down to Earth to return to the reality of life.
