Chapter 1: Graduation day

The halls of Aladan academy where literally sparking with gold, the silk-laced curtains hung from the tall windows that draped down from the ceiling to the floor, girls of all ages made their way to the front auditorium. Where sixteen girls of the senior class where graduating, one of them the youngest princess, Bulma.

Though Bulma wasn't the smartest of all of her sister's, in fact this was her third attempt at graduating, But that didn't bother her too much, it was her best friend Chi-Chi who was causing all of that.

"Well Bulma I must say I'm impressed." said Chi-Chi. "I didn't think you would ever get out of Aladan academy, I guess the tests have gotten easier since I last took them." she sighs " I mean if you actually got the hell out!" Chi-Chi says with a laugh.

"WELL YOU DON'T HAVE TO RUB IT IN CHI-CHI!" yelled Bulma. Turning her head away from her friend Chi-Chi starts laughing " Oh Bulma you know I didn't mean it, I was just kidding!" she said as she tried to keep herself from laughing again. Before Bulma could answer back to her father King Brief came up to her.

"Bulma I'm so proud of you!" he says with an embrace. Bulma smiles and hugs her father back, "Thanks daddy"she says back. "I mean I was starting to think I would have to pay another year of tuition." he says with a laugh, although Bulma no longer had her smile. "IF ALL OF YOU ARE JUST GOING TO INSULT ME THAN WHY DON'T YOU JUST LEAVE!" she yells.

"Oh sweetie I didn't mean to hurt your feelings, I'm sorry!" replied her father. Bulma looked over at Chi-Chi who was rolling all over the ground with laughter. "See Bulma I'm not the only one making jokes!" she says between her breathing. Bulma stares at her and her father with a cold glare and begins to walk away. But not before she runs into her oldest sister Natsuya, The brain of the four of them.

Bulma stares at her sister, just waiting for her to give out a smart comment to piss her off like everyone else was. But instead Natsuya walked up to her and hugged her little sister. And whispers into her ear "Congratulations Bulma". Bulma was shocked to hear this from Natsuya, she was the worst to her through out her whole life always coming up with the best little comments to put Bulma down, and here she was the only one not being judgmental.

"Thh thanks Natsuya" Bulma replies back, Natsuya pulls away from Bulma and smiles, with a small smirk. "Your welcome Bulma, and here Bibyu wishes he could be here so instead we got you a gift." she says with a smile. She turns to her purse and pulls out a long box and a smaller box. Sitting down on a near by bench Bulma stares at them for a moment wondering what Natsuya and her husband had gotten for her. Picking the smaller box up gracefully she unwrapped the small pink bow on top, and pulled the lid away from her. And Bulma's eye's lit up shocked when she saw the a waited present inside. In shock she looked over at her sister, "The golden angel!" Bulma answered "but how did you knoo..." she was cut off by her sister. "I saw you always looking at it when we were out shopping, so me and Bibyu decided to get it for your graduation present!".

Bulma jumped into her sister's arms, "Oh thank you Natsuya! Thank you so much!" she said with the biggest grin ever on her face. Bulma looked up at her sister maybe she's changed after all. Bulma looked over at the other long box Natsuya had pulled out. Looking back up at Natsuya she asked, "Is this a present as well?" Natsuya smiled and shook her head. Bulma grabbed the box off her lap and ripped it open. "This was mothers favorite bracelet, she told me before she died that I should share it with all of us, but Toroko and Itsumi didn't really want it so I pass it to you Bulma, the twenty-eighth princess of Aladan." Bulma extended her arm out, pulling back her graduation gowned so Natsuya could put on her bracelet, it shimmered in the sun light along with the pin.

"So what's with you two being alone over here? I mean Bulma have you forgiven me yet? Or are you just going to never talk to me again?" asked Chi-Chi. Bulma looked up at her and extended her arm out. "WOW! Bulma where'd you get that?" asked Chi-Chi. Bulma turned her head to her sister, "from Natsuya!" Chi-Chi looked up at her and was shocked, this was the same sister who used to throw rocks at her. "Well Natsuya I should tell you when my birthday comes up!" Chi-Chi said.

Then suddenly out of one where a man over the intercom calls out "would Bulma Brief please come over to the stage immediately!" Bulma's father looked up at Bulma and said " Well Bulma this is your time!" she smiled and made her way over to auditorium while her father, Chi-Chi, and Natsuya took there seats.

After everyone had received their diploma's the Dean of the school announced " Congratulations to the class of 2005!" as customary everyone throw their hats into the air and cheered that they where finally out. "Also, I would like to say that the choices of where you may start practicing your magic will be sent in the mail, so keep a look-out. Than when you have filled out the forms and get a response from us, you will leave in the next few days."

That night Bulma looked at the gift Natsuya had given her wherever I go I will wear this always! Bulma thought quietly, smiling at it and returning it to it's box. Suddenly there was a knock at the door, Bulma turned her head and yelled "it's open!" the door creaked open and there stood her father, the king of Aladan. Bulma turned her head back, "oh, hi daddy!"turning her head back to the box she was holding. The King smiled and turned his head back down. "Bulma are you sure your ready to go off and start practicing with your magic alone? I mean there are plenty of places to start here first them move up to other places..." Bulma stopped her father before he finished. Turning her head back to her father she answered. "Daddy I've been waiting for this day since I was born, I can't back out now." sighing the King answered "honey I know but it's just that maybe after a couple more months than you'll be ready to leave and go conquer some planet, like planet Vegeta" Bulma looked over at her father, "Planet Vegeta? What's that?" she asked. Her father looked back at her "oh honey it's a saiyan planet full of villainess creatures that ran-sack planets and sell them for scraps, it's a place that hopefully no Aladanian will ever have to see!" Bulma thought to herself, Planet Vegeta huh? Sounds fun!

The next day Bulma got the letter in the mail, of where she could start her training. She looked through the packets of paper she got, beautiful planets like Ryuu, Mars, and Water-wone. But she couldn't find Planet Vegeta on there anywhere, it seemed that the school wasn't supporting it. But that was the planet she needed to go to, she needed to get out of her father's safe home and see the universe for what it truly was and she believed planet Vegeta was her ticket.

After she got dressed she made her way back to the school where she was going to request if she could go to Planet Vegeta. When she arrived there was about twenty million people wanting to go to there selected planets, Bulma had to wait about three hours before she finally got up to the dean's office. Happily she strolled right in and took her seat waiting for him to finish his paper work from the last girl's request. He looked up to see who was next and just rolled his eye's. "Well, well its Bulma Brief".

"Hello Mr. Krazier!" Bulma said with a happy tone, he rolled his eye's and asked "well miss Bulma what planet do you want to go to?" she smiled "Well Mr. Krazier for my first choice I would like to go to Planet Vegeta!" he spit out the coffee he had just drank, "Ppp.. Planet Vegeta! Why on earth would you want to go there!" Bulma looked stern, "Because sir, I need to really test my magic and what more than against a bunch of ape's!" she said. He looked at her in shock" But Bulma there not just ape's, they have a human form too." Bulma looked up at him "You mean you have actually seen a Saiyan!" Mr. Krazier turned his head toward a picture on the wall, "yes, once when I was a young man I happened to come across a Saiyan." he looked back at Bulma, "So you see why I have my concerns, miss Bulma." she turned her head softly, "But Mr. Krazier I still want to go, I mean I need to prove I'm a turn graduate of this school!" Bulma's plea to him was like his childhood self crying to fly to the evil planet, he knew it was very dangerous, but he also knew that Bulma knew it as well. He smiled "Bulma, I will allow you to go there for one month, and one month only. After that you must return home okay?" Bulma's face was shining, "yes sir!" she said with a giggle.

Bulma raced home to her father who was in his sitting room where he always was, but this time he was smoking. Bulma threw open the doors: "Father, father where are you?" she cried. King Brief raised his head up and said "I'm in the sitting room, where else at four O'clock?" Bulma looked up to the gold clock that hung above the fire place, "Oh, yeah how could I have forgotten?" she says with a giggle. Turning her face back down to her interested plea he asked, "What is it Bulma?" She through up a smile, "guess what daddy?" the King shrugged. " I know where I'm going to start my practice training. Her father looked up, "where Bulma?" she smiled "On Planet Vegeta!" her father froze, "Planet Vegeta! oh no your not!" he cried. "No daughter of mine is going to that hell!" he jumped up and ran over to his daughter, "Bulma please reconsider your choice! I can't have you go there!" she looked the other way, "fine father I guess I could choose another planet." relief returned to her father's eye's. "Thank you Bulma, thank you." for the rest of the day Bulma looked though other choices, but didn't want to go anywhere but Planet Vegeta. She had made her decision.
