Finally the first chapter with Bra in it. It's important to note that in this story Bra was born around the same time as Goten was. Thanks for the reviews so far and keep them coming! ^_^
Late at night 14 year old Bra rustled in her sleep. She slowly opened her eyes, sat up, and yawned.
"1 am?" She said as she looked at her clock.
She stepped out onto her balcony and looked up at the star filled sky. Everyone of the twinkles in the sky reminded her of the far off dreams she has. Dreams that she knew were probably out of her reach forever. She looked at a pair of stars. One was a bright and large star and the one next to it was small. It made her think of herself and her father. She longed to have a true father. Not a king focused on his own strength. When Vegeta became king, Bra lost her dad.
"Why don't you hold me anymore, daddy?" she said to herself or so she thought.
"You shouldn't be focused on such meaningless things, sister." Trunks said as he entered his sister's room.
Bra turned around and looked at Trunks annoyed, "Were you watching me Trunks? Why aren't you asleep?"
Trunks walked over to his sister and slapped her, "Don't use that tone with me. I'm a prince and I will be respected."
Bra was known for having her father's temper, but letting it come out on her brother probably wasn't a good idea.
She spit in her brother's face, "You're not a prince. You're a just a blind fool following his father's orders just so you can earn his respect. You're too much of a coward to stand up to him, even though you know he's wrong."
Trunks punched his sister in the face knocking her to the ground, "You bitch!"
Trunks raised his hand to hit her again but when he sensed his father's ki outside in the hallway Trunks simply walked away leaving his sister on the floor crying.
Trunks walked down the hallway and tried to avoid his father. Vegeta had other plans as he grabbed his son's shoulder.
"I told you to keep an eye on her. I never said you could beat on my daughter!" Vegeta shouted as he punched Trunks in the stomach causing him to cough up some blood.
"You're pathetic." Vegeta scoffed at his son.
Trunks gritted his teeth. He failed again. It seemed like no matter how hard he tried, he could never seem to win his father's approval.
"I…. I'll try better next time, father." Trunks stammered.
Vegeta pushed his son away and said, "Get out of my sight you brat."
As Trunks walked away he whispered to himself, "Forgive me…Bra."
Bra sat on her floor wiping the blood off her lip. As Vegeta walked in he helped his daughter to her feet and handed her something to clean herself off with.
"What are you doing up this late?" Vegeta asked shouting.
"But daddy I…" She said.
"No buts. And stop acting like a child, Bra!" He interrupted.
She looked down and kept herself from crying.
"You're a saiyan princess. So start acting like it!" He said as he threw her on the bed and then walked out of her room, slamming the door behind him.
Once she knew her father was gone, Bra buried her head in her pillow and screamed.
As tears poured down her face she let out her true feelings, "Daddies are supposed to hold their babies when they're hurt! Not shout at them!"
Bulma sat up in her and Vegeta's bedroom. She thought about how Vegeta had changed since becoming a king. Though Bulma pretended like she supported her husband. In truth she missed her relationship with the Son family and the relationships she once shared with her husband and children. As she heard Vegeta stepping into the room, Bulma covered up and pretended to be asleep.
"Please wake up and let things be normal in the morning…" Bulma thought to herself.
After a few more minutes of crying Bra looked at the sky, thinking of the family she wish she could have. On the other side of the world Goten was just landing at his father's palace. He too looked at the sky thinking of the family he wish he could have. Two saiyans, two hearts, two destinies soon to become intertwined.
