It's been days since the incident with Trunks and Vegeta, from then on Trunks would try to avoid his father as much as he could.
Goku had told Bulma what happened but didn't want to worry her, but knowing Bulma she was worried, she actually argued with Vegeta, and he was quiet the entire time as if she's right for yelling at him, it almost scared her.
Every time, Trunks would enter a room where Vegeta was, there was a lot of tension in the air, but it only gets worse…
Vegeta heard someone scream he wasn't sure where it came from because his mind was so clouded. He heard the scream become very low and soon gone…He looked down and there was blood all over his hands he looked at where he was, he was on top of Bulma he didn't remember how but he snapped her neck, even after snapping her neck, he kept going and blood squirted out of her precious neck. The last he remembered from her was that she loved him no matter what.
Vegeta got up from on top of Bulma and walked out of the room as if nothing happened. He walked into Trunks room, there is saw Trunks sitting at his desk doing his homework.
Trunks looked up to see his father and the blood all over him.
"Dad, what happened" Trunks asked, thought his father hurt himself in the GR.
"Here I'll get you a towel" Trunks as he got up innocently thinking there is nothing wrong with the scene.
As Trunks was in the bathroom getting a towel he wet it a little but before he turned off the faucet, his father grabbed a good grip from Trunks hair and pulled it back very harshly almost snapping his own son's neck.
Trunks was taken aback by surprised he never expected this.
"I don't need a towel dammit" Vegeta spat so angrily that Trunks wanted to beg for his life.
"Dad, what are you doing, I'm sorry if I did anything to upset you" Trunks said as the pain became remorse.
"Son, the only way I won't be upset is if you die, that way I don't have to live with the shame that was brought on to me, because of you, my life changed, I had to sit there and take care of your ass" Vegeta spat even more angrily with pure hatred in his eyes for his son.
Trunks was hurt by this, since when did his father feel like this, also no one mentioned to him he was a mistake, though, he was told that his father was mean to his mother, but they never got into details with him.
"But dad I love you" Trunks managed to say between his tears.
Before Trunks could say anything else Vegeta blasted the boy into pieced, and an evil smirk crossed his futures.
Vegeta woke up in a sweat, panting for his breath to come back to normal, his nightmare was only getting worse, he already felt horrible about what he's done to Trunks, if Goku wasn't there to help, his son would have been dead, like his dream.
He looked over to Bulma to make sure she's still alive and well, he relaxed at the sight of her angel looking face and easy breathing.
He got up, a sudden urge to blast Bulma was hitting him, he was just happy to see her alive and well, now he want s to blast her. He had no idea what was going on, but he had to fight it this time, and not let get in the way of his real self, whom his family loves, and he grew to love.
He needed air, but he wanted to check on Trunks, he knew he shouldn't bother, the kid hates him, but he had to make sure he's well and breathing.
He walked into Trunks room, only to find his room empty.
He used his senses to see where his son is. He found him; Vegeta went to the living room to see Trunks watching cartoons. The boy clearly looked exhausted. "Trunks" Vegeta called out, trying to sound soft, but wasn't working.
Trunks looked up, as if frightened by something "Oh hi dad" Trunks said while laying back down hesitantly, afraid whether his father is himself or not.
"Trunks, why aren't you in bed asleep" Vegeta said this time not hiding his worry, and Trunks caught that.
Trunks looked up and got up sitting on the couch and looked at his father.
"I couldn't sleep" he simply said, but the way it was said, he meant to say something else, and Vegeta knew that.
There was an intense silence floating in the air, Trunks was very uncomfortable, and not to mention afraid of his own father, he's never been afraid of anything, especially not his father. He looked up to his dad, which was like his best friend, aside from Goten.
Vegeta noticed everything, he noticed his son is not comfortable around him anymore, he noticed how tense he is getting, and what broke his heart the most was that his son is afraid of him.
"Son" Vegeta began but couldn't continue, the look on Trunks pleading eyes really hurt him to no words.
"Yeah dad" Trunks said, waiting for something anything for his father to confirm that he would never hurt them, or him again.
"You should get back to sleep" with that said Vegeta walked up the stairs back to his and Bulma's room.
Trunks wanted to say something, he wanted to know why this was happening why his father did what he did the other day to him, and he needed answers.
Trunks did the outmost thing he connected with him telepathically "Dad, please tell me what's wrong, i can help you". Trunks said almost wanting to cry, he saw his father stop midway up the stairs, but only stop for a few seconds and kept walking.
Trunks knew his father heard him loud and clear, but never wanted help.
Vegeta reached his and Bulma's room, he looked at the time, it was only 2AM he stopped he didn't see his wife, she must be in the bathroom he thought.
There he heard the toilet flush and the water running. Bulma came out of the bathroom, and looked at her husband, still mad about the incident.
"I was just about to look for you" Bulma said with her big blue eyes glooming through the darkness.
"I was only getting a drink of water" Vegeta felt like there was sand in his mouth for lying, never once had he lied to his wife, and now he's starting to.
Bulma looked at her husband, she thought about what Goku told her, and she knew she had to do something before things got out of hand.
Vegeta was about to lay in bed when he heard her voice calling out to him.
"Vegeta, I know these nightmares of your are reoccurring, you need to tell me what they are about, I can help you, your son, won't sleep in his room because he's afraid of you, I want to know what's going on, Goku won't tell me, I want you to tell me" Bulma managed to say between her tears, her anger rising by the minute because her husband is so damn stubborn.
Vegeta is really annoyed, she has been nagging him about the nightmare since they started, and he would not tell her what they are about exactly, though, he gave her bits and pieces, she knows Trunks nightmares and her daughters, but what about his.
"For the last time, I don't need any help" Vegeta said, more aggressively than he intended to.
"Why, I'm your wife Vegeta, you should be able to tell me everything, it's not like I will tell anyone, your secrets are safe with me as they always been, you should know that" Bulma said as she is trying to calm down.
Bulma sat on the bed next to her husband, he wanted to comfort her, but he couldn't he was afraid that if he touched her, he might get violent, like what happened to Trunks, and he doesn't want to repeat the same mistake twice.
"I know your nightmares are nothing about your past, but they might have a connection, but I think your nightmares have a lot to do with us, which is why you attacked our son deliberately". Bulma said as calm as possible.
Vegeta looked at her, how she was always right he had no idea, and the slightest she isn't afraid.
"Exactly what do you think my dreams consist of" Vegeta said so soft that, Bulma gave a warm smile that her husband is opening up a little bit.
"I don't know, you tell me Vegeta, they are your dreams not mine" Bulma said as she waited for her prince to tell her something anything.
"What do you want me to tell you, that I've been having nightmares about killing my only family, or the fact that right now, I'm having the urge to snap your neck" Vegeta spat as he aggressively got up from the bed and left the room.
Bulma's eyes went wide, she wasn't sure what scared her more, the way Vegeta looked at her, or what he said, or the fact that her life and children's life is in danger.
Bulma knew sleep wasn't going to come to her, instead she needed to help her husband with this reduculus situation he's in before someone gets hurt. She thought about Trunks, how she made sure to always keep a close eye on him, to make sure Vegeta doesn't "unconsciously" hurt him.
Bulma headed down the stairs surprisingly she spot her son glaring at his father who is in the kitchen pouring a glass of milk, but he surely can tell his father is angry.
Bulma looks at her son, and questions him "Sweetie, what are you doing down here, and why aren't you asleep" she cooped his face with both her hands.
Trunks had a feeling there was going to be an argument, but he wasn't sure if he should leave his mother, alone with his father, he felt guilty for even thinking that, but as of right now, he didn't trust his father.
"Mom is everything okay" Trunks asked feeling stupid already, because he knew his mother would say everything is fine when in reality nothing was okay.
"Trunks everything's fine, just go to your room, I need to talk to your father" Bulma said in a low steady voice.
Trunks hesitated but nodded and went upstairs, glaring at his father, who seemed to be lost in thought.
Bulma walked in the kitchen, she wanted to know why Trunks was awake but she had to worry about that later, right now she needed answers from the prince.
"Vegeta, please tell me, what is happening to you, I hope this is not one of your sick troubles you're trying to pursue as you have with the BUU incident" Bulma said with anger flaring up her tired eyes, she was worried about him, yet he kept so distant from them all.
Vegeta looked up at her, but those eyes are not her Vegeta, then she remembered when Trunks told her the same thing, now she was clearly afraid of him, she was never afraid of this man, actually her and Goku were the only people that did not fear the prince, aside from Namek (Bulma's encounter).
"So you think I'm doing this to gain power" Vegeta spat so harsh, yet so low that only Bulma was able to hear him.
"N…No I don't I just want to help you" Bulma said sort of shaking with fear.
Bulma was feeling very uncomfortable with the way Vegeta was looking at her, very cold stare and it's not the same eyes she's known for 20 years no these were evil eyes. She felt like a psychotic killer is looking through her soul.
Vegeta could feel her shaking, he knew she was very frightened, he hated to see that, but something inside him, is happening he's not sure what it is, but he needed her to get out but the wrong words would come out of his mouth.
"What, suddenly you've become frightened of me" Vegeta said as he got up and stepped closer to her.
"You're my husband, I just want to help you, but you're making this harder on the both of us" Bulma managed to say without breaking down.
Bulma was brave she couldn't be afraid, that was how she won the prince heart he was strong, and brave. She needed to do the same to get him back, to snap him back to reality.
She stepped closer to him as she was trying to reach for his face he grabbed her neck, he didn't know what made him do that, but he was fighting within himself to stop the urge to snap his wife's neck.
"It's because of you, I had to stay in this forsaken planet you call earth, this planet was supposed to be history, blown into pieces" Vegeta said as he slammed Bulma into the wall with his hand still wrapped around her neck.
Bulma is struggling, she needed air, to her surprise Vegeta loosened his grip, and for a second there she saw all kinds of emotions flash through his eyes, but then back to this animal. She knew he was there somewhere, she thought she would be the only one to get him to snap out of it.
"Vegeta please, this isn't you talking, you wanted to stay, I gave you a choice, and you chose to stay for our son's sake, but as years went on you grew to love us all, you were happy, until now, why, tell me I can help you" Bulma said as tears rolled down her cheeks.
She reached out a hand to his cheeks, how much she's missed him, he's been so distant from her, from them all, ever since he hurt Trunks, she knew he felt guilty about the whole thing.
But something was making him do this, but what? His nightmare, but why? And why are her kids sharing his nightmare?
"Please Vegeta I love you" Bulma said as he soft hand were touching his cheeks.
Vegeta faught hard inside, he faught the urge to hurt his wife, he couldn't let that happen, he would not let something take over him, it's not who he is anymore.
Suddenly, he let go of her, and fell to the floor, on his knees, Bulma right next to him.
"You have to get away from me, you might get hurt" Vegeta said as the pain in his heart shooting up, memories of his life with his family flashing before him, the urge becoming stronger, but he is fighting it, as hard as he could, he couldn't let this take over him, if it does his family would die.
"Vegeta I'm not going anywhere, I'm going to help you stubborn ass" Bulma managed to say as her smart would get her into trouble.
Bulma's hard head was going to get her killed because Vegeta looked at her and attacked her. Bulma fell to the floor, and Vegeta came on top of her, Bulma trying to fight him, she wasn't sure what he was going to do, blast her into thin.
Vegeta took her hands and put them over her head, and gave the most horrifying glare he's ever gave anyone.
Vegeta slapping Bulma really hard as bruises started appearing on her face, Vegeta didn't care he wasn't being himself, and Bulma knew that.
"So you wanted to have a child with me, (Slap), look at what you've done to me, you've bared me two children instead of one, you've made me weak and soft, and now you must pay for the trouble and shame you have caused me" Vegeta said as he is hitting his wife.
Vegeta's power level going up, Bulma almost is going unconscious before she did; Trunks came out of nowhere in super Saiyan and kicked his father out of the way, much like what he did, to BUU back all those years ago.
"Mom! Are you okay" again another stupid question Trunks asked while he knew the answer, she would say she's fine even if she was dying.
This time his mother wasn't responding…
Well I hope you guys like this chapter, I know Vegeta is very harsh, but there a reason for that.
