A couple hours have past since Vegeta was informed as to why he had been sent to the past, and it appeared to create just as many questions as it had answered. Everyone's attention began to focus on the fact that he had said that he and Bulma had a child together. Now Bulma is rather confused as to why she would fall for an evil Saiyan like Vegeta. Confusion is abundant but a lot of questions are answered in this chapter. I figured it was necessary to explain the valentine in this chapter with a few flash backs along the way. Next chapter will be up soon.

"You idiot! What have you done now!" Vegeta yelled.

"I'm sorry Vegeta, its not my fault!" Goku said nervously. "Look on the bright side, ha,ha, at least you're taller now right?!"

Goku always managed to say the wrong thing at the wrong time. Vegeta's face began to turn red, as he growled in the normal fashion he does whenever he's about to power up.

"You better find away to fix this", Vegeta said as he cocked his head to the side.

How could this day get any worse, he thought.

--

It was getting late and everyone had gone home, except for Vegeta who was now laying down on Master Roshie's coach. He stared raptly at the ceiling, as he thought about all he had gone through.

(Flash back )

The room was a dim, reddish colour, and eerily quiet. Fast clicking noises, and occasional beeps could be heard as Vegeta pressed various glowing buttons upon a large metallic panel. He had been training in one of Mr. Briefs gravity chambers for several weeks.

"All set", he said, as he set the appropriate gravity level.

Vegeta had grown quite fond of Goku, or rather respected him, since they had defeated Kid Buu a year earlier. However he still felt he had a score to settle. To his annoyance, he felt the burden of being the Prince of Saiyans, and felt it was his duty to surpass Goku in power.

"Initiating gravity simulation", a robotic female voice said. "700 times earth's normal gravity."

His training began.

"Haaaaa!" Vegeta made a loud scream as he sent three fighting droids from all sides flying, as they smashed with great force against the wall of the chamber.

"I'll show you Kakarot! Ha,ha,ha!" He did a few back flips, turned around and blasted a small droid with his left hand. "I'll show you who the strongest fighter in the galaxy is!" He began laughing hysterically, but was interrupted by Bulma staring at him through a large projection screen. She gave him a angry scowl. Upon seeing her, Vegeta turned around and immediately began fighting again.

"Listen Vegeta!" she yelled to get his attention. "Stop ignoring me! When are you gonna stop training, huh? It's been over a month now! You haven't said a word to me or Trunks all...".

"Shut up woman!" Vegeta screamed. "Do you ever stop moving that blasted mouth of yours!"

She was taken aback, and looked as if she was about to cry. Though she did her best not to show it.

"Just leave me aloooooone!" He lifted his left hand suddenly blasted the screen into a million pieces. He kept training for several hours, and he began to pant heavily.

"I can't stop now", he said slowly. He walked over to the metal panel, and began to raise the gravity to 800. He felt it immediately, as he was dragged downward by the immense gravitational pull. He smashed against the ground, laying in a supine position, and leaving a crater where his body lay. He writhed in pain, and screamed as loud as he could, which was barely a whimper, as his chest was being compressed by it's own weight.

His eyes began to water (something that did not happen often), not at the prospect of dying, but because he realised at that moment how he had been treating Bulma with such ferocity. Constantly yelling at her, berating her with insults, and screaming at her with careless hatred. He knew she carried the brunt of his anger. If she was lucky, he would meet her with cold indifference. He couldn't stand the prospect of his last encounter with her being him yelling and leaving her crying.

His heart began pumping wildly. His muscles tightened as he looked quickly around the room, trying to find a way out of the situation. He realised he would have to use every last bit of energy he had, down to his very last cell in order to get out of that room alive.

"Aaaaaaaaaaah!", he screamed louder than he ever had, as he turned himself on his stomach. He could feel his ribs cracking. He used his arms to pick himself off the ground. His mind had cleared of all thought, and the only thing he could think of at that moment was his queen, Bulma. Images began to flash in his mind of her. He lifted himself off the ground, as every step he managed to take left a small crater on the ground.

Bulma had been sulking to herself, though she was used to his treatment. She was walking by the gravity chamber, oblivious to what what was going on inside. She turned her head toward one of the windows, walked over to it, and peeked inside the chamber. She could barely see anything in the darkness, except a shadow of a figure slowly walking towards the door.

It's about time, she thought. He better think twice if he thinks he can yell at me like that!

Smash! The force of an immense punch crashed open the door. Vegeta's form emerged from the doorway, as he collapsed on the ground. She looked at him distraught with intense fear. He looked badly beaten. His skin was completely covered in blood, and he looked as if he was on the brink of death.

"Vegeta...", she said softly.

To her surprise he managed to get up, regardless of the fact that most of his bones were broken, and he gave her a faint smile.

She felt the urge to smile back at him. He was going to be all right after all. However, she remembered how he had treated her. She couldn't believe he had the nerve to smile at her. She was about to slap him across the face, when she suddenly stopped. She thought at that moment he was just as insensible as she thought he should be, and held back her desire of slapping him and, instead, gave him a kiss on his cheek. This surprised even him. Even though they both thought this was charitable considering the way he had been acting, intense emotion had taken over them both. All they could do was smile.

On the next episode of Dragonball Z, Vegeta feels bad. The only way to make him feel better is for your review. :D Thanks!
