Hey folks! Here's the second part of Chapter 5. Have fun !

Disclaimer: Oh how I wish I would...


He was furious by the time he was in his door room. How did she dare to wear something so sacred, especially to him? This necklace was given to every new queen. It was a sign that marked her unmistakeably as the new king's mate and the planet's new queen. She didn't have any right to wear it. It was a disgrace and ridiculed his heritage.

But then again, how did she get the necklace in the first place? Why did she have it anyways? Did the female know what it meant? The prince shook his head. He honestly didn't think she would wear it if she knew. It was obvious she didn't like him. She ran out of the room when they kissed, after all. There were no hard feelings left from his side, but he thought nontheless that she disliked him. He didn't want her to, though. It just didn't feel right, when he thought about it. They could treat the other silent, but somehow this wasn't an option either. The Prince couldn't kill her, so he had to deal with the girl and it wouldn't be good just to ignore each other. At that idea his chest began to hurt and a cold shiver ran down his spine. What the hell was that? Hmph.. Just coincidence.
He 'assured' himself pseudo obliviously.

Never mind, he told himself. He still hadn't found the answer to the question. He pushed his legs from the bed and stood up. He had been sitting on this bed long enough to know that he wouldn't get any cleverer if he stayed here. With new determination he went to the kitchen.

As the door slid open, he stated into the room. ''Girl, we have to talk.''

Immideatly the two other Saiyans stiffened but remained at their spot in the kitchen as to not interfere with the scene that was about to take place. Nappa and Radditz just watched as Vegeta seemed to stare wholes in Bulma's soul with his angry gaze. The Earthling had an almost identical facial expression as she stared into the Prince's depths. A few seconds passed by before she nodded and went straigt out of the kitchen, followed by the youngest Saiyan. She led them into the training chamber on the end of the hallway. As the door closed behind them she released an exhausted

breath. And before the male could even open his moulth, the human teenager began to speak.

''Vegeta, I'm sorry, I didn't know what the necklace meant. I had no idea it was somethings so special, except from the obvious and again I want to apologize. I won't wear it again. Do you want me to give it to you?''

The Saiyan no Ouij only nodded dumbfolded, trying his hardest to not let it show how he felt. He'd never expect that stubborn female to adjmit she was wrong, not to mention apologize. Now he felt guilty, he didn't even know why. The teen remembered how her face lit up in happiness (and shok) as she looked down to her necklace this morning. Yes, it was her necklace. It was given to her by some unknown party, but it was hers nontheless. It had never belonged to a man before, and he wouldn't break the tradition. And in the end, did it actually matter that she wore it? Well it wasn't like there would be a next queen of Vegeta-seji and he certainly wouldn't have a mate because his race was gone for good. Vegeta could tell that she really liked the pice of jewelery. Sighing in defeat, he shook his head slowly.

''No, keep it, wear it. Just remember always what it's worth, the money- and.. the memories.'' The Prince looked down to the floor. Why did he do this? The girl always made his stomach feel awkward and his actions somekind irrational. He had to be stronger than that, the told himself.

Bulma certainly didn't understand the mood swings, but she wasn't about to complain. He wanted her to keep it and he even approved her wearing it. She had never expected something like this. But she was happy he did. The heiress thought it was a shame to not wear this precious gift that filled her with unbelievable pride, every day. But at the same time she felt pity for the teenager in front of her. He was truly alone. Vegeta had his two comrades, though no parents, aunts or friends. He probably thought he wasn't even worth liking, or even loving. The blue haired girl thought different. Maybe he was stubborn, arrogant and too proud for his own good, but he was also strong- his body and soul- he was a good leader, and in a twisted way, her friend. She wanted to be his friend, too. She wanted to let him see how wonderful it could be to be able to enjoy one another. Without suspicion, withough being always on guard. As Bulma approached the young warrior and embraced him tightly, she promised herself she would show him all of it and more.

Then she floated almost three meters away from the prince and winked him to her with her finger. ''Alright Prince, show me what you've got'' She smirked.


The next two weeks passed by smoothly. There was little change in the routines of the four companions. Actually, there was only one thing that changed, and somehow it changed everything on the ship. Bulma and Vegeta sparred together. On regular basis.

He woke her up by ringing her, they sparred, afterwards she'd prepare with Radditz lunch while Vegeta trained with Nappa. Then she would make dinner alone since the three Saiyans trained all together in the evening because there was only few days left till they landed. Then, the humann would work on her gravity bracelet for Vegeta and at eleven, Nappa would spar wit her for an hour before everyone went to bed. For an outsider, it wouldn't seem like much of a change, but espacially Radditz and Nappa could tell that there was something different about the two youngsters. They were less stressed and sometimes they caughed the teenagers smirking at each other slightly different than before, when they thought the other didn't look. The older Saiyan's knew there was something going on between them without them being aware of it. Neither he nor his long haired companion knew what had happened two weeks ago at Bulma and Vegeta's 'talk' but it seemed to have been something certainly good.

One eveniung they all sat at the kitchen table and ate their dinner as the Prince of All Saiyans cleared his throat and raised his voice. ''Tomorrow will be the last day of our journey. The day after tomorrow we will land on Conarra-seji. Nappa and Radditz, you will buy fuel and food. Girl, you will go with me and buy training gear for all of us as well as the technical parts you need for the device.''All three of them nodded as Vegeta continued. '' We will take as much staff with us as we can for the case that something happenes to the spaceship during the first day. Bulma, you'll take all the things you need to build a capsule for our spaceship and the rest. We will meet in the evening of the first day at out spaceship. We are going to rest there for the night. Then after breakfast we will start the purging.'' He grabbed in the inside of his spandex and pulled a map out of it and began to unfold it on the table. As he pointed at a high mounatin on the map he said.

'' I will tell you the following only once, so listen good. This will be our meeting piont. The mountain is in the north east of the planet, as far as I know, there is a village on top of it. The people there die at last. Radditz, you will work in the south, Nappa in the north. I will pruge the east and west. Don't bother to destroy the buildings, just kill the people. Bulma, the first day you will build the capsule for the spaceship. We will see how far we get with the population. On the second day we will be purging together, the human only takes care of non living targets. Any questions?'' Vegeta asked with a voice that told you not dare and ask anything so his three listeners only nodded their heads once again.

''Good. Tomorrow, nobody will be training but eat and sleep as much as you can.'' He ordered, the whole time looking at Bulma.

The human gulped but for totaly different reasons than the purge. It was time. Tomorrow was Vegeta's birthday and time to give him his present. Thank Kami she finished it yesterday so she would be able to get a lot of sleep tonight. Yes, she was going to need all of her strengh even if she wouldn't fight anybody on Connara-seji. Vegeta had told her it would be tough. They had only five days to finish the mission and they had to make it all in four because they'd be shopping the first day.

As odd as it sounded, she wasn't scared one bit. It would be like tyding up a huge bedroom or something where she could show how strong and fearless she was (or pretended to be) and she wouoldn't let anything take her chance away to prove herself even more in the eyes of her prince. Wait a sec, since when had Vegeta begun to be her prince?


The next morning nobody woke her up. As she opened her eyes, they immediatly wandered to her clock. It was 12:00 a.m. As she looked for the other three ki's on the ship she noticed that she was the only one awake. Shrugging at her discovery she pulled her blankets away and peeled herself out of her sleeping bag. She folded everything nicely together and encapsulated the stuff. Today everybody would be more in the kitchen than usually and nobody had to see how untidy she actually was. She decapsulated (?) a towel and washed her face at the sink of the kitchen since she had nowhere else to do it and started to look through the drawers and cupboards for some things she would need to prepare their huge breakfast. She found the last waffle mix, some staff to bake bread and some things to make sandwiches, about 30 red 'eggs' of the size of a papaya. In her own capsules she found some peanut butter and jam bottles that were unopened, yet.

When she was halfways through preparing breakfast, she heard footsteps outside the kitchen. She sensed that it was the Prince and her heart almost skipped a beat. She hadn't even thought if the right words to say when she gve him the GB! What do I do now? Calm down Bulma, it's not the end of the world. She closed her eyes, inhaled deep and slowly and count to ten. As she opened her eyes again, the door slid open, and the Saiyan stepped in, only wearing boxers.

The girl stood in the kitchen, obviusly preparing breackfast herself since Radditz wasn't awake yet. He blinked one, twice, almost not believing she cooked something without guidance that smelled actually good, neither that he wasn't dreaming.

''Afternoon, Vegeta.'' She said. Did he have sudden hearing problems or did she actually sound nervous? A 'hmph' was his only respond.

He walked to the table and took his usual seat clumsily. ''When is it ready?'' He mumbeled, half sleeping.

'' Eyerything except a few waffles. You can start if you want.''

Nodding, the Prince stood up to take the plates of food of the deposit and put in on the table. He sat back and started stuffing his face with the surprisingly tasty minutes later, Bulma joined him. He didn't want to talk whille he was eating, actually he usually tried to avoid that, but as he regarded her he could see she had to say something. How pathetic. The female seemed to be afraid or something. As another minute passed by without her opening her moulth to say something, he sighed in exasperation.

''Spit it out already girl, I don't have all day.''

She was obviousl startled by his demand, but he didn't think much of it. She stood up quickly, grabbed something and walked back to the table. The heiress sat down, both hands behind her back.

Vegeta watched the display curiously but waited extraordinary patient for her to find the right words.

''Well Vegeta today is a special day. It's not only the day before our mission actually starts, but also that of ..your... birthday.'' The last parts were not more than a whisper but the Saiyan heard them anyways. Some seconds later she started again.

''And, well, you know I kind of thought that it would be appropriate to make you a gift. So I decided to give you something that will you serve at all times and prove itself very useful. Anyway'' She streched her right hand out to him and exposed the small royal blue bracelet. ''I truly hope you like it.'' She said with a hopeful tone and blushed cheeks. The Saiyan no Ouij stared a few seconds at the bracelet before he looked up to Bulm, a questioning eyebrow raised.

'' A devide that changes the gravity for the wearer at his will. The instant you put it on it will be invisible for anyone but you. It's voice controled, ki resistant and waterproof. So you will be able to train at any time of the day without actually training and nobody will know. It goes upt to 1000 times Vegeta-seij's gravity; use it carefully.'' Bulma explained, still blushing.

The male teenager couldn' believe her words. He just looked at her with the probably most dumb-looking face the universe had ever seen. Was such a device even possible? What would training be like with it? Could it help him to reach the level of the Super Saiyan of legend? Maybe it could assist him in his training to beat Frieza. But how did she even now that today was his birtday? He hadn't calebrated it since his father gave him to the lizard. Neither Nappa nor Radditz knew the date and he himself didn't bother to let anybody know for he didn't deem it necessary. So how did she know? Then a thoughts came to his mind and Vegeta shook his head slowly, almost exhausted.

''Your friend?'' It was supposed to sound like a statement but rather came out as a question.

Bulma's blush grew even deeper as she nodded. '' May I?''

The Prince only nodded and stretched an arm towards her. With one clip it was put on and invisible for Bulma. She asked'' Do you want to try it before we land? You don't need to use it on our mission, you know.'' Vegeta only nodded again. The girl sure had thought of everything.

''Ten times V.G'' The female stated. Immideatly Vegeta felt a lot heavier than usual, breathing was not as easy anymore. Smirking, he tried to get up, and needed almost a whole minute to stand straigt. It was truly challenging and he would enjoy every minute with his knew toy.

''Off.'' stated the human and everthing went back to normal. She looked at him expectantly as he sat down again. He had to admit it was very impressing that she had done that all by herself. Pride swelled his chest as he smiled a genuine smile at her. She smiled back and her eyes followed him as he went out of the room.

''This female has always something up her sleeve.'' He whispered amused, surprised and proud to himself as he entered his chamber to take a nap.
