Chapter 7
Bulma woke up after a restful sleep, she sat up slowly holding the couch below her. She was feeling a little stiff from all the time she had spent on the thing, she stood up feeling pins and needles and walked for a bit trying to get feeling back in her body, she looked around with a stretch and a yawn, finding the Prince nowhere in site. She wanted to thank him for taken her pain away, even for someone like him who must have done awful things to do something so kind… There had to be some kindness in him right? He could of killed her and debunked her offer to help him but yet he didn't.
She tidied the mess she should of cleaned up awhile ago but the pain had been too much for her. Just a few more days and then her period would be over for another month but she had to consider the return time as well and she checked though her supplies with a worried look.
There wasn't enough here to last a week never mind the return trip, she couldn't wash her ruined clothing either, she flushed as she knew she was going to have to beg the Prince to do something he wouldn't agree to. He seemed focused on his goals and that alone, she brought up her navigational chart and saw a planet that would only take them a day to get to and wouldn't take them off there route too much.
She swallowed her pride and knocked on the door to the room that should of been hers.
" Prince Vegeta… It's important can we talk." She asked nervously
The Prince lay on the soft comfort bed face down, he heard the knock and the woman voice, he turned on the bed hearing.
" Please Vegeta it's vital I talk to you, I have a bit of an emergency on my hands."
The world emergency caught his Saiyan ear, what kind of emergency was there? He sat up and gathered the clothing he had discorded and put it back on, he still felt annoyed and disgusted with himself for thinking of her last night while he rid himself of lust and desire.
He opened the door and saw the woman with a flushed face fiddling with her hands in awkwardness.
" What is this emergency then? Are we under attack?" He asked with anticipation for a fight.
Although he was expecting to hear what he heard next.
" No its nothing like that, but I do need to stop a near by planet and buy more underwear and clothing, my period has ruined my clothing and I can't wash it.. I just don't have enough it last me.." She replied awkwardly
The Prince gave an unamused look, this is what she called an emergency? He couldn't help but snap in anger at her.
" This is what you call a emergency?"
Bulma felt irritated not only because of his words but his lack of understanding of her situation. She felt enraged because if she had been giving more time to prepare then she wouldn't be in this situation so she yelled back.
" Yes this is a emergency, I am not wearing blood stained clothing for the rest of this week. This is all your fault if you'd giving me time to bring the medication I need to control this then I wouldn't need to buy more clothing!"
Bulma felt flushed but she continued in her rant.
" This planet is a day away it won't take us off course for more then that, we will arrive at Namek A day later if anything."
She breathed deeply now as this was not how she wanted him to understand her situation and she looked down.
" It's not just for the rest of this week I need clothing for. Woman have this happen to them once a months.. I won't have anything for the journey home." She container upset
Her anger had calmed and was replaced by another emotion, she hated all this, she hated that it had to happen but she knew there wasn't much she could do stop it.
Vegeta looked at her stunned all that anger over clothing, the fact she was so unafraid to yell at him..Yet saw her flushed face and sad look, he wanted to get to Namek and put this woman to use as she was nothing but a hindrance so far.
" Fine!" He replied sharply " Let me see where this planet this is?"
She nodded and took him to the screen and showed him where she needed to be, he knew this planet from his early years. He been there with his father to broker a deal and he'd done some unrepeatable things to a kid of the royal family, so the deal had falling through and he was wanted on that planet for crimes against royalty.
He wondered if he was still wanted there as it had happened many years ago, well he had changed since his youth, but getting different clothing could help disgust he was that sane Saiyan. Sure he could destroy them all, but he wanted to keep his presence on the down low. After all if any word if his wear about spread to Frieza then he and her would be killed.
Yet Vegeta had to work out how to obtain his space credit and use it without anyone knowing, well he knew one way of doing that.
" When we get to this planet why don't you pick out what you need, I have business to attend to in order go get the money we need to buy anything." Vegeta suggested coldly
Bulma smiled as she sat down feeling a little headed.
" Your not going to rob a bank are you?" She jokily asked
Vegeta eyed her up not understanding the humour and replied sharply
"No! "
Bulma waved her hands.
" Relax it's a joke, although I am kind of a real concerned." She replied lightly
She opened a Capsule so she could get a drink of water to cool herself down.
'When I'm alone I can transmit my location again, this is prefect.'
She smirked to herself making sure he didn't see it. She felt a bit better all around but she wondered how long his Ki would keep the cramps away.
Now they just had to waste this days away and she could do what she needed.
….
Vegeta knew why he hated this planet, he knew why he had beaten on the royal family's child, why had the Earth woman pick this planet above all others?
He looked to her as she flew the space Capsule down to the planet. She was focused and had assured him there would be no full moon while they were there. Vegeta was kind of fascinated by how she could know such a thing, what kind of intellect did the woman process?
She proved her ability to build, but her mind was beyond comprehension, it made him want to have it to himself. Frieza would abuse such wit, the earthlings who he'd barley interacted with seem to dismiss her but her could use her in his life.
The ship landed a bit clunky outside the city, it landed in a place that they could stay hidden as he had demanded that they do that.
He listen as the woman grunted in annoyance.
" Blasted machine, I'm not used to flying it."
He noted her grumpy nature again, she seemed to switch moods a lot more and he noticed it more after she started this period nonsense. He didn't like being taken away from his goal, but his commodity was nothing if persuasive . She looked to the city in amazement, he saw excitement and she uncontrollable grabbed his hand and began to pull at him.
" I am on an alien world and I get to see an alien culture, we need to go."
He took his hand back roughly and looked to the woman defiantly.
" I told you I have business to attend to before I join up with you, there is a tavern called the leaping lion meet me there at 12 pm this planets time. There have clocks here so don't worry about nonsense, just bring whatever you need to that place and I'll buy it." He picked her up and her up and flew her into the city, Bulma felt her mood sour again as she watched him walked away from the alley way out of site and disappeared into the crowd.
