I never expected that this story will be so popular. It got as many reviews as my BV story and much more follows and favourites! Thank you!

Truthfully I was playing with the idea, to make the previous chapter the last one, but then I decided to continue this a bit more and check out how the saiyans are doing 9 years from the last chapter. I could have posted this as a separate sequel, but I think it closely belongs together.

Almost 9 years passed since Bra's wish and by now the saiyans actually became the peacekeeper of the universe. More and more races asked them for help and at two occasions even Kibitoshin asked them to defeat some overlord.

"Briefs, how dare you fall asleep on class?!" Bra jumped up as Mr Kurogawa shouted in her ears.

"I'm terribly sorry!" She said, while the whole class was laughing.

"Do you think, just because of your family background, you are entitled not to pay attention?"

"It has nothing to do with my family" she answered "It's about the fact, that I already know everything, what you are teaching and I'm bored."

"Bored?!" Kurogawa asked, shouting.

As Bra had a sensitive hearing due to her saiyan genes, she shut her eyes tight, trying to lessen the pain. He looked angrily at the young girl, it was no secret that he disliked her. She was wearing a too tight strapless red top and a somewhat short black skirt, with sandals. He had no idea, how the young heir would dress, if not for Vegeta. He strictly objected whenever she wanted to wear something too sexy, but he couldn't entirely force her to wear "proper garments".

"Yes, I'm bored! But at least I don't distract the others, trying to talk with them! I'm just simply sleeping, not disturbing your lesson."

"Go to the principal's office at this instance!" He shouted again and Bra stepped towards the door, sighing.

As she walked towards the office, she seriously asked herself, what was wrong with her math teacher. All the other teachers tolerated her for not paying attention, until she did well on the tests (which she always did) and remained silent. But not Kurogawa. No! He had to send her to the principal.

"Mrs Brief! What a pleasant surprise!" The principal said, looking up from his file on his desk.

He was around 70 years old, with full white hair and bread. First, when the demi-saiyan met him, she couldn't help to think that he was Santa. Well, he was not as… overweighed, but still, the similarity was remarkable.

"Mr Claus" Bra nodded and sit down in front of his desk.

Yeah, his name; Claus, wasn't helping either, not to imagine him as Santa Claus. By now she knew that he was a nice and understanding man. He spent his whole life teaching children and he was actually one of the principals, who really cared. Not just because it was his job to care.

"I trust Mr Kurogawa sent you, right?"

"Good guess, sir."

"We both know, that I should tell you off and we are both all aware, that I won't. I'm too glad that you are not causing as much trouble as your brother did, with Goten. I sure wish Pan was like you! But just today she was again picking a fight at the cafeteria."

Bra had to smile. While she made no secret that she was a genius, she hid the fact, that she was engaged in material arts. Everybody though she was a bit clumsy girl, with an average ability in sports. She even pretended to be totally exhausted after PE classes. Somehow she was standing out already as she was, there was no need to appear even more strange. Pan on the other hand was an average student, but she never let anybody mess with her. By now she was well known and as she walked in the building, the students cleared out of her way, making sure she can pass them.

"Pan is a bit of a tomboy" Bra answered. "But believe me, she is trying her best to behave, just like me!"

"Yeah, somehow I'm also believing it and that's scares me a little. I cannot shake the feeling, that there is more than meets the eyes." Claus sighed, then after a short pause he continued: "As I need to keep up the appearance that I'm angry with you, I need to ask you to stay after classes and help to prepare the school for tomorrow's sport day."

Bra wasn't surprised to find out that Pan got the same punishment and so they placed the equipment on the schoolyard. Pan was almost 16 now and she was two classes below Bra. She was wearing a red Venus tank top, ink rinse carpi and black tennis shoes. Her raven hair reached until her shoulder and she simply wore it in a ponytail.

"It's so annoying" Pan sighed as she carried out a bar with Bra.

"Well, it's supposed to be heavy" Bra winked, looking at the bar.

"I so envy my father, he only had to put up with this theatre, when he was 16, but we… we are attending school since we are 6!"

"Come on Pan, it's not so bad!"

"Easy for you to say, you are popular!"

"I think you are quite famous yourself!"

"But not like you. Come on Bra, you know that every boy is in love with you!"

"And you have no idea, how annoying that is! I mean they are confessing me every day and my locker is full with love letters…"

"I sure would trade places with you. My dating life is a disaster… Every time I manage to get a date, something just goes wrong. Like last week; did that robber had to attack the bank when I was walking in front of it with Trevis?"

Bra had to concentrate not to laugh out loud. Pan was too much like Videl in her teens, every time she was in the city, she just had to prevent some criminal attack. Once her dates have seen her strength, they simply run off. She was somewhat scary anyhow, due to the fact that she beat up guys in the school as well and she never even broke a sweat.

"I'm quite sure there is somebody out there for you, who will fall in love with your unique character."

"Yeah…" Pan sighed. "I cannot believe you just turned down Dave today! I mean he is like… the best looking guy ever!"

"My heart belongs to Goten."

"I know you told him he has time until you are 18, but you will be 18 in about 2 months and right now he seems to be involved with Tracy. They are together since 5 months now, that's the longest relationship ever!"

"They will break up, she is not the right one for him."

"How do you know that?"

"It's obvious. Because it's me!"

Pan had to laugh hearing this remark. Bra just had so much confidence in herself, that sometimes it still made her wonder where that is coming from. Then, as she thought about Bulma and Vegeta; it was no wonder Bra had such a personality. Truthfully Trunks was rather the odd one. He turned out to be quite normal for a man having such a family.

When Bra finally arrived home, she heard his father and Verdure "talking" in the kitchen from the hall. She decided to postpone dinner and went up to her room. While his father and uncle had a really good relationship, they argued almost as much as her father did with her mother. Bra had a feeling they were already on it since a while now and she decided to leave them alone.

"Did you seriously run away?" Vegeta asked, looking at his much younger brother.

"I did not run away, father knows exactly that I'm here. It's just… he refused to let me come here." Verdure explained, while he grabbed a plate and filled it with food.

He really liked to spend time on Earth and he felt like home in Capsule Corp. While he heard from some of the saiyans that his brother and the rest of the saiyans who lived on Earth were somewhat strange and humans were ever stranger, he liked spending time here. And while the castle was the home of the royal family, he found this house almost as fascinating, with all its human furniture and equipment. While neither his father not his brother thought much of the movies and series, he had found some, which were just awesome. When Trunks and Goten held a movie night, he also joined them lately.

Vegeta sighed, but didn't say anything, just continued to eat and watched silently as Verdure joined him at the counter. His brother reminded him of his own younger self. Verdure was restless, always wanted to go on some mission and learn. He was determined to become the strongest saiyan and be a wordy king. While Vegeta had no interest in ruling, Verdure was amazed by the might what their father had as a king. Right now he was supposed to learn about saiyan history, but he refused to remain on the planet and came to Earth to train with his brother. Vegeta was aware that his brother though he was some kind of god; he was totally mesmerised by his power.

"I know ruling is not just about power, but I can learn all that crap, once I'm the strongest" Verdure explained, when he finished eating.

"Come on, don't waste any time then!" Vegeta said and indicated his brother to follow him.

Verdure instantly had a bright smile on his face and jumped off from the chair. His enthusiasm for training matched Vegeta's and Goku's from every aspect. He wasn't a super saiyan yet, but from all the full-blooded saiyans only King Vegeta and Bardock managed to reach the level a couple of years ago. It seemed like turning into super saiyan was much easier for demi-saiyans for some unknown reason. Bra reached it at age 10 and Pan at age 11. Some others were close to it, like Garla, Gine, Radditz, Nappa and Kale, but even if the legend about the super saiyan turned out to be a little different, at least reaching the level still seemed something, what only a few could do.

"Why? Why can't I become a super saiyan?" Verdure asked 30 minutes later, when he was on his knees, trying to catch his breath.

"It's not easy, that's why!"

"It was easy enough for Trunks and Goten!"

"Gohan and Mirai Trunks also needed the rage to reach this level, hence not even all of them had it easy" Vegeta said, grabbing a bottle and drinking all of the water from it.

He wasn't tired at all and he didn't even need to turn to a super saiyan to beat Verdure. He was way stronger than him, even in his base form.

"Still, I'm the prince, I should be the best!"

Hearing that Vegeta had to laugh out aloud, causing his brother to look at him.

"Being a prince alone, doesn't mean a thing when it comes to true power. Look at Kakarott or Bardock! They were supposed to be 3rd class. They were 3rd class!"

"Yeah, I know… still… It just sucks how weak I'm. If Freeza would come now and try to blow up the planet, I might not be able to stop him!"

"Stop whining and get up!" Vegeta called and as soon as Verdure was standing, he attacked him.

It took an another hour until they finished the training for the day. By then Verdure was hardly able to walk and he felt like he had not a single body part, which wasn't hurting like hell. Still, he was happy. While Vegeta promised to train him, it was rare, that he took the fight with him somewhat seriously. As they stepped out of the gravity room, they looked at a really angry King:

"How dare you come here, when I ordered you to stay and study?"

"Now, that I had a proper training, I will do that" Verdure groaned. "I'm beat anyhow."

With that he disappeared, leaving his father and brother alone. As King Vegeta looked at his other son, Vegeta snapped:

"I have nothing to do with it!"

"No? Then who the hell was just now training him?"

"He came here on his own."

"Because he is like you! All he wants to do is train and he doesn't understand that being a king requires more than just physical strength."

"He will understand it soon enough" Vegeta answered. "Just send him on some dangerous mission and he will realise, tactic and strategy is also important to obtain victory."

The King looked at his older son, understanding that he referred to the time, when he was Freeza's soldier. Suddenly from a prince, he became a nobody; he was only a common fighter. It wasn't enough to know that Freeza was much more powerful than he was, but he had other warriors at his disposal, who were also much stronger than the saiyans. Suddenly he had to face the truth, that while the saiyans were a warrior race, there were other species, who matched or exceeded their powers. The only way he was able to survive some of the mission was, because he learned to use his head and he developed master strategies. While the King was interested in the time, when Vegeta executed Freeza's orders, he never really learned much about those years. But at least he heard much about the happenings after he first arrived to Earth. Especially during the first year after Vegetasei was resurrected, he watched him and his family curiously. He couldn't understand his relationship with Trunks and Bra, as it was nothing like what the saiyans had with their children. Hell, saiyans did not really have any relationship with their children! Now, when he looked at Verdure, sometimes he was still surprised how he raised him. He was really his father and while he wanted him to become a mighty ruler, it wasn't the only thing, what was important to him. Not anymore. Sometimes he had pangs of conscience, because he never had this kind of relationship with Vegeta. Well, he wasn't even aware that he was able to feel this way! So much changed during the last 9 years and in a sense he was almost grateful for Freeza for destroying Vegetasei. Without him, the saiyans would have remained bloodthirsty and cruel and regardless how stupid humans were, their influence also played an important role.

"Maybe it's not such a bad idea" King Vegeta nodded, then after saying goodbye, he teleported back to Vegetasei.

"I sure envy Verdure" Bra said, when Vegeta entered the kitchen. "I would so much more train then go to this stupid school."

"You know, I always agreed with that" the prince answered, opening the fridge.

"I know. We heard that argument with Trunks a couple of times" Bra giggled, thinking back how many times she had to woke up in the morning hearing them shouting with each other.

By now she was sure the whole neighbourhood was used to them and knew a lot more about the family, then they intended to share.

One day as Bra entered the living room she found Goten there and he looked pissed.

"Where is Trunks?" She asked, sitting down next to him on the couch.

She was sure Goten was waiting for her brother, because as much as she would have preferred it, Goten wasn't ever coming to visit her. Still, she could live with that for the time being, as even though he hung out with Trunks, Bra had a lot of opportunity to see him and talk with him. Mostly somebody else was also around, like Marron or Pan, but they always had a good time together.

"Beats me! He said he will be back by now" Goten answered and as he searched for his best friend's Ki, he added: "Still in the office."

"In the lab to be exact" Bra added. "While he really hates the board meetings, he just cannot ever come home in time, when he is working on a project. Poor Marron, I bet she is used to it by now."

"It's crazy that they are already married! I mean I'm only a year younger, but I haven't even got a relationship, which lasted longer than a couple of month!"

Trunks and Marron married four years ago, when she turned 20. Bra remembered how crazy it was, when they planned the wedding and at the end Trunks and Marron were happy, when it was finally over. Bulma wanted a big wedding, maybe because of the fact that she had only a small one when she married Vegeta. Truthfully it was a miracle they had a wedding at all back then, as the prince considered the whole thing a stupid Earthly costume. Bra thought it was cool and she enjoyed helping her mother picking up the decorations, the cake, the food and the design of the invitation. It was like a mental ward on the previous day and the only 2 person who managed to keep it cool were Goku and Vegeta. Goku mainly because he was only interested in food and Vegeta because… well, he was simply Vegeta. King Vegeta and Garla first couldn't imagine how a wedding planning could last for months, but they quickly realized that it can take even longer. While at the end everything was perfect, they couldn't understand why humans made mating so complicated in the first place. The first of their concerns was though the fact, that Trunks intended to marry a human. While Bra told her grandfather that she will marry Goten, he at least was a demi-saiyan and a strong one! But Marron was just a human. Sure they were surprised when they learned that she was also a fighter and capable of putting up the fight with several saiyans, still… the King hoped that at least he will marry somebody from the elite fighters. Garla and King Vegeta soon realized that they had no saying in the matter, while they couldn't understand how Vegeta could be ok with that. Sure he pointed out that both Kakarott and himself has a human mate, but they had no other choice as all the saiyans were dead for a while. Somehow by now they accepted Marron and at days that still confused the royal couple. Humans had a strange influence on them, which they only noticed once it was already too late.

"What about…" here Bra really needed to think hard to remember his current girlfriend's name "Tracy?"

"I think I cannot get any lower than that. She broke up with me!"

"Oh, so that's why you are angry!"

"Who said I'm angry?" Goten asked jumping up.

Realising how his temper risen, he quickly sit back, throwing an angry look at the grinning girl next to him.

"It's obvious. Anyhow, while you are allowed to dump girls on a weekly basis, can't one of them break up with you?"

"But nobody ever broke up with me!"

Bra had to laugh, seeing Goten's angry and confused face. Regardless what she was telling him, he just couldn't see the point. After 30 minutes of discussion, she finally asked:

"Were you in love with her?"

"No."

"Does it hurt, that she broke up with you?"

"It sure hurts my pride!"

"Please, I'm the one who should say things like that. Pride? Seriously?!"

"Well… yeah" the demi-saiyan answered, thinking about it for a moment. "I mean I think that something is wrong with me. My father married my mother when they were 18, Gohan fell in love with Videl at 17. Even Trunks managed to marry now and he is together with Marron, since he was 19. But me…"

"Sure, I see your point. But there are other examples, like my parents! Or Krillin and C18! You just need to find the right one and she might be closer, than you think."

Goten looked at Bra and for the first time he didn't see his best friend's sister - the little girl, who she once was - but a woman. She turned out to be quite stunning, which was no surprise as Bulma was also hot, when she was young and she looked extremely similar. Suddenly he remembered on her confession all those years ago and the talk they had about him becoming her boyfriend. But that was ages ago and Bra never said anything since then. He assumed she has already forgotten about it, as for sure he had. Yet, she wasn't the type who simply gave up something. As he was thinking about this he become conscious of the fact that he was hoping she still felt something for him. Why? Come on, he was 28 and she was only 18. Did that 10 years matter so much? It sure did, when she was 8, but now… now things were a little different.

"Crap!" He jumped up and left the house.

Bra looked after him somewhat surprised. She had no idea, what got into him, simply running away. It's not like she was implying anything, at least not really… Then it hit her. Could it be that Goten was actually thinking about her like a potential girlfriend? It would be about time, but she couldn't hope that it will be so simple.

"I could have sworn I felt Goten's Ki here" Trunks said as he entered the house a minute later.

"He was here, waiting for you" Bra nodded "but for some reason he decided to leave just a moment ago."

"What did you do with him?" Trunks asked.

"Nothing, I swear! We were just talking."

Trunks looked at Bra for a little longer, than left the house and flew after his best friend."
