Chapter 10

More than twelve years had gone now, Trunks grew up into a even more intelligent boy, who managed to win lots of prizes at his school. Being a great cientist-to-be he just received the news he would be sent to another planet, so he could present all of technology his school produced, he just had to convince his over protective mother...and this my friend ,was a hard task.

He then arrived home ready to burst the news and try and convince his mom to allow him to go, it was a golden chance, there was no refusing, he just couldn't throw that chance out the window, he wanted to go there and he would go there, no matter what.

Bulma was preparing lunch as he arrived, since she no longer worked at that children school, she only kept her other home jobs, washing, ironing, baby sitting and so on.

"How was school today Hun?"

"It was pretty great, nice news."

"Really". About?", she asked cheerfully as she loved to see her son happy.

"I only received a proposal, as one of the best students, to go present our school technology, and guess where! Another planet, could you believe that mom!"

Bulma then froze, she needed to know just which planet he intended on going.

"Which planet?", she asked carefully.

'Now she is gonna start her All-ways-to-say-no-mode.'

"The Red planet,"

"Red planet.", she started thinking...all red planets she knew ...Juu's is blue, Namekians is green...and sayan's are...RED.

"Vegeta-sei", she said startled.

"Yes, Vegeta-sei.", he said calmly as he rummaged through the pan full of food Bulma had just finished making.

"You are not going."

"What! ? Why am I not going?"....he knew it was going to be hard.

"Because...because I said so. It's final."

"Why is it final? Why? Every time I ask something you just say no, no...I never did anything I wanted, if it wasn't because of the lack of money it was because you didn't want me to...You did it every time I could travel, every time I wanted to date a girl, every time I wanted a toy, every time I even asked about my father...always, just always, it's No. No wonder he left you before I was even born!"

"AND I'M GOING TO VEGETA-SEI WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT!", he stated as he left a crying Bulma at the kitchen.

Bulma just couldn't believe it, her once obeying son went against her will, wanting to go to the last very place she wanted him to go.

Some time later when Trunks rage had faded away, he came out of his room and went to talk to his mom, only to find her at her room still crying.

"Sorry mom, I didn't mean to upset you. I'm really sorry."

Still no reply.

"It's just that it's my big chance, I just can't throw it out the window only because you want me to."

"Trunks, I'm sorry if I've never been the mom you deserved, but please...just listen to me...you can't go there."

"You tell me good reasons, and I may think about it. Otherwise no can do."

"It's just that...that...I don't want you anywhere near that people...they are dangerous."

"Mom we've went through worse..."

"Trunks even if I have to put you in chains...you're not going there."

"I saw that it's impossible to talk to you.", he stormed out of her room even angrier than before.

'Just wait and see dear mother...wait and see."

---

After their little quarrel Trunks began to plot ways to get out of the house unnoticed, and since he waited till the last day to go and tell his mom about the trip, he had to escape that night...It was his only chance, if he failed, goodbye Vegeta-sei.

He then took all he needed to the trip and in the middle of the night 'escaped' his own house. He went through his window, jumped into a branch (since on his yard there was a tree that almost entered through his window), and then finally touched firm ground.

'Bye mom, didn't want it to be like this...but you made me do it after all.'

----

He then spent the last of the night in front of his school....

----

"Hey Trunks...wake up, wake up, we're almost leaving.", one girl who would go to Vegeta-sei as well advised him.

"Huh?" he stated a bit groggy from sleep.

"Too eager to travel? Arrived at what... 3 a.m?..."

"No, I'm going.", he said as he stood up took his belongings and headed to the spaceships.

Arriving there he and other few students were instructed about the do and do not do's of Vegeta-sei.

"Never talk to royalty if not allowed to, never look them directly in the eye, do not enter without permission and most importantly bow before them."

"Ok miss Swages."

"Now you will sleep...see you in six hours. Till Vegeta-sei."

---------

After those six hours, the students along with their teacher arrived at Vegeta-sei.

Bulma had just woke up from her messy night of sleep, and after several hours of intense thinking she decided to go and try to talk to Trunks again.

She knocked at his door, no reply.

Knocked again....still no reply.

She then decided to enter 'Maybe he is still sleeping.'

Little did she know her son was far, far away from there.

Trunks just couldn't believe what he was seeing...The red sky, the two moons, all those slaves and all the glory of that huge castle...It was like this castle had come from a Fairy Tale, but a little dark of course.

"Kinda Gothic"

"What did you say Trunks. ?"

"Oh, nothing just thinking out loud."

"Let's go!"

--

The castle's insides were just more intriguing than its outsides. It had tall walls all in a rich blue color with hints of bloody red and gold.

They were sent for one of those magnificent huge rooms so they could start with introductions.

Trunks and the others had to wait until King Vegeta finished training so he could go and see if Earth's technology was worth their money.

They sat there waiting and waiting, then they finally saw a figure approaching, he didn't seem to stop to greet them, but the most important fact was that he was shirtless, had flame-like hair and a had a big birth mark on his right shoulder...

'"Hey mom why do I have this thing on my shoulder, and you don't?"

"It's because your father have one, exactly like yours."

"Really?"

"Really."

xxx end of flashback xxx

Trunks who was no fool put two and two together. That man was his father, that's why his mom didn't want him to go there...that's the reason why, he just couldn't hold its grasp...It was just too much.

"Miss, please, who was that man who just passed us?"

"That one with the flame-like hair id King Vegeta, the one we are waiting for."

'That's not possible, my father is a...King...the King of Vegeta-sei..Could it be !?"
