Hearing the knock on the door, Bulma sighed as she walked toward it to open the door. "I swear if Yamcha is crawling back….." But then she stopped as her eyes went wide to see Tien standing there, hand in hand with a beautiful woman with black hair and green eyes. "Tien what's going on?"

With a sigh as Bulma stepped to the side, Tien walked in with Risa and Chiaotsu. "You know I think it would do you some good to get out into the country for a while. This city life is crazy."

"Yeah but I would go insane. Who is she Tien?" Bulma moved around so that she was standing in front of them again.

Already braced for the creaming reaction she was going to have, Tien moved his hand from hers to her waist. "Bulma meet Risa. My wife."

"You're wife!"

Flinching as her eyes went wide, Risa stepped closer to Tien. He warned her that this woman might be a little loud and hyper. But she didn't understand why it was so shocking.

With a sigh as he rubbed his neck, Tien groaned. "Yes Bulma my wife. Could you please not act like it is the strangest thing in the world? After all Master Roshi told us that Goku and Chichi got married too."

Nodding as she looked toward a side door, Bulma was shaking some now. "Yeah I know but that isn't it Tien. Come on." She then reached out and grabbed Risa's hand and pulled her as she ran down the hall and into a room that looked like they walked outside. "Oh man that was close."

"What was close? What is going on Bulma?" With a wide eyed and slightly shaking Risa back in his arms, Tien glared at her. She always acted strange but this was beyond even her.

Going and sitting on a bench, Bulma sighed. "It isn't so shocking that you got married Tien that wasn't what that was about. Someone is here looking for you and I don't think that she is going to take too kindly to you having a wife if you know what I mean."

Blinking as he looked at her, Tien let his head fall to the side then flinched when he realized who she was talking about. "Launch is here!?"

"That's right. She came wanting to get me and Yamcha to take her out to find you since you weren't where you had been for a while." Seeing the question in the woman's eyes as she looked down, Bulma smiled. "OH don't worry. It was always one sided."

Looking down at Risa, Tien sighed as he reached up and made her look at him. "I told you about her before. The girl I know that changes her entire attitude when she sneezes."

Now recognizing the name Risa gasped then smiled. "Now I remember." Though she was worried that there was another woman there that he cared about before her. He gave her his last name, but not having many friends, and never being in a relationship with someone before, this was kind new to her still.

Seeing her reaction, Tien only smiled. He understood completely why she was acting that way. And he would just take it in stride until she was more sure of herself. Turning serious eyes back to Bulma, Tien let concern fly through his eyes. "I am actually here because of Risa. I stopped by Master Roshi's but he said he wanted to 'check her out' and that wasn't going to happen. So he sent me here."

Giving the girl in his arms an odd look, Bulma blinked her eyes as she stood up. "What about her she looks fine to me."

"Bulma! Yo where did you go! You going to take me to find Tien or not?!"

Everyone flinching at the voice, Bulma raced over and locked the door. "OH man I wish she would just sneeze already and leave!"

Floating up to look Tien in the face, Chiaotsu smiled. "Why not her take Risa and talk to her about what is going on, and she can send Launch in here. We can stir up dust and make her sneeze so she will be nice again."

"That is a perfect idea!" Bulma then reached out and grabbed Risa as she pulled her out the door letting it shut behind her before the blinking Tien could say anything. Nearly running into Launch as she rounded the corner. "Hey Launch. I was just coming to find you…"

"Who is she?" Launch looked at the scared woman with Bulma. She was puny and looked like she was terrified of her own shadow.

"This is my friend Risa that I went to school with." Bulma then turned and pointed at the door. "But Tien and Yamcha are in there if you wanna go see them."

"Really! That's awesome!" Launch then smacked Bulma on the back as she headed in the door letting it close.

Dropping her head Bulma sighed as she turned to Risa. "When she sneezes she has blue hair and eyes and is the polar opposite of what she is now. I don't know why when she is like this but she thinks that she loves Tien. He usually just avoids her since she won't listen when he has tried to tell her that nothing was ever going to happen." She then gave her an odd look as her head fell to the side. "So what is going on that Tien thinks something is wrong with you?"

Looking at the door, Risa smiled as she then looked down at her feet. "I think I know what is going on but I am not sure. I didn't want to tell him before I knew either. Do you think you could help me find out?"

"Help you find out with what?"

Smiling up into Bulma's blue eyes, Risa laughed. "I think that I am pregnant. But I am not sure either and I don't want to get his hopes up if I am not really and just over thinking it."

With a sigh, Bulma nodded as she crossed her arms with a smile. "I see. Yeah I can understand that. Sure I can help you, just follow me." Bulma then lead her way into one of the many labs that they had there. "This is a small lab that my dad uses for little things with the animals he tries to get to breed. It never works out though. But one thing he has in here is a pregnancy test."

"What is a pregnancy test?" Moving to stand next to her, Risa watched as she pulled some small little stick thing out of the drawer. "What is it?"

Giving her an odd look, Bulma let her head fall to the side. "Oh man do you mean that you really don't know what this is?"

Shaking her head as she dropped her eyes, Risa hugged herself. "I don't. Mama and Papa lived deep in the mountains. We only came to town once in a while. Usually when the World Martial Arts Tournament was going on. And never for more than a day."

With a smile, Bulma put a hand on her hip and dropped the pregnancy test in a cup and handed it to her. "Well to be simple and blunt, pee in the cup and take the pink end of the test off and dip the stick in it. If there is one line, then you are not and may want to see a doctor to make Tien happy. If you get two lines then you are pregnant."

"Thank you." Risa couldn't help the smile as she took the cup and all but ran into the bathroom.

"Achew!"

With a sigh to finally see Launch go from blond to blue hair, Tien dropped down from the tree with a sigh. "You know Launch you may want to see a doctor about your sneezing."

Blinking as she looked around, Launch had no clue where was then landed on Tien. "Where am I and how did I get here?"

With a sigh as he walked on past her for the door, Tien sighed. "You turned into the blond Launch and came here demanding that Bulma and Yamcha take you to find me." Stopping at the door as she blinked, Tien turned back to her and sighed. "Sorry to inform her, but I am married now. Just so you know. Come on Chiaotsu let's find Bulma and Risa."

Walking out of the small bathroom, Risa smiled as her tears streamed down her face. Holding the test in both her hands. She was right! She was pregnant!

"So what did it say?"

Looking up at Bulma she smiled as she gave a sharp nod. "I am. Can we go back to Tien now?"

Giving her a more serious look, Bulma sighed. "You know Risa, you didn't even know what the pregnancy test was or how to use it. Do you got any clue what it is like to give birth to a baby?" When all she got was a sigh as she dropped her head, Bulma sat down and pulled a piece of paper over to her. "Alright then let me see. When were you married?"

Moving to the desk to stand next to Bulma, Risa blinked. "Two weeks ago. That was why I didn't say anything to him. I didn't think you could tell this soon."

"Some people you can. Now be exact. Was it exactly fourteen days ago?"

Nodding Risa sighed. "Yes we were married fourteen days ago, but our first time was sixteen days ago."

Nodding as she wrote it down, Bulma then pulled out a calendar. "And yes some people start showing signs right away that they are pregnant. My mom started to have morning sickness within a week of getting pregnant with me. It just depends on the woman's body and if it is going to show signs early or later. This is August so you would be due to have the baby in April."

"So spring then?" With a smile as she looked down at her still flat belly, Risa couldn't help but laugh. "That is perfect."

With a laugh, Bulma stood up and lead her out of the lab. "Well let's get you back to Tien so you guys can head home. And as much as I know that Tien isn't going to like it, you really need to come back to the city and stay here in March. That way you can have a doctor deliver the baby so you know nothing goes wrong right?"

"Sure." She didn't have a problem with that and knew that Tien wouldn't either if he knew that is what she wanted. Right now, she was just elated that she was going to be a mother! Six months ago she would have never thought that she would be married to the most wonderful man in the world and a mother to be in just a few short weeks. But she wouldn't change it at all.
