Finding you - Chapter 11

"Stop touching, woman!" Vegeta roared as Bulma once again brushed over his tail, making him feel weak for a while. And he hated nothing more than feeling weak.

"Stop screaming! It's tight in here; I don't do it because I want to!" Bulma yelled right back at him. Momentarily she had a really bad temper, because it was tight, her hair was tickling her nose, she was sweating and this handsome guy beside her was screaming into her sensitive ear!

"I don't care what you want to do or what you don't want to do! Stop touching me this instant or you won't touch anything anymore for the rest of your life!"

"Oh, shut the hell up already! My ear hurts you freak!" Bulma growled into his face which apparently was right before her. To be exact they were sitting nose to nose to each other. She felt herself blushing as Vegeta answered again and his breath caressed her lips softly. Goodness, her hormones were driving her crazy!

"Woman, you will stop speaking to me or I'm going to rip your tongue out!"

'Yes, rip it out, rip it out, rip it – What am I thinking?' Bulma shook her head fiercely. Vegeta just frowned. What was that woman doing? Was she crazy? He ignored her as he looked out of the round little window as he asked her where they were going.

"To Kakarott." She answered as she finally had her self-discipline back. Vegeta flinched at the name, but not enough to let Bulma notice it. So they were flying to him. He smirked. Well, where he was, there was the girl. And the girl meant power…

I felt dead. It was the point in my life where I absolutely was sure how it felt to be dead. It felt empty. I felt empty. And I missed him…desperately.

My stomach was still bleeding and I wondered why I was still alive anyway. I remembered how this pink asshole pushed his hand right through me. And what was the thing I saw? This yellow something. Did that come out...out of me?

As I moved my head I saw the same thing again before I fell unconscious after my encounter with this guy named Freiza: My blood was painting the floor and the room I was in was dark. The only difference now, I was alone. Trying to move my body and feeling the pain I robbed to the nearest door. I didn't know why he hadn't killed me. I was sure he wanted to, but obviously he didn't. And now I wanted to escape, although my body screamed and my mind told me I couldn't, I just had to. My will was strong enough and after some time I actually was able to stay. I couldn't see straight and the world around me started to turn as I took one step after another. I held the bleeding spot and put some pressure on it.

"I don't know why I'm living, but I won't lay still and wait till death comes." I was mumbling to myself as motivation.

Taking my tired self to the door I peeked around the corner and saw absolutely nothing. It was as if everybody was gone in an instant. Vanished into nothingness; leaving me here, an unimportant thing which was sooner or later going to die. I huffed because I felt my last strength leaving me faster than I had expected. I gritted my teeth and crawled forward, just away from here, always looking forward. I had an idea in my mind but I absolutely had no clue how I should fulfil it. I had no idea where I was but I knew my only choice was finding one of those capsules...But then again: If I found this thing what was I supposed to do? Typing anything into it with the last hope it would bring me to Kakarott? I shook my head in frustration. Why did I leave him at that moment? Because I couldn't watch him fighting with such a facial expression? He was just enjoying himself, it was...hurtful. But now I just wished he would come for me...I was so stupid!

I realized it as I needed a break. Leaning against the wall I breathed in an out. The pain in my stomach was bearable now and I wasn't loosing that much blood anymore. But I guessed it was because I nearly had anymore blood inside of me...

After some moments I started to move again. I had no time to stay here and wait for something, somebody who wasn't supposed to come anytime soon. As I still didn't cross any living forms I began to wonder. Why did everybody leave? Why was it so silent? Did they really think I was dead? I smiled. Well, if I had left somebody looking like me, I would have thought he was going to die too. Kakarott would scold me by now, to even think I would say goodbye to my own life. So, up to go, Chichi! When did you become a crybaby?, I said to myself and took one step after another. I was going to make it – somehow!

"What the hell happened here?", Bulma asked in disbelief as she landed on her planet, which looked like one giant desert and only two people were standing there, or to be specific, one was staying while the other was kneeling on the ground looking quite desperate. Vegeta looked around and thought to himself, that this lowlife planet exactly looked like this woman: Cheap and nothing special.

Bulma ran towards those two and repeated: "What the hell happened here? Where are the others? How's the city? Is everybody alright?"

Krilling only looked at her with a sad expression while Kakarott didn't even seem like he heard her. Well, it was more as if he forgot there were people beside him at all. He was mumbling something but Bulma wasn't able to understand him so she just waited for an answer to her questions.

"They are gone.", Krillin finally said after Bulma caught her breath and waited impatiently.

"Gone? Where to?"

"The people who weren't injured could flee. The others are dead..." He paused as he watched her hurt expression. "And Chi...", Krillin continued looking at Kakarott as he flinched, "...made a deal to stop the fighting, we couldn't win..."

"So the girl is gone?", Vegeta asked who silently listened to everything, not caring about his best friend. Well, he really didn't care although he didn't understand his behaviour either nor wanted to understand it. Kakarott stopped breathing for a while after he heard this familiar voice. Krillin nodded as Bulma tried to stop the tears.

"Hmm...So I can't use her then...shit." He mumbled more to himself but Kakarott heard him, of course. In seconds he stood up and punched Vegeta's face. Vegeta saw his move coming and stopped him, looking him into the eyes emotionless.

"What do you want to do with her?", Kakarott screamed in rage.

"Use her, so that I can defeat him." Vegeta answered coldly. "You want to be freed as much as I, so stop pretending to be so weak. You look disgusting."

"You...you with your fucking...", Kakarott lost his words. He was too angry to be able to talk. He just wanted to destroy something. He turned around in frustration or he would destroy something big, like the planet they were standing on.

"Freiza has her now I guess." Vegeta smiled. "Should be fun to defeat him now, after he thinks he has the power."

"What power?", Bulma wanted to know now but Vegeta ignored her perfectly and walked away. "Hey, where do you think you are going?" Bulma yelled after him as she saw he went towards her travelling machine. "Don't you dare use my invention!", she warned him as she run after him. But Vegeta still didn't see her. He stood still again and said: "Kakarott. If you want to save her, than you should do what I am going to do. Go to Namek and kill him. But if I am there before you, then I AM going to use her as my own. So don't say I didn't warn you." And with that he stepped inside of Bulmas travelling machine and took off.

"I don't believe this arrogant, stupid bastard!", Bulma shouted in anger as she watched him fly away, then turned around and run to Kakarott, slapped him across the face and ignored the death glare he sent her.

"Don't be a crybaby and do something! You are the chosen one, so fulfil your destiny and save her!"

"But..."

"Don't but me! Do it and stop your whining! If you really love her, then you shouldn't think but just go to her. Or do you really want to give up?"

Kakarott looked at her crying but determined face with empty eyes then breathed in and looked into the sky.

"So what?" Bulma unfriendly asked him, wanting to know his final decision.

His eyes got darker as he looked at them both. "Let's go."

I don't know how long it took me to finally find the room with those capsules. On my way there I was walking into many rooms but the most disgusting one beside the room with weird looking machines was the room in which little babies were swimming in a green substance.

I had the urge to vomit as I recognized different races, like purple little monsters with six fingers, or human like ones who had a tail like a snake and then there was one who looked like Kakarott and one who looked like...me. It wasn't female, but it was one of my kinds. It was small, with black hairs, cute puffy cheeks, tiny feet and a calm expression. I couldn't stop my tears as I touched the glass in which it was floating. This sad little creature was...it was a part of a collection. This sick bastard was collecting babies of those races he completely destroyed!

I mean, it didn't take me long to understand that he was the one who was responsible for all the misery in space. Just looking at him was horrible. But to know that someone like him touched me was a thought I didn't want to think till the end.

I left the baby-room as quickly as I could. I couldn't stand watching them anymore. My eyes hurt after crying so much and my nose was running as I basically ran to the next room, desperately searching for the transportation I hoped to find soon.

And then I finally stood before them. There they were, standing next to each other in a fine line, waiting for me use them. I couldn't hold my tears back again, and my red and hurting eyes weren't important anymore.

I just had one image in my head as I slowly reached for the first capsule standing next to me: Running into his arms, hearing his voice, feeling his warmth. Gosh, I swore to myself, that I didn't want to miss any of it anymore, even in death I would find him again.

Just before I could crawl on the red seat a rumpling sound took my attention back to the outside world and an aftershock run through my body. This feeling, I had the first time before the ship I was being held captive on was going to...sink? I have no idea what you call a space ship if it was going to explode...in space. But I know that this feeling is something I didn't want to experience again...

Stumbling over my feet I rushed to the nearest little round window and looked through it. I didn't hope to especially find something, but what I saw was just unbelievable.

It was pitch black outside, the sky was pregnant with yellow lightning and the rumbling sound came from the thunder which was the only company of the flashing and the thing I saw with my own eyes, which were widened in shock.

There, it was. Something big. Very big. A long tail, long nails, long teeth, red eyes, horns on top of its head. Dark green skin. A dragon.

"How should we go there? This Vegeta guy was taking the only one you had, didn't he?" Krillin asked and Bulma looked at him and smiled.

"You have no idea who you are talking to. Tata!" She playfully said and showed them two more machines, standing there innocently.

Krillin's face light up: "Bulma, sometimes I really would like to just kiss you!"

"Don't you dare, midget!", she warned him before she turned to Kakarott who breathed slowly in and out, analyzing the thing before him and thinking about what he was going to do. She was waiting for him, he knew. His heart felt her being still alive. There was an indescribable bond between them and he could feel her weak heartbeat next to his own. It gave him hope and the strength to enter the machine and face the task he was going to take.

Krillin and Bulma looked at each other as Kakarott was already leaving into thin air and then at the other machine standing before them. "Don't tell me I have to share my space with you..." Bulma practically cried.

Krillin puffed his cheeks. "Don't believe I like the idea either..."
