Chapter 20

He was long gone by the time she woke up, but Bulma was not surprised. Neither Vegeta nor she needed any distractions today, for it symbolized the beginning of everything they had been working for these past three years. However being the adventurous girl that she was, Bulma was a bit excited. She couldn't wait to show the others a certain someone: "I can't wait to see their faces once they find out that it was Vegeta, out of all people, that is the father! They are going to totally freak!"

The blue haired woman jumped into the shower quickly to get ready. She wouldn't stay for the whole fight of course but she wanted to at least get a look at the androids. She was a scientist after all and was quite interested in the machines' makeup and ability. "Besides Vegeta would totally kill me if I stayed! I would be leaving open a weakness for him, blah, blah, blah," she mocked. Bulma often cursed her lack of strength because it kept her from seeing all of the action. It was times like these that she felt so useless and bored. At least this time she might be able to help since their enemies were machines: "And I am a mechanical genius after all!"

With this thought in mind, Bulma put on some khaki caprice, a short red top with an orange vest. She then applied some makeup, dried her hair, and grabbed Trunks to head out to the spot where the androids were supposed to appear. "Are you ready to see your Daddy in action, Baby Trunks?"

The infant laughed in response, making Bulma smile. Although she had matured a lot in three years she still was taking the morning far too lightly. Not once did she think of the consequences this day could bring. Vegeta and Goku had been training non-stop and that should be enough… right?

…

Vegeta soared through the air towards the island, which the androids were supposed to be on. He had not slept much but it didn't matter- he was ready! Kami knows how long he had waited and worked for this day: the day that he would surpass Kakkarot and show all of those losers how to kneel before a real prince! He had stayed with the woman for a few hours, enjoying the serenity of morning but now he had his game face on and was ready for carnage. The warrior could virtually taste the blood that was about to be spilled today and his mouth watered for it. His soul burned for heat of battle. However, patience would have to be in order. Vegeta, being the true Saiyan Prince that he was, refused to just show up and fight like everyone else- No… He would make a grand entrance fit for a king! "And then Kakkarot we will see who is the real Super Saiyan!"

…

Bulma zoomed through the air like a mad woman towards that island of destiny. Social Services definitely would not have been happy to know that she was doing flips in the air with her new born in the aircraft!

Finally the island was in sight! Bulma was shocked at how populated it was: "Weird, how come I have never heard of this city then?"

She decided that the deserted mountain next to the city would be a good spot to wait for Goku in the others. "I wonder if Vegeta is already here or if he is going to meet up with us here." Her heart skipped a beat when she saw a figure with spiky hair standing with Tien on one of the flat surfaces of the mountain. However she was heartily disappointed when she realized it was DEFINITELY not Vegeta: "Oh its Yamcha… What did he do to his hair! What a poser, right Trunks?" Vegeta's son clapped his hands and Bulma marveled at how well he responded to everything.

"Hey Bulma!" Yamcha waved his arms like an idiot, "Over here!"

She smiled at her Ex and landed the ship gracefully. "Hey guys!" She shouted as she pulled baby Trunks from his car seat (Or I guess ship seat in this case?).

Both men were about to respond but lost their words once they saw the little bundle of joy in her arms. Even though Yamcha knew that she had given birth to Trunks it was still difficult for him to meet the facts face to face. That old familiar sting stabbed his heart: "Stay focused Yamcha! It's over… You accepted it- remember! We have the androids to worry about today! I just hope that I am strong enough!"

"Uh Bulma…?" Tien stared and pointed at the baby. "Do I even want to know?"

The proud mother smiled, "Just wait! I will explain once everyone else arrives!"

Yamcha whirled around, "You mean you are waiting around here?"

Bulma stared at his worried, scarred face. She could see the pain in his eyes and also a tint of humiliation. Of course it would only be a matter of time before everyone found out but it was going to be awkward for him. Bulma had always been his and now she was Vegeta's! They stared at each other for a few moments, both getting used to their new relationship as friends. "She looks good… I can't deny that! You can't even tell she had a baby!"

"Yes I am! I just want to see what the Androids look like and then I will head out. By the way, nice do Yamcha!"

The scarred man blushed and put his hand behind his head a little embarrassed, "Oh, uh, thanks…"

Tien looked back and forth between the two, "Wait a minute! Wouldn't you have seen his hair already since you two are together? Does that mean you aren't the father, Yamcha?"

A twitch of anguish passed across Yamcha's scarred face but he said nothing. "I told you I will explain everything once the others arrive!" Bulma replied.

Yamcha looked towards the sky trying to hold back these unwanted emotions when he saw four figures flying towards them, "Speak of the devils! Look its Goku and company!"

"Goku? Are you sure?" Tien asked skeptically.

Bulma looked up at the sky frantically trying to find her old friend, "Is Vegeta with them?"

Goku, Gohan, Krillin, and Piccolo were in full view now. Bulma's eyes brightened as she began to wave them over with Yamcha. Even though Vegeta was not with them she was still happy to see her old childhood friend. "I told you Tien! It's him! Hey Goku, down here!"

The four fighters floated down to their position. Yamcha tried to ask them why they were late but everyone had their eyes on Bulma… or rather that little creature in Bulma's arms. Even Goku, who knew about Trunks' existence, was shocked, "Bulma…"

"It is Bulma!" Gohan looked up at the blue eyed girl in shock. She was always changing her hair style so he expected her to look different but this time it was more than that. She was holding a baby and she looked older- not in a bad way, just more like a woman than a girl. "Is this really the same Bulma I went to Namek with?"

"Hey guys! Wow! You all have been working out, haven't you?" She teased, totally ignoring their wide eyes and opened mouths.

"Bulma! What in the world do you think you are doing out here?" Goku asked concerned. He knew that his childhood friend was courageous but this was a bit much. He remember what Trunks had told him and these Androids were nothing to mess around with!

"I've come to watch you fight, silly!" She said matter-a-factly, "Oh don't worry! I'll just stay for a while then I'll go home." Everyone could not believe how casual she was being- This day could be their last day on earth and she was just going to watch the fight like a movie and then return to the comforts of her home! But then again that was Bulma Briefs for you!

Krillin stepped forward, timidly as usual, and asked the question that was on everyone's mind, "He-He-… I, uh, I hope you don't think I'm crazy for asking… but what is the deal with the baby, Bulma?"

To make matters more awkward Gohan cut in before she could answer, "Is he your son, Yamcha? I bet he is!" Bulma had to keep herself from laughing at the question.

The poor man crossed his arms and scowled in humiliation, "He's not my kid!" No he had clearly found that out the hard way! Both Gohan and Krillin tore their eyes from the purple headed baby to gasp at Yamcha. This was a complete shock! He and Bulma had been dating for almost 10 years now! "Well if you think that's a shock, just wait!" Suddenly the anger disappeared in his voice. It was replaced with an unhealed sadness, which was clearly displayed by the furrowed brows and distress beaming from his eyes: "Wait until she tells you who the father really is!" The defeated man had to walk away at that point. He could not get upset over this again. He had promised that he would get through this- that he wouldn't bother her anymore. It was over… he knew that but this was like rubbing salt on an open wound.

Krillin and Gohan stared at his retreating figure, totally confused. Goku, however, rushed over to greet the new little one with a big laugh. "Ha-ha-ha I'll bet its Vegeta, isn't it!"

Bulma's eyes widened in shock, "How could he know that! I didn't tell a soul! And there is no way Vegeta could have told anyone- he is the one who said we couldn't even invite people to our wedding!"

Goku ignored her expression and proceeded to play with the boy, "Right, Trunks?"

Everyone's jaw dropped at the accusation. "VEGETA? NO WAY!" The whole idea seemed absolutely unfathomable! The Vegeta? The Vegeta who hates all feelings? The Vegeta who threatened to kill her on Namek? The Vegeta who tried to kill Goku and had a part in Yamcha's death? The Prince of all Saiyans? That Vegeta?

Vegeta, hiding nearby with a lowered power-level, watched the Z fighters with disgust as they found out about his son. "Idiots! The first thing they ask about is a baby! We have more important things at hand, you fools!"

Yamcha sat on a rock watching the whole scene from a distance. It was excruciating! He remembered the thoughts he had once had long ago. Fantasies of Bulma having his child and all of the Z fighters crowded around the infant, interested in it as they were now with Trunks… but that was not his child… and that was not his wife. Would he ever get over this? Or would he live for the rest of his life in an unsatisfied state as just her friend?

"Now who told you that, Goku? I wanted to keep it a secret! I was gonna surprise you guys!" Bulma asked disappointed. She had been looking forward to this all morning! She had a plan and everything, but that big lunk-head ruined it!

Goku realized his mistake immediately and began to panic, "Woopsies! You jumped the gun too quickly on that one, Goku!" He threw his hands up in defense and droplets of nervous sweat began to drip down his forehead, "Ha-ha-ha well- uh- Actually- I mean I- I just thought- thought I'd take a guess! Yea, that's it! I mean he kind of looks like Vegeta! Ha-ha-ha-ha"

This last part was of course true. Trunks did look like his father. Bulma was positive that no other baby could scowl like hers! "But you knew his name too!"

"Crap! I forgot how smart, Bulma is!" Goku berated himself, "Ha-ha-ha Wow! What are the chances of that! That's pretty amazing huh? May be I'm psychic!"

Piccolo, who was standing away from the main party, rolled his eyes at the Saiyan's feeble attempts to redeem himself. Luckily everyone else was so shocked that Vegeta was the father that they didn't notice Goku's miraculous fortune-telling abilities: "Outrageous! Who would have guessed? Bulma and Vegeta!"

Yamcha closed his eyes tighter in mortification. "This just gets better and better! Thanks-a-fucking-lot Krillin!"

Upon hearing that the baby-chatter was over, Piccolo returned to the crowd, "Well since we are on the subject, where is Vegeta?"

"I don't have a clue! I really haven't seen him around lately," Bulma lied. She thought Vegeta would probably appreciate her not telling them about their little rendezvous last night. "I know he was training to come here, but what with the baby and all… I must have lost track of him!"

"He'll show! He wouldn't miss a fight!" Goku exclaimed. He knew that a Saiyan's blood yearned for battle and there was no way Vegeta could deny himself of partaking in one as great as this. He wasn't sure how deeply his rival cared for Bulma and the baby but he was positive that he would at least come to have a good time.

Vegeta cackled inwardly at Kakkarot's comment, "You are right Kakkarot… I definitely would not miss a fight!" His blood began to boil and he could feel the adrenaline beginning to run through his body. He was in his true element. Finally the Prince of all Saiyans would return to battle!

Author's Note: Okay so just a few quick comments. This follows the android saga very carefully but I do add in a few things here for there. I would also like to state that this story is about BULMA and VEGETA! Therefore don't count on having scenes from the android saga in this story if those two characters are not present. Please let me know what you guys think! Thanks!
