The next morning around, say about nine, Bulma, Vegeta, Panchy and Trunks were in the kitchen talking while making breakfast while Dr. Briefs and Bulla were watching something on TV and Tights was just getting out of the shower and getting dressed.

"Wahhh!"

Bulma dropped a glass bowl of scrambled eggs when Lily's shrill scream was heard throughout the house.

"Lily?!" Trunks yelled running to her room.

"Stay here!" Vegeta warned Bulma and her parents strictly as he followed Trunks to Lily's room.

When they got there, they stood there in shock. Lily's room was a complete disaster; it looked like a tornado ripped through it…there were toys, books, puzzles and everything else everywhere, her bed and dresser were flipped over. The only thing that was still intact was the shelf that the fish were on. And in the middle of it all was Lily, standing there; it looked as if she was completely unscathed.

"What's going on?!" Bulma called from the hallway.

"You can come back if you want; it's safe…there's nobody here!" Vegeta called back in shock.

"Lily, what happened; are you ok?" Trunks asked concerned as he made his way over to his daughter, stepping over things as best as he could.

"What on earth happened in here?" Bulma asked as she, Bulla and her parents made their way to Lily's room.

"What's going on?" Tights asked walking over in nothing but a towel and a hair curler in hand.

"Gahh…put some damn clothes on!" Vegeta yelled pissed off.

"God, fine; I just came to see what the fuss was about. Who or what came and did all this?" Tights asked placing her free hand on her hip.

"Don't know…" Vegeta sighed as Trunks finally made it to Lily and picked her up…well tried to pick her up; Lily struggled against him.

"Maybe she did this…I mean she did break a chair. And yes, while that may have been an accident; this sure as hell wasn't. And who knows…maybe the chair wasn't an accident." Tights said heading back to the bathroom.

"Ok…that's enough now; come on." Trunks said as he managed to get a hold of Lily and carried her out of the room, shutting the door behind him.

"Nooo!" Lily screamed, trying to get back to her room.

"What is going on?" Trunks asked seriously, setting Lily down before setting down in front of her.

"I'm going to let the dog out." Dr. Briefs said when they heard the dog scratching frantically at the back door.

"Ok. Thanks dad." Bulma said sighing.

"Is gone!" Lily cried turning red in the face.

"What's gone?" Trunks, Vegeta and Bulma asked Lily while Panchy and Bulla went to the kitchen to clean up the mess and remake the scrambled eggs.

"Izzy! Izzy's gone!" Lily screamed, crying out.

"Who's Izzy?" Vegeta asked confused.

"Izzy!" Lily continued to scream.

"Oh…" Trunks said in realization.

"That teddy bear she always carries…" Bulma sighed looking at Vegeta.

"Why are you looking at me?" Vegeta asked defensively.

"I'm not…well I am; but it's only because I'm explaining it to you. I know you didn't care for that thing; but you would never just take it from her without her knowledge." Bulma sighed as Lily stood there crying.

"Lily, it's ok; we'll find Izzy…" Trunks said trying and failing to calm Lily down.

"No we won't!" Lily screamed and then started crying again.

Just then Pachi came running through the house, Dr. Briefs waddling after him.

"Come on dog…drop that thing…" Dr. Briefs said out of breath.

"Dad, what's going on? Sit down." Bulma asked and then demanded her father sit down.

"I let the dog back in; he got something from the garbage and won't drop it." Dr. Briefs breathed out.

"Ok; just sit here. Pachi, come here! Good boy. Now, drop it!" Bulma exclaimed sternly, looking directly at Pachi.

Pachi dropped whatever it is that he found in the trash right away.

"Aww man… Trunks; can you please come here?!" Bulma called right away once she seen what Pachi had dropped; Vegeta was left in charge of Lily.

"What is it; what's wrong?" Trunks asked once he got to his mother.

"This…" Bulma said holding up the thing that Pachi had with a few paper towels.

"That's Lily's teddy bear…where did you find it? And why does it look and smell like that?" Trunks asked looking at the teddy bear in question.

"Pachi found it outside…in the trash; he brought it back in. Now, he's a dog…so I think it's safe to say he didn't take it out there…" Bulma started.

"So the question remains: who threw it out?" Trunks asked looking at the teddy bear.

"I'm not sure; but we can't give it to her like this…it needs to be cleaned first." Bulma said seriously.

"Will that thing survive the wash?" Tights asked walking out in a short red dress and red high heels.

"It'll be fine…so long as I put it on low. Trust me; I know what I'm doing. Is that my dress? When the hell did you go through my closet?" Bulma explained and then asked pissed off when she noticed what Tights was wearing.

"It is and this morning while you were in the shower. And hey, it looks better on me anyways. Why don't you just get rid of that thing anyways? You can get her better things; mom and dad brought her a nice brand new teddy bear in better condition. And you all bought her really nice stuffed animals; she doesn't need that thing." Tight said simply, getting a cup of coffee.

"I do believe it was from her other grandfather…" Trunks started, only to be interrupted by Tights.

"Even more reason to get rid of it. I mean if you want her to forget about that life…" Tights started.

"I don't want her to forget who she is…sure her mother maybe… But like it or not, she does have other family; and we, both sides of her family, need to acknowledge that. That's why, I've decided, whether anyone here likes it or not, I'm taking her to see her other grandfather. Then after that, she can decide if she wants to see him again. And so everyone is aware, I will be there with them the entire time. Now, to whoever threw out Izzy; please come clean and say something so that this can go faster." Trunks said seriously.

"That thing has a name? Oh my god…why is that thing so important? Fine, I threw the damn thing out! She should appreciate the things we give her over something she got from someone she doesn't even know!" Tights yelled pissed off.

"She came with it; it gives her comfort! And what's this I hear about you talking to someone who isn't family about how you think Lily is a mistake and that Trunks should've never taken her in? Or that she has the ugliest ears you've ever seen? Oh yeah, I talked to your friend…at quarter past two in the morning because she called! What were you thinking? And were you thinking to check to see if Lily was around to hear your conversation?! No, of course not; you were only thinking of yourself!" Bulma yelled pissed off.

"Oh, you think I'm only thinking of myself? Ha! I'm thinking about this entire family and its reputation! With the exception of Bulla, who is still in high school; we all have degrees! This child, who you barely know will never have that! She will never have any type of degree because of her illness!" Tights yelled, pissing off Vegeta, who had just gotten Lily to calm down.

"Do you mean her autism?" Trunks asked annoyed, folding his arms across his chest.

"Yes, exactly." Tights breathed exasperated.

"So what's the problem?" Trunks asked just standing there.

"She's never going to amount to anything and will always be stupid as fuck!" Tights exclaimed trying to get Trunks to understand.

"Awww…ok; I get it. I get exactly how you feel. Well, actually I don't. I love Lily just the way she is…genius IQ or not. She is my daughter and nothing is going to change that. Nor will it change the fact that I love her no matter what. If you or anyone has a problem with that, you don't have to be part of her life…or mine." Trunks said seriously walking away and over to his dad and Lily.

"And by the way…I don't plan to go to college after high school; I don't want a fancy degree. And if I do go to college later on, it's going to be for fashion." Bulla said simply before going to her room.

"Lily, we found Izzy; but she needs…" Trunks started.

"He…" Lily said softly.

"Hmm?" Trunks asked confused.

"Izzy is a boy…" Lily said softly.

"Well ok then. He needs a special bath. Once that happens, you can have him back. Ok?" Trunks asked looking at Lily.

"K…" Lily said a little hoarsely.

"Now…what are we going to do about your room?" Trunks asked, placing Lily on his hip.

"I sowee…" Lily said looking down.

"It's ok… But, we're never going to do that again, are we?" Trunks asked sternly.

"No…" Lily said defeated.

"You also realize that because you did destroy your room, you have to go on timeout?" Trunks asked seriously.

"Dats fair…" Lily sighed as Trunks around.

"Oh no…I'm not putting her in the kitchen with you. I know you…you'd have too much fun…" Trunks sighed looking at his mother who wanted to put Lily in the corner of the kitchen while she cooked.

"I'll take her; she can watch me train until breakfast is done." Vegeta said seriously.

"Trunks…" Bulma said seriously.

"It'll be fine; I have to put her room back together anyways." Trunks said handing Lily to his father.

"And as for you; you can stay for breakfast…but after that I want you out of my house. Lily is very important to us…" Bulma started.

"But she'll never amount to anything!" Tights complained.

"She's smarter than you're giving her credit for…and I think she amounts to many things." A voice said from the backyard…
