She had met them...originally it was fine as just them...but soon he wanted to be more than just them.
(Present)
Kagome wished with all that she was that things could just be easy. It was easy getting with Vegeta, things had just made sense in each other's arms. Did the move too fast? Hell yes...and she felt horrible for what she had put Bulma through...but at what point would she be done fighting to protect the ones she loved. At what point could she finally be happy with the life she wanted and was willing to go through hell for?
She had honestly though that Goku would agree to help Raditz, but he had refused. Saying that Earth was his planet to protect, and while Frieza may be a threat, he wasn't yet a threat to Earth.
"Goku, think about it, how many lives are being destroyed because of this monster. He could come to Earth, and we would be none the wiser until it was too late, by that time..."
"By that time, your son and mate would be dead, and there would be no one else to blame but yourself." Raditz finished. Mind you, Kagome hadn't intended on saying anything that harshly, but he was right.
Goku looked conflicted, but finally, he nodded, "I get it."
"If Goku is fighting, than so am I." Krillin struggled, now leaning against Bulma who helped him by letting him lean on her shoulder, she was thankfully on her knees, still fearfully unsure of Raditz.
"You must be joking. If you cannot defeat me, what hope could you possibly have to defeat Frieza?!"
"We will train!" Krillin yelled, trying his best to get his point across.
Goku nodded, "I want my friends to fight alongside us as well. It's not just my planet, it's theirs too, and they deserve the chance to defend their home as well."
"Tch!" Raditz sneered, "It's their funeral! Not that it matters whether or not they want to come, if they have no ship, they can't come with us, I only assume you have your space pod still."
Kagome laughed, "funny you should mention that, Goku doesn't still have his ship, and funnier yet...we actually have a ship being made right now by Earths finest mind."
"You are joking!" Raditz growled, "WE DON'T HAVE TIME TO WAIT AROUND FOR SOME MINDLESS EARTHLING TO BUILD SOME SLOW ASS SHIP!"
"...Well, that's just too bad!"
Everyone looked back in shock. For the first time, Bulma was standing tall and speaking firmly, glaring at the man who was insulting her and her ship. "It just so happens, Mr. I-Need-A-Fucking-Haircut, that I'm the mindless earthling building this Ship, and I can guarantee, you won't find a ship that moves faster!" She moved her way between Goku and Kagome, the latter of which was staring in stunned silence at the woman.
It suddenly made sense how she and Vegeta had ended up together. The woman was brave, possibly suicidal, but brave! Yes, it made more sense now, but this wasn't Vegeta, and where Vegeta may have risen to the verbal challenge, this man might just kill her due to annoyance.
Bulma stood less than a foot before Raditz, her eyes trimmed in anger, "It just so happens that I am the world's most attractive genius! So...until you see it, keep your mouth shut!"
"Highly doubtful woman, perhaps if you were to claim yourself the loudest among your race, I wouldn't find it nearly so hard to believe."
Kagome could see the woman seething in her rage, and walking forward, she brought her hand down and carefully took Bulma's hand in hers, bringing her back down to Earth and pulling her a few paces away from Raditz. "How quickly can we get the Ship finished?"
"She should be finished within the next month or two...if I really pushed it, I could have her finished in exactly one month."
"..." Kagome looked at Raditz, her eyes asking the question she wanted to voice, but didn't want to argue over.
"...One month, no more, no less...I refuse to wait any longer on this mud ball of a planet."
"Alright!" Krillin took to the air after having regained his spark lost earlier from being swatted into Kame House. "I'm going to go and let the others know!"
Goku nodded, "Piccolo isn't too far from us, maybe you could tell him first."
Krillin shivered, "I don't know about that..."
"You mean the green man?" Raditz was scanning the area to see whom it was that his brother was saying was near them, and only the Namekian was nearby, but not so close that he could see the green Alien.
"Yeah, that's Piccolo, you know him?"
"I ran into him already, the weakling was about to indulge me in a warmup, when I found you ki."
"I see..." Goku still held onto his frown, he was none too trusting of Raditz, despite him being his brother, he knew little to nothing about him, or any of the other Saiyans. What he did know, was that Kagome trusted their Prince, and Raditz was his only family by blood...he was feeling more obligated by the second. And the more he thought about the situation, the more reasons he found to leave Earth and fight an intergalactic bad guy. His wife, his son, his friends, his home, and now...he has started to find reason to fight for Kagome's love and trust in Vegeta, and his brother he's never known of or met before that day. Turning his attention to a still nervous Krillin, he smiled in kind to his lifelong friend, "I'll go tell Piccolo...you can find Yamcha, Chiaotzu and Tien, right?"
"Yeah, I can find them, no sweat!"
"How can you find them without a scouter?!" Raditz was quickly growing irritated with his baby brother.
"...what do you mean? We sense out their ki signatures. Since everyone's is different, it's easy to find them, once you learn how, that is."
Nodding, a determined look was on his face now, "teach me!"
Kagome watched Goku's eyes go wide in surprise and couldn't stop her laughter from stretching across the island. Gohan, who was still in her arms, stared at her curiously before looking between his dad and uncle. "Goku, this would be good for you both. Since Saiyans get stronger after every battle they survive, you can all train together, and this gives you time to learn some techniques, maybe even learn more about your race."
Goku pouted, "yeah, I guess you're right." He sighed, "I don't really want to introduce him to Chichi though, I should avoid that for as long as possible. Kagome,"
"Hmn?"
"Watch over Gohan for me until I come get him, I'm assuming by the look in Bulma's eyes that the two of you are returning to Capsule Corp, right?" His eyes looked to Bulma as she waited for the group to finish talking, leaning against her cruiser as she nodded her head to Goku.
Kagome snuggled Gohan close to her and laughed when he tucked his head cutely under her chin, "no problem, I'll keep an eye on him while you are gone. Will big brother be going with you? Or maybe with Krillin," she laughed as Krillin went sheet white.
"Uh...haha, I think he should go with Goku! You know, great brother bonding...and all..." Krillin blanched as he listened to himself talk.
"Haha, no...don't worry Krillin, he'll come with me. Besides, I wanted to have a little one on one with him anyways..." Goku looked at Raditz and watched his brother smirk, crossing his arms as his tail tightened around his waist. He was excited to see what his brother could do, and that he might get stronger in the long run, if his brother was stronger than him...that is. "Maybe I can talk Piccolo into training with us as well."
Kagome nodded, "take your time, just don't kill yourselves in the process. I can heal anyone who is injured, but I can't bring back the dead."
Krillin stammered at that, "...can...heal? You can heal!?" He looked at his beaten and bruised body and frowned, "I know I'm flying around like everything's alright, but make no mistake, just because I'm not crying out in agony, doesn't mean it feels good."
She laughed and held a hand out, "then come down here, my services are only free for the first healing, after which, I start charging." She joked, placing her hand on his chest as he came close enough to her that she could reach out to him. Her energy flowed to the tips of her fingers, and for the first time since she woke in the dimension, she used her healing abilities. She was shocked as her energy fanned out over the span of Krillin's body and in moments, he was just like new, his clothes were still torn, but she wasn't a miracle worker. "...Hmn, it's stronger..."
Kagome watched as everyone bade their farewells, with plans to regroup at Capsule Corp. Gohan tugged at her shirt and she looked down at the small boy in her arms, noticing how his tail was wrapped cutely and carefully around her wrist. "Miss. Kagome?" Gohan said in a calm and curious voice as the threat was no longer around him, noting that he had her attention, he continued, "what is stronger?"
Kagome smiled, "...I'll explain in the cruiser, Bulma looks like she might snap if we don't go...and between you and me, I'm more afraid of Bulma then I am of your Uncle. Does that sound acceptable to you, Gohan?"
Gohan looked at Bulma from Kagome's arms and shivered at the kill-kill-kill aura she was giving off. "Yes ma'am,"
"Good," Kagome grinned, passing Bulma as she hopped into the back of the cruiser, Bulma slammed her own door shut from the driver's seat and once Gohan was settled into the seat beside Kagome, she sped off. Leaving a still silent Master Roshi and Turtle, to watch them leave.
'There is something about that girl...' Master Roshi stared after the cruiser. 'She's hiding something...' The female with raven hair and blue eyes still fresh in his mind, his frown deepened as he continued to watch until the cruiser was completely out of sight. 'She's hiding...a...a size C-cup! That dirty girl, with her long legs, big blue eyes, and deliciously curvy body. I'd like to-'
"..." Turtle watched his master laugh creepily, blood dripping from one nostril. "Master Roshi, this is exactly why you can't fly the Nimbus yourself."
"SHUT UP YOU DAMN TURTLE! I WAS THINKING OF THE WEATHER!"
