The Strongest of Them All Part III: Strength of the Soul

Daughter of a scientific genius and a mechanical genius herself, it was she who started the craziness-combining enemy with enemy, forging friendships that otherwise would have never existed.

She was the type of person to fall in love with the "bad guy" and see the heart in him others neglected, or refused, to see. Hot tempered and more than a little stubborn, she was, by no means, a saint..far from it. Yet she refused to believe that anyone was purely evil, despite their pasts.

It was this quirk alone that prompted her to ask the one man who had killed her friends, as well as hundreds of civilizations-to live with her and her family.

Over time she formed a connection with the dark Prince-a 'bond' if you will- connecting her soul to his.

She dealt with the hurt that he would never tell her of his love, though she knew he returned it whole-heartedly. Yet she loved this dark man with all of her heart, only to have him ripped away from her by a cruel act of vengeance from a foe once thought long forgotten.

Her hope to change the past thrived along with her newly born son. She slaved away working on a machine that would surpass all laws of physics and travel back in time, a machine that would change their lives.

Once finished, her now grown son traveled to the past-intent on changing the history that so desperately needed to be altered.

Her struggle in the new time-line, though relieved by the knowledge of the future, did not lessen. She was 'reminded' again of her love's 'heartlessness' when she nearly died in a plane crash, as he remained stoic and watched her demise. She was saved by her Mirai son instead of her mate.

Yet, her love for the arrogant man did not falter, nor did her loyalty waiver. Her dedication was steadfast but so was the pain in her heart. But once again the foe was overcome and life with her prince continued on.

Until HE came, one of the most powerful adversaries they would ever encounter.

Afraid of the feelings within him, her prince allowed him to be returned to the way he was.

Cold.

Ruthless.

A murderer.

Yet, he sacrificed himself for her-and his son.

She knew his death in her heart-but she FELT his death in her soul. But she survived-determined to revive those who were murdered. Her hope and her son were the only things keeping her going. As well as her steadfast belief that everything would be all right.

So this is for you.

For all that you have endured-

And for all that you will endure in the Future.

You are truly the strongest of them all-

BULMA BRIEFS- Queen of the Saiyans- Mate, Mother, and Friend
