It had been two days since Vegeta left and Buruma was in frenzy. She didn't know what he was doing because none of her friends would tell her. They only told her that he was going on a trip. She kept badgering them, but they would not explain any further.
Buruma was laying on her bed listening to music, she was thinking about graduation and the prom. Would Vegeta be back in time? She rolled over on to her back and closed her eyes.
*Flash*
The land was barren and a breeze blew by. The King Saiyajin was standing there smirking. Wait, how do I know he's the king? Where am I? Why am I feeling so angry?
Buruma was very freaked out, she couldn't really see who she was looking at but some how knew who he was. Then it hit her she was looking through some else's eyes! But how?
"So how's it going to be? Father? There really isn't a choice here so you had better hope to pick the best answer." Whoa! She could hear too. She now knew it was Vegeta's eyes she was looking through because of his voice. The next few things went by in a blur. Whenever Vegeta was kicked or punched, Buruma felt it, not as strong as actually being there, but strong enough. She was there for the whole fight, she was there when he declared his love for her, she was there when he became a Super Saiyajin, she was there for everything.
*Flash*
Buruma sat straight up on her bed Whoa that was weird, the music in her earphones had ended, and it was dark.
Was I really out for that long? She mused, Sheesh it seemed so realwas it? She checked the clock it was 10 pm. Awww man, I missed dinner. She got up and headed down stairs it was pure black. She went over to the fridge and opened it. A small yellow light filtered through the kitchen, she took out leftovers, went to the microwave and heated it up. She was sitting on the counter waiting for the food to be done when the telephone rang. Who could that be? She thought. When she picked up the phone Videl's scream emitted from the speaker.
"Buruma! Guess what! They're coming back!" A smile crept across her face.
"Really!? Yea! How did you find out?"
"Kuririn called he said he got a radio from Gohan that said they were coming back!"
"Cool, did he mention when they'd be back?"
"Yeah, sometime after sunrise. At Kuririn's house."
"Well then I'll see you there!"
"Yep, I'll be there at 6:00. See ya!"
Buruma said bye and hung up. She ate her dinner and went up stairs. She was so happy that Vegeta was coming back that she didn't fall asleep until midnight.
The next morning came and Buruma was very groggy, she took a cold shower to wake up, and then remembered, Vegeta! She raced around and was ready in a matter of minutes. She looked at the clock, 15 minutes until 6. I guess I'll be skipping breakfast. She ran out the door and drove madly to Kuririn's house. When she got there Videl was already in the backyard watching the sky. Buruma said hello to Kuririn and went out to the back to join Videl. Kuririn a bit later brought them coffee and toast. Juuhachi was with him, she had gotten a call from Videl the night before and decided to join them. She sat down next to Videl and looked up at the sky as everyone else was.
"Umm, nope don't see anything." Juuhachi said. She glanced around at her friends. "Hey relax, they'll get here just give them time." Buruma sighed.
"You're right, so Juuhachi you awake?"
"Yeah barely, but I came because I thought Kuririn might need me when your lover boys return." Videl punched her lightly on the arm. They giggled.
"So Juuhachi are you going to the prom?" Asked Videl.
"Yerp, you?"
"Yeah, Gohan wants to go. Weird, huh?"
"Yep, how 'bout you Buruma?" asked Juuhachi.
"Yeah, but it's going to be hard to get Vegeta to wear a tux." Buruma giggled.
"I'm sure. Hey Juuhachi when is it going to be?" Asked Videl.
"I think in a few weeks, and I haven't even bought my dress yet!" Videl and Juuhachi engaged in a conversation about what kind of dress they were going to get and Buruma rested her chin on her hands. Gazing at the sky here and there, she finally was about to drift off to sleep when Videl excitedly screamed.
"Look! It's the ship! They're back!" Buruma woke up fast, jumped up and joined her friends. It took a total of 10 minutes for the ship to reach Kuririn's house. It gracefully landed and the door opened. The first one out was Gohan; Videl ran over to him and hugged him.
"I'm so glad you're back! I know it's only been two days, but I couldn't wait to see your face again." Videl said, they embraced and kissed. Buruma watched in the background and waited for Vegeta to come out. But he never did, Buruma looked around wildly. Where was he? When Videl and Gohan finished with their hellos Gohan, tried to avoid Buruma but she demanded to be noticed.
"Gohan, where is Vegeta?" Gohan looked to the side.
"I'm sorry Buruma but he's" She didn't let him finish the sentence.
"Dead!? What? He can't be, he promised he'd come back!" Buruma was in hysterics.
"Wait, wait, you didn't let me finish." Gohan said. Buruma stopped and looked at Gohan.
"So he's not dead?"
"No he's not. He just had to stay behind for some important things." Gohan said rather annoyed for having been interrupted before.
"What kind of important things?" Asked Buruma.
"Well the burial ceremony for his father, and to be crowned." Gohan said nonchalantly.
"Crowned!? Whoa what happened while you were there?" Asked Videl.
"Do you really want to know?" Everyone nodded. Gohan headed inside and the others followed, they congregated around the table. Kuririn passed out cups of coffee and sat down next to Juuhachi to hear the story.
"Well we had arrived at King Vegeta's ship, Vegeta and King Vegeta got in an argument about earth, when it looked like they were going to fight I transported them to a barren land. I came with them but stood back and watched. They were beating each other up pretty bad, and Vegeta seemed to falter in the latter part of the fight"
"But he was deceiving King Vegeta," Buruma jumped in, remembering that in her 'dream'. "And he wentwhat was it? Super Saiyajin?"
"Yeah, how did you know that?" asked Gohan.
"Well yesterday I kind of had an out of body experience. I think I was looking through Vegeta's eyes."
"Whoa, really? Wow you guys already formed a mental bond?" Said Gohan, "Videl and I don't even have a strong bond like that yet."
"What's a bond?" Asked Videl, "and why don't we have one?"
"Well when a Saiyajin loves a girl very much they form a bond between them, so whatever the guy feels the girl feels, and in some cases the girl actually sees what the guy sees. But it's not very often, or vise versa that the guy would see through the girls eyes."
"Oh." Said Buruma.
"Wait, you don't love me?" Asked Videl, turning toward Gohan.
"I love you."
"Then why don't we have a bond?"
"We do, I just haven't been in any real emotional states for you to feel them."
"Oh, sorry." Videl said taking Gohan's hand and squeezing it.
"So when is Vegeta going to come back?" Asked Buruma.
"I'm sorry Buruma, but I really have no idea." Buruma looked saddened but held it in; she excused her self and went to school, even though it was a Saturday. She went to the top of the tallest building and sat there thinking.
Oh Vegeta I miss you. Come back soon. Buruma started to cry.
Vegeta was looking over some documents, on his father's burial, when he was suddenly over come with sadness. He felt that something was missing; he stood there for quite a while wondering what he should do. Then an elite officer came up behind him and actually scared the prince.
"What the hell?!" Vegeta whipped around and punched the elite. He went back some ways and stopped.
"Sorry Prince it won't happen again." The elite winced and sucked in a breath.
"What is it? Why have you disturbed me?" Vegeta demanded.
"Well you looked sort of troubled we, meaning me and the others," he pointed over to the control console, "wanted to know if you needed anything." Vegeta looked at the officer with a 'what?' expression, then his confusing frown went to a smirk.
"I know what you can do for me. Get a pod ready I'm going to earth." The officer scuttled away holding his stomach. Within the next few minutes a pod was ready and the prince was neatly tucked away inside. He blasted off and reached the atmosphere in minutes. He started down and tried to locate Buruma's town, he found the town with little trouble and descended down to Kuririn's backyard. When he landed Gohan, Kuririn, Juuhachi and Videl were there to meet him, but not Buruma. He looked wildly around for her.
"Sorry Vegeta but she left about a couple of hours ago." Said Videl, catching a glimpse of his unhappiness.
"Do you know where she went?" asked Vegeta. Videl pointed in the direction of their school and Vegeta flew off.
When he got there Buruma was just getting up to go home. He flew to the top of the building and watched her gather her things.
"Where do you think you're going?" Buruma looked up with surprise.
"Vegeta?" She turned around and smiled at him up on the roof. He smirked back and flew down to greet her. He put his face next to hers.
"I missed you, woman." He growled playfully in her ear and she giggled.
"I missed you too." She wrapped her arms around him and they fell into a lingering kiss. They kissed for a long time before Vegeta picked Buruma up and flew her to the top of the building. He set her down and sat on the edge of the roof. She sat down next to him and leaned on him.
"So what have you been up to?" Buruma asked not really expecting an answer.
"Nothing." He replied.
"Figures, but you know what? I saw the whole thing with you and your dad." Vegeta's eyebrows shot up in surprise.
"What? You saw it?"
"Yep, Gohan said it was because of a mental bond. Can you believe I actually saw through your eyes?" Buruma said with a tint of excitement.
"That's rare. What did you see?"
"Well I was there for practically everything, I saw when you killed your dad and turned into that yellow super thing."
"Yellow super thing?" he chuckled and stood up. Buruma turned watched him walk to the middle of the roof.
"What are you doing?"
"Let me show you how powerful a yellow super thing is." He balled his hands into fists and sparks flew out from his body. Buruma watched with an expression of awe and yet she was also frightened. Her eyes bugged out when Vegeta emitted a scream of frustration and a bright yellow light burst out from his body, his hair turned bright sun yellow, and his eyes were a deep-sea turquoise. He finished and the yellow sparks were once again dancing around obeying his every whim. By this time Buruma had gotten up and stared in complete awe at Vegeta, suddenly feeling the power he now possessed.
"Wow, that is really cool" Buruma said with great admiration. Vegeta smirked and drew close to her.
"The yellow super thing is called a Super Saiyajin. I'm the first of my time." Vegeta was very proud of his accomplishment and couldn't help but gloat. When they were almost touching Buruma suddenly realized that the yellow light engulfed her and she was feeling quite comfortable and warm.
"Let's go for a fly." Vegeta suggested, Buruma nodded her head and was suddenly lifted from the roof. He cradled her close to his chest while they flew around. Buruma couldn't help but notice his tightly packed muscles and how comfortable she was being in his arms.
Videl and Juuhachi were talking at Kuririn's house in the back yard, while the guys went for some lunch.
"I'm hungry." Whined Videl.
"I know I am too, when are they going to come back?" Said Juuhachi, her stomach growled.
"I hope very soon."
"Yeah me too."
"Hey do you think Vegeta found Buruma?"
"Yeah, jeez you can tell that those two are so in love, but why they don't show it I guess we'll never know." Juuhachi observed.
"Weird. Well, what can you do? So are you going to Vegetsei with Kuririn?"
"No, we're going to stay here. I'd feel too alienated without some sort of connection like you guys have."
"Yeah, I guess. I can't help but worry, I hope I won't get killed or make a laughing stock out of Gohan."
"Yeah, I bet Buruma would have it easier."
"Oh of course its because she's in love with the Prince, no one disses the Prince." Videl said haughtily. They burst out laughing and couldn't stop for quite a while.
"So when are you guys leaving?" Juuhachi asked.
"I don't know, maybe sometime during the summer."
"You'll come and visit, right?" Asked Juuhachi.
"Of course! As long as you come and visit us." Videl said
"Hmm well I'm not sure. I know I would feel very out of place and so would Kuririn." Juuhachi explained.
"Well you won't be entirely alone you've got us." Videl pointed out.
"Yerp" Juuhachi sighed. Kuririn and Gohan came back with armloads of food and set it up outside. Kuririn went to get the soda from his garage. Juuhachi and Videl were beating Gohan off with a stick so that he didn't eat all the food before they had a chance to get some. When they were all settled eating and drinking, Vegeta and Buruma showed up. They sat on the blanket, that Kuririn had gotten, and they were served food.
"So Vegeta, what's going on up there?" Gohan asked as he pointed upward.
"Nothing probably, they wouldn't dare touch anything while I'm away." Vegeta smirked. Everyone gave a hesitant laugh and went back to eating.
"So are you guys going to the prom?" Asked Buruma.
"Yep." Said Videl and Juuhachi.
"Maybe we should go dress shopping together?" Said Buruma completely ignoring Vegeta's silent elbow prodding protests.
"Ok." Replied Juuhachi.
"Yeah sure that'll be fun." Said Videl. "Hey maybe the guys could go tux shopping together!" The girls giggled at the pictures in their heads of the guys being lost at a tux shop. The guys were at a loss so they very reluctantly agreed.
"When is this prom?" asked Vegeta.
"In a couple of weeks." Replied Juuhachi.
"Vegeta, you are going to come with me, right?" Said Buruma trying to make it seem like he had to go. Vegeta nodded and went back to his food paying a great deal of attention to it. Buruma smiled and hugged him.
"Thanks." She whispered in his ear. Everyone averted eyes but they all ended up looking at their significant other. When they were done the girls went to clean up and the guys were in the back talking.
"So Vegeta are you King now?" Asked Kuririn.
"No, not yet."
"I heard you turned into a Super Saiyajin. What is that?" Asked Kuririn. Vegeta smirked and went in to transformation state. The yellow sparks were once again around his body, his hair went bright yellow and his eyes became turquoise. Kuririn stared in amazement as he realized how much power Vegeta had. Gohan was in a similar state, he was a little envious but it didn't stop him from being proud to have Vegeta as a friend.
~Hoped you all like it. Will Vegeta actually wear a tux? Will Buruma leave with him to Vegetasei Tune in next time with Buruma!
