If you have the time, please also read my partnered fic (partner is Kureeji) called Eyes in Dark Corners.

Last time on The Wish:


Voices erupted in their heads, but neither one cared. All they cared was that they were both there, together. They had defied distance and death and now, nothing could prevent them from being together.

The five warriors and Nail could do nothing more than stare at the sight in front of them. Prince Vegeta and Princess Bulma were wrapped in a soft yet passionate kiss, both lost in their own world. Guru simply smiled. He alone, understood everything.



*****

One year after Namek

Although he acted cold and cruel towards her, Bulma could sense that Vegeta did love her. She could feel it. If not, why had he come to Earth, why had he decided to stay with her, why had he married her? One day, she would get him to confess his true feelings out loud, but that day was not now.

Ever since they had returned from Namek, their visions had stopped. She didn't know why they were gone or, for that matter, why they had come in the first place. Still, she was grateful. It was because of those visions that she had met the love of her life, and she would never forget it.

She had begun to realize just how strongly she felt towards the arrogant Prince when she kissed him on Planet Namek. His entire past, his life, his emotions, she had seen everything during that kiss. She sighed, wondering how she had seen all that.

Her thoughts were distracted by the shrill cry of a baby. She looked out from her bedroom window and saw Kakkarot and Chi Chi, desperately trying to get their two month old son, Gohan, to stop crying. Yes, Kakkarot and Chi Chi had had a son a few months ago to the delight of the entire palace. Bulma smiled. She wanted a child too, one that she could hold in her arms and call her own.

Vegeta watched his mate from the door, smirking as he felt her happiness inside him. He didn't know how, but when they had kissed on Namek, somehow, their souls had bonded. They could feel each others emotions. It was just that he could block his emotions better than her. Good thing he could, or else she would know just how much he cared about her. That was why he had come to Earth, that was why he had 'married' her. He loved her too much not to come. He didn't know when he had fallen in love, but he had. He had fallen hard. 'Marriage' was a strange custom and he had called it stupid. He had ranted and raved for days and days about how he was only marrying her because he had nothing else to do and nowhere else to go. However, he knew that she and Kakkarot could see through him.

Yes, Kakkarot was one of the few people who understood him, even though they hated each other. Even Bardock couldn't understand the Prince. It was thanks to Bardock that the Saiyan Prince had come to learn so much about his home planet. Of course, he would never come out and tell anyone he was thankful. That just wasn't him.

He heard his mate giggle a bit and walked up behind her, wrapping his arms around her waist.

She leaned back on him, knowing immediately who it was. If only he could be this affectionate in public. Still, she didn't mind. Having him affectionate in private was better than no affection at all.

He leaned over, trying to see what she found so amusing. His smirked returned. It was that baka Kakkarot and his mate with their child again. The child, that's what it was. Bulma wanted a child. He chuckled to himself. She didn't know it now, but she was smart, she would figure it out. Soon enough, they would have their own child. A heir to the Saiyan Empire.

The Saiyan Empire. Vegeta thought about it. Some day, he might wish the lives of his people back. But not now. They were too violent, too aggressive, from what Bardock had told him. He would have to learn how to be a true Prince and how to contain them before he could wish his people back. For now though, he was content with learning how to be a good 'husband' and father while maintaining his cold exterior. He tightened his hold on the woman, letting his feelings of love pour through in the brief moment.

It was ironic. His entire life he had strived to become the strongest warrior in the universe. That way no one could hurt him or tell him what to do. Finally, after all those years, he had achieved that goal, yet he was still being controlled and didn't really mind. He smiled to himself. Yes, a weak, little, human female had more control over the Saiyan Prince than anyone else ever had. A weak, little, human female had conquered the beast inside him and defeated his heart.

*****

A small stone stood unnoticed by many passing by for centuries upon centuries. It had only been noticied by a few creatures since the beginning of time, Vegeta being one of them. Still, it shone brightly in its own little corner of the universe with its message clear for anyone who cared to read it. It read:

A constant struggle of good versus evil shall come down to one fight
The Prince of Darkness versus the Princess of Light
The Prince, cold and uncaring, with a heart as dark as coal
The Princess, kind and compassionate, touching everyone's soul
Their destinies will collide and the struggle will reach it's highest point ever
Who will prevail, who will survive, to have their side live on forever...

Usually, that was where it ended, but now, it continued.

With one touch of her hand, the Prince will see light
She will capture his heart, like a theif on a dark night
His pride will get in the way and he will not allow himself to see
How important the blue haired woman will be
An evil monster will break them apart
Testing their love, the strength of their hearts
But in the end, love will prevail above it all
Using their love as an example, all evil shall fall...



SPECIAL NOTE: Corney poem? Oh well, I wrote it on a spur of the moment thing. Odd eh, how an entire 24 chapter fic could be written off of one spur of the moment poem. Okie, so the fic is done (finally you say??). I know B/V fans are going to go nuts on me because there weren't many B/V moments. I'm sorry, but if you want B/V moments, Power of Love is developing into quite the B/V story (chapter 8 especially). But I had to use B/V for this fic because there is no better person to be the Prince of Darkness than Vegeta (am I not right??) and there was no way I could have Vegeta in a fic without Bulma. Anyway, I'd like to thank everyone who has read my fic (I know, it was farely long) and a special thanx goes out to the people who actually took the time to review it. You guys are the best. Keep reading and reviewing, it really does mean a lot to authors. I hope you all enjoyed reading this fic as much as I enjoyed writing it. Once again, thank you so much. *hugs all the reviewers...even flamer 'you don't want to know'* Till next time... ^_^

Alomst forgot, what did you guys think of my first ever fic? Please let me know. Thank you.
