Personal Note: Hey, again, sorry for the cliffhanger in chapter 5! But in this chapter, there are going to happen some really important things, you know?

Decisions and Dangers - 6

Vegeta was totally concentrating. He even slowed down the flying to scan for Bulma. 'Her Ki is so damn difficult to locate!' he thought 'If she wouldn't be such a weakling, I would've already found her! Damn!' He eyed the trees under him. Nothing special, actually, a normal forrest. There were trees and a river and trees, and trees, and a house and... 'Wait a minute, a house?!' He flew down and landed in front of the house. He didn't bother with sensing and just broke the door and went in. If it was the wrong house, he would just ask the people in which direction Adrian's was.

He didn't turn the lights on, his saiyan eyes were good enough to see even in this semi-darkness. There were lots of expensive carpets and one really amazing and big antique table made of dark wood. (déjà vù?) Suddenly he heard somebody whimper. Could it be....'Bulma?'

***

Adrian heard the loud crack of the breaking door. 'Damn!!!' He looked at the shivering Bulma beneath him. "I guess we will have to continue this another time." he whispered. He quickly stood up and disappeared in one dark corner. There must be some secret escape thing, Bulma thought. Tears were running down her face and she sobbed slightly.

***

Lucy was running through the forrest, panting and sweating. 'I must be very close to his house' she thought. But then she heard somebody running in her direction. 'Who's that? Maybe it's Vegeta and he got lost. Yeah, it must be Vegeta' The man was still running but it was to dark to see his face. So she just waved her hands (how useful) and called out "Hey Vegeta! You're running in the wrong direction! Adrian's house is behind you!" As he got closer he still didn't say anything. 'Maybe he can't see me either' "Vegeta, it's me, Lucy!"

He got closer and closer. As he stood before her he grabbed her by her wrist. Lucy looked up at him, suddenly realizing that this was definitely not Vegeta. She glared at him with a horrified gaze.

"Hello Lucy! Long time no see."

She screamed.

***

Vegeta stormed down the stairs to what seemed to be the cellar. There was another door but he blasted it out of the way. He flew down the last meters into the room and stopped. What he saw was breaking his heart. "Woman..."

There laid Bulma, completely nude with strangulation marks on her throat and a very obvious bruise on her cheek. She was shivering and crying, but when she saw him she couldn't help but look down with embarrassment, as if it would be her fault. After a few seconds he recovered from the shock of her sight and put the blanket that layed beside the bed above her. He broke the chains easily and helped her up. "Are you okay? I mean, uhm, did he..." He couldn't say it.

"I'm okay. He didn't rape me." She paused. "Because of you." She looked at him with tears still running down her face "Thank you"

Now that he was sure that she was okay, he could finally ask her. "Where is that son of a bitch?"

Suddenly they heard a scream.

***

Lucy struggled against Adrians grip. "Let go!"

He chuckled. "Don't worry, I don't want anything from you. I didn't plan that. But the fact that you are here is just perfect. Your scream was my diversionary tactic. Bye" With that he ran back into the darkness.

'A diversionary tactic? Huh? For whom?' But then she realized what his plan must be and her eyes widened. "Shit..."

***

Vegeta wanted to fly towards the scream. That was probably where that son of a bitch was. But as he started to fly he felt Bulma grip his wrist. He looked at her questioning and she looked back, her eyes pleading and full of fear. "Woman, let go!" He wanted to say it more demanding but it sounded softer.

"Please don't leave me alone in here, Vegeta! What if he comes back?"

"That's why I'm going after him" He stated simply.

She let go of his wrist and nodded.

***

Vegeta flew in the direction where he heard the scream a minute ago. He scanned the area and then saw a woman. She was waving her hands so he landed. She was constantly babbling so quickly that he couldn't understand a word. "Woman! Slow down! What's going on? Why are you not at Capsule Corp. like I told you?"

Lucy took a deep breath and then told him about Adrian's tactic.

***

Bulma sat down on the bed she was chained at only a few minutes ago. She wrapped the blanket tight around herself. She was still sobbing and she found that she couldn't stop. 'Must be the shock' she thought. She closed her eyes and tried to calm down. Vegeta was here now and theredore she was safe. He was probably kicking this bastard's ass right now. That thought made her grin. "He'll pay"

"Don't be so sure about that, honey"
