Bulma's P.O.V.

I watched as my daddy typed in something on the console at the front of the ship. Then I heard a noise behind me and I turned around. I jumped back in surprise when I saw four long pod-like things come out of the wall.

"Don't worry Bulma. Those things aren't going to hurt you. They're just going to make you go to sleep for a very long time," daddy said to me.

"Like in that fairy tale mommy told us about Sleeping Beauty?" ChiChi asked.

"Yes ChiChi. Like in the fairy tale," daddy told ChiChi. "But, before we can take our little nap we need to get into these special suits." So saying, he typed something else into the console and the walls "opened up." Out came four aquamarine suits. "These suits will expand to any size," daddy was telling us. I already knew what they were. I had watched daddy work on them, that's how I knew.

"Could an elephant fit in one of those daddy?" ChiChi asked our father.

"Yes, I think so. It's never been tested on an elephant before but I'm pretty sure they could."

"So why do we have to wear these?" ChiChi asked.

"Because we're going to be asleep for a very long time and our bodies are going to change as we grow older. For one, you two are going to become _mcuh_ bigger. That's why they need to be able to expand," daddy explained to ChiChi.

"But Sleeping Beauty didn't wear a suit like this," ChiChi told him, even as she was getting into her own suit.

"That's because she had already grown up and she didn't need one," daddy answered her.

"Oh." They got into their suits without any more talking.

"Alright, everyone, get into bed," daddy said. I got into one of the pods and so did mommy, but apparently ChiChi didn't know which one was hers.

"ChiChi. Over here. Your bed is here next to mine," I said to my little sister. Actually, she was my adopted sister. Her parents died in a plane crash when she was only two and since we were real close to them we adopted her. ChiChi knows she was adopted but she doesn't mind it. She walked over to me and got into her "bed."

"Good night ~Bulma-chan~," ChiChi said to me as the glass tops came down.

"Good night ~ChiChi-chan~," I answered, right before the glass tops closed down and we were cut off from communicating with each other. I watched as my daddy typed in a few more things on the console then he got into his own.

All of a sudden a purple gas was introduced into our beds. I was frightened; I hadn't watched my daddy make these and so I didn't know what this gas was. When I looked over at my daddy he smiled at me encouragingly. Then I wasn't scared anymore.

Soon, I got sleepy. I fought to keep my eyes open but I was just too sleepy. The last thing I remember before I fell asleep was seeing ChiChi's content face, a smile on her lips.

Well? Whaddaya think? I like it. Sure, it's a little short, but this chapter was s'ppossed to be short. The next two chapters should be longer. If not then I'll just combined the two.

Ja ne minna!
