Now, a couple more weeks had gone by. Bra's withdrawal symptoms seemed to be slowing down a little, she was still a little shaky and had horrible headaches, but she was still fiending quit a bit. Not for drugs, but for Nicotine. Everyone was thankful that's all she was fiending for. But for Bra, she wanted to be completely clean.
Bra had been training outside with Vegeta for a good portion of the day. Vegeta was impressed with her drive to succeed in her goal. Although, she wasn't fast, she was strong. After a couple hours, Bra and Vegeta decided to take a break for lunch. While they were in the middle of eating lunch, the phone rang; Bra answered.
"Hello."
"Hi, Bra." Said ChiChi.
"Hi Aunt ChiChi."
"How are you feeling, sweetie?" asked ChiChi.
"I'm doing alright."
"Well that's good. Hey, is your father home?"
"Uh, yea, why?" asked Bra.
"Goku, is driving me nuts. I'm sending him over to spar with your dad." Sighed ChiChi.
"Ok." Giggled Bra, "I guess, I'll see him in a few minutes."
"Thank you!" said ChiChi.
"Bye." Said Bra as she hung up the phone, "Daddy, Uncle Goku is coming over. He's driving ChiChi nuts."
"What! So she's sending him here? No! You call them back and tell them no." yelled Vegeta.
"She's sending him over so he can spar with you daddy." Said Bra sweetly. Vegeta knew what she was trying to do, and it worked.
"Fine." Sighed Vegeta. Just then, Goku appeared out of nowhere and scared Bra half to death. "Kakarrot! Be careful."
"Hiya!" smiled Goku. He looked over to Bra who was sitting at the table. She had started shaking.
"Damn it, Kakarrot! You scared her so bad, she's started shaking again." Vegeta got up and went to the drawer in the kitchen that the Tylenol was kept in. He got out a couple pills and got a glass of water for Bra. "Here princess." He said handing her the medication.
"I'm sorry Bra." Said Goku.
"It's alright. I don't think it was you. My shaking is so rare now, it hardly ever happens." Smiled Bra through her shakes.
"Well, I want you to go lay down and rest until you stop." Said Vegeta.
"Oh please, daddy, I want to watch you and Uncle Goku. I'll lay in one of the lawn chairs outside and watch." Said Bra.
"Ok, fine."
With that, Bra, Goku, and Vegeta walked outside. Bra laid down on one of the lawn chairs, while Goku and Vegeta took stance across from each other in the yard. Their fight started out simple. They went at each other with simple kicks and punches. As the fight went on, Goku and Vegeta got more and more aggressive with each other. The two had already jumped up to SSJ2 and their power level was increasing. Vegeta had taught Bra how to sense power levels in one of her first lessons. Since she already knew how to use and control her Ki and fly, everything else she had to learn was just simple fighting technique. Goku and Vegeta where hurling blasts at one another as well as still physically punching and kicking the stuffing out of each other. The fight waged on for a good 3 hours and Bra watched the whole time. Bra was watching Goku and Vegeta, trying to learn everything she could by watching them.
"Eh, these shakes suck." Said Bra as she started to cough. With Bra's shaking and coughing, on top of all the food she ate at lunch; Bra felt a tingling just below her ears. She knew what was coming. Bra stood up and tried to make it inside. Meanwhile, up in the sky, Vegeta and Goku were charging up rather large Ki blasts. Just before they set them off, Vegeta and Goku heard Bra coughing. They both instinctively looked down at her quickly. Bra had not made it inside. She was holding back her hair, while she was on all fours, throwing up on the ground.
"Bra!" yelled Vegeta.
"Oh Crap!" yelled Goku. As both of their defenses went down, the Ki blasts accidentally released. Their blasts hit each other and they were both knocked down badly hurt and rendered unconscious. Bra looked up from the ground and saw her father and Goku unconscious. She wiped her mouth and ran over to them.
"Daddy! Daddy!" yelled Bra as she started to cry, "Wake up." Seeing that she couldn't wake up her father she ran over to Goku and tried to wake him. "Uncle Goku! Uncle Goku! Please wake up." Bra stood up, still shaking, and thought to herself.
"Oh crap, what do I do. I can't carry either of them. How am I going to get them to the hospital?" Bra wasn't sure what to do. She looked down at Goku, she could tell by the way one of his legs was position that it was either broken or sprained. Suddenly, Vegeta started to move. Bra ran over to him to help him up.
"Daddy! Talk to me." said Bra. All Vegeta did was cough and spit up blood as he fell back down to the ground.
"Are...you...ok?" Vegeta whispered weakly.
"Huh? Yea, Daddy, I have to get you two to a hospital." Bra looked at Vegeta for an answer as to how she could, but he passed out again. "Damn it!" Bra ran into the house and to the phone. She dialed Gohan's number. She sat down on the kitchen floor and waited for someone to answer.
"Damn. No one's home." Bra thought about who she could call next. "Goten's got a cell phone." She smiled, she quickly dialed his phone, but his voice mail picked up immediately meaning he was either on the phone or it was turned off. "Shit! Ok, Bra, calm down, think; Gohan's not home, can't get a hold of Goten, Mom and Trunks are in a meeting." Then an idea hit her, she ran to the drawer to get her mothers address book. She opened the book and flipped to the Y section. She dialed the number she was looking for. The phone rang.
"Hello." Said the male voice on the other end.
"Hi Yamcha! It's Bra."
"Hey, how's it going? How are you feeling?" asked Yamcha, who was actually confused as to why Bra of all people was calling him.
"Um... it's not going so good right now, and you seem to be the only person I can get a hold of." Stuttered Bra.
"Why? What's wrong?"
"Umm... Daddy and Uncle Goku were sparing in the back yard and they knocked themselves unconscious. Daddy's coughing up blood, I think Uncle Goku's leg is broken and..." Bra spoke very quickly.
"Ok, ok, calm down. I'll be there in a flash." Said Yamcha as he hung up the phone. Bra hung up the phone on her end and ran back out to the two-battered Saiyan's. She tried to wake her father again.
"Daddy!" she yelled trying to shake him awake, but to no avail. About five minutes later, Yamcha showed up at Capsule Corp.
"Yamcha, thank Kami you're here." Said Bra.
"Oh man, they look pretty bad."
"I know, we have to get them to a hospital." Cried Bra, "But I'm not strong enough to move them."
"Ok, go get your car and I'll carry them to the car." Bra nodded and she ran off to get the car ready.
It took them about 20 minutes total to get them into the car and get to the hospital. When they took them into emergency, the doctors found that Goku's leg had indeed been broken and Vegeta was suffering from a mild concussion, amongst all of his bruises, scrapes, and cuts, some of which had to be stitched. The doctors admitted both Vegeta and Goku, and once Goku was out of surgery for his leg, they put both Vegeta and Goku in the same room. Not a wise decision on the hospitals part, but convenient for Bra. She had been trying to get a hold of someone, anyone, since she got to the hospital, but no one was around. Yamcha stayed with Bra at the hospital for a short while. When he thought everything was under control he left, because if Vegeta woke up, he was sure, the last thing he wanted to see was him.
Bra was sitting in a chair, still shaking both from worry and withdrawal, trying to get a hold of someone to tell them where they were. Finally after a couple hours of constant dialing, Bra was able to get a hold of Goten.
"Hello?" said Goten.
"Hi Goten, it's me." said Bra.
"Hey Angel. What's up?" asked Goten.
"Well, umm... I'm at the hospital..."
"WHAT! Kami what happened? Are you ok? I'm on my way." Yelled Goten.
"Goten! Calm down. It's not me." said Bra.
"What happened? Why are you there?"
"Well, our fathers seemed to have beaten the life out of each other. Leaving your dad with a broken leg and my dad with a concussion." Sighed Bra.
"Well, I'm still on my way." Said Goten.
"We're on the 8th floor, in room 809." Said Bra, "Your dad got out of surgery about an hour ago. I've been trying to get a hold of someone for like 4 hours. Where is everyone?"
"I have no idea about Gohan and them, I've been shopping with my mom all day. Jeez, you wouldn't believe all the places she made me go." Sighed Goten. Bra just giggled.
"Ok, I'll see you when you get here and you might want to bring your mom." Said Bra.
"Alright. I'll see you soon." Said Goten as he clicked off his Cell phone. Bra hung up the phone. She decided to go get a drink or something, so she left the room and closed the door just leaving a crack open. She walked down the hall to the vending machines and put in her fifty cents and got a soda. She decided to walk around the floor for a bit.
She walked down the hallways, casually looking into the rooms of other patients. She walked past one room and looked in. She couldn't believe whom she saw. She walked into the doorway of the room.
"Rei?" said Bra, "is that you?" The girl looked up at her.
"Bra?" said Rei; "You're the last person I expected to see."
"What happened?" asked Bra.
"I ODed last week. I've been in here since."
"Oh Kami. How do you feel?" asked Bra as she pulled up a chair next to her old friend.
"Like shit. My family is putting me in a rehab clinic. I leave as soon as the doctors tell me I'm allowed." Said Rei, "I think it's time."
"I'm sorry." Said Bra.
"For what?"
"Blaming you, for what happened to me."
"It's alright, I'm sorry for making fun of you for going into rehab." said Rei.
"Accepted." Said Bra.
"So, tell me, why are you here?" asked Rei.
"Well my Dad and a friend of his were sparing, remember I told you they were fighters," Rei nodded," and they put themselves in the hospital. I was just walking around when I saw you in here."
"Dumb luck." Said Rei.
"What?"
"I got a visitor on dumb luck."
"No ones visited you?" said Bra sadly.
"No. I think we made friends with the wrong people. Jason, Jazelle, Wade; all of them are so into their drugs that if you don't do them, they won't talk to you. I realized a couple days after I woke up that, I don't want to do this anymore. I've been "addicted" to them since I was in high school." Said Rei, "I think it's time for me to grow up."
"I'm glad you think so. Getting clean is difficult. I fell off the wagon once." Said Bra, "and I'm really determined to stay on it."
"Can I ask what made you fall off?" asked Rei.
"Well, some old demons came back to haunt me and I believed every word they said. I wanted to die that night, and had my father and Goten not come for me, I'm sure I would have." Said Bra.
"Goten?" asked Rei.
"The man of my dreams." Smiled Bra.
"It must be nice. Vic hasn't been in to see me either." Said Rei. Bra noticed a tear start to form in her eye.
"Why not?" asked Bra.
"Because he's just like everyone else." Said Rei, "I thought we'd be together forever. He was always good to me; he never hit me, or yelled at me. He always bought flowers for me. He was the best thing in my life." Rei was no longer holding back her tears, "and now, he wants nothing to do with me because I want to be clean and free of drugs."
"Everyone has their prince charming Rei. I know you'll find yours." Smiled Bra, "You just have to clean yourself up first."
"Thanks. I know we haven't known each other that long, but you are a true friend. I'm sorry I couldn't be the same to you."
"Hey, don't apologize. I met you at a bad time in my life, but I wouldn't take it back. I learned a lot from it. But, to be honest with you, if you weren't here right now, I'm sure I wouldn't be talking to you." Said Bra.
"Likewise."
"Well, look, I've been gone from my father room for quite awhile now. I should probably be getting back." Said Bra.
"Alright. Thank you for stopping in, it was good to see you." Said Rei. Bra smiled back at her as she leaned over to give her old friend a hug.
"If you have a chance, before you leave for the clinic, maybe we could go get some lunch." Said Bra.
"I'd like that." Said Rei as she was reaching into the drawer next to her bed. Rei pulled out one of her bracelets and put it on Bra's wrist, "Sure, we made these when we were high, but it still means friendship."
"It sure does." Smiled Bra as she left the room.
Bra walked back to her father's room with a smile on her face. She couldn't believe of all the people to see her, she saw Rei and she's going into rehab. Bra was happy her friend was going to get the help she needed. Bra walked into her fathers room and Goten was there reading the medical chart for Goku.
"Hey." Said Bra with a larger smile.
"Hey." Replied Goten as he set down the chart and walked over to her to give her a hug. He sat down in the chair she moved to sit in his lap. Once she sat down on his lap, he noticed the plastic bracelet on her wrist. He immediately recognized it from when she was doing drugs. He lifted up her wrist. "Bra, what is this?"
"It's a bracelet." Said Bra.
"I know that and I also remember what was going on last time you wore one of these. I thought we threw all of them away?" said Goten with a worried look on his face. Bra looked at him and smiled. She ran her hand down his cheek and kissed him softly on the lips.
"Don't worry, a friend gave it to me." smiled Bra.
"Who?" asked Goten.
"Rei." Smiled Bra.
"What!?" yelled Goten.
"Shhh, I don't want to wake them." Said Bra pointing to their parents, "Yes, I got it from Rei. She's here, in the hospital, she overdosed. Apparently going into rehab once she leaves here."
"Wow, I guess she's not laughing now, huh." Said Goten.
"No she's not. She apologized. I'm happy she's going into rehab. I hope when she's clean we can hang out again. She really was fun." Smiled Bra.
"I hope it all works out for her." Said Goten.
"Me too." Said Bra. Just then the door to the room opened slowly and in walked Trunks, Pan and Bulma.
"Hey." Whispered Pan. Bulma walked over to Vegeta's bed and picked up the glass of water next to his bed.
"Mom, what are you doing?" asked Trunks.
"This moron is waking up." said Bulma as she threw the luke warm water on his face. Once it hit his face he started to wake up a little. He slowly opened his eyes to see his mate standing over him with a disapproving look on her face. Behind her, the four demi-saiyans were laughing their heads off.
"Woman, what in Kami's name did you do that for?" weakly said Vegeta.
"What the hell were you thinking? You broke Goku's leg; you have a concussion and several sets of stitches. Are you crazy?" yelled Bulma.
"Shut up." said Vegeta in a tone barely above a whisper. Just then the door opened again and ChiChi walked in with Gohan and Videl.
"What happened?" wailed ChiChi looking at her husband.
"It's my fault." Said Bra. Everyone looked at her, "Yea, I was watching them fight outside and I was shaking and I ate too much at lunch and I threw up and distracted them when they were charging up a Ki blast and well...Boom." Bra weakly smiled.
"How are you feeling, princess?" asked Vegeta.
"I'm fine daddy." Said Bra, "Perfectly fine." Vegeta just flashed her a smirk.
Bra had been training outside with Vegeta for a good portion of the day. Vegeta was impressed with her drive to succeed in her goal. Although, she wasn't fast, she was strong. After a couple hours, Bra and Vegeta decided to take a break for lunch. While they were in the middle of eating lunch, the phone rang; Bra answered.

"It's my fault." Said Bra. Everyone looked at her, "Yea, I was watching them fight outside and I was shaking and I ate too much at lunch and I threw up and distracted them when they were charging up a Ki blast and well...Boom." Bra weakly smiled.
"How are you feeling, princess?" asked Vegeta.
"I'm fine daddy." Said Bra, "Perfectly fine." Vegeta just flashed her a smirk.
