*~*DBZ REALM 14 years ago*~*

A well-known group of people
 Were currently waiting for a friend of theirs. Bulma Briefs. She had just gone into labor a
 little over two hours ago. Bulma had managed to get a hold of Chi Chi, who in turn rounded
 up a few of the other Z senshi. They had all been surprised to hear of Bulma having a baby.
 All except Goku that is. 
 
 Goku was stretched out in one of the hard plastic chairs, snoring. Chi Chi, his wife,
 was drilling their son Gohan on his math. "You are so far behind! I never should've let you
 go and train with your father! School is so much more important!" Gohan just sighed as he
 continued with his trigonometry. *Doesn't she realize that I have to train so I can fight
 against the androids?*
 
 The old hentai turtle master, Roshi, was playing a game of poker with Oolong. "Ha! Two
pair! Beat that you old fart!" Oolong grinned and spread his cards over the top of the fold up 
card table. Roshi just grinned as light glinted off of his large sunglasses. "That's too
bad Oolong because two pair can't beat my royal flush! Ha ha! Beat you again!" 
 
 Roshi started sweeping his 'hard won' loot off the table as Oolong glared. "Your
 cheating aren't you?" Roshi laughed as he stacked up a few of the dirty magazines he had
 won and leafed through one of them. "I don't need to cheat to win a card game!" *Besides,
 who cares if I keep a few aces up my sleeve?* He laughed again as Oolong just grumbled
 under his breath.
 
 Krillen was in the far corner, trying to get a vending machine to work. "Come on 
you hunk of junk!" He kicked it fiercely to try and dislodge the bag of chips from where it was
stuck. His kick didn't dislodge the chips however. All it did was make a large dent in the
metal. The short bald man just frowned and made his way back to his seat. "Stupid
machine."
 
 He sat down next to Goku and poked his long time friend in the ribs to wake him
 up. The startled saiyan jumped to his feet with a yell. Krillen just laughed. "It was just me
 Goku! Why are you so jumpy?" Goku chuckled slightly. "Oh, sorry Krillen. I was having a
 nightmare I guess." 
 
 Krillen stared. "Really? What was it about? It could be an omen or something." 
Goku rubbed the back of his neck in embarrassment. "Well, it had something to do with 
Bulma. Someone came and stole her-" He was interrupted by a growl of inpatients from 
the other occupant of the small room. Vegeta.
 
 The saiyan prince was pacing from one side of the room and back again. He kept
 muttering things under his breath and occasionally punching the air to let out his anger.
 When he had first started his pacing he had surprised them all. Vegeta worried?
 
~Flashback~
 
 "Um, Vegeta?" Said saiyan spun on his heel to face the speaker. "What do you 
want Kakarott?!" Goku blinked a few times, totally unfazed by the saiyan prince's 
yelling. "Well, we were all sort of wondering why you were pacing. After all, 
there's nothing to be worried about!" He grinned at Vegeta as the shorter of the 
two tried to hold his temper. 
 
 *Baka! If that woman weren't in this hospital I would just. . . * "Kakarott! 
Baka! I'm not pacing! I came here in the middle of training and am therefore cooling 
down!" He resumed his pacing and Goku settled into the chair next to Chi Chi. He 
smirked slightly. "Sure Vegeta." Then, with a yawn, he closed his eyes.
 
~End of Flashback~
 
 Even after two hours Vegeta was still 'cooling down'. Krillen, still angry 
for wasting his money on the chips and also quite nervous for Bulma, was starting 
to get annoyed of the relentless tapping of the saiyan's boots. His left eye started 
twitching suddenly. *I can't take it anymore!* "Vegeta! Just sit down already! You 
don't have to worry about--ERK!" His sentence was cut short by the hand suddenly 
wrapped around his neck. 
 
 "Don't you dare try to tell me what to do baldy! For your information-" 
Vegeta was stopped from killing the nose-less wonder when a nurse walked in. "Is 
this the group waiting for Ms. Briefs?" 
 
 Everyone who was sitting jumped to their feet and Goku stepped forward. "Yeah.
 That's us! Is she okay?" The nurse smiled brightly. "Oh yes, she's okay. The babies are
 doing fine as well." Everyone blinked. Chi Chi stepped up next to her husband. "Babies?
 As in, plural?" The nurse smiled even wider. "Yes. And I have to say, those two are the
 cutest twins I have ever seen in this hospital." Everyone's mouths gapped open. Vegeta's
 most of all. "Twins?!" The nurse blinked in surprise at the noise. "Yes. Ms. Briefs has had
 twins. Didn't you know that she would?"
 
 Vegeta pushed past the Son's and stared the nurse in the eye. "Where are they?
 What room?!" The nurse stuttered in fear. "I ca- can't tell you that! They need to rest!"
 Goku sighed and pulled the nurse aside slightly. "You can let him see them since he's the
 father." The nurse stared at Vegeta in surprise but then started giggling. 
 
 Vegeta growled in anger "What's so funny?!" The nurse blushed and backed away
 again. "Oh! I'm sorry I laughed but now I can see that your the father. Your face looks quite
 a lot like the little boy's." Everyone in the room blinked yet again and Vegeta just stood.
 *Looks like me? That's . . . that's. . * The nurse then grabbed his wrist and pulled him
 through the doorway.
 
 After they had gone a short distance from the room the nurse leaned to him with a
 worried expression. "I'm glad I was able to talk with one of the parents about this. You see,
 there seems to be an. . . abnormality with your children." Vegeta just smirked but
 the nurse continued, undaunted. "We have already scheduled surgery to fix the problem so
 you needn't worry." 
 
 Vegeta's smirk stayed in place. "I don't think that will be necessary. I'm sure their
 mother and I will be able to deal with this little 'abnormality'." The nurse sighed but
 continued to Bulma's room.
 
 When they reached the dimly lit room all Vegeta could see was a sleeping Bulma. 
He frowned. "Where are the children?" The nurse smiled. "I thought you might want to talk
with Ms. Briefs before I went to the nursery to get them." She started closing the door
behind her then turned back at the last moment with a smile. "I'll be back in a few
minutes."
 
 Vegeta stared at Bulma from where he stood by the door. Even though he hardly
 showed emotions, he did let one show on his face whenever he was alone with her. Love. *I
 still find it hard to believe that I fell for this weak earthling.* He smirked as he made his
 way to the bed. There was a small stool set next to the bed that he soon made use of.
 Leaning against the metal railing of the bed, he tried to think of a way to wake the blue

haired woman.

Vegeta was still leaning against the railing of the bed when the nurse returned. He
 immediately jumped to his feet when he heard the door starting to open. in came the nurse
 holding two small bundles. One wrapped in a pink blanket, the other in blue. "Here they
 are." She set the blue bundle on the bed next to Bulma, making sure it wouldn't fall, then
 turned to Vegeta with the pink. "I thought you might want to see what I was talking about
 when I said she had an abnormality." 
 
 The nurse unwrapped the baby from the blanket and held her slightly aloft so that
 Vegeta could see her. There, swinging slightly side to side in the air, was a small white tail.
 The baby opened her blue eyes and her eyes wandered around the room, coming to rest on
 Vegeta's frozen form. She gurgled at the prince but received no response. He was too
 shocked.
 
 *Why is her tail white? Is there really something wrong with her?* The nurse took 
in his shocked look with a nod. "A tail. If you have second thoughts about your earlier
 decision, we'd still be able to operate before her mother finds out." Vegeta blinked 
a few times then roared at the nurse. "Of course there won't be an operation! I told 
you that I'd deal with it! Now get out!" The nurse hurriedly complied. 
 
 His yells fortunately didn't awaken the sleeping mother but they did wake up the
 little boy in his mother's arms. He started wailing up at Vegeta, who just stared. The baby in
 his arms caught his attention again when he heard her giggle. He turned his head back to
 her, half in annoyance half in interest. She had soft dark hair and brown eyes that
 seemed to stared straight into his soul. She smiled again and Vegeta was startled when he
 felt himself smiling back. He saw how she looked so much like him.
*So. This little brat is my heir because of her tail. Too bad it was a female.* He smirked down at his daughter who in turn giggled and strained her arms trying to reach
 him. Vegeta chuckled softly, not even noticing that the other infant had stopped crying.
 He extended one finger over the baby girl's head, catching her attention. He slowly started
 waggling it back and forth and her eyes followed. Much like a cat ready to pounce, her tail
 started twitching. She set her mouth in determination and clenched her hands into small
 fists. This only caused Vegeta's smirk to widen. 
*She is feisty though.* She suddenly reached up as far as her tiny arms would 
allow and caught his finger in between her tiny hands. She giggled in triumph and started
 shaking the finger in joy. Vegeta laughed again. "Maybe you are worthy of being my heir." 
A sudden wind blew up, even though the room had no window. "Vegeta spun on his heel,
 instinctively clutching the infant close to him. Behind them stood the senshi of time. 
"Greetings your highness. I'm afraid I've come to take away your daughter." This
 simple statement caused Vegeta to freeze momentarily in shock. *What?! How dare she!*
 "Just who the hell do you think you are?! You can't just waltz in here and demand my heir!"
 He clenched his fist in anger as the silent infant in his arms watched in wonder.
"I'm afraid that's where your wrong your highness. I'm Sailor Pluto, guardian of 
time and protector of that child in your arms. I'm here to take her to another dimension 
where she is also a princess. Her strength is needed to fight a great threat." Vegeta's 
only response was a growl before Pluto quickly continued. "She is to stay in that 
dimension until after she is 14. After that, I will send her home to you, if you wish. 
I will erase everyone else's memory of this child except for yours. Do you want me too?"
Vegeta had had enough of this crazy woman. Different dimensions? Changing time? "Woman! 
You will never lay a hand on my daughter! Even if your story were true, she is my heir! I have
to train her so she will be a true warrior and take the throne after me!"
Sailor Pluto just chuckled. "You needn't worry about that your highness. I will
 personally teach her all she needs to know until she return to your world. Now, it is time 
for us to depart." She made to reach for the tiny vegeta in his arms but he pulled her out of
 reach. "You've tried my patience enough! Big ban--" His attack was cut short for a very
 simple reason. Pluto had frozen time. 
She swiftly picked up the tiny princess and moved back into the portal, turning back 
only once so as to leave her letter. It explained everything in even greater detail. As she 
was walking through she unfroze time, just soon enough so that Vegeta would see her leave but
 not be able to stop her.
All he could do was stare at the wall where the portal had formed. *I'll get you back.
I'll get you back if it's the last thing I do!
* ~Capsule Corp.~
 
 Bulma Briefs blew a strand of hair out of her face as she tried to concentrate on her
 work. A single bead of sweat tracked down her face. *Just a little bit more and-* Her
 concentration was broken by a loud banging. She yelped in surprise and the small metal
 contraption in front of her sputtered and fizzed then started smoking. She looked down at
 the product of all her tinkering. *Shoot! Now I have to start all over again!*
 
 With an exasperated sigh she brushed the strand of hair from her face and leaned
 back over the worktable. She was just getting into position to reconnect some wires when
 there was another bang. This time she jumped to her feet and stormed out of the room.
 "Trunks!! How many times do I have to tell you not to fight with Goten inside the house!" 
She rushed into the purple haired boys room. There on the floor were Trunks and
 Goten. Playing a card game. Quietly. The two boys stared up at the blue haired woman.
 "What are you talking about Mom? We're just playing cards." Bulma blinked and was about
 to ask what the noise was but never got the chance. There was another loud bang and since
 Bulma was in a different part of the building she could now tell where it was coming from.
 She turned away from the two perplexed boys with a grim frown. "Vegeta." Goten moved his card. 
"Imagine if I had a twin just like you…that would be soooo kewl!" He yelled. Trunks sighed. 
"Yeah but I don't know where my sister is hiding, no one can find her."
Vegeta drew in one ragged breath after another as he tried to keep his temper in
 check. After all, he had just dented almost every wall in the gravity room. *Stupid woman!*
 He wasn't referring to his wife either. He was thinking of a certain warrior of time. He
 growled again in anger and started throwing punch after punch at an invisible assailant. 
 After she had left, Vegeta had read through Sailor Pluto's letter thoroughly. She had
 explained in great detail what his daughters 'past' life had been like. It had also given a
 summary of what Pluto had hoped 'Veggie' would accomplish in the other dimension. *Veggie.
 Not only did she steal her away but she took it upon herself to name the brat! And all that
 nonsense of fighting witches and demons. Bah! Whoever heard of saving the world with a
 piece of jewelry! But at least she was named after me.*
 
Even after eight years he still hadn't gotten over the sting of having his daughter
 stolen out from under his nose. (An: Literally!) Eight years of never seeing her, never
 getting to show her how to fight, never actually knowing her. He did however have a strange
 dream every year on the anniversary of the birth of the twins. *It's all that stupid woman!
 She send me the dreams to torment me! Why didn't she just erase my memory like
 everyone else?!* 
 
 After Veggie's kidnapping Vegeta had tried to get Goku to help him find her. Also to
 help kill Sailor Pluto. He had only been laughed at. He had no daughter so how could she
 have been kidnapped? He only had a son with no tail. Trunks. He'd decided to let out his
 frustration on Goku and that was the end of it. 
 
 *But it was only the end of it as far as Kakarott was concerned.* Vegeta lifted two
 barbells and continued punching. *Once I have time I'll collect the dragon balls and 
 summon the dragon. Then . . . * "I'll tear that bitch limb from limb!!" With his exclamation
 he punched the wall, causing yet another of the mysterious bangs. (AN: *LOL*)
*End of Realm*

"So tomorrow is Veggie's 14th birthday, I should get her something." Ginger said to her pet. "Yes, you should."

Ginger was home and was sleeping over veggie's tomorrow. *Another year and 4 days and I turn 14!* Then suddenly there was a cool breeze and standing in front of Ginger was a raven eyed senshi. Sailor Pluto…Ginger looked surprised because she hasn't seen her since the last fight against mistress 9, 3 years ago. "Hey Puu, what's bugging you?" Ginger smiled at her old friend. She smiled back and sighed. "Well it's mostly about your friend, universe…" Ginger's smiled faded. "What happened to Veggie!" She yelled. Puu looked surprised at Ginger's reaction to her friend. "It's not what happened, it's what will happen…I wish I could explain to you." A worried face appeared on Gingers mask of emotions.
