It was roughly 9pm on Vegetasei when Vega returned to the castle from her day out with her friend. Vega was looking a little tired when she walked into her fathers throne room.
"Vega, you're back. How was your day?"
"It was fine, daddy. I want to look over those diplomatic stuff, but I'm going to have to pass on the sparing match with you daddy. I'm a little tired. I want to do this stuff then I need to get back." Sighed Vega.
"Fine, when you come home next."
"Alright." smiled Vega. King Vegeta and Vega went to sit down at a table in the room. Vega looked at the pile of papers on the table and sighed a smile at her father, "Do I really have to do this?"
"Yes, your mother was our diplomat before her death, I want you to take her place. She'd be so proud of you." Smiled the King.
"I guess." Said Vega as she opened up the first folder.



Meanwhile back on earth, Vegeta and Bulma had returned. Vegeta walked into his dorm room to find ChiChi and Goku watching a movie and Piccolo half doing his homework and half watching the movie.
"Hey Vegeta! How was your weekend with Bulma?" Cooed Goku.
"It was fine, and if you don't stop talking to me in that tone, I'm gonna kick your ass." Threatened Vegeta.
"Ok." Smiled Goku.
"Speaking of ass kicking; where were you and Vega yesterday?" asked Vegeta. Goku sighed.
"I wasn't with Vega yesterday, I was training with my dad." Said Goku.
"She came back last night, but now she's gone again." Said Piccolo.
"What do you mean she's gone?" snapped Vegeta.
"She left a note on your door that said "I'm gone, V." I think it's my fault that she's gone." Sighed ChiChi.
"What do you mean? What's going on, someone better explain to me why my sister has disappeared!"
"Vega and I got into a fight after she got back last night, my guess is that she was pretty upset about that." Said Piccolo.
"But then she and I got into a fight too. She walked out while we were fighting. None of us have seen her since." Sighed ChiChi.
"So, Vega's been gone since what... midnight?"
"Yea." Said ChiChi.
"We tried looking for her power level, but we couldn't find it."
"Well, that means either she's keeping it really low, or she not on this planet." Said Vegeta; "My bet is that she went home."
"Why would she go home?" asked ChiChi.
"Why don't you tell me? You were the ones fighting with her." Snapped Vegeta.
"Well, look, there's nothing we can do then until she get's back." Said Piccolo.
"If she, comes back." Said Goku.
"She'll be back. Our father isn't going to let her miss school. That I know." smirked Vegeta, "I'm interested in your fight with her, Piccolo. She gets upset rather quickly, if you haven't noticed. So what did you do to piss her off?"
"Vegeta, I'm not discussing it with you." Said Piccolo.
"You remember our agreement, right?" smirked Vegeta.
"If I recall correctly, Vega stopped your agreement." Said ChiChi.
"You stay out of this." Said Vegeta, "So, what happened?"
"I'm not talking about it with you Vegeta, and that's it." Snapped Piccolo.
"Fine, whatever, I'll find out eventually." Sneered Vegeta.
"I'm sure you will, but not from me." said Piccolo. Vegeta smirked at him as he began to unpack his bag from the weekend.




It was early on Monday morning when Vega returned to the dorm. Because it was so early in the morning, everyone was asleep in the dorm. Vega walked into the room and saw that only Bulma was there.
'I guess ChiChi is with Kakarrot.' Vega thought. Vega quietly set her bag down and pulled her nightgown out of her dresser drawer. Soon after she went to bed.

The next morning, Vega woke up to some one shaking her.
"Vega! Wake up!" said ChiChi, who was standing on the ladder next to Bulma's loft.
"What?" Vega moaned, groggily
"Where have you been? We were all worried about you?" ChiChi said, quickly, "Are you ok? Where'd you go? Where'd you stay?" Vega sat up and rubbed her eyes.
"I'm fine." Said Vega, "I went home yesterday."
"We were so worried about you." Sighed ChiChi. She looked at Vega for a moment; "Can I sit down?"
"UH, sure." Said Vega. ChiChi climbed up on to Vega's loft.
"Vega, I'm really sorry about Saturday."
"No, it's alright." said Vega.
"No it's not, I accused you of something that I knew in my heart you never would. Don't be mad, but Goku told me what happened." Said ChiChi. Vega sighed, "Please don't be mad at him."
"I'm not mad, ChiChi." Smiled Vega, "I was going to tell everyone eventually."
"Well, no one else but me and Goku know." said ChiChi.
"What should I say to Piccolo?" sighed Vega, "He knows I lied to him."
"Well, he was pretty worried about you yesterday day, too." Said ChiChi.
"Hmm, I'll bet." Snorted Vega.
"No really he was and I'm sure he still is." Smiled ChiChi, "You should probably go talk to him."
"No, I think I'm going to wait for him to talk to me." said Vega.
"Why, don't you want to clear this up?" asked ChiChi.
"Why? Because he didn't trust me either; he could have said "ok Vega, I trust that you're being faithful to me and I trust that you're ok when you go off for over 12 hours." Said Vega as she mocked Piccolo.
"Why is it that you don't want anyone to know?" asked ChiChi.
"It's not that I don't want anyone to know, it's just that I don't want Vegeta to know. I'll tell everyone eventually. Kakarrot is probably the only person who can beat my brother. I'm fighting Vegeta in the exhibition in a couple weeks and I want to beat him so badly. But, if he knows that Kakarrot is training me, then we'll work extra hard to outsmart me."
"So, you don't want him to know about your special training." Smiled ChiChi.
"Yea, so it's important that you don't let anyone find out." Said Vega.
"I won't, I promise, but only if you talk with Piccolo." Smiled ChiChi.
"No, I'm waiting for him to come to me." smiled Vega, "But I will talk to him."
"I'm sorry, Vega." ChiChi smiled.
"Me too." Smiled Vega as she and ChiChi embraced in a girly hug.


Later that day, Vega was walking into the gym for her combat class. She quickly took notice of Vegeta talking to their instructor. So she causally walked over.
"Hey Vegeta." she smiled.
"Vega, where the hell have you been?" Snapped Vegeta.
"Oh, I went home for the day. I needed to talk to Rosnia." Smiled Vega, "Mrs. Galia says hi."
"Jeez, Vega, you should have told someone!" Vegeta snapped.
"Whatever." Said Vega as she turned to her instructor, "Ok, I'll be in your exhibition, but I have one request."
"Wonderful, Vega, I'm so excited. What's your request?" said the instructor.
"Try and get the ring, out doors. That way no one will get hurt in here."
"I'll see what I can do." Smiled the instructor, "I better go get ready for class." He said as he walked away. Vegeta turned back to Vega.
"So why did you go home?" Vegeta asked.
"I had a fight with Piccolo. I don't really want to talk about it." Sighed Vega.
"Do I have to kick his ass?" growled Vegeta.
"No, and don't even think about it. It's my problem; I'll deal with it. ANYhow, how was your weekend with Bulma?" cooed Vega.
"It was fine." Vegeta snapped back.
"Ah, fine, I remember the last time I used that phrase." Giggled Vega.
"What's that supposed to mean?" Vegeta growled.
"Oh, nothing. I told dad about your girlfriend." Vega giggled again.
"YOU TOLD HIM WHAT!" Vegeta yelled.
"I told him about you and Bulma." Vega laughed out loud.
"Oh, god, Vega, what is wrong with you? He's gonna have a fit when he finds out about you and Piccolo, but did you really have to tell him that. I'm not even going out with her."
"Calm down, I told dad about Piccolo and me too." Said Vega, "He seemed alright with it."
"But it's dad! He might seem fine about it, but I'll bet you he's pissed." Said Vegeta.
"It's fine, don't worry. In fact, don't worry about anything, just know that I'm fine, alright?" said Vega.
"Fine."
"Look I gotta go get ready for class." Smiled Vega, "I'll see you at dinner."
"Ok." With that Vega and Vegeta went their separate ways for the moment.




After Combat training, Vega was in her dorm. She had just got out of the shower. She was wearing a pair of shorts and a red tank top. She was drying her hair with a towel when there was a knock on the door.
"Come in." said Vega as she threw her towel up on her bed and began to brush her hair. Just then piccolo walked from around the small corner.
"Hi." He said sheepishly.
"Hi." She replied with a slight smile.
"So, where have you been?" Piccolo asked with a slightly cold sound in his voice.
"Does it really matter?" replied Vega.
"No, not really."
"Ok then." They both stood there quiet for a few minutes.
"I'm gonna go." Said Piccolo, shaking his head. Vega looked down at her feet and bit her lip, as Piccolo opened the door to leave.
"Wait." Said Vega as she walked up to him. She looked at him for a moment with a teary eyed look, "I'm sorry I lied to you, Piccolo."
"Yea, me too." He said as he walked out the door. Vega stood in the doorway for a moment before walking into the hallway. Piccolo was at the end of the hallway when she called to him.
"PICCOLO!" she yelled
"Yea." He said as he looked over her shoulder at her. She trotted down the hallway to him and when she reached him she threw her arms around his neck and held on to him tightly.
"Please don't leave." She started to cry lightly. Piccolo put his arms around her waist and buried his head between her neck and shoulder as he held her. "Piccolo, I want to fix this, I want to make things right with us again. But, I want to keep my secret about Saturday. Please, you have got to know that I'm with you and no one else. Please, help me out here. I don't know what you want me to do." Vega said as a tear rolled down her face, "I don't want to lose you." Piccolo looked at her for a moment.
"Vega," he said, "I know you weren't with Kakarrot on Saturday, and I'm not mad about that. I don't think I ever really was. What I am upset about is the fact that you lied to me when you told me you went home on Saturday."
"I'm sorry, Piccolo. I never meant to hurt you."
"I know." he smiled. She looked up at him with a few tears running down her face. Piccolo kissed each one of the tears off her face and then lightly kissed her forehead. "Come on. Go get dressed and we'll go meet up with everyone for dinner." Vega smiled at him before she kissed him.


Hi everyone,

Ok, I'm not too particularly fond of this chapter, but it was the best I could come up with. If you have any ideas on how I could either change this or where I should go from here, I would love to hear it. Please review, and I'll try and post the next chapter by like Friday or sometin. K. take care.

Vegea.
