Disclaimer: I don't own dbz or anything. Whoops, I think I forgot the disclaimer in the last chapter. Sorry!!
AN: Well, what can I say? Ok, I think this chapter will be the last angst-free chapter. If you get what I mean. The next chapter will be the lemon *I think*. Well, great, now I've got to get a friend to write the lemon for me. As you all know, I absolutely cannot write lemons. If you've read my original version, it was something like "They both laid down on the bed and it was a night they wouldn't forget." HAHA, now I look back and think that was pathetic of me to write that. Well, I promise you there WILL be a proper lemon next chapter. Here are some shout outs:
Sorceress Fujin: Sorry I kept you waiting
Android18: Haha, the wish wasn't my idea. It was my friend's.
Well... on with the story.
Beyond Higher Things: Chapter Four
By mistY AnGeL (pink_angel91@hotmail.com)
Everyone ran to the direction of where they heard the crash. Everyone jolted to a halt once they saw the sight in front of them. A round and white spaceship lay on the ground, on the dent that it had caused. Smoke was rising from the machine.
"Oh bummer! I hope this isn't another bunch of aliens who wanna take over our planet!" Krillen said.
They then heard an ominous hum as the door of the machine opened. Two people stepped out.
"But Krillen, they look pretty human to me," Gohan said.
Everyone stared at the two people, or rather, children.
One seemed around sixteen with purple hair and the other was much younger around seven with aqua blue hair. They stared straight ahead as they felt the awareness of dozens of eyes watching them.
"Hmm. Blue hair. They look familiar, don't they?" Yamcha asked.
"I know. They look so familiar but I know that I have never met them before," Bulma replied.
Suddenly the kids started talking. "We're looking for Vegeta!" the purple haired boy said.
Everyone blinked and stared at them without saying a word.
"How do you know Vegeta?" Krillen questioned them suspiciously.
"And what are your names? Where do you come from? How did you get here" Bulma flooded them with questions.
The older one answered. "I'm Trunks and this is my sister, Bra. We're from the future! We're looking for Vegeta because he is our father!"
Everyone's face looked shocked. Krillen looked like he was about to burst out laughing. "You're kidding. Vegeta had kids? That's a new one."
Trunks looked very serious. "We have to warn him about his future, about his planet. And we'd come to help fight Frieza!"
Piccolo glared at them. "And how exactly do we know that you're not going to turn against us?"
"And who is your mother anyway?" Krillen cut in.
"Our mother? It's Bulma. Bulma Briefs," Trunks replied nonchalantly.
Everyone fell over. (Anime style)
Yamcha started laughing. "Your kidding right?"
Trunks shook his head. "Nope. I'm serious. Bra, show them your locket that mom gave you."
Bra reached her arms out towards her neck and pulled out a chain, revealing a locket. She opened the locket and showed everyone. Inside the delicate silver, heart shaped locket was a picture. The picture was small and everyone had to lean over to see it. It was a picture with Bulma and Vegeta standing together. Vegeta had his arms around Bulma and Bulma was carrying Bra. Trunks was standing next to Vegeta.
Bulma's face turned pale. "I can't believe this!"
Yamcha's face also turned pale. "Wait till I get my hands on Vegeta!"
Bra was staring at Bulma. "Mommy, is that you?"
Bulma started to hesitate. "Well, I am Bulma."
Bra ran to Bulma and Bulma gave her a hug. "Wow. I feel so close to you. I guess it's because you are my future daughter."
She turned to Trunks. "So why have you exactly come to the past for?"
Trunks took a deep breath and started to explain. "Because Frieza killed dad but he got wished back. Also that his planet got destroyed by a natural disaster but I don't think we can prevent that from happening. Also in the future, in about three years, there are these androids and another evil android called Cell. Most of you guys got killed and couldn't be wished back so that is why I am warning you now."
"We'll stay here until we defeat Frieza and then we'll go back into the future," Bra cut in.
Bulma smiled. "Alright. I'll take you to Vegeta. He is at his spaceship. We'll take my air car," she said quite reluctantly.
She threw a capsule and there was a poof of smoke. When the smoke faded, in front of them, stood a shiny yellow air car. Bulma, Bra and Trunks jumped in.
Bulma grabbed the wheel and turned to face the others. "I'll come back and tell you what happens. See ya later!"
Goku waved goodbye to them. "Be careful, Bulma!" he screamed out.
Bulma smiled as she turned on the engine and her car started to move.
As they were driving along the busy road, Bulma decided to ask Trunks a few questions, just to get the curiosity out of her mind. "So do you train?"
There was silence for a moment. "Yes. Bra and I both train with dad. That was before he died."
Bulma was confused. "He died? How?"
There was a long pause before Trunks answered. "He died because Cell killed him. I was only two. But then Kami let him came back occasionally in his mortal form for visits. That's how I think Bra was born."
Trunks felt uneasy telling her "that" part. Bulma blushed.
~I still can't believe that Vegeta and me liked each other even though I admit he's pretty cute. Where did that come from? ~ Bulma thought.
The sun was blazing high in the sky when they arrived at where Vegeta's spaceship was. It was near the amusement park. It was still quite early in the morning. Memories flooded through Bulma's mind as she stepped out of her car. Trunks and Bra did the same.
She walked towards the spaceship and there were guards standing there.
"What do you want?" the guards demanded, with a harsh, cold tone.
"I must see Vegeta," Bulma stated.
The guard stepped inside the ship for a while then stepped back out. "Alright. The prince agreed."
He dragged her along the hallway and threw her in a corner.
Trunks and Bra had followed behind. Bra ran to Bulma. "Are you alright?"
"Who the hell are you?" A voice growled from behind.
Bra spun around quickly, her eyes were wide open. "D- daddy?"
Vegeta scowled. "What did you just call me?"
Trunks put his hand on Bra's mouth, so her reply was muffled and could not be understood. "Nothing. She's only a child. She can get confused.
Vegeta grunted and started to cross his arms. He then turned towards Bulma. "So what are you doing here, woman? What is your purpose to come here with these two brats?"
Bulma started to show anger and was about to blurt out everything, but then stopping herself. She didn't want to tell Vegeta everything. "These are children who came from the future just an hour ago."
Vegeta stared at her. "Is this some kind of joke? Do you really expect me to believe that?"
Bulma started to feel even angrier. "Listen here, they have come all the way from the future to save our asses being kicked and this is how you react?"
Vegeta scowled then turned to Trunks. "So what do you want with me, brat?"
"We're here to warn you about your future." Trunks explained everything to Vegeta about his planet and how Vegeta had stayed on Earth.
Vegeta raised an eyebrow. "Why should I listen to everything you say?"
"Because you don't want to die. Do you?" Trunks replied, feeling rather furious about the way his "father's" behavior.
"Ok kid, I'll take your advise on it but that doesn't mean I believe you. Now go!"
Trunks nodded and took Bra's hand and left the room.
Vegeta turned to Bulma. "So what should I do about you?"
Bulma stood up. "I'll just leave too."
Before she could move, Vegeta grabbed her arm. "Just remember that I'm taking you back to planet Vegeta as my slave no matter what happens," he growled.
He then let go and Bulma quickly got out of the ship.
~*~
Frieza stared out of the window and smiled.
"Only a couple of days and then I will possess the power of immortality!"
He laughed evilly. Then Zarbon walked in.
"Master Frieza, I have just found out that Vegeta is also on planet Earth."
Frieza looked angry. "What?! What is he doing there? It doesn't matter because his power would never match mine! The universe will be mine and everyone will bow before my feet!"
"There is three more days to be exact." (Yes, time flies when you're reading)
Frieza laughed again. "Good."
~*~
It was dinnertime and Bulma sat down the table with the rest of the Z gang. Goku wasn't there because he was in the gravity room training very hard. She was more quiet then usual and barely touched her food.
Bra sat next to her and noticed it. "Mommy."
Bulma looked up.
"Huh? Yeh?" Although Bra was Bulma's "future" daughter, she felt like she knew Bra all her life. She felt so close and she had the same feeling for Trunks.
She loved both of them like a mother and she thought Bra was the sweetest thing ever.
"Mommy, is daddy ever going to come here. I miss him. And I'm upset because he doesn't even know that I'm his daughter!"
Bulma looked confused.
Trunks cut in. "Mother, you see, in our time, Bra used to be dad's favourite. They were so close, if even they rarely got to see each other. I guess she isn't used to the fact that Vegeta is acting like he doesn't know her."
Bulma nodded. "I understand."
She took another bite of her food and looked up. Krillen was having one of the usual conversations with Gohan, Yamcha was just staring at Bulma, Piccolo was talking to Tien, and Chiao- Tsu was listening to them.
Bulma sighed. She didn't really know what to think.
~So what should I do? In the future, I'm supposed to be with Vegeta but I don't see how I actually ended up with him. I can't just leave Yamcha for him. Even though I do find him attractive.~
She sighed again and decided to ask more about the future.
"Trunks, how did I ever end up being with Vegeta?"
Everyone stopped in their conversation and just stared at Bulma.
Trunks cleared his throat and everyone turned to him.
"Well, you see, Yamcha was dishonest and dad was lonely."
Yamcha snorted. "And…"
Trunks continued. "That's all I can say."
Yamcha looked a bit irritated and went back to eating.
Krillen nearly laughed out loud. "Seems like a pretty weird relationship to me."
Bulma blushed and looked down at her plate, not knowing whether or not to make any comments. After a minute of silence, everyone went back to their conversations.
~*~
It was the next morning and Bulma got up early to tend to Trunks and Bra.
She had ordered some new clothes for them and cooked them some breakfast. The omelets, toast, and sausages seemed okay compared to her usual cooking.
She then decided take Trunks and Bra to Vegeta's spaceship since Bra had been nagging to her the previous night.
She took them in her air car and she parked in front of the spaceship. They stepped out and walked inside the ship. A few guards had stopped them and after some protest, they agreed to take them to see Vegeta. They went to the training room where Vegeta was busy sparring. He seemed frustrated because he was so strong compared to the rest of his men. As they walked in, Vegeta turned around and glared at them angrily. "Why did you distract me in the middle of my training, you weak earthlings!"
Trunks and Bra protested. "We're half Saiyans!"
Vegeta looked surprised. "Half Saiyans? But me and Kakarot are the only Saiyans on this planet. Unless…"
Trunks frowned. "Listen, I respected you in my timeline, but this is so different. You are completely different from the way I know you. What happened?"
Vegeta narrowed his eyes and started to sneer. "I don't know what you are talking about. How dare you address me like this! Are you trying to apply that I was soft? You are such a pathetic weakling, I would never turn soft!"
"It's part of our time and we're not weak!" Bra pouted her lips.
Vegeta laughed. "Don't try to be funny because you'll regret it. Let's spar! Maybe I can prove to you exactly how weak you are."
Trunks pulled Bra to the side. "Remember whatever you do, don't reveal your true power," he whispered very softly to her.
Bra nodded. Trunks turned to Vegeta. "Alright. We're ready to take you on."
Bulma cut in. "I don't want Bra fighting, she might get hurt."
Vegeta snorted. "Step aside woman. This is our fight. I'll take the small kid first."
Bulma quickly stepped aside. "Be careful. Are you sure you know what you're doing?"
Bra nodded.
Vegeta ran full speed and started charging towards her. She disappeared and reappeared behind him. Vegeta gasped as he saw the little girl disappear out of his sight.
"Ka…me…ha…me..ha!" She shot a beam that hit Vegeta and he fell on the floor. He wiped some blood off the side of his mouth. "What?! How could a small kid be so fast and so strong?"
Bra started to stand in one position, feeling paralyzed. ~How could I have hurt daddy? Was he really that weak in the past? Oh no… I didn't mean to hurt him!!~
Trunks stepped in, interrupting her thoughts.
"It's my turn, I'll take it from here. Look Vegeta, we don't really want to fight you because we respect you."
Vegeta scowled. "I won't give up that easily."
He quickly shot a number of beams at Trunks but Trunks dodged each one of them.
The battle between the two went on until Vegeta barely had enough energy to stand up. He never expected them to have so much power. He knew that they were much stronger than him but he didn't want to admit it.
Trunks threw him a senzu bean. "Eat it. It will restore your energy."
Vegeta looked at it, hesitated and shoved it in his mouth, chewing it slowly. Then he felt his strength return. "That bean could be very useful in battle."
Bulma ran to Bra and Trunks. "Are you okay? Are you hurt?"
They both shook their head. Bra smiled. "That was fun!"
Bulma had a worried look on her face. "Well, we don't have much longer till Frieza arrives so we better leave Vegeta alone to train."
Trunks nodded. "Only two more days."
The three left the spaceship and headed back to Capsule Corporation.
~*~
Yamcha, Krillen, Piccolo, Gohan, Tien and Chiao Tsu were training outside near Capsule Corporation when they saw Bulma's car coming by. It stopped and Bulma, Trunks and Bra jumped out.
Everyone ran towards Bulma.
"So what happened?" Krillen asked.
Bulma smiled. "It was okay. He challenged Trunks and Bra and they took the challenge."
Everyone was staring at her. Bulma laughed. "I know that you're all wondering what happened and Trunks and Bra really kicked Vegeta's ass!"
Everyone gasped.
"Are you serious? I mean, they won against Vegeta?" Krillen asked.
Bulma nodded.
Krillen turned to Trunks and Bra. "Do you guys train?"
They both nodded. "Do you want to train with us?"
They shook their head. "We feel ready to take down Frieza," Trunks said.
Yamcha snorted. "You guys really think that you can defeat Frieza alone?"
Bulma glared at him. He shut his mouth and stared at the floor.
"Alright, enough of this chit-chat. You guys should go back training!" Bulma ordered.
Everyone nodded and started to walk away. Bulma turned to Trunks and Bra. "Meanwhile, all we can do now is hope for the best."
~*~
It was early morning two days later. Bulma woke up feeling nervous. Today is the day that Frieza would arrive. All she could do is hope they would defeat him.
She got up and got dressed.
She walked downstairs to make breakfast and get ready to take them to the battlefield where her friends usually trained. She then remembered that Goku had spent about six days training hard in her dad's gravity machine and she wondered how he was doing.
After making breakfast, she walked outside to the gravity room and knocked on the door. The door opened and Goku stepped out. She gasped and realised how much he seemed to change. He looked much stronger and he had confidence.
"Hi Bulma! I'm ready to take Frieza!"
Bulma smiled. "Have you met Trunks and Bra?"
Goku scratched his head. "Who?"
"I want you to meet them."
Goku followed Bulma inside the house.
~*~
Frieza looked outside the window. "Only half an hour 'til I look for the dragonballs and wish for immortality."
Zarbon walked in. "We have everything organized and ready for landing."
Frieza laughed. "Good."
~*~
Goku finally got over the shock about Bulma and Vegeta's kids and decided to look for the others.
"They should be at the field waiting for Frieza," Bulma informed him.
"Thanks Bulma. Oh, and by the way, I hope you do get together with Vegeta somehow. I mean, maybe he wouldn't be so evil and cruel being with you."
Before Bulma could slap him, Goku flew off.
"Wow. He is seriously stronger then before!"
She turned to Trunks and Bra. "I guess I'll take you to the field in my car."
They both nodded and climbed into Bulma's car.
Bulma switched her car into fly mode and the car morphed into a plane. Bra peered out of the window and saw the beautiful landscape. ~I wish that home would be as wonderful as this~
The plane flew over to the field and landed. Everyone was already there, even Vegeta.
Trunks and Bra jumped off and joined them.
"What are these two brats doing here?" Vegeta demanded.
Bulma frowned. "For your information, they're stronger then you are, you do realise."
Vegeta scowled. "You shouldn't be here. It's far too dangerous for a weakling to be out here."
Bulma was about to object but then a ship landed and they realised that it was Frieza's.
Bulma ran behind Yamcha scared stiff. "Oh my god! It's Frieza!"
The door hummed as it slowly opened and Frieza stepped out. Two of his men followed behind. "We're finally here."
Bulma stared at one of his men who had green hair. "Whoa! With his good looks I don't think he's a bad guy!"
Yamcha stared at her. "Umm Bulma, I think you should step to the side."
Bulma frowned but listened to him.
~*~
It had been an hour of fighting and Frieza still hadn't moved a muscle.
His two henchmen were really strong and so far, Chiao Tsu had already died from his self destruct attack. Tien was gone and so had Yamcha.
Bulma felt like she was living in her own nightmare. She had cried out loud when Yamcha died. Piccolo was knocked down and couldn't get back up. He was dragged to the side with Bulma, Vegeta, Trunks, Bra and Goku who were watching the fight.
There was a pink creature called Dodoria. Gohan and Krillen were up against him but he was way too strong for them. They had fallen to the floor and helpless.
Dodoria was about to blast them but Goku stepped in and easily defeated him.
"I had just about enough! You have killed some of my friends and you will pay!"
Goku let out an angry roar and suddenly, his hair turned gold and his eyes started to turn green. Vegeta stared at him. "This can't be! He has transformed into a Super Saiyan! He doesn't know the legend but I do. That would mean that I would be able to become one too. I am stronger than Kakarot." Around him, everyone was gasping and wondering what happened.
Zarbon challenged Goku and started to aim a number of attacks at him.
He dodged all of them and defeated Zarbon with one blow.
Frieza laughed. "You might think that you are strong but you have to fight me!"
"I'll fight him first!" a voice came from behind and Goku turned around.
It was Vegeta.
Vegeta stepped out into the battlefield as Goku retreated. He then started to fight Frieza.
~*~
Bulma watched Vegeta fall onto the floor and Frieza laughing. She knew that he was no match against him. She ran to him and managed to drag him to the side when Trunks and Bra stepped up.
Vegeta looked at Bulma. "What on earth do you think you are doing? I still have to fight him."
Bulma shook her head. "No. You had enough. Trunks and Bra are going to fight him."
They watched as Trunks and Bra was facing Frieza.
Bra was really angry. "You hurt someone we care about a lot and that's not very nice!"
Trunks turned to Bra and she nodded. "Let's power up!"
The colour of their aura changed and soon their hair turned gold and their power increased with great speed. Both their eyes also changed colour. Vegeta stared at them, his eyes wide in surprise.
"How did those two brats get so strong?"
Bulma looked at him. "They are half Saiyan after all."
Vegeta scowled. "That would make sense. But I still want to know who produced these brats."
Bulma's eyes looked to the floor. ~No, I can't tell him, not yet.~
Trunks, Bra and Goku started to fight Frieza.
With their power together, they were incredibly strong.
Vegeta glanced at them fighting before he fell to the floor unconscious when his energy had started to drain.
~*~
Vegeta woke up and found himself in Bulma's arms.
He looked around and saw Trunks, Bra and Goku doing a kamehameha together.
He saw the beam hit Frieza hard and realised they had defeated Frieza. It caused a huge destruction and everyone shielded themselves with their arms.
Bulma opened her eyes slowly, looked up and smiled. "Wow! Finally!"
She let go of Vegeta and ran to Trunks and Bra. She gave them a hug. "I can't believe it! You guys are so strong!"
Bra nodded happily. "Yeah! But we would have to return to the future soon."
Bulma nodded and sadness took over her. "Do you guys have anymore senzu beans? We really need them right now and Goku has run out of senzu beans."
She pointed to Piccolo, Gohan, Krillen, and Vegeta who were lying on the floor.
Trunks shook his head. "Sorry, we don't have anymore. We only had one with us and gave it to Vegeta when he challenged us."
Bulma nodded. "Don't worry. I guess these guys will just have to heal the old fashioned way."
Goku walked towards them, his hair and eyes had changed back to normal. "Come on. We have to get these guys to hospital."
Bulma nodded and used her capsule.
In about ten minutes, everyone was sitting in Bulma's plane and heading to the hospital. "So what caused your hair and eyes to change?" Bulma asked Goku.
Before Goku could answer, Vegeta cut in. "He has turned into the legendary Super Saiyan," he said softly and then closed his eyes. ~Why has Kakarot turned into one and I haven't. I don't understand. How is this possible?~
