Bulma hummed softly to herself as she walked the way home hoping to find her father snuggled up in bed resting, instead she came home to an empty house.

If"Kami! that man is not thick headed!" She sighed to herself, and began making their dinner.

**************************************

Bulma's father quivered beneath the monstrotity(SP?) that roared against the wind. His voice lost to the searing pain of losing his love once more.

"Answer me old man before I kill you,"the beast growled at him his angry black eyes pinning the old man to the ground.

His voice came out shaky when he spoke"My n-name i-is Dr.. Briefs. I-I was L-looking for a rilute of tenaxiant, to -to help me in my inve-"

"Silence!" the beast roared grabbing his frail body instantly knocking him out. The soft fallen snow crunched beneath his feet as he neared his castle. He hated this month hated everything remotely close to winter. That damn wretched woman and her curse.

He was running out of time the rose was already in the first stages of full blowm which meant he had less then a year to find a woman who could break the spell. But how the hell was he supposed to do that? No woman could ever love something like him, much less kiss.

The whole damn thing vexed the hell out of him to no end. Reaching the basement of his castle he threw the mans body into the dungeon and left, locking the door behind him.

"Do you think he's alive mama?" the small candle stick asked his mother.

"Now Gohan what kind of question is that? of course he's alive, the master cant kill or he'll be permanently in this form."She moved closer the hem of her pretty dolled clothes brushing against the floor.

"Chichi, come on the master will be expecting his dinner and you are the leader,"

Bulma's father looked on with amazement they talked! But that wasn't possible they weren't alive.

A loud roar echoed through the castle as the door was flung open and the beast stormed down the stairs. His eyes landed on the old man and his face seemed to distort into a cruel grin. "You are free to go."

Dr. Briefs was puzzled just sometime ago he had been ready to kill him and now he was letting him go? why? He slowly rose to his feet and walked towards the bars of the small prison"I'm free?" He asked.

The beast nodded,"on one condition. You have to send some one back in your place. It cant be just anyone. If I'm supposed to spare your measly life the exchange has to be good. A loved one."

"But the only person I have left is my daughter Bulma and I cant give her to you. I'd die without her."The old man tried to plead to the beat but he just shook his head.

"You will die here then?" Vegetas mind had been pulled into this deeply intertwined knot that could just get him out of this. He had searched his books for a Dr.. Briefs coming up with his picture of him his wife and a young daughter. He and his wife had worked for the old king, and now his wife was dead and his daughter should be around his age. It was perfect. He'd get the old man to send him his daughter he'd try his damnedest to win her heart and kiss her and that would be that.

"No! please anything but her,"

Vegeta growled menacingly hoping to scare him in to giving in"Choose now!"

Dr. Briefs thought for a moment before answering.He could send Bulma there then rally Yamcha to come rescue her and all will be well, of course that was the perfect idea.Slowly he nodded his head and the beast let him go, threatening him if he did not return.

He stumbled into there house bulma waking from her sleep and immediately coming to his side.

"Where have you been I've been worried sick about you, you could have died out there in that weather," she stopped for a minute to examine him," What's wrong you look like you've seen a ghost!"

Tears filled the old mans eyes as he hugged his daughter tightly," I'm sorry Bulma, but I made a deal with this monstrous beast that lives in the forest that you would come in my place..."

Bulma stood there dumb founded how could he do something like that, he must have a good reason" why would you make such a deal?"

"I was in the forest searching for something and I was captured by a beast, he put me in a cell and said he'd let me go free if I send someone in my place... but don't worry you wont be there for long I'm going to send Yamcha to save you and all will be well."

He was her father, always finding solutions to problems before hand.She couldn't blame him now for promising not when his life was in danger. She loved him too much to stand aside as he was killed when she knew she could of done something about it.

With slow defeat Bulma hugged her father, tears in her eyes as she kissed him goodbye, the whole farewell a blur of tears and sadness. Before she knew it the tears were frozen to her rosy cheeks as she trudged through the snow. the weather hardly the type to fly in lest she kill herself. The wind picked up force dashing her light body into the snow dumping a never ending supplyof it on her, a powerful swift gust of wind slammed her against a tree taking her into darkness.

Vegeta had climbed through the snow, dug her out , and carry her limp body into his castle setting her in a bed beside the fire place. At first sight of her blue lips and still rosy cheeks he marveled at her beauty.Impressed by the delicate softness of her body. Now he paced at the foot of his bed wondering if he had made the right decision.

O.K. so what do you think? good? bad? ugly? Review please thank you! I know this is shorter then my first chapter but its 12:27 in the morning and I need my beauty sleep.Not that I really need it ; )
