Ok this is the last installment for this story. Sorry but a new story will be up soon it is going to be about Piccolo and Buruma getting together. I know you must think I'm weird but oh well. Enjoy!
*********Chapter 30**********
The Saiyajin outside the gravity room heard her shriek, "Stupid humans they don't belong here." He chuckled to himself. He dusted off his hands. "One down, three to go. Heh heh." He walked back to his post out side the human's doors. When he got there the other's had already left in the company of Gohan. Too bad, but next time you won't be so lucky… The guard thought. He accompanied the other guards to the banquet hall and took his post out side the entry. Most of the Saiyajin's on the ship were already there. Gohan and Videl were talking with Juuhachi and Kuririn. Vegeta was sitting on his throne with his head on his hand. His advisor came and stood next to him.
"Shall I settle things down, your highness?" Vegeta nodded.
"Fellow Saiyajin's please take your seats!" they took their seats in the order of their ranking. Gohan motioned for the humans to take the spots up at the front near Vegeta. But one spot was empty.
"Gohan!" snapped Vegeta; Gohan went over to him. "Where is Buruma?" Gohan shrugged.
"I don't know, Vegeta. Juuhachi and Kuririn said she left before they did."
"Did she go alone?" Gohan nodded. "When I get my hands on the Saiyajin who led her wrong…gggggrrrrrrrr." Vegeta stood up and scanned the room, he growled. Then Vegeta felt a searing pain go through his whole body. He clutched his head and screamed.
"WHERE IS BURUMA!?!?!?!?" Vegeta ran out of the hall and grabbed a guard; he slammed him against the wall. "Were you assigned to the human's room?" The guard shook his head and pointed over to a guard that was…sleeping! Vegeta tossed the guard, feeling another sear of pain. "Aaarggg!!! You! Where is Buruma!?" Vegeta picked up the Saiyajin and slammed him against the wall, the Saiyajin woke up and whimpered in agony at his now broken body. Vegeta had his hand around the Saiyajin's throat squeezing the life out of him.
"*huff* she…is in…the gravity…room…*huff*" The guard managed to say. Vegeta dropped him and ran towards the hall of gravity chambers. Gohan and the other humans followed Vegeta. The other Saiyajin's in the hall looked at each other with puzzled looks.
"What's wrong with the Prince?"
"Did he kill that guard?"
"Who in the hell is Buruma?" you could hear these whispers through out the hall, until the advisor cleared his throat. All was quiet.
"Calm down friends. Vegeta is attending an emergency. We will continue as planned. Bring out the food!" the advisor clapped his hands and the kitchen Saiyajin's came out with plates heaped with food. Vegeta stumbled down the hall, feeling the pain of Buruma, he looked into each gravity room window and didn't find her until the very last one. Vegeta swung the door open and crawled inside. Gohan managed to get by the door to the control panel. He deactivated the gravity and the other humans piled into the room. Vegeta was on the floor with Buruma's head in his hands. She was barely breathing. Vegeta stared wild-eyed at her, watching her for any more signs of life. Juuhachi and Videl ran over and searched her for any broken bones or wounds. They checked her pulse and found that she was in fact still alive but very badly squeezed. Vegeta was looking into her closed eyes when they flittered open.
"Ve..ge..ta?" Buruma squeaked
"Buruma… you'll be ok. I'm here now. Sssh quiet." He stroked her head.
Everyone was at the door. Kuririn motioned for them to leave. They took one last look at the broken Prince and left for the banquet that was in full swing. Vegeta picked her up. Buruma cried out in pain and dug her nails into his neck. Vegeta clenched his teeth and brought her to the rejuvenating tank in the medical hall of the ship. He placed her in and sat out side waiting for her to heal. The doctor was there, he paced around the controls of the tank working as hard as he could to have her healed fast.
"How long is she going to be in there?" Vegeta asked looking at Buruma's pale face.
"It's hard to say, I'm thinking about a few hours or less." The doctor said feeling pity for the Prince, who had so much sadness in his eyes. "Don't worry, my Prince she will be fine."
"I don't need your pity!" Vegeta said in almost timed reaction. Vegeta forgot all about the banquet as he got lost in the depths of Buruma's floating hair.
Gohan took over the introducing and the ship's crew of Saiyajin's met the humans. Most of them were nice, well as nice as any Saiyajin can be, but some were not too sure about the humans and they would as soon as dump them into space the first chance they got. But seeing Prince Vegeta's reaction about the gravity enchamberment of one of the humans made them rethink their opinions. The Saiyajin that had tried to kill Buruma was not dead, which was really too bad for him, he occupied the other tank next to Buruma's. Vegeta sat there and wondered what he was going to do to him. Slave labor? Torture? Bathroom clean up with his tongue? Buruma smiled in the tank but Vegeta didn't notice. Humm that sounds interesting…maybe… oh I don't know. Maybe I should just try him find him guilty and then eject him into space. There we go and that will teach the others. With the fate of the Saiyajin guard decided Vegeta decided to relax and take a nap. Gohan and the other humans had a great time. Juuhachi and Videl got to know some Saiyajin women whom they will be working with. Kuririn was with Gohan and he introduced him to the other Saiyajin elite that Kuririn will be working with. They enjoyed themselves but every so often their thoughts would drift to Buruma. Juuhachi was asked to bring Vegeta food so she agreed thinking she could see how Buruma was doing too. She was given a basket and was told where to go. When she arrived Vegeta was sleeping, she set the basket down and walked to the tank. She pressed her hand against the glass and was startled to see that Buruma was awake and looking back at her.
"Whoa, hey Buruma you're awake!" Buruma nodded. Vegeta stirred and opened his eyes. "Are you ok?" Buruma nodded again. "I'm glad to hear that."
"Me too." Said Vegeta sitting up.
Juuhachi looked over at Vegeta. "So, um I brought you food." Vegeta looked over at the basket and picked through it for his favorites. Juuhachi sat down on the floor and watched Buruma for a while. Buruma managed to wave and motion with her hand that she was hungry. The doctor came back from eating his dinner and told Vegeta that Buruma was ready to come out. The doctor drained the tank and Vegeta lifted her out.
"Boy am I glad to be alive, I really thought I was dead in that gravity room." Said Buruma.
"I'm glad you're alive." Vegeta said, hugging her and nuzzling her neck. Buruma smiled and hugged him back.
"I'm hungry, didn't I see a basket of food around here?" Vegeta gave her the basket and Buruma plunged in. It was all so good that Buruma and Vegeta ate every last piece. Juuhachi returned to the banquet that was beginning to wind down. She gave the party the good news and that they would get to meet Buruma soon. Vegeta led Buruma to the banquet room and went out first to settle them down. He stood out in front of his throne and demanded quietness with his presence. Pretty soon all was quiet and everyone was sitting down at his or her respective seats.
"Now most of you have heard the news of one of you trying to kill a human that I have brought on this ship. This I will not tolerate, let the fate of the guard teach you that these humans are not to be messed around with. I would now like to introduce Buruma, my prospective mate." Buruma stepped out from behind a curtain; she went over to Vegeta and waved 'hi' to the crowd. The humans hooted and whistled. The Saiyajin's now knew why Vegeta didn't want them to play jokes on the humans because this one was special to him. She was his prospective mate, the male Saiyajin's chuckled to themselves. Why would any proper Saiyajin pick a lowly human girl? Because of this Vegeta lost a lot of respect. With the Saiyajin females they only pouted because now they had no chance of wooing the great Saiyajin Prince. But they had to accept it because Vegeta was their leader and he had friends that were not very merciful. The banquet ended an hour later and the Saiyajin's reported back to their posts or went to sleep. The humans went back to their rooms accompanied by Gohan and Vegeta. Juuhachi and Kuririn went to their room and set up the mini T.V that Videl had brought. Videl and Gohan cuddled for awhile talking about the job that Videl and Juuhachi were assigned to, which was working with the female cleaning crew.
"Awwww come on Gohan…Cleaning? You know I don't like cleaning!" Videl whined.
"I know but it's only until we reach Vegetasei. Then we have you assigned to work with the children of elite guards." Said Gohan.
"Children? Great…How old?"
"Between five and eleven."
"Okay. And what exactly are we going to do with them?"
"Train them in human ways. So that when we go back for an alliance the elite guards, which would be the children, won't humiliate themselves or destroy the planet."
"Right, good idea. I guess. I'll still get to see you right?"
"Of course. I would never leave you. I love you." He nuzzled her neck and kissed her cheek.
"I love you too." They cuddled for a few hours not wanting to leave each other. But soon Gohan had to go to his post outside the control room. Vegeta and Buruma were in Buruma's room. Buruma was looking outside the gigantic window that was in her room and saw her home, Earth.
"Wow it's so beautiful from up here. I never really knew how beautiful from the pictures the astronauts sent back." Sighed Buruma.
"You're beautiful." Said Vegeta. He was sitting on her bed watching her back.
"Really?" Buruma turned around and smiled. "Thank you." She walked over to him, grabbed his hand and dragged him to the window. He put his arm around her waist and his head on hers.
"So I heard that Juuhachi and Videl have work tomorrow, and so does Kuririn?"
"Yeah, Kuririn is being trained to be an elite guard and Juuhachi and Videl are with the cleaning crew."
"Cleaning? Ouch." Said Buruma. "Do I have any work to go to tomorrow?"
Vegeta grunted a 'yes'.
"Where?"
"In the Technology room."
"Where's that?"
"I'll show you tomorrow."
"Okay." They cuddled for awhile until Vegeta heard Gohan leave. Then he kissed Buruma goodbye and left for the Control Room.
~ So what's going to happen with those Gorbans anyway? Will the Saiyajin's try and kill the humans? Who knows you'll just have to tune in next time with Buruma!
