Chapter Two: Arranging a Mate
Prince Vegeta was dressed in his finest Saiyan Armor. The golden crest of the house of Vegeta shone brightly on his armor chest. His cape was a blood red, and his body suit under his armor was a deep navy blue. He walked beside his father as the patted down the hall, in the direction of the center of the palace: the royal courtyard.
They walked in silence, neither saying a word. "You know Vegeta," the King began, "This isn't the end of the world you know."
"But, I don't want a mate, I told you this a million times before, having a mate will only interfere with my training." Vegeta kept his head down. His father had just defeated him not only an hour ago, in front of all the elites, and his ego hadn't recovered yet. "I'm old enough to make my own decisions, and I decided that I don't want a mate."
"Vegeta, you're a child." The King chuckled to him self. "Your not old enough to make decisions for you self."
"Yes, I am!"
"No, you're not." The King looked down at his son. "But if you're old enough to make your own decisions, then you are certainly old enough to take a mate."
"Fuck your reverse psychology." Vegeta spat.
"Don't use that kind of fucking language." His father was getting annoyed now.
"If you can say fuck, then I can say fuck." Vegeta started prancing around, "Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Fuc-"
King Vegeta grabbed his son by the hair and smacked him hard on the mouth. "As I said before, don't use that kind of language."
Vegeta stood there, holding his lip, which was starting to become swollen.
The King opened the large and elaborately decorated door that led to courtyard. "Let's go."
"I'm not going out there like this!" Vegeta pointed to his lower lip.
"Well, if you had stopped using that word like I told you to, then that wouldn't have happened." The sunlight spilled into the hall, "After you." He gestured to let Vegeta go before him.
Vegeta looked at his father, and looked outside at the group of people, and at his father again, then the group of people, then his father.
"What are you waiting for?" The King was losing his patience.
"This is bullshit." And with that, Vegeta walked out side and greeted his people.
~*~*~*~*~
Vegeta followed his father around, before he met his "mate to be's" parents, Dr. and Mrs. Briefs.
"Now listen Vegeta, Dr. Briefs is one of the heads of the science department here on Vejiitasei. His wife is a little ditzy, so be nice, or you'll have more to worry about then your fat lip." The King informed Vegeta before they went up to the couple.
"OH MY!!! He is just SOOOO cute!!!" Mrs. Briefs went up to Vegeta and gave him one of her ditzy hugs.
"Please…" Vegeta pleaded to get the crazy lady off of him. "Let go…"
"Well aren't you just precious!!! You are quite the handsome little boy!" She exclaimed.
"Darling, maybe you should let the boy go…" Dr. Brief stepped in.
"Yes… Please…" Vegeta struggled to get out of her grip.
King Vegeta turned around… He could hardly contain his laughter.
"Oh, well if you insist honey…" She let go of him, and he quickly backed away from her.
Dr. Briefs stepped in and held out his hand. "It's an honor to meet with you my Prince."
Vegeta took his hand and shook it. "An honor as well doctor…"
The King had finally turned around, and shook hands with the doctor as well.
"I do believe that Vegeta here should meet Miss Bulma, don't you think?"
"Oh yes, of course," Dr. Briefs looked around himself, "Well… she ~was~ around here…"
"Oh, dear, she said that she that she was going to look around the courtyard some more seeing how much she loved the floral arrangements." Mrs. Briefs answered.
~*~*~*~*~
The King found Miss Bulma staring at one of the many waterfall like fountains that were scattered across the courtyard. She was in a secluded area where the weeping trees with their long drooping branches came down and the sunlight made the clear water sparkle. Her long aqua blue hair flowed down her shoulders and down her back. Her light blue dress was long and extravagant.
"Bulma, my dear," The King called out to her.
She gazed up, "Uncle!" She walked over to him and gave him a hug, "Oh, uncle, how have you been?"
"Oh, just fine my dear," The King took her hand into his, "Come, everyone is looking for you, and you must meet my son."
They walked through the foliage together. "Oh but Uncle, I don't want to be mated… I'm sure his highness is a wonderful boy an all, but I don't want to be Mated."
"And why is that my dear?" The King inquired.
"Because it would interfere with my career plans as a scientist." She said solemnly, "If I were a Queen, I would be unable to do what I love to do…"
"Now that isn't completely true, Velveeta, my late mate, was queen and did what she wanted to do."
"Yes, but… I don't know…" They spotted her parents and the Prince as well. She changed the subject, "Uncle is that Prince Vegeta?"
"Yes it is…"
"What happened to his lip?"
"I smacked him. Parental discretion, he was misbehaving."
"Oh…" They came up to their group.
"Bulma, dear, where have you been?" Her mother questioned.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I lost track of time…" Bulma looked at the ground.
"Well that's quite all right, my dear." The King said as he turned to Vegeta. "Bulma, dear, I want you to meet my son, Prince Vegeta."
Bulma and Vegeta faced each other for a second… the Vegeta had to make some sort of sarcastic remark.
"What the hell is this father? This wench has BLUE hair!" Vegeta smirked, "What kind of freak are you?"
"Freak? FREAK!?!" Bulma was outraged, "I am not a FREAK! And what about that fat lip of yours? You look like some sort of ugly clown!"
"How DARE you speak to me, The Prince of Saiyan, that way!!!" Vegeta was furious.
"How dare YOU speak to me that that way?!? I have more brain power in my pinky, then you do in that whole big head of yours!" Bulma just stood there, smiling. "My goodness uncle, why is it that Vegeta here doesn't have your incredibly charming looks? I would have to figure that he must taken after your late mate, but from the pictures I've seen, she was beautiful. So why is it that you two made an incredibly unattractive child?"
"UNATTRACTIVE!!!" Vegeta lunged at her, only she dodged his attack.
"Vegeta!" The King picked Vegeta up by the hair. "What the hell is the matter with you?"
"How dare she speak to me that way?" Vegeta spat, "Stupid wench!!!"
The King smacked Vegeta upside the head. "I thought I told you to be nice!"
"Mother, Father, I don't want to be Mated to an abusive person like him. Kami only knows what he would try to do to me!" Bulma walked away from the scene that was being made.
She smiled to herself… maybe if she kept this up, she wouldn't have to Mate with him after all.
