Chapter2
Private Bulma?
She was now fallowing that crocodile like monster around with only her pajamas on with her bare feet on the hard floor. She was lost in her thought.
'What I am going to do now? They have agreed to let me live only to work for them, trying to escape now is more like suicide. I can't count on the Zetto Zenchi to come rescuing me they even now if I am missing, if they know they wouldn't know to come here to get me. How long I am going to survive in that nightmarish place? Don't panic Bulma, I know that you are on your own; you have been there before you can take care of yourself, and you're a big girl now! No need for them. Who I am kidding? Without them I am nothing, that's not true you are brilliant! Believe in your superior mind, hey! They are the one who are lost without you have to go back, first thing first try to stay alive'.
"There we are" Said Kiyu "now try to find something that could fit you those garment you wear is inappropriate for the one who serve the most powerful warrior in the universe"
"Since when did captain Ginyu is the most powerful warrior in the universe, I got friends that could take him out and a heart beat" Said a too confident Bulma.
"Don't be funny it will be a miracle if he is still alive by now" said an absent minded Kiyu
"Don't forget I am in charge of you, hurry up we have work do" Bulma was in shock not believing what she heard. Kiyu was right about Ginyu.
Captain Ginyu was scared he had learned who was the new emperor was. Now he regrets that he had left Chikyuu he would like to be a toad what now. He entered the Headquarter knowing that he could never get out alive.
"Cooler-sama[1], I am here to do my report" he said with fear and respect bowing in front in that man sitting and the floating chair like Freeza's.
Cooler looks like his brother in his last transformation the only differences are that he was much taller and he was wearing the same outfit as Freeza's but his was a very dark purple with white chest plate. There were three other men in the room there was Dorei who is green the same stature as Nappa he was wearing his armor with only a short like his more or less. Neizu (remind me of E.T) was red brown and tall he was wearing something like Krillin was wearing in Namek with the same armor like Dorei, than Sauza he was about Gokou size he was blue with blond hair with a very nice hair cut the cutest guy in the group his jumpsuit was purple also like Cooler but lighter with armor. They armor was different though it only have the left extra shoulder piece of the armor and the insignia of Cooler was in the trunk of it. It looks like an arrow upside down with a round whole in the middle. Dorei, Neizu and Sausa were Cooler's Defense Squad.
Captain Ginyu had started to explain what happen in Namek, and on Chykyuu well what he heard from the others human at least.
"Zakkenayo[2]!" Said Cooler to Ginyu, but this one did get out fast enough at Cooler's taste and got blasted away, there wasn't nothing left of him only a dark ashes. This was the end of the most powerful member of the Ginyu force.
Back in Freeza's Planet a new member had hard time to adjust with her new life "Why those kinds of thing always happen to me" said a very tired Bulma after falling in her bed. She had been reviewing what had been her life in the past week. 'I am now a Cooler's soldier I am dress like on train like one even stinks like one, I got to take a shower, I have to do it quickly though because break time is almost over, and I will have to spend all night working on that new spacecraft'
She had finish by accepting her fate now after she had seen how futile it was to try to escape. The security was too tight and that damn Kiyu is always on her back. They quickly notice her potential she had became a great help for them.
'They will never let me go, I least I now that they not going to kill me any time soon.'
Since the day she came here she was trained to become a soldier, at least they have tried. They soon abandoned that idea they just taught her how fired her gun blaster they gave her. Bulma also learned some other useful tricks. She had made some modification on her scouter her armor made it light and more stronger she even made some change at her weapon she wanted it to fired more powerful blast. She does everything at record time, she got herself ready in a flash no time wasting in a hairstyle a ponytail should do pass on her purple jumpsuit, armor, boots and her fingerless glove, put on her scouter.
'The difference between me and those baka[3] is that I look good on my uniform" Now she was ready to go.
She opens the door to find Kiyu waiting for her; she only sigh and following him in the hangar were the ship is being built. It supposes to me a whole new model with special capability. She took her place behind her computer and start working trying to concentrate on the task at hand when the alarm started blaring.
"What's going on?" she said worried to Kiyu. He was going to answer when order came from her scouter, they looked at each other and they both left their station to go to landing area. The entire army was there waiting, and so was she. The enormous ship landed and is crew get out forming two line on each side of the ship's door they weren't many though Bulma only count six, and than they came out four of them. It was easy for Bulma to know that the one sitting in the floating chair was the leader two men standing next to him and one on the back Bulma thought that the one on the left was a bishounen[4] not that really matter to her now, she though that at a time she will go gaga with heart shape eyes if she had saw him, but now…
Cooler was standing in front of the little army of 50 men (Bulma included) neatly arranged waiting for his order.
"All those pathetic fools, how did my brother put out with them? Those men are only a bunch of weakling; I don't have any need for them" He said to Sausa
"Yes, your majesty, but most of them are needed for construction purposes. The others are just peon here for the form"
"Well let finish up with this charade" Cooler added.
Now talking to the little army he said
"You all know that King Cold and Freeza sama have been missing for quite a while now, I have just learned that they have been killed which makes me your new leader. I intend to avenge their death and I will show no mercy for who are responsible for that. Their entire planet will soon will know my wrath, you have two weeks to finish the new ship and than we will set a course to planet Earth, and I want any life extinguished there for it had seen the death of the two powerful warrior of the universe" Bulma was very pale 'Oh no! Cooler is going to kill everybody on Chikyuu[5], and I am stuck there incapable of doing nothing a lot of people are going to get hurt if only I could warn the Zetto Shenchi, but how?'
Bulma was trying hard to figure out I way to help his friends, when Kiyu snapped her out her thought.
"Hey! Wake up! it isn't time to day dreaming didn't you here what Cooler sama said we only have two weeks to finish this ship so you better get your ass moving"
"I heard" she said annoyed
'I only have two weeks to make it right. Common Bulma think to something you got to help'
Somewhere in space, Vegeta had just wake up to his frequently nightmare, and like always it let him bitter, but this time it seems worried. He had dream that he was on Namek fighting Freeza. It got that kind of nightmare before but this time Bulma was in it and got killed in an attempt to help him. He could still hear her screaming.
'That had been the third time this week, what's wrong with me?' for all answer his stomach started growling. He went to the fridge only to find it empty.
"I have to go find some foods, I will never make back to Chikyuu alive this way, that'll be rich Vegeta had finally reach to the level of super saya-jin only to die of hunger!" He went to the control and begins tipping a new course
"If my calculations are correct I will soon arrive to planet 68 to get some supplies, then back to Earth".
Vegeta lands without problem, and flies off to the nearest station for supplies. Planet 68 was a planet not bigger than our moon. It had been transformed in a big market place were planetary traveler came to get supplies. Vegeta has stop to something that look like a bar and order some food and drinks. Sitting alone on his table Vegeta started to eat three other men on the next table was looking at him.
"I am sure he is one of them" said the one who look like a turtle.
"No way it can't be" said another.
"You want to go and ask him" said the third.
"No way!" said the first.
"What? Are you scared?" Said the third
"Why don't you go?" said the second
"Ok, I will" answered the third, and leave his table to come to sit in front of Vegeta.
"Hello partner" he said in a nervous voice "Long way from home".
Vegeta now put down his spoon and was looking at him.
"What do you want?" He said with a menacing voice.
"Well, my friends and I were wondering if you were one of the Cooler's soldiers and if you could help us join his army." Now Vegeta seems to be interested in what the man was saying.
"One Cooler's soldier, eh. What make you think I am one of them?" he said with a smirk.
"You are wearing a similar armor and since King Cold and Freeza gone…" "Zakkenayo!" said Vegeta by building energy in his hand the man leave has quickly that he can.
'So, the Cold Empire is still standing, and there is still a regent alive. Oh well, I hate to let a work unfinished. It seems that I have to cancel my little travel back to Earth to take care of that'. After he had done getting his supplies Vegeta set a course to Freeza's Planet.
'I think it is time to make a house call' Vegeta started his evil laughter that echoed in the space ship.
Back in Freeza's Planet everyone is getting ready for the long voyage. The ship was ready in 12 days in Cooler was please by the works well done. Now Sausa was going to choose the new crew. Everyone was in their best ready for inspection.
"Only 25 of you will be chosen to be a crew member in Cooler-sama spaceship you will serve under the order of the best bla-bla bla"
Bulma was bored in quite tired she had been working non stop in this stupid ship, and working in her plan to try save her home planet everything was ready she was smiling at herself
'They are in for a big surprise, hi-hi hi, am I a genius or what? I even impress myself sometime' Lost in her thought she didn't see Sausa coming her way, the blue alien stop in front of her and started his scrutiny walking around her which make Bulma very uncomfortable
"This is interesting. Tell me general, since when Freeza had onna in his troop?"
"She's new sir, she was a great help for the construction of the ship, if you want, we can dispose of her quickly" Bulma felt like she was going to pass out.
"No, that wouldn't be necessary, she can stay it will be a crime to destroy such a beautiful creature, well my dear you just made it your are now officially one of the crew of Cooler-sama crew member I am sure we are going to have a lot of fun." He left to choose other soldier.
'Kuso! That wasn't in my plan what I am going to do? And that creep mean by "we are going to have a lot of fun" Why I always get myself in this mess anyway? Now I am really in big trouble! Don't panic Bulma I just have to switch to plan b. What was it again?'
This night a shadow had found it way in the control room in after silently punching a few keys in the keyboard of the mainframe computer, left as silently as it came. Two hours later,
"Oh shit! What have you done this time?"
"Don't look at me it wasn't my fault"
"Let's only whish that anyone had witness this and nobody notice that one of the space pod is missing, how in hell this thing set itself to space anyway"
"Beats me"
The alarmed at started glaring again.
"What is going on?"
"We don't know sir but the sensor indicated that an unknown spacecraft had entered our atmosphere and that it will land in twenty minutes".
"That all men take their position, I want ten men with me, who ever that this it will soon regret coming here"
"Oh mine, they had sent the welcome comity, like in the old time I feel touched" said Vegeta to the eleven men who encircled him."
"Vegeta what are you doing here I thought you were dead!"
"Well, like you can see I am well and kicking, I wish I could say the same to you in five minutes"
"What do you want?"
"I came here to meet the new leader, you don't mind aren't you?
"For a matter of fact I do you don't have any business here, so I have to ask you to leave. If you don't I will be force to order my man to shoot you"
"You wouldn't dare shout a man unarmed do you?" said Vegeta. He showed them his gloved like to prove his point. The scared General order them to kill Vegeta but it was too late, with a powerful blast he wipe them all leaving only the Genera that was white with fear.
"You people never learned. Now general you are going to tell me where to find Cooler"
"I am not telling you anything" said the General in a shaky voice.
"Oh you won't eh too bad. I am sure I will find someone in there who will cooperate. Well that's goodbye than, sayonara[6]" and in one hand Vegeta concentrate a ki blast and throwed it after the running general who disintegrated. Vegeta had killed the remaining men in the base, he was furious that anyone didn't tell him anything.
'I just wanted to talk, but those baka wanted to fight; now maybe I could find what I need for the control tower. What this so that's what Cooler up to I better get back to my ship with luck maybe I will reach them on time' Now he was flying back to his ship, get in and run to the control in types in the new course.
Bulma was feeling edgy since she embarked in the ship. She was sitting at her post at the control station of the ship.
'Please work, please work' she kept repeating to herself over and over.
'I am doomed' she thought. Kiyu was washing her with odd eyes he was disgusted by the fact that Sausa had chosen her to come.
'She doesn't have any skill whatsoever for this mission, she just going to get in the way I am sure of it.'
'What he had to choose that baka Kiyu also now it only makes my plan more difficult to do, I have to shake him off my back and I just know the thing that will do it ehehehhe'
'Kuso! Why me?' She was chosen to make her report to Cooler-sama
"You could explain the situation better than anyone else" the captain had told her. 'Yeah right, like he was going to understand any of the thing that I am going to say. That is if I don't die of fear first. Well I am here' Bulma took a deep breath and punched the button that will allow the door to open. She enters and bowed before Cooler.
'I hate doing this'
'Cooler-sama officer Bulma is here to make the report you requested, Sausa said "Well, what you are waiting for?"
"Hai! Everything is in perfect order Cooler-sama we should reach Chikyuu in three weeks" said Bulma in her most detached voice.
"Good, tell the captain to set those co-ordinates, we are behind schedule, and we have seven planets to conquer before we reached Earth." Said Cooler .Sausa took the disk from Cooler and give it to Bulma.
"Hai" she said and left.
'I can believe that we are going to space pirate planets. How many innocent have to die before they are satisfied.' She wanted to cry but hold her tears. 'I wish you were here Son Gokou'.
Bulma could take it anymore. Now she was running back to the ship not caring about anything. She just been the witness of the genocide of an, entire race. She was just standing there her weapon in her hands but couldn't shoot. She was there washing hopelessly those people being killed. Before she could reach the door she was stopped by Cooler
"Where you going" he said
"I am going to get a new battery for my weapon" she replied in a nervous voice. "Really, you didn't shoot once. What's wrong? No guts" Bulma lower her head and said and a whisper
"I am only an engineer not a fighter I repaired stuff, and things. Please don't make me kill anyone"
Cooler was laughing like that was the funniest thing he ever heard.
"Well I am going to show you how it is done" putting Bulma in front him he bended himself so he could be at the same height as her put his face near her almost touching her left cheek like he was teaching her how to use a gun. With one hand he was holding Bulma face in place so she couldn't turn her head away; the other one was holding armed hand directed it to his target.
"Fire!" he told her
"Do it now, or die!" Bulma closed her eyes; he pushed her finger on the trigger and fired…
On all three planets they stopped by, Cooler did the same things with Bulma. She was now sitting in her quarter silent tears was rolling down her cheeks, at her door three men were looking at her.
'I hate him' her rage was so strong that she felt like her entire soul was burning. She promises herself that she will make him pay for making her killed those people.
'I have to go back to Chikyuu now I got to, once back I will go get the dragon ball and wish them back, yes I will'.
"What's the matter? You should be grateful to be Cooler's pupil." said Neizu. "Yeah, he really likes you, you lucky girl" replied Dorei
"Well, now that you are Cooler's favorite pet you will enjoy all the privilege that come with it, it is a shame that you are not strong enough you could be a member of Cooler's Defense Squad ." added Sausa. Bulma was looking at them with surprise.
'I can't believe it, well I better use that in my advantage Cooler this one mistakes that you'll soon regret' Ha-ha, ha-ha ha.
"Well, it seems that we have finally cheered her up" Said Dorei.
'I thought that those baka will never left. Now it is time to get ready for the final show down. It is time for those goons to know that nobody messes with a pissed of scientist." Ha-ha ha ha-ha a.
Every thing was working just fine when suddenly one of the spaceship's reactors blew up follow by other little explosions in the whole ship.
"Alert, alert code green, code green everyone report to their station immediately." Said the computer and the alarms stared glaring.
"What's going on?"
"I think we have to land the ship sir before it's too late"
"Do you have a position?"
"Yes sir we have located a planet in the vicinity will could land there for repaired"
"Do it!"
"The Captain is required for his report in Cooler-sama quarters"
"I am dead!" said the captain in a low voice.
Bulma was with the others mechanics trying to land the ship safely on that planet. "Send a distress signal to Headquarters"
'We are trying to do that sir, but it seems that the computer wouldn't comply with the order"
"Nani!"
'It seems that everything is going just as I plan'
The ship crash landed on the planet causing all kind of damages in it ways to finally stop five miles away. Inside the ship was a total chaos. People were running, screaming, even fighting. Bulma used it at her advantage to make a run for it. She was looking for a fissure in the ship wall big enough to get through, she found one, looked around to see if anyone was watching, and hopped outside.
Vegeta who was following the ship was surprise when it made it landing
"I pity the live of the one who's in charge of this ship" said Vegeta "But then again that plays in my advantage he chuckled.
"I can wait to get some exercises; some ass whopping was always my favorite". The Capsule Corp. ship landed far away from Cooler's ship behind various mountains making it impossible to anyone to find it. Vegeta got out of it, and fly in the direction of the crash.
In the crashed ship a very unlucky captain was doing his report. Annoyed by his pity excuses Cooler had sent him to the next dimension.
"You are now the new captain find what happen and make a completed diagnosis of the ship situation." He said by pointing at the next in command"
"Hai, cooler-sama" He replied. An half and hour later he was back
"Cooler-sama the ship was sabotaged, we had found devices that were the cause of the explosions and a virus had made it impossible to work with the computer"
"Nani! Who's responsible for that?"
"I don't know sir" that was the wrong answer because the poor lad was sent to the next dimension. Cooler was looking furiously at the other mechanics in the room, who was shaking with fears
"So, did anyone have an answer for my question?"
"I have one sir" said Kiyu.
"Well?"
"Well, we couldn't read the new program the computer was running on because it foreign to us until I remembered seeing that peculiar writing somewhere before" "Continue!"
"Well, it is earthling writing, sir"
"How do you know that?"
"Well because I saw Bulma writing in that similar way in she is a Chikyuu native. "What? Explain yourself"
"I guest she is, because she came with Ginyu, and told us where she was from…" "Dismissed all of you. Sausa bring me that little ingrate."
"Hai!"
"Bulam is no where to be find sir, she must had fled after we landed" "Find her! But I want alive"
The men who were sent outside to check out the planet were also sent to look after the young woman.
Bulma was walking alone looking around.
"It should be near here, ah there it is" she said running toward the round object. Before they had left to Earth Bulma had lunch a space pod to that destination when she learned that she was part of the trip. Her first Idea was to strand them in this planet when she would still one of the pods to go back to Chikyuu with fewer men in Freezer's planet the security would be less strict, but now that she had to come also, she programmed the computer to send the pod here. 'I can't wait to get back home' she thought happily. She sat in it and began to enter the new course in the little pod's computer.
"Program completed" said the computer. She was ready to go when she heard. "Not so fast kono ama[7]!" She froze.
"Get out of there!" Bulma was now looking around her to see him. "Kiyu, what I have to do to get you out of my ass" she said angrily, getting herself out of the pod. When her feet got out on the pod's door, this one closed itself and took-off and raised a lot of dust and smoke during so. Bulma used that distraction and begin shooting at the target her scouter indicated. When the smokes cleared, Bulma find herself face to face with an angry Kiyu.
"Onore[8]!" he snarled taking Bulma's arm and snatched off her weapon. Bad move because Bulma had put fail save in it. Kiyu got himself electrocuted. Only a pile of smoking charcoal was left of him.
"Great! Now I will have to replace the battery in this thing." She picked up her weapon and run-off.
