A/N: OK, Chapter 12. Wow...I'm getting along here pretty good...um. Let's see here, not a lot I have to say. Though, my new story The Gift of Magic is out. check that out. it's going to be a long story. This story is going to end at like chapter 15 or near it. i don't want to drag on the storyline. I'm listening to Pocahontas soundtrack, which will inspire me to write some pretty elegant stuff. B/c the music is soothing. Plus I have my period and that sucks! I didn't have to go to church thank goodness, though, my family is there now. Alright here we go!





Tournament for Queen



"Sheryl?!" Bulma asked crazed. Her eyes were wide as saucers as the girl with purple hair and same colored eyes.

"Yes, Bulma. What are you doing here?" Sheryl questioned urgently.

"I should ask you the same thing! Where are we?" Bulma asked as she glanced across the darkened room. She noticed the smell of blood and unwashed bodies.

"This is the harem. Why in the hell are you here?" Sheryl answer with force evident in her voice, though it seemed as though she could not talk very loud for her voice was raspy.

"The tournament ended. Freezia wanted me for some reason and took me here. Vegeta is coming for me." Bulma explained simply. Sheryl perked an eyebrow in confusion though relaxed against the wall she leaned against to keep herself up. She hissed as the cold surface rubbed against an open wound. "Are you alright?!"

"Yes, I'm fine. You and Vegeta? Did you win?" Sheryl questioned. Bulma smiled as much as she could though a look of concern still spread her face.

"Yes. Me and Vegeta are mates, though I don't know who won the competition. I should be Queen, I won the stupid tournament but the King goes around and says that Charlotte is the new Queen. We were all stunned and confused that I didn't know what he was talking about then all I can remember is waking up on this ship. I talked to Vegeta telepathically and he said his father had explained why he acted the way he did and he would tell me when he came to get me." Bulma replied. "I'm sorry I'm complaining."

"No, please continue. I've haven't had any good conversation till I got kidnapped." Sheryl said. Bulma stared at her with tears in her eyes.

"I want him here now. I don't want anything to happen to me or him or you. I just want to go home." Bulma cried. Sheryl sighed loudly.

"Stuff has already happened to me, Bulma. I'm surprised that I've lasted this long, I've been on this ship for 2 months. Each day, we get one loaf of bread, and 3 buckets of water. One loaf of bread to feed everyone in here for an entire day. We are easily taken from here by guards, or officers, or Freezia and raped over and over again for good sport. We're the ones they take out their sexual frustration on. Those girls over there have only been in here about a week or so. I've lasted longer than half the people I knew in here. They either died of sarvation or they were killed by their raper. I do not want you to go through this." Sheryl said as Bulma turned to her with wider eyes and tears flowing more so than ever.

"Oh my Kami, Sheryl...I'm so sorry I wasn't here to help you. I'm sorry that I left you alone when you got kidnapped. Moreso, I'm sorry that I didn't keep up the search for you. They just claimed you were dead. But now I know the errors of my ways." Bulma cried looking down in shame. Sheryl lifted a hand up and forced Bulma to look at her.

"Those were not errors of your ways. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have very well had the strength to live. You're my friend. I want to see you on your rightful place as Queen of Vegetasei." Sheryl spoke and Bulma smiled. The door to the room opened quickly and a tall man with muscles that bulged in every direction walked in. Bulma shield her eyes for the bright light entered the room forcefully. The man grabbed her arm and lifted her up forcefully bringing her to her feet.

"A new one. You seem like you'd be fun." he said seductively. Sheryl saw her friend and wanted nothing to happen to her.

"Take me!" Sheryl screamed attaching the the man's leg. Sheryl looked pretty beat up. He glanced down at her and pushed Bulma away. Bulma fell the the ground in a thud as she saw him pick up Sheryl and slap her across the face.

"Don't ever touch an elite officer! I'll have to teach you a lesson!" he spoke and carried her out of the room.

"SHERYL!!!!" Bulma screamed running to the door right as it closed and locked blocking her exit. She started to cry and bang on the door violently. "BRING HER BACK!" She kept banging as she collapsed to the ground in a heap of tears. *Vegeta...*

**************************** {Saiyan Space Pod, Vegeta and King Vegeta}

*Vegeta...* Vegeta heard Bulma's cry from that far away.

*Woman?! Bulma?*

*Vegeta?*

*Yes, what happened? What'd wrong?*

*Charlotte threw my in this whorehouse and this guy came--*

*Did he touch you?!* Vegeta's voice was a mix of anger, worry, concern, and hatred.

*No, he was going to take me, but Sheryl jumped up and told him to take her instead. I just found her and now she's gone again.*

*Sheryl? The green skinned freak friend of yours? The one that was kidnapped?* Bulma rolled her eyes in a desperate emergency sarcastic way.

*Yes, that Sheryl! She was taken away instead of me. She's gone through hell Vegeta. They serve you a loaf of bread a day along with maybe 3 buckets of nasty water and that's it! They're are bloody half dead girls lying all around me! AHHH! Some are dead!* Bulma's voice screamed in Vegeta's head causing him to wince slightly.

*Woman, stop screaming. You're going to cause me brain damage. Just hold on till I get there. It might take a little longer than I had expected. Though I'll get there as soon as I can alright.* Bulma was crying softly though Vegeta could feel her pain.

*I can't stand this...I wanted to just stay on Vegetasei with you. No problems or anything. I wanted to kick your father's ass for saying that Charlotte won, instead of me!* Vegeta chuckled at how she turned from sad to bloody angry in half a sentence, though he frowned when he remembered that his father had said Charlotte had won.

*Woman, I will contact you later. For now I have to have a talk with my father.* Bulma's eyes dimmed a bit.

*Before you go can you do me a favor?*

*And what might that be?*

*Call me by my name.*

*Why?*

*I just want to hear you say it, in case something happens.*

*Then no. I won't. Nothing is going to happen, and I'm not going to do that because you feel something will. Nothing is going to happen to you, alright. I won't let it.* Bulma smiled as he said that.

*Then I trust you, because I love you.*

*And I you. Bye.*

*Bye.* Bulma ended the link and Vegeta sighed heavily. He turned to his father.

"Why in the hell did you say that Charlotte won the tournament?" Vegeta asked suddenly causing his father to stare at him in wonderment.

"All the more pressure to make you go Super Saiyan, as that was my original plan. In all honesty, Bulma did win, I just said that to press you harder. My plan worked. Though it didn't really have the ending I hoped for." King Vegeta said making Vegeta turn to him in anger.

"So you fucking told Freezia to come here?! You're the cause of all of this?! You did this so I would become a Super Saiyan? What in the hell were you thinking? That I couldn't do it on my own?" Vegeta questioned his ki raising higher and higher as his anger grew more and more.

"It's a boost me up. You needed it. As for Freezia, I was hoping that he would've stayed and fought you, and then you would've beaten him. But I guess that Ivan and Charlotte did not help the situation or my plan." he replied.

"Of course they didn't! Why in the hell was Ivan with you anyway? That no good piece of shit bitch threw Bulma into Freezia's harem. If we don't get there fast, something might happen, then I'll seriously have to kick your ass." Vegeta yelled causing his father to gulp in fear of his own son.

"O-Ok...let's speed up then."
