A/N: Hello again!! Thanx for the reviews! I'm hoping to reach at least 50 (hee hee). It has come to my attention that somone took my idea of Vegeta wishing back Vegeta-sei. To that person, all I have to say is :P (I don't know if it was intentional or not, but I don't care, hope it all goes well!) Anyway, this chapter Bulma meets King Vegeta!!! Happy reading.

Disclaimer: You know the drill! don't own so don't sue!

It had been a longest hour and a half of Bulma's life. She had been bored stiff to death by all the teachings the two Saiya-jins in front of her were trying to convey. *Kami, is war all these Saiya-jins ever think about?* So far she had learnt all about their history, religion and culture. Only the culture seemed somewhat interesting, especially the 'mating' habits of the Saiya-jins. Bulma frowned *Even their relationships have an animalistic name* Stifling a yawn, Bulma slightly glanced at Vegeta who was sitting opposite. She could not deny that although the Saiya-jins were violent and war driven, they also had grace and elegance in their culture. A voice interrupted her thoughts.

"And so that concludes your teachings of the Saiya-jin race, Ms Briefs." With that the two Saiya-jin 'teachers' left, bowing once to Vegeta and once to Bulma. Sighing she sat back in her chair, glad that it was all over.

Vegeta saw the lack of interest in Bulma's eyes from the beginning. He grew angered at her boredom with his race. Only when the cultural part was mentioned did her eyes spark with interest. Other than this, he could tell she was bored out of her mind, and this angered Vegeta even more. "Did you not enjoy the teachings onna?" He practically barked at her.

Bulma raised an eyebrow and stated calmly, "Actually I did Vegeta, all of it apart from the war bit and-" She was interrupted by the sound of knocking on the room door.

Vegeta looked up as he heard knocking, "Enter," he growled, displeased that someone would dare to interrupt the onna speaking to him, something she did not do willingly with him lately. He felt regret at that thought, that she would no longer willingly speak to him.

"My Prince, we have landed on Vegeta-sei. It is time to unboard the craft." The pilot he recognised as Mik bowed.

Vegeta nodded and dismissed him. Standing, he motioned for Bulma to stand as well. She gave him a cold stare and stood, this sent a chill down his spine, *What are you doing to me onna..* "Come, it is time to leave." With this he offered out his arm. Seeing the suspicious look in her eyes he said, "Don't worry, it is custom on Vegeta-sei for me to offer my arm to you, since you are going to be needed for many high ranking purposes. Had you been listening this past hour and a half, you would have realised it." He said scornfully, watching as she frowned, but loop her arm in his slowly without saying a word.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

In ten minutes, they were all off of the ship, her arm linked with Vegeta's. As much as she hated it, she'd rather not anger him anymore. They were greeted by an elite army of Saiya-jin warriors in the front, and to the right and left of her, the 'commoners' as Vegeta had put it. The army in front of them did a full marching pattern as a red carpet was rolled out in front of her and Vegeta. Bulma looked around at the planet in awe *And I thought earth was beautiful..* Bulma was pained at the memory of earth but it was overcome by the awe inspiring landscape presented to her. The sky was tinged a slight pinkish, with candyfloss clouds. The grass beneath was a silvery white. She had learned that this planet didn't have any seas as earth did, but in fact only contained rivers with some silvery and some metallic blue water flowing through them, hence only the one reigning monarchy. She took a sharp intake of breath as she absorbed her surroundings.

Vegeta had been watching Bulma's every action since they stepped foot on the planet ten minutes ago. He smirked proudly as he saw the look of surprise in her features, *That's right onna, this is my planet you see before you.* They were welcomed with loud roars and cheers from the Saiya- jin commoners and warriors. Vegeta stood proudly at the cheers he was recieving. Because of him, his lost race had been regained, and his father.. Vegeta was waiting intently for his father to welcome them, it had been a long time since they were last in eachother's presence *Too long..* Just then he saw a large figure walk out of the palace gates. *It was a good thing they landed the ship in front of the palace* He tensed slightly waiting for the figure to arrive towards him and his guest.

Bulma felt Vegeta tense, she looked up to his face to see that he was watching the figure approaching them. The figure was tall and prominant, and looked like the outline of Vegeta himself. Just then the figure stopped in front of Bulma and Vegeta. She could now see his face and was shocked *He looks exactly like Vegeta! Well except for the goatee.. That must be his father...(No duh Bulma! I can be such a ditz!)* She continued watching, surprised as they both only acknowledged each other, taking this chance, she slipped her arm out of Vegeta's quickly.

Vegeta stared at his father as he stood before him. He was happy to see his father, even though he did not show it on the outside. As he and his father stared at one another, Vegeta felt Bulma's arm fall from around his it felt so comfortable and right, blocking out the dissapointment, Vegeta got down on one knee and bowed to his father. "Father, I have restored the Saiya-jin race, as I hoped it would be. My oath is now fulfilled." Bowing his head, he remained kneeling on the ground. Bulma frowned, *He made an oath?*

King Vegeta looked proudly at his son. On approaching he noticed the female that stood next to his son. She was truly beautiful, but he could tell there was something more to her than that. He gave her an amused look as Vegeta bowed down in respect. Looking back to his son, he took the medallion from his neck and placed it over Vegeta's. "You have made me proud, Vegeta. You may rise, for in three months time you will be the new King of Vegeta-sei!" His voice bellowed out through the now almost silent crowd, which again cheered at the news just recieved.

Vegeta stood up looking his father square in the eye and placed his fist over his heart as a sign of respect. "Thank you, father."

King Vegeta did the same action as his son. He turned to Bulma and raised his eyebrow in a playful manner, "Who is this pretty lady you bring with you Vegeta? A guest I suppose? Is this little onna as dumb as she is beautiful?" He smirked as he saw a flash of anger fly through the girl's eyes.

Before Vegeta got a chance to speak, Bulma was way ahead of him, "I'm not a guest, I was forced to come here, and I hate you all for it! And my name is Bulma. Not woman, or onna or any other you deem worthy, but BULMA. And how dare you even think of me as dumb. I'm am more intelligent than the whole Saiya-jin race put together!" She folded her arms huffing and pouting.

Vegeta let a look of horror flash across his face before his face darkened, growling, "Shut up onna, you will show respect to MY father. GOT IT? Now bow." He gritted his teeth *Does the onna have a death wish? What the hell does she think she's doing?* His father never tolerated insolence from anyone and Vegeta was sure she was about to be fried to a crisp.

Instead, King Vegeta merely chuckled. "You have spirit. I can see why my son chose you as a..guest. Well, I will not force you to bow, like my son here is trying to make you do. Welcome to Vegeta-sei Bulma." With that the King bowed at Bulma. He was in a mischieveious mood today, for many reasons, and he enjoyed making people confused by his actions. Especially his son, *He was always was easy to string along* The King grinned inwardly.

Bulma could not believe that this King was Vegeta's father. *He's so friendly! Are they sure they're related?* Bulma actually smiled happily since this whole ordeal had begun and did a complete one-eighty. "Thank you King Vegeta. I cannot believe that you and Vegeta no ouji are related." She joked slightly, noticing the spark in the King's eyes. With this she bowed her head respectfully and added, "You have my cooperation King Vegeta. This is truly a beautiful planet. It is sad to think that this was once not here at all." Bulma side glanced at Vegeta who was now staring at her with cold eyes, she grinned inwardly, *See how you like being the only one I don't show respect to hehe*

King Vegeta was impressed by the ningen's sudden courteous manner. But he always believed if you treated people with the respect they deserve, then you shall get respect back tenfold. "Yes I believe it is so Bulma. That is all in the past now, and I am happy to be looking towards the future. Let's just say that life in Hell has changed my outlook considerably." With that he offered his arm out to Bulma, who took it graciously with a nod, "Come now, we shall return to the palace and continue our conversation in a more private domain." With this King Vegeta and Bulma walked down the red carpet together towards the palace, leaving an extremely pissed looking prince behind.

Vegeta stood and watched on the sidelines as a conversation developed between his father and the onna. He was secretly amazed that his father hadn't killed the onna for her disrespectfulness, but once the King had replied calmly to the onna, she was now answering him back with the utmost respect. *That onna is strange. She shows my father respect and yet she shows me NONE. She makes me so furious sometimes.* He felt his brow crease as he saw her smile. *Something she has not done in a while..* He grew even more angrier as he watched them both walk down the red carpet without him. Growling he follwed behind into the palace gates with as much dignity as he could muster up from being ignored. *You better watch how you behave with me little onna, or I'll have to make you mine forever..*
