A/N: PLEASE PLEASE FORGIVE ME FOR MAKING YOU WAIT SO LONG FOR THIS CHAPTER.
It's just that I've had a complete shutdown for the continuation. I think
it's a sign that I should wrap this story up soon.
Anyway, I just want to thank everyone for sticking with this story and I'm so happy a lot of you like!

{Vegeta-sei}
Bulma blinked a few times and sat up slowly, trying to find her bearings. "Who are you and who is Bulma? Where am I?" She asked fearfully, tears brimming in her eyes.
Chi Chi looked at Kinjal in horror, "What have you done!?"
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Chi Chi tried to say something more but the words were stuck in her throat. She turned back to Bulma, her face grief stricken.
Kinjal slumped down defeatedly into the nearest chair. Her heart was pounding and never had she felt worse in all her life.
Bulma stifled a laugh as she saw her friends' grief stricken faces. She couldn't comprehend that they actually believed her joke. She had to give herself props, she was a great actress. She could imagine Vegeta's face if she did that to him, she burst out laughing.
Kinjal and Chi Chi looked at Bulma, perplexed.
Chi Chi frowned, "Why are you laughing?" She croaked, her throat still constricted and dry.
Bulma quickly sobered up, "Because Chi Chi, you two are the most gullible people in the entire universe!"
Chi Chi huffed, "I am not gullible!" Her eyes widened, "How did you know who I was?"
Bulma looked at her in exasperation and began laughing again. "It was a joke Chi!" She relaxed back against the large head board of the bed.
Chi Chi was still serious, "That wasn't funny Bulma." She scolded
Kinjal broke into a smile and rushed over to Bulma giving her a big hug. "You're ok!!"
Bulma smiled, "Of course I am. Thank you for what you did K, you truly are a great friend." She hugged the blue female back. Bulma stifled a yawn.
Chi Chi began fussing over her, plumping her pillows and checking her temperature. "How do you feel?"
Bulma sighed at her friend's concern, "I feel fine, just tired mostly."
Kinjal interjected, "Who wouldn't! That was some labor!"
Bulma tilted her head, "Speaking of which, where is my little devil?" Not being pregnant felt weird, but she felt a motherly attachment already to her child, even though they hadn't yet met.
Chi Chi shook her finger, "Oh no you don't missy! You're going to get some sleep. You are still too worn out to care for a little baby. Get a few hours sleep and I'll wake you in the morning ok?"
Bulma didn't have the energy to argue, she knew Chi Chi was right. Lying back down, she thanked them once again, "Thank you for being here for me. I couldn't have asked for better friends."
They all smiled at each other. Kinjal and Chi Chi started making their way out of the room and Bulma began to doze off, for a much needed sleep.
********************
Chi Chi and Kinjal stepped out of the room, only to find themselves greeted with a barrage of questions from Mrs. Briefs, her husband, Dr. Vegar and Vegeta's father.
Chi Chi softly closed the door behind her and put her index finger to her lips, motioning them to be quiet.
They all hushed at the sight of Chi Chi's seriousness.
Kinjal looked equally uncomfortable at the way she and Chi Chi were pounced on.
The four elders stood and waited impatiently. Dr. Briefs couldn't take it any any longer, "Well?" He asked impatiently.
Chi Chi cleared her throat, "Well.." She trailed off and broke into a huge smile, "It worked, Bulma is now completely healed. All she needs is a little rest."
Dr. Vegar stood completely shocked, "But that's impossible!"
Everyone ignored him and they all breathed a sigh of relief. Mrs. Briefs rocked chibi Trunks in her arms. "Do you know when she'll wake up?"
Chi Chi thought for a moment, "Well, when she first woke up she didn't know where she was, let alone who she was."
Mrs. Briefs gasped and Dr. Briefs' eyes widened.
King Regent choked on his yawn. "What?" He barked.
Chi Chi shook her head smiling, "Don't worry, she decided to gain a sense of humour at the worst possible moment, she was only joking although I didn't find it very funny. She's sleeping right now, but I think we should wake her up in the morning, after a proper rest. She still has to meet Trunks-chan." She looked at chibi Trunks and smiled dearly at the small boy.
Dr. Briefs nodded and looked at his watch, "That's an excellent idea, Chi Chi. I think we should all get some rest. It is rather late, what do you say dear?" He sad, turning to his wife who was still cooing at chibi Trunks.
Mrs. Briefs looked up and smiled daintily at her husband, "Yes, I think our grandson needs some rest as well." She giggled and smiled adoringly at the baby in her arms.
The former King's eye began to twitch, "When Bulma is awake, she had better denounce that stupid name! No heir of my sons' is going to be called Trunks!" He said the name slowly, trying not to gag on it. Without waiting for an answer, he stormed away to his own personal wing in the palace.
He was still uncomfortable about the display of emotions Dr. Briefs and his mate were showing. As he walked quickly down the large hallway, disappearing from sight, he couldn't help but acknowledge his heart aching slightly for his mate. He growled at his nostalgia.
Dr. Vegar stood uncomfortably, "Well, I shall check up on her in the morning." With that he made a quick getaway.
Dr. Briefs stifled a yawn and turned back to his wife, "Come on dear, let's get back to our room. This has been a long day." He turned to Chi Chi and Kinjal, "Good night you two. And thank you Kinjal, for everything."
Kinjal smiled warmly at the old man, "It was no trouble at all sir."
Dr. Briefs chuckled and took his wife by the elbow, escorting her and chibi Trunks to their room.
Chi Chi nodded, "Goodnight." She said to the husband and wife who were now departing. As soon as they were out of sight she turned to Kinjal, "Thank you so much Kinjal" Smiling, the two embraced. "I'll see you in the morning ok?"
Kinjal sighed as she watched Chi Chi go back to her own room. Silently, she turned and reentered Bulma's room knowing that one could never be too careful.
If Bulma needed anything during the night, then Kinjal would be there for her. She was just glad that the entire ordeal was over.

{Earth}
Krillin stared grimly at the empty bowls of food splayed out on the table. He couldn't believe that Goku and Gohan had such big appetites. He sighed and leaned back in the chair, he had lost track of all time.
Krillin yawned, "When are those two gonna be out?" He asked Dende glumly.
Dende contemplated this thought for a moment and looked at the large clock on the lookout. "According to the clock they should have been out fifteen minute ago!" He frowned and looked worriedly at Mr. Popo.
Goku stood up, belching to new heights. "Errp, sorry. Why don't we go see what's keeping them so long?"
Gohan nodded enthusiastically, "Yeah!!"
Krillin, Dende and Mr. Popo looked at Goku slightly disgusted at the enormous burp that Goku had emitted. It was a wonder Chi Chi ever let him out of the house!
Dende motioned everyone to follow him. All were in tow, eagerly awaiting the two warriors' arrival.
Outside the door of the chamber, the group were greeted by Piccolo who was waiting impatiently. As he caught sight of Dende, he spoke out his concern, "Dende, what's going on? They should have been out fifteen minutes ago!"
Dende shook his head, unsure of what to say in answer. "I don't know Piccolo."
They all looked at the door in silent wonder.
Mr. Popo frowned slightly, a feeling of unease settling over him. "Let's wait here and see if they come out."
Everyone nodded in agreement and so there they say, waiting to see if the two anticipated warriors would arrive.
*******************
Trunks panted at the full force of the blast. He frowned as he looked at the large clock in the endless space of white. Just as Vegeta was about to punch him in the gut, Trunks drew and breath and shouted with the energy he had left, "OTOUSAN!"
Vegeta's fist stopped a few millimeters from Trunks' gut, with a perplexed expression on his face. He frowned angrily, "What is it boy? This better not be a trick."
Trunks frowned, "Look at the clock."
Vegeta turned and snorted, "So? What of it."
Trunks rolled his eyes, "It says that were were meant to be out of the chamber three days ago!"
"And what do you expect me to do about it?"
"Otousan, we have to get out of here. Remember what Dende said about spending too long in the chamber?"
"That green idiot has no idea what he's talking about."
"Then I wonder why he's the guardian of the Earth," Trunks muttered sarcastically.
Vegeta narrowed his eyes, "I will not tolerate insubordination, understood brat?"
Trunks nodded quickly, "Sorry, so what do you say? Shall we get out of here?"
Vegeta sneered, "Very well, the sooner I get out of here, the sooner I will be able to beat that worthless green bug and get back to MY planet!" He began walking to the entrance of the chamber.
Trunks was a little hurt by this, but hid it. Just as Vegeta was about to open the door, a hand on his shoulder stopped him. He growled, "Now what?"
Trunks tried to swallow unsuccessfully, "Can I ask you a favour."
"What?" Vegeta asked impatiently, already eager to fight Cell.
"If I don't make it through the fight.. Could you please return to my time with my body?"
Vegeta was stunned into silence. "How the hell would I get to your time." He finally said.
Trunks handed his father a capsule. "The time machine is in there. The coordinates are set to my time and house." His voice grew shaky, "Mom will be worried otherwise. Could you tell her that-that I love her and I'm sorry that I wasn't strong enough to survive. She would be really happy to see you," he added quietly.
Vegeta almost crushed the capsule in his hand, this could not be his son! He was just too pessimistic, "Nothing is going to happen to you brat. I intend on fighting Cell alone."
Trunks shrugged, "Just in case.." He trailed off when he saw the angry expression on Vegeta's face.
"Your lack of faith in your own ability is very un-Saiya-jin. You have grown stronger brat and don't forget that you carry Royal blood in your veins. Nothing, not even a giant bug can defeat a Saiya-jin."
Trunks smiled warmly, this was the first time Vegeta had said anything remotely praising to him.
Vegeta wanted to gag on the words he was forcing himself to say, "Enough talk." He growled and yanked the door open, stepping back out into the normal time dimension.
********************
The doors to the hyperbolic time chamber finally hissed open.
Goku peered in expectantly, his eyes widened at the immense power he felt radiating from the two warriors that were now exiting.
Krillin gaped as he sensed the two ki's power. Since coming out of the chamber, their power had more than quadrupled. They were at least fifteen times stronger than they were two days ago.
Piccolo's jaw twitched, he knew Saiya-jins were powerful but this was ridiculous. The sheer power emanating from the warriors was incredible.
Gohan was shocked, he never thought that two people could become so strong, even if they had two years to train for it. He looked up in wonder into Trunks's eyes.
Dende and Mr. Popo stared solemnly at the exiting warriors.
Trunks and Vegeta had now joined the Z senshi and they were all standing silently in a circle. Trunks stood smiling down at the young Gohan, proud to see admiration in the young boys eyes.
In his time, Trunks had always been the one to look up to Gohan. After all Gohan was supposed to be ten years older than him. He could not believe that this young boy was his sensei and a fierce warrior in his time, that is until the Androids took away his life.
Trunks felt an unexplainable rage fill his entire being. He couldn't wait to get back to his own time and teach those two pieces of scrap metal for taking the life of his sensei... And father.
Vegeta stood slightly detached from the group, his arms folded and scowling. He had bulked up considerably in the two years of training time, more than he could imagine. He held back a smirk, knowing that his power had now increased further than Goku's.
Vegeta's thoughts began to wander again, this time to a more pleasing aspect. His mate. He tried to sense for Bulma's presence but found that he couldn't get any connection. Slight panic began to set in. What if she hadn't made it through the pregnancy?
Vegeta silently cursed Bulma for being a weak human. He made a mental note to himself that after this entire ordeal was over, he would have to gather the Dragonballs and wish for Bulma to become part Saiya-jin, or even full Saiya-jin.
He was beginning to get tired of protecting her all the time, she needed to learn to protect herself. After all, he wouldn't always be by her side to save her skin every time she got into trouble, like this precise moment. If she became Saiya-jin then her basic knowledge of fighting would be enough for her to protect herself and not hurt herself.
Vegeta was clearly amused at the thought of Bulma becoming a Saiya-jin. He wondered how she would react to it. He was brought back to the conversation as he heard Dende's voice ring out.
Dende was the first to speak, "Why did it take you an extra fifteen minutes to exit the chamber?" He addressed Trunks.
Trunks raised his eyebrow, he looked more like a man than a teen. Two years in the chamber would do that to you, "I think we just lost track of time."
Vegeta snorted and looked away, itching to find Cell and pummel him into the ground.
Krillin chuckled, "Hey Trunks, what I want to know is how did you cope with being stuck all alone in a room for two years, with Vegeta!" He exclaimed, finding his own joke very funny.
Everyone save Piccolo and Vegeta laughed.
Vegeta glared daggers at Krillin, "Listen chrome dome, you're already on my bad side. If you wish to keep that odd shaped head of yours then I suggest you shut up!"
Krillin gulped.
Vegeta continued to threaten him, "Don't think that just because I've been in that damned chamber for two years, that I've forgotten about our little confrontation."
Vegeta was in the mood for a good fight. He figured that using Krillin as target practise would do him no harm. He smirked cruelly as he saw Krillin pale considerably.
Trunks smiled knowingly, "Actually, it wasn't that bad-" He stopped talking when Vegeta sent him an evil look. ""What I mean is that, we mostly kept to ourselves." He recovered quickly before Vegeta decided to use him as a punching bag.
Vegeta grew restless with the mindless chatter. "Enough of this talk. I shall go to Cell and defeat him myself, if you idiots want to sit around and talk then be my guest." He began to walk to the edge of the look out.
Goku rushed up behind Vegeta and placed his hand on Vegeta's shoulder. "Vegeta, Cell said that he would come to us. There's no point in seeking him out."
Vegeta snarled angrily, "Get your third-class hand off of me Kakkarot!"
Goku set his jaw firmly, "No. I'm not letting you go."
Vegeta narrowed his eyes, wanting to draw back his fist and punch the living day light's out of Goku's innocent face.

A/N: So sorry for the delay once again and for the shortness of the chapter. The story should be finished around 50/55 chapters. Please review and let me know what you guys thought of that chapter. Thanks.
NEXT CHAPTER: Bulma is finally introduced to her baby! (lol) And find out Vegeta's reaction to Goku's idiocy. Next chapter will be up much sooner and hopefully it will be longer!
Anyway, I just want to thank everyone for sticking with this story and I'm so happy a lot of you like!
