Chapter 16

"A small leak will sink a great ship"

Serena

I woke up feeling a bit dizzy, but grinned remembering what happened last night. It was a magical night which is better 100 times than any night I've spend with Darien. I read in the books how you are suppose to feel different and something like more of a woman but... I don't feel any different. I'm a bit sore in between my legs and a little bruised up. I look over at Vegeta who sleeps next to me without a sound at all. Anyone else might think he is dead for he is still as a rock, but I knew better. I lend over to kiss him but was interrupted by the door bell- OH NO! Did my parents come home already?
I panicked and never got dress so fast in my life (Luna would have been proud) and ran down the stairs. How am I suppose to hide Vegeta?
I peeked through the door hole to see who it is, and screamed. Rei screamed too. It turned out we were both looking through the hole at the same time, never have she looked so scary with her big eyes blinking at me. "What do you want?" I said crossly as I opened the door.
She glares back at me. "To check up on you and to be your parents while they are away-"
"I don't need a baby sitter!" I cried. Who does she think she is!
"Shut up and deal with it" she walks in the house without my permission. "Luna will be here soon too. So where should I sleep?"
"In the dog house" I said lamely. I don't want her in my house! That means Vegeta and I won't have a moment alone anymore! Thinking of that made me blush.
"Ha ha very funny" she said sarcastically. "You don't even have a dog"
"Oh I guess that means there is no place for you!" I push her towards the opened door. "Thanks for checking up on me Rei! Have a nice day-"
"Serena!" she screamed right in my ears. Ouch. "Be serious! You know you can't stay in a house with a man alone!"
"Fine" I said dully giving up. "You can stay in the room closest to a dog house, Sammy's room"
"Fine" she picks up her bag of clothes. "Where should I put these?"
I grinned at her. "In the trashcan"
She glared at me one last time and went up stairs.

I was making 100 pancakes when I heard Rei scream. She race down the stairs (too bad she didn't trip and broke her neck... haha) screaming: "SERENA! Why the hell is he in your bedroom?!"
I picked up the tray of burned pancakes that I messed up on and smiled sweetly. "Hungry Rei? These are made just for you"
She glares back at me. "Very funny, Serena-"
"Usagi, why the hell is this brat here?" Vegeta floats above Rei and she screamed and hid behind me. I tried not to giggle.
"Rei is here to baby-sit us" I replied. Rei looks at me, back at him than back at me.
"You have been staying with him?!" she made Vegeta sound like some kind of criminal. "Alone?! Oh my gosh! What would Darien say-"
It took all my might not to slap her. "Rei" I said firmly looking at her straight in the eye. "Darien and I are over. You hear? O-V-E-A-R! Over!"
"If this brat is staying here than I'm going back to my ship" Vegeta floated towards the door. He nodded at me, I know that means he will see me later.

Vegeta

The woman is crying. "Vegeta! Please! Come back!" she plead. My son cries in her arm.
She reaches for me. I do not have a body. Except for the light above the woman, everywhere it is black.
"Vegeta!" Bulma screams. Dead bodies came falling down and the woman did her best to avoid being crashed. Kakarott's body, Piccolo's, Krillin and everyone. All dead. My son was ripped from Bulma's arms and thrown on the floor with a loud thump. He dies too. Bulma gasp as two slender female hands with long black nails wrap themselves around her neck and turned it around twice.

I woke up screaming with her. Bulma's scream still echoes in my mind. What does the dream mean? Is she in danger?
I knew then that I must return back to see how she is. Usagi will understand. I pressed the buttons the boy told me to and nothing happened. I did my best to keep myself from blasting this worthless trash in front of me.
I got out of the ship with Bulma in my mind. Suddenly, I came face to face with that woman. My yell became one with her scream.

Bulma

"Woman! What the hell are you doing here? How did you get here? And why are you here?" Vegeta shouts at me. Oh damn that man. He's been gone almost a month and doesn't even bother to say even a quick hello before he goes and yells at me.
"It's none of your business why I'm here! And what do you think you are doing here in the first place?" I shouted back at him.
He stares at me for the longest time without any expression. I looked away and blushed.
"Tell me woman" he said in a much kinder tone. "Tell me the truth. Have you had any weird dreams lately?"
Of course. I dream you'll come back to me and say you love me back and we can be a real family. But I did not say them out loud.
"Well I think I dreamed you actually had a brain one time but that's about it" I said lamely. He glares at me.
"How long you planning to stay?" he said rudely. I know you wants to get rid of me and I'm stupid enough to believe I can convince him to come home. I swallowed feeling nervous. "Please come home Vegeta"
He looks at the sky with such a hard face. "I have no home" he said dully. "It was destroyed. How did you get here woman? I see no ship with you"
"Well" I said trying my best to cover my hurt feelings. "I built a poorly made ship for Piccolo to come after you but I see he did not make it yet. I was at ChiChi's when a beautiful woman came to me and said she can help me locate you"
"Damn that Setsuna" Vegeta swore under his breath.
"Is that her name?" I ask.
"Don't ask stupid questions woman" Vegeta cocks an eyebrow. "How long are you planning to stay?"
"I don't know" I admit. "I don't even now how to get back"
"Damn" he swore again. "Come with me. I'll take you to my friend's house. You can stay with her till I find a way to take you back. Her name is Usagi"
