Chapter 2: Girl Talk

Bulma awoke to the sound of birds chirping softly outside her window, and the suns golden rays hitting her face through the trees. She turned to the side and saw that Bra had already gotten up and started her day. Bulma sighed and with a stretch of her arms she got up, washed and clothed herself, in a normal blue dress with white loose sleeves, and a white apron to match. As she brushed her hair in front of her mirror she could smell breakfast being started downstairs. She could smell hot biscuits, eggs, bacon and hash and pancakes. Bulma inhaled the sweet aroma once again before licking her lips in anticipation of indulging in the fabulous meal waiting for her. For last night her and Bra decided that Bra would make breakfast, Bulma would make lunch and the both of them would make dinner. Bulma pulled her hair back into a loose ponytail and she then raced downstairs as she saw Bra putting everything on the table.

"Good morning." Bra said as she placed the bowl of biscuits on the table.

"Good morning, everything smells great…where's Uncle Ben?" Bulma asked as she took the silverware and placed it on everyone's napkin.

"He's outside washing up, so after breakfast what are you're plans for the day?" Bra asked.

Bulma shrugged and then smirked, "I might go to the tavern and be the cook and waitress. Uncle Ben said they needed someone since the last girl left cause she got married."

Bra smiled, "Well that's good. I'm going to go over an introduce myself to Ox's daughters and get to know the place a little better."

"Sounds like fun." Bulma said as she sat down at her seat.

Suddenly Uncle Ben walked in and then the three of them began eating breakfast.

Pan had just finished putting out the last batch of food on the table and then her, ChiChi and Ox started eating.

"So father who are the two new girls living with Mr. Briefs?" Pan asked.

"Oh those are his nieces. They are about your ages, if they come by or if you run into them anywhere try and show them around, befriend them, they are nice girls."

ChiChi nodded, "Sure father. Besides I think they need to know about this town and how it works and how the men can be a little intimidating."

Pan nodded, "Yea, plus they are both real pretty, I'm sure they will be attracting attention from the guys. In a way I'm glad about that, cause then less people will be hounding me."

Ox frowned, "It is a shame that women are so scarce around here, also the pressures to get this land settled are so high…a girl can find herself intimidated in a place like this."

Pan then glanced over at her father and with a bit of hesitation she spoke, "Father? I heard Vegeta came into town yesterday, rumor is he was looking for a wife and will return again today to find one."

Ox looked up at Pan with a surprised look, "Who told you that?"

ChiChi chuckled, "Everyone knows father, seems he told a few people about his intentions, not just yourself."

"Is that so?"

"Yes father. Many girls were quite smitten with him I must say. Though he didn't give any of them a second glance." ChiChi replied while taking a forkful of eggs.

Ox merely sighed and shook his head, "Vegeta I've come to learn is a very choosy man, yet he always knows exactly what he wants and when he finds what he wants…he takes it."

ChiChi and Pan sat silent and merely continued eating there food.

Breakfast was finished and Uncle Ben was off to open up his blacksmith shop.

"Be good girls, have fun today." He said as he mounted his horse and rode to his shop.

"Bye Uncle Ben!" The girls shouted as they waved goodbye to him. Across the way they saw Ox saying goodbye to Pan and ChiChi. He then got in his carriage and headed off to open his grocer shop. Pan and ChiChi saw them across the way and waved to Bulma and Bra. The girls smiled and waved back and then they went inside as did Pan and ChiChi.

"So Bulma are you off to the tavern now?" Bra asked.

"Yes, the sooner I go, the sooner I can get accepted and the sooner I can keep myself busy." Bulma said as she then opened the door and walked out heading towards the tavern, as she did many men turned their heads over to her and they all smiled in surprise at what they saw.

Bra then decided to go over to Ox's house and introduce herself to Pan and ChiChi. With that Bra closed the house door and she corssed the dirt road over to Ox's house. She then knocked twice on the door and waited for an answer.

Suddenly the door opened and it was Pan.

"Hi, I'm Bra Briefs, Benjamin Briefs niece. I just wanted to stop by and say hi." Bra said feeling slightly nervous as Pan glanced at her blankly for a minute. Pan then smiled.

"Hi, nice to meet you, I was hoping you'd stop by."

"Who's at the door Pan?" ChiChi hollered from the kitchen as she was clearing the table.

"Its Bra Briefs from across the street Chi! She came to say hi!" Pan shouted back. Pan then looked back at Bra who looked at her with a nervous smile, "Come on in."

"Thanks." Bra said stepping inside.

Bulma was now in front of the tavern and saw that the sign for a new cook was still there. With a quick intake of breath she walk up to the door and opened it. Many men stopped and stared at her in awe, many had goofy grins on, while others merely stared doing nothing. Bulma saw an old man at the counter of the bar and she walked over to him, "Hello sir, I'm to fill in and be the new cook."

The old man looked her over for a minute and then asked, "What can you make?"

Bulma smiled, "I can make just about everything a man loves to eat sir."

The man smirked, "Well, if you don't mind serving a bunch of men for a few hours Monday through Saturday, and if you don't mind chopping wood for the oven every so often, then I can give you the job. You look like a woman who isn't a afraid of a little hard work."

Bulma smiled and her eyes sparkled, "No sir, I am not afraid of a little hard work at all, and I certainly don't mind serving a bunch of men as long as they can appreciate my cooking."

"I'm sure they will missy, you seem like a woman the men will want to come back to for food." The man replied as he handed her a large wooden spoon.

Bulma took it and looked a little confused, for she didn't know why he had handed it to her, "Sir?"

The man smirked, "Today's Lunch menu will be Stew."

Bulma smiled, "What kind of stew sir?"

"Whatever kind you like young lady…by the way what's your name?"

"My name is Bulma sir."

"Alright then Bulma, I am pleased to have you working in my tavern, I know you'll do fine here."

With that Bulma headed behind the doors of the kitchen and began preparing the largest pot of stew she had ever cooked in her life.

Over at Ox's house Bra, Pan and ChiChi were getting acquainted with each other.

"So what is life in this town like?" Bra asked as the three girls sat on the porch.

"Well its nothing much. The only interesting things are the barn raisings and town dances which don't happen very often." Pan replied.

"Yes but I must say that Mr. Fields is keeping things interesting since this'll be his third barn raising in less then a year." ChiChi added.

Bra smiled, "What happens at a barn raising?"

"Well everyone from the town comes together, the women bring little things to make the place look nice while the men compete in raising their side of the barn up first and finishing it. It's a big social gathering basically. And before the barn is raised there is dancing and eating." Pan said with a smile.

"Sounds like a nice thing." Bra said as she thought of what the barn raisings were like.

"You'll be going to Mr. Fields' barn raising I imagine?" ChiChi asked.

Bra looked over at ChiChi with a shrug, "I guess so, my uncle was talking to your father about it yesterday when I arrived."

ChiChi nodded, "You'll be going, and I'll just say be ready to have the men practically fight to dance with you. There will be many who will want to court you after that."

Bra frowned, "Doesn't sound to fun."

"That's cause it isn't fun." Pan said with a cold reply.

ChiChi nodded, "She's right, its not really that fun, especially if you don't like the person."

Bra nodded, "I know what you mean. So are you saying there are no young men in the town that appeal to you?"

ChiChi and Pan shook their heads, "No." They both replied in unison.

"What about that guy…what's his name…um…Vegeta." Bra said.

ChiChi and Pan grew wide eyed, "Vegeta? Us? Like?"

Bra nodded, "Well yeah…do you?"

They laughed, "No way…he's not our type…he's too conceited and thinks he's better then everyone."

"Why? Cause he just has confidence in himself?" Bra said, not knowing if she was defending Vegeta or just trying to make a statement.

ChiChi looked at Bra curiously, "Only cause you haven't met Vegeta yet will I let you slide by saying that."

"Why what would you have said if I had met Vegeta?" Bra asked curiously.

"Well I might've just said that you liked him." ChiChi said with a mischievous smirk.

Suddenly a girl with raven black hair and blue eyes came over to the girls on the porch with a smile.

"Hey girls…who's the new person?" She asked with a friendly smile.

"Hey Videl…this is Bra she just arrived here yesterday." Replied Pan.

Videl glanced at Bra and extended her hand, "Hi. I'm Videl Satan, nice to meet you."

Bra smiled and shook Videl's hand, "Likewise."

"So what's going on Videl?" ChiChi asked curiously.

"Well rumor has it that Vegeta is headed to town right now, and this time he is getting himself a wife." Videl replied.

Pan smirked, "Wonder who will be the unlucky girl, if he even gets one."

Videl glanced over at Pan with an odd look, "Funny you'd say that Pan."

Pan raised a brow to Videl, "Why?"

"I don't know, maybe because a short while ago you had a crush on him." Videl said with a smirk.

"Oh please, that lasted only for like a day." Pan said rolling her eyes.

Videl giggled, "Well, all I'm thinking of is, knowing how picky Vegeta is, who will he actually want for a wife. Every girl who wanted to be his wife he didn't even give them a second glance."

"So I've heard." Bra said with a smirk as she glanced over at the mountains, which were behind the village scenery.

The three girls looked at Bra with smirks, then at each other.

"I'm surprised his brother and cousins haven't paraded down here as well claiming that they will have themselves a wife as well." ChiChi said with a smirk.

Videl laughed, "I've come to notice over the years that there is no one like Vegeta. His brother and cousins don't have his balls."

All the girls starting laughing…just then Pan stopped laughing, "Hey girls…look isn't that Vegeta riding into town right now?"
