Author's Notes: Hello? Is anyone still reading this? *Crickets chirp* Oh
well. At least now I won't have to dodge the flying objects. *a boot flies
through the window*. scratch that.
Disclaimer: Does anyone actually think that I own DBZ? I know we all wish we did, heck, I'd just settle for Vegeta. *daydreams for a moment*. Sorry about that. I DON'T OWN DBZ!!! *Sob*
Lost: chapter 8
"Beep.beep.beep.beep."
Bulma groaned and rolled over, trying to go back to sleep. Ever since Vegeta and Kakkarot had left for their purging mission she'd become lazy and slept in until 10 each morning.
"Beep.beep.BEEP."
Maybe if she stayed in bed and ignored it, the incessant beeping would stop.
"BEEEEEEEP!"
No such luck. Yawning, she stretched and rolled out of bed. In the next room was the video consol and Bulma had half her mind set on blasting the damn thing and the going back to sleep. Grabbing a plate of toast that Chi chi had left her, she sat down and slammed her fist on the blue button that played her message. The King's face popped up onto the screen, and he did not look too happy.
"Onna, haul your ass over to the throne room immediately and that's an order."
Uh-oh, the King seemed pissed. Not a good sign, especially when he didn't inform her what their little "meeting" was about. Bulma hurriedly scarfed down the rest of her breakfast, got dressed, and flew to the throne room as fast as she could.
"Well, that's four down and only ten more to go." Kakkarot's cheery voice cut through the soft crackling of the flames that now engulfed what was left of the planet's pitiful civilization.
"Hn." Was all Vegeta said, staring intently at the flames in front of him, allowing his thoughts to wander to the many subjects that plagued his mind; Why was Freeza so interested in the Sayians' power? What was his father going to d about it? Did he really expect him to mate with some random slut that his father chose just to uphold a stupid tradition? Why did his father care about what happened to Bulma? Why did he care what happened to Bulma? How was she? What.
"Ok, Vegeta, the pods are ready to take us to the next planet." Kakkarot said as he stepped into his pod, wondering what made Vegeta zone out like that. He knew that Freeza was planning something horrible, but no one had the slightest inclination as to what it was.
"Lord Freeza has just contacted me." The King spoke through pursed lips, " Apparently he now wants the three most powerful Sayians beside myself and my son and his guard, to be sent to him. Unfortunately, you fall into that category. In 2 hours you will leave with two of my personal soldiers, Nappa, and Radditz, for Freeza's ship. Although you may have a greater power level than Nappa and Radditz, they are both above you in class; Radditz is a 2nd class warrior and Nappa is an elite soldier, one of my best. You, little 3rd class orphan, are to show them respect at all times and follow their orders- no matter what happens. Now leave and be in the launch bay, ready to go, in two hours."
Chi chi found Bulma packing in their room.
" Bulma! What's happening? Why are you leaving?" she exclaimed.
For fear that her friend would hyperventilate, Bulma answered as quickly as possible.
" Freeza needed some more damn soldiers for a purging mission and- lucky me- the King sent me to go on this little trip. Hopefully I'll be back around the same time as Kakkarot and Vegeta, but I doubt it." Bulma turned and faced Chi chi while throwing some training suits onto her bed, " Freeza's plotting something, I know it! Ii mean, there's got to be a reason why now he's sending all of our most powerful soldiers off the planet!"
In her frustration, Bulma slammed the drawer shut and cracked the dresser.
Seeing that her friend was upset and needed some time to think, Chi chi started to make lunch for them, wondering what the hell was going on, what they were going to do about it, and what she was going to do with both Bulma and Kakkarot gone.
Two hours passed way too quickly for Bulma and after lunch and a quick, and teary in Chi chi's case, goodbye, she headed for the launching bay.
Nappa and Radditz were two of the biggest Sayians that Bulma had ever seen. If she hadn't known that she was stronger than the two of them she would have been having second thoughts about going on a mission with these two imposing figures. The strange thing was that neither of them seemed to notice her. Bulma checked her scouter to make sure that she wasn't late. Nope, it was 11:55 she was early.
After standing in the same spot, looking like a baka for five minutes, Bulma finally walked over to them.
"Are you guys Nappa and Radditz?" Bulma asked.
"Yes. Why do you ask?" Nappa gruffly stated, annoyed that this little girl came over to flirt with them when they were supposed to be gone.
"I'm Bulma." Seeing no signs of recognition, or for that matter, any other emotion on their faces, she added, " The other Sayian who's going with you."
That caught their attention. Radditz stepped forward and looked her over. " We were told that the other Sayian would be the one who trained with Prince Vegeta and his guard in the GR. You don't look like you could even land a punch on me, let alone be stronger than the both of us." Radditz scoffed.
Bulma could feel her extremely short temper snapping. " And would I have to do just that to prove to you that I really am who I say I am?" Bulma smirked as Radditz nodded. "Too easy."
Instantly, Bulma blurred out of sight and reappeared behind Radditz. With one swift punch she had Radditz pinned on his stomach on the floor. Looking up at the stupefied (how surprising) Nappa, she smirked up at him and asked,
" Do you believe me now?"
Author's Notes: I know that the chapter's short, but I have had a really really really bad case of writer's block. I actually wrote this chapter in my docket with the words being about 2mm high. Everyone who saw me scribbling in it, besides by dear friend Kokoro, told me that I was insane and needed some help. I don't know about you, but I consider fanfiction a place where all of us can be insane and write. Anyways, I'll hopefully have the next chapter up faster than this one. Oh, and I know that there wasn't a lot of Vegeta and Kakkarot in this chapter, but I wanted to focus on getting Bulma outta there. If you are actually still reading this I want to thank you- if I could, I'd invite you all over here for pizza, or maybe give you my brother's devil guinea pig, or, if my scanner was working, I'd send you all some pics of whatever characters you want, but I can't. Hopefully, my thanks will do for now.
