"BULMA! No.. What has she done to you!"
Vegeta kneeled down and turned her around. Her face was a complete mess, someone had cut her face with a knife. That someone had to be Janet of course. Vegeta was shaking all over and checked if Bulma was still breathing. She lost an awful amount of blood. Therr were cuts all over her body, he noticed. Janet must have been cutting her franticly, so many cuts there were. Her legs, her arms, her hands, just everywhere. If he didn't do something quickly, she would die. He knew he had some sensubeans in the bathroom but didn't dare to leave her alone. Picking her up would be too risky, she would only lose more blood. He decided to take his chance and ran to the bathroom. He opened the medicine cupboard and looked at the empty bottom shelve. They were gone. The bitch! He ran to the bedroom, there still had to be a bean in his pocket. He picked up his clothes from the floor and searched them. There was still a bean in his right pocket. He rushed downstairs again and gave her the sensubean. He almost wanted to cry when she opened her eyes again. The cuts on her body healed again and she was able to get up. She started to cry and fell in Vegeta's arms. He felt a bit awkward, comforting persons was never his best quality but he tried as hard as he could.
"That retched girl. She had a knife. I yelled and yelled but you couldn't hear me. She just laughed and laughed and laughed while she lashed out at me with that knife. She cut me everywhere but didn't damage my face.. She only did that after.. after she."
Bulma started to cry uncontrollably. What the hell did she do to her? Vegeta pressed her face against his shoulder. He decided not to ask anything yet. After a minute the crying got less and Bulma looked up again.
"She had a photo of Trunks and she burned it in front of my eyes. That laugh. I still hear that laugh echoing in my ears. She just said. 'This photo burns and so will he.'"
"The bitch.. I'll kill her! I'll kill her with my own hands."
He looked at her. The wounds were healed now but the T-shirt she was wearing was completely torn to shreds. You could exactly see that where she had cut her.
"Did she say anything else?"
"Uh.. no. That was all."
"Don't lie to me."
"It's nothing, it's not important."
"Let me decide about that! What did she say!"
"I already told you, it's not that big a deal."
"Tell me what she said!"
"She.. she was sitting on top of me with the knife in her hand, just above my eyes. She talked about you two. How madly in love you were. She said that the love you two made was far more better that that pathetic performance two nights ago. She said that you probably think about her when you. when you.. you know otherwise you couldn't get the deed done because I'm so disgusting. I spat at her face and then she burned that photo and cut my face. How could she say such a thing!"
"She's a fucking liar! You know she is. Why didn't I try to kill her before! I must have been able to find her somehow!"
"You know you couldn't. I'm not blaming you or anything. I only blame that girl."
"I'll give Kakarot a call to tell him that he has to bring Trunks here at once. I'm not leaving you alone for one second. I'm not too confident with Trunks at Kakarot's house. It's my job to protect my son, not Kakarot's. Now that I've been able to remember what happened it's time to get Trunks back here."
"Let him stay, he'll be safe there with Goku, Gohan and Goten. Safer than here anyway."
"Are you trying to say that I can't even protect my own son?!"
"Look at me what happened when you left me alone for just 5 minutes! I wasn't even her main target! Trunks will have three guys to protect him!"
"I'm not letting Kakarot protecting my son. He's my responsibility! I'll call Kakarot now."
An hour later Goku arrived with Gohan and Trunks. Trunks asked if Gohan was allowed to sleep over a few nights. Bulma was glad Gohan decided not to leave Trunks alone. Vegeta didn't really like it but had to admit that it was safer with Gohan in the house as well. Bulma, Goku and Gohan staid upstairs to talk and Vegeta and Trunks went to the gravity room to train. Trunks could sense that there had happened something, he could sense the tension in the house.
"Dad, what happened?"
"What do you mean?"
"Oh, I thought something was wrong."
"No, everything's OK."
They continued training. Vegeta smiled at his son. He was still so young and innocent. He couldn't tell him what happened, he didn't have to know. After he killed the girl he might tell him what had happened.
Goku and Gohan listened to Bulma's story. She cried while telling it. Goku put his arms around her.
"If someone's able to protect his family, it's Vegeta. Don't worry, he'll find her. He loves you and Trunks, he'll do anything for you."
"Maybe his best isn't good enough."
"You're everything to him, he can get rid of the girl if he wants to. The only problem is that he has to find her."
Vegeta and Trunks went back upstairs after hours of training. When he entered the living room, Goku and Gohan were still there. Bulma had invited them for diner.
"Vegeta, listen, why don't I stay here as well. With my help we can find her for sure."
"I don't need your help Kakarot, I'll find her by myself and I will kill her by myself. It's none of your business."
"But you see how she's getting to you, look at you, you're shattered by all this. How would you be able to fight her all by yourself?"
"For the last time, I'll fight her alone. She threatened my family, this is my fight. Leave me alone."
Gohan entered the conversation as well.
"Vegeta, I really think that."
"You shouldn't think at all, kid. You're no Saiyan so you can't understand the word 'responsibility.' A Saiyan should be strong enough to defend his own family. I'm a true Saiyan, the only one left. Where's your pride kid?"
"You're not the only Saiyan left." Bulma said.
"Kakarot isn't a true Saiyan, he's a mere earthling in my eyes."
"I wasn't talking about Goku."
