A Woman's Shattered Dreams
Chapter 12: Gonna get married...and a lil' surprise
The months passed quickly and it was the big day. The day Trunks and Rei would become Man and Wife. (ER..Sayian and Mate.) Rei and Bulma were in the back of the large church getting ready. "Man.. I'm so nervous." Rei said aloud as her dress was zipped. "It's surprising that even though you're with child it doesn't really look like it." Bulma said. "I know. But some planetary magic is helping too so the flat stomach is mostly a lie but in a few weeks it won't." Rei said. "I am a bit late on my due date." Bulma said. "I know." Rei said. "But the doctor is going to induce my labor at 5 this afternoon so we your father-in-law and I will be leaving the reception as soon as you two cut the cake and pour the wine." Bulma said. Rei laughed with her friend as a pain went through her back. These pains were increasing more in intensity since last week. "So have you and Trunks come up with a name for the baby yet?" Bulma asked. "Iie, not yet." Rei said. "Well me and Vegeta thought of a name for our lil' girl. Her earthly name will be Bra but her Earth Princess title will be Midori Chikyuu." Bulma said. "That's a beautiful name." Rei said. "Well I bet your daughter will have a beautiful name too. After all she has such a loving mother and father." Bulma said. "I know but.. When she gets older she'll question about her real father." Rei said. "I don't think she will." Bulma said with a smile.
"Oh? And how are you so sure?" Rei asked. Bulma took out a golden jewel. "Hell no that can't be.." Rei trailed. "It formed from out of nowhere last night." Bulma said holding the Golden Crystal in her hands. "What are you going to do?" Rei asked. "Something I wanted to do for a long time. Since I sensed that you wanted the baby to be strickly yours and Trunks' child." Bulma said and closed her eyes. Rei felt her eyes prickle with tears. "Golden Crystal.. I wish for the baby inside Rei Hino, Lady and Sovereign of Mars to be that of her and Lord Trunks' of Chikyuu." Bulma wished as a light of silver entered Rei's body. The warmth of the light entering Rei's womb made Rei hug herself. Bulma smiled to see now that her grandbaby would actually be Trunks and Rei's and not to be adopted by Trunks knowing the difficulty the child would be when older and finding out that the person they called daddy wasn't truly their daddy. The light faded and Rei stood there looking at her best friend with gratitude beyond that of a thank you could show. Rei just hugged her would be mother-in-law. "I know there's no way you can thank me for that. But don't worry about that for now. You are going to be married in a few minutes." Bulma said fixing the veil on Rei's head. The bouquet of white and red roses was handed to her as she got closer to the isle to which she would walk down and change her life.
**Moments before in the Men's section of the church**
Trunks was fixing his tie and cuffs while his father was fixing his own tux. "I'm proud of you." Vegeta said surprising Trunks. "I'm proud that you are being a man about your emotions and your woman as well as the responsibility of taking charge of a child." Vegeta said. Trunks was never praised by a father figure in his life and took this as one of the cherished father-son moments. "So what about you and mom. I heard you and the doctor talking earlier today." Trunks said. "Bulma is late with the baby so they are going to induce her labor at five this evening." Vegeta said. "I'll ask Rei if we are going to come. After all it's going to be my sister and Rei's sister-in-law." Trunks said. "And skip your first night with Rei. I am a full blooded Sayian and I know when it comes to marriage that you don't want to leave your mate's side." Vegeta said and then sensed the golden crystal granting his wife the wish of the baby in Rei's womb to be Trunks and Rei's. A smile came to his charming features. "Well, your mother just did something that your wife couldn't find words to say thanks to." Vegeta said. "What is it?" Trunks asked. "She just wished on the Golden Crystal that the baby will be yours and Rei's not that human's." Vegeta said. Now Trunks couldn't find words to say to his mother when it came to the reception although they would have to leave after the cake was cut.
"Father, I want to see my sister be born and I know Rei will want to be by mom's side since they've been friends since the Silver Millennium so I'm coming with you." Trunks said. "That's fine with me. Any ways I've been smelling that your wife isn't far from having your child." Vegeta said. "I know." Trunks said. "Well, it's time to get going. You don't want to miss seeing your bride walk down the isle." Vegeta said. "Right." Trunks said. A certain young boy was next to Trunks. It was Gohan and he was Trunks' best man. The man who was going to walk Rei down the isle was her friend Andrew who worked at the Video Game place. Her Maid of honor was Bulma and her brides' maids were Molly, Andrew's sister Elizabeth, Catsy, and Kate. Goku, Krillen, Tien, and the turned good Android 17 were standing next to Trunks watching him look nervously at the end of the isle. Music started to play as the brides' maids readied themselves to walk down the isle. Catsy's daughter Alexandra walked down the isle as the flower girl and Bertie's son Andrew walked down the isle next to Alexandra as the ring bear. The bride's maids walked down the isle first and went to their respective side. The wedding march started to play and all the guests started to stand and look towards the back to watch the bride. Trunks looked towards the back and saw Rei there. His eyes widened to see how beautiful she looked in the elegant white wedding gown.
Rei nervously started to walk down the isle with Andrew. All the guests there were rebirths of people from the Silver Millennium that were friends and family of both families. Most were friends from Rei's side and most were family on Trunks' side. Rei's white dress was all silk and had a long train that stretched about 12 feet behind her. This wedding was fit for royalty that was for sure. There were small diamonds and pearls in her hair and in the veil. "My, Princess Mars sure looks stunning." A lot of the guests murmured to each other while watching Rei walk down the isle. Andrew gave the bride; his sister's friend to her would be husband and stepped back. Rei saw how handsome her husband was and had to control herself from kissing him. But Trunks had the same thought and gave her a small peck on the lips. Trunks' shoulder length hair was tied back in a ponytail and his serious eyes could pierce through any heart. His dark handsome looks made some of Rei's friends from the past and present jealous. "You may be seated." The pastor said to the guests. "Dearly beloved. We are here today to unite two lovers from long ago in holy matrimony. Princess Rei Rhila Hino of the Mars Kingdom and Prince Trunks Vegeta Briefs of the Golden Kingdom of Earth." The pastor started.
Bulma was near tears already. Seeing her son so prideful and her friend so happy and beautiful could most possibly move the most coldest of hearts. Vegeta looked at his son with pride beaming in his stance. This feeling he liked and knew that he would love this feeling when it came to his daughter when she was older. "If there is anyone who believes these two shall not join in matrimony speak now or forever hold your peace." The pastor said. There was silence for a moment but then the sounds of the church's doors opening made the crowd turn around. There was Chad with a pissed off look on his face. "Great." Rei muttered. "Stupid earthling." Vegeta said. "Pastor.." Vegeta said. "Yes King Vegeta?" The pastor asked. "I'm going to punish this human." Trunks said. The entire crowd looked at Trunks. "He had taken advantage of your sovereign." Vegeta said to the Martian portion of the church. The faithful people of Mars stood up and bowed to the princess and then turned to glare at Chad. "I object to this marriage cause that baby she has is mine!" Chad yelled. "Stupid human. It is no longer yours." Rei said putting her arm around Trunks' to calm him. Trunks looked at his future queen and saw her calm façade was now harsher than the coldest of nights. "What do you mean?!" Chad yelled. Molly looked at Chad shocked at what she heard.
"Ruining my own wedding. Shame on you. I cannot believe that you found out about this." Rei said coldly. The Martian portion of the church were now next to the Earth portion very angered that this holy union was interrupted by an uninvited guest who was a mere mortal. "I love you Rei you should know that. I'm sorry about that night. I was drunken and-" Chad was cut off as Trunks punched him in the face. "Leave this holy place and never think about MY wife EVER again." Trunks said coldly as he went back to Rei and held her to him lovingly. Rei hugged her husband and then walked up to Chad, eyes glazed with ice. "Leave now." She hissed before using her full strength and pushed him to where he was on the other side of the street denting an office building. Rei turned back around. "Shall we continue?" She asked so sweetly. The ceremony continued without error or interruption. The vows were exchanged and the time for the rings had passed. The two looked at each other lovingly as the last famous words were spoken. "I now pronounce Lady Rei Hino of Mars and Lord Trunks Briefs of Earth man and wife. You may kiss the bride." The pastor said closing an ancient book. Trunks took his hand and tilted his wife's chin up before kissing her on the lips. The whole church clapped and cried to see the now married prince and princess kiss.
The reception was started and the usual earthly traditions were underway. Trunks threw the lacy elastic band that was on Rei's thigh into the crowd of single men that attended while Rei took her bouquet and threw it into a crowd of single women. There was cake and food for everyone. Bulma came up to Rei and was ready to say goodbye but Rei took her friend's hand in hers. "Trunks and I are coming to see the baby be born." She said. Bulma felt so moved that she started to cry in her friend's/daughter-in- law's arms. "Well everyone. Thank you for coming but my dear mother and father in law are going to have their second child. So I hope you enjoy the reception without us." Rei said. "May the heavens bless you two for years to come with happiness and joy." Many of the people said before Rei, Trunks, Bulma, and Vegeta left.
They arrived at the hospital just on time at 5pm. "Mrs. Bulma Briefs come this way." The doctor said. "Is this your family?" Asked the doctor. "Yes, this is my husband, my son and his wife." Bulma said. "So my guess is that they want to see the baby so they skipped out on their reception." The doctor said. "Yes." Trunks said. Katherine took charge and the whole family was in a private room. Rei and Trunks were in casual clothes sitting in chairs. "You're already dilated 2 centimeters." Katherine said surprised. Bulma was surprised how quickly the medicine was working. Rei was holding her best friend's hand when a pain shot through her tummy and body. Katherine saw Rei wince from the pain and got up to sit next to Rei. "You're near 40 weeks." She said. "Yes. But I'm not due until next week." Rei said before another shot of pain zipped through her body. "But it is possible to have your baby a week before due date." Katherine said. "I can't be in labor." Rei said. "Well lets hook you up to a monitor and see if you are or not." Katherine said showing Rei to a bed next to Bulma's. Katherine but a baby heart monitor on Rei's tummy and gasped. "The baby.. It's already heading south for the winter." Katherine joked while looking at the baby on the screen. "Oh man." Rei groaned as another zip of pain came. "That must have been a contraction." Bulma said. "Well, it seems that you and Bulma are having your babies tonight." Katherine said with a smile. An unceremonious thud was heard. Rei, Bulma, and Katherine turned to see that Trunks had passed out on the ground from surprise. "Oh dear." Rei said and then had an all out contraction. Vegeta woke his son up. "Honey, we're having our baby tonight." Rei said glowing with happiness.
"I know Rei. I know." Trunks said taking Rei's hand in his as she went through another contraction. "It might take a while for her to have the baby so you know just stick to her side." Katherine said while checking Bulma's progress. Bulma was laughing so hard from the ironic turn of events that Vegeta was telling her to stop laughing. "But it's so funny. Rei and I are going to have our kids on the same day." Bulma said. "I know it is a bit funny." Rei said while squeezing Trunks' hand during a contraction. Trunks looked at his wife and then to his mother. He was about to see how much pain Bulma went when brining him into the world. But he would feel like a whole bunch of Buu's hit him head on. "Darling. If you want to go home go ahead. This is going to take a while." Rei said. "I'm not moving an inch from your side." Trunks said huskily while moving a few stray strands of hair from Rei's face. Hours passed and it was around midnight now. Bulma was ready to deliver while Rei was almost there. When something wrong happened. "Ow. What the hell was that?" Bulma asked while feeling a great deal of pain. The monitors on Bulma's baby were going insane. "Oh no. The baby's in distress." Katherine said reading the printouts. "What do you mean?" Vegeta asked. "She's stuck." Katherine said. "What will happen now?" Vegeta asked. "We have to do an emergency C-Section." She said while already calling the surgeon that was on call upstairs. And at the same time this was happening Rei was now ready to deliver as well. The contractions were coming closer and closer together. "Katherine. I think this girl wants out." Rei gasped between the pain of the contractions. Trunks could now feel Rei's grip on his hand tighten a lot more. He could hear his knuckles pop under the pressure she was giving from squeezing his hand.
"Ok. Two babies at one time. This is just great." Katherine said getting some surgical clothing on. "I'll be delivering two at the same time. This is going to be new." She said while the sleeping gas tank was carried in.
Trunks and Vegeta looked at their wives with worry. Katherine as well as a surgical team was now doing an emergency C-section while she was trying to coach Trunks in how to help Rei deliver the baby. Molly came into the hospital for work when she was pulled over to the side by the head resident. "Your friend Rei Briefs is in delivery room 23-V I think they'll need you up there. Doctor Katherine cannot handle an emergency C-section and try to coach your friend's husband." The resident said. Molly ran to the elevator and was at the room in less than 4 minutes to see the chaos in the room. "Molly-chan thank kami you're here you know what to do help Trunks and Rei." Katherine said.
An hour passed and now there was quiet in the room. Bulma was asleep as Rei was silently crying. The cries of two babies then broke the peace. "So what are you going to name them?" Molly asked Vegeta and Trunks. "Midori Chikyuu Briefs but Bra Elaine Briefs for the Earthlings." Vegeta said now taking his daughter into his arms. "And you two?" Molly asked towards Rei and Trunks. "Hikari." Trunks said. "Hikari Tenshi Briefs." Rei finished as she saw her husband bring their daughter to her. Molly smiled to see the two families together. Trunks and Rei were on their side looking at their daughter with smiles on their faces as Vegeta held his daughter waiting for his wife to awake.
Violet eyes stared into two pairs of eyes. One pair like hers and another that were sky blue. Lavender hair still pasted to her head as she moved her arms around. This was Hikari Tenshi Briefs. The next in line for the Martian throne. She waved her arms at her mother and then to her father. Two very happy and proud parents looked down upon her and kissed her forehead and cheek. "This is our new life. The new beginning." Trunks said to Rei before kissing her on the lips. The light of the two's love shone as a new crystal formed in front of Rei's chest. The inferno crystal had been born.
Blue eyes stared into a pair of onyx eyes. The same blue eyes looked at a woman who seemed to be asleep on a bed. She waved her arms towards the man while cooing. This was Midori Chikyuu Briefs. The crowned princess of the Golden Kingdom and Vegeta-sei. And aunt of Hikari. Vegeta looked down at his daughter and saw how much she looked like Bulma. She had the blushish hair like her mother's but had the tough look of Vegeta's pasted to her face. Vegeta kissed his daughter on the cheek and allowed her to fall asleep until Bulma awoke. "Bulma, she looks just like you." He said to his sleeping wife.

Violet eyes stared into two pairs of eyes. One pair like hers and another that were sky blue. Lavender hair still pasted to her head as she moved her arms around. This was Hikari Tenshi Briefs. The next in line for the Martian throne. She waved her arms at her mother and then to her father. Two very happy and proud parents looked down upon her and kissed her forehead and cheek. "This is our new life. The new beginning." Trunks said to Rei before kissing her on the lips. The light of the two's love shone as a new crystal formed in front of Rei's chest. The inferno crystal had been born.
Blue eyes stared into a pair of onyx eyes. The same blue eyes looked at a woman who seemed to be asleep on a bed. She waved her arms towards the man while cooing. This was Midori Chikyuu Briefs. The crowned princess of the Golden Kingdom and Vegeta-sei. And aunt of Hikari. Vegeta looked down at his daughter and saw how much she looked like Bulma. She had the blushish hair like her mother's but had the tough look of Vegeta's pasted to her face. Vegeta kissed his daughter on the cheek and allowed her to fall asleep until Bulma awoke. "Bulma, she looks just like you." He said to his sleeping wife.
