VEGA'S STORY
CHAPTER FOUR
It was a bright, sunny summer day. A now almost 14 year old Vega was gathering some wild flowers to put in her hair for her birthday party. She thought back to this morning in the Gravity Chamber, 'I almost beat dad if I train a little harder maybe I could' she thought excitedly. She lay down on the grass and sighed. A little butterfly landed next to her.
"Guess what Butterfly, Dad says I'm almost a Super Saya-jin!" Vega said.
The butterfly just sat there wiggling its wings and Vega related her day to it.
"Mom said I should just go buy some flowers but I like wildflowers better, do u?" Asked Vega.
Suddenly Vega rolled, not knowing why, but her instinct was right as a foot came crashing down where her head was only moments before. Still rolling Vega sent a ki ball blindly in the direction of her still unknown attacker. She jumped into the air ready to defend herself, but nothing came. Vega kept all her senses alert and heard nothing. Suddenly she dodged to the right as a ki blast went flying past her, missing her by inches. She dodged again as another was thrown at her.
"You coward come out and fight like a girl!" Vega called, trying to raw her attacker out of hiding.
She spun just in time to see a man appear behind her with a kit blast in his hands. Vega kicked out with all her might and heard a grunt as boot meet flesh. He punched her in the stomach, barely inconvenienced by her kick. Vega fell and hit the ground. Hard. He landed on top of her driving his foot into her stomach. Vega screamed and grabbed his foot. She threw him but he didn't go very far. Her brain was whirring, he was stronger then her, faster then her and larger then her. How could she get the advantage? 'Think Vega' she screamed inside her head. 'I have to get my back to something' Vega spared precious seconds looking around. She saw a cliff and made her way to it as fast as she could. Her attacker had disappeared again. Suddenly ropes of energy blasted at her. They secured her arms, waist, neck, and legs. She screamed as she fought the bonds but it was to no avail. She was strapped to the cliff. She couldn't move, and could barely breathe. In a second her attacker appeared in front of her and laughed, then punched her in the face. He then he kicked her in her face. Vega being very stubborn, decided she wasn't gonna let him see her cry. He punched her in her stomach, then stopped. Vega's hair was now yellow, her eyes blue. Yet she still couldn't breaks the bonds. He looked at her with growing amusement and a horrible grin spread across his face. He reached out his hand towards her shirt. At that time an animal like roar was heard as Super Saya-jin Goten descended upon the man and kicked him squarely in the jaw. Goten and Vega's attacker disappeared in a shroud of dust. Suddenly the dust settled leaving a surprised Goten standing there. He quickly flew over to Vega.
"Are you okay?" He asked nervously as he broke her bonds.
"I'm fine," she said not to convincingly as blood streamed down her face.
"Let's get out of here," Goten said as he started to fly. When no one followed him he turned and saw a frightened looking Vega hanging on to the cliff.
"Umm Goten, I can't fly right now, could you carry me?" Vega asked, ashamed at her weakness but determined to act like everything was normal.
"Sure," was his response and he gently picked her up and flew toward Capsule Corp
Vegeta meet them half way. "Why is Vega's energy so low! What happened!"
"Dad, this guy attacked me," Vega said weakly, "And Goten saved me."
"Where is he" Vegeta growled with murder in is eyes.
"He left," Vega said tiredly.
Vegeta muttered as he took Vega from Goten, "This is very serious, if a person could beat Vega then he must be very strong."
"Oh and Dad," Vega said on the verge of sleep, "He wasn't human, he had a tail" ____________________________________________________________________________ __________
Vega's Birthday party was delayed until she recovered.
The day before the party Vega wanted to get more wild flowers from the same valley. Both Bulma and Vegeta said no. Vega finally convinced Vegeta to come with her when she went. She was relieved that both of her parents agreed to this arrangement. Vegeta went along because he knew she would go any way and didn't want any thing to happen to her. He also agreed because he wanted a chance to pound her mysterious attacker. Bulma agreed because Vegeta agreed. The trip to the valley was uneventful and Vega returned with an armful of flowers.
The next day Bulma greeted the guests as Vega got ready. Vega decided to french-braid the small blue flowers into her hair, and tuck the big blue one behind her ear. They contrasted quite prettily with her white dress. Deep down Vega hated dresses, they always got in the way, but today Mom wanted her to wear one. She turned as she heard her door open, almost expecting another attack. It was only Bra.
"I decided to give you your present early, little sis," said Bra cheerfully as she took a little box from behind her back.
"What do u mean 'little sis' I'm as old as u r now," Vega said jokingly as she accepted the gift.
"But only for another 5 days," Bra giggled out, "Go ahead and open it"
Vega opened the box and inside was a pair of blue flower earrings. Her eyes widened in shock.
"Come-on put them in," Bra said taking them from her and placing them in her ears. "They match" Bra said happily. "Lets go out to the party, Pan just arrived," Bra said.
Pan was Vega's best friend in the world; they were a lot alike. They both liked fighting and were about equal strengths. Bra and Vega headed out the door and down the stairs to the party. As she descended all eyes were on her.
"Happy Birthday Vega!" Everyone called. ____________________________________________________________________________ __________ Vega opened the presents from her Mom and Dad first. Vegeta gave her a pair of weighted boots and Bulma gave her a watch with lots of little gadgets inside. Then she opened Trunk's gift, which turned out to be a set of hacky sacks. He said that she should try to juggle all 20 without her hands or feet. From Chi-Chi and Goku she got a set of weighted regular everyday clothes. Gohan and Videl gave her a bag of senzu beans, and Pan gave her a head handkerchief like the one she had, except blue.
As everyone dispersed to get food she realized that Goten was still next to her. Also she realized that he hadn't given her a present.
"Vega" he said, "I have your present here and I have to leave so I'm just gonna give it to you then go."
"Going out on a date, huh" she teased.
"No, actually I broke up with my girlfriend a month ago"
"Oh, I'm sorry"
"I'm not"
"Here's your gift," Goten said handing her a card.
It said:
One free, all expense paid dinner and a movie with Son Goten on Saturday night 7:00pm -10:00pm
-Son Goten P.S. It's impolite to refuse a birthday gift.
She blushed and looked up at him.
"Here's the gift topper," he said as he kissed her.
Then he turned and left. Vega was blushing the rest of the night.
"Well, what happened to u?" Asked Pan strait forwardly after Vega entered the dining room, "You're redder than a tomato."
"Umm, Goten wants me to be his girlfriend," Vega said as she showed Pan the card and told her what happened.
"Wait," said Pan, "Goten as in my uncle Goten?"
Vega nodded, "Do you know any others?"
"Are you gonna go?"
"Not if you don't want me to"
"What do I have to do with anything?"
"Well like you said he is your uncle, and I don't want things to be awkward"
"If you want to go, then go it's as simple as that"
"But what would Mom and Dad say, I don't know if they will let me date a guy that's 23, even if he is one we know" ____________________________________________________________________________ __________
The next day at breakfast Vega told Vegeta, Trunks, Bra and Bulma that she had a date that night. Bulma only smiled and said ok whereas Vegeta and Trunks immediately started interrogating her.
V&T: "When" Vega: "7:00- 10:00pm" V&T: "Where" Vega: "Movie theater and she I don't know where else." V&T: "What" Vega: "Dinner and a movie" V&T: "Last question: Who?" Vega "Goten"
At this last answer her whole family stopped eating and just looked at her, waiting for an explanation.
"He asked me out at my party yesterday," Vega said.
"But he's 23," Bra finally blurted out.
Trunks and Vegeta just continued to stare at her. But Bulma went back to eating
"Goten as in Goten?" Trunks asked.
"Yes," Vega said trying to act normal, "Do you have a problem with him and me dating?"
To this both Trunks and Vegeta responded "Yes!"
"Calm down," said Bulma, "Just let her go." ____________________________________________________________________________ __________
It was 6:45. Vega was beginning to wonder if she should go or not. Vegeta still looked unhappy and Trunks was still shocked by the fact that his little sister and his best friend were going out. She thought that maybe it was a cruel prank. At seven Goten arrived dressed in his usual clothes and Vega was glad that she had decided to wear the casual, weighted clothes that Goku and Chi-Chi gave her.
As she walked in the room she heard Trunks ask, "Are you sure u want to do this? She is my little sister you know."
Vega didn't hear anything but she thought that he nodded. Vegeta walked next to Vega as she came out. Glaring at Goten the whole way. Vega wasn't sure but she thought he was still glaring as she and Goten flew off together. The date went pretty uneventfully until he dropped he off at her house. At this point both Trunks and Vegeta came out and glared at them until Goten flew off. Without a goodnight kiss as Trunks noticed gladly.
