" GOOD MORNING WEST CAPITAL CITY, A PERFECT MORNING TO HIT THE WAVES AT THE BEACH, ALTHOUGH A BIT DRY, BUT NOTHING A GOOD SOAK IN THE OCEAN WONT SOLVE AND NOW WITH THE LATEST HIT FROM LINKIN PARK " THIS IS MY DECEMBER" TO COOL YOU OFF" blared the radio.

The sizzling of bacon (AN: yummy bacon) and the splutter of the coffee machine as well as the humming of the GR in the background filtered through the air. Bulma at the stove flipping pancakes while humming to the beat.

" Damn those bottomless stomachs" muttered Bulma as she flipped the 200th pancake.

"If this goes on there will be a food crises," she giggled.

"All done" she eyed the enormous amounts of food on the table "Now to call vegeta and get the presents"

It was a tradition in the Briefs house that half the gifts would be given before the birthday and the rest on the birthday, but due to amount of work Bulma had to pull off she decided that all of the gifts will be given at breakfast. " VEGETA GET YOUR OBNOXIOUS SELF IN HERE, BREAKFASTS READY" shouted Bulma.

" WOMAN!!! KEEP THAT BELLY ACHING YOU CALL YOUR VOICE DOWN I'M TRAINING"

"VEGETA, COME IN HERE OR NO BREAKFAST"

"FINE".

You could hear the GR shutting off as vegeta walked in all high and mighty. "Now vegeta honey go get Trunks' presents"

" Damn Women go get them yourself, what do I look like a slave. I'M THE PRINCE OF ALL SAYIANS"

" SHHHHH vegeta you'll wake up Trunks, just get the damn presents well you," hissed bulma

Vegeta growled as he moved to one of the cupboards. Inside were boxes upon boxes of presents from friends and family. Vegeta started to unload the presents into a corner in the kitchen.

" I don't see why you are worried about the brat waking up. He supposed to be awake ages ago to train," stated vegeta well actually he growled.

" Vegeta, it's the boys birthday and all that you can think of is training"

" Hmmph, he must train, he is the future prince of sayians" said vegeta with a pride gleam in his eyes, but masked it quickly. (AN: O_O RUN AWAY VEGETA IS PROUND OF TRUNKS!!!)

Bulma saw that gleam and beamed at her husband " Fine, Fine, I get it all you sayians love to fight." Vegeta smirked, but was rewarded with bulma screeching his son's name. " TRUNKS, BREAKFAST!"

"WOMEN!" shouted vegeta as he tried to stop the ringing in his ear.

"Hmmmph" said bulma as she turned her interest to the stove

Minutes past and no Trunks

" TRUNKS VEGETA BRIEFS, GET DOWN NOW OR YOUR DAD WELL EAT UP YOUR BREAKFAST' shouted Bulma Still no answer.

Bulma heads to the stair on her way she slapped vegetas hands way as they were reaching for the pancakes.

He growls at her, but she ignores him.

Bulma's P.O.V

'Trunks sleeps like a tone of bricks, maybe I should have send vegeta instead' thought bulma as she reached Trunks door.

She turned the knob slowly her head peaked in " Trunks" she said softly.

Her eyes widened a bit, she opened the door fully and came in. The room was just like any other boys room. A bit messy filled with toys, action figure, comics and in Trunks case books. His bed looked to be slept in.

' He might be in the shower'

A gust of dry wind hit bulma in her face. The window was open as the curtains swayed on the hot wind.

' Why in world would Trunks leave the window open it's steaming outside' She moved to close the window just as a gust of hot wind blew through the room and scattering a few papers.

' I should tell him off for leaving the window open'

Unnoticed by her, a piece of folded paper floated gently down as it landed directly at her feet.

'I better call him from the shower' as she turned she noticed the piece of paper, kneeling down. She picked it up.

'I better tell him to clean up his room too'.

Out of curiosity she unfolded the paper and read it. Bulma stopped in her tracks

Time ceased. Nothing moved, as her mind absorbed the words.

Suddenly she snapped from her trance and read the letter again. She shook here head not believing, tears began to trickle down her face.

"Trunks, No" she whispered.

Then she screamed. "NNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" And landed on her knees sobbing, clutching the letter to her chest near her heart.

Vegeta P.O.V

Vegeta leaning back in his chair, arms cross and a deep frown etched on his face.

'Stupid onna *growl* who does she thing she is? I'm the PRINCE of ALL saiyans'

The radio was still blaring out loud and Vegeta had to control himself from destroying it 'No use in destroying it, the women will be screaming for days for her damn contraption'

*GROWL* his stomach churned

'STUPID WOMEN HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO CALL THE BRAT'

He glared at the stairs and kept a hold reign on his temper. Seconds turned to minutes as a twitch on his left eye became visible.

*GROWL*

'THAT DOES IT NO ONE KEEPS THE SAIYN PRINCE WAITING'

He leaned forward reaching for the stack of pancakes. His fingers barely touching them when earth-shattering scream filled with anguish tore the air.

"NNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO"

He jerked his hands way, hunger forgotten. Shock written across his dark features. It took him a mere second to register that it was his mate screaming. As a wave of fear, anguish and sorrow washed over him through his bond.

He sped through the maze like hallways of capsule corp.. Trying to reach his mate mentally, but all he found were jumbled up thoughts and emotion, which scared him. His mate had a powerful mind and to see it jumbled up proved something was wrong nothing fazed her. Suddenly he caught a single word "Trunks". His heart fell to his stomach "Trunks" he whispered, as he tried to search his son's Ki in the complex.

Nothing.

Vegeta's fears doubled.

'No it can't be'. Anger replaced fear as he doubled his speed vowing that who ever hurt his son will die a slow gruesome death.

He reached Trunks door and ripped it from its hinges in a fit of rage, ready to blast anyone who dared to lay a hand on his family.

Normal View

There on the floor lay the crumbled form of his wife/mate sobbing almost hysterically. Vegeta scanned the room looking for possible intruders or his son, but he found nothing. The room looked normal a bit messy but normal. His eyes settled at his mate. Approaching her quietly he kneeled beside her. Raising his hands and stroked her hair gently and took in his arms embracing her. .

Bulma clutched onto Vegeta's shirt like a lifeline, burying here face in his hard chest sobbing loudly.

Vegeta whispering softly trying to calm here down.

"Women, what happened?"

"Trunks------hee-e-----ii---s---gone" cried bulma

"Women, his probably at Kakkarot's house so stop your wailing"

"No----he's gone-----no---he" fresh tears spilling from her eyes.

She raised the crumbled letter placing it in his hands.

Vegeta shot a puzzled glance at his wife. He smoothed out the letter and read the words that cut through his soul. These words that well forever reside in his heart, an awful remind of what they have lead their son to believe.

************************************************************************ Dear father, mother

I'm sorry. Sorry for everything. For not begin the best son you have. For not begin as good and great as HIM. I'm sorry. I can't stay. I'm leaving. Maybe when I'm stronger and better I'll come back, maybe. I love you both.

Do you love me?

Love

Trunks

************************************************************************

"------Left" whispered bulma as she clutched onto Vegeta, burying her face in his chest as a fresh wave of tears assaulted.

Vegeta crushed the letter in his hand. Closing his eyes tightly he embraced his mate. His rugged face twisted in anguish as his heart wept. (AN: *SNIFF*)
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////The Night Before////////////////////////////////////////////////

A sole figure sprinted through the dark forest, dodging trees and nocturnal animals that ventured out in search of food. They eyed the disturbance. Heads poking out of holes in trees and the ground, rustling through bushes and tree tops. They never saw a strange begin such as it before that is not counting the humans that ventured in the forest to pick its fruits. No, this begin was different, it had lavender hair and was fast; yes this creature was very interesting to the animals.

Suddenly the creature stopped and surveyed its surroundings, cause the animals to jump and scurry to the protection of their homes and holes.

Trunks turned around eyeing the bushes and trees.

'Just animals' he thought and continued walking.

His destination a village deep in the forest, which a handful of people know about. He discovered it during one day while exploring.

Trunks knows his way around almost all of the forest in the continent, hanging out with Goten does have its advantages, although Goten doesn't know about this place. That is because; Trunks tend to wander further in the forest while Goten stays behind in fear of going against his mother's wishes.

The village was located in the Jade forest, which got its name from the jade mines scattered through out it. The village which is also called Jade village is the only village in the forest so its kind of cut-off from rest of the world. The village guards the entrance to the deeper part of the forest where the trees are so packed together that the suns rays barley reach its floor. Beside the village is one of the deepest and still mined jade mine.

At first he decided to go to uninhabited forest, but thought against it. He surely will have run into Piccolo the Namekei who seems to like the solitary atmosphere of the forest. Anyways he needed some place to lay low and Jade village was the perfect place.

He watched the midnight sky as the stars seemed to play hide-and-go- seek between the tree leaves as he walked. 'It's getting late, I should camp some where' And by luck he came to a huge tree with one of it's huge roots curving upwards creating an effective shelter.

A sad smile graced the boy's features as he remembered how his friend would have liked to come with him, but no Goten deserves to be with his family that loves him for what he is.

Trunks shock his head shaking the remaining thoughts and memories of his childhood home and friend.

'Must let go'

Trunks felt the tears, but he willed them down. He will not cry.

Trunks walked over to the shelter and grinned when he found a bed of dead leaves. 'Found my bed, now to make me comfortable'

Using his bag as a pillow he patted down the leaves and made himself comfortable. He wrapped his jacket tightly around him as the blanket of sleep covered him taking him into dreamland. (AN: AWWWW)
