Ch. 14: An encounter of the princely kind.


Note: Be prepared to be amazed. Warning this chapter is a little
steamy.




Jeri woke up the next morning fully expecting to pick up her training.
She stretched and was about to go take a bath when she noticed the
time. It was 8:45. She had over slept.
For the first time in over a year she had overslept.

She thought, 'Why didn't Mr. Piccolo wake me up?'

She got her answer when she saw that her sensei was still asleep on
the couch.

'Looks like I'm not the only one who slept in this morning. Oh, well.
I guess I'd better wake him up.'

It wasn't often Jeri woke up before her sensei, but when she did....
Well let's just say he's about to get a rude awakening.

Jeri quietly walked over to the couch her sensei slept on, crouched
down, and blew in his ear.

He woke up with a jolt.

"Ahh!"

He about strangled Jeri for her antics, but decided against it and
said, "Grrr.. Go take your shower."
_____________________________________________________________________

Jeri nodded and left her teacher to himself. She entered the bathroom
and turned on the shower to let it heat up. Locking the door she
stripped and got into the shower. As she began washing her long hair she
let her mind wander.
She thought, 'Things have really changed in my life. I went from an
ugly, wallflower, nobody to a lady of grace and exceptional strength.
I'll never have to worry about someone raping me cause I can kick just
about everyone's butt. Plus Mr. Piccolo will kill anyone who lays hands
on me the wrong way. A year ago if someone had told me I'd be living a
dream I'd have called that person crazy. I have a wonderful life with
wonderful friends. This is my world and I'd rather die than leave it.'
She finished her shower quickly and got out. Wrapping a towel around
herself she peaked out the bathroom, looked both ways down the hall,
and pitter-pattered down the hall towards her room. About halfway to her
room Jeri ran right into a fuming saiyan prince. She clung to her
towel as the momentum form the collision caused the both of them to fall to
the ground.

Vegeta was back on his feet instantly with a large ki blast in his
hand. The blast was promptly dispersed as his dark eyes fell upon the
female before him. Her auburn hair was unbound and flowed around her and
on the floor. His eyes roamed her body. Her full breasts could be
seen despite the towel wrapped tightly around her body. Her once slim,
shapeless body was now curved in all the right places with a flat stomach
and gently rounded hips. Her long, shapely legs were crossed in front
of her, but were not hidden in any way. His eyes then snapped up to
her face. Flawless skin the color of lily petals, full pouty lips, large
expressive emerald eyes...
He slowly, hesitantly offered her his hand and helped her up. A
beautiful blush crept up on her face as she adjusted the towel around her
body.

Though she was embarrassed she still held on to her pride.

She said, "Gomen nasi, Vege-sama."

She held her head up high as she silently began walking away.

It wasn't long before Vegeta started following after her. He couldn't
stand it anymore. The smell was driving him crazy. As if that wasn't
bad enough she just had to walk around in a towel. It was distracting.
He'd been teased to his limit and he'd be damned if he let her get away
with it.

Jeri was almost to her room when she was suddenly slammed into the
wall by none other than Vegeta.

He pinned her hands above her head, rendering her helpless.

Her breath began coming in short gasps as he inched his way closer to
her. She was scared.

Vegeta's mind was reeling with sensations and feelings. He inhaled
deeply, getting the unconcealed scent of jasmine from the female. His
actions were being done on automatic as his mind tried to regain control.
When Jeri began struggling against him he lost it completely. A deep
growl reverberated from his throat as he pushed her farther into the
wall and claimed her lips with his.
The whole world seemed to stop in that one, soul-searing kiss. After
a moment he pushed himself all the way against her and deepened the
kiss.

She wasn't struggling anymore.

Everything was on instinct between the saiyan and the half-saiyan.
Vegeta pulled back enough to be able to reach her neck and was about to
claim her as his mate when someone knocked him off of her.

Jeri clutched her towel tightly and slumped to the floor.

A very feral snarl erupted from the saiyan prince as he whirled around
to face the person who dared come between him and his intended mate.

Piccolo was that person. The Namek-jin stood poised above Jeri. His
onyx eyes were filled with rage.

It didn't register in the saiyan's mind that Piccolo's kind were
asexual or that he was Jeri's sensei. All he knew was that the Namek had
interfered with him.

Piccolo was far from being able to think straight himself. He
considered Jeri his daughter and so he protected her from the likes of Vegeta.

Suddenly the two males flew at one another in a flurry of fists and
kicks. Piccolo didn't stand a chance.

Jeri knew she had to stop them before one of them got hurt.

Bulma heard the commotion and came out of her room to investigate.
Seeing the two warriors locked in a full out battle Bulma yelled,
"Goku! Goku come quick!"

The Earth raised saiyan appeared instantly from his room downstairs.
(Everyone stayed the night.) When he saw what was happening he jumped
into the fray and separated the two.

Holding the struggling Vegeta in a full nelson he said, "Vegeta! Let
it go! He won't hurt her! Let it go!"(He's referring to rage.)

By now Gohan had arrived on the scene and had knocked his mentor to
the ground and kept him there.

So much raw power radiated from the two that they had soon dislodged
their captors.

When the two drew back to fire ki blasts at one another Jeri rushed
between them, held up her arms, and said, "Dragon Shield!"(She's got a
housecoat on now courtesy of Bulma.)

Two beams of silver light shot out of the female's small hands,
circled around the two fighters, and stopped them from attacking anymore.
When the light cleared it revealed that the once fighting warriors were
now bound by miniature eternal dragons the same color as the light that
had once shown on them.

Jeri floated up to her sensei, forced him to look her in the eyes, and
talked to him telepathically. His arms instantly went limp at his
sides as he regained control of himself.

Vegeta's fierce will had finally allowed him to control himself and he
now waited to be released.

Jeri cancelled her attack and helped her injured sensei to the ground.

Vegeta just watched her.

Piccolo had never felt this weak before. His energy was low and he
had to lean into Jeri to remain upright.

Jeri turned to Vegeta and said, "I want you to know that I'm never
speaking to you again. You're such an idiot. Nameks aren't territorial,
but they do defend the young like wolves. Mr. Piccolo is like my
father and guards me as such. If you ever try to hurt him again... I'll
kill you."

Vegeta's mouth hung open. She was infuriating, but she still made his
blood boil. He then went to take a cold shower to shake the effects
that the female's scent had had on his body. He also needed some time to
think.





That's it for now.
