Chapter 19
~
Vegeta could only watch her limp body float down like a feather. He ran up and caught her before she hit the ground. "Woman?" he whispered shaking her lightly. 'That couldn't have killed her. there is no way? She's a Sayain now!'
He was about to set her down when she stirred slightly in her sleep. "G- Goku?" she mumbled barley opening one eye.
"Woman it's me, Vegeta" he reasoned setting her down against a tree.
"Where's Goku!?" she tried to yell ignoring his
"Kakkurot's, dead remember" Vegeta said softly back.
"Kakkurot?" Bulma opened one eye slightly and moaned "Who's that? Who are you?"
"Woman, I'm Vegeta remember! Kakkurot IS Goku! What did you do? Lose you're mem. FUCK!" Vegeta cursed eyeing her up and down. Her clothes were tattered and her hair slightly frizzy.
Bulma looked over at Vegeta mulling over what she had just heard "Kakkurot is dead, but Kakkurot is Goku?" she asked trying to get her thoughts strait then it hit "Where's Goku!" she tried to yell but her throat was to dry and her energy drained.
"Woman, he's dead! Been dead for over a year!" Vegeta exclaimed extending his arms out to his sides.
"He was just a kid." she choked, letting tears flow down her face and opened her mouth to speak again but was cut off.
"Woman Kakkurot is about 26 years old! He died fighting his brother Radditz a little over a year ago!"
"How can that be he's three year younger then me! I'm sixteen!" her voice cracked.
"Woman. I- I don't know what to say. Y-You lost your memory apparently because you're not sixteen; you're 28" Vegeta said scooping her up in his arms cradling her like a baby. "Come on lets get you to a hospital"

RING!
RING!
ChiChi stirred in her sleep. Yawning she reached out to pick up the phone that was located on the desk to the side of her.
"Moshi Moshi" ChiChi said into the receiver.
"Is this the Kami House?" Came a gruff response.
ChiChi grew nervous of the mysterious of the mysterious tone and decided to just hang up. She was about to place the receiver down the voice spoke again. "It concerns Bulma" A shiver ran up and down her spine, trembling she asked into the phone "Whom is this?"
"I don't think that matters right now. I called to inform you that Bulma has suffered from a head injury and is currently in West Capital Corporate Hospital" the stoic voice continued.
"Who are you?" ChiChi whispered frantically into the phone "And how do you know Bulma?"
"I'll explain when you get to the Hospital" the voice somewhat softened.
"But-?" ChiChi went to protest but was interrupted.
"Oh, and make sure you don't bring anyone she didn't know before she was sixteen" the voice continued a hint of humor in it.
ChiChi managed to get herself to ask, "Who should I look for when I get to the hospital?" she was slightly afraid to ask although she wasn't quit sure why.
"You'll notice some familiar faces" was all the reply that she got and then she heard a single CLICK.
She placed the receiver gently on the hook and yelled at the top of her lungs "BABA, ROSHI, DAD GET IN BULMA'S AIR CRAFT!" Then she rounded out of the room like lightning and bounding down the stairs like a rabbit in the middle of an Easter festival grabbing her jacket that had been carelessly laid on the foot of the stairs.
"ChiChi what's is wrong?" The Ox King asked frantically.
"I'll explain on the way now get in the car!" she ordered and looked around "Where is that damn pig, Turtle, and Puar?" she asked scribbling down a note so they would know where they are when they came back from wherever they were. She ran out front to see that her father had already started the plane and everyone side from Paur, Oolong, and Turtle were safely strapped in their seats.

Vegeta figured he should go find the weaklings. He went to press a button on his scouter to locate them but instead all he got was air. He felt around his ear and cursed himself. He had left the scouter in the forest. He dragged his feet exiting the hospital and when he finally was outside he looked around. No one was around he figured it would be okay just to 'take off' from there.
~
"Do you feel that?" Piccolo asked opening his eyes from his meditation. He unwounded his feet from its usual Indian-style format and settled his feet on the ground "The fade in Bulma's Ki?" he continued.
"Yeah Vegeta's Ki as been acting strange to one minute it's frustration then next it's almost content" Tein interjected.
Nappa grew very frustrated with this whole 'sensing' ordeal spoke up "If you baka's can sense where Bulma and Vegeta are then lets find them already!" Nappa cleared his throat and looked down at the ground blushing slightly.
Krillen who was trying to actually pin-point Bulma and Vegeta's exact location figured that Bulma was around West Capital Corporate Hospital and Vegeta well was... coming their way for a moment but then took an abrupt turn toward the West where Mount Everest should be, or should have been.
Krillen tried to put two and two together. Bulma's Ki had dropped dramatically now she was near the hospital if his calculations were correct, but where to Vegeta was going he had no idea.
"Guys... Bulma's Ki had dropped dramatically right?" Krillen asked getting the chorus reply of "Right"
He continued "But if you try to pin-point her location she is where the West Capital Hospital is?" Krillen stated more then asked.
Piccolo wondered "And where's Vegeta?"
"Around mount Everest somewhere, although I have no clue as to why." Krillen shrugged "I think we should go find Bulma first she might know about where Vegeta is"
"Then it's agreed, we find Bulma, then try to find Vegeta" Nappa said walking out of the cave blasting off "Last one there is a rotten egg!"
Gohan squealed and took off giggling like a schoolgirl. Krillen, Tein, and Choutzu followed immediately. "You think it was a circus" Piccolo mumbled dragging behind yawning "It's dejia-vu all over again"
~
"Zarbon! What is taking Nappa and Vegeta so long! I've already lost Radditz on that stupid mud-ball, I do not need to lose two more of my top purgers!" Freesia boomed crushing the glass of wine he held in his hands.
Zarbon got down on his left knee and bowed his head "Master Freesia, do you suggest we make contact with them to find out the complications"
"Do what you must!" Freesia ordered "Just make sure that Vegeta gets back here ALIVE!"
"And Nappa sir?" Zarbon asked keeping his cool although it was hard with the spoiled youngest son of King Cold.
"I really don't care, dead or alive. It doesn't matter; he is too moronic for my army. I don't know what King Vegeta was thinking when he made him Commander of the Sayain army. But it just goes to show you that idiots perish and the whole Sayain race was just a bunch of monkeys... in other words idiots" Freesia cackled evilly.
"Very well, Lord Freesia" Zarbon said getting up and flipping his long green braid over his shoulder. "We shall make contact" and with that he left, leaving Freesia with his sick fantasy of how much he wanted to re- live THAT day.

Hey Merry Christmas everyone! Okay remember Bulma told Vegeta about when she was 16. Bulma left her aircraft at the Kami house after she got done shopping. Just to refresh your memory.
