Bulma awoke in a cold sweat, panting for breath, and totally flustered. "What a wild dream" she moaned sitting up using her arms for support. "What happened here?" she asked the nurse noticing she was standing in the doorway, looking around the totally destroyed room.
"You did that" The nurse replied just as confused as Bulma.
"I did..." Bulma started looking around the room.
Before the nurse could reply she was shoved out of the way by ChiChi. "BULMA!" she literally skidded to a stop at her bed. "Are you okay?!"
"You look like my friend ChiChi, only 10 years older though" Bulma said turning her head to the side a little to imply that she was examining her. "Yeah, you really do! You wouldn't happen to be her aunt or anything?"
"Bulma..." ChiChi said taking in a breath "I am ChiChi"
"Nuh -Uh" Bulma said shaking her head "ChiChi is a little girl, she's 13 and lives on that mountain that was on fire and her father is the Ox King" Then the whole group burst through the door. Oolong rolled out from the bottom panting and uttering things about how "They don't treat pigs with proper respect anymore" (A/N: Oolong looked the same, he's a pig!)
"Oolong! Thank Kami! These people are saying that 10 years past since we help ChiChi and her father put out the fire on their mountain 10 years ago when that happened like..." she stopped to think "10 DAYS ago"
Oolong huffed "What are you brain dead? You lost your memory 'remember'" he said putting an emphasis on 'remember'. ChiChi pulled her **Frying Pan of Doom** out of mid air and gave Oolong a good smack for that one.
"You might want to take a look in a mirror, babe" a sexy voice seemed to flow around the room and ring through Bulma's ears. She blushed "And who are you?"
He strutted across the room and stopped at Bulma side and pulled out a small mirror from his back pocket and handed it too her "I'm Yamcha, you probably remember me as the desert bandit though" he smirked and gave her a little wink.
"Do I" she sighed dreamily and looked into the pocket mirror he handed her. 'Great I'm as red as a tomato" she thought and slightly furrowed her eyebrows. Baba's face vaulted, and ChiChi and Roshi exchanged glances, Bulma didn't remember what had happened roughly an hour ago. But Roshi motioned to the women not to inter fear.
She looked up at the people surrounding her bed recognizing everyone dispite the age differences. A few she didn't recognize but she would meet them later. Besides they wouldn't be here if they weren't her friends. But there was one person she DIDN'T see. "Where is the guy with spiky hair that brought me here?"
"Oh that's Vegeta, he's not here right now" Krillen informed.
She nodded 'Vegeta? Where have I heard that name before?' she thought 'If he's the one who brought me here then he's the one who told her that Goku was dead' he eyes welled with tears as she searched the room. There was ANOTHER person she didn't see.
"What's wrong, babe?" Yamcha asked gently placing her hand in his. She looked around again "Where's Son-kun?"
The looming silence didn't help take that burden off her shoulders.

"WHAT!" Freesia slurred obviously drunk from the amount of wine he had that day.
"But Lord Freesia..." Zarbon stuttered motioning with his hands for Freesia to calm down.
"I want them FOUND!" Freesia roared cutting off Zarbon's protest. "Go to Chikyuu-sei yourself bring that piece of pink puddy with you too! Bring Nappa back dead, and Vegeta beaten severely!"
"They said they would be back tomorrow" Dodoria exclaimed.
Freesia narrowed his eyes at Dodoria "Are you defying my order, Dodoria" he hissed in an eerily calm voice.
"No Lord Freesia" Dodoria uttered lowering his head toward the floor.
"Then you both will go and retrieve my Sayains for me" he grinned insanely.
"Yes my Lord" they both replied.
"Good" Freesia cackled "We are in Chikyuu-sei's system if you leave now and take the Elite ship you'll arrive in promptly 2.5 hours. Making it about 9:30 standard time." He finished turning his back toward them looking out the huge glass window at all the stars and planets that were at his fingertips.
"Yes sir" they said rising from their kneeling positions and were about to walk out the door when Freesia spoke up again.
"Do not come back unsuccessful" he said swirling his wine took a sip and crushed it letting it ooze all around his fingers "Because if you do you know your fate"
"We are fully aware" Zarbon spoke hiding the note of fear that was there.

Vegeta sighed. According to his list there were a lot of people he hated. He looked over to the sleeping fawns and the mother who was barely awake. He slid off the rock he was sitting on and walked over to the doe.
He scratched it behind the ears "Looks like I'll be seeing you later" it turned its head to the side, it's big brown eyes shown brightly, slightly shimmering. It licked Vegeta on the cheek. He smirked and gave it one last pat and took off into the night sky not feeling like the mass-murderer he was.
"Which way is that stupid hospital?" he growled. He flew a little faster sending the air behind him in a blaze of blue flames.
'Wonder what the woman is doing right now?' the deprived angel on his right shoulder wondered. Then the little devil on the left snorted 'Why do I even care?'

Tell me what you think. If there's something I need to improve tell me. I have been getting lots of complaints about longer chapters. It's easier for me to keep track of what's going on in the fic if I use shorter chapters.
Happy New Year! 2003... already! Wow, it felt like yesterday we were worried about Y2K LoL!
