Okay V.J. this chapter is made on your recommendations. :). and Lyss003, I know I stick at lemons, told ya guys. Now I'm going to my little corner and cry my little eyes out. Boohoo! Oh well, Life goes on. ;) But I am glad you guys like it, I was getting a little discouraged. Sorry for worrying you guys. This Chapter was suppose to be out about a month ago. But Fanfiction.Net went out, I went on vacation for a week to Canada (a week of utter hell). Then I got heat sickness from being dragged around in 100 degree weather with no drink or anything. So that was a week of being unable to hold down anything but the smallest amounts of liquid. Then school came, and that puts me into depression. So you guys may have to bug me to get anything done. I do have about two or three chapters written, but not typed.

Lunar Eclipse

Chapter 25: Involuntary Skinny-Dipping

Vegeta woke up and stared down at the little female beside him. He couldn't blame her for what happened, and not really him. It had to be the wolf instincts. Not that this wasn't a good thing. And it wasn't like her was going to tell her that. He reached out his senses to see who was about. He could sense Nick and Mrs. Briefs over near the kitchen, Dr. Briefs over in the lab, and Kakkarott was in the wilderness to the south with Gohan and Piccolo. Krillian, Roshi, Oolong, Puaru, Yamcha, and the turtle were on Kame Island. He could sense Bulma's ki too, and he marveled at how high it had gotten since she was bitten.

So had his. His temper had became shorter in some ways than others and vice-versa. He was constantly put on edge by his instincts, never really knowing when they would push him into an action. But he always liked a good challenge. And 'conquering' this loud mouthed female had been one. He couldn't exactly say conquered, because in a way she had conquered him too. Stalemate? Possibly.

Was this an instinctual thing, or was there something more to this little fling. He wasn't sure what he wanted it to be. He had been taught that emotions made you weak, especially love. But Kakkarott loved and expressed emotions vividly, and he was now a Super Saiyan! He had said it was both mental and emotional upset that had caused him to turn. But hadn't he had enough? Under Frieza's rule he had been put through hell, had his planet and people destroyed, turning him into the being he was now. Ruthless and cold.

But what did he care what Frieza had taught him? He had lied to him, every word, every breath he took. So what if he did lie about being emotional? What if they did make you stronger? Nah, that was foolish. Emotions is what made someone run right into a battle blindly. Emotions caused heart break and pain, sometimes worse than physical pain.

He looked down at her again. But....this felt so right. He lowered his head and nuzzled her neck. She moaned softly, exposing her neck more.

"Wake up onna."

She shifted and moaned something about 'another five minutes'. He smirked. Well she was going to have to wake up anyways. Mrs. Briefs did make his breakfast, but she needed to fix the GR. He moved back and she slid from her side to her back, exposing her mid drift. A mischievous glint in his eye would have been a warning to her if she had been awake, but sadly for her she was asleep. He picked her up, threw her over his shoulders and walked out of the med lab, Bulma screaming and pounding the whole way. He walked outside in the garden area and unceremoniously threw her in the pool. She bobbed to the surface, spitting and sputtering like a wet cat.

"VEGETA! You SON OF A...."

"I told you to get up." He broke her off calmly. Her face changed to the brightest red imaginable.

"You go fix the damn machine yourself Mr. High and Mighty Prince of the Monkeys."

"And I'm proud of it, woman." That caught her off guard, usually he'd get all offensive if she mentioned monkey in anything, but now he seemed calm, as if he hadn't heard her. What was up with him. "Besides, woman, do you want me messing with one of your machines? I could accidentally mix up some wires and blow up this pathetic excuse for a planet. I'd just make sure I was off of it before it went." Bulma scowled not impressed in the least.

She swam to the ladder and started getting out, that's when she noticed that it was a little too breezy.

"Vegeta! You brought me out here naked!" Vegeta just smirked and walked back into the house, phasing out her screams and squeals.

Nick was practicing magic. A little dark and a little white, perfecting them as he went. He knew magic alone wouldn't stop his brother. No, Lupine was more powerful in that area. What else could they use to their advantage. Well, the guys could use their ki to help them fight, fly, and what not. Maybe he could get one of them to teach him. Bulma could be taught too, she had a high enough ki signature now.

Vegeta of course would be the one that would most likely train them. He was here constantly and didn't have a nagging wife bothering him about being out training all the time. Well, he did have Bulma, but she seemed to understand that his Saiyan blood called for battle. He pitied poor Gohan. The little guy was going to grow up to be a nerd at this rate. (No offense to Gohan! He turns out okay!)

He felt Vegeta's ki coming toward him, fluctuating then disappearing completely. Vegeta obviously didn't know about his stealth power. Of course he never really thought about teaching it too them. But them not knowing would be a major disadvantage. He got an idea and headed for the last place he felt Vegeta's ki. As he got closer to his ki he also realized Bulma was with him. And from volume of the voices coming from their general direction, Vegeta had royally pissed off Bulma.

He decided to keep out of side, peering secretively out from the sliding doors leading to the pool. Bulma was standing right in front of Vegeta.....completely NUDE! He quickly swirled away from the window and rushed down the hall. If Vegeta or Bulma saw him...

He felt something tickle his nose. He wiped his nose with the back of his hand, noticing blood. He let out an exasperated sigh and trudged off to clean up. He probably should wait a while before confronting Vegeta. Not so much for Vegeta to cool off, but to allow that sudden unpleasant tightness in his pants to fade away.

Nick waited until around dinner time. Vegeta usually came in at this time to grab a bite to eat (which a bite to a Saiyan was enough to feed a whole ballroom of people) and occasionally to watch the tube. He found him in the living room, watching an action/adventure movie, munching on a whole turkey. Vegeta looked back and glared at Nick.

"What do you want inu?" He growled, through a full mouth. Amazing enough no food came spitting out.

"I have a proposition for you." Nick said, find his courage was quickly deserting him.

"And what would that be, hmmm...." Vegeta said sarcastically, eyeing the fidgeting werewolf down.

"I want you to train Bulma and me to use ki." Vegeta's usually perfectly aloof expression was replaced by surprise. Of course, Nick could have imagined it...

"And in return?" Nick took a deep breath to calm and compose himself. It doesn't help much when someone as dangerous as Vegeta was eye balling you like a starving wolf staring down a lamb.

"I'll train you to go stealth." He cursed his voice for coming out so squeaky. But he hadn't stuttered. Like it really mattered, he thought as he waited for a reaction from Vegeta. The Saiyan just smirked even more evilly, if that was even comprehensible.

"Stealth?" He said with mock interest.

"Remember when they attacked and you couldn't feel their ki? That's stealth. You don't have to lower your ki to hide it, just mask it." He had said that too fast, but Vegeta looked intrigued and seemed to be thinking it over.

"What else have you got hiding under your tail?" he asked. Nick shook his head and smiled.

"You don't want to know." Vegeta glared at him, Nick flinched visibly.

"If it helps me to defeat Kakkarott and Lupine, yes I do." Vegeta's tone was deadly, Nick was treading on dangerous ground.

"You're really hung up on that whole 'I will destroy you Kakkarott' thing, aren't you." Wrong thing to say. Vegeta glared, ki blast forming as he stepped forward. Nick stepped back, making sure not to make any sudden movements.

Suddenly Vegeta's anger faded away, replaced by the infamous smirk. Nick definitely didn't like this new development, nor any of the thoughts that Vegeta could possibly be thinking with that gleam in his eyes. The ki ball faded out and Vegeta moved out of his fighting stance, crossing his arms.

*Hmmmph* "Fine, inu, I will train you and the blue-haired wench." I 'm definitely going to regret this, Nick thought, cringing.

"When do we start?" Vegeta smirked and got up.

"As soon as the woman fixes the GR. We can't start without her, can we?"

Okay, the next chapters will mainly deal with the hatching of the dragonetts. But they pay somewhat of a role in this story, and definitely in the new one, a sequel to this one. So bear with me.
