We Forgot About Bulma!

-o-o-o-o-o

What do you call a cat with a hang-over?

-o-o-o-o-o-

Goku stared at the door of the apartment that would soon be his home; if he was lucky. In shining gold letters on there door there was a large '42', telling Goku he was at the right room. Looking both ways down the corridor to see that he was not disturbing anyone, Goku knocked on the door.

-o-o-o-o-o-

Yamcha layed back in the messy room. Beer cans and a few rotten plates lay over the floor. -It wasn't that he was messy- or anything- just that Puar had a few of her friends over the night before. Who knew Korin could drink so much?

He took another look at the kitty-catted room and slumped further into his seat. He didn't have enough money to refurnish this time- he was still paying back the bank from a certain explosion of a certain air-car- THANKS to Goku's look-a-like twin, that was.

Just as Yamcha was drifting off, he was startled by a soft knocking at the door. Wondering who it was, he headed towards the sound, and opened his apartment up to see Goku looking depressedlyhim.

"Uh hi Goku- what are you doing here? Man?" Yamcha asked, looking over the solemn man before him.

Goku looked down embarrassed. His hand finding its way behind his head.

" Well. you see um. ChiChi and Vegeta are together- and- um. I kinda' left them to it- you know what I mean?" Goku asked, looking up and hoping with all will that Yamcha understood what he was talking about.

"Agh- Come in and tell me man. Go through it slowly. I need a little detail anyway."

"Ah- thanks." Goku smiled. Stepping into the room and then scrunching up his nose. "What's that smell?" He asked, looking around the small room.

"Would you believe me if I told you it was -ahem- cat sick?"

Goku blinked "Yeah. I guess I would." He trailed off, making his way over to the couch and ridding it of many, many empty cans and bottles.

"So. What this about 'leaving Vegeta and ChiChi to it'? What do you mean by that?" Yamcha prompted, sitting beside the saiyan and stretching himself into the available space.

"Well uh. They're together- you know? I've been away two years anyway. I can't blame her. So I decided to stay away. longer."

"Longer?" Yamcha asked, raising his eyebrows but keeping his voice low. "You mean - you two are divorcing?"

Goku shook his head as a no. "I was clinically dead for a year Yamcha. 'til death do you part' kinda' says it all. We don't need a divorce- and- Gohan officially belongs to ChiChi!" Goku gasped, bringing his hands to his mouth in shock.

"Don't worry man. she'll let you see him. You should see how much she's changed for the better since she got together with Vegeta."

"You mean you knew?" Goku asked, turning his head slightly to look at his long time friend.

"Yeah. Bulma's changed too. She hasn't been to dinner with me since Before the saiyans arrived- I mean it's like she's bolder. WAY bolder- and she's stronger too. She trained of King Kai's with us."

Goku laughed slightly "I know. I was with her, on Yardrat. Goku stated, leaning back in his seat. "You should have seen all the fancy clothes she got- I even brought them back with me. They're still in the space-pod so she should have them by now." Goku smiled.

"Hey Goku man. is there something you're not telling me here?" Yamcha asked. Leaning so his face was in front of Goku's, startling the man.

"Huh? Oh no. nothing important." Goku murmured, eyes turning down in knowing the fact Vegeta was predestined to set him in the gutters.

-o-o-o-o-o-

Trunks scowled as he watched the only recorded clips from the z-senshi's battles. The Saiyan battle- his father and Goku fighting- useless. A few clips of the encounters with the androids- his father shouting something at Gohan- possibly what saved the boy's life before dashing in to battle to loose his own- useless- but inspiring to Vegeta's son. He took the tape out of the recorder, before looking at it and taking it up into his room to rest safely on his shelf- next to his other prized possession; Tapion the sword. A memory of another brave warrior who held true to his father, one that sacrificed his life to eliminate a threat greater then the androids and almost their defeat. Trunks looked up as his mother passed the door.

"What's up Trunks? What have you got there?"

"Um, it's nothing important Mom. hey- do you mind if I talk to you?" Trunks asked, passing a glance down the hallway.

"Sure Trunks- what do you want to talk to me about?" Bulma asked. Moving past her son and sitting on his bed. The lavender haired teen sat down as his mother patted the bed next to herself.

"Well. I'm going back tomorrow- and I was wondering if you could tell me about the past- more specifically what happened before Goku got back to Earth."

"Ah, OK- I guess it will save my past self some trouble. well, lets see now" Bulma raised a hand to her chin "We were on Namek, and it was crumbling up. The whole planet was falling to bits- I was waiting on the spaceship and Gohan had ran off and got himself into trouble. Goku was fighting that ugly white-thing- Fridge? If I remember correctly- and all of a sudden we turned up on Earth -poof!- just like that!" Bulma giggled slightly.

Trunks looked at his mother, soaking up the information on her past. Sure- he'd heard odd bits of it before but never really cared to listen to any of it.

"So lets see. O yes. The Nameks stayed here for a while, and so did your -reluctant- father." Bulma closed her eyes, smiling sadly "You know Trunks. the night you were con-"

Trunks coughed, interrupting her and blushing brightly. Bulma just laughed at the expression on her sons face.

"Yep! That's the face of when I told him I was pregnant!" Bulma laughed, rewarded with an even brighter glow and louder choking sound from her adolescent son.

"Okay, okay. I won't go into detail Trunks. Um- you know the rest right?" Bulma asked her son, whom nodded. He had learnt all about the androids from Gohan. He smiled at his mother thankfully before kissing her on the cheek. Bulma smiled in return.

"Now Trunks- will you pop to the store for me? I need some groceries- and you need to be well-fed and equipped before you go to the past tomorrow- Okay?"

"Okay mom!" Trunks laughed, standing and walking out of the door of his room. Bulma remained on his bed, smiling to herself.

"Good luck, son. but remember what I said. your very presence in the past may have changed something you couldn't even fathom, my child."

-o-o-o-o-o-

"Yamchaaaa! Keep it down!" A high-pitched voice screeched from behind a bedroom door. Yamcha ducked his head down, so it was barely visible over the top of the couch, and Goku followed suit. Puar stepped into the room with blood-shot eyes and tousled blue fur.

"Yamcha!" She complained. "Can you please keep it down? I have a headache! -and why are you hiding behind the sofa?" She shouted, obviously doing it accidentally.

"Uh- tying my shoelaces. Hey Puar? Do you mind if Goku stays here with us? He has no-where else to go." The desert bandit whispered in reply.

"Yes yes fine!" Puar waved it off "But keep it down!" She yelled, before returning to her room.

Yamcha slouched down with a sigh of relief, looking as if he just avoided being hit by a freight train.

"What was that all about?" Goku asked, poking his head over the top of the sofa and looking at the closed wooden door.

Yamcha sighed "Puar's got a hang-over. don't expect a good-nights sleep." he looked at his feet.

"KEEP IT DOWN!" a voice complained from the other room.
