"What happened to him?" cried Bulma as she kneeled beside the unconscious
Vegeta. "We were just training and he started loosing power. I'm not sure
what happened but he just fainted." Goku was confused and worried over his
close "friend's" actions.
"I told you it was a bad idea." Sabriel whispered. "He'll be fine, he
pushed himself too hard." King Vegeta whispered back and pulled her into a
corner so the others couldn't hear. "No, this isn't natural, we must remove
it before it kills him!!" she raised her voice a little. "Remember that
time me and Bardock were training and it got a little too intense, this
same exact thing happened to me and I'm fine, just look at me." As a matter
of fact the same thing did happen to him but it wasn't this severe, and
hiding it well enough he too was worried for Vegeta's well being.
"I'm not too sure if I want Vegeta to turn out like you, I mean look at all
these wrinkles!" Sabriel wrinkled her nose in mock disgusted then burst out
laughing at King Vegeta's expression. He shrugged and smirked; "I still
look better than you!" he pointed out the turned on his heel and waltzed
off. Sabriel shook her head and said, "In your dreams."
"Care to explain what that was all about?" Bardock asked and raised a
suspicious eye brow. "Not here, not now." she whispered and walked over to
check on Vegeta. "You guys this is serious, his power level keeps getting
lower and lower." yelled Goku frantically. "Look, he's coming around."
pointed Bulma as Vegeta started to twist and turn.
They all rushed to his side. Sabriel took his hand and said, "Honey, only
four more days and it will all be over." she stroked his sweaty forehead
with a cool washcloth. "I swear if you don't pull through this I will never
forgive you." warned Bulma. "Son, toughen up, you don't want to disgrace
your heritage by being a weakling do you?" demanded King Vegeta in a stern
voice, but when you looked into his eyes there it was, concern.
"All right you need to tell me what happened to him and you need to tell me
now." Bulma was harsh and demanding. "See the necklace Vegeta is wearing?"
asked Sabriel. "Yeah what about it?" sighed Bulma. "Well..."
**10 minutes later they were done explaining to her***
"Kami and you let him do this to himself? You are seriously fucked in the
head!!! You bastard he is your son, it could kill, and you probably don't
even care." she was pissed, even more then she has ever been in her entire
life. "I can't believe you!" she extended her arm back and slapped him as
hard as she could. It left a red mark and actually caused him to bleed.
He wiped the blood that was oozing out of the corner of his mouth, "I do
care, I'm as much worried about him as you are, and I'm sorry." he looked
her right in the eyes. She realized that he truly was. She nodded and
turned back to Vegeta. "I want you to take it off." she said slowly and
softly. "Me too." agreed Sabriel. "I can't, all we can do is leave it, and
pray." King Vegeta put his hand on his only son's shoulder.
"Why not?" Bulma's voice cracked. "It could kill him." Bardock spoke up.
"What happened to my dad?" asked Trunks as he walked in the room with
Goten. "Dad, what's wrong with Uncle Vegeta?" Goten looked up at his dad.
"Trunks your father isn't feeling too good, he'll be ok though." said
Sabriel as she turned and looked at Radditz and Turles, "Hey why don't you
two let your uncles teach you some new moves?" suggested Sabriel. Radditz
and Turles looked surprised, then Radditz spoke up, "Why not, follow us you
two." the four of them walked out into the yard to learn some new tricks.
"Mamma!" Vegeta was delirious and was talking and twisting in his bed.
"She's not dead, I just saw her!" he protested and swatted at the air.
"Who's not dead?" asked Sabriel. "No, don't take her." he yelled. "Vegeta,
who are they taking?" Bulma joined Sabriel in trying to make sense of what
he was talking about... "No, father please, don't hurt her!" he yelled
again and started shaking. "Leave her alone, don't kill her, take me
instead." he was tossing around and sweating with a very high fever.
He sat upright in bed and screamed "NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!" he fell back onto
the bed and drifted off into sleep, his fever reducing and his energy
returning.
