I'll be writing about her past 2 months as we go along. Some stuff will be
included in this chapter. Don't forget to review!
Things Gone Wrong
Chapter 2: Learning What Happened
Bulma walked to class, still in a state of shock, when she suddenly heard her name being called from behind.
"Bulma wait up." Vegeta said as he quickly caught up to her.
"What do you want?" Bulma asked.
"I wanted to know if you still remember your classes that you had. You remember that we had first period together?" Vegeta asked.
"Well, it's just a little strange. I don't really remember all of my classes, but I have my schedule. I just remember the classes I had back at my other school." Bulma replied, remembering her group of friends that were just like her.
"So what was the school like?" Vegeta asked curiously.
"It was trashed, not clean like this school. Nothing was new, and the teachers hated being there. I guess that's all that you can expect from South Side. Even though the paint and wallpaper are peeling off of the walls, they won't re-paint or anything. Probably cause they couldn't afford it." Bulma said remembering the other school.
"Sounds kinda shitty." Vegeta stated.
"Well, yeah, it was, but I don't seem to mind. In fact, I liked it. You don't feel bad about littering, and no one judged you. I actually wanted to stay there, but it's not my choice." Bulma said slightly sad.
"So why did come home in a cop car and cuffs?" Vegeta asked, just as they entered their classroom full of busy talking students.
"Cause no one knew who I really was, and when Officer Shar found out he took me home. He's kind of a friend. I see him all of the time, cause of all the crimes going on." Bulma replied.
"Well didn't they know who you were by your name? Everyone knows your name." Vegeta said sitting down next to her in a desk.
"I didn't go by Bulma Briefs. I went by Kimi Anderson." Bulma said.
"Anderson?" Vegeta questioned.
"Yeah, that's the last name of the family that I lived with. I pretended as if my friend Jen was my sister, and her parents were my parents, that is, until they were killed by a mob." Bulma said sadly.
At that time Chi-Chi and Goku walked in.
"Hey Bulma! How are ya?" Chi-Chi asked sitting in the desk behind Bulma in the back of the class.
When Bulma didn't reply, she got the feeling that she jumped into the middle of a conversation.
"So did you live alone after that?" Vegeta asked.
"No, I had to go to a foster family. I lived with them for a month, and they were pretty kewl. My foster mom worked for a big business, and my foster dad worked at the St. Luke's hospital." Bulma replied.
Chi-Chi and Goku looked shocked.
"You lived with a foster family?" Goku asked.
Bulma just nodded.
"I heard what happened in the nurse's office." Vegeta said, not really knowing why he said it.
Bulma looked at him slightly embarrassed. "What did you hear?" She asked, not quiet convinced.
"I heard plenty. I don't think that you want me to mention everything, do you? Vegeta asked.
Bulma shook her head furiously. "No way!" She snapped.
Chi-Chi eyed Bulma suspiciously. "What are you hiding from us?" Chi-Chi asked.
"Nothing." Both Bulma and Vegeta said at the same time.
Goku shook his head in a displeasing way, "Fine keep your secrets." He said slightly saddened that Bulma, his friend, would tell Vegeta something, but not him.
"Sorry Goku, it's just that, well, I don't want anyone to know about it, Vegeta wasn't actually supposed to know about it." Bulma said glaring at Vegeta.
"It's okay Bulma, we understand." Chi-Chi said reassuringly.
After class.
"Bulma wait up. Can I talk to you alone." Vegeta asked, eying Chi-Chi and Goku.
"It's okay we've gotta go to class anyway." Chi-Chi said a little angry, and grabbed Goku's arm, dragging him with her.
"What is it Vegeta?" Bulma asked, half knowing why he wanted to talk to her.
"That discussion I overheard, was all of it true?" Vegeta asked, not looking at her directly in the eye.
Bulma sighed, "Yes, it is, but I have to go to the doctor's to make sure 100%."
"So you were rapped?" Vegeta asked in a low whisper.
A tear formed in Bulma's eye.
~Flashback~
Bulma was walking down the street with Jen happily talking about going to the movies later on.
"Sure I'll meet you at the theaters Jen! What time?" Bulma asked.
"How about in 2 hours, after dark?" Jen asked.
"Sounds good! See ya later!" Bulma replied as they parted ways. Jen headed to the store, as Bulma headed to a friends house, passing several stores along the way.
Bulma kept walking, and about 10 minutes after, she felt as if someone was following her. She hesitantly turned around, and saw that no one was behind her. Dark crept in and the only light she had were the streetlights.
Bulma sighed, 'I'm losing my mind! Thinking that someone is following me. Sheesh." Bulma thought to herself.
Bulma turned back around in the direction she was headed and was faced with a man. He looked poor and un-clean. His long brown jacket was shredded at the ends. His face was dark and he grinned with lust. Bulma backed up slowly as he reached out to her.
She turned and started running away from him, but he was already too close, he grabbed her from behind, jumping on her, and she fell to the ground.
"Get off of me!" Bulma yelled.
He did as he was told, but not because she told him to. He yanked her up by her hair and forced her in an alley, where he brutally rapped her.
~End of Flashback~
"Yes, I was rapped." Bulma replied quietly, wiping the fallen tear.
"And he went to jail?" Vegeta asked, already knowing the answer.
Bulma smirked, "Yeah, he did."
~Flashback~
Bulma sat in the stand where she was being testified as a victim.
"Can you point out who you have described as the rapist?" The man asked.
Tears were streaked all over her face, from previously describing the gruesome details of what had happened.
She pointed to the man that sat in the front with the shredded long brown coat and dark face. He growled as she looked at him nervously.
"He did it! He's guilty!" Bulma yelled in a mad sob.
"I am not! Where's the proof?!" He lied in anger.
"My body is the proof! You took advantage of me!" Bulma screamed while crying.
Later on.
"The jury finds this man guilty." The judge said slamming the hammer on it's plate. (Whatever it's called. Sorry, I don't know much about this sorta stuff.)
"No! You bitch! I will get out, and when I do, I will come after you!" He yelled, while the cops struggled to put the handcuffs on him.
"That is enough sir! Take him away." The judge said standing up.
Jen and her parents held Bulma as they watched the rapist being dragged away.
~End of Flashback~
"Lets go to class." Bulma said remembering her troubled past 2 months.
Vegeta just nodded while he followed her.
