Chapter 5

Authors Note:

Hey, sorry I haven't updated lately, but here I go!

Have fun!

Vegeta stepped to the side and was instantly met with Apiphanie's leg hitting his side.

"Apiphanie, I do not want to fight right now!"

he yelled at her as he skidded along the ground.

Apiphanie went back to normal and starred at Vegeta,

"I'm worried about you Vegeta, something's wrong and you need to figure it out."

Vegeta stood up and glared at her.

Apiphanie continued,

"Well, I know I haven't seen you in how many years, but I know that your of all Saiyan's would never slack off like this without a reason . . ."

Apiphanie sighed and gave Vegeta a pitiful puppy dog look,

"Just pull yourself together soon Vegeta, that's all I ask."

Vegeta watched as she flew off to see how the new groups of new recruits were doing.

'I have to find that woman, she's driving me crazy, I can't shrug the feeling that she's in trouble.'

He told himself.

Bulma waited for Cyanryou to leave the room.

It had been two days and she had only gotten out of bed three times.

All three were with the help of Cyanryou to take her to the bathroom.

'lets see if I can do this now.'

He asked herself.

Bulma swung her legs around the edge of the bed and groaned as a little pain came.

Bulma looked at the door, she heard something moving around.

Wincing, she moved her arms back so she could push herself up.

Her ribs stung with pain as she sat up.

'this hurts.'

She complained to herself.

She could hear Cyanryou walking about the living room.

'probably cleaning up.'

She told herself.

Bulma took a deep breath and pushed herself up into a standing position.

Everything hurt, worse than it did when the injuries were being made.

But after standing still for almost 5 minutes, the pain started to go away.

"This isn't that bad."

She said out loud.

Bulma looked at the door, then held her breath and took a step foreword.

Surprisingly, it didn't hurt as much as she though it would.

Sighing, Bulma took some more steps to the door, suddenly, it flung open and Cyanryou came in with a tray of food.

Bulma swayed backwards and yelped, she managed to grab onto a desk before falling.

Cyanryou looked at her weirdly, then pushed the tray on the desk and put his arm around Bulma's shoulder,

"What are you doing up!?"

he asked panically.

Bulma limped to the bed,

"I wanted to see if I could move around without any help."

Cyanryou lowered her to the bed,

"Well make sure I'm around when you so that kay?"

Bulma frowned but nodded,

"Have you asked anybody about Vegeta?"

Cyanryou handed some food to Bulma,

"I asked the doctor but he said that nobody has said anything."

Bulma felt tears well in her eyes.

"How much longer till I can do all my own movements?"

Cyanryou shrugged,

"The doctor said a few more days and more of these pills."

He said handing four pills to Bulma who swallowed then before Cyanryou managed to give her anything to drink.

"I want to try to walk again."

Cyanryou looked a little hesitant but sighed,

"Do you want help standing?"

he asked taking the food from Bulma and putting it down.

Bulma shook her head.

Cyanryou watched as Bulma struggled to stand.

Bulma let herself stay still for a few seconds.

"Are you alright?"

Cyanryou asked when Bulma didn't move."

Bulma nodded, I just need to let the pain go away."

Cyanryou nodded and walked up beside her.

Bulma took a deep breath and started to walk foreword.

Cyanryou put his hands out so if she fell, he could easily catch her without causing her pain.

"Where do you plan on going?"

he asked quietly.

Bulma reached for the door handle,

"Downstairs."

Cyanryou put his hand to the door to keep it close,

"No stairs till you've walked down the hall a few times okay?"

Bulma looked at him and saw the worry in his expressions,

"Sure."

She answered.

Cyanryou took his hand from the door,

"Common, lets venture to the outside world."

He said with a chuckle.

Vegeta walked down past the gates of the palace.

The guards stood and saluted him as he left.

Vegeta looked around,

'what way should I go today?'

he asked himself.

Finally, he decided to go left, to the middle classed elites lived.

Vegeta watched as children chased each other under the watchful eye of their parents.

They trained around him and laughed and Vegeta also saw two children making bedroom eyes at each other.

Vegeta shuddered at the thought of a child degrading himself so low.

One parent yelled out to their kids to come back to the house when she saw Vegeta's royal cape moving behind him.

Vegeta sighed and crossed his arms over his back and walked a little slower.

'what am I looking for in these roads?'

he asked himself,

'am I looking for something that could tell me where Bulma is?'

As he came closer to the market part of town, he started to smell the familure foods' smells of morning bakery's and parlors.

One woman glanced up at him, she was sitting by a tree,

"Sir, can you spare a few Yen so I can feed my family?"

she begged.

Vegeta stopped walking and looked at the woman,

'human . . . I remember when Bulma took me to get more garments, there was someone who asked for food or money, she gave them some . . . I'll never forget the look on their face.'

He thought.

'the woman is even to ashamed to let me see her face.'

Vegeta thought sadly.

"Let me see your face."

He barked.

The woman slowly lifted her face.

Vegeta studied her face for a few seconds,

"If you tell no-one I did this, I will give you some, and you are also to give me some information."

The woman's face brightened,

"Oh thank you sir, I am forever in your debt!"

Vegeta pulled back a smile,

"Have you seen a woman with blue hair around here?"
