"" = Speaking ** = Thoughts ### = Flashback
It had been over three weeks since the strange encounter at Kame House, and nobody had forgotten it. Bulma immediately started to repair Vegeta's ship, and continuously asked Vegeta questions about his far away family. Vegeta never answered her, but that, by no means, ceased her questioning. Goku and his family pondered the idea of having new members to their already happy family. From what they had seen, the new elements in their lives were nothing like Raditz, so they were eager to welcome them into their family unit. The rest of the Z gang continued on with their normal activities, although they did have a new sense of empathy for the feisty Saiyan Prince.
On this particular day, it was pouring down rain, as well as thundering and lightening. Training in this weather was definitely not appropriate for Goku, or Vegeta, so Goku decided it would be the perfect day to question his Prince about his new found family. After a heated argument with the Saiyan Prince, Goku convinced Vegeta to answer his questions, with only him, Gohan, and Bulma in the room. When everyone was sitting around the kitchen table in Capsule Corp, with a hot beverage, Vegeta could not believe he was actually enthusiastic about answering their questions!
Bulma had the honor of asking the first question. "What's she like?" "Well, Anakin is, interesting. She's sweet and nice to everyone. She's extremely intelligent, but a little naïve. She has a temper to match my own, and a mean streak as large as the sky. It takes quite a bit to make her angry, but when you succeed, it's in your best interest to get as far away as possible. She's a little bit shy around new people, but it never lasts for long. She'll talk your ear off about nothing, and sometimes she talks so much, I don't think she has to breathe to survive. She can be very funny when she wants to be, but doesn't usually like to have un-necessary attention directed her way."
Goku, having taken all of this in, asked the one question he had to know. "Did she have a good relationship with Raditz?" "Anakin always looked at Raditz like he was a god. She thought he was perfect, but I guess that's just because he was her big brother. Raditz spent a lot of time with her, but wasn't always nice to her. I think they had a pretty good sibling relationship. I can remember this one time when...."

Lying in a hospital bed, 10 year old Anakin awoke with the thought that this was the worst experience of her life. Not totally sure why she was there, the only hint as to the cause was the pain shooting down her right side. Confined to a bed, she had nothing to do but stare at all the odd looking alien doctors, who scurried around the room tending to other patients. "This sucks!" exclaimed Anakin.
"Like you?" came the snippy reply. Turning to her side, Anakin was greeted by her brother, Raditz, who was sitting on the bed next to her. With only a pair of blue spandex training pants on, Anakin had a clear view of the rather large bandage covering Raditz's right side. "What happened to you?" she asked pointing to his side, wincing as she was reminded of her own pain. "You happened." Receiving a quizzical look, he continued "You collapsed today during training, so I took you to the med bay. They said there was something wrong with the way your kidneys were functioning. They said you needed a new one, and I was the only one who could give you one. That's why I have this here bandage." Anakin, who was too touched by her brother's caring to thank him, gave him a mock pout. "Why aren't you in pain like I am then?" "Because you're a wuss"
########################################################################
"He actually gave his kidney to save her?! That didn't seem like the man who kidnapped me." exclaimed Gohan. "Raditz didn't want to see the last member of his family die. He could prevent it, so he did." Vegeta replied. "Enough about Raditz," Bulma interjected, "I understand that you probably don't want to talk about how you fell in love with her, but I'm curios to know how you managed to start a family with her, if Frieza was there." "When Anakin became pregnant, Frieza wanted to kill her. He didn't like the idea of wasting his resources on someone who couldn't do anything for him. But, because he wanted to keep me loyal to him, he allowed her to live. He thought that, by making sure she was taken care of, I wouldn't revolt against him. He also realized that he had another playing card against me and Raditz, and used threats directed at her to control us. It worked, until I found this nice little planet far from Frieza. We sent her there, and he never picked up on where she was. I think it was just blind luck. And that's where she still is." All the people present accepted this answer as the truth, but Vegeta knew it was far from the truth. *They don't need to know the truth. It's not my place to tell them anyway*
Gohan, not wanting the conversation to end, stated "I can't think of any good questions right now, so how about you tell us stories about your wife and kids?" "O.k., that sounds reasonable, but where to start?"
REVIEW!!!!
Got any requests for cute stories, about cute kids? I've got plenty, but I'll take a decent request. Just remember their ages! 2 and 4. You can make them younger if you want, but make sure to be realistic!
