Unexpected Love

Part Seventeen

Yamcha hummed to himself as he scraped his cooked three eggs on a plate with his five slices of bacon. He picked up his plate, along with his bowl of cereal and milk and carried it all in the living room. He had the TV on to the mid-morning news. He hungrily ate as he listened to the reporter.

"Back to our top story of an eight month pregnant woman pushed out of a speeding car," a reporter said.

'Pregnant woman? That's just sick. What is this world coming to?' Yamcha thought as he ate his breakfast and listened to the story.

"The pregnant woman was on a shopping trip with her friend, Bulma Briefs, daughter of the head of Capsule Corporation. The two were heading home when Ms. Briefs stopped at an ATM. Ms. Briefs left her car running and a car thief jumped in and drove off in the car with the pregnant woman inside. According to the detective and doctors, there was an apparent struggle and the pregnant woman was pushed out of the car.

"We've learned last night that the pregnant woman is in critical condition but she lost her child. Reporters were able to talk to the husband who didn't have much to say this morning."

Yamcha gasped in shock when he saw a grief stricken Goku on the screen. "My sons and I are dealing with this tragedy the best we can and we thank you for your donations."

The screen switches back to the reporter. "The father was referring to the donations of the flowers, balloons, stuffed animals and money citizens have sent to the hospital since the story broke out."

Yamcha tuned the reporter out as he took in what he saw and heard. Chi-Chi was in an accident. Chi-Chi was pregnant? He didn't know that. The last time he saw her was on the Lookout when Goku was Vegito. A startling realization dawned on him. Chi-Chi was eight months pregnant. Vegito was separated eight months ago. Bulma came to him two months ago saying Vegeta cheated on her. He thought back to his talk with Bulma.

Yamcha almost spit up his cocoa. He quickly swallowed and set his mug down. "Vegeta? Are you sure?"

"Positive."

"Who did he cheat on you with? How do you know?" Yamcha asked.

"I know. Trust me." She starts crying again. "How could she do this to me? We were never the best of friends, but I did respect her."

Yamcha never liked it when Bulma cried. She was always a strong woman and to see her cry show a sign of weakness and it made him angry that someone did this to her. "I'm gonna go beat Vegeta up."

"No!" Bulma cried grabbing onto Yamcha. "No. Don't go after him. I don't want you to tell anyone about this. Promise me, Yamcha. Promise me you won't say anything."

Yamcha saw the plea in Bulma's blue eyes and forfeited. "All right. I won't say anything. What are you going to do? Leave him?"

"No. I love Vegeta. I have a child with him. I want to work things out and it's not his fault. It's that woman's fault. She seduced him. She lied to me. She pretended to be my friend. She's loud, rude, obnoxious, and he slept with her." She cried even harder and buried her head in her hands. "How could she do this to me? Some honor and loyalty she has."

"It was Chi-Chi?" Yamcha guessed. He listened again when he saw a detective on the screen with a reporter.

"There's not much evidence to follow since the bank wasn't able to catch a visual of the man's face," the detective explained.

"Detective, was this a robbery or was the victim target?" the reporter asked.

"It wasn't a robbery because the car was found two miles later and nothing was missing including the women's purses. This led me to believe that the pregnant woman was a target. Her husband claims he and his wife don't have any enemies but so far our evidence points that way."

Yamcha's face turned pale. "Bulma, you didn't. Tell me you didn't."

Yamcha dumped his food, took a quick shower and flew out the door. He had to talk to Bulma.

Gohan left the morgue in disbelief. He couldn't believe what he saw. 'The baby looked a lot like Vegito which means Mom must've slept with Vegito and not Dad. Well, she did sleep with Dad but she also slept with Vegeta. This is confusing. Why though? Did they know the baby was Vegito's or just Dad's? They were pretty much all over each other.' Gohan recalled the few times he would leave for school or come home from school and found his parents being very affectionate with each other.

'I always thought the kid was conceived after Dad was back. Possibly the first night, but now… Does Vegeta know? What if Vegeta is also the father? Kami, this is confusing. There are so many questions and I know Mom and Dad know. I have to find Dad and find out what's going on?'

That was when he saw Videl and Goten coming out of his mother's hospital room. Goten was holding a teddy bear.

Gohan smiled at his little brother as he picked him up. "Hey, Goten, how are you doing?"

Goten had a frown on his face. He clutched onto the teddy bear tightly. "Fine," he said sadly.

Gohan forced a smile. "Where did you get the teddy bear?"

"It was in the room with Mom. There are balloons, flowers, and stuff animals everywhere, Gohan," Goten said in his pure, innocent voice.

"So, you saw Mom," Gohan said. "Did you talk to her?"

Goten nodded. "I told her I love her and I'm sorry she lost the baby and that she gets well. Where's Daddy?"

"We thought he was in the room with your Mom," Videl spoke.

"Oh, well, Dad had to talk to a detective and reporters and then he left. He had some important things to take care of but he will be back soon, Goten. Don't worry," Gohan soothed his little brother.

"Okay," Goten said accepting that.

"Why don't we go home, clean up and get a change of clothes and come back here?" Gohan suggested. "You know how Mom is about cleanliness. She wouldn't want to responsible of us missing a shower."

"All right."

Gohan sat Goten back on the floor. "Why don't you wait at the end of the hall while I talk to Videl for a second?"

"All right, Gohan," Goten said, still holding a teddy bear and walked to the end of the hall.

Gohan embraced Videl. "Thanks for taking Goten to get breakfast and keeping him company, Videl."

"I'm glad to. So," she pulled back to look at him. "Did you see the baby?"

Gohan had a grim expression on his face. "Yeah."

"Oh, I bet it was tough seeing him. Don't worry. It'll get easy overtime," Videl told him.

'I hope so,' Gohan thought.

****

Bulma awakened feeling pretty good about herself. Vegeta ravished her the night before. She thought for sure she gotten pregnant that night. Bulma also awakened to find Vegeta not in bed with her. Figures. He was off to training again.

Bulma rolled out of bed and pulled on a robe and went looking for Vegeta in the training room. She gasped when she saw Goku in there talking to Vegeta.

"Goku."

Goku looked back at her, a frown on his face. "Hi, Bulma."

Bulma brain quickly scanned to say something. 'Okay. Think, Bulma. Think. Goku doesn't know what you did. You shouldn't be nervous to see him. Ask him why he is here?' "Goku, what are you doing here?"

This time it was Goku to look nervous. Bulma didn't know about the baby being Vegeta's, too. "Oh, I, uh--"

"Kakarot was just telling me about losing his child," Vegeta spoke for Goku.

"Oh, right," Bulma said. "I'm sorry about that, Goku, but why are you telling Vegeta this? You two aren't exactly friends."

Vegeta spoke for Goku again. "The child was a Saiyan and Kakarot is a Saiyan. Why shouldn't he tell me and why didn't you tell me about the accident last night?" Vegeta asked.

Bulma swallowed hard as the spotlight was on her. "Well, it was late, Vegeta, and I didn't want to mention it then. Besides, you're not too fond of the Sons anyway." Bulma looked at Goku and changed the subject. "How is Chi-Chi anyway, Goku?" Bulma asked.

"Still in critical condition," Goku answered.

"I'm sorry, Goku," Bulma apologized. "If I hadn't stop at the bank--"

"It's not your fault, Bulma," Goku said. "It's that car thief's fault. The police said that once Chi-Chi wakes up and she gives a description of the guy, they should be able to find him. The police thinks someone was out for Chi-Chi but that's impossible since she doesn't have any enemies."

A flash of panic appeared on Bulma's face that Vegeta saw but Goku didn't. 'Oh, Kami. If they find him, they may snitch on me.' Bulma smiled. "That's great, Goku. I hope they find them. I'm gonna go get dress and take Trunks to the hospital. I'm sure Goten would like the company."

Goku smiled gratefully at Bulma. "Thanks, Bulma. I appreciate that."

Bulma nodded and left the room. Goku let out a sigh of relief. "That was close. For a second there, I thought Bulma would find out with her questions."

"She didn't. That's important," Vegeta said staring at the door. 'Why do I get the feeling Bulma's hiding something from me?'

****

Bulma walked off the elevator with Trunks holding flowers in her hand. They entered Chi-Chi's room and Bulma placed the flowers next to another bouquet that a stranger sent to Chi-Chi.

Bulma looked down at Trunks. "Hey, why don't you check in the waiting room down the hall to see if Goten is there."

"Okay," Trunks said and left the room.

Bulma pulled up a seat next to Chi-Chi's bed. She looked at Chi-Chi, bandaged up, quietly breathing. "I'm very sorry this happened to you."

"Are you?" a person asked.

Bulma turned and saw Yamcha standing in the doorway. "Yamcha?"

"I saw the news this morning," Yamcha said closing the door behind him. "I thought about that conversation we had two months ago. Bulma, please tell me you didn't have anything to do with this."

"I didn't," Bulma lied.

"Stop lying. I know you did." Yamcha ran a frustrated hand through his hair. "The detective said someone might have been out for Chi-Chi. She's eight month pregnant. The fusion ended eight months ago. You knew it was Chi-Chi and you didn't tell me. Instead, you hired someone to kill her. How can you do something so stupid?"

Tears weld up in Bulma's eyes as she realized there was no use hiding it from Yamcha. "It was a mistake."

"A mistake? If you came to me, I could've stopped you from doing something so stupid. Do you realize how many lives you've just ruined?" Yamcha asked.

"What about my life?!" Bulma shouted. "I was going to lose Vegeta forever if I didn't do anything! He already cares about her, probably more than he cares about me! I know I was probably wrong for killing the baby because of Goku, Chi-Chi, Gohan and Goten, but Vegeta. He might care for that baby more than Trunks. I don't want to lose him, Yamcha. I don't want Trunks to lose his father."

"Probably wrong? Bulma, you are wrong," Yamcha said. "You killed an innocent child who had nothing to do with his creation and you almost killed Chi-Chi."

"I didn't mean to kill her. It wasn't part of the plan," Bulma said.

"What was the plan?" Yamcha asked. "You've come this far admitting it. You might as well tell me everything."

Bulma sighed as she turned around to look at Chi-Chi's sleeping form. "The guy was supposed to inject a poison into Chi-Chi's stomach, killing the baby but not harming Chi-Chi. I don't know what I was thinking. Maybe I had too many Martinis to agree to something like that, but I'm really thinking about me and Vegeta."

Bulma's cell phone rings and she dug in her purse to retrieve it. "Hello?"

"Hey, babe. This is Yuji Lao, the guy you talked to in a bar a couple of months ago. I caught the news and heard the baby is dead. My part of the bargain is done so it's time for you to pay up your other half."

"I don't have to pay you anything," Bulma snapped. "You weren't supposed to hurt Chi-Chi."

"Our job requires us to knock off the kid any means necessary and we did. So, it's time for you to pay up. If you don't, I'll just go to the police."

Bulma laughed. "Like they will believe you against me. I'm one of the richest women in the world while you're nothing but a common street thug. I can get the best paying attorneys to defend me against your crooked ones. Once Chi-Chi gets conscious, she's going to give the police a description of the guy you hired and he'll be sent to jail if he's lucky because her husband is the strongest man alive and can destroy your hired man in a blink of an eye so leave me alone!" Bulma turned her cell phone off and shoved it in her purse.

Yamcha had his arms folded as he looked at her. "Let me guess. Those were the hired help that nearly killed Chi-Chi."

"Yep, but that's the last time I'll deal with him. He won't be bothering me again."

Lao slammed his cell phone down on his expensive desk. He pressed his finger down on his phone. "Masako, get in here."

No more than fifteen seconds later, Masako entered the room. "Yes, sir."

"Did that woman you kicked out of the car, Son Chi-Chi, see your face?"

A flash of guilt crossed Masako's face and he lowered his head. "Yes, sir. She pulled it off my face and I had no choice but to push her out. She was causing a struggle."

Lao rose out of his seat and slapped Masako across the face hard. "Idiot! You weren't suppose to let anyone see your face. If that woman wakes up, she'll be able to identify you, which will lead you to me. I want you to go to the hospital and kill this woman."

****

Trunks entered the waiting room and didn't find anyone in there. He decided to wait. What could he tell Goten? He lost his baby brother. There wasn't anything Trunks could think of to make Goten feel better. He could suggest sparing but thought Goten wouldn't want that.

He read a few magazines to make the time go by. His mom sure was spending more time with Chi-Chi than he thought. He knew they were friends and all but they weren't that good of friends. He thumbed through the pages and then tossed it on the table. He walked out the room.

Trunks left the room and walked down the hall, heading towards Chi-Chi's room. That was when he noticed Goten in the arms of Goku who was walking besides Gohan.

"Hey, Goten," Trunks said. "Mom and I came looking for you."

"Oh, Gohan and I went home to shower and get some clothes. That's where Dad found us and drove us back here."

"I'm sorry about your Mom and your baby brother, Goten," Trunks said and looked up at Goku and Gohan. "You too, Goku, Gohan."

"Thanks, Trunks." Goku sat Goten on the floor. "You want to talk to Trunks for a while?" Goku asked.

"Okay. If Mom wakes up, you will tell me right?" Goten asked.

"Of course," Goku said.

Gohan watched Goten and Trunks go into the waiting room. Now that he was officially alone with his Dad, he could talk to him about the baby.

"Goku. Gohan. How's my precious daughter?" Ox-King said as he approached them.

Grandpa. Gohan didn't want his grandfather interrupting him now but his daughter was hurt so he can understand putting his talk with his Dad off.

"Same condition when I called you," Goku said.

Ox-King goes in the room followed by Goku. Gohan walked in last to see his mom. To their surprise, they found Yamcha and Bulma in there, who explained they just came to see Chi-Chi.

Goten stared at the teddy bear he got from his Mom's room. Trunks was sitting next to him. "I'm really sorry about your Mom and brother, Goten. At least you still have one. You have Gohan."

Goten sniffed holding back a tear. "I wanted another brother. I wanted to be a big brother to him like Gohan is to me."

"Your Mom and Dad could have another baby," Trunks said. "I wish mine would. I wouldn't mind having a baby brother or even a baby sister to play with. At least I wouldn't be the only kid in the house."

"Why don't you ask your Mom and Dad for a kid?" Goten asked.

Trunks shrugged his shoulders. "My parents aren't like yours, Goten. If I ask my parents a question like that, they would probably argue about it and say no or say it's none of my business. They're not affectionate like yours who wouldn't mind having another kid. My parents would rather be dead than be caught holding hands, giving hugs or doing all that kissy stuff like I've seen yours when I was at your house. I just don't know, Goten. I guess they could if they really want a kid."

"Well, if your parents don't have another kid and my parents do, you can play with him and pretend he's your brother or sister," Goten suggested.

Trunks smiled at his best friend. He was a little naïve at times and annoying but his heart was always in the right place. "Thanks, Goten. I'd like that."

****

After the Ox-King, Bulma and Yamcha left Chi-Chi's room, Gohan thought he finally had some alone time with his Dad and could question him about his deceased baby brother that looked so much like Vegito. That was when Goten entered the room saying he was hungry.

Goku mentioned he was hungry too. They all left the hospital and went fishing and quietly spent time together talking about their Mom and baby brother. Goten started to cry again but Goku was able to comfort him.

They went back to the hospital that evening. Goku had put Goten to sleep on the sofa in the waiting room closest to his mother's room. Goten was sleeping soundly for thirty minutes now so Gohan thought it was now or never.

"Dad, I went to the morgue and I saw the baby this morning. He looks a lot like Vegito. Either there is a strong coincidence or Mom slept with you when you were Vegito and that means Vegeta is also the father of the baby."

Goku looked stunned that Gohan knew. "I didn't think you would find out."

"So, it's true. Why didn't you tell me?" Gohan asked.

"It's complicated, son," Goku said.

"Dad, I can understand you not telling Goten. He's eight, but I'm nineteen years old. I'm going to be twenty soon. I can handle it. I want to know what happened. I think I deserve that much since you and Mom kept this from everyone, except maybe Vegeta."

Goku sat at a table and Gohan sat across from him. "If I'm going to tell you this, I guess I'm gonna have to you everything. This may not be easy to take but it all started when you came back from Namek."

****

He spotted her through the hospital window of her room. No way was he going to go in the hospital to her room. Someone would spot him and that would raised suspicions. Vegeta pushed the window open and stepped inside. He saw Chi-Chi lying on the hospital bad, head bandaged up, and a bruise on her face that were healing slowly. She looked so peaceful as she slept, but Vegeta was angry she was put in this condition.

Vegeta walked over to Chi-Chi on the bed and stroke her face, where the bruise was. "I'm sorry this has happened to you. It was actually… nice to think I was going to be father again and have a strong child… stronger than I had possibly imagined. Of course part of his strength comes from Kakarot…and you. Gohan and Goten didn't get all their strength from their father. A lot of their fighting spirit comes from you."

Vegeta sighed. Talking about his feelings wasn't his strong point and he didn't like it. "You're strong and your husband, father and two sons will want you to get well." He looked away as if to check if anyone was around watching. He didn't see anyone. "I…want you to get well. I…I…love you…"

He just sat there in his seat almost not believing he said it. He felt it but he also loved Bulma and thought it was wrong to love two women but seeing Chi-Chi like this in the hospital, it just slipped out. "And," he began, "if you tell anyone I said that, I'll deny it." He said and became serious again. "I'll find out who did this and killed them myself."

Vegeta rose from his seat and as he approached the window, he heard someone entering. Vegeta quickly jumped out the window and looked to see who entered.

Vegeta didn't know it but it was Masako, the man who hurt Chi-Chi. 'He doesn't look like a doctor, nurse, or someone Chi-Chi would know.'

Masako looked over Chi-Chi in bed. "Hey, lady, I'm sorry for doing this but the boss said it's either you or me and I want to live. If you didn't struggle and let me take you somewhere where I could inject the poison in the baby, you wouldn't be in this situation." Masako pulled out a needle and prepared to insert it in Chi-Chi when Vegeta flew through the window and slammed Masako in the wall, a hand was around Masako's throat.

Masako struggled to pull free from Vegeta's death grip but it was useless. "What…are you?" He asked in a strained voice.

"The question is--who are you? Talk. Before I break your neck."

"Ma..sako. That's my name."

"What are you doing here? Why were you trying to kill this woman?" Vegeta asked.

Before Masako could answer, he and Vegeta heard the door beginning to open. With swift speed, Vegeta flew them both out of the window. Masako screamed when he realized he was standing over the hospital in the air and so was Vegeta.

"You can fly? What are you?" Masako asked frightened.

"I'm asking the questions here and if you want to live you will tell me everything I want to know starting with why you want that woman dead!" Vegeta barked.

"It's not I like I want to. She's a pretty lady and under better circumstances I could hit her pretty good in the sack. I…" Masako started gasping for air as Vegeta's hand on Masako's throat tightened.

"I asked why you want that woman dead and that is all you will tell me."

Vegeta released some hold on Masako's neck. "Okay. Okay. I work for a big man and he was paid to take the baby out. I was given this needle," he shows it to Vegeta, who takes it and crushes it in his hand. "I was to kidnap the woman, take her somewhere and inject it in the woman's stomach, but I botched it. When she argued, I thought I could shut her up by opening the doors and threaten her to leave, but I didn't know the woman would put up a fight. One thing led to another and the woman was pushed out of the car. The boss ordered me to do it right tonight by killing her so she wouldn't wake up, identify me and lead it back to him."

"Where is your boss?" Vegeta asked.

"He's at his place having a private meeting with his men."

"Show me."

"I can't show you!" Masako argued. "He'll kill me!"

"Do you think you have a choice now?" Vegeta threatened.

Masako gave up. "Okay. Okay. I give. I'll show you."

In Chi-Chi's room, a nurse was checking up on her progress when she heard Chi-Chi groan and her eyes slowly fluttering. The nurse immediately left to go to the waiting room where Goku and Gohan were to alert them that Chi-Chi was awakening.

****

Vegeta flew to Yuji Lao's home with Masako who was still locked in Vegeta's grip. He was calm yet furious. He was going to find out once and for all how and why this came to be. Vegeta spotting Lao and a few other men through the window roof sitting at a round table.

Vegeta crashed in through the window. Lao and his men jumped from their seats and pulled their guns out on Vegeta all except Lao. "Who are you and what are you doing here?" a man asked.

Vegeta scanned the man. All of them had their guns aiming at Vegeta. All except one. Vegeta knew from experience that the leader of the group didn't always have his weapon out but his associates did. Vegeta released Masako and with swift speed, grabbed hold on Lao's neck. Everyone startled at first from Vegeta's speed aimed their guns at Vegeta.

"So you're Lao. You know if they shoot me, which will be pointless, they will kill you."

Lao raised his hand and lowered it. The men lowered their guns. "I'm Lao. What do you want?"

"You were hired to take out that pregnant woman that lost her child. Why?"

"I don't have to tell you anything."

Vegeta smirked. "Is that a fact?" Vegeta tightened his hold on Lao's neck and formed a ki blast in his other hand and aim it at Lao's groin. "Unless you want your favorite organ missing, you'll tell me everything."

Lao started sweating and his heart pounded. "Okay, I'll tell. This woman wanted the baby out of the picture."

"Name!" Vegeta yelled. "I want a name!"

"Briefs. Bulma Briefs."

Vegeta eyes rendered in shock. His eyes widen in horror at the revelation and a sick feeling rose in his stomach. He quickly composed himself. "Why…did she do this?"

"She said her husband cheated on her with that woman in the hospital and got her pregnant. She wanted him to pay. She thought the child would make her life and her family's worse than it already it was. So she paid us to do it."

Vegeta released Lao and he rubbed his sore neck. "Kill him!" Lao ordered.

The men fired their guns on Vegeta. To their shock, it didn't have any affect on Vegeta. He stood there, taking it in, then his power level rose higher. He pulled out one hand and aimed it at the men, who began stuttering as an energy ball formed in his hand. Vegeta released it around the whole room. The ball absorbed everyone including Lao and Masako.

'I said I'd kill the persons involved for hurting Chi-Chi and killing my son and I did that.' Vegeta thought and flew upward in the sky and heading for the hospital with one person on his mind--Bulma Briefs.

To Be Continued

AN: Heh. Heh. Talk about an evil cliffhanger! The confrontation is on now! In case you didn't know, it's going to be in the next chapter. Also, the story was suppose to end in the next chapter. I haven't said what my final decision will be on changing the ending or not, but I have made up my mind now and you will know at the end of the next chapter what it is. Hmm, now when should I update? In six months? ::all the reviewers have Kamehameha Waves, Distructo discs, guns and bats in my direction:: Hmm, maybe three months. ::all reviewers have tanks, spirit bombs, Masenko-Ha in my direction.:: Hmm, maybe I should stick with my regular updates and update next Friday. ::all reviewers nod their heads in agreements despite a few who wants me to update on Saturday and Sunday.::

I wonder if anyone was surprised at Vegeta's confession in the hospital. I wonder if I'm gonna get pounded for it. Hee. Hee. I'm a little giddy today because I'm so excited Dragonball is finally coming back Monday! And I get to see more Inuyasha! Yay!

Dragon's Moon: LOL! You're getting into this. Yes, it's just a story so anything goes.

GOGI: Thanks.

Xmadgirlx: No. I got it from a Writers Guide of Fun Cliffies.

The Lost Saiyan: So far Gohan isn't being catty and isn't giving indication he will be. He's Goku and Chi-Chi's son so you know how he will react. About Vegeta, I guess you know now. Hee. Hee. How did you know it was going to be long?

Bugabuu: Thanks. If you like this one, you're going to love the next chapter.

Sammi: I've pushed you beyond your limits. I'm probably went way overboard this time. If you want Bulma to suffer, put her with Piccolo in your stories. That way he won't be alone.

@@: Thanks!

Goten's Guardian Angel: Of course Gohan's smart enough to figure it out. You might fall out after reading this chapter. Hee. Hee.

Chi-Chi: He's livid now! You should read next week's. Hee. Hee. Stop kidding. You LOVE cliffies!

Mistress of Darkness: She's in more trouble now. Confrontation time!

SuperSaiyanman: The dragon balls were used eight months ago to separate Goku and Vegeta so it's still inert until four more months. You have to wait to find out the rest.

The Shell: I can safely say that no one here is a pure hearted and forgiven as Goku. I consider myself a pretty nice person but if it were me, I would've finished Frieza off on Namek because I knew he wouldn't change. I remember a few years ago when I first saw it that I was yelling. 'Don't believe him, Goku. He's lying. He's not gonna change.' He was just too evil. Goku also struggled with that decision of sparing Frieza. It wasn't easy for him. I think they showed the ep. Tuesday. Remember in the Cell Saga, Goku wanted Gohan to finish Cell off, but Gohan was a little too cocky but kept telling Cell to give up instead because he really didn't want to kill anyone but until his Dad died he saw that Gohan had to do it.

And since it is just a fic and Bulma's been doing some nasty things, what's the big deal if the reviewers want her to die. I said from the beginning if you're a huge Bulma fan or a B/V not to read this story, so a lot of Bulma and B/V haters were drawn to this story. Also it's not just Vegeta's fault. In a way it's everyone's fault. Goku, Chi-Chi and Vegeta could've told Bulma about the baby but they were naively hoping the baby wouldn't have Vegeta's characteristics. They were trying to spare the hurt Bulma would feel. Aw, crap, I'm giving parts of the next chapter away. I better stop. But no matter how wrong Goku, Chi-Chi and Vegeta were, Bulma had not right to kill baby. She should've confronted them with what she knew.

Leigh: Gohan is Goku and Chi-Chi's kid, so you already know how he will take it. Bulma being pregnant? Hmm, I guess you will have to wait to find out that one. Heh. Heh. You must read the next chapter and hopefully review. Everyone needs to review the next chapter as well as this one.

Chris: ::sighs:: Have you seen the Cell Saga? If you remember it, you would've remembered how furious he was when Cell killed Mirai Trunks. You would've remembered how Vegeta attacked Cell with everything he had and you saw how before all that Vegeta didn't even acknowledge Trunks. He didn't really want to train with him when they were in the hyperbolic time chamber.

Oninu: Read the next chapter.

Moon Girl: You might like the next chapter.

Hikari No Tabi: I know you're anxious for the next chapter. You're going to love it. I'm sure you like this one when Vegeta came to the rescue and killed everyone off.

Jade: Yep, the baby's dead. Gohan's smart. Of course he would find out.

Lady Athena: You might be thinking, "No, I want to get to the next chapter now! Vegeta knows Bulma is behind this! I can't wait! I can't wait! I can't wait!" Chi-Chi is waking up now. Xshiny ask for a Videl/Gohan scene some chapters ago and I thought why not. I never write anything about them any. LOL! You're turning everyone away from Bulma. Well, family first and then the world huh? If she reads this, she definitely will hate Bulma.

Girl: It's more than complicated now.

Quasi-Saiyan: It could be because it's so complicated and not easy to write, but it's still fun to do. I agree. I think a lot of women would've reacted the way Bulma did except for the baby, but I think some would confront their husbands. Bulma would've gotten off easy if she did but now that Vegeta knows what Bulma did…well you have to read the next chapter.

Danichan667: I know you loved this one and aching to see the next one! You're probably dancing happily knowing Vegeta knows and what he said in the hospital and how he saved Chi-Chi from Masako. I am too. About Bulma and Vegeta being together, I'll answer that question in the next review.

Chichi Son: How was Vegeta sick? Glad you like it though.

GD: Gohan's mad what happened to his mom. I guess you like Vegeta in this one. You should. He was the hero. Hee. Hee.

Lil-mightygem: The next chapter. You just have to be patient. It's just one more week.

Chuquita: She's desperate and not thinking. Dragonballs were used eight months ago and won't be working for another four months.

CB: I think you guys have a lot of patience with me for dragging out the long awaited confrontation. One more week to go! She can be annoying but I don't hate Bulma like the rest of you guys so it's easier for me to write about her and not kill her so soon. How can I kill her before everyone finds out what she did? That wouldn't be fair. Heh. Heh.

La De Da: The story is kind of addictive isn't it? I can't make it end! It's too much fun to write! It Vegeta doing the butt kicking in this one. I'm actually looking forward to the reviews on this one and the next one.

Xephon: Next chapter for Goku's reaction. You have to wait to see what Vegeta will do. Gohan obviously figured it out because he's smart. Next Friday. Just one more week to find out everything. You can wait that long right?

Skittlekicks: You have a good point of a lot of what you said but you have to wait one more week to find out Goku and Vegeta's reactions. Hee. Hee. Confrontation time! Strange, I'm excited for the next one to be out.

Midnight Goddess: LOL! I know what you mean! I feel like jumping in the stories all the time and say what's going to happen. I sometimes do that for TV shows. I know I did that with DBZ and DB during the tournament sagas. Whoo, I know you're ready for the next one. Everyone is. Just one more week for the confrontation. Part 18 is ready to go but I need to wait another week to post it. Having another baby will make things worse. Can I come to the party? Chi-Chi punching Bulma? Interesting. Heh. Heh.

Divine Heart: Thanks!

Dillpops: Vegeta's know about Bulma and it's not going to be pretty afterwards.

Ssjchika: You have to read the next chapter.

Constructicons: Nah, I'll keep going regardless. Thanks for the review. Glad you like the story.

Princess Frieza: You must love this chapter then now that Vegeta knows.

Contrail: Yep, it's hitting it next Friday when I update. I'm excited I'm finally getting to the confrontation.
