Thanks to adbzfan2K03 for reviewing. Here's the next chapter of TAAWTATB. Read. Enjoy. Review.

Disclaimer: Sadly I do not own Dbz. Hey I got an idea! Instead of reviewing you can give me money so I *can* own it. Ah the joys of owning Vegeta. *Starts to drool.*

Vegeta: Disgusting! Just read the blasted story to make angel happy. She always cries when she's not.

VLA: Aww Veggie-chan you do care. Any way I do own Leash, Wendy, and any one else I make up in my head.

Things Aren't Always What They Appear To Be

Chapter 3 The Invitation

*Diiing Dooong.*

"Yes who is it?" Bulma asked before opening the door.

"It's me Leasha."

"Oh hey Leash sweetie how are you this morning?" Bulma said as she opened the door.

"Good. I have something to give you." Leash said as she walked in.

"You do? What is it?"

"Here. I didn't read it I swear. It's from Veggie-chan. I don't ask I just do." Then Leash handed Bulma the letter. Bulma looked at it curiously but took it and read it any way.

Dear Bulma Briefs,
So I hear you are the new president of my science division. I would like to meet and have dinner with you tomorrow evening. It will be in my quarters at 7:00 sharp. I will send a guard to escort you there. Oh yes and my son, Prince Vegeta, will be joining us as well.
Sincerely,
King Vegeta

"So what's it say?! What's it say?! What's it say?!" Leash asked excitedly jumping up and down.

"It says King Vegeta wants to have dinner with me tomorrow."

"Uh huh Veggie-chan gave that to me yesterday. It's tonight."

"Veggie-chan?" Bulma asked with a giggle.

"Yup, I call Prince Vegeta that. Oh but don't tell any one. He would get really mad at me *and* you."

"Ok. But that means . . . Oh dear what am I going to wear?!"

"Don't worry, Steffany, Sabrina, Wendy, and I can help."

"Who are . . . ?"

"Don't worry about that now. We got to get you to work." Then Leash pushed Bulma out the door and showed her to her work.

*~*~*

It was 10 to 7. Bulma now knew that Sabrina is Leasha's older sister, Steffany her much older cousin, and Wendy her younger cousin of about 9 months. Bulma was wearing a long, tight, black dress with spaghetti straps. She was just putting on some finishing touches when the door bell rang.

*That must be the guard.* Bulma thought. She walked to the door and opened it. When Bulma saw who it was she was dumbfounded. She just stood there and stared at the person in front of her.

"What do I have something on my face?" The man asked touching his face to see what it was Bulma was staring at.

"GOKU! OH MY GOSH! I THOUGHT YOU WERE DEAD!"

"I am not this *Goku* you are talking about. My name is Bardock. We better get going. You don't want to be late and get King Vegeta mad."

"Um ok." Bardock then offered his arm and Bulma took it. As they walked they talked. As Bulma suspected Goku was Bardock's youngest son.

"Well her it is. I'll come and escort you back if you wish. Ok?"

"Ok, thank you." Bardock turned and left. *Well here it goes.*

*~*~*

"Hey Yamcha are you ok?" Krillin asked his room mate out of concern.

Yeah it's just I miss Bulma. I hope she's all right." Yamcha answered his friend.

"Don't worry. She's a strong girl. I'm sure she is."

"Yeah and also knowing her big mouth . . ."

"Yeah I see what you mean. Hey there's a way to find out where she is."

"Really?!"

"Yup and tomorrow straight after training we'll go."

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

This chapter's kind of boring I know but the next chapter's funny. I'll give you a little preview.

"I was not woman there's something on your head." Vegeta said to Bulma.

"Where?! What is it?!" Bulma said going to her purse to get out a mirror.

"Oh I'm sorry that's just your ugly face." Vegeta said with a smirk and began to laugh. Bulma fumed.

So there's your little preview. I'm thinking about starting to do that. Hopefully that will get people to review. Oh speaking of review. I have this little deal. All I need is one review and I'll post another chapter. Just one little review. That's all it takes. Review or I'll cry.

Vegeta: Oh please review. If she starts I swear I'll kill my self!

VLA: Don't do that Veggie-chan. I love you.

Vegeta: Whatever just review.

Luv Alwayz
