Simple and clean is the way that you're making me feel tonight***

Ch 4: Four Hours

"Like the view?"

     At first, Bulma had been mesmerized with the man's voice; it was smooth and deep with a small trace of an accent. It lingered in your mind for moments after he said those few words, catching her off-guard. She gave him a dazzling smiled, "It is beyond perfect, my liege," then added, "Why did you come to see me?" The Prince was dressed in the royal attire as a Prince should be; However, Princes on Vegeta-sei were a bit different than Princes from other planets. Vegeta was wearing black sai-jin armor, outlined in a deep red. A blue insignia of the royal family's crest shown brightly on his chest in the center of the plated armor, while a navy blue cape hung on his back, the crest in the center of the sweeping cloak embroidered in gold. His pants were loose and a beautiful onyx, while his training boots were a bloody crimson. The Prince was decked out in all of his family's glory.

"I am just checking upon my guests to see if they had arrived safely into the palace and to their rooms," He said with amusement, Bulma found him to be saying he was just checking up on her rather than the whole group. Miss Superstar wasn't dissatisfied with holding Prince Vegeta's attention at the time. Seductive thoughts began to wander….

"Did you enjoy the tour?" Cutting out of her current fantasy, Bulma half-smiled and nodded.

"I forgot how beautiful Vegeta-sei is, my Lord,"

"One can never forget the memories of this planet, however," He replied, brushing a strand of hair out of her face. Bulma was surprised at the man's gentle-ness; she had always heard that the Prince was a quick-tempered and arrogant man, Vegeta could put up a good front though.

"I just came by to ask if everything was in order, and to tell you and your companions the feast is starting at 7:30," His voice held an edge of finality to it, so the blue beauty bowed briefly (A/n: ALLITERATION!) as the sexy, dark Prince walked away in his whole 'glory' outfit.

       When she heard the door close behind him, the childish Bulma squealed in delight one last time at the view before going into her chambers once again. Setting out a regal outfit for herself, she went to the others rooms, yelling the time of the feast to each of them.

The Yelling and Conversations:

Goku and Chichi's Room:

Some rustling is heard behind the door, along with a few grunts and groans.

Chichi: Goku! Just pull it out! It's not that hard!

Bulma's eyes go wide at this.

Goku: I can't Chi! It's stuck!

Chichi: Pull harder! It'll come out sooner or later!

Goku: Chichi…It's no use…

Bulma politely knocks on the door, Chichi opens I:30t a crack, looking out.

Chichi: Oh, hey Bulma, you need anything?

Bulma: Uh…umm…The Feast is at 7:30..

Goku comes and opens the door all the way, showing that both Chi and Goku are completely clothed.

Goku: When's the feast Bulma?

Bulma: 7:30, What are you two doing? Blushes while asking.

Chichi: Our luggage's lock won't come undone, and Goku is trying to pull it off.

Goku: I said blast the damn thing, if we don't get it open, we'll be late for the feast!

Chichi: No we won't, we have plenty of time, four hours to be exact.

Goku: You take three hours to get ready!

Bulma slowly closed the door, fearing for the 'wrath of Chichi' that Goku was bringing; going down to the next room, Krillin's and 18's.

Krillin and 18's Room:

Knocked on the door lightly, and at the first knock, 18 opened the door, smiling.

18: Hey there Bulma! Have you come to check out our pad?

Bulma: I came to tell you that the dinner is at 7:30.

Krillin came to the door, horrified.

Krillin: That means it starts in four hours right??

18 and Bulma: Yes Krillin.

Krillin suddenly tugged 18 from the door and spoke to her gently.

Krillin: 18, we need to get ready.

18: Why? We have four hours.

Krillin: You take at least 4 hours to get ready!

Bulma sighed, closing the door. She wondered if all couples argued about that.

Going across the hall, up one room, the one beside hers, she came to Yamcha's room.

Yamcha's and ???'s Room:

As Bulma came to the door, she heard a feminine moan along with Yamcha saying some 'things' that were rather….yeah.

Instead of knocking, Bulma tried the door, finding it unlocked, she closed her eyes and opened the door.

Bulma: Yamcha, I just wanted to tell you that the dinner is at 7:30.

???: Oh my god! You're Bulma Briefs!!!!

Bulma closed the door on an angry Yamcha, and went straight back to her room.

Bulma's Room:

     She laid out a stunning gown, it fell to the floor, but was loose around the hips and legs, just flowing. It was a lavender color, and made of velvet. On one side, a split went up to her mid-thigh, and on the edges of the split's fabric, tiny leaves and vines crawled up to meet each other, intertwining at her hip, then making a big red rose. She had some 4" heels that were also lavender, that tied up her calves with silk ribbons. To top it all off, she had purple and diamond butterfly 'pins' to stick in her hair when she finished getting it done. The outfit would make her seem a beautiful and mystique wood nymph.

Shocking.
