He nodded slowly, yes, he understand what she just did... yes, he could replicate it if he so choose.
"Good," She said, "Give me your hands and close your eyes." Palm to palm, they sat across from each other, a light glow emitting from their touching hands. Vegeta could feel his body grow stronger, his senses heightening. But he soon senses something going wrong. A spray of blood splattered against his face and contact was broken. His eyes flew open and he looked at his fallen mother with horror.
"Mother?" He asked, looking for some sign.
She looked at him with a small smile. 'I love you.' She mouthed before falling into his arms, lifeless. Her spirit flew from her body and watched as her son cried, holding onto her body, screaming for her to wake up. She watched as King Vegeta stormed in, the guards shaking in his wake. She watched as Vegeta was ripped from her body and thrown across the room. She watched as he stared down at her body, a undecipherable smile on his face. Watched as King Vegeta strode over to her son and thrashed him within an inch of his life. All this, she watched and did nothing, could do nothing, to stop it.
An angel of death came for her and with one last look at the bruised face of her beloved son, she left him. She followed the angel to the check-in registry for the dead and resigned herself to a afterlife of pain. The bloodied face of her eldest son etched in her mind, she couldn't see anything else, and in her heart, she was crying out to see her two sons together with her. "Usagi Tsukino." She looked up with unfeeling eyes to acknowledge her name, "You are born on the thirteenth day of the thirteenth moon."
"Yes." She nodded.
"Daughter to both Saiyen and Earthling. Mother of twins, Vegeta and Kakkorot. Sister to one Zuchi Tsukino." The man behind the counter regarded her calm posture and air of resignation and smiled, "You shall be given a new body on Earth..." A pause. He looked at her hurting eyes, "You will be able to interact with your youngest son... he is now called Son Goku."
Usagi slowly stirred and looked up thankfully at the registrar, but was quickly shooed into a room. She managed to find her voice at last and called out a heart-felt, "Thank-you!" Inside, a tunnel opened and a bit hesitately, she stepped inside, anxious to meet her baby.
"Bunny?"
She was pulled back to the present when she heard his voice. Without turning around, she floated upwards, her eyes on the setting sun and the rising moon. It's almost full... three more days... and Vegeta-sei would blossom once more. It's residents newly recreated, ready to receive their new King and Queen. But who would it be? Vegeta and Bulma? Elegance and grace, intelligence and beauty. Goku and Chi-Chi? Kind-hearted and brave, protective and motherly. Each pair had their own uniqueness. But wait! The reigning queen lived still. Who shall it be?
"Mother."
A small smile on her face, she turned around to face her eldest. Side by side, she saw them together. Side by side. Two strangers whom she understands more than anyone. A blank mask was placed firmly over the contours of her eldest son. Her youngest wore a face of confusion.
"Mother?" Goku looked between his new found brother and the woman that he had known to be Bulma's mother. "This is...?"
A pitying smile found its way to her lips as she came down in front of Goku, "My child..." She reached out a hand as if to carress his face, but her fingers curled into her hand as she bit her lower lip, "So much has changed... so many years have passed..."
"It's all in the past." Vegeta stepped up, "We can be a family again."
"Can we?" Bunny turned around and looked at the horizon, "I am no longer a Saiyen. I am not what you are." A sense of loss flowed through her and she clenced her hands to keep from crying out.
"No one need know!" Vegeta couldn't believe this. His mother, whom he had longed for all these years... now lost to him again. "Please..." He almost begged.
"Aren't you?" Goku watched her, hypnotized by the images that were starting to filter through his mind's eye. Memories in the form of dreams came back to him. He remembered laughing with a raven haired woman, crying to her as he fell from his first attempt at flying, sparring with her... "Shera, shera, n'cko shera..." He softly sang, eyeing Bunny in a mixture of confusion and happiness.
Vegeta watched them. He too, know the lullaby that Goku had sung. When things got particularly bad, she would go into his room and rocked him until he fell asleep, singing the lullaby that was forever imprinted in his mind. How did Kakkorot know? It doesn't matter... not now... not if he could persuade their mother... "Come with us, Mother." Vegeta urged Bunny, "We need you."
Bunny smiled wryly, "You are both grown, no longer needing this old woman."
"Then why did you show yourself to us?" Goku asked angrily, "You gave us hope only to rip it away from us." Disgust made its way into his face, "You are Saiyen in spirit. That part never dies." He reminded her.
"That may be true, but that part of my life is over... and I choose to remain here on Earth..." She looked at them with a long searching gaze, "And how will you choose?" She asked them, "When Vegeta-sei is reserrected, you will have to choose. The land of your birth?" She challenged, "Or here, the land which you have come to call home?"
Goku didn't know what to say and neither did Vegeta. They didn't think that they would have to choose, but choose they must.
"Perhaps we were too hasty..." Vegeta murmured.
Bunny shook her head, "Don't accuse me of things." A pause, "I missed you two too much to fight with you..." With a speed that befits the Queen of Saiyens, she gathered both of them in a hug, "Too much..."
The two brothers didn't say a word. A mother's loving hug was as precious to these two, who have done so long without, as gold.
------------
12,786 miles away, a planet was being formed. As matter gathered, the stars around it twinkled with unspoken dread. For almost thirty years, the universe was at peace. What good will come of this?
"I will have my revenge..." Magenta eyes glinted from inside a ship, "I will not be defeated by a bunch of monkeys..."

Ugh! It's short, I know. I'm sorry! But writer's block sucks! Sometimes I'm really inspired, but I can only throw in a sentence or two. At most a paragraph.
Anyways, what do you think? Who will rule? Vegeta and Bulma? Goku and Chi Chi? Bunny going back as the reigning Queen?
What will happen? Who IS that at the end? ^_^
Review please! ^_^
Riannon - It's still kept in the dark a bit. I'm going to try and explain some of Vegeta-sai's customs, since well, no one really knows how it is... ^_^ I get to play around with it... be afraid. Be VERY afraid... As for Radditz, I'll try and explain in the next chapter.... whenever I get over writer's block... it's the only cure to writer's cramp ya know. ^^;;
Damnit@! - Not much of an update... but I did it!
