WHAT'S LOVE GOT TO DO WITH IT

"Be the mother of your children?" Yakusoku asked as she didn't quite understand what the saiya-jin was asking.

"Yes, that's what man in this world say when he wants to take wife, right?" Raditz said confuse.

"Would to you like to marry me, that's what he supposed to say Raditz." She said irritated.

"Oh well, on Vegeta-sei that's what we say." He said smiling.

"Yeah, right. Wait a second! Are you asking me to marry you?" She said surprised.

'And she kept saying I am slow' he said under is breath before saying aloud "Yes, that's what I am asking."

"You got to be kidding me!"

"I am serious"

"What? Do you think I am stupid? Weren't you listening to me?"

"Actually I was Yakusoku. I've been thinking about what you kept telling me about how lucky I am to have a second chance in life and how pointless it was to waste my life in pursuit of revenge against my brother. I didn't pay no mind to your words until now, but after dying once and almost bite it twice it occurred to me that you were right. All my life I've been some kind of drifter, traveling throughout the galaxies, destroying life for money. This was my way of life, that's what I know and it never bothered me until now. I came to remember that my life wasn't always like this, I once have a family people who cared for me loved me but I ended up hurting them; and then I learned the truth about my real origin, who I really am. I am a saiya-jin, a space warrior and killing my adoptive parents was ok I was just doing my job." Raditz said while repressing a sob and Yakusoku was looking at him sadly.

"They told me to forget everything about that life, these people didn't matter, that my mother didn't matter and I listened to them, but the life they offered me could never replace what I've lost. My mother was gone because I've killed her, for what? So some madman could make a profit." He said in tears.

"I am so sorry." Yakusoku said while trying to hold him in her arms but he moved away.

"No. You have to know, I've destroyed so many lives without remorse but I can never forgive myself for taking hers but still this didn't help me to stop hurting people because I didn't have any reason not to. I came here after my brother, trying to get him to try that despicable life which was mine, I got killed and forgotten. You are right I got a second chance to rebuild what I've destroyed long ago and I want to do it with you." He said.

"Why me?" she asked.

"Because I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for you, you are the one who always bring me back. I don't know who else could be better placed to be the mother of my children than you." He said

"Oh" she said disappointed because that wasn't the answer she was waiting for.

"Yakusoku?"

"Sorry but I gotta go." She said walking away.

"Please don't go. I need you."

"Yeah I've heard you need a woman to carry your children but being a surrogate mother isn't in my job description." She said coldly.

"Why does everything must be difficult with you?" Raditz asked.

"Let me think. You came on this planet to annihilate us, your brother and his friend got rid of you before you did. You died and I don't know by what miracle you came back to life after being dead for so long, but still you tried to kill us, then we decided to eliminate you but I didn't know what came over me to free you. Once freed you planed to get revenge and to do so you came asking me for help and I accepted, why? I don't really know. You got sick and almost died and I worked day and night to find a cure, this was good because a lot of people's live have been saved. Once cured you couldn't find any other way to thanks me by forcing me into bed, and now you have the nerve to ask me to bare your children! You are right I AM difficult!" she said pissed while walking away.

"Yakusoku, just tell me what to do for not loosing you and I'll do it." He said and she stopped in her tract and without looking at him she answered.

"Just leave me alone."

Years earlier in the Capsule Corporation ground

"I can't believe you are helping him out!" Yamcha said to Bulma who was sitting on the veranda while watching Vegeta yelling at a blond-haired young man who was hired to help Dr Briefs in programming the saiya-jin's prince training bots.

"Why?" She asked aloof.

"Why? Bulma, this guy is a monster he's responsible for the death of countless of people and not a while ago he wanted to destroy us!" Yamcha said.

"This is old news." She said.

"What? Bulma! What do you think he'll do once he becomes a super saiya-jin?" He asked her and she shrugged.

"He'll go after Gokou!"

"Gokou can defend himself, and I rather have him around than in space doing Kami knows what." She said.

"But Bulma…" Yamcha began.

"No more Yamcha, he'll stay here as long as he wants and we'll help him the best we can to help him reach his objective this is the less we can do to thank him for saving our lives." She said annoyed by her soon to be ex-boyfriend. They have split for the umpteenth times months ago after a stupid argument.

"Saving our lives?" Yamcha repeated.

"Yes, Vegeta help us a lot on Namek and here, you wouldn't be still alive today if it wasn't for him."

"I won't be dead in the first place if he wasn't for him! That bastard is responsible for all the events that took place for the past years! I can't understand why you want to help him that bad."

"Nobody complains when I took you in, remember?" Bulma said angry.

"This was different."

"In what you both were criminals?"

"I would ever hurt anyone I can't say the same for him."

"He's not hurting anyone anymore."

"Why because he promises it you that?" Yamcha mocked.

"No" she said blushing "the only thing he wants is to surpass Gokou and as you might notice whoever he beats never can caught up with him. So no need to worry, ok?" she said smiling.

"Yeah, you're right but I'll be keeping an eye on him just in case."

"Sure." Bulma said while Yamcha jump from the veranda and walked toward Vegeta who was still yelling at the help.

"The bots malfunction again you lousy bum!" the prince yelled at the man.

"First of all I am not a lousy bum, and second you never give me any time to complete the task." The young man replied in the same tone.

Yamcha was impressed by that young man who seemed not at all scared by the moody saiya-jin and wondered if he would if he knew who he was really dealing with, but what Yamcha didn't know was that he knew. Bruno was working at the CC's for months now and was the only one left after Vegeta scared away most of Dr Briefs' helpers.

"Oh really? You better fix these damn things right or I'll use your ass as a target!" Vegeta said.

"Now you wouldn't like to do that Vegeta, have you forgotten that Dr Briefs is absent for awhile?" Yamcha said, but Vegeta just walked away without answering the warrior.

"What a character? This guy seriously needs to follow some anger management program." He said smiling.

"I'll say, so will you come to the game tonight?" Yamcha asked to Bruno who he had befriended since he came to work there.

"You betcha you know I am one of your greatest fans." Bruno said.

"Good, see you there and bring a ball I'll try to get you some signature."

"Super! Thank you very much."

"Don't mention it."

"What's up with you and the help Vegeta?" Bulma said while following him in the kitchen.

"I don't like the guy." He replied while opening a can of soda.

"You don't like anyone." She said while taking the soda from him and took a sip.

"Get yours." Vegeta said while taking the can back and Bulma rolled her eyes and took one from the fridge.

"I think he's spying on me." Vegeta said while taking a seat.

"Who Bruno? You are really paranoid he's just a kid." She said and Vegeta grunted.

"Are you planning and spending the whole night training again." She asked.

"Yes, why are you asking?"

"I wonder if you'll like to take a break from training and go out with me."

"Are you asking me out?" Vegeta asked surprised.

"Well yes." She said smiling.

"I guess I can take a break with the bots not ready and all."

"Great we are going to dine out tonight in a nice restaurant nothing fancy but you'll like." She said.

"Ok." Vegeta said. The two went out about eight in the evening and came back around eleven thirty. Bruno came back a little after from the party that was given after the game and wanted to finish up with the programming of the bots, so to avoid any conflict with Vegeta. He went inside the space capsule when he heard moaning coming from the lower level of the spacecraft, he tiptoed downstairs and saw Vegeta putting it to Bulma. He silently sneaked out and went home.

"I know I am going to be in trouble tomorrow." He said while leaving.

The next day Vegeta stormed out of the capsule and went after Bruno who was working on a new type of bots.

"You little shit you didn't get any work done! The bots are still not working! What have you been doing all night?" Vegeta shouted at him.

"Oh sorry for having a life!" Bruno replied.

"Listen to me you tramp…" Vegeta began.

"Tramp? You are the only tramp here; I am not the one screwing the hostess so I can have my way."

"What did you just say?" Vegeta said in rage "that's it you are dead!" he said throwing a punch at Bruno, but surprisingly enough this one dodged it which angered the prince even more who decided to ki blasting him instead. Bruno watched with horror the blast coming at him but it got deviated it by another one, he looked at his right to see Yamcha.

"Stay away from this!" Vegeta shouted at him.

"I won't let you hurt him." Yamcha said.

"You'll be the one getting hurt if you interfere!" Vegeta said.

"Think about it for a second Vegeta, if you kill him you'll have to kill me too and Gokou won't be too happy about it!" Yamcha said.

"You weaklings do nothing than hide behind Kakorott, once I become a super saiya-jin and defeat him you won't have anyone to hide behind!" Vegeta said leaving.

"Are you alright?" Yamcha asked Bruno.

"Yes, thanks to you. I never new that being a programmer could be such a dangerous job."

"I think its time for you to quit that job." Yamcha said.

"I think so too, well bye we'll keep in touch."

"Of course, take care."

"You too, bye Yamcha." Bruno said while going to tell Bulma he was resigning.

"Not you too!" She said.

"I am sorry, but I don't think it's good for my heath to work here anymore." Bruno said.

"Alright then."

"Sorry and bye." Bruno said and left capsule Corporation having in his mind not to set foot there.

One month later, it was Bulma's birthday and Yamcha wanted to surprise her he had bought an engagement ring and decided it was time to proposed her to marry him

"Tonight is the night; I already call her to take her out I want everything to be perfect. We'll meet at the old bridge out of town near the park the scenery is breath taking there; this is going to be very romantic." He said to Puar.

"Don't you think this is a little too hasty?"

"I don't think so I should have done it a long time ago. I know Bulma and I are made for each other and it is time for me to prove it to her."

"Well ok, are you going now?"

"Yeah, I can't barely wait I am so excited!" Yamcha said while getting in the car.

"Well bye, have a great time!" Puar said to him while he was driving away.

Yamcha was waiting for Bulma for thirty minutes now still no sign of the woman. He was spacing on the bridge while he looking at his watch, there was a wonderful sunset but the warrior was too preoccupied to notice, not even when the wind began to blow bringing enormous grey clouds and rain began to pour down.

I'm standing on a bridge
I'm waiting in the dark
I thought that you'd be here by now
There's nothing but the rain
No footsteps on the ground
I'm listening but there's no sound

"I can't believe she forgot!" He said while hovering on the bridge and flew in the direction of the Capsule Corporation where he landed on Bulma's balcony. He slide open the windows and got in but there was no one in the messy room. He came down to the living room where he found Mrs. Briefs who told him that Bulma had left already.

"Aw man I hope she's alright." He said while taking off while trying to pick up the woman ki, which was very close. Yamcha landed near spacecraft and looked in the window; he could see clothes laying all over the floor and not far from them Bulma and Vegeta making love. He felt his heart tighten and a not in his throat, he turned his head away and closed his eyes for a second reopened them and flew away not knowing where he was going.

Isn't anyone trying to find me?
Won't somebody come take me home
It's a damn cold night
Trying to figure out this life

Yamcha began to wander all night going from bar to bar trying to drown his pain not believing what he just saw, soon everything around him was nothing but a blur.

am looking for a place
searching for a face
is anybody here I know
cause nothings going right
and everything a mess
and no one likes to be alone

He began to walk in a dark alley which seemed to have no end, when he finally got out of it and found himself in the middle of the street where he got hit by a car blinded by its bright light Yamcha tried to get on his feet. Soon he heard a voice asking him if he was alright and helped him getting on the car. He told that person he was alright there is nothing to worry about. The stranger drove him to a house and helped him get in, got rid of his wet and dirty clothes, bandaged his cut and put him to bed

Won't you take me by the hand
take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are
but I... I'm with you

Oh why is everything so confusing
maybe I'm just out of my mind
yea yea yea

and joined him soon after on Yamcha request.

I don't know who you are
but I... I'm with you[1]

Yamcha woke up the next morning with a horrible hangover having little recollection of what happened to him last night and wondered how he ended up in this luxurious bedroom.

"Aw man I got drunk again and must have been picked up by some girl." He said while looking at the person sleeping next to him, the only thing he could see was some long blond hair coming out of the covers. He pulled it off and froze in terror.

"Oh no, no, no, no!" he said as he began to recall the events of last night.

Yamcha's life just got more complicated, you don't want to miss the next chapter of Unforgivable "Transition!"
