Meanwhile somewhere further away on a large property front known as the Capsule
Corporation I vision travels to its inner dwellers.
At Capsule Corp:
Vegeta was in his room dressing when all of a sudden he felt this strange ki headed their
way and fast.
"What the?", he frowned and threw on the rest of his clothes then flew outside.
At the rate it was traveling it would reach Capsule Corp in about 20 minutes maybe less.
He frowned and instead of waiting on it to come to him he flew out to meet it.
Rogue had been flying around now for about 45 minutes when she finally spotted some
dome shaped buildings far up ahead. She had increased her speed and figured she'd reach
the compound in about 18 minutes or so.
Vegeta was flying up fast he could feel the ki get stronger the closer he got. He was almost
upon it when he spotted it headed in his direction. He quickly dove down and circled in
behind the figure.
"What? I could a sworn I saw somethin'.", Rogue said to herself.
"No....Ma eyes are just playing tricks on meh.", she said to herself.
But this time they weren't there was actually someone sneaking in behind her. Now she
may not have been able to read ki signatures but she could definitely tell when she was being
followed at close range. So she flew out a little ways and then whirled around in an instant.
"Sho ya self!", she yelled out.
Vegeta smirked a bit and then slowly made his way in front of her.
"Why the heck ya'll fallowin' meh?", she frowned but only a bit because she realized he
must have been a mutant like her as well.
"You come invading my home and expect me to answer the question of why I'm following
you.", he frowned slightly.
"Look I came here to seek some help from a scientist. And I ain't leaving till I gets it.", she
stated sternly.
"What help could you possibly need?", he frowned.
"That's none a yer concern.", she said.
"Oh it's my concern all right woman.", he frowned.
"Look stop fallowin' meh or you'll be sorry. Don't make me have to fight you.", she
frowned.
"Oh please. I love a good challenge. Although you would not prove much of a challenge
you being a woman and all.", he smirked.
He was enjoying this and baiting her he found was much easier than he thought.
"Gah Why can't you all just Leave Me ALONE!!", she yelled.
Vegeta was finding her more and more intriguing. Her temper was quite fiery yet she
seemed as tho she lacked something yet he knew not what.
"If you want to get to where you're going you're gonna have to get past me first.", he
smiled.
"Fine have it your way. I tried ta warn ya!", she frowned and lunged at him. Vegeta easily
side stepped her. She frowned and regained some of her composure. She flew right at him
and he didn't move. She collided her fist with his stomach and he went flying backwards.
His hand clutching at his stomach.
~Gah I didn't know she had that much power in her.~, her frowned. ~No matter I can still
beat her.~
But while he was getting over his shock she had already resumed her flight back to capsule
corp.
Vegeta quickly took off in her direction.
She landed inside of the capsule corp grounds and Vegeta then landed right behind her.
"Nice punch woman. But now it's my turn.", he smirked.
"Gah! You again! I don't have time foh this.", she frowned.
Bulma heard all the yelling coming from outside and walked out the front door of the
Capsule Corp house to see what was going on.
She spotted the strange woman first who in turn noticed her Vegeta was about to punch her
when she turned away.
"VEGETA!", Bulma yelled at him.
"GAH! What is it woman!", he growled.
"Don't you dare.", she flashed him one of her venomous looks then turned back to the
woman.
"You....I....I've come here in search of you Dr. Briefs. I was hoping that maybe you could
help meh.", Rogue said a little surprised that she found her.
"Sure come in.", Bulma said intrigued that someone would come seeking her out for her
help.
Vegeta frowned and stalked in behind them to see what this woman wanted with his mate.
Meanwhile not more than 2 miles from Capsule Corp:
"Gambit need ta take a break. All dis running 'round. Cher I hope it's worth it. You coming
all this way.", he said to himself.
After taking a 5 minute break he resumed his walk up the streets and after about 45 minutes
he came upon the same flower shop she had walked by. He smiled seeing a cluster of Red
and White roses.
Again the same boy who had met her earlier exited the store.
"Good day sir may I interest you in a bouquet of roses for your sweet?", Omi suggested.
"Sorry kid but Gambit got to find out where she is first. Wouldn't want to buy nothing and then
have em die before Gambit can find her.", he said mostly to himself. He glanced once more
at the cluster of roses then smiled again.
"You like these. I was inspired so I went inside and made them up then put them out here on
display.", he smiled.
"I see. Well I don't suppose you happen to have seen a young woman with hair like this?",
he asked.
"Oh Mrs. LeBeau. Yes she came by here earlier.", the little boy smiled.
"Mrs. Le....Yes do you know which way she went?", he questioned trying to stifle the small
grin he had on his face.
"Actually I believe she said she was going to Capsule Corp to see Dr. Briefs.", he said.
"Where is this place?", he asked.
"Up North not more than a few miles from here. Just keep heading up this street until you
come to some large Dome like buildings that's Capsule Corp. You'll probably find her
there.", he said.
"Thanks.", he smiled and gave the boy a dollar for helping him then took off.
"Wait...This is....hmmm oh well. I'm sure they'll be able to change it at the bank or
something...I hope.", he said.
Gambit was happy he was on the right track and he was even more happy that she chose his
name as her alias while she was here. It only heightened his determination to find her.
Back at C.C.:
"So tell me Ms...uhm what's your name again?", Bulma asked.
"I'm Mrs. LeBeau.", she said.
"Well Mrs. LeBeau tell me what your problem is and I'll do my best to try to help you.", she
smiled.
"Well thank you. But could we sort of talk about this alone?", she said eyeing Vegeta over
with a slight frown.
"Oh yes of course. Come on we can go out to my lab.", she said.
They got up to leave and Vegeta was about to follow them again.
"Vegeta you stay here. And if you try to follow me your gravity machine won't be fixed for
a week.", she frowned.
He just grumbled and turned his back then marched into the kitchen for some food.
Bulma and Rogue walked out to the lab where Bulma closed the door securing the two of
them inside.
"Now tell me Mrs. LeBeau. What seems to be the problem?", Bulma asked.
"Well, I've seen your husband fly and what not so I know you must not be afraid of mutants.
Therefore I guess I'll just get straight to tha point.", she said and swallowed.
"Mutant? Uhm yes of course please go on.", Bulma said not wanting to let on to her that she
wasn't totally sure what they were talking about.
"Yes well I have this problem. And I want you to try to see if there is anything you can do
to fix it.", she said.
"I'll do my best. But take your time and just explain to me what it is.", Bulma said calmly to
her.
"Well, my own powers allow me the ability to fly and give me super human strength. But
the third part of my powers I sometimes look on as a curse.", she said lowly.
"What do you mean?"Bulma asked her.
"Well. I can't touch another living being without draining their energy.", she said.
"Draining?", Bulma said a little stunned.
"Yes I have to wear these gloves on my hands and I can't let anything touch me. You don't
know how frustrating that can be sometimes. Just once I wish I could feel someone else's
touch without worrying about taking their energy.", she said lowly.
"Well I will need to see exactly what it is before I can help you.", she said lowly.
"Well what do you want me to do doc?", she questioned.
"Hold on a sec.", Bulma said and walked over to a small cage where some mice were in
them.
"Here touch one of these mice.", she said.
"I can't I might kill em.', she said lowly.
"Please just trust me.", she said softly.
"Well al'right.", she said and slipped the glove off her hand then reached her hand out and
touched the mouse. Immediately she felt some of it's energy enter her and snatched her
hand away.
Bulma was watching this all the while with a strange amount of fascination.
"So do you think you can help me.", she questioned.
"Yes but first things first. I'll need a few samples of your blood.", bulma stated.
"Do whatever you have to doc. I ain't goin no where.", she stated.
Bulma immediately set up her lab. She quickly put on her lab coat and then grabbed a few
small tubes to fill with blood. Slipped a needle into her arm to draw out some of the blood
being very careful not to touch her. She made sure she had on gloves as well. She drew out
about 4 tubes of blood then slowly slipped the needle out.
"Is there anything else I can do?", Rogue asked.
"Not right now. Just uhm you can go over there on that cot and rest if you like.", Bulma
said
"Thank you.", she said and walked over to the cot then laid down upon it.
In no time at all she was fast asleep.
Bulma in the mean time was running all sorts of tests on her blood. She even took some of
her blood and mixed it to see the affects. When she tried that she noticed that her blood
seem to absorb everything from hers until all of the cells were dead. That was when she
decided to include Vegeta in her little experiment.
She walked out and called him into the lab where he was all to happy to go tho he didn't
show it. He wanted to find out about this mysterious woman.
"Well woman...What's her story?", he questioned.
"Vegeta I need a couple of samples of your blood.", she said.
"For what?', he frowned.
"Would you just do it please it's important Vegeta. I'll explain it all later.", she frowned.
"Fine onna. Make it quick.", he growled a little and held out his arm.
She immediately drew the blood into the viles. Afterwards she removed the needle and
began to run test on his blood mixing with hers. What she noticed surprised her quite a bit.
It seemed as tho even his blood was fighting against hers to keep it from absorbing the life
from it. It might have taken longer but her blood still managed to absorb everything from
his. But not without a few losses.
"Hmm. Interesting. If I could just find a way to amplify this. I might be able to come up
with something.", she said to herself mostly.
Bulma worked on the project the rest of the day and all through the night.
Gambit was almost there but he had grown rather tired and knew he needed some rest. He
climbed a tall tree and rested there for the night.
Bulma was growing a bit tired. She had been experimenting with different things all night
trying to find a way to solve her problem. But nothing seemed to work. It would hold for a
little while but then in the end it would still end up devouring whatever it touched.
By the time morning came she was so tired she had passed out on the desk by the
microscope.
Vegeta came in to check on her since she didn't come to bed last night. He found her
sleeping at the desk and saw the other woman still resting as well.
"It had better be well worth it woman, you keeping my mate out all night.", he frowned
slightly.
He was gonna move her but he'd wake her if he did so he just grabbed a blanket and pulled
it over her.
The woman on the cot had started mumbling something in her sleep.
Vegeta walked over and listened at her for a moment.
"Mmmm....no.....mama...please...I wanna...let go...It...it hurts....Nooooo......NOOOOOO!!!",
she screamed out and bolted upright on the cot. For a moment she forgot where she was.
Then everything slowly came back to her.
She sat up and glanced at Vegeta.
"Something wrong?", she asked.
"Woman what's your story?", he asked.
"None of your business.", she frowned.
He smirked for some part of him understood what it was she was going through because he
had gone through it before.
"I hope it's well worth it.", he said then turned and left.
"So do I.", she said lowly.
Corporation I vision travels to its inner dwellers.
