There was a light rumbling heard then it was gone in an instant. A bunker appeared out of
nowhere in the field. It had opened completely and Gambit stared on wide eyed for a moment at
the sight of massive storage tanks appearing out of the ground slowly.
"Mon dieu.", he said shocked.
"Amazin'.", Rouge said equally shocked.
"Ya'll really are full of surprizes ain't ya now.", Rogue smiled.
"Why thank you.", Bulma smiled.
"Yeah yeah big deal. Go ahead and refuel them so they can be on their merry little way.", Vegeta
stated his voice dripping with sarcasm.
"Ignore him.", Bulma stated and walked past Vegeta over to one of the storage units.
"Vegeta. I need you to come and hook them up please.", she said.
"Heh. I thought you were ignoring me.", he smirked.
"Oh never mind all o' this. What you need done?", Rogue asked.
"Uhm..well...I need that large hose there to be hooked up to your fuel line. And then secured in
place.", she said.
"No problem.", Rogue smiled.
"Uhm. Rogue I don't know if you wanna do that. Those Fuel hoses are awfully heavy and not only
that you have to be able to hold it up while screwing in the fasteners.", she said.
"I can do it.", she smiled.
It was now Bulma's turn to be amazed. And Vegeta's a bit too.
"Let her do it Petite. If Rogue say she can handle it she can handle it.", Gambit smiled.
"Uhm alright.", she said and watched as Rogue flew over hoisted up the large hose easily then
flew back over to the ships tank and opened it securing the hose line of the fueling tank to the fuel
tank itself.
Rogue slipped it on and screwed it down with as much grace as a cat walking out on the limb of a
tree.
"Ahlright it's all done. Now what you need meh ta do?", she asked.
"That's it the rest is automated. Just punch in a few buttons over here.", walks over to a control
panel located near one of the tanks and begins hitting a few buttons.
"And then wait until it's done.", she said.
"Gambit wanna know how long dis gone take Petit?", he questioned.
"Oh I'd say no more than 2 hours tops.", she said.
"Two hours?", he said shocked.
"Dat be a might long time for Gambit to wait.", he said.
"Sorry but that's as fast as she goes.", Bulma said.
"Alright petit. Dun worry bout it. Gambit will just have to improvise.", he stated.
"Gambit what you got up yer sleeve now?", Rogue questioned.
"Oh you'll see soon enough Cher. After all Gambit still owe you dat picnic lunch.", he smiled.
"Yes you do.", she smiled.
"You just go and find you something nice to wear cher and leave the rest up to Gambit.", he
smiled.
"Ahlright, Remy. ::smiles:: But how much time I got?", she questioned.
"Take as much time as you need Cher. Not that you need it. Gambit tink you look good enough
as is.", he smiled.
"You ole charmer.", she smiled and hugged him around his clothes then put a gloved hand to his
mouth and kissed the back of it.
"Well if Gambit keep gettin' dis much attention he be even more charmin' for his cherie.", he
smiled.
She just smiled and flew off inside of the ship to get a change of clothes. What little there was.
"Now Gambit you gone have to come up with a way to get her to where you want without the
ship.", he frowned slightly.
"Uhm excuse me. Mr. Gambit but what exactly are you talking about?", Bulma questioned.
"No Mr. Petit just plain old Gambit will do.", he said.
Vegeta growled slightly he'd had about enough of this red headed black eyed freak. Standing
there flirting with his onna.
He marched up between the two of them and laid down the law.
"Alright frenchy keep your distance from my mate. And stop calling her that ridiculous name.",
he frowned.
Gambit just stared at him for a moment before chuckling in amusement.
"What are you laughing at fool?", Vegeta sneered.
"You mon ami. ::smirks:: You remind Gambit of someone he know back home.", he smiled.
"'Cept he most times call Gambit Cajun or bub.", Gambit smirked.
"I'm not surprised. Probably doesn't want you hanging around his woman either.", Vegeta stated.
"Vegeta please. He was just being polite. And last time I checked I didn't need you interfering in
my work.", she stated with a slight frown and a hand on her hip while tapping her foot slightly.
"Onna...if he calls you that one more time I'll blast him.", he frowned.
"Vegeta please. You'll do no such thing.", she stated. ~Here we go again. Another of his false
bravado tirades.~, she smiled inwardly.
"Give me one good reason why not.", he stated daring her to defy him.
"Hah I'll give you two. One is the Gravity Machine and the other is dinner.", she stated.
He thought for a moment and decided to take that bet.
"Onna please. If I need food that looney mother of yours can fix it. And if my machine breaks I'll
just get your father to fix it.", he smiled.
"Really. You won't get either of those things right now. Because mother and father are both
currently off on Safari.", she smirked.
"What? You're lying.", he stated.
"Hardly. Dad went to a convention over seas and he took mother with him. After the convention
they have plans to get in a little down time. And since mother loves animals father decided he
would take her on Safari.", she smiled.
~Well it was half true anyway.~, she thought to herself.
Her mother did love animals and her father did have a convention he had to attend. And he did
decide to take them on Safari. It just so happens tho that the Safari was in Japan at the local Zoo.
Her mother had called her earlier and told her she was taking the boys to the Zoo for the day. So
technically she wouldn't be back till later on that night. And hopefully if they did show up Vegeta
wouldn't notice their arrival.
Vegeta just grunted and growled angrily then marched off to his gravity chamber for a much
needed beat down. Well essentially that's what was gonna happen. Him ending up beating the
work bots down right before beating up on himself as what he called training.
"Gambit dink dat one be wound a bit to tight.", he said.
"Heh. You're probably right.", Bulma smirked.
"But it doesn't matter he'll be over it soon enough.", she said.
"Now back to our conversation. What exactly was it you needed?", she asked.
"Well Gambit was gonna take his cher flying in the ship to secluded spot and have a nice quiet
picnic and do a few other things. But unfortunately the ship not gone be ready in time for dat.",
he stated.
"Oh is that all. I have hundreds of capsule cars you can borrow. If you can fly that flying one of
mines should be no problem. Now how much space are we talking here?", she asked.
"Gambit dink he need enough space for two warm bodies in the back plus place to carry all the
food.", he stated.
"Well I'll give you the LX27. It's big enough for all of that.", she smiled.
"Gambit think that sound tres bien petit.", he smiled.
"Uhm Thank you.", she smiled.
"No prob. Now if you could just do Gambit one more favor.", he said.
"Sure what ya need.", she smiled.
"Well...ma cher don't really have that many changes of nice clothes to wear. And Gambit want
her to look nice. So maybe you take Rogue out and help her get something nice. And just take it
out of what Gambit owe you.", he said.
"Not a problem. Matter a fact. If she wants to We can leave in a half hour that will give me just
enough time to put any workings I have going on in my lab on hold and make sure Vegeta's
straight before I leave.", she smiled.
"Merci beaucoup.", he smiled.
Right now bulma was thanking herself that she was such a genius. She knew at least 12 different
languages. Including Saiyago. (Saiyago - Saiyan language)
"You're welcome.", she smiled.
Just then Rogue comes walking out with a slightly disappointed look on her face.
"Uhm Remy.", she calls lowly.
"What is it Cher?", he smiled.
"Well...in all my haste to get here...seems I didn't pack enough clothes. So don't exactly have
nothing to nice to wear out for ya.", she stated.
"Oh Cher don't you know. Gambit dink of everthing.", he smiled.
"What you mean Remy?", she questioned.
"Petite here gone take my sweet Cherie shopping.", he smiled.
"Oh?", she said.
"Oui.", he smiled.
"Oh Remy you are absolutely tha best.", she grinned and flew over and hugged him.
"Gambit do try.", he smiled.
"An you do a fine job of it.", she grinned.
"Why thank you ma cherie.", he smiled.
"You're welcome.", she smiled and slipped back from his grasp.
"So uhm when would you be ready to go Bulma?", she questioned.
"When ever you are Rogue.", she smiled.
"Well how 'bout right now. Not like I got anythin pressin.", she smiled.
"Now it is. Let me go and check on Vegeta before I leave then we can go.", she smiled.
"Alright. I'll be right here.", she grinned.
"Okay.", she smiled and headed off to the G.C.
She banged on the door. But no answer came.
She banged again louder and longer and kept calling his name.
"VEGETA VEGEEEETAAA! Open up. YOU DON"T OPEN UP I"M GONNA SHUT IT OFF
OUT HERE!", she shouted through the metal door.
He knew she was out there but he was enjoying making her mad or so he thought.
"Alright fine don't answer. I"m leaving. See you tonight.", she grinned and turned then started
walking off.
She didn't make it more than 2 steps away before the door opened and out his royal gruffness
came.
"WOMAN! What's the meaning of this? What the heck do you mean see you tonight? Where do
you think you're going?", he frowned.
She just smiled.
"Well that got you out of there didn't it." she smirked.
"Onna. If you weren't my mate I'd....", is cut off.
"You'd what?", she smirked slightly and leaned forward staring into his dark eyes.
"Oh Vegeta.", ::sighs:: "I was only kidding. I'll be back way before tonight. I should be back some
time around 4:30 or 5 this evening.", she said.
"Onna that's still to late. What are you going to be doing that's going to take you almost 6 and a
half hours?", he questioned.
"Shopping of course.", she stated matter a factly.
"I should have known. That's the only other thing beside me and that lab of yours that could keep
you out so late.", he smirked.
"Don't flatter yourself.", she smiled.
"No need to. You do that whenever I hear my name screaming from your lips.", he chuckled.
She just blushed and walked off a little peeved at him.
"Whatever. I'm gone. I just wanted to let you know before I left.", she stated.
He smirked and grabbed her arm then pulled her back to him.
"You want something Vegeta?", she questioned.
"Don't think you're getting out of being punished. I will deal with you tonight.", he stated with a
vicious smirk.
Bulma kinda shook inwardly at his sadistic look on his face.
"Hah you don't scare me.", she stated tho not to sure if she believed herself.
"Of course not. But that will be rectified tonight.", he smiled and released her then turned and
headed back inside of his gravity chamber closing the door behind him.
Bulma was dumb founded for a moment. What had just happened. What did she just miss? She
frowned and shook it off.
"I'll deal with that big head later.", she frowned and walked off back over to where Bulma was.
She pulled a capsule car out of her jacket pocket and threw it out a few feet in front of her.
Gambit and Rogue were amazed to say the least.
"Mon dieu. Gambit wanna know how you do dat?", he questioned.
"I think ahm gonna have to second that.", Rogue stated.
"::smiles:: Oh a secret of my Companies. We've learned to capsulize things as large as that ship
there of yours. ::Smiles:: It's all a matter of atoms and molecules and knowing what and how to
deal with them.", she smiled.
"Gambit dink McCoy would enjoy chattin' wit you.", Gambit stated.
"Got that right.", Rogue said.
"The way you both have spoken of him I think I'd really like to meet him as well.", she smiled.
"Well suga' perhaps you will. You welcomed to fly back with us if you want. 'Sides. I think the
professor would like to meet the woman who helped out one of his students.", she smiled.
"Gambit agree wit dat.", he said.
