Chapter 15
Who Am I?
Three months had passed from that fateful day and it had been the same most of those days. On the side one odd thing happened. Talana had refused to speak with or see her brother since his change. That didn't stop her though from sending Tobias by to check on him. Once a month he had stopped by to check on how Vegeta's training was going. But Vegeta was usually training so he ended up in Bulma's lab. They weren't sure how it happened but soon Tobias was coming by far more often to see Bulma and namely her lab.
Bulma built the gravity room for Vegeta with added adjustments thanks to his constant criticism. His appetite expanded as well until Bulma just gave up cooking and shopping and had it delivered and prepared by robots.
Vegeta had discovered how easily Bulma was to piss off and he took every opportunity that presented itself. During the day that is. During the night they indulged in another type of arrangement. Bulma gave up with her study of ki. She decided to drop it because of Vegeta's continuous demands for the improvement GT. On the side one odd thing happened. Talana had refused to speak with or see her brother since he had left the manor. That didn't stop her though from sending Tobias by to check on him.
Once a month he would stop by to check on how Vegeta's training was going or so he said. But Vegeta was usually training so he ended up in Bulma's lab when the mutual love of science was discovered. They weren't sure how it happened but soon Tobias was coming by far more often to see Bulma and namely her lab. During this time Bulma and Tobias developed a curious bond. Though her relationship if possible got worse with Talana. She also in this time discovered Talana and Tobias were lovers. And that Tobias was not her bodyguard as she first thought.
Today was one of those days were Bulma and Tobias were together in the lab working. Tobias was working on some huge machine that he kept saying the compastiers were messing up the troopcanters. Bulma was scrolling through her computer files sorting out the data she had gathered from Radiz's scouter a year ago. What made this day so odd though was that Vegeta was there looming over Bulma while she worked.
"I am not fixing the gravity room Vegeta. Now go away." Bulma said not looking up from the screen.
"Yes I can see that flipping around on the internet. Very constructive." Vegeta criticized crossing his arms over his chest angrily. Vegeta watched as her eyes glared at him out of the corner of her eyes in the computer screen. She didn't move her head but Vegeta could see her hands freeze over the keys.
"If you want it fixed so bad ask Tobias." She growled her hands flying over the key-broad faster than before. Vegeta scowled but turned his attention to Tobias. He walked angrily over to his sire who was under the machine on so sort of scooter thing.
"Fix it!" He commanded looming over him.
"Go fuck yourself." Tobias muttered from under the invention.
"WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU SAY JUST SAY TO ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Vegeta screamed grabbing one of Tobias's feet. Tobias looked up as he was dragged from beneath the console startled. He pulled off the headphones he was wearing and looked at Vegeta curiously.
"Did you say something?" Tobias asked. Vegeta stopped to listen to the chorus of the song which Tobias had evidently been singing along with.
"Fix. The. Gravity. Room." Vegeta grated out letting Tobias's foot fall from his hand. Tobias gave him a long hard look from his floor scooter.
"No." Tobias stated calmly before pulling himself smoothly back under the machine with one hand. Vegeta saw red.
"Why you little bastard!" he growled through his teeth his ki flaring up around him.
"My parents were married when I was conceived. But if memory serves your parents were not. In fact yours had to get married because you were conceived." Tobias stated smoothly. Tobias knew that the subject of his parents was off limits and for one-split-second Vegeta looked like he was going to explode. But then he calmly powered down, reached over, and calmly lifted the giant machine up that Tobias was under and began to toss it easily from hand to hand.
"Now." Vegeta snarled. Tobias glared at him unimpressed.
"If you're so desperate to get it fixed then go ask Talana." Bulma who had been watching the whole thing looked suddenly confused.
"Why would he go ask Talana? I mean how would she help?"
"Talana is a scientist too." Tobias replied.
"Oh." Bulma said shocked secretly she was disappointed she had thought science was the one area she had up on Talana.
"Are you crazy!" Vegeta hissed interrupting Bulma's musings. "Talana will put something in it so that she can control the gravity whenever she pleases. It will be over a million pounds one minute and the next-100 the next. I am not putting my life and my training in her hands. In other words NO WAY IN HELL!"
Throughout Vegeta's outburst Bulma had continued scrolling through the information on Radditz's scouter. And from the corner of his eye Vegeta caught sight of a familiar and beloved face. He dropped the 10-ton machine on top of Tobias in shock. Running to the counsel and shoving Bulma's chair and all into a wall.
Bulma bounced against the wall hold on to the armrests to not fall. Bulma quickly recovering from the shock of hitting the wall and screamed Tobias's name getting up and running to where his body lay crushed beneath the machine. At the second when Bulma reached Tobias the machine rose. (Picture Mirai Trunks when he is coming out of the hole with Freeza's energy ball). With this Tobias sat up holding the machine on his finger.
"What the fuck is your problem Vegeta?!" Tobias yelled at him across the room.
"How the fuck do you work this thing." Vegeta shouted in frustration as he tried desperately to scroll through the pictures completely ignoring his friend. Tobias gently set down the machine and walked past a still stunned Bulma to Vegeta. He grabbed the mouse and gently scrolled down. Vegeta grabbed the mouse back from Tobias and viciously shoved him away and started scrolling upward. Bulma recovering from her shock walked stormed up to the two males.
"Okay!" Bulma yelled. "What the fuck is going on here?! And why is Vegeta acting like a fuckin' maniac?"
"Hell if I know." Tobias commented calmly. "If you ask me he's just lo- ." Tobias froze as Vegeta stopped scrolling at a picture of a female Saiyan. "It can't be!" Tobias gasped shock apparent as his usual solemn features. "Its Akasha!" He whispered.
"The women from Queen of the Damned?" Bulma questioned. (AN: God We LOVE that movie. You have to see it; because in my ex-aunts words its da' Bomb. You literally have not lived until you see this movie. Um sorry back to the story.)
"What?" Tobias said still dazzled. "No, that's a fictional character from that friend of Talana's, Anne's book." He said this while his eyes remained glued to the screen as he pulled out his cell phone. He quickly pressed a button on his speed dial and a picture of Talana riding some man on the screen. "Talana." Tobias said faintly. She looked up annoyed.
"What the hell do you want?" She snarled at him not pausing in her pace.
"Code red on Vegeta." Tobias stated before shutting his cell phone. A millisecond later Talana appeared.
"Okay what the-." Once again another member of the three friends were struck speechless at the sight of the female Saiyan that graced the large screen. Bulma was fed up with the three family members.
"What the fuck is the deal with this Saiyan for Kame's sake she died a couple thousand years ago." Bulma yelled furiously.
"That fits." Talana whispered staring at the face of a lightly tan female with flowing black hair, deep black eyes, and an almost cunning smirk. She wore a small golden headpiece, shinning pear armor, and a necklace with a large blue stone hung on it.
Vegeta who had been staring at the portrait silently through the whole scene clicked on the link for more information. His eyes flashed across the screen taking in every word. Abruptly he shot up from his seat whirled upon his three companions and calmly but with a voice full of repressed hatred, longing and sadness said.
"Don't follow me." Then he flew through then roof. While his friend, only family, and lover looked on.
3 Hours Later
"Look ok I now he's a big boy and can take care of him self but I got this really bad feeling that he needs someone right now. I need to find him. He could do something really stupid out there on his own. I now this is crazy but I NEED to find him now!" Bulma ranted pacing the floor.
After Vegeta had left; Talana had guided a hysterical Bulma into the living room leaving Tobias to download the files from Radditz's scouter into his own system, unknown to Bulma of course. Now Talana and Tobias were sitting on Bulma's couch drinking tea courtesy of Bulma's mother while Bulma paced frantically in front of them practically tearing her hair out with worry over Vegeta.
"Bulma." Tobias said standing up and gently taking her arm and guiding her to a nearby chair. "You have to stop worrying about Vegeta like you said he's a big boy and can take care of himself." He told her calmly.
"But he was hysterical!" Bulma yelled. "We don't know what he will do in this state of mind! And I don't even know why or even where he is."
"Bulma." Talana said calmly standing up sitting her tea down and going to Bulma. "I don't like you and I'm certainly not going to pretend I do like you. Because as far as I'm concerned you are merely a small distraction to my brother and a pain in my ass. But I will put this simply and slowly so your small mind can comprehend this. Vegeta is not a child he is a full grown fully capable man though I do understand how a lot of the time that is hard to believe." Talana stated coldly. "Vegeta has lived in the woods for years at a time without once emerging and aside from being closer to his Neanderthal side is no worse for the wear." Talana returned to her chair and resumed drinking her tea.
"Years?" Bulma said looking confused.
"You must have realized by now." Talana said between sips of tea. "That all three of us have very odd concepts of time. To us years are days and centuries are months. That is what happens when you hang around with vampire book writers a lot; time gets distorted and a lot of my best friends write stories about vampires so don't you go insulting them." Talana snapped when she saw the look on Bulma's face. "Now why don't you go retrieve my brother, fuck him, and then have him report back to the manor."
"But I thought you didn't want me to go after him." Bulma said making a show of ignoring her remark.
"That was when he was violent."
"He was violent!" Bulma screamed. "Did he hurt anyone?
"No." Tobias said curtly.
"He is in the west side of the black forest sitting on a still smoking log in the middle of a burned out clearing staring into space wondering how the hell is life has gone down the tubes." Talana said in one breath as Bulma stared at her. "We're very close."
Bulma shot a glare at the couple before leaving. She rushed out the door grabbing a dark blue windbreaker as she went. She pulled a motorcycle capsule out of her pocket and she was off to search the night.
***
Bulma found Vegeta sitting in the exact solution Talana had described with in an hour of searching. She still wasn't sure how she had found his so fast. But she figured that riding at break neck speed had something to do with it.
She stepped over the log sitting down next to him and waited quietly. She seemed to know that he would speak when he was ready. She wrapped her windbreaker around herself taking one glance at him.
Vegeta sat staring at the night sky totally lost in thought. He looked as if he could only see one star in they heavens and was trying to bring it closer, oblivious to anything else. She looked up at the sky to waiting for him to speak. As long as he was near she had no more worries of his safety. But she did have a huch that he was the one that had set the woods a flame in his frustration.
They sat there for what felt like hours and Bulma was sure her entire lower half would fail if she tried to stand when it happened. Vegeta turned to her look at her.
"I'm a vampire." He stated calmly.
