"What?" Bulma asked puzzled. She seemed more confused then horrified so Vegeta continued on.
"I lied when I said I didn't know Yamcha was the Black Flame. I've always known because I am him." He stated calmly watching her face closely. "That has been my name ever since I set that priest on fire on the church cross in Vatician City. Talana gave it to me jokinly and it stuck."
"Vegeta stop this you're freaking me out." She seemed calm but there was an underlining sense of fear in her eyes. Vegeta sat up straighter his face shifting in to a concerned frown.
"I apologize, I only want you to know what you are getting yourself into." Bulma froze as she finally realized he wasn't kidding. "No that's a lie too. I want to talk to someone that hasn't been with me all these years and can see things as fresh as I see them." He was sad now directing his soft gaze to away from Bulma's eyes.
"I was born the same day as Charlemange, it's the only reason I remember my day of birth. I don't know what it matters anymore but I'm French, or I thought I was." He still hadn't looked back at Bulma. She sat in silence next to him seeming not to move or breathe. Vegeta paused to think of what to say next. "I have only loved 3 people in my long lifetime. My mother, my step-mother, and my sister. At one time when I was still a child I also loved my father but as I grew older I learned to hate him for not preventing my family's destruction. Even now though I know he couldn't have prevented it even if he had known what his actions would bring somewhere deep inside I still blame him, for what I told you about Frieza was true, but just not complete.
"When I was nine my father had been given the family shipping company. Back then it was like becoming a full king instead of a prince. My mother and I were out at the market getting dinner when Frieza saw me. He sensed a power aura around me and wanted to change me into one of them. A power aura just makes it so that the person
grows to power faster and the ones that posses them in life can become the strongest vampires around not compared to ancients.
"He made my father think he needed a partner in the business. He then made my father go on a four-year trip to China to keep that partnership. I remember him telling us that he would be back soon and that nothing was going to happen to us. Three days later my mother was killed by Frieza to gain custody of me. I spent four-years of hell on Frieza's estate till I was of the age of 13.
"First it was only being locked in the basement with no food, water, and light. Then the beatings, just for fun, when they wanted to teach me something or another, or when I did something that displeased either Frieza or his vampire priest Zarbon. They made me watch when they fed and they don't feed nicely, slaughtering families one at a time just so they can watch their family member's die.
"They wanted to change me when I got to the age of 29 when I would be at the height of my power. But when my father returned they gave up on me. They knew that I would make a powerful enemy when I was older and destroy them so they abandoned all hope of changing me. And I was so happy all I wanted to do was live my short life as my father had and enjoy every bit of it too, even dying when my time came. At this time I still loved him though my years in Frieza's custody had changed me from the once lighthearted child in my mother's arms.
"When he returned he took the news of my mother's death and locked himself away for three days. I know he loved my mother but he could never admit for a man of the time that he so loved any woman. Especially one of 'lower blood.' You see my mother used to be a maid on his father's estate. They screwed around and my mother became pregnant with me, but my father denied me as his own. My mother went over his head to my grandmother who insisted my father pay for his mistakes and marry my mother. They eventually grew to love one another.
"After his 3 days of mourning for mother he emerged from his room and went to town, that day he married another. Deanne Conily, a lovely blond wife closer to my age then his. And even though she was my mother's replacement she became like a second mother as well as a companion and friend when my father was away. That was when I started to hate him by the way. He said that everything would be fine and that nothing would happen to us. He lied.
"It seems stupid now to hate him he couldn't have stopped it. My father may not have had a power aura but he could easily pass it to his children. That is one of the reasons Frieza let me go and didn't change me back then, there was a promise of another to steal. I didn't know this at the time but in two years I knew I had been a fool, not just my father.
"Two years later I had a half-sister Talora, it means bright moon. I saw her as family but also the child of a disgrace to my mother's memory and to what I had gone through to get back to my father. Also I resented having to care for he when her 'nana' wasn't able to because Deanne was sickly from Tal's 45 hour labor.
"Actually this may sound odd but I was more scared of that baby than I was of Frieza, she creeped me out through her constant staring. I saw an ageless wisdom in her eyes that I had only seen once before in a guard at Frieza's estate who later turned out to be Tobias. Later we discovered it was because Talana's mind was the strongest in the universe giving her such powers as telekinesis, the ability to read minds along with too infinitely powerful beings, but I'll explain that in a minute.
"Two weeks after Talora's birth, I was returning home from visiting one of my 'girlfriends,' when I tripped over a body just outside the house." Vegeta paused as he heard Bulma's quick intake of breath next to him. 'So she listens.' He thought carrying on. "It was my dog Henry, I had gotten him the day after my father married. I picked him up and hurried inside to ask my parents what had happened."
"I found my father and stepmother murdered in their bedroom. I saw their ruined bodies with huge gashes on their throats and knew at once who had done it. I ran to find my sister only to find a note written in blood, most likely my parents. It was from Frieza telling me not to worry she would be safe with him. He had taken Talora to take my place at his side. I sold everything to find him and vowed to track him to the end of the earth and kill him.
"I spent my next 10 years learning every type of marshal arts, weaponry, and strategy preparing to save Talora. I traveled the world twice over following any small trail Frieza left behind in his wake. I searched to save Talora not really because I loved her, make no mistake I do love my sister and that has changed but only to grow as I got to know her. But I had to find her to rescue her from the fate I had once faced, to let her live a safe and normal mortal life that was now lost to me. I had not yet become a vampire but in being alone my human side had all but dissapered.
"I found her when I was 26 the age you see now before you. Tobias who was at the time Talora's bodyguard and gaurdian approached me, he and I had sparred while I was still under Friezes thumb. At the time I knew of the existence of vampires but was not aware of the fact that he was among the damned.
He told me he wanted to meet me and talk later that night on how to save Talora. I met him for I knew I was going to need some help to save my sister and I thought it better to use Frieza's left hand man. He changed me into a vampire against my will when we met that night at the palace of Charlamange. After so long trying to avoid my fate and to save Talora from it, one minute of true battle against Tobias and I had failed us both.
"I spent the next decade and a half training for the fight alone. I hated Tobias more than I had ever thought possible. He had given me the strength to defeat Frieza yes but he had also killed my only hope of a life outside of the undead world of horrors. When I saw Tobias again it was 10 years after he changed me and it wasn't him really. He astral projected to me asking for help. Zarbon had beaten and imprisoned Tobias somewhere and he could not protect my sister from Zarbon when he attacked.
"I went to my sister and found her cut, broken, and physically assaulted in an alley left to die. I didn't think, I changed her into one of the undead. I took her to the home of our birth to hide her until she was healed. Tobias showed up the next day to see her. I would have killed him just seeing him but when my sister ran out and embraced him, I knew then that he and my sister were lovers, not the physical kind mind you Talora was a virgin when Zarbon raped her. I was going to make Tobias's death last for interfering in my families business. I can't blame her for choosing Tobias over me, she never knew I existed and she loved and trusted Tobias. Talora changed her name when she was changed into a vampire to Talana and it was Talana that chose him over me. Talana means dark moon by the way.
"Talana brought Tobias and I together. We banded together because of the two forces within Talana that I mentioned earlier. I won't go into details about them because sooner or later you will meet one of them. All I will say is that since they invaded Talana's body they have become major pains in my ass. Anyway we all banded together to kill Frieza and Zarbon hundred years to the day after Talana had been changed. We even had a party, a massacre I guess you would call it. A few more centuries after that Frieza and Zarbon disappeared from the radar. And now we know why. They were in space.
"The woman in your scouter's database Akasha, is my mother. I know this with all of my soul; they are one in the same. Your information showed that my mother was the eldest child of the king of Vegitasii over a thousand years ago. She was to be married to the first Super-Sayjian Broilli. She was rumored to have visions of the future and to have at one pint become a Super-Sayjian as well. She didn't want to marry Broilli and disappeared, but before she left she told of one last vision.
"She saw her son arise from a planet no one had ever seen to become a golden image of power and death. This son would only arise to his destiny when all of Vegitasii was destroyed and only he and another lived. My interpretation of this is that my mother saw me arise form Earth to become a Super-Sayjian, the most powerful warrior in the galaxy. She saw that I would only reach this when her planet and all but one other Sayjian had been destroyed.
"I believe she left her home to find earth and to give birth to me. But I know for a fact she was human so she must have found the Dragonballs and wished herself human to hide. She may have even chosen my father for his power aura he would give me when I was to be born. But I don't believe that's the only reason why she chose him because I remember her saying that my father was the only man she could ever love. Frieza must have found my mother's ship and used it to leave Earth. And now I know that it was he that destroyed my home planet.
"My mother would tell me stories when I was very young. About another world and the adventures the royal family of that world had been in. And how the oldest child was a powerful fighter, and had reached, the golden power she called it.
"She was trying to tell me about where I came from. My grandfather that could play the lye and had taught her to fight, my uncle that shared so many adventures with my mother, and even my grandmother that had formed a treaty with a warring house and saved their world. She was trying to tell me and I didn't listen to her!" Vegeta cried out in anguish slamming his fist into the ground causing a minor hole to appear. He didn't rise from his bent position only hid his head in his knees crying. His shoulders shook with is silent cries of agony, the pain too much to bare.
A soft but firm arm fell over his shoulders holding him steady as Vegeta continued to cry. He looked but for the first time through tear streaked eyes to Bulma holding him. She was calm and almost removed except for the pained looked in side her eyes. She knew his pain but not how to stop it.
"Why Bulma? Why after so long does this hurt so much? I have killed and been killed and kept living my life. So why does this knowledge of my past and my mother hurt so much? Tell me that, why is my life so doomed? How can I live like this?" He pleaded to her his self-control lost to him in his time of need. Bulma looked at him steadily in silence waiting till he was ready to hear.
"Vegeta, life is pain. It's the price you pay for life. The price someone pays to give it and the pain it brings to live it. No matter how old the pain will always hurt the same amount as if you had just felt it. You just found out that your mother gave everything she ever had to bring you into this world. She gave her life for you." Vegeta gasped in air as the impact of her words hit.
"But she didn't give her life to have you fail her now. She gave it so you could be what you have always been meant to be." Bulma continued. "You have faced so many trials and they have all made you stronger, and by some weird twist of fate you are now fulfilling your destiny when you're ready too. Don't you see? Planet Vegitasii has been destroyed with only Goku left alive. This is your time to become a Super-Sayjian just like your mother always knew you would. This is the time you kill Frieza and make him pay for what he's done."
Vegeta watched Bulma's face change into a look of hardened anger as she spoke that last sentence. He knew then just how much he loved her. She knew him and saw through his walls. She seemed more apart of him then any other person. He didn't think he kissed her. Slowly lingering on her lips as she kissed him back. They pulled apart eyes down cast then meeting again in quite acknowledgment.
"Thank you." Vegeta whispered kissing her once again, quickly this time. A small and peaceful smile crossed her face as she looked at him.
"Thank you for letting me in." She paused smiling bigger. "So.you're French?" Vegeta looked at her dumbfounded for a second. Then they both burst out laughing. His deep and strange laughter booming with her own loud musical laughter. It took them almost 5 minutes to stop but by then they both felt better.
"You know I love you Vegeta don't you?" Bulma whispered directing her gaze to the stars again.
"I know." Vegeta replied looking to the sky also, his tone so shallow it was almost sad. "But you must realize a life spent loving me can only bring you some great pain that even I have not felt."
"I know that there are some things that I may never get from you. But I get more being with you than not so I think I'm going to stick around." Bulma said looping her arm around his waist, resting her head on his shoulder. He dropped his arm around her waist also holding her close in the cool night.
"This is going to be one hell of a relationship." He muttered pulling Bulma to her feet.
"Ha! You just said we're in a relationship!" Bulma chirped happily. Vegeta looked at her coldly.
"You're not going to let me live that one down are you?" He asked scowling at her smiling face.
"Nope!" She answered happily, almost bouncing as she spoke.
"That's what I thought." He growled transporting them both to Capsule Corp. They reappeared in the living room separating as they saw who was there.
"Hello Vegeta." Talana's icy voice said watching her brother through slited eyes. She had her arms crossed over her chest as if she had been waiting for him all this time. Tobias on the other hand barely even looked up from his tea and novel.
"Taylor. If you're going to continue to be mad at me I think it is wise that you tell me why now." Vegeta stated calmly to his glaring sister.
"Something's going to happen and I don't like it." She growled looking from Vegeta to Bulma and back again.
"Well if you're worried about me and Vegeta dating, too late." Bulma said hugging Vegeta around the waist and not releasing him. Vegeta didn't move, the only sign that he knew she was there was his glancing down at her to see what she was doing. She was baiting Talana to talk.
"Why you little bastard! It's one thing to fuck a whore but to start a relationship with one is just-" Talana was cut off by Bulma lunging for her screaming, only Vegeta holding her back from tearing Talana apart.
"You did not just call me a whore you fucking SLUT!" Bulma screeched trying to pull away from Vegeta's grasp.
"A slut am I? Why you blue-haired-brother-stealing-bitch! I'll rip your eyes out!" Talana cried. Before she could make a grab at Bulma, Tobias had yanked a struggling Talana down on his lap and was there holding her back much like Vegeta was Bulma. Problem was that Talana was much stronger than Bulma.
"Both of you stop this." Vegeta said in a board tone. Letting go of Bulma he watched as she spun to look at him in mid fall, landing on her butt but facing him.
"Fine, I got what I wanted anyway." Bulma said perfectly calm rising from the floor. Talana was still mad though.
"And what the fuck did you get bitch!" Talana yelled kicking at Tobias still trying to reach Bulma.
"I got the reason you're mad at Vegeta." She said flopping down in a nearby chair. Talana froze the anger falling away from her face as she thought. Tobias let go and picked up his tea again as Talana sat up.
"One you're upset that your brother can die now which is why you have been sending Tobias around to check on him. His being able to die must be very hard on an immortal sister like yourself." Bulma explained from her seat calmly.
"You told her!" Talana screeched in disbelief. Vegeta just shrugged.
"You don't like the idea also that I am stealing your brother away. Him setting himself in a relationship that so far seems permanent with someone must be very hard so you can't accept that change. All of that is understandable. I just want you to know that I have no intention of taking your brother from you or interfering in any of your lives. What happen happens and you'll just have to deal with that." Bulma stated now paying more attention to her nails than to the conversation. Talana thought for another second.
"You're right." Talana said at last. "I need to learn to accept change. And I may not like this part but I do like the end result."
"Talana what are you talking about?" Vegeta asked slowly watching his sister closely. Talana froze.
"My bother having a happy short life?" Talana said carefuly watching Vegeta also. Vegeta stepped closer to Talana making her fall backwards into the couch.
"You're lying." Vegeta breathed less than half a foot away from his sister's nervous face.
"Leave her be Vegeta she won't even tell me why she's acting like this. You don't stand a chance of getting it from her." Tobias said still not looking up from his novel. Vegeta face snapped to the side to glare at his old sire. He studied him carefully looking her any signs of a bluff. 'Hmmm he doesn't know. Whatever it is it must happen in the future and she wants it to happen. Then why is she so fucking pissed?' Vegeta snapped back to his sister who had by now recovered herself and looked right back at into his stare.
Vegeta stood up shrugging. "What does it matter? I'll know soon enough. Now if you don't mind I'm going to train." With that he spun on his heel and walked out of the room. For a minute everyone looked after him dumbstruck. All three of the remaining people looked at each other.
"Has anyone else noticed that he changes his mind far to much and then he never changes his mind on other things?" Bulma asked looking at Talana angrily.
"Yes you'll have to get use to that." Talana said forgetting for a second who she was talking to. "Well I guess we will be going now." Before Bulma could say a thing both Talana and Tobias disappeared from the room. Bulma sighed sitting back further in her seat.
Looking around she saw that only one light had been left on. The hollow glow making the rest of the house more like a black tomb than a home. Bulma looked at the light in thought. Her dark blue eyes narrowed against the glare. Her slim arms crossed over her chest. She sat totally still and silent lost in her own thoughts.
"I guess the quick change of heart runs in the family." She muttered distastefully. "Guess it really doesn't matter. What does matter is finding a way to tell him the truth."
(AN: Bulma has something to tell, but it's not what you think. She has more to say to Vegeta then any of you can guess. But please let me know what you think so far. And sorry Vegeta was a bit OOC but how would you feel if your entire life was turned upside down.?And review or we wont update. We didn't get many reviews in the last chapter so REVIEW!!!!!!!!! Or you will regret it.)

"What?" Bulma asked puzzled. She seemed more confused then horrified so Vegeta continued on.
"I lied when I said I didn't know Yamcha was the Black Flame. I've always known because I am him." He stated calmly watching her face closely. "That has been my name ever since I set that priest on fire on the church cross in Vatician City. Talana gave it to me jokinly and it stuck."

He didn't rise from his bent position only hid his head in his knees crying. His shoulders shook with is silent cries of agony, the pain too much to bare.
A soft but firm arm fell over his shoulders holding him steady as Vegeta continued to cry. He looked but for the first time through tear streaked eyes to Bulma holding him. She was calm and almost removed except for the pained looked in side her eyes. She knew his pain but not how to stop it.
"Why Bulma? Why after so long does this hurt so much? I have killed and been killed and kept living my life. So why does this knowledge of my past and my mother hurt so much? Tell me that, why is my life so doomed? How can I live like this?" He pleaded to her his self-control lost to him in his time of need. Bulma looked at him steadily in silence waiting till he was ready to hear.
"Vegeta, life is pain. It's the price you pay for life. The price someone pays to give it and the pain it brings to live it. No matter how old the pain will always hurt the same amount as if you had just felt it. You just found out that your mother gave everything she ever had to bring you into this world. She gave her life for you." Vegeta gasped in air as the impact of her words hit.
"But she didn't give her life to have you fail her now. She gave it so you could be what you have always been meant to be." Bulma continued. "You have faced so many trials and they have all made you stronger, and by some weird twist of fate you are now fulfilling your destiny when you're ready too. Don't you see? Planet Vegitasii has been destroyed with only Goku left alive. This is your time to become a Super-Sayjian just like your mother always knew you would. This is the time you kill Frieza and make him pay for what he's done."
Vegeta watched Bulma's face change into a look of hardened anger as she spoke that last sentence. He knew then just how much he loved her. She knew him and saw through his walls. She seemed more apart of him then any other person. He didn't think he kissed her. Slowly lingering on her lips as she kissed him back. They pulled apart eyes down cast then meeting again in quite acknowledgment.
"Thank you." Vegeta whispered kissing her once again, quickly this time. A small and peaceful smile crossed her face as she looked at him.
"Thank you for letting me in." She paused smiling bigger. "So.you're French?" Vegeta looked at her dumbfounded for a second. Then they both burst out laughing. His deep and strange laughter booming with her own loud musical laughter. It took them almost 5 minutes to stop but by then they both felt better.
"You know I love you Vegeta don't you?" Bulma whispered directing her gaze to the stars again.
"I know." Vegeta replied looking to the sky also, his tone so shallow it was almost sad. "But you must realize a life spent loving me can only bring you some great pain that even I have not felt."
"I know that there are some things that I may never get from you. But I get more being with you than not so I think I'm going to stick around." Bulma said looping her arm around his waist, resting her head on his shoulder. He dropped his arm around her waist also holding her close in the cool night.
"This is going to be one hell of a relationship." He muttered pulling Bulma to her feet.
"Ha! You just said we're in a relationship!" Bulma chirped happily. Vegeta looked at her coldly.
"You're not going to let me live that one down are you?" He asked scowling at her smiling face.
"Nope!" She answered happily, almost bouncing as she spoke.
"That's what I thought." He growled transporting them both to Capsule Corp. They reappeared in the living room separating as they saw who was there.
"Hello Vegeta." Talana's icy voice said watching her brother through slited eyes. She had her arms crossed over her chest as if she had been waiting for him all this time. Tobias on the other hand barely even looked up from his tea and novel.
"Taylor. If you're going to continue to be mad at me I think it is wise that you tell me why now." Vegeta stated calmly to his glaring sister.
"Something's going to happen and I don't like it." She growled looking from Vegeta to Bulma and back again.
"Well if you're worried about me and Vegeta dating, too late." Bulma said hugging Vegeta around the waist and not releasing him. Vegeta didn't move, the only sign that he knew she was there was his glancing down at her to see what she was doing. She was baiting Talana to talk.
"Why you little bastard! It's one thing to fuck a whore but to start a relationship with one is just-" Talana was cut off by Bulma lunging for her screaming, only Vegeta holding her back from tearing Talana apart.
"You did not just call me a whore you fucking SLUT!" Bulma screeched trying to pull away from Vegeta's grasp.
"A slut am I? Why you blue-haired-brother-stealing-bitch! I'll rip your eyes out!" Talana cried. Before she could make a grab at Bulma, Tobias had yanked a struggling Talana down on his lap and was there holding her back much like Vegeta was Bulma. Problem was that Talana was much stronger than Bulma.
"Both of you stop this." Vegeta said in a board tone. Letting go of Bulma he watched as she spun to look at him in mid fall, landing on her butt but facing him.
"Fine, I got what I wanted anyway." Bulma said perfectly calm rising from the floor. Talana was still mad though.
"And what the fuck did you get bitch!" Talana yelled kicking at Tobias still trying to reach Bulma.
"I got the reason you're mad at Vegeta." She said flopping down in a nearby chair. Talana froze the anger falling away from her face as she thought. Tobias let go and picked up his tea again as Talana sat up.
"One you're upset that your brother can die now which is why you have been sending Tobias around to check on him. His being able to die must be very hard on an immortal sister like yourself." Bulma explained from her seat calmly.
"You told her!" Talana screeched in disbelief. Vegeta just shrugged.
"You don't like the idea also that I am stealing your brother away. Him setting himself in a relationship that so far seems permanent with someone must be very hard so you can't accept that change. All of that is understandable. I just want you to know that I have no intention of taking your brother from you or interfering in any of your lives. What happen happens and you'll just have to deal with that." Bulma stated now paying more attention to her nails than to the conversation. Talana thought for another second.
"You're right." Talana said at last. "I need to learn to accept change. And I may not like this part but I do like the end result."
"Talana what are you talking about?" Vegeta asked slowly watching his sister closely. Talana froze.
"My bother having a happy short life?" Talana said carefuly watching Vegeta also. Vegeta stepped closer to Talana making her fall backwards into the couch.
"You're lying." Vegeta breathed less than half a foot away from his sister's nervous face.
"Leave her be Vegeta she won't even tell me why she's acting like this. You don't stand a chance of getting it from her." Tobias said still not looking up from his novel. Vegeta face snapped to the side to glare at his old sire. He studied him carefully looking her any signs of a bluff. 'Hmmm he doesn't know. Whatever it is it must happen in the future and she wants it to happen. Then why is she so fucking pissed?' Vegeta snapped back to his sister who had by now recovered herself and looked right back at into his stare.
Vegeta stood up shrugging. "What does it matter? I'll know soon enough. Now if you don't mind I'm going to train." With that he spun on his heel and walked out of the room. For a minute everyone looked after him dumbstruck. All three of the remaining people looked at each other.
"Has anyone else noticed that he changes his mind far to much and then he never changes his mind on other things?" Bulma asked looking at Talana angrily.
"Yes you'll have to get use to that." Talana said forgetting for a second who she was talking to. "Well I guess we will be going now." Before Bulma could say a thing both Talana and Tobias disappeared from the room. Bulma sighed sitting back further in her seat.
Looking around she saw that only one light had been left on. The hollow glow making the rest of the house more like a black tomb than a home. Bulma looked at the light in thought. Her dark blue eyes narrowed against the glare. Her slim arms crossed over her chest. She sat totally still and silent lost in her own thoughts.
"I guess the quick change of heart runs in the family." She muttered distastefully. "Guess it really doesn't matter. What does matter is finding a way to tell him the truth."
(AN: Bulma has something to tell, but it's not what you think. She has more to say to Vegeta then any of you can guess. But please let me know what you think so far. And sorry Vegeta was a bit OOC but how would you feel if your entire life was turned upside down.?And review or we wont update. We didn't get many reviews in the last chapter so REVIEW!!!!!!!!! Or you will regret it.)
