Chapter five

Bulma sat up yawning stretched out her arms and looked towards Videl who still lay sleeping.

They had been there about seven weeks now, had good meals daily. They were treated how they were born to be treated, servants meeting their every need and desire.

She shook Videl to wake her, "Tez we'll be late for breakfast, get up."

Videl sat up and yawned, stretching like Bulma did.

Her Teddy Bear now slept by himself on the couch by the book shelf with the satin sheet laid over him with the pillows. It seemed as if she had grown out of it so quickly, but Bulma new the only reason she carried it was because she was so afraid and not used to living homeless, it was just too different for her.

Now they have a life back, and they had both had gotten very used to the King Vegeta and Queen Kaida. Her need to be comforted by the stuffed bear had left a few weeks ago.

Bulma just smiled at the bear and made a note to thank the thing some day. That bear got her sister through a lot. Every time she was feeling down, the Teddy Bear was one of the few things that gave her a reason to keep going, too take care of the precious thing.

Videl slid out of bed and yawned again, climbing up on the windowsill she opened the large curtains.

Sun shown through the room, she smiled a little looking out side to see the snow was covering the ground still, even more now than when they had got here.

There was at least two feet of snow by now, she was thankful to be inside.

Her train of thought was broken when a dress hit her head.

"Get dressed," Bulma said "Got to go bug Zareh or I won't have a good morning." she finished.

Bulma put on her usual, pants and a shirt. They were not clothes fit for a princess, but she was much more of a tomboy any way so it did not bother any one.

Her pants were flaming red, and her shirt was black with red flames going upwards, it showed off her navel as usual. When she wore it, it looked as if her legs were pure fire burning up to her small breast, with her top hugging tightly around them.

She kept her spiky black hair in a sloppy pony tail, with a Tiara around her forehead.

There was a blood red jewel in the middle of the Tiara. It was made of the pure gold, and jewel was a rare unheard of stone. More expensive than any crystal, and it would change colors with her mood, almost like a mood stone only the colors were more noticeable and bold. But it mostly stayed red which pretty much meant she was always emotionless and on guard.

Her hair had a gold chain wrapped into the sloppy ponytail dangling throughout it.

Videl's hair just an inch or two past her shoulders, she kept tied neatly into pigtails.

Each pigtail draping over her shoulders neatly.

Her gown was pure white, very simple and plane. With a silk wrap tied around her waist. It was a smaller version of the gown she first saw the Queen in.

She also had a Tiara, tightly around her forehead as well. It looked as if it came out of one pigtail wrapping tightly around her forehead into the other pigtail. It was just like Bulma's, only its rare crystal normally was a sky blue, which fit her mood perfectly. She was always giddy, smiling, and finding the good in odd things. It was rare you could upset the girl; she's laugh before she'd scream.

Of course Bulma was different; she screams before she laughs. They were two perfect opposites.

They left the room wandering down the stairs where Bulma kicked Zareh in the leg, smirked, and kept walking.

Videl giggled at it, and blew his leg a 'get better' kiss.

Zareh had to admit, they were kind of cute, he was getting used to them now.

Bulma rudely walked into the kitchen with out knocking, taking three nutrition bars as usual and left.

For breakfast they each had a nutrition bar, and as of this last week they always took one to Queen Kaida.

About a week ago one of the cooks had gotten a glass of orange juice for the Queen and poisoned it, attemps such as this rarly happened, but when they do they get pretty seriuos.

There always seemed to be some one in the Palace that wanted the Royal family destroyed, but it never worked they were quickly shuffled out and punished.

But this time they got away with it, the Queen had gotten very ill.

She was getting better though, the King had the cook that did this killed, of course by his own hands.

Videl and Bulma spent all day, every day with the Queen, only leaving time to time to allow her to rest. But any waking moment was spent with Bulma and Videl sitting on the bed. Videl usually read stories to Queen Kaida, now and again she came across a word that she could not pronounce and Bulma would help her out. The Queen loved the company, having daughters was the most wonderful thing. She could not wait to get completely better to interact with the girls again.

The day before she was poisoned, she spent hours outside in the snow with them.

They built two large snowmen, one was the King Vegeta, the other was Queen Kaida.

They started making two smaller snowmen to be the King and Queens daughters, but they all agreed they was to cold and made a promise to finish them the next day and went into the Palace to drink hot Coco, and take a long hot bath together in the inside hot springs.

When they reached the Queens room where they normally had breakfast, they saw the King leave emotionless, Videl had gotten very worried.

The girls entered the room and climbed on the bed; Bulma held out the nutrition bar and tilted her head staring at the Queen. She was awake but not moving, Rebeccia looked at the girls with tears in her eyes. Videl saw this and began try cry as well, afraid of what was wrong.

"Kat, Tezzy, sweeties, Kaida is not doing well at all."

Bulma growled, "What do you mean?! She's fine! It's been over a weak and she's been getter better daily, the doctor said so. That's not funny to joke about, so don't" Bulma demanded very harshly.

"Yes, she has been, but the flue and cold is going around it is winter you know. And with her being so ill her immune system is so very low, if anything at all. And our medications are not helping well with this viral infection. She has caught a very bad flue and cold, all of this is very hard on her already weak body. I don't think-" Rebeccia stopped speaking afraid of saying what was next.

"Don't think what?" Videl asked crying more now.

Bulma sat up holding the Queens strawberry nutrition bar in her hand along with her chocolate one. Her grip tightened around both of them crushing them, she was the only one that understood what Rebeccia was trying to tell them.

Their Queen, their new mother, their new best friend, was waiting in bed to die because of stupid flue and cold. She couldn't not stand the thought of it, how retarded was it that one must lose some one so dear over a glass of orange juice, and a cold? Posioned, it was posion. She had been posioned and was hardly making it back, now some silly infection was weakening her to the point of no return, how could she stop this? She can't, it was out of her hands.

Videl dropped her nutrition bar on the bed and hugged the Queen, she hoped and prayed silently that it wasn't true, just a bad dream.

"Bulma, Videl...."

Videl sat up in a rush, Bulma looked to the Queen in shock, 'Was that our...birth names she just used?'. "Don't be scared, I've known all along. The King doesn't, but do not tell him he would not be ready to except that." The Queens voice was a hush whisper.

"Kaida, you know who we are?" Bulma bit her lip, "You're not going to kill us now are you?" Videl's eyes were filled with more tears now, and she was shivering in terror.

Queen Kaida frowned at this; she lifted her hand up and lightly took Videl's.

"No, no sweetie. I've known since you have got here. I could tell because your hair was growing, it still is. And when it does grow color comes with it. And when you get your hair done weekly, they keep it trimmed well and shampoo it back black for you. And your tails get groomed back brown as well."

Bulma looked to the bed, she understood now.

When Kaida took them in, it was because she knew who they were. Kaida mentioned before she is still angry with the loss of the other Kingdom, it was not her idea to let any harm come to anyone.

King Vegeta had lost his best friend years ago, his only friend that gave him such good advice, then his two songs left to train on another planet over two years ago. He was lost with emotion he could not show, and brutally took it out on another Kingdom that he disliked.

Bulma also now knew why her hair was never coming out blue anymore, and she understood now when they went to get their hair done downstairs, why the hair professionals never said anything about their slowly growing hair. She was actually glad Queen Kaida knew and helped them; she told just enough people to help them keep their secret, the hair professional and Rebeccia. And Bulma was very glad this did not upset her either.

Videl smiled at Kaida, "Why did you not tell us you knew!? I would have loved to have some one to talk to about it. I'm sorry I did not tell you though, we were afraid that it would change things."

Rebeccia spoke for the weak and ill Queen, "It probably would have. The King has yet to find out and we don't plan on helping him do so. One day he will, when the time is right and will not be angered by it. But until then Kat and Tezzy are cute names for you two." Rebeccia smiled holding the Queens hand.

"When will you get better?" Videl asked so innocently that the Queen began to cry.

There was no worse feeling than knowing your time is so near and knowing others haven't accepted it yet, and have to leave behind those loved ones. "I do not see that I will be well again."

"You have got to get better, mommy I love you so much and I can not wait to play again in the snow. Our snowmen are still out side, they have not melted yet. But you promised we would go out side and make the King and Queen snowmen have two daughters, we started them both but did not finish them, we did not do it because we got to cold remember?"

The Queen closed her eyes, she was wrong, the worst feeling in the world knows that you are going to die, and leave behind your loved ones with a simple promise broken, one that means the world to a young innocent girl.

The Queens tears were more and more every minute, she lightly squeezed Videl's hand, this was the first time Videl called her mommy and told her she loved her.

"I love you to sweetie; I love you both so much you are my little girls. And I am so sorry for you loss with your real parents, I just hope I've done what ever was in my power to help make up for it."

Videl's words were hard to understand behind her tears, "You... you did mommy. You did... now Shh and rest you have to get better okay? You will get better though I know it to be true, so don't be afraid." Videl got off from the bed and walked out of the room.

Bulma never moved, she finally had some one to love her.

This was her new mother. She had only been here a little over seven weeks, but this woman had cared for her, never yelled or got angry. She was as gentle as an angel itself.

This was all wrong, she knew that Kaida was not doing well since she had been poisoned, but because of this winter, because of all the cold air and germs, with her immune system down catching a common cold, she was going die. The Queen was about to be taken from her, because of a mere cold.

This made no sense to Bulma, she fought back tears. "This can't be happening" her words were soft.

The Queen did not move, she kept here eyes closed tight. The last thing she wanted was to leave these two wonderful girls alone, with out a mother... again.

She felt that the first time was part her fault since it was her husband that killed her real family. And now it is her fault for being poisoned and dying, she did not know what she could do to make it better.

She felt the bed move and Videl climbed back on the bed. Videl had her bear with her and gave it to Kaida, "This is for you Mommy it helped me when ever I was scared. So now you can't be scared either okay because Nardo will help you. I named him after my father's adviser. He used to be our best friend and always helped us out."

Videl smiled now, Kaida opened her eyes and took the teddy bear loosely into her arms. "Thank you." Was all she managed to say.

"I really to love you mommy, I really do." Videl said smiling.

Bulma clenched her hands together; she knew that Kaida would not live and although she was not an emotion filled girl, she did regret not saying a proper goodbye to her father, mother, and Nardo as well. And she did not was this guilt to be put on to her when she actually has the chance to do it this time.

"And I love you, my mother." Bulma said giving Kaida and warm hug and leaving still fighting off tears.

Videl gave Kaida and kiss on her cheek and left the room as well. Kaida wanted more than anything to tell them she loved them again, but with all the talking before she felt so weak she could not even open her eyes. Instead she hung onto the bear tighter as she heard Rebeccia sit beside her.

Rebeccia was her best friend, she was not afraid to die she knew Rebeccia would look after the girls with her life. And she knew that Rebeccia would not leave her side for anything, she was not alone. Nothing could prepare her more for this moment.

She felt her breaths getting heavy, and Rebeccia's hand holding hers tigher. Soon she felt a warm embrace, not even able to open her eyes she knew who it was, her Vegeta. She took her last breath with no regrets, Vegeta held her safe in his arms, she only wished she had a little more time to say goodbye to her sons.
