Disclaimer: I don't not own DBZ
Last chpt was my first chpt I've wrote in like a year and I was kind of rusty, trying to feel the plot and trying to have everything fall into place after such a long time is difficult. Hopefully it was satisfying. You all saw my sad excuse for a lemon; I'm not good at them really so I went into small details and left the rest for your imagination, hehe. Well here's chpt 28, I think in like 6 more chpts this story might be done. I THINK you never know I might throw in another twist and make it longer, but I think 6 chpts would about finish it up. After this fic I plan on writing more. I have plenty of new ideas, and I want to finish THE VEGETABLE girls also. So enjoy the story and leave your reviews..i like those! .
Bulma laid her face in her hands and sobbed into them over the table. Vegeta left the dome. Vegeta sluggishly walked to the edge of the beach where the water met with the hot pale sand. He peered out into the large ocean. Captivated by the sequence in which the waves splashed along the shore Vegeta found himself in deep thought. Bulma's words from earlier played in his head like a film.
"No time for...love...how is that possible, there's always time for love. Don't you want to be loved? Even a King needs some one to love, and to be loved in return." Then he remembered the tears slid down her cheek. He wanted to wipe them away but that would be showing sign of emotion, and of course emotions were for the weak. But he couldn't help but think over the blue beauty's words.
Could what the onna say be true? Even a Mighty King, does he too need love? Vegeta pondered.
The chilled salty water reached his feet breaking his trance. A familiar scowl appeared on his face.
"Nonsense! She is trying to put these crazy thoughts in my head, a mighty King has better things to think about, and love is not one of them. Power, territory, and most of all to become the legendary Super Saiyan!. Yes that is my goal, I must become the first of my people to reach such a level, harvest it and master it!" Vegeta declared with a straining grin.
Just then Bulma came from inside the dome. She had no expression in her eyes or face, which was unusual for her. It made Vegeta edgy but he brushed it off. Bulma avoided eye contact with vegeta as she pressed a button on her capsule returning the dome within it and putting it in her pocket. "I wish to return to the palace...immediately!" Bulma hissed brushing her fingers through her hair.
"I am in no rush to leave this place" Vegeta said looking up at the sky.
Bulma growled, she had had enough of him. Bulma stormed over to Vegeta. The sand beneath her feet flew in the wind.
"I want to leave! So we are leaving! I could less about what YOU want. We have stood here long enough I wish—no I demand we leave at once!" Bulma grunted dangerously. Her words were harsh and spat out heatedly.
Vegeta looked away from the sky and down into the face of the only woman who ever had the aldasity to speak to him in such a manner. With one quick motion he snatched bulmas wrist tightly and brung his face a mere 2 inches from her face.
"Very well" Vegeta said.
No sooner did Bulma register what Vegeta said that she was being lifted from the ground. She hovered above the sand and was now in mid air. Her wrist was all that kept her from becoming extremely friendly with the ground.
She gasped in fear as she was now suspended over the water. She closed her eyes. Vegeta glimpsed down at the frightened woman.
"Stupid codfish.." Bulma mumbled trying to keep herself from flipping out.
Before she knew it they were at the palace. Vegeta floated above the ground.
"You can open your eyes now baka" Vegeta grumbled.
Bulma skeptically opened one eye then the other. Vegeta noticed this and with out warning let loose her wrist, and bulma came fumbling down to the floor. She cried out in pain and held on tightly to her ribs.
"You stupid mutha fucker I'm still injured" Bulma howled.
Slowly and calmly Vegeta coasted to the ground. When both feet were on the ground he walked by Bulma without a word. She watched angrily then stood up and followed. Rapidly she caught up with the Prince and seized his arm. Vegeta spun around with the upmost quickness ready to fire a deadly blast to the fool who dared touch him. He stopped in his action when he caught sight of who exactly it was who had taken his arm capture.
"What do you think you're doing?! Do you understand that I could have killed you. Don't you ever grab me like that EVER. Is that clear, I don't want to hurt you!" Vegeta said snatching his arm back and rotating his shoulders.
"Then why.." Bulma asked quietly, if not for his saiyan hearing he would have missed it.
"Why what? Explain yourself onna, I don't have time for games" Vegeta replied.
Bulma lowered her head.
"Then why did you hurt me?" Bulma cried. She sobbed lightly.
Vegeta sighed and rolled his eyes. His face grew slightly warm and with his hand he brought her face up so he could look into her blue eyes. Her eyes were extremely beautiful and Vegeta loved every chance he got to look into them. Her orbs flamed when angered, sparkled when happy, and dulled when sad. However they sustained the same beauty. Tears rolled down her face onto his hand.
"I did not wish to hurt you, never were those my intentions. I thought you could understand my view of this. I believed you were smart enough; don't make me regret thinking that. It's not that I don't want to ...love, I just can't. Being King means being ruthless, a leader! I must do what's best for my people and my kingdom. Things so foolish as Love and emotions will only bring me down. I have looked forward to being King since I kicked in my mother's womb. It's my destiny to rule of Vege-table, my pride won't have it any other way. So stop your crying, it's gotten old real quick and try to understand." Vegeta spoke with kindness, his voice was husky and strong but with no hint of aggravation or anger.
It was like meeting and speaking to a whole other person. Bulma's tears seized and she wiped them away. Bulma smirked then gave her a small peck on the lips. Afterwards he vanished into his father's room. Bulma stood in the hall where he left here staring at the K. Vegeta's door.
"I understand my love, but it won't save me from my fate" Bulma uttered to no one but the walls.
Walls always seemed to be a trusting friend. One who would stand around for hours and listen, not say a word or criticize, just listen. She could trust the walls not to speak of her deepest confessions.
"Three more days..." she sobbed into her pillow which she clenched tightly to her chest.
"Chi chi! Oh chi chi. Where could she have gone?" Goku questioned swimming around frantically searching for Chi chi.
Far far away from where Goku searched Chi chi was sitting upon a rock. The sea seemed lonely and quiet, just as Chi chi liked it. It gave her time to think. Think about things like: King Briefs, the kingdom, and Bulma. She had searched for a month now, everyone had given up hope. Nevertheless she continued onward with the search, she knew Bulma, she was a survivor and she had a feeling she was still alive.
"Everyone's given up hope Bulma, but I just know that you're out there, but why? Why did you go and leave me?" Chi chi expressed with sadness in her voice.
Just then a familiar crab was strolling by. He was stunned to see that upon a rock a mermaid sat alone. He remembered that in that same spot nearly a month ago another mermaid were doing the same thing. Curiosity got the best of the friendly crab and he hurried over.
Must be a new hangout joint for these mer-teens he thought to himself.
"Well hello there missy. What's seems to be bothering you?" The crab asked tipping his small top hat he wore.
Chi chi surprised looked side to side.
"Down here fishcakes. Is there anything troubling you that a crab may be able to help you with?" He exclaimed moving closer.
"Who are you?" Chi chi asked.
"Just a friend. The name is Sebastian. I'm only offering you a friendly hand." The crab cheered with a big smile.
"Thank you, but I was only thinking really." Chi chi exclaimed and brushed over her fin with her fingers.
"That's fine dear. Anytime you take care you hear?" Sebastian pronounced while waddling away, but before he left he turned around and looked the young mermaid up and down shaking his head. "You know..just about a month ago, there was another mermaid sitting in that same spot, seemed she had a lot on her mind also. I hope things work out for you" he added and again began to walk away.
It took only a few moments for what the crab said to register with Chi chi and she sprung up. She looked after the crab and jetted towards him. Quickly she dashed in front of the small creature stopping him from going any further.
"What did you just say? What other mermaid? When was this? What was her name? How did she look! I WANT DETAILS RIGHT THIS INSTANT!!" Chi chi shouted.
The crab, frightened retreated into his shell. Chi chi sighed and knocked on the small shell.
"I'm sorry, but the reason I'm upset is because a close friend of mine is missing. I only want to find her and bring her home. Now can you please, please tell me all you know" Chi chi pleased, her eyes wide with sadness and in the sadness a dim light of hope shined through.
The crab peeked his head out and fixed his hat.
"Well okay then, allow me to collect my memory though. Hmmmmm. Yes I do certainly recall a young female mermaid, about your age exactly. Long green hair.." The crab began he stopped for a moment to collect more memories.
"Green hair you say?..." Chi chi said disappointed.
"Green..perhaps Blue. Ah that's right blue, the strangest looking mermaid I had ever seen. With identical blue eyes, she was a feisty one and still elegant and beautiful. She was upset and I lent her a helping hand"
"I see I see, and what was her name?" Chi chi asked grabbing the crab in her hands looking him straight in the eye.
"Bubba, or Bulba. I can't really remember it quiet that well.." Sabastian stated scratching his chin.
"BULMA!!!" Chi chi shrieked dropping the crab on the ground.
"Yeah that's it." Sabastian said rubbing hi head that ached from the fall.
Chi chi gasped and picked the crab back in her grasp.
"Oh my gosh! I'm so sorry. You say she was upset, then what? Did she say why or where she was going?" Chi chi questioned in excitement.
"Well she told me she was upset over a man. I offered to take her to the Sea witch BaBa, I thought maybe she could help her better than I could." The crab said taking off his hat and brushing the sand from it and outing it back on his head. "She was happy about the idea, so that's where I expect she had gone"
"She went WHERE!?!?! To the Sea Witch? I don't like the sound of this! Which way is this Sea witch? I have to save Bulma!" Bulma preached her hands balled up tightly into small fists.
"There, there little missy, I can take you to the sea witch." SAbastian offered clearing his throat. "You see I feel as if im responsible for your friends disappearance. Come we haven't much time." He added and the two sea creatures were off in a flash.
Just moments later Sabastian stopped infront of a old Anchor. Chi chi watched the crab look back and forth.
"What is it Sabastian?" Chi chi asked curiously.
"I can't go beyong this point. It's up to you now, the place you seek out Baba's cave is just beyong this here anchor. You swim for atleast 10 minutes until you come to a cave, there you will find the sea witch." Sabastian said in almost a whisper.
Chi chi examined the area. She wasn't at all familiar with this side of ocean, it was gloomy and lonely. Chi chi gazed down at the slightly frightened crab.
"Thank you for all your help Sabastian." She said and swam away in a hurry.
The crab looked after her and waved.
"Good luck!" he called but it was too late she was long gone.
"I'm dreadfully hungry, really I am. When are we going to eat? It's been days! What I wouldn't do for a juicy. Plumped –"a low voiced cried from inside a abandoned ship. The unseen creatures stomached growled loudly causing the shadowy figures cheeks to blush.
"SHUT UP! Would you stop your bitching, it's not helping at all. You think you're the only one hungry? Well do you? No. I'm just as hungry, I am aware of the last time we had a decent meal. It's just so hard to come across something good to eat now a days" A second voice shouted. She sat near a shattered mirror tracing her fingers over the broken glass.
Finally the first voice came into the light revealing it to be Faye, the mermaid who Bulma had encountered earlier.
"But my tummy hurts, if I don't get something in it soon...why I'll go crazy, and do something drastic." She whined pathetically.
The second shadow also stepped into the light; Shikaro glooming swam over to a window and slammed her fist on the wooden banister. Faye's stomached roared begging for food, pounding and crying. Faye hugged it with her arms. She looked over to Shikaro who seemed to be in deep thought. Faye licked her lips; she could smell her companion from where she stood. Her scent filled her nostrils sending her senses on a joy ride. Her mouth watered, gradually she made her way over to her friend's side. Her hands shook as she reached for Shikaro's hair. Just before she could get a grip Shikaro twirled around furiously.
"Don't you even THINK it! Get the fuck away from you. You're pathetic and weak. The next time a dim-witted idea like that comes across your mind, do us all a favor and kill yourself." She barked slapping Fayes hand away.
"I'm sorry...." She apologized caressing her hand. She looked down at her feet.
"Don't be sorry you're an idiot it's expected." Shikaro said with a helpless sigh.
Faye was about to say something when the two mermaids heard a voice.
"Did you hear that Shikaro?" Faye asked excitedly. Her eyes widened when she heard it again.
"Of course I heard it, it's a mermaid...she's close...I can smell her.." Shikaro said going back into the shadows with a devilish smirk and dark eyes.
Faye swam around in circles giggling and doing flips.
"Were going to aren't we? Were going to eat! Eat! Eat! Yumm!!" Faye sang happily she circled Shikaro gleefully.
"I said QUIET! We won't eat a thing if you don't be quiet!" Shikaro explained swimming over to the window again.
"How does she look? Shikaro huh huh?" Faye asked pulling out 2 plates along with forks.
"She looks like every mermaid. Now here's the plan! ..I do all the talking! We don't want last times events with that blue mermaid to happen with this one." Shikaro said near the door. She took one last look at Faye. "Do us a favor and stay inside." She said and left. The door closed behind her.
Faye grunted and swam to the window so she could watch Shikaro fetch what she hoped would be dinner.
Chi chi looked around misplaced. She was officially lost.
"Great! I've failed you Bulma...I was so close!" She hissed hitting a spare rock with her fin.
"Hey watch it little mermaid, you could poke a old woman's eye out with those" a king voice spoke.
"Oh! I'm so terribly sorry, I didn't see you there." Chi chi said blushing.
"No harm done. You look upset; I couldn't help but notice that you seemed lost. Pardon me asking, but are you alone?" The voice questioned.
Chi chi nodded. A small chuckled emerged from the throat of the woman.
"My name's Shikaro, yours?" The woman whom was now identified as the treacherous mermaid Shikaro said.
"Nice to meet you, I'm Chi chi" Chi chi said offering her hand for a handshake.
Shikaro smiled falsely and grasped it. Chi chi felt her cold clammy hands and shivered. When she broke the handshake shikaro brought her hands to her mouth. Chi chi looked on puzzled. Shikaro licked the tips of her fingers. She closed her eyes and licked her lips. Chi chi taken a back stepped back.
"Well it was nice meeting you, but I must be on my way I have a long way to go" Chi chi said nervously and began to swim away.
Shikaro opened her eyes and looked side to side. She caught sight of Chi chi just as she began leaving. Hurriedly she sped up to her and snatched her arm sturdily. Chi chi was stopped in her tracks and winced in pain.
"NO! your not going anywhere!!!" Shikaro bawled, her eyes were dangerous.
Chi chi looked at Shikaro in fear. Her eyes widened. Suddenly Shikaro closed her eyes and let out a deep breathe.
"I mean, you're obviously lost. I can help you. Just come in and I'll get you a nice cup of tea, and we can discuss finding your way to wherever you wish to go. Hmm, now doesn't that sound good?" Shikaro said trying to sooth the frightened mermaid teenager.
Chi chi looked at her arm and tried to free the elder mermaids grip. Shikaro kept a strong grip smiling into Chi chi's face.
"That's rather okay. I'm fine; I can find it on my own. Now can you please release me so that I may go on my way" Chi chi exclaimed moving her arm back and forth.
"But I insist! Stay a while, perhaps for ....dinner" Shikaro said baring her sharp teeth.
Chi chi gasped petrified. She hadn't notice the fangs until now. Chi chi fought trying to free her self from the grasp, but it was useless. Shikaro brought Chi chi closer and licked her forehand.
"You're a tasty one" she said wickedly.
Chi chi felt her stomach turn in disgust. She continued to fight the elder mermaid, and managed to kick her in her fin. Shikaro yelped in pain and let loose of Chi chi. Chi chi made a dash for it, but Shikaro was right on her fin.
"FAYE!! Faye where are you? you bumbling idiot! Come out here and help me catch her!" Shikaro barked chasing after the young girl.
Faye was busy inside boiling water and cutting seaweed when she heard her comrade shouting for her. Without hesitation she bolted out the ship and outside.
"What?!? What is it?" Faye asked out of breathe.
Just then Chi chi flashed by her. Faye watched the mermaid fly by her then looked at Shikaro run up behind her.
"did we order fast food?" Faye asked naively.
"Don't just stand there moron. Catch herrrrr!!!" She screeched.
"Right away!" Faye said aluting then swimming with all her might to catch up with Chi chi.
Within minutes Chi chi was captured by Faye and brought back to Shikaro.
"One mermaid hold the onions!" Faye joked laughing venomously.
Shikaro limped over to Chi chi. She smirked in her face and grabbed a handful of her hair. Chi chi grimaced in pain.
"That was not at all smart little one. What do you have to say in defense?" Shikaro said at first with a grin, but then her grin changed into a frown. Her eyes darkened. A vein popped was visible at the side of her temple.
"Bite me bitch!" Chi chi snarled spitting her in the face.
A deep growl emerged from deep within her throat. She closed her eyes and wiped away the thick saliva from her face. She sucked her teeth and arched a brow.
"I was planning on doing more than just Bite you little bitch! I was never one who liked her meat beat, but in your case I'll make an exception." Shikaro said raising her hand to strike Chi chi.
Chi chi held her eyes shut tightly and held her breathe. Thoughts of Bulma flooded her mind, and of her family back home and of goku. She never thought it would end like this.
"Wait right there! Put down your hand!" A familiar voice called from behind Shikaro.
dun dun dun dun!! Who could that be? Will this mysterious stranger help Chi chi? Or is it another accomplice of the evil mermaids? You're just going have to wait for the next chpt to find out! Muahaha!! Now who's the evil mermaid? Well im not a mermaid persay...heck im not a mermaid period! But I could be! If vegeta wanted me too!!! Hehehehehehehehehehehehehehe!!!!

"Chi chi! Oh chi chi. Where could she have gone?" Goku questioned swimming around frantically searching for Chi chi.

Just moments later Sabastian stopped infront of a old Anchor. Chi chi watched the crab look back and forth.
"What is it Sabastian?" Chi chi asked curiously.
"I can't go beyong this point. It's up to you now, the place you seek out Baba's cave is just beyong this here anchor. You swim for atleast 10 minutes until you come to a cave, there you will find the sea witch." Sabastian said in almost a whisper.

"I'm dreadfully hungry, really I am. When are we going to eat? It's been days! What I wouldn't do for a juicy. Plumped –"a low voiced cried from inside a abandoned ship. The unseen creatures stomached growled loudly causing the shadowy figures cheeks to blush.
"SHUT UP! Would you stop your bitching, it's not helping at all. You think you're the only one hungry? Well do you? No. I'm just as hungry, I am aware of the last time we had a decent meal. It's just so hard to come across something good to eat now a days" A second voice shouted. She sat near a shattered mirror tracing her fingers over the broken glass.
Finally the first voice came into the light revealing it to be Faye, the mermaid who Bulma had encountered earlier.
"But my tummy hurts, if I don't get something in it soon...why I'll go crazy, and do something drastic." She whined pathetically.
The second shadow also stepped into the light; Shikaro glooming swam over to a window and slammed her fist on the wooden banister. Faye's stomached roared begging for food, pounding and crying. Faye hugged it with her arms. She looked over to Shikaro who seemed to be in deep thought. Faye licked her lips; she could smell her companion from where she stood. Her scent filled her nostrils sending her senses on a joy ride. Her mouth watered, gradually she made her way over to her friend's side. Her hands shook as she reached for Shikaro's hair. Just before she could get a grip Shikaro twirled around furiously.
"Don't you even THINK it! Get the fuck away from you. You're pathetic and weak. The next time a dim-witted idea like that comes across your mind, do us all a favor and kill yourself." She barked slapping Fayes hand away.
"I'm sorry...." She apologized caressing her hand. She looked down at her feet.
"Don't be sorry you're an idiot it's expected." Shikaro said with a helpless sigh.
Faye was about to say something when the two mermaids heard a voice.
"Did you hear that Shikaro?" Faye asked excitedly. Her eyes widened when she heard it again.
"Of course I heard it, it's a mermaid...she's close...I can smell her.." Shikaro said going back into the shadows with a devilish smirk and dark eyes.
Faye swam around in circles giggling and doing flips.
"Were going to aren't we? Were going to eat! Eat! Eat! Yumm!!" Faye sang happily she circled Shikaro gleefully.
"I said QUIET! We won't eat a thing if you don't be quiet!" Shikaro explained swimming over to the window again.
"How does she look? Shikaro huh huh?" Faye asked pulling out 2 plates along with forks.
"She looks like every mermaid. Now here's the plan! ..I do all the talking! We don't want last times events with that blue mermaid to happen with this one." Shikaro said near the door. She took one last look at Faye. "Do us a favor and stay inside." She said and left. The door closed behind her.
Faye grunted and swam to the window so she could watch Shikaro fetch what she hoped would be dinner.
Chi chi looked around misplaced. She was officially lost.
"Great! I've failed you Bulma...I was so close!" She hissed hitting a spare rock with her fin.
"Hey watch it little mermaid, you could poke a old woman's eye out with those" a king voice spoke.
"Oh! I'm so terribly sorry, I didn't see you there." Chi chi said blushing.
"No harm done. You look upset; I couldn't help but notice that you seemed lost. Pardon me asking, but are you alone?" The voice questioned.
Chi chi nodded. A small chuckled emerged from the throat of the woman.
"My name's Shikaro, yours?" The woman whom was now identified as the treacherous mermaid Shikaro said.
"Nice to meet you, I'm Chi chi" Chi chi said offering her hand for a handshake.
Shikaro smiled falsely and grasped it. Chi chi felt her cold clammy hands and shivered. When she broke the handshake shikaro brought her hands to her mouth. Chi chi looked on puzzled. Shikaro licked the tips of her fingers. She closed her eyes and licked her lips. Chi chi taken a back stepped back.
"Well it was nice meeting you, but I must be on my way I have a long way to go" Chi chi said nervously and began to swim away.
Shikaro opened her eyes and looked side to side. She caught sight of Chi chi just as she began leaving. Hurriedly she sped up to her and snatched her arm sturdily. Chi chi was stopped in her tracks and winced in pain.
"NO! your not going anywhere!!!" Shikaro bawled, her eyes were dangerous.
Chi chi looked at Shikaro in fear. Her eyes widened. Suddenly Shikaro closed her eyes and let out a deep breathe.
"I mean, you're obviously lost. I can help you. Just come in and I'll get you a nice cup of tea, and we can discuss finding your way to wherever you wish to go. Hmm, now doesn't that sound good?" Shikaro said trying to sooth the frightened mermaid teenager.
Chi chi looked at her arm and tried to free the elder mermaids grip. Shikaro kept a strong grip smiling into Chi chi's face.
"That's rather okay. I'm fine; I can find it on my own. Now can you please release me so that I may go on my way" Chi chi exclaimed moving her arm back and forth.
"But I insist! Stay a while, perhaps for ....dinner" Shikaro said baring her sharp teeth.
Chi chi gasped petrified. She hadn't notice the fangs until now. Chi chi fought trying to free her self from the grasp, but it was useless. Shikaro brought Chi chi closer and licked her forehand.
"You're a tasty one" she said wickedly.
Chi chi felt her stomach turn in disgust. She continued to fight the elder mermaid, and managed to kick her in her fin. Shikaro yelped in pain and let loose of Chi chi. Chi chi made a dash for it, but Shikaro was right on her fin.
"FAYE!! Faye where are you? you bumbling idiot! Come out here and help me catch her!" Shikaro barked chasing after the young girl.
Faye was busy inside boiling water and cutting seaweed when she heard her comrade shouting for her. Without hesitation she bolted out the ship and outside.
"What?!? What is it?" Faye asked out of breathe.
Just then Chi chi flashed by her. Faye watched the mermaid fly by her then looked at Shikaro run up behind her.
"did we order fast food?" Faye asked naively.
"Don't just stand there moron. Catch herrrrr!!!" She screeched.
"Right away!" Faye said aluting then swimming with all her might to catch up with Chi chi.
Within minutes Chi chi was captured by Faye and brought back to Shikaro.
"One mermaid hold the onions!" Faye joked laughing venomously.
Shikaro limped over to Chi chi. She smirked in her face and grabbed a handful of her hair. Chi chi grimaced in pain.
"That was not at all smart little one. What do you have to say in defense?" Shikaro said at first with a grin, but then her grin changed into a frown. Her eyes darkened. A vein popped was visible at the side of her temple.
"Bite me bitch!" Chi chi snarled spitting her in the face.
A deep growl emerged from deep within her throat. She closed her eyes and wiped away the thick saliva from her face. She sucked her teeth and arched a brow.
"I was planning on doing more than just Bite you little bitch! I was never one who liked her meat beat, but in your case I'll make an exception." Shikaro said raising her hand to strike Chi chi.
Chi chi held her eyes shut tightly and held her breathe. Thoughts of Bulma flooded her mind, and of her family back home and of goku. She never thought it would end like this.
"Wait right there! Put down your hand!" A familiar voice called from behind Shikaro.
