Dancing In The Dark
……
Alone
From childhoods hour I have not been As other were - I have not seen As others saw - I could not bring My passions from a common spring.
From that same source I have not taken My sorrow - I could not awaken My heart to joy at that same tone And all I lov'd - I lov'd alone -
Then, in my childhood, in the dawn Of a most stormy life was drawn From ev'ry depth of good and ill The mystery which binds me still.
From the torrent, or the fountain,
From the red cliff of the mountain.
From the sun that round me roll'd In its autumn tint of gold.
From the lightning of the sky As it pass'd me flying by.
From the thunder, and the storm And the cloud that took the form (When the rest of heaven was blue)
Of a demon in my view.
-Edgar Allen Poe

"Damn" Bulma cursed, jumping into a puddle of water.
It was an hour before dawn and he decided to disappear. Vegeta could of perished in the sunlight right before her eyes, but he chose to kiss her and fade away.
"What the hell!" Bulma yelled and the owls hooted in response.
Bulma checked her throat for the millionth time. There were no pierce marks and no blood. Bulma froze when she felt his smooth lips touch her pale throat. She could have ended his life right then and there if she wanted to, but she froze when she felt his hot breath touch her.
The dark clouds started to fade and colors of purple, yellow started to show. Bulma decided it was time to go.
…….
18 was sitting on the couch before her knifes One was perfectly clean and the other knifes blade was covered in dried blood. Her head was bowed until she heard the door open and she raised her head slowly.
" You look like hell, B." 18 said by way of greeting.
Bulma plopped down in a chair directly in front of her." Feel like it too"
"Tell me what happened."
"What the hell? I'm I in some confessional or something?"
"No. The reason I asked is because you looked like you been playing in the rain"
Bulma frowned." It was crazy, 18. Vegeta kicked my ass!"
18 lifted a blonde eye brow slowly," I can see that."
"Don't get me wrong, 18. I gave him a few blows to, but he got me on the ground first though. It nothing a little training can do, huh." Bulma decided not to tell her what Vegeta did, but she wasn't sure why. Was she feeling protective of a vampire? Bulma shook her head at the thought." now you tell me what happened to your knife."
18 lifted her knife and stared at the hardened blood on her blade and stayed silent for a moment then after a few more second she decided to speak." I cut the leeches neck, but I didn't kill him"
" And why not?" Bulma wanted to know why the no question asked, no hesitation hunter decided not to kill Krillen.
"He was weak, too weak. I at least want a fair fight with Krillen"
Bulma gasped," You actually let a name of vampire come out of your mouth. Could you please repeat that name because I obviously didn't hear that right?" Bulma laughed.
"Bulma be serious." 18 warned her.
" Yeah. Ok." Bulma said looking around the room. " Where is Chi?"
I don't know-" 18 began, but was interrupted when she heard the front door open again. A frown nagged on her forehead. She stood and set down her knife roughly:" So you finally decided to come home. Chi what took you so long?"
"I-" ChiChi made an attempt to explain but got caught off.
Both of 18's eyebrows shot up. "You screwed someone didn't you? You know we were supposed to be working! Now tell me who he is!"
ChiChi winced. "Well I was at the bar where I was suppose to be-"
"Well that narrows it down to one-hundred" 18 muttered.
During this whole argument Bulma was silent. She kind of had a feeling she knew who it was.
" The bar was crawling with sick men, and I met this guy with the most friendliest appearance. The darkest eyes too. I just couldn't turn away. He made me feel safe. I'm so sorry.
"Sorry for what, Chi?" Bulma asked. She wanted to know if her assumption was right.
"Bulma she is sorry because it was a vampire."
Bulma lifted her eyebrows to make it look like she was surprised." What vampire?"
ChiChi looked to the ground almost to the verge of tears, "Goku." she coughed out a hoarse cry.
Believe it or not 18 stayed fairly calm. " I will finish your job. I thought you were better then that."
ChiChi glared at her. " I can handle myself, 18" she said swiping the tears that fell from her eyes off her face and headed to her room and slammed it.
18 cursed under her breath and slowly sank down in the couch to clean her knife. When she started to mutter under her breath Bulma took that as a cue to talk to ChiChi.
She knocked twice on her door and let herself in. "Chi?"
She walked in into her room and saw her sitting on the edge of her bed and kicking off her black boots.
"It will be ok, you know?" Bulma said casually.
"How do you know that, Bulma?" ChiChi asked as she pulled off her socks.
"Because I know you know what your doing and you wouldn't of did what you did last night if you didn't"
ChiChi gave her a small smile. "Thanks"
"ChiChi I did something bad too," when ChiChi looked amused she continued. " Vegeta kissed my neck and didn't pierce my throat. I had a perfect chance to kill him, but I didn't. I guess I was to shocked to."
"Oh, I understand you didn't expect him to do that" ChiChi sniffed.
"Would it be wrong to ask how it went last night?
ChiChi let out a rough laugh." No, Bulma. He was so…"
…….
The vampires were underground. The best places to be in if you were a vampire. It was a place where no light peeked though. There was a couple of swinging lanterns above them that provided a little bit of light. It was like an underground hangout for a vampire.
"I wonder where Yamcha is." Krillen asked.
"He is dead," said a voice coming from the shadows.
"How do you know Vegeta?" Krillen asked, turning around on his wooden chair.
"If you weren't so weak Krillen you would sense that his aura is completely gone" he said, leaning against the concrete wall.
"Anyways… Goku you have been quiet for a while. This is not you." Krillen accused Goku.
Goku slouched down in the down farther in his chair and shrugged.
"You have the scent of a human on you" Vegeta said, leaning off the wall and now standing up straight.
"You smell like one too, Vegeta" Goku responded, standing up in his chair.
"And your point Kakkarot…?" Vegeta hissed.
"Is that you should get off my back Vegeta! You're just as bad!" Goku hissed back.
"Speak for yourself you have a woman's scent all over you."
"Go fuck yourself, Vegeta!" Goku growled at him
"You probably fucked enough people for the both of us." Vegeta smirked.
Vegeta walked toward Goku until he was close enough. It felt to awkward to be arguing so far away, so why not get all close and personal.
Goku turned not trusting him at his back.
Vegeta's power snapped out and hit Goku like a whip. Goku's lashed his own power out and Vegeta felt burning in his veins. His vision mulled over for a moment, a moment in which Goku drew his knife.
"You always need you blade, don't you, Kakkarot because without it you would lose, wouldn't you?"
Vegeta circled behind him and Goku turned to keep him in site. Vegeta lashed his power around Goku's wrist. His muscles flexed, but he held onto the knife.
Goku's power flared out, and Vegeta heard wood cracking behind him. One of the tables split down the middle and Krillen jumped out of the way just in time.
"Impressive," Vegeta said scornfully and lashed out with his own power the glass walls crumbled into spider web patterns with no single inch left whole. Hairline cracks ran though every crervice, but not one piece fell out. Goku backed up a step away from Vegeta.
"Coward" Vegeta said, "Do you back away from me?"
Vegeta began took a step forward, ever aware of the knife in Goku's hand.
Goku disappeared for a moment and suddenly the knife is at Vegeta's throat.
Vegeta froze felling the fictive burning where the blade touched his skin with that blade; it would be fatal if the blade slit his throat. He moved the knife away for a moment then Vegeta hit his wrist, breaking it. The knife fell to the ground and Vegata shoved him into the fractured mirror.
Vegeta laughed. What weakling he was. He was inferior to him in all ways.
Vegeta picked up the knife before Goku could recoverand he stumbled slightly and threw all of his power at him. Vegeta flew against the table where Krillen sat and Krillen instantly held him down with all of his strength.
"You guys are friends and your fighting over some silly shit," Krillen growled. "Vegeta, you need to mind your own damn business!" said the usual calm one.
Vegeta growled and pushed Krillen roughly off his body.
…….
