Chapter 8

The Cave

Vegeta led Bulma into the cave.

"I don't see how this will help me. It's just a cave full of gems," Bulma said.

"On my home planet, not everyone fought. There were also scientists. They crushed gems in water to create fuel. I figured this cave would have enough gems to create a huge supply of fuel. Which, of course, would seriously help your latest project," Vegeta replied.

"oh, ok. Makes sense now. But water? Why water?" Bulma said.

"Makes a powerful fuel, not to mention it's everywhere," Vegeta replied.

"Good point. Salt water or fresh?" Bulma asked.

"Either one works. Salt water works best, though," Vegeta said.

"Therefore making this cave the perfect place to work. That's great! Thanks for bringing me here, Vegeta," Bulma said.

"Anytime. Just tell me when you want to come back here, ok?" Vegeta said.

"Ok. Tomorrow sound good?" Bulma said.

"Sure," Vegeta replied.
