CHAPTER 2

AT THE LOOK-OUT

Chichi paced back and forth waiting for Bulma's arrival. Gohan quietly watched his mother's movements. "Mom could you keep still your making me dizzy."

"I'm sorry Gohan, I'm just so excited!"

"Yeah! I can't wait to see daddy again, we will have lots of fun!"

"Not all fun young man, remember you still have some school work to catch up on."

"Aw Mom!"

Yamchua stood watching Mother and son. He had always admired Goku, not just for his strength but also for his maturity in having and keeping a family. He always thought Goku would be the last to find a wife, It wasn't that girls didn't like him, it was because he had a sort of child like innocence which sometimes made him look, well, stupid. He never understood the term marriage, in fact Bulma was the one who tricked Goku into showing up on his wedding day. Drawing from his musings Yamchua faced Krillin.
"Where is your heart throb Krillin?"

"Oh, she's home I don't think she is comfortable around our group yet."

"Oh."

" Sooooo, how are you and Bulma? "

"Krillin I'm a changed man, after what I saw Goku did to save us it made me realize that in our line of 'work' life is very short, i can't even count the times I've died. I think it's time i grew up Krillin. I'm serious about my future with Bulma. When the time is right I'm going to pop the question, I just hope she say yes."

"Hey look, is that Vegeta! Wow, is he coming to greet Dad when he returns?"

"Yes it is. But I'm not sure he is here just for Goku." Piccolo replied to the eager Gohan.

Vegeta touched down on the grounds of the look-out area, walked pass all without uttering a greeting and stood at the edge of the look-out. His arms folded and back regally turned towards all questioning eyes. He owed them nothing.

The sound of propellers could be heard in the distance. Everyone turned towards the sound expecting it to be the long awaited Bulma Brief.
Dende emerged when Bulma stepped from her helicopter.

"Is everyone ready?" Dende asked calmly
The group nodded.
" Bring the dragon balls here."
After doing so Dende uttered the password and once again the great dragon appeared, towering over the occupants of the look-out.

"You have awakened me from my slumber," his voice thundered "what are your three wishes?"

"Who will be making the wishes?" Dende asked

"I will!" Bulma answered eagerly "My first wish: the most obvious: ..."

KING Ki's PLANET

Goku laid sprawled out in the sunshine dozing away.
"Ahhh, peace and quiet. I miss home though. I wonder what Gohan and Chi are doing right now."

King Ki quietly walked towards Goku.
"Hey King Ki, can I see what my family are doing?"

"That won't be necessary Goku, because you'll be with them soon."

" What, soon, really, wow, the dragon balls have been gathered already. It seem like such a short period of time. Hey King Ki how much time has passed? "
Goku faded away while asking his question.

LOOK-OUT

"I wish Goku is alive and with us now!"

In faded Goku laying on his back staring up quizzically at Bulma.
"Hey King Ki did anyone ever told you that you look like Bulma?"

Chichi squealed and ran towards her husband.
"Oh, Goku! Is it really you, I missed you!"

"Hey King Ki, you kinda look like chichi too. Weird."

"Goku! Your alive, your alive pal! Welcome home!" Krillin cried.

"Alive, really oh wow that means it really is BULMA !"

"Yes Goku it's me."

"And Chi!" He grabbed his teary eyed wife and spun her in the air.

"Dad! Ha ha ha ha your back!"

"Gohan!" Goku then grabbed his son and spun him in the air. "It's good to see you sport! Are you O.K.? Did you take care of mom while I was away?"

"Yes i did dad..."

Bulma POV:
Bulma stood happily watching her best friend reunite with his family. It was a happy sight, Chichi was crying as if she had just lost her husband. The weird thing was, that was the same way she cried when she got news about Goku's death. It's funny really how being happy and sad can be so closely linked. When they stopped spinning Goku looked around and saw all his friends. He had that childish twinkle in his eye whenever he was reunited with his friends.

Vegeta POV:
Listen to those idiots. They are so sickenly happy. His harpy is bauling again, every little thing she cries. She knows of the dragon balls when Kakarot died yet she insists on tortuing my hearing with her incesant noise. Now she crying when he is revived, feh, stupid humans and their emotions. I will never undestand them. At least the woman doesn't show such obvoius signs of weakness. When she is sad she shows it by being angry at something or someone, if annoyed she does the same thing. She sheilds her emotions well.

" Hey guys, how's it going ? Hey look Vegeta is here too, hey Vegeta!"

Bulma POV:
As was expected Vegeta didn't acknowledge him and snorted in annoyance. No matter how hard Goku tried to be friends with the bastered it always seemed to fall on deaf ears. But that didn't deter Goku. He kept trying, and every time he tried he acted as if this was his first try. He once told me that he believed Vegeta was, deep down, a good person, but because he was taught how to hide his emotions anyone who didn't know him wouldn't realize how good he was. And so with this in mind Goku always extended a greeting to the sayajin prince in a effort to become his friend.

"Your first wish has been granted. What is your second wish?" The Great dragon boomed interrupting Bulma's musing.

"Hold on to your hats ladies and gentlemen!" Screamed Bulma

"Huh, hats I don't have on any hat." Goku stated

Every one sweat dropped

"I wish that Planet Vegeta was revived with all its inhabitants!"

"WHAT!"
