R: Woof! Woof! goes into cage
T: Good boy. Peeps, read and review! Laters, I need some food.
It appeared to Bulma that Venux had come from quiet a long ways to get to them. They seemed to have been doing nothing but be flying for the past half hour at high speed. "Girl, how much further? I grow tired of flying around and not getting any closer to wherever it is that we are going and not getting any closer." he snapped. His patients were wearing thin. "Just a bit further?" she said. Bulma stared ahead.
IT appeared to her that the beautiful green forest was becoming darker and darker shade of green. She also notice a dark cave looming beyond the forest. Their speed began to slow and they descended onto the ground. The trio landed outside the cave and Venux didn't even wait for anyone to say anything as she walked past Vegeta and into the cave. Bulma hopped down from Vegeta and the 2 quickly followed after Venux.
"Hello…where are we heading?" called Bulma clutching her medical kit to her. This place gave her the creeps. It sent shivers and down her spine. Vegeta's façade however was neutral. Still the same stone cold warrior. "Over here." came Venux's voice. They came to the part of the cave where there was a soft omitting glow of a roaring fire. There was a lil' girl with beautiful silver hair and hunched over the fire. Then Bulma noticed the body of an unconscious boy with lavender hair. Then everything made sense to her.
These were the slaves they were meant to seek and return to Cooler, unfortunately for everyone, Vegeta realized the same thing. The lil' girl looked up to see the 3 intruders. When she spotted Venux, a bright smile spread on her features as she ran up and gave Venux a huge hug. "Mommy Venux, Papa Trunks isn't doing so good." "I know and I brought help. Papa Trunks will be better in no time." she said at eye level with the child as she tried to reassure her.
Venux stood and looked at the shocked Bulma and the angered Vegeta. Venux felt the cold feeling of dread and ice in the pit of her stomach. "Wh-What is wrong?" she asked nervously as the lil' girl noticed the looks as well and hid behind Venux's leg.
"You are the escaped slaves of Cooler. Come with us. We must return you to your master." Vegeta said in a dangerous, non negotiable tone of voice as he went straight to the point. "We are not slaves! Please do not do this!" Venux begged as she backed away. Karara ran over to Trunks and began to wake him. Vegeta took a step forward to Venux as Bulma went over to the lil' girl and unconscious boy.
Karara looked at Bulma frightened. "Please don't hurt my Papa." the lil' girl begged. Bulma felt a tug at he heart. Then something blue caught her eye as she tried to console the small, frightened child. It was a locket. The same locket that had been in her family for generations. It was a round the boy's neck. She turned to him and took the locket in her hands as she pulled out her own from her around her neck.
Two wore the exactly identical lockets. Both ere the same shape. It was heart shaped and pure blue. Almost like azure or saffire. Inside Bulma's locket was blank. She planned on putting a picture of her family when she created one in it. But she opened the mysterious boy's and that was a whole 'nother story. Inside was a picture of her, only she looked much, much mature and she was holding a small babe in her arms as a much older and happier Vegeta was next to her and looking with a proud expression with that smirk of his as he looked adoringly at the small infant.
The babe, however, much resembled this boy with lavender locks and the same reflection of blue as her own. This frightened her. Just what was really going on here? Bulma dropped the locked as if it was on fire. Then she looked at the lil' girl. Bulma was scared and the lil' child noticed her uneasiness.
"Papa Trunks told me one time that those people in his locket were his Mommy and Daddy. They were taken from him when he was only a baby. That is why he takes care of me. Because he is my Papa and he will never leave or hurt me like that mean lizard man did to him and his family." she said simply with a broad smile on her face as if that explanation simply solved everything.
Vegeta stopped advancing on Venux and listened to the child. What the hell was she talking about? Vegeta also took note at the unusually pale Bulma at the boy's side. "Woman, what is wrong?" he demanded, "What does that Brat speak of?" Then it hit Venux like a blow to the brain. ("OF COURSE!") These people are from Trunks' locket! They were Trunks' parents!
Venux took a deep breath and stepped forward. "Bulma, Vegeta, there is something you both should know. My friend here is my boyfriend. His name is Trunks Vegeta Briefs, the result of your union, your own flesh and blood, the child from your futures."
Time stood still. The only sound was the crackling fire. Not even a peep, everyone was just stunned. Vegeta of course, was the first to react, and as we know if Vegeta doesn't understand anything he will react with anger. "YOU LIE YOU STUPID BITCH!" he lashed out at her. He was insulted. ("HOW DARE SHE MAKE ACCUSIONS ON HIS PRIDE AND HONOR! HIM AND THE WOMAN! WAS SHE MAD!")
Bulma stood from where she was sitting. "She is not lying Vegeta. She is telling the truth." she stated calmly in Venux's defense. Vegeta eyes grew wide with shock. But his anger quickly returned. "Woman you speak of foolishness! No way can that…Brat by my heir!" he yelled in frustration as his anger lashing came to Bulma instead of Venux. Bulma shook her head no. "Vegeta….she speaks the truth." Then she bent down to the boy and undid the locket opening. Vegeta walked over to her and took the locket in his hand and he came to the picture of the happy family.
He was shocked, angered, scared, and other feelings. So he did the one thing he could think of doing. He stood up and headed to the exit of the cave, "Vegeta?" Bulma asked as she got up and ran after him. Vegeta didn't even bother to look in her direction. "Woman, you will stay here with your son and you will take care of him. Find out some information. I will return shortly. Do not leave the cave and trust them. They will not hurt you. IS that understood?" he demanded in a unusually calm voice. He tried to suppress the anger as best as he could.
Bulma knew he needed time to sort out all of his feelings that she was feeling as well. So she nodded yes and he took off to the sky. Bulma watched him ascend into the heavens. A shaky sigh escaped her lips and a silent prayer to Kami that he would come back safe and soon. Also she hoped he would find peace in his raging emotions and that the storm in his cold, unbeating heart would cease as well. "Well, better get out my capsule house." she muttered to herself as she watched his form disappear and the knew that, that could be very well their hope leavening as well.
