Chapter 2- Welcome Back Party
Yamcha slept until around 6 PM, when he got up and got ready for the party, he found some long black pants, and a white collared shirt. He felt like dressing up a bit so he did, after that he made his way down to the living room, and sat down, and waited for everyone to arrive. First to arrive was Goku, and his wife Chi Chi. Yamcha was amazed at the little change in the appearance of Goku over the years. When Goku saw his old friend he went right over to him and sat down next to him.
"Hey, Yamcha, I can't tell you how great it is to have you back, we have all missed you so much, and for so long," Goku said.
"So, what is it like being 20 something, when all your friends are old," Chi Chi said walked over.
"Well, it is weird, in fact I am not sure how I am to act at all, I mean I never had a normal life, and now I don't know what to do," Yamcha said.
"Well, I am sure you will find something to do, you have always been resourceful," Chi Chi said smiling before leaving to find Bulma.
Yamcha smiled at his friend, and said, "Well, you have not change to much, or at least it does not appear that way."
"Your right, but I guess that is because I am an saiyan and all, but I have to say, it good to have you back Yamcha," Goku said, leaving to find food.
Yamcha shook his head, and though about how Goku was still Goku, which meant the world had not totally been destroyed. Soon, 18, Krillin, and Marron arrived as well. Yamcha would not of pick Krillin out in a crowd with the gray hair and all. He also could tell where Marron got her looks, and that was from the knockout of a mother she had. He got up to go say hello, but when Krillin saw him, he ran over and gave him a big hug.
"Wow, thank Krillin, it is good to see you, I guess that you got that hot chick you always said you would," Yamcha said smirking.
"Thanks, but it was not easy, let me tell you," Krillin said, "Anyway, it is nice to have you back, it was not right around here with out you man."
"Um, thanks, and thanks for coming," Yamcha said as Krillin and 18 went to find Goku. Yamcha could tell that Krillin's wife was not much of a social person.
Marron walked up to Yamcha, smiled at him and said, "Well, what has it been like to see all your friends old and all."
"Odd, considering I remember when I was the oldest one around, I can't say I thought I would ever see your dad with hair either" Yamcha said smilling.
"Well, he grew it when as a favor for my mother," Marron said.
"That makes sense then. I still think it is going to take me sometime to adjust to everything," Yamcha said.
"Well of course, you have been gone for so long, it is only right that it would take you time to adjust and all," Marron said.
Soon Gohan, Videl, and Pan arrived and Marron left to go and talk to Pan, and Yamcha returned to watching TV. He looked around for a familar little blue cat, hoping that he would see her, but at last he did not, he went and found Goku to ask about Puar. He found Goku still eating food.
"Um Goku, I was wondering if you know what happened to Puar," Yamcha asked.
Goku stopped eatting and looked at Yamcha and said with a frown, "Um well you see old pal, Puar just could not go on with out you around, and well she past away some time ago."
Yamcha sighed to himself, thinking about his old friend, hoping that the other world was treating her well.
SoonTien, Lunch and Chiaotzu arrived at the party as well. They also greeted Yamcha happly, and Yamcha was not surprised to find out that Tien had finally married Lunch. Soon everyone one was there, most of the people there he had meet in the past or earlier that day. The two he did not meet where Paresu, Goten's beautiful wife, and Uubu, Goku's dark skinned, Mohawk understudy. Yamcha then went into the dining room to find all of the saiyans, and part saiyans attacking all of the food, and the others just trying to get in and get a some food. It was a sight Yamcha never figured he would see in his life, a half dozen people fighting over a mountain of food. Yamcha found his way to the food and grabed a loose slab of brisket, and made his way to the living room. As he started to eat the food he was Uubu sitting looking blindly off into the distance.
Yamcha walked up to the boy and said, "Hey, Uubu is right, what is bothering you tonight."
"O, Mr. Yamcha, it is nothing, or at least nothing you can help me with," Uubu said frowning.
"Well try me, and non of this Mr. stuff, for Kami's Sake your older then me," Yamcha said smirking.
"Well, um there is this girl I like, I think you meet her, Bra, I want to tell her what I think about her, but I am afraid that she will just laugh at me. I mean I am sure that she does not see me as anything else then a friend," Uubu said.
"Well, if she is anything like her mother, I can help, you have to tell her the truth, trust me, part of the reason I had a rocky relationship with Bulma is that we did not do that, and we never told each other how we feel, I am sure if you told her what you feel, then nothing will come out bad from it," Yamcha said smiling.
"I will, and thanks for your help Yamcha," Uubu said walking off.
"That was a nice thing you just did there," a voice said from behind Yamcha.
Yamcha turned to see Pan dressed up in a red dress, he could tell she was not to bad looking, but neither were any of the other females there. Marron also joined them and said, "Have either of you seen Trunks I have been looking around for him everywhere."
As if commanded Trunks came in to the house, with a tall blonde girl with huge curves, and a pretty face. Marron just looked at Trunks, and then the girl in anger, and then went over and sat by her parent's frowning.
"Wow, um let me guess, she likes Trunks right," Yamcha said.
"Yeah, and it hurts her every time he brings home one of his bimbo's, I have to say I really feel sorry for her, and wish Trunks would just notice her for a change. I am sure they would make a fine couple," Pan said.
"Wow, I think you maybe right, I was wondering who is the wallflower over there by Piccolo," Yamcha said.
"Well that is Vegeta he is Bulma's husband," Pan said.
Yamcha started to laugh, and then said, "You mean Bulma would marry someone like that, o it just too funny, I guess that saying about opposites is true."
Pan looked at him a bit confused, and said, "I am surprised that you are not mad at the fact that Bulma got married and all. From what I hear you two were really close, but in the day of judgment you were rejected for a love of a prince"
Yamcha smiled and said, "True, but where not back in that day, I have to get to thinking in the here and now, and right now I am a 21 year old man, and I have no reason to worry about who a 50 something year old woman is married to. To be honest I just hope I can find my own place in this new world."
"Well, I have an idea, let me run it past Bulma and Trunks, and it they agree, I may be able to help you," Pan said smiling.
"Ok, but what is this plan of yours," Yamcha asked.
'Well, you see, the Briefs own there own Dojo, I was going to ask them to see if they would let you where there as the co manager with me. Also I know a apartment near Marron and mine, that is for sell, I am sure Bulma could help you pay for it, and you would get out of this old place, so what do you think," Pan said.
"Sounds good to me, I would like that chance to start fresh in life and all," Yamcha said.
"Ok, I will go and tell them, I am sure they will agree to it though," Pan said leaving.
A little bit latter, Bulma walked over and gave Yamcha a huge bottle of rare insects to remind him of the desert he looked over and figured out that Vegeta was in fact watching him the whole time when he was leaning against the wall.
"Well, I hope you had a fun time, I heard the idea of Pan's and I think it is a good one, I will go and buy the place tomorrow, also, I want to say I am sorry for the way I treated you so long ago, I know I was young, but still, I am sorry," Bulma said.
"No worries, but I must say your husband over there is kinda creeping me out," Yamcha said.
"Don't worry is just trying to figure out what my childhood love looked like. He is a good guy, once you get past the outside," Bulma said.
"Well, I guess he can't be to bad if you married him now can he," Yamcha said.
"Thank, I am really happy to hear you say that, I just hope you can find a life for yourself here and now," Bulma said before leaving Yamcha.
The rest of the party went by well, there was a lot of talking about events he was not apart of and well a lot of story telling of things he was a part of, and he remembered happened a bit differently then told. All in all it was a good time, and he was happy to see his friends, even if they where old, and he was not.
