Chapter 5
A rival Appears from the Stars
"We are lost," 18 stated.
"No we're not...We just aren't sure where we are," Krillin said vaugely. He reached over and pushed another button, jumping about 3 feet when red lights started flashing and the alarms went off.
18 sighed and turned off the alarms, then glared at Krillin. "We are lost."
Krillin sighed. "Yes. But we'll figure it out, don't worry..."
"I'm not worried," 18 said, pushing him out of the chair. "We'll just stop here..." She pointed at a planet on the viewscreen. "And get directions."
"But..." Yamcha started.
"We are stopping here," 18 glared at the others, daring them to say anything.
"Ok, fine," Yamcha said. "But if we get killed, it's your fault."
18 smirked, took them into orbit, hit a button, and asked for directions to the planet Vegetasei.
+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+
"Bulma!" Chi-Chi screamed. "Are you even listening to me?"
"I'm sorry, did you say something?" Bulma inquired sweetly. She didn't move her eyes away from the blueprints she had been given to look over.
"Bulma!" Chi-Chi screeched indignantly.
Bulma sighed, laying the blueprints in her lap. Looking at her sister, she said, "Chi-Chi, I've heard everything you're saying a thousand times already. You've been going on about it since you got back from your tour. Over a week ago!"
Chi-Chi sent a death glare in Bulma's direction, then stomped out of the room.
Bulma sighed again, then looked at the clock. 'Aww shit,' she thought. 'I'm going to be late!' The time between lunch and supper, the girls were allowed to roam around and do whatever they'd like, and Bulma had got into the habit of working with Dr. Briefs.
She smiled as she walked into his workroom, noticing that he was nowhere in sight, but there was the clank coming from a big, metal box.
"Dr.?" Bulma walked over to the other side, where the Dr. was attaching a door to the box. "What is this?"
"Did you look at the blueprints I gave you last night?" Dr. Briefs asked in a muffled voice.
"Yes, but I can't figure out what it's all for," Bulma looked at the blueprints again. "I mean, I know it'll be cold inside, but why would you want to go inside of a cold box?"
Dr. Briefs chuckled and finally came out. "You don't go inside of it, Princess, you put food inside of it."
Bulma frowned. "Why?"
"To keep it fresh," Dr. Briefs answered, pulling some wires and stuff from his workbox. "So if you don't eat it all, you can eat it another day."
"Oh," Bulma said quietly. Then she smiled. "Well, what should I do first?"
+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+
"Where is she?" Vegeta asked quietly. He had found Chi-Chi in the dining room, talking with one of the guards.
"Who, Bulma?" Chi-Chi slipped her arm through Vegeta's.
"Yes," Vegeta crossed his arms, forcing Chi-Chi to let go. "Where is she?"
"I don't know," Chi-Chi pouted. "She takes off after lunch and doesn't come back until supper. She won't tell me where she goes, either." She leveled the prince with a steady glare. "Why do you want to know, anyway?"
Vegeta raised an eyebrow at her. "If you must know, she is stronger than most of my sparing partners, so she is going to start sparing with me in the afternoons. Now, do you know in which direction she goes?"
"No, I don't," Chi-Chi huffed. "Why don't you ask Kakarott?"
"Kakarott?" Vegeta asked. "What does he have to do with it?"
"Well, Bulma was complaining about him having no memory the other day when she got back," Chi-Chi murmured coyly. "She didn't sound mad, though; she was smiling, now that I think about it."
"Hmm...Thank you," Vegeta growled, then walked off down the hall.
+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+
"I can't believe we were here, and didn't even know it," Krillin mumbled as they walk down the street towards the castle.
"I can," 18 smirked.
"What do we do when we get there?" Tien asked. "Just ask for the Prince and demand our scientist back?"
"Basically," Yamcha said. "But if he refuses, how do we get Dr. Briefs back?"
"I don't care if I have to kill his highness," 18 muttered darkly. "I am through watching over Capsule Corp. The Dr. will be coming home with us, no buts about it."
"Well, we're here," Yamcha said nervously. "Who wants to knock?"
"Move," Piccolo said, pushing Yamcha out of the way. (A/N Do you really think I could leave Piccolo out of this fic?) He walked up to the door and knocked.
+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+
"Dr. Briefs!" Vegeta stormed into the workroom before Bulma could hide. Vegeta glared at her, then turned back to the Dr. "Some of your Earth friends have come to see you. You are to be in the dining room in fifteen minutes. Onna, come with me." Vegeta then turned and stalked out before she could reply.
Bulma sighed. "I'll see you later, Dr." She walked out and caught up to Vegeta. "What do you want?"
"Is this where you go after lunch?" Vegeta demanded.
"Is that any of your business?" Bulma countered.
Vegeta turned and crossed his arms. "As a matter of fact, it is," He replied. "You are going to be sparing with me after lunch starting tomorrow, is that understood?"
"What?" Bulma gasped. "But..."
Vegeta smirked. "But what?"
At a loss for words, Bulma turned to leave. She hadn't made it two steps, however, when she felt him grab her arm above the elbow in a tight grip. She turned a glare on him, causing him to smirk again.
"Did I say you could leave?" He questioned pleasantly.
"Let...Me...Go...." Bulma demanded between her teeth.
Vegeta slammed her against the wall, holding her arms above her head. "Make me."
+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+
Ok, I know it's kinda short and it's been forever since an update. I'm really sorry!!! Please don't hurt me...*whimper* I have an excuse!!!
First, my friend was here. Second, I have a job at the zoo, so I'm outside all the time, and it's HOT!!! It's tiring, too. Third, our computer has viruses, so it's not running all that well. I'm surprised it even let me upload this. Are those enough excuses?? Please say yes...
I promise the next chappie will be out soon. Till then, please review!!!
Look!!! It's the next chapter!!!
