What's it been, 2-3 years? I've decided in this time that I have become increasingly grouchy at those who have forsaken fandom for aging. Especially since some of my favorite things have stopped being updated, i.e.: adimra's Forever 4, Madperson's Soul Under, etc. All of these beautiful works and not one update among them. And then I realized, I have no right to be angry, because I myself haven't even had the balls to finish a work I started nearly 5 years ago. And so now, I'm back. Hoorah. I doubt anyone even remembers me anymore. It's creepy that I was on this page when there were only 10 DBZ fanfics at all. It's creepy that I'm getting so old. But that's all right. Enjoy what I've created. Just remember these 2 things, 1: I don't own DBZ, 2: I haven't written or really read up on Chimera in 2-3 years, that means my writing style will be quite different as will my memory of what this fic entails. I hope you'll be understanding.

Thanks guys! I've missed this place.

"That's IT? That fucking bitch! And here I thought I'd have practice. I got a better work out when I let my own son beat the shit out of me!"

"Woman! Calm yourself. In a moment I'm going to start checking for a tail. You're sounding like a Saiyan."

"Maybe I am! Goddammit. I just want to … grrrr."

Vegeta grinned, though he tried his damnedest not to show it. She was a thousand times more attractive now than she had ever been. He had always thought that when she was a weaker human, she was desirable because she could be dominated. However, now he had finally found an equal in all things, and it was … intoxicating.

Bulma nodded toward the giant red doors ahead of them.

"That's Gangesh's office. You ready?"

"I'm following you."

She smiled. "First time I've ever heard you say that."

He smiled back. "A lot of firsts today."

She was too damned happy. She needed to stop feeling that way. If she could only fight more monsters she wouldn't feel like the stupid girl her body was trying to make her be right now. But she couldn't deny the fact that after a 2 year separation, she longed for her husband painfully. If only those ridiculous butterflies would go away. She hadn't felt this giddy in a long time.

Finally she understood why he had seen her as a weakness during the Cell Games. Why he had left her to become a Super Saiyan. Love really was a distraction. Especially with their kind of fire. Sad but true.

She moved to walk through the doors and Vegeta walked behind her coolly. Bulma couldn't deny she enjoyed the control. It was a lovely rarity she would have to get used to.

There wasn't a lock on Gangesh's door. She didn't understand. However, Bulma wasn't thinking straight that day. It was only as she opened the door that she realized her error.

A flash of ki whizzed by her, burning off a lock of hair just as Vegeta dove on top of her. Bulma's mind instantly focused to see a confused Sed standing beside an even more confused Gangesh. They were both armed with blasters, and Sed also had a Cuff-thrower. Vegeta didn't know what those were. They hadn't expected her to bring her husband. No one had the upper-hand just yet. Good.

"Don't move Bulma!" Sed screamed, his hand shaking precariously on his blaster.

"Pretty foolish, Sed," she said, realizing that she didn't look very clever herself, speaking from underneath Vegeta. However, he couldn't seem to get off of her. Goddammit, she thought, he's still protecting me.

"Who's truly the foolish one? You should have known better you cold bitch. It's bad business to kill an employer. We were obviously testing your loyalty!"

There was a pause. And another.

"Obviously," Bulma said dryly, hoping they would continue. Thank Kami Vegeta knew how to hover, otherwise she would probably be suffocating right now.

"Well you failed!" Sed said, as if that proved everything. She didn't want to laugh, but it actually looked like he was whining. However, she wasn't stupid, she wouldn't laugh at someone who had a blaster pointed at her face.

"Okay then, I failed. But it's kind of a double standard don't you think? I mean, yeah I went to kill Gangesh, but he was also the target I was told to kill. What the fuck Sed? Are you actually trying to kill me? I was your best employee."

"You were," he replied. "That was the problem. You were too good, too powerful. Gangesh and I realized our error. It's never smart to hire an assassin that's both powerful and smart. You can't find weaknesses in those."

The two men were standing behind Gangesh's desk shivering. Their blasters looked like they might go off at any minute, just out of sheer nerve.

"You're not a threat to me now and you know it."

"So you think, but there's one thing we've done to this fortress that you're unaware of," Sed whimpered, his voice shaking furiously.

"And what's that," Bulma asked calmly. Her eyes had gone dead and she felt that perfect silence within her. The only thing she could feel was Vegeta's heartbeat that was softly beating against her. He was calm and ready, and so was she.

"We've made it impossible for you to teleport out of this place. If you try, you will make it no further than the ceiling where your trip in hyperspace will become scrambled and you will explode. I doubt even your kind of power could help you."

Fuck. That had, of course, been her plan. She could handle blasters, but Cuff-throwers were dangerous. If hit by them, they would immerse you in a ki containment field that would complete absorb any energy a person had. And because of their substance, one could not deflect them. She had planned on finding out who she needed to kill later and then teleporting out of this new crazy boss attack zone. Now she was stuck with a big Vegeta on her back and the possibility of being killed by idiots when she was days away from revenge on the one man she hated more than anything.

Oh hell no.

"Vegeta," she said softly. "Don't get hit by the red gun whatever you do."

Sed's eyes widened and he squeezed on the trigger. Bulma felt Vegeta tense as the bright light of the containment field swept their way. Her eyes narrowed as her muscles reacted and she felt him quickly fly in the opposite direction of her as they dodged the enormous containment field that had nearly caught them both.

They were now on either side of the room. Sed and Gangesh looked from Vegeta to Bulma and then at each other. There was a horror in their eyes that is usually reserved for a creature that knows it's about to die. Bulma growled and felt her power building. She looked across the room and saw Vegeta doing the same. Sed and Gangesh would not die slowly this day.

Poor bastards.

So I wrote this at 4 in the morning. It was a quick add, and I'll do more soon I promise, just something to let you all know I'm actually updating.

HOLY SHIT! I updated.

Wow. I'm going to go cry now. Later.
