Thanks for the reviews people!

Chapter 2

Two weeks had passed since Bulma's tantrum occurred due to her high school predicament. During those weeks, the maids and the butler carefully steered clear of the young mistress's way. Her temper was raging and nothing was safe in her sight. She already destroyed two cleaning bots, her father's laptop, and various antiques since her stubborn father did not relent even after all the tears and screams that were thrown his way. Some maids speculated the young mistress would give up eventually. They were wrong however.

Mrs. Briefs woke up bright and early on a Sunday morning. She glanced at her sleeping husband and sighed.

"I don't know how he sleeps so peacefully after what has happened," she said to herself. Shaking her head, she decided to once and for all, end the tension that had encased her family. She was going to have a one on one talk with her daughter. Just as she was stepping out of her room, Chester arrived with a telephone in tow.

"Thank-you Chester, I'll take the call right now since the Professor is still asleep," she automatically replied.

"Of course Mrs. Briefs. Shall I take my leave?"

"Please wait until I finish this call, I may have further instructions for you."

She took the phone from him and walked towards the west corridor.

"Hello this is Mrs. Briefs may I ask who is calling?"

"Hello Mrs. Briefs, I'm a representative from Westhaven Institution. I'm calling to confirm your daughter's placement test. I'm surprised to see that she signed up for the 3rd year placement test even though she's enrolled as a 1st year but seeing that she's Professor Briefs' daughter well this is expected of course from such a prodigy."

"3rd year? I think you've made a mistake; I've set up a 1st year placement test spot for her."

"I'm sorry ma'am but we received a call on Friday changing the placement tests. But don't worry based on your daughter's transcript, we have no objection of her taking the 3rd year test. She is very well qualified. I'm sure you're very happy that she's taking this initiative. It's not everyday that we have such a qualified and determined prodigy who wants to challenge herself. I'm sure you and Professor Briefs are so proud of having a daughter like Bulma."

"Why yes..." Bunny Briefs answered with a puzzled look on her face.

"Well I'm glad to tell you that we've secured her 3rd year test next Friday 1:30 pm sharp even though she signed up after the placement test deadline. You can tell Bulma to come around 1:00 pm to sign in with a valid id. Thank you for your time and hopefully we'll see your daughter at Westhaven at the start of school. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to call us."

"..Yes I will...Thank you for calling...Goodbye."

"Goodbye."

"What in heaven's name did Bulma do now?" she wondered to herself as she hung up the phone in shock. She gave the phone back to Chester and ordered him to start breakfast because she had other important matters to attend to. As she walked along the west corridor, a very strange sight greeted her. Through her daughter's bedroom door crack, she saw that the lights were on.

"How very strange...it's only 7:00am she shouldn't be up right now." As she pushed the door open, she was surprised to see books littering the bedroom floor. There were papers strewn across furniture and classical music was softly playing in the background. Instead of sleeping like she always was on a Sunday morning around 7:00 am, Bulma Briefs was studying.

"Bulma what are you doing?" her mother perplexedly asked.

"...What does it look like I'm doing mother...yep the graph is curved I was definitely right..." she responded sleepily.

"But its 7:00 am in the morning. What are you studying for anyway?" Bunny said as she went across the room to turn off the music.

"Mom don't turn it off! The music helps me with calculus so leave it," Bulma quickly ordered.

"Calculus? Does this have to do with the 3rd year placement test? Just what are you trying to pull young lady? And look at me when you're answering!"

Bulma carefully laid down her pencil and brushed her blue hair out of her face. Not that it helped because it went back to the state as it was before, blocking part of her vision. She starred at the woman who gave birth to her, who didn't bother defending her wishes when her stupid father enrolled her against her will to his stupid alma mater. How dare this woman demand an answer from her!

"Darn, I was gonna wait until Dad woke up to tell them but hmmm...this is just as good. Should I just tell her now?" Bulma contemplated to herself. She decided to break the news to her mother.

"Well...since you guys are adamant about me going to Westhaven and I don't want to...I've decided to enroll as a 3rd year."

"And why would you do that?"

"So I only have to stay in that hellhole for one year and get out," she sweetly announced to her mother.

"You think this will solve your problem? Please Bulma...enrolling as a 3rd year? Honey...You're only hurting yourself. What if you do pass and we both know you will, just think about it...all your classmates will be older than you. Don't you want to enjoy your high school life like a normal person? Plus your father will be so disappointed in you. Don't do this."

"Puh-leze. First of all it's my choice and I wouldn't do this if it wasn't all your fault. I never wanted to go to that stupid school. And why would Dad get mad at me? Because I'm smart enough to pass the 3rd year placement test? I could'vebeena 3rd year years ago but I wanted to be with my friends but you both have taken that away from me so I have no reasons not to," she replied with a frown.

Suddenly she was overwhelmed with emotion because she never made such a drastic choice in her life. Her parents always allowed her to do what she wanted. It wasn't like her to defy them when it came to the choices they did make for her. To hide these emotions from her mother, she focused on her calculus book once more.

Bunny Briefs starred at her daughter for quite a long time in astonishment. She didn't know what to do anymore.

She walked over to her baby girl and slowly lifted her face. There was fire burning in her bright blue eyes, which she hadn't seen since Bulma was in the science fair last summer. Determination, pride, anger, and a spec of hurt were reflected upon her pupils. Nothing could stop her daughter when she had that look in her eyes. Her determination was just like her husbands' when he was building a new invention. She slowly brushed Bulma's soft hair away from her face.

"Okay ...I'll leave you alone now since it seems like you don't want to talk about it. Don't stress out too much and breakfast will be ready soon. Do you want me to send something up or are you coming down?"

"Uh...I'll come down later?"

"Around an hour will do and oh...don't worry I'll talk to your father about this so you go on ahead and study. Your test is next Saturday at 1:30 pm; I'll have Chester drive you there."

"Okay Mom."

"And Bulma...You can always change your mind...you know that right?"

Bulma glanced at her mother to see if she meant it. Bunny Briefs starred back at her with a solemn expression. Unspoken messages were sent between the two and the blue haired prodigy nodded her head and glanced down at her math book, breaking the connection.

"Wow, that was pretty weird, I thought she was gonna blow a gasket. Wonder what changed her mind...I didn't even have to argue over it," Bulma thought smugly to herself as her mother left.

Unknowingly, her announcement to enroll as a 3rd year will affect her more than she thought it would.

Please Review because... 1. Feedback is a good thing :) 2. It motivates me to write another chapter
