Living Is A Lonely Life
Chapter 7: I do.
Bulma took one
last look at her home planet before boarding the ship to Vegeta.
She
sweep a few locks from her face and her eyes shined as she looked
over the land.
Nothing made her smile like Earth. Peaceful,
beautiful Earth, the land of her people and
her sanctuary. Vegeta
was opposite. No one, and I mean no one, could upset her faster
then
him. All he had to do was step foot into the same building as
her and she'd cringe and
frown. That was the reason she was
dreading this trip, it would mean them together
forever. And what
happened at a Sayian wedding anyhow? He never bothered to tell
her
one lick about it. Dumbass. Thinking of the devil...
"I'm
ready to leave this mud ball of a planet." Vegeta huffed pushing
past Bulma
rudely.
"Whatever." Bulma muttered and sighed entering behind him.
"I've told them to do light
all the way, we'll be there by dinner." Vegeta informed
Bulma
off hand and sat down reading himself for takeoff. Bulma sat a chair
behind him
and buckled herself in. This was going great so
far.
"Are you going to tell me anything about the sayian
wedding Vegeta, or will it all
be a surprise?"
"You'll find out soon enough."
"Sire, we are taking off in five seconds." A guard informed them bowing.
The ride was
uneventful and Bulma ignored Vegeta by going to sleep, though
he
still seemed to bother her just by being there. They arrived on
time and had just enough
time to change for dinner. Bulma smiled
and chatted in fake happiness to most the royal
guest and only one
found them selves unimpressed by her acting skills.
"Queen
Bulma, Such a pretty dress and that shade of green is lovely with
you're
eyes. Where did you find it?" Queen Roxanne asked
lightly running a finger over the silky
green dress.
"On
Earth." Bulma smiled and the Queen took her arm prying her away
from other
royalty to talk in private out in the garden.
"What's wrong?" Roxanna asked once seated.
"Nothing... Fine. I
don't know anything about a sayian wedding, my husbands a
jerk,
and I'm starting to think Earth might be better blown up instead of
in Vegeta's care."
Bulma looked down. "Sorry he's your
son, I shouldn't speak ill of him."
"Oh, you haven't
said anything I wouldn't, less actually. Vegeta is a pig
headed
jackass, but... he is smart and will know that Earth is
important to him, and the trade
industry. Earth will be fine in
his and your care. As for you and him… I can't say. Yet, as
a
child my mother read to me a story, one from Earth- it was from a
large collection of
'Fairy Tales', the story was long and I
don't remember every word but I remember the
jests. There was a
beautiful daughter of a inventor, her father got lost in the woods
and
came upon a old castle which was under a spell, the servants
all appliances and the King, a
horrible beast. Yet the beauty
risked it all to come and save her father and take his place as
the
capture. Thus the beast treated her with more respect and dignity
then he had her
father, soon they were both in love with each
other and at the end of the story a kiss from
the beauty broke the
spell." The Queen waited a moment to see Bulma's smile then said
in
a more understanding tone. "My son would never treat a
capture different just because of
it's gender, nor would he give
the capture freedom, nor would he let one go in turn for the
other
he'd have captured her and tortured them both to death for the fun
of it." Roxanna
looked away from the dreadful look on Bulma's
face. "Yet, he like the beast might
change if given the right
Beauty, and Kiss."
"I think I get what you're saying.
About the Sayian wedding though, what will
happen?"
"A
primal ritual. We, the sayian race, actually don't use it too much
anymore. We
have grown to bonding and Earthling weddings. He has
decided on this way to embrace
you... yet, he has forgotten. You
have to spend the night alone with me."
"Why?"
"It
was a loop for mothers who didn't like the chosen girl to get rid
of her. But,
we'll use this as a excuse to get my son fired up."
Roxanna smiled much like her son and
stood up. "Lets get ready
shall we." Bulma nodded and stood not understanding
but
trusting.
Vegeta stretched out in his bed and smirked
at the though of Bulma in tomorrows
ceremonies. He laughed out
loud and turned to lay on his side. "Get ready Woman, you'll
hate
me for this."
"What was that Prince-" The naked woman
beside him squeaked as he enclosed a
hand around her neck.
"I'm a King." He blasted her into the after world and smiled lightly.
The next day everything was getting ready. There was
tables being set up outside
and entertainment was coming in.
Fighters, animals, other planet entertainers and exotic
dancers.
The ceremony was scheduled at night and it was noonish. Vegeta
was
wondering around with nothing to do. He knew how the night
events were to happen.
1.) Have dinner
2.) Exchange rights
3.) Exchange blood
4.) Fights
5.) The Run
6.) Well... what he had been waiting for..
Vegeta
smirked as he though of himself and Bulma alone in the woods. The
run
would be fun then after he would get his way. He checked the
watch and sighed. It was
still hours away.
"Vegeta might
I have a word with you." The King of Vegeta asked,
well
commanded.
"I assume you will anyways."
"But of course. Now then, what are your plans for Earth?"
" That ' s none of your concern. "
"It is when for your
gift you asked for 3/4ths the sayian army, a few of my greatest
men
at that."
"If you're concerned for this planet, don't
be. One day I will inherit Vegeta and so I
will not cause it
harm."
"So you won't tell me?"
"No way, old man."
"Very well. Why not go to the springs and get ready?"
"Fine. Whatever." Vegeta turned walking off.
Soon the ceremony began. The royalty was seated above the
common folk, yet
everyone was welcome to eat and watch the
ceremony. First was dinner, Bulma was not
aloud to eat with them,
she wasn't aloud to show herself until the third part and she
would
be concealed. Vegeta looked at his parents and say his
mother looked a bit too happy. He
narrowed his eyes as she walked
over to began the second part.
"In the presets of all
sayians and guest, I give over all my rights of caretaker to
the
Queen of Earth, Bulma Briefs daughter of the late Bunny and
Dr. Briefs, she has sworn to
take care and honor my son until her
death. I give my blessing and hopes for healthy
sons and daughters
to their homes." The Queen took hold of her sons face and kissed
him
three times. The first on the forehead and the on the cheeks.
She bowed and took a few
steps back giving room for her husband to
enter.
The King cleared his throat and looked at his wife then
son. "I in front of the sayian
race and guest, hereby announce
that King Vegeta of Earth will still in turn inherit Vegeta
on my
deathbed and everything I own, or owe. Thus I also offer him complete
truce and
allieship in any battle that may find him. I accept,
Queen Bulma of Earth herby as my
daughter and also wish a son and
many girl children on him." The King of Vegeta looked
rather
board and kissed his son's head before stepping back. From the
shadows a cloaked
and masked, with a cloak hood and simple silver
metal face mask, woman appeared the
only skin visible her right
hand and wrist covered yet in a material like fishnets.
She
approached Vegeta and bowed lightly to the King and Queen
before handing the Queen her
right wrist, Vegeta handed his father
his own and both parents drew a silver dagger stabbing
in unison
where the wrists of each met, Vegeta's over Bulma's and neither
of them crying
out, the ceremony continued.
Bulma was lead
away by the Queen and Vegeta by The King to get ready for
step
four.
A circle was made out of brick and cement,
inside were two cells, one of females
the other males. Vegeta,
King of Earth, entered first and opened the male cage. Twelve
large
Sayians stepped out armed with axes, spears, or maces. Then enclosed
around him. A
fight to the death, if the others won, then they
inherited everything Vegeta had just gotten.
In no time the fight
ended with Vegeta covered in blood and smiling.
But that was
only part one. Vegeta walked over to the female cage. In the
cage
were thirteen females, all wearing the same clothes and mask.
Vegeta was to choice which
one was Bulma just by the poster and
heath reading he got from himself. The females
were too covered to
tell size or shape of their figures. However many times
Vegeta
guessed wrong Bulma would have to fight.
Vegeta
pointed to a woman who removed her mask. Gray cold eyes stared
at
Vegeta and he let her out to get ready to fight. He thought a
moment before picking the
next girl; she removed her mask and
smiled lightly at him her dark black hair fanning out
around her
in the sayian manner of long spikes. Bulma would have to fight two as
of now,
and knowing Bulma she wouldn't be able to handle them,
so Vegeta was thinking. Eleven
left and Vegeta's eye caught on
something. He pointed to the girl and she removed her
mask, blue
eyes and yet blonde hair greeted him. He cursed lightly at the crowds
laugh
and pointed to another girl, move at random. She removed her
mask and Vegeta blinked, it
was Bulma, yet her hair had been cut
and styled in a sayian fashion, which he hissed at,
her pale skin
had been coved in something to darken it and she had light painted
markings
on her skin.
"Damn mother." He hissed and let
her out of the cell. All four women removed the
heavy cloaks and
were left in their chosen clothes.
The first in a amazonish
style armor, the second in sayian armor, the third in no
armor but
a belly shirt and black jeans (From Earth.). Bulma took her time
undressing as
Vegeta's eyes were on her. She smiled lightly and
fought off a laugh at his look. She had
nothing on but a mesh
skirt much like pictures of jennies wore and a mesh tub top
showing
off everything. On her wrist was a band to cancel out the
gravity. Vegeta closed his mouth
and let out a hiss staring at his
mother. "What did she do?" He asked hissing in
Bulmas
ear.
"Don't you like it? She introduced me to
immortal cream as well." Bulma smiled
lightly.
"Figures,
only reason you look decent huh?" Vegeta laughed and pushed
her
forward in the the fight. "Have fun losing."
"Don't count on it." Bulma said with a smile.
"Immortal cream, Roxanna?" The King of Vegeta smirked.
"Well yes, it lifts
the skin and hides any blemishes that might have accrued... such
as
stab wounds, bruises caused by our son, you know, plus it tightens
the skin and hides
ageing signs."
Bulma smiled and let
the girls make the first moves. She wasn't strong but, she had
a
gravity band, if she lowered the gravity she could run faster then
them and if she made it
right on fist and foot contact she could
hit and kick harder. So she did, and after a good
hour she was
worn out and panting yet the victor.
"Nice trick." Vegeta laughed.
"Thanks." Bulma muttered and walked over to him
after evening her breath.
"Seems, it's almost over."
"I'll give you a head start then." Vegeta offered.
"I'll take
you up on that." Bulma turned and walked off, yet turned the
gravity on
her band down lower. She began to run though it was
faster due to the less gravity. After
about five minutes Vegeta
followed her, catching up in no time. Bulma looked back at him
and
growled, she did not want to be caught. If she was that'd be the
end and then it'd be
time to give her self over to him. Yet she
was wore out from fighting and noticed her steps
becoming unsure
and unsteady. She fell and Vegeta was there catching her, holding her
in
sure arms, his fingers pressing into her skin and carefully
caressing her, she noticed he
wasn't smirking and she smiled
lightly laughing though out of breath and heart
beating
fast.
"What?" Vegeta asked defensively. "What's so funny?"
Bulma shook her head. "Nothing. Nothing... I
just, though for a moment you
actually cared about my
safety."
"But I do." He smirked and in a motion laid her
down on the ground his lips
pressed to hers.
