Vegeta smirked as the 'woman' struggled under his hard grip, her arms flailing and her legs kicking around. His smirked disappeared when he felt her bite down hard into his hand, which was covering her mouth, and as he felt her knee connect with his crotch. "Foolish woman", he hissed, pushing Bulma to the ground, and pulling himself on top of her. He glared at her, and watched, as she cowered in fear.
"That's better", he whispered, smirking evilly at her. With his free hand, he pushed her hair from her face, his smirk unfaltering, as he watched Bulma cringe.
"Now, I don't know what goes on inside that pretty little head of yours, but I bet you didn't see this coming. We are leaving now; alone", Vegeta muttered, sneering at the terrified Bulma. Vegeta hoisted both himself and Bulma up from the floor with ease, causing Bulmas eyes to grow wide. He then stealthily crept from the motel, past the now snoozing Radditz; who was snoring rather loudly; and out into the car park. He raised an eyebrow as he watched Bulmas eyes fill with amusement, as they walked towards the car. "What, woman", he asked, in a very annoyed voice. Bulma pointed at the car, then back to the motel room they where meant to be staying at. Then it clicked to Vegeta; Radditz had the car keys.
"That's not a problem woman, because we are not driving", Vegeta said in a mock tone. Vegetas smug smirk grew even wider, as he looked at the woman's puzzled features.
"We are going for a quick flight, while its still dark. We are in the middle of no where, so I find it hard to believe, that anyone will spot us", said Vegeta, laughing evilly, as Bulmas face fell back into the 'terrified' mode. Vegeta knew that Radditz would not be able to sense his rise in energy when he started flying, as he was sleeping. But Kakarrot; was he still unconscious? Or would he be now well enough to sense Vegetas escape? SHIT! Radditz would have used that medicine on Kakarrot, so he will be able to sense me as soon as I leave the ground, Vegeta thought, tightening his grip on Bulma.
"Change of plan", Vegeta murmured. Bulma cringed, as Vegeta hoisted her up into his arms, holding her as though she was a baby. Then, before Bulma could even blink, Vegeta started running off down the road. Bulma would have laughed at Vegetas stupid antics; had he not been so fast! He was running faster then a BULLET TRAIN, off down the road and into the dark. As soon as they where about 50 meters from the motel, he let go of his grip on Bulmas mouth, and brought his hand down to her waist.
"HELP ME", Bulma screamed, rather hysterically.
"Too late woman! No one can hear you", Vegeta taunted, speeding up his sprint to an insane level. Bulma stopped screaming eventually; when she had practically lost her voice; and just shut her eyes, trying to push this whole terrible nightmare from her head.
"This isn't happening", she moaned, in a pained voice.
"Oh, it is woman", Vegeta hissed evilly, a terrible look in his cold black eyes. Soon, we will be back at the headquarters. And then... Nothing can stop me, thought Vegeta, as they travelled down the deserted road.
Goku grinned goofily, as Chi Chi held onto his shoulder, keeping him steady so as he wouldn't fall from bed. Truth be told, he could now sit up properly and keep himself steady, but he liked having Chi Chis soft hands on his arms. "Alright Goku, can you hold yourself up yet? Maybe you should just lay down and get some rest", Chi Chi suggested to him, a concerned look in her eyes. Wow! She's actually talking to me, Goku thought, his grin widening.
"What are you so happy about? You're meant to be hurt", Chi Chi snapped, an annoyed look on her face.
"Is this better", asked Goku, pouting at her and making horrible moaning noises; as though he was an injured animal.
Chi Chi just laughed at him, playfully punching his arm, and said, "Yeah right, faker"! Chi Chi then let go of Goku and went back over to where her bald friend Krillin was lying on the floor, snoring. Goku pulled himself out of bed, groaning as his sore limbs stretched under his body weight. Lucky for that Brief' Doctors special healing medicine, thought Goku, as he walked towards Chi Chi. "Okay Chi Chi, stay here. I'm just going to go and check on Radditz and the others", he said to her, grinning.
"Not like I have many places to go to Goku. I've been taken hostage, remember", said Chi Chi, sarcasm dripping from her voice. But, dense old Goku didn't catch on to her sarcasm, and just nodded stupidly back at her.
"Won't be long", he told her, before walking from the room. As Goku walked out of the room, he came into a hallway, which connected with the other rooms. Wonder where Bulma, Radditz and Vegeta are, he wondered, scanning the rooms. His attention was suddenly drawn to the sound of a Television. Ahhh, I bet thats Radditz, he thought, following the sound of the television into a small room with a TV and an old looking couch. Sure enough, there was Radditz, snoozing on the couch. Wonder how angry he'd get if I kicked him, wondered Goku, snickering. As he was about to kick his brother, a thought suddenly struck him. Who the heck was watching Bulma? If Vegeta was out cold, she could be doing anything; she may now even be running out and calling the cops! "Radditz! Wake up you dunderhead", Goku yelled, in a very annoyed voice, at the same time, kicking his unsuspecting, snoozing brother in the gut; very hard!
"FUCK GOKU", hissed Radditz, clutching his stomach, and gasping for air now very awake and very angry!
"Who the hell is watching the Briefs' girl", asked Goku in a harsh whisper, glaring at his brother. Radditz' eyes seemed to double in size; Goku had never seen them so wide!
"Damn it", Radditz snarled, getting up and rushing towards Vegetas room, Goku not far behind. Radditz ran into the open door, and flicked on the light, frantically surveying the room for Bulma and Vegeta.
"Goku", said Radditz, in a rather shaken voice.
"What is it? Where is Bulma", asked Goku, raising an eyebrow.
"I don't know. But thats not what I'm worried about. Vegeta is gone too", said Radditz, in a stern tone.
"WHAT", asked Goku, eyes widening.
18 awoke to the sound of yelling from the other end of the apartment. What the heck is going on, she wondered, groaning in a mixture of pain and annoyance. 18 forced herself to sit up, groaning as her body adjusted under her weight. She noticed the brunette girl and the bald guy where now also sitting up, probably wondering about the same thing as herself. "Where's Goku, Vegeta and Radditz", 18 asked them; suddenly realising she wasn't with them. Maybe they're in another room, she thought, pushing some of her hair back from her face.
"Vegeta, Bulma and Radditz are in another room. And Goku just ran out a moment earlier", said Chi Chi, in a rather cold voice. 18 didn't even look at Chi Chi or say anything in reply; she didn't really have the chance to take anything in; because at this very moment, a very frantic pair of grown Saiyans rushed into the room, with very pale faces.
"What's going on", asked 18, rolling her eyes at the sight of the 2 frightened men. It was rather laughable, but 18 wasn't in the mood for jokes. The 2 mean fidgeted under her piercing stare, neither of them wanting to speak.
"What's going on", 18 reiterated, glaring at the brothers.
"Ummm, we have a small catastrophe on our hands", muttered Goku, a weak smile on his pale face.
"And? Come on, spit it OUT", she snarled, a very angry look plastered on her usually calm face.
"And Vegeta and the Brief' girl are gone", mumbled Radditz, how only Goku could hear.
"WHAT? I can't hear you! Speak up", 18 spat, now standing up and walking over to Radditz, placing an accusing finger on his chest.
"Vegeta and the girl are gone", Radditz blurted out, in a rather loud, hysterical way.
"You idiot! Why weren't you watching them? Ahhh, what the hell where you doing", 18 asked, a disbelieving look in her cold, blue eyes.
"He was sleeping", Goku piped in, a devilish grin on his face.
"FOOL", 18 yelled, punching Radditz square in the face, and causing him a nose bleed. That fool! And that traitor Vegeta! How could he take off without us, 18 wondered, frowning angrily. Behind them, Chi Chi had fainted into Krillins arms, after hearing what Radditz had to say; Krillin was fanning her with his hand, a very shocked look on his face.
"We have to hurry up and follow after them", said 18, glaring at her boyfriend Radditz, who was frowning at her, clutching his nose. Served the moron right, she thought, rolling her eyes at him.
"Chill out 18! They can't be far. They must have left by foot, because I haven't sensed a rise in Vegetas powers", said Goku in a reassuring voice.
"Look Goku, they could have left a long time ago. Yes, they would have been on foot at first, but, as soon as they got far enough away, Vegeta would have taken off in an instant. Its still dark", said 18, in an 'I can't believe you are so dense' sort of voice. 18 always made it a habit to talk to Goku, as if he was an idiot; she couldn't get to grips with the fact that such an imbecile could be stronger then her.
"Like I was saying before I was interrupted; lets go", 18 said in a grumpy voice, sending an angry glare in Gokus direction.

Zarbon and Dodoria marched through a large city, a hoard of Kold warriors following them, sending out random blasts, and destroying anything that would get in their way. Zarbon let out a malicious laugh, as he sent a fatal blast at a young lady who was huddled over a child, trying to protect them. "Theres no point trying to avoid the inevitable", Zarbon yelled, the Kolds behind him erupting in a roar of cheers and whoops, as they continued to wreak havoc. Zarbons good mood was soon disturbed though, when a young Kold Warrior landed right in front of him, grinning from ear to ear. "You better have a good reason for stopping me like that", Zarbon threatened, glaring dangerously at the youth. The youth seemed a little taken aback, but he soon regained his nerves, staring Zarbon square in the eye.
"Commander Zarbon, I think what I have to say to you will be worth the wait. I found the Saiyan head quarters; I caught a glimpse of a Saiyan heading off that way, so I followed him, and he led me straight to their base! Low IQs, that lot", the proud Kold warrior beamed, waiting for a reply.
"Well, what are you waiting for? Where is it", asked Dodoria, his bulging, fat face full of excitement.
"This way", the warrior replied, hurrying off down the road. After some travelling, they reached a small, dingy alleyway, hidden and unimportant to most people.
"In here", said the Kold warrior, pointing to an old looking wooden door. Zarbon roughly pushed the warrior aside, and he immediately charged up a blast, throwing it at the door. It was only big enough to break down the door, so as there was no risk of destroying the Dragon balls. The Kold Warriors followed Zarbon in the door; or more so, what was left of it; and they started travelling down a dark corridor, until they finally reached a door. Zarbon broke it down, and noticed the room on the other side of it was empty, besides a table covered with a few empty bottles and cigarette packets, plus a deck of cards.
"You idiot! There's nothing here", Dodoria mumbled, smacking the youth up the back of the head.
"That's what they want us to think. They are here; can't you feel it", whispered Zarbon, in a purely maniacal voice. And, unluckily for the Saiyan Viper gang, he was right. They where right in the core of the Saiyan Viper Gangs headquarters. The Saiyans where about to be under attack from a whole army of Kolds; and the odds where definitely stacked against them.
Vegeta smirked as the 'woman' struggled under his hard grip, her arms flailing and her legs kicking around.
