Title: Crimson-dipped Obsession
Summary: Bulma Briefs' life made a horrifying turn when an obsessed Saiyan prince arrived on Earth and wanted her to be his! What's more to this alien was a dark secret that has caused a change in the history of Dragon Ball Z, and if it is revealed, it holds the fate of the entire universe.
Genre: Horror, Psychological Thriller, Romance, Mystery
Disclaimer: I do not own Dragon Ball Z. Some events in this fan fic is also inspired by Mirai Nikki and DBXV.
Warning: You might find Vegeta out of character in this story as this fic is made as an answer to the question 'What if Vegeta was a yandere?'. Vegeta is originally and generally a tsundere. A Tsundere is a character who is initially cold and even hostile towards another person before gradually showing a warm and caring side over time. The yandere personality is the exact opposite of a tsundere personality. A Yandere is a character who is genuinely kind, loving, sweet or gentle, but can suddenly switch to being aggressive or deranged. (From wiktionary).
If you don't like Vegeta to be like a yandere then I suggest you to turn back now and stop reading as this story also contains lots of blood, gore and violence.
Author's Notes: Now, I bring to you the twenty-ninth chapter of Crimson-dipped Obsession and the end of the Androids Arc. Please Read and Review!
Chapter 29: Infiltration
[Age 763, September 15, 10:47, North City Capital]
"AAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!"
Terrified screams rang loudly all throughout the North City as chaos ripped the once peaceful city into a town filled with terror, blood and gore. A flaming haired Saiyan stood at the middle of it all, mercilessly slaughtering and butchering each and every resident using the double axe in his hand. Blood sprayed into his cruel face and he ran his tongue across his lips in satisfaction as he peered at the bloody corpses of his victims with sadistic glee.
"Vegeta, head for the Northern Mountains on the North part of the City. That's where Doctor Gero's laboratory should be. You will meet me in there." Bulma's voice could be heard from the earpiece set on the Saiyan Prince's goggles as he continued to massacre the populace in the town. There was a pair of goggles over his eyes with red lenses. The goggles worked like a scouter, detecting both ki power and electromagnetic energy signals. This type of technology would allow Vegeta to know the location of the Androids directly. The Androids have no particular ki, meaning none of them could ever sense the presence of an Android coming or attacking. The energy they use on creating attacks is most likely dense photons and highly concentrated electromagnetic energy. And because of this fact, Bulma created this technology similar to that of a scouter, with the help of Vegeta's extensive knowledge as well.
"Okay! I understand!" Vegeta told her as he threw the axe into the ground and pulled out sharp katana. "I love you, my dear little Bulma!"
"Yeah, I love you, too!"
Using his superhuman speed, he darted towards the Northern part of the city that would lead him to the mountains, slaughtering all humans that get in his way. It doesn't matter if he killed the humans, he and Bulma are going to wish everything back to normal with the Dragon Balls he spoke of.
The moment he could see the group of the tall Northern Mountains, he leaped up into the sky, his feet and his energy causing the ground he previously stood in to crack open on its surface. As soon as the Saiyan prince was several feet off the ground, he quickly spun around, stretched out his right arm with his palm facing the now unpopulated island and charged up the Big Bang Attack. The very moment his destructive technique made contact on the city after he released it, the island was reduced to nothingness, leaving only a tall mushroom cloud from where the North City once stood. Vegeta continued his way to the mountains, laughing maniacally as he did.
He set down on the lowest point of the mountain and he sprinted on the mountain road, slaughtering several more civilians he passed by on his way. As he continued to cause chaos and slaughter, he remembered the plan he and Bulma made in order to infiltrate Doctor Gero's laboratory successfully.
[Age 763, September 14, Vegeta's Capsule House in the Paradiser's Island]
"Doctor Gero's laboratory must be somewhere within the Northern Mountains," Bulma informed Vegeta, showing him a rather perfectly drawn map Vegeta made of the Earth. She pointed at the drawing of mountain ranges in the top right corner of the map. "We are going to infiltrate his bases and you will destroy them all after we saved papa and mama."
"I understand," Vegeta told her.
Bulma showed him the remote control Vegeta gave her and she has fixed it now. "I will bring this in cases of emergency. But I doubt you'll lose to them," Bulma smiled.
"Hmph!" Vegeta snorted.
She handed him the goggles with red lenses, "Here, take this." Vegeta took the goggles in his hand, frowning as he looked at it. "I specifically made that to work like a scouter. Complete with ki detectors and communication devices."
"I have no need for such a thing." The prince complained.
"I know, but what's better in this thing is that it can also detect high electromagnetic signals. You cannot sense the Androids, right? This might help you locate them in no time." She told him. Vegeta tired the said goggles on, putting it over his eyes and turning on the detectors. The display showed him arrows pointing towards the North. How amazing that this thing could detect the Androids location even at this distance. "You said that the Androids must be using highly concentrated photons and electromagnetic energy in order to create energy attacks like you do. So using that information I created that gadget for you."
Vegeta pulled the goggles off his head, "Hn, pretty useful my dear."
"I have the same thing with me," Bulma showed him another pair of goggles just like his, only pink in color.
"I will go first so I may give warning to the enemies of our coming by destroying the North City. You, on the other hand will meet me on Gero's laboratory. Call me when you're closer." Vegeta told her.
"Okay. I understand."
[Age 763, September 15, Northern Mountains]
"Detecting three electromagnetic signals at twenty meters ahead…"
The monotone voice of the computer within the goggles over Vegeta'seyes announced, showing him yellow arrows directing to three shadowed figures a few meters ahead on the lenses of the goggles over his eyes. The Saiyan let out a grin as he sped faster towards his target. As soon as he reached his destination, he stopped and gawked up at the highly secured base within the depths of the mountains. Two towering metallic doors are before him, with a small biometric computer on the side. "So, this is Doctor Gero's laboratory. What a cramped place to live and hide in." he thought.
Vegeta turned around, pulling his goggles on top of his head when he sensed Bulma behind him. She just arrived and she approached him with her cold and calculating eyes. The prince smirked at her appearance; she's just so beautiful, most especially today. She wore a black dress, with pink and gold armored protection on her torso made from the same materials as Vegeta's armor, black, fingerless gloves on her hands and knee high black military boots on her feet. On her black belt around her slim waist were her new and improved pink laser gun and several dino-capsules containing other types of weaponry. On the top of her head were the same goggles Vegeta had, her blue hair tied into a neat ponytail. She looks devilishly sexy on those clothes, looking like a gothic Lolita doll.
Once she was on his side, they held each other's hand and kissed each other on the lips passionately. The moment they pulled away from each other, gasping for their breaths as they both chuckle. Vegeta said, "Let's do this together." as he held her hand tighter.
Bulma let out a smirk, one that looked as evil as Vegeta always does, "Of course." She said, also tightening her hand on his.
Together they faced the metallic door before them. The Prince of Saiyans raised his free right hand, charging up a blue ki sphere over his palm. He then pulled back his arm before he threw the 'Photon Bomber' towards the entrance, which immediately exploded on impact and getting rid of the stupid door on their way. Abruptly, fire alarms echoed loudly in the entire laboratory. As the smoke caused by the explosion cleared, Vegeta and Bulma walked in, and found Androids 17 and 18 waiting for them. Not far away in the corner were Doctor and Mrs. Briefs, restrained on a chair together. And the sight of them made Bulma pale with horror and disbelief.
Her parents' bodies were ripped open from the inside out; their entrails creating a disgusting mess on the floor below the chairs they sat.
"Mama! Papa! NO!" she cried out in grief and horror.
The Androids watched at her misery with cold eyes, "That's what happens when you didn't do your part of the deal, Bulma-san. We told you to kill Vegeta for us and bring us his head today, but after seeing the both of you outside via CCTV, we did not regret that we killed them before the two of you arrive," Lapiz said.
Anger, grief and sadness filled Bulma's eyes as she glared at the abominations who has killed everyone she loves. After seeing her parents dead before her eyes, she wanted to rip those monsters to pieces if only she could do it on her own.
Vegeta snorted at that, "Heh! Making a powerless little girl kill me won't work, fools! What are you? Are you cowardly little children afraid to face me after seeing how I easily destroyed your friends?"
"He sure talk a lot, isn't he? How annoying," Lazuli said.
"Enough of your boasts, Vegeta! Your girl didn't do well with our deal so now she paid the price!" Lapiz yelled.
"But don't worry, the both of you will meet them soon enough." Lazuli grinned.
Bulma gritted her teeth, her glare could have burn a hole on the Androids if she could only release laser beams from her eyes. Out of pure rage, she picked her pink laser gun and pointed it towards the Androids, shaking in rage. On her side, Vegeta just watched at her be filled with rage, and honestly, it made his heart pound with excitement.
"What? You seriously think you can defeat us with that little toy?" mocked Lapiz, shrugging his shoulders off.
Angry tears fell from Bulma's eyes as she roared in fury, "AAAAAAAAAARRGGGHHHHH!" as she pulled the trigger. The Androids simply leaped away separately from the blast's trajectory. Bulma continued her furious glare at the Androids as she fired her laser gun towards them, in an attempt to destroy their circuits with it. "Damn you, machines! I will fucking destroy you to useless pieces of junk!" she seethed.
Vegeta smirked at those words, not that he doubted her ability to destroy these mechanical dolls. But because of what was happening, she was about to lose all her remaining sanity and will soon become like him. At times like this, he preferred watching her do his usual thing for him. Let her destroy those machines so she could be satisfied. If she could not do it, then he will destroy them for her. But so long as she doesn't tell him to do so, he would simply watch at her become a killing machine, just like him.
When Vegeta found out that Android 17 Lapiz was about to retaliate, he exploded in his Super Saiyan form and phased in before the dark haired boy and pushed him into the nearby wall, making the cyborg's attempt to kill his Bulma useless. With a loud, animalistic snarl, Vegeta grabbed 17's dark hair and mercilessly ripped his head off his shoulders, and causing the Android to explode to pieces of metal scraps.
Only Android 18, Lazuli remained.
Bulma, after seeing Vegeta destroy Android 17 was snapped out of her rage and she panted heavily as she watched at Vegeta toss the cyborg's head away into a far wall. Android 18 could only watch in terror as the only thing that remained of her brother was incinerated to pieces by an energy blast from Vegeta.
"Lapiz! No!" she cried.
She already knew it from the start that Vegeta was strong, but they did not expect him to be this powerful. He was able to destroy each and every one of them in an instant. According to Doctor Gero, with their infinite stamina from being made from mechanical parts and having superhuman abilities, they are supposedly much more powerful than these Saiyans. Heck, they were created to kill and destroy Goku, who is also a Saiyan just like Vegeta. She cannot understand just how one being be able to have this much power?
She remembered 16's words that night, "We cannot know the extent of Vegeta's true power as my sensors identify a very extraordinary ki within him being highly suppressed."
Where did Vegeta get this almost bottomless power? And what does he mean by that extraordinary ki within the prince?
At this rate, she knew she doesn't have a chance alone.
Vegeta appeared before the terrified blonde haired Android in his glorious Super Saiyan form. "Finally you are the last remaining Android, except for that bird brained creator of yours. Don't expect me to go easy on you simply because you are a woman." He said with a smug smirk on his face."But you are an Android, so basically, you are not a woman." He laughed.
Lazuli stepped back away from the Saiyan Prince, her pale blue eyes glaring at him with contempt, "I will not let you destroy me as easily as the others, Vegeta! If you do so, I will bring you and your girl along with me in hell!"
Vegeta threw his head back to laugh at her words, "Ahahahahahahahaha! So you must know a few tricks on your own. What is it? Your self destruct sequence? Go on, you are free to activate it as much as you want, at least by the end of this battle you are nothing but pieces of scrap metal."
Lazuli gritted her teeth.
"Answer me one question, where is your creator?" the prince asked, moving forward and causing Lazuli to back away once more.
"Doctor Gero's somewhere creating another Android, one that would be capable of destroying you completely, Vegeta!"
"Oh really? Another mechanical doll much powerful than you pests? That's interesting." Vegeta responded, though his expression showed nothing but false interest.
"Y-Yes!" Android 18 squeaked just as her back hit the wall. Vegeta smiled at her.
"Well, what do you know? You have reached the dead end." He told her.
With a desperate grunt, Android 18 activated her self destruct sequence, "I will not let you destroy me!" she cried out as she activated her self-destruct sequence. Her operating system began its countdown to destruction.
"Initiating self-destruct sequence… Ten… Nine…"
Vegeta knew what just happened and he turned around and shouted, "Bulma! Run!"
Bulma also knows what was about to happen. Android 18 just initiated her self destruct sequence, and Vegeta was there, pushing the Android's slender body on the far wall as possible away from her. As the countdown continued she couldn't understand why he was still grabbing the cyborg and not just leave her in there and run away.
"Vegeta! W-what are you doing in there? Get away from her!" Bulma cried out as the prince locked Android 18's body around his grip. He was trying to lessen the impact of the explosion by covering the source of the blow with his body. If he let her go and run away, Lazuli might go after them and have Bulma in great danger. He cannot risk that as well.
"Eight… Seven…"
Vegeta blasted the wall, and pushed Lazuli out of the laboratory, the two of them rolling into the ground. His hands grabbed at her neck as she struggled.
"Vegeta!" Bulma cried out.
"Idiot, you should be the one who must run for your life! Hurry!" he ordered her.
"Six… Five…"
"B-But…"
Vegeta turned his head to her, with a satisfied smile on his face. "Don't worry about me! I told you I will continue to chase you even if I die. Hehe…" tears streamed slowly from the corner of his eyes.
"Four… Three…"
"N…No…"Bulma watched at him, tears fell from her eyes as she watched helplessly as Android 18's countdown came to an end.
"Two… One…"
Bulma cried out, "Vegeta! I still want to watch the stars with you!"
KABOOOM!
Lazuli's body exploded in a bright light, shaking the Northern Mountains with its impact. Bulma's cry echoed along the loud explosion as she couldn't see what has happened to Vegeta in that light.
A powerful explosion shook the Northern Mountains causing the Super Computer within Doctor Gero's hide out to release a warning signal. Android 20 sat on a chair before the monitor of his super computer in fury. His data informed him that Androids 17 and 18 have been destroyed now and only he and his new creation, still under his development remained.
Desperately, he moved from his seat towards the incubator tank where a fetus like creature was floating within a clear green liquid substance. Several tubes were attached to the thing as Doctor Gero began to type several codes from another computer attached to the incubator in an attempt to complete this new creation of his. This thing will be the best of all his creations, the most perfect of them all. Even the extremely powerful Prince Vegeta will never be a match to its superior strength and powers!
The mad scientist let out a psychotic laughter at the thought of this creation of his, dominating the Saiyan Prince and the entire universe.
Meanwhile, outside the doctor's secret hideout… Bulma froze in terror as her blue eyes searched for any sign of Vegeta within the smoke and dust left by Android 18's destruction. As soon as it was finally clear, Vegeta's body lay on the floor before several parts of the once Android 18, completely unmoving. The sight of him dead made Bulma dash towards him, crying out his name. "Vegeta!" as she stumbled towards him in grief. She knelt next to him and shook him desperately, hoping he was alive. "Vegeta! Wake up! Please wake up! Don't leave me here all alone! Waaaaah!" Bulma cried out. When he didn't budge at all, she wailed on his chest, completely in grief and sadness as she cried out his name over and over again.
Lub-dub… Lub-dub… Lub-dub…
She heard a loud, powerful but fast beating on his chest so clear she was sure he was alive. She quickly pulled away from him, and looked at him with extreme worry etched on her face. "Vegeta!" she breathed in but when she saw the look on his face, a red flush and a somehow pleasurable look even if his eyes were closed, and made a comment,
"Ah… Just as I have thought. You would cry for me if I die. You really do love me, don't you, my dear little Bulma?" Vegeta popped one eye open, a mischievous grin on his lips.
Out of anger, she pulled a fist and punched his face as hard as she could. "Vegeta! You jerk! How dare you act stupidly at this kind of situation, huh?"
The Saiyan Prince grunted, acting out as if her punch pained him. "Aaawwwcchh!" he moaned as he rubbed the part where Bulma hit him playfully. "That was a cheap shot, woman." He complained as he pulled himself up, laughing at her. "Did you honestly think that I would die that easily, huh? Have you forgotten that I am the great Prince of all Saiyans, Vegeta-sama! I will not die that easily, foolish woman." Then he pulled out his tongue on her. Bulma glared back at him and pouted back.
"How could I forget that? You always remind me," She answered with a scowl on her beautiful face.
Vegeta gazed at her, with a wide grin on his face. "Neh, my Bulma… Are you mad at me?"
"Of course I am! You made me so worried about you, you big dummy!"
"Hmmmmph!" Vegeta pouted. "It was you who has lack of faith in me, silly woman."
"How infuriating you are, Prince Vegeta, for you to be able to destroy all of my creations." Abruptly, they heard Doctor Gero's voice boomed from some speakers above them. The two of them looked up to the speakers and into a CCTV camera above them. Vegeta stood up, letting out a wide smirk as he grabbed Bulma's hand to help her stand up.
"Heh! What do you expect from me, fool? All of those models are completely outdated and just pieces of useless junk. Just as you are." The Saiyan prince snorted. "Tell me, are you hiding somewhere from me because you are terrified that you'll end up the same as your stupid creations?"
"For your information, arrogant fool, I am currently creating the very thing that would kill you!" Gero shouted.
With that, Vegeta's expression turned excited and somewhat evil, "Ooh! That's wonderful! Why don't you bring him to me immediately? I would like to meet him." He smiled.
Gero only responded with a grunt.
At that reaction from his enemy, the prince's smile melted into a deep scowl, "Any problems with that?" he demanded.
"Hehehe…" Gero laughed, "Okay, fine. You will meet him soon enough if you can find where I am now."
"What? Is this a game of hide and seek?" Vegeta asked rather amused.
"Probably," Gero claimed.
Vegeta's grin widened at the thought of a game, "I'd love that!" he exclaimed, "Just you wait, Gero. I'm coming to destroy you! You cannot hide from me." He pulled down the pair of goggles over his eyes and pressed the button on the side of the frame. He scowled when the scan of the place didn't show any signs of electromagnetic energy within the place.
"He's not in here," Bulma told her. She has put her pink goggles over her eyes as well. Vegeta looked up into the ceiling, scowling deeply.
"Hn… Which makes it more interesting," Vegeta smiled as she pulled his goggles over his head once again. He took Bulma's left hand on his right hand, twining his fingers with hers. "Let's go, Bulma."
The blue haired girl smirked back and nodded, "Okay!"
Inside Doctor Gero's hideout, the mad scientist looked at the CCTV videos his computer was showing him, Vegeta and Bulma already made their move to find him. He didn't know what those goggles are but it won't help them win this game.
His hideout was hidden deep within the mountains, at the very core of the tallest formation. He made sure that the place wasn't that easy to be seen by anyone. The place was protected by a barrier that would absorb all kinds of energy attacks, and would send the absorbed energy to the hideout's powers source. Also, it is equipped with maximum security locks only he can unlock via retina scan. This is one perfect hideout for him, equipped with all the things he needed to develop his bio-Android, and with computers and CCTV cameras for his laboratory outside this place to guard.
Doctor Gero could only just sit and watch as the Saiyan try his best to find this place. He was confident that Vegeta will never find him, even with that gizmo of his.
So he was terrified when he found that Vegeta blasting the side of the laboratory wall, and continued to fire his blasts one after another, shaking the mountains with its intense power.
What's the meaning of this? How did he know that his hideout's deep within?
Vegeta and Bulma stood before the huge metallic door of Doctor Gero's hideout, holding each other's hands. It was dark within their surroundings. It was because the place was within the depths of the mountain, as if they were inside a deep cave that has no exit but the laboratory several feet away from them now.
Vegeta, raised his right hand, his palm facing the door. He charged his ki power, his energy coalescing into a blazing yellow sphere. He fired the sphere of powerful ki into the door, and when the smoke caused by the explosion was cleared, "It's… It's unscathed!" Bulma mouthed in surprise.
"Hmph!" Vegeta snorted as he fired a barrage of yellow blasts towards the door, and continued to fire at it over and over again. But the door remained intact, the invisible barrier absorbing the power of all of Vegeta's ki spheres and storing it to the base's power supply.
It was Gero's mad laughter that made Vegeta stop his assaults, making the prince scowl deeply at the fact that he was not able to destroy the damn door.
"Bwahahahahahahahaha! Foolish monkey! No matter how powerful you are, you will never be able to get inside this place! You may have found where I am hiding, but so long as you don't see me you will not be able to destroy me nor my new creation! This place has been protected by a powerful barrier that would only absorb your blasts! Only I can open the entrance! The security lock's can only be opened by my retina alone! Face it, Vegeta. You will never win!"
"What?!" Vegeta scowled, his green eyes narrowing in anger. Finally realizing his mistake, he put his hand down, stopping his struggle with attempting to blow the shit up. He closed his eyes and let out a sigh, his hair fading from blonde back to its normal jet black color.
"Hey Vegeta, what are you going to do? Why did you return to your normal form?" Bulma asked, confused.
Vegeta opened his slanted and narrowed black eyes, "It doesn't matter, Bulma." He answered.
"Eh?"
He turned to her and smiled, "I cannot open this door using my ki alone." He said as he put his hands on his pocket, picking up a small capsule box within. He opened the box and scowled, "Uhm… Can I have a favor?" he asked
"What was it?" Bulma asked.
"I forgot my weapons outside. Would you mind to get me one fire axe?"
Bulma may have dino-capsules in her belt, but all of it contained guns, bullets and laser guns, no such things like axes and swords. "What for? You think you can open up that door using that?"
Vegeta let out a sheepish grin, "I'll never know if I don't try."
Bulma shrugged her shoulders off and just gave up, "Alright. I'll be back soon." She said as she kissed him.
"Hn, be careful, my dear little Bulma." Vegeta told her. She let go of his hand and he watched at her disappear into the darkness back into the laboratory.
When Vegeta sensed Bulma far enough, he turned around to glare at the retina scanner on the side of the door with a scowl and his cold, calculating eyes. His eyes narrowed into it as he approached the machine. He took one dino-capsule from his box and let out a wide evil smirk.
Doctor Gero was confident that he was safe from Vegeta now. After all, what could a mere Saiyan like him do against his great inventions! So when he saw the prince power down to his normal form, he thought Vegeta was giving up. He even laughed at the conversation he had with Bulma about asking his girlfriend to get him a fire axe. What foolish monkey! Not even with Vegeta's superior strength combined with the axe's blade would get him anywhere. He shook his head and just decided to leave it be. Vegeta was an impatient man; he would leave immediately after he realized his own foolishness. After all, he has a more important thing to be busy about.
That is the completion of Cell.
That was his biggest mistake though.
As Doctor Gero typed with incredible speed at the keyboard of the supercomputer connected to Cell's incubator, an announcement from the other computer connected to the door made him stop.
"Retina scan completed. Identity confirmed." And then he heard the huge metallic doors behind him open up with a whoosing sound.
What? Why is the door opening?
A chilling evil chuckle made Doctor Gero terrified. He slowly turned around to see the Prince of all Saiyans standing behind him.
"Found you, doctor!" Vegeta grinned.
"What? Why are you here? How did you open the door?" Gero asked in terror and disbelief, his pale blue eyes wide.
The Saiyan's grin widened at the question. He raised his hand to show Gero something that made the mad scientist confused and terrified.
Android 20's head was on Vegeta's right hand, the Saiyan's fingers grabbing the head by the long white hair behind his lower scalp, completely missing the body. The pale blue eyes were lifeless. The blue glass that was on his cranium was cracked open and empty.
Doctor Gero knew it was his head for some reason. Where did he get that?
"Looks like I have won!" Vegeta announced as he pulled down his right hand and raised his left hand, pointing his finger at the scientist. "Now pay for the consequence!"
The confused doctor exploded to pieces of mechanical parts at Vegeta's command.
When Bulma returned with a fire axe in her hand, she was confused to find the door finally opened and Doctor Gero's destroyed parts lying on the floor beneath Vegeta's feet. For some reason, she could see parts of Doctor Gero's head and another one that is fully intact. Were there two heads in there? That was weird.
"Vegeta! How did you open the door?" she asked, confused.
Vegeta turned to her and smiled, "I'm a freaking genius, Bulma! I found it out!"
"Eh?"
They looked within the small laboratory, and Bulma was awed by the amazing technology the place has. She went to tinker at anything that she find interesting but when she saw the incubator where the green fetus lies, she asked, "What's this?"
Vegeta walked before the incubator as he looked at the disgusting thing within it, "That's probably the thing Gero's bragging about," he answered.
"Will this thing really be able to beat you?" Bulma wondered, doubting such information.
"Hmph! Beats me. But I'm not interested anymore with it. I will destroy this abomination this instant!" Vegeta announced as he raised his hand and fired a blast towards the incubator. The glass cracked on the surface, leaking the green liquid substance from it. He fired another, much powerful blast towards the fetus, completely incinerating it to smithereens. Then he grabbed Bulma on her waist. His girlfriend immediately wrapped her arms around his neck, knowing that he will completely destroy the laboratory now. He fired another blast towards the two super computers, which exploded on impact. The ensuing explosion that followed was huge, completely destroying the entire Northern Mountains and creating a barren wasteland. Vegeta ascended from the fire, with Bulma behind him. Both of them were surrounded by a blue barrier that protected the both of them from the fire. Together they watched the destruction the prince caused with sadistic delight, relieved that it was finally over.
But Bulma abruptly remembered her parents' corpses within that explosion, her expression quickly changed to grief and sadness. Vegeta saw this and reassured her that they will find the new set of Dragon Balls to bring her parents and friends back to life.
Bulma still couldn't believe that there were another set of Dragon Balls.
"Where are we going to find them?" she asked him.
Vegeta grinned back at her, "Towa knows where," he replied.
"Towa? That lady who brought Piccolo back on Planet Namek?" Bulma remembered the blue skinned white haired lady back on Planet Namek.
"Yes," Vegeta told her.
Bulma smiled back. "Then let's come to her immediately!"
The prince looked away, "Uhm… She's not in here as of now. We'll have to wait for at least a month or so."
"Why? Can't you call her?" asked Bulma.
"Uh... No, I can't. I do not know how to contact her. I'm sorry." Vegeta muttered in apology.
Disappointed, she looked down, "Oh… I see."
"Shall we go back home?" Vegeta asked.
"Okay, let's go."
Vegeta blasted off into the sky back to West City Capital.
Author's Notes: Next Update will be the beginning of the Revelation of the Truth Arc. The long awaited revelation on Vegeta's true identity will be in here soon so you better watch out!
Next Chapter Preview:
Irami: "I just came from the forensic lab to pick this up."
Vegeta: "Forensics lab?"
Irami: "Yeah, here. Take a look at this."
Bulma: "What is this?"
Irami: "According to that letter from the forensics lab, the DNA from the bones we found on Pepper Island has exactly the same DNA as Vegeta-san's. Which means that the owner of those bones could also be Vegeta-san, if that was the case… then who is that Vegeta-san beside you?"
Vegeta: "How could this be? I… I didn't expect for someone to be this… this interested and persistent with it…"
Irami: "Bulma-san! Please! Please don't believe him, Bulma-san! He's lying to you! All this time!"
Irami: "Then why won't you release your true power and do as you say?"
Vegeta: "If I release my true power, this entire universe will be destroyed!
Vegeta: Do you even believe that I really am from the future? Ahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! Maybe you would want to ask this obvious question, if I killed my past self then who am I?
Vegeta: Heh! The universe shall tremble in fear of my true power.
[Chapter 30: The Impostor]
