Chapter 5:
They were shaken out their almost kiss when the bell for lunch rang. They both stopped and opened their eyes. They stared at each other, their lips only millimetres apart. Students suddenly started rushing out of the buildings and Bulma and Vegeta jumped away from each other. Yamcha let out a sigh of relief. He was only a few feet away and was about to interrupt. Yamcha glared at the flame-haired guy and walked in the direction of the cafeteria. Bulma fell flat on her ass because her heel was still caught and Vegeta could not help the laugh that erupted from his lips. Bulma glared at him, but when she saw how much fun he was having, she laughed with him. When she sobered she quickly got her heel unstuck and was about to stand when she saw a hand in front of her face.
"Come on Woman, stop staring at my hand and let's go. I'm hungry." Vegeta stated. Bulma grabbed his hand. When she was on her feet, again they headed for the cafeteria. This time they did not walk in silence, they just talked about simple things such as what planets they have been to, what their favourite places were and which planets they still wanted to visit.
When they reached the cafeteria, they saw the gang at one of the biggest tables there and headed in their direction. Halfway there Vegeta said that he was going to get himself some lunch and that he will meet her at the table. Bulma nodded at him and kept walking. She was nearly at her table when Yamcha moved to stand in her way.
"Hey Beautiful. Want to join me for lunch? It's my treat." He said smiling charmingly at her. Bulma smiled at him and slowly shook her head 'no' before saying;
"Sorry Yamcha, but I promised my friends I would eat with them today. Maybe some other day. And anyway, I think your fan girls will kill me if I took you away from them." Bulma started to move past him when he grabbed her wrist.
"Are you one of my fan girls Beautiful?" Yamcha waited with baited breath for her answer.
"Sorry Yamcha, but I only belong to one club and they're sitting over there. So if you'll excuse me, I have to get back to them." She pulled her wrist out of his hand with little effort and went over to her friends. When she got there, she saw Vegeta was already there with four trays of food in front of him. Bulma looked over at Goku and giggled when she saw he was inhaling his sixth tray. Bulma sat down next to Vegeta and grabbed a piece of pizza off one of his trays. He gave her a dirty look, but kept eating. Even if Vegeta ate just as much as Goku, he had better manners. He actually ate with a knife and fork.
"So B, what did Yamcha want?" Chi Chi asked turning her eyes away from her boyfriend's disgusting eating habits.
"He asked me to eat lunch with him." Bulma took another bit of the pizza. When Vegeta heard this, he nearly chocked. He hid it well, because he did not want the others to see his reaction.
"And I presume you said no, because you're here with us." Juu stated very happy with the turn of events. She had a major dislike in Yamcha. He had flirted with her when she walked into the cafeteria and when she told him to "fuck off" he smiled and said "Not yet baby, we only just met." Then he walked off with his fan club. She hated when someone put words in her mouth and she hated it even more when someone flirted with her when they knew she had a boyfriend.
"Yeah, I told him maybe some other day." Bulma said finishing off the pizza and stood to go get in the lunch line. Juu and Chi looked at each other with worried eyes.
"I'll be right back guys. I'm in need of a cheeseburger." She walked away from the table. When she was in the line, both girls turned to Vegeta.
"So Vegeta, how do you like it here so far?" Juu asked.
"It's fine. The Woman told me you're part of a club?" Vegeta wanted to know more about the club. He was tempted to join it, even if only to be around Bulma outside of school.
"Yeah we started it when were in elementary school. We were all in the same karate class and we hit it off immediately. Goku and I started dating about 2 years after that and about a year later Juu and Krillen started going out." Chi Chi said putting her hand on Goku's leg. Goku smiled at her and winked.
"I didn't want to know about your love life." Vegeta rolled his eyes, finished his fourth tray and pushed it to the side. He leant back in his chair and entwined his fingers behind his head.
"Well you don't have to be rude about it you jerk!" Chi Chi's temper flared.
"Calm down harpy. Your shouts are going to wake the dead." Vegeta smirked when he saw her face become bright red. She was about to respond when Bulma sat down next to Vegeta.
"Veggie Head, stop being mean. She can't take your rude jokes like I can." Bulma said before taking a bit of her huge cheeseburger.
"Don't defend him Bulma. He has to apologize to me for calling me a harpy!" Chi Chi screamed at Vegeta again.
"I called you a harpy, because you keep yelling. Maybe I should call you a banshee, they scream like that and you're just as ugly as one too. And Woman, stop calling me that!" Vegeta could swear there was steam coming out of Chi Chi's ears and he started laughing his ass off.
"TAKE THAT BACK YOU OVER GROWN MONKEY!" Chi Chi was in full bitch mode now and Goku flinched at her shrill voice.
"Honey, calm down. If you keep screaming, you're giving Vegeta a reason to call you that. And you're hurting my ears. He's baiting you to get a reaction and you're giving him one." Goku took a big drink of his soda to wash down the last of his food and looked calmly at his anger-crazed girlfriend.
"It seems you have somewhat of a brain Kakarot." Vegeta just kept smirking and watched as Chi Chi's face turned back to normal. Bulma, Juu and Krillen were trying not to laugh aloud at Chi Chi, because they feared she would get mad again. Bulma finished her burger and was about to grab her cherry cola when she saw it was missing. She looked at Vegeta and saw him grinning at her while taking a big drink. She felt herself getting angry.
"Calm down Woman. You took some of my food, now I'm just doing the same to you." Vegeta just kept drinking until the bottle was half.
"That was a really bad idea Vegeta. No one ever dares to take Bulma's cherry cola, she goes insane." Krillen whispered to Vegeta. Vegeta's grin became wider when he heard this and he waited for her to explode.
"YOU IDIOTIC MORON! NO ONE TAKES MY CHERRY COLA! EVER! NOW GIVE IT BACK BEFORE I RIP YOUR ARM OFF AND START BEATING YOU TO DEATH WITH IT." Bulma yelled. She was now standing, her fists balled at her sides. The rest of the cafeteria was in utter silence and then Vegeta started laughing, hard. He almost fell off his chair, that's how hard he laughed. Bulma was turning red in the face.
"WHAT THE FUCK IS SO FUNNY MORON?" She was beyond pissed off now.
"Woman if you could see your face right now you would laugh too." Vegeta was still laughing but had calmed down substantially. The whole group looked at Bulma's face and burst out with laughter. Her face was bright red and there was a vein popping out of her forehead. She looked ready to commit murder, but the face was majorly funny as well. Bulma looked at herself in the window behind Krillen's head and started laughing along with the others. Vegeta was only smirking now with his arms crossed over his chest. Goku was starting to calm down along with Chi Chi, but Juu and Krillen were still trying to breathe through their giggle fits.
"Well I guess I did look funny, but don't ever take my cherry cola again Veggie. Next time I might just hurt you." She winked at him and Vegeta was flabbergasted. He blushes softly and turned his head away.
"I will do whatever I please Woman, and you will not be able to stop Me." he huffed and Bulma giggled at his reaction. She sat back down and spoke with her group about their plans for the weekend. They were all going to a nightclub on Friday night called Night Crawlers. Then the next day they were planning to have a pool party at Bulma's house and just spend the day together. The girls were then gonna sleep over at Bulma's and Krillen was going to Goku's house. Vegeta sat in silence listening to their conversation.
"Hey Veggie, want to join us this weekend? It's gonna be a lot of fun." Bulma asked, secretly hoping he would say yes, but she knew it was not going to be easy.
"I don't have time for that Woman. I have more important things to do that watch you idiots get drunk and make fools of yourselves." Vegeta shook his head and just leaned back in his chair.
"Oh come on Vegeta. Then just come along Friday." Chi Chi helped trying to convince him.
"Yeah. We need some more guy power." Krillen said.
"Why would you need that Cue Ball? Does your woman wear the pants in your relationship?" Vegeta chuckled when Krillen blushed and Juu glared.
"Stop changing the subject Vegeta. Please come with us. I promise if you're not having fun, you can go home." Bulma looked at him with puppy dog eyes, knowing very few guys, if any, could resist that look from her. Vegeta felt the sudden urge to give in. Somewhere deep inside, he really wanted to go, but he would never admit it aloud.
"I will see how I feel on Friday. But if I don't want to go, then I will not go, got it?" he said in a serious voice.
"Awesome! Now we're an even number. And before you ask Veggie, Piccolo never goes with, because he always goes home on weekends." Bulma smiled brightly at the frowning boy next to her. She knew he would be saying yes on Friday.
The bell rang and the gang got up and walked out the door. They went their separate ways in the hall. Bulma and Vegeta headed for biology and there was silence again. When they got to their class, they quickly grabbed their seats and waited for the teacher. Bulma stared out the window and Vegeta doodled on his notebook again. When the class started, they were both very happy about it.
The rest of the day went off without a hitch and it was time for their last class now. Bulma and Vegeta walked to the gym building again. They got dressed in their fighting clothes and this time headed for the weapons room. It was about the same size as the other gym, but the walls were covered in any kind of fighting weapon you could think of. From katanas to broad swords, Ninja stars and Nun chucks. Everything was there, even fighting fans. Bulma smiled and walked over to the katanas. She looked them over slowly, inspecting their quality.
"Well Miss Briefs I see you are already looking for your weapon." Said a voice suddenly behind her. Bulma smiled and turned to their master.
"It is good to see you again master Korin. How have you been?" she bowed before the cat like creature.
"I'm doing very well Bulma. It has been a long time since we last saw each other. If I remember correctly the last time I saw you, you had just turned 10." Master Korin smiled at his old student and saw that she had grown much over the last 8 years. This was his first year of giving class at BDH and he was looking forward to working with this particular class. Because this was a very special course, only seniors were allowed to take it. Master Korin looked around and he knew all the students in the class except the young man with the flame-like hair standing close to Bulma. The class only had six students and he liked it that way, because then each student would get to learn four weapons in total.
"Now guys, most of you I have trained with before." The master smiled at the others and turned to Vegeta, "But I have not me you before young man. I am master Korin, specialist in any weapon in the universe." The cat smiled at the frowning guy and waited for him to introduce himself.
"I am Vegeta Ouji. This is my first year here at BDH and I am also a Sayian." Vegeta said with his arms crossed, looking at the strange being before him.
"Ahh, so you are Vegeta. Very good to meet you my boy. I have heard a lot about you across the universe. I'm looking forward to working with you. Yajarobi?" Master Korin looked over at a fat man eating a piece of chocolate cake. Yajarobi finished his cake and ran over to his master.
"Yes sir?" he asked.
"Start taking out the target boards. We will be starting with throwing weapons today." The master turned away without waiting for an answer and Yajarobi walked away, grumbling.
"Okay, let me explain how this will work. Each of you can choose any four weapons, as long as they include a set of throwing weapons and any type of sword. Now go pick." He waited for them all to grab the weapons they wanted. Goku chose ninja stars, nun chucks, a broad sword and the extending Bo staff. Chi Chi went for the two fighting fans, a dagger, also ninja stars and a ninja sword. Juu and Krillen chose everything the same; a katana, fighting claws, the throwing axe and the sword-staff. Vegeta decided on throwing knives, a bow and arrows, two different sized katanas and nun chucks. Bulma also chose the throwing knives and bow and arrows, along with a metal tipped whip and a long blade katana, the weapon was a long as she was tall.
Master Korin smiled when he saw their choices.
"Very good. Now I see Yajarobi has finished putting up the targets. Get your throwing weapons and follow me." Everyone grabbed their sets of throwing weapons and hurried over to the targets. For half of the lesson their master showed them the right way to use their different weapons. Bulma and Vegeta were the only students to get consecutive bull's eyes and they were silent rivals. Goku was not paying attention and hit Yajarobi with one of his ninja stars. The master only laughed and said to Yajarobi if he wanted to be stupid enough to stand behind the targets, he deserved to get hurt. When there was 20 minutes left of the class the master called them all back to where the rest of their weapons had been left.
"Seeing that we made great progress today I want you all to pick your favourite of all your weapons and I will come around and give you pointers on how to work with them." The master nodded at them and the all took their chosen weapon. Goku took his staff, Chi Chi the fighting fans, Juu the fighting claws, Krillen the sword-staff, Vegeta his two katanas and Bulma her long blade katana.
They all stood so that they all had enough space to move without hurting each other. Master Korin started at Goku and slowly moved through the class, but while he was helping Goku, he saw that the boy was not even looking at him. Goku's eyes were locked on someone behind the master and he turned to see what had the boy transfixed. Then he saw Bulma working with her long blade. All her moves were precise and perfect. She had gotten a bucket of water, dipped her left hand in it, shot the droplets into the air and then cut them with her blade. It seemed as if her movement were causing a whirlwind around her and her dress and hair were whirling with it.
Vegeta was once again shocked to the core of his soul with her skill. She was deadly with that weapon, everyone could see it, but she was also amazingly beautiful as she moved with the long, heavy blade as if it was an extension of her limb. Vegeta tried to look away, but couldn't. She suddenly stopped and saw that everyone was staring.
"Well my dear, I see you have practiced." The old master smiled and waited for the others to react.
"You said you only had a few classes Woman. With that, it is clear that you lied to me." Vegeta did not like the idea of her lying to him and his tail tip started tapping against his hip again. When he was in his normal cloths it was under is shirt, but when he was fighting, he preferred to have it over his cloths, just in case his balance was somehow jeopardized.
"She did not lie my boy, she only had 20 classes in the use of a katana, but she is somewhat of a prodigy when it comes to weapons." The master said to stop Vegeta's anger at the blue haired beauty.
"A prodigy?" Chi Chi and Juu asked.
"Yes, within 20 lessons she had mastered 3 different types of katanas and she was only a child back then. She is a master in the normal blade, twin blades and different sized blades." He smiled when he saw Bulma blushing.
"That is so cool Bulma. Why did you never tell us?" Goku looked at his long time best friend.
"I don't feel like a master at any of those yet. I still make a lot of mistakes." Bulma looked at Vegeta hoping that he wasn't angry with her.
"You looked like a master and that was the first time you used that weapon, right?" Krillen asked and Bulma just nodded.
"Why do you have this class if you master any weapon just my touching it the first time Woman? I don't see the point in wasting your time." Vegeta was still a little shocked and his words came out very harsh.
"It's not that easy Vegeta. I only know how to use this because I have trained with katanas before." She scowled at Vegeta and crossed her arms over her chest.
"Whatever Woman." Vegeta went back to practicing with his katanas.
"I can see you have worked with them before Vegeta. Well done." The master nodded and watched Vegeta's stance.
"I have never worked with real katanas, but I can make katanas with my Ki." Vegeta put his weapons down and showed the master. He first formed a small blue Ki ball and then concentrated and shaped it into a glowing blue katana.
"I don't do this much, because it takes a lot of energy." He absorbed the Ki and picked up his weapons again. It was Bulma's turn to be speechless. Her eyes were wide and her mouth hung open in astonishment.
"Wow! That was so cool. Can you teach me how to do that?" Goku asked with a goofy grin on his face.
"We'll see Kakarot." Vegeta said without stopping. Bulma walked over to Vegeta and stood in front of him.
"Wanna spar with these weapons Veggie." She asked with a smug look on her face.
"Okay Woman, but don't cry when you lose." Vegeta smirked.
"That is a good idea. The rest of you, let's move out of their way." Master Korin smiled and went to sit on one of the benches against the wall near the door. The rest followed him as Bulma and Vegeta moved to stand across each other.
"Are you ready to lose Woman?" Vegeta asked both katanas in the sheaths at his hips. Bulma smiled evilly at him, her katana also at her hip.
"I still owe you for smacking my ass earlier. So you better prepare to have a few new wounds, along with a sore pride, because I will be winning this match." Bulma cocked her head and her smile became more evil, if that was even possible.
"That's where you're wrong Woman, I will win this." Vegeta said smugly while taking the longer katana out of its sheath.
"If you're so sure, hotshot, how about a little bet?" Bulma smiled at Vegeta and got her own weapon ready for battle.
"What do you have in mind Woman?" Vegeta cocked to his head to one side and waited for her answer.
"Well if I win, you have to spend this weekend with us. Friday and Saturday." Bulma praised herself on her own cleverness. Vegeta had a disgusted look on his face.
"And what do I get when I win?" Vegeta said looking at the Woman.
"Anything you want Veggie." Bulma just smiled sweetly at him.
"Anything?" Vegeta said with his smirk back on his face; this just got really good. She is going to regret that offer.
Bulma froze when she realized what she had said, but she could not back out now. She frowned at him and Vegeta started chuckling.
"Now let us get this fight started so I can claim my prize." Vegeta took his stance and watched her every move.
"Wait Vegeta, you did not say what you get if you win." Bulma tried to stop him.
"You will have to wait and see Woman." He smirked at her again and went in for the attack. Bulma quickly took her stance and defended his first blow with the long hilt of her katana.
His moves were fast and he had a lot more power than Bulma. She was having a hard time keeping up, but she never gave up. Bulma was mostly on defence. Vegeta saw she was tiring and decided to end the match. He jumped about 2 meters back, crouched down and charged. He swiped her feet from under her before her blade could defend her legs. Bulma looked up in shock as Vegeta had both his blades at her neck, while her blade was pressed to the ground with his left foot, he was being careful not to damage it. Vegeta smirked at his fallen opponent and stepped back.
"Well done both of you, but Bulma it seems we will have to work on your speed." Master Korin walked to the pair.
"Now the bell is about to ring, so go to the lockers and clean up." The old master smiled at them and started putting the rest of the weapons away.
"Remember I won our little bet Woman. I get anything I want." Vegeta said with a smirk on his face. His tail unwrapped and started moving playfully behind him, but Vegeta did not seem to notice, he was having too much fun teasing Bulma.
"And what do you want Vegeta?" Bulma asked slyly, seeing through his tail's playful movements that he was joking with her. She was kind of scared of what he might want from her, but she was impressed by his skill.
"You will have to wait till I cash in my chip Woman. And you should go shower, you stink." Vegeta crossed his arms over his broad chest and smirked when he saw the anger flash in her eyes. She's even hotter when she's angry. This is going to be a very interesting year. Vegeta turned and headed for the guy's locker room with Goku and Krillen short on his heels. The girls quickly headed for their own locker room and all three went straight for the showers.
"So B, what was this about a bet we heard?" Juu said looking at her blue haired friend.
"When me and Vegeta started the match I suggested we make a bet. I said if I win, he has to spend the weekend with us. He seemed kinda reluctant and I said if he wins he . . . could have anything he wanted." Bulma said the last part softly while blushing.
"Bulma! Why would say that to a guy? Now he has ultimate power over you. He can literally ask for anything and you have to give it to him. He won fair and square." Chi Chi was not happy that Bulma had said something so stupid.
"I know Chi! But there is nothing I can do now. He won so I'll just have to wait and see what he has planned." Bulma said whilst unbraiding her hair again. When her hair was loose, she started taking of her shoes and fighting dress. The other two did the same and they all started talking about what they were going to wear to the club on Friday. They discovered they had nothing appropriate and decided to go to the mall Friday after school so that the all could knock the socks off the boys. They also planned to convince Vegeta to go with them no matter what he said.
"Okay so after school on Friday we all meet at my car and head to the mall. We can all get dressed at my house, then go to the club together, and meet the guys there. What do you think?" Bulma said getting out of the shower. Her hair was wet and smelled like fresh strawberries. She walked over to her locker and started getting dressed again.
"Yeah that sounds fine by me. Then we can make all the guys at the club drool when we get out of the car. We are gonna knock them dead." Juu smiled and dried her shoulder length blond hair with a towel. When she was done, she got back into her denim mini skirt, black tank top with a jean jacket. She sat down and started putting her black high heeled boots on again. Chi Chi was already half dressed in her black and pink plaid mini skirt with her white button up short sleeve shirt. She sat down and put her pink high heels on. She rolled her hair into a tight bun and pinned it to her head with two chopsticks.
Bulma was busy brushing her hair, as it was almost completely dry and started curling into big, soft goldy-locks curls. She braided a small piece on either side of her face and pinned both small braids behind her head. She had used a small hairdryer in her locker to get her side fringed perfect. When her hair was done, she put on some eyeliner and lip-gloss before starting to put on her boots. Because they were lace up and ended just below her knees, it took her at least 10minutes to put them on. While she was doing this, the other two girls also put on some eyeliner and lip-gloss.
When they were all done, they headed out the locker doors. Outside Goku and Krillen were waiting.
"Hey guys. Where's Vegeta?" Bulma said looking for his ebony flame.
"He left already B. said he was hungry. I'm going over to his place later to learn more about Sayians. Isn't that awesome?" Goku was so excited about learning his past that he did not see the disappointed look on Bulma's face.
"Oh well, we better get going. My dad said he is gonna be home early tonight and asked if I could help him with a project. And I still have an ass-load of homework to do." Bulma said trying to hide how she really felt. I know it's stupid, but I wish he said goodbye at least.
"Hey guys I wanted to ask you all a question." Bulma said as they walked out of the gym building.
"Shoot B" Juu and Chi Chi said at the same time and started laughing.
"Yeah B, ask away." Goku said grinning at his best female friend. Krillen just nodded agreeing with the others.
"Well, what do you guys think about inviting Vegeta to join TZF?" Bulma asked looking at her friends.
"That's great idea B!" Chi Chi said nodding approvingly at her blue haired friend.
"Yeah, he's an awesome fighter and we need another strong guy in the group." Krillen said putting his arm around Juu's waist. Goku just grinned. He had the same idea.
"So all of us agree, we only have to wait for Piccolo to meet him tomorrow. When Piccolo gives us the yes, I'll go buy him a jacket and start on the design. I think the dragon should be in blue. We can surprize him with it when he comes to the club on Friday." Bulma rambled on. She was getting really excited and hoped that Piccolo would give them the go.
"Goku, could you check his jacket size for me when you're at his house tonight?" Bulma looked at the tall guy and smiled at him.
"How am I supposed to do that?" Goku scratched the back of his head trying to figure out how he was going to remember Vegeta's jacket size.
"Just take a picture of the label on the inside of his jacket with your phone, idiot." Bulma rolled her eyes and walked to the curb. She reached into her bag and grabbed her car capsule. She pushed a button at the top of the capsule and threw it in the road. A small explosion followed and when the smoke cleared Bulma's purple Dodge Challenger SRT8 was standing in the road. Goku and Krillen gasped and ran to the car.
"You finished it?" Krillen said while inspecting the paint job. The car was a dark metallic purple. On both fenders, Bulma had painted a pattern of black and silver stars. On the hood was the group's club insignia with the dragon in gold, black and silver.
"Yeah. I put the finishing touches on last night." Bulma smiled with pride as she looked at her handy work again.
"Can I have a ride please B?! I've been waiting for you to finish this car for like 6 months now!" Juu jumped up and down in excitement. She loved fast cars, not as much as Bulma, but she still loved the adrenalin.
"Sorry guys, but no rides today. I just wanted to show you the paint job." Bulma walked over to her car, pressed a button on the remote in her hand and the car capsulized again. She bent over and picked up the capsule. Someone suddenly put their hands on her hips and she shot up straight. Her back connected with a rock hard chest and the hands on her hips tightened. Bulma was frozen in shock.
I know, you guys hate me now, but I just had to do that. You will love me again in the next chapter. Review and tell me what will happen next.
Love you guy,
Lilla
