A/N: My crack at a character vampire get-together. Bulma and Vegeta, Kakarott and Chi Chi, Krillin and 18. Yay!
A/N: Bulma may act OOC right now, but she'll be her usual spunky fiesty self in no time!
Chapter 23 A vow
Last Time on OPB...
Vegeta grinned and ruffled Trunks's hair. He went over to the pile of knocked out men and knealt down and hefted all of them over his shoulders. Trunks followed him back towards the manor. All Vegeta could think was what was that blue light surrounding Trunks body.
It must have something to do with that necklace Vegeta thought.
On with the sweetness...
Marron giggled as with Goten as they sat infront of the dungeon gates, poking and teasing the men inside.
"Yay and you smell like poop!" Goten shouted.
"Yeah!"
"And we'll suck you up to!"
"Yeah" Marron replied happily.
"All right you two, teasing these bad people is a waste of time" 18 said gently.
The kids followed suit, and stopped. Goten did however blow a razzberry. The biggest prisoner growled. The children skipped out of the darkness.
Vegeta closed the library doors behind him. He turned and saw Yamcha standing before him. Both sported facial expressions of bussiness.
"What is it you wish to speak to me about Vegeta?"
Vegeta stepped forward. His eyes were searching Yamcha's for answers.
"What is that necklace you gave to Trunks really? Tell me what it is."
"I'm insuring the longevity of Trunks ruling. You think he can get strong when he's older, with that necklace and aswell as another gift I'll give to him later, all of this plus his combined strength is what will makw him the strongest Vampire in over 3 thousand years."
"How can a simple necklace insure this?" Vegeta asked.
"That isn't a ordinary necklace. It contains a stone that has been said to bring power for anyone's desire. For instance, Trunks was about to be hurt by those hoodlums. He knew he couldn't face them. That blue light you saw was the stone's energy protecting them from you. In actuallity Vegeta, if you weren't there to save him, he wouldn't have needed saving."
Vegeta's eyes boggled at the truth he had just learned.
"Is that so? What else will happen to him?"
"I can't tell you, as much as I'd like, he needs to figure this out on his own, and not have mommy and daddy pointing the way. Just train him and I'll take care of the rest."
Vegeta growled to himself.
"This is for the best interest of everyone. When he's old enough he'll recieve the other gift from me, but for now all I ask is you train him. Don't question my judgement please."
Bulma sat up and rubbed her eyes. Her mind was slowly adapting to her surroundings. She stretched and yawned. She felt so rested. She stopped suddenly and looked down at her stomach and felt a small, very tiny energy. She covered her mouth from exaspering a squeal of glee. Just as she regained herself, the doors flew open and Trunks came running into the room.
"Mama!"
"Trunks baby"
Trunks jumped onto the bed and into his mother's open lap.
"But you're supposed to be with your grandparents"
"I know..." Trunks said softly.
Bulma pulled away from his grip and loked into his sky blue eyes.
"What happened Trunks?"
Trunks opened his mouth, but nothing came out. The doors flew open and Vegeta came inside. His eyes settled on Trunks.
"Trunks please leave us for a moment" Vegeta asked sternly.
Trunks nodded and left the room. He wanted to stick around and listen through the door but...
"Get away from the door Trunks!" Vegeta shouted, his voice penetrating through the solid oak door. Trunks crossed his arms over one another and sported a sour mug, that is until Goten came running down the hall.
"Trunks, there you are!"
"Hey Goten, what's happenin'?" Trunks asked, perplexed at his friend's need to speak.
"It's Gohan...and Uub...they're fighting behind the castle...over some human girl"
Trunks got the whole message, even though Goten stopped to take big gulps of air. He nodded and grinned.
Let's see what Buffy's little prince is up to.
"Stop it!" Marron moaned.
"Uuub, you don't have to do this!" Gohan shouted.
"She's not one of us! How can you trust her? She may make you feel wanted, but she'll only hurt you! Believe me on this! We are brothers of the same. Don't turn away cause of this...filthy human"
Gohan growled and punched Uub in the jaw.
"How dare you say Videl's filthy? She's the only one here who understands me! You hear me! The only one! And I don't give a damn if she's diffrent from me or not!"
Gohan was about to continue a slue of punches on Uub, if it weren't for the small hands that held him back.
"Gohan no...please stop!"
"Videl?"
Gohan pulled back and saw the small girl with tears pouring down her face in streams, mingled with the smudges of dirt from afternoon playtime. Trunks and Goten arrived finally. Goten out of breath and wheezing.
"Man...I...missed...it" Goten said regretfully.
"Fine then, be with that trash! Traitor!" Uub shouted as he spat on Gohans's feet.
"The only one trash here is you Uub!" Trunks shouted.
Uub turned around and finally noticed Trunks there. He sneered at him.
"Pathetic, you are as weak as him. A runt like you can not deal with matters of such magnitude."
"You underestimate me. The day you defeat me is the day I leave this castle!"
"Then it's settled" Trunks vowed in a whisper.
Drama! The next chapter will be the end of these kids being the age they are and we will soon step up to a new timeline...more Drama will commence! Sorry if I'm not sticking with Chi Chi and Kakarott, or 18 and Krillin.
