"Here, you and your friend will now be sharing our living quarters; the code is 2537530, Do – NOT- For-get-it!" Vegeta enunciated the last command as if she was a child again.
"Ok, jeez Vegeta I get it, I AM a genius you know?!" she stated in a matter-of-fact tone.
"Yeah well after your performances today I can't be sure" Vegtea said condescendingly. Bulma just poked her tongue out at the Prince in a most childish display, before the automatic door glided open at rapid speed. There inside sat Chi Chi on a 2 seat couch.
"CHI CHI" Bulma screamed in hysteria and sprinted to her friend, unaware of the 3 other men in the room; she jumped on her and gave her a great big hug, almost chocking Chi Chi at the same time.
"B..B..Bulma…your..ch..chocking…ME!" Bulma quickly leapt off her best friend and started to examine her for any injuries, satisfied that she could find none, she beamed down at her friend.
"Aww Chi, I was so worried about you! Why the hell did you pull a stunt like that; now you're in this hell hole too!"
"Hey, I couldn't let you do this alone! Hell no, who would look after you if something went wrong? Who would keep you company, I made that decision own my own because whether you like it or not we are best friends and that's what best friend do!" Both girls stared at each other for a second before the both burst out crying embracing each other and crying out things like,
"I love you!" and "You're my best friend too". Apart from the two girls making a scene, none of the men in the room moved from their spots, they just stared gob-smacked at the show the girls were giving them, never in their whole lives have they been so confused and slightly embarrassed by other people's emotions, they were a real mystery those two Earth women. Chi Chi opened her eyes to see 4 sets of eyes glued onto her and Bulma; she blushed furiously and untangled herself from her best friend.
"Um Bulma there are people here that are dying to met you" Chi spun her friend around. For the first time when she got into the room Bulma noticed the other occupants.
"OH KAMI! HI YOU GUYS!" Bulma ran up to the baffled Saiyans and gave them all a huge hugs. Soon they all came over their dazed state and returned the hug.
"Hey Bulma long time no see!" Kakkarot laughed and hugged his childhood friend.
"Yeah nice to see ya!" said Krillin after his hug.
"Haha yeah look how you've grown" said Radditz giving Bulma a playful slap on the ass during his hug. Vegeta growled and was about to put Radditz in his place however Bulma stepped back and looked straight up at Radditz with a smirk,
"Yeah, wish I could say the same about you!" Bulma nodded her head to Radditz's crotch. Everyone in the room burst out with laughter, Radditz's cheeks went a slight red.
"Whatever wench" he said and sat down. Bulma giggle in victory.
"Hey come on you guys, sit we have so much to catch up on" that's when the room was filled with the loudest stomach growl Bulma had ever heard. Kakarrot blushed and laughed,
"Ha ha, hey Bulma do you think we could catch up will we eat? I'm starving!" Bulma giggled yet again,
"Same old hungry Kakkarot, I thought it was just a growth spurt you were going through, guess not he he." Bulma examined the room that they were in. The walls, floors and roof were all a metal material, just like the rest of the ship. The room was a square with the main door centered in the middle of the wall. She was directly facing the door, sitting down on an old torn couch with a small table in front of her. Two armchairs, both in the same condition as the couch were positioned in front of the couch on either side, containing the table. 2 doors were located on each side of the other walls and had a cupboard separating the two apart. On either side of the main door was a small medical wing, while on the other side was what looked like to be a kitchen, oddly enough didn't have a stove, just a refrigerator, a bench and some cupboards.
"Um you guys, how are we going to cook without a stove?"
"Oh we don't eat here, there is a food hall where all the men on the ship go to, to eat" explained Krillin as they began to get up.
"Ok lets go check it out, see how I can improve the slop they must dish out" Chi Chi stated and headed to the door, Kakkarot caught up with her and asked excitedly,
"You know how to cook?"
"Only the best" Chi Chi smiled proudly, knowing that Kakkarot was about to die from happiness. He grabbed her wrist and pulled her out of the room, Krillin followed laughing with Radditz moping behind. Vegeta was about to follow them to when he remembered that there was someone remaining. Vegeta looked over his shoulder to see Bulma just standing near the chair and stared.
"Onna? Hurry up! What are you doing?"
"Just thinking…"
"What about?" Vegeta said before he could stop himself, why did he care?!
"I dunno…"Bulma trailed off, but then continued, hinting the questionable look in Vegeta's eyes. "I mean, I guess with everything that is happening I never thought I would get so lucky, I mean I could have been dead by now, and Chi, and my planet, but were still all alive, and also I could have been here, all alone, but yet, someone likes me up there and gave me you-" Vegeta's eyebrow lifted "- I mean you guys, so I guess I can't believe how lucky I really am." Bulma looked down slightly embarrassed about what she just shared with the Prince. Vegeta not knowing what to do in situations like theses reverted back into something he knew a little better.
"Onna, if you think you are lucky to be here with me, you are entirely mistaken, I will not look after you, I am a warrior not a babysitter, so get that through your that 'genius' head of yours,"
"Kami Vegeta! You don't HAVE to get all high and mighty on me OK! Damn, I get it! You have told me a billion times, give it a rest already!"
"Onna, if I choose to repeat myself I damn well will do so and there is nothing you can do to stop me!" he smirked and an evil glint in his eye.
"AHHH, YOUR SUCH A BAKA!"
"WENCH!"
"IDIOT!"
"WEAKLING!"
"MONKEY ASS!"
"BITCH!"
"I'M HUNGRY!"
"ME TOO"
"LETS' GO EAT"
"FINE"
"FINE!"
And with that the most arrogant pair in the universe strutted to the food hall with their heads held high.
Once Bulma entered the food hall she scouted around for the others. She couldn't see or hear them due to the surrounding soldiers whistling, making vulgar gestures and making advances at her, however soon cleared off at the sight of the sneering prince quite close behind her. Finally Bulma heard a,
"YOU CALL THIS FOOD?!" and sure enough she found a frustrated Chi Chi criticizing the server behind the counter, with Kakkarot and Krillin looking incredibly uncomfortable behind her (anime style sweat drops on their heads). Bulma ran over and steered Chi Chi away, with much difficultly, wondering if she saved her friend or the server.
"You can change the food and boss them around after you've worked here for sometime, not before," suggested Bulma, secretly looking out for the well being of her friend. Retrieving their food, the group sat down at a table in the middle of the room. Sensing the room had gotten silent, they all turned around, and ludicrously enough, everyone in the whole room were watching the 4 Sayians eat their dinner being accompanied by to females, it was simply uncanny. Vegeta grew impatient with the tension and glared at the onlookers.
"WHAT THE HELL ARE ALL YOU FUCKERS LOOKING AT?" Everyone quickly went back to their own lives and a conceited Vegeta sat down, coming down to 5 faces smiling back at him, he just smirked, shrugged and continued eating. The rest also continued, however Bulma and Chi took forever because frankly the food was vile, but also were amazed at the amount of food the Saiyans ate, and at the rate they consumed it. Kakkarot swallowed and grinned back at them.
"See you still don't eat much, eh Bulma?"
"Yeah it's not even a snack" added Krillin, with a mouth full of food.
"Hey, I eat enough, humans don't need to eat the same amount of food you Saiyans do-"
"Hey Baby" Bulma stopped and turned around to face a red looking alien with white hair in front of a group of aliens looking at her and licking their lips.
"Excuse me?"
"Hey baby, you see my dinner was crap, so I had my hopes up for dessert and by looks on the menu you're it." The alien chuckled at his remark and gave Bulma a suggestive action. Bulma rolled her eyes in disgust, 'Seriously I have had enough of this!'
"Aw, you didn't like your food? Well that just too bad, here have some of MINE" and with that Bulma heaved her plate of food right into alien's face.
"AHH! YOU STUPID BITCH" he screamed, and motioned one of his friends to advance on Bulma, however before he could do anything, he to was pelted by food, this time not by Bulma but Chi Chi. Infuriated, the group of aliens advanced towards the group, however now the Saiyans had picked up their food (much to Kakkarot's dismay) and hurled their food at them, which much more force. The aliens picked up the nearest plate and started to cast them towards the groups, the girls hit the floor, while the boy skillfully dodged the flying cuisines. One of the plates hit the table behind the Saiyans, furiously they too responded with food throwing.
"FOOD FIGHT!" Krillin screamed, and soon enough the whole cafeteria was filled with Frieza's soldiers chucking enormous amounts of food at each other with immense force. Bulma and Chi Chi, however were having a tremendous timing chucking food at aliens that could kill them with one flick of a wrist, however they didn't get the chance to because either one of the Saiyans where behind the girls, watching their backs. However defending themselves and the puny earthlings, the boys decided it was time to leave. Quickly gathering the girls and tossing them over their shoulders the Saiyans flew out of the food hall at lightening speed towards their room.
Laughing uncontrollably, the two girls staggered into the main room, clutching on to each other. They watched as Vegeta and Krillin came in, then Kakkarot soon followed with his arms full of food. This set them off again.
"How can you eat more?"
"Eat more? I didn't even get to finish my dinner" Kakkarot protested, and sat down to his food. Bulma just amusingly shook her head.
"Hey were did Radditz go?"
"He went with some other soldiers" Krillin answered, sneakily attempting to steal some of Kakkarot's food.
"That was so much fun! Hehe I can't believe you started it Bulma" Chi Chi smiled proudly at her friend, Bulma grinned back in pure smugness. Vegeta rolled his eyes.
"Once again Onna, you prove to be an idiot and a hazard to yourself, therefore should refrain from ever using your brain, if you do so have one, and just shut your mouth." This time it was Vegeta's turn to smirk at his incredible comeback. Bulma just poked her tongue out at him (she found this quite affective) and changed the topic.
"Well that guy was such a jerk, in fact all these guys are jerks, do you know him?"
"Yeah Jeice, we know nearly everyone on this ship, but I just hang out with these guys" said Kakkarot, signaling the two men either side of him.
"Yeah, it is really hard to find some one you can trust on this ship, especially out on missions, some just leave you there to die I've heard" Krillin said gravely.
"What do your guys do on missions?" Chi Chi asked, a little bit scared of the answer.
"Purge mostly" Kakkarot had a contemplating look on his face. Bulma gulped, remembering Earth.
"You guys purge…even after what happened to planet Vegeta-sei?" She asked quietly, as if she didn't want to ask at all. The Saiyans all looked at her surprised; however cast their eyes down in shame.
"It...it's not like we have a choice Bulma, it either kill, or be killed here" Kakkarot tired to defend his actions helplessly.
"Yeah, it's not like we enjoy killing, we like the battle but we're not killers, we just don't have a choice." Krillin tried to back Kakkarot up with the same amount of futileness.
"We are not going to let our people down by dying, they fought hard for our survival and we will not put their efforts to shame." Both Kakkarot and Krillin looked up at the girls, trying desperately to make them understand the method of their ways. Chi Chi and Bulma both looked at each other and then back.
"We understand what you guys mean. I guess we're kinda doing it ourselves, working for the enemy. But look, I know I'm doing this for my family and planet's existence, even though I might never see them again, but I don't believe that, I know that I will see them again, that's why I took the offer; because I believe, I guess I started to believe when I knew you guys were alive. Our planet will be free someday and then so will yours" Bulma had endless emotions flickering in her eyes, happiness, sadness, understanding, desperateness, courage and hope. However her thoughts were rudely interrupted with a growl from Vegeta.
"Naïve baka don't be such a fool, you're under the most ruthless tyrant's rule now, there is no way you will ever see you're planet or family again," he hissed and marched to his room, slamming the door. Bulma taken back by Vegeta's harsh tone sat there and stared at his door. His words cut her so deep. A little tear formed in her eye.
"Hey Bulma, don't worry about it, Vegeta just gets a little sensitive when talking about Vegeta-sei and all, it's not you," Kakkarot patted Bulma on the back trying to comfort her. Bulma snapped out of her daze and gave him a heart-warming smile.
"Well I think I'll hit the sack, Knowing Vegeta he probably wants us up at 5 doing a warm up!" Krillin yawned and stretched his small but muscular arms.
"Yeah you're probably right, hey you two better get some sleep as well, I think you're gonna start work tomorrow, and we'll come and collect you guys for breakfast later ok? Night!" Kakarrot cheerfully waved as he went to his room, Krillin did the same and went to his.
"Oh by the way you girls are sleeping there" Krillin pointed to a door slightly away from the couch. Bulma and Chi Chi headed towards it, wondering why they never saw it before. Inside, the room was ordinary. There were two beds on opposite sides pushed up against the walls. A cupboard took the space between the two beds which was underneath a rectangle shaped window. There was one wardrobe on the opposite wall facing the window. The bathroom was on the side. It was about the size of two toilet cubicles, holding a shower, toilet and a sink. The walls, floors and ceiling were metal, and they had huge square florescent lights built into the ceiling.
"Nice" Chi Chi spewed out, sarcastically. Bulma nodded and sat down on the left bed, bouncing up and down, testing it. It was hard and uncomfortable, Bulma winced in disapproval. Chi Chi read her mind and sighed.
"I'm gonna have a shower" Bulma nodded and watched her friend grimly go into the smallest bathroom in the world, leaving Bulma to her thoughts. Why had Vegeta's reaction hit her so hard? It wasn't like the other times where he was doing it to piss her off, he meant it with complete sincerity, and this troubled her. It was like all she said, meant nothing to him, as if he didn't believe it, or refused to believe it, or just plainly given up hope, which scared her, but what scared her the most was the thought that Vegeta's words might be in fact true.
"Hey Bulma?" Chi Chi poked her head through the door and looked anxiously at Bulma,
"What are we gonna do about pjs?" Bulma laughed at her friends juvenile fretfulness, here they were stuck on a murderous ship and all Chi Chi was worried about was what to wear to bed! Bulma giggled, Chi was right, she wouldn't have survived without her. Walking over to the cupboard, she produced two large white shirts and tossed one to Chi Chi. She quickly slipped it over her head and walk out.
"All yours"
Bulma disappointedly, stepped out of the shower and dried herself off with the towels she found. It was so comforting to be under the warm massaging water, she wanted to stay there forever. Putting on her shirt and picking up her clothes, something fell out of her pocket, 'MY CAPSULES!' Bulma ran out of the bathroom to tell Chi Chi the good news; however she found a completely knocked out Chi Chi sleeping peacefully under her covers. Bulma smiled at the picture, she decided not to wake her exhausted friend up, and would tell her about the capsules in the morning. Lying down own her own bed, Bulma didn't realize how tired she was either, until her head graceful hit the pillow, at that moment, how soft the mattress was not a concern.
The ceiling was a gleaming sheet of metal. Untouched by dirt and blood, it reflected the Sayian no Ouji, lying in his bed, staring up towards it. The ceiling looked so clean, that if turned upside down, one could just glide across it. Vegeta longed to be able to do that. Up there, where everything smoothly glided along, however, in reality, he was condemned to as low as one could be on the floor, amongst the trampling, dust and blood. Vegeta scowled at his reflection. The Onna had no idea what she was talking about. You couldn't just turn the room around and voila, be gliding along. It was ludicrous, and as much as Vegeta hated to recognize it, impossible. Of course she believed now, she had only been on the ship for less than 24 hours, he had been on this ship for 12 years! Vegeta closed his eyes; he remembered the passion and desperation he had seen as she spoke her words of confidence. Vegeta cringed at the site; it was like watching himself 12 years ago. He distinctly remembered thinking the same thoughts, and he was only a boy. From that moment on in his life, he trained. He trained with all his might, pushing himself to unknown limits, and severely injuring himself in the process. The others followed his example, and this only made him more confident about reaching his goal. However, 12 years later, they were still in the shit hole. He still determinedly trains, hoping that his hard discipline would finally pay off. Although, after hearing another voice his thoughts, it seemed so futile, she was a mere Earth woman, therefore incapable to make a difference physically, and he, the Prince of the mighty Saiyans, was still at the mercy of Frieza. How was she ever going to achieve her goal, when he was still trying to achieve his? Vegeta sighed at his question, he didn't want to think about his failure; it just infuriated him more. Angrily he stared up at the ceiling, as if defying his reflection, he would continue to train, and soon show her and everyone else what the Saiyan no Ouji was made of. He would get out of this hell hole, even if it killed him. He didn't know why he had gotten so riled up all of a sudden, however blood pumped rapidly through his veins, and he smirked at the sensation, maybe all he needed was just some motivation.
