Ok guys here we go. Chapter 1. This is where the major changes start, I'm starting after the events of GT only Goku never left and he's back to his normal self. Well enjoy. Remember, I don't own DBZ in any way, shape, or form.
Chapter 1
Bulma awoke with a start from the nightmare. She looked around the dimly lit room and realized Vegeta wasn't back yet. At first she wondered where the hell he was, but then remembered that he and Goku had left earlier that day. It had been a couple of months after the incident with Omega Shenron and both Goku and Vegeta had recently become obsessed with training in Super Saiyan Four mode. Since they were both unbelievably strong in that state, and they didn't want to hurt the Earth, they decided to take a spaceship and train in space.
Seeing as how she probably wasn't going to be getting a decent night's sleep, Bulma begrudgingly got up and made her way to the bathroom. Once there, she stripped herself of her clothing and looked at her body in the full length mirror. To say she was annoyed was an understatement. She noticed the parts of her body that were beginning to show signs of sagging and she sighed.
'If only human bodies were as long lasting as ours'
She closed her eyes and cloaked her chi as well as she could. In an instant, her body began to change. Her skin becoming more youthful, her hair began to grow in length. Her eyes changed to a much more intense shade of blue. Almost glowing. Her canines began growing as well, becoming sharp fangs. The tips of her ears became long and pointy. Once her transformation was complete she opened her eyes and looked at her body once more.
'Much better.' She thought.
To say she was beautiful didn't do her justice. Her body was once again strong and youthful. Her beauty was unmatched. She looked at herself with a nostalgic air. She wished she could stay like this all the time and not have to disguise herself, but she knew there was no other way. She sighed once again, remembering the beginning of it all.
After she and Chi Chi had landed on Earth, they began to familiarize themselves with the unknown planet. They traveled all around and noticed the ways of Earthlings. Little by little, Bulma worked on spells that would change their appearance but not their actual molecular structure. Slowly she taught the necessary spells to Chi Chi. It wasn't much of a change. The only major difference was their beauty. Chi Chi wasn't ugly by any means, in fact she was quite beautiful, but she didn't have Bulma's beauty. As time went on, Bulma sadly noticed that human's lives were short in comparison to theirs. Fleeting even. And so Bulma realized that in order for them to fit in more, they had to age as well. It wasn't something either of them was happy about.
They had to also thing about their nutrition. In their home planet they sustained themselves by drinking the blood of other beings. They never killed any beings; they just simply had a lot of variety. At first being on Earth, they realized it would be hard. They couldn't very well travel to other planets for fear that they would be found. So they had to learn to sustain themselves on human food as well. It was hard, but they managed. During this time, Bulma was also training.
After her humiliating defeat at His hands, she decided she had to get stronger. Again, she couldn't very well travel to another planet to train, so she taught Chi Chi how to create a force field that would keep Bulma inside and still be powerful to withstand her attacks. As time went on and she got stronger, she thought of going back and challenging him again, but she knew it would be fruitless effort. She knew she had to somehow become stronger than him, and that was next to impossible. Years turned into decades and they remained on Earth. Even though they had been on Earth for many years, they had still yet to form any relationships with anyone. Bulma decided she didn't wish to be tied down to anyone. So therefore steered clear from humans.
Then she found out about Dr. Briefs and his intelligence, she found it fascinating for him to so intelligent for a human being and decided to join him. She decided to become his daughter and therefore made him and his wife believe they had a young daughter named Bulma. In order to maximize her time with them, she made herself as young as she could go and became a child. She also aided Chi Chi in becoming a child as well. Slowly, Bulma grew very fond of Dr. Briefs and his wife and even began thinking that perhaps this wasn't so bad after all.
After learning of the dragon balls, she decided to search for them in hopes of gaining strength and finally defeating Him. She thought her plan was perfect, she would wish for vast amounts of power and go back to her planet and finally defeat him. There was no flaw she saw in it…until Goku came along. She knew what he was instantly. The tail was a dead giveaway but also his strength. She found it strange to find a Saiyan on Earth, but she didn't question it. She figured he could probably get the dragon balls and then that would be the end of it. She didn't count on liking him so much, or on meeting Yamcha. The rest was history. Both she and Chi Chi decided upon staying with their respective partners. Once Gohan was born it became evident that Chi Chi had chosen where she would spend the rest of her life.
Bulma wasn't so convinced. After breaking up with Yamcha, she considered leaving for good. But then Vegeta came along. She knew that he would be her undoing. He had no idea how perfect they were for each other because he had no idea of what she truly was. Even when Trunks was born she never told him. When she found out that Future Trunks and her Trunks were the same boy, she realized something. She had decided to stay. Like Chi Chi, she would eventually give up any thought to go back to their home planet and remain as a human as long as she could. From the very beginning of their marriages, Chi Chi and Bulma had decided on not letting their identity become known. They decided it would be easier that way. There were times though when it was hard to pretend to be a weakling human. Desperate times like with Cell and especially with Buu. They had both almost lost it, but thankfully their husbands always came through in the end.
Their most recent battle with Omega Shenron only reaffirmed their thoughts of keeping their identity a secret. They both saw how amazing Vegeta and Goku had become. They saw their joy and awe at their power. Bulma knew that Vegeta thought he had finally caught up with Goku. He thought he was once again the strongest in the universe. He had no idea how wrong he was. Both he and Goku had no idea how little their power truly was. They had no idea that compared to her, they were weak.
As she contemplated her life so far, her thoughts returned to Chi Chi. Was she restless as well? For some reason Bulma couldn't help but think that something bad was going to happen. Something that meant impending doom for them all. She decided to pay a visit to her longtime friend and see what her take was on it.
Meanwhile, on a ship heading towards Earth, Goku had a strange sensation.
"Vegeta, do you feel that?"
The saiyan Prince stopped what he was doing and turned towards his friend.
"What in the world is that Kakarrot! I've never felt such power! It's incredible."
"It's heading for Earth Vegeta we have to do something!"
The two saiyans looked at each other for advice. Goku had never felt a stronger power in his life. This power made Omega Shenron seem weak.
"Kakarrot we can't fight that…"
"Well, hold on Vegeta. Who says this power belongs to someone evil! He could mean us no harms"
Vegeta rolled his eyes at Goku's idiocy.
"Please Kakarrot. Be serious."
As the tense moments went by Goku decided on something.
"Ok, how about this, I'll use instant transmission and get us to Earth now, that way we'll be ready. We'll have to leave the ship here, you don't think Bulma will mind very much do you?"
"Of course not Kakarrot, it only took her months to build it. I'm sure she won't mind that it was all for nothing. Honestly Kakarrot use your brains. But I suppose there's no other way. Let's just go."
Goku gave his signature grin before taking them back to Earth.
At the same time, on the other side of the galaxy, a huge ship was slowly approaching Earth. A man was standing in front of the controls and looked towards the blue planet.
"I've found you Princess."
So what'd you think? Please remember to review for it keeps me writing more =)
