(A/N) Time for another update :D Hope some of you find the time to check out my deviantart (links in my profile) and leave a comment or two haha, but regardless, enjoy :) Also sorry about the random update times, I try to switch between this and my other story, if you haven't read it please check it out, I actually generally prefer writing that storyline lol, not to say this isn't entertaining :D
Disclaimer: I don't own DBZ etc.
Vegeta punched up the Gravity and set about his latest training routine, under 300 times gravity his body was in hell, every muscle fibre stretched to breaking point and burning with adrenaline. "Super Saiyan" The thought whispered through his head, again and again it sounded, a thousand times a day he was tormented by Kakarot, by his failure. Vegeta stopped for a moment, forgetting the ki blast bouncing over head, forgetting the intense pressure he was under, and his mind was blank as a single word echoed through his head once again. "Failure".
Suddenly the ki blast grazed his side, knocking him out of his silence as he grunted and fell to the ground, the ki orb still playing dangerously overhead. Vegeta saw the bots move again, this time to finish him. Vegeta growled, "NO"
"No, not like this" Vegeta roared. With a tremendous effort he summon what little strength he had left, pouring it into a single ki ball, straining to suspend it the hostile environment. He struggled as the force of his own ki fought against him, powered by will alone he screamed his rage and the two balls merged in a devastating explosion. Vegeta's eyes where blank as his energy engulfed him and shattered the barriers of his world of hostility.
Bulma was bored out of her mind: she had been listening to her mothers inane chatter for what seemed like an eternity, she felt sure her I.Q was dropping whilst she was listening. Her thought drifted, not for the first time that conversation, to the angry Saiyan prince. After the fiasco in the jungle he had moved for a complete block on social contact, moving completely into his training; honestly Bulma thought it was excessive even for Vegeta: his fuse was shorter than ever, anything that stopped him even for a moment set him of, and his obsession with Goku was rapidly spinning out of control, threatening to tip the scales in his mind and dip him into madness. "even he must have his limits" Bulma tiredly thought about the princes self-torturous training. Even as this thought was bouncing around her head she heard an explosion that rocked the ground of the compound.
Running outside she saw the smouldering heap of the Gravity chamber, black smoke spewing out of the wreckage. Yamcha was not far behind her as she ran up and looked down worriedly at the sharp metal shards littering the ground, some looked to be unmovable from the capsule corporation lawn.
"I knew this would happen, hes been trying to do the impossible!" Yamcha decided to share his unhelpful input, almost causing Bulma to glare at him, was now really the time to insult Vegeta? But her worry was stronger than her anger at the moment, had he finally overdone it? She kneed down and started to franticly search amongst the rubble, searching for something, anything that would prove that her angry Saiyan would live to bother her another day...wait her Saiyan? Where did that come from, though it's not like anyone else is claiming him...Her thoughts where interrupted by a bloody and broken hand punching through the metallic rubble.
Bulma fell backwards as Vegeta rose up from the rubble, his muscles trembling as the two humans looked on in shock. Blood was speared across his chest and shards of metal where all over his chest and arms. Bulma was the first to recover from seeing the battered Saiyan stand before her.
"Are...are you okay?" She timidly asked
"Of course woman, i'm Saiyan, i'm fine." Bulma relaxed a little and let out a sigh of relif, which quickly turned to anger as her mind processed the effect that the arrogant Saiyan could have had on her house.
"How dare you, you moron, you almost wrecked my house!" Bulma screamed at the Saiyan, not noticing the shaking legs beneath him. The only response she got was a small half-laugh from Vegeta as he attempted to stand straight, and with a decidedly unprincely feint he collapsed to the ground.
"Oh no" Bulma ran to his side and looked at his bloody arms, each with many cuts and scratches on them from the explosion, but both also contained layers of scars, relics of his life with Frieza, and not for the first time she shuddered at the thought of life with the tyrant; Namek had been bad enough. Turning him onto his back the glared up at Yamcha who seemed content to look down upon Vegeta now that for once he was in a superior position.
"Oi, Yamcha stop being an arse and help me with Vegeta"
"Do what now?" Yamcha questioned, not overly concerned with the unconscious Saiyan's pain.
"Grrr. Get Vegeta up to the medical wing NOW you moron, unless you want to have an android make a nice round hole in your chest!" Yamcha grunted and sighed, knowing that it was best not to argue with Bulma and that when she wanted something it happened, even if he did not care if the grumpy Saiyan got his new ticket to hfil, he deserved it down there anyway. Rolling his eyes he picked up the temporarily out of commission Saiyan and without much care, flung him over his shoulder, ignoring Bulma yelling at him for his lack of care as he walked to one of the medical facilities within the complex.
Bulma followed Yamcha, glaring scornfully at him for his lack of care, and set about mending the beaten down warrior, wrapping his wounds and placing in an IV. Whilst washing her hands after, since a lot of Vegeta's blood had been on the wrong side of his body, she looked over to him, he looked almost peaceful in his healing slumber, possibly the most peaceful since he had come to Earth. Smiling at this thought she sat down on a chair and laid her head on the desk, content to wait and watch the Saiyan to make sure he recovered fully, but a little nap couldn't hurt.
(A/N) Just a little short chapter detailing the gravity room sequence :D, I know its not the best section to do but it's a necessary part and it will be more interesting during the recovery I promise you. Also I hope Yamcha wasn't to much of an arse in this chapter, but that's how he sounds when Vegeta is hurt in the episode, and I just don't like the character really :P
