Disclaimer: ahh what the hell, sue me. (Wait, that is NOT a good idea)

Chapter 6.

When Goku came to he was lying in a hospital bed at the Capsule Corp. compound. His head was killing him! Trying to remember what happened to him the previous day Goku sat up, only to be flooded with a vicious wave of nausea. Slapping his hand over his mouth he took a deep breath, trying his hardest to keep himself from throwing up. Although he was sure all the contents in his stomach had been digested and properly absorbed.

"Ugh, I really wonder what happened" Goku said

"Oh, don't let me ruin it for you. Your pathetic third class body couldn't even withstand a pitiful human panic attack. Sad Kakarot, how very sad." Vegeta smirked.

Goku rolled his eyes. He was in absolutely no mood to argue with the saiyan prince, but for some reason he knew he had to make an equally smart ass remark.

"Vegeta, before you continue with your insults I really think that you should take time to reflect back on how many times this 'third class body' kicked your Saiyan Prince ass. And keep talking and you won't have to reflect back because it will happen right now."

The smirk that Vegeta wore on his face suddenly vanished as quickly as it appeared. 'What the hell is wrong with Kakarot?' He wondered. Vegeta looked at Goku, something was definitely up, and he just couldn't put his finger on it. He would find out, Vegeta always found out. Just as Vegeta opened his mouth to take another jab at the irritated third class Bulma walked into the room.

"Goku!' she exclaimed. "Oh my Kami, you're awake, how are you feeling?"

"I-"

Before he could finish his sentence he was cut off by the Prince. "He's fine woman, none of your retarded earthling mental problems can harm a Sai-". That's about as far as Vegeta got before he was cut off by a very rude Bulma.

"Hmm, I don't remember asking for your input Vegeta and to be perfectly honest I don't even know why you're here. I told you to lay Goku on the table and then leave; do you suddenly not understand English? Has your almighty Saiyan hearing suddenly begun to fail you? Or are you seriously just that dense that you don't understand a simple command, weird. I could have sworn that commands were all your simple Saiyan brain could comprehend, seeing as how all Frieza did was bark commands at you, and like the good lap dog you are run to your master's feet awaiting further instruction."

'WHAT THE FUCK HAS GOTTEN INTO THIS HUMAN WOMAN TO THINK THAT SHE COULD ADDRESS A SAIYAN PRINCE IN THIS DISREPECTFUL MANNER'

Vegeta was pissed. No, scratch that. He was psychologically livid.

"Who the fuck do you-"

"Ah… no, no Vegeta. When I say jump, you say how high. You understand?"

"What the fuck?" Those were the only three words that managed to escape Vegeta's mouth. His normally hard obsidian eyes now only held a look of pure and utter confusion. He just couldn't believe what Bulma had said to him, and to rub salt into the wound Goku was lying right there on the hospital bed watching the whole scene unfold before his eyes. Vegeta didn't know what to make of this situation. Then an idea struck him. About the same time every month Bulma went on a rampage, angry, then sad. Whenever this happened Vegeta always made a beeline straight to the gravity room. Saved him from arguing with the woman, even though he did miss the great make up sex after her period had passed. Suddenly it all became very clear to Vegeta; Bulma was on her period! Of course. Why had he not seen this before?

Waving her off he turned around to leave the infirmary. "Bulma when you get off your period you know where to find me". As he made his way to the door the next thing Bulma sad to him cut him down a thousand times worst than any beating he ever got from Goku.

Sighing, in an all too calm voice Bulma said; "Vegeta, I'm done. We are done. Get your shit and please get out. Take only what you came with." Vegeta slowly turned around. Eyes narrowing as he turned on his heels and eyeing Bulma as if she just told the biggest lie she could ever tell to his face. Bulma saw his look of confusion and knew that a huge argument was going to ensue, and maybe Vegeta may get violent. She couldn't be too sure, so for her safety she made her way to where Goku was pulling on his boots. She could also tell that he sensed something big was going to happen.

Putting her hand on Goku's shoulder she asked him quietly "Please don't let him hurt me." Goku's shocked eyes rose to meet her fearful ones. She was not kidding. She wanted Vegeta out, and she wanted him out now! With a small nod of his head he agreed.

"What the fuck did you say bitch?" Vegeta said in a low menacing voice. He was trembling all over from anger he never knew he had. 'How could she do this to me… that … that BITCH"

"BIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTCCCCHHHHH" Vegeta screamed as he launched himself as her hands outreached ready to grab her neck and snap it right off. Seeing him charge to Bulma Goku quickly pushed her out of his line of reached and replaced her body with his own.

"YOU FUCKING CUNNNTTTT!! I'LL FUCKING KILL YOU!" Vegeta raged as he throttled Goku. Vegeta was throwing wildly but none of the punches had any real force behind it. Vegeta was so angry and emotionally distraught that he couldn't even see straight, let alone fight. Goku used Vegeta's temporary predicament to render him unconscious with a swift chop to the base of his skull. As Vegeta's eyes rolled back into his skull and his knees gave out Goku managed to catch him before he hit the floor. He picked him up in his arms bridal style and looked over to Bulma who had a busted nose from being pushed into some infirmary equipment. Goku looked her over and seeing no serious injuries he apologized and put two fingers to his head to instant transmit Vegeta and himself before the rabid prince woke up. Before he transported Bulma called out to him.

"Goku?"

"Yes Bulma?"

"I'm… I'm sorry that we had to have this out again in front of you" Goku blinked confused.

"Again?"

As if she sensed he was going to ask that question, she was already nodding. "Yes again. I would just really appreciate it if you look after him for awhile, at least until this whole thing blows over."

"I give you my word Bulma"

Placing two fingers to his head, Goku vanished, leaving Bulma to sulk alone. She was alone. Finally, alone.

He teleported right into his kitchen. Sighing he carried the lithe prince over to the big comfy couch in the living room and laid him down. Walking back to the decent sized kitchen he threw himself onto a barstool at the island top counter.

"How the hell am I going to explain this to Vegeta when he wakes up? He's going to be mighty pissed off, and I can't keep track of him 24/7 so who knows! He may head back to CC and hurt Bulma… or worse, kill her." He mumbled half to himself and half to whom ever took upon themselves to listen. Rolling his eyes he took a deep breath. He had to wake Vegeta up now. Why put off something for tomorrow when you can do it today? He really hoped that he could put it off until the next day, but knowing Vegeta he would wake up at the crack of dawn sensing something isn't right, or remembering the previous day's events and go on a killing spree. Goku just could not let that happen.

"Well I better do it now"

Goku slowly walked over prone position on the couch. Taking a deep breath he reached down and shook Vegeta awake. The older man stirred but didn't seem to want to come out of his unconscious state.

"Vegeta, Vegeta wake up. We need to talk"

Vegeta let out a groan. His eye lids fluttered opened; he blinked a few times until everything came into focus. He saw Goku standing above him with a very sympathetic look on his face. Wondering why the idiot looked so sad, all of the memories rushed back to him leaving him feeling very drained and in all honesty, sad. He sighed heavily as tears threatened to spill down his cheeks. 'I will not cry for that bitch' he mentally willed himself.

"Vegeta, I just want you to know that I will always be here for you and you can't go back to CC. I didn't get a chance to get your things but I'll go and get them for you if you want" Goku offered.

Vegeta scoffed. "Oh please Kakarot. And exactly what are you going to collect? My body suit? That's the only thing I had when I first came back to miserable planet to live with that miserable bitch." Goku hung his head. It was true. Everything in that house belonged to Bulma and her family. Even though Goku thought Vegeta had finally become a part of the Briefs family he had been sorely mistaken. He knew that this was eating Vegeta up inside. He wanted to comfort the prince but he didn't know how. Slowly but surely Vegeta rose from his position on the couch and took a deep reassuring breath, and began walking to the door.

Raising alarm, Goku went after him. "Where are you going Vegeta?"

"Far away" the prince responded.

"Vegeta please don't go back to CC or do anything stupid"

"I won't Kakarot"

Goku eyed Vegeta suspiciously. Something was up. This was so unlike Vegeta to give up so easily. Was he secretly plotting something? Was he going to do something drastic? Goku couldn't tell, but she knew that the prince was acting very strange, and something about it just didn't sit right with him.

"Vegeta…" Goku warned.

"Kakarot, please. I'm not going to do anything to that bitch or her family ok? I'm just going to .. uh .. Meditate somewhere and clear my head. I really need to be alone right now. I know in your third class brain you want to help me … but how about you help me by just not doing anything at all."

"Vegeta please don't leave I know everything is really fucked up right now, but I promise you everything will get better. Please… please don't go."

"Kakarot, I'm sorry. But I have to do this."

"No you don't" Goku countered. "If you want you can hang out here, and we can pretend that, you know, none of this ever happened. If it makes you feel any better. Come on Vegeta."

Vegeta laughed. "Pretend huh Kakarot?"

Goku smiled. "Yep, we can just pretend"

Vegeta Nodded. "Fine, let's go! I'm starving"

Goku laughed. "Ha ha Vegeta. You read my mind, well let me go whip us up something, how's fish?"

Vegeta, still very much out of character, shrugged. "It really doesn't matter to me" 'come on… turn around. I just want you to drop your guard again, just like our fight before I faced Buu.' Vegeta thought. Goku turned around to head to the kitchen. Mistake. 'GOTCHA'

With an almost fatal blow to Goku's temple, he crumbled to the linoleum without a sound.

Vegeta sneered down at the near life-less body. "You always were too trusting baka."

Turning around Vegeta opened the front door and took to the sky, not caring that he didn't lock up. He was flying at top speed to one location and one location only. Capsule Corp.

Touching down on the CC compound Vegeta instantly located Bulma's ki. She was in the kicking down the lab doors he stared down petrified Bulma.

"Oh my gods. Vegeta, what do you want."

Smirking he replied; "We need to have a little chat."

A/n: OMG … what is going to happen to Bulma?!!! Please read and review. Until Next time … R. Yiruma
