Here's another chapter. I hope you guys like it. Please let me know. Thank you again for reading.

Not that Chi-Chi didn't like Trunks, but she didn't like how Goku just springs things on him. She had made enough food for Goku, Gohan, and Goten with a little left over for her and Videl. The three of the Sons could eat all the food in the house in one setting if it was allowed, and to have another Saiyan added to the mix meant less food for Videl and herself to eat. Sighing she looked at Trunks with a smile. "Hi Trunks, how are you doing? What brings you here? Would you like to eat with us?"

"Hello Chi-Chi. Actually I'm not really hungry. I was just wanted to hang out with Goten if it was possible. I can come back at another time though if you all are busy." Trunks said very politely.

Videl and Gohan walked up to the group holding hands. "Come on Trunks what's with the formalities? You know you are allowed to come over and stay whenever you want." Gohan added while jostling his hair.

"Thanks" Trunks said slightly uncomfortable. He was an only child in a not too common family. He didn't have a big group of people to eat with and a lot of time there was just silence when eating. His parents loved each other but they bickered and his father would never show appreciation to his mother. Goku was the exact opposite of his father. The all laughed and had fun. Something that was completely rare in his house unless it was only him and his mother at the table.

He loved his mother so dearly. Everything about her was wonderful. She would find time to play with him or show him some of the new things she was working on. They would laugh and watch movies. She was still even able to get into tickling matches with him but it seemed that if Vegeta would come in the feeling in the house would change. He would have fun but it seemed like it would hurt him to have too much fun. Trunks put blame on his past. That was the only thing he could think of. His mother could get into bad moods but they weren't anything compared to her husband.

It made Trunks feel excited to know that he was so going to have a brother or sister. He watched the way that Gohan had treated Goten all these years and he was thrilled to know that he was going to get the chance to be an awesome big brother. He would finally have someone to play with when he got bored at home and wasn't allowed to leave or if his best friend wasn't allowed to play. Soon his loneliness at home will end and maybe, hopefully his father would change some too.

"Trunks? Hello…do you want a bite?" Goten was saying holding a rice ball in his left hand and waving his right in front of Trunks' face.

"Oh, sure thank you." Trunks said with a snap as he came out of his thoughts. The rest of the table was in conversation about Gohan and Videl's future plans.

"I didn't mean to stop you from thinking but I'm so bored. They are having grown up talk, hehe. I just wanted to talk with you but you seemed to be in some deep trance."

Trunks scratched the back of his head. "Yeah, I'm sorry Goten. So are there any new dinosaurs around here to play with? I'd really love to get away for a while and…"

"So what do you think about your mom and dad having another baby Trunks?" Gohan asked down the table.

"I'm really excited! I can't wait to have a little brother to play with!" Trunks said with enthusiasm.

"But you know it could end up being a sister too?" Videl added with a little giggle.

"I don't think it will be." Trunks said confidently. "I mean all of us are boys so far, so I bet its going to be a brother. Then I can be a big brother like Gohan is to Goten!" Everyone at the table laughed and Gohan turned all red in the face from the praise he got from Trunks.

"It would be weird to see a girl Saiyan, I've never seen a female." Goku added. "There was Raditz, my brother, and Nappa. Besides from Vegeta and I there aren't any other pure blooded Saiyans and neither of us have had a girl, so it could be true that girls are rarer with Saiyans." He added with a shrug. "Who knows."

"I still cannot believe they are having another child. I wouldn't want to be pregnant again and she is older than me." Chi-Chi chimed in. "That is going to take a huge toll on her body. I don't care how much she says she's in shape. I think that it should be Gohan and Videl having a child now. Not them."

Both Videl and Gohan went bright red when this was said and the subject went back onto them. Trunks and Goten both nodded and slowly moved out of their chairs and went for the door. Right as they got to the door they heard Chi-Chi, "Where do you boys think you are going?"

They stopped dead in their tracks and looked at each other out of the corner of their eyes trying to decide which one would talk. They turned around in sync with each other and started to say at the same time. "We were just going outside for a bit."

"And you two don't think you have to help with the dishes?" Chi-Chi retorted while the boys both looked down while their shoulders dropped as well.

"Chi-Chi, how about I help you with those dishes? I think the boys deserve to go out and play some. Its been a while since Trunks and Goten have been together." Goku jumped in. He winked at the boys quickly when they looked up at him and he gestured them to leave quickly.

"Thanks Dad!" "Thanks Goku!" They again chimed together and they were off. There was no way they were going to stay a moment later to watch the argument between the two over the dishes.


Back at the Brief's house, Bulma had decided she was done for the day and started to wander around the house. She knew Trunks had been working on something, and it was for her so she let her curiosity take her up to Trunks' room. She opened the door slowly and walked in. The smoke had stained the ceiling above the mess that lay on the table in the corner.

Upon closer inspection she noticed that he had crossed a few things wrong which had made the pressure inside the compent explode. It looked as if he tried to set up something for hovering purposes but she really couldn't tell what it was he had been working on. She was pretty impressed on what he had though. He had a containment vessel that had special transporting tunnels leading out to create a base that surrounded the main engine part. He had managed to put all of this together by himself and Bulma could tell he had taken apart several other things to see how it worked before he put this together.

She saw the paper that he must have had the blue prints drawn out on but it was scorched in the explosion and the only thing she saw written on the paper was "baby surprise". She smiled to herself knowing that her twelve year old son was figuring out how to build his own creations and no one had pushed him to do it. On top of this he was twelve and he had almost figured out how to make his own hovering invention. Some of the build was the same as her previous devices but he had tweaked it some.

Picking up the little piece of paper of what was left of his blue prints, she decided to go back down to her lab and see if she had any extra supplies. She tapped the little paper with Trunks' super neat handwriting on it to the board that she had pictures of her men on. She smiled brilliantly as she stared at her board. She never really thought she'd ever settle down or have kids. She was always so busy, but she loved that it all changed because she wouldn't have it any other way. Those two boys were the best thing in her life and she couldn't wait for the new little one to show up.


"So Trunks, what made you want to come see me?" Goten asked as they sped off towards their hideout.

"My dad." Trunks said simply as they started to close in on the Cliffside their cave was located in.

"Yeah he can be kinda mean sometimes, huh? But he is badass though." Goten chuckled.

"I guess you can say that. I think just he shouldn't be so pushy about me training. I do my daily training but I don't want to do any of the extra stuff anymore. I really like working on stuff like my mom and there's no threat to us. I don't know I just had to get away from home."

Landing on the platform that was created outside of the entrance to their cave, Goten looked at Trunks. "I see." The walked in and sat down on their chairs they had stashed.

Sighing Trunks decided to try to look for something different to talk about. He had left home so he didn't have to think about it. He picked up a rock and threw it into the wall and it penetrated about an inch in. Goten figured that was the end of the conversation which he was fine with so he picked up a pebble and threw it at the wall also. His went much deeper in to the wall. The two started a contest to see who could do the most damage with the rocks.

After a while they had run out of rocks, so they went to inspect their work. "Haha, I think I beat you Trunks!"

"There is no way you beat me! Look at that crater I made, you just have more little holes. Doesn't mean you did more."

"Yes it does! All the spots go way deeper than yours do."

"That doesn't mean anything. Mine obviously looks worse than your stupid worm holes."

"You don't have to be mean Trunks."

"I'm not being mean, I'm being honest. It looks like a worm decided to make tunnels. Mine looks like pure destruction."

"Yea, well I'll show you destruction" Goten said with a slight smirk and then threw a ki blast at Trunks. He deflected it and exploded on the ceiling, causing the cave they were in to shake. The boys looked at each other and flew out of the cave.

"Smooth Goten. Now you've ruined our hideout."

"I didn't do it. You're the one who reflected the move into the ceiling. You could have hit it out the front."

"Whatever. You can't blame me for your unintelligent decision to throw a ki blast at me."

"Well what was I supposed to do?"

'Wow my dad is right, he really isn't that clever.' Trunks thought to himself before he smirked the same evil smirk Vegeta would display before pulling some trick move. "Dodge!" He screamed as he charged a ki blast and threw it at Goten.

Goten moved to the right of the blast just in time. "What was that for Trunks?" He whined slightly.

"Really Goten, you are gonna whine? Come on let's go!" Trunks said as he backed up and charged and went super.

"What?" Goten looked confused. Then another ki blast flew past him. "Trunks, what's the matter?"

Trunks didn't say anything but his energy surged greatly. It was almost thrilling to him to feel that much power go through him. He really hadn't felt his energy like that since they fought with Buu four years ago. "Come on Goten." He yelled down. "Come fight me!"

"But I really don't want to Trunks."

"Come fight me now!" As he screamed he felt his energy explode again. He was starting to get angry with Goten. Usually that is what they did. They would fool around and then spar to settle who won the agreement. Why was he refusing this time?

Suddenly Goku and Gohan appeared. Goku had used instant transmission to teleport the two there. They were floating between Goten and Trunks. "Hey what's going on here?" Goku asked authoritatively looking over Trunks who was still raising his power level as they all floated there.

This was it, another parent budding into his business. Why it upset him so much he did not know but it was driving him crazy. "It's none of your business." Trunks snapped and turned his back and crossed his arms.

Gohan decided to move closer to Trunks. "Hey buddy, what's the matter? Come on you know you can talk to me." He hovered around to the direction Trunks was looking and gave him a smile.

"Like you really care. I know you two just came because I powered up." Trunks spat back in a rude tone.

Gohan didn't back down but actually moved close to Trunks and spoke very quietly. "How about I make the other two leave and you and I can sort this out. One on one, I challenge you." Gohan winked at Trunks.

Trunks felt that Gohan must understand what was going on, so he gave a slight nod and took control of his power. He lowered it and floated down to the coast while saying, "Fine, I'll be waiting down there."

Gohan went back over to the other two, "I think Trunks is having some pretty big issues at home and he just needs to work them out. I'm going to stay here with him for a while. If you feel our levels go up, don't bother coming."

All Goku did was nod, but Goten gave Gohan a hurt look. As if saying, but I'm the one who is supposed to help my friend out not you. Gohan ruffled Goten's hair in return of the look and said, "Don't worry little guy, I'm sure everything is okay. He just needs to let off some steam. You'll probably go through the same thing soon too. It's all part of growing up."

In a flash the two were gone and it left Gohan and Trunks alone. Gohan slowly approached Trunks. "Well, do you want to talk first or fight?"

Trunks wasn't facing Gohan but from what Gohan could tell, Trunks must have shed a few tears because he was looking down and he reached one of his hands up to his face before turning around.


Vegeta was still in the Gravity Room punishing the robots with attack after attack. He had succeeded in destroying one of the four robots which he knew Bulma would love to know. He figured as long as he still had one to battle he wouldn't waist his or her time buy hunting her down to complain. At least he wouldn't yet.

He was still confused as to why his son would just up and leave him like that during their training. Maybe he wasn't ready to be pushed into being a warrior. He had always seemed eager to be as strong as him before but now his motives had changed. 'Whatever, I don't care what that brat wants or doesn't want.'

Suddenly Vegeta just stopped. 'Was that?' He shook his head, 'There's no way that was him'. He started to engage with the robots but felt the surge come again. It was his son, but why would he be charging his levels up like that? Vegeta shut everything off instantly and took off out of the Gravity Room. He didn't like how Trunks' energy felt, something definitely wasn't right.

As he sped off in the direction, he noticed that he was with Son family. Was something going on that he didn't know about? He took off even faster and then collided with something in the air.

"Damn it Kakorot! What the hell are you doing?"

"Stopping you from going any farther."

"Why? I'm allowed to go see what's going on with Trunks. He is my son." Vegeta said as he clenched his hands in anger.

"I really think you should let Gohan try to settle this first. Trunks seemed to get extremely mad when I tried talking to him but when Gohan did he calmed down."

"You better watch your tongue jerk. I might just have to blast you if you are saying that I'm not able to handle my own son."

"Waoo." Goku said waving his hands. "That's not what I'm saying at all Vegeta. I just think Trunks is going through his awkward stage and he doesn't want to deal with us grown-ups."

Vegeta didn't say anything. He was pissed. He left his training because he was worried about his son. He didn't want anything to happen to him again, but now here was this over-grown buffoon saying that Gohan was handling the problem Trunks was having. While Vegeta did have a little more faith in Kakorot's eldest son than Kakorot himself, he would much rather handle the situation on his own. Rubbing his forehead frustrated to no end. "Fine, I'm going home." And with that he bolted back to where he was before.

When he landed, he saw Bulma walking outside by the garden she had started earlier in the year. She looked like she as in deep thought so he approached her. He noticed that her looks had changed slightly. He couldn't put his fingers quite on what was different but her form was starting to change due to the pregnancy. Last time he had left when she was pregnant and only saw her several times. The only image he held of her when pregnant with Trunks was when her stomach was budging from her body. Obviously it was too soon in the pregnancy for her stomach to be showing anything at just under three months but her body had started taking subtle changes in.

"Hello" Was all he could think of saying.

She spun around, "Hello Vegeta. Where did you head off to?"

"It was nothing. What are you doing out here?"

"Oh I'm just taking a break. I really just wanted to get outside. It's so beautiful outside that I figured I'd have a walk around. I was a little worried though when I noticed you were gone too. I figured you left again."

"Why would you think that woman?" Vegeta said as he bent down to the flowers and picked the yellow Gerber daisy out.

"Well you did flip out when I was pregnant with Trunks. You knew before I told you but once I confirmed what you feared, you left. You didn't tell me where you were going or even if you were going to come back. I guess that fear came back when you were just missing from your training and I didn't know where you went to." Bulma replied, slight embarrassed that she would even be thinking that.

Vegeta turned to Bulma and gave her the flower he had picked. She blushed when she took it from him with both hands. He put his hand on her cheek, "I thought I proved to you several years ago that I wasn't going to leave you. I thought you understood what I did then. We are together, and I will do anything to make sure it stays there way." He leaned in and kissed her lightly. "Don't doubt me again, got it woman?" He teased lightly and then let go of Bulma's body.

"I'm sorry. I'll make sure I don't doubt you again, your highness." She laughed a little and put the flower on her ear. "I love you Vegeta." She leaned in and gave him a kiss.

Vegeta blushed just slightly and mumbled, "Love you too."

After a silent moment, Bulma decided to bring up another subject. "So I was thinking, that maybe Trunks is ready to have his own lab or at least a work station. He really seemed like he knew what he was doing up in his room but he made a little mistake. That way if he wants to work on it again he can go to the lab and not destroy everything in his room. Of course he wouldn't be your son if he didn't destroy his whole room and then some." She then nudged Vegeta's arm.

"That reminds me. One of your lousy robots broke earlier today." He replied with a smirk.

"But of course you did. Bring it down to the lab later, so I can find time to fix it."

They walked over to the little pond they had in the yard and sat down on the bench looking out over the water. The lily pads had bloomed and the ducks were out floating in the water. Bulma leaned sideways onto Vegeta's shoulder and he sighed. He didn't particularly like sitting and staring over the water, but doing it for her was an exception.
