"Thank you for all of your lovely reviews! Here's a new chapter"

"She doesn't own Dragon Ball Z or anything related to it, besides her OC Lizzy. Now, how about we go out for lunch?"
"Heck yeah! On with the chapter!"
Welcome Back
Elizabeth stared at the image of herself in the mirror. Today was the day they were supposed to leave the chamber. The little girl stood tall and huffed a breath as she tightened the belt of her gi.
"Elizabeth! Let's go!" her father called as he peaked into the room. She turned to him and smiled.
"I'm ready dad" she said as she smoothed her long lavender curls.
"Alright then, remember the promise" he said as he looked down at her.
"I know" the little girl said as she walked up to her father and hugged his leg affectionately.
TIME BREAK
The small family of three stood at the door of the chamber, serious faced and ready. Vegeta was the first to move foreward and opened the door. He stepped out, followed by Trunks and then Elizabeth. When the trio walked onto the white tile of the tower, everyone stared wide eyed at them. Elizabeth noticed Gohan and her grandmother standing near each other and the baby version of her father. Elizabeth shied behind her father's leg, not remembering any of the people except for her grandmother and Gohan.
"Oh my gosh Trunks what happened?" Bulma asked. "I mean you are Trunks right?"
"Uh yeah"
"Wow! You both have grown! Is that a wig. No it's real" Bulma said as she examined both Trunks and Elizabeth. The little girl shied away slightly.
"We were in the hyperbolic time chamber. Inside it was a year but outside only a day passed. That's why we've grown" he explained. "Father and I trained together" he added. Bulma peeked around Trunks and looked at Vegeta.
"Huh/ Vegeta you don't look that different? How come your hair didn't grow?" she asked.
"Papa says that a pure blooded sayians stays the same from the day they are born" Elizabeth said, cutting in for the first time.
"Is that true? How about that" Goku asked from Bulma's side.
"I guess that's why you've never needed a haircut" Bulma said.
"Hey yeah, but I wish I could do something about these split ends" Goku joked.
"Try shampoo" Bulma offered.
"I don't have time to listen to Kakarotts hair problems, but I sure wouldn't mind knowing why you're here" Vegeta commented to his wife. Bulma rolled her eyes.
"Hold on I'll show you" Bulma said as she dug around in her pocket. "Well, this fight with Cell is going to be tough, so I thought you guys could use some new combat suits. And if you stop being a jerk Vegeta, maybe you can have one too" she said as she popped a capsule, leaving a white box on the ground. Everyone (minus Piccolo, Tien and Elizabeth) grabbed one and changed.
"Excuse me, Ms. Bulma" Elizabeth said as she pulled on her grandmother's pant leg.
"Huh? What's up kid?" Bulma asked her.
"Um, none of them fit me, I'm too small" she said, referring to the suits. The little girl twiddled her fingers together shyly.
"That's because I made one just for you" her grandmother said with a wink as she pulled out another capsule and popped that one. Elizabeth looked curiously as the smoke cleared.
"Cool! It's pink! That's my favorite color" Lizzy exclaimed as she picked up the suit that lay on the floor before her.
"I thought you'd like it" Bulma said as the little girl stripped down to her undies and slipped the suit over her. "Wow! It feels really light! Thank you" Lizzy said bowing to Bulma.
"Anything for my future grandkid"
"Look daddy, nana made me a special one" Elizabeth said as she spun around to show her father her new outfit. He smiled down at her.
"You look pretty sweet pea" he told her as he ruffled her long curls she giggled.
"It's like the one I used to wear on Namek, remember dad?" Gohan exclaimed. "A perfect fit."
"So all of these are sayian combat suits?" Trunks asked.
"Well, more or less. I tried to cop Vegeta's as much as possible" she said proudly.
"You did a great job Bulma" Gohan said.
"Why thank you."Bulma said, before pausing. "Hey, aren't you going to wear yours?" Bulma asked Tien and Piccolo.
"I am a Namek, not a sayian and I am not going to dress like one" Piccolo said.
"That's right. I refuse to dress like Vegeta, after all of the horrible things he's done" Tien added, making Vegeta chuckle darkly.
"Aw come on guys. They look good and they fit great too" Goku replied as Vegeta walked over and stood in front of the taller sayian.
"There's no need for you to wear that, you won't even get a chance to use it so why even bother to putting it on" Vegeta taunted as he pulled his glove on.
"Is that because you plan on finishing Cell all by yourself? Well I hope you can pull it off" Goku replied, staring at the Prince who also stared. Vegeta smirked before spinning on his heels and turning in the opposite direction, before taking off into the sky.
"Wait father!" Trunks called, but Vegeta was already gone. He sighed. "I guess that's my cue" he said as he leaned down to Elizabeth and pecked her forehead.
"Promise you'll be safe" she whispered as she stuck out her little pinky to him. He smiled and grasped her finger with his own.
"Promise me, you'll stay here unless I need you" he whispered back. She nodded, as her blue eyes filled with tears. "Good, be safe" he told her and he was off. Elizabeth closed her eyes and smiled, hoping her father would be fine.
So? How was it? I wrote this chapter on literal whim. Anyway, I'm STOKED! Neon Trees, Owl City, and Marron 5 are doing a tour that comes right to my town a couple days after my birthday.
