Chapter 6: Family Vacation

"Bulma, I don't think its healthy dear."

I rolled my eyes as I shifted the phone to my other ear. "Wells, its for the best. Vegeta's job requires him to be up most of the night, so by Trunks and I having the same schedule we can still stay close as a family. Besides I get plenty of work done with less disruptions."

"I still don't agree sweetie. I never see you anymore."

Putting my pencil down. "Trunks and I will come over tomorrow and spend a few hours with you. Ok?"

"Oh sweetie! That's great, we can go do lunch."

"No mom...I will come over tomorrow night."

"Oh, ok, well I guess I'll see you tomorrow."

"Ok mom, love you." I hung up the phone and wiped my face. I felt bad for keeping this secret from the three people I told everything to, well actually to think of it, I really don't talk much to 18 or Chi-Chi anymore. I feel bad, but I guess it will help down the road like Vegeta says. Vegeta, now that's one person I've been avoiding like a wooden stake. He's been grumpier than normal. I looked out to the dark night, it is a lot nicer at night, no annoying phone calls or techs bothering me. I set up a play room for Trunks, that's where he usually stays all night, unless he is hungry.

The next day...

I got Trunks dressed in an outfit my mom bought for him, he really doesn't like the cloths she gets him, but he can deal with it for one night. "Where do you think you two are going?"

I turned to see Vegeta buttoning up his coat. "Like you're keeping me locked up 24/7. I'm going to spend a couple hours with my parents. See you when I get home." I turned and left. 30 minutes later we were at my parents'.

"Bulma! Trunks!" My mom came running out to hug us. She looked concerned at me after the hug. "Bulma you're freezing! Get inside and warm up."

I laughed. "Yes, ma'am."

After a couple hours of talking, Trunks and I got ready to leave. "You two and Vegeta should come over for dinner this weekend. And will you please wear something besides black."

"Black is a great color mom."
"Yes, but you look so lovely in different colors."

"I'll try mom." I picked Trunks up. "As for dinner, we'll have to take a rain check. We are leaving in the morning to go see Vegeta's family. Sort of a family reunion thing or something like that. Sorry mom."

Yawning. "That's ok sweetie." Hugging me and shivering. "Have a fun and safe trip."

"I will mom."

Looking down at Trunks "Now young man, quit growing so much, Grammie won't recognize you when you get back." Trunks just frowned when she gave him a kiss.

After I got home, I saw Vegeta had our bags already to go and was waiting by the front door for us. "Good let's go. The jet is ready. Tarble will have a car waiting when we land." I nodded and we were off.

So far the flight was boring. The windows were blacked out, but my body told me it was light out, so Trunks and I slept the majority of the trip. I woke up about an hour before we landed. Vegeta was just looking out the black window. I got up and walked over to him. "Did you sleep at all?"

He looked up and pulled him onto his lap. "Not very well, you weren't next to me." He kissed my bite mark.

"Well, if you haven't been so grumpy the last few nights, I would have sat next to you."

Vegeta looked back out the window. "When the day comes, it will be our glory."

I looked at him confused. "What are you talking about?"

"Humans..." He laughed. "Humans will end up killing each other off with nuclear weapons and we will be all that's left." Laughing more and getting excited. "We will be the dominant species on this planet and rule all!"

He was starting to scare me. "And what will we do about blood?"

His grin got more evil, if it was even possible. "I've been preparing for that day for a long time. Me and several other vampires have been stock piling blood for decades. Blood last very well after being frozen."

I moved off his lap, into the seat next to him, ok seriously he's my husband and he is scaring me more than ever. Where was this talk coming from and why did he find is so humorous.

After the jet landed we loaded out to see a man standing there holding the car door open for us with a smile. "Hello Mr. And Mrs. Ouji, I hope your flight was enjoyable." Vegeta got in the car without looking at the man.

I smiled as Trunks and I got him. "Thank you." As he closed the door I could smell him, he was human.

The ride to the castle was long and again boring. "So who's castle was it?"

"My grandfather's. He lived and died 500 years before I was born."

"Oh, what side of the family?"

Vegeta looked at me and took at deep breath. "He was my father's father. He was dieing of the plague, that almost claimed my father as well. My mother and grandmother were working there and my mother saved my father, only if he promised to be her's. He agreed and he was changed. The castle has stayed in the family ever since."

As we drove up the mountain road, castle came into view. When we got to the front doors, Tarble and Grey were waiting for us.
