Chapter 6 – Harsh Words
Punch, kick, punch, kick, punch, kick. It was all 18 and Chichi could do with zero results. Launch watched them try hard and was getting frustrated watching the same result! 18 was getting angry! How could this thing be happening to her! She was a goddamn android! Chichi also was getting angry! She was really trying to break out of the bunker but no luck.
'Rrrrrrrrrr! Nothing!' Chichi yelled
'This is stupid! Let's face it we're stuck here until the guys get here!'
'That's if they don't die in the process!' Launch whimpered as she feared for Tien, Chichi looked to her and sighed and crouched in front of her.
'Hey look it'll be okay, we just need to have faith! We know them well enough to know they'll make it here and beat Tao's sorry behind!' Chichi smiled softly as Bulma huffed
'Yeah! And is that before or after they walk into a trap and get zapped by whatever secret weapon?' Bulma huffed as Chichi looked at her, she still felt tension, for what though?
'UGH! I can't just sit here and do nothing!' 18 Yelled and kept punching the void as Bulma rolled her eyes
'Forget it! Those walls are not budging!' Bulma yelled
'Yeah well you can sit there and give up if you want to! But I refuse to just wait and find out if Krillin walks into a trap! So I need To… Break …..This… Bunker!' 18 yelled between punched on the bunker walls as suddenly the girls heard foot steps and then came face to face once again with the Meta, who then opened the door and entered the room!
All the girls stood up and faced him. Bulma stood behind 18 as Chichi kept her fists clenched in case he tried anything as Launch whimpered but then sneezed to her feisty blonde side and looked at the punk in front of her and grinned
'I'm not afraid of some mute! This will teach you to kidnap us!' Launch then fired the gun at the Meta who simply caught the bullet in his hand and crush it! Making the girls gasp and whimper.
Launch wasn't gonna let that intimidate her! She then moved towards the Meta and squared against him
'Launch…..' Chichi warned
'I'm not scared! He's just here to intimidate us! But I'm telling him that I am not afraid! So why don't you go sign that to your master huh Pal? With this message… tell him…. He can suck my….' Before she could finish her sentence, the meta had grabbed Launch by her throat and lift her off the ground and began to choke her!
'SHIT!' 18 Yelled as She tried pulling the meta's arm off Launch's neck! Chichi also ran to help.
'LET GO OF HER!'
'LAUNCH!' Bulma called out as the meta watched them all and simply released Launch making her drop to the floor as Launch scooted away from the psycho soldier as Chichi tended to her! 18 stood in front of her friends as the meta simply growled at them and left the room, leaving the girls to take in what just happened.
Launch coughed and wheezed from the choke hold as 18 sighed understand how dire their situation was, chichi sat Launch on the bed.
'Just breath!' Chichi ordered
'He's…..so….strong!' Launch breathed as Bulma huffed
'Of course he is! So the last thing we needed you to do is piss him off! Now he may just wanna kill us for fun! You idiot! You couldn't swallow your pride for one minute!' Bulma yelled
'Your blaming me!?' Launch asked
'Nobody else challenged him! You're the lunatic with a gun!'
'Give her a break Bulma, any of us would have done the same! I know I would of' Chichi said
'Yeah that doesn't surprise me!' Bulma said in a low tone as Chichi looked up at her and frowned
'What's that supposed to mean?' Chichi asked
'Nothing!'
'No you meant to say something there! What did you mean?' Chichi asked getting up to face Bulma
'I'm just saying, Launch isn't the only Hot head in this room, if she hadn't tried to do something as stupid as squaring against a super soldier, i wouldn't be surprised if you did instead!'
'You know what? Ever since we left for this trip you have been on my ass and I'm sick of it!'
'Maybe I have good reason!'
'Oh Yeah!?' Care to share!?'
'The only thing you know what to do is scream at people and hit them! And where has that lead you? either nowhere or dead! Look at Majin Buu!'
'Says the woman who slapped a God! Don't stand there and say I am the only person in this bunker with a temper!'
'At least I can control mine! You always screech at everyone! Its remarkable Goku hasn't gone deaf!'
'At least Goku doesn't ignore me! I've never known Vegeta to ever do as you say!'
'Ugh you are so annoying!'
'Where has this Come from Bulma!?'
'Like you don't know!?'
'No I actually don't! so why don't you please elaborate!?' Chichi huffed as Bulma thought about all she wanted to tell this bitch and now it was time! Better now than never.
'You are literally the most irritating woman on this earth! Or even the universe! You make your kids study all the time when they could be doing so much more for this planet but god forbid if they flunk in any subject at school!'
'There is nothing wrong with giving your children an education, I know how strong they are but strength is only a part of a person, there is room for more. I only want them to remember that!'
'And yet you made Gohan stay behind a closed door with a book in his face!'
'I don't see this being your concern! How I raise my kids is my business! Its not like I'm telling you how to raise yours, but if you have no issue with sending your kids to fight some mystery alien when you have no idea how much of a threat they appose then you go right ahead, but don't think that every other parent wants to send their child out into danger!'
'You just don't have faith in your kids that they would be okay! I believe in them! Why can't you!?'
'I do have faith in them! In Goku and all of our friends combined!'
'Yeah like I actually believe that!'
'Where is this Coming from Bulma? you have never said these things before!'
'Its always been there chichi I just never said it!' Bulma yelled
'That's really nice(!)'
'Well you asked, you are so irritating its remarkable I have put up with you for so long!'
'That's funny considering you invited me along for this so called vacation! I was perfectly happy to bow out but nooooo! You insisted I come along!'
'I only did that cause these two were pestering me to invite you! I would have been perfectly happy to leave you behind!'
'No you didn't! the only reason you dragged us along is so you can brag about how you supposedly won an award! This whole trip is all about you!'
'Well yeah considering it was ME that won!'
'And Yet you didn't! It was a Trap! And look at that! We are now trapped in a energy absorbing, ki covering Bunker, trapped by a psycho soldier and a man who wants to kill our nearest and dearest!'
'Like I don't know that! I tell you what, if I had said no to you coming at least this bunker would be more quiet without your god forsaken squawking!'
'Yeah well that Would have suited me just fine! I would be at home waiting for Goku to come back!'
'The only reason he would come back is just so he can have some food! Or to see his kids or his friends, you are the least of his goddam priorities'
'Oh I and I suppose you know everything there is to know about my relationship!'
'I've known Goku for many years and trust me sweetie! You would be at the bottom of his list!'
'You may have known him for years Bulma, But I have been married to him! Don't think you can begin to fathom what happens between us!'
'I bet all you do is nag, nag, nag, nag and NAG!' Bulma huffed
'Oh and I suppose it's all sunshine and rainbows in your relationship?! Seriously, I bet Vegeta is pleased to get away from the likes of your constant complaining!' Chichi huffed as that struck a nerve!
'YOU DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT MY MARRIAGE!'
'And you Know nothing of mine! Goku and I love eachother! I know and he knows it!' Chichi huffed
'Guys will you just knock it off!? We shouldn't be fighting about something so petty!' 18 interrupted
'Tell her that!' chichi pointed
'Your husband doesn't love you! he never has! He married you on a promise!' Bulma huffed as Chichi frowned as the other 2 gasped! That was harsh!
'Bulma!' Launch frowned
'You know nothing about me and him! We love each other!'
'You honestly believe that? You think he actually loves you? then you are more stupid than I realised! I have known him far longer and you know what? You are nothing to him! You're a interference in his training and he only keeps you around for you cooking or something to fuck! You mean absolutely nothing to him and its laughable that you actually think that he cares for you or your marriage is based on anything but love! He doesn't know love! He never knew! You just told him and he went along with it as if it was a chore! What you have is not love! Its you fulfilling some stupid wish you had since you were a kid and trapped him into it just because you could! You live a crazy daydream world where you believe you come from a happy family when actual fact, he couldn't get any further away from it. I mean he has to go to another universe to get away from you're your obsessive nagging and screeching it makes me feel sorry for him! The only joy he could ever possibly feel is when you are six feet under! Because i would bet my entire fortune that there is no way in this universe that he would wish you back! NO ONE WOULD!' Bulma screamed in her face as Chichi's face went pale, and her fists shook. She held back her tears to not show weakness as she looked down at the ground. Bulma took a breath and evaluated all that she had just said. She had never said it before! And now that she had…. Was it true?
'Chi?' Launch called out as Chichi didn't answer, she moved away from Bulma as 18 and launch looked at her concerned for what was going on through her mind. Chichi then went into the corner and sat on the ground crossed legged and closed her eyes. Her aura let out an orange glow, she went into meditation. She blocked out the world around her. It was probably for the best, for now.
'You happy now?!' 18 Frowned at Bulma who looked at chichi, feeling conflicted about what she had just said
'I…. I….' Bulma stuttered
'Real nice Bulma' Launch huffed and sat on the bed away from everyone as 18 moved away from Bulma to and slumped down against the wall. Bulma stood between the 3. She said what she wanted to say, but did it feel good? No! Did it feel right? No! But despite that, she couldn't help how she was truly feeling.
Ouch! How awkward huh? I bet everyone is gonna be like WTF?! But not to worry. I'll be back with chapter 7 soon.
Penelope out ;)
