Chapter 7
Bulma woke up groggy yet not in pain. She blinked surprised and gritted her teeth as she moved it but there was no need to as she could move it without pain. She took her sling off and moved in all the ways she could move her shoulder and looked at it in shock.
' How can my shoulder be healed, I should if been in that sling for months.'
She sat up feeling full and strong and she had an idea of why she felt this way. She spent years with the Z warriors and they described how sensu beans made them feel.
'Did someone gave me a sensu bean?' Bulma pondered curious
She wondered who gave her the Sensu bean though, she walked through her house seeing Yamacha was still around, He watched over Trunks who was playing in the floor. Trunks turned his head to her and ran to her and she picked him up.
" Bulma what are you doing? " Yamacha yelled shock "
Your shoulder..."
Bulma smiled sweetly as she moved her arm around to show him it was fine.
" It's better." Bulma replied gently
Yamacha seemed shock and she knew it wasn't him who gave her the bean.
" How? " Yamacha replied shocked
" I have no idea, but maybe someone gave me a sensu bean." Bulma replied shrugging
Trunks looked to his mother as he brightly and vocally yelled
" Daddy was here the other day."
Bulma smiled at her son then to Yamacha who's gave her a look that showed it was true.
" Really? What was he here for?" She asked curious
Bulma thought maybe she knew why he was here, but doubt plagued here mind after all he has let her and Trunks fall, she remembered littler after the fall, all she remembered was Future Trunks concerned white face and being taken home by Yamcha.
" He took me to bed." Trunks happily replied
" Is that all?" Bulma questioned toward Yamcha
Yamacha got up and guided her to her lab.
" No they left you the android blue prints, Your father been looking at them so maybe he's done something about these but he didn't want me to disturb him in the lab." Yamacha explained
Bulma looked over the blue prints briefly and figured her father must have made up for her being out of action.
"I'll catch up with him later to find out what happened."
She smiled at Yacmha though grateful for his help around her home and for looking after Trunks when he didn't need to.
" Thank you for all your help Yamacha, but shouldn't you get back to the fight?" Bulma asked curious
" I got hurt too, I thought my time was better spent here with little Trunks." Yamcha replied awkwardly
Bulma eyes changed as he looked her with a familiar look, but before he could say what he wanted to say to her. Bulma seemed to look beyond him and he sighed knowing she didn't want to look in his eyes and face his feelings.
" That man left you to die Bulma, when you fell you died, if not for Future Trunks… " He called out annoyed
Bulma grasped as she gripped Trunks and slapped Yamacha.
" Don't you think I know he didn't act .. None of you did.. She replied upset "
" Well why don't you ask him why he didn't act then? I sense him nearby."
" Fine I will." She snapped
She walked away holding Trunks and she would ask Vegeta that question.
" Trunks where is your father? " Bulma asked gently
Trunks focused and pointed at the direction of his father, Bulma saw him coming toward the house with broken amour and he saw her furious eyes
" You and I need to talk now." She yelled out in frustration
" Make it quick." Vegeta snapped in response
Bulma hated having Trunks hear her yell at Vegeta and have him around while they argued.
" Why did you leave me and Trunks to fall to our deaths, I mean I held Trunks in my arms to keep him safe so his body wouldn't impact, but Yamacha told me I… " She cried
Vegeta saw tears run down her eyes and he replied.
" I couldn't react.. I tried too but my body didn't move." Vegeta replied in his surly manner
She held Trunks in shock, she wouldn't of brought him to hear this but she needed to hear it herself.
" I see.. I didn't think you where that heartless Vegeta, I thought.. I guess you think your better off without me and Trunks in your life huh?"
She moved her her hair and went to walk off.
" If I cared so little I wouldn't off gave you the sensu bean to heal your shoulder."
" So it was you." Bulma replied softly
She turned to face him again, she put Trunks down on the floor in shock.
" I had to do something to make up for my lack of action, I almost lost you both because I couldn't act and I will continue to act so that Future Trunks comes from doesn't happen. "
Bulma put trunks down.
" Go see your uncle Trunks, me and your father need to talk alone." Bulma called to her son gently
Bulma put Trunks down on the floor, Trunks saw his mother's serious face and ran of to the house.
" Vegeta...I saw that look in your eyes it told me how you felt, I've said some awful things. However when this is all over we need to talk where we stand, I'll allow you to live here and stay with Trunks but for us.. I need to think about us." Bulma replied uneasy
He wondered what she meant.
" Stop speaking in riddles woman.." Vegeta snapped gently
" I don't think I want to have anything to do with you Vegeta, you won't be my lover, husband, nothing, you just he Trunks father. However maybe just maybe I want you to be all that." Bulma admitted lightly
She yelled in anger.
Vegeta said nothing and walked past her.
" Fine if that's what you wish for then that how it will be, however I came for more amour as me and Future Trunks are going to train at that Kami 's lookout. " Vegeta explained strongly
Huh what about the Androids?" Bulma asked confused
" Ah yes I let this new foe Cell absorb them, did your weakling tell you nothing? You were unconscious a long time it must have taken a long time for that sensu bean to react to your injures.. You must have been hurt worse then you thought."
" Tell me what happened I want to help somehow." Bulma begged in desperate
" Fine while I'm here I'll catch you up. It's not like you won't have a project to work on soon, Kakkrot's brat is bringing you Android Sixteen while he can." Vegeta replied in defeat
" Oh an Android to exam." Bulma excitedly replied
As the two walked Vegeta told her of how her father, while she was unconscious, made the detonator to destroy the Androids, but Krillin refused to blow up 18 and destroyed the device. Bulma tutted at that, but Vegeta told her what happened with ell and how he allowed him to become prefect Cell and they had a weak to train.
Bulma froze in shock.
" Vegeta how could you do that? Did you even think about me or Trunks while you let Cell make such a deal, what if you lose then what? "
" Then simply get off Earth with your technology."
She shakes her head.
" How can you say you care for me and Trunks when you your so selfish? Just take your amour and go... I'll bring more soon." Bulma snapped
She walked to her lab as she left Vegeta to his own devices. He left to train and later on in the day Gohan brought 16 and she began to examine the Androids with the plan to make it her back up plan against Cell.
'Just wait and see I'll protect Trunks and this world using my technology. I don't need anyone's help anymore I will survive with Trunks. '
