/ ❯ Temptation Waits ❯ The Battle Of The Gravity Machine! ( Chapter 4 )

DISCLAIMER: I don't own DBZ…I don't own a monkey either…

A/N - OK, I'm glad you all like Lucas the incredibly good-looking elf, he's going to be showing up periodically instead of being in every chapter.

As for the person who told me that I should hurry up and write the lemon you'll just have to wait because I always rush into lemons and this time I'm going to have a nice, steady build up to the lemon, don't worry though the lemon will be coming soon.

***********

"Bitch!" Vegeta muttered as he finished taping some gauze over the red lump on his forehead, he glared in the bathroom mirror at Bulma who was kneeling on the floor picking up piece of what had once been her TV set.

"Bastard!" Bulma muttered right back as she stared, stricken, at the remains of her favourite possession.

Needless to say, when Vegeta had picked himself up off the shower floor he hadn't been a happy camper.

The TV had been the first thing he's destroyed in his rage. Barney and Friends had followed soon after and fragments of the black tape were littered over Bulma's bed.

Of course Vegeta knew that it didn't matter that the tape had been destroyed, the woman had been only too glad to demonstrate that she knew the entire tape off by heart by singing at him at the top of her lungs for an entire two hours.

It seemed that Barney would live on in spirit.

"Did you have to destroy the TV?" Bulma stood up suddenly and glared at him with teary eyes, "Wasn't murdering Barney enough? You had to go ands ruin my TV as well?"

"What would you have used it for woman? We have no other movies." Vegeta turned around to glare right back at her.

"I might have found some more later, or I might have been able to pick up some radio or TV rays…you never know!" She stalked forward and poked Vegeta hard in the chest, "You know, I'm getting just a tiny bit sick of you attitude lately. First of all you try to seduce me, then you go crazy and start seeing incredibly good looking elves and then to top it all off you go rank kill both Barney and my TV!"

"I have an attitude problem? Your the one who played that video over and over even though you knew I hated it, you're the one that gave me this lump on my head and you're the one that wont let me seduce you! I'm trying to keep myself under control woman but it's getting harder!" Vegeta broke off and growled,

Bulma bit her lip and looked him, suddenly serious, "Now, when you say, 'it's getting harder…'" Vegeta gave a frustrated howl and let the room, Bulma laughed after him and followed close behind, "Come on, can't you take a joke?"

"No! I have no sense of humour!"

"Sure you do, everyone does."

"No me, I came sense of humour free, guaranteed."

"I've seen you laugh…maliciously maybe, but it was laughter all the same." Bulma quickly moved in front of him, "Can you honestly say that you've never found anything funny?"

"Well…" Vegeta looked thoughtful, then his face darkened again, "No, nothing has been funny. Maybe I might seem to have a sense of humour but I don't!"

"OK, Vegeta, whatever you say." Bulma looked at the floor, "You know you could at least try to get on with me while we're stuck here."

"Woman…" Vegeta seemed about to say something but instead her shook his head, "Never mind. I'm, going to train now so…"

"NO! You are not going to train in this ship! What happens if you blow a hole in it and we all die, huh?" Bulma had suddenly perked up again, "I FORBID IT!"

"Well, can I at least put the gravity machine on…"

"NO! Do you have any idea what would happen to me if you put that on?" Bulma poked Vegeta in the chest again, "If you put it on you'll kill me…"

"No it won't! I can remember you saying that the gravity machine would only affect the main room, not the bedroom. Why don't you want it on?" Vegeta moved up close and grabbed Bulma's finger, which had still been poking into her chest.

"Because I don't want you getting carried away and blasting the two of us to hell! And I don't want to come wandering out here in the middle of the night only to be squished by gravity! Please leave it off."

Vegeta gazed down into her wide and desperate eyes, he felt his stomach tighten with need and everything seemed to slow down around him until he was aware of nothing but the woman staring up at him with those blue, blue eyes.

He could imagine her under him on that bed, her hands tracing his chest as he slowly…

"DON'T GIVE ME THAT LOOK!"

Vegeta blinked again to find Bulma glaring at him again, she slapped him and pulled away, "Don't give me that look ever again Vegeta! Or I'll sing!"

"I'm sorry…it's this damned heat I'm in, if I could stop feeling this way I would, but it's getting worse." Vegeta sighed, "You should go back to your room, you know in case I get carried away again."

"Yeah…I might do that, I'm not scared of you…I just have to finish cleaning up the TV." Bulma bolted to room, peered at him from the doorway then slammed the door shut and locked it.

Vegeta raised his head and slowly a grinch like smile spread over his features. He lightly padded over to her door and as soundlessly as he could he began to melt the door lock, effectively locking Bulma in.

Vegeta's grin widened anymore as he turned back around and walked up to the gravity machine, running a hand over the console, "Computer, 100 times Earth's gravity."

"100 times Earth Gravity commencing."

"Stupid woman." Vegeta marvelled at his own brilliance as he felt the GM start up, as if he'd lose control and throw himself at the woman, he'd just wanted to get her in the bedroom so he could lock it, and it had worked.

But then he was a genius at scams and plots, Bulma hadn't had a chance!

Vegeta dropped to the floor and began to do push ups, working out all his frustrations in a sweaty work out that would have killed a lesser man…or saiyan!

***********

Bulma's eyes widened when she heard the tell tale hum of the GM starting up, she hurried to the door and tried to unlock it, but the handle on the door wouldn't turn, let alone unlock. Bulma leant down and looked at handle, she couldn't see anything wrong but she could smell the smell of melted metal.

"That lying bastard!" Bulma stood up straight again and rapped on the door, "Vegeta! Let me out right this minute! I'm not joking around! If yo don't let me out I'll…I'll…I'll find some way to make you regret this!"

"Really woman? What are you going to do? You don't have you video anymore, and you cant sing forever! I think you'll just have to sit back and wait for me to finish!" Vegeta laughed.

"I'll show him, I'll show him." Bulma clenched her fists and walked to the cupboard where she pulled out the toolbox she had with her, then she walked across the a steel grating in the floor and pulled it up, inside where hundreds of tiny circuit boards, Bulma reached inside and pulled one out, she looked it over then put it back and pulled another one out until she found the one she wanted, she giggled quietly as she pulled out a pair of tiny snake head pliers and an even small screwdriver and began to undo a small black panel on the circuit board, the panel came off, under it a small label was stuck which read;

'GM GRAV CTRL'

"Let's see how Mr. Prince of all saiyans likes it when I break his favourite toy…" Bulma held up the snake heard pliers and was about the twist the tiny wires and cogs in there to pieces when a thought struck her.

She wouldn't break it just yet, she'd play with Vegeta for a little while, make him regret locking her away in here while he trained!

Bulma gingerly began to turn one of the tiny cogs until the digital numbers, which had been set at 100G, went up to 150G.

Bulma giggled began to screw with the gravity, sometime taking it down to 10G before moving it up to 250G and so on.

"You're going to regret breaking my lock Vegeta!" Bulma hissed angrily as she twisted the cog right around to 300G…

*************

Vegeta fell to the floor with a thump as the GM raised the gravity to 300G, "Stupid machine what's wrong with you!" Vegeta tried to stand but he could even lift a finger.

"5 times Earth gravity commencing."

The computer lowered the gravity again and Vegeta slumped to the floor, he'd barely been able to breath in 300G…what the heck was wrong with the machine? Vegeta stood up and made his way to the control, he saw the numbers flash up to 200G again and groaned as the weight increased…

"200 times gravity commencing." Vegeta managed to stand under the force of the gravity and forced himself to lift his arm and more his hand towards the button, his arm muscles bulged under the effort, sweat streamed down his body as the unfamiliar weight became almost unbearable, finally Vegeta's hand reached the button and he was able to push the stop button.

The GM powered down and Vegeta slumped to the floor, breathing hard, his eyes made their way to the woman's door. She'd done that, somehow she's found a way to mess with the controls, well he's how her!

Vegeta stood up and put the gravity down to 2 times Earth's gravity, then he made his way to the woman's door and kicked the door down, the woman was inside with a pair of pliers in her hand and a circuit board.

"Oh-oh…" She looked up and saw him, her eyes widening as Vegeta strode towards her, picked her up, slinging her over his shoulder before he carried her back out to the main room, he dumped her on the ground then re-started the gravity machine at 2 times Earths gravity.

Bulma groaned and tried to move before lying back down, "Vegeta…please…I can barely…breath…"

"Well woman, now you know how I felt when you put the gravity up to 300G, not very nice is it?"

"Sorry…please…let me up!" Bulma closed her eyes and concentrated on forcing herself to breath.

"I will, after you promise not to pull any stunts like that again."

"Ok…I promise."

"And you have to let me train once a day." Vegeta crouched down near Bulma and stroked her hair.

"But…"

"Promise."

"OK…you can train. Please turn it off! Please!" Bulma opened her eyes and was surprised to find Vegeta's face so close to her own.

"One more thing, you have to let me mate with you soon woman…I…I really am finding it hard to be so close to you and not get to have you."

Bulma was silent, "I will not promise you that…I don't want to get hurt after what Yamcha did…but I'll try to be nicer to you…please…let me up."

Vegeta stood up and turned the gravity machine off, Bulma sighed and breathed hard, as if she'd been running a race.

She stumbled to her feet and looked at Vegeta, "I am sorry." She hurried away back to the bedroom.

Vegeta watched her go then pulled out a small pad of paper and made a tick, "Bulma 2 and Vegeta 1…yeah I'm catching her!"
