Chapter 2

A sudden change in the methodical beeping of the regeneration tank's heart and brain-wave monitors alerted Vegeta to open his eyes and look across the infirmary towards it. There hadn't been any changes in the saiyan girl's state since the other warriors had left the infirmary several hours before. But now the Saiyan Prince could see her tail lightly swishing back and forth in the tank's healing fluids. It was clear that she had yet to awaken, but he could tell that time was approaching quickly.

He glanced down at his sleeping mate, who lay peacefully on the cot beside him, one hand resting on her still flat stomach. Seeing her like that made Vegeta almost regret having to disturb her. Almost.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"WOMAN, WAKE UP!" With a jerk, Bulma involuntarily did as she was commanded and sat up, looking around startled. Vegeta stood before her, arms in their usual position, an amused smirk plastered on his handsome face. Her anger flared.

"DAMMIT, VEGETA! CAN'T YOU GET ME UP NORMALLY AND NOT SCARE THE SHIT OUT OF ME?!" she screeched at him, making him wince at the blow to his sensitive hearing.

"Well I thought that maybe you would like to know that the brat is beginning to wake up, baka," he shot back sarcastically.

Bulma gritted her teeth and was about to give him another earful for calling her stupid, when his words registered. She looked over at the tank wide-eyed, then hastily stood up and went to the machine. Quickly assessing the information the monitors provided, she came to the same conclusion her mate had.

Suddenly, Goku popped his head into the infirmary. "Hey, you guys! The others were wondering if the girl was awake yet." he said, stepping into the room.

"Not yet, Son-kun, but she will be in a matter of seconds," Bulma told him excitedly. "She's coming to now. I'll go ahead and drain the tank." The blue haired woman pressed a button and the fluids began to rush out to the filtration system hidden underneath the machine. She and the last two remaining, full blooded, male saiyans in the universe watched as the tank emptied and as the newly healed, half grown, apparently saiyan female began to stir. Just as the tank had finished draining, the teenage girl's eyes finally peeked groggily open .

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Jen tiredly opened her eyes and glanced around. Apparently she was in some kind of mechanical chamber and had managed to become completely soaked. Quickly she remembered waking up earlier in here, only then it was filled with that greenish-blue fluid. Her eyes focused forward. The wall in front of her had a large, thick glass window and through it she could see people outside watching her.

Her eyes shot wide open. She knew these three who stared back at her. There was no mistaking them. Spiky, black hair sticking out in several different directions with the characteristic orange gi and goofy grin of the strongest warrior of all time. Similar hair swept up in a flame-like crest that was accompanied by a deep scowl and intense glare, drawing your attention away from the Prince's short stature to focus on his intimidating presence. Long, blue hair with bold, curiously intelligent, darker blue eyes on the face of a pretty young woman that stood a little bit in front of the two strongest warriors in this universe. Yes, there was no mistaking the three most important characters of her favorite anime. BUT WHAT WAS SHE DOING IN THE REALM OF DRAGON BALL Z?!?!?!

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

The four continued to stare at each other for another long moment, before Jen reached up and began removing the oxygen mask and tube from her mouth and the sensors from her temples. Released from her own trance, Bulma quickly pressed another button on the control panel. There was a slight hissing sound, before the tank's door slowly lifted open. Jen still didn't trust herself to speak, so she just slowly stood up, then hastily caught herself on the tank's door frame. Apparently she hadn't regained her balance yet. Bulma hurriedly stepped forward, much to Vegeta's unease, and draped a towel over the girl's shoulders.

"Thank you, Bulma," Jen said, glancing over at the blue haired woman, who stared at her shocked. Suddenly Bulma was pushed aside as Vegeta grabbed Jen by the shirt collar and pulled her the rest of the way out of the regeneration tank. The teenage girl winced as she was held up in the air by the Saiyan Prince.

"How do you know the woman's name, girl?" Vegeta demanded.

"Woah! Take it easy!" Goku said urgently. His prince ignored him.

Jen looked down at him calmly, though inside she had a feeling that he wasn't going to like what she had to say next. "I know all of you, Vegeta."

Goku and Bulma were silently stunned, however Vegeta gritted his teeth and lifted the girl higher. "Answer the question!"

"You…you are the main characters of a television in my dimension," Jen gasped. Vegeta couldn't think of anything to say to that. Bulma could though. She stepped forward and placed a hand gently on the arm holding the girl up.

"Vegeta, set her down. I don't think she's going to do anything," she told her mate calmly. Seeing that she was probably right, the Saiyan Prince reluctantly did as she requested and dropped the girl.

"OWWW!" Jen whined, when a sharp pain shot up her spine as she landed heavily on a foreign part of her anatomy. She reached under herself and pulled out the painful thing she was sitting on. She stared astonished at the long, furry, prehensile tail that lay grasped lightly in her hand, the tip twitching back in forth. "WHAT THE HELLLLLL?!?!"

"Can't you recognize your own tail, baka? Even Kakkarot isn't that stupid." Vegeta smirked.

"HEY!" Goku protested, pouting.

"W…w…why do I have a tail?!" Jen asked shakily, still staring at the appendage in her hand, ignoring the two. Everyone stopped and stared down at her.

"What do you mean? Didn't you have one before? Didn't you know you were a Saiyan?" Bulma asked her.

Jen looked up at her with shocked, deep blue eyes through her spiky, black bangs and shook her head slowly. The room became very, very quiet.

So how do you like it? Don't forget to Review!

Author's Notes: I don't know about you all, but I consider Goku, Vegeta, and especially Bulma the three most important characters of the Dragon Ball universe. Think about it! Without her there would be no show! Why? Because she was the one who started the whole hunt for the dragonballs and invented the Dragon Radar. She flew the Namekien ship to Planet Namek and it was her father's ship that took Goku there. She invented the Gravitron (my word for the gravity machine) that enabled Vegeta to become as powerful as he did and it kept him around until she gave birth to Trunks, who helped save both timelines by the use of her future self's Time Machine. Also she invented the ray that let Vegeta become Super Saiyan 4 in GT, even if that show wasn't created by Akira Toriyama. Oops! Gomen! I got a little carried away there for a second. Alright, I'm done! So anyway, this story is going to be an epic, but I'll be updating every chance I get, so stay tuned. Thank you for all the nice reviews! I really appreciate it! Thanks!
