-Bulma, UNKNOWN Planet-



Bulma woke with a start.  She was sweating from the heat.  It was then she noticed she was in a pod.  –How did I get here?  I don’t remember…-  The last thing she could recall was that she had just finished the last line of code on the newly created computer virus.  She remembered seeing her brother smile back at her and then nothing.



Bulma looked around the pod and noticed that half of the nav. system had been destroyed and there were flashing numbers, coordinates.  -If the flashing coordinates are correct, I’ve made it to the preprogrammed destination. But, where am I?-  She opened the hatch to the pod and stepped out into the night.



The night on this new world was beautiful.  The light from the stars bathed the landscape in an iridescent glow and made the nighttime landscape appear in a range of light and dark purples.  I was what she would have imagined a Garden of Eden to look like with its unspoiled terrain.



She looked back into the pod and took out all of the encapsulated supplies. _Why so many?-  She asked herself.  It was then she noticed a flashing green button signaling that she had a message.  She pressed the button and listened while she finished gathering anything of use from the pod and encapsulating it all except the pod.



Zarbon’s voice was what she heard.  He was out of breath as he spoke.  “Bulma I know you don’t understand, but I had to send you away.  They would have destroyed you.  They found out about everything because they caught Keif before he could upload the virus to their mainframe.  They tortured him and Keif named only you as a conspirator.  Frieza didn’t know of my involvement until Dodoria caught me sending you into space.  I’m probably dead now, but don’t worry.  You’re not alone.  Vegeta will find you.  I’m sure of it.



The planet that I’ve sent you to is uncharted.  You have all you need in those capsules.  You’ll be safe now, Suri.  My job as your big brother… unfortunately must end here.”
 She could hear the smile in his voice and imagined his warm amber eyes smiling at her, and then the message ended.



“I love you, Emwi.”  She whispered quietly in grief.  



Bulma was staring at the capsules in her hands.  She thought of how the last person to hold them before her was Zarbon, her brother.  She took one final look at the interior of the pod before encapsulating it.  She stored them in her bodysuit and then took to the sky.




-Vegeta, Planet Masone-



Vegeta had been sent to search for Bulma and as he searched her purged for the emperor.  It had been months since he had seen her last.  He knew for certain that she was alive.  He could feel it through their yet completed bond.  He wondered if only having half a bond with her would be able to track her location.  Had the bond been completed with her reciprocating his bite and sealing the bond, they would be drawn to one another like magnets; the pull would only get stronger as time went on.



Vegeta could feel her there at the back of his mind but he could determine where she was or her thoughts.  –I will find you, Onna.-  He needed to come up with a plan to find Bulma and not lead Frieza to her.  –The onna is strong.  She is capable of taking care of herself.-  He thought as a unrecognized emotion flitted through his mind, worry.




-Bulma, UNKNOWN Planet-

Bulma had made herself at home on this unnamed planet.  She had not run into any sentient life forms since her arrival some months ago.  That thought in mind Bulma could help but feel more alone.



She had set up residence in a cave located in dense forest, so should someone intrude they would have a hard time finding her.  She spent her days tinkering with her disabled pod and searching out for signs of humanoid life.  Life on this rock was dull.  –Thanks, Emwi!-  She mentally cursed form her position in a large hardwood tree.  This place was great for about a month with all of its beauty and un-building- marred scenery.  It was like most vacation spots, ‘A great place to visit, but you wouldn’t want to live here’.  She then let out a sigh.  She missed Zarbon, but more so, she missed Vegeta.  She wondered if he felt the same.  Well it wasn’t as if they were ‘in love’ when they decided to become mates.  It was purely physical, wasn’t it?  Her depressed thoughts vanished when amorous thoughts of her mate crept in.  She imagined he a reunion between them would be between them.  Would he take her where they stood when they found one another?  Would he kiss and hold her and tell her how much he missed her?  -No.  Not likely.-  She thought with a smile.  –The first option was more plausible than the other.-



Bulma was pulled out of her daydreams by the long awaited sound of prey.  Her animalistic instincts kicked into high gear when she found herself hunting for her meals.  She’d found herself from time to time unconsciously using all her senses in the hunt.  She had become the top predator in what was now her domain after eighteen months.  The first few months she found herself barraged with all sort of super predators either trying her out as prey or challenging her for territory.  In the end she came out on top with only minor cuts and scrapes in the worst cases when they caught her unaware.



Now, with her instincts honed and territory claimed she was top predator.  Not even scavengers would venture into her domain.  It had become too quiet on her hunts.  The only real reason she took the predators on past necessity was out of boredom.  How sad was it that bullying monster was the only real entertainment she had.



She zeroed in on her prey and readied her body to intercept.  She was about to spring when some huge blur of a beast, from out of nowhere, burst through the underbrush and captured her prize.  –Oh, no you don’t!-  She mentally screamed but verbally snarled.



She lunged and kicked the beast in the side sending it into a large towering tree, breaking it in half.  She crouched herself for attack as she place herself between her intended kill and the offending beast.  She bared her teeth and snarled fiercely to ward the other predator off.  



Quickly with feline grace the beast was up and facing her.  It matched her stance and met her snarls with growls.  The beast’s tail was puffed and lashing violently behind it.  Suddenly the only growls and snarls that could be heard came from Bulma.  The creature in front of her in front of her stood to its full height and seemed cowed like a less dominant animal in front of its Alpha.



Bulma was stunned to silence, but didn’t relinquish her guarded stance before the downed prey.



“I’m sorry.  I didn’t know this area was taken.”  The creature said as if embarrassed. It rubbed the back of its head with a lopsided smile on its face as its stomach growled loudly.  He laughed sheepishly.  “Let’s start over.  Hi, my name is Kakarott.  Are you going to eat that?”
