Review! It's the only thing I ask of you.
Let's get started.
Chapter Seven:Boys of Ashes Looking Right
"Next site?'' Bulma asked. The question waved in the air. It was like rotten fruit no one wants to touch the subject. No one knew if a site was even scheduled.
"No one has done anything. The old man didn't call either." 18 replied. 17 watched his sister carefully. He knew is sister very well.
"18?" 17 was going to get to the bottom of it.
"What, 17?" 18 said, annoyed.
"You know exactly WHAT!" He lower is voice. "Bulma did she tell you what happened at today's site?" He was going to drag it out of 18.
"No, she didn't actually." Bulma responded, she loved when 17 dragged information out of 18 and included her in it.
"18 tell her. She needs to know, she a part of us, she always has." 18 didn't responed. 18 was pay 17 no attention, she was too busy with the fight.
"18 tell her, or I will." 17 threatened.
"Okay! At the site Ashes wanted to fight, but the only wanted to fight me. 17 stepped in and told them not to touch me. There are you satisfied." 18 said quickly.
"Close enough,18." 17 replied.
"Can I get back to the fight?" 18 asked.
"Yeah you can." Bulma told her. Bulma touched her eyebrow, it was still bleeding.
"18, which way is the bathroom?" Bulma asked.
"Straight 3 tables then to your right, down the stairs." 18 was heavily into the fight. Bulma got up and followed 18's directions.
"18, why did you tell her the underground way, there are 2 bathrooms now." 17 whisper.
"I didn't know that. Well she'll get a good look at the old city." 18 told 17 without a care.
"I can't believe we're twins, sometimes." 17 mumbled.
The fight ended. Everyone was up getting food and drinks. No one noticed the man from Ashes, and at that second he was planning to blaze everything and anyone in the UnderGround, but his objective didn't include that.
"The old man told me it was okay to plan a site. What did I tell you about being here." The voice shock 18's ears, she knew who it was. She had to keep her anger level down, she knew the rules. Rule 5: If you don't respect the HIS property then why should he respect yours, meaning all sites should not be done in the UnderGround or The Restaurant. If so, well no one was foolish to conduct a site in the two areas.
"You didn't tell me anything." 18 said calmly. 17 held 18's hand down.
"You're hard headed, I said not to show your face near Ashes, or don't you remember?" He stood behind the twins.
"Nappa get out of here, before I kill you."18 hissed. 17 held her hand tighter, she would lash out any second.
"Kill...will your brother be joining us, because we already know you can't fight by yourself. You have to fight me to kill me. Ah...here we go you can go against Yamcha." Nappa said sacaticly. It was time 17 stepped in.
"Nappa you could fight me, plus this is not a place for a site, you know that. R-5, you do it in here you will see the old man. If you can't fight me, you will not lay a hand on my sister." 17 added. He kept his face away from Nappa's direction.
"Well I'm telling you in advance. Ashes is here, crying is for Mid-Cytes. Keep the children inside." Nappa faded into the crowd.
"18 be smart, we don't have a chance at this present moment. There's nobody here, think. We can re-group and come back." 17 tryed to presuded 18 to leave.
"And leave bulma here!" 18 lashed at her brother. "I not running. Not today 17. I come back to the UnderGround for one day and everybody wants a piece of me. Besides I don't want the boys to know I was here."18 toned her voice down. Why was everyone trying to be like Bardock?
"Your call."17 mumbled as he stood up from his chair and streached."How ya feelin'?" 17 asked his sister.
"Oppressed."18 answered back. Bulma and 17 came up with a system to deside whatever kind of drink 18 had in mind went with her mood.
"A water..."17 got those two words out before 18 could cut him off.
"Yeah and with..." 18 got in her words before 17 could cut her off.
"A lemon twist and ice."They said in unison.
"Wonder twin."18 said with a smile.17 left the table to get the drinks, and 18 sat at the table and waited for Bulma inpatiently.
Meanwhile.
Bulma explored the UnderGround City. She was amazed to see the old crumbled complexs. Many of of the walls were spray painted with ''Mid-Cytes Turf". Bulma wondered how far back did this rivaly really go on between the 3 gangs. She went far into the city forgetting that she had to go to the bathroom. What had her amazed most was that the Red Brick apartments were almost still intact, while other buldings looked like they were set on fire and boarded up.
Bulma walked down the street where the building were mainly Red Brick, she heard foot steps behind her.
"You know with you strange and unusual pigment it makes you a very easy target."The raspy voice almost made Bulma forget where she was. She had to turn around to see who the voice belong to.
"Yeah. I suggest you move out the way of Ashes." The man with the long hair down his back said. When she turned around, she saw Ashes for the first time. There was 7 men, they ranged from short and tall,and their colors were blue and gray. She stood in a stare, not paying attention to the gang of men. She was waiting for the man with the heart stopping voice to speak out again. Her eyes yerned for him to speak again.
"Hello,child do you hear me, are you dead get out of our way." Bulma snapped back from her fantasy world and clenced her fist.
"Yo, I got a name. And a excuse me, would make me revive from the dead."She shot back.
"Do you see we don't have time for your little games. You seem uneducated. There is a site tonight, and if you won't get out of our way then we'll make you." The tall bald headed man said.
"Nappa...we'll go around, there are other ways to go to the front of the sub way." It was his voice.(I LOVE HIS VOICE,lol) He was a little bit shorter then Bulma. He also had over geled hair that look like his hair was held up by strings from a puppet master. He was looking right (good) to Bulma's eyes.
"So you callin' me fat." Bulma said flirtatously while trying to keep eye contact with his eyes.
"Now let's go."Vegeta told his group trying to avoided her flirtatous body language.
"Vegeta but we planned to go this way!" Nappa exclamied ponting his finger Bulma's direction.
"Change of plan. Do something with her, she knows too much." Vegeta's face lit up with a smirk, then he turned away.
"Vegeta she's not marked, she could be one of "us." Yamcha pleaded towards Vegeta's back.
"Talk with your head imblicle." Nappa yelled slapping Yamcha in the back of the head.
"We have enough drama with Launch. We don't need another woman with "us." Vegeta hissed.
"First of all I'm more than another woman. I'm beautiful smart and useful." Bulma said in her defense. Vegeta turned his head towards Bulma.
"Beautiful! Your the ugliest drag queen to ever hit the God given light, and you don't look smart as you do useful." He shot at her still keeping his smirk. Bulma's eyes became larger she couldn't believe that he said that.
"How dare you. I'm not not ugly. And I'm the smartest thing that you'll pass by."Bulma was cut off by Nappa.
"And again this is why we are always late for a site. I prepare everything, set up a time. Here we are arguing with an blue haired alien girl. We are taking a capsule next time." Nappa complained.
"Actually Nappa your going to sit here and enjoy this conversation with the woman." Vegeta kept his eyes on Bulma."What's your name?" Vegeta asked Bulma.
"Like you need to know." Bulma shot at him playfully.
"He meant what do they call you on the streets, not your real name." A very tall man behind Yamcha said. Nappa seem very irratible by every second going bye, as they argueed back and froth with Bulma.
"Since you put it that way, we really don't need to know who you are.You don't exist because your unmark, you can't possibily be a threat to us." Vegeta told Bulma, who was lost in Vegeta's words.
"So?" Nappa asked unpatiencily.
"Around, Dirt you see that the woman makes it back to the top. Don't get spotted...by anyone. Got it moron." Vegeta commanded.
"Whatever Vegeta." Yamcha replied. All of Ashes walked away as Bulma and Yamcha walked the oppsite direction. Bulma turned around to look just once more and she smirked.
"You know I can walk myself. I know which way to go." Bulma said.
"Oh you can, so which way did you come here." Bulma didn't answer him."That's what I thought. So what is your name." Yamcha aksed boldly.
" Bu...UnderGround Queen."She said as if it meant queen of the world.
"You got UG. Ha...I don't believe you. Who was reigning then?" Yamcha said disbelieving her.
"Masaka." Bulma answered.
"Well anyone could of gotten that right. Okay prove that you fought today." Yamcha said still not believing her.
"There's this." Bulma pushed her long curly hair back to uncover the gash over her eye. She remembered that's what got her here in the first place." Stupid gash." Bulma mumbled.
"Wow you defeated Masaka, that absoultly insane. UG. That title already belongs to another, you're that good." Yamcha said looking at the crumbled building.
"Yeah but what about the "Queen" part. That's good right?" Bulma asked him as he started walking again.
"Kind of, but that's just a temp. If you keep fighting and winning you keep queen. If you lose to a new blood then you become a Dutchess, if you fight a Princess and lose your demoted to a Princess. Oh yes and if you lose to a Dutchess then your a serf, joker, or a jack." Yamcha explained.
"So it's kind of like a deck of cards of a royal family." Bulma said.
"Yeah, in 3 more months there is a Queen's battle. Then a Prince's battle. The Queen and Prince will have to battle it out. It's not often that a Queen and a Prince fight. So it will be filled there. Keep winning and we'll see what happens next." Curiosity struck Yamcha out of no where."Since I'm not the biggest idiot, I know that you could be a threat. Who do you role with?" Yamcha asked."Is it a new gang, because I've never seen you before." he added.
"You're going to have to find out for yourself. Ask around." Bulma told him.
"UnderGround, I'm Dirrt. Hopefully you'll tell me. They call me Dirrt Because the fight I did win was not my first nor second or third, it was my sixith time coming back. When I was growing up I always had someone to protect me. When I went to the UnderGround no one was there, it was just me the other person I had to fight and the tile." He said sadily.
"So what you mean to say is you got your butt whopped 5 times." Bulma told him.
"Yeah, I've never been so proud to say that I got my butt tore out the frame." His mood changed from sad to happy, as they walked up the stairs.
"Bet I'll win my next fight."She said proudly.
"Don't get cocky. There is always someone stronger. Always. Oh UnderGround why don't you have a mark. He said opening the door to the UnderGround.
"Because I don't." She answered while walking in the UnderGround. She took a last look at the UnderGround City under West City. It made her think, why would they build a city over another.
'It must of been beautiful city in it's day. Now almost all the buildings were carotid, bricks and stones belonged in the streets.' Bulma told herself.
"Dirrt, thank you." Bulma said trying to conclude the night.
"It seems we should go out sometime?" Yamcha asked intently.
"But what if I'm with let's say...West Side. Would it matter?" Bulma asked curiously.
"It doesn't matter. If we see each other at a site, it will just have to be that. You protect your own. What's your own? You have to decide what's your own your love for a love or your love for a gang." Yamcha said.
"If that's true then we can go out, but only as friends." Bulma explained.(ya'll thought she'd go with him, Please.)
She was sorry she had to put him down that way, but she wasn't interested with his advances.
"Okay UG, I'll see you around." He walked back down the stairs and turned into the darkness of the ruined city. Then she closed the door behind her, time to find 18.
The people were siting in there seats watching another. She tryed looking for the wonder twins but they weren't where she saw them last. She walk towards the entrance door and started to call for them.
"17, 18." Bulma called out. There they were getting ready to leave.
"B, he thought you left." 18 stated as 17 rolled his eyes. They both had on heavy black winter coats, it was the middle of summer. "You know there is a site and..." Bulma told them, but 17 cut her off.
"So what, anyways there isn't a site." 17 tryed assuring Bulma.
"Whatever I know what I heard. They are waiting infront, is there some other way of avoiding it." 18 laughed at Bulma's plan.
"B, or should I say UnderGround Queen. If you take a short cut in this you'll have a tall bald man always on your case."18 explained. Was 18 serious? She only had a winter coat on what did she expect to accomplish. They stood in complete silence in the empty hall way and then a cold draft swifted by like a winter storm.
"Come on, I'm not stupid."18 finally spoke out. "Napz didn't have to say anything, If I go anywhere Ashes are right behind me." 18 added with humor. She open her coat and revealed she was ready for war."They think they can ambush me and tell me about the ambush, unprofessional. These are my streets, they're just going to have a mouth full of Mid-Cytes concrete. 17 give her one of yours." This was the second time today Bulma was handed a weapon by one of the twins. 17 gave Bulma knife and 9m, 18 took off her black winter coat and handed it to Bulma so she may put it on.
"This is your first site, I want you to put your hair up in a bun." Bulma put up her hair as 18 instructed her to. "Shoot at the ground, don't shoot at them. I tell you why someday. Avoid getting shot at. When you have nothing left take the gun with you and burn it(means to run)." 18 continued her instruction. 17 and Bulma followed 18 up the subway stairs. The feeling was exilalrating, it made your blood feel thinner, and your heart pound faster. They emerged from the UnderGround to West City. Bulma looked down at her watch "9:47" Bulma whispered.
"Oh my Prince, come out. Your out here I know it. How dare you! You come to ambush me! You are very stupid! I'm right here Prince." 18 screamed with a manic laugh. 18 was losing it.
"So blondes aren't stupid, they know when it's time to die. Miss Blue I didn't think she'd have you." That voice belonged to Vegeta and Bulma was sure of it. "We have more to offer than Mid Cytes." Ashes came from the shadows of the buliding.
"I have a home." Bulma simpily anwsered. When Ashes came there were more people, than there were UnderGround. Out of all the members of Ashes only one caught Bulma's eyes it was the woman with the purple hair standing next Nappa
"Nappa you want to go?" 17 asked Nappa. 17 stepped up in front of 18 leaving Bulma behind the twins.
"Kid I'd put you in your place, and how many times must I tell you, I want the prize." Nappa said pointing at 18.
"Prince I'm going to sit this one out." The purple haired woman said.
"What, You're just going to let her sit this one out?" Nappa yelled at Vegeta forgetting that he was just yelling at 17. Nappa's attention span was very short. Vegeta just nodded.
"Why, are you afraid of me, Scrachez?"18 asked Launch.
"Well yeah, I feel that men should fight men." She flipped her hair, as she place herself infront of 18.
"The only man I see is the hoe infront of me." 18 shot at her. With that Launch balled up her fist and swung to hit 18, but Yamcha grabbed her arms.
Vegeta's eyes were fixed on Bulma the whole time. In his mind he wondered if she did have any ablities and how is it that he missed her, he thought he knew everybody on Mid-Cytes.
"This wouldn't be fair at all,18. There are only three off you. And you..." Everyone found it humorus and laughed. He then said pointing at Bulma." it would be an insult to fight you." He was trying to see what would make Bulma on edge. He didn't get to find it, well atlease not today.
Just then a cop car turned around the corner. Vegeta blew a kiss to Bulma and faded into the shadow. After Vegeta, then all of Ashes faded into the shadows from which they came from. The car slowly pulled up next to them and then sped off just like before.
"B, go home. Call me tommorrow." 18 said walking towards her weakly. 17 saw it too.
"18 I would go home, but I don't know my way there." Bulma told 18.
"I'm taking you home then I'll take 18 to the garage." 17 stated. He avioded asking 18 if she was alright, he knew." 18 when we get home you're going to bed." 18 rolled her eyes. "Do you hear me, Chick?" 17 wasn't taking any chances, not with his sister. He took out the capsule and threw it on the ground.
"I hear you." 18 sneered. She then coverted her attention to Bulma. "Do you see why they made this city." Bulma stood speachless, until 18 passed out.
"Oh, God." 17 mumbled as he came to her rescue.
"Is she alright?" Bulma asked in terror.
"Yeah she just needs some rest." 17 lied.
"Okay." Bulma said softly. 17 picked up 18 unto his shoulders. Opened the back of the capsule and placed her there. Bulma got into the passengers seat. She rememebered when she gave model 7Qb to the Wonder Twins for Christmas and in return they gave Bulma a Red Ribbon security system. 17 started 7Qb up, and blasted off into the dark sky starry sky.
Bulma gazed into the starry sky and and thought about that punk, Vegeta and how arrogant he stood. She seen many eyes in her life but none truly like his. 'The leader of Ashes is looking right.' Bulma thought. She looked back at 18, who was sleeping in the back.
"It's ashme, she almost passed out on a site." Bulma joked.
"If they would of waited a few minutes after the cop passed by they could of attacked us while she was sleeping." 17 laughed.
"You are crazy." Bulma put her head down. A nap didn't sound so bad.
Elsewhere
"Bulma, Please tell me the truth." A person in a dark room voice drifted into the shadow of the hallways.
