Okay, first off, sorry. I lost a computer so my computer time is limited. I will continue to write my chapters, but as for posting. They may happen once a week, if I am lucky and my man let's me on his computer. Thank you for your patience.

Bulma woke up, her cerulean eyes blinking as the bright sun's rays entered the pod's one round window. Bulma stretched her sore muscles before adjusting the man in her lap so that she could edge out of the pod without dropping him. He was still unconscious so once out she had to levitate them out of the pod's crater so that she could survey the planet that they had landed on. The skies were a light blue with clean, crisp air that blew around them. Unlike Vegeta-sei, the vegetation, though plenty, was a lime or yellow green and there were plenty of different colored flowers.

"Hmmm," Bulma murmured as she set her white booted feet on the springy wet grass. Her blue eyes continued to survey the area around her, her body ever alert for danger. Her pale fingers touched the scouter on her left ear and with a few beeps the green screen over her eye sprang to life. Several energy levels appeared on screen. There was one clutter of them to the west and Bulma decided that there was a city of some sort in that direction, so shifting her load she headed off in that direction.

A bald man looked up as an unfamiliar energy source approached West City. The dark haired woman next to him looked up in the same direction, as did the old man next to her.

"Do you feel it?" the bald man inquired of the others as the city continued to hustle and bustle around them.

"Hai, Krillin, I feel it," the older man said as a frown etched on his worn features. "Who is it?" Krillin shook his head.

"Not anyone that I know," Krillin said before turning to the girl next to him. "Launch, stay here with Master Roshi while I go and investigate this." He turned from the group, his light aura flared up as he took flight.

Several silver pods turned as bright red with sparks of orange as they entered the planet's atmosphere. Below them were blue waters and green chunks that surrounded them. The white, fluffy clouds parted for the intruders as they fell to the ground. They were looking for refuge from the evil that was hunting them and they were looking for their lost prince.

Bulma was halfway to the city when Krillin intercepted her. His dark eyes eyed her wearyingly as he took in her appearance. She wore armor that was white and covered her upper body, while the rest of her body was covered in a black material that he could not decipher. She wore white boots and gloves and the man in her arms wore similar cloths. Her blue aura flickered around her as her turquoise tail twitched behind her. Her turquoise hair flowed around her as another gust of wind blew around her.

"Who are you?" Her cerulean eyes darkened as she frowned at his hostile tone.

"Who are you?" she shot back.

"I am Krillin. I am one of many of this planet's protectors. Why are you here?" Bulma realized that the man in front of her felt threatened by her presence, so she relaxed her posture slightly.

"My name is Bulma and I have come here for sanctuary from an evil that attacked my planet." He relaxed as he realized that she was being sincere. "My companion and I managed to escape," she continued as she shifted her load. "He needs medical attention. Is there a medical bay near by?" Krillin pointed behind him.

"West City is that way. I can take you to the hospital that is there." Bulma nodded, still slightly on guard, unsure of his true intentions. Was he going to lead her to the rest of the protectors of this planet so that they could kill her and her companion or was he being truthful and only wanted to help her? When they entered the city Bulma looked around her in awe at all the different kinds of species that inhabited the planet. Some looked up at them, but disregarded them. Soon they came to a large, white building that Krillin called a hospital. The lady that sat behind the counter was pale with bright red hair, like fresh blood, that curled around her face. Her green eyes glowed with curiosity as she saw Bulma and the man in her arms.

"How can I help you, Krillin?" she inquired. After he explained the situation to her the young nurse called a stretcher, which led the unconscious man away. Bulma almost blasted the man that removed the man from her, but Krillin, who told her that it was alright, stopped her. "We will be running some tests on him," the girl explained. "I will call you when we figure out what is wrong with him."

"Thanks Starla," Krillin said before leading Bulma outside. She really did not want to leave him with those people, but at Krillin's insistence did just that. "You can stay with me," he said as he took off into the sky. Bulma followed him as they headed for another part of the city where his friends waited for him. "Hi-ya, gang," he said as he landed in front of a larger group of people then the ones he had left. His hand gestured toward Bulma. "This is Bulma. Her planet was attacked. Only her and her companion were able to escape. She will be staying with me." Roshi could feel no evil coming from her, but there was still something about her that drew him.

"Hi, my name is Launch," a dark haired girl said as she stepped forward, her hand offered out in front of her. Bulma eyed the appendage warily, but then shook it. Soon the rest of the people in front of her offered their hands and names. There was a cat; Puar, a pig; Oolong, an old man; Master Roshi, a green man; Piccolo, and a dark haired girl; Chi-Chi. After getting to know everyone they headed off to what Krillin called home.

Several people exited that large craters that littered the once flat ground, their dark eyes scanned the area. One man in particular stood out from the rest, his royal attire showing his rank.

"I'm sure that he went here," the man boomed. "Find him." Scouters beeped as the people around the man headed off to find the missing prince. A man stood next to the king, his features almost a replica of the man. His dark eyes glowered as he watched the groups take to the skies. "Son, go and find your brother." The man grunted as he took to the skies, but he headed in a different direction.
