AN-thanks for the review guys whew it's been heck getting the next chapter out I swear the next one will be longer. I had a song for this chapter but my idea will take more time then I wanted so I thought I'd give ya'll a small chapter now rather then give you a massive one later.

`thoughts'

^sayain^

"talking"

"Preperations"

Bulma walked into her dad's lab with Vegeta trailing behind her.

"Ok what's up?" Bulma said and walked over to where her dad was.

"Oh sweetie glad you're here. I was testing out my new communication device and I picked this up. Listen to this." He said pushing a button on a square device in front of him.

"I've spent several hours translating it." He hands Bulma a piece of paper as the voices start.

^ I don't care what you want we need supplies. We had a deal ^ and irate sounding female voice said.

^ We demand twice the price it's getting harder and harder to reach you damn monkeys and I'm doing this for profit not out of the kindness of my heart. ^ A rough male voice replied.

^ One day my people will be strong again and you will regret your words. ^ The woman growled.

^ Sure what ever are you going to pay or not? ^

^ For now yes. We will find some way to make your payments or I am not the Queen of all Sayains ^

Vegeta had gone white while listening to the tape but at the mention of who the women claimed to be he gasped.

"Where did you get this old man?" he said shock evident on his face.

The tape shut off and Dr. Briefs turned to the two of them. "Like I said I was scanning the outer corners of the galaxy when I picked up this signal. It looks like your not the last of your people my boy."

Bulma who had been quiet till now turned to Vegeta and asked. "So does that make her…. Your mother?"

"Yes, I recognized her voice at the beginning, but her saying it only proves it further. Some how her and some of my planet escaped before Freiza destroyed it."

"Unfortunately I lost the signal but was able to get the approximate area that it came from." Dr. Briefs said.

"Prepare me a shuttle I plan on leaving at once." Vegeta demanded.

"Hmm, well I guess you could use the new ship Bulma helped me design. I'm just worried about it going on a trip that long with out being tested first. It will take about a month to get there, and there could still be some.. quirks."

"I don't care old man I want to leave tomorrow, have it ready."

"Dad what if I went with him. If the ship broke I could fix it on the way. Plus this would be a great time to start planting relays for your communication device. We'd need to stop to refuel along the way and I could put up the devices then. So we could still stay in touch if I needed to ask you about something."

"I guess that would work and it's not like it's your first time to ravel in space. I guess it's up to you Bulma."

"No it is up to me on whether or not I want that screeching women annoying me for a month." Vegeta said crossing his arms across his chest.

"Come on Vegeta I'm doing this for you. It's not like I really want to traipse across the universe in a small ship with your for a month either, but if something goes wrong with the ship you'll need someone to help fix it." Bulma said resting her hand on his shoulder.

"Fine women be ready to leave tomorrow morning." Vegeta said storming off.

"Oh, I better go pack." Bulma says rushing to her own room."

Dr. Briefs just shook his head and chuckled as he went to make more adjustments of comfort to the ship.

~ The next morning ~

Bulma dragged a substantial amount of luggage and started loading it onto the ship. The entire household had been making preparations for Vegeta and Bulma's departure. Dr. Briefs had been busy stocking up with supplies and making adjustments to the computer as well as programming some places to stop along the way to refuel. Bulma's mother had been adding more extravagant snacks and entertainment for the journey. This involved a rather long trip to some 24-hour stores but she enjoyed it. Bulma had been packing like crazy trying to bring everything she could possible need in a month. Vegeta had been thinking mostly. Sure he packed some clothes and necessities but he felt no urge to bring everything the way Bulma had.

"Ok dear I think your all ready to go." Bulma's mother said chipper as always.

"Yes, you have the schematics and how to refuel the ship in the comp." Dr. Briefs added.

"Yes, I know thanks mom, thanks dad." Bulma said hugging them both as her and Vegeta boarded the new ship.

"Oh bye Vegeta have a nice trip dear." Mrs. Briefs called out. Vegeta just grunted and kept walking.

"He's such a nice young man. If only our Bulma could marry a man like him." She said pulling Dr. Briefs back in the house as the ship took off.

The ship was spacious to say the least. The first level had the main computers, kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom. The second floor held the modified G.R. and other training equipment.

Bulma looked around admiring her dads work and takeing a mental note of the supplies they had. When she reached the bedroom she froze.

"There's only one bedroom. Worse yet there's only one bed. Ahhhhhhh."

"Woman what are you shrieking about?"

"There is only one bed one of us will have to sleep on the floor."

"Have fun. If I'm in a good mood later maybe I'll throw you a pillow."

"You jackass you're the guy your suppose to offer to sleep on the floor."

"I'm also a prince. Princes do not sleep on the floor. If you want a bed then you'll have to share. It's a king size it's not like it won't have enough room."

"So you mean princes do share beds." She said rolling her eyes.

"Depends." He said smiling evilly. He walked back to the main room with Bulma's mouth hanging open.

"Pervert!" she yelled after him.
