Chapter 12
Fighting Battles, Side by Side


Let me just say that in the last chapter, I gave you a preview of what this chapter would be. That was wrong. That preview is for the next chapter. So if you are expecting Bulma and Vegetaas kids, wait till the next chapter.

And another thing. People have been getting on my case because there's no lemon yet. There won't be a lemon for a good while. This story is basically situations you wouldn't find Bulma and Vegeta in. Citrus is in it every once in a while.

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


Bulma and Vegeta continued to run from the countrified family.

Bulma: When we get home, I'm taping your mouth shut permantly!

Vegeta: We'll see about that!

Vegeta and Bulma dodged bullets for what seemed like all night.

Bulma: Vegeta I don't think I can go on.

Vegeta: Weak human!

Vegeta picked Bulma up and ran with her past trees and bushes.

Pa: I think we should stop now!

Elly Mae: Yeah Pa! It's almost mornin!

Lurleen: Yeah let's get some rest and continue this another time!

The family retreated to their home, leaving Bulma and Vegeta thankful.

Vegeta: Finnaly!

Vegeta held Bulma close to him. Even though they were out of danger, Vegeta felt comfortable holding Bulma close to him.

Vegeta: It's amlost morning anyway, might aswell get the hell out of here!

Vegeta placed Bulma against a tree and searched her lab coat for the remote. Luckily he found it.

Vegeta: *Maybe in the next portal we'll be energized?*

Vegeta pressed the button and closed his eyes as the light engulfed their bodies, sending them into the next world.

** Next portal **

Vegeta saw darkness. He could hear life around him. He was so tired.

Lois: Clark get up!

Vegeta sat up. He thought he heard Chi Chi's voice. Where was he?

Vegeta: Where am I?

Lois: Don't play games Clark! We have a story to finish real soon!

Vegeta: What the hell? My name is Vegeta, not clark or whatever!

Vegeta: *This woman looks just like Kakarott's mate, but obviously there something wrong here!*

Lois: Smallville what's the matter with you?

Vegeta: I don't know.

Lois: Maybe you've finnaly cracked, go home or something.I'll tell the boss that you were sick or something.

Lois or Chi Chi pushed Vegeta out of his seat and towards the elevator.

Lois: You had better return tommorow making some sense!

Lois pushed Vegeta into the elevator. The elevator doors closed and Vegeta was sent down.

Vegeta: *Where's the woman?*

Gotham.................

Bulma saw darkness aswell. She was so tired. She opened her eyes.

Bulma: *What the hell?*

Bulma looked around her. She was in a big bed, in a big room.

Bulma: Where am I?

Her door opened and a old man entered and stared at her.

Alfred: Good Morning Miss Bulma.

Bulma: What's going on here, you look so familiar.

Alfred: Are you okay?

Bulma: I don't know. Refresh my mind of my life.

Alfred: Okay...um, your are a billionare, you're parents were killed, and your the crime fighter for his city.

Bulma: *parents were killed, crime fighter?*

Bulma: What city is this?

Alfred: Gotham City.

Bulma: *Oh my god!*

Bulma fell back onto her pillows.

Alfred: Are you okay now Miss Bulma?

Bulma: *This is weird* Uh...yeah.

Alfred: Well breakfast is ready.

Bulma: I'll be down soon.

Alfred: Very well.

Alfred left the room leaving Bulma to collect her thoughts.

Bulma: *I'm Batman!?*


~~ that's right! I made Bulma Batman! I don't care! Besides, it's only for this chapter. You can probably guess who Vegeta is. This chapter may make sense towards the end. ~~


Bulma out of pure shock fainted against her covers. before she submitted to thedarkness, she wondered where the hell Vegeta was, and who was he.....

In Metropolis.........

Vegeta was walking the streets of the city. He had no clue where he was, no idea who he was, why people mistaked him for someone else. He didn't want to admit it outloud, but he wished Bulma was there with him to clarify what the hell was going on.

Vegeta: *Yes, where is the woman*

Vegeta heard some shouting from a nearby news stand. He stepped near it and saw a group of kids fighting over something juvenile.

Kid 1: Superman is better!

Kid 2: No Batman is better!

Kid 3: You're both wrong! Aquaman is the best!

Kid 1+2: Shut the hell up!

Vegeta: Shut up!

The kids looked to Vegeta like he was crazy!

Vegeta: What are you kids arguing about.

Kid 2: You're a grownup, you wouldn't care!

Kid 1: Yeah nerd get lost!

Vegeta snatched his glass off, disentergrated them in his hand and grabbed Kid 1 by his collar.

Vegeta: What was that?

Kid 1: I...Uh...

Vegeta: What are you all discussing.

Kid 3: Uh..Super Hero's mister.

Vegeta: *Some respect! Finnaly*

Vegeta: Super Hero's?

Kid 1: Yeah, want us to explain. Maybe you can help us out with who's better.

Vegeta: Whatever!

Kid 1: Okay, Superman is a super hero for this city. He's real. He protects everyone. They mad a comic about him and everthing!

Vegeta: get on with it!

Kid 1: Well he originally came from a planet in space. He has super powers!

(The comics they're looking at only tell times Superman saved people. they don't go into super details like the comics we have do!)

Vegeta just nodded his head and thought.

Vegeta: *A hero from another planet. intresting. I have a feeling I have something to do with all this*

Kid 2: And now onto a real superhero!

Kid 1 blew a rassberry at Kid 2. Vegeta rolled his eyes.

Kid 2: In Gotham City, there's a super hero named Batman! He doesn't have powers, but cool fighting skills and jets and stuff.

Kid 1: Waste of time if you ask me!

Kid 2: No one asked you!

Kid 3: And Aquaman is...

Kid 1+2: a mermaid man who can communate to fish. Wow!

Kid 3 ignored them and tried to continue his explination, only that Vegeta was gone.

Vegeta: *I must go to this Gotham City or whatever and find this 'Batman' Guy!*

Vegeta went into a alley and flew towards Gotham City. He stopped when he didn't realize where the hell it was. So he asked people for directons.

In Gotham.............

Bulma had been woken up with smelling salts. She had beenadvised to stay in bed.

Alfred: I just don't understand it. In the morning you act as though you have amnesia, then you faint and no everything.

Bulma: he He..yeah that is kind funny!

Bulma: *Thankyou for reading comics as a kid!*

Alfred: The commisioner called. He said that he thinks the Gotham National Bank will be robbed tonight by Joker and his gang. He wants you to stick close to it.

Bulma: Well...okay I guess.

Bulma hopped out of bed and went down the steps. She looked to the large clock and opened it. Like she remembered, Batman's cave was behind the clock. She went down the steps, ingored the bats, and dressed for her even more interesting night.

Gotham National Bank...........

Bulma sat on the roof of the bank waiting for anything suspicious to occur.

Bulma: *Who knew crime fighting was this boring*

Her thoughts were interupted when the building shookl due to a explosion.

Bulma: Holy shit! Well here I go.

Bulma slipped down the building and entered it. Smoke filled the building. She pushed it aside and her vison cleared slowly. She saw a pile of something a few feet away.

Bulma: *Wait a minute, it looks like...The Joker...tied up?*

Bulma heard a clapping sound. A figure was still behind the smoke.

Bulma: Wh-Who's there?

Vegeta was dusting off his hands. The weaklings were bothering him so he just temporarily stopped them from whatever it was they were going to do.

Vegeta: Weaklings!

Bulma: *That sounds like Vegeta.*

Vegeta: You!

Bulma looked up.

Vegeta: Yeah you, give me some answers.

Bulma: Vegeta is that you?

Bulma took off her mask and got a better look of Vegeta.

Vegeta: Woman, why are dressed up?

Bulma: I wondered where you were, what are you doing here?

Vegeta: I was hoping to rob the bank and find 'Batman' here. Those weaklings were doing what I was doing. So I beated them.

Bulma: Vegeta, why are you wearing glasses, and you're wearing bussiness clothes.

Vegeta: It's part of this fucking world. These glasses keep re-appearing.

Bulma: i think I know who you are. Follow me to my mansion.

Vegeta: let me guess, in every portal we enter you're a rich bitch?

Bulma: I'm gonna let that slide.

Bulma directed Vegeta to fly to 'Wayne Manor'. Bulma entered the mansion, with Vegeta right behind. Alfred stared at Bulma like she was crazy.

Alfred: Miss Bulma? Why are you being a stranger into the mansion. What about your secret identity.

Vegeta: Her being a whore in tights isn't a secret.

Bulma: Shove it Vegeta! Alfred, it's okay. Yeah he's strange, but nothing to worry about.

Alfred: Very well then.

Alfred left the room. Bulma proceeded to the bat cave, with Vegeta trailing behind.

Vegeta: I demand answers.

Bulma: Calm down.

Bulma went to the main computer and sat down. Yes she had a lot of explaining to do.
