Dragon Ball/Z/GT Fan Fiction ❯ The Unusual Sayain (Revised) ❯ And the Winner is... ( Chapter 17 )

~Chapter 17, enjoy~

Bulma broke free of his grasp and flipped around at lightning speed. She began her assault with punches and kicks in a flying frenzy. Vegeta hadn't been expecting this so she gotten a first few good hits in. She seemed really determined to win this bet! But he managed to compose himself and began to block her moves and throw a series of his own attacks. They both got their amount of good hits. Both of them gaining the upper hand off and on.

Finally Bulma managed to kick him in the stomach sending him flying to the ground. She fazed out and appeared under him ready to send him back up but just before he got to her he fazed out himself and managed to lock her arms behind her once again. "Give up yet?"

Bulma growled. "Not a chance!!" She began to struggle and managed to maneuver her arm so that she was able to hit him in the face with her elbow. It surprised him and knocked him backwards.

Bulma began to power up. Vegeta noticed and once he had his thoughts gathered back to normal he began to power up as well. All of the spectators on the ground were in awe. Not only was this girl fighting their Prince and keeping up but she was actually holding her own very well. They were all having trouble just keeping their eyes on them both. They were moving so fast it was hard to keep track of them. At times they were completely invisible.

Bulma pulled her hands back and began to power up one of her special attacks. Vegeta considered which attack to use then decided when he felt how much energy her little attack seemed to be generating. He spread his arms and legs to that he was in the air spread eagle style. He began to absorb energy into both of his hands as she began to power up her attack. He could tell whatever she was going to use it was very powerful...but so was his. He couldn't believe how determined she was to win this bet.

Bulma smirked. She could tell exactly which attack he was about to use. Everyone in the room did. It was one of the attacks he was famous for. No one knew this attack she was about to use. It was her most powerful attack and most of the time when she used it the person she used it on never came out alive. But she knew him...even if it did hit him he would survive it. He was stronger than that. But with the attack he was using there was no telling what the outcome would be.

She kept gathering energy into the beam that she was about to unleash. She hoped that no one in the room would get hurt from this beam. It was one reason she didn't like to use it was because of its proximity. But she was pretty sure that Vegeta could handle therefore keeping the rest of the room out of harms way. She decided that she finally had enough energy gathered into it. She concentrated all of the energy into the center of the beam which was the main process point that caused the damage.

Vegeta could see she was finished and was concentrating the energy into one point of destruction so he did that same. He concentrated all of the energy into the very center of the beam where it would cause the most damage. He wasn't using all the power he could not wanting to hurt her. She was pregnant after all so he was going to take it easy on her. ~courtesy of one of my reviewers hehe~ Once he was finally finished he thrust his hands out in front of him. "Lets see you get passed this one my dear! FINAL FLASH!!!!"

Bulma smirked. "We'll see who can get passed what! AD ASTRA!!!!" Vegeta's famous move that had destroyed countless worlds emerged from his now pressed together hands. It was an enormous beam that could destroy not only any being but entire planets without a thought. There very proximity of it made the men on the ground quiver in fear. They had all put up shields around them selves preparing for the worst. Because if Bulma's beam couldn't stop it then it would most likely destroy the entire room.

The very cosmos seemed to explode from Bulma's hands. It seemed as if stars appeared in the beam itself. The beam itself was very dark and throughout it were what seemed like white specks of ki which made it looked like a starry night outside. Soon in the middle of the beam a bit of the white ki began to grow larger and it began to move to the front of it just as the two beams clashed. It looked like a shooting star now as they collided. The room began to rumble and shake as one beam attempted to over power the other.

Vegeta was impressed. He hadn't expected an attack of that caliber. She never ceased to amaze him in the slightest. He continued to add power to his beam as the battle of the ki continued. Bulma was doing the same and the 'shooting star' in the middle began to gain power as she added more ki to it. More white ki specks added themselves to the 'star' and it began to increase in power. In all truths Vegeta wasn't sure if he could keep this up much longer. Suddenly it felt as if Bulma's beam was dying down.

He looked up and saw that she had blanked out. It was just like she had done the last time they were fighting and before he could stop it his beam kept taking energy and adding it to itself and overpowered hers. The 'star' exploded into nothing almost destroying the room and his beam started to race towards Bulma. Vegeta gasped and fazed out. He wrapped his arms around her and took the full impact of the beam. He fell forward with her still in his arms.

He growled inwardly. 'Why does she keep doing that?! Damnit she is going to get herself killed at this rate! If not then she'll be the death of me!!' He opened his eyes with a groan. His back was now killing him. Bulma groaned lightly and her eyes seemed to come back into focus. She whimpered in his arms and wrapped her own around his neck. This was the first actual contact she had ever initiated with him. He felt something wet and warm sliding down his chest. Then he realized that she was crying. He said nothing though and just held her like that for some time not caring about all the peering eyes in the room.

Bulma finally looked up into his face with tears in her eyes. "You win..." Then she passed out. Vegeta smiled slightly then pulled himself up along with her. He carried her through the training room. Radditz was in the back ground and he laughed. "Guess you were just too much for her sire!"

Vegeta looked at Radditz with a cold stare. "Shut up Radditz if you want to stay in one piece! She lasted longer than you did you pathetic excuse for a warrior!! Now hold your tongue! You should honored to be in the presence of such a fine warrior such as her!!"

Everyone in the room gaped. Had the prince just defended a mere female? Then something caught the eye of a lot of soldiers in the room. There were bite marks on the female's neck. So the rumors were true after all. Their Prince had taken a mate finally. No one said a word and just watched as the prince walked out with the young elite.

Vegeta sighed. He knew he shouldn't have exploded like that...it showed his weakness for the precious female in his arms. But it infuriated him to no end that the other soldiers underestimated her power for the mere fact that she was so young and that she was a female. She was 10 times the soldier as any of them. He sighed. This female WAS going to be the death of him at this rate.

He carried her to their room. There was no need for her to go to the regen tanks. She merely needed to rest. She would be fine in a couple of hours. He wondered why she kept blanking out like that all the time...It seemed to happen every time she used one of her big attacks. He sighed again. He would contemplate this later. He went to their room and laid her down in the bed. He covered her up then decided that he was tired as well. He pulled off his armor as well as hers not wanting to have to sleep next to her while she was fully dressed.

He crawled into the bed and let his muscles relax themselves. He pulled her to him and as if on instinct she wrapped her arms around him. He smiled. That was the second time she had initiated contact with him. He was afraid that he was starting to fall for this little fire cat...and it scared him. A Sayain should not have these sorts of feelings. If he hadn't been stronger today then that meant he would have given his life to save her today. But then again he believed in any situation he would do everything in his power to protect her. She was his and nothing was to ever harm her. He sighed once again and pulled her closer to him to keep her warm and closed his eyes. There would be plenty more time to think about this once they got home. Soon after he closed his eyes and fell asleep.
