Phoenix Rising: Chapter 4
By: Phoenixical
Disclaimer: I don’t own DBZ nor am I making money off of this story.
Note: As stated before this takes place after the Buu saga….I detest DBGT. I apologize for the long wait but the furlough has been kind of hectic for me smh. And nancy103 thank you for the review!! It’s greatly appreciated. And don’t worry; Bulma is one of the few female characters that I actually like!
Pairing: Vegeta/OC, Vegeta/Goku (eventually, the muses still haven’t changed their minds about that so maybe soon!)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            Vegeta no Ouji lay silent and still in his bed. He was aware that something had woken him, but was unsure what it was. Slowly he lifted his head and glanced at the small bundles that were sleeping peacefully on either side on him. His chest was covered by a mass of purple hair on one side and on the other, by the spikes of Kakkarot’s youngest son. He smiled slightly at the reason why both boys were here.
             They had been training until late that afternoon when a bad storm had rolled in. Not willing to fly home in the weather, Goten had called his mother and asked her to let him stay. She agreed, not without a little persuasion on Bulma’s part, and just told him to try to make it in for breakfast. They had both been put to bed in Trunks’ room, but seeing that they were both scared of lightening, they must have made their way to his room. Even though Vegeta portrayed having a tough exterior, both boys knew that he cared for them deeply and wouldn’t throw them out of his room. Lost in his thoughts Vegeta suddenly heard what had woke him.
             “Vegeta.”
             It was the onna’s voice, pitched so low that only he would hear it. He could hear the sense of urgency that her voice held and slowly he slid from between the two boys. Covering them back up with his comforter, he made his way to the door. His black silk gi pants made no noise as he crossed the room quickly. Opening the door silently he stepped out into the hall and came face to face with Bulma.
           “What is it onna?”
            Bulma blinked slightly in surprise. She hadn’t expected Vegeta to come out that quickly nor did she expect him to be dressed in nothing but pajama pants. Shaking her head, while cursing at herself, she got her bearings.
            “I need you to come to my lab. I’ve been following some ships on my radar that I thought were going to bypass Earth…..most of them did. So I came to the conclusion that they were headed somewhere else. But….”
            Vegeta raised an eyebrow. “But?”
            Bulma sighed and decided to plow ahead, knowing that he would probably never let her live this down.
            “This last ship looks like it’s headed directly for Earth. I have seen no variations to its course at all. And from the way that it’s moving….it looks like it should be here within three days. So I need you for two reasons….one to determine what type of ship it is.   And two, to see if there are any intelligent life-forms on there that you can communicate with.”
            Vegeta glared at her. There was no way in hell that he was going to be a damn interpreter for the onna!! Was she insane even suggesting such a thing! He, Vegeta no Ouji, was not going to talk to some damn aliens this damn early!
            “Onna, I refuse to talk to any damn creatures this early. You want me to tell you the origins of the ship then I’ll do that…but in the morning. NOT in the middle of the kami-damned night!”
            Vegeta turned to go back in the room. Bulma saw and gritted her teeth. THIS was the part that she was going to absolutely hate and what Vegeta was probably not going to allow her to live down.
            “Vegeta….I’m begging you please…I just feel something weird about this ship and I’m not entirely sure what it is. On top of that looking at the ship it doesn’t look like ANY technology that I’ve ever seen. You know me well enough to know that I wouldn’t ask if I didn’t think something was wrong…”
            That stopped Vegeta cold. The onna never begged him for anything. She either nagged him until he did it, or she did it herself. Begging him was something that was totally out of the norm for her and for him. He turned around to face her.
            “What’s really the matter?”
            “Vegeta…this ship isn’t really that big….but it looks like it’s fitted with weapons and it looks fast….almost like it’s made to fight.”
            “If that’s the case….then I guess we should go see it ne?”
            Bulma gave him a genuine smile and headed towards her lab with him in tow. Every since the whole incident with Buu, Vegeta had turned into a different person. He was more patient and even showed that he cared about his family. He also included Goten in family outings seeing that the youngster looked up to him in the same vein as Trunks did. Bulma was still thinking about the changes that Vegeta had gone through when they finally reached her lab. Opening the door they both headed over to the huge computer in the center. The radar that was connected to the computer was beeping incessantly.
            Quickly sitting down, Bulma halted the noise. She knew that if she had left it on that the radar would have probably hurt Vegeta’s sensitive ears. Pulling out the keyboard, while Vegeta looked over her shoulder, Bulma tapped out the frequencies to the radar that would allow her to show Vegeta the image of the ships. After several tense seconds an image of the ship came up on the screen. In the midst of turning around to face Vegeta, she almost missed his gasp.
            “Vegeta……what’s wrong? Do you know what type of ship this is?”
            He was pale and breathing heavily, eyes locked onto the screen. In his eyes Bulma detected just a slight bit of fear. His hands gripped the back of her chair so hard that his knuckles began to turn white. After a few tense minutes Vegeta realized that Bulma was staring at him.
“Hai onna….I know what type of ship this is.”, he said in a very quiet voice.
            Immediately she was excited.
            “That’s great then!!! We shouldn’t encounter any problems! In fact I bet that they’re probably some friends that you for--….”
            “I didn’t say that onna!” he said harshly. “By the way what time is it and does Trunks have to go to school today?”
            “Huh?! Where did that come from?”
            “Answer me damn it!!”
            “Well you jackass,” Bulma started angrily, “It’s the WEEKEND so Trunks doesn’t have to go to school today and it’s almost…..six in the morning why?”
            Finally looking at her, Vegeta spoke in a tone that scared her to her bones.
            “Bulma…..that’s a Saiyan warship. More specifically….that’s a Phoenix Clan Saiyan warship. Granted it’s not that big…but they don’t need that many of them to fight. They’re a more powerful race of Saiyan’s than Kakkarot and I are. I thought that the last ones had died out long ago. If they’re coming here….it could possibly spell trouble for us. Who’s better at figuring out the radio frequencies to make contact…you or Trunks?”
            “Trunks is….when I do it the signals tend to drop..,” she said quietly.
            Vegeta stood and headed towards the door.
            “Stay here then. I’ll go and wake him and Goten up. We need to make contact with that ship as soon as possible and figure out what is it that they want. Seeing that Kakkarot should be up…we need to get into contact with him and the others and let them know what the situation is.”
            “Right! I’ll get in contact with them all right now!”
            And with that Bulma ran into her adjoining office to begin making phone calls while Vegeta began the walk back to his suites.
            ‘Kami help us all if they’ve come here to fight….’
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
           “What’re you still doing up?”
            Majeeri turned his head slightly at the sound of her voice.
            “I could ask you the same thing Sapphy. Can’t sleep or something?”
            Soundlessly she made her way over to the other chair in the command center. She didn’t answer as she sat in the chair with her legs tucked under her. Pushing her long hair over one shoulder she spared her older brother a glance. Technically he and Micael looked the same. They both had the same greenish-blue eyes with high cheekbones and a sharp jaw. They even had the same haircut. The only way that someone who didn’t know them could tell them apart was to look at the back of their necks.   Majeeri had nothing on his but the crest of the House of Vegeta whereas Micael had not only the crest, but the symbol signifying him as the first-born son of the royal house. She snapped out of her musings suddenly and glared behind her. Speaking of the first-born son….
            “The hell are you two doing up?” Micael asked yawning as he was followed by a reptilian like creature.
            Sapphire ignored him and instead cooed gently to the creature.
            “Saa….Noriko….did the crack-brain wake you?”
            Noriko heard her and promptly jumped in her lap and snuggled against her. Noriko was a beautiful gray in color and resembled a baby dragon crossed with a dinosaur. He had the wings and face of a dragon, but it rested on a heavyset body with short stubby legs. Even though he looked like he would be hard pressed to move, the animal was very agile. He was so agile, in fact that sometimes Sapphire would spar with him in the training area of the ship.
            “Sapphy come on,” Micael complained, “It’s too early to start arguing and calling names and stuff. Besides aren’t you almost excited that we’re there?”
            Looking up, Sapphire actually took the time to take in her eldest brother’s appearance. He looked like hell. It looked like he had bags under his eyes and even his hair seemed limp. She decided to take pity on him for the time being.
            “Are you not getting enough sleep? You look like shit.”
            “While I would love to thank you for the compliment, it’s hard to get any sleep when you have to be in charge of ship whilst you’re two older sisters are constantly screaming at each other in the room next to yours. If you can give me something to combat the constant arguing that those two do, then I would forever be in your debt.,” he responded sarcastically.
            “Why didn’t you just come to get me?” Majeeri asked, “I would have done something to get them to stop. They listen to me more than they listen to you anyway.”
            “Shit….I wasn’t thinking about that at all. I just tried to turn over and go back to sleep. But anyway….you two still didn’t answer my question. Why are you all up? The ship’s on autopilot, so there’s no need to worry about flying it or it going off –course. And of course, if something went wrong, we sure as hell wouldn’t miss the damn notifications.”
            “Me and Sapphy were just viewing the planet again. Seeing that we’ll be landing in a few days, we just kind of wanted to take in the view.”
            Micael walked over to where the two were seated and sprawled out on the floor between the two. Reaching under the com center, Sapphire pulled out a blanket and a pillow and threw them down to her brother. Reaching in there again she pulled out two more blankets and pillows.  While she did this Noriko jumped down and snuggled beside Micael. Tossing a set Majeeri and keeping the other set for her, the three siblings sat back and looked at the planet until they dozed off.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
            Beep Beep Beep Beep Beep
            Groggily Sapphire sat up in the chair. She looked beside her and noticed that both of her brothers were still sleeping soundly. Turning back to the com unit she started to turn off the source of the noise until she realized what it was. Someone on that planet was trying to get in contact with them.
            “Micael! Majeeri! You two wake up!” she yelled excitedly. “Someone’s trying to contact us from Earth!!!”
             At her yell both Micael and Majeeri sat up suddenly.
             “Huh!?!”
             “What?!!?”
            Sapphire pointed excitedly at the red light that was blinking on the com unit.
            “See!?! I told you!! Do I need to answer it or will one you—“
            “I’ll do it,” Micael said getting up hurriedly. Standing quickly he finger combed his hair into place while making sure that he didn’t have any drool on his face. After doing that he sat in Majeeri’s chair, pushing Noriko on the floor after he refused to get up. Checking with his two siblings to make sure he looked presentable, he decided that it was time to answer the call.
            “Ok Sapphy. Go ahead and connect us to whoever is trying to contact us.”
            “Hai!!”
            Sapphire quickly typed the pass code sequence on the keyboard that would connect them to the others. As soon she finished the sequence she looked up at her brother. At his nod she pressed enter and the connection was made. Not looking up she expected her brother to make his usual “Prince Micael” speech, but she was surprised as she heard a gasp. Not looking at the screen she looked at Micael. He was pale and his eyes were wide. His mouth hung open and his fingers gripped the arm rests of the chair until they were almost bloodless. Turning her head to look at Majeeri she saw that he was the same way. Not knowing what else to do, she turned and looked at the view screen. There on the screen she saw what had shocked her brothers. The figure on the screen looked just as shocked to see them. His face was as white as a sheet and gripped the computer desk just as hard as her brothers. She could see behind him that there were many people standing waiting for someone to say something. Looking back at her brothers she could tell that they were still in shock. She took that moment and decided to take things in her own hands. Skipping all protocol, she said the words that she had waited years to say:
           “Hi mom.”
          The figure on the other side of the screen promptly fainted.
