After GT-- Life Without the Dragonballs-- Love Is a Battlefield; The Winner Takes Goten (c)
by SSBra
Vegeta finally set down upon the grounds of Capsule Corp. and could feel something in the air. There was a tension about the place-- one like he had never felt. "I'm gone for a few hours and these people tear themselves apart," he huffed as he walked through the door. He was almost knocked over by Goten who was trying to get away from Chi-Chi. "Watch it, Brat!!" He scowled to Goten.
"It doesn't matter if you're mad, Vegeta-sama. I have a feeling you're going to get even madder," Goten shrugged his shoulders and ran away.
"What in the Hell did he mean by that?" He growled to Chi-Chi.
"It's a long story, Vegeta. I think Bulma had better tell you," Chi-Chi said before waving.
"Oh great! Bulma had better tell me. I wonder what that idiot baka of Kakarrot's has done now?" He asked as he walked into the living room.
"Where in the Hell have you been?" Bulma screamed as she put her hands upon her hips.
"Well, hello and how are you?" Vegeta smirked.
"Our whole family has went bat-shit crazy, and where were you when I needed you?!"
"Woman, you don't need me to help you go bat-shit crazy. You're already there," he laughed.
"Trunks and Pan are missing . . ."
"No, they're not."
"What do you mean, 'No they're not.'?"
"Well, if they were missing, no one would know where they are."
"Duh!!! That's what I just said!"
"Onna, I know where they are."
"Where are they?"
"Yeah, where are they?" Videl asked as she entered the living room.
"You better go get Kakarrot's eldest brat for this too."
"Is it that bad?!" Videl asked terrified.
"No, don't be silly, Human. He's her father, and he needs to hear this too." Videl nodded and ran to get her husband.
"What is all this secrecy, Vegeta?"
"Well, Woman, I saw something today. I have figured out that is what you are missing in your life. He held out a blue box with a white bow on it."
"What's this?" She asked looking at it curiously.
"Well, take it and open it." Bulma took the box from him and untied the bow. She opened the box to find a heart-shaped diamond the size of Dragonball.
"Vegeta?! It's beautiful!!!"
"Put it on," he smiled tenderly to her. Just then, Videl rounded the corner with Gohan in tow.
"Okay, Vegeta, so where is Pan?" Gohan asked.
"She's with Trunks," he stated simply.
"Well, where are they?" Bulma asked taking her eyes off her ring.
"They are in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber."
"WHAT?!?!" Videl exclaimed.
"Come on! We're heading to Dende's!!" Gohan exclaimed.
"I wouldn't do that. You can't stop them now," the Saiyan Prince stated.
"And why is that?" Gohan asked.
"Because, they are married now."
"Married?" Bulma gasped.
"Yes, I watched Dende perform the ceremony."
"You watched them get married?!!? And did nothing to stop them?!!?!" Gohan fumed.
"What could I have done? They're bonded, Brat. You can't stop a Saiyan bond. Believe me, I've tried," he smirked looking at Bulma.
"But, she'll have her baby in there. She'll need . . ." Videl trailed off.
"No one. Trunks has a book on how to deliver a baby."
"He's going to deliver a baby by reading a book?!?" Gohan almost fainted. The thought of his little Panny in the care of Trunks, who knew nothing about delivering children, scared him to death.
"He's a smart kid, Gohan. They'll be fine," Bulma tried to comfort him.
"Yeah, Trunks isn't dumb as a rock like Goten," Vegeta laughed. Gohan began to laugh too, which puzzled the Saiyan Prince.
"Why are you laughing?"
"He doesn't know yet, does he?" Gohan said between chortles.
"No, he doesn't," Bulma looked down at the floor.
"Doesn't know what?" He raised an eyebrow to his mate.
"Well, I think we'll leave you alone and wait for Pan and Trunks to come home. See you tomorrow at nine," Videl waved as she dragged a snickering Gohan away from Vegeta and Bulma.
"What is going on, Onna?"
"Well, sit down," Bulma walked over to the couch.
"The last time you told me to sit down, you were pregnant with Bra. You're not pregnant, are you!?" Vegeta asked.
"No, silly, I'm too old to have another baby. But, it's funny that you mentioned Bra," Bulma began.
"Trunks!!!" Pan woke from her slumber.
"Pan, what's wrong?!" He jumped up.
"My water just broke!"
"Oh, Dende! Are you serious?"
"No, I'm just playing!! OF COURSE I'M SERIOUS!!!!!!!" She screamed.
"Okay, I know what to do!" Trunks said calmly. 'She's sure her grandmother's daughter,' he thought as he remembered how Chi-Chi would scream at him and Goten when they were children. He picked his wife up and took her outside onto the 'porch' of the time chamber. "Just hold tight, my love. I'll be back with the things I need."
"Where am I going to go? France?!?!" She spat. She didn't mean to be so ugly to him, but she was in tremendous pain. Not in all her life, had she experienced such excruciating pain. "Please hurry, Trunks!" Trunks ran into their bedroom and opened his bag. He popped open the capsule case that housed the things he would need to deliver their baby. Running to Pan, he felt a cold chill run down his spine. It was the same cold chill he felt before Pan was killed on their journey to find the Black Star Dragonballs. 'I won't let her die again!'
"Okay, Pan, I'm going to remove your clothes," he said softly as he removed her gown. He propped her up with a pillow and her gown so that she was sitting up. "Now, you're going to have to push and breathe; just like we've been practicing."
She simply nodded and began to breathe the way Trunks had taught her to. "I'm in so much pain, Trunks!"
"I know you are, baby. It won't be long now until we have a son or daughter," he said as he timed her contractions. He brushed back her sweat-soaked hair and placed a kiss gently upon her forehead.
"Good Marron!!! Again!!!" Eighteen instructed her daughter as she taught her some Savat kicks.
"Am I doing that good, Kassan?" Marron asked as she kicked into the air.
"You're doing very well for someone who's had no prior training," Krillin added.
"I'll show that stuck-up bitch who's boss!" Marron spat.
"Marron!!" Krillin was certainly surprised at his former genteel daughter. She never said a cross word to anyone before today.
"Now, Marron, we have to concentrate on your Ki. You have a very high Ki, being a quarter-Android."
"You mean, I can shoot beams like you and Papa?"
"Yes, you can. Now, Marron concentrate all your energy on that tree over there," Krillin suggested.
"Okay," she put her arms up and focused all her Ki onto the tree. "AAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!" She screamed as blasts shot out from her hands wildly.
"Get down!!" Eighteen screamed as she tackled her husband.
"Gomen nasai!! Papa, are you okay?" Marron ran to her parents.
"I'm fine, Marron-chan."
"Well, we know she can do it. Now, she's just gotta control it," Juu smiled down her husband.
"Bra? What has she done now?" Vegeta sighed as he thought of his troublesome daughter. She was so precious to him, but she was also very precocious.
"Well, she's done something very Saiyan."
"Huh? Bra? Doing something Saiyan? I don't believe it."
"She'scausedMarrontochallengehertofightforamate," Bulma said very fast, hoping that Vegeta wouldn't understand her.
"WHAT?! Wait a minute, isn't Marron's mate, Goten?"
"Yes," she said softly.
"YOU MEAN TO TELL ME THAT ANOTHER ONE OF MY BRATS IS GOING TO END UP WITH ANOTHER OF KAKARROT'S SPAWN?!?!!" He shouted so loud it blew the roof off Capsule Corp.
