(In the living room)
"Don�t tell me I�m wrong! You are!"
"Woman! I do not need a vacation!"
"Yes you do!"
"I would rather stay here and take care of these pesky brats, then go on some meaningless vacation any day!"
"Brats!? We�re not brats!" Trunks said as Bra came in and joined him.
"BOTH OF YOU SHUT UP!" said Bulma and Vegeta, then came to face each other again.
"Your going or I�ll...I�ll" Bulma thought for a second and then gave him an evil eye completed with a smirk similar to Vegeta, but worse.
"I�ll what?!" Vegeta was scared, he learned a long time ago that if he let his guard down when she was pissed he would suffer, terribly, and painfully because you never know what she could come up with!
"I�ll self detonate the Gravity Chamber! So you go with me, or say �bye-bye� to your precious Gravity Chamber!" she added, "Forever!"
"NO! YOU WOULDN�T!"
"HELL YES, I WOULD!"
"You can�t!"
"Watch me" Bulma pulled out a remote control device that had a huge red button on it.
"Mom? What's that?" Trunks asked pointing at the thing in her hands.
"This?" she lifted it up.
"yeah"
"This baby right here is what will self detonate the gravity chamber."
Bulma explained.
"I put a bomb in the gravity chamber when I built it. I knew that it might come in handy some day and it just did."
"Woman I�ll go with you, but please don�t do it."
"Vegeta?"
"Training is the Saiyan way. I need to train, it�s in my blood and it�s what I desire. It�s practically my life. So please don�t destroy it. Please?"
"Vegeta, you know I was going to let you take it with us. But you will be permitted to use it only on a cretin schedule, that I myself fixed up for you."
"You were? Then why did you...." Vegeta thought for a moment.
*Bulma you sly girl! No wonder I fell in love with you. That attitude just like mine. You are smart, beautiful, stands up to me, the Prince of all Sayian�s, no matter what the odds are. You fear nothing, brave as you may be, I�ll still be there just in case. Just in case. That Yamcha would never have a chance with you, never. Not as long as I�m around and believe me I won�t be leaving!
"That's my woman!" starts pointing towards Bulma. Bulma smiles happily.
"What just happened there?" Reda asked, confused.
"I don�t know, I never understood my parents." Trunks said.
"Hey there Goten!" Reda runs up to Goten and gives him a long warm hug. She notices Bra and hugs her too, but not as she did to Goten.
"Hello Bra, you missed the food! It was so good! Did you know that your mom is such a great cook!"
"Yeah I know."
"She would have to be to keep us Sayian�s satisfied." added Trunks.
"Goten, Bra what were you two doing?" Reda asked. Goten and Bra blushed and fell silent. Goten spoke up.
"We were discussing math problems, Bra hates her Geometry teacher."
"Sure you were Goten"
"What's that supposed to mean Trunks?"
"You are not the smartest person here, in fact your not even....." (Bam! Pow! uhh!)
In less than 5 seconds, Trunks had a huge red mark on his forehead.
"Trunks never diss me like that!"
"OH! TRUNKS! are you ok?" Reda ran over to him.
"HUH?" Goten was left standing.
"Sure Reda I�m fine. Nothing serious, you know."
"Besides, Goten is still not as strong as me."
"Nothing serious? You have got to be kidding look at what he did to you!"
"Why I otta!" Reda turns her head halfway, giving Goten a bad look. She was disappointed in him.
"What?"
"Oh nothing...except you just punched your best friend on the head!"
"Look Reda, Trunks and used to fight when we were kids. It�s not like one punch will give him brain damage!"
"You say that now, but just watch and see."
"Sorry Reda."
"ok Goten, but try not to punch him again."
"sure"
"You believe him?!" Trunks was not confident in Goten�s words.
"SHUT UP TRUNKS!" yelled Goten.
"Sure I do."
"you do?" Goten was now surprised.
"Stop playing around Goten, now let�s get to work!"
"Work?"
"Yeah! That's what I came here for in the first place. Trunks and Bulma will have to test my invention. Then we could have some spare time." she whispers the rest, "alone."
"Alright! Let�s get to work!" Goten was in a rush. Everyone followed Bulma and Trunks to the lab.
(while on the way to the lab)
"umm...Reda?"
"Yeah?"
"What exactly are we going to do?"
"Well were gonna test these to motorcycle's to see if they are the same speed, If they are it means that I made no errors and I will be able to submit my invention. That is if it is fast enough. Then we�ll have to power them up and add new batteries for tomorrows presentation."
"Ok! I need you and you to help me calculate this." Reda pointed to Trunks and Bulma.
"Goten you will ride your motorcycle and....." she looked around, Vegeta had already left to continue his training in the gravity chamber. (before Bulma kicks him out of it again) So there was nobody left to ride the other bike except....
"BRA!"
"huh? what? what happened?"
"BRA! WE NEED YOU!"
"me?"
"Bra can you ride a motorcycle?"
"Yes, Why?"
"GREAT! Come here, you will be riding my motorcycle. Goten will be riding the other one, both of you have to run 100 laps around..."
"around?"
"Bulma!"
"Yes?"
"Do you know where the best place to test this would be?"
"Why don�t you just test it on top of the ocean? That way if one of them falls injured, they won�t hit the hard ground, but the water."
"Bulma your a genius!"
"I know, I know"
"The ocean it is! Everyone outside!"
(at the beach)
Trunks remembered something.
"Wait a sec! 100 laps? Don�t you think that's pushing it?" Trunks asked. Reda smiled.
"These babies aren�t slow you know." she patted each motorcycle, "I made them fast and light weight, so it can be easier to carry around.
"Wow, Reda you out did yourself" Bra thought. *Show off!*
"I am so proud of myself. Right Goten?"
"right" Bra remembered that she was to race up against Goten.
"Wait! Me and Goten?"
"Yeah sis, are you up to it?" Trunks asked doubtful of his sister.
"Of course I am!"
"get injured."
"TRUNKS!" Bra heard him.
"What it�s true"
"For your information Trunks I have ridden a motorcycle since dad didn�t teach me to fly, when I was young. So I assure you I drive perfectly well! When I don�t fly I ride these and there not as much difference from riding the regular and flying!"
"Suit yourself then Bra and don�t say I didn�t warn you!" Bra just ignored him and lifted her nose in the air.
"OK! Now that we got that settled, everyone get ready!" Reda was excited. When they got on top of the water. they could not believe how great the setting was. Afternoon, sun about to set, the ocean reflecting the suns rays. With the moon abut to come up. This was indeed a site to see. Bulma, Trunks, and Reda were in a helicopter waving down at Bra and Goten.
Bra looked at Goten, Goten looked at Bra. They both flew up to reach their motorcycle's which were already ready for them to get on. They got on their motorcycle's getting ready for the test, but for them it was a race. Their eyes showed no fear, no expression, just a nod from both as they got ready for the words that Reda would give them. They looked at each other again. It seemed like an eternity had passed till they finally let their eye�s disconnect and turned their heads to focus on the road.
*50 laps around the track with Goten* Bra thought.
*50 laps around the track with Bra* Goten thought.
*Hold it! What am I saying? It�s just Bra. Or is it?*
"Are you sure your ready Bra?"
"Ready as I�ll ever be Goten." Both nodded and focused back on the road.
Reda held up the speaker.
"On your marks, get ready, get set, GO!!!"
Off they went neither one not knowing how far they would go. If Goten won what would that prove? If Bra won what would that prove? Neither wanted to lose to the other, but at the same time didn�t want to win. Goten was in the head lead. Fallowed bye Bra. Bra was falling behind. Goten still up front.
*Come on Bra, I know your better than that.*
Say what you must,
Do as you wish
But remember,
Remember to think
I am here, you are there
I see you as a glimpse of light
Tiny, but there
Far, far away from me
But in some way, in some way
I will reach you
So never forget that I�ll be right there
By your side
Soon, If not later
But I will be there
Soon
It had seemed hours for both of them, but they knew that it wasn�t close to it. It must have been because they were together, there on top of the ocean or said to be track.
I am near him, closer, closer, and then I�m there. I reach you finally after so much effort. I reach you.
She�s here, I thought she wouldn�t make it. I guess I was wrong, I was wrong about many things. Such as her, judging her, she�s different in some way I could not describe. I don�t remember feeling this way next to anyone before now. But I have in her room, I felt the same way as now. But now it�s stronger.
Why won�t he pass me? I know he can pass me! Why won�t he?
I won�t go ahead, I don�t even think I can, not to miss this site. She�s better than I expected. Much better. She holds her face high in the air hitting the wind with no worry. Not caring whether her hair would messed up or if her makeup was ruined. She looked like she was wondering about something ,this I could tell. Then her face changed immediately, as if there where no signs of the wondering that she had moments before. She looked happy, for some reason this was amusing, her smile was indeed one of a kind then again his was too. I kept on staring and I stayed right next to her. I wanted this to last, but I knew it wouldn�t. After all this was a test and it would end eventually. EVENTUALLY.
He stared as if he knew I was thinking of something and was trying to read my thoughts. I quickly changed my face, so he couldn't tell. To my own surprise my curiousness changed into a smile. A warm pleasant smile. This was rather amusing to him, I could tell as he started to blush. Then I quickly looked back at the road.
She looked back at the road, so I couldn�t see her any longer. I looked back at the road and I could hear voices yelling at us for the first time in what seemed like hours.
"HEY GOTEN! BRA! YOUR ALMOST DONE! JUST A FEW MORE LAP�S!"
Just a few more, just a few more to stay next to him.
Just a few more, just a few more to stay next to her.
"Well Goten ready to finish?"
"Sure, let�s go"
What will happen next?
"US?"
"Sure, I mean it�s no different from today."
No response came from them.
"Alright then it�s settled!"
Stay tuned in for Chapter 5!
