Dangerous Bond

Chapter 19 : You can't hide from me

Bulma was towed down a long dark corridor kicking and screaming by three of her skinny captors. How the Hell were they strong enough to move her like this?! It wasn't natural!

"Let GO of me you bastards! You are SO in for it! I'm gonna beat your asses up until you look like dog shit, YOU HEAR ME?!"

One of the strange purple things pulling her along turned its head and spat in her face.

"Shut up!" It cried, "You don't deserve to speak!"

"WHY NOT?! I never did anything to you!!"

"You were with The Murderer!" Another one shouted. It had a huge white scar that ran from the wrist of one arm, across its chest, and down the other arm to the wrist.

"Vegeta only did what Freiza made him do!" She cried, kicking the third Harathokin in the stomach and sending it sprawling against the wall. "It's... Not.... His... FAULT!!"

With that she hurled the remaining two away from her and took off down the corridor, footsteps echoing down its length.

'Where am I? Kami, may Vegeta find me soon... As for now...'

The wide eyed woman slid around the corner and dashed up a slight incline.

'I've gotta find a place to hide!'

She searched around wildly, eyes flicking about her surroundings in attempt to find a suitable place to hide.

'There! That door!'

Bulma ran over to it, using her amazing intellect to decode the lock within seconds. She could hear the sound of feet and angry cussing coming up from behind her. Pressing the final button she stepped back as the door slid open, then dashed inside.

She gasped.

'No way... Oh my Kami, this isn't happening... VEGETA!!!!'

The Vegetasei no ouji slammed to a stop and inclined his head upwards. He hadn't heard much from her, but that last thought had not sounded good.

'~Bulma! I'm coming! Just... Do somthing to let me know where you are, I can't sense you anywhere!~'

'Vegeta...' Her mind voice was weak. 'You aren't going to find me as long as you're down there, this I swear.'

'~What do you mean, onna?!~'

'Vegeta I'm in,' Her mind voice cracked, 'I'm in space...'

'~Nani?!~'

No way! She couldn't be in space! Reaching out with his mind the prince scanned the nearby area. As small as her ki was, he could sense it.

"AS IF THINGS COULD GET ANY WORSE!!"

Reaching under his pristine white breastplate Vegeta drew out the one and only capsule he had with him.

Pressing the button he flicked it away from himself and drew back slightly as it exploded with yellow smoke. As the sickening sulphar-like gas blew away a VERY large ship was revealed. It was a light, almost white silver, with a long sleek nose lined from the tip to three metres in with metalic purple filled holes. It had no wings, but a circle of boosters/guns sat on long, sturdy poles from the sides. The very back was a large main rocket, one capable of pushing the craft to 7x the speed of light.

Vegeta almost chuckled as he got on board; the onna would love this when they landed, she'd also be VERY angry at him. He slammed the hatch shut behind him and activated the lights before slinging himself into the largest chair and guiding the ship from the ground.

'Alright, Harathokin scum, I'm coming for you and there's not a thing you can do to stop me...'

Back in space Bulma was thrown into a dark, dank containment cell. She shivered as the clammy air encircled her body and leant back against the wall, trying to forget about what such action was probably doing to her clothing. How would Vegeta get to her now? Her view from the main bridge when she had stumbled apon it had been of space, the ship in orbit of Earth.

She'd also seen Harathokins, TONS of them. Obviously Vegeta hadn't done as well as he'd thought, every station on the bridge had been manned, with plenty of spares hanging around doing nothing much. Could he safely fight that many while protecting her sorry arse even if he did find them?

She pulled her legs to her chin and wrapped her arms arround them, trembling miserably with cold.

'Oh Vegeta... Find me soon...'

Up on the bridge the cheif Harathokin watched his people go about their work. Ha, he'd have that no-good scum bag of a monkey soon enough. He'd seen how the man had reacted upon the theft of his whore so he knew Vegeta's weakness. The woman. Soon he'd have his people's killer down and begging. Soon enough.
