A/N � This fic is the
sequel to �Project 109� if you want to understand this one properly you should probably
read the first one (it�s a good fic, got over 500 reviews!) But if you don�t want
to you�ll probably understand what�s happening after a while.
~~~~~~~~~~~
�You bastard!� Bulma spat in Coolers direction as the guards dragged her out of this throne room, �I swear to God if you touch my son again I�m going to kill you! Do you hear me you bastard I�m going to fucking kill you!�
�I sure you�ll try.� Cooler yawned and waved at her as she was dragged out of his sight around a corner.
�Let me go!� Bulma struggled to her feet and wrenched her arms out of the guards hold, �I am a royal Princess of the Cold family, I don�t care what your orders are from Cooler, if you touch me again I�m going to rip out your heart and feed it to you! Got that!�
�Y�yes your highness�� The guard stepped back as Bulma ground her teeth and strode past him, massaging her arm where�s he�d grabbed her.
She walked the rest of the way to her room in silence, aware of the guard following her closely, making sure she didn�t make a break for the cargo bay and steal a ship. There was no point in that however, she would never leave Trunks in the hands of that madman Cooler.
She hadn�t believed that Cooler would really get away with her kidnapping those seven long years ago, she�s expected Vegeta to appear on the ships scanners at any moment and rescuer her. But he hadn�t come.
He�d probably forgotten all about her by now.
Bulma opened the door to her room and slipped inside, smiling at Trunks gently when he looked up at her, he was such a brave boy and so much like his father it hurt. He hadn�t even cried when Cooler had crushed his wrist and shattered his arm, he�d just stood there with that impassive look on his face.
�How�s your wrist doing honey?� Bulma peered at her son�s cast and hugged him,
�It�s ok mom, it hurt a little before but it wasn�t anything Cooler hadn�t done to me before.� Trunks hugged her back, �Did he hurt you at all?�
Bulma shuddered as she remember how Cooler had broken both her legs when he�d kidnapped her, �No�he didn�t hurt me this time.� She shook herself out of her
memories and glanced down at her saiyan son.
Don�t worry Trunks, I�m going to get us out of here
soon�I�m going to get us home to your father�to Vegeta.

Vegeta stared at the file
photo again, it was the only picture he had of her, of his woman.
She was younger in the
picture then she had been when he�d met her, still in her late teens, her hair
was longer and she looked healthier�and yet in the picture she seemed sad and
scared.
He tossed the picture
aside and closed his eye�s remembering when he�d first walked in the room and
seen her; she�d been standing next to Jay, still in her combat uniform with her
hair all tousled from work. He�d seen her and wanted on the spot, of course she
hadn�t been quite so taken with him.
�Bulma�� Vegeta let out a
sigh and opened his eyes, smiling slightly as he remembered how she�d managed
to lie her way out of meeting him. She�d had food
poisoning, been busy, been busy, been sleeping and then of course the first
time he�d succeeded in forcing her to come and see him she�d been drunk so he�d
been unable to do anything with her then.
But of course she hadn�t
resisted all that long, one look at him with his shirt
off, all sweaty from training and been all over him.
Who would have though that
he; Vegeta the prince of all saiyans would have fallen for a freak lab creation
like her?
But once again fate hadn�t
allowed him to enjoy her presence for long, King Cold had kidnapped her and
then when he�d finally caught up to her, had finally found out she was pregnant
with his child that Bastard Cooler had
kidnapped her AGAIN!
And he hadn�t even been
there to try to save her�he hadn�t been around when she�d needed him the most.
She was probably in some
secluded section of the galaxy now, raising his son almost those Freakish
Colds�if Cooler had even allowed his child to live.
But then Bulma was in
effect Frieza�s daughter, which made the child she�d been carrying Cooler�s
niece or nephew.
�Sir?� Vegeta turned around and glared at Chichi who stood
in the centre of the room, she�s grown into a beautiful young woman during the
seven years that Bulma had been away, he could hardly believe that she was the
same girl who had killed King Cold.
�What is it?� He stood up
and gestured at her to speak.
�I just received word from
Eighteen and Jay, they�ve just docked at the space
port that circles that planet Callistra, they asked me to inform you that after
this they�re going to need to return home.�
�Fine, now leave.� Vegeta
glared harder, not surprised when Chichi rolled her eyes and gave him the
finger,
�You saiyan�s are all the
same�� She slammed the door hard behind her.
�Damned
woman.� Vegeta made a mental note
to have little talk with Goku and his mate�s disrespectful manner, honestly
just because the damned banshee had helped rescue Bulma and himself from planet
Cold she though she could talk to him anyway she liked.
Vegeta pulled up a star
map and the computer and found planet Callistra, it was a small ice planet that
was rotating around the star Iscaria.
�Seven years�� Vegeta
mumbled as he tried to imagine what his son would look like � would he look
like himself? Like Bulma? Like any of the numerous people who had donated their
DNA to create Bulma?
�Bulma�� Vegeta sank
rested his head in his hands as he tried to chase the same images of her out of
his mind that had been haunting him for seven long. Long years�
**********
Eighteen yawned and
stretched as she waited for Jay to dock the ship, she felt strangely confident
that this time they�d find some trace of Bulma. This was just the sort of
planet that Cooler would head too and heaven knows it was the only planet they
hadn�t searched in this particular area of the galaxy.
�Well Eighteen�any
idea�s as to where we should start looking first?� Jay didn�t bother to turn to
speak to her, he kept his eyes on the screen as he
carefully landed the ship.
Eighteen hesitated before
answering, she didn�t trust Jay completely, who would after all the pain and
suffering he�d caused.
Jay, Bulma�s twin brother
had been the one to help King Cold kidnap Bulma the first time. He�d betrayed
Vegeta and had handed her over to the insane and freakish Cold family.
Eighteen would have loved
to have been there when Vegeta and Jay had had their �secret� talk. They had
though Jay was dead after the war was over until Vegeta had found him and had
dragged him off somewhere, no body knew what Jay had said to Vegeta, but
whatever it was it had saved his life and had apparently cooled Vegeta�s temper
down.
�I think we should try a
space bar, you know ask all the shipping captains if they�ve heard any rumours
from out this way about Bulma.� Eighteen raised her eyebrows and she glanced at
Jay, �Sound good?�
�Works
for me.� Jay opened the air lock
and gestured for Eighteen to go before him, �I just
hope we find something this time.� He said softly as he followed behind.
