Hello! Nice to see you all again! OK, well here is a new epic, alternate universe! <ooooooo aaaaaahhhhhhh> Well, so this story won’t confuse, if the little rhyming paragraph above hadn’t already confused you, Vegeta runs away from his job with Freeza. Tired of his cruel master he leaves in a space pod, destiny unknown. He will land on the planet earth. In this story Radditz never came, Nappa didn’t join Vegeta, Vegeta just ran away. Yamchua is a fighter, but he is not dating Bulma, he is just a character in this story that is part of the Z-team. Vegeta will land in the woods just beyond Bulma’s house and when she goes to investigate his landing that is where he will meet her. Vegeta, at times in this story, may seem out of character mainly because he will be scared and confused because he is afraid Freeza will find him, which he eventually does. So you know, normal disclaimers. I don’t own DBZ and never will. I just love it. Heehee, I hope you enjoy this story as much as I will enjoy writing it. Ja ne!

There was a loud crash just beyond her home. Bulma was jostled off of the couch, luckily her tea didn’t tip over. With a loud sigh she set her tea back onto the coffee table and decide to check out where the crash took place. She was too curios for her own good, but she found the element of not knowing something exhilarating. She gathered her supplies, that conveniently fit into one of her company’s capsules, and headed off on one of her many motorbikes, driving towards the smoke that rose from the woods that laid near her house.

Vegeta awoke from his four month sleep. Had he finally arrived to his new home? He pushed the door open, unknowing what to expect. He didn’t even know what planet he landed on. All he knew at that time was that he needed to get the hell out of there. :::He blasted the guards that tried to stop him but they soon failed and jumped into the seat in the pod. He punched the button that read, “START” and headed off towards the planet that had been already programmed into it’s computer. Vegeta didn’t even take one last look at the base that was his “home”, he left, hoping his destiny would be more appealing then that “jail cell.”::: The sun was bright as it shown through the trees. Soon his eyes adjusted to the light as he looked around, his scouter beeping, scrolling information about his new surroundings. Vegeta nodded, “This is a suitable place to set up camp. My new home…”

He was soon startled at the noise of branches braking about 50 meters away. He punched his scouter trying to get readings on the creature that was approaching him. “Humanoid, female, 5’5 ft., 110 lbs., blue hair, blue eyes, most likely peaceful.” Satisfied with the scouter’s assumption he thought it would be intriguing to examine her, maybe even meet her. *This will be my first encounter with some one from this planet, maybe I could get some information from this person as well. Hmn…* Vegeta crouched behind some trees and awaited the arrival of whoever was approaching.

Bulma excitedly ran up to the sphere shape object that lay right in front of her. “Amazing, this thing came from the sky! It must’ve came from another planet. I wonder where. I wonder if there is someone, or something, inside of it.” Amazed by this object Bulma quickly began trying to open it. Trying to find a door, but was VERY unsuccessful. During her ordeal of trying to open up the pod she heard a snicker coming from behind her. She quickly turned around to see nothing but the woods. *I wonder what that was?* “Hello? Is some one there?”

Vegeta sat in his hiding place, trying to hold his laughter. It was truly humorous how she was trying to open his pod. But besides her stupidity, he noticed her beauty. *She is a very beautiful creature. I can’t wait to meet her, I just wanna see her make a fool of herself again. It’s quite funny.” He looked back at her, planning on waiting just a couple more moments before he was to show himself to her. Bulma, deciding that it was just her head went back to trying to open the pod. After a few more failed attempts she felt a tap on her shoulder. She stopped what she was doing and stood very still. She turned around slowly to face a man that was about an inch taller than she, his hair standing high with an exaggerated widows peak. His ebony eyes stared at her and his arms, sheathed in muscle, were crossed over his chest. His posture was high like a noble. He wore a black sleeveless spandex fighting suit and gold and white armor that went over his chest. He had white gloves and gold tipped shoes. She had to admit that he was quite handsome. The thing that attracted her attention the most was his brown tail that was wrapped tightly around his waist. *That tail, is exactly like Goku’s before we cut it off.* She gasped at him and took a few steps back until she rammed herself into the pod. He smirked at her fear and stepped closer to her. “Tell me, what planet is this?”

“Uh… er… It’s the planet Earth.”

“Hmn… Earth. I like it, this’ll be my new home. So what do you call yourselves?”

“We are called humans.” Bulma had a confused face as she answered his questions. *What is he?* “Um… what are you?”

Vegeta smirked again and uncrossed his arms, “Oh my, excuse my rudeness. My name is Vegeta. I am prince of Vegetasei. I am a saiyan and am the strongest fighter in the universe. And this planet, you call earth, shall be my home.”

Bulma glared wonderingly at Vegeta. She was unsure of what to say and was beginning to get nervous with him staring at her the way he was. “You know I have a friend who used to have a tail just like you.”

Vegeta lifted his head higher at the mention of her friend. *Another saiyan, hmn…* “Oh you do? A saiyan huh? Here? How fascinating, I must meet him, later. As for now, tell me about your world.”

Bulma looked at him. *Well he has no home and there must be a reason he is here. I guess I will just find out.* “OK then.”

Vegeta sat down and leaned again a tree. Bulma did the same and sat against a tree that was next to Vegeta. Determined to find out more about this prince she began explaining to him about the earth. Vegeta watched her as she talked. *She is quite a beautiful creature. What a coincidence that we met. It is quite strange how destinies collide.*
