In the kitchen of Capsule Corporation sat all the Z-Warriors who had participated in the search for the androids that had gone on earlier that day. They were all discussing what they were to do now that one got away. They needed to know their next step.
"So now what are we going to do? How are we going to find Android 20?" asked Krillin, the question they were all expecting to hear.
"Yeah you guys, he doesn't have a power level, and he seems to be bent on killing Goku," added Yamcha, only succeeding in adding what they had already noticed.
Piccolo's attention diverted away from the others for a split second. He looked toward the door at a shadow passing by that had been caught in the peripheral vision of his keen eyes. Curiosity overcame him, and so he sensed out who it was.
It's Vegeta… Piccolo realized after recognizing the ki.
Piccolo thought over what he had just seen for a while, completely oblivious of what the others were now talking about. Let's see, I know that Vegeta's room must be in the opposite direction that he's going in, because he went there to sleep if I recall correctly. So why is it that he is going in the opposite direction of his room? thought Piccolo quizzically, Wait a minute, Goku is that way, and by the feel of her ki, she's sleeping. Why is he headed over there?
"Piccolo, are you alright? You look sort of tense," pointed out Tien in concern.
"Hmm?" hummed Piccolo, directing his attention toward the group again, "No, I'm completely fine, just a bit distracted."
"So anyways, where were we? Oh yeah, that's right, Krillin had a point there. How are we going to find him? It would be nearly impossible! He has no ki signature," said Tien.
"You're absolutely right, Tien. That would pose a problem. It seems our only option is that we're going to have to wait until he comes out of hiding," contemplated Piccolo.
"That's it? Just wait like sitting ducks. He could get stronger! I don't know about you guys, but I've already died once, and I don't like the idea of never being able to return to the living world ever again," spoke Yamcha, twiddling his thumbs nervously.
For a moment, they all just sat, and stared off into the distance, each deep in their own thoughts. That is, until Gohan broke the silence. "Then we'll just have to train harder!" Gohan said with unfaltering determination.
"Gohan's right, Yamcha. There have been plenty of warriors who have fought, and died without ever getting the opportunity to be revived. You should be grateful that you did. Now is not the time for any of us to become cowards, and run away from the problems of our world," lectured Piccolo.
Just as Yamcha was about to speak, everyone in the room heard the tapping of footsteps coming from down the hall. Unbeknownst to them, the footsteps were coming from Goku, who at the moment, wasn't really aware of things around her. She was in some sort of trance, and she could really care less where she was headed. She just needed to get as far away from Vegeta as possible, lest she lose control of her rational thoughts and return to him. If that happened, she might end up doing something she would later regret. She walked straight into the kitchen, and was broken out of the trance when she saw all of the Z-Fighters ogling her.
For a moment, she just stood there, completely oblivious. She frowned when she realized none of them were going to acknowledge her, other than staring at her. She trailed the direction of their stares, which led down to her torso. Immediately, her cheeks turned a bright red. The whole upper-half of the night shirt she had borrowed from Bulma was ripped in half down the middle, exposing her breasts.
Everything she had been thinking about before fled her mind as panic took over. She let out a little yelp as her arms snapped together to form a cover for her bare skin. Her cheeks flushed an even brighter crimson as she realized they were all still staring at her with those same shocked faces. Her mouth opened, and closed, but she couldn't seem to find any words that fit to explain the situation at hand. She couldn't tell them about what had happened between her, and Vegeta!
"S-Sorry, I… uh… must have… um… ripped my blouse by accident," Goku explained nervously. She paused, and took a deep breath, taking a moment to think up something else to say, but found that she couldn't. "Well, um… goodnight," she mumbled, fleeing out of the room faster than any of the others in the room thought was even possible.
"Well, that was certainly an unexpected experience," commented Krillin, his jaw nearly hitting the floor.
Gohan fell out of his chair, very shaken up, possibly even traumatized. Tien was actually blushing a little bit, ashamed that he actually might have enjoyed what he saw. Yamcha was the one with the most pleasure written on his face. He immediately made an excuse to leave the room, hoping the others didn't notice how broad the smile on his face was.
Vegeta, what did you do to her? thought Piccolo to himself in slight disgust, finally realizing that his theory of Vegeta's intentions for Goku were true.
Goku walked quickly down the hallway trembling from what had just happened. She was still covering her breasts with her hands tightly, and had no idea what she was going to do. Questions kept popping in and out of her mind. She knew there was no way she would be able to fall asleep again that night!
𖦹𖦹𖦹
Early the next morning, Bulma, Krillin, Yamcha, and Gohan were sitting at the breakfast table, waiting for Bulma's Mom to finish cooking their breakfast. Mr. Briefs was off in the lab, as usual. Vegeta was letting out some steam in the gravity machine room, and Goku had finally been able to fall asleep.
Krillin and Yamcha had both decided to spend the night. Gohan had also spent the night, even if his mother was going to blow up on him at some point because of it.
Goku tossed and turned in some random guestroom bed she had happened upon. She couldn't stay asleep. She kept picturing what had happened between her and Vegeta the night before. She was still sore from yesterday, and felt awful.
She wasn't in a great mood to begin with, and to add to that her stomach hurt really bad! She woke up and sat erect in bed, while looking down at the floor wearily. It wasn't long before she noticed a red spot on her pants.
That's weird, she thought to herself.
Goku got up and out of bed, trudging toward the bathroom to check it out. She pulled off her pants, and underwear to see if it had seeped into her panties also. She gasped, and jumped back from what she saw, dropping her underwear on the floor. The substance was all over her underwear!
Is this blood? she questioned herself.
She looked down at her crotch curiously, and saw some blood dripping out of it. She gasped a second time, and stormed out of her room.
She ran all the way to the kitchen where Bulma was, screaming, "Bulma! My privates are bleeding!"
The second she got into the kitchen everyone gasped. Bulma threw her hands over Gohan's face, and Krillin did the same to Yamcha, looking away.
"Goku, why don't you go up to your room, and I'll explain all the wonders of Menstruation," suggested Bulma, frowning and turning her head away from Goku's half-naked form, "And please, do cover yourself up…"
"Um, okay, Bulma," answered Goku, blushing slightly, and immediately exiting the room.
I could be fatally bleeding from my insides, and Bulma's worrying about telling me something having to do with Me… menu… stration… sometimes I just don't get Bulma, thought Goku with a deep sigh.
