Chapter 4: Step 2


Once Bulma had finished fixing the saiyan prince's gravity machine, she went back into her lab. There was still the matter of High-Tech Corporation to deal with. Even though she had called the police on the dishonorable company, she still had her own revenge to get. No one messed with Bulma Briefs and got away with it. Of that she would make sure of.

Sitting on the stool in front of the small robot, she got out another cable and hooked it up to both the robot and the computer. Then she began to create a very nasty virus for the tiny vessel to hold. It took a little while to make a virus mean enough to cause a very huge problem for High-Tech Corporation. It was worth it however, when she finished and transferred it to the little metallic creation that could very well bring the company's demise.

She opened the window to her lab and programmed the robot to return to its home. She smiled a wicked smile as she watched it leave. The power was in her hands now and she couldn't wait for that asshole of a company president to find out that his little spy hadn't come back with useful information but something far more sinister.

Closing the program and getting rid of her newly created virus, she opened up the files she would be working on for the rest of the day. It was the first specimen of DNA from the rocket that had returned first. She was excited to see what the DNA did for its owner and that excitement was well placed. It appeared that the DNA gave its owner the ability to move objects with their mind and telepathy. She watched the footage the rocket had collected of the inhabitants on the planet.

While mostly peaceful in nature, they certainly weren't afraid to fight when the occasion called for it. She enjoyed viewing the footage, it gave her an idea of the new abilities she would be gaining and how she should use them best.

Once done with looking over everything she needed to, she began working on the actual DNA. She needed to make sure it wouldn't alter her appearance drastically as the species on the planet it came from was very different in appearance than humans were.

Bulma slaved about on the DNA for a week until she was finally satisfied that there would be no adverse affects to the injection she created. She wanted to use it on herself before she contacted Chi Chi, that woman worried far too much for her own good. A thought struck her though as she was readying the needle. She really needed to get the saiyan DNA before she began injecting a bunch of different types of DNA into her. Not only was saiyan DNA extremely resilient against any illnesses should their be any in the DNA she was using, but there was also the clever Vegeta she'd have to get around. If she asked him to come in for a DNA sample he would be suspicious, regardless if she claimed it to be for research only. Her best bet would be to ask Goku as he was the less suspicious of the two. He of course would have his own curiosity, but that she could deal with better than the sharp minded Vegeta. Plus she could just say she wanted him to pay her a visit as well.

With that in mind she went over to her phone and dialed the Son household. It rang twice before someone picked up the phone.

{Hello?}

It was Chi Chi.

"Hi Chi Chi. Is Goku around? I need to ask him for a favor."

{Sure. Let me just go and get him. He's playing about with Gohan. You know how those two are. I swear it's like I have two children instead of one!}

Bulma giggled as Chi Chi's rant continued out the door as she went to fetch the Son patriarch.

{Bulma?}

"Hey Goku! Its been a while. How 'ya been?"

{Greeaaat! How are you doing? Vegeta hasn't blown up anything has he?}

"Haha! No! He's been surprisingly calm lately. As long as the gravity chamber's still working that is. Anyways, to get more to the point of why I called you. I need you to come over so I can get a sample of your DNA."

{...Uh, why?}

"For some research I'm doing on saiyans. Besides I haven't seen you in so long! It's time you paid me a visit mister!"

{But Bulma! Doesn't getting a sample of my DNA involve using a needle on me!!!}

Goku was quickly beginning to freak out at the concept of a needle coming into contact with his skin. Luckily Bulma had already thought of that.

"Stop worrying so much Goku. I have a special spray that'll gather your DNA sample when sprayed at you."

{Really?! Wow, that's amazing Bulma. You sure are smart. I never would have thought of that. Okay, I'll do it. Be right over!}

"You will?! Oh, thank you Goku! See you when you get here!"

{Ok, bye!}

"Goodbye!"

Bulma felt guilty for lying to someone she thought of as her closest family, but it was for the good of the earth. Besides it would be easier this way. With any luck Goku would never catch on to what was about to happen to him.

She set up the needle and hid it nearby as she waited for Goku. She only had a few minutes to spare before he would come popping in, so she got the spray out that would ultimately help her in her deception. Sure enough a few minutes later Goku appeared in the room, scaring the shit out of poor Bulma.

"Hi Bulma!"

"Ahhh! GOKU! Can't you use the door or at least the window! Anything other than popping in out of nowhere like that! Kami!"

"Heh heh. Sorry Bulma. So where's that cool spray you said could take my DNA sample without using a needle?" He looked around the roomed and spotted it.

Going over, he picked it up to have a look at it.

"Huh, how's it work? Just spray it?" He fiddled with it as he examined it.

Unfortunately for Goku, but very fortunate for Bulma, Goku managed to spray himself right in the face. He was knocked out instantly as Bulma had designed the fumes to be so powerful that even a saiyan couldn't stay conscious in it's presence. She waited until the mist died down so she wouldn't be affected by it and got her needle out.

Walking over to Goku she worked quickly to get several samples of DNA before tending to the unconscious saiyan. She stored the samples in the freezer then went to Goku to try and wake him. She shook him as hard as she could but it would seem she had made the spray too strong. He just wouldn't wake up!

Finally she gave up and just decided to wait for him to wake up on his own. She went over to her computer and sat down, pulling up the files from the first DNA sample to go over once more. Everything had to be perfect before she injected herself with the needle that held not only held new powers but possibly a new appearance as well. She really hoped that wouldn't be the case, but one had to be ready for anything.

After reading for an hour over all of her notes to check over her work, a groan was heard from the floor. Bulma removed her glasses to look at Goku. He was waking. She quickly closed her files and went over to him.

"Hey there sleepy head. I was wondering when you would be waking up."

"Huh? What happened?" Goku sat up and rubbed his eyes.

"You sprayed yourself in the face silly! It made you fall asleep."

"I did? How long was I asleep?"

"For about an hour. Nothing to worry about. I would like to check you over to make sure that spray didn't cause any damage though before we leave the lab."

"Okay. So you got your DNA sample then?"

"Yep, thanks a bunch for letting me get it. It's very important for my research."

"Darn. I wanted to see how the spray took my DNA. Oh well, at least you got what you needed. Hey can we get some food after you check me? I'm starving!"

"Haha! How about I order some pizzas after we're done and invite Gohan and Chi Chi to eat with us?"

"YEAHHH! That sounds greaaattt!" Goku ran over to the metal table with the thin white sheet placed over it and jumped onto it.

'Just like a big kid. Poor Chi Chi.' Bulma smiled and managed to hold her giggles in as she went to look Goku over for any weird affects the spray may have had on him.

Finding everything to be okay with her tall saiyan friend, she let Goku go to get his family while she ordered enough pizzas to feed a large army. After all, she had not one, but two full saiyans and one half saiyan that ate just like a full blooded one.

Goku arrived in the living room area with his family and Bulma greeted them. She talked with Chi Chi while Goku took Gohan outside to see Vegeta. As soon as the two males left Chi Chi leant over and started speaking in hushed whispers.

"So how's it coming?"

"Wonderfully. How are you doing?"

"Great! I'm gaining on another and should pass them soon."

"Oh same here! I wish we could test ourselves somehow to see how we're really doing."

"Yeah. Mayb-"

The women quieted when the doorbell rang. Bulma got up to open the door for the poor soul that had to carry so many pizzas into the house. His car was full of them, packed to the brim. She was surprised they all didn't fall out of his car when he got out. The young man seemed surprised that there was no loud noises traveling throughout the giant home to reveal a large party going on. It was in fact very quiet at Capsule Corporation.

After the stunned pizza man left, Bulma went to call the guys into the house to eat. Immediately upon her announcement, two blurs whizzed past her. Vegeta walked into the house at a calmer pace, though it too seemed rushed.

Sighing, Bulma turned back to follow the saiyan prince inside. Dinner was certainly going to be interesting tonight.
