"Xena, it's time for breakfast." Bulma said knocking lightly on the door. "Come down to the kitchen when you are ready." She said before I heard footsteps leading away from my door.

I spent the night at Capsule Corp. after the deal Elder Kai forced me into because I refused to go home with Goku and his family. I asked Bulma if it would be ok for me to stay here until Elder Kai comes back for me instead of living with Goku which she agreed to, much to Vegeta's displeasure.

I got up and put my uniform on because I was all I had with me and headed downstairs to the kitchen. "There you are Xena...we need to fine you some new clothes after you eat. I'm not going to let you walk around in saiyan armor like Vegeta does." Bulma said turning around when I walked in before turning to Vegeta who was sitting at the table.

"I still don't get why Kakarott's daughter has to stay here." Vegeta said glaring at me out of the corner of his eye. I hadn't said a word to anyone since yesterday morning after asking Bulma to stay here and Vegeta didn't enjoy that fact.

"Feel free to just throw me out then, I would rather live out on the street and work my way up then be made to go live with that bastard." I said for the first time since yesterday morning.

At this comment Vegeta smirked and gave a quick laugh. "Maybe you aren't so bad after all girl...what's your name again?" He asked turning to look at me as I sat down.

"My name is Xena, it's nice to meet you Prince Vegeta." I said formally looking back at him bowing my head slightly.

"Xena don't boost his ego more than it already is, just call him Vegeta." Bulma said placing a couple plates down in front of us.

"Morning..." I heard a familiar voice say behind me followed by a big yawn.

"Morning Trunks." Bulma said as he walked over and sat next to me. I tense up and lean away from him.

"Oh hey...Xena right? Something wrong?" Trunks asked looking over at me when he notice me moving. Elder Kai told everyone about me and what went on at the time nest, Trunks wasn't home at the time so he doesn't know that another version of him and I didn't get along at all and it seems like Bulma didn't tell him.

"Nothing." I said looking back down and started eating.

"Oh that's right, after we buy you some new clothes we need to get you enrolled in school." Bulma said sitting down.

I was taking a sip of juice when she said that and ended up spitting it back out coughing. "I-I'm sorry?" I said through my coughs making everyone stare at me.

"Something wrong Xena?" Bulma asked confused.

"I never agreed to that! I said I would stay here until Elder Kai comes back but I never agreed I would go to school." I said standing up.

"I'm sorry Xena but you are a fifteen year old girl, you have to go into high school. I don't know how it was at the time nest or your time line but here teens your age go to school. You are going to get enrolled into Orange Star High School, the same school Trunks and Goten goes to." Bulma said calmly looking up at me.

"It's not as bad as you think Xena, if anything goes wrong me and Goten will be there...though I doubt you would need our help." Trunks said looking up at me as well. "Just try not to start any fights alright? don't know if you are aware of how high school works but that's not allowed, being as strong as you are you would probably end up killing someone." He said as he continued eating. "I'm surprised you haven't snapped at me, I assumed you would have by now...mother filled me in on the details of what happened when I got home yesterday." He said explaining the last part when he saw the look on my face.

"Why would you assume I would...never mind." I said when I realized why he said that thinking back to my reaction to seeing Goku. I sit back down and we continue eating with little talking. When we finished eating we heard the door open as I helped Bulma do dishes.

"Morning Bulma, morning Xena!" I heard a familiar cheery voice say and I sharply inhale.

"Oh morning Goku, morning everyone." Bulma said turning around to greet Goku and his family.

"Bulma you wanted to go shopping when we finished right? Let's go." I said not wanting to be in the same room as Goku. I turn around and walk out the kitchen passing right by Goku without looking even acknowledging his presence.

I feel a heavy hand land on the shoulder pad of my armor making me stop walking. "Xena..." I hear Goku say from above me before I hear a sigh and the weight is removed from my shoulder and I continue walking.

I go and sit in the living room waiting for Bulma when the black haired woman that walked in with Goku sat down next to me. "You are Goku's wife...Chi-chi right?" I asked looking at her out of the corner of my eye.

"Yes I am, Xena do you mind if I join you and Bulma shopping? Could spend some girl time out, we can bring Videl too if she isn't too busy with little Pan." Chi-chi asked smiling at me.

"Um...I guess? Why do you seem so interested in getting to know me? I have no relation to you at all so you have no reason to bother yourself with me." I said looking back at the ground.

"You are Goku's daughter, may not be mine but you are still his family so...might as well get to know you. You should come by the house sometime and get to know your family." Chi-chi said as we heard footsteps and looked up.

"Ok ready to go?" Bulma asked walking into the room.

"Yeah...and I don't see that happening Chi-chi. I don't ever plan on going to his house, so sorry." I said to her before standing up and walking over to Bulma.

"Oh Bulma, what do you say to me and Videl tagging along?" Chi-chi asked standing up quickly followed by a muffled groan from me.

"That works, you guys can help me pick some outfits out for Xena. Go get Videl and meet us outside. Come on Xena." Bulma said before walking towards the front door. "Xena something wrong?" She asked looking at me.

"Nothing..." I said with a sigh.

"Is it because Chi-chi and Videl are coming with us? They are your family now so might as well get to know them." Bulma said as we waked out of the front door.

"It won't matter anyway, I'm going back once Elder Kai comes to get me...and I have no relation to Chi-chi. Videl, Gohan and Goten I can kind of understand you trying to get me to get along with but I have no reason to associate with her." I said looking at the ground.

"That's not true, she's your step-mother in a way." Bulma said.

"No, she's not...I don't belong in this peaceful time line anyway." I said before walking ahead of her.
