Quote of the Week: -from dbz Movie 8 "Fierce fight!! Violent fight!! Super-exciting fight!!"

Chi-Chi: That's what you should say, understand?

Goku: Chi-Chi, (narrows his eyes) Is this an interview or a lying contest?

/dl

Chuey's Corner:

Vegeta: Heh, Onna is a LIAR. (big evil grin)

Goku: (sing-song) Liar-liar-pants-on-fire!

Chuquita: Ah, I just got that movie re-downloaded. (grins) I am happy. WELCOME to another Corner and another story everybody.

We actually have a very interesting topic for our Corner this time; actually, a several different topics, but that's besides

the point. As some people may have known, Funi and FOX were planning on creating a dbz "live-action movie".

Vegeta: (pales instantly) Oh God....

Chuquita: Well, turns out instead of 1, they're making 4. One for each saga/villain. Personally I am both interested and

in deep fear that I'll have a heart-attack once I see what a "live-action" Veggie and Goku look like.

Goku: Not to mention Ji-chan! He'd be in this too! (sniffle) Poor Ji-chan.

Vegeta: (snorts) Yes, but Vejitto doesn't have to worry about this embarassing situation until the FOURTH movie.

Chuquita: If they get that far. (sweatdrops)

Vegeta: (shudders)

Chuquita: Ironically I just saw the live-action Veggie counterpart ad in my new "Nintendo Power" that had a live-action ssj

Goku in a previous ad.........*looks at ad*.......(pales) dear God help us all.

Goku: (frowns at picture) That guy doesn't look like my lil-lil Vedge'ums...

Vegeta: (twitches at it) I hope they do a better job in this "movie" of theirs. LOOK AT THE HAIR! IT'S ALL WRONG! (signals to

his own hair) The peak looks too small and there's not enough spikes and WHO'S IDEA WAS IT TO GIVE THE BAKA HUMAN _MASCARA_!!

Chuquita: (sweatdrops) You know what mascara is?

Vegeta: (flushes) (snaps at her) SHUDDUP!

Chuquita: Heh-heh, (grins at Veggie, then looks back at picture) I have to say I give the guy credit for trying--

Vegeta: --badly.

Chuquita: (sweatdrops)

Vegeta: (still-ranting) AND SINCE WHEN DO I WEAR A RED SWEATSHIRT!! I'M THE _BLUE_ CHARACTER!!! [points to his navyblue

training uniform) Bakayaros....(grumbles off into saiyago)

Goku: Goggie sure is lucky he doesn't have to have this happen to him.

Chuquita: Yah. (turns to him) Funi & FOX say they're supposed to have the first movie ready by 2005. It was originally

supposed to be next summer. O-well.

Vegeta: (still grumbling in saiyago)

Chuquita: I'd actually like to see a brand-new plotline instead of them mimicking a saga. (grins) But nothing can beat the

Goggie movie and some of the stuff in movie 8.

Goku: (reminices on the Goggie movie) Veggie made such funny faces through that whole movie...

Chuquita: They should make another tv-special, but have it on the 28 minutes they skipped over where Gogeta was fused

correctly.

Goku: (grins) I know. (leans towards still-grumbling yet now deep-in-thought Veggie) Little Veggie didn't wanna touch his

finger to my finger cuz he was afraid he'd get coooooooooooties.

Vegeta: (face bright red; embarassed) I DID NOT!!! (folds his arms) And they're called Kaka-germs. Not "cooties". HUMANS have

cooties. YOU (pokes him in the chest) have some strange peasant disease that feeds on the mind until it has been dumbed down

to a soft gooey mush-ball for you to control!!!!

Chuquita: You've been thinking this one up for a while.

Vegeta: You can tell?

Chuquita: ...

Goku: (grins) Veggie luvs me but is a-fraid of too much 'touchy-feely' cuz he might accident-tally blurt out all that mushy

stuff hidden deep inside his little Veggie self. [wiggling Veggie's tail between his fingers]

Veggie's tail: (bursts into bright red color w/all hairs poofing out on their ends) (frozen in place)

Goku: Aww, isn't Veggie's tail nice?

Vegeta: (looks over his shoulder at his tail and yelps) CUT THAT OUT YOU BIG BAKA!!

Goku: Heeheehee.

Chuquita: Today's story is about Veggie's memories, particularly of Son-kun; and what happens when all of those moments

concerning him are cut out of Veggie's brain while keeping Veggie's personality intact.

Vegeta: (evil smirk) It's Onna's fault. SHE'S the villain this time. [overdramatically latches onto Son] I'm just a poor

little victim in her evil scheme to undermine my OWN evil schemes. *fake-sniffle*

Goku: (eyes water) Oh my poor little Veggie...[hugs Veggie tightly] There there, it will be alright...

Vegeta: *fake-sniff* Thank you Kakay.......(flatly) Now let go of me before I catch that gruesome kaka-disease of yours.

Goku: (pouts) Aww, [lets go] but little Veggie is so fun to hug.

Vegeta: (laughs nervously) Uh-heh-heh.....yeah.

Chuquita: (happily) Here we go!

/dl

Summary: Chi-Chi decides to 'test' out one of Bulma's new inventions and 'accidentally' erases every memory in Vegeta's

head about Goku. Has she finally found a way to free herself and Goku from the Ouji's curse or will Goku's NEW relationship

with the ouji be even worse than the last one? Has Chi-Chi just dug herself into a deeper hole? Will Veggie get his lil

chunk of memory back? Find out!

/dl

Vegeta: (snorts) Let's HOPE SO.

Chuquita: Hey, it's not as bad as when gt Goku bit a giant bloody bite-mark into your left arm.

Vegeta: (agrees) Yeah I'll say it's not------WHAT?!

*****************************************************************************************************************************

" Isn't it GREAT! " Bulma said happily as she held 'it' in the air.

" Yeah Bulma, it's really nice. " Goku blinked, " Err, what is it? "

" Haha! " she plunked it onto the table she had picked it off of, " INTRODUCING THE BRAIN-FREEZER 3000!! "

" "3000"? " Goku cocked his head curiously.

" Yeah, well, according to marketing or products apparently sell higher when we had a large, fancy number at the end

to them. " Bulma rattled off.

" So, what does it do? " Chi-Chi said, inspecting the helmet-like object attached to a fairly tall machine by dozens

of wires.

" Well, say you had a bad memory of something really embarassing that happened to you this morning, or yesterday, or

years ago even. This little device completely erases that memory from your head while keeping your personality intact! "

" Oooh pretty. " Goku poked it.

" Yeah, 'pretty'. " Chi-Chi muttered, " You better not tell the Ouji about this though. Last thing we need is for him

to find out about this brain-eraser, wipe all our memories clean and steal my Go-chan out into deep space! "

" I wouldn't mind spacing out with little Veggie. " Goku smiled, then paused, " Where IS little Veggie? "

Bulma sighed, " Who knows? I was going to bring him down here along with you two to show my latest invention to but

he disappeared this morning on me. Personally I think he's up in his room doing something. "

" Pfh, yeah, plotting evil. " Chi-Chi grumbled.

" I will go check on little Veggie for you Bulma! " Goku saluted her.

" Oh NO you don't! " Chi-Chi marched up to him just as Goku teleported out of the lab and out infront of the door to

Vegeta's room. The large saiyajin giggled in anticipation.

" Umm, I'll go, uh, help you Goku! " Bulma shouted nervously as she watched Chi-Chi foam angrily at the mouth. Her

snarl calmed down to a growl as she glanced over at the brain-freezer 3000. Chi-Chi's expression suddenly went blank as an

idea entered her mind, " ...perfect. " a rare satisfied smile curled onto her face.

/dl

" Oh sweet lil-lil Vedge'ums who I love more than anybuddy else! Open up. " Goku said cheerfully as he knocked on the

door.

" ... "

" *a-hem*. " Goku coughed a bit, " Mr. Oujisama, you have a package from the H.U.G. incorperated!"

The ouji peeked out curiously only to have Goku glomp onto him. Vegeta yelped.

" Happy delivery! " the larger saiyajin chirped, hugging on tightly.

" Kaka...rrotto.....what an interesting...sur..prise.... " Vegeta squeaked out.

Goku pulled back, " Little Veggie wait'll you see the invention Bulma wants you to see it's so a-mazing! " Goku threw

his arms in the air and waved them around a bit.

Vegeta rolled his eyes, " She says that about EVERY invention. " he went to go take something off his bed and turned

to face Goku with it, " Hey Kakay! Look what just came back from the dry-cleaners! " Vegeta grinned evilly. Goku shrieked to

see the ouji was holding a hanger with the servant-maid uniform he had made for the larger saiyajin long ago.

" AHHHH!!! I THOUGHT YOU BURNED THAT!!! " Goku backed up, shocked and frightened while his shaking finger pointing at

the outfit.

" No, why would I do that? " Vegeta blinked, surprised, then grinned evilly again, " Heh-heh! I haven't seen this

thing since that time you got amnesia! "

" Umm, Veggie, speaking of memory, " Goku tried to calm down, easing out of the subject.

" At least try on the little hat for me, Kaka-chan. " Vegeta said sweetly.

" Oh Veggie I can't. " the larger saiyajin shook his head no.

" Why not? No one will see you. " Vegeta coaxed him.

" I don't wanna wear it! It BURNS! " the larger saiyajin shuddered.

Vegeta rolled his eyes, " Tfh. That's all in your mind, Kakarrotto! "

" ...maybe... " Goku said uneasily, glancing around the room, " But I still don't like it! I don't wanna be Veggie's

servant-maid and he knows I'd rather be the oujo. "

" Well you're not GOING to be the "oujo". " Vegeta said with a twinge of annoyance, then gave the the larger saiyajin

his best fake-big-sparkily-eyes, " Pwease try the little hat on for little me, Kakay-chan. " the ouji said in a babish voice.

" Awwwwwwwwwwww~~~.... " Goku awed at the smaller saiyajin, " Veggie's voice sounds so cute that way! " he bent down

to hug Vegeta, " Come 'ere little Veggie! "

" *plop*. " Vegeta cheerfully plopped the little servant-maid hat on Goku's head. The large saiyajin froze in place;

bent down with his arms still reaching out. Goku blinked after the first couple seconds, then looked up at the hat, " Well? "

" That's strange, I don't feel any dominating evil aura around it like before... " Goku thought outloud.

" Maybe it's because I had it washed and dried for you. "

" Haha, yeah. " Goku grinned, turning to the nearby mirror, " Maybe--AHHH!! " he shrieked to see Vegeta's reflection

next to him. The ouji had on the most evil sneaky grin Goku had seen since the smaller saiyajin had gotten possessed by

Babadi. Goku whipped his head around only to see Vegeta now staring at him with a blank look on his face.

" ... "

" ... "

Goku turned back to the mirror to see Vegeta now grinning evilly at him again, then back at the actual ouji who was

still staring blankly.

" ... "

" ... "

" This is like some creepy episode of the twilight zone...only I'M the victim! " Goku paled.

" Goku! Vegeta there you are! " Bulma said in a good mood, " I want you to come downstairs and see my new invention

that I've spent the past month working VERY HARD on. "

" Why. " the ouji cocked an eyebrow.

" BECAUSE I'll probably win an award for it and I want your feedback first! " Bulma said, slightly frustrated.

" You win an award for EVERY one of your baka inventions, Bulma. " Vegeta groaned, then motioned to the lab coat she

had on over her clothes. Bulma opened the lab coat to reveal she had dozens of award and #1 ribbons tagged throughout the

inside of the coat.

" Oh. You mean these. " she said as if it were nothing.

Vegeta sweatdropped.

" Well those were for little inventions, THIS, THIS is something truely ingenious! " Bulma clasped her hands together

, " It's called the Brain-Freeze 3000 and it's a machine that can selectively erase bad memories from your mind while

retaining your personality! It's sort of like, selective amnesia. " she explained.

" .....hehhhh.. " the little wheels in Vegeta's brain started to turn. Bulma sweatdropped at the sight of it.

" Whatever you're planning to do you can forget about it. " she said.

Vegeta leaned over and glanced up at Goku, " Kakay can you show me Bulma's brain-freezer for me? " he asked in a

sugary tone. Bulma gagged.

" Of COURSE I'll show it to you little Veggie! " Goku said happily, picking Vegeta up, " Boy is Veggie in a sunny

mood today! "

" Vegeta, DON'T. " Bulma warned as Goku left the room carrying the ouji over his shoulder.

" Don't what? " Vegeta asked innocently. Bulma stared at him skeptically. The saiyajin let out another smirk.

" Don't go erasing portions of OTHER PEOPLES', " she motioned to Goku, " memories, oh-kay? "

Vegeta laughed boastfully as he left the room with Goku, " Now WHY would I EVER do something like THAT? "

/dl

" Because I'm the saiyajin no ouji, that's why. Heh-heh! " Vegeta rubbed his hands together menacingly as he and

Goku walked down the stairs to the lab.

" You say somethin little Veggie? " Goku glanced down at him.

" No Kakarrotto, your small kaka-brain must be hearing the wind and interpreting it as the sound of my rich-quality

voice. " Vegeta said proudly.

" Hahaha! Silly Veggie! My brain isn't small. " Goku grinned at the thought.

Vegeta sweatdropped, then tip-toed past him, " Which way is it again Kakarrotto? " he asked quickly.

" Oh, to your right. " Goku said, now several steps behind him. Vegeta dashed down the remaining stairs and made a

sharp right only to bump into something and fall back over.

" OOF! "

" OWW! "

Vegeta sat up to see Chi-Chi also fallen back on her butt, glaring at him.

" Onna. "

" Ouji. "

" Onna, how very suspicous it is for you to be sneaking around other people's laboratories. You could get sent to

prison and forced to do hard labor for such things. " Vegeta snickered.

" You shuddup! You have no room to talk you evil little Ouji! If it were up to me YOU'D BE IN THE ELECTRIC CHAIR BY

NOW!! " Chi-Chi pointed at him angrily.

" Tsk tsk, Kakay would get so upset if he knew you were going to let his "little Veggie" get MURDERED. " Vegeta said

cooley.

" NO ONE IS MURDERING VEGGIE!!! " Goku exclaimed in a panic, jumping down the remainder of the stairs and teleporting

to where Chi-Chi and Vegeta were. He blinked in surprise, " Chi-chan what're you still doing down here? "

" Yes "Chi-chan", why don't you tell the little Kaka-muffin what you're still doing down here? " Vegeta said

mockingly.

" I was, I was looking for a light-switch. " Chi-Chi said while still sending angry death-glares at Vegeta.

" OH! Is that all! " Goku smiled, then clapped his hands together, " Clap on!! *clap-clap* Clap off!! *clap-clap*

Clap on clap off!! *clap-clap* *clap-clap*. "

Chi-Chi and Vegeta sweatdropped as the lights turned on and off with each clap of Goku's hands.

" Heehee, Bulma had a "THE CLAPPER©" installed in the lab last week, convenient,huh? "

" Yes...very convenient... " Chi-Chi said, gritting her teeth as she got up. She then relaxed into a smile and sent

a short warning glare at Vegeta, " Say Go-chan, would you mind going upstairs and getting my keys for me, I left something in

the car and I just can't get in there to get it without them. " Chi-Chi said warmly.

" Is it a yummy snack? " Goku's eyes widened with glee.

" Maybe it is. " she played along.

" YAY! " Goku cheered, then bounced up the chairs, " Snacks for me! Snacks for me! Snacks for me and Veh-gee!! " he

sang as he skipped out of sight.

" Full-grown saiyajins shouldn't skip. I don't care if it's Kakarrotto or not, it's just plain wrong. " Vegeta

muttered to himself.

" WHO SAID THE OUJI COULD GET ANY!! " Chi-Chi added, yelling up at Goku and missing Vegeta's comment. She then turned

to the ouji, " So. "

" So? " Vegeta smirked.

" Bulma tell you about her new invention? "

" Oh, yes. The brain-thingy. It's very interesting. " Vegeta chuckled.

" Hai. Very VERY interesting.. " Chi-Chi chuckled back. The two suddenly paused.

" Wait, are you plotting what I'm plotting? " Chi-Chi said, paling.

" I was going to erase all of you bakas out of Kakarrotto's mind with the exception of me. " Vegeta smirked, " You? "

" *Whew*! Oh thank GOD! Hahaha! " Chi-Chi laughed with relief, " For a seocnd there I thought we had both gotten the

same evil-plot. Haha, that would've been scary! "

" I tend to rub off on those around me, even when they're people I don't particularly like. " Vegeta admitted.

" Yeah, I noticed. " Chi-Chi said dryly, walking around the corner and sitting down, annoyed.

" Sometimes even more so on those I DO enjoy, like Kakay, for example. " Vegeta sat down next to her and grinned

widely.

" HA! You're not rubbing off a BIT on my Go-chan! " she narrowed her eyes.

" Oh, on the contrary. I'm the one Kakay comes running to whenever YOU blow your top at him. Why, I bet if me; and

Kakay's little "fusion-babies" came back from their security-guard duty to live with me here, Kakay would easily come to live

with his saiyajin family instead of your human one in a snap! " Vegeta snapped his own fingers, then leaned over to her side,

" And do you know why? "

Chi-Chi growled.

" Cuz Kakay luvs me more than he luvs you. " the ouji teased her.

" ARRG!! " Chi-Chi roared, leaping to her feet and smacking Vegeta across the back of the head. The ouji yelped in

pain. Chi-Chi smirked and smacked the top of his chair, causing shackles to leap out of the arms and legs and neck of the

chair and strap tightly around Vegeta's own arms, legs, and neck. The ouji froze is shock.

" HA! " Chi-Chi pointed at the slightly confused Vegeta, " I'VE GOT YOU NOW OUJI! I _KNEW_ you'd sit next to me once

I sat down and that's why I walked over here! HAHAHA! " she pressed down on Vegeta's head, which the ouji finally recognized

now had a helmet-like device ontop of it since he got smacked there.

" You weren't hitting me...you were putting this contraption on my head!!! " Vegeta said slowly, then snapped at the

end.

" Well, aren't you smart today, Ouji! You see, when I was down here earlier with Bulma and my Go-chan it hit me. "

she began, pacing around him and the chair in a circle, " All this time we've been trying to yank Go-chan in one way or the

other, and I'm sure while that works just fine for you and your fake 'look-how-little-and-thus-freakishly-cute-I-am' tricks,

which to Go-chan is like sticking his already warm heart in a microwave and then heating it on super-defrost, MY method of

trying to show Go-chan how TWISTED and EVIL you truely are has been getting harder the more time he spends with you. So I

thought to myself, why mess with Goku's feelings in this creepy little relationship he has with the Ouji when I can go

straight to the source and mess with YOUR feelings instead; namely your brain. "

Vegeta made a small gulp, watching her intently.

" The machine you're hooked up to is the one you were looking for to erase those chunks of Go-chan's mind. " Chi-Chi

smirked, " Well Ouji, you've found it, but Goku isn't the one going to be taking it out for a test spin. You are. "

Vegeta's eyes widened until his pupils took of half his head. He shook it off, " Once Kakarrotto finds out what

you're doing he'll hate you forever and NEVER want to come back to you! " the saiyajin grinned wickedly, " I won't even have

to do anything to win since you're practically handing me the trophy right now. "

" I'll claim it was an accident. " Chi-Chi shrugged, " Heck you ARE an accident you evil little monster! " she

snarled at him.

" Monster am I? So says the psycho-lady who straps me into the machine and threatens me with my life. " Vegeta said

slickly.

" Ouji. " Chi-Chi bent down to his seated height, " I figure since you won't remember any of this after you're

through, I might as well reveal it to you now as bluntly as possible. " a dark, evil grin engulfed her face, " I am going to

erase every memory of Goku in your mind and when I'm done you won't give a darn about 'Kakarrotto' more than anybody else and

not even remember what that sick little saiyajin name you ADORE calling him is to begin with. "

" ...uh...........h.......... " Vegeta sat there, speechless.

" I've been reading the manual while I was down here so I know the basics of how to work this thing. So go ahead,

scream that word at the top of your lungs, Goku's too far away right now to hear you and I'm sure you'd like to be able to

say that name one more time before I blow every bit of 'Kakarrotto' out of your evil little brain. " she said casually, then

chuckled a bit happily, " Wow, who knew playing the villain for a change could make you feel so EMPOWERED! "

" Baka Onna. " Vegeta spat.

Chi-Chi reached towards the on switch to the machine, " What was that! " she demanded. The ouji cursed silently in

saiyago, then took a deep breath an screamed at the top of his lungs.

" KAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTOOOOOOOOOOOO

OOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! "

/dl

Goku's head snapped to attention. The saiyajin had found the keys and was currently in the car on his 3rd

search-through for the "snack" Chi-Chi had told him about. He grabbed at his left ear, which suddenly began to throb in a

frightened, terrified, enraged pain, " Little Veggie's in trouble! " Goku squeaked out in his own terror. He scrambled out of

the car and made a mad dash inside. Goku tugged hard on his left earlobe, " DON'T WORRY LITTLE VEGGIE I'M COMING TO SAVE YOU

I PROMISE!! " he wailed as the pain grew more intense.

/dl

" Hear that Onna, Kakay's comin to save me! " Vegeta grinned, " Bwahaha! You're going to look even more like the bad

guy to him now then ever before! "

" Say goodbye, Ouji. " Chi-Chi said, pushing in on a big red button.

Vegeta mocked her, " Goodbye, Kakay-chaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA---uhh. " Vegeta's expression went blank and his

head leaned off to the side.

Chi-Chi stared at the limp little figure in the chair, then cautiously walked over to Vegeta, " Ouji? "

" ... "

" ... "

" *SLAP!* I HATE YOU YOU EVIL LITTLE OUJI!! " Chi-Chi slapped Vegeta hard across the face, only to have him not

respond at all, " HAHAHA! BOY have I wanted to do THAT for a while. " she grinned cheesily, " Well, back to finishing the job

. " she cracked her knuckles, then typed in the word-search on the little monitor stationed on the back of the chair

hooked to the helmet. She put her fingers on the keys and typed in the word "Kakarrotto".

" 1 billion 8 million 26 thousand and 4 entries found. " the computer said in a monotone.

Chi-Chi fell over, " ONE BILLION!!!! " she got up, then leaned over the side of the chair, " Is that ALL you think

about all day!!! Don't you have any hobbies OTHER than obsessing over my Go-chan! " she said, " Heh, don't worry then Ouji,

once you're off you little "kaka"-kick, you'll have plenty of time to do NORMAL things with yourself. " Chi-Chi scanned the

monitor, " Ah, here we go. Erase all memories containing the word "Kakarrotto"! " she pressed in the button and a bright

light blue surge of energy came from the helmet and transfered to the machine. Vegeta shot at attention and started screaming

blindly while the machine continued erasing the information from his head. Chi-Chi backed up in slight fear as she watched

the small saiyajin's body twitch in agony and the screams getting louder and more pained. Tears streamed down Vegeta's cheeks

while the machine slowed down, finishing. He slumped back into the blank, dummy state he was in before she hit the button.

Chi-Chi looked visibly horrorified.

" Well.....that was creepy. " she managed to get her voice back. Chi-Chi stood back up, shakily and even forgetting

exactly when she fell over. She pressed a blue button on the machine, " Now Ouji, I want you to listen to me and obey. " she

ordered, gaining some of her courage back. Chi-Chi slapped Vegeta across the face again, " Ouji. You will refer to me from

now on as Chi-Chi. I'm sick and tired of you not calling me by my name! We're going to be mutual friends like we were back

before you stole my spaceship and launched yourself into space. Is that alright with you? "

Vegeta nodded his head slightly.

" Good. Now this is the really important part, Ouji. I have a husband and his name is Son Goku. He is of absolutely

no importance to you. He's just another one of the 'earth-bakas' you have to deal with. Goku is nothing special to you, OK? "

Chi-Chi said, placing emphisis on it.

" ... "

" Good! " she pressed the button that unhooked Vegeta. The ouji collapsed to the floor unconsious.

" VEH-GEEEEE!!! VEGGIE ARE YOU DOWN HERE!! " Goku shouted in an over-worried tone of voice from the top of the stairs

. Chi-Chi froze and grabbed Vegeta so she could drag him away from the machine.

" Oh GOD this is so creepy. He feels all slimy and singed from behind hooked up to that thing. ECH! " Chi-Chi said,

grossed out as she dropped Vegeta near the side of the stairs where he had been standing when Goku had left the room earlier.

" VEH-HEH-HEH-HEH-GEEEEE!!! " Goku lept down from the top of the stairs and landed on the floor of the lab, then

gasped in fright to see the little ouji lying on the ground, unconsious, " Veggie? " he squeaked out, bending down to

Vegeta's height, " Veggie's unconsious! " Goku looked up at Chi-Chi and cried, " VEGGIE'S UNCONSIOUS!!! "

" Umm, yes, heh-heh. He is. " Chi-Chi smiled nervously.

" What happened to lil-lil Veggie to make him unconsious, Chi-chan? " Goku asked with big innocent eyes.

" Uhhh... " Chi-Chi trailed off, " Well, you see Goku, me and the Ouji were arguing here and then we started getting

into a 'who-can-yell-the-loudest' sort of contest. And, well, the Ouji won but he used up so much oxygen he fainted from the

exhaust of it all. " she explained, trying to sound as cheerful as she could.

" Oh. " Goku replied, " That's kinda weird. Veggie's scream sounded like he was in PAIN. " Goku's eyes temporarily

widened on the last word. Chi-Chi sweatdropped.

" Well, he was...from, err, screaming so loudly. It hurt him to scream so loud. " she said.

" Oh Veggie.. " Goku sniffled, then felt Vegeta's pulse and smiled, " Veggie's oh-kay! " he brightened up, then

observed the ouji a little more. Goku sat down on his knees and bent towards Vegeta.

" AHHHH!!! " Chi-Chi shrieked.

" What? " Goku looked up at her inquisitively.

" "What?" _WHAT_ THE HECK DO YOU THINK YOU'RE _DOING_, GOKU!! " she screamed at him.

" I'm going to give little Veggie CPR to revive him. " Goku said, blinking.

" NO YOU'RE NOT! HE'LL REVIVE HIMSELF! I'M _NOT_ GOING TO STAND HERE AND LET YOU PRESS YOUR LIPS TO THE OUJI'S LIKE

THAT!!!! " Chi-Chi stomped on the ground.

" Oh, you're right. " Goku frowned, then picked Vegeta up and carried him up the stairs.

" Of course I'm right! " Chi-Chi grinned victoriously, " H--Hey Goku where're you going! Wait up! "

Goku placed Vegeta on the living room couch on his back and covered the ouji from the stomach-down with a fleece

blanket, " There. " he smiled warmly, " You rest here lil Vedge'ums and I'll be right back. " Goku then zipped off into the

kitchen insearch of something.

" What was THAT? " Mirai Trunks said, coming out of his room upstairs and looking confused.

" What was what? " Chi-Chi looked up, equally confused.

" Don't tell you didn't see it? All the electricity in Capsule Corp just shut off for 10 or 15 seconds just now. " he

said, leaning slightly over the staircase, " That only happens when one of mom's machine's sucks up too much power. "

" Did it, really. " Chi-Chi laughed cheesily, " Don't worry about it Mirai, it was probably just your mom or grandpa

working on one of the experiments down in the lab. "

" But, mom's in the bathroom. " Mirai pointed across the hall from him, " And grandpa went to the supermarket to buy

some more groceries. "

" ... "

" ... "

" Umm, short-circuit? " Chi-Chi shrugged.

" I bet Toussan was down there building a special gift for his Kakarroujo! " Bura grinned, walking by Mirai and down

the stairs then gasped to see Vegeta lying unconsious on the couch, " TOUSSAN-CHAN!!! " she clutched the rung of the stairs,

worried.

" Oh he's fine, don't worry. " Chi-Chi brushed it off and sat down in a chair at the other side of the room.

Goku returned from the kitchen, whistling cheerfully. He plopped himself on the empty spot at the end of the couch he

had layed Vegeta on and opened a small bottle in his hand, " Gonna help Veggie so he can breathe a-gain! " the large saiyajin

said in a sing-song voice.

" Go-chan what are you doing? " Chi-Chi glanced over at him.

" You were right, I couldn't just give little Veggie CPR like that. " Goku smiled, " I need to use some chapstick

first so I can get as much air into his lil Veggie-lungs as possible! " he chirped, then put some chapstick on and once again

bent down towards the smaller saiyajin.

" WHOO-HOO! YOU _GO_ KAKARROUJO!! " Bura cheered him on.

" ...! " Goku froze in place, his face a bright pink color, " Uhh.... " he looked down at the unconsious little ouji

near him, " I--- "

" --GOKU YOU GET OFF OF THAT EVIL LITTLE OUJI RIGHT NOW!!! " Chi-Chi yelled at him. Goku whinced, " AND DON'T YOU

_DARE_ EVEN _THINK_ ABOUT DOING WHAT YOU WERE ABOUT TO DO! NOW GET OFF HIM! "

The large saiyajin, still an embarassed glowing bright pink color, instead of breathing into Vegeta started pushing

his hands down onto the ouji's chest repeatedly as if trying to get the lungs to start moving again. It started to work and

after doing it about five times Vegeta was breathing again; still unconsious, but breathing. Goku wiped the nervous sweat

from his brow, his face color now back to normal.

" Thank goodness. " the large saiyajin breathe, then smiled cheerfully at Vegeta, " I don't know what I'd ever do

without my little Veggie around. "

" Aww, that was sweet too, Kakarroujo. " Bura commented. Goku smiled back at the little girl, then patted Vegeta's

stomach once and got off the couch.

" Heehee, thank you Bura. " Goku said, still a little embarassed. He looked over his shoulder at Vegeta, " I know one

little Veggie who's gonna get a yummy bowl of strawberry ice cream with whipped cream all over it when he wakes up! " the

large saiyajin said sweetly.

" Umm, Son-san? You got a little something on your head. " Mirai said, pointing to his own. Goku looked up to see he

was still wearing the small servant-maid hat on.

" Oh! " Goku looked up to see the small hat, then poked it and smiled, " Aw that's oh-kay Mirai, I kinda like the it.

Infact I'm getting sort of attached to the tiny lil floofy hat! "

" You're kidding...? " Mirai sweatdropped.

" Nope! " Goku chirped, " C--course that doesn't mean I'm going to wear that creepy servant-maid uniform Veggie made

for me. " he shuddreed, then went back to normal again, " But the hat is nice. "

" I say take if off your head before you give the Ouji the wrong idea. " Chi-Chi said, annoyed.

" Aww, but Veggie's asleep still, Chi-chan. He can't see us. ~*right, Veh-gee*~? " the large saiyajin said sweetly to

the unconsious one. Goku clasped his hands together, " Veggiesocute when he's asleep, Chi-chan. "

" Ohhhhhh.... " the ouji groaned, twitching slightly. The larger saiyajin gasped happily and teleported back to the

couch.

" Veggie's waking up! " Goku lifted Vegeta's head up slightly, " Veggie, Veggie can you hear me? Are you oh-kay? "

he asked, concerned.

" Uhhh.... " Vegeta opened his eyes slightly to the blurry orange blob infront of him, " ...my head hurts...really

really..bad... " he said weakly, then closed them again.

" Aw, poor *Veggie*! " Goku sniffled, hugging the little ouji against him, " Well don't you worry little Veggie, I

will get you some asprin and that will make your brain-pain go away. " the large saiyajin patted Vegeta on the back. The

ouji took a whiff of where he was.

" *sniff*sniff*, fish? " Vegeta opened his eyes again, still in the hug.

" Haha, yeah. I went fishing this morning little Veggie. " Goku laughed, " Boy you have a smart lil nose! "

Vegeta looked up at him with the most bewildered expression on his face Goku had ever seen, " Who's "Veh-gee"? And

who the heck are you!? "

Everyone else in the room, sans Chi-Chi, froze in shock. Goku's eyes widened into two gigantic frightened sparkily

black blobs.

" Wha--what? " Goku squeaked out, tightening his told desperately on the smaller saiyajin he was holding against him.

" I said, who the heck ARE you, baka? And why do you keep calling me "Veggie"! " he exclaimed, annoyed and trying to

push his way out.

" Ehhh....ehhhhhhh... " the larger saiyajin's now over-protective grasp on Vegeta instantly shattered. Goku got up

and plopped the ouji on the couch, then waddled out through the front door in a zombie-like walk. He closed the door quietly.

The others stared blankly at the door.

" ... "

" ... "

" AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "

an blood-curtling, ear-piercing, heart-broken scream wailed from outside. Vegeta sweatdropped and turned to the others.

" Bura, who was that guy? " Vegeta groaned.

" ... " Bura's own eyes widened in a similar fashion, " AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! " she

screamed, running back up the stairs and locking herself in her room.

" Ugh, why is everybody screaming all of a sudden? " Bulma, who had finally emerged from the bathroom after her

semi-long ordeal with the tacos from last night's dinner, said as she walked down the stairs past Mirai and to the rim of

the step.

" It--it MUST be a trick. " Mirai murmured.

" WHAT! What must be a trick? " Bulma demanded.

" Toussan just asked who Goku was. " Mirai paled, " Son-kun ran out of the room bawling like a wild-person, and Bura

did the same just now.

Bulma twitched and turned to the ouji, " Vegeta will you cut that out! You know what I said about getting Goku too

frightened. Now I want you to go out there and apologize to him before he stops being frightened and starts getting mad! "

" Go-ku? " Vegeta prounounced it like he had just done so for the first time; well, second, but it didn't matter,

" Go-ku. So that guy out there is-- "

" --Goku! My husband and a mere acquaintance to you, Ouji. " Chi-Chi said cheerfully.

" Oh, so that's your husband! " the ouji said, enlightened. He then cocked an eyebrow suspicously, " Why was he

"hugging" onto me for dear life? "

" Because you were unconsious and we were all worried, uh, for you. Hahahah! " Chi-Chi laughed nervously, " He--he

gets very emotional sometimes. "

" Huh. " Vegeta said, then started to pat his stomach and the other body parts that had just been hugged, " That's

strange, that felt like he's done that before....strange. " he narrowed his eyes at the door the larger saiyajin had just

run screaming out of. The ouji walked towards the door only to have Chi-Chi stop him.

" You don't have to worry about him! My Go-chan is none of your business! " Chi-Chi smiled, then clasped her hands

together, " Infact you don't have any sort of feelings towards him one way or the other so why don't _I_ go comfort him

instead of _YOU_ and _YOU_ go do what you normally do with your day! " she said, then turned to go outside, " Oh Go-chaaan! "

" ... " the ouji stared off blankly, " Well, FINE. I'll go do that! " he shook his fist at the open door, annoyed

only to pause a second later and stare off into space again, " ......wait, what DO I normally do with my day?... "

" Vegeta, are you feeling alright? " Bulma said, cautiously approaching him.

" Something's very wrong here... " Vegeta folded his arms.

" Of COURSE something's "wrong" here! YOU JUST CALLED GOKU 'GOKU'!!! " Bulma exclaimed.

" So? That's what Chi-Chi said his name was. " the ouji signaled to the door.

Bulma sweatdropped, then slapped herself on the forehead, " Oh dear God. " she turned to him, " You know Vegeta, YOU

I would've suspected of using the brain-freezer to erase our minds, but CHI-CHI! I thought SHE was supposed to be the

slightly more responsible one! "

" Yes well I suppose you've proved yourself wrong. " Vegeta snickered at her, " Wait, what's a brain-freezer? "

" Nothing! " she replied quickly, " It's, it's better for you not to know right away because if you don't know who

Goku is then you're bound to not hold back anything when you get mad! " Bulma's face paled.

" I KNOW who "Goku" is, he's Chi-Chi's baka husband! " the annoyed saiyajin said.

" NO! No, his name is Kakarrotto. " Bulma put her hands on Vegeta's shoulders, " You remember "Kakarrotto", right? "

she smiled weakly.

" ! " something suddenly clicked inside the ouji's head. His eyes widened, " Ka-karrot-to? " he said slowly, only to

let out a sudden yelp as a large orange object crashed straight through the wall and tackled Vegeta to the ground.

" My wall... " Bulma said weakly, twitching.

" Yes, Veggie? " Goku squeaked out hopefully with his arms shaking from just bawling his eyes out while he stared

deadlocked on Vegeta's eyes.

" Uhhh.......you're scaring me. " the ouji said nervously with a blush-line over his nose.

" Hmm? " Goku blinked, " OH! " he jumped off of Vegeta and held out his hands, " Here little Veggie, lemmie help you

up. " the larger saiyajin said warmly.

The smaller saiyajin stared at him in a stubborn pout for a moment, then held out his hands only to be easily lifted

up onto his feet.

" There we go, all better now, right Veggie? " Goku laughed while he worriedly dusted the ouji off.

" What's wrong with you? " the ouji sweatdropped.

" Nothing little Veggie, I'm fine, really. " he smiled, holding onto the smaller saiyajin's hands tightly, " Now

Veggie, what's my name? " he said, his hands shaking nervously.

" Goku. " Vegeta said, cocking an eyebrow at the larger saiyajin, who obviously whinced in reply to the sound that

had just come out of the ouji's mouth.

" No Veggie that's wrong, Veh---oh Veggie... " Goku gulped.

" WHO'S "VEGGIE"?! " Vegeta exclaimed.

" YOU'RE VEGGIE!!! " Goku wailed, latching onto him, " MY little Veggie.... " his eyes watered, " And who am I? "

" You're......Kakay. "

" YAY!! " Goku cheered happily, hugging tighter, " Veggie remembered one of his cute lil Veggie-nicknames for me I'm

so HAPPY! "

" *SMACK*! "

" Oww! " Goku yelped after being slapped across the back of the head.

" Come on Goku, we're going home now. " Chi-Chi smiled at him.

" No way! I have to stay here and protect Veggie's damaged brain at all costs! " Goku gasped, now smushing the

currently glowing-red-faced ouji against his chest, " I luv little Veggie and I'd do anything for him just like he'd do

anything for me and what he needs me to do for him right now is to take care of him until he completely remembers who I am! "

" But, you're just Chi-Chi's husband, right? " Vegeta was now looking very confused.

" When did Veggie start calling Chi-chan by her real name? He hasn't done that in forever! " Goku gawked.

" I've ALWAYS called her "Chi-Chi", Goku. " Vegeta said, disturbed, " What ELSE would I call her? "

" Please don't say that... " Goku squeaked out.

" Don't say what? "

" Goku. "

" Why? "

" It sounds all wrong coming out of little Veggie's mouth. It's not supposed to be there! I'm special to Veggie and

Veggie always calls me by my saiyajin name and that's Kakarrotto so Veggie PLEASE call me Kakarrotto from now on because I

love the way lil Vedge'ums tries to pronounce that big long word and he does such a good job doing it! " the larger saiyajin

was on the verge of tears.

" Alright then, "Kakarrotto". " Vegeta humored him.

" Mmm. Better. " Goku said warmly, hugging onto the ouji slightly softer.

" GOKU, time to go home now! " Chi-Chi said cheerfully, " Ouji would you mind helping me get him into the car. "

Goku's eyes widened.

" If it'll get this touchy-feely weirdo off of and away from me I'll GLADLY do it. " Vegeta grunted, picking up Goku

from inside the hug and walking outside to the car.

" Veggie--Veggie no! Veggie you don't know what you're doing--you're not in your right mind! I don't even know if

you're in ANY mind! " Goku rambled on frightningly as Vegeta put him in the backseat and strapped him into the car.

" Ugh, listen 'Kakarrotto'. Why don't you go home and take a nice long nap, huh? " Vegeta smirked, humoring him,

" It'll do you some good and you can be far away from worrying about "Veggie", oh-kay? "

" But I don't WANT to be far away from Veggie! I LUV Veggie. " Goku pleaded, " Hey--hey wouldn't little Veggie rather

come with me back to my house and we can 'take a nice long nap' together? " the larger saiyajin said warmly.

" Uhh...... " Vegeta trailed off, his face bright red. He shook it off, " Urg, Kakarrotto what have I told you about

saying things that insinuate those kind of ideas into the min--just go home! " he interupted himself.

" Veggie remembered my name... " Goku said to himself in shock as Chi-Chi closed the door to the car, " Veggie

remembered something that happened before....he remembered it and was just about to re-teach the lesson to me right now.. "

Goku smiled, " Oh VEGGIE!! " he turned to grab the ouji only to smush his face into the window, " Oww. "

" Say goodbye to the Ouji, Goku! " Chi-Chi waved to Vegeta they drove off, " Goodbye Ouji, nice talking to you! "

" I LUV YOU MY SWEET LITTLE VEGGIE-CHAAAAAAN!! " Goku shouted, " DON'T FORGET ME PLEASE!!! " he sobbed as they drove

out of sight.

Vegeta turned to the others, " Well, I wonder what HIS problem is. " he folded his arms, confused.

" Oh boy... " Bulma paled, " Say Vegeta, I'm going to check something out with Mirai down in the lab. You wait for us

on the couch, oh-kay? " she ordered.

" Sure. " Vegeta shrugged and sat down. Bulma blinked in shock.

" Really?!! "

" Yeah, not like I'm planning to do anything else today. " the ouji shrugged, then lazily took the tv remote and

started to flip between channels.

Bulma gulped down in the direction of the flight of stairs leading down to the lab, " This is gonna take a while. "

/dl

" So wait, you think that Chi-Chi erased some memories from Toussan's mind?! " Mirai gawked as he and Bulma walked

down the stairs, " Wouldn't that sort of thing usually occur the other way around? " he said, confused.

" Well, I'm not one to talk behind people's backs like this, " Bulma put her labcoat back on as she reached the

bottom of the stairs, " But I think Chi-Chi's getting a bit desperate. "

" You're kidding, right? " Mirai chuckled.

" Eh, I guess she just thinks Vegeta's getting a little too close to Son-kun for comfort. " she explained, " I mean,

they are the last two of their ENTIRE SPECIES. There's nothing wrong with them being friends. " Bulma walked over to the

brain-freezer and shrieked, " SWEET CORNED BEEF!!! 1 BILLION 8 MILLION 26 THOUSAND AND 4 ENTRIES FOUND!? " her eyes bulged

out of her head at the little screen readout. Bulma's eyes glanced downward, " For the word.........Kakarrotto. " she

sweatdropped, " Oh good God. " Bulma groaned, smacking herself on the forehead, " Is that ALL you have on the brain, Vegeta!"

she shouted to the nonexistant ouji, " I bet he has more entires for 'Kakarrotto' then he does for all of his family members

combined! "

" This machine really erased THAT MUCH STUFF out of Toussan's brain? " Mirai looked it over, " Isn't that dangerous?"

" OF COURSE it's "dangerous! You're not supposed to use this machine to take THAT MUCH INFORMATION out of someone's

brain! You could give them permanent brain damage! Or a disorder of some type! Besides it wasn't made to hold that much

information, that's probably why Vegeta had one or two vague recollections of Son-kun. But almost two BILLION memories and

thoughts on him? This is insane. " Bulma murmured, then added, " HE'S insane. "

" At least we know what he likes to do in his spare time. " Mirai smirked dryly, " Kaasan is there anyway we could

fix his head, you know, get the memories back into it from the machine? "

Bulma sighed, " My brain-freezer wasn't meant to do that. Only to erase. "

" Then why did you show it to Goku and Chi-Chi in the first place!!? "

" I was proud of it. It was a good invention! I even tested it on myself! " Bulma said.

Mirai's eyes widened, " Really? What did you erase? "

" I don't remember. " she shrugged cheesily, Mirai fell over, " But that's how I knew it worked! "

" How long do you think it'll take you to get it to put them all back in Toussan's head? " Mirai asked.

" I'm not sure. " Bulma sighed, " But I think I should call Goku first to let him know what happened. The poor guy's

probably worried sick by now. Maybe it'll help ease the pain. "

/dl

" Ohhhhhhh... " Goku sniffled depressingly as he lay on his bed, " I want my Veggie back.... "

" Aw, don't so down-in-the-dumps, Go-chan! " Chi-Chi said in a happy mood, " Just because the Ouji stopped loving you

doesn't mean I will. I won't abandon you, sweetie. "

The larger saiyajin smiled, partially relieved, " Veggie says he'll luv me forever, Chi-chan. " Goku grinned

cheerfully.

" When did he say THAT? " Chi-Chi said flatly.

" Oh Veggie says it lots of times. He wants to make sure I don't forget, but I never do. " Goku chirped, " Veggie

wouldn't forget me on purpose though......HEY! " he said, an idea popping into his head. Chi-Chi froze, " That's it! "

" What's...it? "

" Veggie's playing a GAME with me! I bet he's tryin to test me to make sure that if he forgets that I won't. WOW

little Veggie you are so creative! " Goku clasped his hands together.

" Yah, he's 'creative' alright. " Chi-Chi said in disgust.

" Why I bet any minute now lil Veggie's gonna call me and say 'Haha, Kakarrotto I sure fooled you but you made me

happy cuz you didn't stop caring for me despite my suppose-ed memory loss!' and then Veggie'd give me a big warm veggiehug

and I'd hug Veggie back and we'd both be so happy and live happily ever after the end! " the large saiyajin excitedly

rattled off.

" Uh-huh. " Chi-Chi grumbled, annoyed.

" *RING*RING*! "

Goku gasped with joy, " VEGGIE!! " he lundged at the phone to his left and nearly fell off the bed in the process.

The saiyajin held the phone up to his ear, " Hiiiiiiiiiiiii, Veh-gee. " he said teasingly. Chi-Chi paled at the sight.

Goku frowned at the voice on the phone, " Oh. Hi Bulma. " he said sadly. Chi-Chi sighed, slightly relieved.

" Goku, I have something very important to tell you-- "

" --can-Veggie-tell-me? " he grinned, interupting her, then let out a little giggle, " Or is he still busy playing

*giggle* let's pretend we *giggle* forgot who Kakarrotto is? "

" Umm, playing, right. " Bulma laughed nervously as she watched Vegeta, who had the most bored look on his face she

had ever seen, continue to flip the channels on the tv while laying spread out all over the living room couch a few feet

away from her.

" I bet this is just to throw me off cuz he's planning something ~*really*special*~ for me, right Bulma? " Goku

grinned, " Is it a present? Or a trip somewhere? Or the biggest, yummiest chocolate-cake anyone's ever baked in the history

of chocolate-cake-baking? "

" Why am I even ON this stupid planet. " Vegeta grumbled to himself as he slightly moved his position around on the

couch; luckily far enough away so that he couldn't be heard on the other end of the phone, " THERE'S NOTHING TO DO HERE! "

he exclaimed, then stetched and let out yawn, preparing to take a nap.

" I CAN COME PLAY WITH YOU TO EASE YOUR BORDOM, LITTLE VEGGIE! " Goku shouted happily into the phone.

" Goku, about "little Veggie". " Bulma groaned, still slightly nervous about what his reaction would be.

" He's getting ready to take a lil Veggie-nap, isn't he? I can sense him feeling really sleepy through our portara

fusion link. " Goku said, pointing to his ear even though Bulma couldn't see him actually doing so.

" Yeah, he's--he's going to take a nap. "

" Well I think that's a great idea, I was thinking of taking one too. " Goku smiled, " I really tuckered Veggie out

playing with him early this morning! "

" That's nice--wait, when were you hear this mor-- "

" --I woke up at 4:00am cuz I couldn't sleep so I thought "why not go over to Veggie's and ask if he'd like to spar"

so we did and we spared until the sun came up and we watched the sunrise together. I don't think Veggie's ever seen that

before because he looked so in awe of it! It was so kawaii! Then I went back home and Veggie went back to sleep! " Goku

said happily, " Yup, it was a fun morning! "

" Oh dear God this is going to crush him. " Bulma muttered under her breath to herself, terrified.

" What's going to crush who? " Goku cocked his head.

" Umm, Son-kun. Vegeta he---you know that machine I showed you and Chi-Chi earlier today? " she changed the subject.

" OH, yeah, the brain-eraser thingy! " he nodded, " What about it? "

" It seems somebody has, according to the information on my brain-freezer's screen, erased almost 2 billion thoughts

and memories that contain the word 'Kakarrotto'. " Bulma bit her lip, " Somehow every little memory of you has been erased

off of Vegeta's brain and is currently sitting in the memory banks to my machine. He really DOESN'T remember who you are. "

Goku's shoulders slumped, " Veh--Veggie WASN'T playing with me earlier? " he started to breathe more quickly.

" I'm sorry Goku. I should've locked the door and made sure you were all out of the lab when I left. " she said

sadly, " I KNEW there was something wrong when the lights all flickered off upstairs; that only happens when one of the

machine's in the lab sucks up more power than it's supposed to normally use! I'm not even sure if I'll be able to get

Vegeta's memories back in his head intact! Let alone if he'll survive it! I didn't design my machine to put the

'bad memories' BACK in the person's head! " she paused, hearing the large saiyajin starting to cry on the other end of the

phone, " This means I'll have to create a whole new addition to the brain-freezer and then use Vegeta has a test subject for

it. But I DON'T want him to know he's had 2 billion-some thoughts and memories sucked out of his head, oh-kay? Without his

little, urm, obsessive hobby with you, Vegeta will not only get angry with finding out what's happened to him, but he's

likely to blow up the entire city!! Because without YOU, HE doesn't CARE! "

The larger saiyajin smiled, touched, " Aww, I am little Veggie's anchor of love. "

Bulma sweatdropped, " Um, right. Just don't tell him what Chi-Chi did to his brain, at least until we fix it,

alright? "

Goku gasped suddenly, " CHI-CHAN?! " he put the phone down.

" Uh, heh-heh, oops. " Bulma twitched, " Me and my big mouth. "

" You TOLD HIM it was Chi-Chi who did it?! " Mirai gawked.

" I didn't mean to! It just, slipped out. " she fumbled.

" CHI-CHAN?! " Goku gasped again turning to Chi-Chi, who had now backed up to the doorway and was staring blankly at

him. He sent a pouty stubborn death-glare at her. Chi-Chi sweatdropped.

" Ehh....Goku it was an honest mistake! " she laughed, " Why don't you go take that nap you wanted? "

" You ERASED my little buddy's BRAIN on me! " he said, continuously death-glaring at her.

" He-would've-erased-yours-first-if-I-had-let-him!! " Chi-Chi exclaimed, " That's why he dragged you down there! The

Ouji wanted to erase your memories of everyone but him so he could turn you into his little Ouji love-slave!! "

" Servant-maid. " Goku shuddered, correcting her.

" Yes. Servant-maid. " Chi-Chi said in equal disgust, " But it was a power struggle, Goku! If I didn't stop him he

would've used that machine to suck your brain dry! I couldn't just stand by and watch him do that! "

" So you sucked out little Veggie's brain INSTEAD?! " Goku returned to his death-glare, which looked slightly less

menacing than Vegeta's.

" Goku you would've done the same thing if you were in my position! " Chi-Chi retorted.

" I would've unplugged that mean machine and dragged little Veggie back upstairs! I wouldn't have used it to suck his

brain out instead!!! " he said, hurt, " How could you do that to him, Chi-chan! Veggie never did anything wrong! " Goku

exclaimed in a real overdramatic sob.

Chi-Chi opened her mouth to speak only to have him interupt her.

" --I mean, all Veggie needs is a little love and someone to care about him and he turns out just fine! And now he

doesn't know he has either!! " Goku sniffled, then bolted to attention, " That's what I need to do! I need to go over to

Veggie's house and take care of him and maybe if I try really really hard I can get his little Veggie-brain to remember who I

am and have that knowledge come back up to the surface and he'll say 'oh thank you for saving me Kakarrotto'! And then I'll

go buy him some ice cream. " he nodded cheerfully. Chi-Chi face-faulted, " YEAH! That's the plan! " Goku eagerly pumped his

fist in the air.

" Goku I'm NOT letting you go back over to the Ouji's house. He's probably even more dangerous then he was when he

was wildly obsessed with you! " Chi-Chi stomped her foot, blocking the door.

" You are in no po-sition to talk bad about my poor little Veggie. " Goku went back to sending death glares in her

direction, then walked up to the door and teleported outside the room and stomped down the stairs. Chi-Chi blinked for a

minute before realizing what he had done. She scrambled to beat him down the steps, " GOKU-SAN YOU GET BACK UP HERE AND TAKE

YOUR STUPID NAP RIGHT NOW!! " she screeched to a halt, now blocking the bottom of the stairs. Goku stopped at the bottom

still glaring at her. Chi-Chi sweatdropped at how long he had kept the same expression on his face.

" ... " Goku hopped over the side of the railing and walked past her to the front door. Chi-Chi dashed past him again

and then blocked the front door.

" I swear if you teleport out of here right now you are not going to be allowed to see that Ouji for the next 6

MONTHS! "

" I'm GOING to go take care of my little Veggie, Chi-chan. " he said sternly.

" NO YOU'RE NOT! " she snapped only to let out a yelp of surprise as the door flung open from behind her.

" HI MOM! We're back from the supermarket! " Gohan said happily, in the doorway with a plastic bag full of food in

his hands.

" We got the cookies and pudding and everything else! OH! And the bakery lady gave me a free piece of fudge! " Goten

said, his face splattered in chocolate goo from the large piece of fudge in his hand.

" I like fudge! " Goku instantly cheered up.

" Good. Hey Toussan could you help us get this stuff away? " Gohan said, heading into the kitchen.

" Here Gohan, I'll help. " Chi-Chi said pleasantly. Goku waddled after her with the death-glare on his face again.

Goten shrugged and happily ate his fudge as he followed them.

" Uh, Kaasan, did you ever have the feeling you were being watched? " Gohan asked uneasily.

" Yes. " Chi-Chi said flatly, feeling Goku still glaring behind her as he loomed over her shoulder while she put

the groceries away.

" Umm, is there anything I should know about? " Gohan whispered to her.

Chi-Chi sighed, " I used one of Bulma's machines to erase all the Ouji's memories and 'thoughts' about Goku and now

he's mad because his 'Veggie' doesn't 'love' him anymore. " she rattled off tiredly.

" YOU WHAT?! " Gohan gawked, dropping the puddingcup he had in his hand to the floor. Goten did a dive-bomber and

slid across the floor just intime to catch it. He sat up and started to eat it.

" The Ouji wanted to erase Goku's memories of everyone but him. I wanted to erase the Ouji's memories of Goku thereby

eliminating the Ouji's plan. We traded insults, I tricked him into sitting down in the chair, I won and he lost. " she

shrugged it off.

" And now Toussan's glaring at you. "

" Pretty much. "

" ... "

" ... "

" I'm going to go take care of my little Veggie now. " Goku said, still glaring as he turned around and headed back

for the front door.

" NO YOU'RE NOT YOU GO TAKE YOUR NAP RIGHT NOW!! " Chi-Chi shouted.

" Nuh--NO! " the large saiyajin tried to angrily retort, which, seeing as he had very little practice in it, came out

considerably weak-sounding.

" GOKU YOU GO UP TO YOUR ROOM AND NAP RIGHT NOW OR I WILL GET OUT THE NEEDLE AND GIVE YOU A CHECKUP!!! " she screamed

. Goku self-consiously rubbed his arm, nervous.

" But--I wanna----Veh-geee~~~ "

" _N-O-W_!!!!!! " Chi-Chi roared at the top of her lungs. Goku sighed and relented, waddling back up the stairs to

his room where he promptly shut the door, " Hmph. There. I win. " she nodded, then smiled, " I seem to be winning everything

today. "

" You shouldn't yell at Toussan, you're just helping VEGETA win. " Gohan said casually only to have Chi-Chi glare at

him, " Well, that's what you always tell us! " he sweatdropped.

" Oh be quiet! " Chi-Chi snorted, " If you were there you both would've agreed with me what I did was right!....now

where's the mayonnaise? "

/dl

" Oh Veggie, if only I hadn't left you and Chi-chan alone in the lab maybe your brain would still be oh-kay, and

you'd still know who I am. " Goku sniffled as he lay in bed, " This would usually be the point where I'd ask you what you'd

think I should do but since you're not here I can't even do that! I'm so sorry Veggie! " he sighed, closing his eyes, " My

poor easily-confused little Veggie, what am I going to do? "

/dl

:::" Zzzz...zzzZZZzzz...ZZZzzZZzzzz.... "

" *tap*tap*tap!* "

" Wha-huh? " Goku opened his eyes to find a little figure staring overtop of him wearing a small blue and white gi

similar to Goku's blue and orange one. He rubbed his forehead, moving his bangs around while his tail floated and twitched in

random directions.

" Hi Kakay! "

" DREAM-VEGGIE!! " the larger saiyajin chirped happily as he sat up, grinning almost-stupidly, the ouji mirroring his

expression, " This must mean I am asleep now! HOO-RAY! So dream-Veggie, whatcha been doin since I last went to bed? "

" Waiting for you to get back. " the smaller saiyajin squeaked out w/big sparkily eyes.

Goku's eyes widened, " AHHHH! " he squealed, grabbing and hugging the Vegeta-look-a-like tightly, " Aww dream-Veggie,

you are even sweeter than the REAL Veggie! " the large saiyajin nodded, " I always like THESE dreams. "

" Mommy-Mommy we brought you a fishy! " a chibinized, 5 year old Gogeta chirped as he and a similarly-sized and aged

chibi Vejitto ran into the room, Vejitto holding the large fish in his hands.

" Hi Goggie and Ji-chan! " Goku grinned.

Vejitto plopped the large fish on the bed Goku was sitting in, " For you! " the chibi said happily, pointing to the

fish.

" I ALWAYS like THESE dreams. " Goku repeated with joy, then frowned and turned to Vegeta, " Dream-Veggie, I have a

problem. "

" Is it the fish? Cuz we can get another fish. " Vegeta said.

" NO!--no, the fish is fine. " Goku waved his hands in the air.

" Hear that kids, you did a good job! " the ouji smiled at the fusions who both grinned.

" YAY! " they cheered, then plopped themselves on the floor and started playing catch with a small ball of ki.

Goku took a deep breath, " Dream-Veggie, Chi-chan used Bulma's machine to make real-Veggie forget who I am and now I

am sad. " he sniffled, " AND IT'S ALL BECAUSE I LEFT VEGGIE ALONE!!! "

" Baka Onna, figures. " Vegeta rolled his eyes as he levitated in the air with his legs crossed indian style and his

arms folded. He put a hand on each knee.

" And NOW she won't let me go back to real-Veggie's house to try and help him remember who I am! "

" Well Kakarrotto, personally I think you have every right to go back to real-Veggie's house. " he smirked, then

pounded his fist against his chest, " Follow your saiyajin instincts! For they can never lead you astray and may show you

new places to find snacks in on the way to your destination!! "

" I like snacks. " Goku smiled.

" Me too! " the ouji chirped.

" ... "

" ... "

" VEGGIEHUGS!!! " Goku shouted with glee almost like a war-cry as he tackled Vegeta out of his spot floating in the

air onto the bed hugging the ouji tightly, " Thank you little dream-Veggie! I shall follow my heart and save little

real-Veggie! "

The smaller saiyajin hugged back, " You are welcome, Kakay! "

" Heeheehee, awwwwww.........hey dream-Veggie? "

" Yeah? " Vegeta smiled.

" Let's go fishing. " Goku said happily, picking the ouji up under his arms, " Whadda ya say? "

" YEAH! " Vegeta cheered, jumping down, " Come on Kaka-chan! I'll race you there! " he said, running out of the room.

Goku sat there for a moment with a musing smile on his face, " ...heehee.......HEY! VEGGIE WAIT FOR ME YOU DIDN'T

SAY WHEN WE COULD START! WAITUP! " he shouted cheerfully:::

/dl

" Mmmm...fish... " Goku sighed as he licked his chops, then opened his eyes slightly to see he was back in his room

and a half-hour had passed. He sat up with a determined look on his face, " I know now what I must do! " the large saiyajin

lept out the bed and stood ontop of it, " I must go forth and heed dream-Veggie's adveggice to save the real Veggie from

going a-stray due to his hopefully temporary loss of memory! I shall use my awesome 'kaka-skills' to bring Veggie's lost

memories to the surface! And I shall do it all starting NOW! " he nodded, then teleported himself out of the house.

" Oh Go-chan, are you feeling any better? " Chi-Chi smiled, sticking her head in the doorway only to see the covers

up over a large mound. She smiled, " Aww, he DID go to sleep. Don't worry Go-chan, it's all for the best, and you'll feel

even better once you wake up--because I'm making you some cupcakes! "

" *KA-BOOM*!! "

" KAAAAASAN!!! " Goten's voice wailed from downstairs. Chi-Chi's bottom left eye-lid twitched.

" Oh for crying out loud, Goten! What did you do now! I TOLD you not to touch the oven! "

/dl

" *doo-doo-doodoo, do do do, doodoodoo* " Vegeta whistled in a half interested way as he carried food and supplies

in and out of Capsule Corp.

" Well, you seem to be feeling a little less, erm, bored. " Bulma smiled.

" Yes. I'm going to take a little trip. " the ouji snickered, carrying several more boxes of food outside.

" Tri--TRIP!? Vegeta I really don't think this is the best time for you to be taking a trip. " she paled, " I mean,

if you're off somewhere without your memor--uhh, I just think you should stay here where it's safe. "

" You mean where it's BORING. " Vegeta rolled his eyes. Bulma walked out after him and gasped at what was sitting on

the front lawn, " The sa-sa-sa-sa-sa-sa-sa-sa-- "

" Spaceship? " Vegeta smirked, " Why yes, it is. Where did you think I was going, Mexico? " he snorted a laugh, then

tapped the round ship a couple times and tossed the boxes of food inside it along with the other things he had brought

outside, " I haven't used it since that whole 'space-circus' incident last year but it seems to be running properly. "

" Where do plan on going in it? And, how long are you going to be gone for? " Bulma choked out in shock. The ouji

gave her a genuine smile.

" I have absolutely no idea! " he shrugged, " But traveling through space is going to loads more fun then sitting

around and watching that earth-drivel of yours on tv! Who needs a destination? I'm going to look for some newer, bigger

challanges!! " the ouji said determinedly, " And I mean bigger as in bigger than looking for the baka remote control. This is

going to be exciting! I'm going to get to see all the planets and fancy interplanetary pit-stops which I liked enough to not

blow them up once I got to their planet. Won't need any money either. Everyone up there still knows me as the fearsome and

dangerous saiyajin warrior--which I am, yet slightly less brash and even smarter. " Vegeta pointed to his head, " I'm not

abandoning you though, I'll be back eventually. " he tossed another box into the ship, " But for now, I'm going to have a

little adventure. I control my own destiny along with my own vacation! And NOTHING is going to stand in my way! " he whipped

around.

" Vegeta! " Bulma called out.

" OOF! " the ouji yelped as he smushed into whatever was behind him. He pulled away, breathing heavily, " Gahhh..ick

it smells like FISH! " Vegeta saw the orange pants, " Oh. It's you again. Wait! How did YOU get here all of a sudd-- " the

ouji looked up to see the large saiyajin staring at him with a big warm smile on his face as he leaned against the side of

the ship.

" Hi. " Goku chuckled embarassingly.

The ouji's cheeks went a bright red, " You're, standing in my way. " he choked out.

" Where're ya goin, little Veggie-chan? " the larger saiyajin said, still in the same position.

" That's none of your business, now MOVE! " Vegeta yelled.

" It's dangerous in outer space, Veggie. Besides you said you wanted to go together, and you don't even have your

really big ship past the planning stages yet, you told me so last week. " Goku smiled, Vegeta stared back, completely creeped

out and glowing bright red at the same time.

" I..duh--don't care! I'm going into space and I'm not letting YOU or anyone else stop m--- "

" ---e. " the larger saiyajin finished softly, whipping something out from his back pocket and holding it out to the

ouji, " Veggie don't go. I don't want you to leave. " Goku handed the flower to the ouji, who's eyes widened to three times

their normal size, " Come inside Veggie, there's lots of fun stuff to do here but if you don't stay you'll never find out

what. " he said, leaving his post and heading into Capsule Corp. Vegeta stared at the flower in a confused daze while Bulma

stood there with her jaw hanging open.

" WHAT THE HECK WAS THAT?! " she gawked, then turned to Vegeta and did a double-take, " Hey is that a rose? " Bulma

blinked.

" Ohhhhhhh..... " the ouji shook a little bit as he stared out into space, glowing bright red.

Bulma threw her arms in the air, utterly and hopelessly confused, " WHAT'S GOING ON HERE!!!!! "

END OF PART ONE!

Goku: If I told you I'd have to kill you. (breaks into a grin) Heehee, just kidding! (waves happily to audiance)

Chuquita: (sweatdrops at ending point) Sounds like somethin I'd write at 3 in the morning.

Vegeta: I _AM_ going to get my memory back, right?

Chuquita: (smiles at him) Course you are Veggie! The point is how we get there!

Vegeta: (twitch, sighs)

Chuquita: (decides to dismiss certain-ideas by giving away part 2 spolier) Fic-Son-kun is going to try and keep Veggie on the

planet by using some of the sneakyness he has seen Veggie use on him to get him to do things in previous stories. But Bulma

puts a stop to it about halfway through the next chapter. At least, that's what I got so far. (looks down at nonexistant

paper of things-going-on-in-part-2) Oh! And Happy Memorial Day everybody! (grins at Son) That's how I got to stay up late

last night to finish the story part of this fic, cuz I'm off from school today!

Goku: Yay!

Vegeta: (taps Chu) (suspicously) About that bloody bite-mark you mentioned at the beginning Corner...

Chuquita: Oh, THAT! I've been watching sub GT episodes off of dba and in episode 29, 14:00 minutes into the show, the

chibinized Son-kun bites the possessed-by-bebi Veggie's left arm. It looks very painful and deep; and you can see the giant

bloody bite-wound in 3 more scenes after it happens. Oh! And this is before bebi starts transforming gt Veggie's body so it

still looks exactly like gt Veggie w/the exception of the white hair and red-marks on his face from bebi being inside him.

Goku: (blinks) But I am not a cannibibal.

Chuquita: (correction) Cannibal.

Goku: Exactly! (turns to Veggie) I would NEVER eat you Veggie, even if you were possessed, you know that, right?

Vegeta: (w/terrified look on his face) (making small squeaky noises) Ehhhh...........eee.............iih...........

Goku: (cocks his head) Little Veggie?

Vegeta: (holding his left arm protectively) ........eep...........aaaah.........o........

Goku: (to Chu) (pouts) Chu-sama tell Veggie I am not crazy enough to eat his arm off his body!

Chuquita: (to Son) You DID have that weird look in your eye after he threw you into the cliff for biting his arm....

Goku: (grins) Weird as in silly weird or weird as in crazy weird?

Chuquita: Crazy weird.

Goku: O. (shrugs happily) That's oh-kay! I'm sure GT Veggie didn't mind. Heck, regular Veggie's gotten bruised and bleeded

lots of times in battle before! RIGHT, Veggie? (turns to Veggie) Veggie?

Vegeta: (now has his chair stationed about 20 feet away from Goku) (has to shout cuz he's so far away) WHATEVER YOU SAY,

KAKARROTTO!!

Goku: (sweatdrops) Veggie I'm not gonna hurt you.

Vegeta: (mockingly) HA!

Goku: (frowns) What's wrong with little Veggie?

Chuquita: Remember the whole biting-bond thing Veggie was arming himself against back in our "Kakarrotto v1.0" fic where you

got amnesia and your brain went 2 year old chibi and you thought you were still teething?

Goku: Yeah?

Chuquita: That's what this is.

Goku: Oh...........(brightens up) OHHHHH!!!! NOW I get it!

Chuquita: I thought if it was on-purpose you did it in an attempt to contact Veggie mentally from inside his possessed body

and try to get Veggie to re-possess his body back so he could free everyone else bebi was controlling and then they could get

Bebi out of Veggie's head without killing Veggie in the process. But I'm selective with what I accept in gt & what I don't

since it's not completely offical like db & z.

Vegeta: (still far away, scoots a little closer) Like gt me's freakish growth-spurt and chopped hair and lack-of-caring-about

-Kakarrotto-till-I-have-an-epiphany-near-the-end-of-the-show-and-finally-start-going-back-to-normal?

Chuquita: Yah, pretty much.

Goku: Veggie come back over here! WE MISS YOU!

Vegeta: (snaps) NO!

(Chu & Goku sweatdrop)

Goku: I am sad.

Chuquita: (puts toys on the desk) Here you go.

Goku: YAY!

Chuquita: I got these at Suncoast the other day, (holds up dog plushie) This is an Ein plushie from Cowboy Bebop, (holds up

little figures) This is Snoopy, Woodstock, and 2 other birds playing baseball from Peanuts, and these, (holds up four little

figures and four metal coins) are saiyajin I-men figurines!

Goku: (squeals) SUPER-EXTRA LITTLE VEGGIES! [grabs Veggie figure and moves its arms and legs and head around]

Chuquita: They're only 3 inches tall but they're so kawaii! And the Goku figure is actually SMILING as opposed to all those

other figures of him where he's "serious". They're built kind of like those little lego-people, only bigger. AND [puts coin

underneath Gohan] The ssj ones lightup when you put them on anything magnetic!

Goku: (eyes widen) OOH! LEMMIE TRY! (grabs coin and puts it on ssj Veggie's feet) (smiles) ....... (frowns) It's not working.

Chuquita: (sigh) Yeah, Veggie's light-up action hasn't worked yet. (brightens up) But that's oh-kay! I just think he needs a

new battery or something. I originally wanted to get the regular Veggie w/Trunks as ssj cuz they both looked cooler in those

forms but they didn't have any. That and I haven't had any dbz figurines before so all four of 'um are pretty special. Goku

cuz he's actually smiling, Gohan cuz he lights up, Trunks cuz his sword actually comes out of its case and fits in his hand

and you can swing it around, and Veggie cuz, well, he's Veggie.

Vegeta: (still far away) (flatly) I feel so loved.

Goku: (happily) I LUV YOU VEGGIE!

Vegeta: (scoots even farther away)

Chuquita: (sweatdrops) If the world was flat he would've fallen over the edge by now.

Goku: (picks up Goku figurine and Veggie figurine) (bends down so his head plops on the desk) (w/his figure in left & Veggie

in the right) Hello I-Veggie, why are you so scared? (moves his right hand) Because I do not want you to eat me I-Kakarrotto.

(moves his left hand) Aww, I-Veggie I would never eat you because you are my little buddy and buddies do not eat each other!

(to Veggie) LOOK VEGGIE! I-Veggie and I-me are giving each other a hug!

Vegeta: (snorts) THAT DOESN'T MEAN I'M COMING BACK OVER THERE, YOU, YOU,..........YOU!!! [points paranoidly at him]

Goku: (sweatdrops) My poor Veggie's brain....

Chuquita: (also sweatdrops) Both fic Veggie AND corner Veggie... (to audiance) Since I have no more info on the 'live-action

movie' instead we're just gonna use interesting dbz products for today's fic's Corners. (grins) And I've seen a LOT of those!

Goku: Yeah! Like the me that has a clock in his tummy!

Chuquita: (nods) Hai. Oh, we also have a quick poll mini-question thingy!

Quick Poll Mini-Question Thingy: Have you heard Goku and/or Veggie's sub voice before?

Chuquita: (happily) I have!

Goku: Me too! Cuz I hear my voice everytime I speak! (grins)

Vegeta: (sweatdrops) Big baka....

Chuquita: See you in part 2 everybody!

Goku: (grins) Remember! Only YOU can prevent forest fires!.....or a Veggie with a very large firehose.
