Quote of the Week: -from "Sherman's Lagoon"
Hawthorne: Whoa Nelly, look what's comin my way! The hind quarters of a large hairless beach ape.
Only in crab dreams do targets like this happen.
Sherman: It screams, "pinch me!"
Hawthorne: Like a ripe melon.
Lady: AHHHHH!! [leaps into the air]
Hawthorn: (smiling) Ya never know what life's gonna through your way.
Sherman: Nice hang time.
Chuey's Corner:
Vegeta: [looks up at the sign, grabs a magic-marker and crosses it out, then re-writes beneath it]
The Great and Powerful Saiyajin no Ouji's Corner:
Vegeta: HA! Much better. [sits down in Chu's seat; wearing a crown & a deep red cape around his neck;
scepter in his hands. Both the cape & scepter are at least 2 sizes too big for him]
Goku: (curious) How's it feel to host the Corner for a change?
Vegeta: (smiles) Good, Kakarrot. It feels very good. [smacks Goku over the head w/his scepter] And
BOW to your King before you speak!
Goku: (groans) Ohhhh...
Chuquita: [walks onset wearing her pajamas which remarkably resemble Veggie's training outfit] [drops
her slippers on the desk] Hi guys! (to Veggie) So! How's the King of the Corner doin today?
Goku: (whispers to Chu) Only 2 minutes on the job and he's already turned egomaniacal on me.
Chuquita: [looks up] "The Great and Powerful Saiyajin no Ouji's Corner"??? Kinda long isn't it?
Vegeta: It is NOT long. It states its purpose VERY WELL.
Goku: (grins) How about we call it 'lil Veggie's Corner'!
Vegeta: Ugh! That sounds too cutsy! As ruler of this section of the room I am to be FEARED, not smothered
in mush and adoration!
Chuquita: (smirks) I agree with Son-San. 'Lil Veggie's Corner' has a certain 'ring' to it.
Goku: (blushes) Aww, thanks Chu-sama!
Vegeta: (glares at Chu) YOU'RE JUST AGREEING WITH HIM IN ORDER TO MAKE ME SUFFER!!!
Chuquita: (impishly) Maybe. (perks up) Buuuuuut, being a democratic organization; since you've been voted
out 2 to 1, Son-San & I win!
Goku: (squeals) YAY!
Lil Veggie's Corner:
Goku: [sitting at the desk w/Chu & Veggie] [draws a little heart over the i] (giggling) Heeheehee!
Vegeta: (pouty) Oh I hate you all. [folds his arms in contempt]
Chuquita: Oh calm down Veggie. You're still King; well, for this story anyway.
Vegeta: (aggrivated) And what are you still doing here! I thought you left me in charge to go on vacation!
Chuquita: [points to her pj's] I am.
Goku: (grins) Hey! Chu-chan's clothes look just like Veggie's!
Vegeta: (to Chu) [narrows his eyes] You're mocking me, aren't you?
Goku: (eagerly) Where'd you get them Chu-sama? I wanna pair of Veggie-clothes too!
Vegeta: [smacks Goku w/his scepter] NO YOU DON'T!!
Goku: [stops the scepter before it hits him] (giggles) Yes I do!
Chuquita: I don't think they'd have any in your size, Son. I ordered it out of Victoria's Secret.
Goku & Vegeta: ...
Goku: You didn't tell me you shop at Victoria's Secret, Veggie?
Vegeta: [thunks his head down upon the desk; little veins bulging on his head in anger] RRRRRRRRRR.....
Goku: (to Chu) Gosh, I always wondered where Veggie got all that spandex stuff before, and he IS little, but
I never suspected--
Vegeta: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGG!!!! [goes SSJ]
Chuquita: [trying to keep herself from bursting into laughter]
Vegeta: [leaps up at Goku & grabs him by the collar] YOU BIG BAKAYARO!! I HAVE NEVER SHOPPED AT A WOMAN'S
UNDERWEAR STORE BEFORE IN MY LIFE!!! [jumps down & grabs part of Chu's pajamas] SEE! THIS IS MADE OF COTTON
AND POLYESTER! NOT SPANDEX LIKE MY UNIFORM!!!
Chuquita: (smirks at Son) He's right, the spandex ones were WAY too expensive anyway. Nothing Veggie couldn't afford though!
Vegeta: [face turns a pale green]
Goku: [glances at Veggie & giggles at him]
Vegeta: This is sick and embarassing! (summons up his ego) AS RULER OF THIS CORNER I ORDER YOU PEASANTS TO START THE STORY
BEFORE OR FACE MY WRATH!!
Goku: (whispers) It's gotten pretty infected since the last time I saw it.
Vegeta: (gritting through his teeth) WRATH, not RASH, Kakarrot.
Goku: Oh.
Chuquita: (smiles at the camera) On with the show!
Summary: Veggie and Goku have a buddy spat and Goku decides its time to get himself a new little buddy. While taking back all
the presents Goku has given Veggie in the past he comes across Plushie. But on his way to show Bulma, accidently knocks into
her enlarging-ray which causes Plushie to become Veggie-sized. Goku dubs Plushie as his new little buddy which thoroughly
creeps out Vegeta further when Goku proceeds to treat his lost plush-toy as if it really was the ouji. When Vegeta's the
only one who notices Plushie starting to move around on his own, will anyone believe him?
Vegeta: "Plushie"...that's that little stuffed toy that 'supposedly' bears a resemblance to yours truely, isn't it?
Goku: (happily) Yes he is!
Chuquita: Only Plushie's cuter.
Vegeta: HE IS NOT! HE DOESN'T EVEN HAVE A NOSE FOR CRYING OUT LOUD! HE'S GOT BEADS FOR EYES!
Goku: (pats Veggie on the back) Ohhh, don't let it getcha down little buddy! I still think you're cute.
In a veggie-kinda-way.
Vegeta: OH SHUT UP!
*****************************************************************************************************************************
" I HATE YOU! "
" I HATE YOU MORE! "
" BAKAYARO! "
" MEANIE! "
Mirai poked his head around the corner and peered into the living room to see Goku & Vegeta snarling at each other,
" Uhh, you guys oh-kay? " he blinked. The two continued in their standoff.
" You have NO IDEA how wrong you are, do you Kakarrot? " Vegeta smirked at him.
" Actually, VEGETA, you're the one who's wrong. " Goku folded his arms & glared down at the prince.
" Ha, I doubt it. It's a shame your tiny little Kaka-brain is just too small for you to figure that out. " Vegeta
boasted.
" OH YEAH? WELL IF YOU'RE GONNA BE LIKE THAT THEN MAYBE YOU'RE NOT WORTHY OF BEING MY LITTLE BUDDY AFTER ALL! " Goku
screamed angrily.
Vegeta gasped in shock, " You wouldn't DARE! "
" I DARE! " Goku shouted back, " YOU ARE NOW OFFICALLY NO LONGER MY LITTLE BUDDY! THE END! GOODBYE " he stomped up
the stairs towards Vegeta's room.
" Hey! Where are you going! " Vegeta pointed at him.
" _I'M_ going to take back all the stuff I so stupidly gave you. " Goku said stubbornly as he went into the ouji's
bedroom & slammed the door shut behind him, leaving Vegeta standing there; an overwhelming look of loneliness engulfing his
face.
" What just happened here? " Chi-Chi said, walking up to Mirai.
" Son-San and Toussan just had a HUGE argument! " Mirai exclaimed.
" Really? About what? " Chi-Chi asked, interested.
" I don't know, but whatever it was it must have made Son pretty mad. He just FIRED Toussan. He's not even calling
him 'Veggie' anymore. " Mirai said, worried.
" You're kidding! " a large smile appeared on Chi-Chi's face, " You mean Goku's FINALLY realized how worthless that
idiot ouji is! WOW! " she clasped her hands together, " No more annoying little ouji trying to still my baby over to the dark
side! Somebody up there must be smiling down on me today. " she hugged Mirai, " I'm going to help him go pack. GOKU! "
Chi-Chi called out after him as she darted up the stairs.
Mirai ran over to Vegeta, " Toussan? Toussan are you alright? What were you two arguing about? "
::Oh no, what have I done! I've just severed every tie I have with Kakarrot! I'll never see him again and he hates me
forever and I've disgraced the title of which he so lovingly placed upon my now unworthy head!:: Panic spread throught the
ouji's brain.
" Toussan? " Mirai said with more consern.
" I'm fine, Mirai, just fine. " Vegeta snarled, " DO YOU HEAR THAT KAKARROT! YOUR PETTY ATTEMPTS TO THRUST MY SOUL
INTO ETERNAL SORROW AND WEEPINESS HAVE BEEN IN VAIN! " he shook his fist in the air, ::Oh no I did it again!:: he mentally
gulped, ::Hmmph, well, who needs a big baka like that hanging around anyway. Not _ME_:: " Come on Mirai, let's go get some
ice cream to celebrate my FREEDOM from Kakarrot's shackles of little buddiness. " he grabbed his keys and marched out of
Capsule Corp.
Mirai shrugged and followed him.
" And this, and this, and that, and this, " Goku continued to toss one object after another into the large garbage
bag Chi-Chi was holding.
" Well I have to say I'm VERY PROUD of you honey. " Chi-Chi beamed at him, " I always knew the day would come when
you would see Vegeta for what he REALLY is; a Kako-stealing creep! "
Goku paused, " Did you just say "Kako"?? " he raised an eyebrow at her.
Chi-Chi stared at him, shocked, " Oh my God, yes I did. " she shook her head, " Quick! Goku hurry and get the rest of
those 'gifts', I think the ouji-air in this room is starting to taint our brains! "
" There, I think I've got everything. " Goku nodded.
" Great! " Chi-Chi smiled, " I'll go take this out to the car. "
" I'll meet you in a minute. " Goku responded, " I wanna take one more look around to see if I missed anything. " he
said as Chi-Chi left. He oversaw the room for a couple minutes, which was now surprisingly almost bare, " Wow, I never knew
how much stuff I've given Veggi--Vegeta over the years. Gosh. " his eyes transfixed on two items sitting ontop of a bookcase.
Goku floated up to them to see it was a pair of two plush toys, one of him and another, more familiar one. Goku's eyes
widened, " PLUSHIE!!! " he squealed, grabbing the toy & squeezing it, " OH MY LITTLE PLU-CHAN! It's been forever hasn't it? "
he sniffled at the sight of his toy, which was now dusty from sitting on the bookcase for so long, " Vegg---HE must have been
the one who bought you after I left you back at the toystore! Oh I'm so happy to see you again! I missed you Plu-chan. " he
held the toy away from him. The small plush toy looked almost identical to Vegeta; wearing a saiyajin fighting uniform, white
boots, gloves, and a spiky black tuft of hair on its head. Two black, vertical, oval shaped beads stared back at Goku. A tiny
u-shaped smile on its face, " OHhhh! I gotta show this to Bulma! She'll flip! "
" HA! It's perfect! " Bulma stepped away from her invention, then patted a rather humongous strawberry, " I, Bulma
Briefs, beautiful world-famous genius, have just created an invention to stop world hunger! " she proudly surveyed the
several other englarged foods next to her, a cornflake, banana, chocolate-chip and orange, " Just this orange alone could
feed an entire South-American country for up to 5 months! "
" Meow. " Dr. Briefs small black cat stared up at her skeptically.
" OH WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING AT! " she snapped at him, " This invention is pure GENIUS! It's so simple to operate a
complete MORON could use it! "
" BULMA! LOOKIT THIS LOOKIT THIS! " Goku cried happily as he ran down the stairs and into her lab. The cat rolled its
eyes at the saiyajin's wonderful timing.
" GO-KUUU!! STOP! " Bulma shrieked as the saiyajin suddenly paused in mid-step.
" How's this? " Goku said, his one foot still in the air.
" Better. " Bulma sighed. Goku put his foot down and wandered over to her, " You could have destroyed my enlarging
ray. "
" ... " Goku stared at her blankly, " ...your whosit wha? "
" Enlarging Ray. It makes things bigger. " Bulma explained, " Say you were out of potato chips and all you had left
were crumbs. Well, " she placed some crumbs on the platform, then pressed a button which sent a beam onto the platform.
Instantly, 3 large jagged potato chips covered the platform, " Voliá! " Bulma handed Goku a potato chip, then ate on herself.
" OOOOOOOH! " Goku said in awe, " THAT'S AMAZING! "
" Come over here, I'll show you the other samples I've made. " Bulma said, walking off deeper into the lab. Goku
tossed Plushie over his shoulder & onto the platform, then skipped over to the giant foods across the room.
" You mean this used to be one of those tiny little chocolate chips they put in bags? " Goku patted the super-sized
chocolate chip.
" Now, what did you come down to tell me about? " Bulma said, changing the subject.
" ...OH! " Goku said, " You won't believe who I found in VEGETA'S room. " he held out the hand he was using to hold
Plushie.
" ...Goku that's just your hand. " Bulma said, confused.
" No it's not, silly. It's---AHH! PLUSHIE!! " Goku gasped at his now empty hands, " PLU-CHAN! " he noticed the
enlarging beam still; a Vegeta-sized object laying helplessly on the platform. Bulma quickly turned the machine off as they
both stared down at the object with their jaws hanging open.
" Oh, Goku, I, I'm sorry I-- "
" --AAH! " Goku grabbed the super-sized plush and squeezed it, " LITTLE PLU-CHAN LOOK HOW BIG YOU GOT! " he said
happily, " Why you're almost the size of my EX little buddy! "
" "Ex"??? " Bulma said, surprised.
" Umm-hmm. " Goku nodded, " We had a buddy-spat so I decided to get a divorce. " he said stiffly, then went back to
cuddling Plushie, " Isn't that right my lil-lil Plu-chan! Yes it is. Daddy doesn't like mean old Veggie-head anymore, no he
doesn't. " he cooed to the toy, " Hey Bulma, you have a bag big enough for Plushie here? I'm taking him back home. "
" Well?.... "
" Lalalalala, " Goku sang to himself as he made his way up the stairs and into the living room. Plushie was now in
a big black garbage bag swung over his shoulder.
" Hi Mr. Goten's Daddy! " Bura chirped happily as she walked by him.
" Hi Bura! " Goku said, also cheerful. Bura froze when she recognized what looked to her like a body bag over Goku's
shoulder.
" AHHH!!! MURDER!! " she cried.
" *BEEP* *BEEP*! " Chi-Chi impatiently honked the horn inside their car as Goku left Capsule Corp and headed towards
her.
" Hi Chi-chan! " he said, sitting down beside her, the bag on his lap, " Turns out I left Plushie back in Vegeta's
bedroom. " he patted the bag.
" Oh, alright. " Chi-Chi said, starting the car up. She did a double-take on the bag, " Goku, do you really think you
need THAT LARGE a bag for that little doll? From what I remember he isn't over a foot tall. "
" Not anymore! " Goku grinned.
Chi-Chi looked at him, confused, " ...right. "
" There we go. " Goku plopped the bag onto the couch and untied it, " We're home Plushie! "
Chi-Chi dropped the last package on the ground inside their home, " *whew*! " she wiped the sweat off her forehead,
then took one look at the object in Goku's bag and shrieked, " OH MY GOD! YOU KILLED VEGETA AND BROUGHT HIM HOME TO BURY HIM
OUT IN THE BACKYARD!!! "
Goku looked over his shoulder at her, stupified. He suddenly started laughing, " Silly Chi-chan! This isn't little
Veh---err, this isn't Vegeta. It's PLUSHIE! " he grabbed the stuffed toy & held it out infront of her, " He got himself
biggie-sized on Bulma's machine by accident. " he grinned, then hugged Plushie, " Plushie's so cute big! "
" ... "
" ... "
" Umm, Goku? " Chi-Chi said uneasily, " Don't you think it would be a little more, well, mentally healthy to change
Plushie back to his 'orignal' size? "
" Chi-chan thinks I'm stupid? " Goku's eyes filled with tears.
" NO! " Chi-Chi said suddenly, waving her hands in protest, " I meant, you see....oh. Goku, having a small stuffed
toy that you sleep with at night and play games with, that's healthy. But to have one, that LARGE and considering the fact
that you just major fight with Vegeta, don't you think that having Plushie that size might subconsiously be trying to tell
you something? Psychologicaly? "
Goku leaned Plushie towards his ear, " Uh huh...uh huh... " he listened as through the doll was whispering to him,
" Yes, Plushie says he would be HONORED to be my new little buddy! "
Chi-Chi sweatdropped.
" Chi-chan, Plushie wants to know if he can stay in the guest room, being that his little plushie-bed's now way too
small for him to sleep in. "
" Goku, he's not a guest. He's a TOY. " Chi-Chi said, aggriavted.
Goku gasped and covered Plushie's ears, " Bite your tongue! Plushie isn't just a toy! He's my little buddy and you
should treat him as such. " he put Plushie on his shoulders, piggyback style, " Come on, cowboy, let's go rangle you a guest
room! " he said in an obviously fake southern-accent.
Chi-Chi watched the scene and shook her head in disqust, " Either he actually believes Plushie is real, or he misses
that ouji more than I thought. "
" I'm so stuu-hooohoo-piiid! " Vegeta wailed as he buried his face in his crossed arms on the table. Mirai sat across
from him in the Ice Cream Shop.
" Don't worry Toussan, it'll be oh-kay. " Mirai laughed nervously as he patted Vegeta on the head.
" HOW! HOW IS IT OH-KAY!! " the ouji snapped, looking up at him, " I'll never be Kakarrotto-chan's little buddy ever
again! "
" But I thought you didn't like being his 'little buddy'? " Mirai scratched his head.
" OH SHUT UP!! " Vegeta screamed at him, then broke off into sobs again, " What am I gonna do! It's not fair! I'm his
prince! He's not allowed to hate me or fire me or say I'm not his little buddy anymore... "
" Well you WERE pretty mean to him the entire time I've known you. It's not like you didn't deserve it. After so many
times of being cruel to Son-San he WOULD eventually get sick of it and snap-- " Mirai froze to see Vegeta sending him
death-glares.
Vegeta sat back in his chair, rage now beginning to override whatever self-pity was left in his body, " I've got to
do something. I've been Kakarrot's little buddy for over 18 years now, MUCH longer than any of his other brain-dead baka
friends have ever held the title. He must be having trouble re-adjusting himself too. " he smirked.
" Actually, Toussan, Son bounces back pretty well from these situa--- "
Vegeta was glaring at him again.
" --tions. " Mirai finished.
" As I was saying, that big idiot is probably doing HIS fair share of wallowing in sadness as well. But if HE sees
that _I_ happen to be doing well with this situation he's libel to come crawling on his hands and knees begging for our
buddyship back. "
" But you're NOT doing well with this. You've been crying since we got in the car to drive up here-- "
" *glare* "
" --oh-kay I'll be quiet. "
Vegeta stood up, " Mirai, we're going home. "
" What? But I'm not finished with my ice-cream yet! "
" Take it with you. " Vegeta interupted him, " The faster we get home, the faster I can get to the phone when
Kakarrot calls up pleading for my return. " He walked outside and over to his car, then placed his hand on it, " Mirai, put
your hand on the car, I'm teleporting us back, it'll be quicker. "
Mirai did as he said, " Teleport? When did YOU learn how to tele-- " before Mirai could finish his sentence he found
himself, along with Vegeta and the car, now in the living room at Capsule Corp, " --port. "
" Vegeta what's the car doing in our house? " Bulma said, walking by them on her way back to the lab.
" Umm, the garage door wouldn't open so we decided to bring it in...through the...front...door. " Vegeta glanced at
the small door leading inside.
Bulma opened her mouth to respond, then just kept on walking, " I won't even bother. "
" Oh NO! This is terrible! " Goku gasped in fright.
" What? What's the matter? " Chi-Chi poked her head into the guest room.
" All of Plushie's little pajamas are too little fit him anymore! " Goku held up a small set of orange pj's, then
compared them to Plushie's now immense size.
" Now do you see why it would be better to change him back. " Chi-Chi said.
" Hmm, I wonder if they make plushie-clothes this size at the toystore... " Goku trailed off, then frowned, " They
don't, do they Chi-chan? "
" No Goku, they don't. " Chi-Chi said, annoyied.
Goku studied his toy's size, then perked up, " Hey! You know, Plushie isn't that big, but I bet he's big enough to
fit into some of-- "
" *DING DONG* *DING DONG*! " the doorbell rang obnoxiously. Vegeta angrily jumped off the couch and stomped over to
the front door.
" Fools! Don't they know I'm waiting for an important call from... " he flung open the door to see Goku staring down
at him, " ...Kakarrot. " he stubbornly folded his arms.
" Vegeta. " Goku said, acknowledging the ouji's existance.
" Here to beg your forgiveness? " Vegeta smirked.
" No. " Goku said bluntly, " Actually, I was wondering, " he put his hand behind his head & grinned sheepishly, " Do
you have an extra pair of pajamas I could borrow? "
" ACK! " Vegeta fell to the ground animé style. He got up, then looked the bigger saiyajin over, " Kakarrot, what do
you need a pair of my pajamas for? "
" Plushie. " Goku flung the stuffed toy out from behind his back & held him under his arm.
Vegeta stared at the doll, an eerie sick-to-my-stomach feeling engulfing him, " Uhhh, right. " he shifted uneasily,
" Didn't Plushie used to be, you know, " he put his hand down to about a foot off the ground, " This tall? "
" Yeah. " Goku answered, " But he accidently got himself biggie-sized and now none of his clothes will fit him.
That's why I thought he could borrow some of yours. "
Vegeta peered at Plushie, who's small, content little smile sent a tinge of jealousy into the ouji, " 'Plushie'. "
he said with disqust, " Fine, Kakarrot. I shall sacrifice a pair of my night-clothes to 'Plushie' here if it will get your
lothed presence as far away from me as possible. " he snarled, then returned with his blue striped pajamas in his arms and
handed them to Goku.
" Look Plushie! Now you have a pair of pj's to go beddy-bye in! " Goku cooed, cuddling Plushie, " Isn't that just
wonderful! Daddy told you he would come through for you and he did. " he grinned at Vegeta, " I'm Plushie's Da-dee! "
The ouji felt his bottom lip begin to wobble at the sight. He shook the feeling off, " I, guess you're pretty close
with the stuffed creature, aren't you? "
" Oh YES! " Goku nodded, " Plushie's my newest little buddy, arentcha little Plu-chan. " he said, waving Plushie's
rounded hand, " Mmm-hmm of course you are. " he squeezed the toy tighter. He heard something sniffle beneath him, then looked
down only to see Vegeta looked back at him angrily, " Vegeta? Are you oh-kay? "
" ERR! GET OUT! GET OUT OF MY HOUSE AND NEVER COME BACK! I DON'T WANT TO SEE YOUR STUPID KAKO-FACE EVER AGAIN! "
Vegeta pointed out the door.
" Hmmph. " Goku snorted at him, " Well don't think it's been a pleasure seeing you again either, VEGETA, cuz it
hasn't, ya meanie. " he said, then teleported off.
" Meanie? " Vegeta squeaked out. Mirai entered the room, beat.
" Wow, I thought I'd NEVER get that car through the laundry-room door. " he noticed Vegeta was now shaking again,
" Toussan? "
" I'VE BEEN REPLACED BY A DOLL!!!! "
" Aww, don't you look CUTE! " Goku admired Plushie in his new sleepwear. The doll was now heavy enough to stand
upright without falling down, " HEY CHI-CHI! COME SEE HOW CUTE LITTLE PLU-CHAN LOOKS! "
Chi-Chi walked into the room and practically gawked at Plushie, " Where did you get those pajamas??! "
" They're Vegeta's. I asked him if I could borrow a pair, seeing as he and Plushie are now nearly about the same
height. " he rubbed Plushie on the head, " So? How's he look? "
Chi-Chi stared at Plushie, " Well, at least he's not Vegeta, that's for sure. "
" Chi-chan will you go get Plushie some warm milk while I tuck him in, it's been a long time since he's been home,
hasn't it Plushie? " Goku hugged him, then picked up Plushie & set him down on the guest bed, " Now don't you worry Plu-chan,
those mean 'ol girls aren't gonna steal you again. " he said as he pulled the covers over Plushie, " Chi-chan and I will be
in the room right across the way so you won't have to worry your cute lil head about anything. And I'll leave the nightlight
on just in case for you, kay? " he smiled lovingly at the doll.
" Here's your milk, your highness. " Chi-Chi said sarcastically as she set the glass of milk on the counter next to
Plushie.
" Oh, Plushie can't drink that. " Goku said to her.
" What?! Why not! "
" Well, little Plu-chan sometimes has trouble with cups. " he held out Plushie's mitten-like hands, " He'd prefer if
you'd put it in a bottle for him. "
Chi-Chi stared at him in astonishment, " Let me get this straight, you, want me, to go poor warm milk in a BOTTLE for
your giant stuffed dolly to DRINK?! "
" Yes. " Goku said as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.
" THAT'S CRAZY!!! " she exclaimed, " IF YOU WANT TO TREAT THIS TOY LIKE YOUR BABY THEN _YOU_ GO GET HIM A BOTTLE! "
Chi-Chi left the room in a huff.
Goku hugged Plushie sympathetically, " Oh Plu-chan I'm sorry Chi-Chi was mean to you. Well I still love you and I'll
make sure you get some nice warm milk so you can get to sleep better. " he said, then got up, took the glass and left the
room, shutting the lights off on his way. He returned and sat the bottle next to Plushie, " Goodnight little Plu-chan. " Goku
said, waving to him as he reached for the doorknob. Plushie waved back & then closed his eyes. Goku did a double-take, only
to find Plushie's beads still open, " That's funny, I could've sworn you just---NAH! " he threw out the idea, then closed the
door behind him, " Sweet dreams little angel. "

Hawthorne: Whoa Nelly, look what's comin my way! The hind quarters of a large hairless beach ape.
Only in crab dreams do targets like this happen.
Sherman: It screams, "pinch me!"
Hawthorne: Like a ripe melon.
Lady: AHHHHH!! [leaps into the air]
Hawthorn: (smiling) Ya never know what life's gonna through your way.
Sherman: Nice hang time.
Chuey's Corner:
Vegeta: [looks up at the sign, grabs a magic-marker and crosses it out, then re-writes beneath it]
The Great and Powerful Saiyajin no Ouji's Corner:
Vegeta: HA! Much better. [sits down in Chu's seat; wearing a crown & a deep red cape around his neck;
scepter in his hands. Both the cape & scepter are at least 2 sizes too big for him]
Goku: (curious) How's it feel to host the Corner for a change?
Vegeta: (smiles) Good, Kakarrot. It feels very good. [smacks Goku over the head w/his scepter] And
BOW to your King before you speak!
Goku: (groans) Ohhhh...
Chuquita: [walks onset wearing her pajamas which remarkably resemble Veggie's training outfit] [drops
her slippers on the desk] Hi guys! (to Veggie) So! How's the King of the Corner doin today?
Goku: (whispers to Chu) Only 2 minutes on the job and he's already turned egomaniacal on me.
Chuquita: [looks up] "The Great and Powerful Saiyajin no Ouji's Corner"??? Kinda long isn't it?
Vegeta: It is NOT long. It states its purpose VERY WELL.
Goku: (grins) How about we call it 'lil Veggie's Corner'!
Vegeta: Ugh! That sounds too cutsy! As ruler of this section of the room I am to be FEARED, not smothered
in mush and adoration!
Chuquita: (smirks) I agree with Son-San. 'Lil Veggie's Corner' has a certain 'ring' to it.
Goku: (blushes) Aww, thanks Chu-sama!
Vegeta: (glares at Chu) YOU'RE JUST AGREEING WITH HIM IN ORDER TO MAKE ME SUFFER!!!
Chuquita: (impishly) Maybe. (perks up) Buuuuuut, being a democratic organization; since you've been voted
out 2 to 1, Son-San & I win!
Goku: (squeals) YAY!
Lil Veggie's Corner:
Goku: [sitting at the desk w/Chu & Veggie] [draws a little heart over the i] (giggling) Heeheehee!
Vegeta: (pouty) Oh I hate you all. [folds his arms in contempt]
Chuquita: Oh calm down Veggie. You're still King; well, for this story anyway.
Vegeta: (aggrivated) And what are you still doing here! I thought you left me in charge to go on vacation!
Chuquita: [points to her pj's] I am.
Goku: (grins) Hey! Chu-chan's clothes look just like Veggie's!
Vegeta: (to Chu) [narrows his eyes] You're mocking me, aren't you?
Goku: (eagerly) Where'd you get them Chu-sama? I wanna pair of Veggie-clothes too!
Vegeta: [smacks Goku w/his scepter] NO YOU DON'T!!
Goku: [stops the scepter before it hits him] (giggles) Yes I do!
Chuquita: I don't think they'd have any in your size, Son. I ordered it out of Victoria's Secret.
Goku & Vegeta: ...
Goku: You didn't tell me you shop at Victoria's Secret, Veggie?
Vegeta: [thunks his head down upon the desk; little veins bulging on his head in anger] RRRRRRRRRR.....
Goku: (to Chu) Gosh, I always wondered where Veggie got all that spandex stuff before, and he IS little, but
I never suspected--
Vegeta: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGG!!!! [goes SSJ]
Chuquita: [trying to keep herself from bursting into laughter]
Vegeta: [leaps up at Goku & grabs him by the collar] YOU BIG BAKAYARO!! I HAVE NEVER SHOPPED AT A WOMAN'S
UNDERWEAR STORE BEFORE IN MY LIFE!!! [jumps down & grabs part of Chu's pajamas] SEE! THIS IS MADE OF COTTON
AND POLYESTER! NOT SPANDEX LIKE MY UNIFORM!!!
Chuquita: (smirks at Son) He's right, the spandex ones were WAY too expensive anyway. Nothing Veggie couldn't afford though!
Vegeta: [face turns a pale green]
Goku: [glances at Veggie & giggles at him]
Vegeta: This is sick and embarassing! (summons up his ego) AS RULER OF THIS CORNER I ORDER YOU PEASANTS TO START THE STORY
BEFORE OR FACE MY WRATH!!
Goku: (whispers) It's gotten pretty infected since the last time I saw it.
Vegeta: (gritting through his teeth) WRATH, not RASH, Kakarrot.
Goku: Oh.
Chuquita: (smiles at the camera) On with the show!
Summary: Veggie and Goku have a buddy spat and Goku decides its time to get himself a new little buddy. While taking back all
the presents Goku has given Veggie in the past he comes across Plushie. But on his way to show Bulma, accidently knocks into
her enlarging-ray which causes Plushie to become Veggie-sized. Goku dubs Plushie as his new little buddy which thoroughly
creeps out Vegeta further when Goku proceeds to treat his lost plush-toy as if it really was the ouji. When Vegeta's the
only one who notices Plushie starting to move around on his own, will anyone believe him?
Vegeta: "Plushie"...that's that little stuffed toy that 'supposedly' bears a resemblance to yours truely, isn't it?
Goku: (happily) Yes he is!
Chuquita: Only Plushie's cuter.
Vegeta: HE IS NOT! HE DOESN'T EVEN HAVE A NOSE FOR CRYING OUT LOUD! HE'S GOT BEADS FOR EYES!
Goku: (pats Veggie on the back) Ohhh, don't let it getcha down little buddy! I still think you're cute.
In a veggie-kinda-way.
Vegeta: OH SHUT UP!
*****************************************************************************************************************************
" I HATE YOU! "
" I HATE YOU MORE! "
" BAKAYARO! "
" MEANIE! "
Mirai poked his head around the corner and peered into the living room to see Goku & Vegeta snarling at each other,
" Uhh, you guys oh-kay? " he blinked. The two continued in their standoff.
" You have NO IDEA how wrong you are, do you Kakarrot? " Vegeta smirked at him.
" Actually, VEGETA, you're the one who's wrong. " Goku folded his arms & glared down at the prince.
" Ha, I doubt it. It's a shame your tiny little Kaka-brain is just too small for you to figure that out. " Vegeta
boasted.
" OH YEAH? WELL IF YOU'RE GONNA BE LIKE THAT THEN MAYBE YOU'RE NOT WORTHY OF BEING MY LITTLE BUDDY AFTER ALL! " Goku
screamed angrily.
Vegeta gasped in shock, " You wouldn't DARE! "
" I DARE! " Goku shouted back, " YOU ARE NOW OFFICALLY NO LONGER MY LITTLE BUDDY! THE END! GOODBYE " he stomped up
the stairs towards Vegeta's room.
" Hey! Where are you going! " Vegeta pointed at him.
" _I'M_ going to take back all the stuff I so stupidly gave you. " Goku said stubbornly as he went into the ouji's
bedroom & slammed the door shut behind him, leaving Vegeta standing there; an overwhelming look of loneliness engulfing his
face.
" What just happened here? " Chi-Chi said, walking up to Mirai.
" Son-San and Toussan just had a HUGE argument! " Mirai exclaimed.
" Really? About what? " Chi-Chi asked, interested.
" I don't know, but whatever it was it must have made Son pretty mad. He just FIRED Toussan. He's not even calling
him 'Veggie' anymore. " Mirai said, worried.
" You're kidding! " a large smile appeared on Chi-Chi's face, " You mean Goku's FINALLY realized how worthless that
idiot ouji is! WOW! " she clasped her hands together, " No more annoying little ouji trying to still my baby over to the dark
side! Somebody up there must be smiling down on me today. " she hugged Mirai, " I'm going to help him go pack. GOKU! "
Chi-Chi called out after him as she darted up the stairs.
Mirai ran over to Vegeta, " Toussan? Toussan are you alright? What were you two arguing about? "
::Oh no, what have I done! I've just severed every tie I have with Kakarrot! I'll never see him again and he hates me
forever and I've disgraced the title of which he so lovingly placed upon my now unworthy head!:: Panic spread throught the
ouji's brain.
" Toussan? " Mirai said with more consern.
" I'm fine, Mirai, just fine. " Vegeta snarled, " DO YOU HEAR THAT KAKARROT! YOUR PETTY ATTEMPTS TO THRUST MY SOUL
INTO ETERNAL SORROW AND WEEPINESS HAVE BEEN IN VAIN! " he shook his fist in the air, ::Oh no I did it again!:: he mentally
gulped, ::Hmmph, well, who needs a big baka like that hanging around anyway. Not _ME_:: " Come on Mirai, let's go get some
ice cream to celebrate my FREEDOM from Kakarrot's shackles of little buddiness. " he grabbed his keys and marched out of
Capsule Corp.
Mirai shrugged and followed him.
" And this, and this, and that, and this, " Goku continued to toss one object after another into the large garbage
bag Chi-Chi was holding.
" Well I have to say I'm VERY PROUD of you honey. " Chi-Chi beamed at him, " I always knew the day would come when
you would see Vegeta for what he REALLY is; a Kako-stealing creep! "
Goku paused, " Did you just say "Kako"?? " he raised an eyebrow at her.
Chi-Chi stared at him, shocked, " Oh my God, yes I did. " she shook her head, " Quick! Goku hurry and get the rest of
those 'gifts', I think the ouji-air in this room is starting to taint our brains! "
" There, I think I've got everything. " Goku nodded.
" Great! " Chi-Chi smiled, " I'll go take this out to the car. "
" I'll meet you in a minute. " Goku responded, " I wanna take one more look around to see if I missed anything. " he
said as Chi-Chi left. He oversaw the room for a couple minutes, which was now surprisingly almost bare, " Wow, I never knew
how much stuff I've given Veggi--Vegeta over the years. Gosh. " his eyes transfixed on two items sitting ontop of a bookcase.
Goku floated up to them to see it was a pair of two plush toys, one of him and another, more familiar one. Goku's eyes
widened, " PLUSHIE!!! " he squealed, grabbing the toy & squeezing it, " OH MY LITTLE PLU-CHAN! It's been forever hasn't it? "
he sniffled at the sight of his toy, which was now dusty from sitting on the bookcase for so long, " Vegg---HE must have been
the one who bought you after I left you back at the toystore! Oh I'm so happy to see you again! I missed you Plu-chan. " he
held the toy away from him. The small plush toy looked almost identical to Vegeta; wearing a saiyajin fighting uniform, white
boots, gloves, and a spiky black tuft of hair on its head. Two black, vertical, oval shaped beads stared back at Goku. A tiny
u-shaped smile on its face, " OHhhh! I gotta show this to Bulma! She'll flip! "
" HA! It's perfect! " Bulma stepped away from her invention, then patted a rather humongous strawberry, " I, Bulma
Briefs, beautiful world-famous genius, have just created an invention to stop world hunger! " she proudly surveyed the
several other englarged foods next to her, a cornflake, banana, chocolate-chip and orange, " Just this orange alone could
feed an entire South-American country for up to 5 months! "
" Meow. " Dr. Briefs small black cat stared up at her skeptically.
" OH WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING AT! " she snapped at him, " This invention is pure GENIUS! It's so simple to operate a
complete MORON could use it! "
" BULMA! LOOKIT THIS LOOKIT THIS! " Goku cried happily as he ran down the stairs and into her lab. The cat rolled its
eyes at the saiyajin's wonderful timing.
" GO-KUUU!! STOP! " Bulma shrieked as the saiyajin suddenly paused in mid-step.
" How's this? " Goku said, his one foot still in the air.
" Better. " Bulma sighed. Goku put his foot down and wandered over to her, " You could have destroyed my enlarging
ray. "
" ... " Goku stared at her blankly, " ...your whosit wha? "
" Enlarging Ray. It makes things bigger. " Bulma explained, " Say you were out of potato chips and all you had left
were crumbs. Well, " she placed some crumbs on the platform, then pressed a button which sent a beam onto the platform.
Instantly, 3 large jagged potato chips covered the platform, " Voliá! " Bulma handed Goku a potato chip, then ate on herself.
" OOOOOOOH! " Goku said in awe, " THAT'S AMAZING! "
" Come over here, I'll show you the other samples I've made. " Bulma said, walking off deeper into the lab. Goku
tossed Plushie over his shoulder & onto the platform, then skipped over to the giant foods across the room.
" You mean this used to be one of those tiny little chocolate chips they put in bags? " Goku patted the super-sized
chocolate chip.
" Now, what did you come down to tell me about? " Bulma said, changing the subject.
" ...OH! " Goku said, " You won't believe who I found in VEGETA'S room. " he held out the hand he was using to hold
Plushie.
" ...Goku that's just your hand. " Bulma said, confused.
" No it's not, silly. It's---AHH! PLUSHIE!! " Goku gasped at his now empty hands, " PLU-CHAN! " he noticed the
enlarging beam still; a Vegeta-sized object laying helplessly on the platform. Bulma quickly turned the machine off as they
both stared down at the object with their jaws hanging open.
" Oh, Goku, I, I'm sorry I-- "
" --AAH! " Goku grabbed the super-sized plush and squeezed it, " LITTLE PLU-CHAN LOOK HOW BIG YOU GOT! " he said
happily, " Why you're almost the size of my EX little buddy! "
" "Ex"??? " Bulma said, surprised.
" Umm-hmm. " Goku nodded, " We had a buddy-spat so I decided to get a divorce. " he said stiffly, then went back to
cuddling Plushie, " Isn't that right my lil-lil Plu-chan! Yes it is. Daddy doesn't like mean old Veggie-head anymore, no he
doesn't. " he cooed to the toy, " Hey Bulma, you have a bag big enough for Plushie here? I'm taking him back home. "
" Well?.... "
" Lalalalala, " Goku sang to himself as he made his way up the stairs and into the living room. Plushie was now in
a big black garbage bag swung over his shoulder.
" Hi Mr. Goten's Daddy! " Bura chirped happily as she walked by him.
" Hi Bura! " Goku said, also cheerful. Bura froze when she recognized what looked to her like a body bag over Goku's
shoulder.
" AHHH!!! MURDER!! " she cried.
" *BEEP* *BEEP*! " Chi-Chi impatiently honked the horn inside their car as Goku left Capsule Corp and headed towards
her.
" Hi Chi-chan! " he said, sitting down beside her, the bag on his lap, " Turns out I left Plushie back in Vegeta's
bedroom. " he patted the bag.
" Oh, alright. " Chi-Chi said, starting the car up. She did a double-take on the bag, " Goku, do you really think you
need THAT LARGE a bag for that little doll? From what I remember he isn't over a foot tall. "
" Not anymore! " Goku grinned.
Chi-Chi looked at him, confused, " ...right. "
" There we go. " Goku plopped the bag onto the couch and untied it, " We're home Plushie! "
Chi-Chi dropped the last package on the ground inside their home, " *whew*! " she wiped the sweat off her forehead,
then took one look at the object in Goku's bag and shrieked, " OH MY GOD! YOU KILLED VEGETA AND BROUGHT HIM HOME TO BURY HIM
OUT IN THE BACKYARD!!! "
Goku looked over his shoulder at her, stupified. He suddenly started laughing, " Silly Chi-chan! This isn't little
Veh---err, this isn't Vegeta. It's PLUSHIE! " he grabbed the stuffed toy & held it out infront of her, " He got himself
biggie-sized on Bulma's machine by accident. " he grinned, then hugged Plushie, " Plushie's so cute big! "
" ... "
" ... "
" Umm, Goku? " Chi-Chi said uneasily, " Don't you think it would be a little more, well, mentally healthy to change
Plushie back to his 'orignal' size? "
" Chi-chan thinks I'm stupid? " Goku's eyes filled with tears.
" NO! " Chi-Chi said suddenly, waving her hands in protest, " I meant, you see....oh. Goku, having a small stuffed
toy that you sleep with at night and play games with, that's healthy. But to have one, that LARGE and considering the fact
that you just major fight with Vegeta, don't you think that having Plushie that size might subconsiously be trying to tell
you something? Psychologicaly? "
Goku leaned Plushie towards his ear, " Uh huh...uh huh... " he listened as through the doll was whispering to him,
" Yes, Plushie says he would be HONORED to be my new little buddy! "
Chi-Chi sweatdropped.
" Chi-chan, Plushie wants to know if he can stay in the guest room, being that his little plushie-bed's now way too
small for him to sleep in. "
" Goku, he's not a guest. He's a TOY. " Chi-Chi said, aggriavted.
Goku gasped and covered Plushie's ears, " Bite your tongue! Plushie isn't just a toy! He's my little buddy and you
should treat him as such. " he put Plushie on his shoulders, piggyback style, " Come on, cowboy, let's go rangle you a guest
room! " he said in an obviously fake southern-accent.
Chi-Chi watched the scene and shook her head in disqust, " Either he actually believes Plushie is real, or he misses
that ouji more than I thought. "
" I'm so stuu-hooohoo-piiid! " Vegeta wailed as he buried his face in his crossed arms on the table. Mirai sat across
from him in the Ice Cream Shop.
" Don't worry Toussan, it'll be oh-kay. " Mirai laughed nervously as he patted Vegeta on the head.
" HOW! HOW IS IT OH-KAY!! " the ouji snapped, looking up at him, " I'll never be Kakarrotto-chan's little buddy ever
again! "
" But I thought you didn't like being his 'little buddy'? " Mirai scratched his head.
" OH SHUT UP!! " Vegeta screamed at him, then broke off into sobs again, " What am I gonna do! It's not fair! I'm his
prince! He's not allowed to hate me or fire me or say I'm not his little buddy anymore... "
" Well you WERE pretty mean to him the entire time I've known you. It's not like you didn't deserve it. After so many
times of being cruel to Son-San he WOULD eventually get sick of it and snap-- " Mirai froze to see Vegeta sending him
death-glares.
Vegeta sat back in his chair, rage now beginning to override whatever self-pity was left in his body, " I've got to
do something. I've been Kakarrot's little buddy for over 18 years now, MUCH longer than any of his other brain-dead baka
friends have ever held the title. He must be having trouble re-adjusting himself too. " he smirked.
" Actually, Toussan, Son bounces back pretty well from these situa--- "
Vegeta was glaring at him again.
" --tions. " Mirai finished.
" As I was saying, that big idiot is probably doing HIS fair share of wallowing in sadness as well. But if HE sees
that _I_ happen to be doing well with this situation he's libel to come crawling on his hands and knees begging for our
buddyship back. "
" But you're NOT doing well with this. You've been crying since we got in the car to drive up here-- "
" *glare* "
" --oh-kay I'll be quiet. "
Vegeta stood up, " Mirai, we're going home. "
" What? But I'm not finished with my ice-cream yet! "
" Take it with you. " Vegeta interupted him, " The faster we get home, the faster I can get to the phone when
Kakarrot calls up pleading for my return. " He walked outside and over to his car, then placed his hand on it, " Mirai, put
your hand on the car, I'm teleporting us back, it'll be quicker. "
Mirai did as he said, " Teleport? When did YOU learn how to tele-- " before Mirai could finish his sentence he found
himself, along with Vegeta and the car, now in the living room at Capsule Corp, " --port. "
" Vegeta what's the car doing in our house? " Bulma said, walking by them on her way back to the lab.
" Umm, the garage door wouldn't open so we decided to bring it in...through the...front...door. " Vegeta glanced at
the small door leading inside.
Bulma opened her mouth to respond, then just kept on walking, " I won't even bother. "
" Oh NO! This is terrible! " Goku gasped in fright.
" What? What's the matter? " Chi-Chi poked her head into the guest room.
" All of Plushie's little pajamas are too little fit him anymore! " Goku held up a small set of orange pj's, then
compared them to Plushie's now immense size.
" Now do you see why it would be better to change him back. " Chi-Chi said.
" Hmm, I wonder if they make plushie-clothes this size at the toystore... " Goku trailed off, then frowned, " They
don't, do they Chi-chan? "
" No Goku, they don't. " Chi-Chi said, annoyied.
Goku studied his toy's size, then perked up, " Hey! You know, Plushie isn't that big, but I bet he's big enough to
fit into some of-- "
" *DING DONG* *DING DONG*! " the doorbell rang obnoxiously. Vegeta angrily jumped off the couch and stomped over to
the front door.
" Fools! Don't they know I'm waiting for an important call from... " he flung open the door to see Goku staring down
at him, " ...Kakarrot. " he stubbornly folded his arms.
" Vegeta. " Goku said, acknowledging the ouji's existance.
" Here to beg your forgiveness? " Vegeta smirked.
" No. " Goku said bluntly, " Actually, I was wondering, " he put his hand behind his head & grinned sheepishly, " Do
you have an extra pair of pajamas I could borrow? "
" ACK! " Vegeta fell to the ground animé style. He got up, then looked the bigger saiyajin over, " Kakarrot, what do
you need a pair of my pajamas for? "
" Plushie. " Goku flung the stuffed toy out from behind his back & held him under his arm.
Vegeta stared at the doll, an eerie sick-to-my-stomach feeling engulfing him, " Uhhh, right. " he shifted uneasily,
" Didn't Plushie used to be, you know, " he put his hand down to about a foot off the ground, " This tall? "
" Yeah. " Goku answered, " But he accidently got himself biggie-sized and now none of his clothes will fit him.
That's why I thought he could borrow some of yours. "
Vegeta peered at Plushie, who's small, content little smile sent a tinge of jealousy into the ouji, " 'Plushie'. "
he said with disqust, " Fine, Kakarrot. I shall sacrifice a pair of my night-clothes to 'Plushie' here if it will get your
lothed presence as far away from me as possible. " he snarled, then returned with his blue striped pajamas in his arms and
handed them to Goku.
" Look Plushie! Now you have a pair of pj's to go beddy-bye in! " Goku cooed, cuddling Plushie, " Isn't that just
wonderful! Daddy told you he would come through for you and he did. " he grinned at Vegeta, " I'm Plushie's Da-dee! "
The ouji felt his bottom lip begin to wobble at the sight. He shook the feeling off, " I, guess you're pretty close
with the stuffed creature, aren't you? "
" Oh YES! " Goku nodded, " Plushie's my newest little buddy, arentcha little Plu-chan. " he said, waving Plushie's
rounded hand, " Mmm-hmm of course you are. " he squeezed the toy tighter. He heard something sniffle beneath him, then looked
down only to see Vegeta looked back at him angrily, " Vegeta? Are you oh-kay? "
" ERR! GET OUT! GET OUT OF MY HOUSE AND NEVER COME BACK! I DON'T WANT TO SEE YOUR STUPID KAKO-FACE EVER AGAIN! "
Vegeta pointed out the door.
" Hmmph. " Goku snorted at him, " Well don't think it's been a pleasure seeing you again either, VEGETA, cuz it
hasn't, ya meanie. " he said, then teleported off.
" Meanie? " Vegeta squeaked out. Mirai entered the room, beat.
" Wow, I thought I'd NEVER get that car through the laundry-room door. " he noticed Vegeta was now shaking again,
" Toussan? "
" I'VE BEEN REPLACED BY A DOLL!!!! "
" Aww, don't you look CUTE! " Goku admired Plushie in his new sleepwear. The doll was now heavy enough to stand
upright without falling down, " HEY CHI-CHI! COME SEE HOW CUTE LITTLE PLU-CHAN LOOKS! "
Chi-Chi walked into the room and practically gawked at Plushie, " Where did you get those pajamas??! "
" They're Vegeta's. I asked him if I could borrow a pair, seeing as he and Plushie are now nearly about the same
height. " he rubbed Plushie on the head, " So? How's he look? "
Chi-Chi stared at Plushie, " Well, at least he's not Vegeta, that's for sure. "
" Chi-chan will you go get Plushie some warm milk while I tuck him in, it's been a long time since he's been home,
hasn't it Plushie? " Goku hugged him, then picked up Plushie & set him down on the guest bed, " Now don't you worry Plu-chan,
those mean 'ol girls aren't gonna steal you again. " he said as he pulled the covers over Plushie, " Chi-chan and I will be
in the room right across the way so you won't have to worry your cute lil head about anything. And I'll leave the nightlight
on just in case for you, kay? " he smiled lovingly at the doll.
" Here's your milk, your highness. " Chi-Chi said sarcastically as she set the glass of milk on the counter next to
Plushie.
" Oh, Plushie can't drink that. " Goku said to her.
" What?! Why not! "
" Well, little Plu-chan sometimes has trouble with cups. " he held out Plushie's mitten-like hands, " He'd prefer if
you'd put it in a bottle for him. "
Chi-Chi stared at him in astonishment, " Let me get this straight, you, want me, to go poor warm milk in a BOTTLE for
your giant stuffed dolly to DRINK?! "
" Yes. " Goku said as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.
" THAT'S CRAZY!!! " she exclaimed, " IF YOU WANT TO TREAT THIS TOY LIKE YOUR BABY THEN _YOU_ GO GET HIM A BOTTLE! "
Chi-Chi left the room in a huff.
Goku hugged Plushie sympathetically, " Oh Plu-chan I'm sorry Chi-Chi was mean to you. Well I still love you and I'll
make sure you get some nice warm milk so you can get to sleep better. " he said, then got up, took the glass and left the
room, shutting the lights off on his way. He returned and sat the bottle next to Plushie, " Goodnight little Plu-chan. " Goku
said, waving to him as he reached for the doorknob. Plushie waved back & then closed his eyes. Goku did a double-take, only
to find Plushie's beads still open, " That's funny, I could've sworn you just---NAH! " he threw out the idea, then closed the
door behind him, " Sweet dreams little angel. "

END OF PART ONE!
Chuquita: Sponsored by Vegitoria's Secret! [tugs at her pj's]
Vegeta: (glaring at her) You think that's so funny, don't you?
Chuquita: Yes, yes I do.
Goku: I kinda missed Plushie.
Vegeta: I didn't.
Chuquita: That's only because you're jealous of him. You were jealous of him in the first fic and you're jealous of him now.
Vegeta: I AM _NOT_ JEALOUS OF THAT STUPID TOY!!!

Vegeta: Say, Chu, do I win this time around? Seeing as I lost pitifully in the last story.
Goku: (flatly) You KIDNAPPED me in the last story.
Vegeta: [raises his scepter to smack Goku over the head again] DID I ASK FOR YOU TO SPEAK KAKARROT!
Goku: ...yes?
Vegeta: WRONG ANSWER! [thrusts the scepter down, only to miss Goku by several inches] Doh!
Goku: Heeheehee.
Chuquita: Well, to tell the truth Vedge, I can't really let you know before I finish the story, it would spoil the whole--
