Ages-

Trunks: 14

Goten: 13

"Trunks I'm hungry!" Goten complained as he kicked his friends butt for the 30th time that day in Tekken 3.

"Your always hungry chibi." Trunks tossed his controller to the ground in defeat.

"But this time I'm really hungry." Goten jumped off the bed he was perched on and tackled his friend who had been sitting a few feet from him.

"Ok, ok we'll get something to eat now get off me!!"

Goten grinned happily as he complied with his best friends wishes. Hurriedly he rushed to the kitchen of Capsule Corps and started to search the cabinets.

"Trunks there's nothing to eat!!" he wailed when the purple haired boy finally joined him in the kitchen.

"What are you talking about? Mom went shopping earlier." He opened up a cabinet door to find nothing inside. He opened another, nothing. He ran to the fridge and yanked that open, nothing. Even the ice cubes where gone.

"How could this be?" he muttered then heard laughter coming from the living room. Peering into it he spotted the reason the food was gone.

"Goten I didn't know your dad was here."

"Huh?" his voice was muffled and he sounded preoccupied.

"Never mind." Trunks looked back into the kitchen and paled. His mother was going to kill him; it was completely destroyed from apparently Goten's second search for food.

"Hey look Trunks I found something, but I don't think its food." Goten said from his perch on one of the cabinets, which he fell off moments later.

"Ok so what cha got." He stepped over to Goten who was still lying on the floor and completely forgot about what his mother would do to him. The younger demi saiyan looked up at him with a goofy grin and held up a small blue and white box. Trunks took it out of his hand and read the red writing on it.

"Jell-o."

"Gel-oh?" Goten repeated.

"Um yeah, hey I know what this stuff is. Mom make's it for parties."

"Hey is that the red stuff that wiggles?"

"Yeah that's the stuff."

"Cool, I want some Trunks."

"Ok." Suddenly remembers the destroyed kitchen. "Um that's going to be a bit of a problem, the box says we need boiling water, but the stove is well…" Looks over at it. Goten got up and looked at it too. Lets just say there wasn't much of a stove anymore.

"Now what are we going to do I'm really hungry and I wanted some Gel-oh and I'm really hungry!!"

"Um… hey I got an idea!" Trunks rushed out of the room Goten on his heels. When they reached their destination Goten looked at him.

"Why are we in the laundry room?"

"Cause we're going to make Jell-o." Trunks said smugly.

"Um how are we going to do that in the laundry room?" At the moment he was seriously doubting his friends sanity.

"You'll see, now go get the other box's of Jell-o."

"Um ok." Hurries out of the room and grabs the 20 box's of Jell-o that were in the only cabinet that was still in one piece. He skipped back arms full.

"Got it! Hey Trunks I thought we were making Gel-oh not doing laundry." He said as he saw his best friend had turn on the washing machine, which was filling with water.

"We are making Jell-o." He said grabbing the boxes out of Goten's hands and dumped the pinkish reddish powder into the now full washing machine. He turned back to Goten who blinked stupidly at him.

"You see," he began to explain his idea to the younger boy. "During the first washing cycle the water gets hot to disinfect the clothes. See there's our boiling water. Then the water gets colder during the rinse cycle so there's the cold we need."

"Wow that's really smart."

"Well it wasn't much for a brilliant mind like mine." Trunks said arrogantly.

"Hey how are we going to refrigerate it?" Goten interupted reading the last step on one of the discarded boxes.

"Huh?" Trunks grabbed the box from him and read it. He had forgot about that and the refrigerator was in shambles thanks to Goten and a little help from himself.

"Darn I didn't think that far ahead."

"I guess your not that smart after all." Goten grinned then was smacked upside the head.

"Hmmm." Trunks paced back and forth head in hand as he searched his mind for the solution. Suddenly a light bulb went on over his head.

"Ahh! Goten turn off that light!" he said shielding his eyes from the brightness.

"Sorry about that. I thought it would help you with an idea." He grinned sheepishly his hand still on the switch.

"How?"

"Well it works in the cartoons." He shrugged.

"Goten that's the stupidest… wait I got it!"

"Told ya it works."

"Shut up!" Quickly Trunks ran out of the room. He came back 5 minutes later with some odd gadget thingy that looked sorta like a water pistol but had wires and circuitry all over it.

"What's that?" Goten ventured to ask.

"This is my mom's freeze gun." He held it up like it was some sort of trophy.

"Why does your mom have a freeze gun?"

"I don't know." Trunks shrugged. "Ok open the washing machine."

"But the cycle hasn't stopped. Ow!" He rubbed his once again smacked head.

"Baka if the cycle stops the water goes out meaning no Jell-o."

"Oh." He opened the washing machine.

"Ok, now all I have to do is reset the controls on the freeze gun so that it chills the Jell-o instead of freezing it." Starts to fiddle with the wiring.

10 minutes later

"Uh Trunks did you reset it yet?" Goten leaned against the dryer bored and still hungry.

"Keep your shirt on. This is a delicate procedure that only scientifically advanced minds like mine can perform."

Goten looked over at the freeze gun lazily his eye catching a red dial on its side. Stepping forward he noticed that it had two settings freeze or chill.

"Um Trunks?"

"Not now I'm busy." Is still fiddling with the wiring.

"But Trunks why don't you just turn the dial?"

"Huh?" Looks at the dial Goten's pointing to. "I knew that, I was just testing you." The younger demi saiyan sweat dropped.

"Ok Jell-o here we come!" Trunks turned the dial and aimed the gun at the inside of the washing machine.



AN- Will the Jell-o ever get completed? : Starts laughing: yeah right. Um will Bulma notice the destruction of her kitchen? What is Goku doing at Capsule Corps? Should I even bother finishing this? Find out next time on my stupid fic!

Warning: Please don't try to make Jell-o in a washing machine. To tell you the truth it won't work. After the first cycle the water empties then fresh water is added in the rinse cycle. But for the sake of my fic it works ok. : Grins:
