Quote of the Week: -from DuBZ
"You better be careful Supreme Kai or you might be out of a job." -Son Goku
Chuey's Corner:
Goku: (grins) THAAAT'S ME! [points up the the q.o.t.w]
Chuquita: (happily) Hello and welcome to our Halloween/Thanksgiving special! We've taken the liberty of decorating the
Corner in a Halloween theme.
Goku: Heehee, Halloweenie.
[red carpet rolls out of nowhere towards and then infront of the desk; both turn in to the direction it came from]
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) Speaking of Halloweenies..
[two random people enter w/horns]
Random People: *DO-DO-DOO-DOO _DOO_*!!!
Random 1: ALL HAIL HIS HIGHNESS! [both exit and a small figure enters wearing a crown & cape that are WAY too big for
him and a fancy foreign outfit]
Vegeta: (grins) GREETINGS, COMMONERS!
Goku: (happily) IT'S LITTLE VEGGIE! [teleports over to Veggie & hugs him] I _MISSED_ YOU LITTLE VEGGIE! (eagerly) So what are
you supposed to be? The KING of the saiyajins? (little giggle)
Vegeta: (snorts) NO. I'm SUPPOSED to be THE KING OF THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE!!! [waves his scepter in the air and almost hits Goku
in the head with it]
Goku: [narrowly ducks being hit] *whew*
Vegeta: And what exactly are YOU supposed to be?
Goku: (grins) I'm a scuba-diver! [wearing a full-body; w/exception of his head; diving suit, flippers, goggles, mouth-breath-
-thingy. Wearing oxygen on his back]
Chuquita: (glances at Son's tail, which is also covered by his scuba-suit) (sweatdrop) That's slightly disturbing.
Goku: What? My tail?
Vegeta: (gawks) You put your TAIL in that thing TOO!?
Goku: (giggles) Heehee [sways his scuba-suit-covered tail infront of Veggie] Can't let it get all wet and salty in the ocean
now, can I?
Vegeta: ...uhh, (watches Goku's tail, which seems surprisingly content covered in scuba-cloth) (shakes his head) KAKARROTTO
WE'RE A FULL TWO HOURS AWAY FROM THE NEAREST BODY OF WATER!!
Chuquita: Actually we're about 2 seconds from it. [points to the little drool puddle on the desk leftover from Veggie
earlier]
Vegeta: (looks down at the desk and sweatdrops) Uh, heh-heh.
Goku: Veggie so cute! [reaches out to hug him]
Vegeta: (shrieks) AHH! NO STOP!
Goku: [freezes, arms still holding outward, ready to grab Veggie] ...
Vegeta: ...
Goku: [wiggles his fingers] *giggle* Hee-hee.
Vegeta: (sweatdrop) If you think you're hugging me wearing nothing more than that stupid face-gear and that second layer of
SKIN then you're MAD!
Goku: (frowns) It's not THAT tight on me.
Chuquita: (no comment)
Goku: (perks up) Oh well! Doesn't matter, I'm changing costumes after each chapter of this story anyway!
Vegeta: (blinks) You are?
Goku: Well I couldn't decide on just ONE costume! SO I DECIDED TO WEAR THEM _ALL_!! (whispers to Veggie) In fact, you won't
believe this but I'm wearing one under my wet suit RIGHT NOW.
Vegeta: (squeaks out) (glowing bright red) Oh.
Chuquita: [pulls out her Big Book of Author Spells] I was thinking of getting into the halloween thing too, so-- [pulls
something out from behind her]
Goku: (grins) A tail!
Chuquita: Yup! I used the B.B.O.A.S and conjured one up just for Halloween. Course I didn't make myself saiyajin or anything
like that. Besides if I had that would make me another one of Veggie's minions anyway.
Vegeta: ALL HAIL ME! Oof! [crown tilts forward and covers his eyes]
Goku: (giggles at Veggie) Silly lil Veggie. He's so small-n-cute.
Chuquita: In his own way, of course. I'm only gonna keep the tail for this Corner. Next fic it's gone.
Goku: So it's only a rental.
Chuquita: Yah, pretty much.
Vegeta: [trying to pull his crown off] OOF! URG! YARG!!
Chuquita: Havin some trouble there?
Vegeta: [points in the opposite direction she's sitting in] YOU KEEP OUT OF THIS!!
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) Hel-lo, I'm over here.
Vegeta: ....oh. [turns to her] YOU KEEP OUT OF THIS!!
Chuquita: (sweatdrops again)
Goku: (bravely) _I_ will help little Veggie free his eyesight! [grabs the crown and gives a swift pull, sending Veggie flying
out of the crown and across the room] (sweatdrops) (grins cheesily and turns to the audiance) HUR-RAH!
Vegeta: [getting back up] Oww.
Chuquita: Speaking of eyesight, that's what today's fic is about.
Goku: (grins) Chi-chan's eyesight to be exact.
Chuquita: It's a Thanksgiving fic with all the trimmings.
Goku: But if Chi-chan can't see how's she going to cook the feast?
Chuquita: Shh, don't give away the plotline before I give the summary!
Summary: Chi-Chi interupts Goku and Veggie during the worst possible time of their sparring match and ends up in the direct
path of a solar flare. After a visit to Capsule Corp, Bulma is certain Chi-Chi has been permanently blinded. But is she
right? Chi-Chi hopes not because Vegeta is using every chance he gets to drive her further and further to the brink of
insanity? Will she lose her mind before she regains her vision? Find out!
Chuquita: Alright, NOW you can give away the plotline.
Goku: I can't, there's nothing left to give.
Vegeta: (smirks) ACTUALLY, I have a little bit of spoiler nugget I'd like to share with Kakarrotto--
Goku: (w/big sparkily eyes) (baby voice) Wealwy, widdle Veggie 'o mine?
Vegeta: (glowing bright red) Well, I, uhh, that is to say... [shakes the redness from his face] For starters, _I_ get to be
the one to--
*****************************************************************************************************************************
" Ahh, thanksgiving! One of the few times of the year when my importance to the group is NOTICED! " Chi-Chi grinned
as she continued to mix the batter in the bowl, " AND one of the only things that evil little Ouji cannot even BEGIN to match
me in! " she laughed evilly. Chi-Chi looked out the window and glared up at the two saiyajins sparring in the air just above
the house, then paused as a blast of ki rushed past her. She rolled her eyes and continued mixing the batter, unfazed.
" AH-HAHAHAHA! TAKE THAT, KAKARROTTO! " Vegeta laughed as he floated infront of the window, his back to Chi-Chi. She
snarled at the Ouji's presence, then walked over to where he was floating and sharply elbowed him in the spine. Vegeta yelped
and reached both his hands over his shoulders to grab his back in pain, unintentionally giving the larger saiyajin a chance
to attack.
" RRRA! " Goku shouted as he flew at the ouji and knocked him into the kitchen. Goku held tightly to Vegeta as he
skidded the smaller saiyajin across the floor like a skateboard until they slammed into the wall, Vegeta VERY dizzy, " Heehee
hee, gotcha little Veggie! "
" Uhhh..head... " Vegeta groaned, then was about to angrily scream his lungs out at Goku when he noticed a ticked off
Chi-Chi out of the corner of his eye. The ouji smirked.
" Veggie you oh-kay? " Goku said, worried.
" Oh Kakay I love it when you play rough with me. " Vegeta said in a mock-overdramatic tone.
Chi-Chi angrily grabbed a frying pan from the stovetop, " OOH! YOU EVIL LITTLE-- " she swung the frying pan only to
have Vegeta duck and instead hit Goku in the line of fire, " --*BONG*!! " Chi-Chi froze when she realized what had happened.
" Ahh, Chi-chan that HURT! " Goku whinced, rubbing his head, " Whadja go and do THAT for! " he pouted.
" Yeah "Chi-chan", why did you go and hit poor sweet Kakay like that. " the ouji said up and hugged the larger
saiyajin, patting him on the back comfortingly.
" I WAS AIMING FOR _YOU_ YOU EVIL SHORT LITTLE PSYCHOPATH!! " Chi-Chi screamed at Vegeta.
" Hear that Kaka-chan? Now Onna's calling your beloved little buddy BAD NAMES! " Vegeta fake-pouted.
" Yeah Chi-chan! What is wrong with you today! " Goku said defensively, hugging the ouji tightly, " Veggie didn't do
anything bad to you today...yet. "
Vegeta sweatdropped.
" Err....Goku just take your stupid fight with the Ouji outside! " she pointed to the window, " I'm trying to create
a culinary masterpiece in here and you're, you're in here sitting ontop of that, that THING! " she disgustingly motioned to
Vegeta, who only waved back at her while snickering to himself.
" Maybe Kakay LIKES sitting ontop of me, Onna. Ever think of THAT? " Vegeta smirked.
" OOOH, GET OUT NOW!!! " Chi-Chi screamed. Goku gulped and flew back out through the window. Vegeta frustratingly
sat up, then stuck his tongue out at Chi-Chi.
" Neh! "
" Out, Ouji. " she grinned evilly.
" Hmmph, " Vegeta said as he climbed out of the window, " Fine, be that way Onna. Stay here while I go off to spar
against Kakarrotto-chan. " he smirked, " You'd probably be safer in here anyway, considering what a CONTACT SPORT sparring
is. Especially between two saiyajins who are infinately stronger than a mere human such as yourself. " he shrugged, then
flew off, " SO LONG ONNA! _I_ have a peasant to catch... " he snickered.
Chi-Chi stood there, tense with anger. She narrowed her eyes in the direction the ouji had left in, grabbed a large
steel-plated wooden club from behind her, and silently stomped out after them.
" Did you THINK it was funny to drag my body through your kitchen floor like a sled, Kakarrotto! " Vegeta glared at
the larger saiyajin as he dodged a flurry of punches.
" Heeheehee, I thought you made a great sled, little Veggie. " Goku laughed, " You seemed like you kinda enjoyed it
too. "
" NO, Kakarrotto I did NOT enjoy it! " Vegeta cringed, then smirked, " It was merely a ploy to cause Onna suffering
for that kick to my back. "
" Chi-chan KICKED you! " Goku gasped, teleporting away at the last second as Vegeta slammed his hands down where the
larger saiyajin's head was, " That's HORRIBLE! Is she just in a "Veggie's evil" mood today or what? "
Vegeta spun his leg around, connecting with Goku's left side, " Onna's ALWAYS in a "Veggie's evil" mood. " he snorted
, then trapped Goku in a headlock after he and bent down to grab his now aching side, " Heh-heh-heh! "Gotcha", Kakarrotto. "
" Urg! " Goku grunted as he tried to pull himself out of the death-grip the ouji had around his neck, " Wow Veggie...
...that's...pretty tight... " the large saiyajin squeaked out.
" Thanks. " Vegeta grinned boastfully, " I bet if I squeezed hard enough I could pop your head off like a ripe melon!
Care to see me try? "
" Aww Veggie you wouldn't do that even if somebody ordered you to; not to me... " Goku giggled.
" I WOULD TOO! " the ouji snapped.
" Then go ahead and try it. " the larger saiyajin challanged him.
" Uhh... " Vegeta blinked, not knowing how to respond, " Well I..err...ARG!!! " he tightened his grip by a little
bit.
Meanwhile Goku had gotten used to the tight arm wrapped around his neck and began to look around aimlessly when he
spotted something that made him grin. Vegeta had accidentally pulled a little bit of his tank top with him revealing the
ouji's stomach along with a little belly button.
" Aww...heehee. " Goku smiled mischievously at the belly button while Vegeta continued his death-hold on Goku's neck,
" Hello Veggie's belly button. " he waved at it, then quickly glanced up at Vegeta, who was mentally struggling on how much
tighter he could squeeze the larger saiyajin's neck before he really did rupture something fatal. Goku turned back to the
belly button and held out his pointer finger, " Heehee, heehee, " he giggled, reaching towards and instantly pressing lightly
on Vegeta's belly button, " Beeeep! "
" ... " the ouji suddenly froze, glowing bright red. His grip automatically loosened on Goku and his arms fell to his
sides.
" YAY I'M FREE!! " Goku cheered, " I guess that was the right button to push, huh little Veggie? "
" ...MmmMMMmm... " Vegeta made a content noise, still glowing.
" Veh-GEE, can you hear me in there? " Goku cocked his head.
" Heh, Kah-keee... " the smaller saiyajin mumbled in a daze. Goku grinned and hugged him.
" I love it when Veggie glows on me. " he shook the ouji he was hugging back and forth, " Little Veggie what do you
think about when you're glowing? "
" ....MMMMMMMmmm... "
" ... " Goku blinked, then perked up, " Good enough for me! " he squeezed tighter.
" Stupid little Ouji, why's he gotta be up so high! " Chi-Chi grumbled as she hid behind several bushes, taking
practice swings with her club, " No matter, by the time I'm done knocking his sick Ouji brains out, he'll be too stupid to
remember HOW to fly in the first place. "
Goku looked over his shoulder, sensing her ki, " Veggie did you feel that? "
Chi-Chi yelped and quickly ducked behind a tree, still holding the club.
" Huh wah-wah? " Vegeta babbled on dreamily, a small trail of drool hanging out of the side of his mouth.
Goku let go of him, " VEH-GEE! "
" ?! " Vegeta did a double-take. He quickly shook the redness from his face, " HEY! WHAT HAPPENED!! " he demanded.
" I was trying to ask you if you felt anything just now. " Goku said.
" Other than you, no. " the ouji blushed lightly, then shook that away as well, " Why? "
" I dunno, it felt like something was creeping behind those bushes back there. " Goku said suspiciously.
" Eh, probably just a fox or a deer or one of those woodland creatures that live around here. " Vegeta shrugged it
off.
" Oh. Oh-kay. " Goku nodded, then powered up and teleported above Veggie. He sent a ki blast flying down at the ouji,
hurtling him into the ground below. Vegeta growled and threw the ball of ki off of himself.
" WHAT WAS THAT FOR! I NEVER TOLD YOU TO START UP AGAIN!!! " Vegeta yelled.
" YOU NEVER TOLD ME TO STOP! " Goku retorted.
" ... " Vegeta sweatdropped, " ...well, YOU SHOULD'VE WAITED ANYWAY!! " the ouji formed another ball of ki and got
into a familiar position, " BIG...BANG ATTACK!! " he screamed, sending the blast at Goku, who dodged it just in time. The
ouji started sending dozens of small ki blasts at the bigger saiyajin at once. Goku skillfully avoided them and then put each
of his hands to his forehead. Vegeta watched him curiously.
" SOLAR FLARE!!! "
" DIE OUJI!!! " a voice screamed from behind him. Vegeta spun around to see Chi-Chi leap out of the bushes with the
club over her head, " AARR!! "
" *FWWOOSHH!* " a gigantic blast of light burst forth from Goku's direction at them. Vegeta, who already had his back
now towards Goku, covered his eyes anyway. Chi-Chi looked at him in confusion, then up at the light and screamed in fright.
She fell to the ground, soon followed by her club. When the light cleared Vegeta finally opened his eyes again, only to see
an unconsious figure beside him.
" It's...Onna. " he blinked, then broke into a grin, " KAKAY KILLED ONNA!! "
" CHI-CHAN!!! " Goku cried out, flying down to them, " CHI-CHAN! CHI-CHAN WAKE UP!! " he shook her by the shoulders,
" Ohhh, Veggie she's out cold! "
" You sure she's not dead? "
" No! "
" We could bury her right here. "
" NO! VEGGIE CHI-CHAN IS ALIVE! " Goku exclaimed, embarassed.
" Are you SURE about that, Kakay? " Vegeta folded his arms.
" Yeah. " Goku said, then checked her heartbeat and found it to be completely normal, " Her heart's beating, and
she's breathing oh-kay...I guess she just fainted again. "
" Hai, that can happen when you go to attack a handsome saiyajin prince and get exposed to the his peasant's flashy
light attack. Whatever that was. " Vegeta boasted.
" Solar flare, Veggie. " Goku said, picking Chi-Chi up, " I learned it from Tenshinhan. "
" Ahh, the one with the third eye. " Vegeta said, pointing to the spot on his own forehead where the additional
eyeball would be. He paused as Goku walked back towards the house, " HEY! KAKAY! WHERE ARE YOU GOING!! WE'RE NOT DONE YET! "
" I have to go lay down Chi-chan. " Goku explained, " We just can't LEAVE here here unconsious in the middle of the
battlefield. "
" Yeah, maybe YOU can't. _I_ on the other hand... " Vegeta trailed off, then paused to see Goku was now all the way
at the back door to the house by now, " KAKARROTTO!! WAIT FOR ME!!! " he shouted, running after him.
" Ohhh, Veggie I'm starting to get worried. It's been an hour and she hasn't woken up yet! " Goku said as sat by the
couch he had layed Chi-Chi on. The larger saiyajin dabbed the icepack on her head while Vegeta sat in the kitchen eating the
cookie dough batter Chi-Chi had left on the table when she went out on her attempt clobber him.
" She'll wake up EVENTUALLY. " Vegeta said in disgust, " I mean I'm not surprised. That solar flare of yours was
meant for me, not Onna. So it was OBVIOUSLY too powerful for a normal HUMAN to take. " he snickered at Chi-Chi, " I give her
another hour. "
Goku turned back to Chi-Chi, " Oh Chi-chan I am so sorry! Please forgive me! " he nervously clasped his hands
together in a praying motion.
" Onna will probably blame it all on me anyway once she wakes up, Kakarrotto. " Vegeta scooped a spoonful of cookie
dough out of the large bowl and shoved it in his mouth, " Mmmm, good stuff. " he happily held out the bowl to Goku, " Try
some! "
" Aww thank you little Veggie that is so sweet of you! " Goku said, impressed as he grabbed a handful out of the
bowl and sucked it out of his hand. Vegeta sweatdropped.
" One more thing in this house that's been made unedible. " the ouji cringed at the now kaka-germed dough.
" Mmm, tastes just like Chi-chan's cookies! " Goku mused, then froze, " VEGGIE! WE CAN'T EAT THIS! THIS IS THE BATTER
FOR THE COOKIES CHI-CHAN IS MAKING FOR OUR ANNUAL THANKSGIVING FEAST! " he gasped, then mused dreamily, " Chi-chan bakes the
yummiest cookies on the entire planet!! " a trail of drool dribbled out of the side of Goku's mouth, thoughts of many many
cookies waiting to be eaten swirling around in his head.
" Hmmph. I can bake cookies TOO ya know. " Vegeta narrowed his eyes, snorting.
Goku stared at him blankly, then broke into a laugh, " Little Veggie don't be silly! You can't bake and cook goodies!
And even if you could they couldn't possibly compare to Chi-chan's! " he boasted.
" Hmm....Kakarrotto? If I COULD bake "goodies" that were superior to the Onna's, would you consider leaving this
backwoods hut of yours for a more CIVILIZED setting; say, Capsule Corp? " Vegeta posed his question eagerly.
" I don't think there IS any way to make pastries any better than Chi-chan's, Veggie. " Goku said skeptically,
" She's an expert at it. " he nodded, " I do not question the master of the baked goods! " Goku grinned widely.
" Ohhhh.... " a groan came from behind them.
" CHI-CHAN! " Goku squealed, spinning around to see Chi-Chi struggling to sit up, " YOU'RE OH-KAY! " he hugged her
tightly, " You had me so worried! For a little while there I thought Veggie was right about you being dead, but _I_ knew that
a solar flare couldn't bring you down that easy! " he sniffled, kissing her on the cheek. An agitated ouji sat in the corner,
his tail twitching violently. Vegeta glanced around the room, then stopped at the bowl the leftover cookie dough was in and
slapped it off the table and to the floor, causing a loud crash.
Chi-Chi's eyes flung open, " WHAT WAS THAT!! "
" Uhh, " Goku sweatdropped at the broken bowl behind him and a defiant-looking Vegeta, " Nothing Chi-chan. Veggie, he
uh, kinda knocked one of your bowls over.
" OUJI!!! " she screamed angrily, turning to the wall, " WAIT'LL I GET MY HANDS ON YOU I'LL WRING YOUR SICK LITTLE
OUJI NECK!!! "
Both saiyajin stared at her like she had lost her mind.
" Umm, Chi-Chi? Veggie's over there. " Goku said, pointing in the other direction, " You're yelling at the wall. "
" ... " Chi-Chi's face flushed, embarassed, " Well MAYBE if somebody turned the LIGHTS on in here I'd be ABLE to see
where that Ouji is so I CAN yell at him! "
Goku's face covered with worry while a look of intrigue began to creep on Vegeta's, " Buh, but Chi-chan, the lights
ARE on. "
Chi-Chi turned a pale white, " Say what? " she said bluntly.
" I don't think Onna can SEE us, Kakay. " Vegeta cocked his head and grinned mischievously. He gleefully hopped over
to where the couple was sitting and wandered around the couch, " Now Onna, I'm going to shine a VERY bright light infront of
you and I want you to tell me if you can see me. " he said, then blasted into ssj2. Chi-Chi shielded her eyes, then opened
them slightly, " Well? "
" Everything just got brighter. " she replied.
" But you cannot see any of my shape or form? Nor Kakarrotto's? " he asked.
" No. " Chi-Chi spat, " Goku! I'm sick of this stupid Ouji joke! Now turn the lights on RIGHT NOW or you're going to
STARVE the rest of the week locked up in your room! " she threatened him.
" CHI-CHAAAN! THE LIGHTS ARE ON!! " Goku panicked, " SEE! " he reached for the nearest light-switch and began to turn
it off and on, " OFF ON OFF ON! IT'S WORKING PERFECTLY!!! "
Chi-Chi gulped, beginning to seriously consider something was wrong. The brightness had increased and decreased as
Goku had flickered with the light-switch. However, nothing except the change in darkness and lightness was visible to her,
" Oh-kay...NOW I'm getting nervous. " her left bottom eyelid twitched. Unbeknownst to Chi-Chi Vegeta was currently floating
infront of her and making faces at her. Goku sweatdropped.
" VEH-GEE! Cut it out! "
" Why? It's not like Onna can SEE us anyway. " Vegeta folded his arms stubbornly.
" See you? What's he doing to you Goku! TELL ME! " Chi-Chi demanded.
" Oh KAKAY your hair is SOOOOOOooooOOOOooo SOFT and BEAUTIFUL to run my hands through! " the ouji exclaimed in a mock
over-dramatic voice. Goku looked at him oddly; the ouji was still floating a good foot away from him and his hands weren't
anywhere near the larger saiyajin.
" ERRR, ARRRG!! " Chi-Chi lashed out at Vegeta, not only completely missing him by a full 3 feet but also forgeting
she was on the couch and causing her to fall onto the ground painfully.
" HAHAHAHAHA! " Vegeta laughed, " THIS is going to be fun. "
" VEGGIE! Leave Chi-chan alone! " Goku exclaimed, helping Chi-Chi up, " You still have your lil Veggie-vision. But
Chi-chan might be blinded for LIFE!! "
" Li, li, LIFE?! " Chi-Chi froze, her jaw hanging open in shock. She quickly shook it off, " OHHHHH NO! No no no no
no! I can't do that. I can't go around for the rest of my life without being able to SEE! If I can't see I won't be able to
stop that evil little Ouji from trying to steal you away because I won't know where to look for you and it would be pointless
to even TRY to look because I won't be able to see you!!! "
" Forget seeing Kakarrotto, you can't "see" ANYTHING. " Vegeta shrugged.
" YOU SHUDDUP, OUJI! " Chi-Chi growled at him.
Vegeta sighed, " I'm over HERE, Onna. "
She cringed angrily, " I KNOW THAT!!! " she screamed in a new direction, which, sadly, was still the incorrect
direction Vegeta was floating in.
" Onna can't sense ki very well, can she, Kakarrotto? " he asked the larger saiyajin.
" No... " Goku shook his head, then shrieked suddenly, " AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! "
Vegeta turned to him, " Kakarrotto? "
" LITTLE VEGGIE IF CHI-CHAN CAN'T SEE HOW'S SHE GONNA COOK THANKSGIVING DINNER FOR EVERYBODY! EVEN WORSE--HOW'S SHE
GONNA COOK FOOD FOR _ME_? " Goku yelped, squeezing the smaller saiyajin tightly against him, " Little buddy of mine I am too
used to eating yummy cooked goodness to go back to hunting down and roasting forest animals by myself! "
" Heh-heh, yeahhhh... " Vegeta grinned, glowing bright red.
" Don't worry Go-chan, I'm sure this is only temporary. " Chi-Chi said, trying to calm him down. She walked towards
the direction of Goku's sniffling, " Why I bet if we go back to Bulma's she'll tell you the same thing. Who knows--she might
even have a way to get my vision back to normal even faster. " she patted him on the shoulder, or what she thought was his
shoulder but turned out to be his arm, " And if it takes a little longer to return then I can just instruct you and you can
make the dinner for me. Like my assistant. "
" You mean I get to be Chi-chan's food-making aa-sistant? " Goku said w/big sparkily eyes.
" *YEOW*! "
Goku turned his attention downwards to see Vegeta shaking his hand in pain, " Kaka-chan, your little Veggie cut his
lil finger? Will you take a look at it and make it all better? " the ouji fake-pouted.
" Veggie cut his finger? " Goku's eyes widened as he took one of Vegeta's gloves off and looked the hand over, " Oh,
where is it? Is it oh-kay? Oh my poor little Veggie! " the larger saiyajin carefully searched the ouji's hand for the cut,
" Does it hurt much? " he rubbed Vegeta on the head to comfort the little ouji while he checked.
::Here I am--BLIND--and Goku's busy babying the Ouji over a nonexistent papercut!!:: Chi-Chi thought to herself,
" GOKU CUT THAT OUT!! HE'S LYING HE HAS NO INJURY!! "
" How would you know, YOU can't see my little Veggie's PAIN! " Goku retorted.
" Yeah Onna. Kakay FEELS for me. " Vegeta boasted.
" OOH! GOKU! I'M TEMPORARILY BLIND! VEGETA HAS A PAPERCUT! WHO DO YOU THINK IS MORE IN NEED OF YOUR SERVICES!!! "
Chi-Chi screamed.
Vegeta smirked at her, then turned back to the bigger saiyajin, " Kakay-chan will you smooch your lil buddy's hand
and make it all better? " he said in a baby-voice.
" Aww, sure little Veh-- "
" --YOU DO AND I'LL SKIN YOU ALIVE!!! "
Goku felt all the blood rush out of his face as he froze at the frighteningly rageful tone of Chi-Chi's voice.
" Yes Chi-chan. " he nodded politely, sweat dripping down his face.
" NOW....direct me to the door, you've got to drive me over to Bulma's so she can fix my eyes for me! " Chi-Chi said
nicely. Goku nearly fell over.
" Yes Chi-chan. " Goku repeated, then ever-so-gently set the ouji in his arms down on the floor.
" WHAT'S TAKING SO LONG!!! "
" Kakay was just making sure he set me down as comfortably as possible, Onna. Hope you don't mind; being that with
you unable to see, Kakay's going to need someone else to fulfil some of your, *a-hem* jobs when it comes to his PERSONAL
_NEEDS_. " Vegeta grinned evilly, patting Goku's hand. The larger saiyajin gave him a little smile.
" OH I'LL GIVE _YOU_ "PERSONAL NEEDS" YOU EVIL LITTLE MONSTER!!! " Chi-Chi stomped forward, vaguely following the
sound of Vegeta's voice.
" AWWW, KAKAY _THANK YOU_! My royal hand feels SO MUCH BETTER now. " the ouji giggled embarassingly.
" But I didn't DO anyth-- " Goku said confused until Vegeta slapped his hand over the larger saiyajin's mouth and
made a shh-ing motion with his finger. Goku sweatdropped, " Veggie this isn't very nice. " he pouted.
" SHH! " Vegeta said louder, then walked up to Chi-Chi, " Wanna know WHERE ELSE Kakay smooched me? " he grinned
evily.
" BUT I DIDN'T "SMOOCH" ANYTHING!! " Goku exclaimed, his cheeks hot pink with embarassment. He clutched them with his
hands in an attempt to make them fade.
" Kakay you don't have to be in denial! It's not like Onna can see us anyway, not NOW. " Vegeta said mockingly.
" VEH-GEE-EEE!! " Goku backed up and turned around to keep the others from seeing the pink glow seeping into his
face, " DON'T LIE TO CHI-CHAN WHEN SHE'S UNABLE TO SEE YOU!!! "
" Heh, that was a pretty vague statement, don't you think? " Vegeta smirked, asking Chi-Chi, who narrowed her eyes at
him, grabbed Vegeta by the collar, and repeatedly smacked him across the face.
" HAH HAH HAH HAH HAH HAH! " she then lefted her knee and kicked him in the croch. The ouji yelped and fell to his
knees. Chi-Chi grabbed Goku's wrist and dragged him off in the direction of the front door.
" GOKU! BULMA'S! NOW! "
" Yes Chi-chan. " he gulped, then looked over his shoulder at the fallen prince, " But shouldn't we go help little
Veggie first? "
" FORGET "LITTLE VEGGIE", WE HAVE MORE IMPORTANT THINGS TO WORRY ABOUT!! " Chi-Chi hissed.
" MORE IMPORTANT than my little Veggie? " Goku looked on in awe.
Chi-Chi growled, " Goku--I'M BLIND!! "
" Oh yeah. " he grinned cheesily, remembering.
" HONESTLY! You can remember what that Ouji had for breakfast but you can't remember that I've become BLIND as of
several HOURS ago! "
" Chi-chan, wall. "
" You'd think the fact that me losing one of my senses would have ANY EFFECT on your brain--but NOOOOoooOOOOooo, not
you, Goku. "I'm sorry Chi-chan, I forgot you were blind because I was busy making sure 'little Veggie'-- " she ended in a
mock-disgust tone, " "was comfortable." SHEESH! Where ARE your priorities set ANYWAY! "
" Chi-chan, WALL. "
" *THUMP*! "
Goku cringed to see his wife had just missed the front door by mere inches. Chi-Chi twitched in pain and backed up.
" Wall. " she repeated, trying her best to stay dignified. Goku took her by the hand and led her out to the car. He
sat her in the backseat.
Goku spoke up, conserned, " Chi-chan you wait here oh-kay, I'm gonna go get-- " Goku froze in surprise to see Vegeta
already strapped in the front passangers seat and grinning at him. The ouji happily patted the driver's seat, " --wow. You're
a fast lil ouji aren'tcha Veggie? " Goku smiled, impressed.
" I can go ANY speed you want, Kaka-chan. " Vegeta smirked.
" OUT OUJI! " Chi-Chi screamed, pointing in the direction of the car door.
" We might as well let my little Veggie ride with us, Chi-chan. He DOES live at Capsule Corp and since we're all
going to the same place we should give him a lift. " Goku explained.
" Hear that Onna, Kakay wants to give me a "lift". " Vegeta snickered at her. Chi-Chi growled as Vegeta sat back in
his seat, " Kakarrotto is going to make such a fine servant-maid one day... " he mused.
" Heee, you mean "princess". " Goku grinned widely, correcting him.
A vein bulged on the ouji's forehead, " NO, I mean SERVANT-MAID. "
" Prin-cess. " Goku said in a sing-song voice. Vegeta grumbled, shut his eyes and folded his arms. His face glowing
bright red, " "Princess Kakay". Hee-hee, that's gonna be FUN! "
" You're NOT going to be my "princess", Kakarrotto. " the ouji growled aggitatedly as Goku started up the car, " You
would be the saiyajin no oujo over MY dead body! "
" Not to mention MINE. " Chi-Chi agreed.
" THAT can be arranged. " Vegeta rubbed his hands together menacingly.
" GOKU! THE OUJI'S THREATENING ME WITH MY LIFE!! "
" Aww, Chi-chan. Veggie doesn't threaten people. Not anymore. " Goku smiled, turning towards the ouji, " Veggie's a
good boy now, right Veggie? "
" Yes, Veggie IS a "good boy" now. " Vegeta responded, snickering, " Say Kakay? Can your "good boy" sit on your lap
for the ride up? "
Goku laughed, " If little Veggie can fit I don't see why no--t. " he blinked in surprise to see Vegeta now sitting
on his lap comfortably, " HOW DO YOU DO THAT! "
" Do what? "
" _I_ DIDN'T EVEN SEE YOU MOVE FROM OVER THERE TO OVER HERE! " Goku gawked, " AND YOU WERE EVEN BELTED IN!! " he
turned to the passager's seat to find the seatbelt was still belted together, " But how could you-- " Goku felt a creepy
aurora around him and shivered, then turned back to Vegeta and shrieked, " AHH!! " somehow Vegeta had reached and plugged in
the seatbelt around the two of them, " Oh-kay, Veggie? This is getting creepy. "
" What's getting creepy Kaka-chan? " Vegeta asked innocently.
" Veggie how did you move around so fast without teleporting? " Goku felt a nervous sweat drip down his face.
" It's my little secret. " the ouji grinned, then whispered, " And maybe if you keep real quiet on the way to Bulma's
I'll tell you when we get there. "
" OOoh. Veggie's gonna show me his new secret trick! " Goku giggled with excitement, " I CAN'T WAIT!! "
Vegeta looked over his shoulder at Chi-Chi, who was currently deep in thought, " Hey Onna, guess where I am? " he
grinned anxiously.
" I'd rather not. " she spat.
" I'm on Kakay's lap! "
Chi-Chi's eyes shot wide open, " YOU'RE WHERE!? "
" Veggie's been a good boy so I'm letting him ride on my lap on the way up like he asked. " Goku cheerfully
explained, " And when we get there Veggie's gonna show me his new teleportation ability. It's like instant transmission, only
you can't sense it! " he giggled.
" I can't WAIT till we hit some BUMPS in the road. " Vegeta grinned evilly. Chi-Chi froze, a large sweatdrop on the
side of her head.
" Goku, you get him off your lap RIGHT NOW! " Chi-Chi warned, her voice slightly shakey.
" Silly Chi-chan, there's nothing to worry about. Besides, Veggie can even help me steer the car, can'tcha little
buddy? " he said to the smaller saiyajin, who placed his hands on the bottom of the steering wheel, " Awww, Veggie's trying
to drive too. That's so cute! " Goku squealed.
" Heh-heh-heh. " Vegeta chuckled to himself, then smirked, " Bump. "
" Bump? " Goku looked up to see several bumps in the road.
" *BA-DUMP-BUH-BUMP-BUH-BUMP*!! " the car bounced over the bumps and then suddenly screeched to a halt.
" What happened now? What is it! " Chi-Chi demanded, looking around..well, making the motion with her head anyway.
Two twitching, freaked out saiyajins sat on the drivers seat with blank looks on their faces. Vegeta's face was
glowing bright red and Goku's a bright pink. Goku emotionlessly clicked the car-door open, stood up, and carrying Vegeta out
and around to the passanger's seat where he plunked the ouji down and strapped him in, then walked back over to the driver's
seat and sat down. He desperately tried to shake off the glow from his face, " Remind me never to do that ever again. " his
voice sounded shakey. Goku turned the car back on and reached to grab the shift only to see a small white glove shift it into
drive first. All color instantly drained out of Goku's face as he looked behind himself to see Vegeta was now sitting beneath
him, waving cheesily, " AHHHH!! VEGGIE STOP THAT!!!! " he cried out, pulling Vegeta out from under him, re-dragging him over
to the passanger's side, and strapping him in, " I don't know how you did that just now but I KNOW you did it. " Goku shook
his finger at the ouji, then hopped over him and sat in the driver's seat, " Now Veggie don't you do that again or you will
be walking home to Bulma's...or flying...or traveling whatever way it is little Veggies travel by. "
" "Little Veggies" have many modes of transportation. " Vegeta said sneakily.
" ....uh, right. " Goku felt uneasily, " Oh well, off we go! "
Vegeta smirked, " Yes, off we go indeed. "
::It's been quiet. Awfully quiet. TOO quiet:: Chi-Chi thought to herself. She gulped. The trio had been driving for
over an hour and she had yet to hear a peep between the two saiyajins, " Go-chan? "
" ... "
" Ouji? "
" ... "
Chi-Chi shivered, " Come on Goku, this isn't funny! "
" SHH! " a voice came from infront of her.
" Go-chan? " she blinked.
" Chi-chan be quiet. Little Veggie is sleeping and I don't wanna wake him up till we get to his house. " Goku
whispered.
Chi-Chi smiled brightly, " You mean that evil little creep's been asleep this whole time? "
Goku turned to his right to see Vegeta sitting back in his chair with his head tilted up and a trail of drool
dribbling out of the side of his mouth, " Yup! Veggie's snoozin and a'cruisin. " Goku grinned at him, " I guess some people
just get lulled to sleep on long car rides. "
" Thank GOD! " Chi-Chi wiped her forehead in relief and sat back, " You both had me so worried. Not being able to see
makes what you see in your imagination seem so much worse. " she groaned.
" Well you're lucky, you're not the one who had to watch Veggie's creepy disappearing-reappearing act! " Goku
shivered, " I would put little Veggie in one place and he would instantly appear in another! Without even having to
teleport! " he exclaimed.
" THAT'S because the Ouji is evil incarnate! DEMONS like him can DO that sort of thing. " Chi-Chi snorted, folding
her arms.
Goku laughed at her, " Chi-chan what are you talking about? Little Veggie isn't evil. And he's NOT a demon. He's just
a silly lil ouji with magical powers! "
" When you say it THAT way it makes him sound like an angel or something. " Chi-Chi grumbled.
" He is. " Goku said happily, " A kooky little angel Veggie. "
" Yeah right. " she muttered with sarcasm.
" Well maybe if you didn't hate my little buddy so much maybe you wouldn't have tried to attack him and gotten blind
and then you'd still be in the kitchen making those yummy cookies for all of us. " Goku said as-a-matter-of-factly.
" ... " Chi-Chi paused, " HA! SEE! IT _IS_ ALL THE OUJI'S FAULT! HE'S PURE EVIL I TELL YOU! EVIL!! " she screamed,
pointing in Vegeta's direction.
" Huh? " Vegeta lazily opened his eyes halfway, paritally waking up, " Whe am I? " he mumbled.
" You're home! " Goku chirped. The ouji turned to his left and smiled.
" Why hello Kakarrotto, *yawn* what are you doing here? "
" Veggie is still tired. " Goku nodded, then patted Vegeta on the head, " Little Veggie you can wait in the car while
I take Chi-chan inside to see if Bulma can help her get unblind, oh-kay? " the larger saiyajin got out of the car, then
helped Chi-Chi out and led her inside Capsule Corp.
" NEH! " Chi-Chi blew a raspberry at the ouji, then happily clung to Goku's arm as they walked out of view.
" 'wonder what that was all about? " Vegeta said sleepily, then bolted to attention, " KAKAY! ONNA! THE BLINDNESS! "
everything that had recently happened instantly re-appeared in his brain, " Oh crap! How long was I asleep for! " he growled,
getting out of the car, " I just ruined about 2 perfectly good hours of driving Onna off the deep-end! NOW what am I gonna
do? " he rubbed his chin as he walked around to the trunk and leaned against it, " Hmm... " Vegeta paused, then opened the
trunk, " I wonder.... " a grin appeared on his face when he saw an extra gi outfit sitting in the corner of the trunk along
with extra boots, boxers, and those little blue wrist thingys. The ouji grinned evilly and looked upward, " Thank you Kakay."
" So, what do you think? Is Chi-chan gonna get better soon? " Goku asked Bulma and Dr. Briefs. Chi-Chi was sitting on
a chair in the lab.
" I'm not sure yet, we'll have to take a retina scan first to see how bad the damage is. " Dr. Briefs said, holding
up a small machine infront of Chi-Chi's eyes and pressing several buttons on it.
" You're saying Chi-Chi got this way from a solar flare attack? " Bulma stared at Goku in surprise, " Why did you
attack her? "
" I _DIDN'T_ attack her! " Goku exclaimed, embarassed, " I was attacking Veggie when Chi-chan came up from behind the
bushes with her club and tried to knock Veggie's head off with it. While I was launching the attack Veggie had turned around
because he heard Chi-Chi scream at him. Veggie blocked his eyes with his hands but Chi-chan looked up directly into the light
and fainted. " he said sadly, then sighed, " She woke up this way a couple hours later. " he looked down at her w/big sorry
eyes, " Will Chi-chan be better soon, Bulma? "
" SOON?! I don't know if EVER would even be a possibility! GOKU SHE WAS HIT BY AN ATTACK THAT WAS _MEANT_ FOR VEGETA!
DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW MUCH STRONGER HE IS THAN HER!!! "
" Don't rub it in. " Chi-Chi grumbled, folding her arms while Dr. Briefs continued to work the retina machine.
" ANY NORMAL HUMAN WOULD BE INSTANTLY KILLED BY ANYTHING YOU WOULD THROW AT HIM! I have no idea exactly HOW powerful
the taiyo-ken you used on them was but...Goku you may have blinded her for LIFE! " Bulma gasped.
It was at that point that Goku's eyes widened to a point where they took up half his head and his skin turned a pale
green. Chi-Chi fell over and nearly fainted.
" Wha--wha-wha--WHAT?! " Chi-Chi shrieked, standing up in a woozily position, " GOKU ARE YOU NUTS! BULMA I CAN'T BE
BLIND FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE, I JUST CAN'T! THAT ISN'T POSSIBLE! IF I CAN'T SEE HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO PROTECT MY BABY FROM
THAT EVIL MANIPULATING OUJI!!! "
" For YOUR information that "evil manipulating Ouji" is my husband and second of all dad and I will process the scans
he took of your eyes and we'll see if the damage is reversible or if it will be able to heal on its own. In the meantime, go
lye down somewhere, you'll feel better. " Bulma said with a tint of aggrivation in her voice, " You can find the living room
cough, right? "
" Of course I can! I've been here enough times that it'll be no problem at all! " Chi-Chi boasted, then headed up the
stairs. Goku was about to follow her when Bulma grabbed him by the sleeve.
" Son-kun, can we talk to you for a moment. " Bulma said, concerned.
" Sure! " Goku said cheerfully, " What do wanna know? "
" Umm, Goku....I don't know how to say this, but, " Bulma gave a pleading look over to Dr. Briefs, who got the
message.
" Oh! " he took the scans over to them, " Goku-san, I'd like to show you something. " he took a photograph out of his
pocket, " This is a picture of a normal retina. And this is of a person with 400/400 vision. That's the equivalent of someone
who's blind. This third one is of Chi-Chi's. " Dr. Briefs held up one of the scans he had taken which looked identical to the
latter of the first two.
Goku stared at the pictures for a minute, then looked at him sadly, " You're trying to say I made Chi-chan blind? "
he sniffled.
" Well, not in so many words. " Dr. Briefs replied, " She's not what you would label completely blind, but her vision
has most certainly been damaged beyond repair. In fact I'm surprise her eyeballs weren't liquified after that attack. " he
chuckled lightly, then stopped when he saw the completely devastated expression on Goku's face, " ...oh, I'm sorry my boy.
Just trying to make light of the seemingly dim situation you know. "
" ... " Goku's eyes instantly filled with tears, " What am I gonna tell Chi-chan? " he said helplessly.
" There's not much TO tell her. " Dr. Briefs scratched his head, " Tell her she's permanently blinded and you're
sorry for the whole accident. "
" Dad, that REALLY doesn't help. " Bulma sweatdropped, " Chi-Chi's not the most STABLE person alive, temperment-wise
if you know what I mean. "
" Should I tell her now? " Goku asked, choked up.
" No, better to wait till after she gets her nap. Less painful that way. " Dr. Briefs nodded, " I mean, I think she
should at least be allowed to have a false hope for another 20 minutes or so. " he looked down at his watch.
Bulma sighed, " Please stop while you're ahead, dad. "
" What? What did I say? " Dr. Briefs looked at her, confused.
She groaned, " Nevermind. "
" Stupid Ouji. It's all his fault I'm in this mess! " Chi-Chi grumbled as she tried to get to sleep on the living
room couch. Meanwhile a small figure wearing a gi that was WAY too big for him proudly entered the room in a boastful march,
" If he didn't decide to come 'sparring' against my Go-chan this NEVER would have happened. "
" AhhHHHHHHHHHhhhhHHHHhhhhh! " a pleased moan came from a foot away from her. Vegeta stretched his arms, then sighed
in relief, " Well, THAT felt good. "
" Ouji. " she glared in his general direction.
" Onna. "
Chi-Chi sniffed the air, " Goku? " she cocked her head, " Is he in here with you, Ouji? " she said bitterly.
" Oh-ho-ho WAS Kakay with me. " Vegeta proclaimed overdramatically.
" And what's THAT supposed to mean? " Chi-Chi sat up and folded her arms.
" You know, Onna. They say when a person loses one of their senses the other 4 increase in their abilities by a
substantial margin! " Vegeta smirked.
" Is, Goku, in, this, room. Ouji. " Chi-Chi said bluntly.
" Nope. Only little 'ol me. " Vegeta grinned proudly.
" Good for you. " she snorted, " If he's not here then why can I smell him? "
" Oh that's just me, Onna. Here, take a whiff. " he held out his arm. Chi-Chi stared ahead, then took a deep breath
and nearly choked.
" *HACK*HACK* Dear GOD! *HACK* it's like some PUTRID combination of you AND Goku! " Chi-Chi gagged in disgust, " What
were you DOING to him! You smell worse than that sick fusion creature of yours! "
" You mean Vejitto. " the ouji smirked.
" I'm NOT going to say that word. " she snuffed at the name.
" You don't have to. " Vegeta said calmly, then took a whiff of his gi shirt, " Ahh! I have to say I smell heavenly!"
he bent down to the height Chi-Chi was sitting at and grinned wickedly, " Wanna know what caused me to currently smell like
this? It's has to do with my Kakay-chan. "
" HUF! _YOUR_ "Kakay-chan". Give me a break! " Chi-Chi layed back down and faced the back of the couch.
" ... " Vegeta folded his arms, " ...he loved it. "
She rolled her eyes, " HA! " Chi-Chi gave a disbelieving mock-laugh. A long pause occured and she began to feel very
uneasy.
Vegeta leisurely looked up at the clock on the wall, then leaned to whisper into her ear, " ....I was on top. " might
very well have been the last four words the ouji spoke for Chi-Chi instantly bolted up, thrust her hands around his neck and
tacked Vegeta to the floor. She then began to violently repeatedly smack his head onto the floor while cursing up a storm,
" --AND I'LL RIP EVERY LAST ORGAN OUT OF YOUR BODY AND FEED IT TO THE RATS YOU EVIL OUJI HOW DARE YOU WALK AROUND IN HIS
CLOTHES LIKE YOU OWN THEM I'LL YANK YOUR EYES OUT OF THEIR SOCKETS AND MAKE _YOU_ BLIND FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE TOO! "
" ...but I'm not really sure if it's right to tell her so early and-- " Goku trailed off as he, Bulma, and Mr. Briefs
walked up the stairs and into the living room. All three gawked in shock to see Chi-Chi literally beating Vegeta's head into
the ground, " VEGGIE!!! " Goku shrieked in terror.
Chi-Chi froze and turned in the direction of the sound, " Go--but, if you're just coming out from down there, then
where did he get, any where was he, buh, how--- " her face turned red with embarassment. She turned back to Vegeta and glared
, " YOU TRICKED ME YOU CREEP! YOU USED MY TEMPORARY BLINDNESS AGAINST ME AND MADE ME THINK YOU TOOK ADVANTAGE OF MY GO-CHAN
WHILE I WAS NAPPING HERE!!! "
" Oww... " Vegeta twitched in pain.
" LITTLE VEGGIE! " Goku ran over to them and pulled Vegeta out from under Chi-Chi, " Oh my poor little buddy! " he
exclaimed in fright as he hugged Vegeta tightly, " Are you alright? Does it hurt bad? I'm SO SORRY I left you all alone in
the car! What was I thinking? I should've been a more responsible big buddy and carried you inside with me! " Goku snuggled
the little ouji closer.
" Heh-heh-hehhhhhh... " Vegeta's face glowed bright red as he let out a dazed chuckle.
" That's my Veggie, let it all out. " the larger saiyajin said, trying to comfort him.
" WILL YOU STOP THAT!! " Chi-Chi screamed, pointing to the kitchen. Goku sweatdropped.
" Chi, over here. "
" ...RIGHT! " she pointed at him, " WILL YOU STOP THAT! HAVE YOU EVER CLOSED YOUR EYES AND LISTENED TO YOURSELF TALK
TO THAT OUJI!! DEAR LORD, IS IT SICKENING!!! DO YOU HAVE _ANY_ IDEA WHAT SORT OF IMPRESSION BLIND PEOPLE MUST GET WHEN YOU
WALK DOWN THE STREET TALKING TO THE OUJI IN THAT, THAT _WAY_!! "
" What way? " Goku looked at her, confused.
" ARGH!! " Chi-Chi slapped herself on the forehead, " NEXT TIME YOU TWO START TALKING TO EACH OTHER I OUGHTA USE A
TAPE-PLAYER AND RECORD YOU BOTH, THEN PLAY IT BACK SO YOU CAN _HEAR_ ALL THE INNOCENTLY SICK INNUENDOES!! _THEN_ MAYBE
YOU'LL GET WHY I'M TRYING TO PROTECT YOU YOU THICK-HEADED BOOB!!! "
" Inn-you-en-does?? " Goku cocked his head, bewildered.
" Wahhhh..hahaha.. " the still-dazed ouji giggled, slipping out of the hug and dropping onto the floor in a red
gooey puddle, " *SPLOOT*! "
" What was that? " Chi-Chi looked around, her hearing now stronger than usual due to her vision loss, " The Ouji
just melted again didn't he? GOKU! Quick me one of those squee-gee sponges and we'll mop him up before he can solidify
again! "
" NUH-UH! " Goku retorted, " I'M NOT HELPING YOU KILL LITTLE VEGGIE! "
" *A-hem*! " a voice came from the floor. Goku and the others looked down to see Vegeta now back to normal and
sitting on the ground.
" Kakarrotto, my future servant-maid, would you mind helping your all-omnipotent ruler get up? " he smirked.
" Oh brother here we go again. " Bulma groaned, turning around back towards the lab, " Come on dad let's get back
downstairs before world war 382 starts up. " she remarked sarcastically.
" Yes, sound advice, dear. " Dr. Briefs looked slightly nervous as he followed her downstairs.
" Veggie, why are you wearing one of my spare gis? " Goku asked, just noticing it.
" Umm, my training uniform got dirty and I happened to find this one in your trunk? " Vegeta replied, trying to
think of an answer.
Goku sniffed the air, " Wow Veggie, you smell kinda like Ji-chan. That's weird... "
" Yeah well, if you didn't clean your Kako-stench off your clothes maybe I'd smell a little bit less like you and
a little bit more like me. "
" If you knew it was dirty why did you put it on? "
" ... "
" ... "
" No reason. " Vegeta shrugged.
" HA! " Chi-Chi scoffed at him.
The ouji smirked, " Say, Kakarrotto, since Onna's ablility to prepare delicious food has been impaired by her
sudden blindness, how would you like me, your little buddy, to cook this year's thanksgiving feast, hmm? " Vegeta grinned
evilly.
Goku laughed, " Little Veggie I said it before and I will say it A-gain. You don't know how to cook and even if you
did you couldn't hold a candle to Chi-chan in the "yummy-food-creating" section. "
" How would you know that? You've never seen me cook before. " the prince said as-a-matter-of-factly.
" Veggie's got a point, but still-- "
" I can cook/bake circles around ANYTHING Onna can make! " Vegeta boasted, " Just give me a chance, eh? "
" Well?... " Goku scratched his head, then grinned, " OH-KAY! "
" Heh. " Vegeta instantly zipped out to the kitchen and began dashing around; taking out different ingredients and
tools and mixing together batters so fast only Goku could almost capture his movements. The larger saiyajin watched in
awe at the little ouji who was now performing things Goku had seen Chi-Chi do in the kitchen every day but at lightning
speed and in bulk. Vegeta suddenly screeched to a halt infront of the kitchen table as the smoke cleared, " TA-DA! "
" Uhhhhhhhhh.... " Goku just stared at the massive amount of pastries Vegeta had just created in complete shock. A
drool droplet fell out of the side of his mouth and onto Chi-Chi's shoe.
" Eew. " she felt the wet drool on her foot and shook it off, " What happened? "
" So, Kaka-chan. What do you think? " Vegeta said boastfully, then watches as Goku waddled past him and stared at
the mountain of food on the table dreamily. Goku reached for a muffin from the large variety of food and tossed it in
his mouth, cautiously chewing it. His eyes widened and he swallowed, then looked down at Vegeta in surprise.
" Veggie.... " Goku said w/big sparkily eyes, " NEVER EVER LEAVE ME AGAIN! " he squealed, grabbing the ouji and
squeezing him tightly, " I didn't think it was POSSIBLE, but that muffin was EVEN BETTER THAN CHI-CHAN'S!! " he hugged
tighter. Vegeta's face glowing bright red.
Chi-Chi's shoulder's slumped to their sides and her jaw hung open, " Buh buh buh buh, BETTER?! THAN _MINE_!? "
" Mmm! Chi-chan try one Veggie's yummy muffins they're so GOOD! " Goku said, handing her one while still hugging
the little ouji.
Chi-Chi sniffed it suspicously, then took a bite out of it and froze. She chewed it a couple times and gulped,
::Holy beef this IS better than my own!! But that's IMPOSSIBLE!!!:: Chi-Chi turned back to the two saiyajins, who were
still in the middle of a rather long hug. Her bottom left eyelid flinched, " Something tells me, I'm in trouble. "

1:14 AM 10/28/02
END OF PART ONE!
Vegeta: (grinning) OOoh, Onna IS in trouble. [rubs his hands together evilly] (to Chu) Say, you wouldn't happen to be nice
for a change and let her stay blind forever, wouldja?
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) Vedge, how is that (in the vague-est sense of the word) "nice"?
Vegeta: It's nice for me, I can tell you that much. (smirks)
Chuquita: (sighs) (blinks suddenly) Say, where's Son?
Vegeta: (looks around) How should _I_ know where Kakarrotto is every second of the day!!
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) Well you are a 'tiny' bit "obsessed" with him.
Vegeta: (gawks) I am NOT obsessed with Kakarrotto! He is nothing more than merely the object of my attention and the center
of my daily schedule everyday.
Chuquita: (confused) And how is that different?
Goku: (from above them; still in his wet-suit) HI VEGGIE!
Vegeta: [looks up to see Goku swimming through the air] Kakarrotto, WHAT ARE YOU _DOING_!?
Goku: I'm after the great white whale, Veggie!
Chuquita: Umm, Son-kun. You're not gonna find any whales up there. You're not gonna find ANY fish out of water.
?????: *FWWWWWWWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!*
Goku: THAR SHE BLOWS!
[a giant white whale comes swimming through the air above the audiance; Chu & Veggie's jaws drop to the floor]
Goku: QUICK VEGGIE! I'LL HARPOON HIM! [holds his hand out expecting Veggie to hand him something]
Vegeta: ...uh... (blinks) [looks down to his left to see a large harpoon] Here? [hands it to Goku]
Goku: (sweetly) Why thank you little Veggie! [turns to whale] YAHH!!! [harpoons it]
Chuquita: AHH! SON-SAN NO!!!
[candy instantly flies out of the while and all over the audiance]
Goku: ARG! I GOT 'IM!
Chuquita: [does a double-take at the while, which has now suddenly become a piñata of its former self] Now this has got to
be one of the most bizarre Corners EVER.
Vegeta: (staring blankly) I'm going to have to agree with you on that, Chu. [watches Son collect the candy from the 'whale'
and carry it back to the desk; then begin to eat it]
Chuquita: (nods) (suddenly grins at Veggie) You know that notebook I doodled "Kaka-germs" and "All Aboard" in before I
decided to turn them into fic-form? Well I think I've finally doodled the most bizarre story EVER to come out of my head.
Well, up to NOW, anyway.
Vegeta: (sweatdrops) Something tells me it's not fun.
Chuquita: No! It is. (I'm almost done doodling it) (to audiance) Fic ideas that I sometimes deem too bizarre or too
imagery-reliant usually end up in comic-strip form. My newest one I'm drawing I have to give some credit to Nene for the
comic's idea though. Back when I had the "reviewer request Corner" thing she gave an idea for a fic where Son & Veggie
wake up in a bed together nakee and Son's stomach's bothering him and Veggie thinks Son is somehow *cough* pregnant. I
don't write any yaoi stuff but I liked this idea so I was able to move stuff around so that you can tell at the beginning
that there was no possible way for it to have happened (Goku's still wearing his boxers when he pulls the covers off in
the hotel) and I was able to explain for why several strips later his stomach bloated out (he was allergic to something he
ate at Veggie's birthday party; where they got knocked out at then woke up in the hotel) but the really fun part was the
HUGE dream-sequence thing I did where we go into Goku's head while he's asleep and dreaming. I even made up 5 chibi
"fusion-babies" that appear in his dream-land. 4 boys. 1 girl. None of them have names except the girl who I called Kayka
which I was only able to think of cuz that's what we called Son-kun that time I used the B.B.O.A.S to change him into a
girl in the Corner a while ago. (to Veggie) And you know what?
Vegeta: What?
Chuquita: (grins) Making up your own fusion-babies is fun! A couple of 'um look a little bit like Gogeta and Vejitto too.
It gets kinda sad at the end though. (sighs) Actually it gets sad as soon as Goku finds out he's really dreaming up all
these kids (who, because I wanted to avoid the yaoi thing, don't even end up existing in reality or ever being born at the
end of the story) along with his own cheerful version of Veggie his mind made up. He's even sadder once he does wake up,
then feels better cuz he remembers he's going to have the fusion-babies anyway (saiyajin can breed in litters) then feels
bad again at the end (which I still have yet to doodle) when he and the doctors find out he's only bloated due to an allergy
and isn't having any babies at all. 'Course the really detail-catching readers figured that out at the very beginning due to
Son-kun's boxers.
Goku: (sniffles while stuffing his face) Poor comic-strip me, that's HORRIBLE! Thinking he's gonna get his very own lil
Veggie-babies and then ends up not getting any at all. *sniffle* I'd like some of my own little Veggie-babies. [looks over
at Veggie w/big sparkily eyes]
Vegeta: (flatly) Not a chance.
Goku: (pouts) Ohh.
Chuquita: I was thinking about putting this comic to fic-form like those other two, but even if I do it won't be till I'm
done with the other fics on my list. OH! Speaking of the future fics I've decided for the next episode-parody I'm going to
parody ep.288 "You're late Son Goku! Everyone's Partying!". (to Son) It SCREAMS the word "parody".
Goku: (grins) That's the episode where Veggie does something nice-n-sweet!
Vegeta: (ignores him; glowing bright red)
Chuquita: Also! A special reminder that Vejitto's making his first dub appearance at the end of this week! So stay tuned

Goku: Hee! Even without 5 imaginary fusion-babies I STILL have my Ji-chan and Goggie! (cheers) HOORAY FOR THE FUSION-BABIES!
Vegeta: (sweatdrops) Oh boy....
Chuquita: See you in Part 2 of "Eye Spy" everybody! (waves)
Goku: Scientists say chocolate is good for the heart! [shoves a mouthful of candy in his mouth]
Vegeta: (grumbles) Those same scientists also say it gives you bad headaches.
Goku: [shoves some of the candy in Veggie's mouth] Eat and be merry little Veggie!
Vegeta: (confused) Mery? Who's Mery?
Goku: (grins) BYE BYE EVERYONE! SEE YOU LATER!
Vegeta: "Mery?"...huh....

Chuey's Corner:
Goku: (grins) THAAAT'S ME! [points up the the q.o.t.w]
Chuquita: (happily) Hello and welcome to our Halloween/Thanksgiving special! We've taken the liberty of decorating the
Corner in a Halloween theme.
Goku: Heehee, Halloweenie.
[red carpet rolls out of nowhere towards and then infront of the desk; both turn in to the direction it came from]
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) Speaking of Halloweenies..
[two random people enter w/horns]
Random People: *DO-DO-DOO-DOO _DOO_*!!!
Random 1: ALL HAIL HIS HIGHNESS! [both exit and a small figure enters wearing a crown & cape that are WAY too big for
him and a fancy foreign outfit]
Vegeta: (grins) GREETINGS, COMMONERS!
Goku: (happily) IT'S LITTLE VEGGIE! [teleports over to Veggie & hugs him] I _MISSED_ YOU LITTLE VEGGIE! (eagerly) So what are
you supposed to be? The KING of the saiyajins? (little giggle)
Vegeta: (snorts) NO. I'm SUPPOSED to be THE KING OF THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE!!! [waves his scepter in the air and almost hits Goku
in the head with it]
Goku: [narrowly ducks being hit] *whew*
Vegeta: And what exactly are YOU supposed to be?
Goku: (grins) I'm a scuba-diver! [wearing a full-body; w/exception of his head; diving suit, flippers, goggles, mouth-breath-
-thingy. Wearing oxygen on his back]
Chuquita: (glances at Son's tail, which is also covered by his scuba-suit) (sweatdrop) That's slightly disturbing.
Goku: What? My tail?
Vegeta: (gawks) You put your TAIL in that thing TOO!?
Goku: (giggles) Heehee [sways his scuba-suit-covered tail infront of Veggie] Can't let it get all wet and salty in the ocean
now, can I?
Vegeta: ...uhh, (watches Goku's tail, which seems surprisingly content covered in scuba-cloth) (shakes his head) KAKARROTTO
WE'RE A FULL TWO HOURS AWAY FROM THE NEAREST BODY OF WATER!!
Chuquita: Actually we're about 2 seconds from it. [points to the little drool puddle on the desk leftover from Veggie
earlier]
Vegeta: (looks down at the desk and sweatdrops) Uh, heh-heh.
Goku: Veggie so cute! [reaches out to hug him]
Vegeta: (shrieks) AHH! NO STOP!
Goku: [freezes, arms still holding outward, ready to grab Veggie] ...
Vegeta: ...
Goku: [wiggles his fingers] *giggle* Hee-hee.
Vegeta: (sweatdrop) If you think you're hugging me wearing nothing more than that stupid face-gear and that second layer of
SKIN then you're MAD!
Goku: (frowns) It's not THAT tight on me.
Chuquita: (no comment)
Goku: (perks up) Oh well! Doesn't matter, I'm changing costumes after each chapter of this story anyway!
Vegeta: (blinks) You are?
Goku: Well I couldn't decide on just ONE costume! SO I DECIDED TO WEAR THEM _ALL_!! (whispers to Veggie) In fact, you won't
believe this but I'm wearing one under my wet suit RIGHT NOW.
Vegeta: (squeaks out) (glowing bright red) Oh.
Chuquita: [pulls out her Big Book of Author Spells] I was thinking of getting into the halloween thing too, so-- [pulls
something out from behind her]
Goku: (grins) A tail!
Chuquita: Yup! I used the B.B.O.A.S and conjured one up just for Halloween. Course I didn't make myself saiyajin or anything
like that. Besides if I had that would make me another one of Veggie's minions anyway.
Vegeta: ALL HAIL ME! Oof! [crown tilts forward and covers his eyes]
Goku: (giggles at Veggie) Silly lil Veggie. He's so small-n-cute.
Chuquita: In his own way, of course. I'm only gonna keep the tail for this Corner. Next fic it's gone.
Goku: So it's only a rental.
Chuquita: Yah, pretty much.
Vegeta: [trying to pull his crown off] OOF! URG! YARG!!
Chuquita: Havin some trouble there?
Vegeta: [points in the opposite direction she's sitting in] YOU KEEP OUT OF THIS!!
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) Hel-lo, I'm over here.
Vegeta: ....oh. [turns to her] YOU KEEP OUT OF THIS!!
Chuquita: (sweatdrops again)
Goku: (bravely) _I_ will help little Veggie free his eyesight! [grabs the crown and gives a swift pull, sending Veggie flying
out of the crown and across the room] (sweatdrops) (grins cheesily and turns to the audiance) HUR-RAH!
Vegeta: [getting back up] Oww.
Chuquita: Speaking of eyesight, that's what today's fic is about.
Goku: (grins) Chi-chan's eyesight to be exact.
Chuquita: It's a Thanksgiving fic with all the trimmings.
Goku: But if Chi-chan can't see how's she going to cook the feast?
Chuquita: Shh, don't give away the plotline before I give the summary!
Summary: Chi-Chi interupts Goku and Veggie during the worst possible time of their sparring match and ends up in the direct
path of a solar flare. After a visit to Capsule Corp, Bulma is certain Chi-Chi has been permanently blinded. But is she
right? Chi-Chi hopes not because Vegeta is using every chance he gets to drive her further and further to the brink of
insanity? Will she lose her mind before she regains her vision? Find out!
Chuquita: Alright, NOW you can give away the plotline.
Goku: I can't, there's nothing left to give.
Vegeta: (smirks) ACTUALLY, I have a little bit of spoiler nugget I'd like to share with Kakarrotto--
Goku: (w/big sparkily eyes) (baby voice) Wealwy, widdle Veggie 'o mine?
Vegeta: (glowing bright red) Well, I, uhh, that is to say... [shakes the redness from his face] For starters, _I_ get to be
the one to--
*****************************************************************************************************************************
" Ahh, thanksgiving! One of the few times of the year when my importance to the group is NOTICED! " Chi-Chi grinned
as she continued to mix the batter in the bowl, " AND one of the only things that evil little Ouji cannot even BEGIN to match
me in! " she laughed evilly. Chi-Chi looked out the window and glared up at the two saiyajins sparring in the air just above
the house, then paused as a blast of ki rushed past her. She rolled her eyes and continued mixing the batter, unfazed.
" AH-HAHAHAHA! TAKE THAT, KAKARROTTO! " Vegeta laughed as he floated infront of the window, his back to Chi-Chi. She
snarled at the Ouji's presence, then walked over to where he was floating and sharply elbowed him in the spine. Vegeta yelped
and reached both his hands over his shoulders to grab his back in pain, unintentionally giving the larger saiyajin a chance
to attack.
" RRRA! " Goku shouted as he flew at the ouji and knocked him into the kitchen. Goku held tightly to Vegeta as he
skidded the smaller saiyajin across the floor like a skateboard until they slammed into the wall, Vegeta VERY dizzy, " Heehee
hee, gotcha little Veggie! "
" Uhhh..head... " Vegeta groaned, then was about to angrily scream his lungs out at Goku when he noticed a ticked off
Chi-Chi out of the corner of his eye. The ouji smirked.
" Veggie you oh-kay? " Goku said, worried.
" Oh Kakay I love it when you play rough with me. " Vegeta said in a mock-overdramatic tone.
Chi-Chi angrily grabbed a frying pan from the stovetop, " OOH! YOU EVIL LITTLE-- " she swung the frying pan only to
have Vegeta duck and instead hit Goku in the line of fire, " --*BONG*!! " Chi-Chi froze when she realized what had happened.
" Ahh, Chi-chan that HURT! " Goku whinced, rubbing his head, " Whadja go and do THAT for! " he pouted.
" Yeah "Chi-chan", why did you go and hit poor sweet Kakay like that. " the ouji said up and hugged the larger
saiyajin, patting him on the back comfortingly.
" I WAS AIMING FOR _YOU_ YOU EVIL SHORT LITTLE PSYCHOPATH!! " Chi-Chi screamed at Vegeta.
" Hear that Kaka-chan? Now Onna's calling your beloved little buddy BAD NAMES! " Vegeta fake-pouted.
" Yeah Chi-chan! What is wrong with you today! " Goku said defensively, hugging the ouji tightly, " Veggie didn't do
anything bad to you today...yet. "
Vegeta sweatdropped.
" Err....Goku just take your stupid fight with the Ouji outside! " she pointed to the window, " I'm trying to create
a culinary masterpiece in here and you're, you're in here sitting ontop of that, that THING! " she disgustingly motioned to
Vegeta, who only waved back at her while snickering to himself.
" Maybe Kakay LIKES sitting ontop of me, Onna. Ever think of THAT? " Vegeta smirked.
" OOOH, GET OUT NOW!!! " Chi-Chi screamed. Goku gulped and flew back out through the window. Vegeta frustratingly
sat up, then stuck his tongue out at Chi-Chi.
" Neh! "
" Out, Ouji. " she grinned evilly.
" Hmmph, " Vegeta said as he climbed out of the window, " Fine, be that way Onna. Stay here while I go off to spar
against Kakarrotto-chan. " he smirked, " You'd probably be safer in here anyway, considering what a CONTACT SPORT sparring
is. Especially between two saiyajins who are infinately stronger than a mere human such as yourself. " he shrugged, then
flew off, " SO LONG ONNA! _I_ have a peasant to catch... " he snickered.
Chi-Chi stood there, tense with anger. She narrowed her eyes in the direction the ouji had left in, grabbed a large
steel-plated wooden club from behind her, and silently stomped out after them.
" Did you THINK it was funny to drag my body through your kitchen floor like a sled, Kakarrotto! " Vegeta glared at
the larger saiyajin as he dodged a flurry of punches.
" Heeheehee, I thought you made a great sled, little Veggie. " Goku laughed, " You seemed like you kinda enjoyed it
too. "
" NO, Kakarrotto I did NOT enjoy it! " Vegeta cringed, then smirked, " It was merely a ploy to cause Onna suffering
for that kick to my back. "
" Chi-chan KICKED you! " Goku gasped, teleporting away at the last second as Vegeta slammed his hands down where the
larger saiyajin's head was, " That's HORRIBLE! Is she just in a "Veggie's evil" mood today or what? "
Vegeta spun his leg around, connecting with Goku's left side, " Onna's ALWAYS in a "Veggie's evil" mood. " he snorted
, then trapped Goku in a headlock after he and bent down to grab his now aching side, " Heh-heh-heh! "Gotcha", Kakarrotto. "
" Urg! " Goku grunted as he tried to pull himself out of the death-grip the ouji had around his neck, " Wow Veggie...
...that's...pretty tight... " the large saiyajin squeaked out.
" Thanks. " Vegeta grinned boastfully, " I bet if I squeezed hard enough I could pop your head off like a ripe melon!
Care to see me try? "
" Aww Veggie you wouldn't do that even if somebody ordered you to; not to me... " Goku giggled.
" I WOULD TOO! " the ouji snapped.
" Then go ahead and try it. " the larger saiyajin challanged him.
" Uhh... " Vegeta blinked, not knowing how to respond, " Well I..err...ARG!!! " he tightened his grip by a little
bit.
Meanwhile Goku had gotten used to the tight arm wrapped around his neck and began to look around aimlessly when he
spotted something that made him grin. Vegeta had accidentally pulled a little bit of his tank top with him revealing the
ouji's stomach along with a little belly button.
" Aww...heehee. " Goku smiled mischievously at the belly button while Vegeta continued his death-hold on Goku's neck,
" Hello Veggie's belly button. " he waved at it, then quickly glanced up at Vegeta, who was mentally struggling on how much
tighter he could squeeze the larger saiyajin's neck before he really did rupture something fatal. Goku turned back to the
belly button and held out his pointer finger, " Heehee, heehee, " he giggled, reaching towards and instantly pressing lightly
on Vegeta's belly button, " Beeeep! "
" ... " the ouji suddenly froze, glowing bright red. His grip automatically loosened on Goku and his arms fell to his
sides.
" YAY I'M FREE!! " Goku cheered, " I guess that was the right button to push, huh little Veggie? "
" ...MmmMMMmm... " Vegeta made a content noise, still glowing.
" Veh-GEE, can you hear me in there? " Goku cocked his head.
" Heh, Kah-keee... " the smaller saiyajin mumbled in a daze. Goku grinned and hugged him.
" I love it when Veggie glows on me. " he shook the ouji he was hugging back and forth, " Little Veggie what do you
think about when you're glowing? "
" ....MMMMMMMmmm... "
" ... " Goku blinked, then perked up, " Good enough for me! " he squeezed tighter.
" Stupid little Ouji, why's he gotta be up so high! " Chi-Chi grumbled as she hid behind several bushes, taking
practice swings with her club, " No matter, by the time I'm done knocking his sick Ouji brains out, he'll be too stupid to
remember HOW to fly in the first place. "
Goku looked over his shoulder, sensing her ki, " Veggie did you feel that? "
Chi-Chi yelped and quickly ducked behind a tree, still holding the club.
" Huh wah-wah? " Vegeta babbled on dreamily, a small trail of drool hanging out of the side of his mouth.
Goku let go of him, " VEH-GEE! "
" ?! " Vegeta did a double-take. He quickly shook the redness from his face, " HEY! WHAT HAPPENED!! " he demanded.
" I was trying to ask you if you felt anything just now. " Goku said.
" Other than you, no. " the ouji blushed lightly, then shook that away as well, " Why? "
" I dunno, it felt like something was creeping behind those bushes back there. " Goku said suspiciously.
" Eh, probably just a fox or a deer or one of those woodland creatures that live around here. " Vegeta shrugged it
off.
" Oh. Oh-kay. " Goku nodded, then powered up and teleported above Veggie. He sent a ki blast flying down at the ouji,
hurtling him into the ground below. Vegeta growled and threw the ball of ki off of himself.
" WHAT WAS THAT FOR! I NEVER TOLD YOU TO START UP AGAIN!!! " Vegeta yelled.
" YOU NEVER TOLD ME TO STOP! " Goku retorted.
" ... " Vegeta sweatdropped, " ...well, YOU SHOULD'VE WAITED ANYWAY!! " the ouji formed another ball of ki and got
into a familiar position, " BIG...BANG ATTACK!! " he screamed, sending the blast at Goku, who dodged it just in time. The
ouji started sending dozens of small ki blasts at the bigger saiyajin at once. Goku skillfully avoided them and then put each
of his hands to his forehead. Vegeta watched him curiously.
" SOLAR FLARE!!! "
" DIE OUJI!!! " a voice screamed from behind him. Vegeta spun around to see Chi-Chi leap out of the bushes with the
club over her head, " AARR!! "
" *FWWOOSHH!* " a gigantic blast of light burst forth from Goku's direction at them. Vegeta, who already had his back
now towards Goku, covered his eyes anyway. Chi-Chi looked at him in confusion, then up at the light and screamed in fright.
She fell to the ground, soon followed by her club. When the light cleared Vegeta finally opened his eyes again, only to see
an unconsious figure beside him.
" It's...Onna. " he blinked, then broke into a grin, " KAKAY KILLED ONNA!! "
" CHI-CHAN!!! " Goku cried out, flying down to them, " CHI-CHAN! CHI-CHAN WAKE UP!! " he shook her by the shoulders,
" Ohhh, Veggie she's out cold! "
" You sure she's not dead? "
" No! "
" We could bury her right here. "
" NO! VEGGIE CHI-CHAN IS ALIVE! " Goku exclaimed, embarassed.
" Are you SURE about that, Kakay? " Vegeta folded his arms.
" Yeah. " Goku said, then checked her heartbeat and found it to be completely normal, " Her heart's beating, and
she's breathing oh-kay...I guess she just fainted again. "
" Hai, that can happen when you go to attack a handsome saiyajin prince and get exposed to the his peasant's flashy
light attack. Whatever that was. " Vegeta boasted.
" Solar flare, Veggie. " Goku said, picking Chi-Chi up, " I learned it from Tenshinhan. "
" Ahh, the one with the third eye. " Vegeta said, pointing to the spot on his own forehead where the additional
eyeball would be. He paused as Goku walked back towards the house, " HEY! KAKAY! WHERE ARE YOU GOING!! WE'RE NOT DONE YET! "
" I have to go lay down Chi-chan. " Goku explained, " We just can't LEAVE here here unconsious in the middle of the
battlefield. "
" Yeah, maybe YOU can't. _I_ on the other hand... " Vegeta trailed off, then paused to see Goku was now all the way
at the back door to the house by now, " KAKARROTTO!! WAIT FOR ME!!! " he shouted, running after him.
" Ohhh, Veggie I'm starting to get worried. It's been an hour and she hasn't woken up yet! " Goku said as sat by the
couch he had layed Chi-Chi on. The larger saiyajin dabbed the icepack on her head while Vegeta sat in the kitchen eating the
cookie dough batter Chi-Chi had left on the table when she went out on her attempt clobber him.
" She'll wake up EVENTUALLY. " Vegeta said in disgust, " I mean I'm not surprised. That solar flare of yours was
meant for me, not Onna. So it was OBVIOUSLY too powerful for a normal HUMAN to take. " he snickered at Chi-Chi, " I give her
another hour. "
Goku turned back to Chi-Chi, " Oh Chi-chan I am so sorry! Please forgive me! " he nervously clasped his hands
together in a praying motion.
" Onna will probably blame it all on me anyway once she wakes up, Kakarrotto. " Vegeta scooped a spoonful of cookie
dough out of the large bowl and shoved it in his mouth, " Mmmm, good stuff. " he happily held out the bowl to Goku, " Try
some! "
" Aww thank you little Veggie that is so sweet of you! " Goku said, impressed as he grabbed a handful out of the
bowl and sucked it out of his hand. Vegeta sweatdropped.
" One more thing in this house that's been made unedible. " the ouji cringed at the now kaka-germed dough.
" Mmm, tastes just like Chi-chan's cookies! " Goku mused, then froze, " VEGGIE! WE CAN'T EAT THIS! THIS IS THE BATTER
FOR THE COOKIES CHI-CHAN IS MAKING FOR OUR ANNUAL THANKSGIVING FEAST! " he gasped, then mused dreamily, " Chi-chan bakes the
yummiest cookies on the entire planet!! " a trail of drool dribbled out of the side of Goku's mouth, thoughts of many many
cookies waiting to be eaten swirling around in his head.
" Hmmph. I can bake cookies TOO ya know. " Vegeta narrowed his eyes, snorting.
Goku stared at him blankly, then broke into a laugh, " Little Veggie don't be silly! You can't bake and cook goodies!
And even if you could they couldn't possibly compare to Chi-chan's! " he boasted.
" Hmm....Kakarrotto? If I COULD bake "goodies" that were superior to the Onna's, would you consider leaving this
backwoods hut of yours for a more CIVILIZED setting; say, Capsule Corp? " Vegeta posed his question eagerly.
" I don't think there IS any way to make pastries any better than Chi-chan's, Veggie. " Goku said skeptically,
" She's an expert at it. " he nodded, " I do not question the master of the baked goods! " Goku grinned widely.
" Ohhhh.... " a groan came from behind them.
" CHI-CHAN! " Goku squealed, spinning around to see Chi-Chi struggling to sit up, " YOU'RE OH-KAY! " he hugged her
tightly, " You had me so worried! For a little while there I thought Veggie was right about you being dead, but _I_ knew that
a solar flare couldn't bring you down that easy! " he sniffled, kissing her on the cheek. An agitated ouji sat in the corner,
his tail twitching violently. Vegeta glanced around the room, then stopped at the bowl the leftover cookie dough was in and
slapped it off the table and to the floor, causing a loud crash.
Chi-Chi's eyes flung open, " WHAT WAS THAT!! "
" Uhh, " Goku sweatdropped at the broken bowl behind him and a defiant-looking Vegeta, " Nothing Chi-chan. Veggie, he
uh, kinda knocked one of your bowls over.
" OUJI!!! " she screamed angrily, turning to the wall, " WAIT'LL I GET MY HANDS ON YOU I'LL WRING YOUR SICK LITTLE
OUJI NECK!!! "
Both saiyajin stared at her like she had lost her mind.
" Umm, Chi-Chi? Veggie's over there. " Goku said, pointing in the other direction, " You're yelling at the wall. "
" ... " Chi-Chi's face flushed, embarassed, " Well MAYBE if somebody turned the LIGHTS on in here I'd be ABLE to see
where that Ouji is so I CAN yell at him! "
Goku's face covered with worry while a look of intrigue began to creep on Vegeta's, " Buh, but Chi-chan, the lights
ARE on. "
Chi-Chi turned a pale white, " Say what? " she said bluntly.
" I don't think Onna can SEE us, Kakay. " Vegeta cocked his head and grinned mischievously. He gleefully hopped over
to where the couple was sitting and wandered around the couch, " Now Onna, I'm going to shine a VERY bright light infront of
you and I want you to tell me if you can see me. " he said, then blasted into ssj2. Chi-Chi shielded her eyes, then opened
them slightly, " Well? "
" Everything just got brighter. " she replied.
" But you cannot see any of my shape or form? Nor Kakarrotto's? " he asked.
" No. " Chi-Chi spat, " Goku! I'm sick of this stupid Ouji joke! Now turn the lights on RIGHT NOW or you're going to
STARVE the rest of the week locked up in your room! " she threatened him.
" CHI-CHAAAN! THE LIGHTS ARE ON!! " Goku panicked, " SEE! " he reached for the nearest light-switch and began to turn
it off and on, " OFF ON OFF ON! IT'S WORKING PERFECTLY!!! "
Chi-Chi gulped, beginning to seriously consider something was wrong. The brightness had increased and decreased as
Goku had flickered with the light-switch. However, nothing except the change in darkness and lightness was visible to her,
" Oh-kay...NOW I'm getting nervous. " her left bottom eyelid twitched. Unbeknownst to Chi-Chi Vegeta was currently floating
infront of her and making faces at her. Goku sweatdropped.
" VEH-GEE! Cut it out! "
" Why? It's not like Onna can SEE us anyway. " Vegeta folded his arms stubbornly.
" See you? What's he doing to you Goku! TELL ME! " Chi-Chi demanded.
" Oh KAKAY your hair is SOOOOOOooooOOOOooo SOFT and BEAUTIFUL to run my hands through! " the ouji exclaimed in a mock
over-dramatic voice. Goku looked at him oddly; the ouji was still floating a good foot away from him and his hands weren't
anywhere near the larger saiyajin.
" ERRR, ARRRG!! " Chi-Chi lashed out at Vegeta, not only completely missing him by a full 3 feet but also forgeting
she was on the couch and causing her to fall onto the ground painfully.
" HAHAHAHAHA! " Vegeta laughed, " THIS is going to be fun. "
" VEGGIE! Leave Chi-chan alone! " Goku exclaimed, helping Chi-Chi up, " You still have your lil Veggie-vision. But
Chi-chan might be blinded for LIFE!! "
" Li, li, LIFE?! " Chi-Chi froze, her jaw hanging open in shock. She quickly shook it off, " OHHHHH NO! No no no no
no! I can't do that. I can't go around for the rest of my life without being able to SEE! If I can't see I won't be able to
stop that evil little Ouji from trying to steal you away because I won't know where to look for you and it would be pointless
to even TRY to look because I won't be able to see you!!! "
" Forget seeing Kakarrotto, you can't "see" ANYTHING. " Vegeta shrugged.
" YOU SHUDDUP, OUJI! " Chi-Chi growled at him.
Vegeta sighed, " I'm over HERE, Onna. "
She cringed angrily, " I KNOW THAT!!! " she screamed in a new direction, which, sadly, was still the incorrect
direction Vegeta was floating in.
" Onna can't sense ki very well, can she, Kakarrotto? " he asked the larger saiyajin.
" No... " Goku shook his head, then shrieked suddenly, " AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! "
Vegeta turned to him, " Kakarrotto? "
" LITTLE VEGGIE IF CHI-CHAN CAN'T SEE HOW'S SHE GONNA COOK THANKSGIVING DINNER FOR EVERYBODY! EVEN WORSE--HOW'S SHE
GONNA COOK FOOD FOR _ME_? " Goku yelped, squeezing the smaller saiyajin tightly against him, " Little buddy of mine I am too
used to eating yummy cooked goodness to go back to hunting down and roasting forest animals by myself! "
" Heh-heh, yeahhhh... " Vegeta grinned, glowing bright red.
" Don't worry Go-chan, I'm sure this is only temporary. " Chi-Chi said, trying to calm him down. She walked towards
the direction of Goku's sniffling, " Why I bet if we go back to Bulma's she'll tell you the same thing. Who knows--she might
even have a way to get my vision back to normal even faster. " she patted him on the shoulder, or what she thought was his
shoulder but turned out to be his arm, " And if it takes a little longer to return then I can just instruct you and you can
make the dinner for me. Like my assistant. "
" You mean I get to be Chi-chan's food-making aa-sistant? " Goku said w/big sparkily eyes.
" *YEOW*! "
Goku turned his attention downwards to see Vegeta shaking his hand in pain, " Kaka-chan, your little Veggie cut his
lil finger? Will you take a look at it and make it all better? " the ouji fake-pouted.
" Veggie cut his finger? " Goku's eyes widened as he took one of Vegeta's gloves off and looked the hand over, " Oh,
where is it? Is it oh-kay? Oh my poor little Veggie! " the larger saiyajin carefully searched the ouji's hand for the cut,
" Does it hurt much? " he rubbed Vegeta on the head to comfort the little ouji while he checked.
::Here I am--BLIND--and Goku's busy babying the Ouji over a nonexistent papercut!!:: Chi-Chi thought to herself,
" GOKU CUT THAT OUT!! HE'S LYING HE HAS NO INJURY!! "
" How would you know, YOU can't see my little Veggie's PAIN! " Goku retorted.
" Yeah Onna. Kakay FEELS for me. " Vegeta boasted.
" OOH! GOKU! I'M TEMPORARILY BLIND! VEGETA HAS A PAPERCUT! WHO DO YOU THINK IS MORE IN NEED OF YOUR SERVICES!!! "
Chi-Chi screamed.
Vegeta smirked at her, then turned back to the bigger saiyajin, " Kakay-chan will you smooch your lil buddy's hand
and make it all better? " he said in a baby-voice.
" Aww, sure little Veh-- "
" --YOU DO AND I'LL SKIN YOU ALIVE!!! "
Goku felt all the blood rush out of his face as he froze at the frighteningly rageful tone of Chi-Chi's voice.
" Yes Chi-chan. " he nodded politely, sweat dripping down his face.
" NOW....direct me to the door, you've got to drive me over to Bulma's so she can fix my eyes for me! " Chi-Chi said
nicely. Goku nearly fell over.
" Yes Chi-chan. " Goku repeated, then ever-so-gently set the ouji in his arms down on the floor.
" WHAT'S TAKING SO LONG!!! "
" Kakay was just making sure he set me down as comfortably as possible, Onna. Hope you don't mind; being that with
you unable to see, Kakay's going to need someone else to fulfil some of your, *a-hem* jobs when it comes to his PERSONAL
_NEEDS_. " Vegeta grinned evilly, patting Goku's hand. The larger saiyajin gave him a little smile.
" OH I'LL GIVE _YOU_ "PERSONAL NEEDS" YOU EVIL LITTLE MONSTER!!! " Chi-Chi stomped forward, vaguely following the
sound of Vegeta's voice.
" AWWW, KAKAY _THANK YOU_! My royal hand feels SO MUCH BETTER now. " the ouji giggled embarassingly.
" But I didn't DO anyth-- " Goku said confused until Vegeta slapped his hand over the larger saiyajin's mouth and
made a shh-ing motion with his finger. Goku sweatdropped, " Veggie this isn't very nice. " he pouted.
" SHH! " Vegeta said louder, then walked up to Chi-Chi, " Wanna know WHERE ELSE Kakay smooched me? " he grinned
evily.
" BUT I DIDN'T "SMOOCH" ANYTHING!! " Goku exclaimed, his cheeks hot pink with embarassment. He clutched them with his
hands in an attempt to make them fade.
" Kakay you don't have to be in denial! It's not like Onna can see us anyway, not NOW. " Vegeta said mockingly.
" VEH-GEE-EEE!! " Goku backed up and turned around to keep the others from seeing the pink glow seeping into his
face, " DON'T LIE TO CHI-CHAN WHEN SHE'S UNABLE TO SEE YOU!!! "
" Heh, that was a pretty vague statement, don't you think? " Vegeta smirked, asking Chi-Chi, who narrowed her eyes at
him, grabbed Vegeta by the collar, and repeatedly smacked him across the face.
" HAH HAH HAH HAH HAH HAH! " she then lefted her knee and kicked him in the croch. The ouji yelped and fell to his
knees. Chi-Chi grabbed Goku's wrist and dragged him off in the direction of the front door.
" GOKU! BULMA'S! NOW! "
" Yes Chi-chan. " he gulped, then looked over his shoulder at the fallen prince, " But shouldn't we go help little
Veggie first? "
" FORGET "LITTLE VEGGIE", WE HAVE MORE IMPORTANT THINGS TO WORRY ABOUT!! " Chi-Chi hissed.
" MORE IMPORTANT than my little Veggie? " Goku looked on in awe.
Chi-Chi growled, " Goku--I'M BLIND!! "
" Oh yeah. " he grinned cheesily, remembering.
" HONESTLY! You can remember what that Ouji had for breakfast but you can't remember that I've become BLIND as of
several HOURS ago! "
" Chi-chan, wall. "
" You'd think the fact that me losing one of my senses would have ANY EFFECT on your brain--but NOOOOoooOOOOooo, not
you, Goku. "I'm sorry Chi-chan, I forgot you were blind because I was busy making sure 'little Veggie'-- " she ended in a
mock-disgust tone, " "was comfortable." SHEESH! Where ARE your priorities set ANYWAY! "
" Chi-chan, WALL. "
" *THUMP*! "
Goku cringed to see his wife had just missed the front door by mere inches. Chi-Chi twitched in pain and backed up.
" Wall. " she repeated, trying her best to stay dignified. Goku took her by the hand and led her out to the car. He
sat her in the backseat.
Goku spoke up, conserned, " Chi-chan you wait here oh-kay, I'm gonna go get-- " Goku froze in surprise to see Vegeta
already strapped in the front passangers seat and grinning at him. The ouji happily patted the driver's seat, " --wow. You're
a fast lil ouji aren'tcha Veggie? " Goku smiled, impressed.
" I can go ANY speed you want, Kaka-chan. " Vegeta smirked.
" OUT OUJI! " Chi-Chi screamed, pointing in the direction of the car door.
" We might as well let my little Veggie ride with us, Chi-chan. He DOES live at Capsule Corp and since we're all
going to the same place we should give him a lift. " Goku explained.
" Hear that Onna, Kakay wants to give me a "lift". " Vegeta snickered at her. Chi-Chi growled as Vegeta sat back in
his seat, " Kakarrotto is going to make such a fine servant-maid one day... " he mused.
" Heee, you mean "princess". " Goku grinned widely, correcting him.
A vein bulged on the ouji's forehead, " NO, I mean SERVANT-MAID. "
" Prin-cess. " Goku said in a sing-song voice. Vegeta grumbled, shut his eyes and folded his arms. His face glowing
bright red, " "Princess Kakay". Hee-hee, that's gonna be FUN! "
" You're NOT going to be my "princess", Kakarrotto. " the ouji growled aggitatedly as Goku started up the car, " You
would be the saiyajin no oujo over MY dead body! "
" Not to mention MINE. " Chi-Chi agreed.
" THAT can be arranged. " Vegeta rubbed his hands together menacingly.
" GOKU! THE OUJI'S THREATENING ME WITH MY LIFE!! "
" Aww, Chi-chan. Veggie doesn't threaten people. Not anymore. " Goku smiled, turning towards the ouji, " Veggie's a
good boy now, right Veggie? "
" Yes, Veggie IS a "good boy" now. " Vegeta responded, snickering, " Say Kakay? Can your "good boy" sit on your lap
for the ride up? "
Goku laughed, " If little Veggie can fit I don't see why no--t. " he blinked in surprise to see Vegeta now sitting
on his lap comfortably, " HOW DO YOU DO THAT! "
" Do what? "
" _I_ DIDN'T EVEN SEE YOU MOVE FROM OVER THERE TO OVER HERE! " Goku gawked, " AND YOU WERE EVEN BELTED IN!! " he
turned to the passager's seat to find the seatbelt was still belted together, " But how could you-- " Goku felt a creepy
aurora around him and shivered, then turned back to Vegeta and shrieked, " AHH!! " somehow Vegeta had reached and plugged in
the seatbelt around the two of them, " Oh-kay, Veggie? This is getting creepy. "
" What's getting creepy Kaka-chan? " Vegeta asked innocently.
" Veggie how did you move around so fast without teleporting? " Goku felt a nervous sweat drip down his face.
" It's my little secret. " the ouji grinned, then whispered, " And maybe if you keep real quiet on the way to Bulma's
I'll tell you when we get there. "
" OOoh. Veggie's gonna show me his new secret trick! " Goku giggled with excitement, " I CAN'T WAIT!! "
Vegeta looked over his shoulder at Chi-Chi, who was currently deep in thought, " Hey Onna, guess where I am? " he
grinned anxiously.
" I'd rather not. " she spat.
" I'm on Kakay's lap! "
Chi-Chi's eyes shot wide open, " YOU'RE WHERE!? "
" Veggie's been a good boy so I'm letting him ride on my lap on the way up like he asked. " Goku cheerfully
explained, " And when we get there Veggie's gonna show me his new teleportation ability. It's like instant transmission, only
you can't sense it! " he giggled.
" I can't WAIT till we hit some BUMPS in the road. " Vegeta grinned evilly. Chi-Chi froze, a large sweatdrop on the
side of her head.
" Goku, you get him off your lap RIGHT NOW! " Chi-Chi warned, her voice slightly shakey.
" Silly Chi-chan, there's nothing to worry about. Besides, Veggie can even help me steer the car, can'tcha little
buddy? " he said to the smaller saiyajin, who placed his hands on the bottom of the steering wheel, " Awww, Veggie's trying
to drive too. That's so cute! " Goku squealed.
" Heh-heh-heh. " Vegeta chuckled to himself, then smirked, " Bump. "
" Bump? " Goku looked up to see several bumps in the road.
" *BA-DUMP-BUH-BUMP-BUH-BUMP*!! " the car bounced over the bumps and then suddenly screeched to a halt.
" What happened now? What is it! " Chi-Chi demanded, looking around..well, making the motion with her head anyway.
Two twitching, freaked out saiyajins sat on the drivers seat with blank looks on their faces. Vegeta's face was
glowing bright red and Goku's a bright pink. Goku emotionlessly clicked the car-door open, stood up, and carrying Vegeta out
and around to the passanger's seat where he plunked the ouji down and strapped him in, then walked back over to the driver's
seat and sat down. He desperately tried to shake off the glow from his face, " Remind me never to do that ever again. " his
voice sounded shakey. Goku turned the car back on and reached to grab the shift only to see a small white glove shift it into
drive first. All color instantly drained out of Goku's face as he looked behind himself to see Vegeta was now sitting beneath
him, waving cheesily, " AHHHH!! VEGGIE STOP THAT!!!! " he cried out, pulling Vegeta out from under him, re-dragging him over
to the passanger's side, and strapping him in, " I don't know how you did that just now but I KNOW you did it. " Goku shook
his finger at the ouji, then hopped over him and sat in the driver's seat, " Now Veggie don't you do that again or you will
be walking home to Bulma's...or flying...or traveling whatever way it is little Veggies travel by. "
" "Little Veggies" have many modes of transportation. " Vegeta said sneakily.
" ....uh, right. " Goku felt uneasily, " Oh well, off we go! "
Vegeta smirked, " Yes, off we go indeed. "
::It's been quiet. Awfully quiet. TOO quiet:: Chi-Chi thought to herself. She gulped. The trio had been driving for
over an hour and she had yet to hear a peep between the two saiyajins, " Go-chan? "
" ... "
" Ouji? "
" ... "
Chi-Chi shivered, " Come on Goku, this isn't funny! "
" SHH! " a voice came from infront of her.
" Go-chan? " she blinked.
" Chi-chan be quiet. Little Veggie is sleeping and I don't wanna wake him up till we get to his house. " Goku
whispered.
Chi-Chi smiled brightly, " You mean that evil little creep's been asleep this whole time? "
Goku turned to his right to see Vegeta sitting back in his chair with his head tilted up and a trail of drool
dribbling out of the side of his mouth, " Yup! Veggie's snoozin and a'cruisin. " Goku grinned at him, " I guess some people
just get lulled to sleep on long car rides. "
" Thank GOD! " Chi-Chi wiped her forehead in relief and sat back, " You both had me so worried. Not being able to see
makes what you see in your imagination seem so much worse. " she groaned.
" Well you're lucky, you're not the one who had to watch Veggie's creepy disappearing-reappearing act! " Goku
shivered, " I would put little Veggie in one place and he would instantly appear in another! Without even having to
teleport! " he exclaimed.
" THAT'S because the Ouji is evil incarnate! DEMONS like him can DO that sort of thing. " Chi-Chi snorted, folding
her arms.
Goku laughed at her, " Chi-chan what are you talking about? Little Veggie isn't evil. And he's NOT a demon. He's just
a silly lil ouji with magical powers! "
" When you say it THAT way it makes him sound like an angel or something. " Chi-Chi grumbled.
" He is. " Goku said happily, " A kooky little angel Veggie. "
" Yeah right. " she muttered with sarcasm.
" Well maybe if you didn't hate my little buddy so much maybe you wouldn't have tried to attack him and gotten blind
and then you'd still be in the kitchen making those yummy cookies for all of us. " Goku said as-a-matter-of-factly.
" ... " Chi-Chi paused, " HA! SEE! IT _IS_ ALL THE OUJI'S FAULT! HE'S PURE EVIL I TELL YOU! EVIL!! " she screamed,
pointing in Vegeta's direction.
" Huh? " Vegeta lazily opened his eyes halfway, paritally waking up, " Whe am I? " he mumbled.
" You're home! " Goku chirped. The ouji turned to his left and smiled.
" Why hello Kakarrotto, *yawn* what are you doing here? "
" Veggie is still tired. " Goku nodded, then patted Vegeta on the head, " Little Veggie you can wait in the car while
I take Chi-chan inside to see if Bulma can help her get unblind, oh-kay? " the larger saiyajin got out of the car, then
helped Chi-Chi out and led her inside Capsule Corp.
" NEH! " Chi-Chi blew a raspberry at the ouji, then happily clung to Goku's arm as they walked out of view.
" 'wonder what that was all about? " Vegeta said sleepily, then bolted to attention, " KAKAY! ONNA! THE BLINDNESS! "
everything that had recently happened instantly re-appeared in his brain, " Oh crap! How long was I asleep for! " he growled,
getting out of the car, " I just ruined about 2 perfectly good hours of driving Onna off the deep-end! NOW what am I gonna
do? " he rubbed his chin as he walked around to the trunk and leaned against it, " Hmm... " Vegeta paused, then opened the
trunk, " I wonder.... " a grin appeared on his face when he saw an extra gi outfit sitting in the corner of the trunk along
with extra boots, boxers, and those little blue wrist thingys. The ouji grinned evilly and looked upward, " Thank you Kakay."
" So, what do you think? Is Chi-chan gonna get better soon? " Goku asked Bulma and Dr. Briefs. Chi-Chi was sitting on
a chair in the lab.
" I'm not sure yet, we'll have to take a retina scan first to see how bad the damage is. " Dr. Briefs said, holding
up a small machine infront of Chi-Chi's eyes and pressing several buttons on it.
" You're saying Chi-Chi got this way from a solar flare attack? " Bulma stared at Goku in surprise, " Why did you
attack her? "
" I _DIDN'T_ attack her! " Goku exclaimed, embarassed, " I was attacking Veggie when Chi-chan came up from behind the
bushes with her club and tried to knock Veggie's head off with it. While I was launching the attack Veggie had turned around
because he heard Chi-Chi scream at him. Veggie blocked his eyes with his hands but Chi-chan looked up directly into the light
and fainted. " he said sadly, then sighed, " She woke up this way a couple hours later. " he looked down at her w/big sorry
eyes, " Will Chi-chan be better soon, Bulma? "
" SOON?! I don't know if EVER would even be a possibility! GOKU SHE WAS HIT BY AN ATTACK THAT WAS _MEANT_ FOR VEGETA!
DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW MUCH STRONGER HE IS THAN HER!!! "
" Don't rub it in. " Chi-Chi grumbled, folding her arms while Dr. Briefs continued to work the retina machine.
" ANY NORMAL HUMAN WOULD BE INSTANTLY KILLED BY ANYTHING YOU WOULD THROW AT HIM! I have no idea exactly HOW powerful
the taiyo-ken you used on them was but...Goku you may have blinded her for LIFE! " Bulma gasped.
It was at that point that Goku's eyes widened to a point where they took up half his head and his skin turned a pale
green. Chi-Chi fell over and nearly fainted.
" Wha--wha-wha--WHAT?! " Chi-Chi shrieked, standing up in a woozily position, " GOKU ARE YOU NUTS! BULMA I CAN'T BE
BLIND FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE, I JUST CAN'T! THAT ISN'T POSSIBLE! IF I CAN'T SEE HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO PROTECT MY BABY FROM
THAT EVIL MANIPULATING OUJI!!! "
" For YOUR information that "evil manipulating Ouji" is my husband and second of all dad and I will process the scans
he took of your eyes and we'll see if the damage is reversible or if it will be able to heal on its own. In the meantime, go
lye down somewhere, you'll feel better. " Bulma said with a tint of aggrivation in her voice, " You can find the living room
cough, right? "
" Of course I can! I've been here enough times that it'll be no problem at all! " Chi-Chi boasted, then headed up the
stairs. Goku was about to follow her when Bulma grabbed him by the sleeve.
" Son-kun, can we talk to you for a moment. " Bulma said, concerned.
" Sure! " Goku said cheerfully, " What do wanna know? "
" Umm, Goku....I don't know how to say this, but, " Bulma gave a pleading look over to Dr. Briefs, who got the
message.
" Oh! " he took the scans over to them, " Goku-san, I'd like to show you something. " he took a photograph out of his
pocket, " This is a picture of a normal retina. And this is of a person with 400/400 vision. That's the equivalent of someone
who's blind. This third one is of Chi-Chi's. " Dr. Briefs held up one of the scans he had taken which looked identical to the
latter of the first two.
Goku stared at the pictures for a minute, then looked at him sadly, " You're trying to say I made Chi-chan blind? "
he sniffled.
" Well, not in so many words. " Dr. Briefs replied, " She's not what you would label completely blind, but her vision
has most certainly been damaged beyond repair. In fact I'm surprise her eyeballs weren't liquified after that attack. " he
chuckled lightly, then stopped when he saw the completely devastated expression on Goku's face, " ...oh, I'm sorry my boy.
Just trying to make light of the seemingly dim situation you know. "
" ... " Goku's eyes instantly filled with tears, " What am I gonna tell Chi-chan? " he said helplessly.
" There's not much TO tell her. " Dr. Briefs scratched his head, " Tell her she's permanently blinded and you're
sorry for the whole accident. "
" Dad, that REALLY doesn't help. " Bulma sweatdropped, " Chi-Chi's not the most STABLE person alive, temperment-wise
if you know what I mean. "
" Should I tell her now? " Goku asked, choked up.
" No, better to wait till after she gets her nap. Less painful that way. " Dr. Briefs nodded, " I mean, I think she
should at least be allowed to have a false hope for another 20 minutes or so. " he looked down at his watch.
Bulma sighed, " Please stop while you're ahead, dad. "
" What? What did I say? " Dr. Briefs looked at her, confused.
She groaned, " Nevermind. "
" Stupid Ouji. It's all his fault I'm in this mess! " Chi-Chi grumbled as she tried to get to sleep on the living
room couch. Meanwhile a small figure wearing a gi that was WAY too big for him proudly entered the room in a boastful march,
" If he didn't decide to come 'sparring' against my Go-chan this NEVER would have happened. "
" AhhHHHHHHHHHhhhhHHHHhhhhh! " a pleased moan came from a foot away from her. Vegeta stretched his arms, then sighed
in relief, " Well, THAT felt good. "
" Ouji. " she glared in his general direction.
" Onna. "
Chi-Chi sniffed the air, " Goku? " she cocked her head, " Is he in here with you, Ouji? " she said bitterly.
" Oh-ho-ho WAS Kakay with me. " Vegeta proclaimed overdramatically.
" And what's THAT supposed to mean? " Chi-Chi sat up and folded her arms.
" You know, Onna. They say when a person loses one of their senses the other 4 increase in their abilities by a
substantial margin! " Vegeta smirked.
" Is, Goku, in, this, room. Ouji. " Chi-Chi said bluntly.
" Nope. Only little 'ol me. " Vegeta grinned proudly.
" Good for you. " she snorted, " If he's not here then why can I smell him? "
" Oh that's just me, Onna. Here, take a whiff. " he held out his arm. Chi-Chi stared ahead, then took a deep breath
and nearly choked.
" *HACK*HACK* Dear GOD! *HACK* it's like some PUTRID combination of you AND Goku! " Chi-Chi gagged in disgust, " What
were you DOING to him! You smell worse than that sick fusion creature of yours! "
" You mean Vejitto. " the ouji smirked.
" I'm NOT going to say that word. " she snuffed at the name.
" You don't have to. " Vegeta said calmly, then took a whiff of his gi shirt, " Ahh! I have to say I smell heavenly!"
he bent down to the height Chi-Chi was sitting at and grinned wickedly, " Wanna know what caused me to currently smell like
this? It's has to do with my Kakay-chan. "
" HUF! _YOUR_ "Kakay-chan". Give me a break! " Chi-Chi layed back down and faced the back of the couch.
" ... " Vegeta folded his arms, " ...he loved it. "
She rolled her eyes, " HA! " Chi-Chi gave a disbelieving mock-laugh. A long pause occured and she began to feel very
uneasy.
Vegeta leisurely looked up at the clock on the wall, then leaned to whisper into her ear, " ....I was on top. " might
very well have been the last four words the ouji spoke for Chi-Chi instantly bolted up, thrust her hands around his neck and
tacked Vegeta to the floor. She then began to violently repeatedly smack his head onto the floor while cursing up a storm,
" --AND I'LL RIP EVERY LAST ORGAN OUT OF YOUR BODY AND FEED IT TO THE RATS YOU EVIL OUJI HOW DARE YOU WALK AROUND IN HIS
CLOTHES LIKE YOU OWN THEM I'LL YANK YOUR EYES OUT OF THEIR SOCKETS AND MAKE _YOU_ BLIND FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE TOO! "
" ...but I'm not really sure if it's right to tell her so early and-- " Goku trailed off as he, Bulma, and Mr. Briefs
walked up the stairs and into the living room. All three gawked in shock to see Chi-Chi literally beating Vegeta's head into
the ground, " VEGGIE!!! " Goku shrieked in terror.
Chi-Chi froze and turned in the direction of the sound, " Go--but, if you're just coming out from down there, then
where did he get, any where was he, buh, how--- " her face turned red with embarassment. She turned back to Vegeta and glared
, " YOU TRICKED ME YOU CREEP! YOU USED MY TEMPORARY BLINDNESS AGAINST ME AND MADE ME THINK YOU TOOK ADVANTAGE OF MY GO-CHAN
WHILE I WAS NAPPING HERE!!! "
" Oww... " Vegeta twitched in pain.
" LITTLE VEGGIE! " Goku ran over to them and pulled Vegeta out from under Chi-Chi, " Oh my poor little buddy! " he
exclaimed in fright as he hugged Vegeta tightly, " Are you alright? Does it hurt bad? I'm SO SORRY I left you all alone in
the car! What was I thinking? I should've been a more responsible big buddy and carried you inside with me! " Goku snuggled
the little ouji closer.
" Heh-heh-hehhhhhh... " Vegeta's face glowed bright red as he let out a dazed chuckle.
" That's my Veggie, let it all out. " the larger saiyajin said, trying to comfort him.
" WILL YOU STOP THAT!! " Chi-Chi screamed, pointing to the kitchen. Goku sweatdropped.
" Chi, over here. "
" ...RIGHT! " she pointed at him, " WILL YOU STOP THAT! HAVE YOU EVER CLOSED YOUR EYES AND LISTENED TO YOURSELF TALK
TO THAT OUJI!! DEAR LORD, IS IT SICKENING!!! DO YOU HAVE _ANY_ IDEA WHAT SORT OF IMPRESSION BLIND PEOPLE MUST GET WHEN YOU
WALK DOWN THE STREET TALKING TO THE OUJI IN THAT, THAT _WAY_!! "
" What way? " Goku looked at her, confused.
" ARGH!! " Chi-Chi slapped herself on the forehead, " NEXT TIME YOU TWO START TALKING TO EACH OTHER I OUGHTA USE A
TAPE-PLAYER AND RECORD YOU BOTH, THEN PLAY IT BACK SO YOU CAN _HEAR_ ALL THE INNOCENTLY SICK INNUENDOES!! _THEN_ MAYBE
YOU'LL GET WHY I'M TRYING TO PROTECT YOU YOU THICK-HEADED BOOB!!! "
" Inn-you-en-does?? " Goku cocked his head, bewildered.
" Wahhhh..hahaha.. " the still-dazed ouji giggled, slipping out of the hug and dropping onto the floor in a red
gooey puddle, " *SPLOOT*! "
" What was that? " Chi-Chi looked around, her hearing now stronger than usual due to her vision loss, " The Ouji
just melted again didn't he? GOKU! Quick me one of those squee-gee sponges and we'll mop him up before he can solidify
again! "
" NUH-UH! " Goku retorted, " I'M NOT HELPING YOU KILL LITTLE VEGGIE! "
" *A-hem*! " a voice came from the floor. Goku and the others looked down to see Vegeta now back to normal and
sitting on the ground.
" Kakarrotto, my future servant-maid, would you mind helping your all-omnipotent ruler get up? " he smirked.
" Oh brother here we go again. " Bulma groaned, turning around back towards the lab, " Come on dad let's get back
downstairs before world war 382 starts up. " she remarked sarcastically.
" Yes, sound advice, dear. " Dr. Briefs looked slightly nervous as he followed her downstairs.
" Veggie, why are you wearing one of my spare gis? " Goku asked, just noticing it.
" Umm, my training uniform got dirty and I happened to find this one in your trunk? " Vegeta replied, trying to
think of an answer.
Goku sniffed the air, " Wow Veggie, you smell kinda like Ji-chan. That's weird... "
" Yeah well, if you didn't clean your Kako-stench off your clothes maybe I'd smell a little bit less like you and
a little bit more like me. "
" If you knew it was dirty why did you put it on? "
" ... "
" ... "
" No reason. " Vegeta shrugged.
" HA! " Chi-Chi scoffed at him.
The ouji smirked, " Say, Kakarrotto, since Onna's ablility to prepare delicious food has been impaired by her
sudden blindness, how would you like me, your little buddy, to cook this year's thanksgiving feast, hmm? " Vegeta grinned
evilly.
Goku laughed, " Little Veggie I said it before and I will say it A-gain. You don't know how to cook and even if you
did you couldn't hold a candle to Chi-chan in the "yummy-food-creating" section. "
" How would you know that? You've never seen me cook before. " the prince said as-a-matter-of-factly.
" Veggie's got a point, but still-- "
" I can cook/bake circles around ANYTHING Onna can make! " Vegeta boasted, " Just give me a chance, eh? "
" Well?... " Goku scratched his head, then grinned, " OH-KAY! "
" Heh. " Vegeta instantly zipped out to the kitchen and began dashing around; taking out different ingredients and
tools and mixing together batters so fast only Goku could almost capture his movements. The larger saiyajin watched in
awe at the little ouji who was now performing things Goku had seen Chi-Chi do in the kitchen every day but at lightning
speed and in bulk. Vegeta suddenly screeched to a halt infront of the kitchen table as the smoke cleared, " TA-DA! "
" Uhhhhhhhhh.... " Goku just stared at the massive amount of pastries Vegeta had just created in complete shock. A
drool droplet fell out of the side of his mouth and onto Chi-Chi's shoe.
" Eew. " she felt the wet drool on her foot and shook it off, " What happened? "
" So, Kaka-chan. What do you think? " Vegeta said boastfully, then watches as Goku waddled past him and stared at
the mountain of food on the table dreamily. Goku reached for a muffin from the large variety of food and tossed it in
his mouth, cautiously chewing it. His eyes widened and he swallowed, then looked down at Vegeta in surprise.
" Veggie.... " Goku said w/big sparkily eyes, " NEVER EVER LEAVE ME AGAIN! " he squealed, grabbing the ouji and
squeezing him tightly, " I didn't think it was POSSIBLE, but that muffin was EVEN BETTER THAN CHI-CHAN'S!! " he hugged
tighter. Vegeta's face glowing bright red.
Chi-Chi's shoulder's slumped to their sides and her jaw hung open, " Buh buh buh buh, BETTER?! THAN _MINE_!? "
" Mmm! Chi-chan try one Veggie's yummy muffins they're so GOOD! " Goku said, handing her one while still hugging
the little ouji.
Chi-Chi sniffed it suspicously, then took a bite out of it and froze. She chewed it a couple times and gulped,
::Holy beef this IS better than my own!! But that's IMPOSSIBLE!!!:: Chi-Chi turned back to the two saiyajins, who were
still in the middle of a rather long hug. Her bottom left eyelid flinched, " Something tells me, I'm in trouble. "

1:14 AM 10/28/02
END OF PART ONE!
Vegeta: (grinning) OOoh, Onna IS in trouble. [rubs his hands together evilly] (to Chu) Say, you wouldn't happen to be nice
for a change and let her stay blind forever, wouldja?
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) Vedge, how is that (in the vague-est sense of the word) "nice"?
Vegeta: It's nice for me, I can tell you that much. (smirks)
Chuquita: (sighs) (blinks suddenly) Say, where's Son?
Vegeta: (looks around) How should _I_ know where Kakarrotto is every second of the day!!
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) Well you are a 'tiny' bit "obsessed" with him.
Vegeta: (gawks) I am NOT obsessed with Kakarrotto! He is nothing more than merely the object of my attention and the center
of my daily schedule everyday.
Chuquita: (confused) And how is that different?
Goku: (from above them; still in his wet-suit) HI VEGGIE!
Vegeta: [looks up to see Goku swimming through the air] Kakarrotto, WHAT ARE YOU _DOING_!?
Goku: I'm after the great white whale, Veggie!
Chuquita: Umm, Son-kun. You're not gonna find any whales up there. You're not gonna find ANY fish out of water.
?????: *FWWWWWWWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!*
Goku: THAR SHE BLOWS!
[a giant white whale comes swimming through the air above the audiance; Chu & Veggie's jaws drop to the floor]
Goku: QUICK VEGGIE! I'LL HARPOON HIM! [holds his hand out expecting Veggie to hand him something]
Vegeta: ...uh... (blinks) [looks down to his left to see a large harpoon] Here? [hands it to Goku]
Goku: (sweetly) Why thank you little Veggie! [turns to whale] YAHH!!! [harpoons it]
Chuquita: AHH! SON-SAN NO!!!
[candy instantly flies out of the while and all over the audiance]
Goku: ARG! I GOT 'IM!
Chuquita: [does a double-take at the while, which has now suddenly become a piñata of its former self] Now this has got to
be one of the most bizarre Corners EVER.
Vegeta: (staring blankly) I'm going to have to agree with you on that, Chu. [watches Son collect the candy from the 'whale'
and carry it back to the desk; then begin to eat it]
Chuquita: (nods) (suddenly grins at Veggie) You know that notebook I doodled "Kaka-germs" and "All Aboard" in before I
decided to turn them into fic-form? Well I think I've finally doodled the most bizarre story EVER to come out of my head.
Well, up to NOW, anyway.
Vegeta: (sweatdrops) Something tells me it's not fun.
Chuquita: No! It is. (I'm almost done doodling it) (to audiance) Fic ideas that I sometimes deem too bizarre or too
imagery-reliant usually end up in comic-strip form. My newest one I'm drawing I have to give some credit to Nene for the
comic's idea though. Back when I had the "reviewer request Corner" thing she gave an idea for a fic where Son & Veggie
wake up in a bed together nakee and Son's stomach's bothering him and Veggie thinks Son is somehow *cough* pregnant. I
don't write any yaoi stuff but I liked this idea so I was able to move stuff around so that you can tell at the beginning
that there was no possible way for it to have happened (Goku's still wearing his boxers when he pulls the covers off in
the hotel) and I was able to explain for why several strips later his stomach bloated out (he was allergic to something he
ate at Veggie's birthday party; where they got knocked out at then woke up in the hotel) but the really fun part was the
HUGE dream-sequence thing I did where we go into Goku's head while he's asleep and dreaming. I even made up 5 chibi
"fusion-babies" that appear in his dream-land. 4 boys. 1 girl. None of them have names except the girl who I called Kayka
which I was only able to think of cuz that's what we called Son-kun that time I used the B.B.O.A.S to change him into a
girl in the Corner a while ago. (to Veggie) And you know what?
Vegeta: What?
Chuquita: (grins) Making up your own fusion-babies is fun! A couple of 'um look a little bit like Gogeta and Vejitto too.
It gets kinda sad at the end though. (sighs) Actually it gets sad as soon as Goku finds out he's really dreaming up all
these kids (who, because I wanted to avoid the yaoi thing, don't even end up existing in reality or ever being born at the
end of the story) along with his own cheerful version of Veggie his mind made up. He's even sadder once he does wake up,
then feels better cuz he remembers he's going to have the fusion-babies anyway (saiyajin can breed in litters) then feels
bad again at the end (which I still have yet to doodle) when he and the doctors find out he's only bloated due to an allergy
and isn't having any babies at all. 'Course the really detail-catching readers figured that out at the very beginning due to
Son-kun's boxers.
Goku: (sniffles while stuffing his face) Poor comic-strip me, that's HORRIBLE! Thinking he's gonna get his very own lil
Veggie-babies and then ends up not getting any at all. *sniffle* I'd like some of my own little Veggie-babies. [looks over
at Veggie w/big sparkily eyes]
Vegeta: (flatly) Not a chance.
Goku: (pouts) Ohh.
Chuquita: I was thinking about putting this comic to fic-form like those other two, but even if I do it won't be till I'm
done with the other fics on my list. OH! Speaking of the future fics I've decided for the next episode-parody I'm going to
parody ep.288 "You're late Son Goku! Everyone's Partying!". (to Son) It SCREAMS the word "parody".
Goku: (grins) That's the episode where Veggie does something nice-n-sweet!
Vegeta: (ignores him; glowing bright red)
Chuquita: Also! A special reminder that Vejitto's making his first dub appearance at the end of this week! So stay tuned
to whatever channel you get the show on and look for him!
Goku: Hee! Even without 5 imaginary fusion-babies I STILL have my Ji-chan and Goggie! (cheers) HOORAY FOR THE FUSION-BABIES!
Vegeta: (sweatdrops) Oh boy....
Chuquita: See you in Part 2 of "Eye Spy" everybody! (waves)
Goku: Scientists say chocolate is good for the heart! [shoves a mouthful of candy in his mouth]
Vegeta: (grumbles) Those same scientists also say it gives you bad headaches.
Goku: [shoves some of the candy in Veggie's mouth] Eat and be merry little Veggie!
Vegeta: (confused) Mery? Who's Mery?
Goku: (grins) BYE BYE EVERYONE! SEE YOU LATER!
Vegeta: "Mery?"...huh....
