Quote of the Week: -from dbz ep 289 "Grandpa Goku! I'm Pan!"

Goku: Pan!
Pan: (crying)...got eaten by dogs!
Goku: Well, well...
Goku: Okay, okay. look, Grandpa's giving you his ice cream, so don't cry anymore.

Chuey's Corner:
Goku: (licking a large popsicle) ...
Vegeta: (glances over at him momentarily.
Goku: Would Veggie like my ice cream? (happily holds it out towards him)
Vegeta: (goes red) GAH? NOT AFTER YOU LICKED IT ALREADY!
Chuquita: (to audiance) Welcome to the fic everyone! Summer is soon approaching!
Goku: It's the 21st or 22nd of June, right?
Chuquita: I think so...
Vegeta: (grumbles) At least when he gave the kaka-girl/chibi-onna his ice cream he hadn't eaten any of it yet.
Chuquita: For those wondering, Videl having her first child occurs in this fic. Pan herself is kind of a plothole; having already pre-existed several years ago only to completely disappear off the face of the fic-universe somewhere after "Plushie".
Vegeta: (sweatdrops) How can you completely forget a character that way!
Chuquita: Hey, Toriyama completely forgot Launch, and he used her a lot more than I used to use Pan.
Goku: (sniffles) Poor Launch..
Chuquita: Also, for those wondering what happened with Piccolo Sr, his side-story continues into this fic as well, where he meets up with his son, Dende, and Mr. Popo at Kami's Lookout.
Vegeta: What about my parents?
Chuquita: (grins) Two fics from now they'll be back and sent on a hunt for the dragonballs. If they can find them within a week and make their wish by then, they'll be able to stay!
Goku: YAY! My Toussan and Kaasan! (wags tail) I missed them.
Chuquita: However, that plot isn't in this story.
Goku: (pouts) Ohh..
Chuquita: BUT we have lots of other stuff.
Goku: That's right :)
Chuquita: (to audiance) And now on with the fic!

Summary: Goku's going to be a grandpa, and Chi-Chi is thrilled; especially after she finds out its a girl. Unfortunately for her, Gohan and Videl are terrified when Chi-Chi offers to be the official babysitter while they're at work, and the couple desperately seeks a babysitter in Pan's grandfathers instead. Meanwhile, Veggie attempts to kick Turles out of his house, seeing his previous "Veggietine's Day" stunt as the last straw. However it isn't going to be that easy. And Piccolo finally meets his father again. But Kami isn't too trusting of Piccolo Sr's appearance, and neither is Dende.
Part One Chapter Titles: Back to Earth l Labor l Veggie doesn't do well with Goku's dream-world l To the Hospital! l He's a ssj! l Lookout l Fear the Hospital l It's a Girl! l Her name ISN'T Chi-Chi Jr l Quality Time l Piccolo Senor! l Sr and Jr l Babysitters l Bodily Fluids l Veggie's Attempt to Kick Turles out of Capsule Corp l
" I can't believe you! You were supposed to follow us directly back home! " Chi-Chi exclaimed in shock as Goku stood
before her still in his bodyguard uniform. Vegeta was off the side leaning against the newly-landed Capsule 3 and whistling
cooly to himself.
" But Chi-chan we did, we just, took the scenic route. " Goku tried to explain.
" The scenic route. " she replied tone-dumb.
" What Kakarrotto means is that while we DID follow you, Onna, we made a larger orbital around you, taking the same
course only further out. " Vegeta explained simply, " Sort of like how the Earth's orbit is shorter than that of Mars but
is basically taking the same trip. What took you a few hours just happened to take us four days. "
" It SHOULD have taken you only TWO days to get back at the most! You don't think I know how long it takes you to get
to and from your ouji-world! " Chi-Chi walked up to him.
" Well you can't be too mad at us; afterall if you knew that then you also knew by letting Kakarrotto ride home with
me it would give us ample more time together. " Vegeta smirked.
Chi-Chi cocked an eyebrow.
" Platonic-time. " he quickly inserted, nervous.
" Of course. Perish the thought that you two would be breaking the five most important rules on your little trip
home. " Chi-Chi uttered sarcastically.
" Exactly! " Vegeta nodded, " And if such things WERE to happen I can assure you that I, the great and powerful
saiyajin no ouji, would be the one in charge of things. " he smirked.
" Not in this lifetime. " she narrowed her eyes at him.
" And what about the possible-future? "
" That was a fluke. " she snorted.
" Uh-huh. Well you see Onna, I plan to pretty much make the majority of that, ah, interesting future, come true;
my planet's been restored, and Kakarrotto can now speak my native tongue; all I need now is a super-powered spaceship and the
rest of our species wished back to life. " he folded his arms, " BWAHAHA! It'll be just like the possible-future; only
platonic. And Kakarrotto will be my bodyguard, not my oujo. "
" Traveling through outer space with Veggie will be FUN! " Goku gushed.
" See? " Vegeta pointed to the larger saiyajin with a grin.
" Lovely. " Chi-Chi said dryly, then turned to Goku, " Have you just accidentally forgotten about the little thing
called your family or did the Ouji cloud your mind with thoughts of warm plush beds and fancy orange capes? "
" It's not like we're going to go NOW, Onna. There's so much to do first. " Vegeta said cheerfully, " Hai,
Kakarrotto? "
" Hai, Veggie! " Goku wagged his tail.
" Besides Onna, due to that delayed yet sudden growth spurt all the demi-saiyajins experianced recently; your
younger kaka-spawn can now easily take care of himself. "
Goten walked by happily; now half the size of Goku instead of a third, " Hi Toussan hi Kaasan hi Veggie-san! " he
chirped, " I'm going over to Trunks's house, he just got a playstation portable! "
" Have fun. " Chi-Chi smiled, " And call me if you stay for dinner. "
" K, Kaasan! " Goten called back, then flew off into the sky.
" Wow, things are going to get very con-fusing around here once he gets to be my size. " Goku sweatdropped.
" Eh, no matter, I can tell the difference between you. " Vegeta shrugged.
" Aww, nan batte pu dei, Veggie! " the larger saiyajin gave him a hug.
" Momo zee itti la senga to pro bal, Kakay. " Vegeta patted him on the back.
" Don't you have someplace to BE right now, Ouji? " Chi-Chi twitched, already able to tell this "Goku-and-the-Ouji
can-now-converse-in-a-foreign-language-she-herself-does-not-know" thing was going to be annoying.
" Nowhere that I can't bring my favorite peasant along with me. " the smaller saiyajin grinned.
Goku purred and started to lean forward in his hug, now looming over the little ouji.
Vegeta froze in place and promptly slipped out of the hold for fear of Goku leaning too far and knocking him onto
his back; a position that would be fatal to his semehood, " Well, I think I'll be off to Capsule Corp now to inform Bulma of
my return. "
" Yes, PLEASE go have a talk with the person you ARE in a sexual relationship with and who is NOT Goku-san. "
Chi-Chi said tiredly.
" Can I go too? " Goku asked, watching the little ouji intently.
" No, you've spent more than enough "quality time" in ouji-land this past month and a half. " Chi-Chi huffed.
" Of course you can, Kakarrotto. " the smaller saiyajin smiled, capsulizing the Capsule 3.
" YAY! " Goku cheered, running past Chi-Chi and after Vegeta. He slowed to a walk when he caught up to him.
" Oh my God...he wasn't asking my permission at all.. " Chi-Chi said slowly in shock, " He was asking for
the OUJI'S! " she went blue with horror. Goku tried to reach for Vegeta's hand only to have the ouji freak out and fold his
arms while flushing red. Chi-Chi blinked, " I have a phone call to make. "

" ▫BRING▫...▫BRING▫... "
" Gohan could you get that? " Videl called from the other room.
Gohan looked over at the phone a foot away from him, " Sure. " he picked it up, " Hello? "
" Gohan! " Chi-Chi shouted.
" O.O " his eyes shot wide open and he instantly slammed the phone down on the hook.
Videl poked her head into the living room and sweatdropped at the display, " Who was it? " she gawked.
" Kaasan. " he squeaked out.
" Well, what did she want? " Videl asked, sitting down next to him.
" I don't know. " Gohan came out of it, " I just heard her voice and instinctively hung up out of fea..AACK!
KAASAN! " he quickly grabbed the phone and redialed against his will.
" Bad memories, huh? " Videl sweatdropped.
" There's a reason I've been hiding out from her the past couple fics or so. " Gohan laughed nervously, " Hello,
Kaasan? "
" Oh Gohan thank goodness you're there! " Chi-Chi exclaimed, " Something TERRIBLE's happened! " she said in a panic.
Gohan braced himself, worried, " W..what is it? "
" Your Toussan's learned SAIYAGO and spent a month and a half alone with the Ouji and now he's asking the OUJI for
permission and not ME and, and, you need to help me keep that evil little Ouji from WINNING! " Chi-Chi cried out, " He's
trying the same evil plot as before only this time he's substituting "bodyguard" for "oujo"! You have to help me Gohan you're
such a brilliant young man! "
" Ohhh, " Videl groaned suddenly, lurching forward, " G..Gohan..I think, I think I'm going into labor.. " her voice
strained as she leaned off the side of the couch.
The demi-saiyajin looked over at her in fright, " Kaasan I gotta call you back. " he hung up.
" NANI! What kind of answer is that! " Chi-Chi gasped in shock.
Gohan helped Videl up and quickly rushed out of the house. He looked at the car for a moment, then turned back to
Videl, " I can get us there faster if I fly. Will you be alright if I do? "
Videl cringed in pain, " GOHAN I DON'T CARE JUST HURRY! "
Gohan lept off the ground and flew determindly off in the direction of the Orange City hospital just 5 blocks from
their home.

" You know, " Goku said suddenly, breaking the silence as he and Vegeta walked down the road heading for West City,
" If your spaceship plan doesn't work out Veggie, we could always finish building that cottage by the river on Bejito-sei
and live there. " he smiled warmly, " We'd wake up every morning to the sun's rays cascading gently a-pon us through the
window in the roof..and it'd bother Veggie's eyes so he'd turn to the side and cover his head with all the blankets, " Goku
chuckled, " but then I'd nudge Veggie awake anyway and give him a goodmorning hug. Veggie'd smile back at me and after that
we would go outside and fish; and it wouldn't matter if we bathed or not cuz we'd be so soak 'n wet by the time we were done
fishing that it wouldn't even matter. Veggie'd cut the fishes up and cook them in some amazing new way that would be fun to
eat everytime. And then we'd go spar... " the larger saiyajin mused.
Vegeta waddled woodenly beside him now, his face red and a lump in his throat.
" We'd spar for hours on end, until we were so tired that we couldn't swing another punch. We'd take a pre-lunch
nap around then to get some of our strength back, and then we'd go hunt down our lunch in those woods just outside the city.
Veggie 'n I would eat our lunch together and go exploring. Maybe we'd even wander into some of the city shops and buy some
nice things for each other that we'd wrap up as dinner-time surprises. " Goku continued on, " Now for dinner, for dinner we
would go to all the FANCY resturants where they give you multiple spoons 'n forks 'n knives that you don't even use for
anything. Veggie 'n I would order the tastiest stuff on the menu, but no matter how tasty it was it could never compare to
Veggie's cooking which is the best in the whole universe! Just like my Veggie! " Goku sighed.
" ..THAT'S ENOUGH, oh-kay! " Vegeta exclaimed, bright red all over and holding his hands over his chest while his
tail thrashed about behind him. The ouji looked away, " Geez, I wasn't nearly this mushy with you when I explained MY vision
of our future. "
" Veggie? " Goku tilted his head.
" Y..you might as well draw a bunch of frilly non-platonic hearts around it! " he huffed, his whole body shaking.
" Doesn't Veggie wanna hear a-bout the rest of our day? " Goku asked.
" N..NO! " Vegeta squinted his eyes shut, " It's too MUSHY, it caves in my naturally seme core! " he took a deep
breath to try and calm himself down, panting heavily at first but then slowing down to a normal pace, " Why would you want
us to live in some cozy mushy little cottage by a river anyway? " the ouji fought the flush off his face.
" Well, because it would be like where I lived when I was little; before Bulma and the dragon balls, before
everything. " Goku said honestly, " I like where I lived then, Veggie. I liked my little house near the woods by the river.
It was so calm and peaceful...but it was lonely. " he frowned, " It was such a terrible feeling. "
" I know what you mean. " Vegeta sulked, reflecting on several things in his own mind.
" But I know, " the larger saiyajin grabbed Vegeta's hands, stunning him, " I know that if Veggie were with me I'd
never be lonely again! "
" ... " ▫
" ... " ▫
" Uh... " Vegeta stood there, frozen in place. He nervously looked around, trying to avoid the intense gaze of the
peasant directly infront of him, " HEY! " Vegeta said suddenly, freeing his hands, " Race you to Capsule Corp! " he
announced, then rushed off.
Goku grinned, " HAHAHAHA! YAY! I luv races, Veggie! " he laughed, running after him.

" WOW... " Goten said in awe as he watched the psp screen infront of him, " Trunks this is so cool! " he hit the o
button and sent his car flying across the screen.
" AND it plays movies! " Trunks held up another mini-disk.
" OH MY..RIGHT NOW! " Bulma's voice gasped from the other room. She bounded into the living room with her hand over
the phone, " Trunks, Goten, Videl's going to have the baby. Gohan just called we're going to meet them, Chi-Chi, and Hercule
over at the hospital. "
" Can we take the helicopter? " Trunks asked, grinning.
" We're going to have to if we want to make it to Orange City in time. " she hung the phone up and got her coat on.
" YES! "
" Trunks, I want you to go get Mirai for me while I start the vehicle. Goten.. "
" ..where are you going? "
" ..and can we come too? "
Bulma jumped back suddenly to see Vejitto and Gogeta standing there, " How did you two..oh nevermind. We're going to
Orange City Hospital to see Videl have her baby and yes you can come if you want. "
" Wow, she is having the baby now? " Gogeta said, surprised.
" I wonder what that'd make us in re-lation to said baby? " Vejitto folded his arms, pondering.
" ...I'm not sure. "
" Neither am I. But let's go anyway! " the portara fusion grinned.
" Oh-kay Jitto! "

" HAHAHA! I'M WINNING! " Goku cheered as he raced down the street towards Capsule Corp; Vegeta a foot or so behind
him.
:Fine, I don't care if you happen to beat me in this Kakarrotto I feel safer behind you than having you behind me
any day.: Vegeta thought to himself nervously, then paused when he heard the sound of a distinctive helicopter too low to
the ground. He glanced upward to see one of Capsule Corp's latest creations; a silver helicopter with a red racing stripe,
lifting off of the roof, " Bulma? "
Goku skidded slowly to a halt and spun around to face Vegeta, " Hey Veggie why'd you stop..OH! "
They watched as the helicopter flew in the same direction the two saiyajins had come from.
" Oh that figures. " Vegeta muttered, annoyed, " We finally get home and the entire family flies off in the exact
direction we came from! " he slapped himself on the forehead, " Where could she possibly be going that would require her to
take the helicopter anyway? "
" Didn't you hear? Kakarrotto's going to be a grandfather. "
Goku and Vegeta's heads swerved to see Turles standing there on the front lawn.
" Hey there Seme and Uke, have a good ride home? "
" OOOH! LISTEN YOU.. " Vegeta started out, pointing at him.
" ..I am going to be a granpa! " Goku gasped, leaning overtop of Vegeta from behind in excitement.
" ! " Vegeta's body went bright red and numb, his arm stuck pointing forward while a blank expression covered his
face.
" Yup. I was going to go with the others but I sensed your kis so I figured, why now just wait for Kakarrotto and
Vegeta-san to get here and I'll simply catch up to the others with them. "
" Sounds like a plan! " Goku said cheerfully, " Thank you for telling us a-bout the baby, Turles. I do not think me
OR Veggie would've figured that one out. "
" Not your fault, Gohan and Videl haven't appeared regularly in quite a while. " Turles shrugged, " I feel its my
duty as the still semi-newest addition to our little group to inform you of important plot-points such as your
daughter-in-law giving birth. "
" HMMPH! " Vegeta snorted, " What they SHOULD do is come back regularly and replace YOU! I was doing just fine
earlier today outsmarting and outwitting Onna and I show up here to say hello to Bulma and YOU have the audacity to..to.. "
" ..I haven't done anything to you yet we're only 5 scenes in. " Turles shrugged.
" Oh...well, STOP MESSING WITH THE FOURTH WALL! I don't mess with it and neither should you! " Vegeta snapped, then
turned to Goku, " Come Kakarrotto. We'll TELEPORT out of here so Turles has to fly to the hosptial all by himself. " he
smirked, placing his hand on Goku's shoulder and his other hand on his forehead.
" Veggie that's not very nice. " Goku pouted.
" Neither is calling him calling me an Uke. "
" But Veggie how is it bad? I don't even know what it means? " the larger saiyajin said, confused.
" You don't NEED to know. Its unimportant. " Vegeta nodded, searching out Gohan's ki.
" By the way did I mention I can go ssj now? " Turles grinned wickedly, bursting into ssj.
Vegeta's eyes widened in fear, " HURRY KAKARROTTO HURRY! " he yelped, and with that they both teleported out of the
area.
Turles shrugged, " Oh well, I'll just catch up to the helicopter. "

" Ah, Earth. " Piccolo Sr said as he walked through the forest just outside of where the passageway had led him,
" We meet again. " he searched out the ki of Mr. Popo and Korin, " Looks like I'm not that far from the lookout after all. "
the older namekian smirked, " And as much as I'd like to re-begin my plots to take over this planet I think it would be best
if I were to drop by the lookout first. " Piccolo Sr nodded, heading off in the direction of Korin Tower and Kami's Lookout.

" ▫ZZTTT▫ " Goku and Vegeta reappared just outside the hospital where Gohan was standing anxiously.
Goku looked up at the large Orange City Hospital sign stationed infront of the building. The word "Hospital" suddenly
grew large and turned red while a black fog covered the area around the building and lightning crashed in the background
while screams of terror and wicked laughter exploded from the hospital windows, " EEEP! " he jumped up and glomped onto
Vegeta tightly from behind, shaking, " OHVEGGIE! " Goku cried out.
" ... " Vegeta's face went bright red at the larger saiyajin who had practically just mounted him.
" Toussan! Vegeta! " Gohan said, walking up to them only to sweatdrop, " Oh yeah, I forgot about Toussan's fear of
needles, operating tools, and hospitals in general. "
" So did I. " Vegeta squeaked out, trying to nervously pry Goku off his back while avoiding anything non-platonic.
He eventually got Goku off of him several tries later and then gasped for air, " Will you calm down! " he looked over his
shoulder at Goku.
" I do not like hospitals, Veggie... " Goku gulped, " Or having needles injected into various parts of my body.. "
" They're not GOING to inject YOU, Kakarrotto. It's Videl who's having the baby. " Vegeta dusted himself off, " Hey,
waitaminute, " he turned to Gohan, " Why are you out here instead of in the waiting room. "
" ...mom's here. " Gohan said.
" So? " Goku blinked.
" And she's brought her incredibly long list of baby-names; all of which include the word "Chi". "
" Ah, point taken. " Vegeta replied.
Gohan looked around nervously, " For some reason, as scary as she can be when she's mad, she's sometimes even
scarier when she's overly-happy. I'm waiting for Bulma and the others to get here before I go back in. I'm not sure I want to
face her alone. "
" Well Kakarrotto and I don't mind helping you until then. " Vegeta said, then smirked, " Besides if there's anyone
who can bring down Onna from a good mood, that would be me. "
Gohan sweatdropped, " I didn't ask to depress her, I just want help calming her down. "
" Oh. " Vegeta said, disappointed, " I can do that too. " he said, following Gohan back inside only to pause when he
saw Goku still hadn't come after them and was staring at the hospital doors as if they were the gateway to hfil, " Kakay? "
Vegeta walked back out, watching him with concern.
" Veggie I don't wanna go in the hospital. " Goku gulped.
" But they're not going to do anything to YOU.. "
" ..that is what Veggie thinks! But you just wait, I will go in and then need to use the restroom only to be captured
by some ren-e-gade doctor who decides I need shots in every part of my body even the parts needles aren't supposed to go in!"
" That won't happen. " the ouji said comfortingly, " I'll stick with you the whole time. We won't seperate. "
" ... " Goku held out his hand.
" ▫Twitch▫ " Vegeta twitched, knowing what the large peasant wanted, " Kakarrotto I'm not going to hold your.. "
" ... " the saiyain's eyes watered up.
" Fine. You win. " Vegeta said, holding his own hand out and letting Goku happily take it and come inside, purring,
" Man, if I knew we were going to a public place as soon as we got back to Earth I would've at least changed back into my
training uni.. " he looked down to see he was suddenly back in said training uniform. Vegeta turned to Goku to see the larger
saiyajin now back in his orange gi as well, " -uhhh. "
" Thank you for holding my hand in the big scary needle-wielding hospital, Veggie. " Goku chirped.
" You're...welcome? "

" Ohhhhh, ohhhhhhhh, OHHHHHhhhh.. " Gohan nervously paced back and forth in the hospital waiting room while the rest
of the group waited.
Chi-Chi sat there with her arms folded while watching Vegeta with a glare in her eyes and a strip of duct-tape over
her mouth. Vegeta whistled innocently with his hands behind his head as he leaned against the back of the wall his chair was
propped up before.
Goku sat there, calmed down somewhat, yet still getting awkward vibes from the unusual cleanliness of the room. The
fact that it still smelled like hospital didn't help.
Turles sat on the other side of Goku juggling a lemon, a small Goku plushie, and a small Vegeta plushie. He stopped
using both hands and went just to his right while juggling faster.
" Ohh! " Goku applauded the skill while laughing, entertained.
Vegeta looked over and sweatdropped at just what Turles was juggling.
Goten and Trunks sat in the corner; Trunks now playing the psp and Goten watching.
Vejitto glanced over at the game as well, trying to keep his own nervousness about being in the hospital at bay.
Gogeta was eating a popsicle.
Raditsu flipped through one of the magazines in the waiting room. He glanced over at Bulma, " Do you think I should
get my own car? "
" Hmm? " Bulma glanced over at the open car magazine.
Hercule looked just as nervous as Gohan, only he was sitting down instead of pacing back and forth.
Mirai sat there unsure of what to do.
Bura took another sip from her can of iced tea, " Amazing its so cold in here when it can be so hot outside. What
an air-conditioner. "
" Mr. Gohan Son? " a doctor walked into the room.
" YES? " Gohan said suddenly, turning to face her.
" Congradulations! " she smiled, " It's a girl. "
" HAHA! Thank you doct.. " Gohan reached to shake her hands when Chi-Chi ripped the duct-tape off her mouth and
lept onto her chair in triumph.
" WHOOHOO! TAKE THAT OUJI! " she pointed down at Vegeta, " You may strike me down but I've got a
replacement-in-training! "
" GAAH? Okaasan! She's my daughter, not yours! " Gohan nearly fell over, then paused, " My daughter...HAHA I'm a
daddy! " he grinned, " OH! Videl! Where is..I mean what room.. "
" Just down the hall in room 924. " the doctor smiled.
" Gotcha..I mean, thank you Ma'am for all your help. " he shook her hands again, then bolted from the room, leaving
the rest of the group stunned and Chi-Chi doing a victory dance ontop of her chair.
Vegeta reached his arm out almost to trip her off the chair, then pulled it away, " Eh, too easy and slightly cruel."
he decided against it.
" HOOHA! " Chi-Chi lept off her chair, " I'm going after Gohan to see little Chi-Chi Jr! Meet you guys there! " she
said happily, dashing out of the room.
" JUST BECAUSE ITS A GIRL DOESN'T MEAN THEY'LL LET YOU NAME IT AFTER YOURSELF! " Vegeta called out after her, then
glanced down at his own stomach for and felt a small ping of sadness which he quickly shook off, " Bah...babies. "

" Awww, she's beautiful. " Gohan said as he sat down in a chair next to the bed Videl lay on while he held their
baby in a blanket.
Videl smiled weakily, " Isn't she. "
The rest of the group slowly made their way in; Chi-Chi trying to push past various others to get inside ahead of
them causing those pushed multiple sweatdrops.
" Hm, " Vegeta glanced over Gohan's shoulder at the baby, " Gohan's inherited dark-kaka-blue hair, Videl's eyes, and
Onna's dark-gray/almost-black eye-color. I'd say she has a semi-semi-good chance of escaping Onna's twisted mental
manipulation. "
" HEY! " Chi-Chi exclaimed, pushing the little ouji to the side, " Aww, " she clasped her hands together, " Hello
there little Chi-Chi Jr, say hello to your Obaasan- "
" Actually, her name isn't Chi-Chi Jr. " Videl sweatdropped.
" HUH? " Chi-Chi blinked in shock.
" HAH! " Vegeta pointed at Chi-Chi in the same way she'd pointed at him earlier, then paused, " No, wait, " he
grabbed the nearby counter and pushed it over to where he'd just stood, then hopped ontop of it and THEN pointed at
Chi-Chi, " HAH! "
" ...▫twitch▫. "
" Her name is Panera. It means "bread". " Gohan explained, smiling.
" Panera...well, I can live with that. " Chi-Chi decided, causing Gohan to sweatdrop. She bent down to the baby
again, " Isn't that right Pan-Pan! "
An even larger sweatdrop appeared on the side of Gohan's head.
" Oh? " Goku peered past Chi-Chi at the baby, then grinned and made a funny face.
" Aha! " the demi-demi-saiyajin happily cried out while Goku wagged his tail.
" See? The child recognizes Onna as a threat and Kakarrotto as "good". " Vegeta smirked.
" Shuddup Ouji, she was just born she's not developed enough to tell those sorts of things. " Chi-Chi muttered, then
got an idea and clasped her hands together, " You know what would be a good idea, Goku-sa? If WE had another baby! "
" NO WAY! " both Vegeta and Bura shouted at once.
Chi-Chi twitched at them and Goku blinked cluelessly.
Vegeta zipped between Chi-Chi and Goku, " Kakarrotto isn't giving you any more of his seeds, Onna! "
:Interesting: Turles thought to himself as he watched the display.
" You can't stop me in these sort of matters, Ouji. " Chi-Chi said, surprised, " You're not the one in a sexual
relationship with Goku-san. "
" Of course not! " the ouji's face went bright red, " I have no intention of entering that type of relationship with
Kakarrotto! " he tried to calm down, then smirked, " What I'm saying is Kakarrotto's way too powerful to perform such things
with you. There's too wide a gap in your ki; he'd most likely cause you bodily harm in some way. " Vegeta shrugged.
:Ah, I get it.: Turles smirked knowingly.
" Oh he would NOT! " Chi-Chi stomped her foot down.
" Come Kakay, let's get out of the "big scary hospital" and go someplace fun. "
" "Fun", Veggie? " Goku's eyes widened.
" Mmm-hmm! "
" OH-KAY! " Goku glomped onto the smaller saiyajin, then picked him up and opened the window in the room, " I'm
taking Veggie out to have fun, everybody! Congradulations on your baby, Gohan and Videl! " he waved to them, then blasted
off out through the window and into the sky.
" Heh-heh-heh-heh-heh, I know what Vegeta-san wants.. " Turles grinned plottingly, " And I actually feel up to
helping him get it, if he happens to ask for my assistance. "
Gohan looked over at him, confused, " What? "

" Hmm.. " Bulma sat back in her chair in the kitchen, taking another sip of her coffee before putting it down. The
group had dispersed back to their homes within the hour. However, Goku and Vegeta still hadn't come back from wherever they
had left the hospital for, " Mirai? " she glanced over at the demi-saiyajin also sitting at the table.
Mirai plucked a cheese-doodle out of the bowl, " Yeah? "
" Do you think I don't spend enough time with Vegeta? I mean, have I really been that neglectful of him lately? "
" ...do you want an honest answer, or for me to just soften the blow. "
" Honest. "
The demi-saiyajin from the alternate future sighed, " No, I don't think you spend enough time with him apart from
fixing his gravity room when something explodes or comforting him when he's confused about Son-san. " he paused, " I don't
think you use work to get away from him, or as an excuse not to be with him, it's more like you know you feel bad about
leaving him alone but the fact that Son's always there to take care of him in your place sort of lessens the guilt. " Mirai
tried to explain, " You want to be with him, but your job keeps taking a higher priority. You only really stopped when he
was kidnapped and we had to rescue him from Brolli. You spent a few days together and then you went back to work like
normal. "
Bulma slumped in her chair and sighed, then suddenly got an idea, " AH! I know! What if I take Vegeta with me to
work! I have a meeting later, I'll see if he wants to come. "
" ... " Mirai sweatdropped, " I was thinking more along the lines of you taking a day off and taking Toussan out for
dinner or something, but... "
" Its decided then! I'll ask him as soon as he gets home. " she nodded determindly.
" Hahahahaha, " voices laughed behind the front door. Goku took the key out and opened the door, coming inside with
Vegeta who was holding a large stuffed neon-blue fish in his arms while they both ate ice-cream cones and wore brand new
sunglasses.
:When did Son-kun get a key to the house: Bulma blinked, surprised.
" HI everybody! " Goku said happily as they entered, " Veggie 'n I went to the beach! "
" And Kakay won me THIS on the squirt-gun game! " Vegeta held up the fish plushie which was nearly half the little
ouji's size, " He beat 14 other people in one shot to win this thing. I'm very proud of him. " he smirked boastfully.
" Aww- I would do ANYTHING for my VEGGIE! " Goku hugged the smaller saiyajin tightly. Vegeta let out a little purr.
" Ah hahahaha... " Bulma laughed nervously.
" Oh! And guess what Veggie did? Guess! " the larger saiyajin said excitedly.
" Uh, what? " Bulma blinked.
" Veggie built a super-big sandcastle and won FIRST PLACE! " Goku gushed, " Show 'um your medal, Veggie! "
" Here hold my fish. " Vegeta held it out.
" Oh-kay! " Goku took the fish.
Vegeta stuck his ice-cream cone in his mouth while reached for his pants-pocket and pulled out a
"First Place: Number 1" blue ribbon, " I'm going to put it in my room on the wall! "
" We took pictures of Veggie's sandcastle and our trip using disposable cameras, but we haven't gotten the pictures
developed yet. " Goku explained, " But even if we weren't able to, we still have the memories to treasure and share- "
" Mmm-hmm! " Vegeta took another lick of his strawberry ice-cream.
" ... " Bulma and Mirai exchanged worried glances.
" So, I, guess you guys had a good time? " Bulma spoke up.
" YEAH! Going to the beach made me forget all about how scary the hospital was! " Goku smiled.
" And it made me forget all about the crazy idea of wanting to...ah...haha, hai! " Vegeta caught himself and started
to laugh nervously.
" Wanting to what? " she asked.
" Nothing! It's nothing, really! " the ouji backed up, " Infact, I..I'm going to go upstairs and use the bathroom,
get cleaned up, that sorta thing! " he then turned and headed up the stairs.
" Can I help wash Veggie? " the larger saiyajin chirped, following him.
Vegeta's face went red, " NO! But you can guard the door so no one else tries to disturb me. "
Goku saluted him, " You got it Veggie! "

" Hmm... "
" ▫Tap▫tap▫tap▫tap▫tap▫tap▫ " Bulma's fingers bounced about the keyboard as she stared at the screen. The scene
from upstairs earlier had jarred her so she'd decided to distract herself by performing some tests on one of her most
recent inventions. She refused to get uptight and paranoidly jealous like Chi-Chi, or even worse Brolli. So simply letting
it go was the easiest answer she could come up with, " But is it the best one...? "
" ▫Creak▫ "
Bulma looked over her shoulder to see Vegeta halfway down the stairs, his new sunglasses gone, " Hey. " she smiled,
watching him climb down a few more steps into the lab, " So, how've you been? With all that rush to the hospital and then
you two flying off right in the middle of it all I never got to ask you? "
" I've been good. " the ouji smiled contently.
" You look good, not nearly as stressed as usual. "
The ouji walked over to her, " A month away from the two people who drive me absolutely crazy questioning my own
motives'll do that ya. "
" Well I'm still glad you're back. I missed you. " she patted a nearby chair that went to another computer. Vegeta
sat down in it.
" Really? " the small saiyajin blinked.
" Of course! " Bulma gasped, " Why wouldn't I? "
" To be honest I didn't even know if you would notice just how long I was gone. You're barely around anymore anyway."
Vegeta said quietly.
" But Son-kun is. "
He looked up at her.
" And I really, genuinely think that you two...where is Son-kun? " Bulma interupted herself.
" Onna called him up, he went back to her home. " Vegeta visibly sulked.
" HER house? " Bulma mouthed.
" It's not really Kakarrotto's home is it? Shouldn't his home be somewhere he wants to be? Feels comfortable in?
Happy? "
" Vegeta? "
" We talked a lot; on Bejito-sei. We've been doing lots to talking in general. Kakarrotto told me earlier about
this little dreamhouse of his he wants to build on Bejito-sei. He's got the whole thing worked out in his head; from the
dimensions of the house to the layout of the rooms to everything. It all sounds so mushy but you can tell he's put a lot of
work into it; planning anyway. " he smiled wryly, " It's like his version of the possible-future spaceship; only its not
something big and shiny and impressive that can blast through the skies at speeds of titanic proportions; it's a house..a
mushy, cozy, comfortable little cottage by one of the major rivers on our homeplanet. And he wants me there with him. "
" Wow...there's something about Son-kun that I didn't know. " Bulma said, surprised.
Vegeta stared off into the lab, " There's a lot about Kakarrotto that you don't know. " he paused, then recanted,
" There's a lot about Kakarrotto that I don't know either. Some of it I'm afraid to find out. "
" Well, you can worry about that another time, hm? " Bulma tried to change the topic, " You know, I have a meeting
later on this evening. Would you like to come with me? "
" To work? " his eyes widened, " B..but you never let me come with you to any of those things. "
" Because you're technically not a fellow scientist or a businessman with a degree or someone with a massive amount
of material wealth. " she sweatdropped.
" HEY! Now that I have Bejito-sei back I can count that last one. " Vegeta huffed, folding his arms, " I just, can't
get to my money right now due to the current situation. "
" Anyway, you are very intelligent so I could probably pass you off as a guest or my personal secretary. " Bulma
decided.
" What about just telling them I'm your boyfriend. "
" Wouldn't fly. You can't just bring random members of your family to meetings when the others there know you have
no knowledge of the topic at hand or have any ability to affect its importance so you'd just be considered a waste of space."
" That's stupid. " he sat back in his chair, " If everyone else is going to be that way I might as well not go and
instead head over to Onna's house to try to save Kakarrotto and maybe take him out for dinner. He really likes those fancy,
expensive resturants. Makes him feel special. " the ouji mused.
" Aw, Vegeta I promise everyone isn't going to be that way. Besides, don't you want to see what I do all day when
I'm away from you and the lab? " Bulma offered.
" ...I have to admit I am a little curious. "
" Then you'll go? "
" Mm...oh-kay! " Vegeta smiled and shook her hand.
" ... " ▫
" ... " Bulma sweatdropped, " What about a kiss? "
" I've had multiple nightmares recently related to kissing so I'm currently trying to avoid it. " the ouji nodded.
" Uh-huh... " an even larger sweatdrop appeared on the side of her head.
" Well, I'm gonna get going now... " he trailed off.
" When you do, could you tell Son-kun I need to give him a checkup? He's way overdue for one. "
" You won't have to give Kakay a NEEDLE, will you? " Vegeta gulped, " You know how afraid of those he is. "
" He won't need any shots, oh-kay! " Bulma sweatdropped, " I just need a few samples of bodily fluids, none of which
need a needle in order for me to get to. "
" That's good to know. In that case I'll tell him as soon as he gets back from Onna's lair. " the small saiyajin
said, making his way back to the stairs but glancing for a moment at the wall of fluid samples; namely the ones with his
peasant's name across them, then turned and went back upstairs.

" Ah, the Lookout. " Piccolo Sr said as he landed down up on the edge, glancing around for any signs of life and
spotted Dende looking off into the distance on another end of the platform, " Greetings. " he announced, approaching the
younger namekian.
Dende turned to Piccolo Sr in surprised, " W..who are you! "
The older namekian smirked, " I am Piccolo Daimao Sr; father to Piccolo Jr and once ruler of Earth. "
" But, I thought Piccolo's father was dead. " Dende cocked an eyebrow, then caught sight of the ring hovering over
Piccolo Sr's head, " YOU ARE DE..mmph? " the older namekian slapped his hand over Dende's mouth.
" Quiet! " he snapped, then calmed down, " I cannot allow Enma to catch wind of me being in this world. " Sr took his
hand off Dende's mouth, " Are we clear on that? "
" ...yes. " Dende sighed tiredly in defeat, sensing Piccolo Sr's ki, while not as high as Piccolo Jr's, was easily
more than enough to beat the young guardian in battle.
" Now, who exactly are you? I sincerely doubt you're Kami. "
" I'm sort of the "new Kami" actually. " Dende sweatdropped, " My name is Dende, I'm from our homeplanet Nameksei. "
he shook Piccolo Sr's hand.
" A new guardian? Well you certainly seem more fit for the job than your predecessor. At least from what I can tell
from you so far. "
" Um, thank you? " Dende replied, unsure of exactly how to reply to that.
" Dende! " Mr. Popo called out, leaving the house while carrying a potted plant, " Mr. Popo cannot find Mr. Popo's
watering can! Does Dende know where Mr. Popo has left it? "
" Uhh...I think I put it in the storage closet after it rained yesterday. " the young guardian replied, only to see
the genie standing there suddenly frozen in fear, " Mr. Popo? "
" It's PICCOLO SENOR! Ohhhh! Mr. Popo has to warn Kami! KAMI! " the genie ran back inside, nearly dropping his plant
on the way.
" ... " Dende himself paled, " Piccolo's dad, why is Mr. Popo afraid of you? "
Piccolo Sr. only smirked.

" ... " Piccolo hovered there in the kitchen, deep in meditation. He normally would've chosen the
living room, however that room was directly next to the one where Mr. Popo kept his gardening supplies and since the genie
had been in the middle of going through it when Piccolo had originally come inside to meditate, he'd picked a different room
away from the noise Mr. Popo was inadvertently making.
" PICCOLOOOOOOOO! "
" AARGH! " the namekian hit the floor, his meditative state broken, " Yes Popo? " he twitched, getting up and
dusting himself off.
" Mr. Popo must speak to Kami! It is an emergancy! " the genie said, looking startled.
" Yes Mr. Popo. " Kami's voice said.
" HEY! " Piccolo interupted him, " There isn't anything you can't say to Kami that you can't say to me. Besides this
is my body he's sharing. "
" What about me? " Nail sweatdropped.
" Oh, Nail too. "
:They always forget about ME.: Nail mentally sighed.
The genie gulped, " Kami, "
Piccolo sweatdropped.
" Piccolo Sr has somehow escaped from otherworld and is outside on the Lookout right now! " Mr. Popo said.
" WHAT! " Kami gasped, " HOW CAN THIS BE! "
" You're so overdramatic. " Piccolo muttered, then turned back to the genie, intrigued, " My father's outside? "
" I WON'T HAVE ANY PART IN THIS! PICCOLO SPLIT ME OFF NOW! " Kami ordered.
" I'll split you off after my father and I compare our ki. " Piccolo said cooly.
" What's so bad about Piccolo's father? " Nail asked.
" Long story. It'd be best for me to tell you about it later than Kami; his view on the entire thing is sort of
skewed due to him technically creating my father by breaking him off of his body. " Piccolo explained as he headed for the
exit.
" So...that would mean Kami's technically both your uncle AND your grandfather? " Nail raised an eyebrow.
" Something like that. "
Kami stayed silent.
Piccolo opened the door to reveal his father standing across the way with a very confused Dende.
" Son. " Piccolo Sr. smirked calmly.
" Father. " Piccolo Jr replied, smirking as well.
" OOOH! I REFUSE TO STAND BY THIS WAY! PICCOLO SPLIT ME OFF! " Kami warned.
" You HAVE absorbed Kami. Interesting. " Piccolo Sr chuckled at the former guardian, then paused, " But how can you
split him off if he's permanently fused with you? "
" Split-form. But it cuts into my own ki so I can't perform it permanently. It lasts about an hour. " Piccolo
explained, then thrust his arms out, " HAAAAAAAAAAAA! " a second Piccolo split off of him, " There. Happy? "
" Very. " Kami said, glowering at Piccolo Sr. He marched up to the dead namekian, " I'm going inside to secure my
valuables and plot your demise. " he said stiffly, then turned around and marched back into the house.
" Wow, they don't get along very well together, do they? " Nail said, surprised.
" ...HAAAAAAAA! " Piccolo split him off as well.
" Oww! " Nail cried out as he hit the floor, " Hey, I didn't ask to be split off too! "
" It's for the best. " Piccolo said wisely.
" ... " Nail sweatdropped, " Uh-huh. "
" So father, " Piccolo turned to Piccolo Sr, " How did you escape otherworld? "
" I'd give you the details, but seeing as Kami would find out as soon as he's fused with you again, I sadly cannot
give them to you. I can however tell you that there's more ways than one to get out of hfil. " Piccolo Sr. explained,
" Speaking of which I've won over nearly half of Freeza's earnings through poker. I'm comfortably well-off. " he said
proudly.
" Impressive. "
" Why thank you. Say, as long as I'm settling in here for now, do you know how to play? " Sr asked.
" Not really. "
" Would you like to learn how? "
Piccolo shrugged, " Sure. " he said and the two of them went inside, " I could show you my chair from when I
ruled over the planet for two full months. "
" Ah, always liked those types of chairs. "

" WAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! "
" Shh! Panny shh its oh-kay. " Gohan tried to comfort the wailing baby in his arms while a tired Videl tried
unsuccessfully to sleep on the nearby couch.
Goku sat backwards on one of the kitchen chairs, watching them, " She cries just like you did as a baby, Gohan. " he
observed.
Gohan sweatdropped, " Thanks Toussan. " he sat down on the rockingchair in the Son home and started to rock Pan back
and forth, " Actually I've been doing a lot of reading up on babies. Crying can mean a lot of different things you know. It
ranges from basic needs such as hunger and comfort to problems like flatulence. "
" Flatulence? "
" Gas. "
" Ah. "
" That would be pretty ironic...if the reason for your crying that drove Brolli insane was because you had gas. "
Gohan sweatdropped.
" Heh-heh-heh-heh... "
" ... " ▫
" Sorry. " Goku smiled cheesily.
" But the doctors didn't find anything wrong with her, so I'm betting its her appetite. Pan's only a fourth saiyajin
so I can't really tell yet if she's inherited a saiyajin appetite or a human one. And I'm afraid of both under or overfeeding
her.. " the demi-saiyajin frowned.
" You should just let her eat as much food as she can and when she's full you'll know! " Goku chirped.
" I, don't exactly know about that.. " Gohan sweatdropped at the idea.
Goku looked around, " Where'd Chi-chan go? "
" I sent her out to go pick up some groceries for the baby. " Gohan told him.
" But, why not just send me? I could get the groceries done a lot faster than Chi-chan could? " he tilted his head.
" We only sent her because it'd buy us some time without her hovering over us. " Videl mumbled sleepily. She poked
her stomach lightly, " Euugh it feels terrible..like a big sack of jello. " she grimaced and rolled onto her side.
Pan's crying started to slow up as Gohan continued to rock her, " Toussan, we were thinking and we decided to ask
you if you would like to be one of our emergancy babysitters. "
" Huh? "
" You know, if for some reason we absolutely needed someone to watch Pan for us for a few hours, we were thinking
you, Piccolo-san, and Hercule can all be possible babysitters depending on whichever one of you isn't busy at the moment. "
" What a-bout Chi-chan? "
" NO! " both Gohan and Videl cried out at once.
" At..at least not until she comes out of this "Chi-Chi Jr" phase of hers. " Videl laughed nervously.
Gohan looked over at his wife incrediously, " You think that's a PHASE! "
" You have not known Chi-chan very long at all. " Goku sweatdropped.
" Uh... " Videl blinked.
" Kaasan gets...really into things; I mean, she's very...persistent, when it comes to getting her way. " Gohan tried
to explain without it sounding so harsh.
" That's why Chi-chan made a rulebook for me to follow. " Goku held up the eeriely thick book.
" Now THAT, I find creepy. " Videl said, pointing to said book, " I mean, doesn't that sorta represent Chi-Chi not
trusting you to make your own responsible adult decisions? "
" Or trust him to make decisions SHE'S happy with. " Gohan sighed dejectedly.
" Just gave you a "studying" flashback? " Videl looked over at him.
" Oh yeah.. " the demi-saiyajin sweatdropped, " I am definately glad I moved out of this house; not that I don't luv
Kaasan, its just that I don't feel on my toes all the time anymore. "
" ... " Goku looked down at the book and tossed it onto the nearby sofa, " Veggie trusts me to make responsible
a-dult decisions. " he pouted.
" Yeah, how was your month with him on Bejito-sei? " Gohan asked, curious.
A small smile appeared on Goku's face, then slowly widened into a huge grin, " IT WAS THE BEST MONTH EVER! " he
gushed excitedly, " Oh Veggie and I had so much FUN! We explored the entire planet and I learned saiyago and we made a bunch
of native dishes and hunted the super-huge fish that live on the planet and...oh I could've stayed there with Veggie
forever.. " the large saiyajin mused.
" ... " ▫
" ... " ▫
Gohan and Videl stared at him in confusion.
" Yes? " Goku glanced over at them.
" Are you purring? " Videl asked. The loud noise was rumbling throughout the entire room.
" Mmm-hmm. " he nodded contently.
She turned to Gohan, amused, " Can you purr? "
" GAH! I don't know! " Gohan flushed with embarassment, " A..at least I don't ever remember.. "
" I think you need your tail for it. " Goku spoke up, " I know how you can get it back if you want it. You gotta
poke the spot directly above your tail-mark in a quick, forceful thrust with your finger. " he explained.
" I'm not sure if I really want my tail back yet. " Gohan laughed nervously.
" ▫Knock▫knock▫knock▫ "
Goku sniffed the air, " Veggie? " he walked forward to the door and opened it.
" Kakarrotto! " the ouji smiled.
" VEGGIE! " he hugged the smaller saiyajin tightly, " What brings you here? "
" Bulma needs some samples of your bodily fluids. You're overdue for a checkup. "
" Ah...oh-kay. I can do that! " Goku nodded, " I haven't given samples in a very long while anyway. AND there aren't
any needles involved! " he grinned.
" Well, if you're going.. " Videl trailed off, " Vegeta could you hand me the phone over there? "
The ouji picked up the portable phone and gave it to Videl, " What do you need it for? "
" If Mr. Son's leaving I'm calling my dad over as substitute backup for when Gohan's mom returns from grocery
shopping. "
" You sent Onna grocery shopping to keep her manipulative presence away from your baby; smart thinking. She should
be gone for at least 3 hours. " Vegeta smirked.
" Heh.. " Videl trailed off, then started to dial her father's home phone.
" Well, I guess we'll see you later, Toussan. " Gohan waved to them with his free arm.
" See you later Gohan! " Goku waved back, then picked Vegeta up under his arm and sensed around for Bulma's ki,
" Come Veggie! " he grinned, then teleported them both out of sight.
" You can? Oh thank goodness! " Videl exclaimed. She turned to Gohan and put her hand over the phone, " Dad can get
here within the hour. "
" Great! "

" Hmmhmmhmm, hmmhmmhmm, hmmhmm hmmhmmhmm... " Goku hummed happily as he sat in the waiting room of Bulma's lab.
" Here you go Son-kun. " Bulma said, entering the room while carrying a 64oz bottle of water, " Just drink this down
and I'll be with you in a moment. "
" K! " he replied, then screwed the top off the bottle and started to chug the water inside, " Mmmm- AH! " the large
saiyajin finished the huge bottle of water in under a minute.
Bulma poked her head back into the room and sweatdropped, " Wow that was quick...guess I shouldn't have been
surprised. " she adjusted her lab coat, " Now, " she walked up to him, " I just need a few samples from you. " she pulled out
a cup and handed it to Goku while keeping its top, " Spit please. "
Goku did so, then gave Bulma the cup back. She placed the top on tightly, stuck a label on it, and placed it on a
nearby counter.
" Now, " she took out a slightly larger cup, " I'm pretty sure you know why I gave you that unusually large bottle
of water. "
" You got it Bulma! " Goku took the larger cup and headed off to the lab's bathroom, closing the door behind him.
" So? "
" ACK! " Bulma nearly fell over at the voice behind her. She whipped around to see Vegeta standing there, " Vegeta
what are you doing in here? Goku's in the "releasing his various body liquids" stage of his checkup! "
" OH? " the ouji's eyes suddenly widened.
Bulma groaned, " Not that. We're not to that yet. "
Vegeta sighed with relief.
" Here you go! " Goku chirped, suddenly standing there holding said cup of yellow liquid.
" Thank you, Son-kun. " Bulma capped it, labeled it, and placed it along the row with the container of spit, " And
now the last one. " she whipped out a humongous container, bigger than the size of the human head, and handed it to him.
Vegeta's jaw hung open at the sheer size of the container, " T..that can't possibly be for..FOR.. "
" Alright Son-kun, just take your time and call me when you're done. " Bulma patted him on the shoulders.
" Oh-kay! " the large saiyajin nodded, then glanced over at Vegeta and smiled warmly, " ▫Sigh▫... "
" AAAGH? DON'T STARE AT ME BEFORE YOU GO TO DO WHAT I ASSUME YOU'RE GOING TO GO DO! " Vegeta sputtered in shock,
his face going bright red.
" Uh-huuuuuuh... " Goku wagged his tail lazily behind him as he tilted his head contently.
" Ah haha..ha...uh-huh. " the ouji nervously laughed back. He quickly grabbed Bulma and pulled her off to the side,
" Do you REALLY need a seed sample from him RIGHT NOW! " he whispered.
" Well, yeah, I need to make sure he's healthy. " Bulma sweatdropped.
" OOOH! Don't you know Kakarrotto has to think naughty thoughts to get you that sample! " Vegeta exclaimed in a
panic.
" Not necessarily; you don't KNOW if its naughty.. " she trailed off.
" Hn.. " Vegeta glanced back at Goku with suspicion. Then looked away, " F..fine. Do what you want. I'm going back
upstairs to get my ears and eyes as far away from Kakarrotto until his checkup is completed. " he nervously made his way
up the stairs.
Goku and Bulma stood there for a moment, then Goku shrugged happily and went into the bathroom. Bulma sweatdropped.

" Ohhhhhh.. " Vegeta groaned uneasily as he lay there on the couch, tossing and turning.
" Hey there, Uke. Having some sleep problems, hmm? "
A vein bulged on the ouji's forehead, " Go away, this is none of your concern. " he hissed at Turles; the ouji's face
smushed against a pillow.
" What was that? " Turles tilted his head curiously, not hearing him with the pillow muffling Vegeta's voice, " You
want to have your very own kaka-baby? "
Vegeta whipped around and turned to face him, " I SAID NO SUCH THING! "
" Oh, but you were thinking about it earlier. I can tell these things...the way you got all defensive when Chi-Chi
suggested to Kakarrotto that he impregnate her for a third time...and how later on you mentioned that going to the beach
allowed you to temporarily take your mind off such thoughts of becoming pregnant... " he said cooly.
" Listen you! " Vegeta jumped to his feet, " First off, I do NOT want a kaka-baby; your deductions are wrong!
Second, I CANNOT have a kaka-baby because my naturally SEME body is not equipped for such things! And THIRD, if anyone
should be the one having this hypothetical 3rd "fusion-baby"; it would be Kakarrotto! NOT ME! "
" Uh-huh. " Turles said, unfazed.
" ...I could talk til I was blue in the face and you still wouldn't believe me, would you. " Vegeta said
incrediously.
" Sorry Vegeta-san, not my fault you're in denial about your own ukedom. " Turles shrugged.
" OOOoOH! I'M NOT AN UKE! AND, AND YOU SHOULDN'T EVEN BE HERE! " Vegeta sputtered, " You were supposed to be out
of this house TEN MONTHS AGO after your arm healed from our battle against you! And yet you're still here! WHY! WHY WON'T
YOU JUST PACK UP AND LEAVE BACK INTO OUTER SPACE! "
" Oh, I will. "
" Y..really? " Vegeta blinked, surprised.
" Mmm-hmm, just admit you're an uke, and I'm outta here. "
" GAH! NO WAY! I'm not an uke! " the ouji sputtered.
" Then it looks like I'm staying. " Turles smirked.
" Errr, NO! You won't darken my chances of possible-future-platonic-semehood any longer! " Vegeta announced
overdramatically.
" ...can you even really link that many words together and still have it work? "
" SILENCE! " Vegeta exclaimed, " I refuse to deal with your twisted evil in my own house a minute longer! " he
exclaimed, his ki charging up, " For ten grueling months you have slowly but surely inserted a level of doubt into my
previously unquestioned semehood! "
" That would be level 3. " Turles grinned at him, speaking up.
" And I will not stand by and watch my semedom decay any further! TURLES, ah, whateveryourlastnameis, I'M KICKING
YOU OUT OF MY HOME ONCE AND FOR ALL! " Vegeta pointed heroically at the evil type-3 saiyajin.
1:35 AM 5/24/2005
END OF PART ONE!
Vegeta: (grinning excitedly) Do I get rid of him?
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) Veggie..
Vegeta: (sighs dejectedly) That's a "no" then, huh?
Chuquita: I can't tell you and spoiler a chunk of the next chapter, Veggie.
Vegeta: Huh...(thinks) Can I write a chunk of the next chapter?
Goku: I wonder what it would be like if Veggie wrote a story...
Vegeta: (grins) It would be a masterpiece Kakarrotto! I'd call it "The Epic of the Great and Powerful Saiyajin no Ouji"! Or,
"Vegeta-sama's Semetastic Victory"; something like that.
Goku: Heeheehee.
Vegeta: And you, my favorite peasant, would be the very first one to get to read it.
Goku: YAY!
Vegeta:)
Chuquita: ... (blinks) (perks up) And on that note, we leave you with Part 1! (to audiance) See you sometime next week with
Part 2, everybody!
Vegeta: (musing) Perhaps one day I shall write a story...
Goku: I'd call mine "Veggie 'n Me!"
Vegeta: (flushes in the cheeks) ...
Goku: Haha, BYEBYE!
