Quote of the Week: -from "Spongebob Squarepants"
Gary the Snail: Here's one YOU might know; there once was a man from Peru, who dreamed he was eating his shoe.
He woke with a fright, in the middle of the night, to find that his dream had come true.
Chuey's Corner:
Chuquita: Welcome readers and reviewers to a very interesting requested fic!
Goku: (grinning ear-to-ear) I get psychic mental powers!
Vegeta: (groans) And I get a headache.
Chuquita: But that's for the story, not today's Corner. Today we're celebrating the "joys of music".
Goku: And singing! (grins at Veggie)
Vegeta: (turns his head away) Oh dear God....
Goku: I heard Veggie sing-a-song and now I want to sing a-long!
Vegeta: (snorts) No you don't.
Goku: (cheerful) Yes I do.
Vegeta: No you DON'T!
Goku: Yes I do!
Vegeta: You don't even know what the song I sang was about!!
Chuquita: (to Son) Don't let that stop you.
Goku: YAY!!
Vegeta: PLEASE, Chu, don't encourage him!
Chuquita: (humoring Goku) (to Veggie) But he wants to sing with you *SO MUCH* (snickers) [patting Goku on the shoulders]
Goku: [w/super-big psychotic grin on his face] (squeals) VEGGIESONGS FOR ME!!!
Vegeta: (flatly) Thanks a lot, Chu.
Chuquita: (satisfied grin) You're welcome. [pulls out a tapeplayer and sets it on the desk, then turns it on]
[snappy, repetitive, determined-sounding music comes out of the tapeplayer]
Goku: (blinks) What's that? [points to speakers]
Chuquita: That, my friends, is the offical Veggie theme-song!
Goku: (w/big sparkily eyes) My little Veggie has his very own **THEME*SONG**???
Vegeta: (face turning red) [covers his eyes with his hands and turns away] OHHHhhhhhh....
Chuquita: That's right! It turns out in the japanese version of your show many of the main characters have their very own
theme songs. The site I got this off of (and have yet to find the place (Travegeta's) again) had Veggie's theme song as well
as several other non-vocal songs including Chi-Chi's theme song.
Vegeta: (opens his mouth to say something)
Goku: Veggie don't be mean!
Vegeta: (closes his mouth) (snorts)
Chuquita: Chi-Chi's was off the server at the time so I couldn't download hers. I've heard Veggie's, Piccolo's and Gohan's
theme songs though.
Goku: (eagerly) What about mine?
Chuquita: I don't know what yours sounds like.
Goku: (pouts) Aww...
Vegeta: (sarcasm) Don't worry, Kakarrotto, I'm sure it's some nice, sweet, soft, cute-and-fuzzy sounding bit of
musical-torture that my ears luckily are spared from hearing for the moment.
Goku: (smiles at Veggie) Wow little Veggie, you really think my theme song would sound THAT amazing and wonderful!! That's
such a KIND thing for you to say about me!
Vegeta: (nervous laughter) D--don't be a baka, Kakarrotto. I was being sarcastic.
Goku: (still smiling, touched) What does that mean?
Vegeta: (sweatdrops) Nevermind.
Goku: Well I LIKE Veggie's theme-song! (whistles to the music)
Vegeta: (groans) Oh brother.
Chuquita: Today's corner "theme" was inspired by the Veggie theme song, by "Vegeta-sama no oryouri Jigoku" (the song I
mentioned in the last story's last chapter where the japanese Veggie sings) a clip of Piccolo's old dub va singing Brak's
"I'm a Cucumber" song in Piccolo's voice surrounded by a backdrop allowing it to appear it was dubbed that way, AND Son-kun's
self-patented "Heeheehee" song from sub episode 274.
Goku: (still whistling) Do doo do-do do do-do do doodoodoo, do doo do-do do do-do do doodoodoo, do doo do-do do---wow, this
song IS stubbornly repetitive, yet catchy.
Chuquita: Just like Veggie.
Goku: (grins) YEAH! _JUST_ _LIKE_ _VEGGIE_!!!
Vegeta: (groans; resting his head in his hands and slowly shaking it)
Goku: (pokes Veggie) Veggie wanna get up and dance with me?
Vegeta: (bluntly) NO.
Goku: (pouts) Aww, come on little Veggie! It'll be FUN!
Vegeta: NO!
Goku: (eyes all watery) Buh Veh-gee~~
Vegeta: NO! THE LAST TIME I "DANCED" WITH YOU, WE HAD GOGETA!!!
Goku: (blinks) ...
Vegeta: ...
Chuquita: [inches her chair slightly away from Veggie]
Vegeta: (sweatdrops as it suddenly hits him) Kuso!....That, didn't come out right.
Goku: (giggling at him) Heeheeheeheehee!
Vegeta: OH YOU SHUT UP!!!
Goku: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! WHEE~~!!! HAHA! (to Chu) I love it when Veggie gets all flustered and says stuff that comes out
like it should mean other stuff that isn't what Veggie originally intended to mean when he said it!
Vegeta: (cocks his head) Eh?
Goku: Silly Veggie! (grins) [pats Veggie on the head] He is such a fast learner.
Vegeta: (sweatdrops)
Chuquita: And now we'd like to introduce Part 1 of "Mind Over Matter". A story where Son-kun gains extordinary psychic
powers and becomes slightly spoiled by them.
Vegeta: (to audiance) The lesson here today is never give Kakarrotto any type of mental power that's bigger than his brain.
Chuquita: Remember, this fic occurs in a slightly different timeline (those who read "Happily Ever After" know that) so what
happens to this Goku, Veggie, etc, doesn't effect my regular fics timeline.
Summary: Goku has finally mastered a difficult technique taught to him by the aliens he learned to teleport from. The ability
to manipulate those around him with his mind! Unfortunately, when Goku becomes angered, his mind causes the source of the
anger to disappear out of existance! What happens when the large saiyajin becomes too spoiled by his newfound powers to zap
up whatever foods and toys he desires? He traps his the last unzapped buddy remaining in his house! Will Veggie be able to
calm him down before HE gets zapped away too? Will Veggie even be able to escape the Son home un-noticed to even get help?
Will anyone notice he's gone?
Goku: (to Veggie) I have GREAT mental strength!
Vegeta: Sure you do, Kakarrotto.
Goku: (bends spoon with his mind)
Vegeta: (unimpressed) So?
Goku: (Bends chainsaw with his mind)
Vegeta: (blinks in shock) ...nevermind.
*****************************************************************************************************************************
" Vehhhh-gee. Oh VEGGIE! Where ARE you? " and over-eager voice giggled from inside the small, rounded, mountain house
Vegeta had just run out of. The little ouji made a wild dash over a nearby hill, panic-stricken by his persuer yet hopeful he
might actually escape this time. He looked down at the small, ouji-sized blue gi he had on and shuddered.
" Someplace YOU won't think to look, THAT'S for sure. " Vegeta snickered quietly, a smirk on his face. He could feel
the other ki still in the house searching wildly for him, then exitting and looking around the front and back yards. He had
been plotting this ve-getaway for several weeks now since he had met another version of himself via Mirai Trunks's time
machine with Goku. The sole difference between them was this other timeline's Goku had no super-mental powers, thereby
keeping his own alternate as the same cool-headed, cocky ouji he would've been had he not been pushed to the breaking point
by a very spoiled psychic saiyajin.
:::" That Veggie looked almost sad to be going home. " Goku cocked his head.
" OF COURSE HE WAS SAD THAT OTHER YOU IS USING HIM AS A PUPPET AND A PLAYTHING AND WHO KNOWS WHAT ELSE HE DOES TO
HIM!!! " Vegeta yelled angrily, then spat, " I should've put that other me out of his misery when he had the chance! At
least he would've died a warriors death instead of lost his sanity playing cuddle-toy to that psycho-version of you. ":::
" Well NO MORE! " the ouji laughed proudly, " I'm getting out of this kaka-created playground and getting my dignity
back RIGHT NOW!! " a grin graced his over-stressed-looking face. Vegeta looked out in excitement to see a city down below
the hill he was standing on, " People... " the small saiyajin said in shock, then nearly squealed, " PEOPLE WHO AREN'T
KAKARROTTO!! PEOPLE WHO CAN HELP ME!! PEOPLE WHO CAN'T PLACE MIND-CONTROL OVER ME AND MAKE ME SING BABY-SONGS AND DO
PRIMITIVE LITTLE DANCES FOR THEIR OWN ENJOYMENT!! FREEDOM!!! "
" Tsk tsk tsk. "
Vegeta froze in terror.
" Little Veggie is not trying to run away again, is he? " the very same voice that once made the ouji excited to hear
was now the same one that now ironically struck fear though his entire body. The owner of the voice teleported infront of
Vegeta, " You weren't trying to LEAVE me, where you Veggie? " Goku asked innocently.
" Nuh-nuh, no. NO, I wasn't LEAVING, haha, of course not, Kakarrotto. " Vegeta laughed nervously, backing up slightly
Goku steped towards him, narrowing his eyes, " Little Veggie knows he can't go too far from home or he'll get hurt
or end up in danger and I won't be able to save him. Veggie DOES know that, right? "
" Umm, yes? " the ouji grinned cheesily, sweat dripping down the side of his face.
" Well if lil Vedge'ums knew that then why is he out here? " Goku said suspicously, cornering Vegeta at the edge of
the hill.
" Uhhhh... "
" Veggie doesn't wanna, go AWAY, does he? " the larger saiyajin sniffled, " Veggie doesn't wanna leave me all alone
up here, does he? "
" It's not that, Kakarrotto, it's just, " Vegeta stammered.
" Veggie doesn't want me to send him away, does he? " Goku said sadly. Vegeta's pupils grew as wide as saucers,
" Because I can send Veggie away. Veggie can find out where everyone else has gone. " he grabbed the ouji by each arm, " But
I love my little Veggie so much I'd just hate to do that. " Goku rubbed his eyes.
" Heh-heh-heh, yes, I AM very important you know, it'd be a real, heh-heh, shame alright. " Vegeta said, feeling
slightly braver.
Goku looked down and glared at the ouji, then smirked, " Hey Veh-geee~~ " he raised his arms. Vegeta's eyes widened.
" ...AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "
/dl
2 Months Earlier...
" Oh Ka-karrotto! Open up! " Vegeta said, unusually cheerful. He knocked on the door to the house several times only
to have it creak open.
" Go away, Ouji. He's busy! " Chi-Chi hissed, then turned to slam the door only to have Vegeta wedge his foot between
the door and the doorway.
" "Busy"? Doing WHAT? " the ouji scoffed, then smirked, " I think you're lying, Onna. "
" What! "
" I think you're just "saying" that Kakay is busy when in reality he's probably asleep or watching TV or eating or
something that YOU don't want ME in intrude upon. " Vegeta boasted.
" Hence the term, "busy". " Chi-Chi said mockingly. She slammed the door hard, causing Vegeta to let out a yelp of
pain and yank his foot out from the doorway.
" Oww... " the small saiyajin rubbed his bruised foot, " Baka Onna. " he grumbled, then took a deep breath and
shouted, " KAKARROTTO!!! KAKARROTTO OPEN UP!! IT'S ME!! VEGGIE!! ONNA JUST TRIED TO _ASSASSIGNATE_ ME WITH YOUR FRONT DOOR! "
" Ugh. " Chi-Chi groaned from inside, then locked the door.
" ... "
" Hmmph. " Vegeta snorted after recieving no response. The ouji wandered around the house, then stopped when he
noticed the large kitchen window wide open. Vegeta looked upwards and grinned, " Thank you, Kaka-chan. " he snickered and
hopped inside, " Kakarrotto!! " he called out, " Kakarrotto I've brought you a present! It's very *SPECIAL* and *RARE* and
from our *HOMEPLANET*!! " Vegeta said as he walked around the room, " OH KAKARROTT--oh. " the ouji paused to see Goku sitting
indian-style on the kitchen table with his eyes closed. The larger saiyajin sitting in a meditative stance very similar to
Piccolo's.
" Ouji! Get out of my house! " Chi-Chi said as she rushed into the room and tried to push him back out the window,
" Goku is on the verge of mastering this technique that he's been trying to get right ever since those people who taught him
to teleport tried to teach him this trick back before he even returned from fighting Freezer! "
" You don't even remember what the aliens or the planet's name was, do you Onna? " Vegeta smirked, amused, " However,
I'm not surprised why Kakay stayed with them so long. I knew you were unfit to take care of such a 'caring' peasant the
moment Porunga said Kakarrotto didn't want to come back to Earth and you took out that sword and threatened to slice him into
little bite-sized kaka-pieces. " he exclaimed overdramatically, " Poor, POOR little Kakay. All alone in space. But did YOU
go out there to save him? NO! You CRUEL, EVIL Onna. " Vegeta mock-sobbed.
" THAT'S BECAUSE YOU STOLE MY SPACESHIP AND FLEW OFF AFTER HIM BEFORE I GOT A CHANCE TO EVEN GET MY SPACESUIT BACK
ON AGAIN!!! " Chi-Chi screamed.
" Ha! A likely story! " Vegeta scoffed, " What would Kakay think of you if he knew you only cared about GOHAN'S
safety and didn't even give a crap about the very saiyajin who's seed allowed for his creation? "
" Why don't you ask him yourself after he's finished! " Chi-Chi said shortly.
" In fact, I remember hearing from Bulma that directly after the first time I fought Kakarrotto that you took him and
Gohan into a helecopter and coddled the little kaka-spawn while you let Kakarrotto; who was in an EXCRUSITATING, AGONIZING,
TWISTING, TORRENT OF PAIN lie on the FLOOR, bleeding to DEATH! "
Chi-Chi narrowed her eyes at Vegeta.
" I see you have no response. Typical. That's because it's TRUE! " he pointed at her, then looked over at Goku, " Did
you hear that, Kakarrotto-chan! "
" You're not one to talk, stupid little Ouji. YOU WERE THE ONE WHO BEAT HIM TO A PULP IN THE FIRST PLACE!!! " Chi-Chi
shrieked at the top of her lungs, " I DON'T SEE HOW HE CAN EVEN FORGIVE YOU FOR ALL THAT YOU EVIL, CREEPY LITTLE MONSTER!! "
" Chi-CHAN!! "
Chi-Chi paused, then looked over at a saddened Goku, " Chi-chan, can you be more quiet. This trick is really hard and
I can't perform it with you yelling at little Veggie. "
" Ha! Well, you must've COMPLETELY missed the part where Onna tried to JAM MY FOOT IN THE DOOR and BREAK IT! "
Goku looked to his right and yelped to see Vegeta suddenly next to him, sitting in the same position, " Little Veh--
but-- " he looked back at the floor to see Vegeta standing there, waving, then quickly turned back and gawked to see the
ouji in the same spot on the table as if he hadn't even moved, " Aww, little Veggies are silly! " he laughed, giving the
smaller saiyajin a hug, " What are you doing here today, little Veggie? "
" Well, Kakarrotto. I just happened to drop by with a present for my favorite peasant. " Vegeta shrugged it off,
smirking.
" A present for me? " Goku grinned, " From little Veggie? For no good reason but because he ~*LUVS*~ me? "
Vegeta blinked, his face bright red, " Umm...hai. Because I l--I mean, for no good reason. Of course. " he shook the
redness from his face, then pulled out a capsule, " Behold! A gift sent to me from my father from our homeplanet which no
longer exists but he managed to ship this gift to me via Baba. " he dropped the capsule to expose what looked like a box of
instant hot chocolate. The letters on the box were all in saiyago while a large picture of the royal seal decorated the back
of the box, " It is a box of the official secret-recipe-formula saiyajin hot cocoa! " Vegeta turned the box upside-down and
pointed to a small label, " See? Made on Bejito-sei. "
" WOW!!! " Goku gasped excitedly, " REAL LIVE VEGGIE-FOOD!! "
" Oh brother. " Chi-Chi groaned, shaking her head.
" That's right, "real live *VEGGIE*-food". " Vegeta smirked, " It's VERY good. Did I mention secret? "
" GIMMIE!! " the larger saiyajin reached out to grab the box only to have Vegeta pull it away. Goku cried out and
nearly fell off the table.
" I will. But ONLY if you tell me what you are doing SITTING on the kitchen table of your house impersonating the
namekian. " Vegeta nodded.
" Well, I'm trying to learn a new trick! " Goku chirped, quickly snagging the box of hot cocoa away from the ouji.
" Why would you order hot cocoa in May?! " Chi-Chi sweatdropped.
" Late postage. " Vegeta muttered in replay.
" And after I master this technique, I'll be able to grant wishes that're practically on-par with Shenlong's!! " the
large saiyajin grinned. Vegeta's eyeballs nearly shot out of his head.
" Y-y-y-y-YOU!? KAKARROTTO? Granting wishes?! To ME~~~? " the ouji said as an evil smirk covered his face and the
little gears in his brain started to turn.
" If your wish is for stuff, I mean. I can't make Veggie immortal or anything. " Goku nodded.
" Ha, he already had Shenlong to grant THAT one. " Chi-Chi threw a glare in the ouji's direction. Vegeta grinned in
response, " Goku, you don't think you could UNgrant that wish he made back in October and UN-immortal him and yourself, could
you? " she asked.
" I dunno, " Goku whined, " It's a hard technique to begin with Chi-chan! This trick requires me sending some of my
body's ki temporarily into my brain to increase my mental powers. " he explained, " It hurts! "
Vegeta snickered, " Kakarrotto probably has trouble even finding what part of his body his brain is in. "
" HE DOES TOO, OUJI! " Chi-Chi exclaimed, then turned to Goku, " It's in your head, dear. "
Goku sweatdropped, " I knew THAT! "
" Of course I did. I was just checking. " she said warmly, then turned back to the smaller saiyajin, " Haha! Listen
to this, Ouji! Once my Go-chan learns how to create objects with his mind I won't need to spend any money ever again! AND
you'll have nothing to offer him that he can't whip up himself! If I wanted a brand new sofa I saw in a catalog I could
merely show Goku a picture of it and he could make a copy of the exact sofa appear in our living room! For FREE! "
" Isn't that stealing? " Vegeta smirked.
" Oh! I don't wanna STEAL, Chi-chan. " Goku shook his head, worried.
" IT WON'T BE STEALING! " Chi-Chi said, " All you'll be doing is making a completely NEW sofa. Don't you want a new
sofa to sit on? And a brand new big plush bed? And how about a refridgerator twice the size of our current one? We can have
all this and more once you learn how to bring them into being with that wonderful little brain of yours! " she encouraged
him.
" You sound like a commercial. " Vegeta sweatdropped.
" Could it be a water bed? " Goku smiled wider at Chi-Chi.
" Of course! "
" With little fishies swimming around inside? "
" Yes, yes! "
" And I can open up a hatch inside the bed and take some out to snack on whenever I like!? " Goku's grin reached an
almost insane proportion.
" Sure, Go-chan! Go forth! The WORLD is your canvas! " Chi-Chi proclaimed overdramatically.
" I like painting, Chi-chan! " Goku said excitedly.
" Then let's get moving! "
" YAY!! " Goku cheered, hopping the window outside, " I'M GONNA MAKE STUFF FOR ME AND CHI-CHAN!!! "
" ....wow. My sweet Go-chan is going to make us all filthy stinkin rich! " Chi-Chi smiled at him admiringly, " And
here I always thought it would be Gohan. "
" Somehow, I doubt Kakarrotto's brain will be able to produce nothing more than an oddly shaped melon. " Vegeta
commented.
" OH WHAT DO YOU KNOW OUJI! " Chi-Chi snapped, then went back to musing, " Go-chan's going to make me even richer
than YOU ARE! " she grinned victoriously, " Who knew all that martial arts of his would pay off like THIS! "
/dl
" Hnn...HNNN.....oh I can't do it! " Goku pouted as he sat down on the grass 5 minutes away from his home, " There's
gotta be something simple I could try. But what? " the larger saiyajin rested the side of his cheek against his hand, looking
out at the fields before him, " ...you know what we never have many up here of, flowers. " Goku smiled, " .....YEAH! I'll
make a flower! That sounds easy! " he said cheerfully, then focused his attention on the grass infront of him. The larger
saiyajin went into a half-meditative state as he started sending part of his body's ki towards his brain while continuing to
focus on the grass, " Errrr... "
" *POOF*! "
Goku blinked. As if out of nowhere a single rose appeared before him, looking like it had been growing there for
several months, " ...uhh.... " the saiyajin stared blankly, then suddenly grinned as it what he had just done hit him across
the face, " AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! " Goku squealed excitedly.
" What are you so happy about? " a familiar voice asked, teleporting behind him.
Goku spun around, " VEGGIE LOOK!!! " he grabbed the little ouji and pushed his head forward until he was staring the
flower down.
" Hai Kakarrotto. That is a flower. " Vegeta said flatly.
" Nuh-uh. It's not JUST a flower. It's MY flower! " Goku let go of Vegeta's head, then picked him up under the arms,
" Little Veggie I just made this flower appear all on my own with my new trick! Isn't it pretty! I'm so happy!!! " he hugged
Vegeta tightly, " Chi-chan will be SO proud of me! "
" Are you...sure...you made that, Kakarrotto? " Vegeta squeaked out, his face starting to flush red; Goku still
hugging him.
" I DID make it Veggie! With my mind! And I could do it again too! See! " Goku concentrated on the grass again and
out popped a daisy and several blossoms. Vegeta's jaw hung open as Goku's grip slipped on the ouji and he plopped down onto
the grass, " And I can put some there and here and here and there and--WOW!!! " Goku said in awe after just pointing his arms
in every direction around them. Nearly the entire mountain-side was now covered in a variety of wild-flowers, " Look little
buddy, it is beauuutiful. " the large saiyajin mused.
Vegeta stood up, only to find the plants he was presently surrounded by were even taller than himself. The ouji
grumbled and floated above them to where he could see, mainly at Goku's height. Vegeta nearly fell over at the number of
flaura, " Kakarrotto. " he sweatdropped, " Why did you just do that! " he groaned.
" Because... " Goku mumbled in an astonished voice, " BECAUSE I CAN! " he cheered, then pointed at the ouji and
zapped a small flower in his hair. Vegeta looked up and sweatdropped at it, " EEEEEE~~~!!! " Goku grinned, then grabbed
Vegeta and squeezed him again, " ~~**KAWAIII**~~!!! " the larger saiyajin squealed, snuggling.
Vegeta twitched, somewhere between disgust and the mind-numbing feeling in his brain due to the fact that he was now
glowing bright enough to count as a major light source. The ouji reached up and tossed the little flower out his hair only
to have Goku zap another one in its place.
" This is SO COOL! " Goku said, looking out at his creations.
" You don't think you could make anything else besides 'flowers', do you Kakarrotto? " Vegeta asked wryly.
" I don't know... " Goku trailed off, " LET'S GO BACK HOME AND TRY!!! "
/dl
" Heehee, heeheehee. " the little voice behind Vegeta giggled. The ouji did his best to ignore it as he continued on
walking back to Goku's house. The larger saiyajin had been quietly zapping multiple little flowers into the ouji's hair as
they went until it looked like he was wearing a type of flower headband.
" Bakayaro. " Vegeta grumbled, ::Just what he needs. The power the create flowers with his brain:: he thought
sarcastically just as they reached the house.
" Oh Veggie you look so ~*cute*~! You should see yourself in the mirror! " Goku awwed at the smaller saiyajin.
" I'll be sure to do that, Kakarrotto. " Vegeta remarked dryly, then knocked on the door.
" UGH! What is that SMELL! " Chi-Chi's voice came from behind the door. She opened it and yelped to see every bit of
the land before her covered in flowers.
" Heeheeheeheee! " Goku covered his mouth, trying to contain his giggles. Chi-Chi looked up at him curiously, then
down at Vegeta and saw the ouji now had a ring of flowers wrapped around his head, neck, wrists, ankles, and several around
his tail.
" Ha..haha.....AH-HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! " she burst into laughter, pointing at him. Vegeta groaned. Chi-Chi went
back inside laughing, then closed the door and re-opened it, calmed down, " Hello, Ouji. " she said, glaring at him for a
moment, then whipped out a camera, " SAY CHEESE!! "
" *click* "
Vegeta let out a yelp of surprise, his pupils dialating due to the sudden flash. He wobbled back to have Goku catch
him.
" Silly Veggie! " Goku smiled at the dazed little ouji.
" HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! " Chi-Chi began laughing again, only to freeze when a blast of ki hit her camera and exploded
it. She narrowed her eyes at a content Vegeta, " --jerk. "
" Hey Onna, guess what Kakay can do now. " Vegeta boasted, pointing to all the flowers behind him.
Chi-Chi stared for a moment, then grinned at Goku, " YOU DID THAT!! "
" UH-HUH UH-HUH UH-HUH! " Goku nodded eagerly, " So! What does Chi-chan think? "
" I think--it's WONDERFUL, Goku! " Chi-Chi said, kicking Vegeta out of the way and hugging onto Goku, " Just look at
them all! And if you can create flowers you can surely create many other things as well! We can now have EVERYTHING we desire
thanks you YOUR little brain! "
" Someone remind me why I come here again? " Vegeta said dryly, still laying on his side.
" Does lil-lil Veh-gee wanna come inside and have lunch with me? " Goku asked sweetly, bending down so he was in the
ouji's light, " Snacking with Veggie is so much more fun than snacking without him! "
" ... " Vegeta's face turned a light red as he suddenly remembered, " Oh, right. " he sat up, " Sure, let's go,
Kakarrotto. "
" Why don't we eat out here? It'll be MUCH nicer! " Goku smiled.
" Kaka--I'd rather not. " Vegeta grumbled, picking the flowers off his body.
" But look at the nice new outdoor table we have. " the larger saiyajin pointed off into the yard. Vegeta turned to
what would normally be a blank space but instead was a white table with a red and white sun-umbrella sticking out the top.
Four white chairs were set around the table and Chi-Chi was pouring two glasses of lemonade.
" Don't invite him over here, Goku! He can't have any! " she shouted.
Vegeta blinked, confused, " How did you--but that wasn't just th--you're a fast learner. " he commented, surprised.
" Why thank you little Veggie! " Goku smiled, then grabbed him by the wrist, " Here come have a snack with us! "
" GO-KU! " Chi-Chi said warningly.
" Little Veggie's hungry too, Chi-chan! " he exclaimed.
" Yeah Onna, buzz off. " Vegeta smirked, " After all, Kakay says so. Why, if he wanted I bet he could turn you into a
fly and I could swat you with my bare glove. "
" I wonder if I CAN turn people into things... " Goku trailed off, curious.
" DON'T PUT SUCH THOUGHTS INTO HIS BRAIN, OUJI! " Chi-Chi yelled.
" You're just worried Kakay will use his powers against you. " the ouji boasted, sitting down in one of the chairs.
" Goku would NEVER use ANY type of power against me! " Chi-Chi gawked, then looked over at Goku, " Would you,
sweetie? " she smiled.
" I wonder if I could make Veggie feel anymore huggable than he is now... " Goku thought to himself, smiling. Vegeta
paled, then stood up, " Or maybe act and look a little cuter... "
" I think I'll be going now. " the ouji said quickly.
" No, STAY. " Chi-Chi grinned evilly at Vegeta, who glared at her, " Goku would be SO DISAPPOINTED if you were to
leave NOW, Ouji. "
Vegeta snarled at her, then opened his mouth to speak when a large finger tapped on his shoulder. The small saiyajin
looked up to see Goku staring down at him w/big sparkily eyes and a little smile, " Little Veggie want some iced tea? " he
asked, holding out a ouji-sized cup.
Vegeta sighed, " Sure. " he said, taking it from Goku.
" I made it just now. Enjoy! " the larger saiyajin said happily, then sat down and nearly slumped out of his chair.
Vegeta and Chi-Chi looked over at him, conserned.
" Are you oh-kay, Kakarrotto? "
" I'm just feeling really sleepy. I don't think I could make anything else for Veggie and Chi-chan right now or I'll
*yawn* start to get a headache. " Goku felt his eyelids grow heavy.
Vegeta drank some of his iced tea, " Well, Kaka-chan. Why don't you take a nice long nap out here in the warm spring
air, it'll do you good. " he smirked evilly.
" Yeah. " Goku smiled, then yawned, closing his eyes, " Little Veggie's always so good with advice... " he trailed
off, then several seconds later began to let out repeating, soft snores.
Vegeta happily stood up, " I'm done. "
" You know, no matter where you are, if he feels like it, Go-chan could probably use his mental powers to turn you
into a cuddily, mush-brained, clueless pet. "
" ... "
" ... "
" And I'm taking Kakarrotto with me. " Vegeta said in the same tone as before, grabbing the sleeping saiyajin by the
arm and teleporting home.
" WHAT--HEY!! YOU COME BACK HERE WITH HIM!! " Chi-Chi screamed, then sneezed, " Stupid pollen. " she rubbed her nose,
then pointed in the general area of the garage, " TO THE CAR!! "

" Wow, so you're saying Goku-san can create things with his MIND now? " Mirai Trunks said as he, Vegeta, chibi Trunks
, and Goten gathered around the living room. Vegeta had layed Goku down on the biggest couch.
" Correct. It's like the brain's version of your body creating ki. " Vegeta explained.
" Toussan's so cool! " Goten chirped.
Chibi Trunks watched as a large trail of drool dripped out of the sleeping Goku's mouth and onto the couch, " Yah,
he's 'cool' alright. " he said sarcastically.
" Don't you mock Kakarrotto! " Vegeta growled at him, " He could turn us all into brain-dead idiots on command if he
figures out how to use this new technique properly! Do you want that!! To be walking around in YOUR OWN DROOL!! "
" No sir. " chibi Trunks shuddered at the thought of himself looking stupid.
" I don't think we have to worry too much, Toussan. " Mirai said, " I mean, if he's just starting to get this trick
to work now, he can't possibly be a threat until he's mastered it, obviously. And if you count in the years he's known about
how it works til the day he could actually START to have the technique work for him....it'll be DECADES before Goku
completely masters this. "
Vegeta looked uncertain, " Yes, but, this IS Kakarrotto we're talking about. "
" ... " everyone else paused.
" Oh yeah... " Chibi Trunks trailed off, " Mr. SSJ3. "
" Exactly! " Vegeta nodded, " And that is why I propose we all avoid asking Kakarrotto to demonstrate ANY of this
newfound ability. He'll eventually become rusty with it and further delay or even stop him from becoming a saiyajin version
of Shenlong. "
" You mean my dad's gonna grow antlers? " Goten blinked, confused.
" ... " Vegeta sweatdropped, " I'm not going to even satisfy that with a response. "
" *YAWWWWN* " Goku let out a huge yawn, then sat up, nearly choking on the boatloads of spit in his mouth, " GAH!! "
he coughed a bit, then looked over at the four pairs of eyes staring at him, " Oh, hi everybody! " he smiled sleepily,
" How'd I get here? "
" I brought you here so Onna wouldn't trick you into using your new powers against me. " Vegeta explained.
" Aw, that's nice of you Veggie. " Goku said, still tired, " But Chi-chan wouldn't try and make me use my powers for
evil. " he chuckled.
Vegeta opened his mouth to say something only to have a rather heavy plate plop onto his head. The ouji looked up
and took the plate off to see it had a large slice of chocolate cake on it.
" Wow! " Goten said in awe.
Vegeta looked over at Goku for an explaination.
" Veggie looked hungry. " Goku shrugged, smiling.
" Umm, my stomach's fine for the moment, Kakarrotto. I'm not really that hungry. " the ouji said with a weak smile,
then glanced over at chibi Trunks, " You want it? "
" No way! I don't know where he popped that out of. " Trunks exclaimed.
" I'LL TAKE IT! " Goten chirped, grabbing the plate of cake from Vegeta. He shoved the whole thing in his mouth at
once, " Mmm, cakey! "
Chibi Trunks watched him uneasily, " You sure you should be eating that? "
::Just remember the plan and everything should be fine:: Vegeta mentally informed the others. They nodded.
::What plan, Veggie?:: Goku's voice said in the ouji's head.
" Nothing. " the ouji said abuptly.
" MORE CAKE PLEASE! " Goten held out his plate.
" Baka Kaka-spawn! " Vegeta cursed, then blinked in surprise as a rather large chocolate cake appeared next to Goku.
The cake had a slice already cut out of it.
" Look Goten! It's the rest of the cake! " Goku said happily, picking it up.
" HOORAY!! " Goten cheered, then hopped up onto the couch, picked up the cake, and swallowed it all in one bite.
Chibi Trunks grinned, " Now THAT was cool! Do it again! "
" My tummy hurts.... " Goten groaned, holding his stomach with his hands.
" No kidding. " Mirai sweatdropped.
" Kakarrotto, we were all thinking maybe you should keep this whole 'manipulating matter' technique's use to a
minimum. After all it does tire you out a lot. " the ouji put on a fake smile, trying to shake away the thought of a
dummed-down version of himself thanks to Goku's new power.
" Well, maybe Veggie IS right... " Goku trailed off, " But it's so much FUN....but it's SO tiring... "
" Did I hear Mr. Goten's Daddy say something is fun? " another young voice said from behind the couch.
" Ohhh boy. " Trunks paled, " Come on Goten, let's go upstairs. It's that time again. "
" Time to throw up? " Goten offered, nauseated and turning light green as he hopped off the couch and followed Trunks
up the stairs.
" No, my sister's back there. " he replied, not turning his head around to see.
" Bura? " Goten blinked.
" No Goten, my invisible one. " Trunks remarked sarcastically, " Now come on! "
" ... " Goten stood there deep in thought for a moment, " You have an invisible sister? How come I've never seen her
before? "
Trunks sweatdropped, " Just stop talking and get up here. "
" K! " Goten smiled, then dashed up the stairs after him, but not without puking over the side of them before he
reached the top.
" Well, it could be worse. " Vegeta said to himself as he watched the boys run out of sight, " He COULD'VE gotten
ONNA'S personality genes. "
" 2 + 2 is 4, little Veggie! " Goku grinned.
" Good boy, Kakarrotto. You deserve a treat. " Vegeta rolled his eyes.
" What kind of treat little Veggie? " the larger saiyajin giggled impishly down at the smaller one.
" Umm...uhh....I'll, I'll bake you one...later.. " Vegeta stammered, his face bright red again.
" Kakarroujo! " Bura squealed, hopping over the top of the couch and onto the seat with him, " I am so happy to see
you again! You're our favorite guest here! " she smiled, " You're Toussan's favorite too, right Toussan? "
" ... " Vegeta turned his head away, avoiding eye-contact while he felt his face just heat up another 5 notches.
" Oh, Veggie brought me here cuz of my new trick! " Goku said, " Watch! " he focused on the table infront of him and
all of a sudden a bowl of m&m's candies appeared on the middle of it, " TA-DA!! "
Bura stared at the bowl with her jaw hanging open, " ...KAKARROUJO THAT IS SO AMAZING!! " she said excitedly, then
turned back from the candy to Goku, who was currently stuffing his face with the sweets, " Kakarroujo you never told me and
Toussan that you had ~*magical*powers*~!! "
" Oh brother! " Vegeta groaned, " Listen, Bura. Kakarrotto's new "magical powers" were just acquired earlier today
from a success in learning a technique that took him about a dozen years. When he uses it it causes him to get VERY TIRED,
VERY QUICKLY. And I'd rather not have Kakarrotto strain what little brain he has up in that kaka-skull of his. "
" Kakarroujo can you make a pretty oujo crown for yourself with your new powers? " she asked, grinning.
Goku nodded with a little smile on his face, then thought for a quick moment and an intricate-looking silver crown
appeared on his head, " Heeheehee, I am Veggie's oujo! "
" YOU ARE NOT! NOW GIVE ME THAT!! " Vegeta snapped, now back to normal but soon flushed in the cheeks as he grabbed
the crown from Goku, then did a double-take to see it had disappeared from his hands. The ouji looked down at the floor for
it, then back up at Goku and sweatdropped to see the crown right where it sat before Vegeta plucked it off Goku's head.
" Hahaha! " Bura clapped happily, " That's so cute! "
" Hee~~~ " Goku grinned.
" Ooh, Kakarrotto you take that off your head right now! You are NOT an oujo! " Vegeta snapped, walking towards him
only to suddenly yelp in surprise and something sprouted out of the floor and pushed him several feet into the air. The
ouji sat down and looked around, confused, " What the--? "
" It's a giant SUNFLOWER! " Bura gasped, all sparkily-eyed, " And right out of the floor! That's ADORABLE,
Kakarroujo! "
" HE'S NOT AN OUJO!!!! " Vegeta yelled from ontop of the sunflower, jumping off only to have an umbrella appear and
attach itself to the ouji's tank-top shirt's tag and gently float him confusedly down until Goku caught him and the umbrella
disappeared. The larger saiyajin hugged him tightly.
" Little Veggie's my FAVORITE ouji EVER! " Goku mused.
" I'm the only ouji you've ever MET, Kakarrotto. " Vegeta grumbled, still annoyed at what could have been a fierce
tackle attack cut down to a cutsey floating act, " ...and get that freakishly huge flower out of my living room--it's
blocking the tv. "
" Oh-kay Veggie! " Goku said happily as the flower promptly disappeared.
" Feelin tired yet? " the ouji asked curiously.
" Nope! Actually I'm feeling better than ever! " Goku shouted excitedly.
" Hooray for Kakarroujo! That means more candies and flowers and disappearing umbrellas! " Bura cheered.
" AND oujo crowns! " Goku pointed thoughtfully to the crown still on his head.
" You're NOT, the oujo, Kakarrotto. " Vegeta's face flushed lightly, " You're a PEASANT! "
" Am I ~*VEGGIE's*~ peasant? " Goku said w/big sparkily eyes.
" ...yes.... " the ouji squeaked out.
" AWWW!!! _THANK_ _YOU_ VEGGIE!!! " the larger saiyajin said, touched as he squeezed even tighter.
" *DING*DONG*DING*DONG!!! "
" Uhhhh...... " Vegeta felt his brain attempt to shake out of the numbed-up state it was currently in.
" I wonder who that could be visiting Veggie's house this time of day? " Goku thought outloud. Vegeta wiggled out of
the hug he was trapped in and quietly teleported closer to the door. He observed the peep-hole in the door, then grunted
as he stood on his toes to reach it only to have the peep-hole instantly disappear and re-appear at a lower section of the
door. The newer peep-hole location at a more comfortable level for the ouji. Vegeta glanced over his shoulder to see Goku
waving at him.
" Well, thank you Kakarrotto. " he smirked, " It's about time that kuso thing was at a reasonable height. " Vegeta
said while staring at the peep-hole. Goku beamed proudly. Vegeta squinted one eye shut and looked through the hole to see
an enraged, ravenous, psychotic, and murderous looking person glaring back at the door, " Ahh, it's Onna. " Vegeta
snickered. He teleported back to Goku and Bura, " Kakarrotto, we're going to be heading back to your house about now. We
can spar for a couple hours then head back here. ::Heh-heh, I'll have Onna driving back and forth between the two homes
while going crazy! I could keep this one up all day; or at least until Onna's car runs out of fuel:: " he thought to
himself, chuckling at the humorous mental images. He held out his arm, " Kakarrotto, teleport us home. That is, unless
you'd like me to-- "
" --no Veggie, lemmie do it! " the larger saiyajin said eagerly, grabbing Vegeta's arm and preparing to teleport.
" HEY! What about ME! " Bura pouted.
" Bura, if we were to bring you along you would do nothing but egg on Kakarrotto about the whole "oujo" thing.
The last thing I need right now is Kakarrotto getting all kinds of funky ideas and using his mental powers to make them
come to be! " Vegeta exclaimed.
" You mean--if I really wanted to, I could use my mind to make me Veggie's ~*oujo*~?? " Goku grinned widely.
" ...no. " Vegeta said bluntly after several nervous thoughts, " Besides you'll make a better servant-maid anyway.
Now let's go. "
" I would not! " Goku whined.
" Let's GO, Kakarrotto. "
" I bet I'd make a MUCH better oujo than a servant-maid anyday! " Goku exclaimed.
" You would not! You don't even meet one of the classifications anyhow so it wouldn't work no matter how hard you
tried! "
" Which qualification is THAT, Veggie? " Goku asked curiously, " I don't meet only one, huh? "
" AAAAAAARRRRRR!!!!! " a growl came from the front door. Goku froze.
" TELEPORT US KAKARROTTO!! " Vegeta snapped, " BURA HIDE UNDER THE COUCH TILL IT'S GONE! " he ordered, then
teleported along with Goku out of the house.
" OOOOOOOOOOOOUUUUUU-JIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!! " Chi-Chi roared, busting down the front door. Bura gulped from underneath
the couch.
" Uh-oh. "
/dl
" And here we are! " Goku said cheerfully as they appeared in his backyard.
" Good. " Vegeta said, then walked over to the door and opened it.
" Wait--where are you going? " the larger saiyajin asked, confused and saddened at the same time.
" I'm "going" to the bathroom. " Vegeta said, now inside the house and out of view.
" Aww....but what about sparring? " Goku pouted, cocking his head to peer inside.
" We'll spar after I'm done relieving my liquid waste, alright! " the ouji snapped, closing the bathroom door and
leaving Goku outside, " Baka, how does he expect me to fight him when my bladder's screaming to be emptied! " Vegeta
complained, " I can't wet my pants! ESPECIALLY not in battle and ESPECIALLY not infront of Kakarrotto! " he shuddered, " Ugh,
I can hear him now; "aww look out cute, little Veggie peed his pants' 'forget to wear your diapers today Veggie' insert
annoying kaka-giggle here. " Vegeta mocked while a loud tinkling sound could be heard in the toilet.
Several minutes passed.
Vegeta sighed in relief as he pulled his pants up over his briefs and contently exited the bathroom. He opened the
side-door leading into the Son home and nearly fell over at the sight infront of him. There was now a huge patch of the Sons
that used to be a grassy field now a miniture beach leading up to the river that ran down Mount Paozu. Vegeta blinked, his
mind drawing a blank, " Uhhhh.... " he looked over to his right, everything infront of the house was still covered in flowers
yet directly next to the beach, " Uhhhh.... "
" HI VEGGIE!! "
" AHH! " Vegeta jumped in surprise, then whipped around in a defensive position only to see Goku standing there in
swim-trunks and sunglasses.
" I got bored while you were gone so I decided to build a sandcastle. " Goku said happily, " But we don't have any
sand up here so instead I just turned part of my backyard into one with my special new powers! " he wiggled his fingers.
" ...that would explain it. " Vegeta said, momentarily gaining back his ability of speech.
Goku snapped his fingers, causing the trunks & sunglasses to disappear inplace of his regular orange and blue
fighting gi.
" Wow, you've been practicing while I was gone. " Vegeta looked impressed, " How long WAS I in there anyway? " he
cocked an eyebrow, turning his head back in the direction of the house.
" Oh, about 4 minutes. " Goku shrugged.
Vegeta's eyes bulged out of his head, " FOUR MINUTES?! _ONLY_ FOUR MINUTES?! " he gawked, " If that's what he can
learn in only four minutes just think what Kakarrotto will be able to do by the end of the WEEK! " Vegeta murmured quietly in
shock to himself, " I should get out of here. " he shivered to himself.
" Veggie gonna play or not? " Goku whined, bringing the ouji out of his deep thoughts.
" Haha, of course I'm going to play--I mean, spar! " Vegeta laughed nervously, then looked down at the sand, " Don't
you think you should turn this back into grass first, Kakarrotto? "
" But I've never sparred with Veggie at the beach before! " Goku grinned eagerly, " I'm not even sure I've taken
Veggie to the beach before? "
" No, you haven't. " Vegeta said, still uneasy with his peasant's newfound mental powers.
" Well I should take you this summer! We'll have SOOOO much fun! " the larger saiyajin clasped his hands together,
" I can even teach you how to make a sand castle! And how to surf! And how to do the hula!!! Oh BOY I bet Veggie'd have fun
doing the hula! "
" What's a hula? " Vegeta blinked, confused.
Goku bent down to his height, " I will tell little Veggie later. " he smiled, " Because now is for sparring! And what
good is sparring without somebody to spar WITH, right Veggie? " Goku said happily.
" Hmm, point taken. " Vegeta nodded, then yelped as a fist flew by his shoulder, the ouji cocking his head to the
right just in time, " I DIDN'T SAY START YET!! " he snapped, then blinked to see Goku was now gone.
" VEGGIE COME CATCH ME!! " Goku shouted, flying up into the air.
Vegeta snarled at not being the one to start. The ouji powered up and flew off after him, " ERRR, KAKARROTTO GET
BACK HERE!! "
/dl
" Evil little Ouji! WAIT'LL I GET MY HANDS ON YOU! I'LL RIP YOU LIMB FROM LIMB!!! " Chi-Chi roared as her car roared
down the road up, " That is, AFTER Goku's out of the basic viewing vicinity. " she thought outloud, then yelped as the car
suddenly slowed to a halt. Chi-Chi blinked, then opened the car door only to have mountains of sand flood the inside of the
vehicle. She yelped and quickly closed the door, a very confused look on her face, " Hmm... " she glanced upward at the small
glass window in the roof of the car, then opened it and squeezed out the top. Chi-Chi gawked at what looked like a semi-large
desert infront of her, " You've got to be kidding me. " she groaned, then jumped off the roof of her car and flew clumsily
in the direction of her house, " Goku's GOT to have done this, but WHY?! " Chi-Chi said outloud, then cried out as a small
figure suddenly slammed deep into the sand infront of her. She looked up to see Goku floating a dozen feet above her looking
as if he had just kicked something, " The Ouji! " Chi-Chi grinned.
" *GASP*! *HACK*! *HACK*! " Vegeta suddenly sat up out from under the sand, wheezing and coughing up sand. Chi-Chi
glared at the smaller saiyajin and slapped him across the face. Vegeta, still hacking, turned and snarled at her only to have
Chi-Chi dump an armsful of sand overtop of him, covering his head.
" Stupid Ouji! Stealing my Go-chan while he's sleeping and then making him turn my backyard into a sand pit! " she
growled, dumping more sand on the already covered ouji.
Meanwhile Goku was still floating way above the sand, " I wonder why Veggie hasn't come back up yet. " the large
saiyajin blinked, then teleported down below only to find Chi-Chi standing there instead of the ouji, " Oh, hi Chi-chan! " he
smiled.
Chi-Chi smiled back, " Hi sweetie, why don't we go inside and I'll fix you something to eat? " she said nicely.
" Have you seen Veggie? "
Chi-Chi instantly glowered, " Will you stop talking about him! Now come inside the house. " she tried to calm down.
Goku frowned in puzzlement, then let out a frightened squeal as a hand shot up from under the sand. A hand wearing a little
white glove.
" AHHH!!! " Goku cried out, " VEGGIE!! " he bent down on the sand and instantly began digging away towards where the
ouji was buried, " Don't worry Veggie! I'm coming! The important thing is not to panic. PLEASE DON'T PANIC!! " Goku said
while panicking himself, " It'll be alright Veggie just stay calm! I'll save you! I'll get you out of there I promise,
Veggie! " he reached both arms into the sand and pulled Vegeta out by the sides. The ouji threw up more sand, this time onto
Goku's gi. The larger saiyajin's eyes watered.
" *hack*! Kaka-- " Vegeta started to say only to be squeezed into a massive hug.
" WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH-HAAHHHH-HAAHHHH!!! I THOUGHT I'D NEVER SEE YOU AGAIN!!! " Goku sobbed, holding on
tightly, " MY LITTLE VEGGIE NEARLY BURIED ALIVE!!! " he cried.
" I WAS just "buried alive". " Vegeta sweatdropped, still covered in mass amounts of sand, " And it's all ONNA'S
fault for pushing me back down once I sat up and dumping more sand on my head! " he pointed at Chi-Chi.
Goku's eyes widened in terror as he once again tightened his death-grip on the smaller saiyajin while looking at
Chi-Chi in shock.
" Goku! He's LIEING! Oujis LIE. It's a known and given fact. " Chi-Chi explained, " Why, I didn't even know he was
under there either! "
" YOU SLAPPED ME ACROSS THE FACE FOR NO GOOD REASON!!! " Vegeta screamed angrily, only to have the larger saiyajin
start massaging the slapped part of the ouji's face; his cheek. Vegeta sweatdropped, " Kakarrotto how am I supposed to yell
at Onna while you're sitting her coddling me. " he asked flatly, his face turning a light red.
" Poor, poor little Veggie. " the larger saiyajin said comfortingly, now starting to pick the sand globs out of the
smaller one's hair, " Does it hurt? "
Vegeta groaned, a large sweatdrop on the side of his head, " I'm not a baby, Kakarrotto! "
" EXACTLY! And that's why you shouldn't be holding him like he's gonna DIE if you let go! " Chi-Chi added, annoyed.
" But--you tried to SUFFOCATE lil-lil Veggie! " Goku held the embarassed ouji protectively, " I could never just
stand by while Veggie chokes to DEATH! " he sniffled, tears forming in his eyes.
" Yeah Onna, you ATTEMPTED MURDERESS! Trying to ruin Kakay's only true source of happiness other than food. " Vegeta
smirked mockingly.
" YOU ARE _NOT_ HIS "ONLY TRUE SOURCE OF HAPPINESS" YOU SICK LITTLE OUJI!! " Chi-Chi yelled.
" AhhhHHHhhh...heh-heh-heh.. " the little ouji laughed dazed while he sat on Goku's lap with his head tilted back and
glowing bright red. Vegeta had a long trail of drool hanging out the side of his mouth while the larger saiyajin rubbed his
tummy, " Hahaha~~ "
Chi-Chi narrowed her eyes, " Goku STOP THAT! "
" But it's fun! " Goku chirped, smiling widely as he rubbed the ouji.
" Fine. Be that way. " she said, walking towards the house.
" Wh--where are you going, Chi-chan? " Goku asked, pausing from rubbing the ouji's stomach. Vegeta panted, trying to
catch his breath.
" I'm going to call Dende and ask if that wish we had revoked when the Ouji made you his servant-maid is still
available to wish for something else. " she said calmly, reaching for the doorknob.
" What wish are you going to make? " Goku blinked, curious.
" I'm going to wish you human, Goku. " Chi-Chi replied. The saiyajin's eyes bugged out of his head.
" CHI-CHAN NO!! "
" Listen Goku! If you become human then the Ouji won't have any claims to you! He can't force you to be his
servant-maid and you won't have to worry about that stupid tail of yours and we can go back to the way things were BEFORE
the Ouji! " Chi-Chi folded her arms stubbornly.
" I can't go back to before Veggie. I need my Veggie. Besides I don't wanna be human! I like bein a saiyajin. " Goku
pouted, " I like being Veggie's unoffical yet-to-be-named "oujo". "
" Wahh~~~ " Vegeta dribbled, his head still turned back and his face still glowing bright red.
" Well too bad! I've had enough of dealing with his existance! " Chi-Chi said, reaching for the doorknob.
" NO CHI-CHAAAN!! "
" I'm gonna do it! "
" NO! "
" Goku-- " she said, testy.
" CHI-CHAN GO AWAY FROM THE DOOR!!! " Goku cried.
" Then let go of the Ouji. "
" But he'll sink and drown in the sand! "
Chi-Chi reached for the doorknob.
" GO AWAY!!! "
" NO! YOU EITHER LET GO OF THAT OUJI AND MOVE HIM OFF OUR PROPERTY RIGHT NOW OR I CHECK UP SEEING HOW I CAN WISH YOU
HUMAN! " Chi-Chi warned.
" NO GO AWAY! I CAN'T LET GO OF VEGGIE! "
" Goku-- "
" GO AWAY!!! " Goku wailed as Chi-Chi grabbed the doorknob and turned it, " CHI-CHAN DON'T!!!!! NO NO NOOOO!!! "
" ..*poof*.. "
Goku and Vegeta stared at the door where Chi-Chi had just disappeared into thin air; their eyes bugged out of their
heads.
" Ch--Chi-chan? " Goku squeaked out, worried.
Vegeta quickly searched all nearby ki's for Chi-Chi's only to find it not on Earth or anywhere else for that matter,
::It's like she was just instantly wiped out of existance all because Kakarrotto kept saying 'go away'!:: he thought to
himself, then froze, ::Dear Kami, that IS what just happened! And, if Kakarrotto could make ONNA disappear, than he could
make--:: " AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! " Vegeta screamed in terror, pushing out of his hug with Goku and dashing off.
" VEGGIE! Come back! " Goku shouted. Vegeta froze, frightened of what might happen next, " Veggie help me find
Chi-chan! " he pleaded.
" THERE'S NO WHERE WE COULD FIND HER! You just zapped her out of existance with that power of yours! " Vegeta pointed
at him with a shakey hand, backing up.
" Veggie don't joke like that! " Goku gasped, " I would never do that to Chi-chan! "
" YES YOU DID! YOU JUST MADE HER COMPLETELY DISAPPEAR! CHECK FOR HER KI! IT NO LONGER EXISTS EVEN IN OTHERWORLD! "
Vegeta exclaimed.
Goku felt hard for Chi-Chi's ki, then gulped when he realized he really WAS unable to find it. He glanced over at
Vegeta with fright.
" Kaka-rrotto? " Vegeta said cautiously. The larger saiyajin opened his mouth.
" AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "

3:32 AM 3/1/2003
END OF PART 1
Chuquita: I bet you weren't expecting THAT to happen, were you? (grins)
Vegeta: (happy ouji) ONNA IS _GONE_!
Chuquita: Temporarily.
Vegeta: (flatly) What do you MEAN, temporarily.
Chuquita: That, and this is an alternate timeline so the Chi-Chi that just disappeared wasn't the one you deal with everday.
Goku: *Whew*! That is a relief.
Chuquita: One of the reviewers for my last fic, Afrodite, suggested I have King Bejito and Bardock guest star in a future
Corner if I hadn't done it already; which I haven't. So everyone expect them to be guests in either the next story's Corner
or the one after that (all depends on which story comes after this) As for what we're doing right now, we're going to present
lyrics of a different actual dbz song each Corner for this story. First off is the lyrics to the Veggie song I asked the
audiance's song-title translation for. First off I'd like to thank everyone who answered the question for me: Rissa of the
Saiyajin, Kyoko-chan, Ouji Chan, and Arriow all knew the translated title for "Vegeta-sama no oryouri Jigoku". Which
translates into "Lord Vegeta's Cooking Hel*". I followed the link Kyoko-chan put in the review and there was also a whole
bunch of other translated dbz songs; some of which I'm going to post the lyrics to in future chapters, such as one where
Gohan and Chi-Chi sing karaoke, and another where Piccolo complains to Gohan about his whistling and goes temporarily insane.
The complete title is called "Lord Vegeta's Cooking Hel*: Okonomiyaki Recipe".
Goku: It's Veggie singing while cooking a japanese pizza!
Chuquita: As bizarre as that sounds.
Vegeta: (slightly insulted) What's so "bizarre" about it?
Chuquita: Well, for one thing, I had no idea you could cook.
Vegeta: (cocks an eyebrow)
Chuquita: I mean, I had you being able to cook in "Eye Spy" but I never knew you had offical cooking-knowledge before.
Goku: (grins) Veggie can cook even better than Chi-chan!
Vegeta: (boastfully) Why YES, I CAN cook better than Onna...
Chuquita: (wryly) (to Son) That's all he needs, another ego boost.
Goku: Heeheehee, leg-o my eg-o. Haha, waffles.
Chuquita: I've been experimenting with the basic html fanfiction allows us to use (cuz they keep ripping up all my tabs and
just started getting rid of the paragraph double spaces) So I'd like to present the lyrics to Veggie's cooking song (slightly
censored cuz I wanna keep the PG rating) in BOLD.
bVeggie's Cooking Song
"Now, you better get good and ready

Goku: (sweatdrops) Sheesh little Veggie, you think you used the "ba" word enough times?
Vegeta: One must prepare lunch the same way one prepares for battle!
Goku: With mayonnaise?
Chuquita: Heh-heh. Veggie likes mayonnaise on his pizza.
Vegeta: (annoyed) And what's so wrong with mayonnaise?
Chuquita: (chuckling) Nothing, it's just that when I think of pizza toppings I normally don't think of MAYONNAISE.
Goku: Heeheehee.
Chuquita: I mean, I grant it is a japanese version OF the pizza, but doesn't warm mayonnaise SMELL? Is the dish even kept
warm?
Vegeta: (smirks) You see, this is why I'm a master chef and you're not.
Chuquita: Hey, I can make a pizza too.
Goku: (holds up Chu's cell phone) Yeah, she's got Domino's and Pizza Grill on her speed dial!
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) Give me THAT! (swipes her phone back)
Vegeta: Heh-heh-heh. (snickers)
Goku: MY favorite lines were "Ooooh, next we have "pig meat"!" and "Oh blast it, I just completely forgot the mayonnaise".
Vegeta: (dryly) You like the "ooooh's", don't you Kakarrotto.
Goku: (smiles) (nods) That part was VERY CUTE, little Veggie.
Vegeta: (embarassed) Uh-huh.
Chuquita: (to audiance) Hope you liked the song everybody! I think somebody gave me the link to that song, I'll see if I can
find it and post it so all can hear! (grins) There's a manga of this song here (copy up to "wings" in second link, then add
ueo and then . and html)
And there's a link to the song wild-swans.net/wings/VegetaSamaNoOryouriJigoku.mp3 (Arriow's link)
Goku: (excitedly) Sing for us, Veggie!
Vegeta: (sweatdrops) Uhh...maybe later.
Goku: Oh. (happily) (singing) On the 7th day of Christmas, my true love gave to me! Seven swans-a-swimming, Six Veggies
singing, FIVE GOLDEN RIII--ipe!! [Veggie shoves a glob of mayonnaise in his mouth]
Vegeta: (groans) Please Kakarrotto..don't sing.
Goku: (grins) But I have such a bee-uu-ti-ful singing voice little Veggie!
Vegeta: (sarcasm) I'm sure you do.
Goku: (w/big sparkily eyes) Reeeeallllly, Veggie?
Vegeta: (light red) Umm...uhhhh....(turns to audiance)...goodbye!
Goku: (pouts) Veggie that's cheating!
Vegeta: (smirks) I know.

Quote of the Week: -from "Spongebob Squarepants"
Gary the Snail: Here's one YOU might know; there once was a man from Peru, who dreamed he was eating his shoe.
He woke with a fright, in the middle of the night, to find that his dream had come true.
Chuey's Corner:
Chuquita: Welcome readers and reviewers to a very interesting requested fic!
Goku: (grinning ear-to-ear) I get psychic mental powers!
Vegeta: (groans) And I get a headache.
Chuquita: But that's for the story, not today's Corner. Today we're celebrating the "joys of music".
Goku: And singing! (grins at Veggie)
Vegeta: (turns his head away) Oh dear God....
Goku: I heard Veggie sing-a-song and now I want to sing a-long!
Vegeta: (snorts) No you don't.
Goku: (cheerful) Yes I do.
Vegeta: No you DON'T!
Goku: Yes I do!
Vegeta: You don't even know what the song I sang was about!!
Chuquita: (to Son) Don't let that stop you.
Goku: YAY!!
Vegeta: PLEASE, Chu, don't encourage him!
Chuquita: (humoring Goku) (to Veggie) But he wants to sing with you *SO MUCH* (snickers) [patting Goku on the shoulders]
Goku: [w/super-big psychotic grin on his face] (squeals) VEGGIESONGS FOR ME!!!
Vegeta: (flatly) Thanks a lot, Chu.
Chuquita: (satisfied grin) You're welcome. [pulls out a tapeplayer and sets it on the desk, then turns it on]
[snappy, repetitive, determined-sounding music comes out of the tapeplayer]
Goku: (blinks) What's that? [points to speakers]
Chuquita: That, my friends, is the offical Veggie theme-song!
Goku: (w/big sparkily eyes) My little Veggie has his very own **THEME*SONG**???
Vegeta: (face turning red) [covers his eyes with his hands and turns away] OHHHhhhhhh....
Chuquita: That's right! It turns out in the japanese version of your show many of the main characters have their very own
theme songs. The site I got this off of (and have yet to find the place (Travegeta's) again) had Veggie's theme song as well
as several other non-vocal songs including Chi-Chi's theme song.
Vegeta: (opens his mouth to say something)
Goku: Veggie don't be mean!
Vegeta: (closes his mouth) (snorts)
Chuquita: Chi-Chi's was off the server at the time so I couldn't download hers. I've heard Veggie's, Piccolo's and Gohan's
theme songs though.
Goku: (eagerly) What about mine?
Chuquita: I don't know what yours sounds like.
Goku: (pouts) Aww...
Vegeta: (sarcasm) Don't worry, Kakarrotto, I'm sure it's some nice, sweet, soft, cute-and-fuzzy sounding bit of
musical-torture that my ears luckily are spared from hearing for the moment.
Goku: (smiles at Veggie) Wow little Veggie, you really think my theme song would sound THAT amazing and wonderful!! That's
such a KIND thing for you to say about me!
Vegeta: (nervous laughter) D--don't be a baka, Kakarrotto. I was being sarcastic.
Goku: (still smiling, touched) What does that mean?
Vegeta: (sweatdrops) Nevermind.
Goku: Well I LIKE Veggie's theme-song! (whistles to the music)
Vegeta: (groans) Oh brother.
Chuquita: Today's corner "theme" was inspired by the Veggie theme song, by "Vegeta-sama no oryouri Jigoku" (the song I
mentioned in the last story's last chapter where the japanese Veggie sings) a clip of Piccolo's old dub va singing Brak's
"I'm a Cucumber" song in Piccolo's voice surrounded by a backdrop allowing it to appear it was dubbed that way, AND Son-kun's
self-patented "Heeheehee" song from sub episode 274.
Goku: (still whistling) Do doo do-do do do-do do doodoodoo, do doo do-do do do-do do doodoodoo, do doo do-do do---wow, this
song IS stubbornly repetitive, yet catchy.
Chuquita: Just like Veggie.
Goku: (grins) YEAH! _JUST_ _LIKE_ _VEGGIE_!!!
Vegeta: (groans; resting his head in his hands and slowly shaking it)
Goku: (pokes Veggie) Veggie wanna get up and dance with me?
Vegeta: (bluntly) NO.
Goku: (pouts) Aww, come on little Veggie! It'll be FUN!
Vegeta: NO!
Goku: (eyes all watery) Buh Veh-gee~~
Vegeta: NO! THE LAST TIME I "DANCED" WITH YOU, WE HAD GOGETA!!!
Goku: (blinks) ...
Vegeta: ...
Chuquita: [inches her chair slightly away from Veggie]
Vegeta: (sweatdrops as it suddenly hits him) Kuso!....That, didn't come out right.
Goku: (giggling at him) Heeheeheeheehee!
Vegeta: OH YOU SHUT UP!!!
Goku: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! WHEE~~!!! HAHA! (to Chu) I love it when Veggie gets all flustered and says stuff that comes out
like it should mean other stuff that isn't what Veggie originally intended to mean when he said it!
Vegeta: (cocks his head) Eh?
Goku: Silly Veggie! (grins) [pats Veggie on the head] He is such a fast learner.
Vegeta: (sweatdrops)
Chuquita: And now we'd like to introduce Part 1 of "Mind Over Matter". A story where Son-kun gains extordinary psychic
powers and becomes slightly spoiled by them.
Vegeta: (to audiance) The lesson here today is never give Kakarrotto any type of mental power that's bigger than his brain.
Chuquita: Remember, this fic occurs in a slightly different timeline (those who read "Happily Ever After" know that) so what
happens to this Goku, Veggie, etc, doesn't effect my regular fics timeline.
Summary: Goku has finally mastered a difficult technique taught to him by the aliens he learned to teleport from. The ability
to manipulate those around him with his mind! Unfortunately, when Goku becomes angered, his mind causes the source of the
anger to disappear out of existance! What happens when the large saiyajin becomes too spoiled by his newfound powers to zap
up whatever foods and toys he desires? He traps his the last unzapped buddy remaining in his house! Will Veggie be able to
calm him down before HE gets zapped away too? Will Veggie even be able to escape the Son home un-noticed to even get help?
Will anyone notice he's gone?
Goku: (to Veggie) I have GREAT mental strength!
Vegeta: Sure you do, Kakarrotto.
Goku: (bends spoon with his mind)
Vegeta: (unimpressed) So?
Goku: (Bends chainsaw with his mind)
Vegeta: (blinks in shock) ...nevermind.
*****************************************************************************************************************************
" Vehhhh-gee. Oh VEGGIE! Where ARE you? " and over-eager voice giggled from inside the small, rounded, mountain house
Vegeta had just run out of. The little ouji made a wild dash over a nearby hill, panic-stricken by his persuer yet hopeful he
might actually escape this time. He looked down at the small, ouji-sized blue gi he had on and shuddered.
" Someplace YOU won't think to look, THAT'S for sure. " Vegeta snickered quietly, a smirk on his face. He could feel
the other ki still in the house searching wildly for him, then exitting and looking around the front and back yards. He had
been plotting this ve-getaway for several weeks now since he had met another version of himself via Mirai Trunks's time
machine with Goku. The sole difference between them was this other timeline's Goku had no super-mental powers, thereby
keeping his own alternate as the same cool-headed, cocky ouji he would've been had he not been pushed to the breaking point
by a very spoiled psychic saiyajin.
:::" That Veggie looked almost sad to be going home. " Goku cocked his head.
" OF COURSE HE WAS SAD THAT OTHER YOU IS USING HIM AS A PUPPET AND A PLAYTHING AND WHO KNOWS WHAT ELSE HE DOES TO
HIM!!! " Vegeta yelled angrily, then spat, " I should've put that other me out of his misery when he had the chance! At
least he would've died a warriors death instead of lost his sanity playing cuddle-toy to that psycho-version of you. ":::
" Well NO MORE! " the ouji laughed proudly, " I'm getting out of this kaka-created playground and getting my dignity
back RIGHT NOW!! " a grin graced his over-stressed-looking face. Vegeta looked out in excitement to see a city down below
the hill he was standing on, " People... " the small saiyajin said in shock, then nearly squealed, " PEOPLE WHO AREN'T
KAKARROTTO!! PEOPLE WHO CAN HELP ME!! PEOPLE WHO CAN'T PLACE MIND-CONTROL OVER ME AND MAKE ME SING BABY-SONGS AND DO
PRIMITIVE LITTLE DANCES FOR THEIR OWN ENJOYMENT!! FREEDOM!!! "
" Tsk tsk tsk. "
Vegeta froze in terror.
" Little Veggie is not trying to run away again, is he? " the very same voice that once made the ouji excited to hear
was now the same one that now ironically struck fear though his entire body. The owner of the voice teleported infront of
Vegeta, " You weren't trying to LEAVE me, where you Veggie? " Goku asked innocently.
" Nuh-nuh, no. NO, I wasn't LEAVING, haha, of course not, Kakarrotto. " Vegeta laughed nervously, backing up slightly
Goku steped towards him, narrowing his eyes, " Little Veggie knows he can't go too far from home or he'll get hurt
or end up in danger and I won't be able to save him. Veggie DOES know that, right? "
" Umm, yes? " the ouji grinned cheesily, sweat dripping down the side of his face.
" Well if lil Vedge'ums knew that then why is he out here? " Goku said suspicously, cornering Vegeta at the edge of
the hill.
" Uhhhh... "
" Veggie doesn't wanna, go AWAY, does he? " the larger saiyajin sniffled, " Veggie doesn't wanna leave me all alone
up here, does he? "
" It's not that, Kakarrotto, it's just, " Vegeta stammered.
" Veggie doesn't want me to send him away, does he? " Goku said sadly. Vegeta's pupils grew as wide as saucers,
" Because I can send Veggie away. Veggie can find out where everyone else has gone. " he grabbed the ouji by each arm, " But
I love my little Veggie so much I'd just hate to do that. " Goku rubbed his eyes.
" Heh-heh-heh, yes, I AM very important you know, it'd be a real, heh-heh, shame alright. " Vegeta said, feeling
slightly braver.
Goku looked down and glared at the ouji, then smirked, " Hey Veh-geee~~ " he raised his arms. Vegeta's eyes widened.
" ...AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "
/dl
2 Months Earlier...
" Oh Ka-karrotto! Open up! " Vegeta said, unusually cheerful. He knocked on the door to the house several times only
to have it creak open.
" Go away, Ouji. He's busy! " Chi-Chi hissed, then turned to slam the door only to have Vegeta wedge his foot between
the door and the doorway.
" "Busy"? Doing WHAT? " the ouji scoffed, then smirked, " I think you're lying, Onna. "
" What! "
" I think you're just "saying" that Kakay is busy when in reality he's probably asleep or watching TV or eating or
something that YOU don't want ME in intrude upon. " Vegeta boasted.
" Hence the term, "busy". " Chi-Chi said mockingly. She slammed the door hard, causing Vegeta to let out a yelp of
pain and yank his foot out from the doorway.
" Oww... " the small saiyajin rubbed his bruised foot, " Baka Onna. " he grumbled, then took a deep breath and
shouted, " KAKARROTTO!!! KAKARROTTO OPEN UP!! IT'S ME!! VEGGIE!! ONNA JUST TRIED TO _ASSASSIGNATE_ ME WITH YOUR FRONT DOOR! "
" Ugh. " Chi-Chi groaned from inside, then locked the door.
" ... "
" Hmmph. " Vegeta snorted after recieving no response. The ouji wandered around the house, then stopped when he
noticed the large kitchen window wide open. Vegeta looked upwards and grinned, " Thank you, Kaka-chan. " he snickered and
hopped inside, " Kakarrotto!! " he called out, " Kakarrotto I've brought you a present! It's very *SPECIAL* and *RARE* and
from our *HOMEPLANET*!! " Vegeta said as he walked around the room, " OH KAKARROTT--oh. " the ouji paused to see Goku sitting
indian-style on the kitchen table with his eyes closed. The larger saiyajin sitting in a meditative stance very similar to
Piccolo's.
" Ouji! Get out of my house! " Chi-Chi said as she rushed into the room and tried to push him back out the window,
" Goku is on the verge of mastering this technique that he's been trying to get right ever since those people who taught him
to teleport tried to teach him this trick back before he even returned from fighting Freezer! "
" You don't even remember what the aliens or the planet's name was, do you Onna? " Vegeta smirked, amused, " However,
I'm not surprised why Kakay stayed with them so long. I knew you were unfit to take care of such a 'caring' peasant the
moment Porunga said Kakarrotto didn't want to come back to Earth and you took out that sword and threatened to slice him into
little bite-sized kaka-pieces. " he exclaimed overdramatically, " Poor, POOR little Kakay. All alone in space. But did YOU
go out there to save him? NO! You CRUEL, EVIL Onna. " Vegeta mock-sobbed.
" THAT'S BECAUSE YOU STOLE MY SPACESHIP AND FLEW OFF AFTER HIM BEFORE I GOT A CHANCE TO EVEN GET MY SPACESUIT BACK
ON AGAIN!!! " Chi-Chi screamed.
" Ha! A likely story! " Vegeta scoffed, " What would Kakay think of you if he knew you only cared about GOHAN'S
safety and didn't even give a crap about the very saiyajin who's seed allowed for his creation? "
" Why don't you ask him yourself after he's finished! " Chi-Chi said shortly.
" In fact, I remember hearing from Bulma that directly after the first time I fought Kakarrotto that you took him and
Gohan into a helecopter and coddled the little kaka-spawn while you let Kakarrotto; who was in an EXCRUSITATING, AGONIZING,
TWISTING, TORRENT OF PAIN lie on the FLOOR, bleeding to DEATH! "
Chi-Chi narrowed her eyes at Vegeta.
" I see you have no response. Typical. That's because it's TRUE! " he pointed at her, then looked over at Goku, " Did
you hear that, Kakarrotto-chan! "
" You're not one to talk, stupid little Ouji. YOU WERE THE ONE WHO BEAT HIM TO A PULP IN THE FIRST PLACE!!! " Chi-Chi
shrieked at the top of her lungs, " I DON'T SEE HOW HE CAN EVEN FORGIVE YOU FOR ALL THAT YOU EVIL, CREEPY LITTLE MONSTER!! "
" Chi-CHAN!! "
Chi-Chi paused, then looked over at a saddened Goku, " Chi-chan, can you be more quiet. This trick is really hard and
I can't perform it with you yelling at little Veggie. "
" Ha! Well, you must've COMPLETELY missed the part where Onna tried to JAM MY FOOT IN THE DOOR and BREAK IT! "
Goku looked to his right and yelped to see Vegeta suddenly next to him, sitting in the same position, " Little Veh--
but-- " he looked back at the floor to see Vegeta standing there, waving, then quickly turned back and gawked to see the
ouji in the same spot on the table as if he hadn't even moved, " Aww, little Veggies are silly! " he laughed, giving the
smaller saiyajin a hug, " What are you doing here today, little Veggie? "
" Well, Kakarrotto. I just happened to drop by with a present for my favorite peasant. " Vegeta shrugged it off,
smirking.
" A present for me? " Goku grinned, " From little Veggie? For no good reason but because he ~*LUVS*~ me? "
Vegeta blinked, his face bright red, " Umm...hai. Because I l--I mean, for no good reason. Of course. " he shook the
redness from his face, then pulled out a capsule, " Behold! A gift sent to me from my father from our homeplanet which no
longer exists but he managed to ship this gift to me via Baba. " he dropped the capsule to expose what looked like a box of
instant hot chocolate. The letters on the box were all in saiyago while a large picture of the royal seal decorated the back
of the box, " It is a box of the official secret-recipe-formula saiyajin hot cocoa! " Vegeta turned the box upside-down and
pointed to a small label, " See? Made on Bejito-sei. "
" WOW!!! " Goku gasped excitedly, " REAL LIVE VEGGIE-FOOD!! "
" Oh brother. " Chi-Chi groaned, shaking her head.
" That's right, "real live *VEGGIE*-food". " Vegeta smirked, " It's VERY good. Did I mention secret? "
" GIMMIE!! " the larger saiyajin reached out to grab the box only to have Vegeta pull it away. Goku cried out and
nearly fell off the table.
" I will. But ONLY if you tell me what you are doing SITTING on the kitchen table of your house impersonating the
namekian. " Vegeta nodded.
" Well, I'm trying to learn a new trick! " Goku chirped, quickly snagging the box of hot cocoa away from the ouji.
" Why would you order hot cocoa in May?! " Chi-Chi sweatdropped.
" Late postage. " Vegeta muttered in replay.
" And after I master this technique, I'll be able to grant wishes that're practically on-par with Shenlong's!! " the
large saiyajin grinned. Vegeta's eyeballs nearly shot out of his head.
" Y-y-y-y-YOU!? KAKARROTTO? Granting wishes?! To ME~~~? " the ouji said as an evil smirk covered his face and the
little gears in his brain started to turn.
" If your wish is for stuff, I mean. I can't make Veggie immortal or anything. " Goku nodded.
" Ha, he already had Shenlong to grant THAT one. " Chi-Chi threw a glare in the ouji's direction. Vegeta grinned in
response, " Goku, you don't think you could UNgrant that wish he made back in October and UN-immortal him and yourself, could
you? " she asked.
" I dunno, " Goku whined, " It's a hard technique to begin with Chi-chan! This trick requires me sending some of my
body's ki temporarily into my brain to increase my mental powers. " he explained, " It hurts! "
Vegeta snickered, " Kakarrotto probably has trouble even finding what part of his body his brain is in. "
" HE DOES TOO, OUJI! " Chi-Chi exclaimed, then turned to Goku, " It's in your head, dear. "
Goku sweatdropped, " I knew THAT! "
" Of course I did. I was just checking. " she said warmly, then turned back to the smaller saiyajin, " Haha! Listen
to this, Ouji! Once my Go-chan learns how to create objects with his mind I won't need to spend any money ever again! AND
you'll have nothing to offer him that he can't whip up himself! If I wanted a brand new sofa I saw in a catalog I could
merely show Goku a picture of it and he could make a copy of the exact sofa appear in our living room! For FREE! "
" Isn't that stealing? " Vegeta smirked.
" Oh! I don't wanna STEAL, Chi-chan. " Goku shook his head, worried.
" IT WON'T BE STEALING! " Chi-Chi said, " All you'll be doing is making a completely NEW sofa. Don't you want a new
sofa to sit on? And a brand new big plush bed? And how about a refridgerator twice the size of our current one? We can have
all this and more once you learn how to bring them into being with that wonderful little brain of yours! " she encouraged
him.
" You sound like a commercial. " Vegeta sweatdropped.
" Could it be a water bed? " Goku smiled wider at Chi-Chi.
" Of course! "
" With little fishies swimming around inside? "
" Yes, yes! "
" And I can open up a hatch inside the bed and take some out to snack on whenever I like!? " Goku's grin reached an
almost insane proportion.
" Sure, Go-chan! Go forth! The WORLD is your canvas! " Chi-Chi proclaimed overdramatically.
" I like painting, Chi-chan! " Goku said excitedly.
" Then let's get moving! "
" YAY!! " Goku cheered, hopping the window outside, " I'M GONNA MAKE STUFF FOR ME AND CHI-CHAN!!! "
" ....wow. My sweet Go-chan is going to make us all filthy stinkin rich! " Chi-Chi smiled at him admiringly, " And
here I always thought it would be Gohan. "
" Somehow, I doubt Kakarrotto's brain will be able to produce nothing more than an oddly shaped melon. " Vegeta
commented.
" OH WHAT DO YOU KNOW OUJI! " Chi-Chi snapped, then went back to musing, " Go-chan's going to make me even richer
than YOU ARE! " she grinned victoriously, " Who knew all that martial arts of his would pay off like THIS! "
/dl
" Hnn...HNNN.....oh I can't do it! " Goku pouted as he sat down on the grass 5 minutes away from his home, " There's
gotta be something simple I could try. But what? " the larger saiyajin rested the side of his cheek against his hand, looking
out at the fields before him, " ...you know what we never have many up here of, flowers. " Goku smiled, " .....YEAH! I'll
make a flower! That sounds easy! " he said cheerfully, then focused his attention on the grass infront of him. The larger
saiyajin went into a half-meditative state as he started sending part of his body's ki towards his brain while continuing to
focus on the grass, " Errrr... "
" *POOF*! "
Goku blinked. As if out of nowhere a single rose appeared before him, looking like it had been growing there for
several months, " ...uhh.... " the saiyajin stared blankly, then suddenly grinned as it what he had just done hit him across
the face, " AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! " Goku squealed excitedly.
" What are you so happy about? " a familiar voice asked, teleporting behind him.
Goku spun around, " VEGGIE LOOK!!! " he grabbed the little ouji and pushed his head forward until he was staring the
flower down.
" Hai Kakarrotto. That is a flower. " Vegeta said flatly.
" Nuh-uh. It's not JUST a flower. It's MY flower! " Goku let go of Vegeta's head, then picked him up under the arms,
" Little Veggie I just made this flower appear all on my own with my new trick! Isn't it pretty! I'm so happy!!! " he hugged
Vegeta tightly, " Chi-chan will be SO proud of me! "
" Are you...sure...you made that, Kakarrotto? " Vegeta squeaked out, his face starting to flush red; Goku still
hugging him.
" I DID make it Veggie! With my mind! And I could do it again too! See! " Goku concentrated on the grass again and
out popped a daisy and several blossoms. Vegeta's jaw hung open as Goku's grip slipped on the ouji and he plopped down onto
the grass, " And I can put some there and here and here and there and--WOW!!! " Goku said in awe after just pointing his arms
in every direction around them. Nearly the entire mountain-side was now covered in a variety of wild-flowers, " Look little
buddy, it is beauuutiful. " the large saiyajin mused.
Vegeta stood up, only to find the plants he was presently surrounded by were even taller than himself. The ouji
grumbled and floated above them to where he could see, mainly at Goku's height. Vegeta nearly fell over at the number of
flaura, " Kakarrotto. " he sweatdropped, " Why did you just do that! " he groaned.
" Because... " Goku mumbled in an astonished voice, " BECAUSE I CAN! " he cheered, then pointed at the ouji and
zapped a small flower in his hair. Vegeta looked up and sweatdropped at it, " EEEEEE~~~!!! " Goku grinned, then grabbed
Vegeta and squeezed him again, " ~~**KAWAIII**~~!!! " the larger saiyajin squealed, snuggling.
Vegeta twitched, somewhere between disgust and the mind-numbing feeling in his brain due to the fact that he was now
glowing bright enough to count as a major light source. The ouji reached up and tossed the little flower out his hair only
to have Goku zap another one in its place.
" This is SO COOL! " Goku said, looking out at his creations.
" You don't think you could make anything else besides 'flowers', do you Kakarrotto? " Vegeta asked wryly.
" I don't know... " Goku trailed off, " LET'S GO BACK HOME AND TRY!!! "
/dl
" Heehee, heeheehee. " the little voice behind Vegeta giggled. The ouji did his best to ignore it as he continued on
walking back to Goku's house. The larger saiyajin had been quietly zapping multiple little flowers into the ouji's hair as
they went until it looked like he was wearing a type of flower headband.
" Bakayaro. " Vegeta grumbled, ::Just what he needs. The power the create flowers with his brain:: he thought
sarcastically just as they reached the house.
" Oh Veggie you look so ~*cute*~! You should see yourself in the mirror! " Goku awwed at the smaller saiyajin.
" I'll be sure to do that, Kakarrotto. " Vegeta remarked dryly, then knocked on the door.
" UGH! What is that SMELL! " Chi-Chi's voice came from behind the door. She opened it and yelped to see every bit of
the land before her covered in flowers.
" Heeheeheeheee! " Goku covered his mouth, trying to contain his giggles. Chi-Chi looked up at him curiously, then
down at Vegeta and saw the ouji now had a ring of flowers wrapped around his head, neck, wrists, ankles, and several around
his tail.
" Ha..haha.....AH-HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! " she burst into laughter, pointing at him. Vegeta groaned. Chi-Chi went
back inside laughing, then closed the door and re-opened it, calmed down, " Hello, Ouji. " she said, glaring at him for a
moment, then whipped out a camera, " SAY CHEESE!! "
" *click* "
Vegeta let out a yelp of surprise, his pupils dialating due to the sudden flash. He wobbled back to have Goku catch
him.
" Silly Veggie! " Goku smiled at the dazed little ouji.
" HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! " Chi-Chi began laughing again, only to freeze when a blast of ki hit her camera and exploded
it. She narrowed her eyes at a content Vegeta, " --jerk. "
" Hey Onna, guess what Kakay can do now. " Vegeta boasted, pointing to all the flowers behind him.
Chi-Chi stared for a moment, then grinned at Goku, " YOU DID THAT!! "
" UH-HUH UH-HUH UH-HUH! " Goku nodded eagerly, " So! What does Chi-chan think? "
" I think--it's WONDERFUL, Goku! " Chi-Chi said, kicking Vegeta out of the way and hugging onto Goku, " Just look at
them all! And if you can create flowers you can surely create many other things as well! We can now have EVERYTHING we desire
thanks you YOUR little brain! "
" Someone remind me why I come here again? " Vegeta said dryly, still laying on his side.
" Does lil-lil Veh-gee wanna come inside and have lunch with me? " Goku asked sweetly, bending down so he was in the
ouji's light, " Snacking with Veggie is so much more fun than snacking without him! "
" ... " Vegeta's face turned a light red as he suddenly remembered, " Oh, right. " he sat up, " Sure, let's go,
Kakarrotto. "
" Why don't we eat out here? It'll be MUCH nicer! " Goku smiled.
" Kaka--I'd rather not. " Vegeta grumbled, picking the flowers off his body.
" But look at the nice new outdoor table we have. " the larger saiyajin pointed off into the yard. Vegeta turned to
what would normally be a blank space but instead was a white table with a red and white sun-umbrella sticking out the top.
Four white chairs were set around the table and Chi-Chi was pouring two glasses of lemonade.
" Don't invite him over here, Goku! He can't have any! " she shouted.
Vegeta blinked, confused, " How did you--but that wasn't just th--you're a fast learner. " he commented, surprised.
" Why thank you little Veggie! " Goku smiled, then grabbed him by the wrist, " Here come have a snack with us! "
" GO-KU! " Chi-Chi said warningly.
" Little Veggie's hungry too, Chi-chan! " he exclaimed.
" Yeah Onna, buzz off. " Vegeta smirked, " After all, Kakay says so. Why, if he wanted I bet he could turn you into a
fly and I could swat you with my bare glove. "
" I wonder if I CAN turn people into things... " Goku trailed off, curious.
" DON'T PUT SUCH THOUGHTS INTO HIS BRAIN, OUJI! " Chi-Chi yelled.
" You're just worried Kakay will use his powers against you. " the ouji boasted, sitting down in one of the chairs.
" Goku would NEVER use ANY type of power against me! " Chi-Chi gawked, then looked over at Goku, " Would you,
sweetie? " she smiled.
" I wonder if I could make Veggie feel anymore huggable than he is now... " Goku thought to himself, smiling. Vegeta
paled, then stood up, " Or maybe act and look a little cuter... "
" I think I'll be going now. " the ouji said quickly.
" No, STAY. " Chi-Chi grinned evilly at Vegeta, who glared at her, " Goku would be SO DISAPPOINTED if you were to
leave NOW, Ouji. "
Vegeta snarled at her, then opened his mouth to speak when a large finger tapped on his shoulder. The small saiyajin
looked up to see Goku staring down at him w/big sparkily eyes and a little smile, " Little Veggie want some iced tea? " he
asked, holding out a ouji-sized cup.
Vegeta sighed, " Sure. " he said, taking it from Goku.
" I made it just now. Enjoy! " the larger saiyajin said happily, then sat down and nearly slumped out of his chair.
Vegeta and Chi-Chi looked over at him, conserned.
" Are you oh-kay, Kakarrotto? "
" I'm just feeling really sleepy. I don't think I could make anything else for Veggie and Chi-chan right now or I'll
*yawn* start to get a headache. " Goku felt his eyelids grow heavy.
Vegeta drank some of his iced tea, " Well, Kaka-chan. Why don't you take a nice long nap out here in the warm spring
air, it'll do you good. " he smirked evilly.
" Yeah. " Goku smiled, then yawned, closing his eyes, " Little Veggie's always so good with advice... " he trailed
off, then several seconds later began to let out repeating, soft snores.
Vegeta happily stood up, " I'm done. "
" You know, no matter where you are, if he feels like it, Go-chan could probably use his mental powers to turn you
into a cuddily, mush-brained, clueless pet. "
" ... "
" ... "
" And I'm taking Kakarrotto with me. " Vegeta said in the same tone as before, grabbing the sleeping saiyajin by the
arm and teleporting home.
" WHAT--HEY!! YOU COME BACK HERE WITH HIM!! " Chi-Chi screamed, then sneezed, " Stupid pollen. " she rubbed her nose,
then pointed in the general area of the garage, " TO THE CAR!! "
/dl
" Wow, so you're saying Goku-san can create things with his MIND now? " Mirai Trunks said as he, Vegeta, chibi Trunks
, and Goten gathered around the living room. Vegeta had layed Goku down on the biggest couch.
" Correct. It's like the brain's version of your body creating ki. " Vegeta explained.
" Toussan's so cool! " Goten chirped.
Chibi Trunks watched as a large trail of drool dripped out of the sleeping Goku's mouth and onto the couch, " Yah,
he's 'cool' alright. " he said sarcastically.
" Don't you mock Kakarrotto! " Vegeta growled at him, " He could turn us all into brain-dead idiots on command if he
figures out how to use this new technique properly! Do you want that!! To be walking around in YOUR OWN DROOL!! "
" No sir. " chibi Trunks shuddered at the thought of himself looking stupid.
" I don't think we have to worry too much, Toussan. " Mirai said, " I mean, if he's just starting to get this trick
to work now, he can't possibly be a threat until he's mastered it, obviously. And if you count in the years he's known about
how it works til the day he could actually START to have the technique work for him....it'll be DECADES before Goku
completely masters this. "
Vegeta looked uncertain, " Yes, but, this IS Kakarrotto we're talking about. "
" ... " everyone else paused.
" Oh yeah... " Chibi Trunks trailed off, " Mr. SSJ3. "
" Exactly! " Vegeta nodded, " And that is why I propose we all avoid asking Kakarrotto to demonstrate ANY of this
newfound ability. He'll eventually become rusty with it and further delay or even stop him from becoming a saiyajin version
of Shenlong. "
" You mean my dad's gonna grow antlers? " Goten blinked, confused.
" ... " Vegeta sweatdropped, " I'm not going to even satisfy that with a response. "
" *YAWWWWN* " Goku let out a huge yawn, then sat up, nearly choking on the boatloads of spit in his mouth, " GAH!! "
he coughed a bit, then looked over at the four pairs of eyes staring at him, " Oh, hi everybody! " he smiled sleepily,
" How'd I get here? "
" I brought you here so Onna wouldn't trick you into using your new powers against me. " Vegeta explained.
" Aw, that's nice of you Veggie. " Goku said, still tired, " But Chi-chan wouldn't try and make me use my powers for
evil. " he chuckled.
Vegeta opened his mouth to say something only to have a rather heavy plate plop onto his head. The ouji looked up
and took the plate off to see it had a large slice of chocolate cake on it.
" Wow! " Goten said in awe.
Vegeta looked over at Goku for an explaination.
" Veggie looked hungry. " Goku shrugged, smiling.
" Umm, my stomach's fine for the moment, Kakarrotto. I'm not really that hungry. " the ouji said with a weak smile,
then glanced over at chibi Trunks, " You want it? "
" No way! I don't know where he popped that out of. " Trunks exclaimed.
" I'LL TAKE IT! " Goten chirped, grabbing the plate of cake from Vegeta. He shoved the whole thing in his mouth at
once, " Mmm, cakey! "
Chibi Trunks watched him uneasily, " You sure you should be eating that? "
::Just remember the plan and everything should be fine:: Vegeta mentally informed the others. They nodded.
::What plan, Veggie?:: Goku's voice said in the ouji's head.
" Nothing. " the ouji said abuptly.
" MORE CAKE PLEASE! " Goten held out his plate.
" Baka Kaka-spawn! " Vegeta cursed, then blinked in surprise as a rather large chocolate cake appeared next to Goku.
The cake had a slice already cut out of it.
" Look Goten! It's the rest of the cake! " Goku said happily, picking it up.
" HOORAY!! " Goten cheered, then hopped up onto the couch, picked up the cake, and swallowed it all in one bite.
Chibi Trunks grinned, " Now THAT was cool! Do it again! "
" My tummy hurts.... " Goten groaned, holding his stomach with his hands.
" No kidding. " Mirai sweatdropped.
" Kakarrotto, we were all thinking maybe you should keep this whole 'manipulating matter' technique's use to a
minimum. After all it does tire you out a lot. " the ouji put on a fake smile, trying to shake away the thought of a
dummed-down version of himself thanks to Goku's new power.
" Well, maybe Veggie IS right... " Goku trailed off, " But it's so much FUN....but it's SO tiring... "
" Did I hear Mr. Goten's Daddy say something is fun? " another young voice said from behind the couch.
" Ohhh boy. " Trunks paled, " Come on Goten, let's go upstairs. It's that time again. "
" Time to throw up? " Goten offered, nauseated and turning light green as he hopped off the couch and followed Trunks
up the stairs.
" No, my sister's back there. " he replied, not turning his head around to see.
" Bura? " Goten blinked.
" No Goten, my invisible one. " Trunks remarked sarcastically, " Now come on! "
" ... " Goten stood there deep in thought for a moment, " You have an invisible sister? How come I've never seen her
before? "
Trunks sweatdropped, " Just stop talking and get up here. "
" K! " Goten smiled, then dashed up the stairs after him, but not without puking over the side of them before he
reached the top.
" Well, it could be worse. " Vegeta said to himself as he watched the boys run out of sight, " He COULD'VE gotten
ONNA'S personality genes. "
" 2 + 2 is 4, little Veggie! " Goku grinned.
" Good boy, Kakarrotto. You deserve a treat. " Vegeta rolled his eyes.
" What kind of treat little Veggie? " the larger saiyajin giggled impishly down at the smaller one.
" Umm...uhh....I'll, I'll bake you one...later.. " Vegeta stammered, his face bright red again.
" Kakarroujo! " Bura squealed, hopping over the top of the couch and onto the seat with him, " I am so happy to see
you again! You're our favorite guest here! " she smiled, " You're Toussan's favorite too, right Toussan? "
" ... " Vegeta turned his head away, avoiding eye-contact while he felt his face just heat up another 5 notches.
" Oh, Veggie brought me here cuz of my new trick! " Goku said, " Watch! " he focused on the table infront of him and
all of a sudden a bowl of m&m's candies appeared on the middle of it, " TA-DA!! "
Bura stared at the bowl with her jaw hanging open, " ...KAKARROUJO THAT IS SO AMAZING!! " she said excitedly, then
turned back from the candy to Goku, who was currently stuffing his face with the sweets, " Kakarroujo you never told me and
Toussan that you had ~*magical*powers*~!! "
" Oh brother! " Vegeta groaned, " Listen, Bura. Kakarrotto's new "magical powers" were just acquired earlier today
from a success in learning a technique that took him about a dozen years. When he uses it it causes him to get VERY TIRED,
VERY QUICKLY. And I'd rather not have Kakarrotto strain what little brain he has up in that kaka-skull of his. "
" Kakarroujo can you make a pretty oujo crown for yourself with your new powers? " she asked, grinning.
Goku nodded with a little smile on his face, then thought for a quick moment and an intricate-looking silver crown
appeared on his head, " Heeheehee, I am Veggie's oujo! "
" YOU ARE NOT! NOW GIVE ME THAT!! " Vegeta snapped, now back to normal but soon flushed in the cheeks as he grabbed
the crown from Goku, then did a double-take to see it had disappeared from his hands. The ouji looked down at the floor for
it, then back up at Goku and sweatdropped to see the crown right where it sat before Vegeta plucked it off Goku's head.
" Hahaha! " Bura clapped happily, " That's so cute! "
" Hee~~~ " Goku grinned.
" Ooh, Kakarrotto you take that off your head right now! You are NOT an oujo! " Vegeta snapped, walking towards him
only to suddenly yelp in surprise and something sprouted out of the floor and pushed him several feet into the air. The
ouji sat down and looked around, confused, " What the--? "
" It's a giant SUNFLOWER! " Bura gasped, all sparkily-eyed, " And right out of the floor! That's ADORABLE,
Kakarroujo! "
" HE'S NOT AN OUJO!!!! " Vegeta yelled from ontop of the sunflower, jumping off only to have an umbrella appear and
attach itself to the ouji's tank-top shirt's tag and gently float him confusedly down until Goku caught him and the umbrella
disappeared. The larger saiyajin hugged him tightly.
" Little Veggie's my FAVORITE ouji EVER! " Goku mused.
" I'm the only ouji you've ever MET, Kakarrotto. " Vegeta grumbled, still annoyed at what could have been a fierce
tackle attack cut down to a cutsey floating act, " ...and get that freakishly huge flower out of my living room--it's
blocking the tv. "
" Oh-kay Veggie! " Goku said happily as the flower promptly disappeared.
" Feelin tired yet? " the ouji asked curiously.
" Nope! Actually I'm feeling better than ever! " Goku shouted excitedly.
" Hooray for Kakarroujo! That means more candies and flowers and disappearing umbrellas! " Bura cheered.
" AND oujo crowns! " Goku pointed thoughtfully to the crown still on his head.
" You're NOT, the oujo, Kakarrotto. " Vegeta's face flushed lightly, " You're a PEASANT! "
" Am I ~*VEGGIE's*~ peasant? " Goku said w/big sparkily eyes.
" ...yes.... " the ouji squeaked out.
" AWWW!!! _THANK_ _YOU_ VEGGIE!!! " the larger saiyajin said, touched as he squeezed even tighter.
" *DING*DONG*DING*DONG!!! "
" Uhhhh...... " Vegeta felt his brain attempt to shake out of the numbed-up state it was currently in.
" I wonder who that could be visiting Veggie's house this time of day? " Goku thought outloud. Vegeta wiggled out of
the hug he was trapped in and quietly teleported closer to the door. He observed the peep-hole in the door, then grunted
as he stood on his toes to reach it only to have the peep-hole instantly disappear and re-appear at a lower section of the
door. The newer peep-hole location at a more comfortable level for the ouji. Vegeta glanced over his shoulder to see Goku
waving at him.
" Well, thank you Kakarrotto. " he smirked, " It's about time that kuso thing was at a reasonable height. " Vegeta
said while staring at the peep-hole. Goku beamed proudly. Vegeta squinted one eye shut and looked through the hole to see
an enraged, ravenous, psychotic, and murderous looking person glaring back at the door, " Ahh, it's Onna. " Vegeta
snickered. He teleported back to Goku and Bura, " Kakarrotto, we're going to be heading back to your house about now. We
can spar for a couple hours then head back here. ::Heh-heh, I'll have Onna driving back and forth between the two homes
while going crazy! I could keep this one up all day; or at least until Onna's car runs out of fuel:: " he thought to
himself, chuckling at the humorous mental images. He held out his arm, " Kakarrotto, teleport us home. That is, unless
you'd like me to-- "
" --no Veggie, lemmie do it! " the larger saiyajin said eagerly, grabbing Vegeta's arm and preparing to teleport.
" HEY! What about ME! " Bura pouted.
" Bura, if we were to bring you along you would do nothing but egg on Kakarrotto about the whole "oujo" thing.
The last thing I need right now is Kakarrotto getting all kinds of funky ideas and using his mental powers to make them
come to be! " Vegeta exclaimed.
" You mean--if I really wanted to, I could use my mind to make me Veggie's ~*oujo*~?? " Goku grinned widely.
" ...no. " Vegeta said bluntly after several nervous thoughts, " Besides you'll make a better servant-maid anyway.
Now let's go. "
" I would not! " Goku whined.
" Let's GO, Kakarrotto. "
" I bet I'd make a MUCH better oujo than a servant-maid anyday! " Goku exclaimed.
" You would not! You don't even meet one of the classifications anyhow so it wouldn't work no matter how hard you
tried! "
" Which qualification is THAT, Veggie? " Goku asked curiously, " I don't meet only one, huh? "
" AAAAAAARRRRRR!!!!! " a growl came from the front door. Goku froze.
" TELEPORT US KAKARROTTO!! " Vegeta snapped, " BURA HIDE UNDER THE COUCH TILL IT'S GONE! " he ordered, then
teleported along with Goku out of the house.
" OOOOOOOOOOOOUUUUUU-JIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!! " Chi-Chi roared, busting down the front door. Bura gulped from underneath
the couch.
" Uh-oh. "
/dl
" And here we are! " Goku said cheerfully as they appeared in his backyard.
" Good. " Vegeta said, then walked over to the door and opened it.
" Wait--where are you going? " the larger saiyajin asked, confused and saddened at the same time.
" I'm "going" to the bathroom. " Vegeta said, now inside the house and out of view.
" Aww....but what about sparring? " Goku pouted, cocking his head to peer inside.
" We'll spar after I'm done relieving my liquid waste, alright! " the ouji snapped, closing the bathroom door and
leaving Goku outside, " Baka, how does he expect me to fight him when my bladder's screaming to be emptied! " Vegeta
complained, " I can't wet my pants! ESPECIALLY not in battle and ESPECIALLY not infront of Kakarrotto! " he shuddered, " Ugh,
I can hear him now; "aww look out cute, little Veggie peed his pants' 'forget to wear your diapers today Veggie' insert
annoying kaka-giggle here. " Vegeta mocked while a loud tinkling sound could be heard in the toilet.
Several minutes passed.
Vegeta sighed in relief as he pulled his pants up over his briefs and contently exited the bathroom. He opened the
side-door leading into the Son home and nearly fell over at the sight infront of him. There was now a huge patch of the Sons
that used to be a grassy field now a miniture beach leading up to the river that ran down Mount Paozu. Vegeta blinked, his
mind drawing a blank, " Uhhhh.... " he looked over to his right, everything infront of the house was still covered in flowers
yet directly next to the beach, " Uhhhh.... "
" HI VEGGIE!! "
" AHH! " Vegeta jumped in surprise, then whipped around in a defensive position only to see Goku standing there in
swim-trunks and sunglasses.
" I got bored while you were gone so I decided to build a sandcastle. " Goku said happily, " But we don't have any
sand up here so instead I just turned part of my backyard into one with my special new powers! " he wiggled his fingers.
" ...that would explain it. " Vegeta said, momentarily gaining back his ability of speech.
Goku snapped his fingers, causing the trunks & sunglasses to disappear inplace of his regular orange and blue
fighting gi.
" Wow, you've been practicing while I was gone. " Vegeta looked impressed, " How long WAS I in there anyway? " he
cocked an eyebrow, turning his head back in the direction of the house.
" Oh, about 4 minutes. " Goku shrugged.
Vegeta's eyes bulged out of his head, " FOUR MINUTES?! _ONLY_ FOUR MINUTES?! " he gawked, " If that's what he can
learn in only four minutes just think what Kakarrotto will be able to do by the end of the WEEK! " Vegeta murmured quietly in
shock to himself, " I should get out of here. " he shivered to himself.
" Veggie gonna play or not? " Goku whined, bringing the ouji out of his deep thoughts.
" Haha, of course I'm going to play--I mean, spar! " Vegeta laughed nervously, then looked down at the sand, " Don't
you think you should turn this back into grass first, Kakarrotto? "
" But I've never sparred with Veggie at the beach before! " Goku grinned eagerly, " I'm not even sure I've taken
Veggie to the beach before? "
" No, you haven't. " Vegeta said, still uneasy with his peasant's newfound mental powers.
" Well I should take you this summer! We'll have SOOOO much fun! " the larger saiyajin clasped his hands together,
" I can even teach you how to make a sand castle! And how to surf! And how to do the hula!!! Oh BOY I bet Veggie'd have fun
doing the hula! "
" What's a hula? " Vegeta blinked, confused.
Goku bent down to his height, " I will tell little Veggie later. " he smiled, " Because now is for sparring! And what
good is sparring without somebody to spar WITH, right Veggie? " Goku said happily.
" Hmm, point taken. " Vegeta nodded, then yelped as a fist flew by his shoulder, the ouji cocking his head to the
right just in time, " I DIDN'T SAY START YET!! " he snapped, then blinked to see Goku was now gone.
" VEGGIE COME CATCH ME!! " Goku shouted, flying up into the air.
Vegeta snarled at not being the one to start. The ouji powered up and flew off after him, " ERRR, KAKARROTTO GET
BACK HERE!! "
/dl
" Evil little Ouji! WAIT'LL I GET MY HANDS ON YOU! I'LL RIP YOU LIMB FROM LIMB!!! " Chi-Chi roared as her car roared
down the road up, " That is, AFTER Goku's out of the basic viewing vicinity. " she thought outloud, then yelped as the car
suddenly slowed to a halt. Chi-Chi blinked, then opened the car door only to have mountains of sand flood the inside of the
vehicle. She yelped and quickly closed the door, a very confused look on her face, " Hmm... " she glanced upward at the small
glass window in the roof of the car, then opened it and squeezed out the top. Chi-Chi gawked at what looked like a semi-large
desert infront of her, " You've got to be kidding me. " she groaned, then jumped off the roof of her car and flew clumsily
in the direction of her house, " Goku's GOT to have done this, but WHY?! " Chi-Chi said outloud, then cried out as a small
figure suddenly slammed deep into the sand infront of her. She looked up to see Goku floating a dozen feet above her looking
as if he had just kicked something, " The Ouji! " Chi-Chi grinned.
" *GASP*! *HACK*! *HACK*! " Vegeta suddenly sat up out from under the sand, wheezing and coughing up sand. Chi-Chi
glared at the smaller saiyajin and slapped him across the face. Vegeta, still hacking, turned and snarled at her only to have
Chi-Chi dump an armsful of sand overtop of him, covering his head.
" Stupid Ouji! Stealing my Go-chan while he's sleeping and then making him turn my backyard into a sand pit! " she
growled, dumping more sand on the already covered ouji.
Meanwhile Goku was still floating way above the sand, " I wonder why Veggie hasn't come back up yet. " the large
saiyajin blinked, then teleported down below only to find Chi-Chi standing there instead of the ouji, " Oh, hi Chi-chan! " he
smiled.
Chi-Chi smiled back, " Hi sweetie, why don't we go inside and I'll fix you something to eat? " she said nicely.
" Have you seen Veggie? "
Chi-Chi instantly glowered, " Will you stop talking about him! Now come inside the house. " she tried to calm down.
Goku frowned in puzzlement, then let out a frightened squeal as a hand shot up from under the sand. A hand wearing a little
white glove.
" AHHH!!! " Goku cried out, " VEGGIE!! " he bent down on the sand and instantly began digging away towards where the
ouji was buried, " Don't worry Veggie! I'm coming! The important thing is not to panic. PLEASE DON'T PANIC!! " Goku said
while panicking himself, " It'll be alright Veggie just stay calm! I'll save you! I'll get you out of there I promise,
Veggie! " he reached both arms into the sand and pulled Vegeta out by the sides. The ouji threw up more sand, this time onto
Goku's gi. The larger saiyajin's eyes watered.
" *hack*! Kaka-- " Vegeta started to say only to be squeezed into a massive hug.
" WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH-HAAHHHH-HAAHHHH!!! I THOUGHT I'D NEVER SEE YOU AGAIN!!! " Goku sobbed, holding on
tightly, " MY LITTLE VEGGIE NEARLY BURIED ALIVE!!! " he cried.
" I WAS just "buried alive". " Vegeta sweatdropped, still covered in mass amounts of sand, " And it's all ONNA'S
fault for pushing me back down once I sat up and dumping more sand on my head! " he pointed at Chi-Chi.
Goku's eyes widened in terror as he once again tightened his death-grip on the smaller saiyajin while looking at
Chi-Chi in shock.
" Goku! He's LIEING! Oujis LIE. It's a known and given fact. " Chi-Chi explained, " Why, I didn't even know he was
under there either! "
" YOU SLAPPED ME ACROSS THE FACE FOR NO GOOD REASON!!! " Vegeta screamed angrily, only to have the larger saiyajin
start massaging the slapped part of the ouji's face; his cheek. Vegeta sweatdropped, " Kakarrotto how am I supposed to yell
at Onna while you're sitting her coddling me. " he asked flatly, his face turning a light red.
" Poor, poor little Veggie. " the larger saiyajin said comfortingly, now starting to pick the sand globs out of the
smaller one's hair, " Does it hurt? "
Vegeta groaned, a large sweatdrop on the side of his head, " I'm not a baby, Kakarrotto! "
" EXACTLY! And that's why you shouldn't be holding him like he's gonna DIE if you let go! " Chi-Chi added, annoyed.
" But--you tried to SUFFOCATE lil-lil Veggie! " Goku held the embarassed ouji protectively, " I could never just
stand by while Veggie chokes to DEATH! " he sniffled, tears forming in his eyes.
" Yeah Onna, you ATTEMPTED MURDERESS! Trying to ruin Kakay's only true source of happiness other than food. " Vegeta
smirked mockingly.
" YOU ARE _NOT_ HIS "ONLY TRUE SOURCE OF HAPPINESS" YOU SICK LITTLE OUJI!! " Chi-Chi yelled.
" AhhhHHHhhh...heh-heh-heh.. " the little ouji laughed dazed while he sat on Goku's lap with his head tilted back and
glowing bright red. Vegeta had a long trail of drool hanging out the side of his mouth while the larger saiyajin rubbed his
tummy, " Hahaha~~ "
Chi-Chi narrowed her eyes, " Goku STOP THAT! "
" But it's fun! " Goku chirped, smiling widely as he rubbed the ouji.
" Fine. Be that way. " she said, walking towards the house.
" Wh--where are you going, Chi-chan? " Goku asked, pausing from rubbing the ouji's stomach. Vegeta panted, trying to
catch his breath.
" I'm going to call Dende and ask if that wish we had revoked when the Ouji made you his servant-maid is still
available to wish for something else. " she said calmly, reaching for the doorknob.
" What wish are you going to make? " Goku blinked, curious.
" I'm going to wish you human, Goku. " Chi-Chi replied. The saiyajin's eyes bugged out of his head.
" CHI-CHAN NO!! "
" Listen Goku! If you become human then the Ouji won't have any claims to you! He can't force you to be his
servant-maid and you won't have to worry about that stupid tail of yours and we can go back to the way things were BEFORE
the Ouji! " Chi-Chi folded her arms stubbornly.
" I can't go back to before Veggie. I need my Veggie. Besides I don't wanna be human! I like bein a saiyajin. " Goku
pouted, " I like being Veggie's unoffical yet-to-be-named "oujo". "
" Wahh~~~ " Vegeta dribbled, his head still turned back and his face still glowing bright red.
" Well too bad! I've had enough of dealing with his existance! " Chi-Chi said, reaching for the doorknob.
" NO CHI-CHAAAN!! "
" I'm gonna do it! "
" NO! "
" Goku-- " she said, testy.
" CHI-CHAN GO AWAY FROM THE DOOR!!! " Goku cried.
" Then let go of the Ouji. "
" But he'll sink and drown in the sand! "
Chi-Chi reached for the doorknob.
" GO AWAY!!! "
" NO! YOU EITHER LET GO OF THAT OUJI AND MOVE HIM OFF OUR PROPERTY RIGHT NOW OR I CHECK UP SEEING HOW I CAN WISH YOU
HUMAN! " Chi-Chi warned.
" NO GO AWAY! I CAN'T LET GO OF VEGGIE! "
" Goku-- "
" GO AWAY!!! " Goku wailed as Chi-Chi grabbed the doorknob and turned it, " CHI-CHAN DON'T!!!!! NO NO NOOOO!!! "
" ..*poof*.. "
Goku and Vegeta stared at the door where Chi-Chi had just disappeared into thin air; their eyes bugged out of their
heads.
" Ch--Chi-chan? " Goku squeaked out, worried.
Vegeta quickly searched all nearby ki's for Chi-Chi's only to find it not on Earth or anywhere else for that matter,
::It's like she was just instantly wiped out of existance all because Kakarrotto kept saying 'go away'!:: he thought to
himself, then froze, ::Dear Kami, that IS what just happened! And, if Kakarrotto could make ONNA disappear, than he could
make--:: " AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! " Vegeta screamed in terror, pushing out of his hug with Goku and dashing off.
" VEGGIE! Come back! " Goku shouted. Vegeta froze, frightened of what might happen next, " Veggie help me find
Chi-chan! " he pleaded.
" THERE'S NO WHERE WE COULD FIND HER! You just zapped her out of existance with that power of yours! " Vegeta pointed
at him with a shakey hand, backing up.
" Veggie don't joke like that! " Goku gasped, " I would never do that to Chi-chan! "
" YES YOU DID! YOU JUST MADE HER COMPLETELY DISAPPEAR! CHECK FOR HER KI! IT NO LONGER EXISTS EVEN IN OTHERWORLD! "
Vegeta exclaimed.
Goku felt hard for Chi-Chi's ki, then gulped when he realized he really WAS unable to find it. He glanced over at
Vegeta with fright.
" Kaka-rrotto? " Vegeta said cautiously. The larger saiyajin opened his mouth.
" AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "

3:32 AM 3/1/2003
END OF PART 1
Chuquita: I bet you weren't expecting THAT to happen, were you? (grins)
Vegeta: (happy ouji) ONNA IS _GONE_!
Chuquita: Temporarily.
Vegeta: (flatly) What do you MEAN, temporarily.
Chuquita: That, and this is an alternate timeline so the Chi-Chi that just disappeared wasn't the one you deal with everday.
Goku: *Whew*! That is a relief.
Chuquita: One of the reviewers for my last fic, Afrodite, suggested I have King Bejito and Bardock guest star in a future
Corner if I hadn't done it already; which I haven't. So everyone expect them to be guests in either the next story's Corner
or the one after that (all depends on which story comes after this) As for what we're doing right now, we're going to present
lyrics of a different actual dbz song each Corner for this story. First off is the lyrics to the Veggie song I asked the
audiance's song-title translation for. First off I'd like to thank everyone who answered the question for me: Rissa of the
Saiyajin, Kyoko-chan, Ouji Chan, and Arriow all knew the translated title for "Vegeta-sama no oryouri Jigoku". Which
translates into "Lord Vegeta's Cooking Hel*". I followed the link Kyoko-chan put in the review and there was also a whole
bunch of other translated dbz songs; some of which I'm going to post the lyrics to in future chapters, such as one where
Gohan and Chi-Chi sing karaoke, and another where Piccolo complains to Gohan about his whistling and goes temporarily insane.
The complete title is called "Lord Vegeta's Cooking Hel*: Okonomiyaki Recipe".
Goku: It's Veggie singing while cooking a japanese pizza!
Chuquita: As bizarre as that sounds.
Vegeta: (slightly insulted) What's so "bizarre" about it?
Chuquita: Well, for one thing, I had no idea you could cook.
Vegeta: (cocks an eyebrow)
Chuquita: I mean, I had you being able to cook in "Eye Spy" but I never knew you had offical cooking-knowledge before.
Goku: (grins) Veggie can cook even better than Chi-chan!
Vegeta: (boastfully) Why YES, I CAN cook better than Onna...
Chuquita: (wryly) (to Son) That's all he needs, another ego boost.
Goku: Heeheehee, leg-o my eg-o. Haha, waffles.
Chuquita: I've been experimenting with the basic html fanfiction allows us to use (cuz they keep ripping up all my tabs and
just started getting rid of the paragraph double spaces) So I'd like to present the lyrics to Veggie's cooking song (slightly
censored cuz I wanna keep the PG rating) in BOLD.
bVeggie's Cooking Song
"Now, you better get good and ready
I, the Lord Vegeta,
Shall cook a-plenty!!"/b
bFirst of all, the cabbage, chop it finely
Smash it into atoms for me!!
(chop it up, chop it up, chop, chop it up)
You're next, you bas**** carrot!
That name of yours sounds like the word for "humans"
Small, completely spineless bas****
Your bitter taste makes one puke!
Huhahahahahahaha Huhahahahahahaha
But that tack won't work against me!
Now, slowly peel off all of the skin
Reveal, reveal, let's carve it up!!
(Reveal, reveal, reveal, reveal)bOoooh, next we have "pig meat"!
Ah, it is so well glazed
Now you watch the fresh bas****
Violently throbbing chest, great garnish!
Now, concentrate all your power
200g in one gulp is all there is to a coma!
(Ragged, Ragged, Ragged, Ragged-ged-ged-aaah)
Alright, the challenge is here with the yam!
Why you, putting on a rough exterior and all that
I'm going to strip that skin of yours!b(Slipp'ry, Slipp'ry, Slipp'ry, Slipp'ry, Sticky, Sticky, Sticky, Sticky)
You naughty bas****!
(Scrub it, Scrub it, Scrub it, Scrub it, Dirty, Dirty, Dirty, Dirty)
Twirl your hand to finish it right off!bYou're oh so slippery and make me itch
But you won't defeat me
Till the end I'll scrub you out I'd bet my honour on it!bHaahaahaahaa haahaahaahaa
Now, you blasted left-over scraps
I'll round each of you up to the last piece!!bMix the water in with the flour!
Stuff in some Tenkasu and egg yolks!
Drop in some shredded ginger
And mix--!!
(Mix mix mix)bAnd you bas***** a while ago... Oh so, so sloppy
Mix them all in one big mess
Then just cook them up on an iron plate slowly, carefully
(Sizzle, Sizzle, Sizzle)
And for the finishing touch, green seaweed and dried bonito in sauce!
How now, have you had enough already!!
Huhahahahahahaha Huhahahahahahahab"The Okonomiyaki Battle is over
Now, open your mouth wide
This is the peak of perfection!!!"bOh blast it,bI just completely forgot the mayonnaise/b
Goku: (sweatdrops) Sheesh little Veggie, you think you used the "ba" word enough times?
Vegeta: One must prepare lunch the same way one prepares for battle!
Goku: With mayonnaise?
Chuquita: Heh-heh. Veggie likes mayonnaise on his pizza.
Vegeta: (annoyed) And what's so wrong with mayonnaise?
Chuquita: (chuckling) Nothing, it's just that when I think of pizza toppings I normally don't think of MAYONNAISE.
Goku: Heeheehee.
Chuquita: I mean, I grant it is a japanese version OF the pizza, but doesn't warm mayonnaise SMELL? Is the dish even kept
warm?
Vegeta: (smirks) You see, this is why I'm a master chef and you're not.
Chuquita: Hey, I can make a pizza too.
Goku: (holds up Chu's cell phone) Yeah, she's got Domino's and Pizza Grill on her speed dial!
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) Give me THAT! (swipes her phone back)
Vegeta: Heh-heh-heh. (snickers)
Goku: MY favorite lines were "Ooooh, next we have "pig meat"!" and "Oh blast it, I just completely forgot the mayonnaise".
Vegeta: (dryly) You like the "ooooh's", don't you Kakarrotto.
Goku: (smiles) (nods) That part was VERY CUTE, little Veggie.
Vegeta: (embarassed) Uh-huh.
Chuquita: (to audiance) Hope you liked the song everybody! I think somebody gave me the link to that song, I'll see if I can
find it and post it so all can hear! (grins) There's a manga of this song here (copy up to "wings" in second link, then add
ueo and then . and html)
And there's a link to the song wild-swans.net/wings/VegetaSamaNoOryouriJigoku.mp3 (Arriow's link)
Goku: (excitedly) Sing for us, Veggie!
Vegeta: (sweatdrops) Uhh...maybe later.
Goku: Oh. (happily) (singing) On the 7th day of Christmas, my true love gave to me! Seven swans-a-swimming, Six Veggies
singing, FIVE GOLDEN RIII--ipe!! [Veggie shoves a glob of mayonnaise in his mouth]
Vegeta: (groans) Please Kakarrotto..don't sing.
Goku: (grins) But I have such a bee-uu-ti-ful singing voice little Veggie!
Vegeta: (sarcasm) I'm sure you do.
Goku: (w/big sparkily eyes) Reeeeallllly, Veggie?
Vegeta: (light red) Umm...uhhhh....(turns to audiance)...goodbye!
Goku: (pouts) Veggie that's cheating!
Vegeta: (smirks) I know.
