Quote of the Week: -from dbz Movie 3 "The Decisive Battle for Earth/The Tree of Might"
Taurus: It's not odd that Kakarotto and I look alike.
Taurus: Since we low-class Saiyajin are used and thrown away, there aren't many different types of us.
Chuey's Corner:
Chuquita: Hello and welcome to my newest story entitled "King Me!"
Vegeta: The "Me" being yours truely. (boastful smirk)
Goku: Well I think little Veggie will make a wonderful King.
Vegeta: (glows a light red) Aww, you think so Kakay-chan?
Goku: (nods) Mmm-hmm! Veggie is very smart and very perceptive!
Chuquita: And very short!
Vegeta: (offended) HEY!
Chuquita: Well you are; if you ever saw any of the flashbacks from Bejito-sei a LOT of the saiyajins are either Son-kun's
height or even TALLER.
Goku: (happily) Veggie's like a lil freak of saiyajin nature! (giggles)
Vegeta: (mockingly) "Veggie's like a lil freak of"---SHUDDUP! (snorts) What I lack in height I make up with in PURE MUSCULAR
POWER!!! [shakes his fist in the air]
[Chu & Goku snicker]
Goku: Aww, do not feel bad little buddy. I like you nice-n-little. (frowns) I don't think I could love you tall.
Vegeta: (sweatdrops) You like the feeling of towering over me, don't you Kakarrotto?
Goku: (grins) You bet little Veggie!
Vegeta: (looks up at the quote) Say Chu, didn't we use this one before?
Chuquita: Hmm? No, I talked about it IN one of the Corners but it wasn't the Quote of the Week. I just chose this one because
the whole "Kakarrotto-look-alikes" thing comes into play during this story. I figure there's many various-looking saiyajin
peasants but also several "brands" which look exactly alike that are spread thoughout the planet. There's a whole village of
"Kakarrottos" on the outskirts of Bejito-sei's capital. At least in my story anyway.
Vegeta: (flatly) That ought to be pleasant.
Goku: (giggles) That ought to be FUN! (to Chu) Do they all have cute lil squeally voices like me TOO, Chu-sama?
Chuquita: (shrugs) How should I know, we haven't started the story yet!
Goku: (enlightened) Oh yeah.
Chuquita: In this fic Veggie gets crowned King by Son-kun and in turn gains all these Royal Saiyajin Superpowers. While he
can't bring back the whole planet, he brings back all the Bejito-sei-jins along with all the buildings and his castle and
such onto Earth; along with the 10X normal gravity Bejito-sei's known for. That means the main cast I used for the "chibi
Veggie" fics are all back; King Bejito, Queen Ruby, Veggie's Aunt Cally, Raditzu, Nappa; and this time Son-san's parents as
well.
Goku: I GET TO SEE MY MOMMY AND DADDY!!
Chuquita: Everyone knows Bardock's Son-kun's dad, and I'm gonna assume his mom was the girl saiyajin on Bardock's team, Toma.
Goku: --to.
Vegeta: ...
Goku: (happily) Toma-to. Tomato!
Vegeta: (sweatdrops)
Chuquita: However, even though the little cast of Bejito-sei is in this story the main feature is still centered on our
two favorite full-blooded saiyajin duo.
Goku: (sing-song) That's me-n-Veh-GEE!
Vegeta: It STILL doesn't explain HOW Kakarrotto can crown me and have it work. ONLY another member of the royal house of
Bejito-sei OR someone who is the wife or the husband of a member of the house of Bejito-sei are able to crown me and initiate
my King powers. SO HOW CAN KAKARROTTO DO ALL THAT!!!
Chuquita: He still has some of your own dna left-over from the portara fusion.
Goku: [lifts up his bangs to expose his own mini-Veggie's peak] Heeheehee.
Vegeta: (sweatdrops) I guess that makes him a sort of royal-peasant hybrid.
Chuquita: Now there's an oxymoron.
Goku: Where?
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) Nevermind. OH! I just got the 10th dbz chunky book (or "graphic novel" whichever you prefer) and I
thought I'd like to share this volume's little Veggie-bio. [they have bios of all the characters featured in each novel along
with little pictures of them :) ]
Veggie-bio: The evil Prince of the Saiyans. While on Earth, he inadvertently caused Earth's Dragon Balls to be destroyed. Now
that Namek's Dragon Balls are gone as well, his last hope is to become a "Super Saiyan"--the legendary strongest fighter in
the universe.
Vegeta: DO I become the "legendary strongest fighter in the universe"?
Chuquita: (flipping through her chunky book) No, actually you die in this issue.
Vegeta: (several sweatdrops)
Chuquita: It's book 26 of 42. Actually I've got all the ones Viz's published of both db & dbz with the exception of db 9.
Goku: Why?
Chuquita: Let's just say I find some of the humor a little gross. (sweatdrops) I've stopped buying it several times with the
exception of the ones where you guys are at the tournements. (grins) Those are my favorites; can't wait till Piccolo &
Chi-Chi both show up again. (turns to Son) And that fact that chibi you has trouble telling the difference between genders is
just plain weird.
Vegeta: (cocks an eyebrow at Son) And Kakarrotto was HOW old at that time...
Chuquita: I'm not sure, 14 or 15. It's hard to tell since he was so...SHORT.
Goku: (grins) Lookout below! [towering over them both in height]
Chuquita: I wonder what it would've been like if Veggie had been in db as well?
Vegeta: Well Kakarrotto wouldn't be living with Onna right now that's for sure. (snickers) She'd never make it all the way to
even the tournement grounds--alive. (evil smirk)
Goku: Veggie don't be mean to Chi-chan; even if she's not here to hear you.
Vegeta: (looks upward) Did you know my book bio sounds like everything that happened in the storyline up to that point was
all my fault.
Goku: (innocently) Well, it kinda IS your fault up to here Veggie.
Vegeta: (thinks back) ...oh. STILL, they didn't have to use "EVIL" as the first word to describe me!
Goku: But you WERE evil, Veggie. (happily) But not anymore! Come 'ere little buddy! [reaches out to hug Veggie]
Vegeta: (gulps; slides his chair farther away from Son) (nervous laugh) Heh-heh-heh.
Chuquita: When they talked about Freezer they used "slightly less-evil" when you were mentioned in his bio.
Vegeta: Well I blame Kakarrotto for turning my mind into MUSH!
Goku: HEEEeeee, [still holding out his arms] Come 'ere, you can do it lil-lil Veggie-chan. Just one little hug.
Vegeta: (bright red) NO!!!
Goku: (pouts) Well if Veggie is going to be that way maybe I'll just pick a random person in the audiance to be my little
buddy instead of Veggie.
Vegeta: You WOULDN'T!?
Goku: Uh-huh. (looks out into the audiance) Now who should it be--hmm hmm hmm.
[loud cough is heard below him]
Goku: [looks down to see Veggie standing infront of him with his arms out] Aww, Veggie better now?
Vegeta: (grumbles something)
Goku: YAY! [hugs Veggie] I knew that'd get you back!
Vegeta: (eyes widen) That was a TRAP!?
Goku: YUP! Here's the story everybody!
Summary: Sick and tired of being only a prince, Veggie gets Goku to crown him king! With disastrous results!
Being crowned king gives the little ouji unbelieveable new powers, such as the ability to warp time and space! Now Veggie
has become bent on using his newfound powers to change Earth into a carbon copy of Bejito-sei! Will Goku and the others be
able to stop him before he completely goes off his rocker? Will they be able to un-crown him in time? CAN you un-crown
someone?
Chuquita: (grins) There's also an interesting argument in this story between King Bejito and Chi-Chi.
Vegeta: (snickers) My father will POUND Onna into dust! Or BLAST her--
Chuquita: Actually he sends her to the dungeon.
Vegeta: (perks up) Even BETTER!
Goku: (giggles) It could be a little embarassing for Veggie though. (narrows his eyes at Veggie) My little buddy didn't tell
anybody about me! (sniffles) And I thought Veggie CARED.
Vegeta: (sweatdrops) I do--it's just that, well, you're a little hard to explain...
Goku: (cocks his head) (big stupid smile) I am?
Vegeta: (flatly) Yes, you "am".
Chuquita: Here's Part 1!
*****************************************************************************************************************************
" RISE PEASANTS AND GREET THE GREAT AND POWERFUL _KING_ OF THE SAIYAJINS!! YOU'RE RULER--ME! " Vegeta said proudly as
he marched across the room, wearing a fuzzy white-collared red robe over his training uniform along with a gold crown on his
head and a makeshift scepter; one of his bedposts; in his hand. The ouji paused and looked down at his 'peasants' and sighed.
Before him sat Pookee, his small stuffed teddy bear, and Kaka-chan, his life-sized plushie of the other saiyajin.
Vegeta sighed at the small stuffed audiance, getting no applause or cheers, " Well? "
" *Plop*. " Kaka-chan fell backward onto the floor from where he sat. Vegeta sweatdropped, then pulled out a small
tape-player from his pocket and pressed the play button, causing the sound of many people cheering to fill the room. The
prince grinned happily only to have his smile droop into a frown a moment later.
" I'm pathetic. " Vegeta groaned, " WHAT'S THE USE OF BEING A OUJI WHEN I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO RULE OVER! I don't
even have a CASTLE or something like that. I SHOULD BE _KING_ by now! I'm WAY too old by saiyajin standards to even still BE
a prince! I should've inherited Bejito-sei DECADES ago! But no, I'm stuck here with nothing left to rule over but these two
stuffed toys and Kakarrotto!!! "
" --OH Tou-saaan! " Bura said in a sing-song voice from outside his door, " I have something to SHOOOOooooOOOOW you!
That I really think you'll liiiiiii-iiiike! " the 8 year old said.
Vegeta grimaced, feeling Goku's ki right outside the door next to Bura's, " Why do I have a bad feeling in the pit of
my stomach. " he groaned, then creeped over to the door and flung it open only to have his jaw drop to the floor.
" Isn't Kakay BEE-UU-TI-FUL, Toussan? " Bura said happily, pointing to Goku who was grinning happily and wearing a
bright pink princess costume and a fancy silver crown on his head.
" I'm preeeeeeeety! " Goku grinned.
" ... " Vegeta felt his bottom left eye-lid twitch. He backed up and slammed the door in their faces. Bura angrily
folded her arms.
Goku blinked, confused. He looked down at Bura, " Was it something I said? "
" TOUSSAN! TOUSSAN OPEN UP FOR YOUR PRINCESS RIGHT NOW!!! " Bura pounded on the door. Vegeta was busy trying to
regain his composure. He leaned against the door and covered his eyes with his hand, " Kakarrotto in a puffy pink princess
costume; THERE'S a rather disturbing mental image that'll take a couple weeks for me to get rid of. " he groaned, sickened,
" TOUSSAN, YOU'RE OUJO AWAITS!! " Bura shouted.
" Yeah yeah. " Vegeta re-opened the door and bent down to her height, " What do you want, "oujo". "
Bura smiled at him and giggled, " Not ME, Toussan. Your OTHER oujo! " she said happily, pointing up at Goku.
" Hi Veggie! " Goku waved down at him.
Vegeta turned back to Bura, " All I see is my sole peasant decked out in an earthling-fairytale-style princess
costume. " he said lamely.
" Nuh-uh! Kakarroujo's your princess too, Toussan. " Bura corrected him.
" "Kakarroujo"??? " Vegeta sweatdropped, " Whatever happened to "Mr. Goten's Daddy"? I thought THAT was what you
always call him. "
" Well, that was getting kind of indirect. Besides, the old name doesn't truely represent my character's motives! AND
Kakarroujo sounds so much CUTER! It's like some sweet little combination of Kakarrotto and oujo! You just switch the two t's
with the uj! And your lil peasant-princess thought it up all by himself! " Bura gave Goku a hug.
" Yes, I've heard that name a couple times from KakarrOTTO, but I didn't expect it to 'catch on' like this. " Vegeta
felt a vein bulging on his forehead.
" Little Veggie carry me! " Goku cheerfully held out his arms, waiting to be picked up.
Vegeta glanced up at him and cringed, " NO. "
" Aww... " Goku pouted.
" Toussan! " Bura exclaimed, " Don't you wanna carry your beautiful princess across the threshold! "
" KAKARROTTO'S _NOT_ MY "PRINCESS" BURA!!!! " Vegeta screamed up at the ceiling, " STOP PRETENDING SUCH THINGS!!! "
" Veh-GEE, " Goku said sadly, then whispered to him, " Little Veggie I was nice enough to let Bura pull me away from
the new episode of Hamtaro to let her play dress-up with me so the least you could do is give her a compliment. Or at least
tell her something nice. "
" Kakarrotto, they're both the same thing. " Vegeta whispered back, correcting him.
" What's both the same who? " Goku blinked.
" Ugh... " the ouji slapped his hand on his forehead in frustration, " Why do I even TRY! "
" Because you LOVE me! " Goku said happily.
" Oh I do not. " Vegeta turned his back to the larger saiyajin and folded his arms stubbornly.
" Oh I think Toussan loves his Kakarroujo VERY much. " Bura said slyly, " He just doesn't wanna let on while I'm
around. "
" The wading pool of Veggie's love is foggy yet deep enough to submerge several large cows. " Goku grinned.
" ... " Vegeta stared at him in complete bewilderment, " ...what? "
" HEEEEeee... " Goku trailed off.
" Hmm... " Bura cocked her eyebrows, " Here I see Toussan looking all sad so I decide to cheer him up by getting
Kakarroujo dressed all fancy like Toussan's princess and Toussan does not even flinch!! WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE!! "
" B-chan, merely dressing Kakarrotto in this gettup is not going to make me feel any less depressed about my blown-up
home planet and, if anything, realizes my reign in an even more pathetic light! " Vegeta explained.
Bura smirked, " I know what it is, Toussan isn't acting all sweet to his peasant cuz I'm still here right? It makes
Toussan a little tiffed? Well I'll just go sneak around the corner over there and leave my ouji and oujo alone instead, k? "
she gave them a thumb-up sign, then did so, " Remember! Sweet-talk! "
Vegeta sweatdropped with embarassment, " "Sweet-talk"??? "
" ... " Goku cocked his head at the now empty spot where Bura was, then smiled at Vegeta, " So? Veggie think I'm
pretty? " he clasped his hands together. Vegeta's face glowed lightly. He sighed in defeat.
" Yes Kakarrotto, you're "pretty". Now if you'll-- "
" --YAY! " Goku cheered, grabbing the little ouji and hugging him tightly, " Veggie think's I'm preeet-teee!! "
Vegeta tried to lower the now beaming bright red glow on his face to a dimmer tint and struggled out of Goku's near-
-death hug, " Now if you'll EXCUSE ME, I have subjects to get back too. " he snorted, walking back into his room. Goku peered
into Vegeta's room and frowned in a sad, sympathetic way, " Little Veggie those aren't subjects, they're your two stuffed
plushie-toys. I'M you're only peasant. "
The ouji froze, his shoulders slumped down and he plopped onto the floor, tush-first.
" Veggie! Veggie are you oh-kay?! " Goku gasped, running over to him and bending down beside him, " Little Veggie not
feeling so hot? "
" Kakarrotto, do you know what TODAY is? " Vegeta said in a dulled voice.
" Wednesday? " Goku blinked.
The ouji sweatdropped, " Yes Kakarrot, "Wednesday". " he said in a sarcastic tone, " I MEAN THE DATE!! TODAY is the
30th anniversary of my "would-have-been" coronation as KING OF THE PLANET BEJITO-SEI!! "
" And mine as Queen! " Goku added with a big cheesy grin.
" You're not my princess, Kakarrotto. SO CUT IT OUT!! " Vegeta snapped at him.
" "Veggie's-Princess" is just a state of mind, little buddy. " Goku replied.
" ...right. " Vegeta shifted uneasily, " Anyway, 30 years ago had Bejito-sei NOT been blown up by Freeza and my
father's plan to save me and kill Freeza had WORKED, within so many years after that seeing as I had already surpassed him
in strength my father and mother would have crowned me King when they saw me physically and mentally mature enough to take
over the throne. They would then both retire and help advice me in the backround. " he explained.
" What about ME, little Veggie 'o mine? " the larger saiyajin asked curiously w/big sparkily eyes, " Do I get a
pretty crown tooooo? "
" NO you don't get "a pretty crown tooooo". " Vegeta grunted, then thought outloud, " You probably would've ended up
as one of the royal guards or something. You see your Toussan was a friend of my Kaasan and when she and my father inherited
the Kingdom from my grandparents your parents moved into the castle as well which is partly how Raditsu got HIS guard job and
ended up surviving the planet's destruction along with myself and Nappa who had been a guard as long as I can remember. " the
ouji rambled off.
" I'd still get to wear pants though, right? " Goku raised an arm.
" ...what? "
" If I remember right neither of 'um had any pants over their underwear when they came to Earth. " Goku pointed out.
Vegeta sighed, " There weren't any uniforms at Freeza's compound that fit Raditsu that day and Nappa was just too
freakishly large to fit into his pants without snapping them in two! "
Goku snickered, " Has Veggie ever had to wear the pants-less uniforms? "
The ouji's face flushed, " There was one incident and I don't like to talk about it. "
" OOH! OOH OOH TELL ME!!! " the larger saiyajin grinned excitedly.
" No. " Vegeta replied bluntly.
" Awww... " Goku pouted, then watched as the little ouji walked over to a nearby buerau and opened one of the drawers
, he grinned and pulled out an astonishingly fantastic golden crown that put the one he was wearing on his head to shame,
" OOOOOOOOooh, is that one MINE? "
" WAH! " Vegeta fell over, " BAKAYARO!! OF COURSE IT'S NOT!!! " he got up, " Stupid Kakarrot, ruining the moment on
me, NEH! " he stuck his tongue out at Goku, then dusted himself off and held up the crown, " I had Shenlong wish this baby
back for me several years ago. " he said proudly, then smiled impishly, " It's my Ou crown. "
" Ooo? " Goku blinked.
" Or if you prefer to pronounce it the other way, "wee". You know, like wee-jee? Oo-jee? Oh there's two
pronunciations you get the idea! " he snapped.
" Oo-jee? I've never heard it said THAT way before. " Goku said, then grinned, " I like saying WEE-JEE better! Veggie
is wee and his name has a g! "
Vegeta sweatdropped, " No wonder everyone else has been saying my title wrong all this time; they learned it from
YOU. " he groaned, then shook his head, " A Ou is a term for a KING. This crown here is the one I will wear once I become
King. The one I have on now is my Ouji crown. I'm wearing IT because I'm still a Ouji. Get it? "
" Well if Veggie is pretending to be King with his little stuffed toys why doesn't he wear his King crown? " Goku
asked, taking the crown away from Vegeta and looking it over.
" AHH! HEY PUT THAT DOWN! PEASANTS CAN'T TOUCH THE ROYAL CROWN IT'S ILLEGAL!! " Vegeta shrieked, grabbing the crown
back from Goku and rubbing it with his cape, " Only saiyajin ROYALTY are allowed to hold it. "
" I AM saiyajin royalty. " Goku said as a matter-of-factly, then grinned cheesily, " I'm the PRINCESS! "
Vegeta smacked Goku over the head with his crown, " BAK-AAA!! I COULD HAVE YOU THROWN IN THE ROYAL DUNGEON FOR THAT!"
" But you HAVE no royal dungeon Veggie. There's just two of us so it doesn't really matter. " Goku smiled, " We can
be ANYTHING we want to be! I can be Veggie's Oujo and Veggie can be King! Or I could be guard! Or the royal chef! Maybe I'm
the grand poobah of a small town on Bejito-sei! Or maybe even the court jester! " he grinned as he happily bounced around the
room, " I could even be the ferocious ATTACK MONSTER that lives in the moat around the castle and eats trespassers for
BREAKFAST, RRAA! "
" ... " Vegeta just glared at him; Goku still frozen in his "attack monster" position, looming over the little ouji.
" ...heh-heh, right. " Goku backed down, " Say Veggie if you wanna be King so much why didn't you just wish for it
from Shenlong? "
" You have to be crowned by a ROYAL MEMBER of Bejito-sei, Kakarrotto. " Vegeta grumbled.
" Well why not crown yourself then. You're already royalty. " Goku pointed out.
" It doesn't work that way. I need a member of my family who is either my royal equal or a higher up. I have no
siblings and all my "higher ups" are dead. " he said flatly.
" Poor little Veggie. That must be awful, having to stay a Ouji forever without having to know the true happiness of
being the King and having a nice big plush castle with lots of jewels and cooks and-- "
" --servant-maids... " Vegeta grinned evilly at him. Goku froze and laughed nervously.
" "servant-maids", heh-heh, yeah, that too. And--and Oujos and peasants and workers and people who really don't wanna
be Veggie's servant-maid and, well, you know. " the larger saiyajin fumbled along.
" Yes, I do. " the smaller one nodded thoughtfully.
" So-can-I-crown-Veggie-with-his-pretty-King-crown? " Goku asked eagerly.
Vegeta sighed, " If it'll get you to leave me alone; gladly. " he took off the crown he was wearing and set it on his
bed, then handed the other crown to Goku, " Here. "
" YAY! VEGGIE CROWNIN TIME! " Goku hooted, holding the crown in the air.
" Be CAREFUL with that! " the ouji snapped, " And get rid of that ridiculous DRESS first. I'm not having you set
anything on my head while looking like THAT. " he pointed to Goku, disgusted.
The larger saiyajin handed the crown back over to Vegeta and shrugged, then ripped off the costume to expose he was
still wearing his orange gi underneath. A short, happy little victory trumpet suddenly played somewhere in the backround.
" *DOO-DEEDOO-DOODOODOO-DOOO!* "
" HEEEE.. " Goku grinned.
Vegeta looked around the room in a confused manner, searching for the source of the music, " How did you--where did
that MUSIC come fro-- " he suddenly paused and narrowed his eyes at Goku, " You WORRY me somethings, Kakarrot. "
" Veggie WORRIES about me? " the larger saiyajin grinned impishly at him. Vegeta's face turned bright red.
" Uhh--yeah, I, umm, I worry. " he tried to avoid eye-contact with the larger saiyajin, " Now just get this over with
oh-kay? "
" OH-KAY! " Goku chirped and plunked the crown on Vegeta's head, then waited.
And waited.
" WELL? "
" Well what? " Vegeta replied.
" Where's the MAGIC! Isn't something MAGICAL supposed to happen now that I put the crown on your head? " Goku
exclaimed, surprised and disappointed.
" You have to say "I hereby dub you (insert name here) King of Bejito-sei. " Vegeta added.
" OH! That's easy! " Goku smiled, taking the crown back off the ouji's head.
" --in saiyago. "
Goku sweatdropped, " ..oh, I, don't think I know how to say that in Veggie-ese. " he bit his lip.
" No point in doing it anyway. You're a peasant, it wouldn't work and-- "
" --WILL YOU STOP BEING SO NEGATIVE AND JUST TELL ME WHAT TO SAY!! " Goku snapped at him. Vegeta's eyes widened in
shock.
" Uhh...sure. " he cocked an eyebrow, " Papuimos ya ta loochi hai na Vegeta-sama kno que-ves. " the ouji said
intelligently.
" You're sure. "
" I'm sure. "
" And Veggie didn't just add in the "sama" at the end of his name just to hear me say it did he? " Goku asked
suspiciously.
" NO! That's really part of the sentence. " Vegeta gasped in fake-shock, then smirked, " ....it SHOULD be, anyway. "
" Oh-kay! I trust you Veggie! " Goku grinned and nodded, then cleared his throat and prepared to put the crown on
the ouji's head, " Papuimos ya ta loochi hai na Vegeta-sama kno que-ves!! " he shouted, then backed up in shock as he felt
the ouji's ki suddenly burst through the roof, " Whoa...Veggie... " Goku stared at him. Vegeta now had a bright white aura
around him similar to the blue one that appeared when the prince powered up. Other than that he still looked the same, " Does
little Veggie feel any different? " Goku asked cautiously.
" A bit. " Vegeta looked down at his hands, confused.
" OH BOY I DID IT!! " Goku cheered extaticly, " I DID IT I DID IT I DID IT I DID IT!!! I CROWNED MY LITTLE BUDDY AND
MADE THE MAGIC WORK!!! VEGGIE'S ALL MAGICAL AND KINGLY NOW! " a little light bulb turned on inside Goku's head and a huge
almost-maniac grin covered his face, " And if _I_ was able to make Veggie's King magic work--THAT MEANS I REALLY _AM_ MY
LITTLE VEGGIE'S PRINCESS!! "
" WHAT?! " Vegeta shrieked, the rush of bright red returning to his face so fast it made him a little dizzy.
" Ohhh!!! Little Veggie 'o mine don't you SEE! If _I_ was able to crown you, but you have to be royalty to crown
little Veggie, that means I'M royalty! " he jumped up and down happily.
" Don't be STUPID, it's, it's obviously due to, to uh-- "
" --ME-N-VEGGIE'S PORTARA FUSION! " Goku finished off the sentence, " WE'RE _LINKED_!! "
" We're--we're not "linked" you just must've retained some of my dna or something! " Vegeta sputtered, " "Linked" he
says, egh! " he stuck his tongue out in disgust.
" Oh-boy-oh-boy-oh-boy! I can't wait to tell everybody I proved I'm Veggie's PRINCESS!! " he happily jogged in place,
then turned around and dashed towards the door to Vegeta's room.
" AHHH!! KAKARROTTO STOP!!! " Vegeta shouted, only to have his eyes widen in surprise when Goku had done so. He
smirked with joy, " HA! Well that worked better than I thought it would. " Vegeta snickered, floating upward a couple inches
and hovering over to where Goku was, " Me being King's done wonders for your respect of me, huh Kah-keeee? " Vegeta grinned,
then cocked his head to see a distraught look on Goku's face.
" Veh-GEE! I can't move! " Goku pouted.
" Well OF COURSE you can't move. I ORDERED you to stop. " Vegeta folded his arms.
" NO! Veggie REALLY! I _CAN'T_ _MOVE_! My body's stuck! " Goku cried.
" Huh.. " Vegeta grabbed the larger saiyajin's wrist and tried to move his arm, only to find it frozen. He narrowed
his eyes in deep thought, " Go. "
Goku's body instantly relaxed back to normal, causing him to nearly fall to the floor from the temporary loss of
balance, " *whew*. That was weird. " he stood up, looking himself over.
" Hmm. " Vegeta smirked, " Kakarrotto! Turn around to face your King, will you? " the ouji asked sweetly.
" Whoa! " Goku yelped as he did so, " Hey Veggie what'd you do to me!! " he shouted, freaked out to say the least.
" I can control peasants' movements. " Vegeta blinked in shock and surprise, " I CAN CONTROL MY PEASANTS WITH SIMPLE
ORDERS!! " he hooted enjoyably, " Oooh, this is GOOD. " Vegeta rubbed his hands together, " I wonder if I can enforce
THOUGHTS into their minds as well....heh-heh, OH the possibilites! " the ouji nearly squealed. Goku was looking terrified and
quickly turned around, then sped out the door and down the stairs in a panic. Vegeta grinned evilly and cheerfully skipped
out of his room, " Oh my beautiful Kaka-SERVANT-MAID?? Where are you? Your KING and RULER has a few orders to order of you. "
he reached the bottom of the stairs, only to find the front door to Capsule Corp swinging back and forth by it's hinges which
had nearly been torn off by the frantic peasant who had just used to to escape certain servant-maid-hood, " Dang. " Vegeta
spat, " KAKARROTTO YOU COME BACK HERE!! I NEED A PEASANT TO TRY OUT MY NEW POWERS ON AND GUESS WHO'S THE ONLY ONE LEFT!!! "
he yelled out, then groaned, " Ohhhh, NOW what am I going to do! "
" Hey Toussan, nice cape! "
" Yeah Uncle Veggie! Lookin snazzy! " two young voices said from behind him. Vegeta looked over his shoulder to see
8 year old Trunks & 7 year old Goten watching TV. Vegeta walked over to them.
" Trunks, hop on one foot. " Vegeta said bluntly.
" What? Why? " Trunks cocked an eyebrow at him.
Vegeta didn't respond, then turned to Goten, " Goten, hop on one foot. "
The boy lept to his feet and began to do so, " Hahaha! This is fun! " Goten grinned up at him, then paused nervously,
" Hey Uncle Veggie my foot won't stop. " he said, worried.
" Ahh, so it only works on actual peasants or those containing peasant blood such as Kaka-spawned creatures.
" Uncle Veggie my foot's getting tired! "
" Yes of course, that explains why Trunks didn't react. And if the extent of my ROYAL powers is in parallel to my ki
powers like it was with my father than that means I can do ALMOST ANYTHING! " he grinned, " THIS IS GREAT! " Vegeta thrust
both of his arms in the air, " Thank you Kakarrotto-chan! " Vegeta laughed, then flew out the door racing off in the
direction of Goku's ki signal, " Here I come Kakay-chan!! BWAHAHA! "
Trunks and Goten stared at the now-empty door for several seconds.
" He's not coming back, is he, Trunks? " Goten said sadly.
" Probably not till tommorow anyway. " Trunks added, sweatdropping.
" Help? " Goten looked down at him.
" Hmm? Oh. " Trunks kicked his own foot out and tripped Goten, causing him to fall on his back. Goten sat up.
" AHH MY FOOT'S STILL MOVING!!! MAKE IT STOP!!! "
" TOUSSAN!!! " Trunks called outside.
" Alright, alright, YOU CAN STOP HOPPING NOW KAKA-SPAWN!! " Vegeta shouted back; Goten's foot stopped moving and he
sighed with relief, then fell back again.
" Remind me next time I come over we watch TV in YOUR room, oh-kay Trunks? " Goten rubbed the side of his head in
pain from falling down the second time.
" Yeah sure. " Trunks said, his eyes glued to the TV again, " Whatever you say. "
" AHH!! "
" Kaasan? " Gohan poked his head in the kitchen. Chi-Chi was standing there in a mid-mix of whatever was in the bowl
she was blending; her face a stark white, " Oh, God! Kaasan are you alright! " he gasped, concerned.
" Did you just feel that? " she said in a weak voice.
" Feel what? "
She turned her head towards him, " An EVIL KI just spiked like a wild-fire out there! It's the Ouji! I just know it!
My Go-chan better not be over there with him, he told me he was going fishing. " Chi-Chi said.
" No he told me he was going over to watch something on TV. We don't have cable like Capsule Corp does. " Gohan
explained.
" YOU MEAN HE'S REALLY AT THAT OUJI'S STRONGHOLD RIGHT NOW!!! WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME!! " Chi-Chi shrieked.
" I thought you knew. " Gohan whinced.
" OHHHH! I TOLD GOKU HE'S NOT ALLOWED TO SEE THAT OUJI FOR A FULL 2 YEARS AFTER WHAT THAT OUJI DID TO HIM IN THE LAST
STORY!! IF HE WANTED TO SEE SOMETHING ON CABLE WHY DOESN'T HE JUST GO TO KURIRIN'S HOUSE!! _THEY_ HAVE CABLE! I _KNOW_ THEY
DO!! "
" Relax Kaasan. " Gohan said, trying to calm her down, he closed his eyes, " Hmm, heh. " he smiled, " No need to
worry Kaasan, Toussan's heading on his way here right now; pretty fast too. Vegeta's coming after him but he's about 2 miles
behind Toussan. It'll take him a while to catch up. "
" It BETTER take him a while to "catch up"! By the time that evil little Ouji gets here he can say goodbye to ugly
face of his! " Chi-Chi pulled out her bazooka and began loading it up.
" Ma, you're not SERIOUS, are you? " Gohan gawked at the weapon.
" *CLICK*CLICK* "
" You're serious. " he groaned, sweatdropping. Chi-Chi was trying out several firing angles specialized for a smaller
target, " You know, if Toussan's running AWAY from Vegeta there's no reason to attack since Toussan'd attack him first anyway
; that is, if this is anything serious. " Gohan explained.
" Shuddup Gohan-chan! Mommy's busy trying to protect you and your brain-dead father from the evil that is Ouji. "
" AHHHHH!! " a high-pitched voice squeaked, followed by the sound of a slamming door. Chi-Chi lept into the living
room, taking aim only to find a single saiyajin across the room from her; Goku.
" GO-CHAN! " Chi-Chi grinned, dropping the bazooka and running over to him, " Oh my baby I'm so GLAD you're oh-kay! I
thought that Ouji was going to do something TERRIBLE and DISGUSTING with you! "
" HE _WAS_! " Goku exclaimed. Chi-Chi pulled a double-take.
" Ha-whaaa did you say? " she blinked in shock.
" Veggie-was-sad-because-he-wasn't-King-so-I-crowned-him-King-and-made-him-a-very-happy-little-Veggie-chan-but-he-got
-all-these-new-scary-powers-and-used-them-to-freeze-my-body-and-make-me-turn-around-and-now-he-wants-to-use-them-to-get-me-to
-play-servant-maid-to-him-when-all-I'd-rather-be-is-Veggie's-oujo-instead-cuz-it-sounds-like-such-a-fun-job-doesn't-it
-though? " Goku rattled off quickly.
" ...uhh, sure. " Chi-Chi sweatdropped, patting him on the back, " Whatever you say honey. "
" KAKARROTTO! "
Goku's head bolted on the alert, " Lil-lil Veggie? " he gulped, then looked through the peep-hole in the front door
to see the small saiyajin standing on the welcome mat, " Awww, look how CUTE Veggie is in his lil cape on the mat! " the
larger saiyajin felt his heart melt, " I just wanna grab little Veggie, take him inside, and hug him for DAYS!!! " Goku
clasped his hands together, " So proud, and yet so little he could slip out of my arms and fall head-first onto the floor. "
" Yeah.... " Chi-Chi sweatdropped, " Goku how about you go wait in the hallway while Gohan and I deal with the EVIL
one!! "
" But Veggie isn't evil, he's just stubborn and persistant. " Goku said as Chi-Chi pushed him around the corner.
" Oh you're just saying that because you like that little monster. " she brushed it off.
" OF COURSE I DO HE'S MY LITTLE BUDDY!!! " Goku exclaimed, then froze in shock as the front door instantly melted to
reveal a grinning Vegeta.
" Heh-heh, laser vision. " Vegeta snickered, pointing to his eyes, " So, Kakay-chan, " he said warmly, then glared at
Chi-Chi, " Onna. "
" Ouji. " she glared back.
" We meet again. " Vegeta walked past her and up to Goku, " You know I've been fiddling with all my new powers, and
I've discovered the larger part of them I never knew I had before. This has givin me many new routes to take Kakay. "
" Routes for what little Veggie? " Goku smiled, amused at him.
" My kingdom, you see. " Vegeta cracked his knuckles.
" Veggie's "kingdom"? Little Veggie doesn't have his kingdom, it blew up. " Goku said, confused.
" Yes, but that doesn't mean I can't UNblow it up. Kakarrotto; my "princess"; within the next several hours I will
have my kingdom returned to me and be able to finally create the rule I was supposed to have over it the FIRST time around."
" Wait! " Goku held his hand out, then bent down to Vegeta's height and smiled with delight, " Did MY _LITTLE VEGGIE_
just call me his ~*PRINCESS*~??? " Goku's eyes widened to two big black sparkily blobs.
" ....uhhh, I, umm, yes? " Vegeta grinned cheesily.
" AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! " Goku squealed, grabbing the ouji and hugging him tightly, " OH LITTLE VEGGIE I LOVE YOU!!!"
" NO YOU DON'T! NO HE DOESN'T! GOKU LET GO OF HIM RIGHT NOW!! " Chi-Chi shrieked in terror.
" Yes...Kaka...rrotto....PLEASE let go...of me... " Vegeta squeaked out, trying to breathe through the tightness
around his ribcage at the moment due to Goku's hug.
" Aww, I'll NEVER let go Veggie! Never never never! " Goku swung the ouji back and forth while still hugging him.
Vegeta's face turned a blue tint from lack of oxygen.
Chi-Chi whacked Goku over the head with her bazooka. Goku instantly dropped Vegeta to the ground.
" I'll let go. " he said quickly.
" Good. " Chi-Chi smiled, " Now that's MY Go-chan. " she glared at Vegeta when she hit the emphesis on "my".
" Neh neh neh, "MY Go-chan". " Vegeta mocked her. Chi-Chi grabbed the bazooka and turned it on.
" Why you little-- "
" CHI-CHAN NO!! " Goku lept between the two of them, Vegeta grinned boastfully from behind Goku, " If you're gonna
try to shoot at little Veggie go outside! He can't dodge well in here and you'll end up destorying the bottom floor to the
house!! " the ouji sweatdropped at Goku's explaination.
::I knew it was too good to be true...:: Vegeta cussed in his head.
" Why Goku! That's very intellegent of you! Gohan's genius must be rubbing off on you! " Chi-Chi said happily, " I'm
so proud! "
Gohan sweatdropped in the corner, embarassed, " Doesn't genius sort of rub off in the other direction Kaasan? Father
to son, I mean. "
" Gohan you're so smart your genius must be just RADIATING through this household! " she chirped excitedly, then
turned back to Vegeta and Goku only to sweatdrop to see them both now wearing gas masks, " Ha ha, Ouji. It is too laugh. "
Chi-Chi remarked, then grabbed Goku's gas mask and yanked it off.
Goku instantly gasped for air and fell to the floor like a fish out of water, " AHH! CAN'T...BREATHE! I'm going going
going, going.....going... "
" Goku shuddup! " Chi-Chi felt a vein bulge on her forehead in frustration, " HONESTLY! "
Goku whimpered, sitting up.
" Kakarrotto, if you'll need me I'll be off rescuing and restoring my homeland...well, everything BUT the homeland
itself, I found I'm not able to revive destoryed planets, " he trailed off, then grinned, " BUT I'm going to save everything
else! You can meet me at the royal palace in about 2 hours. I'll have the guards let you in. Tell them your "little buddy"
sent you! " Vegeta nodded, then blasted off.
" BYE VEGGIE! HAVE FUN!! " Goku shouted off in Vegeta's direction, then turned to Chi-Chi, " Veggie has the sweetest
imagination I know! "
" I think he's delusional. " Chi-Chi muttered, " He can't "revive" his whole KINGDOM! It's impossible! You need the
dragonballs to do that and they're inactive! "
" Calm down Chi-chan, little Veggie's just playing pretend with us. " Goku smiled, " It's so cute. I bet the royal
palace is gonna be a cute little tent or cabin or something Veggie'll make during the next 2 hours. "
" Dad IS speaking more realistically, Mom. " Gohan joined the conversation, " Vegeta's gotten his "King" powers so
now he's going to pretend he has a kingDOM to go along with it. "
" Veggie's other subjects are his stuffed animals. " Goku said happily.
" Well, that's comforting. " Chi-Chi said, then frowned uneasily, " But for what it's worth Vegeta has a knack for
going "over-the-top" with his stupid little plans. " her eyes widened, " What if he DOES have the power to bring back all
the other saiyajins? "
" Well then I'd say you're in trouble. " Gohan replied, " I can see fighting with just him over Toussan, but an
entire ARMY of saiyajins? There's no way you could beat 'um all Kaasan. "
" OF COURSE I CAN! " Chi-Chi snapped, " Goku and I are married and we love each other and you just can't come over
and BREAK THE BONDS OF TRUE LOVE!!! "
" You can't break the bonds of a portara fusion either but me-n-Veggie managed to do that. " Goku added happily.
" ... " Chi-Chi sweatdropped, " Don't discourage me Goku; besides there was never a bond between you and the ouji due
to those silly earrings. "
" AND JUST _HOW_ DO YOU EXPLAIN JI-CHAN THEN!! " Goku exclaimed.
" There IS no "Ji-chan". Vejitto was merely a figment of your imagination. " she laughed it off.
" Oh-kay, Mom now I _KNOW_ you're denying the obvious. " Gohan said flatly.
Chi-Chi snorted, " Fine! I'll admit that that "fusion-baby" exists, BUT I'LL NEVER ADMIT TO THAT "BONDING" THOSE TWO
TOGETHER IN ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM!!! "
Goku smiled impishly and gave a hard tug on his left ear.
" YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWW!!!! " Vegeta screamed in pain several miles away, clutching his right ear in
agony.
" Heeheehee. " Goku giggled. Chi-Chi and Gohan sweatdropped.
" Tell me that wasn't what I just think it was? " a larger sweatdrop appeared on Gohan's head.
" COINCIDENCE! PURE COINCIDENCE and that's ALL it is. " Chi-Chi said firmly.
" You should see what happens when I tickle my left ear. " Goku grinned menacingly.
Chi-Chi grumbled, " I'd rather not.. " she glanced out the window to the front yard, " However, as long as we know
that Ouji's wreaking havoc outside for the next 2 hours I want YOU to stay INside. Think you could do that for me Go-chan;
seeing as how "smitten" you are for your "little buddy". " she mocked at the end of her sentence.
" Sure! " Goku gave her a thumbs-up, " Veggie'll probably be bored by then anyway and go home. " he hopped on the
couch and stretched, " Or MAYBE he'll show me his little pretend Veggie-castle. Heh-heh, I bet it'll be all cute-n-little
just like Veggie! Or maybe it'll be one of the caves up near the mountain and Veggie'll put a big sign on it that says
"King Veggie's Royal Castle" or something silly like that! "
" Only in your dreams, Goku. " Chi-Chi said sarcastically. He frowned, " Sheesh! The Ouji's not a simpleton who
waddles around acting all "cute-n-fuzzy" for your own amusement! He's an EVIL EVIL little creature bent on my destruction and
YOUR enslavement!!! "
" "servant-maid-hood". " Goku corrected her.
" ...ugh. " Chi-Chi groaned, " Go to sleep Goku, I'll wake you up in 2 hours and we can see what sort of damage that
Ouji's caused to the masses. "
" Alright Chi-chan! " he grinned at her, then leaned his head back and instantly fell into a deep sleep.
Chi-Chi sweatdropped at the speed he had slipped into dreamland, " I wish _I_ could get to bed that easy. "
2 Hours Pass...
" Hahaha! Boy I love this show. " Goku grinned as he sat indian-style on the couch, watching TV.
" What show? " Chi-Chi walked over to him while cleaning a dish, then gawked at the two characters on the screen
while the show was recapping the previous today's episode, " It's you and the Ouji!? "
" Yeah, I call it the "Me-n-Veggie" show! I wonder how they got a camera down inside Buu though. I don't remember
seeing a camera there OH LOOKIT Veggie's face when he's hiding behind me he looks all nerve-shot & huggable. And there are
the worms! " he turned to Chi-Chi, " The worms scared poor little Veggie cuz they were really big and Veggie's really little
and aww lookit Veggie's expression there he looks so silly covered in goo and-- "
" *click* " Chi-Chi turned the TV off.
" HEY! " Goku protested, " What was that for! "
" Don't we get enough of his ugly mug during the day! " Chi-Chi exclaimed, then looked at her watch, " Speaking of
the Ouji I think he must've given up on "re-creating" his kingdom by now. It's been more than 2 hours and we haven't heard a
peep out of him; where-ever he is. "
" Ohh. " Goku pouted at the TV, then gasped, " OH NO! If Veggie hasn't come back or contacted us that means he's in
TROUBLE! Maybe he's trapped somewhere and can't get out! Or unconsious! Or eaten by a BEAR! "
" Bears don't eat PEOPLE, Goku. " Chi-Chi sweatdropped.
" How would you know! Veggie unintentionally aggitates people and animals all the time! I HAVE TO SAVE HIM! " Goku
made a mad dash for the front door and flung it open.
" GO-CHAN NO!! " Chi-Chi raced past him to infront of the welcome mat only to fall to the floor in pain. Goku stared
down at her, confused.
" Chi-chan what happened? "
" I fell, what did you think just happened. " Chi-Chi grumbled, a little embarassed. She tried to get up, only
instantly finding it very difficult, " GAH!! WHAT DID THAT OUJI DO!! "
Goku stepped out and pulled her upright again, " There air seems kinda heavier. "
" KIND OF! IT'S INSANELY HEAVY!! LIKE THAT OUJI'S GRAVITY ROOM!! " Chi-Chi cried.
" No, well, sort of. But this only feels like the gravity's gotten about 10X heavier, this is nothing compaired to
the 500X & 600X Veggie trains at. " Goku explained.
" You mean, that Ouji can live at an additional 50 TIMES how heavy it is out here NOW?! " Chi-Chi's jaw hung open
slightly.
" Mmm-hmm! " Goku nodded happily, " It all really depends on how Veggie's feeling that day though. Sometimes he can
be SO unpredictable! " the larger saiyajin chirped.
" Yeah he's unpredictable alright... " Chi-Chi grumbled, " At least our house still feels the same inside. " she
turned to walk back into their house.
" Hey Chi-chan look! We've got neighbors! " Goku grinned, pointing off into the distance.
" Nonsense Goku, there isn't a single other house for about 100 miles! HOW could we have neighbors. " Chi-Chi brushed
it off.
" No! Chi-chan really! There's HUNDREDS of 'um. " Goku said in awe. His eyes widened into two big sparkily blobs,
" Oh my goodness! IT'S VEGGIE'S CASTLE!! " he squealed.
" WHAT?! " Chi-Chi bolted to attention, then rushed back out over to him, " WHERE?! THERE IS NO CASTLE! "
" It's THERE! " Goku said happily, pointing Chi-Chi in the direction of a huge hill were ontop of was positioned a
HUGE gorgeous foreign-looking castle, " That must be where my little Veggie is! "
Chi-Chi surveyed everything before them. Hundreds of houses and shops surrounded one side of the castle, as if all
looking up to it for advice. The castle itself stood beautifully tall. A large flag with the royal house of Bejito-sei's
family symbol waving in the breeze from the highest point on the castle.
" It's beautiful. " Goku mused.
Chi-Chi stared at the flag and sweatdropped, " It's...a castle, alright... "
" Veggie's castle is even more amazing than he told me and I ever imagined! " Goku said in awe.
" He TOLD you about his "castle"? " Chi-Chi cocked an eyebrow.
" Oh all the time! Veggie said when I was a baby my family lived there & Veggie used to play with me! " the larger
saiyajin said happily, " Of course I was just a chubby, unable-to-walk baby and Veggie had to carry me on his back in order
to drag me places, but we had FUN!....at least I think we probably would've, I don't remember anything about Bejito-sei but
I assume we had fun together. Veggie said I used to teethe on the walls a lot. I wonder what that means... " he trailed off.
" It means you were chewing on the walls, Toussan. " Gohan pointed out, walking outside towards them.
" Wait, if the Ouji knew you when you were a toddler, than THAT MEANS HE'S HAD YOU IN HIS CLUTCHES SINCE _BIRTH_!? "
Chi-Chi shrieked, then hugged Goku's arm, " Oh Go-chan that's TERRIBLE! " she gawked.
Goku's eyes widened, " What's terrible is I can't find little Veggie's KI!! " he gulped.
" You can't! " Chi-Chi grinned, " Maybe the peasants revolted and KILLED him or something WONDERFUL like that! "
Goku looked down at her in complete horror and disturbment, " ... "
" Actually I think that because of all the new and MANY other saiyajin ki's and the fact that Vegeta's probably kept
his own lowered for safety purposes is probably why he's now a lot harder to spot. " Gohan explained.
" Oh. Oh-kay then. " Goku nodded, " In that case I'll just fly over to the castle and see if Veggie's there. "
" GOKU DON'T! " Chi-Chi shouted.
Goku paused in mid-air, " Why not? "
" Goku, you don't see anyone ELSE flying around here, do you? Don't you think it'd be a little odd and you'd be
EASILY SPOTTED by the WRONG PERSON that way! We'll all WALK to the "castle". " she said stubbornly. Goku pouted and floated
down the ground.
" You were talking about my little Veggie when you said "the wrong person", weren't you, Chi-chan! " Goku said,
insulted, " Well let me tell you something about my little buddy! He's not a bad person in any respect he's just very very
confused...and little! " Goku shook his finger at her.
" Uh-huh. " Chi-Chi looked skeptical, then turned around, " Come on Gohan, we're going to find that stupid little
Ouji. " she walked off, leaving Goku and Gohan standing there. Chi-Chi yelped suddenly and tripped over a small rock, causing
her to swiftly fall on her face. The saiyajin and half-saiyajin cringed; due the to the 10X normal gravity Chi-Chi had not
only fell but also made a several-inch deep body-shaped hole in the ground.
" Oww. " Gohan frowned.
" Serves Chi-chan right for insulting little Veggie on his own kingdom grounds. " Goku snorted, then walked over to
Chi-Chi and helped her up, " Is Chi-chan oh-kay? " he asked, worried.
" I think so... " Chi-Chi's pupils were spinning around in her eyeballs and she was looking clearly dizzy.
" Lemmie help you out Chi-chan. " Goku held her up with one arm and the trio began to make their way to the outskirts
leading towards the very-far-away royal castle, they walked for about 5 minutes until they made it to the first set of houses
, or rather, huts. There standing infront of a fairly large hut stood a familiar figure gawking in shock to what was inside
the two wild-west-style doors.
" Bulma! " Goku chirped, running over to her, soon followed by Gohan and Chi-Chi, " Why are you standing there with
you're mouth hanging open Bulma? " he asked curiously.
Bulma answered but continued to stare straight ahead, " Goku, I was coming home from a meeting when I saw all these
buildings materialize out of nowhere...at, at first I thought I was seeing things, I still think I am, but, " she turned to
him in disbelief, " THEY'RE _EVERYWHERE_! " she looked shocked and confused.
" What's everywhere? " Gohan asked her, " I don't see any-- " he paused as he caught something out of the corner of
his eye poking its head out of a nearby hut window. He blinked.
Chi-Chi sniffed the air and cringed, " Oh EEW! " she pinched her nose, " It smells like Goku just had several feeding
frenzies out here and never threw anything away!! "
The larger saiyajin took a whiff himself and sighed happily, " I LIKE it! " he grinned, then spotted a nearby
trashcan and walked over to it only to find it filled to the brim with leftover fish parts, animal bones, and wrappers to
pastry goods. A larger grin appeared on his face, " These are my kinda people! "
" HA! No kidding. " Bulma mock-laughed, now staring back into the building from before.
" Maybe we should try communicating with them. I mean, their trash looks fresh, whatever kind of saiyajins they are
if they eat like Toussan they can't be that bad, right? " Gohan suggested.
Goku gave him an oh-kay signal with his thumb, then took a deep breath and shouted at the top of his lungs, " HIIIIII
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!! " Goku squealed.
Dozens of heads instantly poked their way out of the windows and doorways, all staring at the quartet. The gang's
eyes nearly popped out of their heads. They were all dressed in raggedy clothes, some were still chewing on their food. And
every single one of them looked exactly like Goku.
" It's a whole village of GOKUS!!! " Chi-Chi gawked.
" Heeheehee, " one of the saiyajins grinned and waddled over to her. He took the fish he was partly knawing on out of
his mouth and held it out in front of her, " Naka no popo de lo FIIIISH? "
Chi-Chi turned a pale green at the sight of the raw, dead, munched on fish, " Uhh, no thank you. " she sweatdropped.
" Neh! " the Goku-look-alike shrugged and shoved the entire fish into his mouth, then instantly swallowed it, " Ahh..
Waamee! "
" Well, at least we know they're friendly, I think. " Gohan sweatdropped.
" Of course the fact that we don't know what they're saying doesn't do a thing to help us. " Bulma sighed.
" That's because all these me's are speaking Veggie-ese! " Goku giggled.
" "Veggie-ese"??? " Bulma cocked an eyebrow.
" "Saiyago". " Chi-Chi corrected them both.
" Yeah, Saiyago. But I always called it Veggie-ese cuz Veggie's the only one who speaks it...or at least, he WAS the
only one who speaks it. " Goku scratched his head, " When I crowned Veggie earlier he made me repeat this Veggie-ese sentence
while doing so. And what they're saying sounds kinda like Veggie-ese. " he said.
" You--you don't think the Ouji knows they're all out here, do you? " Chi-Chi said, worried, " He could make an
entire "Go-chan HAREM" with all these poor little guys. " she then pinched her nose, " Poor, SMELLY, little guys. " Chi-Chi
looked them all over, then grabbed Gohan by the collar, " I'M NOT STRONG ENOUGH TO SAVE ALL THESE GOKUS, GOHAN-CHAN!!! THE
OUJI'LL TAKE THEM ALL BACK TO HIS CASTLE AND ENSLAVE THEM ALL!!!! I CAN'T LET THEM ALL END UP IN A GO-CHAN OUJI _HAREM_!!! "
" Chi-chan I think Veggie'd probably call it a Kaka-harem or something like that. He doesn't call me by my Earth
name. " Goku pointed out.
" WELL HE'S NOT GONNA _GET_ HIS "KAKA-HAREM" AS LONG AS _I'M_ AROUND!!! " Chi-Chi screamed.
" Heeee! Aww Chi-chan they're all so cute and look just like ME! " Goku grinned, not paying attention. Chi-Chi fell
over, her arm twitching.
" Kaasan I really don't think Vegeta'd be interested in a whole "harem" of "Kakarrottos". He's after a
"servant-maid"; not a princess or anything awkward like that. " Gohan tried to calm her down.
" But I _AM_ Veggie's princess. " Goku pouted.
" OH YOU ARE _NOT_!! " Chi-Chi snapped at him, sitting up and coincidentally mildly frightening the gokus from the
village, who all backed away from her slightly.
" I wonder if they know where Veggie is! " Goku grinned, turning to a small group of the saiyajins, " Hi! "
" HI!! " they all happily replied. Goku beamed.
" Wow, I think we're really connecting here. THIS IS SO COOL!! " he said to his friends excitedly.
" I guess they must be from Son-kun's "tribe" or something. " Bulma sweatdropped.
" What I wanna know is who mothered them all! There must be almost 100 of them here!! " Chi-Chi exclaimed.
" SO! " Goku clasped his hands together, " Have any of you seen my little Veggie? " he lowered his hand down to where
the top of Vegeta's head would be, " Veh-gee? "
They all cocked their heads in various angles. Goku sighed.
" Veggie! He's, he's my little buddy. You know, little, small " he held his pointer finger and thumb a couple
centimeters away from one another, " LITTLE. "
" Little! " a random Goku-look-alike grinned at him, making the same motion with his fingers.
" YEAH! That's it! Little! " Goku said happily.
" Heehee, little! " they all exchanged happy nods to each other.
" This is GREAT! Half the battle's over already! " Goku snapped his fingers, then got down on his knees and began to
draw something in the dirt. When he was done he revealed what looked like a cutsy, chibinized version of Vegeta doodled in
the ground, " VEGGIE! " he pointed to his drawing.
" That doodle's too innocent-looking to be the Ouji. They'll NEVER get it the way Goku drew him. " Chi-Chi grumbled.
" Shh! Kaasan! " Gohan sweatdropped, embarassed at her sudden outburst.
" Veggie? " they all blinked at the doodle, confused.
" Hai, Veggie! You know, Veggie. As in Veggie-ta. Vegeta! " Goku sighed, exasperated.
" OH! " a couple of the saiyajins looked over at him as if they had gotten it.
" Vegeta no Ou! " one of the two said, pointing at the picture, " Haha, kawapse zo dala Vegeta Ou. " he giggled at
the doodle.
" They know Veggie!! " Goku grinned, " I call him King Veggie! "
" Does he like being called that? " another Goku-ish saiyajin asked curiously.
" SURE! I've been calling Veggie Veggie for a long time now! It makes you feel all warm-n-fluffy inside. " Goku
replied, completely ignoring the fact that the other saiyajin had just spoken english.
" HEY! " Chi-Chi snapped at him, " I THOUGHT YOU GUYS DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO SPEAK ENGLISH, HUH!! "
" Course we do! " he happily replied.
" Silly lady, we're just playing! " another laughed at her.
" Nobody ever comes to play with us. " a third goku frowned.
" You are our first visitors in a long time! " a forth hopped infront of them.
" Aww, really? That's so sad. " Goku pouted, " You all seems so nice. "
" How long have you been alone? " Bulma asked, " I mean, how long has it been since someone came to visit you. "
The third looked at his watch, " Mmm, about 20 minutes. "
" WAHH! " everyone sans Goku and his look-alikes fell over.
" They're definitely related to Go-chan alright. " Chi-Chi groaned from the floor.
" King Veggie called everybody telepathically a little while ago to tell us he was the one who brought us back and
where he had brought us too and stuff! " the second goku grinned, instantly adopting the new nickname for their king.
" Well I'm the one who gave little Veggie his king powers in the first place. " Goku said proudly, then ripped off
the blue sash around his gi to expose his tail, which flung out and happily began to waft in the breeze along with the other
saiyajins.
" WOW!! YOU'RE JUST LIKE US!! " one of the gokus said excitedly, " Peasants can crown KINGS? "
" Mmm-hmm! That's because I'm a SPECIAL peasant! " Goku said, then broke into a huge Son grin, " I'm VEGGIE'S
PRINCESS!!! "
All the other saiyajins stared at him in an excited awe, " Realllly? "
" REALLY!! " Goku squealed.
" ALL HAIL KING VEGGIE!!! " all the look-a-likes cheered at once.
" Speaking of Veggie I gotta get going and find him. That's why me & Chi-chan and Gohan and Bulma are all here. We
need to find Veggie. "
" He's probably at the castle. " a random goku answered.
" GREAT! " Goku spun around, ready to take off.
" Wanna eat before you go? "
Goku spun around the other way, " Food for me? " he grinned at the other peasants.
" Mmm! Yeah we got a lot of food! " some of them rubbed their bellies.
" HEE! LUNCH TIME!! " Goku patted his own stomach, then followed several of the peasants back inside the larger
building, " AND I can tell you all about my little Veggie while I'm eating, and you can tell me other stuff! It'll be FUN! "
" FUN!! " another goku chirped from behind him, " FUN and learning about Veggie! "
" Not "learning about Veggie", " Goku corrected him, then grinned, " VEGGIE-TIME! "
" VEGGIE-TIME! " the others chanted repeatedly, all going inside, leaving Gohan, Chi-Chi, and Bulma alone and staring
off in their direction in complete bewilderment.
" Well, this is going to be a little tougher than imagined. " Gohan sweatdropped.
Chi-Chi gulped, her shoulders slumped, " We're doomed... "

END OF PART ONE!
Vegeta: (sweatdrops) Wow...this is certainly going to be a bizarre one.
Chuquita: (grinning) And we haven't even gotten to where YOU are yet.
Goku: (happily) I like all the other me's, they're silly!
Vegeta: (shivers) I seriously can't imagine having to deal with more than one Kakarrotto; not the dare think of what over
100 of them would do!
Goku: (giggles) Heehee, Veggie wouldn't melt with glowing-redness, he's go straight to a steamy red Veggie-gas form!
Vegeta: (grumbles) Yes Kakarrotto, thanks a lot.
Goku: You know you would. Veggie wouldn't even get to saying "Aww, Kakay" before he turned into gas.
Vegeta: Stupid Kaka-village.
Chuquita: HEY! I LIKE the "Kaka-village". And the Kaka-village-eers come into the plot later on so I need 'um. (shrugs)
Besides, a lot of the stories I've read that take place on Bejito-sei always seem so dark and angsty. This is brighter.
Goku: (grins) And nothing can brighten up a planet like a village fulla ME!
Vegeta: (sweatdrops) You can say that again-- (to Chu) (Mr. Correction) They're not even ON Bejito-sei. They're all on
Earth right now.
Chuquita: Oh well, you get the basic idea. Before I forget I'd like to ask the audiance a question and see if anyone can
answer it for me. It's actually about Veggie.
Vegeta: _I_ could answer THAT.
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) (to audiance) It's about the many many flashbacks Veggie has in episode 280 "Vegeta's Hat's Off to
Goku; You're #1" which I think the dub title to is "Vegeta's Respect", I'm not sure, (turns to Veggie) Is it?
Vegeta: (shrugs) How should I know.
Chuquita: (larger sweatdrop) Yah, you're name's ONLY the first word in the TITLE. (back to audiance) Anyway, I've only seen
the sub to this episode and in it Veggie has a number of flashbacks. (which are conviently re-drawn instead of the usual
recycled flashbacks dbz uses :D ) They all go in chronological order. Too make it simple, it's Veggie sees Goku for the
first time, some of that battle; it moves to Veggie's first thought that Son might be the legendary super saiyajin while
Son's facing off against Rukkuum (spelling error?; beats me) then some more shots of namek, then it zooms ahead to the when
Son returns for the tournement, then some headshots of Son and the bad guys he fought; Freeza, Cell, I think Gero's in
there or one of the androids; and then there's the last flashback which I cannot for the life of me place ANYWHERE within
the dbz timeline specturm. Veggie's in his current outfit and in ssj; so is Son, the moon's behind them, and Veggie's
floating up to Son while Son's floating down to him--due to their height difference,
Vegeta: (grumble) Had to throw in a "Veggie's short" hint in there, didn'tcha?
Chuquita: (ignores Veggie) Anyway, they float and float and just about to smash into each others noses when the image
cracks and Veggie gets sucked back out of his flashback to where Buu and Son-kun are fighting and finishes off his little
monologue with the whole "fight hard Kakarrotto, you're number 1" quote. Now since I KNOW every other scene was a
flashback due to the fact that all that stuff really happened to Veggie instead of it being his imagination, I don't think
the last scene was his imagination. So here's the question; is this last flashback from one of the movies that I haven't
seen? Or is this just some weird little bit of Veggie's imagination acting up on him. It's nightime in this scene; both
saiyajins are alive. There's no possible point in time this could have occured unless it was before Cell was beaten, and
I know Veggie didn't wear the tanktop until several YEARS after Cell was destoryed. Please if you recognize this scene
from one of the dbz movies, tell me in your review, or e-mail me, either one works.
Vegeta: (smirking) It's driving you nuts, isn't it?
Chuquita: It's been driving me nuts since I first saw the episode!!!! There's no LOGICAL point in time it could have
taken place in!!! There's GOT to be a logical explaination!!
Goku: (grinning) With Veggie you're lucky if you even GET an explaination for what he does!
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) Hmm, good point. But STILL, I'd like to know.
Vegeta: Chu, there's so many PLOTHOLES in our show that just one little scene like that is hardly worth worrying about.
Goku: Yeah, besides Piccolo had destoryed the moon so how could it be behind us like that!
Vegeta: (snickering) Yes, unless I was slipping from daydreaming into one of my exotic saiyajin fantasies, (turns to
Goku) right, SERVANT-MAID?
Goku: (freezes) (backs his chair up a couple feet)
Chuquita: (flatly) Thanks Vedge.
Vegeta: (smirks) Don't mention it.
Chuquita: Oh! The cheek-to-cheek ki blast episode is on today so don't miss it!
Vegeta: (sweatdrops) That was the most uncomfortable 45 seconds of my life.
Goku: (happily) Aww, I had fun being cheek-to-cheek with my little Veggie!
Vegeta: I DIDN'T!!! IT LOOKED LIKE WE WERE DOING THE TANGO OR SOMETHING!!!
Goku: (big cheesy grin) Heeheehee! Veggie wiping my "kaka-germs" off his face, and then me saying "hey Vegeta, how are
you doing over there" and then Veggie freaks out. Or, or in the dub when dub me says "Hey, we make a GREAT TEAM" and
then Veggie freaks out. Or-- (notices the deeply embarassed and threatening look on Veggie's face) --heeheehee.
Vegeta: (grimaces) Yes, that is the episode on this Monday.
Goku: (to audiance) And if you enjoyed watching Veggie freak out last Thursday and Friday, just WAIT till what you get
to see today!
Chuquita: (grins) Not to mention Son-kun's cute lil "heeheehee, heeheeheehee" song he performs for Veggie!
Goku: Yeah, I sounded really really CUTE in the sub. Dub me tried to heehee too, but his voice is too bold and manish
to giggle.
Chuquita: You mean "manly", don't you Son?
Goku: ... (blinks) What did I say?
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) Nevermind. Son's japanese voice was done by a girl, that's why his giggle sounded more natural.
Vegeta: (eyes bulging out of his head) Wait, Kakarrotto's voiced by a GIRL?!
Chuquita: (cocks an eyebrow) What? You didn't notice that before?
Vegeta: Uhh...I just...assumed, uhh... (looks up at Goku awkwardly) Voiced by a girl huh Kakay? (sweatdrop) That
explains a lot.
Goku: ... (confused) (perks up) SAY GOODBYE TIL PART 2, VEGGIE!
Vegeta: Goodbye till part 2.
Chuquita: We'll see you then.
Goku: How many cows does it take to get to the tootsie-roll center of a tootsie pop?
Vegeta: I don't know--5?
Goku: (grins) 8!!
Vegeta: ...sometimes I just don't get you, Kakarrotto.
Goku: (happily) Neither do I!!

By: Chuquita
Quote of the Week: -from dbz Movie 3 "The Decisive Battle for Earth/The Tree of Might"
Taurus: It's not odd that Kakarotto and I look alike.
Taurus: Since we low-class Saiyajin are used and thrown away, there aren't many different types of us.
Chuey's Corner:
Chuquita: Hello and welcome to my newest story entitled "King Me!"
Vegeta: The "Me" being yours truely. (boastful smirk)
Goku: Well I think little Veggie will make a wonderful King.
Vegeta: (glows a light red) Aww, you think so Kakay-chan?
Goku: (nods) Mmm-hmm! Veggie is very smart and very perceptive!
Chuquita: And very short!
Vegeta: (offended) HEY!
Chuquita: Well you are; if you ever saw any of the flashbacks from Bejito-sei a LOT of the saiyajins are either Son-kun's
height or even TALLER.
Goku: (happily) Veggie's like a lil freak of saiyajin nature! (giggles)
Vegeta: (mockingly) "Veggie's like a lil freak of"---SHUDDUP! (snorts) What I lack in height I make up with in PURE MUSCULAR
POWER!!! [shakes his fist in the air]
[Chu & Goku snicker]
Goku: Aww, do not feel bad little buddy. I like you nice-n-little. (frowns) I don't think I could love you tall.
Vegeta: (sweatdrops) You like the feeling of towering over me, don't you Kakarrotto?
Goku: (grins) You bet little Veggie!
Vegeta: (looks up at the quote) Say Chu, didn't we use this one before?
Chuquita: Hmm? No, I talked about it IN one of the Corners but it wasn't the Quote of the Week. I just chose this one because
the whole "Kakarrotto-look-alikes" thing comes into play during this story. I figure there's many various-looking saiyajin
peasants but also several "brands" which look exactly alike that are spread thoughout the planet. There's a whole village of
"Kakarrottos" on the outskirts of Bejito-sei's capital. At least in my story anyway.
Vegeta: (flatly) That ought to be pleasant.
Goku: (giggles) That ought to be FUN! (to Chu) Do they all have cute lil squeally voices like me TOO, Chu-sama?
Chuquita: (shrugs) How should I know, we haven't started the story yet!
Goku: (enlightened) Oh yeah.
Chuquita: In this fic Veggie gets crowned King by Son-kun and in turn gains all these Royal Saiyajin Superpowers. While he
can't bring back the whole planet, he brings back all the Bejito-sei-jins along with all the buildings and his castle and
such onto Earth; along with the 10X normal gravity Bejito-sei's known for. That means the main cast I used for the "chibi
Veggie" fics are all back; King Bejito, Queen Ruby, Veggie's Aunt Cally, Raditzu, Nappa; and this time Son-san's parents as
well.
Goku: I GET TO SEE MY MOMMY AND DADDY!!
Chuquita: Everyone knows Bardock's Son-kun's dad, and I'm gonna assume his mom was the girl saiyajin on Bardock's team, Toma.
Goku: --to.
Vegeta: ...
Goku: (happily) Toma-to. Tomato!
Vegeta: (sweatdrops)
Chuquita: However, even though the little cast of Bejito-sei is in this story the main feature is still centered on our
two favorite full-blooded saiyajin duo.
Goku: (sing-song) That's me-n-Veh-GEE!
Vegeta: It STILL doesn't explain HOW Kakarrotto can crown me and have it work. ONLY another member of the royal house of
Bejito-sei OR someone who is the wife or the husband of a member of the house of Bejito-sei are able to crown me and initiate
my King powers. SO HOW CAN KAKARROTTO DO ALL THAT!!!
Chuquita: He still has some of your own dna left-over from the portara fusion.
Goku: [lifts up his bangs to expose his own mini-Veggie's peak] Heeheehee.
Vegeta: (sweatdrops) I guess that makes him a sort of royal-peasant hybrid.
Chuquita: Now there's an oxymoron.
Goku: Where?
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) Nevermind. OH! I just got the 10th dbz chunky book (or "graphic novel" whichever you prefer) and I
thought I'd like to share this volume's little Veggie-bio. [they have bios of all the characters featured in each novel along
with little pictures of them :) ]
Veggie-bio: The evil Prince of the Saiyans. While on Earth, he inadvertently caused Earth's Dragon Balls to be destroyed. Now
that Namek's Dragon Balls are gone as well, his last hope is to become a "Super Saiyan"--the legendary strongest fighter in
the universe.
Vegeta: DO I become the "legendary strongest fighter in the universe"?
Chuquita: (flipping through her chunky book) No, actually you die in this issue.
Vegeta: (several sweatdrops)
Chuquita: It's book 26 of 42. Actually I've got all the ones Viz's published of both db & dbz with the exception of db 9.
Goku: Why?
Chuquita: Let's just say I find some of the humor a little gross. (sweatdrops) I've stopped buying it several times with the
exception of the ones where you guys are at the tournements. (grins) Those are my favorites; can't wait till Piccolo &
Chi-Chi both show up again. (turns to Son) And that fact that chibi you has trouble telling the difference between genders is
just plain weird.
Vegeta: (cocks an eyebrow at Son) And Kakarrotto was HOW old at that time...
Chuquita: I'm not sure, 14 or 15. It's hard to tell since he was so...SHORT.
Goku: (grins) Lookout below! [towering over them both in height]
Chuquita: I wonder what it would've been like if Veggie had been in db as well?
Vegeta: Well Kakarrotto wouldn't be living with Onna right now that's for sure. (snickers) She'd never make it all the way to
even the tournement grounds--alive. (evil smirk)
Goku: Veggie don't be mean to Chi-chan; even if she's not here to hear you.
Vegeta: (looks upward) Did you know my book bio sounds like everything that happened in the storyline up to that point was
all my fault.
Goku: (innocently) Well, it kinda IS your fault up to here Veggie.
Vegeta: (thinks back) ...oh. STILL, they didn't have to use "EVIL" as the first word to describe me!
Goku: But you WERE evil, Veggie. (happily) But not anymore! Come 'ere little buddy! [reaches out to hug Veggie]
Vegeta: (gulps; slides his chair farther away from Son) (nervous laugh) Heh-heh-heh.
Chuquita: When they talked about Freezer they used "slightly less-evil" when you were mentioned in his bio.
Vegeta: Well I blame Kakarrotto for turning my mind into MUSH!
Goku: HEEEeeee, [still holding out his arms] Come 'ere, you can do it lil-lil Veggie-chan. Just one little hug.
Vegeta: (bright red) NO!!!
Goku: (pouts) Well if Veggie is going to be that way maybe I'll just pick a random person in the audiance to be my little
buddy instead of Veggie.
Vegeta: You WOULDN'T!?
Goku: Uh-huh. (looks out into the audiance) Now who should it be--hmm hmm hmm.
[loud cough is heard below him]
Goku: [looks down to see Veggie standing infront of him with his arms out] Aww, Veggie better now?
Vegeta: (grumbles something)
Goku: YAY! [hugs Veggie] I knew that'd get you back!
Vegeta: (eyes widen) That was a TRAP!?
Goku: YUP! Here's the story everybody!
Summary: Sick and tired of being only a prince, Veggie gets Goku to crown him king! With disastrous results!
Being crowned king gives the little ouji unbelieveable new powers, such as the ability to warp time and space! Now Veggie
has become bent on using his newfound powers to change Earth into a carbon copy of Bejito-sei! Will Goku and the others be
able to stop him before he completely goes off his rocker? Will they be able to un-crown him in time? CAN you un-crown
someone?
Chuquita: (grins) There's also an interesting argument in this story between King Bejito and Chi-Chi.
Vegeta: (snickers) My father will POUND Onna into dust! Or BLAST her--
Chuquita: Actually he sends her to the dungeon.
Vegeta: (perks up) Even BETTER!
Goku: (giggles) It could be a little embarassing for Veggie though. (narrows his eyes at Veggie) My little buddy didn't tell
anybody about me! (sniffles) And I thought Veggie CARED.
Vegeta: (sweatdrops) I do--it's just that, well, you're a little hard to explain...
Goku: (cocks his head) (big stupid smile) I am?
Vegeta: (flatly) Yes, you "am".
Chuquita: Here's Part 1!
*****************************************************************************************************************************
" RISE PEASANTS AND GREET THE GREAT AND POWERFUL _KING_ OF THE SAIYAJINS!! YOU'RE RULER--ME! " Vegeta said proudly as
he marched across the room, wearing a fuzzy white-collared red robe over his training uniform along with a gold crown on his
head and a makeshift scepter; one of his bedposts; in his hand. The ouji paused and looked down at his 'peasants' and sighed.
Before him sat Pookee, his small stuffed teddy bear, and Kaka-chan, his life-sized plushie of the other saiyajin.
Vegeta sighed at the small stuffed audiance, getting no applause or cheers, " Well? "
" *Plop*. " Kaka-chan fell backward onto the floor from where he sat. Vegeta sweatdropped, then pulled out a small
tape-player from his pocket and pressed the play button, causing the sound of many people cheering to fill the room. The
prince grinned happily only to have his smile droop into a frown a moment later.
" I'm pathetic. " Vegeta groaned, " WHAT'S THE USE OF BEING A OUJI WHEN I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO RULE OVER! I don't
even have a CASTLE or something like that. I SHOULD BE _KING_ by now! I'm WAY too old by saiyajin standards to even still BE
a prince! I should've inherited Bejito-sei DECADES ago! But no, I'm stuck here with nothing left to rule over but these two
stuffed toys and Kakarrotto!!! "
" --OH Tou-saaan! " Bura said in a sing-song voice from outside his door, " I have something to SHOOOOooooOOOOW you!
That I really think you'll liiiiiii-iiiike! " the 8 year old said.
Vegeta grimaced, feeling Goku's ki right outside the door next to Bura's, " Why do I have a bad feeling in the pit of
my stomach. " he groaned, then creeped over to the door and flung it open only to have his jaw drop to the floor.
" Isn't Kakay BEE-UU-TI-FUL, Toussan? " Bura said happily, pointing to Goku who was grinning happily and wearing a
bright pink princess costume and a fancy silver crown on his head.
" I'm preeeeeeeety! " Goku grinned.
" ... " Vegeta felt his bottom left eye-lid twitch. He backed up and slammed the door in their faces. Bura angrily
folded her arms.
Goku blinked, confused. He looked down at Bura, " Was it something I said? "
" TOUSSAN! TOUSSAN OPEN UP FOR YOUR PRINCESS RIGHT NOW!!! " Bura pounded on the door. Vegeta was busy trying to
regain his composure. He leaned against the door and covered his eyes with his hand, " Kakarrotto in a puffy pink princess
costume; THERE'S a rather disturbing mental image that'll take a couple weeks for me to get rid of. " he groaned, sickened,
" TOUSSAN, YOU'RE OUJO AWAITS!! " Bura shouted.
" Yeah yeah. " Vegeta re-opened the door and bent down to her height, " What do you want, "oujo". "
Bura smiled at him and giggled, " Not ME, Toussan. Your OTHER oujo! " she said happily, pointing up at Goku.
" Hi Veggie! " Goku waved down at him.
Vegeta turned back to Bura, " All I see is my sole peasant decked out in an earthling-fairytale-style princess
costume. " he said lamely.
" Nuh-uh! Kakarroujo's your princess too, Toussan. " Bura corrected him.
" "Kakarroujo"??? " Vegeta sweatdropped, " Whatever happened to "Mr. Goten's Daddy"? I thought THAT was what you
always call him. "
" Well, that was getting kind of indirect. Besides, the old name doesn't truely represent my character's motives! AND
Kakarroujo sounds so much CUTER! It's like some sweet little combination of Kakarrotto and oujo! You just switch the two t's
with the uj! And your lil peasant-princess thought it up all by himself! " Bura gave Goku a hug.
" Yes, I've heard that name a couple times from KakarrOTTO, but I didn't expect it to 'catch on' like this. " Vegeta
felt a vein bulging on his forehead.
" Little Veggie carry me! " Goku cheerfully held out his arms, waiting to be picked up.
Vegeta glanced up at him and cringed, " NO. "
" Aww... " Goku pouted.
" Toussan! " Bura exclaimed, " Don't you wanna carry your beautiful princess across the threshold! "
" KAKARROTTO'S _NOT_ MY "PRINCESS" BURA!!!! " Vegeta screamed up at the ceiling, " STOP PRETENDING SUCH THINGS!!! "
" Veh-GEE, " Goku said sadly, then whispered to him, " Little Veggie I was nice enough to let Bura pull me away from
the new episode of Hamtaro to let her play dress-up with me so the least you could do is give her a compliment. Or at least
tell her something nice. "
" Kakarrotto, they're both the same thing. " Vegeta whispered back, correcting him.
" What's both the same who? " Goku blinked.
" Ugh... " the ouji slapped his hand on his forehead in frustration, " Why do I even TRY! "
" Because you LOVE me! " Goku said happily.
" Oh I do not. " Vegeta turned his back to the larger saiyajin and folded his arms stubbornly.
" Oh I think Toussan loves his Kakarroujo VERY much. " Bura said slyly, " He just doesn't wanna let on while I'm
around. "
" The wading pool of Veggie's love is foggy yet deep enough to submerge several large cows. " Goku grinned.
" ... " Vegeta stared at him in complete bewilderment, " ...what? "
" HEEEEeee... " Goku trailed off.
" Hmm... " Bura cocked her eyebrows, " Here I see Toussan looking all sad so I decide to cheer him up by getting
Kakarroujo dressed all fancy like Toussan's princess and Toussan does not even flinch!! WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE!! "
" B-chan, merely dressing Kakarrotto in this gettup is not going to make me feel any less depressed about my blown-up
home planet and, if anything, realizes my reign in an even more pathetic light! " Vegeta explained.
Bura smirked, " I know what it is, Toussan isn't acting all sweet to his peasant cuz I'm still here right? It makes
Toussan a little tiffed? Well I'll just go sneak around the corner over there and leave my ouji and oujo alone instead, k? "
she gave them a thumb-up sign, then did so, " Remember! Sweet-talk! "
Vegeta sweatdropped with embarassment, " "Sweet-talk"??? "
" ... " Goku cocked his head at the now empty spot where Bura was, then smiled at Vegeta, " So? Veggie think I'm
pretty? " he clasped his hands together. Vegeta's face glowed lightly. He sighed in defeat.
" Yes Kakarrotto, you're "pretty". Now if you'll-- "
" --YAY! " Goku cheered, grabbing the little ouji and hugging him tightly, " Veggie think's I'm preeet-teee!! "
Vegeta tried to lower the now beaming bright red glow on his face to a dimmer tint and struggled out of Goku's near-
-death hug, " Now if you'll EXCUSE ME, I have subjects to get back too. " he snorted, walking back into his room. Goku peered
into Vegeta's room and frowned in a sad, sympathetic way, " Little Veggie those aren't subjects, they're your two stuffed
plushie-toys. I'M you're only peasant. "
The ouji froze, his shoulders slumped down and he plopped onto the floor, tush-first.
" Veggie! Veggie are you oh-kay?! " Goku gasped, running over to him and bending down beside him, " Little Veggie not
feeling so hot? "
" Kakarrotto, do you know what TODAY is? " Vegeta said in a dulled voice.
" Wednesday? " Goku blinked.
The ouji sweatdropped, " Yes Kakarrot, "Wednesday". " he said in a sarcastic tone, " I MEAN THE DATE!! TODAY is the
30th anniversary of my "would-have-been" coronation as KING OF THE PLANET BEJITO-SEI!! "
" And mine as Queen! " Goku added with a big cheesy grin.
" You're not my princess, Kakarrotto. SO CUT IT OUT!! " Vegeta snapped at him.
" "Veggie's-Princess" is just a state of mind, little buddy. " Goku replied.
" ...right. " Vegeta shifted uneasily, " Anyway, 30 years ago had Bejito-sei NOT been blown up by Freeza and my
father's plan to save me and kill Freeza had WORKED, within so many years after that seeing as I had already surpassed him
in strength my father and mother would have crowned me King when they saw me physically and mentally mature enough to take
over the throne. They would then both retire and help advice me in the backround. " he explained.
" What about ME, little Veggie 'o mine? " the larger saiyajin asked curiously w/big sparkily eyes, " Do I get a
pretty crown tooooo? "
" NO you don't get "a pretty crown tooooo". " Vegeta grunted, then thought outloud, " You probably would've ended up
as one of the royal guards or something. You see your Toussan was a friend of my Kaasan and when she and my father inherited
the Kingdom from my grandparents your parents moved into the castle as well which is partly how Raditsu got HIS guard job and
ended up surviving the planet's destruction along with myself and Nappa who had been a guard as long as I can remember. " the
ouji rambled off.
" I'd still get to wear pants though, right? " Goku raised an arm.
" ...what? "
" If I remember right neither of 'um had any pants over their underwear when they came to Earth. " Goku pointed out.
Vegeta sighed, " There weren't any uniforms at Freeza's compound that fit Raditsu that day and Nappa was just too
freakishly large to fit into his pants without snapping them in two! "
Goku snickered, " Has Veggie ever had to wear the pants-less uniforms? "
The ouji's face flushed, " There was one incident and I don't like to talk about it. "
" OOH! OOH OOH TELL ME!!! " the larger saiyajin grinned excitedly.
" No. " Vegeta replied bluntly.
" Awww... " Goku pouted, then watched as the little ouji walked over to a nearby buerau and opened one of the drawers
, he grinned and pulled out an astonishingly fantastic golden crown that put the one he was wearing on his head to shame,
" OOOOOOOOooh, is that one MINE? "
" WAH! " Vegeta fell over, " BAKAYARO!! OF COURSE IT'S NOT!!! " he got up, " Stupid Kakarrot, ruining the moment on
me, NEH! " he stuck his tongue out at Goku, then dusted himself off and held up the crown, " I had Shenlong wish this baby
back for me several years ago. " he said proudly, then smiled impishly, " It's my Ou crown. "
" Ooo? " Goku blinked.
" Or if you prefer to pronounce it the other way, "wee". You know, like wee-jee? Oo-jee? Oh there's two
pronunciations you get the idea! " he snapped.
" Oo-jee? I've never heard it said THAT way before. " Goku said, then grinned, " I like saying WEE-JEE better! Veggie
is wee and his name has a g! "
Vegeta sweatdropped, " No wonder everyone else has been saying my title wrong all this time; they learned it from
YOU. " he groaned, then shook his head, " A Ou is a term for a KING. This crown here is the one I will wear once I become
King. The one I have on now is my Ouji crown. I'm wearing IT because I'm still a Ouji. Get it? "
" Well if Veggie is pretending to be King with his little stuffed toys why doesn't he wear his King crown? " Goku
asked, taking the crown away from Vegeta and looking it over.
" AHH! HEY PUT THAT DOWN! PEASANTS CAN'T TOUCH THE ROYAL CROWN IT'S ILLEGAL!! " Vegeta shrieked, grabbing the crown
back from Goku and rubbing it with his cape, " Only saiyajin ROYALTY are allowed to hold it. "
" I AM saiyajin royalty. " Goku said as a matter-of-factly, then grinned cheesily, " I'm the PRINCESS! "
Vegeta smacked Goku over the head with his crown, " BAK-AAA!! I COULD HAVE YOU THROWN IN THE ROYAL DUNGEON FOR THAT!"
" But you HAVE no royal dungeon Veggie. There's just two of us so it doesn't really matter. " Goku smiled, " We can
be ANYTHING we want to be! I can be Veggie's Oujo and Veggie can be King! Or I could be guard! Or the royal chef! Maybe I'm
the grand poobah of a small town on Bejito-sei! Or maybe even the court jester! " he grinned as he happily bounced around the
room, " I could even be the ferocious ATTACK MONSTER that lives in the moat around the castle and eats trespassers for
BREAKFAST, RRAA! "
" ... " Vegeta just glared at him; Goku still frozen in his "attack monster" position, looming over the little ouji.
" ...heh-heh, right. " Goku backed down, " Say Veggie if you wanna be King so much why didn't you just wish for it
from Shenlong? "
" You have to be crowned by a ROYAL MEMBER of Bejito-sei, Kakarrotto. " Vegeta grumbled.
" Well why not crown yourself then. You're already royalty. " Goku pointed out.
" It doesn't work that way. I need a member of my family who is either my royal equal or a higher up. I have no
siblings and all my "higher ups" are dead. " he said flatly.
" Poor little Veggie. That must be awful, having to stay a Ouji forever without having to know the true happiness of
being the King and having a nice big plush castle with lots of jewels and cooks and-- "
" --servant-maids... " Vegeta grinned evilly at him. Goku froze and laughed nervously.
" "servant-maids", heh-heh, yeah, that too. And--and Oujos and peasants and workers and people who really don't wanna
be Veggie's servant-maid and, well, you know. " the larger saiyajin fumbled along.
" Yes, I do. " the smaller one nodded thoughtfully.
" So-can-I-crown-Veggie-with-his-pretty-King-crown? " Goku asked eagerly.
Vegeta sighed, " If it'll get you to leave me alone; gladly. " he took off the crown he was wearing and set it on his
bed, then handed the other crown to Goku, " Here. "
" YAY! VEGGIE CROWNIN TIME! " Goku hooted, holding the crown in the air.
" Be CAREFUL with that! " the ouji snapped, " And get rid of that ridiculous DRESS first. I'm not having you set
anything on my head while looking like THAT. " he pointed to Goku, disgusted.
The larger saiyajin handed the crown back over to Vegeta and shrugged, then ripped off the costume to expose he was
still wearing his orange gi underneath. A short, happy little victory trumpet suddenly played somewhere in the backround.
" *DOO-DEEDOO-DOODOODOO-DOOO!* "
" HEEEE.. " Goku grinned.
Vegeta looked around the room in a confused manner, searching for the source of the music, " How did you--where did
that MUSIC come fro-- " he suddenly paused and narrowed his eyes at Goku, " You WORRY me somethings, Kakarrot. "
" Veggie WORRIES about me? " the larger saiyajin grinned impishly at him. Vegeta's face turned bright red.
" Uhh--yeah, I, umm, I worry. " he tried to avoid eye-contact with the larger saiyajin, " Now just get this over with
oh-kay? "
" OH-KAY! " Goku chirped and plunked the crown on Vegeta's head, then waited.
And waited.
" WELL? "
" Well what? " Vegeta replied.
" Where's the MAGIC! Isn't something MAGICAL supposed to happen now that I put the crown on your head? " Goku
exclaimed, surprised and disappointed.
" You have to say "I hereby dub you (insert name here) King of Bejito-sei. " Vegeta added.
" OH! That's easy! " Goku smiled, taking the crown back off the ouji's head.
" --in saiyago. "
Goku sweatdropped, " ..oh, I, don't think I know how to say that in Veggie-ese. " he bit his lip.
" No point in doing it anyway. You're a peasant, it wouldn't work and-- "
" --WILL YOU STOP BEING SO NEGATIVE AND JUST TELL ME WHAT TO SAY!! " Goku snapped at him. Vegeta's eyes widened in
shock.
" Uhh...sure. " he cocked an eyebrow, " Papuimos ya ta loochi hai na Vegeta-sama kno que-ves. " the ouji said
intelligently.
" You're sure. "
" I'm sure. "
" And Veggie didn't just add in the "sama" at the end of his name just to hear me say it did he? " Goku asked
suspiciously.
" NO! That's really part of the sentence. " Vegeta gasped in fake-shock, then smirked, " ....it SHOULD be, anyway. "
" Oh-kay! I trust you Veggie! " Goku grinned and nodded, then cleared his throat and prepared to put the crown on
the ouji's head, " Papuimos ya ta loochi hai na Vegeta-sama kno que-ves!! " he shouted, then backed up in shock as he felt
the ouji's ki suddenly burst through the roof, " Whoa...Veggie... " Goku stared at him. Vegeta now had a bright white aura
around him similar to the blue one that appeared when the prince powered up. Other than that he still looked the same, " Does
little Veggie feel any different? " Goku asked cautiously.
" A bit. " Vegeta looked down at his hands, confused.
" OH BOY I DID IT!! " Goku cheered extaticly, " I DID IT I DID IT I DID IT I DID IT!!! I CROWNED MY LITTLE BUDDY AND
MADE THE MAGIC WORK!!! VEGGIE'S ALL MAGICAL AND KINGLY NOW! " a little light bulb turned on inside Goku's head and a huge
almost-maniac grin covered his face, " And if _I_ was able to make Veggie's King magic work--THAT MEANS I REALLY _AM_ MY
LITTLE VEGGIE'S PRINCESS!! "
" WHAT?! " Vegeta shrieked, the rush of bright red returning to his face so fast it made him a little dizzy.
" Ohhh!!! Little Veggie 'o mine don't you SEE! If _I_ was able to crown you, but you have to be royalty to crown
little Veggie, that means I'M royalty! " he jumped up and down happily.
" Don't be STUPID, it's, it's obviously due to, to uh-- "
" --ME-N-VEGGIE'S PORTARA FUSION! " Goku finished off the sentence, " WE'RE _LINKED_!! "
" We're--we're not "linked" you just must've retained some of my dna or something! " Vegeta sputtered, " "Linked" he
says, egh! " he stuck his tongue out in disgust.
" Oh-boy-oh-boy-oh-boy! I can't wait to tell everybody I proved I'm Veggie's PRINCESS!! " he happily jogged in place,
then turned around and dashed towards the door to Vegeta's room.
" AHHH!! KAKARROTTO STOP!!! " Vegeta shouted, only to have his eyes widen in surprise when Goku had done so. He
smirked with joy, " HA! Well that worked better than I thought it would. " Vegeta snickered, floating upward a couple inches
and hovering over to where Goku was, " Me being King's done wonders for your respect of me, huh Kah-keeee? " Vegeta grinned,
then cocked his head to see a distraught look on Goku's face.
" Veh-GEE! I can't move! " Goku pouted.
" Well OF COURSE you can't move. I ORDERED you to stop. " Vegeta folded his arms.
" NO! Veggie REALLY! I _CAN'T_ _MOVE_! My body's stuck! " Goku cried.
" Huh.. " Vegeta grabbed the larger saiyajin's wrist and tried to move his arm, only to find it frozen. He narrowed
his eyes in deep thought, " Go. "
Goku's body instantly relaxed back to normal, causing him to nearly fall to the floor from the temporary loss of
balance, " *whew*. That was weird. " he stood up, looking himself over.
" Hmm. " Vegeta smirked, " Kakarrotto! Turn around to face your King, will you? " the ouji asked sweetly.
" Whoa! " Goku yelped as he did so, " Hey Veggie what'd you do to me!! " he shouted, freaked out to say the least.
" I can control peasants' movements. " Vegeta blinked in shock and surprise, " I CAN CONTROL MY PEASANTS WITH SIMPLE
ORDERS!! " he hooted enjoyably, " Oooh, this is GOOD. " Vegeta rubbed his hands together, " I wonder if I can enforce
THOUGHTS into their minds as well....heh-heh, OH the possibilites! " the ouji nearly squealed. Goku was looking terrified and
quickly turned around, then sped out the door and down the stairs in a panic. Vegeta grinned evilly and cheerfully skipped
out of his room, " Oh my beautiful Kaka-SERVANT-MAID?? Where are you? Your KING and RULER has a few orders to order of you. "
he reached the bottom of the stairs, only to find the front door to Capsule Corp swinging back and forth by it's hinges which
had nearly been torn off by the frantic peasant who had just used to to escape certain servant-maid-hood, " Dang. " Vegeta
spat, " KAKARROTTO YOU COME BACK HERE!! I NEED A PEASANT TO TRY OUT MY NEW POWERS ON AND GUESS WHO'S THE ONLY ONE LEFT!!! "
he yelled out, then groaned, " Ohhhh, NOW what am I going to do! "
" Hey Toussan, nice cape! "
" Yeah Uncle Veggie! Lookin snazzy! " two young voices said from behind him. Vegeta looked over his shoulder to see
8 year old Trunks & 7 year old Goten watching TV. Vegeta walked over to them.
" Trunks, hop on one foot. " Vegeta said bluntly.
" What? Why? " Trunks cocked an eyebrow at him.
Vegeta didn't respond, then turned to Goten, " Goten, hop on one foot. "
The boy lept to his feet and began to do so, " Hahaha! This is fun! " Goten grinned up at him, then paused nervously,
" Hey Uncle Veggie my foot won't stop. " he said, worried.
" Ahh, so it only works on actual peasants or those containing peasant blood such as Kaka-spawned creatures.
" Uncle Veggie my foot's getting tired! "
" Yes of course, that explains why Trunks didn't react. And if the extent of my ROYAL powers is in parallel to my ki
powers like it was with my father than that means I can do ALMOST ANYTHING! " he grinned, " THIS IS GREAT! " Vegeta thrust
both of his arms in the air, " Thank you Kakarrotto-chan! " Vegeta laughed, then flew out the door racing off in the
direction of Goku's ki signal, " Here I come Kakay-chan!! BWAHAHA! "
Trunks and Goten stared at the now-empty door for several seconds.
" He's not coming back, is he, Trunks? " Goten said sadly.
" Probably not till tommorow anyway. " Trunks added, sweatdropping.
" Help? " Goten looked down at him.
" Hmm? Oh. " Trunks kicked his own foot out and tripped Goten, causing him to fall on his back. Goten sat up.
" AHH MY FOOT'S STILL MOVING!!! MAKE IT STOP!!! "
" TOUSSAN!!! " Trunks called outside.
" Alright, alright, YOU CAN STOP HOPPING NOW KAKA-SPAWN!! " Vegeta shouted back; Goten's foot stopped moving and he
sighed with relief, then fell back again.
" Remind me next time I come over we watch TV in YOUR room, oh-kay Trunks? " Goten rubbed the side of his head in
pain from falling down the second time.
" Yeah sure. " Trunks said, his eyes glued to the TV again, " Whatever you say. "
" AHH!! "
" Kaasan? " Gohan poked his head in the kitchen. Chi-Chi was standing there in a mid-mix of whatever was in the bowl
she was blending; her face a stark white, " Oh, God! Kaasan are you alright! " he gasped, concerned.
" Did you just feel that? " she said in a weak voice.
" Feel what? "
She turned her head towards him, " An EVIL KI just spiked like a wild-fire out there! It's the Ouji! I just know it!
My Go-chan better not be over there with him, he told me he was going fishing. " Chi-Chi said.
" No he told me he was going over to watch something on TV. We don't have cable like Capsule Corp does. " Gohan
explained.
" YOU MEAN HE'S REALLY AT THAT OUJI'S STRONGHOLD RIGHT NOW!!! WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME!! " Chi-Chi shrieked.
" I thought you knew. " Gohan whinced.
" OHHHH! I TOLD GOKU HE'S NOT ALLOWED TO SEE THAT OUJI FOR A FULL 2 YEARS AFTER WHAT THAT OUJI DID TO HIM IN THE LAST
STORY!! IF HE WANTED TO SEE SOMETHING ON CABLE WHY DOESN'T HE JUST GO TO KURIRIN'S HOUSE!! _THEY_ HAVE CABLE! I _KNOW_ THEY
DO!! "
" Relax Kaasan. " Gohan said, trying to calm her down, he closed his eyes, " Hmm, heh. " he smiled, " No need to
worry Kaasan, Toussan's heading on his way here right now; pretty fast too. Vegeta's coming after him but he's about 2 miles
behind Toussan. It'll take him a while to catch up. "
" It BETTER take him a while to "catch up"! By the time that evil little Ouji gets here he can say goodbye to ugly
face of his! " Chi-Chi pulled out her bazooka and began loading it up.
" Ma, you're not SERIOUS, are you? " Gohan gawked at the weapon.
" *CLICK*CLICK* "
" You're serious. " he groaned, sweatdropping. Chi-Chi was trying out several firing angles specialized for a smaller
target, " You know, if Toussan's running AWAY from Vegeta there's no reason to attack since Toussan'd attack him first anyway
; that is, if this is anything serious. " Gohan explained.
" Shuddup Gohan-chan! Mommy's busy trying to protect you and your brain-dead father from the evil that is Ouji. "
" AHHHHH!! " a high-pitched voice squeaked, followed by the sound of a slamming door. Chi-Chi lept into the living
room, taking aim only to find a single saiyajin across the room from her; Goku.
" GO-CHAN! " Chi-Chi grinned, dropping the bazooka and running over to him, " Oh my baby I'm so GLAD you're oh-kay! I
thought that Ouji was going to do something TERRIBLE and DISGUSTING with you! "
" HE _WAS_! " Goku exclaimed. Chi-Chi pulled a double-take.
" Ha-whaaa did you say? " she blinked in shock.
" Veggie-was-sad-because-he-wasn't-King-so-I-crowned-him-King-and-made-him-a-very-happy-little-Veggie-chan-but-he-got
-all-these-new-scary-powers-and-used-them-to-freeze-my-body-and-make-me-turn-around-and-now-he-wants-to-use-them-to-get-me-to
-play-servant-maid-to-him-when-all-I'd-rather-be-is-Veggie's-oujo-instead-cuz-it-sounds-like-such-a-fun-job-doesn't-it
-though? " Goku rattled off quickly.
" ...uhh, sure. " Chi-Chi sweatdropped, patting him on the back, " Whatever you say honey. "
" KAKARROTTO! "
Goku's head bolted on the alert, " Lil-lil Veggie? " he gulped, then looked through the peep-hole in the front door
to see the small saiyajin standing on the welcome mat, " Awww, look how CUTE Veggie is in his lil cape on the mat! " the
larger saiyajin felt his heart melt, " I just wanna grab little Veggie, take him inside, and hug him for DAYS!!! " Goku
clasped his hands together, " So proud, and yet so little he could slip out of my arms and fall head-first onto the floor. "
" Yeah.... " Chi-Chi sweatdropped, " Goku how about you go wait in the hallway while Gohan and I deal with the EVIL
one!! "
" But Veggie isn't evil, he's just stubborn and persistant. " Goku said as Chi-Chi pushed him around the corner.
" Oh you're just saying that because you like that little monster. " she brushed it off.
" OF COURSE I DO HE'S MY LITTLE BUDDY!!! " Goku exclaimed, then froze in shock as the front door instantly melted to
reveal a grinning Vegeta.
" Heh-heh, laser vision. " Vegeta snickered, pointing to his eyes, " So, Kakay-chan, " he said warmly, then glared at
Chi-Chi, " Onna. "
" Ouji. " she glared back.
" We meet again. " Vegeta walked past her and up to Goku, " You know I've been fiddling with all my new powers, and
I've discovered the larger part of them I never knew I had before. This has givin me many new routes to take Kakay. "
" Routes for what little Veggie? " Goku smiled, amused at him.
" My kingdom, you see. " Vegeta cracked his knuckles.
" Veggie's "kingdom"? Little Veggie doesn't have his kingdom, it blew up. " Goku said, confused.
" Yes, but that doesn't mean I can't UNblow it up. Kakarrotto; my "princess"; within the next several hours I will
have my kingdom returned to me and be able to finally create the rule I was supposed to have over it the FIRST time around."
" Wait! " Goku held his hand out, then bent down to Vegeta's height and smiled with delight, " Did MY _LITTLE VEGGIE_
just call me his ~*PRINCESS*~??? " Goku's eyes widened to two big black sparkily blobs.
" ....uhhh, I, umm, yes? " Vegeta grinned cheesily.
" AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! " Goku squealed, grabbing the ouji and hugging him tightly, " OH LITTLE VEGGIE I LOVE YOU!!!"
" NO YOU DON'T! NO HE DOESN'T! GOKU LET GO OF HIM RIGHT NOW!! " Chi-Chi shrieked in terror.
" Yes...Kaka...rrotto....PLEASE let go...of me... " Vegeta squeaked out, trying to breathe through the tightness
around his ribcage at the moment due to Goku's hug.
" Aww, I'll NEVER let go Veggie! Never never never! " Goku swung the ouji back and forth while still hugging him.
Vegeta's face turned a blue tint from lack of oxygen.
Chi-Chi whacked Goku over the head with her bazooka. Goku instantly dropped Vegeta to the ground.
" I'll let go. " he said quickly.
" Good. " Chi-Chi smiled, " Now that's MY Go-chan. " she glared at Vegeta when she hit the emphesis on "my".
" Neh neh neh, "MY Go-chan". " Vegeta mocked her. Chi-Chi grabbed the bazooka and turned it on.
" Why you little-- "
" CHI-CHAN NO!! " Goku lept between the two of them, Vegeta grinned boastfully from behind Goku, " If you're gonna
try to shoot at little Veggie go outside! He can't dodge well in here and you'll end up destorying the bottom floor to the
house!! " the ouji sweatdropped at Goku's explaination.
::I knew it was too good to be true...:: Vegeta cussed in his head.
" Why Goku! That's very intellegent of you! Gohan's genius must be rubbing off on you! " Chi-Chi said happily, " I'm
so proud! "
Gohan sweatdropped in the corner, embarassed, " Doesn't genius sort of rub off in the other direction Kaasan? Father
to son, I mean. "
" Gohan you're so smart your genius must be just RADIATING through this household! " she chirped excitedly, then
turned back to Vegeta and Goku only to sweatdrop to see them both now wearing gas masks, " Ha ha, Ouji. It is too laugh. "
Chi-Chi remarked, then grabbed Goku's gas mask and yanked it off.
Goku instantly gasped for air and fell to the floor like a fish out of water, " AHH! CAN'T...BREATHE! I'm going going
going, going.....going... "
" Goku shuddup! " Chi-Chi felt a vein bulge on her forehead in frustration, " HONESTLY! "
Goku whimpered, sitting up.
" Kakarrotto, if you'll need me I'll be off rescuing and restoring my homeland...well, everything BUT the homeland
itself, I found I'm not able to revive destoryed planets, " he trailed off, then grinned, " BUT I'm going to save everything
else! You can meet me at the royal palace in about 2 hours. I'll have the guards let you in. Tell them your "little buddy"
sent you! " Vegeta nodded, then blasted off.
" BYE VEGGIE! HAVE FUN!! " Goku shouted off in Vegeta's direction, then turned to Chi-Chi, " Veggie has the sweetest
imagination I know! "
" I think he's delusional. " Chi-Chi muttered, " He can't "revive" his whole KINGDOM! It's impossible! You need the
dragonballs to do that and they're inactive! "
" Calm down Chi-chan, little Veggie's just playing pretend with us. " Goku smiled, " It's so cute. I bet the royal
palace is gonna be a cute little tent or cabin or something Veggie'll make during the next 2 hours. "
" Dad IS speaking more realistically, Mom. " Gohan joined the conversation, " Vegeta's gotten his "King" powers so
now he's going to pretend he has a kingDOM to go along with it. "
" Veggie's other subjects are his stuffed animals. " Goku said happily.
" Well, that's comforting. " Chi-Chi said, then frowned uneasily, " But for what it's worth Vegeta has a knack for
going "over-the-top" with his stupid little plans. " her eyes widened, " What if he DOES have the power to bring back all
the other saiyajins? "
" Well then I'd say you're in trouble. " Gohan replied, " I can see fighting with just him over Toussan, but an
entire ARMY of saiyajins? There's no way you could beat 'um all Kaasan. "
" OF COURSE I CAN! " Chi-Chi snapped, " Goku and I are married and we love each other and you just can't come over
and BREAK THE BONDS OF TRUE LOVE!!! "
" You can't break the bonds of a portara fusion either but me-n-Veggie managed to do that. " Goku added happily.
" ... " Chi-Chi sweatdropped, " Don't discourage me Goku; besides there was never a bond between you and the ouji due
to those silly earrings. "
" AND JUST _HOW_ DO YOU EXPLAIN JI-CHAN THEN!! " Goku exclaimed.
" There IS no "Ji-chan". Vejitto was merely a figment of your imagination. " she laughed it off.
" Oh-kay, Mom now I _KNOW_ you're denying the obvious. " Gohan said flatly.
Chi-Chi snorted, " Fine! I'll admit that that "fusion-baby" exists, BUT I'LL NEVER ADMIT TO THAT "BONDING" THOSE TWO
TOGETHER IN ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM!!! "
Goku smiled impishly and gave a hard tug on his left ear.
" YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWW!!!! " Vegeta screamed in pain several miles away, clutching his right ear in
agony.
" Heeheehee. " Goku giggled. Chi-Chi and Gohan sweatdropped.
" Tell me that wasn't what I just think it was? " a larger sweatdrop appeared on Gohan's head.
" COINCIDENCE! PURE COINCIDENCE and that's ALL it is. " Chi-Chi said firmly.
" You should see what happens when I tickle my left ear. " Goku grinned menacingly.
Chi-Chi grumbled, " I'd rather not.. " she glanced out the window to the front yard, " However, as long as we know
that Ouji's wreaking havoc outside for the next 2 hours I want YOU to stay INside. Think you could do that for me Go-chan;
seeing as how "smitten" you are for your "little buddy". " she mocked at the end of her sentence.
" Sure! " Goku gave her a thumbs-up, " Veggie'll probably be bored by then anyway and go home. " he hopped on the
couch and stretched, " Or MAYBE he'll show me his little pretend Veggie-castle. Heh-heh, I bet it'll be all cute-n-little
just like Veggie! Or maybe it'll be one of the caves up near the mountain and Veggie'll put a big sign on it that says
"King Veggie's Royal Castle" or something silly like that! "
" Only in your dreams, Goku. " Chi-Chi said sarcastically. He frowned, " Sheesh! The Ouji's not a simpleton who
waddles around acting all "cute-n-fuzzy" for your own amusement! He's an EVIL EVIL little creature bent on my destruction and
YOUR enslavement!!! "
" "servant-maid-hood". " Goku corrected her.
" ...ugh. " Chi-Chi groaned, " Go to sleep Goku, I'll wake you up in 2 hours and we can see what sort of damage that
Ouji's caused to the masses. "
" Alright Chi-chan! " he grinned at her, then leaned his head back and instantly fell into a deep sleep.
Chi-Chi sweatdropped at the speed he had slipped into dreamland, " I wish _I_ could get to bed that easy. "
2 Hours Pass...
" Hahaha! Boy I love this show. " Goku grinned as he sat indian-style on the couch, watching TV.
" What show? " Chi-Chi walked over to him while cleaning a dish, then gawked at the two characters on the screen
while the show was recapping the previous today's episode, " It's you and the Ouji!? "
" Yeah, I call it the "Me-n-Veggie" show! I wonder how they got a camera down inside Buu though. I don't remember
seeing a camera there OH LOOKIT Veggie's face when he's hiding behind me he looks all nerve-shot & huggable. And there are
the worms! " he turned to Chi-Chi, " The worms scared poor little Veggie cuz they were really big and Veggie's really little
and aww lookit Veggie's expression there he looks so silly covered in goo and-- "
" *click* " Chi-Chi turned the TV off.
" HEY! " Goku protested, " What was that for! "
" Don't we get enough of his ugly mug during the day! " Chi-Chi exclaimed, then looked at her watch, " Speaking of
the Ouji I think he must've given up on "re-creating" his kingdom by now. It's been more than 2 hours and we haven't heard a
peep out of him; where-ever he is. "
" Ohh. " Goku pouted at the TV, then gasped, " OH NO! If Veggie hasn't come back or contacted us that means he's in
TROUBLE! Maybe he's trapped somewhere and can't get out! Or unconsious! Or eaten by a BEAR! "
" Bears don't eat PEOPLE, Goku. " Chi-Chi sweatdropped.
" How would you know! Veggie unintentionally aggitates people and animals all the time! I HAVE TO SAVE HIM! " Goku
made a mad dash for the front door and flung it open.
" GO-CHAN NO!! " Chi-Chi raced past him to infront of the welcome mat only to fall to the floor in pain. Goku stared
down at her, confused.
" Chi-chan what happened? "
" I fell, what did you think just happened. " Chi-Chi grumbled, a little embarassed. She tried to get up, only
instantly finding it very difficult, " GAH!! WHAT DID THAT OUJI DO!! "
Goku stepped out and pulled her upright again, " There air seems kinda heavier. "
" KIND OF! IT'S INSANELY HEAVY!! LIKE THAT OUJI'S GRAVITY ROOM!! " Chi-Chi cried.
" No, well, sort of. But this only feels like the gravity's gotten about 10X heavier, this is nothing compaired to
the 500X & 600X Veggie trains at. " Goku explained.
" You mean, that Ouji can live at an additional 50 TIMES how heavy it is out here NOW?! " Chi-Chi's jaw hung open
slightly.
" Mmm-hmm! " Goku nodded happily, " It all really depends on how Veggie's feeling that day though. Sometimes he can
be SO unpredictable! " the larger saiyajin chirped.
" Yeah he's unpredictable alright... " Chi-Chi grumbled, " At least our house still feels the same inside. " she
turned to walk back into their house.
" Hey Chi-chan look! We've got neighbors! " Goku grinned, pointing off into the distance.
" Nonsense Goku, there isn't a single other house for about 100 miles! HOW could we have neighbors. " Chi-Chi brushed
it off.
" No! Chi-chan really! There's HUNDREDS of 'um. " Goku said in awe. His eyes widened into two big sparkily blobs,
" Oh my goodness! IT'S VEGGIE'S CASTLE!! " he squealed.
" WHAT?! " Chi-Chi bolted to attention, then rushed back out over to him, " WHERE?! THERE IS NO CASTLE! "
" It's THERE! " Goku said happily, pointing Chi-Chi in the direction of a huge hill were ontop of was positioned a
HUGE gorgeous foreign-looking castle, " That must be where my little Veggie is! "
Chi-Chi surveyed everything before them. Hundreds of houses and shops surrounded one side of the castle, as if all
looking up to it for advice. The castle itself stood beautifully tall. A large flag with the royal house of Bejito-sei's
family symbol waving in the breeze from the highest point on the castle.
" It's beautiful. " Goku mused.
Chi-Chi stared at the flag and sweatdropped, " It's...a castle, alright... "
" Veggie's castle is even more amazing than he told me and I ever imagined! " Goku said in awe.
" He TOLD you about his "castle"? " Chi-Chi cocked an eyebrow.
" Oh all the time! Veggie said when I was a baby my family lived there & Veggie used to play with me! " the larger
saiyajin said happily, " Of course I was just a chubby, unable-to-walk baby and Veggie had to carry me on his back in order
to drag me places, but we had FUN!....at least I think we probably would've, I don't remember anything about Bejito-sei but
I assume we had fun together. Veggie said I used to teethe on the walls a lot. I wonder what that means... " he trailed off.
" It means you were chewing on the walls, Toussan. " Gohan pointed out, walking outside towards them.
" Wait, if the Ouji knew you when you were a toddler, than THAT MEANS HE'S HAD YOU IN HIS CLUTCHES SINCE _BIRTH_!? "
Chi-Chi shrieked, then hugged Goku's arm, " Oh Go-chan that's TERRIBLE! " she gawked.
Goku's eyes widened, " What's terrible is I can't find little Veggie's KI!! " he gulped.
" You can't! " Chi-Chi grinned, " Maybe the peasants revolted and KILLED him or something WONDERFUL like that! "
Goku looked down at her in complete horror and disturbment, " ... "
" Actually I think that because of all the new and MANY other saiyajin ki's and the fact that Vegeta's probably kept
his own lowered for safety purposes is probably why he's now a lot harder to spot. " Gohan explained.
" Oh. Oh-kay then. " Goku nodded, " In that case I'll just fly over to the castle and see if Veggie's there. "
" GOKU DON'T! " Chi-Chi shouted.
Goku paused in mid-air, " Why not? "
" Goku, you don't see anyone ELSE flying around here, do you? Don't you think it'd be a little odd and you'd be
EASILY SPOTTED by the WRONG PERSON that way! We'll all WALK to the "castle". " she said stubbornly. Goku pouted and floated
down the ground.
" You were talking about my little Veggie when you said "the wrong person", weren't you, Chi-chan! " Goku said,
insulted, " Well let me tell you something about my little buddy! He's not a bad person in any respect he's just very very
confused...and little! " Goku shook his finger at her.
" Uh-huh. " Chi-Chi looked skeptical, then turned around, " Come on Gohan, we're going to find that stupid little
Ouji. " she walked off, leaving Goku and Gohan standing there. Chi-Chi yelped suddenly and tripped over a small rock, causing
her to swiftly fall on her face. The saiyajin and half-saiyajin cringed; due the to the 10X normal gravity Chi-Chi had not
only fell but also made a several-inch deep body-shaped hole in the ground.
" Oww. " Gohan frowned.
" Serves Chi-chan right for insulting little Veggie on his own kingdom grounds. " Goku snorted, then walked over to
Chi-Chi and helped her up, " Is Chi-chan oh-kay? " he asked, worried.
" I think so... " Chi-Chi's pupils were spinning around in her eyeballs and she was looking clearly dizzy.
" Lemmie help you out Chi-chan. " Goku held her up with one arm and the trio began to make their way to the outskirts
leading towards the very-far-away royal castle, they walked for about 5 minutes until they made it to the first set of houses
, or rather, huts. There standing infront of a fairly large hut stood a familiar figure gawking in shock to what was inside
the two wild-west-style doors.
" Bulma! " Goku chirped, running over to her, soon followed by Gohan and Chi-Chi, " Why are you standing there with
you're mouth hanging open Bulma? " he asked curiously.
Bulma answered but continued to stare straight ahead, " Goku, I was coming home from a meeting when I saw all these
buildings materialize out of nowhere...at, at first I thought I was seeing things, I still think I am, but, " she turned to
him in disbelief, " THEY'RE _EVERYWHERE_! " she looked shocked and confused.
" What's everywhere? " Gohan asked her, " I don't see any-- " he paused as he caught something out of the corner of
his eye poking its head out of a nearby hut window. He blinked.
Chi-Chi sniffed the air and cringed, " Oh EEW! " she pinched her nose, " It smells like Goku just had several feeding
frenzies out here and never threw anything away!! "
The larger saiyajin took a whiff himself and sighed happily, " I LIKE it! " he grinned, then spotted a nearby
trashcan and walked over to it only to find it filled to the brim with leftover fish parts, animal bones, and wrappers to
pastry goods. A larger grin appeared on his face, " These are my kinda people! "
" HA! No kidding. " Bulma mock-laughed, now staring back into the building from before.
" Maybe we should try communicating with them. I mean, their trash looks fresh, whatever kind of saiyajins they are
if they eat like Toussan they can't be that bad, right? " Gohan suggested.
Goku gave him an oh-kay signal with his thumb, then took a deep breath and shouted at the top of his lungs, " HIIIIII
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!! " Goku squealed.
Dozens of heads instantly poked their way out of the windows and doorways, all staring at the quartet. The gang's
eyes nearly popped out of their heads. They were all dressed in raggedy clothes, some were still chewing on their food. And
every single one of them looked exactly like Goku.
" It's a whole village of GOKUS!!! " Chi-Chi gawked.
" Heeheehee, " one of the saiyajins grinned and waddled over to her. He took the fish he was partly knawing on out of
his mouth and held it out in front of her, " Naka no popo de lo FIIIISH? "
Chi-Chi turned a pale green at the sight of the raw, dead, munched on fish, " Uhh, no thank you. " she sweatdropped.
" Neh! " the Goku-look-alike shrugged and shoved the entire fish into his mouth, then instantly swallowed it, " Ahh..
Waamee! "
" Well, at least we know they're friendly, I think. " Gohan sweatdropped.
" Of course the fact that we don't know what they're saying doesn't do a thing to help us. " Bulma sighed.
" That's because all these me's are speaking Veggie-ese! " Goku giggled.
" "Veggie-ese"??? " Bulma cocked an eyebrow.
" "Saiyago". " Chi-Chi corrected them both.
" Yeah, Saiyago. But I always called it Veggie-ese cuz Veggie's the only one who speaks it...or at least, he WAS the
only one who speaks it. " Goku scratched his head, " When I crowned Veggie earlier he made me repeat this Veggie-ese sentence
while doing so. And what they're saying sounds kinda like Veggie-ese. " he said.
" You--you don't think the Ouji knows they're all out here, do you? " Chi-Chi said, worried, " He could make an
entire "Go-chan HAREM" with all these poor little guys. " she then pinched her nose, " Poor, SMELLY, little guys. " Chi-Chi
looked them all over, then grabbed Gohan by the collar, " I'M NOT STRONG ENOUGH TO SAVE ALL THESE GOKUS, GOHAN-CHAN!!! THE
OUJI'LL TAKE THEM ALL BACK TO HIS CASTLE AND ENSLAVE THEM ALL!!!! I CAN'T LET THEM ALL END UP IN A GO-CHAN OUJI _HAREM_!!! "
" Chi-chan I think Veggie'd probably call it a Kaka-harem or something like that. He doesn't call me by my Earth
name. " Goku pointed out.
" WELL HE'S NOT GONNA _GET_ HIS "KAKA-HAREM" AS LONG AS _I'M_ AROUND!!! " Chi-Chi screamed.
" Heeee! Aww Chi-chan they're all so cute and look just like ME! " Goku grinned, not paying attention. Chi-Chi fell
over, her arm twitching.
" Kaasan I really don't think Vegeta'd be interested in a whole "harem" of "Kakarrottos". He's after a
"servant-maid"; not a princess or anything awkward like that. " Gohan tried to calm her down.
" But I _AM_ Veggie's princess. " Goku pouted.
" OH YOU ARE _NOT_!! " Chi-Chi snapped at him, sitting up and coincidentally mildly frightening the gokus from the
village, who all backed away from her slightly.
" I wonder if they know where Veggie is! " Goku grinned, turning to a small group of the saiyajins, " Hi! "
" HI!! " they all happily replied. Goku beamed.
" Wow, I think we're really connecting here. THIS IS SO COOL!! " he said to his friends excitedly.
" I guess they must be from Son-kun's "tribe" or something. " Bulma sweatdropped.
" What I wanna know is who mothered them all! There must be almost 100 of them here!! " Chi-Chi exclaimed.
" SO! " Goku clasped his hands together, " Have any of you seen my little Veggie? " he lowered his hand down to where
the top of Vegeta's head would be, " Veh-gee? "
They all cocked their heads in various angles. Goku sighed.
" Veggie! He's, he's my little buddy. You know, little, small " he held his pointer finger and thumb a couple
centimeters away from one another, " LITTLE. "
" Little! " a random Goku-look-alike grinned at him, making the same motion with his fingers.
" YEAH! That's it! Little! " Goku said happily.
" Heehee, little! " they all exchanged happy nods to each other.
" This is GREAT! Half the battle's over already! " Goku snapped his fingers, then got down on his knees and began to
draw something in the dirt. When he was done he revealed what looked like a cutsy, chibinized version of Vegeta doodled in
the ground, " VEGGIE! " he pointed to his drawing.
" That doodle's too innocent-looking to be the Ouji. They'll NEVER get it the way Goku drew him. " Chi-Chi grumbled.
" Shh! Kaasan! " Gohan sweatdropped, embarassed at her sudden outburst.
" Veggie? " they all blinked at the doodle, confused.
" Hai, Veggie! You know, Veggie. As in Veggie-ta. Vegeta! " Goku sighed, exasperated.
" OH! " a couple of the saiyajins looked over at him as if they had gotten it.
" Vegeta no Ou! " one of the two said, pointing at the picture, " Haha, kawapse zo dala Vegeta Ou. " he giggled at
the doodle.
" They know Veggie!! " Goku grinned, " I call him King Veggie! "
" Does he like being called that? " another Goku-ish saiyajin asked curiously.
" SURE! I've been calling Veggie Veggie for a long time now! It makes you feel all warm-n-fluffy inside. " Goku
replied, completely ignoring the fact that the other saiyajin had just spoken english.
" HEY! " Chi-Chi snapped at him, " I THOUGHT YOU GUYS DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO SPEAK ENGLISH, HUH!! "
" Course we do! " he happily replied.
" Silly lady, we're just playing! " another laughed at her.
" Nobody ever comes to play with us. " a third goku frowned.
" You are our first visitors in a long time! " a forth hopped infront of them.
" Aww, really? That's so sad. " Goku pouted, " You all seems so nice. "
" How long have you been alone? " Bulma asked, " I mean, how long has it been since someone came to visit you. "
The third looked at his watch, " Mmm, about 20 minutes. "
" WAHH! " everyone sans Goku and his look-alikes fell over.
" They're definitely related to Go-chan alright. " Chi-Chi groaned from the floor.
" King Veggie called everybody telepathically a little while ago to tell us he was the one who brought us back and
where he had brought us too and stuff! " the second goku grinned, instantly adopting the new nickname for their king.
" Well I'm the one who gave little Veggie his king powers in the first place. " Goku said proudly, then ripped off
the blue sash around his gi to expose his tail, which flung out and happily began to waft in the breeze along with the other
saiyajins.
" WOW!! YOU'RE JUST LIKE US!! " one of the gokus said excitedly, " Peasants can crown KINGS? "
" Mmm-hmm! That's because I'm a SPECIAL peasant! " Goku said, then broke into a huge Son grin, " I'm VEGGIE'S
PRINCESS!!! "
All the other saiyajins stared at him in an excited awe, " Realllly? "
" REALLY!! " Goku squealed.
" ALL HAIL KING VEGGIE!!! " all the look-a-likes cheered at once.
" Speaking of Veggie I gotta get going and find him. That's why me & Chi-chan and Gohan and Bulma are all here. We
need to find Veggie. "
" He's probably at the castle. " a random goku answered.
" GREAT! " Goku spun around, ready to take off.
" Wanna eat before you go? "
Goku spun around the other way, " Food for me? " he grinned at the other peasants.
" Mmm! Yeah we got a lot of food! " some of them rubbed their bellies.
" HEE! LUNCH TIME!! " Goku patted his own stomach, then followed several of the peasants back inside the larger
building, " AND I can tell you all about my little Veggie while I'm eating, and you can tell me other stuff! It'll be FUN! "
" FUN!! " another goku chirped from behind him, " FUN and learning about Veggie! "
" Not "learning about Veggie", " Goku corrected him, then grinned, " VEGGIE-TIME! "
" VEGGIE-TIME! " the others chanted repeatedly, all going inside, leaving Gohan, Chi-Chi, and Bulma alone and staring
off in their direction in complete bewilderment.
" Well, this is going to be a little tougher than imagined. " Gohan sweatdropped.
Chi-Chi gulped, her shoulders slumped, " We're doomed... "

END OF PART ONE!
Vegeta: (sweatdrops) Wow...this is certainly going to be a bizarre one.
Chuquita: (grinning) And we haven't even gotten to where YOU are yet.
Goku: (happily) I like all the other me's, they're silly!
Vegeta: (shivers) I seriously can't imagine having to deal with more than one Kakarrotto; not the dare think of what over
100 of them would do!
Goku: (giggles) Heehee, Veggie wouldn't melt with glowing-redness, he's go straight to a steamy red Veggie-gas form!
Vegeta: (grumbles) Yes Kakarrotto, thanks a lot.
Goku: You know you would. Veggie wouldn't even get to saying "Aww, Kakay" before he turned into gas.
Vegeta: Stupid Kaka-village.
Chuquita: HEY! I LIKE the "Kaka-village". And the Kaka-village-eers come into the plot later on so I need 'um. (shrugs)
Besides, a lot of the stories I've read that take place on Bejito-sei always seem so dark and angsty. This is brighter.
Goku: (grins) And nothing can brighten up a planet like a village fulla ME!
Vegeta: (sweatdrops) You can say that again-- (to Chu) (Mr. Correction) They're not even ON Bejito-sei. They're all on
Earth right now.
Chuquita: Oh well, you get the basic idea. Before I forget I'd like to ask the audiance a question and see if anyone can
answer it for me. It's actually about Veggie.
Vegeta: _I_ could answer THAT.
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) (to audiance) It's about the many many flashbacks Veggie has in episode 280 "Vegeta's Hat's Off to
Goku; You're #1" which I think the dub title to is "Vegeta's Respect", I'm not sure, (turns to Veggie) Is it?
Vegeta: (shrugs) How should I know.
Chuquita: (larger sweatdrop) Yah, you're name's ONLY the first word in the TITLE. (back to audiance) Anyway, I've only seen
the sub to this episode and in it Veggie has a number of flashbacks. (which are conviently re-drawn instead of the usual
recycled flashbacks dbz uses :D ) They all go in chronological order. Too make it simple, it's Veggie sees Goku for the
first time, some of that battle; it moves to Veggie's first thought that Son might be the legendary super saiyajin while
Son's facing off against Rukkuum (spelling error?; beats me) then some more shots of namek, then it zooms ahead to the when
Son returns for the tournement, then some headshots of Son and the bad guys he fought; Freeza, Cell, I think Gero's in
there or one of the androids; and then there's the last flashback which I cannot for the life of me place ANYWHERE within
the dbz timeline specturm. Veggie's in his current outfit and in ssj; so is Son, the moon's behind them, and Veggie's
floating up to Son while Son's floating down to him--due to their height difference,
Vegeta: (grumble) Had to throw in a "Veggie's short" hint in there, didn'tcha?
Chuquita: (ignores Veggie) Anyway, they float and float and just about to smash into each others noses when the image
cracks and Veggie gets sucked back out of his flashback to where Buu and Son-kun are fighting and finishes off his little
monologue with the whole "fight hard Kakarrotto, you're number 1" quote. Now since I KNOW every other scene was a
flashback due to the fact that all that stuff really happened to Veggie instead of it being his imagination, I don't think
the last scene was his imagination. So here's the question; is this last flashback from one of the movies that I haven't
seen? Or is this just some weird little bit of Veggie's imagination acting up on him. It's nightime in this scene; both
saiyajins are alive. There's no possible point in time this could have occured unless it was before Cell was beaten, and
I know Veggie didn't wear the tanktop until several YEARS after Cell was destoryed. Please if you recognize this scene
from one of the dbz movies, tell me in your review, or e-mail me, either one works.
Vegeta: (smirking) It's driving you nuts, isn't it?
Chuquita: It's been driving me nuts since I first saw the episode!!!! There's no LOGICAL point in time it could have
taken place in!!! There's GOT to be a logical explaination!!
Goku: (grinning) With Veggie you're lucky if you even GET an explaination for what he does!
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) Hmm, good point. But STILL, I'd like to know.
Vegeta: Chu, there's so many PLOTHOLES in our show that just one little scene like that is hardly worth worrying about.
Goku: Yeah, besides Piccolo had destoryed the moon so how could it be behind us like that!
Vegeta: (snickering) Yes, unless I was slipping from daydreaming into one of my exotic saiyajin fantasies, (turns to
Goku) right, SERVANT-MAID?
Goku: (freezes) (backs his chair up a couple feet)
Chuquita: (flatly) Thanks Vedge.
Vegeta: (smirks) Don't mention it.
Chuquita: Oh! The cheek-to-cheek ki blast episode is on today so don't miss it!
Vegeta: (sweatdrops) That was the most uncomfortable 45 seconds of my life.
Goku: (happily) Aww, I had fun being cheek-to-cheek with my little Veggie!
Vegeta: I DIDN'T!!! IT LOOKED LIKE WE WERE DOING THE TANGO OR SOMETHING!!!
Goku: (big cheesy grin) Heeheehee! Veggie wiping my "kaka-germs" off his face, and then me saying "hey Vegeta, how are
you doing over there" and then Veggie freaks out. Or, or in the dub when dub me says "Hey, we make a GREAT TEAM" and
then Veggie freaks out. Or-- (notices the deeply embarassed and threatening look on Veggie's face) --heeheehee.
Vegeta: (grimaces) Yes, that is the episode on this Monday.
Goku: (to audiance) And if you enjoyed watching Veggie freak out last Thursday and Friday, just WAIT till what you get
to see today!
Chuquita: (grins) Not to mention Son-kun's cute lil "heeheehee, heeheeheehee" song he performs for Veggie!
Goku: Yeah, I sounded really really CUTE in the sub. Dub me tried to heehee too, but his voice is too bold and manish
to giggle.
Chuquita: You mean "manly", don't you Son?
Goku: ... (blinks) What did I say?
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) Nevermind. Son's japanese voice was done by a girl, that's why his giggle sounded more natural.
Vegeta: (eyes bulging out of his head) Wait, Kakarrotto's voiced by a GIRL?!
Chuquita: (cocks an eyebrow) What? You didn't notice that before?
Vegeta: Uhh...I just...assumed, uhh... (looks up at Goku awkwardly) Voiced by a girl huh Kakay? (sweatdrop) That
explains a lot.
Goku: ... (confused) (perks up) SAY GOODBYE TIL PART 2, VEGGIE!
Vegeta: Goodbye till part 2.
Chuquita: We'll see you then.
Goku: How many cows does it take to get to the tootsie-roll center of a tootsie pop?
Vegeta: I don't know--5?
Goku: (grins) 8!!
Vegeta: ...sometimes I just don't get you, Kakarrotto.
Goku: (happily) Neither do I!!
