By Scott Riddle
Son-Gohan woke up slowly, but didn't get out of bed. The training session with his father the night before had taken a lot out of him. He just lay there, listening to the sounds of a near-by road. When Son-Gohan did get out of bed, he walked around 'his' room with his eyes closed. He knew where everything was by heart--or so he thought. When He went to go out the door, which he had left open, he hit wall. He searched for a doorknob with one hand as he massaged the spot where he hit his forehead with the other. After a minute or so of this, he still couldn't find a doorknob. Son Gohan slowly opened his eyes. Looking around him he realized he was *not* in his room, or even his house. Son-Gohan found the door, which was on the other side of the room, and walked out. He found himself, to his surprise, in part of the Capsule Corp. building. He wandered around, looking for someone, and wondering why he was at Burma's place. Son-Gohan found 'Vegitta' sleeping on a couch. ~I must be up really early if Vegitta is still asleep, unless Burma slipped him a very large sleeping pill.~ "Hey, Vegitta?" Son-Gohan said softly, wanting to know why he was at Capsule Corp., but not wanting to have his head blown off by a grumpy Saiya-jin prince. "Wha?...Vegitta's Here..." Replied a groggy 'Vegitta.' "Vegitta?" Son-Gohan tried again, a bit louder. 'Vegitta' Just groaned and tried to roll over, only to roll off the couch he was on. ~Weird,~ Son-Gohan thought, ~That's exactly what dad does when me or mom try to get *him* up.~ 'Vegitta' sighed as he got up. Looking at Gohan, he said "Morning Trunks. Hey, when'd you get so tall?" Son-Gohan looked behind him, expecting to see Trunks. No one there. Gohan looked back to 'Vegitta,' head cocked to one side. "Vegitta, are you feeling OK?" 'Vegitta's' turn to look behind him. "Vegitta's here? I don't see him...What are you talking about Trunks?" Son-Gohan got mad at 'Vegitta' and did a *REALLY* stupid thing. He yelled at 'Vegitta.' "I AM NOT YOUR SON, TRUNKS! I AM *GOHAN!* ARE YOU *BLIND,* OR DO YOU JUST WANT TO TICK ME OFF!?!?" Son-Gohan immediately wished he hadn't screamed at 'Vegitta' and, cowering, took a step back. 'Vegitta' looked very dumb-founded, but quickly put on a grin that rivaled Son-Gokuu's in naive cocky-ness. This truly freaked poor Son-Gohan out, who had never seen Vegitta smile before (Apart from Vegitta's evil smirk). "Well, I don't think I'm blind. I mean, I can see you standing in front of me, but you sure look like Trunks." Gohan nodded slowly, then an insane idea hit him (indicated w/ an anime style spark on the forehead). "Follow me," He said, grabbing 'Vegitta's' wrist and dragging him down the hall and to the nearest bathroom. Son-Gohan shoved 'Vegitta' in front of the mirror and stood behind him. Instead of his own face in the mirror, Son-Gohan saw Trunks was staring back at him. When 'Vegitta looked into the mirror, his eyes got wider then Son-Gohan thought possible and his jaw nearly hit the sink under the mirror. "I-I-I'm *Vegitta*!?" he yelled, totally confused. "Shut up," Son-Gohan hissed, "You'll wake up Burma." He paused, then "Dad, Is that you?" "Yea Gohan. It's me...We should try and find Vegitta and Trunks." Son-Gokuu said. "Good idea dad." Then after a minute, "This is weird." "What is?" Son-Gokuu asked as they headed for the door. "Calling *Vegitta* dad." Son-Gokuu didn't respond as the two of them shot off for the Son house. Vegitta woke up and found himself facing a sleeping Chi-Chi. Instead of yelling and waking her up he moved away from her, only to fall off the bed. Chi-Chi just rolled over at the sound. Vegitta got off the floor and stormed into Son-Gohan's room. He shook the kid harshly. "What am I doing in this house?!" He demanded. 'Son-Gohan' rubbed his eyes. "It's your house, Son-Gokuu." He paused and looked around the room. "I think I'm the one who should be asking what I'm doing in your house, and in your son's room." 'Son-Gohan' stretched, then jumped out of bed. He obviously misjudged how tall either he or the bed was, and fell on his but. Vegitta stood there frowning. "When the heck did I get so short?" Kid, you've always been that short," Vegitta said harshly. 'Son-Gohan' got up and walked into the bathroom. Vegitta heard a gasp, then the sound of someone falling off something. Vegitta shrugged, then went to brush something out of his eyes. As he pulled on it he felt a sharp pain on his scalp, and quickly realized it was his hair. He let go of the hair and walked into the bathroom. 'Son-Gohan' was sitting on the edge of the bathtub, thinking. Vegitta looked into the mirror and saw Son-Gokuu staring back at him. "WHAT THE!! KAKKROTTO!!!!!" He yelled, ripping the mirror off the and throwing to the floor, shattering it. Vegitta whipped around to face 'Son-Gohan,' "Who do I look like to you?!" "Son-Gokuu" 'Son-Gohan said, looking up. "You say you don't live here?" 'Son-Gohan' nodded. "Then who are you?" "Trunks," he said simply. "Come on brat," Vegitta growled, "we're going to find Kakkrotto and his kid." and he ran out of the house, Trunks on his tail. The four Saiya-jins passed in the air, about half way between the Son house and the main building of Capsule Corp., Son-Gokuu and Vegitta were maybe 30ft. from each other when they passed. Vegitta did a double-take before realizing who is was and slamming on the brakes. He literally skidded to a halt in mid-air. "KAKKROTTO!!" he screamed as he reversed direction. "Wha?" Son-Gokuu stopped and hovered there, "Hey Gohan, I think we found Vegitta!" Son-Gohan came back over to his dad as a very peeved Vegitta (In Son-Gokuu's body) and Trunks stopped near Son-Gokuu. "Kakkrotto!! What is the meaning of this?!" Vegitta bellowed, "And wipe that smile off your face!" Vegitta didn't like the way he looked when he was *really* smiling. "I don't know why we are in each others bodies. To tell you the truth, I was looking for you to try and find out." Meanwhile, Trunks and Son-Gohan were talking. "They are going to rip each other apart before we can get back to normal," Trunks said, watching at the two full grown men, one talking calmly, the other yelling his head off. "I think we should try and break it up," Son-Gohan said, feeling like he was talking to himself in the mirror. "Maybe Kami could help." Trunks nodded. "Good idea, now lets break that up." "Yeah, OK." Son-Gohan went over to where the adults were. "Dad!" Son-Gokuu looked at Son-Gohan because he knew it was Son-Gohan. Vegitta looked at Son-Gohan because he was in Trunks's body. "I think Kami might be able to help us figure out what is going on." Vegitta just nodded, and crossed his arms. "Good idea Gohan," Son-Gokuu said, glad that Vegitta had shut up. "Oh, and Dad..." "Yeah Gohan?" Son-Gokuu looked at his son, wondering what he wanted. "Could you try to stop smiling like that? It's giving me the creeps." "Oh, ok." Son-Gokuu said. With that the four headed off towards Kami's lookout.
