"Take this, Kakarot!" yelled Vegeta as he began punching at his rival as they sparred with each other. Goku was dodging the punches with ease much to the annoyance of the older man. The two of them had been going at it for around 20 minutes and Vegeta was yet to land a punch on the man. Goku had gotten in a few punches and was continuing to do so after dodging when both men heard a loud ring tone. Goku held up a hand and reached into his pocket. To his shock, the man had a cellphone. Since when did Kakarott of all people have a cellphone?
"What's up?" said Goku. He burst out laughing after listening to whoever was on the other end of the phone. "No way! Get outta town! She what? No way! NO. WAY. What did...mm-hm. Yeah. WHAT?! That's crazy!"
"Can you speed this up?" Vegeta called over to Goku as he crossed his arms and impatiently tapped his foot on the ground. "I don't have all day!"
He ignored his rival and was still on the cell phone. He was laughing on the cell phone as he talk to who ever. It couldn't be Chichi. Every time he saw her, she seemed to be in a bad mood. Then again maybe it had something to do with him or he was just constantly catching her on bad days. Goku continued to talk on the phone for 10 more minutes before Vegeta had no more patience with the man and snatched it phone.
"Hey!" The prince hung up the phone. "What'd you do that for?"
"We're supposed to be sparring!"
"We've been sparring for a few hours, Vegeta," He rolled his eyes. "I'm sure you can let me take a break to talk to my best friend. Surely you understand. Wait a minute, do you even a best friend? I bet it's Bulma, isn't it? No wait, Bulma's best friends with Chichi. Is it Future Trunks? No wait that doesn't quite count since he's your son. I bet it's Tien! You guys would get along really well. No he has one already. Yamcha? No...there's Puar there. What about...?"
"Don't have one, don't need one," He got into a fighting stance. "Now come on, you third class punk!"
"Wait a minute!" Goku gasped as he looked at the prince in surprise. "You don't have a best friend? At all?"
"No, I don't..."
"No wonder you're always so grouchy!" He put an arm around the shorter man's shoulder. "You don't have a best friend to tell all your secrets, to talk with about private stuff, and a bunch of other stuff! Do you even have a friend?"
"Hell no!"
"You really need to get some," Then he grinned at the man. "I know! We can be friends!"
"I'd rather eat your wife's nasty cooking!"
"Don't talk about my wife's cooking! She's a great cook...well expect when she's experimenting with food," said Goku genuinely insulted. "At least my wife's cooking is made by my wife! Bulma's cooking smells like sweaty balls and cheese! Mrs. Briefs is the one that cooks for you, not Mrs. Underwear!"
"Don't talk about out people's wives when your wife is a witch!"
"Chichi may can get a little mean, but at least the two of us don't fight 24/7 and we see each other majority of the day if nothing's going on. I'm not the one locking myself in a gravity room probably crying like a little baby because I'm a friendless loser and won't be able to beat Goku because he's awesome!"
"You...! You...! You third class idiot!"
"I may be a third class on Planet Vegeta, but I'm far more elite than you!" Goku shouted. "And there's a reason none of us call you a prince, you short thug! That's what we should start calling you, that or Sir Pointy Head." *
"WHAT!?" He screeched.
"I'm outta here," Goku took off. "Have fun playing by yourself, Prince Thug."
"GET BACK HERE, KAKAROTT, YOU...YOU..." He tried thinking of a good comeback but could think of nothing. Even if he could, the man was gone. He wasn't going to chase him down just to insult him. He'd find him later.
What Goku said to him pissed him off though nothing like that had happened before. Even when he was a kid, the prince didn't have friends. He was much too busy training and even when he wasn't, he sometimes saw another child his age and even then they didn't get along. They bored him as soon as they opened up their mouths and the longer they stayed, the more annoyed he grew. After Planet Vegeta had blown up, he rarely ever saw another kid his age. The only person around his age was Raditz and he was older than him by a few years. Like he would be friends with such a weak punk or a bald one in Nappa who was mainly just an ass kisser and his guardian.
"I don't need a best friend or any friend for that matter," mumbled the prince as he headed back home. "Stupid, Kakarott. Who does he think he is anyways? Calling me a loser. He's the loser with his stupid ugly sons with their stupid ugly haircuts. Stupid monkey brained moron!"
Vegeta continued to mumble all the way home and even then continued to mumble even as his son called out to him. "Hey father. Is Goku..."
"No that piece of crap isn't with me! He's off with his weak best friend!" said Vegeta. "I don't even know why he does that when he could be getting stronger."
"Oh so he's at the Kame House. I need to talk to him," Trunk was about to leave when his dad stopped him. "Huh?"
"Wait, boy. Who is Kakarott's best friend anyways?"
"It's Krillin," He gave his father a weird look.
"Ha!" Vegeta burst out laughing. "So he's friends with that bald loser! Ahahahaa! No wonder they're best friends. The idiot likes looking after weaklings and he's gotten attached to him. And ol' baldy worships him! How pathetic! AHAHAHAHAA!"
"Dad, are you stupid?" Vegeta stopped mid-laugh. "That's not what kind of friendship Goku and Krillin have. As a matter of fact, that's not even a friendship. You're just upset that you haven't anyone close to you like that."
"I am not," said Vegeta. "I don't need a so called friend to weigh me down!"
"Being friends can help you out a lot," said Trunks. "As a matter, that's how Goku turned into a super saiyan. That's how I turned into a super saiyan as a matter of fact."
"I didn't need a dumb friend to turn into a super saiyan," he said proudly. "So it was letting your emotions get the better of you. What a couple of punks!"
"I don't care if having friends makes me weak," Trunk frowned at his father, thinking of the first time he turned into a super saiyan. "At least I have them unlike you."
"What do you know!" Vegeta stormed off. The nerve that moron had to say that to his own father! He stormed off, nearly knocking over his wife.
"Watch where you're going!" She yelled at him.
"How about you watch where you're going!" Vegeta kept going even while Bulma yelled back at him. He didn't need a friend, darn it! Screw Kakarot and Trunks! "One's an low class idiot and the other's a mutt! They don't know anything!"
As he laying on the bed, he decided to watch watch TV. To his dismay, a couple of cliques** happened. All he saw were shows depicting people being the best of friends or practically bragging about how great friends they had or how happy they were that they were friends. It seemed to be happening on every television channel. It was like someone had heard his argument with his son and were teasing him. It was getting on his nerves. Even a freakin' wrestling show had a segment where two rivals, who teamed up, burst into song about how their rivalry was over and now they were going to build a new friendship since they made a great team up. Since when did wrestling become a fighting musical? He flipped through the channels until he got to a horror movie. Finally, something that didn't have a bit of friendship that would be rubbed into her face. Then it happened. The woman was running behind stage and ended up on stage. She ended up running into one of the microphone stands on the stage. Just when the killer was about to kill the young woman, she began singing "Why Can't We Be Friends" by War. Vegeta thought this was one of the dumbest ways to keep someone from killing someone, but it was amusing how she seemed to think it would work. The masked killer stopped and then, to Vegeta's surprise, the man began dancing and even singing, revealing that he had a pretty good voice.
"You have got to be kidding me!" He rolled his eyes at the pair. "That wouldn't work!"
The pair then began singing a few more songs together about friendship, the possibility of becoming friends, and the amazing benefits that came with being friends before ending on "We're all in this today" from that cheesy high school musical when the killer was suddenly shot in the chest, barely fazing the man. The camera turned to reveal a police officer who turned out to be the girl's father. The masked man turned quickly to the woman beside him and punched her before bring shot again. He fell over and the girl even started to crawl away when he was grabbed her leg.
"Why can't we be friends, huh?" He yelled. "This why you c***!"
"No, I really wanted to..."
Then Bulma came into the room to tell Vegeta that Goku was downstairs. What did that clown want now? Did he come back to apologize for what he said earlier? Vegeta went downstairs and found Goku wearing the stupidest t-shirt he had ever seen before. He was wearing a dark green t-shirt with the words "World's Best Team" with a picture of Krillin and Goku's heads in chibi form. Upon looking a bit closer, there was a chibi Vegeta grinning back at him.
"What do you want?"
"I came to apologize for what I said earlier," said Goku rubbing the back of his head. "I know it had to hurt you since you lost your's a long time ago, but..."
"Hold up. Lost what now?"
"Your best friend. What was his name? Nappa?"
Vegeta burst out laughing. "That bald idiot? No way was that idiot my friend. There's a reason I killed him. He was a weak idiot that needed to be dealt with. I told you Kakarot, I don't have friends and I don't need any. People and emotions just weigh you down."
"Man, you're heartless," He said shaking his head. "Did you even care about your own dad?"
"He was a weakling too!"
"Wow. You know I was going to ask you to go bowling with Krillin and I but forget it know. I don't want your negative vibes ruining our game. Have to run, Sir Pointy Head. "
"GOOD RIDDANCE! DON'T LET THE DOOR HIT YOU ON THE WAY OUT, SIR EATS-A-LOT!" He yelled after them.
"Don't you eat a lot as well?" asked Trunks as he carried his baby self into the living room.
"QUIET ORPHAN!" He yelled back at him as he went upstairs.
"But technically I have them since I'm in this time period and you're the one..."
"Shut up!" He slammed the room door.
*I find it pretty funny nobody cares about Vegeta's prince status. As a matter of fact, Chichi's a princess herself. Look it up, she is! Anyways the only person that brings it up other than him, Bulma in GT referencing how she's his queen since technically King Vegeta's dead thus that makes Vegeta the new king.
**It's a clique that whenever something like food or some other thing of interest comes up that the person in a show can't stop thinking of, it usually pops up on a random page they turn to or a tv show. Like for instance you're hungry, but on a strict diet. You turn on the tv and spot delicious food on every channel you turn on. That's what's happening to Vegeta. lol
