"Kokaru do I have to do this?!" complained Kakarot, as he meditated.

Kokaru walked over to her son. "Strength of the mind is just as important as strength of body."

"Yeah but I rather be out sparring. Plus you know how these teachings are against the..." he whined.

Kokaru frowned. "DO NOT QUESTION ME! King Vegeta is a simple-minded idiot. And," she paused,"… since you have worked hard you may go train."

As soon as the words "go train" came out her mouth, Kakarot was out the door.

"That boy. So much like his father," Kokaru thought happily. Just then Bardock barged in.

"Bad session with the King?" she teased.

"What do you think? Where is the brat?"

"You mean Kakarot."

"Whatever. Where is he?"

"Training."

"Tell him to get ready. He'll be leaving soon."

Kokaru clenched her fists. "You couldn't convince him? I don't want my son, our son to become a pawn of Vegeta!" she halfway sobbed.

Bardock put his hand on her shoulder. "It'll be ok, Kokaru. Kakarot is strong. Now go tell him to come in."

Kokaru nodded and went off to find her son.

"You know what Vegeta?"

"What Nappa?" Vegeta asked slightly annoyed.

"You need a mate. You're too moody." Nappa said, while praying that Prince Vegeta wouldn't blow his head off.

"Did my father tell you to ask that?"

Nappa nodded.

"Prince, the King also wanted me to tell you of your next assignment. The purging of Planet 54-907S."

Vegeta smirked, "Well what are you waiting for Nappa? Get ready!"

"Vegeta, I'm not joining you. Kakarot will be your partner."

AN: Sorry if the characters are a little OOC... I tried. Plus I don't think I'm that good of a writer anyway. I'm in pessimistic mood, today.

Well, what you think? Should I continue? Ideas? Suggestions? I know its a little early but should the parings be:
V/B and K(Goku)/CC
~or~
K(Goku)/B and maybe V/CC?

I know that last pairing is "weird" but I have read a couple good Goku/Bulma's and (one) Vegeta/ChiChi. One example is We Forgot About Bulma! by Nekoni.

Ja ne
