First of all, I MUST thank the reviewers, and the people who have favorited this. You have made this writer very happy! Now enjoy this chapter, which is dedicated to Dr. Briefs & Bulma!
Disclaimer: I don't own Dragonball Z. But maybe I can get Bulma to invent something that will change that...
Dr. Briefs was hard at work one day, building up his latest invention. Pounding metal, fixing intricate wires, and typing up complicated jargon on the computers, he had quite a bit of work to do.
"Dad!" a voice called just outside the basement's door. "Are you in here?"
"Yes, Bulma dear." he replied. Bulma walked in, as her dad was trying to attach one of the gears to the bottom of the machine. "And just how do you think you're going to hold that heavy thing and attach those screws at the time?" she asked, hurrying to his side and holding up the large object for him.
"Ah, thank you Bulma." Briefs said cheerfully. He quickly tightened the screws and anything else needed, so Bulma wouldn't have to spend much time holding the heavy, metal part. With a few good twist of a wrench, the gear was firmly in place.
"So, what's this going to be?" Bulma asked, while stepping out from under the it.
Her father followed her, "Why," he said. "it's a robot with a washing machine built into it!"
"...A-a robot with... a washing machine?" Bulma said, obviously puzzled. Her dad was known for inventing strange things, but even this raised her brow.
"That's right!" Dr. Briefs said. "That way, you'll never have to wash or fold laundry again!" And without another word, the doc went right back to work.
As he was busy pound, pound, pounding away with his hammer, Bulma came to his side with tools in hand. "It's been a while, since we've worked on something together." she said. Her father nodded.
In just a few hammer hitting, wire fixing hours, a brand new machine was finally built. And in just half the time, thanks to the hard work of these two geniuses. "Well there you have it!" Dr. Briefs said, as him and only daughter stood and gazed proudly at the completed project.
"Shall we give it a try?" Bulma asked. Dr. Briefs nodded, then approached the newly built contraption. The machine powered up and came to life, after he pushed the power button on the back of the robot's neck.
Making a few good buzzing and humming sounds, the machine was working beautifully... until it went haywire and exploded.
"That's right..." Dr. Briefs said, while scratching his head. "I've been missing an important piece for the past few days, and still haven't found it."
"I just rememberred the reason I came down here in the first place." Bulma said, while pulling a metal cog out of her pocket. "I found Trunks playing with this in his crib..."
The two stared silently at the messy pile of scrap and metal, then burst into an uproar of laughter.
I hope that wasn't too confusing for you guys! I know nothing about building machines, just operating them. See ya next chapter!
