Voices: Jesse –Jugular- (Mirai)
Chapter 7
Mirai woke up to the sound of his chibi crying, the poor kid had such a high fever, it was driving Mirai insane. Mirai groaned and got up, it was 5 am, what sort of inhuman demon wakes people up at 5 am!? THE WORLD IS UNJUST!!!!
He crawled out of bed and wandered down the hall later followed by an angry Vegeta. "It's not right," he said, "a man should be able to sleep without any interruption."
"You're usually up this early anyway," said Mirai, "what are you complaining about?"
"Shut up," he grumbled, "it's your fault I'm up this early."
"God, I just want to put the kid out of my misery," said Mirai cynically.
"You do that I will beat the shit outa you," said Vegeta aggressively.
"Why?"
"Because your mother will be pissed and will probably tell me to," he responded. "Go back to bed it's too early for you to be up and walking around."
"I can't sleep anymore."
"You look half dead."
"Thanks, your looking great yourself," said Mirai sarcastically.
"Get back to bed." Mirai sighed and went back to bed; there was no way he was getting back to sleep. He walked over and opened a window. Good god, came Jesse's voice, for 5 am it's fucking hot! (Well) thought Mirai (I've never heard you talk like that before Jesse.)
Shut up, it's hot, why are you opening a window?
(To hang myself by an extension cord).
Not funny
(I disagree).
Your father told you to go to bed not kill yourself
(He also threatened to beat the shit outa me if you recall)
-I recall that- came Jugulars voice –and I say you make him pay dearly-
Oh you would
-What the hell is that suppose to mean Miss Goody-two-shoes-
Your mind is so bent on murder someone offered to go to the mall with you and you were disappointed to find no one being flogged to death.
-Your so innocent someone said dick and you thought they were talking about a whale-
Your so fat the world shakes when you go out to get your mail
-Your so ugly your mom threw bricks threw the hospital widows you were born in-
Your so dumb, when the flight attendant told you to get on the plane you sat on the wing
-Your so stupid you get lost when you blink-
Your so stupid you tried to drowned a fish
-Your so stupid you tried to burn an ice cube-
You looked in the mirror and yelled mama mama there's a robber in the house!
-You bought a solar powered flashlight-
You blind folded a blind man
-You locked yourself in the bathroom and peed your pants-
You don't know how to dial 911
(You're both so stupid you sit on the TV and watch the couch)
Both voices went silent. Mirai was getting a headache from the bickering personalities so snuck downstairs to get a Tylenol. He went back upstairs and stared at the ceiling playing connect the dots with those flaky ball things that hurt when the fall off the ceiling and land in your eye. He got up and looked at his clock, only 10 minutes had passed by.
He couldn't go downstairs; Vegeta would just send him back up and probably lock the door on him. He remembered back to the bathroom joke Jugular had told. He smiled when he remembered another.
He and Vegeta had gotten into a fight the other day and Mirai had told Vegeta he was so stupid he got locked up in the grocery store and starved to death, needless to say Vegeta did not think that funny. What happened next will remain anonymous (just think back to the time he died Vegeta's hair pink in Malkavian Saiyan that shit was funny!).
Mirai got up and decided that he was to hot to sleep, he would have closed the window if the air conditioner wasn't broken down.
He wondered back downstairs and, as he predicted, Vegeta made him go back up and locked the door this time saying that he wasn't going to tolerate this disobedience thing this morning. It was obvious the proud saiyan was in a bad mood due to the heat. Mirai laid back down on the bed and found himself dozing to sleep. An hour later he woke up to the sound of his door unlocking. He got up and made his way down the hall behind his father.
"You were mumbling in your sleep," he said.
"Voices are at it again," Mirai replied.
"You sounded like you were arguing with someone."
"Jesse and Jugular don't get along well," he responded, "they tend to get into these verbal fights. But I did learn a very interesting 'your so stupid' joke!"
"As interesting as that is, we have training to do," said Vegeta. Mirai shook his head, that man could be dying, suffering from dementia, and have two broken legs and he would still be training. The training session was not so bad today. Due to Mirai being so hot and Vegeta being so short tempered, he only made Mirai train in the morning.
Mirai walked outside in his flip flops, a pair of baggy long tripp shorts, and a baggy black shirt that said HATCHET RUNNER across it in red letters with a hatchet man on it. He sat on the porch with his sick chibi who was getting some fresh air and drinking water.
The sick 8 year old looked miserable. They both watched the sprinklers on the lawn go back and forth spitting out water. "You know," said chibi, "that water looks really good right now."
"Yeah," said Mirai, "I know what you mean." He thought about it for a moment then told his chibi to follow him. The sick child got up from his seat and followed Mirai over to the sprinklers.
"What are you doing," asked chibi.
"I'm going to enjoy the cold water, what are you doing?" Chibi looked at him like he was nuts at first but decided that the cold water might be just what he needed.
"Watch this," said chibi. He backed up a few paces then ran over and jumped through the water over the sprinkler. He did a small slide and landed on the cold wet grass. Mirai stood where his chibi was and ran and jumped over the sprinkler and did a tumble and roll on the ground landing next to chibi. (It's one of those sprinklers that sprays the water strait up and slowly goes back and forth if you haven't figured it out0.
Chibi got up in an excited sort of way and picked up one of the sprinklers and moved it next to the others so the two where moving in unison long side to long side.
Mirai got up and took the hose and sprayed down the grass on the other side of the two sprinklers. They both stood on the drier side and chibi ran and jumped over the two sprinklers and slid across the grass totally ruining it.
Mirai laughed and did the same thing.
Bulma, meanwhile, was watching the two boys wondering what they were doing. Her first instinct was to yell at them for tearing up the yard and using the sprinkler system as a play thing. She also wanted to tell them that they should know better and tell Mirai he was acting really irresponsible. If it wasn't so damn hot out and the air conditioner worked, she probably would have, but seeing as how things were the way they were, she decided against it and went out to join them.
"No, no, no," she said to her sons, "this is how you do it." She ran and jumped over the sprinklers and landed on her feet sliding across the grass never falling down. The two boys clapped enthusiastically. Chibi tried it but ended up landing on his butt. Mirai, who really didn't care much to play copy cat, ran, jumped, and splashed the giant puddle forming next to the sprinklers. He splashed water and mud all over the other two.
They just laughed and kicked water and mud at him.
Bulma looked at her now filthy and expensive watch. "I should go shower and get lunch started, you boys need to get cleaned up to before lunch is finished." She turned around and left.
Chibi ran inside to take a bath feeling so much better, even though his throat was still soar, he didn't feel as sick as he did before. Much like Mirai, he hated the feeling of being dirty; he was one of those kids who would willingly get into the tub without a fight.
Mirai was about to follow him when he saw Vegeta standing outside with an amused look on his face.
"Had it been any other day," he said, "I would have been pissed about this mess you made, but seeing as how it's hot, your mother isn't bitching, and that brat seems to be feeling better, I won't say anything to you."
"Should have joined us," Mirai said, "it was a nice relief to the heat."
Vegeta scoffed. He did not think playing around in the mud was acceptable and he sure as hell wasn't going to play around in it himself. "No" was his only response. Mirai just shrugged and went inside to take a shower. The cold water felt good. He dressed in a pair of pajama bottoms and made his way down stairs with a clean pair of black flip flops he ate lunch and went upstairs and slept the day away.
………………………………………………………………………………………………
Gohan woke up, today was the day he was suppose to teach Videl how to fly. It was hot, freakishly hot. The kind of hot that would melt the sun. The kind of hot that would kill you for walking outside. The kind of hot that boiled fish. The kind of hot that melts your flesh off. The kind of hot that puts heat to shame! IT WAS HOT!!!
He dressed in a pair of shorts and a white shirt. He, closely followed by Goten, decided to train a bit in the crazy heat before she got there. "Hey Goten," he said, "want to learn how to fly? I'm going to be teaching Videl so why not you while I'm at it?" Goten turned to his mom with a pleading look. Chichi agreed as long as he didn't get in the way of Gohan's training. Goten brightened up and ran after Gohan.
They trained away the morning and sweated buckets, probably literally, until Videl made it. She was in a swim suite and a straw hat. Gohan couldn't help but notice just how hot she looked. She wore a white two piece that was still modest, her black long hair was up in a high pony tail. Gohan got the picture of Videl with short hair, man she would look sexy with short hair.
He shook his head, what was he thinking!? They were just friends! "So," he said, "are you ready to start? You should first learn to focus energy." He showed her his energy and told her how. She took up the whole morning trying to make it work. Chichi made lunch and called Videl, Gohan, and Goten.
The three arrived at the table famished, and hot. Did I already mention how hot it was?
"Yes," said Chichi to the writer, "and it's getting irritating!"
"Sorry," I said.
"So," said Chichi, "I hear you're the daughter of Hercule Satan."
"Yeah," she said blushing, "we live pretty well."
"I bet, how many rooms do you have in your house anyway? I have seen pictures but never actually saw it up close."
"Oh, I don't know, about, 60," said Videl simply. Chichi jumped up and slammed her hands on the table.
"60!!!! GOHAN, YOUR GOING TO MARRY THIS GIRL?!!" Gohan spit his rice out all over his brother.
"MARRY??? WHAT?? NO WE ARE JUST FRIENDS!!" Videl blushed a little, she did think Gohan was cute, but just dating him was hard to believe. A month ago she would have flipped out if anyone even associated her and Gohan and marriage.
After lunch she continued trying to make the orb from in her hand. It only took another hour before it finally did. She brightened up and jumped to her feet.
"Gohan, Gohan," she called, "I did it! I made it work!" Gohan smiled. She looked at him and smiled. He was shocked at how fast she learned it, she was a truly exceptional girl.
"Wow, Videl, I'm impressed. It must be because of your amazing fighting talent. Hey, seeing as how we managed to eat up most of the day, how about you come back tomorrow so we can train for the tournament and I can teach you how to fly and you can practice summoning up your ki." Videl just nodded. "Oh and Videl, I think you should cut your hair," he said. He wanted to slap himself.
"You like girls with short hair, Gohan," asked Videl blushing.
"Oh no," he said trying to cover himself, "I just think it would be a good idea so your opponent can pull it." Videl looked insulted but turned around left. She actually thought he might feel something for her! That insensitive jerk was so clueless! What was his problem!? She stormed to her ship infuriated and flew off. Gohan gave a sigh of relief, what an aggressive girl she was, he was mentally tired and decided to take a rest the rest of the day.
The next morning, Videl came by earlier. Gohan was not expecting it. A short haired Videl jumped out of her ship ready to go to work. "Who is the new girl," asked Goten.
Gohan ignored her and walked over to Videl, he was right, she was hot in short hair. He was speechless. "Well," said Videl, "you gonna teach me to fly or stand there and blush?" Gohan felt his cheeks go from a light pink to red. He only nodded and walked over to the place they were training the morning before.
"Ok," he said a little nervous, "lets see how fast you can form an energy ball first." Videl did it in seconds. Gohan was impressed further, she had been practicing. "Okay now Goten Videl you two ready?" They both nodded with determination. "Alright. First feel that energy just like you did when you were forming it only this time push it to your feet." Goten and Videl did as they were told.
Next thing Goten knew, he was levitating in the air. Goten opened his eyes and giggled. "Gohan, look! I'm doing it!" He laughed as he flew across the yard a little shakily. Gohan smiled and ran after his brother, ready to catch him just in case he fell out of the sky. Videl was growing frustrated, first he couldn't keep his eyes off her and now he was completely ignoring her, what was his problem?
"Gohan," she shouted, "come on I haven't levitated yet! He will be fine don't worry!" Gohan snapped back. He rushed over to her and told her what to do again. Videl stood with her eyes shut, trying to relax, but it was a little hard sense Gohan was eyeing her again. She felt the wind blowing around her, she heard the trees whispering in the wind, she sensed the grass dancing wildly, she was at peace, then she felt herself being lifted from the ground from her feet. She opened her eyes in shock, she was five inches in the air, it was the most amazing feeling she had ever had. It was like air pushing her up and her insides were light as feathers.
Gohan smiled at Videl. "You did it," he said, "your floating! Now try and move around the yard like Goten was." Videl did, she was not as shaky as Goten had been, she was graceful and a little faster. Gohan couldn't help but stair, she was a brilliant girl. He felt like his heart was flying, just like Videl, and he felt a strange flutter in his belly. What was this feeling?
"Gohan," said Goten.
"Earth to Gohan," said Videl. Gohan snapped back to reality. "I'm headed home to get ready for the tournament. See you then." She and Gohan waved goodbye and she took off into the sky in her jet plane. She didn't want to attract any unwanted attention from the press or the military.
Gohan, sighed, when she left, so did the strange feeling. He actually regretted her leaving. He turned to his brother and smiled. "You ready to continue?" Goten laughed and said he was ready.

Mirai woke up to the sound of some annoying bird making noises outside of his window. He threw his shoe out the window and the bird had finally shut up. Just as he fell back to sleep his cell phone going off. He had received a text message. He opened it up to read the message, it was from Jay.
Did u hear bout the tournament?
Jay
Mirai's response was:
Yeah, im gonna enter this year
Mirai
Her response seconds later was:

Jay
He is just being a drama king
mirai
yeah he does that sometimes. see you in a few days
Jay
He got up, the day was not nearly as hot as yesterday, he was thankful for that. He looked at the clock, 7 am. He managed to sleep through his alarm clock. Chibi's fever was gone and he wasn't so miserable he couldn't get any sleep and he wasn't throwing up and crying out in misery. Mirai got up and went downstairs to see no one was down there. He walked down the hall and ran into chibi and Vegeta.
"Hey guess what," said chibi, running down the corridor followed by a very unhappy Vegeta.
"What," he asked, not really all that interested.
"I'm gonna enter the tournament. Gohan called yesterday and said he was going to so I want to and dad is gonna make me stronger then Goten."
"You already are," he said almost moody. This didn't seem to affect the excited kid.
"Yeah I know but I'm gonna get more stronger."
"Well good luck with that chibi." Chibi laughed and ran ahead outside.
"What's eating you," asked Mirai.
"I told that kid if he could hit me I would take him to the park, well turns out that kid is a lot quicker then I gave him credit."
"Ah," said Mirai, "so you lost to a kid." He said it almost nastily. He may have had a better nights sleep but he was in a bad mood.
"Who shoved your face in a blender this morning?"
"Some annoying bird that has taken residence outside my window this morning. Bastard wont shut up! Now if you will excuse me I have to go fetch my shoe from outside." He walked by quickly, not really wanting to talk to anyone. When he went out back and grabbed his shoe, the bird began to make more noises. Mirai looked up, he decided to call animal control if it wasn't gone this afternoon. He went to the GR and decided to train alone. He trained all morning then left for breakfast after taking a shower.
When he came out of the bathroom, he heard the bird still singing. He looked at the clock, 3 pm, the bird was still going. He went down stairs and made lunch and joined Vegeta and chibi who had just gotten back.
Mirai called animal control on his phone saying there was a bird outside his window disturbing him.
"That bird still here," asked Vegeta after he swallowed the last bit of food he shoveled into his mouth.
"Yes," said Mirai unpleasantly, "and it's still making noise. Why don't we call some one to fix the air conditioner anyway?"
"Your grandfather wants to fix it. The Doctor doesn't want to bother anyone about it and wishes to take care of it himself."
"At least it's not as hot as it was yesterday," said chibi with a mouth full of food. Vegeta hit the child up side the head and told him not to talk with his mouth full of food. Chibi rubbed his head and grumbled a bit. Vegeta gave him a death glare and chibi fell silent.
"Well, I'm out of hear, that bird is going to drive me crazy," said Mirai. He got up and went out the door in hopes Vegeta wouldn't stop him and tell him he was going to train with him for a bit. It wasn't that he didn't like training, it was just Mirai could here the bird from the GR. Of course, Mirai isn't all that lucky, and Vegeta is probably psychic and, as they say, misery loves company.
"Hold up," said Vegeta. Mirai felt his heart sink. He turned around slowly. "Your going to train with me after I am done eating." Mirai nodded and went outside. The bird was chirping louder then ever. Doesn't he ever run out of breath? He sat outside thinking evil thoughts about killing the bird, plucking its feathers out, skinning it, stuffing it, and sending it through a garbage disposal. He smiled at the thought of sending it through the garbage disposal until Vegeta interrupted his thoughts.
"Wake up kid," he said, "your burning daylight!" Mirai got up and followed Vegeta. Vegeta was in a much better mood, which meant the training session was almost unbearable and extremely hard on poor Mirai. Somewhere along the line Vegeta had grow much stronger then Mirai, maybe it was because Mirai tend to be a bit lazy and Vegeta was self disciplined to the extreme.
Mirai had no idea what it was but he didn't much care to find out. He was afraid that if he asked he would get an answer and a lecture. He didn't really care to be lectured on how a 'true saiyan warrior blah, blah, blah'. Went it was over, Mirai felt ready to pass out and Vegeta was still going on his own. He walked out acting cool as if he wasn't worn out, but once he got into his room, he collapsed on the floor with exhaustion
He heard a knock on the door, he opened and saw it was animal control.
"Hey that bird in your window, yeah, we can't get do anything about it."
"WHAT!?"
"It's a mocking bird, we can't do anything with it, and it's an endangered species, just enjoy the companion nature has given to you."
"Enjoy this! I'm not paying you! GET THE HELL OUT OF MY ROOM!!! You said you could get rid of any pest, you lied!" Mirai slammed the door and stormed off to his bathroom. He took a shower and then collapsed on his bed. He couldn't sleep, the bird would not let him. He got up and walked into the hall to the room across the way. It was quiet there so he opened the door and crashed in there.
Vegeta walked down the hall to his bedroom when he saw the door to his old room was open. He looked in and saw Mirai collapsed in the bed Vegeta use to sleep in. Vegeta looked into Mirai's room across the hall and saw the annoying bird still there, Vegeta would have to do something about that bird, obviously animal control didn't.
…………………………………………………………………………………..
Next chapter: Vegeta and Mirai kill and endangered speices!
I took this idea from a movie, I can't recall what it was called.
