E we are again with DBZ and Ordinary Family! Don't own DBZ or anything else except for the school kids, Ms. Tammy, Mrs. Sophie, and Principal Bob. I noticed Mrs. Sophie was ACTUALLY Mrs. Shirley before, but I could of sworn I had her down as Mrs. Sophie...

Chapter 7;
Dodgeball Z
Monday morning. Sigh. More school for the Saiyan duo. First off, we go to Bardock's room, where he is waking up. He put the picture of Fasha in a frame on his nightstand, so that every morning he could see it and remember her. Little does Bardock know, when he wakes up for a second, it is Monday, and it's already 7:30. He opens his eyes to look at the picture where he sees a note.
It's Monday. GET UP!
-Yourself, again...
Bardock has a bad memory, so Fasha taught him that if she was ever away, to leave himself notes. Bardock stumbles into the kitchen to make lunches for himself and his son, when he sees Kakarot at the door of Raditz's room.
"Kakarot? What are you doin'?" Bardock asked
"Waditz..." Kakarot said sadly, because Raditz's door was closed. Bardock went over and opened the door and Kakarot quickly crawled inside and sat next to his big brother's bed. Bardock chuckled silently and continued his work. Kakarot saw that his brother was sleeping peacefully, so he managed to get himself onto the bed and laid next to him. After a little while, Bardock finally finished and went to wake Raditz up.
"RADITZ! Wake up!" Bardock knew that he had to yell to wake that kid up.
"Okay, father..." Raditz replied, still sleepy. He looked down next to his side to see his little brother. "Kakarot?"
"Waditz!" the little warrior sang as soon as Raditz saw him.
"C'mon. We have to go to school now. Grab Kakarot so we can drop him off." Bardock urged.
"Okay." Raditz agreed, picking up the baby. Kakarot leaned his head against Raditz chest and dozed off. They walked to Gohan's and knocked on door.
"I'm on the roof!" Gohan called. Raditz climbed up the ladder on the side of his house.
"Hello, Gohan." Raditz said, bowing.
"Hello, Ray. I was just watching the sun rise." Gohan explained. Raditz sat Kakarot next to the man's side and started to walk off when Kakarot started grabbed his leg. Raditz bent down and pried
the little boy's hand from his shoe. "I'll be back later Goku."
"Waditz..." Kakarot said sadly.
"I promise I'll come back. We always do." Raditz said, smiling.
"Waditz! Fada! I! (like he's saying bye)" Kakarot smiled and waved. Raditz climbed down the ladder and he and Bardock ran off to school.
In the teacher's lounge...
"Hello." Said a male substitute teacher to Mrs. Sophie.
"Oh, hello. You must the sub for Ms. Tammy."
"Yeah. Is this school all women teachers?" the man asked.
"All except for the gym teacher and the principal." she said, smiling.
"Well, I'm Mr. Tucker. Nice to meet you, Mrs..."
"Mrs. Sophie."
"Hey, Sophie." Bardock said as he, once again, made his entrance. "Hello. Who are you?"
"Mr. Tucker. I'm Ms. Tammy's sub."
"Well, my son should be happy to hear that!"
"Who's your son?" Mr. Tucker asked.
"Ray Saiyan."
"Okay." the bell rings, "Well, we all better get out of here!" Tucker said, as he picked up his suitcase and headed off to Ms. Tammy's room.
In Ms. Tammy's room...
"Hello, everybody. I'm the substitute for Ms. Tammy. I'm Mr. Tucker." he introduced. The whole class let out a sigh of relief. "I take it she's a bad teacher..." Everyone nodded their head. "Well, she's going to be out for 3 months, so I will be here for a while."
"Ray, you're a hero!" Ryan whispered to Raditz.
"Really?" The young Saiyan asked, confused.
"Yeah! Mr. Tucker is the best sub EVER! He lets us do ANYTHING! Even talk! He just sits at his laptop!"
"Cool." Raditz said, leaning back on his chair. Ryan pulled out a gameboy and began to play Pokemon. "What's that thing?"
"A gameboy advance. It's really fun!"
"Hm..." Raditz grunted in thought. The class seemed long because Raditz had absolutely nothing to do, so he finally decided to draw. Ryan put up his GBA after a little while.
"What's that?" Ryan asked in curiosity.
"Baby Brother." Raditz said without looking up.
"Wow. You're a great artist, Ray!" Ryan exclaimed.
"Thanks." Raditz replied, putting the finishing details on the picture of Kakarot. Mr. Tucker was taking a break, and was walking around and spotted Raditz's little work of art.
"Wow. You're good!" Mr. Tucker complimented. "Is your name Ray by any chance?"
"Yes sir. Why do you ask?" Raditz was confused.
"That baby looks a lot like your dad. I saw him in the teacher's lounge this morning." Mr. Tucker said, smiling.
"Oh." Raditz understood now, "This is my baby brother, though, actually."
"Oh. Okay." Mr. Tucker turned and left.
In the gym...
Any second now...Any second now... Bardock thought, waiting for Principal Bob to come over the loud speaker and say "Ray is in the office." Bardock just sat there, when he was a newspaper on his desk He picked it up and began to read it, but didn't care too much for it. Then, he got to the puzzles and comics section. First, he read Charlie Brown, and Garfield and stuff, then he picked up a pen and did the cross word puzzle. Raditz never did get called to the office, and Bardock finished his puzzle as soon as the bell rang.
"Hello Father." Raditz said as he approached Bardock, who was checking his answers. "What's that thing?"
"A cross word puzzle. I got bored, and saw this on my desk."
"Okay. Are we doing what we did last time?"
"Nope. I saw something on TV last night while you were asleep that we're gonna play."
"What would that be, father?"
"Dodgeball!"
"Sounds fun, but don't you remember? I was awake. You let me watch that movie with you."
"You were?"
"Yup." Raditz clarified as the other children came marching in.
"Hey, guys. Today, we're playin dodgeball!" Bardock announced.
"Really! Awesome!" the whole class seemed overjoyed in this.
"So you've played it before?" The Saiyan asked.
"It was the only fun part of gym last year. But our teams were always uneven because the teacher never played with us..." Felice explained.
"Well, today's your lucky day." Bardock replied. The two team captains were Bardock and Felice. Here's how the teams were chosen, Bardock choosing first.
Bardock- Celsius (the Nerd boy)
Felice- Fasha
Bardock-Ryan
Felice-Raditz
Team One, Bardock, Celsius, Ryan. Team Two, Felice, Fasha and Raditz. (Poor Raditz ;;)
"Father, why didn't you choose me! I'm stuck on the girls team!" Raditz exclaimed in frustration.
"It's not fair to have BOTH Saiyans on one team." Bardock explained. "Ready, set, GO!" All of the class ran to the balls, which there were 3 of. Felice got one, as did Bardock and Raditz. Felice held hers, waiting for an opening, while Bardock threw his at Raditz. Raditz was busy aiming at his father and just barley dodged. While Bardock wasn't looking, Felice hit him. Since Bardock was gone, Raditz hit Celsius, who had been hiding behind him. Ryan aimed at Fasha, but she was very fast, so she dodged. Raditz managed to get another ball and hit Ryan.
"We beat you father!" Raditz bragged. There was still about 30 minutes left in class, so they played again. Bardock's eyes never left the dodgeballs this time, and he managed to get Fasha and Felice out, but didn't hit them too hard. Raditz was all alone on the battle field, when Celsius threw a ball at him, but he catches it. Felice comes back into the game and grabs a ball that was on the floor, and gets Celsius out. Then, Ryan throws one at Felice and it hits. Raditz manages to get Ryan out, and it's a showdown between father and son. Bardock held the ball in his left hand (picture the scene where he faces Frieza and charges up his blast, except put a dodgeball in there!) While Raditz has his resting on his side. Bardock launches his assault, while Raditz throws his to knock it off course. Bardock picks up another, as does Raditz. They throw at the same time, but Bardock put a curve on his this time, so it misses Raditz's and heads straight for his face, while Raditz is doing the same. The balls each hit their target AT THE SAME TIME! Whoever stands up first and hits their opponent first wins it all! But, each threw with such force, they are both sore. Then, the bell rings and they get up. Food can make even a nearly DEAD Saiyan move!
Lunch Break!
Nothing much to say about math today. Raditz just took another nap...
At Gohan's house...
Gohan and Kakarot are in the middle of the floor, eating lunch, which is Ramen noodles,when Raditz knocks on the door.
"Come in." Gohan answers. Raditz approaches.
"Thank you for taking care of Baby Brother." Raditz says.
"It's no trouble. Really!" Gohan replies modestly. Raditz leaves with Kakarot over his shoulder.
Back at the Saiyan home...
"Fada!" Kakarot calls as they come in. Bardock smiles. Then, there's a knock on the door.
"Who could that be?" Bardock asks. Raditz shrugs, as Bardock goes over too see. Felice is there, in a girl scouts costume.
"Felice?"
"Mr. Bardock? You live all the way out here?" She says.
"Yeah. What are you doing?" He asks, confused.
"I'm here selling cookies for the girl scouts. All profits go to the Cancer Research Institute." Felice explains. He remembers seeing girl scouts on TV before.
"You don't have to try to suck up to me."
"Thank GOD! I'm tired of having to talk like that just to sell these cookies!" she says in a normal tone of voice.
"What prize are you trying to get?" he asks.
"A pogo stick..." she replies in a day-dreaming kind of voice.
"How many boxes do you have to sell?"
"15 more."
"Are they any good?" he asks as his stomach growls.
"Actually, yeah."
"How much?"
"5 bucks a box." she says, blowing a bubble from some bubble gum.
"Here ya go." he gives her 75 zeni.
"WOW! Thank you Mr. Bardock!" she exclaims in gratitude.
"Would you please stop callin' me mister?" he begs.
"Okay, Bardock!" she runs off, leaving the brown paper sack of cookies with him. Bardock reaches into one of the boxes and tries a cookie.
"Whoa." He exclaims as he swallows.
Meanwhile Raditz and Kakarot are off in the living room, watching Invader Zim (I love that show!) when Bardock walks in, still eating his box of cookies.
"Can I have some, father?" Raditz asks. Bardock throws a box to him. "Whoa! These are good!" Kakarot starts drooling, so Raditz hands him one. The youngest begins to nibble on the cookie, saliva going everywhere. Later, after Bardock, Raditz and Kakarot finish off the wonderfully good cookies, they realize they have no more food, so have to go to Ingles. They pick up some TV dinners, Raditz of course gets fish. After supper, they all go to bed, but Kakarot finds his way to Raditz's bed again, and sleeps there.
