In the MI, everyone is getting ready to head to space. Everyone and everything is on the move. Rico is packing his stuff while Goku is staring quizzically as usual.
"Goku get packing, we ship out in five!" yelled Rico as he packed up some food.
"I don't know what to pack Rico. What are these things were fighting again?"
"Bugs, arachnids."
"Does he even remember how to fire a gun Rico?" Dizzy butted in.
"Dizzy don't start. He'll be fine out there."
"For your sake I hope so," she said frowning angrily at Goku, who only stared quizzically at her. Vegeta walked into room with a wide grin on his face. Goku grins as well, knowing what it meant.
"We're finally going to get some action Kakarotto. I was afraid just sitting here was going to make us soft."
"You said it Vegeta, I'm just so excited!" Goku said jumping up.
Rico and Diz shake their heads in bewilderment. If it was one thing they had learned about Goku was that he enjoyed fighting. They had no idea of the upcoming battle ahead. The bugs were clearly a ruthless race, a force to be reckoned with. The chances of any of them coming back were slim to none.
"Any idea where we are going?" asked Goku happily.
"Some planet named Klendathu, the home world. The whole shebang is there," explained Vegeta laughing.
"Well then I guess you and I will have more fun then I thought we would, ha ha," so conversed the two saiyajin.
"You do realize that these things are ruthless, there's a slim chance that-"
"Hush, you're spoiling it," Vegeta said interrupting him.
"Why don't you hush Vegeta, it isn't his fault your very eager to die out there!" yelled Dizzy. Vegeta only grinned at the woman as he shook his head.
"The bugs are the ones going to die woman, you can stay home while Kakarotto and I will do the job for you. Besides, you'll be able to live to spend time with your boyfriend here."
Rico jumped back as he waved his hands. Dizzy only smirked as Rico tried to explain himself.
"Hey wait minute Vegeta, she's not my girlfriend!"
"Right, you ready Kakarotto?" asked Vegeta as he head toward the door.
"Yep, lets do it."
The two sayajin left, leaving Rico and Dizzy in the room.
"So how bout Rico?" Dizzy asked smiling.
"If you mean shipping off I'm ready to go," said Rico as he picked up his bag. As they walked outside, they could see everyone getting into the ships and jetting off into space. Rico and the gang walked up to the starship and awaited seating from the Corporal. He yelled over the engines as he assigned everyone their seats.
"Perkins, Kensington seats A-10! Vegeta, Higgins, seats B-10! Flores and-" he hesistated. Dizzy smiled as she expected Rico's named to be called out. To seat beside Rico on their first trip to outer space was going to happen in mere moments. She looked over at Rico and examined him. Once they sat together, she would hold his hand all the way through the trip. She listened with confidence as her partner's name was about to be called out.
"Goku! Seats C-13!"
Her hopes dried as she heard his name. She walked out of line and ran to the Corporal to appeal the matter.
"Corporal please, you cannot pair me with him! Please, someone else will do! Anybody but Goku!" she pleaded.
"Sorry private, but orders are orders! Now get in the ship like a good trooper!"
The Corporal walked away and continued to yell while Goku happily walked up to Dizzy and smiled. Dizzy fumed as she sensed his approach.
"Hey we're partners for the trip Diz! Isn't that great?!" Goku said excitedly. Dizzy ignored Goku as she walked inside muttering curses under her breath as she walked inside. Goku followed her inside and sat down beside her. Dizzy looked the other way, trying not to look at Goku as he sat.
"Are you excited Dizzy?"
"Don't talk to me," she said in a harsh low whisper.
"Okay, I'll wait for you to calm down."
"I'll be calm only when you are away from me for good!"
The Corporal walked inside and shut the door behind him. He addressed the troopers on the ship as it prepared for takeoff. He yelled across the room as the troopers listened.
"Alright you apes, we're going to Klendathu first to eliminate the bugs home planet! Intel figures that once we wipe it clean off the map, the rest of the area will be a synch to occupy! You sissies remember your training out there, and maybe you'll live to see another day! Get me!"
"We get you sir!" they all yelled in unison. There was a loud rumble as the ship lifted itself off the ground. Dizzy looked around and saw that Goku was enjoying himself. Rico rubbed his hands nervously while Vegeta only sat there with his arms folded and his eyes closed, as if he were meditating. Dizzy looked outside and saw the ground from above. So small looked the bases from above, like little blocks of Lego's they were. She saw another starship beside theirs. The federation weren't kitting when they said invasion. Dizzy smiled to herself. She was finally going to see some action, some real action. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw a little hatch opening by itself. The hatch to where all the luggage was stored opened fully, and out popped the heads of two small boys, like the ones she saw in the vents a month earlier. The spiked haired waved as he saw a shocked Dizzy in the window. They looked down and saw the land far below. After seeing this, they closed the hatch to wait out the rest of the journey. Dizzy wanted to get up and yell for the Corporal, but they were going at high speeds toward space. If she got up she'd be thrown back by the power of the takeoff. She banged her fist angrily on the seat in front of her, earning a yell from another trooper.
"Hey what's your problem, I'm trying to sleep here!"
"Sorry," she replied remorsefully. As if things weren't bad enough, she now had those two little shits to deal with in space. She suddenly wanted to be back down on earth, away from Goku, away from those children, away from the hell Goku has been putting her though. Goku smiled at her as he looked over to her.
"Help me," she said to herself utterly annoyed.
