Chapter 36 part 1 : Caulifla and Vegito Family trip
I don't own Dragon ball Super
Vegito the new warrior of universe six
Planet Sadala
The sun had been up for a few hours now, as everyone in the house rested peacefully, comfortable and warm. Inside the Saiyan couple's room, they were cuddled against one another, each welcoming the warmth from the other silently in their sleep.
A few minutes went by, and Caulifla began to stir, her eyelids heavy and the sides of her eyes slightly crusted, as she wiped at her eyes before turning over onto her backside, her head laying on the soft, silky pillow as she stared up at the ceiling above.
"It's gotta be afternoon already," Caulifla said while yawning, seeing so much light filter into their room.
Though if it had reached into the afternoon, Vegito Jr. would undoubtedly be awake and crying, so Caulifla deduced it was still morning time.
As Caulifla started to get her wits about her, she sat up to see Vegito still dozing, his hands placed on the pillow his head rested upon. Caulifla smiled at the sight but knew he had to get up if anything would be done today. She gently grasped his shoulder and gave him a couple shakes, as he grumbled a little bit before turning over and opening his eyes to the sight of Caulifla still in her pajamas. "Hey," Vegito greeted her.
"Good morning sleepy head. Time to get ready for the day," Caulifla softly replied, pecking him with a kiss on the cheek as she made her way over to the wardrobe to pick out a set of gi for herself, slipping into it in a matter of seconds.
"I'm heading to the store to buy some new clothes for the trip. Remember, the planet that we're going to has freezing weather," Caulifla said with turning around as she slipped on her gi top and strode over to the door.
"I'll watch him, don't worry," Vegito said, knowing Caulifla would understand what he meant.
Turning around with a small smile, she nodded at him and went out the door and in a matter of mere moments, the house was as silent as the dead of night.
Stretching his body out in the bed with a mighty yawn, he put the slippers on that were on his side of the bed and went to grab Vegito Jr. for breakfast. He scooped his son out of the cradle, as the Junior of the two opened his eyes, with Vegito smirking slightly, as they finally made it into the kitchen with a bottle of milk already prepared.
"Now open wide and say dad," Vegito commanded with a playful tone.
"Momma," Vegito Jr. said back while just staring at his father, blank-faced.
"I swear Cali, you ruined him," Vegito grumbled, his expression a mix of embarrassment and despair.
Meanwhile, Caulifla was making her rounds at the mall after not finding much at the regular store. As she mindlessly passed by the store windows with items such as clothes, shoes, candies and other foods and gear, she finally found what she was looking for.
A few minutes later, she exited the store with a couple of bags of sweaters and coats for Vegito and Vegito Jr.
"This should do for those two," Caulifla said aloud as she scanned the nearby outlets. "Now how about something more for me."
It didn't take Caulifla long to find some clothes to her liking, taking them to the store's register and checking out, with a couple of extra bags hanging on her arms as she exited the shopping center and headed on her way home. The only thing she wasn't able to obtain was a new gi for Vegito, but the floor assistant took the measurements Caulifla wrote down for Vegito to begin designing it right away.
Back at the house, however, Vegito was less successful in his pursuits.
"I seriously don't know what it might take for him to stop saying mom. I don't know why but it's driving me nuts," Vegito thought, his eyes closed and tapping his left foot against the floor as his son just stared on from the chair he was propped up in.
"Wait, maybe this could work."
Vegito turned around and opened the drawer behind him where he found his ticket: a chocolate bar. Peeling the wrapping back, he held it out to his son, who just stared at the dark candy curiously.
"Hey, say dad, and I'll give you a piece of chocolate," Vegito instructed him, breaking a piece off and flipping it into his mouth.
"Mom," Vegito Jr. said.
"C'mon. Say, dad," Vegito tried saying it again, keeping the chocolate away.
It took a minute but instead of speaking, Vegito Jr. started crying.
"Oh, fine. You can have it," Vegito said tersely as he handed over the candy.
His son was delighted, waving it around until it splatted onto the floor, the crumbs flying everywhere from the broken bits.
"Shit!" Vegito cursed under his breath
"Shit."
Vegito looked back and a pang of horror hit him in his stomach, almost as if Caulifla had punched him.
"Don't say that word," Vegito commanded in an exasperated tone.
"Say what word?" Caulifla inquired as she walked into the kitchen and set her things down over at the table.
"Shit," Vegito Jr said with an innocent smile on his face.
Caulifla hit the floor, shocked at what she just heard, though anger slowly started to come over her as Vegito just stood there with his face paler than a white sheet of paper, not believing his luck.
Caulifla got herself up at the floor and looked at her son, asking him who taught him that word.
"Dad," Vegito Jr replied, pointing at the elder of the two.
Vegito just let out a yelp, not believing that his son would rat him out as Caulifla went blue and started to walk over to Vegito ever so slowly.
"Look, it was an accident! I wanted him to say dad, and I tried to tempt him with a chocolate bar, he started crying, I gave it to him, he dropped it, I cursed and then he said it!" Vegito pleaded without taking a breath, as the abject look of horror paled in comparison to Caulifla's stern expression, a literal death glare.
Caulifla finally powered down, though her disappointment still showed.
"Whatever. But if my mom here's this I'll make sure you're the one who gets chewed, and it'll be worse than if I did it," Caulifla stated coldly, as Vegito didn't know if that was good or bad news for him.
"Other than that, I hope it made you happy that he called you dad for the first time."
"Kinda, but I didn't imagine it happening under these circumstances," Vegito openly admitted. "I never thought he would rat me out like that."
"Well, that's because he's a good boy!" Caulifla exclaimed as she twirled some of his hair through her fingers as she picked him up and held the boy in her arms to take him upstairs for a nap.
"Don't forget about tomorrow. I got the clothes you need on the table. I'll be back down in a bit," Caulifla said as her voice trailed off while ascending the stairs. A short while later, Vegito joined Caulifla in the bedroom and sat down next to her on the bed, clutching her hand.
"Caulifla, I thought you wanted to train every day, no?" Vegito asked.
"I do, but I think we deserve a break to be together… as a family."
Vegito let out a puff of air as he let his back hit the bed cushion.
"I see your point. We are always training and fighting without much rest," Vegito said.
"But this whole time you helped me become stronger, and I think I've pushed you as well," Caulifla slightly smiled. "Though do you ever wonder about finally being able to test the full power of blue against people like Champa, Vados and Hit at all?" Caulifla pried.
Vegito chuckled lightly at her inquiry. "Not yet. That why I'm training and fighting with you, and I believe you're going about things in the same way as I am." Vegito said quietly.
"Yeah, you're right. But you have so much more raw talent than I do. I always have to work harder to keep up," Caulifla said as she walked downstairs, grabbing a piece of paper and a pencil.
"I think I have a good idea for a new gi..." Caulifla mused to herself as she finished up the design details.
"There! This doesn't look half bad if I do say so myself!" Caulifla exclaimed as she booked it outside to make it back to the store.
"I'll be back soon Vegito! Gotta drop something off really fast!" she yelled from the yard as she took off and was out of sight in the blink of an eye.
Vegito didn't hear her say anything, but he sensed that Caulifla had moved a ways away.
"Huh. Where'd she fly off to?" He wondered aloud as he checked on his son before going downstairs.
The movie Caulifla had been watching was long over, as he decided to just plop onto the sofa when Caulifla reappeared next to him, holding two ice cream cones.
"Want some?" Caulifla asked as Vegito gladly took his cone and licked at the sweet, cold treat now in his hand.
Two days later
Planet Qoaria
The snow was everywhere, but it was dazzlingly beautiful on Qoaria. Even in the brisk cold, it was as if they stepped into a snow globe, as the sun still beamed down, yet the snow didn't melt at all.
"This is amazing," Vegito remarked, gazing around the outside area.
"Told ya it would be a good place to spend time together," Caulifla said with a look of satisfaction, holding Vegito Jr. in her left arm as she scooped up some snow and packed it into a ball and chucking it at Vegito's back, as it splattered onto his coat jacket.
"A snowball fight, eh?" Vegito quipped with an amused grin. "Let's see how you like this!"
It took only two seconds for him to pick up the snow and pack it and hitting Caulifla square on her right shoulder, as laughter ensued and the "war" had begun. Vegito versus Caulifla, with Vegito Jr. still by Caulifla's side as both sides made snow barriers to shield themselves.
Back and forth they went, some hits, some misses, but each of them enjoying this bit of fun as Caulifla handed a snowball to Vegito Jr.
"Throw this and hit you daddy Vegito Jr.!" Caulifla said in a whimsical tone, as Vegito stopped himself from launching his next snowball, still gripping it in his hand, as Caulifla took notice.
"What's wrong, Vegi? Did you freeze up over there?" She snickered as Vegito relaxed and walked over to the two of them calmly, dropping his snowball.
"Caulifla, I don't know about you, but sometimes I feel as if it gets a little confusing with someone asking for the name Vegito around us, but it's not about me."
"And what about it?" Caulifla inquired, her left eyebrow raised.
"Maybe it would be easier to separate myself and Jr. over there if we call him something a little… different."
"Well, Einstein, what do you have in mind?" Caulifla asked as she started to see the angle Vegito was coming from.
"A nickname for him would help separate us. Maybe something like, I don't know, Gito?" He offered up.
"Gito, huh?" Caulifla murmured as she mulled it over.
"I actually like that. What do you think Gito?" Caulifla looked over at Vegito Jr., looking for a reaction.
It took a few seconds to process, but he smiled, laughing a bit and both parents looked at each other and smiled.
"Gito it is then," Vegito stated. "Now, how abou-Ow!"
"Sorry, you let your guard down," Caulifla said with a smirk as Vegito's face was covered by snow, as Caulifla launched a snowball right into his face, as he shook his head like a dog, clearing the white substance from his mug, but still feeling the cold sting from the blow.
"Oh, it is game on now!" Vegito declared as he jumped back over to his barrier, firing off a whole barrage of snowballs as everyone got hit over and over by the flying white spheres, with Vegito, Caulifla and Gito all laughing, and all Smiling.
Universe Seven
Planet Earth
"Ugh! Where could Vegeta be?! I told him to get into that clown costume an hour ago for Trunk's party!" Bulma said, incensed as she paced about her lab when Vegeta finally walked in.
It's about time you… wait, Vegeta! Why are you wearing THAT!?" Bulma yelled as she saw the orange jumpsuit with a blue undershirt, and wristbands, though Vegeta still wore his trademark shoes.
"You told me to dress like a clown and I did," he scoffed. "What more do you want?"
"Goku isn't a clown, despite what you may think, mister!" An enraged Bulma cried out as she backed Vegeta into a corner, as he couldn't help but act like a deer in headlights.
"But he is-"
"I don't want to hear it!" Bulma said, clearly disappointed with the prince. "Now go and do what I told you to do since I don't think you want to see your son disappointed on HIS BIRTHDAY."
"Tch. Fine, Bulma. I'll do it," Vegeta grumbled, pulling off the orange top as he walked out of Bulma's lab and back towards his room.
Bulma couldn't help but let out a sigh, as she sat on her desk and shook her head.
"Saiyans. Great protectors and enforcers, but no taste in style or listening to others," she remarked, exasperated but relieved that Vegeta complied without too much resistance.
Universe Six
Planet Qoaria
"Man, this is some good hot cocoa!" Caulifla exclaimed, as she felt the smooth, warm fluid slish and slosh into her stomach, warming her up on the inside in a pleasurable way as she sprinkled a couple of marshmallows into Gito's drink.
"Drink it slowly," Caulifla warned him, as she placed a straw into his cup.
As Gito began to sip on his drink, Vegito kicked back in his chair, feet on the tabletop with his own mug in his left hand.
"Today was a blast, Cali! I hope you have some good stuff planned out already," Vegito remarked as he took a sip of his drink.
"Well, I wanted to go snowboarding. However…" she trailed off as she patted Gito on the head, as she moved his straw to suck up the melting marshmallows.
"Someone would have to watch this guy right here. So I grabbed a brochure to gather some other ideas for what we could all do together."
"There should be plenty of stuff for us to do. But we don't want this guy to get sick from being in the cold and snow too much."
"That's unusual. From Vegeta's memories, we Saiyan's rarely, if ever, get sick. Only a heart virus Kakarot fought off is the only kind of illness I've seen a Saiyan get," Vegito remarked.
"Well, once Saiyan kids here reach the age of four, they rarely, if ever get sick. But under four, they still have the chance to come down with something."
She finished her cup of cocoa and grabbed their room key off the table.
"Let's head up. I'm a bit tired from earlier." Caulifla said.
"Same here," Vegito said as he put his mug down and picked up Gito, and a few minutes later, they keyed into their room and flopped back-first onto the bed.
Gito was already looking drowsy, as Caulifla looked at him in Vegito's arms as he fell asleep against his father's chest. Vegito then softly raised him up and put him on the bed between himself and Caulifla.
"So what are you thinking about for tomorrow?" Vegito asked quietly.
"Well, there's a park nearby the resort and a mountain we could climb up on, but as I said earlier, I'd prefer not to be outside with him too often tomorrow," Caulifla said.
"I assume the museum is a non-starter for you?" Vegito inquired.
"You know they bore me Vegi," she shot back with a slight smirk so he knew she wasn't trying to chew him out.
"Well, we can decide later. But I wonder how Cabba and Kale are doing on Prema right now?" Vegito pondered aloud as he sank further into the soft, comfortable bed underneath him.
