Rorian:Didn't you have something to say...?

Me:Oh yeah! There shall be...A SPECIAL PERSON WHO COMES BACK!! XD You'll NEVER guess.


Rorian:I suggested it.

Rorian:ZOMG YAY A BIZKIT! YOU'RE MY BEST FRIEND!!(eats biscuit)

Chapter 35:
The King and I

"Whaddya say, Rorian? You wanna come with me to search for survivors?" Alex asked.

"I'm sorry sis, buy no..." he said, "I just don't wanna...Please don't feel bad! It's not you!"

"No, it's alright, little bro. I don't mind at all. You can do whatever you want to."

"How often will you come visit me?"

"Hm...how about every 2 years? Does that sound good to you?"

"Well...okay..." he smiled, "But you have to PROMISE!!"

"Okay, okay! I promise!" she said.

"I just got an idea!" Bulma cut in.

"Huh?" Everyone asked.

"We'll use the radar to see where the dragon balls are!!"

"Good idea, Bulma!" Yamcha complimented, "You're a genius!"

"Don't worry, I know." She winked, "Alright...let's see..." she said, pulling out the radar and pressing the button. One light appeared.

"Uh, Bulma...is it broken?" Goku asked.

"No...because it's showing YOUR dragon ball...the others must be hidden out of range..." Bulma said, disappointed that her plan had failed.

"Well, they'll come after Goku's eventually." Yamcha said.

"No duh, Sherlock." Alex spat.

"Hey, shut up!" Yamcha barked.

"Why don't you make me?" Alex dared.

"Stop fighting, you two! We need a plan!" Bulma argued.

"Hmph. Well, if you're so worried someone will find out GOKU has the ball, then let me take it. I'll always be on the move, so it's not like I could be tracked down or anything. Besides, no HUMAN space craft could touch me!" Alex offered.

"Nah. I can look after it!" Goku chirped.

"But...Goku...you're putting yourself in unnecessary danger!" Bulma pleaded.

"Danger? No way!" Goku smiled and folded his arms triumphantly.

"Well...are you SURE?" Bulma asked again.

"Yeah. Besides...I wanna keep Grampa with me..." he said, and held the ball close to him.

"Okay...if you think you can keep your eye on it at ALL TIMES." Bulma emphasized, "So...what now, guys?" she asked.

"I don't know. We'll need to keep in touch so if the dragon balls appear, we can come together and take them back." Yamcha suggested.

"Captain Obvious." Alex muttered.

"What was that?!" Yamcha yelled.

"You heard me!" Alex then turned her back to Yamcha, "You're so HIDEOUS I can't stand to look at you any more."

"FINE!"

"Now, now, children...play nice..." Bardock joked. Both Alex and Yamcha shot him evil looks, "Sheesh!"

"Whatever. Anyways, I figure whoever it is will come out of hiding soon. So always be prepared." Yamcha continued.

"Good idea. Alright, since that's the plan, I guess we should split up." Bulma shrugged.

"Split up? BUT WE'RE NOT EVEN DATING YET!!" Yamcha protested.

"Um...Yamcha...I was talking about we should leave..." Bulma sighed, "I already HAVE a boyfriend. And he's a prince! The one and only Prince Vegeta!" she blushed and giggled.

"DARN IT!!"

"Ha ha! Lover boy got BURNED!!" Alex laughed.

"GRR!" Yamcha bellowed, then stomped off outside.

"See ya later, guys!" Bulma smiled, and chased out after Yamcha, followed by Puar and Oolong. Broly, however, flew off in another direction.

The next day, Alex departed after telling her friends and brother good bye. Bardose and Goku tried to get him to smile, with no effect. But the two older Saiyan boys weren't about to give up. It was time for...PLAN B!! Just what was this almighty plan B, though? Simple...just talk to him. Bardose and Goku walked up to him. He was sitting in the back yard, reading, and thinking about his family. He was starting to kind of regret not going with Alex.

"Hey, Rorian." Bardose said, sitting next to him. Goku did the same.

"Hey." Rorian sighed, not looking up.

"What're you readin?" Goku asked.

"An Earthling history book."(where did he get that...?) Rorian said matter-of-factly, "Yes, there's one thing I crave more than a good fight..."

"What's that?" the two other Saiyans asked.

"Knowledge." he closed the book, "It fascinates me to learn. There are so many things I don't know!"

"Hm..." Goku pondered for a second, "Hey! There are places made just for that! Skulls...isn't that what they're called, Bardose?"

"Schools...but yeah! That's a good idea, Kakarot!" Bardose agreed.

"Schools...? I don't know..." Rorian said, unsure.

"I'd go with ya so you wouldn't be all alone!" Bardose offered, "You could learn a lot!"

"I guess so..." Bardose shrugged.

"My father used to work at one, but he quit for some reason." Goku said, "He told me, but I didn't understand what 'sketcheds' was..."

"Sketcheds...?" Bardose and Rorian asked, but then shrugged it off.

The next day, Bardose and Rorian were trying to convince Goku to come with them.

"No way! I'm not goin back to that place! It was boring!" he protested, "I didn't learn ANYTHING useful, anyways!"

"Goku, you're so ignorant...everything you learn is useful!" Rorian sighed.

"As the sayin, goes, ignorance is bliss. Whatever that means..." Goku wondered.

"Same ol Kakarot..." Bardose rolled his eyes.

"You SURE you wanna go, baby?" Sash asked.

"Yes, mom. I'll be fine." Bardose re-assured her.

"Okay...be careful!" she said, and hugged him tightly.

"Mom...can't...breath!!" he gasped. Tora put his hand on her shoulder, then she nodded.

Meanwhile, Alex had been checking through her scouter, calling out for other Saiyans. After many hours of this, she picked up a transmission...

"How dare you do this! I am ROYALTY!!" the voice said.

"Oh, is that so? Oh well. Let's eat him!" a voice slurped.

"I AM KING VEGETA!! I DO NOT GET EATEN!" he protested.

"King...Vegeta...?!" she gasped.

"Huh?!" she heard him exclaim, "Just who are you?!"

"I am Alex. I'm a Saiyan, too. Sir, what are your coordinates? I can come help you out!" she offered.

"ZHG-386. These inhabitants would be DEAD if not for the fact I'm bolted down!!" he growled.

"Right! I'll be there right away, sire!"

Alex arrived to see the king, who was knocked out! The inhabitants LOOKED weak...but were they?

"King Vegeta!!" she exclaimed.

"You mean our main course?" one of the aliens said.

"Give him back!!" she growled.

"We haven't eaten in years!" a woman said.

"Yeah! We'we hungwy!" a child cried.

"What if I could take you to a planet with PLENTY to eat?" she offered with a smirk.

"Weawwy?!" the child exclaimed.

"Yeah! Alright...do you have any form of transport?" Alex asked.

"Yes."

"Load everyone on, then set the coordinates to 'XR-732'." she explained. They did so and left. Alex then untied the king.

"Where did you send them off to...?" he asked groggily.

"I don't know..." she pondered, then shrugged, "You okay?"

"Besides from some nasty rope-burn, yes, I'm fine."

"What happened? Weren't you one the planet when it-"

"I was close by. I had just come back from another planet, and was coming in for a landing when the planet was hit. I was blown far away to this place, and when I first awoke, I saw myself chained up." he explained.

"Interesting..." Alex said, "Where's the prince?"

"I don't know. I remember his saying something about another planet before he left, and then didn't come back."

"Yeah. His little girlfriend BULMA said something about him. But he wasn't on Earth when I left, so I figured he was with you. Oh well."

"Girlfriend?"

"Yup." (3...2...1...) "Vegeta likes and Earthling!"

"Oh God..." the king murmured.

"She's actually pretty bright. But bossy." Alex added, "Is your ship in tact?"

"Let's go see." they walked over to the pod, to see that it was in very bad shape. It was horrible dented, with slashes and marks all over it. Alex went inside of it to see if the power still worked.

"Well, besides being wrecked on the outside, it still runs. I tell you what, you take my pod and I'll take this one." she offered, "I know! Let's go to Earth! Bulma might know where to find Vegeta!"

"Hm...you have a good idea. Lead the way..."

"Alex. I'm at your service, my king!" she said and did a Saiyan's solute. They then set off for Planet Earth once again.

Meanwhile, on a planet not so far away, Turles heard the King and Alex talking.

"Prince Vegeta...?" he asked over his scouter.

"What is it, Turles?" Vegeta spat.

"It's your father, sir. He's alive."

"No possible way! You must be hearing things!" Vegeta argued.

"No, sir! He said he was on his way to Earth...wherever that is."

"What?! Earth?! But how does he..." Vegeta then ordered, "Then that's where we'll be going!"

"Sounds good to me. Wake me up when we get there..." Turles yawned then switched off his scouter.

Rorian:HEY! You changed the chapter title! You told me-

Me:I know what I said. Sorry, but I'll get to that next chapter. I figure the good people have waited long enough for an update.

Bardock:You have a point...

Rocky:See you guys later!
