Whew! I nearly thought you guys would kill me after I messed up with the characters on the first chapter... You know, trying something different is like risking you head... Well, all the characters actually are OOC on the "Behind the Scenes" section, except for Marron, who is OOC even in the main story. Ok, have a good time.

- Capsule Corps. -
"Oooouch! My head hurts... I think a drank more then I should yesterday..." mumbled Bulma as she slowly sat up on the bed. Laying beside her, there was Vegeta. "What??? Vegeta? Is he still asleep??? Oh, now I remember! He was also drunk..." then she smiled and carefully got up, heading to the bathroom.
Meanwhile on the kitchen, Trunks and Bra were already having their breakfast and were just waiting for their friends to appear, so they could go together to their theater class. It didn't take too long for the bell to ring.
"It must be them. Go open the door please, oniichan."
"Why don't you go instead? I didn't finish yet."
"Neither did I!" informed Bra, looking at Trunks and pointing to the door.
The young man just rolled his eyes and got up, mumbling something not understandable. 'Just like Bra. Always bossing around, instead of working that lazy butt.' he thought.
He walked towards the main door and opened it. It was Marron.
"Hi, Trunks!" she quickly hugged him and placed a kiss on his cheek. "Am I late?" she purred, smiling at him flirtuously.
"Oh, not really. Pan and Goten didn't arrive yet." he said politely, stepping back for her to come in.
"Then let's wait for them." Marron hooked her arm with his as they walked inside.
"Did you already have breakfast?" asked Trunks, leading her to the kitchen.
"Oh yeah, thank you."
Fifteen minutes later, they were all finished eating and were in the living room waiting for Goten and Pan. Bra rushed to the door when the bell rang, and there they were, along with Goku.
"Hi, minna!" cheered Goku, with his typical smile.
Marron quickly grabbed Trunks' arm when she spotted Pan standing beside her grandfather. The Saiyajin girl just frowned a little, but then she greeted everyone as politely as possible.
"Goku-san! Are you going with us?" asked Trunks.
"Yep. I came to pick Vegeta, either. We decided to join the teather group." he answered still smiling.
"What?!! Dad attending theater classes? Sugoooi!!!" Bra started jumping up and down, clapping her hands excitedly.
Just then, Vegeta entered the room followed by Bulma.
"What are you doing here, Kakkarot?"
"I came to pick you, Vegeta. We start theater class today, don't you remember?"
The saiyan prince simply mumbled something and within a minute everybody took off to the theater.
"Hello, boys! You finally came!" greeted Ayla, the director's assistant and co-director. "Oh, I see you brought new people!"
"Hello, I'm Son Goku and this is Vegeta. We start attending classes today." said Goku.
"Oh, welcome Mr. Son and Mr. Vegeta. The rehearsal has already started. I'll call Mr. Shed and then he will decide what will be your roles today. Just a minute, please."
Goku nodded and Vegeta stood there with his arms crossed.
Meanwhile, Marron continued flirting with Trunks, and Pan was starting to become really annoyed. 'This is disgusting!' she thought.
Then came the director, holding the scripts.
"Good morning everyone! Mr. Son, Mr. Vegeta, I'm pleased to meet you, I'm Alan Shed, the director."
"Oh, pleased to meet you, Mr. Shed!" Goku greeted him, while Vegeta just grunted, as always.
"Well, since we have many actors here today I'll split you into two teams. Trunks, Pan and Marron will keep on this stage (area 6). Goten, Bra, Mr. Son and Mr. Vegeta, please follow miss Ayla to the other stage (area 5)." instructed the director.
Within a few minutes, everyone was ready to begin the rehearsals.
- area 6 -
"Ok, people, you can take the same roles as yesterday." said the director.
"Wait, Mr. Shed!" came a voice. It was Marron. "Could I play princess Helena today? Just for today..." she begged.
"Wait..." Pan was about to complain, but was interrupted by the positive answer from Shed. The girl let out a sigh. 'This isn't my day. I shouldn't have gotten out of my bed!' she thought.
Marron couldn't help squeal and shoot a triumphant look at Pan. Then she rushed into Trunks and began chating with him enthusiastically. Some minutes later they were kissing, in order to play their characters. Pan knew it was just fake, but even so she felt her heart brake into pieces. Besides, when she was with him on the stage, a day before, she kissed him with all her soul. Sometimes the line that separates reality from fiction can be really thin. That's why she wasn't sure if they were really kissing or just acting. She wasn't worried about Marron, but Trunks. Did he feel something for the blond girl? It was hard to stay from watching them kiss. She gave an excuse to the director and got off. Trunks noticed her desolated expression and began feeling umconfortable. But Marron was decided to not let him go. And so she did.
- area 5 -
"So did you understand, minna?" asked Ayla, after telling everybody what would be their respective roles.
"Hai!" said all the actors.
"Good, so Goten and Bra would you please come to the center? You will now play the scene where Julia and Richard reconciliate with each other." Ayla smiled at the two demi-saiyans.
"Ok, miss Ayla." obeyed Bra and Goten.
Then, they both got on the center of the stage and, after reading their scripts, they finally started acting. I mean, at least they tried...
"Oh, Julia..." Goten was so absorbed on the dramatical scene that, somehow, his face was very funny to Bra.
"Richard, I have..." Bra kept staring at the other demi-saiyan's face and felt like she was about to burst out laughing. "Richard, I... ha ha ha!!! I have to... ha ha ha ha ha!!!" she began laughing hard.
Everybody looked at her startled.
"Bra-chan? What's up?" asked Ayla.
"Gomen, gomen!" apologized Bra, waving her hands in front of her. "Let's try again..."
Then Goten started speaking once more.
"Oh, Julia..." He had the same dramatical face, and that was making it hard for Bra to keep serious.
"Richard I... HA HAH HAHA HA!!! Goten... HA AH HAH!! Stop... HA HA HA! ...making that face!" she tried to say, as tears rolled down her cheek.
"What face?" asked Goten, not really understanding what he was doing wrong. His confused face was even funnier.
"This face!" she said staring at him and touching his nose with her finger.
And then it happened. The more she stared at his face the more she wanted to laugh. And now it was not because of his funny face, but simply because when you start laughing you just can't stop anymore. It happens with some actors sometimes.
Everybody on the stage, except Vegeta, began laughing too, and so Goten did the only thing that took into his mind. He kissed Bra.
Her eyes went wide open with surprise, and there was complete silence.
"Kakkarot! What is your brat doing to mine!??" asked Vegeta in a demanding tone.
"Calm down, Vegeta. They are just playing their roles..." said Goku, with his arms crossed.
"Hnf! He'd better not mess with her or I'll beat him into a pulp!" said the Saiyan prince.
"Goten-san! It's not the time for the kissing scene yet!" informed Ayla.
"Gomen, miss Ayla." he bowed.
Bra was blushing now, she still felt his lips on hers and obviously wasn't feeling like laughing anymore. And so they were able to finish their rehearsal.
Then it came Goku's and Vegeta's turn. They would play a scene between two brothers, one of them was about to die and the other was asking for his forgiveness. Vegeta would play this last one.
"What!?? Will I have to ask Kakkarot's forgiveness!?? I'd rather die!!!" yelled the angry Saiyan.
"Mr. Vegeta! That's on the plot! And he is not Kakkarot, he is Fred Roberts, Frank Roberts' younger brother. Now please memorize your script." explained Ayla.
"You know, Vegeta. I can act better than you." Goku sang, smirking.
Vegeta frowned and clenched his teeth, those three words, 'better than you', played on his mind again and again. The only thing he couldn't accept, and never could, was the fact that Goku was better than him. So he swallowed his pride and finally got ready to act.
"Ok. Now please Mr. Goku, just lay on the floor and Mr. Vegeta stay next to him." instructed Ayla, and they just did as they were told. "Ok, now begin."
"Frank... Is that you?" said Goku, interpreting the agonizing man.
"Oh, my b-bro... bro.. brother..." said Vegeta. It was consuming all his efforts to say the word 'brother', that kept tied on his throat.
"Oh, no, Mr. Vegeta. Try to relax a bit more. Ok, let's try again." said Ayla.
Vegeta grunted and repeated again. "Oh, my brother."
"No, no, not like this. Try not to sound like a robot, sir." she explained, moving her hands.
Goten and Bra was trying hard not to laugh, so they cupped their mouths with their hands, in case they weren't able to hold it. Besides, it was supposed to be a drama...
After Vegeta finally managed to say the first statement the rehearsal went on.
"Frank, I can't see you... Hold my hand, please!" continued Goku.
"What!!? Do I have to hold his hand now!!?" shouted the prince. He looked at Ayla, who nodded, and reluctantly grabbed Goku's hand. If Goku was not a Saiyan he probably would have his hands broken.
"Fred..." so it came the "forgiveness scene". Everybody had their eyes staring intensely on Vegeta. "...please..." he was giving all of him. "...forgive..." everybody even came close to hear it better. "...me!" as Vegeta finished his sentence, Ayla, all the other actors, the employees, the people that were just passing by and all the remaining living creatures litfted up their arms, as if they were in a soccer game stadium yelling "Gooooal!" and cheered at the two Saiyans, complimenting them and applauding hard. Vegeta stood proud, being hugged and kissed on the cheek by his daughter.
So the night came and the theater was full of people again. The play on area 5 was a success, although the audience laughed instead of crying, and the pair Vegeta/Goku became the new sensation of Maxi Theater. However, on area 6, the things would be even more interesting...
"I, prince Henry, am here to claim my princess!" said Trunks, holding his sword and staring at the other man, who kept the princess as his prisioner.
"Then come and get her, if you can!" he said, throwing Marron to the floor.
"No, my prince, don't come!" she cried.
"I love you, princess, and I'll do anything to get you free!" then Trunks and the man started playing with their fake swords.
The play went on, and then it came the kissing scene between Trunks and Marron. But when they were about to kiss, Pan, who was playing princess Helena's guardian, couldn't hold herself anymore and entered the stage, to everybody's astonishment.
"WAIT! You can't do that, Trunks!" she said.
"What do you think you're doing, you baka!!?" yelled Marron.
"Trunks, I love you so much, more than anyone..." pleaded Pan, who was REALLY on the verge of crying.
The director, who was behind the stage, was nearly having a heart attack. "What does she think she's doing? Somebody, get her out of the stage!" he shouted.
"Wait, sir!" said Ayla. "Don't do that, look, the public seem to be enjoying!" then she winked at the surprised director.
"Pan..." Trunks whispered, looking right into her eyes.
Marron stared at him, then at Pan, and then back at him again. "Hey!!! That's not on the plot!!!" she yelled angrily.
"Shut up, Marron!!!" both Trunks and Pan shouted, still looking at each other. The blond girl screamed, and after almost eating all her fingernails she steped out of the stage fuming like an animal. (Marron fans, forgive me for this... but if it wasn't she, who else would it be?)
"Pan... I want you to know that I'm love with you too." he said holding her hands.
"Oh, Trunks! Forgive me, I lied to you when I said I had never kissed before..."
"I knew that, sweetie. I have enough experience to notice that. Besides, no guy would resist such a beauty..." he kept smiling at her. Then he got on his knees, still holding her hands. "Son Pan, I want to have the world as witness. Do you accept being my girl?"
She didn't say anything. She just let out a big smile and jumped into his arms. The new couple kissed passionately in front of the public (including me and the T/P fans). Everyone stood up from their seats whistling and applauding like mad.

- BEHIND THE SCENES -
"Oooh, peeps! My abdomen still aches!" said Bra walking out from the studio along with Pan, Trunks and Goten. "I've never laughed so hard in my life! Goten, you crazy boy! Did you know you actually made me laugh? I even didn't have to pretend!"
"What are you complaining about, Bra? Laughing is good, isn't it?" Goten said smiling. Bra just gave him a light slap on the arm.
"Hey, guys! I'm sooooo hungry! What about we eat something?" asked Pan.
"Indeed Panny, I think those whole years playing a Saiyan girl are making you act like one!" teased Trunks.
"Baka! It isn't that!"
"Oh, isn't it? Your granpa told me you want to join the Alpinism Club. You never liked radical sports."
"I just wanted to try something different. You know, I'm getting tired of this whole 'Trunks, I love you...' thing!"
"Now you are hurting my feelings, Panny! I really thought you had something for me..." Trunks teased again.
"Trunks, you are impossible today!" she smiled, pushing him to the side.
"Hey, you two, are you going to stay there flirting or are we going to eat?" asked Goten impatiently.
"We're going Goten!" they sped up their steps and got into the car still laughing.
