Cell Games: Five Card Draw (week 5)
Trunks yawns as he waits for the rest of them to arrive. "I really should put a spa in this place...." He looks around, trying to find the perfect spot for one, and Piccolo comes floating down to the ground next to him, with his cape fluttering in the wind. Trunks looks at him. "You're really happy to have your cape back, aren't you?" Piccolo smiles a big impish smile and sits down, saying nothing. Gokuo and Vegeta comes walking up, talking and laughing with their arms around each others shoulders. "That's a good one, Kakkorotto! You crack me up!" The two of them stop dead in their tracks and see that Piccolo and Trunks are stareing at them. Vegeta gets a sweatdrop over his head and looks around. Then he tackles Gokuo and the two of them start to brawl. "Damn you Kakorotto! I hate your guts! Die Die Die!" Trunks shakes his head. The two of them stop and Gokuo sits down in the chair, dusting himself off. Vegeta's eyes are little spirals as he makes his way over to his seat. Trunks checks his watch. "Where the HFIL is Cell?" Everybody shrugs. "Look out below!" They all look up and see Cell parachuting down from what resembles Air Force One with gunfire all around him. He crashes into the table and pulls the parachute off. Nobody asks. Cell stands up and picks pieces of table off of him and dusts himself off. "Sorry about the table..." Piccolo shakes his head and pulls out a folding table. "Don't worry about it, I came prepared." Nobody asks why Piccolo is carrying a folding table around and they all sit down.
Vegeta pulls on a green visor and starts dealing out the cards. Trunks smacks him upside the head, making the visor spin. "What's up with the visor?" Vegeta pulls it off and rams it down Trunks' throat. "Don't like it? Tough!" Trunks coughs up the visor, which goes flying into Gokuo's face, making him fall over backwards. He gets back in his seat and everybody takes their cards. Gokuo looks around at everybody. "Before we start playing, can somebody explain to me what happened last week?" They all start snickering and Vegeta pats Gokuo on the back. "I'll tell you when your older." Gokuo frowns. "Fine...." They all pick up their cards and start the game. Trunks decides not even to throw in his ante, but nobody notices, except for Cell who says nothing. Trunks smirks over at Cell and palms his sword. Cell gulps and buries his face in his cards. Trunks snickers and looks back at his cards. Vegeta looks at his cards with a huge frown on his face. "Who the fuck delt this shit?" Piccolo blinks. "Umm.....you did...." Vegeta scratches the back of his head. "Oh right...forget I said anything!" They all smack their foreheads and shake their heads.
Piccolo throws some chips in. "I call." Cell frowns looking at the chips. "Your supposed to use the gambling chips, not potato chips...." Piccolo looks at the chips he just threw in, which are in fact potato chips. "Whoops...." He takes them back and puts in the real chips. "Now I call..." Cell shakes his head and puts down his cards. "Five Ace's." Piccolo snaps his fingers. "Damnit....I only have four Ace's......hey wait a minute...." Cell looks at his watch. "Oh look at the time! Time for me to be taking my winnings and moving on to the next hand!" Piccolo scratches his head, trying to figure out what the fuck just happened, and Cell takes the pot. The rest of them snicker, watching Piccolo get swindled blindly. Piccolo leans back in his chair and Cell throws Vegeta, Trunks, and Gokuo each a $100 chip.
Gokuo scratches his head, seemingly deep in thought. The rest of them see this, and wonder if the world is ending. Trunks blinks. "Are....are you okay Goku?" Gokuo looks up. "Huh? Oh...yeah I'm fine...I just think I made a mistake before I left.....I just can't rememnber what it was....." He shrugs. "It's probably nothing, deal the cards." Piccolo shrugs and deals out the cards. They take them, but Gokuo is still thinking. Vegeta looks over at Gokuo's cards, but he doesn't notice. "Hmmm...." He takes Gokuo's cards out of his hands and starts to make two new hands. Gokuo doesn't even notice. Vegeta finishes up and puts all the crappy cards back in Gokuo's hand and keeps all the good cards for himself. Gokuo still doesn't have a clue what's happening. Trunks blinks. "Umm...Gokuo...." Vegeta slaps him upside the head. "Shut up boy!" Trunks bows his head. "Sorry sir...." Gokuo snaps out of it and looks at his cards, still completely oblivious as to what happened. They throw in their chips and take new cards. Vegeta doesnt take any, and neither does Gokuo. Cell folds, Piccolo folds, and Trunks folds too. Vegeta smirks and looks at Gokuo. "It's your bet." Gokuo nods and throws in a thousand dollar token. Vegeta snickers. "I'll call. I've got four Kings. Too bad for you, Kakorotto..." Gokuo scratches his head. "Umm....no." He puts down a royal flush. Vegeta's eyes bug out of his head. "How the hell did you do that?!" Vegeta jumps up and looks at Gokuo's cards. He does have a royal flush. Gokuo blinks. "What do you mean?" Vegeta starts shaking. "I took the wrong fucking hand.........." Gokuo blinks watching Vegeta turn red and tremble. "Are you ok Vegeta?" Vegeta cracks and tackles Gokuo and starts to pummel him. "Damn you Kakorotto!!! You did that on purpose!!!!!! You knew all along!!!!" Gokuo lays there and gets pummeled, still thinking. "Hmmm....." This pisses Vegeta off even further and he goes SSj4. Cell gets up and looks at Piccolo and Trunks. "Anybody want a beer?"
An hour more of Vegeta beating the hell out of the thinking Gokuo, the rest of them get fed up with it. Then Gokuo suddenly jumps up with an alarmed look on his face, sending Vegeta flying into the table. "Holy shit!!! Now I remember!!!! I left a note for Chi chi telling her where I'd be!!!!" The four of them look extremely alarmed. Trunks walks up next to Gokuo. "You left a note.....?" Gokuo nods. "Yeah...she went out and she said that if I was going anywhere to leave a note. So I did...." Trunks shakes his head. "You don't think she's coming.........do you?" Gokuo shudders. "We'd better hope not....." They sit back down at the table, and sirens go off. A spotlight appears on the table and Chi chi's voice comes booming over a bullhorn. "Alright! We've found you!" Vegeta gulps. "We....?" Bulma comes on the bullhorn. "I thought you said you were going bowling?! Just wait till we get home!!!" He gulps again and starts to sneak away. Bulma comes running up next to him and grabs his ear. "Shit! Help!!" She drags him away and Trunks comes up from under the table. Bulma stops, as if she sensed him, and comes running back, dragging Vegeta. She grabs Trunks by the ear and drags the two of them away. Chi chi is standing behind Gokuo with her arms folded tapping her foot on the floor. Gokuo gets down on his knees. "Now Chi chi...I can explain......" She grabs him by the hair and starts dragging him away. "I don't want to hear it!!!! You've really done it this time! What kind of role model are you trying to be for your sons?! You should be helping Gohan with his homework.....blah blah blah blah....." Piccolo looks at Cell. "I'm glad I'm not pussy whipped....." Cell smirks. "Me too..." A female version of Cell taps her foot from behind him and he turns around. A sweatdrop appears of his head. "Now honey...I was coming home soon....honest....." She whacks him with her pocketbook. "What are you trying to show Cell Jr., huh?!" She wraps him up in her tail and flys away. Piccolo blinks. "Well....guess I'll just have to take all this money....." He takes all the money that was left with a big smile on his face. He takes off, dropping a few coins here and there. And the "Trunks Arena" was quiet from then on.
So ends the Cell Games.......
