Dragon Ball ½

Chapter 3

By: Aarashi

Notes: Hi! It's me again. I'd just like to add something in, which I should've done before, but didn't. For those of you who don't know, here's a little explanation on the Jusenkyo curse.

If someone (let's use Gohan as an example) fell into a cursed spring, (IE Spring of Drowned Girl) then their cursed form would be a girl. If you pour hot water on Gohan when he's a she, she'll turn back into a he, but only until the next splash of cold water.

So, in other words, cold water activates the curse, warm/hot water reverses it.

Just thought I'd clear that up! ^_^()

City adventure!

After they had all gotten some hot water poured on them, the started to fly back home.

Except, there was a problem.

"Dad, what'll we tell mom?" A worried Gohan asked his father.

"Well… what if we just don't let her know?"

"But… but she'll find out eventually!"

"Not if we're careful!"

Vegeta apparently had nothing to say on the subject, so he flew ahead of them.

When the trio was almost home, a low rumble of thunder was heard.

Goku & Gohan had caught up to Veggie, but when the thunder was heard, he looked slightly… panicked.

The lightning flashes didn't help much either. All of them powered up a bit, and went as fast as they possibly could without going SSJ… too bad they didn't.

The rain started pouring down in sheets, and they transformed. Gohan-chan was still able to fly, because he stayed (half) saiya-jin with his curse, apparently. However, the same didn't go for Vegeta-neko & Goku-nekokun. Vegeta, obviously, turned into just an ordinary cat, but Goku apparently turned into an ordinary cat-boy.

There was lots of hissing, meowing, and screaming as the two fell.

"DAD!" Gohan-chan swooped down and collected her father & Vegeta-neko.

Veggie-neko has a look of petrification on his face, and Goku-nekokun was a bit shocked.

"I didn't know I wouldn't be able to fly!" He panted.

Gohan-chan would've rubbed her poor, aching head, but she was holding a large cat-boy, and a cat.

By the time she reached the forest in which her home resided, poor Gohan-chan wanted to cry. They were all soaking wet, it was still storming, and for crying out loud she was a girl!!

"Where are we gonna get hot water in the middle of a forest?!" Gohan-chan nervously said while wringing her hands. "How the heck are we gonna go home like this?!"

Goku-nekokun shook his head. "Maybe we could stay here overnight? Or we could stay here until it stops storming, and then get some water out of the lake & heat it up?"

Gohan-chan was very tempted to bang her head against a tree. "I guess staying overnight is a good idea… Then we can heat some water up in the morning."

Goku-nekokun glanced at the cat, which miserably looked like he was trying to commit suicide, and looked back at Gohan-chan. He whispered, "But what about Vegeta?"

Gohan-chan whispered back. "What about him?"

"You know… he lost his clothes the first time, and this time he lost that towel…"

Gohan-chan clapped a hand over her mouth. "Oh my Kami…"

Veggie-neko had since disappeared under a bush to shelter himself from the rain.

Gohan-chan banged her head against a tree once. "In the morning, he could wait here & we could bring back something…"

Goku-nekokun shrugged, and lay down on the wet grass. Gohan-chan banged her head against the tree once more, lie down, and fell asleep.

In the morning, the grass wasn't wet, and it was sunny and nice outside. Vegeta-neko was the first to wake up.

He came out from under the bush, and wandered between Gohan-chan & Goku-nekokun.

He punched Gohan-chan in the cheek. She didn't move.

He punched Goku-nekokun in the cheek. He twitched, but didn't wake up.

Veggie-neko sat down for a few minutes. 'Why the hell am I waiting around for these low-class idiots?!' He thought; and snapped up.

He picked a direction, and started to walk in it. He didn't know he was heading towards the city…

About half an hour later, Gohan-chan & Goku-nekokun woke up.

"Dad… Where's Vegeta?"

Meanwhile, with Vegeta-neko, he was wandering on the streets of the city.

He had passed several oddball people that looked down at him weird.

Veggie-neko'd even passed a mother with a cute little boy. The kawaii little boy had tried to pet him, but the idiot

mother had dragged the boy away saying something about 'rabies'.

Vegeta-neko paused at a limousine that was in the parking lot of a mall. While he was walking around the long car, inspecting it, one of the tinted windows rolled town. A fluffy, white cat looked down at him.

"You there… come into my limo." The cat said.

'DID THAT CAT JUST TALK?' Vegeta-neko questioned himself.

'Yes, I did.' A thought popped up in Veggie-kitty's mind, but it wasn't his own.

'Is this how cats communicate with each other?' He thought again to himself.

'Is there a reason you're asking dumb questions?' Another thought happened in his mind.

'STAY OUTTA MY HEAD!' Vegeta-neko psychically told the fluffy white cat.

'Fine then. Come into my car, so we can talk without disturbance.'

Veggie-cat managed to climb through the window of the car.

"Now then… who are you, and are you serving your purpose?" The fluffy cat asked him.

'…What purpose? And who the hell are you?'

"You don't know me? Perhaps you haven't even heard of The Plan?"

Veggie-neko slowly shook his head no.

"Well then…Allow me to introduce myself. I am Mr. Tinkles, and I will be the future ruler of the earth one day."

Vegeta-neko blinked. 'I tried to take over the world once… it's harder than it seems.'

Mr. Tinkles seemed interested. "Oh really? Because I think I would know if any other cat tried to take over the world."

Vegeta-neko thought Mr. Tinkles was an idiot. 'Are you being disrespectful to me, the Prince of all Saiya-jins?'

"The prince of all… what's? Is that another name for tabby cats?"

Vegeta-neko started to grow angry at the foolish feline.

"Who helped you try to take over the world?"

'My stupid partner Nappa. I ended up killing him, because he was weak and worthless. I would've gotten away with the world, too, except Kakkorott's stupid brat transformed and almost beat me…'

"I like you. If I do take over the world --and I know I will—would you like to make rules and be commander of the army?"

'Hell no! I am the Prince of Saiya-jins! If anyone's going to control this pitiful excuse for a planet, it will be ME!'

Vegeta-neko proceeded to beat the kitty litter out of Mr. Tinkles, and leave the car.

"Here, kitty kitty kitty…" Goku-nekokun called for Vegeta.

"Dad…" Gohan-chan started, "We're looking for Vegeta, not a cat."

"But Vegeta is a cat!"

Gohan-chan smacked her forehead.

Vegeta-neko had wandered towards the mall. He was tempted to go inside, to find out why the place attracted so many females, but before he could go in something stopped him. He saw Bulma walking out to her car.

Veggie-neko ran as fast as his cat legs could carry him after Bulma. When she about reached her car, so did he.

"Aw, what a cute kitty!" She petted him. He hissed and she took a step back.

"What's a matter, kitty? Do you have… rabies?"

"Nyao."

Bulma put her shopping bags away & quickly got into her car, ready to drive away.

Vegeta-neko, however was not about to let her get away. He latched onto the bumper as she pulled out of the parking space.

When she started driving out of the lot, he climbed up onto the roof of the car.

While he was looking, he happened to see a woman fussing over her cat.

"OH, MY POOR, DARLING MR. TINKLES! WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU?!"

-------

Hi! How'd you like it? I haven't actually seen the movie 'Cats & Dogs', but I wanted to add Mr. Tinkles in.

While I was writing this, I realized it had the capability to turn into a Piccolo/Gohan… but it's not. Because this isn't, no matter what, going to turn into a romance thing.

FF.net messed up the format of the last chapter AGAIN. -_- If they do it to this chapter, I'm seriously going to be pissed off.

Oh well! Review if you'd like. ^_^ Ja mata!
