Chapter 2
Gohan sat on the bed, waiting anxiously for his mother to wake. She had been out for the past hour now, and he hoped that she would be awake before Goku got home. Goten was also unconscious, but that was nothing new for Goten. He had woken in about 10 minutes, and, after seeing their mother out cold and with a tail sticking out, it woke up his memories of being pulverized by her, and he freaked out and took off for some mountain. Gohan didn't have time to chase after him, as his mother might wake up and he wanted to make sure he was here when she did. It made him angry that Goten had done that, but he pushed the anger down, thinking of the weird anger spurts he'd been having. He had never before gotten that angry, and after all, it was just Goten blowing an air horn. He wondered at it, and then dismissed it. It HAD been a long day, he was probably just anxious about that exam coming up. Maybe he could go visit Kurillen and just relax later. Leave his mom with Goku to cheer her up. He smiled a weary smile, glad he had figured out a simpler solution. With that thought, he settled into a more comfortable position, to wait for Chi-Chi to wake up. Relaxing more, he soon fell asleep.
Trunks stood up, reasonably sure that Vegeta was out cold. He powered down, dropping to Super Saiyan Level then back to normal, his hair changing back to its less than normal color. He sighed, and walked over to their table, which had two halves of a sensu bean on it. He seriously considered eating both, but quickly decided that would be too much like what Vegeta would do. He ate his half, feeling rejuvenated, then took off for home. After a few minutes of flying, he arrived at the door of Capsule Corp. He walked in, feeling somewhat proud of his accomplishment at beating Vegeta, then his pride sagged. Bulma would be royally mad if she found out what he had done, ESPECIALLY since he had left Vegeta on the ground unconscious. And well. those last 20 attacks to the head after Vegeta was unconscious weren't really necessary, but oh they felt good at the time. He changed his mind about the boasting, and tried to sneak in instead. He cracked the door open a little bit at a time to hear noises in the kitchen, then shut it just as slowly once inside. He slowly tip toed across the hall, then went up the stairs at the same rate. As he got to the top of the stairs, he looked down the stairs, feeling home free now. He turned to run down the hall, and ran smack into Bulma. "And just WHAT are you up to young man?" she asked in a loud voice. "Uh, nothing mom," he said, his face giving away his lie. "TELL ME WHATS UP RIGHT NOW!" she screamed. "Nothing!" Trunks yelled back, for the first time in his short life. "DON'T YOU EVER TALK BACK TO ME LIKE THAT!" she screamed. "FINE," he screamed back, then ran out the door and took off. He decided to fly to Goten's house for a visit, GOTEN didn't yell at him. Bulma simply waited, knowing Vegeta would have to come home eventually, he knew where the food was.
