Vegeta was sitting on his couch again, but this time he wasn't trying to mind his own business. He was trying to shut Bulma and her list up. Yet another human ritual was about to take place an he really could care less! Chibi Trunks and Goten wouldn't shut up all day about some white bunny and all he wanted now was to go to bed. But noooooooooo! The woman was making him set up eggs. All around the house. She said something about an egg hunt and now she was going throug her list of things that had to be done tomorrow. Apparently, this ritual aslo required a get together of the Z team. Vegeta was part of no team! He was a single man team! He could take on Freeza, Cell and all of Freeza's men all alone! Or so that is what he told himself.

Yet Vegeta as we all know, was never that great of a warrior. He never really did get as good as Goku did. His own skills like the refinement that Goku's had. Vegeta groaned and stood up ignoring Bulma. He needed some sleep.

Unfortunantly for him, Chibi Trunks was bouncing on his bed sometime during the middle of the night. "Daddy! Daddy! Daddy! IT IS EASTER! THE EASTER BUNNY WAS HERE! HE WAS ALL WHITE AND FLUFFY! AND PRETTY!"

"Someone was in our house?!" Vegeta asked not really knowing who this Easter bunny was.

"YES! IT WAS THE EASTER BUNNY!"

"TRUNKS! IF YOU DON'T SHUT YOUR MOUTH SO THAT SOME PEOPLE CAN SLEEP I AM COMING IN THERE!" Mirai Trunks' voice could be heard ringing through the halls. Chibi Trunks squinched up in fear and lied down next to Vegeta.

"Can I sleep with you and Mommy tonight, Daddy?" he asked barely above a whisper.

"Absolutely not!" Vegeta screamed at the poor child.

"THAT IS IT!" The sound of Mirai Trunks' heavy foot steps could be heard pounding through the halls. For once in Vegeta's life, he felt fear. "I AM GOING TO FIND YOU BOTH! AND WHEN I DO, PRAY TO KAM THAT YOU WILL LIVE!" The door slammed open letting in rays of light. Light, that for a change, represented death in a way. Mirai Trunks smirked as Vegeta's teeth began to rattle. Bulma was snoring away as this was all taking place. Mirai Trunks, ripped the covers up and lifted both Chibi Trunks and Vegeta by their shirt collars into the air. "Now! There are some people who are trying to sleep. Me in particular. If I do not get my sleep, I am not happy. If I am not happy, no one else is happy. Is that clear?" Both of them nodded and Mirai Trunks dropped them on the floor and left to go and get his beauty sleep. Vegeta looked over to Chibi Trunks and scowled at him.

"You started this."

"You did!"

"You did!"

"YOU DID!" Mirai Trunks' foot steps stopped and turned around. Vegeta looked over to Chibi Trunks and scowled again. Chibi Trunks stuck his tounge out at him. Vegeta had to fight the urge to reach out and grab the little brats tounge. But, the room became very dark. Mirai Trunks was standing in the door way, and he looked pissed. He scowled at them both and Chibi Trunks ran to his own room as Vegeta ran to his bed.

"Much better. Now for some sleep."

Vegeta found himself surrounded by the people he hated most. Why were these parties always held at Capsule Corp?! There were a few exceptions though. There were sometimes parties at Kame house, like once every five years. All of which Vegeta got to skip. He could thank Goku for being lost in space for that. But, he wouldn't. He wasn't thankful for anything Goku did. But this was not the point. The point was, Vegeta found himself surrounded by the people he hated most. Namily, the Sons. He shuddered and closed his eyes after last nights adventures. Mirai Trunks was still not awake yet, and no one ever dared to wake Mirai Trunks from his sleep. It just wasn't safe.

Bulma felt everything was perfect. All of the guests were here and all the kids were ready to go on their egg hunt. She made sure the egg hunt was perfect as well. Piccolo of course was taking care of all pictures and movies. Vegeta, was sitting on his couch, minding his own business. When, Mirai Trunks came pounding down the stairs with bags under his eyes. He took a seat next to Vegeta and growled. "I blame this souly on you and my chibi self."

"Like I care." Within a second, Mirai Trunks had Vegeta by the collar of his neck and a glare of hate in his eyes.

"You had better care. I didn't get enough sleep last night. That means I am not happy. And when I am not happy, no one is happy."

"Yeah, I get the happy thing."

"Then care damn it!"

"I care, I care! Geez! Worse than Freeza, right here."

"FREEZA!" Goku screamed and started running around getting ready for battle and warning everyone in Capsule Corp. For a change, Vegeta found this to be amusing.

"Cell is here too Kakorrot."

"CELL?!?!?! NNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOO! GOHAN! Go super Saiya-jin two!!! Only you can defeat Cell!"

"And Pilaf as well."

"PILAF!!! Wait...Pilaf was that cute little emporer guy. Hey! I like Pilaf! Where is he?!?! I don't see him anywhere!"

"Goku," Bulma started. "There are no enemies here. And Pilaf was our first enemy."

"Oh, that is right. Nevermind then. Then why would Vegeta tell me that they are all here?!"

"He is just a little excited himself."

"Oo! We should all go down to the mall to see the Easter Bunny!"

"The mall is closed on Easter."

"Oh. I forgot." Goku hung his head in depression and sat down between Vegeta and Mirai Trunks, who had fallen asleep again. Bulma sighed and waved her hands gathering everyone around her.

"It is time for the anual Capsule Corp Egg Hunt. Only people under the age of 20 may partake in this event. The eggs have been scattered all around the Capsule Corp property. Except in the Labs. No one is to go in there. Mirai Trunks! Wake up!" Mirai Trunks sat up quickly and blinked his eyes.

"What?" he asked in a whiny voice.

"You will partake in this activitey as well." Vegeta busted up laughing. He did know a few things about Earth's culture. And one thing he did know is that Miria Trunks didn't like doing anything that little kids did. "Oh and Vegeta, I need you to come with me. The hunt will begin when I get back. She led Vegeta into her lab and handed him a bag. "Put it on."

"What the hell is it?"

"Just put it on!" She definetly did not have the air of playfulness. Vegeta was beginning to believe he was growing soft. He put on the white costum and looked in the mirror on the wall. Much to his great distress and horror, he was a rabbit. How he hated cute and cuddly things. The first rabbit he had seen when he started living on earth, he had killed and cooked for his dinner. He would never hear the end of it from Bulma. She was always bringing that back up.

"I don't have to go out there in this, do I?"

"No one has to know it is you. I will tell everyone it is a profesional doing the job. You just have to wait out side by that tree stump and wave your hands when ever you see someone. When the kids come to you, you hand them an egg and pat them on the head. And that is it. You don't even have to say anything. Understand?"

"You owe me big time for this."

"Oh and another thing. Why are you doing this without a fight? It is kind of scarring me." Vegeta hmphed and looked away with his arms crossed. "There is my Veggie chan. Now go out there and wave!" Vegeta stalked off as Bulma went back to the living room.

This was the most boring job Vegeta had ever had. And the most humiliating too. So far no one had come out of the house yet, and he was starting to get sick of standing so he took a seat on the stump. Time passed slowly. Hours became days and seconds became hours. He was dying of boredom. It reminded him of his times in space. All those hours when he could have been training he was traveling around space doing absolutely nothing! His thoughts were interupted by the sound of shouts of joy. Chibi Trunks and Goten landed on his lap shouting and laughing and hugging him. The affection towards him was sickening. He pushed them both off his lap and growled at him. Tears welled in the children's eyes and they both started crying. Bulma was watching him from a far shaking her head. He sighed and picked them back up. He then took out two eggs from his basket and handed one to each of them. They hugged him again and ran off as Gohan came by with Pan and Bra. He handed each of the girls an egg and sighed. How stupid was this. They just came by and took eggs. He sighed and waited to see if anyone else would come. Several children in the neighborhood that afternoon gathered from him and others took it upon them to kick him in the shin. He would chase those brats down until their parents would find out what he was doing. He would then run back to his stump.

That was, until it had started to rain. He picked up his pretty pink basket and ran to the doors. They were all locked. He started banging like crazy...

"I will never do anything like that again for you."

"I am sorry Vegeta. We just didn't hear you banging."

"That is just your lame excuse! You just didn't want me to fight with Kakorot!"

Vegeta's Thought of the Day: Well, I hate rabbits. It is as simple as that. And the world does not revolve around Mirai Trunks, even though it might have seemed like that in this fic. *silence*........right.

Author's note: So, I am losing my touch with humor. But actually, fics won't be coming so fast from me anymore. I am writing the life story of a friend of mine and most of my time will be devoted to that from now on. But I will still find time for my fics. =^_^=
