Boy! Vegeta sure is a caring guy deep down! Goku thought while a warm smile covered his face. All he needed was a chance to start his life over.
"Hey Vegeta! Don't you think we should drive? I mean people could get suspicious seeing us flying in the air in broad daylight! We're not from Earth and all.. I don't want any trouble!" he asked.
They had been flying for only a few seconds though the cobalt Summer sky with the gentle, warm rays of the sun stroking their muscled bodies. Vegeta abruptly stopped; causing Goku to almost knock into him.
Hmm..that moron actually had something useful to say. He began to laugh loudly. Ha! That only happens once in a blue moon.
"Fine. Go find me a car then!" Vegeta commanded.
"Huh!? But Vegeta! Chichi has my only car. You saw how she acted! She is REALLY mad at me right now! I CAN'T go back there," Goku nervously stated.
"Then what do you suppose we do baka?" the prince flatly asked.
"I know! I'll teleport us there. All you have to do is tell me where you're taking me and we'll be there in a matter of seconds," Goku proudly beamed at his idea. I am SO smart! Why does everyone think I'm dumb?
"Hmph. You moron! Even if I told you where we are going, you still wouldn't know where it was because you've NEVER been there!" Vegeta spat out, "and besides..it is a surprise."
Surprise!? I LOVE surprises! Goku giddily thought. The two Saiya-jins levitated back to the hard, gray cement floor and began to observe their surroundings.
-~-~-~--~-~
They were in a suburb, a few miles away from the Capsule Corporation. Shops, and houses were scattered all around them.
"Hey Vegeta! LOOK over there!" Goku yelled while pointing to a building that had a huge array of vehicles, "They have a TON of cars! I bet they could let us borrow one."
Vegeta glanced to where Goku was pointing at. It was a car rental place.
I've seen this place on the box with moving pictures.. what did those humans call it..oh yes a television! He began to concentrate on remembering the rest of what he saw on the TV. Hmm..on that television thing it showed a human taking a car then returning it. That's a good idea. I'll do that!
-~-~-~--~-~
Vegeta raced toward the building at a inhuman speed. Goku trailed behind.
When they entered the place, the prince walked straight toward the service desk. A large woman was sitting behind it reading a diet magazine.
"Woman I demand a car right now!" Vegeta barked loudly.
The woman didn't take her eyes away from the article she was reading. This made the short Saiya-jin even angrier. This woman is more stubborn than Bulma! How dare she ignore the mighty Prince of the Saiya-jin race. I'm royalty!
"WOMAN!" Vegeta yelled while snatching away the magazine and ripping it to shreds. "I'LL REPEAT THIS ONE LAST TIME! GIVE ME A DAMN CAR!"
The large female sat there shocked, her eyes were wide and filled with utter fear.
"Y-y-yes sir," she quietly stated, "Please follow me..."
That's more like it Vegeta smirked while he pursued her into the lot where the vehicles were kept.
"Please choose a car sir," she said nervously.
"Oooh Vegeta! Get this car! It's COOL looking!" Goku jubilantly said while pointing to it.
The Prince stared at the car. It was a dark jet black Mustang with all the works. The sun's rays hit it perfectly, revealing a stunning shine.
The PERFECT car for the perfect PRINCE. It's painted my favorite color too! He smirked. So that 3rd class and I actually agree on something. That's a first!
"I'll take it! Give me the keys NOW!" Vegeta bellowed.
The woman obediently did what she was told and handed the Saiya-jin the silver keys She then walked toward the small cash register and totaled up his payment.
"That will be..." she began to speak but looked up and saw that the two men had left along with the car!
Oh great! My first day and I'm gonna get fired! she thought and heavily sighed.
-~-~-~--~-~
Ahh! Goku was pulled by the collar of his orange gi and was dragged in the passenger's seat by the prince. Vegeta started the car. In response it roared wildly.
A grin overtook his face I have to tell Bulma to get me one of these!
With that thought, he backed out of the Rental place in a matter of seconds and drove on the main road, they had twenty more miles till they reached the eastern part of Satan City.
"Hey Vegeta, how come I can't drive? I have a license," Goku inquired with a puzzled look on his face.
What kind of stupid question was that!? Vegeta pondered.
"I'm a better driver than you will EVER be and I'm the ONLY one who knows where we're going idiot!" he replied without taking his eyes off from the road.
"HEY! I'm just as good as a driver as you!" Goku said defensively, "Just because you passed your driving test on the first try and I got it on my 10th doesn't mean that you're better than me!"
The Prince smirked remembering the day he got his license. Driving was the easiest thing to learn in his opinion.
"No need to be SO jealous Kakarot, I know you want to be just like ME," he stated smugly, "Who could blame you though, I am THE greatest being alive!"
"You're so full of yourself Vegeta. Tell me what you're better at doing then I am?" Goku curiously asked.
That's an easy question "I'll name a few things then since you asked.. I am a BETTER fighter than you, a BETTER driver, lover, cook, and I'm MORE good looking and intelligent than you'll EVER be! I am MORE disciplined, I can control my emotions unlike YOU, and my hair is better than yours... Plus I'm ROYALTY whereas you're just a third class bakayarou who hit his head when he was young!" Vegeta grinned. Kakarot isn't answering because he knows that I'm right.
What a jerk! I guess Vegeta will NEVER change. I'll just annoy him the best way I know how, by talking! Goku mischievously thought.
"Hey Vegeta!" he said playfully.
The prince just glanced at him for a moment then returned his gaze to the road. What the hell is he up to? He better not be calling me 'radish man' again "What?"
"Nothing" Goku coolly replied. A few moments later, the tall Saiya-jin asked once more.
"Hey Vegeta!"
"WHAT is it!?" he was getting more aggravated each minute that passed by.
"Oh Nothing..." Goku replied nonchalantly.
"Hey Veg--" before Goku could finish his statement, Vegeta had punched him in the jaw knocking the taste out of his mouth.
"That's what you get for trying to distract me from my driving baka!" Vegeta barked.
Goku just sat there, rubbing his chin in pain while staring out the window. Ouch! My mouth hurts! I'll get him back for this! I can still talk!
-~-~-~--~-~
The tall Saiya-jin turned on the radio to break the thick silence that had previously enclosed around them. He had tuned it to a Space Rock station, blasted the volume to the maximum limit, and began to sing the lyrics like a child.
"What the HELL is that noise!? Turn the damn thing off NOW! I can't concentrate!" Vegeta yelled.
Goku just stared at him amazed. "It's just a radio Vegeta! You act like I was trying to kill you or something!"
Vegeta looked at him puzzled and arched his eyebrow, "What the hell is a 'RADIO'?"
Goku started to crack up laughing, "Gosh Vegeta! Even I know what a radio is! Its a thing that plays music."
Damn him! I shouldn't have even asked. He began to grow frustrated,
"How am I suppose to know all of these shitty machines you have here do? I've haven't been on this crappy excuse for a planet as long as you have!"
"Oh, that's right," Goku nervously stated, "sorry 'bout that then."
Vegeta just snorted in response. Ten more miles till we reach the eastern part of Satan City and then the torturing begins. I'll remember to damage his voice box so he can't talk. EVERY time he opens his mouth he proves his insolence!
-~-~-~--~-~
"Are we there yet Vegeta?" the tall Saiya-jin immaturely asked.
"No" was Vegeta's only response.
Seconds past and Goku spoke again.
"Are we there yet?"
"No" Vegeta said holding back some of his rage.
Another few seconds past...
"Are we there yet?"
"NO! Does it look like where there!? NO it doesn't! Don't be so damn impatient. Do you want me to punch you again Kakarot!? I'll gladly do it," he snickered.
"Um..no thanks," Goku said while rubbing his jaw, "I'll be quiet then."
-~-~-~--~-~
Goku began to stare out the window. A sign flashed by telling the speed limit. 85 miles per hour! That will take us forever to get to wherever were going! I'm getting hungrier every second!
"Can't you drive any faster Vegeta?" he whined, "I mean come on! Even YAUMCHA could drive faster than the speed you're going at and that's saying a lot!"
The prince was shocked completely.
"HOW DARE YOU COMPARE THE MIGHTY SAIYA-JIN PRINCE WITH THAT DUMBASS!" Vegeta almost popped a vein. He highly despised Yaumcha for cheating on Bulma before he claimed her as his mate. A minute later he got his composure back.
"So you want me to go fast Kakarot?" he said maliciously while smiling evilly.
The short Saiya-jin slammed his foot into the accelerator pedal and changed the mode from 'normal' to 'turbo'
"Get the hell out of my way fat ass!" Vegeta barked through his window at another driver who was in front of him.
Yikes! Vegeta has LOST it! I guess I shouldn't have said that stuff...Goku thought while glancing at the speed they were going on.
"210 miles per hour! Geez don't you think we should slow down!? You could run over someone!"
"Shut up Kakarot! You wanted to go fast and I'm doing what you said. You should learn to think before you speak baka!" he yelled in response.
Goku was about to reply but something stopped him. There was an ear piercing buzzing noise. What could that be? His jaw dropped at the sight behind him.
"V-v-vegeta..." he stuttered out tensely.
"Spit it out already!" the prince screamed furiously.
"L-l-look behind you!"
If this is another one of Kakarot's pranks, I SWEAR I'm going to kick his sorry ass to another galaxy! He spun around and glanced back; his eyes were now as wide as saucers.
There were about fifteen or so police cars hot on their trails on the ground while another five were in the air.
"KUSO!!!!!!" Vegeta screamed.
