I also want to tell you I'm sorry for the OOCness of Goten in the last chapter... *Sweat drop* Made him sound too smart, lol... Just joking.
Well, without further to do, a new chapter!
Disclaimer: Does it look like I own DBZ to you? Yeha, I wish I did, but... tough luck =P none of us here do.
Chapter 4: Vegeta, A Hero?!
As the four saiyans were heading back to Capsule Corp., they picked up a blood-curdling scream with their long-range hearing.
"What was that?" Goten asked as he searched around for the being that emitted the terrified plea for help.
"Down there!" Trunks cried and pointed to a woman standing on the corner of a street, screaming her head off. The four of them stopped in mid-air and looked at each other questioningly.
"Well, someone has to go help her, don't ya think?" Goku said as he looked at the other three.
"Why isn't Gohan here?" Goten questioned his father with a clueless look on his face.
"I dunno, Goten… it's his job to help and protect these people," Goku replied as he scratched his head in confusion.
"Why don't you do it yourself, Kakarrot? Obviously your brat isn't up to the challenge today," Vegeta said smugly.
"I'm still in your body, remember? Wouldn't that be giving you a bad name if I helped her?" Goku answered with that famous "Son Grin" on his face.
"Feh… you may be right this time but there's no way I'm going to help some… stupid onna," Vegeta muttered and crossed his arms, sticking his nose in the air like a stubborn, selfish prince would.
"The world doesn't revolve around you, Vegeta. I bet it would make you feel good if you at least tried to be a hero once," Goku told him straight up. Vegeta glared at Goku and then looked at Goten and Trunks.
"Can't one of you brats go and rescue this pitiful woman?" he asked hastily. Both of them shook their heads no, trying to hide their deceitful smiles and hold in their laughter. Vegeta sighed angrily and looked back down at the woman who was now in frenzy and begging every person she ran into to help her.
"Fine," Vegeta snorted. "But I'm going to do this once, and only once… and if any of you even so much as say one word about it…" Vegeta's frown curled into a contorted grin as he ran his finger across his neck, signaling their death if they dare mention anything about his valiant deed. Goten and Trunks looked at each other in revulsion and gulped as Goku snickered behind his hand. Vegeta flew down to where the woman was and landed on the ground next to her. She took a step back, looking terrified and pale.
"What is all this fuss about, woman?" Vegeta snapped at her, which scared her even more. He arched his right eyebrow as he waited impatiently for a response. "Well?"
"T-This guy… c-came and s-s-stole my purse," she stuttered. "He was wearing a blue trench coat and a brown hat but I couldn't make out anything other than that." Vegeta looked up and down the street but saw no one with the description of this man.
"Which way did he go?" Vegeta questioned the woman, a bit too sweetly for someone like him if you ask me. The woman pointed to her left with a shaky hand and Vegeta took off in that direction.
"I can't believe I'm doing this…" Vegeta thought distastefully to himself. He searched up and down the streets for the man as he continued to walk rather than fly. When he came to a busy intersection he stopped and looked around some more when a piece of blue clothing caught his eye. Vegeta turned to see a man in a blue trench coat and brown hat, like the woman had said, and grabbed him by the collar of his coat.
"I think you have something that belongs to a woman you stole from," Vegeta hissed in his ear. The man turned around in surprise, expecting to see a policeman perhaps rather than, well… Vegeta. The man slipped out of his grasp but Vegeta grabbed his collar again, yanking him backwards as he did.
"Hand it over," Vegeta demanded as the thief stared back at him. He twisted around quickly and sent his fist flying into Vegeta's face but was shocked to find that Vegeta, being a saiyan and all, didn't feel it one bit. Vegeta smirked and returned his invite with a punch of his own, knocking the man out cold. Sure, there were a lot of people around to witness this and they might have taken it the wrong way if the woman didn't come down the street shrieking in joy. Vegeta reached into the man's coat pocket and pulled out the woman's purse, then dropped the man onto the sidewalk.
"Thank you! Oh, thank you so much!" the woman said cheerfully, and took her purse from Vegeta. "May I ask of your name?" Vegeta hesitated for a moment and then replied, "My name is Veg- I mean Kaka- I mean, Goku." He sweat dropped and repeated, "My name is Goku."
"Well, Goku. Thank you again. I'll never forget this," she said flirtatiously with a smile and pecked him on the cheek. Vegeta turned ten different shades of red as everyone around them clapped and "awww"ed. He glowered but then smiled a little, not in that evil way of his, as he took off into the air and returned to where the three were waiting patiently. As soon as he came into view, Goku smirked, for he had been watching Vegeta this whole time.
"Well, well…" Goku started to say, his smirk widening into a grin. "That wasn't so bad, now was it?" Vegeta grunted in reply and looked from Goku to the two demi-saiyans, who stared back at him enviously.
"I'm never doing anything like that again…ever," Vegeta mumbled as they continued their journey back to Capsule Corp.
Meanwhile, Bulma was watching TV, flipping through the channels every two seconds, a look of boredom on her face. She passed the news channel but then paused and went back when she saw a woman talking about how someone had stolen her purse.
"So, what was the name of this courageous man who came to your rescue?" a news reporter asked the woman, now holding the microphone in front of her face.
"He said his name was Goku, but he didn't look like he was quite sure of it," the woman replied. Bulma watched with interest at the mention of Goku's name, wondering how this could have happened just recently if they went home an hour ago.
The news reporter continued to talk as there was a replay shown of Vegeta getting the woman's purse back.
"That's Goku?" Bulma questioned herself, now staring at the TV wide-eyed and more curious than ever. "I know Goku wouldn't just punch somebody like that… and he never smirks like that either…hm, something fishy is going on… very fishy." She turned the TV off and sighed as she closed her eyes and rubbed her temples, thinking either she was working too hard or something wasn't right.
Just then, the four saiyans entered the room, trying not to make too much noise as they did but they immediately caught Bulma's attention.
"What are you two doing back here? I thought you went home," she asked them.
"We, uhh… forgot to take something with us," Goku said as casually put his hand behind his head and laughed. Bulma gawked at Goku, thinking she was dreaming for what she just heard and saw ((Goku is still in Vegeta's body, remember? yeah…)).
"Way to go, clown," Vegeta muttered under his breath and sighed.
"OK, what's going on here?" Bulma asked as she stood up and placed her hands on her hips. The four of them looked at each other worriedly, looking for an explanation suited for their situation.
"Well, you see… we wanted to know how your new machine worked so we asked dad and Goku if they wanted to try it out and so they did but then Goten pushed the wrong button and now dad is in Goku's body and Goku is in dad's body and we tried to put the machine in reverse without anyone else noticing so we were coming back over here when this woman was in trouble so dad helped her because he didn't want to look bad if Goku did it while he was in his body and Gohan never showed up and after we did that we came back so we could switch them back," Trunks blurted out without taking a single breath. Vegeta glared at Trunks, flabbergasted by his confession.
"Well, right now we need to get you two back to normal, and after that…" Bulma told them in a furious tone and then continued, "We'll see how we can punish you all." She smirked as Vegeta, Goten, and Trunks hung their head in shame but Goku just blinked in puzzlement.
"What do you mean by 'we'll'?" Goku asked, almost too afraid to hear the answer.
"Chi Chi needs to know about this little mix up and I'll leave it up to her on how to punish you and Goten," Bulma replied as she walked over to them. She then grabbed Trunks and Vegeta by their ears and hauled them off to her lab.
"OWWWW! Mom, stop! You're hurting me!" Trunks yelped but Bulma made no attention to his cries of pain. It was hard to believe that such superior warriors as these saiyans could be ruled over by a mere human being, especially a woman.
"GOKU! GOTEN! Come on!" Bulma hollered at them and they quickly followed after her.
"Stupid…onna…" Vegeta mumbled to himself as he was yanked farther down the hall.
End of chapter 4! Will Bulma be able to switch them back or will Goten just accidentally happen to find another button? Will Goku keep his title as hero or should he be looking out for the new one, Vegeta? How will these four saiyans be able to survive their cruel fates which Bulma and Chi Chi will set them up to? Tune in next time on "The Switch-A-Roo"! Next chapter: The Saiyans Meet Their Doom
