Quote of the Week: -from dbz ep 278 "Buu Invades!! The Final Battle on Kaio-Shin's World"
{Kakarrotto:} But Chi-Chi's not that hot...and she'd kill me.
Chuey's Corner:
Chuquita: Hello and welcome to another story by yours truely. However this story is going to be different than the norm. Why,
you ask?
Vegeta: (grinning and nodding) Yes Chu, tell them why.
Chuquita: ... (sweatdrops at Veggie) (turns back to audiance) This story is a special one because it is the infamous story
number 5! In this story, as the obvious title points out, is one in which Veggie wins.
Vegeta: (hoots) WOO-HOO!
Goku: (looks up at the Q.O.T.W) Hey Chu-sama, why am I quoted up there as "Kakarrotto" instead of "Goku"?
Chuquita: Hmm? OH! Since this is going to be Veggie's little fic "special", he gets to choose the quotes of the week.
Goku: So orignally, from wherever that quote is from, it said "Goku" in the little box.
Chuquita: (nods) Yeah, that's pretty much right.
Goku: (glances over at Veggie)
Vegeta: (is grinning so wide he looks like his cheeks are about to fall off)
Goku: (turns back to Chu with a look of panic and fear on his face) (nervous) Do--do you really think it's alright giving
little Veggie this much power. I mean, the ego and the pride and the--
Chuquita: Listen, this is Veggie's one chance to shine and come out ontop in one of my fics. Do you really wanna take it away
from him?
Kakarrotto: (frowns) No, I guess not. (freezes in place) [glances over at his name in the name-box] (screams) VEGGIE!!!
Vegeta: (cheerfully) Yes, Kakarrotto-chan?
Kakarrotto: (flatly) Veggie change my name back.
Vegeta: What name?
Kakarrotto: In the name box! You switched it on me!!
Vegeta: (innocently) I don't see anything wrong with the fact that your rightful name is now in the box, Kakay.
Kakay: (sighs) Veggie I just want you to put it back to Go-- (sweatdrops at the name in his namebox) --AWW COME ON VEGGIE!
You wanna be that way then HERE!
Veggie: ... (sweatdrops) Alright, alright. You big baby.
Goku: (smiles) Thank you Veggie.
Vegeta: Don't mention it. (snorts) I don't know WHY you prefer that adoptive Earth name of yours. Your saiyajin name is MUCH
BETTER. It has a very important meaning to it as a matter of fact.
Chuquita: (groans) Oh no, Son, now you've got him going.
Goku: Sorry Chu.
Vegeta: Actually the word Kakarrotto is taken from the name of a legendary utopian-ish paradise city on Bejito-sei.
Supposedly the land itself was a hidden treasure. In fact it WAS a hidden treasure because nobody ever found it. At least not
from what the royal family had on file anyway. The size of the cattle and food alone in Kakarrotto was so enormous that one
beast alone was enough to feed 10 of us and keep our bellies full or at least a month. Supposedly gold hung from the trees
and the water from the river was so pure that while you were in battle with it in your system it would automatically and
instantaneously heal any cuts or bruises given to you by your opponent.
Goku: (w/big sparkily eyes) Oh wow Veggie that is beautiful!
Vegeta: (sweatdrops) (turns away, glowing bright red) Uhh, yeah, right. (shakes his head, causing the redness to leave)
(glances back at Son to see he's still staring at Veggie w/big sparkily eyes)
Goku: Mmm...
Vegeta: (embarassed) DON'T LOOK AT ME LIKE THAT!! _I'M_ NOT THE ONE WHO NAMED YOU! YOUR MOM DID THAT!!!
Goku: (squeaks out) Aww, really? [looks upward] Thank you Mommy! Wherever you are!
[Chu and Veggie sweatdrop]
Goku: Is the city of Kakarrotto PRETTY, little Veggie?
Vegeta: HOW WOULD I KNOW! (grumbles) I've never been there.
Goku: (musing) I bet it's the most beautiful place in the whole UNIVERSE! After all it's named after me! (big doofy grin)
Vegeta: Ugh, Kakarrotto! They didn't name the legendary saiyajin paradise AFTER YOU! They named YOU after IT!!
Goku: (disappointed) ...oh.
Chuquita: [pats Son on the back] Aw, cheer up Son-kun! It's time to introduce the story!
Goku: Really?
Vegeta: (grinning widely) REALLY?
Goku: (sweatdrops) Here we go again.
Chuquita: Story #5 is a fic I've had sitting in the back of my mind and left to rot for the longest time--
Vegeta: (evil smirk in Son's direction) --but, like a fine wine it becomes increasingly delicious over the years. Like us
saiyajins for example.
Chuquita: (slightly annoyed) ...Vedge?
Vegeta: (snorts) Alright alright I get it, your story, you do the explanation for it. Yeah yeah...
Chuquita: Anyways, story #5 contains several flashbacks, a couple characters daydreams, time travel, and enough future stuff
to make Chi-Chi nearly lose her sanity. In short, it's what happens to everyone in the future if Veggie somehow was able to
'win' his "peasant".
Vegeta: (smirks) You'll never believe how I did it.
Chuquita: I know it's so obvious it's almost impossible to figure out that you didn't realize this one before.
Goku: (pale) How DOES Veggie do it?
Chuquita: (happy smiles) You'll just have to read on and see Son-san! (to audiance) By the way this will _NOT_ be a yaoi.
(to Son & Veggie) Some people suggested I make it one back when we had the Poll in the last story as to whether this
fic should be written or not. In fact I can name at least 4 of the regulars who review my fics who would love to see that
happen. (grins) But it's not!
Vegeta: (cocks an eyebrow) That was kinda cold, don't you think?
Chuquita: (skeptic) Would you LIKE IT if I were to do one of those, Vedge?
Vegeta: (glances over at Goku)
Goku: (grins stupidly at him)
Vegeta: (to Chu) No.
Chuquita: (clasps her hands together) Well there ya go! And here's the summary!
Summary: Chi-Chi and Veggie make a bet on Goku's loyalty. The ouji says that by the time another century has past and
Chi-Chi has already gotten old and been buried he would have Son-San wrapped around his little finger, seeing as they
saiyajins with their longer life-spans and slow aging process will probably live way after the rest of the Z senshi pass on.
Chi-Chi mocks him and tells Veggie that her Go-chan loves her too much to give in to his ouji-obsessiveness. Goku is unsure
if either of them is right and a slightly worried Chi-Chi decides to take Mirai's time machine for a spin and find out. What
awaits her in the future is a fate worse than anything she possibly could have imagined for Goku. What is this fate? Will
she be able to change the future or her present to stop these events from occuring? Heck, if Mirai Trunks can do it so can
Chi-Chi...right?
Vegeta: (evil laugh) Heh-heh, WRONG!
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) Vedge...
Vegeta: Hey Kakay, put this on will ya? [holds out the little hat to the servant-maid costume he made for Son a while back]
Goku: (shakes his head wildly) Oh NO! No no no no no no NO VEGGIE!
Vegeta: [plops the servant-maid hat ontop of Goku's head] (happily) There! Don't you look Kakawaii!
Chuquita: (?) "Kakawaii"?
Vegeta: Yes, it's like kawaii, only with another Ka. See he's Kakarrotto and that's where I got it from. (grins) Heh-heh, I
believe I've just coined a new phrase! Good for me!
Goku: (looks up at his little hat and sweatdrops) (groans) Let's just start the fic already.
Chuquita: You got it Son!
*****************************************************************************************************************************
" Mrs. Son, someone's here to see you. " the doctor poked his head in room 429, then backed up as a familiar figure
entered the room, a big friendly smile on his face.
" Hello Chi-chan! " Goku said happily, holding a bouquet of flowers in his hands. He walked over to the bed she was
laying in, " I broughtcha some flowers. " he grinned, holding them out.
" Thank you Go-chan, that's so sweet of you. " Chi-Chi smiled weakly. Here she was in her 80's, lying in a hospital
bed while Goku stood there beside the bed looking the same way he had since before Goten was born, ::What irony!:: she
thought, ::He doesn't look a day over 32 at least:: even their children were showing more signs of aging than Goku was. All
those times he had been off fighting Freezer, those two seemingly infinite long periods when he was in the 'other world'; all
that time training to fight Cell and here she was, now finally able to have some decent time with him only to probably end up
in 'other world' herself. Chi-Chi smirked, ::What utter irony!::
" The doctors said you're not allowed to have any chocolates but look what I've got! " Goku grinned impishly as he
pulled out a hersey's kiss from his gi pocket, " You better eat it quick before somebody comes in here and kicks me out for
bringing you candy. "
Chi-Chi took the chocolate from him and slowly unwrapped it, " I think I may just do that, Go-chan. " she smiled
warmly.
" Yes, thata boy, "Go-chan". Let's hurry Onna along to her final resting place among the rats and worms of this
planet. " a familiar voice snickered from the doorway.
Chi-Chi froze onsight, then removed the candy from the inside of her mouth, wrapped it back up, and placed it under
her pillow, " Ouji. " an unchanging spark of rage re-flickered in her eyes as the figure entered the hospital room.
" HAHAHA! Will you get a look at yourself, Onna? " Vegeta laughed. The ouji was also perpetually unaging. He also
had not physically changed over the years with the exception of getting stronger. He was still short, had the same haircut he
had when she first met him, same type of gloves, boots, and training outfit, " I WISH I had a mirror just so I could let you
see how horribly disfigured you've become. "
Chi-Chi growled at him.
Vegeta turned to Goku, " Isn't it a shame how quickly these EARTH-PEOPLE age, Kakay? One minute they're there. The
next they're ash, in a box underground, or a human-popsicle. Yep. Sad sad thing. "
" Why YOU-- " Chi-Chi painfully sat up and reached out to grab Vegeta by the neck to choke him, only to find it was
even hard for her to keep her grip around the ouji's neck than to even squeeze.
" You're going to exhaust yourself if you keep THAT up, Onna. " Vegeta snickered, pulling away, " Wouldn't want to go
TOO early now, would we? "
" WAIT'LL I GET MY HANDS ON YOU OUJI I'LL RIP THAT UGLY HEAD RIGHT OFF YOU'RE BODY I'LL--I'LL--OHHHHH... " Chi-Chi
moaned in pain.
" AHH! CHI-CHAN! " Goku gasped, " Veggie don't get Chi-chan too excited! " he patted Chi-Chi's wrist, " She needs her
rest, right Chi-chan? " he said comfortingly.
" Aww, Goku. " Chi-Chi rubbed her cheek against his hand.
" My my, would you look at how WRINKLY Onna's cheeks have gotten. " Vegeta smirked. Chi-Chi sent him a death-glare,
" While _I_ on the other hand still have the same soft, smooth perfect skin I was born with. " he leaned sideways towards
Goku, " Care to rub MY cheek, Kakay-chan? "
" *SLAP*! " Chi-Chi violently sent her hand slapping across the ouji's face, " YOU LEAVE HIM ALONE YOU HEAR ME! " she
shouted, then gasped for breath and leaned her head back onto the pillow.
" Of course I hear you. " Vegeta chuckled, " Doesn't mean I have to listen. " he said, then gave the larger saiyajin
a hug from behind.
" ... " Goku paused and glanced down at the two white gloves around his waist, " VEGGIE HUGS! " he grinned, then
spun Vegeta around and squeezed him tightly, " OOOOoooOOOOoOOoOOOoh!! "
" *Ack*! " Vegeta yelped, unable to breathe, " Kaka...rrotto...can't...breathe... "
" Hmm? " Goku blinked, then dropped him, " Sorry little buddy! " he said cheerfully.
Vegeta examined the patient who was still trying to recuperate from the rush of energy she had used to slap the ouji,
" You know what Kakarrotto-chan. I give our little visit about 3 more minutes and then we'll take our leave. "
" He came here *huff* with you? " Chi-Chi weakly asked Goku.
" Come with me? " Goku stared at her, confused. He grinned, " Silly Chi-chan! Veggie drove me here in his limo! " he
pointed to the window, " It's parked outside! "
Chi-Chi's eyes widened as she tilted her head in Vegeta's direction. The ouji smile evilly at her and waved.
" You let HIM take you here! " she said to Goku, nervous, " Wha, what about Gohan? Or Goten? I'm sure they would've
taken you, you you don't need the Ouji. "
" Gohan's off saving the rainforest somewhere and Goten's busy having another mid-life crisis. " Goku replied,
shrugging.
" Heh, Kaka-spawn #2 is off testing out his brand-new motorcycle somewhere along the west coast. " Vegeta added.
" We're not sure where, but the last time he called he was in a mini-mall. " Goku nodded. He smiled, " Veggie's been
staying over at our house since you, you know, got sick. "
" Yes, " Vegeta continued, then reached for his back, " your mattress is much too hard for my liking though, Onna. "
" YOU'VE BEEN SLEEPING IN _MY_ BED!!! " Chi-Chi shrieked. She turned to Goku, " YOU'VE BEEN LETTING HIM SLEEP IN MY
BED!!! "
" Well, not really. " Goku put his hand behind his head, " I've been keeping little Veggie company at night so he's
oh-kay in the new surroundings and all. "
Chi-Chi's jaw dropped to the floor, " WHAT?!!! "
" Calm down Chi-Chi. " Goku chuckled, " It's only til you get better and come back home. " he grinned, " Then we can
go back to normal and I can catch us yummy food and you can cook it and we'll eat it together! And I'll even help you get out
the Veggie-smell that's accumulated in your room over the past several months. It'll be fun! "
" Fun... " Chi-Chi murmured, her eyes welling up with tears, " Oh Goku, I'm not sure if I'll be able to come back
home. I'm not sure we'll be able to get back to normal. "
" Why not Chi-chan? " Goku cocked his head sideways, curiously.
" Oh Go-chan it hurts so much, the pain; I can hardly move. " she felt the tears rolling down her cheeks.
" Oh-kay, how's this, 'rest in piece you ugly old tyrannical witch'. " Vegeta cheerfully read off a little notepad he
had been scribbling things down on.
" VEGGIE! THAT'S TERRIBLE! " Goku gasped, disgusted.
" Alright, you can pick out what you want to put on the rock. I don't care. " Vegeta smirked.
" Ouji. "
" Hmm? " Vegeta glanced over at Chi-Chi.
" I'd like to talk to Goku alone, Ouji. " Chi-Chi said narrowing her eyes at him.
" And I'd like to take Kakay on a trip to the Caribbean, but you don't see ME whining about it. " Vegeta shrugged.
" Veggie can you please go stand in the hallway for a lil bit and I'll meet you there. " Goku asked.
The ouji smiled, " Whatever YOU say, Kakay. " he did an overdramatic bow, then left. Goku giggled at the smaller
saiyajin.
" Veggie so cute. " Goku clapped for him, then turned back to Chi-Chi, " Hmm? " he smiled.
" I can't believe this. I'm not even dead yet and he's already using MY ROOM as his own personal little Ouji
hangout! " Chi-Chi grumbled, " I should've killed him when I had the chance! "
" Chi-chan NO! You don't wanna kill Veggie! " Goku gasped, " Look out UTTERLY ADORABLE little Veggie is! " he pointed
to Vegeta in the doorway who was watching the larger saiyajin with fake big sparkily eyes, " If I wasn't so busy giving you
support to help you get better again I'd be squeezin little Veggie's brains out right now... " Goku murmured, almost in a
trance-like state.
" GOKU SNAP OUT OF IT! " Chi-Chi exclaimed. The larger saiyajin instantly turned towards her, " Listen! After I leave
I want you to stay as FAR AWAY from that little monster as POSSIBLE! Can you do that for me? " she asked, beggingly.
" Leaving? " Goku said, then laughed, " Aww Chi-chan, you're not goin anywhere. "
Chi-Chi cocked her head towards the doorway to see Vegeta grinning evilly at her, whistling the 'rest in peace' tune.
She turned back to the smiling yet slightly confused Goku with her eyes almost bulging out of their sockets, " Oh my God he's
going to come in this room and steal you away from me the moment I leave you. " she gulped, her vision blurring, " Ohhhh... "
she groaned in pain.
" Chi-chan? Chi-chan what's going on? What're you doin! STOP THAT! " Goku said in a panicky voice as Chi-Chi felt her
senses begin to dull. The blurry smirking figure in the doorway was slowly walking into the room, snickering to himself.
" I don't...want to...leave you... " she focused vision on the now even blurrier figure looking over her, " I don't
want you to leave me, Goku... "
" Aww, I won't leave just yet Chi-chan. I promise! In fact, I'll stay until visiting hours are over if it's oh-kay
with you! " he said cheerfully, then watched as Chi-Chi pulled her arm back and closed her eyes, " Chi-chan? " he blinked,
" Chi-chan wake up, I was talking to you. " Goku pouted at the sudden interuption, then froze. The ki infront of him had just
disappeared completely, " Chi-chan? CHI-CHAN!! " he shook her, " CHI-CHAN SAY SOMETHING TO ME! LOOKIT ME!! COME ON CHI-CHAN
JUST DO SOMETHING!!! " Goku shouted in fright, then started to sob loudly, " Chi-chaAAAn! CHI-CHAN DON'T LEAVE! I DON'T WANT
YOU TO LEAVE! I DON'T WANNA BE ALONE!!! " he wailed, staring at her.
" You're not alone. " a small hand patted him on the shoulder, " I'm still here, Kakay. " Vegeta smirked. Goku looked
over his shoulder at the short ouji, then grabbed onto him tightly and began to cry into Vegeta's shoulder.
" VEGGIEVEGGIE CHI-CHAN'S GONE!! " Goku held on tighter, " I don't want her to go... "
" Well don't you worry Kakarrotto-chan. I won't leave you like Onna did. " Vegeta hugged back, " In fact, I'll still
be here with you for a very long time to come. How do you like that? "
" ... "
" Kakay? "
" ...Veggie? " Goku said after a very long pause, " Can I come home with you to Capsule Corp? " he said in a quiet
voice, sniffling.
" Sure you can, Kakarrotto. " Vegeta said, then flashed a V for victory sign at Chi-Chi. He led Goku out of the room,
still holding one arm over the larger saiyajin's shoulder, " I'll even have a guest room fixed up for you. You won't have to
worry about anything ever again. " he said comfortingly, then cocked his head over to where Chi-Chi was laying for one final
glance, " Isn't that right, Onna? "
50 years earlier... AKA The Present...
" YAHHH!! "
" *SMASH*! "
" HAHA! Looks like you've missed me again, Onna! " Vegeta laughed maniacally as he raced around the Son home, Chi-Chi
chasing after him with a very large ax and accidentally chopping several pieces of furniture in half while doing so.
" YOU GIVE THOSE BACK RIGHT NOW AND I PROMISE I'LL KILL YOU QUICKLY! " she screeched to halt and cornered the ouji.
Vegeta just grinned in response and waved a large pair of boxers in the air.
" They'd make a lovely hat, don't you think? " he snickered, waving them above his head.
" ERRR--NAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!! " Chi-Chi swung the ax only to have Vegeta teleport out of the way and cause her to
instead make a huge dent in the kitchen wall.
Meanwhile Goku was sitting at the kitchen table stuffing his face with a very large sandwich, oblivious to the
goings-on around him. Chi-Chi's ax came flying down throught the table, just missing Vegeta by mere inches. She stood on the
table and ripped the ax back out, then went off chasing him again.
" Hey Veggie can you pass me the mayo? " Goku asked happily, then sweatdropped as a pair of boxers fell ontop of his
head. Goku peeled the underwear off and looked at it, " Hey, these look just like the ones I put on this morning-- " he
paused, then stuck his hand into the back of his gi pants to find the aforementioned boxers now missing. Goku stared
wide-eyed at the pair in his hands, " AAH!! VEGGIE HOW'D YOU DO THAT!!! "
" ... "
" Veggie? " Goku looked around the room to see both Vegeta and Chi-Chi had disappeared from the kitchen. He shrugged,
downed the rest of his sub in one gulp, and left in search of them.
" DOES NOT! "
" DOES TOO! "
" DOES NOT! "
" DOES TOO! "
Goku peered around the side corner of the wall leading into the living room to see Vegeta and Chi-Chi sending
death-glares at each other. He sweatdropped.
" Grr... " Vegeta growled, then paused to see Goku out of the corner of his eye, " Kakay! There you are! " Vegeta
said happily. Chi-Chi narrowed her eyes at the ouji, " Just the peasant I wanted to see! "
Goku grinned widely at the tone of Vegeta's voice, " Little Veggie is happy to see me? "
" Of course I am! I'm you little buddy. I love you. " Vegeta said attempting to persuade Goku to come into the room.
" Veggie LOVES me? " Goku's eyes widened until they were two big black sparkling blobs. Vegeta gulped and backed up.
" Uh, yeah, heh-heh. Of course I do--OOF!! " Vegeta yelped to find Goku now squeezing the ouji tightly against him.
" AWW MY LITTLE VEGGIE SAYS HE LOVES ME VEGGIE THAT'S SO SWEET OF YOU!! " Goku squealed. Vegeta gasped for air.
" Kaka....need...oxygen...to breathe... " Vegeta cried out as he slipped himself out of the hug and felt his chest
for any broken ribs due to the intensity of Goku's hug. He grumbled to himself, then glanced up at the larger saiyajin, who
was still baby-eyeing him, " Heh-heh..heh.. " Vegeta's face glowed bright red, " Kah-keeee... " he paused, then shook the
redness from his face, " Kakarrotto, I have a question to ask you. "
" Ask away little Veggie! " Goku said, saluting him.
" Kakarrotto, once Onna passes away to the great beyond, will you join me in a special saiyajin ritual and then come
to live with me on my expensive, plush, high-tech satellite where we will sail across the universe together? " Vegeta asked
sneakily.
" ...what expensive, plush, high-tech satellite? " Goku cocked an eyebrow, confused.
" Well...I haven't exactly built it yet...but once I have, will you join me? " Vegeta grinned cheesily.
" I dunno Veggie, I don't think I could just leave Chi-chan at home while I go on some Ad-Veggietures in outer
space. " Goku shook his head uneasily.
" "Ad-Veggietures"? " Chi-Chi repeated in disgust.
" You won't HAVE to worry about Onna, Kakarrotto! " Vegeta patted him on the shoulder, " She'll be DEAD! "
Goku gasped, " CHI-CHAN'S DYING!! " he turned to Chi-Chi, who just rolled her eyes as she leaned against her ax.
" Not yet but she will be! " Vegeta said cheerfully.
Goku glanced over at Chi-Chi w/big teary eyes, " Chi-chan's gonna LEAVE me? "
" Well, eventually, yes. But think of how WONDERFUL it will be when she's gone! " Vegeta exclaimed. Chi-Chi
face-faulted, " Why you can come live with ME! Wouldn't you love to be your little Veggie's housemate? " he smirked.
The larger saiyajin stared down at him, " Living with Veggie in the future?..... "
:::" I LOVE watching TV in anti-gravity! Don't you little Veggie! " Goku grinned as he sat in the air, indian-style.
The TV along with the rest of the futuristic-looking furniture was also floating in mid-air.
" It's fun AND you can swim in it! " Vegeta grinned, wearing a little blue gi which looked like a counterpart to
Goku's orange one and 'swimming' through the air above Goku.
Goku pulled out a small capsule labeled 'fish', " Hey little buddy! Got any water? " he called out. Vegeta teleported
to the kitchen, then swam back into the living room where he dumped a bucket of water over Goku's head along with the caspule
. The capsule shook, then in a puff of smoke a large fish appeared in it's place. Goku grabbed it with his soggy hands before
the fish could float away and took a big 'ol bite out of it, " I LOVE THE FUTURE!! ":::
" YEAH! " Goku hooted, " THAT'D BE THE COOLEST THING _EVER_!!! "
" What planet are you living on? " Chi-Chi muttered.
" Planet Eeearrrtth. " Goku slurred the last word on purpose, then giggled, " Heeheehee! "
" You have an...interesting concept of me in your head, you know that Kakarrotto? " Vegeta cocked an eyebrow.
" I WANNA GO TO THE FUTURE WITH VEGGIE RIGHT NOW! " Goku grinned.
" Really? " Vegeta rubbed his hands together evilly. He turned to Chi-Chi and pointed at her, " HA! "
" Oh brother. " Chi-Chi grumbled. She looked up at the larger saiyajin, " Listen Goku! That's not what the future
will be like at all! First of all you're MUCH TOO SMART to be taken in by any of that little Ouji's phoney charms and second
if he was able to get you alone he'd tie you up and enslave you and make you do horrible disgusting ouji-things!! "
" Ha--horrible? " Goku's eyes widened.
" Yes, VERY horrible! " Chi-Chi nodded.
:::" AND THAT AND THAT AND THAT AND THAT! YOU FORGOT TO CLEAN THAT ONE!! " the voice of the small figure sitting at
an insanely large throne yelled at Goku as he quickly bounced around the room cleaning the tiles on the floor. The larger
saiyajin had handcuffs and a ball and chain around his left leg along with a rope around his waist that lead up to the throne
. His gi was tattered and torn and he looked like he hadn't eaten in weeks. Goku finished and sighed deeply; very tired.
" BEAUTIFUL, Kakarrotto! Perfectly exquisite! " Vegeta grinned, clapping for him. Goku fell to the floor, pooped.
" ... "
" ... "
" Now come up here and delight me! "
The peasants eyes nearly popped out of his head, " You're kidding, right? " he choked out.
" I'm afraid not, Kakarrotto. " Vegeta shook his head, " 9pm, right on the button. " he smirked, " I schedule these
things for a reason you know. Wouldn't want you skipping out on me. "
" But, I'm so tired, I worked cleaning the whole Capsule Corp building all day! I wanna sleep. " Goku pouted.
" And you will, AFTER you get up here. " the ouji nodded, " AND IF YOU DON'T GET UP HERE RIGHT NOW I'LL PULL OUT THE
WHIP! "
" YES MR. OUJISAMA! " Goku yelped, " I'M COMING I'M COMING PLEASE DON'T WHIP ME AGAIN!! ":::
" Hmmph! " Vegeta snorted at Chi-Chi, insulted, " I would never whip you, would I Kakay? "
Goku stared at him, wide-eyed, " I think I liked my version better, little Veggie. "
" Yes, and the future WILL be much like your version of it, Kakay. " Vegeta smiled, then shook his head at Chi-Chi,
still physically sickened, " Hit my peasant with a whip! How SICK! "
" GOKU! " Chi-Chi shouted, " If I'm not here to protect you he's going to maniupulate you at his own will! You don't
want that Ouji to use you, DO YOU!? "
" I don't wanna clean any floors Veggie. " Goku gulped, backing up.
" I'm not going to make you clean anything Kakay. Bulma's cleaning-bots will do that. " Vegeta walked towards him,
" In fact, you won't have to answer to anybody. It'll be just you and me, having fun. You like having fun, don't you Kakay? "
" Fun with Veggie? " Goku's face lit up, then he glanced over at Chi-Chi who was shaking her head and hands no in a
frantic fashion, " Uhh, on second thought-- " he said uneasily, " --but then, Veggie would NEVER---or would he-- "
" YES HE WOULD!! " Chi-Chi screamed.
" HA! BRAVE WORDS COMING FROM AN ONNA WHO ORDERS KAKARROTTO AROUND LIKE SHE'S HIS OVERLORD!!! " Vegeta snapped, then
calmed down, smirking evilly, " I thought marriage was supposed to be an equal partnership to you earthlings, however it
seems that you're quite delusional of the fact that _I_ HAVE LEGAL RULE OVER KAKARROTTO AND YOU ARE NOTHING MORE THAN A WITCH
WHO THINKS SHE CAN ABUSE HER OWN POWER JUST TO KEEP KAKARROTTO FROM ME! Well it's not going to be that way for too long. You
just wait I'll concoct a plot so devious it'll expose you for the true creature you are! Miss I'm-going-to-use-Kakarrotto-for
-mating-purposes-only-so-I-can-create-a-super-strong-genius-son-who-will-make-me-lots-of-money-so-I-can-get-filthy-stinkin-
-rich!!! " Vegeta snarled at Chi-Chi.
" Is that TRUE, Chi-chan? " Goku sniffled.
" NO! OF COURSE IT'S NOT TRUE! I love you Goku. " Chi-Chi pleaded, " I MIGHT have said something at the tournament
when I was fighting that because of your strength you were a good choice, but it's more than that! But you agreed didn't you!
We got married 2 hours later! "
" HA! Kakarrotto only agreed because he had no idea what was going on, as usual. " Vegeta snorted, " Tell her,
Kakay! " he elbowed Goku in the side.
" Umm, well, I remember Chi-chan yelling at me that I promised to marry her so I thought to myself "I can't just
break a promise even if I don't remember making it" so I did. " Goku said, then smiled.
Chi-Chi's jaw dropped to the floor.
" You mean if it had been the OUJI fighting you there back at the 23rd tournament telling you you had promised to be
his "servant-maid" for the rest of your life you would've said yes all the same!!? " Chi-Chi gawked.
Goku shrugged, " Well, yeah I guess I would've. "
" Ohhh.... " Chi-Chi sweatdropped.
" 'course there's no way that could've happened to begin with! It would've still been 6 years till I met my little
Veggie! " Goku grinned down at the ouji standing next to him.
" But is it true? "
Chi-Chi glanced down at the small, snickering ouji, " Is WHAT true? " she narrowed her eyes.
" Is it true that you only used Kakarrotto for his physical strength, the money he earned by winning the tournament,
and for his ability to deliver you with the organism needed to spawn super-smart half-kaka-ed hybrids? " Vegeta accused her.
" WHAT! THAT'S INSANE! " Chi-Chi screamed.
" HA! PROVE IT! " Vegeta retorted.
" PROVE _WHAT_? " she snarled.
" PROVE that without your existance in Kakarrotto's every day life that he wouldn't be drawn into my exotic saiyajin
lifestyle. PROVE that he loves you more then ME. " the ouji dared.
" I DON'T HAVE TO PROVE I KNOW! "
" OH YEAH? "
" YEAH! "
" YEAH? "
" YEAH!!! "
" WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!! "
Both Chi-Chi and Vegeta froze and turned towards a wailing Goku who was sitting on the floor between them, crying
loudly and confused.
" GOKU! " Chi-Chi yelled, still fuming from her argument with the ouji.
" Chi-chan?... " Goku looked up at her with tears in his eyes.
" Goku, who do you love more! Me, you're loving wife of many many years who has bared your CHILDREN, or this CREATURE
here who says he's your prince. " she signaled to Vegeta, who waved to Goku. Goku smiled and waved back. Chi-Chi
sweatdropped, " STOP THAT!! " she snapped.
" Yes Chi-chan. " Goku said meekly.
" Goku! Who do you love the most! ME OR OUJI! "
" Uhh, I, I dunno... " Goku said nervously, glancing back and forth between the two, " I, err, love you both? "
Chi-Chi slapped herself on the forehead, " Goku, if I were to die right now would you disobey me and join that Ouji
in a life of sick, horrific ouji-things!! "
Goku cocked his head at the blank look on Vegeta's face and grinned, " Heeheehee.....uhhh, " he bit his lip and
looked back at Chi-Chi, " I....don't know...who I'd listen to, Chi-chan...I mean..OHHH!! THIS IS SO HARD! " Goku put one
hand on either side of his head and groaned, " IT'S NOT FAIR!!! "
Chi-Chi sighed, " Oh well, that's that. " she perked up, " Now get outta my house Ouji before I call the cops! "
" But we don't know Kakay's answer yet. " Vegeta chuckled, " I suppose you can't really tell what his little
kaka-heart is thinking; being torn between two great loves and all... "
" YOU ARE NOT GREAT NOR ARE YOU HIS "LOVE"!!! " Chi-Chi roared.
" There IS one way to find out what choice Kakay is going to make though... " Vegeta trailed off innocently.
Chi-Chi cocked an eyebrow at him, " Really? And what would that be? "
" Mirai's time machine. Take it well into the future, say, oh, 100 years or so and we'll all find out who the offical
owner of Kakay's sweet, pure kaka-heart happens to be. " Vegeta rattled off.
" HA! YOU'RE ON OUJI! " Chi-Chi laughed in his face, " If there's one thing Goku and I share it's a loyalty to each
other! I never went after anyone while he was dead and I know he won't turn on me! "
" Maybe he was never on your side to begin with. "
" ... "
" ... "
" Don't test me, Ouji. " Chi-Chi said flatly, pointing at him.
" Hmmph. " Vegeta snickered, then teleported away and re-teleported back in with the time machine in tow, " Well,
here she is. " he patted it.
" Where's Mirai? " Chi-Chi asked.
" Doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo. " Mirai whistled as he climbed down the ladder, then lept off, ready to hop into his
time machine only to instead plummet 10 feet to the ground and leaving a large hole in the floor. He weakly raised his
arm above the entrence to the hole, " Oww.... "
" Beats me. " Vegeta shrugged, " He had it sitting by some ladder. " the ouji hopped inside the machine and programed
it, " 100 years, same location...there! " he beamed.
" Data successfully entered. " the computer said.
" Yes, I AM successful, aren't I! " Vegeta boasted, then hopped back out.
" Don't you think 100 years is a bit much. " Chi-Chi said, suspicous.
" Nonsense, Onna. Kakay and I, with our slow aging metabolisms, are likely not to get old and grey until we're at
least in our 200's. " Vegeta laughed.
" 200'S!! " Chi-Chi gawked, " But, humans are lucky to live up to _100_!! And if I were to die even before I reached
that mark-- "
" --it would mean I would get over a century of sweet, pleasing kaka-time. " Vegeta finished the sentence.
" ERRR, BUT THAT'S NOT RIGHT! " Chi-Chi yelled.
" Yeah, well, tell that to future me when you get there. Since he's probably had 100 more years worth of training
than I have I'm sure he'll be happy to beat the shock out of you. " Vegeta smirked as Chi-Chi climbed in, " And while
you're busy bothering future me, present me will be busy bothering 'Kakay'. " the short ouji grinned at Goku, who was
still wiping his tear-stained cheeks, " Isn't he cute? "
" GOKU YOU'RE COMING WITH ME! " Chi-Chi shouted.
" *sniffle*, but Chi-chan, *sniff* you can only fit ONE person in the time machine. " Goku pointed out. Chi-Chi
looked around and sweatdropped.
" So I see... " she trailed off, " Let me get this straight, if I go into the future to make sure future Goku's
safe MY Goku will become unprotected prey to that manipulating little Ouji, but if I stay here then there's a chance
future Goku could end up with the same fate!? " Chi-Chi exclaimed.
" Yeah, pretty much. " Vegeta shrugged, then smirked evilly, " Can't be two different places at once, can ya, Onna? "
" We'll just see about THAT. " Chi-Chi said as she closed the hatch, " GOKU GO LOCK YOURSELF IN YOUR ROOM AND
DO NOT ALLOW VEGETA IN UNTIL I RETURN NO MATTER WHAT!! "
" Yes Chi-chan! " Goku nodded, then dashed upstairs to his bedroom where he promptly locked himself in.
Chi-Chi blew a raspberry in Vegeta's direction, " See ya Ouji! "
" Whatever you say, Onna. " Vegeta folded his arms as Chi-Chi started up the machine and it along with herself
disappeared. Vegeta chuckled as he climbed the stairs up to Goku's bedroom, " Whatever you say. "
" WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!! " Chi-Chi screamed as the
time machine hurtled through the space-time vortex. She let out a yelp as the machine suddenly came to a complete stop.
Chi-Chi leaned over the side of the chair and promptly threw up.
" OHHHhhhhHHhh, I forgot how much I hate that. " she groaned, then sat up in surprise to find she was still in the
living room of the Son home with one exception; the entire inside of the house had been redecorated brand new and yet was
covered in a light layer of dust. Chi-Chi hopped out of the time machine, " WHAT HAPPENED HERE?! " she gawked as she wandered
about the room. She grinned at the large sofa, " It's BEAUTIFUL! " Chi-Chi exclaimed as she sat down, then instantly leaped
back up on her feet, " It's DISGUSTING! " she quickly brushed the dust off herself, " Like no one's been here for YEARS...but
, then where would Goku be? " Chi-Chi blinked, then let out a shriek as a sudden horrific image appeared in her mind. She
quickly shook it off and dashed outside, " GOKU! GOKU ARE YOU OUT HERE!! " Chi-Chi called out, then noticed several objects
on a hill nearby the house. She grinned and dashed towards them, only to screech to a halt to find six large headstones. She
gulped, recognizing nearly all of them, " Gohan, Videl, Pan, Goten, Parisu. " Chi-Chi gulped as she read the first names
outloud, then paused, " "Parisu"? My little Goten got married! " she grinned, " It must have been a BEAUTIFUL wedding! "
Chi-Chi mused, then glanced over at the dusty stone on the far left, " Please don't tell me-- "
" "Son Chi-Chi Gyu-Mao. 737-823".... " she mumbled off in shock, " That's 86 years...not even 90! And if I'm 100
years in the future than that means that Goku's been here without me for more than half a century now!!! " Chi-Chi gulped,
" I gotta find him! I'll show that Ouji that my Go-chan hasn't deserted me for him just because I'm gone! " she said, then
flew up into the air only to quickly fall back down flat on her back.
Chi-Chi sweatdropped, " I haven't really learned to fly yet...stupid me. " she said sarcastically, then got up, " NOW
how am I gonna find him... " she trailed off, then perked up, " A-HA! KINTO'UN!! " she shouted into the sky as the familiar
little yellow cloud came flying down to her. It screeched to a halt in a friendly manner, " Ha! I'm such a genius! " Chi-Chi
clasped her hands together, then hopped on the cloud, " YOU'RE DEAD, OUJI! " she laughed, then sweatdropped as she fell
straight through the cloud and onto the floor, twitching, " You've got to be kidding me....I'M _INPURE_ NOW!! " Chi-Chi
snapped at the cloud, which just flew away, " HEY! HEY WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU'RE GOING! JUST BECAUSE I'M ON A MISSION TO
ANNIHILATE THAT OUJI MEANS I'M EVIL!!! COME BACK HERE!! " she shouted, then sighed, " I guess there's only one other way to
get going... " Chi-Chi cringed, glancing over her shoulder at the time-machine in the house, " ....I hate this. "
" I REALLY REALLY HATE THIIIIIIIIS!!! " she screamed as the time machine hurtled through the air. She spotted a tiny
pink dot below her, " There it is! " Chi-Chi brightened up, then slammed on the brakes and nearly flew through the
windshield had she not only buckled herself in but also tied herself into the chair with some duct-tape from home. The
time machine landed gracefully on the sand and she got out of the vehicle, " The Kame house! If Goku decided not to live
at home without me he's BOUND to be here with Kuririn's family...whoever's left of them. " she looked around. She peeked
inside one of the windows and sighed with relief to find there was something cooking on the stove, the TV was on, and it
looked like it a normal lived in home.
" Weh-heh-hehll, who do we have here! " Chi-Chi froze, then quickly spun around and slapped the person behind her.
She gasped in surprise, " ROSHI!! "
Muten Roshi adjusted his sun-glasses in shock, " OHH! Chi-Chi!! How did you get here! "
" YOU DIRTY OLD MAN! HOW CAN I BE DEAD AND YOU STILL BE ALIVE! " Chi-Chi roared in his face.
" I drank that magic potion that keeps you from getting old. Physically anyway. " he explained.
" ERRR, THAT'S NOT RIGHT! " Chi-Chi snapped, then added, " --AND KEEP YOUR UGLY FACE AWAY FROM MY BOTTOM!!! "
" Hey, hey! I didn't know it was you! " Roshi put his hands up in defense.
Chi-Chi sent him a death-glare, " And what is THAT supposed to mean!! "
" Uhh...say, what are you doing here anyway? And in Mirai Trunks's time machine too. " Roshi said, eager to change
the subject before Chi-Chi became physically violent.
" Hmm? " Chi-Chi blinked, then took a moment to gather her thoughts; her recent explosion of anger fuzzying out any
other thoughts, " Oh. I made a bet with the Ouji and I'm here to check on Goku, you know, to see how he's doing. " she
said, looking in the doorway.
" Oh Goku's not here. " Chi-Chi paused and glanced down to see Turtle.
" Wha--what to you mean "Goku's not here"? " she said, worried.
" I mean, he was here for a while. " Turtle explained, " After you died he only stayed in his house about another
week before moving out. "
" MOVING OUT?! WHERE!? "
" Poor boy...he came here but the sting was just too much for him. " Roshi shook his head, " He left after 3 days
and we haven't seen him since. "
" TWO DAYS?! YOU MEAN YOU HAVEN'T SEEN GOKU IN OVER 50 YEARS!!! WHAT KIND OF FRIENDS ARE YOU!!! " Chi-Chi yelled
at them. Roshi and the turtle cringed.
" It's not like he haven't tried to contact him. You know, phoning him and the like. Don't know where he went.
Mostly everybody else is long gone by now. " Roshi shrugged.
" We tried calling Capsule Corp recently to see if he was there so we could wish him a Happy Birthday but all I
got was this voice speaking some language I've never heard before and then hang up. " Turtle said.
" So you know he's NOT at Capsule Corp with the Ouji? " Chi-Chi begged.
" No, I mean, there's always a possiblity...aww who am I kidding I have no clue! " Roshi said, then laughed.
Chi-Chi just growled, frustrated, and folded her arms, " Is there anyone else living with you two morons here? "
" Juuhachigou's upstairs but I wouldn't try to-- " Turtle started.
" She is? GREAT! " Chi-Chi ran inside, " That's right, Juu is part cyborg! She must age slower than normal human
begins! SHE can tell me where Goku is! I mean, she was created to seek and destory him, right? "
" NO! CHI-CHI WAIT! DON'T GO UP THERE! " Roshi shouted as he ran up the stairs after her, then stopped to pant,
" Poor old legs... "
" YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!! "
" ...can't say I didn't warn her. "
" AHH! " Chi-Chi zipped out of the room and slammed the door behind her, " Wha--wha--wha--wha-- "
" You see what happens when you jump in without thinking first. " Roshi said.
" HA! You should be one to talk, master. " Turtle said skeptically.
" Wha--wha--wha--wha-- " Chi-Chi stuttered in fright.
" Like you said, Juuhachigou is part android and part human. That's why she didn't exactly, err, " Turtle paused
to think of a good word, " age gracefully. "
" GRACEFULLY?!! SHE LOOKS LIKE SOME KIND OF ROBOTIC MUTANT! HER ARMS ARE THE SAME AND HER FACE LOOKS OLD BUT NOT
HER HAIR AND PARTS OF HER SKIN ARE WRINKLY AND THE OTHER PARTS LOOK YOUNG AND--AND---my God that was creepy! " Chi-Chi
said in a whole breath.
" Shh, I'll get her for you. " Roshi said, then poked his head in the doorway, " Juu, a friend's here to see you? "
" Really? Who is it? " she asked.
" It's Chi-Chi. " Roshi said slowly, " She wants to talk to you about Goku. "
" Oh that's WONDERFUL. Once Kuririn comes back from the food shopping we can all sit at the kitchen table and have
tea. " she said with a senile look in her eye.
" Uhh, right. Sure. " Roshi nodded, then pushed Chi-Chi in, " Go on, talk to her. " he said, then whispered, " But
be careful, her mind's not what it used to be. Afraid aging with robotic technology in her brain did something to her
over the years. " he looked left, then right, " She's convinced Kuririn and Marron are still alive, humor her oh-kay. "
" But that's TERRIBLE! " Chi-Chi gawked.
" We like to use this Kuririn hand puppet for persuasion sake. " Turtle held up a life-sized Kuririn hand-puppet.
Chi-Chi sweatdropped.
" You're kidding, right? "
" Oh Juuhachigou, honey, I'm going downstairs to make us some cocoa. " Turtle moved the hand-puppet while Roshi
pretended to speak in Kuririn's voice.
" That's lovely. Did you hear that Chi-Chi, Kuririn's going to make us some drinks. " Juuhachigou smiled.
Chi-Chi sweatdropped again, " Umm, Juuhachigou? " she asked, walking closer to where the android was laying
underneath the covers of the bed, " Do you happen to know where Goku is? I need to find him so that--umm,--I can bring
him back here so we can all have some tea. "
" Oh yes, Goku's always wandering off like that on you isn't he. " she smiled.
Chi-Chi laughed nervously, " Heh-heh-heh...yeah. "
" Didn't you hear, he's living with Vegeta now, isn't that splendid. "
Chi-Chi froze. She felt like a huge 1000 ton of bricks had just fallen ontop of her and she was then sucked into
a swirling black hole, " ...what...did you say? " she squeaked out.
" Vegeta's been keeping it very hush hush this whole time. Nobody knows about it. " Juuhachigou smiled in a senile
type of way. She pointed to the side of her head, " If I concentrate hard enough I can listen to their phone conversations
through the satellite in my brain. "
" So.....he's at....the OUJI'S? " Chi-Chi said, still in shock.
" As far as I know, yes. " Juuhachigou nodded, " They're each other's constant companion from what I've heard. Just
like Kuririn and I. " she slowly sat up then called downstairs, " IS THAT COCOA READY YET KURIRIN! "
" Uhh, COMING DEAR!! " Roshi shouted, then froze and shouted again in Kuririn's voice, " COMING DEAR! "
" I, I've gotta go. " Chi-Chi said, her whole body shaking.
" Aww, won't you stay for some lunch? " Juuhachigou asked.
" NO! Gotta go! Gotta find Goku! " Chi-Chi said, then dashed down the stairs and past Roshi and the turtle.
" Hey Chi-Chi? Where ya going? " Roshi called out after her, " Kitchen's this way! "
" CAPSULE CORP! GOTTA HURRY! GOKU'S IN BIG TROUBLE! " Chi-Chi screamed in fear as she lept into the time machine
and blasted off in the direction of West City.
Turtle shook his head, " Poor kid, she's in deep denial. "
" Not to mention a big surprise. " the Kuririn hand-puppet said. Turtle narrowed his eyes at Roshi, who just
shrugged at him.
" What? WHAT! "
" Oh sweet merciful heavens NO! " Chi-Chi gasped in horror as she stood at the outer edge of West City, now
labelled "VeggieLand". She floated into the town still inside the time machine. The entire city was redone with saiyajin
technology and now looked like someone had taken a small chunk of Bejito-sei and smushed it onto Earth.
" What a shame. "
" I feel so sorry for her. "
" That poor girl. "
Chi-Chi stopped and looked over her shoulder to see a trio of citizens gossiping to each other.
" Umm, excuse me for asking, but what poor girl? " Chi-Chi said curiously.
" The poor girl Mr. Oujisama keeps locked up in his castle. " one woman said.
" You can hear her singing from time to time whenever she's out in the garden. Poor thing. " the other woman said
sadly.
" I hear he built some kind of laser fence to zap her if she tries to get out. " the man exclaimed. The two woman
stared at him for a moment, then burst into laughter.
" Girl? " Chi-Chi scratched her head.
" Well, we've never seen her. " the man said.
" NOBODY'S ever seen her. " the first woman retorted.
" Nobody except for Mr. Oujisama himself! " the second woman nodded, " She seems happy though. At least her songs
sound happy anyway. "
" Yeah well you never know. He might be threatening her not to sing anything too depressing. You know, as to not
arouse suspicion in the public eye. " the man shook his head.
" Whoever she is I commend her for lasting this long locked in there with him. " the first woman said.
" _I_ wouldn't mind being locked in with him somewhere. " the second woman smirked.
" Oh brother. " the man rolled his eyes. Chi-Chi flew the time machine off into the city.
" Singing girl? What singing girl? " she mumbled, getting closer to Capsule Corp. She shrieked to see it now
labeled Prince Vegeta-sama's Castle, " YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME! " Chi-Chi gawked.
" Yo huuna qe pi los wefa la la ra. Qui per de per da splaw aw aw paaak. "
Chi-Chi froze at the sound an unrecognizable language being beautifully sung by a VERY familiar voice, " That's
no girl--THAT'S GOKU!! " she smiled with relief, then ran towards the bushes the voice was coming from, " GOKU! OH GOKU
IS THAT YOU I'M SO HAPPY I FOUND-- " her jaw dropped to the floor.
" --you? " the large saiyajin finished, cocking his head. Chi-Chi looked Goku up and down in shock. He looked exactly
the same as the one she had just left at home 15 minutes ago with the exception that this one was wearing a fluffy pink robe
, a pair of Veggie-ish white gloves, slippers, and a light-pink ribbon tied head-band style on the large saiyajin's head. A
puffy bow hung from the front right side of the ribbon.
" Oh dear Lord what did that Ouji do to you? " Chi-Chi gawked, grabbing him by the hands, " Oh Goku are you alright?
Just look at you!....hey, this isn't that servant-maid outfit the Ouji made you. " she blinked, surprised.
" Yaa na porqa dii quo wah? " Goku raised an eyebrow, slightly worried.
Chi-Chi hugged him, " My poor baby! " she cried, " Wearing some sick Ouji-created Ouji-clothes and speaking something
that's not English. "
" Saiyago? " Goku replied, pulling her off of him.
" Yeeeeee...ah. " Chi-Chi sweatdropped, " Listen Goku! We've got to get out of here! YOU'VE got to get out of here! "
she grabbed him by the sleeve and attempted to pull him off the lawn. He just stood there, confused.
" Err, right. Goku, we have to leave. You know--LEAVE? " Chi-Chi said, nervous, " It's ENGLISH. You...speak...
...ENG-A-LISH. "
" Watta nah dake bo unkawa! " Goku pulled his arm away and rubbed it.
" Oh my God he's forgotten how to speak english. " Chi-Chi slapped herself on the forehead in shock. She turned back
towards him, " Goku, I need you to listen to--HEY WHERE ARE YOU GOING! " she yelled as he backed up, frightened. He turned
his back to her, dropped the watering can in his hand and ran towards the door, " GOKU! GOKU!! " Chi-Chi screamed, then
cringed and bit her lip, " OHHHHhhhHHHhhhHHh...KAKARROTTO! "
Goku froze and turned back towards her.
Chi-Chi sweatdropped.
" This, is going to be tougher than I thought... "

8:29 PM 9/13/2002
Chuquita: And so ends part 1 of "Veggie Wins?!"
Vegeta: (Mr. Poetic) Ahh, tis a very sweet nectar from the soda can of victory.
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) ...what?
Vegeta: Nevermind.
Goku: (cocks an eyebrow at the fic) How come future me only speaks Veggie-ese?
Vegeta: Saiyago.
Goku: Veggie-ese.
Vegeta: (grumbles) Fine. "Veggie-ese".
Goku: (to Chu) CAN future me speak english?
Chuquita: I'd rather not ruin the plotline Son-san.
Goku: (pouts) Awww...
Vegeta: (snickers) If future Kakay only speaks in our native tongue does that mean I'm the only one who can communicate with
him! I'm the only one who can tell what he's saying! I'm the only one he can understand!!
Goku: (sweatdrops) That's kinda scary...
Vegeta: What did you say, Kakarrotto?
Goku: Uhhh, nothing little Veggie. (cheesy grin)
Vegeta: Hmmph. (stubbornly folds his arms) Yeah, it better have been.... (perks up) SAY! We get to do that "Ask Kakarrotto"
thing in this story's Corner, don't we Chu?
Chuquita: (watches Goku wildly wave his arms about and shaking his head no) Actually, yes Veggie. We do.
Vegeta: (cheers) WHOO-HOO!
Goku: (groans) Oh no...
Vegeta: (grins) Here that audiance! You get to ask Kakarrotto personal and secretive questions and he's FORCED to answer
them!
Chuquita: (sweatdrop) It can be ANY kind of question, Vedge.
Vegeta: Yeah yeah yeah. (rubs his hands together) Oooh this is going to be a good one. I mean, with all the fans I've got I'm
sure they'll think up some WONDERFUL questions to ask my large peasant. (smirks at Goku, who pales)
Goku: Veggie's really starting to scare me Chu-sama. (sweatdrop)
Chuquita: He's ALWAYS been a little scary, Son. [pats him on the back] Don't worry though, I'm sure you'll be able to take
any questions the audiance can throw at you....(thinks) I'm pretty sure they call the saiyajin language saiyago. Is that
right Vedge?
Vegeta: (shrugs) Don't ask me it's your story.
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) So I could call it Saiyaish or Saiyanese or Saiyanch and you wouldn't care?
Vegeta: (snorts) OF COURSE I WOULD CARE!
Chuquita: Then what IS it called?
Vegeta: ...
Chuquita: (groans) Oh my God he doesn't know the name of his own native tongue.
Goku: How embarassing.
Vegeta: (glares at them both; then goes back to thinking)
Chuquita: Oh! Son-san! I just saw 3/4 of the Mirai Trunks special!
Goku: (grins) Oh yeah! I was in that...umm, I died in that one...didn't I, Chu?
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) You had less air-time than Veggie did! I haven't seen the end since I only downloaded 3 of the 5
files I need to view the whole thing (it got too late and I have to go to bed) but someone in a review told me once that
Veggie was crying at Son's funeral and yet there wasn't even such an event in the 30-some minutes I saw of this special.
I know it must happen somewhere I got a screenshot of Veggie in his little black suit crying his eyes out. (confused)
Goku: (frowns) I don't like it when Veggie cries. It makes me hurt inside.
Vegeta: (glowing bright red) (chokes out) How bad?
Goku: (sadly) Really really REAL bad!
Vegeta: (grins, then faints; falling out of his chair)
[Chu & Son sweatdrop]
Chuquita: Remember audiance, if you have a question to ask Son-kun then let us know in the review! Or e-mail me. Whichever
you prefer. And also I have a lil request to ask of everybody. I'm planning on writing a parody of movie 12 in the future.
Goku: (happily) That's the one with Goggie in it!
Chuquita: So if anyone knows where I can download a copy of the movie or even a script I would really appreciate it. If
no one knows where to find either thing I'll just go on the various summaries I've read of it. This fic will probably have
the same feel to it as the 3 Majin Buu episodes I parodied a while ago. (Eps 273-275) (to Son) Guess that wraps up Part 1.
Goku: (grins) That it does!
Chuquita: (cheerfully) We'll see you next time when Son Goku answers some of your questions in the next Corner along with
the appearance of future Veggie in part 2 of "Veggie Wins?!"
Vegeta: Questions are made for answering. (grins) Right, servant-maid?
Goku: Whatever you say little Veggie.
Vegeta: (smirks) Call me V-sama.
Goku: (sweatdrops) Whatever you say, "V-sama".

Quote of the Week: -from dbz ep 278 "Buu Invades!! The Final Battle on Kaio-Shin's World"
{Kakarrotto:} But Chi-Chi's not that hot...and she'd kill me.
Chuey's Corner:
Chuquita: Hello and welcome to another story by yours truely. However this story is going to be different than the norm. Why,
you ask?
Vegeta: (grinning and nodding) Yes Chu, tell them why.
Chuquita: ... (sweatdrops at Veggie) (turns back to audiance) This story is a special one because it is the infamous story
number 5! In this story, as the obvious title points out, is one in which Veggie wins.
Vegeta: (hoots) WOO-HOO!
Goku: (looks up at the Q.O.T.W) Hey Chu-sama, why am I quoted up there as "Kakarrotto" instead of "Goku"?
Chuquita: Hmm? OH! Since this is going to be Veggie's little fic "special", he gets to choose the quotes of the week.
Goku: So orignally, from wherever that quote is from, it said "Goku" in the little box.
Chuquita: (nods) Yeah, that's pretty much right.
Goku: (glances over at Veggie)
Vegeta: (is grinning so wide he looks like his cheeks are about to fall off)
Goku: (turns back to Chu with a look of panic and fear on his face) (nervous) Do--do you really think it's alright giving
little Veggie this much power. I mean, the ego and the pride and the--
Chuquita: Listen, this is Veggie's one chance to shine and come out ontop in one of my fics. Do you really wanna take it away
from him?
Kakarrotto: (frowns) No, I guess not. (freezes in place) [glances over at his name in the name-box] (screams) VEGGIE!!!
Vegeta: (cheerfully) Yes, Kakarrotto-chan?
Kakarrotto: (flatly) Veggie change my name back.
Vegeta: What name?
Kakarrotto: In the name box! You switched it on me!!
Vegeta: (innocently) I don't see anything wrong with the fact that your rightful name is now in the box, Kakay.
Kakay: (sighs) Veggie I just want you to put it back to Go-- (sweatdrops at the name in his namebox) --AWW COME ON VEGGIE!
You wanna be that way then HERE!
Veggie: ... (sweatdrops) Alright, alright. You big baby.
Goku: (smiles) Thank you Veggie.
Vegeta: Don't mention it. (snorts) I don't know WHY you prefer that adoptive Earth name of yours. Your saiyajin name is MUCH
BETTER. It has a very important meaning to it as a matter of fact.
Chuquita: (groans) Oh no, Son, now you've got him going.
Goku: Sorry Chu.
Vegeta: Actually the word Kakarrotto is taken from the name of a legendary utopian-ish paradise city on Bejito-sei.
Supposedly the land itself was a hidden treasure. In fact it WAS a hidden treasure because nobody ever found it. At least not
from what the royal family had on file anyway. The size of the cattle and food alone in Kakarrotto was so enormous that one
beast alone was enough to feed 10 of us and keep our bellies full or at least a month. Supposedly gold hung from the trees
and the water from the river was so pure that while you were in battle with it in your system it would automatically and
instantaneously heal any cuts or bruises given to you by your opponent.
Goku: (w/big sparkily eyes) Oh wow Veggie that is beautiful!
Vegeta: (sweatdrops) (turns away, glowing bright red) Uhh, yeah, right. (shakes his head, causing the redness to leave)
(glances back at Son to see he's still staring at Veggie w/big sparkily eyes)
Goku: Mmm...
Vegeta: (embarassed) DON'T LOOK AT ME LIKE THAT!! _I'M_ NOT THE ONE WHO NAMED YOU! YOUR MOM DID THAT!!!
Goku: (squeaks out) Aww, really? [looks upward] Thank you Mommy! Wherever you are!
[Chu and Veggie sweatdrop]
Goku: Is the city of Kakarrotto PRETTY, little Veggie?
Vegeta: HOW WOULD I KNOW! (grumbles) I've never been there.
Goku: (musing) I bet it's the most beautiful place in the whole UNIVERSE! After all it's named after me! (big doofy grin)
Vegeta: Ugh, Kakarrotto! They didn't name the legendary saiyajin paradise AFTER YOU! They named YOU after IT!!
Goku: (disappointed) ...oh.
Chuquita: [pats Son on the back] Aw, cheer up Son-kun! It's time to introduce the story!
Goku: Really?
Vegeta: (grinning widely) REALLY?
Goku: (sweatdrops) Here we go again.
Chuquita: Story #5 is a fic I've had sitting in the back of my mind and left to rot for the longest time--
Vegeta: (evil smirk in Son's direction) --but, like a fine wine it becomes increasingly delicious over the years. Like us
saiyajins for example.
Chuquita: (slightly annoyed) ...Vedge?
Vegeta: (snorts) Alright alright I get it, your story, you do the explanation for it. Yeah yeah...
Chuquita: Anyways, story #5 contains several flashbacks, a couple characters daydreams, time travel, and enough future stuff
to make Chi-Chi nearly lose her sanity. In short, it's what happens to everyone in the future if Veggie somehow was able to
'win' his "peasant".
Vegeta: (smirks) You'll never believe how I did it.
Chuquita: I know it's so obvious it's almost impossible to figure out that you didn't realize this one before.
Goku: (pale) How DOES Veggie do it?
Chuquita: (happy smiles) You'll just have to read on and see Son-san! (to audiance) By the way this will _NOT_ be a yaoi.
(to Son & Veggie) Some people suggested I make it one back when we had the Poll in the last story as to whether this
fic should be written or not. In fact I can name at least 4 of the regulars who review my fics who would love to see that
happen. (grins) But it's not!
Vegeta: (cocks an eyebrow) That was kinda cold, don't you think?
Chuquita: (skeptic) Would you LIKE IT if I were to do one of those, Vedge?
Vegeta: (glances over at Goku)
Goku: (grins stupidly at him)
Vegeta: (to Chu) No.
Chuquita: (clasps her hands together) Well there ya go! And here's the summary!
Summary: Chi-Chi and Veggie make a bet on Goku's loyalty. The ouji says that by the time another century has past and
Chi-Chi has already gotten old and been buried he would have Son-San wrapped around his little finger, seeing as they
saiyajins with their longer life-spans and slow aging process will probably live way after the rest of the Z senshi pass on.
Chi-Chi mocks him and tells Veggie that her Go-chan loves her too much to give in to his ouji-obsessiveness. Goku is unsure
if either of them is right and a slightly worried Chi-Chi decides to take Mirai's time machine for a spin and find out. What
awaits her in the future is a fate worse than anything she possibly could have imagined for Goku. What is this fate? Will
she be able to change the future or her present to stop these events from occuring? Heck, if Mirai Trunks can do it so can
Chi-Chi...right?
Vegeta: (evil laugh) Heh-heh, WRONG!
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) Vedge...
Vegeta: Hey Kakay, put this on will ya? [holds out the little hat to the servant-maid costume he made for Son a while back]
Goku: (shakes his head wildly) Oh NO! No no no no no no NO VEGGIE!
Vegeta: [plops the servant-maid hat ontop of Goku's head] (happily) There! Don't you look Kakawaii!
Chuquita: (?) "Kakawaii"?
Vegeta: Yes, it's like kawaii, only with another Ka. See he's Kakarrotto and that's where I got it from. (grins) Heh-heh, I
believe I've just coined a new phrase! Good for me!
Goku: (looks up at his little hat and sweatdrops) (groans) Let's just start the fic already.
Chuquita: You got it Son!
*****************************************************************************************************************************
" Mrs. Son, someone's here to see you. " the doctor poked his head in room 429, then backed up as a familiar figure
entered the room, a big friendly smile on his face.
" Hello Chi-chan! " Goku said happily, holding a bouquet of flowers in his hands. He walked over to the bed she was
laying in, " I broughtcha some flowers. " he grinned, holding them out.
" Thank you Go-chan, that's so sweet of you. " Chi-Chi smiled weakly. Here she was in her 80's, lying in a hospital
bed while Goku stood there beside the bed looking the same way he had since before Goten was born, ::What irony!:: she
thought, ::He doesn't look a day over 32 at least:: even their children were showing more signs of aging than Goku was. All
those times he had been off fighting Freezer, those two seemingly infinite long periods when he was in the 'other world'; all
that time training to fight Cell and here she was, now finally able to have some decent time with him only to probably end up
in 'other world' herself. Chi-Chi smirked, ::What utter irony!::
" The doctors said you're not allowed to have any chocolates but look what I've got! " Goku grinned impishly as he
pulled out a hersey's kiss from his gi pocket, " You better eat it quick before somebody comes in here and kicks me out for
bringing you candy. "
Chi-Chi took the chocolate from him and slowly unwrapped it, " I think I may just do that, Go-chan. " she smiled
warmly.
" Yes, thata boy, "Go-chan". Let's hurry Onna along to her final resting place among the rats and worms of this
planet. " a familiar voice snickered from the doorway.
Chi-Chi froze onsight, then removed the candy from the inside of her mouth, wrapped it back up, and placed it under
her pillow, " Ouji. " an unchanging spark of rage re-flickered in her eyes as the figure entered the hospital room.
" HAHAHA! Will you get a look at yourself, Onna? " Vegeta laughed. The ouji was also perpetually unaging. He also
had not physically changed over the years with the exception of getting stronger. He was still short, had the same haircut he
had when she first met him, same type of gloves, boots, and training outfit, " I WISH I had a mirror just so I could let you
see how horribly disfigured you've become. "
Chi-Chi growled at him.
Vegeta turned to Goku, " Isn't it a shame how quickly these EARTH-PEOPLE age, Kakay? One minute they're there. The
next they're ash, in a box underground, or a human-popsicle. Yep. Sad sad thing. "
" Why YOU-- " Chi-Chi painfully sat up and reached out to grab Vegeta by the neck to choke him, only to find it was
even hard for her to keep her grip around the ouji's neck than to even squeeze.
" You're going to exhaust yourself if you keep THAT up, Onna. " Vegeta snickered, pulling away, " Wouldn't want to go
TOO early now, would we? "
" WAIT'LL I GET MY HANDS ON YOU OUJI I'LL RIP THAT UGLY HEAD RIGHT OFF YOU'RE BODY I'LL--I'LL--OHHHHH... " Chi-Chi
moaned in pain.
" AHH! CHI-CHAN! " Goku gasped, " Veggie don't get Chi-chan too excited! " he patted Chi-Chi's wrist, " She needs her
rest, right Chi-chan? " he said comfortingly.
" Aww, Goku. " Chi-Chi rubbed her cheek against his hand.
" My my, would you look at how WRINKLY Onna's cheeks have gotten. " Vegeta smirked. Chi-Chi sent him a death-glare,
" While _I_ on the other hand still have the same soft, smooth perfect skin I was born with. " he leaned sideways towards
Goku, " Care to rub MY cheek, Kakay-chan? "
" *SLAP*! " Chi-Chi violently sent her hand slapping across the ouji's face, " YOU LEAVE HIM ALONE YOU HEAR ME! " she
shouted, then gasped for breath and leaned her head back onto the pillow.
" Of course I hear you. " Vegeta chuckled, " Doesn't mean I have to listen. " he said, then gave the larger saiyajin
a hug from behind.
" ... " Goku paused and glanced down at the two white gloves around his waist, " VEGGIE HUGS! " he grinned, then
spun Vegeta around and squeezed him tightly, " OOOOoooOOOOoOOoOOOoh!! "
" *Ack*! " Vegeta yelped, unable to breathe, " Kaka...rrotto...can't...breathe... "
" Hmm? " Goku blinked, then dropped him, " Sorry little buddy! " he said cheerfully.
Vegeta examined the patient who was still trying to recuperate from the rush of energy she had used to slap the ouji,
" You know what Kakarrotto-chan. I give our little visit about 3 more minutes and then we'll take our leave. "
" He came here *huff* with you? " Chi-Chi weakly asked Goku.
" Come with me? " Goku stared at her, confused. He grinned, " Silly Chi-chan! Veggie drove me here in his limo! " he
pointed to the window, " It's parked outside! "
Chi-Chi's eyes widened as she tilted her head in Vegeta's direction. The ouji smile evilly at her and waved.
" You let HIM take you here! " she said to Goku, nervous, " Wha, what about Gohan? Or Goten? I'm sure they would've
taken you, you you don't need the Ouji. "
" Gohan's off saving the rainforest somewhere and Goten's busy having another mid-life crisis. " Goku replied,
shrugging.
" Heh, Kaka-spawn #2 is off testing out his brand-new motorcycle somewhere along the west coast. " Vegeta added.
" We're not sure where, but the last time he called he was in a mini-mall. " Goku nodded. He smiled, " Veggie's been
staying over at our house since you, you know, got sick. "
" Yes, " Vegeta continued, then reached for his back, " your mattress is much too hard for my liking though, Onna. "
" YOU'VE BEEN SLEEPING IN _MY_ BED!!! " Chi-Chi shrieked. She turned to Goku, " YOU'VE BEEN LETTING HIM SLEEP IN MY
BED!!! "
" Well, not really. " Goku put his hand behind his head, " I've been keeping little Veggie company at night so he's
oh-kay in the new surroundings and all. "
Chi-Chi's jaw dropped to the floor, " WHAT?!!! "
" Calm down Chi-Chi. " Goku chuckled, " It's only til you get better and come back home. " he grinned, " Then we can
go back to normal and I can catch us yummy food and you can cook it and we'll eat it together! And I'll even help you get out
the Veggie-smell that's accumulated in your room over the past several months. It'll be fun! "
" Fun... " Chi-Chi murmured, her eyes welling up with tears, " Oh Goku, I'm not sure if I'll be able to come back
home. I'm not sure we'll be able to get back to normal. "
" Why not Chi-chan? " Goku cocked his head sideways, curiously.
" Oh Go-chan it hurts so much, the pain; I can hardly move. " she felt the tears rolling down her cheeks.
" Oh-kay, how's this, 'rest in piece you ugly old tyrannical witch'. " Vegeta cheerfully read off a little notepad he
had been scribbling things down on.
" VEGGIE! THAT'S TERRIBLE! " Goku gasped, disgusted.
" Alright, you can pick out what you want to put on the rock. I don't care. " Vegeta smirked.
" Ouji. "
" Hmm? " Vegeta glanced over at Chi-Chi.
" I'd like to talk to Goku alone, Ouji. " Chi-Chi said narrowing her eyes at him.
" And I'd like to take Kakay on a trip to the Caribbean, but you don't see ME whining about it. " Vegeta shrugged.
" Veggie can you please go stand in the hallway for a lil bit and I'll meet you there. " Goku asked.
The ouji smiled, " Whatever YOU say, Kakay. " he did an overdramatic bow, then left. Goku giggled at the smaller
saiyajin.
" Veggie so cute. " Goku clapped for him, then turned back to Chi-Chi, " Hmm? " he smiled.
" I can't believe this. I'm not even dead yet and he's already using MY ROOM as his own personal little Ouji
hangout! " Chi-Chi grumbled, " I should've killed him when I had the chance! "
" Chi-chan NO! You don't wanna kill Veggie! " Goku gasped, " Look out UTTERLY ADORABLE little Veggie is! " he pointed
to Vegeta in the doorway who was watching the larger saiyajin with fake big sparkily eyes, " If I wasn't so busy giving you
support to help you get better again I'd be squeezin little Veggie's brains out right now... " Goku murmured, almost in a
trance-like state.
" GOKU SNAP OUT OF IT! " Chi-Chi exclaimed. The larger saiyajin instantly turned towards her, " Listen! After I leave
I want you to stay as FAR AWAY from that little monster as POSSIBLE! Can you do that for me? " she asked, beggingly.
" Leaving? " Goku said, then laughed, " Aww Chi-chan, you're not goin anywhere. "
Chi-Chi cocked her head towards the doorway to see Vegeta grinning evilly at her, whistling the 'rest in peace' tune.
She turned back to the smiling yet slightly confused Goku with her eyes almost bulging out of their sockets, " Oh my God he's
going to come in this room and steal you away from me the moment I leave you. " she gulped, her vision blurring, " Ohhhh... "
she groaned in pain.
" Chi-chan? Chi-chan what's going on? What're you doin! STOP THAT! " Goku said in a panicky voice as Chi-Chi felt her
senses begin to dull. The blurry smirking figure in the doorway was slowly walking into the room, snickering to himself.
" I don't...want to...leave you... " she focused vision on the now even blurrier figure looking over her, " I don't
want you to leave me, Goku... "
" Aww, I won't leave just yet Chi-chan. I promise! In fact, I'll stay until visiting hours are over if it's oh-kay
with you! " he said cheerfully, then watched as Chi-Chi pulled her arm back and closed her eyes, " Chi-chan? " he blinked,
" Chi-chan wake up, I was talking to you. " Goku pouted at the sudden interuption, then froze. The ki infront of him had just
disappeared completely, " Chi-chan? CHI-CHAN!! " he shook her, " CHI-CHAN SAY SOMETHING TO ME! LOOKIT ME!! COME ON CHI-CHAN
JUST DO SOMETHING!!! " Goku shouted in fright, then started to sob loudly, " Chi-chaAAAn! CHI-CHAN DON'T LEAVE! I DON'T WANT
YOU TO LEAVE! I DON'T WANNA BE ALONE!!! " he wailed, staring at her.
" You're not alone. " a small hand patted him on the shoulder, " I'm still here, Kakay. " Vegeta smirked. Goku looked
over his shoulder at the short ouji, then grabbed onto him tightly and began to cry into Vegeta's shoulder.
" VEGGIEVEGGIE CHI-CHAN'S GONE!! " Goku held on tighter, " I don't want her to go... "
" Well don't you worry Kakarrotto-chan. I won't leave you like Onna did. " Vegeta hugged back, " In fact, I'll still
be here with you for a very long time to come. How do you like that? "
" ... "
" Kakay? "
" ...Veggie? " Goku said after a very long pause, " Can I come home with you to Capsule Corp? " he said in a quiet
voice, sniffling.
" Sure you can, Kakarrotto. " Vegeta said, then flashed a V for victory sign at Chi-Chi. He led Goku out of the room,
still holding one arm over the larger saiyajin's shoulder, " I'll even have a guest room fixed up for you. You won't have to
worry about anything ever again. " he said comfortingly, then cocked his head over to where Chi-Chi was laying for one final
glance, " Isn't that right, Onna? "
50 years earlier... AKA The Present...
" YAHHH!! "
" *SMASH*! "
" HAHA! Looks like you've missed me again, Onna! " Vegeta laughed maniacally as he raced around the Son home, Chi-Chi
chasing after him with a very large ax and accidentally chopping several pieces of furniture in half while doing so.
" YOU GIVE THOSE BACK RIGHT NOW AND I PROMISE I'LL KILL YOU QUICKLY! " she screeched to halt and cornered the ouji.
Vegeta just grinned in response and waved a large pair of boxers in the air.
" They'd make a lovely hat, don't you think? " he snickered, waving them above his head.
" ERRR--NAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!! " Chi-Chi swung the ax only to have Vegeta teleport out of the way and cause her to
instead make a huge dent in the kitchen wall.
Meanwhile Goku was sitting at the kitchen table stuffing his face with a very large sandwich, oblivious to the
goings-on around him. Chi-Chi's ax came flying down throught the table, just missing Vegeta by mere inches. She stood on the
table and ripped the ax back out, then went off chasing him again.
" Hey Veggie can you pass me the mayo? " Goku asked happily, then sweatdropped as a pair of boxers fell ontop of his
head. Goku peeled the underwear off and looked at it, " Hey, these look just like the ones I put on this morning-- " he
paused, then stuck his hand into the back of his gi pants to find the aforementioned boxers now missing. Goku stared
wide-eyed at the pair in his hands, " AAH!! VEGGIE HOW'D YOU DO THAT!!! "
" ... "
" Veggie? " Goku looked around the room to see both Vegeta and Chi-Chi had disappeared from the kitchen. He shrugged,
downed the rest of his sub in one gulp, and left in search of them.
" DOES NOT! "
" DOES TOO! "
" DOES NOT! "
" DOES TOO! "
Goku peered around the side corner of the wall leading into the living room to see Vegeta and Chi-Chi sending
death-glares at each other. He sweatdropped.
" Grr... " Vegeta growled, then paused to see Goku out of the corner of his eye, " Kakay! There you are! " Vegeta
said happily. Chi-Chi narrowed her eyes at the ouji, " Just the peasant I wanted to see! "
Goku grinned widely at the tone of Vegeta's voice, " Little Veggie is happy to see me? "
" Of course I am! I'm you little buddy. I love you. " Vegeta said attempting to persuade Goku to come into the room.
" Veggie LOVES me? " Goku's eyes widened until they were two big black sparkling blobs. Vegeta gulped and backed up.
" Uh, yeah, heh-heh. Of course I do--OOF!! " Vegeta yelped to find Goku now squeezing the ouji tightly against him.
" AWW MY LITTLE VEGGIE SAYS HE LOVES ME VEGGIE THAT'S SO SWEET OF YOU!! " Goku squealed. Vegeta gasped for air.
" Kaka....need...oxygen...to breathe... " Vegeta cried out as he slipped himself out of the hug and felt his chest
for any broken ribs due to the intensity of Goku's hug. He grumbled to himself, then glanced up at the larger saiyajin, who
was still baby-eyeing him, " Heh-heh..heh.. " Vegeta's face glowed bright red, " Kah-keeee... " he paused, then shook the
redness from his face, " Kakarrotto, I have a question to ask you. "
" Ask away little Veggie! " Goku said, saluting him.
" Kakarrotto, once Onna passes away to the great beyond, will you join me in a special saiyajin ritual and then come
to live with me on my expensive, plush, high-tech satellite where we will sail across the universe together? " Vegeta asked
sneakily.
" ...what expensive, plush, high-tech satellite? " Goku cocked an eyebrow, confused.
" Well...I haven't exactly built it yet...but once I have, will you join me? " Vegeta grinned cheesily.
" I dunno Veggie, I don't think I could just leave Chi-chan at home while I go on some Ad-Veggietures in outer
space. " Goku shook his head uneasily.
" "Ad-Veggietures"? " Chi-Chi repeated in disgust.
" You won't HAVE to worry about Onna, Kakarrotto! " Vegeta patted him on the shoulder, " She'll be DEAD! "
Goku gasped, " CHI-CHAN'S DYING!! " he turned to Chi-Chi, who just rolled her eyes as she leaned against her ax.
" Not yet but she will be! " Vegeta said cheerfully.
Goku glanced over at Chi-Chi w/big teary eyes, " Chi-chan's gonna LEAVE me? "
" Well, eventually, yes. But think of how WONDERFUL it will be when she's gone! " Vegeta exclaimed. Chi-Chi
face-faulted, " Why you can come live with ME! Wouldn't you love to be your little Veggie's housemate? " he smirked.
The larger saiyajin stared down at him, " Living with Veggie in the future?..... "
:::" I LOVE watching TV in anti-gravity! Don't you little Veggie! " Goku grinned as he sat in the air, indian-style.
The TV along with the rest of the futuristic-looking furniture was also floating in mid-air.
" It's fun AND you can swim in it! " Vegeta grinned, wearing a little blue gi which looked like a counterpart to
Goku's orange one and 'swimming' through the air above Goku.
Goku pulled out a small capsule labeled 'fish', " Hey little buddy! Got any water? " he called out. Vegeta teleported
to the kitchen, then swam back into the living room where he dumped a bucket of water over Goku's head along with the caspule
. The capsule shook, then in a puff of smoke a large fish appeared in it's place. Goku grabbed it with his soggy hands before
the fish could float away and took a big 'ol bite out of it, " I LOVE THE FUTURE!! ":::
" YEAH! " Goku hooted, " THAT'D BE THE COOLEST THING _EVER_!!! "
" What planet are you living on? " Chi-Chi muttered.
" Planet Eeearrrtth. " Goku slurred the last word on purpose, then giggled, " Heeheehee! "
" You have an...interesting concept of me in your head, you know that Kakarrotto? " Vegeta cocked an eyebrow.
" I WANNA GO TO THE FUTURE WITH VEGGIE RIGHT NOW! " Goku grinned.
" Really? " Vegeta rubbed his hands together evilly. He turned to Chi-Chi and pointed at her, " HA! "
" Oh brother. " Chi-Chi grumbled. She looked up at the larger saiyajin, " Listen Goku! That's not what the future
will be like at all! First of all you're MUCH TOO SMART to be taken in by any of that little Ouji's phoney charms and second
if he was able to get you alone he'd tie you up and enslave you and make you do horrible disgusting ouji-things!! "
" Ha--horrible? " Goku's eyes widened.
" Yes, VERY horrible! " Chi-Chi nodded.
:::" AND THAT AND THAT AND THAT AND THAT! YOU FORGOT TO CLEAN THAT ONE!! " the voice of the small figure sitting at
an insanely large throne yelled at Goku as he quickly bounced around the room cleaning the tiles on the floor. The larger
saiyajin had handcuffs and a ball and chain around his left leg along with a rope around his waist that lead up to the throne
. His gi was tattered and torn and he looked like he hadn't eaten in weeks. Goku finished and sighed deeply; very tired.
" BEAUTIFUL, Kakarrotto! Perfectly exquisite! " Vegeta grinned, clapping for him. Goku fell to the floor, pooped.
" ... "
" ... "
" Now come up here and delight me! "
The peasants eyes nearly popped out of his head, " You're kidding, right? " he choked out.
" I'm afraid not, Kakarrotto. " Vegeta shook his head, " 9pm, right on the button. " he smirked, " I schedule these
things for a reason you know. Wouldn't want you skipping out on me. "
" But, I'm so tired, I worked cleaning the whole Capsule Corp building all day! I wanna sleep. " Goku pouted.
" And you will, AFTER you get up here. " the ouji nodded, " AND IF YOU DON'T GET UP HERE RIGHT NOW I'LL PULL OUT THE
WHIP! "
" YES MR. OUJISAMA! " Goku yelped, " I'M COMING I'M COMING PLEASE DON'T WHIP ME AGAIN!! ":::
" Hmmph! " Vegeta snorted at Chi-Chi, insulted, " I would never whip you, would I Kakay? "
Goku stared at him, wide-eyed, " I think I liked my version better, little Veggie. "
" Yes, and the future WILL be much like your version of it, Kakay. " Vegeta smiled, then shook his head at Chi-Chi,
still physically sickened, " Hit my peasant with a whip! How SICK! "
" GOKU! " Chi-Chi shouted, " If I'm not here to protect you he's going to maniupulate you at his own will! You don't
want that Ouji to use you, DO YOU!? "
" I don't wanna clean any floors Veggie. " Goku gulped, backing up.
" I'm not going to make you clean anything Kakay. Bulma's cleaning-bots will do that. " Vegeta walked towards him,
" In fact, you won't have to answer to anybody. It'll be just you and me, having fun. You like having fun, don't you Kakay? "
" Fun with Veggie? " Goku's face lit up, then he glanced over at Chi-Chi who was shaking her head and hands no in a
frantic fashion, " Uhh, on second thought-- " he said uneasily, " --but then, Veggie would NEVER---or would he-- "
" YES HE WOULD!! " Chi-Chi screamed.
" HA! BRAVE WORDS COMING FROM AN ONNA WHO ORDERS KAKARROTTO AROUND LIKE SHE'S HIS OVERLORD!!! " Vegeta snapped, then
calmed down, smirking evilly, " I thought marriage was supposed to be an equal partnership to you earthlings, however it
seems that you're quite delusional of the fact that _I_ HAVE LEGAL RULE OVER KAKARROTTO AND YOU ARE NOTHING MORE THAN A WITCH
WHO THINKS SHE CAN ABUSE HER OWN POWER JUST TO KEEP KAKARROTTO FROM ME! Well it's not going to be that way for too long. You
just wait I'll concoct a plot so devious it'll expose you for the true creature you are! Miss I'm-going-to-use-Kakarrotto-for
-mating-purposes-only-so-I-can-create-a-super-strong-genius-son-who-will-make-me-lots-of-money-so-I-can-get-filthy-stinkin-
-rich!!! " Vegeta snarled at Chi-Chi.
" Is that TRUE, Chi-chan? " Goku sniffled.
" NO! OF COURSE IT'S NOT TRUE! I love you Goku. " Chi-Chi pleaded, " I MIGHT have said something at the tournament
when I was fighting that because of your strength you were a good choice, but it's more than that! But you agreed didn't you!
We got married 2 hours later! "
" HA! Kakarrotto only agreed because he had no idea what was going on, as usual. " Vegeta snorted, " Tell her,
Kakay! " he elbowed Goku in the side.
" Umm, well, I remember Chi-chan yelling at me that I promised to marry her so I thought to myself "I can't just
break a promise even if I don't remember making it" so I did. " Goku said, then smiled.
Chi-Chi's jaw dropped to the floor.
" You mean if it had been the OUJI fighting you there back at the 23rd tournament telling you you had promised to be
his "servant-maid" for the rest of your life you would've said yes all the same!!? " Chi-Chi gawked.
Goku shrugged, " Well, yeah I guess I would've. "
" Ohhh.... " Chi-Chi sweatdropped.
" 'course there's no way that could've happened to begin with! It would've still been 6 years till I met my little
Veggie! " Goku grinned down at the ouji standing next to him.
" But is it true? "
Chi-Chi glanced down at the small, snickering ouji, " Is WHAT true? " she narrowed her eyes.
" Is it true that you only used Kakarrotto for his physical strength, the money he earned by winning the tournament,
and for his ability to deliver you with the organism needed to spawn super-smart half-kaka-ed hybrids? " Vegeta accused her.
" WHAT! THAT'S INSANE! " Chi-Chi screamed.
" HA! PROVE IT! " Vegeta retorted.
" PROVE _WHAT_? " she snarled.
" PROVE that without your existance in Kakarrotto's every day life that he wouldn't be drawn into my exotic saiyajin
lifestyle. PROVE that he loves you more then ME. " the ouji dared.
" I DON'T HAVE TO PROVE I KNOW! "
" OH YEAH? "
" YEAH! "
" YEAH? "
" YEAH!!! "
" WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!! "
Both Chi-Chi and Vegeta froze and turned towards a wailing Goku who was sitting on the floor between them, crying
loudly and confused.
" GOKU! " Chi-Chi yelled, still fuming from her argument with the ouji.
" Chi-chan?... " Goku looked up at her with tears in his eyes.
" Goku, who do you love more! Me, you're loving wife of many many years who has bared your CHILDREN, or this CREATURE
here who says he's your prince. " she signaled to Vegeta, who waved to Goku. Goku smiled and waved back. Chi-Chi
sweatdropped, " STOP THAT!! " she snapped.
" Yes Chi-chan. " Goku said meekly.
" Goku! Who do you love the most! ME OR OUJI! "
" Uhh, I, I dunno... " Goku said nervously, glancing back and forth between the two, " I, err, love you both? "
Chi-Chi slapped herself on the forehead, " Goku, if I were to die right now would you disobey me and join that Ouji
in a life of sick, horrific ouji-things!! "
Goku cocked his head at the blank look on Vegeta's face and grinned, " Heeheehee.....uhhh, " he bit his lip and
looked back at Chi-Chi, " I....don't know...who I'd listen to, Chi-chan...I mean..OHHH!! THIS IS SO HARD! " Goku put one
hand on either side of his head and groaned, " IT'S NOT FAIR!!! "
Chi-Chi sighed, " Oh well, that's that. " she perked up, " Now get outta my house Ouji before I call the cops! "
" But we don't know Kakay's answer yet. " Vegeta chuckled, " I suppose you can't really tell what his little
kaka-heart is thinking; being torn between two great loves and all... "
" YOU ARE NOT GREAT NOR ARE YOU HIS "LOVE"!!! " Chi-Chi roared.
" There IS one way to find out what choice Kakay is going to make though... " Vegeta trailed off innocently.
Chi-Chi cocked an eyebrow at him, " Really? And what would that be? "
" Mirai's time machine. Take it well into the future, say, oh, 100 years or so and we'll all find out who the offical
owner of Kakay's sweet, pure kaka-heart happens to be. " Vegeta rattled off.
" HA! YOU'RE ON OUJI! " Chi-Chi laughed in his face, " If there's one thing Goku and I share it's a loyalty to each
other! I never went after anyone while he was dead and I know he won't turn on me! "
" Maybe he was never on your side to begin with. "
" ... "
" ... "
" Don't test me, Ouji. " Chi-Chi said flatly, pointing at him.
" Hmmph. " Vegeta snickered, then teleported away and re-teleported back in with the time machine in tow, " Well,
here she is. " he patted it.
" Where's Mirai? " Chi-Chi asked.
" Doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo. " Mirai whistled as he climbed down the ladder, then lept off, ready to hop into his
time machine only to instead plummet 10 feet to the ground and leaving a large hole in the floor. He weakly raised his
arm above the entrence to the hole, " Oww.... "
" Beats me. " Vegeta shrugged, " He had it sitting by some ladder. " the ouji hopped inside the machine and programed
it, " 100 years, same location...there! " he beamed.
" Data successfully entered. " the computer said.
" Yes, I AM successful, aren't I! " Vegeta boasted, then hopped back out.
" Don't you think 100 years is a bit much. " Chi-Chi said, suspicous.
" Nonsense, Onna. Kakay and I, with our slow aging metabolisms, are likely not to get old and grey until we're at
least in our 200's. " Vegeta laughed.
" 200'S!! " Chi-Chi gawked, " But, humans are lucky to live up to _100_!! And if I were to die even before I reached
that mark-- "
" --it would mean I would get over a century of sweet, pleasing kaka-time. " Vegeta finished the sentence.
" ERRR, BUT THAT'S NOT RIGHT! " Chi-Chi yelled.
" Yeah, well, tell that to future me when you get there. Since he's probably had 100 more years worth of training
than I have I'm sure he'll be happy to beat the shock out of you. " Vegeta smirked as Chi-Chi climbed in, " And while
you're busy bothering future me, present me will be busy bothering 'Kakay'. " the short ouji grinned at Goku, who was
still wiping his tear-stained cheeks, " Isn't he cute? "
" GOKU YOU'RE COMING WITH ME! " Chi-Chi shouted.
" *sniffle*, but Chi-chan, *sniff* you can only fit ONE person in the time machine. " Goku pointed out. Chi-Chi
looked around and sweatdropped.
" So I see... " she trailed off, " Let me get this straight, if I go into the future to make sure future Goku's
safe MY Goku will become unprotected prey to that manipulating little Ouji, but if I stay here then there's a chance
future Goku could end up with the same fate!? " Chi-Chi exclaimed.
" Yeah, pretty much. " Vegeta shrugged, then smirked evilly, " Can't be two different places at once, can ya, Onna? "
" We'll just see about THAT. " Chi-Chi said as she closed the hatch, " GOKU GO LOCK YOURSELF IN YOUR ROOM AND
DO NOT ALLOW VEGETA IN UNTIL I RETURN NO MATTER WHAT!! "
" Yes Chi-chan! " Goku nodded, then dashed upstairs to his bedroom where he promptly locked himself in.
Chi-Chi blew a raspberry in Vegeta's direction, " See ya Ouji! "
" Whatever you say, Onna. " Vegeta folded his arms as Chi-Chi started up the machine and it along with herself
disappeared. Vegeta chuckled as he climbed the stairs up to Goku's bedroom, " Whatever you say. "
" WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!! " Chi-Chi screamed as the
time machine hurtled through the space-time vortex. She let out a yelp as the machine suddenly came to a complete stop.
Chi-Chi leaned over the side of the chair and promptly threw up.
" OHHHhhhhHHhh, I forgot how much I hate that. " she groaned, then sat up in surprise to find she was still in the
living room of the Son home with one exception; the entire inside of the house had been redecorated brand new and yet was
covered in a light layer of dust. Chi-Chi hopped out of the time machine, " WHAT HAPPENED HERE?! " she gawked as she wandered
about the room. She grinned at the large sofa, " It's BEAUTIFUL! " Chi-Chi exclaimed as she sat down, then instantly leaped
back up on her feet, " It's DISGUSTING! " she quickly brushed the dust off herself, " Like no one's been here for YEARS...but
, then where would Goku be? " Chi-Chi blinked, then let out a shriek as a sudden horrific image appeared in her mind. She
quickly shook it off and dashed outside, " GOKU! GOKU ARE YOU OUT HERE!! " Chi-Chi called out, then noticed several objects
on a hill nearby the house. She grinned and dashed towards them, only to screech to a halt to find six large headstones. She
gulped, recognizing nearly all of them, " Gohan, Videl, Pan, Goten, Parisu. " Chi-Chi gulped as she read the first names
outloud, then paused, " "Parisu"? My little Goten got married! " she grinned, " It must have been a BEAUTIFUL wedding! "
Chi-Chi mused, then glanced over at the dusty stone on the far left, " Please don't tell me-- "
" "Son Chi-Chi Gyu-Mao. 737-823".... " she mumbled off in shock, " That's 86 years...not even 90! And if I'm 100
years in the future than that means that Goku's been here without me for more than half a century now!!! " Chi-Chi gulped,
" I gotta find him! I'll show that Ouji that my Go-chan hasn't deserted me for him just because I'm gone! " she said, then
flew up into the air only to quickly fall back down flat on her back.
Chi-Chi sweatdropped, " I haven't really learned to fly yet...stupid me. " she said sarcastically, then got up, " NOW
how am I gonna find him... " she trailed off, then perked up, " A-HA! KINTO'UN!! " she shouted into the sky as the familiar
little yellow cloud came flying down to her. It screeched to a halt in a friendly manner, " Ha! I'm such a genius! " Chi-Chi
clasped her hands together, then hopped on the cloud, " YOU'RE DEAD, OUJI! " she laughed, then sweatdropped as she fell
straight through the cloud and onto the floor, twitching, " You've got to be kidding me....I'M _INPURE_ NOW!! " Chi-Chi
snapped at the cloud, which just flew away, " HEY! HEY WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU'RE GOING! JUST BECAUSE I'M ON A MISSION TO
ANNIHILATE THAT OUJI MEANS I'M EVIL!!! COME BACK HERE!! " she shouted, then sighed, " I guess there's only one other way to
get going... " Chi-Chi cringed, glancing over her shoulder at the time-machine in the house, " ....I hate this. "
" I REALLY REALLY HATE THIIIIIIIIS!!! " she screamed as the time machine hurtled through the air. She spotted a tiny
pink dot below her, " There it is! " Chi-Chi brightened up, then slammed on the brakes and nearly flew through the
windshield had she not only buckled herself in but also tied herself into the chair with some duct-tape from home. The
time machine landed gracefully on the sand and she got out of the vehicle, " The Kame house! If Goku decided not to live
at home without me he's BOUND to be here with Kuririn's family...whoever's left of them. " she looked around. She peeked
inside one of the windows and sighed with relief to find there was something cooking on the stove, the TV was on, and it
looked like it a normal lived in home.
" Weh-heh-hehll, who do we have here! " Chi-Chi froze, then quickly spun around and slapped the person behind her.
She gasped in surprise, " ROSHI!! "
Muten Roshi adjusted his sun-glasses in shock, " OHH! Chi-Chi!! How did you get here! "
" YOU DIRTY OLD MAN! HOW CAN I BE DEAD AND YOU STILL BE ALIVE! " Chi-Chi roared in his face.
" I drank that magic potion that keeps you from getting old. Physically anyway. " he explained.
" ERRR, THAT'S NOT RIGHT! " Chi-Chi snapped, then added, " --AND KEEP YOUR UGLY FACE AWAY FROM MY BOTTOM!!! "
" Hey, hey! I didn't know it was you! " Roshi put his hands up in defense.
Chi-Chi sent him a death-glare, " And what is THAT supposed to mean!! "
" Uhh...say, what are you doing here anyway? And in Mirai Trunks's time machine too. " Roshi said, eager to change
the subject before Chi-Chi became physically violent.
" Hmm? " Chi-Chi blinked, then took a moment to gather her thoughts; her recent explosion of anger fuzzying out any
other thoughts, " Oh. I made a bet with the Ouji and I'm here to check on Goku, you know, to see how he's doing. " she
said, looking in the doorway.
" Oh Goku's not here. " Chi-Chi paused and glanced down to see Turtle.
" Wha--what to you mean "Goku's not here"? " she said, worried.
" I mean, he was here for a while. " Turtle explained, " After you died he only stayed in his house about another
week before moving out. "
" MOVING OUT?! WHERE!? "
" Poor boy...he came here but the sting was just too much for him. " Roshi shook his head, " He left after 3 days
and we haven't seen him since. "
" TWO DAYS?! YOU MEAN YOU HAVEN'T SEEN GOKU IN OVER 50 YEARS!!! WHAT KIND OF FRIENDS ARE YOU!!! " Chi-Chi yelled
at them. Roshi and the turtle cringed.
" It's not like he haven't tried to contact him. You know, phoning him and the like. Don't know where he went.
Mostly everybody else is long gone by now. " Roshi shrugged.
" We tried calling Capsule Corp recently to see if he was there so we could wish him a Happy Birthday but all I
got was this voice speaking some language I've never heard before and then hang up. " Turtle said.
" So you know he's NOT at Capsule Corp with the Ouji? " Chi-Chi begged.
" No, I mean, there's always a possiblity...aww who am I kidding I have no clue! " Roshi said, then laughed.
Chi-Chi just growled, frustrated, and folded her arms, " Is there anyone else living with you two morons here? "
" Juuhachigou's upstairs but I wouldn't try to-- " Turtle started.
" She is? GREAT! " Chi-Chi ran inside, " That's right, Juu is part cyborg! She must age slower than normal human
begins! SHE can tell me where Goku is! I mean, she was created to seek and destory him, right? "
" NO! CHI-CHI WAIT! DON'T GO UP THERE! " Roshi shouted as he ran up the stairs after her, then stopped to pant,
" Poor old legs... "
" YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!! "
" ...can't say I didn't warn her. "
" AHH! " Chi-Chi zipped out of the room and slammed the door behind her, " Wha--wha--wha--wha-- "
" You see what happens when you jump in without thinking first. " Roshi said.
" HA! You should be one to talk, master. " Turtle said skeptically.
" Wha--wha--wha--wha-- " Chi-Chi stuttered in fright.
" Like you said, Juuhachigou is part android and part human. That's why she didn't exactly, err, " Turtle paused
to think of a good word, " age gracefully. "
" GRACEFULLY?!! SHE LOOKS LIKE SOME KIND OF ROBOTIC MUTANT! HER ARMS ARE THE SAME AND HER FACE LOOKS OLD BUT NOT
HER HAIR AND PARTS OF HER SKIN ARE WRINKLY AND THE OTHER PARTS LOOK YOUNG AND--AND---my God that was creepy! " Chi-Chi
said in a whole breath.
" Shh, I'll get her for you. " Roshi said, then poked his head in the doorway, " Juu, a friend's here to see you? "
" Really? Who is it? " she asked.
" It's Chi-Chi. " Roshi said slowly, " She wants to talk to you about Goku. "
" Oh that's WONDERFUL. Once Kuririn comes back from the food shopping we can all sit at the kitchen table and have
tea. " she said with a senile look in her eye.
" Uhh, right. Sure. " Roshi nodded, then pushed Chi-Chi in, " Go on, talk to her. " he said, then whispered, " But
be careful, her mind's not what it used to be. Afraid aging with robotic technology in her brain did something to her
over the years. " he looked left, then right, " She's convinced Kuririn and Marron are still alive, humor her oh-kay. "
" But that's TERRIBLE! " Chi-Chi gawked.
" We like to use this Kuririn hand puppet for persuasion sake. " Turtle held up a life-sized Kuririn hand-puppet.
Chi-Chi sweatdropped.
" You're kidding, right? "
" Oh Juuhachigou, honey, I'm going downstairs to make us some cocoa. " Turtle moved the hand-puppet while Roshi
pretended to speak in Kuririn's voice.
" That's lovely. Did you hear that Chi-Chi, Kuririn's going to make us some drinks. " Juuhachigou smiled.
Chi-Chi sweatdropped again, " Umm, Juuhachigou? " she asked, walking closer to where the android was laying
underneath the covers of the bed, " Do you happen to know where Goku is? I need to find him so that--umm,--I can bring
him back here so we can all have some tea. "
" Oh yes, Goku's always wandering off like that on you isn't he. " she smiled.
Chi-Chi laughed nervously, " Heh-heh-heh...yeah. "
" Didn't you hear, he's living with Vegeta now, isn't that splendid. "
Chi-Chi froze. She felt like a huge 1000 ton of bricks had just fallen ontop of her and she was then sucked into
a swirling black hole, " ...what...did you say? " she squeaked out.
" Vegeta's been keeping it very hush hush this whole time. Nobody knows about it. " Juuhachigou smiled in a senile
type of way. She pointed to the side of her head, " If I concentrate hard enough I can listen to their phone conversations
through the satellite in my brain. "
" So.....he's at....the OUJI'S? " Chi-Chi said, still in shock.
" As far as I know, yes. " Juuhachigou nodded, " They're each other's constant companion from what I've heard. Just
like Kuririn and I. " she slowly sat up then called downstairs, " IS THAT COCOA READY YET KURIRIN! "
" Uhh, COMING DEAR!! " Roshi shouted, then froze and shouted again in Kuririn's voice, " COMING DEAR! "
" I, I've gotta go. " Chi-Chi said, her whole body shaking.
" Aww, won't you stay for some lunch? " Juuhachigou asked.
" NO! Gotta go! Gotta find Goku! " Chi-Chi said, then dashed down the stairs and past Roshi and the turtle.
" Hey Chi-Chi? Where ya going? " Roshi called out after her, " Kitchen's this way! "
" CAPSULE CORP! GOTTA HURRY! GOKU'S IN BIG TROUBLE! " Chi-Chi screamed in fear as she lept into the time machine
and blasted off in the direction of West City.
Turtle shook his head, " Poor kid, she's in deep denial. "
" Not to mention a big surprise. " the Kuririn hand-puppet said. Turtle narrowed his eyes at Roshi, who just
shrugged at him.
" What? WHAT! "
" Oh sweet merciful heavens NO! " Chi-Chi gasped in horror as she stood at the outer edge of West City, now
labelled "VeggieLand". She floated into the town still inside the time machine. The entire city was redone with saiyajin
technology and now looked like someone had taken a small chunk of Bejito-sei and smushed it onto Earth.
" What a shame. "
" I feel so sorry for her. "
" That poor girl. "
Chi-Chi stopped and looked over her shoulder to see a trio of citizens gossiping to each other.
" Umm, excuse me for asking, but what poor girl? " Chi-Chi said curiously.
" The poor girl Mr. Oujisama keeps locked up in his castle. " one woman said.
" You can hear her singing from time to time whenever she's out in the garden. Poor thing. " the other woman said
sadly.
" I hear he built some kind of laser fence to zap her if she tries to get out. " the man exclaimed. The two woman
stared at him for a moment, then burst into laughter.
" Girl? " Chi-Chi scratched her head.
" Well, we've never seen her. " the man said.
" NOBODY'S ever seen her. " the first woman retorted.
" Nobody except for Mr. Oujisama himself! " the second woman nodded, " She seems happy though. At least her songs
sound happy anyway. "
" Yeah well you never know. He might be threatening her not to sing anything too depressing. You know, as to not
arouse suspicion in the public eye. " the man shook his head.
" Whoever she is I commend her for lasting this long locked in there with him. " the first woman said.
" _I_ wouldn't mind being locked in with him somewhere. " the second woman smirked.
" Oh brother. " the man rolled his eyes. Chi-Chi flew the time machine off into the city.
" Singing girl? What singing girl? " she mumbled, getting closer to Capsule Corp. She shrieked to see it now
labeled Prince Vegeta-sama's Castle, " YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME! " Chi-Chi gawked.
" Yo huuna qe pi los wefa la la ra. Qui per de per da splaw aw aw paaak. "
Chi-Chi froze at the sound an unrecognizable language being beautifully sung by a VERY familiar voice, " That's
no girl--THAT'S GOKU!! " she smiled with relief, then ran towards the bushes the voice was coming from, " GOKU! OH GOKU
IS THAT YOU I'M SO HAPPY I FOUND-- " her jaw dropped to the floor.
" --you? " the large saiyajin finished, cocking his head. Chi-Chi looked Goku up and down in shock. He looked exactly
the same as the one she had just left at home 15 minutes ago with the exception that this one was wearing a fluffy pink robe
, a pair of Veggie-ish white gloves, slippers, and a light-pink ribbon tied head-band style on the large saiyajin's head. A
puffy bow hung from the front right side of the ribbon.
" Oh dear Lord what did that Ouji do to you? " Chi-Chi gawked, grabbing him by the hands, " Oh Goku are you alright?
Just look at you!....hey, this isn't that servant-maid outfit the Ouji made you. " she blinked, surprised.
" Yaa na porqa dii quo wah? " Goku raised an eyebrow, slightly worried.
Chi-Chi hugged him, " My poor baby! " she cried, " Wearing some sick Ouji-created Ouji-clothes and speaking something
that's not English. "
" Saiyago? " Goku replied, pulling her off of him.
" Yeeeeee...ah. " Chi-Chi sweatdropped, " Listen Goku! We've got to get out of here! YOU'VE got to get out of here! "
she grabbed him by the sleeve and attempted to pull him off the lawn. He just stood there, confused.
" Err, right. Goku, we have to leave. You know--LEAVE? " Chi-Chi said, nervous, " It's ENGLISH. You...speak...
...ENG-A-LISH. "
" Watta nah dake bo unkawa! " Goku pulled his arm away and rubbed it.
" Oh my God he's forgotten how to speak english. " Chi-Chi slapped herself on the forehead in shock. She turned back
towards him, " Goku, I need you to listen to--HEY WHERE ARE YOU GOING! " she yelled as he backed up, frightened. He turned
his back to her, dropped the watering can in his hand and ran towards the door, " GOKU! GOKU!! " Chi-Chi screamed, then
cringed and bit her lip, " OHHHHhhhHHHhhhHHh...KAKARROTTO! "
Goku froze and turned back towards her.
Chi-Chi sweatdropped.
" This, is going to be tougher than I thought... "
*****************************************************************************************************************************
8:29 PM 9/13/2002
Chuquita: And so ends part 1 of "Veggie Wins?!"
Vegeta: (Mr. Poetic) Ahh, tis a very sweet nectar from the soda can of victory.
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) ...what?
Vegeta: Nevermind.
Goku: (cocks an eyebrow at the fic) How come future me only speaks Veggie-ese?
Vegeta: Saiyago.
Goku: Veggie-ese.
Vegeta: (grumbles) Fine. "Veggie-ese".
Goku: (to Chu) CAN future me speak english?
Chuquita: I'd rather not ruin the plotline Son-san.
Goku: (pouts) Awww...
Vegeta: (snickers) If future Kakay only speaks in our native tongue does that mean I'm the only one who can communicate with
him! I'm the only one who can tell what he's saying! I'm the only one he can understand!!
Goku: (sweatdrops) That's kinda scary...
Vegeta: What did you say, Kakarrotto?
Goku: Uhhh, nothing little Veggie. (cheesy grin)
Vegeta: Hmmph. (stubbornly folds his arms) Yeah, it better have been.... (perks up) SAY! We get to do that "Ask Kakarrotto"
thing in this story's Corner, don't we Chu?
Chuquita: (watches Goku wildly wave his arms about and shaking his head no) Actually, yes Veggie. We do.
Vegeta: (cheers) WHOO-HOO!
Goku: (groans) Oh no...
Vegeta: (grins) Here that audiance! You get to ask Kakarrotto personal and secretive questions and he's FORCED to answer
them!
Chuquita: (sweatdrop) It can be ANY kind of question, Vedge.
Vegeta: Yeah yeah yeah. (rubs his hands together) Oooh this is going to be a good one. I mean, with all the fans I've got I'm
sure they'll think up some WONDERFUL questions to ask my large peasant. (smirks at Goku, who pales)
Goku: Veggie's really starting to scare me Chu-sama. (sweatdrop)
Chuquita: He's ALWAYS been a little scary, Son. [pats him on the back] Don't worry though, I'm sure you'll be able to take
any questions the audiance can throw at you....(thinks) I'm pretty sure they call the saiyajin language saiyago. Is that
right Vedge?
Vegeta: (shrugs) Don't ask me it's your story.
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) So I could call it Saiyaish or Saiyanese or Saiyanch and you wouldn't care?
Vegeta: (snorts) OF COURSE I WOULD CARE!
Chuquita: Then what IS it called?
Vegeta: ...
Chuquita: (groans) Oh my God he doesn't know the name of his own native tongue.
Goku: How embarassing.
Vegeta: (glares at them both; then goes back to thinking)
Chuquita: Oh! Son-san! I just saw 3/4 of the Mirai Trunks special!
Goku: (grins) Oh yeah! I was in that...umm, I died in that one...didn't I, Chu?
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) You had less air-time than Veggie did! I haven't seen the end since I only downloaded 3 of the 5
files I need to view the whole thing (it got too late and I have to go to bed) but someone in a review told me once that
Veggie was crying at Son's funeral and yet there wasn't even such an event in the 30-some minutes I saw of this special.
I know it must happen somewhere I got a screenshot of Veggie in his little black suit crying his eyes out. (confused)
Goku: (frowns) I don't like it when Veggie cries. It makes me hurt inside.
Vegeta: (glowing bright red) (chokes out) How bad?
Goku: (sadly) Really really REAL bad!
Vegeta: (grins, then faints; falling out of his chair)
[Chu & Son sweatdrop]
Chuquita: Remember audiance, if you have a question to ask Son-kun then let us know in the review! Or e-mail me. Whichever
you prefer. And also I have a lil request to ask of everybody. I'm planning on writing a parody of movie 12 in the future.
Goku: (happily) That's the one with Goggie in it!
Chuquita: So if anyone knows where I can download a copy of the movie or even a script I would really appreciate it. If
no one knows where to find either thing I'll just go on the various summaries I've read of it. This fic will probably have
the same feel to it as the 3 Majin Buu episodes I parodied a while ago. (Eps 273-275) (to Son) Guess that wraps up Part 1.
Goku: (grins) That it does!
Chuquita: (cheerfully) We'll see you next time when Son Goku answers some of your questions in the next Corner along with
the appearance of future Veggie in part 2 of "Veggie Wins?!"
Vegeta: Questions are made for answering. (grins) Right, servant-maid?
Goku: Whatever you say little Veggie.
Vegeta: (smirks) Call me V-sama.
Goku: (sweatdrops) Whatever you say, "V-sama".
