(A/N) This takes place right after the Majin Buu Saga. Bura is not born yet, and Trunks and Goten are eight and seven.

************************************************************************

Edward takes in a big breath of air and looks around at the neon lit city below him, "Isn't this great, Kaka-Chan? Look at all the lights! It looks like the stars are on the ground!"

Goku sighs, fingering the handcuffs that still connected the two saiyajins together, "That's nice, Eddy. Now can we go back to Capsule Corps? I've heard enough wise cracks about us being "such a cute couple!" Blech!"

Edward says, "But I wanna do something fun!"

Goku yelps, "But we just maxed out half your credit cards at the arcades, the restaurants, and the theme park! What more do you want to do?!"

Edward points down towards the slums of the city, "I wanna see what that place is like!"

Vegeta mutters, Well, at least it's safer than staying with Edward alone.

Goku says, hesitantly, "Well..."

Edward cheers, "Yay! Let's go!" He starts flying towards the ground at full speed, but lands daintily on the sidewalk, while Goku plows into the pavement.

Goku moans, "Owww...."

Edward asks, "Kaka-Chan, are you alright?"

The larger saiyajin glares up at him, "Next time, tell me before you start flying at full speed towards the ground like that."

Edward says meekly, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."

A voice from behind them says, "Awww... What a cute couple of saps. I wish I had a camera right about now."

Goku stands up, and they look to see a gang of punks leaning on the wall of an alley near them. Goku frowns at them and starts pulling Edward away, "Come one, Eddy. Let's get to a nicer part of town. There's only trash here."

The boss of the gang, a man with a leather vest and a pink mohawk, starts walking towards them and demands, "Who're you callin' trash?!" His gang begins to surround the two saiyajins. Edward looks around in fear and clings even closer to the taller saiyajin.

Goku declares, "I know about people like you. My wi-...My ex-wife told me that your kind lives to hurt people."

The boss smirks, "Well, to each his own. Isn't that right boys?" The gang hoots and cheers at his remark.

Edward freaks out and squeezes Goku's right arm, "Kaka-Chan! I'm scared!"

Vegeta watches in anger at the cowardly way Edward is acting, and his blood begins to boil.

The boss says mockingly, "What's a matter baby? Don't you like us? Or maybe you're just weak."

Edward's eyes flash, "Weak? You called me WEAK?!" He turns ssj2 and yells, "I'LL SHOW YOU WHO'S WEAK!!!" He charges at the gang around him and starts beating the hooha out of them. Goku merely stands there, wondering whether this is Eddy or not.

Then the mob surrounds the two saiyajins again, trying to intimidate them by numbers. Vegeta glares at them and powers up, blowing all the punks away.

The fight is over, and the few people who can still walk, scurry away like rats, leaving their comrades lying on the ground.

Vegeta turns to Goku and says expectantly, "Well?"

Goku asks stupidly, "What?"

"GET ME MADDER BEFORE EDDY TAKES CONTROL OF ME AGAIN, YOU BAKA!"

Goku smiles, finally getting it, "I think you're doing fine on your own...Veggie-Chan."

Vegeta orders, "Call me that more, Kakarot!"

Goku cocks his head, "Why? Do you like it?"

"No... I HATE IT! THAT'S THE POINT!"

Goku says sweetly, "Nah, I think you like it! Isn't that right, Veggie- Chan?"

Vegeta stomps his foot, "I DON'T LIKE IT! I'M NOT A CHAN TYPE OF PERSON! I'M AN OUJI TYPE OF PERSON! THE GREAT AND POWERFUL SAIYAJIN NO OUJI!"

Goku smiles, "Yeah, the one that needs a nice, big HUG!"

Vegeta frantically waves his arms in front of him, "No! No! NO! No more intimate touching!" But Goku ignores him and hugs him anyway. Vegeta turns a deep shade of red.

Goku asks, "Did I get you mad enough?"

The smaller saiyajin whispers, "Kakarot... Get off now, before I kill you."

Goku chirps happily, "Okay!" He lets go, letting Vegeta drop to the ground.

Vegeta yelps, "Oof! Kakarot! Why I outta-"

"Thank me?"

"NO!! Although you have given me a sufficient amount of anger to hold out for at least a few hours."

Goku frowns, "What the heck are you talking about? Who was that Eddy anyway?"

Vegeta sighs, "This'll take a while."

************************************************************************

Bulma, Mirai, and Trunks look from the bushes, waiting for Piccolo to show up... and walk right into their trap...

Trunks, "Are you sure this is going to work?"

Bulma yells, "Of course it is! I have this perfectly planned out! Once he reads the letter that I sent to him, he'll come here and after a long wait, he'll get thirsty. Then noticing the potion we labeled as lemonade, he'll drink it all up. Then we'll see if the potion really does work or not! Piccolo should be arriving any minute now."

Two hours later. Bulma says, "...Any minute now..."

Mirai and Trunks glare at her. Mirai demands, "Exactly what did you put on that letter?!"

Bulma says, "I think it went something like... "Dearest Mr. Piccolo. I'm your greatest secret admirer and it would be my dream to go out on a date with you. Please meet me at the Yasashi Mountain area at 9 o'clock on May the 14th."

The two boys stare at her in disbelief. Mirai says meekly, "Mom, there may be a couple "little" problems with that."

Bulma demands, "What are you talking about?"

Trunks growls, "First, Piccolo has no secret admirers and he knows it. Second, Piccolo doesn't have a gender, so why would he want to go out on a date with anyone? And third, this is April, Mother. You sent him an invitation for a month from now!"

Mirai groans, "I hate to say it, but I think you're losing your touch."

Bulma glowers at both of them, "Well, if you're so smart then why don't you think of a plan to get him over here?!"

Mirai and Trunks look at each other, and Mirai quickly says, "Maybe you should write another letter, Mom."

************************************************************************

Goku says, "So basically you stole Eddy's body from him?"

Vegeta says defensively, "It's not stealing! It's...uh...survival of the fittest!"

Goku frowns, "And you've never managed to get rid of Eddy, even after all these years?"

Vegeta sulks, turning away from him to look down at the city below them, "It's not like I haven't tried." His mind flashes back to all the exorcism classes he took, the psychiatric sessions, and the plain old banging on the head trick, shouting DIE! DIE! DIE!

Goku lies down onto the roof of the building and asks, "Why didn't you just wish Eddy away, then?"

Vegeta slowly turns towards the younger saiyajin and demands, "What. Did. You. Say?"

Goku says, "Why didn't you just wish-"

Vegeta snaps, "I heard you! It's not like I'm deaf!" But then he thinks, {Wish him away? So simple...and yet so brilliant! Why had I been wasting all my time to wish for immortality when I could have gotten rid of that fool once and for all?! Why didn't I think of this sooner?!}

The ouji points to the sky victoriously and declares, "Yes! I am such a genius!"

Goku sweatdrops, "I don't quite follow."

But Vegeta jerks on the handcuffs and says happily, "Come on, Kakarot! Let's go get those dragonballs!"

Goku says warningly, "Don't get too happy, Veggie-Chan. The dragonballs won't be ready until tomorrow, and meanwhile, we're stuck together."

Vegeta mutters, "Oh yes, I had forgotten about that."

Goku asks, "So what are we going to do until then?"

Vegeta points his finger at Goku, "You, Kakarot, are going to stay with me until we get of that cursed "Eddy." I need someone to keep me mad."

The younger saiyajin flashes his big, sparkly eyes at the ouji and smiles, "You need me?! Oh, Veggie-Chan, that's so sweet of you!" giving Vegeta, yet another, warm hug.

Vegeta turns red from embarrassment and anger, but then gives Goku a thumbs up, "Good work, Kakarot. Keep it up."

Miyanon: Yay! Veggie's back! Can he stay mad long enough to wish Eddy away? Of course, but that wouldn't make a good ending now would it? Find out what happens in the next chapter of Split Ends!
