Okay okay

so that last chapter was a little harsh but she had it coming

besides, my mood tends to reflect in my writing and I was really pissed at my boss when I typed it up, then I realized that I'm also a manager and I had the authority to make him stand outside for two hours freazing his ass off like he did to me the two days prior.

For why I had Trunks fire her, you'll find out in the upcoming chapters. Part of it has to do that Bulma did give him all that extra work on purpose.


And now

armed with shrimp lomein, chocolate pocky, and green tea for me.....

A fresh batch of cheeze fries for Saiyan Serpent......

Butterscotch ice cream for Chibi Mars.......

and popcorn for you loyal reviewers..

Gotunks has her eraser proof armor on and sets to work on this, the latest installment of............

The Space Odyssey: Back to Reallity
Chapter 3
****************************


The metal of the welding mask clamped down. The heat of the ignited welding torch cutting metal, patching metal, and reforming metal. The showers of sparks falling to the ground thirty feet below. The occasional stray bouncing of the hull or dancing along the cement floor. The whirs and buzzes of other machines in the hanger blending in with the sound of welding. Making for a chaotic melody.


The pround Prince, himself, stands in the doorway looking upon the peculiar ship. His eyes transfixed on one spot in peticular. At the top of the ship where his mate has set herself to work. Dressed in her blue overalls and white shirt, heavy gloves protecting her hands. Staring at her with the heavy mask covering her face and the speratic sparks surrounding her. It would be simpler and quicker to use your ki. Not that he would tell her.


Her hand wavers once with the welding and she shuts off the flame. Lifting the helmet to show the grease smudges on her cheeks, she looks to the doorway where her prince stands, as egotistical as always. She doesn't even bother to set down the torch.


"Have you come to share your opinion Vej?" She asks with obvious fatigue in her voice.


"Those brats get a completed gravity room before I do. Here I've been waiting to train the little brat who's getting more Saiya-jin like by the day. He's gonna have a true Saiya-jin upbringing."


"You mean he's becoming moe like you every day. And Trunks and Pan have done everything internal on this ship. All I'm checking is the outer shell to make sure it's ready for flight. Although I did help Pan setup an interesting program in the gravity room."


" That brat won't let any one in there. I could figure out a way to get in to that room..." He begins to say to himself.


"Don't even think about it. I will start building your gravity room as soon as they leave. I start to wonder though, how did Tsuragi end up such a lttle schemer......so much like you? Trunks and Pan where always so calm and sweat."


"You never trained with them. and the brat takes after his Grandfather." Vejiita states a-matter-of-factly, and begins to head to the door.


"Vej, what would my Saiya-jin name be. Say I were to have lived on your home planet?"


Stopping in his tracks, taking moment to think, he looks back to her. Only to find her with her mask down, welding again, not really expecting a response from him. He then turns back to leave the building. As he reaches the doorway, he hears her voice behind him.


"Vejiita? Where you actually gonna answer me for a change?"


"You blew your chance onna." He says, showing no sign of emotion.


"Please tell me Vej?"


He turns to her once again.


"Fine...........I would name you Ringo."


"Apple? That's so sweat Veji!" She says with a sweat smile.


He smirks at her and continues.


"Yeah! You're just like an apple. No matter how tasty you look on the outside. Always good anough to eat....................... There always tends to be a worm on the inside."


Growling in anger, she pitches her mask at him. He quickly ducks out the door. Realizing her mistake, a moment to late, she throws down her welding torch and climbs down to the ground. She brushes her hands on her pants and takes a seat a one of the numerous computers.


"I'll teach you Vejiita. I wonder if Gohan could teach me how to shoot a ki blast?"





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



I know...........ou don't have to say it............but you still have to admit........

Vejiita can tease his mate all he wants...........it's not like it's illegal....
