FlameRaven: Thanks for the excellent review!
KumikoVegeta: Sneezing, in Japanese Culture, means that someone is talking about you. Remember the scene where Goku is traveling along snake way, just after being killed by Piccolo when Raditz arrived? Someone, Kirillin I think, was talking about Goku, and the next scene cut to Goku flying along snake way, and he sneezed. Another example is when Future Trunks and Goku are having their discussion after Goku landed back on Earth. They were talking about how Bulma and Yamucha didn't get together after all, then the scene changed to a shot from behind Yamucha, he sneezed real big, and Bulma said. "Well Excuse you!" (Or at least in the funmation translations that's what she said) then the scene cut back out to Goku and Trunks. Frankly, I'm surprised that they kept the scene in at all; it makes no real sense in the English. translation. Must have been used for filler or something. Of course, in the western part of the world, our ancestors believed that sneezing was to expel evil spirits from your body. "God Bless You!!" I think that Vegeta abandons the Gallic Gun Attack as less efficient as both his Big Bang, and his Final Flash attacks since he never used them it at all after he fired it at Goku when they first met. The only other time was when he destroyed Arlia in episode seven. (Funmation)
Vegeta Jr.: With Roger, as far as learning the Kamehameha, I wanted to convey that Rogalle, Roger's previous incarnation, was a master of the technique before he died. So Roger didn't so much learn it, as he did remember how to do it. The Big Bang attack may have been jumping the gun a bit though. However, my opinion is that if a person has enough ki, and can sense the ebbs and flows of ki in other people, then it shouldn't be that hard to emulate a ki attack when you've seen it performed. Although, results of the strength of the attack may vary from user to user. Of course, I can also see it as a source of pride thing, and Saiyans are quite proud, as to having their own, unique, set of ki attacks, which is why you don't see Vegeta doing a Masenko Ha, or Goku doing a final flash. I think it's a matter of pride, rather than an inability to master the technique.
Sholio: My understanding, from the dubbed GT episodes I've seen, is that a Saiyan needs his tail to achieve Super Saiyan Four. Actually, they don't call it Super Saiyan, the call it Super Goku Four. Vegeta had to cheat a bit in order to achieve it. Bulma apparently isolated the light wave length that comes off the moon, called brutz rays, and hit Vegeta with a concentrated beam of it, which grew Vegeta's tail back, temporarily, and caused his transformation into the Golden Ozaru, and from there to Super Saiyan four. SOOOOO... I need a Super Saiyan Four Vegeta therefore, he needs a tail. Goku reacquired his tail in a pretty painful manner. Rou Kaioshin and Kaiobito pulled it out of him with a pair of pliers. Youch!!
Luna Inverse: No I didn't make it up, I adopted it from several other fan fics I've read. It seems to be the accepted name.
On to the story! +++++++++++++++
The evening sky was lit up like full day, then the light died down. Where Yambia and Roger once stood, now stands one Saiyan with far more power. He/She seemed to be in a dilemma.
"Should it be Rogebia? That sounds stupid. Yambger? Umm.. No. What about Robia? Ok, that's better." He/She was thinking. "Robia it is. Still kind of Dorky though. Doesn't have near the bite that "Gotenks" or "Gogeta" or "Vegetto" has. Oh well, not much you can do about that I suppose."
"I wonder what I look like?" Robia mentally asked as he/she powered up and headed for a nearby lake. Robia landed and looked at his/her reflection. Robia's height seem to fall in between Yambia and Rogers. Yambia being tall for a woman, or at least for an Earth woman, at 5' 11", and Roger at 6' 3". His/Her face seemed to favor Roger more than Yambia, but the features were softer. His/her overall form was more feminine, including breasts, and wider hips. Robia flew back to the field where they had spared with the Nameks. "Here's the real test then. Just how much stronger is this form than both our individual forms? Robia began to power up.. Eeeeeaaaaahhhhh!!! A red aura formed around Robia. "Wow! This is fantastic! I'm almost to the point where Vegeta turned Super Saiyan! A little more. What did Vegeta say? The transformation usually happens as a result of some need, or emotional level, protecting loved ones?" Suddenly, Robia's head was filled with memories of Kress, and the thought of him being shot through the chest by Frieza'a henchmen. Feelings for the Planet Vegeta, and the fiend Frieza laughing as it blew up. EEEEEEEAAAAAAAAARRRRRGGHHHH!!! Robia's hair stood straight up, flashed gold for a few seconds, his/her eyes turned turquoise, then back to black. Robia fell to his/her knees panting.
"Almost! I almost had it.." Robia panted out. Robia immediately brought his/her hand to his/her throat as the dual voices startled him/her. "Whoa! That's a little freaky." Robia said out loud. Robia had regained her ki and stood up when a sudden thought hit her. Taking a look around to make sure nobody was around; Robia looked down and pulled the front of her sweatpants out.
"Well damned, that's cute! Well, if anyone tells me to go fuck myself, I'm fully prepared!" Robia laughed and released his/her sweatpants. "Ok, I wonder if anyone at the village wants to spar?" Robia powered up and flew off towards the Namek Village.
Back with the Supreme Kai, Goku and Vegeta had just returned. They both fell to their knees, after regaining their normal forms, panting in exhaustion. The Supreme Kai looked worried. "Goku, Vegeta, I've been monitoring the ki levels on this planet and something very, very strange happened about ten minutes ago!.
"What is it Kaioshin?" Vegeta asked.
"Well, Roger's and Yambia's ki levels winked out, just when a much larger ki level seemed to just appear." Kaioshin explained.
Both Vegeta and Goku stretched their senses out to take in all the ki levels on the planet and there was one relatively large level flying towards the Namek Village in the area they had left before. Neither one of them could feel Roger or Yambia.
"What the hell is going on out there?" Vegeta demanded.
"I don't know." Goku responded. "Oops!"
The Kai and Vegeta looked at Goku expectantly. "What do you mean, 'Oops!', Goku?" The Supreme Kai finally asked.
"I forgot to take Master Roshi back to Earth. Boy is he going to be pissed!" Goku said. "He's walking towards the Namek Village."
"Kakkarot, you instant transmission us to the Namek village, then go and take that old baka back to Earth. That ki is pretty high, but nothing I can't easily handle." Vegeta said as he placed a hand on Goku's shoulder. The Supreme Kai followed suit. Seconds later, the three of them were standing in the middle of the Namek village, which shocked the residents greatly.
"Umm.. Hi, how is everyone? We don't mean anyone any harm.." Goku said.
"It's okay everyone, nothing to be alarmed about." A voice came from behind them.
"Thanks Mouri!" The Supreme Kai said.
After that, everybody seemed to relax and go about their business. Except for some of the warrior types who wasn't real happy with the thought that a potential enemy could gain access to the middle of their village so easily. One of the more vigilant among them called out.
"Who's that?" as he pointed skyward.
Then a figure dropped out of the sky in front of everyone and landed softly.
"I am Robia, anyone want to spar?" Robia stated.
Dawning realization of whom it was standing before them crept into the conscious minds of Vegeta, Goku, and Kiaoshin. All three stood slack jawed and staring for a long moment.
"WHAT THE HELL DID YOU TWO DO!?!?!?!" Vegeta screamed.
"'We' used the fusion dance and fused." Robia stated.
"B-but a man and a woman fusing. That's not right!" Goku said.
"Why?" Robia said.
Goku scratched the back of his head. "Well, I don't know why, but.."
"BUT IT JUST ISN'T!" Vegeta finished.
"I think I shocked the yokels." Robia thought to his/herself.
"DENDIDAMNEDIT!" Vegeta cussed. "I should have known better than to leave you two alone!"
"Really Vegeta, I don't know what the problem is." Robia stated. "We seem to be working quite well together in here. C'mon, anyone want to take me on? I only have about fifteen minutes left in this form!"
Vegeta Sighed. "Ok, You'll have to find your own way on this one I guess. Kakkarot, go and take that old fart home."
"Huh? Oh yeah, I almost forgot again!" Goku flashed his patented Son family grin. He then used instant transmission to reach Master Roshi's location.
"YOU GREAT GALLUPING ASSHOLE!! How dare you leave me out here all alone! On a strange planet no less! I could have been killed and eaten by Dendi only knows what!" Roshi screamed.
"I'm sorry Master Roshi! Really! I've been trying to save Vegeta's soul and all!!" Goku sweat-dropped.
"Look, just take me home already!" Roshi yelled.
Goku did as he was ordered, but with Master Roshi here, he couldn't lock onto a ki at Kame house. So he locked onto Gohan's, appearing right in front of him.
"Hi Gohan! Look, I don't have time right now; I'm helping The Supreme Kai save Vegeta's immortal soul. Not to mention that but there may be a very strong evil coming soon, you tell everyone they should train really hard. Would you please take Roshi home? Good! Gotta go, love you Gohan! Bye!" Goku teleports away, leaving a stunned and open mouthed Gohan staring dumbly at the space Goku just occupied. "Father?" Gohan finally managed.
Goku appeared back at the Namek Village. "Miss me?" He joked.
"Baka! You were only gone a couple of minutes!" Vegeta snarled, a bit impatient, and a bit still angry with Robia.
"Okay, we're ready to get on with your Redemption Plan Vegeta." Kaioshin stated.
"Well that would be just damned dandy, except I can't leave the androgynous one over there alone for two minutes that they don't find some sort of trouble to be in!" Vegeta complained.
"Hey! We're not that bad! Umm. Are we?" Robia asked.
"Other than trying to kill each other training, blow holes in the side of our spaceship, and learning to fuse without telling me, why no, you're no problem at all!" Vegeta answered, sarcasm dripping off every word.
"Look, maybe we can find something to occupy their time, and keep them out of trouble for a while?" Goku suggested.
Kaioshin thought about it for a couple minutes. "I've got it! The perfect way to keep them busy for a while. Come with me fellows!"
A few minutes later, Kaioshin, Goku, Vegeta, and Robia appeared on Kaioshin's planet in front of a large structure.
"Rou Kaioshin! Come out here please!" Kaioshin called.
Rou Kaioshin appeared in back of them. "Yes? Why are you disturbing my nap?"
"Remember the power up ceremony or spell, or whatever it was that you performed for Gohan some years ago?" The Supreme Kai asked.
Suddenly a bright flash of light distracted everyone. Robia's fusion time was over. Where Robia once stood, sat two, very dazed looking Saiyans.
Yambia and Roger looked at each other. "My, that was... Intimate.." Yambia finally said, smiling.
"Yes it was.. I rather enjoyed it." Roger smiled back.
"Stop making goo-goo eyes at each other and get up!" Vegeta barked, smiling inwardly. "It's a good match." He thought to himself.
"Anyways, can you do the power-up ceremony Rou Kaioshin?" Kaioshin asked again.
"Why yes I can!" The Elder Kai answered.
"What is going on?" Roger asked.
"Rou Kaioshin here is going to use his powers to bring out your hidden powers and abilities. When he is finished, you're powers will be GREATLY enhanced." Kaioshin said.
"What do we have to do?" Yambia asked.
"Well my dear, that's the beauty of it." Rou Kaioshin said looking Yambia up and down lecherously. "All you gotta do is sit there and look pretty!"
"Now see here old man!" Yambia sounded mad. "If you think for."
Suddenly Kaioshin interrupted telepathically. "Yambia, don't get angry with him, his bark is worse than his bite. He's just an old man."
"Well, alright, but if he tries anything funny you will need a help wanted sign for a new Kai around here!" Yambia warned.
"Don't worry, he's like an adolescent boy." Kaioshin consoled. "He knows what he wants, but the thought of actually getting it scares the hell out of him."
"Alright then, he can live, for now." Yambia conceded.
Yambia felt Roger's ki had shot up considerably, his face a mask of anger.
"Hmmm.. Apparently Roger isn't very happy with the old guy's advances either. I wonder if the old guy knows that there are very few things in this universe more dangerous than a jealous Saiyan male? For that matter, I wonder if Roger realizes it?" Yambia thought. "Hehehe. Roger's Jealous!!"
In the meantime, Vegeta had walked around behind Roger and bent in close to his ear so no one else could hear him. "Lower your ki and calm down Roger, that old man is harmless."
Roger's eyes snapped up at the sound of Vegeta's voice. The red haze slowly clearing from his sight. Roger was shocked, there, just for a few seconds, Roger could have easily killed Rou Kaioshin, if it weren't for the fact that he was already dead. Roger had never felt such hate and anger towards any other person in his life! "R-Right Vegeta, I'm sorry, I don't know what came over me."
"I know what came over you, and believe me it's perfectly natural for you now. It's also something that you're going to need to control." Vegeta said. "You and I are going to have to have a long talk when I get the chance Roger. We Saiyans have different birds and bees than do humans." Vegeta smirked.
"Birds and Bees?" Roger looked surprised.
"Yes Roger, I'm sure of it now, you and Yambia have started to bond." Vegeta explained. "It's like marriage, only far stronger."
"Oh.." Roger thought for a few minutes and found that the thought of such a bond with Yambia made him pretty happy.
Vegeta saw Roger start smiling. "We'll talk more about it later." Vegeta walked back to his previous position.
"Sure Vegeta." Roger said.
At the same time Vegeta was talking to Roger, Goku had walked up behind Rou Kaioshin. "I wasn't sure until just now, but I think that Yambia and Roger have started to bond."
"Huh? What's that mean?" Rou Kaioshin asked.
"It means that unless you want a lap full of insane Saiyan male trying his very hardest to rip your lungs out, um. or whatever body part you may wish to keep, you'd be far better off to treat Yambia with far more respect than you would normally treat women." Goku explained. "Understand?"
Goku remembered the first time that his Saiyan side surfaced outside of his Ozaru form. He had taken Chi-Chi to the first dance that Goku had ever been to, just a few months after they had gotten married. Goku's dancing abilities were, well let's just say, below par. After Goku had managed to stomp poor Chi-Chi's toes enough times that she limped, Goku sat down with as much food as he could drag away from the buffet and started eating, Saiyan style. Chi-Chi had stumbled across an old school acquaintance by the name of Toshu, and he meandered over after they had sit down and asked Chi-Chi to dance "for old times sake". Chi-Chi had, at first, refused. But the guy was persistent. Toshu finally turned to Goku and said, "Your friend won't mind? Do you bud?" Well, Goku wasn't entirely sure what in this entire entire marriage thing entailed, other than still being vaguely disappointed that it wasn't food of some sort, and he and Chi-Chi had still not fully bonded, as was Saiyan custom. Although the bond was there, and growing stronger. So, Goku said. "No, I don't mind if she wants to dance with you."
Goku didn't know it at the time, but this pissed Chi-Chi off. Hoping to make Goku jealous enough to understand, she grabbed Toshu by the arm and hauled him onto the dance floor. They danced for about five minutes when things started going sour.
"So Chi-Chi, just who is that loser your with tonight?" Toshu prodded.
"He's not a loser! He's my husband, and I'll thank you not to talk about him in that manner!" Chi-Chi Blustered.
"Dear Kami! Your husband?? What kind of man let's his wife go off dancing with someone he's never seen before?" Toshu said, amazement in his voice.
"Sigh.. A somewhat clueless one.." was all Chi-Chi could say.
"You know Chi-Chi, I had a real thing for you when we were in school. What do you say? Dump the chump and come and live with me." Toshu propositioned.
Toshu had danced himself and Chi-Chi to the other side of the room, well out of earshot of the average man. Particularly with the music thumping, and people talking, and general party noises. But Goku isn't your average man. His sharp Saiyan ears picked up every single word. The last thing that Goku remembered was a red haze floating down over his eyesight.
No sooner had Toshu spit the last of "and live with me" out of his mouth when he was hit with 185 lbs of pissed off Saiyan, in full war mode.
The next thing Toshu realized was that there was a clamp or something around his throat, and he had been pushed up against, no strike that, halfway through the dancehall wall. Breathing was impossible.
"Filthy human scum!! How dare you try and take what belongs to me! I'll destroy you!" Goku stared to power up a small ki attack in his free hand, and pointed it directly at Toshu's head.
"Stop it Goku! Stop it right now!" Chi-Chi's voice broke through the haze. "He's not worth it! Please Goku!"
Goku looked at the man at the end of his arm, who was turning a lovely shade of purple by this time. He let Toshu go, and let the ki attack dissipate harmlessly.
"What happened Chi-Chi?" Goku asked.
"You almost killed him Goku!" Chi-Chi said, eyes wide as saucers. "I've never seen you like that before!"
Goku felt ashamed. "I'm sorry mister. We'd better go Chi-Chi."
Years later, Goku asked Vegeta about the incident. Vegeta explained that there is nothing stronger in the Saiyan DNA than the mating bond. Even in it's early stages. What happened was probably that complete instinct took over and just for a few seconds, Kakkarot emerged and Goku submerged. Kakkarot, naturally, acted as any full blooded Saiyan would act. Fortunately for you, once anyone hears the sound of her voice, or sees the dents on that frying pan, they don't want to flirt with Chi-Chi." Vegeta smirked.
"Yes, I understand quite clearly!" Rou Kaioshin said. The Elder Kai's telepathic abilities weren't as good as The Supreme Kai's, but he was able to follow most of Goku's thoughts on the one time he lost control. '"I will curb my tongue." The Elder Kai concluded.
"Thank you sir!" Goku said happily.
"Whew! These Saiyans are such a touchy lot!" Rou Kaioshin thought.
"Ok everyone, calm down. I wish to apologize to Yambia, and anyone else I may have offended with my poor choice of words. My only excuse is that I don't get out much, and I don't often get to see women. (Well, real women, up close, just through my God Sight, which makes me feel like a stinking peeping tom anyways) Especially women as stunningly beautiful as yourself Yambia." With a bit of magic the Elder Kai inherited from his accidental fusion with a witch many millennia ago, the old Kai made a dozen Mums appear in his hand, and presented them to Yambia. "Forgive me?"
Yambia took the flowers, "Of course you old coot! Just don't let it happen again!"
Roger's ki was still high, but it was decreasing towards normal.
"Good! While you guys get the power-up, Vegeta, Goku, and myself are going back to New Namek (where we might get some peace!) to carry out the rest of Vegeta's redemption plan." The Supreme Kai said.
"Okay, good luck!" The Elder Kai exclaimed. Turning toward Roger and Yambia. "Okay, you two sit right there, that's right, right where Gohan sat. Now the only rules here are no talking, and no sleeping! Just sit still and try and keep eye contact on me as much as possible." The Elder Kai said.
"How long does this take?" Roger wanted to know.
The Supreme Kai and Goku exchanged slightly evil grins. "The first part takes five hours." The Supreme Kai said.
"The first part takes five hours!!" Roger exclaimed.
"The second part takes 20 hours!" Goku said.
Vegeta just stood and smirked." That should keep you two out of trouble for awhile!"
"25 hours!! Are you guys insane! How can you expect two warriors to just sit and do nothing for 25 hours!" Yambia wailed.
"Stop sniveling you two!" Vegeta scolded. "Being a good warrior means far more than one's willingness to throw oneself into battle! Conditioning, and Discipline is required as well!"
Roger and Yambia looked back at their mentor. "Yes Vegeta." They both said.
"Good, consider this part of your discipline training." Vegeta said.
Roger and Yambia sat in slack jawed amazement as Rou Kaioshin began some sort of native rain dance or something, circling around them.
"What's he doing?" Roger asked.
"It's part of the power-up ritual! It's started now so be quiet!" Rou Kaioshin said.
"We're doomed." Yambia stated flatly.
Roger and Yambia watched as The Supreme Kai, Vegeta, and Goku disappeared. Roger wasn't sure if it was a trick of the imagination, but he could have swore that the last thing to disappear was two wide grins, and a smirk, like three Cheshire Cats from Alice in Wonderland.

"Look, maybe we can find something to occupy their time, and keep them out of trouble for a while?" Goku suggested.
Kaioshin thought about it for a couple minutes. "I've got it! The perfect way to keep them busy for a while. Come with me fellows!"
A few minutes later, Kaioshin, Goku, Vegeta, and Robia appeared on Kaioshin's planet in front of a large structure.
"Rou Kaioshin! Come out here please!" Kaioshin called.
Rou Kaioshin appeared in back of them. "Yes? Why are you disturbing my nap?"
"Remember the power up ceremony or spell, or whatever it was that you performed for Gohan some years ago?" The Supreme Kai asked.
Suddenly a bright flash of light distracted everyone. Robia's fusion time was over. Where Robia once stood, sat two, very dazed looking Saiyans.
Yambia and Roger looked at each other. "My, that was... Intimate.." Yambia finally said, smiling.
"Yes it was.. I rather enjoyed it." Roger smiled back.
"Stop making goo-goo eyes at each other and get up!" Vegeta barked, smiling inwardly. "It's a good match." He thought to himself.
"Anyways, can you do the power-up ceremony Rou Kaioshin?" Kaioshin asked again.
"Why yes I can!" The Elder Kai answered.
"What is going on?" Roger asked.
"Rou Kaioshin here is going to use his powers to bring out your hidden powers and abilities. When he is finished, you're powers will be GREATLY enhanced." Kaioshin said.
"What do we have to do?" Yambia asked.
"Well my dear, that's the beauty of it." Rou Kaioshin said looking Yambia up and down lecherously. "All you gotta do is sit there and look pretty!"
"Now see here old man!" Yambia sounded mad. "If you think for."
Suddenly Kaioshin interrupted telepathically. "Yambia, don't get angry with him, his bark is worse than his bite. He's just an old man."
"Well, alright, but if he tries anything funny you will need a help wanted sign for a new Kai around here!" Yambia warned.
"Don't worry, he's like an adolescent boy." Kaioshin consoled. "He knows what he wants, but the thought of actually getting it scares the hell out of him."
"Alright then, he can live, for now." Yambia conceded.
Yambia felt Roger's ki had shot up considerably, his face a mask of anger.
"Hmmm.. Apparently Roger isn't very happy with the old guy's advances either. I wonder if the old guy knows that there are very few things in this universe more dangerous than a jealous Saiyan male? For that matter, I wonder if Roger realizes it?" Yambia thought. "Hehehe. Roger's Jealous!!"
In the meantime, Vegeta had walked around behind Roger and bent in close to his ear so no one else could hear him. "Lower your ki and calm down Roger, that old man is harmless."
Roger's eyes snapped up at the sound of Vegeta's voice. The red haze slowly clearing from his sight. Roger was shocked, there, just for a few seconds, Roger could have easily killed Rou Kaioshin, if it weren't for the fact that he was already dead. Roger had never felt such hate and anger towards any other person in his life! "R-Right Vegeta, I'm sorry, I don't know what came over me."
"I know what came over you, and believe me it's perfectly natural for you now. It's also something that you're going to need to control." Vegeta said. "You and I are going to have to have a long talk when I get the chance Roger. We Saiyans have different birds and bees than do humans." Vegeta smirked.
"Birds and Bees?" Roger looked surprised.
"Yes Roger, I'm sure of it now, you and Yambia have started to bond." Vegeta explained. "It's like marriage, only far stronger."
"Oh.." Roger thought for a few minutes and found that the thought of such a bond with Yambia made him pretty happy.
Vegeta saw Roger start smiling. "We'll talk more about it later." Vegeta walked back to his previous position.
"Sure Vegeta." Roger said.
At the same time Vegeta was talking to Roger, Goku had walked up behind Rou Kaioshin. "I wasn't sure until just now, but I think that Yambia and Roger have started to bond."
"Huh? What's that mean?" Rou Kaioshin asked.
"It means that unless you want a lap full of insane Saiyan male trying his very hardest to rip your lungs out, um. or whatever body part you may wish to keep, you'd be far better off to treat Yambia with far more respect than you would normally treat women." Goku explained. "Understand?"
Goku remembered the first time that his Saiyan side surfaced outside of his Ozaru form. He had taken Chi-Chi to the first dance that Goku had ever been to, just a few months after they had gotten married. Goku's dancing abilities were, well let's just say, below par. After Goku had managed to stomp poor Chi-Chi's toes enough times that she limped, Goku sat down with as much food as he could drag away from the buffet and started eating, Saiyan style. Chi-Chi had stumbled across an old school acquaintance by the name of Toshu, and he meandered over after they had sit down and asked Chi-Chi to dance "for old times sake". Chi-Chi had, at first, refused. But the guy was persistent. Toshu finally turned to Goku and said, "Your friend won't mind? Do you bud?" Well, Goku wasn't entirely sure what in this entire entire marriage thing entailed, other than still being vaguely disappointed that it wasn't food of some sort, and he and Chi-Chi had still not fully bonded, as was Saiyan custom. Although the bond was there, and growing stronger. So, Goku said. "No, I don't mind if she wants to dance with you."
Goku didn't know it at the time, but this pissed Chi-Chi off. Hoping to make Goku jealous enough to understand, she grabbed Toshu by the arm and hauled him onto the dance floor. They danced for about five minutes when things started going sour.
"So Chi-Chi, just who is that loser your with tonight?" Toshu prodded.
"He's not a loser! He's my husband, and I'll thank you not to talk about him in that manner!" Chi-Chi Blustered.
"Dear Kami! Your husband?? What kind of man let's his wife go off dancing with someone he's never seen before?" Toshu said, amazement in his voice.
"Sigh.. A somewhat clueless one.." was all Chi-Chi could say.
"You know Chi-Chi, I had a real thing for you when we were in school. What do you say? Dump the chump and come and live with me." Toshu propositioned.
Toshu had danced himself and Chi-Chi to the other side of the room, well out of earshot of the average man. Particularly with the music thumping, and people talking, and general party noises. But Goku isn't your average man. His sharp Saiyan ears picked up every single word. The last thing that Goku remembered was a red haze floating down over his eyesight.
No sooner had Toshu spit the last of "and live with me" out of his mouth when he was hit with 185 lbs of pissed off Saiyan, in full war mode.
The next thing Toshu realized was that there was a clamp or something around his throat, and he had been pushed up against, no strike that, halfway through the dancehall wall. Breathing was impossible.
"Filthy human scum!! How dare you try and take what belongs to me! I'll destroy you!" Goku stared to power up a small ki attack in his free hand, and pointed it directly at Toshu's head.
"Stop it Goku! Stop it right now!" Chi-Chi's voice broke through the haze. "He's not worth it! Please Goku!"
Goku looked at the man at the end of his arm, who was turning a lovely shade of purple by this time. He let Toshu go, and let the ki attack dissipate harmlessly.
"What happened Chi-Chi?" Goku asked.
"You almost killed him Goku!" Chi-Chi said, eyes wide as saucers. "I've never seen you like that before!"
Goku felt ashamed. "I'm sorry mister. We'd better go Chi-Chi."
Years later, Goku asked Vegeta about the incident. Vegeta explained that there is nothing stronger in the Saiyan DNA than the mating bond. Even in it's early stages. What happened was probably that complete instinct took over and just for a few seconds, Kakkarot emerged and Goku submerged. Kakkarot, naturally, acted as any full blooded Saiyan would act. Fortunately for you, once anyone hears the sound of her voice, or sees the dents on that frying pan, they don't want to flirt with Chi-Chi." Vegeta smirked.
"Yes, I understand quite clearly!" Rou Kaioshin said. The Elder Kai's telepathic abilities weren't as good as The Supreme Kai's, but he was able to follow most of Goku's thoughts on the one time he lost control. '"I will curb my tongue." The Elder Kai concluded.
"Thank you sir!" Goku said happily.
"Whew! These Saiyans are such a touchy lot!" Rou Kaioshin thought.
"Ok everyone, calm down. I wish to apologize to Yambia, and anyone else I may have offended with my poor choice of words. My only excuse is that I don't get out much, and I don't often get to see women. (Well, real women, up close, just through my God Sight, which makes me feel like a stinking peeping tom anyways) Especially women as stunningly beautiful as yourself Yambia." With a bit of magic the Elder Kai inherited from his accidental fusion with a witch many millennia ago, the old Kai made a dozen Mums appear in his hand, and presented them to Yambia. "Forgive me?"
Yambia took the flowers, "Of course you old coot! Just don't let it happen again!"
Roger's ki was still high, but it was decreasing towards normal.
"Good! While you guys get the power-up, Vegeta, Goku, and myself are going back to New Namek (where we might get some peace!) to carry out the rest of Vegeta's redemption plan." The Supreme Kai said.
"Okay, good luck!" The Elder Kai exclaimed. Turning toward Roger and Yambia. "Okay, you two sit right there, that's right, right where Gohan sat. Now the only rules here are no talking, and no sleeping! Just sit still and try and keep eye contact on me as much as possible." The Elder Kai said.
"How long does this take?" Roger wanted to know.
The Supreme Kai and Goku exchanged slightly evil grins. "The first part takes five hours." The Supreme Kai said.
"The first part takes five hours!!" Roger exclaimed.
"The second part takes 20 hours!" Goku said.
Vegeta just stood and smirked." That should keep you two out of trouble for awhile!"
"25 hours!! Are you guys insane! How can you expect two warriors to just sit and do nothing for 25 hours!" Yambia wailed.
"Stop sniveling you two!" Vegeta scolded. "Being a good warrior means far more than one's willingness to throw oneself into battle! Conditioning, and Discipline is required as well!"
Roger and Yambia looked back at their mentor. "Yes Vegeta." They both said.
"Good, consider this part of your discipline training." Vegeta said.
Roger and Yambia sat in slack jawed amazement as Rou Kaioshin began some sort of native rain dance or something, circling around them.
"What's he doing?" Roger asked.
"It's part of the power-up ritual! It's started now so be quiet!" Rou Kaioshin said.
"We're doomed." Yambia stated flatly.
Roger and Yambia watched as The Supreme Kai, Vegeta, and Goku disappeared. Roger wasn't sure if it was a trick of the imagination, but he could have swore that the last thing to disappear was two wide grins, and a smirk, like three Cheshire Cats from Alice in Wonderland.
