ch3-Caught













Vegeta slowly turned around, "Um wrong room! Bye!" He was ready to run, but the King took him by the collar of his outfit.

King Vejita growled, "You were listening weren't you?! You and..." He glanced at the other two, "Bulma and Kakarott! Their parents will NOT be happy!"

They were dragged to the throne room.

"How dare you disobey my orders Vegeta! I told you not to go to the meeting room! And then you have been toying with the guards! What is with you three?! Must you get in trouble?" The King yelled.

Bulma gulped, "S-Sorry, sir."

King Vejita's ki erupted, "SORRY?! SORRY WON'T HELP! YOU WEREN'T SUPPOSED TO KNOW! YOU THREE ARE IN BIG TROUBLE!!!"

All three of them were cringing before the King. "DAMN IT!" King Vejita yelled.

Bulma hid behind Goku. Goku hid behind Vegeta. Vegeta was shaking, usually he was never afraid like this.

Vegeta found his voice, "Father! Why was I not allowed?!"

"Don't raise your voice to me, young man! NO ONE was supposed to know about any of this! Why Vegeta! Your a Prince for Kami's sake! You obey your father and stay out of trouble! You're giving me a bad name!" Vejita yelled.

"Am not! Nobody knows I've been doing it!" Vegeta argued.

"Some of them do! They've witnessed your playing around! Kakarott and Bulma are supposed to be your sparring partners! Not some little fun group! You can have friends, but don't get in trouble!" Vejita yelled.

King Vejita's ki was an orange color, and if you look real close you'd see a very mad red into it. Damn he was mad!

"You know what I have to do, don't you? A few punishments will be in order!" King Vejita said.

"P-Punishments?" They said in unison.

"Yes! A beating would be in! Grounding...telling your parents...a bit of seperation...I'll figure it out! Just leave!" King Vejita yelled. "Tomorrow I'll make sure you three get what you deserve."

All of them ran out of the room, fast.

"I've never seen the King yell like that," Bulma said as they walked down the halls.

"I'm his son and he has never been so upset!" Vegeta commented.

"B-Beating? S-Seperation? That's harsh..." Goku said worriedly.

"I-I don't want a punishment! All we did was hear a stupid meeting! Does he think we're going to tell someone else?!" Bulma growled.

Vegeta said, "I think he is afriad we'll tell someone. So we can not tell a soul, alright?"

"Yeah," The other two both said.

They stopped at Bulma's room first. "Bye guys," She said as she entered her room.

Goku and Vegeta were walking to Goku's room next.

"Vegeta? Are we really going to be in soo much trouble?" Goku asked.

"Yes, Kakarott," Vegeta sighed.

*

The next morning Bulma, Vegeta, and Goku were called to the throne room. Followed by Bardock and Janet Son and John Briefs.

"Your highness," They all bowed.

"You don't know what they did, do you?" Vejita questioned.

"No, sir," John answered.

"At approximately 10:00 am yesterday they had been listening to the whole conversation in our meeting room. I told Vegeta that he could not go. But he just HAD to! So he snuck in and listenened. Along with Kakarott and Bulma," King Vejita said, in a detective voice.

"What!?" The parents exclaimed.

Bulma and Goku looked at each other nervously and scooted away from their parents.

"We weren't trying to listen! We just wanted to do some pranks! We didn't know it was important!" Bulma tried to explained.

"Pranks? That would be even worse!" King Vejita shook his head. "I've figured out a punishment, already. A bit of a beating. No more disobeying my orders, unless you would like to suffer the consequenes. AND if you ever, EVER tell anyone about this than I'll be forced to be extremely angry!!!!!!!!"

They all shuddered. They were only kids! Goku shuffled his feet, with a pain expression on his face. Goku thought, ' I hate when my parents are dissapointed in me. This will suck! '

Vegeta looked at the ground and thought, ' Not too much of a bad punishment. I wonder who will give us a beating? Clevo, my dad's best guard? Not even us three can take him on. He's almost as strong as father. '

"BULMA!" Mr. Briefs yelled.

She looked up and saw her father with an angry, angry, VERY angry face. Bulma looked down again and gulped, ' Oh shit! '

"WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?! YOU USE MY DEVICES THAT I MADE! YOU ARE FORBIDDEN TO USE THOSE WATCHES AGAIN!" Mr. Briefs yelled, guess we know where Bulma got her loud voice from....

"Yes, father," Bulma mumbled, although she knew he could still here it.

"KAKAROTT!" Janet yelled.

Goku winced at the screeching, "I-I'm sorry, mum!"

"How could you?! I woulda never thought you'd pull silly pranks and disobey the King! And Bulma! I may not be your mother, but I didn't think a pretty girl such as yourself would steep so low as to do a thing like this!" Janet yelled.

Bardock growled, "Kakarott! I can't believe this...I never knew you would be such a troublemaker! ERR!" His ki rose higher and higher with everyword.

"But all we did was hear a little conversation! We don't care about it! Why is it such a big deal!!!!!!!!?????" Goku had a sudden outburst as his blue ki jetted around him.

"IT WAS A BIG DEAL BECAUSE THAT WAS CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION! AND YOU DISOBEYED ORDERS!!!!!!!!!!!" Bardock yelled, twice the volume of Goku's voice.

Goku showed anger that was...so unlike him. He shot his father a nasty look and crossed his arms. "SHUT UP! I'M TIRED OF EVERYONE BOSSING ME 'ROUND! WHY CAN'T A KID HAVE FUN?????!!!!" Goku shouted at the top of his lungs.

"Don't give me that tone, Kakarott! Not even your brother would dare do that!" Bardock growled.

"Feh. Whatever. I don't know what you guys are so worried about. I guess I'll just have to study my little ' consequences. ' Just do you worst..." Goku sneered.

Vegeta and Bulmahad their jaws practically hit the floor. Vegeta blinked, ' Did I hear right? Kakarott? Raising his voice at his father? He has some guts. Maybe he isn't too dumb after all! '

Bulma thought, ' Wow! Son-kun really has something there! I guess he's not a brainless git! It won't change our punishment, but...that was totally unexpected. He deseverves some applause...'

"Mr. and Mrs. Son and Mr. Briefs, could you please move out of the room so I can get Clevo?" Vejita seemed to have demanded instead of asked.

They took one last bow and a nasty glance at their kids before exiting the room. The three turned to the King.

"Hmm...I'll be back," Vejita said as he exited the room.

"Our parents are really mad..." Bulma said.

"Don't worry, Blue. It's not that bad. Clevo won't get us that bad," Goku tried to comfort her.

"No, not that. I think it's worse that my dad is really dissapointed in me. Did you see that angry look on his face? That scares the crap outta me!" Bulma said, she paled.

Vegeta sighed, "I was expecting something harsher. At least it's pretty easy.."

"EASY?!" Goku and Bulma shouted in unison.

Vegeta shurgged, "Yeah. Just a yelling and hurt. They'll get over it by tomorrow. They're parents. And besides they're not totally mad at us. They are mad because of the news! Don't you guys get it? All of them are scared because Frieza is gonna attack the saiyans in a year."

"Wow, I never thought about it that way, Vegeta. I guess your right, "Bulma agreed.

A burly guy with short black hair and dark black eyes frowned at them. "The causes of this mess?" He seemed to ask.

"No. We were just...seeing the King! Them over there are the culprits!" Bulma said craftily, as she pointed to the guards covering the door. The guards didn't notice, this though.

Goku and Vegeta raised an eyebrow as she brought forth the lie.

"Thank you, young lady. I hope you three will be good kids and stay out of trouble," Clevo said as he smirked at the two guards.

"Oh and do you tell the King on what you do?" Bulma asked, trying to sound as if she didn't care.

"No. He doesn't like when I tell him that stuff. He hates when last time I did it," Clevo said.

The two guards near the door had fallen asleep, standing up. They didn't hear a word that the whole deal had said.

Vegeta, Bulma, and Goku went out the door, casually, and then raced down the halls, although they heard someone get hit before they bolted.

They flew out of the castle, kis low and went in a deserted area, about 20 miles away. All of them landed and they looked at Bulma.

"Good one, Blue. You are always the quick thinker," Vegeta complimented.

"Thanks, 'Geta. Clevo won't tell your father about it, because he said that he never tells him anything, so we're home free!" Bulma grinned.

Goku hugged Bulma, "That's the best lie anyone could come up with! I really didn't wanna feel his wrath."

Bulma's grin widened, "Well, we should spar and work ourselves up, as if we did feel his wrath. Today we're gonna do a rough training session. We haven't done a really hard one since last month."

"Alright," The other two agreed.

*

After using most of their strength on the training session, they used the rest of their strength getting back. They looked as if they had been hurt by Clevo. Although, they loved the sparring session.

All of them entered and staggered to the rejuvenation tank. They stopped in front of the door and fell at the same time. They had blood over them from training and were dead tired. They couldn't lift a foot of strength in the room.

"That's clear now isn't it?" They jumped, if they could on the floor, as a voice said behind them.

All of them looked up to see Vejita. Actually, all of their consiounc snickered. They remembered the lie they had escaped to get out of it.

"Um, yep," Goku muttered.

When they looked up they saw the King had gone. They frowned. How were they supposed to get in the room to heal themselves.

"Hey little bro, what's up? I heard you got in trouble." Someone said.

They looked up, again, and saw Radditz, Goku's brother. He was only 15, now. Five years older than Goku. Bulma like him as a friend, he was considered cool to her.

"Radditz? Could you help us get in the Rejuvenation tanks? We're really tired," Goku asked.

"Sure thing," Radditz said.

They were placed into the tank and let the water flow. All of them said their thank yous as they were put in. Radditz was pretty good-natured most of the time.

They sure had learned one thing. They thought they learned that getting out of trouble was great. And that none of them would upset their parents that much again.

What would their next idea of fun be?
