Pairing: Umm…
Warnings: AH! Look out for large killer monkeys!
Summary: Umm… Monkey?
*Grins* Okay, here is the next part. One little thing though: if you want me to do the R/R Saga, I will, but to be honest, I am more interested in doing the Piccolo Saga and moving right to Dragon Ball Z. *grins* I want Vegeta back also! SO IT IS UP TO YOU PEOPLE! Should I do the Red Ribbon, or just keep on going? Even if I do the Piccolo Saga, it will go pretty quick. I'm sure of it! So TELL ME!
------------------------
The ceiling glowed, while diminutive eyes watched their every move. Bulma swallowed. This was scary. Maybe the Dragon Balls weren't that important. The entire group had finally entered the castle. Eying Yamcha for a moment, she grew annoyed. She had tried to hide behind him, but he pushed her away while
screaming himself. She was beginning to think about doing one of Chichi's numbers and hiding behind Goku.
The silence of the room was torn away when Goku's sure foot stepped on a small button. Everyone froze, becoming a tableau of uneasiness as they stared at each other. Moments later, there was a loud click, followed by a low rumble as columns of bricks began to shoot from the ground.
Chichi promptly jumped on Goku's back for some strange reason, while Bulma was nearly crushed by one column that she had been trapped on top of. Luckily, and to the surprise of everyone, Yamcha actually dived down, breaking the bricks with his fist. Meanwhile, Goku finally got annoyed and decided to smash columns all over the place, with Chichi still hanging from his neck.
Everyone stood there, waiting.
"Wow. That was weird," commented Goku. He received glares.
"NEXT TIME WATCH WHERE YOU WALK!" Chichi hissed swatting the back of his head. "We could have been killed!"
~*~
Bulma and Chichi watched as the males of the group tested and poked at the immovable wall constantly. Both blinked at each other. Were all men so… stupid?
"I have a little question," Chichi began.
"Ask on."
"Why doesn't Goku just use the Kamehameha?" she asked.
"Don't know, but I'm guessing we are going to be in here for a very long time." Bulma groaned placing her hands behind her head. The only thought running through her mind was that if Vegeta had kept his stupid tail here, they wouldn't be in this mess. "Maybe you should try, Chichi."
She laughed. "Yeah right! I'm not breaking my little fist. It's obvious that it won't do any good."
"Yeah. I guess you're right."
They however were interrupted when a little voice boomed and echoed throughout the room. "You can't break through those walls! So give up," the little man screamed.
"Who… are you?" Bulma finally asked.
"I… I am Lord Pilaf! And I demand you give me the four star Dragon Ball!" he said, cutting right to the chase.
"HA! We aren't giving you anything, you dirty little jerk! Now I demand you let us out of here!" Bulma retorted.
Fuming for a brief moment Pilaf collected himself before slamming his hand down on a button to his side. A metal hand shot down from the ceiling, grabbing Bulma by the back, and taking her away through the open ceiling hole. Moments later, she found herself in front of Pilaf, with his henchmen behind him.
"Okay little girl! Give me the Dragon Ball, or I'll be forced to get fresh with you!" he threatened.
Bulma blinked. Get fresh with her? She grinned. More than likely, if even one scratch is on me, I'm taking all of his energy. "I'm not telling you anything, so forget it!" From behind her, she could hear the monitor, as Yamcha was yelling for her to be strong. Chichi, never thwarted, commented on how disgusting males were.
Her words seemed to make Pilaf even angrier. He raised his hands to his lips while his henchmen cowered in fear and dread. In one swift movement he blew her a… kiss. Bulma just stared at him in shock as he blushed.
"Are you ready to talk now?" he demanded.
"Umm… no. Actually, I'm a bit surprised. There is more, isn't there? I thought you were going to take off my clothes and poke this and that." In disgust, the three villains looked at each other. How could this young girl be so perverted?
With that, Pilaf rushed to the control lever and tossed Bulma back into the holding cell. As soon as she landed, Yamcha complimented her on how great she'd done. Chichi, however, glared.
"What?" Bulma finally asked.
"That was just gross!" she stated. Bulma blushed.
"Yeah, I guess it was. But come on, what did you think they were going to do?" It was Chichi's turn to blush as she giggled a little.
"I get your point," she mumbled, but shot a glare at Oolong who was whining about "nothing interesting happening."
It only took a brief moment before the group was once again silenced. But, this time it was due to a hazy, thick yellow gas filling up the cell. The first to drop was young Goku, followed by Yamcha, who grumbled some thing about being really tired before falling over. Puar and Oolong were nowhere to be seen, so both girls assumed they were somewhere on the floor. Last, but not least, Bulma and Chichi hit the ground, out cold like everyone else.
~*~
Pilaf eagerly entered the room, his happiness radiating off him. His wish to rule the world would come true. Oh yes, he would live forever and… and he… was getting a bit drowsy. Moments later, the little blue man hit the ground, falling victim to his own sleep gas.
"Shu, you get Pilaf while I look for the Dragon Ball." Mai instructed Shu and watched him as he drug their Master away. She grumbled some words under her breath before going to each of their victims in turn, searching them until finally she found her prize in a small bag under Goku's belt. She smirked and rose, running out of the small cell in complete joy. In her haste and elation, however, she neglected one small fact. She left the door open.
~*~
Bulma was the first to wake up. The foremost thing her eyes laid upon was the empty bag of Dragon Balls lying by Goku's side. Her eyes bulged as she screamed, waking up Chichi in the process.
"What is the big idea? WHY CAN'T I GET ANY SLEEP AROUND HERE!" Chichi hissed.
Bulma glared.
"Now is not the time for sleep! The dragon ball has been stolen!" Chichi blinked. That meant that the bad guys had all of them… and they'd probably make a wish to rule the world or something. This was bad. Jumping up, Chichi rushed to Goku, shaking him while Bulma followed her lead and went to Yamcha.
She tapped him a few times before his eyes opened… and the first thing he saw was Bulma's cleavage right above him. With a scream, he threw himself into the nearby wall. The commotion and accompanying screams had awoken everyone else including Goku, who wasn't replying to Chichi shakes.
"What happened?" Goku asked, yawning.
"They stole your Dragon Ball," mumbled Chichi. His eyes widened. That was his Grandpa's Dragon Ball!
"No," he whined, "that wasn't nice!"
"Umm… guys?" whispered Bulma, a smirk slowly forming on her face.
"We've gotta get it back!"
"GUYS!" Once everyone was staring at her, Bulma pointed toward the door. "Look at this! The idiots left the door open!"
~*~
Down the halls walked the grand Pilaf. He was about to be the richest, most well known man in the entire world! Behind him were his two lackeys who continued to smile. Every thing would have gone wonderfully, if only they hadn't turned left and ran right into… the good guys.
They stared each other down for a moment before the blue haired female spoke
first.
"Did you make the wish?" she demanded.
Pilaf dumbly shook his head as the tailed boy jumped forward. "I demand you give back my Grandpa's Dragon Ball or else!" he threatened.
"Yeah, or else!" the smallest female put in.
Pilaf and his minions glanced at each other before screaming and turning tail, running with Goku and his gang hot on their heels.
~*~
"Life does suck, ya know?" Bulma said, looking down each pathway. Their group had been too slow and lost Pilaf and his gang. "We're going to have to guess."
Chichi, however, shook her head. "Maybe not…" she snickered. Everyone cocked an eyebrow at the young girl.
"Your plan is?" Bulma watched as Chichi eyes shot over to hers.
"Well… Goku, I order you to sniff the ground."
Every one minus Goku promptly fell over.
"What! He has a good nose," Chichi pleaded. "We found Yamcha and his cat thing through Goku's nose."
Laughing, Bulma shook her head. "Okay, how about we try that then." She smiled.
Goku stood watching them converse. Didn't he have a say in any of this? Maybe he didn't like sniffing the ground. Seconds later, he watched as they all turned to him.
"Come on Goku." Bulma began, urging him on. The others nodded in encouragement.
"But…" One glare from Chichi shut him up. "Okay…"
~*~
"WHO FORGOT TO SHUT THE DOOR?" Pilaf screamed. Mai quickly pointed at the dog that stood beside her.
"No way! You were the last out Mai. Don't blame it on me!" Shu argued.
"Shut your mouth. You know it was your entire fault! I don't make mistakes!" she screamed back.
Ignoring the two quarreling fools, Pilaf sighed. He'd take care of this himself. He didn't need those foolish idiots. Turning to the screen, Pilaf tapping it a few times, the beeping indicating a response. Now where did they go? His eyes widened in horror when he discovered them heading right for his control room!
"OH MY KAMI! SHU, MAI, PUT SOMETHING BY THE DOOR!" he screamed in terror. Both of his comrades looked at each other, and then at him. Why would he want something by the door?
Too late.
Both Mai and Shu were thrown to the ground when the blast of a Kamehameha wave came barreling through the flimsy door. They stared up, stunned as the sound of screeching came to their ears. The sight they saw was surprisingly odd. The females were yelling at the tailed boy who covered his ears, wincing. Once they seemed to realize they were being watched, they instantly were silent and glared at Pilaf.
"HA! We found you!" Chichi squealed. "And do you wanna know how?"
Silence.
Once again, she gripped Goku's arm. "HE SNIFFED HIS WAY HERE! HAHA!"
Silence.
"Umm… don't you guys talk?" Bulma finally commented.
"How did you find this room?" the little blue man screamed.
Chichi blinked. "I told you already." She pulled on poor Goku's arm a little more until finally he yanked away. "Sorry. Geez."
"Look. I'm really sick of this. Just give me back my Dragon Ball and I won't
hurt you," Goku stated.
Pilaf laughed. They still didn't know where they were! They were in his castle, in his domain. He smirked just as Mai and Shu stood. "You don't know where you are, do you?" He smiled as his hand moved to the handle of his seat. "You are in MY domain and you are about to go bye-bye."
They blinked.
"What do you mean by that?" Bulma muttered. She had begun to glance around in preparation for strange arrows to shoot from the wall, or other odd traps to spring.
"I mean this." With that, Pilaf's hand slammed down on a small button, and the floor open beneath Bulma and her friends. The only thing that could be heard was their screams as they made a nosedive to the bottom.
~*~
"Oooh… this room looks familiar."
Bulma glared at Yamcha but didn't speak a word. He'll probably scream anyway.
"What DO YOU MEAN THIS ROOM LOOKS FAMILIAR?" Chichi decided to do the screaming for her. "IT'S THE SAME ROOM WE WERE JUST IN!"
"Please do stop screaming," came a voice from behind them. Everyone jumped and turned around, only to see the face of Pilaf. He grinned. "Thank you for that little bit of fun. You actually gave me a scream but I'm going to summon the dragon. Good bye!" The monitor went off, leaving a shocked gang.
"DAMN YOU VEGETA!" Bulma howled. "YOU IDIOT! YOU JUST HAD TO LEAVE, DIDN'T
YOU! YOU COULDN'T WAIT ONE GODDAMN DAY!" Her screams soon turned to tears.
"My life sucks!"
Chichi calmly went over and soothed Bulma by rubbing Bulma's back much like Chichi's father had always done for her. "Eh… don't worry, we'll get out of here and then we'll get 'em!"
"Hey Goku! Do the Kamehameha and blast a hole through the wall."
Goku nodded. It was a good idea and worth a try. He pulled his hand back.
"Ka… Me… Ha… Me… HA!" A surge of power erupted forth from the young boy's hands, but it only managed to make a little bitty hole. He laughed, as Bulma looked at him before bursting out into tears again. It really wasn't fair! "Wow. That tiny. I guess I haven't had enough training." His laughing was swiftly silenced as Chichi swatted him.
"That's not funny!" she screamed.
"Uhh… gomen?"
Yamcha ran over to the hole, gasping. There were the bad guys, and there were the Dragon Balls… OH NO! "Puar! Change into a bat! I think you'll be able to fit through!" Nodding, Puar rolled herself over once, and with a *poof*, she transformed and flew through the hole.
Bulma watched the courageous little cat go and suddenly glared at Oolong. "Get your tail up and go help!" she screamed.
"What? No way in Kami's name am I going out there!" Oolong screamed back. He had no designs on getting himself skewered.
"Go NOW! Or else I'll say it!" she threatened, a warning note evident in her voice. Oolong grumbled a few cruses under his breath before a cloud of smoke surrounded him, and he turned into a disgusting looking bat. "Go now Oolong," she ordered again. He nodded and flew through the hole after Puar.
As the two shape shifters left, the room-bound crew could hear thunder echo throughout their cell. Bulma rushed to the hole, pushing Yamcha out of the way, just in time to see a huge Dragon coil itself in the sky. She sniffed. All that traveling… all that time… was about to go to some little blue idiot! She couldn't help but stare in awe. The Dragon was amazing.
"This is cool…" trailed Yamcha.
"Nice… Sweet… Goku and I back here are beginning to wonder WHAT it looks like," Chichi not so subtlety reminded them.
"Yamcha move," Bulma ordered as her eyes didn't stray from the small hole.
"Wha… I don't…" he gasped, looking over his shoulder and realized SHE was next to him. Screaming, he threw himself against the nearby wall, allowing Chichi to peak out.
"Oooohhh, it's big… and pretty… Goku! Do another Kamehameha!" she ordered, moving out of the way. Bulma did the same.
"But… I can't… I'm tired… hungry." He collapsed to the floor.
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN," Bulma screeched. Moaning, she didn't even want to *think* about how much money had she spent buying food for him, and then every one else on the list. "You can't really be serious." The thump of Goku falling to the ground made both girls look at each other.
"Wow… it was nice knowing you Bulma. I mean, in a few minutes we're going to be under the rule of a little blue thing."
Bulma glared. This really couldn't be happening. This is your fault Vegeta!
~*~
"STATE YOUR WISH SO I CAN GO," the Dragon's voice boomed again. Pilaf grinned.
This was his day. His mommy would be so proud. He was going to rule the world. Him…
"Please, oh GREAT eternal dragon make me the RULER OF THIS ENTIRE P--" Jumping on Pilaf's head, a strange creature interrupted the blue creature's wish, blurting out their own desire.
"I WISH FOR A PAIR OF PANTIES FROM A HOT BABE!"
The crimson eyes of the dragon flashed a brilliant red as everyone else blinked in disbelief and shock. "YOUR WISH IS GRANTED," boomed the Dragon. As the massive lizard disappeared, the dragon balls glowed and rose into the air before scattering. At that moment, a pair of panties fell from the sky, landing on Oolong's hard head.
~*~
"Oh my Kami… Oh my Kami… DID YOU HEAR WHAT THAT MORON WISHED FOR," Chichi howled, angrily.
"What do you think Chichi? Huh? OF COURSE! THAT DIRTY LITTLE IDIOT!" Bulma howled back, just as loud.
"GOKU! DO THE WAVE NOW!"
"But… Chichi!"
"NOW!" While he stood once again, both females slid to the side to give him space.
"Ka… me… ha… Me… HA!" The ball of light erupted from his hands, blowing the wall to bits.
"Wow. That was neat. What happened?"
Bulma cringed and quickly explained the rest of the legend, about how the Dragon Balls would scatter and be inactive for a year. Goku's eyes widened. That meant his Grandpa was gone.
"Uh, well in that case, since the Dragon Balls are gone for another year… How about we all go to ROSHI'S!" Chichi squealed, not really caring as she raced to the ledge leaving the other behind.
"Hey CHICHI! GET BACK HERE AND WAIT FOR US!" Her head poked back into the room.
"Come on, then."
"Goku get up!" Bulma ordered. The small boy twitched. "Eh, Yamcha, get up and get Goku. He can't move."
~*~
"Get them!" Pilaf screamed. He couldn't believe it. A pig had trashed his whole plan. How could that happen? And what did the pig wish for? Panties. PANTIES! His eyes narrowed at his minions that were in pursuit of the pig and his little kitty friend. He looked up, and was shocked to find the others standing out on a ledge. He growled. "DON'T FORGET ABOUT THE OTHERS! CAPTURE THEM!"
~*~
Running down the tunnels, the group panted as each and every turn seemed to get them more lost. Chichi looked up, glaring at Yamcha who pulled Goku along as they ran. Being as mad as she was, she yelled at him, telling him to stop pulling his arm and just pick him up.
Yamcha threw her an irritated glance, but was unable to answer when Bulma's voice hollered through, stopping the argument that was sure to take place.
"Stop fighting… *pant* we've gotta get outta *pant* *pant* here," Bulma gasped, almost completely out of breath. She wasn't used to doing all of this running. She and the others suddenly stopped as the sounds of barking reached their ears. Bulma made a mighty leap behind Yamcha when she discovered at least twenty dogs coming their way. "ACK! I HATE DOGS!"
"Goku," called Yamcha, "I could use some help here!" Crouching into a fighting stance, he readied himself for battle.
"But… I'm too… hungry," Goku responded, collapsing to the ground.
"Oh get up! You really can't be that starved…" Chichi trailed as he hiccupped. I guess he is starved. She however was pulled back into reality when Bulma grabbed her by the arm, pulling her out of the way of a dog that had been thrown by Yamcha. Face lighting up, she cheered when Goku realized what was coming towards him and promptly jumped up to fight. Although the only thing that went through his mind was dinner.
"Err… thanks," Chichi mumbled.
"You're welcome."
"Hey you two, get up! There's too many, we have to run!" yelled Yamcha as he took off ahead. Chichi jumped up, followed by Bulma who took the time to grab Goku, who was just about to have a *feast*.
They came to a large domed room, and Bulma glanced up, noticing the window. She grinned.
"Goku, we can use you power pole to get out. Come on get up!"
"Uh… right…" Pulling his grandfathers pole from his sheath, Chichi frowned as she remembered her staff that had been lost in the battle with that dumb T-rex. She growled lowly to herself. "Everyone jump on!" Goku yelled as the power pole extended all the way to the ceiling… but not high enough for them to reach the window. The entire group complained gripping the pole tighter.
"Goku," whined an irritated Chichi as she placed one foot on top of Bulma's head, "make it go HIGHER!"
"GET YOUR DAMN FOOT OFF MY HEAD CHICHI!" hollered Bulma.
"I can't! I'll fall!" she screamed back, trying not to glance down. Bulma wasn't allowed time to make a comeback as the pole began… to tip.
"AAAAHHHH!!!"
((Thump))
Everyone plummeted to the ground just in time to stop Oolong and Puar from escaping. Yamcha jumped up, screaming, but didn't have time to look over his various injuries as another stream of wolves began to attack.
Chichi at that instant became highly aggravated as the dogs surrounded her and Bulma, who for her part was gripping a small pole in her hands. She didn't want to go through this! She wanted to go to Roshi and get trained. That was ALL!
"Grr… AMOZO… FLAMES!" she screeched as a burst of fiery ki swam around her and charged at the dogs, which like the T-Rex had the common sense to run. A wide grin appeared over her face. She hated that attack because of the fact that it was entirely too hot but… wait a sec…
"Bulma are you… Eh… Hi," Chichi stuttered. Her eyes wandered over to Bulma, who was being held at gunpoint. Goku was also in the same predicament, but he was sitting on the ground looking dazed.
"I do hope you know when to stop." Mai began smirking. "You don't want to see your little friend's brains all over the place do you?"
~*~
The full moon shined brightly on our pathetically trapped heroes. Oolong, for all his help, made it worse by commenting that they would never break out. Goku blinked, staring up at the ceiling.
"It looks like there isn't a roof up there."
"Don't do that Goku," Chichi warned, watching him as he crouched and prepared to jump. He didn't listen.
((BANG))
Goku fell to the ground, rubbing his head. "That hurt."
"I TOLD YOU NOT TO JUMP, DIDN'T I?" Chichi screeched, pissed off with the fact that he didn't listen.
"Stop fussing you two! We have to get out of here and find the Dragon Balls," Yamcha demanded.
"Oh, shut up you idiot," growled Bulma. "You have to wait anyway. The Balls won't become active for another year." She turned her head from him as he whined.
"HA!" A little voice boomed through the small room, originating from a small P.A. speaker near the cell's ceiling. "You thought you could get rid of me, didn't you? FOOLS! That's way you will die!" he screamed. "Do you know how you will die? The sun will come up, and… YOU WILL COOK TO DEATH!" He suddenly began to laugh hysterically while both girls looked at each other, twitching. "Now if you don't mind be I'm going to bed! See you in the morning!"
Once his voice was gone everyone began to moan. "I don't wanna die, Goku. I JUST WANT TO GO TO ROSHI'S!" The little princess fell to the ground crying.
"It's so pretty," Puar mumbled. Everyone instantly stopped their crying and looked askew at the cat.
"What's pretty?" Oolong asked.
"The full moon… I want to see something pretty before I die."
"Wow… You know, that reminds me of the story about that monster that comes out at a full moon," Goku suddenly stated. The words 'full moon' had dredged up a memory from Goku's past.
"Goku, please, we don't have time for stories," groaned Bulma.
"HEY! I'm for real. It killed my grandpa and messed up my whole house!"
"Really?" Chichi mumbled. "But, wasn't your grandpa REALLY strong? It must have been a big monster."
"Yeah. I didn't see it, though. I was asleep."
Chichi blinked and glanced over at him. "Asleep?"
"How could you sleep though THAT?" Bulma questioned.
"I don't really know. My Pa told me to never look at the full moon. I did anyway, but it didn't hurt anything." Everyone else seemed to put two and two together. Goku was shocked to see Chichi running away from him and latching onto Bulma's hip. "Umm…"
"Tell me Goku. D-did y-you h-happen t-to look a-a-at the full m-moon t-that day?" Bulma stuttered.
"Well, I wasn't supposed to, but I had to pee."
Everyone backed up a little more.
"What does this mean," Chichi whispered.
"I think it means that we are in trouble," Bulma grumbled back, aware of the fact that Goku's story might have more than a grain of truth in it.
"W-Well… it might not be true," Yamcha added.
"Right. It is not true! Goku is NOT a big monster!" Chichi said. "But, just to be careful, it might be better to tell him not to look at the moon," she added.
"Yeah, good idea." Bulma turned staring the confused Goku down. "DO NOT LOOK BEHIND YOU, THERE IS A FULL MOON!" Upon hearing her words Goku turned and stared into the sky at the moon. ^__^
He laughed. "Oops. I did it again." He grinned, scratching his head.
"You feel… okay?" Chichi questioned.
"Yep. I feel fine."
They let out a breath of relief. But, something snapped...and his eyes widened, gaining a flash to them. His heart began to beat so loudly that they could hear it, the pace quickening. More gasps erupted as his eyes turned blood red and his body began to spout brown fur from his pores. Then, he began to grow at a rapid rate, his body stretching to accommodate the new muscle structure. His face elongated into that of an ape, and seconds later Goku roared and stood up, breaking through the glass ceiling.
A scream rocketed out as the group stared at the monster formerly known as Goku.
-------------------------------
Wow… This was at least 11 pages! (Beta's note: 12! 12 pages! *faints*) *squeals* Anyway, THANK YOU for all of the reviews. I was going to continue this chapter, but I figured it would be better if I stopped. I think I'm going probably type the next part of this and then jump to WereCats. But I'm in so much of a mood for this fic though! I didn't want to stop there actually. *sniff* But, it seemed like a good place.
Oh yeah, I know that a lot of you are mad about Vegeta leaving. I didn't want him to go, but I couldn't keep him in. But don't worry HE'LL be back! *Lol* He shall come back!
Another thing. I wasn't sure if you guys would want me to do the RR Saga. If you all don't want me, to I won't. Everything will go quicker if I don't do the RR Saga. That means I will go into Dragon Ball Z much quicker. It's up to you!
(Beta's note, part deux: Go read Cleaving of Emotion by SkittleKicks. It's got Vegeta! ;P)
------------------
Candy-Chick: I miss him too *cries* He'll come back later!!!
Lady Nightshade: Thanks!
Impossible: See… I'm getting them out. HAHA! *cough* Thank you…
Saiyantamer : *smiles* Thank you.
Serenestorm: See! Here's an update for you! *grins*

Yuri: Hi. *waves* I'm glad you and Kei liked the last chapter, and I hope you

Kei: *waves again* Hey! Yuri still isn't taking up all your attention is she? Lol. Thank you for the review!
Xace Marius: Thank you.
On the next episode of Dragon Ball (The Real Saga): The gang has to deal with a monkey named Goku and what's this? Na… I'll let you find out. ^__^
P.S. *dance* TRAINING WILL BEGAN NEXT CHAPTER! HAHA HAHA!
Pairing: Umm…
Warnings: AH! Look out for large killer monkeys!
Summary: Umm… Monkey?
*Grins* Okay, here is the next part. One little thing though: if you want me to do the R/R Saga, I will, but to be honest, I am more interested in doing the Piccolo Saga and moving right to Dragon Ball Z. *grins* I want Vegeta back also! SO IT IS UP TO YOU PEOPLE! Should I do the Red Ribbon, or just keep on going? Even if I do the Piccolo Saga, it will go pretty quick. I'm sure of it! So TELL ME!
------------------------
The ceiling glowed, while diminutive eyes watched their every move. Bulma swallowed. This was scary. Maybe the Dragon Balls weren't that important. The entire group had finally entered the castle. Eying Yamcha for a moment, she grew annoyed. She had tried to hide behind him, but he pushed her away while
screaming himself. She was beginning to think about doing one of Chichi's numbers and hiding behind Goku.
The silence of the room was torn away when Goku's sure foot stepped on a small button. Everyone froze, becoming a tableau of uneasiness as they stared at each other. Moments later, there was a loud click, followed by a low rumble as columns of bricks began to shoot from the ground.
Chichi promptly jumped on Goku's back for some strange reason, while Bulma was nearly crushed by one column that she had been trapped on top of. Luckily, and to the surprise of everyone, Yamcha actually dived down, breaking the bricks with his fist. Meanwhile, Goku finally got annoyed and decided to smash columns all over the place, with Chichi still hanging from his neck.
Everyone stood there, waiting.
"Wow. That was weird," commented Goku. He received glares.
"NEXT TIME WATCH WHERE YOU WALK!" Chichi hissed swatting the back of his head. "We could have been killed!"
~*~
Bulma and Chichi watched as the males of the group tested and poked at the immovable wall constantly. Both blinked at each other. Were all men so… stupid?
"I have a little question," Chichi began.
"Ask on."
"Why doesn't Goku just use the Kamehameha?" she asked.
"Don't know, but I'm guessing we are going to be in here for a very long time." Bulma groaned placing her hands behind her head. The only thought running through her mind was that if Vegeta had kept his stupid tail here, they wouldn't be in this mess. "Maybe you should try, Chichi."
She laughed. "Yeah right! I'm not breaking my little fist. It's obvious that it won't do any good."
"Yeah. I guess you're right."
They however were interrupted when a little voice boomed and echoed throughout the room. "You can't break through those walls! So give up," the little man screamed.
"Who… are you?" Bulma finally asked.
"I… I am Lord Pilaf! And I demand you give me the four star Dragon Ball!" he said, cutting right to the chase.
"HA! We aren't giving you anything, you dirty little jerk! Now I demand you let us out of here!" Bulma retorted.
Fuming for a brief moment Pilaf collected himself before slamming his hand down on a button to his side. A metal hand shot down from the ceiling, grabbing Bulma by the back, and taking her away through the open ceiling hole. Moments later, she found herself in front of Pilaf, with his henchmen behind him.
"Okay little girl! Give me the Dragon Ball, or I'll be forced to get fresh with you!" he threatened.
Bulma blinked. Get fresh with her? She grinned. More than likely, if even one scratch is on me, I'm taking all of his energy. "I'm not telling you anything, so forget it!" From behind her, she could hear the monitor, as Yamcha was yelling for her to be strong. Chichi, never thwarted, commented on how disgusting males were.
Her words seemed to make Pilaf even angrier. He raised his hands to his lips while his henchmen cowered in fear and dread. In one swift movement he blew her a… kiss. Bulma just stared at him in shock as he blushed.
"Are you ready to talk now?" he demanded.
"Umm… no. Actually, I'm a bit surprised. There is more, isn't there? I thought you were going to take off my clothes and poke this and that." In disgust, the three villains looked at each other. How could this young girl be so perverted?
With that, Pilaf rushed to the control lever and tossed Bulma back into the holding cell. As soon as she landed, Yamcha complimented her on how great she'd done. Chichi, however, glared.
"What?" Bulma finally asked.
"That was just gross!" she stated. Bulma blushed.
"Yeah, I guess it was. But come on, what did you think they were going to do?" It was Chichi's turn to blush as she giggled a little.
"I get your point," she mumbled, but shot a glare at Oolong who was whining about "nothing interesting happening."
It only took a brief moment before the group was once again silenced. But, this time it was due to a hazy, thick yellow gas filling up the cell. The first to drop was young Goku, followed by Yamcha, who grumbled some thing about being really tired before falling over. Puar and Oolong were nowhere to be seen, so both girls assumed they were somewhere on the floor. Last, but not least, Bulma and Chichi hit the ground, out cold like everyone else.
~*~
Pilaf eagerly entered the room, his happiness radiating off him. His wish to rule the world would come true. Oh yes, he would live forever and… and he… was getting a bit drowsy. Moments later, the little blue man hit the ground, falling victim to his own sleep gas.
"Shu, you get Pilaf while I look for the Dragon Ball." Mai instructed Shu and watched him as he drug their Master away. She grumbled some words under her breath before going to each of their victims in turn, searching them until finally she found her prize in a small bag under Goku's belt. She smirked and rose, running out of the small cell in complete joy. In her haste and elation, however, she neglected one small fact. She left the door open.
~*~
Bulma was the first to wake up. The foremost thing her eyes laid upon was the empty bag of Dragon Balls lying by Goku's side. Her eyes bulged as she screamed, waking up Chichi in the process.
"What is the big idea? WHY CAN'T I GET ANY SLEEP AROUND HERE!" Chichi hissed.
Bulma glared.
"Now is not the time for sleep! The dragon ball has been stolen!" Chichi blinked. That meant that the bad guys had all of them… and they'd probably make a wish to rule the world or something. This was bad. Jumping up, Chichi rushed to Goku, shaking him while Bulma followed her lead and went to Yamcha.
She tapped him a few times before his eyes opened… and the first thing he saw was Bulma's cleavage right above him. With a scream, he threw himself into the nearby wall. The commotion and accompanying screams had awoken everyone else including Goku, who wasn't replying to Chichi shakes.
"What happened?" Goku asked, yawning.
"They stole your Dragon Ball," mumbled Chichi. His eyes widened. That was his Grandpa's Dragon Ball!
"No," he whined, "that wasn't nice!"
"Umm… guys?" whispered Bulma, a smirk slowly forming on her face.
"We've gotta get it back!"
"GUYS!" Once everyone was staring at her, Bulma pointed toward the door. "Look at this! The idiots left the door open!"
~*~
Down the halls walked the grand Pilaf. He was about to be the richest, most well known man in the entire world! Behind him were his two lackeys who continued to smile. Every thing would have gone wonderfully, if only they hadn't turned left and ran right into… the good guys.
They stared each other down for a moment before the blue haired female spoke
first.
"Did you make the wish?" she demanded.
Pilaf dumbly shook his head as the tailed boy jumped forward. "I demand you give back my Grandpa's Dragon Ball or else!" he threatened.
"Yeah, or else!" the smallest female put in.
Pilaf and his minions glanced at each other before screaming and turning tail, running with Goku and his gang hot on their heels.
~*~
"Life does suck, ya know?" Bulma said, looking down each pathway. Their group had been too slow and lost Pilaf and his gang. "We're going to have to guess."
Chichi, however, shook her head. "Maybe not…" she snickered. Everyone cocked an eyebrow at the young girl.
"Your plan is?" Bulma watched as Chichi eyes shot over to hers.
"Well… Goku, I order you to sniff the ground."
Every one minus Goku promptly fell over.
"What! He has a good nose," Chichi pleaded. "We found Yamcha and his cat thing through Goku's nose."
Laughing, Bulma shook her head. "Okay, how about we try that then." She smiled.
Goku stood watching them converse. Didn't he have a say in any of this? Maybe he didn't like sniffing the ground. Seconds later, he watched as they all turned to him.
"Come on Goku." Bulma began, urging him on. The others nodded in encouragement.
"But…" One glare from Chichi shut him up. "Okay…"
~*~
"WHO FORGOT TO SHUT THE DOOR?" Pilaf screamed. Mai quickly pointed at the dog that stood beside her.
"No way! You were the last out Mai. Don't blame it on me!" Shu argued.
"Shut your mouth. You know it was your entire fault! I don't make mistakes!" she screamed back.
Ignoring the two quarreling fools, Pilaf sighed. He'd take care of this himself. He didn't need those foolish idiots. Turning to the screen, Pilaf tapping it a few times, the beeping indicating a response. Now where did they go? His eyes widened in horror when he discovered them heading right for his control room!
"OH MY KAMI! SHU, MAI, PUT SOMETHING BY THE DOOR!" he screamed in terror. Both of his comrades looked at each other, and then at him. Why would he want something by the door?
Too late.
Both Mai and Shu were thrown to the ground when the blast of a Kamehameha wave came barreling through the flimsy door. They stared up, stunned as the sound of screeching came to their ears. The sight they saw was surprisingly odd. The females were yelling at the tailed boy who covered his ears, wincing. Once they seemed to realize they were being watched, they instantly were silent and glared at Pilaf.
"HA! We found you!" Chichi squealed. "And do you wanna know how?"
Silence.
Once again, she gripped Goku's arm. "HE SNIFFED HIS WAY HERE! HAHA!"
Silence.
"Umm… don't you guys talk?" Bulma finally commented.
"How did you find this room?" the little blue man screamed.
Chichi blinked. "I told you already." She pulled on poor Goku's arm a little more until finally he yanked away. "Sorry. Geez."
"Look. I'm really sick of this. Just give me back my Dragon Ball and I won't
hurt you," Goku stated.
Pilaf laughed. They still didn't know where they were! They were in his castle, in his domain. He smirked just as Mai and Shu stood. "You don't know where you are, do you?" He smiled as his hand moved to the handle of his seat. "You are in MY domain and you are about to go bye-bye."
They blinked.
"What do you mean by that?" Bulma muttered. She had begun to glance around in preparation for strange arrows to shoot from the wall, or other odd traps to spring.
"I mean this." With that, Pilaf's hand slammed down on a small button, and the floor open beneath Bulma and her friends. The only thing that could be heard was their screams as they made a nosedive to the bottom.
~*~
"Oooh… this room looks familiar."
Bulma glared at Yamcha but didn't speak a word. He'll probably scream anyway.
"What DO YOU MEAN THIS ROOM LOOKS FAMILIAR?" Chichi decided to do the screaming for her. "IT'S THE SAME ROOM WE WERE JUST IN!"
"Please do stop screaming," came a voice from behind them. Everyone jumped and turned around, only to see the face of Pilaf. He grinned. "Thank you for that little bit of fun. You actually gave me a scream but I'm going to summon the dragon. Good bye!" The monitor went off, leaving a shocked gang.
"DAMN YOU VEGETA!" Bulma howled. "YOU IDIOT! YOU JUST HAD TO LEAVE, DIDN'T
YOU! YOU COULDN'T WAIT ONE GODDAMN DAY!" Her screams soon turned to tears.
"My life sucks!"
Chichi calmly went over and soothed Bulma by rubbing Bulma's back much like Chichi's father had always done for her. "Eh… don't worry, we'll get out of here and then we'll get 'em!"
"Hey Goku! Do the Kamehameha and blast a hole through the wall."
Goku nodded. It was a good idea and worth a try. He pulled his hand back.
"Ka… Me… Ha… Me… HA!" A surge of power erupted forth from the young boy's hands, but it only managed to make a little bitty hole. He laughed, as Bulma looked at him before bursting out into tears again. It really wasn't fair! "Wow. That tiny. I guess I haven't had enough training." His laughing was swiftly silenced as Chichi swatted him.
"That's not funny!" she screamed.
"Uhh… gomen?"
Yamcha ran over to the hole, gasping. There were the bad guys, and there were the Dragon Balls… OH NO! "Puar! Change into a bat! I think you'll be able to fit through!" Nodding, Puar rolled herself over once, and with a *poof*, she transformed and flew through the hole.
Bulma watched the courageous little cat go and suddenly glared at Oolong. "Get your tail up and go help!" she screamed.
"What? No way in Kami's name am I going out there!" Oolong screamed back. He had no designs on getting himself skewered.
"Go NOW! Or else I'll say it!" she threatened, a warning note evident in her voice. Oolong grumbled a few cruses under his breath before a cloud of smoke surrounded him, and he turned into a disgusting looking bat. "Go now Oolong," she ordered again. He nodded and flew through the hole after Puar.
As the two shape shifters left, the room-bound crew could hear thunder echo throughout their cell. Bulma rushed to the hole, pushing Yamcha out of the way, just in time to see a huge Dragon coil itself in the sky. She sniffed. All that traveling… all that time… was about to go to some little blue idiot! She couldn't help but stare in awe. The Dragon was amazing.
"This is cool…" trailed Yamcha.
"Nice… Sweet… Goku and I back here are beginning to wonder WHAT it looks like," Chichi not so subtlety reminded them.
"Yamcha move," Bulma ordered as her eyes didn't stray from the small hole.
"Wha… I don't…" he gasped, looking over his shoulder and realized SHE was next to him. Screaming, he threw himself against the nearby wall, allowing Chichi to peak out.
"Oooohhh, it's big… and pretty… Goku! Do another Kamehameha!" she ordered, moving out of the way. Bulma did the same.
"But… I can't… I'm tired… hungry." He collapsed to the floor.
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN," Bulma screeched. Moaning, she didn't even want to *think* about how much money had she spent buying food for him, and then every one else on the list. "You can't really be serious." The thump of Goku falling to the ground made both girls look at each other.
"Wow… it was nice knowing you Bulma. I mean, in a few minutes we're going to be under the rule of a little blue thing."
Bulma glared. This really couldn't be happening. This is your fault Vegeta!
~*~
"STATE YOUR WISH SO I CAN GO," the Dragon's voice boomed again. Pilaf grinned.
This was his day. His mommy would be so proud. He was going to rule the world. Him…
"Please, oh GREAT eternal dragon make me the RULER OF THIS ENTIRE P--" Jumping on Pilaf's head, a strange creature interrupted the blue creature's wish, blurting out their own desire.
"I WISH FOR A PAIR OF PANTIES FROM A HOT BABE!"
The crimson eyes of the dragon flashed a brilliant red as everyone else blinked in disbelief and shock. "YOUR WISH IS GRANTED," boomed the Dragon. As the massive lizard disappeared, the dragon balls glowed and rose into the air before scattering. At that moment, a pair of panties fell from the sky, landing on Oolong's hard head.
~*~
"Oh my Kami… Oh my Kami… DID YOU HEAR WHAT THAT MORON WISHED FOR," Chichi howled, angrily.
"What do you think Chichi? Huh? OF COURSE! THAT DIRTY LITTLE IDIOT!" Bulma howled back, just as loud.
"GOKU! DO THE WAVE NOW!"
"But… Chichi!"
"NOW!" While he stood once again, both females slid to the side to give him space.
"Ka… me… ha… Me… HA!" The ball of light erupted from his hands, blowing the wall to bits.
"Wow. That was neat. What happened?"
Bulma cringed and quickly explained the rest of the legend, about how the Dragon Balls would scatter and be inactive for a year. Goku's eyes widened. That meant his Grandpa was gone.
"Uh, well in that case, since the Dragon Balls are gone for another year… How about we all go to ROSHI'S!" Chichi squealed, not really caring as she raced to the ledge leaving the other behind.
"Hey CHICHI! GET BACK HERE AND WAIT FOR US!" Her head poked back into the room.
"Come on, then."
"Goku get up!" Bulma ordered. The small boy twitched. "Eh, Yamcha, get up and get Goku. He can't move."
~*~
"Get them!" Pilaf screamed. He couldn't believe it. A pig had trashed his whole plan. How could that happen? And what did the pig wish for? Panties. PANTIES! His eyes narrowed at his minions that were in pursuit of the pig and his little kitty friend. He looked up, and was shocked to find the others standing out on a ledge. He growled. "DON'T FORGET ABOUT THE OTHERS! CAPTURE THEM!"
~*~
Running down the tunnels, the group panted as each and every turn seemed to get them more lost. Chichi looked up, glaring at Yamcha who pulled Goku along as they ran. Being as mad as she was, she yelled at him, telling him to stop pulling his arm and just pick him up.
Yamcha threw her an irritated glance, but was unable to answer when Bulma's voice hollered through, stopping the argument that was sure to take place.
"Stop fighting… *pant* we've gotta get outta *pant* *pant* here," Bulma gasped, almost completely out of breath. She wasn't used to doing all of this running. She and the others suddenly stopped as the sounds of barking reached their ears. Bulma made a mighty leap behind Yamcha when she discovered at least twenty dogs coming their way. "ACK! I HATE DOGS!"
"Goku," called Yamcha, "I could use some help here!" Crouching into a fighting stance, he readied himself for battle.
"But… I'm too… hungry," Goku responded, collapsing to the ground.
"Oh get up! You really can't be that starved…" Chichi trailed as he hiccupped. I guess he is starved. She however was pulled back into reality when Bulma grabbed her by the arm, pulling her out of the way of a dog that had been thrown by Yamcha. Face lighting up, she cheered when Goku realized what was coming towards him and promptly jumped up to fight. Although the only thing that went through his mind was dinner.
"Err… thanks," Chichi mumbled.
"You're welcome."
"Hey you two, get up! There's too many, we have to run!" yelled Yamcha as he took off ahead. Chichi jumped up, followed by Bulma who took the time to grab Goku, who was just about to have a *feast*.
They came to a large domed room, and Bulma glanced up, noticing the window. She grinned.
"Goku, we can use you power pole to get out. Come on get up!"
"Uh… right…" Pulling his grandfathers pole from his sheath, Chichi frowned as she remembered her staff that had been lost in the battle with that dumb T-rex. She growled lowly to herself. "Everyone jump on!" Goku yelled as the power pole extended all the way to the ceiling… but not high enough for them to reach the window. The entire group complained gripping the pole tighter.
"Goku," whined an irritated Chichi as she placed one foot on top of Bulma's head, "make it go HIGHER!"
"GET YOUR DAMN FOOT OFF MY HEAD CHICHI!" hollered Bulma.
"I can't! I'll fall!" she screamed back, trying not to glance down. Bulma wasn't allowed time to make a comeback as the pole began… to tip.
"AAAAHHHH!!!"
((Thump))
Everyone plummeted to the ground just in time to stop Oolong and Puar from escaping. Yamcha jumped up, screaming, but didn't have time to look over his various injuries as another stream of wolves began to attack.
Chichi at that instant became highly aggravated as the dogs surrounded her and Bulma, who for her part was gripping a small pole in her hands. She didn't want to go through this! She wanted to go to Roshi and get trained. That was ALL!
"Grr… AMOZO… FLAMES!" she screeched as a burst of fiery ki swam around her and charged at the dogs, which like the T-Rex had the common sense to run. A wide grin appeared over her face. She hated that attack because of the fact that it was entirely too hot but… wait a sec…
"Bulma are you… Eh… Hi," Chichi stuttered. Her eyes wandered over to Bulma, who was being held at gunpoint. Goku was also in the same predicament, but he was sitting on the ground looking dazed.
"I do hope you know when to stop." Mai began smirking. "You don't want to see your little friend's brains all over the place do you?"
~*~
The full moon shined brightly on our pathetically trapped heroes. Oolong, for all his help, made it worse by commenting that they would never break out. Goku blinked, staring up at the ceiling.
"It looks like there isn't a roof up there."
"Don't do that Goku," Chichi warned, watching him as he crouched and prepared to jump. He didn't listen.
((BANG))
Goku fell to the ground, rubbing his head. "That hurt."
"I TOLD YOU NOT TO JUMP, DIDN'T I?" Chichi screeched, pissed off with the fact that he didn't listen.
"Stop fussing you two! We have to get out of here and find the Dragon Balls," Yamcha demanded.
"Oh, shut up you idiot," growled Bulma. "You have to wait anyway. The Balls won't become active for another year." She turned her head from him as he whined.
"HA!" A little voice boomed through the small room, originating from a small P.A. speaker near the cell's ceiling. "You thought you could get rid of me, didn't you? FOOLS! That's way you will die!" he screamed. "Do you know how you will die? The sun will come up, and… YOU WILL COOK TO DEATH!" He suddenly began to laugh hysterically while both girls looked at each other, twitching. "Now if you don't mind be I'm going to bed! See you in the morning!"
Once his voice was gone everyone began to moan. "I don't wanna die, Goku. I JUST WANT TO GO TO ROSHI'S!" The little princess fell to the ground crying.
"It's so pretty," Puar mumbled. Everyone instantly stopped their crying and looked askew at the cat.
"What's pretty?" Oolong asked.
"The full moon… I want to see something pretty before I die."
"Wow… You know, that reminds me of the story about that monster that comes out at a full moon," Goku suddenly stated. The words 'full moon' had dredged up a memory from Goku's past.
"Goku, please, we don't have time for stories," groaned Bulma.
"HEY! I'm for real. It killed my grandpa and messed up my whole house!"
"Really?" Chichi mumbled. "But, wasn't your grandpa REALLY strong? It must have been a big monster."
"Yeah. I didn't see it, though. I was asleep."
Chichi blinked and glanced over at him. "Asleep?"
"How could you sleep though THAT?" Bulma questioned.
"I don't really know. My Pa told me to never look at the full moon. I did anyway, but it didn't hurt anything." Everyone else seemed to put two and two together. Goku was shocked to see Chichi running away from him and latching onto Bulma's hip. "Umm…"
"Tell me Goku. D-did y-you h-happen t-to look a-a-at the full m-moon t-that day?" Bulma stuttered.
"Well, I wasn't supposed to, but I had to pee."
Everyone backed up a little more.
"What does this mean," Chichi whispered.
"I think it means that we are in trouble," Bulma grumbled back, aware of the fact that Goku's story might have more than a grain of truth in it.
"W-Well… it might not be true," Yamcha added.
"Right. It is not true! Goku is NOT a big monster!" Chichi said. "But, just to be careful, it might be better to tell him not to look at the moon," she added.
"Yeah, good idea." Bulma turned staring the confused Goku down. "DO NOT LOOK BEHIND YOU, THERE IS A FULL MOON!" Upon hearing her words Goku turned and stared into the sky at the moon. ^__^
He laughed. "Oops. I did it again." He grinned, scratching his head.
"You feel… okay?" Chichi questioned.
"Yep. I feel fine."
They let out a breath of relief. But, something snapped...and his eyes widened, gaining a flash to them. His heart began to beat so loudly that they could hear it, the pace quickening. More gasps erupted as his eyes turned blood red and his body began to spout brown fur from his pores. Then, he began to grow at a rapid rate, his body stretching to accommodate the new muscle structure. His face elongated into that of an ape, and seconds later Goku roared and stood up, breaking through the glass ceiling.
A scream rocketed out as the group stared at the monster formerly known as Goku.
-------------------------------
Wow… This was at least 11 pages! (Beta's note: 12! 12 pages! *faints*) *squeals* Anyway, THANK YOU for all of the reviews. I was going to continue this chapter, but I figured it would be better if I stopped. I think I'm going probably type the next part of this and then jump to WereCats. But I'm in so much of a mood for this fic though! I didn't want to stop there actually. *sniff* But, it seemed like a good place.
Oh yeah, I know that a lot of you are mad about Vegeta leaving. I didn't want him to go, but I couldn't keep him in. But don't worry HE'LL be back! *Lol* He shall come back!
Another thing. I wasn't sure if you guys would want me to do the RR Saga. If you all don't want me, to I won't. Everything will go quicker if I don't do the RR Saga. That means I will go into Dragon Ball Z much quicker. It's up to you!
(Beta's note, part deux: Go read Cleaving of Emotion by SkittleKicks. It's got Vegeta! ;P)
