A/N:  Hey!  I'm back again with another chapter of my Baby! ^______^

Vegeta: *scowls* You have a BABY!!! *menacingly* Whose the father?

YOU!

Vegeta: *sweatdrops* … *faints anime style*

Just kidding Vegie luv, I'm talking about this story!

T-chan; DUH!  *mutters* baka

Vegeta; WHAT did you call me???

T-chan; Oh nothing-- Dear Father-in-law!

Vegeta; *scowls*

Disclaimer; All I own is my ^chopsticks^ and Vegie-darling's Fine Ass ^.~

Vegeta; WHAT! Do not, Woman!  I own my own ass!

No… your ass, and ALL of your gorgeous anatomy belongs to ME; the Great Saiya-jin Mistress Lexi-sama!

Vegeta; *sweatdrop* '…'

~*~ Chapter Sixteen; Evil is Contagious ~*~

~*~

Videl was really confused about everything, as was the rest of the class. 

This entire trip had been one startling revelation after another, and now they were spending the night at a huge corporation! 

And Videl didn't even want to get into all that she'd found out about Gohan so far.  She'd always known he was hiding things… to think; she'd been toying with the idea of him being Saiyaman as his big secret! 

Now it seemed rather ridiculous compared to the multiple things that had been uncovered.  His knowing the Briefs, His knowing to fly, Him being the Gold Fighter, and NOW they all find out that he's on first name basis with KAMI!

It was all wierding her out…

~And what's the deal with Mr. Briefs?~

Vegeta glared at Bulma, turning red in the face as she deprived him of his fun AND sought to berate him in front of these pitiful humans!

"WOMAN!  You have NO right to command, reprimand, or lecture me!"

Ignoring the threats that Bulma was sending through their bond, Vegeta took a deep breathe to continue his rant out loud.  After all, he WAS fiercely irritated about everything that had happened that day, from the shower incident that morning, to the destruction of his GR, to his soaps and now his fun being rudely interrupted. 

HE was the MIGHTY Saiya-jin no ouji!  He was angry, powerful, and in TOTAL control!  NO one, ESPECIALLY a human woman, deprived him of the pleasures of killing in so humiliating a manner!

"I AM THE MIGHTY PRINCE OF THE SAIYA-JINS! I DO AS I PLEASE WOMAN!!!  IF THE BAKA HUMANS OFFEND ME, NO ONE WILL STOP ME FROM BLASTING THEM TO HELL!!!"

He was dark red and visibly smoldering.

The class was staring wide eyed, did he just say what they THOUGHT he just said? 

Or, by some miracle, was the whole class having a mass hallucination along with audio deficiencies? 

No-- apparently they weren't gonna get that lucky.

Bulma glared at her husband's outburst and wished fervently that she had a frying pan handy; she'd have to take a leaf out of Chichi's book and start carrying one around everywhere she went!

"FINE YOUR HIGHNESS!  YOU CAN JUST PARK YOUR ROYAL ASS ON THE COUCH FOR THE NEXT MONTH!"

When he failed to look worried, Bulma decided to up the ante a bit.

"AND DON'T EXPECT ME TO FIX THE GRAVITY ROOM ANY TIME SOON!"

The students had long since begun to crowd together in a huddled mass, backing away slowly; this wasn't something they were sure they wanted to see close up…

"YOU WOULDN'T DARE!"  Vegeta bellowed, horrified in spite of himself.

"YOU WANT TO BET!?"

Vegeta considered the risks, and decided that, no, he didn't want to bet.  He glared at his mate, who was by this time easily as red as he was.

They glared daggers at each other, and at such close range, daggers could be quite deadly.

Luckily for the preservation of the couple, Gohan chose that moment to immerge from the CC building, toting Sharpener in his wake like a frightened puppy.

As soon as he saw Vegeta, Sharpener curled into a ball on the ground and began whimpering like a small child, doing his best to hid behind Gohan's legs.

Gohan rolled his eyes, snorted, and ignored the quivering excuse for a fighter.

~Pathetic- even more so then that bakayaro Hercule!~

Vegeta glanced over and spotted the cowering human.

Smirking, he turned his back on his mate and stalked over to Kakarott's brat.

Gohan toyed with the idea of letting Vegeta have some fun.

~It would serve Sharpener right…~

Images of a bloody and mangled Sharpener were currently a bit more appealing then he cared to admit.

Vegeta drew up in front of Gohan and raised an eyebrow when the young demi-Saiya-jin smirked evilly and stepped aside without trying to prevent Vegeta from getting to the sniveling human. 

Vegeta shared an evil grin with the boy; maybe Karkarott's brat had more Saiyan-jin blood in him then the prince had previously given him credit for!

Smirking, Vegeta readied a ki blast.  Carefully monitoring both the size of the blast, and the boy's ki, Vegeta fired.  He wanted the kid alive for a while at least!

Sharpener screamed in pain as the blast burnt him.  He scrambled away and reached out blindly, catching the first thing that came in contact with his groping hands.

~*~

Trunks and Goten zoomed along.  They had six Dragon Balls now, just one more to go!

Trunks couldn't help but smirk at Goten as they flew along.

~I am proud to say that I think I've finally fully corrupted Goten!  That stunt with Piccolo was pure evil genious!~

After that second Ball, they had gone on to find the third on an island, the fourth in the middle of an extensive network of caves, the fifth in a forest, and the sixth in the middle of a lake.

Suddenly they came to large city.  Pointing down, Trunks grimaced at Goten.

"The seventh Ball is somewhere down there!  We'll have to search on foot so that no one sees us flying!"

Goten nodded and they swooped down and hid their ki again.

"Where to now Trunks?"

"um… that way!" Trunks pointed after consulting the radar.  "It looks like it's pretty close.

After they'd been wandering around for about ten minutes, Goten's stomach rumbled.

"Truuuunks!  I'm hungry!  Can we hurry up and find the last Ball?!"

Trunks glared at Goten, temper getting the better of him, he was hungry too!

"Well I can't really do anything about it right now!  Unless you have a better, quicker way of finding the Ball?"  The last was said with heavy sarcasm, so Trunks was surprised when Goten snatched the radar out of his hands. 

"HEY!"

Completely ignoring his counterpart, Goten tried to figure out how to work the radar.

"You have it upside down, baka." 

Goten's eyes widened in enlightment, and he turned the radar the right way.  Frowning at the screen for a moment, he nodded and set off.

Trunks stared at his retreating back for a minute, unsure of what had just happened.

Then he had to hurry to try and catch up, praying that the other chibi wouldn't do anything too disastrous while he wasn't there to enjoy it.

~*~

Dende sighed with relief as he popped back on the Lookout. 

Thank goodness he had taken the time to learn the Instant Transmission from Goku!  Leaning back he closed his eyes, pondering what he ought to do next.

~I wonder if Piccolo has all the Dragon Balls yet…~

Concentrating, he contacted the older Namek. 

~@ Piccolo, how goes the search for the Dragon Balls?  Found them yet? @~

~@ Goten and Trunks are looking for them right now.  They said that Gohan asked them to. @~

Dende was silent as he digested this new bit of information; why would the chibis want to do something like that?  Most likely another trick.

~@ I hope you didn't actually give them the Balls you'd already found! @~

The reply was rather irritated.

~@ Of course not child!  I am no fool.  I kept one of the Balls so that they would have to come to me when they found the rest. @~

Dende nodded to himself, pleased, but stopped suddenly as a chill feeling of dread passed over him.

~@ Piccolo, will you do me a favor and double check that you still have it? @~

Piccolo grumbled with annoyance, but did as the younger Namek asked. 

To his horror, the Ball was gone!  After a moment of silence Piccolo answered in a calm, but disconnected voice.

~@ Dende… I believe we might have a slight problem… @~

Dende began to sweat, he'd been right!  What was Gohan going to do to him???  And what in the world were those chibis planning to do with the Dragon Balls?

A/N: Well, until next time: Ja!  XD  MWAHAHAHAHAAAA! 

I'm willing to BET that you'll NEVER guess what Sharpener yanked! 

I'll loan Vegeta out for a whole week to the person who can guess correctly! ^.~

Vegeta; HEY! *looks hurt* Do I mean that little to you!? *recovers arrogant stance* Not that it matters-

*grins cheekily* Hey, it's okay Vegie-head!  No one can POSSIBLY guess!  Its unguessable!

T-chan; Isn't that basically what they said about the Titanic?  And didn't it sink on it's Maiden Voyage?

Shut up Tessa-chan.  You really do enjoy ruining my moods, don't you.  *glares*

T-chan; YUP! *yanks Lexi's tail*

YAAAAAAAHHHH!!!! YOU YASHA! BAKAYARO! GOMI! BAKA! *hops around clutching tail*

Vegeta; Bwahahahahaha…
