The Good, the Bad, and the Sleep Deprived
Chapter 9
Warnings: some Mirai Trunks torture ^___^ poor baby.. Disclaimer: Do I look like I own something like Dragonball Z? I mean, I'm not exactly living in this huge mansion complete with butlers, maids, an excruciatingly large swimming pool, and the like. But for those of you who just don't get it, *sigh* I don't own DBZ.
Mirai Trunks Clone: Now, that wasn't so hard, was it? leelee: Quiet, clone! Don't make me have to use the Big Book of Author Tortures on you! Mirai Trunks Clone: Eheheh..
Note: Last chapter wasn't exactly action-filled.Gomen. ^^;;; Which may be why it wasn't really my favorite. And I agree with SSJ Son Kat. It is funnier when he's mad. ^-^ So I had some sort of inspiration strike me (at about 1 in the morning..) and I decided to write this chapter. I hope it's good. Though I've only got enough inspiration for about half of this chapter. *sweatdrop*
****************
Fifteen minutes later, the quartet reached the kitchen. They would have gotten there sooner except they had a couple of um, delays. Goten had to tinkle, and Chibi Trunks had to be a brat. When they finally did arrive at their destination, Mirai Trunks placed Marron on the table and asked the boys what they wanted to eat.
Goten raced to the refrigerator and promptly began to clean it of its contents. Marron giggled as she watched him with amusement. Mirai leaned against the counter and folded his arms. Goten seemed to be helping himself, so why should he bother him? All he had to do was make sure he didn't consume something inedible-like the refrigerator. Trunks smiled as he realized his work was done.
Or so he thought.
'Okay, Marron's laughing, Goten's eating, but where's Chibi?' he silently mused.
Just as the question crossed his mind, he felt Chibi's ki above him. He looked up to see Chibi levitating over his head holding what seemed to be a bag of flour.
RRRRIIIIIIIPPP!!!!!!!!
"CHIBI!!!!!!!!!!!!" Mirai Trunks yelled as a cascade of white powder covered his body and the floor around him.
Goten and Marron looked up and smiled. "Mr. Trunksie looks like a ghost!!" squealed the little blonde child.
Mirai Trunks clenched his fists and barred his teeth. 'This is not my day.' he thought as his present counterpart engaged himself in hysterical laughter. Mirai growled and with lightning-fast speed, grabbed Chibi by his throat and brought him down to face level.
"Look you little carpet-muncher," he said in a venomous tone. "I have had just about enough of you and your 'jokes'! I was nice enough to let you and your demon spawn friend out of the gravity room and actually allow you to eat. AND THIS IS HOW YOU THANK ME???!!!!!"
Chibi Trunks grinned. "Hey, I have to get my kicks somehow."
"Oh I'll give you a few kicks all right," he replied narrowing his eyes.
At that moment Gohan and Krillin decided to make their appearance. They stood in the doorway watching the spectacle unfolding in front of them. Trunks was covered in flour and tightly holding his grinning miniature self by his throat, glaring daggers. Krillin cleared his throat to notify them of their presence.
Mirai and Chibi glanced in their direction. Mirai scowled. "What do you two want? I'm busy."
"Eheheh..yeah. We noticed," Gohan said a bit nervously. "Um, we just wanted something to drink." He paused and then dared to ask, "What happened?"
Mirai Trunks glowered. "Isn't it obvious?" He frowned. "And here I thought you were the scholar of the family."
Gohan blinked. "Okay, since you're not having such a wonderful day, I'll let that slide. But why don't you put Chibi down. He's uh, turning blue."
Mirai looked at Chibi and indeed, he was turning an interesting shade of blue. He let go of his younger self and Chibi dropped to the floor, gasping. He looked at Mirai and growled. He stood up, walked over to Goten, and whispered in his ear. Goten grinned mischievously as they walked out of the kitchen.
All of this went unnoticed by the three adults. Krillin lifted his daughter off the table and held her hand as she stood next to him.
"What is it with them and practical jokes?" Krillin asked.
"Aw, come on. They're kids," Gohan replied. "Didn't you used to do that when you were their age?"
Krillin chuckled lightly to himself as he remembered his childhood. "Okay, you've made your point. But my gosh Trunks. You seem to be they're only target today. What did you do?"
"What did *I* do???! *I* didn't do anything! I was in my room, minding my own business, TRYING to get the sleep that I lost last night working on that damn time machine, and they just came in and dyed my hair!! They've been torturing me all day! I didn't asked for any of this!"
Gohan smiled. "I do feel bad for you and all, but I guess they're still sore about the whole wishing them bald thing. That was a bit harsh."
"Those damned bastards deserved it!!!" Mirai Trunks yelled. "Besides, it'll grow back eventually. They are only half Saiya-jins. And that was nothing compared to what they've done to me all day!!!"
"Speaking of the boys, where are they?" Krillin asked, looking around the kitchen.
Mirai Trunks blinked and involuntarily flinched. He had no idea where they were, but he had this disturbing feeling that it had something to do with him. His prediction was confirmed when Marron pointed above his head and said,
"Hey look! There they are!"
Mirai Trunks looked up in time to get a face full of scalding hot water that would burn any normal human's skin on contact. Luckily, he was a hybrid and his skin was tougher than that. The water didn't burn his perfect skin, just made him very um, not happy.
"WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT FOR???!!!!!!!" Mirai shouted.
"Well," Chibi began, "You were so upset about being covered with flour, I decided I would be nice and help you wash it off. Now, wasn't that nice?"
"You are really grating on my last nerve, brat," he said, his voice low and glaring a glare that would make even Vegeta shiver with fear.
"Eh, uh, Trunks?" Gohan said. "Um, don't do anything that you'd regret later. What would Bulma say if you killed, er..yourself.."
"She won't miss him that much," he muttered.
Gohan and Krillin sweatdropped. Chibi smirked and crossed his arms. "That should teach you not to trust a boy who's out for revenge."
Mirai Trunks' eyes flashed green and his hair flickered gold, his ki sky- rocketing momentarily. Then he frowned and said, "I don't have time for this."
Chibi watched as his dripping counterpart walked away. He smirked in triumph. Mirai Trunks may have been good, but he was better. Much better.
"And you don't mess with the best," Chibi said to himself.

So Chibi got a little repetitive. It's not my fault. I told you I only had inspiration for half a chapter. ^-^;; *ahem* Mirai is ticked off again. What will he do now? He backed off for a while, but that could only mean trouble for our innocent Chibi Trunks.
Mirai Trunks: *frowns* Innocent my ass! leelee: *sweatdrop* My poor sweetie. I assure you, justice shall be served. Mirai Trunks: *crosses arm* When? leelee: All in due time, dear. All in due time. Mirai Trunks *glares* leelee: *glomps* My Kami, you're hot when you're mad. Mirai Trunks: *blush*
