Field Trip to the Future
Chapter 12
Look What You Did!
Goku was bored. Vegeta was irritated.
The Prince of all Saiyans was working on his mate's machine. He had finally been able to
figure out what it did and was now repairing it. Unfortunately, the repairs were quite tedious, and
Vegeta had little patience for such things. Goku hanging around and doing nothing didn't help. Of
course, there was no way Vegeta would let Kakarott touch the machine! Thus he was force to work
alone. The woman's parents were gone on vacation, so they couldn't help him, not that he would
admit to needing help.
Goku, for his part, was waiting patiently, well, as patiently as someone with his attention
span could. The man was a fighting genius, but he could be so childish! Goku turned his attention
to Vegeta, who had begun to curse a storm. "What's wrong, Veggie?"
"I can't find something . . . AND DON'T CALL ME THAT!!"
"What are you missing?" Goku asked, hoping to be helpful.
Vegeta turned to glare at him, then smirked. Kakarott was so dumb. "I can't find the
Internal Distortion Field Dampeners," he replied pleasantly. "It looks like a compressor with
pistons and double-helix coolant tubes." Vegeta smirked.
Goku just smiled. "Oh, you mean the thing that keeps time travelers from aging or
regressing when they go through time?"
Blink, blink, frown. "Uh, well . . . yes."
"It's over on that table," Goku replied pointing. "It's calibration was off and I had to
readjust it." Vegeta picked up the item in question. It was indeed the correct piece, and it was in
perfect repair. He swore under his breath. Blast that Kakarott!
Vegeta returned to his work and installed the part. Goku resumed staring at the wall. After
a few more hours, Vegeta began a few power tests to see if the machine would work and not
explode. He and Goku stood a way from the machine and Vegeta activated it with a remote. The
mass-transit device hummed to life and lights began to blink on various parts of it. Vegeta smile.
"Good, it looks like it's running." At just that time, the machine suddenly died. Vegeta frowned
now. He and Goku walked over to inspect it. "Blast it all! This stupid piece of junk!"
Goku scratched his head. "Maybe we could fix it like I fix Chichi's car."
Vegeta turned to him. "What on Earth are you blabbering about?"
Goku shrugged. He then proceeded to kick the computer terminal Vegeta had been fixing,
leaving a dent in it. "Kakarott! What the HFIL do you think you're -" The machine suddenly
hummed back to life and a blinding light enveloped the room.

Early the next morning, Gohan and the others were up and dressed. Both Bulmas and both
Videls came to see the Saiyans off. The five people who were going to train in the Hyperbolic Time
Chamber appeared, all clad in matching Saiyan armor. Goten and little Trunks were instructed to
carry the box full of extra armor, after all, they could always use a change of cloths.
After eating mountains of breakfast, which the women had gotten up extra early to prepare,
the Saiyan hybrids headed outside with their sendoff. Mirai Bulma gave her son several capsule
containing everything from a warehouse worth of food to a pair of capsule houses with extra
bedrooms and bathrooms.
After saying good-bye to their various mothers, friends, and (for Gohan) future girlfriend
and mother-of-his-not-yet-born-child (which Mirai had actually said, causing the two to blush) they
set out. They flew towards Kami's Lookout staying low and keeping their ki suppressed. Word was
that Brolly was quite a ways away, but why take chances? The flight would be fairly short.
* * * * * * *
Goku and Vegeta landed with a thud on white tile. The two full-blooded Saiyans picked
themselves off the ground, groaning.
"Kakarott! What did you do?!"
"I just kicked it. That's how I usually get the car to start," Goku replied innocently. "At
least the machine worked!"
Vegeta growled. "That's just peachy!"
Goku blinked. "Peachy? Since when did you say 'peachy?'"
"SHUT UP!! You moron! Now we are stuck Kami know's where!"
"Actually, I doubt that Dende has any idea where we are."
Vegeta growled even more. "BE SILENT!!!!" He grumbled under his breath. "Now here
the heck are we?" Goku, who was now obeying the silence command, began to try and
communicate with a cross between mime and sign language. Vegeta, who had turned away, did not
notice this.
* * * * * * *
Gohan and the others arrived at Kami's Lookout in under an hour. Goten and Trunks were
relieved to see the platform. They had been forced to carry the box of cloths between them as
punishment for their prank on Mirai. It looked like Pan was getting off scot-free. No one but Mirai
Videl could resist her Son Puppy Dog Look.
Gohan led the group up to the platform, which, aside from not being well kept, was in fine
repair. Gohan, however, was not ready for what he found there. Two men were having an
argument, one of them was strangling the other. Everyone stared for a few second. Gohan, Mirai
Trunks, and little Trunks all fell over in surprise. Gohan was the first back to his feet, and the first
to break the silence.
"DAD?!"
* * * * * * *
After surveying where they were, Vegeta turned back to Goku, only to find him hopping
around like a mad man with his face blue and his cheeks puffed up. "What the HFIL are you
doing?!"
Goku stopped and let out his breath. "You said not to speak."
A vein began to throb on Vegeta's forehead. "Arg! You moron! What is it?"
Goku smiled. "I know where we are!"
Vegeta blinked. "You do?"
Goku nodded. "Yup! We're on Kami's Lookout!"
Vegeta glared at him. "I knew THAT! I thought you knew what universe or year we were
in or something!"
Goku blinked. "You mean you don't know where we are? That's not good."
"AAAHHHH!!!" Vegeta screamed and grabbed Goku by the throat, shaking him violently.
"Of! Course! I! Don't! Know! You! Got! Us! Stuck! Kami! Knows! Where!"
The two men's attention was suddenly drawn to the side by a cry of surprise.
"DAD?!"
They turned to see Gohan, Mirai Trunks, little Trunks, Goten, and Pan staring at them.
Goku scratched the back of his head. "Well, I guess we found them, huh?"
The vein on Vegeta's forehead became more pronounce. "That's true, Kakarott . . . BUT
KNOW WE'RE STUCK HERE TOO!!!!"
"You don't have to shout! It's not my fault!"
Silence. Blink, blink.
"YES IT IS!!!!!!!!!"
