I MADE A MISTAKE! Jeri comes in the middle of the second year not the third.
Ch. 12: Jeri's big performance
(7:45 that night)
When Jeri, Kim, and Piccolo arrived at Capsule Corp. Jeri was instantly pulled away by Bulma for yet another makeover. When she came out she was still wearing the same outfit from before. Her long hair was done up in a half ponytail(does anyone know what that hairstyle is called?)with a gold hair ribbon. She had glidder on her cheeks, eyes, lips, everywhere. There was even some in her hair.
"Woah.... I think Bulma over did it. You look exotic, Jeri-chan." Goku complemented from his spot on the couch.
Jeri blushed a little and said, "Arigato."
Jeri looked around the room, noting the presance of Tein, Yamcha, Choustu, and Krillan for the first time. Goku introduced her to them just recently. Before she could say anything to them Bulma pulled her up onto the small platform that served as a stage for her for the night.
Jeri let out a low sigh as she said, "Okay the first song I'm singing tonight is called Does he Love You."
Then she sang,
####################################
I've known about you for a while now
When he leaves me he wears a smile now
As soon as he's away from me
In your arms is where he wants to be
But you're the one he rushes home to
You're the one he gave his name to
I never see his face in the early mornin' light
You have his mornin', his daytimes
And sometimes I have his nights
But does he love you
Does he love you
Like he loves me
Like he loves me
Does he think of you
Does he think of you
When he's holdin' me
And does he whisper
Does he whisper
All his fantasies
Does he love you
Does he love you
Like he's been lovin' me
But when he's with me he says he needs me
And that he wants me, that he believes in me
And when I'm in his arms, oh he swears there's no one else
Is he deceiving me, or am I deceiving myself
But does he love you
Does he love you
Like he loves me
Like he loves me
Does he think of you
Does he think of you
When he's holdin' me
And does he whisper
Does he whisper
All his fantasies
Does he love you
Does he love you
Like he's been lovin' me
Oh, shouldn't I lose my temper
Oh, and shouldn't I be ashamed
Cause I have everything to lose
And I, I have nothing to gain
But does he love you
Does he love you
Like he loves me
Like he loves me
Does he think of you
Does he think of you
When he's holdin' me
And does he whisper
Does he whisper
All his fantasies
Does he love you
Does he love you
Like he's been lovin' me
Oh, does he love you?

A round of applause went up for the girl as her voice faded into the night.
Jeri's smile was ear to ear as she was complemented again and again.
In his corner of the room Piccolo beamed with pride as his student was justly applauded once more.
"You were amazing, Jeri." Bulma said, awed.
Vegeta snorted, but even he knew to give credit where it was due. Plus he didn't want to face the wrath of the woman who invented the mallet of doom.
Walking over to Jeri he said, "Very impressive, girl, but can you do the same with something more upbeat?"
Jeri smirked, "Is that a challenge, Vegeta no Ouji?"
Vegeta's mouth came open to say something in return, but he decided against it.
'Will this female ever cease to surprise and amaze me? Probably not.'
Kim exchanged a look with Jeri.
Jeri nodded.
Piccolo missed the exchange.
He said, "Jeri."
Jeri looked up and said, "Yes, sir?"
"You know that song you were singing the first time I heard you sing?"
"Hai."
"I'm using my condition. I want you to sing it and knock that arrogent saiyajin's socks off."
Jeri smirked exactly like her mentor and said, "Way ahead of you, sir."
Kim silenced everyone. She loved this song.
Jeri said, "This one's called The Power of Love, and yes it is upbeat."
Jeri tapped her foot as the music started playing.
She sang,
####################################
There comes a time
When you face the tuffest of fights
Searching for a sign
Lost in the darkest of nights
The wind blows so cold
Standing alone
Before the battles begun
But deep in your soul
The future unfolds
As bright as the raise of the sun.
####################################
The special forces clapped to the beat of the song. Jeri put a little more effort into her voice as she sang,
####################################
You've got to beliveeee
In the power of love
You've got to beliveeee
In the power of love
The power of love
####################################
She then walked right up to an unsuspecting Vegeta and circled him as she sang,
####################################
Blazing emotion
####################################
She put her hand on the prince's chest near his heart.
####################################
"There's a light that flows from your heart
Its a chain reaction
And nothing will keep us apart"
####################################
She twirled away from the bewildered prince's side. She came to a stop in front of her sensei who smirked at her.
Looking at him she said,
####################################
"Stand by my side
There's nothing to hide
Together we fight to the end"
####################################
She held her hand out to Piccolo and sang,
####################################
Take hold my hand
And you'll understand
what it truly means to be friends
####################################
The Namekian warrior took her hand twirled the female up to him. He then took to step (matched her pace) and danced with her.
She sang,
####################################
You've got to beliveeee
In the power of love
You've got to beliveeee
In the power of love
The power of love
####################################
Piccolo let her go and sat back down, all eyes on him for a moment.
Jeri sang,
####################################
It gives meaning to each moment
Its what our hearts are all made of
You've got to believe (you got to believe)
In the power of love(power of love)
The power of love(power of love)
####################################
Jeri twirled and danced around with Krillan and Gohan as the song entered a really long guitar solo.
Piccolo watched them silently and chuckled softly when Gohan and Jeri collided and fell to the ground. (Bonk!)
Jeri got up just as the song started back up.
She sang,
####################################
You've got to beliveeee
In the power of love
You've got to beliveeee
In the power of love
The power of love
It gives meaning to each moment
Its what our hearts are all made of
You've got to believe (you got to believe)
In the power of love(power of love)
The power of love(power of love)
In the power of love
In the power of love
In the power of love
####################################(Phew! I'm tired.)
She bowed as applause rang out once more through the large room.
Vegeta was very confused. This female, Jeri, was not the least bit afraid of him and yet she still held the upmost respect for him. Addressing him as sir or prince. She did things to him... Things he didn't understand. Things he didn't like. She could simply touch him and a light surge would run up his spine. He didn't understand all the disturbing thoughts and feelings that ran through him when she was near.
He got possesive every time she was around her sensei and friends. He hated the Namek with a vengence for his role in her life.
He knew he really needed to get off planet for awhile and go train somewhere far away from the distracting female half saiyan.
Jeri didn't feel like singing anymore and prayed that a decent song would come on the radio so she could have some fun.
Then, as luck may have it, the song Cowboy (Kid Rock) came on the radio.
Jeri's and Kim's eyes lit up in reconition as the song started up.
Since they had moved the party to the Capsule Corp's bar Jeri and Kim decided to knock their socks off with a little dancing, Cyote Style.
Jeri vaulted onto the bar and pulled Kim up with her.
After one more exchange of looks they cut loose and put dance to music.
The mouths literally hit the floor when Piccolo climbed up there with them and started dancing with Jeri. There was no space between the female half-saiyan and the Namekian warrior as they continued to dance.
Kim stared as she thought, 'Puff! How come he lets her get that close? He's...being...social..sorta. Its kinda weird. Its apparent they're close friends, but how many privlidges does he give her? Could she be his girlfriend? No! Puff! That's not it. She acts too much like his little sister or daughter for that.'
She saw Jeri duck under the large green man's arm and come up behind him. Then he twirled around to face her and picked up the dance again.
Kim's mouth fell open, 'Damn he's good! Nice ass too... Ack! Okay Kim-chan pure thoughts. Pure thoughts. The guy is a cartoon. Don't flirt with the cartoon. Ah, what the hell.'
Jeri was oblivious to the stares of the people around her as she continued the exotic style of dance she used. When the song went off she was poised in the final motion of the song which was with one hand on his chest and the other to her side while both his hands rested on her waist. (Go P-chan! Go P-chan! Go P-chan! Go P-chan!)
He let her go and stepped back as he was bombarded with questions from his friends about what he had jsut revieled he could do.
As Jeri tried to come to her sensei's aid Kim slipped around and popped a tape into the radio.
As the first song started playing Jeri's eyes lit up with a brightness none of them had ever seen, except Kim. She'd Give Anything to Fall in Love was playing. Jeri rushed through the crowd, grabbed Piccolo by the hands, pulled him out of the crowd, put her arms around his neck(even though he's like 8ft and she's only 5ft11), and started swaying to the music.
Piccolo was bewildered for a few seconds before he figured out what was going on and slowly wrapped his arms around her slim waist.
For a guy he was really graceful, and it showed in his easy movements.
Bulma thought it was a cute little scene (she would she's the matchmaker of the group), Krillan thought that Piccolo had a girlfriend(date crazy baka), Tein thought they looked like close friends(finally someone thats sane), Yamcha wondered if Jeri was single (asshole), and Vegeta was about to kill someone.
Kim let an evil smile creep up onto her face. She was about to be evil to Jeri. (AN:Kim has little devil horns and a demon tail with a pitchfork in her hand. MUWAHAHAHAHA! Achem...Gomen mina I lost my saniy there for a second. Anyway..)
Kim walked over to Vegeta and whispered her plan in his ear.
Vegeta's trademark smirk came on his face as he said, "This should be interesting. You know...for a human you're not so bad. You actually think like a saiyan."
Like?hate?
Read and review.
Shout outs:
loanshark:yes Piccolo and Kim are a couple. Sorry if you thought otherwise.
VEGETASPRINCESS:
Expect to see your debut appearance soon.
chloe: Okay this is how it is. M.Trunks comes from an alternet time line, but Chibi Trunks doesn't exist. Right now I'm in November of the third year of the four year period. Goten will be born at the right time and Vegeta's son will be a year older than him, that son just won't be Trunks.
Well I hope that clears everything up.
