To give prizes to the people who guessed what Mike was gonna do! *digs around in her prize bag* Um. you people can have. the Goten and Chibi Trunks dolls! *hands out the prizes to DeathStorm, Frozen Phoenix, and Kakarrot-Lover* It's really spiffy! You say 'Fusion Ha!' and they turn into Gotenks!

"Gay?" Rogue offered.

"Yeah, that's the word I was looking for…" I mumbled.

We all stared at Vegeta completely bewildered by his choice of underwear but also happy because we were seeing him in it. When he noticed our stares he turned. "What?" he demanded.

"What is with your… your… underwear?" Bana finally asked.

"Oh, yes. Those." Vegeta looked kind of embarrassed. He was wearing not black silk boxers, not spandex underwear but some odd combination of the two. It was a lot like spandex biker shorts but they were tight… very tight. And wet. The really strange thing about them though, was that they were purple with blue hearts arranged on them in some random pattern. A large, bright, electric blue one was positioned right over that area.

"Did you get those for yourself?" I asked, fearing the worst.

"No. I got them as a present on one of your baka holidays." Vegeta growled while turning and began to scrub the car furiously.

"If you don't like them, why do you wear them?" Bana asked, watching Vegeta scrub with a worried expression, "By the way, lay up on the car a little. You might dent it." While Vegeta had his back turned, Bana snapped a few pictures of him with the camera she had brought.

"Because the baka onna thinks they are 'cute'." Vegeta growled and complied with Bana's request.

"Who gave them to you?" Rogue finally asked.

"Vegeta! You're wearing them!" Kakarot grinned as he popped his head around the side of the car.

"Go away, bakayaro." Vegeta hissed.

"You gave those to him?" I asked Kakarot, my jaw dropping.

"Well, Chi-chi was the one who picked them out. She said they were sexy, whatever that means. She suggested I get them but when I said they didn't look comfortable she bought them as a present from me to Vegeta." Kakarot grinned the Son Grin™.

"Oh Kami…" I rubbed my face. Maybe Kakarot is gay, I mused to myself then dismissed the notion. After all, if he was, he would have reacted differently to the yaoi fic.

"Okay, that's just queer." Bana muttered.

"Extremely queer." Rogue agreed.

"What does 'queer' mean?" Kakarot asked, "Is it a type of food?" his stomach growled loudly. Vegeta rushed and finished the car then hurriedly pulled his pants back on. Thankfully, he left his shirt off and we all were satisfied to ogle that part of him.

I checked my watch. "Bana, it's time to get the chibis. You want to do that?"

"Sure." Bana shrugged.

"Oh yeah," I pulled out my wallet and handed her four fifties, "stop by the grocery on the way back. You know what kinds of stuff to buy."

"Yep. I'll be back later then." Bana climbed into her now clean and shiny car and started it. She stuck her arm out of the window and waved as she drove off. I waved back.

"Is that it?" Vegeta asked.

"Well…" I was tempted to ask him to do something else involving whipped cream but I decided against it, "Yeah, you're free."

"I'm going to snack!" Kakarot made his way to the kitchen and Vegeta followed him.

"Rogue…" I turned to talk to her but she was gone. I scratched my head, "That's funny. She was just here a minute ago…" I shrugged and went to do laundry.

Rogue laughed evilly and watched her victim with a grin. He was sitting in the kitchen, watching the TV and snacking on some cookies. Rogue took out the duct tape and grinned. This was going to be oh so easy. She crept up behind him and before Krillin knew what had hit him, she had wrapped duct tape around his arms and torso. She then slapped a strip over his mouth and picked him up. "Oh, how I am going to enjoy doing this…" she chuckled.

As she was lugging him away, Goku and Vegeta walked in. Goku looked at them, "What're you doing, Rogue?" Krillin began thrashing around even harder and yelling incoherently at Goku.

"I'm just…" Rogue thought fast, "I'm playing a game with Krillin! Capture the criminal! I'm the police woman and Krillin's the robber!"

"Oh… but that duct tape looks like it'd hurt and…" Goku began but Vegeta cut in.

"Shut up, Kakarot! Don't ruin the girl's game!" Vegeta winked at Rogue and grinned. He knew that her intentions for Krillin were nothing friendly and so he approved. Rogue grinned back and dragged the screaming Krillin off.

"Are you sure they're playing a game, Vegeta? Krillin looked kind of scared to me…" Goku mused as he pawed through the refrigerator's contents.

"Come on, Kakarot! He was acting! Leave them to their game and help me clear out this fridge!" Vegeta growled and grabbed a bowl of fruit out. Goku looked at Vegeta suspiciously for a few moments but the nearby food was what made him finally decide. He grabbed a carton of milk and a bowl of fruit and the two Saiyans sat down on the counter to begin their feast… um, snack.

I picked up clothes off my little brother's floor. It was pretty nasty. He had half-eaten food spilled on the bed, dirty underwear hanging off the shelves and he had left his computer monitor on. I sighed and with the long stick I had brought, I began to pick up the clothes.

As I passed the monitor, I couldn't help but look at what was on it. There were two anime pictures. The first was of Piccolo singing 'I'm a Cucumber' and the other was of Piccolo giving an orientation of how Nameks are part amphibian and part plant. That second pic was a pet theory of my brother's and he always was trying to prove it. I sighed as a bad feeling crawled around in my stomach. I hope Zar knows what he's doing… I prayed as I finished cleaning up his room.

I threw those clothes in the laundry room and then collected mine. After that, I walked to Vegeta's room. I opened it and stepped in. My parents' bedroom seemed to have a glow to it, one that I hadn't noticed before. I picked up Vegeta's clothes with a large grin on my face. I held my tousan's shirt up to my nose, the one Vegeta had worn the first day, and breathed in deeply. It smelled like Vegeta. "Now I know what heaven's like…" I muttered to myself as I brought the pile of clothes to the laundry room. I breathed in the smell one more time and then put the shirt in a large zip lock bag. "Now that, is staying on my dresser forever," I instructed myself as I walked down the hall and then placed it on my dresser in my room.

I walked into the pantry room, armed myself with a gas mask, a clothesbasket and a broom and then I entered hell. Now, I've been told that I bash Kakarot too much but I disagree! He deserves everything I say about him! His clothes were all shoved under the furniture and his underwear was draping off a lamp. I guessed Goten had been the one to put the underwear on the shelves in Zar's room. And to think they live under the same roof with the harpy from hell, I thought as I picked up the clothes with the broom, I almost pity her… I put them in the clothesbasket I had brought along which was rightly labeled 'Toxic Waste'.

I was dragging that down the hallway, being careful not to touch any of the contents, when I heard a giggling sound coming from my parents' office. I tiptoed over to the door and cracked it open. Inside, Rogue had Krillin duct taped to a metal chair and was standing by him, rubbing her hands together and cackling quite evilly.

Oookay… I thought as I closed the door as silently as possible, I hope that's not what it looks like. Well, of course it's not because she hates him. Right? I shook my head and walked back to the laundry room to sort out the clothes. I used a long pair of cooking prongs to separate the clothes. Then, I put the first load of shirts in and walked off to the kitchen to make Mike a snack. The poor guy's prolly working really hard…

"Muwhahahaha!" Rogue cackled evilly and grinned at her victim. She watched him cower in the chair in fear. "What shall we do with you, eh?" Rogue laughed to herself as she got out the honey and proceeded to pour it into Krillin's hair.

Kakarot and Vegeta were lying down on the dirty counters, sleeping. While I was making a sandwich, I sighed in disgust as I noticed a trickle of drool coming, not from Kakarot's mouth, but from Vegeta's! I finished making the sandwich, poured a soda and then brought them down to him. He was sitting at a worktable, hunched over and looking like he was concentrating really hard. I set down the tray as quietly as I could and then, as silently as I possibly could, I sneaked behind him to look over his shoulder. He was working on a little, computer chip board thingie. I grinned and breathed into his ear, "Boo…"

"OH MY FUCKING KAMI!" Mike fell out of his chair, throwing his instrument of work across the room. He lay there for a moment, collecting his thoughts, then he sat up and screamed at me, "JUST WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU THINK YOU WERE DOING?"

"Hey! Chill, Mike, and watch the language! You're putting too much pressure on yourself. You don't have to fix it." I said with a smile and helped him to his feet.

"Actually, you'd have to feed them for the rest of their Saiyan lives if I didn't." Mike reminded me.

"Fix it now, Mike." I said in a mock-serious tone. He laughed and I brought the tray over to the worktable while he went to fetch his tool.

He picked up the sandwich as he sat down and took a bite. While he was chewing, he looked over the little computer chip thing. He stopped chewing suddenly and growled, "Bo, get over here." I complied. He held a magnifying glass over one part of the board. "Look through and tell me if you see a scratch." He ordered in a commanding voice.

I looked. "Wow, Mike is your vision really that good?"

"BO! YOU'VE SCRATCHED ONE OF THE MAIN SECTIONS! IT'S COMPLETELY RUINED!" Mike screamed.

"Calm down, Mike. Everything will be all right. It'll work out!" I said in a reassuring tone. Though, deep down inside, I wasn't quite sure about that…

The nine-year-old girl clinked the keys together and walked behind her brother dutifully. She hated going to the grocery store and the only reason she had come was that her brother had let her ride on the moped with him. She sighed and looked around. A boy with purple, no, lavender hair caught her eye. She watched him walk by with another boy about his age with black hair. They were pushing two shopping carts that a teenager was putting items in. "Trunks…" the girl whispered. She walked away from her brother and followed the two boys who she just knew were from DBZ.

When they checked out, she ran ahead of them and started her brother's moped. After they had loaded their two carts into the car, they drove off with the girl quickly pursuing them. As she followed them, the only thoughts in her mind were that of Trunks.
