A New Sayian
Chapter 3: Explanations

(A/N: I hope you enjoy! I don't own DBZ or any of its characters. I also do NOT own Cheena, Miyuki, Risika or Chico.)

"I was sitting there!" Goten yelled at Cheena, who sat in her chair by the dinner table grinning at him.

"You weren't sitting here when I got here." Cheena replied. Goten was about to respond when Chi-Chi interrupted.

"Goten, it's just a seat. I can't believe you're being so childish." She said. Goten looked at her, mouth wide open. Cheena laughed out loud, but stopped when Chi-Chi glared at her.

* I'm being childish? Cheena's the one who stole my seat purely from the fact that I had it! * Goten yelled in his head. He closed his mouth, sighed and sat next to Chico.

"I wonder what time Risika will be back." Cheena said before she began to eat.

"She called earlier to sat she'll be back at tea-time." Chi-Chi said as she ate her food quietly. The others were cramming as much food in their mouths as they could, including Vegeta.

"Finished!" Cheena said as she got up from the table. She took her plate to the sink and dumped it there. Just then, there was a knock on the door. Cheena ran over to answer it.

"Hey Trunks! Why are you here?" She asked as she wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him on the cheek. Trunks smiled as he hugged her back.

"Can't I Call at the house of my fiancée?" He asked playfully. Cheena sighed as she looked at him.

"Of course you can, I just thought there was a reason for you to be here, other than to see me." Cheena replied. Trunks stepped into the house. He saw Vegeta and stared at him.

"Why is he here?" Trunks whispered to Cheena. Cheena looked at him then at Vegeta and back to Trunks.

"Didn't you're mom tell you? She kicked him out today." Cheena said. Trunks looked down at her.

"Yeah, I knew. I was in the room when she accused him of having an affair and threw him out." He explained. Cheena's mouth flew open in disbelief.

"Vegeta? Having an affair? No, not even he would go that low.......would he?" Trunks shrugged his shoulders. "The evidence is stacked against him. For nearly a year now, he's been taking off at night without telling us. He says he goes to the mountains to think, but we all know that's not where he goes." He explained. Cheena nodded her head in understanding.

"So where does he go?" Cheena asked.

"We don't know, but my mom believes he's having an affair. And if he's not, the fact that he's been going off in secret has pissed us all off. I mean, what could he be hiding apart from another relationship?" Trunks asked. Cheena shrugged her shoulders.

"Hey Trunks, what are you doing here?" Goku asked as he walked over to them. Vegeta hadn't looked up once from his plate.

"Just here to see Cheena." He answered. Goku saw that Trunks was a little angry by something.

"I might sound out of place saying this, but are you ok? You look like you've seen something you didn't really want to see." Goku asked. Trunks looked at him and sighed.

"You have no idea." Trunks said before following Cheena up to her room. Goku went back to the table to clear his plates and dump them in the sink. He noticed Vegeta had stopped eating, but there was still food on his plate.

"Hey Vegeta, what's up with Trunks? I mean he didn't even say hi to you." Goku asked. Vegeta growled and slammed his fist on the table, causing the plates to jump, including Goten, Chi-Chi and Goku.

"None of you're damn business Kakarot!" He yelled. Chi-Chi glared at him and stood up as well.

"Uh-oh, I better leave." Goten said to himself. He quickly crammed his mouth with as much food as he could before slipping away and out the front door.

"How dare you speak to Goku like that? We give you a room for a few nights, and when we ask you what's wrong, you yell at us for no good reason! Either tell us what's up or you can get out!" Chi-Chi yelled at him. Vegeta growled at sat back down. He knew that Chi-Chi would carry out that threat and that Goku wouldn't go against her decision. Vegeta frowned and folded his arms across his chest.

"The woman has thrown me out of the house, she's accusing me of having an affair. Which is a lie. She's turned Trunks and Bra against me. That's why he didn't look too happy to see me here." He explained quickly. Both Chi- Chi and Goku stared at him. Even they knew he wasn't capable of an affair.

"Why is she accusing you of having an affair?" Chi-Chi asked, sitting back down.

"I've been going for midnight flights nearly every night for the past year. I go up to the mountains overlooking the city and think." Vegeta replied, still frowning.

"Did you tell Bulma that?" Goku asked. Vegeta only nodded his head.

"Did you tell her what you think about?" Chi-Chi asked.

"What's with the questions!? Can't a man have a few secrets?" Vegeta yelled before getting up.

"Not if those secrets destroy a marriage and a man's relationship with his kids." Goku replied. Vegeta mumbled under his breath and walked out of the house.

"That man is so irritating." Chi-Chi said as she cleared away hers and Vegeta's plates.

"Yeah but that's him for you." Goku replied. He went upstairs and knocked on Cheena's door.

"Come in!" Cheena said. She was lying on her bed, Trunks was sitting next to her. Goku walked in and leant against Cheena's computer desk.

"Hey Che, hey Trunks. You're father just told us what happened. Are you sure he's having an affair? I mean not even Vegeta would do that, he respects you're mother more than you think he does. He wouldn't stoop so low." Goku said. Trunks snorted and looked out the window.

"You don't know him like we do Goku. He ignores us all, he wouldn't even look at my mom when she was yelling at him earlier." He said quietly. Goku sighed.

"Maybe, but he loves you all. When Cell nearly killed you're future self, he flipped. He turned USSJ and blew Cell to kingdom come. He nearly destroyed the Earth in doing so. And when he self-destructed to destroy Buu, he did it for you and Bulma. It was his way of making sure you were safe. He'd do anything for you, and he wouldn't cheat on Bulma. He'd consider it as an offence to himself that he'd cheat on her with a weak earth-woman. And Bulma is no way near weak. That's why he fell in love with her." Goku explained. Trunks sighed and shrugged his shoulders.

"Maybe you're right Goku, but we won't find out for sure until he grows up and tells us exactly what's been going on." He said. Goku nodded his head and left the room.

* What the hell gives them the right to ask me all those questions? I feel like my life is one big T.V show and that everyone HAS to know what's wrong when something happens. * Vegeta thought to himself as he flew through the air over the country that surrounded the Son residence.

"Cheena! Miyuki's here!" Chi-Chi yelled up the stairs. Cheena ran down as fast as she could. Miyuki was sitting in the living room with Goten. She stood when Cheena and Trunks reached the bottom of the stairs.

"Why didn't you come up?" Cheena asked. Miyuki looked at Goten and sighed.

"We saw Vegeta flying over the forest just now. Goten flew up and asked him what was wrong. Vegeta went nuts on him, yelling stuff about affairs and women and questions." She explained. Cheena sighed and shook her head.

"When will that man learn that you can't go through this life without talking about you're feelings? He's as stubborn as a mule and just as ugly." Cheena joked. She, Trunks, Miyuki and Goten burst out with laughter.

Vegeta landed on the mountain he usually goes to after his dreams. He lay down on the grass and looked into the sky.

"Why did things have to complicate further? I'm not used to adjusting to situations that are not in battle." He said to himself. He closed his eyes and thought of his dream. After what felt like hours, he opened his eyes again. The sun was beginning to set. There was a chill in the air that even Vegeta felt.

"Humph! I better get back otherwise Kakarot's woman would whine like she normally does." Vegeta said to himself as he got up. He flew back to the Son household. As he landed on the porch, he heard arguing inside. Vegeta sighed and walked in.

"Cheat!" Chico accused Risika. Risika looked around with a smirk on her face.

"Who? Me? I'm no cheater." She said, giving everyone an innocent look. Chico snorted and pointed at the two dice that lay on the game board.

"Those dice said eight, you moved nine spaces just so you could have an extra go. And when we went to say that you moved an extra space, you picked the dice up so we couldn't prove that you cheated!" Chico yelled. Risika held up her hands in defeat.

"Ok, ok. Jeez, it's just a game Chico, no need to go nuts." She said as she moved her piece back one space. Risika, Chico, Cheena and Goten sat on the floor in the living room playing a board game while Goku and Chi-Chi sat on the settee watching T.V. Vegeta walked in and sat in the chair next to the settee. Goku and Chi-Chi looked at him and then back to the T.V.

"Where do I sleep tonight Kakarot?" Vegeta asked without even looking at them.

"Down here, if you don't mind. We don't have a spare bedroom." Goku replied. Vegeta grunted in acknowledgement.

"As long as it's not a park bench, I don't care." He said. Goku chuckled and shook his head.
