Last Time

________________________________________________________________________

"Okay you two what happened?" asked Serena waiting for the two teen Saiyans

to respond while not being happy by the fact that her kitchen was destroyed.

              "I was trying to make bread and I put to much dough in the oven," said Mina as

she confessed what happened.

               "And as soon as that thing got out of the oven it attack up," said Raditz who

looks a little pale from the lack of oxygen while being trapped inside the dough.

               "You know you could have just used the bread I bought," said Serena as she

carefully stepped inside the demolished kitchen and came back with a loath of bread.

               "Mina I thought you said that there was no bread," yelled Raditz as anger took

control of him.

                "I guess I was wrong," Mina said.

                "WHAT!!!!!" yelled Raditz as he chased her down the hall, ready to kill.

________________________________________________________________________

      Bardock watch in amusement as Mina made a run for it, desperate to escape from her

brother. She however found herself at the corner of the wall.

      "Dad someone's at the door and he want to see you," said Kakarotto tugging on his

father's pants.

      "What? Who?"

      "I don't know," said Kakarotto. He led the way to the door to where Zorn was waiting

patiently.

      "Zorn what are you doing here?" asked Bardock surprised.

      "The King sent me to deliver a message,"

      "Well what is it?" asked Bardock not to happy to be kept in suspense.

      "He wants to see you personally at the palace to talk about some strange activities

happening in the last couple of days,"

      "Activities?" asked Bardock

      "Yes and I will escort you to the palace. Come we must leave immediately and he

request for Serena's presence as well,"

      "Now, but I'm in the middle of a slight problem myself Zorn. Can't this wait till

another day?" pleaded Bardock.

      "No the King's business comes first," said Zorn as he stood up straight.

      "You suck up," said Bardock punching Zorn in the stomach causing him the crunch

down.

       "You are a pain in the ass Bardock. You know that right?" said Zorn laughing as he

stood up straight.

      "Bardock what is going on out here?" said Serena as she came outside.

      "It's a pleasure to see you again Serena. How's Demon treating you?"

      "Zorn it's good to see you again," said Serena as she embraced Zorn in a friendly

hug.

      "Hey my name is Bardock not Demon," protested Bardock.

      "Sure what ever Demon,"

      "BARDOCK!!!"

      "Okay fine Bardock,"

      "Thank you," said Bardock.

      "You're welcome,"

      "Did you ever hear of sarcasm?"

      "Okay Zorn so how are we honored for you unexpected visit?" interjected Serena,

not really in the mood to see a fight take place.

      "The King request for your presence at the palace to discuss about some strange

activities happening outside our planet's orbit and here on Vejitasei," explained Zorn.

      "Activities… What kind of activities?" asked Serena.

      "I don't know,"

      "Well alright. Come in and sit down while I grab a few things," requested Serena.

      "Thank you,"

      "Hey Zorn can I bring someone with me? I'm pretty sure he would love to meet the

King," asked Bardock.

      "Who?"

      "Just someone," said Bardock not ready to announce Vegita's identity just yet.

      "If the King is in a good mood," said Zorn.

      "Okay give me a sec," said Bardock as he dashed to the living room. He searched

the room until he found Vegita staring out through the window.

      "Vegita," said Bardock trying to get the prince's attention, but was ignored.

      "Hello Vegita," tried Bardock, but failed once again. This time he tried a different

approach.

      "Well I was going to ask you if you want to see your father, but I guess you don't

so good bye," said Bardock as he walked towards the exit, but was stopped by Vegita.

      *Bingo*

      "What did you say?" asked a surprised Vegita.

      "You heard," said Bardock.

      "Very well I shall come,"

      "Okay now let's tell Zorn," said Bardock as both saiyans walked towards the front

door and by the demolished kitchen. They spotted Zorn at the damaged kitchen door

looking at the mess.

      "What the hell happened here? Looks like a nuclear bomb went off," said a bewilder

Zorn.

      "You're close," chuckled Bardock.

      "What then?"

      "My two oldest kids attempts at cooking,"

      "Damn and I thought your cooking sucks,"

      "Look I can't cook for shit, but a least I don't take the whole kitchen down,"

      "Good point. Who is it that you want to take along with you?" asked Zorn. Vegita

stepped forwards when Zorn asked and smirk when he saw the surprise look on his face.

      "Holy Shit you look just like King Vegita and the Prince," screamed Zorn.

      "I wonder why?" mocked Bardock.

      "Bardock this isn't one of your crazy experiments like last time is it?" fumed Zorn.

      "No last time was just a stink bomb I placed in the air vents of the palace," replied

Bardock casually. He received weird stares from everyone who was around, but chooses

to ignore them. Serena watched from the sidelines and couldn't repress her smile as she

came forward with a small bag under her arm.

      "I'm ready to go if everyone's finished talking and I take it you are coming along too

if I am correct," said Serena to Vegita. Vegita only nodded his head as his answer.

      "Wait one more thing before we leave," said Bardock, heading back to the living

room. He spotted Mina and Raditz taking a nap on the sofa, Mina using Raditz's shoulder

as a pillow and was drooling on him as she snored lightly.

         * How Cute *

      "HEY WAKE UP," yelled Bardock.

          * I hate cute *

      "AHHHH THE EVIL DOUGH IS BACK!!!!" yelled Mina as she woke up from her

nightmare.

      "Uh no honey, the evil dough is gone now remember?" asked Bardock watching

Mina as she lances on the ceiling like a cat, tail puffy and all.

      "Wow Mina you are faster than my cat when it comes to jumping to the ceiling,"

mocked Raditz. Mina fumed with anger at his remark.

      "Well thanks a lot Raditz," said Mina angrily. She tried to let go of the ceiling, but

her right hand broke through and was now stuck inside the ceiling of the first floor.

        * Damn *

      "Guys I have a little tiny problem," said Mina sweetly, pulling at her right arm.

      "What ever it is tell Raditz to help you. I just came to tell you that I want to see this

kitchen cleaned up by the time we get back,"

      "But dad that's going to take a long while to do," protested Raditz.

      "Well I suggest you get started and get some lunch for you and the others at some

fast food place," with that Bardock left with Zorn and the others.

      "I guess I should start," said Raditz leaving Mina alone in the living room.

      "Hey I'm still stuck up here. Hello anyone, someone, GET ME DOWN FROM

HERE," yelled Mina, but nobody came to her pitiful rescue.

          * Major Damn *

-Lab Area

    Bulma spend all morning typing away. The blue hair scientist was trying to figure out

what went wrong with the time portal, which sent her and the Z gang to Vejitasei. Gohan

drowned himself with another cup of coffee or something that resembles it. He lacked

sleep from the previous night. He kept watch all night even though they were in no

danger, but that didn't stop him. He didn't trust one saiyan in particular. Raditz. He could

be acting, playing along with this little game of theirs, waiting to strike. Trust seems like

a very unlikely thing at the time.

      "Gohan this is useless,"

      "What? Why?" asked Gohan wanting to escape from this nightmare of his.

      "It's just hopeless. There could be a million things that could have gone wrong with

the portal and since I don't have my blueprints with me, building another could take me

up to 10 years to do since some of the materials used might not be present here on this

planet," said Bulma, stealing the cup of coffee from Gohan and swallowing it's contents.

      "Well if that's the case then you can go to the planet you came from, which would be

Earth and collect the materials needed to aid you in building whatever the device you

have in your mind," said Raditz as he came into the lab.

      "RADITZ! What are you doing here?" roared Gohan.

      "Uhh I do live here you know," said Raditz, surprised at Gohan's reaction.

      "What are you doing here?" Gohan hissed out.

      "Look I just came to see if any of you wanted something to eat. I'm going out to buy

some lunch,"

      "Then just go already,"

      "What the hell is your problem?" yelled Raditz.

      "YOU. YOU'RE MY PROBLEM!"

      "What! Look the only one here who is having a problem here is you Gohan. You just

don't understand the fact that if one person is a cold blooded murderer in one dimension

that doesn't necessarily mean that they are a murderer in this dimension," yelled Raditz,

becoming angrier with Gohan. Gohan looked shocked. He hasn't told anyone about

it and how did he know? As if Raditz could read his mind he continued.

      "I know Gohan because of that look in your eyes. That look you give me every time

you look at me," said Raditz softly as he stormed out of the lab.

      "Gohan go after him and apologize right this instance," argued Bulma.

      "Apologize?"

      "You heard me. Go apologize NOW!!!"

      "Alright I'm going," rushed Gohan. He left the lab and went in search of Raditz.

       * He was right. I was the one with the problem. I couldn't see the truth *

I know Gohan because of that look in your eyes. That look you give me every time

you look at me.

-Living Room

      "LaLaaLaLaLaLaaaaa!!!" sang Mina as time past by since she was stuck on the

ceiling. Her right arm is becoming a little numb. She heard a door being slammed and

she sees Raditz walking fast, looking very angry.

      "Hey Raditz I need help here I'm…," said Mina, but Raditz just walked pass her, to

angry to hear her, "stuck… " Mina watched as he stormed out of the house and into the

backyard. Gohan came rushing in and was frantically looking around.

      "Great where did he go?" asked Gohan to no one in particular.

      "He went through the back door," came a response. Gohan looked around, but did

not find the owner of the voice, which sounded like Mina.

      "Thanks however you are," said Gohan rushing out to the yard.

      "HEY WAIT," wailed Mina, "GET ME DOWN FROM HERE."

But no one came back.

      "I hate you all and especially the ceiling," growled Mina. Desperate to be released she

started to bite on her own arm.

         * Damn this hurt *

-Backyard

     Gohan rushed outside and searched for the teen saiyan. He spotted him laying down

on a branch of a tree. Gohan took small steps towards him, not sure on how to approach

the situation.

      "Hey may I sit here?" asked Gohan indicating the tree branch near him. Raditz did

not respond and made no eye contact. Gohan kept some distance from Raditz, afraid that

getting too close might enrage the teen saiyan even more. They sat there, not once did

they glanced at each other and just stared at the scenery.

      "Hey Raditz about what I said to you before," Gohan decided to break the silence, "I

really didn't mean what I said back there. I was just really frustrated and I shouldn't have

taken it out on you. I guess what I'm trying to say is that I'm sorry."

Raditz just stared ahead, deep within his own thoughts. The sun was starting to set.

Gohan waited to see if Raditz would accept his apologizes, but the lack of attention he

was receiving from the him made it seems as if the young saiyan rejected his apologize.

Gohan leaped of the branch and made his way back to the house.

      "Gohan?"

Gohan stopped and stared at the saiyan.

      "Yes?"

      "What did I do to get you mad?"

      "It wasn't you."

      "Was it my counterpart then?"

      "It's a long story."

      "I have all the time in the world right now."

      "Are you sure you want to hear it?"

      "Yes."

      "It's very gruesome."

      "Stop trying to escape story time and just tell me."

      "Alright geez you're pushy."

      "I'm what?"

      "Nothing." chuckles Gohan.

-Living Room

      "I'm a little tea pot short and stout. This is my handle, this is my snout," sang Mina,

"I'm a poor tea cup who is stuck to the ceiling and who wants to come down."
