Quote of the Week: -from MTV's "The Big Urban Myth Show"

True Fact: The colors red, yellow, and orange are appetite colors which influence the brain to become hungry.

Chuey's Corner:

Vegeta: (looks over at Goku's orange gi and sweatdrops) Well that explains a lot.

Goku: (grins) Aw, Veggie's always hungry too! He just doesn't always wanna admit it cuz of his lil-lil Veggie-pride!

Vegeta: I AM NOT! (snorts) I just have more self-control over my hunger than the peasants of my species happen to have.

(folds his arms and nods)

Chuquita: (smirks) Sure you do, Veggie.

Vegeta: (only half-listening) Of course I do! (nods again)

Chuquita: (sweatdrops) Right. (happily) Anyway! Welcome to Part 4 and Episode 10 everybody!

Goku: (smiles) See! We only skipped one episode instead of four like last time!

Chuquita: This is also the last chapter of this fic if you don't count the mini-chapter after this that I mentioned in

Part 3! Believe me, you didn't miss much in episode 9. Trunks tried his hand at being a professional ship-pilot even though

he's still a beginner, the Para Para Bros. and a group that looks to be the outer-space counterpart to the Red Ribbon Army

were introduced along with this magical whip that can turn people into dolls.

Goku: (staring at Veggie, little smile appears on his face)

Vegeta: (dead serious and a little frightened) Don't even THINK about it!

Chuquita: The Para Bros. were sent out to go retrieve the other dragonball that they had "forgotten" to steal while Goku &

the others tried to get the Para's dragonball from them. They ended up on a planet called Beehei-sei which is inhabited by

GIANT YELLOW WORMS!

Vegeta: (nearly chokes)

Goku: Oh yeah, (grins) my little Veggie is a-fraid of worms!

Vegeta: (snaps) NO KIDDING!!

Chuquita: The worms's species even have a name!

Goku: (chirps) The Ooma!

Chuquita: The ship is flying around on Beehei-sei while the gang searches for the Para Bros and being chased by the giant

worms is pretty much where we're starting from.

Goku: (giant grin) And Veggie gets to DANCE with me! (glomps onto Veggie) (happily) It will be magical!

Vegeta: (smirks) Not if I stay inside the ship and lock myself somewhere so I don't become hypnotized by the dance!

Goku: (pouts) Aw Veggie, but that would be no fun!

Chuquita: (happily) Yeah Veggie! We have such a blast with you around! It's boring when you're not here!

Vegeta: (blinks) Really?

Chuquita: Of course.

Goku: (whips around and is now wearing a sombaro and shaking two maracas) IT'S CONGA LINE TIME LITTLE VEGGIE! (plops his

hands on Veggie's shoulders) Come on Veggie! Conga with me!

Vegeta: (twitches) WHAT THE HECK IS CONGA! AND GET YOUR HANDS OFF MY SHOULDERS!!

Goku: (plops his head on Veggie's shoulder as well) Veggie get up out of his chair and I will show you!

Vegeta: (grimaces) I'm not sure I want to now.

Chuquita: Aww, of course you do!

Vegeta: (snaps) YOU'RE JUST APPEASING HIM BECAUSE YOU FIND MY SITUATION HUMOROUS!

Chuquita: ...yes.

Vegeta: KUSO! (tries to push Goku's hands off his shoulders only to be lifted up out of his chair and spun around on his

toes)

Goku: (cheering) COME ON VEGGIE! LET'S GO! (pushes Veggie foward as he congas himself) Just follow my lead!

Vegeta: HOW CAN I FOLLOW YOUR LEAD IF YOU'RE BEHIND ME!

Goku: (thinks) Hmm, good point. (teleports infront of Veggie) Grab my shoulders little buddy!

Vegeta: NOT A CHANCE

Goku: (pouts) Aww, come on! It'll be fun!

Vegeta: (snorts) ...fine.

Goku: YAY! (snaps his fingers and snappy music instantly comes on) (teasingly) Hurry up little Veggie! If I conga too far

ahead you'll never catch up!

Vegeta: (glares) YOU WANNA BET! (runs up to grab Goku and tries to keep in pace with him)

Chuquita: Well, this is, interesting. (sweatdrops) (grins) Here's Part 4 everybody!

Summary: When Veggie makes a deal with Pan to become a 2nd stowaway on the spaceship, Goku and Trunks find out they have an

additional crew-member. However, thanks to a special cure created by the Ouji, Goku is now able to temporarily fight off the

curse and keep his adult body for weeks at a time! But will it along with the power of the saiyajin no ouji be enough to save

them from a giant earthquake-causing blob and an embarassing hypnotic dance on their journey to gather the dragonballs?

Find out!

*****************************************************************************************************************************

      " KUSO~~! CAN'T THIS THING GO ANY FASTER!! " Vegeta screamed as he piloted the spaceship. A giant yellow worm on the

ship's tail and closing in.

      " KAASAN DIDN'T MAKE THIS SHIP TO BE A FIGHER, TOUSSAN! IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE MORE LIKE A BUS OR A TAXI OR SOMETHING! "

      " WELL SHE OBVIOUSLY HAD NO IDEA ABOUT SOME OF THE DANGERS INHABITING SPACE NOW, DID SHE! " Vegeta screamed back over

the loud rumbling noises behind them.

      " I don't wanna be eaten by a giant worm! " Pan wailed. Vegeta's fear triplified as he noticed Goku marching towards

the door on the opposite side of the ship.

      " KAKARROTTO WHERE THE HECK DO YOU THINK YOU'RE GOING!!! "

      " I'm going to stop it, duh! " the large saiyajin said as if it were an everyday occurance. Vegeta twitched slightly

and turned back to the controls.

      ::If I concentrate on what he's doing now I won't be able to pilot this thing to best of my ability and that could

get us all killed!:: the ouji thought to himself determindly, then hit several buttons causing the ship to warp into a faster

speed.

      Goku reached for the door and flung it open, trying his best to keep from flying out of the hatch. The giant worm

reered up over his head. It was definately not like one of the friendly blue worms they had met inside Buu. Goku shot a ki

blast at the worm who easily dodged it.

      " Ohhhhh... " he bit his lip, then shouted over his shoulder, " VEGGIE TAKE CARE OF THE SHIP I'LL BE RIGHT BACK!! "

Goku shouted and lept out of the doorway. Vegeta froze in place.

      " KAKARROTTO GET BACK HERE!!! " he snapped, then noticed Pan and Trunks running towards the door, " AND WHERE ARE YOU

TWO GOING! YOU'RE NOT GOING TO ABANDON ME TOO ARE YOU! "

      " Sorry Toussan. " Trunks laughed nervously, " But we can't let Goku-san do this alone. Who knows how many worms are

out there. "

      " And besides we need you to stay here and drive the ship so it doesn't crash! " Pan added, " You're really the only

one who knows HOW! "

      Vegeta grumbled something under his breath, " FINE! Just bring Kakarrotto back here in one piece or I'll make sure

neither of you get home that way! "

      Pan and Trunks nodded, then flew out the door. Giru looked back and forth between Vegeta and the door, then shrugged

and ran after the duo.

      Vegeta growled and quickly landed the ship nearby. The ouji shut the ship off, put the keys in his pocket and ran off

to catch up to them, " HERE I COME KAKARROTTO!! " he shouted as he blasted off into the sky and soon teleported to where Goku

and the others were only to freeze in place. One of the giant worms was looming over them, roaring.

" AH--- " he felt a lump suddenly appear in the back of his throat. Vegeta shuddered. The rest of the group were hurling

ki-blasts at the worm, " Ka--Kaka-- " he nervously tapped Goku on the shoulder.

      " Veggie! " Goku's eyes widened at the sight of the clearly freaked-out little ouji, " Veggie what are you doing

here I thought you were piloting the ship! "

      " I did! I landed it! " Vegeta shouted at him.

      " Little Veggie I KNOW you don't like big giant slimy worms why don't you just go back to the ship and I'll meet you

back ther-- "

      " I'M NOT GOING TO RUN OFF LIKE A COWARD AND LEAVE YOU HERE TO DIE! " the ouji yelled, then let out a yelp as one

of the worms rushed past him, missing Vegeta by mere inches, " ..it...almost ate me.... "

      " Veggie just stay behind me oh-kay! " Goku said, worried. He picked up Vegeta and plopped him on his back as if he

were giving the smaller saiyajin a piggyback ride. Goku went back to blasting the worms.

      The worm ducked underground and re-emerged with a dozen more popping out of the ground until they all incircled the

group, who all struck defensive positions.

      Pan twitched, becoming a little nervous herself, " Hey guys...let's calm down, okay? " she laughed uneasily at the

worms. Several of them let out roars and bared their fang-like teeth at them, the worms's teeth at the wrong sides of their

mouth.

      " ROAARRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!! " the creatures roared as they flew at the group. Giru panickly grabbed onto Trunks's

jacket as the demi-saiyajin flew up and landed a kick to one of the worms's eyeballs. His jaw hung open in shock at the fact

that the kick did absolutely nothing and instead the worm burrowed into one of the nearby walls.

      " This isn't good. "

      " AAHHHH!!! " Pan shouted, throwing ki blasts at the worms. The group continued to follow suit.

      " Kakarrotto this isn't helping! " Vegeta snapped at him, the ouji still blue in the face with horror. He built up

all his pride and slowly pulled himself off of Goku's back, then powered up to ssj2, " ERRRRR...BIG BANG ATTACK!!! " the ouji

screamed, sending the huge ball of ki flying at several of the worms and puncturing large holes in each of them, " HA! TAKE

THAT YOU FREAKS OF NATURE!! "

      Trunks smiled at his father and burst into ssj, " Wow Toussan, I'm surprised it took you this long to figure a way

out of this. "

      " What the heck are you talking about, Trunks! I had this plan in my head 10 minutes ago! If these bakayaro worms

weren't so, well, worms, then I would've done this a lot sooner! " Vegeta explained.

      " HAHA! Now THAT'S my little Veggie! " Goku chirped and went ssj3.

      Vegeta looked over at Pan who was gawking at the trio, " Aren't you going to transform too? "

      " I don't know HOW to go super saiyajin. " she said with slight annoyance.

      The ouji looked half-sorry for her, " Well Kakarrotto and I will teach you, after we destroy these things. "

      Pan perked up, " Really? "

      " Watch out. " Vegeta pointed to her. Pan blinked and looked to her right to see a worm staring her in the face.

      " WAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! " she shrieked and let loose a ki blast at it's eyeball and darted off towards the

others, " WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME THAT WAS THERE SOONER!! " she complained.

      " You didn't ask. " Vegeta shrugged it off. A vein bulged on Pan's forehead.

      " No wonder you drove Obaassan crazy. " she muttered.

      " Ronpara, Sonpara, have you found it? " Bonpara, the large blue-skinned alien who had stolen Goku and the others's

dragonball called out to his tall, thin brother Ronpara and his short, stocky, noseless brother Sonpara.

      " Not over here, para. "

      " Or here, para. "

      " KUSO! Where the heck did they hide their dragonball! " he snarled in frustration and kicked a nearby piece of

machinery into the wall. The object requisheed off of several walls before landing on the floor.

      " Bonpara! Take it easy! " Sonpara said, gawking at him.

      Bonpara grunted, still annoyed.

      " Well, we looked everywhere, so... " Ronpara trailed off.

      " So...? " Sonpara looked over at him.

      " That means one of them must be carrying it! " Ronpara yelped.

      " NO, PARA! " Sonpara wailed in horror.

      Bonpara turned the ship's telescreen on, one of the few things that worked with the absence of the ship's keys. On

the screen. An ssj3 Goku as leading one of the worms towards a wall, then bounced off it and flew straight through the worm

only to be smacked into the floor by another coming to the first one's aid. Goku fell back into ssj2 and twitched painfully.

Pan's eyes widened at the sight and flew down to help him up. Several more worms leaped at her for this and one smacked her

with it's head, slamming her into a wall.

      Trunks was already down on the ground, limp and back to normal form. Giru was hiding behind him.

      Vegeta meanwhile was still petrified enough by giant worms so that he was much more on the defensive than his usual

offensive attacks, which in this situation had happened to help the ouji and he was still standing and less beaten up than

the others; hiding out and sending out huge ki blasts whenever a worm got too close enough to be unable to dodge his attacks.

      " What should we do? They won't be able to beat the monsters. " Sonpara spoke up.

      " If they get eaten by the ooma, there's no way we'll get the dragonball out of that monster! " Ronpara gulped.

      Bonpara paled, " And we'll all be... "

      " Turned into dolls!!! " they all wailed in terror at once.

      Meanwhile, back on Planet Luude...

      " That's right everyone! BOW UNTIL IT HURTS! ALL SHALL BOW TO PLEASE OUR MASTER LORD LUUDE! " a heavyset man in a

black ninja outfit with a red headpiece on shouted down at the crowd as he stood infront of a very large fat statue of some

type of space alien.

      " Cardinal Muutchy-Mootchy! " a soldier walked up to him.

      " What is it? "

      " We have captured the rebels. These are the leaders of the rebellious Galaxy 187. " the man stepped aside to reveal

a group of dogs and cats wearing villager gear.

      The ninja-outfit wearing cardinal sweatdropped, " Ah...this is them? "

      " Yes sir! "

      " ...they're, animals. "

      " Yes sir! "

      " Animals usually bought and sold as pets; standing on their hind legs and wearing clothes. " Muutchy-Mootchy

twitched.

      " YES SIR! "

      " Uh-huh. Fine then. " he shrugged the fact off, " I'm sure lord Lude will be pleased. " he said flatly, then pushed

the frightened dog and cat people infront of the statue. Laser eyes shot forth from the statue's eyeballs and transformed the

aliens into small doll versions of themselves, then ate them.

      Muutchy-Mootchy rolled his eyes, " Sometimes I swear I joined the wrong cult. " he muttered, then pointed back to

the people below him, " WHAT DID YOU STOP FOR! NOW GET BACK TO BOWING BEFORE I END UP TURNING EVERY SINGLE CREATURE ON THIS

PLANET THAT'S NOT ME INTO A DOLL!!! "

      " Keep fighting! " Bonpara cheered the saiyajins on the video screen.

      " Don't get eaten by the Ooma! " his brother added, cheering.

      " AHHHHHHHHHH!!! " Pan shouted as she was flung again by the giant worms to the floor nearby Trunks. Goku sat up in

pain. The larger saiyajin rolled over slightly only to nearly fall into a gigantic hole. Goku yelped and backed up to see a

worm flying out of the hole. He grabbed onto it and rode it until it was in height with the others. The worm sensed the

saiyajin's presence and shook its head about wildly to see where Goku was.

      The large saiyajin grinned, " I'm right here! " Goku said in a sing-song voice. He yanked on the worm's hairs,

causing it to buck back like a horse. Goku let go and slid down in a spiral around the body of the worm until he disappeared

down the hole. He then picked up the worm from beneath and floated upward. Goku proceeded to swing the worm around like a

baseball bat, smacking it into the other worms and knocking them out until only 3 unhit worms remained. The survivers quickly

retreated back into the holes and Goku grinned happily.

      " WOW! OJICHAN THAT WAS AMAZING! " Pan cheered.

      " He's pretty good. " Sonpara said, staring at the screen.

      " Aww, it was nothing! " Goku smiled cheesily as he rubbed the back of his head, " I mean, after all it was little

Veggie's idea to power up anyway! " he said, then looked around, " Where is little Veggie? " Goku said with slight worry in

his voice, then glanced over to his right to see Vegeta still in ssj2 mode and poking one of the dead worms with a long stick

, " Veggieoh-kay? " Goku pouted.

      " I'm, just checking to make sure they're dead. " Vegeta explained, powering down along with Goku and Trunks back to

their normal forms. The ouji walked up to him, " You did a good job, Kakarrotto. "

      " Aw! I know my little Veggie would've done JUST AS GOOD if he did not have his silly lil Veggiephobia about giant

slimy worms! " Goku chirped.

      " With fangs. " Vegeta added, motioning to the worms's mouths.

      " --with fangs. " Goku agreed.

      " Bravo, bravo, bravo! " a voice came from behind them. The group turned around to see the three Para Para Bros.

      " Splendid. " Ronpara said after Sonpara.

      Bonpara clapped with them, " No one has ever beaten the Ooma before. I'm impressed! "

      Pan glared and pointed at him, " YOU! YOU'RE THE GUY WHO STOLE OUR DRAGONBALL! "

      " And you have yet another dragonball, right? " Bonpara replied.

      " Hand it over to us. " Ronpara smirked, holding out his hand.

      " WHAT?! " Trunks nearly fell over.

      " Don't be ridiculous. It's you guys who have to return the dragonball you took! " Pan yelled at them.

      Bonpara nodded thoughtfully, " Well then, there's no other choice. " he said, then struck ridiculous pose,

" BONPARA! "

      " RONPARA! " Ronpara struck a pose next to him, followed by the third brother.

      " SONPARA! "

      " And we are... " Bonpara started out.

      " The incredible Para Para Brothers! " they all announced at once.

      Pan blinked, stupified, " Para Para...Brothers...? "

      " Oh NO! It's the Ginyu Force all over again! " Vegeta groaned, slapping himself on the forehead.

      " Why does this whole trip seem like some interplanetary deja vu version of "This is Your Life"? " Goku blinked,

equally at a loss as the ouji.

      " "Ginyu Force"? " Bonpara blinked, then stepped closer to the group and narrowed his eyes at Vegeta, " WAHHHH!! " he

fell backward, " YOU'RE THE SAIYAJIN NO OUJI!!! VEGETA OUJISAMA!! " Bonpara yelped in fear, backing up.

      " AHH! HE IS! LOOK AT THE HAIR! AND THE TAIL!! " Ronpara gawked.

      Vegeta face-faulted, " Someone finally recognizes me and I'm wearing these baka earth-training clothes. " he looked

down at himself; the ouji hadn't planned on even leaving the ship today and was currently wearing the same blank tank-top and

light blue gi-ish pants he had worn to the last Budokai he saw Goku in. Luckily he had worn his white gloves; and white boots

instead of the green boots, " Oh well, you make do with what you have on. " he sighed, shrugging it off, " At least I'm not

in my pajamas. " Vegeta nodded, then put on his best evil smirk and slowly paced towards the Paras, " Well, I guess this is

your lucky day, huh? "

      " YOU EVIL LITTLE MONSTER! DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW MUCH DAMAGE YOU'VE CAUSED OUR PART OF THE GALAXY!! YOU AND YOUR

LACKIES DESTORYED OUR SISTER PLANET DECADES AGO WITHIN LESS THAN A DAY!!! DON'T YOU EVEN REMEMBER THAT!! " Bonpara shouted.

      Vegeta smirked, " With all the places I've left in ruins it's hard to remember a particular one. However, if you hand

over the dragonball right now so we can release Kakay from his curse I would be very pleased. Infact I may not even kill you.

Aw heck of course I'm gonna kill you, but I'll give you a running head-start. How does 10 seconds sound to you? " he grinned

viciously.

      " HA! If we don't bring back that other dragonball we'll suffer a fate worse than death! " Bonpara laughed, " We

don't care if we have to get through you or not! "

      " Infact we'll contribute our victory over you and your little gang as a justified revenge for what you've done! "

Ronpara grinned.

      " So just sit back and watch the show, because you're going to be a part of it! " Sonpara finished.

      The Para Bros and Vegeta stared each other down in dramatic wild-west style.

      " ... "

      " ... "

      " HAHA! KICK THEIR RUMPS, LITTLE VEGGIE!! " Goku cheered from behind him.

      " WAH! " Vegeta fell over, " KAKARROTTO WILL YOU BE QUIET! AND DON'T CALL ME "LITTLE VEGGIE" INFRONT OF PEOPLE WHO

ARE SUPPOSED TO BE FEARING ME! " he snapped.

      " And who are you? " Ronpara said, motioning to Goku.

      " I'm-- " Goku started to say cheerfully.

      " --that's Kakarrotto, my sole peasant, and he is of no importance to you. I need that dragonball, to lift a curse

from his head. " Vegeta said, narrowing his eyes at them.

      " WHAT ABOUT THE PART WITH EARTH BLOWING UP!! " Pan exclaimed. Vegeta ignored her.

      " Your only living subject left huh? " Sonpara said.

      " That must make him very important. " Bonpara smirked, all three now inspecting an embarassed-looking and uneasy

Goku.

      " Veh-GEE~~! " Goku whined, clearly uncomfortable.

      " YOU KEEP AWAY FROM HIM!!! " Vegeta teleported infront of Goku, scaring off the brothers and causing them to backup.

      " Aww, thank u little Veggie! " Goku said warmly, giving the little ouji a hug, " I'm gonna be Veggie's ~*oujo*~! "

he smiled contently.

      The paras stared in shock, then burst into laughter. Vegeta twitched, mortified. The little ouji hung his head and

slapped both his hands over his face to cover it.

      " KAKARROTTO...PLEASE refrain from letting ANY words leave your mouth until we're back on the ship! " Vegeta groaned.

      " Veggie doesn't luv me anymore? " the larger saiyajin said, hurt.

      " N--no! That's not it! " Vegeta waved his hands infront of Goku.

      " But I thought little Veggie luved me just as much as I luv him. " Goku sniffled, his body shaking.

      " Ohhhh... " Vegeta bit his lip, then took a quick glance back to make sure the brothers will still on the floor

laughing where they couldn't see him. Vegeta looked back at Goku and tightly hugged back, ::I know I'm going to regret this

within the next 5 seconds:: he grimaced, then glanced up to see Goku staring at him w/big sparkily eyes. Vegeta sweatdropped.

      " Oh Veggie.... " the larger saiyajin said in awe, " That was beautiful, little Veggie-chan! I KNEW you would never

say you did not luv me anymore! " he sobbed happily, squeezing the twitching Vegeta tightly, " You are so wonderful to me

little Veggie! "

      " Yeah...right... " Vegeta squeaked out, his face bright red. He tried with all his might to slip out of the hug and

take a deep breath, trying to cool the tempature of his head back down to normal.

      " Heh-heh-heh... " Bonpara snickered, amused, " Your oujo, Vegeta? "

      " My delusional mush-loving peasant, Para. " the ouji sneered back, " Failure to suggest anything beyond platonic

relationships between Kakarrotto and I will result in me snapping off your limbs and feeding them to any remaining worms on

this poor excuse for a planet. "

      " But your face is bright red--OOHF! " Sonpara yelped as Vegeta sent a ki-blast at him, frying him to a crisp,

" ..oww. "

      " Any more takers? " the ouji glared dangerously between Bonpara and Ronpara.

      " What'll we do now, Bonpara? " Ronpara asked.

      " Help your brother up and we'll teach the "saiyajin no ouji" a lesson... " Bonpara nodded.

      Sonpara shook the soot off himself and Ronpara got him up onto his feet again.

      Bonpara smirked at Vegeta and the group, " ...a dancing lesson. "

      Pan promptly fell over, " A DANCING lesson!!? "

      The para brothers flung their chest armor off to expose they had tiny pink tank-tops underneath and over their red

outfits. Ronpara and Sonpara set their armor down on either side of Bonpara's. The armor started blinking brightly on and off

between several different colors like a dancing floor's lights. Bonpara put his armor in the middle and pressed down on it.

Music started blasting out of the the armor that sounded more like a workout music than something you'd dance to.

      " Bon para para para bon pappa! " they sang as they bounced around doing their dance which looked like dancing

version of moves the Ginyus or even Saiyaman would perform as poses, " Bon para para para bon pappa! "

      " You know, I'm pretty sure I would've remembered destroying THIS planet. " Vegeta sweatdropped.

      " You mean little Veggie does not remember blowing up a planet with this species of people on it? " Goku said,

surprised.

      " Surprisingly, no. " Vegeta replied, then frowned, " And with my memory, if I can't remember, then there's

something very bad about this situation. "

      " Bad as in HOW? " Trunks asked, uneasy.

      " Turn right, right, left, left, and turn around and make a smile! " Bonpara gleefully clapped his hands together as

the other two paras did the moves he instructed.

      " Bad as in they're mistaking me for another saiyajin, or bad as in a humiliating memory concerning this so-called

planet I blew up that has been so embarassing that I've blocked it out of my mind. " Vegeta explained while watching the

Para closely and awaiting an ki attack from them, " If it's the latter, then I don't like this. I don't like it at all. "

      " That's their 'dance'. They look so stupid. " Pan said disgusted.

      " They COULD be using the moves to put up a ki barrier of some sort. Or maybe it unlocks their power, or initiates

some sort of special death move. I think it's wise if we just attack them now. " Vegeta whispered to the others.

      " But little Veggie we don't even know if they have the other dragonball on them! " Goku pouted, " What if we just

ask them where it is first. "

      " DON'T BE STUPID! THEN THEY'LL WANT TO KNOW WHERE OURS IS!! "

      " But we can't just attack them like this. I mean, if they don't have the dragonball then why-- "

      Vegeta ignored the rest of Goku's sentence and bent down to where Giru was, " Giru, do those dancing idiots over

there have any dragonballs on them? " he motioned over his shoulder to the para. Giru shook his head no.

      " He'd be bouncing around screaming "dragonball detected" if they had one on them anyway! " Pan complained, " Right?"

      " Bon para para para bon pappa! " they sang again.

      " Turn right, right, left, left, and turn around and make a smile! " Bonpara started clapping again.

      " What are they supposed to be doing? " Goku tilted his head, confused.

      " No idea. " Pan rolled her eyes at the sight.

      " But that dance... " Trunks trailed off.

      " Very silly. " Pan cocked an eyebrow.

      " Silly, you say? You won't be able to say such a thing much longer. Everyone, sing louder! " Bonpara instructed his

brothers.

      " Got it! " Sonpara responded.

      " Oh let's just go beat them up now! " Vegeta folded his arms, starting to get annoyed, " This is stupid to just

stand here! "

      " And raise your feet higher! " Bonpara added.

      " Yeah! " Ronpara did so.

      " Bon para para para bon pappa! "

      " Giru malfunction! Giru malfunction!! " the little robot shouted as it's arms and legs started moving about by

themselves as he hovered in mid-air.

      Trunks looked over at Giru with concern, then glared back at the Para, " What the heck are you doing to him! "

      " The electronic waves from their music must be interfering with it's circits. " Vegeta deduced, " They're trying to

stop us by destroying or dragonball radar!! "

      " Giru does not want to be destroyed! " Giru yelped.

      " Dance as we do! And turn right, and turn left, and--don't get dizzy!--and make a smile! " Bonpara continued to

sing.

      The saiyajins glanced over at Giru, who was now singing as well, " And turn right, and turn left... "

      Pan bit her lip, " GIRU SNAP OUT OF IT! " she shouted, slapping him. Giru temporarily stopped only to go right back

into dancing along, " OOOH! HOW DARE YOU JERKS DO THIS TO GIRU! BEATING HIM UP IS MY JOB!! "

      Trunks, Goku, and Vegeta sweatdropped.

      " Chibi-Onna. " Vegeta muttered, " And put your arm down already. Doesn't that baka robot get enough abuse? "

      Pan looked up at her arm and face-faulted to see she still had it held up. Pan went to pull her arm back to her side

only to have her eyes widen in the fact that she couldn't, " AHH! It won't move!!! "

      " Oh it'll move! " Ronpara grinned.

      " Just wait and see! " Sonpara continued.

      " Bon para para para bon pappa! " they sang again. Pan let out a yelp as her body spun around and started copying the

brothers's moves.

      Vegeta paled, " Or maybe it's not to destroy our dragonball radar after all. "

      " WAHHH!! OJICHAN!! " Pan shouted.

      Goku blinked at her, confused, " What's wrong?--OOF! " he let out a squeal of pain as Trunks jabbed his knee into

Goku's side, " HEY! " the large saiyajin looked over to see Trunks now moving along with the music as well and looking as

freaked out as Pan was, " Uh...WHOA! STOP THAT! " Goku cried out as his arms started moving up and down by themselves,

" VEH-GEEE~~! MAKEUMSTOP!!! " the larger saiyajin shouted up at the ceiling.

      " My arms and legs are moving by themselves! " Trunks twitched.

      " No! I don't want to dance such an embarrassing move! " Pan wailed embarassingly.

      " Looks like it's begun to catch on with them! " Bonpara beamed, then looked over to see Vegeta was still standing

still; his eyes squinched shut and his arms folded while he gritted his teeth, " Aw, what's the matter? Doesn't the fearsome

and infamous saiyajin no ouji not want to join in the fun? Well you can't hold out much longer! "

      " You'll break soon enough! " Sonpara laughed. Vegeta snorted, using every ounce of his strength just to keep his

body in place.

      " Turn right, right, left, left, and turn around and make a smile! "

      " Don't forget to smile, guys! " Ronpara pointed to his own grin.

      " VEH-GEE!! WHY WON'T YOU COME AND SAVE ME VEGGIE! " the larger saiyajin cried out over to the smaller one.

      " I..CAN'T... " Vegeta gritted his teeth, his arms starting to twitch by themselves while he kept them tightly folded

over his chest.

      " Why not little Veggie? Don'tcha luv me? " Goku sniffled as he involuntarily spun around again and started shaking

his hips to the beat along with the other spellbound saiyajins and the para brothers.

      Vegeta groaned and smacked himself on the forehead in frustration, " Of course I lu, care about you, baka! I'm trying

to block the spell by using concentrated meditation!! " Vegeta snapped, his face bright red. The little ouji froze in place

as he felt a sudden tugging on his arms, " OH CRAP!! " he let out a strangled yelp before his body succumbed to the attack

as well and the smaller saiyajin started to perform the dance with the others as well.

      " Turn right, right...AHH! Now I'm even singing! " Trunks exclaimed.

      " This is so humiliating! " Pan wailed.

      Trunks sighed sadly, " At least Goten can't see me like this! Right, right, left, left--GAHHH!!! " he sputtered.

      " Smile! Smile! " Giru chanted, his arms moving only from left to right being that he didn't have a face. And so the

group continued to dance, their hands clenched into fists as their arms moved up and down while their knees were bent

towards each other. They turned back and forth, then spun in a pirouette, and finally pointed at their cheeks with the

pointer fingers on both hands.

      " Kakarrotto, I can't believe I'm going to say this, but I miss the giant worms!!! " Vegeta groaned.

      " I am getting dizzy, Veggie! " Goku pouted as he spun around, " How are we going to get out of here! "

      " Simple, we just have to stop the spell. " Vegeta said.

      " But HOW! " the large saiyajin sobbed.

      " I DON'T KNOW! " Vegeta snapped at him. Goku's eyes instantly watered. The smaller saiyajin looked away from him,

" I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that. It's not your fault we're stuck trapped in some kind of dancing puppet curse. "

      " Yeah! It's Pilaf's! " Goku nodded, pouting stubbornly.

      " EXACTLY!......who's Pilaf? "

      " Bon para para para bon pappa! Bon para para para bon pappa! " the brothers sang.

      " And turn right...and turn left... " the saiyajins and robot sang along with them.

      " WHAT AM I DOING!! " Pan wailed, on the verge of breaking into an all-out Chi-Chish rage, " IF ONLY I COULD REACH

MY GIANT SCISSORS I WOULD KILL YOU ALL AND PUT A STOP THIS MADNESS!!! "

      " And turn right and right, a--YARG! " Vegeta tried to gain control of his voice again, " I think letting Chibi-Onna

bust out into an all-out crazed manical state wouldn't be such a bad idea at the current moment. If she's anything like

Onna Sr. she'll be able to at least scare the crap out of them--ACK!!--left, left, and turn around and smile! "

      " Hahaha! " Ronpara laughed at the ouji's expression on the word smile, " So much of a threat YOU were! "

      " You have a surprisingly well-toned, deep falsetto singing voice, saiyajin no ouji. " Sonpara snickered.

      " Hee~! " Goku beamed, proud of his little ouji's singing voice, " My little Veggie sings like an angel, dont'cha

lil Vedge'ums! " he chirped

      " HA HA, "Vedge'ums"! " Ronpara pointed at Vegeta and laughed.

      Vegeta twitched in annoyance as he and the other saiyajin and demi-saiyajin continued to dance. All of them hand

instantly gone back to singing along again.

      Bonpara continued to clap his hands. He grinned evilly, " They fell under our spell! Looks like it's about that

time. " he snickered and walked over to the group, " Hey guys, how are you doing? " Bonpara looked over at a sulking and

now slightly tired Goku, " You haven't gotten tired already, have you? You'd think being the saiyajin no oujo you'd be a

little STRONGER! " he landed a swift kick to Goku's gut, knocking the saiyajin across the room and landing on his back on

the floor, twitching.

      " Ojichan! " Pan gasped with worry.

      " Goku-san! " Trunks joined in, both still helplessly dancing.

      Bonpara glared at them, " Hey you! No talking! Just keep danci-- " he froze to see a terrifying sight before him;

an infuriated ssj2 Vegeta baring his teeth in rage in Bonpara's direction. The little ouji had been able to stop his body

but not without his arms and legs shaking ever so slightly at his sides.

      " You HIT Kakarrotto. You hit him while he was in a position in which he was unable to defend himself. And you hit

him infront of ME. " Vegeta snarled, " You kusotare, YOU DON'T DESERVE TO LIVE!!! " he clasped his fists together, ran

and leaped up at Bonpara and smacked the side of his head as if hitting a baseball. Vegeta planted a kick to his face and

flew headlong at Goku to try and reach him before the spell took ahold of the ouji's body again. Vegeta landed almost ontop

of the larger saiyajin and grasped his hands around Goku's arms to keep him from getting up, " Kakarrotto...I think we're

far enough away for their music to be unable to reach us. " Vegeta said, glancing over his shoulder while the larger

saiyajin twitched beneath him.

      " Oh Veggie.... " Goku squeaked out. Vegeta instantly turned back to him, looking confused at Goku's now glowing

bright-pink face, " ...Veggie, Chi-chan says I'm not allowed to-- "

      Vegeta face-faulted at the implication, " BAKA! I'M NOT TRYING TO BE ROMANTIC WITH YOU! I'M TRYING TO KEEP YOU SAFE

AND THINK UP A PLAN TO DEFEAT THOSE THREE BAKAYAROS AT THE SAME TIME! " he said, annoyed with his own face now bright red.

      " O. " Goku said in awe, " Little Veggie? "

      " Yes? "

      " This feels emotionally uncomfortable and kinda funny. " Goku's cheeks flushed pink again.

      " Uh.....hai! " Vegeta instantly lept off and sat next to Goku instead, looking very embarassed by now, " Baka

Kakarrotto why do you have to point out these things. " he said, avoiding Goku's gaze.

      Goku tilted his head oddly at the ouji, then back at the others just intime to see Trunks kicked.

      " TRUNKS!! " Pan exclaimed.

      Bonpara leered over her, " Oh no! She's not smiling! No one dances without smiling! " he grabbed the sides of Pan's

mouth and held them up into a smile, " Smile! 1, 2, 3, 4! Please smile, for God's sake! " Pan continued to glare at him

through the forced smile. Bonpara growled and flung her into the wall.

      " PANNY!! " Goku looked on in fear.

      Trunks got up to go help her only to have the invisible string pull his right arm up, " Oh no, I'm dancing again! "

      " And what are you two doing back here? " Bonpara smirked at the two semi-hiding saiyajins, " You're supposed to be

dancing now. Can't you hear the beat from back here? " he said, then grinned evilly, " If you're so worried about each other

how would you like to dance with each other? "

      " AHHH! " Vegeta fell over backward, practically radiating the bright red color.

      " I would love to dance all nice and sweet with my little Veggie... " Goku said w/big sparkily eyes, then quickly

turned his expression into a glare, " But not if it is YOUR crummy excuse for a dance! "

      Bonpara lifted his fingers upward, causing both saiyajins to levitate.

      " WAH! VEGGIEVEGGIE I CAN'T GET DOWN!! " Goku panicked.

      " ERRRRR, YOU!! " Vegeta screamed at Bonpara. The alien walked past both saiyajins and hopped onto his hand while

sending each of his feet kicking at both Goku and Vegeta's backs. The saiyajins went flying back across from where they

had been dancing a moment ago and the duo fell face-first into the ground at the same time.

      ::Veggie? Can you move?:: Goku asked telepathically.

      ::Yes::

      ::Veggie I'm afraid to get up off the ground...:: Goku admitted, slightly embarassed.

      Vegeta took a deep breath, ::I am too.:: " AHHHH!! " he screamed as his body instantly got back up and he started

moving his arms up and down again, " KUSO!!! "

      " Heehee, Veggie is very graceful. " Goku giggled, then felt a yelp as his body tried to get up.

      " KAKARROTTO STAY DOWN! " Vegeta snapped, " I'm NOT going to be forced to be your dancing partner as long as you're

down there! Just keep your body on the floor! "

      " What are you waiting for? " Sonpara bounced over to Goku and lifted his hands up, causing the larger saiyajin to

stand up for the most part, " Go say hello to your little friend. "

      Goku carefully walked up to Vegeta and watched him, giggling every-so-often.

      " And right and right and left and left an---STOP STANDING THERE GIGGLING AND HELP ME BAKA!! " Vegeta managed to

scream out through his singing.

      " Give it a sec-ond. " Goku said cheerfully, then watched the little ouji spin around then poke his cheeks and

smile, " Awww! That's so cute! " the large saiyajin clasped his hands together.

      " IT'S NOT CUTE NOW JUST HELP ME ALREADY!!! " Vegeta wailed.

      " Mmm, oh-kay little Veggie! " Goku smiled, grabbing Vegeta's wrists. The ouji's arm movements stopped and he let

out a sigh of relief.

      " You just had to wait to see me "smile", didn't you, Kakarrotto. " Vegeta said flatly.

      " Heeheehee, yes. " Goku grinned, " Veggie has such a nice smile! "

      " Uh-huh. " Vegeta sweatdropped, then paused to hear a tapping noise beneath them. Both saiyajin looked down to see

it was their feet, " ACK! KAKARROTTO! "

      " VEGGIE!! " Goku felt his grip on Vegeta's wrists loosening quickly. They slipped and he grabbed the ouji's hands

just before his body was about to pace backwards, " Hahaha! I win! " he cheered, " See Veggie! I did not let down--WOOP! "

Goku let out a surprise yelp as their arms began to move up and down together. Vegeta twitched in an increasing state of

mental panic, " Aww, this isn't too bad at all, huh little Veggie! " Goku chirped as their arms continued to move up and

down while the larger saiyajin was still holding the smaller one's, " It's actually pretty nice! "

      " THERE IS NOTHING NICE ABOUT THIS!!! " Vegeta screamed as he tried to pull his hands free. He loosened his waving

right hand and yanked it out of Goku's now tranced grasp and pushed the larger saiyajin away only to have his body swerve and

start spinning Goku around on his toes.

      " Veh-gee-ee-ee-ee-ee! " Goku tried to say as he spun. He suddenly froze as he felt tugged back the other, then

sent flying back the way he had come only to have Vegeta's grip suddenly loosen completely sending Goku upward and crashing

into the ceiling.

      " AHHH! " the ouji gawked at what his body had just done. It suddenly went back to dancing and shaking around in an

embarrassing manner again, " Right, right, left, left, and turn around and smile! "

      " That's what you get when you fight the music! " Bonpara said as he danced past the ouji and the spot on the ceiling

Goku had smashed into.

      " And right and right and--I'LL KILL YOU--and left and left and... " Vegeta managed to roar out from between his

singing and movements.

      " Ohhhhh... " Goku groaned as gravity started to pull him away from the Goku-shaped indent the saiyajin had made in

the ceiling, " Huh? WAHHH! " he cried out as he plummeted downward. Vegeta felt his body tugged sharply to the right and he

caught Goku right before the peasant hit the ground to make another indent. The two saiyajin blushed furiously, their noses

now touching.

      Goku broke the thick uneasy silence, " I am close enough to smell Veggie's breath, and Veggie has been eating

choco-late-chip cookies. "

      Vegeta gulped, wishing deeply that one of the worms would sprout out of the ground and swallow him whole right there,

" ...hai. I have. "

      " ... "

      " ... "

      " Veggie also smells, kinda sweaty... " Goku said as they both tried to avoid each other's glance.

      " You do too. "

      " HEY!!! " a voice shouted as an arm smacked both of them backward away from each other, " You can stare at each

other later! Now get back to dancing! And no talking! "

      " Bon para para para bon pappa! " the brothers sang. Vegeta and Goku's body's instantly got back up and started

dancing and singing along with Pan, Trunks, and Giru.

      " And turn right, and turn left... " Goku sang tiredly.

      " ...and turn around and...YARG!!! " Trunks shouted in pain as Bonpara kicked him.

      " You made a wrong turn! " the alien snapped at him, then turned to Goku and gave him a swift punch to the back,

knocking him over, " And you must raise your feet higher! " Bonpara looked around and smirked at Pan, who paled and gulped,

" How many times do I have to tell you the same thing? SMILE!! " he kicked her into across the room again. Bonpara turned to

Giru and flicked him away with his fingers, " You too! " Bonpara smirked at the ouji, " Why don't you spin for us, saiyajin

ouji. "

      " Wha--?! " Vegeta cocked an eyebrow at them, then let out a strangled yelp as he started spinning on his toes like

a top. The contents of his stomach swirling around and begging to be regurgitated back out of him. Vegeta clenched his lips

shut so he wouldn't throw up. Vegeta kept his vision locked on the alien as he spun around. His eyes widened just as he saw

Bonpara's fist come at him and smack him across the face. Vegeta backed up dizzily only to instantly start performing the

dance again. Bonpara had set his sights on Trunks again and went over to yell at him about making more wrong turns.

      " Keep on dancing! " he shouted at the others, then walked back over to his brothers and stood proudly, " So now you

know what we, the dancing Para Para Brothers, are famous for! "

      " When did you become dancing brothers anyway? " Pan asked tiredly as she kept moving her arms up and down.

      " This is such a...ridiculous power they have... " Trunks groaned, his eyelids feeling heavy.

      " But it's very...effective... " Goku murmured, looking beat.

      " Keep going, everyone. " Bonpara teased, then turned over his shoulder, " Ronpara, Ronpara! Let's finish this off! "

      " Alright! " they said in unison.

      " Tempo faster! Rhythm faster! 1, 2, 3, 4! " Bonpara clapped his hands as the music sped up along with the speed at

which the saiyajins and robot were dancing, "  Bon para para para bon pappa! Right, right, left, left, and turn around and

smile! Right, right, left left, and turn around and smile! C'mon, faster! "

      " GIRUGIRUGIRUGIRUGIRUGIRUGIRU---*BOOM*!! " Giru's brain exploded in flames and the robot fell to the ground.

      " Giru! " Trunks gasped.

      " STOP DROP AND ROLL, GIRU!! " Goku shouted over to him as the little robot tried in a frenzy to put the fire to his

head out.

      " Giru broken. Broken. Broken. " Giru's arm twitched repeatedly as his voice-chip skipped like a broken record.

      " You're going to make us perform this humiliating dance until our bodies break down and we DIE!!! " Vegeta gawked as

it hit him.

      " He's very observant. " Ronpara snickered.

      " AGAIN! " Bonpara shouted.

      " Bon para para para bon pappa! "

      " Andrightandrightandleftandleftandturnaroundandsmile! " the remaining captives sang.

      " OhhhHHhhhhh... " Pan felt her head getting light as if she were going to faint from exhaustion.

      " Hmmph, " Vegeta snorted, then grinned wryly at them, " I STILL don't get what you bakayaros see in this stupid

dance. "

      " STUPID!!! " Bonpara shouted, making Vegeta move faster while the other three slowed down a bit.

      " Hai! The feet practically don't even move at all! This is nothing more than simply shaking your arms in random

directions. " the ouji smirked.

      " WHY YOU-- "

      " --you know, if you were to temporarily relinquish your power over me, I'll show all of you what a real dance is. "

Vegeta boasted.

      " Will little Veggie dance with me~! " Goku said eagerly.

      " And Kakay too. " Vegeta smirked.

      Goku grinned, " EEE~~! "

      Bonpara thought for a moment, then smiled. Vegeta stared at him suspiciously then suddenly felt something bump up

against him from behind. The little ouji freaked out and looked back to see Goku grinning at him over his shoulder.

      " Sorry Veggie! "

      " AHHH! THAT WAS YOUR BUTT I JUST BUMPED AGAINST, WASN'T IT!! " the smaller saiyajin reared in disgust, " Your

large stinky smelly kaka-tush!!! "

      " Heehee. " Goku beamed, " Umm, hey Mr. Para? "

      " Yes? " all three brothers said at once.

      " Can I make little Veggie dance? " the large saiyajin grinned eagerly.

      " With that idea, I don't see why not. " Bonpara smirked, looking over at an already paling Vegeta. Bonpara raised

his hand towards Goku and the larger saiyajin instantly stopped dancing. Goku checked his motor skills for a second, opening

and closing his hands and moving his feet around.

      " AH! I am in charge of my body a-gain! " he beamed, then zipped over infront of Vegeta and smiled coyly, " Hiiiiii,

Veh-gee~! "

      " Kakarrotto. " Vegeta nodded uneasily.

      " Hmm, now what should I start with...hmm... " Goku rubbed his chin as if deep in thought, " AH! Let's try this! "

he said happily and kicked his foot out as if attacking some invisible opponent. Vegeta yelped as his own foot kicked out as

well and his arm movements stopped, " Haha! " Goku laughed and put his foot down while clapping his hands. Vegeta

sweatdropped at his own. The larger saiyajin then sent out a flurry of punches, which, due to the spell on the ouji, caused

Vegeta to incidentally block every punch with one of his own.

      " Kakarrotto, what are you planning to accomplish with this. " Vegeta said with a semi-large vein bulging on his

forehead.

      " I dunno, I just thought it'd be fun! " Goku chirped, still punching away, " Shake your hips with me little Veggie!"

he exclaimed, doing so himself while moving his arms a little bit. The smaller saiyajin mirrored him, " See! Dancing with

Veggie is much better this way! "

      " You don't even know HOW to dance! " Vegeta sweatdropped.

      " I KNOW! " Goku grinned.

      " Baka. "

      " HEY!!! " Goku stopped for a moment as the grin on his face widened. He bent down to Vegeta's height and smiled

sneakily, " Veggie say "~*I wuv u Kakay*~". " the larger saiyajin giggled.

      Vegeta tried to close his mouth so the words came out sort of mumbled, " I wuv u Kakay. "

      " EEEE~~~ YAY! " Goku cheered, " This is FUN!! "

      " Hello! Ojichan! We're still over here, DANCING!! " Pan shouted, trying to get Goku's attention.

      " Oh man, he's not gonna even notice us to come help until he's done playing with Toussan over there. " Trunks

groaned.

      " SHUTTUP! GO FASTER! " Bonpara shouted at them.

      Meanwhile, back where Goku and Vegeta were.

      " Pattycake, pattycake, baker's man! Bake a cake as fast as you can! Roll it, and pat it, and mark with with a V, and

put it in the oven for Veggie and me! " Goku sang as he sat on the floor with the ouji while playing a clapping game with

him, " This is FUN! " he exclaimed again.

      " This is worse than that baka para dance. " Vegeta sweatdropped.

      " Veggie get up now! " Goku said happily as they both stood up, " Now Veggie curtsy for me! " he clasped his hands

together.

      " CURTSY!! THAT'S A GIRL TYPE OF BOWING! AND I WILL NOT BOW BEFORE YOU!!! CURTSY OR REGULAR BOW OR NOT! " Vegeta

snapped.

      " Heehee. " the larger saiyajin beamed and curtsyed himself, causing the ouji to do so as well, " Veggiesosilly! "

      " You know, you curtsy suspiciously well for being Kakarrotto. " Vegeta said, suspicious. Goku's face turned bright

pink.

      " Ah, hahaha, th--thank you Veggie. " Goku laughed, embarassed.

      " That was a comment, not a compliment. " Vegeta folded his arms.

      " ...? " Goku tilted his head as if he didn't understand, then smiled warmly, " Come 'ere little Veggie! " he bent

down and wiggled his fingers anxiously as if expecting a hug. Vegeta's eyes widened to the size of saucers.

      " NO. " he said bluntly, frightened.

      " Please~! "

      " NO. NO NO NO. " the ouji backed up.

      " Peeeeeeeease~~~ Veggie-tahhh! " the larger saiyajin said in a baby voice.

      Vegeta clenched his fists and held them at his side to prevent them from moving.

      " Just take a few tiny Veggie-boot-sized steps, little buddy. "

      The little ouji tensed up as his feet moved forward several steps to mirror Goku's walking, " Kakarrotto, stop it! "

      " But I just want a hug. " the larger saiyajin pouted.

      " I KNOW THAT AND I DON'T WANT TO GIVE YOU A HUG!!! " Vegeta snapped.

      " Aww, cut it out little Veggie! You know you do! " Goku grinned, taking two more steps. Vegeta twitched, becoming

increasingly uncomfortable. His own arms being held outward now towards the other saiyajin. Goku stepped a little bit closer

until he was toe-to-toe with the ouji, then to Vegeta's relief, put his arms back down at his sides. Vegeta sighed and

relaxed his body only to bolt to attention an instant later at a loud, high-pitched warcry.

      " YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!! " a blur of light blue and yellow launched

itself at Vegeta.

      " *OOF*! " Vegeta squeaked out. The moment had passed by too fast for his brain to correctly register what it was.

He blinked to find himself now being hugged tightly and, thanks to the spell, hugging tightly back a big warm mushy lump.

The ouji's face turned bright red at the recognition of the lump, " Oh dear God.... "

      " Heeheehee~ " Goku giggled happily as he squeezed tighter, causing Vegeta to do so as well, " Hugs feel even BETTER

when Veggie hugs BACK! "

      " I'M NOT DOING IT ON PURPOSE!! " Vegeta protested, trying to pull his arms free.

      " OJICHAN!!! " a voice cried out from behind them.

      " Ah! " Vegeta's face lit up, " Saved by the yell. " he stated dryly, then looked back up at Goku, who looked

somewhere between contentness and sleep, " Hey Kakarrotto, don't you think it's about time we go save Kaka-girl & Trunks? "

      " Oh Veggie~~ Veggie I broke one of Chi-chan's rules... " the larger saiyajin whispered.

      " What? "

      " I should not be hugging Veggie for this long this close this of a length at one time...I broke a rule Veggie... "

      " Bon para para para-- "

      " *rumble* "

      Vegeta's ears perked up slightly at the backround noise.

      " I broke one of Chi-chan's rules...and, I don't feel bad at all... " a little smile started to curl upward on Goku's

face. Vegeta's eyes widened in confusion.

      " -bon pappa! "

      " *RUMBLE* "

      " ...I feel GREAT! " the large saiyajin squealed, " Oh man! I feel so spontanious little Veggie! Like--like I wanna

do something crazy and meaningless like I used to do in my spare time before I met Chi-chan at that tournament. Infact, I'm

gonna go drink down all the rest of that lady's liquor from Zunama's planet and then run around the ship buck naked!! "

      " WHAT?! KAKARROTTO THAT'S INSANE! " Vegeta shouted, trying to pull himself out of the hug.

      " Or maybe, maybe I'll break another "Veggie" rule... " Goku grinned down at the little ouji. Vegeta froze in place.

      " Suddenly you breaking Onna's "drinking" law and the running around; as long as you have your boxers on; the ship

doesn't sound like such a bad idea. " the ouji laughed nervously.

      " Turn right, and turn left, and turn around and make a... "

      " *RUMBLE*RUMBLE*RUMBLE* "

      " ROAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!! " an enraged noise came from below the group as one of the remaining giant worms

burst through the floor and flew past a terrified yet still dancing Trunks and Pan. Sonpara and Ronpara cried out in fear and

ran off while Bonpara had his back to the worm as he continued to sing. He turned around.

      " ..smile! " Bonpara smiled only to freeze in terror at the worm before him, " YAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! " he screamed in

horror as the music coming from the brothers's armor suddenly stopped.

      Pan and Trunks sighed in relief as they gained control of their bodies again. Pan sent a death glare at the already

frightened Bonpara. She pulled out her gigantic scissors and ran at him screaming, then used the scissors like a bat to

smack him into the ceiling while Trunks took care of the worm. Vegeta felt his own body regain control of itself and the

ouji annoyedly pushed Goku away, then flew off at the paras, " AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGG-- " the ouji

screamed, then paused and teleported back to Goku, " And don't you DARE ever try to do that sort of thing to me AGAIN!! "

he said, then went back to where he had been flying, " AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGG!!! "

      Goku sweatdropped. He, Trunks, and Giru watched as Pan and Vegeta beat the living daylights out of the para para

brothers. Goku down at Trunks, " You think maybe we should help-- "

      " --NO. They deserve every second of this. " Trunks said flatly, aiming his own glare at the paras.

      " Oww.. " Bonpara groaned in pain as he and his brothers sat tied up together againt a tree-trunk-like object.

      " Ha! Serves you right. Imposing such a silly dance on a lady? What were you thinking!? " Pan ranted in her Chi-Chi

anger-management tone of voice.

      " Giru Giru Giru! " the little robot ran up to them.

      " So? Did you find anything on their ship? " Vegeta asked, sitting indian-style on the floor.

      " No dragonball detected. Giru sorry. " Giru sadly shook his head. Vegeta sighed heavily.

      " Figures, we finally beat these idiots and they don't even have the other dragonball. "

      " Hey Veggie-san? Where's Trunks? " Pan asked curiously.

      " Oh he's back in the ship, probably giving Kakarrotto some potato chips or cheeze doodles or some type of snackfood

to temporarily keep him quiet. " Vegeta rambled off.

      " *connecting, connecting, connecting*. "

      " Oh please pick up! PLEASE! " Trunks begged his satelite communication system. He perked up when the screen on the

monitor suddenly brightened up with an image, " HAHA! SUCCESS!! " Trunks punched his fist in the air, " GOTEN! Goten are

you there? "

      " Why hello Trunks! " a blue plushie object appeared infront of the camera.

      " AHH! " Trunks fell over.

      " Oh is he oh-kay? It sounds like he just got hurt. " Parisu asked, surprised.

      " Trunks looks alright, how ya feeling Trunks! " Goten said happily.

      " Just peachy. " Trunks said flatly, still in a painful position on the floor.

      " HeyTrunksguesswhereIam!! " Goten grinned near-psychotically.

      Trunks's eyes widened, the demi-saiyajin still on the floor, " Dear God, I recognize that tone of your voice...Goten

you're sober!! " he beamed, getting up.

      " But I never drank in the first place. " Goten tilted his head.

      " I DON'T MEAN SOBER FROM ALCOHOL! I MEAN SOBER FROM HAVING THAT STUPID CELLPHONE GLUED TO YOUR HEAD!! " Trunks

snapped.

      " Oh, we're handing in our cellphones. " Parisu chirped.

      " You ARE! " Trunks grinned.

      " Yeah! We're getting new ones!! " Goten added. Trunks fell over again.

      " Ugh... "

      " SoguesswhereIam!! "

      Trunks sighed sadly and sat up, " Where Goten? Where are you? "

      " TELE-LAND!!! " he waved his arms in the air excitedly, then held up his plushie, " See! It's a stuffed toy shaped

just like the park's mascot! Tim Telephone! "

      " Aren't they CUTE! " Parisu held her bright red one up, " You get them for free when you turn in your old phones! "

      " We're getting our new ones at the gift shop! " Goten chimed in, " And just look at all the rides! " he backed away

from the camera to reveal a gigantic telephone-themed theme park. Trunks's jaw dropped to the floor.

      " Come on kids, let's have some fun! " a worker dressed up as the theme-park mascot motioned the couple through the

front gates.

      " GOTEN NO!! " Trunks screamed, waving his arms around in a frenzy, " DON'T GO INTO THE LIGHT!! "

      " Bye Trunks, b'bye! " the younger demi-saiyajin waved back, unaware of the Trunks's main reason for waving to him.

      " GOTEN!! "

      " Don't worry Trunks, we'll bring you back something from the gift shop! " Goten grinned, turned to follow Parisu

inside.

      " NO! NO!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooo!!!! " Trunks wailed,

then thunked his head on the control panel and slid to the floor in shock, now foaming at the mouth.

      " Lalala, lalalala! " Goku sang as he walked into the room in his boxers with the bottle of liquor from Zunama's

planet in his hand. He cocked an eyebrow at the foaming Trunks, " What happened to you? " Goku looked up and oohed at the

screen, " OOH! Carnival! " he bent down to where Trunks had fallen, " What is so bad a-bout a carnival, Trunks? "

      " I've just lost my bestfriend/sidekick and my bestfriend/sidekick's girlfriend to the addictive substance known as

the cell phone, FOREVER!! " Trunks wailed.

      " Hahaha, you know what's funny? Mirai Trunks was fighting an actual villain CALLED Cell so he could save HIS

bestfriend, and you're fighting a 'cell' PHONE to save yours! Haha, parallel universe! " Goku got up, " So! Wanna have some

liquor? "

      " NO. "

      " Oh, oh-kay. I'll just go ask Veggie then. " Goku said, leaving the room. He paused and poked his head around the

corner, " You know Trunks, Mirai Trunks used a sword to attack Cell. " he offered, then left.

      Trunks sat up, " A sword...? " an image came to his mind of himself holding a huge sword and slicing a gigantic

cellphone in two. Goten and Parisu cheering him on, " That's not a bad idea at all... "

      " Wow! You guys have a big ship! " Pan said in awe as she poked her head inside the door to the Para brothers

spaceship.

      " Do you really have to go in there? " Bonpara sweatdropped.

      " You already checked for the dragonball. " Ronpara added.

      " Oh GIRU checked for the dragonball. And just because he couldn't detect it doesn't completely mean it's not here! "

she said, walking inside, " Come on Giru! "

      " Warning. Danger! Pan is using excuse to pass the time, but passing time this way could cause 80% levels of DANGER."

Giru stated. Pan bopped him over the head and chucked him inside the ship. The rest of the group outside sweatdropped.

      " Heh-heh-heh, " Vegeta chuckled to himself, leaning against a rock and playing a gameboy game with himself as the

character he was playing. The ouji snickered as he blasted away another wolf-bear-ish looking creature in the virtual forest

outside West City, " Bakas. "

      " WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! Heeheeheee~! " a half-drunken giggle came from the hatch to the

saiyajins' own ship. Vegeta froze inplace and looked over to see Goku leaning against the ship in his boxers with one of his

gi shirts tied around his neck like a cape and another, smaller pair of boxers on his head like a hat, " Hiiiiiiiiiii*hic*,

Veh-gee! " he waved goofishly, waving the bottle of liquor in the air. Vegeta paled, " Veggie come haf a driiink with meeee!"

Goku grinned, slurring out the words sloppily. Vegeta quickly turned back to his gameboy and pretended he didn't notice Goku

to begin with. The large saiyajin pouted, " Aww, watsa matter Veh-gee, you scared'a havin a drink with me around? " he

waddled over to Vegeta and held the bottle out towards the ouji's face, " Peeeease? It'll make me so happy. And Veggie lufs

to make his lil princess happy. "

      " YOU'RE NOT MY PRINCESS! " Vegeta snapped, then, turned himself so his back was facing Goku. Goku smiled and tilted

his head gleefully to the right, then started pouring some of the liquid into his left ear, " AARG!! " Vegeta let out a yelp

as he felt a sudden temporary drunk warmth spread throughout the right side of his head. He looked over at Goku and snagged

the bottle away from him, " CUT THAT OUT! "

      " But I luv u, Veggie-tah. " Goku pouted and hugged the little ouji from behind, " I luv Veggie more than anybody

else in'a world *hic*! "

      " WAHH! NO YOU DON'T! NO YOU DON'T!! YOUR BRAIN IS MIXED UP DUE TO YOUR DRUNKEN STUPIDITY!! " Vegeta exclaimed, his

face gone bright red. The paras were snickering at him.

      " Aww Veh-geeeeee-chaaaaan, nopa la sashe poporina se tu~~ " the larger saiyajin cuddled closer.

      Vegeta stared at him over his shoulder, disturbed, " Did you just propose to me in saiyago? HOW WOULD YOU EVEN KNOW

HOW TO FLUENTLY SPEAK SAIYAGO!! " he exclaimed.

      " *hic*! The proof of purchase is in the pudding, little Veggie, *hic*! " Goku grinned cheesily.

      Vegeta twitched, his face still bright red from the large warm blob heating up Vegeta's back with body heat, " HEY

KAKA-GIRL! ARE YOU FINISHED IN THERE YET!!! "

      " Hm? Almost! " Pan called back to him.

      " WELL HURRY! KAKARROTTO'S GOTTEN DRUNK OFF THAT JUICE THOSE BAKAS FROM THE LAST PLANET GAVE US AND NOW HE'S BEING

EVEN MORE EMBARASSING THAN NORM--oh my GOD, get your hand off my THIGH!! " the ouji squeaked out with embarassment, " WHERE'S

ALL THOSE STUPID KAKA-INHIBITIONS OF YOURS WHEN I NEED THEM!! "

      " Here! " Goku chirped, leaning Vegeta's head back and plunking the liquor bottle into the ouji's mouth causing the

liquid to pour inside it. Vegeta's eyes widened as he struggled to push it and Goku off him.

      " MMPHMMPH!! "

      " Danger danger danger! " Giru said as he watched them two saiyajins from through a window in the ship.

      " Crap. I guess they don't have it in here after all. " Pan sighed, then smirked, and pulled out her giant scissors,

" Looks like we're gonna have to force it out of them after all, Giru! "

      " DANGER! " Giru hopped off the ledge and dashed over to the other side of the room.

      " *beep*beep* *beep*beep* " a machine nearby Pan beeped. She looked over at what appeared to be a built-in calculator

baring foreign letters instead of numbers.

      " Hey Giru? Can you read this? " she called the robot over to her while leaning against her scissors.

      Giru floated over to Pan and peered down at the figures, " Destination Planet Lude. " he said, " It's there. Go

there! "

      " Yes sir. " the computer responded.

      Pan gawked at Giru, " Did that thing just call you "SIR"?! "

      " Destination Planet Lude. Starting engines! " the computer responded as the ship started to lift off.

      " WAHHH!! "STARTING ENGINES"!? NO NO NO! WAIT! STOP!! " she screamed, running over to the hatch only to have it close

and the ship launch upward, " Oh no...not again. " Pan paled as she looked out the window to see space. She sent a

death-glare at Giru, " Why you double-crossing little toaster-oven! WAIT'LL I GET MY HANDS ON YOU!! " she held her scissors

above her head and started chasing Giru around in a circle.

      " DANGER DANGER DANGER!! " Giru flailed his about in fright.

      " OOOH I'LL SHOW YOU REAL DANGER YOU GET BACK HERE YOU TALKING GARBAGE DISPOSAL!!! "

      " Our ship. "

      " It's gone. "

      " For good. " the para brothers stared helpessly as their ship flew off without them.

      " Huh?! " Trunks ran out of the saiyajin's ship just intime to see the other ship fly off, " Wha, but you're over-- "

he looked at the brothers with confusion.

      " It was your younger sister. "

      " Snooping around in our ship. "

      " She and the robot took off in it. "

      Trunks sweatdropped, " Pan's not my sister, my sister's back home. " he said, then pulled a double-take, " WHADDA YOU

MEAN PAN TOOK OFF IN THE SPACESHIP!!!! "

      " HeeheehahaHA, deja vu! " a little giggle came from behind him. Trunks turned around to see Goku and Vegeta drunk

silly.

      " You're such a baka, Kakarrrrrrrrrot-to. " Vegeta laughed with him, sitting on Goku's lap and sloshing around the

bottle with the remaining few drops of liquor while Goku played with Vegeta's hair, hiccuping every so often.

      Trunks twitched, " I leave all you guys for FIVE MINUTES and THIS is what happens?! "

      " Aww, relax Trunks! You're such a panicky-pimple. " Goku brushed him off while rubbing Vegeta's hair in his fingers.

Vegeta started to play music on the liquor bottle by blowing just far enough away to produce a conch-like sound.

      " Bwahaha, riiiiiiiicola! *hic*. I hate throat-drops. They taste too much like, *hic* medicine. "

      Trunks groaned, " Goku-san, I think you mean worry-wart, not "panicky-pimple". "

      " Ah, it's a new phrase then. I'm an invent-tor! " Goku grinned, pumping his fist in the air.

      " UGH! Come on guys we gotta get back to the ship and go after Pan! We don't even know where she's headed! And she

has Giru with her and we need him to be able to find the dragonballs! " Trunks said.

      The para brothers got up and started to slink away, despite the fact that they were all tied together.

      " YOU THREE TOO! NOW GET IN THERE! " Trunks barked. The paras gulped and quickly ran inside the ship, followed by

Trunks. Trunks stuck his head back outside the hatch, " GOKU-SAN! TOUSSAN! PAN'S THE ONLY ONE ON THAT SHIP! SHE NEEDS OUR

HELP! HURRY UP! "

      The two saiyajins looked at each other, then tried to stand up only to wobble off in different directions and fall

over again.

      " AAUGH! " Trunks slapped himself on the forehead, then grabbed Goku and Vegeta by the collars and dragged them back

inside the ship.

      " Hahaha, curse you Kakarrotto, *OOF* haha, oww. " Vegeta laughed as they were were pulled across the ground, " Hey!

Watch where you're going, you, whoever you are. "

      " Yeah, this is no way to treat an oujo. " Goku nodded, pointing to himself. Then burst into laughter along with

Vegeta, " Haha, *hic* smooch me Veggie! "

      " *hic* Gladly! "

      " *BOP*! " both saiyajins yelped as they felt a fist smack both of them overtop the head.

      " Aw, no you don't! " Trunks muttered, " Cuz if I let you once you guys do that while drunk the entire UNIVERSE is

going to fall apart and I'm not taking responsiblity for it! "

      " Man, Trunks, *hic* you're such a meanie. " Goku pouted.

      " Yeah, *hic* you're no fun! "

      " I'm locking you both in seperate rooms and you're not coming out until you're both having hangovers. " Trunks

grumbled, doing so. He walked up to the pilot's seat and sat down in it determindly, " Alright everybody! Let's go! "

THE END (sort of)

Chuquita: The "sort of" meaning the mini-chapter after this one.

Goku: Ah.

Vegeta: (flatly) You had to end it with me drunk, huh?

Chuquita: Aww, don't worry Veggie! Besides the story won't completely end if at a later time I decide to add another chapter

to this by parodying an even later ep. There's always the one w/Goggie, or the one where Goku's on that gameboard and has his

worst non-fatal nightmare--

Vegeta: (smirks) --which happens to feature Onna in a nurse's uniform telling Kakay what a horrible person he is and then she

sticks the needle into his butt-cheek.

Goku: (looks away) (little voice) That was a very tramatizing dream. I do not feel very comfortable with Veggie re-telling it

Vegeta: It WASN'T just a dream! She actually DID IT to you in that episode!

Goku: (little voice) I know.

Chuquita: Aw, will you let him go Vedge?

Vegeta: I'm not saying it to make Kakarrotto feel bad! I'm saying it because I wasn't in the dream. (grins) Therefore,

Kakay's subconsious views Onna as evil while viewing me as a non-threat.

Goku: (chirps) I like my Veggie, Chu-sama!

Chuquita: That you do :) (to audiance) If you have any gt episode you think'd be great to follow these eps I may add another

chapter eventually to it after the mini one. (to Veggie) I think they really over-used the worms in the first part of the

episode. It just seemed to drag on.

Goku: Heehee, dragon.

Vegeta: (grumbles) I could've blasted all those giant slimy worm-like creatures away if I wanted to..and if they weren't

giant slimy worm-like creatures....

Goku: (happily) And now for the reviewer replies! :)

To Rissa of the Saiya-Jin: Hee~ Veggie defended his peasant again in this chapter too! Heh, Pan isn't totally convinced one

way or the other about them yet. She's just suspicious at the moment. In the episode, Zunama did smack Trunks into the wall

and Pan was the one who flew out to try and help him; not in nearly as much a dramatic-like attack the way Veggie did, but

something similar. Hope you liked the dancing thing. I wish we pictures in the fics cuz it's such a funny dance to watch.

To Callimogua: lol! Veggie's especially more protective in this fic because this happens 4 to 6 years after my current fics's

timeline. Everyone's getting closer to that "100 years in the future" mark already :)

To Girl-with-too-many-aliasses: Heh, don't feel bad, I had no idea you could change the voices either til I read it about a

week ago (& I've had my budokai game since March). I wish the U.S. ones did have the voice change mode though too. Goku's

japanese voice is so funny! And Veggie's sounds so royalistic. :) Haha, poor Raditsu; I wonder if they actually show the

characters doing the fusion dance w/each other or just use the portaras. Maybe you can buy both forms?

To Tomoyo chan1: I can't wait to work on my mini-chapter. I'm really trying to get this part out for today (friday) so don't

be surprised if it's posted later in the day than usual. (I wanna put the mini-chapter up Monday). Veggie's gonna have to go

through quite a few embarassing moments. They have to hem the dress to fit him, and Goku gets to help with Veggie's makeover!

And Veggie has to wear makeup! I did add in another scene w/Goten & the phone. You know I've actually gotten enough ideas for

the phone thing to make a one-shot for it like I do w/my Piccolo fics. I may write one. Infact I've actually gotten it all

figured out how both Goten and Parisu are convinced to give up the cellphone addiction.

To RyukoVulpix: Wanna know something ironic? Ouji was the dbz manga "kanji of the month" in this month's Shounen Jump. I'm

using it as my quote of the week for the mini-chapter so you can read it there. The manga spelled it Oji, but I like having

the u in there so much better. I can also understand why Pan uses Ojichan instead of Ojisan; 1) Because she's really close

with her grandpa and called him that when she was a chibi also. And 2) In gt Pan's not really that big on using respectful

titles to those around her. In episode 3 she drives Trunks nuts because she's calling him Trunks-kun instead of using san or

sama like he's used to all those business people calling him.

To TheFireV: Heehee, the gt Veggie hitting himself on the head is on my computer, but I can send you a copy of it if you

want. I could probably e-mail it after I finish uploading this chapter. For those who I'm gonna send the Doublemint comics

to, I'm scanning those over the weekend so I'll e-mail them on Monday when I hopefully get the mini-chapter up!

To Miyanon: Hee, I knew there was a reason I had Goku keep the liquor bottle :D Son-kun acts just the opposite of Veggie when

he's embarassed. Veggie explodes and Goku just acts kinda shy about it since he isn't used to it. (like w/the makeover thing

last chapter) And he got Veggie drunk too so even Veggie couldn't escape the latest embarassment. But Mirai did lock them in

seperate rooms so that should be enough to keep them from further embarassing themselves. Don't worry about the GT eps!

They're set to premire sometime in September or October. I'm looking forward to hearing how it sounds!

Chuquita: (smiles) And that's about the end of part 4! Oh! I finally got a membership at deviantart so now I have a new place

to upload my doodles! (I used to use mediaminer till their server had all those problems). I only have 4 doodles up so far

though. And I made an avatar! :D It's at chuquita.deviantart.com. (to Veggie) We get our name in the url.

Goku: (happily) Kinda like that thing ff.net did here just recently!

Chuquita: (nods) Mm-hm! (to audiance) And now I'm up to upload this chapter! I hope you all enjoyed it! (waves) Bye!

Vegeta: Bye.

Goku: Arrivaderchi!

Vegeta: (sighs) It's "arrivederci", Kakarrotto.

Goku: I didn't know you could speak italian, Veggie?

Vegeta: (sweatdrops) I can't, baka.

Goku: Oh.

Vegeta: ...

Goku: ...

Vegeta: ...

Goku: (chirps) (waves to audiance) Bye then!!

Vegeta: *sigh*!
