Quote of the Week: -dbz graphic novel #4
Veggie: Too bad you don't have a tail, TRAITOR!
Chuey's Corner:
Goku: (grinning) I do NOW.
Chuquita: Heh-heh, I was looking at that book and Veggie's tail is 3/4th as tall as he is!
Vegeta: (nods) There's nothing wrong with that.
Goku: (giggling) (grabs Veggie's tail and holds it up) That's kinda funny Veggie, your tail is regular saiyajin size while
your little Veggie-body is not!
Chuquita: What's weird is GT Veggie's tail IS proportional to his body, but Z Veggie's much more fun with his this way!
Goku: Yeah! You could jump rope with it Veggie!
Vegeta: (sweatdrops) (pulls his tail back out of Goku's grip) Hmmph! A saiyajin tail as strong as mine can be used not only
for it's traditional and obvious reasons, but in addition can be used like a third arm. (gets up and wraps his tail around
his chair, then pulls it up into the air using the tail)
Goku: OOH! Me next me next!! (waving his arms in the air)
Vegeta: I CAN'T USE YOU, YOU'RE TOO HEAVY, BAKA! (sits down) Besides there's no way I'm letting those kaka-germs of yours
enwrap my tail with mind-numbing kaka-juices! (snorts)
Goku: (blinks) "Kaka-juices"? (tilts his head)
Chuquita: Anyway, today's fic is about these interesting furry saiyajin appendages and the idea that they have a mind of
their own!
Goku: (happily) And the trouble they cause poor little Veggie!
Chuquita: (grins) We even went through the trouble give them nicknames, sorta.
Vegeta: (flatly) (whlie holding his tail tightly against himself) My tail has a NAME now?
Chuquita: Well, no. Actually I just needed to think up two nicknames for the tails to call each other since they don't really
have actual names..you know, since they're appendages. That and I can't have them calling one another "Kakarrotto's Tail" or
"Veggie's Tail". SO! I looked up some japanese counterpart names to some english words and I came up with "bibishii", which
means "beauitful"; for Son-kun's--
Goku: HEE~~ my tail is bee-yuuu-ti-ful, Veggie!
Vegeta: No it's not, it's big and fluffy-furred and covered in kaka-germs!
Chuquita: --and for Veggie's tail I found the word "nango", which has two meanings. One of which is "sweet nothings" and the
other meaning is "baby babble: i.e. goo-goo, ga-ga".
Vegeta: (falls over) WHAT?!
Goku: (laughing) Hahahahahahaha! Little Veggie's tail's nickname's named after mushy-talk!
Vegeta: (fuming) OOOOOH....AT LEAST "NANGO" SOUNDS LIKE A MALE NAME!!
Goku: (tilts his head, confused) What is wrong with bibishii?
Vegeta: IT SOUNDS, WELL--
Goku: (chrips) --OUJO--EEE! (blinks) Or Oujo-ish. (thinks) Oujo-ian?
Vegeta: (flatly) Exactly.
Goku: (grins) Does this mean my tail gets to be an honorary oujo too, little Veggie?
Goku's Tail: (hugs Veggie's arm)
Vegeta: (twitches) (looks up at Goku)
Goku: (smiling warmly)
Vegeta: (face turns bright red) I--ah...WHAT AM I THINKING!! YOU'RE NOT EVEN MY OUJO TO BEGIN WITH AND YOU'RE NOT GOING TO BE
MY OUJO EVER! AND THAT GOES FOR YOUR FURRY PEASANT APPENDAGE AS WELL!!
Goku's Tail: (pouts, lets go of Veggie's arm sadly)
Goku: (pats his tail) Aww, don't worry Beautiful, Veggie's just lying to protect the large emotional pool of confusion,
denial, and sweet mushy-type emotions to keep himself from getting hurt by me which of course would never happen because I
would never emotionally hurt Veggie but that's another baffling fathom of Veggie-feelings to begin with!
Goku's tail: (smiles and wraps around Goku's waist contently)
Goku: Aww, there ya go! (rubs his tail happily)
Vegeta: (staring at him, disturbed) Where the heck did you get all THAT intellectual-sounding information from!!
Goku: (thinks hard) I..don't...know...
Vegeta: UGH! (smacks his hand over his forehead) Baka.
Vegeta's Tail: (sweatdrops)
Goku: (bends over to Veggie's tail) HELLO!
Vegeta's Tail: (freaks out, hair standing on end and zips behind Vegeta)
Goku: (pouts) Aw, poor little guy. I didn't mean to scare it.
Vegeta: (flatly) You did more than scare it.
Goku: (reaches over and starts petting Veggie's tail)
Vegeta's Tail: (calms down and starts to purr)
Goku: Awwwwwww, u like me too, huh! (smiles happily)
Vegeta: (eyes bulging out of their sockets in shock and confusion) (yanks his tail away) STOP THAT!!!
Goku: (blinks) ?
Chuquita: Here's part 1, everybody!
Summary: As if Veggie's life wasn't complicated already? Thanks to the large amount of time they've seen each other,
Veggie and Son-kun's furry saiyajin tails fall for each other unbeknownst to their owners. How will Veggie be able to stop
his own tail's strange urges without seriously digging himself into a deeper hole?
Chuquita: Remember! All the stuff that happened in the lil GT fic I wrote before this hasn't happened yet since it took place
4 to 6 years in the future from the present timeline!
*****************************************************************************************************************************
" WOW! Thanks for inviting me over to have some snacks with you, little Veggie! " Goku said happily as he sat at the
kitchen table.
" I didn't exactly invite you over, Kakarrotto. " Vegeta sweatdropped as he stood across the room, slathering mayo
all over his already over-stuffed giant hoagie, " I just happened to randomly think 'I wonder if Kakarrotto likes mayonnaise
on his ham' and, well... " he trailed off and glanced over at Goku.
" --HERE I AM! " Goku chirped, finishing the ouji's sentence.
" Hai..here you are. " Vegeta sighed.
" I cannot help it Veggie. After all it has been TWO FULL DAYS since I have last seen you. " the larger saiyajin said
sadly.
" What did Onna punish you THIS time for? " Vegeta cocked an eyebrow.
" Chi-chan is afraid another one of Bulma's inventions is going to come to life and become obsessed with me just like
Veggiesclone was. " Goku sat back in his chair.
" Well that's just stupid. " the ouji muttered, sitting down. He smirked as he ate a piece of the hoagie he had
sliced off, " I suppose Onna's paranoia and her fast-paced human metabolism are just about ready to set the stage for her
fated senile insanity. "
" ...what? " Goku blinked, confused and tilting his head slightly to the left.
" Onna's gonna go crazy as soon as she hits middle-age. " Vegeta said simply, then snickered at the thought, " Heh,
you'll have to send her off to the nuthouse, Kaka-chan. "
" Oh! I could NEVER do that to my Chi-chan, Veggie! " Goku gasped, " She would never for-give me! "
" Of course she won't because she won't be in her right mind to logically reason ANYTHING. " Vegeta pointed to his
head, " It's all psychological, you know. " he said, starting to wag his tail only to stop when it bumped into Goku's. The
ouji's face flushed bright red and he grabbed his tail to try and swat any kaka-germs off it.
" Son-kun! How are you! I thought I'd never see you again after the way Chi-Chi dragged you out of here the other
day! " Bulma said cheerfully, coming into the room. She noticed the shocked and worried look on Goku's face, then glanced
over at Vegeta skeptically, " Alright, what'd you tell him THIS time? "
" Hm? " Vegeta looked up from brushing off his tail, then let go of it, " Oh, nothing. "
" VEGGIE SAYS CHI-CHAN'S GONNA GO CRAZY WHEN SHE GETS OLD AND I'LL HAVE TO SEND HER TO THE NUTHOUSE! " Goku exclaimed
Bulma glared at Vegeta.
" WHAT? It's a very likely probability given Onna's current mental state. " Vegeta shrugged it off.
" Honestly! " Bulma groaned, " Vegeta, if I suddenly got a mental disease would YOU send me to the "nuthouse"? " she
said.
" No. I would try and find a cure. " Vegeta said. She smiled, " And if that didn't work, THEN I would send you to the
nuthouse. "
" WAH! " Bulma fell over, " UGH! " she yelled, then stomped out to the living room, " Fine. Be that way! "
Goku sweatdropped.
Vegeta looked over at him, " I think that went well. "
" Goku, if YOU need me, I'll be here watching my soaps. They come on in 5 minutes. " Bulma said, glancing at her
watch as she sat on the couch.
" Why would you wanna watch soap? " a voice came from beside her Bulma looked over and facefaulted to see Goku
sitting there with half of the giant hoagie in his arms.
" Not soap like the things you use to clean yourself, Son-kun! My soap operas! They're very dramatic. " she stated,
smiling as she sat back and watched the current commercials.
" Not to mention confusing. " Vegeta muttered from the other room.
" Hn. " Bulma twitched.
" *CHOMP*CHOMP*MUNCH*MUNCH*!! " Goku happily dug into his sandwich. Bulma glanced over at the unusually loud noises
Goku was making while eating it, then back at her tv screen, which due to the loudness of Goku's eating, was now unable to be
heard. Bulma half-panicked and turned the volume up, " *CHOMP*CHOMP*CHOMP*CHOMP*MUNCH*MUNCH*CHOMP!!! "
" Ah, Goku? " Bulma tapped him on the shoulder.
" Mmmph? " he looked down at her innocently, his face covered in splatters of various foods.
" Goku, maybe you shouldn't sit here and watch this with me. I mean, I love you like a brother, but I think maybe it
would be best if you were to leave the room. " she laughed nervously.
" Is 'parental discretion advised'? " Goku blinked. Bulma sweatdropped, then thought for a moment.
" Uh--yeah! That's it! " Bulma said cheerfully, " This show's too, umm, saucy for you! You should go. "
" *CHOMP*CHOMP*GULP*. OH! " the large saiyajin's cheeks flushed pink, " Chi-chan says I am not a-llowed to view
things of a saucy-like nature for I may imitate acts from such a show on other people who aren't her but Veggie instead! "
" *HIUMP!* " Vegeta yelped and caught some of his half of the sandwich in his throat. The ouji hit his fist against
his chest until the food finally went down, " YOU BIG BAKA DON'T SAY THINGS LIKE THAT!! " he snapped, his face now bright
red.
Bulma sighed and looked back only to gasp. The opening credits were rolling, " ACK! Goku! Why don't you and Vegeta go
outside and finish your sandwiches at the park or at a training spot and then go sparring afterwords somewhere where I won't
hear you but instead hear my soap which I am DYING to find out what happens in it today, hmm? " she looked over at them
beggingly.
Goku thought outloud, " Mmm...OH-KAY! " he chirped.
" YES! " Bulma pumped her fist in the air.
" Come little Veggie! Bulma says we are no longer needed in the building until her saucy tv show with soaps is over!"
Goku said cheerfully as he grabbed Vegeta's wrist and proceeded to leave out the back door and teleport.
" HEY! BUT I'M NOT FINISHED WITH MY SNA--- " Vegeta was cut off as the duo disappeared out of sight along with their
sandwich. Bulma sighed happily.
" Thank GOD! " she said, highering the volume on her soap opera, " Now I can get to the good part in peace! "
::She's so beautiful. The most beautiful creature I've ever seen:: a certain furry brown appendage sighed dreamily as
he watched a slightly lighter-toned one flutter through the air. The other one noticed his stare and mentally smiled back at
him.
::Hi!::
::Hi again:: the first tail blushed lighly, tilting itself a little lopsided.
::I missed you Nango-chan! The mean lady wouldn't let Goku-san out of the house at all for the past couple days!::
::Oh Bibishii, that's horrible!!:: the first tail's hair stood on end, horrified.
::I know. I shouldn't even be here now; we're not allowed out still you know:: the second tail said, slightly worried
, ::But, but Goku-san! He did something sneaky! We snuck out of the house "to go fishing" and instead we went to your home!
He wanted to see your owner again so much!::
::That's so sweet::
::Just like you, Nango-chan!::
" Oww! " Vegeta yelped, accidentally bumping shoulders with Goku as they flew off in search of a place to spar,
" Kakarrotto do you have to fly so close! " the ouji snapped, a glow of red over his nose as he looked the other way.
" Well I hate flying downwind of little Veggie, Veggie knows that! And if I fly too far ahead Veggie won't catch up!"
Goku pouted, then perked up, " Besides it's so nice to just fly along next to Veggie and talk with him! "
" We haven't spoken to each other since we finished the hoagie. " Vegeta sweatdropped.
" We're talking to each other now. " Goku pointed out.
" ...Kuso! " Vegeta groaned, slapping himself on the forehead. He looked over and blinked to see Goku sniffing the
air with a curious look on his face.
" Something smells like roasting marshmellows. " Goku said outloud.
Vegeta cocked an eyebrow, " "Roasting...". " he sniffed the air as well and froze when he recognized what it was,
" AHH! MY TAIL GLAND!! " he skidded to a halt in mid air only to yelp when he felt something tug at it which caused Goku to
jolt back. The little ouji looked over his shoulder and shrieked to see his tail and Goku's hugging onto each other while the
strong scent of roasting marshmellows emitted from his own furry appendage. Vegeta yanked his tail away in horror, twitching
with his face glowing bright red.
" Aww, Veggie gave my tail a hug! That was so nice of you, Veggie! " Goku chirped.
" I DIDN'T HUG YOUR TAIL!! AND I WASN'T DOING THAT ON PURPOSE! I, I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW IT WAS--THEY WERE--...uhh... "
the ouji was at a loss for words.
Goku tilted his head curiously and smiled warmly at the smaller saiyajin, " They were what? "
" Ah-- " Vegeta started out, then burst off ahead of him into the sky, " MEETYOUTHERE!! "
Goku watched him fly off, confused, " ..huh. " he looked down at his own tail, which to his puzzlement was blushing
profusely, " I wonder what that was about? "
" I can't believe it! This has never happened before! How could it be happening NOW! " Vegeta exclaimed to himself as
he flew on, " Tails just don't release their glandular scents for no reason like that! Especially without my consent! " he
said, starting to get worried, " I hope this is nothing serious. Of course it's not, why would it be. " Vegeta nodded, trying
to reassure himself, " It's not like saiyajin tails are extentions of ourselves. They're just appendages used to give us
extra power, and to help us transform into oozaru form, and to release certain scents depending on our mood, and for mating
purposes, and for balance, and use as an extra arm while in battle... " Vegeta rattled off.
" Hey Veggie, why're you talkin to yourself? Are you feeling oh-kay? " Goku teleported next to him, worried. He
smiled, " Do you need a hug? "
" WAHH! NO HUG! NOT NOW!! " Vegeta waved his arms frantically in the air.
" Oh. Alright. " the larger saiyajin looked disappointed, " In, in that case, does Veggie wanna start sparring now? "
Goku asked eagerly.
Vegeta looked around where they were. Grassy terrain; several nearby mountains; no forests, animals, or people,
" Perfect. " he smirked, then turned to Goku and burst into ssj2, " Alright Kakarrotto! Let's go! "
" YEAH! " Goku pumped his fist in the air, then burst into ssj2 as well and launched himself at Vegeta, letting out a
flurry of punches and kicks which the ouji blocked perfectly while their tails danced across from each other unknowingly
beneath the two saiyajins, " HEE~~YAH! " Goku let a flying kick at Vegeta, who just nearly dodged and grabbed Goku's kicking
leg, then spun him around over his head by it and suddenly let go; causing Goku to fly into a nearby mountain. The ouji's
tail looked on in sadness, then brightened up again as Vegeta flew back towards the larger saiyajin. Vegeta stopped nearly a
few inches infront of the part of the wall Goku was smashed into and began forming a ball of ki.
" GARRIKKU HO!! " the little ouji sent out a huge blast of pink ki just as Goku teleported out of the way. Vegeta
hovered in place and sent the blast at Goku, following him around. The larger saiyajin turned and plummeted downward towards
the ground until he was sure there was no way for the giant ki blast to make the turn before it hit and Goku once again
teleported out of the way, leaving a now huge smoldering crater beneath him.
" HEEE~! " Goku burst into a grin as he floated above the crater. Vegeta glared up at him, then flew up at Goku only
to disappear suddenly and reappear behind the larger saiyajin. Vegeta grabbed Goku's arms and hurtled him downward into the
crater his ki ball had just made, Goku screaming at the top of his lungs. Vegeta grinned. Goku smashed tummy-first into the
ground while Vegeta held on tightly to Goku's outstretched arms. The ouji's hands starting to gather ki while holding his
target down. The two tails swooned around each other and until they had nearly tied themselves in an
impossible-to-untie-looking knot, their fur poofing up on end as two large puffs lightly-colored scent puffed out and rose
around them.
Vegeta had nearly finished gathering the ki he needed to blast Goku in the back and, using the same respective force,
launch himself back into the air--when he smelled it. It was the unmistakable smell of roasting marshmellows, this time
accompanied by a strange new rich chocolatey scent.
" *sniff*sniff*, hey Veggie! We smell like smores! " Goku chirped from beneath him. Vegeta twitched, his face bright
red with embarassment, " I could sure go for some smores right now little Veggie! Where's it comin from? " he started to
glance over his shoulder.
" DONTLOOK! " Vegeta powered his ki attack down so he could turn Goku's head the other way, " Just, don't look. " he
said in a crackled voice. The ouji glanced at the tails on his own to see the lightly-tinted red and pink colored scents
hovering over their tails while the two tails wiggled around as if it were christmas, " Oh God......OH GOD!! " Vegeta said in
a combination of a wail and a groan, petrified.
" What what what! " Goku said, curious to find out what Vegeta was moaning about.
" NOTHING! IT'S, it's nothing, really. " the ouji gave him a cheesy smile.
" Is it, somethin bad, Veggie? "
" NO!........yyyyyyes! " Vegeta looked away uneasily. He looked back over at his tail who's fur was now completely
on-end and making swooshing circles around Goku's tail which just swayed slightly to the left and right, not bumping into
Vegeta's, " AHHHHH!! " he lept off the larger saiyajin's back only to blink and watch blankly as his tail creeped past him
and wiggled longingly toward the other tail's direction. Vegeta grabbed his tail, frustrated, " YOU CUT THAT OUT! THAT'S
KAKARROTTO OVER THERE OR HAVEN'T YOU NOTICED! AND THAT TAIL YOUR SQUIRTING THINGS AT IS ATTACHED TO HIS REAR END!!! "
Goku pouted in a slightly offended way, sitting up, " What is wrong with my rear end? "
" Nothing! I mean--of course it's--WAAUGH!! " Vegeta sputtered.
Goku's tail tapped him on the shoulder beggingly, " Oh, hello there! " Goku said happily. The tail pointed to Vegeta,
then hugged Goku's arm, " What's that lil tail 'o mine? You want me to give little Veggie a HUG? " he grinned. Vegeta paled.
" DON'T LISTEN TO IT, BAKA! IT ONLY WANTS YOU TO HUG ME SO IT CAN CONTINUE SMOTHERING IT'S KAKA-GERMS ALL OVER MY
PROBABLY-ALREADY-INFECTED TAIL!!! " Vegeta exclaimed.
Goku laughed at the thought, " Aww Veggie, that's silly! "
" "SILLY"!? THEY WERE PRACTICALLY BATHING IN EACH OTHER'S SCENT YOU SIMPLE-MINDED PEASANT!! THAT'S SO WRONG I CAN'T
EVEN BEGIN TO EXPLAIN IT TO YOU IN ANY WAY YOU'D REMOTELY UNDERSTAND! " Vegeta screamed until his face turned blue from lack
of oxygen. The ouji took a deep breath and promptly tied his tail around his waist, " There! "
Goku's tail hung sadly and reached out to rub the ouji's tail in a concerned and protective manner. Both saiyajins
stared at the tails, confused.
" Wow, this is just like one of Bulma's shampoo commercials, huh Veggie? " Goku said finally after a long,
uncomfortable wait.
" It's "soap operas", Kakarrotto. " Vegeta corrected him, a large sweatdrop rolling down the side of his head.
" ... "
" ... "
" Kakarrotto, will you quit it already! " the ouji twitched at Goku's tail, which was still comforting his own.
" But I am not doing it! " Goku said, " It's my tail that's doing it all on its own. "
" Well then tell it to STOP RUBBING ME! " Vegeta screamed in paranoia, grabbing Goku's tail only to have the larger
saiyajin suddenly cry out in pain.
" WAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! " Goku fell out of ssj2 into ssj1, " WAAAAAAAAHHHHAAAHHAAAAAAAAAA!!!!! "
Vegeta blinked when it suddenly hit him, ::Kakarrotto's tail is still vunerable when you grab it! Of course, he
hasn't rigorously trained his tail lately to repel the pain like I have with mine::
" VEGGIE...VEH-GEEE!!! " Goku wailed, his eyes starting to tear from the searing pain being sent up his spine.
" Huh?--OH! " Vegeta started to let go only to have Goku suddenly hop up and spin over, then snap his tail causing
Vegeta to be catapulted into the distance.
" OwWIE.... " Goku sniffled rubbing his tail. He looked up just intime to see Vegeta spiral off into the distance.
Goku sweatdropped, " Uh-oh. "
" Ahh, a cup of iced-tea is so nice. " Chi-Chi said happily as she took her cup off the counter and headed towards
the living room, " And Go-chan is safe up in his room being nice and quiet. " she took a sip as she walked to the couch.
Chi-Chi froze suddenly, " Hey, waitaminute, Goku's never quie--- "
" *POOOOOOOOOWW*!!!! "
" WAAAHHHH!!! " Chi-Chi screamed as a fairly large cannonball burst through the wall, past her, and through another
wall and then, if watched closely, through several nearby trees before hitting and sliding down the old apple tree in the
distance. Chi-Chi twitched, her heart nearly beating in her throat. Her bottom left eyelid twitched in shock.
" OH! Hi Chi-chan! " Goku chirped, entering the house through the first hole that had been just made, " Have you seen
Veggie come through here? "
Chi-Chi finally got her voice back, she looked over at him, her brain trying to register several things at once while
still in her current state, causing several different levels of confusion in her brain, " WHAT THE HECK WAS THAT AND WHY
SHOULD I CARE WHERE THE OUJI IS AND WHAT ARE YOU DOING OUTSIDE I PUNISHED YOU TO YOUR ROOM!!! " she screamed while waving her
arms in the air.
" You're spilling your iced-tea. " Goku pointed out.
Chi-Chi stopped and blinked, then glanced over to see she indeed had splattered nearly all her glass all over herself
and Goku. Chi-Chi sweatdropped, then pouted at her empty glass and held it with both hands, " ...OOOH! GOKU! " she slammed
her hands together, busting the cup into a million little pieces
" AHHHH.... " Goku backed up, frightened, " Please don't hurt me... " he held his arms up as if waiting to be hit or
smacked.
" Oh, I'm not going to physically hurt you, Go-chan. " Chi-Chi said calmly.
Goku partially pulled his arms away, " You're not? "
" Of course not. " she smiled, patting him on the head. Goku smiled contently and wagged his tail. Chi-Chi grabbed
him by the collar and yanked him down to her height, " No Ouji for 2 months! "
" WAHHHH!!! WHAT!!! " Goku exclaimed. His tail swooned backward and went limp, " CHI-CHAN NO! It's not Veggie's
fault! He didn't do anything bad to me at all I swear! "
" HA! " she mock-laughed, " Yeah right. I bet he came in here and stole you out of your room when I wasn't looking. "
" No! I teleported to Veggie's house cuz I missed Veggie so much! He even let me share his little Veggiesandwich with
him and that is not a mean thing to do at all! "
" He probably put alcohol or something in the sandwich. "
" Veggie didn't know I was coming and even so if there had been I would already be drunk and trying to sedu-size
people already! " Goku nodded.
" It's "seduce", Goku. " Chi-Chi corrected him.
" That's exactly what I mean! " Goku said.
" BLEHHHH! " a sound came from behind them.
" Ahh! " Goku yelped and turned around along with Chi-Chi to see a beaten, mud-splotched Vegeta leaning against the
side of the wall the 2nd hole had torn in the house, " VEGGIE! " he gasped in horror and worry.
" Vege--THAT'S what just flew in and out of my house making those holes and almost killed me! That was YOU! " she
pointed at Vegeta.
" It's not like I had a choice, Onna! Kakarrotto threw me so hard the momentum made it too difficult for me to stop
at the point of exhaustion I was currently at. " the ouji said tiredly.
" What? " Chi-Chi groaned.
" Veggie says he was going too fast for his tired lil Veggie-body to slow him down enough to stop completely. " Goku
translated, " But at least the big apple tree was able to act as a catcher's mitt for Veggie's little body! "
Chi-Chi looked off into the distance and sweatdropped, " Great, now it has a ouji-print on it. " she muttered.
" Aw shuddup, Onna! " Vegeta grumbled, wobbling back.
" Oh Veggie let me help you! " Goku rushed to aid the little ouji, picking him up and carrying him over to the very
couch Chi-Chi was about to sit on.
" GOKU! DON'T PUT THE OUJI THERE! THAT'S A NEW COUCH! " Chi-Chi snapped.
" Oh. Oh-kay then. " Goku got up and walked over to the stairs.
" AND NOT IN YOUR BED EITHER!! "
Goku face-faulted, " Then where CAN I put little Veggie!? "
" Simple. On the floor. " Chi-Chi nodded.
" NO WAY! " Goku gasped, hugging on tightly to Vegeta, " I am not putting MY little Veggie on the floor like
something that...does belong on the floor. " he explained, " At least let me put Veggie on one end of the couch! "
" NO! "
" But he's barely even consious! What's he gonna do? "
" NO! NO NO NO!! " Chi-Chi shouted. Goku's eyes watered.
" I can't believe he's on your lap and on my couch. I CAN'T! " Chi-Chi groaned as she sat at the other end while Goku
was on the opposite side hugging the unconsious ouji.
" Well I DID hit Veggie kinda hard. I mean he was grabbing my tail and it hurt real bad and it was just my instinct
to swing him off of it! It's not like I wanted to hurt Veggie! " Goku said, holding his own still partially aching tail.
" Uhhh.... " Vegeta groaned in his semi-unconsious state.
" WILL YOU GET HIM OFF MY COUCH! " Chi-Chi snapped.
" But Chi-chan! Being thrown through two walls and several trees can take a lot out of an already tired little Veggie
! He needs his rest. "
" Not in my house he doesn't. " Chi-Chi said flatly, then got up, walked over to Vegeta, grabbed him off of Goku and
dropped him on the floor.
" OWW! " Vegeta yelped, fully waking up, " Wha? Where'd I go? " he blinked, then quickly surveyed his surroundings
and noticed Goku sitting on the couch staring down at him curiously while Chi-Chi glared at Vegeta, standing infront of him.
The ouji smirked, " Ah. Onna. Hello. "
" Ouji. " Chi-Chi acknowledged him.
" So. " Vegeta said, getting up. He turned to Goku, " We're HERE because... "
Goku pointed to the hole in the wall. Vegeta glanced over and sweatdropped.
" YOU THREW ME THROUGH THE WALL OF YOUR HOUSE!! " Vegeta shouted.
" Well, two walls...and 1, 2, 3----6 trees! " Goku chirped, holding up six fingers, " 7 if you count the big ol'
apple tree but you didn't make it through that one since it's so old 'n fat. "
" Heh, just like Onna! " Vegeta grinned at her.
" OOOH...WHY YOU LITTLE! " she grabbed Vegeta by the throat and started choking him Simpsons style.
Vegeta chuckled at her lack of grip; compaired to the ouji at least. If Chi-Chi had been trying to choke a human he
or she would've been dead 5 seconds ago. Vegeta looked over at Goku out of the corner of his eye. The larger saiyajin sat
on the couch with his hands clenched and covering his mouth in worry. Vegeta looked back at Chi-Chi, who was struggling to
squeeze Vegeta's neck even tighter. She froze at the evil grin that suddenly appeared on the smaller saiyajin's face.
" ACK!! " Vegeta let out a fake yelp and held his breath til he turned blue in the face, his eyes bulging out of his
head.
" HEY! DON'T YOU MESS WITH ME, OUJI!! " Chi-Chi snapped at him. Vegeta tilted his head to the right and lulled his
eyes up to the top of his eyesockets. The ouji lowered his ki and hung his limbs lifeless, including his tail. Goku's tail
stared at the sight and fainted, " OUJI!!!.....Ouji? " she said cautiously. A trail of drool hung out the side of Vegeta's
mouth, " Uhh.... " Chi-Chi blinked, then turned nervously to Goku, who looked like his heart had just been snapped in two.
The large saiyajin's eyes had widened to an unmeasurable size and his lip quivered as if he was going to burst into tears and
wailing any second now.
" Veggie...dead? " he squeaked out, trying his best not to cry.
" NO! Of course he's not "dead"! Not really! L--look! See? " Chi-Chi held up the little ouji towards him. Goku
started to sniffle at the still blue-faced ouji.
" *hip*hip*hip*WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! " he
wailed at the top of his lungs, " GIVE ME VEGGIE! " he lept up and grabbed Vegeta away from her, then hugged him tightly
with the ouji's head over Goku's shoulder. Vegeta looked over at Chi-Chi, his expression now back to normal and minus the
blue-ness, and grinned evilly at her. Chi-Chi stared at him, gawking.
" Why you evil maniupulating little-- " she reached to smack him.
" NO NO NO!!! " Goku moved back across the couch to avoid the ouji getting hit again, " You could've just KILLED
Veggie just now, Chi-chan! " he hugged Vegeta protectively.
" Yeah Onna, how dare you try and kill 'Veggie' infront of his peasant like that. " Vegeta nodded. Goku and Chi-Chi
sweatdropped. Goku pulled Vegeta off him to see the ouji's face.
" VEGGIE! " he squealed, hugging him again only smushing the ouji's face against his chest instead of over his
shoulder, " You're ALIVE! "
" Well, look at that. " Vegeta said, smirking, " It MUST'VE been a miracle. "
" A miracle? " Goku said in awe w/big sparkily eyes.
" Yes, Kakay. A miracle. Who knows? Maybe your magical kaka-powers were what saved me. " the ouji snickered off in
Chi-Chi's direction and hugged the larger saiyajin back.
" I have magical powers really? " Goku's eyes widened even more.
" I wouldn't be surprised. " Vegeta said flatly, then looked back up at Goku, " But you're always full of surprises,
aren't you Kakay. " he smiled in a mock-sweet tone of voice.
" Heeheehee, yes. " Goku grinned, hugging tighter.
" I hate you. " Chi-Chi glared at Vegeta.
" I know. " the ouji happily replied.
" *POOOF*! "
Chi-Chi cocked an eyebrow at the floating red mist hovering out of the corner of her eye, " Do either of you smell
MARSHMELLOWS all of a sudden? "
Vegeta paled and glanced over to see his tail spraying its scent all over Goku's, which it had in what looked like a
headlock, " EHHHHHH eh eh eh.... " Vegeta turned his head back to its former position and whinced, shuddering.
" Oh GROSS! Ouji that's YOU! " Chi-Chi gawked and pinched her nose as she backed away from where Vegeta's tail was,
" What are trying to do! Stink my whole house up! "
" I'M NOT DOING IT ON PURPOSE! " Vegeta yelled back at her, then glared at his tail, " YOU CUT THAT OUT!!! "
Vegeta's tail whinced and slid away from Goku's.
" Wait...your TAIL has it's own free will!? " Chi-Chi looked seriously creeped out.
" What, you didn't know that? " Vegeta cocked an eyebrow at her oddly.
" OF COURSE I DIDN'T! HOW WOULD I KNOW SOMETHING LIKE THAT! " she exclaimed.
" Well haven't you ever seen Kakarrotto's tail try to communicate with you? Or with Kakarrotto himself? " Vegeta
hopped off the couch.
" No....not, really. " Chi-Chi thought outloud, " AND HOW CAN IT HAVE IT'S OWN FREE WILL ANYWAY! IT'S A TAIL!! AN
APPENDAGE!! "
" Saiyajin tails are much different than the tails of other tailed creatures. " Vegeta said proudly.
" Heeheehee. " Goku tapped Vegeta's tail and it instantly turned towards him, then started slinking closer to the
larger saiyajin's tail, " Hi there! My name's Son Goku! What is yours? "
" It can't talk, baka. " Vegeta sweatdropped, " They communicate by movement. And if they really desperately needed
to contact us they would send a telepathic signal from themselves up to where our brains are. " the ouji pointed to his head,
" And besides, they don't have names. "
" Can I name them then? " Goku grinned.
" *POOF*POOF*POOF*! " three short poofs of pink gas shot out from inside of Goku's tail.
Vegeta grabbed his own tail and backed away from Goku, twitching.
" I know! I'll call it Coco cuz it makes chocolate-scented perfume! " Goku chirped happily.
::Her NAME is Bibishii:: Vegeta's tail mentally snorted, ::And she's not an "it":: the tail added.
" Kakarrotto and Cocorrotto. Perfect. " Vegeta muttered sarcastically.
" What are you gonna call your lil-lil Veggie-tail, Veggie? " Goku bent down to the tail's height and watched it
wiggle about.
" I'm not going to give it a NAME! Whatever it wants to call itself is fine with me. " Vegeta brushed it off.
" How about we call it Fluffie cuz of how all of the fur on Veggie's tail fluffs out when I hug him? " Goku tilted
his head.
" NO. " Vegeta folded his arms stubbornly, " I'm not calling it anything! "
" Awww, poor lil nameless Veggiestail. " Goku said, petting it softly.
" Goku will you get away from there! It makes it look like you're staring at the Ouji's butt! " Chi-Chi yelled,
annoyed.
" And what's WRONG with my butt? " Vegeta snorted, then smirked, " I happen to think it's quite perfect, actually. "
" Heehee, Veggie's tushie's kinda round! " Goku giggled.
Vegeta froze in place, " DON'T LOOK THERE!! "
" I wasn't until Veggie started talkin about it. " Goku pointed out, " I just wanted to see. "
" Yeah..well, there's some things in life that your large peasant eyes shouldn't gaze upon FOR MORE THAN 5 SECONDS! "
" Why not? It is not ugly at all little Veggie. " Goku tried to reassure him.
Vegeta twitched.
" Hahaha! " Chi-Chi laughed, then froze to see the large saiyajin reaching comfortingly to pat the ouji's bottom,
" HEY! " Chi-Chi grabbed Goku's wrist before his hand touched down, " WHAT THE HECK DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING!! "
" Trying to make little Veggie's tushie feel better about it's self-esteem. " Goku replied.
" ... "
" ...? " Goku tilted his head.
" Goku. Go to your room. " Chi-Chi said lamely, pointing over her shoulder, " AND NO TELEPORTING THIS TIME! "
" Hai Chi-chan. " Goku waddled out of the room.
Chi-Chi turned to Vegeta, " You know Ouji, you've had some sick twisted evil plots in this one's just plain...wrong!"
" It's not a plot! My tail really DOES have a mind of it's own! " Vegeta complained. His tail leered at Chi-Chi and
shot a greenish spray at her. Chi-Chi reeled back in disgust.
" Oh GOD! What is that! It's worse than a SKUNK! "
" Saiyajin tails release scents to ward off possible threats by attacking their nostrils with a pukish scent that
will send you hugging the toilet in about 15 seconds. " Vegeta snickered, glancing at the watch underneath his right glove.
Chi-Chi's face paled and she quickly covered her mouth to try and swallow the same food she was just about to throw
up, " BLEH!! "
" Bwahaha! "
Chi-Chi sent a death-glare in Vegeta's direction, " Well if THAT'S what it's supposed to do then WHY was it RED
before! "
Vegeta looked over his shoulder, avoiding eye-contact, " I'd, rather not talk about that. "
" The RED gas does something DIFFERENT then the green one, doesn't it Ouji? " she said suspiciously.
" You wouldn't like it though. " Vegeta smirked, still avoiding eye-contact, " If Kakarrotto got a good long whiff of
it. Not a pretty picture. "
Chi-Chi narrowed her eyes.
" Why, it would just drive his small Kaka-mind MAD with desire. "
" WHAT!! " Chi-Chi exploded.
" Saiyajin tails emit many different types of scents in many different types of situations. Such as anger,
friendliness, sadness, love... "
" "LOVE"!!! " Chi-Chi screamed, grabbing Vegeta by the collar and holding him up. Vegeta snickered at her.
" VEGGIELUVSME? " a voice squeaked from above them. Chi-Chi and Vegeta looked up to see Goku's head sticking out of
the ceiling, upsidedown.
" Hai, Kakay. Veggie "luvs" you. " Vegeta grinned evilly.
" Oh Veh-gee~~.... " the larger saiyajin said w/big sparkily eyes.
" OOOOOOOOOOH... " Chi-Chi snarled, " GOKU GET BACK IN YOUR ROOM RIGHT NOW!!! "
" YesChichan! " Goku chirped, pulling his head back through the ceiling.
" ...did he just, move his body through a solid object without making a hole? " Vegeta said, shocked and disturbed.
Chi-Chi paled, " Yes. I think he just did. " she said in an equally shocked and faraway tone of voice.
" ... "
" ... "
" Now what were you saying about that nasty red gas? " Chi-Chi glared at him.
" It's a mate-attacting scent. "
" WHAT?! " Chi-Chi fell over, then got up, " Hey, waitaminute! There wasn't anything special-smelling about that GAS
at all! It smelled like marshmellows...rotten marshmellows...but that's about it. " she said to herself. Her lips quirked
up into a smile, " Ah, you're lying, huh Ouji? "
" I wish I was. " Vegeta muttered in terror to himself, then whipped around to face Chi-Chi with a boastful look on
his face, " Actually Onna, the full power of this particular smell can only cause an effect if it were to be concentrated
within a small enclosed area on another saiyajin. "
" HA! " Chi-Chi laughed mockingly.
Vegeta smirked, " Would you like a demonstration then? " the ouji looked upward at the ceiling, " HEY KAKARR-- "
" --yesVeggie! "
Confusion set on on Vegeta as he looked to his left to find Goku suddenly standing there, " ACK! "
" Veggie oh-kay? " Goku pouted, concerned.
Chi-Chi chuckled at him. Vegeta glared at her, then stubbornly grabbed the larger saiyajin and held on tight.
" I'm fine, Kakay. " the smaller saiyajin replied.
Goku looked down at the ouji and giggled embarassingly, " Boy, Veggie must sure be in a good mood to hug me and all!"
he said happily, then blinked as Vegeta raised his tail just under Goku's nose, " Haha, that tickles, Veggie! "
" I'm sure it does. " the hairs on the Vegeta's tail stood up and sprayed the red mist right up Goku's nose. Vegeta
gulped and braced for the worst on the inside while on the outside he seemed mentally calm. Goku's eyes widened to take up
nearly half of his head, ::I must be INSANE! Doing this just to goad Onna! I must have a death-wish or something!!!:::
Vegeta screamed at himself inside his head only to recieve a glomp in return. He looked up to see Goku had a completely
blank look on his face with the exception of the ultra-wide eyes. Vegeta cocked an eyebrow in surprise that this was the
only 'punishment' he had recieved for pulling the stunt. The ouji mentally sighed with relief only to freeze when the glomp
started growing tighter and tighter until the larger saiyajin near-completely loomed over him like a saiyajin blanket;
Vegeta's footing the only thing keeping himself from falling back-first onto the floor, " Uhhh... "
" *SQUEAK*! "
" Squeak? " Vegeta repeated to himself, baffled. He felt a large cu-tip brush past his ear and then cheek. It hit him
what it was and the breath quickly sucked out of his mouth in horror. Goku's tail was wrapping around the ouji's neck as if
ready to choke him if not for Vegeta noticing the appendage glowing bright pink. It rubbed thoughtfully against his chin and
Vegeta's eyes nearly shot out of his head. His teeth started to chatter as the tail positioned itself under Vegeta's nose
and made the noises as if it were reloading to shoot. The tail gently edged up closer and instantly every little hair on
Goku's tail stood on end. Vegeta let out a scream of pure terror as he burst into ssj2, hopped up and sent a swift kick to
Goku's gut, then ran off and out off the house screaming with fear.
With the absense of the ouji's tail and it's scent, oxygen soon flowed freely back into Goku's nostrils and his
pupils soon shrunk back to their normal size. He looked around, confused, " How did I get down here again? And where is
little Veggie? "
Goku's tail meanwhile was shaking like a madman, still glowing bright pink and reaching out in every direction in a
wild attempt to go after Vegeta's tail.
" Hey there lil guy, girl, tail. What're you so excited about? " Goku laughed happily at it.
" *POOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOF*!!! "
the color pink and the smell of chocolate filled the air of the room.
" Goku. Wrap it around your waist and get in the car. " Chi-Chi twitched, annoyed.
" But Chi-chan you told me to go to my roo--- "
" --JUST GET IN THE CAR!! " she snapped. Goku gulped and dashed outside to the vehicle and hopped in the passanger's
seat. Chi-Chi groaned as she opened all the windows in the house and looked at the pink gas in disgust, " That stupid
chocolate smell is going to take FOREVER to get out of here! "
" My love, as you know I am slowly dying. " the young woman on the hospital bed said to the man standing next to her.
" No! You can't die! I won't let you! " he protested with the same overexaggerated emotionalness as she had. Bulma
leaned closer to the tv with her chocolate pudding snack in her hands and her eyes starting to water.
" Well too bad because I'm going to anyway! "
" NOOOO! " he wailed, falling to his knees and holding his arms up at the sky.
" But--remember this, my love. After I have died. Promise me you and your wife whom you were forced to marry for your
inheritance yet still sort of like her, have lots of children together. Teach your children how to ride on a bike, and how
many licks it does take to get to the tootsie roll center of a tootsie pop. Learn and love with them all. And then, one day,
when you're very very old, you'll go out riding on a horse, and you'll ride all day and finally come back home. Then you'll
make some of that swiss miss hot cocoa, and pour in some sugar, and milk, and marshmellows. And then fall asleep and die. "
" ... "
" ... "
" Wow...that was anticlimactical, wasn't it. " he muttered, shifting uneasily.
" Yes. It was. "
" ... "
" ... "
" But I have but one more thing to tell you before I die and you eventually join me 70 years later. It's about my
killer. "
Bulma nearly choked on her spoon in anticipation.
" The killer...is really-- "
" --WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! "
a scream of horror erupted from across the room, snapping Bulma out of her daze. She looked up to see Vegeta had just run
straight through the wall, missing the door by only a few inches; and was currently running around the house in random
directions screaming his head off with his arms flailing about in fear.
" OOOOOOH! VEGETA!!!!! " Bulma screamed angrily at him, " YOU MADE ME MISS WHO HER KILLER WAS!! "
" ? " he instantly turned to her, still breathing quickly and heavily, " AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! " he ran over to her and
grabbed her by the sleeves of her sweater, " OH BULMA IT'S TERRIFYING YOU'VE GOTTA DO SOMETHING!! "
" Other than fix the giant hole you made in the wall. " she motioned to the Vegeta-shaped hole next to the front
door.
" Oh. I didn't notice that. " Vegeta pointed out, then turned all his attention back to her, " OH BULMA MY TAIL IS
ACTING ALL MUSHY AND NICE WITH KAKARROTTO'S TAIL! YOU HAVE TO STOP THEM!!! "
" Your....tails? " Bulma looked down at him, disturbed.
" THEY WERE HUGGING EACH OTHER BULMA! THEY WERE HUGGING!!! " Vegeta's whole body shuddered.
" So? Son-kun hugs YOU all the time and for the most part you never complai-- "
" --NOT THAT TYPE OF HUGGING! THE ROMANTIC TYPE OF HUGGING!!! "
" ... " Bulma looked at him like he had just lost his marbles, " Vegeta are you insane! They're APPENDAGES! You move
them on your OWN! They can't move themselves just as much as your legs can't run unless you make them do it YOURSELF. " she
tried to explain to him.
" But this is DIFFERENT! MUCH DIFFERENT!! " Vegeta shouted, " SAIYAJIN TAILS HAVE A MIND OF THEIR OWN AND
MINE'S MIND IS BEING TAKEN OVER BY KAKARROTTO'S TAIL'S MIND! OR EVEN KAKARROTTO HIMSELF!!! THAT'S WHY YOU NEED TO HELP ME!
You need to hide me. Hide me and help me figure out a way to stop Kakarrotto's tail! " he twitched in paranoia.
" Uh...right. " Bulma said, sliding his hands off her arms, " Hey, I have an idea. Why don't you go rest in your
bed for a little while and after my show is over I'll come help you. "
" My BED! ARE YOU NUTS?! THAT'LL BE THE FIRST PLACE KAKARROTTO'S TAIL WILL COME SEARCHING FOR MINE!!! "
Bulma sighed tiredly, " Ugh.... "
" *BEEP*BEEP*BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP*!!!!! " a car horn blared outside on the front lawn. Bulma looked outside through
Vegeta's hole-in-the-wall and groaned.
" Oh no... " she said while looking at the Son car. Chi-Chi continuously beeping the horn while Goku sat next to her
trying to calm down his frightened tail, " YOU PEOPLE COULD'VE PICKED ANY OTHER HOUR OF THE DAY EXCEPT THIS ONE!!! " Bulma
exclaimed at the ceiling, " ...oh well. At least I have the tape running. I guess I can just rewind it after it's over and
watch it again later. " she sighed sadly, " But it's just not the same. "
" OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOUJIIII!!! " Chi-Chi yelled, getting out of the car, " How dare you try and come onto
my Go-chan like that! And right infront of me! "
" What? " Bulma cocked an eyebrow.
" I WASN'T COMING ONTO THE BIG BAKA AT ALL! I was trying to demonstrate the powers of the saiyajin tail. "
" HA! YOU SPRAYED THAT NASTY TAIL GAS UP GO-CHAN'S FACE AND TURNED HIM INTO A TEMPORARY OUJI-LOVIN ZOMBIE!!! "
" I had NO intention of hypnotizing Kakarrotto at all. Besides it's his creepy Kaka-tail that's behind all this! It
just seems to have taken a liking to my tail. That's all. To tell the truth I can't blame it seeing as who it's attached
to. " Vegeta smirked, motioning to his own tail.
" Chi-chan can I get out of the car now? " Goku called out from still in the passanger's seat in the car on the front
lawn.
" NO! "
Goku pouted, " Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.... "
Bulma paled as she watched Chi-Chi and Vegeta stare each other down in anger as if they were in an old cowboy movie.
She gulped at the idea of what would happen to her living room, had she left the infuriated duo here, " Uh, hey guys! How
about all four of us go down to the lab and I'll perform some tests and figure everything out, eh? " she laughed nervously.
" EVERYthing? " Vegeta said curiously.'
" YES! EVERYTHING!! " Bulma said, loosing patience.
" Well. Alright then. " Vegeta grinned happily at her. Bulma fell over.
" WAHHHHHH~... "
" Come on Go-chan! Bulma says she can fix your tail's strange Ouji-tail cravings! " Chi-Chi said in a sing-song
voice.
" HOORAY! " Goku cheered, hopping out of the car and rushing down to the lab.
Chi-Chi and Vegeta looked down at the path Goku had just run upon; which unfortunately included Bulma. They looked at
each other, then back at Bulma, " Hooray. " they cheered, then lamely walked off keeping much distance between them.
Bulma twitched, getting up, " This is gonna hurt for a while.... "
" Huh, that's weird. " Bulma muttered as she looked through a microscope in the lab.
" What's weird? What? Did you figure out what was wrong? Can you fix it? TELL ME YOU CAN FIX IT! " Vegeta panicked as
he sat upright on the operating table next to Goku. Their tails in the middle of a tango with each other; unbeknownst to the
two saiyajins.
" According to this analysis and these many countless scientific studies...your tails are both perfectly healthy. "
" WHAT?! " Vegeta exclaimed.
" Hooray! " Goku cheered. Vegeta smacked him on the back of the head.
" BAKA! WHY ARE YOU CHEERING! SHE CAN'T FIND WHAT'S WRONG WITH US YET!! "
" ...why did little Veggie hit me like that? I never meant to make Vedge'ums mad at me...why are you mad at me,
lil-lil Vedge'ums? " Goku's eyes watered. Vegeta's face flushed bright red and he turned away.
" Fine. I'm sorry I hit you. I'm just frustrated that with all Bulma's scientific futuristic inventions that she
cannot locate what is wrong with our tails. " the ouji grumbled.
" Aww! Veggie luvs me again! " Goku chirped, giving Vegeta a warm hug.
" Uh heh-heh, heh-heh-hehhhhh... " Vegeta's face glowed brighter and a goofy grin appeared on his face.
" GOKU-SAN YOU LET GO OF THAT EVIL OUJI RIGHT NOW! " Chi-Chi snapped. Goku instantly did so.
" Yes Chi-chan. " he quickly replied, nodding obediently.
" Heh, you are so afraid of losing. " Vegeta mocked with a big evil grin on his face.
Chi-Chi rolled up her sleeves, " WHY YOU LITTLE--- "
" HEY! Calm down you guys OH-KAY! " Bulma laughed nervously, then glared at them both, " If you wanna beat the crap
out of each other you can do it outside, as in NOT in my lab. "
" Ha! It wouldn't take me even the amount of time to walk from here to the yard in the time it would take me to
destroy Onna and wipe her off the face of the Earth. " Vegeta mocked, then grinned sweetly and tilted his head back in Goku's
direction, " But Kakay knows I would never do that because it is the wrong thing to do, right Kakay-chaaaan? "
Goku's eyes widened to the size of watermelons, " Oh Veggie..... " he mused, moving a few inches closer to Vegeta.
The ouji's face turned bright red again and he jumped off the table and zipped to a random chair in the room.
" So, how much longer until you figure out what's wrong with our tails? " Vegeta asked Bulma.
" Yeah Bulma, how much longer? " a little voice chirped from beneath Vegeta.
The ouji pulled a double-take to see Goku suddenly sitting between him and the chair. Goku's tail snuggled around
Vegeta's waist and glowing bright pink.
" Oh GOD... " Vegeta yelped as the tail held on tigher. He turned to his own tail, " WELL, DO SOMETHING! "
" *poof*! " the ouji's tail let out a small red poof of gas. Bulma took this opportunity to grab a beaker and enclose
some of the gas inside it.
" What a strange gas... " she cocked an eyebrow, " I suppose I could use this in a few tests, but I still don't see
anything unhealthy about your tails. "
" BUT THEY'RE ACTING ALL MUSHY TOWARDS EACH OTHER!!! "
" Well they like one another! There's nothing wrong with that. I mean, they're the only two saiyajin tails in the
entire universe! They can't communicate with anyone else so it's natural that they'd form a friendship of some type. " Bulma
explained to him.
Vegeta snorted and folded his arms, " Feh. Some "friendship". " he said, then looked about the room absentmindedly
until glancing down to see all the hairs on Goku's tail standing on end. Vegeta opened his mouth to scream only to have the
gas spray up at and be sucked inside while he took the deep breath needed to scream at the top of his lungs. The ouji's eyes
suddenly widened as his entire body turned red and he began to shake as if he were seated ontop of a giant blender. Chi-Chi
looked at him uneasily.
" Hey Ouji...you oh-kay? "
Vegeta finally gained control over the shaking and his hands clamped down behind him onto the larger saiyajin's
wrists.
" Oww! Veggie that hurt! " Goku pouted, then blinked as the grip on his wrists tightened. Vegeta turned his head over
his shoulder and smirked at Goku with a crazy look in his eye.
" Ka-ka-rrot-to....? " he chuckling choked out.
" H--hai... " Goku's cheeks started to turn pink.
Vegeta turned around and widened his smirk to a grin, " Come closer, Kakarrotto... "
" Hai.. " Goku squeaked out, sliding closer.
" Closer.. "
" Hai. "
" Clo--WAHHHHHH!!! " Vegeta yelped as a burst of water blasted him off Goku's lap and clear against the wall of the
lab. Chi-Chi smirked and put away her water-balloon filled firing cannon.
" Water-balloons? " Bulma cocked an eyebrow.
" They won't let me buy any actual cannonballs. You need a special license for that. " Chi-Chi explained.
" Oh. "
" HA! Take THAT, Ouji! "
" Wha-huh? " Vegeta sat up woozily and soggy.
" Veggie oh-kay? " Goku tilted his head curiously as he watched the ouji, concerned.
Vegeta blinked, then shot up and snapped angrily at him, " YOU BIG BAKAYARO DON'T YOU EVER DO THAT AGAIN!!! "
" ...huh? "
Vegeta growled and then turned to his hands and shuddered at them, " I think this is the first time I'm actually GLAD
that Onna packed a few weapons with her. " he muttered.
" Ah-HA! " Bulma announced as she set the beaker down, then started chuckling, " Hahaha. HohohohohHO! "
" Ya think that's funny, huh? " Vegeta said dryly.
" Haha, no, it's that, well, I think I know what's wrong with your tails, guys. " Bulma said between bursts of
laughter.
" And that would be... " Vegeta started out, leaning against the table she was standing next to.
" They're in, haha, love! " she did her best to hold back more giggles.
A large heavy cloud of doom hung over the other three people in the room while Bulma continued to laugh only to
pause to look at the terrified look on the others faces.
" Ah, yeah. Haha. " she laughed weakly.
" ....YOU HAVE TO BE JOKING! TELL ME YOU'RE JOKING!! " Chi-Chi was the first to break the silence. She grabbed
Bulma's arms and shook her back and forth, " TELL ME THIS IS ALL SOME SICK SCIENTIST PRANK OF YOURS!!! "
" Uh, I'm, not joking. " Bulma sweatdropped, " The gas/juice I just examined from Vegeta's tail is similar to the
types of scents wild animals create when they're trying to attract mates. If the tails have their own minds like Vegeta said,
then they're exhibiting this scents to one another because, well, they're in love. "
Chi-Chi dropped her hold on Bulma's arms, " Now that's just WRONG! " she exclaimed.
" I think it's a little strange their tails actually have minds to begin with! " Bulma said as she watched Goku and
Vegeta's tails. Vegeta was still in a state of shock.
" Aww, you mean our Coco and Veggie's un-named tail're gonna get married. " Goku grinned.
Vegeta's body made a weird hacking and wheezing sound.
" Coco? " Bulma cocked an eyebrow.
" I'm callin it that cuz Coco's scent smells like hot cocoa! " Goku chirped, " And Veggie's un-named tail smells like
marshmellows! " he tilted his head happily in Vegeta's direction, " Right Veggie? "
" ... " Vegeta twitched.
" ...Veggie? " Goku said cautiously, waving a hand infront of Vegeta's unblinking face.
:::" *sniffle* Aww Veggie, don't they look bee-u-ti-ful? " Goku said in awe as they stood in the eisle; the people
in the pews blurred out around them. The larger saiyajin's tail had on a wedding dress and Vegeta's tail had on a little suit
Vegeta twitched.
Goku smiled warmly at him, " I just know I'm gonna make the best ring bearer they could get! " he said, adjusting the
suit he was wearing and holding up the cases containing rings sized to fit on the tails, " And Veggie makes such a lovely
flower girl. "
" ? " Vegeta looked down at himself to see he too was wearing a fancy white dress, " WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHH
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!:::
" --HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! "
" AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! " Goku screamed in unison with him as he fell backward and hit the floor due
to Vegeta's sudden screaming. The ouji's heart was practically beating out of his chest.
" *pant* *pant* *pant*.. " Vegeta gasped for air as his eyeballs popped right out of their sockets. Chi-Chi walked
over to him and slapped him across the face. Vegeta froze as reality set back in. He sent a glare at Goku, " --AND I'M NOT
GONNA BE THE ONE WEARING THE DRESS!!! " he pointed angrily at Goku, then stormed off to the other side of the room.
" ...wha? " Goku blinked, utterly at a loss for words.
" Wow, so Vegeta's just as capable of mentally snapping as Chi-Chi is; given the right type of provoking. " Bulma
observed. Chi-Chi sent a warning glare at the scientist and Bulma laughed nervously, backing up.
" Uh, yah. So! What do you two suggest we do about this little 'situation'? " Bulma said happily.
" Make little outfits for our tails to wear when they get married! And we can have Dende perform the ceremony! " Goku
chirped.
" I'M NOT LETTING MY TAIL MARRY YOURS YOU LOONY PEASANT!! " Vegeta screamed from across the room.
Goku's bottom lip wobbled, " Aww.....oh well! " he instantly cheered up.
" You know Vegeta, if this all really bothers you that much, we can always cut the tails off. " Bulma suggested.
Both Goku and Vegeta froze on the spot, " NO WAY!!! " they yelled together, then looked at each other and
sweatdropped.
" CUT OFF MY TAIL, ARE YOU INSANE! I WAS WITHOUT MY TAIL FOR YEARS UNTIL RECENTLY! THERE'S NO WAY I'M GIVING UP THE
ONE DISTINCT BODY PART THAT DISTINGUISHES ME FROM YOU HUMANS!!! " Vegeta roared, holding his tail protectively.
" Yeah Bulma, I like my tail. It's such a real help when I'm fishing and I'd hate to kill it. " Goku pouted.
" Fine. Keep them. " Bulma sighed, " You have any better ideas? "
" How about we keep them apart! " Chi-Chi said in a suspiciously cheerful way.
" You're plotting something. " Vegeta narrowed his eyes at her.
" Hahaha, yes I am! "
" *snort* "
" Go-chan, what if we just keep you and the Ouji away from each other for a while. If your tails are apart from each
other long enough they'll probably forget they, *twitch* CARE for one another and everything can go back to normal. You know,
time heals all wounds, out of sight out of mind? "
" Absence makes the heart grow fonder. " Vegeta added in, smirking.
" It DOES? " Goku's eyes widened.
" Oh it does NOT! " Chi-Chi exclaimed, " That's just a blatant Ouji lie! "
" Oh really, does that mean that while Kakarrotto was gone and dead for 7 long years that you simply forgot about him
and didn't even care that he was gone. " Vegeta posed the question. Chi-Chi twitched.
" OF COURSE I DIDN'T STOP CARING ABOUT HIM! I MISSED GO-CHAN EVERY DAY!! "
" Well then, I guess that means I'm right. And you're wrong. "
" Ah------OOOOH! COME ON GOKU! We're going home! " Chi-Chi said, grabbing Goku and storming up out of the lab.
Bulma sighed, " There she goes again. "
" Oh don't worry, Kakarrotto will be back. " Vegeta snickered, then narrowed his eyes at a slightly nervous ouji tail
, " And while he's gone, I can teach YOU a little lesson about fraternizing with the peasants. "
" You really have an idea to get your tail to NOT care about Goku's? " Bulma said skeptically.
" Of course I do! You'd think by now you'd know me better. " Vegeta smirked at her, climbing the stairs, " Follow me
and I'll show you! "
Bulma sweatdropped, " Do I really have a choice? "
" Not really, no. "
She sighed, " Fine. I'm coming. But it better not be painful. I don't want you accidentally hurting yourself. "
" Ha! Nonsense! I get hurt all the time. " Vegeta brushed it off, " And now, TO THE LAB! " he said, dashing off.
Bulma blinked in surprise.
" YOU have a LAB?! "

END OF PART ONE!
Chuquita: And so ends part 1.
Vegeta: (cocks an eyebrow) Well this one was a little stranger than normal.
Chuquita: (grins) Heh, I know. I blame it on the combination of me starting school again and that I was using references for
the last two fics while I was writing them (the gt eps for "Lost in Space" and the comic I drew for "Doublemint") and since
I'm done using 'based on--' sources for the moment I have more creative control again.
Vegeta: (sweatdrops) You still went a little crazy with this one.
Chuquita: Eh, the crazyness levels should drop a little by part 2 or 3. By then I should be back in the normal routine of
things, plotline-wise.
Vegeta: Thank God.
Chuquita: (to audiance) OH! The Goggie episode aired on dba recently! Last Friday was also their 5th birthday so
Happy Birthday DBA!!
Goku: (blows little party-horn) *FWEEEP*!
Chuquita: Goggie's really funny in this one! He's definately got Veggie's laugh. But his actions seem like he's on a
sugar-high. (grins) I took a bunch 'a screenshots of him! Also as Nekoni pointed out, w/Goggie's voice Goku's voice remains
the same while Veggie's voice highers itself closer to Goku's. W/Jitto it's just the opposite. Goku's the one who adjusts his
voice. I gotta check movie 12 to see if Goggie's voice is higher in that one too.
Goku: (happily) Goggie and Ji-chan a-ppear in the next chapter!
Chuquita: That they do! (to audiance) After all, their tails are needed to translate Veggie and Goku's tails 'voices' to the
others.
Goku: Hee~ (his tail swings happily back and forth)
Chuquita: Also the new db episodes started! I'm not sure if they'll continue straight to the end though. (grins) But I'm so
happy cuz the monthly db mangas stopped RIGHT when chibi Goku and Piccolo Daimou were getting ready to fight. I bet that
episode's on Monday! I also saw the last episode where Son-kun and Chi-Chi get married!
Goku: YAY!
Chuquita: However, none of Son's friends were at the wedding.
Goku: (pouts) Awww...
Chuquita: Only the villagers from Chi-Chi's recently-burned-to-the-ground kingdom.
Vegeta: (snickers) Heh-heh, Onna's on fire.
Goku: Nuh-uh! It was Chi-chan's Toussan who was caught in the fire, and he had Chi-chan's wedding dress which used to be her
mom's. Chi-chan helped me save the day. Sorta like how Veggie helped me beat Buu...only Veggie doesn't try to pop my arm off
by squeezing it with his tremendous Veggie-strength the way Chi-chan used to.
Chuquita: And ironically they both wore the same navy blue color on their training suits.
Vegeta: Hai, however I would not have Kakarrotto searching the globe for some type of mystical fan to put the flames on
my castle for I wouldn't be offguard long enough for anybody to SET fire to my castle.
Goku: (confused) But Veggie's castle blew up already, didn't it?
Vegeta: (grumbles) No need to rub it in ya know.
Chuquita: Oh! I also got some of Doublemint's Manga on deviantart! I plan on putting some more pages up today. The manga
version's at chuquita.deviantart.com!
Vegeta: Today's End Corner sounds more like bits of news.
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) I know. But I got a bunch of lil things to report on anyways. I also saw a later db episode in which
while trying to find the fan they needed to put out the fire, Son-kun and Chi-Chi get tricked by this old lady who looks a
lot like she could be Kuririn's grandmother.
Vegeta: (looks over at Son)
Goku: (grinning cluelessly)
Vegeta: (flatly) Is it really that surprising?
Chuquita: (to Veggie) She tricks Son-kun into going to a nearby mountain to collect snow to put out the fire---
Vegeta: --which would OBVIOUSLY melt before Kakarrotto GOT anywhere NEAR the fire--
Chuquita: --correct.
Vegeta: Heh. (smirks)
Chuquita: And she tricked Chi-Chi into cleaning her overly-messy house and tricked her into thinking it was "pre-marriage
training".
Vegeta: (sighs) If Onna was only as gullible now as she was then...
Chuquita: It's actually pretty hilarious to see Chi-Chi's first reaction to a messy room. Not to mention the fact that she
broke nearly all the old lady's dishes while washing dishes for the first time.
Goku: Chi-chan doesn't let ME wash any of the dishes cuz she's afraid I will break them.
Vegeta: (sweatdrops) No kidding.
Chuquita: She seriously gets close to wanting to beat up the old lady for all the labor she's making her do at one point.
Vegeta: (snorts) Baka Onna. I wouldn't take orders from some old wrinkly 3-foot nose-less old woman just because she said
it was training.
Chuquita: Chi-Chi DID find the bansho fan though. The old lady gave it to her to sweep her backyard--which was really the
forest, unbeknowst to Chi-Chi.
Vegeta: (blinking) She really got Onna to believe the forest behind the house was really her backyard.
Chuquita: Yup.
Vegeta: WOW. That accomplishment is of a near kaka-level gullability!
Goku: ...huh? (tilts his head confusedly)
Chuquita: She seemed pretty normal until you landed on Earth.
Vegeta: (satisfied evil grin)
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) Veggie...
Goku: Haha! Chi-chan says she had lost the ablility to trust other people thanks to "that evil little Ouji".
Vegeta: (smirks) Well then my work here is done.
Goku: ...
Vegeta: (glances at Goku) PARTIALLY done, anyway.
Goku: Heeheehee!
Chuquita: And lastly, one of the people who reviewed the last chapter for "Lost in Space" left a HUGE review and sent a
request/threat to Veggie here!
Vegeta: (face-faults) HOW CAN YOU REQUEST AND THREATEN AT THE SAME TIME!?
Chuquita: I have no idea.
Vegeta: ... (groan)
Chuquita: Anyways, Cathowl, Scott, and Kakarrotto (all three sharing the same account I assume); requested/threatened Veggie
that if he doesn't give Son-kun a kiss they will reveal to Son-kun reasons why Veggie and Chi-Chi fight over him.
Vegeta: Hn. (narrows his eyes, then pulls something out of his pocket and places it in Goku's hand) Here you go, Kaka-chan.
Goku: (holds up a hersey's kiss) WHEE! CANDY! (unwraps it and tosses the candy in his mouth)
Chuquita: (sweatdrops)
Vegeta: (smirks) There's more than one way to solve a problem, you know.
Chuquita: Uh-huh.
Vegeta: Anything else?
Chuquita: (uneasily) The word "smooch" WAS also in there.
Vegeta: (thinks)
Goku: (grins at Veggie w/chocolate-covered face)
Vegeta: (sweatdrops) HOW COULD YOU HAVE POSSIBLY GOTTEN THAT MESSY FROM ONE LITTLE CANDY!?
Goku: (blinks) (happily) I dunnooooooo~!
Vegeta: (twitch) (thinks some more) ...fine. (blows a smooch in the general direction of left)
(Chu & Goku sweatdrop)
Vegeta: Skin-to-skin contact was also never mentioned.
Goku: Veggie I am not diseased.
Vegeta: (sarcasm) SURE you're not. *cough*kaka-germs*cough*
Goku: (larger sweatdrop)
Chuquita: Well, that about wraps up part 1! See you in part 2 everybody, probably next Monday!
Goku: (chirps) Buhbye! So long!
Vegeta: Bye.
Goku: (pats Veggie on the shoulder) (happiliy) And remember! A Veggie a day keeps the doctor a-way!
Vegeta: (sweatdrops)
