The Lightbulb of Power: Chapter One
Disclaimer: I do not own Dragon Ball Z or any of it's characters, although I wish I did.
Linkthesecond: Ah yes, Dragon Ball Z....Oh hello! Welcome to my story! All of this is
loosely based on the joke: How many Saiyans does it take to screw in a lightbulb? (The answer will be
revealed at the end of the 3rd chapter). Then this happened. I thought it was pretty funny, so I decided
to publish it. This is my first fic, so be nice about it. And now, on with the show!

"Goku! Breakfast!"
Goku suddenly sprang awake at the mention of food. He started rushing downstairs
which for Goku, was a task easily accomplished.
"Morning Chi Chi! So where's breakfast?" Goku said as he appeared in the kitchen.
Suddenly, Chi Chi starts giggling. "Chi Chi? What's so funny?" Goku asked.
"Morining Dad, morning Mum" Gohan said as he paddled into the kitchen. When he
looks at his Dad, he also starts giggling. "Guys, what is so funny? Goku asked again. Under her
giggling Chi Chi managed to say, "Goku, you're not wearing anything!".
Goku looks down and realizes his mistake. "Eh-hehe, errr give me a second". Surely
enough, a second later, Goku is back in the kitchen fully dressed.
"What are we waiting for?" Goku asked. "Let's eat!". Goku starts wolfing down his
breakfast. Chi Chi used to condemn him for this, but soon realized that he wouldn't be the same
if he had better manners.
After breakfast was finished, Chi Chi said "Alright Goku i need you to-"
"Go on an adventure?" Goku said, interrupting Chi Chi.
"No Goku, not an adventure"Chi Chi said. "What I need you to do is-"
"Fight some bad guys?" Goku interrupted hopefully.
"NO!" Chi Chi yelled. "Goku, what i need you to do is-"
"Train!" said an inconspicuous voice. Everyone stops talking and looks for the source
of the noise. Suddenly, Vegeta's head pops-up in the kitchen window. Everyone starts staring at
Vegeta. "What, was it something I said?" asked Vegeta. Everyone continues to stare directly at
Vegeta. "Fine!" Vegeta says in frustration. "It's obvious I'm not wanted here, so I'll just go-"
"Train?" Goku, Gohan, and Chi Chi say mockingly toward Vegeta.
"Yes! Tra- hey wait a minute!" Getting angry, Vegeta rushs at the window, hits it, and starts
sliding down it. Goku and family start laughing as Vegeta stalks off.
"So Chi Chi, what was it you wanted me to do?" Goku asked. "I need you to change the
lightbulb in the garage" Chi Chi blurted out. "Is that all?" he asked "Well, i guess i could make
that an adventure.." "NO Goku do NOT make this an adventure" Chi Chi said. " Aww but Chi Chi..."
complained Goku. "No "buts" Goku! Just take this lightbulb and screw it in the socket! Please!"she
pleaded.
Chi Chi then hands Goku a lightbulb that, oddly enough, looks alot like a Dragonball. "Oooohhhh
shiiiinyyy"Goku said in awe. Chi Chi said ,"Goku that's just the light reflecting off it". "This lightbulb is puls-
ating with awesome power."Goku said, ignoring what Chi Chi had said. "Goku, just go screw it in." ,she said.
"Okay!"Goku replied as he starts prancing away, singing "Adventure time adventure time.....".
"I sure hope he doesn't somehow kill himself..."Chi Chi said in worry. "Aw c'mon Mom,"Gohan
replied. "What could Dad possibly do to hurt himself?"
As if to answer his question, they hear a thumping noise, followed by "Ow! Stupid door!"
"That.", Chi Chi replied.
Then they hear "KA-ME-HA-ME-HAAAAAAAA!"
"And that"she said in an exasperated tone.
"I'll go help him"said Gohan.
Cue DBZ Commentator voice: Will Goku ever screw in the lightbulb? Will Gohan get there in time to help him?
Will I ever get laid? Find out, on the next episode of The Lightbulb of Power!
