Quote of the Week: -from "The Legacy of Goku II" gba game.
Digi-Veggie: (in Son home) (walks up to Chi-Chi)
Digi-Chi-Chi: I wish you people would just leave my husband alone.
Chuey's Corner:
Vegeta: (grinning widely)
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) Even in a 32bit-state you can still drive people crazy.
Vegeta: (still grinning) The wonders of being me.
Goku: (confused) I am not sure whether to congradulate little Veggie or bee-rate him.
Vegeta: (smirks) Kakarrotto, you don't even know what the definition of "berate" is!
Goku: I do too!.....*blinks*.....no, I don't. (frowns sadly) (perks up) But I DO know how to congradulate! (shakes Veggie's
hand) Congradulations little Veggie!!
Chuquita: (happily) Speaking of "congradulations", this is my 75th Fanfic!! *grins*
Goku: (toots little new years horn) HOO-RAY!!
Vegeta: (face-faults) We've been doing this for THAT LONG!?
Chuquita: Well, sorta. (still very happy). My page doesn't have it's official anniversary until November 25th though. At
first I had no idea how I was going to celebrate getting up to number 75, but I think I've decided to put it in the form of
a future fic! (Not that we're not going to celebrate in today's Corner). Here's my idea! I'm going to take one of my older
fics--I haven't decided which one yet--and retype the fic w/the same plotline only using the characters the way they are now
instead of how they acted back then! I'm looking for one that never would've happened the same way if it had happened at this
point in the timeline. If anyone in the audiance has a suggestion for which fic, I'll be glad to hear it!
Goku: Heehee, redo!
Chuquita: (to Son) You know this could be a lot of fun if I get it just right.
Goku: That it can! (big grin)
Vegeta: (twitches) I have a bad feeling about this.
Chuquita: Anyway! (changing subject) Today's fic has to do with game shows, exotic locations, and a brand new car!
Vegeta: (smirks) Who WOULDN'T want a brand new car?
Goku: (happily) I WOULD!
Vegeta: (flatly) Kakarrotto with the way YOU drive I wouldn't trust you with a brand new tricycle.
Goku: (laughs) Of course you wouldn't trust me! I don't know how to ride a tricycle, silly Veggie! (pats Veggie on the back)
Vegeta: (sweatdrops)
Chuquita: Originally I was planning to get this one written in the summer (when I was able to watch said game-show daily) but
I think it'll do just fine now too, seeing as I've been dying to get this fic typed up. Veggie wins a nice new big boat!
Vegeta: (smirks) Care to go fishing, Kakarrotto?
Goku: (grins) I wanna ride on Veggie's new boat!
Chuquita: And Chi-Chi wins a brand new car!
Vegeta: (snickers) Which won't last very long with Kakarrotto driving it.
Goku: (doesn't hear him) (pondering) HEY! MAYBE I can drive Chi-chan's BRAND NEW CAR on Veggie's BRAND NEW BOAT! That way I
don't have to choose!
Vegeta: (grumbles) Baka.
Chuquita: If only all choices were that easy. Actually I saw on the news recently that in England they came out with this car
that turns into a boat when it's on the water!
Goku: Haha! FUSION!
Chuquita: (pats Veggie on the shoulder) And I would like to apologize to poor "little Veggie" for causing him such trama in
the last fic with a BRAND NEW CHAIR!
(random people wheel out giant dark red wheelie chair)
Vegeta: (beams eagerly at chair) (smirks at Chu) You felt bad for me, didn'tcha, Chu?
Chuquita: (nods) Yes Veggie, I did.
Vegeta: (grins) That's fine with me! (hops onto giant chair and pulls out his royal armor, crown, and scepter) HAIL ME,
KAKARROTTO!! (points scepter down at Goku from up on the giant chair)
Goku: (sweatdrops) ?
Chuquita: (even larger sweatdrop than Son) Maybe I should've just given him some candy or somethin instead.
Goku: (shouts up to him) LITTLE VEGGIE WHAT ARE YOU TALKING A-BOUT?
Vegeta: I WANT YOU TO FALL TO YOUR KNEES AND BOW BEFORE ME KAKARROTTO!
Goku: (confused) ....WHY!
Vegeta: (frustrated) BECAUSE I'M YOUR OUJI, THAT'S WHY!!
Goku: Doesn't make much sense to me, Veggie.
Vegeta: (pulls a double take, looks to his left to see Goku seated next to him on the giant chair) *twitch* Kakarrotto what
are you doing up here!!
Goku: (smiles) It's MUCH easier to hear what Veggie is saying from up here :)
Vegeta: (twitches) BUT THAT DEFEATS THE WHOLE PURPOSE!!!
Goku: Little Veggies shouldn't yell like that. It's bad for your voicebox. (thinking) And if Veggie couldn't talk...(sweetly)
~**Then he'd have to communicate using that CUTE lil Veggie-handwriting of his that looks like a lil baby's handwriting!**~
Vegeta: (eye flinches) I'd rather not...
Chuquita: SON-KUN! (calling up to him) YOU OR VEGGIE CARE TO INTRODUCE THE CHAPTER!!
Goku: (smiles) I think Veggie should do it since he deserves it after the emotional stress he went through last time! Isn't
that right, **winner**?
Vegeta: (twitches at Son) Kakarrotto--
Goku: (glomps him) HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM?
Vegeta: (bright red) (chokes out) Here's....part 1.
Summary: After Chi-Chi goes on "The Price is Right" she ends up on the final showcase playing against none-other than Veggie!
Due to the Ouji's lack of knowledge about prices, Chi-Chi not only wins but hits the exact number and gets both her and
Veggie's showcase. Now she and the other Sons are on a four-person trip to a tropical island. Of course, evading Veggie is
never that easy! What happens when Veggie decides to use his brand new super-boat tag along? What does Goku learning quite a
number of exotic dances have to do with any of this? All that and a hurricane with Chi-Chi's name on it!
Chuquita: You know the title of this fic is named after one of "The Price is Right" games! Its the one where you have to get
out of the middle circle by choosing one of three paths and getting all the prices matched up!
Goku: Hee! Pink yellow & blue! Just like my compact oozaru colors!!
Vegeta: (still glowing an even brighter red) Wahhhhh~~~
*****************************************************************************************************************************
" Wow! Look at all the pretty lights, Chi-chan! " Goku said in awe as he, Chi-Chi, Gohan, and Goten sat in the
game-show audiance.
" See! Isn't it good to get away from home with the entire family for once, Goku! " Chi-Chi smiled, feeling much
less stressed than she had in a long while.
" Uh-huh! And the best part is that Chi-chan is in a good mood! " Goku beamed.
" AND there's no Ouji! " Chi-Chi laughed happily, then face-faulted to see a slightly hurt look on Goku's face.
" Little Veggie just wanted to be alone for a lil while, Chi-chan. That is understandable. " the large saiyajin said
sadly.
" Of course he wants to be ALONE, Goku. You scared him witless with that whole tail thing. " she said, proud of him.
" But it was the tails fault, n--not mine!....You don't think Veggie'd be mad at ME over it, do you? " he started to
get worried.
" Somehow I seriously doubt that he could get mad at YOU, Goku. " she rolled her eyes, then grinned, " Besides you're
so hard to stay mad at! " Chi-Chi cheerfully gave him a squeeze.
Goku eagerly turned to Gohan on his left, " I think Chi-chan is being *nice* to me again because she's got her hair
back in the ponytail which she hasn't worn it in since she used to be *nice* to me ALL THE TIME! "
Gohan sweatdropped, " Uh-huh. "
" Who's our next contestant,Randy! " the host said on the gameshow floor.
The camera swiveled around the audiance, " Well Bob, it's Son Chi-Chi! " the announcer exclaimed.
" AAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!! " Chi-Chi let out a shriek of joy and stumbled out of her seat. She hugged onto Goku tightly,
then excitedly ran down the steps to the contestants row and replaced the previous third contestant, " OH MY GOD THIS MUST
BE LUCKY DAY!! "
" YAY! WE GET TO PLAY A GAME! " Goku cheered.
Chi-Chi sweatdropped and looked over to see Goku standing beside her, " Ah, Go-chan. I'm, the only one who plays the
game. Your name wasn't called. You'll have to sit back down. "
Goku pouted, " But I want to play with you when you are in such a good mood which rarely happens ever anymore. "
" Well I'll stay in a "good mood" longer if you just go sit back down and watch from the audiance! " she said,
annoyied.
" Awww... " Goku sniffled and waddled back to his seat.
" Now tell our contestants what they'll be bidding on in this round,Randy! " Bob Barker called out to the announcer.
" It's a brand new deluxe refriderator! " the wall spun slowly around to reveal a very large fridge, " It's the
Penguin Extra-Wide refridgerator featuring the latest and largest food containments on the market. The freezer holds it's own
built-in ice-machine and water dispenser! "
" CHI-CHAN'S GONNA WIN US A FRIDGE!! " Goku squealed from the audiance, " TODAY IS THE BEST DAY EVER! "
" SHHH!! " Gohan embarassingly tried to quiet him down.
" Today is the best day ever. " Goku said again, only in a whisper-soft voice.
" Chi-Chi, what do you bid. " Bob asked her.
Chi-Chi examined the fridge from where she stood, " $750, Bob. "
" $800. "
" $679, Bob. "
" $1000 dollars, Bob. "
" And the price of the refridgerator is, $742 dollars Chi-Chi is our winner! " Bob said.
" AHHH!! HAHAHAHA! TAKE THAT OUJI!! " Chi-Chi pumped her fists in the air and happily followed him onto the set.
" Now Chi-Chi you've won the fridge, would you like to see what else we've got for you to try and go home with
today? " Bob held the microphone up to her.
" I'd love to see it, Bob! " Chi-Chi smiled.
" We hope you'll have a great trip back because you'll be driving home in style in your BRAND NEW CAR!! "
" AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! " Chi-Chi exclaimed, ecstatic as they revealed the stylish-looking red car with the moon-roof.
" OOOOH, moonroof! " Goku grinned from the audiance, " I have never been in a car with a MOONROOF bee-fore! " he said
in awe.
Chi-Chi grabbed the microphone, " I HOPE YOU'RE WATCHING RIGHT NOW OUJI BECAUSE YOU'RE ABOUT TO GET A DOUBLE-DOSE OF
EMOTIONAL HURT!! WOOOO!! " she cheered.
" CHI-CHAN! DO NOT MAKE VEGGIE FEEL EVEN WORSE! HE COULD GO INTO A DEEP VEGGIEPRESSION AND NEVER COME OUT OF IT! "
Goku exclaimed, dying to hug the little ouji in comfort even though he was miles away.
Chi-Chi twitched, " Fine then. I'm sure he's not even watching tv right now anyway. "
" YOU'RE JUST SAYING THAT!! " Goku exclaimed.
" Ugh. " Chi-Chi groaned, then turned back to the host and cheerfully handed back the microphone, " Here you go Bob!"
" Uh, right. " Barker blinked, " Now Chi-Chi, if you've seen the show before-- "
" --I watch it every morning, Bob! " she grinned at the audiance & gave a victory sign.
" --then you'll recognize the game we're going to play! " he said as he led her towards a large red sign with five
numbers on it, " Chi-Chi, the price of that car over there is NOT, 22,578 dollars. Every number on that board except the
first one is either one lower or one higher than it should be. Now if you get at least one number right you'll get a chance
to try again and change whichever number you feel should be changed. Are you ready to play? "
" YOU BET! " she pumped one fist in the air.
" Chi-Chi do you think the second number is higher or lower than 2. "
" Higher. " she said confidently. Bob pushed the number up to 3.
" Is the third number higher or lower than 5? "
Chi-Chi looked at the audiance who were all screaming so many different things it blended together in a gigantic
gob of muddled screams. Chi-Chi sweatdropped.
" Higher. "
" Is the fourth number higher or lower than 7. "
" Lower. "
" And is the fifth number higher or lower than 8? "
" Mmm, higher. "
" There. " Bob finished, then held the microphone towards her, " Now Chi-Chi, if you're right and the price of that
car is 23,469, then you win the car. If even one number is right, you get to continue and try again. "
" MOON-ROOF!! " Goku cheered.
Chi-Chi sweatdropped.
" Now ask the audiance, "do I have at least one number right?". "
" Audiance, do I have at least one number right? "
" *DING*!! " the 'you-are-correct' ding came from around her. Chi-Chi grinned.
" Audiance, do I have at least two numbers right? "
" *DING*!! "
Chi-Chi took a deep breath to try and keep calm, " Audiance, do I have at least three numbers right? "
" *DING*!! "
" AHHH-HA! Audiance, do I have at least FOUR numbers right? "
" *DING*!! "
" Haha..hahaha...AUDIANCE!! " she shouted excitedly, " DO I HAVE ALL FIVE NUMBERS RIGHT? "
" *DING*DING*DING*DING*DING*!!!! "
" AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! "
" CHI-CHAN WINS!!! " Goku exclaimed, teleporting beside her and giving her a quick hug. The saiyajin dashed over to
the car and stuck his head in the moon-roof, " OOOooooh, I am gonna like this 'BRAND NEW CAR', Chi-chan! " he nodded happily,
pulling his head back out.
" Now Chi-Chi we want you to go wait backstage with the other two contestants and when we come back you get a chance
to spin the big wheel. " Bob patted her on the shoulder.
" HAHA! I CAN'T BELIEVE IT I FINALLY WON SOMETHING!! " she squealed, " THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! " Chi-Chi said, then
happily dashed off backstage.
Goku cheerfully waddled over behind Bob and waved mindlessly at the camera with his head tilted and a big smile on
his face.
" We'll be back after a word from these sponsers! " Bob said, pointing off at the camera. The commercials began to
roll. Bob looked over his shoulder and sweatdropped to see Goku still waving, " Ah, Mr. Son, we're running commercials now.
No one can see you. "
" Oh. " Goku frowned, " Back to my seat then! " he chirped, then teleported off there.
Bob shook his head, surprised and confused by the talent, " ? "
" So THAT'S where they've been the past couple days. " Mirai sweatdropped as he, Gogeta, and Vejtto sat on the long
living room couch infront of the tv.
" Hear that Jitto? WE get to ride in a BRAND NEW CAR! " Gogeta grinned.
" Yeah but it's not Toussan's car, it's Chi-Chi's. " Vejitto pointed out.
" Ohhh... " the younger fusion pouted as the the commercials continued to run.
" *BA-BOOMF*! " one of the doors upstairs flung open and out marched a very victorious-looking Vegeta.
" Vegeta! So you finally came out of your room! " Bulma said happily, " NOW WHAT THE HECK WERE YOU DOING IN THERE FOR
THE LAST TWO DAYS YOU HAD US ALL WORRIED SICK ABOUT YOU!!! "
The ouji leisurely rested his arm against the handrail that led to the steps, " I've blocked it out. " he said simply
and with a smirk on his face.
" Huh? " Bulma blinked.
" I have successfully, and after much mental training, blocked the entire day out of my mind! " the ouji grinned.
" You--can do that? "
" Of course I can! I am the great and powerful saiyajin no ouji! There is NOTHING I can't accomplish! BWAHAHA! " he
laughed.
" His ego's inflated, he must've been able to have done it. " Bulma sweatdropped.
Vegeta held up his pointer finger, " However it'll be a good couple more days before I have that terrifying incident
so blocked out of my mind that I can never access it again, SO I desire that all things strongly reminiscent of said horror
be placed out of my sight and reach. " he explained happily.
Gogeta and Vejitto looked down at the leftover chocolate cake on their paper plates, then promptly shoved their large
slices into their mouth in unison and ki-blasted their plates into oblivion. Mirai sweatdropped at the fusions now puffed-up
cheeks.
" Hey Toussan guess what! " Gogeta beamed, " Kaasan and Onna are on "The Price is Right" and Onna won a car but it
has a MOON-ROOF! "
" That means the ceiling has a window you can stick your head through! " Vejitto grinned widely.
" Really... " the ouji pondered for a bit, " And, Kakarrotto is there? "
" Yup! " Vejitto nodded.
" Well then, I'm off! " Vegeta cracked his knuckles and headed for the front door.
" Where do you think you're going NOW?! " Bulma exclaimed, " Vegeta you finally make an appearance and you're
suddenly going off again?! Do you even have a plot as to how you're going to do what you're going to do?! "
Vegeta sighed, " No, I don't. But it's still best if I get back into the routine of things. I can't let myself slip
you know! " he smirked as he opened the door.
Bulma slid to the side of him, " And you're SURE you're mentally stable again? You're not going to go into anymore
terrified-screaming fits, right? "
" What terrified-screaming fits? " Vegeta blinked, confused.
Bulma bit her lip, " Well, I guess that means you're oh-kay. But take it easy for the next few days, alright Vegeta?
I don't want you coming back here an hour from now shaking and sputtering about Goku. "
" Kakarrotto does not frighten me. " the ouji folded his arms proudly.
" Uh-huh. " Bulma said flatly.
" See you after the commercial break. " Vegeta snickered, then teleported out of sight.
Bulma shook her head as she walked over to the couch and sat down along with the other three couch potatoes, " I have
a bad feeling about this. "
" ONE MINUTE TO ON-AIR, PEOPLE! " one of the workers in the studio shouted over the loudspeaker. Goku happily sat in
his seat, swinging his legs back and forth.
" Doodoodoodoodoododo! " the large saiyajin sang cheerfully to himself.
" Having fun? " a deeper voice said from beside him in the chair Chi-Chi had been sitting at.
Goku's head instantly to his left and he let out a squeal of pure unadulterated joy, " MYLITTLEVEGGIE!! " he reached
over to grab the ouji only to have Vegeta shriek and hold his hands out in protest.
" NO! NO HUGGING!!! " Vegeta screamed in panic, " N--not yet anyway. " he calmed down a bit.
" Veggie still sore about it? " Goku pouted.
" I am not sore about anything Kakarrotto for you see I have blocked everything that happened to me on that previous
day out of my mind to avoid from LOSING my mind. " Vegeta explained, " You see right now my brain's sorta like a chunk of raw
meat which, once cooked, will cause all remaining juices to evaporate and thus freeing me from what little side-effects still
remain. " he nodded, " Do you understand, Kakarrotto? "
Goku stared at him in utter confusion, " Uh, something about meat? "
Vegeta sweatdropped, " Nevermind. Just don't hug me for a while, alright? "
" Oh-kay! " Goku gave him a thumbs-up sign, " ...can I still shake your hand? "
" NO! " Vegeta shrieked again, pulling both hands away and shivering.
" Can I touch any part of you? " Goku pouted.
" You can, pat my head. " Vegeta said cautiously.
" Awww! " Goku said in awe, doing so, " Who's a good little Veggie, you are! " he chirped.
Vegeta twitched, " What do I look like! A pet! "
" We're back with "The Price is Right" and now our first three winners are going to get a chance to spin the big
wheel! " Bob Barker said as he walked over to the wheel where Chi-Chi and the other two contestants were standing. " Joe you
get to spin first. " he said to the man, " You know the rules. You have to get a number closest to 100 without going over. "
The first contestant reached up to grab the wheel and spun it the wheel down hard.
Vegeta watched as the wheel spun, " He spun it too fast. 45. " the ouji snorted.
Goku looked over at Vegeta curiously.
" And Joe you have, 45 cents. " Bob said as the wheel slowed to a halt on the number, " Would you like to spin
again? "
" No thanks Bob. " the man walked over and stood in the winner's spot with the number he had gotten alighted above
him.
Goku gasped, " Little Veggie can tell what it is going to land on just by how hard the person has spun the wheel! "
" They're spinning it blindly. You have to account for how long the ticker is at each spot and how many there are
and then count that in with how fast you spin it. If you were to calculate it correctly you could easily hit the 100 marker
many times in row. " Vegeta said, watching the wheel.
" Wow, little Veggie is SO SMART! " Goku clasped his hands together happily.
" Why thank you Kakarrotto. I am aren't I? " Vegeta felt his chest puff out with pride.
" Now Chi-Chi you have to beat 45 cents. Remember, if you get 100 on your first try you're automatically in the
showcase and you get an additional spin to win up to 1,000 dollars. " Bob explained to her.
" Showcase? What's a showcase? " Vegeta cocked an eyebrow.
" Hee! " Goku plopped a hand on Vegeta's head, " Silly little Veggie! That is when the two finalists square off
against each other for the really really big prizes! Like a bunch of trips or a set of furniture or a bed or a truck or one
of those neat lil electric golf cars! " he laughed.
Chi-Chi spun the wheel.
" 60. " Vegeta stated, then realized Goku's hand was still ontop of his head, and, twitching, promptly pushed it off.
" And Chi-Chi has 60 cents. Would you like to spin again? " he asked her.
" Yes Bob, I would! " Chi-Chi said, then did so. She leaned over towards the microphone, " OH! And I'd like to say hi
to my dad who's watching at home, my husband Goku who's in the audiance along with our sons Gohan and Goten--hi honey! " she
waved happily to Goku, who waved back.
" Hi Onna! " a voice called cheerfully from her seat. Chi-Chi almost had a heart-attack when she saw Vegeta was now
plopped in the chair she had been using next to Goku.
" YOU!? WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU DOING HERE!!!! " she shrieked.
" Oh, just sight-seeing, you know. " Vegeta smirked shrugging it off like it was nothing.
" Really. Sight-seeing. " Chi-Chi said dryly, " And in a studio audiance nonetheless. "
" Exactly. " the ouji snickered, " I try to be creative in my, 'sight-seeing' endevors, you know. " he said, then
patted Goku on the shoulder, " In't that right Kakay? "
" I luv my Veggie, Chi-chan! " Goku chirped, grabbing the ouji and hugging him tightly. Vegeta's entire body burst
into a bright-red color and he started going into frightened spasms while trying to escape from Goku's tight hold.
" And Chi-Chi has 40 cents! That gives you a dollar Chi-Chi! You're going to be in our showcase! " Bob said to
Chi-Chi, who whipped around to see she had indeed gotten 40 cents.
" Haha, HAHAHA!! " Chi-Chi laughed excitedly and exited off-stage.
" We'll be back when we pick another contestant from our studio audiance to play for the chance to win more amazing
prizes on the second half of "The Price is Right"! " he said as he left the stage in the other direction.
" Wow, isn't Chi-chan LUCKY, Veggie? " Goku said in awe.
" ... " Vegeta blinked, still glowing bright red. His mind now a complete blank.
" MMMMM, here Veggie, you sit back down in your little Veggie-sized chair now. " Goku happily plopped Vegeta back in
his seat. Vegeta's head tilted to one side. His body temperature started to cool down and he shook his head wildly to cool
himself off even more.
" KAKARROTTO WHAT DID I TELL YOU EARLIER ABOUT HUGGING ME!! " he exclaimed, exasperated, " I ALMOST HAD A FLASHBACK
BACK THERE!! "
" Sorry Veggie. I did not know that 'the incident' had caused so much e-motional trama to Veggie's lil brain! " Goku
apologized, worried about him.
" Yeah, well, neither did I. " Vegeta grumbled, " But I'll be boiled alive before I let that 'incident' try and alter
MY feelings. "
" ... " Goku paused for a moment, " Heehee, boiled veggie-tables. "
Vegeta sweatdropped.
" Oh! Did Veggie see Chi-chan is going to be in the showcase while his little Veggiebody was all glowing warm? " Goku
said, changing the subject.
" SHE WHAT?! " he gawked.
" Uh-huh! Chi-chan got 40 extra cents on her second turn while I was hugging little Veggie so she gets to be in the
showcase and win lots of prizes! That is unless the person she is playing against in the showcase beats her. " Goku said,
thinking outloud.
" Hmmm... " Vegeta smirked at the empty seat in contestants row while rubbing his hands together, " Kakarrotto, I'll
be right back. I'm going to pay the announcer a visit. " he hopped out of his chair and left the audiance.
Goku pouted, " Do not be gone long little Veggie!! I'LL MISS YOU!!! "
Vegeta sweatdropped, " He acts like I'm going away forever, baka. "
" HEHHHHH~~ ! " Vegeta grinned widely as he proudly marched back to Chi-Chi's seat, now wearing a nametag with his
first name on it; the sticker resembling the ones the rest of the audiance wore, " Hey Kakarrotto, check it out! " he pointed
to the sticker.
" OOOH! Veggie is now an o-fficial member of the audiance! HOORAY! " Goku cheered, then poked Vegeta's sticker. The
ouji's face instantly burst into bright red.
" WAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! " Vegeta screamed and quickly batted Goku's arm away. The little ouji panted heavily, " I SAID
CUT IT OUT!! HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO BLOCK OUT SOME MIND-NUMBING REVELATION ON MY PART WITH YOU TOUCHING RANDOM PARTS OF MY BODY
LIKE THAT!! "
" If Veggie is trying to block something out that has to do with me, then why did he come to visit me? " Goku looked
confused.
" Because in order for me to completely block out "the incident", I need to achieve the realm of normalcy I'm used to
dealing with. " he said, trying to calm down.
" Boy Veggie's using his big words today. " Goku observed, " Wow you must be all jittery on the inside and trying to
feel better by using all the super-smart words in you little Veggie-brain, huh Veggie? "
" That's, part of it. " Vegeta said uneasily, then sighed, " It's gonna take a week before my nerves are done being
shot. AND IT'S ALL BECAUSE OF YOU AND--and things I don't like to talk about. " he looked away.
" Awww... " Goku said, feeling bad for him. He rubbed the little ouji's back. Vegeta's body instantly shot at
attention, " There there lil-lil Vedge'ums. I just want you to know that whatever you're going through inside that lil
Veggie-head of yours that I promise to help get you through it because I luv you SOOOOOO much! "
" .......*twitch*.. " Vegeta twitched, bright red again.
" Uh, Toussan? I don't, really think that's helping him. " Gohan sweatdropped, pointing out the redness.
Goku looked over at Vegeta, " OH! " he instantly stopped rubbing and pulled his hand away, " So sorry Veggie! That's
the normal reaction I'm used to doing. I'm so sorry. "
" ....'salright..... " Vegeta squeaked out, " Not you're fault.....you're not the one who had the revelation.... "
" AND WE'RE BACK WITH THE SECOND HALF OF THE PRICE IS RIGHT!! " the announcer declared over the loudspeakers.
" Wha--huh? " Vegeta blinked, then shook the redness out of his face, " Heh-heh, showtime! " he rubbed his hands
together menacingly.
" Hmm? " Goku tilted his head at the ouji, confused.
" Who's our next contestant,Randy? "
" Why it's, Vegeta Oujisama! Come on down!! " the announcer said.
" WHAT?! " Chi-Chi fell over backstage, " NO WAY! YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING?! HIM HERE?! NOW?! B--BUT HE'S SUPPOSED TO
BE BACK AT HIS HOUSE LOSING HIS SANITY! HOW CAN HE BE HERE?! " she gawked as she watched the show by peaking out from around
backstage. Vegeta proudly stood up and strided in a true royal manner down the steps while Goku applauded and cheered the
little ouji like crazy, " Go-chan didn't cheer like that for me. " she pouted stubbornly, then turned back to Vegeta, " He
looks perfectly back to normal. Like it didn't effect him in the least. HOW CAN HE BE SO CALM!? "
Vegeta stopped lightly on the last step, then teleported to his place in contestants row, formerly Chi-Chi's. The
rest of the audiance oohed and ahhed at him and they along with his fellow contestants applauded the trick. Vegeta bowed
gracefully to them.
" ERRRRRR... " Chi-Chi fumed backstage, " YOU EVIL LITTLE OUJI WHY THE HECK ARE YOU HERE!! " she screamed out at him.
" I told you before, sight-seeing. However it appears that now I'm playing in the gameshow with my fellow contestants
. " Vegeta said smoothly.
" OOOH! " Chi-Chi turned her back to him and folded her arms. She froze when something hit her, ::The Ouji's never
seen this game-show before...he won't know what to do, not to mention how much the various products in this show cost! Heck
he spends so much time in the gravity room he practically uses his credit cards to buy all that stuff he uses. There's no way
he could get past the first bidding, and even if he does he'll probably break the wheel once he gets there. There's now way
I'd end up facing off against him! Heh-heh!:: " HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAAAAAAAAAA! "
" Umm, Mrs. Son? "
" Ah-- " Chi-Chi sweatdropped in the middle of her maniacal laugh, " Er, yes? " she said nervously to the worker.
" We need you to stay backstage for now alright? If you want to watch the show there's a contestants room with a tv
in it. It's down the hall and to your right. " he directed her.
" Um, thank you. Ah-haha. " Chi-Chi said, embarassed as she headed to said room and turned the tv on. Then sat down
on the chair infront of it and watched intently on the screen.
" What do we have up for bid this time,Randy? " Bob asked.
" Well Bob it's a new pair of WATER-SKIES! " he said as one of the walls turned around to reveal the item, " This
pair of his and hers water-skies are perfect for outdoor fun, whether it's at the lake or at the ocean, BlueSkys Water-skies
are a wonderful addition to your vacation. "
" I want to water-ski!! " Gogeta said excitedly as he watched the tv.
" Shhh! Toussan hasn't won yet! " Vejitto said, turning up the volume.
" Mr. Oujisama, your bid please. " Barker said to him.
" Uhh... " Vegeta blinked for a moment, staring at the skies, " Geez does Bulma have any of those at home? " he
mumbled to himself, racking his brain. He folded his arms, then nodded confidently, " One dollar! " the ouji said cheerfully.
Gohan sweatdropped, " I hope he's seen this show before and is using the 1 dollar trick in hopes that everyone else
is going to bid over. But normally when somebody says 1 dollar it's AFTER they've heard everyone else's bid. If that's not it
then he's as clueless to prices just as bad as Toussan is! "
" Hey I can price things! " Goku pouted.
" $600. "
" $650. "
" $701, Bob. "
" And the price of the water-skies is, $590 VEGETA IS THE WINNER! " Bob pointed the card he was holding at the ouji.
" WHOOO!! " Vegeta cheered, " Truer words were never spoken! " he eagerly clasped his hands together and walked onto
the set.
" That's it. Destiny hates me again. " Chi-Chi whimpered in shock, " CURSE YOU OUJI!!! "
" The game you're going to be playing today Vegeta is Plinko. " Bob started.
" Plinko? " the little ouji blinked.
" OH BOY I LUV PLINKO! " Goku squealed from beside him. Vegeta pulled a double-take to see Goku standing next to him.
" Ah, Kakarrotto? " Vegeta sweatdropped.
" OH! It is alright little Veggie I'll be quiet. " Goku said, then made a zipping motion across his mouth and closed
it shut, a big, entertained smile still on his face.
" Now Vegeta, in Plinko you have a chance to win up to $100,000 dollars! " Bob said.
" That's more money than Onna's car was worth! " Vegeta beamed, then grinned at the camera, " Hear that Onna~~! "
Chi-Chi twitched from the other room.
" We'll start you out with one plinko chip. This chip is placed at the top of the maze on the wall over there. Once
you drop the chip it will roll down through the maze and land in one of containers at the bottom. You have a chance at
winning 50 dollars, 100 dollars, 500 dollars, 100,000 dollars, " he pointed to the sole middle container, " And to either
side of the 100,000 dollar cup is a "Lose All" slot in which you won't gain any money and lose whatever you have depending on
if you have amassed some money in the plinko game previous to this. You have the chance to earn up to 4 additional chips if
you're able to guess whether the real prices of these four items are higher or lower than the given price. AND, if you DO
manage to hit the 100,000 dollar slot, you'll win THIS additional prize!
" It's a BRAND NEW CABIN CRUISER!! " the announcer said as a wall slowly spun around to reveal a VERY BIG BOAT.
" WOW! OH VEGGIE IT'S THE BIGGEST BOAT I'VE EVER SEEN!! " Goku gushed.
The little ouji glanced at the sparkily-eyed expression on the larger saiyajin's face and smirked, " Forget the
cruise-ships Kakarrotto, I'm gonna have my very own! "
" HEEHEEHEE!! " Goku bounced up and down eagerly.
" Now let's see here. " Vegeta smirked. The first item on the nearby table alighted.
" A 20oz box of Cheerios, is the price higher or lower than 3.99? "
::Chi-chan buys me cheerios all the time Veggie! It's higher!:: Goku mentally squealed to him.
Vegeta face-faulted, ::KAKARROTTO DON'T GIVE ME THE ANSWERS! THE GREAT AND POWERFUL SAIYAJIN NO OUJI DOES NOT CHEAT!:
: he looked over and saw the now-heartbroken expression on Goku's face. The larger saiyajin was doing is best not to cry.
::Buh--but I was only trying to *HELP* my sweet little Veggie who is so sweet and little. I did not know I was
cheating!:: Goku apologized, hurt.
::There there. I'm sorry for yelling at you, you big baka:: Vegeta mentally sighed, then smirked, ::You just want to
help your "Veggie" who you think needs extra help because he's never watched this game before, is that right?::
Goku nodded sweetly, his tears nearly gone and his cheeks now all rosy pink.
Vegeta twitched, " Uh-huh. " he said dryly, then turned to Bob, " Higher. "
" And the price is, " Bob flipped the page to the item over, " $4.99, HIGHER! You've won your first plinko chip,
Vegeta. "
Vegeta's eyes widened in shock as he whipped around to face Goku who was smiling at him knowingly, ::You DO know what
you're doing, don't you, Kakarrotto?::
::Chi-chan ALWAYS makes me read the food-prices when we go food-shopping so I don't "overbuy" the snacks I really
like!:: Goku mentally said cheerfully.
::Alright then Kakarrotto, keep in mental contact with me through the rest of this and we can beat this thing!
Got it?::
Goku gasped with joy, ::I have not worked together with Veggie against a challenge since Kid Buu! THIS'S GONNA BE SO
MUCH FUN!!!:: he gushed.
Vegeta twitched, ::Fun, right::
" The next item is Liquid Detergent. Is the true price higher or lower than, $7.00? "
::LOWER!:: Goku pumped his fist in the air.
" Lower! " Vegeta nodded.
" And the price is, $6.49, LOWER! " Bob said as the "you're correct" ding went off again in the backround, " That's
3 Plinko chips total. Here's the third item. "
" Pizza Rolls, $5.50. "
::Lower Veggie!::
" Lower. "
" $4.87. That's correct! "
" *DING*DING*DING*! "
" Oh God...OH GOD!! " Chi-Chi wailed as she held her head with both hands, terrified.
" Here's the final product, Vegeta. If you get this right you'll have all 5 chances. " Bob reminded him.
" Heh, I know. " Vegeta snickered.
" Cambell's alphabet soup! $3.00. "
::EEP!:: Goku mentally gasped.
Vegeta's eyes widened, ::What? What is it?::
::Oh Veggie, we have not bought alphabet soup for the last couple MONTHS! I spelled out something Chi-chan says was
bad and she sent me to my room and started ranting on how you're a bad influence and threw all the foods that contained
letters in them out!:: Goku thought, worried.
::Crap:: Vegeta twitched, ::Oh well, I'll wing it then::
::Are you sure, little itty bitty Veggie-chan?:: the larger saiyajin tried to comfort him.
Vegeta did his best to keep the redness from rising into his face, ::STOP BABY-TALKING ME!! I'M NOT A BABY!!::
::Veggie can be MY baby if he wants to:: Goku offered warmly.
::I DON'T WANNA BE YOUR BABY!!!:: Vegeta mentally screamed.
" Mr. Oujisama? Are you alright? Your face, it's changing colors. " the host looked cautious and concerned at the
same time.
" Oh! " Vegeta said, " Now, what was the item again? "
" Alphabet soup, $3.00. Higher or lower? "
" Higher. "
Goku gulped.
" And the price is, $4.00! Higher! You win all 5 chances to use all 5 Plinko chips! " he said. One of the assistants
handed Vegeta the chips. The ouji walked behind the wall containing the plinko machine and where the steps were. He floated
up to the top step and leaned over to look at it.
" Huh, let's see. A test run'll tell me all I need to know. " he said to himself, then grinned at Goku, " Wish me
luck, Kakarrotto! " he gave him a thumbs-up sign.
" GOODLUCK VEGGIE-CHAN!! " Goku cheered him on.
Vegeta plopped the plinko chip in the middle hole and watched it bounce downward. His eyes following the trail along
with others.
" $100 DOLLARS! " Barker announced the slot it had fallen into.
" There we go. Perfect. " Vegeta moved over slightly dropped his chip into the 2nd slot from the left. The chip
bounced down and landed in the middle rung.
" AHHHHHHHHHHH!! VEGGIEWINS! VEGGIEWINS!! " Goku bounced around happily.
" *DING*DING*DING*!!! "
" Mr. Oujisama you've won $100,100 dollars! " Bob said, smiling, " You win the money AND the cabin cruiser! And now
you get to go spin the Big Wheel! "
" Does that mean I get my other turns? " Vegeta blinked.
" There's no need, you've hit the jackpot. "
" I suppose that's right. " Vegeta smirked, then broke into a grin, " I wouldn't wanna upstage Onna TOO MUCH! "
" We'll see you when we spin the big wheel! " he said as one of the workers motioned Vegeta offstage; Goku followed
happily. Bob pointed to the camera, " And we'll see YOU, after this! "
" Goku, you are insane. TRUELY, insane. HOW COULD YOU LET THIS LITTLE MONSTER EVEN SHOW UP!! " Chi-Chi exploded as
she paced around the room with the tv and couches. Vegeta was contently sprawled all over the one Chi-Chi had formerly been
using. She noticed this and sent him a death-glare, " AND YOU STOP STEALING ALL MY STUFF!! "
" Stealing? YOUR stuff? Why Onna, I am not stealing, and this couch, along with the seat and the spot on the
contestant's row, do CERTAINLY not belong to YOU. " Vegeta said in mock-surprise.
" Little Vedge'ums has got a point, Chi-chan! " Goku chirped.
" OOOOOH!! " Chi-Chi sputtered, " AND YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF GOKU! I GO ONSTAGE AND ALL YOU DO IS ONE
CHEER! BUT FOR THE OUJI--NOOOOO. YOU CAN'T JUST CHEER CAN YOU! YOU GOTTA WHISTLE AND SHOUT AND EVEN FOLLOW HIM ONTO THE SET
AND THEN OFF IT, DON'T YOU!! "
" I cannot help it Chi-chan. " Goku pouted, " I was just looking out for little Veggie's safety. Him never being here
before and all. "
" Well WE HAVEN'T EITHER!! "
" But we've seen the show before! Veggie hasn't! He can easily get lost somewhere all dark and slimy and a-lone. "
Goku's said, his eyes watering at the thought of it.
" Yeah Onna, Kakay's gotta watch out for my "safety" you know. " Vegeta smirked, then glanced over at Goku, " After
all there are so many places my small, soft little body can get trapped inside and never found ever again. " the ouji said in
a babyish tone of voice.
" I WON'T LET YOU GET TRAPPED LITTLE VEGGIE!! " Goku promised, wailing as he lundged at the couch just as Vegeta
freaked out and started to climb off it only to be smushed beneath the large orange lump, " I will take special extra care of
my little Veggie so he won't get hurt by anybody or anything anywhichway! " the larger saiyajin hugged tightly against the
smaller one. Vegeta's whole body was now bursting with the bright red color and as soon as he got a deep whiff of the object
above him his body started to shake in spasms again.
" Ooh, what's this? The Ouji FEARS you hugging him now? " Chi-Chi said, slightly interested at the look of horror
instead of pleasure on Vegeta's face.
" No Chi-chan. Veggie is just trying to repress the entire day that occured around, you know, " he wagged his tail
at her, " These. He's just havin temporary side-effe--OH NO! VEGGIE! " he lept off the couch and picked up the now blankly
staring bright red little ouji who was drooling out the side of his mouth.
" WAAaaahhh~~~.... " Vegeta twitched every once in a while.
" Ohhh, OHHHHHH VEGGIE I'M SORRY! " Goku hugged him again, then gasped and pulled him away, " SORRY AGAIN! So sorry!
Really! " he sat Vegeta down on the couch and started fanning him with his hands, " You just cool down like a good little
Veggie, oh-kay little Veggie? " he said comfortingly.
Chi-Chi looked over at the monitor, " Well he better have cooled down in about 5 minutes. Seeing as the last
contestant just finished and now all we have left til we both go out there to spin the wheel is about 4 or 5 minutes. " she
said, watching the tv.
" It's alright Veggie, take your time cooling down. " Goku smiled weakly, " You just have to be back to normal in 5
minutes, you think you can do that oh-kay? "
Vegeta nodded, dazed.
" Oh, GOOD! " Goku clasped his hands together thankfully, then continued fanning him.
" 3 minutes everybody! " another backstage hand called out to them.
" Thank you! " Chi-Chi said happily, then turned to the two saiyajins and smirked, " You know Ouji, you don't HAVE to
hurry up. I'm sure we'll all be fine spinning the wheel without you--oh, WAIT, I already SPUN the wheel. " she said in
mock-surprise, " And you know what I got? A WHOLE DOLLAR! Meaning unless you get out there, I'm going to win that showcase
no sweat! HA! " she laughed happily.
Vegeta shook his head and shakily got to his feet. The redness fading from his face, " I don't think so. " he said
proudly, then wobbled out of the room. His stride growing stronger the farther he walked.
" GOODLUCK LITTLE VEGGIE! HAVE FUN!! " Goku cheered him on.
" Thank you Kakay. " Vegeta smirked back at him and disappeared behind a corner.
Goku continued to wave excitedly until he noticed the glare Chi-Chi was giving him.
" *COUGH*. " she coughed loudly.
" Oh. " Goku frowned, embarassed, " Goodluck to you too, Chi-chan! "
Chi-Chi smiled and nodded, " That's better. "
" Well Sandy you've spun 70 cents, congradulations! " Bob shook the young woman's hand as she walked over to the
big wheel's winner's circle. Bob turned to the remaining contestant who had yet to spin, " Vegeta you have to match Sandy's
70 cents or go over to get a chance to continue on to the showcase showdown. Now if you tie, you'll have a spinoff and the
one with the higher number that time will be the one to move on to the showcase. "
" Makes sense. " Vegeta said, mostly studying the wheel and memorizing which numbers were where. He nodded when he
finished shortly after that, " I'm ready! Watch me Kaka-chan! " he waved to the camera.
" HI VEGGIE!! " Goku said happily from the other room as he waved back to the tv screen.
Vegeta walked up to the wheel and put his hand on the wheel, then with a flick of the wrist spun it quickly, but by
human standards--had he put anymore force into it and it wouldn't have stopped for another couple hours.
The wheel spun around about three times and started slowing down on the fourth.
Chi-Chi bit her lip and prayed he hadn't hit anything above 70.
" 100 ON THE FIRST SPIN! VEGETA YOU'RE THE WINNER! " Bob said as he motioned to the wheel.
Chi-Chi promptly fell over and fainted.
" Now Vegeta since you've hit 100, that means you get a bonus spin. If you manage to spin 100 again you'll win an
extra 1,000 dollars. If you spin 5 or the 15, you'll get 500 dollars. Are you ready? "
The little ouji simply nodded, then reached for the wheel again and re-spun it.
" And it's a 5! you win the extra 500 dollars and we'll see you in the showcase! " Bob said as Vegeta waved happily
to the audiance and marched proudly off-stage. Bob turned to the camera, " And we'll see you after this announcement! "
" I have to do battle with the OUJI in the showcase... " Chi-Chi said weakly as she sat on the couch with her hands
on either side of her head, " I CAN'T BELIEVE I HAVE TO DO BATTLE WITH THE OUJI IN THE SHOWCASE!!! "
" You know I could've spinned the extra 100, but I decided to be modest about it. " Vegeta boasted as he leaned
against the wall next to Goku, " Besides I already have that giant boat, AND those water-skies. And after whatever "fabulous
prize" I win in this "showcase", we can go sail my giant boat to someplace tropical and try out those water-skies, among
doing your normal Kaka-water-work like attacking those large fish and such. " Vegeta explained.
" It sounds like a lot of FUN, little Veggie! " Goku chirped.
" Ah, it will be. " Vegeta smirked, " I saw the pictures of that boat on the monitors, it has ROOMS inside it. If the
weather starts to attack us we can always go down there and, " he paused to make sure Chi-Chi was listening in on them,
" entertain each other. "
" Heeheeheeheehee! " Goku giggled.
" OOOOH! WELL YOU'RE NOT GOING TO DO ANY OF THAT BECAUSE I'M GOING TO BEAT YOU!! " Chi-Chi pointed at him angrily.
" Ha! " Vegeta laughed, " Sure you will, Onna. "
" I KNOW I will, OUJI, because unlike YOU, I know my prices! THE ONLY REASON YOU GOT THIS FAR WAS BECAUSE OF
LUCK, GOKU HELPING YOU, AND THOSE STUPID OUJI-TACTICS OF YOURS YOU USED TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO SPIN THE NUMBER YOU WANTED!! "
Chi-Chi ranted, " AND YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO HAVE GOKU COME UP TO THE SHOWCASE WITH YOU AND HOLD YOUR HAND LIKE YOU'RE A BABY
AND TELL YOU THE RIGHT NUMBER! "
" I can't? " Goku sniffled sadly.
" NO YOU CAN'T! " Chi-Chi snapped, " THE ONLY REASON YOU WERE PROBABLY STILL ONSTAGE BACK THEN WAS THEY WERE EITHER
AFRAID OF YOU OR THEY COULDN'T GET YOUR ATTENTION TO SHOO YOU OFFSTAGE! "
The large saiyajin sulked in the corner. Vegeta put mittens over his gloves and patted Goku on the back.
" There there, Kakay-chan. I know, Onna's being mean to you again, huh? "
" Mmm-hmm. " Goku nodded, teary-eyed. Chi-Chi twitched.
" Well don't you worry because Veggie's going to go out there in the showcase and hand her rump to her on a silver
platter. " he smirked evilly at Chi-Chi, who sent him a death-glare.
" YOU'RE THE ONE WHO'S GETTING HIS BUTT HANDED TO HIM, OUJI! "
" You know Onna, if you keep yelling like that you're going to upset Kakay's poor sensitive saiyajin ears. Our
ears are twice as acute as a human's you know. " Vegeta said. He finished patting Goku's back and took the mittens off, then
ki-blasted them into oblivion.
" Heh, you're really afraid to even touch any part of Goku NOW, huh Ouji? " Chi-Chi snickered.
" THAT is none of your business. " Vegeta snorted, " And besides, I have to get out there to beat you into the ground
in about 5 minutes. " he smirked.
Chi-Chi narrowed her eyes at him, then smiled evilly and gave him a sharp push causing him to smack into Goku. Vegeta
let out a howl of terror as his body shot up 20 degrees and the now-bright-red ouji scrambled off of Goku and to his feet.
Chi-Chi turned and left the room, " I know that means Goku got a light dose of ouji-germs, but for the look on that
evil little monster's face, that was SO worth it. "
" And we're back with our two finalists in the Showcase Showdown! Son Chi-Chi and Vegeta Oujisama! " Bob said as the
camera's alighted their red "recording" buttons, " Vegeta you're our top finalist so you get to pick fir-- "
Chi-Chi pulled an object out of her pocket and lightly whapped Vegeta across the cheek. The ouji let out a small yelp
and burst into bright red. He covered his mouth with his hands to avoid screaming infront of a live studio audiance.
" Is, he oh-kay? " Bob asked.
" Oh don't mind him, Bob. The Ouj--I mean, Vegeta's just suffering from a slight fever--he told us backstage that his
allergies have been acting up a bit lately. But I'll be happy to go first! " Chi-Chi said cheerfully.
" Are you sure-- "
" Of course I am, Bob! I'd be glad to do it. Why I bet by the time I'm done making or passing my bid, Vegeta's face
will return it's normal shade. " she smiled and put the object back in her pocket.
Goku blinked at his hands backstage, confused, " Hey where'd my wristbands go? "
" Alright Chi-Chi, here's the first showcase! " Bob motioned off to the right-hand side of the stage as the camera
panned off there.
" This showcase is full of things to help you relax! " the announcer said, " First we have this elegant new smoothie
machine, designed and equipped to power on both electricity and battery operated for on the go, The Nouriche9000 can make
event he hardest to crush foods drinkable! "
" Ooooooh, smoothies! " Goku beamed.
" Next up is this beautiful spa tub! " a large rounded-edged square pool appeared, " With thermo-powered jets that
stream throughout the tub, it's a wonderful addition to any home! " the announcer continued.
" And finally! What better way to relax than with a week-long trip to the beautiful West Tropical Islands!! " another
wall spun around to reveal the picture.
" AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! " Chi-Chi squealed with joy, " OH GO-CHAN WE'RE GOING ON VACATION!! " she excitedly called out
to him.
" YAY!! BEACHES AND OCEAN-FUN FOR ME!! " Goku beamed.
" Yes, the West Tropical Islands! You and three guests will be flown via Coastal Airways to the lavish Palm Trees
Hotel and Resort. This showcase of things to help you relax can be yours if the price is right! "
" And Chi-Chi would you like to bid this showcase or pass? " Bob asked her.
" I'd like to bid on it Bob! " Chi-Chi smiled.
Vegeta shook his head, then snapped at her, " HEY YOU TRICKED ME AND THEN STOLE MY SHOWCASE YOU WITCH!! "
" What goes around comes around, Ouji. " Chi-Chi said cooly, " I bid 34,500, Bob. "
" 34,500. And here's the second showcase! "
" The second showcase starts out with this brand new couch! "
" Ooh, hey Bulma if Toussan wins the couch can me & Jitto trash this one! " Gogeta chirped.
" Fine, but not unless he actually DOES win. " Bulma said from the other room.
Gogeta looked over at the giant stain next to him where he had purposely just dumped some of his soda. The fusion
looked around suspicously, then grabbed a nearby pillow and put it overtop of the stain to hide it. He whistled innocently.
" Next up we have this wonderful motor scooter and last this brand new surfboard! "
" What's your bid Mr. Oujisama? " Bob said to him.
The little ouji folded his arms, deep in thought. Then nodded to himself and grinned, " One dollar! "
" WAHHHH!! " Goku fell over, " VEH-GEE!! "
" There you have it, the final bids of the day! We'll be back with the results, after this! " Bob said, then walked
offstage to get some water.
" So you think I overbid, huh Ouji? " Chi-Chi smirked, " Well let me tell you when he comes back and says that I've
gotten the exact price, I not only win MY prizes, but I get to take YOURS as well! "
" SURE you will, Onna. " Vegeta said skeptically.
" Remember Veggie! If you don't win, you still get to keep your big boat & skies you won in the earlier round! " Goku
whispered out to him from around the corner.
Vegeta twitched, " DON'T YOU PEOPLE HAVE ANY FAITH IN ME AT ALL!! "
" And we're back with the final round of The Price is Right! " Bob said as he walked back across the stage, the
camera following him, " Vegeta the price of your showcase is, 25,460. A total difference of, 25,459 dollars. "
The little ouji sweatdropped.
" HA! " Chi-Chi schoffed at him. Vegeta sent a death-glare at her.
" Chi-Chi, the price of your showcase is, 34,538! A difference of only 38 dollars! YOU WIN BOTH SHOWCASES!! "
" AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! I BEAT THE OUJI! I BEAT THE OUJI! HA HA HA HA HA! I ACTUALLY WON SOMETHING AND BEAT
THE OUJI!! " Chi-Chi hooted with victory as she did a little victory dance out behind the host.
" This is Bob Barker reminding you to have your cats, dogs,-- "
" --and Oujis! " Chi-Chi chimed in, momentarily grabbing the microphone.
" --spayed or neutered. Goodbye everbody! "
" YAY! MOMMY WON!! " Goten cheered as he ran down the steps along with Gohan to great her. The trio excitedly dashing
over to the many prizes she had just won. Vegeta marched over to Chi-Chi, annoyed.
" YOU BAKA ONNA YOU TRICKED ME BY USING THAT--HMMP!! " Vegeta yelped as Chi-Chi reached over and smushed Goku's
wristbands over his nose and mouth just as he was taking a deep breath. The ouji burst into a glowing bright red and fell
back unconsious.
" BOY that's convienent! " Chi-Chi grinned as she put the wristbands away, " I'm going to have to wash these when I
get home. "
" WOW, look at all the stuff we won. " Goku said in awe as he waddled onto the stage.
" GO-CHAN! There you ARE! " Chi-Chi ran over and glomped him, " Did you see me win? Did you see me beat the Ouji,
Go-chan! I can't believe how easy it was and-- "
" --Chi-chan have you seen my wristbands? " Goku sweatdrop, holding his arms out to her, " My wrists feel all cold &
naked without 'um. "
" Oh don't worry! I have them in my pocket, see? " she pulled them out halfway, " They just got really dirty so I'll
have to clean them when we get home. "
" Oh-kay. " Goku nodded, then watched as Chi-Chi eagerly ran over to check out her prizes that Gohan and Goten were
currently looking at in awe. Goten was pretending to ride the scooter and making motor noises while Gohan kept an eye on
him and observed the other prizes at the same time.
Goku took a few steps then gasped to feel a little bump on the floor. He looked down to see Vegeta laying there, the
redness slowly fading from his face.
" WAAAHhhhhh~~, curse..you....Onna... " he sat up, dazed and slightly agitated. Vegeta froze when he felt an
all-too-familiar ki beside him. The ouji looked upward just intime for Goku to grab him and pick him up. Vegeta let out a
yelp as his body turned bright red and all his limbs and body parts went completely numb with the exception of breathing,
which was now moving at a fast, heavy pace. Goku held the little ouji against himself tightly.
" And hello to you too, little Veggie! " Goku chirped, " What're you doing on the floor like that? "
" ... " Vegeta twitched slightly, his numb body still keeping him from moving that much or even screaming his lungs
out for that much.
Goku contently walked over to Chi-Chi, who was eagerly signing the papers she needed to have the prizes shipped to
her house along with getting the four plane-tickets to the hotel in the islands, " Hey Chi-chan, as long as you are still
busy here I am going to bring little Veggie and his prizes back to his home oh-kay? "
" Uh-huh, sure, whatever. " Chi-Chi brushed it off, a grin on her face. Goku shrugged, grabbed the water-skies and
put his spare hand on the giant boat, then teleported it all along with Vegeta to Capsule Corp's backyard. Goku walked around
front with Vegeta still in his arms and rang the doorbell.
" Hello? " Bulma opened the door, then sweatdropped to see Goku standing there holding a bright red, blank-faced
Vegeta in his arms, " Ah, he's finally back is he? " she said dryly.
" We saw everything on tv. " Mirai laughed nervously, " Or at least, most of everything. "
" KAASAN! " Gogeta chirped, bouncing over to Goku, " Toussan got to keep the big boat and the water-skies right? "
" HEE! " Goku grinned, " They're in the backyard.
" HOORAY! " both fusions cheered, Vejitto still on the couch.
" My he looks worse than usual. " Bulma observed as Goku plopped Vegeta down on his feet. The ouji wobbled back and
forth and fell onto his back. His head hit the tip of Goku's boot and he let out another yelp as the bright red glow burst
forth and nearly engulfed the entire room, the ouji screaming his lungs out.
" AAUGH! MY EYES! " Bulma covered them as she pulled out a capsule and opened it to reveal a large bucket of water.
She grabbed the bucket and promptly dumped it over Vegeta's body, instantly cooling him back down to normal temperature.
" *HUFF* *PUFF* *HUFF* *PUFF*! " Vegeta sat up, breathing heavily. The heavy panting soon slowed to a regular
breathing pattern. His eyes were now bulging out of his head as he tried to shake it off.
" You can thank me any time now. " Bulma said as she put the bucket away.
" *HUFF* *PUFF* Shuddup, *HUFF*. " Vegeta managed to get out, then shakily got to his feet.
" Dear God! Vegeta I TOLD you you should've waited before you went out there! And because you did it anyway you let
Chi-Chi beat you! " Bulma pointed at him, annoyed.
Vegeta smirked, " So you want me to win, eh? "
" NO! I NEVER SAID ANYTHING LIKE THAT!! " she snapped, then folded her arms, " I'm against this whole battle of wits
between you and Chi-Chi over Goku anyway! Not to mention sick and tired of it. "
" What battle over me? " Goku blinked, terribly confused.
" Oh nothing! It's nothing at all really it has nothing to do with you, haha, nothing! " Vegeta said cheerfully with
a sweatdrop running down the side of his head.
" What did she hit you with anyway? " Bulma asked, curious.
Vegeta flinched, " Kakarrotto's wristbands. " he grumbled.
" *Gasp*! But Chi-chan told me they were dirty! " Goku gasped.
" Yes, Kakay. Onna lied to you. After all, she's only human. Humans do that sort of thing when they're desperate. "
Vegeta snickered.
" I'm human too ya know. " Bulma twitched.
" I didn't mean YOU TOO. " Vegeta sweatdropped.
" Well I guess I should be going back to see Chi-chan. " Goku sighed, then brightened up, " After all! We gotta get
going on that trip to the islands she won! And then we can make smoothies!! "
" You know, Kaka-chan, I can make smoothies even WITHOUT a smoothie-maker. " Vegeta boasted, " Why not stay here,
we'll decorate a few rooms up like a tropical paradise and I'll make you some personal smoothies huh? Maybe something with
some CHOCOLATE in it for you? " he offered, rubbing his hands together.
" Aww, I am sorry little Veggie, but I cannot stay--OH! Unless YOU would like to come with ME! " he grinned.
" I'm afraid I'll have to decline that offer, Kakarrotto-chan. You see, the tickets Onna won BY TRICKING ME, are only
enough to supply four people. And I would be the fifth. "
Goku frowned, " Aww... "
" HEY! How about we capsulize you and Goku can take you onboard as luggage! " Bulma teased him.
" NO WAY!! " Vegeta snapped, " BESIDES YOU CAN'T CAPSULIZE LIVING BEINGS ANYWAY AND EVEN IF YOU COULD I WOULDN'T
GO! "
" I capsulized Kuririn and Muten Roshi and Chaoutzu all before and they're all fine now. " Bulma said.
" And when did you do THIS little experiment. " the ouji said, skeptical.
" Oh! Back when we were fighting Piccolo's evil father Piccolo Daimou! " Bulma smiled.
" But, weren't they already DEAD when you capsulized them, Bulma? " Goku said uneasily. Vegeta paled.
" ...? Oh yeah! But hey! I'd love to test it out on a live person! Whadda you say Vegeta! " she clasped her hands
together.
" I STILL SAY NO! I'M NOT GETTING KILLED IN ONE OF YOUR INSANE EXPERIMENTS!! "
" Aww... " she pouted, " Fine, be that way. " Bulma then grabbed part of Goku's sash and tapped it ever-so lightly
against the ouji's arm. Vegeta let out a small strangled yelp as a jolt of redness shot up his arm and slowly faded away,
" OR maybe instead I should do a few experiments on you to figure out exactly what's been causing your usually, ah,
glowingness, to suddenly become so much more stronger and extreme. "
" I refuse to be a guinia pig to you! " Vegeta snorted.
" Vegeta, unless we get this "glowy" thing of yours figured out and back under control, you won't be able to get near
Goku at all. " Bulma explained, then said in a sing-song voice, " And that means no more sparr-ing! "
Both saiyajins froze in place.
" No more sparring time with my little Veggie! " Goku gasped in horror, " Buh--but Veggie is my sparring partner,
without him I'd have nobody to play with in my free time!!....and I have a lot of free time. "
" Well luckily so do I! " she said, going into "genius" mode.
" YOU are going to spar with me? " Goku tilted his head, confused.
" WAHH! " Bulma fell over, " NO, GOKU! I HAVE THE SPARE TIME TO HELP YOU GUYS FIX WHAT'S WRONG WITH VEGETA!! "
" I DON'T WANT TO BE "FIXED"!!! " the ouji snapped.
" Nobody's neutering MY mommy!! " Vejitto shook his fist in the air from back on the couch. Bulma and Vegeta stared
at him flatly while Goku sweatdropped.
" You weren't even paying half attention to the conversation we were having, were you Vejitto? " Vegeta said.
The fusion sweatdropped, " No, not really. " he admitted, slightly embarassed.
" Well Goku, " Bulma turned back to him, " You have a nice trip with your family and Vegeta will be there to join you
shortly. " she said happily.
" You're letting me GO! " Vegeta grinned, " As in go after them and make Onna's vacation a living nightmare and sweep
Kakay away on my brand new giant boat! "
" AFTER I fix your head! " she finished.
" Ehh... " Vegeta whimpered.
" BYEBYE BULMA! SEE YOU LATER LITTLE VEGGIE! GET WELL SOON! " Goku waved cheerfully to them, then teleported out of
sight.
" Ohhhh...Ka-kyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy... " Vegeta pouted.
" Well, come on "Veggie"! " Bulma patted him strongly on the shoulders and turned him around. She began pushing him
towards the steps, " Down to the lab we go! "
Vegeta twitched, " Something tells me this will be a very painful afternoon... "

END OF PART ONE
Chuquita: (is a happy person) HOORAY!! (to Veggie) Hey Veggie guess what!
Vegeta: (sweatdrops) What?
Chuquita: I GOT THIS CHAPTER FINISHED INTIME FOR FRIDAY! (beams) That means I get to upload two things this week!
Vegeta: (flatly) Hooray.
Goku: (toots his little horn excitedly) YIPPEE!! (throws confetti in the air)
Chuquita: (to audiance) I wasn't really sure what I was gonna do for the Corners in our 75th Fic but I looked at the fic
where we celebrated fic 50 (well, technically fic 53) and I had done something that I got straight out of the monthly dbz
mangas (back when they had the monthly ones). Anyway! The manga had a little something on the letters page called
"Ask Vegeta" which had a chibinized super-deformed Toriyama-drawn Veggie holding up a sign w/his name on it. People would ask
Veggie questions and Veggie would usually either reply to the questions and ramble on about whatever he felt like afterward,
or just completely ignore the question and rant about something that was bothering him, usually Goku.
Vegeta: (looks over at Son)
Goku: (grinning at him stupidly)
Vegeta: (flatly) Oh yeah, I could just rant for AGES about THAT. (points to Son)
Goku: (chirps) I luv u too Veggie!
Chuquita: So here's your chance to "Ask Veggie"! You have a question for Veggie, and it shall be answered!
Vegeta: I didn't agree to this.
Chuquita: You agreed to it back when we did this in fic 50(3).
Vegeta: (snorts) Yes well back then I still had a strong-enough anger toward Kakarrotto to keep people from asking too
personal of a question. (frowns) Now there's barely any anger at all. And when there is it's normally when Kakarrotto does
something STUPID.
Goku: (tilts his head and blinks)
Vegeta: SEE!
Chuquita: (cocks an eyebrow) See what?
Goku: (chirps) SEE SHORE! SEASHORE!
Vegeta: (to Chu) THAT'S what I mean.
Chuquita: (still thinking up stuff to do) Maybe we should order a cake to celebrate...
Goku: YEAH! CHOCOLATE CAKE! Like last time!
Chuquita: (grins) I also got a brainstorm just now for some special guests to bring in! (I'm getting ideas off the 50th fic's
Corner).
Vegeta: It's not the android is it?
Chuquita: NAH! (happily) Even better than that! I was thinking of maybe guest-starring your original selves! Maybe even
Chi-Chi's along w/her current self!
Goku: (confused) Our original selves?
Chuquita: Yeah! The very first version of you & Veggie from my fics!
Vegeta: (sighs) They'll have to carry my earlier-version out on a stretcher once he has that heart-attack..
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) (changes subject) Anyway! It'll be fun! I also thought up a name for 03's "season" of fics! In fic 50
I made up names that represented each year's-worth of fics: 00 - Trial Season (or I guess you could call it the pilot since
it was only the first 3 fics); 01 - Experimentation (did a lot of different stuff including things starring characters other
than just Veggie & Goku so I could find which characters I liked working with); 02 - Buddy (did a lot of stuff with the whole
Big Buddy & Little Buddy relationship between Goku & Veggie); and 03 I think I'd like to call Tug-a-War because this is the
season where the real Vegeta VS Chi-Chi battle really picked up. They fought a bit last year, but nothing like they do now.
Vegeta: (smirks) And we ALL know who shall win, don't we?
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) Not necessarily Vedge...
Vegeta: WHAT!?
Goku: (wise-man-on-the-mountain) The future is yet to be written, grasshopper.
Chuquita: More like "typed" actually..
Vegeta: (snorts) Well I STILL shall EVENTUALLY prevail.
Goku: (happily) And then Veggie shall crown me his ~*oujo*~!
Vegeta: (twitches, slightly red) OH NO I'M NOT!
Goku: Aw, of course ya will, little Veggie! That part of the future has already been typed!
Vegeta: (stammers) Well, that-was-just-ONE-timeline! Not necessarily THIS one.
Chuquita: (blows whistle) (scorekeeper) And another point for Veggie! (holds up paper that reads Veggie=1, Goku=2)
Goku: YAY! I'm WINNING!.....*blinks* What am I winning?
Chuquita: (looks at her scorepad) I don't know.
Goku: ...
Chuquita: ...
Vegeta: ...well this is stupid.
Chuquita: FINE! You keep score. (tosses notepad to him)
Vegeta: (examines notepad unsureily, flips paper over and starts to doodle himself in his royal armor standing ontop of
a chibnized-size Bejito-sei) (smiles contently)
Goku: OOH OOH! I wanna doodle with my little Veggie! (pulls slightly mushy crayons out of his pockets)
Vegeta: (sweatdrops) Why are those mushy and how long have they been there?
Goku: I dunno and since last Tuesday.
Vegeta: (sighs) (pulls off clean sheet and hands it to Goku)
Goku: (dashes back to his seat w/sheet) YAY! (plops down and starts doodling as well.
Chuquita: (scratches her head) Well, I guess that wraps up part 1, huh?
Goku: (cheerfully) That it does!
Chuquita: (waves) We'll see you sometime next week everybody! Bye!
Goku: (chirps) May you find a pot of Veggies at the end of your rainbow!
Vegeta: (sweatdrops) ...
