Chapter 5

"Dad tell me a bedtime story."

"Why?"

"Cuz I can't get to sleep and you're one of the most boring people I've ever known."

Tika laughed in hysterics. Vegeta looked a bit annoyed. Trunks could sense a bit of trouble.

"Not really dad!"

"That was funny." Tika said, still laughing, her hand on her knee and the other hand on the door frame for support.

"Umm, Once upon a time there was a princess ..."

"What did she look like?"

"Um, she was an ugly old tart who had short brown hair, ok?"

"Ok."

"Once upon a time there was princess who lived in a castle..."

"What was the castle like?"

"Huge. There was a princess who lived in a castle. Her father was filthy rich and tried to find some Prince's to come and marry his daughter. But they could not find a prince who could marry her because she was ugly. The End."

"That was boring."

"Boring stories are supposed to put annoying kids to sleep! You obviously didn't find it boring because you are awake! Grrr!"

"I was hoping it would be exciting. What about you Aunt Tika?"

"Wha? Look, just call me Tika, yeah? Forget the Aunt business."

"Can you tell me a better bedtime story?"

"I'll try. Well, we'll keep Vegeta's beginning. Let's go from they were trying to find a Prince, ok?"

"Sure."

Many minutes passed.

" ... The prince kissed his princess when something happened. A flash of light surrounded the princess and then the light faded away, the ugly princess was there no more. The figure that stood had a beautiful face and a great figure, and the prince knew it was love at first sight. You see, when the princess was a baby, an evil wizard cast a spell on her, to make her look ugly, and only a true kiss could make her beautiful again. And it finally happened. They got married the next day, and they lived happily ever after."

Trunks' eyes closed slowly and he drifted into a sleep. Vegeta, who was leaning against the wall before Tika started her story, was now on the floor fast asleep. Tika giggled. She grabbed his hand and dragged him to his room and laid him on his bed.

"Night Vegeta." She whispered, and she gave him a peck on the forehead. She walked to the door and turned out the light, she looked back and smiled before leaving and walking into her own room.

The next day at the breakfast table, Vegeta and Tika were eating their breakfast when someone suddenly teleported in the kitchen.

"Hey, VMAN! How's it going?" It was Goku. Vegeta groaned.

"Hey, got a good hiding place? ChiChi's after me!"

"You ate all the food again?"

"Nuh-uh."

"You blew up something?"

"No. I'll give you a clue: It's sharp. Very."

"Needle?"

"EEEK! Don't say that word!!!"

"You're afraid of injections? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!" Tika laughed.

"Hey it's not funny! I faint!" Goku wailed. Tika laughed even more.

"Hey Goku! I know you're here!!" ChiChi called through the front door.

"Quick! She's after me!" Goku frantically said.

"Look, you find a place to hide. I'll distract her." Tika said.

"Thanks." And Goku ran off. Tika opened the door.

"ChiChi?"

"Oh hello Tika! Say, is Goku here?"

"No."

"Don't lie to me!!"

"Ssh! Go along with it!" Tika whispered. "Give me the needle, ok? Then I can go upstairs and put it in Goku without him noticing, ok? Oh, and what's the injection for?"

"Something called Tuberculosis."

"Gotcha."

"Mm hmm." Then ChiChi said: "Oh, he's not here? Oh bummer! I'll go look at the look out! See you Tika!" ChiChi handed over the needle secretly.

"Bye! Have a nice journey!"

ChiChi left. She put the needle behind her back and found Goku. He was sitting down, his back facing Tika.

"She's gone."

"Thank God for that."

Tika inserted the needle. Then Goku turned around and she quickly took it out again, but it was too late ... Goku saw it.

"AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH NEEDLE!!! YOU CAN'T MAKE ME TAKE IT! THE THING'S LETHAL!!!!! Ooh, feeling dizzy ..." and then Goku was out. There was a pause. Then Tika turned to Vegeta.

"What a twit. It's only a needle."

"'It's lethal!' God, only an idiot says that." Vegeta said.

"Veg?"

"Ahem ..."

"Sorry, Vegeta. Take Goku to his house ok?"

"Yeah. Come on you big lug." Vegeta heaved Goku over his shoulder and in a few seconds, they were out of sight.

"Thank God. It's gonna take a while for Goku to revive. Good, cuz I need time to do what I've been trying to do for the past few days." Tika said to herself.

At Goku's house ...

"Wake up you punk! Snap out of it!!" Vegeta yelled, slapping Goku round the face for a hundred millionth time.

"Don't you hurt him!" ChiChi squealed.

"That's the idea though! I gotta hurt him so he'll wake up! Open your eyes dammit!"

"Wha ...? AAHHH!!"

SLAP.

"Ow what did you do that for?" Goku said, rubbing his cheeks.

"Trying to wake you up!"

"What happened?"

"You fainted cuz you saw the ..."

"I remember now just don't say that word!!"

"Gotta get going anyway." Vegeta moaned, as he flew back to his house.

Vegeta walked inside.

"Hello?"

Nothing.

"HELLO!!"

Still nothing.

"ANYBODY HERE!!??"

"Just coming."

It was Tika.

"Come with me." She said.

"Huh?"

"Just do it."

They went outside in the back garden. It was nightfall and stars were hanging above them. The moon shone brightly.

"What?"

"Vegeta, do you remember anything we did in the past?"

"Err ... yeah ..."

"Do you remember making anything?"

Vegeta tried to gasp but nothing came out his mouth.

"W-w-wait there. I'll be right back."

Tika stayed calm. She hoped she knew what he was getting. A few seconds later Vegeta returned ... with a fancy green key. He held it up to her.

"Do you mean this?"

"Yes."

She held out a tiny oval box. It was exactly the same colour. Around the middle, it said:

Vegeta and Tika-Marron

Friends

4eva

"I've been waiting to do this since I arrived, but I never had time." Tika said. "Insert the key in the key lock Vegeta."

Vegeta's hand was shaking and his mouth was dry. Tika's heart was beating - fast. They key inserted, and Vegeta made sure it clicked. When it did, the oval box flew out of Tika's hand, and started to glow. Vegeta ran by Tika's side. The box fell to ground, motionless.

"Well that was pointless." Tika said, but she was wrong.

The box opened up, and bright yellow light shined out and upwards, as if it were touching the sky. The light around them was warm, and a hologram of memories of the two when they were younger appeared, and a song was heard.

We're A Miracle

VERSE 1

Here we are

Safe at last (Vegeta and Tika cuddling.)

We can breathe a sigh (V + T sigh.)

It seems the storm has passed (Clouds part and the sun shines)

Through it all

No one knew

That all the tears in heaven

Would bring me back to you, oh (V + T cuddling and crying)

No one I know

Imagined we would make it

But it only matters that we both believe

Oh

CHORUS

You and me we're a miracle (V + T looking up, smiling)

Meant to be and nothing can change it

Mountains move (Tika training by mountains)

And oceans part (Vegeta training by the sea)

When they are standing in our way (V + T throw energy blasts)

You and me we're a miracle (V + T hugging and V kisses T on the head.)

Angels stand watching over us

And heaven shines upon us everyday (Sun rays shining through clouds)

Ooh, oh yeah

VERSE 2

Every time I felt near defeat (Tika cowering in corner, Frieza shadows above her)

You were there for me oh (V runs in front of Frieza)

On my side completely

You give me strength (T + V training)

You send me free (T + V flying)

This is because of you, oh

I'm more than I can be

When I'm with you (V + T standing side by side)

The world is ours to reach for

Together there is nothing that we can't do (V + T throw Ki blasts)

Repeat CHORUS

The chance was so unlikely

That we would ever be oh

Two stars among the heavens (T + V staring up looking at the stars)

Destiny brought you to me (V + T running to eachother and cuddling)

Repeat CHORUS

Miracle ..... (V + T cuddling)

"Wow." Tika said. Tears were rolling her cheeks. Vegeta was choked.

"We were ... really close back then."

"Yeah."

"You know what this means?"

"Yes. We promised that we saw this one ..."

"We'd make another."

"But let's leave it till tomorrow."

"What do we do with this one? Blow it up?" Vegeta suggested.

"No. We'll keep it."

The little box closed up, and they key fell out of the hole. Tika collected it.

"We may need some of these memories for the new one."

"Right."

"Come on let's go inside. Without that light it's freezing out here."

They both went inside. Vegeta put the key on his bedside, and Tika put the box on her bedside, and they fell asleep.

Next day, Tika and Vegeta had a blue print in front of them on the kitchen table with ... what do you know ... nothing on it. An hour passed .... Two hours ... four hours ...

"Let's start with the basic things first. What colour should it be? We can't use green cuz we've already used it for the first one." Tika said.

"Umm ... blue? Red?"

"I vote for blue."

"Blue it is. I'll write that down."

"Why are you writing in Saiyan language?"

"Cuz I don't know how to write in English."

"Oh. Fair enough."

"Umm, what song shall we use now?"

"Hmm ..." Tika was deep in thought, and put her legs on the table and leaned back, but she leaned back to far.

"Woah, oh, WOAH!!!!"

Vegeta laughed.

"The idea of a chair is to sit on it you ninny!"

"I KNOW!!"

Tika climbed back on her chair again and started to think.

"Mmm ... ah! Er, no ... umm ... get out some CD'S Tika."

"Hmm, lets see ... we used Christina Aguilera last time so we can't use her again."

"God I don't know how we did the one we did when we were younger..."

"How about I will be there?"

"Nah ... it's that kind of song which says 'Oh dear God! I can't believe I broke up with you! My God pleaaasssssse can I have you back!!??' "

"Hehe, ok then, that's a no, no."

"What's that song there, by Trisha Yearwood?"

"Blimey ... I haven't heard that song in ages..."

They listened to the song, and decided to go along with that one. They made their new memory music box, and they had a preview of it, so they knew that it would be good for many years to come. This was the result.

How do I live?

VERSE 1

How do I get through one night without you

If I had to live without you

What kind of life would that be? (T and V in separate bedrooms thinking about each other)

Oh I, I need you in my arms (V holding T in his arms, T crying)

Need you to hold

You're my world, my heart, my soul (V and T staring into each other's eyes)

If you ever leave (V seriously injured, T crying over him.)

Baby you would take away everything

Good in my life

And tell me now

CHORUS

How do I live without you? (V and T hugging each other tightly)

I want to know

How do I breathe without you (V and T sighing)

If you ever go? (T+V getting separated)

How do I ever, ever survive?

How do I, how do I, oh how do I live

VERSE 2

Without you, there'd be no sun in my sky (Dark, gloomy day, T looking across the plains)

There would be no love in my life (T in the rain, hand over chest)

There'd be no world left for me

And I, baby I don't know what I'd do

I'd be lost if I lost you (V and T hugging)

If you ever leave (V seriously injured, T crying over him.)

Baby you would take away everything

Real in my life

And tell me now

Repeat CHORUS

If you ever leave (V seriously injured, T crying over him.)

Baby you would take everything

Need you with me (V and T holding hands)

Baby cuz you know that you're everything

Good in my life

And tell me now

Repeat CHORUS

Without you ...



" ..................... Now that's a pretty memory." Tika almost whispered.

"Yeah."

It was silence. As last time, the box closed up and the key fell out.

"Key or box?" Tika asked.

"I had key last time, so I'll have the box."

They embraced.

"I'll never leave you again Vegeta. I don't know how I did in the first place..."
