Heaven Vs Hell Chapter 3

"I keep forgetting how much I hate this place," he muttered to himself as he stepped out into the light. Putting one hand in front of his face to shield his eyes from the sunlight, Vegeta put one foot on the flight of stairs ahead of him. Looking at the amount that he had to climb, he sighed.

"Hell…fuck this, I'm flying."

Pushing himself up off the ground, Vegeta flew up the flight of stairs, occasionally passing souls on their way down to the underworld. Several of the souls had kept their bodies and were giving Vegeta pleading looks as he flew. Smirking, he picked an individual and spat to the ground. In a few seconds, the figure had burnt down to the ground, writhing in agony.

"Ah…I love my job," he said, smirking as he noticed the look of fear in the other soul's faces.

"Hey Vegeta!" A voice called up to him from below. "Pack it in will ya? He won't be very happy if you destroy all the souls before they get in!"

"Ah…He won't care. He thinks Hell glows out of my ass at the moment. Whatever I do He won't give a damn. As long as I bring back this soul, He'll be happy…I mean…miserable."

Vegeta laughed. 'Is it possible to enjoy your job too much?' He thought as he neared the top of the stairs. 'Eternal torment is great…I just wonder why the souls we bring don't enjoy it as much.'

Standing alone at the gateway to Earth from Hell was an old demon named Cell. Cell was nearly as old as Him and was thought to be the second most evil demon of all time. Even Vegeta didn't dare to mess with Cell.

On approaching the gateway, Vegeta slowed his pace. 'Better not let the old bag think that I need to get out of here quickly. He hates my guts.'

Floating down beside the gateway, Vegeta glanced at Cell and coughed.

"I know you're here Vegeta, man aren't you looking happy and bright?"

Vegeta shuddered. "You're looking lovely too Cell. Now would you mind opening this gate…now?!"

Cell's feeble old hands fumbled to select the right key for the door. "The trouble with you and all young demons today Vegeta is that you have no respect for the old. Why…in my youth, the elderly were tortured and shouted at all the time. I miss those days…"

"Yeh Yeh come on you wrinkled old cabbage. I would like to get to Earth sometime in this century."

"What's the rush…you've got all century!" Cell coughed slightly as he attempted to laugh at his weak joke.

"Yeh well…just hurry up."

After several minutes, Cell managed to open the gate but before Vegeta could step out of it, he put his arm across the entrance.

"What now?"

"You be careful young Vegeta. Just try to treat your superiors with more respect or you'll get yourself into trouble one of these days."

"Yeh Yeh now let me through."

Cell moved his arm slowly and watched as Vegeta flew up into the air.

"He'll learn…oh will he learn."

Jumping up and down through the clouds, Kakarott neared the gateway with a happier expression on his face than he had had about two minutes before hand.

"Dende knows all about technology and stuff like that. He'll help, I'm sure of it!"

As he got neared to the gate, Kakarott waved to Dende. Landing beside him, Kakarott slapped Dende on the back causing him to fall over.

"Hey Dende how ya doing…oh sorry."

Dende stood up, clutching his aching back and smiled slightly. "It's ok Kakarott, it's not like you can kill me!"

"Yeh…that's true!" Kakarott replied, smiling and putting one of his hands behind his head in a typical pose. "So anyways Dende…I was wondering whether you could help me."

"Yeh sure Kakarott, I'm always willing to aid a fellow angel. What's the problem?"

"Well…" Kakarott said, scratching his halo and putting on an innocent expression, "Something happened to my keypad and I was wondering whether you could fix it for me?"

"Well…there's only one way to find out, let me have a look at it will you?"

Fumbling around in his pocket, Kakarott finally brought out the totally destroyed keypad, in about 1000 pieces.

Dende face faulted. "What on Heaven did you do to it Kakarott? Did a steamroller go over it or something? It's totaled!"

"Well…not exactly, I kinda er…dropped it."

"You dropped it?! You must have thrown it!" Dende laughed. "Never mind, it can't be helped."

Kakarott's face brightened. "So you can fix it then?"

"Sadly no. It's broken up into so many pieces that there's no way that I could put it back together."

Kakarott's face fell.

"I could make you another one but it would take a few hours to do."

"A few hours! But I need one now!" Kakarott pouted.

"Listen Kakarott, pouting isn't gonna help. I can't make one now, I can't make one appear out of thin air you know!"

Kakarott sighed and held his head down. "Man, King Yemma's gonna kill me, I've only been on this mission a few minutes and I've already messed up."

Dende noticed Kakarott's unhappy face and sighed. "Well…I suppose I could lend you mine. But just for this mission."

A smile erupted onto Kakarott's face and he grabbed Dende in a massive hug.

"All right all right Kakarott, enough already."

Kakarott dropped Dende. "Oops, sorry."

Dende handed Kakarott his keypad which Kakarott carefully placed in his pocket. "Now don't damage that one aswell Kakarott. I can't afford to keep making new consoles everytime you total one!"

"Yeh I know, thanks Dende! Oh…and one more thing."

"What's that Kakarott?"

"Could you open the gate for me? I'm kinda in a hurry!"

Dende smiled. "Sure, no problem. Good luck on your mission. Bring us back something nice!"

"Yeh…I'll bring you back a T-shirt!" Kakarott laughed.

Dende waved goodbye to Kakarott and watched him slowly fly down towards Earth. Closing the gate, Dende sighed and shook his head. "That guy is a klutz, a total klutz."

The ground in West City rumbled and objects fell towards the earth as the entire city shook.

"EARTHQUAKE!" Someone shouted.

People ran away from tall buildings as quick as they could. But just as soon as the earthquake had started, it stopped.

All was silent again.

"Weird huh?" One man said to another.

"Yeh…very strange."

What they didn't notice was a pair of eyes peeking up through a patch of grass in the small City Park. Eyes darting back and forth. Then a nose, then a mouth and then finally the entire face.

Completely erupting from the soil was a person, a person with horns and a tail, a person with a dark look in his eyes.

"It is time. Let's catch a soul."
