Scrix: What the fuck?

Karis: CMG was reading too much Ruins of the Fourth Wall at Fireballx20.com and now she knows Netspeech. How annoying!

Infr: The horrors of the Internet! I condemn thee to the seven layers of hell!

CMG: |)0|\|'+ (0|\||)3|\/||\| |\|3+5p33(|-|, ||\||=2. |+'2 |=|_||\|!

Demona: Still, we don't understand Netspeech, CMG.

Infr: Well, at least give us some translations.

CMG: |=||\|3 `/0|_| |(||_|__|0`/. *speaks normal* The first thing I said: |-|1. 6|_4|) `/0|_| _|0||\|3|) |_|5. That's translated into "Hi. Glad you joined us."

Saria: Go on.

CMG: Next, I said |)0|\|'+ (0|\||)3|\/||\| |\|3+5p33(|-|, ||\||=2. |+'2 |=|_||\|! That is roughly translated into "Don't condemn Netspeech, Infr. It's fun!"

Infr: And what was that last thing you said?

CMG: If you must know, I said |=||\|3 `/0|_| |(||_|__|0`/. It's translated into, "Fine you killjoy." Happy?

Scrix: You know, that's rather interesting. Can you teach me?

Zi-Kita: Me first! I want to learn that language so that I can curse Vegeta in an entirely different language!

Demona: This should be interesting. *laughs*

Scrix: No me! *the two Saiya-jins get into a fight as CMG sighed*

CMG: *using Netspeech again* 0`/! /-\5 |_|2|_|4|_, | |)0|\|'+ 0\/\/|\| |)2460|\| |34|_|_ z. | 0|\||_`/ 0\/\/|\| 50|\/|3 60|)5, 60|)|)32232, z|-|(|+4, |)3|\/|0|\|4, 4|\||) 4 |)2460|\|. 50 |)0|\|'+ 5|_|3!

Gods/Goddesses/Zi-Kita/Demona: What in the fuck did you say now?

CMG: *groans* I said, "Oy! As usual, I don't own Dragon Ball Z. I only own some Gods, Goddesses, Zi-Kita, Demona, and a Dragon. So don't sue!" Now leave me alone!

Scrix: Are you going to make this whole fanfic into Netspeech?

CMG: No. *thinking* Although it would be interesting seeing how many flames I'd get for pulling that trick on some readers reading this. *laughs evilly as the others look at her strangely and start to back away slowly* What? Oh and I forgot to give you a bio on Demona last chapter, didn't I? Here:

Name: Demona

Age: ?? (even a woman doesn't give away her age, except me (CMG) of course, ha!)

Mate: Zi-Kita (duh!)

Description: The seductress of darkness. She has raven black hair and looks like Rei off of Sailor Moon, except sexier and evil. Wears a rather skin-tight outfit, except hers is leather and she looks creepy. Pale reflection, blood red lips. Angst-y person, eh? Well, there you are. Demona. Now leave me alone!

****************************************************

You've got to make me an offer
That cannot be ignored
So let's head for home now
Everything I have is yours
Step by step and day by day
Every second counts I can't break away
Leave no trace
Hide your face

All I desire
Temptation
Keep climbing higher and higher
Temptation
Adorable creatures
Temptation
With unacceptable features
Temptation
Trouble is coming
Temptation
It's just the high cost of loving
Temptation
You can take it or leave it
Temptation
But you'd better believe it

Keep us from temptation
Lead us not into temptation

~Heaven 17-Temptation

****************************************************

A week has passed since the kidnapping of Goku. Everyone trained hard every single day to become stronger. At one point, Yamcha almost was killed during the training, but Piccolo managed to step in and offer assistance along with Scrix. After managing to heal Yamcha, everyone trained more carefully. Bra was training hard with Vegeta as she showed a lot of progress. Bardock trained Pan in the meantime. One day, Bardock had an evil idea.

"Hey Vegeta, I bet Pan will become a Super Saiya-jin first," said Bardock slyly.

"In your dreams, seer," said Vegeta. "Bra's stronger than your grandbrat."

"Fine, let's place a bet then," said Bardock, not knowing that Scrix was eavesdropping on the two around the corner. "If my granddaughter becomes a Super Saiya-jin before your daughter, then you must stop calling my son names."

"And if I win, you must acknowledge me as Prince Vegeta," said Vegeta.

"Fine," said Bardock as he sneers at Vegeta.

"Fine," growled Vegeta as they both storm off in different directions.

'This should be interesting,' thought Scrix as he walked off to find Pan and Bra.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"Mr. Scrix sir?" said Pan. "Does my great-grandpa know you're with us?"

"Yeah, I don't think my dad knows either," said Bra.

"No, and there's a reason behind it," said Scrix as they stood in the empty room. "This is the secret training room I allowed Kakarot to train in."

"So why are we here?" said Bra.

"I want to help you two become Super Saiya-jins," said Scrix. "But don't tell your father or great-grandfather about it."

"Why not?" said Pan.

"We want to keep it a surprise," said Scrix with a gentle smile.

"Oh I see!" said Pan. "Like a present!"

"Yeah! I want to be like my brother and become super strong!" said Bra.

"Okay little ones," said Scrix as he reverts to his regular form. "Let's start!"

*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"Pan!" said Bardock.

"Bra?" said Vegeta. "Where are those brats?"

"I think Scrix took them somewhere," said Tien. "They were following him down the hallway about a half-hour ago."

"Why would he be interested in taking those two somewhere when we're supposed to be training them?" said Vegeta as he grew angry. "Tell me where he took them, three-eyes!"

"I'm not allowed," said Tien with an evil glint in his eye. "Scrix told me it was classified information and he made me swear by the Saiya-jin Code not to tell."

"Damn code!" growled Bardock. "Fuck the code and tell us where the girls are now! You aren't even a damned Saiya-jin!"

"Even so, I don't go back on my words," said Tien. "Now leave me be. I have some training to do."

"Scrix, when I find you..." started Bardock.

"...you will face the wrath..." continued Vegeta.

"...of two Saiya-jin that want their child to become a Super Saiya-jin first!" said both men together as they ran down the hallway to find out where he took the two girls.

(A/N: Couldn't resist putting that in there, including when those two have a bet riding on it and all. Muhahaha!)

*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Meanwhile, Kakarotto was in the dining room as Demona instructed him on table manners. As the first course came out, the Earth-raised Saiya-jin tore into the food as the other Saiya-jins at the table watched with their mouths wide open. Demona kicked Kakarotto in the shin as he saw Demona give the Saiya-jin a glare that made him watch as she ate slower and more neatly. Kakarotto followed, despite his feeble attempts of eating a meal slower than usual as his stomach protested. After the first course, another came out as he took his time, glancing up every so often to find Demona glaring at him if he stared to long or not. Zi-Kita was at the end of the table eating politely as well as the courses continued to arrive. Finally after everyone had their fill, Demona coughed as Kakarotto ignored it.

/Aren't you going to help me up?/ said Demona.

/Well excuse me!/ said Kakarotto a bit harsh as he walked around and grabbed Demona and threw her over his shoulders. As the Saiya-jin felt the woman hitting his back rather angrily, Kakarotto proceeded to walk out before he ran into Zi-Kita.

/Let my mate down now,/ said Zi-Kita as Kakarotto set down Demona as she stalked out rather angry. /If I ever see that performance ever again, I will chain you up and whip you like a dog./ (A/N: W00t! Whoever wants to see Demona get treated badly again, please say so in your reviews! Zi-Kita: *bashes CMG* You wouldn't dare do that to my mate or I'll beat you with him! | CMG: Gomen, Zi-Kita-sama.)

/Forgive me, Lord Zi-Kita, but she wasn't precise on the words,/ lied Kakarotto, as he tried to piss off the Dark God.

/Be that as it may, from this moment on, you shall learn proper etiquette,/ said Zi-Kita as he clapped his hands./Ganki, take this Saiya-jin and teach him the correct etiquette./

/As you wish, Lord Zi-Kita,/ said the Saiya-jin as Kakarotto saw an older Saiya-jin come forward. She had short snow white hair that stuck up in the air. Her tail was also white as her pupils were a deep gray color. /Come with me, low-class./

*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"Pan! Are you alright?" said Bra.

"I only got the wind knocked out of me," said Pan as she pushed the Saiya-jin Princess aside. "Let me take him!"

"That's enough for today," said Scrix as he healed both the girl's wounds. "You are both about to ascend and I want to make sure that it's done correctly."

"What do you mean?" said Bra.

"Just relax," said Scrix as their energy rose. "Now go for it."

"Right!" chirped both Pan and Bra as the white energy laced around their bodies. As they gave a battle cry, their eyes flickered teal as their hair became blonde.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Vegeta and Bardock felt the two girl's powers rising as they found the secret room and saw both of them transform into a Super Saiya-jin at the same time.

"What?!" said both Bardock and Vegeta. "They transformed!"

"You both need to stop placing so much on these two," said Scrix.

"Then who won the bet?" said Bardock. "This wasn't part of it!"

"Dad, I'll tell mommy that you've been betting again!" pouted Bra.

"No Bra! If you don't tell mommy about the bet, I'll read you bedtime stories for a year," said Vegeta.

"Promise?" said Bra as she held out her pinky as Bardock felt a twinge of pain in his heart.

"I promise," said Vegeta as his pinky locked around her tiny one.

*** Flashback... ***

Dad," said Goku. "I think somehow, that stone gave me the ability to see into the future. I saw how I died and I know there's nothing I can do to change fate like Trunks is."

"What?!" yelled Bardock. "You mean you..."

"Yes, but I'm not going to say anything about it to anyone else," said Goku as he held his fist out towards Bardock with his pinky extended. "You have to promise not to tell either, dad."

"What is this?" said Bardock as Goku smiles innocently. Goku wrapped Bardock's pinky around his.

"This is a promise that no matter what happens, you and I have to keep it," said Goku as he shakes Bardock's fist around. "It's a promise that cannot be broken between us."

"I still don't get it," said Bardock. "Why are you making me do this?"

"It's a pinky swear," said Goku. "If you tell, then it wouldn't be a secret and the promise will be broken. You can't tell anyone about it. They'll find out eventually, but right now, only we know about it."

"I see," said Bardock still confused. "Well, I promise not to tell anyone, including your mate."

*** End Flashback ***

Bardock left the room, unable to take the scene.

"Great-grandpa!" cried Pan as Scrix rested a hand on the little quarter-Saiya-jin's shoulder and stopped her from pursuing Bardock. "Why did he leave?"

"He's not feeling well and doesn't want you to get sick," said Scrix. 'Bardock, don't do what I think you're going to do...'

*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Bardock ran to the training room and turned on the gravity generator to about 1000x normal gravity. As he felt the weight pressing down on him, he started to transform into his ascended Super Saiya-jin form as he continued to raise his power. As his golden hair spilled down his back, he began to train very hard as he fired blasts at the panels as they ricocheted the beams back at him. Lowering his power, he let all of them hit him dead on as he fell to the ground in a bloody heap. Not bothering to turn off the gravity, he wished that he was dead. Before he knew it, he saw a horrifying vision as he saw the very planet he vowed to protect get destroyed before he lost all consciousness.

Scrix: Hey, hey, you really are an asshole.

CMG: Why don't you shut up and sing the song pal.

Zi-Kita: Please stop already!

Saria: You are a foul woman!

CMG: Oh come on! I was just getting warmed up too!

Demona: Save it for a humor fic.

CMG: Fine. I borrowed the "I'm an Asshole" song for the end credits, so don't sue 'cause I don't own. And I'm an asshole and I'm proud of- *Demona ties up CMG and throws her in the closet* -it. Okay. Let me out right now! *starts banging on the door*
