"Broke his nose?!" Vegeta exclaimed.
"Oh, no..." Mizu reddened with embarrassment.
"It's true!" Bulma insisted. Goku looked at her.
"I don't remember that. Was I there?"
"Um..." Bulma tried to remember.
"I don't think you were, actually..." Mizu admitted.
"Who cares?" Frieza shrugged.
"Yeah, anyway," Bulma carried on telling the story. "Mizu asked Yamcha if he could teach her how to play baseball,"
Mizu started to chuckle.
"So she gets the bat," Bulma said. "She swings it backwards as hard as she possibly can, it hits him in the nose, blood pouring everywhere -"
Vegeta and Frieza burst out laughing.
"It's not funny!" Mizu protested, but she too was smirking a little.
"He nearly blacked out, you should have seen his eyes! He was finding it harder to keep them open than walk in a straight line!" Bulma exclaimed.
"So we got him to hospital..." Mizu smirked. She looked at Bulma. "Remember what they did to him?"
"What?" Goku asked.
"Aw, it was horrible!" Bulma began. "His nose had gone out of position or something, so they got these tweezers..."
At this point, Frieza and Vegeta exploded into hilarious laughter.
"It was gross." Mizu shook her head.

Frieza looked at Mizu.
"Is it me or do you make a hobby of torturing Earth males?"
"They were accidents!" Mizu protested.
"Yeah, but throwing Yamcha's pants out of the window wasn't." Bulma added. Vegeta swung his head back laughing.
"What?!" Frieza demanded, eager to know the story.
"In my defense, I'd had a LOT of drinks!" Mizu insisted.
"It was so funny!" Bulma laughed. "Just totally out of the blue she pushes him to the floor, takes off his trousers, runs over to the window and throws them out."
"I remember that!" Goku gasped. He frowned at Mizu and Bulma. "And you made ME go and get them!"
"Oh, this just gets better..." Frieza smirked.
"Well you had to!" Bulma replied to Goku. "Mizu and I were to drunk to walk in a straight line...." she smirked. "And Yamcha didn't have any pants on." she started to laugh.
"Yeah, but at the time it was two o' clock in the morning, it was winter, and you'd thrown them into a RIVER!" Goku exclaimed.
"Sorry ^_^" Mizu apologized innocently.
"Well at least they weren't your pants. Yamcha had to walk home in them." Bulma said.

Trunks landed near a cliff edge. A few meters away was the end of the forest. Lavender landed opposite him and Goten, beside. Lavender looked around.
"Eh. It'll do." she said.
"Guys, seriously -"
"Goten, be quiet, okay?" Trunks interrupted him. He looked at his friend. "I don't care if our moms are friends, her dad made mine's life a living hell. He even tried to kill your dad."
"But, Trunks!" Goten protested. "My dad spared his life for a reason! Frieza promised he wouldn't come back to cause trouble and he didn't! He's just here on vacation. Imagine what my dad will be like when he finds out you two are fighting each other! And your moms?"
"It's got nothing to do with any of them." Lavender argued. "So shut up, okay?"
"Besides, you make it sound like we're gonna kill each other." Trunks shrugged. "We're not."
"Fight until someone becomes unconscious? Come on! Even I know how dangerous that is!" Goten argued.
"Well if you're not happy with it, maybe you should just go home." Trunks said.
"But -"
"Listen, Goten. It's different with your family. Frieza never really did your dad any harm. Not really. To your dad, he's just another bad guy." Trunks began. "But with mine it's different. His race... his family.... his childhood. Frieza took all of it." he glared at Lavender, but still spoke to Trunks. "She and I can never be friends, just like our fathers can't. No matter what anyone else says, we're enemies. And we always will be." he looked over his shoulder at Goten. "Got it?"
"........... Promise me nobody's gonna die." Goten replied. Trunks chuckled.
"Promise. It's a friendly fight."
"So let's start already!" Lavender whined. "Enough with the dramatic speeches! Is that all saiyans do? You guys really do linger like a bad odor!"
"You'll pay for that!" Trunks shouted. he dove at her.
"Now we're talkin'!" Lavender smiled. She dodged his attack easily, flying up into the air.

Goten watched tensely as they fought. He was amazed at how strong Lavender was. He'd never seen anyone move so fast! She punched and kicked Trunks at the speed of light. But Trunks seemed to be doing okay. He blocked her attacks - not without difficulty, though. Lavender glared at Trunks as she attacked him. She smirked.
"Not gonna even try to hurt me?"
"If you insist." Trunks answered back. Lavender gasped in surprise as Trunks unexpectedly swung his fist at her. He hit her cheek, knocking her face to the side. Trunks saw this as an opportunity to launch another attack. He kicked her hard, sending her flying about two meters away before she regained her balance.
Goten couldn't help but smirk a little.
Trunks fired a series of ki blasts at Lavender. She darted about, dodging each of them and deflecting some back to him, which Trunks also dodged. Lavender sent her own blasts at him. Their ki attacks with each other, creating a series of explosions between the two.

Lavender looked like she was starting to weaken. She disappeared from Trunks' sight, and before he could react he felt something stab into his throat. Assuming it was her, he cried out.
"Hey! That's ch -" he spun around, but saw nobody there. He looked around, and his eyes widened in surprise when he saw Lavender falling towards the ground.
"Huh...?" he mumbled. He frowned. He started to feel very tired.
"Hey!" Goten ran over to Lavender. He knelt down, and checked her pulse. Strange. She seemed to just be sleeping. He looked up at his friend.
"Trun -" he gasped as Trunks came falling from the sky. "Hey!" he flew up and caught him. Slowly, he flew down and placed him on the ground. Goten looked at the slightly older demi - saiyan. "Trunks?" he shook him. "Trunks?" Trunks was asleep, too.
"What...?" Goten mumbled. "Huh - - " he choked out as he felt something stab into his throat. "Hey!" he turned to see who was behind him.
"Mm?" a strange - looking woman smirked down at him. Goten started to feel faint.
"What did you..." he couldn't finish his sentance before he collapsed, and blacked out.
