Quote of the Week: -from dbgt #48

Bulma: They were changed by kami, it had nothing to do with me, it's not my responsiblility! (turns to others) Ain't that

true you guys?

(everyone else stares blankly at her, Trunks laughs nervously)

Bulma: (sighs sadly) (perks up getting an idea) Right, think about it, I would never have been able to collect those dragon

balls all alone. (bats eyes) (over-dramatically) I was only 16, a weak and cowardly little girl, I wouldn't have been able to

without Goku's help.

Goku: (freaks out) ME?!

Bulma: Yes you, if Goku didn't come along with me my dream would be gone soon.

Goku: (confused) What dream? I don't understand.

Chuey's Corner:

Goku: (baffled) Especially since Bulma never got that wish granted.

Chuquita: (sweatdrops) (to Veggie) She's just as over-dramatic as YOU are.

Vegeta: (grins) I know, that's one of the reasons why we work so well together. (pauses) What wish?

Goku: Bulma's first which that she never got granted. She was going to wish for "the perfect boyfriend".

Vegeta: (sweatdrops) Well unless that's me that would've messed up the present and future pretty badly.

Goku: (nods) Mmm-hmm! Why who KNOWS what would become of little Veggie! He might've still been off in space somewhere! Or all

alone in a little house with no one to talk to.

Vegeta: (flatly) Not to mention lonely and broke.

Goku: (eyes instantly water) Oh Veggie...

Vegeta: (yelps) Look Kakarrotto, CANDY! (whips out a bowl filled with candy)

Goku: (perks up) OOH! (takes bowl and starts snacking on candy) Thank u little Veggie!

Chuquita: Anyways, today we have the start of our third Valentine's Day Special! And while it does mention a few things from

the previous two, you can read this one and get it without having read the first 2.

Goku: (whips out a box of little candy-hearts) Candy for Veggie?

Vegeta: (sweatdrops) Ah, why not. (reaches into the box and pulls out a candy)

Goku: (glomps Veggie from behind) OOH! What's it say? What's it say?

Vegeta: (face goes bright red) "I heart u". (holds up candy which has "I", the a small heart, and "u" on it)

Goku: Aww, I heart u TOO, little Veggie! (hugs tighter)

Chuquita: I was planning on using some of those candy-hearts sayings as Quotes, but they're not out yet.

Vegeta: (squeezes out of the hug) (gasping for air) Yet you'd think it'd be impossible for Kakarrotto to FIND any.

Goku: Candy is a yummy snack, little Veggie! (takes out another little heart for himself and holds it up) "Cutie". AWW! Thank

u little candy heart how very sweet of you! (tosses in his mouth and swallows whole)

Vegeta: (sweatdrops) That poor candy.

Chuquita: (glances at single pack of candy-hearts on the desk) Maybe we should go buy some more candy, after all this is a

very candy-friendly holiday.

Vegeta: (musing) Some chocolate WOULD be very satisfying about now...

Goku: (reaches out behind Veggie's head and magically pulls a chocolate-bar out from behind him) TA-DA! Here you go little

Veggie! (hands the candy to him)

Vegeta: (confused) Uh, thanks.

Chuquita: I also get to use a special "daily-horoscope" that I read a little while ago under pisces which fits perfectly into

this story. I read it a while ago and I just had to laugh at how nervous that day's prediction would make Veggie :)

(I'm also using the conclusion Rissa of the Saiyajin made about Veggie's sign being scorpio and Goku's being pisces).

Vegeta: (twitches) You have a prediction that affects me, huh?

Chuquita: It was in a prediction for Goku's sign.

Goku: (grins) The FISH! (whips out a random fish and starts taking a bite out of it)

Vegeta: (flatly) Somehow I'm not surprised by THAT representation. (watches Goku scarf the huge fish down like it's nothing)

(thinks outloud) (evil grin) However I do enjoy the fact the my horoscope is represented by a dangerous poisonous creature

with claws and a stinger.

Goku: (tosses more candy-hearts in his mouth)

Vegeta: (sweatdrops) (slightly disheartened) ...which, Kakarrotto could probably swallow whole.

Chuquita: (pats him on the shoulder) Aw, don't feel too bad Veggie. Besides, I'm sure you'll have a good Valentine's Day this

year! (smiles)

Vegeta: Somehow I doubt that.

Goku: (sweetly plops a little party-hat on Veggie's head and blows a party-horn) *FWEEP*!

Chuquita: (snickers at Veggie)

Vegeta: (flushes red) Ohhhh...

Chuquita: Here's part 1 everybody!

Summary: It's Valentine's Day again and this time Veggie's found a surefire way to prevent anything bizarre from happening to

him at home this time, by taking his peasant out to a resturant for a platonic-scheduled-meeting! But what happens when Goku

shows up for the meeting in his oujo costume? Will Veggie still have the guts to go through with his plan, or will a vision

given to Raditsu stop Veggie in his tracks? And what do Bulma & Chi-Chi think of all this?

Chuquita: (grins) Anyone notice all 3 Valentine's Day specials start with the same two words?

Goku: (giggles) Heeheehee.

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

      " Ahh, pink. " Vegeta said as he adjusted the suit he was wearing. The little ouji smirked at himself in the mirror.

While everything else in Capsule Corp had seemingly been turned pink as it did every year on Valentine's day, what the ouji

had on today was almost pink-less. He had on a black tuxedo with a small pink flower in his jacket's pocket, " I'm not going

to be troubled by you this year. For this year, I have a plan. " the little ouji announced as he left his room and journeyed

downstairs.

      " Oooh, nice outfit Vegeta. " Bulma said, impressed as she noticed him from the living room couch, " Planning on

going somewhere? "

      " Actually I am. " he smirked back at Bulma and plopped down on the couch next to her.

      " So where are we going? I'm sure I can get Mirai, Vejitto, or Gogeta to babysit Trunks & Bura. " she asked, planning

to get up.

      Vegeta sweatdropped, " To tell you the truth this is really part of a plot. " he pointed to his suit.

      Bulma frowned, " A plot that has to do with you getting dressed up? " she paused and started to think of what he

could do with it, " Ah, is it some sort of James Bond-ish sort of thing where you have all sorts of super-gadgets on yourself

cleverly disguised as pens, ties, and such? " she smirked, " I DO happen to have created such gadgets you know. "

      " Huh, I hadn't thought of equipping things like that to the suit, " Vegeta said in awe, then grinned evilly, " I

very well may do that, you know, in case I run into Onna today. "

      Bulma sweatdropped, mentally cursing herself, ::What have I done!::

      The ouji reached over and picked up the phone, then cleared his throat.

      " What are you doing? "

      A faint blushline appeared over Vegeta's nose, " I told you, it's part of my plot. " he said, then hit several

buttons on the phone and with slight unease waited for someone to pickup.

      " *bring*bring*bring*. " a pair of sleepy eyes opened up to see a little orange cellphone on the counter next to the

bed. Goku reached over and took the phone.

      " Hello? " the large saiyajin yawned.

      " Kakarrotto, hello. "

      Goku's eyes shot wide open, " Veggie? " he said, his brain still half-asleep.

      " Yes, it's Veggie. Did I catch you at a bad time? " the voice snickered.

      Goku pulled the covers up over his head to keep warm, " Oh NO little Veggie! You can call anytime you like! " he

chirped, his tail wagging aimlessly behind him.

      " Kakay, do you happen to know what today is? " the ouji asked.

      Goku paused, then chuckled, " Aww Veggie, that's such a silly question! " he poked his head out of the covers

momentarily to look at the calender on the wall, " It's Veggietine's Day....VEGGIETINE'S DAY?! " he yelped with surprise,

" OH NO! I completely forgot oh little Veggie I have to find my Veggietine's Day gi and go buy Veggie some chocolates right

a-way. " he prepared to hop out from under the covers in panic.

      " NO! WAIT WAIT WAIT!! " Vegeta waved his free hand in the air, Goku however unable to see this, " Kakarrotto calm

down! "

      " ... " Goku blinked and cocked his head, confused.

      " I was thinking that since my favorite peasant brought me such a wonderful present last "Veggietine's Day" that I

should return the favor THIS year by treating you. " Vegeta explained with a sneaky expression on his face.

      Goku's eyes widened into two huge sparkily blobs, " Veggie is going to crown me his ~*oujo*~? " he said hopefully.

      " WAHH! " Vegeta fell over, " NO I AM NOT GOING TO CROWN YOU MY OUJO!! " he exclaimed, his face bright red. Bulma

shot some Peasant-Repel at him, causing the the redness to instantly disappear. Vegeta covered the mouth of the phone and

glanced over at her, " Thank you. "

      " You're welcome! " Bulma cheerfully shook the bottle.

      Vegeta turned back to the phone, " *A-HEM*. Actually, Kaka-chan, I was thinking more along the lines of taking you

out on a platonic-scheduled-meeting this afternoon. "

      " ...a what? " Goku said, baffled.

      " A platonic-scheduled-meeting, you know, a set time and place where two people would go out somewhere to do

something together--in this case, we'd be going out to eat. " Vegeta explained.

      Goku thought for a moment, his still-sleepy brain trying to register what Vegeta had said. He smiled warmly, " Aww,

I'd luv to go out to eat with my Veggie. "

      " Yeah I thought you would. " the little ouji said smoothly, then noticed Bulma trying to send him a message by

clutching both her hands ontop of one another. Vegeta got the message and paled at the tone of voice he was using, then

coughed a bit and adjusted it back to normal, " I mean, I'm happy you can make it. Is 2:00pm oh-kay? It can be sort of a late

lunch. "

      " Sure! " Goku smiled.

      " Do you, think you could wear something nice? " the ouji shifted nervously in his seat, his cheeks flushing red and

Bulma starting to look a little worried.

      The larger saiyajin pouted, " I don't have to wear a suit, do I? "

      " No! Of course not! Hahaha, " Vegeta laughed nervously, " What I mean is, when you get dressed, could you make sure

it's something clean and nice-looking? "

      Goku grinned, " OH! I can do THAT Veggie! "

      " Great. " he sighed with relief, " Then I'll see you around 1:30pm? "

      " Oh-kay. " the larger saiyajin nodded sweetly.

      " You want me to pick you up or-- "

      " --oh I can get to Veggie's house from home just fine! Veggie does not have to go through all that trouble. "

      " Good. Alright then. I'll ah, see you later. "

      " K! " Goku said happily, then closed his eyes, " Oh BOY! I get to go out to eat with Veggie... "

      :::" Happy Veggietine's Day, Kakarrotto! " Vegeta said cheerfully as he stood infront of a giant mountainous sheet,

then yanked it off to reveal unfathomable mountains of food.

      Goku let out a squeal of joy, " OH THANK YOU, VEGGIE!! "

      " Shall we, Kakay? " the little ouji bowed.

      " HAI! " Goku grinned, then lundged at the food along with the smaller saiyajin and they both began to wildly stuff

their faces.:::

      " Heeheehee, this is gonna be the BEST Veggietine's Day EVER! " Goku beamed.

      " And thus the plan is put into action! " Vegeta proudly dusted his hands off, then turned to Bulma and paled to see

her eyes almost popping out of her head in shock, " Ah...you oh-kay? " he sweatdropped.

      " Oh my God....I can't believe you just did that. " she said in a faraway voice.

      Vegeta blinked, " Did what? "

      " YOU JUST ASKED SON-KUN OUT ON A DATE!! " she exclaimed.

      Vegeta froze in place as a spotlight suddenly appeared over him while everything else seemed to suddenly dim. His

face glowed bright red and he started to slightly shake, " No I didn't. " the ouji said in little voice.

      " Yes you DID, you just used a made-up phrase inplace of "date"! "

      " No I didn't. " he squeaked out again, a feeling of paranoia starting to hover over him.

      " Vegeta, "a set time and place where two people would go out somewhere to do something together" is a DATE! You just

subconsiously blocked out the WORD!! " Bulma said, frantically putting her hands on his shoulders.

      " No I didn't, I, I... " Vegeta paused to think for a moment as it all settled in. He suddenly smacked himself on the

forhead and toppled backward onto the couch, " OH GOD I'M LOSING THE BATTLE!! "

      " No you're not! " she pulled him back upright, " You put "platonic" in there. That says something. " Bulma pointed

out.

      Vegeta smiled weakly, " Hai... "

      " Listen, how about we do this. You know how I mentioned those little gadgets earlier? Well why don't we equip a

two-way microphone somewhere on you so we can communicate back and forth while you have Son-kun on the date. " she offered.

      Vegeta winced, " PLEASE, don't call it that. " his cheeks burned up bright red.

      " Fine. Your "platonic-scheduled-meeting". " she said from memory, then cocked an eyebrow, " Where do you come UP

with all these altenate titles? "

      " I don't know. " Vegeta sighed, still half in shock at the double-sidedness of his plot he hadn't realized til now.

      " Now, by using the two-way microphone, I'll be able to hear what's going on and when you start to slip like you

almost did earlier, I'll use the microphone to tell you you're going too far. " Bulma said.

      " Alright, " Vegeta nodded, then narrowed his eyes, " But what do you get out of it? "

      " Well, I get to reassure myself along with yourself that you don't have any "non-platonic feelings" for your

"peasant" and you get to owe me. " she grinned cheesily.

      " Owe you with what? " Vegeta said, suspicious.

      Bulma smiled, " Oh! I'll think of SOMETHING. "

      " Hm, it would seem my sneakiness is rubbing off on those around me. " Vegeta smirked.

      " Yes, I think it has. " Bulma smirked back.

      " *DING*DONG*DING*DONG*DING*DONG!!! " the doorbell suddenly rang in a fevered panic.

      Both Bulma and Vegeta sweatdropped. Vegeta hopped off the couch and walked over to the still-ringing door, " Well,

it's too panicked to be Kakarrotto. " he slowly opened the door only to be slammed by said door into the wall by a huge blurr

which quickly shut the door behind him.

      " VEGETA!! EVERYTHING'S GONE PINK!!! "

      The ouji peeled himself off the door and waddled backwards dizzily, " Wha? "

      " Raditsu! Hi there! " Bulma waved to him from the couch.

      Raditsu blinked and waved back, then looked to his right and sweatdropped to see he had hit the still-dizzy Vegeta

with the door, " Ah, sorry Vegeta. "

      The smaller saiyajin shook his head, " Raditsu? " he said incrediously.

      Raditsu took a deep breath, " Vegeta, I don't know how to say this, but...WHY IS EVERYTHING SUDDENLY PINK!? " he

exclaimed, then looked around him to see the inside of Capsule Corp was pink as well. The large saiyajin cringed, " Man this

is creepy. " he turned back to Vegeta, " That little Bulma-clone didn't take over the world last night and nobody told me,

right? "

      " She's not a clone she's my daughter. " Vegeta sweatdropped, " And no one has taken over the world. It's

"Veggietine's Day". "

      Raditsu's face went blank, " "Veggietine's Day"? "

      " VALENTINE'S Day, Raditsu. " Bulma corrected, " Goku just calls it "Veggietine's". It's that whole same-letter

similar-word association sort of thing. "

      " But, that doesn't explain the pink. "

      Vegeta groaned, " It's a holiday. This only happens once a year. OH! " he lit up, " You wanna see the special present

Kakarrotto got me LAST year for "Veggietine's Day"? "

      " ...a chunk of lawn? " Raditsu scratched his head at the rather-large amount of grass Vegeta had in a very large

ceramic pot in his bedroom.

      " No, it's a chunk of MY lawn. "

      " ... "

      " FROM BEJITO-SEI!! "

      " *GASP*! " Raditsu gasped, " But--but--how--?

      The ouji puffed his chest out proudly, " Kakarrotto went out into deep-space unbeknownst to the rest of us to the

coordinates where Bejito-sei used to be. Apparently our home wasn't turned into micro-dust but instead is a very large group

of floating land-chunks. Kakarrotto took the biggest one he could fit in the ship and brought it back here to give to me. "

Vegeta took off his boots and hopped ontop of the grass, then wiggled his toes in it, " ISN'T THAT AMAZING!! "

      " That's dedication alright... " Raditsu said in disbelief, then paused, " Uh, can I-- "

      " --of course you can! You're a saiyajin too! " the ouji grinned, then warned, " Take off your boots. "

      Raditsu sweatdropped, then shrugged and did so. He set his boots down and hopped onto the grass as well.

      Vegeta beamed, " Doesn't it feel GREAT to be HOME--in a way. "

      " Yeah....hey you think Kakarrotto could get one of these for me? "

      Vegeta smirked, " I don't see why not, of course, in order to DESERVE one you have to have done something VERY

SPECIAL. "

      " You didn't do anything special he just gave that too you because he luvs you. " Bulma said bluntly.

      Vegeta sweatdropped.

      " Wait a second, why did I come here again? " Raditsu thought outloud, suddenly confused.

      " Chocolate? " Vejitto popped out of nowhere holding a giant candy-bar.

      " It's YUMMY! " Gogeta appeared behind him.

      The other three shook their heads dizzy by the random appearance.

      " No! " Raditsu sweatdropped, then blinked to see both fusions suddenly gone, " ...that was weird. "

      " They have their fair share of kaka-genes, that's for sure. " Vegeta sighed.

      " Oh that's right! I came here to warn you about all the pink...ness. " Raditsu tried to come up with some way to

describe it.

      " Well Raditsu, pink is a mushy color, and "Veggietine's Day" is a celebration of mush. " Vegeta explained.

      " Mush? " Raditsu blinked.

      Bulma sighed, " What Vegeta's trying to say is that VALENtine's Day is a holiday that celebrates love and lovers and

all sorts of romantic things. " she said.

      Raditsu frowned, " But I don't have anybody like that. "

      " Well, if your single you can always enjoy all the fancy candy that's sold this time of year. " she stumbled.

      " OR you could read all the love-letters people send you! " Mirai grinned as he walked by carrying a cart-load of

fan-girl letters.

      " That's the third mush-day special in a row he's gotten all those. " Vegeta sweatdropped.

      " Now I feel sad. " Raditsu sighed.

      " Aww, don't worry. Hey! How about we go back downstairs and get some chocolate? " Bulma said, trying to cheer him

up.

      " Oh-kay. " Raditsu shrugged and followed them out of Vegeta's room after he and Vegeta put their boots back on. He

looked over his shoulder at the ouji, " Hey, why are you wearing those strange clothes anyway? "

      " YOU'RE TAKING KAKARROTTO OUT ON A DATE!! " Raditsu shouted in shock, anger, and disgust, then suddenly his face

went blank and he opened his mouth to say something.

      " "What's a date"? " Vegeta correctly guessed what Raditsu was about to say.

      Raditsu grinned cheesily, " Haha, yeah. "

      " He is SO Son-kun's brother. " Bulma sighed, shaking her head.

      " Well, I'm not really taking Kakarrotto on a "date", " Vegeta whinced at the word, " Actually it's more of a

platonic-scheduled-meeting..ah...well, I'm just taking him out to eat. " he twiddled his thumbs, slightly red.

      " What's the difference between a "date" and a-- "

      " --I can't tell you that. For it would anger you. " Vegeta replied, nodding.

      Raditsu narrowed his eyes, " Is it something painful? "

      " Platonically painful, yes. " Vegeta shifted uneasily.

      " What's with you and the word "platonic" anyway? " Raditsu cocked an eyebrow.

      " Here Raditsu! Have a chocolate! " Vegeta dumped a handful of candy into the larger saiyajin's hands.

      " Thanks! " Raditsu brightened up, then re-narrowed his eyes as he stuffed the candy into his mouth, " Of course you

know I'm not as easily distracted as my brother. " he said, his voice muffled by the candy.

      Vegeta hung his head and groaned, " I was hoping you would be. "

      " Well I'm not. So! You're taking Kakarrotto out somewhere to eat? Taking people out to eat is a date? "

      Bulma laughed, " Of course not! It's like-- "

      " --it's like courting! Only, what I'm doing isn't courting because it's a platonic type of courting which means it

really isn't courting at all! Hahahahaha....ha... " Vegeta quickly spat out, then laughed nervously.

      Raditsu's pupils enlarged to 5 times their size, " You're courting my BROTHER?! "

      " NO! " Vegeta yelped.

      " YOU CAN'T COURT MY BROTHER WHAT ARE YOU THINKING HE'S MY BROTHER AND, HE'S A GUY AND, AND, HE'S ALREADY MARRIED TO

TO THAT WOMAN WHO MAKES FOOD AND HAS THAT THING ON HER HEAD! " Radistu panicked.

      " Bun. " Bulma nodded.

      " Listen Vegeta, " Raditsu put his hands on the smaller saiyajin's shoulders, " I know we're almost extinct but that

doesn't mean you should go out and start courting Kakarrotto!! "

      " I'M NOT COURTING KAKARROTTO!! " Vegeta screamed at the top of his lungs, his face glowing bright red, " I'M TAKING

HIM ON A PLATONIC TRIP TO A FANCY RESTAURANT WHERE WE WILL DINE UPON DELICIOUS EDIBLE TREATS!! " he waved his arms wildly in

the air, then stomped up to his room and slammed the door behind him.

      Raditsu turned uneasily to Bulma, " He ah, he loves YOU, right? "

      " OF COURSE HE DOES! " Bulma gasped, partially offended, " I'm helping him fight this thing. After all he's had an

obsession with Son-kun ever since Son-kun beat him when he came to Earth. That's why he stayed here! That's why he stayed

here long enough for he and I to fall in love. "

      " Without Kakarrotto. " Raditsu checked.

      " WITHOUT "Kakarrotto". "

      " Lalala, lalalala, LALALALALA!! "

      " GOKU-SAN! Are you done yet? " Chi-Chi knocked on the bathroom door, " YOU'VE BEEN IN THE TUB FOR ALMOST 2 HOURS

NOW! YOU'LL GET ALL WRINKLED IN THERE! Besides you're taking up all the hot water. "

      " Hm? " Goku's head popped out from under the bubble-filled water. He looked over at the clock on the wall and yelped

, " 1:04pm! OH NO! VEGGIE! " he lept out of the tub, pulled the plug, grabbed the hair-dryer and blasted out of the room.

      Chi-Chi twitched at the wet soapy trail the large saiyajin left behind him, " GOKU! " she called out.

      He zipped back over to her but was now running in place, " YesChichan? "

      " Towel, Goku. " she sighed and held out two large towels. Goku looked down at himself and laughed.

      " Oops! Hahaha, thank u Chi-chan! " he grinned, putting one towel around his waist and the other on his head, then

dashed back off again.

      " What are you in a hurry for anyway? " Chi-Chi asked, following him at a normal pace.

      " Oh! Veggie called me earlier this morning and asked if I would like to go have a snack with him, Chi-chan! " Goku

chirped.

      Chi-Chi narrowed her eyes, " Oh...the Ouji, huh. "

      " Yup! Only Veggie says I have to get all nice 'n clean cuz it's a special Veggietine's Day TREAT! "

      " Veh--- " Chi-Chi glanced around, then spotted Goku's calender. A childish Vegeta-plush doodle was drawn on the 14th

of Feburary square, " Ehh.. " she shuddered, then walked over to him, " You know Goku, your Ouji-doodles have been getting

just a LITTLE too "cutsy" for comfort lately. " Chi-Chi nodded.

      " I luv my Veggie, Chi-chan! " Goku smiled warmly, blow-drying his hair out.

      " Yeah, I know. " she said dryly, then noticed something by her foot and picked it up to reveal it was a notebook

covered in similar "cutsy" and almost plushie-looking Vegeta-doodles, " Goku, what's this? " Chi-Chi said slowly.

      Goku glanced over his shoulder, then let out a shriek, " EEP! MY DIARY!! " he quickly snatched it from her and held

it behind his back.

      Chi-Chi's eyes widened in surprise, " YOU have a diary? "

      Goku nodded shyly.

      " Aww, how sweet.....canIseeit? " Chi-Chi held her hand out.

      " NO! " Goku held it tightly against his back, " Chi-chan is not a-llowed to see the insides of my lil book and

neither is Veggie or anybody else for it contains super-secret things that I am not a-llowed to think about. " his cheeks

flushed pink.

      Chi-Chi instantly paled, " What do you mean things you're not allowed to think about. What's in there? " she zipped

around behind him only to find the book now gone, " Go-chan? " she walked around back infront of him only to see a clueless

look on his face while the blow-dryer mindlessly blew his wet soggy hair in all directions, " Huh.. " she watched his

suspiciously, " Listen you. As long as you're going to the Ouji's you better be careful. " Chi-Chi said, then perked up,

" Hey! How about I drive you there in the Ouji-car that little creature bought for you for Christmas? "

      " NO! No Chi-chan it is alright. I'll just teleport there. After all I am running late and if we drive there then I

will be even MORE late! "

      " Uh-huh. " Chi-Chi nodded, " So, when will you be back? "

      " I am not sure. "

      Chi-Chi twitched slightly. Goku was obviously being pulled into another one of the ouji's schemes. But if she were to

snap at him now it would only hurt his feelings and make him an easier target for the ouji....and she WAS trying to be a bit

more trusting. Chi-Chi sighed in defeat, " Alright. Go eat with the Ouji, just be sure to be back at a reasonable hour. And

if he starts doing any funny stuff, " she narrowed her eyes, " Then you come straight home, understand? "

      " Hai Chi-chan. " Goku nodded obediently as he watched her leave the room.

      Chi-Chi waited until he closed the door and she was out of hearing range. She walked into the kitchen where Gohan and

Goten sat at the table, then smiled, " Gohan sweetie, have you seen Mommy's spying equipment? "

      Gohan sweatdropped, " Oh here we go again. "

      " And so I have decided to give my Veggie my special little gift after we are done snacking. " Goku scribbled in the

little notebook as he finished his sentence next to a sleepy-looking Vegeta-doodle. The saiyajin's tail wagged happily back

and forth behind him as he closed the book and glanced over at the little wrapped Veggietine's Day gift he had made. He

put his diary away and picked up the small package which wasn't anymore than a foot tall. Goku beamed and hugged the package

tightly, " I just KNOW little Veggie is going to LUV you! " he sat up and adjusted his sleeves, then prepared to teleport,

" Ready to go lil Veggietine's gift 'o mine? "

      " ... "

      " Off we go then! " Goku said excitedly, then teleported out of sight.

      " There. " Bulma said and stepped back to admire her handywork. She had placed a mini-microphone onto Vegeta's jacket

which blended in surprisingly well, " Now it works like your basic walkie-talkie. I can hear everything that's going on

through it all the time. If I want to talk to you I hit the button on MY mini-microphone. " she pointed to one that was on

her own shirt.

      " Why are you WEARING it? You're not going out anywhere? " Vegeta blinked.

      " Hey it needs to look professional, alright? "

      " Alright. " he shrugged.

      " And if you want to talk to me, you hit the button on yours. Understand? " she smiled.

      " Understood. " Vegeta said, then faultered for a moment, " But do you really think we should? It would be unfair to

do this to Kakarrotto you know. "

      Bulma sighed, " Vegeta do you WANT to accidently say something that'll make Son-kun fall head over heels for you? "

      " NO!! " Vegeta's face turned bright red, " But, I really don't think I'd be using a romantic tone of voice around

Kakarrotto anyway. "

      " You never know, you might have a slip of the tongue and get stuck for something to replace it with and luckily

you'll have me there to come up with it! " Bulma pumped her fist in the air, then pointed out, " Besides you get really

affectionate after a few drinks and then you'll really need my help. Why I'll even rush out there to the resturant and drag

your half-conscious body away to help you avoid any further embarassment. "

      Vegeta sweatdropped, " I'm not going to be drinking. You know I don't do that unless I'm here at home and in a

kaka-free environment--i.e, during evening when Kakarrotto goes to sleep. " he folded his arms, blushing lightly, " Besides,

if you were to "rush out there" you'd have to run halfway across West City! "

      " That's right, I never asked you were you were going! Gah! How could I have forgotten something so crucial to the

plan! " Bulma scholded herself by smacking her hand against her forhead, " Where ARE you going? "

      The ouji's cheeks turned red and he looked down at his boots.

      " Vegeta? " she said, slightly worried, " Where are you taking Son-kun to eat? "

      The blush grew brighter and more widespread.

      " Umm, you know what, it's oh-kay. You don't have to tell me. You know why? Because I trust you, haha. " she laughed

nervously, " I trust you Vegeta and I trust that you know what you're doing with this plot of yours... "

      " ... "

      " ... "

      " But take this bottle of Peasant-Repel just in case! " she handed him a pint-sized bottle of the green spray.

      " *DING*DONG*! *DING*DONG*DING*DONG*DING*DONG*!! "

      " Kakarrotto. " Vegeta looked up, recognizing the cheerful ring at once. He grabbed something off the side of his

bed and held it in one arm.

      " FLOWERS?! " Bulma gawked.

      " Well I--you don't expect me to ruin Kakarrotto's appetite with candy before we even get to the resturant, now do

you? " he said, then walked out of the room and down the steps.

      " Ah, maybe you should at least remove a FEW of those. It's a little, ah, excessive. " Bulma tried to come up with a

word that would fit the huge mound of various wildflowers the ouji had wrapped up. She paused for a moment, " I mean,

normally when you give someone flowers on Valentine's Day it's usually roses. "

      Vegeta smirked, " Hai, but you see, Kakay's too sweet and carefree that I thought the wildflowers would suit him

better than a bunch of roses. "

      Bulma nervously pressed a button on her microphone and Vegeta yelped as he felt a small zap.

      " WHAT WAS THAT FOR! " the ouji twitched.

      " You were going off again. I had a small electric-pulser attached to your microphone in case of emergancies. " Bulma

explained.

      Vegeta sweatdropped, " Uh-huh.....thank you. " he added in at the end.

      " You're welcome. " Bulma smiled, " ....he's at the door you know. "

      The ouji gulped, " I know. "

      " ...aren't, you going to answer it? "

      " Yes. "

      " ... "

      " ... "

      " Hey Vegeta I can get the door if you want? " Raditsu sweatdropped from one of the chairs in the living room.

      " No, it's alright, really! I can do this! " Vegeta brushed it off nervously, then took a deep breath, reached for

the front door and opened it, " Kakarrotto? "

      " VEGGIE! " Goku exclaimed happily and glomped onto him, " Happy VEGGIETINE'S DAY, VEGGIE! " he let go, " I gotcha a

present. It's not as big as last years but I made it myself! " Goku held out a little foot-tall wrapped item, " But don't

open it til we get where we're going because it's REALLY SPECIAL! " he grinned, " So! Where ARE we going? "

      Vegeta shook his head clear from being suddenly bombarded by the larger saiyajin, " I'll tell you on the way there. "

he said, then peeked outside and sweatdropped to see the limo he had given Goku sitting by the curb, " Well, I guess we're

riding there. "

      " Yup! " Goku chriped. Vegeta glanced over at Goku suddenly shrieked.

      " WAHHH! YOU'RE WEARING THAT, THAT, THING!!! "

      Goku looked down at his saiyajin oujo outfit, " Veggie said for me to wear something nice. " he smiled, then pouted,

" How could Veggie have missed my pretty costume on my way in? "

      " His nerves are a little shot. " Bulma came downstairs over to them, " He did something earlier that pretty much

just put him on edge a bit. "

      " Aww, I am SORRY, Veggie. " Goku said comfortingly, giving the ouji a warm hug.

      " It's....oh-kay... " Vegeta stammered.

      " Maybe you and Vegeta should stay here for a little while until he starts to feel, um, not as nervous. " Bulma

suggested.

      Vegeta nodded his head, shaking slightly, " Good idea. I'll get some hot cocoa. "

      Goku smiled, " Oh-kay Veggie! " he and Bulma sat down on the couch.

      " What's in the package? " Bulma asked, pointing to the little gift sitting on Goku's lap.

      " Oh, it's just a lil something I made for Veggie. "

      " Oh....can you tell me what it is? "

      " Yup! " Goku nodded.

      Bulma leaned in as if waiting to hear a secret.

      Goku whispered, " It's a surprise. "

      " WAHHH! " Bulma fell over while Goku giggled.

      " *tap*, *tap*tap*. " Goku paused from giggling when he felt something tapping his shoulder. He looked to his right

to see Raditsu standing infront of him with his eyes wide in confusion and fright, " NIICHAN! Hello! I didn't see you when I

came in. "

      " Kakarrotto, I don't mean to alarm you but uh, you know you're wearing an authentic saiyajin oujo uniform, don't

you? " he asked, worried.

      " Yes. " Goku replied, then grinned, " Isn't it pretty! " he held out his arms to show off the sleeves.

      Raditsu twitched, " Yeah it's, it's "pretty" alright. " he shifted in place a bit, " Did Vegeta give you that? "

      Goku blinked for a moment, then burst into laughter, " HAHAHAHAHA! Oh Ditsu, you're so funny! Of course not! FUTURE

Veggie and FUTURE me gave it to me a lil while ago. "

      " THAT'S POSSIBLE FUTURE ME AND POSSIBLE FUTURE YOU!! " Vegeta snapped from the kitchen.

      " Well he's sounding more like himself again. " Bulma said dryly.

      " "Possible" Future Vegeta, gave that to you? "

      " Yup! He and possible future me dropped it off back when me 'n Veggie's tails got married! " Goku said happily.

      Radistu paled, " Your TAILS got married.... " he looked back at his own tail and sweatdropped, then turned back to

Goku, " My tail says he wishes Bibishii and Nango the best of luck. " Raditsu said flatly, embarassed.

      Goku's tail waved happily, Goku smiled at Raditsu, " Bibishii says thank you! She and Veggiestail get along so well!"

      Raditsu calmed down a little bit and sat on the couch with Goku and Bulma, " ....so, "possible" future, huh? "

      Goku nodded, " Yup! In the "possible" future, me and Veggie build a big spaceship and go on amazing space adventures

after we bring Bejito-sei back and all the other saiyajins with the dragonballs and you and Jitto and Goggie go back to live

on Bejito-sei! "

      Raditsu blinked, surprised, " The dragonballs can fix our homeplanet?! Then why haven't we wished it BACK by now?! "

      " Because, " Vegeta said, walking back into the room drinking the hot-cocoa and seemingly back to normal, " It would

take a spaceship powerful enough to actually get us all TO the planet. I doubt Kakarrotto nor I could teleport there from

this far away. We'd need either the spaceship I have in planning or an actual saiyajin spaceship--which we don't have. "

      " What about mine and yours and Nappa's and Kakarrotto's? " Raditsu asked.

      Vegeta sighed, " Mine was blown up with Namek, Nappa's was accidentally blown up by Bulma-- "

      " --hey I didn't MEAN to! I was TRYING to get it to lift-off. " Bulma twitched.

      " --Kakarrotto's was transformed into a spaceship that used him to get to Namek which ALSO exploded there and yours..

..wait a second what DID happen to yours? "

      Raditsu paused, thinking back to where it had landed, then groaned, " Oh man that's right, Gohan blew a huge hole in

the glass when he escaped from it. " he hung his head.

      " Well, I'm not ready to wish everybody back just yet anyway. We have to plan these things out you know. " Vegeta

explained.

      Raditsu nodded, dishearted, then looked up, " You're not "planning" on making my brother your oujo, are you? "

      Vegeta nearly spit out his hot-cocoa, " OF COURSE NOT! That only happened in the possible-future because I caught a

kaka-germ-disease in that timeline. "

      " Which WON'T happen in THIS timeline because I invented something to stop it! " Bulma cheerfully held up the

bottle of Peasant-Repel.

      " Ditsu-kun, do YOU have any germies left? Veggie has one. " Goku said, holding up some of his own germs.

      Vegeta smirked, " I have MORE than one NOW, it's, just that with the exception of the original remaining germ, the

others are slightly tainted by kaka-germ-dna. "

      " ....tainted? " Raditsu blinked.

      " My original germ is all blue. The others are blue with red tails. "

      " Oh. " Raditsu sweatdropped, " I have SOME germs leftover. Freeza wasn't as therough with removing mine as he was

Vegeta's. " he searched around and spotted several of his germs sleeping on his shoulder, " There's about 20 of them left. "

      Goku whipped out a magnifying glass and ooh'd at the dark-red colored germs, " AWWW, how kawaii! " he said as he

looked at the little Raditsu-germs.

      " I still find it uncomfortable to see you wearing that. " Raditsu sweatdropped at the outfit Goku had on.

      " You think YOU find it uncomfortable, HA. " Vegeta laughed.

      " So he's not gonna end up as your oujo. " Raditsu checked.

      " If I'm lucky he won't. " Vegeta grumbled.

      Goku's eyes instantly watered up. The other two saiyajins sweatdropped.

      " Ah, I didn't mean that in an insulting way, Kakarrotto! " Vegeta waved his arms in the air, " And the outfit still

looks umm, nice on you anyway. "

      Goku instantly went back to grinning, " Aww, thank u Veggie! " he clasped his hands together, " I am having a HAPPY

Veggietine's Day so far! "

      " So am I! " Mirai grinned as he walked by with his wheelbarrow full of cards.

      " And so are WE! " Vejitto chirped as he walked by coming from the other direction carrying a wheelbarrow with cards

that piled up to the ceiling.

      " WAHHH! " Mirai fell over, " WHERE DID YOU GUYS GET ALL THOSE?! "

      Gogeta's head popped out from inside the huge pile, " Oh this is just Jitto's cards, mine are over there! " he poined

to the hallway where a clone of Vejitto's wheelbarrow sat containing a similar gigantic pile, " We are going off to read

them! "

      " Hai! We are both very LUVED! " Vejitto grinned as his tail wagged excitedly behind him.

      " Aww, congradulations little fusion-babies 'o mine! " Goku clasped his hands together in awe.

      " Thank you Toussan! " Vejitto chirped.

      " Thank you Kaasan! " Gogeta added.

      Mirai looked at his pile, then at Vejitto's gigantic one, then back at his own, " Ouch my pride. " he hung his head,

saddened.

      " Hey I haven't even gotten one of, of THOSE yet! " Raditsu pointed to the pile of letters and some wrapped gifts.

      " Aww, poor Uncle Ditsu! " Gogeta pouted, then hopped out of the pile of letters and gave Raditsu a quick hug.

      " I'm sure you will get a present or a letter SOON, Uncle Ditsu. " Vejitto added.

      " Yeah, we like you, and the rest of Toussan's family likes you, and so does Kaasan's family and that's a whole.. "

Gogeta thought for a moment as he counted, " 14 people! " he held up that many fingers.

      Raditsu pulled a double-take at the random addition of fingers to Gogeta's hand, then got confused when the fusion

suddenly had 10 fingers again, " ...umm, thanks. " his head felt dizzy.

      " Come on Goggie, let's go open 'um! " Vejitto said happily. Gogeta ran back to grab his own wheelbarrow, " We've

NEVER gotten all these letters before, I wonder how people know where we live? Or how they know us? "

      " Or how many of them packed yummy sweets in the envelopes with the cards! " Gogeta beamed.

      " YEAH! " Vejitto grinned, then bent down, " Race you to the room! "

      " Hai! " Gogeta nodded and they both rushed off like a blurr.

      Mirai looked at his letters and waddled off.

      " NOW you see you shouldn't brag about such things. " Bulma said to him as he left, " You're just like your Toussan

when it comes to bragging about certain things. "

      " HEY! " Vegeta twitched, " I didn't get any letters or gifts yet! "

      Goku plopped his present to the ouji along with a little envelope on Vegeta's lap and smiled sweetly at him. Vegeta

laughed nervously.

      " Uh, heh-heh, heh...thank you, Kakarrotto. "

      Goku smiled contently.

      " Oh you don't have to worry about that, Vegeta. " Bulma said, " I've got a letter and gift for you when you get back

from your lunch with Son-kun. "

      Vegeta smirked, " Really? " he said, then looked down at the little gift on his lap and blushed lightly, " I can only

imagine what's in here. " he poked the gift.

      " Something ~*special*~. " Goku grinned.

      Vegeta reached to open it.

      " NONOTYET! " Goku gasped, grabbing the gift and letter. He whispered to the ouji, " You have to wait for later

Veggie. "

      " Why? " Vegeta asked.

      " Be--because it's a special lil gift and a special lil letter, that's why. " he nodded while holding both items

protectively.

      Vegeta shrugged, " Alright. I'll open it later then. "

      " Good. " Goku replied, " Veggie ready to go now? "

      Vegeta stood up, then looked back at Bulma who determindly pointed to her microphone. Vegeta took a deep breath,

" Hai, let's go Kakarrotto. "

      " YAY! " Goku cheered, dashing for the door, " I'm gonna go eat with Veggie! I'm gonna go eat with Veggie! Come on

Veggie! Hurry up! " he opened the door and hopped up and down in-place.

      Vegeta took one last look back at the others, then left the house after Goku and closed the door shut.

      Bulma lept to her feet, " Quick, we have to hurry! "

      " Huh? " Raditsu blinked, confused.

      " These microphones are only prototypes so they don't work over that long of a distance. MEANING, " Bulma whipped out

spy-like dark glasses, hats, and trenchcoats, " We have to tail them! "

      " When did I get involved in this? " Raditsu sweatdropped.

      " You didn't. I'm recruiting you. You think you could go get the fusions? They're coming too. " Bulma put her

spy-gear, then handed a similar amount of items to Raditsu only in his size.

      Raditsu shrugged and went up the stairs, " Oh well, not like I'm doing anything else today. " he knocked on the door

to the room the fusions had gone in, " Hey? Vejitto! Gogeta! " he opened the door only to sweatdrop at the sight of both

fusions already in the tan trenchcoats, hats, and dark sunglasses; both of them grinning widely, " Oh boy. " Raditsu

sweatdropped.

      " We are ready to help Mommy, Uncle Ditsu! " Vejitto saluted him.

      " Yup! " Gogeta added, nodding contently.

      " Well, " Raditsu put the sunglasses on, " Let's go! "

      " Wow...I forgot how, BIG it is in here. " Vegeta said in awe of the now present-less insides of the limo.

      " Heehee, it's LOTS of fun, little Veggie! " Goku said as he ran about inside the limo and then took a bellyflop of

a dive onto one of the long plush seats, " Hahahaha, mmmMMMMmmmm... " the large saiyajin snuggled into the warm seat, " It's

so nice 'n comfy in here little Veggie. We should have lunch in the limo! "

      Vegeta sweatdropped. He shook his head and walked up to the driver's seat to punch in the location of the resturant,

then walked back to where Goku had been laying and was now sitting and sat down next to him.

      " So Veggie! Where are we going? "

      Vegeta smirked, " We're GOING to one of the fanciest resturants in the city, La'Amor. THAT'S why I told you to wear

something NICE. " he turned to Goku in the oujo outfit.

      Goku grinned widely.

      Vegeta grimaced, " I can't believe I'm actually getting used to seeing you in that. "

      Goku's eyes sparkled and he opened his mouth to speak, " Ah--- "

      " --which does not have ANY coalition to your chances of becoming my Oujo. " Vegeta quickly injected.

      Goku's eyes teared up and the large saiyajin pouted.

      Vegeta sighed, " I'm SORRY I hurt your feelings, Kakarrotto. " he said dryly, then looked back up at Goku to see the

saiyajin was now content again. He looked around the room and shook a bit from the cold. Vegeta turned the heat up and went

back to his seat, " God it's COLD. " he shuddered.

      " Would Veggie like to share my blanket? "

      Vegeta blinked, then looked over to see Goku with a very large fleece blanket over his chest, stomach, and lap.

Vegeta's cheeks went mildly red, then went back to normal when he remembered the bottle of Peasant-Repel he had with him,

" Alright Kakarrotto. I'm feeling a little adventurous today. " the ouji cracked his knuckles, then slid close enough so the

blanket could cover him without him touching Goku. Vegeta yawned from the heat, " Ahhh... " he sighed happily and drifted off

to sleep.

      " Heh, I forgot how much FUN spying can be! This reminds me of when we used to spy on enemies--only we never got to

wear loose comfortable clothing like this. " Raditsu grinned.

      " I like the sunglasses! " Gogeta chirped.

      " I think my hat's too big. " Vejitto tried to adjust it.

      " Shush! " Bulma whispered. The quartet were on the sidewalk by Goku's new limo, which, due to the heavy flow of

traffic, was pretty much at a standstill. She pushed the button on her walkie-talkie-mini-mic, " Vegeta? Vegeta? "

      " Zzzzz....ZZZzzzz... " a slow steady around of snoring came from the other end of the microphone.

      Bulma sweatdropped, " He's SLEEPING? "

      " Well Mommy was pretty upset earlier. Maybe he's just sleeping it off. " Vejitto thought outloud.

      " Poor Toussan. " Gogeta pouted.

      Vejitto waddled up to the limo and pressed his face against it to try and see inside, " Huh, tinted windows. "

      " Eep! Vejitto! " Bulma quickly grabbed him by the collar and pulled him back, " Just because Vegeta's asleep doesn't

mean Son-kun is too! What if he sees you! "

      " Sorry Bulma-san. " Vejitto grinned.

      Bulma sighed, " It's been way too long since I've had to get involved in this sort of thing. " she said, then turned

back around and gasped, " ACK! Where's Gogeta! "

      Raditsu blinked cluelessly, " Huh? "

      " Raditsu where'd Gogeta go to! " Bulma said, starting to get worried, " I can't have you guys wandering around in

random directions and then have to explain you to whoever you run into! " she waved her arms in the air.

      " Ah, you lost Vejitto. " Raditsu pointed the arm that she had been holding onto Vejitto's color with.

      Bulma turned to her left and twitched to see the fusion now gone as well, " Oh man. " she quickly darted her head

around, trying to spot them, " How do they DO that?! "

      " There! " Raditsu said suddenly, pointing down the street. They ran over to the fusions, who had their faces smushed

against the glass window to an expensive pastry store. In the window advertisement sat dozens of fancy-looking treats;

drenched in chocolate, some layed with sugars and others a mix of fruit and whipped cream and the biggest variety of sweets

you could possibly imagine. Very long trails of drool dribbled out the side of Vejitto and Gogeta's mouths.

      " Hey! What are you guys doing over here? We have to help Vegeta! " Bulma sweatdropped.

      " We did not have any lunch. " Gogeta said, his eyes deadlocked on the pastries and candies.

      " And the pastries look so yummy...I bet they taste almost as good as MOMMY'S pastries... " Vejitto murmured.

      Raditsu looked back to see the limo to see the stop-light had turned green and it was now moving again in traffic,

" Hey guys? "

      " Listen, here. Here's 20 dollars just go get yourselves some pastries and-- " Bulma sweatdropped to see both fusions

now with their arms full of the snack.

      " Thank you Bulma-san! " they chirped at once. Bulma looked in the window to see the pastries that had been there now

gone.

      " Uh, you're welcome. " she scratched her head, baffled. She glanced at Raditsu, " You didn't see how they did that,

did you? "

      Raditsu sweatdropped, " I was kinda paying attention to the limo. "

      Bulma looked back to see the limo was about to round the corner, " ACK! EVERYONE HURRY! " she shouted and ran down

the street after the limo, the fusions and Raditsu behind her.

      The quartet raced down the 2nd street when Gogeta glanced harmlessly across the street and gasped at another quartet

running down the opposite side of the street in the same direction. He tapped Vejitto on the shoulder, " Oy, 'Jitto! Look

over there! "

      Vejitto glanced over and sweatdropped to see Chi-Chi, Gohan, Goten, and Kinto'un running, " Chi-Chi's here?! "

      " Kaasan must have told her about Toussan treating him. " Gogeta concluded.

      Vejitto twitched, " This can't be good. " he popped a strange pastry in his mouth, then smiled, " I stand corrected!"

he started licking the remains of the pastry's leftover chocolate off his fingers.

      " It's a good thing we have these outfits on. If Onna saw us she'd think we were up to something. " Gogeta said,

worried.

      " We are. " Vejitto replied.

      " Yeah but, she'd think we were up to something BAD. "

      " OHHH. "

      " Come on Kinto'un! Faster! I KNOW you can move faster than that! " Chi-Chi exclaimed.

      " Kaasan it's not very safe to ride Kinto'un in the city like this. People are staring. " Gohan sweatdropped.

      " Well how ELSE do you prepose I follow them! If one of you gave me a ride I'd be slowing you down, and if I ran on

my own I'd be so beat by the time I got to wherever we're going that I wouldn't have enough energy to exact revenge upon the

Ouji for whatever he's about to try and pull on my Go-chan! " she stubbornly explained.

      Gohan sighed, " I hear ya, Kaasan. "

      " That's better. " Chi-Chi smiled.

      Goten glanced across the street confusedly at the other group of people running, " Must be a race. "

      " Awww, heeheeheeheehee. " Goku giggled as he played with the sleeping ouji's hair with his fingers, " Veggie's hair

is so soft and nice! " he rubbed Vegeta's head, spreading kaka-germs all over the little saiyajin's scalp; which, in Vegeta's

point of view, was not a very good idea.

      Vegeta involuntarily batted Goku's hand away and the larger saiyajin let out another parade of laughter.

      Vegeta opened his eyes and slowly sat up only to find he was no longer on the seat of the car but on a warm squishy

object. The ouji sleepily layed back into a similar substance. He stretched his arms out only to have a larger pair of arms

suddenly come out from behind him and hug him tightly. Vegeta twitched and looked up to see his hair messy and out of place

and Goku smiling down at him warmly.

      " Kakarrotto. "

      " Little Veggie. "

      Vegeta squeezed out of the hug and whipped out the Peasant-Repel, then promptly sprayed himself with it. Vegeta put

the peasant-repel away and smirked at the larger saiyajin, " You see Kakarrotto, thanks to Bulma's BRILLAINT invention, my

fear of waking up covered in kaka-germs has been lessened quite a bit--as long as I have this substance with me to quickly

remove the germs anyway. "

      Goku tilted his head for a moment, then grinned, " Does that mean it's alright for me to give Veggie smoochies now? "

      " WAHH! " Vegeta fell over, then lept to his feet and held the bottle of Peasant-Repel out infront of him like a

weapon, " NO! NO SMOOCHING!! " he yelped, then narrowed his eyes, " That's how they get you. If the kaka-germs get into my

bloodstream I'm DONE FOR, Kakarrotto. " the ouji warned, then held his bottle closer, " Not even my trusty Peasant-Repel

could save me from the mushy-wrath of the kaka-germs THEN! "

      " Oh. " Goku said, confused, then started to fiddle with the wrapped present he made for the ouji.

      " So uh, do I get to open that now? " Vegeta asked curiously.

      Goku laughed, " Oh Veggie of course not! It's for after we have lunch but before we have dessert! Like an inbetween

course present! "

      " Hmm. " Vegeta stared at the gift, then walked over to the navigation system at the front end of the limo, " It

appears we're halfway there. " he walked back to where Goku was, " Kakarrotto, when we get to the resturant will you do me a

favor and act polite until we at least get to our seats? It's a very fancy resturant after all. "

      Goku beamed, " Oh I can be VERY po-lite, little Veggie! "

      Vegeta narrowed his eyes, " As polite as your possible future counterpart? "

      " Mmm-hmm! " Goku nodded, " I will TRY, little Veggie! "

      " Good. " Vegeta said, then watched as the larger saiyajin tried to warm his arms up some more. The ouji looked

around for a moment even though no one could see them through the thick, darkened windows of the limo, " Here. " he took off

his jacket and put around the back of Goku's shoulders. The larger saiyajin's cheeks turned pink, " Any better?--ih--in a

PLATONIC way of course. "

      " That is very sweet of you, little Veggie. " Goku said, his cheeks still flushed.

      " Hey, ANYTHING for my FAVORITE peasant. " Vegeta sat down next to him. Goku's eyes widened into two big sparkily

blobs. Vegeta faultered, blushing lightly, " Ahh, anything can be done PLATONICALLY for my favorite peasant. " he corrected

himself but Goku kept staring. Vegeta shifted a bit and fixed his messed-with hair, " ...hai. "

      Goku smiled, " Chi---chan, taught me that it is nice to do this for people you like. I have given her my jacket

bee-fore, only, I don't have many jackets so it's been a while. "

      " ...I could buy you a really nice jacket if you like. Maybe even a winter coat. You know, something that'll keep

that large peasant body of yours warm and toasty in the harsh winter weather. " Vegeta boasted proudly.

      " Aww, little Veggie is so GIVING today! " Goku gushed, clasping his hands together.

      " Heh, well it IS "Veggietine's Day" you know. A day where all participate in activities of mush with their

platonically-loved ones. " the ouji snuggled into his seat some more.

      Goku smiled warmly and his tail wagged back and forth.

      " INFACT, " Vegeta closed his eyes while still smirking, " I even sent forth a special request to the resturant ahead

of the time to make a personalized cake for you. "

      Goku's eyes widened with delight.

      " And while they naturally wouldn't have enough ingrediants to make a cake to COMPLETELY satisfy your awesome

saiyajin hunger, I think you'll find that this particular cake will be just as memorable anyway. " Vegeta grinned, then

opened his eyes just in time to see a content-smiling Goku rapidly scribbling in a little notebook, the bright pink glow on

his face easing up the more he released his energy onto the page. Vegeta blinked and looked over at him, " What's that? " he

pointed to the book.

      Goku quickly finished and whipped the book out of sight. He grinned at Vegeta, " It's my diary. I have decided to

write down how much fun I am having on Veggietine's Day with my Veggie this year so that I can remember how wonderful it is

whenever I go back to read it. " he said warmly.

      Vegeta's face flushed red, " Oh, wow...that's really ah, heartwarming, Kakay. "

      " Hee. " Goku grinned.

      The front of the car started to beep as the limo came to a complete halt.

      Vegeta got up, " Well, looks like we're here. " he bent slightly and reached out to the larger saiyajin with one hand

while the other was at his side, " Your hand, Kakay? "

      " Heeheehee. " Goku held it out and Vegeta helped him up, " Oh VEGGIE. " his cheeks glowed bright pink, " You are the

SWEETEST little Veggie in the ~*whole*wide*world*EVER*~! "

      Vegeta beamed proudly, " Why thank you, Kakarrotto. "

      " HERE?! He's taking Son-kun HERE to eat?! " Bulma gasped as she, the fusions, and Raditsu hid in the bushes by the

resturant, " La'Amor is the the most expensive, fanciest resturant in the entire CITY!! It's someplace you'd only go to on

IMPORTANT, SPECIAL OCCATIONS! "

      " Kakarrotto DID get him that chunk of our homeplanet back. That's pretty important. " Raditsu pointed out.

      Bulma sweatdropped at him.

      " Well we ALL miss our homeplanet! " Raditsu said.

      " Hai!! It is so SAD our homeplanet blown into millions of little pieces! " Vejitto proclaimed, saddened.

      " *sniffle* Our poor poor home and all the wonderful sights that were there to be seen! " Gogeta added, sniffling.

      " You two have never been to Bejito-sei! You were born here! " Raditsu sweatdropped.

      Both fusions froze in place.

      " Oh yeah! " Vejitto chirped. Raditsu twitched, " We still miss not being able to go there though. "

      Bulma adjusted her microphone, then pressed the little button on it, " Vegeta? Vegeta can you hear me? "

      " Hm? " a confused reply came from the other side of the microphone.

      " Vegeta! "

      " Oh! Uh, " Vegeta looked at the microphone.

      " What's that on your jacket little Veggie? " Goku tilted his head, confused.

      Vegeta grinned nervously, then patted the larger saiyajin's hand, " Hold on a second, will you Kakay? "

      " K! " Goku said cheerfully and with that Vegeta zipped across to the front end of the limo.

      " Bulma, what is it? " Vegeta whispered into the microphone.

      " I'm just checking to make sure the microphone works. " Bulma explained, " Now why are you HERE! "

      " Eh? " Vegeta got a completely baffled look on his face, " What are you talking about? "

      " La'Amor!! WHY DID YOU PICK THAT RESTURANT! DON'T YOU KNOW HOW EXTREMELY FANCY THAT PLACE IS!! " Bulma exclaimed.

      Vegeta sweatdropped, " Of course I know it's fancy. I wanted someplace fancy to bring Kakay to get his snack. "

      Bulma groaned, " No, Vegeta it's just that, well, unbelievably fancy resturants and Son-kun don't exactly mix. "

      " Are you implying that Kakay's table manners leave much to be desired? " the little ouji said, slightly insulted.

      " Yes but that's not what I was implying. I was implying that Son-kun won't know what to do in that resturant. I only

go there on business meetings and sometimes if Capsule Corp is having a special celebration party or something. Since Son

hasn't been in there before he'll be confused. " Bulma tried to explain.

      " Well that's alright, I know what to do so I can just teach Kakay as we go along. " Vegeta replied, then smiled over

at Goku, " In't that right Kakay-chan? " he said sweetly.

      Goku let out a bundle of giggles at the tone of the ouji's voice.

      Bulma cocked an eyebrow, " Vegeta are you being cutsy with him on purpose or did you forget to spray somewhere? "

      Vegeta folded his arms and sat back in the driver's seat, " I'm trying to be nice to my peasant on Veggietine's Day,

there's nothing wrong with THAT is there? "

      " ~Whee-heehee~! " a little voice squealed from above Vegeta as something slide out of his hair, down his

widow's-peak and landed ontop of his nose, " ~*Veggie*~! " the kaka-germ said cheerfully.

      Vegeta twitched uneasily and quickly flicked the germ off his nose, then bent down and sprayed his head for any

germs. Sure enough, dozens of them began sliding off his head and onto the floor. The ouji narrowed his eyes over at Goku,

" When were you rubbing my head!? "

      " When Veggie was sleepin! " Goku pointed out.

      Vegeta hit the button on the microphone again, " Well whadda ya know? Kakarrotto HAD rubbed a whole bunch of

kaka-germs into my hair. "

      " Hee~~ " Goku grinned from his seat.

      " Ahhh, no wonder you were defending him like that. " Bulma sighed with relief.

      Vegeta sweatdropped, " It's not like I don't care for him. "

      " I CARE FOR YOU TOO, VEGGIE! " Goku gushed from his seat.

      Vegeta's face turned bright red. He shook it off and cleared his throat, " Now, I'm going to leave with Kakarrotto

now, are you oh-kay with that? "

      " Alright. "

      " Good. And don't worry I won't have any trouble at all. Kakarrotto promised he'd be polite. Hai, Kakay? " Vegeta

glanced over at Goku who gave a content little nod, " See? "

      " Well, good-luck Vegeta. And don't worry, I'll be watching! " Bulma said determindly.

      Vegeta blinked, " How can you be watching me you're back at home---and how did you know where I was taking

Kakarrotto!? " he gawked.

      " Ah, uhhh.. " Bulma trailed off, then snapped her fingers as an idea popped into her head, " HA! I overheard you

when you were on the phone ordering that cake for Son-kun! "

      " Oh. " Vegeta said, " Goodbye then. "

      " Goodbye! " she said cheerfully.

      Vegeta unpressed the button, then turned and froze in place, " Wait a second, I didn't order the cake over the phone,

I ordered it when I was inside the resturant! " he looked back at Goku, who just smiled.

      " Heeheehee. "

      " Huh... " Vegeta thought for a moment, " Well, come on Kakarrotto. " he shut the car down and took the keys. Vegeta

helped the larger saiyajin up and went to open the door, " Now remember, be polite, oh-kay? "

      " K! " Goku nodded sweetly and the two left the limo.

      " Goku-san! There he is! " Chi-Chi grinned, then let out a gasp, " WAHHH! HE'S WEARING THAT THING!! " she shrieked,

pointing a shaky finger in Goku's direction.

      " Such a big resturant. " Gohan sweatdropped, " Four FLOORS. "

      " You think they sell cookies, Kaasan? " Goten asked, tugging on Chi-Chi's pantleg.

      " Not NOW Goten! Mommy has to stop your Toussan before he goes in there with the ouji and comes out with little pink

hearts floating around his head! " Chi-Chi bent down and did a few exercise stretches in a way that near-matched Goku's

before a sparring session, then ran headfirst in Goku and Vegeta's direction even though she was still a half a block away.

      " GAH!! KAASAN SLOW DOWN! " Gohan called, dashing after her.

      " GOKU-SAAAAAN!! " Chi-Chi ran at full-spead towards them. Goku perked his head up just as Chi-Chi tripped over

something launching her headfirst into a nearby bush.

      " Did you hear that Veggie? " Goku looked over at him, worried.

      The ouji scratched his head, " Sounded like a sonic-boom. " he looked around, somehow missing Chi-Chi with her head

stuck inside the bush, " Oh well. " the ouji shrugged, " Shall we enter, my fair peasant? " he gave an over-exaggerated bow.

      Goku giggled in amusement, " Hai, Veggie! " he followed Vegeta inside the resturant.

      " Oh geez. " Gohan walked up to Chi-Chi with his hand over the side of his face in embarassment. Chi-Chi's legs were

wildly waving in the air as if she was still running. Goten tilted his head as he stood next to his brother.

      " HEE~~ " Vejitto's head popped out of another part of the bush and he grinned Son-style at Chi-Chi and the others,

then grabbed her by the leg and yanked her out from inside the bush, " Hello! "

      " Ptoo! Ptoo! " Chi-Chi spat out several leaves, branches, and berries as she hung upside-down by her right leg. She

looked over at who was holding it and gawked, " YOU! " she pointed at Vejitto accusingly.

      " ME~~! " Vejitto grinned.

      " Me too! " Gogeta poked his head out of the bush, beside Vejitto.

      " WHAT ARE YOU TWO OUJI-SPAWN DOING HERE! " Chi-Chi screamed at them, then sweatdropped, " And why are you wearing

spy jackets and sunglasses? "

      " Don't forget the hats. " Gogeta pointed to his hat.

      " Yeah...that too. " Chi-Chi said slowly.

      " We are helping Bulma-san help Mommy! " Vejitto gave her a thumbs-up.

      " Toussan accidentally asked Kaasan out on a date and we are all making sure he doesn't mess up. " Gogeta explained.

      Chi-Chi glared dangerously at him, " What DATE!? "

      Vejitto let go of her leg, causing Chi-Chi's head to fall back into the bush, " She's scary when she makes that

expression. " he observed.

      " MMMPH MMPH!! " Chi-Chi waved her arms and legs about, muffled by the shrubbery.

      " Gohan! Goten! Hi! " Bulma poked her head out from the bush and Raditsu followed.

      " Bulma? Raditsu? You're here too? " Gohan sweatdropped.

      Chi-Chi finally managed to dislodge her head and sat up, spatting out pieces of the bush, " RADITSU?! " she gasped,

then narrowed her eyes, " HEY! What are you doing helping out the Ouji's side of the battle! We looked all over for you at

your house! "

      " Actually I went to go tell Vegeta about the, well, pink-ness. " he motioned to the unusually pink surroundings they

were in, " And then Bulma recruited me to help her, Vejitto, and Gogeta with Vegeta. "

      " But you're SUPPOSED to be helping GOKU! He's your BROTHER. " Chi-Chi exclaimed.

      " HEY. " Bulma slammed a hand down ontop of Raditsu's head. The saiyajin sweatdropped, " He knows a LOT about Vegeta,

he lived with him his whole life until we met Vegeta so he's a valuable asset in terms of telling us what is and what is NOT

normal for Vegeta's personality! "

      " The Ouji isn't a part of his FAMILY! " Chi-Chi grabbed onto one of Raditsu's arms.

      " Well he knows WAY MORE about Vegeta than he does Son-kun! " Bulma grabbed the other arm.

      Raditsu sweatdropped nervously, " Help me. "

      " That's what I'm TRYING to do. " Chi-Chi stated.

      " You just want to use him against Vegeta. " Bulma shouted.

      " No I DON'T!! " Chi-Chi gasped in shock and disgust, " He's Goku's brother and he deserves some freedom from the

Ouji ya know! "

      " But I haven't seen Vegeta in over 10 years. " Raditsu spoke up.

      " Well Vegeta needs his HELP! He may be putting himself in SERIOUS DANGER! "

      " Not really, it's just Kakarrotto. Kakarrotto's not gonna actually try to HURT Vegeta. " Raditsu repsonded again

only to be heard upon deaf ears. The two woman tried yanking each of his arms in either direction and Raditsu sighed. The

large saiyajin thought for a minute, then grinned, " Ahh, you know, you really shouldn't pull my arms like that, it could ah,

damage my psychic abilites. " he smiled cheesily.

      Both Chi-Chi and Bulma stopped.

      " You have psychic powers like Goku-san? " Chi-Chi's eyes widened.

      " Sort of. " Raditsu said. He grinned, " I can see into the future! "

      " ... " Chi-Chi and Bulma's arms went limp and their eyes widened to three times their size.

      " You can... " Bulma trailed off

      " ...see into the FUTURE? THIS future? " Chi-Chi's jaw hung open, " YOU can tell me if the Ouji will win in the end

or not? " she said in a shocked little voice.

      " And you can tell ME if Vegeta succumbs to the kaka-germs or if I find a way to save him? " Bulma squeaked out.

      Raditsu rubbed his arms and started flexing them to get the blood flowing again, oblivious to the women's sudden

shock.

      " GET HIM!! " Chi-Chi shouted. Raditsu yelped and ran off, Chi-Chi and Bulma running after him.

      " Uh-oh. " Gogeta said as he watched all three of them run off.

      " Poor Uncle Ditsu! " Vejitto said, " We should DO something! "

      Gogeta nodded and hopped out of the bush, " Yes we should! "

      " Mr. Oujisama, WELCOME. " the woman at the desk said, " May I show you and your...um-- "

      " --Oujo! " Goku chirped.

      " WAHH! " Vegeta fell over.

      " --Oujo to your table? " she got out from behind the desk, then took two menus and led the two saiyajins to a

rounded-booth on the 3rd floor. Goku cheerfully sat down on one side and Vegeta shakily sat down on the other.

      " I can't believe you said that. " Vegeta weakly mumbled.

      " Said what? " Goku blinked.

      " You introduced yourself as my OUJO! " he exclaimed, his face turning red.

      " It was the first title I could think of, Veggie. " Goku said innocently, then smiled warmly, " Besides, I AM

dressed for the part. "

      " Hn.. " Vegeta's face glew a brighter red.

      Goku slid down the seat to Vegeta's end and squeezed against his side, " So? Little Veggie? What do you think looks

good? " he peered at the menu.

      Vegeta's body shuddered as he promptly plugged his ears with his pointer fingers and made a small whincing sound. The

ouji's eyes squinted shut as he tried with all his might to block the terrifying first answer that had come to his mind.

      " Veggie? " Goku said, worried.

      Vegeta gulped and completed blocking the answer out. He sighed as the redness left his face and he removed his

fingers from his ears. The ouji folded his arms, " Kakarrotto? "

      " Hm?? "

      " Don't ever phrase that type of question that way ever again, alright? " the ouji snorted.

      Goku tilted his head, confused, " Uh, alright Veggie. "

      " So, ah, what are you getting? " Vegeta changed the subject.

      " I dunno. " Goku happily leaned his hands on his cheeks and his elbows on the table, " What's Veggie gettin? "

      " Well, first I'm going to have an appetizer and then I'm going to order my meal. " the ouji said, feeling much more

comfortable now that they were talking about food instead of, other things.

      " An appetizer be-fore a SNACK, Veggie? " Goku blinked, then grinned, " That's funny! "

      " Well to humans, our idea of a snack IS a meal. And since everyone in here is most likely under the impression that

we're humans, it would be a good idea to order an appetizer. " the ouji said intellegently, then bluntly added, " Besides

I'm really hungry. "

      Goku sweatdropped. The large saiyajin grabbed his menu and studied it for a moment, then smiled, " French-fries! " he

chriped.

      " ...what? " Vegeta's eyes bulged out of his head.

      " I would like some french-fries as MY appetizer, little Veggie! " Goku's tail wagged back and forth, enjoying the

trip.

      " BAKA! " Vegeta shouted, " This is a FANCY resturant! You can order FRENCH-FRIES for under a buck at most fast-food

places! Try something new! Try something, I don't know, exotic! "

      " Hello Mr. and Mrs. Oujisama, would you like to order? " the waitress woman from the desk said, walking up to them.

      Vegeta nearly fell out of his seat, " Kakarrotto's not my WIFE! " he exclaimed, his voice cracking in shock.

      The woman blinked, " Would you and your Oujo like to order? "

      " Yes I would! " Goku chriped before Vegeta could correct the woman again. The ouji slumped in his seat. Goku flipped

a page in the menu, then smiled up at her, " I would like some papases fritas, please! "

      " WAHH! " this time Vegeta did fall out of his seat and hit the floor with a thud. He lept to his feet only to have

his head hit the underside of the table and let out a yelp. Vegeta lept to his feet a second time with a small pain now ontop

of his head, " Kakarrotto, ordering french-fries in SPANISH doesn't make it exotic. It's the SAME FOOD. "

      Goku grinned, " Not if I PRETEND it isn't? "

      Vegeta stared at him incrediously, " ...what? "

      " MMMMM, delicioso! " Goku grinned as he purposely took a little bite out of the sandwiched french fries. The

saiyajin had applied ketchup between the two fries and was now eating it like a mini-sandwich, " Mmm! It tastes so exo-tech

and new! "

      Vegeta just shook his head in disbelief, " Just when I think you couldn't get any more bizarre. "

      " Aww Veggie, I am not bizarre. I am saucy! Just like my papases fritas! " Goku said happily, taking another

mini-bite.

      " The only reason that thing is saucy is because YOU SLATHERED IT IN KETCHUP! " Vegeta sweatdropped, then huffed and

folded his arms, " And I beg to differ on YOU being "saucy". " he shifted around, then all of a sudden felt something slap

him across the rear end. Vegeta's face burst into a bright red color as he glanced back at Goku in shock only to find the

larger saiyajin deeply entrenched in eating his sandwiched french-fries, " Uh, Kakarrotto? "

      " Hmm? "

      " Am I going crazy or did you just slap my butt? " the ouji asked uneasily.

      " That is one of the things people do when they are in a saucy mood. " Goku said innocently.

      " Then...you did? "

      " Yup! "

      " ... " the ouji gulped and moved a few inches away from Goku on the circular-shaped booth-seats, " Ah, are you

feeling saucy NOW? "

      " Nope! "

      Vegeta moved back the two inches he had just moved away from, " You uh, you've been watching tv again lately? "

      " Hai it is one of the things that I am forced to do bee-cause the weather has been keeping me from behing able to

go spar outside lately. " Goku pouted, then brightened up, " But you will not BELIEVE some of the amazing things you learn

watching tv! "

      " Like how to slap my rear end. " Vegeta muttered to himself.

      " Haha, yeah, like that. " the larger saiyajin smiled, then got a worried look on his face, " I, I didn't HURT you,

did I, Veggie? "

      " Only my pride. " the little ouji grumbled, his cheeks turning red with embarassment.

      Goku sniffled, " I am SORRY Veggie I promise I won't do it ever again! "

      Vegeta cocked an eyebrow, " I'm still partially hurting. " he said with a mock-pouty-lip.

      " AWWWWW... " Goku's eyes welled up with tears and his arms lifted up and started to quiver. Vegeta froze, knowing

ahead what was coming. He attempted to back up only to be launched at by a large, soft, warm lump of saiyajin, " Oh little

Veggie please forgive me I will NEVER do it again and I never intended to HURT little Veggie and I promise I won't let

anyone hurt Veggie anymore because my little Veggie has had e-nough hurt to last his entire lifetime and that is more than 5

human lifetimes and that is a LOT of hurt! " he said in a surprisingly quiet voice, sobbing.

      " You're, not wailing. " Vegeta said, surprised.

      Goku pulled back and smiled, " I am being polite just like Veggie asked me. And polite people do not talk super-loud

in a crowded room full of people. "

      Vegeta smirked, " Well, that's very mature of you Kakay. "

      " Hee~~ " Goku beamed, then whipped out a little box, " Let's have candy-hearts to celebrate! "

      Vegeta looked at the little box full of brightly-colored heart-shaped candies.

      " They have sayings on them, like fortune cookies! " Goku explained, then took one out, " "Cutie". Aww, why THANK YOU again

little candy-heart! " he said, flattered, then tossed the snack in his mouth and swallowed it whole. Goku held the box out to

Vegeta, " Now Veggiestry! "

      The ouji looked at the box uneasily, then reached in and pulled out a pink heart and read outloud like Goku had,

" "Kiss me". " he said, then froze in place and slapped his hand over his mouth, his face turning bright red.

      Goku tilted his head, " Veggie say somethin? "

      Vegeta crunched the candy-heart in his hand into dozens of little pieces, then scattered them on the table and

nervously took his hand off his mouth. The ouji smiled cheesily at Goku, " Nothing. Nothing at all. "

END OF PART ONE!

Chuquita: Ta-da!

Vegeta: (sweatdrops) I have a bad feeling about this trip...

Chuquita: Aw, you'll be oh-kay Veggie! (to audiance) Sorry this one came a lil later than usual, the next semester for school

started last week and it took me a couple days to get back into school-mode.

Vegeta: In other words you were unbelievably tired last week.

Chuquita: Yes....but I got used to the new schedule so I'm not tired anymore! (grins)

Goku: HOORAY!

Chuquita: I looked over this chapter before I posted it and surprisingly I didn't have too many grammar-errors despite my

sleepiness the first two days :)

Vegeta: (grumbles) I still think the kaka-slap to my rear wasn't necessary.

Chuquita: LOL!

Vegeta: (cocks an eyebrow) What?

Chuquita: Heeheehee, I re-looked the chapter over when I first uploaded it to ff.net and you accidentally left out the

"n't" in wasn't so I had to unload it, fix it, and reupload it. It accidently looked like you asked for it!

Vegeta: (twitches) So I said…?

Chuquita: HahaHA!!

Vegeta: (turns bright red w/embarassment) Curses!....but, thank you for fixing it.

Chuquita: You're welcome! (turns to audiance) OH! There's a few questions from the last reviews that I wanna answer!

To mkh2: LOL! Future-Goku just happened to have the box of diapers w/him for Past-toddler-Goku to use. They made sure to

bring some because he'd need it.

Vegeta: (sweatdrops) I'd rather not find out along the way that I could eventually lose control of my bowel movements.

Goku: Heeheehee, Veggie'd look silly in diapers!

Vegeta: (cheeks flush red) Hai....

To Setsumi-san: Actually your review gave me the idea to doodle Raditsu w/his hair brushed out. :) Bura didn't brush all of

it out, just what was beneath the hair-squngie.

If she didn't cut it, brushed out Celipa's hair would look similar to Raditsu's brushed-out part. I'm uploading the doodle

of Raditsu today on my deviantart page if you wanna see how it came out :) chuquita . deviantart . com

Chuquita: (to Goku & Veggie) Oh! They're selling the candy-hearts now so I was finally able to get a few lil boxes of them.

Goku: (takes a candy-heart out of the box) "Lookin Good". (pauses) (grins widely) HEE~~

Vegeta: Oh brother.

Chuquita: It's a shame they never had a Valentine's day filler-ep somewhere in the show. (grins) That would've been funny.

Vegeta: It would've been embarassing. Just like the situation I've put myself in THIS time.

Goku: Aww, we would've had a FUN Veggietine's Day episode Veggie, maybe we would have fought a Veggietine's Day themed

villain! And WON!

Vegeta: (snorts) I'd rather not. (looks to his right and shrieks to see Goku holding something out only a few inches away

from him) WAHH! WHAT THE HECK?! (jumps back)

Goku: Heehee, it's one of Cu's magical luv arrows, Veggie!

Chuquita: (clasps her hands together) AHH! From the very FIRST Veggietine's Day special! I remember those things!

Vegeta: (mutters) Hai, so do I....BUT WHERE DID KAKARROTTO GET ONE!

Chuquita: (shrugs, clueless) I dunno.

Goku: Hey Veggie? (taps him on the shoulder w/the arrow)

Vegeta: AHH! (shrieks) DON'T TOUCH ME WITH IT! (pauses) What number is that one anyway?

Goku: (looks at the arrow) Um, 3.

Vegeta: (calms down a bit) Oh, well that's on the low-effecting end of the scale. That makes it slightly less dangerous in

your posession.

Chuquita: (w/one hand on her cheek) What did you get hit with again, 11?

Vegeta: Hai, and Kakarrotto was hit with 10.

Goku: (sweatdrops) VEGGIE hit me with 10.

Vegeta: I was UNDER THE INFLUENCE of the ARROW!

Chuquita: Man I'm glad we did that two years ago. God KNOWS what you'd be acting like under arrow 11 if it happened NOW.

Vegeta: (shudders) Something worthy of a PG-13 rating, most likely.

Goku: (stacking little candies ontop of the arrow on the desk building a mini-candy-castle) Heehee.

Chuquita: (to audiance) Well, it's time to end part 1! See you sometime next week for part 2 everybody!

Vegeta: (watching the arrow on the table with caution) (uneasy) Ah, so long.

Goku: (grins and waves) ALOHA OI!!
