The Dare

Chapter Twenty Four " Of Green Beans and Jelly Beans "
"Answer me, onna! Why are these pathetic weakings in my house? How dare they interupt my training! Someone will die for this!" Vegeta bellowed, glaring at the class, who shrank back in fear from the short, crazy man. Mirai rolled his eyes at his father, as Gohan starting sobbing hysterically again, and Bulma looked almost sadly at Gohan as she shook her head, before looking up at her mate, glaring as she put her hands on her hips.

"Vegeta, what the hell is your problem, now? Now one's interupted your training, you baka! You're the one who came out of the GR yourself. And besides, aren't you supposed to be outside sparring with Goku anyway?" Bulma asked.

"That pathetic excuse for a warror! I decided not to waste my time with him." Vegeta said with a smirk as Mirai smirked at his father.

"He beat you miserably, didn't he, Father?" Mirai asked as Vegeta growled at his son.

"Boy! Don't you dare assume that *I*, the great Prince Vegeta, would ever be out classed by *that* pathetic excuse for a Saiyan!" Vegeta cried.

"So that's a yes then, Veggie?" Bulma asked with a smirk of her own.

"Onna! You stay out of this!" Vegeta cried as Bulam growled at her mate, and put her hands on her hips again.

"I will not, Vegeta. You forget, this is *my* roof you live, eat, sleep, and train under, buddy!" Bulma cried as Vegeta crossed his arms over his chest and snapped his head away from her.

"Hmph. Pathetic females." Vegeta mumbled.

"I'll show *you* pathetic, you egotisical monkey! You can look forward to a month on the couch and I'm dismantling your *precious* gravity room just as soon as these students-" Bulma suddenly stopped talking and blinked, suddenly remembering Gohan's class.

"Kami. I'd forgotten about you kids. Please forgive me, my ma-er, my husband can be real intolerable at times. He's very moody." Bulma said, smiling pleasantly at the teenagers and teachers as Vegeta scowled darkly behind her, Mirai struggling with ever ounce of will power he possessed not to burst into laughter. Gohan was still sobbing on the floor, but he'd moved on to rocking back and forth and clutching his knees to his chest as he rocked.

"Anyway, we'll be leaving Veggie alone now to wallow, since it's what he does best, and we'll be heading to Sector 37. It's where I keep my best inventions." Bulma said, smiling in pride as she guided the rest of the class away from the scowling Saiyan Prince and around the safety of the nearest corner, but not before looking back at Vegeta and smirking as she blew him a kiss. If possible, Vegeta's scowl darkened even more.

Mirai was starting to follow the group, when he suddenly noticed that Gohan wasn't beside him. He turned around, to see Gohan still rocking back a forth a few feet back, exactly where he had first collapsed. With a chuckle he started back towards his best friend, before Vegeta spotted Gohan, snarled, and lunged for the demi-saiyan on the floor. He roughly pulled Gohan to his feet by the collar of his shirt, and snarled into Gohan's face.

"You, spawn of Kakarrot, will spar with me, and spar with me now! You two, boy!" Vegeta shouted, snapping his head to look over in Mirai's direction. Mirai paled.

"Uh....well......you see Father......I-" Mirai began, before a loud explosion was heard from the other end of the hall.

Mirai, Vegeta, and Gohan looked up in a mixture of shock and surprise as Trunks, Goten, and Pan came racing around the corner, and without a word to the three older Saiyans, disappeared around another corner, just as a furious Bulma came storming around the first corner, glaring at the three adults.

"Where did they-?" Bulma began as Mirai wordlessly pointed in the direction the chibis had disappeared. With a curt nod to her son, Bulma continued storming after the kids, but called over her shoulder to the other three.

"They blew up Sector 37. Vegeta, you and the boys keep an eye on the class whilst *I* hunt down the little Saiyan demons....no offense Gohan. I mean, you're daughter's only started to hang around Trunks for barely a day, so it's not all her fault....anyway, I'll be back! And Vegeta, if just *one* of those kids has to see a shrink because of you, you'll sorely regret it, Vegetable man!" Bulma cried as she disappeared around the corner.

Gohan paled.

"This can't end well. I've got a *really* bad feeling about this too. Kami help us all......on second though, the hell with you, Dende!" Gohan cried, snarling angrily towards the ceiling.

Mirai blinked..........................then coughed.

"Anyway, we should make sure there are no casualties, Gohan." Mirai said as Gohan nodded wearily as the two headed in the direction of the smoke billowing around the far corner. Vegeta snorted, before throwing a look over his shoulder, and disappearing back into the Gravity Room, the metal door sliding shut behind him.



Ok, before I go on, I have to explain something, cause it's going to be weird unless you all know. For the sake of mantaining everyone else's sanity, Majin Buu's already been defeated. And Gohan had returned to school afterwards. But the reason Videl hadn't known his identity before, was....ah.....*sweatdrops*.......well, we're going to pretend that she just hadn't ok?

MIRAI: You really expect people will just let it go, just like that?

If they want to, they will. Besides, it's the only way to make the next part funny. Anyway. here you go!



"Goten, what in the name of Kami were you thinking?!" Trunks cried as he raced down the halls of CC beside Goten and Pan. The demi-saiyan shrugged his shoulders.

"I was hungry, sorry." Goten said.

"You blew up my Mom's *favorite* lab because you were hungry? How do you explain *that* one?" Trunks cried.

"It's not my fault, Trunks. I thought I saw a jelly bean." Goten cried as Trunks suddenly stopped.

"A *WHAT?!*" Trunks cried.

"A jelly bean." Goten repeated as Trunks stared at him.

"What in the name of Kami does a jelly bean have to do with you blowing up my Mom's lab?!" Trunks asked.

"It was pink." Goten said.

"WHAT?!" Trunks cried again.

"It was pink, so I thought maybe that Buu monster-" Goten began.

"Goten, you are the biggest baka- never mind, what does a pink jelly bean have to do with Buu?" Trunks asked.

"Well, I was hungry, so when I saw the jelly bean, I was about to go over and eat it, then I remembered that everytime the Buu monster kept blowing up, he kept ending up in little pink pieces. So I was just blowing it up before he could.....you know, get bigger." Goten said as Trunks stared bewildered at his best friend, before his sensitive Saiyan hearing starting to pick up the sounds of running feet. He smacked Goten across the back of his head.

"You're still a dummy, dummy! If my Mom catches us, I'll kill you!" Trunks cried as he started racing down the hall way again. He skidded around the corner, and after pulling Pan and Goten with him, the flew up to the ceiling and hovered as close as they could to the roof, just as Bulma ran under them and continued running on down the hall, waving her new frying pan through the air.

"Ok, let's get going before she comes back." Trunks said, flying in the other direction, with the other two right behind him.

"Where are we going, Trunks? I thought we were going to go see Piccolo?" Goten asked.

"We are, baka, but we can't go that way, Mom's in the other direction, remember? We have to go out the exit in the north sector. Come on, just follow me." Trunks said with a frustrated sigh as he flew on down the corrider.

About twenty minutes later, Trunks smirked to himself as he stepped onto the vast lawn of the CC compound. He smirked at his companions as a slight breeze ruffled his lavander bangs.

"Ok, *now* we can go see Piccolo." Trunks said.

"But Trunks, I'm still hungry." Goten whined before Trunks rolled his eyes and smacked him again.



Piccolo was floating over a lake, deep in mediation when the trio crept into the clearing. Trunks motioned for the two to come over to him, then pointed at Pan, then he pointed up at Piccolo, and mouthed the words 'distract him' with he dragged Goten behind a tree.

"I'm gonna tackle him from behind, and make him fall into the lake. All *you* have to do, Goten, is grab his cape when he takes it off, ok? Wait until he puts it on a rock or over a tree branch or whatever. I'll come up with a cover, don't worry. *You* just get the cape, ok?" Trunks asked as Goten nodded happily.

"Got it, Trunks. You can count on me!" Goten whispered as Trunks eyed him thoughtfully, before sighing and deciding to give in. He looked over to see Pan floating a foot away from Piccolo's face.

"Excuse me, sir? But are you Piccolo?" Pan asked, as the green man opened one of his eyes to look at her, before closing again.

"Go away, kid." Piccolo said.

"Ah.....but my Sensei told me that you trained my Daddy. Is that true?" Pan asked sweetly as Piccolo opened an eye again.

"I never trained anyone that you'd know, kid. Certainly not your father." Piccolo said, starting to close his eye, before spotting Pan's tail, and both eyes spot open in shock.

"What the hell?! You're a Saiyan?!" Piccolo asked as Pan nodded.

"Yup. My name is Pan. But you don't know me. See, I'm not born yet." Pan said as Piccolo stared at the black haired girl strangely.

"Wha-?" Piccolo was suddenly cut off as he was send crashing into the water below him. He rose out of the water, soaking wet and furious, before he spotted Trunks laughing hysterically and clutching his side.

"You're so funny, Mr. Piccolo. You didn't even sense me! You must be getting old!" Trunks said as Piccolo scowled at the spoiled brat, and gathered his cape bottom in his hands to wring out the excess water. Trunks exchanged a look with Goten as Piccolo made no move to remove his cape, and instead glared at the purple haired prince.

"You. Go Home. Bother someone else." Piccolo said, closing his eyes again. Trunks looked at Goten and Pan, before sighing deeply and bringing his hands together, and turning SSJ instantly, he brought his fists down on Piccolo's head, effectively knocking the Namek out cold.

"Well, that's another way of doing it, Mr. Green Bean." Trunks said with a smirk as he started tugging at Piccolo's cape. He scowled at he called over towards Goten.

"Give me a hand, would you?!"
