Kaiku stared at him
"It's all connected? What does that mean? Are you sure that's all he said?"
"WHY WOULD I LIE ABOUT SOMETHING LIKE THIS?!" Kaiku backed away from Vegeta a little he sat down on the settee and started to think.
"Right… it's all connected…" he hit himself in the head. "Come on! Why can't I make sense of this?" Vegeta looked pityingly at him.
"Third class moron…"
"It's not Goku who's mad about this!" Vegeta jolted.
"What? Supreme Kai? Why are you in control of that body now?!"
"Goku let me take control because I can think faster than him. Don't worry, he still knows all that's going on." Kaiku buried his face in his hands. "Why does nothing make sense…"
They sat in perfect silence from then on. it was so quiet, Vegeta could swear he could hear the wheels turning in Kaiku's brain. Every now and then, Kaiku would ask him a question like 'how long have you been pregnant,' or 'did you ever have any type of psychic powers,' (to that question Vegeta just rolled his eyes). After five hours, Kaiku just lay back on the sofa in defeat.
"Something the matter Mr brain king?"
"If it's all connected… then… why does nothing fit?"
There was suddenly a burning feeling in Vegeta's arm he pulled up his sleeve to see his skull scar glowing red again. Kaiku stared at it. "All connected…"
{Goku, when Vegeta came to you that night when he had no memory, he had that scar didn't he?}
[Yes…]
"Vegeta! Do you know where you got that skull from?"
"Nope. I've never remembered that. It's weird, because I can remember… going out to train alone… it was day…there was this flash of light… and I had no memory… it was night then… I was near a house… people were staring at me… I headed for the house… Kakarott's… Kakarott knows the rest."
[Wow…]
{Hey, can I scan your memory quickly?}
[What? Oh, yeah sure.]
{…………so he got his memory back when you two admitted your feelings to one another?}
[Yup. He said the skull said that he needed me… and I needed him.]
{What is it with the skull? You'd think they'd give us a less menacing messenger.}
[I was thinking that the other day.]
{… maybe… it is all connected! Maybe someone set this all up! Vegeta losing his memory, him coming to you… remember, he was the one that gave you the reason and power you needed to kill Majin Buu. Maybe whoever did that was just helping us through that fight for the more important one with the true enemy! And now the true enemy has all our family and friends and is telling us… it's all connected!}
[But why would the true enemy do that? He can't launch a surprise attack if we know what he's up to.]
{Maybe he's so sure of himself he thinks he doesn't need the element of surprise.}
"HEY!"
Kaiku jolted.
"What?"
"What are you two saying? I can't hear you, you know!"
{Should we tell him?}
[…No. I don't want him worried even more.]
{Then you talk to him.}
[Fine.]
"It's nothing you need to worry about Vegeta." Vegeta frowned.
"Kakarott?" Kaiku nodded. "Tell me what's going on."
"I…can't. Not yet. I don't know if we're right yet and I don't want to worry you for nothing." Vegeta glowered at him and stood up.
"Look here Kakarott. I want to know! I need to know if… it'll be ok…for…" he looked down at his stomach briefly. Kaiku looked sadly up at him. he rose too and pulled Vegeta into his arms.
"It'll be ok Vegeta. I'll never let anything hurt you." Vegeta wrapped his arms around Kaiku softly and sighed. Kaiku felt something move against him and smiled- it was coming from Vegeta's stomach. "I think he's saying hi."
"He? How do you know it's a boy?"
"All my kids are boys." Kaiku said smiling.
"I swear… you're no good for me Kakarott… you're making me weak and dependent…" Kaiku chuckled.
"Yeah, but you're much cuter when you're dependent on me."
"Awww isn't that sweet?" Vegeta broke away from Kaiku and whirled around to see Old Kai.
"Fuck off."
"That's just not nice." He said, grinning. "Kai, can I go yet? It's boring around here!"
"Yeah, sure." Kaiku walked over to him (Supreme Kai in control again) and teleported him out, coming back seconds later. "That takes care of one more problem." He said.
[Hey, Supreme Kai?]
{Yes?}
[Thanks for letting me hold Vegeta. I know you don't like that sort of stuff.]
{Oh come on, I'm not totally heartless!}
[Heh… yeah I guess so…]
{What do you mean you guess so?}
Kaiku smiled to himself and looked up at Vegeta, who was waiting almost patiently for him to finish.
"Right then. Since you're obviously not going to tell me what's going on, can you at least let me know if there's anything I shouldn't do?"
"Actually… I thought we'd go look for some long grass tomorrow."
