A/N:  Heylo everyone! Here's Chapter 25.

Chapter 25

            "When will the cloud be here?" Vegeta asked impatiently. Joe, Vegeta, Yoli and Nadia were sat cross-legged in the living room, playing Monopoly. They were getting a lot of stares, probably because the huge gaping hole was still there. Joe had called the builders and they were coming first thing Tuesday morning, a week before his parents got home.

            "Stop changing the subject, I know you're trying to cheat!" Nadia narrowed her eyes at Vegeta who was eyeing her pile of money she'd been collecting.

            "The Prince of all Saiya-jins does not need to cheat!" Vegeta said haughtily.

            "Yeah right." Nadia muttered, rolling the dies; a twelve.

            "That's the fourth twelve you've got in a row! I think you're the one who's cheating here." Vegeta glared at Nadia.

            "Whoops. Wondered where these were." Joe took the dies and put them in his pocket.

            "Joe!" Nadia complained after a couple of minutes. No one else were bothered, they weren't winning.

            "It's hardly fair, Shrimp. These are my 'lucky dies'." Joe patted them in his pocket.

            "Fine then, you can all be sore losers." Nadia put the game away as they all sat in silence.

            "Sooooooo…" Yoli looked around the room, the silence making her uncomfortable.

            "Yeah." Nadia nodded her head.

            "Yep." Joe muttered, picking at his socks.

            "Joe, you still in that band?" Nadia struck up conversation.

            "Nope. Garry's mom didn't appreciate 'four teenage boys traipsing through her kitchen every day'." Joe answered.

            "That's a shame." Nadia said half-heartedly.

            "Yep." Joe nodded in response.

            "Sooooooo…" Yoli started up again.

            "Isn't there anything to do before that annoying cloud gets here? I never thought I'd say this but; I wish he'd hurry his ass!" Vegeta growled, the silence getting to him.

            "We could have another game of Monopoly." Nadia offered, shrinking back when loud shouts of 'no' greeted her ears.

            "Whats on TV?" Joe asked himself, switching on the television. The theme music for 'Jerry Springer' was playing, and the host cane into view.

            "Ooooo! Jerry Springer!" Yoli directed her gaze towards the TV.

            "I hate this show. I swear I wouldn't mind knocking all these annoying people out. They're so stupid!" Nadia got up and headed to the kitchen.

            "You're too weak to knock anyone out. You can't even stand in a fraction of Earth's gravity!" Vegeta called to her, his focus on the TV. He went into an extremely detailed account on how Nadia made a fool of herself in the Gravity Room.

            "Stupid assholes." Nadia muttered, slamming the refrigerator door shut as howls of laughter came from the living room. She poured herself a glass of milk.

            "Hey." Joe came into the kitchen and sat on a stool.

            "So, what're you going to do when mom and dad get home?" Nadia asked her brother.

            "I'll probably hide at Garry's for a couple of days." Joe grinned.

            "Touch that and you die!" Vegeta's voice boomed from the living room.

            "What the hell?" Nadia asked, running into the room. Vegeta was so close to the TV, his nose was practically touching the screen, whereas Yoli was cowering in a corner.

            "He's crazy!" Yoli yelled from her corner, pointing at Vegeta.

            "Quiet, baka. I'm listening!" Vegeta called, not taking his eyes off the TV.

            "What's with him?" Joe asked Yoli.

            "He's obsessed! He's gone crazy! I swear! I got the remote and was about to flick when he attacked me! Not the good kind of attacking either! I thought he was gonna kill me! He's a chat show freak!" Yoli spluttered.

            "Vegeta? A chat show addict?" Nadia burst into fits of laughter.

            "Hey! I'm a victim here!" Yoli stated indignantly.

            "Vegeta…are you alright?" Nadia crept slowly towards Vegeta.

            "Stay back!" Vegeta snarled once she came within 2 feet of the TV.

            "Hello all!" George called from the whole in the living room. "Looks like you've been having fun."

            "Oh yeah, great fun." Nadia muttered sarcastically.

            "What's that smell?" Yoli asked, sniffing the air.

            "Are you all, hiccup, ready then?" George asked.

            "Uh…George? Are you OK?" Nadia looked at the cloud strangely.

            "Of course, hiccup, dear! Why wouldn't, hiccup, I be?" George slurred.

            "You haven't been…drinking…or anything?" Nadia eyed the cloud suspiciously.

            "Moi? Drink? Never and never and boom!" George laughed at himself.

            "Oh crap." Nadia shook her head. Remembering Vegeta, she took the remote and switched off the TV.

            "Ahhhhh!" Vegeta screamed as the picture was reduced to a tiny black dot, then nothing.

            "C'mon Vegeta, snap out of it." Yoli clicked her fingers in front of the Prince's face.

            "But the…huh? What happened?" Vegeta demanded, his all too familiar scowl back on his face.

            "Oh, uh, nothing." Nadia said. "George, are you sober enough to take us back?"

            "Cheerio! Mmmmm, I love that cereal, especially Honey Nut Cheerio's. Nummy." George answered.

            "Ah well, I suppose you'll do." Nadia sighed, grabbing her bag that was filled with socks and two pairs of trainers.
