Chapter Eight: Will No One Help Me?

"Who the hell does she think she is?!" Hercule roared in a rage, causing most of the people in the bar he was in to shake their heads at him as he was still unable to believe that the object of his desires had turned him down. "No one says no to Hercule!" He yelled, banging his fist on the wooden table and making his drink spill before dripping onto the dirty floor.

Krillin snorted from where he sat beside him. Holding his beer with both hands to prevent it from spilling with the oafs constant outbursts. 'People say no to you all the time you fool!' He thought, but being wise enough to keep his mouth shut with the little comment. Hercule may be an oaf, but he was still a strong oaf. So no one felt like telling him to shut the hell up since he did nothing but complain about Trunks' turn down since he got there.

Hell, he wouldn't even listen when people tried to tell him that his love was a man named Trunks and not a girl named Belle. They say love is blind but he was just being stupid about it. If he's gay then he should just come right out and admit it because everyone in the village already knew about it.

Suddenly, without warning a strong and cold wind ran through the tavern as Vegeta burst through the doors breathlessly. "Somebody help me!" He cried out, instantly getting everyone's attention as he ran over to the bartender. Perhaps he knew where the local town guards were since they usually came in here on their time off.

"You have to help me! That thing has my son locked in a dungeon!!" He shouted frantically at the old bartender while holding him by the neck of his shirt.

That widened Hercule's eyes a great deal. Someone had his Belle locked in a dungeon? "Slow down old man, who's got Belle locked in a dungeon?" He asked, getting ready to pull out his gun and hunt down whoever would dare to touch his fiancé.

Vegeta snarled at the giant fool for calling him an old man and referring to his son as a female, but he held his tongue in check with the number of rude comments he could throw at the buffoon because right now he still desperately needed help. "It was a giant monstrous Beast!" He proclaimed, waiting for the reaction of the crowd and hoping they would all get up and grab their guns before following him back to the castle.

Everything was silent for a moment, the people of the tavern taking in the ridiculous idea of what was just said before the whole room burst out into loud laughter. Even Krillin and Hercule thought it was hilarious.

'Damn, even Hercule isn't that stupid!' Krillin thought as he hugged his sides and tried to breathe through his chuckles.

Hercule then got to his feet, a booming laugh erupting from his throat. "L-let me guess, you want us all to help you hunt down this monster to save her?" He asked, a look of amusement on his face at the very thought. The old man had gone senile!

Vegeta's eye twitched, and he had to fight to keep the vein in his forehead from popping. The only reason why he didn't charge to fool right then and there was because he still had Trunks to think about, and even then it's not like he'd be able to take all the people in the bar in a fight with how weak he felt. "Yes, I'd like some help." He said, almost sarcastically while trying to ignore the light snickers he heard from the other people in the tavern.

Hercule stroked his chin thoughtfully before an actual idea came to him. "Alright old man, I'll help you out." He said, calmly walking over.

Vegeta was actually stunned. "Y-you will?" He asked in slight shock, but still grateful for the help.

"Of course." Hercule said with a smile as he placed a hand on Vegeta's shoulder. "I'll help you out right now!" He cried out, picking him up and holding him over his head as he ran for the door laughing like a maniac.

"Put me down you fool!" Vegeta roared out in a rage as he was thrown from the tavern and into the dark, cold snow face first.

Krillin was more than a little surprised to hear everyone in the tavern start to laugh again at the unusually clever prank that the big oaf had pulled. And while Vegeta normally was the butt of their jokes with his foolish inventions, no one had ever beaten him in a fight before, much less thrown him out of a bar!

"Heh, that crazy old man sure is good for a laugh!" Hercule heard one of the other patrons of the bar say before taking a swig of his beer. And oddly enough, that just gave him another idea. Two in one day! Was he lucky or what!?

"Krillin I've been thinking--"

"Do you remember what happened the last time you did that!?!" The shorter man shouted, almost in fear as he cut him off.

Hercule rolled his eyes at him before roughly grabbing him by the front of his cloak and picking him up. "That's not the point right now! I've got an idea to get Belle to marry me." He said with an evil smile. Watching in amusement as Krillin gave him a look of confusion.

"Really? How?" He asked, mentally praying that it didn't involve getting shot at like that last plan he had.

Hercule leaned in closer to his ear so that no one would be able to hear the plot he had going on. After all Belle did come to this bar once in a blue moon and she did have a few friends in here. Although when they were married he'd have to put a stop to that. Women were just far too delicate to be in such rough places! "Belle's father is a complete lunatic. What he did just now proved it! All we have to do is send him to the insane asylum until she agrees to marry me!" He sneered into his ear.

Krillin's eyes widened. That was actually a pretty good idea! And if he married Trunks, then the oaf would have to leave him alone once in a while because he'd be too preoccupied with his ahem wife! "That's a great idea! When do we start?" He asked, a big grin on his face.

Hercule smirked at him. "As soon as we can get a hold of the manager of the asylum!" He replied, not too gracefully dropping the shorter man on the floor before taking Krillins beer from off of the table and finishing it off. Feeling rather pleased with himself at his cleverness.

Back outside, Vegeta was walking through the cold wind and snow, heading for home to get some maps and other supplies he would need. If they weren't going to help him then he go back and get him out of there alone!
