Quote of the Week: -from Budoukai 3
Goku: What's going on...? Vegeta just flew off somewhere...And he looked kind of strange..
N...Not that, Vegeta! Your mind isn't being controlled by Babidi is it? Well I'm going after you, regardless. What was Vegeta thinking about back there...? He looked like he's had something on his mind...
-Flashback-
:::Veggie: So you've attained a new level of power...I see...
::It's as I thought, Kakarot has crossed the threshold...he's gone far beyond a mere super saiyajin:: :::
Goku: ...I don't know...At any rate, I've got to find Vegeta quickly and have a little chat with him!

/dl
Chuey's Corner:
Goku: (grins) I do enjoy chatting with Veggies.
Chuquita: Welcome to Part 3 everybody! I was going to use a snow-related db quote, but since I just got my ps2, a Budoukai 3 quote works just as well!
Vegeta: (smirks) I enjoy how seme-ish I seem so far in this game...and I happen to think my 3-D model looks a little bulkier if I do say so.
Chuquita: (to audiance) So far all I've gone through all the training exercises, unlocked Veggie, Recoom, Freeza, Fat Buu, Super Buu, and Vejitto, and gotten 3/4ths of the way through Goku's DU. All I have left is to fight Kid Buu. Infact I almost went to do that instead of starting this chapter but then I figured I spent enough time today on the ps2 (2 hours from Cell to Kid Buu) and I was behind already on chapter 2 so I'll make it up to you by starting chapter 3 a day early!
Vegeta: Good for you! (goes off to play Chu's ps2)
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) ...
Goku: My DU is FUN! (watches Veggie play)
Chuquita: I gotta say Super Buu was the toughest one I've fought so far. It took me at least 6 to 7 attempts before I beat him. And that was with JITTO!
Vejitto: My "You Lose" screen sounds kinda Mommy-ish.
Gogeta: Heehee, "How could I lose?!".
Goku: Mine's boring. "I lost." I wish I had something more crea-tive.
Chuquita: Veggie's made me crack up the first time I heard it. He falls down, then stumbles back up and announces "I'm the
Prince of All Saiyans" and halfway through his sentence he collapses again.
Vegeta: (flatly) You would think that was funny person-who-sentenced-me-to-a-scene-in-a-skirt.
Chuquita: Aw come on, you're not still sore about that?
Vegeta: No.no..I'm just saying that it's not healthy to be influenced by outside sources and if anyone Kakarrotto should've
been the one to have his pants contaminated and forced to--
Goku: --(tilts head at Veggie, confused)
Vegeta: --ah...nevermind. (continues playing)
Chuquita: I don't know what Goggie's is yet cuz I have yet to unlock him. Veggie's intro when fighting Goku is fun though. It's "Do you accept my challange, Kakarrot?"
Goku: (blinks) What challange?
Chuquita: (laughs) I have no idea. To spar I guess.
Vegeta: I'm slightly upset they removed my "I've done it! I've beaten Kakarrot!" from the previous Budoukai though...
Chuquita: Yeah, that was fun.
Goku: I'm surprised that Chi-chan is so very content in this game.
Chuquita: Yeah, she looks almost unrecognizable with that happy content expression on her face.
Goku: (confused) And yet I'm wearing my battle face...
Vegeta: (smirks) I like my picture's expression. I look like I'm plotting something evil.
Chuquita: I heard Turles is the other outfit for Bardock in this game. After seeing Nail as one of Piccolo's alternate outfits I'm convinced. (grins) It'll be so much fun to play as Turles.
Vegeta: He gets pants in this though.
Chuquita: So does Nappa, but Nappa always had an alternate with pants. I wish Raditsu could get some though. Poor guy looks like he's gonna freeze in those shorts. (pauses) (grin) I also really like battle-torn Goku!
Goku: You can see my right knee! And parts of my legs and chest!
Chuquita: He and Piccolo (in super-cool cape and hat) were only available on the japanese version of Budoukai 2, along with Kuriza's son and a Neko Majin Z backdrop stage--however those last two aren't in this version of Budoukai either.
Goku: (chirps) Chapter 5 of NMZ comes out next month!
Chuquita: (holds up huge sign reading "Write Goku and Veggie into Neko Majin Z as main characters, Toriyama-san!") Heehee—
Veggie: (sweatdrops) Someone wants to see additional exploits of Kakarrotto and I.
Chuquita: (flips sign over to now read "Make a new dbz tv special starring Goku and Veggie and if I'm lucky the Fusions, Toei) The opening looks AMAZING on the semi-large tv behind me.
Gogeta: (smirks) I like how I defeat the big meanie in the opening.
Vegeta: (clasps his hands together) Yes that was a memorable moment.
Vejitto: (sweatdrops) How come Goggie gets entire scenes in the opening for Budoukai 3 and I only get a small sillouette in Budoukai 2's opening?
Gogeta: (chirps) Cuz you got more episodes and screentime in the actual show and manga, Jitto!
Vejitto: (blinks) ...you've got a point.
Chuquita: And now for Part 3! :D

Summary: It's that time of year again! Christmas! Two years have passed since Goggie's arrival and Vejitto has decided to throw him a surprise party! But what happens when the fusions are thrown for an even bigger surprise--Goggie's parents!After Goggie hears about all the wonderful things that have happened in his now-safe timeline, will he decide to go back with his parents and meet his "real" niichan for the first time? And what does Vejitto himself have to say about all this? Meanwhile, Goku tries to cheer up a depressed Veggie with a trip to buy the little ouji the ultimate Christmas present? Will Goku be able to succeed in his quest in finding the best gift ever for Veggie? In addition, Turles learns about mistletoe and its various uses in order to plot several evil deeds!
" ▫FWOOOSH▫! "
" WHEE! "
" WHEE! " the fusions cheered as the time machine hurtled through the space-time continuum.
" Enjoying yourselves? " Vegeta G sweatdropped at them.
Vejitto and Gogeta nodded excitedly.
" We haven't been time-traveling in 8 months, Toussan! " Gogeta said.
" And even then it was only by accident. " Vejitto added, then continued, " Never bring opened cans of pepsi inside
the time machine while its turned on. "
" A lesson well-learned. " the dance fusion nodded.
" You might want to wear these. " Goku G handed out sunglasses, " For when we stop. "
" Ooh. " Gogeta took a pair.
" Ahh. " Vejitto put his own.
" ▫FWOOSH▫! " a bright light overcame them and then instantly receeded at twice the speed of a taiyo-ken.
Vejitto and Gogeta opened their eyes and took their sunglasses off. The living room they now stood in looked almost
identical to the one back home--only this one was decorated in the proper holiday attire.
" Huh, Goggie your Bulma must be less busy then mine. " Vejitto observed.
" Oh no, haha, Veggie and Ji-chan and I did all this. " Goku G laughed.
" Hmm.. " Vejitto looked around cautiously and curiously for his own counterpart, unsure of what he would find once
he found him.
" What about Bulma then? " Gogeta asked as they all got out of the machine and Vegeta shut it off.
" Oh, she's even busier than the one in the main timeline, or what you consider the main timeline. " Vegeta G said.
Goku G spoke up, " Actually Mirai's is the REAL main timeline cuz that's the one the time machine was invented in
and what would've happened without time machine related inter-ference. "
" Anyway, Bulma's much busier in our timeline because she feels less guilty about leaving me alone to go on
business meetings and to science conventions when I have Kakarrotto living here with us to keep me company in her absence. "
Vegeta G explained.
" We haven't seen her in 3 months. " Goku G frowned.
" And she sounds terribly overworked on the phone when I do manage to get ahold of her. I hate how they work her
non-stop like this. " the ouji began to look worried, then smiled weakly, " But--but she says she'll be home for Christmas. "
" Yeah! Just like the song! " Goku G said happily, " OH! Wanna see our room? "
" YEAH! " Gogeta grinned.

" ...I don't think Mommy would take par-ticuarly well to seeing this sleeping arrangement. " Vejitto sweatdropped.
Before the quartet of saiyajin sat a two twin beds pushed together with a single full-sized-bed's sheet over them.
The sheets and pillowcases were a deep, passionate red. The room was softly lit with thick royal purple curtains over the
windows and sweet lulling music floating through the air. On the countertop sat a bottle of wine with two fancy drinking
glasses beside it. Across the counter were bottles of scented rubbing oil.
" Infact, I don't think Mommy would take particularly well to seeing this ROOM. "
" Hey, as long as its platonic we're perfectly safe. " Vegeta G folded his arms, " See, they can even be pushed
apart. Now if it was a SINGLE full-sized, queen-sized, or king-sized bed; heaven forbid; THEN I would start to worry. "
" Veggie-sama's afraid that sharing a single bed would lead to us having non-platonic feelings for each other. "
Goku whispered to the fusions.
" Don't tell them that! " Vegeta G exclaimed, bright red in the face. He sprayed himself with peasant-repel.
Gogeta walked over to a coat-rack that held two robes on it; a dark blue one with "Veggie" written on the back in
light-blue, and a pink one with a fluffy collar and sleeve-endings that had "Kakay" written on the back in red, " Toussan's
definately the platonic-seme in this platonic-bedroom! " he chirped.
Vegeta G grinned widely.
Vejitto sweatdropped, " Everything feels so opposite here. "
" That's cuz you prefer Toussan as Kaasan and Kaasan as Toussan, Jitto. " Gogeta said happily.
" So, " Vegeta G turned to them with a mischiveious expression on his face, " Wanna see Onna? "

" Ohhhhh, Veggie-sama I don't like it in here! " Goku G hugged tightly onto Vegeta's left arm while the ouji held
a christmas present under his right. The fusions walked behind them.
" Now now Kakay, it wouldn't be right if we didn't visit Onna to give her a christmas present. You know how much she
enjoys the holidays. " Vegeta G chuckled.
West City Sanitarium. Chi-Chi's "home" for the past year and a half. The hallway they were currently walking down
was fairly narrow; the reason why the fusions chose to walk behind their parents instead of beside was due to the lack of
elbow room. The hallway was nearly all white except for the dark silver handles on the doors and the small keypad on each
which was a lighter silver with red-lighted digits 1 through 9 just above said handle. Each door also had a very small
window near the top. The window was dark and high enough so that none of the patients could jump up and hurt themselves on
it. The hallway itself was very quiet, clean yet slightly damp. The floor was light brown and wooded with a light glaze
overtop. Vegeta G stopped infront of the door whose white plastic sign, fastened in the middle of the door, read S. Chi-Chi
in bold black letters on it.
" Well, here we are. " Vegeta G announced, " Kakay, do you have your card? "
Goku G nervously went through his pockets and pulled out what looked like a small credit card. He held it infront
of the keypad. A red light shot out from just above the number 2 and scanned his card.
" Access Approved. Please punch in your 4-digit extension. " the robotic voice of the keypad said. The digits all
turned bright yellow.
The large saiyajin reached towards the keypad with his pointer finger, then withdrew it out of panic, " VEGGIE-SAMA!"
he instead glomped onto Vegeta G in fright, " I can't do it she scares me SO! "
Vegeta G flushed red in the cheeks and Gogeta patted his kaasan on the back comfortingly.
Vejitto walked up to the keypad, " 4-digit extension...usually that's the last 4 digits of a person's social
security number. Hn...what was Chi-Chi's again? " he said to himself, frustrated. The portara fusion searched the
Goku-knowledge part of his memory and grinned when he found the answer, " HA! " Vejitto happily punched in the code.
The digits turned green, " Access Approved. " the voice repeated.
Vejitto smiled contently. A whirring sound could be heard from the inside of the room as if something was locking in
place. Goku G zipped behind the little ouji in terror as the white door slide sideways into the wall it was attached to to
reveal a thick plexiglas wall with an aggrivated Chi-Chi wearing hopital garments sitting across from them on the padded
floor with her back against an equally-padded wall.
" She doesn't look crazy to me. " Gogeta pouted, almost disappointed, " I mean, where's the straightjacket? Where's
the babbling and foaming at the mouth? "
" With Onna, its more of a trigger thing. " Vegeta G smirked, " She doesn't have a straightjacket because she's
never harmed herself in any of her fits of psychoticness. Besides this is a rather advanced facility. They only use the
jackets on the REALLY crazy people, " he walked infront of the glass, " Isn't that right Onna? "
Chi-Chi lundged at him and slammed her fists against the glass, " YOU DIRTY KUSOTARE! I'LL KILL YOU! I'LL KILL YOU! "
she snarled at Vegeta G.
" Well, I haven't heard Chi-Chi sound like that in a long time. " Vejitto laughed nervously.
" Now now Onna, you're not going to get very healthy with THAT attitude. " Vegeta tossed the present in his hand up
and down like a baseball.
" Says the person who STOLE my Go-chan and WARPED HIS HIGHLY SENSITIVE LITTLE MIND TO DO YOUR BIDDING! " now
she was starting to get that look in her eye. That crazy look she had when she first attacked Gogeta two years ago after
finding out the fusion was permanent and Goku and Vegeta were stuck in the same body together. The dance fusion lightly
shuddered, " DO YOU ENJOY PLEASURING HIM EVERY NIGHT, OUJI? " she spat the word out, " DO YOU! "
Goku G quietly stood just behind Chi-Chi's field of vision, shaking slightly. Simply hearing her voice brought
terrible nightmares back to the surface. Vegeta G reached out with his spare hand and held one of Goku's tightly. The larger
saiyajin partially calmed down. He squeaked out, " Veggie-sama-- "
::Shh, its alright Kakay:: the ouji soothed.
" He's THERE, ISN'T HE! " Chi-Chi snapped, " GO-CHAN! YOU SHOW YOURSELF RIGHT NOW! "
" Kakarrotto doesn't have to do ANYTHING he doesn't want to, Onna. " Vegeta G smirked, then turned in Goku G and
smiled, " No more rules, right Kakay? "
The larger saiyajin smiled warmly back, now completely calm again and with a feeling of relief and thankfulness
radiating through his ki.
" We brought you a Christmas present, Onna. " Vegeta G said as he continued to toss the present.
Chi-Chi grinned menacingly, her eyes practically glowing red, " Is it a carving knife to slice your brains
out, SHIMATTA! " she said pleasantly.
Goku G glomped protectively onto Vegeta G's head.
" ...thanks Kakarrotto. " the ouji said flatly, Goku's arms now covering his eyes. He peeled the larger saiyajin off
and calmingly set him back down on the floor, " No actually, but I think its something you'll enjoy just as much. " Vegeta G
slipped the small package through the equally-small opening in the top of the plexiglas. It fell to the floor and Chi-Chi
approached it with caution.
" It's a bomb. You're trying to kill me. " she accused him.
" What good would that do me? Seeing you slowly lose your grip on reality is a far better punishment than mere
death. " Vegeta G shrugged it off.
Chi-Chi continued her deadly stare at Vegeta G for a moment, then curiously picked up the gift.
::Heh, if looks could kill:: Vegeta G sweatdropped.
She slowly unwrapped the red-and-green-packaged gift and opened the cream-colored box to reveal a small yellow
Capsule Corp capsule.
" It was too large to fit through the hole. " Vegeta G commented.
Chi-Chi held the capsule out with one hand while continuing to stare angrily at Vegeta. She tossed it to the ground
and a puff of smoke later revealed to be a life-sized, realistic-looking Goku plushie. He was dressed in an outfit identical
to the one he wore fighting at the 23rd Budoukai. The plushie had no tail behind him and was smiling contently as it stood
there.
" ... " Chi-Chi stared at the realistic-looking Goku plushie like it was the answer to life itself. Her eyes
sparkled in awe and she lundged at it, knocking the plushie's back into the padded floor, " GO-CHAAA! " she glomped onto him
tightly, " Oh my sweet handsome Go-chan you've come back to me. " Chi-Chi cooed.
Both fusions turned to Goku G, who shrugged in confusion.
" I knew you'd come back. You ALWAYS come back. " she said with a smirk, " Even if it takes a little longer than
expected. " Chi-Chi began to fiddle with the plushie's gi sash.
" That seems like such a nice present to give someone who tried to kill you. " Vejitto blinked.
" Wait'll she finds out he's got no anatomy. " Vegeta G said with an evil grin.
" ... " Vejitto sweatdropped.
" The real mal-intent upon this gift is that Onna, among the rest of the patients here, are rarely ever allowed to
keep anything that big in their rooms. And that plushie is packed with a heavy stuffing to make him weigh nearly the same
as Kakarrotto himself. She could easily use him as a weapon to smack the guards who bring her meals in with and attempt to
escape. The workers here know that but they'll probably let her keep it for a few days after Christmas and then ship him
back to us; of course who knows what condition he'll be in by then. " Vegeta G said, then turned back to Chi-Chi, " Like
your present, Onna? "
Chi-Chi swerved her head in his direction, " YOU! DON'T YOU DARE EVEN LOOK AT HIM! YOU'RE NOT EVEN WORTHY TO LAND A
SINGLE GAZE UPON GO-CHAN AND HIS MAGNIFICANT BODY! " she stroked the side of the plushie's neck lovingly, " HE'S MINE! ALL
MINE! YOU WON'T TAKE HIM FROM ME! NOT OVER MY DEAD BODY WILL YOU TAKE MY GO-CHAN FROM ME YOU EVIL WICKED DEMON OUJI! " she
screamed with protective rage as she held tightly onto the plushie.
" Yeah...you're welcome too. " Vegeta G sweatdropped.
Chi-Chi's eyes roamed the room. Gogeta peeked his head into view again. She narrowed her eyes in the manner of a
murderer seeking out her intended victim, " YOU... " ::The one who started all this! The one who's existance turned Go-chan
over to the dark side...The Fusion::
" ... " Gogeta went pale, " Ji--JiTTO... "
" What am I supposed to do?! " Vejitto said, confused.
" Don't let her get me Jitto... "
" She's not going to get you that's one of the reasons why she's in there. " the portara fusion pointed to Chi-Chi.
He tapped on the glass, " See? Everything's oh-kay. "
The dance fusion smiled shakily at him.
" Come everyone, " Vegeta pressed the buttons on the keypad to lock the front door over Chi-Chi's room again. The
plexiglas slid back into the wall while the sound-proof, padded, and over-heavy door took its place, " Time to go. "
" She's...she's mad. Dellusional by the way she treated that plushie like it was Toussan. " Vejitto said in shock.
" Yup, Onna's snapped alright! " Vegeta cheerfully dusted his hands off.
The portara fusion glanced over at Gogeta out of the corner of his eye, ::I can't let Goggie stay here. It's too
dangerous. She'll break out and try to hurt him. I know this Chi-Chi wants to kill Mommy. But she might want to harm Goggie
even more! Because if Toussan and Mommy hadn't been stuck together in his body for such a long time none of this would've
happened; Toussan never would've been persuaded by Mommy's side of the story like that. That door looks strong. This
building looks strong. But Chi-Chi doesn't need to be physically strong to get her way. She'd find some way to escape
eventually. And I can't let her hurt Goggie I CAN'T! I would never forgive myself if something happened to him::
" ..Jitto? "
Vejitto looked up to see Gogeta standing infront of him looking concerned. Vegeta G and Goku G had stopped walking
and were now watching him as well from about 6 feet away.
" Are you oh-kay? "
The portara fusion reached over and glomped Gogeta tightly, " Goggie... "
" Uhh... " Gogeta's cheeks flushed.
Vejitto let go and perked up, " Let's get out of here Goggie! I'm sure there's LOTS of fun things to do back at
Capsule Corp! "
" YEAH! " Gogeta grinned, " We can even get to meet my timeline's you! "
" Ah-- " Vejitto faultered, then put a hand behind his head and laughed, " Hai, sure! "

" Hmmhmmhmm, hmmhmhmm! " Goku hummed happily. He had already gotten 3 of the dragon balls and was currently flying
towards the forth one. Mirai was tailing the larger saiyajin, Goku unaware he was being followed. He noticed where the 4th
dragon ball was on the radar and froze. Goku looked passed the radar at the spot down below. It was his house. And Chi-Chi's
ki was in said house, " Uhh... " he looked back and forth, then glanced back at his tail, " Maybe...I should wait until
Chi-chan leaves. I don't think she'd like it if she found out I was collecting the dragon balls to wish for a present for
Veggie. "
::But you don't know when she will be leaving. If you're real quiet you can probably sneak in and out without her
noticing:: Bibishii said optimistically.
" Oh-kay! " he nodded determindly and flew downward. Chi-Chi's ki was at the front of the house, ::Chi-chan's
probably in the living room:: he deduced, then climbed through the open kitchen window as to avoid the sound of opening the
back door. Goku glanced about the room, then saw it. The 4-star dragon ball was perched ontop of a sack of flour on one of
the cooking racks. He grinned and picked it up, " Heehee— 3 more to go little Veggie! " Goku beamed.
" Goku-san? Is that you? " Chi-Chi called from the living room.
Goku froze and bit his tongue at fear of being seen holding the radar and 4 dragon balls in his arms. He quickly
lept out of the window and blasted off.
Chi-Chi walked into the kitchen with the vaccum cleaner turned on full-blast in her right hand, " Hm... " she
scratched her head, confused, " Oh well. Can't hear ANYTHING over this stupid machine anyway. " she sighed and dragged it
back into the living room.

" SIGH.... " Vegeta sighed dejectedly as he sat on his bed. He never realized it until just now, but Capsule Corp
was unbelievably boring without the fusions around, " They said they'd be back in 5 minutes, where are they? " he looked at
his watch under his right glove, then pulled it back over and sighed again. The ouji glanced over at the fruit and
snack-laden baby carrier in the corner of the room. His hand almost came up to touch his stomach again until he stopped
himself, " NO! I won't think of it! OR that fresh jar of kaka-seeds in Bulma's lab. Neither are of importance to me! " he
folded his arms stubbornly, then glanced over at the closet in his room where he'd stuffed all the baby toys and blankets
after the Tummy3000 incident. Vegeta promptly turned his body to face the other direction, " I need someplace safe where I
can think on all of this. " he sighed, getting up off the bed. The ouji walked over to the small chunk of Bejito-sei Goku
had gotten him during a previous Veggietine's Day and sat down on it. He smiled contently, " Ah, much better. "
Nango sweatdropped.
" What, my mind feels clearer when I'm in my element. It was either this or the gravity room and I'm not too sure I'm
ready to see what happened down there with that explosion earlier. "
Vegeta's tail was silent for a moment, then spoke up, ::You still want the baby, huh?::
" WAH—! " Vegeta nearly fell over, " NO I DO NOT! " he snapped, his cheeks flushing red, " And--and even if I did I
would definately NOT be the "Mommy". I'm way too semeish in personality and stature for that. If either of us it should be
Kakarrotto....he's a good mother to Gogeta.....I hope Gogeta comes back. I mean, he and Bura..they're both on my side for
me being the platonic seme. And so is Bulma and the rest of my family. And maybe Raditsu, I have yet to ask him. "
" Hey Vegeta, are you--oh. " Bulma paused to see the ouji facing his tail and in the middle of a conversation.
" Yes? "
Nango tilted his head.
" Am I interupting anything? "
" Are the fusions back yet? "
Bulma sweatdropped at his suddenness, " No. "
" Oh. " Vegeta sighed, depressed, " I hope they come back soon. "
" Temporary seperation-anxiety? "
" Yes. Sort of. "
" Well..um. " she set the boxes of Christmas decorations down and sat on the edge of his bed, " So! Get anything for
Son-kun for Christmas yet? "
" I'm taking him to Bejito-sei, well, Bejito-sei's CHUNKS, for a picnic. He's wanted to do that since March. " the
ouji explained, " I've gotten all the food together but I have to refuel the Capsule 3 ship and clean it up. It's gotten
dusty since we last used it. "
" OH. " she said, surprised, " So you've planned this all out already. "
Vegeta smirked, " I like to prepare in advance. I also like to surprise; Kakarrotto's completely in the dark about
THIS particular present. You see what I'm going to do is take an empty box and put a picnic basket and a ticket ontop of it
with the ticket reading somewhat like an invitation to the picnic. "
" That's clever. " Bulma smiled, " So, who else is going? "
" ... " ▫
" I said, who else is going with you two, Vegeta? "
" What do you mean? " the ouji blinked.
" You're not...I...JUST you and Son-kun? "
" It is his Christmas present. " Vegeta sweatdropped, confused, " Why would you want to come anyway? The 10x Earth's
gravity would crush you. "
" I mean, more along the lines of bringing all the other saiyajin with you. "
" If they want to follow Kakarrotto and I there they can take Turles's ship, just as long as no one interferes with
the picnic. Besides the Capsule 3 can't possibly hold enough food to feed 6 saiyajin for an entire week. "
" A WEEK!? But it only takes you 1 or 2 days to get to Bejito-sei's remains from here using that ship. " Bulma
gawked.
" You don't think I'm going to spend only one day at home when I can easily spend 5 now do you? " he raised an
eyebrow, " We'll either sleep in the ship or at my house. And all the plants are still growing at home, if we run out of food
there's plenty of fruit and vegetables. "
" What about meat? "
" Freeza's blast apparently killed all the animals as well. "
" OH! Sorry... "
" ▫BRING▫BRING▫BRING▫! " Bulma's cellphone went off.
She picked it up, " Hello? "
" Kaasan. "
" Huh, oh Mirai, hi! What are you calling for-- "
" --is Toussan in the room? "
" Yes he's here. "
" Umm, do you think you could leave the room then? I really don't think he should hear this. " Mirai said uneasily
while he watched Goku pluck his 7th dragon ball out of a nearby pond.
" AND WHY DON'T YOU THINK I SHOULD HEAR "THIS". " Vegeta's voice said loudly from the background. Not shouting-loud,
but simply speaking loudly.
The demi-saiyajin sweatdropped, " I don't want you to freak out. "
" ...freak out. " Vegeta mumbled, confused.
" I'll, be right back, oh-kay Vegeta? " Bulma said, getting up.
" NO! I want to hear what he has to say. Is it about Vejitto and Gogeta? Or Kakarrotto?....oh my God something
happened to Kakarrotto didn't it!? " panic surged through him. The ouji got up and opened the drawer containing several
senzu.
" Son-san's FINE, Toussan. He's perfectly healthy. " Mirai responded.
" Oh....oh-kay. " Vegeta said with suspicion in his voice.
Bulma left the room and headed down to lab. Once she was inside the lab she closed the door behind her, " Alright
Mirai wait until I've gotten to the sound-proof room. I can talk to you there. " Bulma opened a nearby door and stepped
inside, " Alright. "
" Son-san's gathered the dragon balls. He's going to wish Bejito-sei back into a single whole planet again as a
christmas present for Toussan. "
" Oh, well that's nice of him. " Bulma smiled.
" And he's going to, wish for a third fusion-baby. "
" ...WHAT?! Why would he do that Vegeta's already been emotionally punched in the gut thanks to that fake baby and
now Goku wants to put him through pregnancy all over again!? "
" It, depends on how he words the wish really. He could just simply wish the baby into existance and bypass Toussan
getting "pregnant" at all. At least that's what happened in the---place I can't tell you about. " Mirai caught himself just
intime.
" This must mean Son-kun really wanted that child too, huh. " she mumbled in disbelief.
" He's been falling off into daydreams in mid-flight ever since he picked up his 5th dragon ball. Not a very safe
thing to do but at least he didn't get hurt. " Mirai paused, " Should I try to stop him from making the wish or deter him
somehow or...I mean, sure I'd love to have another little brother, or a little sister who's not Bura, but it was this entire situation and the living
together and bonding over the shared child that caused the 8th timeline to turn out the way it did. "
" In other words you don't mind if he makes the wish you just don't want it to cause Son-kun and Vegeta to...ah,
enter the field of non-platonic relationships. " Bulma tried to come up with a Veggie-ish way to explain herself.
" Yes. "
" ...hm. " Bulma thought for a moment, " Wait! The dragon balls! They only have one wish left on them for this year
since Son used them to make his oujo wish 6 months ago. That means he'll have to choose between the two wishes! "
" He knows that, he's trying to think up some way to get them both granted in the same wish. "
" Really. " she laughed nervously.
" Mmmm.. " Goku hugged the bag that now contained the dragonballs and the radar and slung it over his shoulder,
" I'd like to stay and chat but I'm getting hungry and its almost lunch-time. See you later Mirai! "
" HUH!? " Mirai looked over to see the large saiyajin waving to him as he hovered up off the ground, " G--Goku!? You
knew I was down here all this time? "
" Haha! Of course you've been following me since I left. I didn't really need any help though. " he laughed.
" Well, that's not really why I was--wait, aren't you going to make your wish? "
" I'm making it Christmas Eve! That way I can surprise Veggie with his homeplanet before he decides to randomly
look up at the sky late at night and see it. You can't wrap a planet up like a little gi or a box of chocolate-chip cookies,
ya know? " Goku smiled, " Besides if I made my wishes now everyone would know someone made some wish since the sky goes dark
when Shenlong comes out. "
" You do have a point, but-- " Mirai started out, confused.
" Later! " he grinned and waved, then blasted off.
" Huh.. " Mirai stood there.
" Mirai? Mirai? " Bulma's voice said on the cellphone.
The demi-saiyajin groaned, " Oh well, looks like I won't be going to bed early THIS Christmas Eve. "

" We're back! " Vegeta G announced as he, Goku G, and the fusions re-entered Gogeta's timeline's Capsule Corp.
" Mmm, something smells good, and microwavable! " Vejitto chirped.
" Hey guys. " Raditsu G poked his head out of the side of the doorway to the kitchen, " Want some popcorn? "
" GASP! Uncle Ditsu was brought back in this timeline TOO? " Gogeta gasped with excitement.
Raditsu G stared at him for a moment with surprise. He glanced back at Vegeta, " Is that--? "
" --the one and only. " Vegeta G smirked, " Raditsu, meet Gogeta. "
The largest saiyajin walked into the living room and shook his hand, " Hi, its great to finally meet you. "
" Haha, I saw you earlier today! " Gogeta laughed happily, then paused, " Only, it wasn't my you, it was Jitto's
you. "
" "Jitto..?" "
" My niichan! " Gogeta motioned to him, " He's from the main timeline where Onna's still mildly sane and Kaasan still
lives with her while Toussan lives at Capsule Corp with Jitto and I! Oh! And Turles lives at Capsule Corp too. You have your
own capsule house! "
" Goggie's gotten talkative... " Vejitto blinked.
" I'm just happy that Onna's been put in the place where she truely be-longs! " Gogeta grinned in a very Veggie-like
way.
" Hai..that's good Goggie, but,...youarecomingbackwithme, right? " Vejitto tried to keep calm and avoid the slight
twinge of panicked ideas in the back of his head.
" Huh? Of course I am Jitto. " Gogeta said happily.
" Who's Turles? " Raditsu G asked.
" Someone I'm infinitely lucky not to have met in this particular timeline. " Vegeta G muttered.
" ▫Ding▫! "
" The popcorn! " Raditsu G went over to get it while the others sat down at the kitchen table.
" So Uncle Ditsu, how long have you been living here? " Gogeta said.
" Hn, a little over a year now. " he responded.
" About a year ago there we had a situation with this "Janemba" creature. " Vegeta G started out, " It was a normal
day until all of a sudden zombies started to rise in the streets and many of our previous enemies such as Freeza and the
Ginyu Force somehow escaped out onto Earth. Kaio-sama contacted Kakarrotto and I and we teleported to otherworld to deal
with the source of this anamoly. We defeated him using the fusion dance and upon our return we ran into Raditsu. Apparently
Nappa had already been sucked back into otherworld and Raditsu was using a ki barrier to keep himself pinned to the ground.
After a brief chat we all decided that we would use the dragon balls to wish him back to life. After we did so I invited
Raditsu to live here with Kakarrotto, Vejitto, and I. " he explained.
" Huh. " Vejitto said, " It sounds sorta similar to what happened to us...but I guess with Chi-Chi in the mental
hospital there's no way she could've accidentally killed the both of you. "
" NANI?! " Goku G gasped in horror and clinged onto Vegeta G in fright, " CHI-CHAN KILLED US?! "
" Yeah, the meanie. " Gogeta angrily folded his arms.
" So, what about Brolli? " the portara fusion asked Vegeta G.
" Who? "
" What? "
" Him? You mean he's alive?! "
" ... " Vejitto sweatdropped. A small doom cloud hung over his head, ::Brolli still alive and out reeking havoc upon
the galaxy PLUS Crazed Psycho Goggie-killing Chi-Chi EQUALSa place where Goggie is not safe:: he gulped, " W--well he was alive in
our timeline. "
Vegeta G scratched his head, " Brolli...Brolli...that name sounds VAGUELY familiar. "
" He's the toddler your Toussan supposedly murdered after discovering Brolli was the densetsu so he could keep him
from taking over the throne and turning you into his otokohime. " Raditsu G told the ouji.
" Well I dunno about this timeline but in Jitto's Ojichan didn't kill Brolli at all...he just sorta thought he did
and Brolli and his toussan ended up escaping Bejito-sei somehow before Freeza blew it up. " Gogeta said, " If Brolli's alive
in this timeline...you're all in a lot of danger. "
" Danger...? " Goku G said, confused as he hugged onto Vegeta G tightly.
::With Toussan all uke-ish I don't know how any of them would EVER survive Brolli if confronted with him:: Vejitto
paled, " Ah, ya know what? How about you guys call us if you ever do run into him. That way Goggie and Toussan and I can come
help you. " he smiled.
" What about your me? " Vegeta G said flatly.
" Umm..he's sort of...not AFRAID, more like..uneasy...Mommy's very uneasy around Brolli due to his large girth and
obsessive behaviors. " Vejitto nodded.
" He was scary. " Gogeta paled just thinking about it.
" But now he's dead! And thus we are safe. "
" Indeed. :) " Gogeta grinned, then paused, " But what about, Turles? "

Somewhere, deep in space...
" We're 3 weeks away from entering Earth's atmosphere, Turles-sama. " the minion announced as he operated the
controls before him.
The evil type-3 saiyajin chuckled mischievously as he sat in the captain's chair and looked out onto the solar
system below, a bag containing seeds for the tree of might in his hands, " BWAHAHAHAHA! Excellent... "
dl

" ...why do I suddenly have the desire to barricade the doors and construct a large "Detour" sign above the planet? "
Vegeta G blinked.
" So? Goggie? Wanna go meet your brother? " Goku G asked him.
Gogeta turned to Vejitto the two contently shook hands, " Hi Jitto! "
" Hi Goggie! "
" ... " Raditsu G sweatdropped.
" He means this timeline's Vejitto. " Vegeta G corrected them.
" Sure! " Gogeta said, " I've never met another Jitto be-fore. "
" Well you're about to. " the ouji headed up the stairs, " Follow me. "

:::" MMMM, wow Veggie you have made such de-licious snacks for us all to enjoy! " Goku said happily as he and a
little-blue-gi-wearing Vegeta sat on a chunk of Bejito-sei enjoying a picnic lunch.
" I'm so happy you like the snacks, Kakay. " the smaller saiyajin gushed warmly.
" AWWWWW—— " Goku awwed, " Little Veggie would you please pass one of the fish sandwiches? "
" Of course, Kakarrotto. " Vegeta plucked an unrealistically large sandwich out of the quaint little picnic basket
and held it out, " Anything for you. "
Goku contently reached his arm out to take the sandwich from Vegeta only to hear a sudden yelp, " ? " he looked up,
" GASP?! "
A huge hand emerged from the backgroundless landscape behind them and grabbed Vegeta in one stroke.
" WAHHHHHH!! " Vegeta screamed as he dropped the sandwich to the floor, " LET GO OF ME YOU DISEMBODIED LIMB! " he
screamed half in anger and half in fright as he slammed his fists down repeated against the huge hand.
" VEGGIE! " Goku cried out, terrified.
" HELP ME KAKARROTTO!! " the limb was dragging Vegeta back into the dark backdrop.
Goku burst into ssj3 and ran to the edge of the island. Just as he was about to blast off after them his body
suddenly powered down again and a heavy painful objects clutched at his neck, arms, and legs, bringing him down to his knees.
The large saiyajin struggled and looked down at his restraints to see they were all made up of paper with familiar-looking
writings on them. It took him a second to recognize what they were; pages from Chi-Chi's rulebook.
" Now now, you don't need that little creature to be happy, Goku-san. "
Goku looked up to see the chains that were attached to the restraints were also each attached to one of the gigantic
Chi-Chi looming behind him's fingers, " CHI-CHAN I DO NOT HAVE TIME FOR THIS I GOTTA GO SAVE VEGGIE! "
" Mm, I can't let you do that. It's against the rules. " she smirked wickedly.
" Huh? " he blinked, " N--no its not. I know the rules by heart and there is nothing about-- "
▫FWIP▫! " a piece of paper appeared infront of him and a pen quickly scrawled down the sentence "No Risking Your
Life for the Ouji" on it.
" Ah..ah....you--you can't be SERIOUS?! " he gawked.
▫FWIP▫! " another piece of paper popped up reading "No Questioning me, Goku-san".
" But Veggie's in DANGER! I gotta save him before that giant hand does something AWFUL to him! " Goku cried out in
fright.
" The Ouji's very strong Goku-san. He can save himself. "
Goku struggled with his restraints, " NO HE CAN'T NOT FROM THAT THING! IF I DON'T SAVE VEGGIE NOBODY WILL! " he
cried out, " KAIO-KE--mmpH!? " a piece of paper slapped ontop of his mouth as a wind started to pick up. The wind was somehow
causing the grass to age around him, " Mmh? " Goku blinked. He looked down to see his gi was starting to get dusty and worn
while his body remained the same. A loud choking sound was heard from above and he looked up to see Chi-Chi was gone. The
chains however still remained hanging in the air, " Ptoo! " Goku spat the paper out, " Chi-chan? Chi-chan where did you go? "
he briefly wondered if the giant hand had stolen her away as well, " Veggie. " he grabbed at the paper around his collar
which was now as dusty as his gi though still as strong as it'd been several minutes ago, " I'M COMING VEGGIE! KAIO-KEN! "
Goku burst into kaio-ken x2 and grabbed again at the restraints only to be shocked at how he was still unable to free himself
from them, " AHHHhh..WHYISTHISNOTWORKING!! I DON'T HAVE THE TIME! VEGGIE'S IN DANGER! "
" WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH KAKARROTTO WHERE ARE YOU! " the ouji's voice sobbed in panicked desperation from the
background.:::
" --GASP! " Goku sat up in bed, every single nerve in his body at complete alertness and attention. He was panting
heavily as sweat rolled down the side of his face. The large saiyajin reached for his neck and let out a small sigh of minor
relief that there were no restraints there, " VEGGIE. "
" Goku-sa? " Chi-Chi poked her head into the partly-open doorway to his room, " I heard you scream..are you oh-kay? "
" Oh Chi-chan it was HORRIBLE! " he exclaimed, " A big hand stole Veggie and you were an evil giant with magical
powers who wouldn't let me go save Veggie and then you disappeared but I still couldn't get out of the papers you trapped me
in and Veggie started CRYING and--- "
" Hey, how about a hug, huh? " she said comfortingly, patting him on the head, then looked down and sweatdropped to
see Goku hugging his life-sized Veggie-plushie tightly, " ...not exactly what I meant. "
" Maybe I should go check on Veggie. " Goku said, holding the plushie more protectively.
" Goku-san its 2am. The ouji's asleep and I sincerely doubt that in real life giant bodyless hands can come out of
nowhere and kidnap people. " she tried to put it into perspective.
" But--but what about people kidnapping Veggie? " the large saiyajin gulped.
She sighed, " As much as I hate to admit this, the Ouji's a very intelligent person. Albeit an obsessive, uke-dom
fearing one, but still. I mean, he's the one who plotted out that entire "genki-dama to stop Buu" idea, right? I don't think
someone as smart and as strong as the ouji would be so easily kidnapped. "
" I su-ppose... " Goku trailed off.
" See? Now go back to bed, oh-kay? You wouldn't want to throw off your entire schedule you know. " Chi-Chi smiled and
got up, then left the room but not without glancing back once to glare at Plushie.
Goku pulled his Veggie-plushie under the covers with him and held onto it tight.

" Vejitto? " Vegeta G opened the door to the fusion's bedroom, " Come out and meet your brother. "
Vejitto and Gogeta looked at each other for a moment, then turned back to the door.
Vejitto G poked his head out of the doorway and stepped out.
" ... " ▫
" ... " ▫
" ... " ▫
" HI! " all three fusions and cheerfully in unison.
" WOW, so you're Gogeta huh. " Vejitto G said, looking him over. He turned to his counterpart and grinned, " And you
must be me! "
" That I am! " the portara fusion replied.
" Shall I leave you three to get acquainted? " Vegeta G offered, " After all I have some kaka-related "needs" to
attend to. "
An embarrassed yet delighted giggle bubbled up from downstairs.
" Heh-heh-heh....yes. " Vegeta G rubbed his hands together and sighed with contentment, " Ahh, the platonic-semeness,
what a magnificent thing it is. "
Vejitto sweatdropped.
" See you later. " the ouji proudly strode off.
" Later Toussan! " Vejitto G happily waved to him.
" WAHH-YAHHYAHH! " Vejitto nearly fell over in shock, " NANI?! Did you just call Mommy what I thought you called
Mommy?! " he gawked in disbelief, ::Has Mommy brainwashed everybody somehow?! This does not make sense at ALL!::
" "Mommy"? That's not Mommy, Toussan is going to MEET Mommy downstairs. " he pointed down to where Goku's ki was.
" HA! " Gogeta pointed at Vejitto in victory.
" What do you mean? " Vejitto G blinked, confused.
" Umm, me, why are you calling Mommy "Toussan"? " he asked.
" Well, at first I called Vegeta "Mommy", but after I went to go live here he asked me if I could call him Toussan
and Goku "Kaasan" because it would make them both very happy if I did so I did. " Vejitto G explained.
" HA! " Vejitto pointed back at Gogeta, who pouted.
" Why are you "ha-ing"? "
" Be-cause even though Goggie and I get a-long amazingly well, we're in a dispute over who should be Toussan and who
should be Mommy. " he replied.
" Ah, that is a hard decision. " Vejitto G nodded, " ...So! Wanna go play? "
" YEAH! "
" YEAH! "

" Hmmhmmhmm! " Goku hummed as he walked down the stairs and into the kitchen, passing Chi-Chi and Goten at the
kitchen table, " Mornin' Chi-chan, mornin' Goten. I'm going to get some breakfast, be right back! "
" Heh—— "
" ? " Goku paused just before reaching for the doorknob, " Chi-chan? "
" HO HO! " she plunked a thin square box onto the kitchen table, " Goku-san I have solved the messy riddle that was
your nightmare! "
Goku gasped with excitement, " You have? "
" As you may know, one's dreams are images created during sleep while the brain sorts out the memories of the
previous day and days past, in addition to subconsious thoughts/fears/desires. " Chi-Chi held up the box, " Do you recognize
this box, Goku-sa? "
" Sure! That's one of Goten's old videogames. "
" Correct. Have you ever played it with him? "
" Lots of times. " he grinned, then frowned, " But I'm not very good at videogames, Chi-chan...now VEGGIE, Veggie is
the best videogamer EVER! You should see Veggie in action Chi-chan he's got the high score on every single videogame at
Capsule Corp! " Goku excitedly rambled.
" Yes, good for him. " Chi-Chi muttered, " Anyway, I looked on the back of this game while cleaning up this morning
and what did I find but the villain in this game is a GIANT HAND. " she whipped it around to show Goku, " You see, your
dream wasn't any premonition of oncoming evil, it was simply a fantastical twisted-up version of this videogame and your
inability to properly defeat it due to your lack of videogame knowledge. "
" ...but Chi-chan, that bad guy hand is wearing a glove. The one in my nightmare didn't have ANYTHING over it. "
Goku pointed out, " A glove and a hand are two different things, Chi-chan. "
" Hnn... " she stared at the box.
" The glove kinda looks like one of Veggie's. " Goku grinned.
" Can we not talk about the Ouji this early? I haven't even had breakfast yet. " Chi-Chi groaned.
" O---sorry Chi-chan, it's just that it reminds me of Veggie since he's wearing white gloves all the time. " he
smiled sheepishly, " Though I wish Veggie would take them off once in a while and let his little Veggie-hands breathe.
Keeping them inside those gloves all the time CAN'T be healthy. "
" Let him wear 'um then. " Chi-Chi chuckled.
Goku sweatdropped, " Would Chi-chan or Goten like any fish? "
" No thanks, Toussan. I'm having waffles for breakfast! " Goten chirped.
" I'm making some scrambled eggs for myself, so don't overdo it at the river, otherwise the remaining fish are
going to rot. " Chi-Chi motioned to the fridge, " We have barely any room left in there. "
" Ohh...oh-kay then. " Goku nodded, then left the house, " I'll be back in a lil bit! "
" Bye Goku-san. "
And with that he teleported away.

" ▫YAWWWWWWWN▫! " Vegeta let out a yawn as he opened his eyes to face the ceiling. The ouji shifted uneasy, still
half awake. No matter how many times he went to sleep on his stomach and/or side he always wound up on his back. Vegeta
grimaced; sleeping on his back made him feel uncomfortable, too vulnerable, too uke-ish. He squnched his nose up in distaste
and turned over onto his stomach again only to flop onto his right arm, which for some reason didn't pull out from under him
in time. Despite no longer being under the covers, his right hand felt unusually warm. Vegeta dully noted this with the
alertness of someone who'd only been awake so far for a grand total of 3 minutes. He turned his head sideways on his pillow
to see his arm only to spot another hand of almost the same size as his own rubbing it.
Vegeta instantly went pale and his bottom left eyelid began to twitch as every sleepy nerve awoke with a shot.
Goku was sitting there on a chair next to Vegeta's bed, rubbing the ouji's naked hand with childish curiousity and
awe. He smiled and closed his eyes, " Veggie's hands are so soft. " he opened his eyes and warmly looked up only to see
Vegeta now awake and staring at him in complete shock, the ouji's eyes bugging out of his head, " OOP! " Goku gasped and his
face turned bright pink, " Ahh--- " he lept to his feet, abandoning his hold on Vegeta's right hand.
" ... " ▫
" HI Veggie—! " Goku re-caught himself and chirped happily, " And how are you this wonderful December morning? "
" ... " Vegeta stared at him blankly, then leaned over and picked up his pillow. He let out a humongous muffled
scream into the stuffed object smushed against his face, then panted heavily when he finished almost half a minute later. Vegeta
shakily set his pillow down and sat up, then turned to face Goku and mustered as much pride and seme-ness as he could this
early, " Kakarrotto. " he nodded.
" :) " Goku smiled back and wagged his tail behind him.
" WHAT THE HECK WAS THAT?! " he exclaimed, pointing to his hand.
" Oh? " Goku nearly fell backward, startled, " Umm, well, I had a nightmare. " he said quietly.
The ouji watched him, intregued.
" In it, you were kidnapped by a giant hand and I couldn't save you cuz a giant Chi-chan had my neck and arms and
legs all wrapped up in manacles but they weren't made of metal they were made of pieces of paper from the Rulebook and had
chains that led up to her fingers and they sent me from ssj3 down to normal form and when I tried to go after you again
she kept writing out new rules to stop me and I panicked and then everything around me got really old and Chi-chan
disappeared but the manacles and the chains were still there and I STILL couldn't free myself and I tried to use kaio-ken
and that worked but I was still stuck and then you started to cry and sob vio-lently from out in the darkness and I knew I
had to save you cuz nobody else could and-- "
" ... " Vegeta stared at him, wide-eyed.
" --and then I woke up. " Goku finished, " Oh Veggie I don't know HOW I could've missed seeing a hand that huge
coming for you! It just came out of NOWHERE and....Chi-chan tried to figure out the dream after I told her about it and
she thought it had something to do with videogames but I don't think so. "
The ouji sat there, trying to take it all in, " ..and, you told Onna about this dream already. "
" I only gave Chi-chan the edited version--c-cuz I'm afraid she'd get mad if she knew I dreamed about her as a bad
guy and the rules that way. What I just told Veggie was everything. " Goku said, " OH! And in the beginning, before the
big hand came for you, you were in your little blue gi and we were having the best time ever enjoying a picnic on
Bejito-sei just me 'n Veggie! That part in the beginning made me REALLY happy. "
" You'd like to go on a picnic there, eh. " the ouji's mouth quirked up into a sneaky smile.
" MMM-HMM! That'd be the BEST, Veggie!! " Goku beamed.
Vegeta tried to hide his grin, " Well you never know, Kakarrotto. " he gave a forced cough to surpress the grin and
then changed the subject, " Now about this.."dream". "
" Does Veggie think it was a premonition or a nightmare? "
" Preme--Kakarrotto I don't think-- " Vegeta started out.
" But it's been coming for a while now Veggie, a LONG while! I keep having this feeling that something terrible is
going to happen! Besides back when I was on Snake Way I had nightmares of Veggie and Nappa coming to Earth and hurting
Chi-chan and Gohan--and that was even before I knew what Veggie looked like! And I've had nightmares of Freeza arriving on
Earth and destroying everyone if I didn't get there in time...and of the androids killing Chi-chan and Kuririn and Gohan. "
Vegeta sat there for a moment then turned to directly face Goku, " Your nightmare. "
" I've picked apart MANY of my own. You're afraid something bigger and more powerful than you is going to kill me, or
torture me or something. You may or may not stand a chance to safe me. You can't tell. Now Onna doesn't have to do with
whatever is happening to me, she's there as the manifestation of your feeling of rebellion against her rules. "
" Oh Veggie I would NEVER re-bel against Chi-chan! " Goku gasped.
Vegeta smirked at him, " Deep inside you want to, break free of her ridiculous restrictions. But you're too loyal to
Onna to physically do anything about it. You may agree with her on some points but your own morals are vastly different
than the ones she's forced down your throat and practically choked you with. "
" ... " a blushline appeared over Goku's nose and the larger saiyajin stared at the smaller one intensely, " Veggie
understands me. " his voice was thick with some overflowing emotion.
Vegeta yelped at the expression on Goku's face and backed away further onto his bed. He looked away to try and avoid
what appeared to be an extremely powerful gaze, " A--a--a--and th--erein lies your d-e--dilemna. You uh, you either obey
The Rules and d-d--o as O-nna says at the risk of..losing...me; or you, you ah, defy her and..and break the rules eh--in an
attempt to--s.....aaaa...save me. "
" ▫GLOMP▫! " Goku glomped onto him tightly from behind.
The ouji's body twitched, ::It's WAY too early in the morning for me to be dealing with this much kaka-filled
conversation!:: " HEY! " he said suddenly, sliding out of Goku's grasp, " How about we go get some breakfast! Would you
like something nice and warm and pumped full of sugar for breakfast, Kakarrotto? "
" Silly Veggie, you're not edible. " Goku laughed, amused.
" ... " this time Vegeta's face turned a pale blue. He gulped, " Ah...PANCAKES! Yes! I'll make a batch of pancakes
for each of us to enjoy! " he shakily got off the bed and pushed Goku towards the open door, " You like pancakes, don'tcha
Kakarrotto? "
" I like EVERYTHING Veggie cooks and or bakes! " Goku said happily, now seemingly back to normal, " Veggie's the BEST
snack-maker EVER! " he gushed, then paused, " OH! But--but don't tell Chi-chan that. "
Vegeta sweatdropped and flatly remarked, " Trust me, I won't. "

" Rock paper scissors SHOOT! "
" Rock paper scissors SHOOT! " Vejitto and Gogeta shouted in unison. They both looked down to see they had rock.
" Rock paper scissors SHOOT! " they now both had paper.
" Wow you guys are incredible! " Vejitto G gawked, " It's been almost an hour and you've tied each other over 120
times in a ROW! "
The three fusions were trying to decide who should face who first on the ps2; since the machine only handled two
controllers at once. Vejitto G had beaten Gogeta for controller #1, and now the dance fusion was facing off with the main
timeline's portara fusion for control of controller #2.
" This is one of those few down-sides a-bout being so insync with each other. " Gogeta laughed sheepishly, " Jitto
and I tie nearly every time we compete with each other. "
" I cannot e-magine what that must be like. " Vejitto G said in awe, " I've been an only child for so long... "
" It's lots of fun! " Vejitto piped up, " Goggie and I go on adventures together all the time! "
" Mmm-hmm! " Gogeta nodded in agreement.
" But we can't just keep ro-sham-bo'ing all day... " Vejitto folded his arms in thought.
" Ooh! Jitto's getting an idea! "
" AH! " the portara fusion pumped his fist in the air, " I've got it! A way to decide which of us gets to go first! "

" Cups? " Vejitto G poked one of them. His counterpart had set up three plastic cups on the floor, then pulled a
rubber bouncy ball out of his pocket.
" Oh-kay me, since neither Goggie or I can predict what you're going to do, I want you to be the one to do this. Hide
this ball under any of these cups while we have our backs facing you. Then you re-arrange the cups for as long as you like.
When you're finished, tell us and we'll each pick a seperate cup, one for me and one for Goggie. Whichever of us picks the
cup with the ball under it gets to use controller #2 first. "
" Sounds simple enough. " Vejitto G smiled, " Alright, turn around! "
The fusions did so while Vejitto G placed the bouncy ball under the cup on the center, then began to switch the cups
positions on the floor in random spots until he stopped a minute later, " Oh-kay! I'm done! "
" Great! " Gogeta said as they both turned back around. Gogeta reached for the right cup and Vejitto the left,
" Ready Jitto? " he smirked.
" Ready. " Vejitto smirked back.
" ▫POOMF▫! " they both yanked their cups off the ground to reveal...one bouncy ball under Vejitto's cup and another
under Gogeta's cup.
Vejitto G stared in shock, " Gasp! But how is that possible! I put it under-- " he lifted the center to reveal it
was completely empty, " You were not kidding when you told me about all that tieing with each other. "
" We are two peas in a pod, other Jitto! " Gogeta grinned.
Vejitto picked up the two balls, " Maybe it had a baby? "

/dl
And so it was decided. Well, not by chance, but Vejitto decided to simply let Gogeta use the #2nd controller first
and that he would play the winner of the first match. Currently Gogeta was going against Vejitto G again. The saiyajins
rapidly hit the buttons on their controllers.
" ▫Knock▫knock▫knock▫ "
" Come in! " Vejitto shouted.
" Hey everybody! " Goku G walked into the room looking sweaty and wearing his robe--of which Vejitto disturbedly
stared at bug-eyed for a second, " Veggie-sama says we're going to be taking you two back home soon after we get cleaned
up. "
" Why are you all sweaty, Kaasan? " Gogeta asked.
" .......umm, Veggie-sama. "
" Oh. " Gogeta nodded, confused.
" I'm gonna go get ready now. " Goku G got up and left the room.
" I am not completely sure just WHAT to make of this timeline, Goggie. " Vejitto murmured, baffled.
" Me neither. " Gogeta folded his arms, " Say, you know who we haven't seen yet who is probably lurking around here
somewhere? Bu--mmph?! "
Vejitto slapped his hands over the dance fusion's mouth, " SHHHHH! Do not SAY it Goggie! Do not even think it! " he
warned nervously, then pointed of into the distance while keeping one hand over Gogeta's mouth, " For if Toussan is
comfortable e-nough in this timeline to walk around wearing a fuzzy pink bathrobe who KNOWS how strong her powers must be. "
he shook his fist.
The portara fusion's counterpart watched him, then got it, " OH! " he finally said, " You mean Bu--mmpH?! " Vejitto
slapped his formerly free hand over Vejitto G's mouth.
" Yes. "
" Ah... " Vejitto G said, muffled.
" Hi Vejitto-kun. " a voice said from below.
" Maybe..if we don't look down, she won't see us. " Gogeta whispered.
Bura G stared up at him, " Who are you? "
The trio of fusions glanced over at her. This Bura looked exactly like the main timeline's version with the exception
of her t-shirt which read in a happy-looking font "Go Kakarroujo!"
" Umm, hi Bura, this is my ototochan..Gogeta. " Vejitto G introduced him.
Bura looked up at him and grinned, " OHHHH! So YOU'RE Gogeta-kun! How cute! " she tugged at his pant-leg. Bura
smirked, " So, Gogeta, have you ever had a makeover? "
Gogeta paled.
" Come Goggie! " Vejitto quickly grabbed him and Vejitto G and zipped out of the room.
" Hee— thank you Jitto! " Gogeta said gratefully.
Vejitto grinned, " Don't mention it! "

" MMMMMMMmmmm—— " Goku mmm'd happily as he ate, then let out a large, content purr.
Vegeta and Bulma shifted around in their seats; also eating breakfast.
" Umm, Vegeta? " Bulma whispered, " Why is Son-kun eating breakfast here with us instead of at his own house with
his own family? "
" So YUMMY! MMMMMMmmm! " Goku took another bite of his syrup-drenched pancakes.
Vegeta's face flushed bright red. He quickly sprayed it with peasant-repel, " I offered him breakfast in order to
change the topic. He had a nightmare and I explained it's meaning to him and suddenly he thinks I "understand" him. " he
whispered back, then shuddered, " I've never seen Kakarrotto stare at me with such mushy-intensity before. It was like he
was tearing down every single mental barrier I own with nothing more than a simple GAZE! "
Another warm purr came from across the table.
" I think he's enjoying those pancakes a little TOO much. " Bulma sweatdropped.
" Hmm? " Goku looked up at them innocently with his fork still in his mouth.
::Maybe we should do this telepathically:: Vegeta laughed nervously.
::Agreed::
::So...::
::So...::
::Do you, have any way to get him out of here? I mean, you know send him back home? Chi-Chi's likely to think you
tricked him into coming here if Son-kun doesn't appear back at home soon. I mean, he can only be off "fishing" for so long.::
Bulma pointed out.
::Let Onna come. I don't care:: Vegeta snorted, ::Kakarrotto's enjoying his breakfast and that's all that matters::
Bulma smiled wryly, ::It's good::
Vegeta looked over at her curiously.
::You're not as uptight as before about it. Not worried that Chi-Chi's going to come over here and find you and
Son-kun in a compromising yet platonic position of some sort. Studies have proven you're healthier when you reduce your
everyday stress like that::
::Says the person who's leaving for one of 6 meetings in just under an hour and half:: Vegeta sweatdropped.
::Hey, I won't be gone long. And when I get back I'll continue to help you and everyone else decorate, alright?:: she
got up.
" Alright. " Vegeta said sadly.
" Veggie need a hug? "
The ouji glanced to his left to see Goku suddenly sitting there with his arms outstretched, " AHH! " he jumped back,
nearly landing ontop of Bulma, " NothankyouKakarrottoImperfectlyfine! " he panically waved his arms in the air. Vegeta's
face was starting to flush red again.
Goku blinked, then tilted his head in confusion, " Well, oh-kay Veggie. "
" I have to get going now. " Bulma said.
" Going? " Goku said, then frowned, " Where? "
" I have to get ready for my meetings today. " she replied.
" Yeah, ya better get ready. " the little ouji sighed.
" Veggielonely? " Goku looked over at him, worried, " I could stay over and keep Veggie company if-- "
" --I'm fine! Really Kakarrotto. I have PLENTY of things around here to keep my interest-- "
" ▫FLASH▫! " a bright light exploded from the living room.
" --and there's one now! " he pointed off and headed into the living room where his counterpart, Goku's counterpart,
and three fusion sat in the time machine, " Wait, THREE?! "
" Hi Toussan! " Gogeta waved as they all got out, " I would like to introduce to you my newest niichan, who is also
Jitto as well! "
" HI alternate-timeline Toussan! " Vejitto G said happily, looking down at Vegeta.
" Hi Ji-chan! " Goku waved back.
The portara fusion glanced over at him, slightly confused.
Vegeta's eyes widened, " WAIT. "
" Yes? "
" Did you just call, ME, "Toussan"? " he asked with slight eager anxiousness.
" I have a feeling you would really enjoy Goggie's timeline, Mommy. " Vejitto laughed nervously.
" Did, did he just call ME "Toussan"? " Vegeta was grinning this time.
" Course I did who else would you be? " Vejitto G tilted his head.
" ... " the ouji beamed, then looked over at his counterpart and narrowed his eyes, " I envy your unbelievable luck
with every passing minute. "
" My timeline is also Turles-less, Brolli-less, and Onna's in a mental institution. " Vegeta G smirked.
" ...every passing second. "
" HEH— "
" And to think all I had to do was simply give in to Kakarrotto's little "heehee"-song and dance. " the ouji shook
his head in disbelief.
" Yup, it was that easy. " his counterpart grinned.
" Hey me, wanna help Goggie and I find a Christmas Tree? " Vejitto asked Vejitto G.
" We're gonna find the biggest tree that could possibly fit in the living room EVER! " Gogeta said cheerfully.
" And if we can't do that, we'll find an average-sized tree and use Bulma's enlarging-ray to make it the biggest
tree that could possibly fit in the living room EVER. " Vejitto happily added.
" Oh-kay! " Vejitto G chirped.
" Alright then! " Vejitto said determindly, " TO THE FUSION MOBILE! "

END OF PART THREE!
Vegeta: (sweatdrops) That's the end of the chapter?
Chuquita: It felt like it to me. (grins) Besides If I added the next scene here, the chapter would move off into that
"ridiculously large" territory. And it's really hard to remember stuff from a ridiculously large chapter....unless you read
it in bursts. (nod)
Goku: Hee, lots of Goggie and Ji-chan in THIS chapter.
Chuquita: (happily) Yup! I thought I more evenly balanced the two stories in this part as compared to 1 'n 2 which leaned
more into your story.
Vegeta: (smirks) I'm delighted that I was able to avoid the dreaded mistletoe this chapter.
Chuquita: (grin) :)
Vegeta: (uneasy) Uhh...what's that supposed to mean?
Chuquita: Turles's "Master Mistletoe Plan"...is in Part 4.
Vegeta: (looks up at chapter) (suspicious) I see no "plan" listed above.
Chuquita: I didn't have room for it in this chapter cuz I was busy with the fusions, but next chapter...(ALMOST evil grin)
Goku: HeeheeheeheeBWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA---
Vegeta: o.O (gawking at them in shock and disbelief)
Chuquita: (face goes blank again as if nothing happened) ...
Goku: A---a....heehee? (nervous smile at Veggie)
Vegeta: (twitches with nervousness) ::And neither of them has even im'd in a WEEK::
Chuquita: (back to normal) ANYWAY! Now that that's over with onto the reviewer-replies!
To Blood-Red Amber: He'd be very sad if Goggie left, however Goggie's staying so he'll be oh-kay :) Depending on how much of
the story there is left to go, I'd say one or two chapters.
To Fan: Thanks! No, this timeline's difference between it and the main one is that while inside Buu, Veggie G decided to go
with Goku G's plan to use the fusion dance, while in the main timeline he refused and called it a "stupid pose". Glad you
like the mistletoe, that plot should reach its climax in part 4. Yup, fusion-babies are fun!
To RyukoVulpix: Thank you! Son-kun?
Goku: (grins) I celebrate it early! Afterall even if its 7pm here its gotta be midnight somewhere!
Chuquita: We're in "Eastern Time" here.
To RyukoVulpix: Thanks for the input on the fusion-baby! Ah, science. Heh, science course I'm taking next semester (a few
weeks from now) includes fusion-related topics.
Vejitto: (Holds up x-ray of Goggie while Goggie stands beside him)
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) Not that kind of fusion.
To RyukoVulpix: Holiday shopping is indeed crazy. I'm so glad its over! Hope you like Goggie's timeline!
To Lady Sakura-chan: Thanks so much! I think part 3 went pretty well :) Ah, another unoffical fusion-baby-gender-vote. I
should have decided what I'm going to do concerning the wish, if a 3rd fusion does come into existance, and if so what gender
will it by the end of part 4. Lol! That sounds funny though. Actually I'd be keeping the 3rd fusion baby in toddler/chibi
form since my fics run in semi-realtime. I dunno what he or she would do in gt-parodies or if he or she'd be present at all.
To SacredGoggles:
Vegeta: (to SacredGoggles) (plays victory song on nearby piano) (zips back to the desk) (grinning excitedly) THANK YOU FOR
DEFENDING MY SEMENESS! I should draw her a picture. (draws a quick Veggie-doodle of himself in saiyajin armor and hands it
to SacredGoggles) :) (wags his tail with contentment)
Chuquita: (looks over at Veggie) ...
Vegeta: I'm HAPPY! :D My ego feels so boosted right now.
To SacredGoggles: You do make several good points.
Vegeta: Yes! Have Kakarrotto wish to have the fusion-baby! I luv it! (pumps his fists in the air)
Goku: (cheeks flush pink)
To SacredGoggles: Glad you like the fic. Aw, I wouldn't forget about Goggie's parents. I figured since they were introduced
in a previous Christmas Special why not bring them back during another one. :) Heh-heh, my outline for what the girl
fusion-baby would look like does look more similar to Goku than Veggie. My current name for her if it turns out to be a girl
would be "Geta". Hee— (holds up a box of genki-dama candy) Yup! Though I only ate one of them so far cuz they get all
jelly-like once the shell's gone. They're good though. That, the chocolate bars, and the jawbreakers are all sold at the
Suncoast at the mall I go to. I haven't tried one of the chocolate bars yet. Of course Goten and Trunks's tails will show up
again :) They still have them. You're welcome!
To Nuki: Merry Christmas! Vote #3 for a girl fusion-baby! Good reason. (points to her Budoukai 3 game) Only 2 female fighters
in the whole lineup! (sweatdrops). Really? The homeplanet wish is definately going to happen. I'm undecided on the fusion
baby now because I got a nearly tied vote on the gender (6 reviewers want it to be a girl, 5 reviewers want it to be a boy,
1 reviewer wanted twins, and 5 reviewers didn't specify which gender they wanted the possible-fusion-baby to be). So now I'm
offically confused and may end up delaying the possible-fusion-baby's possible-existance until sometime after Fic #100 unless
I can figure something out by next week (part 4). I hope you do find another Veggie figure. Ever since gt came out here it's
near-impossible to find any dbz figurines at all O.o If I ever get up to that store again (it was at a mall I don't visit
that often) I'll pick up their Jitto and Goggie figures 'n scan 'um to see if those are the ones you're talking about :)
I know they are posable ones though, and both in ssj. Maybe I could get a picture of 'um at Bandai's website (Kaka-zilla has
a website listed on his packaging). :D
To tea: Thanks! Turles's mistletoe plot should be full-blown by part 4. That was one of my favorite scenes from the previous
chapter, Goku disobeying the rule. She's definately lost in Goggie's timeline. Heehee. I had lots of this chapter devoted to
the fusions and Goggie's timeline. Yup! Raditsu's here! Veggie and Turles's revenge plan is in the next chapter as well.
To Gokurper: Thank you! Welcome to ! :) You don't have to be logged in to review though, unlike DA where you can't
review unless you are a member. The only difference if you review and then log in is the story won't display on your recently
reviewed fics page. I'm so happy you like the doodles! Twins would be interesting. Thanks!
To Lchan: Thanks so much! The Veggie-wearing-Bulma's-skirt scene randomly appeared, I had fun with it. Thank you for your
fusion-baby-opinion! I'm looking at part 3 of Budoukai right now, that's weird that its cut off like that. The whole thing
was there before...you know its cut off right before I had one of those little circles I use inplace of the fuzzy insignia.
I'm gonna see if 's "remodeling" fixes the page (they did say they were currently in the middle of it). If you give me
your e-mail I can e-mail part 3 to you, AND since it'll still be in microsoft word form you'll be able to read it how it's
supposed to look on the screen with the indents, single-spaced, etc. :) Aww, thanks for the present! Happy New Year!
Vegeta: Heh-heh, (opens his can of egg-nog).
Goku: (takes a sip of his own can) Thank you!
Chuquita: Yup I've had it before, it's not that bad :)
Vejitto: (grins and opens a bag)
Gogeta: I wonder what would happen if you ate a whole bag at once?
Turles: (smirks) Why thank you, reviewer. Heh-heh, (carries the mistletoe off).
Mirai: Aw, I appreciate the present. (grins) And being acknowledged in general!
To Hakura0: Lol, sorry 'bout that. I just paste whatever's in the reviewer-name-box. I know there is a local Toys R Us up
near the mall. (about 15 minutes away). I wish I had a credit card. If I had one I would have a large pile of dbz doujinshi
sitting next to me right now (grins). Happy New Year! Thank you for the fusion-baby opinion! I was gonna name him Veggie Jr
but then I realized there already is a gt character named that (Veggie's great great grandson infact) so I'm gonna need to
come up with a new name for him if the baby turns out to be a boy. :)
To ShiningMoon: Thanks so much! YAY for confetti! :D I'm really enjoying Kali's fic :) The magic trick was fun. Heh, poor
Mirai. That would make for an interesting-looking gift. (imagines Veggie waking up to see his stomach gift-wrapped) Lol! The
fusion-baby would be an actual baby, or toddler. Thank you for the fusion-baby opinon! I just posted a new pic there with
both possible fusion-babies. :)
To PerfectCell17: Thanks! His plot continues in part 4. :) Turles is in both Movie 3 and in the animated dbz gaiden
"Plot to Destroy the Saiyajins" that goes to a videogame. Haha, Veggie's so very paranoid when it comes to Goku. The skirt
part was fun and random. There might be, if not by the end of this fic then sometime after fic 100. Budoukai's LOTS of fun!
Especially Veggie's DU. I'm halfway through it right now and there's some hilarious parts with Veggie going to talk to Goku
at his home and Bulma overhearing Veggie's evil plots through the wall of the gravity room which Veggie was under the
impression of being sound-proof :D So happy you liked the chapter!
To Jenna & Vash: I just started playing Veggie's DU yesterday. Heh-heh, it was funny when Bulma complimented Veggie on being
handsome in the saiyajin saga of his DU when you go to the Kame house. :D Veggie replies saying she just said that to avoid
"being captured". I don't think she would compliment him like that until she knew he wasn't dangerous (and she does in the
show when she finally offers him to stay at Capsule Corp). I mean, in the Freeza saga she has a nightmare about an evil
Veggie with glowing red eyes coming and threatening her to give him the dragon balls. Ooh! I heard about the fusion battle!
Gogeta VS Gotenks, right? I haven't gotten there yet. Brolli looks HUGE in the screenshots, but I have yet to unlock him.
(though I do know HOW to unlock him). Thanks! I wish you goodluck on it as well!
To JustSomeGuy: Thanks! And thank you for the fusion-baby opinion! I have no idea which I'm going to choose yet, if I make a
3rd one at all.
To BlackDragonFury: Glad you like it! Thanks for the fusion-baby opinion. With a near tie of votes for each gender, I have
no idea what I'm going to do with the fusion-baby. (sweatdrops) I'll figure it out though. Vejitto's very worried about
losing his partner in randomness. I've unlocked Veggie, Recoom, Ginyu, Freeza, Fat Buu, Super Buu, Vejitto,and Kid Buu so far. I
actually unlocked Goku's voice-clips before unlocking his breakthrough with the wish cuz I wanted to hear the clips and
didn't know breakthrough gave me ssj4 (sweatdrops) but that's oh-kay since I need to go through Goku's DU a second time to
get some of the characters you've unlocked. OOH! A new version of Chibi Chaos sounds like so much fun! I can't wait to read
it! Aww, the Goku, Veggie, and Chibi Vejitto fic sounds lots of fun too! (is all excited now).
Vegeta: (walks over and gives BlackDragonFury a hug) (grins) THANK YOU, reviewer who supports my semeness! (lets go and walks
back over to the desk) (to Goku, Chu, and the fusions) I am REALLY enjoying this session of reviewer-replies.
Gogeta: So am I! :)
Vegeta: (sniffles with joy) So many people coming to support my seme-ness! It makes me feel so wonderful inside! (grins) I
think my pride's almost back to pre-Turles levels!
To GogetaJr: The site can do that to ya when there's too many people on it at once. I know. (nods). Aw, don't worry it's
definately a possibility. The details of if, when, how, which gender, and who's Mommy and who's Daddy are all
yet-to-be-determined though. Awww, you're so lucky! I can't wait to get Goggie on Budoukai 3! I already have Jitto. OOH! Have
you done a Vejitto VS Gogeta battle in Practice and or Duel mode yet? This New Years Eve? It was good. I watched some movies,
ate special new-years finger-food, sweatdropped as everyone else in my house fell asleep early and had to wake people up to
watch the ball drop. That's what normally happens here New Years Eve. New Years DAY we all went to grandma's. The thursday
before, however, we all went out to a resturant to eat. The whole going-to-grandma's-on-holidays is something that's always
been, it's nice...but I would love to do something different on New Years Day for a change. Veggie's gonna love seeing his
planet back again (remembers how Veggie gushed at finding out it was still in existance even though it was in a thousand
pieces earlier last year). More Mistletoe in part 4! Glad you liked it! Also happy you liked the line. Veggie's mind is a
strange and entertaining place :)
To orchideater: I'm glad they cheer you up :) I'm so happy I kept Turles as a main character. Yup! (glomps Kaka-zilla,
Veggie, and Goku figurines) Ah, its oh-kay. I imagine Budoukai 3 would be hard if you hadn't played video games in a while.
There's lots of hit-the-button-at-precisely-the-right-time and twist-the-joystick-faster-than-the-computer-to-avoid-being-hit
in it. That he is :D Poor Mirai, heh. Thank you for the vote! I have no idea what I'm doing since it came out in a near-tie.
That is the tricky part with a girl. I general avoid adding original characters in because I'm just not confident with my
abilites to create original characters to begin with. Really other than my Veggie-clone, Veggie-bot, Veggie's mom, and
side-characters needed for particular plotlines (like the fashion designer in "Veggie-wear") I don't have anyone in my
list of characters who wasn't created by Akira Toriyama. If it does end up a boy, do you have any names you could suggest?
I remembered shortly after typing it that Vegeta Jr is the name of an actual character; Veggie's great great grandson in the
100-year-flashforward-to-the-future in the last gt episode. The "votes" came out in a tie so I have no idea what I'm doing.
IF I end up even including a 3rd fusion baby at all, it'll most likely be after fic 100 since fic 100 is completely planned
out already and the baby would probably mess up several plot-points. The fusion baby WOULD be a toddler though, like a 1 or 2
year old, not an adult like Vejitto and Gogeta; so it wouldn't be able to do much to begin with. Don't have to worry about
him or her suddenly becoming an adult anyway since my fics are in semi-realtime. I'm glad I managed to make her likeable.
I think GT Pan's problem was she lost nearly all of her Goku-genes somehow, or was overly-influenced by Chi-Chi. Actually a
Goggie-ish baby would make sense since there is no Gogeta in the main timeline. OOH! Furry lil baby ssj4! (grins) I must draw
that! (grabs clicky-pencil)
To mkh2: So glad you liked it! Yup! Goku's finally starting to rebel against some of the rules. Ssj4 is fun! I really wish
Toriyama hadn't forgotten Launch existed like that. In Budoukai 3 there's a scene where Veggie meets Launch and freaks out at
her sneezing. Oh! I found out she was in more than just that clip at the end, but Funi had her cut out from earlier saiyajin
saga eps since they figured no one would no who she is (since they didn't get to her in db yet at that time). Slurpees are
great! And Icees. I like them both :D Thank you for the vote! Yup it made sense.
To SupersayiankingTommy: Glad you like the idea. That sounds confusing. Yup, Bejito-sei is definitely being brought back. All those questions will be eventually answered, hopefully. Thanks for the opinion on the fusion-baby!
Chuquita: And thus ends the reviewer-replies!
Vegeta: (to Chu) You look dizzy.
Chuquita: (nervous laugh) My head is spinning from the unbelievably broad range of thoughts on the whole fusion-baby topic.
I may end up pushing his or her possible existance until AFTER fic 100. After all said fusion baby would mess up a few plot
points and I've been planning fic 100 for almost a year now so...
Goku: So it is still a possibility?
Chuquita: Still a possibility, just let me get through fic 100 first.
Goku: Hee— oh-kay!
Chuquita: Waaah— so dizzy! (shakes her head) (to audiance) See you sometime next week with Part 4, everybody!
Goku: Byebye!
