Quote of the Week: -from Budoukai 3
Roshi: Take cover! It's Chi-Chi!
Kuririn: (pales) This is not good!

Chuey's Corner:
Vegeta: Foreshadowing, eh?
Chuquita: Yup!
Goku: Welcome to Part 5!
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) This is only the 8th time ever we've had to get up this far.
Vegeta: Don't worry, it's better than an overwhelmingly large Part 4.
Chuquita: True. (nods) Oh! (points to quote) Since I've unlocked all the characters I'll use regularly in Budoukai 3, I've started off on a 2nd quest to unlock everybody else!
Vegeta: What about the Tournament modes and voice clips?
Chuquita: (grins) I'll unlock them afterwards. (to audiance) This chapter's quote is from Kuririn's DU. I did his last night because it, along with Brolli's DU, is not very long. (Each take about a half-hour to complete)
Vegeta: (chuckles) You don't even get past the Freeza saga.
Chuquita: Beating it unlocked Juuhachigou. If I go through it a second time I can unlock Juuhokugou and get through the Cell eps. No Buu ones though.
Vegeta: Kuririn didn't do that much during Buu.
Chuquita: No, he didn't. Oh! I heard Bardock was originally supposed to have a DU.
Goku: (happily) That would've been fun!
Vegeta: (smirks) Especially since they'd have to include Bejito-sei since he's never been to Earth.
Chuquita: I'd luv to fly around Bejito-sei in Budoukai 3! That's one really helpful thing about this game, since I've been playing the DU's, I've gotten a better understanding of where the different characters homes and cities are in distance from each other. I didn't know Goku's home was so close to the Kame house, the ocean in general, and a desert. I also didn't know West City was next to a beach, OR on the east coast for that matter. (I always thought it was on the west coast of that particular continent)
Vegeta: (whips out a pair of sunglasses) Heh-
Chuquita: It was warm yesterday. Today it's raining though. (Again).
Goku: Do not worry, it'll be sunny again...eventually...soon...I hope. (looks outside)
Chuquita: I saw the sun yesterday for the first time in a week. That's how long its been cloudy out.
Vegeta: Snow would be better.
Chuquita: (grins) Snow would be MUCH better!
Vegeta: (swaps his sunglasses for a scarf and earmuffs)
Goku: Aww- (pats Veggie's earmuffs) How fuzzy, Veggie!
Vegeta: (flushes red) Ah, hai.
Chuquita: And now, Part 5!

" ▫CRASH▫! " another bolt of lightning came down in the distance as the rain continued to heavily pour out over
West City.
This time both Gogeta and Vejitto G glanced over at the small window in the kitchen.
" I definately heard something that time. " Vejitto G's eyes widened.
" The thunder? Or what I heard be-fore? " Gogeta asked.
" The second one. "
" Maybe we should go check it out. " the dance fusion chirped, " Or at least sense around to see if there's anyone
outside. "
" Oh-kay! " Vejitto G set his controller down, " We could get lucky and it could turn out to be Bulma who felt guilty
about leaving us all a-lone so she decided to come back and spend Christmas with us after all! "
" Yeah! " Gogeta grinned, " I don't sense any overly-large ki. It could be her. " he said as they headed into the
kitchen.
Vejitto G paused, " But-- "
Gogeta looked back at him.
" --I don't think Bulma would surprise us. She'd call ahead to let us know she was coming. " a look of concern
covered the portara fusion's face.
" Hm.. " Gogeta folded his arms in thought, " Well, you would know better than I would. " he smiled, " At least in
this timeline anyway. "
The lights flickered above them.
" That's not good. " Gogeta sweatdropped.
" I better go save the game and shut the tv off. " Vejitto G headed back into the living room do to do so. He saved
their progress and shut the ps2 down, then reached for the tv remote control only to have the entire downstairs suddenly go
black.
" EEP! " the two fusions immediately formed balls of ki in their hands.
" So much for the tv. " Vejitto G dropped the remote back onto the counter.
" Maybe, maybe we should bring everybody back to Jitto's timeline til the storm's over, other Jitto. " Gogeta
suggested, then grinned, " At least there we could keep playing our game and we'll have more people around to talk to and
enjoy yummy snacks with! "
Vejitto G shifted around uneasily.
Gogeta blinked, " Jitto..? "
" Those lights didn't go out on their own. " Vejitto G narrowed his eyes the way Goku did in battle while he sensed
for any nearby ki's aside from those of the people who lived there.
" What do you mean? " Gogeta walked up to him, " Jitto...? "
Vejitto G hopped up onto the ledge by the living-room windows and opened one of them, then stuck his head and the
hand that contained the ball of ki in it, outside. The fusion shone the ki like a flashlight at the outside wall. He trailed
it along until he hit a small box built into the wall. It's door had been ripped open and the wires had been sliced into
tattered chunks of metal, " Gogeta. We've got to get everyone out of here. "

" For crying out loud! " Vegeta G snorted as he stomped down the stairs to the lab. He and his favorite peasant were
just getting to the peak of comfort and purely-platonic enjoyment when the lights had gone out. Goku G had panicked and
begged Vegeta to go fix the fuse-box.
And so, that's why he was currently in the lab using a small ball of ki to allow him to see what he was doing. Vegeta
quickly fixed the fuse box--and mentally thanked Bulma that she had taught him how several months ago before she left on her
business trip--and turned the lights back on.
Vegeta sighed in relief that he'd accomplished this small feat and turned around to head back up the stairs only to
let out a yelp.
There, pinned to the wall by a hypodermic needle, was a decapitated plushie head in his likeness. The plushie head
was pinned right in the middle of his forehead.
" Oh GOD... " Vegeta G whinced and pulled the needle out. He held the plushie head in his hand and looked at it for
a moment only to recognize what it went to a second later.
" AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!! " a shriek was heard from upstairs. Vegeta dropped the needle and ran back up carrying the
plushie head in his hand. He closed the lab door behind him and rushed up to the 2nd floor, made a swift turn to his left
and headed down two doors until he hit Bura's room. The fusions were inside looking for something while Bura stood there in
terror at the sight on the floor.
" Bura?! "
The chibi picked up one of the objects on the floor and nearly bawled, " SOMEONE KILLED MY TOUSSAN PLUSHIE! " she
held the headless saiyajin toy up. It wore a small, plushie-sized version of Vegeta's training uniform and royal saiyajin
armor complete with red cape, " AND THEY STOLE ALL OF KAKARROUJO'S DRESSES! " Bura G held out her small Goku-plushie, who was
now naked with the exception of his boxers, " Kakarroujo-plushie doesn't even OWN boxers! "
" We're looking for Toussan-plushie's head, Toussan. " Gogeta explained, picking a shirt up off the floor. He
frowned, " No. "
Vegeta G shifted around, disturbed at this, " Well, I can at least solve one of those mysteries. " he held out the
head with the a semi-large hole still visible in its forehead from the needle.
" GASP! Toussan-plushie's head! " Bura G quickly grabbed it from him.
" I saw it when I went down into the lab. Someone pinned the head to the wall with one of Bulma's hypodermic
needles. " Vegeta G explained while Bura frantically tried to put the plushie's head and body back together, " Bura you might
want to keep your plushies on you until this is over unless whoever decapitated "me" decides to come back and slaughter the
rest of the body as well. "
Bura G grabbed a nearby plastic baggy and dumped the two plushies inside. She zipped it shut and held it tightly.
" I'm going to check on Kakarrotto. Bura I want you to come with me. Vejitto, Gogeta, go find Raditsu and the boys
and then meet us at my room. We'll all be safer if we're together and in a closed area. " the ouji plotted things out.
" Way to take-charge, Toussan! " Gogeta pumped his fist in the air.
" Heh. " Vegeta G smirked proudly, then got a more serious expression on his face, " Now let's move. "

" Errr....it's so COLD! " Chi-Chi spat as she plodded along across the snowy Mount Paozu. The woman glanced over at
the little orange cloud floating beside her, " And you're sure I'm not still too deep in a state of "non-pure thoughts" to
be able to ride you right now, right? "
" ....! .... .. ....! " Kinto'un responded.
" Yeah, I guess you're right. " she sighed sadly as they walked past two snowmen, " ..snowmen?! Out here?! " Chi-Chi
stopped in mid-step and turned to her right to see two snow-Veggies standing there grinning. Together they held up a sign
that read "THIS WAY, ONNA" with a large red arrow pointing off in the direction she and Kinto'un were headed, " TWO of them!?
Now why would there be TWO? "
" .. ...... ...? " the orange cloud said.
" Two Oujis... " she thought back to when she had entered Capsule Corp about a week ago and Vegeta and teleported
back and forth at a speed she'd never seen before, " NO...he couldn't have...it was probably just that after-image technique
or something. " she brushed it away, then moved slightly to her left and continued to walk on.
" ... "▫
" ... "▫
" YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH! " Chi-Chi came running back and pulled a roundhouse kick on the first
snow-Veggie's head, then lobbed the second one's off with a swing from her arm.
" ... .... ...... ............?! " Kinto'un facefaulted.
" No, it wasn't really necessary, I just needed to take out some of my pent-up frustration and its healthier if I
take it out on inanimate objects rather than people, that's all. " Chi-Chi nodded, feeling a little less upset than she had
a moment ago. She looked Kinto'un over, then hopped on, " Hup! Hey! Check it out! I'm not falling through now! "
" ? " Kinto'un blinked.
" Well, oh-kay, so I'm still sort of sunk halfway into you but at least I can sit you now. " she laughed nervously,
then grinned with determination, " This'll easily cut our travel time in half! Come on Kinto'un! Let's go to Capsule Corp!
We may even make it intime for lunch! "
" ... .....! " Kinto'un said happily and blasted off into the air.

Vegeta took a deep breath, then proudly marched down the stairs towards the living room.
Bulma smiled as she looked up at him from the couch, " Well, someone looks like himself again. "
" I just had to do a little mental and bodily cleaning, that's all. " the ouji nodded as he sat down beside her,
" So? How's Kakarrotto? "
" ▫PURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr▫ " a warm content noise came from another couch across the room;
the one Vegeta had dropped Goku off at.
The ouji flushed red in the cheeks and paled at the same time.
Bulma laughed nervously, " You're wise to sit here. He's been doing that since you left him there almost an hour
ago. "
" He sounds like Scratch over a loudspeaker. " Bunni blinked at the couch Goku was on, the saiyajin himself out of
their visual range.
Scratch looked over at her from the armrest of the sofa and sweatdropped.
" Well, I did hug Kakarrotto of my own volition and will. " Vegeta folded his arms uneasily and nodded.
" Now why would you do that? " Bulma gawked.
" I, was a little blindsided by his Christmas present to me. "
" ...which was? "
" He used the dragon balls to wish Bejito-sei back into one piece. "
" WHAT?! " Kuririn gasped.
" REALLY? " Raditsu grinned, " WOW! Go ototochan! This is great! "
" Isn't it just! " Vegeta grinned even wider than Raditsu and his tail wagged back and forth with excitement.
" I'm so glad I made you happy, Veggie. "
" ?! " Vegeta froze in place and glanced to his left to see Goku sitting there smiling at him, " Ah-- " he shifted
around uneasily.
" Such a touching scene. " a simliar voice came form the right side of Vegeta.
The ouji turned and nearly fell over to see Turles sitting there, Bulma to the right of him.
" Oi Vegeta-san. I wish you luck and pleasure on your interplanetary picnic with Kakarrotto tommorow. " the evil
type-3 saiyajin smirked.
" Hn.. " a vein bulged on Vegeta's forehead.
" What pic--OH! You mean you're still taking him, even after the wish? " Bulma asked, surprised.
" Why not? The fact that my homeplanet's been restored to its rightful form is all the more reason to go. " the ouji
tried to keep from bursting into an all-out kaka-ish grin as he folded his arms.
" Hai, I'm sure you'll enjoy the trip. " Turles nodded, then looked over at Goku and grinned wickedly, " All alone
with "Veggie", you know. "
" Heehee- " Goku beamed.
" Don't encourage him! " Vegeta sweatdropped.
" I can't help it. " he snickered in reply, then whipped out a present, " Here Kakarrotto. A little snack for your
trip tommorow. "
" Oooh! " Goku took the package and sniffed it, " Pastries? "
" You win. "
" Hooray! I win! " the large saiyajin pumped his fist in the air, " O! Can I open my gift now? "
" Why not? After all it is Christmas. " Turles said.
Goku ripped the wrapping paper off and lifted up the top of the cover to reveal, " CUPCAKES! " he picked one of the
green and red iced chocolate cupcakes out of the box, " And they are covered in mounds of delicious frosting! " Goku held
one out, about to eat it.
" HEY! WAITAMINUTE! " Vegeta grabbed Goku's arm with one hand and the box of cupcakes with the other.
" Veggie? "
" Why would YOU be giving Kakarrotto, or anyone for that matter, a kind and thoughtful gift when it's against your
basic nature to do so? " the ouji asked Turles suspiciously.
" The spirit of the season? " Turles grinned cheesily.
" ... " Vegeta narrowed his eyes, then took a strong whiff of the cupcake in Goku's hand only to have everything
suddenly go dizzy before him, " WHOA! " a huge blushline appeared over Vegeta's noise and he grabbed a tight hold on the couch
to keep himself from falling over or succumbing to the mushy daze that was now floating through his head.
" By the way, there's some mistletoe juice mixed into the icing. "
Vegeta quickly shook his head clear, though the blushline still remained, " NOW you tell us?! Were you even going
to mention it at all or just wait until we're halfway to Bejito-sei and Kakarrotto eats the entire box thus going into some
sort of dominating kaka-heat! "
" I don't feel very warm right now Veggie. It's actually kinda cold in here. " Goku looked around the room.
" And where would you find mistletoe juice in the first place?! " Vegeta continued his rant with partial franticness
in his voice.
" I have my sources.. " Turles said mysteriously.
" You would be dangerous with "sources". "
" I know! " a malicious grin appeared on his face.
" ▫WHEW▫! " Vejitto jogged into the living room, sweaty and without his gi top, " That was fun! Toussan, Mommy?
Wanna spar with me? "
" Sure Ji-chan! " Goku said.
" Kakarrotto brought back our homeplanet into its original shape and form! " Vegeta piped up again, eager to let out
the news again to anyone nearby.
" GASP! WOW Toussan! That is the best Christmas present EVER! " Vejitto teleported over to the couch.
" Isn't it! " Vegeta almost gushed again, then glanced over to his right to see Turles casually heading off into
the other hallway, " Going somewhere? " he asked flatly.
" Oh, no place special. I just have a few errends to run. " Turles grinned and continued on.
" Errends...hmmph. " Vegeta snorted, " He's plotting something. "
" He's always "plotting" something. That's what he's been doing ever since he came to Earth! Plot! " Bulma exclaimed,
" Thankfully none of its harmful. "
" Yeah, to your health. I'm not so sure about mine. " the ouji muttered.
" Say Toussan, has Goggie gotten back yet? " Vejitto asked.
" No. " Goku pouted, " He said he'd be back for dinner, right? "
" Yeah...I'm just bored without Goggie around to aid me in random forms of entertainment, that's all. " the portara
fusion shrugged.
" Speaking of people who haven't shown up...where is Chi-chan? " Goku blinked, confused.
" ACK!? " Vegeta made a sudden choking sound.
" Veggie? Have you seen Chi-chan? " Goku glanced over at him.
" Umm, no? " Vegeta smiled.
Bulma sweatdropped.
" Oh. Well oh-kay then. " Goku nodded. He flopped back in his seat, " I didn't know Chi-chan was so far be-hind in
her present-shopping. Maybe I should go look for her-- "
" --NO! " Vegeta said suddenly.
Goku looked over at him with curiousity.
" No...because, Onna is probably shopping for gifts for you, Kakarrotto. You wouldn't want to teleport into the
local mall and find Onna holding an unwrapped present she bought for you. It would ruin the surprise for both of you, right?"
The large saiyajin thought for a moment, then smiled, " I guess Veggie's right. I don't want Chi-chan to be mad. "
" Of course you don't. No one wants that. " Vegeta patted him on the shoulder comfortingly, then looked away and
muttered, " Believe me. "
" Hm. " Goku smiled back at him, " Aw Veggie. "

" Oh Veggie-sama, you really think someone's broken into the house? " Goku G gasped as he, Vegeta G, and Bura sat on
the floor in Vegeta G's bedroom.
" Hai. " Vegeta G nodded seriously, then slightly perked up, " But I can easily defeat whoever this mystery person
may be, Kakarrotto. Don't worry. " he said warmly.
" Poor Kakarroujo-plushie, NOW what he wear to the ball? " Bura G lamented as she held the small Goku plushie out
infront of her.
" ▫Knock▫knock▫Knock▫ "
Goku G and Bura G froze.
Vegeta G got up and walked to the door, then sensed who was outside and smirked. He opened the door, " So, you've
found them all, eh? "
" Hee- " Gogeta grinned.
" Yup! Everyone's here! " Vejitto G said as he and Gogeta entered, followed by Raditsu G, Goten G, and Trunks G.
" OH! " the dance fusion said suddenly as Vegeta closed and locked the door behind them, " What about Mr. and Mrs.
Briefs? Bulma's parents? "
" They're out on a cruise actually. " Vegeta G explained, " Pets allowed so Scratch is with them. "
" But we still have to look after the other animals Dr. Briefs keeps in the observatory! " Goku G happily pointed
out, " At least until he gets back. "
" Well, I guess that rules out the possibility of it NOT being one of them. " Gogeta plopped down on the floor.
Downstairs a figure stood, staring up at the door to the saiyajins bedroom. The figure had a larger one set infront
of it, the smaller figure's head leaning onto the larger one's shoulder, " See? See what they've done to you, Go-chan? Well
they won't be doing it for much longer. " the figure smirked, then narrowed its eyes, " Curse him for bringing them all into
one room. I should've gone after you while HE was still down in the lab. No matter. Perhaps having them all in one spot can
somehow be to my advantage. Afterall, none of them have been barely able to sense me at all yet tonight. That's good. VERY
good. " the figure held against the larger one tightly and gave it a kiss on the cheek.
The figure whipped out the weapon from before, " Afterall, someone's gotta leave that room sometime. To go to the
bathroom, to check on the downstairs, maybe to even try to look for me? "

" Maybe we should try to go look for the burglar. " Gogeta thought outloud, " Or at least contact Jitto. "
Vejitto G waved his hand in the air from across the room.
" I meant MY Jitto... "
" But, I AM your Jitto-- "
" --oh yeah. Well, you know who I mean. The Jitto from the main timeline, the one I've been living with for the past
two years. " Gogeta said, whipping out his orangish-yellow cellphone and dialed the number. He contently sat back to listen.
" We're sorry, the number you have dialed is currently out of range. Please call again. "
" HUH!? " the dance fusion gawked, " Ohhh, that's not fair. "
" Maybe its cuz of the storm. " Goku G suggested.
" We can take out this guy without help from any of the other timelines, Gogeta. " Vegeta G nodded.
" There! " Bura held out her Goku plushie. She had made an outfit for him out of some nearby materials, " Oh
Kakarroujo you look so beautiful! You'll be the envy of everyone at the ball! "
Raditsu sweatdropped at her, " You worry me, kid. "
" I'm going to go out into the hallway and try to call Jitto from there. " the fusion got up.
" Are you sure you should really do that?! With that scary Veggie-plushie-head-chopping burglar out there! " Goku G
gasped.
" I'll be fine, Kaasan! " Gogeta laughed nervously, " I'm just going to be right outside the door, its not like I'm
leaving the general area. " he said as he grabbed the doorknob and left, " I'll be right back, oh-kay? "
The others looked at him with worried unease.
" Oh-kay! " Gogeta chirped and closed the door behind him. He quickly hit redial and grinned. This time the phone
was ringing.
" ▫Bring▫ ▫Bring▫ ▫Bri--▫click▫! Goggie? " Vejitto's voice said on the other end.
" HAHA! JITTO it IS you! " Gogeta beamed only to be hit from behind and knocked halfway down the hall. The phone
spilled out of his hand on the way there, " OOF! "
" Goggie? Goggie? " Vejitto's voice sounded faint coming out of the phone 10 or 11 feet away.
" Ohhhh. " Gogeta sat up and rubbed the sides of his head, " That hurt. " he looked up to see a figure before him.
" And there's going to be a lot more of that before we're through with you! "
Gogeta narrowed his eyes and went ssj, lighting up nearly the entire floor. He gasped in shock, " ONNA!? "
Chi-Chi G grinned distortedly at him. She wielded what could've easily been the largest carving knife Gogeta had ever
seen. She was still wearing her patient's uniform of a white top and dark aqua pants. Her hair was down, bags hung under her
eyes, and the life-sized Goku plushie Vegeta had given her was strapped to her back, his arms tied around her waist from
behind and chin leaning ontop of her left shoulder, " Any last words before you die? "
" Yeah, actually. " Gogeta smirked back at her, " Where'd you get such a ridiculously huge knife? " he grinned.
" WAHHHH! " Chi-Chi G nearly fell over. She snarled at him, " THAT'S NOT IMPORTANT! What IS important is that YOU
SUFFER for what you've done to my Go-chan! Twisting his mind to that evil Ouji's evil ways! IF YOU HADN'T BEEN CREATED GOKU
WOULD STILL BE WITH ME RIGHT NOW! "
" Well, technically that IS true---AAH! " Gogeta ducked as Chi-Chi G swung her knife at him. He skidded down the
hall and grabbed his cellphone, then lept down over the railing and into the living room, ::I have to draw her away from the
others
" Goggie? Hello are you there? "
" I'm here Jitto. " Gogeta replied as he dodged another of Chi-Chi G's swings.
" What happened to you? "
" Hey Jitto, remember that psychotic version of Onna we met in my timeline the other day? "
" Hai? "
Gogeta dodged a third and forth swing, causing Chi-Chi G to end up slicing the couch in two instead, " Turns out
she's homicidal as well! "
" WHAT?! GOGGIE DO SOMETHING! "
The dance fusion hopped ontop of the entertainment center, then backflipped over it as Chi-Chi G's knife sliced it,
along with the tv, in half.
" Umm, I don't think I'm allowed to kill Onna, Jitto. " Gogeta dodged yet another attack, " ...am I? "
" No! " Vejitto sweatdropped.
" What if I just knock her out then? "
" That'll work! " the portara fusion perked up.
" Heh. Alright then. " Gogeta put his cellphone away and turned to face Chi-Chi G only to be smacked through the
lab door and down the stairs by the side of the knife like a baseball, " AARG! " he hit the floor, " When and HOW did Onna
get so strong?! " Gogeta blinked in disbelief, then stood up at the bottom of the stairs, Chi-Chi G at the top. He smirked
wryly, " Heh, fitting piece of irony. This is where it all began. "
" Yup, everything's comin full-circle now, demi-Ouji. " she grinned wickedly and held out the knife, " Prepare to
find out just what happens when you make my Go-chan break the rules! YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH! " and with that she launched
herself down at him, the tip of her knife gleaming under dulled laboratory lights.

" Mmmmm... " the large, warm lump sighed, content.
" ... " Vegeta shifted around. The majority of the guests had moved into the kitchen to eat. Goten and Trunks were
playing nearby the tree with some of their new toys that they had unwrapped earlier as Gotenks. Goku was still seated next
to him, only now he was actually leaning against the little ouji while they watched the snow fall outside.
" Tommorow's gonna be the best day EVER! " Goku beamed, " Just me 'n Veggie in Veggie's lil Capsule 3 ship spending
quality time together and not having to worry about anybody interupting our fun and I can't WAIT to see what the sunrises on
Bejito-sei are like! "
Vegeta tried his best to keep from having his face completely turn bright red, " Ah..t--that's nice, Kakarrotto. "
" Veggie's nice... "
The ouji bolted off of the couch, causing Goku to fall over onto his side, " HEY! Kakarrotto how about we go for a
quick match in the gravity room, huh? You know, to clear your head, help you relax, stall any mushy thoughts from
interweaving themselves into your mind and causing you to develop non-platonic feelings and desires. "
" Oh-kay Veggie! " Goku perked up again and followed Vegeta down the hallway. He watched the little ouji make his way
to the gravity room door and smiled, " Veggie makes me so happy. "
" Well? "
" Hm? " Goku snapped back to attention.
" Kakarrotto are you coming in or not? " Vegeta asked, suddenly inside the room with his head peaking out the open
doorway.
Goku blinked and rubbed his eyes, somehow completely missing the past three or four seconds, " Coming Veggie! " he
said cheerfully, then froze halfway there and looked upward. It was that eerie, foreboding feeling again. This time it felt
nearly disasterous. The large saiyajin attempted to shake it off and quickly grabbed Vegeta's hand tightly, " Veggie... "
he stared at the smaller saiyajin intently.
" Ah, hahaha, yes. "Veggie". That's me. " Vegeta nervously yanked his gloved hand out of Goku's tight, warm grasp
and walked over to the gravity machine, " Kakarrotto could you get the door for me? "
" Sure! " Goku did so. He looked up to see the sparring bots hovering near the ceiling, ::Hm, that is strange.
Veggie doesn't really use THOSE anymore. I wonder why he would--:: he paused in mid-thought when he noticed something. Goku
laughed, " Oh Veggie you are so sneaky! "
Vegeta looked up from the machine and cocked an eyebrow, " I am? "
" Very much so, little Veggie! " Goku chimed in.
" Oh?....OH! Yes, of course I am. " he boasted while still not completely sure what Goku was talking about. Vegeta
turned the machine on.
" Welcome to the Gravity Room. Please make your selection. " the machine said.
The ouji cracked his knuckles and smirked, " Hey Kakarrotto, how about we go for a real challange? 600x the planet's
natural gravity! "
" Oh-kay! " Goku burst into ssj2, " If Veggie thinks he can take it! "
" OF COURSE I CAN TAKE IT! " the ouji snapped, " Just because I happen to be more..petite, than you are doesn't mean
I can't take the same amount of bodily stress as you. " Vegeta went ssj2 as well and turned back to the machine. He imput
600x into the computer.
" Gravitational level accepted. Initiating 600x earth's gravity, now. " everything in the room instantly became
overwhelmingly heavy.
" ▫WHEW▫! " Vegeta let out a large pant as he continued to face the machine. 600x was uncomfortable even at ssj2,
::Perhaps this was a mistake:: he grimaced, then looked over his shoulder to see Goku contently jogging in place as if he
hadn't even turned the machine on, ::ARGH! Why must he continue to defy the laws of time and space by out-powering me by his
endless amount of kaka-strength!:: the ouji twitched, ::Oh well, no going back now. If I turn it back down to 550x it would
be seen as an act of ukedom--not to mention Kakarrotto would notice the shift in gravity and start to worry about me::
Goku performed several warm-up stretches, then assumed a fighting position, " Ready Veggie? "
The ouji took a deep breath and turned to face Goku, then got into his own fighting position, " Ready. "
" HAAAAAAA! "
" HAAAAAAA! " they launched at one another, arms colliding. Vegeta swung his right leg upward and hit Goku in the
chest, knocking him into the wall.
Goku peformed a backflip and bounced back off only to disappear and reappear behind Vegeta. He grabbed the ouji
around the waist from behind.
Vegeta let out a small yelp and let loose mulitple ki blasts at Goku's head, the larger saiyajin dodging about half
of them. He dropped Vegeta and once the ouji hit the floor he swung his leg out from under him, tripping Goku who on his way
down sent a ki blast at the ouji, knocking him off-balance and onto the floor.
The two saiyajin lay there on their sides for a moment. Watching each other as they slowly got up. Vegeta hovered
upwards and flew back at Goku again, this time with his fist outward.
" YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! " the ouji screamed only to freeze in mid-flight when something warm, soft and wet touched
his forehead, " ... "
Goku grabbed Vegeta's still outstretched fist and spun the ouji over his head.
Vegeta shook off the strange feeling and grabbed Goku by the shoulders as he fell. He kneed Goku's upper body three
or four times before Goku's knees came up to block them. The larger saiyajin grabbed onto the ouji's shoulders for support.
Vegeta smirked, feeling a vague deja vu from his majin battle against Goku, " Heh-heh-heh... "
" ▫Smooch▫! "
" HUH!? " the ouji froze again. That warm, soft, and wet object had just touched him again, this time on the cheek.
" Hee- " Goku grinned at him, then paused at the expression on the little ouji's face.
Vegeta's eyes had widened to 5 times their normal size in shock and confusion. A light red flush ran across his
entire face, " ...Kakarrotto? " the ouji said, his voice sounding lost.
" Yes Veggie? " Goku tilted his head.
" Why are you smooching me in the middle of our spar? " Vegeta choked out, too bewildered and frightened to hear the
answer.
Goku took one hand off the ouji's shoulder and pointed to the ceiling with a smile.
Vegeta looked up to see all his sparring bots hovering above them in random places near the ceiling, each bot covered
from head to toe in mistletoe. Vegeta's paranoid fear left him, replaced by a twitching annoyance.
" That was so clever of you to decorate the gravity room like that, little Veggie! " Goku grinned.
Vegeta whipped out the peasant repel and sprayed his cheek and forehead, " I didn't, Kakarrotto. " he said flatly.
" Oh. " Goku said, just has cheerful as before. His face went blank, " Then, how did they-- "
" --take a wild guess. " the ouji said, glaring across the room at the non-existant evil type 3 saiyajin.
" Umm....Turles? "
" Yes Kakarrotto, Turles. " Vegeta replied, then raised one hand and fired a ki blast at one of the bots, frying the
mistletoe off it. The remains of the plant fell to the ground with a thunk under the heavy gravity while the bot itself
remained intact.
" Poor little mistletoe. " Goku sweatdropped as he walked up to the plant as smoke rose up off it. He leaned over to
sniff only to have Vegeta slap his hand over Goku's nose and mouth.
" WHAT ARE YOU THINKING?! Don't SNIFF it! It's dangerous to do that! " Vegeta warned him, then walked back to the
machine and shut it off, " I'm going to find Turles! Care to come with me to aid in some more revenge? "
" MORE revenge? " Goku looked baffled.
" OOP! " this time Vegeta slapped his hands over his own mouth, ::ACK! That's right! Kakarrotto doesn't know about
my act of vengence upon Onna!:: " Ah, nothing? " he smiled weakly.
" Oh-kay Veggie! I believe you! " Goku nodded, then grabbed some of the mistletoe off the other sparring bots.
" What are you doing? "
" I'm getting all the mistletoe off them. When we find Turles we should give him back his plants, right? " Goku
blinked.
A small vein bulged on Vegeta's forehead, " Kakarrotto, this is revenge! It's not a friendly mission! "
" Oh. " he replied, then glanced around, " Well, can I keep the little mistletoe plants then? " Goku grinned.
Vegeta groaned, " Fine. "
" YAY! "

" ▫THUNK▫! " the knife slammed deep into the floor.
Gogeta stared nervously ahead. The tip of the weapon mere inches away from his crotch, " Was that really necessary? "
" SHUT UP AND DIE, HOMEWRECKER! " Chi-Chi G yanked the knife out of the floorboards and swung it at him again. Gogeta
leaned his head back to dodge and kicked Chi-Chi G up into the air. He scrambled to his feet and ran deeper into the lab.
" Oh man! This version of Onna's CRAZY! " he gawked in disbelief, then noticed a nearby invention and grinned,
" The time machine! HAHA! " the dance fusion skidded to a halt before it and hopped inside, " Well looks like you're going
to save me for the 2nd time in a row, huh? " Gogeta grinned.
" NOT THIS TIME! " Chi-Chi G lept up from behind him swung her knife down, slicing, " HA! I'VE GOT YOU! "
" Really? "
Chi-Chi G looked up to see Gogeta standing beside her, grinning Son-style, " Uh... " she turned to see she had sliced
the driver's seat instead, " OOH! WHY YOU! " she swung at him again. Gogeta cheerfully dodged and they both froze when her
knife hit the control panel, setting off sparks. Chi-Chi G paled.
" Uh-oh. " Gogeta tilted his head as he hovered upside-down, " That's not good. "
With a flash of light the time machine disappeared.

And reappeared in the lab.
Chi-Chi G looked around cautiously. The lab looked exactly the same only less dusty and with the lights turned on.
" HI BULMA! " Gogeta G waved happily.
Bulma looked up from her food-replication machine as the third pizza roll popped into existance on the platter,
" Huh? Gogeta? What are you doing back so soon? " she said, surprised.
" You should leave now! It's not safe here! " the fusion nodded to her.
" Not-- "
" DIE! " a huge knife appeared beside Gogeta, missing the dance fusion by inches.
Chi-Chi G snarled at him.
Bulma stared at the sight, bug-eyed.
" HUP! " Gogeta hopped out of the machine and dashed up the stairs, " This could turn out to help me after all!
With Jitto here I could catch the evilier version of Onna easy! " he grinned.
" HAAAAAAAAAAAA! " Chi-Chi G swung her knife sideways, " HA! "EASY", huh? "
" ▫Squeak▫ " the upper body of her victim hit the floor of the step to reveal...a Gogeta plushie.
" WHAT?! You gotta be kidding me he was right-- " she noticed a speck of white pants out of the corner of her eye
dash out of the doorway, " COME BACK HERE, DEMI-OUJI! I'LL GIVE YOU A CHRISTMAS PRESENT! "

" Hey look Kinto'un! We're almost there! " Chi-Chi said happily as she pointed over the horizon. They were at the
edge of West City, " And it's only... " she looked at her watch, " 2pm! This is great! "
" Well said, my little cloud-friend! " she patted him, " Now ONWARD! "
" ▫FWOOOSH▫! " Kinto'un flew faster as it headed down towards Capsule Corp. The cloud landed just above the front
lawn and Chi-Chi hopped off, grinning in satisfaction. Her grin then disappeared only to be replaced by a blank stare.
" Ohhhhhh. Flying around like that for an hour cooled me off--my anger's gone! " she realized, folding her arms in
frustration, " Stupid Ouji! Now what'll I do! "
" No, I don't WANT to be mad, I'm just saying that its easier for me to tell him off when I'm already upset. "
Chi-Chi explained, " Hn...maybe I should downplay his entire little "snow-Chi-Chi-into-her-own-house" scheme...or claim that
it never existed and I was late due to a non-ouji-related reason. OR I could go straight to Goku-san instead and tell him
about what the Ouji's done. Hey! Maybe I could snow him i---- " she took one look at the size of the building before her and
sweatdropped, " --no, that wouldn't work. " Chi-Chi then narrowed her eyes, " Either way I'm going to teach that Ouji a
lesson for what he's done! Making me miss half of Christmas! " she then smirked, " He'll pay for this! He WILL pay--▫POW▫! "
The door swung open and smacked her, launching Chi-Chi four or five feet away to the left.
" Oww. "
" YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! "
" ▫Swish▫swish▫ "
" ▫Swish▫swish▫ "
" Wow Goggie, you were right this is kinda hard. " Vejitto commented as he and Gogeta dodged Chi-Chi G's attacks
on the front lawn.
" DIE YOU MISERABLE SACKS OF HALF-OUJI'D FLESH! "
" Eh? " Chi-Chi sat up, now slightly dizzy. She rubbed the side of her head only to have Kinto'un tug on her jacket's
sleeve, " Yes? "
" ....! ..! " Kinto'un pointed off across the lawn.
Chi-Chi looked over to see someone who looked like her wearing a West City Sanitarium patient's garb with a large,
life-sized Goku-plushie attached to her back and swinging the biggest knife Chi-Chi had ever seen at Vejitto and Gogeta, who
seemed to be dodging her attacks with ease, " ... " Chi-Chi's jaw hung open.
" AAAAAAAAAAAH! " Chi-Chi G rushed Vejitto, who swung his body to the side and then spun around behind her, yanking
the Goku plushie off her back, " GO-CHAN! " she gasped.
" Heeheehee- " Vejitto tilted the life-sized plushie back and forth teasingly.
Chi-Chi G's eyes practically went red, " YOU GIVE HIM BACK RIGHT NOW!! " she ran at him.
Vejitto smirked and teleported out just as she swung her knife. Chi-Chi G froze when she saw only the plushie infront
of her and the knife slice its head off.
The Goku plushie fell to the ground in two pieces. Chi-Chi G fell to her knees.
" G--Go-chan... " she choked out, reaching out to him. She gently picked the plushie up and held the two pieces
against her, " No...no..it--IT CAN'T BE NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! " Chi-Chi G wailed, " I'VE SLAUGHTERED MY ONLY LOVE! "
" There there Onna, it'll be oh-kay! " Gogeta chirped, coming up from behind her.
Chi-Chi G snarled at him, " SHUT UP YOU-- "
" --SNAP▫SNAP▫! " instantly the dance fusion had snapped a straightjacket around her.
" There! " Gogeta picked her up under his arm.
Vejitto picked up the halves of the Goku plushie, " Come on Goggie, let's go contact your timeline's Mommy and get
Chi-Chi sent back home! "
" That is a good plan to me, Jitto! " Gogeta said happily and with that they re-entered Capsule Corp.
Chi-Chi and Kinto'un stood there, stunned, " ... "
Vegeta poked his head out the front door and cocked an eyebrow, " Onna? "
Chi-Chi looked over at him, " I want to apologize for tricking you into thinking you were pregnant. " she said in
a terrified, faraway voice.
" REALLY? " Vegeta grinned excitedly, " GREAT! Wait right here! I'll be back in a second! "
" Huh? " she blinked as the small saiyajin zipped back inside.
Goku poked his head into view, " HI Chi-chan! You finally made it! And just intime for a late lunch! " he said
happily.
" Haha..ha.. " Chi-Chi laughed lightly, her nerves still shot.
The little ouji quickly zipped back to the doorway, this time with a portable tape-recorder in hand, " Here! Speak
into the mic. " Vegeta smiled cheesily as he held a microphone up to her face.
A small vein bulged on Chi-Chi's forehead and she stared at him lamely.
" Go ahead Onna, don't be shy! " his tail was wagging excitedly by now.
" ...▫FWIP▫! " Chi-Chi whipped out a piece of paper and handed it to Vegeta, then rolled her eyes and went inside.
The ouji opened the paper and frowned, " A WRITTEN apology!? Awww, Onna that's cheating! " Vegeta looked down at it
again and pouted stubbornly, " Now I only feel partially healed. "
Goku looked over at the little ouji, then gave him a hug, " Mmm..does that help, Veggie? "
" Slightly. " Vegeta murmured, starting to flush read in the face.
The larger saiyajin let go of him, " Well I think it was NICE of Chi-chan to say she was sorry for causing poor
little Veggie e-motional trauma. "
Chi-Chi sat down on the sofa, " I wasn't TRYING to cause him "emotional trauma"! I just wanted to trick him, not send
his twisted ouji-mind into a mental breakdown! " she exclaimed.
" Your little trot through the snow must've done some good if it could cause you to so easily surrender, Onna. "
Vegeta smirked, putting his tape-recorder away.
" I'm not surrendering. I'm merely acknowledging a mistake in my previous judgement, Ouji. " she folded her arms.
" Uh-huh. " Vegeta tossed his microphone up into the air and caught it again.
" Also, I don't want to end up like her. " Chi-Chi motioned to her counterpart in the kitchen whom the fusions had
strapped to a chair while in her straightjacket while Gogeta called his timeline's Vegeta on the cellphone.
" YOU'LL DIE FOR THIS, OUJI! DO YOU HEAR ME! WHEN I'M FINISHED WITH YOU THERE WON'T EVEN BE A CORPSE LEFT TO PUT
IN THE COFFIN! YOU'LL SUFFER A FATE OF UNIMAGINABLE AGONY! YOUR WISHED-IMMORTAL SOUL TRAPPED WITHIN A TORRENT OF PAIN
FOREVER!!! " Chi-Chi G screamed at him.
" Have a fish and cool down. " Vejitto stuck a semi-large fish in her mouth, muffling her death-threats.
" MMMPAH MMPH!!! "
" Actually you almost did end up like her at one point. " Vegeta pointed out.
" Don't remind me. I refuse to discuss it. " she bluntly replied.
" ... "▫
" ... "▫
" So? What time in the possible-future is SHE from? "
" Oh, she's not. That Onna's from Gogeta's timeline. " the ouji said casually.
" Gogeta's...OHH! ▫WHEW▫! " Chi-Chi let out a humongous sigh of relief, " Haha, oh wow, you really had me worried
there for a second, Ouji. "
" You mean Chi-chan only a-pologized to Veggie because she's afraid of losing her sanity like Goggie's Chi-chan has?"
Goku asked, surprised.
" Of course! You don't think I'd simply apologize to him out of the kindness of my heart do you? "
" What kindness? " Vegeta cocked an eyebrow.
" It'd only serve to inflate his ego even more than it has already! " Chi-Chi continued, then glared at him out of
the corner of her eye, " I heard that. "
" Heh— " Vegeta grinned wickedly, " Well anyway, Merry Christmas Onna. " he started off out of the room, " Come
Kakarrotto. We have a type-3 saiyajin to find. "
" Haha! Coming Veggie! " Goku happily followed him down the hall.
Chi-Chi sat there for a moment, then got up, " Hey wait! "
" Yes? " Vegeta smirked.
" What KIND of alternate timeline are we talking about where I, one of the sanest people I know, would end up in a
mental hospital! " she demanded.
" Oh, its an magical timeline filled with awe and wonder! " the smaller saiyajin clasped his hands together, " In
Gogeta's timeline, Kakarrotto has become my platonic room-mate who treats me with a non-overwhelming amount of
platonic-affection while I protect and serve him in the rightful position of SEME! Meanwhile, you lose your mind in an asylum
and both Turles and Brolli cease to exist--thus leaving my title unchallanged. "
Chi-Chi paled at the thought, shocked.
" Oh! And Uncle Raditsu lives at Capsule Corp in my timeline too! And other Jitto a-grees with me on who should
be Toussan and who should be Kaasan! " Gogeta chriped.
" I know! " Vegeta beamed, " It's like my very own personally-sculpted DREAM-timeline! "
" Yes, but you don't live in it, do you? " she scoffed, smirking back at him.
The little ouji hung his head, " No. " he said sadly.
" Awwww... " Goku hugged Vegeta tightly from behind.
The ouji froze, " ... " he slowly pulled himself free and turned to face Goku, then moved the larger saiyajin's
arms back to where they were, " There. That's better. No hugging from behind Kakarrotto I can't see a thing back there and
it gives me the frightening feeling of being engulfed by you. " Vegeta laughed nervously.
" I luv u too, Veggie! " Goku said warmly.
This time Vegeta's face turned bright red. He shook it off and cleared his throat, " H--hai. That's, nice. "
" Mmmmmmm.... " the larger saiyajin sighed, then started to purr again.
The redness returned to Vegeta's face and his body started to go numb as the sound of purring clouded all other
noise around them. So much infact that he didn't even hear the sound of a small cut circle of the ceiling creak over sideways
and for something to pop out of it. More circles began to copy the first while Chi-Chi watched in confusion. She finally
realized what was going on and chuckled lightly.
" ▫FLASH▫!! " a blast of bright light exploded from the kitchen, then dimmed to reveal a small figure sitting in the
driver's seat.
" Vejitto, Gogeta, hello! "
" Goggie's Mommy! "
" Toussan! " they both cheered at once.
" Goggie's Mommy! Goggie and I beat the other Chi-Chi all by ourselves! " Vejitto boasted.
" Aren't you proud of us? " Gogeta gushed.
" Very much so. " Vegeta G said as he hopped out of the time machine.
Vejitto stared at it for a moment, confused.
" It's a spare. Bulma made it. "
" OH! " he ohh'd, enlightened.
Vegeta G looked the straightjacked, fish-muffled Chi-Chi and nodded, " Excellent work, my sons. You've done well. "
" Now, back the hospital with you Onna! " Vegeta G picked her up and thumped her in the spot behind the seat. He
glanced over at Gogeta, " ... "
" Coming? "
" ... "▫
Gogeta stared at him for a moment, then looked back over at Vejitto, who tilted his head at him and smiled sadly.
Gogeta grabbed the portara fusion's hand and grinned, " Give my re-gards to other Jitto, Toussan! " he said happily.
" Alright then. " Vegeta got inside.
" HOORAY! " Vejitto cheered, pumping his fists in the air, " WE WIN! I missed you, Goggie! " he glomped Gogeta
tightly.
" Hee—— "
" I'm glad you're staying here, Goggie! Everything's so boring without you! " the portara fusion let go.
" Well, I guess I'll be going now. " Vegeta G said thoughtfully. He whipped out a small piece of paper and tossed it
to Vegeta, " If your timeline's Onna is ever in need of any...psychological treatment or desides to suddenly goes homicidal,
give this number a call. " he said cheerfully.
" West City Sanitarium. " the ouji read outloud, still a little dizzy from his current position.
Chi-Chi plucked the piece of paper out of Vegeta's hands and wripped it into several pieces, " I seriously doubt
he'll be needing that. "
" Ah heh-heh-heh-heh. Sure, Onna. " Vegeta G smirked, then closed the top to the time machine and waved as it lifted
up off the ground.
" I don't like that smirk on his face. " Chi-Chi narrowed her eyes.
" Merry Christmas, everyone! See you around, son! " Vegeta G said.
" MERRY CHRISTMAS TOUSSAN! " Gogeta waved back, " JITTO AND I WILL COME VISIT! "
A bright light engulfed the room and the time machine disappeared.
The group opened their eyes again and readjusted them to the light.
" Aw, Toussan's gone. " Gogeta frowned.
" Good riddence. " Chi-Chi sighed, " THAT particular Ouji needs his ego kicked down a notch anyway. "
" No he doesn't. I happen to think his ego is very lucky indeed. "
She looked over to see Vegeta still being held by the larger saiyajin in the hallway, " YOU, however... "
" ? " the ouji blinked, confused. He looked up to see the entire ceiling was suddenly littered with scattered lumps
of mistletoe, one of which hanging directly above him and the saiyajin hugging him. Vegeta paled, " Ah-- "
" Mistletoes— " Goku said happily with his lips puckered up.
" HUH!? "
" ▫SMOOCH▫SMOOCH▫ "
A blast of red light exploded from the hallway, " WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH! " the ouji yelped, his brain falling
into a daze.
" That's 10! "
Chi-Chi looked over to see Turles sitting there checking off marks on a notepad.
He smirked at her, " I'm keeping count. "
Chi-Chi sweatdropped.
" ▫SMOOCH▫SMOOCH▫SMOOCH▫ "
" Only about 12 or so more to go! " Turles grinned.
" Come on Goggie! Let's go have a snack! " Vejitto said, heading off into the kitchen, " Bunni made FISH! "
" I do enjoy FISH, Jitto! " Gogeta cheerfully followed him inside.
" ▫SMOOCH▫SMOOCH▫! "
" Aren't you going to stop him? " Turles asked Chi-Chi, tilting his head slightly.
" No. Maybe I'll get lucky and a few of Goku's germs'll get inside the Ouji and numb his twisted little mind down
into that non-dangerous area. Now THAT would be a Christmas present. " she nodded, " Anyway, you saw that other me. "
" I heard her. "
" And if I've learned anything, getting TOO upset over the Ouji only ends up being self-destructive to me. " Chi-Chi
said, " It looks like Goku-san's got everything under control over there anyway. " she started to head into the kitchen as
well.
" Heh-heh, he DOES adore Vegeta-san. "
" Platonically. "
" ... "▫
" RIGHT? " Chi-Chi narrowed her eyes at the evil type-3 saiyajin.
Turles snickered for a moment, then burst into laughter, " BWAHAHAHA! "
Chi-Chi's eyes widened.
" "Platonically". Heh-heh, sure.. "
Chi-Chi turned uneasily and went into the kitchen.
" And, ▫SMOOCH▫! There! " Goku held a dazed and semi-consious Vegeta out infront of him, " Merry Christmas little
Veggie! " he beamed, " And now for lunch! " he pumped his fist in the air and carried the ouji off to meet the others. Goku
paused in the hallway. He set Vegeta down on his feet and part of the flush left the ouji's face.
" Ohhhhhh.. " Vegeta quickly shook his head and whipped out the peasant-repel. He frantically yanked the top off the
bottle and held it over his head, soaking his entire upper body and sending waves of kaka-germs spiraling off him and onto
the floor, " ▫Whew▫... " he glanced over at Goku.
Vegeta smiled wryly back at him, " Merry Christmas, Kakarrotto. "
4:12 PM 1/19/2005
THE END!
Chuquita: HOORAY! It's finished!
Vegeta: See, you made the right choice in simply adding another chapter instead of enlarging Part 4.
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) Hai, Part 4 would've been over 100kb if I'd have done that instead.
Goku: (blinks) Does this ending seem rushed to you?
Chuquita: Only slightly. Blame it on my overwhelming eagerness to begin Fic #100. (grins super-excitedly)
Vegeta: (shifts around uneasily) I fear Fic #100.
Chuquita: That's just because of the position you're put in, Veggie. Oh man I'm so EXCITED! It's gonna be so much FUN!
(happily) Only one more fic before we get there guys! And that's the Piccolo Oneshot!
Goku: (chirps) Which will have a name of its own shortly!
Chuquita: Yes it will! Piccolo oneshots are always a fun way for me to relax when coming off a fairly big fic like this one.
Besides it makes for a nice "semi-calm before the storm".
Goku: Heehee— I get to be the hero in Fic 100—— (wags his tail)
Chuquita: Hai! It's gonna be big indeed. Especially since I've been planning it out for nearly a year now. I normally NEVER
plan out a fic that long before writing it. Usually I plot stuff out 2 to 4 months ahead of time.
Vegeta: (suspiciously) I still don't completely trust this situation you're placing me in. (folds his arms)
Chuquita: Aw come on Veggie, you know I would never go beyond PG-13 unless a plot absolutely called for it. And so far
nothing really has, so...
Vegeta: Hn... (shifts around again)
Goku: Aww, poor little Veggie is worried. (pouts and gives Veggie a hug) There there little Veggie.
Vegeta: (flushes bright red) Eep?
Chuquita: And now to the reviewer-replies!
To Blood-Red Amber: Nope! She tried to though. Hai! Fusions are very cute! :D
To SupersayiankingTommy: Chi-Chi's frying pan is dangerous. Luckily she rarely uses it in my fics, but unfortunately she
instead opts for the even more dangerous bazooka. Gotenks will be making a few new upcoming apperances, but I dunno if I'd
want to have him stuck or not. The two Hercule and Goku fusions from Budoukai 2? Oh they're scary! Mr. Gotan more than Gokule
though. Gotan's a reminder to me that Hercule should never shave his facial hair. Good luck with your fic!
To Hakura0: Oop! I kinda forgot about the danger of being poisoned while wearing mistletoe '.';; Vegeta G was too depressed
to want to go back right away. Also if I sent them right back to the main timeline a large chunk of this chapter wouldn't
have happened, or it would've gone in a completely different direction. I'm not sure how many times altogether, but I did
find out that the word "platonic" has been used in 26 stories altogether, and that it's actually been around in my fics for
almost two years now. Also! It first appeared in "Flying Saucers" were Veggie uses the word "non-platonic". :)
To Lchan: Oh-kay! lol! Prego. Interesting names. In Veggie dialogue, "smooch" is actually the platonic form of kissing.
Goku: (shakes his head) Hai, I'm not allowed to kiss Veggie cuz its against rule #3.
Vegeta: That kind of rule I can tolerate. Besides, even if Kakarrotto didn't have such a rule placed upon him, since he has
no non-platonic feelings for me anyway he would continue to use smooches instead of kisses. (nods)
Goku: I would?
Vegeta: Yes you would! (face goes bright red)
Turles: (sweatdrops at being poked) ...?
To Lchan: Thanks! I'm currently working on "Kakarroujo"'s re-upload.
Vejitto: (grins) Such a nice wreath. (pats it)
To JustSomeGuy: Aw, glad you liked it! Shenlong's a fun character to work with, even though he isn't used that often.
Veggie's definately gotten more paranoid lately. Poor guy, he needs to relax.
Goku: I can help Veggie re-lax!
Vegeta: (flushes light red) I'd rather you didn't.
To tea: Glad you liked it! Both were fun scenes to write. Gogeta spent a large amount of this chapter in his own timeline.
Thanks for the vote! I still don't know what I'm doing with the possible-3rd-fusion-baby though. That she would! :)
To CerisaTempest: Thanks! Happy you liked the Shenlong part! I dunno where his home is exactly. In the show/manga, Shenlong
always seems to be in more of a hurry to get home than Porunga does. It would be interesting.
To PerfectCell17: Glad you liked it! Heh, the rest of Turles's plan is in this chapter. Bejito-sei would make for a great
backdrop in Budoukai 3. In the walkthrough I've been using lately it lists where the dragon balls are in Veggie's DU:
Saiyajin Saga DB's:
In the forest on the far northwest on the main continent, East of the tournament platform in the ocean.
Freeza Saga DB's:
Northwest of a cave on the far southeast island, NamekianVillage on the southwest island.
Cell Saga DB's:
South of SouthCity, in the Ocean.
Buu Saga DB's:
North of Kami's Lookout, and A little bit southwest of Kame House.
I hope that helps! I should've reposted the first two chapters by the time this chapter is uploaded. :)
To Albino Black Sheep: Thanks. Glad you liked it!
To GogetaJr: Aw it's oh-kay. At least the review button is working for you again! :) Happy you liked that part! Heh, we're
supposed to get a huge snowstorm simliar to that here this Saturday. Hai, original characters are always hard for me to
think up; which is why there aren't that many of them in my stories. Thank you for your vote! I still have to figure out what
I'm doing with that. Veggie was very happy and touched by his present. And Goku was happy that Veggie glomped him. You'll
find out in this chapter! Yup! Just tell me when you upload it, oh-kay? You're welcome! I'm a little over halfway there
unlocking all the characters. Android 16 you unlock on your 2nd time through Kuririn's DU. After you fight Freeza the first
time, two red dots should appear on the screen. Go to the one on the right and you'll meet up with Ginyu after he became a
frog. Then continue on as usual and your DU should extend into the Cell saga. Android 16 is one of the ???'s on that map.
Bring him to Capsule Corp before going to the Cell Games and you'll unlock him.
As for Omega (Ii) Shenlong and SSJ4 Goggie:
From the walkthrough guide: OMEGA SHENRON/SSJ4 GOGETA:
Do the Broly events and you should be invited to a tournament, ignore
the invite and instead head to WestCity and talk to Bulma. You may
need the 7 dragon balls for this. Then continue to the tournament.
Then Omega Shenron will awaken, go to the marker to fight him, and
Vegeta and Goku will fuse, to make SSJ4 Gogeta! SSJ4 Gogeta is so
powerful, you only fuse for about 30 seconds before it wears off, and
fortunately you do so much damage with just a regular attack it really
doesn't matter.
I have yet to unlock both of them '.';; My highest level? I think Goku's on 26 and Veggie's 24. I have to double-check
though. Oh! I unlocked regular Goggie! :D He's so much fun, I luv his attacks. You're so lucky you have warm weather. I miss
summertime so much! Glad you liked the mistletoe. Yup, Goku made Veggie VERY happy by making that wish. K!
To Jenna & Vash: Aw, sorry you're stuck too. It's really hard to level up in that area to the left of the save button
Especially against those particular bad guys who shoot at you as opposed to the ones who just try to punch. Ooh, that would
make a fun story once it gets warmer outside, and I luv using the gang on Bejito-sei. Heh, I can just imagine Chibi Veggie
making a sandcastle. Hiei's afraid of Goku? The kaka-germs shouldn't bother him, I wouldn't think. Goodluck with the games
as well! I'm currently going through the DU's to try to unlock everybody. I'm a little more than halfway there. lol! Toma
can't go on vacation.
To Gokurper: Ah, Veku. I'm not sure what happened to him. He was in that one story and then disappeared. Interesting idea to
use him though. I'll think about it. :)
To orchideater: Aw it's alright, no matter what day a review is sent it always gets a reply :) Good advice, I do plan to let
the fusion-baby idea sit for a little while before I decide what to do with it. There's currently way too many directions
to go in with that and I need to organize things first and figure out whether or not to use the plotline and how it would
affect everyone. I was really starting to get confused due to the sheer number of opinions on which gender the 3rd fusion
baby would be and what he or she would look like or act. (dizzy) Original characters are one of the hardest things for me to
write, that's why I normally avoid them unless they're either critical to the plot (Like Ms. La Flu in "Veggie-wear", the
Veggie android in "Veggienapped", or V.2 the gt-looking Veggie-clone in "Doublemint") or Toriyama never supplied information
about them (such as Queen Ruby--Veggie's mom, or from my comics, Cilantra--Brolli's mom). Heh, I like using Shenlong. Shame
I can't use him that often though since the fics run on semi-realtime. I'm not sure how those two wishes would be smushed
together, unless Goku had a more clever trick than simply putting them into the same sentence. I liked Suno too. She seems
really nice and she rescued Goku from freezing to death and lent him some cold-weather clothes. During the first Piccolo arc
she's even in the filler and it could've easily led people who didn't know how Dragon Ball ends to believe that she would end
up with Goku rather than Chi-Chi who had appeared less often. I liked that they gave Launch a cameo. Good to know she's still
around somewhere. The scene with Veggie seeing his planet again was so much fun to write. He missed his home so much. Heh,
he's going to try to peek at it during the oneshot. Wow, even with the choppy feed it must've been cool to see the parade. I
have a 56k modem so it wouldn't even completely load when I tried to watch it '.';; That shot of the Goku float sound great!
You're very lucky. :)
To ShiningMoon: Aw, you're not late, don't worry :) Heh, the mistletoe plots are fun. Having Bulma constantly busy and away
from home is one of the few downsides Vegeta G has to deal with. Veggie was so happy about the wish. They will get to their
picnic soon. :D
To Queen Phoenix: Hee— I may be uploading part 2 of "Kakarroujo" and Part 5 of this chapter on the same day cuz school was so
long yesterday. I'm very happy its back, I worked really hard on "Kakarroujo" :)
Aww, thank you so much for the fav! Veggie definately had a vastly mixed amount of emotions after finding out about the
"baby". He's still affected by it. Any good dbz sites? I suggest Dragonball Arena: dragonballarena.gamesurf.it /english and
Daizenshuu EX: w w w .eden .rutgers. edu/ (insertsquiggle)vegex / Just make sure to backspace the spaces between the urls cuz they don't show
up on this page when typed correctly for some reason '.';;
I'm so excited for the 100th fic! It's gonna be so much fun!
Chuquita: And so, "Slushie" comes to an end!
Vegeta: (happily tosses armfuls of mistletoe into the trash)
Goku: Hee— Happy Be-lated New Year everybody!
Chuquita: (grins) See you sometime next week with chapters 3 and 4 of the "Kakarroujo" reload AND the brand-new, 8th Piccolo
Oneshot!
Goku: HOORAY!
