Quote of the Week: -from Shounen Jump #19
Veggie: We don't need you OR Goku. I only need the ROOM for one more day.
Cell will regret giving me more time...

/dl

Chuey's Corner:
Chuquita: "The ROOM"?
Vegeta: THE room.
Goku: (utterly confused) "Goku"??
Chuquita: (grins) Welcome to Part 3 everybody!
Vegeta: Interesting little quote.
Chuquita: Well I had to find one from the books this time because I was kicked off the comp downstairs by my sister before I could start the next chapter. All my scripts from eps are downstairs.
Goku: (looks around) Wow, so where are we?
Chuquita: For now, my room. Hopefully I'll get back downstairs and I'll just move this file from the laptop to the other computer. (nods)
Vegeta: (looks at japanese dbz book) (frowns) I only came in 2nd in this poll? I was number 1 in the Shounen Jump poll they did here. (looks up to see they're suddenly back downstairs) GAH!?
Chuquita: Change of scenery.
Vegeta: (sweatdrops) I noticed.
Chuquita: Did you really not know what "The Room of Time and Space" was called?
Vegeta: (snorts) It didn't really seem important at the time.
Goku: Heehee, like how Veggie didn't bother to remember Piccolo's name and kept calling him "that guy" in the quote we had from the show a while ago.
Vegeta: I have a selective memory.
Chuquita: Ah.
Goku: (confused) And why did Veggie call me "Goku" in the quote.
Vegeta: Typo, most likely.
Chuquita: If I had the japanese version of that particular graphic novel we'd know if it was a typo or not.
Vegeta: (now comparing the Shounen and Sub polls) I seem to be much more popular here than in the country I was created in. (sweatdrops) That's odd. (takes the Shounen Jump poll out of the book)
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) My poor book.
Vegeta: I should hang this poll I won in my room somewhere.
Chuquita: Other than you winning that poll, everyone after you and Goku seems to be in the same or almost-same spot in both of them.
Vegeta: (flips pages) Gohan came in 3rd both times.
Chuquita: I'm curious to see how the manga version does him and the rest of you in the Cell Games. I've gotten to really like the manga version of this. Veggie's very entertaining in it.
Vegeta: (smirks) That I am.
Chuquita: And manga-Veggie has quite a vocabulary.
Vegeta: As the Saiyajin no Ouji I am required to have a vast amount of words from which to pull from.
Goku: Heehee.
Chuquita: The only time other than in the saiyajin saga when Veggie didn't know who "Goku" was, I think he did call him that once while questioning an alien in outer-space in the Garlic Jr eps.
Vegeta: I spent an entire year looking for the big baka peasant and STILL couldn't find him!
Chuquita: Yeah. It's a shame though they used you and Goku so little in those eps. (grins) It would've been great to have Veggie come back to earth and face off against the possessed Chi-Chi, Piccolo, Yamcha, and Roshi.
Vegeta: (sighs) Ahh, that would've been interesting....
:::Chi-Chi: RAARR! (lundges at Veggie)
Vegeta: YAH! (elbows her on the top of the head, knocking her to the floor)
Kuririn: (sweatdrops) Vegeta! She wasn't possessed yet!
Vegeta: (grins evilly) Oops.
Chi-Chi: (raises arm in pain) Curse...you...Ouji. (slumps back onto floor):::
Vegeta: Yes, it would indeed have been an interesting experiance for me.
Goku: Wasn't that the time when Kuririn had that other girlfriend; the one before Juuhachigou.
Chuquita: Yeah, Maron.
Vegeta: I like to think of her has Bulma with a lobotomy.
Chuquita: (sweatdrops)
Goku: (chirps) And now for Part 3!

" Will you just LOOK at them in there! I swear if I didn't know the Ouji was the victim in this little escapade... "

Chi-Chi muttered as the gang peered through the window in the living room. Goku and Vegeta were at the kitchen table

contently eating cake and talking with each other.

" Well Vegeta seemed to be fighting it, I think. " Bulma folded her arms, trying to figure it out. She watched as

Goku reached over, squirted a big blob of whipped cream onto the top of Vegeta's slice, then smiled at him. Vegeta's cheeks

turned red.

" No good can come of them using whipped cream in this condition. Let's confiscate it. " Chi-Chi reached for the

doorknob.

" Wait! " Mirai said, " We can't just burst in there and take the whipped cream away for no reason. "

" Hmm, Mirai's right. " Chi-Chi nodded, " Ah! " she turned around, " Demi-Oujis, go tell Goku-san and the Ouji that

you need their can of whipped cream for something. "

" We don't take orders from YOU, Onna. " Gogeta blew her a rasberry.

" Will you give us a fish if we do it? " Vejitto asked.

" Mm? " Gogeta looked over at him with his tongue still out.

Chi-Chi sweatdropped, " Ah, sure! You can pick from any fish we have back at our house. "

" ...any fish? " Gogeta said, suddenly interested.

" ANY fish. " she sighed.

" Oh-kay! " he chirped, then followed Vejitto into the building.

/dl

" ▫Chew▫chew▫chew▫GULP▫. " Vegeta contently ate another piece of cake only to pause. He shifted uneasily, then

looked up to see Goku staring at him with a warm smile on his face, " Ah, Kakarrotto? " he sweatdropped, " You oh-kay? "

" Veggie makes me so happy. " the larger saiyajin sighed. Vegeta felt a mild, freaked out shudder occur in the back

of his mind, " And seeing Veggie happy makes me feel even better! I wish this day could last forever... "

Vegeta laughed nervously, " That's very, mushy of you, Kakarrotto. "

" Hey Mommy? "

Vegeta looked to his left to see the fusions standing there and let out a mental sigh of relief, " VEJITTO! GOGETA! "

he instantly got up as if in a hurry, " WhatstheproblemwhateveryourehavingtroublewithIwilldomybesttoassistyou! "

" ? " Vejitto and Gogeta stared at him as if the speed at which Vegeta'd just spoken at had blown several fuses in

their brains.

" Umm, actually we just want to borrow your whipped cream, Toussan. " Gogeta pointed to it.

Vegeta frowned, " Oh. " he took it and handed it to the dance fusion, " Here you go. "

" Thank u! " Vejitto smiled and the fusions left the house again.

The ouji scratched his head, " I wonder what that was all about? "

" Veggie? "

" Hai, Kakarrotto? " Vegeta looked back to see Goku had a regular happy expression on his face again, " Oh good.

You're back to normal. "

" Veggie dance with me! " the larger saiyajin grinned and held out his arm.

" ...and I use that term loosely. " Vegeta said flatly, then asked curiously, " What kind of dance? "

Goku smiled, " You know, a saiyajin one. Don't oujis and oujos dance together just like princes and princesses do on

Earth? "

The smaller saiyajin smirked back at him, " Yes, Kakarrotto, " he reached out and took Goku's hand, " As a matter of

fact they do. "

/dl

" NOW what are they doing? " Chi-Chi exclaimed, peering through the window.

" It looks like...they're dancing with each other. " Bulma blinked, confused, " Or hugging and swaying at the same

time. I can't really tell, I've only danced with Vegeta once before and he was moving a lot faster than he seems to be now. "

she folded her arms.

" Who is leading? " Vejitto popped up from behind Chi-Chi.

" By the way here's your whipped cream. " Gogeta handed to bottle to her.

Chi-Chi shook it, " HEY! This is empty! " she looked up and sweatdropped to see Gogeta with a whipped-cream mustache

and beard.

" ... " ▫

" Yes? "

Chi-Chi threw the can over her shoulder, " Oh forget it. "

" We still get our fish though, right? " Vejitto asked.

" Yeah, sure, you still get your fish. " she brushed it off, then peered back in the window, " And why is the Ouji

leading? Goku-san should be leading! It's safer that way! "

" Actually I feel it is safer with Vegeta leading. " Bulma replied, " He's able to "control" himself better than

Son-kun. "

Vegeta dipped the larger saiyajin to the point where Goku's head almost touched the floor, then quickly yanked him

back up again and giving him a light head. The larger saiyajin had a dazed, content smile on his face.

" Yeah, that's "control" alright. " Chi-Chi said flatly, then reached for the doorknob, " Forget 'observing', I'm

going in! "

" Hey! Chi-Chi! "

" Eh? " she blinked, then looked over her shoulder to see Kuririn, Juuhachigou, and Yamcha standing there, " Oh...hi

there. "

" So! What are you doing here? " her hand gripped onto the doorknob while she watched through the window out of the

corner of her eye. Vegeta spun Goku on his toes and lifted the larger saiyajin into the air, causing Chi-Chi to let out a

small mental twitch.

" We just happened to be in the neighborhood--trying to find gifts for Gohan and Videl when they get back--and we

sensed all of you here so we thought we'd drop by. " Kuririn explained.

" Oh. "

" ... " ▫

" Are they dancing in there? " Juuhachigou cocked an eyebrow.

" Umm, yes, actually. They are. " Bulma laughed nervously.

Vegeta tossed Goku into the air and caught him, then continued waltzing the 'oujo' around the kitchen floor.

" Any particular reason? "

" It's a rather embarassing situation. " she sweatdropped, " You see it all started yesterday... "

/dl

" Whee——heeheehee! " Goku laughed. Vegeta was spinning him around at a speed most humans would find disorienting,

" You're the BEST, Veggie! " he gushed.

" Really? " Vegeta smirked and pulled the larger saiyajin back against him.

" Mmm-hmm! " Goku nodded, " Hey Veggie? "

" Yes my Oujo? "

" Can I spin you now? "

" NO! " Vegeta said suddenly.

" ..but, why not? " Goku frowned.

Vegeta let go, " Because that would require you to lead. And I'm not comfortable with you leading; understand? " he

let out a snort.

Goku shrugged, " Whatever you say Veggie. "

The ouji grinned, " I luv it when you say that. "

Goku smiled.

" Now how about we both get cleaned up and nap. "

" A nap? " the larger saiyajin blinked, " But Veggie I don't take a nap for another... " he looked at the clock in

the kitchen, " Two hours. "

" Ah, but this is a special nap; complete with naptime surprise. " the ouji said, heading for the stairs.

Goku's eyes lit up at the word "surprise", " Is it a PRESENT, Veggie? "

" Mmm-hmm. "

" A special present for Veggie's special little Oujo? " the eyes enlarge 3 times over and started to sparkle.

" Mmm-hmm. "

" AHHH! I can't wait! " Goku clasped his hands together, " Veggie tell me now? "

" But that would spoil the surprise. " Vegeta said tauntingly, " You wouldn't want me to spoil it for you, huh

Kakarrotto? "

" I suppose not... " Goku trailed off, slightly disheartened.

" Now follow me. As Ouji and Oujo we naturally help each other get cleaned up for the nap. " Vegeta headed for the

stairs.

" ...you mean I get to brush Veggie's teeth for him? " Goku giggled at the thought.

Vegeta sweatdropped, " Ah, something like that. "

" YAY! "

/dl

" ...and so we've decided to observe them for a little while until something bad happens or we need to go inside. "

Bulma finished explaining.

" ... " Yamcha, Kuririn, and Juuhachigou stared at her, gawking.

" You mean...Goku's his OUJO now? " Kuririn choked out.

" For the day, yes. " Bulma injected.

" ... " ▫

" Poor GOKU. " Yamcha shook his head.

" Yeah man, I wish we could do something. " Kuririn replied. The others sweatdropped.

" Don't ANY of you feel bad for VEGETA as well? " Bulma exclaimed.

" Not really. " Juuhachigou shrugged it off, " Besides, doesn't he enjoy being "in charge" when it comes to Goku? "

she pointed back to the window. The ouji was currently carrying the larger saiyajin up the stairs. Bulma sweatdropped at the

scene.

" Well, yes, but Vegeta doesn't want Son-kun as his oujo! He'd rather keep him at "peasant" level. " she tried to

explain.

" Does it really matter what "level" Goku's at? I mean there's only 5 saiyajin total. " Kuririn held up five fingers.

Bulma sighed, " To Vegeta it does. I don't want to discourage him. "

" The Ouji's taking Goku-san's PANTS off!! " Chi-Chi gasped.

" WHAT?! " Bulma gasped a second later. Chi-Chi ran past her and flung the door open, then dashed inside.

" Heh-heh, such a stubborn little gi sash you have, Kakay. " the smaller saiyajn said smoothly, trying to untie it.

" Chi-chan always makes me double-knot it so it doesn't come undone. " Goku pointed out.

Vegeta looked at the sash, then noticed it, " Ahh, here we go. " he pulled a small part of the sash, causing it to

unravel completely. He grabbed either side of Goku's pants underneath the oujo uniform, prepared to pull.

" STOP RIGHT THERE! "

" ? " Vegeta looked over his shoulder to see Chi-Chi standing behind him, " Onna, hello. Kakay and I were just

preparing for our mid-afternoon nap; I take them with Kakay now you know; and I'm helping him get ready. "

" By removing his pants. "

" ...yes. "

" Goku-san I either advise you to show the Ouji who's in charge or get over here right now. " Chi-Chi said, annoyed

but controlling her anger.

" ... " Goku blinked at her. He pointed to Vegeta.

" NO! " Chi-Chi snapped.

Goku pointed to himself.

" YES! "

He then turned back to the Ouji, " I think Chi-chan's trying to say that since I'm an adult I should take my own

pants off. "

" Very well then. " Vegeta let go.

" WAHHH——! " Chi-Chi nearly fell over, " That's not it at all! "

By now Goku had removed his pants and handed them to Vegeta, who in exchange handed Goku a large towel.

" Now what are you doing? "

" Onna weren't you listening before? We're preparing for our nap, but since Kakarrotto and I are dirty, we need to

brush our teeth and take a short soak in my hot-tub. " he took his armor off and put it in the clothesbasket with Goku's

pants.

" You have no hot-tub. " Chi-Chi said flatly.

Vegeta kicked open the door behind them to reveal a bathroom containing a sink and a hot-tub.

" ...or maybe you do. "

" Heh. " Vegeta smirked, " It will be very delightful, Kakay and I, all alone in a steaming tub of bubbly water.. "

he taunted her.

" Naked? "

" GAH!? NOT NAKED!! " Vegeta snapped, his face bright red, " We shall have these towels around our waists to avoid

any nakedity between us. " he whipped out a second large towel.

" Heh, I suppose it takes MORE than a day for the germs to take a complete hold over you, huh Ouji? " Chi-Chi

chuckled.

" Huh? "

" Luckily for YOU, that won't happen. "

" ...I, don't understand--OOP! " Vegeta felt two hands cover his ears.

" SHH! Chi-chan NO! You can't tell Veggie THAT! " Goku gasped, " If you tell Veggie who KNOWS how he will react! "

he hugged the smaller saiyajin closer against him, " I do not want Veggie to HATE me, or be AFRAID of me, or never want to

speak to me again. " his eyes watered up at the mere thought of it, " OH VEGGIE!!! " Goku held on even tighter.

" What? " Vegeta said loudly, confused.

" Fine. I won't "tell him". " Chi-Chi rolled her eyes, then pointed at Goku, " But if this "nap" the Ouji's talking

about turns out to be in reality a "non-platonic encounter" then you get out of this building as fast as possible before he

even gets so much as a LOOK! " she warned the large saiyajin.

Goku laughed, " Aw Chi-chan. Veggie would NEVER try to encounter me in a non-platonic way. Just LOOK how cute Veggie

is! " he tilted the little ouji's head upward at her.

Vegeta gave her a cheesy grin.

" He's not "cute", he's EVIL! " Chi-Chi waved her arms in the air, then paused, " Well, oh-kay, maybe not EVIL--that

big guy who tried to kill you was evil--but the Ouji is still very VERY dangerous! Especialy under the spell of that wish

you made! "

" I didn't think my wish made Veggie dangerous, Chi-chan. " Goku's eyes widened, " I thought it made Veggie even

warmer and sweeter than before. "

" Uh-huh... " she trailed off, thinking, " Goku-san, you can let the Ouji go into the bathroom now. I'll let you go

too, I just want you to answer a few simple Ouji-related flashcards. " Chi-Chi whipped out several chunky-looking flashcards

similar to those she used with Gohan back when he was a child practicing his times-tables.

Goku removed his hand from over Vegeta's ears, " Veggie, Chi-chan says I can come tub with you if I answer some

questions, can I meet you inside? "

Vegeta cocked an eyebrow at Chi-Chi, then smiled at Goku, " Of course, Kaka-muffin. " he patted Goku on the hands,

" I'll get everything ready--you don't mind sharing my toothbrush, do yo-- "

" --OF COURSE HE DOES THAT'S LIKE INDIRECTLY KISSING! " Chi-Chi shouted, frustrated, " Here Goku-san! " she handed

him a new, unwrapped toothbrush, " This is for you. "

" YAY! I win! " Goku cheered.

" Yes you do. "

" ... " ▫

Chi-Chi looked over at Vegeta, who just stood there like a plush toy. She narrowed her eyes at him. Vegeta snickered

back at her, then reached over and gently rubbed part of Goku's tail, causing a shiver to go up the larger saiyajins spine

and turn his face bright pink.

" Ooh! "

" Heh. "

" GET IN THERE! "

A rush of wind was heard, soon followed by the bathroom door slamming shut.

Chi-Chi twitched, staring at the door, " Evil twisted little-- " she took a deep breath to calm herself down, " Now

Goku-san. Are you ready to answer these 5 simple questions. "

" PRESENT! "

She looked over and sweatdropped to see Goku sitting at a school-desk in his boxers with his hand raised up in the

air, " Um, yes. Now, " Chi-Chi pulled out 5 of a deck of flashcards; on the back of each flashcard as a picture of a little

Vegeta head with x's for eyes and its tongue sticking out.

" Chi-chan, are the Veggies on your cards, dead? " Goku asked, worried.

" Hm? " she looked down at the cards, " OH! No! No....they're not dead, they're, they're sleeping. Yes. " she

shuffled the cards a bit, " Question 1: If the Ouji tries to kiss you, what do you do? "

" Say please and thank you? "

" ...no Goku-san, those words are for when people offer you food. " she twitched, " You say "No, I cannot except a

kiss from you because it would be non-platonic and because I am NOT attracted to you, but to my beautiful wife Chi-Chi.". "

" That's a little long to remember, Chi-chan. " Goku sweatdropped.

Chi-Chi sighed, " Fine. Then say "NO" and if he asks why, say "because its WRONG". "

" Oh-kay! " Goku chirped.

" Question 2: The Ouji asks for a hug while one or both of you is clothesless. What do you say? "

" Wait until I get my clothes on? "

" Good enough. " Chi-Chi nodded, " Question 3: The Ouji wants to take you someplace tropical and secluded. What do

you do? "

" Make sure I have supervision from you or a-nother friend of mine? " Goku tilted his head.

" Correct. " Chi-Chi smiled, " You're doing pretty well. Good job Goku-san! "

" Hee——! " Goku grinned, blushing with pride.

" Question 4! " Chi-Chi said, more sure of herself, " The Ouji thinks it would be "fun" if you two were to speak

only in saiyago for a while; therefore indirectly discluding me and everyone else from your thoughts and opinions. What do

you say? "

" Bonpa de Veggie qui tooo! " Goku chirped.

" ... " Chi-Chi twitched.

" That is saiyago for 'No Veggie, that would be too confusing!'. " Goku translated happily.

Chi-Chi slapped herself on the forehead, " Alright then. Finally, Question 5: The Ouji wants to have a hot, sweaty

non-platonic experiance with you in his room. What do you say AND do? "

" No I cannot do that Veggie because it is wrong and would be breaking rule number 2...and...I leave immidently and

go find you to tell you what happened! " Goku grinned.

" THAT'S my Goku-san! " Chi-Chi happily clasped her hands together, then waited for Goku to get up and tied to large

towel around his waist.

" But what a-bout my boxer-shorts? "

" Keep them on as insurance. " Chi-Chi said flatly, " There. Now go have fun brushing your teeth and avoid from

getting too close to the Ouji while in the hot-tub. " she advised.

" Yes Chi-chan! " Goku nodded contently, then left into the bathroom and closed the door behind him.

Chi-Chi looked at the back of one of her flashcards, " I hope you're happy. I could've not sent him in at all. "

she said to the Vegeta head on the card, then put it away and headed back down the stairs only to great the rest of the group

who had been outside, at the bottom.

" Did you just really do what I think you just did? " Mirai gawked at her.

" Hm? " Chi-Chi blinked.

" Umm, what Mirai means is...you LET Son-kun go into the bathroom after Vegeta wearing only a TOWEL!? " Bulma

elaborated.

Chi-Chi smirked, " As a matter of fact I asked Goku-san 5 questions--4 of which he answered correctly; the 5th one

just confused him but that's besides the point. ALSO he happens to have his boxers under that towel which gives him a safety

net incase something goes wrong. "

" But, what about Vegeta? " Yamcha asked, " He's still under that spell, right? "

" Heh, the Ouji seems to be fighting Goku-san's germs fairly well. He freaked out at the thought of being naked in

the same room as Goku-san, making the probability of an encounter happening at almost-impossible. "

/dl

" WOOHOO! " Goku cheered, leaping into the hot-tub and causing a gigantic splash on the way, " Mmm, so nice. Don't

you agree Veggie? " he happily turned to Vegeta who was now completely soaked.

Vegeta picked a washcloth off the top of his head, " This isn't exactly as I pictured it. "

" So what DO you do in a hot-tub, Veggie? " Goku asked.

" Well, a hot-tub is similar to a pool--only heated--so I suppose we would do pool-related activities. " Vegeta

folded his arms in thought.

" Like going under water? " Goku suggested.

" I wouldn't recommend-- " Vegeta started, then watched as Goku dunked himself only to re-emerge gasping for air 3

seconds later.

" EEEP! Hothothot! " he panted heavily.

" --doing so. " the ouji sweatdropped, then paused when Goku continued to pant, " Kakarrotto? "

" ▫Fwoo▫fwoo▫fwoo▫fwoo▫ " Goku tried to breathe faster.

" KAKARROTTO!! " Vegeta exclaimed worried.

" AHH---fwoo. WOW that's hot! " Goku smiled as if it were nothing.

Vegeta twitched, ::Makes me worry about him like that..::

" Veggie what temperature IS this water anyway? " Goku said, surprised.

Vegeta opened his mouth to reply, only to feel a sense of confusion hover over his head, " I'm...not sure. Infact I

don't even remember using this hot-tub before; or knowing that it was here. "

Goku looked away and gulped.

" It feels like there's either a chunk of my memory that's missing...or that something's been added TO it that

shouldn't be there to begin with. " Vegeta leaned back against the hot-tub wall.

The larger saiyajin played with his fingers, " Ohhhh...I feel so guilty I do not know how Veggie and Bulma and

Chi-chan can handle it! "

" Handle what? " Vegeta asked.

" Keeping stuff from people. " Goku said vaguely, " Not telling little details that're really important. It's so

frustrating not to know, but it hurts even more to know and be unable to tell somebody. "

The ouji smirked and slid closer, " Keeping a secret from me now, are you Kakarrotto? "

A blushline appeared over Goku's nose, " Ah....NO. " he said loudly, then turned his head away again.

" Heh-heh—— aww, come on Kakarrotto. I'm sure its not that bad, or naughty. "

" OHHHHH! " the larger saiyajin clasped his hands over his cheeks, his whole face starting to heat up now.

" You can tell ME, Kakarrotto. " two hands came up from behind and started rubbing the sides of Goku's neck, the arms

straining slightly to reach it, " You can tell me ANYTHING. I won't think any less of you for it. " the voice sounded

kinder now, only with a slight hint of tease to it, " Afterall, " the arms moved down under Goku's own, " the saiyajin ouji

and saiyajin oujo..we rely on each other, we help each other out, we care for one another in ways you have yet to comprehend.

" Goku suddenly felt something pull him back down and stop right before his head hit the water. The little ouji smirked down

at him from where he held, " You and me, Kakarrotto. "

" ... " by now the larger saiyajin's entire face was bright pink, " ....oh Veggie, I shouldn't! "

" Shouldn't, what? " Vegeta tilted his head forward, touching noses with the larger saiyajin.

" Ah.....ah....a......ah...Ve..Ve.Veggie.....Veggie I can't. I can't....I can't d...I can't do...do..th-th-th-th.. "

Goku started to sputter, his brain overloading on itself.

Vegeta backed away, then helped Goku up while the 'oujo' continued to try to finish his sentence.

" --th-th-that. " Goku finished his sentence, " ▫WHEW▫! "

" Are you alright? " Vegeta looked a little disturbed.

" Hai! I'm oh-kay now Veggie. " Goku smiled weakly at him, " Hey! How about we play a water-game! "

" Feeling well enough TO play a water-game, Kakarrotto? " the ouji cocked an eyebrow at him.

" Yes Veggie, yes I am. " Goku said, the pinkness fading from his face, " How about we play Marco-Polo! "

" ...and that is-- "

" --it's like hide and seek only the person who's hiding has to call out "polo" whenever the person who's seeking

calls out "marco". The reason they call out is because the person who is "Marco" has his eyes closed, its to give him hints.

Also, if you're "Marco" you have to spin around 15 to 20 times or until you're dizzy before you start searching; this gives

"Polo" time to hide! Of course, you can change hiding spots as long as you can until you're tagged. " Goku explained the

game.

" I can see where this game would look ridiculous in a non-aquatic setting. " Vegeta observed, then smiled, " Very

well! I'll play your little water-hide-and-go-seek game, Kakarrotto. On one condition. We use our OWN names instead of the

default ones. "

" OH-KAY! " Goku cheered.

" AND we avoid sensing each other's ki because that would destroy the entire point of the game. "

" OH-KAY to that too, little Veggie! " Goku nodded, " SO! You wanna hide first, or seek? "

Vegeta cracked his fingers, " I think I'd rather hide first, Kakarrotto. I'm not in the mood to get dizzy right now.

Besides I would prefer to start this game with my eyes open. Don't you agree? "

" ▫Tick▫Tock▫Tick▫Tock▫Ti-- "

" --that's it! I'm going up to tell him! " Bulma stood up.

" Kaasan no! " Mirai exclaimed, grabbing her by the arm. Bulma pulled it away and sat back down at the kitchen table

with him, Yamcha, Kuririn and Juuhacigou. The fusions were watching tv in the living room and Chi-Chi was baking cookies for

herself to calm down.

" But I HAVE to! We can't just leave Vegeta in the dark about this! What if he does something under the wish's spell

that he'll DEEPLY REGRET tommorow! " she exclaimed.

" Heh, figures. According to you the Ouji can just avoid telling Goku-san altogether about what a Saiyajin Oujo does

but heaven forbid Goku-san keep the OUJI in the dark. " Chi-Chi smirked wryly, " Oh no, the Ouji's uninformed! Quick! We

must tell him before his naivety sets off the apocalypse! " she mock-gasped.

Bulma twitched, then folded her arms, " Hey, you had no objections to keeping Son-kun from that Oujo knowledge either

if you remember correctly. "

" Well that's because Goku-san could easily confuse himself. What if we were to tell him the truth and by doing so

cause him to think he really DOES have THOSE feelings for the Ouji! " Chi-Chi gulped, " The Ouji on the other hand can,

through his twisted Ouji-intellegence, figure out that he himself, does NOT. "

" Ironic, that's Vegeta's reason for not wanting to tell Son-kun too. " Bulma sweatdropped.

" I still do not understand why Toussan makes Mommy so worried about that sometimes. " Vejitto pouted, flipping the

channels on the tv.

" It's cuz Toussan's afraid of losing his Toussan-Status. He wouldn't make a very good Kaasan anyway. " Gogeta

shrugged.

" VEGGIE! " Goku's voice shouted from upstairs. The group glanced upward.

" KAKARROTTO! " Vegeta's voice shouted back.

" ... " the floor above went silent again.

" Well, that was weird. " Mirai muttered.

Chi-Chi frowned, " Ohhh, I wish Gohan were here! He'd help us out. "

" Hey, he deserves his vacation. Besides him being gone for a while brings me almost back to main-character status! "

Mirai grinned, " This is the one of the biggest parts I've had since Vejitto and Gogeta came in! "

" HELLO! " Gogeta chirped from the couch.

" ▫click▫click▫click▫ " Vejitto continued to channel-surf.

" Enthusiastic, aren't they. " Juuhachigou sweatdropped.

" VEHHHHH-GEE——! "

" KAKARROTTO! "

" What are they DOING up there? " Bulma got up and left the table this time. She walked into the living room and

peered up from the bottom of the staircase.

" It feels like their ki's keeps going around in circles. " Kuririn scratched his head, then looked back over at

Chi-Chi who was putting oven mitts on, " Just to tell you, they're not touching. "

" Thanks. " Chi-Chi sweatdropped, then opened the oven door and reached inside.

" VEGGIE!!! "

" IIPE! " Chi-Chi was caught off-guard and hit her mitts against the top of the oven. She twitched and grabbed the

tray, then pulled it out. There were now burn-marks on the mitts, " Honestly.. " she grumbled and sat the cookies down, then

closed the oven door.

" KAKARROTTO! "

Yamcha left the table as well and walked over to Bulma to see the door he sensed Goku and Vegeta's ki's in, " Are

they in...your bathroom? " he looked over at Bulma to verify it.

" Yes actually, that is--well, I THINK it still is. Everything around this part of the house changed so drastically

due to Son-kun's wish. " Bulma looked around, " Do you think you could go up there and see what they're doing? "

" GAH!? NO WAY! Not if Vegeta's up there! He's dangerous! " Yamcha froze in place.

" Of course he is, that's what I've been saying. " Chi-Chi said from the other room in agreement, then wafted some

heat off one of the cookies and ate it, " Ahh, comfort food. "

" You're really alright with leaving Goku and Vegeta in a bathroom together like that? " Kuririn checked.

" Hey, as long as Goku-san's in charge I have no problem. It's the OUJI that bothers me. " Chi-Chi nodded.

" ▫CRASH▫! "

" VEGGIE! " Goku's voice shouted again, this time with a victorious tone to it.

" AAARTGH!? " Vegeta's voice choked out in a terrified noise.

" VEGETA! " Bulma gasped, then ran up the stairs and flung open the bathroom door open to find Vegeta pinned against

the corner of the hot-tub by Goku, who loomed overtop him. Both saiyajin were wearing what looked like only large towels,

" AHH! SON-KUN GET OFF OF HIM! " she shouted, running over and pulling the ouji out of Goku's grasp, then holding him

against her, frantic, " Oh GOD! Vegeta are you oh-kay!? "

" Wahhhh—— " Vegeta mumbled, dazed and glowing bright red.

Bulma looked up at Goku, concerned, " What were you doing to him?....And why is there a hot-tub in this room? We

never ordered one. "

" Me 'n Veggie were just playing "Marco Polo", Bulma; only we were using each other's names instead. " Goku smiled.

" But aren't you supposed to just TAG the other person in "Marco Polo", NOT pin them to the wall? "

Goku smiled, embarassed, " I was just happy to have found Veggie, that's all. "

Bulma glanced at Vegeta, who was still shaking and dazed. She tried to help the little ouji to his feet, " And I'm

sure he's happy to be found too. " she laughed nervously, then walked infront front of the smaller saiyajin, " Vegeta? Hey,

are you alright? "

" Did I, HURT Veggie? " Goku said, frightened.

" No, Son-kun it's not you it's probably just a combination of you and steam and warm water along with Vegeta's

confused mental state due to the wish and his fear of being unable to control all situations he happens to be in. " she tried

to explain to Goku while attempting to snap Vegeta out of it, " Poor guy. You shocked him. " she gave Vegeta a hug, then

lifted him up off the ground, " Come on "your highness", let's take you back to your room and dry you off. " Bulma chuckled,

carrying Vegeta out of the bathroom.

" WOW! You can pick up Veggie, Bulma? " Goku hopped out of the tub and walked over to her, impressed.

" Well he's not very heavy in his normal form. " she sweatdropped, " But I doubt I could pick him up in any of his 3

ssj forms....MAYBE in compact oozaru..hey Son-kun could you grab me a towel from the linen closet, Vegeta's soaked. "

Goku opened the closet and grabbed another large towel.

" Goku-san! " Chi-Chi called from the bottom of the stairs, " What happened? "

" Oh! Hi Chi-chan! " Goku happily waved, " I tackled Veggie in the hot-tub playing "Marco Polo" and Veggie went into

shock so me 'n Bulma are gonna go dry him off! "

" The Ouji's in SHOCK? " Chi-Chi tried to keep from grinning. She headed up the stairs, " Is it bad? "

" Veggie's just glowing and shaking a little bit, its not that serious. " Goku nodded, then called down the hall,

" RIGHT? "

" ... " ▫

He turned back to Chi-Chi and smiled, " Right! "

/dl

" Vegeta. Vegeta wake up. "

" Wah..wha? " the ouji felt something slapping his cheek, he looked over to see a fuzzy blue blob staring at him,

" K--Kaka? Kakarrotto? "

" No, not Kakarrotto. It's me, Bulma. Are you feeling any better? " she asked, but the words sounded all garbled to

Vegeta, " I brought you to your room...or what I think is still your room. " Bulma looked around. The ouji's room looked

much fancier and had a gigantic bed in place of his usual twin bed.

" Ohhh... " Vegeta tried to sit up. His body was damp and he felt naked aside from the towel around his lower body,

" What happened? I feel like I have a hangover. " he stuck his tongue out.

" Son-kun tackled you in the hot-tub. You let out this horrible scream so I ran up to check on you. " she explained.

The saiyajin thought for a moment, trying to jog his memory, " Hmm......OHHH. That. " Vegeta's face turned a pale

green, " Yes, we were playing a water-version of hide-and-go-seek and Kakarrotto was having trouble finding me thanks to my

quick and agile movements. " he started off, smirking. Bulma sweatdropped, " But then he cornered me, so I darted away and

Kakarrotto lept after and tackled me against the wall and GRINNED at me and......that's it. I can't remember anything after

that. "

" Why did you bring him in a hot-tub with you in the first place? "

The ouji groaned, " I don't know! I think I just wanted to impress him, ya know. Make Kakarrotto ooh and ahh at all

my royal possessions. He IS my Oujo afterall....even though I don't remember crowning him. "

Bulma frowned, " Actually... "

Vegeta looked up at her, curious.

" Vegeta the truth is Son-kun really--- "

" --LUVS his Veggie! " a voice chirped from beside them.

Vegeta glanced to his left only to see Goku standing there, back in his gi and leaning onto the bed while waving to

the little ouji, " AHH-HAH! " Vegeta bounced back and nearly knocked Bulma and himself over.

" Son-kun, that was quick. " Bulma propped Vegeta back up, who embarassingly dusted himself off and quickly adjusted

his towel.

" I have brought another towel to help my Veggie! " Goku held it out. Vegeta grabbed the towel but instead of drying

himself off further he wrapped it over the first towel to further cover himself.

" Heard you went into shock. " Chi-Chi snickered at him.

Vegeta snorted, " Well if Kakarrotto knew the difference between tagging and tackling maybe I wouldn't. "

" Does that mean Veggie is MAD at me? " Goku asked, hurt.

" NO NO! It doesn't mean that at all! " Vegeta waved his arms in the air, " I could NEVER be mad at you, Kaka-muffin.

" he patted Goku comfortingly on the shoulder.

Bulma slapped herself on the forehead and shook her head, " Oh dear God... "

" It's just that "Veggie" doesn't like having that close of a contact with you in such a small area....which is

probably why I now have a gigantic bed. " he looked around his room, confused.

" But don't you trust me? "

" Yes I trust you its just that sometimes my imagination seems away with me. " Vegeta laughed uneasily.

" I'd like to run away with Veggie! " Goku chirped.

" No you wouldn't. " Chi-Chi said bluntly.

" No I wouldn't. " Goku corrected himself.

" Umm, maybe we should all leave Vegeta alone for a while, to think. " Bulma spoke up.

" Hai. I like that idea. " Vegeta nodded.

" It's settled then. " she got up off the bed, " Come on guys, let's give him some privacy. "

Goku and Chi-Chi followed Bulma outside. The large saiyajin stared at the smaller one intently, then pouted when

Bulma closed the door, " Ohh. "

" Don't feel sad, Goku-san. Hey! I made some cookies, you can have a few of those. That'll make you feel better. "

Chi-Chi smiled at him.

Goku perked up, " I do enjoy cookies. "

/dl

" ...does he have to enjoy cookies directly INFRONT of the door to the Ouji's room? " Chi-Chi glanced up the stairs

while a vein bulged on her forehead.

" Well he IS worried about Vegeta. "

" He's ALWAYS worried about the Ouji. "

" Mmmm—— " Goku took another bite out of one of the several cookies he'd brought upstairs with him, " These are

such YUMMY cookies. Veggie should let me inside and we'll snack on them to-gether. " he said in a sing-song voice.

The door opened behind Goku, causing the saiyajin to fall back and hit the back of his head on the floor, " Oow. "

he rubbed it, then stared upward to see Vegeta staring downward. The ouji had on a pair of dark red pajamas. The larger

saiyajin's eyes widened, " Hi Veggie. " he waved. Goku sat up, " Feeling any better? "

" A little. " the ouji said.

" Haha! A little VEGGIE! " Goku smiled warmly.

" Umm, yeah. Haha. " Vegeta shook of the unease and helped the larger saiyajin to his feet, then closed the bedroom

door behind them.

" Veggie? "

" Yes? "

" I wanna say I am sorry for scaring you earlier. "

" ... " Vegeta stared at him for a moment, then waved it off, " It's nothing, Kakarrotto. Not your fault. It's mine

for overexaggerating the situation into thinking you'd go a step further when clearly in reality you'd never do such a

thing. "

Goku looked down at his feet, " Steps? "

" After I got my wits back I went to looking around the room for anything that might have aided in my outburst. "

Vegeta continued. He stopped infront of a clothes closet, " And I think I found it. " he grabbed the doorknob and flung it

open, " BEHOLD! "

" CLOTHING! " Goku wagged his tail.

Vegeta twitches, " But not just ANY clothing. MY CLOTHING, and YOUR CLOTHING, IN THE SAME CLOSET! " he whipped out

several items which consisted of clothes that belonged to each of them.

" ▫GASP▫! " Goku gasped in shock, " How scandalous!"

" Exactly. " Vegeta said gravely, then put the clothing back, " And that's not all. Look here! " he ripped the top

sheet off the giant bed to reveal the pillow on the left-hand side did not match the one on the right nor anything else

related to the large, warm-colored bed. Vegeta held up the offender; a bright blue pillow.

" My PILLOW! " Goku grinned, delighted. He paused, " Wait, how did my pillow get here? "

" Good question. I'd also like to know how all your clothes--save for those 2 suits you don't like that Onna's

forced you to wear in the past--got in my room as well. " Vegeta said suspiciously.

" Oh Veggie! You do not think I brought all my things here on purpose! " Goku backed up.

Vegeta let out a tired sigh, " No Kakarrotto. I don't. It's not in your character to purposely trip me up in order

to allow your kaka-germs to devour my brain and then soon after my soul. "

Goku sweatdropped.

" Meaning it must be the work of outside forces! "

" Umm, oh-kay. " Goku smiled.

" However, we shall figure out exactly who after our nap. " Vegeta nodded.

" Good idea little Veggie! "

" Now you go lay over there and I'll try to find a spot on the bed that's furthest away from yours. " the ouji

motioned to where he had pulled Goku's pillow from. He set the pillow back down.

" Does that mean Veggie does not want to snuggle? "

" ... " Vegeta's cheeks turned red, " NO Kakarrotto. I do NOT want to snuggle. " he twitched, embarassed, " That

would just further ingrain your kaka-germs into my body. "

" Oh. " Goku sat down, then smiled as he watched Vegeta walk over to a cabinet in his room only to freeze and look

over his shoulder.

" Do you mind looking away, I'm getting your surprise. "

" OH YEAH! The surprise! " Goku's eyes lit up. He flopped onto his side with his back facing Vegeta, " I almost

forgot all about it! "

" Heh, trust me Kakarrotto, you won't forget THIS little-- " Vegeta reached for it only to find the space empty,

" Uh... "

" Veggie u oh-kay? " Goku asked from the bed, sensing the confusement.

" Ah, no Kakarrotto I'm fine just stay over there where you can't see it until I show you! " Vegeta waved his arms

in the air. He hovered up to see the entire top of the cabinet, ::I can't believe this! It's GONE! How can it be gone I

put it here last night!:: he started shifting through the drawers to the cabinet, only to no avail, " OHHHH! "

" Veggie? "

" I'm FINE! "

Goku shrugged, baffled.

Vegeta folded his arms, " I must have put it a more secure location during that large memory gap I seem to have. "

he glanced over his shoulder at Goku, " Kakarrotto do you remember seeing where I put the dragonball that was on the top of

this cabinet? "

Goku froze in place, " D--dragonball? "

" Yes, it was the 7-star ball. I had it ontop of there yesterday night. " Vegeta explained.

" H--hai. I do remember seeing it ontop of the dresser. " Goku said loudly.

" Hmm. " the ouji watched him suspiciously, then walked over and sat down next to the larger saiyajin's feet and

tail, " Well, I don't have my visual aid, but would you like to hear the surprise anyway, Kakarrotto? " he smirked.

" Oh-kay. "

Vegeta cleared his throat, " Well you remember how you came over yesterday to get Bulma's Dragon Radar and I was

thinking on how I hadn't made a wish of my own in a while? "

" Mmm-hmm. " Goku nodded, nervous the ouji would figure it out.

" Well that's when it hit me! I decided that I would get to the dragonballs BEFORE Gohan and Videl and use the first

wish to put our homeplanet back in one piece so its healthy and thriving again; then use the second wish for a gorgeous

spaceship to take us there in. I sorely dislike the idea of Bejito-sei being broken into so many pieces and I'd really enjoy

giving you a tour of it. Afterall you don't remember our home nearly as clear as I do. " Vegeta told him, then grinned, " So!

What do you think? "

::I think I feel really REALLY guilty!:: Goku sniffled, ::Veggie wanted to use those wishes to fix our homeplanet and

take me on an outer-space adventure! And I TOOK that from him. I'm a BAD Oujo...::

" Kakay? "

Goku glanced up to see Vegeta staring at him, concerned, " Veggie, am I a BAD Oujo? "

" Why would you think that? " Vegeta chuckled. He touched the tip of Goku's nose, " You're the most perfect Oujo I

could ever ask for. "

" ... " Goku sat up and glomped the ouji tightly.

" Iipe!? "

" Never ever leave me. " the larger saiyajin squeaked out, holding on even tighter. Vegeta smirked.

" Never, Kakarrotto. "

/dl

" ▫Ding▫Dong▫! " the doorbell to Capsule Corp rang.

" Hey Chi-Chi could you get that? " Mirai called to Chi-Chi from the downstairs bathroom. Chi-Chi was standing watch

infront of the staircase.

" I'm busy! " she snapped, using nearly her whole attention-span to sense Goku and Vegeta's ki's.

" Onna is deep in thought! " Gogeta grinned at her.

Chi-Chi looked over to glare at him only to see Vejitto standing there with a mock-glare in reply to her own, " Wait

a minute, where-- " she turned in the other direction to see Gogeta's head sticking out of the wall, " ACK!? "

" Haha! Silly Onna! It is merely a window! " he ducked his head in and opened the coat closet.

" The glass got old so Bulma's dad took it out to replace it with a new one! " Vejitto explained.

" Oh...that makes, sense. " Chi-Chi looked slightly frazzled.

" ▫Ding▫Dong▫! "

" I'LL GET IT! " Vejitto raised his arm, then leaped from where he stood over to the spot directly infront of the

door. He opened the it widely, " Hello—? "

" Hi Vejitto. " the glowing yellow blob waved to him.

Vejitto rubbed his eyes, " Uncle Ditsu? "

" I'm trying to see how long I can hold ssj form in. It's really tiring. " Raditsu scratched his head as he came

inside, " Also! How's Kakarrotto doing? "

" He's napping with the evil one upstairs in the fortress of Ouji-related mayhem. " a voice said from the staircase.

Raditsu and Vejitto sweatdropped, " Umm, hi to you too Chi-Chi. "

" She's upset about Toussan's wish. " Vejitto whispered to him.

" I see. "

" Luckily for Kaasan and Toussan AND Onna it only lasts 1 day! " Gogeta smiled.

" Yeah, I was there when Kakarrotto made the wish. "

" YOU WERE?! "

Raditsu looked down to see Chi-Chi sending a death-glare up at him, " Ah-- "

" WHY DIDN'T YOU STOP HIM!? " she shouted.

" Well I didn't know THAT was what he was wishing for. Shenlong exploding was what woke me up. " Raditsu tried to

calm her down, " Then I saw Kakarrotto out there talking to him and he made his wish and by that time I finally got out of

the house to go see him. "

" Oh. " Chi-Chi said, disappointed.

" A better question would be why haven't any of you explained what the saiyajin no oujo does to ototochan yet? " he

cocked an eyebrow.

Chi-Chi sighed, " BECAUSE we're afraid that Goku-san will link "wanting to be Veggie's Oujo" with "falling in love"

and that would likely cause the end of life as we know it. "

" Couldn't you just further explain that part to him? I mean, Kakarrotto only wants that title because he wants

Vegeta to treat him as an equal instead of a peasant. " Raditsu pointed out, " Which is strange cuz he never treated Nappa

and I like "peasants" or even called us that the way he does Kakarrotto. "

" That's just because you missed out on the "Goku-Obsessive" part of the Ouji's life; not your fault. " Chi-Chi

shrugged, " I COULD explain it to Goku-san, but that would take DAYS to get into his head and not have the message garbled

and twisted on the way in! "

" Yeah, shame he hit his head; the old Kakarrotto knew what an Oujo was. Well, as much as a 2 year old saiyajin

COULD, but he had an idea of it; not like this Kakarrotto at all. " Raditsu sat down on the couch.

" Perhaps we could hit Goku-san over the head to recover that knowledge.. " Chi-Chi smirked, " I know which part of

his head has the lump on it. "

" NO WAY! THAT'S DANGEROUS! WE CAN'T JUST HIT HIM!! " Raditsu exclaimed.

" EXACTLY! Besides, Kakarrotto's hidden memory is in a seperate part of his mind. It's near-impossible for them to

co-exist without tramatic after-effects. "

" ... " Raditsu and Chi-Chi blinked, then turned to see Vegeta standing there in his boxer-shorts.

" Vegeta? " Raditsu sweatdropped.

" What are you doing down here?! I thought you were up there with Goku-san! " Chi-Chi said, then narrowed her eyes,

" And why are you almost naked? "

" Well Onna, you see I've discovered something. " the ouji nodded, " I'm a lousy napper. I just couldn't get to

sleep. That and Kakarrotto's hugs are 10 times more lethal while he's asleep and unaware of just how tight he's holding on.

SO I replaced my position in the hug with a fairly-large plushie whom is currently wearing my pajamas as an extra precaution

incase Kakarrotto feels something "out of place". "

Vejitto peeked into Vegeta's bedroom to see Goku fast asleep and hugging tightly onto a large Vegeta plushie, " Aw,

Toussan looks so happy, Mommy. " he smiled.

" MMMMMMM—— " Goku squeezed the Vegeta-plushie even tighter, popping the arm clear out of its socket.

Vejitto's eyes widened.

" You see? That could've been me. " Vegeta called up to him.

" I wish it'd been you. " Chi-Chi commented.

" Heh, you'll wish you'd been me after tonight. " Vegeta smirked.

" And what is that supposed to mean? " she glared at him.

" Well, Kakay's my Oujo. We have to "consummate" our relationship you know. " the ouji adjusted his boxers.

" Consummate? " Raditsu blinked. He looked over to see Chi-Chi standing there with her bangs covering her eyes and

a storm-cloud of doom hovering over her head, " Uh... " he turned to everyone else in the house who instead just stared at

Vegeta in shock.

" Well, looks like we're going to find out who's uke afterall. " Juuhachigou took a sip of her coffee.

" No we're NOT! " Bulma exclaimed, horrified. She zipped over to the ouji, " RIGHT, Vegeta? I mean, when you say

"consummate", you mean it in a platonic, non-sexual way, right? " she laughed nervously.

" ... " Vegeta stared at her blankly.

" RIGHT? " she said, this time a slight tinge of desperation in her voice.

" ? " Vegeta tilted his head Goku-style on her. Bulma gulped.

" Oh God...he's giving me Goku-esque responses. That's bad. " she said to herself. Bulma took a deep breath,

" Vegeta, I can't let you do this! "

" Huh? " Vegeta blinked.

" I mean, if you were in your right mind and it was what would truely make you happy, I think after the initial

shock I'd say "Go for it"; but not while your mind's being influenced! What if you do something you'll deeply regret once

the day is over? "

" Like.... "

" Like ENCOUNTERING Son-kun. Romantically. "

In the background Chi-Chi stomped up the stairs, the little storm-cloud still hovering over her head.

" Umm, well, you mean....me and Kakarrotto...interacting...in a non-platonic manner? " Vegeta started to squrim.

" Yes. Do you plan to do that tonight? "

Chi-Chi marched into Vegeta's room and yanked the sleeping Goku off the ouji's bed, then dragged him out of the

room.

" Ah....I, I don't...what I meant was...K-kaka--Kakarrotto, he's....um, he's really... "

Chi-Chi carried Goku downstairs on her back.

" Uhh..important to me...and, and special and....very a...very a.. "

" --attractive? " Bulma suggested.

" NO! " the ouji yelped, starting to shake. His face turned beet red.

" ▫tap▫tap▫ "

Vegeta suddenly felt a tap on his shoulder. He looked over it, still shuddering, " Hai? "

" I'm taking Goku-san HOME now. " Chi-Chi said bluntly; the storm-cloud and bangs still there, " I REFUSE to allow

you to stick you sick Ouji organs into places where they don't belong! " and with that she whipped around and stormed out

the front door, " HURRY UP GOTEN! "

Goten stuck his head out the door of Trunks's room, " Coming Kaasan! " the chibi chirped and ran out after his

parents. Chi-Chi stuck the sleeping Goku in the front passanger's seat of their car, then buckled Goten in the back. She

got in the driver's seat, turned the car on and sped off down the road.

" ... " ▫

" I gotta applaud her. She hung onto her temper REAL good back there. " Kuririn said, breaking the silence.

" She's been trying. " Bulma sweatdropped, then turned back to the remaining smaller saiyajin, " And speaking of

trying I think we should try to get something to calm you back down. Soup maybe? " she suggested, trying to remain calm

herself.

" I-DON'T-FIND-KAKARROTTO-ATTRACTIVE-IN-A-SEXUAL-TYPE-OF-WAY-BUT-INSTEAD-IN-A-PLATONIC-WAY-THE-WAY-YOU-WOULD-DESCRIBE

A-FANCY-JACKET-OF-BEING-ATTRACTIVE! " Vegeta said loudly, nearly covered in his own sweat.

" ... " Bulma stared at him, worried, " Yes, sure Vegeta. We believe you. RIGHT everybody? " she said warningly.

The others nodded.

" Uh, yeah. " Yamcha shrugged.

" Sure. " Kuririn agreed.

" We believe you Toussan. " Gogeta said.

" That we do! " Vejitto added happily.

" Uh-huh. " Juuhachigou said, disinterested. She took another sip.

" See! " Bulma stepped infront of Vegeta, then took his hands, " We all have faith in you and believe you could

never possibly become physically attracted to Son-kun because that's impossible. "

" Impossible....hai. " Vegeta said in a faraway voice.

" And that you don't love him and would never even DREAM of...performing certain acts. "

" N--NEVER! " Vegeta nodded in agreement.

" Now just follow me and I'll get you some soup. " Bulma smiled, leading Vegeta out of the room.

Vegeta smiled shakily at her, " Soup sounds, wonderful. "

12:17 AM 7/8/2004

END OF PART THREE!

Chuquita: YAY! I got it done before we go to Wildwood on Sunday!

Goku: HOO-RAH!

Vegeta: My poor, poor fic self.

Chuquita: I swear parts of this chapter just didn't wanna work for me. ▫sweatdrops▫. (perks up) Unlike Part 4 which just

came to me a few minutes ago and I spent the last several minutes typing the entire outline for!

Vegeta: Well that's good to know.

Chuquita: (smiles) Yes it is! It's also better for me because even though I don't know if we get to bring the laptop or

not; I'll feel better leaving this story in the middle of Part 4 than at the end of Part 3. It's easier to come back into

a paragraph than to start up the next chapter on my return. I think starting up a new chapter was what I did last year when

I came back from the beach.

Vegeta: Though last year we went in August, not July.

Chuquita: (nods) Yup! And hopefully this year the ocean'll be warm instead of cold!

Goku: (grins) And it would be unfair for us to make ev-er-ry body wait til Wednesday to see this chapter!

Chuquita: That it would, Son-kun! (to audiance) For anyone who hasn't seen it; the newest Shounen Jump (#20) is great! Goku

actually taunts Veggie and Veggie does a lot more of that unintentionally-funny stuff I've gotten so used to seeing from

his manga-counterpart. He makes me smile :)

Vegeta: (sweatdrops) Glad to see you get entertainment out of my personal plights.

Chuquita: We laugh because we luv u, Veggie! (gives him a quick hug) And now for the Reviewer-Replies!

NEW REPLIES:
To Crimson-Red Amber: Thanks!

To tea: Aw, so glad you liked it, and those parts. The cake was fun! You mean when Goku was walking by Veggie? That was "How are you, Veggie?" :D

To SSJ5Gogetto: Glad you like what you've read so far. Interesting idea, but no thanks. Afterall some of the fics at the bottom of my list are out of order anyways because of me putting all the chapters into one file back when this site first introduced chaptered files (before each chapter to a story had its own file). As long as I have 99 leading into 100, I'll be fine. Yeah, this story has a slightly odd storyline, but it's sort of the ending to a culminating plotline, so it seems confusing if you've just come in at this point.

To Saiyajin-Neko: Happy you liked the watermelon part and the cake! Hee- wait'll chapter 4. Yay! So glad you liked Mirai in this :) I like using him in my fics because of he's able to balance off some of the randomness of the other characters. Besides, without Mirai we wouldn't have all those alternate timelines or knowledge of the 100 year possible-future which indirectly caused this storyline to begin with :D

To SSJ5Gogetto: Happy you like the story. Don't worry, I got your previous review :)

To Queen Phoenix: Yup, he reappears in fic 100 :D

OLD REPLIES:

To SupersayiankingTommy: I'd say Son-kun's more clueless and uninformed. I doubt he'd have made the wish if the others had

told him what an Oujo does; which is what he really wanted to know. Heh, that certainly would make the dragonballs harder to

find.

To Cathowl: Yup! I can't imagine Veggie being cheerful all the time, or Son-kun being serious for such a long time either.

Glad you like the Seme shirt. Yes, she can be scary. A saiyajin-germ milkshake? LOL! Poor Bardock. That does sound funny

though; "Forget!". Goku'll be in even more trouble by the end of the story once the wish effects wear off. Ki-blasting ants.

'.';; Haha--a warning device. Saiyago's fun, shame they only showed its written form in the show; would've liked to have

heard Veggie speak in it. Mmm-hmm, vanilla cake's good too :) Different brands have different types of chocolate and vanilla

though. ▫nods▫ It's oh-kay that it's long. I don't mind. Have fun at the picnic!

Vegeta: (to Chu) You mean different brands chocolate taste different from one another.

Chuquita: Yeah. Hershey's chocolate tastes a lot different from Nestle's....and then there's the fancy expensive chocolates

which taste even more different.

Goku: Like Coke & Pepsi! McDonalds, Wendy's AND Burger King's!

Chuquita: Exactly!

To PerfectCell17: Heehee, yup, poor Veggie's gonna experiance a lil bit a trama after this. Glad you like it!

To Afrodite: That's one of the points I'm mentally wrestling on for part 4; whether Veggie should tell Goku the uncut version

or the abridged version of what and Oujo is. Happy you liked her entrance. It would've been cool if they'd have let Chi-Chi

fight more in the show. It seems everytime she tried (except at the end w/Buu where he turned her into an egg) the rest of

the cast would try to stop her and she'd never get to fight cuz she was outnumbered by those stopping her. Yup! I took your

suggestion and had a few of those who made the bet drop in. Piccolo wouldn't have been with them because he already gave his

present; and Tenshinhan, Launch, and Chaoutzu are somewhere else at the moment.

To RyukoVulpix: Aww, so happy you liked it. Veggie really doesn't wanna hurt his feelings about it. Heh, not sure if Goku

will forget or not. I'm still trying to figure out how I'm going to do that part.

To Spot & Jenna: Poor Hiei! The Kaka-germs got to his hair '.';; lol, it's a cat. I remember the black cat from Trigun!

Isn't his name Kuroneko? Oh! And you asked at the last chapter of a fic if I'd ever been down south (I'm in/from NJ) and I

was there; New Orleans actually, 4 years ago for 2 weeks during the summer after my sister won a state dance competition and

we had to go see her in the finals, which happened to be there.

To xanthos: Aww, thanks! The reason Veggie's flashing back and forth is due to the kaka-germs. Goku being Veggie's Oujo

causes their germs to interact much more than usual; they're what's clouding Veggie's mind aside from the wish and the other

affects of him having an oujo. It'll take more than a day for them to completely absorb into his system; which is lucky for

Veggie since the affects wear off at midnight. :) I did get the e-mail and sent "Ai!" to you. I hope you liked it.

To Tonketa-Ouiji: Happy it made you laugh :) Yup, poor Veggie is very confused; and will be even more so in part 4! Thanks

so much!

To daniru: That he will. Don't worry though, Bulma'll help Veggie w/the therapy. Yes he has, poor guy '.';; Well, Brolli

hasn't come back yet so I really can't stick him in there yet; but I do have a BIG idea for Brolli's return, I can't wait

to get to it!

To Deepcoiler: Yeah, I hope Veggie'll be oh-kay too.

Vegeta: (smirks) Yes, yes it has. (looks at questions) The smartest Z fighter besides me....I think I'd have to say Piccolo.

He managed to take over the world once AND he was able to live at Kakarrotto's house for 3 years and still retain his sanity.

It takes both intellegence AND courage to pull that off.

Goku: (pouts) What about me?

Vegeta: (points to his own head) You only have gigantic bursts of intellegence during battle. This is talking about all

around. (looks at second question) I'd say that's a tie between Buu, Brolli, and Janemba. We defeated all 3 of them in

different ways so its hard to tell who was the strongest.

Chuquita: (looks at question three) Brolli isn't in the manga, Toriyama just designed his character for the movie.

Vegeta: I think he designed Brolli during that Mirai-goes-ssj2 phase; that hair in ssj looks suspiciously like Mirai's in

ssj2. (nods)

Chuquita: Brolli isn't as into Veggie in the movie, but if you watch it he does follow Veggie's orders a lot smoother than

Paragus's. He's nice to Veggie til he loses his mind near the end; he didn't try to attack Veggie until Veggie attacked him.

Brolli going after Veggie was inspired by something I read somewhere a while ago.

To Hakura0: They have DIET Pepsi slurpees now? o.O I've never seen those before. Yah, its a little confusing what with the

effects of the wish. Aw, thanks!

To Setsumi-san: LOL! An angry teddy bear. Glad you like the PG-13ness! If I go through with a few ideas it'll hit its PG-13

height by the middle of the last chapter (has to do with one scene). Chi-Chi's trying to cool down. Plus she knows it wasn't

Veggie's fault and therefore can't blame him. Yup! Goku gets a whole 24 hours of knowing how to speak saiyago. Heh, sorry

'bout the spelling error. It was one of those "accidentally mispelled wrong because I spelled it how I pronounce it" things.

Goku will freak out but I'm not sure to what extent. Veggie may just tell him part or all of what an Oujo does. I'll decide

which version soon though.

To Anti-Venum: Thanks so much for the links! Yah, I'm pretty sure that by now there is some adware stuck someplace in my

computer. I found the folder it was being sent to and I have to re-delete the folders everytime I get done online; so I

really need to just prevent them from being recieved. I think my dad's gonna put some update on the computer this weekend;

I'll see if that solves the problem or not (what's weird is that this stuff just started this month). Anyways, thanks again!

I may be able to use one of those two sites :) Glad you liked the story. Yup, poor Veggie.

To Goddess Shimi: Happy you like it! Heh-heh, Veggie clotheslessness. Poor Veggie. That was random. Cool plushies. O.O

Vegeta: (wide-eyed and terrified at Goten's What-If) In that case Goten, "Veggie-san's ass" would be the victim of a terrible

TERRIBLE nightmare from which the only answer to saving that part of his body would be to shower and use up lots and LOTS of

Peasant-Repel. (gulps)

Goku: Heehee..seeds.

Vegeta: (almost calmed down) Correct, Kakarrotto. I would refuse to be the dirt-filled pot with which you were to plant such

seeds.

Chuquita: (sweatdrops) You are so analogiesies, Veggie.

Vegeta: That I am.

Chuquita: (waves) Bye everybody! See you after Wildwood with Part 4!

Goku: Byebye!

Vegeta: We leave on Sunday and come back on Wednesday.
