Ch84: Now what!

Goku was on the look out for his father Bardock. Then he thought of the best place for a man like him to be, the lab. Goku walked into his father's lab and saw all kinds of stuff. There were all kinds of weird equipment what he had seen in Bulma's lab but some of these things looked so confusing. Bardock was at the computer looking at a few figures and he looked a bit aggravated.

" Father?" Goku called.

" Over here Goku." He walked over to the complex computer.

" What's up?"

" I… well Cageta needs you to look into something for her."

" What did her children brake now?"

" It wasn't their fault. The computer down at the aging cambers is acting up again."

" That thing can drive even the most great minds crazy."

" Could you look at it father?"

" Ok." He changed computers and looked at it.

" You can look at it from here?"

" Of course. Every scientist has ways of doing things from their lab."

" You're just like Bulma."

" Do you mean Queen Bulma?"

" Ya."

" I didn't know that she was a scientist as well."

" She's brilliant! I should know. I was with her most of my life."

" Are you saying that she is smarter then me?"

" I wouldn't know. Please father don't get me in the middle of a science war. It was bad enough having to have Bulma always yelling at me when we were kids."

Bardock let out a laugh. " Goku… you really are something else."

Goku just stood there and blinked. He had now idea what he was talking about. " So can you fix it?"

" Well it looked like the programming has been damaged."

" Is that the problem?"

" It looks like it. But I will have to look at it to be sure."

Goku looked over at a table and he saw a few scouters. " Do you fix scouters too?"

" Not exactly. I am trying to improve the range."

" Range?" Goku had no idea what his father was talking about. He had a puzzled expression on his face.

" It has a limit to how much power can be read. I have noticed that the power levels now a days is extremely high so I thought it would be better to change the range limit."

" That kind of makes sense."

" I know." Bardock got up from his chair and got a bag.

" What's that for?"

" I need this stuff to fix the little bugger."

Bardock was on his way out when Torra came in.

" Bardock I have to talk to you."

" Not now. I have work to do."

" What's up with you? Do you care more about the wicked Royal Family or your own friends?"

" Look Torra, I have responsibilities!" He said in a more aggravated tone.

" Something is wrong with you. Ever since Frieza you have been one hell of a jerk! I have to talk to you."

" Sorry Torra. It's just that I have to do what they want. They are more powerful then me. I don't want anything bad to happen like last time."

" Sure I understand. It's ok. Just come and see me when you're finish."

" Ok." Goku came out from the room.

" Are you coming father?"

" Your taking orders from your own son?"

" Cageta asked him to tell me about it. Don't worry. I won't go that low."

Bardock left with his son toward the aging chambers.

Cageta gets back to her room, and waiting for her there is Vegeta.

" Welcome back."

" Vegeta."

" Did you miss me?" He said in more of a childish tone.

" What were you thinking?" She muttered. He looked at her.

" What's wrong?" She was slightly tearing. He was wiped the tears away and looked at her.

" What were you thinking when you nearly KILLED Tailless."

" I didn't want to kill him Cageta, you know that."

" I don't know anything anymore. All I know is that you seem to want to kill your own children."

" I don't want to hurt them! I just want…"

" You just want to destroy what they want. You want them to be monsters like yourself. Its always what YOU want never what THEY want."

" You make me sound like Frieza!" She turned away from him.

" Cageta… you know i…"

" Leave. I don't want to see you again!" He didn't move. " GET OUT!" She was extremely upset. She started to cry again. Tarka was near by listening to their argument and he never heard anything like this before.

" Cageta listen. I care about all my brats."

" Is THAT how a father shows how he cares? I never knew that a father would kill his children just because he cared."

" Cageta, it's not like that."

" Get out you jerk!" He came closer to her and she hit him.

" Vegeta I can't do this." He didn't know what to say to her. They have known each other since they were kids and he doesn't know what to say to her.

" Fine, I'll leave. I go back to the dungeon if that would make you happy." Then a horrible memory came in her mind. She remembered how she tortured him when she was younger and the dungeon reminded her about it. He got up from the bed and was about to go when Cageta called him back.

" Vegeta wait!"

" So you do want me."

" I will forget about it only if you never use the dungeon again for ANY of our children, or grandchildren."

" Don't worry I won't." She smiled and " tossed" him back on the bed.

" How's the brat?"

" He's strong."

" Oh thank goodness. I'm having another son."

" Vegeta!" She slapped him behind the head.

" Hey what was that for!"

" You did it again."

" Did what again?"

" You are doing the little thing with the… well you know."

" Sorry. I'm used to having boys."

" Girls keep the race alive."

" I know."

" Then why do you hate it when I have girls?" He didn't answer her. " Don't have anything to say to me, huh. Well I guess you don't have an answer."

Before Vegeta could even open his mouth, Zorn came in. " Sire…"

" Zorn what are you doing in here?"

" I was wondering why you weren't in the throne room."

" Long story. What the heck is going on in there anyway?" Asked an annoyed Vegeta.

" Tailless and Lueka are ruling the planet together, and there is some confusion."

" Where is my father?"

" Your mother told him to take a vacation."

" That is something new."

" Sire we really need you. We have problems coming from every where."

" Let me guess, people who want revenge or destroy the race, right?"

" You got it."

" Isn't it sad that without our guidance they are completely lost." Cageta said.

" Your highness we have no time to talk. The children need help." Zorn said.

" Well you know I'm off duty." Cageta said while pointing to her tummy.

" Oh right. Good luck with that baby of yours."

" You know me." Vegeta was getting angry.

" My mother is so self centered sometimes!"

" Calm down sire. She wants what's best for your dear father." Zorn argued. Cageta couldn't help but laugh.

" I am going to talk with him." Vegeta was almost out of the room when Tarka came in.

" Well it's nice to see you two are together again."

" Not now." Vegeta hissed. He nearly punched him.

" Don't mind him." Cageta said.

" What's his problem?" Asked a confused Tarka.

" His father." Zorn stated briefly.

" What's wrong with his father?"

" He's taking ten." Cageta said.

" Taking ten?" The two other Saiyans questioned.

" It is a earth term… I picked it up from Bulma. It means he's taking ten minutes off, but in reality he is actually taking a vacation." The two Saiyans looked at their Queen.

" That is just great you know."

" It's what his mate told him too do."

" She can't order him to do anything, Zorn, and you know that."

" I know but Asocka has a habit of doing it when she thinks it is serous."

" I noticed that about her when I first meet her." Cageta said from the bed.

" Are you ok? You seem tired." Tarka asked.

" Do you want to dismiss us, your highness?" Zorn asked.

" No it's ok."

" Are you hungry?"

" No need. I am fine."

" I worry about you sometimes." Tarka said.

" Like I don't!" Questioned Zorn.

" Do you two mind postponing your argument?"

" Forgive me…"

" Stop apologizing!" Zorn was completely perplexed at her attitude. Cageta was mostly a kind and gentle person but now the young girl was acting like a Saiyan version of Frieza.

" Your highness are you completely sure your ok?" Tarka continued his questioning.

" For the last time, I'M FINE!"

" Cageta I think you need a little doctoring."

" Calm down."

Then the two Saiyans saw a blast glow in her tummy.

" That's the problem."

" What?" The young mother asked. Then she looked down and saw her tummy glow.

" Damn BRAT!"

" Well we can expect him to be strong like his father." Zorn said proudly. So they went to the doc.
