Author's Note: Well, Vegeta has been called onto the show by Trunks (who is 18) to talk about their father-son relationship.
Vegeta "What about it? I think we have a perfectly good father-son relationship!"
Oojo "Uh-huh, I'm sure you think you have a great relationship with Bulma too."
Vegeta "And I do!…Not that it's any of your damn business."
Oojo "Well, that's not what Bulma tells me."
Vegeta "…What did she tell you? And why are you talking to my mate?"
Oojo "Hey! I'm the author here! I can talk to whomever I want to! And if you really wanna find out what Bulma said then read on my dear Veggie-kins." Grins mischievously
Vegeta sweat drops
Raunchy Relationships and Saucy SecretsThe scene opens up in the Jerry Springer studio where the crowd are chanting "Jerry, Jerry, Jerry!" as Jerry Springer himself makes his way out to start the show…
"Hello and welcome to today's show! Today's topic is 'Raunchy relationships and saucy secrets!"
(Crowd oohs)"Before we begin, I'd like to welcome our special guest security member; Goku!"
The crowd applauses and Goku stands up from the front row wearing a black Jerry Springer shirt with jeans, scratching the back of his head and flashing his goofy grin.
"Gee, thanks for having me Jerry! It's an honour to be here." He says modestly.
"No problem Goku, Steve deserves a day off and we received a tip off from today's first guest that we may have a particularly violent guest that you're familiar with handling later tonight."
(Crowd oohs and hoots with excitement and Goku sits back down.)
"So, let's meet our first guest! Please welcome Trunks to the show!" Jerry gestures to the lavender haired young man shifting nervously in his chair on stage.
"Uh, hey Jerry. Great to be here."
"Now Trunks has come here today to finally confront his father, Vegeta, about their relationship. So tell us Trunks, what's going on?"
"Well Jerry, it's kinda like this. My father and I aren't very close; he's not the emotional type ya know? And it was always so difficult for me growing up. All the other kids would do all this stuff with their dads and he would never do anything but train in the same room as me. It cuts deep and I understand it's difficult for him to show emotion but he doesn't even try to. So I'm here today to tell him how I feel and to ask him to try to help improve our relationship."
"Ok, so let's bring him out!" Jerry signals for Vegeta to be allowed on stage.
The audience begin to boo and hiss and Vegeta soon walks on stage wearing his leather pants and black muscle shirt. Half of the audience change to wolf whistling and hooting (mostly females) as he walks over to his chair and sits down with his arms crossed and usual scowl.
"Welcome to the show Vegeta!"
Vegeta just grunts in response. "Well you were brought on here today because your son, Trunks, would like to ask something of you. Go ahead Trunks."
Trunks turns to Vegeta in his chair and Vegeta looks at him out of the corners of his eyes, not bothering to turn around to face him.
"Well dad, I uh…brought you here today to…"
"Spit it out boy! I haven't got all day ya know! I want to get off of this stupid show as soon as possible!"
"Well, I know that you find it…difficult to show emotions but I want you to try to be nicer to me. You know, to treat me more like a son and not just some kid that happens to live and train in the same building as you. I want us to do father-son stuff…like Goten and Goku." He gestures over to Goku who's sitting in the front row twiddling his thumbs and grinning at them.
"…Let me get this right…you want me to act more like Kakarot?"
"Well…sometimes, yeah."
Vegeta abruptly gets up and pounces at Trunks in fury of punches and kicks. Like a flash Goku is quickly on him pulling him away from Trunks who is now flat on his back gasping for air. Meanwhile the crowd are chanting Jerry's name and are loving every second of the violence on stage.
"Grr, get off me Kakarot!"
"No can do little buddy. Not until you calm down and take a seat."
"Fine! Just stop touching me!" he sits down with a humph and crosses his arms as Trunks is helped back to his chair which is now placed strategically further away from his own.
'As if that'll do him any good.' Vegeta thought maliciously to himself.
Goku settles back down and the chanting quietens to a stop as Jerry lifts his microphone to speak.
"Vegeta, why did you attack him like that?"
"He dared ask me to act like that third class half-wit!" He points over to Goku. "That is an offence punishable by death in my opinion!"
"But you attacked your own son."
Vegeta looks a little puzzled. "…State your point human."
"See! This is exactly what I'm talking about! He treats me just like another opponent, not a son!" Trunks yelled from his seat.
"Shut up boy! Just wait till we get home, I'll give you a 'sparring' session you'll never forget for bringing me on this stupid show!"
"I knew you'd react this way! But that's fine I doubted that you'd actually comply, I was only using this as an excuse to get you on the show. I really have something else to tell you."
Vegeta raised a brow and looked over at Trunks, "Oh really…and what would that be?"
Author's Notes: Cue dramatic music What could Trunks have possibly brought Vegeta on the show to tell him?
Will the father-son relationship between Vegeta and Trunks ever improve?
Will Vegeta attack Trunks again?
Will I get the next chapter out by tomorrow night? (You bet your ass I will )
What horrors still await Vegeta on the show?
Will I ever get the lid off of the peanut butter jar?
Will Akira ever reveal just how Vegeta and Bulma got together?
Why doesn't my title show up in bold and size 14?
Why don't some of the italics work?
Will-
Vegeta "-YOU STOP ASKING SUCH STUPID QUESTIONS?"
Oojo rolls her eyes at him "Fine! Just for that!" She starts to type furiously on her laptop, creating the next chapter
Vegeta "Uh, Oojo? I didn't mean it…really!"
Oojo chuckles manically at him
Vegeta "…What did you just write?" Tries to peer over her shoulder and gasps "WHAT DID THAT JUST SAY?"
Oojo grabs her laptop up and holds it protectively "Ha! Wouldn't you like to know Veggikins! You're gonna have to read the chapter tomorrow just like everybody else."
Vegeta "Like hell." Starts chasing after Oojo and her beloved laptop
Oojo, running for her life "Log on again tomorrow night for the next chapter!"
