Chapter 2 – Kaerunokohakaeru
King Vegeta's eye twitched. No one... and I mean, NO ONE, insulted the king by calling him by a different name! He slammed his fist into the medical table startling Bulma who was currently getting a shot ready. She almost dropped it at the loud noise, and she turned around glaring.
"What was THAT for Bardock?! You know that medical table could collapse at any sec-"the table slightly shook, and it snapped in half causing the king to fall, and become more injured. He gave a loud, scream... a manly scream... not the blood curdling scream you hear from females...
The king was in PAIN... this might have been the first time he had ever reacted to it. This action caused Bulma to shriek and run over to the saiyans' side. She kneeled down and checked his side. It began to bleed. She shook her head and looked up to the saiyan warrior. "How long have you been hiding that wound?"
King Vegeta was in complete shock as he looked to his side. There was indeed blood, and he didn't know why! He wasn't aware of any injuries, that was unless...
The king glared up at the female and pushed her over. "YOU did this to me!" he exclaimed. The scientist fell over on the tiled floor, hard. She slightly winced as she looked up to him.
"I did nothing!" she exclaimed rubbing her side. Boy did it hurt! The saiyan continued to glare daggers at her.
"Then explain where I had gotten this!" he stated coldly as he pointed to the bloodied area. Bulma gritted her teeth as she stood slowly and turned back to the unknown king.
"For your information Bardock," the king's eye began to twitch again, "I have no idea! It was there before I-"
"And that's another thing!" exclaimed the king as he glared at her. "Why do you call me Bardock?!" If only the king knew...
Bulma crossed her arms as she glared back tapping her foot on the ground. "Well, that IS your name! That is unless you have forgotten!" she shouted back at him.
"MY NAME ISN'T BARDOCK!" exclaimed the saiyan back to the female. She just glared back at him.
"Then why did Vegeta tell me that you were the strong third-class who was the father of Kakarot?" she snapped back. The king was no longer mad; he was pissed!
"What. Did. You. Call. Me." Bulma rolled her eyes as she walked up to the king grabbing his arm. Before the saiyan knew what she was doing, she injected the medicine into the saiyans' system. She took out the needle and walked away from the king. He just stared at her and blinked.
"Wha... WHAT WAS THAT FOR WOMAN?!" exclaimed the king, face becoming red. The scientist turned around after throwing away the needle with a smirk.
"THAT," she started off pointing to where she injected the fluid, "Is a little something I created to help keep power levels down to a minimum." King Vegeta was lost for words. His jaw was dropping as he tried his hardest to snap back something, but nothing did come.
"I need to make sure you don't try anything drastic," explained Bulma as she sat in her seat crossing her legs and arms.
"But... but... You-you can't DO this to me!" exclaimed the king as he tried to power up, "I'm the KING!" But all efforts to powering up were worthless. The energy wouldn't come.
Bulma paused for a moment as she stared at the king. "Are you sure you're okay Bardock? Because if not, I could-"
"STOP CALLING ME BARDOCK WOMAN! I AM THE KING!" he shouted back balling his fists to the side. As he looked back to the scientist, he noticed her blinking rapidly and staring blankly, which was till she opened her mouth and called out for her mate.
"VEGETA!" she exclaimed. It took about a minute or two, but the saiyan prince came running into the room, obviously peeved... but there was something else there too... worry?
"What is it woman?" he asked with a very annoyed voice as he leaned on the doorpost with crossed arms. Bulma glared to the saiyan male.
"You better stop talking like that to me! It's SO annoying! What if Trunks begins to speak that way to other women when he gets older? Then what?!" she exclaimed with a glare and standing up with balled fists.
The prince tilted his head to the side mockingly with a smirk plastered to his face. "That would be the day I would rejoice." The female stomped over to her husband and pulled out a finger poking him in the chest.
"Now you listen here BUDDY! I want MY Trunks to grow up to be a civil man who is proper, kind, and sincere! Not this example you are setting for him!" she shrieked in the prince's ear. Both saiyans in the room winced.
The king sat there, in awe. He'd never seen a woman like this before! Such a strong spirit she had! And standing up to a saiyan warrior too! 'Who is that saiyan warrior?' the king questioned as he tired to gaze at the warrior. This medicine was really warping his vision! He couldn't help but wince once more when Bulma began to scream in her husband's ear.
"WILL YOU JUST SHUT UP!" he exclaimed covering his ringing ears. The two looked to 'Bardock' as he continued to clench his teeth and keep his eyes shut. The prince snorted, as he looked back to Bulma with sarcasm his voice.
"You brought me in here because the 'third-class' woke?" he was not a happy camper for being woken up from a needed nap.
The scientist shook her head, "Of course not!" she pointed to the saiyan who looked like Bardock. "He's claimed to be the king!"
At that, the saiyan prince turned to the warrior, and began to laugh. Bulma stared at Vegeta as he began to clutch his stomach as his knees gave in and he fell to them with the loud cackle still rumbling in his throat. The king was becoming royally pissed. And his person... with a very deep voice was mocking him. If only he could get a good look at him...
"But I AM the king!" exclaimed the saiyan as he tried his best to glare at the warrior. That just made Vegeta laugh harder, tears could be seen falling at the side of his eyes. It was like this for a few minutes, Vegeta rolling on the ground laughing his ass off, Bulma and the king crossing their arms obviously becoming angry. Well, that's how it was till teen Gohan slid in the room and into a wall.
The people in the room had a sweatdrop fall from the site of their heads... and they could have sworn that he said, "Damn slippery floor..." He looked up to the three with the all-infamous Son Grin®. During that time, the prince had regained his composure and stood back up and had the stern looks as if nothing had ever happened. How could he do that? No body knows...
"Bulma! The king has woken up!" exclaimed the teen as he pointed out the door. A few feint words could be made out, which most defiantly sounded like a string of curses... "The king's been like that ever since he's woken up..." stated the hybrid as he could feel a small ki trying to desperately rise. He turned his head, and noticed 'Bardock', and he looked back to Bulma.
He was somewhat lost for words that were till he pointed to the king and stated, "He woke up too?" The scientist nodded.
"I think something terrible has happened, and it had to do with that unfinished invention..." Gohan blinked.
"You... you don't mean that bleepity bleep bleep bleep bleeeeeep?" Bulma nodded.
"That's exactly what I mean..." she stated back to the teen. The king couldn't help but look at the prince raising an eyebrow. The prince just shrugged before the king turned back to the 'discussion...' Well, that was till they saw a very disoriented saiyan 'king' rush into the room quickly looking back every so often. The real king just blinked as he saw his body run in all wobbly, and almost tripping over. That had better not be Bardock... or he swore that he was going to kill him when he got his body back... that was IF he ever got his body back... The saiyan seemed to run behind the king and peak over his shoulder.
"Soldier! How dare you be such a coward!" the king exclaimed. The voice was starting to sound more like Bardock's... and his vision started to become clearer...
"It's... it's... it's HORRIBLE!" exclaimed the 'king' in 'Bardock's' ears. He gasped as two small shadows came into the light. "NO! IT'S THEM! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!" exclaimed the scared beyond all reason Bardock.
A chibi voice spoke up, "Awww! But we were having fun seeing how long you could withstand being poked with a needle!" The child came into view, Goten was his name, terrorizing was his game.
"Yeah! We didn't know grandpa screamed like a girl and acted like Goku!" stated chibi number two, who could only be the chibi prince, Trunks. He had a smirk as he held the needle up to the 'king' hearing him shriek some more and cling to 'Bardock's' head for security.
"Keep it AWAY from me!" exclaimed the grown saiyan. Gohan, Bulma, and Vegeta had a sweat drop fall from the side of their head. And it seemed that all was revealed to them... The 'king' was indeed the warrior Bardock... and the 'third-class' was indeed King Vegeta, who he had claimed to be in the first place.
And with all this chaos going on, Goku came walking into the 'small' medical room with a yawn and stretching. She gave a grin as he entered.
"Good morning!" his cheerful voice chirped as he walked up to his kids. Goten ran up to his dad, and jumping into his arms, with a huge hug and Trunks came up waving to the tall saiyan holding the needle in the other.
"Well hi their Trunks." He kneeled down to the young prince and ruffled his hair. "What are you two rascals up too?" he asked. Both boys grinned as Trunks held up the needle.
"Scaring Mr. Bardock!" they exclaimed. And at the sight of the needle, Goku screamed like a little girl, and ran to the other side of the room where Prince Vegeta was standing. He ran behind the saiyan and backed up as far as he could to the wall.
"Keep it away!" exclaimed Goku. "KEEP IT AWAY!" he exclaimed his eyes widening as the chibi's came closer.
Bulma... sitting on the other side of the room, sighed. This was completely ridiculous... and she could only shake her head at it.
"Like father like son..." she muttered as she looked to the two freaked out saiyans... She had figured out shortly after the king spoke... and Bardock's reaction to the needle the chibi's had. It was funny to see the king's body react that way to something so small though... She gave a small grin. "Like father, like son... as I said..."
