Hi everyone! I just want to say thanx for vegetagirlone (*Hailey*) for so much support, and to Trunksluvr for reviewing and sounding as if she's getting into the story :)

If anyone is reading this, please review. Not much happens in this chapter, but its still important to read. I still find it hard to imagine that people have their eyes glued to the computer reading my story lol. Well anyways, thanx for giving up your time and doing so :)

I don't own dbz or ffx I own tika (u know, I was watching an advert on TV and there are new dolls coming out called "Flava" or something and one of the doll's names is Tika dammit!!!!!! ") and I own kestrel too .. and her bunny toy .. hmm.

Chapter 9

"Wow, I can't believe I did that!" Tika shrieked triumphantly. "I mean, really!"
"Alright Tika, calm down." Vegeta said glumly, stirring a spoon in his coffee, and not giving Tika eye contact.
"Hey, what's wrong bro?"
"I'd much rather be called 'Vegeta' if you don't mind." He said rudely.
"Fine. What's wrong Vegeta?"
"Nothing."
"Oh come on!" Tika said, now annoyed.
"It's just .. I don't know."
"Oh for crying out loud Vegeta! There's gotta be something getting you down!"
"Yeah! You!" Vegeta shouted as he stood up, the chair falling to the ground. Tika stepped back. Vegeta sighed heavily, and then stood the chair back up to it's right position and sat down on it.
".. What?"
"You're just too damn successful!"
"Ohh, swimming in jealousy now are we?" Tika muttered darkly.
"It's not just that!" Vegeta bashed his fist and stood up again. He walked towards Tika. "I was told that at a young age-"
"You were to become Super Saiyan and the most powerful Saiyan on Planet Vegeta." Tika finished the sentence for him.
"Exactly! First Kakarott surpasses me in strength. In my anger and determination I had driven my self so hard! After the defeat of Buu, I finally accepted the fact that he is stronger! .. And then we meet up again."
"Oh, you don't want me anymore?"
"Shut up and let me finish! Now, I know you're stronger than me, and you're stronger than Kakarott. You're stronger than any Saiyan left alive! Not only have you achieved Super Saiyan 5, but you have also achieved your long life dream of becoming a singer, and you destroyed lover-boy Seymour when you had the strength of a normal human being! It makes me sick! I work so damn hard to achieve what I want, when it comes so easily to you!"
"Well I can't help that Mr. Weakling!"
"Why you little-!!"
"Sibling Rivalry, huh?" Bulma said as she stepped in the doorway, as Vegeta's hands clasped round Tika's neck. Both of their eyes dragged towards the image of Bulma.
"No, we're play fighting." Tika said, dripping in sarcasm. Vegeta left Tika's neck alone and stared at the blue-haired woman. It was an awkward silence until Tika's mobile rang which made everyone jump.
"Hello? .. Oh, what?! .. oh, come on! .. again? .. ohh! .. ok, when do you need me? .. tomorrow? Talk about short notice! .. Fine. Whatever." Tika ended the phone call.
"Who was that?"
"My manager. Look's like I need to release another song."
"Oh great."
"Look, I'm sorry, but it's my job. I'm leaving tomorrow. Won't be back until 6 weeks." The awkward silence visited them again, until -
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!" Trunks yelled, whizzing past his parents and aunt, Kestrel slowly following behind.
"Oh come on Trunks! It was fun!" Kestrel squealed with delight. Trunks ran behind his dad and clutched his leg in fear.
"What is wrong with you boy?! Get off my leg!" Tika and Bulma were laughing at the scene; Trunks dancing round his dad's leg, Kestrel looking like she was trying to kiss Trunks, and Vegeta going round in circles trying to catch him.
"Gotcha!" Vegeta said, as he held his son by his T-Shirt, but unfortunately, Trunks slipped through his top and landed hard right on top of Kestrel. Kestrel began to scream, shout and cry.
"Oh, come here darling." Tika cooed, giving her daughter sympathy and cradled her in her arms. Trunks was about to put his T-Shirt back on, but Vegeta noticed something.
"Trunks, is that a bruise? .. OH MY GOD IT'S A HICKIE!!" Vegeta yelled in terror.
"What?"
"Aww, my son has his first love bite!" Bulma smiled.
"He's a warrior! Not some soft lover boy!" Vegeta yelled in a rage. Kestrel sniffed and giggled.
"That's why I was running away dad! She's been trying to cuddle me and kiss me! She really scares me!" Trunks stuttered and clutched onto his dad's leg again.
"WILL YOU GET OFF AND CLUTCH YOUR OWN LEG!" Vegeta shouted and started to shake Trunks off. Trunks landed on the floor with a soft lump and started to rub his behind. He put on a sad and unloved expression as he solemnly walked out the room sulking.
"Aww, the poor thing." Tika said.
"Oh leave him." Vegeta said. "He's acting like an idiot. Besides, that daughter of yours should learn how to control herself! That's her cousin you know!"
"Hey, she's only mucking around."
"Oh sure that hickie happened by an accident." Vegeta mumbled as he folded his arms and leaned against the kitchen counters.
"Well anyway, I'd better pack for tomorrow." Tika said not hearing Vegeta's remark. Kestrel gave her mum the puppy dog eyes.
"Why? Where are you going?"
"Mummy's going to go away for a while but I won't be long."
"Ok." Tika smiled and rubbed her daughter's head. Kestrel giggled and held tightly onto her bunny toy. Tika walked upstairs. Kestrel stared at them. Vegeta and Bulma left the room to do something else, but Kestrel stayed where she was. Something was going to happen.
