Chuey's Corner:
Goku: Veggie asks me not to order him a-round and then turns back and asks for help then how can I help him if I cannot give orders on what to do? (confused).
Chuquita: Wow. Its like Veggie's completely ignoring you and listening to some completely different conversation that's going on in his head.
Vegeta: (sweatdrops) Maybe I was just in a bad mood that day.
Goku: Being a-ttacked by a million bad guys would do that to Veggie.
Chuquita: Welcome to Part 5!
Goku: HOORAY!
Chuquita: Part 4 WOULD'VE been out today...
Vegeta: (sighs) I swear its like you've been jynxed lately.
Chuquita: ..but for some reason the phone lines have been partially destroyed so my house can only recieve calls, but not send them. (annoyed) Thus I have absolutely no access to the internet until this is fixed; hopefully Sunday.
Vegeta: I guess its a good thing you work tommorow then huh? It'd just drive you insane to be unable to contact the readers and im people.
Chuquita: I wasn't even planning to start Part 5 until Sunday! I was going to post the chapter and then im all evening!
Goku: (sniffles) It is so sad that the connection is not working. (perks up) At least the weather was nice out today.
Chuquita: (grins) Yeah! A wonderful 70'F!
Vegeta: Isn't that a little WARM for November?
Chuquita: Not only is it 70'F; one of the local radio stations is already playing Christmas music. Try to figure THAT ONE out.
Vegeta: ... (at a loss for words)
Chuquita: We're supposed to get up to 72'F tommorow.
Goku: YAY! (whips out his swimtrunks)
Chuquita: But then its gonna drop back down to the 60's again.
Goku: (semi-sulks) (pauses) Veggie come swimming with me tommorow when its warm:)
Vegeta: Ah...I'll..think about it.
Goku:)
Chuquita: You know I even thought about trying to im with my cellphone, but I think they charge you per-im and even so I don't know by how much.
Vegeta: Huh. Point.
Chuquita: Well, here's Part 5.
Goku: I bet a Veggie-plushie would make you feel better. (holds one out)

" ▫Prrrrrr▫- " Goku purred in his sleep, a naughty little thought floating through his head. He grinned and gently

leaned forward to swak..a pillow, " Huh? " the large saiyajin opened his eyes only to find himself once again the lone

resident of the royal bed, " Ohhhhhh. " he groaned, depressed. Vegeta not being there when Goku woke up was starting to

become a reaccuring start to the morning. This was the fifth day in a row it had happened.

As expected, there was another tiny, annoyingly neon-yellow sticky-note stuck to the front of Vegeta's pillow. Goku

sighed and rolled out of bed. All the notes read the same thing anyway; along the lines of "I'm learning how to do insert

skill or infromational learning here today; was unable to wake you up and or didn't want to chance my parents finding us

sleeping together; see you at lunch, "Veggie"."

" I just do not understand it! Why does it always happen this way! Every time I get close enough to my Veggie to

finally be happy something happens to tear us a-part so I can't even tell Veggie things! " he exclaimed, frustrated as he

turned the water on in the tub and poured the soap in, " What is the use of all these fancy things if I can't share them

with Veggie! " he slipped into the water, " Bathing is just not as fun without Veggie. "

" ▫Knock▫knock▫knock▫ "

Goku sulked, " Come in Chi-chan. "

Chi-Chi unlocked the added lock Vegeta placed on the door, then slipped inside, " Hey Goku-san how are--- " she

paused when she noticed Vegeta's ki missing from the room, " --oh geez not again. " Chi-Chi huffed, walking into the

bathroom, " OH! " she gasped, seeing the large saiyajin laying there in the tub with a lonely expression on his face.

" I miss waking up next to my Veggie, Chi-chan. " he squeaked out.

" Ah-- " Chi-Chi sweatdropped, " I'm, sure you do. "

" And I miss going fishing for breakfast with Veggie, and I miss coming back here to cook the yummy fish and take a

nice hot long bath with Veggie, and I miss how Veggie'd always rub me in just the right places so I'd-- "

" --that's enough, Goku-san. I'm sure the Ouji misses you in the mornings too. " Chi-Chi laughed nervously. She

paused, " If you want, I could join you in there. "

" No, Veggiescent is more relaxing. Be-sides you've already gotten cleaned up, I can smell it on you. "

Chi-Chi tried to tune out the odd scent-related comment, " You know, if you really want to "help" the Ouji, the rest

of his family's downstairs preparing for his "surprise birthday party". "

Goku shot to attention, " I want to help prepare for Veggie's fun surprise party! " he gushed excitedly, hopping out

of the tub.

" Great. I'll go get your Ouji-costume together and we'll both head down there. "

Goku blinked, " You mean my saiyajin armor. "

" Same thing. "

The peasant sweatdropped.

" OHHHHH! " Goku ohhhed in awe of the luxurious ballroom before him where the remainder of the Ouji's relatives

along with Nappa worked setting things up. He noticed his own parents and brother were there helping out as well. Turles

hung out in a corner of the room, flipping through a small book, " Veggie's got the fanciest house I have ever seen. "

" Well I've got him. " Chi-Chi announced tiredly.

" Is Veggie going to be here soon? " the large saiyajin asked anxiously.

" I hope not, we're not even halfway to having everything ready. " Nappa said as he unfolded the large dark blue

sheet he had with him and flapped it once, laying it out over a long table.

" Anyway we need your help picking up the food I had ordered with help from your brother. " the ouho approached him.

Ruby handed Goku a receipt, " Do you think you could teleport to this building and pick it up? "

" Ac-tually teleporting does not really work that wa-- " Goku paused to read the address, recognizing it, " AH! This

is Capsule Corp's address! I know where THAT is. " he beamed, then grinned at her, " I'll be back in a few minutes,

Veggiesmommy! " Goku nodded to her, then turned to Chi-Chi, " Chi-chan wanna come help me pickup the yummy snacks? "

" I'd like to but I know they'll try to keep me from coming back with you once I get there. " she sighed, smiling at

him, " You take care oh-kay though, Goku-sa. The Ouji 'n I'll still be alright when you get back. "

" K. " he replied, " OH! If, if Veggie gets here while I'm gone-- "

" --he shouldn't be he still has some mental techniques before he takes his break. " Ruby checked her watch.

" --well, if Veggie gets done early and makes it here be-fore I return, tell him I forgive him for having to leave

so early in the morning because I understand its for something very important to him, and that I'll luv Veggie no matter what

time he wakes up. " Goku fervently demanded, then teleported away.

The ouji's mother stood there, confused and blinking, " What was that about? "

Nappa sighed, rubbing the side of his head, " Oh man its Retasu all over again. "

/dl

" There. That's the last one. " Bulma said proudly as she set the box down in the docking bay. She thumped her right

hand ontop of it, " I bet Vegeta's missing his soda and such, I don't ever recall hearing they had any of that on Bejito-sei;

alcoholic beverages yeah, but caffeinated ones...? " she paused and sighed, " I hope he's oh-kay, I haven't heard a peep out

of any of them since they got there. "

" OI BULMA! "

" Huh? " she looked up and gasped, " Son-kun! "

The large saiyajin grinned, " Heee- "

" So, how've you been? "

" How have you been? "

" ... " Bulma sweatdropped, " Busy as usual. I hate to say it but even with how little I did see of Vegeta when he

was still living here its pretty depressing not to see him at all; that and he was the best cook in the entire house! " she

rubbed her eyes, " I miss all those homemade cookies and pastries of his even though I know they're not good for me. "

Goku frowned, " I understand. I spent lots of time with Veggie on his homeplanet until his Ou training started a week

a-go and now I don't get to see Veggie til half the day is over! " he exclaimed, " It is just not fair! I mean Veggie always

comes back from his training all sweaty and ego-pumped-up but I go to bed around 7:30! That only really gives only a fourth

of the day to spend with Veggie! Sometimes he is not even back until after lunch! "

" He did warn me about how busy he'd become if his parents succeeded on their dragon ball hunt. " Bulma folded her

arms.

" Its so very lonely in the morning...and when Veggie's not around its that much worse and that much more confusing

for me! So many naughty thoughts pop into my head if there isn't something to de-ter my attention. And it is so hard getting

around that huge castle. I mean, I can speak saiyago thanks to Veggie but I don't know how to read it! It is so awkard not

being able to read labels on doors or food names on menus.. " he wandered off outloud, " And then I worry a-bout Veggie so

much on being able to pass all his Veggie-tests; Veggie is very smart but he gets upset so easily..and then-- " Goku sat

down on one of the larger boxes and lowered his voice, " --Bulma, I learned that Veggiesdaddy had a friend just like me back

when he was a ouji, but his friend asked him one day if he'd like to take their relationship to a nonplatonic level and

Veggiesdaddy freaked out and ran away forever and his friend was so sad he was de-pressed for an entire year. "

" Ohh, I'm sorry Son-kun. "

" I'm afraid, I'm afraid if I were to say certain things Veggie would run away forever and Chi-chan would be mad at

me and then I'd be all alone and I cannot be all alone Bulma! " he paled, his tail twitching behind him.

" Aw, now I'm sure that's not going to happen. " she laughed nervously, " But if you want to try something out.. "

Bulma smirked, whipping out a device from behind her, " Behold my latest invention: (Without the gravity machine to tend to

I had a lot of spare inventing time) The What-If Machine! "

" OOOOOO! "

" Ever wanted to know your reaction to a certain scenero? Well here it is! Though its prone to faults if you're

already self-aware of it, which is why I designed this baby to work while you're asleep! When you awaken it'll feel simply

as though it were a well-remembered dream. " she bragged.

" So, it is like making personalized dreams for other people? "

Bulma held up the controller, " Personalized dreams you can control live. " she held up two small suction-cup-like

apparatuses, " These are your modulators, they're placed on the sides of the head just above the ears and stimulate the

nerves as if the person were really experiancing the makeshift "dream" as you will. "

" Wow. You could really do some naughty stuff with that. " Goku tilted his head.

" Haha, yeah you certainly could. "

" ... " Kinto'un floated there next to the two of them.

" So I'm a little perverted you don't need to make me prove it! " Bulma sweatdropped at the cloud.

Kinto'un turned to Goku, " ... "

" My powerpole is in check thank you very much. " he said loudly, twiddling his thumbs.

" ... " ▫

" OH! FINE! " the large saiyajin got up and hopped onto the cloud, " See? Nothing but pure platonic-Veggie related

thoughts running through my head. "

" ▫THUMP▫! "

Goku fell halfway through the cloud, " ...oh boy. "

" Maybe you should take this. " Bulma handed the invention to Goku.

" I have a problem, Bulma. " he murmured, staring at the ceiling.

" I can tell. " she pushed a pillow beneath Kinto'un just as the saiyajin completely fell through the cloud and hit

the ground.

" What if I have waited too long to say things? What if when Veggie becomes Ou he'll completely forget all a-bout

me and the special times we shared? " Goku gulped.

" First off, Vegeta would never forget about you because he's got a chronic obession with you dating back over two

decades! And second, that's what this machine is for. Think of it as a test run. You can try different strategies out on him

in his sleep and when you find the one that works, go for it. " she grinned, " Personally, whatever it is you're trying to

ask or tell him, I say move slowly and try to pump his ego up at the same time; that's where all that overdramatic

action-adventure bravery of his comes from and he'll be terrified to try something new if it would pummel his ego at the

same time. "

Goku held the device closer, " Veggie's under so much pressure now..he has so much that is expected from him by his

parents and his people. So many high expectations...so many things wanted from him. But I don't need all that from Veggie.

All I want is to know Veggie is happy. Is it so bad that I want to be the one who makes Veggie feel that way? "

" Sexually? "

" OO "

" Er, I mean, non-platonically? "

" NOTHING WAS SAID. " Goku loudly announced, clutching the What-If machine.

" I have a feeling that'd be kind of painful for him actually, you going in through the out door... " Bulma pondered,

" I'm not a big fan of PAIN pain so Vegeta and I never really tried that. "

Goku just stood there, blinking.

" well, I'll go get my stuff and we'll be out of here. " she turned to head out of the room.

" What do you mean you're stuff--GASP! Bulma you are coming to help me with my Veggie! " Goku gushed excitedly.

" Actually I'm just going to come for his birthday party; I can't stay away from my business duties too long or the

work will pile up and I'll never get any sleep. " Bulma chuckled, uneasy at the mere thought of backed-up work as she ducked

out of the room. Goku looked around, glancing over at Kinto'un.

" Kinto'un can I tell you a super-special secret? "

" Mmph mmn! Mph MmnPh Mmmph. " Kinto'un replied.

" Well... " Goku covered the side of his mouth and whispered something to the little orange cloud. Kinto'un gasped

and Goku nodded shyly.

" Alright! Here I am ready to go! "

Goku and Kinto'un turned to see Bulma standing there in what looked like a spacesuit, " What is that? "

" Its a special device that allows me to walk around under the intense 10x gravity. The suit depressurizes the air

one hundreth of an inch around it. I originally invented it to move about the gravity room incase of an emergancy.

Unfortunately since it WAS created for that purpose I probably won't be able to use it on Bejito-sei for any longer than a

few days before it'll give way. "

The large saiyajin smiled, " It is a very cool suit. "

" Why thank you. " Bulma pressed a button, turning it on, " Now let's be on our way! "

" HOO-HAH! " Goku pumped his fist in the air and prepared to teleport.

/dl

" HAAHHH! " Vegeta sent a blast at the while while in his training gear, a heavier, thicker version of saiyajin

armor. The ouji panted. The armor allowed him to temporarily harness some of his currently hidden Ou powers. He stared

deeply at his mental opponent of the nonexistant Kakarrotto across from him and smirked.

" Very well done, Vegeta. " Bejito called from outside the room.

" Heh- " the ouji grinned.

" Yes, very well done. " the ouji's "opponent" smiled warmly at him.

" ... " Vegeta's eyes widened and he quickly willed the "opponent" away before he started to flush. The small

saiyajin removed his training gear, exposing only his under-armor. He then left the room and swapped his training gloves and

boots for his usual ouji ones, " Hehh- man I can't wait to do that for real. " :I can only imagine how unbelievably

impressive this will be to Kakarrotto! He'll be all "Oh Veggie you're so amazing and wonderful and full of super-special

seme powers the likes of which can never possibly be matched!" Heehee...hahahahaha...: the little ouji started to purr,

" Kakarrotto... "

" ▫Tap▫tap▫ Hey Vegeta? "

" Eh? " the ouji blinked, snapping out of his little dream world.

" Vegeta I'm going to go help your Kaasan with the bir----thing. Yes, with umm, the thing. " Bejito caught himself.

" Oh. Uh, fine. Alright. You go do whatever it was you just mentioned and I'll go..do something else. "

" Good. " the ou replied and walked off.

Vegeta sighed and rubbed his temples, " I really gotta get more rest; its no good for me drifting off in the middle

of training. " he then smirked, " Ah well at least I have a few new tricks to show off to Kakarrotto. " he boasted, striding

down the hall back to his room, " He'll be so proud of me that incredible perfect peasant! " the ouji clasped his hands

together as he opened the door to his room, " Oh Kaaaaah-ky? "

The ouji stood there infront of the empty bedroom, his eyes bugging out of his head, " K--Kakarrotto? " he squeaked

out, waddling inside. Vegeta shuddered, " It's so cold. So very cold. " he walked up to the bed and lifted the sheets off,

" Kakarrotto? " the ouji dashed to the bathroom, " Kakarrotto? " he then ran to the refridgerator, " KAKARROTTO? "

" ... " ▫

" Ehhhhh, he's not here. WHY ISN'T HE HERE! " Vegeta's tail started to thrash behind him in nervous shock, " Oh God,

he wouldn't actually LEAVE me would he? Kakay wouldn't do that right? He cares too much about me, right? " the ouji started

to ask his tail, frightened, " But if he cares why can't I sense him? I can't feel his ki ANYWHERE on the entire planet! "

" ▫Blip▫ " Goku finished his teleporation back to the large dining room two floors up.

" KAKARROTTO! " the ouji gushed, teleporting after him.

" Wow...such a large dining room. " Bulma murmured, " I don't think I've ever seen one this big, and I've seen a lot

of unusually-sized rooms. "

" Umm, miss, are you oh-kay in there? " Nappa lightly tapped on Bulma's helmet.

" I'm fine. The only reason I'm wearing this is so I can walk under your planet's heavy gravity. " she sweatdropped.

" Oh. "

" ... " ▫

" How, how are you going to eat, use the bathroom, and sleep in that? "

" The first two I have solutions to, the last one...I'll figure it out while I'm helping set up. "

" Huh. " Nappa blinked.

" You certainly created this in a hurry. " Raditsu mumbled in disbelief at Bulma's suit.

" Oh I've had it for a while, its, just not supposed to be made for extended use so I didn't think to come here with

it before. " she explained.

" Geez is this the biggest spoon you've ever seen or what? " Chi-Chi muttered in surprise as she opened a box

containing silverware at the other end of the room. The spoon was a good four sizes bigger than the average spoon on Earth.

" Food is a very important part of saiyajin culture you know. " Turles said, flipping page, " By the way, hanging

out over here to avoid being seen and shipped back to the blue planet? "

" The only way I'm leaving this place is with Goku-san in tow. " she promptly replied, " And I don't like how the

Ouji hasn't been around lately. "

" I agree, its no good for either one of them. Why if this schedule of Vegeta-san's worsens even further he or

Kakarrotto will surely explode. " Turles flipped another page.

" Oh you're a great romantic aren't you. " she sarcastically remarked while rolling her eyes at him, sickened.

Turles sweatdropped, " I didn't mean LITERALLY explode from the inside out. I meant in an emotional sense. Winter on

Bejito-sei is severe--however its fairly short due to the two suns, meaning mating season is just around the corner. "

" Are YOU going out "hunting" that season too the way Goku-sa's brother is? "

Turles flipped a page.

" ... " ▫

" They'll leave one another quite the empty shell if Vegeta-san continues to avoid and Kakarrotto continues to

hesitate. " he replied.

" I guess that's a "none of your business", huh. " Chi-Chi folded her arms.

" What's this? A videogame? " Bardock picked up the controller Goku was holding.

" Um, sort of. " Goku laughed nervously, then paused, " Toussan how do you know what a videogame is? "

" Huh? Oh Vegeta told me after I heard him bragging to Raditsu about how well he does on them. "

" ▫Knock▫knock▫knock▫? "

" Oh? " Goku walked up to the door and opened it to see a shell-shocked Vegeta standing in there, " Gasp! Veggie! "

The ouji sniffled, then promptly glomped the larger saiyajin tightly, " KAKARROTTO DON'T YOU DARE DO THAT AGAIN! "

he wailed.

Goku closed the door behind him to spare Vegeta's ego so the others couldn't hear the little ouji's ever-growing

sobs, " Veggie what're you talking a-bout? "

He looked upward at Goku, " When I came back from my training this morning I went to our room to show you all the

new things I learned and you weren't there! It was so cold and lonely inside I couldn't stand it! "

" Well now Veggie knows how I feel when I wake up every morning. "

The ouji paused, uneasy.

" No Veggie do not think I did this on purpose to scare you. Chi-chan brought me down here to help with something

this morning. I just figured with how long Veggie's training takes every morning that I'd be back to the room before Veggie."

Goku explained to him.

" Kakarrotto I'm sorry about all this. " the ouji nodded his head solumnly.

" You said you were going to let me come with you...but you went by yourself, you have been. "

" There are some things that I'm just not allowed to show anyone directly outside of the royal family. " he plopped

down on the ground, saddened, " And it's so idiotic because I WANT you to be there to support me! I want to show you

EVERYTHING I learned! Keeping it to myself is unbelievably dull! "

Goku sat down next to him, the invention in his lap.

" But. "

The larger saiyajin tilted his head towards Vegeta.

" I can show you this much. " he smiled, placing one of his palms overtop of the other. Vegeta concentrated and a

white and blue ki began to glow around his gloved hands. He slowly seperated them from one another to expose two small

objects made out of ki. It was a tiny ki version of himself and the peasant beside him; both wearing gi's. Vegeta's

concentration hardened and Goku gasped in awe as the two ki saiyajins began to spar with one another across the field that

was the ouji's right hand. Soon the tiny ki creatures were locked in a kamehameha garriku ho blast-battle. The two attacks

exploded upon one another, brightening the "arena". The attacks faded to reveal the two ki saiyajin standing there. They

held hands and bowed to Goku like actors finishing a performance, then faded away as well along with the blue and white aura

surrounding Vegeta's hands. The frustration on Vegeta's face disappeared and he opened his eyes to face an astonished Goku.

" You are the most extraordinary person I have ever known. " Goku whispered, amazed.

Vegeta flushed and gave a modest smile.

The larger saiyajin reached over and held the smaller one tightly.

" ▫Prrrrrrrrr▫ "

" Hey guys! Are you going to just sit there purring all afternoon or come help unpack? " Bulma stuck her head out

through the doorway along with Kinto'un.

" GAH? :OHMYGOD THAT'S RIGHT! I'm sitting here purring/hugging Kakarrotto in semi-public: " the little ouji

panicked, leaping to his feet as steadily as he could given the situation, " ...Wait, what are you WEARING? " Vegeta said

flatly to Bulma, who sweatdropped.

" Its a depressurizing suit so I can safely walk around in 10x earth's gravity. " she replied.

" Cookie? " the ouji held one out.

" Aww! " she smiled, pressing a button on her suit and then taking the cookie. Bulma pressed another to open her

helmet so she could eat.

" How come your head didn't just explode from the "intense gravity" just now? " Vegeta asked.

" Hm? Oh, the button I pressed prior to opening my helmet enlarged the range of depressurization to about 10 feet so

I'm able to do things like eat and use the bathroom. "

" Huh. " the ouji scratched the side of his head, " So, how've you been doing? "

" Alright. " Bulma shrugged, finishing her cookie, " Things have been really hectic lately though. We miss you guys

back home so much. You're a relief from the daily grind. "

" Well do not worry! We'll come back soon. Probably by Christmas, right Veggie? " Goku looked over at him.

The small saiyajin sighed, " Its not that simple, Kakarrotto. "

Goku frowned.

" I mean, I can TRY, but...well I'll try. That's the best I can offer you right now. "

The larger saiyajin snuggled up to him, " Bulma do you think you and the others can take care of the rest of things

without me? "

" Sure, you two have fun. " she happily ushered them off, ducking back inside.

Kinto'un followed Goku and Vegeta down the hall. The little cloud lightly poked the ouji.

" Hm? "

" Oh! I see? Hey Veggie Kinto'un wants to know if you'd like a ride since your morning was so very exhausting. "

Goku offered.

" Umm, Kakarrotto I can't really--ooph! " Kinto'un slid underneath the ouji and caught him, " Ah...huh, what do you

know. I must be too tired to think evil or dirty thoughts. " he blinked, surprised, then smiled, " This is nice. "

" :) " Goku continued along beside them.

" Kakarrotto, you coming too? " Vegeta pointed to the cloud.

" Ah-- " Goku paused, recalling what had happened to him when he tried to board moments earlier and decided it would

be in his best interests to avoid doing anything that would cause the ouji to freakout, " No thanks Veggie, you just lay out

and relax oh-kay? "

" Oh-kay. " the ouji nodded, content as he closed his eyes and prepared to doze off.

" Well, what do you think? " Brolli said as he showed Cilantra around his Capsule house, which was now neatly

stationed in the city outside the royal castle.

" It's a wonderful home, Burori-kun. " she replied, looking around the kitchen.

" You're free to come visit anytime you like. "

" Well I'm flattered. " she chuckled, " Of course I'll come visit. " Cilantra checked her watch, " I really should be

going soon though. My shift starts in a half hour. "

" Hai Kaasan. " the densetsu replied, sitting down at his kitchen table.

" Here you go. " she held out a green scouter.

Brolli stared at it.

" So we can keep in touch. "

" Cool. " he took it, " You know I've never had a scouter before.. "

" Really? Figures Paragus wouldn't even let you in on something as basic as that; " she muttered, " anyway its easy

to use. This is the on button, this is the communications link, and this one scans for nearby ki readings. The dial is for

adjusting the range of ki and volume for when its being used as a phone. " Cilantra explained, " I have to go now,

Burori-kun. See you later. " she smiled, heading for the door, " OH! " his mother paused, " By the way there's going to be a

ball tommorow night at the castle, see if you can make it; they'll be lots of free food. Byebye! " she waved and left the

house.

" A Ball.. " the densetsu trailed off, lifting his scouter up infront of his head. He put it on and almost-instantly

went dizzy from the mixture of one eye seeing the usual array of colors while the other had a violent green overlap, " WAAH!"

Brolli took it off and thunked the scouter onto the kitchen table while his eyes readjusted themselves, " What a viciously

evil device! How can anyone see with that on? "

" Sorta-niichan, wake up. " Vejitto knocked on the side of Veku's sleeping head as if it were a door,

" Sorta-niichan? "

Gogeta looked around at the booth, " I wonder if he's been living at his booth? I do not see a house anywhere,

Jitto. " he said, concerned.

" Hmmm? " Veku slowly opened his eyes, tired. He sat up, rubbing them, " Oh, you two again. "

" Sorta-niichan we would like to a-pologize for inadvertently freaking you out the other day. " Vejitto said while

Gogeta nodded vigorously, " And so as to seal our we're-sorryness, we offer you this Muffin of Apology! "

Gogeta whipped out a large, 3-foot-tall muffin, " It's chocolate-chip! " he grinned.

Veku stared in bewilderment at the super-sized pastry, " ... "

" ... " ▫

" Happy New Year! " Vejitto threw random-colored confetti into the air.

" ▫FWEEEEP▫ " Gogeta tooted a New-Years horn.

" Wow does my head hurt. " Veku muttered, confused.

" Would you like to come with us back to the castle? Goggie and I have our own room and I'm sure you can share with

us for the time being. " Vejitto offered.

" It would be a place for you to sleep while laying down instead of sitting on a box and you can bring your melons

with you. " Gogeta added, " There's lots of fridges there to store them so they don't go bad. "

A lone melon sat there amongst the group with an "evil" mustache and a cape and hat on while rotting-melon smell

wafted off the top of it.

" I guess a fridge would be nice. " Veku pondered, unaware of the "evil" melon, who had grabbed another smaller

melon and began tying it to the middle of the road despite it not having any limbs, being a fruit and all.

" Mwahahahaha! " the melon laughed.

" No! NO! Help me! Help! " the other melon cried out while Vejitto and Gogeta watched.

" MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAH---▫SPLAT!▫ " a hover-car hit the "evil" melon with its bumper and missed the smaller one

completely due to the car hovering easily half a foot above the ground. The smaller melon pulled itself to its feet and

dashed back over to the pack.

One of the melons picked up the evil one's mustache and used it as toupee.

" Alright. I'll come with you. " Veku decided, getting up. He used a net to net his melons together and promptly

closed up his booth, " I wasn't really making any money with this anyway. To be honest I think the reason I found so many of

these lying around is that they were out of season. "

" HOORAY! We have another sibling now! Sorta! " Gogeta cheered excitedly.

" Saiyajin don't "cheer". " Veku sweatdropped.

" Haha! You are so behind. " Vejitto laughed as they headed up the road back to "home".

" HOOOOA! HA HA YAAAAH! " Vegeta struck several semeish poses as he bounced around his bedroom in the early morning

hours. The ouji was ever-so-slowly starting to get used to waking up before 10am. He wandered back over to the bed in his

armor and cape and sat on the side, " Huh. I wonder where Toussan is. He should've been here an hour ago. " Vegeta pondered.

The ouji took his armor off so he could properly lay on his side on the bed. The ouji yawned and pulled his cape over the

side of him like a blanket.

" You're still here. "

" Hn. " the ouji looked over his shoulder to see Goku smiling happily at him.

" I'm glad. "

" Well, of course I am you don't think I wouldn't care enough to stay here with my favorite peasant you know. " the

smaller saiyajin boasted, puffing his chest out.

Goku sat up behind him, " Hee- Veggiesosilly. Don't you know today is special? "

" Umm...it is? " Vegeta blinked.

The larger saiyajin eagerly nodded.

" Is, it a platonic kind of special. "

" Yup! "

Vegeta grinned, " Then I'm elated to hear such wonderful news, Kakarrotto! " he took the peasant's hands.

Goku let go and gave the ouji a hug, " Mmm.. "

" So..as long as I'm here how would you like to go fish this morning? " Vegeta asked.

" Actually, I was thinking Veggie and I could do something a little different today. " the larger saiyajin said with

a slight tease in his voice.

The ouji flushed slightly, " W--what kind of "different"? "

" Oh, Veggie knows. "

" I do? "

" Yeah. You know, we could go ad-venturing around the planet today. "

" I, suppose that'll be alright. " Vegeta shifted around, " Don't you want to take your bath though first? "

" Veggie doesn't have to worry about that, I'll just clean up on the way. " he nodded cheerfully, getting out of

bed.

" Why are you already dressed? "

" ♥ "

:Kakarrotto's PLOTTING something: the ouji blinked, thinking it over:Wh--what would Kakarrotto possibly be

plotting that would necessitate taking us far away from the castle: " Kakarrotto, you-- "

" --come with me Veggie! It'll be fun! " Goku pulled him up off the bed and towards the window in the ouji's room.

The large saiyajin thrust the window up with excitement, then whistled out the window, " KINTO'UN! "

The orange cloud zipped up to him, doing well under the 10x gravity. Goku hopped on and this time stayed there,

" Veh-gee! " he called over to him.

" ... " the ouji stared at him, " Uhh.. "

Goku reached over and pulled the smaller saiyajin onto Kinto'un as well, " Isn't this nice Veggie? "

" I suppose. " Vegeta looked utterly confused.

The larger saiyajin pulled the smaller one closer, " Kinto'un let's get out of here and go see Veggie's beautiful

planet up close! "

The cloud nodded and blasted off into the sky, carrying the two saiyajin with it.

As soon as they were out of the average sight-range, the door to Vegeta's room squeaked open.

" I know the plan was for ototochan to DISTRACT Vegeta while we set up for the party, but don't think that was a

little extreme? " Raditsu asked, walking inside.

" Hey, the little "adventure" thing was Kakarrotto's idea. Not a single one of us helped him come up with that. "

Turles replied.

" You actually sound AMUSED at it. " the taller saiyajin sweatdropped.

" I am. " he set down the box full of decorations, " Always nice to see him show off that cleverly disguised

brilliant mind of his. "

" Was decorating Vegeta's room ALSO Kakarrotto's idea? " Raditsu folded his arms, skeptical.

" No actually. This part's all me. " the evil type-3 saiyajin smirked.

" Wonderful. " Raditsu sarcastically replied, " Well if you don't mind, my job of unlocking the door for you is done

so I'll be heading back to help Mr. and Mrs. Oujisama with the remaining decorations. "

" Aw, don'tcha wanna stay here and help me? " Turles grinned.

" I would if I weren't so leery of whatever is in that "box" of yours. " he semi-shuddered and left the room.

" ... " Turles sat there, then shrugged, " Ah well, I don't see what's so frightening about a few birthday

decorations. " he took a bottle of champagne out of the box along with some fancy glasses and scented candles.

" ... " ▫

Chi-Chi sat there backwards on one of the chairs in the dining hall, staring up at Veku, " And, you are... "

" He's our sorta-niichan, Chi-Chi. " Vejitto explained.

" Yeah, don't you remember, he was born 4 years ago tommorow. " Gogeta replied, " On Halloween..remember... "

" I like what you did to your hair, Chi-Chi. " the experiment motioned to her.

" Aw, why thank you. I've kept it down since we rescued the Ouji from Brolli. " she replied, delighted, " Geez, this

is disturbing I think I would've remembered a NICE demi-Ouji. "

" I wasn't exactly in the nicest mood the last time you saw me. " Veku put his hand behind his head.

" OHMYGOD! " Bulma gawked, pointing at Veku from behind.

" Oi, Bulma? " he looked over his shoulder at her.

" ... " Bulma's jaw hung open.

" Wow, looks like Bulma sure remembered you huh, sorta-niichan. " Gogeta grinned.

Bulma quickly took Veku's hands to compare them, " They're...the same size now. "

" Yeah, Enma fixed me back up. He even gave me a job on Snake Way. " Veku replied.

" Huh. What do you know. " she muttered in surprise.

" Where's Goku and Vegeta? " he asked.

" You mean Toussan and Mommy? " Vejitto tilted his head to the side.

Veku laughed nervously, " I, don't feel comfortable calling them that. They're far from being anything more than even

reluctant friends. "

Chi-Chi's face went blank, " Where have you BEEN the last three---ohmygod! " she gasped, suddenly realizing it, " You

were created BEFORE the "Kaka-War". "

" The what? "

" You were created before the Ouji and Goku-san started their maddening "platonic" relationship. " she said in

amazement.

" How are we ever going to fill him in on 4 entire years of knowledge? " Bulma exclaimed.

" We could make a clipshow. " Vejitto raised his hand.

" A very compressed clipshow. " Gogeta raised his as well.

" Where are they? " Veku restated his original question.

" Oh, Goku-sa took the Ouji someplace to keep him distracted until this evening so we can all surprise the Ouji with

this Birthday Party. " Chi-Chi explained.

" But...doesn't Vegeta want to kill Goku in order to satisfy his inferiority complex? " Veku blinked.

Chi-Chi stared at him incrediously, " And suddenly I'm aware of just how completely insane the last four years have

been. "

" Poor uninformed sorta-niichan. " Gogeta shook his head, " Toussan does not want to kill Kaasan. They both luv each

other very very much. "

" Ah hah...ah hahahaha. " Veku laughed in disbelief, " No way. Right? "

" That was the halloween where Son-kun went as Jaws, wasn't it? " Bulma played what she could remember of that

halloween back in her mind.

" Yeah, man Goku-sa taunted the Ouji good about that pink disaster Bura forced him into wearing. " Chi-Chi sighed in

fond nostalgia, " I miss the days back when Goku-sa would taunt and tease the Ouji for fun the way I do instead of sleeping

in the Ouji's Ouji-bed and taking bubblebaths with him. " she ended bluntly and annoyed.

" What? " Veku looked as though his brain were about to explode from the drastic information.

" Maybe you guys should take things a little slower with, Veku was it? " Raditsu walked up to them.

" RADITSU? YOU'RE ALIVE? " Veku gasped in shock.

" I've BEEN alive a good couple years now. " he sweatdropped, then turned to the others, " Like I said, take it slow.

If he's half pre-"Kaka-War" Vegeta there's a good chance he'll snap if you give him the entire story right away without a

long detailed explination of things; you know, like their tails getting married. That sort of thing. "

" VEGETA AND GOKU'S TAILS ARE MARRIED? " the experiment nearly had a heart attack.

Raditsu slapped his hands over his own mouth, " ? "

" Way to go Raditsu. " Chi-Chi sweatdropped.

" Maybe I should sit down. " Veku said, feeling a little disoriented.

" That's a good idea. " Bulma helped him to a chair, " By the way whenever you're not busy and on Earth would you

mind me running a few tests on your molecular structure? I'm curious as to how Enma managed to stablize you. "

" You have such a wonderful bedside manner, doctor. " Veku rolled his eyes.

" ... " Bulma stood back up, partly annoyed, " Oh yeah, that's pre-Kaka-War Vegeta. "

" HEY! " Bardock called from the other side of the room, " Can one of you get Bejito for me? He put the "fancy"

silverware out and I have no idea where to put these extra utencils but he does. "

" Where is he, I'll get him. " Bulma raised her hand.

" The kitchen in the back. The main one. You know where that is? "

" I can find it? " she offered.

" I'll take you there Bulma. " Raditsu offered.

" Aw, how very nice of you to-- "

" --I know Turles is probably finishing up whatever he was doing in Ototochan and Vegeta's room and I'm trying to

avoid him for various reasons so I'd rather not be here when he gets back. "

" ...offer. " she finished, sweatdropping.

/dl

" Its raining. " Vegeta stated as he stood there in the middle of the forest with his gaze to the sky. A few

thunderclouds had precipitated the two saiyajins' entering the forest and it was just now beginning to rain.

" That's oh-kay Veggie, we'll find a cave somewhere and just wait it out. " Goku said cheerfully, taking a deep

breath, " This is so much better than staying inside that castle all day, dontcha think? "

" Not if its going to rain. I don't want to get my royal armor soaking wet. And my cape! It can't take a downpour. "

the ouji exclaimed.

" Well like I said Veggie and I will just have to look for a cave. "

Vegeta shifted around, following Goku deeper into the woods, " And what if we can't find one? "

" Then I will MAKE one. "

" ... " the ouji flushed admiringly for a moment, only to let out a yelp as the rain turned into an all-out storm,

" WAHHH! " thunder crashed in the distance.

Goku scooped the smaller saiyajin up and made a mad dash through the woods before pausing to spot a rock formation

that looked as close to a cave as he could possibly find out here. The large saiyajin hung a u-ey and ran to the edge of the

cave, cautiously making his way in just enough so that he and Vegeta were out of the rain, " There. See Veggie I told you I

would find a nice place for us to stay out of the rain. " Goku set the ouji down.

Vegeta stood up and stared out at the heavy downpour, " Thanks Kakarrotto. "

" Veggieswelcome. "

The smaller saiyajin sighed, " Maybe we should've just stayed at my house afterall. "

" Aw, nonsense, Veggie. " Goku started to take his gi top off.

" W--what are you doing? " Vegeta asked, starting to flush again.

" What's Veggie think I am doing? " the larger saiyajin continued to further disguard his clothing. Vegeta looked

away as to avoid seeing anything he didn't want to lay claim to having seen in private. Goku flashed him..a grin, " I'm

going to take a shower! " he gave the ouji a thumbs-up and dashed out of the cave and into the rain.

" GAH! KAKARROTTO WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE-- " the ouji started to freak out.

" Come on Veggie! " Goku called over to him while rinsing his hair off, " Its fun! You'll like it I promise! You

like showers, they're "semeish"--whatever that means--, re-member? "

" ... " Vegeta stood there for a moment, " I can't believe I'm doing this! " he exclaimed, taking his upper armor

off, then his boots and gloves.

" HOORAY! YAY-HAY! " Goku cheered, bounding through the rain.

A moment later a smaller figure emerged from the cave and wrapped an enormous leaf around his waist to cover

himself. Vegeta ran head-first at Goku while letting out a battle cry only to slip when he was a mere foot away and knock

them both into the mud, " OOOF! "

" Waaaah- " Goku sat up, dizzy, then smiled at Vegeta who pulled himself back into a sitting position; the front of

the ouji's body splattered with mud. Goku reached over and picked a blue ladybug-like creature off the ouji's nose and

contently showed it to him.

Vegeta brushed the mud off his face with a swift swipe of the hand.

The ladybug flew off Goku's finger and into the distance. He turned back towards the ouji and smirked. As if in

equal knowledge each of the saiyajin grabbed a handful of mud at the same time. Goku and Vegeta pulled back while already

thinking ahead to how they would dodge one other's attack and lobbed the mudballs into the air.

" ▫SPLAT▫! "

/dl

" Ahhhh, that was nice, huh Veggie. " Goku stretched. The rain had stopped and the two were making their way back to

the cave, damp and smelling like the woods around them.

" I have to admit it was fairly enjoyable. " the ouji smirked back, content, " I'll just get my--- " he paused,

stopping in his tracks.

" Hm? " Goku looked over at him, confused.

" Kakarrotto...where are our clothes? "

" NANI! " Goku gasped, " What does Veggie mean we left them right at the edge of the cave? " he dashed over to it,

shocked that their clothes were gone. It was then Goku sensed a ki inside the cave. He formed a ki-ball over his right palm

and wandered inside only to spot a large, bear-like creature now in the back of the cave and using Goku and vegeta's clothes

as a pillow, " Oi...it looks like we're going to have to pull them out from under him. " he sweatdropped.

" What? " the ouji walked up to Goku and peered over his shoulder to see the beast, " What is that thing? "

" Veggie doesn't know! " Goku gasped.

The ouji sweatdropped, " I was SEVEN! "

" Oh yeah. "

" ... " ▫

" I guess we should just try to pull our clothes out of there. " Goku surmised.

" Well I'm not going back home with the both of us naked. " Vegeta indignantly held tight to his leaf.

" Haha..yeah, it would probably be a lil difficult to explain this to everybody. " the larger saiyajin chuckled.

The ouji stared at him in shock, " A "lil" difficult! Try completely impossible! " he gulped.

" Aww, Veggie calm down, it'll all be alright. " Goku bent down and slowly started to pull Vegeta's uniform out. He

tossed it quietly to the ouji after doing so, then pulled his own out as well, " See? That was easy. "

" Y--yeah. " Vegeta started to put his briefs back on.

" RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! " a roar suddenly cried out from behind them. The two saiyajin turned to see

the animal on all fours and bearing its huge teeth.

" WOW, you sure are bigger than I thought. " Goku pondered only to have Vegeta grab him by the arm and blast them

both out of the cave and into the trees above, " WHOA! "

" Here. " the ouji handed Goku his gi, " How could you possibly just stand there unaffected? Did you SEE that

creature at all! "

" He did not look too tough Veggie. I mean I've hunted down animals that size before. "

" True, but you don't know if that thing was poisonous or contained a disease of some type. " Vegeta said, concerned

as he started to get the rest of his clothes back on.

" Well then, I guess that makes Veggie my hero. " the larger saiyajin chirped.

The little ouji grinned widely as he puffed his chest out, " Hai, I don't like to brag but...oh who am I kidding I

LUV to brag--oof! "

Goku hugged him tightly, " Mmmmm. "

" ... " ▫

" I uh..I guess we should be heading back home now. " Vegeta started to dart his attention in every other non-Kaka

direction.

" If Veggie says so. " the larger saiyajin let go and finished getting dressed as well, " Veggie wanna fly there,

or teleport, or use Kinto'un? "

" Hnn...I think I'll fly. "

" Oh-kay! " Goku stood up, " Race you back! " he blasted off into the sky.

" WHAT! " the ouji exclaimed, then huffed as he flew after him, " Kakarrotto that's not fair! "

/dl

" UGH! Where is he? " Vegeta stubbornly pouted, flying back towards the castle, :Maybe he flew ahead of me on

purpose. It felt like he was plotting something ever since he woke up this morning. A purely platonic plot, I'm sure. But

STILL..: the ouji landed on the front porch and flipped open a plastic flap to the right of the door. He took off his glove

and pressed his right hand against it to be scanned. The doors before him unlocked and Vegeta went inside. The halls seemed

empty as he strolled down them, adjusting his cape. Vegeta turned a corner only to see Goku standing there further down the

hall, smiling at him and wearing his bodyguard uniform.

Goku held his hand out towards the ouji, " Follow me, Veggie-sama. " he contently said in saiyago.

" ... " Vegeta stood there, blinking, " Its a dream. It was all a dream. " the ouji beamed, " THAT'S why everything

from my father not showing up to take me training to Kakarrotto and his little kaka-plot felt so off! It has all been but a

dream. " he said confidently, walking up to Goku and taking his hand, " You're even perfect in my dreams, ya know that? "

" Veggiesoverysilly. " Goku laughed as they continued down the hall, " You're not dreaming. "

" Of course I am. Today's series of events is too off to have been reality. It also explains why I was unable to

recognize that bear-like creature. It doesn't exist either! Merely a figment of my overactive imagination. " Vegeta said

proudly, " This is why I feel safe holding your hand out here, even if the hallways are oddly vacant. Its because its a

dream, Kakarrotto. "

" ... " Goku looked back at him, torn at how to respond to that. He smiled instead, " Veggie worries too much. "

The ouji blinked back at him as they continued on before stopping infront of the dining hall doors.

Goku reached for the door as he let go of Vegeta's hand, " Hey Veggie? "

" Yeah? "

" I got somethin' to tell you. "

Vegeta looked up at him curiously.

" This isn't a dream. " he flung the door open to reveal a gloriously decorated room filled with people. The scent

of familiar extravagant foods floated past the ouji's nose.

" SURPRISE! " Bejito called to him.

" Happy Birthday, Vegeta. " Ruby added smiling.

" "Happy"... " the ouji murmured in shock. He gazed up to see a "Happy 40th Birthday" banner hanging near the

ceiling, " OHHH! "

" If you were sort of wondering where I was this morning.. " the ou started out. Nappa came in to view, pushing a

cart containing a large, 5-level cake, " ..the icing's chocolate, but the inside's got strawberry in it. Your, bodyguard told

me about it, he helped me out quite a bit in the choice of foods. "

Vegeta turned back towards Goku, the ouji still standing in the doorway and Goku holding the door, " Kakarrotto. "

The large saiyajin knelt down on one knee and took the smaller one's hands. Goku smirked up at him, " Happy Birthday

to you, my high prince. "

" ? " the ouji froze, bright red with his lower half all but turned to jello, " Ah... "

" ♥ "

" ..a...ah... "

Goku tilted his head, " VeggieVeggie? " he said in english.

" I can't feel my legs. " Vegeta said, off in the distance.

" Ooooo? " Goku started to poke one of them. The ouji flushed further, if that was even possible, " I am sure Veggie

will be just fine. " he got up and led the smaller saiyajin inside.

" Oh come on Ouji are you coming in or not? " Chi-Chi exclaimed, annoyed.

Vegeta smirked, " Of course I am, I was just in the middle of a private conversation with my favorite peasant whom

you just happened to interupt. "

" Heee- " Goku grinned widely as they entered the room.

" Oh yes, I'm so SORRY, Ouji. " she rolled her eyes.

Vegeta contently sat down at the head of the table, Goku pulling out the chair for him and causing the Ouji to

subconsiously let a purr rip only to halt himself halfway through, embarassed.

" ALRIGHT! " the ouji proudly announced, pumping his fist in the air, " Let's bring on the food! Food for everybody!

And something really special for my wonderful "bodyguard" here! " he grinned widely.

" Calm down some of its still hot ya know. " Raditsu sweatdropped handing a plate of food to Vegeta, who rubbed his

hands together at the sight of the food.

Goku's plate was set down before him as well.

The two saiyajin looked back between one another as if they were going into battle. Vegeta ripped his gloves off and

Goku his own and they dug into the decadent dishes of which there would be many more courses to come.

Turles sat there several seats away, twirling a can of whipped-cream around in his hand, " And of course, dessert. "

7:11 PM 11/11/2005
THE END

Goku: YAY! Happy ending!

Vegeta: YAY! Happy ending where I retain some level of semeness!

Chuquita: Happy Belated Birthday, Veggie :)

vegeta: (smirks) Indeed.

Chuquita: And now for the replies!

To Hakura0: Well, this fic at least. Usually they're only four chapters. I think this time the extra-chapter is due to me

trying to cut down on the size of the chapters. True, he's very behind on everything. There'll be more with them in the

next fic.

To tea: Glad you liked it! Veggie's a very good cook.

To Hyper Kid: Glad you liked those parts. Veggie's not going to forget his powers. He could potentially do damage to Turles,

but Goku would be upset if Veggie started to do something mean like that.

To Zogeta: Hi! Sparking's story mode is very hard. Especially the "survive in 60 seconds" parts. I find it a lot easier to

have to defeat an enemy instead. Scouter Veggie's so cool! I can't wait to unlock him! He does want a happy ending. Veggie

will have lots of new powers. :) Veggie would definately pass out if Goku were to do that.

To Nuki: Welcome back! Hope you enjoy Sparking! Yes they have. :) I remembered Veku a little while ago and figured I could do

something with him. I haven't really decided how long Veggie's training will last. He can definately afford that spaceship

now; even get it ready ahead of time.

To majinbulgeta: He is sad about waking up without Veggie. Hope you like the Veggie party!

To Seto Kaiba's My Babe: Glad you liked it!

To Little-monkey-girl: Glad you liked it. If you mean when he was training, Veggie's mom was in the room with him. The

barrier is only outside the room. Well with how Veggie reacts when he gets a huge power increase, and with one of those

powers allowing him power over certain peasants, I can see how that would slightly unease Turles.

To SupersayiankingTommy: Glad you liked it! They'll start looking for female saiyajins once its spring on Bejito-sei. Brolli

had a some time in this chapter, and he'll show up more often in future fics. Glad you like him.

To Saiba: Hai, Veggie has to work on maintaining his in-chargeness. Glad you liked it. Goodnight!

To Afrodite: So happy you liked that line. Hot springs with saiyajins are fun! I might write them using the hot springs

some other time. Raditsu needs some rest.

To rockerkid4988: Glad you liked it!

To Nekoni: The review box won't open? That's odd. Yup! Its Veggie's birthday :)

Goku: (hands Veggie some cake)

Vegeta: (sweatdrops)

Goku: YAY! Beverages for me 'n Veggie! (opens the champeign) (pours some for Veggie)

Vegeta: (takes a sip and purrs) (flips through one of the books and freezes in place, his face bright red from both what he's

viewing and the alcoholic beverage)

Goku: (peers over at pages) I am inspired! (grin)

Chuquita: And that's the end of the fic! (to audiance) Expect either a special 5-year-anniversary oneshot after this or

the start of the Christmas Special!

Vegeta: A Christmas special already? (cocks an eyebrow)

Chuquita: Don't you remember what happened last year when I started it in December? The fic ran into Janurary.

Vegeta: Ah...OH YEAH! (nod) Now I remember.

Chuquita: And now I have to get back to working on my geography report.

Goku: Goodluck:)

Vegeta: Yes, goodluck with that. (sweatdrops)

Chuquita: (to audiance) See you sometime next week!
