And I
Chi-Chi sat on her throne next to her father's and listened to a villager's problem. She really didn't have to be there, but she went anyway to help her father. She was wearing a nice red dress a lot better than the one she wore yesterday. She rested her chin in her hand and stared at nothing. She heard her father clear his throat. She looked at him. He was giving her that 'that's not really princess like' look. She put her hands in her lap and looked at the man.
She sat there for what seemed like an entirety. Who knew what Bulma was doing, probably having fun or talking to the guys around the palace either way Chi-Chi wanted out of here and doing that. She looked at her father pleading that it would end soon. He just kept looking at the man and nodding at his concerns.
"We will try our best and thank you," said her father. The man bowed and left the room. Her father looked at her. "You may go now honey."
She smiled and kissed his cheek then stood up and walked out of the throne room and down the halls. She basically ran out of the palace and into the back. She scanned the area. Where was Bulma? She growled. This was going to take forever if she had to search the whole place.
Bulma's P.O.VBulma snuck behind Goku and tapped his shoulder. He turned around and looked at her. "Oh Lady Bulma…I didn't see you," he stated.
She smiled at looked at him. "Really Goku…what are you doing here in the stables this isn't your job last time I checked."
He sighed. "You caught me…Yamcha isn't here yet so I'm covering for him so he doesn't get fired," he stated.
"I won't tell I promise," she said putting a hand over her mouth.
"How is the princess?" Goku asked.
Bulma smirked. She knew he had a crush on Chi-Chi; he couldn't hide it. "She's fine, you should talk to her sometime today."
"That's good…why are you dressed like that M'lady?" he asked looking at her choice of clothing.
She was wearing slacks that went over her boots and a blue shirt. "I'm going riding," she stated. "Chi-Chi said I could ride her horse all I want as long as her horse isn't harmed in my activities," she stated.
"That would explain what you're doing here. So when did you get back?" he asked.
Bulma smiled. "Yesterday," she stated. She pouted. "Didn't you noticed me…or were you too busy staring at Chi-Chi?"
He blushed and had a goofy grin on his face. "It's not like that…you weren't outside at all…so I didn't see you," he stated.
"If that really was your answer you wouldn't be blushing," she stated. She crossed her arms over her chest. "Younger people always in denial."
"You're not that much older," Goku stated. He chuckled and added. "You sure don't act it."
"Well that was just rude," Bulma snapped. "Please bring me Chi-Chi's horse at once.'
Goku rolled his eyes and headed to a stable. 'She acts like she's in charge around here' He shook his head and opened the stable door and grabbing onto the ropes of a beautiful white mare.
Bulma smiled and ran up to the mammal. "What does Chi-Chi call this one?" she asked.
"The princess calls her Winter," Goku stated. "She's a great horse…you'll love her."
"I already do," Bulma stated swinging her legs over the saddle and pulled herself on top. She smiled down at Goku. "What do you think? Do we look good or what?"
"You're crazy," Goku said walking away. He opened the doors and waited for her to ride out.
She gently kicked Winter's side and they were off. She waved at Goku once they passed. "See ya." She faced forward and kicked Winter once more.
Goku shook his head. After all of the years he'd known her he still didn't get her on bit. He walked out of the stables and bumped into Chi-Chi. They both fell on their rears. Goku was the first to stand up. "I am so sorry Princess Chi-Chi," he stated helping her up.
Chi-Chi dusted off her dress. "It's fine…really, no harm done," she stated smiling ever so sweetly.
He grinned. "That's good…I would be in real trouble if there was," he stated rubbing the back of his head. "I should really watch were I'm going."
Chi-Chi giggled. "Have you seen Bulma anyway? I'm looking for her and really need to talk to her," she stated.
"Well she was just here…and she took Winter," Goku stated.
"She always has to take my best of everything. Well could you please bring me Wind I would be ever so grateful,"
Goku nodded and walked up to another stable and opened it. He grabbed the ropes of a gray mare and handed them to Chi-Chi. She smiled and sat her butt on the saddle and her legs hanged off the side so she wouldn't wrinkle her dress that her father gave her.
She smiled at him. "See you around Goku," she said before tapping her horse's rear to make her go. Chi-Chi stared at him till he was out of sight then turned her attention to in front of her.
A young man ran up to Goku; his hair to his shoulders, he was known as Yamcha. "Sorry I'm late, did anyone come here?" Yamcha asked.
Goku looked at him. "Bulma and Chi-Chi, that's it…next time try to call Krillin," Goku suggested.
Yamcha nodded. "Sure," he said picking up a pitchfork.
Chi-Chi's P.O.V
She rode by the creek and scanned the area. She didn't see her friend anywhere. She tapped Wind again and steered her right and went back up the hill faster than they did coming down. She looked around the open range. Where would Bulma go? She tapped Wind again.
She saw a horse riding up the hill. Chi-Chi's eyes widened it was her horse, Winter. She steered Wind the way Winter had came from. She stopped and hopped off of Wind.
"Bulma?" Chi-Chi asked. She walked around and couldn't see her friend. "Bulma?" Not hearing response was creeping her out. "BULMA!" she screamed at the top of her lungs. Birds shot out of the trees.
"Don't have to yell," she heard her friend's reply. Bulma hopped out of a tree. "What?"
Chi-Chi tried to keep her temper locked in. "Why didn't you answer me the first time?" she asked.
"Didn't hear you," was all Bulma said.
"Why was Winter running up the hill?" Chi-Chi asked.
"She did? She might have seen a snake or something. I left her over there tied up; I don't know how she got lose. Honest," Bulma stated.
Chi-Chi raised an eyebrow. "She can't untie herself…unless the rope wasn't tight? Bulma did you check it?" she asked putting her hands on her hips.
"Yes I did…twice…and there was no way to hell she could have gotten untied unless someone untied her or she is really strong," Bulma stated mocking Chi-Chi by putting her hands on her hips.
Chi-Chi and Bulma turned around the same time looking around the area. "Do you see anything?" Chi-Chi asked standing back to back with Bulma.
Bulma shook her head and gulped. "No I don't," she answered.
A bush rustled and something stepped on a branch.
"Hear that?" Bulma asked.
Chi-Chi nodded. "Yes I do…what do you think it is?" she asked.
"A wolf…a bear…a freak…a MONSTER!" Bulma shouted. She started laughing and looked at Chi-Chi. "Come on there is nothing out here."
Chi-Chi looked at Bulma. "One day there will be something out here and you're going end up being…" she started.
Bulma cut in. "You know if it's some kind of monster or wild animal a handsome hot hunk would probably save us from our doom. That would be so hot. Why don't those things happen to us anyway?"
Chi-Chi rolled her eyes. "Bulma be reasonable,"
Bulma watched after bush and after bush moved. "Ok maybe something is out here…I'm not scared though…" she stopped.
A rabbit hopped out of the bushes and ran passed them.
Bulma screamed and Chi-Chi just looked at her. "It's just a rabbit Bulma…come on," she ordered dragging Bulma to Wind.
"Hop up before I leave you here with the rabbit," Chi-Chi ordered.
Bulma looked at her and jumped up on the saddle, Chi-Chi was following after. Chi-Chi made a click-click sound and Wind started up.
Outside the palace
Goku was trimming the bushes in the garden and his friend Krillin walked up. "So are you done yet?" Krillin asked.
Goku looked at him. "Yeah almost…we could go get something to eat after this…what do you say?"
Krillin nodded. "Sounds good to me…hey listen…don't tell anybody, but I heard the king…he was talking to somebody," Krillin whispered.
"You were spying?" Goku asked in shock. He pulled his friend out of sight from any workers.
"No I wasn't spying I just over heard when I walked by when I was doing my shift, and I heard him talking to…" Goku cut him off.
"Krillin if this is going to get us in trouble I don't want to know. You always get us in trouble some way and I don't feel like getting arrested if this is personal and has nothing to do with us what so ever," Goku stated.
"I don't know if we'd get in trouble…but it's really important…our shifts probably will be doubled," Krillin stated mumbling the very last part.
"I already knew our shifts were doubled do you not check these things. Krillin what ever you know forget and don't let what ever it is bother you. It's probably a visitor," Goku said walking away.
"It's a visitor, but," again Krillin was cut off.
"Do you always have to be a worried wart?" Eighteen questioned. Eighteen had shoulder length blond hair tied up and was wearing a not so classy outfit.
Krillin looked at her. "I'm no worried wart…I am perfectly calm till the day arrives for our doom…I know whatever is one it's way is not good news, but hey don't listen to the midget with no hair because he doesn't know what he's talking about," he hissed.
"You're right he doesn't," Eighteen stated crossing her arms over her chest. "You need a LONG vacation."
Goku shook his head. "You know I am still working here…so can you please leave and meet me later?" he asked.
Eighteen looked at him questionably. "Sure…we'll go," she stated grabbing onto Krillin's shirt collar and dragging him along.
Goku picked up his clippers and walked towards the shed. He opened it up and threw them in there and shut the door locking it. He dusted his hands off and spotted Chi-Chi and Bulma riding towards the stables. He chuckled as he watched Chi-Chi push her friend off and gallop away. Bulma stood up and shouted, shaking her fists.
He put his hands in his pockets and walked over to the un-expecting Bulma. "So have a nice ride?" he asked grinning.
Bulma shot him a death glare that could scare the hair off of children. "Oh it was joyous, cause just look…my pants have grass stains and my father will flip! Oh I'm going to get her!" Bulma snapped. She walked away in a huff growling in annoyance.
Goku shook his head and walked towards the stables. He saw Chi-Chi hand Yamcha the ropes and turn to exit the way he was standing. She smiled and stopped in front of him.
"Good evening," she said sweetly. She walked by and headed to the palace. Goku watched her; he couldn't take his eyes off of her.
"Goku?" Yamcha questioned. He punched Goku's arm to snap his friend out of what ever he was in.
Goku looked at him. "Yeah?"
Yamcha grinned. "Nothing…you better head out…your shift was over last time I checked," he stated.
Goku nodded slowly and walked out of the stables and headed to the village.
Goku's house
Goku walked in his small cottage that he lived in for every year and every day of his life with his grandfather. "Gramps I'm home!" Goku shouted.
"In the living room!" He heard his grandpa shout.
Goku set his supplies on the floor and walked into the living room seeing his grandpa sitting on his chair and reading today's newspaper. "You old fool," Goku said chuckling a bit while shaking his head.
Hid grandfather looked at him. "So Goku how was your day?" he asked. Goku sat down on the sofa next to his grandpa's chair.
"The same…yours?" said Goku.
"Mine was good. Did you see any of your friends today?" Grandpa Gohan asked.
"Yeah…most of them They're glad you're better and they having a great time with the double shift. Do you know what is going on?" Goku asked.
Gohan shook his head. "Can't say I do. So shifts were doubled, eh? Hmm, probably another dude coming in to ask for Chi-Chi's hand. Poor girl…her father was lucky enough, but I don't think there isn't a man good enough for her hand. People have gotten more selfish than they were in my day," Gohan stated. "Shucks…in my day…the princess usually was forced to marry an older man…but not now."
Goku shook his head. Here goes his grandpa's 'back in my day' storied even though Goku never got tired of hearing them it's just they were so long. "You're days were way back then Grandpa," Goku stated standing up and stretching. "Call me down for dinner…later…I have to go meet up with Krillin," Goku stated.
Gohan nodded and looked back into his newspaper. "Oh would you looky there," he mumbled to himself.
At some place down in the middle of the village
Goku sat at a table waiting for Krillin and Eighteen who always had to be late. He huffed and buried his face in his arms resting on the table. He felt a slight tap on his shoulder and looked up.
Krillin was grinning like a two-year-old. "Hey…so how was the rest of your day?" Krillin asked pulling out a chair and sitting down.
"Fine…where's Eighteen?" Goku asked.
"She got grounded," Krillin answered.
"Again? How many times does she have to get grounded in a month to make her happy? I swear she's crazy about trouble like Bulma is crazy about tanning in the sun at the beach," Goku stated shaking his head in shame for his two friends.
"You forgot about the guys rubbing lotion on her," Krillin stated.
"I would rather like leaving that part out. So…going to do anything exciting? Cause I'm bored and have nothing to do," Goku stated yawning and stretching.
"You should take a nap," Krillin suggested. "It might make you feel better or whatever. Listen I really think you should know what's going on."
"Krillin I told you once and I'll tell you again…I don't care unless it has something to do that might hurt or kill someone," Goku said in a sleepy voice.
"Well how am I suppose to know if it does?" Krillin questioned. "I'm just one man that happens to be the shortest around not including your grandpa."
Goku chuckled. "We better get going…you know how the richies are," Goku mumbled.
"You mean the people who don't pay attention to use because we're not as rich as them and work in the palace?" Krillin questioned.
Goku nodded and stood up. "Why can't they all be like Chi-Chi or Bulma and at least not look at us like we're trash. At least the girls say more then 'shut up' or 'move out of the way' to us, they say nice things."
Krillin chuckled and put his hands behind his head as they began to walk. "You got that right. What's with them anyway? Just because they got money and don't get their hands dirty makes them better than us? If you ask me that's unfair," Krillin mumbled.
Goku nodded. "Oh well…it's just their stupid stuck up heads," Goku mumbled.
Palace
Chi-Chi walked to her room not in hurry what so ever. She saw many servants cleaning and walking around like crazy. She entered her room and shut the door. To her surprise there was a beautiful dress on her bed she went to it and picked it up. It was red one of her favorite colors. It was long and went to the floor and probably dragged behind her and it wasn't puffy it was very nice and had a V-back. She found a note by it and read it.
'To my lovely daughter Chi-Chi. I give you this gift to wear on a very important dinner party. It is not today and it is not tomorrow just to inform you. You've made me really proud and I can't till you are a beautiful like your mother was. You'll be a great one. Love your father.' It read.
She knew that meant they had important guests coming. It could be her grandmother and her father wouldn't tell her. He'd let her wait on her own to find out and surprise her. Well she was going to bug him to no end, even if it wasn't princess like, until he tells her who their visitor were.
Goku's house
Goku placed his plate in the sink and made his way to his room. He walked in the small room, but was perfect to him and sat on his bed. He stripped off till he was only in his boxers and laid on his bed. He stared up at the ceiling. He had a big day full of work for him tomorrow; well at least he got paid doing it instead of doing it for free. He turned onto his side and stared at his wall. He started to drift off not knowing that he was going to dream about a certain somebody.
