Sorry for the wait!

Chapter 8

I don't own DBZ

Vegeta had caught a ride home with Ashley and was only a little upset, since the thought of getting revenge almost balanced itself out with his anger. When he walked through the front door, he already expected it to be quiet, but even for a country plain home, it was still too quiet. 'Something's wrong.' He quickly went into the kitchen, hoping to cool himself off with some juice or hoping that there was still a slice of apple pie left from last night's meal, but when he walked into the kitchen, his uncle was sitting there in the kitchen, with an enraged look on his face. 'Something is wrong.' "Did Kakarot do something wrong?" Vegeta was suddenly amused. His cousin was such a goody good that he would love to see him get in trouble by his father.

Bardock didn't answer for a while. He took in a deep breath to calm himself down, and then answered calmly. "I agreed to let you stay here so you could try to build your character. Yer a good boy, I know you can be, when yer big proud head ain't in the way. Now there are some things in my house I will not allow, and curse'n is one of them. I heard you swore all up and down the halls at school. I don't want to hear anything of the sort again."

Vegeta was disappointed that his cousin wasn't in trouble. "You're not my father, and I'm too old to be pushed around by your ethics. I was in school, a place where your rules don't apply. None of the staff members had a problem with it, so it doesn't matter. It happened at school."

Bardock looked angrier. "Yer too big to have a switch to yer hide, but don't think that I can't punish ya. You did swear at school," he smirked "but ya gotta come home and deal with me."

"And what would you do? You can't do anything to me." Vegeta was definitely arrogant. He didn't care about his uncle's authority, especially not on a day that he was having. Vegeta decided that he was going to be cruel to the rest of the world. He let a smirk come to his face, and he made sure that it became a smile. He wanted to defy his uncle, and he wanted his uncle to realize that he wasn't his son and didn't have any custody over him.

Bardock surprisingly didn't appear to get angry at this. The strangest thing though, was that a smirk crept upon his face. "Oh, I can't do anything to you, can I?"

5 hours later...

'I'll get him for this! He can't do this to me! It's just not fair or right!' Vegeta was tired, sweaty, and hungry while he was trying to put up his uncle's fence up around his property. Vegeta didn't realize how much land that there was until he could smell his aunt's wonderful cooking while he was outside putting up a fence for five hours and had barely done anything. It was bad enough that he didn't really know what he was doing, but his bad back was making everything worse. "I would have rather taken the switch.

Inside of the Son's house, Goku and his mother were the only ones who felt sorry for Vegeta. Goku didn't plan on ever saving Vegeta any food ever, but he was actually considering saving him some this time. "Pa" asked Goku quietly "can cousin Ge-"

"No boy. Don't ask again, or you'll be help'n him."

Goku sighed. "Yessir."

Bardock sighed as well. "Maybe he oughta eat."

"Remember his back" stated his wife.

"Please Pa. I bet he real tired. I bet he won't swear again." Goku gave his father a sad, pleading look.

"That look don't work on me, Kakarot, but you can still get yer cousin. His supper's get'n cold."

Goku smiled "Thanks pa!" Goku left the table and ran outside to Vegeta. "Cousin Geta!"

Vegeta was holding his back. It hurt even worse than when he first woke up from the accident. "What do you want kid?"

"Pa said you could come and ear yer dinner! Ma cooked a real nice meal."

Vegeta looked around the property for a good long while and noticed that he had barely done anything. He worked so hard for so little. "I shouldn't be doing this. I should be paying someone to do this."

"I told you not ta swear. Pa don't like when people swear."

Vegeta grunted. "Man I'm starving. Put the tools away, kid." Vegeta stood up as straight as he could, trying hard not to let his pain show. He didn't' want tp give his uncle any satisfaction. 'I bet Bulma told him that I swore at school...a lot. She's got'n me good today, but I'll get her. It will take time, but I'll get her.'

After Vegeta had eaten his food, he decided that he need to sleep, but he set his alarm for 2:00 am. He needed to do some digging, and once he was done, his revenge would be complete. When it was the right time, Vegeta snuck into Goku's room and shook him until he woke Geta? Is that you? What are you do'n in my room? I'm try'n ta sleep. I need more sleep."

"Get up, stupid! We've got work to do."

"Not this early."

"Sure we do. We're going over to Bulma's house."

"For what?"

"For dirt. We've got to get her back for all of the things she's done to me. I have to hurt her some how. She's going to know not to ever mess with me again, or she'll suffer."

"But cousin Geta, I don't wanna-"

"Shut up! We're doing this. We're going to leave the house in ten minutes. We'll sneak out my window. Hurry up."

Goku lazily got out of the bed and threw on some dark clothes, which the darkest he had were dark blue, instead of the black that Vegeta told him. Vegeta was able to sneak out the window like a real pro, but it took Goku a long time to get down to the ground.

"Got a bike?"

"Sure. I got one, Raditz got one, and so does ma and pa. Why?"

"Well, we're not taking your dad's truck."

Goku noticed that Vegeta had a duffle bag full of materials. "What's in there?"

"Supplies. What's it matter to you? Just go get the bikes and be quiet about it!" Vegeta was so annoyed by his cousin. The only thing he was good for was the fact that he could boss Goku around, but other than that, he didn't want his little cousin around.

"Geta, I don't want my pa to be mad at me. I don't wanna get in trouble. He'll get me real good. I never snuck out before, so-"

"Kid, it's not that big of a deal. We can sneak out past your dad. There's cameras in my house and I can dodge those. You father's keen farmers senses are no match for me, now go get the bikes before I have no other choice but to kick your stupid head in, you dumb little kid!"

Goku sighed and did what his cousin told him to. He didn't know why, but he did. He didn't want to get in trouble with his father, but he didn't want Vegeta to be upset with him either. He wanted to get along with his cousin, since he wasn't too close to his brother, but things weren't really working out how he thought they would. After Goku did all of Vegeta's bidding, they rode on their bikes for a ridiculous distance until they finally reached Bulma's farm. Vegeta couldn't help but smirk. He already had some dirt on her, by some of the evidence he found just a little bit from her father's property. "Oh, this is great" stated Vegeta, looking at Yamcha's truck. "This is great."

"What? What does it mean?" asked Goku confused.

"You really are naive aren't you?" He sighed. "If you look closely, you can clearly see that this truck belongs to Yamcha, and yet he doesn't live her out on this dirt road, just off of Bulma's farm."

"So?"

"So? What do you mean so? Can't you figure it out? He must have snuck into Bulma's room and now their-"

Goku's eyes bucked. "No Way! Vegeta, Bulma wouldn't do that. Bulma and Yamcha aren't..." Goku scratched his head, trying to think.

"You see it now." Vegeta grunted, thinking about Yamcha over in her room and the things he was doing to her. "Disgusting." Vegeta reached into his duffle bag and pulled out a camera and started taking pictures of Yamcha's car. "I bet Bulma's dad doesn't' know about this."

"I would think not. Her dad would be so angry with her."

Vegeta opened up Yamcha's car, which was not locked for some unknown reason. "Idiot. He's asking for this." Vegeta reached into his duffle back and took out some kind of a device.

"What's that?" asked Goku worriedly.

"It's something I haven't done since I was ten. It's a little beneath me, but what can you do? It's a homemade, electrical stink bomb."

"But...why?" Goku began to panic. He didn't want anything to go too far. "What did Yamcha do?"

"My back, you idiot. That was a plan. It turned into an accident, but it was planned by him and Bulma."

Vegeta stuck the stink bomb in between the passenger seat and the driver seat. "This is so immature and stupid!"

"Then why are you doing this, cousin-"

"Don't finish that line, or I'll cut out your tongue! Besides, Yamcha is immature and stupid. I could have been paralyzed or even killed Kakarot. I fell off a horse. People die from that sort of thing, you know. That was foolish. I don't care if what I'm doing is immature. What do you do when someone fights you? You fight back. What do you do when you get a hard assignment in school? You work hard enough to accomplish the work. So, what do I do to an idiot who does crap? You do more crap to the stupid freak until they don't want to mess with me anymore."

"But Vegeta, I don't think this is right."

"Revenge is never right," he smirked "but it is just." Vegeta closed the car door and zipped up the bag and got back on his bike. "Let's go back."

"So that's all?"

"No, but right now it is. Ashley is supposed to handle some things to Bulma. I have something planned for her though. I've got a great idea. Let's go."

Goku sighed. "Okay."
