By popular request, another part in the series of Goku and Vegeta's torture as fast food employees.
"I'm telling you Kakarot, if I get one more 'there isn't any onions in this hamburger', I am going to..." Vegeta started, stabbing a large knife through a piece of burger on the table.
"Well Vegeta, if you put onions in there, you know that wouldn't happen.. I think.." Goku turned his head wondering about whether his statement held any accuracy.
"I KNOW that Kakarot... But they order ones that don't COME with onions!" Vegeta explained to the simpleton for what seemed to be the hundreth time.
"Well Vegeta, you know if you put onions in all of the burgers anyways, nobody could say they didn't have any onions!" Goku said, sure of his impeccable logic this time.
"Kakarot.." Vegeta said shaking his head. "If there were onions in the ones that weren't SUPPOSED to have onions, then everyone would complain that they HAD onions in their hamburgers!"
Goku turned his head in what seemed to be thought for long moments, but truly he was staring at the light bulb on the ceiling of the kitchen. "Wait, I don't understand Vegeta.." He started again.
"Of course you don't understand... Do you know why you don't understand Kakarot?" Vegeta dryly stated, without hope of being able to make him understand.
"Wait I know this one..." Goku counted his fingers. Incorrectly.
"Because Kakarot. You're an idiot." He stared at Goku, pondering why Goku was incapable of even counting to ten.
"Oh yeah I KNEW you told me that one before..." Goku responded, only slightly offended.
"Breaks over, back to work." The manager spoke, her dooming voice putting them both back in action. "Oh and Vegeta.." She said, putting her hand out to stop him in the chest- "Some of the customers have been complaining about the eating environment.. DO smile?"
Vegeta's only response was a barely audible scoff.
The customers came and went, and Goku couldn't remember any of them more then a few seconds after they were no longer within line of sight, until a familiar face walked in through the door.
"Hey, Goku!!" Krillin yelled over to his best pal.
"How's it going man!" Krillin said as he ran over behind the counter and shook Goku's hand.
--
"Haha, Hey Krillin! Hey you autta sign up here, it's great!" Goku said enthusiastically to his friend.
"Uh-haha, thats okay, you can go ahead and uh, keep that offer... " Krillin said laughing somewhat nervously. "So uh, burgers huh? I always thought you were a fish kinda guy myself.. " Krillin said trailing off.
"Well, Chi-chi thought it was a good idea, and well you know how she gets all sad if I disagree!" Goku explained.
"Goku.. that was one time.. I mean you said you were die..." Krillin shook his head. " sometimes Goku, you really are thick.." He mumbled off too low for Goku to take notice.
"Well yeah but I was! Well I thought I was! I don't see what's the big deal though," Goku said laughing with a wide smile, " I die all the time!"
"Goku-!" Krillin choked out. "Normal people don't die all the time!! It's not easy to get used too you know..." Krillin trailed off again, likely due to lack of self-esteem. "So Goku, what happened with the super-speed thing? I hear they got you doing things all normal speed now?"
"Well not most things. Just cleaning and stuff we have to do slow. Bulma said it's because 'the owners didn't like the idea they were paying you to sit around and play chess'. I didn't really understand what she meant though." Goku thought about it for a moment again, but his thoughts turned into pictures. Pictures of donuts and fish. Really big fish.
"Well... Hey Look Vegeta's wearing his hat!! Ha-ha!" Goku said pointing and laughing towards Vegeta, who was being humbled by his wife getting a look at how he looked with a cheesy fast food hat on. "He looks so... different!" Goku used his vast grasp of the english language to explain in detail just what his feelings were on the matter.
"Wow, He does look different! Haha! I can't believe Bulma actually got him to work here! I never thought I'd see the day..." Krillin smiled, thinking of himself better then Vegeta for one of the very rare moments in his life where he felt better then anybody besides Yamcha.
Vegeta, unamused with the hat, removed it rather quickly, and snarled at the concept of doing more work. "Seeya Goku!" He waved to his friend as he trodded off towards Vegeta. "Gotta go rub it in..." He threw back, his voice too low for Goku to pick up.
"Uh okay Krillin, be careful okay, Vegeta's well.. Hehhah! Vegeta!" Goku said with enormous mastery of choosing his words carefully and with great meaning.
"So..I had to see it for myself.." Krillin observed with his hands in his pockets. "They really got you working here huh? Heh heh, oh this is great, I'm gonna have to get 18 down here to see this..." Krillin said with a bright smile, watching Vegeta cleaning off a table.
"You are treading a very thin line midget..." Vegeta growled, pointing a finger at Krillin.
"Hey, I'm just saying, who's the real man here letting his wife order him around huh?" Krillin said chuckling.
The leg of the table Vegeta was wiping cracked in half, splintered from excessive force.
"oop-" Krillin, currently enjoying being alive, decided he'd like to continue that enjoyment for a little longer and high-tailed it outta there, with Vegeta's threatening glare at his back.
"That's coming outta your paycheck you know." The manager said.
AN: Well i just had to write this cause i totally stared getting images in my mind of the conversation between krillin/goku and vegeta/krillin. maybe i will make some more pointless chapters later that include piccolo and some other characters.
