Vegeta learns to drive
Gohan´s life at high school was much more complicated than that of any other teenager, true enough, he had to study, get good grades, try to be popular (not too much) flirt with girls (if he could only stop being blackmailed and tracked down by them) like other boys, but also he had to hide his "super-heroe" identity. He had thought about it, the best option was to ask Bulma for advice. She was a brilliant scientist and his dad´s best friend, surely she could help him. Besides he liked her a lot, she had always been kind and funny and her house was an amazing place.
She welcomed him with open arms, she was interested in the idea and promised to help him.
-"Do you mind if I play with Trunks instead of just waiting here?"- Gohan asked, he was as cute as when he was a small boy.
-"Sure, he will love it"- Bulma agreed-"He must be in the GR with Vegeta"
-"Vegeta? Is he training with Vegeta? He is a bit too young"- Gohan said surprised
-"Yes, that is what I said but you know Vegeta, he said that if Trunks was old enough to walk then he was old enough to train, last time I tried to talk to him he started with the saiyan tradition and yadda, yadda, yadda...so"- Bulma shrug her shoulders-"I think he wants to make sure Trunks is stronger than you"
-"Great"- Gohan faked a smile-"Vegeta, as nice as usual"
Gohan walked through the huge house, he knew the corridors because he had been there since he was a baby, but sometimes it seemed to him that the house was bigger than the last time. How did Vegeta and Trunks were able to find their way around the house was a mistery to him.
-"Hi Gohan"- Doctor Briefs said, he was walking with a mug of coffee on his hand and the cat on his shoulder.-"Bulma says you are in high school now"
-"Yes, I have just started"- Gohan answered.-"Any idea where is the GR?"
-"Let me see, the GR..."- Doctor Briefs thought for a moment, caressing his chin-"I guess yesterday it was down that hall, it should still be there, but maybe I am wrong, you can never know for sure."
-"Gee, thanks, that was a lot of help"- Gohan rubbed the back of his head, just like Goku would have done.
At the end of the hall Gohan saw a small boy with purple hair that was drying the sweat from his face on a towel.
-"Trunks"- He said-"it seems you have had a hard training"
-"Yes, father is training me"- Trunks smiled delighted to see Gohan-"when have you arrived?"
-"Just now"- Gohan stopped when he saw Vegeta coming out of the GR.
The prince was as proud and arrogant as ever, dressed in training gear, and looking as he had not broken a sweat in all day.
-"Hi Vegeta, nice to see you"- Gohan muttered nervous
-"Look at you, you have gone out of shape"- Vegeta looked at the boy disappointed-"you cannot let yourself go soft in peace time".
-"Yes, sir"- Gohan was unable to say anything else.
-"Gohan, should be go to play?"- Trunks ignored his father´s usual rudeness, he was anxious to have some fun, besides he was so used to the behaviour of Vegeta he didn´t notice it as odd.
Gohan tried his new device, Trunks looked excited and asked his mom for a similar toy, it would be great if only he and Gohan could have a costume, Goten would be so angry. But as soon as he saw the costume he changed his mind. Trunks would never wear such a thing, his father would never stop mocking him for looking like a geek.
Gohan went away with his new outfit, while Trunks watched him fly away from the garden
-"Come back soon, come back tomorrow!"- He shouted.
Bulma felt sorry for her son and patted him on the head
-"Come on, Trunks, you must be starving after all that training. Have you had fun with dad today?"- Bulma asked him
-"Sure, he is teaching me the gallick gun"- He told his mother, who flinched when she heard the name of the famous attack the prince used against Goku and her friends.
-"Try not to blast anyone, ok, it is bad enough to have to remind your father all the day, I will hate to have to do the same with you"- Bulma said, talking with saiyans about attacks was a lost cause.
Gohan´s true identity was discovered by a girl called Videl, the daughter of Mr.Satan, and she decided to have some fun with the boy. Gohan was too soft to say no to all her requests, he fooled himself saying it was because she knew her identity and could tell others, but deep down he liked her. She was a nice girl, when she was not pretending to be the toughest person in the world. Gohan went back to Capsule Corp, he needed some extra help from Bulma.
This time the blue-haired heiress was tinkering with a motorbike, Trunks by her side dressed by a huge Capsule Corp t-shirt that looked like it used to belong to Vegeta, it had some areas that had been burned by blasts.
-"So you are entering the next martial arts tournament?"- Bulma asked him-"Why?"
-"There is a girl in my school, Videl, she knows I am the great saiyaman and she has said that if I do not enter she will tell everyone my secret"- Gohan explained
-"You get blackmailed more than a politician, you are so different from your dad and yet sometimes you are just as dumb as Goku, specially when it comes to girls"- Bulma laughed. Trunks was thinking that sometimes Gohan was just a big geek.
-"Videl? I heard that name before"- Bulma left the bike for a moment.
-"Sure, she is the daughter of Mr. Satan, but she is nice, she likes to fight evil, just like me"- Gohan defended her
-"What do you want me to do? You canot wear the helmet?"- Bulma continued, she was not going to offer again her opinion about Mr. Satan, everyone knew it.
Gohan ended up with a pair of sunglasses and a scarf around his head. Trunks tried not to laugh out loud, he looked ridiculous.
-"How do I look?"- Gohan asked him
-"Great"- Trunks lied in a low voice. Gohan was after all his friend.
-"The tournament will be boring, after all, you will win without any challenge"- Bulma commented-"Who could defeat you?"
-"Yours truly"- the deep voice of Vegeta interrupted them. He was wearing his training outfit and had just entered into the room. He had been wandering the house for a while, wondering what were Bulma and Trunks doing when he sensed Gohan´s ki and became even more interested.
-"You are entering the tournament too?"- Bulma asked
-"If Gohan enters I will enter, when we fought Cell he was stronger than me but he has gone all soft while I have done nothing but severe training"- Vegeta smirked pleased
-"True, it is all he does, training, training, training"- Bulma added
-"How cool, dad and Gohan will fight"- Trunks started jumpig between his parents seeking their attention.
-"I will enter too"- another voice joined them, it was Goku.
-"Father!"- Gohan shouted
-"Goku?"- Bulma looked upwards
-"Who is he?"- Trunks had no idea what was going on.
-"I can come back for a whole day, so I will enter the tournament with you guys, can wait to see all of you"- Goku told them
-"This is getting interesting"- Vegeta said
-"What is going on?"- Trunks was too nervous
-"Gohan´s dad is coming to fight, son, even I am happy"- Vegeta told him.
-"I should go to tell the others"-Goha said and then turned to Vegeta-"Maybe you should wear a costume too"
-"What? No way, I am not going to be seen in public dressed like that"- Vegeta said outraged.
-"Tell Krillin about Goku"- Bulma reminded Gohan while he was leaving.
-"So, you are fighting Gohan?"- Trunks ran to his father side-"You will win, of course"
-"Of course"- Bulma smiled at Vegeta, who scowled at her for that.
-"Can I compete too?"- Trunks asked
-"We´ll see"- Bulma answered
-"Dad, can I train with you extra harder?"- Trunks asked his father
-"Spoken like a true saiyan"- Said Vegeta proud-"I will tell you one thing, son, if you enter the tournament and you prove yourself strong enough you can have anything you want"
-"Deal"- Trunks left running, he had to change to his training outfit as soon as possible
-"Sometimes I wonder if the half-human part is just in his hair colour"- Bulma said
-"He has royal blood, you should be proud, other women in my planet would have died to have the honour of being the mother of royal blood"- Vegeta replied
-"Unfortunately those women are space dust now and this woman is worried about her son"- Bulma walked close to Vegeta-"Don´t I get anything from all this?"
-"I do not understand"- Vegeta had no clue what she wanted
-"Two saiyans training can mean only two things: extra cooking and extra repairs of the GR"- Bulma explained-"so I want something for all the extra hard work I will have to do"
-"Fine, ask"- Vegeta hoped she only wanted extra sex or something like that, he had no problem in that.
-"I want you to learn to drive so you can get a driving license"- Bulma said
-"Why would I want to drive? I can fly"- Vegeta was shocked
-"It could be useful, Gohan is right, you cannot always go flying around and although we have the ships, driving could be useful"- Bulma told him-"besides, Goku did pass the exam, and I was wondering if you were able to do the same"
-"Anything that clown has done I can do it in half the time"- Vegeta growled.
-"Fine, I want you driving in a week"- Bulma said
-"I will do it in half that time"- Vegeta offered, he was going to leave when suddenly he realised one thing and turned around-"Where do weaklings go to do that exam?"
A day later a poor woman was shouting her heart out, sitting next to a very angry saiyan prince, who was driving a car at full speed at the same time that was insulting each and every single driver he had met on the highway.
-"I told him that we should have never taken this road on the first day, but he insisted...my, oh, my...he said something about a carrot being able to drive in the highway and that if the carrot could then he was able to do it on his first day...my...I am going to die in here"- the woman muttered terrified. At first she had thought that was her lucky day, she was going to teach how to drive to the richest man in the city, the rumours said he was the husband-to-be of Bulma Briefs, and a handsome man, and when she saw him, she had to agree, he was attractive, the quiet badboy type that make you feel weak on the knees. She thought that Bulma Briefs was the luckiest girl in the world. But then, the nightmare had started. Vegeta had a severe case of road rage.
-"Weakling, move it or I will blast that sorry excuse of a car you have got!"-Vegeta yelled again. The woman squirmed on her seat. Vegeta turned towards her and forced a smile-"How am I doing?"
-"Great, great"- She lied
-"Do you think I need any more lessons or I can get the license soon? You see it is important that I get it soon, Kakarot got his and that blasted woman will pest me forever if I don´t beat Kakarot in this"- Vegeta explained her
-"You want the license, you can have it, in fact, you can have whatever you want, just let me get out"- She pleaded
-"Can I have it?"-Vegeta smiled proud of himself, he must be really good at driving. He knew it, he was a prince, it was just natural that he could do these petty things so easily.
-"Sure, I will sign it, just let´s get back"- She promised.
Bulma was fixing a panel in the GR, Trunks had used his head to break it.
-"If he keeps bumping his head against the equipment he will never get good grades. Well, he has my genes, so he cannot be totally dumb, but this bumping business has to end. I cannot keep mending what he breaks with that hard head of his"- Bulma mumbled, she turned around when she felt a presence in the room and saw the huge and arrogant grin on Vegeta´s face.
-"I have the license, can I ask now what I want?"- He told her
-"I am not going to ask who have you threaten to get it"- Bulma placed her hands on her hips-"what do you want?"
Vegeta closed the GR door and looked at her with a devilish glint in his eyes.
-"You have to guess"- he purred.
-"I bet you feel so proud of yourself"- Bulma laughed
-"What can I say? I am a great driver"- Vegeta leaned near her and kissed her.
