Okay it is our last comical Chapter. Thankyou for the reviews and ideas!
I don't own DBZ or Masquerade.
Chapter 16
Mirai, Goten, and Trunks stood outside of the old dried out oil tank. A human sized whole looked to be ripped out of the side. They stepped in and saw the ugly man with an overcoat with holes, a maroon hoodie, and dark blue old jeans. He looked like a homeless failed science experiment. "Welcome, don't bother introducing yourselves," he said quickly, "Jennet called, said you three helped her and her sister out. Now you are looking for Terry? You can find him here in Santa Monica actually."
"Wait," said Mirai, "we just went through a hellish night only to find out he is here?"
"Yea," said Tung, "he is in those apartments above the pawn shop. He is in apartment 3."
"Um, thanks," said Trunks. He and Goten grabbed Mirai before he went ape shit on the 'helpful' Tung. They walked down the parking garage and to the pawn shop. "Well," said Trunks, "this is the end of the line for me and Goten."
"What, really," asked Mirai.
"Yea," said Goten, "I think you might have already gotten us in trouble, grounded until we are 6 feet under would probably be the least of it."
"Besides, we promised to be their until the end, well this is the end."
"Yea, Salem is expecting me tonight anyway."
"Thanks for everything," said Mirai, "and good luck with Salem. I'm sure she will say yes."
"What," asked Goten. Mirai just smiled. He turned to Trunks next.
"Don't kill him," he said laughing. He walked into the apartments leaving the other two confused.
"What is he talking about," asked Trunks.
"I don't have a clue," said Goten.

Vegeta woke up an hour later. He walked outside and saw Kold standing there. "Hey remember you are going to help us find out where Muddy ran off to."
"No I don't," said Vegeta venomously.
"Well, I'm not here to kill anymore. I can't promise anything for Frieza and Cell."
"I can't wait until they kill someone," said Vegeta, "that makes them free game."
"So lets head for the apartments," said Kold. He walked off followed by two angry villains and a tired and hungry space pirate. They arrived at the apartments and saw Goten and Trunks walking down the street.
"Where is Mirai," asked Vegeta.
"Who are they," asked Trunks.
"Don't ask," he said, "where is Mirai?"
"About to get his heart broken I think," said Goten, "I don't think he gets that Terry doesn't want him around anymore."
"Wow, you seriously stuck to him until the end?"
"Yup," said Trunks, "and now we are leaving."
"Wow," said Kold, "what a waist of time. Let's go find out where Muddy is."
"Is that Frieza," asked Goten.
"Yes I am and I am here to kill you!"
"Give it a rest," said Cell, "we aren't going to kill anyone with Kold around." Frieza growled in anger. Goten and Trunks exchanged looks but shrugged and took off.

Bulma had come to a decision; she would take over that company. She would take it over, joint it with CC and raise profits. Del-whatcha-ma-call-it would take the CC name and she would have twice as many employees. She packed up her and Vegeta's suitcase and left with her father. She told her father the plan and he was ecstatic to hear it. He always wanted the two companies to come together.

Goten arrived home and saw that Salem and Chichi were talking together. "I'm home, finally," he said. Chichi did exactly as was predicted. She jumped over the table and literally suffocated 'her baby' in her boobs saying how happy she was he was alive and how she was so worried and how he was grounded from now until he was buried six feet under. Goten desperately tried to escape his overbearing mother but she would not budge. "Mom, please, I'm sorry I ran off without telling you but it was an emergency."
"Well I should hope so! Salem and I have been worried sick about you!" Salem watched giggling at the funny sight. Goten deeply blushed while he tried to shove her off of him.
"Hey mom, could I talk to you in private?"
"Of course honey," she said dragging him into the next room. "What do you want to talk about?"
"Mom I know I'm only 15 but I want to ask Salem to marry me," he whispered.
"Marry," she whispered back, "I'm so happy. Oh my do you know what this means? More grandchildren." She had a dreamy look in her eyes. "So do you have a ring?"
"Well, that's the problem, no."
"That's okay. You can use my mothers ring," she said. "My mother died giving birth to me and my dad gave it to me to remember her by," Chichi had a hazy look in her eyes and tears were swelling up. Goten was shocked, he never heard anything about his grandmother before. Chichi walked up stares and pulled a shoe box out of her closet. Inside the shoe box was a picture of a woman that Chichi resembled with long black hair up in a geisha style, a sky blue kimono with clouds on it, and the Ox king in his normal tacky attire smiling into the camera. Chichi had a small smile on her face looking a the picture and remembered her father talking to her about it. She took the silver band with the diamond on it and inside it said in delicate cursive Your flame burns forever.
She examined it for imperfections and found nothing wrong. She went down stares with it and handed it to her youngest son. "I would have given it to your brother but he didn't say anything to me about the proposal until he already proposed to Videl. It doesn't matter though. I think it would look much prettier on Salem. Even if her grandfather is that overbearing 'Prince of all Saiyans'." The last part she said with sarcasm and mockery. Goten laughed a bit and made his way into the kitchen. He knew exactly what he was going to say. He rehearsed it over and over in his mind on the way here with the idea came to him. He had actually given it some thought sense the day they started dating. That was almost three months ago and they shared their first kiss only a month ago. As he approached her he began to worry that maybe he was moving to fast. Then he thought back to what Mirai said to him only a few hours ago. 'Don't worry, I'm sure she will say yes'. Was this a prediction? It wasn't very witty or riddlely like all of his other predictions.
Salem watched as he stopped suddenly but walked forward. She was about to get up from her chair when one of the chains on her black tripp pants caught the chair. She looked around and saw that the chair leg was sitting on it. She looked up and saw Goten standing in front of her looking terrified. It actually amused her to see him looking so scared. He got down on his knees in front of her. She smirked at how funny he was acting. He cleared his throat and put her hands in his. He looked at her hands and then back up at her.
"I know we haven't been dating each other for very long. I don't want to make it seem like I'm moving really fast here. I want to marry you," he said. Salem's face fell from amusement to unsure. "We've known each other for a long time. I know we are still really, really, really young but I have never been more sure of anything in my life." Salem thought about this. He was right, they were young. Maybe too young. But she couldn't help but feel like this was maybe the right thing to do. She suddenly felt a pang of guilt. Would she accept simply because it was just the right thing to do? No, she had never felt what she felt around him. She smiled and jumped out of the chair flipping it down on the floor on him and had the hottest make out session they ever had before….Goten took this for a yes.

Chichi watched with tears in her eyes. This was the happiest day of her life…..again….

Kold and the three unhappy rivals stood in the trashy apartment. Kold found an answering machine and turned it on. "Hey, baby, its Mike. Just wanted to tell you I'm leaving town for a few days. I will be downtown at the skyline apartments. Let me know if you need anything. Love ya." The answering machine stopped. "We need to let Arthur know what is going on," said Kold, "lets go."
"No," said Frieza, "this has been the worst two days of my life! I'm leaving and I'm not taking you with me father!"
"I'm going with him," said Cell, "if I have to spend one more minute running errands on this planet I WILL KILL SOMEONE! Because I'm too perfect for this!"
"Um…bye," said Kold, not really sure how to handle this, "but if you get killed I'm not going against my new good nature and turning evil."
"That's just fine with me," said Frieza. He and Cell stormed out of the apartment to maybe to steal a space craft and leave Earth in hopes of never having to return again. Little did they know they were going to get lost in space, attacked by rebels still holding a grudge against Frieza, and later stranded on a planet and used as sacrafices to the all mighty god Rattatoui! The great Rat Cook. But enough about them, back to our story (I might make that a short story sounds like a funny idea to me).
Vegeta just shook his head and left for home leaving Kold to tell Arthur the bad news. Vegeta was about to come home when he sensed that MV was around this area. He followed the sense and found himself in front of a jail house.

MV sighed, there was no use, no matter what he did Mirai wasn't going to listen to a damn thing he said. Why should he? MV didn't exactly do the best he could. They were practically strangers until the two were turned into vampires. It took two deaths for MV to get the picture and only one death for V to get it. The Vegeta of this time line was obviously better at this then he was. A guard walked up and said that he was bailed out. "By who," asked MV wondering who would bother with him. Vegeta walked up with an amused look on his face. MV rolled his eyes. He forgot how self loving he was for a moment. All that pressure of thinking about someone other then him made him forget just how self righteous he really was. Thank Kami for small favors.

Mirai opened the door and saw Terry chained to a chair with his face tear stricken and two Sabbat standing over him. Terry had cuts and bruses all over him. One of the Sabbat had a hot poker in his hand. "Well, well," he said, "if it isn't the nutty brat we were tying to look for. Your boyfriend is loyal," said the first Sabbat.
"Yea," said the second, "we have been torturing him for two days strait and he refused to tell us where you were. Says he wont tell us anything."
"We were going to kill him but know that you are here, we won't have to."

It's Mirai vs. the Sabbat next time and a terrible heart break for Mirai. Its the last chapter to end the series T.T
