I'm feeling like I wanna post another one so I have! :) ENJOY!

Chapter 5: Shocking, Isn't It?

As the final bell of the day rang, Jet picked up his book bag and flung it over his shoulder, all the while deep in thought about what happened in the gym. He'd let his guard down, causing him to lose. He was a Saiyan! Losing was unacceptable! He mentally slapped himself for allowing himself to be fooled.

He was still in thought when he turned the corner and bumped into someone, but not just any someone: Videl.

He looked down and saw her rubbing her head, "Ow! What the heck!?"

Videl looked up and saw Jet, his eyes downcast and his demeanor very stiff. She picked up her books and looked him in the eye, "Hey, watch where you're going next time?!"

Jet looked at her directly, "Sorry."

Videl wasn't at all satisfied, "Whatever. Why are you all moppy? Are you mad because you got your butt handed to you by a girl?!" The last part was meant to instigate him.

Jet clenched his teeth slightly, "It's not the fact that I lost, but the fact that I allowed myself to be tricked into losing. I'm someone who take martial arts very seriously, and I'm someone who's not easily fooled by anyone…why do you care? Didn't you lose to Gohan anyway?"

Now it was Videl's turn to be mad, "I let him win. Someone like him needs to have self-confidence in order to get around here. If I were really trying, he'd be on the ground begging for a ring out."

"Trust me, Videl, you didn't let him win. I know people like you, they try to hide their pride by saying that they 'let' someone win, when, in fact, they're just too prideful to admit that someone is stronger than them." Jet said, "So…if you ever want to tell the truth about the fight and get better, go talk to Gohan. Maybe he'll give you pointers."

Videl's face turned red. The embarrassment she was feeling wasn't the fact that the boy in front of her was talking to her like this, but the fact that he was right. She'd fought with everything she had, but she didn't even land a single hit on Gohan. Nonetheless, she still wasn't going to admit that.

She poked her finger into his chest, "Look, I don't need anybody's second-rate pointers to become worse at what they do."

Jet grabbed her finger lightly and put it down. His teeth were now showing and his voice came out in a small growl, "My friend isn't second-rate at anything, Videl. Remember that."

Without another word, he walked off, leaving a very angry Videl behind.

Jet walked out the front doors of the school and saw Gohan talking to Saiya. He dashed over there, hoping to get in a better mood. That talk with Videl really put him in a bad mood.

"Hey guys." He said as he approached.

"Hey, Jet." They both replied.

"What were you guys talking about?" Jet asked.

Saiya smiled, "We were talking about going out with Sharpner and Erasa to a movie or something."

That did sound like a good idea. Maybe he just needed a little time with friends. "Hey." Jet piped up, "There's a pizza place about a few minutes from here, we could walk…" He stopped as he sensed a large ki. "Oh wait…I made a promise to a friend of mine that I'd hand out with him after school today."

"Who, Goten?" Gohan inquired. But, he didn't promise Goten today…oh, wait! What is that? I'm sensing a really high power!

Jet nodded, "Yeah." He turned to Saiya, "Maybe another day."

Saiya nodded sadly, "I get it, maybe tomorrow after school?"

Jet and Gohan nodded, "Okay."

Jet suddenly looked off into the distance as he felt the very powerful ki come even closer to where they were. He whispered over to Gohan, "We've got an incoming."

Gohan nodded slightly, "Yeah, I know."

They both turned around as the ki signature came around the corner. They both paled at the sight of the person. It was Vegeta.

"Brats! The woman has instructed me to get you! Let's go!" Vegeta barked, "I'm not afraid to kick your sorry asses then drag you there by your damn eyelids if you don't come now!"

Gohan quickly ran over, but Jet turned to Saiya, "Uh, we'll see you tomorrow."

Saiya looked over his shoulder and saw Vegeta, the Saiyan Prince, "Who's that?" She asked, knowing fully well who he was.

Jet paled again as he fumbled for a response, "Uh, well…he's my…Uncle! Yeah, my uncle."

"Well, your uncle doesn't seem too friendly." Saiya pointed out, making sure to keep her power low, "What's his deal?"

Jet laughed awkwardly, "Well, he's not always in a good mood, heh."

Vegeta watched Jet talk and growled out, "Kentic, tell your mate you'll talk to her later, but now let's go, Brat!"

"Mate?" Jet's face flushed, "Ve…I mean, Uncle, it's nothing like that!" He turned back to Saiya, "Uh bye!"

Vegeta dragged the two by their collars as they flew through the air once out of sight. Jet and Gohan paled once again at what Vegeta was going to put them through. But, what was he going to do?

"Uh, Vegeta? Why are we going to Bulma's?" Jet asked cautiously.

Vegeta wasn't at all pleased, "I'm taking you two there so she'll shut the hell up and turn the damn gravity chamber back on!"

"But why does she need us?" Gohan asked next.

Vegeta's voice started to rise, "I don't know and I don't give a shit! All I care about is getting back to training. But whatever it was, she wanted you two idiots fast."

The time to get to Capsule Corp. was short. Once there, Jet and Gohan walked into Bulma's laboratory. She was obviously testing some new type of armor made for Vegeta, because she had a laser blasting at his Saiyan armor.

"Yes, this one he'll be sure not to break." She congratulated herself. She turned around and saw Jet and Gohan, slightly scaring herself, "Guys, you have to say you're here or something!"

"Sorry, Bulma." Gohan said, "But why did you need us?"

The blue haired genius smiled as she dusted off her tech-suit, "Yeah, I asked Vegeta to get you because I was just notified of something concerning you two."

"Well, what is it?" Jet asked.

Bulma nodded, "Well, you know how every year one class out of one school gets to have a week trip to Capsule Corp.?"

"Yeah, so?"

"Well, this year, the lucky class that gets to go is your class. The ninth grade class of Orange Star High School! Isn't that great?!"

Jet and Gohan shared a face. Their class got to go to Capsule Corp.?! But they knew Bulma and everyone who worked here!

"Bulma!" Jet slapped his own forehead, "We can't be picked. We know you! If our class found out about our relation to you, then we'd never hear the end of it. Especially since tomorrow we have to share one cool fact about our lives."

Gohan's reaction was equally similar, "This isn't going to end well."

Bulma grabbed both of their shoulders firmly, "Hey! This is a great opportunity for your class, and just because they'll know that you know me, it doesn't mean that they'll have different thoughts about you. And, besides, you don't go till next week. Your teacher will get the notification tomorrow, though….And before you ask, yes, you do have to go or you fail your entire grade."

That made the decision more like a command. Gohan had to maintain perfect grades or there would be no more training. It would be complete studying all day and night. And Jet's mom would kill him if he failed an entire grade just because he didn't want to go to Capsule Corp. Jet mentally slapped himself for agreeing to public school.

"Shocking, isn't it?" Vegeta's voice rang through their heads as he entered the room.

Jet turned to Vegeta, "You knew? You said you didn't!"

Vegeta started to laugh, "I lied to you, boy. I wanted to see your faces once the woman told you the news."

Gohan's face paled again, "Please don't embarrass us, Vegeta, Bulma."

Vegeta laughed even harder, "I can't make any guarantees, Kakabrat."

Jet suddenly remembered, "Vegeta, I need to speak with you."

Vegeta reluctantly followed him outside, "What?"

"You called Saiya my mate. What did you mean by that?" Jet asked.

Vegeta chuckled, "I called her what she is…or will be. I can see your affections for the earthling, but don't you dare let that get in the way of your training!"

"Vegeta, putting training aside, she isn't my mate. Don't call her that around anybody." Jet said firmly. In all the years that Jet had known Vegeta, he had learned that Vegeta never backed down and always had to be right or have his way, so he could only hope that his words had some effect.

"Fine." Vegeta growled, "But if I catch you with her, and I feel your affection, I'll make sure you rued the day that you ever commanded me. I'll make you train in the gravity chamber with me for seven hours at three hundred times gravity!"

Jet rolled his eyes, "Whatever, Vegeta."

"I mean it!" Vegeta yelled as Jet walked back in.

Little did Jet know, but that wasn't the only reason he went to go get them. Sure the woman was pestering and threatening him about it, but he also wanted to scope out that power he felt. Once he saw the girl, he knew it was her that was sending out the power. The girl was a lot of things, but an earthling wasn't one of them.

Vegeta stared off into the distance with his lips pursed together as an eerie feeling of evil energy swept over him…It felt slightly familiar.

"I hope the boy knows what he's getting himself into." He whispered into the wind. As much as he pisses me off with being one step ahead of me, the boy has become somewhat of a part of my life. Though, I'll never admit it out loud. He smirked gently. Kakarot you've rubbed off on me too much.

And even if Jet didn't know…he would soon, of that Vegeta was sure. He could feel the questions in his mind about her energy, but he still couldn't grasp the big picture.

The girl wasn't human.
