"Steven I told them your family was nuclear!" Connie explained.

"Nuclear!" Steven cried in offense, "Why would you say that? Just because they can blow things up doesn't mean they're made of uranium!"

"No, Steven," Connie said in exasperation, "A nuclear family is a family consisting of a mother, a father, and their children."

"But why would you say that? I don't have a mom!" Steven asked.

"I was worried that my parents wouldn't approve of me hanging out with a boy that had three aliens that could blow things up with a flick of their wrist looking after him…" she explained.

"Why wouldn't they?" Steven asked in confusion, "Wouldn't they be glad that their daughter's friend would have three super heroes to protect them?"

"...It's complicated Steven…" she explained, "We can talk about this later, but for right now we need to figure out a way out of this...we can't just tell them that your mom is dead now!"

"I know! Maybe we can get Piccolo to help!" Steven said, "He does a killer impression of Chichi!"

The two raced downstairs in search of the Namekian. Although the wasn't there, a particular prince of Saiyans exited the temple door and into the house.

"What are you two up to this time?" he asked.

"Vegeta!" Steven cheered happily, "We need your help. We need to find Piccolo so he can talk to Connie's mom and-"

"Why can't I just talk to her?" Vegeta asked, cutting him off.

"Well that might not be a good idea, actually. You see-" but before he could say another word, Vegeta snatched the cell phone from them and held it up to his ear.

"Yes, what do you want?" he snapped. Connie's palm met her forehead and Steven physically paled.

He paused for a few seconds to listen to Connie's mom. "This is Vegeta, Pri-" Vegeta started but noticed the children desperately shaking their heads no. He narrowed his eyes at them before continuing. "I mean, Steven's uncle…" Vegeta paused again. Then his eyes grew wide. "Steven's mom?!" he sputtered, "Hold on…" Vegeta covered the receiver and turned to glare at the children. "Care to explain?" he asked.

"Connie may have said I have a nuclear family…" Steven explained sheepishly.

Vegeta growled and pinched the bridge of his nose. "Whatever…" he said, before returning to the phone. "I'm sorry but you can't talk to steven's mom she's…out training…in the mountains of China" he lied. "When will she be back?" he repeated. The two children sweated nervously. "Uh…," Vegeta started before stating bluntly, "Never. She's never coming back."

With that, both children buried their faces in their hands. They could both hear Connie's mom's reaction from the phone. "We're doomed…" Connie muttered, "I don't know how this could possibly get any worse…"

"I'm sorry, I can't talk anymore," Vegeta said, "I have to go...teach the kids how to beat people up. Bye." With that Vegeta hung up.

"And It just got worse…" Connie sighed.

"Sorry. I panicked," Vegeta responded completely unapoligeticly as he handed her back the phone. "Anyways, come on you two," he said.

"Huh? Why?" Steven asked as Vegeta grabbed his and Connie's wrists.

"Well I probably got your friend in trouble by telling her mom I was teaching her to beat people up. Might aswell get in trouble for something you actually did," he explained, draging Steven and Connie along.

So I guess I'm continuing this. Hurray! Feel free to give me episode or scene suggestions.
