*Pop*

Hmmmmm. That feels pleasant and warm.

Goku lowered his fingers from his forehead to take in his surroundings. Outdoors in the middle of nowhere was not where he was expecting to find himself. He gazed up at the sky where he saw a man floating a few hundred meters away. Then he looked over his shoulder and saw that he was standing in the middle of some knee-high, thorny shrubbery. Guess they're doing a Piccolo today and decided to train in a wasteland. Finally he glanced down to see what was in front of him. Curious to find the source of the pleasant warmth enveloping his left lower leg. Huh? A wiener? A few seconds later, he winced. "Crap crap crap crap crap!"

Earlier, about 1 minute ago...

"I need a short break. I'll be right back!" The adult man nodded at the boy in comprehension and crossed his arms. Allowing the kid to take a breather and do his business.

The boy checked his surroundings. "Awfully barren here. Not even a freaking rock in sight. I don't know how Piccolo stands this place." He sighed in defeat. "Guess those plants will have to do." A white aura ignited around him and he took off towards the small patch of bushes.

Once there the boy undid his pants and started watering the shrubs. Humming a tune as he enjoyed his short break from the rigorous training his father is putting him through today.

*Pop*

The kid flinched in surprise when something large and orange suddenly appeared uncomfortably close in front of him. He did a double take, slowly realizing what just happened and completely forgetting about his ongoing stream in the process.

He saw that Goku was looking up. The intrusive man appeared to have noticed his dad up in the sky and was now looking over his shoulder. Apparently oblivious to the fact that he was getting peed on.

After checking everything except for what was right under his nose, Goku finally noticed him. And judging by the look on his face and his colorful exclamations, he wasn't too happy with the local weather conditions of his left knee.

"Erm, Goku?" The boy asked. "Would you mind getting out of the way? I'm not done yet."

"YIKES! I'm sorry Trunks, I didn't see ya there." Goku grabbed the back of his neck and flashed the kid an awkward grin. He hopped to the side clumsily and started patting his pants as if he was trying to dust off some dirt.

Trunks gawked at the display in disbelief while aiming mindlessly in front of him. "Wow. No wonder my dad always calls you an idiot. You can't dust off a liquid, you moron. You'd have to wring your pants for that."

Goku frowned at the boy. "That's not very nice, Trunks." Then added a pout and mumbled. "Ya sound just like your dad."

Trunks finished pissing and tucked himself back in. After that he turned to face Goku and put his hands on his waist.

"Dude, teleporting in on people unannounced when they're taking a piss is not very nice."

"Really? I've seen weirder things than your little hose." Goku took a short trip down memory lane, remembering all the larger hoses he had seen and so much more. He visibly shuddered and could feel Vegeta staring daggers at him. "A lot weirder."

Trunks rolled his eyes and crossed his arms. "What are you even doing here? You used instant transmission on me, not on my dad." Trunks blinked. "Wait, what are you doing?" He watched in confusion as Goku untied his sash and stripped out of his gi. "Dude!"

The universe's savior was standing in the middle of the thorny shrubs in nothing but his comfy, light blue shorts while folding his orange garment to a strip. He grabbed his gi next to the wet stain and started wringing it in an attempt to clean it.

"Goku! What's your problem?" Trunks threw his hands up. "You can just use your ki to evaporate it, you dolt!"

"But ya said...!" Goku paused and scratched his temple. "Oh yeah, I totally forgot I could just do thát. Wow, you're really smart for someone your age, Trunks."

"And you're really stupid for someone your age, Goku." Trunks heard his dad roaring with laughter in the sky above him.

Goku put his gi back on and fired up his ki to dry the stain on his leg.

The sudden action caught Trunks off guard. He jumped back a few meters and shielded himself from the wave of energy Goku effortlessly released. How can someone so stupid be so strong at the same time? It's not fair.

"Anyways Trunks." A dry and unfazed Goku continued. "Ya mom send me and I'm here to tell ya that tomorrow is Vegeta's birthday, so you'll be staying with me and Goten for the next three days."

"What? Really? Yaay!" Trunks' Vegeta-like demeanor evaporated as he turned into a normal, excited nine-year-old. He turned around and looked up. "Hey dad! Did you hear that?" Trunks waved both arms at his father. "Mom told me I have to stay with Goten for the next three days. Isn't that cool? Can I go right now?"

Vegeta flew a little closer. "Sure." The prince fired up his ki and took off towards Capsule Corp. without saying another word.

"Yippie!" Trunks was hopping up and down in excitement.

"Hey wait a minute." Goku had his hand on his chin and a brooding look on his face. "Since when does Vegeta have a birthday?"

Trunks stopped bouncing. He blinked at Goku while he scratched his cheek. He didn't have an answer ready. "Uh, I dunno." Good question. Guess he's not totally stupid.

Goku shrugged, unbothered by the unsolved mystery and reached out his hand. "Hold on Trunks. Imma use Instant Transmission to get us back to my place." He ruffled the boy's hair. "And I'm sorry about earlier, I didn't expect ya to be peeing. I'll knock next time, I promise."

Trunks grabbed Goku's hand with enthusiasm. "It's fine dude. At least I get to teleport!" This is so cool!

*Pop* They both disappeared to Mount Paozu. Ready for a killer three days.
