Chapter 1 (Prologue): Rise of the Sophomores!
August 12th. It was finally the day: Registration Day. At West City High School, on a beautiful, hot, and humid day, students ranging from Freshman to Senior lazily arrived at the high school, with their only purpose of seeing their friends.
"Jeez Vegeta, why are you shoving everyone?" Bulma yawned tiredly, waiting in the registration line with her flame haired boyfriend. They were inside the building, but the line was so long, that it stretched into the outside premises.
"Because...these disgusting humans think they can cut in front of me! Who do they think they are?!" Vegeta growled, stretching out his collar of his brand new black gakuran uniform.
"Vegeta, stop that!" Bulma slapped Vegeta's hands away from his outfit, "I spent good money for that uniform!"
"Well it's stupid! Why did the f*cking school board of education approve of uniforms?!" Vegeta hissed, unbuttoning a few buttons from the top of his uniform.
Bulma sighed and rebuttoned the loose ones from his uniform, "It isn't that bad, Vegeta..." She ended up wearing a simple collared long sleeved white shirt, along with a pink shirt.
"Hmph..." Vegeta simply crossed hus arms and pouted, the line barely moving until he heard more familiar voices.
"VEGETA! BULMA!" Goku Instant Transmissioned in front of them, along with Chi-Chi, Krillin, 18, and Piccolo.
"Not so loud!" Piccolo growled, rubbing his sensitive ears. He was also wearing a black gakuran uniform.
"Oh, I see you guys also heard of the new uniform rule," Chi-Chi smiled, admiring her own white collared shirt and black skirt, "I really think it'll bring a positive influence within the school!"
"I hate it," Krillin muttered, fiddling with his own navy blue gakuran, "It's pretty itchy,"
"Kakarot...can you tell me why the f*ck your uniform is orange?" Vegeta demanded, "The dress code only allows black, gray, or navy blue!"
"The idiot didn't wanna leave his orange gi behind, so we ended up dying all his uniforms orange too..." 18 explained, wearing her white collared shirt with a blue skirt.
"Well...as long as he doesn't get in trouble for it..." Bulma shrugged. The line began moving up more, and eventually she was the first one in the group to begin telling the lady on the desk her information to register.
"Um excuse me," A small voice tapped Vegeta's shoulder, and he turned around to see a small boy with a Saiyan-esque hair style, "I think you cut in front of me..."
"..." Vegeta simply lifted his hand, and it sent a gust of wind, blowing the boy out of the doors of the school, to the back of the line.
"That wasn't very nice, Vegeta..." Goku frowned, scratching the back of his head.
"I hate freshman! Trying to rule the school and sh*t!" Vegeta hissed, turning back to the front of the line and crossing his arms.
"Finished!" Bulma smiled, receiving her schedule and agenda, "I hope I got AP classes, I signed up for them last year!"
"Sophomores don't get AP classes!" Cell smirked, walking up to the group, "But I certainly did!"
Bulma glared at Cell's smug face, and revealed her schedule, containing AP classes too, "Well, it seems like we're on the same boat!"
"Impossible! How did you convince Buttstinger to change your classes?! I had to threaten her at blastpoint!" Cell hissed.
"I just payed her 20 Zeni, and she accepted the money like a wild animal...she certainly is freaking broke..." Bulma shrugged.
"That b*tch!" Cell hissed, "I'll make her life a living Hell!"
"And how are you gonna do that?" Piccolo questioned, next in line to register.
"With me!" Frieza entered the scene, carrying a huge book, showing it off to everyone.
"...What's that?" Krillin asked, checking his phone for the time.
"It's our collection of pranks that we written down and did throughout our school years!" Cell marveled, "Ranging from the classic Kindergarten Mr. Blutzinger tripping techniques to the modern 8th Grade Mr. Blutzinger being tied into a car and driving into the school!"
"...Wow," Bulma said, "An entire book dedicated to torturing one human,"
"Awesome, right?!" Frieza grinned, nearly salivating over the book, "This is the year of pranking Buttstinger!"
"WHAT DID YOU SAY?!" A stern voice yelled, making everyone jump.
King Vegeta stomped down the hall, and marched right up to Frieza and Cell, "What is that book for?!"
"Umm...pranking Blutzinger..." Cell muttered, avoiding King Vegeta's glare.
"...Can I be in it?! Pretty pleaaase!" King Vegeta begged, dropping down to his knees, "I always wanted to see that b*tch suffer!"
"Umm...sure," Frieza and Cell exchanged confused looks before going along with it.
"Dad! Daaad!" Tarble and Celeria ran up to their father, who didn't look too happy about the interruption.
"What do you brats want?! Can't you see we're planning to hurt someone?!" King Vegeta emphasized.
"...Wow Dad...Anyway, Bardock told is to tell you that you're late for your own meeting in the teacher's lounge," Tarble informed.
"WHAT?!" King Vegeta roared, causing everyone to stop and turn towards him like he was insane.
"We'll talk about this later!" King Vegeta promised to Cell and Frieza before leaving the hall and rushed up the stairs.
"...You're dad is weird," Cell commented towards Vegeta.
"I know that, and he's a horrible principal..." Vegeta added, shaking his head in shame.
"I finally finished!" Goku smiled, the last one to get registered, "Now we can compare our schedules!"
Everyone gathered around and checked out each other's schedules:
1st Hour: English (Mr. King Kai)
2nd Hour: History (Mr. Bardock)
3rd Hour: P.E (Master Roshi)
4th Hour: Chemistry (Dr. Gero)
5th Hour: Algebra 2/Trig (Mr. King Piccolo)
6th Hour: Lunch
7th Hour: Band (Mr. King Cold)
8th Hour: Study Hall (Mrs. Blutzinger- Everyone Else) AP Anatomy (Dr. Briefs- Cell and Bulma only)
"Why the f*ck is Mrs. Blutzinger in our study hall?!" Vegeta yelled, stomping his foot.
"I dunno...isn't she the assistant principal?" Goku pondered.
"Yeah...this is strange..." Krillin scratched his bald head, "But as long as we got each other, things should be fine!"
Everyone paused and turned to look at Krillin, who's face started to burn slightly.
"...That was freaking corny," Piccolo spat in disgust, walking away.
"Sorry!" Krillin called out, but Piccolo simply ignored him and continued on his way.
"Hey guys, I'm going to the bathroom, be right back," Bulma announced, walking off.
"We're going with you!" Chi-Chi followed, along with 18 and Celeria, leaving Goku, Vegeta, Krillin, and Tarble alone.
"...Why do girls always go to the bathroom in groups?" Krillin questioned.
"...I dunno," Goku shrugged.
Tarble turned towards his big brother and smirked knowingly at him, making Vegeta uncomfortable, "...What?!"
"Sooo...when are you gonna propose?" Tarble questioned, his smirk turning into a smile, causing Krillin to choke and Goku to freeze in shock.
"Tarble-!" Vegeta snapped, turning red, before Goku and Krillin bombarded him with questions.
"You're proposing to Bulma?!" Goku questioned incredulously, "Gosh Vegeta!"
"Wow, I didn't know you had it in ya- Wait a minute! You're not allowed to get legally married until your 18!" Krillin realized.
"Hmph, I know that, Baldy...but I have to propose to Bulma before Senior year, so I don't plan on doing it anytime soon..." Vegeta growled, crossing his arms.
"But like, you should make the first move now!" Goku insisted, "Like give her something!"
"I already gave her something for her birthday, you dolt," Vegeta scoffed.
"I got the perfect idea: give her your second button!" Tarble jumped in.
"...What?" Vegeta gave Tarble a strange look.
"It's one of the most romantic things you can do in school! Give her your second button!" Krillin insisted.
"...Second button...?" Vegeta blinked, not getting it at all.
Tarble sighed and grabbed Vegeta's second button to his gakuran, and ripping it off.
"Hey-!"
"Give Bulma this button!" Tarble handed Vegeta the button, and added, "Trust me, she'll love it!"
"Fine, whatever!" Vegeta growled, palming the button in his hand. Just at that moment, all the girls came back from the bathroom, talking and laughing.
"So, what were you guys talking about?" Goku asked, causing all the girls to become completely silent.
"...Let's go, Goku," Chi-Chi grabbed Goku's ear, and pulled him along as she walked away, causing everyone to wince at his yelps.
"Krillin," 18 nodded towards him and started walking off, and like a love sick puppy, Krillin immediately followed, the both talking about their plans for the afternoon.
"See ya, Vegeta," Tarble waved, walking off with Celeria, searching for Turles and Gure.
Bulma turned towards Vegeta and smiled, "So what do you wanna do now?"
"Let's go over my house, my mother should have lunch ready by now," Vegeta said. And so, the both walked out of high school, and went on their way.
"KAKAROOOOT!" Brolly screamed as he rammed his head into the side of the school building, yet both of them ignored his tantrum and continued on.
While Bulma was walking, she noticed something hard in her hand. She opened it to reveal Vegeta's button, and as she looked towards him, she noticed he was avoiding her gaze with a faint blush on his cheeks.
Bulma pocketed the button, and then suddenly grabbed Vegeta's arm with a smile, "Pick up the pace, I'm getting hungry! No, carry me! I'm getting tired!"
"...Tch." Vegeta reluctantly picked up Bulma (princess style), and started flying home, listening to her excitedly chat about her classes.
'Spoiled brat...' He thought to himself.
"Aw maan..." Beat solemnly moved up with the line, moping about his bad encounter with Vegeta.
"Hey, why didn't you sign up yet?" Note, his girlfriend, walked up to him, complete with her schedule and agenda.
"Well...I kinda irritated a Sophomore..." Beat nervously chuckled, causing Note to shake her head.
"Well, it can't be helped..." She shrugged, getting into line beside him, "I might as well stay in line with you until you're done registering,"
"Wow, thanks!" Beat smiled, then noticed more groaning behind him. Both turned to see Erito, Basaku, Forte, Viola, Kagyu, and Froze groaning in pain behind them.
"I hate Sophomores..." All of them groaned at once.
Next Time: First Day of 10th Grade
A/N: Sorry I'm a day late! The first week of school was really crazy for me! But, welcome to Sophomore Saga! I have lots of plans for this fic (*Hint- More Dragon Ball Super Characters*-Hint*), but this is where I start to tone down the action a bit and focus more on the main characters, Bulma and Vegeta.
