Fic 100 Chapter 10: The Battle and The Climax, a dragon ball z fanfic

WARNING: This chapter is very, VERY long. It's 156kb in in notepad form. That's the size of three normal-sized chapters combined. Because of its super-long-length, I suggest either reading this chapter in chunks, or making sure you have some snacks with you because of how long it will take to finish. (sweatdrops) I apologize for how long the chapter is. Hope you enjoy it though! –Chuquita :)

Quote of the Week: -from "Veggienapped!" Part 6 (Written December of 2000)
" Ahhhhhhh. " Vegeta immerged from the bathroom in his boxers, then stretched, a content look on his face as he rubbed his hair, which was now back into it's orignal form. Vegeta smiled, then glanced around the room. His eyes widened, " THEY'RE GONE! " he gawked, " KAKOROT! WHERE ARE YOU! " Vegeta ran about the room, " Oh no. " he gasped, :What if they left WITHOUT ME: Vegeta ran to the window & grabbed the bars on it to see Goku & the others walking toward their spaceship.

" KAKOROT! " Vegeta screamed, " WHERE ARE YOU GOING! "

" Oh, Hi Vegeta! " Goku waved, " You done yet? "

" YES I'M DONE! YOU'RE NOT GOING TO LEAVE ME ALONE WITH THESE "CREATURES"..are you? " Vegeta said, his voice wavering a little.

" Course not! " Goku smiled, then transported himself into Vegeta's room, " Now just hold on. " he said, sticking his hand out as Vegeta narrowed his eyes.

" Kakorot, there is NO WAY I am holding your hand! " Vegeta sneered and turned the other direction, Goku stared at him, confused.

Chuey's Corner:
Vegeta: (sweatdrops) I've come a long way from simply not wanting to even touch you.
Goku: (glomps Veggie tightly) Yes you have:)
Vegeta: (flushes red)
Brolli: (grumbles, annoyed)
Chuquita: (grins) Welcome to Part 10, everybody!
Goku: (hugs Veggie closer) HOORAY!
Vegeta: Eep!
Chuquita: I've looked forward to writing this chapter for a while for it contains the GREAT BIG SUPER-BATTLE!
Goku: And the climax and level 1, 2, or 3.
Vegeta: (twitches) Please don't mention that number to me. (turns pale blue)
Goku: Umm, oh-kay. (sweatdrops)
Vegeta: (to Chu) So, have you decided yet?
Chuquita: (takes deep breath) Ah...no.
Vegeta: ...
Goku: ...
Brolli: (whispers to Chu) Level 1.
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) '.';;
Vegeta: I'm open to either 1 or 2.
Goku: ...
Vegeta: Kakarrotto?
Goku: Umm... (cheesy grin) Which is which again?
Vegeta: WAHH! (falls over) (nervous laugh) You had me worried there for a second, Kakarrotto.
Goku: Aww, I'm sorry I worried you Veggie. (smiles)
Vegeta: (to Chu) Kakarrotto agrees with me that either "Level" 1 or 2 would work comfortably for our purely-platonic relationship.
Chuquita: I'm well aware of that, Veggie.
Vegeta: A..afterall, Level 3 is dangerous and untested unsafe waters. We could go without that despite the number of reviewers who want to see, ah, certain things.
Chuquita: Umm..
Vegeta: I mean, you can find drawings and stories by other people containing the stuff of Level 3 elsewhere, right?
Chuquita: True...
Vegeta: (pleading smile) So you'll use Level 2?
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) I DUNNO!
Vegeta: (stubborn pout) Ohhhh, you never should've mentioned this "levels" stuff to other people in the first place! Then we could've just gone with Level 2 and I'd be safe and not have to speak words of non-platonicosity to Kakarrotto!
Chuquita: I'm sorry Veggie. I didn't know it'd escalate into, ah, this?
Vegeta: (stares at her lamely) Ya know you should've told someone who didn't have such a good memory instead of someone who does.
Chuquita: (nervous laugh) Hey, don't worry about it. Afterall that scene won't be til the end of the chapter so I still got about 4 or 5 days to decide; maybe even 6. It all depends on how big this chapter turns out to be and how much time I'll have to write by the weekend since I work Friday and Saturday, 'n Sunday's Easter so I'll probably end up going to Grandma's...
Vegeta: ...can I write the climax?
Chuquita: GAH! NO! Besides you don't know how to..
Goku: ..yes Veggie does! (happily) Veggie wrote a play a long while a-go, remember Veggie?
Vegeta: (smirks) Indeed I did, my favorite peasant of all.
Goku: (beams) Hee-
Chuquita: If I let you write it it would consist of you suddenly regaining your memory, turning out to be the real densetsu, frying Brolli with a single ki-blast and then save everyone all at once.
Vegeta: (happily) And then there would be a parade!
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) ...
Goku: I do enjoy balloons, Veggie. :)
Chuquita: Ah, let's just start the chapter oh-kay?
Vegeta: (rapidly waved "Level 1 OR 2" flag in the air) GO LEVELS THAT AREN'T 3!
Chuquita: (sweatdrops) ...
Goku: (also sweatdrops) ...

Summary: Oh Veggie, where are you? One night Vegeta mysteriously disappears, and Goku senses something is terribly wrong. While its thought that the ouji has may have gone out into space to purchase a Veggietine's Day gift for his favorite peasant, several of the group begin to have doubts, especially when they're unable to contact Vegeta at all. There's something disturbing about the ouji vanishing, and when Turles discovers Vegeta's been kidnapped; everyone fears for the worst. Who would possibly be powerful enough to kidnap someone as strong as Vegeta? And how will they find him even when his ki itself is undetectable by Kaio-sama? To what lengths would Goku go to get his Veggie back, and is he capable of breaking the rules to do so?

" GASP! You mean I am going to be a Grandpa! " Goku gasped as Gohan, Videl, and a widely-grinning yet still slightly

frazzled Chi-Chi stood before him.

" Mmm-hmm! Isn't it WONDERFUL, Goku-san! " Chi-Chi hugged him tightly, " Our very first grandchild! " she mused, then

glanced back at Gohan and Videl with narrowed eyes, " The first of many, I'm assuming. "

" Ah... " the couple sweatdropped.

Chi-Chi went back to daydreaming again, " Oh this is so exciting! It makes me want to have another child of my own! "

she said, then paused, " Am I still able to have children? "

" I dunno. " Goku blinked.

" Well, in any case I'll concentrate on that later. " Chi-Chi nodded thoughtfully, " SO! " she turned to Videl, " Do

you know the gender yet? "

" No, I still have to wait another month or so to find out. " Videl laughed nervously.

" If its a boy we're going to name him after Piccolo-san. " Gohan smiled.

" Aww, we could nickname him Pi-kun! You know, Piccolo is "Jr" to his father already. " Chi-Chi said, " And if its a

girl you could name her after me! "

:That poor child: a smirking voice that sounded identical to Vegeta's said in Goku's head.

" Heeheeheehee, Veggie. "

Chi-Chi eyeballed him for a moment, " You oh-kay over there? "

" Hm? " Goku blinked.

" Hey Kakarroujo! " Bura tugged on Goku's pantleg, " We should get some clothes together for Toussan! You know, since

he's probably been wearing the same boxers for almost two months now. That doesn't sound pleasant. "

" It sounds kinda smelly too. " Goku sweatdropped, imagining Vegeta squirming uncomfortably in a mud-splattered pair

of boxers. He grinned, " Oh-kay Bura! "

/dl

" Alright, so we've got Toussan's boots, the little blue gi, Toussan's "SEME" t-shirt to go overtop of the gi, the

wristbands from the gi, and of course, " Bura whipped out a brilliant red object, " Toussan's royal saiyajin no ouji cape! "

" HOORAY! " Goku cheered, then wagged his tail, " Veggie's cape is so cool. "

" A nice semetastic outfit if I've ever seen one! " the demi-saiyajin smiled victoriously.

" I wish I had a cape like Veggie's...only mine would be orange like my gi. " Goku said, rubbing Vegeta's cape

between his fingers and promptly freaking out the Veggie-germs living on it with a small invasion of kaka-germs.

" You know, the saiyajin no oujo wears a cape as well. " Bura said hintingly, " I bet if you asked Toussan to make

you his oujo he'd give you that pretty orange cape to wear with your uniform. "

" Bura I can't be Veggiesoujo! It re-quires acts of non-platonicness a..and I cannot break rule number 2. " Goku

gasped, flustered and starting to blush.

" -Attention fellow semes and crewmates alike! This is your Captain speaking!- " Turles's voice came over the

intercom.

" Yeah, Captain of Ukefying Toussan. " Bura grumbled.

" -Everyone is to report to the docking bay in 5 minutes. That is all.- " the intercom went silent.

" Hee- " Goku picked up the bundle of clothes, then tied them up with a nearby rope, " Time to save my Veggie and

give him his clothes! "

/dl

" Are you sure gathering us all in one room like this is a good idea? " Piccolo cocked an eyebrow as the group stood

in the docking bay.

" Heh, if we were battling any other enemy, I'd say no. " Turles smirked, " However, Brolli never learned how to

sense ki. That's why I believe he put up this particular type of barrier around his ship, so no one could have the advantage

of sensing him. Unfortunately.. " the evil type-3 saiyajin picked up a nearby box, " This barrier goes for inside the ship

too. According to a few of his security files that I happened to break in to, even if we were to make it inside the ship the

waves being emitted from inside the ship..which are identical to those on the outside..would block our ki-sensing abilities

altogether. "

" You mean we're going to have to find the Ouji the old-fashioned way! " Chi-Chi gawked.

Turles popped open the box, " The SEMI-old-fashioned way, my fellow Kakarrotto-as-seme fan. SCOUTERS! " he grinned.

" OHHH! " Goku took an scouter with an orange glass-plate out of the box.

" It'd make a lot more sense and be much more efficient than having Kakarrotto walk around tugging on his ear and us

following the sound of Vegeta-san yelping from in mild pain. "

Goku put the orange scouter on, " How Veggie-esque! " he said with delight.

" Bulma's modified scouter should be alright. " Turles pointed out, " She'll just need to adjust the frequency to

the rest of us. That way we can all communicate, even those of us who don't have telepathy. "

" Is there one for Toussan? " Bura looked into the now-empty box.

" Of course there is. " Turles smirked and held up a light pink scouter with a bright pink glass, " Vegeta-san gets

the "Uke" edition! " he teased.

Bura sent a death-glare at him, then whipped around to face Goku, " Kakarroujo trade scouters with Toussan! "

" Oh-kay! " Goku chirped.

" Sorry! " Turles held the scouter above his head, " You can't do that. All sales are final. "

" Hn... " a vein bulged on the demi-saiyajin's forehead, " Then give ME the pink one and I'll trade Toussan for my

light blue one. "

" Nope. "

" ... "

" Fine, give it here. " Bura sighed. Turles handed the scouter over. She whispered to Goku, " I'll trade my scouter

with Toussan's once we find him. Something uke-ish and pink is the last thing Toussan needs right now. "

Goku cheerfully nodded, :I wish someone would tell me what an uke is...: he mentally sweatdropped.

" Alright, now that that's, umm, decided.. " Bulma sweatdropped, " How are we going to go about this? "

" Brolli would notice a group of 17 people wandering around his ship. It might be better if we split up. " Piccolo

suggested.

" Hn, well since Goten and Trunks are planning to fuse that would make 16, so 4 groups of 4. " Bulma nodded

thoughtfully.

" I'll go with my son, Videl, and future-grandchild. " Piccolo said cooly.

" Can we come with you too Gohan? " Goten grinned.

" Sure. " Gohan smiled.

" Oh-kay, " Bulma pulled out a small notepad, " Gohan, Videl, Piccolo, and Gotenks are Group 1. Anyone else have a

group formed yet? "

Veggy, V.2, Veggie-ghosts 1 and 2 all raised their hands.

Bulma sweatdropped, :An entire group of Vegetas...: " H..hai. Veggy, V.2, One, and Two will be Group 2. "

" I'll be going with Goku-san. "

" I'll be going with Kakarrotto. "

" I'll be going with Kakarroujo. "

Bulma sweatdropped to see Chi-Chi and Turles each holding up one of a disoriented Goku's arms while Bura held onto

the side of his armor, " Umm, I really don't know if that's safe or not for Son-kun's emotional state right now. "

" I am SO confused... " Goku murmured, still looking bewildered.

" M..maybe you three should move to other groups. " Bulma laughed nervously.

" You can't kick me out of Goku-san's group. I'm his wife! " Chi-Chi snorted, " Besides I have a thing or two to say

to the Ouji. "

" Alright Chi-Chi. " Bulma sighed.

" I could go with my lackey's group if Chi-Chi gets to stay here and reinforce Kakarrotto's semeness. " Turles

smirked over at the group Vejitto, Gogeta, and Raditsu appeared to already be forming.

Raditsu's eyes went wide, " GAH? NO WAY! " he yelped at the large grin on Turles face, then rapidly looked around

for a forth group-member, " AHA! " he grabbed Mirai by the black tank-top, " Sorry no room left! Mirai's coming with us! "

Raditsu grinned back nervously.

" I am? " Mirai sweatdropped.

" Welcome a-board! " Vejitto shook Mirai's hand.

" Group 3; Vejitto, Gogeta, Raditsu, and Mirai. " Bulma scribbled down, then looked up to see there were 5 people

remaining, not four, " Uh... "

" You forgot to count yourself, Kaasan. " Bura laughed nervously.

" Hm? OH! Ah..sorry 'bout that. " Bulma said, " I'm a little on-edge because of how close we are to getting Vegeta

back. "

" Does this mean we all get to stay in Kakarroujo's group? " the demi-saiyajin smiled.

" Hai. " Bulma sighed, then nodded determindly, " But I'm coming with you four. We can't have Goku all nervous and

jittery about his platonic feelings for Vegeta if we're spotted and attacked by Brolli. "

" Purely-platonic. "

" Hm? " she looked up at Goku.

" V..Veggie likes to say they're purely-platonic. " a flushline appeared over Goku's nose as he looked away, " It,

it is just to make sure. "

" Ah... "

/dl

" ▫Screw▫screw▫screw▫ ▫PLOP▫ " the lid between the two ships came off and Goku poked his head up into the room.

" Do you see anything? " Chi-Chi whispered.

Goku looked around to see a fairly large yet empty room with a single emergancy vehicle in the corner. He sniffed the

air, " No, but I smell VEGGIE! " he beamed at the scent. It wasn't that fresh but it was fresher than the majority of

Vegeta-scented items he'd sniffed in the past couple months. Goku promptly hopped out and dashed over to the source of the

smell; the ship. He got to the door and gasped. There were ten long deep marks going across the side of the vehicle from

the driver's-side door to the end of the ship.

" Signs of a struggle! " Veggy gasped. He placed his hands in the grooves to see his fingers and thumb matched the

size of the marks.

" They're Veggie's... " Goku said in awe, " Veggie tried to use this ship to e-scape but the Big Meanie caught him. "

he deduced.

" Well with a ship this massive I can see why. " Turles said, wandering around, " Fruitless effort to out-fly this

ship really. " he thumped his foot against the floor, " It's made of a light yet compact material perfect for both speed and

security. However its very expensive. " he smirked.

Goku opened the driver's side door only to be blasted with the smaller saiyajin's scent, " Mmmm..Veggie. " he

sighed.

" Goku-san? "

" EEP! " Goku froze. He spun around to face Chi-Chi, " I was not thinking anything naughty Chi-chan I promise I

wasn't! " the large saiyajin rapidly waved his arms in the air while flushed in the cheeks.

Chi-Chi watched him with concern, " Are you sure you're oh-kay? "

" Yes. No. I dunno. " he started to sweat.

" Umm, you know what? I don't think we're going to find any clues staying here in the docking bay, we should head

into the main part of the ship and start our search. " Bulma said, turning our scouter on. Those remaining who hadn't done

so yet did so now.

Gogeta walked up to Goku and gave him a quick glomp, " Be careful, Kaasan. "

" Aw, I will Goggie. " Goku smiled.

" We have confidence in you, Toussan! " Vejitto said happily.

" Aww, thank you Ji-chan. I will do my best! "

" And remember, " Bulma said as she walked up to the door leading into the main part of the ship, " If you find any

clues; if you find VEGETA, you're to contact the rest of us immediately. We'll make this room our checkpoint so don't bother

coming after the rest of us after you've found Vegeta, we'll all meet up back here in this room. Got it? "

/dl

" Ahhhh! " Vegeta stretched contently infront of the mirror in his room. He had on his briefs and a pair of slippers.

The little ouji tossed the towel he'd used to dry of his hair off his shoulders. He smiled at his three bangs in the mirror,

having let them down recently he decidedly liked them. They reminded him of someone, though he didn't know who, " Today's

the day, Nango! " he said happily, still using his "little" voice, " Burori-sama's birthday! I'll finally be the official

saiyajin no otokohime! I'm so excited! " the small saiyajin gushed.

:And I can be with my Kyohaku-chan-: Nango sighed dreamily.

The ouji picked his black training uniform on and slipped his slippers off, then started to put the uniform on,

" Tonight I'll get to wear my ceremonial uniform. I can't wait! It's so soft and elaborate...though I'm still a little

put-off by that one color... "

:Pink: Nango suggested.

" Hai, that one. " Vegeta pointed to him and started to put his gloves and boots on, then the armor and cape, " For

some reason it actually...frightens me. " he had to pause a moment to pick out the right word.

:And the rest of it doesn't bother you: the tail said incrediously.

" Nope! Not a bit! I like the rest of it, it's very nice. " the ouji flushed, " Why does THAT bother you? " he asked,

curious.

:I'm...not sure: Nango mentally narrowed his eyes as if trying to remember something. A brief image flashed through

his mind of something light brown and furry, :Bee...Bibi...:

" Nango? " the ouji tapped him on the tip.

:HUH: the tail jolted to attention:What happened:

" Haha..you kinda spaced out there for a moment. " Vegeta laughed.

:Oh, right:

Vegeta inspected himself in the mirror again. The ouji smiled, then felt a sudden tingle in his right ear. He

clutched it and saw a flash of orange. Motionlessly he turned his head towards the bedroom door, " ... "

/dl

" ▫Sniff▫sniff▫sniff▫sniff▫sniff▫sniff▫ "

" Are, you sure this is safe? " Bura asked uneasily.

" Perfectly so. Goku-san does it all the time while out hunting. " Chi-Chi said proudly, " He's got a very talented

nose. "

Goku was bent down on the floor sniffing out Vegeta's trail. He lifted his head up to see a fork in the hallway,

" That way! " he pointed down the left corridor.

" You know, you're a type-3 saiyajin too, you must have a super-powerful sense of smell like Son-kun's... " Bulma

started out.

" Oh, I'm doing my part. " Turles smirked.

" What part? " Bulma looked over at him, then sweatdropped to see he was wearing a large t-shirt over his armor

that read in big bold dark red print "LEVEL 3", " ...yah. You're doing your part alright. " she laughed nervously.

Goku waddled down the hallway with Bibishii eagerly swaying in the air behind him until he came to a large, fancily

decorated door. He stood up and stared at it with sparkling eyes, " He's in here! VEGGIE'S IN HERE! " the large saiyajin

gushed. He grabbed the Brolli-hand-sized-handle and pulled the door open. Vegeta was standing about 10 feet away staring

straight at him.

" ... "

" Veggie. " Goku choked out, his eyes tearing up, " VEGGIE! " he cried out and ran up to the ouji, glomping him

tightly, " OH VEGGIE I MISSED YOU SO MUCH! I THOUGHT I'D NEVER SEE YOU AGAIN! " the large saiyajin sobbed, " I never wanna

be away from my Veggie ever again. "

Vegeta blinked in bewilderment as his head sat perched on Goku's shoulder. He looked past him to the others standing

in the doorway.

" Something's wrong. " Chi-Chi whispered.

" Oh my Veggie Veggie Veggie who is my favorite I'm so happy! " Goku sniffled, rubbing the ouji's back, " I thought

about you every second you were gone and I had so many confusing thoughts but that's all over now cuz you're back and I found

you and now we can go home and have a very special be-lated Veggietine's Day and we'll spar at our sparring grounds like we

used to and eat yummy snacks together like we used to and I'll be really really good Veggie I promise! "

" ... " Vegeta's face started to flush red as a vaguely familiar rush of something swept over him. Unbeknownst to the

ouji hundreds of squealing kaka-germs squiggled onto his body to the places the previous germs had been, " You feel nice. You

feel really nice. "

" Aww, THANK YOU little Veggie. " Goku smiled, still hugging him.

Bulma rubbed her ears, " Why is Vegeta using his "little" voice? He only uses that when he wants you to feel guilty

for him. "

Chi-Chi checked her stopwatch, which read 2 minutes and 16 seconds so far, :Come on Goku-san wrap it up:

" You're the one from my dreams, aren't you? " the ouji sighed contently.

" Uhh...dreams, Veggie? " Goku cocked an eyebrow.

" Most of the time I couldn't see you, but I'd recognize your voice anywhere! " he stared up at Goku with wide eyes.

" Er, Veggie oh-kay? " Goku looked disturbed.

" You're the one who's going to save me from a huge terrifying monster! My knight in shining armor! My HERO! " Vegeta

gushed overdramatically with little sparkles floating around him.

" ... " Bura's jaw hit the floor as she stared at the scene bug-eyed while beside her Turles jogged energetically in

the air while cheerfully humming a saiyajin mating song.

" o.O " Goku blinked, his face bright pink. He shook it off and quickly placed a hand on the side of Vegeta's face

while sticking a thermometer into the ouji's mouth, " Veggie doesn't FEEL overly warm...? "

" I think all he needs is a good slap across the face. " Chi-Chi cracked her knuckles, " All this frilly pink decor

must've gotten to him. "

" I find this room disturbing and I'm ME. " Bura muttered, uncomfortable.

" Besides you're past the hugging limit, it's 3 minutes 10 seconds and counting. " she held up the stopwatch.

" Three is such a magical number. " Turles grinned.

Bulma cautiously apporached them, " Vegeta? "

The ouji turned to face her, " I knew it. "

" Huh? "

Goku continued to hold the little ouji while he shifted to face Bulma.

" I knew it wasn't a soft "ge"...I mean, it is a soft "ge", but I knew it wasn't pronounced "Vejita". " Vegeta stared

desperately at her as if trying to remember something.

" Vegeta, are you alright? You don't...sound like yourself. " she said, worried. Goku had his face buried in the

smaller saiyajin's hair.

:...he doesn't remember. Veggie doesn't remember...:

" How am I supposed to sound? "

" Well, for one thing, your voice is supposed to be about half a dozen octaves deeper. " Bulma said, on the verge of

freaking out.

" But, this is how I always talk. " the little ouji said innocently.

Turles looked around the room, " Man, look at this place. It's like Ukeness EXTREME in here. " he walked up to the

closet and opened it. The evil type-3 saiyajin stared at it for a moment, then burst into entertained laughter, " BWAHAHAHA!

Hey check out this wardrobe Brolli gave Vegeta-san! It's all delicate little uke dresses! "

" I'd rather not. " Bura muttered, then got up her courage and walked up to Vegeta, " Hey Toussan, look what

Kakarroujo and I brought you? It's your SEME t-shirt. " she said in a sing-song voice, holding it up, " Which you wear in

order to inform CERTAIN PEOPLE that you are a 100 percent Seme when it comes to both platonic and non-platonic

relationships? " she held it up, " See how nice and HANDSOME and NOT-PRETTY it would look on you. " Bura gave a nervous

cheesy grin.

" ▫Hip▫...▫hip▫hip▫... " Goku sniffled, holding on even tighter, :Veggie doesn't remember me. I came all this

way...and Veggie doesn't remember me: " Maybe I should start from the beginning. " he said quietly.

" You're going to tell me a story? " Vegeta said eagerly.

" Mmm-hmm. " Goku nodded.

" ... "

" Will you carry me to the bed? " the ouji said sweetly, clasping his hands together.

" WAHHH! " Goku fell over.

/dl

" Pulse and heartrate a normal. So's his tempeture. " Bulma took the stethoscope off Vegeta's now-naked chest. She

had her thumb on his wrist. Vegeta was back down to his briefs again. His bangs neatly covered 99 percent of his headband.

" And here's Veggie 'n me at Christmas, and here we are on Halloween, here's one from Veggie's birthday party, this

one we took on New Years, and these two we took while sparring one day, " Goku cheerfully rattled off as he let Vegeta look

through the photo album on his cellphone. The little ouji was snuggled against Goku's arm.

" Hmmmm.. :) "

" And here's one of Veggie in his saiyajin no ouji armor. Veggie looks very brave in it. " Goku smiled.

" You do realize the Ouji's in ALL of your cellphone photos and I'm only in ONE, right? " Chi-Chi asked, slightly

annoyed.

" Oh? Sorry Chi-chan here let me re-medy that! " Goku held the phone at her and snapped a picture.

" ▫CLICK▫ "

" GAH? I DIDN'T MEAN RIGHT NOW! "

" Sorry. " he sweatdropped.

" We look very happy together. " Vegeta said warmly, then paused, " But, how can I be the saiyajin no ouji? That's

going to be Burori-sama's title. "

" HAH! "Sama"... " Turles scoffed.

" Veggie does not remember that he's the saiyajin no ouji either? Or that the Big Meanie kidnapped him? " Goku

tilted his head sadly.

" He...kidnapped me? " Vegeta blinked, surprised, " B..but Burori-sama has always been so nice to me, doing lots of

things to help me. He makes me food and bought all these nice clothes for me and cares about me so very much! " the ouji

exclaimed overdramatically, then looked away, depressed, " Are you saying I've been lied to all this time? "

" Yes. " Bulma said flatly.

The little ouji's eyes watered up in shock and he turned away, sobbing quietly.

" Oh Veggie! " Goku said with concern, holding the smaller saiyajin on his lap.

" Errr... " a vein bulged on Chi-Chi's forehead, " GEEZ OUJI WHAT DID HE DO TO YOU? " she gawked, " You don't CRY!

At least unless you're on the verge of death..but still, it's, not YOU! " she sputtered, disturbed at the sight.

" It's not? " Vegeta looked over at her with innocent teary eyes, severely creeping Chi-Chi out.

" A, of course not! " she hopped off the side of the bed, " You're the "Great and Powerful Saiyajin no Ouji"! You

have more "pride" than you know what to do with not to mention your ego! "

" Are you sure you don't know what happened to you, Vegeta? " Bulma asked desperately.

" Could be the brain-freezer... " Turles trailed off.

" No, I have no record of anyone using it the night Vegeta was kidnapped. Besides Brolli's footprints would've

appeared in the lab back when we searched the house. " she sighed.

" I did fall down. "

Bulma's head jolted to attention and she turned to face Vegeta, who was now stationed comfortably on Goku's lap.

:Naughty thoughts naughty thoughts naughty thoughts...: Goku was sweating like crazy and pleading said thoughts

would disappear.

" You FELL? " she stared at him incrediously.

" Hai. Two weeks ago I fell and hit my head. A, at least that's what Burori-sama said. I remember falling but I

don't recall any impact. " the ouji said honestly.

Vegeta's tail twitched around against Goku's stomach. Goku was now gripping intensely onto the matress and his

breathing was starting to increase.

:Nango-kun:

The tail stopped his movements and looked over to see a light brown female tail tilting her tip at him.

:Do, you remember anything: Bibishii asked hopefully.

Nango continued to stare at her:I...know you. Your name...your name is Bibishii:

:AHHH: she squealed and glomped him, :Oh NANGO-KUN you DO remember:

:And..we have a friendship of some kind:

:WAHHH-: Bibishii fell over, :NO! We're married! I'm your wife:

Nango gasped, :GASP:

" Hmm.. " Bulma pressed her fingers against part of Vegeta's skull, " I don't see any damage to this part of the

skull...maybe I should get an x-ray just to be sure. "

" And just WHERE are we going to find an x-ray machine around here? " Chi-Chi said skeptically.

" Simple! " Bulma whipped out a capsule and tossed it to the ground to reveal said device, " Ta-da! An x-ray

machine! "

The others sweatdropped.

" Alright Vegeta, put on this hospital gown and climb onto the machine belly-up. " Bulma held out a dark teal smock.

The saiyajin hopped off Goku's lap and held the smock up, then turned to Goku, " Could you help me put this on, ah.."

" Kakarrotto. "

" Kakarrotto. " Vegeta repeated slowly. Goku smiled, " WOW, you're named after the legendary saiyajin paradise? I can

see why! " he grinned.

" ... " Goku flushed again, " Haha..ha...it also sounds like carrots...you know, carrots? " he laughed nervously.

" Mmm-hmm. They're the orange vegetables I'm not allowed to eat. Infact Burori-sama doesn't allow ANYTHING orange on

his ship. " the ouji thought outloud, then smirked, " Between you and me, Kakarrotto, I adore the color. I find it very...

attractive. " a long purr rippled out of him.

" ...CHI-CHAN! " Goku wailed in panic up at the ceiling.

" I miss the non-mushy Ouji that I could both freakout and shut up at the same time simply by pushing you at him. "

Chi-Chi said sourly.

" Hey, there's probably a good explaination for all this. Afterall if Brolli's been lying to Vegeta about everything

else than this head-injury thing could be a lie as well. " Bulma said, then tied Vegeta up while Chi-Chi attempted to calm

Goku down. The large saiyajin was now hiccuping like mad, " By the way for future reference until I find a way to fix your

memories; I'M your girlfriend and Son-kun's your...ah, "favorite peasant". "

" My favorite...? "

" ..PLATONICALLY! He's your favorite, platonically. " Bulma quickly exclaimed, " Now, " she calmed down, " Get on

the board and we'll see what the problem is. "

/dl

" Well, that explains it. " Bura sweatdropped at the large metal object wrapped around Vegeta's head in the x-ray.

Bulma lifted up Vegeta's bangs to expose the large golden shiny pink-jeweled headband.

" C..careful! I'm not allowed to touch that. Burori-sama's orders. " Vegeta yelped.

" It's one of those headbands the Big Meanie's father used on him to keep him from attacking me. " Goku recognized

it, " Only Veggie's looks different, and its a lot bigger. "

" I'm betting anything that the way to free Vegeta's memories is to remove this headband. It's probably surpressing

them the way Brolli's surpressed his ki. " Bulma said, proud of herself.

" Well let's get it off him already! " Chi-Chi exclaimed, reaching to grab it.

Vegeta paled, " I wouldn't touch that if I were.. "

" ..YAIYAIYAIYAIYAI! ▫THUMP▫ " Chi-Chi was zapped and promptly fell over twitching, " ...oww. "

" Heh-heh-heh. " the ouji snickered.

" VEGGIESVOICE! " Goku gushed.

" Huh? " Vegeta blinked.

" That was Veggie's voice! Veggie's real voice! "

" How do you know this "uke" voice isn't the real one and he's been using the deep one to coverup more of his natrual

ukeness? " Turles cocked an eyebrow, suspiciously.

" Don't confuse Veggie right now! " Goku pouted, then turned back to the ouji, " Veggie you just snickered in your

normal Veggie-voice! " he beamed.

" Maybe if we zap something with his headband long enough it'll run out of juice. " Chi-Chi raised her shaking arm

in the air.

" Oh-kay Veggie, try this with me. " Goku instructed, " I want you to say "ah" in the same pitch as I raise my hand.

I'll say it with you. When we get to Veggie's correct octave I'll tell you to stop. "

" Umm, alright. " Vegeta sweatdropped.

Goku held his arm up above him, " Ahhhhhhhhhh... " he said in a higher voice than normal.

" Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh... " Vegeta said even higher.

Goku slowly lowered his hand, " Ahhhhhh... "

" Ahhhhhhh... "

" Ahhhhhhh..RIGHT THERE STOP IT! " Goku said suddenly, his voice momentarily sounding identical to his dub one due to

how low he had his pitch at.

" Ah...ah... " Vegeta paused.

" Oh-kay, now I want you to try to say something at that pitch. "

" What do you want me to say? " the ouji said in his normal tone of voice, then gasped, " GAH? That's what I sound

like! "

" EEEE! " Goku squealed in his normal done and glomped him, " Now THAT'S my VEGGIE! "

" I didn't know my voice could go this deep. " Vegeta said in awe, " Wow... "

" Hee- " the larger saiyajin grinned, then held up the little blue gi, boxers, and other assorted pieces of clothing

he and Bura had brought, " Here Veggie put this on! Blue's your favorite color ya know! "

The ouji smirked and took the gi from him. He pulled the top on, " I had a feeling it wasn't pink. "

" Haha, oh no. Veggie is terrified of the color pink. " Goku laughed, " Can I help Veggie with his pants? "

" NOYOUCANT! " Chi-Chi grabbed each of Goku's arms by the wrists and held them up. Goku blinked blankly.

" Umm...I think we should just let Vegeta get dressed while I contact the others. It's best if we get off this ship

now and then find a way to get that headband off Vegeta so he can help us with one of his ingenius plots so that we can beat

Brolli. " Bulma said, pressing several buttons on her scouter and waiting for the person she was calling to pickup.

/dl

" ▫Zzt▫Zzt▫ ▫Zzt▫Zzt▫! " Mirai's scouter vibrated. He hit a button on the side, " Hello? "

" Mirai? "

" Kaasan! " the demi-saiyajin lit up. Raditsu was peeking inside a nearby door while the fusions had somehow defied

gravity. Vejitto was walking on the ceiling and Gogeta the wall to Mirai's left.

" Mirai we found your father.. "

" ..you found him! That's great! " Mirai injected.

Vejitto clicked his scouter, " We were having terr-i-ble luck, Bulma. "

" The bright side is we did find the kitchen! " Gogeta clicked his as well.

" Yup! Goggie and I had a feast on this huge strawberry cake! " Vejitto licked his chops in fond remembrance.

Gogeta contently patted his semi-full belly.

" You really shouldn't have eaten it. If Brolli found out you two ate a cake that he meant for Vegeta... " Raditsu

trailed off, grimacing at the idea of Brolli promptly beheading both fusions.

" Aww, that won't happen, Uncle Ditsu! " Vejitto laughed.

" Lucky thing we sprayed it for germs a-head of time. " Gogeta held up one of the repel bottles.

" Listen, " Bulma pushed her way back into the conversation, " I'm going to have Vegeta delivered back directly to

the ship. While I'm doing that I want you to contact the other groups. Tell them to forget the checkpoint and just come back

directly to Turles' ship. We're going to detach from Brolli's. "

" But..but we haven't even beaten him yet. " Raditsu said, confused.

" We have a more important problem on our hands right now and this one could cost us the battle if we were to go into

it right now. "

Vejitto gasped, " T..Toussan's not HURT, is he? "

" What? No, Son-kun's fine. Just contact the others and meet us in no less than 5 minutes. "

" Gotcha Kaasan. " Mirai nodded confidently, then took his fingers off the button. He turned to the others, " Well,

you heard her. Raditsu, you contact Veggy's group, I'll contact Gohan's. Vejitto and Gogeta I want you two to find the

quickest exit back to the docking bay, got it? "

" Oh-kay! "

" Oh-kay! " the fusions said in unison. They both hopped back onto the floor and dashed down the hall, Raditsu and

Mirai following them while calling the other groups.

/dl

" Mmm-hmm mmm-hmm...really? " Veggy said as he held his hand up to his scouter as if holding a phone while he,

V.2, and the two Veggie-ghosts headed down the hall, " Alright, sure I'll tell them, I.. " the android froze. a cannon

popped out each of his arms as he swung around and fired two missles at the object behind him, " YAAAH! "

V.2 and the ghosts turned around as the smoke started to clear.

" What was THAT for! " V.2 gawked.

" ..ah...ahh...ah... " Veggy stared nervously ahead.

A large figure stepped out of the smoke, " Why hello there my little Vejita-by-products. " Brolli smirked, cracking

his knuckles.

" WHOA! HE'S HUGE! " V.2's eyes bugged out. He turned to Veggy, " Is this the guy we're supposed to be fighting! "

Veggy nodded with a gulp.

" Such a shame, you know if you hadn't dragged all your friends out here Vejita-bot I wouldn't have to kill them. "

Brolli said with a sigh.

" What's a SHAME is that YOU kidnapped Vegeta against his will! " Veggy pointed angrily at him.

" Vejita's much happier here with me than he was back on EARTH where he didn't fit in; with KAKARROTTO who's all

wrong for him. "

" HOW DARE YOU INSULT KAKARROTTO! " V.2 snarled, bursting into ssj. He flew at Brolli, who simply stood there,

" HAAAAAAAAAAAA..OOF! " with speed beyond what Veggy and the Veggie-ghosts could see Brolli snatched V.2's dark-gray scouter

as he was flying past him and elbowed the clone with his free arm, knocking him to the ground. V.2 groaned and sat up,

" ERRR, YOU KUSOTARE! " he snapped, then noticed his vision appeared normal, " Huh? " V.2 reached for his scouter, " AHHHH! "

" Now let's see here.. " Brolli said casually as he looked about for the highest ki reading, " Ah, trying to steal

Vejita off the ship, are you Kakarrotto? " he chuckled, amused. Brolli shouted at the ceiling, " COMPUTER SEAL OFF THE

DOCKING BAY IMMEDIATELY! "

" -Docking Bay Sealed- " the computer announced.

" Good, " the densetsu said, then turned back to face the four Vegetas, " I'll come back and deal with you later,

destroying those in the likeness of Vejita make my stomach turn in vile self-disgust. " he turned to leave.

" YAAAH! " the Veggie-ghosts lundged at him and knocked him over, holding onto Brolli's ankles with as much force as

they were capable of without blowing themselves up. Veggy burst into ssj and V.2 into ssj2. The two of them walked up to

Brolli and each formed a ball of ki in their hands. The duo glared furiously at Brolli, who only laughed at their expressions

" You're all so naive, just like Vejita. " he grinned, " COMPUTER! 800x Earth's Gravity! "

" HAH! You can't do that! This isn't the gravity..WAHH! " V.2 was about to scoff when he and Veggy suddenly hit the

floor in pain. Brolli easily hopped to his feet.

" B...but how! " Veggy gawked.

" I have gravitational sensors in all the rooms of my ship. I merely decided to use the same program as that of the

gravity room as a...precaution. " he strolled out of the room, " See you later, Vejitas. "

" OOOH! YOU CAN'T JUST WALK AWAY WITHOUT EVEN BATTLING US FIRST YOU, YOU..AAUGH! " V.2 sputtered in anger. He turned

to Veggy, " Give me a boost! NOW! "

Veggy blinked, " A...boost? But I can barely get up myself! " he sweatdropped.

" Well we need to do something! "

" Ohhh, it's too heavy... " Veggie-ghost 1 whimpered.

" If we move we're very likely to explode. " Veggie-ghost 2 gulped.

" Hmm.. " Veggy looked around. He struggling positioned himself onto his hands and brought out the cannons.

" What are you doing? " Veggie-ghost 1 asked.

" I'm going to try and blast myself out back out of this hallway. " the android said determindly, looking over his

shoulder, then smiled cheesily at the others, " You should duck. "

" Uhhh.. " V.2 paled.

" ▫POW▫! " the missles shot out of Veggy's cannons as he flew back and upwards. The two ghosts screamed as the

missles headed towards them, then promptly leaned to either side, just dodging them.

" Wahh- "

" Wahh- " they flopped onto their sides, dazed.

Veggy flew a good 20 feet or so before the gravity around him lifted and he hit the ceiling, then bounced off it onto

the floor. The android tumbled a few more feet before landing, " Oof! Ohhhhh. " he groaned, stumbling to his feet only to

perk up when he realized what he could once again do, " I can stand! I made it! "

" What about us! " Veggie-ghost 2 called out from across the room.

Veggy gave him a thumbs-up, " Don't worry, I have a plan. "

/dl

" ▫Tap▫tap▫tap▫tap▫ " Brolli walked casually down the hall towards Goku's location on the scouter. He hummed random

music notes to himself as he went. The densetsu rubbed his non-covered eye, " I don't know HOW anyone can wear these things

it's very visually-confusing. "

" HALT EVIL VILLIAN! "

" Huh? " Brolli blinked, then looked down to see two oddly-dressed figures leap before him.

" TO UPHOLD JUSTICE! " Gohan struck a pose

" AND TO STOP ALL EVIL IN ITS TRACKS! " Videl struck a different one.

" YOUR MALICIOUS ACTIONS WILL NOT GO WITHOUT REPERATION! " Gohan did a leap into the air while Videl moved around.

The duo grabbed each other's hands as if they were about to do the tango.

" BEHOLD THE POWER OF THE GREAT SAIYAMAN! "

" AND THE GREAT SAIYAWOMAN! "

Brolli stared at them blankly.

" ... "

" What the hell was that? "

" WAHHHHH! " Gohan and Videl nearly fell over.

" Well, ah, all things aside we won't allow you to stop Toussan's mission. " Gohan exclaimed boldly, then burst into

mystic form.

" Really? " Brolli smirked and went ssj1, " Well if you're so eager to help steal my Vejita...HAAAAAAAAA! " he flew

at Gohan with his hands together into a fist and threw it at Gohan, who lept up into the air while Brolli's fists slammed

down into the floor and making a large dent. He swung his body to the side and kicked Gohan up through the ceiling. The

densetsu got to his feet and prepared to fly up after him only to be hit by a tremendous ki-blast that not only knocked him

backwards but destroyed about half of the ceiling as well.

" Heh. " Gohan hovered there, his hands still in kamehameha position.

" Can't stop you that easily, can I? " Brolli cracked his knuckles.

" HAA! " Videl sent a kick to the back of Brolli's head. Just as he turned something swiped the scouter off his face.

" NANI? " he reached for his ear.

" Looking for this? "

Brolli glared over to his left to see Gotenks standing there boastfully while tossing the scouter in the air.

" This is V.2's scouter isn't it? " the fusion said, smirking defiantly at the densetsu.

" You don't have to worry about him or the other Vejita by-products. I'm saving their demise for later. You see, the

ghosts I can simply step on and their explode, and the Vejita-bot can be taken apart, but the clone I'm going to have to

actually kill and that's going to be a rather unpleasant experiance for me. "

" FOR YOU? " Videl scoffed.

" You're not going to be killing anyone today. " Piccolo walked up to Brolli, " SUPER SIZE! " the already-tall

namekian grew to 10 times his previous size, making sure he enlarged himself just enough to fit and move around in the

hallway.

" SUPER-GHOST KAMIKAZE ATTACK! " Gotenks shouted, then spat out 10 ghosts.

Brolli smiled wryly at the giant Piccolo, 10 ghosts, Gotenks, Gohan, and Videl, " Well, this should be interesting. "

/dl

" You know I really do like the color blue. " Vegeta said happily as he tugged at the gi. He'd only gotten as far as

said gi before the group had run out of the room and back towards the docking bay. The little ouji was currenly being

carried on Goku's back while putting the other pieces of his outfit on.

" Veggie's always liked blue! " Goku said happily as he continued to run, the others coming up from behind him.

" This t-shirt gives off a pleasant feeling as well. " the ouji held the "Seme" t-shirt above his head, " Am I a

seme? "

" Yes. " Bura chirped.

" No. " Turles countered.

" I dunno, Veggie never told me what a seme is. " Goku shrugged, then watched as the little ouji put it on, " Veggie

sure is lighter than before though. "

" How can you tell that, you haven't picked him up in two months. " Chi-Chi sweatdropped.

" Oh I can tell. Veggie is at least 10 to 15 pounds lighter. " Goku said, disappointed, " Is it cuz Veggie had to

train without a gravity room for two months so he could not keep up his usual weight? "

" Training? " Vegeta blinked, " You mean my otokohime training? "

" No! Regular training. You know, when Veggie goes into his gravity room and turns it up to 550x and bounces around

punching and kicking thin air? And sometimes Veggie does push-ups and sit-ups in sets of 1000. " Goku explained, smiling at

the thought.

" OH! That kind of training! " the ouji said, enlightened, " Oh I don't do that kind of training. "

Goku screeched to a halt in shock, " WHAT! "

" Burori-sama says its too dangerous for me to train, but he sometimes uses the gravity room down the hall. " he

replied.

" ... "

" Kakarrotto? "

" THAT IS TERRIBLE! " Goku gushed with sorrow, lifting the ouji off his shoulders and glomping him, " OH VEGGIE!

Not letting you TRAIN! That is the e-quivalent to not letting Bulma invent things! Or not letting Turles perform twisted

mischievous deeds! Or not letting ME train! "

" It, is? " Vegeta blinked up at him.

Goku held the smaller saiyajin outward, " Veggie being so super-strong and durable is one of his many Veggie-charms."

" That sounded like a paper-towel commerical. " Chi-Chi sweatdropped.

" One of the many wonderful things about Veggie is that I can fight him and go all out. With everybody else other

than me 'n Veggie's fusion babies, I gotta hold back and be careful. Veggie's the closest to me in strength in all of

existance! "

" All of existance...? " the ouji's eyes widened in awe. Goku placed the ouji's red cape on and tied it tightly.

" And that's all the more reason why Vegeta-san would make a much more suitable "friend" for you to bunk with,

Kakarrotto. " Turles nodded thoughtfully. Chi-Chi twitched behind him, " Like you said, with your ki's so close together

neither of you would have to hold back. "

Vegeta flushed bright red and looked away smiling.

" Uh... " Goku sweatdropped uneasily, flushing as well.

/dl

" HA HA HA HA HA HA HA! " Brolli sent punch after punch at Gohan, who continued to block.

:AAUGH! This isn't getting me anywhere! He's too strong! I can barely block his punches there's no way I'll be able

to land a hit unless..: Gohan paused when something white suddenly appeared around Brolli's wrist.

" Hi there! " Gotenks ghost 7 happily announced. 3 more glomped the densetsu, one at his other wrist and ankles.

They squeezed tightly and exploded. Brolli let out a scream and Gohan took that oppertunity. He sent a punch across Brolli's

face and kneed him in the chest, which, though harming him, didn't move Brolli the several feet Gohan had hoped for. Brolli

spun and shot a ki-blast at Gohan's side, burning off half of his left Saiyaman sleeve.

" Errr... " Gohan grabbed his slightly charred arm.

" YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! " Videl cried out from above and jumped downward at Brolli, knocking the back of his head

forward and into the floor. She bounced off just as Piccolo's foot came down ontop of the densetsu.

" ▫SLAM▫! "

" ... "

Gohan, Videl, Gotenks, and Piccolo stood there waiting, all in defense positions. Piccolo pressed his foot down

farther only to hear a grunt from beneath.

" AAAaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! " Brolli stood up, holding Piccolo's enlarged foot over his head. Piccolo

flipped and kicked his other foot beneath the first one, knocking Brolli through the nearby wall. Piccolo landed back on the

ground.

" Haha! Way to go Piccolo! " Gotenks grinned, then smirked, " Not its my turn! BUU BUU VOLLEYBALL ATTACK! " he formed

the yellow-ish material and shot it in Brolli's direction.

" KIIIA! " Brolli's ki shield went up and the attack flew back at Gotenks, locking him into one of the ball-like

structures, " Nice try, fused demi-spawn of Vejita and Kakarrotto. " he stood up, then rushed the ball only to have it split

into two the moment he would've made contact, " HUH!..SLAM! " he slammed face-first into the wall directly behind the balls.

" Ahh Urrgh ah ah ah GASP! " Goten's head popped out of the ball on the right, gasping for air.

" Wow...good yet bad timing at the same time. " Videl murmured in shock.

" HAAA! " Trunks ki-blasted himself out of his own ball, then took a long deep breath of air, " ▫WHEW▫! " he paused,

then looked around, " Hey, what happened? " he suddenly noticed only his own voice was present. He looked down at himself,

" WAHHH! It's been 30 minutes already? IT CAN'T BE! "

Brolli rubbed his nose, then turned to annoyedly face the two demi-saiyajin, glaring particularly at Goten.

" Ah... " Goten paled, then whipped out his baseball cap from his previous encounter with Brolli and plopped it on

his head to detract from his very obvious type-3 saiyajin physical attributes, " Ha ha ha.. " he laughed nervously.

Gohan lept infront of Goten, then took his sunglasses off, " I won't let you hurt my brother. "

" Niichan! " Goten chirped.

" Don't worry, " Brolli chuckled wickedly, " I won't hurt him, until after I'm done with YOU! " he reached to punch

Gohan who prepared to block only to have Broll fake away and instead use his other arm to grab Gohan's leg and snap it

against the wall.

" WAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH! " Gohan shouted as an intense pain suddenly welled up in his left leg. Brolli slammed the

demi-saiyajin down onto his back, " Ohhhhh...OHHHHHHHh... " he grunted and sat up to see his leg twisted in several incorrect

places. A warm liquid was rolling down the insides of his pantleg, :Blood...I'm bleeding...he broke my leg and its

bleeding: the thought came out fuzzy amonst the pain.

" GOHAN! " Videl cried out, rushing over to him.

/dl

" Oh-kay, again, 1, 2, 3, pull! "

" ▫Screeeeeeeech▫ "

" 1, 2, 3, pull! "

" ▫Screeeeeeeech▫ "

Veggy had pulled out a rope with a large weight that he had in his chest cavity and was slowly pulling V.2; who was

holding onto the weight; and the Veggie-ghosts; who were each holding on gently to V.2's ankles; across the floor. The

ghosts still looked unusually nervous, even for their current situation.

" A..are we almost there yet? " Veggie-ghost 2 asked.

" Almost. About 5 more feet to go. " the android replied, " 1, 2, 3, PULL! "

" ▫SCREEEEECH▫ "

The gravity around them suddenly lurched backward and V.2 stumbled to his feet. The Veggie-ghosts sighed in relief

and slid off his ankles and onto the floor. They hovered up into the air.

" THANK you Veggy! " 1 lightly clasped his hands together.

" We really thought we were goners for sure! " 2 added, still with some remaining cold sweat dripping down his face.

" Maybe you two should head back to the ship then. " V.2 suggested, " If Brolli can control the gravity in each room

of this entire ship than who's to say that when we catch up to him he won't shout out 900x earth's gravity or even 1000x? "

" 1000x... " 2 trailed off, frightened.

" We would never make it at 1000x. " 1 shook his head with worry.

" Let's all head back to the docking bay then. I don't think it would be very safe to let them go back on their own.

I can sense Brolli battling Gohan's group not far from here. " Veggy hit the button on his scouter, " Kakarrotto's group is

almost to the docking bay and Vejitto and Gogeta's are a floor above us. "

V.2 sighed, " Hai, the fusions are stronger than any of us, if Gohan's group needs any backup they'll do. But that

still doesn't mean I'm not coming back out once we get to the ship. I'm going to make Brolli PAY for insulting Kakarrotto

and causing him psychological stress and emotional pain! "

" Long words. " 2 sweatdropped.

" Indeed. " 1, also sweatdropping, added.

/dl

" Anyone else find it strange that its so unusually QUIET up here? " Raditsu said, partly creeped out as he, the

fusions, and the demi-saiyajin walked down the large empty hall.

" Quiet's no fun. " Gogeta pouted.

" Some traveling music? " Vejitto whipped out a several-instruments-in-one playable object.

Raditsu sweatdropped at the bulky instrument, " Ah, no thanks. "

The portara fusion shrugged and tossed it over his shoulder.

" I'm sure we're bound to find something if we just keep going far enough. " Mirai nodded confidently, then took

another step forward only to fall through the whole Brolli and Gohan had created earlier, " WAAAAAH! "

Raditsu gawked at the large hole, " That's...something alright. "

" WHEE! " Vejitto hopped down the hole after him.

" CANNONBALL! " Gogeta happily followed after the portara fusion.

The large saiyajin simply shrugged, then jumped down after them.

/dl

" ▫Knock▫knock▫Knock▫ Hey Bejito! " Nappa called out, knocking on the front door to the building which had become

the temporary royal castle, " Are you there? Cally and I found a fish and we wanted to know if you'd like any! "

Cally, the ouho's sister, held the fish up over her head, " We think its an evil fish, but that's oh-kay! "

" ... "

" That's weird. " Nappa cocked an eyebrow. He opened the door and the two fo them stepped inside, " Bejito? Ruby? "

" Bardock? Celipa? "

Nappa scratched his head while Cally dropped the huge fish onto the floor.

" ▫WHEW▫. " she wiped the sweat off her brow, then glanced over at Nappa, " OH! " she pointed past him.

" What? " Nappa blinked.

" A note! " Cally grabbed the taped piece of paper off the door, " "Went to the North Kai planet to save Vegeta's

life and semedom, be back soon". " she read outloud, then gasped, " THE NORTH KAI PLANET! That's on the other side of

Otherworld! "

" You mean Bejito found a way to get out of hfil! " Nappa exclaimed, " And didn't TELL us? "

" Ohhhhh... " Cally sulked, then perked up, " Oh well, I wish them luck! "

" And that just means for fish for us. " Nappa tapped the fish on the side with his boot, " Come on, let's go see if

we can get Bejito's oven to work. "

" K! "

/dl

" Mmmm! Now this is FOOD! " Celipa grinned as she, Bardock, Bejito, and Ruby sat at the large table they had

stationed on Kaio-sama's lawn.

" Hmm...hmmm... "

Ruby looked over at Bejito to see him inspecting the food on his plate with a microscope, " ...Bejito what are you

doing? " she said flatly.

" Looking for type-3 saiyajin germs. They could be on any one of these food items just waiting to warp our minds to

their mushy ways. " he narrowed his eyes in suspicion, " AH-HAH! "

The others looked over at him.

Bejito adjusted the microscope, " Oh wait, that's half a cherry. " he mumbled.

" If they freak you out so much I'm surprised I don't bother you. " Bardock lifted an eyebrow.

" You're not directly from one of the villages and thus are free from learning their mush-filled ways. Besides,

your germs aren't evil. "

" Didn't I already tell you that those three weren't allowed to pass their germs onto any of the food they deliver? "

Kaio-sama sighed tiredly.

" Ah, but that's where you're making a grave mistake in judgement. " the ou tapped his pointer finger against the

side of his head, " Of those three the seme type-3 saiyajin, according to Ruby, is Turles's father. As you all know, Turles

is evil and not only doesn't follow the rules but is trying to get Kakarrotto to break them as well. By deciding to mess with

my head, Turles' father has displayed that he too holds some type of evil properties within him. Who's not to say that by

seeing us here and by most-likely knowing of Kakarrotto and Vegeta's predicament through the use of his mysterious type-3

saiyajin peasant powers that he wouldn't decide to break your own rule on germ-spreading and leave a germ or two on a few

food items which I prefer to snack on so that they could invade my system rendering me helpless in my attempt to aid Vegeta

in the protection of his natural, royal semehood! "

" ... " the others stared blankly at him.

" Wow, Vegeta's not YOUR son, is he. " Kaio-sama sarcastically remarked, sweatdropping.

" Hey Bejito, are you going to drink that? " Bardock pointed to a can of cherry soda.

" No go ahead. I've already had three sodas; any more caffeine and I won't be able to properly concentrate on this."

Bejito replied.

" You should at least finish up soon or else all your food's going to get cold or we'll all eat it first. " Ruby

pointed out.

Bardock snapped open the soda, only to be surprised when he didn't hear it fizz, " That's weird, usually it doesn't

go flat unless the can's been opened already. "

" ? " Bejito shot to attention. Bardock, not paying attention to him, lifted the can to take a sip, " BARDOCK!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! " Bejito shouted as if in slow motion as he tackled the other saiyajin to the ground. The soda-can

flew out of Bardock's hands and hit the ground, spilling all over the grass.

" HEY! WHAT WAS THAT FOR! " Bardock snapped, sitting up. Bejito pointed past Bardock's shoulder. He turned to see

the soda had spilled into dozens of droplits which were now squiggling off in random directions. It took him a second to

realize what had happened, " ...HE WAS RIGHT? "

" You were RIGHT! " Ruby gawked.

Bejito grinned, " I luv that phrase. " he whipped out a magnifying glass and picked up one of the reddish-orange

drops of "soda", " BEHOLD! A germ! "

" Bwahahahaha! " the germ laughed evilly, then paused, " I mean, heeheehee? "

" Does this mean we get to fire him now? " the ou wagged his tail.

" I'd think considering the consequences you'd rather leave him off with a warning. " Kaio-sama chuckled.

" A WARNING? But Bardock almost DRANK that germ-filled soda can! " Celipa gawked.

" If you report Turles's father where do you think they're going to send him? " the kai said simply.

" ... " Bejito paled, " Oh God...he'd be living down in hfil with US! "

The others turned a simultaneous green.

" No thank you. "

" I'd rather NOT deal with that sort of thing EVERY DAY.. "

" I agree with both of you. "

/dl

" You know its times like these when I really wish I still had my healing powers. " Kami sighed as Piccolo stood

there. He was just now starting to feel the pressure of being in super-size from too long and shrunk down to only twice his

size instead of 10x. He stood before Gohan and Videl while narrowing his eyes at Brolli, " I won't let you come any closer.

My son has done nothing to you! " Piccolo glowered.

" Ah, if only he truely was your offspring and not a demi-Kakarrotto I would most likely spare him. However, " Brolli

cracked his knuckles, " No one of Kakarrotto's bloodline is leaving this ship alive, and the rest of you should consider

yourselves extremely lucky if you happen to escape the aftermath. " he smirked, then took another step forward only to be

hit with a large object, causing him to wobble backwards, " WAHHHH- "

" ▫THUMP▫! " a second object came down, this time knocking Brolli to the ground. The object hopped off. Brolli

grumbled, then gasped and quickly dodged the third object. The forth smacked him in the back however and fell to the side.

" Urrrg.. " Brolli stood up, rubbing his head.

" GASP! Jitto look! It's the Big Meanie! " Gogeta exclaimed.

" YOU'LL PAY FOR KIDNAPPING MY MOMMY! " Vejitto snapped and burst into ssj2, soon followed by Gogeta. Mirai was still

half-consious and Raditsu was slowly standing up and dusting himself off.

:The two Kakarrotto/Vejita offspring! I don't have time to deal with THEM right now! I have to get to Vejita:

" Errr...HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIH! " Brolli formed a large ki shield, then ran out of the hall, " I'm sick and tired of battling

people who aren't Kakarrotto! I can easily kill them off once I get rid of him! "

/dl

" YAAAAAAAH! " Goku yanked his hand off the handle to the door that lead to docking bay. He wildly swung it in the

air, " Oww... "

" Burori-sama must've turned on the security system. " Vegeta thought outloud.

" There's a security system! Why would he need that he's the "Legendary Super Saiyajin"! " Chi-Chi gawked.

The ouji shrugged, " Burori-sama just likes to make sure we're safe, that's all. "

" Veggie? "

Vegeta looked over Goku's shoulder at him.

" Veggie I'm gonna try to blast a hole through the door, oh-kay? " Goku said determindly. He paused, " If..if Veggie

wants, he can help. It can be just like when me 'n Veggie blasted Buu together and beat the Big Meanie the first time

together! "

" But I'm not allowed to shoot ki blasts in the halls. Burori-sama says they could bounce off the wall and hurt me. "

the ouji gulped.

" Veggie that's not true. " Goku frowned, " You shouldn't let the Big Meanie boss you around like that. Veggie should

use his own sense of what is good and what is bad to follow his own rules, not somebody else's! "

The smaller saiyajin smiled knowingly at him.

Goku froze. He let out a small gasp and covered his mouth as Vegeta hopped off his back and onto the ground. The

larger saiyajin shuddered. He was afraid to even look in Chi-Chi's direction now.

" Hey! Let's just move on, shall we? " Chi-Chi said in a falsely cheerful way as she patted Goku on the shoulder.

Goku glanced over at her for a second, nervous.

" I'm, not going to do anything to you, let's just forget those last couple sentences of yours and get back to the

ship, alright? " Chi-Chi laughed uneasily.

He nodded, then turned back to the door, " A..alright. " Goku said, then burst into ssj2. He assumed his kamehameha

attack position, " Ready Veggie? "

The ouji went ssj2 and placed his hands in garriku ho position.

" Now Veggie get infront of me. " Goku instructed. Vegeta did so, then felt a blast of something as Goku pressed his

right cheek against the ouji's left, then placed his arms on either side of Vegeta's as to form a four-way ki-blast.

" KA...MEH...HA...MEH... "

" GARRIKU... "

" HAAAAAAAAAAA! "

" HOOOOOOOOOOO! " a huge blast of blue and pink ki exploded from their hands and launched itself at the door. The

smoke cleared to reveal they had successfully blown out nearly the entire object.

" THEY DID IT! " Bulma cheered.

" HOORAY! GO TOUSSAN AND KAKARROUJO! " Bura pumped her fist in the air.

" Yes, congradulations. "

The group froze except for Turles who narrowed his eyes and Goku who was now letting out a low growl.

Brolli dusted his arms off as he walked up to the group, " Finally. It seems I kept running into every group BUT

yours, Kakarrotto. "

Goku burst into ssj3 and continued to growl.

The densetsu glowered at Goku, " Vejita-chan, go to your room. "

" What? " Vegeta stared at him, disturbed.

" Go to your room, Vejita. " Brolli continued to focus on Goku.

" Burori-sama why are you in ssj form? What are you going to do? " the ouji demanded, worried.

" I'm just going to escort our guests out, that's all. " Brolli smirked.

" Why do I have to leave? "

" Because I don't want to expose you to anymore violence. You were hurting enough before as it was. " the densetsu

frowned, saddened, " Please leave, Vejita? "

" No. "

Brolli's eyes widened in shock, " What did you say? "

" I said...no. " the ouji stammered out, " How can I listen to you after you lied to me! "

" L..lied to you? Vejita-chan I would never..! "

" You told me we were the only two saiyajin left. But look at THEM! " the ouji pointed at Goku and Turles, upset,

" Not only are they saiyajin but according to them there's three more all in different parts of the ship who were helping

them search for me as well. "

" Vejita-chan, the reason I never mentioned them before is because they're traitors to the throne. They shouldn't

even be included in our illustrious kingdom. " Brolli lied on seemlessly, then glared and pointed to Goku, " Especially

THAT ONE! "

" Kakarrotto? " Vegeta gasped, then looked over at him sadly.

" You've even called him a traitor yourself, Vejita. " this time Brolli was telling the truth.

" That is no fair! Veggie only called me that during my very first battle against him and back then Veggie did not

know the extent of my amnesia! " Goku exclaimed.

" YOU have amnesia! " Brolli cocked an eyebrow.

" OH WOW! "

Goku blinked and looked down to see the little ouji staring up at him with big sparkily eyes, " Veggie? "

" This means we have even MORE in common! " Vegeta wagged his tail, " And I don't think of you as a traitor,

Kakarrotto. There's something good about you, something really good! I can feel it! "

" PLATONICALLY! " Bulma, Chi-Chi, and Brolli all cried out at once.

Goku and Vegeta sweatdropped.

" Kakarrotto I want to come with you. We can recover our memories together! " Vegeta exclaimed with excitement.

" Hn.. " the hand Brolli wore the controller on twitched, :I can't zap Vejita here. That'll REALLY make me look like

the bad guy: " V..Vejita I told you all you need to know, there's no reason to leave with this menace-to-the-eardrums. "

he said calmly.

" It's two different things to be told that something happened to you and to actually recall having lived it,

Burori-sama. " the ouji pouted, then gave Goku a hug, " Besides, I LIKE Kakarrotto. "

:Veggieshuggingme...: a large smile crossed Goku's face, " EEEEE! " he glomped the little ouji back.

" Mmmmmmm... " Vegeta sighed.

Bulma zipped behind him and started to nervously spray Vegeta with peasant-repel.

" ▫FWOOOOOOM▫ " a heavy shadow overcast the two saiyajin. Goku froze.

Vegeta looked up past Goku, " Don't worry Kakarrotto, Burori-sama's never hurt me before, what reason would he have

to harm us now? "

Brolli's shoulders slumped forward, :Aw dammit...: " Vejita-chan how about you go get changed into your ceremonial

outfit, hm? "

" But..it's not evening yet, is it? "

" Well, no, but wouldn't you like to show off how nice you look in it? Your friends can wait here and you can come

back and show them as soon as you get it on. " the densetsu offered, then muttered, " Oh and I guess Kakarrotto will like it

to. " he shrugged casually.

" I want to impress Kakarrotto! " the ouji grinned, letting go of Goku.

" YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO WANT TO IMPRESS ME! " Brolli nearly fell over.

Vegeta started to jog in place, " I'll be right back Kakarrotto-sama! " he grinned, then dashed off.

" ACK! NO TOUSSAN WAIT! YOU FINALLY GOT YOUR RIGHTFUL SEME CLOTHING BACK ON! " Bura cried out, running down the

hall after him.

Brolli smiled at the ouji as he watched Vegeta disappear around the corner, " Vejita's so sweet and uke-ish on the

inside without all those painful memories of Freeza and Kakarrotto. " he turned back to the ssj2, " And I'm going to make

sure he stays that way. Now... "

" WHAT DID YOU DO TO VEGGIE'S BRAIN! " Goku demanded.

" AND WHERE ARE OUR FRIENDS AND FAMILIES! " Chi-Chi added in an equally angered tone.

" Your friends and families are fine; all very much alive. Of course they're all trapped in various parts of the

ship, but take heart in the fact that I'll be taking out the four of you first for your crimes against my otokohime! "

" EXCUSE ME! CRIMES! You're the kidnapper! If anyone around here has committed a crime its you! " Bulma made

fists with her oversized gloves.

" You Bulma Briefs are accused of neglect. You leave Vejita alone for days, weeks at a time on your "meetings" and

"scientific conventions". " Brolli pointed at her, " Because of you he feels lonely, un-necessary. "

" I have to work! Vegeta understands that I have a career and he doesn't. He'd rather train in the gravity room,

cook, play videogames, and spar with Son-kun all day! " she defended herself.

" And YOU, Turles...ah, whatever your last name is, you're accused of attempting to push Vejita into a romantic

relationship with THAT! " Brolli motioned disgustedly to Goku, who sweatdropped, " Because of you, Vejita has become more

paranoid in constantly checking every little thing he does to make sure he's not falling into your Kakarrotto-baited trap! "

" Vegeta-san's not paranoid he's merely in denial. " Turles avoided eye-contact and cooly whistled to himself.

" Bura Briefs is accused of the same thing, only she is burdened with the additional crime of keeping Vejita's mind

locked into a state of constant semeness! "

" He IS a seme! How else do you explain him being able to impregnate me TWICE! " Bulma huffed.

" And YOU, Son Chi-Chi Gyu-Mao, " Brolli snarled at her, " Are accused of MURDERING my Vejita-chan. "

:How did he find out about THAT: Chi-Chi sweatdropped, recalling the accidental incident.

" However, because you had also succeeded in murdering KAKARROTTO, I shall make your death a swift one; however

because of Vejita's involvement the agony you will experiance within that one short moment will feel as a lifetime of pain. "

" Uh-huh. " she skeptically replied.

" And lastly, YOU, KAKARROTTO, " Brolli spat the name, " For causing Vejita nearly irreparable damage to his

mental, emotional, and physical psyches, for STEALING the ONE PART of Vejita that I could never hold without the aid of

un-natural means; for STEALING VEJITA'S HEART, you shall be the first one to die. " he let out a roar of anger and burst into

densetsu form, " DIE, KAKARROTTO! " Brolli flew at him.

Goku glanced at the others, :I can't fight him with my friends having the possibility of be-coming collateral: his

mind was shifting over to battle mode. Goku blasted off down the hall, followed soon after by Brolli.

Chi-Chi's eyes widened in horror, " GOKU-SAN! "

/dl

" Wow...that's, that's uh... " Bura stood there beside Vegeta as they both stared up at the outfit draped onto the

mannequin, " Toussan for the sake of your semehood please do NOT put that outfit on. " she pleaded with him.

" Why not? " Vegeta blinked.

" BECAUSE! LOOK AT IT! That's easily got to be THE most uke-ish uniform I've EVER seen ANYWHERE before in my LIFE! It

makes Kakarroujo's oujo uniform look semeish! " she exclaimed " You can't go through with this! You won't be able to look

Kakarroujo in the face again if you let him see you in that! It's so thin and frilly and lacy and poofy and fluffy and

PINK! All adjectives which are NOT associated with the Great and Powerful Saiyajin no OUJI! "

Vegeta stared at her, startled af if he had almost remembered something.

" Just, just wear what you already have on, Toussan. Kakarroujo picked out the gi; he luvs to see you wearing gi's;

though I'm not sure why aside from the fact that he wears them himself; but still! Isn't that better than some permanently

uke-branding dress! "

Vegeta stared at her blankly for a moment, then shrugged, " If you say so. "

" ▫WHEW▫! " Bura let out a huge sigh of relief, " Thank goodness... "

" Now, let's go find Kakarrotto, hai? " Vegeta said happily, heading out of the room.

" GREAT seme idea, Toussan! We'll find Kakarroujo, free your mind from the Big Meanie's mind control, and then you

can save your oujo in some sort of super-heroic rescue! " the demi-saiyajin cheerfully gushed.

Vegeta sweatdropped, " Hai... "

/dl

" This is where it ends, Kakarrotto. "

Brolli and Goku stood facing each other, a good 15 feet apart.

" I'll give you points for the effort you made to find my ship, I'm still not sure how you and your friends managed

to figure that out... " the densetsu continued, " But you're all stubborn fools for even trying. "

" You are the fool, for trying to force Veggie to like you. You can't force people to like you at all, it doesn't

work that way. " the ssj2 replied, " You have to be nice. "

" I WAS nice to Vejita and that didn't work! The reason I couldn't get through to him was because of YOU! You're all

Vejita ever thought about before I altered his memories. KAKARROTTO this, KAKARROTTO that. His cellphone was ORANGE for

crying out loud! And he had a picture of you and himself on the desktop! "

" ... "

" I watched you both together for a long time now. Would you like to know how? How I survived you and Vejita's final

attack? How I got my hands on this ship? How I found Vejita and was able to kidnap him without your disgustingly mushy

peasant-heart ever skipping a beat? "

" I just want to know how to get Veggie's brain back to normal, thanks. "

" Well too bad! I'm going to tell you anyway since it's a rather amusing tale. You see when you two were blasting me

I used the final ki I had left to manufacture a ki shield, the type I'd used to escape Bejito-sei's destruction; however,

since this time I was unconsious after forming the shield I was randomly blown off into space. I landed on a tourist planet

in the West Galaxy. From the report I was given by the nurse upon awakening, I had crashed into one of the roller-coasters,

sprained my right arm, bruised the rest of my limbs and given myself a concussion. Luckily for me, none of MY memory was

damaged by the blow. I stayed in the hospital for a few weeks until I was healthy again and promptly left early one morning.

I'd decided I would steal the biggest and fastest spaceship available, but then I happened to overhear a conversation between

these two men who appeared to be the security guards of one of the ships. They were talking about Vejita and how much havoc

he had wreaked over their planet back when their rulers had kidnapped him for a time. What I found especially interesting was

how they said their ship could track one of their remaining androids straight to Earth. I..."politely" introduced myself and

demanded to "borrow" their ship. When they declined I simply disposed of them and took the ship outright. I spent the next

several months purchasing parts for and modifying the ship for when I would finally come after Vejita. I have to admit I was,

at first, a little uneasy about using the ship's teleportation device but I'm very happy it worked. So amusing that Vejita

was kidnapped twice by the exact same method of entering his home. "

" Veggie... " Goku trailed off.

" HAHAHA! YOU SHOULD'VE SEEN HIM BARRELING DOWN THOSE STAIRS TO GET TO THE KITCHEN! " Brolli grinned maniacally,

" He heard the microwave and THOUGHT IT WAS YOU! "

" ▫POW▫! " Goku's fist made contact with Brolli's jaw. Brolli was thrown aback and quickly pulled his knee up,

hitting Goku in the stomach. He grabbed Goku with his right arm and threw the saiyajin through a door into a nearby room.

" OOF! " Goku let out a small yelp as he hit the ground. He got up and looked around to see the room he was in looked

like some type of infirmary.

" Now let's see, what is it Kakarrotto's afraid of? " Brolli's voice teased. Goku narrowed his eyes, unable to see

where Brolli was. He tried pressing some buttons on his scouter to detect only to have something swat it right off his head

and land a bellowing crunch to the little orange device, " Medicine bottles? No. Dental floss? No again. "

" ▫SWWWOOOSH▫! " something shot up out of the floor and yanked Goku down onto it.

" ARRRG! " Goku struggled to sit up.

" Oh I know, it's NEEDLES! " Brolli suddenly appeared infront of Goku holding what was easily the biggest needle the

saiyajin had ever seen.

" Ahh...a...ah... " Goku's eyes shot wide open.

" I wonder what sort of liquid is INSIDE this needle. " Brolli tapped the side of it. He held the needle as if it

were a bazooka. A strange glowy purple liquid spewed about inside the container, " And furthermore, I wonder what it would do

if injected into a certain type-3 saiyajin peasant whom I have A GREAT AMOUNT OF CONTEMPT FOR! " he lundged the needle at

Goku's chest.

" GASP! BURORI-SAMA? "

Brolli stopped the needle a second above Goku's body and turned with shocked pupilless eyes to see Vegeta standing

in the doorway along with Bura, shocked.

" Ah...I uh...ah... " Brolli started to sweat. He quickly threw the needle off into the background, " I was giving

Kakarrotto a checkup. "

" You were trying to HARM him! "

" YEAH! " Bura made fists, then whispered up to Vegeta, " Now's your chance Toussan. Go forth and free Kakarroujo

from those straps! Show him what a HERO you are! "

" Uhh.. " Vegeta blinked nervous.

" Hn. " a vein bulged on Bura's forehead. She promptly pushed him inside.

" WAHHH-! ▫THUMP▫! " Vegeta fell over. He stumbled to his feet, " HEY! What was that for? "

" GRRRRRRRRR... " Brolli growled at Bura, looming over her. The demi-saiyajin folded her arms and smirked in a

Veggie-ish way.

" You don't scare me. "

Vegeta walked over to Goku, " Don't worry Kakarrotto! I'll save you! " he nodded, then held burst into ssj2 and held

his hands outward. Goku tilted his head in curiousity, " CLAP OFF! ▫clap▫clap▫ "

" ▫SWISH▫SWISH▫SWISH▫ " the bands were sucked off of Goku and back into the floor. Goku fell over in mild pain.

" Oof! "

" ... " Bura sweatdropped, :I was expecting something more along the lines of a Big Bang or a Final Flash...:

" The straps are controlled by clapping? " Goku blinked, confused.

" Many things in this ship are controlled by either passwords or pass-sounds. " Vegeta explained.

" TOUSSAN! " Bura called out to him, " PICK KAKARROUJO UP INTO YOUR ARMS AND HEROICLY DASH OUT THE ROOM! "

Vegeta looked over at Goku, then grabbed the larger saiyajin and hoisted him into his arms, " LIKE THIS! " he called

back while Goku sat there wagging his tail.

" YEAH! AND MAKE SURE YOUR ROYAL SAIYAJIN NO OUJI CAPE FLUTTERS SEMETASTICALLY IN THE WIND! "

Vegeta turned to Goku, " I can't reach my cape while I'm holding you, do you think you could pull the corner out of

that spot? "

Goku yanked it free, causing Vegeta's cape to waft through the air.

" Thanks. "

Goku smiled, " Thank you, Veggie. "

Bura whipped out a tape-player and hit play, causing heroic music to blast out as Vegeta ran past her and Brolli.

" ▫BA▫BA▫NA▫, ▫BA▫BA▫NA▫NA▫NA▫! "

" Banana! " Goku chirped as they disappeared around the corner.

" ... " Brolli sweatdropped, " What just happened here? "

" GO TOUSSAN GO TOUSSAN! GO GO GO! " Bura cheered, ignoring Brolli and excitedly racing after him while waving a pair

of dark royal blue pom-poms in the air.

" ...hey, waitaminute! " Brolli said suddenly, " CURSE YOU FOR DIVERTING MY ATTENTION, SPAWN OF VEJITA! " he powered

up and flew after them, " DIE KAKARROTTOOOOOOOOO! "

/dl

" Ohhh, Gohan. " Videl had ripped half of Gohan's pantleg off to expose his wound and Piccolo had created a temporary

cast for it. She looked around the group, " Who has the senzu beans? "

" That would be Bulma. " Piccolo replied.

" Well then we have to get out of here and find her! " she nodded with worried determination while Gohan groaned.

" We should've split the beans between all of us. " Mirai frowned.

" It's not like the original plan was to split up. Kaasan probably just forgot. " Trunks sighed sadly.

" Hm.. " Raditsu reached around in the pockets of his gi pants, then grinned and pulled something out, " I have half

a bean! Will that work? "

" That's great! " Videl took it from him, " Thanks Raditsu. "

" You're welcome. "

" Here Gohan, eat this. " she gave him the half a senzu.

" Hmmm.. "

" Hmmm indeed. "

Raditsu looked over to see the fusions inspecting the shield. Vejitto burst into ssj2, reached out, and grabbed part

of the shield, ignoring the electrical shocks to his hands. Gogeta did the same with the other end of the shield.

" ERRRRRR...READY? "

" AND...PULL! "

" ▫RIP!▫ " the two fusions ripped a large hole right through the shield.

" ... " Mirai's jaw hung open, " You gotta be kidding me? "

" We are not kidding! PLEASE HURRY! " Vejitto shouted. Piccolo lifted Gohan up and left along with Videl. The rest of

the two groups soon followed. Vejitto and Gogeta hopped out through the hole and let go, causing it to close back up.

Gogeta let out small rapid breaths onto his gloveless hands, then shook them in the air in mild pain, " Oww. "

" Wow...I didn't know ki shields could be ripped open like that! " Trunks gawked.

" They can't! " Vejitto chirped. The demi-saiyajin sweatdropped.

" All the more impressive! " Gogeta happily added.

" And now to find the Big Meanie and aid Toussan and Mommy in defeating him! " Vejitto grinned. Gogeta nodded in

agreement and with that they blasted off.

" I think I should go help them, you know, as backup. " Raditsu suggested.

" You go ahead. I'm staying with Gohan's group and making sure he gets back to the docking bay safely. " Mirai took

out his sword.

" Alright. " Raditsu said, then went ssj, " Be careful guys. "

" We'll try. " Gohan sweatdropped.

/dl

" WOW... " Veggy said in awe as he, V.2, and the Veggie-ghosts stood in the control room, " I don't think I've ever

seen this many videoscreens before. "

" Well then, " V.2 cracked his knuckles, walking up to the control panel and sitting down in the chair, " let's find

out what's on. " he smirked in a Veggie-ish way, then hit a button labeled "Power". Instantly the entire wall of screens lit

up to expose a picture of the goings on in every room of the ship, even the control room itself.

Veggie-ghost 1 waved at the camera while Veggie-ghost 2 waved at the picture of Veggie-ghost 1 on the tv-screen.

V.2 sweatdropped, " Well that camera's redundent. "

" HEY! " Veggy said suddenly. V.2 looked over at him.

" What? "

" If this is really the control room, that means its where the navigational system is. We could figure out how to

operate it and fly THIS ship back home! Or at least close enough to home so that if we have to escape it'll be a lot easier

on us. " the android grinned.

" ... " V.2 paused, then nodded, " Good idea. "

" :) "

" ... "

" Now, which button starts up the navigational system? "

/dl

" WAHHHHHHHHHH, I DON'T THINK I CAN OUTRUN BURORI-SAMA, KAKARROTTO! " Vegeta wailed as he flew down the hallway

carrying Goku who was now carrying Bura who he'd picked up once Brolli started to gain speed on them, " HE CAN RUN FASTER

THAN THIS! HE'S TOYING WITH US! "

" LOOK! A DOOR! Let's duck inside there! " Bura pointed off into the distance straight ahead.

" Oh! Bura I'm not allowed in there yet that room's for my otokohime consumation this evening! " Vegeta gasped.

" DOES IT MATTER? HE COULD KILL US! "

" I, ah, hai. " the ouji said, then quickly dashed inside the room and quickly yet quietly shut the door behind them.

He set Goku and Bura down and let out a mild sigh of relief, " I can't believe this. Burori-sama attacking people... "

" It's not as uncommon as you think, Vegeta-san. "

" HUH? " Vegeta turned around to see Turles sitting there on the edge of the humongous bed with a flamethrower under

his arm. Bulma was sitting on a nearby chair running calculations on her weaponry while Chi-Chi practiced her sword manuvers.

" Chi-chan, Bulma, Turles! You're all oh-kay! " Goku gushed excitedly.

" I was going to torch the room once I found out what its supposed to be used for, but then I realized what a perfect

hiding spot it would be until we could find some way to meet up with you guys again. " Turles explained.

" Wow...I've never seen it with the lights on before. " Vegeta murmured aloud, " It's beautiful. "

" Yeah it is, isn't it? " Turles put the flamethrower away, " I was thinking if we do find a way to defeat the

Big Meanie but still keep the ship semi intact that on the way back you and Kakarrotto could perhaps consumate a few things

of your own? " he smirked wickedly.

Goku flushed pink, " Turles I cannot do that its a-gainst Rule number 2! "

" "Rule number 2"? " Vegeta repeated, confused.

" That, and we really need to find a way to get that headband off. " Turles nodded glumly, " As amusingly uke-ish as

Vegeta-san's been acting, it'd be better if he had all his memories back as well. "

" I miss Veggie's memories too. " Goku frowned, saddened, " E-specially the ones with me. "

" I could try to lift the headband off again? " Vegeta suggested.

" No, its better we just try to figure out how it works first. Any sudden screams and you-know-who will know exactly

where we are. " Turles pointed out, " Bulma's currently talking to the others. She's got Gohan's group on the line right

now. "

Goku picked Vegeta up and hugged the little ouji, then carried him over to the bed and flopped down, " ▫WHEW▫! "

" Hm. " Vegeta looked down at himself, then up at the headband, " If only I had something that was resistant to

electrical shocks. "

" He's WHAT! " Bulma gawked in shock.

" Sprained his leg in several places, possibly broken it. " Piccolo replied grimly as he carried Gohan down the

hall, " Where are you? "

" We're on the first floor in a room with an enormous door around it. "

" Who's hurt? " Chi-Chi asked, worried.

" Ah.. " Bulma sweatdropped nervously.

" It's GOHAN isn't it? " she started to twitch in anger, " That Ouji-thief hurt GOHAN! "

" ▫Knock▫knock▫ Bulma? "

" That's Piccolo. " she got up and went to open the door to reveal Piccolo standing there holding a semi-consious

Gohan. Gohan's left leg was twisted in several places. Videl stood beside them along with Goten, Trunks, and Mirai.

" Ohhhhh... " Gohan moaned in pain.

" ... " Chi-Chi stood there with her jaw hanging open. An aura of pure rage built up around her and Goku

instinctively pulled the covers up over his head in fear, " ERRRRRRRRRRRRRrrrr...HOW DARE HE HARM MY GOHAN-CHAN! NOW IT'S

PERSONAL! " she whipped out her sword and ran out of the room with fury.

" AHH! CHICHANNO! " Goku yelped, racing after her and followed by Vegeta.

" ALRIGHT YOU MONSTER WHERE ARE YOU! I'M GOING TO MAKE YOU PAY FOR HURTING MY SON! YOU MESS WITH MY CHILDREN YOU MESS

WITH ME YOU OUJI-OBSESSIVE NUTCASE! " Chi-Chi screamed down the hall.

" CHI-CHAN NO YOU CANNOT FIGHT HIM A-LONE! " Goku cried out, catching up to her.

" Even WITH Kakarrotto I doubt you even have a chance. " a shadow loomed from beside them, " But if Mrs. "Son" wants

to commit suicide right here and now I'm not stopping her. " Brolli, still in densetsu form, stepped out from one of the

hallways. He cracked his knuckles, " You'll all be dead before the day is over anyway; though I might let those two

Vejita/Kakarrotto spawn survive an extra day, just to ease the pain on Vejita's heart. "

" I can't believe you're really going to kill them. " Vegeta whispered in shock, " I've never seen you hurt anyone,

anything ever before and now you're going to kill all these people because they wanted to take me off your ship. "

" Wh..where ARE Ji-chan and Goggie? " Goku asked, worried of the answer.

" Oh I happened upon them and your brother while searching for you, Vejita, and the young female spawn of Vejita. I

knocked them out and brought them down to the dungeon. They're safe for now. "

/dl

" I feel naked and uncomfortable, Jitto. " Gogeta blinked as he sat there strapped to the wall.

" I'm hungry. " Vejitto shifted around, also in the same state as his fellow fusion.

" This is easily one of the top-10 most disturbing days of my life. " Raditsu said flatly, only strapped to a board

while facing the ceiling and several feet away from the fusions.

/dl

" You however, I plan to kill this very moment. " Brolli smirked.

" With Veggie right here to see you do it? " Goku narrowed his eyes.

" Vejita can forget. Infact he's been doing it quite often lately. "

Chi-Chi braced herself and slowly crept into position out of Brolli's current field of vision.

" You DID make Veggie forget on purpose! " Goku accused him.

" Burori-sama... " Vegeta trailed off in shock.

" I'm sorry Vejita-chan. " Brolli smiled, " But you were in so much pain. Even with Kakarrotto's mere addition to the

room I can feel it beginning to rise within you again. I'll take care of that though, once I've done away with Kakarrotto

and his miniture army of family and friends. "

" ... " Vegeta stood there, speechless, " ...no. "

Brolli glanced at him out of the corner of his eyes.

" I won't let you...I WON'T STAND BY AND LET YOU KILL KAKARROTTO! "

Goku turned to Vegeta as well.

The ouji burst into ssj2, " Burori-sama..you were so kind to me yet if you can just turn around and kill those who

also care about me because YOU don't want to SHARE...YOU'RE A MONSTER! "

" ▫POW▫ "

" AARGH! " Brolli whipped his head around to see Chi-Chi's sword halfway into his chest. Blood trickled down Brolli's

mid-section. She grinned maniacally up at him.

" The Ouji's right, you should learn to share. "

Brolli held his hand up at her, " Hypocrite. "

" CHI-CHAAAAN! "

" ▫PIIIIING▫ " Brolli shot a ki-blast through her chest. Goku and Vegeta watched in horror as Chi-Chi's grip on her

sword vanished completely. She flew backwards a good 10 feet before landing on her back.

" CHI-CHAN! " Goku wailed, rushing over to her. Unlike Brolli's wound Chi-Chi's was gushing. The densetsu pulled her

sword out of his chest with minimal effort.

" Ohhhhhhhhhhh...Goku-sa. " Chi-Chi groaned, struggling to sit up.

" No Chi-chan don't move! " he held onto her tightly, feeling a sickening sense of deja vu.

Chi-Chi coughed, then paled when she saw she'd just spat up blood. There were now speckles of it covering the top of

her blouse, " Damn him... " she hissed in Brolli's direction.

" Don't be so hard on yourself. Even if you had been a super saiyajin there's still no way you could've beaten me

with your man-made weaponry. " Brolli smirked and casually snapped the sword in two. Chi-Chi's eyes widened at the sight.

" Heh, maybe so, but Goku-san can beat you. " she smirked.

Vegeta blinked. There was something so familiar about this situation, some nagging tug of an out of body experiance

he hadn't remembered experiancing the first time around.

" How very dillusional of you. Kakarrotto barely managed to K.O. me the last time, and back then he had the aid of

quite a few of you. " Brolli recalled, then lifted his hand back up into the air, " And now Son Chi-Chi Gyu-Mao, for putting

Vejita through countless amounts of emotional stress and pain, your 3 year long "KAKA-WAR" shall end today along with your

life. "

Chi-Chi froze as the ki came flying at her, :I've lost too much blood! I CAN'T MOVE:

" NO! " Goku swung infront of her. The ki blast went through his side and grazed Chi-Chi's left shoulder.

" Goku-SAN! " Chi-Chi cried out.

" I remember where I saw this before. " Goku said, his voice unwavering, " When Freeza killed Veggie. He shot a blast

through Veggie's body and Veggie taunted him on how I would win and he shot Veggie again. I've been thinking a LOT about

Veggie the past two months. I've played this scene a-mong others over and over in my head trying to figure out how I could've

stopped Veggie from getting hurt, or from dying. This is how I could've stopped his first death. If I'd have swung myself

around at exactly the right moment I could've partially stopped the shot. "

Vegeta and Chi-Chi stared at him.

" Well, not bad. Infact I think I like this even better. " Brolli snickered, " Both of you injured and bleeding.

However I'd still prefer to get rid the "Oo-na" was it? First. "

" HEY! You can't use the Ouji's personalized nicknames he uses on others! " Chi-Chi snapped, " And its' pronounced

"Ohna"!..WHOA! " she suddenly felt something lift her up, " Ouji! "

" I'm taking you back to the others before you die of blood loss. " Vegeta explained.

" Man you really don't remember a thing do you. " Chi-Chi folded her arms.

" However it did sound like you were kinda mean to me...maybe I should just drop you now and let you rest in peace."

he grinned.

" ...oh yeah, you're in there alright, Ouji. Still kinda buried but you're in there. " she tapped him on the head.

" Kakarrotto will you be oh-kay until I return with a bean? " Vegeta asked, worried.

" Of course I will Veggie. I promise. " Goku smiled warmly back at him. The ouji's cheeks flushed.

" Don't think on that too much he smiles at you funny like that all the time. " Chi-Chi sighed tiredly. Vegeta

powered up and blasted off back down the hall.

" ... "

" Well we're finally alone. "

" I can't believe you tried to kill Chi-chan. " Goku glowered.

" I almost can't either, what with how I applaud her on her imprisonment of your true feelings and success on

slowing down your relationship with Vejita just enough so absolutely nothing sexual ever evolved out of it. " Brolli mused.

" You are talking about the rules, aren't you? "

" Indeed I am. You see when you watch Vejita you have to watch all those around him as well; get a better feeling for

his surroundings and such. " the densetsu explained, then gave a slightly twisted grin, " I want to make your last stand fun,

Kakarrotto. I want to fight the real you. "

Goku cocked an eyebrow, confused and disturbed.

" Oh, not your amnesiac 2 year year old chibi self, not that. What I'm talking about is I want to battle the uncut,

unedited Kakarrotto. I want to see you fight without all those "Rules" weighing you down. " Brolli chuckled darkly, " I have

a feeling you're quite the animal without them. "

Goku was silent for a moment, then stubbornly shouted, " YOU CANNOT JUST EXPECT ME TO DROP ALL 200 RULES LIKE THEY

ARE NOTHING! "

" I'm just offering. Allowing you to free yourself from those paper chains your mate has wrapped around your every

thought and whim. Perhaps freeing your mind within its last living moments before your existance becomes that of a vaporized

essense sitting in one of my garbage cans until I take out the trash next week will keep you from returning to haunt Vejita

and I after I dispose of the rest of this little rescue party. "

" ... " Goku stared at him suspiciously.

" Afterall I think I actually understand you on this particular level. That headband Toussan forced onto me

surpressed the independent and adventurous assets of my personality.. "

" ..not to mention the bloody and violent ones. "

" ..aren't you cheerful today, Kakarrotto. " Brolli chuckled, amused, " Anyway what that headband did to my mind is

exactly the same thing as what Chi-Chi's rules do to your own. I want to see you without "The Rules" Kakarrotto. I want to

truthfully see what I'm up against as futile a chance you have of winning. I want to see just how much stronger my passion

for Vejita is than your own so I can brag to him over your rotting corpse how you didn't love him nearly as much as I do. "

Goku's body twitched at the word.

" Release it Kakarrotto. Trust me, it feels GOOD. "

Goku made two fists at him.

" Scissors cuts paper. "

CRACK!

His body went numb. The fists released and went limp at his sides. Goku could've sworn he heard glass breaking

somewhere. His ki started to rise as if there were some huge hidden unused pocket of it somewhere. The large saiyajin's

entire body started to shake and Goku let out a cry, grabbing at his neck as if choking. His heart was practically beating

out of his chest as a cold sweat developed over his face, " AH.A...AHHHHHHHHHH! "

" ▫SMACK▫! " Brolli landed a punch across Goku's face, knocking him into the wall, " OH! DID I FORGET TO MENTION ITS

WISE TO BRACE YOURSELF FOR THE ONCOMING EMOTIONAL SHOCK? " he grinned wickedly, " Silly me. " Brolli slammed a kick into

Goku's already bloody side. Goku wailed and stumbled back, disoriented, " That's the thing about being trapped like that for

too long. It's like being so deep underwater so long you start to form gills and EXPLODE once you hit the surface! " he

lundged at Goku again only to have Goku shakily throw his arms out at him.

" KIAH! "

The blast of wind knocked Brolli back just far enough for Goku to regain his surroundings. Goku was still breathing

rapidly now.

Brolli bounced to his feet, " It's all so much to take in, especially when you're in the middle of fighting for your

life. What a fool. You're supposed to slowly release such things, not do it all in one big rule-dumping bindge. Psyches out

your psychological psyche, eh? "

Goku looked over at him with his eyes still bugging out.

" You look like you learned a little something you weren't allowed to know. Good for you. " Brolli formed a large

ball of glowing neon green ki, " NOW TAKE IT TO YOUR GRAVE! "

" You're the only one who's leaving this world today, kusotare. "

Brolli froze. He shook it off and turned around, " Now Vejita what did I tell yo.. " Brolli was shushed again by the

sight before him. The large pink crystal in the middle of Vegeta's headband was shattered, :That cracking sound! It was...:

Vegeta walked past him and up to Goku. Vegeta took his headband off and tossed it over his shoulder to the ground.

:He saw me threatening Kakarrotto's feelings for him...and he broke free...: Brolli thought in shock.

" Veggie? " Goku looked down at him, sniffling.

The ouji smirked up at Goku, " Hey there Kaka-muffin, miss me? "

" OH VEGGIE! " Goku sobbed, hugging him, " OH VEGGIE OF COURSE I MISSED YOU! I MISSED YOU MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE

IN THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD! "

:I've lost him...my sweet little Vejita-chan...his otokohime ceremony was supposed to be only 2 hours from now...

and I've lost him. On my BIRTHDAY I lost him! On KAKARROTTO'S birthday...:

Vegeta hugged Goku back. His pride eternally grateful that his back was facing both Goku and Brolli for tears were

currently streaming freely down his cheeks, " It feels so good. " he mumbled into Goku's shoulder.

Goku pulled out of the hug, " Veggiesaysomething? " he tilted head.

Vegeta quickly rubbed his eyes dry, " Ah, I said, it feels so good..to be back! " he ad-libbed.

Goku smiled brightly at him.

" So I uh, I guess you got my message, huh? "

Goku nodded.

" :) "

A vein bulged on Brolli's forehead, " See this is exactly what I mean! WHAT IS GOING ON WITH YOU TWO! YOU'RE FINALLY

BACK "TOGETHER" AND YOU FLOAT OFF INTO YOUR MAGICAL MUSHY LAND OF WARM EXOTIC SPARRING SETTINGS, ENDLESS CANS OF PEPSI,

A LARGE VARIETY OF FISH-FLAVORED SNACKS AND SUDDENLY FORGET I'M HERE THREATENING THE LIVES OF EVERYONE ON THIS SHIP WITH

VEJITA'S EXCEPTION! " he screamed angrily, waving his arms in the air.

" Huh? " Goku and Vegeta looked over at him, starting to snap out of it.

Brolli folded his arms and started tapping his pointer finger repeated against the upper part of his opposing arm,

" WELL? "

Vegeta adjusted his "Seme" shirt and boldly stepped forward, " Don't worry Kakay, I, the Great and Powerful

Saiyajin no Ouji..MAN does that feel great to say!..will take care of this pest. "

Goku gasped in awe, " But Veggie! "

" ▫POW▫! " Brolli slapped a hand over Vegeta's mouth and slammed his back into the wall.

" AHHHH! " Goku cried out.

" Bet you didn't see that coming? " Brolli grinned wickedly at Goku, who snarled back and went ssj3, " Poor little

Vejita, it'd be such a shame if I CRUSHED HIS HEAD! "

Vegeta's eyes bugged out of their sockets.

" You would not DARE. " Goku stomped one foot forward, " No Veggie-luving person could harm a Veggie! "

" Wanna test me. "

" HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! " Goku flew at him. Brolli yanked Vegeta off the wall and swatted Goku away with him. Goku let

out a yelp and hit the ground.

" I don't care WHO is on Vejita's mind anymore! He's going to be my otokohime before the day is over and I'll be

damned if I let YOU stop me, Kakarrotto! " the densetsu roared painfully.

" You are getting desperate. " Goku narrowed his eyes.

" And YOU aren't getting any "Veggies" today. HAPPY BIRTHDAY KAKARROTTO! " Brolli reformed the green ki blast and

chucked it at him.

" KAKARROTTO! " Vegeta broke his mouth free only to be stunned to see Goku knock the ball away, " ...Kakarrotto? "

" Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr... " the ssj3 let out a low growl at Brolli.

The ouji smirked, " Well, looks like you've got him mad. Kakarrotto's very dangerous when he's mad. "

Brolli snorted.

" AND SO AM I! YAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! " the ouji burst into ssj3 struck his arms up at Brolli, " FINAL FLASH! "

" AAAARG! " Brolli cried out as the bright light engulfed him. He grabbed at his eyes, dropping Vegeta. The ouji

zipped back over beside Goku. Vegeta felt ssj3 taking a toll on his body usually early. He grumbled and dropped back to ssj2.

" Ready Kakarrotto? " the ouji said.

" I am always ready for Veggie. " Goku smiled, then paused, " Why did Veggie drop out of ssj3? "

" My body's a little rusty from lack of training. " Vegeta frustratingly admitted.

" Oh Veggie I am so sorry. " the larger saiyajin said sadly, then turned back to face Brolli. He growled, " We'll

make the Big Meanie pay for that too. "

Brolli glared back at Goku, then rushed at him, " AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRR! "

Goku braced for the impact, then let out a gasp as Brolli diverted at the last second, grabbing Vegeta and racing

off down the hall, " VEGGIE! "

" AARGH! LET GO OF ME! " Vegeta tried to yank his wrist free. Brolli ignored the little ouji completely and continued

to run. Nango tried to smack Brolli's back only to be grabbed and twisted by Kyohaku, the larger tail stopping the

struggling Nango completely.

" Errr.. " Goku fumed, " NAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! " he flew at Brolli, who ducked into a nearby room and shut

the door. Goku skidded to a halt just past said door and promptly grabbed the doorknob. He shook it wildly, " YOU OPEN UP

RIGHT NOW AND GIVE ME MY VEGGIE OR ELSE! "

" Nnngh! " Vegeta tugged harshly at his wrist but to no avail, " This isn't going to work anymore! My head is free

again and Kakarrotto's got an entire miniture army here to help me defeat you! YOU'RE LOSING! " the ouji snapped at him.

" Hush Vejita. " Brolli reached up and semi-roughly flicked the front of the ouji's head, knocking him unconsious,

" It's not over yet. "

/dl

" ▫Knock▫knock▫knock▫ "

" Someone's here! " Gogeta cheered.

" We're saved! " Vejitto happily added.

" ▫Creeeeak▫ Hello? Vejitto? Gogeta? Raditsu? " Bulma stepped inside, followed by Turles, " Turles ask Veggy if this

is the right, urm, dungeon again. "

Turles pressed the button on his scouter, " Hey Veggy, can you hear me? Uh-huh...Veggy says this is the right room;

OH! There's the camera. " the evil type-3 saiyajin pointed to the camera up in the corner of the ceiling.

" BULMA! TURLES! OVER HERE! " Vejitto called out.

Bulma turned in their direction and turned on her flashlight, " ACK! " her face went red and she turned it off,

clutching her nose, " YOU ALL COULD'VE WARNED US THAT YOU WERE NAKED! "

" Naked? " Turles tilted his head in curiousity, then noticed something in the corner of the room, " Oooh! Handcuffs!

I'm keeping this. Infact I think I'll give it to Kakarrotto as a gift. I'm sure he could make some good use out of it with

Vegeta-san; you know, make it harder for Vegeta-san to be stolen from his rightful seme. "

" You do that. " Bulma sweatdropped while wiping her nose.

" What'd you get an eyeful of? "

" Not important. " Bulma walked up to the fusions and turned the flashlight on, this time making sure it was pointed

far enough upward to only unmask their upper bodies, " So. "

" So! " Gogeta chirped.

" Brolli knocked us all unconsious, stripped us and strapped us to the wall. " Vejitto explained.

" WHILE we were unconsious. " Gogeta added, " ...Bulma could you look a-round and see if my clothes are in here

somewhere? That was my special one-of-a-kind fusion uniform. "

" Mine too. " Vejitto realized.

" Well I could help you out if I could find the lightswitch in.. "

" ..▫flick▫ "

" Here. "

Turles stood there by the lightswitch.

" How did you find it? "

" I have my ways. " Turles smirked.

" Whatever you do, don't let him near me. " Raditsu said to Bulma, sweating nervously.

" My lackey fears me? " Turles cocked an eyebrow, amused, " You know, we type-3 saiyajin don't have that much of use

for clothing back in our villages; it's not like I'm going to be scarred or anything by the three of you. "

" GAH! RADITSU! What are you strapped to! "

" I don't know, I don't care, please get it off me. " he smiled cheesily at her.

" Sure! This'll be great practice for my weapons. " Bulma reached back, then punched his shackles, breaking them,

" HaHA! Oh wow did you see that? " she went over to the fusions and unshackled them as well.

Raditsu sat up, " Ah, yeah, I saw it. " he looked around, embarassed, " Aw man where's my gi? "

" Here we go! Raditsu and Vejitto's gi's and Gogeta's fusion dance outfit! " Turles held out the clothes.

" YAY! " the fusions cheered and took their clothes, then started to get dressed. Raditsu took his own as well, but

not without some suspicious reluctance.

" Anything happen since we've been out? " Vejitto asked, pulling his orange t-shirt on.

" Well I'm sure you both know about Gohan. His group met up with us and I gave him a senzu bean. He's feeling better

now but I don't think he'll be able to walk for a few weeks. " Bulma said sadly, " Brolli put a lockdown on the docking bay

so we've got everyone staying in one of the larger bedrooms on the ship. " she continued to explain, " Veggy's group found

the Control Room, they're trying to use it to navigate the ship back towards Earth. Veggy contacted us shortly after Chi-Chi

fled to go after Brolli for attacking Gohan. Goku and Vegeta went after her. That's when Turles and I came down here to

search for you three. "

" A-pparently the Big Meanie thinks of Goggie and I as a threat. He set up a shield as soon as he bumped into us the

first time and knocked us out and left his here when he bumped into us the second time. " Vejitto nodded.

Turles smirked, " I wouldn't be surprised, you two are like a psychological knife-through-the-heart to Brolli.

Offspring conceived by a combination of the object of his affection and his most-hated enemy/rival. He probably didn't try

to kill you both right off because of your Vegeta-san hair or something. "

Gogeta pressed his hand down ontop of Vejitto's head, causing his kaka-spikes to pop out, " Heeeee- "

" Don't do that. " Vejitto sweatdropped, fixing his hair again.

" It's also a very good thing Brolli hasn't seen that yet, or forgotten about it. " Turles added.

" Let's get out of here already. This sorta stuff gives me the creeps. " Raditsu shifted uneasily as he looked around

the room.

" Not a big dungeon fan, are you? " Turles chuckled.

" No, not really. " the larger saiyajin shuddered, heading for the door, " Neither is Vegeta. Freeza used to bring

people to rooms like that to punish them.

" Ah. Gotcha. "

/dl

" Uhhhhhhhhhhhhh... " Vegeta groaned. He felt a draft and squirmed at it. The little ouji opened his eyes to see

where he was, laying on his back on Brolli's bed. Vegeta gulped, then quickly sat up only to see he was now wearing the

official otokohime ceremonial uniform, a uniform of such a high, terrifying level of ukeness it's impossible to describe,

" WAAAAAAAAAAAAH! THE PINKNESS! " he yelped in horror. Vegeta's eyes darted around the room. They stopped on Brolli who was

sitting on the edge of the bed sulking and back down into regular ssj form, " ERRR, ALRIGHT YOU! " Vegeta lept to his feet,

" I'm sick of having my royal semeness not to mention my pride placed under critical condition because of you! Now give me

back my REAL clothes RIGHT NOW! "

" ... "

" Hn. " a vein bulged on the ouji's forehead. He marched up to Brolli and peered over his shoulder to see the

densetsu was holding Vegeta's clothes on his lap, " How convenient. "

" Oh Vejita-chan. " Brolli mumbled while continuing to stare at the clothes on his lap, " Forgive me Vejita-chan. "

" Forgive you? For WHAT! There's such a ridiculously long list now I don't even know WHERE to begin! " the ouji

fumed.

" Forgive me for being such a hypocrite. I worked so hard to escape my Toussan's mind control device only to end up

placing one on you because I was unable to break the bonds between Kakarrotto and yourself. "

" Platonic bonds. " Vegeta corrected him.

Brolli sweatdropped, " Sure Vejita. " he went back to sighing.

" So...you're not planning to take me against my will afterall? " Vegeta asked, suspicious.

" Not against your will, Vejita. I would NEVER do anything like that to you. I just, wanted to see you in your

Ceremonial gown one more time. I wanted to fantasize just a little bit longer. " Brolli mused, smiling tiredly at him.

" ▫POW▫POW▫POW▫ " the sound of Goku attacking the door from the other side became louder.

" We would've been great, Vejita-chan. A legend in our own right. "

" Legends are overrated. "

" Heh. " he smirked wryly, " That's what I like about the real you Vejita, you tell it like it is. "

Vegeta watched him as Brolli stood up.

" ▫POW▫POW▫ "

" Here you are, Vejita. " Brolli handed him his clothes. Vegeta protectively put them under his arm, " May I help you

up? "

Vegeta narrowed his eyes.

" One final request before Kakarrotto breaks in and this room is a memory. Please Vejita? " Brolli smiled, holding

his hand out.

The ouji let out an overexaggerated groan, " Fine. " he held his hand halfway out and Brolli gently pulled him to his

feet, then let go and turned to face the door. The densetsu promptly burst into his densetsu form, causing Vegeta to jump

back, partly stunned.

" ▫BOOOOOOOOOOOM▫! " the door to the room exploded open to reveal Goku standing there in ssj4 with the top half of

his armor ripped away.

" GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRrrrrrrrrrr... " Goku growled viciously, " IF YOU HAVE LAID EVEN A SINGLE

NAUGHTY FINGER AGAINST VEGGIE I SWEAR I WILL MAKE YOU PAY! "

" He hasn't, but let's make him pay anyway. " Vegeta walked up to Goku. The larger saiyajin paused and stared down at

the strange outfit the little ouji was now wearing, " AH.. " Vegeta suddenly noticed the stare, then whipped out his Seme

shirt and put it overtop of the gown, " Haha..ha...you see the shirt, right Kakarrotto. " he laughed nervously.

" I can see Veggie's shirt. " Goku replied, blinking.

" Good. Good. "

" Such an interesting fashion-statement, Vegeta-san. "

The ouji froze and looked over to see Turles standing there, grinning, " Turles. " Vegeta grumbled.

" VEGETA! " a voice exclaimed from behind him. Bulma burst forth and glomped the little ouji tightly, " Oh Vegeta is

it REALLY you? "

" Yes actually. " Vegeta grinned, then paused, " What are those things on your hands? "

" Strength-enhancing power gloves. I made up the name on my way down the hall. " Bulma smiled.

" Hmm! May I use them? "

Bulma frowned, " But, I was going to use them to help you fight Brolli. "

Vegeta pointed to Brolli who was standing there in densetsu form looming over Goku and snarling at him.

Bulma's eyes bugged out of her head, " ...here you go. " she squeaked out, handing the large boxing-glove-like

gloves to him.

The little ouji put the gloves on and let loose a few punches, surprised at how much faster and easier it was.

" They're supposed to temporarily enhance the strength in your punches 100x over. " Bulma nodded confidently.

" You know, that's cheating. "

" IT'S NOT CHEATING! "

" Well anyway they should be of some use, I haven't trained in what feels like forever. I can tell my whole body's

a little off. "

" Mommy the battle started already. " Vejitto popped up.

" HM! " Vegeta blinked, then looked over his shoulder to see Goku and Brolli furiously battling each other, " GAH! "

the ouji nearly fell over, " SEE! THAT'S WHAT I MEAN! My senses are so dulled I didn't even notice that! " he freaked out,

motioning to Brolli and Goku.

" There there Toussan. " Gogeta patted him on the shoulder.

The little ouji sulked for a moment, then perked up and powered up, " ALRIGHT THEN! It's time to take my royal

revenge! " Vegeta burst into ssj2.

Gogeta tilted his head.

" I'm too out of practice to use ssj3 properly, isn't that sad? " Vegeta frowned over his shoulder at the dance

fusion.

" Poor Toussan. "

" Now where was I..OH! Yes, MY REVENGE! " the ouji burst off into the air.

Brolli dodged another of Goku's punches only to be hit with the next one, " I knew it. "

" Knew what! " Goku snapped, dodging Brolli's knee and grabbing him by the ankle, then tossing him over his shoulder

only to have Brolli send a ki blast at Goku's back, knocking him into the wall. Goku bounced back off and slammed into

Brolli's chest, setting off two ki blasts, one of them ontop of the wound Chi-Chi inflicted. Brolli flinched and swung his

arm at Goku only to have the smaller saiyajin teleport behind him and land a roundhouse kick to the back of Brolli's head.

" I knew it all along. Since the last time I saw you and Vejita, since the time before that when we were all still

chibis on Bejito-sei. " Brolli turned to punch Goku only to have Goku successfully block with equal force.

" Grrrrrrrrrr... " a gutteral noise came deep within Goku's throat.

Brolli smirked.

" ▫POW▫! " something heavy slammed across his face.

" BWAHAHA! FEEL THE POWER OF THE GREAT AND POWERFUL SAIYAJIN NO OUJI! " Vegeta swung around and kicked Brolli in the

front of the face, then did a backflip onto the densetsu's shoulders.

" VEGGIE! " Goku gushed with admiration.

" Why yes my glorious peasant I am here to save the day and your life from my wicked captor. " the ouji puffed out

his chest with pride.

" Vejita PLEASE I don't want to fight you! " Brolli looked up at him beggingly.

" Well maybe I want to fight you. Have you ever thought of that? That's another thing, you never let me train!

Kakarrotto ALWAYS involves me in his training and only interupts my own when he's on an emergancy. " Vegeta folded his arms.

" GASP! " Goku gasped with excitement, " Veggie lets do a fusion! "

" WAHH! " Vegeta nearly fell off Brolli's shoulders while the other two saiyajin continued to grapple, " KAKARROTTO

I JUST GOT MY MEMORIES/PERSONALITY BACK WHY WOULD I WANT TO DO A FUSION WITH YOU NOW! "

" Because Veggie luvs me? " the larger saiyajin said innocently with big sparkily eyes.

Vegeta sweatdropped and flushed red, " T..th..that's not a reason. "

" Because if me 'n Veggie fuse I think our combined fusion power could beat the Big Meanie? "

" ...oh-kay, that one was a reason..but STILL! "

" Because if we fuse it'll make the Big Meanie really really mad and confused? "

Vegeta blinked, " I like that one. "

" Hee"

" Alright, " the ouji bopped a fist down ontop of Brolli's head, then hopped off his shoulders and onto the ground,

" let's go for it! "

" YAY! I get to "be one" with Veggie! " Goku powered down and back into ssj2 so he could align his ki with the

smaller saiyajin's.

" ... " Vegeta paled, his eyes bugging out of his head, " On second thought.. "

Goku's eyes went big and watery again and his bottom lip started to wobble.

" ..nevermind the second thought. Let's go. " Vegeta gulped, assuming the position.

" WHEE! " Goku bounced several feet away from him.

" Oh this is going to be fun. " Turles whipped out some popcorn and a movie-house chair.

" Don't mind if we do! " Vejitto took a handful of popcorn out of the container. Turles looked to see the fusions now

each in an identical movie chair on either side of him.

The evil type-3 saiyajin shrugged, unfazed and took out a few more pieces of popcorn.

" Ready Veggie? " Goku grinned.

Vegeta nodded bravely, " H..hai. "

" Fyuuuuuuuuuuu.. " they both said in unison as they performed the moves, " ..jon! HAAAAAAAAA! " a bright light

engulfed the room around them, then dissipated a moment later to reveal Gogeta standing there, " PREPARE TO FACE YOU DOOM! "

he pointed at Brolli.

" o.O " Brolli stood there gawking at him in disturbed shock. His jaw fell open and hit the ground.

" ...WELL? " Gogeta urged him to say something, his tail flicking about behind him in its own mild ecstasy.

" WHAT THE HELL DID YOU JUST DO TO YOURSELVES! " Brolli practically shrieked in horror.

" Wahhh-! " Gogeta facefaulted.

" He's never seen the fusion dance I take it. " Turles chuckled, amused.

" That he hasn't! " Vejitto chirped. Gogeta, the one in the chair, took another handful of popcorn.

" Oh MY.. " Brolli grabbed Gogeta and picked him up in shock, " What did you DO! " he flipped the saiyajin around as

if trying to find some way to pull him apart back into Goku and Vegeta.

" Looking for me, eh? " only Vegeta's voice spoke this time. It snickered.

" VEJITA! " the densetsu snapped half in panic half in anger as he turned the fusion to face him, " YOU GET OUT OF

THERE RIGHT NOW! "

" HA! You cannot have Veggie right now or ever so I do not think you have any right to order Veggie a-round. " Goku's

voice said. Brolli snarled at him.

" TELL ME HOW TO GET KAKARROTTO OUT OF YOUR BODY, VEJITA! "

" You can't just pull me out. You gotta wait 30 minutes. " Vegeta held up three of Gogeta's fingers.

" HaHA, THREE. " Turles laughed.

" SHUDDUP YOU! " Vegeta snapped at him. Gogeta pulled his knees up and kicked Brolli in the chest, knocking him back

with a surprisingly powerful amount of force. The dance fusion flipped and landed on the floor.

Brolli got to his feet, pale, " It's like some sort of sick nightmare. "

" Yeah well I've been living my own sick nightmare for the past 2 months because of you! " Vegeta pointed at him

accusingly.

" YEAH! " Goku agreed and Gogeta nodded in agreement.

" OOOOOOH. " the densetsu growled, " Thirty minutes, huh? I can avoid killing you in the next 30 minutes but deal you

enough pain so that when you seperate I can kill Kakarrotto off before he gets a chance to take a single breath. " Brolli

smirked.

Gogeta smiled in amusement, " I dunno, do you really think your conscience will allow you to seriously injure me

knowing "Vejita"'s inside here as well? " he motioned to himself, " You could hit me all you like but when we seperate

Kakarrotto won't be the only one with his share of physical injuries. "

Brolli twitched.

" Heh-heh! " the dance fusion grinned, " And you were the one trying to mess with MY head about mental dilemmas like

this! "

" It's interesting to see another you around, Goggie. " Vejitto commented.

The Gogeta seated a seat away from him nodded, " Like an out-of-body ex-periance, Jitto! " he chirped.

Brolli closed his eyes and thought for a moment, then opened them and walked up to the new Gogeta and placed his

hands on the fusion's shoulders, " Forgive me, Vejita-chan. "

" Uh... " Gogeta blinked.

" ▫POW▫! " Brolli punched the fusion in the stomach, sending him flying. Gogeta caught himself and skidded to a halt,

then ran at Brolli who dodged a punch only to have Gogeta swing around and kick him through the wall. Brolli hit the floor,

stunned, " So that's Kakarrotto and Vejita's powers combined. " he partially sat up and narrowed his eyes, " Well then.. "

Gogeta stared at the large hole he'd created, a serious look on his face.

" ▫FWOOOSH▫ " dozens of green ki balls arose out of the darkness and suddenly flew at him. The fusion successfully

dodged all 48, " Heh-heh..GAH? " he froze to Brolli stand up with a huge ball of ki in his hands, " YAAAAAAAAAAH! " he

threw it at Gogeta, who caught the ball of ki and started to try and push it back the other way, struggling.

" TOUSSAN! MOMMY! " Vejitto stood up, worried, " Do you want us to help? "

Gogeta burst into ssj3 and thrust the ki ball at Brolli, who was hit but remained unflinching, " No thanks Ji-chan,

but if there ends up being a round 2...I think I might need it. "

" Fools, YOU THINK THIS IS A GAME! " he rushed at Gogeta only to have something trip him and send him flying through

the opposite wall and into the next room.

" Haha. " Bulma laughed nervously, standing there with her superboots out.

" AND STOP MAKING ME BREAK THE WALLS OF MY SPACESHIP! " Brolli snapped, leaping out this time only have a ki blast

launch at him.

" BIG BANG KAMEHAMEHA! " Gogeta shouted.

" HAAAAAAAAAAA! " Brolli formed his own, green ki blast and sent it back at the Big Bang Kamehameha. The two blasts

collided in a struggle, both sides pushing forward. A mixture of green and blue ki lit up the room.

" ... "

" You know Vejita, I think Kakarrotto has something to tell you. " Brolli smirked.

Gogeta flinched.

" Now is not the time for mind games. " the fusion replied.

" Does he have a mental block around his thoughts, Vejita? He's afraid to tell you, go ahead, check! "

Gogeta narrowed his eyes at Brolli suspiciously while Vegeta poked around inside his shared mind only to let out a

gasp at the sheer size of the mental block around Goku's side of their brain, " KAKARROTTO! " he gasped.

" Veggie? " Goku squeaked out nervously.

" Ah... " the fusion turned back to face Brolli, " Kakarrotto's allowed his privacy ya know. If he wants to put up a

block then let him do so. "

" Yes but he's never been compelled to do so in the past. I wonder why...? " Brolli teased.

" It's because YOU were taunting him about Onna's Rules! " Vegeta snapped, " Kakarrotto's sensitive about those rules

so lay off him! "

" I think I know why he hugs you so much. It's the closest physical contact he can make with you without breaking the

"Rules". " Brolli grinned wickedly.

Gogeta's face flushed, " STOP THAT! " Goku's voice cried out.

" LEAVE KAKARROTTO ALONE! " Vegeta roared, pushing the Big Bang Kamehameha even further and surprising Brolli at his

suddenly burst of energy. Brolli struggled to hold his ground on his own attack.

" I DID leave him alone! I left his family and friends alone! I left his planet alone! BUT HE HAD TO COME AND RUIN

ALL THAT BY TRYING TO "RESCUE" YOU! " the densetsu snarled.

" I'm GLAD Kakarrotto came to rescue me! It proves that he cares about me. " the ouji smiled.

" Aw Veggie.. " Goku said, touched.

" Errrrrrr.. " Brolli growled, " HAAAAAAAAA! " he let another blast of energy into his attack, pushing it back

again.

Gogeta felt the two blasts start to become volatile. He froze, " QUICK EVERYONE GET OUT OF THE WAY! "

" ! " the others stared at him in shock.

" NO TOUSSAN WE WANNA HELP! " the original Gogeta shouted, worried.

" Come on Goggie, I have plan. " Vejitto stood up.

" Huh? " he blinked.

" Ohhhhhhh... " Gogeta struggled with the ki blasts while trying to build up his own ki, " HAAAAAAAAAAAA! " he burst

into ssj4 and instantly his Big Bang Kamehameha overpowered Brolli's blast, sending the densetsu and the ki flying down the

hall, " ▫WHEW▫ " Gogeta landed back on the ground and wiped the sweat from his brow.

" Unnngh...AAARG! " Brolli slowly lifted the huge ball of ki that was propelling him, then kicked it upwards into

the air. He hit the ground with incredible force, causing a large dent in the floor, " Ohh. " Brolli rubbed the side of his

head, then felt a gust of wind from above and froze. He looked up to see the hole created went all the way through the roof,

" AHHHHH! MY SPACESHIP! "

" ▫SMACK▫! " something kicked the side of Brolli's head while the other punched him in the chest. The two figures

flipped and landed before him.

" Heee- we'll make you pay for what you did to Mommy! " Vejitto, now in ssj2, happily announced.

" Mmm-hmm. We won't just stand around and let you hurt people! " Gogeta added.

" Yes, you two.. " Brolli mumbled to himself, then raised his arm, " THE ONE IN THE GI DIES FIRST! "

" DON'T YOU HURT JITTO! " Gogeta snapped, forming a sparkily ki ball and tossing it at Brolli, hitting him in the

arm.

Brolli growled at him, then turned back only to see Vejitto no longer there.

" Yeah, infact, we're not letting you hurt anyone else. " Vejitto was now standing on Brolli's shoulders. He grabbed

the densetsu in a headlock. Brolli tried to jerk him off only to have something grab his hands from behind.

" HUH? "

" Hahaha. " Gogeta laughed, tying Brolli's wrists together with a ki ring and holding them there.

" ERRR...VEJITA'S CHILDREN OR NOT YOU'LL BOTH DIE, KAKARROTTO-SPAWN! "

" I don't think that's going to happen. "

Brolli looked down to see the ssj4 Gogeta standing before him, smirking. The fusion assumed his position, " This

time you won't be able to bounce anything back. " he started to form the ki in his hands.

" UH? NNNA URRG AAAAH! " Brolli struggled against the fusions, trying to break free. Vejitto and Gogeta burst into

ssj3 and held tighter.

" BIG BANG KAMEHAMEHA! " the ssj4 let loose the blast at Brolli's chest. Vejitto and Gogeta instantly let go and

lept out of the way as the blast flew straight through Brolli and sent him back several more feet before landing on his

back, his chest smoking from the ki.

Vejitto stared at Brolli for a moment, " Is he...dead? "

" I, think so. " ssj4 Gogeta said curiously, then let out a yelp as something ripped him in half, causing a

disoriented Goku and Vegeta to appear with a pop.

" Huh? " Goku blinked.

" AAH! What was that! That couldn't have been 30 minutes! " Vegeta gawked.

" I think that was only around 10. " Vejitto thought outloud.

" Why was that? "

" Maybe... " Goku trailed off, " Ssj4 speeds up the fusion process? "

" You think? " the ouji said, then grinned, " Well at least I'm back in my own body! "

Goku glomped the smaller saiyajin, " Mmm- oh Veggie... "

Vegeta flushed red.

" Ah...a...TOUSSAN KAASAN! " Gogeta shouted, staring upwards, " THE CEILING! "

" What a-bout the ceiling, Goggie? " Goku looked over and gasped to see the huge gaping hole in the roof that was

currently sucking out parts of the inside of the ship, " AAAAH! VEGGIETHECEILING! " he plopped Vegeta on the ground.

" Wahhh? " Vegeta stumbled about, then shook the redness off his face and looked up, " ...we gotta get out of

here. " he said bluntly.

" Come on Goggie, let's get everyone together and we'll all meet at the docking bay. " Vejitto instructed, running

off.

Gogeta paused and turned to Goku and Vegeta, " Toussan 'n Kaasan gonna be oh-kay? "

" Yeah Gogeta we'll umm, we'll meet up with you in a bit. " Vegeta said, slightly lost.

The fusion shrugged, then uneasily turned to run off after Vejitto.

" ... "

" Kakarrotto? " the ouji spoke up.

" Veggie? "

An awkward silence hung in the air.

" Umm, I uh.. " Vegeta scratched the back of his head, " I want to say, what I mean is... "

Goku smiled hopefully at him, causing the ouji to flush red over his nose.

" T..thank you Kakarrotto for coming out all this way and risking your life to rescue me, and Nango, and my Oujidom

all from certain uke-filled doom. " Vegeta twiddled his thumbs.

" ▫GLOMP▫ " Goku glomped him tightly, " OH VEGGIE I THOUGHT I WOULD NEVER SEE YOU AGAIN! " he wailed, " I WANNA STAY

WITH YOU ALWAYS, VEGGIE! "

" ! " this time all of Vegeta's face went red.

The larger saiyajin let go and this time grabbed the ouji's hands. The flush had faded from most of Vegeta's face,

his cheeks an exception. Goku bent down to Vegeta's eye-level, " Veggie, I... "

" ... " the little ouji was breathing heavily now, nervous sweat dripping down his face and arms.

" I...I... "

The room was spinning now, a feeling of dizzying vertigo overcame Vegeta, " Yes? "

" I ♥ you Veggie! "

" ... "

" ...▫blink▫blink▫... " Vegeta blinked, then started to laugh with nervous relief, " Haha...ha..haha... " he wiped

the sweat from his brow, " Heart symbols..the blurry gray blob between "luv" and "love"...oh Kakarrotto you're a GENIUS! "

the ouji beamed proudly and hugged the larger saiyajin, " I ♥ you too, Kakay! " he said warmly, " You wonderful,

perfect peasant! " Vegeta sighed contently, then let go and smiled up at Goku.

" :) "

" Kakarrotto? " Vegeta cocked an eyebrow.

Goku leaned down and forward, " ▫SWAK▫! "

" O.O " Vegeta froze, " Mm...m..m... "

" Mmmmmmm... "

Vegeta's body twitched in a flurry of tiny spasms. He reached forward and grabbed onto Goku's back and pushed back,

" Mmm...! " the ouji suddenly froze, then pulled free and clutched his mouth, :DON'T. SWALLOW.:

" Huh? " Goku blinked, still in a daze.

Vegeta leaned over and spat out a huge mouthful of germs, " BLAAAH! " he then gasped for air as the baby kaka-germs

splattered all over the floor, " ▫PANT▫ ▫PANT▫ ▫PANT▫ " Vegeta turned to Goku, shuddering, " KAKARROTTO SPIT! "

" ... " Goku stood there with his cheeks puffed up.

" OHHHhh.. " Vegeta quickly dashed around and grabbed Goku from behind as if performing a heimlich manuver, " SPIT! "

he grabbed tightly, causing Goku to spit out an equally large puddle of germs. Vegeta let go of him and fell leaning against

the side of the wall, " I wonder if I got them all. " he whimpered, then grabbed his tongue and tried to look down at it for

any remaining red dots, " Oh I HOPE I got them all! " the little ouji started to shake again.

Goku nervously looked around the room, uneasy and unsure of what to do.

" Wh..what WAS that! " Vegeta turned to him, a frightened look in his eyes.

Goku backed up, equally as frightened. He raised his fists and held them over his mouth.

Vegeta spat again, this time out of paranoia, " Kakarrotto? " he said, worried.

Goku backed up again, this time into the wall.

" D-d..don't worry, it's oh-kay. I'm not mad at you really I'm not. "

" I broke the rules. "

" NO! You didn't Kakarrotto you didn't break anything! That was..ah..just some random spur-of-the-moment sort of

thing just now. We'll just chalk that, ah, whateveritwas up to a brief moment of insanity. It'll never, ever happen again.

It didn't mean anything. "

" ... "

" Did it? "

The larger saiyajin stared at him intensely, " Veggie knows the answer. "

" N..NO! NO I DON'T! " Vegeta grabbed the sides of his head, " I couldn't possibly...w..with YOU, I... "

" I think a-bout Veggie all the time. " Goku looked down at his feet, " I think a-bout how nice Veggie is and how

much fun we have together and how much better I feel when Veggie's around. "

Vegeta was silent for a moment, " Kakarrotto...those, heart-symbols. Was yours sort of just a regular plain red heart

like the candies with the messages on them, or was it one of those non-platonic flowery-scented frilly pink hearts with the

lacy outlining and heavy sexual undertones? " he gulped.

" I... " Goku trailed off, then looked away, " What was Veggie's? " he said while avoiding eye-contact.

" UH! " Vegeta froze in place.

Goku bent down and took a deep breath, then whispered to him, " I will tell you everything if you tell me

everything. "

Vegeta's eyes darted nervously around the room, " E..everything? "

Goku scooted closer.

" Everything. " Vegeta repeated, his voice echoing in the room and sounding small and alone.

" It'll be between just Veggie 'n me. I promise. " Goku smiled.

" What if I say no? "

The larger saiyajin frowned, " Well then...Veggie 'n me'll just leave this room right now and we don't have to talk

a-bout us breaking any rules at all. " he said quietly, " We could just forget about it. "

" ... "

Vegeta stared up at him, " Kakarrotto, I'm tired of forgetting. "

Goku smiled.

/dl

" WAAAAAAAAAH! WHERE ARE THEY! " Chi-Chi exclaimed; the entire group was back in the ship. She and Gohan were

each on hospital beds in Turles' ship. Everyone had been accounted for except Goku and Vegeta.

" Toussan and Kaasan said they were coming right be-hind us. " Gogeta gulped, worried.

Chi-Chi grabbed a spare scouter and put it on, then struggled to her feet, " ALRIGHT! "

" K-ka..KAASAN? Where are you going! " Gohan gawked as Chi-Chi grabbed a nearby pole and used it to like a cane,

" I'm GOING to march back into that ship and DRAG them out if I have to! " she complained, walking towards the door

to the ship.

" Ack! Chi-Chi no! Let one of us go you're not well! " Mirai protested only to have Chi-Chi whip around and smack him

in the side with her pole, " OOF! " Mirai tumbled backwards.

" I'm just fine, thanks. " she snorted.

" You lost 2 pints of blood, how is that fine! " Bulma sweatdropped.

" Hmmph! " Chi-Chi reached for the doorknob and flung the door open, " ALRIGHT GOKU-SAN! HERE I CO..- "

" :) " Goku stood there in the doorway with Vegeta piggybacked ontop of him.

" Hi Chi-chan! Sorry we're late. Are you oh-kay? "

" Uh...fine. " she said, confused as Goku walked inside and shut the door behind him, " HEY! WAITAMINUTE WHY IS THE

OUJI ON YOUR BACK? "

" Nice to see you again too Onna. " Vegeta glanced over at her, " You're welcome for saving your life back there. "

Chi-Chi folded her arms and looked away, " Yeah thanks a lot. " she mumbled, embarassed, " I'm in your DEBT now,

aren't I? "

" You know I wasn't thinking about that but now that you bring it up... " Vegeta trailed off, then grinned.

She stared at him in astonishment, realizing what she'd just done, " !...AARG! " Chi-Chi stomped her foot on the

ground, then let out a moan and stumbled forward.

" You should lay down. " Vegeta nodded.

" Uh-huh. " she rolled her eyes and walked back over to the hospital bed, then did so.

" By the way everyone before I got change into my rightful clothing I'd like to remind you all that today is

Kakarrotto's Birthday and there shall be cake for you all once we return to Earth. " Vegeta announced, then hopped off Goku's

shoulders. The larger saiyajin handed Vegeta the rest of his clothes and the little ouji headed into a nearby room to get

changed.

" ... " the others stared at Goku in shock.

" Today is REALLY... " Bulma whipped out her pda and checked her calender, " WAHHH? It IS Son's birthday! "

" I had the BEST birthday EVER, Bulma! " Goku chirped happily.

" Y..you're kidding! With everything that happened? THIS is "the best birthday ever"? " Chi-Chi exclaimed.

" Mmm-hmm! " Goku nodded contently.

Vegeta proudly kicked the door open and re-entered the room wearing his gloves, boots, and the little blue gi.

" ... " Chi-Chi's jaw hung open.

" WOW! Go Kakarrotto! " Turles grinned, impressed.

Goku sweatdropped.

" What? There's nothing wrong with me wearing loose-fitted clothing for a change? " Vegeta smirked, " Besides after

all those uke-costumes I've been wearing for the past two months this kaka-gi is a breath of fresh air! "

" Best birthday EVER! " Goku clasped his hands together with joy.

" Don't forget your cape! " Bura held out Vegeta's ouji cape, " Your SEME cape. "

" Why thank you, Bura. " he put it on, " There. "

" You know, if we're all going to get out of here in one piece I'd suggest everybody get in their seats and strap

their seatbelts on. " Turles advised, hitting several buttons on the control panel.

Everyone who wasn't already seated started to do so. Vegeta sat down near the back and motioned Goku over by patting

the seat cushion. Goku smiled warmly and plopped down beside the ouji.

" :) "

" o.O " Chi-Chi stared at the, bug-eyed, " Are...you two sure you're alright? "

" I have never felt better Chi-chan, because I have my Veggie and my Veggie has me! " Goku grinned, leaning against

Vegeta's side.

" That's my peasant. " Vegeta contently patted Goku on the back.

" O.O " Chi-Chi paled, then turned back around in her seat, " No. I'm not going to question it. I'm feeling queasy as

it is, its just best to let them go and rest. The Ouji will remember about the kaka-germs in a few seconds and start freaking

out and everything will be as it was before all of this happened. " she tried to reassure herself, " ...I hope! "

/dl

The lights flicked on and off throughout the ship. A lone figure stumbled dizzily through the hallways clutching his

chest while the entire spaceship began to quake and rock beneath his feet. He kicked open the door to the docking bay and

turned his attention to the sole get-a-way ship with a cloud of heavy sadness hanging over him, " ... "

/dl

" Well, we're out of range of any flying debris from Brolli's ship. " Turles smirked as they continued on their way

home, " It'll take us a couple days to get back to Earth, but I don't mind, I'm just glad Vegeta-san's back where he

belongs. "

" On Earth? " Bulma guessed.

" Nope! With Kakarrotto! " Turles grinned.

" Platonically. " Chi-Chi added.

Bura poked her head out around the corner to see Goku and Vegeta had both fallen asleep in their seats and were

now leaning against each other for support, " Awwwwwwwww! "

" ▫BOOM▫! " a small shake covered the ship.

" What was that! " Veggy looked around, nervous.

" That, was the sound of Brolli's ship exploding. Or imploding, I forget which it is when you smash a hole through

the ship. " Turles scratched his head.

Bulma looked back at Goku and Vegeta, who were still both fast asleep. She smiled, " Didn't skip a beat. "

/dl

And so, things returned to normal.

" OUJIIIIIIII! "

Semi-normal.

" Yes? " Vegeta's mouth quirked up into a smirk as he cut another piece of his waffle and ate it.

" It's been a week. I'm pretty sure its safe for you to go back to sleeping in your OWN bed by now! " Chi-Chi folded

her arms. Vegeta was sitting next to Goku in bed; both of them in their gi's and eating breakfast. Vegeta had made pancakes

and waffles for himself and Goku was eating a fish he'd caught and cooked.

" But Chi-chan! Veggie is still e-motionally damaged. " Goku gasped, worried.

" Yeah Onna, I'm in pain! " Vegeta exclaimed overdramatically, leaning his head against Goku's arm.

" You'll be a lot more than emotionally damaged when I get through with you. " she twitched, rolling up her sleeves.

" Now now, is that any way to talk to the person who saved your life? " Vegeta smirked.

" You're just going to hold that over my head for the rest of my life, aren't you? " Chi-Chi said dryly.

" Veggie's right Chi-chan, he saved your life. " Goku nodded, then paused, " Though Veggie didn't remember who you

were at the time... "

Vegeta sweatdropped, " Gah?...well, the point is, Onna owes me. " he whipped out a small bottle and sprayed his

fork, then grabbed another chunk of waffle off the plate, " Waffles for Kakay? " the ouji smiled.

" I would be de-lighted, Veggie! " Goku said happily. Vegeta stuck the fork into Goku's mouth, then pulled it out,

sprayed it, and rubbed it dry.

" o.O " Chi-Chi's jaw hung open, " Ah...I...AH... "

" Heh, introducing Peasant Repel 2: Edible formula! " Vegeta grinned holding out the little bottle, " With this I

don't have to worry about accidentally eating something Kakarrotto has infected! All I have to do is spray it the way I do

with the original formula! "

" What happened to cause you to ask Bulma for an EDIBLE formula? You're not planning on sharing ALL your food with

Goku-san from now on, are you? "

" Hm? No, no. I had a small, non-affecting-me-in-any-way tramatic kakaxperiance and decided I should find a way to

protect my insides from the kaka-germs as well. " Vegeta said casually.

" Heeheehahaha. "

Vegeta turned to Goku incrediously, " DON'T LAUGH ABOUT IT LIKE IT WAS A FUN AND PLEASURABLE EXPERIANCE! "

" ...▫giggle▫. "

Vegeta laughed nervously, " Ah haha...ha.. " he turned to Chi-Chi, " Nothing happened. "

" Uh-huh? " she cocked an eyebrow, then turned to leave the room, " This is the last day I'm letting you sleepover

like this; special germ-repel or not. " Chi-Chi snorted, then grabbed her side slightly. She'd had a senzu bean for the

wound Brolli inflicted but still ended up with a semi-large bruise. Chi-Chi shook her head and left the room.

" So? How's the happy couple? Enjoying your honeymoon? "

Vegeta looked over to see someone grinning at him through the window, " WAH! " he yelped and nearly fell out of the

bed.

" Morning Turles! " Goku chirped.

The evil type-3 saiyajin was standing there with his elbows leaning down upon the open windowsill, " Goodmorning,

fellow seme. "

" We're NOT a couple, Turles. " Vegeta gritted his teeth, annoyed and embarassed.

" Hmm, sleeping in the same bed, eating breakfast together in said bed, sharing your breakfasts and eating-utencils

with one another...? " Turles grinned wickedly, trailing off.

" It means nothing! " Vegeta snapped at him.

" So what else do you do in Kakarrotto's bed together, Vegeta-san? " Turles chuckled.

" Nothing! Infact, I'm getting out of this bed right now. " Vegeta hopped out.

" Veggie.. " Goku said sadly, flopping his head down onto his pillow.

Vegeta paused and turned around, holding his hand out, " Come, Kakarrotto. " he smiled.

" YAY! " Goku gushed and practically glomped the ouji's hands. Vegeta's face flushed red as he quickly pulled it

away.

" Haha...ha. "

" Where are going Veggie? " Goku asked.

" Someplace nice and quiet where I can't disturb you? " Turles snickered.

" Hai, someplace nice, quiet, and PLATONIC. " Vegeta walked over to a nearby suitcase and took his usual training

outfit out.

" Oh...you're using the gi as..pajamas. " the evil type-3 saiyajin said, slightly disheartened.

" After what happened to me I feel that if anyone else decides to kidnap me in the middle of the night I should at

least have SOMETHING on to protect me aside from boxer shorts. " he swapped the gi top for this tank-top, " Kakarrotto and I

are going to go spar. " he swapped the wristbands for the gloves, however keeping the gi pants and sash on, causing Turles

to smirk wickedly to himself.

:Vegeta-san's still wearing the gi pants. I wonder why...:

Vegeta turned to Goku, " Hai Kakarrotto? "

" Mmm-hmm! " Goku nodded happily, " I missed sparring-time with Veggie SO! "

" Well then what are we waiting for! " Vegeta pumped his fist in the air and hopped out of the open window, followed

by Goku.

" But...what about...? " Turles blinked, confused.

" Kakarrotto and I have come to an understanding. One of which neither you nor anyone else need knowledge of. " the

ouji said, then powered up and hovered in the air, " Come, Kakarrotto! " he blasted off into the sky.

" HAHA! RIGHT BEHIND YOU, VEGGIE! " Goku excitedly called out, flying off after him.

" ... " Turles stood there, watching them fly off. He chuckled a bit, then burst into laughter, " BWAHAHA! "BEHIND"

you! HAHAAAA...ahh. I luv this planet. "

Epilogue

" ▫BEEEEEEEEEEEEOOOOOOOOOOOO▫ " the sound of something hurtling downwards out of the sky screamed from above.

Various passersby looked up as the object flew past them and crash-landed into the nearby beach, steam coming up off the

metalic outer shell.

A little girl poked the large object with a stick only to have her mother shriek and quickly pull her away. Those

on the beach and street beyond stared in confused awe as the door to the ship flipped open and a heavily-bleeding figure

stumbled out, clutching his chest. He grabbed onto the door for support and smiled weakly at the massing crowds, " I need a

vacation. " he leaned to the side and passed out.

THE END!

Chuquita: WOOHOO!

Vegeta: (sweatdrops) You do realize this chapter is big enough to be two 70kb chapters on its own?

Chuquita: Yes. (to audiance) I apologize for the super-amazing-longness of this chapter, but I really didn't want to make a

Part 11 (though some may think I should have with this chapter-size).

Goku: (happily) Well I have my Veggie back safe and sound and that is all I need to know!

Vegeta: Interesting way to handle the climax.

Chuquita: (nervous laugh) Hai. I tried so super-hard to figure out something that could please everybody on some level. I

hope I succeeded. I mean, there was some level 3-ness in there, but it wasn't overly mushy and/or non-platonic. I dunno.

Vegeta: Thank word for its heart-symbols.

Chuquita: Heh- (grins weakly).

Vegeta: (grins) Also whatever Kakarrotto and I discussed was kept a mystery.

Chuquita: Mmm-hmm :)

Vegeta: (pales) However I ended up sleeping in the same bed as Kakarrotto for a week.

Goku: Mmm-hmm :)

Vegeta: (flushes red)

Brolli: Also, I'm alive! (grins)

Chuquita: Yah, but you got a lot of recovering to do, so you're gonna be taking a detour for a little while.

Brolli: I suppose I would need a break after 10 chapters..that's more than 3 months with your average chapter turnout rate.

Chuquita: (nods) Hai. (to audiance) The next fic is the belated "Veggietine's Day 4!". I'm also planning another possible

Piccolo oneshot that covers his entire temporary reign of Earth. The reason I didn't mention much of what Piccolo was doing

while ruler of earth in this fic was because all that is going to be compiled into the oneshot.

Vegeta: Ah.

Chuquita: There's also a Super 17 parody coming up sometime. And a oneshot or two-chaptered fic with the Bejito-sei gang,

chibi Veggie, toddler Goku, and teenage Raditsu included, at the beach. Oh! I'm also going to do a continuation of what

happened to the Goku and Veggie of timeline 4. There will eventually be an Evil Shenlong saga parody as well. (thinks)

Vegeta: (to Chu) It's oh-kay if your thoughts are slightly jumbled. You've been working on the same fic for 10 weeks now,

no wonder.

Chuquita: Aw, thanks Veggie. (to audiance) I promise I'll have all the upcoming-fics in order soon. Aside from those I

mentioned I also have to go back and check my "Upcoming Fics List" in my folder for the others.

Vegeta: I'm just happy Brolli's leaving the Corner after this chapter ends.

Goku: (grins) Yeah!

Brolli: (sweatdrops) ...

Chuquita: And now for the reviewer-replies!

To Hakura0: Hai, he is. (sweatdrops). I'm not completely sure, but I think I ended up combining them all somehow. Infact if

you look closely each level is in this chapter in some form. I think the order in the chapter in which the levels appeared

is sort of out of order (Level 2 for instance, happens first) but that's oh-kay.

To x The Chichi Slaughter House x: Hi and welcome:D Glad you like the fic so far!

To mkh2: Yup! This is my 3rd appearance. That first one you mentioned was from "Are You My Mommy?" :) Originally they didn't

have names. You see I had 3 different climaxes and I told someone about it and while talking I randomly decided to call them

"levels" (like levels in a videogame) and...this happened. (nervous laugh). Heh, Veggie's mushiness is mostly due to his

temporary lack of memories. Aw, thanks for the favorite! You mean disk cleanup? I use that a lot recently. :)

To Vegeta Prince of Pineapples: Don't worry, Veggie's oh-kay. Yup, Goku figured it out. More on that topic in "Veggietine's

Day 4!" (nods) :) Happy you like it!

To Albino Black Sheep: Hope you liked the battle. Veggie did have quite a few uke moments in this chapter.

To Angel Hunter: Hai, Goku and Veggie taking turns is an option as well.

To GogetaJr: Yup! Brolli's been defeated! Turles has definately changed something. Further stuff on that will be revealed in

the next fic. Well..Brolli almost died. (sweatdrops) But don't worry, I don't intend on bringing him back for a while. Aw,

thanks so much! Yeah, I have 3 pages this time to reply to. (sweatdrops) This is the early part of page 2. Glad you liked

that part! Videl should be due in either May or June. Well, it's sorta level 3. :)

To orchideater: Lol, this fic is really long. (wonders how many words something has to be to reach "novel" length?). Hee,

glad you liked that part. I enjoyed writing Veggie with the orange icing. At least he doesn't have to be shocked anymore :)

It turns out in the end they couldn't, since the battle ended up destroying the ship. Level 3 is one of three possible

climaxs for the fic. Level 1 is Goku and Veggie staring at each other during the climax, Level 2 is them hugging, and Level 3

is a kiss and Goku and Veggie admitting things.

To Wolfcrysta: I'm glad Goku's better too :) Lol, actually its more like she really doesn't want me to write Goku and Veggie

into a yaoi-ish situation. While Turles and Bura are opposing forces on Goku 'n Veggie's relationship, Chi-Chi's the

opposing force to both Turles and Bura. Well I'm eventually going to need Brolli for a future fic or two (he's already

appeared in a few fics that take place further in the future) so I can't exactly kill him off completely. Yup, Gotenks is

dangerous :D Heh, Gohan and Videl are going to try to avoid Chi-Chi now that she knows. Veggie remembered completely in this

chapter, and helped beat Brolli. Poor Kaio-sama, lol! Wow, 6 times in a row is good. :) I'm currently playing "Buu's Fury"

and I'm halfway through, almost to Janemba! The finger. Ooh, lots of shiny things :D Ah, I have a large messy pile of doodles

ontop of my printer upstairs. (sweatdrops). I really should organize them. O.O 1/4th of the bath? That IS huge! I haven't

seen a spider that big but I've seen bees that big and during the summer we get these daddy-long-legs-spiders, they're the

ones with small bodies but HUGE legs. They stand a couple inches off the ground.

Brolli: (eyes bug out at Clucky) o.O

Goku: YAY! FISH! (munches on it)

To Zack, the Sayajin: Ah, math. '.';; Heh, I've actually gotten a lot better at math recently thanks to my job. Fic 169 an

R rated fic? Wow...I have no idea what I would place in a fic to make it rated R aside from either a lemon or a really bloody

battle. Umm, I'll think about it. That is a long way away. (nods)

To Kitty Kyinsky: Hai, I missed the real Veggie so much! I'm glad to have him back! He's safe now that Brolli can't try to

ukefy him anymore.

To SSJGogetto: Yes he does. However "Chomp!" takes place at least a decade from the present time in the fic. "Chomp!",

"Nibble", and "To the Beach!" were all pretty much indicators that Brolli survived this battle.

To dakarne: Interesting, but Brolli wasn't actually killed so he couldn't be arrested by the Otherworld Police. You know I

should eventually have Grampa Gohan do something. (thinks)

To BlackDragonFury: Hee, you're welcome:D

Veggie: (happily nods) True, true.

To BlackDragonFury: That he is!

Goku: (chirps) Thank u for the hug!

To BlackDragonFury: Hope you like the battle! Actually I read Sand Land in the various issues of Shounen Jump. He reminded me

of Gotenks as well as Chibi Veggie :D And his father looked near-identical to Dabura, I think he had bigger horns though. Bye

To GokuGirl: It's sorta there. Glad you liked it!

To Kahlan Nightwing: YAY indeed, for this means I get to move on to the next fic! "Veggietine's Day 4!" :D Hai, there is a

lot of pressure about it and it was coming from all sides; Goku/Veggie, Veggie/Goku, and keep Goku and Veggie's relationship

platonic; so I tried to come to some kind of compromise, a little bit for everybody, and I'm happy with it. For instance

level 1 and 2 are there, but in different spots. Level 3 is sort of in the climax, but there wasn't any official declarations

of non-platonic luv and the kiss wasn't nearly as "romantic" as it was originally envisioned. Hai, it's important that

Veggie and Goku are happy, and they are. I hope you like how both the battle and reunion turned out.

To letgo: Hi! Aw, that's oh-kay. I'm still in disbelief about making it this far too. Heh, I have no idea what a Fic 200

would look like. Well, Veggie probably would've been a lot more paranoid, that's for sure. Before Turles he definately was

less afraid of getting closer to Goku because he all he had to worry about was non-platonicness and not his semehood being

challanged. I'm happy Turles stayed for that reason also. True, had Turles not appeared, and even with Goku finding out what

the saiyajin no oujo was, he definately would've been cemented into ukedom by now. Freaking Veggie out is a lot of fun :D

To ShiningMoon: So glad you liked it! Lol! Raditsu sweatdrops. Glad you liked him. Yup, and now they're back together! That

part was fun, with how unsuspecting Chi-Chi was that Videl is pregnant. Hai, that works. I like using the King and his

group. They'll find out what happened in the next fic. Surprisingly I'm off this Saturday, but I have to work tommorow

(Wednesday) and Friday. I actually did get up to the mall recently. They were out of regular pocky so I got the strawberry

kind. I think I'm going to try it tommorow. You see when I bought it I was still sick with that cold/flu/whatever I had so

I wanted to wait til I felt better so I could actually taste it. I've never seen banana pocky. Next time I get to Blockbuster

then. I did get a gift card at Christmas for 5 dollars there. Aw, thanks! I chose a odd sort of combo climax. :) That way

hopefully everybody will be happy at some level.

To JustSomeGuy: Yup! Veggie's birthday is the 30th of October which is also Mischief Night :D Hai, it does feel weird, but

don't worry, Veggie's back to normal now. Glad you like Turles! Hope you enjoy the them!

To Little-monkey-girl: Yup! The big battle was in this chapter! Yeah, Brolli's a confusing character. Glad you like the fic!

To PiccoloDiamao: Yup! The battle was long and I'm happy with it. :D It's not that often that I get to do a super-big battle,

so this was fun. Piccolo's in this chapter as well! And he has another oneshot coming up. :)

To SupersayiankingTommy: Thanks! Brolli was beaten very badly. He won't appear in the fics again for a while. Heh, Duu

absorbing them would solve both problems. I'll think about it, I do have Piccolo oneshot lined up sometime in the near

future. It's about his two month long temporary reign as ruler of Earth. :) Yup! He was beaten up and Veggie returned! Bye!

To Afrodite: Glad you liked it! Yeah, I especially had fun using Bejito because he's so much like his son. Piccolo Sr. might

make a future cameo, I dunno if he'll be in the upcoming oneshot or not.

To Afrodite: Aw, thank you! Heh, currently it's my longest fic. :)

To Afrodite: Hai. It's confusing, sometimes you don't know whether to feel sorry for him or be angry at him. Glad you liked

their apperances. What happens to the ghosts and V.2 will be found out in the next fic. Veggy however is going back to his

home. Bejito's so much fun!

To Afrodite: So glad you liked the chapter!

To Afrodite: Thanks! Happy you liked Turles! Heh, both Veggie and Bejito have that uke-phobia.

To RyukoVulpix: I was very undecided about the climax, but I'm happy with how it turned out. Veggie got his memories back

and Chi-Chi was excited about becoming a grandma :)

To Beronika: Aw, so sorry 'bout your computer! Heh, you have the same birthday as my sister. Mine's March 16th. (Is also a

pisces who has had past computer problems). I'm very careful with my computer now because of the problems it's had in the

past. Heh, I know this story was so many chapters! O.O Well, I should be getting back to the usual 3 to 4 chapters per fic

again once I start the next one. The comics are in their own universe, though some of my fics are translated versions of the

comics. Well, I can't give the specifics on fic-Brolli, but I can tell you he's going to stay alive but won't be around for

a while. You see in the comics I just had Brolli end up on Earth the way he ended up there in Movie 10, that's why Veggie

wasn't kidnapped and there was no super-big battle.

Brolli: Hn...(deep in thought)...if such a horrible thing were to be mandatory I would prefer Vejita be the seme, it's

better than letting KAKARROTTO dominate him with his disgusting mushiness and painful voice.

Vegeta: (sweatdrops) I'm, uh, flattered?

To Beronika: Aw, thanks! I did have a good birthday:)

To Nekoni: Hi!

Goku: HI!

Vegeta: (swetadrops) Hello.

To Nekoni: Heh, there were more mentions of Level 3 in this chapter as well. Yup! Glad you liked the brownie trail. Veggie's

definately better now that he's got his memory back and has been saved. The portara bond between Goku 'n Veggie is fun! Haha,

Veggie'd be pretty embarassed once he remembers it though. Glad you liked the sparring. Heh, the seme and uke type-3 saiyajin

appear in the comic I'm currently drawing as well. I'm glad they're on the ship too :D

Vegeta: (sweatdrops as he holds up a pair of said pants) Uh...

Goku: (pokes the pants Vegeta's holding) So small.

Vegeta: (pales, flushes red)

Goku: (holds up leash and collar) Does this mean I'm getting a dog?

Vegeta: WAH! (nearly falls over) No, Kakarrotto.

To Nekoni: Well, here it is :D

To Setsumi-san: So happy your computer is fixed! Glad you liked the corner. Lol! Poor Veggie, that would've been an

embarassing death. Well, you're free to interpret which one the heart-symbols meant. :) Hai, he is. Goku's so confused. So

glad you like the fic!

To Setsumi-san: Hee-, it's my 3rd cameo and also the longest of the three. :) Lol, interesting cheer. Veggie and the orange

was fun :D

Goku: Yay! More presents! (flicks Brolli voodoo doll in the arm)

Brolli: OWW! (glares at Goku and snatches doll away only to cry out in pain from squeezing himself too hard)

Goku: Heehee!

Vegeta: (looks down at ring) (shifts uneasily) Ah, lovely.

Piccolo: I have a knight now? (grins)

Chi-Chi: MMMPHMPH?

To Spot & Jenna: Hi! Ooh, arguements. Hiei is grumpy today. (sweatdrops). Heh, yeah Hiei did confuse me a couple times. It's

oh-kay. I'm sure they won't stay mad for too long. Sure I'll draw a request-doodle for you! I work Friday so maybe Saturday

I can have it finished and uploaded onto da.

To SacredGoggles: They have stayed as buddies. I really did try to fix it so everybody got a lil bit of what they wanted, so

while there was a smooch, they both freaked out afterword and I used a heart-symbol instead of specifying "luv" or "love".

Also whatever Goku and Veggie talked at the end of that scene was left in the dark, and Veggie's still talking about

platonicness, so...yup. Goku's not as confused as he was now. Glad you liked Turles logic!

To Chibi Tellers: Well, if it makes you feel any better, Brolli is alive. :) And he'll be back soon.

Brolli: (grins) I enjoyed that review!

Goku: (grumbles)
Vegeta: (laughs nervously)

To Chibi Tellers: Aw, I don't think Brolli'll be alone forever. Heh, a V.3. Interesting idea.

Brolli: (reads description of clone) ...I think I could live with that.
Vegeta: (sweatdrops) ...

Chuquita: And that's the end of Part 10 and Fic 100!

Vegeta: ▫WHEW▫!

Goku: Such a long trip...

Chuquita: (to audiance) Well I hope everybody enjoyed the Super-huge Super-long Fic 100:D And I hope what I came up with

was alright. Lots of pressure in figuring out what I was going to do.

Vegeta: (pats her on the shoulder) I'm sure its alright.

Chuquita: I hope so. (to audiance) See you sometime next week with "Veggietine's Day 4!"

Goku: Byebye!

Brolli: (lightly pokes Ouji Chan who's sitting on his lap) ?

Ouji Chan:D

Chuquita: (nervous laugh) I almost forgot about that!

Vegeta: So...Brolli's leaving now? (looks hopeful)

Chuquita: Yup!

Brolli: (gets up) The Vejita-like person has invited me for dinner! (smiles)

Vegeta: Umm, have fun?

Goku: (to Brolli) You can take your chair with you! Since you will not be coming back to the Corner soon!

Brolli: (sweatdrops) Kakarrotto. (grabs chair) Infact I think I will. (follows Ouji Chan through the exit)

Chuquita: (to Goku 'n Veggie) He asked in an e-mail about it.

Vegeta: Ah.

Goku: I am happy the Big Meanie is gone! (sits back in his chair) :)

Chuquita: (grins) See you next week:D
