Chapter 8: Tick-tock, tick-tock...


I need to get that chemical! Goten's life is at stake here! Its a good thing I know Bulma, or else I could never get this from capsule corp, Gohan thought to himself as he flew over a sea.

At capsule corporation's main building, Vegeta is reading a book titled "the laws of physics made simple," and he has another book sitting next to him to read when he's done titled "The detailed world of physics."

I've studied up on most of that biology stuff, now I've got to learn this physics--WHAT!? That doesn't make any sense...If gravity pulls on items from the Earth's core then how come bigger items are generally-- Vegeta's thoughts were interrupted by Bulma.

"Hey, you're getting to be a real nerd Vegeta! heh, but I'm glad you're thinking about more than just fighting, even if it is just to get better at it."

"Could you PLEASE leave me alone woman? I'm thinking...This book isn't making any sense...Bah! I haven't trained in the last 2 years just because I was reading! I'm like that twerp Gohan without Chi-chi causing it! I need to get air...I need to blast something! I need to TRAIN for the love of...That's it! I've got to let somea' this bundled up energy OUT of my body already or I'm gonna explode! AAAAAHHHH!!!" Vegeta became increasingly frustrated with the feeling of not using any energy for more than 2 whole years. He clutched a glass of water with his anger and it exploded right there.

"uuuhhh...Oops. Sorry. I'll be back in a second," Vegeta calmed himself. He walked out the back door (no pun intended) and into the giant garden that was inhabitted mostly by dinosaurs and cats. He blasted a flower with minimum energy, and it exploded at contact and the area around it caught on fire.

"Woah...I guess all that relaxing let some of my energy settle a little...I'm not really stronger, but it counts for a higher power level..." Vegeta explained to himself. Suddenly, Gohan flew into the building. Sensing the energy, Vegeta walked into the house.

"Bulma! I need a chemical (A hormone I think) that is able to slow down the cirdulatory system! No time to explain, or to spare with Vegeta! My brother's life is in danger!" Gohan exclaimed.

"Okay! I don't know what you're talking about but we have a special drug recently developped downstairs in the lab that can slow down the movement of blood and the heart rate," Bulma informed. Quikly, Gohan rushed down into the basement and saw a laboritory filled with strange inventions. He took a small vile off of a table. It was labled "circulatory depresent-for medical use only". Gohan quikly ran up the stairs and back to Bulma.

"Is this it?" He asked.

"Uuhhh...Yeah, that's the one," Bulma said, still having no idea what was going on. Gohan rushed out of the building and flew off.

"Well...Actually, I guess Goten doesn't really need this so fast...I can at least say hi, I mean I barely ever come her," Gohan convinced himself.

"Hey, does this have anything to do with Chi-chi's call saying that Goten couldn't come over?" Bulma asked.

"Well yeah. But hey, maybe I can bring Trunks with me to see Goten!" Gohan suggested.

"Yeah, great idea! Hey Trunks! Come out, Goten's brother Gohan is here!" Bulma called.

"I told you, I don't want to meet Goten! Or his brother! I already have enough friends, you just don't know them!" Trunks protested.

"So what? Now you'll have one more friend! Two more friends! Gohan and his friends have saved the world more than once kiddo, so show some respect! Sorry Gohan, he's a little shy," Bulma explained.

"That's okay, most kids are at his age! I know I wasn't though. I remember like it was yesterday. Piccollo and the others had cured my shyness by the time I was six years old. That was about the age when we went to Namek, remeber?" Gohan conversed.

"Hhhmm...Oh yeah! You're right, I think you were about 6 years old, but we were there for so long that ou aged a little, and you got a lot stronger!" Bulma replied.

"Sooo...Gohan, do you think maybe we could have a sparing match some time? I've been studying up on those subjects that you suggested. And I think I've started to understand all about how to control my ki, and maybe I'll be a bit of a challenge even in your transformation. I can increase the energy quite a bit! But, I'm sorry to say, not to the level of transformation," Vegeta informed.

"Okay, but I'd have to make sure my mom wasn't around! Ha! She would kill me AND you if she found out I was sparing!" Gohan joked.

"Heh..." Vegeta was suddenly becoming more human than Saiyan. He was having a conversation in his home. He was forgetting all about fighting and about the Saiyan race or that he was a prince. He had changed from a siginficant character in the course of the universe to an ordanary care-free meer mortal.

"Alright, I'm here already! So is this the guy?" Trunks asked as he entered the room.

"Yep! Trunks, meet Gohan," Bulma answered.

"Okay, now whaddabout this Goten guy?" Trunks questioned yet again.

"Well he has a little problem, but this here in my hand is going to fix it! We're going to the hospital to give it to him," Gohan answered.

"Now jump on my back and I'll fly you there!" Gohan axplained.

"Wha--Fly? My dad never lets me jump on his back when he flies! He says it would disturb his concentration," Trunks was suddenly more glad to meet Gohan.

"Well if you want, I can teach you how to fly yourself!" Gohan suggested.

"Wow, really?" Trunks was overflowing with joy.

"No, not really. I'll teach you how to fly and much more when you get back. Its my job, I am your dad afterall," Vegeta informed.

"Alright! So what are we waiting for? Let's go see Goten!" Trunks was excited. Bulma smiled.

"Okay! Come on, jump on my back," Gohan instructed. Trunks did so and Gohan took off.

"See ya Bulma, bye Vegeta!" Gohan said as he flew away.

Back at the hospital, Gohan and Trunks flew in through the window.

"I see you're back. Did you get the medication?" the Doctor asked.

"Yep! Come on, let's give this to Goten!" Gohan suggested. They gave him the antidote, while he was sweating and panting. Slowly, he calmed down and fell asleep.

So Goten is all better now. But will Vegeta keep his promise to Trunks and teach him how to fly? And what of Gohan and Vegeta's sparing match, which may be delayed for a pretty long time if Vegeta is training Trunks. This is all simple life for the Earth's special forces, but what else may come in the next chapter? Log on and find out!
