Revenge of the Babysat

Part 2

Vegita took off, darting as fast as his little legs could carry him, sprinting towards Trunks. The little purple haired halfling jumped to the side, but Vegita altered his course at the last instant. He pivoted on one leg and jolted off up the tree Goten was perched in.

The little Goku look-alike yelped when he noticed he was the target and jumped from the tree. Unfortunatly for him, he snagged his foot on a limb on the way down, landing on his face with his body falling rapidly behind him. He lay on his back momentarily stunned.

Taking advantage of the situation, Vegita leaped from the branch he was on, hollering, "Ha HA! Victory is MINE!," and landed squarly on Goten's chest, taging him repeatedly.

"Owowowow! You only tag ONCE," Goten howled, rolling out fromVegita's flailing, tagging hands.

"No, I tag LOTSA times, can't you tell?" Vegita grinned.

"Rrrr, alright, if that's how yer gonna play it........" Goten lunged for Vegita, but the little Saiyan Prince was already running pel-mel off down the side of a small river, sprinting like his life depended on it. Goten took off after him, giving off a wild war cry and laughing maniacly, arms waving wildly in the air.

Looking back over his shoulder, Vegita saw his pursuer gaining rapidly. Doing the first plot that went through his head, he kicked up the sand under his little feet and creating a dust cloud.

"Ah, my eye!" Goten whined when the sand flew into his face. Vegita's devous laughter vanished as the Saiyan Prince went into hiding.

Shrugging, Goten turned to go after Trunks and Gohan, jogging and smiling and all around having a good time.

"Where are they, now?" the boy wondered, looking left and right for signs of his prey. He saw Bardock and Turles. No Gohan. He saw Nappa and Radditz (with Marron still firmly attached to his leg) but not Trunks. They were right here when he ran after Vegita, where could they be now........... Goten didn't try to feel their chi. That would be cheating, after all. But where......

"Boo!!" Trunks yelled, popping out of a hole Goten hadn't seem before no more that ten feet away.

"Gotcha now!" Goten hollered, taking a few running steps for Trunks.

"Boo!!" Gohan shouted, hopping out from behind a tree behind Goten, fifteen feet away.

"Rrr! Who do I get?!" Goten crowed angrily, and finally decided that Trunks was asking for it.

"Waa!" Trunks wailed as Goten pounced for him, he leaped away at the last possible moment, leaving Goten to go sprawling across the grass. He didn't pause as he leaped to his feet and persued Trunks through a winding course through the trees. Darting, shrieking, taunting, threatening, the two boys finally broke into another clearing.

Getting desperate, Trunks looked around for a base. Just his luck! Nappa was close by! Adding power to his strides, Trunks sped wildly out of control toward the hairless giant, who had yet to even notice that he was soon going to be used.

"GANG WAY!!" Trunks shouted and all out leaped into Nappa, sending them both sprawling across the grass, ending with Trunks sitting on Nappa's back and both stunned.

"Aww!" Goten whined, "Get offa 'im! I don't wanna be it, I woulda had you!"

"No puppy guarding!" Trunks hollered, gripping tightly to Nappa's arm as the Saiyan was only now registering what had happened to him.

"I don't think I wanna be base anymore.....," Nappa grumble, rubbing his back, "I didn't think it would be this painful......"

"Quite complaining!" Trunks said, poking him in the arm, "You didn't have to run for your life just now!"

Nappa said nothing, but gritted his teeth as he silently suffered.

Goten stuck out his bottom lip and started pacing back and forth infront of Trunks, with Nappa laying camatose on the ground, moaning about hi back.

"I said NO PUPPY GUARDIN'!" Trunks whined, looking for a way to get around the frustrated little warrior.

"I'm NOT! C'mon, git offa' him!" Goten said, sitting down and glaring.

"Nuh uh!" Trunks said, cringing closer to Nappa who only groaned further.

"Git off, git off, git off, GIT OFF!!" Goten howled, pounding the grass harder with each word. The ground started to rumble.

"No, no, no, NO!" Trunks replied, gripping even closer to his base.

"Ow, ow, ow, OW!" came Nappa's response.

"NOW!!" Goten cried, pounding the ground so hard that it split under his feet, cracking and shaking and feeling all around unstable.

"Okay, eesh, Goten...........," Trunks grumbled, and hoped off of Nappa and took off for the trees again.

"Whew.........," Nappa murmered.

"Raaaaaaaaaa!!!" Goten took off after Trunks. The purple haired kid looked over his shoulder and saw that Goten was just feet away. And gaining............

But when he looked ahead again, Trunks saw that he was approaching a rather large tree, and a sinister idea came to him. He sped up, Goten speeding up right behind him. Trunks could feel his breath on the back of his neck when.........

Inches away from running smack into the tree, Trunks jumped up and backwards, landing right behind Goten. The smaller warrior, going to fast to control his movements couldn't stop fast enough. Goteh ran right into the tree, cracking the thick trunk and falling flat on his back.

"Owee........"

"PWahahahahah!" Trunks laughed, one hand wraped under his ribs and the other pointing at Goten's plight.

*creak........*

The tree trunk started to give out, and the whole massive thing started to fall.

"Uh, oh.........," Trunks barely had time to say before the whole damn thing came crashing down on his head with a huge CRASH.

"Serves 'im right....," Nappa said, having witnessed the whole thing.

Gohan came sprinting up, looking at the damage, "What happened? Where are the kids?"

"Under there," Nappa pointed.

"I said NOT to tear up the landscape!" Gohan yelled into the newly grounded foliage.

Moans could be heard under the leaves, but as to whether they were of pain or in response to Gohan's words were irrevolent. Both kids came storming out.

"Just for THAT, nichan........," Goten said, "Me an' Trunks are BOTH it."

"Can they do that?" Vegita asked as he came out from hiding.

"Um........I guess," Gohan said, rubbing the back of his head.

"Then I wanna be it, too!" Vegita cheered, little balled fists raised, "Lemme be it too!! C'mon guys! Ya' gotta!"

Goten and Trunks exchanged glances then shrugged, "Sure. All three of us will be it."

"Um........who's that leave to..........be.......," Gohan slowl realized that he was the only person NOT it, "Um.....eheh......maybe they CAN'T do that.......um....."

"Three aganist one, Gohan," Trunks's grin rivaled his father's.

"Majority rules," Vegita matched Trunks's grin.

"Heh heh heh.........," Goten said.

"Eep.........," Gohan said and turned to run for his life.

"Git im!!!" Vegita yelled and all three little warriors ran off after him, hooting and hollering in every respect like an angry lynch mob.

"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!" Gohan sprinted away, past Radditz.

"What's going on-" the long haired Saiyan tried to say, but was run over by three over vicious kids.

Gohan ran on, passing Turles.

"Where are you going?-" Turles tried to say, but was sent flying as he was shoved out of the way of the revenge crazed behemoths.

Gohan reeled wildly past Bardock, who stepped out the way before the kids could victimize him. He was a smart one, hm?

Goten and Trunks burst into SuperSaiyan and pounced at the same time.

"TAG!!" they both gleefully proclaimed, both slamming agenst Gohan's back and knocking him over. Both kids quickly de-transformed before Gohan noticed HOW they caught up with him.

The kids quickly pressed their new found ground of supremecy and started in wildly tagging.

"Tag tag tag!!" Trunks crowed.

"Tag tag tag!!" Goten squeeled.

"Tag tag tag!!" Vegita exclaimed.

"Waaaaa, ow ow ow!!" Gohan yelped, trying to ward off the wild and frenzied kids, but there was no escape! Kids everywhere!! Everywhere he tried to crawl, there they were! Rolling, squirming, bucking, they were all over him........TAGGING! OH, ALL THE TAGGING!! NON STOP!!

"YOU WIN!! YOU WIN!! I GIVE!! OKAY! JUST STOP WITH THE TAGGING!! PLEASE!"

The three boys backed off. Gohan spread out his limbs and gasped for breath.

"We win!!" Goten hollered, jumping up and down.

"We rule!!" Trunks agreed.

"Only the best for THIS Prince," Vegita stated, "I never lose!"

Once the exuberance had died down, and the other Saiyans appeared at the scene of the crime, the kids began to grow bored...........and hungry.

"What did you DO to him?" Radditz asked, walking a full circle around his limp nephew.

"Tagged 'im!" Goten said, then poked Gohan in the arm, "Can we have money for ice-cream?"

Gohan half rolled over and said, "My wallets in my pocket, just leave enough for life insurance..........ow ow ow......."

"Woohoo!" Goten said and fished out Gohan's wallet.

"Let's go!" Trunks said, and all three boys shot off to find the Ice-cream man.

They soon returned, their faces covered in chocolate, raspberry, vanilla, and other various ice-cream flavors ground into each of their faces. In each of their hands they carried more of it. The looked like walking ice-cream kids.

Goten put Gohan's wallet back into his pocket and said, "We didn't know how much life insurance was, so we spent it all. Is that okay?"

"What-ever...........," Gohan whimpered.

"That was fun!!" Vegita hooted, "Lets do it again, really soon!"

"Yeah!" the other two kids agreed.

"NO!!" Gohan shouted.

The End
