(Annoying scratchy Ginyu voice) Last time on Dragonball Z....Goku and Vegeta, reluctantly, decided to add a new one to their great big happy family. No not a baby, a pet. But unfortunately, the two saiyans couldn’t chose between a cat...or a dog. So to end the dispute, Goku and Vegeta each took home a pet, but what will become of the fantastic four? Find out in today’s exciting episode of Dragonball Z!!!!

 

“Kakarroto!” an angry saiyan prince shouted at the top of his lungs. “Just LOOK at what that mangy mongrel did to my new shoes!” Vegeta marched to Goku who was sitting at the table eating a sandwich and held a pair of tattered white boots filled with holes and saliva stains. “This is the fourth pair this week! That damn dog has got to go!” he shouted.

 

Goku didn’t even look up to acknowledge Vegeta, calmly sipping his cup of grape juice. “Oh? Why don’t you go take a gander at the couch out there? I’m sure Kutaro planned on redecorating my new sofa with slash marks.” Vegeta raised an eyebrow and gritted his teeth in annoyance. 

 

He threw his shoes on the tile kitchen floor roughly. “I swear Kakarrot. You and that dog are going to be the death of me.” He stormed out of the room in a fury.  Goku merely shook his head.  Later that day, Vegeta and Goku sat on the sofa that had been skillfully taped up, doing the favorite American pass-time. No, not sex...ok well then America’s second favorite pass-time, watching TV. Each had their favored pet curled up in their laps.  Goku smiled as he scratched Bill, the name of the dog, behind the ears. Bill panted happily and smiled back at his owner with bright brown eyes. 

 

On the opposite side, Vegeta and Kutaro played like the old-fashion scene with the god-father. All four sat in silence, their vision fixed on the elaborate screen in front of them. Though the two saiyans seemed intrigued with the television program, both we’re thinking of reasons to get the other to yield his pet. At last, Vegeta spoke up. “Listen Kakarrot, this is childish. I don’t see why you have to drag this out.”

 

Goku breathed loudly through his nose and turned towards his mate. “Vegeta what are you talking about? We’re both even on this whole pet thing. And if anything, you need to take the cat back.”  Vegeta growled in protest. 

 

“Iie Kakarroto. I refuse to take my cat back.” he replied.

 

“And why do you say that?” Goku massaged Bill between the shoulder blades. 

 

Vegeta snorted. “Well that’s obvious. Cats are basically better than dogs.” the kitten in the saiyan prince’s lap purred. “They eat about half as much as a mutt, they’re quiet, clean, they can catch mice, they don’t sharpen their teeth on new shoes, they do their business in one place and on my planet, they don’t knock you down when you come to the door, and they were considered a symbol or royalty.” Goku rolled his eyes from the ‘regal talk.’

 

“Oh whatever. Dogs beat cats out by a million miles. Dogs are much more active than a stupid ole cat. They greet you at the door, they fetch the paper and your slippers, they’re always ready to comfort you when you feel bad. Dogs are big and strong and don’t leave hairballs everywhere. They don’t think they’re better than everything else in this world, and they don’t get stuck up in trees or sharpen their claws on the furniture.” 

 

Vegeta glared at his mate for a few seconds before sharply turning his head back to watch TV. Suddenly, the telephone rang. Returning to his cheerful state, Goku hoped out of his seat, Bill jumping down on the floor from his lap, and went to answer the phone. “Hello? ...Hey! I’m fine, you? Great. Yeah? Sure, that’d be awesome. Later on tonight?” Goku paused to look over warily at the saiyan prince who was half paying attention the phone conversation.  “Uh, sure. He’d love to.” Vegeta immediately looked over at Goku alarmed, knowing a decision concerning him had just been finalized. “Ok. Bye.” He hung up the receiver.

 

“Kakarroto, what have you signed my name to now?” Vegeta narrowed his eyes along with Kutaro, both seemed linked to each other.

 

Goku smiled nervously and blushed. “Well Veggie-cha...” he scratched the back of his head. Bill panted and wagged his tail energetically. “You see, Gohan, Trunks and Goten want to have...ya know, a lil get-together. Over here, later on tonight.” Vegeta almost exploded into a rage but Goku cut him off. “Look Vegeta, before you bust a fuse, just think it over. We haven’t seen Trunks and Goten in a while, nor Gohan, they just want to have a boys’ night out. And it’s only for a few hours, it’s not like they’re staying forever. And we can show off the new members of the family.” he referred to the new pets of the household.

 

Vegeta sighed knowing Goku had beaten him. “Fine Kakarrot....But if any one of them try and mess with Kutaro, they’ll regret it ten-fold.” Goku chuckled as he left the room to freshen up for the party.

 

~~~

 

“Ding-dong.” The doorbell rang. Upon opening the door, Goku found three demi-saiyans smiling, each holding a contribution for the shindig. “Hey fellas.  How’s it goin?” Goku greeted as he stood aside allowing the guests to enter the house. 

 

They all sat at a large round table in the kitchen, each teen displaying what he had brought. Goten went first. He hoisted a giant cooler of six-pack sets onto the table. “What’s a good party without beer?” they all cheered.  Trunks went next.

 

“Music always makes a party great.” he grinned as he set two stacks of CD’s in front of him. The four men ooh’ed and ah’ed. 

 

Gohan unveiled his treasure last. “Well, it’s not alot to hoot and holler over. But I thought a fun game of Twister would be fun.” They all applauded, praising Gohan for his good taste.  Vegeta sat nearby in the living room, listening disdainfully.   

 

Petting Kutaro between the ears he growled between his teeth. “Just listen to those buffoons. Getting hyper over a bunch of nonsense.” Kutaro purred, twitching his ears under Vegeta’s fingers. “I feel ashamed knowing they have saiyan blood.” He glanced down upon the pet cat. “At least I’m not the only one in this house with an IQ lower than 60.”

 

Trunks laughed heartily as he sipped from a can of beer. Feeling small paws trample casually over his tennis shoes. “What the hell--?” he nearly choked as he bent his neck down to look under the table. Without warning, a sloppy tongue licked Trunks on the cheek and scrambled from under the table. “Hey, Hey! Goten come from under the table. Save that for later.”

 

Goten tilted his head. “What are you talkin’ about, koi? I’m not under the table.” Trunks peered over to see Goku laughing at the two while petting a dog on its back. “Goku-sa, since when did you have a dog?”  

 

Goku scratched the back of his head. “Since uh, yesterday.  His name’s Bill.” Bill rolled on his back exposing his belly, which Goku happily rubbed. 

 

 

Gohan coughed  noticeably.  “Is...you-know-who ok with having a dog?” Gohan jerked his head in the direction of the living room. Goku smiled.

 

“No, but he has a pet of his own. We both agreed that he could keep a cat if I got to keep Bill.” The three demi-saiyans went bug eyed.

 

“A-A cat??” they all stuttered.

 

“Yes a cat!” came a gruff response from the living room. “And if you have a problem with, I suggest you come see me about it right now!” Gulping, Trunks, Goten and Gohan remained quiet and uncomplaining in the kitchen.

 

“WELL!” Goku broke the silent tension, slapping his hands together heartily. “How bout we get this party started?” the other smiled and followed in suit.

The three laughed aloud as heavy metal sounds of Shocore blared from the ultimate sound system. “Left hand blue!” Gohan shouted as the Goku, Trunks, and Goten all tried to obey the command, each struggling to place their left hand on a blue circle.  Vegeta sat on the other end of the couching, trying his best to ignore the ruckus going on about him.

 

“I’m surrounded by idiots.” the prince grumbled while massaging his temples with his index fingers. Kutaro rolled his lazy yellow eyes and yawned, his small white fangs sparkling. “Come on Kutaro, I’m going to get a drink...” Vegeta began to stand but Gohan stopped him.

 

“Yo Vegeta, don’t bother gettin up to go to the kitchen...” he tossed the prince of all saiyans a bottle of beer.  Catching it with ease, Vegeta glared at the gold-colored glass bottle before reluctantly opening the top and sipping the bittersweet liquid. Returning to the game, Gohan spun the spinner. “Right foot yellow.” Goku, Goten, and Trunks groaned in disappointment, Trunks calling out for a re-spin. “Nuh uh Trunks, you gotta do as I tell ya or you’re out.” He grumbled as he tried desperately but failed and fell flat on his bottom. 

 

Goten laughed. “One down, one to go.” 

 

“And it looks like you’re that one Goten.” Goku challenged. “Get him Bill.” On cue, Bill leapt over the couch and pounced on Goten, knocking him off balance and pushing him down on the floor. Goku crowed in victory and Bill barked.

 

“Hey no fair! You can’t have a helper.” Goten whined playfully. Bill licked Goten on the cheek apologetically. “Aw, you’re just like dad you big mutt.” He scratched the puppy behind the ears. 

Trunks chuckled and pet the dog on the back.  Gohan smiled and pet the dog as well.

 

Kutaro, seeing as how Bill was getting more attention than he was, grew agitated and pounced Bill, hissing fiercely. Vegeta smirked, seeing himself as the cat and Goku as the dog. “Hey, hey, hey!” Goku cried as he broke up the fight. He pulled Kutaro off of Bill who was growling and crouched, ready to attack if he needed to again. “Bad cat!” Goku scorned. “Just because no one likes you doesn’t mean you can go rain on someone else’s parade.” he grinned knowing Vegeta should be coming to defend his precious Kutaro.

 

And like he predicted, it happened. “Now just one minute Kakarroto. How dare you touch Kutaro?! And speak to him in such a manner you shall not.” Pulling the mischievous kitten from Goku’s hands, Vegeta smoothed the ruffled fur on Kutaro’s back. “There there Kutaro. You needn’t bother yourself with such trifles.” he moved his unwavering gaze to Goku and the three demi-saiyans. As he began to storm off, Goku caught him.

 

“Where are you going? Don’t you want to stay for the party?” Vegeta let out a quick ‘hmph’ before starting for the stairs.  “Aw, so you’re to mad to participate with us? Fine then, be a little cry baby and run upstairs.” Vegeta stopped, but he didn’t turn around. Goku smirked, knowing he’d struck a nerve. “And I was hoping I could challenge you tonight in a simple game of Twister...BUT, if you want to stay out of the group all night I understand.” Vegeta turned around slowly to face the other saiyan, eye to eye. “So what’s it gonna be Vegeta...?”

 

Vegeta glanced to the twister mat laying wrinkled on the floor, and then to the flight of stairs that lead to safety. He glared at Goku and then grinned his most wicked grin...right before dashing upstairs.

 

“Hey!” Goku ran up after him. “You big chicken.” He grabbed a hold of the prince’s ankle and pulled him down to the first floor. “Nah ah Veggie-chan, you gotta stay down here and play.” Vegeta sighed exasperatedly and stomped down the stairway.

The competition had heated up to the 3rd degree and Trunks and Gohan had already fallen on the mat. The tootsie roll booming from the stereo.  Both saiyans were contorted into mind-bending positions. “Left hand Green.” Goten instructed, Goku and Vegeta both easily accomplishing the task. Kutaro and Bill on the sidelines rooting for their masters. Kutaro, getting a cat-like sneer upon his face snuck around past Bill and Goku’s sights, holding up an open paw, five tiny retractable claws unfurled themselves like the contents of a pocketknife. He snickered mentally and sank the small nails into Goku’s rear, causing him to jump up and nearly lose his balance.

 

“Ouch, what in Kami was that?”  Gohan laughed as he drug a grey kitten from underneath Goku by the scruff of his neck. “Kutaro, that was dirty play.” Vegeta chuckled.

 

“I recall a certain mongrel helping you win the game between you and Goten, Kakarroto...” Goku blushed.

Both men moved to respond to a call that had been made from the spinner.

 

Bill crept past Goku and around Vegeta. Licking his canines  he moved under Vegeta’s behind and...

“OW! What the hell--?!” Now it was Trunks’s turn to drag a pet from under a player. “Kakarroto that dog could have rabies!” Goku laughed.

 

“Fair is fair, Vegeta. Now we’re even.” Goku rolled over to put his right hand on a red circle. Vegeta did likewise. Kutaro, seeing his chance crouched down behind Vegeta, his tail waving to and fro, waiting...waiting.  Meanwhile, Bill ducked down low, awaiting his chance to attack.  Then, with out warning, they struck. Simultaneously, Kutaro and Bill sprang into the air, however, they didn’t expect the other to do the same and ended up crashing into one another in mid-air...and then down on the players below. Vegeta and Goku came tumbling down onto the multi-colored mat with Kutaro and Bill on top. 

 

Trunks, Gohan, and Goten rolled around on the floor laughing and holding their sides. “Tousan, that was hilarious, you should’ve seen the look on your face.” Trunks managed to say through the mirth. The prince murmured curses as he pulled himself to his feet.

 

“Damned game...I knew I should’ve--” he was caught short as two strong arms wrapped around him from behind. He sighed defeated. “Damn you and that dumb dog Kakarroto.” He leaned up to nuzzle the younger saiyan’s neck.

 

Gohan, Trunks, and Goten looked on with soft eyes and aw’ed at the cute sight. Kutaro and Bill looked upon the masters perplexed. Then Gohan explained to the animals, “If those two...the most different type of people imaginable, can get along...I’m sure a cat and a dog can.” he smiled as the cat and the dog looked at each other not with anger or rivalrism, but with a tolerable look saying  ‘I’ll trust you if you trust me.’ And they became friends. Goten nodded.  “I wouldn’t be surprised if the cat and the dog started makin’ out...” Trunks laughed.

 

“Speakin of makin out...I think it’s time we be going.” Trunks declared as he stood up. “Come on Goten...” The purple-haired teen grinned evilly. Gohan also decided it was getting late and stood to head for the door. Goku smiled and escorted the three guests to the door along with Bill.

 

~~~~~

 

Vegeta finished brushing his teeth and spat the remains in to the sink. Stretching casually he climbed into the bed next to Goku who was busy reading a novel. He purred, sliding his arms around the bigger man’s waist. “Not tonight Vegeta, we have little ones in here.” Goku said as he put the book away.

 

“Who?” The prince growled angrily. Bill hopped up on the bed and Kutaro pounced down from a dresser above, each curling up at the end of the bed. “....” Vegeta pulled the covers over his head and turned to face a wall. But he smirked as the lights went out and a warm body pressed against him. “G’Nite Kakarroto...” he mumbled. A lick to the cheek. “Gr....Goodnight Bill....Nite Kutaro, rest well.” 

 

“Good night Bill. Sleep well Kutaro...” Goku leaned up to kiss Vegeta on the forehead. “Good night Vegeta. Sweet dreams...” and they all fell asleep.
