Title: Surprise, SurpriseAuthor: GW KatrinaBetas: Veggie Otaku and Mom(if somethings wrong, it'smy fault)Disclaimer: Don't own themArchive: Anywhere, just tell me. Surprise, Surprise /Why am *I* the only one who can do these damn tests./ With a sigh, Trunks laid his head on the table. He knew why. Raised to one day take over the company, Trunks was the only one who was trained to do this stuff. "Long day?" a soft voice asked as hands began to massage Trunks's shoulders. Rumbling deep in his chest, the pale-haired youth leaned into his mate's hands. "A very long day." Blue eyes opened. "But I found something interesting." Picking up one of the reports, Trunks handed it to Goten. The other man stopped the massage to take the paper. Goten had learned to read the stupid things since Trunks was always bringing reports to their room. His eyes widened as he saw what the paper in his hand said. "Oh, wow!" Trunks rolled his eyes with a smile. "'Oh, wow!' is all you can say?" His tone was laced with tired humor. Dropping a kiss on the purple hair, Goten also smiled. "Sorry. I mean 'Oh, wow, you incredibly sexy man!' Better?" "Much," snickered Trunks, stealing a kiss. "That's Pan's report in your talented hands. I haven't had a chance to look at the others yet." He popped his neck. The warm body at his back left for just a few seconds, then Goten pulled a chair up next to Trunks and sat down. A soft, dark tail wrapped gently around a pale purple one. "Come on, lover, let's get started." Goten caught Trunks's look. "Hey, you expect me to understand Pan's, besides, you've brought plenty of these home before." Goten gave his lover a dirty look. "I'm not stupid, no matter what you think." "I know you're not stupid," Trunks protested, catching Goten's hand. Dropping a kiss in the palm, he met Goten's black eyes. "Forgive me?" "Baka," sighed Goten, leaning forward and giving Trunks a kiss. "Always. Unless you run off with Gohan, that is." Both of them laughed, then began going through the data. *** After several hours of looking at and comparing old and new information, Goten rubbed his eyes. Grabbing the soda next to him, the young man took a deep drink. Then he looked at the hormone levels again. "This can't be right," he muttered. Standing, Goten streched, his back popping. "Ahh...." he sighed, feeling good now that he was moving. Taking a look around, Goten saw that Trunks wasn't back yet. A smile crossed his face as he went to find his mate. It only took a few minutes for him to find Trunks. The purple-haired man was in the kitchen, eating some ice cream with red drizzled over it. "You know, we *can* eat things normally," Goten said with a chuckle, stealing a kiss as he moved past his lover. Covering his bowl to keep someone's sneaky fingers out, Trunks shrugged. "I know. It's a good thing too, because with our appetites, we would kill everyone in just a few months. Besides, everything just tastes better when it has blood on it." He paused to eat another spoonful. "Mmmm, chocolate and blood. Yummy." Goten chuckled. A sleepy Trunks was a cute Trunks. He just got so goofy it was adorable. Grabbing the stuff he needed, Goten quickly fixed himself a bowl and sat next to Trunks. Their tails twined automatically. "I will say this," Goten started, sounding muffled until he swallowed his mouthful of ice cream. "I would have missed normal food." He ate some more. "Well," said Trunks, still eating his bowlful. "It's a good theory that the reason we needed so much blood that night was to replace what we lost. Still," he ran his finger along his ice cream. Raising his hand, he looked at the bright red trailing down his finger. "Blood is good." He put his finger in his mouth. Goten moaned as the bloody finger emerged, sucked clean. "Don't tease," he said, waving his spoon at his lover. Trunks just smiled at him. Quietly, the pair finished their snack. Rinsing their dishes, Goten streched again. "What time is it, anyway?" Trunks looked at the clock. "Two in the morning," he told Goten. "Seems like a lot later." "Oh, by the way," Goten started. He remembered the odd report. "There's something I want you to look at." With a sigh, Trunks also streched. "All right, back to work we go." They headed back to the lab office. *** It had been a full morning for Vegeta and Goku. They had woke up, mated, sparred, mated, showered, mated in the shower, showered some more, and now were in the kitchen eating. As the smell of food filled the air, the others in the household made their way to the source. Upon seeing the mountain of food(delivered, of course) they joined their parents in demolishing it. The last to join the group were Goten and Trunks, who staggered in from the direction of the lab. Seeing the food, they attacked it, surprising the others with their hunger. Once the table was clear, everyone stayed in their chairs, enjoying the memory of the huge feast. Then Goten stood up and left the room. Trunks stayed in his seat, looking like the cat who ate the canary. Before anyone else could think about moving, Goten was back with a stack of folders, which he handed to Trunks. Taking them, he quickly flipped through the files and pulled out the one labeled 'Pan.' With their sharp eyes, the others at the table could also read it. "You won't believe what I found on this report." Trunks stated, his face serious. "What? Is Pan all right?" Goku and Gohan were on their feet, moving towards Trunks. Bra and Pan shared a fearful look. Vegeta stayed where he was. He knew that he wouldn't understand what the paper said until his son explained it. "All right," Trunks started, looking at the others. "You know how Mom was tracking how saiyan and human genes mixed, right?" Everyone nodded. "Well this," the young man pointed to a line. "This is Pan's test results from the last test Mom did. Human genes are blue, saiyan genes red." The line was mostly a deep purple, with several solid blue spots, and a few red ones. Now Trunks pointed to the next line. "Right here is the results of the test I did." A moment of silence, then everyone besides Goten looked at him blankly. Trunks groaned and let his head hit the table. "Duh, you guys, look at the code." Blank looks shifted from Trunks to Goten. Goku's second son rolled his eyes. "Every single gene is saiyan. Totally red. Pan, from a genetic standpoint, is a full-blooded saiyan. She's no more human than Vegeta or Dad." Now the blank stares turned to surprise. "She's a saiyan? A real saiyan?" Gohan was the first to speak. "She's not the only one." Lifting his head to look at his family, Trunks continued. "Everyone who used to have human genes no longer does. Well," he corrected himself. "Bra and I still have our hair and eye color, but they show as saiyan." Suddenly, blue eyes locked on Vegeta. "Dad, can I ask you a question?" Still stunned by the news, Vegeta looked slightly gapejaw at his son. "What is it, Brat?" "Why didn't you tell us that saiyan males could bear children?" "It's common knowledge. A majority of saiyan males are able to bear children. With so few females, it was the only way for our race to survive. Besides, the blending of human and saiyan blood removed that trait." A wary look crossed his face. "Didn't it?" Trunks and Goten exchanged looks. "Well," Trunks looked everywhere except his father. "We're not part human anymore. We're full saiyans. The tests Goten and I looked at also contained hormone tests. Congratulations, Dad, Goku. You're going to be grandpas." The news snapped everyone out of their shock, just to slap them in the face with more reality twists. "Gra....Grandpas?" stammered Goku. Vegeta just stared. Gohan, Bra, and Pan all struggled not to laugh at them. The two young men nodded. "I'm pregnant. About three weeks along. Goten noticed something odd on my hormone report. I looked at them, we redid the test. They matched up." Trunks looked at his dad. "How long are saiyan pregnancies?" Staring at the table as if he could see his son's stomach, Vegeta figured it up. "About six months by this planet's time," he said. Then he passed out. Looking at the fallen man, Goku smirked openly. "I think you two just did the impossible. You took down Vegeta without a single strike." He crouched down and picked up the smaller man. "I'm going to take him upstairs, then I'm going to pick up some more food." Goku vanished, Vegeta in his arms. Everyone who still sat around the table burst into laughter. Gohan slouched onto the table, too weak with laughter to stay up. Bra and Pan fell out of their chairs, giggling hard. Goten and Trunks leaned against each other, chuckling weakly as their air ran out. Once everyone had regained control, Bra slipped over to her big brother. Tugging at Trunks's shirt, she looked deep into his blue eyes. "I'm gonna be an aunt?" Smiling at his little sister, Trunks nodded. "Yes, Bra. You're going to be an aunt." "And you'll be a cousin," Gohan told Pan. "I'm going to be an uncle." He blinked, and an evil grin crossed his face. Looking at Trunks and Goten, Gohan smirked. "Oh, you two are going to hate me. I am SO going to pay you back for how much you spoiled my kid. Your kid is going to be spoiled rotten." Two pairs of eyes, one blue, one black, looked at Gohan in surprise. "Man, Gohan, you got mean when we changed." That statement reminded Gohan of the reason for all the tests. "You find out what caused..." He paused, unsure on how to word it. "This?" A tail wave. Trunks nodded. "We were right. It had something to do with that night. Whatever caused those lights and the sky to turn red did this to us. It triggered our saiyan genes to, well...." "Eat our human ones," supplied Goten. Gohan stared at them. "Eat?" He wanted to be sure. Goten and Trunks nodded. "Radiation of some type. It only affected those with saiyan blood. We think it might have affected Dad and Goku also." Serious eyes looked at the others. "I was going to ask Dad what the ancient saiyans were like. I mean, he acts all possessive, and Goku seems more, um, vicious." Nodding slowly, Gohan his mind struggled to accept it. Were they really full saiyans, or were they some type of mutant? If they were saiyans, why were they turning into ancient ones, if they were? His thoughts were broken by two huge yawns. Gohan focused on the source, and saw that Trunks and Goten were leaning against each other, eyes barely open. Bra and Pan had vanished, and Gohan felt slightly guilty. Both Goten and Trunks had stayed up all night to do this, and were not even given a 'thank you' for thier troubles. Rising to his feet, Gohan moved to the pair. "Come on you two, time for you to crash." "No crash," muttered Goten. "Hitting the ground hurts." "Ouchy. Ground hard," added Trunks. A full-fledged Son smile on his face, Gohan herded the younger men to their room, making sure they made it to the bed before they actually did hit the ground. Once they were on the bed, the couple curled up around each other. Pulling a sheet over them, Gohan said, "Thank you." He left the room, and on the bed, two people smiled, already lost in dreams. The End Author's Notes: Story takes place about a month after the change. As for what Vegeta does, I had a g-grandpa who was Greek, very stern, quite alot like Vegeta actually. He did the same thing when he learned my grandma was pregnant. Enjoy
