Incase we all don't know, I DO NOT own DBZ. Akira Toriyama does, genius that he is!!
````````
Vegeta stared around him in confusion. He was on the small
volcanic island he'd found but he didn't remember going there. The
last thing he could clearly recall was Goku chasing him. But he couldn't
remember why. He shrugged and decided to return to CC. He was
starving.
Once he got to CC he saw a crew rebuilding half of the building. He
scanned the area for Trunks and Bulma's ki, but they weren't there.
He could just make out Trunks' about the area of the Son house. He
took off in that direction.
Goku felt Vegeta's ki coming towards them. He sighed with relief
when he felt that it was stable and back to normal. Gohan, Trunks,
Goten, and Piccolo were all on alert as Goku dashed to the front yard.
"It's okay guys, can't you feel it?" they gave him a questioning glance.
"It's Vegeta, he's back in control!" Trunks hopped up and down excitedly
until Vegeta landed in front of them.
"Papa!" he shrieked and dashed forward, flinging himself into Vegeta's
arms. Vegeta frowned, he still wasn't quite used to public displays
of affection, especially in front of Kakarotto and Piccolo.
"What's wrong with you?" he demanded. Goku came forward.
"How are you? Is the Majin gone?" Vegeta gave him a blank look.
"The what?" Goku frowned.
"You don't remember anything?" Vegeta scowled.
"Remember what? What are you talking about?!" he snapped. Suddenly
Bulma shoved past Goku and stood in front of Vegeta, her shoulders quivering
in rage.
"Bulma, don't!" Goku whispered urgently. She shot him a look
full of venom, Goku flinched and bit his lower lip, his face clouded in
worry. Vegeta just stared in confusion. He was a bit taken
aback by the look of pure fury on her face.
"You hit our son, you nearly choke me to death, you destroy the Capsule
Corporation and then you just expect to waltz back like nothing happened?!"
"W-what-?" Vegeta stuttered. Bulma's face was getting red, she
didn't even notice his confusion.
"You’re a cold, selfish bastard!" she yelled and slapped him as hard
as she could. Goku winced as the sound of flesh hitting flesh echoed.
Everyone was dead silent. Vegeta's head had actually snapped back
from the force of the blow and the mark of a hand was clearly visible on
his cheek. His hand slowly came up to touch the red flesh.
"Oh no!" Goku cried and he ran forward and shoved Bulma to the ground
just as Vegeta's fist whizzed past. The air was filled with the smell
of burnt flesh, the 'M' back on his forehead. Goku, Trunks, Goten,
Gohan, and Piccolo gaped in horror as the whites of Vegeta's eyes went
totally black, as if his eyes had been torn from the sockets. His
hair turned gold and he screamed in rage.
"YOU FUCKING WHORE!!" he shrieked powering up. the ground began
to tremble and Bulma squealed in fear. Trunks, Goten, Piccolo, and
Gohan all formed a shield around Bulma and Goku grabbed Vegeta.
"Stop Vegeta, please! She didn't mean it!" he pleaded. Vegeta
snarled and slapped Goku across the face.
"NO ONE HITS ME! HOW DO YOU LIKE IT! FUCK YOU ALL! I WILL
DESTROY THIS ENTIRE PLANET!!!!"
"NO!!" Goku shrieked, going super saiyan. He threw Vegeta to
the ground and dove on top of him and they rolled across the ground kicking
and punching.
"They look like little boys." Bulma mused.
"Bastard!!" Vegeta shrieked.
"CALM DOWN!!" Goku yelled. Vegeta punched him in the jaw and
rolled out of his grasp and teleported several feet away. He then
rushed forward with blinding speed and at the last moment his feet shot
out and slammed into Goku's back. He hurtled through the air with
a cry of pain and anger. He halted himself with a handspring and
landed on his feet instantly charging at Vegeta. Vegeta teleported
away as Goku threw a punch. He reappeared a few feet away gasping
for breath. Goku took the opportunity to attack and threw a Kamehameha
at Vegeta. Vegeta teleported away again and as he reappeared he was
staggering and sweating heavily. Goku sensed his ki draining away
and flew behind him, kicking him in the ribs, sending him crashing to the
ground.
"ENOUGH!!" Vegeta shrieked. Not only did his shout hurt
their ears, but he also sent out a psychic attack leaving everyone crippled
as the word echoed and re-echoed through their skulls. When they
finally came to, Vegeta was long gone.
"Damn it." Goku muttered. "He did it again." He got up and walked
over to where Bulma lay and gently shook her until she woke. She
groaned and stirred, then gazed up at him with blood-shot eyes.
"Goku?" he gave her a moment to regain her sense before letting
her have it.
"Why did you do that?" he yelled. Bulma flinched, Goku had never
looked at her with such anger in his eyes.
"W-what?" she whimpered.
"Why did you hit Vegeta?" he snapped. Her fear was instantly
replaced by anger.
"He hit Trunks! He wrecked my house! He-" Goku cut her off.
"That WAS NOT Vegeta! That was the MAJIN! Vegeta didn't know he did
any of that. He was back to normal and you had to go and hit him
for something he didn't even do. Now the Majin has control again.
All thanks to you!!" Bulma's eyes were as wide as saucers and they
instantly filled with tears.
"I-I didn't know! I'm sorry Goku! I didn't know, I swear!" she
sobbed.
"Don't apologize to me." He snapped. His face softened and he
knelt down next to her. "I'm sorry Bulma. I didn't mean to
yell. I'm not mad at you, really. I just wish you would control
your temper sometimes."
"I know. I'm sorry. I should have listened to him.
But I was so angry. I felt betrayed, and when he hit Trunks like
that, I was so scared."
"I know." Goku said, hugging her close as she sobbed into his shoulder.
Trunks, Goten and Gohan were finally waking up to Piccolo shaking their
shoulders.
"So were just going to let him disappear again?" Piccolo said.
"Yes. We'll see him at the tournament." Goku replied.
Vegeta fell to the ground with a crash. Teleporting had many
advantages but the disadvantages far outweighed the good points.
He was dizzy, sweating, weak, and he felt like he was going to vomit at
any second. He lay on the ground gasping for air, his eyes wide open
to stop the dizziness. If he used that technique at the Tenkai-ichi
Budokai he would certainly lose and he didn't like the psychic powers,
they made his skull feel like it was going to crack and he felt like a
coward using them at the last minute to escape. He cursed Goku.
But he would have his revenge.
TWO WEEKS LATER
The day of the tournament was exceptionally beautiful. The placement
matches had already begun and Vegeta stood in the ring smiling at his weak
opponent. He took up no defensive stance, just stood there grinning,
his arms folded across his chest. The 'M' was still burnt into his
flesh.
The man opposite him scowled. His opponent was clearly mocking
him. He launched an attack. Vegeta leapt forward quicker than
his opponent’s eyes could follow and punched him square in the nose.
The man flew out of the ring. Vegeta smirked.
"That was pathetic."
Goku, Vegeta, Piccolo, Yamcha, Gohan, Krillin and Tien all made it to
the finals with ease. There was only one more spot open in the finals
and the final contestant was Mr. Satan.
The first match was between Krillin and Mr. Satan. Krillin attacked
first, landing a punch right in Mr. Satan's face. He dropped to the
arena floor with a shriek. Krillin stared down, dumbfounded.
He leaned over and as soon as he did, Mr. Satan swept his feet out from
under him.
"Ack! You cheater!" Krillin yelled as he leapt to his feet. He
delivered a high kick and caught Mr. Satan right under the chin.
He flipped in the air, landing on his face and before he could get up,
Krillin rushed forward and booted him out of the arena.
"You call me a cheat?!" Mr. Satan howled as he flew over the crowd.
"The winner of match one is Krillin!!" the announcer bellowed into
the mike. the crowd roared.
Match two was Tien Shin-han vs. Vegeta.
"He's gonna kill me." Tien groused.
"Don't be like that Tien!" Chaotzu cheered. "Do you best!"
Tien smiled and nodded and entered the ring. He swallowed nervously
as he saw Vegeta standing there, arms crossed and a wide grin on his face.
The gong chimed the beginning of the match and Vegeta didn't move.
Tien shot forward and landed a punch right in Vegeta's face! Vegeta
head snapped back, but her remained standing in the same position.
He slowly raised his head.
"Fool." He whispered. He back-handed Tien and sent him flying.
He managed to catch himself just before going out of bounds. He waved
his arms to regain balance but it was too late. As soon as Vegeta
saw him stagger he trotted forward and kicked Tien in the crotch as hard
as he could. There was a universal groan through the audience and
Tien crashed down out of bounds, holding himself and choking in agony.
Vegeta burst out laughing.
"I've been wanting to do that since you insulted me when Kakarotto
came home! WAHAHAHAHAHA!!" he doubled over laughing, pounding his fist
into the arena floor until it began to crack.
"The winner is Prince Vegeta!!"
