| DISCLAMER- Let's break the word down. 'Dis' means 'Not'. 'Claimer' means... 'To own'. Put them together and you get.... "do not own!" <Duh.> TITLE- Saiyan Armor Won't Save You This Time, Vegeta SUMMARY- Vegeta and the gang go shopping for the clothes to wear at Gohan and Videl's wedding. Saiyan Armor Won't Save You This Time, Vegeta Vegeta was training in the gravity room when Goku, Chi-Chi, Gohan, and Videl showed up. What are they doing here? He thought to himself. "Hi!!!" Bulma shouted on the top of her lungs, giving everyone hugs on their way in. Chi-Chi spoke up. "Bulma, Goku and I are going to take our car and leave early� it�s going to take forever for him to find something to wear!" "Okay then I�ll see you there! Bye!" "Bye!" Bulma looked at Gohan and Videl. "The soon to be bride and groom, how cute!" Gohan smiled and put his arm around Videl. "Is everyone ready to go?" Gohan asked. Everyone nodded except for Videl. "I just have to use the bathroom really quick." She walked off down the hall. I can�t wait to get my custom-made wedding dress today! Ahh! This is so great! And Goku and Gohan are buying their tuxes and� Vegeta passed her in the hall on his way from the gravity room. Come to think of it, I don�t think Vegeta has anything formal. "Umm�Vegeta, don�t go in there!" Videl yelled as she passed him. He stopped. "Woman, why not?!" He demanded. "Oh, Bulma�s in there and she�ll make you come shopping with us!" "I�d like to see her try," Vegeta mumbled as he continued on anyway. ************************* An hour later found them entering a formal wear store. Out of the whole group, Vegeta was the only one frowning. As a matter of fact, he was scowling even deeper than usual. He hadn�t like the first time that he had been forced to come here to rent a suit for a �formal affair� as Bulma had called it. So how the HFIL had she managed to get him here again? "Told ya," Videl stated in Vegeta�s direction. He responded by giving her the finger. "C�mon!" Bulma exclaimed. "Let�s get started." She grabbed Vegeta�s arm and dragged the now protesting Saiyan prince into the men�s department. "We have to find Gohan a suit, since I�m going to be with Videl, helping her with her dress, you get to help Gohan." ************************* Gohan held up a black jacket that looked like all the others. "What about this one, Vegeta?" Vegeta�s muscles tensed, it was all he could do not to blow this blasted store into a pile of rubble in a newly formed crater. "It looks the same as all the others!" He responded sharply. Gohan shook his head. "No, I didn�t like the collar as much on the last one�" He flipped through the rack again. Vegeta felt like he was going to start having spasm attacks. "I AM PRINCE OF THE SAIYANS!! NOT SOME UNDERPAID FASHION DESIGNER!!!" He screamed. Everyone in the store looked in their direction (as Gohan anime faints.) Vegeta began to walk quickly away, with no one watching him maybe he could escape. A familiar voice rang up. "That could only be Vegeta!" Vegeta turned towards the sound. The only thing he could see above the racks of clothes was hair. And there was only one person on earth with hair like that. "@#&*�" Vegeta mumbled. "Hey, Vegeta!" "Kakarot, I am not here to-" "Sir, is this the tux you decided on?" A woman who worked at he store asked. "Yes," Goku answered. "Sir, would you like us to package-" "Sure, and call me Goku!" Goku said enthusiastically. Vegeta rolled his eyes. "Um� sir� I mean, Goku, would you like to pay now or when the rest of your party is finished buying?" "You�d have to talk to my wife about that one," he stated and headed off to find Gohan. With nothing better to do, Vegeta followed. "So what�s up, Vegeta? Enjoying the day? Why did you come anyways? Did Bulma have to force you?" "Shut up, Kakarot. The only reason you�re here is because your wife probably threatened to beat you with that pan of hers!" "Hey, don�t mention the pan, bud," Goku said. "Bud?!" Vegeta said, about to grab Goku and choke him. His hands were almost on Goku�s neck when Bulma came up. Vegeta panicked and quickly moved his hands to the nearest rack and thumbed through the clothes, playing innocent. "How�s everything going?" Bulma asked. Vegeta quickly responded, "Fine, fine, everything�s fine." "Well," Bulma said. "If everything�s fine why are you looking to buy women�s pantyhose? I think you�d better stick to the men�s section, Vegeta." Goku began laughing. "I�m going to go check on Gohan!" Bulma exclaimed. "I�ll come with you," Goku said, following her. Vegeta silently cursed and did the same. ************************* Gohan was sitting in a chair with about 500 tuxes around him. "I just can�t decide." He stated to Bulma. Bulma surveyed the rather large pile. She laid a hand on Gohan�s shoulder. "Focus, kiddo, focus," she said. "We only need one tux." "I know, but I can�t find the �right� one!" "Okay�alright� what are you looking for� something classical, maybe� or something like a bright green tux and turban thing a la Saiyaman?" Goku looked up. "Do they actually make those?" Gohan gave his father a �look� and began to show Bulma his favorites. After an eternity, he decided on one. "I'm going to go check on Videl now!" Bulma said. "I'll come with you," Goku said, again, following her. Vegeta silently cursed, again, and did the same. ************************* "Bulma!!" Videl whined. "The dresses are either too long or too short, or too low cut in the front or-" "Okay, well, let me think..." "We could find out the perfect proportions for Videl's perfect dress mathematically and then fit her to it. I'm sure I could come up with a few equations," Gohan chimed in. "What, boy?" Vegeta asked, astonished. "I think that after all those years of studying Gohan has finally lost it..." Videl stated dryly. Bulma pushed Gohan out of the women's department with some help from Goku. "Sorry, Gohan," she said. "The groom can't see the bride in her wedding dress!" Much later Videl had picked out her dress. All were tired, and in Vegeta's case, grumpy, and all were ready to leave. All of their shopping was complete with a beautiful dress for the bride, and a dashing tux for the groom. And a little something for Goku, too. NOT THE END!!!!! Bulma stopped everyone dead in their tracks. "We're going back! Vegeta needs a tux!" Vegeta's first instinct was to run for it, but he decided that the action would show fear and weakness. Instead, he followed her back to the men's department. Videl began giggling."What�s so funny?" Gohan asked her. She put on a straight face and cleared her throat. "Nothing. Sorry." But no matter how hard she tried to stop herself, she began giggling again. "It's just the thought of Vegeta in a suit!" Videl became quiet as Vegeta emerged from the dressing room. but then she began uncontrollably laughing. "Oh my gosh! The SIGHT of Vegeta in a suit!" She exclaimed pointing. Vegeta was groping at his neck. "I...need...air! This thing is choking me, woman!" He said to Bulma. "How come you can wear saiyan armor but not a bowtie?" Bulma questioned hypothetically. She was royally ticking him off. Vegeta grabbed a suit off the rack and handed it to her. "Buy it, I'll wear it!" He stated as the gang laughed. "AND DO NOT LAUGH AT THE PRINCE OF SAIYANS!!!!" THE END..... .....REALLY..... ....I'M SERIOUS.... ....-ZSenshi THE END! |
