Chapter Three

"SHUT UP ALREADY!" Rei and Vegita both yelled at the same time.

"But-::sniff sniff:: you two are so mean!!!" Usagi cried again.

"DINNER IS READY!!!" Bulma cried.

"FOOD!" cried Goku and Usagi at the same time.

"Now Ms. Bulma, please do not mind Usagi being unlady- like when it comes to food-"began Ami.

"You even call that a lady?" Vegita sneered.

"Vegita!" Bulma yelled.

"Woman, don't you dare use that tone of voice with me again. I am the great prince-"

ChiChi and Bulma handed each of them a plate filled with food. Usagi and Goku started to eat as if there wouldn't be a tomorrow. Everyone else stared and had big sweat drops down their heads.

"I thought Usagi was the only one that could eat like that-"

"What the hell is she made of-"

Rei and Vegita said at the same time but stopped and glared at each other.

"DONE!" Usagi and Goku cried at the same time, "MORE PLEASE!"

After they all ate, Goku stood up. "I think that you girls need training, who trained you?"

"Luna," said Usagi.

"Luna? A girl?" Vegita asked in a mean tone of voice.

"Yes, Luna is my purple talking cat-"

Trunks, Gohan, Goku and Goten started to roll on the floor laughing. Even Vegita's right corner of his mouth raised up a little.

"Men," ChiChi and Bulma mumbled.

"You girls need more training than I thought-" said Goku.

"Did Luna also teach you girls how to catch mice?" joked Gohan.

"Ok girls! Follow me to the gravity room!" said Goku.

"Leave the dishes, ChiChi and I will take care of it," said Bulma.

"I'll help," Ami got up.

"No no, you girls go ahead," said Bulma.

_________________________________________________________________

"Ok, now each one of you girls will get paired up with one of us. Gohan, you get Usagi. Ami and Makoto, I'll train both of you at the same time. Vegita, you get Rei-"

"HELL NO! I'm not training with that freak!" cried Rei.

Vegita glared at her. "Watch who you are talking about girl! You are talking to the prince of-!"

Goku sighed. "Fine, Vegita, you get Minako."

Trunks' heart sank.

Vegita walked to Minako, and while he passed Rei, he whispered in her ear "Wimp."

Rei glared at him. "Never mind Goku! I'll train with Vegita."

Minako sighed with relief, she was afraid of Vegita. Minako ran to Trunks, he smiled at her.

"Ok! BEGIN!" said Goku.

_________________________________________________________________

"Come on girl! Give me your best shot!" Vegita challenged Rei.

Rei glared at him. She made a fist and threw a punch. Vegita just moved to the side and Rei totally missed the shot.

"Pathetic! Then again what can I expect from someone that was trained by a cat? What now girl? Are you gonna scratch me?"

Rei glared at him [again]. "Mars Fire Soul!!!"

It hit him, Vegita let out a roar.

"Oh I'm sorry-!"

Vegita kicked Rei hard on the chest and sent her flying.

"This is just the beginning," he sneered.

_________________________________________________________________

"Ok Minako, show me what you got," said Trunks.

Minako kicked, pushed, and even tried slapping him. But Trunks just dodged everything.

'Is he reading my mind?' Minako wondered. 'Ok...if I can't use my body than I'll use my charm,' she thought with a giggle.

"What's so funny?" Trunks asked.

"Oh nothing, hey Trunkie, has any girl ever said that you were kawaii?" Minako purred.

Trunks stopped moving "Um..no-"

"Hey ya!!!" Minako used her Sailor V kick and sent him flying towards the wall.

"YAHOO!!!" Minako cheered.

_________________________________________________________________

"Ok Usagi, now hit me," said Gohan.

Usagi yawned, "Oh please, can't we go and get a snack?"

"Come on Usagi-or shall I say Bunny!" Gohan laughed.

Usagi noticed what a cute smile he had.

"Ok then! Moon wand-"

"No no no! Not with your silly moon wand. Come on! Kick me in the face!" Gohan challenged.

"But you are too tall!" cried Usagi near tears.

Gohan sighed. "I'll tell you what, we'll play a little game-"

"Oh oh! Patty cake?"

Gohan rolled his eyes, "No, not patty cake. I'll cover my eyes and I'll try to knock you down and you try to knock me down."

"WAAA!!" Usagi cried.

"What now?" asked Gohan.

"But you are too heavy for me to push!!!!" Usagi whined.

_________________________________________________________________

"Nice kick Makoto, now just use a little more strength," said Goku.

"I think we've done enough training for today," said Ami who was out of breath.

"Ok girls! Bedtime!!!" cried Bulma.

The senshi detransformed.

_________________________________________________________________

"Isn't Trunks cute?" Usagi and Minako squeaked.

"Come on guys, tomorrow is another day," said Makoto.

The lights went out,but Rei couldn't sleep.

'That Vegita guy sure is stubborn. But that's my type of guy', Rei thought then drifted off to sleep.

_________________________________________________________________

Usagi, Vegita and Trunks wolfed down their breakfast. The senshi were used to pigs so they didn't really care.

"It's such a beautiful day. Why don't we take a break today?" asked Ami.

"Sure girls, I'll be in my lab if you need me. Trunks is going to school and Vegita will go anywhere," said Bulma, as she collected all the dishes and set them in the sink.

"You go ahead Bulma, I'll take care of the dishes," said Ami.

"Thank you dear," said Bulma.

_________________________________________________________________

Minako and Usagi were giggling on the grass about who was cuter, Goku or Trunks. Ami was reading under the shade of a tree. Rei was meditating.

Not far away Vegita was watching Rei. "She is so free-spirited. Like a wild fire that can't be put out. Why I feel like this I have no idea," he said to himself. But still he sat there and watched her, mesmerized by her beauty. ‘Maybe…No forget it Vegita!’ he shook the idea off.

_________________________________________________________________

Setting: Trunks at school...

Trunks just couldn't seem to concentrate.

"I've got to think of a way to help them get back home..."

Trunks thought of something, but he didn't want them to go home...not yet at least.

Finally school was over, there were a group of girls ahead of him. As he passed by them, the group giggled. He bowed to them and they giggled even more.

'Losers,' thought Trunks.

_________________________________________________________________

Training again...

"So girl, I see that you meditate too," said Vegita with a sneer.

Rei glared at him. "That's right Veggie, got a problem with it?"

Vegita glared at her. Then he charged at her with anger.

_________________________________________________________________

After a few minutes....

Vegita shot a bunch of powerful ki blasts at Rei. She was pinned against a stone wall and had no where to go.

Each blast sent her body crashing deeper and deeper into the wall.

“Baka pathetic girl, did I teach you nothing!? FIGHT!!” Vegita yelled.

“BURNING ATTACK!” Rei screamed as she released an enormous ki blast at Vegita.

“My son’s special attack…HA! Pathetic!” he easily blocked the blast and continued firing.

‘That was the last of my power,’ Rei thought as she tried to stand up to Vegita’s attacks but she didn’t have enough strength to do so. “Vegita, please, stop.”

Her Mars symbol flickered on her forehead.

“Please, stop,” Rei managed to choke out before she passed out on the ground.

Vegita stopped shooting at her when he saw this and ran over to her. Her body was covered in blood, wounds and burns. Vegita leaned over her and checked for a pulse.

_________________________________________________________________

Hospital...

‘How could I let this happen?’ Vegita thought as he sat down.

A flashback entered his mind of how he kept on shooting at Rei, too weak to defend herself.

He remembered her voice, full of fear, “Please, stop.”

Tears welled up in his eyes but he blinked them away and put on his mean look again.

"I am the great prince, I do not shed tears," he reminded himself.

On the benches, Minako sobbed, Trunks hugged her and tried to comfort her. Usagi was crying too loudly and got kicked out of the hospital. Ami was talking to the doctor.

"Ok girls, you may see her now," said the doctor.

Makoto went outside to get Usagi.

_________________________________________________________________

The girls walked into the hospital room, they saw their friend, hooked up to a respirator, tubes going in and out of what seemed like everywhere. Bleep…bleep…a green jagged line ran across a screen. A bag filled with red fluid ran down a tube into her arm. Tears once again welled up in Minako's eyes as she walked over to Rei.

“Rei…” she whispered.

Rei’s eyes fluttered open, she tried to speak but because of the tube down her throat she couldn’t talk.

Bulma handed Rei a piece of paper and a pen. Rei wrote out: ‘Minako, minna, I’m glad you’re here.’

The girls smiled as Goku and Gohan walked into the room. Rei’s eyes widened, as she was surprised that they came.

‘Goku, Gohan.’ She wrote. ‘hi.’

“Hi Rei.” Goku smiled.

Rei managed to smile as she wrote some more: ‘Please, don’t be mad at Vegita. It was me who was supposed to decide when to stop because I knew that he could go on like that forever.’

The others looked at her in surprise.

“Why didn’t you tell him to stop then?” Ami asked.

She wrote: ‘I did, but I guess his anger got the better of him and he wouldn’t stop.’

Goku tensed and balled his fists, “That’s it,” he said between clenched teeth as he walked out of the room. “Get well Rei.” He said.

Bulma shook her head and rolled her eyes. A few minutes later the girls and Gohan heard shouting coming from the waiting room.

“What the hell is your problem Vegita? The girl said stop and you didn’t?”

“Kakarott get your hands off me!”

Goku shoved Vegita out the hospital doors so they could battle outside.

_________________________________________________________________

Makoto walked in the room, carrying Usagi who was sleeping.

"What happened?" Ami whispered.

"I don't know, I guess she got bored outside and decided to take a nap," Makoto whispered back.

Rei rolled her eyes and wrote: 'It's just like that meatball head'

Everyone else laughed.

"Is there anything you need?" Makoto asked.

Rei thought for a minute and wrote: 'please get vegita'.

_________________________________________________________________

Vegeta smiled a little bit and cleared his throat. ‘Should I apologize?’ Vegita thought quirking an eyebrow.

Rei wrote on the paper: ‘Don’t worry about it, it was my fault really. I didn’t tell you when to stop and I know how you can get fired up.’

She smiled. He half smiled back.

"Um…" Vegita tried to shake off the weird feeling that washed over him and change the subject.

"Uh…when do you think that you will be getting out of here?"

‘In a couple of days hopefully. Hospitals kinda creep me out.’

Someone knocked on the door. It was Minako and Ami.

'Where's Usagi and Makoto?' Rei wrote.

"Oh Usagi was snoring too loudly and got kicked out of the hospital. Again." said Minako.

Everyone laughed.

_________________________________________________________________

It turned out that Rei was better the next day.

"Ok, then we shall continue training you girls," said Goku.

"Are you sure Rei could handle this?" asked Ami.

"Of course," said Rei.

"Good-"

Than a blast of light blinded everyone.

"Not again!" cried Gohan and Trunks.

"IT'S THE TV!" everyone cried.

After the light faded a cute little pink haired girl popped out of the tv.

"Huh?" Rini blinked, then a video tape fell off the tv and hit her head.

"Ouch!" she cried.

"Rini!!!" the senshi cried when they saw her.

"Trunks! Gohan!" Bulma cried when she saw the video.
