Night of the Babysitters V
"Are you sure you can do this
Goku?" Chi Chi asks her husband. "Don't worry Chi Chi,
I can handle it!" the saiyan replies, smiling. Bulma, Videl,
18, and Chi Chi were dragging Vegeta, Gohan and Krillin to the
mall. Goku managed to get out of it by volunteering to baby-sit.
Unfortunately for him, they'd be gone the whole day, and he'd be
stuck with the monsters...ahem...kids the whole day. "All
right then, out cell phone numbers are on the fridge."
"Can we get this over with?" Vegeta snapped. "Quit
your complaining, Vegeta, we're going." Bulma shot back as
she and Chi Chi headed out the door. "Don't do anything
you'll regret, Trunks" Bulma waved and closed the
door behind her.
Goku turned to his babysitees. Trunks and Goten had disappeared.
Goku looked puzzled, "Where are Trunks and Goten?" Bra
and Pan stared up at the saiyan, and said different things at the
same time; "Outside." "Potty." Again, Goku
looked puzzled. "Well, you two can go play I guess, I start
making lunch..." "We'll help!!" the girls chirped
instantly. Goku smiled, "Ok." The three of them entered
the kitchen.
Trunks and Goten sat on the roof. Trunks's room had
been...uh....shall we say...blown apart in a training accident.
"This is going to be our sweetest job yet!" Trunks
exclaimed excitedly. "Yeah, my dad's a great fighter, but a
little clueless, eh?" Goten laughed. "Yeah! So any
ideas?" "All the basics; bugs in food, vanishing kids,
fire, paint, weird screams, dress up, we can do
anything!!" Goten's mouth moved so fast the words didn't
have time to pour out of his mouth.
Bra spilled flour all over the kitchen floor and Pan dropped the
Jell-O-mix into the egg batter. Goku burnt his hand on the stove
and went to run water on it. When he came back, the pie was a
disaster and the salad was sizzling on the stove. Goku cocked his
head, "What were we making again?" Bra and Pan shrugged
innocently. "How 'bout we just order for pizza?"
suggests Goku. "OKEY!" squealed the part- saiyan. So
Goku called Pick Pixie Pizza; "Hi, we'd like to order 400
large pizzas with everything on it." Pan shook her head and
waved her arms, "Uh...make that 385 with everything and 15
without cheese..." Pan smiled.
It took 10 pizza cars to deliver the pizza, the pizza dudes
marched into the house, carrying the loads of warm pizza.
"Where are the guests?" one of them asked. Goku, again,
looked confused, "What guests?" The pizza dude,
sweatdropped; "Aren't all these pizzas for some party or
something for Capsule Corp.?" he questioned. "No, these
pizzas are for me, my son, my granddaughter, and my friend's
kids' lunch." Goku said slowly, as if stating the obvious.
The pizza guys almost dropped his pizzas, "FOUR HUNDRED
PIZZAS FOR A LUNCH FOR FIVE?" the pizza guy almost screamed.
The other pizza dudes stared. Goku nodded, confused by their
reaction.
Trunks, Goten, Bra, and Pan lay back in their chairs, they were
stuffed full. 50 worms, some with dirt still on them found their
say into Goku's pizzas. He didn't notice, and if he did...he
didn't care, because he ate them anyway. The 400 pizza boxes made
a huge mound of trash that piled up to the ceiling. BUUURRPPP!!
"Man, that was good, wasn't it guys?" Goku dumped the
last 3 empty boxes into the trash. They nodded, unable to speak
for fear that their stomachs would throw the food back up.
When they were able to move again, Bra and Pan sat on Goku's lap
asking him to tell them stories, a.k.a., keeping the baby-sitter
busy while Trunks and Goten to plan stuff that'll make the
baby-sitter have a bad day. And indeed.... Trunks and Goten were
armed with everything from water balloons to giant fake bugs.
They packed their supplies into two backpacks. They grinned at
each other. "Ready for phase #1, Bra." Trunks said into
his walkie-talkie. Bra jerked her head up, a tiny ear-piece was
in her ear. She nodded at Pan, who smiled mischievously. The fun
would soon begin.
Goku was telling the girls about when he escaped planet Namek.
Trunks and Goten hovered above Goku, totally unnoticed, Goku was
too deeply absorbed in his story. SPLASH! SPLASH! SPLASH! Bra and
Pan jumped off the saiyan's lap just in time. Three water
balloons exploded upon impact with Goku's head. "Gaaa!! What
the--" Trunks and Goten laughed, and tossed more balloons at
their baby-sitter. SPLASH! SPLASH! Bra and Pan stood a safe
distance away, giggling. Goku grinned, and flew up towards Trunks
and Goten, he said; "You guys wanna play with water
balloons? Well you should aim for the left of the head, because
when people jerk their head it's usually to the left, so you'd
hit them in the face...." Goku went on to tell Trunks and
Goten about waterballooning techniques. Trunks and Goten fell
over, anime style, in midair!
Trunks and Goten stalked out of the room. "That was no fun,
Goku is too clueless to be angry." Trunks grumbled.
"You're right. He'd not very serious is he?" Goten
slumped on a chair in Bra's room. "Is there -anything- your
dad's afraid of?" Trunks asked his friend. "Lemme
think...." Goten thought. And thought. "What are you
guys waiting for?" Bra's voice hissed from the
walkie-talkie. "We can't think of something that will annoy
Goku. Be patient." Trunks told his sister.
"What are we gonna doooo?" wailed Goten, "This is
gonna RUIN our reputation!" Trunks sighed, "I
know, I know, help me think." The two demi-saiyan sat and
thought. And thought. And thought. "I've got it!"
Trunks cried. Goten looked at him, "What?" Trunks
grinned, "We can hide all the food in the house!!"
Goten stared at him, "Do we get to eat it?" Trunks
shrugged, "If ya want. C'mon, tell Bra and Pan."
Goten and Trunks stealthily raided the refrigerator while Goku
told Pan and Bra about the time spent in the hyperbolic time
chamber with Gohan. They smuggled the food into Bra's room. After
than, they quietly ate the food in the pantry and cupboards.
"We're done." hissed Trunks into his walkie-talkie.
"Granddaddy I'm hungry, can we have a snack?" Pan asked
in her practiced cute voice. Goku scratched his head, "I
don't see why not, let's go make a couple dozen ham sandwiches
for a light snack." he said as he got up. Bra and Pan jumped
off his lap, giggling.
"Wha.... WHERE DID ALL THE FOOD GO???" Goku's jaw
dropped at the totally empty refrigerator. The saiyan frantically
searched the cupboards and pantry. Trunks and Goten snickered
watching their baby-sitter's face go from surprise to horror.
"We'll starve!" Goku cried. Pan and Bra twisted their
faces into the saddest and -cutest- face anyone could possibly
stand, "No snack?" they squealed innocently. Goku
stared at their sad faces, "I...uh....guess we...could
go........s-s....s-s-shop-p-p-p...ing..." Goku spluttered.
"YAY!" Bra and Pan chirped, their expressions instantly
happy.
"How do we get there, dad? You can't drive." Goten
asked as they prepared to do the thing Goku dreaded the most,
shopping. Goku sweatdropped, "I guess we could fly and carry
the food back..." The kids sweatdropped, carry all
that food??? Goku, Trunks, Goten, Bra, and Pan took off
towards the mall (since Goku had no idea where food was purchased
and only knew how to consume it) "Ooooo, lookie all the
pretty toys!" Bra chirped, as they passed a Toys R Us.
"Well, I -guess- we could stop there first..." Goku did
not know that he was making a big mistake. "YES!" the
four mischievous part-saiyans cried and flew down towards the toy
store.
As soon as they entered the door, the saiyan baby-sitter lost
track of his babysitees. A few minutes of searching Goku spotted
Trunks and Goten going at the store manager with huge water guns,
"HAHAHA! Take this for not selling Gundam Wing action
figures cheaper!! Hahaha!" the little savages cried. Goku
was about to go after them when he heard familiar giggling. He
turned to find a store clerk tied to a post with jump ropes, and
a pile of Lincoln Logs surrounded his feet. Pan and Bra had on
huge masks and grass skirts. "We need a sacrifice! We need a
sacrifice" Pan chanted. The clerk spotted Goku, "HELP
ME!!" he cried. Goku sweatdropped. "You displease the
gods!" Bra whacked the clerk with a stuffed dog.
Goku was about to save the clerk when he heard someone scream at
the video game section. "AIIIIEEEEEEEEEE!!" a woman in
a red dress jumped over a lone fire truck and ran down the aisle.
Behind her was Trunks and Goten waving a N64 controllers like
lassos and screaming, "Come back Charmander!" A soaked
store manager stalked up to Goku, "Are those your kids?!?!"
he screamed. Goku sweatdropped, the store clerk screamed as Bra
and Pan held a barbecue torch up to the Lincoln Logs. The saiyan
nodded. "GET THEM OUT! I won't make you pay, just GET OUT!
OUT! AND NEVER COME BACK!" the man shrieked.
"That wasn't very nice of you, you know." Goku told the
part-saiyans once they were on their way to the mall again.
"We know..." they replied in unison, then broke out
saying their reasons. "The action figures were too
expensive! $13! That's a rip off!" "The clerk wouldn't
let us eat the candy from the candy machines without a
quarter!" "The lady made us share the Pokemon Stadium 2
with some mindless idiots that killed our progress! And she did
look like a Charmander....sort of."
The group made it to the mall around 2 in the afternoon.
"Now what do you guys wanna buy?" Goku asked as they
entered the huge complex. "Games!" "Water
guns!" "Spaghetti!" "Cheese!" "No,
sushi!" "Chicken!" Goku sweatdropped. So they
raided the toy store, not finding any food stores. They were
kicked out of three stores when Bra spotted Bulma.
"Mommmmmmmmmyy!!" Bulma turned around, "Bra?
What are you doing here?" Chi Chi, 18, Videl, Krillin,
Gohan, and Vegeta turned from their various positions.
"Goku! What are these kids doing here??" Chi Chi
demanded once she spotted her husband. "Uh...well, Chi
Chi....the kids got hungry and we ran out of food and so we went
shopping?" he said lamely. "Ran out of food? What did
you eat for lunch?" Bulma asked, putting Bra down.
"We ordered 400 pizzas from Pick Pixie Pizza..." Goten
told her, Trunks jabbed him in the ribs. "How did you run
out of food then? I just bought a new stock two days ago. Unless
Trunks, Bra and Vegeta ate it all already." Bulma said
confused, glaring at her children and husband. "Don't look
at me, Woman, I didn't eat it." Vegeta grumbled, he was
holding 7 bags of who-knows-what. "Well...I was pretty sure
that there wasn't any food there..." Goku said. "What's
going on here?" Krillin asked, blinking. "Why were you
shopping for food in a mall?" 18 asked. Goku
blinked, "You don't buy food here?" Everyone
sweatdropped.
Bulma was the first to figure it out, being the genius that she
is, "Oh, no, Trunks! You guys did it again didn't
you?!?!" she fumed. "You hid all the food so Goku would
take you out. What chaos did you cause?" Trunks, Goten, Bra
and Pan sighed, "Well......" Chi Chi grabbed Goten by
the ear, "You did it again?!" Goten gulped. Vegeta
laughed, "Fool, Kakarott, one of the greatest fighters in
the universe, outsmarted by a two second graders and two four
year olds!" "Does this mean we don't get
spaghetti?" Pan whined. Gohan picked her up, "Yes it
does, and it also means you're grounded." Pan stared at him,
"What's grounded mean? You're not gonna put me in that
machine where mommy 'grounds' meat are you?" Pan eyes became
teary. Gohan sighed, "No."
"C'mon, we're going home." Bulma growled as she took
her son's arm. "Yes! The brats have saved me!"
Vegeta laughed. "What did you say Vegeta?" Bulma
demanded. "Nothing, woman." Vegeta answered, smirking.
Krillin was not so lucky, he had to stay at the mall with 18.
(Don't worry Krillin, I'll use Marron next time so you can get
out of things too!) Videl and Gohan took Pan home, where they didn't
ground her.
Trunks and Bra were however, grounded, as was Goten. The ice
cream smuggled out of the refrigerator melted under Bra's bed,
and the liquid sank through the carpet and ended up on the roof
of the master bedroom. So in the middle of the night a few days
after Goku's baby-sitting job, there was a nice big SPOLT.
Followed by an "AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!" and a
"SHUT UP WOMAN, I'M TRYING TO SLEEP!"
and another SPLOT! And an "ARRRGGGGGGG!!",
then a "TRUNNNNKKKKKSSS!!!!" and
stomping up the stairs and sounds of pillows. Glass shattering.
"Mr.Rubber!!! You killed Mr.Rubber!!" Loud
bumps. Wood creaking. "AHHHHHHHHHHH!!" "Not the
Mickey Mouse lamp! No! Mommy, NOOO!!" Crash. More shattering
glass. A thump outside. "Owwwwwwww...."
