HOUSE OF VEGETA HIGHLIGHTS 2


The world was upside down.

Vegeta no Ouji blinked, staring at his universe. His line of sight
was tilted, reversed. Perfectly normal for his people.

Looking about, he saw his family dangling alongside. Golden bodies
were inverted, dark hair hanging down in columns everywhere. Nuru
clung to Raditz, and the Ou had Xenna. Tezar attached himself to
Bardock's middle.

The prince yawned, glancing out the now bright window. A brilliant
sunrise beamed red glow across the room, shading sharp contrast into
the rafters where they hung.

_Hn, what happened last night? I'm trying to remember..._

Dark eyes trained on him nearby. "I see you're awake."

"Only barely, father. I can't recall what happened yesterday."

The Ou grunted. "The last thing I know is that your foolish brother
opened the window wide from a crescent moon."

A loud yawn interrupted them. Kakarot turned and nuzzled his mate,
purring.

"Good morning, koi." soft nips on the silky throat.

The ouij rumbled blissfully. "Don't you think we should take this
elsewhere, Kakarot?"

"Hmm?" sleepy eyes looked about as he rotated on his tail, seeing the
others dangling alongside.

"Good morning, saba. A quiet day, hn?"

"So far, loon. I intend to see that it stays that way."

"Why wouldn't it?"

"Let's just say-" cable like arms grabbed the Ou from behind. Bardock.

"You always were a crank first thing." the dark saiyan rumbled
against his king. Tiny snarls interrupted further talk.

"I don't think Tezar likes being squashed, father." Kakarot noted,
seeing his son puff and spit.

"Bah. A little squash doesn't hurt anything. I used to lay on you all
the time to keep you quiet."

Xenna abruptly woke, still nestling against the Ou. She started
chirping, which set off the other two chibis. Soon screeches filled
the once quiet air.

"So much for that." the Ou groused. Raditz looked about blearily.

"What's all the noise?" he stared at the squalling Nuru sticking to
his gut.

"Your loudmouthed daugher is what!" the ouji rounded on him. "Not to
mention her crackbrain father who opens windows under crescent moon!!"

"How the hell am I going to remember every freaking cycle? Besides,
it was supposed to rain last night!"

"It's your fault we're up here, Raditz!" Kakarot shouted.

"Your typical logic amazes me, Kakarot. If you don't like it, get
your fat ass down!!"

The wild one glared. "What the hell are you doing looking at my ass?"

A smirk. "It's kind of hard to miss."

The ouji snarled, white teeth flashing.

"Relax, Vegeta...I just had an eye on it."

"Do you want to keep that eye?!"

"Here goes the bullshit." Bardock growled. "Looks like you were
right, koi..."

The Ou sniffed. "I told you they'd start up!"

"Only a moron opens windows under moon...unless it's on purpose!"
Kakarot bellowed.

"Yeah, Kakarot...I just wanted to see you dance. I heard that you
once-"

"Enough!!" the ouji roared. "Or I'll burn you, Raditz...you'll never
hold up to a super saiyan!"

The chibis screamed in delight, enjoying the ridiculous argument.

Fangs clacked. "I'm getting damn sick of that tired assed threat,
brother. Bring it on! Name the time and place-"

An earsplitting roar stopped all argument. Bardock trailed to a
growl. "Dimwits...save this for Frieza!!"

"Fuck Frieza!" Kakarot snapped back. "Raditz wants me to dance and
I'll do it...across his thick skull!"

"Tough talk from somebody who lost it at that club...you do remember
that, little brother?" a nasty grin.

Kakarot flushed red, edging to attack.

"Cretin" the ouji hissed, moving at him also.

They never got the chance. With blinding speed the Ou grabbed their
heads and cracked them together. Sparks flew from impact as the
saiyans wailed in pain.

"A king's work is never done" he said smugly as his sons saw stars.
Bardock laughed with approval.

"Ai, loud mouths and soft skulls...a bad combination, don't you
think?"

"Shut up, father" Vegeta no Ouji growled, clutching his throbbing
skull.

"I'm over here, sweet prince" Bardock taunted, smirking. "You're
talking to Raditz."

"Go to hell."

"Tsk...such a bad temper. I wonder who you got it from eh?" more
laughter.

Raditz squinted, trying to clear his vision. "That wasn't
appreciated!"

"I could care less. Do something about it, fool." the Ou challenged.

Kakarot rubbed his sore head. "I'll lay odds on that bet!"

More earsplitting shrieks from the chibis.

"GAAAHHH" Kakarot covered his ringing ears. "Shit...somebody make
them be quiet."

"As quiet as you are? Watch yourself, fool...you almost toppled!"
Bardock warned.

"EVERYBODY shut up." the prince complained, his head still sore.

"I don't back down from any challenge!" Raditz bellowed. It was a
mistake, making his skull rattle again.

"It might work better if you challenged the right person, asshole!"
the Ou reminded him. "You're looking at Kakarot!!"

"Ai, koi, our crosseyed clowns are up to the challenge!" Bardock
mocked.

"What the hell are you laughing at, father. It ain't funny!"

"It is to me, you asswipe!!"

"I'm sick of all of you" the prince hissed. "If Raditz hadn't been so
damn stupid in opening that window-"

"Not nearly as stupid as you!"

"Don't make me swing over there" Kakarot snarled. "I'll bust you a
new one!!"

Screams, curses and shouts continued on as they dangled, arguing
idiotically.

The Ou cradled Xenna, smiling. "Hn, what a pleasant morning."
