Chapter 5 - Chapter 5

The next morning at Capsule Corporation, Bulma, and Vegeta were sitting at the breakfast table. Bulma was tapping her foot impatiently on the floor, awaiting Goku's arrival. She was beginning to wonder if her best friend was still in such a fowl depressed mood. It just wasn't like Goku to act like that. She spied Vegeta bringing a sausage to his mouth through her peripheral vision, and was enraged by his thoughtlessness!

"Vegeta, wait for Goku to come down before you eat!" chided Bulma, wacking his hand with a large plastic server-spoon.

"Don't patronize me woman, I'm no child, and I'll not have you scolding me like one. I'm not waiting for that lesser Saiyan, I'll eat whenever I so please to!" argued Vegeta, expressing his normal ill-tempered attitude, and expressing his point by grabbing the dropped sausage and swiftly taking a bite out of it.

Bulma crossed her arms, and glared at him in defeat. She already knew that with Vegeta it was impossible to win any battles. He was just too self-centered and cocky! She laughed silently as she thought to herself, 'Well, Goku certainly knows how defeat the self-centered prick!, maybe not in a worded argument, but definately in a fight.' 

"Hey Bulma, hey Vegeta!" addressed Goku, walking into the room with a small somewhat forced smile on her face, though she did feel a great deal better.

Vegeta's right eye twitched in annoyance at the sound of Goku's now-cheery voice. The worst part, was that he could tell it was phony, unlike her supposed 'best friend', Bulma. He despised fake people!

"Good morning, Goku, I bet you're starving now! You were starting scare me a bit last night!" said Bulma.

"Aw, I'm sorry, Bulma! I didn't mean to, but you're right, boy am I starving!" exclaimed Goku, rubbing her stomach in emphasis.

With that said, she bent down and reached for a juicy looking piece of bacon that had caught her attention. Vegeta glanced over at Goku, and nearly fell out of his seat from shock at what was in his line of sight. Goku was still clad in her usual orange gi. The same gi she had been wearing yesterday, and with her new body it was an extremely loose fit. When she had bent down, her shirt lowered quite a bit too. Since it was so baggy, it revealed every little detail of Goku's new chest.

Bulma glanced over at Vegeta and pondered, 'Now, why is he staring at Goku like…' She gasped when she saw the reason with her own eyes. She immediately reached over the table, and covered up Goku's exposed flesh as fast as she could muster.

"Um… maybe we should get you some new clothes, Goku," suggested Bulma.

"Why would we do that?" asked Goku, standing up straight again and glancing rather awkwardly at Bulma's hand. "Why are you…? Um, Bulma… could you maybe…? I don't feel comfortable with you touching me there."

Bulma merely slapped her forehead in annoyance, "You know, Goku, sometimes I worry about you," she said, frowning slightly.

"Why?" asked Goku.

"Nevermind… I'll let you borrow some of my clothes, at least until we buy you some that fit," offered Bulma generously.

Bulma stood up from her seat, and took a hold of Goku by the arm. She proceeding with pulling her out of the room to get the deed done.

"B-But, Bulma! I didn't get to eat!" whined Goku childishly.

Vegeta shook his head, and walked off to go train in the gravity room.

"Okay, Goku, put this on," Bulma instructed. She handed Goku a plain navy t-shirt, some shorts that seemed ridiculously small to Goku, and some of Bulma's lingerie. "They should all fit well enough, you're about my size now."

Goku questioningly looked down at the bra and panties she had handed her. Her eyes lingered awhile longer on the bra. She'd taken bras off of ChiChi more times then she could even count, but she didn't exactly know how to put them on. She picked it up and fiddled with one of the straps. She was embarrassed about it, but she had no clue how to adjust the shoulder straps. She didn't know which way made it larger and which way smaller.

"Uh… Bulma-?" began Goku, completely flabbergasted.

Bulma caught on to what Goku was questioning, and quickly instructed her on how to put the lingerie on. Goku went into her bathroom, and closed the door. After about five minutes of trying to put on the bra correctly, she managed to slip it on.

The rest came easily. Goku looked at herself in the mirror and complained, "Bulma, I think these clothes are too tight! I can't move, and they're uncomfortable! Plus, your underwear is giving me a wedgie!"

Bulma let out a sigh, and replied, "Stop whining Goku. I'm sure they're just fine!"

"No, they aren't, I'm suffocating in here!" she continued. "Plus, I look real funny."

"Goku, just come out, and I'll see if they fit, okay?" asked Bulma, beginning to lose her reserve of patience.

"Okay, Bulma," answered Goku, opening the door, and walking out of the bathroom hesitantely.

Bulma paced around her twice and announced, "I don't see anything wrong with them, Goku! They fit just fine. You're just used to that baggy gi of yours. Don't worry, it'll grow on you after awhile!"

Goku tugged on the waistline of her shorts, trying to stretch them out, but it didn't work.

"Bulma?" she inquired.

"Yes, Goku?" replied Bulma.

"I'm hungry," stated Goku.

Bulma merely rolled her eyes, "Really? Well, let's get ya' some food."

Goku, like always, wolfed down plate after plate of food. Surprisingly though, there were left overs. "I guess you don't have as monestrous of an apetite as you did before, now do you, Goku?" joked Bulma. "Well, I take that back a little, you still ate a lot more than any woman on Earth could even attempt to eat."

"Yeah," responded Goku, somewhat dissapointed, but content nonetheless.

'What a relief, at least Goku doesn't eat as much as before. Otherwise, I would probably go bankrupt. One Saiyan, I can handle. Two, now that I'm not sure of,' thought Bulma sarcastically.

Vegeta strode into the room with his shirt off, sweat dripping down his chiseled muscles. Bulma couldn't help, but take in the sight, it wasn't rare, but she just couldn't get enough of it. Goku looked at Bulma in confusion. Bulma, seeing Goku's reaction, turned away from Vegeta immediately.

'What's so interesting to make Bulma stare like that? Vegeta? Naw…' thought Goku, who then turned to look at Vegeta also and scope out what was so darn interesting. She was surprised at how entranced she was by his body. Even the pose he was in made her want to jump on him. What was going on, why couldn't she seem to take her eyes off of him. Not aware of the action, Goku began to lick the top of her lip almost primally, gaining Vegeta's attention.

"What are you staring at Kakarrot?" he questioned in annoyance.

Goku snapped out of her odd trance in an instant. 'Did I just… do what Bulma did!'

"Uh… I wasn't looking at anything!" she exclaimed, her cheeks burning with the embarrassment of her lie. "Um… King Kai was talking to me. I apologize if that looked kind of weird, Vegeta. Hehe… I wasn't staring at you or anything!" she continued frantically, wondering if he could see through her lie, and also wondering why the heck she was so interested in looking at him.

Vegeta merely grunted in response, losing interest quickly and looking away. Goku started to shakily stack up her plates, she couldn't believe that she had just lied to Vegeta. She never lied, it made her feel horrible. When Vegeta spied that her head was turned in the opposite direction. He looked her up and down, then smirked.

'Bulmas clothes look pretty good on her… really good. Feh! I'm doing it again! I have to stop this… this is Kakarrot I'm thinking about! Disgusting!' he thought, utterly repelled.

Bulma, Goku, and Vegeta turned their heads toward the front door at the sound of knocking. They all simultaneously walked to the door. It was a good thing there was such a disturbance. They really needed something to distract them from the tension that was building up in the room.

Bulma opened the door, and she and Goku both gasped in unison. Vegeta merely crossed his arms in indiference. There, standing just beyond the doorway was: Krillin, Master Roshi, Lunch, Yamcha, Puar, Chaoutzu, Tien, Oolong, and even Piccolo. "Um… hey guys… what exactly are all of you doing here?" asked Bulma in bemusement.

"Haha… that's funny, Bulma! We all know that you'd never forget our annual reunion," chimed Krillin joyously. A few others in the group laughed with Krillin.

'That was today?' thought Bulma in near hysterics.

Goku's mouth opened wide in disbelief. Vegeta rolled his eyes.

' This is just typical… everything bad always happens at the worst time!' Vegeta thought, then smirked as an idea popped into his head. 'Actually, This is perfect, Kakarrot's little friends are going to find out that he's a female… hilarious! I can't wait to see this!'

"Uh… of course I didn't forget! How could I do that! I've been waiting for this day for forever!" lied Bulma.

"I guess the food hasn't come yet!" joked Yamcha.

"What?" asked Bulma, confused yet again.

"Goku would be here, and obviously he isn't. Plus, his wife is always the one to bring all of the food!" replied Yamcha.

Goku shuddered slightly at the mention of her former wife.

"Oh! I get it now! Haha… haha…" said Bulma, mustering a fake laugh.

'Great! Just great, this is going to be a mess!' she thought, glancing at Goku sympathetically.

Master Roshi none-to-shyly walked forward and ogled Goku. "Ohhh… hehehe, Bulma, who's your beautiful friend?" he asked, trying to look down poor Goku's shirt. "I don't believe that I've been properly introduced!"

"Yeah, I think I'm getting a nosebleed!" exclaimed Oolong, gazing up Goku's shorts.

Goku gasped, and took a few timid steps backwards.

Vegeta chuckled and said, "Her, she's just Kak…"

"It's my friend Kakay!" blurted out Bulma. "Yeah… it's Kakay, and leave her alone, you perves!"

Bulma then glared at Vegeta, "Vegeta, why don't you get everyone some refreshments?" she hissed in annoyance.

"Why should I?" challenged Vegeta, glancing over at Goku with a sly smile.

Goku immediately down-cast her attention to the floor with rosy cheeks. Her tiny fists were balled in useless determination. Vegeta noticed her trembling slightly. He ran his fingers through his hair, then finally aquiesced, "Fine, it's better than being stuck around all of those clowns."

"What do you want?" he demanded, barely able to stand the embarrassment of waiting on these fools. "I'm the Prince of all Saiyans," he muttered as he walked out of the room, "why am I doing her a favor?"

After Vegeta had left, Krillin gasped, and then pointed at Goku, "Y-you have a tail!"

Everyone in the room focused their attention directly on Goku's new-found appendage. Goku glanced over at Bulma pleadingly, and Bulma replied, "She's Vegeta's long-lost little sister. Don't worry she's nothing like him!"

Everyone kept their eyes on Goku in shock, "So, Piccolo, you actually came this year!" spoke Bulma, eager to change the subject.

"I'm only doing it for Gohan," answered Piccolo.

"Oh, I see… well, thank you for coming anyways!" said Bulma.

Meanwhile, Vegeta placed the drink glasses next to each other on a large platter. 'I'm missing one…' he thought, stressing his mind to deliver which one was absent. 'Ah… Kakarrot didn't tell me what she wanted. I guess I should ask her." 

Vegeta strode back into the room, and up to Goku, "Kakarrot, what did you want again?" questioned Vegeta.

Goku seemed surprised that Vegeta had even thought as musch as to ask her, "I guess I'll have a water, thank you," she replied with small smile.

Bulma opened her mouth wide, and slapped her head in annoyance, "You knuckleheads! Did you even notice what you just said?" yelled Bulma.

"Huh?" mumbled Goku, she then realized their mistake and shouted, "Oh no!" slapping her hand to her mouth in dread.

Vegeta strained to try and hold in a laugh, "Whoops, my bad," he sneered.

"Goku, is that really you, buddy?" asked Krillin in disbelief. All eyes, once again, were on Goku.
