Chapter 3: Lets meet Vegeta!

================================================================ ==========

Capsule Corporation, the technological hub of Satan City, within this structure resided the richest family and the second most powerful full-blooded Saiyan.

"Onna, have you fixed it yet!" Vegeta scowled irritably towards where the Gravity Room resided, he had been told by his wife about Ranma's life lessons Via his blue haired wife courtesy of the grapevine, he was NOT in a happy mood. *I will take this Tatewaki Kuno, and slowly teach the bastard the lessons of PAIN, DEATH and FEAR! I sense that Ranma is a saiyan, most probably that baka Kakarot's brother's child, as such it would be beneath me, not to avenge one of MY subjects, Ohhhh when I get my hands on that Hawaiian clad baka too I will indeed have fun, especially if he so much as TOUCHES a single strand upon my or my son's head! *

The smile bordering upon Vegeta's face was borderline psychotic; Bra and Trunks looked at their father and felt a trickle of dread skittering down their spines.

Bra looked to her brother warilly, she did not like the look upon her father's face, true she was a daddy's girl, but seeing that predatorily smirk gave her goosebumps. "Brother, Dad is REALLY starting to scare the heck outta me" She whispered to Trunks in a bare whisper

Trunks nodded his purple bangs getting in his face; he angrily brushed them away from his eyes "I know, I never seen THAT kind of smile ever, save when he was under the influence from Babidi and became a Majin" Trunks whispered lowly in return to his sister's inquiry.

Both children looked warilly at their father, Vegeta grinned softly "You Brats know I would NEVER EVER do what Genma and Soun did right, I like you more than that." He said simply to his children, he was still uncomfortable stating his true inner feelings out loud, in truth he loved his children as he loved his wife, the incident with Majin Buu and the other instances still weighed heavily upon the proud saiyan princes mind

It was then the TV was on a rock show, the main singer was a single artist although he had a back up band, the redhead smiled slightly "Here's a tribute to one of the greats of rock 'n' roll Alice Coopper"

With that the redhead broke into a rendition of Alice Cooper's Frankenstein

Vegeta looked at the TV and sweatdropped "What the HFIL is that guy taking, he looks like a damn devil worshiper!" The irritated Prince said obtrusively

Trunks and Bra sweatdropped, it was Bra that saved the soon to be Ki roasted TV "Daddy, how can you say that, Retsam is the most honest artist there, and no he is not a Satanist, he is a shock-rocker like David Bowie and well Alice Cooper and stuff."

Vegeta's eyebrow twitched "That gimp that played Jareth in Labyrinth, he looked like a gay dressed like that!" Vegeta muttered unhelpfully

There was a whap to the back of Vegeta's head; Vegeta winced slightly as he saw Bulma as he turned around

Bulma's left eyebrow was twitching "David Bowie is not gay Vegeta, sometimes I wonder what I saw in you?" She said in mock anger

Vegeta smirked "Well I am better looking than this Jareth, and I definitely am better looking than Ludo or Sir digmus"

He retorted smugly

Bulma crossed her arms against her chest and smirked "Whatever you say Hoggle"

Vegeta twitched and went red in the face "I am not that pug ugly little bastard gnome" Vegeta said incessed, although he mentally sent a thought to his wife

*Please for the love of Kami-Sama, no saying my pet name in front of the kids, I will not be held responsible for taking you right here right now! *

Bulma's face flushed slightly as she made a rather cute embarrassed noise "The GR is fixed, your Royal Shortness" *Vegeta, maybe tonight, the GR after the kids are in bed? * She thought hopefully

Vegeta strode off smugly *Midnight, bring the wine, and yourself, we'll make a night of it*

The GR door shut, Bra and Trunks looked to their mother and double blinked at the shade of red staining her cheeks, Trunks whispered "Thank god I am not like Mom or Dad!"

Bra nodded her head "Indeed, they are weird, I just hope I don't turn out like that"

Both children shuddered and as one they thought *Our parents are SEX MANIACS! *

---------------------------------------------------------------------- --------

Ranma looked up to the stars from the Son household roof, he was not really thinking of anything; it was then he saw it.

Flying in the sky was a green armored man with a red mohawk, the man looked at Ranma atomically then flew on, Ranma blinked hardly crediting his own eyes, when he looked again the strange man was gone. "Man I gotta get my eyes checked, coulda sworn I saw a guy flying." He muttered tersely to himself.

From his position in the sky Android #16 blinked his green eyes in retrospect. "Unknown subject at Son Home, threat level non consequential." The Android stated to himself, it had been many years since he was fixed due to his sacrifice in the Cell Saga, a kindly human had reconstructed his body after finding the necessary blueprints from the wreckage from Dr Gero's laboratory.

He landed softly within the small grove, which he claimed his own; coincidentally it was the same forest where Krillin and Goku unleashed the Dragon within the Dragonball Timeline

The stoic nature loving Android looked at the deer that approached "Hello Ranko, have some berries " He knelt by the deer and fed the beautiful creature calmly

Years around this otherwise silent giant made the female deer less skittish, it approached her friend and nuzzled his cheek after taking the fare from the giant Android's hands and looked into the green eyes with doe brown and scampered off into the underbrush

------------------------------------------------------------- -----------

Ranma sneezed slightly as he looked to his left "I coulda sworn someone was talking bout me?" Shrugging his shoulders Ranma went inside and looked at Goku "Goku, I could have sworn I saw a giant man fly, he had green armor and a red Mohawk" Ranma said bluntly

Gohan had a neutral face as he heard this although he held his hand to his heart "Sixteen?" He muttered softly

Goku looked serious slightly "Are you sure you saw a guy like that Ranma, this is very important, he is...an old friend of my son's " He said gently to the young boy

Ranma nodded "Although I couldn't sense anything from him, that was damn weird"

Goku had a wide grin as he rubbed the back of his head "Sure ya wouldn't, he's an Android that went against his programming and didn't want to kill me " Goku said happily knowing now his son's friend was back

Ranma sweatdropped *Who would ever wanna kill a guy like Goku? *

-----------------------------------------

Frieza, Cell, Dr Myuu, Dr Gero, Dr Wheelo, and various other bad guys in HFIL sneezed violently

-----------------------------------------

Gohan looked at Ranma slightly hopeful "Are you sure it was Sixteen?"

Ranma blinked "Huh that's the guy's name, sheesh and I thought your name was strange!"

Gohan sweatdropped "Yeah well, most Saiyans are named after food "

Ranma facefaulted "Geez and I thought Jokesenkyo Amazons were weird naming their kids after hair care products "

Pan smirked "Wait till you meet the Brief family "

Ranma looked at Pan irrudiouslly "There's a Brief family?" *Ok and now it's official, there must be a Kami that thinks up really stupid and embarrassing names! * Ranma thought darkly

Chi-Chi looked at Ranma "I do hope you don't bring home any dragons or other exotic monsters, it was bad enough with Goku and Gohan!" She shook her head long sufferinglly albeit god naturally

Ranma swallowed "Pantyhose Taro turns into a yeti riding a bull and eel with octopus tentacles and wings, albeit he is no friend of mine, more like a constant if infrequent thorn in my side, always trying to beat me so the old letch freak Happosai will change his name"

Everyone sweatdropped at that.

------------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------------------------------

Somewhere in back in Nerima, Pantyhose Taro just sneezed. "Man I hope I'm coming down with something." He said it to himself. "Now to look for the old freak and force him to change my name." And the monster changing young man took off to look for a certain panty stealing old pervert.

--------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------

"Maybe Bulma and Vegeta would like to adopt this Pantyhose Taro guy." Goten laughed made a suggestion.

"Yeah, then maybe he wouldn't feel so bad about his name." Gohan joined in on the joke.

"Sure if they don't mind having a kid that turns into a giant monster when splashed with water." Ranma wasn't feeling really comfortable when Gohan and Goten are making a joke about Pantyhose Taro.

"Don't worry, if I know Vegeta, he would probably think of it as a blessing." Goku reassured Ranma, letting him know that they mean no hard feelings.

"Okay that's enough talking for the night." Chichi decided it's time end this conversation. "It's time for bed and we need to be at Capsule Corporation by tomorrow morning."

Everyone else said their goodnights but Goku and Ranma waited a little longer.

"Goku, are you sure about this?" Ranma asked the Good Saiyan about the situation.

"I understand that you are nervous, Ranma." Goku placed a comforting hand on Ranma's shoulder, "but once we get to Capsule Corporation I promise you that everything will be okay." He did his best to put the pigtailed martial artist's mind at ease. "Now why don't you get a good night's sleep because he have a big day tomorrow."

Ranma nodded in agreement and he and Goku left for bed.

------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------

Elsewhere there's a small pink house on a deserted island in the middle of ocean. A certain female Android and her former bald monk husband were in training once they meet the NWC. Not to long ago, Chichi called their house and told them about Ranma's story.

This did not bode 18 very well. Sure she maybe a big believer of women's rights but she draws the line of belittling males. "These Female Chinese Amazons give women everywhere a bad name." She told Krillin who was doing his best of blocking his wife's attacks.

"Well 18 if there's anyone who can set them straight it's you." Krillin complimented the former android killer. 18 maybe stronger than him and mostly likely break Krillin into two but he loves her any way.

And 18 may think that Krillin will never beat her in a fight but she loves him just the same because he treats her like a human being. And that's the lesson that she will teach Shampoo once they meet.

On the sidelines, Roshi, Baba, Marron, and Turtle where watching Krillin and 18 doing their sparring match.

"Wow Momma and Papa are really duking it out there." Marron was still amazed by the energy that her parents still have after all these years.

"Well they have to be strong if they are going to fight this NWC group." Turtle supplied Marron the answer.

"I'm still surprised that you decided to join in this game Baba." Roshi was talking to his sister, Fortuneteller Baba, "considering that you never fought in your life."

"I maybe not be a strong fighter like you and Z-Warriors," Baba stated while still watching Krillin and 18, "but I am a strong believer of fighting for what you believe in." She made her point. "Besides, this will be a great excuse to settle a score that Amazon Brat Cologne." (Hey, Baba is a few hundred years older than Cologne so that makes Cologne a brat.)

"Yes and I'm going to teach that lecherous midget named Happosai a lesson that he'll never forget." Roshi was stewing his own comments about the dirty little old pervert. "It still riles me up that someone like him butcherized martial arts and uses his own students for his own evil and selfish purposes." The old master's temper was slowly rising. "I maybe a dirty old pervert but I even I have some moral standards."

"Of course my dear little brother," Baba agreed with Roshi, "at least your training methods never involves peeping through women's houses and stealing." She had to give her turtle hermit brother some credit; his training maybe harsh but at least it's honest and unlike Happosai, Roshi always treated his students like family.

Marron and Turtle nodded in agreement and return watching Krillin and 18.

-------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------

Morning came and Ranma and the Sons just arrived at Capsule Corporations.

"Whoa!" Ranma was taken back by the size of the building. "This place is huge!"

A perpetually scowling face and short body opened the door and scowled at Goku. "This better be damn good Kakarot, you damn well woke me up with your Ki signature."

The saiyan prince growled out, now there is nothing more DANGEROUS than a grumpy tire Vegeta.

Ranma blinked and started searching for the garbage can and shrugged and turned to Gohan. "Where's his garbage can?"

The Son's blinked and Pan giggled slightly. "That's Vegeta, not Oscar the grouch, although the similarities are surprising!"

Vegeta deathglared Ranma, "I am not a damn Muppet, you are this close to being incinerated, speak now or die!" Vegeta placed a millimeter between thumb and forefinger to show the young Saotome just how close to a royal beatdown he was going to cop for that rather below the belt comment

Ranma swallowed nervously as he sensed that this guy's powerlevel was greater than his was, sure he may like a challenge but he was not suicidal to THAT degree...yet.

Ranma looked Vegeta in the eye determinedly. "Saotome Ranma that's me!" Ranma said brashly.

Vegeta looked him over seriously, "Ok since I know about your past, I will monogamously allow this first slur against me pass, do so again and you will wish that your mother never gave birth to you."

Ranma nodded readily eager to appease this dynamo of anger

"Onna is the Artificial Amma ready?" He yelled behind his back at his wife.

Ranma blinked, *Artificial Amma? *

It was Bulma's voice that retorted, "How many times must I tell you Veg-head, Don't call #18 a wind up toy, she is Krillin's wife and my friend, for Kami's sake!"

Vegeta shrugged unconcernedly, he returned his attentions towards Ranma. "Well brat, why don't you come inside"

Vegeta stated diplomatically for him at least. He showed the Son's inside and glanced pointedly at Goku. "I am getting my rest, I don't want to be disturbed unless there is someone to be tortured!"

With that edict Vegeta stormed off.

Ranma winced, "Who does he think he is, a prince?" He said angrily at Vegeta's lack of concern

Goku grinned, "Yep that's about the size of it, you just met the prince of an entire race of people."

Ranma facefaulted at that response and clamored up and blinked, "I was being sarcastic!"

Goku blinked, "Is that something I can eat?"

Ranma looked sidelong at Goku, "What's 2 plus 2?"

Goku grinned, "That's easy, the answer is five!"

Ranma sweatdropped, "No the correct answer is four." *Ok he is nice, but boy is he dumb! *

Ranma met with the Briefs; he was weirded out and looked at Bulma, "Seriously, your naming your kids after underwear is screwy, Geez with the rack you and your daughter has, hell Happosai would be dying to get his mitts on you both and steal your underwear." Ranma said in a disturbed tone.

A shiver of disgust trickled down Bra's spine, "Ew grody old men touching me, I think not, if it were Goten however.."

She cast a brow at the demi-Saiyan in question that gulped and ran out making an excuse, "I think Mom's calling."

Ranma snickered, "Chicken." He muttered under his breath.

Goten yelled back, "Better being a Live Chicken, than a Dead Duck, no way am I getting in Vegeta's bad books, I do NOT have a deathwish, by courting HIS little girl!"

Vegeta smirked and bellowed out, "And now there is proof that there IS intelligence within the Son Family, I give to you Son Goten!"

Vegeta was elbowed in the ribs by his wife, "Shut up and screw me already!" She yelled angrily.

Ranma clapped his hands over his ears, "I did so not hear THAT!" He muttered slightly traumatized as he shot a sympathetic glance to Trunks and Bra. "What are your parents, Sex Maniacs?" He said wincing slightly as he lowered his hands from his ears

Both nodded and winced.

And that was how Ranma met the Brief family.

---------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------

Well Ranma's first meeting with the Briefs family went pretty well to say the least. Now his next stop is Kame's House. Well this goes well as the last one? And how will Ranma react when Roshi tells everyone the true meaning of Anything Goes? Find out next time on Battle Clash.
