Dragon Ball/Z/GT Fan Fiction ❯ Captain Ginyu, the matchmaker ❯ The wrath of Bra ( Chapter 2 )

Goten knocked at the door, and to his bad luck, Bra answered it. When Bra saw Goten standing at the door, Goten got a good yelling at Bra, telling him that his stupid brother was back at his stupid house having a stupidly good time. By the time Bra finished, Goten's hair was a mess. Goten yelled back at Bra, saying that he didn't come here to be yelled at by a spoiled brat like her. Bra and Goten never seemed to get along ever since the minute they laid their eyes on each other. Bra told Goten that he should've used his cell phone instead of flying 500 miles just to get here. “Its called common sense,” Bra insulted, “Which you clearly don't have!” Bra waited until Goten's response, trying to see how good of a comeback Goten might think of. Goten lowered his voice to a level that couldn't be heard by anyone except Bra and calmly told her that he just wanted to hang with Trunks and have a good time. Bra looked at Goten, thinking of another insult. She said, “Wow, Goten! You came here for two reasons! I bet your dad was congratulating you on that, because this must be the first time you ever did something like that!”

Goten had enough. He shoved Bra, and she fell backward. “You better make way next time.” Then Goten stepped on her like a doormat. Ginyu saw the whole argument with his bird's-eye view of Capsule Corp. “Man, the need to learn a lesson…the hard way.” Ginyu started laughing evilly, but quietly so nobody would catch him. Just then, Trunks came down and tried to greet Goten the “cool” way. “What up yo?” Trunks asked. Goten simply said “No.” and both went out to meet some of Goten's friends around the city. While Goten and Trunks were out, Ginyu hatched a “good” but perfectly “evil” plan to make Bra and Goten learn their lesson.

While Ginyu was perfecting his plan to lure Goten and Bra somewhere, Vegeta and Bra continued their little fight again. It was just after midnight when Trunks and Goten returned. Vegeta turned his attention to Trunks just after they came home (he was STILL fighting Bra) and started to yell at him for poor reasons. Then, Vegeta noticed Goten was still around, so he yelled at Goten, asking him why he is still in his house. Goten told Vegeta that he was having a sleepover with Trunks. Vegeta stared at him for a long time, the expression on his face looking like he would explode any moment now. Then, he told Goten to return to his business. “Whew!” Goten breathed a sigh of relief. After that, Vegeta dismissed everyone from this little “conversation” they were having. Trunks told Goten that Vegeta started his addiction to various drugs just recently. Goten told Trunks that his dad is crazy, which made Bra start yelling at Goten, saying that Goten's dad is so stupid, he thinks red means go and greens means stop on a stoplight. Goten's temper rose quickly. He kicked Bra in the stomach, which knocked the breath out of her. Trunks and Goten went up to Trunks' room, leaving Bra alone. Ginyu thought Bra and Goten really do need a lesson. He got up and said “I will do ANYTHING to set these kids straight! I will become… The MATCHMAKER!”

If we had more props, I would've given Ginyu a cape, some underpants to wear on the outside of his pants, and a stupid costume that resembles something that Superman would wear, except the letter in the front would be a “G” for “Ginyu” in the triangle on Ginyu's costume.

Anyway, back to the story, if Ginyu would've screamed louder, everyone in the Capsule Corp. building would've heard Ginyu (Nice way to blow your cover, stupid.) Oh yeah, while he was screaming his head off about the whole “Matchmaker” idea, Ginyu was doing a few dumb poses. He could never resist.

When the sun came up

They were sleeping in

Sunk inside their blankets

Sprawled across the bed and they

Were dreaming…

(Those were lyrics to Existentialism on Prom Night by Straylight Run)

When Vegeta woke up, it was 10:30 in the morning. He screamed his head off, waking everyone in Capsule Corp. Vegeta began yelling at Bulma, Bra, Goten and Trunks about sleeping in. Goten asked Trunks what the usual time is to wake up. Trunks replied, “At 8:45”

“Pfft! We have to wake up at 6:15 - This is the first time I ever slept in!”

Just to shut Goten up, Bra said “What a loser” to Goten.

Before Goten retaliated, Vegeta said “Touch her, and I'll kill you.”

“I'd like to see you try!” Goten taunted.

Vegeta, ignoring Goten, began going through the mail. He looked at an envelope suspiciously, which had Goten's name on it. Shrugging it off, he threw the envelope at Goten, who was eating some cereal. Goten caught the envelope without any effort, and he didn't even lift his eyes from his cereal! Vegeta continued going through the mail, and saw one was also for Bra. Vegeta kindly handed it over to her, and Bra took it from him and said “Thank you daddy!”

Vegeta simply grunted in reply. Goten and Bra simultaneously opened their envelopes and unfolded a piece of line paper covered with chicken scratch on it. Both letters read

“Meet me at the Orange Star City Park at downtown. Yours truly, your secret admirer.”

Goten and Bra took a while to decipher the “hidden code.” Goten wondered why someone wanted to meet him in a place that's never or hardly ever crowded. Was this some kind of plan of Ginyu, The Matchmaker? It sure was.

Goten saw that there was a back part to both Bra's and his letter. Goten told Bra to read the backside of her letter, which she amazingly did. Goten read “Meet me there at 3:00 PM.” Bra took a look at Goten's letter and shouted “You have the same one as mine!”

“Who knows, maybe we are on double-dates.”

“Yeah, maybe.”

Goten couldn't stand it anymore. He wanted 3PM to come quick so he could hang out with this girl in the park. The clock seemed to snail by; every second turned into a minute. Even Ginyu was anxious to initiate his plan. Finally 2:30 came, and Ginyu snuck out of the house. When he was out he raced over to the Satan City Park. Many people were staring at Ginyu not only because he was an alien, but because he was skipping while laughing and singing over to the park. By 2:45, Goten and Bra set out for the park. Despite the summer heat, Goten was wearing his usual outfit; blue jeans that go all the way to his feet, and a long-sleeved white shirt. Goten and Bra were shoving and fighting all the way to the park. Goten accidentally shoved Bra into an innocent bystander. She said “Hey, watch where you're pushing your sister!” With that, Bra retaliated “He's not my brother! He's not even related to me, and I'm proud of it!”

Finally, Goten and Bra made it to the park. The park looked deserted, despite being in a city with over 200,000 people in it. Goten sat on a park bench, waiting for his “secret admirer.” Finally, “The Matchmaker” appeared out of nowhere (possibly from behind a tree), and tapped Goten's shoulder from the back. Goten turned and saw Captain Ginyu with a hat on saying “The matchmaker”. Goten asked Ginyu where his secret admirer is. Ginyu reassured Goten and told him that she's on her way. Then, Ginyu tried to mediate Goten and Bra out of their long-lasting problem that lasted since they laid their eyes on each other. He said that Goten and Bra have been problematic to each other for too long and they must find a way to make up. Both of them didn't cooperate and Goten and Bra told Ginyu that they'd never be friends in a billion or even a trillion years. Ginyu said “Well, you're going to learn it the hard way!”

Ginyu became extremely excited, and he did the dance of joy (a series of wild poses) until Goten finally calmed him down.

“What do you mean `the hard way'?” Goten asked.

“Like what Devo says; `nobody gets their way…until they whip it!” Ginyu simply replied. Wasting no time, Ginyu did the “Preparation Poses” (another series of stupid poses) and finally shouted “CHANGE…NOW!”
