Dragon Ball/Z/GT Fan Fiction ❯ Giving In ❯ Chapter Five ( Chapter 5 )

Disclaimer: I hate doing these things…especially since I have to admit that I don't own Veggie-boy or Trunks. They're both good-looking men, for cartoon characters. *Sigh* Oh well, at least I know that I don't own DBZ and that my imagination can lead me on my wildest dreams when I'm writing anything that even remotely has to do with Veggie-boy or Trunks. Which reminds me, I'm going to be doing a Trunks story sometime soon and yes, Vegeta and Bulma are a couple in the story. So sue me, I do write occasional V/B fics. And did you know that every computer in my house has all of the DBZ cast names in it? Isn't that cool? Anyway, on with the story.

Chapter Five

"Ok Trunks, since your no-good father didn't find a singer for the band and since Eighteen plays the guitar better than I do, I'm going to be the singer." Looking up from several sheets of paper she was holding, Kathi studied the lavender haired teen intently until he blushed then laughed and motioned for the others to come close. "Alright then, I have a song here for us to play, then sing, and I want to know what you guys think of it."

Shrugging, Eighteen played around with her electric guitar then played a couple of experimental chords on it. "As long as I'm not singing it then I don't really care."

"Great, because this is going to be our first song if it turns out how I want it to turn out."

Trunks sighed then tapped a rhythm out on his drums before looking over at Goten. "Hey Goten…do you get this weird feeling that we're going to sound really bad playing a song she wrote?"

Nodding, Goten fiddled with his bass then set it in his lap and strummed it a few times before smiling happily. "Finally…I finally got it in tune."

"Hello, are you guys paying attention to me?" Snapping her fingers several times, she sighed then got up and whacked the two boys on their heads. "Listen up, I don't know what chords you're going to want to play this on so pay attention to how the song goes."

"Right."

"Fine."

"Good, now then…" Going over the first words to the song, she memorized them before singing them loud enough for everyone to hear. "I used to walk with you and dance upon the sands. Though the sun blazed untrue you wondered where I was. I saw the devil tonight and he often called my name. I saw heaven tonight and am still far from saved. You used to talk with me and wipe my fears away. I used to trust in you until you went away. Fire burns the devil tonight as he calls my name. Life flows through my veins while blood runs through my lips. And when you walked with me my world was complete. My life is nothing now, that I'm back on my feet." Trailing off, she looked up from the song then blinked in surprise when everyone looked at her in surprise. "What?"

Recovering first, Trunks smiled then clapped loudly, causing everyone else to come out of their trances and clap as well. "Did you write that yourself?"

"Yes sir now why did you look so surprised?"

"Because that song was awesome Miss Kat."

"Great, I sang an awesome song. Just wait until I get through the next six songs I have written down here. Now, are you guys going to play this song or what?"

Nodding, the others tuned their instruments then waited for her to start her next song. Somehow, they knew this was going to be a long day.

Walking quietly upstairs, Vegeta leaned against the doorway and listened to them playing along with her singing before snorting and clapping sarcastically when they finished. "Congratulations for sounding like a bunch of weaklings."

"And you think you could do better?" Lifting a speculative brow, she held out the song sheets to him then shrugged and started pulling them back when he growled softly and grabbed them from her.

"Move out of my way woman." Taking her spot, he looked over the songs then chose the original song she had started out with. "This is very…me."

"Then by all means try to sing it better than I did."

"Fine."
