Dragon Ball/Z/GT Fan Fiction ❯ Short, Dark, Pointy-Haired Man Banned From Disney ❯ Tomorrowland and the Animal Kingdom ( Chapter 5 )

[ P - Pre-Teen ]

Chapter 5

By Elbereth in April

When the parade ended, they continued on to Tomorrowland. Goku was once again called upon to use his Instant Transmission to get them to the front of the line for Space Mountain. This was another roller coaster.

An employee looked at the two boys. "I'm not sure you're tall enough. . ." he began.

His coworker elbowed him desperately in the ribs. "No, you fool," he hissed. "Those are the ones we were warned about!"

The first employee turned pale. "Enjoy the ride!" He waved them through.

Everyone greatly enjoyed this ride as well. Once it was over, Piccolo suggested, "How about Alien Encounter now?"

They sat down in a large room. All the lights went out. Then came a strange sound--as if a large creature were breathing. With a shriek, Goten and Trunks powered up and destroyed the alien's cage in the middle of the room, singeing everyone in the first dozen rows and melting the seats.

The lights came back on. The boys were hustled outside by their parents, the others following.

"What possessed you to do that?" Chi-Chi demanded.

"It was an alien!" Goten explained, still clearly alarmed. "It could have killed everybody!"

"It wasn't a real alien!"

"It could have been!" He had a point. It wasn't like aliens who wanted to take over the world didn't show up every other month or so.

"But there was no ki reading."

"It could have been an android," Trunks said.

"Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin next?" Bulma put in brightly.

They walked to the Buzz Lightyear attraction. Trunks was starting to feel embarrassed. "Hn. Goten, you should have known it wasn't a real alien."

Goten flushed. "I didn't think it was. But you did."

"No I didn't."

"Yes, you did!"

Vegeta lifted one boy in each hand by their collars. They gulped and shut up. Vegeta put them back down.

When they made it through the line, they got in little cars and were told their goal was to shoot aliens with a light gun.

"There!" Goten said, feeling vindicated. "I bet the other one was real!"

Piccolo and Gohan, who had ended up with the boys, rolled their eyes. "No, these are fake aliens, too."

"Yeah, baka," Trunks sneered.

Then the cars started up. Fake aliens began to pop up. "Huh," Trunks huffed. "I'm not using some sissy gun." And he proceeded to start ki blasting them. Goten let out a whoop and followed suit.

In the next car, Vegeta smirked wickedly. "This ride's toast now anyway," he said, and started firing his own energy attacks.

Bulma began to scold him when Goku grinned and let loose a Kamehameha wave, taking out the entire back wall.

"That's it," Chi-Chi groaned. "After this, we're going to the Animal Kingdom before we get caught."

"Good idea," Bulma murmured as a Big Bang Attack removed the roof.

They rode the bus over to Disney's newest park, the Animal Kingdom. They showed their tickets and hand-stamp to get inside. "I can't believe you made such a fuss over getting your hand stamped, Vegeta," Goku grinned. "It's just ink."

Vegeta scowled and ignored him.

They followed a path around a lovely waterfall and over a bridge. There they stopped short and looked at the view. Before them was a huge--I mean enormously huge--tree, with animals carved in its trunk.

Goku began to power up in panic. "It's the evil tree of might!" Before anyone could stop him, he had gone Super Saiyan Two and blown it to bits.

"No, no," Piccolo scolded, "it was a fake tree! It was just there as a monument, like the castle in the Magic Kingdom."

"Oh." Goku looked sheepish. "Oops."

Vegeta laughed so hard he almost fell over.

Goku teleported them back to the entrance.

Just then a smiling photographer came up to them. "Care for a group photo? You can buy one for only $12.99."

Vegeta, wearing his most threatening expression, took the camera from the man and crumpled it in one hand.

The man looked peeved. "You could have just said no."

"As if I would allow my photo to be taken with Kakkarot!" Vegeta sneered.

"Onward," Gohan said hastily. "Wait, where's Master Roshi?"

Piccolo's ears picked up his voice saying, "I think a wolf-skin mini-skirt would be just right for you, Jane. And really, don't you think Tarzan's a bit too rugged for a pretty thing like you?"

This time it was Chi-Chi who dragged him away.

Back down the path and over the bridge, innocently walking around scattered chunks of artificial tree that had flown even this far. "So, what shall we do first?"

"The Kali Water Rapids ride!" Goten shouted. "And Dinoland!"

"And the Lion King show," Trunks said, after Vegeta nudged him. "My family really likes The Lion King."

They all looked at Vegeta, who was looking the other direction. Bulma giggled.

"The map says the show's not for a little while yet, so let's go ahead with the water ride," Gohan suggested.

So off they went to the Asia section of the park. Cutting in line once again, they were quickly seated in the raft and going around the "river." Everything was fine until they crossed under the bridge where people could push buttons to spray water on the people in the rafts.

Vegeta's expression darkened. "How dare they deliberately soak the Prince of all Saiyans!"

"Uh oh," the group groaned.

"Gallic Gun!" He fired ki blasts through the hearts of five different tourists, also wiping out the bridge itself, which deposited over a dozen more into the water.

"Vegeta!"

"How many wishes can we get with the dragonballs again?" Goten asked.

Next was an instant teleport to the Lion King show, which everyone watched, and Vegeta secretly deeply enjoyed. Afterwards, he nudged Trunks again. Trunks sighed.

"I want a picture of Dad and I with Simba," Trunks announced.

Everyone looked suspicious again, but didn't want to provoke Vegeta to more destruction. "OK," Bulma said agreeably. "Let's go look for him."

After hunting for about 15 minutes, Vegeta got impatient. He rose into the air high enough that he could see the whole park. "There they are!" he called happily. He floated back down.

A crowd of tourists had gathered to film his flight. He smirked and flexed his muscles upon landing. "I am Vegeta, Prince of all Saiyans!" They clapped.

Bulma dragged him away.

Shortly afterwards, they found Simba, Rafiki, and Zazu. Vegeta barely contained his excitement as he grabbed Trunks' hand and pushed his way through the line around the characters. Bulma and Chi-Chi both took photos of Vegeta and Trunks with each of the Lion King stars. Vegeta also got Simba's autograph.

Goku, Piccolo, and Goten walked a short distance away before they died laughing. Trunks blushed. "Papa, I'm so embarrassed," he muttered.
