Dragon Ball/Z/GT Fan Fiction ❯ Summer Days ❯ Hotel Madness ( Chapter 3 )
"It's Caliente Island!!" cried Marron and she quickly reached in the compartment over her head for her hat ready to dash off the plane. The other's immediatly glanced out their windows and through the whisp of the white clouds was the island in all its beauty. The sun light cascaded upon it like a dream world lost in the ocean that covered its shores. Hours later the plane landed upon the pavement and came slowly to a stop. When the word was given everyone in the air craft stood and began gathering their belongings as a large crowd took over the aisle. People squeezed and shoved trying to make elbow room as they groaped for their luggage on board. Gokan squeezed through the crowd and made his way towards Angel and helped her with her bags. "Mind carrying mine too there Gokan?" Bra smiled jokingly as she smaked her pink gum and just as she said that, Goten appeared and replied, "Here I got it hun." and she handed him her bags as she responded, "You're a babe."
And one by one everybody stepped down the stair walk and onto the ground. Pan emerged with her sunglasses ready, "Oh Trunks it's beautiful!!" she clapped with glee. Trunks then too emerged from the plane piled with his one suitcase and her six bags. He struggled behind her off the plane trying to breath from the purse that strangled his neck as he carried the many other heavy bags. Pan continued to breath in the fresh air carrying nothing but her camera as she exclaimed, "It's wonderful! It's fresh! It's fabulous! It's -"
"It's the air port hun!" interrupted Trunks in a low unenthused tone, "I think the smog is screwing up my eyesight. I can't see straight ahead of me...or maybe it's your giant grey bag I got here!" he added sarcastically. Pan rolled her eyes, "Oh honestly try and appreciate the surroundings for once." Trunks dropped the mound of bags that consumed him. "What do you have in here?!" cried Trunks, "We're only staying for the weekend!! I swear if you brought that mammoth hair dryer..." and his voice trailed as he opened her largest bag. Pan gasped and screamed as she ran to him and tried to stop him from opening it but it was too late. Slowly Trunks frowned when he brought out a yellow thong bikini and a tiny triangle top. He glanced at her and shrieked, "Where's the rest of it?!" Embarrased, Pan immediatly snatched it away from him and stuffed it back in her bag as she replied, "I wanted to surprise you." but Trunks pointed to the bathing suit in the bag and asked in a shocking tone, "You weren't gonna actually wear that on the beach were you?!" Pan stood straight up face to face with him and replied with her nose in the air, "And what if I was?" Trunks shook his head, "Uh uh, no! You're not wearing that on the beach of this island! You'll have men drooling after you halfway back to the rental car. It's not happening!" and Pan laughed, "And what's so bad about that? Insecure are we?" Trunks grabbed her wrist and pulled her close as he whispered, "This is our vacation. I don't care who's here, you're gonna be mine this weekend! No one elses! I dont wanna have to shake other men off of you with a stick! You're with me here!" and those words touched her as she placed a tender hand against his face, "Aw baby. Well if you feel that way about it, I'll just stick with the regular two piece..." and she glanced down at the yellow bikini in the bag and added with a wink, "and wear that in the hotel room." A smile slowly appeared on his face and he quickly picked up all the bags, grabbed her hand and jerked her with him as he exclaimed, "We have to hurry before our reservations in that hotel get pushed aside!!"

"You lost our reservations?!?!" cried Krillen from behind the front dest in the lobby at the Marriot Hotel. The tall lanky sharp dressed man replied with dignity, "We were having computer problems earlier. We're sorry for the inconvenience but-" and Vegeta squeezed through the flaberghasted gang up next to Krillen and said with anger in his tone to the man behind the counter, "So where are we suppose to sleep for the night? Where we gonna put all our stuff?!"
And the clerk began roamaging through his computer files and replied, "We have one room on the fifth floor that's not being occupied. I can put you down for in there. It's nothing much but it's a place to sleep and set your stuff down till we get this problem resolved."
"All of us in one small room?!?!" cried Juuhachigou who squeezed next to Krillen at the front counter. And the clerk nodded, "I'll have Jeffrey bring up your luggage." The tall man then chimed his bell on the desk and a short young man emerged from the elevator dressed in a maroon outfit ready to help them in carrying some bags. Fustrated and filled to the brim with attitudes, the Z-gang all dropped their bags at once and left towards the elevator leaving the one luggage man alone with legions of bags and suit cases. The young man glanced at the clerk who rolled his eyes and stepped out from behind his desk to help the bell boy with the bags.

Disgust over came them, "Oh my god." exclaimed Lunch as she froze at the door way of their room. It was old and resembled a jail house cell. The furniture was made of old wood that didnt look very sturdy and dark like it was once burnt. The white painting on the walls were peeling revealing the crusted cement behind it and damp leeks in the ceiling. The floor was deprived of carpet revealing an old chipped wooden floor with stains and mildew. The one mirror that stood from the decreped dusty dresser was smeared and gave a poor reflection of the room that smelled of sulfer and rust. "I dare not look at the bathroom." replied Videl as she analyzed the beds dressed with wrinkled white and black stained sheets and small flat pillows. The room was humid and needed to be aired out so Chichi opened a dirty window with all her might allowing some breeze to flow in. She slapped her hands together releaving herself of the dust and dirt from what she just touched as she said, "Well I guess it just needs a little spring cleaning." and all of them looked at her with crazed stares. Videl reached into her purse and brought out a hankerchief and wiped the dresser top with it revealing under the mounds of grey dust a golden shine. "Well it was once beautiful." she replied, "Just needs a womans touch, that's all."
"Or a bull dozer." cracked Gokan as his eyes darted around the ceiling corners for roaches or rats.
Just then the bell man and the clerk showed up with their bags and dropped them all at the door way. Out of breath from carrying it all, the clerk said, "And here's your key. Our number is written on the phone, call if you need any service." and with that they left the room. Bra pouted as she threw her arms in the air with a whine, "Oh , what is this?! I thought we were gonna have a place to ourselves Goten with a champaign and candles!" and Trunks stared at the two.
"What was that...?"Trunks asked as everyone looked at them. Goten stared at the ceiling. Bra placed a hand over her mouth. "Uhh...what I meant was 'why doesn't this place have lit candles and'...yeah." Bra trialed off as they weren't beleiving it. "Well how about that womans touch in here!" Bra blurted out.
Not knowing what else to do, everyone nodded in agreeance. At least the beach was something to look foward to. And with that settled everyone began to unpack. "There are only two beds. Who's sleeping with the rats tonight?" asked Yamacha and the gang grew silent waiting for some volunteers. Goten sighed, "Look, Bra and I will take the floor for a night and-" "You will?!?!" cried Bra and Goten immediatly replied, "Yes Bra, I will. I promise I'll stay up all night and watch for the roaches to make sure they dont carry you away during the night!" and one by one the men slowly agreed that the women would get the bed while they had floor.
Later that night, the gang got ready for a long sleepless night. The bathroom was crammed with the women who pushed and shoved for the sink. "Move your elbow!" cried Angel to Videl as they both tried desperatly to brush their teeth. "Ow! You got toothpast in my eye Marron!" screamed Lunch as she rubbed her left eye. "This is ubsurd!" cried Chichi as she tried to apply her nightly wrinkle cream before bed. "Could be worse," piped up Marron, "We could be stuck outside in the streets." Juu-chan spit out a wad of toothpaste into the sink and replied, "At least we'd have more room!" and just then a loud banging came upon the bathroom door, "Hey you girls done in there!?!" cried Ubbu, "A number of good men out here exist too you know! There's a line out here for emergencies!!"
"We'll be out in a minute!" Pan cried back and Juu-chan spit out another wad of toothpaste and reached to turn on the focet only to find there was no water. The women froze. "You've got to be kidding me." exclaimed Bulma. Juu-chan didn't know what to say or do except hollar out to the guys who waited outside, "Make that another hour!!!"
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Few were getting a night's good sleep. The room was covered with protruding arms and legs that hung out lazily everywhere. Angel lied there on the bed next to Videl and Marron. Bra tried desperatly to get sleep but something underneath her was bothering her comfort state. She frowned and pulled a sheet of newspaper from under her and was about to toss it when the headline suddenly caught her eye. It was the beach hotel's newspaper and the headline read : Mrs Caliente Island Queen Bathingsuit Pagent.
Marron immediatly awoke at the sound of it and snatched the paper from Bra's hands from below, "Lemme see that!" the blond's large eyes darted across the page as she read with incredible speed. Slowly the other's began to awake wondering what the excitment was all about. Bra suddenly squeeled with excitment as she struggled next to Vegeta to get herself out of the bed. Vegeta slowly awoke and glanced at her with a frown, "What the hell is wrong with you women! Damn don't know how to go to sleep!"
Marron leaped out of the dresser cabinet and squeeled, "A bathing suit contest today for the Caliente Island Queen Competition!" the women sat straight up with interest as Marron continued to read, "but we need to sign up now. The competition is at two in the afternoon."
"Then what are we sitting around here for?!" cried Pan, "No one's getting any sleep anyway!" and with that the women all got up, got dressed and dashed out the room leaving the men in complete confusion. "Did you EVER see a women get ready so fast in your life?" Tien commented in the awkward silence. "Ah what the hell. We now got free beds." All the guys stared at the beds. Gokan began the countdown "Three...two...one!" All of them dashed for the beds squeezing themselves on the bed. And with no more said, the men all immediatly went back to sleep.
