Dragon Ball/Z/GT Fan Fiction ❯ The Chibi Potion ❯ Our Little Pilaf ( Chapter 16 )

Chibi-Gohan: *holding his nose* You know Piccolo, I don't think rubbing that junk all over yourself was such a good idea.

Piccolo: Well, it's keeping your Dad away from me so it has to be good.

Chibi-Gohan: But you smell, and your skins beginning to grow hair on it.

Piccolo: Those are just minor details.

Chibi-Gohan: But...

Piccolo: No buts! Nothing and I mean nothing is going to make me wash this stuff off! Understand?

Chibi-Gohan: *nods*

Piccolo:*crosses his now hairy arms* Good!

Chichi: *pounds on door* Gohan! What is that horrible smell?

Chibi-Gohan: Well, um...

Chichi: *opens the door and sees the hairy Piccolo* Gohan! You know what I've told you about pets! Now take that mangy mutt back where you got it!

Piccolo: *sweat drops*

Chibi-Gohan: Wait Mom! That's not a dog! It's Piccolo.

Chichi: Piccolo? *looks closely at Piccolo and jumps back* What the hell happened to you?!

Chibi-Gohan: He rubbed some of Bulma's food over himself.

Chichi: Well, think about what ever reason you had to do that while your washing that crap off in the shower.

Piccolo: I refuse to!

Chichi: *glares at him* What did you say?

Chibi-Gohan: Uh oh! *dives under the bed*

Piccolo: Well, what I mean is... Vegeta's still in there (A/N: if you haven't read Chapter 2 of Media Mayhem, you won't understand this)

Chichi: So what? You're just going to be using the shower. *grabs Piccolo by the ear* Come on!

Piccolo: Nooo!

Chibi-Gohan: Bye Piccolo *waves*

Goku: *walking out of the kitchen with a chicken leg* What's going on?

Chibi-Gohan: Mom's making Piccolo take a shower.

Goku: *scratching his head* What's so bad about that?

Piccolo: *screaming from bathroom* My nose!

Chichi: Quit whining! The faster you take a shower, the faster you'll get out!

Goku: *looking down the hall* I still don't get it.

Vegeta: *screaming from same bathroom* Ahh! My eyes!

Goku: *looks at Chibi-Gohan with wide eyes* You mean she...?

Chibi-Gohan: *smiling* Yeah, she put Piccolo in the bathroom where Vegeta's at, and by the sounds of it, his butts still stuck to that seat.

Vegeta: Brat, as soon I get free from this toilet seat, I'm going to tear you into so many pieces that even the dragon won't be able to fix you!

Goku: But couldn't Vegeta break free if he went Super?

Chibi-Gohan: Yeah, and chance breaking the toilet?

Goku: Good point.

#16 Our Little Pilaf

"Okay, get to your posts." Pilaf ordered, "I'm sure that Satan girl will show up shortly."

*Two Hours Later*

"They should've been here by now!" Pilaf growled impatiently. "Any sign of them Shao?"

"Not yet." Shao called down from a tree. "But sir, what exactly are we going to do when they show up again?"

"This is the last time I'm going to tell you!" Pilaf shouted to him. "First as soon as they enter the park, Mai is going to distract them by cooing at the child. Shao, that's when you start throwing rocks at the to girls. That Satan girl is bound to get upset and look for who is throwing them, that's when you jump from the tree and run as fast as you can. After the Satan girl has ran off after you, Mai will convince Videl's friend that she might need help in capturing the rock thrower, and offer to watch the child. That is when we take the kid. Put him in the outfit, and hide."

"B-but what about me?" Shao asked nervously.

"Oh who cares about minor details?" Pilaf said, clicking his walkie-talkie over to Mai. "How are things at your post Mai?"

"Sir I honestly think this is one of the most stupidest -"

"Sir I've got a visual on the targets!" Shao interrupted. As Videl and Erasa appeared by the park gates.

"Excellent, get ready." Pilaf ordered.

"Okay, tell me again why we had to stop at the mall?" Videl growled at Erasa, who was struggling with several bags.

"Like I said, there was a sale at my favorite store." Erasa said, glancing down at the sleeping infant in the stroller. "He seems pretty comfortable."

"Well what do you expect?!" Videl barked. "We had to chase him through the entire mall!"

"Well he wouldn't have gotten so hyped up if you hadn't bought him that giant cookie."

"Hey he quit crying didn't he? And wasn't if you who took him over to the cookie stand?"

"Yeah, well anyways I'm beat. Lets take a breather for a while 'k?" Erasa said, walking up to a park bench beside an elderly woman, as Videl sighed and rolled her eyes.

"Mind if we sit here?" Videl asked the woman politely.

"I don't mind," the woman answered, then looked into the stroller. "What a cute baby! Is he yours?"

"Oh no, I'm just watching him for some friends." Videl blushed, not noticing the scurrying from the bush behind her.

Pilaf grabbed his radio and was about to give Shao the okay to divert the girl's attention, when suddenly Videl's watch started beeping.

"It never ends!" Videl muttered as she pressed the receiver button on her watch. "Yes Chief, what is it?"

"Oh, Videl! I'm terribly sorry! I know it's you day off but-"

"Just spill it!" Videl snapped into her watch.

"Y-yes, well you see we have a hostage situation over at the fifth national bank, three of them are our own men, and we are in desperate need of some back up." Came the nervous reply.

"That's only a few blocks from where I'm at." Videl said, flipping the switch back, "I'll be there in a few minutes! Erasa! I need you to keep an eye on Gohan for me!" Videl said, standing to her feet.

"Huh?! Me? But I don't know how to watch kids!" Erasa cried out.

"Look, I'm only going to be gone for maybe ten minutes tops, if he wakes up and cries, just change his diaper and give him a bottle. I gotta go." Videl yelled back as she ran out of the park.

"Diapers?" Erasa groaned, as she looked down at the stroller again.

"Please stay asleep kid." she silently pleaded and smiled at the older woman next to her.

It had only been a few minutes since Videl left, but Erasa still kept glancing towards the park entrance for her to return. Suddenly her face lit up as she saw some guys she knew from school. She was going to grab her things head over there, but realized something, or rather someone.

"I can't take Gohan over there!" She cried out, dropping her bags, "They might think that he's mine and blab it out to the whole school." She pouted for a second then her eyes, once again glanced at the old woman next to her.

"Um, excuse me ma'am?" She asked as politely as she could, "Would you mind watching the kid for a few minutes, I'll just be over there at the gate. And he should be asleep for a while." She flashed the woman her best smile and prayed it would work.

"Take you time," the woman replied "I'm in no hurry to go anywhere and I'd be happy to watch the boy. Now you go off and have fun Missy."

Erasa quickly thanked the woman and ran off.

The woman watched at the girl ran over to some boys and immediately began flirting with them.

"That is one careless girl." the woman said, taking off her wig and stuffing it into a capsule, along with the rest of her costume.
"Good work, Mai." Pilaf said, walking out from behind the bushes. He glanced over to where Erasa had ran off to and started laughing.

"By the time that foolish girl comes back, we'll be long gone. Alright Shao, get out of that tree and let's go." he radioed Shao, as he was soon trampled by his assistant falling on top of him.

"Sire? Where are you?" Shao glanced worriedly around for his missing boss.

"Get of me you moron!" Pilaf groaned out as Shao realized where he had fallen.

Mai took Gohan out of his stroller and glanced at the two men bickering. Rolling her eyes, she quickly dressed the chibi. Popping a baby carriage capsule of her own, not noticing that he was smiling, she set Gohan into it, and approached the two.

"Come on," Mai said, pulling the two apart. "We've got to get out of here before anyone suspects anything."

"Yeah right Mai," Pilaf scoffed, "nobody will suspect a thing."

"I hope you're right." Mai mumbled as they walked towards the zoo.

Meanwhile, Videl was angrily stomping back to the park.

"Damn robbers, one word from the Chief that I was on my way over there and they give up on the spot! And the Chief didn't even bother radioing me telling me that they gave up!" she continued to grumble to herself as she entered the park entrance and saw Erasa flirting with a few boys from school.

"Figures." Videl mumbled, then noticed something. "Erasa! Where's Gohan at?"

"Huh?" Erasa turned around to see Videl, and smiled and waved to her. "Hey Videl? Catch those baddies?"

"They gave up, but that's not important right now. Where's Gohan?"

"Oh, don't worry!" Erasa said, turning her attention back to the boys, "I got that old lady to watch him."

Videl ran to the bench they were at and saw the stroller, but no old lady. "I left him with the old lady." she mimicked Erasa, as she walked to the stroller. But as she turned the stroller around, she noticed that not only had the old lady left, but so did Gohan.

"ERASA!!" Videl yelled and ran to her friend with the empty stroller.

"What?" Erasa asked worriedly, she only saw Videl angry like this a few times and knew it meant something bad.

"That old lady you got to watch Gohan, well she's gone and so is Gohan!" Videl screamed, causing several people to look towards their direction.

Erasa's eyes got wide and she broke down in tears "Oh Videl! I'm sorry! She looked like a harmless old lady!" she sobbed.

Videl took a deep breath and tried to calm her friend down, "It's alright, we'll find him."

"But how?" Erasa asked, as her eyes began welling up with more tears.

Videl didn't answer her; she pressed a button on her watch and called the Chief.

"It's me, Videl. I need all squads at all park entrances and exits ASAP."

Videl then once again tried to calm her crying friend.

"Chichi is gonna kill me if we don't find him." was all that was going through her mind at the moment.

A few minutes later, the police arrived, and after being briefed by Videl, they began checking every baby carriage and stroller in the park and in the zoo.

Pilaf and his lackeys were just about to enter the park when they saw a cop checking the stroller ahead of them.

"What's this all about?!" an angry mother yelled as the cop had accidentally woke her baby.

"I'm sorry ma'am, but there has been a kidnapping and we have to search every one who enters the zoo."

"Did you hear that!" Pilaf said nervously to Mai. "Now there is no way we can get out easy!"

"Relax sire," Mai said coolly. "I thought ahead incase something like this happened." With that, she pushed a button on the side of the stroller, and Gohan began to sink to the bottom of it.

"That's incredible Mai, but won't he suffocate?" Shao asked.

"Nope I added air holes to the bottom, and its not that noticeable."

"Okay, but what are we going to do with an empty baby carriage?" Pilaf asked.

"Forgive me for this." Mai said, picking Pilaf up and setting him in the carriage.

"Mai! What is the meaning of this?!" Pilaf asked angrily.

"Well sir, you do sort of resemble a baby." Mai answered, as Pilaf sweat dropped.

"Next!" The cop called out as Mai and Shao walked Pilaf, and Gohan, who had woken up inside the carriage, to be inspected by the cop.

"Sorry for the intrusion ma'am, but we're looking for an infant that was reported kidnapped earlier today." the cop said, as he pulled the blanket out of the carriage.

"Uh, Goo goo?" Pilaf said, looking up at the cop nervously, making Shao and Mai sweat drop.

The police officer looked at the so called child and then at Mai and Shao.

"This is your child?" he asked them, as Shao nodded.

"Yup! That's our little Pilaf!" Shao said, trying to keep his snickering to a minimum, as Pilaf glared daggers at him from the carriage.

"Well, not to sound rude, but he doesn't look at thing like the either of you two."

"Well, that's because he was adopted." Mai quickly answered.

"Oh, I guess that would explain it..." the officer murmured.

"What?" Mai asked, as the cop walked over to Pilaf.

"Well, you usually see ugly children with uglier parents." he said, which made Shao crack up laughing.

"Why you!" Pilaf growled quietly to himself before an evil smirk came across his face as he let out a loud wail that made the officer jump.

"Oh I'm sorry! I meant nothing by it." the cop apologized as he began to pat Pilaf on his head.

Pilaf then saw his opportunity and bit down hard on the officer's hand.

The cop let out a howl of pain as he pulled his hand out of the carriage with Pilaf still clinging to his hand.

Mai and Shao quickly rushed to the officers side to pry their boss of his hand, not noticing the small rip that was coming from the bottom of the carriage, or the chibi that had crawled out from the rip.

Gohan landed flat on his diapered butt, and glanced over to where Shao and Mai were pulling Pilaf off of the officer's hand. He snickered as Mai, scolded him and the cop was now blowing on his hand to get rid of some of the pain. Looking around at his surroundings, he saw lots of different animals. Smiling happily, he started to crawl towards one of the cages.

Shao happened to turn in time to see the small boy's tail turn around the corner, and tapped Mai on the shoulder.

"What is it?" Mai asked, as she finally had Pilaf under control.

Shao just pointed to the animal cages and whispered, "He got away!"

Mai and Pilaf's eyes grew wide and they stared at each other. Getting the hint, Mai set Pilaf back into the carriage and headed off into the zoo.

"That kid is crazy!" the officer cried, bandaging his hand, "How come he bit me?"

"He's teething." was all Shao said to him, as he ran off to catch up with Pilaf and Mai.

Once they were out of site of any police officers, Mai recapsuled the carriage, then turned to Shao.

"Where was the last place that you saw the kid?"

"He went crawling off that way." Shao said, pointing to the direction he last saw Gohan at.

"Oh, that's nice. Then why didn't you run after him?!" Pilaf yelled, making Shao jump.

"I- I couldn't, with the cop and all..." Shao stuttered, and began apologizing to Pilaf, as Mai searched around.

"Sir! Look I found something you'd be interested in." She said, pointing down to the ground.

"What?" Pilaf asked walking over to where Mai was pointing and glanced down. "What am I looking at?" he asked again impatiently.

"Crawl marks." Mai answered.

"Right, I knew that! All right! Follow those baby tracks!"
