Fan Fiction / Dragon Ball/Z/GT Fan Fiction ❯ All Warriors Join and Fight! ❯ To the Ranch!: Breakfast and Breaking down. ( Chapter 4 )

 

 

Breakfast was served down in the main hall at 7:30. The first people down to breakfast were Vejita, Ayane and Pan. They all sat down together at a table and Ayane apologised for the lift incident the day before.

“It's Ok Ayane, it's just a sensitive subject with all of us at the moment.” The teenage girl smiled kindly at the older woman.

“Oh…” murmured Ayane “Do you mind me asking why?” Vejita looked up from his fruit salad breakfast and decided it was better for him to tell her, rather than the poor girl breaking out in tears again.

“Well” Vejita started, Ayane looked at him. “ The poor girl's mother died when she was a child and her grandmother Chi-Chi - Goku's wife recently ran off with my wife Bulma; so it's all sort of on hiatus at the mo'.” Ayane just gaped in awe. Her heart really went out for these people. They had gone through all these tragedies yet here they are; and without physiologists too…

After a while Hitomi, Lisa, Ryder, Laine and Olly all came down. The friends sat on the table next to Vejita and the girls and the brothers sat not too far away. The next three to arrive for breakfast were Helena, Kasumi and Lei-Fang. The girls sat on the other side of Vejita's table. The next two to come down were Piccolo and Christie. Both came down in dead silence with solemn looks on their faces. They sat alone on tables behind each other. Then a few moments later Goku and his sons came down. Goku spotted Piccolo and they group of three sat with the Namek. Following this the boys ordered 5 portions of bacon, 4 eggs, 3 tomatoes, 2 large helpings of scrambled egg, 4 sausages and 4 slices of toast each. And they ate this meal roughly seven times over, EACH! After about a minute of sitting with the Saiyans Piccolo decided he couldn't put up with the staring anymore; so he got up and moved behind him to the table with Christie seated at it.

“Can I sit here please?” Piccolo asked quietly. Christie nodded and then took a sip of her black coffee.

“Thanks…” he murmured.

“So…” she said coolly “Why are you green?” Piccolo quirked an eyebrow.

“From the planet Namek.”

“Cool.” Piccolo ordered a blueberry muffin. Christie smirked at his order and just continued to drink her coffee.

Tina and Trunks trudged out of their rooms. Scruffily dressed, uncombed hair and barley awake. They both walked forward and straight into each other. This woke them both up. Not sure what was happening, they both got into their fighting stance. They then looked into each other's eyes and realised what had happened.

“Late for breakfast?” Trunks asked

“Yeh, I guess…” Tina replied

“Me too.” They walked down to breakfast and sat together.

“I'm really sorry about the whole bashing into you thing…” Trunks said.

“Don't mention it, it was as much my fault as yours.” Tina said back. Trunks just nodded. They discussed the matter further over a large stack of pancakes to share.

Gus walked into the Main hall to make an announcement. He coughed to make his presence known. All attention was instantly on him.

“The coach will be leaving at noon. Then we should arrive at the Ranch at 5:00pm. At the ranch rooms will be groups of fours and one room of two. Thank you.” Gus exited the room as the occupants stared at him. Olly turned to his brothers “ Groups of FOUR! That SUCKS!”

“Well not if your in a room with one of these gorgeous ladies…” Laine said drooling. Olly just scowled at him.

Gus re-entered the room with a piece of paper. “The groups are as follows: #1 Kasumi, Christie, Goku and Piccolo. #2 Gohan, Ryder, Helena and Lisa. #3 Goten, Trunks, Lei-Fang and Tina. #4 Laine, Olly, Hitomi and Pan. And the room of two is Ayane and Vejita.” Gus once again left the room with everyone gaping at him.

“Mixed rooms! MIXED ROOMS! I mean what the FUCK is that about!” Tina started shouting at the top of her voice. Trunks sweat dropped and attempted to calm down a hysteric Tina.

“Er Tina, it's Ok! Your with me and Goten. Goten's fine really. And we're alright aren't we?” Tina ceased her shouting and looked at Trunks `He's really quite cute and honest… he's right what the fuck am I going on about? I mean sharing a room with him might not be so bad…' Tina smiled at him and sat back down in her seat.

“Yeh, I guess your right. We're friends right? We should be fine as long as you don't walk into me again.”

“Hey! You walked into me too ya know!”

“Yeh, Yeh…”

 

Ayane looked at Trunks and then at Vejita.

“Oi, Vejita, Trunks' sorta reminds me of you.”

“Of course he does. He's my-”

“Your what?” she asked

“You wouldn't believe me if I told you…”

“Try me.” she replied

“He is my son from the future, but he only exists in theory now.”

“Okay… Why?”

“coz he's intended to be mine and Bulma's son. But Bulma left me, and I am never I mean NEVER taking her back. I mean I loved her and trusted her… and she betrayed me. I chose her to be my wife and I stayed loyal always… and now she just ripped my heart out and crushed it…” tears shone in his eyes. He looked up Ayane and smiled “heh, I've never told anyone this not even Goku.” a lone tear trickled down his cheek. Ayane reached out and brushed it away.

“You just need someone to give your heart the love to recover…” her hand lingered on his cheek. Vejita lifted his hand to rest on Ayane's. She turned bright red and stood up.

“Er… I should be going now, gotta pack, takes a girl a long time to pack, yes a very long time…” She rushed out of the hall and started to go to her room. `holy shit… this is getting serious! And I've gotta share a room with him… who ever thought out the room plan must be a loon…'

Vejita sat at the table staring after the girl. `I think I'm getting' over Bulma…'

 

Back on the bus again. Nothing much happening. Then BANG! The coach skidded to a stop in a cloud of dust.

“What the hell happened?” Lei-fang called down to the driver.

“Looks like a flat tyre” he answered.

“How far to the ranch?” Goten asked

“about four miles.” he replied. “Well everyone off please.” All the fighters disembarked the coach.

Half an hour of sitting around and Ayane couldn't take it anymore.

“Can't we move this hunk of junk!?” she yelled at the driver.

“No, we haven't got a spare tyre and we can't just leave it here.” Ayane scowled at the driver.

“Well I think I can help if you don't mind walking for a bit.” Vejita said from behind.

“how exactly can you help?” Ayane asked rolling her eyes.

“Like this” he said lifting the whole bus up with one hand.

“Bloody hell! How are you doing that?” Ayane asked.

“Well I-” Vejita started.

“HOLY FUCK!” Tina screamed as she saw Vejita with the coach. All the girls stared with their mouths hanging open.

“right…” Vejita sighed “Right we have to walk to the ranch from here. Unless any of you feel you can't handle a walk for a few miles.” Vejita called out across the crowd of people.

“Well how am I supposed to walk in these heels?” Tina called to him.

“And me” Lei-fang added

“I guess walking in the shoes I've got on would be awkward too.” Kasumi said.

“Hop on” Goku said crouching slightly and motioning towards his back.

“Why thank you.” she said jumping onto Goku's back.

“Here.” Goten said motioning like his father to Lei-fang.

“Thanks.” she said wrapping her arms around Goten's neck.

“And what about me? I'm wearing a bloody skirt.” Tina asked.

“Well you can sit on my shoulders. It would be easier.” Trunks said to her.

“no way! I'd squash you!”

“No you wouldn't.” he grabbed her hips and raised her onto his shoulders. “See, I'm fine.”

“Well if you insist. Do you mind me holding your forehead for support?”

“Go right ahead.”

“Right, now that's sorted lets get going!” Vejita said walking off with the bus. Ayane decided to keep Vejita company so she stood under the coach, walking beside him.

“So, you ever been to a ranch before?” Ayane asked him

“Nope. Have you?” he asked.

“Yes, for the past few years me and my half sister have been taking our vacations at a ranch.”

“Who's your sister?”

“Kasumi of course. Ever since Hayate left, Kasumi and I have become closer. We used to despise each other; but Kasumi was very attached to her brother. I've been the only person that she could really turn to when she needed someone. So we've become closer. Which is actually a good thing, it saves a lot of time without us constantly fighting.”

“So what's on a ranch?”

“You don't know what's on a ranch?” Ayane asked shocked

“No, could you tell me?”

“Well, horses and cattle mainly. Have you ever ridden a horse?” she asked curiously.

“Yes, my father and I used to use them for the royal parade. We didn't have war horses though no need when you're your own transport. Father never really appreciated them but I did. My horse was called Maihen. She was a magnificent creature; lovely golden coat and shining hazel eyes…” Vejita looked to see Ayane gaping at him; he blushed.

“I guess I must sound like a right prick huh?”

“Well- I - er… I think it's sweet.” they both blushed.

 

“What's with the guy and the whole coach lifting thing? Does he take steroids? `coz if he does he shouldn't be allowed in the tournament.” Lei-fang asked Goten.

“What Vejita? He's just real strong like the rest of us. Nothing to special about him really.” Goten answered.

“Well I'd say there is something special about him.” Tina said from Trunks' back “I mean I can't lift a coach above my head with one arm and then walk miles with it. Can you Trunks?”

“Well… yeh.” he replied

“Like father like son then I guess.” Goten said “Hey! I can lift a coach too, so that's not strictly true.”

“what do you mean `like father like son'?” Tina asked Goten.

“Well Trunks is Vejita's-” Goten started before he got a swift kick up the ass.

“What he means is he hasn't got a brain and is a crazy ass loon.” Trunks said

“Yeh exact- HEY!” Goten moaned Tina and Lei-Fang burst out in roaring laughter.
