The 'Day' things tell you what day it is of camping. So when it says the Final day that's when they are leaving.
I will do this with

~*The Arrival - Day 1- Monday*~

As the gang neared the camp-site, a song came on the radio that we all probably know...

"It's gettin' hot in here, so take off all your clothes!" The radio blared.

"I am, gettin' so hot, I wanna take my clothes off!" Goku sung in a high pitched voice.
Everyone looked at him uneasily, as if he had a disease and it was contagious.

"Keep your clothes on, for our sake," Vegeta remarked, eyeing Goku with continuing disgust.

"Gosh, I was just kidding!" Goku said, sounding a bit hurt.

"Don't listen to him Goku," Chi-Chi comforted," He's just uh...jealous, that's all."

This answer seemed to please Goku, and he instantly perked up. With that out of the way, Bulma annouced," We're here!"

Everyone looked immensly relieved, especially Goku. "I really need to go..." he whined to Bulma.
She gave him a capsule which was marked 'powder room'.

Goku looked at it, but then smiled. "Uh...Bulma?" He asked, "You gave me the wrong capsule."

Piccolo rolled his eyes and said in an annoyed tone, "That's the polite way of saying the can, Goku."

"Ohhh...I see..." Goku said, looking a bit embarssed. "I knew that, I was uh, testing your skills."

Everyone almost fell over anime style, with the exception of Goku, who just rubbed the back of his head.
"I think we should set up," Vegeta said, shaking his head at Goku's simpleness.
So the gang set up the tents and made camp.

~*~ That Evening ~*~

Chi-Chi was preparing supper, since Bulma and Karina didn't really have any cooking skills.
And the guys, of course, didn't know how to scramble an egg. Goku had skills with sandwhiches,
but that was about it.

"Soooooooo...What's for dinner?" Goku asked Chi-Chi for about the millionth time.

"You just asked thirty seconds ago, silly. I said 30 minutes," Chi-Chi smiled, sweatdropping, starting to get sick
of his constant questioning of when dinner was to be served.

Everyone else just rolled thier eyes.

Ever since Goku had accidentally set fire to the boys tent, everyone had been pissed at him. But Vegeta had blamed Piccolo,
who had asked Goku if he could make a fire. Goku had been all too eager, but had accidentally started the fire too close to the tent.
They managed to save it, miracuously, but Goku had been chewed-out by Vegeta, Piccolo, and, of course, Chi-Chi.
Never the less, Goku had got on Chi-Chi's good side again, so she was putting up with his stupidity.

As dinner was being served, the sun began to set. Bulma sighed, it was so beatiful, not to mention romantic. She looked at
Vegeta and wished he would share it with her. As if he read her mind, Vegeta scooted closer to Bulma, and put his arm around
her. Piccolo smirked as Vegeta and Bulma, uh...got busy. He laughed a little, but then stopped as Karina looked at him.
She put her finger on his lips and ...well, you can guess the rest. Goku was too busy, no not with Chi-Chi, but eating, that he
didn't notice what was going on, much less any sun set. Chi-Chi coughed a little, but Goku hadn't taken the hint. She coughed a little louder, but Goku still hadn't looked up.

This time she coughed REALLY loud and Goku, without ever looking up from his food, said, "A glass of water will clear that right up." Chi-Chi had given up, it was just impossible.

She stalked out, throwing a salt shaker at Goku, which hit him on the head. He blinked

"Hmm...Whats what's wrong with her?" He asked his friends, but of course they didn't answer.

'Oh, well,' He sighed, thinking, 'Who gets chicks anyway?!' And so ended the first night.


~* Day 2 - Tuesday *~

Piccolo awoke that morning, grunting angrily at Goku, who had, in his sleep, kicked him awake.
He peeked out the charred tent's opening, seeing that only the first rays of the morning sun
had just started shining down over the mountains horizon. 'Mmm...Pretty.' Piccolo thought
simply, thinking of the sun set last night and Karina. He chuckled, sticking his head back
inside the tent, as he sat back on his sleeping bag. He was near one of the edges in the tent,
Vegeta on the other and Goku in the middle.

*Flashback.*

"I don't want the middle though!" Goku complained, pouting childishly, "It's so crowded!"

"Too bad." Vegeta growled, setting his sleeping bag up on the right side of the tent, leaving
only the middle left for Goku. Piccolo had set up his bag as far away from Vegeta as possible.

"But I don't want to sleep there!" He crossed his arms, pouting.

"Stop making such a big deal about it." Piccolo said, rolling his eyes.

"Well it'll be you regreting it!" Goku said, laying out his sleeping bag in the middle, "I kick
in my sleep!"

*End of Flashback.*

'If only we would have taken that warning seriously...' Piccolo thought, remembering how Goku had
tossed and turned in the night, kicking him awake every few hours. He didn't know if Vegeta had
gotten kicked, but he didn't really care if he did get kicked or not.

"Wake up." Piccolo barked loudly, glancing from Vegeta and Goku as he pulled a shirt out of his
suit case.

Vegeta grunted, rolling over so his back was turned torwards Piccolo. He pulled the sleeping bag
over his head. Goku sat up slowly, yawning and stretching his arms upward. He scratched his head,
one eye still closed, the other only half opened. His hair moved as his fingers pushed it away as
he scratched his head sleepily.

"Wake up Vegeta's lazy butt..." Piccolo said, "I'm going to go to go wake the girls."
He started pulling on some cargo shorts, ducking low as he did so and stepping out of the tent.

He blushed as he saw the girls, already awake, unfortunatly for him, look at him. They were all
around the now lit camp fire, a pan over the crackling flames as they cooked breakfast. Thier eyes widened.
He only had his shorts pulled up to his knees at the moment so they got an eyefull of him shirtless with white boxers on,
little red hearts all over them.

He stumbled back as they began giggling and tripped over a rock, falling back into the tent
on his butt. Goku had just gotten dressed and was leaning over the still sleeping Vegeta. He blinked at
Piccolo, "What happened?" He didn't give his green friend a chance to answer as he caught sight of
his boxers and pointed, laughing. "Hey I got one's just like that! But the hearts are pink, not red!"

Piccolo sweatdropped, pulling up his shorts and zipping them up, then replied, "Well isn't that
just SO coincidental.."

"I know! Weird isn't it? Hey, lets see what boxers Vegeta has on!" Goku suggested, reaching for
the other saiyans sleeping bag to pull it back.

"Er...let's wake him up and see." Piccolo said. He didn't really want Vegeta to be awoken by
Goku pulling his sleeping bag back so he could see what his boxers were decorated with.
He already was ALWAYS in a pretty bad mood.

"Ok!" Goku said cheerly, leaning over Vegeta.

"Veeeegeeetaaaa," Goku said in a high voice, tapping Vegeta's covered shoulder gently, "Time for
school. Get up, or you might miss the bus."

Vegeta mumbled, "Just five more minutes, Mom..."

Piccolo and Goku snickered silently before Goku continued in a woman'like voice, "I washed your
underwear and it's on your closet door on the little hangers, Ok? Make sure you put a clean pair
on before heading off to the bus stop!"

"Thanks...five more minutes..." Vegeta mumbles, still mostly asleep.

"No, how about NOW!" Piccolo smirked, kicking Vegeta's butt, which was covered by the sleeping bag.
Vegeta jumped, awake, sitting up and looking at Piccolo and Goku with shock.

Goku and Piccolo started laughing their heads off, clutching their sides. Vegeta scowled, understanding
now. He grolwed angrily, standing up, his sleeping bag falling down so his boxers were exposed.

"Hey!" Goku exclaimed, pointing to the saiyan prince's underwear, "He has the PURPLE heart pair!"

"What!?" Vegeta asked, then realized his embarrassing boxers were showing, he pulled his sleeping
bag up to cover them again.

"Piccolo has the red hearts and I have the pink ones!" Goku said happily, "Isn't that cool? It's like
we planned it or something, huh?"

Vegeta and Piccolo both sweatdropped. "Well we didn't." Vegeta growled, reaching for his suit case to
get some pants. Piccolo blushed a little, pulling the shirt he had selected earlier over his head.
He went outside, feeling crowded by Goku's innocence and idoiticness.

Karina blushed slightly as she watched him come out for the second time that morning, "Hey Piccolo."

"Hey Karina..." He replied, mumbling. He was still embarrassed. Bulma and Chi-Chi giggled a little
as he blushed. Vegeta and Goku then came out of the guys tent, now fully dressed.

Chi-Chi flipped a pancake skillfully with the pan. Goku started drooling and Vegeta looked like he
was holding back the urge to do the same thing. There was already a good sized stack of pancakes on
a clean plate that was sitting on a tree stump.

"So, when will breakfast be ready?" Goku asked, "I'm STARVING."

Chi-Chi glanced at him, already starting another pancake, "You're ALWAYS starving..."

"True, but I'm even more starving then usual!" Goku said, lifting his index finger pointfully.

Chi-Chi sighed, flipping the pancake and it landed, almost perfectly, on the stack of pancakes that sat
on the plate. Bulma was sitting on one of the long logs that sat around the fire like benches,
fixing her make-up. She patted her hair. Karina was sitting on the same log, watching Chi-Chi
in awe as she continued flipping newly cooked pankcakes onto the already tall stack without even
looking or trying.

Vegeta watched Bulma fix her make-up, his arms crossed casually. Piccolo glanced at him and realized
that the small saiyan wasn't even blinking. Piccolo smirked and walked over to Goku, and whispered,
"Look at Mr. Prince over there, he's not even blinking as he stares in awe at Bulma." He snickered
and waited for Goku to join him. When that never happened he raised an eyeridge, looking in the direction
Goku was staring, his eyes blinkless.

His gaze fell on Chi-Chi, who had started piling the pancakes on another plate now. He looked at
Goku, raising the same eyeridge higher.

"Are you staring at Chi-Chi or the food?" The Nemekian asked.

"both." goku answered, blinking for the first time, "She looks so pretty when she's cooking,
don't you think?" He sighed in a dreamy sort of way.

"Um...so you don't think Chi-Chi's pretty the rest of the time?"

"Oh I think she's pretty all the time. But she's especially pretty when she cooks."

"...Riiight..." Piccolo said slowly, shaking his head.

"Hey Bulma?" Karina asked her blue haired friend, tearing her gaze from Chi-Chi's amazing ability to cook, "Why are you doing
your make up out here and not in the tent? I mean theres the whole big mirror thing and dresser..."

"What??" Piccolo asked, blinking and turning his gaze to the two female teens, "How could you fit a dresser in that tent??"

He glanced over at the girls tent, which was the same size as the guys and too small to fit a dresser in...or so he thought.

"Oh thats a special tent." Bulma replied, standing up and turning to Karina to answer her question, "I just wanted to get some fresh
air out here, but I'll finish my make up in there."

"Alright." Karina said, standing up to join her.

Piccolo opened and closed his mouth a few times in confusment before walking fastly over to them, a finger raised. "Um...ladies?"

The two stopped walking torwards the tent and looked at him, blinking. "What is it Piccolo?" Karina asked.

"What do you mean 'theres the whole big mirror thing and dresser' in the tent?" He asked, blinking.

"Oh this tent is larger then it looks," Bulma answered, "Come on, we'll show you."

He followed, confused, as the two girls opened the tent's opening and entered. He ducked inside and his eyes bacme wide
and his pupils dialated as he beheld the sight before him. The tent from the outside looked no larger then the guys tent.
But, on the inside, it was huge! The inside had pink tent-material walls and there were three matresses inside, including
a dresser and some make up and a mirror sat upon it. It was still only one room, but was big and comfortable. There were
even some blow up chairs sitting in the corner.

"How...?" Piccolo said, dumbfounded, staring around him.

"It's called a capsule tent," Bulma smiled, explaining, "You know how dino caps, or capsules, can store large things in them that
are ten times there size? Well it's the same concept with this tent."

"I don't even know how capsules work." Piccolo blinked.

Bulma seemed to not here this as she sat infront of the dresser, picking up a lipstick tube off of it. She took off the lid and spread
lipstick over her bottom lip and pursed them, spreading the make up to her upper lip. Karina pulled up a blow up chair and sat next
to her, reaching for the mascara. Piccolo blinked and walked out, shaking his head, 'Chicks...'

Outside Goku, Chi-Chi, and Vegeta had already started digging in on the pancakes. Well Goku and Vegeta had anyways.
Chi-Chi was eating slowly and politely, her eyes closed and a patient look on her face. Piccolo turned back to the tent and
yelled through the entrance, "Hey girls if you want any breakfast you better come out here before Veget aand Goku eat
it all!"

Piccolo sat next to Goku, Chi-Chi on his other side. Vegeta sat on Chi-Chi's other side. Both Vegeta and Goku were shoving
pancakes into thier faces as if they hadn't eaten in weeks. Bulma and Karina came out and sat next to thier boy friends, blinking
at the two saiyans. Bulma and Karina got some pancakes and Piccolo was suprised they didn't loose a hand as they put them in
the way of Vegeta's and Goku's mouths to grab a few panckaes for themselves.

Bulma looked with a raised brow and a curled lip at Vegeta as he stuffed his face and finally said, "Really, Vegeta, you need to learn some table manners."

Veget glanced at her and swallowed the current mouthful of pancakes that was in his mouth before replying, "And Maybe you should
learn not to interrupt me while I eat."

Bulma scowled as he gave her a glare and returned his attention to his food. Bulma hmph'd and stood up, heading torwards the bathroom
that now sat a little ways off. It was small enough, but not too small. It had one tiolet and a shower, with, somehow heated water.
On her way she went into the tent and grabbed a towel then, once returning outside, announced, "I'm taking a shower." She gave Vegeta
a glare, "No noe bother me."

With that said she went into the bathroom door and Vegeta rolled his eyes. He finished his last pancake and stood up, "I swear..
women are so arrogant." The others just gave him sceptical looks, which he ignored.

The rest of the day they mostly just got totally settled, setting up all there stuff and deciding on things they would do throughout the
week. After a dinner of hot dogs, Bulma and Chi-Chi limmited the saiyans to five each, Piccolo and the other two males sat in
the tent, talking.

"I can't believe school is going to start again..." Goku whined, covering his face with his hands.

Vegeta sighed, "Me either. This sucks."

"Well atleast football will be starting again." Piccolo said after a moment, as if trying to bring up the ligth side of things.

"True...then I can take out my dissapointment of school starting again on you two." Vegeta smirked, glancing from one to the other.

Piccolo rolled his eyes, "Oh please, Vegeta, you act like you didn't get tackled once last year."

"Not as much as you." Vegeta shot.

"Oh, so you counted?" Piccolo sneered. The two growled, their noses only inches apart.

"Why don't we take this outside?" Vegeta smirked, starting to stand.

"Why not?" Piccolo said, accepting the challenge. Goku blinked as the two stood up and walked out the tent intrance. He scrambled to his
feet and followed.

It was already pretty late and the sun had long ago dissapeared over the mountianous horizon. All around were thick pine trees
that were very tall, atleast twenty feet high each. Only the light of the moon mad eit able for the men to see each other. The moon
was full and bright in the sky, lighting up everything with a dim white-ish blue glow. A dim light was visable through the material
of the girls tent and they could hear the slight murmiring of voices within.

"You guys better not wake up the girls..." Goku warned, glancing nervously at the tent.

"They are awake anyways, can't you hear them jabbering?" Vegeta said, not caring much at all.

"Yeah, they probably wont notice anyways." Piccolo said, not taking his eyes off of Vegeta, who hadn't looked away from Piccolo
as well.

"I dunno..." Goku said warningly, "They mgiht get really pissed and make us sleep outside or something. Or they might yell at us.
Or even worse...!" The two looked at him now as he said worriedly with wide eyes, "They might take away breakfast and lunch tomorrow!"

Piccolo shrugged but Vegeta looked a little phased. "Take away dinner and lunch?" He repeated, his hand instinctivly going to
his stomach and rubbing it, as if the thought of having to not eat anything for so long was making him hungry already.

"C'mon Vegeta," Piccolo sneered, crossing his arms, "don't make a lame excuse to skip out on this little fight."

Vegeta scowled and he unconciously chose pride over food. He growled, clenching his fist and it shook slightly with his contained
anger. "You'll be eating those words, green boy."

"I seriously doubt it." Piccolo replied, sliding into fighting stance.

"I seriously don't." Vegeta growled, bending his knees and putting his arms apart, sliding into fighting stance as well.

Piccolo sweatdropped. He could tell that the saiyan was definatly pissed off and he thought he might be regreting his slight
cockiness. But his scowl deepened as he thought, 'I'm not half as cocky as little saiyan prince over there. So all the better for me
because he'll be eating more words than I will.' He smirked.

Vegeta growled and pushed off of the ground, flying at Piccolo with his fist exended. Piccolo got ready to dodge, but suddenly
the saiyan disappeared infront of his eyes just as he was about to block his punch. He growled, looking around, trying to sense
his power level. 'Dangit...he hid it.' He thought as he glanced around, not being able to sense him anywhere.

"Right here, Green Bean!"

Piccolo turned around and looked up just in time to get Vegeta's clenched fists hammered into his forehead. He fell hard back into
the ground, squinting his eyes closed in pain. He opened an eye halfway and saw Vegeta about to kick him. Just as the saiyan's
foot was coming down, heading for his head, the nemekian rolled out of the way. Vegeta's broke the ground and he pulled it out,
looking around angrily. Piccolo had disappeared.

As the Nemekian hid his powerlevel, now behind a tree, he watched his oppenent with narrowed eyes. 'You may have gotten the
first hit Vegeta, but I will get the last.' He thought, slinking behind another tree. He planned to walk quietly through the outer rim of trees
until on the oposite side of where he had started. He flinched as he stepped on a twig and it cracked loudly under his foot.
He cursed silently as he saw Vegeta's head snap around, looking in his direction.

Vegeta quickly powerd up a ki blast and shot it into the trees. Piccolo barely missed this as he flew to the side and landed, out
of the trees, rolling. Vegeta was already on him and Piccolo got to his feet in a flash and they were soon in a fast hand-to-hand combat
battle. Vegeta got to hits in before Piccolo hit back once. Then Piccolo got three, then Vegeta four. They continued dodging,
hitting, and missing until they broke apart when their fists hit each other and they pushed away.

They landed about 15 feet apart on their feet, each having an angry scowl on thier face. Vegeta tasted blood and wiped the side of
his mouth to see it on his thumb. Piccolo felt his cheek. It had a bruise and, to the touch, a slight pang twinged through the area of
his face. Both fighters growled and Vegeta began powering up a ki blast at the same time Piccolo did.

Piccolo shot his yellow ki blast and so did Vegeta, his blue, and they hit inbetween them. Vegeta and Piccolo stared yelling,
searching thier whole beings for energy to add to their blast to over power the other's. Goku watched all this, arms crossed,
with a smirk. He enjoyed watching fighting, but loved to be in the fight. Something about the challenge shot a burst of adrinaline
through his body. He felt like jumping in, but decided not to. They would probably get mad at him for the interruption, and it wasn't
exactly a wise thing to make them even maddrer if they were already really pissed off.

Suddenly, with a very loud yell, Vegeta's blast overpowered Piccolo's and pushed it back into it's owner along with Vegeta's blast.
There was a large explosion and Goku cover his face with his arms to protect his eyes from the flying debrees. He uncovered
his face once the shock of the blast past, the dust settling. He saw Piccolo lying on the ground, now scratched and slightly burned.
His arm was twitching and so were his legs.

The noise of the explosion had brough the girls out of their tent, suprised, and confused loosk on their faces.They were all wearing silk
nigth gowns. Bulma in blue, Chi-Chi in purple, and Karina in green. They all gasped as they saw the twitching Piccolo on the ground.
Bulma's eyes flashed to Vegeta, who was breathing hard, his ahnds still in the form of jsut have shotting a blast. Her eyebrows furrowed
as she strode over to him, karina runnign to the minorly injured Piccolo.

Vegeta was so busy smirking and looking at Piccolo, glad his blast had become the more powerful, he didn't notice the angry
blue-haired female come up behind him.

"VEGETA WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS!?" The furious Bulma yelled, giving her boyfriend a boot to the rear.

Vegeta jumped, his hands flying to his behind instinctivly. It wasn't that it had really hurt, it was just the shock of being kicked there
and being yelled at. He turned to her, with a somewhat embarrassed scowl on his face, "WHAT IS IT, WOMAN?!"

"Are you deaf!? I said what is the meaning of this!? What did you do to Piccolo?!" Bulma growled, lowering her voice slightly
and pointing to Piccolo, who now had his head resting on Karina's lap as she sat, fretting about him. He had assured her he was fine
and just a little roughed up, but she still insisted that she clean his scratches. So, he was pushed to the girls tent where Karina
tended to his "wounds." To him, the only thing really hurt was his pride. 'Dangit, I let my energy level slip and he took the oppertunity
to overpower me." He thought angrily, dimly aware to the small sting of whatever it was Karina was using on his scratches.

"VEGETA DO YOU CARE ABOUT ANYONE BESIDES YOURSELF!?" Piccolo could hear Bulma yelling at Vegeta.
He smirked, 'Atleast I'm the one being pampered and not getting my ear-drums blasted out.' Then the thought struck
him the Bulma would most likely yell at him as well. He sweatdropped.

"YEAH!" Vegeta yelled back, "BUT NOT PERTICULARY THAT TALL GREEN JERK!!" {{Sometimes it's hard keeping this
fic cuss-word-free...hehehe}}

"Vegeta!" Bulma growled, lowering her voice a little, "We are in this thing together and if you are going to fight the whole time
we just might as well go home! I mean, it's only the second night we've been here!"

"He's fine." Vegeta replied.

'This is true,' Piccolo thought, listening to the conversation as Karina continued to clean his scratches, 'But Bulma has a point,
if we don't stop fighting we'll be miserable the whole time..'

"That may be true, but that's not the point!" Bulma growled. She jabbed her finger into his chest, making him blink, "The point is
you better pack up this stupid ego of yours and get along!"

"Well you know that will never happen fully..." Piccolo muttered, "But he could clean his act up a little."

Karina nodded and he looked up at her as she said, "Vegeta's most likely going to be a jerk most of the time, but he's being extra
jerky at the moment."

Piccolo smirked, "You got that right."

Outside Chi-Chi was also telling Goku off for allowing the fight to even start. "You are stronger then them, are you not? You could have
broken it up or, better yet, have kept it from happening at all!"

"But Chi," Goku argued timidly, "Both of them were really amd and when they get that mad they get stronger. And both of them combined
would probably beat me. Besides, I needed to let them blow off some steam."

"You're just lucky the trees didn't catch fire from the blast!" Chi-Chi growled, clenching her fists, "Now lets just go to bed and get some
sleep!"

Goku nodded obiediantly and, after giving Chi-Chi a quick, appologetic hug, started walking for the guy's tent. He glanced back
to see Chi-Chi sigh, shake her head, and walk back into her own tent. He smiled a little and watches her walk back, stopping momentarily.
When she disappeared behind the tent flap he chuckled and started walking again, muttering, "That's one firey attitude she's got.."

Bulma sighed a frustraited sigh before looking up at Vegeta again, "Well no more fighting. That's final. I'm going to bed."

She turned to storm off but felt Vegeta's hand slip around hers, "...Goodnight."

She turned to him and as she looked at his face she felt her anger slowly slip away. She walked a little closer, gripping his hand.
"Goodnight, Vegeta." She tilted her head as she planted a soft kiss on his lips before turning away again and walking to her tent.

He smirked ever so slightly before walking back to the guy's tent. Upon entering he found Goku sitting on his sleeping bag, glaring at
him as he came it with his arms crossed. Vegeta raised a brow, "What?"

"I told you they'd get pissed!" Goku burst out, throwing his arms into the air angrily, "Now Chi-Chi will probably not let me have breakfast tomorrow!" He pouted.

Vegeta smirked and sat down on his own sleeping bag, "Well that's too bad for you, isn't it?"

"And," Goku smiled at the other saiyan, "Probably wont give you any either!"

"What!?" Vegeta looked angry and shocked at the same time.

Goku laughed and pointed as Vegeta's bottom lip stuck out slightly. 'Great, this is going to be a long week...' Vegeta thought with a growl and
slipping into his sleeping bag after pulling off his shirt and pants.

~*Day 3 - Wednesday*~

Karina opened her eyes as she smelt the faint smell of rain lingering in the air. She sat up with a almost unaudiable yawn. She glanced
around with tired, half closed eyes. Bulma and Chi-Chi were still sleeping. She stood up and noticed right away that the ground felt damp
and cold, even though it was sheltered by the tent.

She walked over to the opening of the tent and glanced out, blinking. Every limb of every tree was wet and dropplets of water
fell from various ones and dripped onto the ground, being absorbed by the aleady damp soil.

Piccolo opened his eyes, looking up at the tents top. He glanced to his side to see Goku still asleep and breathing silently. He could here Vegeta snoring slightly on Goku's other side. The green teen sat up and quietly pulled on some clothes, being carfeul not to wake the other two. He walked outside, his sneakers making slight noise on the wet ground. With a quick glance around the area it was obvious to Piccolo that it had rained during the night.

He looked over at the girls tent and blinked, seeing Karina's head peeking out of the opening. Karina smiled when she saw him as well and walked out. He stood there with a small smirk as she walked over to him in her bare feet.

"Hey, what are you doing up so early?" She asked when she reached him and stopped infront of him.

"Just woke up. The other guys aren't awake though." He replied.

"Same with the other girls." Karina glanced over her shoulder before looking back at him, tilting her head slightly, "Wanna take a walk around?"

He blinked, looking down at her feet, then her night gown. He looked up at her face and smirked, "In that?"

She smiled and walked backto the tent. He followed her but then stopped at the entrance and crossed his arms. Karina returned in tennis shoes, jeans, and a blue tee shirt. He smiled at her and they walked off into the woods.

A few hours later, Vegeta stirred in his sleeping back and then sat up. He noticed right away Piccolo was no longer there, because there was no bulk whatever in his sleeping back. Vegeta stood up and quickly dressed and headed to the bathroom to brush his teeth.

Bulma yawned and sat up, stretching her arms. She swung her feet over the bed and dressed, then grabbed her tooth brush and tube of tooth paste and walked out of the tent for the bathroom. When she opened the door she instantly heard the sounds of someone brushing their teeth. She blinked and went in to see it was Vegeta.

A slight anger flared up in her about last night but she remembered they had made up and she walked up behind him. He glanced in the mirror to see her face over his shoulder and turned on the faucet and dipped his cupped hands into the water, brought them to his lips and sucked it into his mouth, then rinsed and spit. He reached for one of the towels hanging on the towel rack on the wall and wioed his mouth, turning to her.

"It's all your's." He said and walked past her and she watched him walk out.

She walked over to the sink and began brushing her teeth.

Chi-Chi yawned and awoke minutes later to see Bulma returning. After brushing her own teeth she started making breakfast; scrambled eggs and bacon.

'I don't know if I should give the boys this...' She thought angrily as she cracked an egg on the side of the frying pan and let it's contents pour onto it. 'After that idiotic fight last night, they don't deserve lunch either!'

Bulma came out of the tent, brushing her hair, "Chi-Chi, where is Karina?"

Chi-Chi didn't look away from her cooking as she replied, "I have no idea. Check the boys tent." She glanced at Bulma with a smirk.

"Oh yeah, like she'd be in there." Bulma laughed.

"I know, I know, I'm teasing." Chi-Chi smiled and started frying some bacon.

"Hey Piccolo isn't here, but Kakarot is still asleep like a log." Vegeta walked up to them, just having returned from the boys tent.

"I wonder where Karina and Piccolo went off to..." Chi-Chi thought aloud.

Vegeta smirked and opened his mouth to say something, but Bulma noticed and elbowed him in the ribs. He snickered and closed his mouth, crossing his arms. They all turned their heads in the direction of the boys tent as a loud yawn sounded.

It was Goku. He was in only his boxers, a towel over his shoulders, and was walking torwards the bathroom, his eyes half open. "I'm taking a shower..." He announced tiredly.

He disappeared into the bathroom as Vegeta sat on a log and Bulma sat next to him. Vegeta drummed his fingers on his knee, watching Chi-Chi cook. After a while he asked quite impatiently, "When are you going to finish? I'm starving."

Chi-Chi glanced at him. She had made up her mind; No breakfast for the guys, but she would let them have lunch and dinner. She had decided cutting their lunch out as well would be pure torture for the two saiyan teens.

"Well you aren't getting any." She said smartly, closing her eyes and tilting her nose into the air.

Vegeta looked shocked, not to mention angry, "AND WHY NOT!?"

He quickly recieved a slap over the beck of his head from Bulma and flinched, although it didn't really hurt. "Don't talk so rudely!" Bulma growled.

He rolled his eyes and looked back to Chi-Chi, who said, "You boys don't deserve breakfast for being so imature last night."

"That's not fair!" He growled.

"Well fair or not, you'll have to deal with it."

He growled again but said nothing more, looking away with a deep scowl and crossing his arms.

Goku soon returned from the shower, a towel wrapped around his waist and his boxers in his hand. He went into the guys tent and came out again, fully dressed and dried, and sat on one of the logs around the fire quickly, drooling as he looked at the food.

"Don't get your hopes up, Kakarot," Vegeta growled, "They aren;t going to give us any food because of last night."

Goku's jaw instantly dropped with suprise and disappointment. He then scowling at Vegeta, "I told you this would happen! But no, don't listen to me!" He pouted, crossing his arms.

Vegeta didn't reply, he was looking in the other direction. Piccolo and Karina had returned, walking down the patht they had left.

"Have fun?" Vegeta asked then smirked as Piccolo scowled at the tone of his voice.

"Not the kind your thinking." Piccolo growled and sat on a log with Karina.

"Where did you guys go?" Chi-Chi asked, preparing only three plates.

"Just on a hike. It was pretty fun, it really woke me up and the scenery was beautiful."

"Cool. Maybe you and Piccolo can take us all on the trail you went later." Bulma smiled.

"Sure." Piccolo replied. He began reached for a plate of food but quickly withdrew it as Chi-Chi slapped it with a wooden spoon she had in hand.

"Hey, what's the deal!?" Piccolo asked, rubbing his hand, irritated.

Bulma quickly explained and he huffed and crossed his arms, "Fine, I'll live."

"I wont," Goku pouted.

The others sweatdropped as his stomache rumbled loudly.

"Goku, you will survive until lunch," Chi-Chi said sternly, ending the matter. Goku looked at the ground sadly, pouting.

"Yeah right." He mumbled, rubbing his belly. Chi-Chi rolled her eyes and the girls began eating, the two sayain men watching
with tempted eyes. When they finished the boys sighs, looking soberly at the ground. No more food was left for them.

Chi-Chi stood up, looking at Karina, "I'm ready for that hike," She smiled.

Karina stood as well and the rest copied, the two saiyans in the group mumbling about hunger.

Karina and Piccolo walked across the small camp site to the path they had taken between some trees. It went uphill and they
had to walk in a single file line since the path was so narrow. It twisted between trees and continued slanting up, until they had to
lean forward and make sure that thier feet were surcure with each step as the path was now on a very steep hill.

Bulma slipped at one point and began sliding on her feet, backwards. Vegeta reached his hand out until she slid into it, her lower
back meeting it. He waited until she regained balance and footing before removing his hand. She smiled at him thankfully and began
the slow walk up again.

"Can't we just fly?" Goku whined slightly to Chi-Chi, who was infront of him, she following Piccolo.

"I need the exercise." She said simply, seeming to enjoy the feeling on a slight pain in her thighs. 'No pain no gain,' she thought as she
stepped up again. Karina reached an opening that was up and between trees. The arched ground was suddely smooth and flat
and as they all gathered behind her, she walked out a little, smiling at the scenery.

Sun was shining brightly all around, the tall pine trees branches filtering the light into thin streams that seemed to sparkle to the ground.
There was a waterfall and river ahead, and the mist that came from the falling water set a sense of serinity around the area.
Chi-Chi and Bulma were obviously in awe at the natural beauty, thier eyes wide and shining with excitement.

"Wow!" Bulma said after a long while of studying the entire area thouroughly with her eyes.

"You can say that again." Chi-Chi smiled, looking at her.

All of the men were being reserved about their feelings, standing behind the eager females, all of thier arms folded across their chests,
studying the area with a hidden intrest. They all admitted in their minds it was quite a sight to behold.

Suddenly they were yanked out of their thoughts as each of them were seized by the wrists and pulled forward. Bulma, Chi-Chi,
and Karina were dragging them torwards the waterfall, all chatting excitedly at once, making it hard to understand a word.
They blinked, suprised and caught themselves before they fell forward and walked obediantly after their women.

Once at the edge of the lake-like pond beneath the waterfall they stopped dragging the men and chatted more about how
this place would make a lovely picture.

"I just remembered!" Bulma suddenly exclaimed, digging through her pockets and pulled out a plain white dino cap,
"I brought my camera."

"Yes!" Karina smiled.

Bulma threw the capsule on the ground and a piff of smoke appeared and, when it cleared, a digital camera sat on
the lush green grass. Bulma picked it up and looked around. "Hmm...I'll set it on this stump...and then we can get all
of us in it!" she proclaimed, smiling.

"Alright." Chi-Chi said.

Piccolo and Vegeta hated taking pictures, but stood obediantly infront of the Goku to the side of them with Chi-Chi,
forcing a weird smile. Karina held Piccolo's arm affectionatly and smiled up at him before looking back to the camera.
He swallowed hard. Bulma was setting the camera up and soon called out, "Ok, get ready! Ten seconds!" She ran over to
them and stood next to Vegeta, grinning at the camera. She took his hand and he blushed slightly as the picture was taken
with a flash.

Bulma picked up the digital camera and looked at the picture. She smiled at Vegeta, "Vegeta, you blushed."

Piccolo and Goku smirked as he blushed a little brighter red.

"Hey, I have an idea," Chi-Chi announced out of no where. {{She always has the ideas, doesn't she..?}} "Tomorrow we can hike back up here and
spend the night!"

"Sounds fun." Bulma smiled.

"Yeah! Lets set camp here. It's much better then down there! I mean, why wait untill tomorrow? Lets get all the stuff up here now."

"Good idea." Chi-Chi nodded, turning to the guys, "Lets go get the stuff and bring it up here."

"I'm...so...hungry!" Goku said over-dramatically. He was laying on his back, hands on his stomach.

Chi-Chi sweatdropped, "If you help, we will eat right afterwards."

Goku jumped up, suddenly cheery, "Alright!" The other two men sweatdropped.

"Well lets get started." Karina said, and began going down the steep hill they had climbed not long ago.

They spent hours climbing the hill and going down again, thier arms full of their stuff. Once Goku was on his way down while Chi-Chi was
going up. Goku had slipped and fell on his rear, then slid down the path, knocking nito Chi-Chi, which fell onto him and slid the rest
of the way down, sitting in his lap, facing him, hugging onto him scaredly.

Goku apologized once they reached the bottom and stood up. He rubbed the back of his head and Chi-Chi noticed his pants were now
muddy. {{Remember it rained earlier.}}

"It's ok Goku." she assured him, "Go change, your jeans are filthly."

"Alright." Goku obeyed, heading over to his stuff which still was packed. He changed right there, but it didn't matter because he didn't
change out of his boxers, so Chi-Chi didn't see anything anyways. {{heh heh}} They headed up the hill again, Chi-Chi picking up
the things she had dropped on the slide down.

The sun was on the horizon as they finished moving everything up there. They all sat, watching the sun set, it's rays shining brightly and the sun itself an intense orange.
They had to look away as it sunk behind the horizon because it was so bright. You could still see orange light above the mountains where
it had disappeared.

"Well," Bulma smiled, sighing slightly, "That was beautiful.."

"Yeah.." Karina agreed.

"We better set up..." Piccolo said, looking at everything, which they had just dumped into a pile on the ground.

"True." Vegeta said.

"But we haven't eaten yet!" Goku whined.

"How about you guys set up.." Chi-Chi suggested, "And we will start dinner," she motioned to Bulma, Karina, and herself.

"Fine.." Goku sighed, walking over to the pile of stuff, "I just hope I don't die of starvation first."

"That makes two of us." Vegeta muttured, his stomach rumbling loudly.

By the time everything was set up and dinner was ready, the stars were over head and sparkling gently in the navy blue sky.
They sat around the fire, all eating heartily. They had missed lunch after all, and were all very hungry, though not half as hungry
as the two saiyans, who were almost constantly hungry anyways.

When they finished the delicious meal, steak and mashed potatoes, they sat contently around the crackling fire which seemed to dance
happily, the light from the flames jumping up and down on the ground. They all sat in content silence, looking up at the stars.

"Wow, the veiw is much better here.." Bulma said quietly, her voice somewhat in awe of the beauty around here.

The others nodded silently, agreeing.

"Well.." Piccolo said, breaking the silence, "It's 10:00P.M..."

"So?" Vegeta said, not giving the green one a chance to continue.

"C'mon Piccolo, we don't have school or anything to go to tomorrow, we can sleep in." Goku said.

Piccolo sighed, "True...but I was thinking we should try to get on a regular sleeping track before school starts.."

"It will be fine," Vegeta growled slightly.

Piccolo scowled at his attitude, but said nothing further. They layed on the grass, listening to the never ending sound of rushing water,
enjoying the warmth of the summer night, and staring at the stars. Karina and Piccolo layed together, as well as Chi-Chi Goku, and Bulma
and Vegeta. They all layed in different places a ways apart.

Piccolo looked down at Karina, who had layed her head agianst his chest, his arm around her shoulders. She was asleep.
He smiled slightly, then looked back up at the gentle night sky.

~*Day 4 - Thursday *~

Vegeta's eyes snapped open as the sun shone down on his face. He blinked and looked to the side of him. Bulma was cuddled
up agaisnt him, still asleep, his arm around her. 'I must have fallen asleep...' He thought, gently removing his arm and sitting up, being
careful not to wake her. He looked around to see the others asleep on the ground as well. He stood, instantly realizing an annoying
pain in his back.

Minutes later Piccolo twitched in his sleep and his eyes opened slowly. He looked around, not sure where he was at first. He tried to move one of his arms
but Karina was still laying on his arm, which was wraped around her waist. He blushed slightly, pulling it out from under her.
He sat up, yawning slightly, and glanced around. Bulma was lying alone and Chi-Chi and Goku were lying, arms wrapped around each other.
'I guess we all fell asleep out here...' Piccolo thought, 'But where's Vegeta?'

He saw movement to his left and looked in that direction. Vegeta was on his knees infront of the pond beneath the waterfall, leaning
over it and dipping his hands, cupped together, into the water. Piccolo watched him splash the water in his face and then stood up.
He walked over to him as he dried his face with his shirt. Vegeta looked over his shoulder at him, then stood, turning to him.
He nodded as a greeting. Piccolo returned the nod.

"We set up the tents and didn't even use them last night," Vegeta said quietly with a smirk.

Piccolo nodded, then whispered, "Lets let the girls sleep, but move them to their beds in their tent."

"Alright," Vegeta said, walking over to Bulma and knealing at her side, slipping his hands under her legs and back and lifting her from the
ground. She stirred slightly, but remained asleep. Piccolo did the same with Karina and they carried them into the girl's tent and
layed them each on a bed, not sure who's was who's. They walked out to Goku and Vegeta kicked him in the lower back with
his foot, but not too hard.

Goku mumbled something and held Chi-Chi closer. Vegeta growled and kicked him, gently, again and again, not stopping until
he finally awoke. He blinked and yawned, them smiled at Chi-Chi in his arms. Piccolo whispered for him to put her to bed.
He stood up, her still wrapped in his arms, and gently carried her inside. He returned to the other two, stretching and yawning.

"Hey this would be a great chance to do a little outdoor training," Vegeta smirked, his eyes flashing slightly in the sun.

"Hmm.." Piccolo looked thoughtful.

"But guys!" Goku squeaked, "Do you remember what happened last time?!"

"Yes..but we wont hurt each other this time...well...as badly anyways," Piccolo said.

"If I remember correctly you were the only one hurt, Green Bean," Vegeta smirked.

"Can it, Vegetable Breathe," Piccolo growled.

Goku jumped inbetween them, "Hey guys, don't get pissed at each other. Besides, I want to fight this time!"

"Fine then, fight me," Vegeta said, pointing his thumb at his own chest.

"Heh, Okay," Goku smirked, crossing his arms.

"I suggest we go somewhere else, so not to wake the girls," Piccolo suggested.

"Good idea," Goku agreed, floating into the air. Piccolo and Vegeta did as well.

They flew aroundover the trees, looking for a good spot. They found another grassy flat area near a deep river and with vegatation
around the perimeter of the area. Vegeta landed in the middle of the area, glancing around, "This looks like a good spot," he announced.

"It's just fine," Goku smiled, landing as well. Piccolo touched down and looked at the two. He turned and walked to the river, jumped over
it to the other side, then turned, facing them, and sat down crosslegged, watching.

Vegeta and Goku stood facing one another, both of them smirking a tthe challenge with their fists clenched. They stared into each others
eyes, not flinching at all, when suddenly they both disappeared from sight. Piccolo blinked and looked around. They suddenly reappeared
in the air, kicking and punching at one another at an incredible speed. Piccolo watched as they both skillfully dodged each other
while still attacking.

Goku kicked with his left foot and right hand at once and Vegeta blocked his fist with his arm and then Goku's kcik with his knee.
Goku took the oppertunity of vegeta focusing on the block to punch with his left and hit Vegeta right in the cheek, making the smaller
saiyan fly downward with the force. He growled as he flipped to his feet before hitting the ground and scowled up at Goku. His cheek
was slightly bruised and spat, turning his head but not looking away from Goku.

"Good hit Kakarot," Vegeta said slowly, making Goku's eyes go wide with suprise at the fact that he had actually complimented him.
Vegeta smirked at his suprised face then disappeared.

Goku blinked and looked around, "Where'd he g-"

He was cut off as he saw Vegeta higher in the air then he was, slightly ahead of him. Vegeta put his hands up, bending his fingers inward
as he put the ends of his palms together, and began yelling as he powered up a ki blast above his head. Goku growled and started
making his own, "Ka....me...."

Vegeta yelled louder as he pushed a great deal of energy into the now large energy orb above his head.

"Ha....me..." Goku continued, blue energy forming between his hands which were at his side. He was cradling the energy and baring
his teeth as he added more and more.

Vegeta finished powering up the orb and thrust it infront of him and downward, blasting it right at Goku, his whole body jerking to
toss the blast hard and fast.

"HAAA!!!" Goku yelled loudly, thrusting his palms infront of him, shooting up and meeting Vegeta's blast. They collided, but Goku's
quickly gained the upper hand and pushed Vegeta's own blast right back to him. Vegeta put his arms infront of his face, his fists
clenched and his arms crossed over one another, making an X. He was pushed back as she blast hit him, but slowly. The blast suddenly
exploded with aloud boom and a flash of bright light.

When the light cleared a smoking Vegeta fell to the ground, his arms and face bleeding. Goku floated down, panting because of the loss of
energy from the last blast. He touched down gently about a yard away from the smaller saiyan, who was wincing on the ground in pain.
Vegeta slowly got up, breathing hard, one eye closed. He growled as he looked at Goku, slouching.

Goku gained control of his breathing and scowled back, standing straight. Vegeta did as well, wincing.

"This fight isn't over, Kakarot," Vegeta growled, sliding into fighting stance stance.

"No.." Goku agreed, but then smirked, sliding into fighting stance as well, "but I will finish it now."

Vegeta growled and flew at him, punching at his face. Goku ducked the punch and slammed his fist into Vegeta's gut, making him duble over
in pain, clutching his stomach. He coughed and Goku punched him back. He skidded on his back, bouncing off of the ground slightly,
before disappearing into some thick plants. Goku slowly walked forward, as Vegeta growled, standing and walking out of the plants.
Piccolo's eyes widened. He knew what kind of plant it was from taking biology. He could tell by the way it looked.
From the each of the plant's leafstalks, grew three leaflets, two on opposites sides of it and the third by itself on the tip of the leafstalk.

'Poison Ivy.' He thought hurridly, standing up.

"Vegeta!" He yelled. He knew that soon Vegeta would be feeling great irritation, but he had to try to get him to wash himself thouroughly,
to help prevent worse irritation of the skin.

"What is it?" Vegeta growled, turning his head impateintly to Piccolo.

"You just landed in Poison Ivy!"

Vegeta blinked and looked back at the plants he had just come out of. He was right, it was Poison Ivy. He had taken biology as well.

"Crap!" Vegeta yelled, running for the river. He quickly pulled off his shirt and jumped in and began washing himself as well as he could
with the water. When he was finished he flew into the air, Goku and Piccolo right behind him as he headed back to camp.

"What is Poison Ivy?" Goku asked Piccolo, blinking. He hadn't taken biology. {{-_-;}}

Piccolo quickly explained and they touched down on the grass of the campsite, Vegeta running into the girls tent, for he knew that's
where the first aid kit was. He wanted to see if there was any calamine lotion, for he knew that he needed it to treat his skin, which was already
begining to itch badly, and was turning a light shade of red. Piccolo and Goku heard the girls scream, and watched a blushing Vegeta
rocket out of the tent.

Piccolo and Goku blinked, then asked in unision, "What happened?"

Vegeta scratched his arm, both out of embarrasment and the annoying itch that had developed, "They were getting dressed." He blushed brighter.

Goku's eyes widened, "Did you see anything?" He asked.

"No!" Vegeta growled then looked down, saiying quietly in an embarrased, "They had their undergarments on.."

Goku chuckled slightly at his friends embarrasment, and was about to make another comment when the three girls rushed out, all blushing.
You could tell that they had quickly gotten dressed, by the way their clothing was on. Sloppy and wrinkled, a sign of rush.

"Vegeta what the heck were you doing?!" bulma growled, blushing the brightest of the girls, "You didn't even knock!"

Goku was about to say, 'Well there was no door to knock on,' but thought better of it and kept his mouth shut.

"Kakarot punched me into Poison Ivy!" Vegeta said quickly, pointing to Goku, who tried to sputtered an appology.

"Well I didn't mean to!" He said, after getting the evil eye from all three girls, "We were fighting and-"

"Fighting!?" Chi-Chi interruped, growling.

Goku looked downward to avoid the angry gaze of Chi-Chi's eyes, "Yeah we were bored so we thought we might as well train
a little..." he trailed off, looking up at her again with appologetic eyes, rocking back and forth on his heals, his hands behind his back.

Chi-Chi was about to cold the three men but Bulma interrupted, "C'mon Vegeta," she said, yanking him into the girls tent,
"We have to tent to it before it gets really bad."

Vegeta was already really itching, his skin tinted red from the Poison Ivy. He layed on the bed as Bulma produced calamine lotion
from the first kit and applied it all over his arms, legs, and chest. She told him to turn over, and he obeyed. She then got his back.

Vegeta scratched at his legs as he sat up in the bed when Bulma was finished. She sighed and kissed him on the forehead.
He looked up at her in silent gratitude and smiled slightly, reaching up and gently taking her chin in his hand. He brought her
lips to his and they kissed passionatly, Vegeta temporarily forgetting about the incessent irritation of his skin.

~* Day 5 - Friday *~

They all awoke around the same time the next day, Vegeta still itching, Chi-Chi still mad about the fact that they fought, and Goku
well....hungry...as usual.

"How are you feeling?" Bulma asked Vegeta as they sat around the fire, eating a breakfast of cereal and milk kept fresh by the cooler.

"...Itchy," He replied after a short pause, and began on another bowl of cereal, making it his fourth.

Bulma blinked at the blunt answer and then sighed slightly, finishing her first bowl. She then pushed it away, not hungry anymore.

They all soon had finished their cereal. They sat around the fire, trying to think of something to do. Tomorrow they were to go
to the air port and return the car, which was still down by their old campsite since it was impossible to get up there. Then they would
head to the Bahama's. The guys weren't all too excited about it, except for the fact of the beach, but the girls on the other hand
were estatic.

The topis of conversation soon turned to it, "I can't wait till Monday!" Karina exclaimed. Monday was the day they would arrive at
the spa resort.

"Me either," Chi-Chi sighed, "It will be good to have a nice week of pure relaxation."

Bulma nodded in agreement, "I could use a manicure." She held up her hand, facing the palm away from her, fingers spread as she studied
her nails.

The men looked to eachother, raising a brow/eyeridge. {{> lol}}

"And I'm sure thpse three could use a manicure as well..." Bulma said, looking at them. The three girls giggled in chorus.

"What!?" All the guys exclaimed at the same time, "Manicure!?"

"Yeah," Bulma confirmed, taking Vegeta's hand and studying his nails, "They look horrible!"

Vegeta growled, yanking his hand away, "I don't care! I am not a woman, I don't want a stupid manicure!"

"It's not only for women, silly," Bulma smiled, "It wont hurt you, besides, it comes with the whole week long package."

"Oh joy," Vegeta said sarcastically with a side long scowl.

"So, Bulma," Karina asked, "What exactly will happen throughout the week?"

Bulma looked thoughtful for a moment, her eyes cast upward to the clear light blue sky, "Well when we first arrive Yankochi,
that's the friend that agreed to hook us up witha free stay, will greet us and show us to our rooms. I said it was fine if we had two
rooms with three beds in each one, and she said that that would work out fine. Then we will get our sceduals of our treatments and activities
for the week."

"What kind of 'treatments and activities,' Bulma?" Chi-Chi asked, blinking.

Bulma continues looking up and counted off on her fingers as she named them, "Manicures, swimming, spaing, massages, peticures,
hair style treatments, jogging, and dinner, lunch, and breakfast. It will practically be a vacation that is not only healthy, but totally relaxing
and pampering," she grinned.

"Pampering?" Goku repeated the word, a confused look on his face.

"Fine treatment, Goku," Chi-Chi smiled at him.

"Oh..." Goku blinked, then asked, "What kind of food are they going to have?"

Bulma smiled wider, a slightly dreamy look crossing her face, "Oh the best! Gormet food. There will be steak, fish, salad, chicken,
and a lot of other foods, not to mention delicious deserts!"

Goku was starting to drool and Chi-Chi looked annoyed, grabbing a handful of Goku's shirt and wiping Goku's chin with it.

"WOW!" Goku exclaimed, "I love all those things! Well...except for salad. It's too vegetably for me."

"Vegetably?" Bulma raised a brow.

"Yeah, I mean it has too man vegetables. I don't like Vegetables all that much.Plus it's not very filling."

"Nothing is filling to you, Kakarot," Vegeta smirked.

"..That's true, but you should talk. You eat more then I do sometimes!"

"Heh, maybe, but still, you have to agree that it takes alot to fill your stomach, as well as mine."

Goku grinned, patting the matter at hand, "Yep, I am a growing boy!"

Vegeta sweatdroped, shaking his head slightly and muttered, "Kakarot.."

Goku just grinned, chuckling. Then he blinked, "Lets eat something. All this talk about food is making me hungry."

Everyone almost fell over.

~*Later*~

"I know what we can do!" Goku exclaimed, running into the men's tent.

The others blinked, confused, then watched Goku run out in his swimming trunks moments later.

"Lets go swimming!" He smiled, poiting to the waterfall and small lake beneath it.

"Hey, that would be fun!" Karina agreed, standing up from sitting on the grass.

"Yeah," Bulma and Chi-Chi agreed with a grin. They walked into their tent to change.

"Good, because I'm hot," Vegeta said as he stood up, wiping sweat from her brow, and started walking to the guy's tent.

"You wish," Piccolo said with a smirk.

Vegeta stopped and looked over his shoulder at him, "What?"

"Nothing," Piccolo replied, grinning.

Vegeta raised a brow and Piccolo followed him inside the tent. They returned soon after in thier swimming attire.
Minutes later, the girls came out. Karina in a black bikini, Bulma in a lavender swim suit, and Chi-Chi in a pink bikini.

Goku's trunks were orange, of corse, and Vegeta's were plain blue, as Piccolo's were black with orange flames on the sides.

Goku started running for the small lake with a large grin and yelled, "BONZAI!"

He was just about to spring off of the edge and jump in with a large cannonball, but slipped on some mud and slid into the lake
oddly on his back. Piccolo and Vegeta smirked and snickered as Chi-Chi ran to the lake, the other two girls looking suprised.

"Goku are you okay!?" Chi-Chi asked, trudging through the water to her boyfriend who had surfaced and was gasping for breath.

He coughed, "Yeah, I'm fine."

Chi-Chi looked a little worried until he gave her a reassuring grin, in which she took comfort and her expression relaxed.

Piccolo looked up at the water fall and an idea came to him. He jumped from the ground and flew to the waterfalls top and landed on the
rocky edge right near the falling water. He smirked and looked down at Chi-Chi and Goku, who were some ways off to the side of him.
He looked at the water and thought as he studied it's depth, 'Looks deep enough.'

He smirked again and jumped off of the wet rocks into the air, feeling a cool breeza hit him. He ignored it and as he fell torward
the water he put his hands together in a diving position, and dived into the water, rocketing torwards the bottom. with a few swift
strokes he curved upward again and his head broke the surface of the water and he took in a deep breath.

Karina and the others were clapping, well, except for Vegeta of course.

He swam to the edge of the lake, where Vegeta smirked and walked up to him, his arms crossed.

"You think that was good? Watch this," Vegeta smirked as he flew to where Piccolo had stood atop the waterfall.

He jumped into the air, bringing her knees to his chest and holding them there with his arms, and fell like a rock into the water
as he did a huge connon ball, and a large splash was immtited, soaking Chi-Chi and Goku.

As Vegeta surfaced Goku challened, "I bet I can make a bigger splash then that! That was weak!"

Vegeta growled, scowling at him, as he swam to the edge of the lake as Goku flew to the 'take off point.'

"Prepare to be soaked! All of you!" Goku claimed, pointing his finger at all of them in a swift movement.

He yelled, grinning as he jumped off of the rocks and into the air, his body horizontal, and his arms and legs spread.
He fell flat on his front in the water, making a loud slapping sound, and not much of a splash as he sunk into the water.

"Ooh you showed me, Kakarot!" Vegeta smirked and said sarcastically, while Goku, his whole front slightly pink, surfaced.

"Owwie!" Goku whined, "Belly flops hurt!"

Vegeta laughed and pointed at the other saiyan. Goku scowled and pouted a little as he looked at Vegeta, who continued laughing.

"Shut up!" Goku ordered, though it didn't really make much of a difference.

Gouk growled, "I'm warning you Vegeta...if you don't stop laughing at me I'll..."

"You'll what?" Vegeta smirked as he stopped laughing to hear him. This amused him.

Without a word, Goku smilpy smirked and put his hand on Vegeta's head, shoving him down under the water.
The slightly smaller saiyan coughed in suprise as he was dunked, and struggled to get up again, but Goku kep his head
firmly under, not allowing him to move much. Vegeta coughed more, starting to loose all his breath, and finally Goku
let him up and pointed and laughed at Vegeta re-surfaced and inhaled gasps of air, coughing and sputtering.

As soon as Vegeta regained control of his breathing he tackled Goku into the deeper portion of the lake, holding him under on the
lake bottom and grabbing his hair and slamming the back of his head into the mud. Goku struggled and finally gained control as
Vegeta started to swim up for air, but Goku stopped him by grabbing his ankle and slamming him into the lake bottom muck,
then did the same thing that Vegeta had done to him.

A little later both saiyans emerged, gasping for air, and coughing. Both were muddy.

They growled and Goku was the first to jump on Vegeta, pushing him under water, as well as going under himself.
They rolled and tumbled in the water, unaware of the death glares they were recieving from Chi-Chi and Bulma.
Piccolo, on the other hand, was rooting them on and laughing. Karina watched with a half amused, half worried look,
as if somewhat afraid they would hurt each other badly.

They surfaced for breath and were about to punce on one another again and continue fighting beneath the water, when both
Chi-Chi and Bulma swam swiftly up to them, Bulma grabbing Vegeta by the ear, and Chi-Chi doing the same with Goku.

The two saiyans blinked and tried to turn thier heads to the women, but as they did they felt sharp pain as thier ears pulled
and stretched, the girls continueing to hold tightly onto them. They yelped slightly, wincing.

"Do you EVER learn!?" Bulma growled and led Vegeta sternly to shallow water as he swam reluctantly behind her.
Chi-Chi was doing the same with Goku.

Neither of the two answered Bulma's question and meerly avoided looking straight into the eyes of the two angry females.

"First you had to fight Piccolo," Bulma scolded Vegeta, "Then yesterday you fought Goku, and now you are fighting him again!"

"Yeah, Goku, you should not be so immature!" Chi-Chi said sternly to the spikey haired saiyan.

Goku was looking at his feet, which were under water. The water was up to thier waists as they stood close to the shore.
"We were just playing around.." He said, rocking back and forth on his heals with his hands behind his back. He soon had bit his
tounge, wishing he had not answered at all.

"Playing around?!" Chi-Chi repeated, flaring up angrily, "More like rough housing! You guys know that you are strong! Did it ever
occure to you that you guys might drown each other under water accidently?!"

"Yeah, then you would have to give Goku mouth-to-mouth," Piccolo smirked. He and Karina were now sitting and watching on the grass.
Piccolo laughed as Chi-Chi and Goku blushed, Chi-Chi starting to look even madder.

"SHUT UP!!!" She yelled after storming up to Piccolo. She yeled it right in his ear. He yelped in pain and put his hands over his sensitive ears.

"YOU DON'T HAVE TO MAKE ME GO DEAF, WOMAN!" He yelled back at Chi-Chi, who didn't really seem to be affected by it.
She just gave a small 'hmph' and walked back to Goku.

"Chi-Chi," Goku started fastly before she could start yelling at him, "We're really sorry. We just like fighting and we wont hurt each other
becuse we are both strong enough to take it. Just let us fight sometimes, I mean it's not like we are killing each other."

He had said the whole thing very quickly, as if afraid Chi-Chi would cut him off if he paused very long at all.

Chi-Chi looked at him for a moment with a thoughtful look on her face, her anger slowly edging away as she looked at Goku's
innocent and appologetic face. She looked at Bulma, who looked back. They both smiled a little, turning their heads to Vegeta
and Goku again.

"Well we have to admit..." Bulma smiled, "You guys are good fighters. We suppose you shouldn't let yourselves loose the talent."

"But," Chi-Chi added, "Do be careful. We don't want you guys to get hurt."

The two smirked and nodded, Vegeta crossing his arms. Vegeta sighed, the smirk dropping as he felt the feeling of being controlled.
'What am I, a dog?' He asked himself, raising a brow. He looked Bulma up and down slowly, then answered his own question with
a small smirk.


{I bet your wondering what he thought...well I'm not telling you! Use your imagination! Muahahahaha!}

~*~ That Night ~*~

"Well, tomorrow we need to pack up and head back downhill, then we need to go to the airport," Bulma announced after
they had finished dinner.

"Alright," Chi-Chi said as the others nodded, with the exception of Piccolo and Vegeta, who meerly just looked at her with an
expression that seemed to tell her that they understood.

"I'm going to bed," Vegeta said and stood up, "I'm pretty beat."

"Yeah, beat up," Piccolo smirked, recieving a glare from the saiyan.

"Shut up, Green Bean," He growled as he began walking off torwards the men's tent.

"Vegetable Breath," Piccolo shot back.

"Lizard Man," Vegeta said, stopping and turning back to him.

"Vegetable Head."

"Green Giant."

"Vegetable Shrimp."

"Green Loser."

"Veggie Freak."

"Moron."

"Idiot."

"Loser."

"Jer k."

"Uhh..."

Piccolo blinked. He couldn't thinkof any other names to call him. {Actually I have a few in mind..but this story is PG, sorry!
Can't use bad words in here.}

"Ha!" Vegeta pointed to Piccolo, "I win!"

Piccolo glared and muttered, "Fag."

Vegeta growled, clinching his fists and stormed torward, but before he could reach him Bulma stepped in his path, a hand extended
to his face.

"Stop right there." Bulma warned with a scowl.

He started walking past her, "You said we could fight if we want, now let us fight!"

"Yeah, but fight in a freindly way!"

"Woman! Fighting isn't exactly 'friendly,' so there's no way we can fight in a 'friendly' way!"

"You know what I mean, Vegeta!" Bulma growled, putting emphisis on the word "know."

He didn't reply and tried to pass her again, but she stepped in his way.

"You are NOT hurting Piccolo!"

"Him? Hurt me? I-" Piccolo was about to continue but Bulma cut him off, turning to him.

"Shut up!" She yelled. Piccolo winced slightly at the loud noise as Bulma continued, "The point is you are not fighting each other!"

"But you said-" Goku was cut off as well.

"I said," Bulma said, looking at him, "you can fight sometimes. Not when you are just angry at each other. Right now you aren't going to fight!"

Vegeta growled and turned, walking to the tent. Bulma shook her head, "Men..."

~*~ The Final Day - Saturday ~*~

As soon as everyone had moved everything downhill and into the car, they had all stood looking at where they had camped,
admiring the waterfall and it's beauty.

Bulma pulled out her camera again and took a few pictures of the scenery, then they all made thier way down the hill again.

Bulma was the first to go down, then Vegeta, Piccolo, Goku, Chi-Chi, and Karina. Goku accidenlty slipped and yelped as he slid
down the muddy hill and collided with Piccolo, who fell and slid down on his stomach with Goku on his back until they hit Vegeta.
Vegeta slid down on his rear, Piccolo behind him, and Goku behind Piccolo. They then hit Bulma, who fell into Vegeta's lap.
They all looked suprised and squinted thier eyes shut as the leaves of low branches hit thier faces. The finally sldi to a stop once
the ground leveled out and they stood.

All gave Goku a blaming glare.

"I'm sorry!" Goku appologized as he sweatdropped, rubbing the back of his head.

They dug their suit cases from the car and got out fresh sets of clothing. Chi-Chi and Karina, who had been lucky enough to be behind
Goku when he fell, were not muddy so they just watched, slightly amused.

Everyone got behind seperate trees and quickly changed and then emerged again, near the car.

"Now we can finally go," Bulma said, smiling slightly at Goku, who rubbed the back of his head again, grinning goofily, looking at the ground.

They all got into the car in the spots they had sat in before, and got comfortable before Bulma started up the car and they drove
down the bumpy dirt road and finally arrived, 30 minutes later, to the main road that was smooth, black pavement.

Bulma snapped on the radio and smiled as they pulled onto the high way, "Next stop, Forida International Airport!"
