Dragonball: Once more, with feeling!

Vegeta stood in the center of the gravity room staring at the meter which read 600G's thinking of Son Gokuu, and their first battle realizing that after all of this time he still needed a rematch. Sure he did fight against him as Majin Vegeta and Bebi but they didn't really count, as he wasn't himself. He was a Majin warrior, and then a Tsufuru-jin. He laughed to himself at the fact he had just realized this and opened his mouth...

(Vegeta)"you fled leaving everyone behind
And then my will to fight died
But you did it so calmly
You could have just laughed in my face!
It would have been less painful
Honor would have been kept for our race
You left with no explanation
Crushed your family spirits
Made them lose the will to live
Even though you left that way
They all miss you so damn much...

And I can't stand it anymooooore!
I can't stand it anymooooore!
Just take my life it's what you want!
Destroy my soul
Burn my heart
Drink the blood from my veins!
I just don't care anymooooore!

You stole what was right fully mine
And now I have no fight
I wanted the strength so badly it was like a game to me
But you got first prize and I got nothing
Is it a sick hobby of yours to make me fail?
Or is it something moooore?
You stole hearts and mended wounds except for mine
My pride damaged, my life gone
The one thing that made me complete
Gone with one swift blow
You made me feel worthless...

And I can't stand it anymooooore!
I can't stand it anymooooore!
Just take my life it's what you want!
Destroy my soul
Burn my heart
Drink the blood from my veins!
I just don't care anymooooore!

I just can't stand it anymore!
I just can't stand it anymooore!
I just can't stand it anymooooore!
Kill me if you want...

The next morning at Capsule Corporation Vegeta was waiting for the Z-Senshi to arrive. Vegeta had told no one of the events of last night and didn't think he would, but he had to know had it happened to anyone else. When the doorbell rang Vegeta sprung towards the door like it was going to attack him!
"Hey Vegeta!" Kuririn greeted him. Juuhachigou and Piccolo walked past him into the main lounge room. Tenshinhan nodded as a sign of respect. 30 minutes later Vegeta was about to close the door when Gohan, Videl, Pan, Goten and Trunks burst through.
"Gomenasai! Vegeta! We would have come earlier but Goten and Trunks asked for a lift, then Pan wanted to grab a bite eat since we'd skipped breakfast we..." Gohan trailed off.
"Sit down now all of you, or stand I don't care. I just want to know something. Did anyone else... I mean did any of you...
"What sing and dance?" Kuririn asked finishing of Vegeta's question unknowingly.
"Yes. Did anyone else burst into song and dance?" Vegeta asked again with everyone staring at him. All of the Z-Senshi began to look at each other blushing.
"Thank Kami we weren't the only ones!" Gohan and Videl said in unison. "We started singing about combat gi's, training schedules, career choices, and universities for Pan! It seemed so natural!" Gohan began laughing.
"Hopefully it won't happen again, we need to know what's causing it and why. Is it just us though?" Piccolo asked. Gohan thought for a moment but was interrupted by Juuhachigou.

(Juuhachigou)"I've got a theory!
It could be Furiza!
No wait he's dead again and that just would not work!

(Kuririn) I've got a theory!
It could Zaabon!
He seems to like this kind of thing very much so!

(Vegeta) I've got a theory it could be Kakarotto!

(Silence)

(Vegeta - Yelling gothic style) Why can't it be Kakarotto?
He's a smartassed bastard!
He's probably laughing his ass off!
And what's with his smile?
It doesn't look as good as my smirk!
Kakarotto!
Kakarotto!
It must be Kakarotto!
(Cheery style again)... Or maybe Choatzu!

(Tenshinhan) I've got theory!
We should work it out!
What's this eerie, cheery singing all about?
It can only get worse as it goes along!

(Gohan and Videl) I've got a theory!
What does this matter?
We've come up against worse and survived together!
What can't we face? What can't we beat?
The end of the world? Tenkaichi fights?
We've been through it all but now its do or die!

(Juuhachigou) Hell, I've died twice!

(Vegeta, Kuririn, Pan, Goten, and Trunks) We can work this out if we're together!
(Piccolo)...If we're together!
(Vegeta, Kuririn, Pan, Goten, and Trunks) We've faced much worse if you'll remember!
(Piccolo)...If you remember!
(Everyone) There's nothing we can't face!"

"Well that was something I never want to do again!" Tenshinhan exclaimed. Piccolo nodded in agreeance then left with Tenshinhan to talk to Dende. Goten was horrified with what he had just done.
"Maybe I'll go spend some time with Palace now. Bye."
"Yeah, I have to go and see some people." Trunks fled with Goten.
"Well we're sorry to have to leave but Kuririn and I want to go check up on these activities and see if they're happening anywhere else" Juuhachigou and Kuririn left leaving Pan, Gohan, Videl and Vegeta.
"Videl, Gohan I want to train Pan some more today, okay?
"Right. We're really grateful of you for training Pan like this for the last year or so. You’re treating her like your own Granddaughter!"
Meanwhile, Kuririn and Juuhachigou were walking around the park, looking at some of the other people dancing.
"At least it isn't only us." Kuririn said light-heatedly. Juuhachigou was looking around at all the singing and dancing a little worried. But smiled nonetheless.
"Kuririn, I'll never leave you side."
"Yeah I know! If you do I'll hunt you down and kill you!" Juuhachigou laughed as the two walked along for a while longer. All of a sudden Juuhachigou stopped.
"Hey, Juuhachi? Is something wrong?"
"Yes. Look over there." She replied pointing to a mugger fighting with a woman. Kuririn couldn't help it. He began laughing.
"Oh god that's funny!" Juuhachigou glared at him while trying to suppress her own smile.

(Woman)"Wait it's mine it's not yours!
I really don't think it's good
For you take away my things
It has my money, my id, and my photos
Just give it to me before I scream and kick your ass!
Oh god wont someone just help me! I'm asking for help!

(Man)"Quiet you bitch!
Just give me it I wont hurt you
If you just cooperate
Just hand it over now--

"You seem to be in trouble miss." Juuhachigou said smiling, before beating the mugger into submission. She picked up the bag and handed it back to the woman. "Here. Take it back, I don't think he wanted it after all!"

(Woman)"Thaaaaaannnmk yooo--"

"I can't stand this anymore! You suck at singing!" And with that Juuhachigou proceeded to beat her senseless as well!
"Hey, come one Juuhachi it's not like it's her choice to sing."
"I know that, but she sucked. I hope I can sing better."
"Nani? When do you plan on singing?"
"When ever I have to. Remember, it's not my choice." Juuhachigou turned away from Kuririn, and looked at him over her shoulder.

(Juuhachigou)"I lived my life in shadow
Never the sun on my face
It didn't seem so sad, though
I figured that was my place
Now I'm bathed in light
Something just isn't right
I'm under your control
How else could it be
Anyone would notice me?
It's your control, I can tell
How you've set me free
Brought me out so easily
I saw a world enchanted
By the light of your heart
I always took for granted
I was the only one there
But your love shone
Brighter than any I've known.
I'm under your control
Nothing I can do
You just took my soul with you
You worked your heart and words so well
Finally, I knew
Everything I dreamed was true
You make me complete!
I can feel you inside
I'm under your spell
Surging like the sea
Drawn to you so helplessly
I break with every swell
Lost in ecstasy
Spread beneath my chestnut tree
You make me complete!
You make me complete
You make me complete
You make me...
On Kami's tower Piccolo was meditating while Tenshinhan was off asking Dende about the dancing. Piccolo cringed as he heard a song and dance routine.
"Thank Kami I didn't see that!"

` (Piccolo)"You drew me out of the shadow's
You opened my heart
You treated me like a father
You were my first true friend.
I entered your world
I became close to your family
I lied to myself
I became something I'm not!

Just let me back in the shadows!
Just let me take refuge there!
I wanna leave your world!
It's hell for me here!
Just let me return to where I was!
Just let me return to where I was!

I wanna be who I was once again!
I hate what I am now!
I changed because of you
You showed me a life not my own
I entered it not knowing
That everything would end
I you look up to me so much
But what you look up to I'm not!

Just let me back in the shadows!
Just let me take refuge there!
I wanna leave your world!
It's hell for me here!
Just let me return to where I was!
Just let me return to where I was!

I'm not what you think I am
I'm supposedly a being from Namek
But I'm not even that
I'm a being from the shadows
And it's time to return
I'm gonna give back this life
'Cause it's time to return.

Just let me back in the shadows!
Just let me take refuge there!
I wanna leave your world!
It's hell for me here!
Just let me return to where I was!
Just let me return to where I was!
Just let me... return to where I was...

"Bravo Piccolo! You really should sing professionally! That rough, demonic voice could probably get you places!" Tenshinhan said clapping sarcastically.
"Shut up! Baka... so what did Dende have to say?" Piccolo asked to embarrass to look at Tenshinhan.
"Dende said that someone caused this to happen, most probably by summoning what ever caused these events." Tenshinhan replied but added on, "so is that really how you feel Piccolo? Did you change just for Gohan? Or for you?"
"I don't want to talk with you. I have to go see Gohan." Piccolo walked off and seemingly dropped of Kami's tower.
