The bet


The next morning Trunks and Son Goten were the first to be awake. Son Goten first woke his brother. (or at least tried to) “Gohan!” He shook Son Gohan. "GOHAN!" "I think he won't wake up anymore." whined Trunks. "He has to! Playing with two is not so much fun ... SON GOHAN!" "What?" Son Gohan yawned. “Are you going to play?” “Neee” He yawned again. "Why not?" Trunks asked sadly. “I'm tired.” He just said and turned around and pulled the covers over his head. "Sleepyhead." said Son Goten. Let's just go alone, right Trunks? " "Exactly."


When Gohan woke up again, his brother and Trunks were no longer in the room. Downstairs in the kitchen he heard dishes rattling. The water ran in the bathroom. People were talking outside. Gohan prick up his ears. `One sounds like Dad. And who is the other one? `Son Gohan held his breath so as not to make any noise.Yes, of course ... 'That's Grandpa! `Son Gohan hadn't expected that at all. 'What are they talking about? `But as hard as he tried, he couldn't hear. So he struggled out of bed and looked for his things from the day before. What he didn't know at that moment was that his father and Muten Roshi were talking about him ...


“I'm really sorry, Muten Roshi.” “Don't have to.” Muten Roshi said, not quite convincingly. "I really don't understand why he ran away from you. Usually he is open to everything and everyone." "What I understand even less is that he then lets Piccolo of all people pick him up." Afraid of him. Did you notice how he came running to me again as soon as he looked at Piccolo? "" Yes. It looked quite funny. "He grinned and then continued:" I just want to know what Piccolo rode to get up and take him. "" Well, I can't tell you either, but you can ask him."" I renounce ... "Muten Roshi said. Even if Piccolo had proven that he no longer worked against her, he did not want to irritate or anger him in any way.


Meanwhile, Gohan, who had meanwhile exchanged his pajamas for his yellow clothes from the day before, trotted into the bathroom. He pulled a small stool from under the sink and climbed up. Now he could at least bend over the sink. As he picked up his toothbrush tumbler, he looked in the mirror. He made a face. His hair was back and forth. 'One by one. First brush your teeth. So he filled his mug with water, smeared toothpaste on the brush, and started brushing.


After he had combed his hair, he put the stool back in its old place and left the bathroom. Since he was not yet very good at climbing stairs, he had to hold on to the railing and go down step by step.When he got to the middle of the stairs, he could see into the kitchen. `Mummi and Aunt Bulma have already finished breakfast. `He was happy, because actually it was only his stomach to blame that he was out of bed now. Then he saw Krulilin and Muten Roshi, who were helping to carry them out. He quickly crouched down on the step where he was sitting. `Not that crazy grandpa is coming back. 'He watched them leave the house through the front door. (Good observation post, I'd say * g *) When they didn't come back, he got up and continued to work his way out. Finally someone came through the door. Gohan stopped immediately. `Please not this grandpa. `But it wasn't Muten Roshi, it was Son Goku. “Daddy!” Son Goku turned to the stairs and saw his son crouching on a step. "Well, big guy. Shall I help?" "But you can do this little piece on your own. Come on."Gohan nodded and climbed on." Goku, where are you. We can't do everything. "Chi Chi shouted annoyed. Son Gohan was almost downstairs. It separated him only half a meter from his father's arms. At that moment Piccolo came in. He had heard Chi Chi complain and wanted to help Just like the others had done. Of course, Son Gohan did not miss it. For a split second, he no longer paid attention to the stairs, he wanted to go to the "green uncle". But he missed the step and fell forward. Son Goku Of course, his son's carelessness did not escape him. He caught the little one in a flash. "That almost went wrong, didn't it, big boy? "Gohan grinned sheepishly." But only almost. "Piccolo had stopped in front of the kitchen door. Now he smiled. For a moment he actually thought that something could happen to the boy. But actually he knew Son Goku, so he really shouldn't have worried." Piccolo!If you're already here, please take something out with you! "Chi Chi had of course not noticed anything from the incident. Rather, her patience was slowly but surely tearing." Men! They are all the same! "Now Vegeta came in. He pushed past Piccolo into the kitchen. Bulma gave him a kiss on the cheek and pressed a plate of pancakes into his hand. "Thank you!" she whispered in his ear. Vegeta just nodded and then disappeared again. Chi Chi sighed. She never thought that Vegeta would deign to help them . "Piccolo, do you take the cutlery out with you?" Bulma interrupted her thoughts. He, too, like Vegeta before him, just nodded and then disappeared outside again. Son Goku stepped into the kitchen with Son Gohan in his arms. "Where are Trunks and Son Goths actually? "Chi Chi looked up. Actually she wanted to complain to him right away. But not in front of Son Gohan." All my sparrows. "If you bring it out, you can take something out with you right away. " "That's okay. "Chi Chi handed him a cheese platter. Son Goku's mouth was already watering." Don't you dare touch the cheese! "" Sure. "Son Goku grinned. And then also left the kitchen.

After breakfast, when everyone (and this time really everyone) was ready, the breakfast was first of all praised. At some point, so spontaneously, Vegeta changed the subject. "Are you actually planning to train them both?" "Actually, yes." returned Son Goku. "It doesn't even come in the bag! You should learn something proper." Chi Chi rumbled off. In their eyes, their sons should be scientists or doctors. (Oh yes, always these claims ...) Vegeta gave her an annoyed look. Bulma had to smile. She had already worked through this subject with her husband. "As if the martial arts weren't proper, right?" she whispered in his ear.His face relaxed and he had to smile. Sometimes he actually felt that this woman could read his mind. “How did you manage that, Bulma?” “Well, I don't really mind if Vegeta Trunks trains. After all, that doesn't mean that he doesn't learn anything else. He can still read, write and do arithmetic and go to school on the side go. "Chi Chi hadn't expected that. She was silent and thought about it. She knew that Son Goku would be very disappointed if his offspring were not allowed to use their talent. Besides, Bulma was right in a way. Fighting wouldn't stop her sons from going to school. "I find your solution acceptable." she said carefully. Son Goku cheered. "Then I can train them both!?!" "If it absolutely has to be. But I don't want them to neglect their duties later or their school performance to suffer as a result." "That's fine with me!"Son Goku couldn't stop cheering." How long do you think it will take them to become Super Saiyan? "Asked Vegeta." I don't know. "" I bet I can turn Trunks into a better fighter than you can one of your sons in a year! "" Vegeta! The boys are only 4 years old! "Bulma hadn't expected that." Now don't get upset. You're not supposed to save the world right away. "Turning to Son Goku, he continued." If I am not mistaken, there will be another martial arts tournament next year. We let the children participate. " "You're joking, right? "Now even Son Goku was surprised." Yes. If neither of us is fighting, it shouldn't be too difficult for them. "" Mh. "Son Goku let all this go through his head again. He would have loved to say yes, but he knew that Chi Chi would give him hell. He looked at her questioningly, but she avoided his gaze.He looked at Bulma. She usually understood it better. "What do you think Bulma?" "I'm not particularly enthusiastic. But I do think that nothing can happen to the little ones if you train them properly and none of you fight." "BULMA! You are not serious, are you? The boys are still children! "" I'm not blind Chi Chi. And if you haven't noticed, this is also about my son. "Bulma didn't find it funny at all to be hit like that. Not even if the person was chi chi. She usually got along pretty well with her. But sometimes she just saw things too doggedly. There was silence.


“Good morning everyone!” “Grandpa!” Son Goten and Son Gohan ran to their grandfather, who immediately bent down and gave his grandchildren a big peck on the cheek. The boys laughed happily. "Hi Papa!" exclaimed Chi Chi. "Sit down with us. Son Goku, will you get another chair, please?" "Thank you, my child.I didn't even know you had visitors today. "" It was more of a surprise, too, "explained Krulilin." You look so sad from Chi Chi. "" Son Goku wants to train the boys ... "Muten Roshi explained.


When, after about 20 minutes, the "cattle devil" knew why his daughter was so sad, Still came back. "I think you should agree to Chi Chi." he finally said. Everyone looked at him. "Just one question. If Son Goku is only supposed to train one, what happens to the second. I don't think either of them will sit down to watch patiently." "Right." Son Goku sighed. He hadn't thought of that yet. “And what if one of you would train one of the boys?” Son Goku looked around. "That would be at a disadvantage." noted Vegeta. "Better to be at a disadvantage than not getting a chance at all." said Krulilin. "I think so too ... Piccolo, how's it going?" Son Goku asked cautiously. Piccolo just looked at him questioningly."Would you want to train one of the boys?" "That depends on whether the respective one wants that too ..." "You get on really well with Son Gohan." Son Goku grinned. "It doesn't come in the bag at all! Son Goku! The boys are staying here! I don't
