Hello!

Should there be any spelling mistakes somewhere, please excuse them, it can happen ;-)
Let's start with the first chapter of the cruise!
Have fun while reading!
-----
"The ship is MAHNSINN !!!" Trunks and Goten shout in unison and stare enthusiastically at the glass elevators that go up and down between the decks in the atrium of the ship. On the floor of the atrium, on the level of which is also the entrance, a huge marble spring fountain was placed, which, depending on the music coming from the loudspeakers, lets water fountains, gushes of water or individual drops pour into the basin from inside. Several sea figures, perfectly worked and carved in marble, surround the fountain.
The other members of the tour group also stand enthusiastically in front of the fountain before Bulma turns around the reception and walks towards them.Vegeta, however, has no view of the atrium and looks disinterested to the side, arms crossed over his chest. "What am I doing here?" he thinks in a bad mood ... "Well, at least the ship has a fitness room, I can keep fit there ..." Vegeta only agreed to go on this condition - that the ship has a fitness room ...
24 studies the fountain for a few seconds, then he says: "A perfectly acceptable job, but there are some mistakes ..." He begins to tell about the different epochs of art history and already wants to go to the fountain and see the (extremely petty) Reveal mistakes when Kame pulls him back and gives him a headbutt.
"No, you definitely will NOT do that!" she says with a grin.
"Here, I have the keys!" calls Bulma from the reception and comes back to our friends.
"Well?!? What is THAT?!?" asks Son - Goku and holds the chip card that Bulma puts into his hand, breathes him and examines it carefully."THAT is supposed to be a key? Don't they normally see something ... different?" Son - Goku makes an astonished - confused face.
Everyone gets a tear on their forehead, and Bulma explains with a sigh: "Well, today room keys look like THAT!"
"Hmm, weird ..." Goku ponders further and continues to look at the card in his hand.
Distribution of rooms: Son - Goku + Chichi + Son - Goths; Vegeta + Bulma + Trunks ("small", not from the future); Krillin + C18 + 24 (C18 had nothing against it, since she was once a cyborg herself, and Krillin was even happy that he could share a room with his "best" friend); Son - Gohan + Videl; Kame + Trunks ("large", from the future); Oob + Yamcha
"Hey, I have an idea! Everyone brings their things to the room, then we'll meet up on the sun deck! How's it going?" Chichi looks around with a beaming smile.
Everyone agrees happily (except Vegeta, who continues to mumble to himself), the group breaks up and looks for their rooms (first class of course ^^), and after the rooms have been occupied and everyone has slipped into their bathing suits, the group comes together on the sundeck about 25 minutes later.Just in time, because the ship begins to cast off, and all the passengers stand at the railings of the decks and wave to those who had to leave them behind.
The journey has started!
As soon as they are out of the harbor, the women of the group have already confiscated the deck chairs reserved (exclusively for the group) and are now being roasted in the sun. The men meanwhile jump in, around and around the pool, throw each other in, try out who can dive the longest of them (Gohan wins with almost 14 minutes; 24 is not allowed to participate, otherwise it would be "a little" unfair, after all, he doesn't need air to live) and organize swimming competitions among themselves. However, at just under 35 meters, the pool is a bit too short, after just under a second it is swam through - a fact that leaves the other bathers speechless.
All the men in Group Z take part - all except Vegeta.Under the pretext that he needs to go to the bathroom, he snuck off the deck and is now looking for the fitness room. But he has no idea where it is. Only a computer terminal is on the next corner. Vegeta walks up to it and examines it with an oblique look.
While he is still thinking, a waiter comes around the corner and abruptly stops in front of Vegeta. He bows slightly to Vegeta. "Good afternoon sir. Can I help you?"
Vegeta turns his gaze from the terminal to the waiter, who keeps smiling at him. "Where's the gym?" he asks in a somewhat sharper command tone - the tone with which Vegeta always addressed "low servants" when he was still living on his home planet. No doubt this waiter was nothing more than some kind of slave in Vegeta's eyes.
The waiter is a bit taken aback by Vegeta's tone, but he doesn’t show anything. He ponders for a moment and finally says: "To get to the fitness complex, you have to go to the E - deck, section 19."Vegeta rolls his eyes and looks annoyed at him. "And how do I get there? I don't even know where I am NOW!" Man, how he hated it when nobody took him for granted! Should he perhaps still draw what he wanted for the person on a large card?!?
Instead of answering, the waiter nods towards the computer terminal. "This terminal will give you all the information you need about this ship."
Before Vegeta can say anything else, a door opens in the corridor and a woman's head with dark brown curls appears. "Damn it, Simon, come here at last, I really need you here!"
The waiter's smile fades and he turns to leave. Over his shoulder he says to Vegeta: "Forgive my rudeness, but duty calls ...", and the waiter runs towards the door from which the woman's head came.
Vegeta turns to the terminal, exasperated. He is amazed to find that there is no keyboard to enter anything ...While Vegeta tries to find her way to the gym, our friends have a lot of fun on the sundeck. Son - Goten and Trunks try to take part in the water polo, which takes place in the smaller water basin, but the goalkeeper of the opposing team gives up after Son - Goten pounds the first ball into the goal. Son - Goku tries his hand at clay pigeon shooting, but he is so clumsy with the weapon that he shoots the hat off an older man's head. "Oops ... Um, sorry! Don't come back!" he shouts to the angry man, while he goes cursing loudly across the deck and picks up his hatched hat.
Son - Goku tries a few more times with the rifle, but it doesn't help - he doesn't hit the target.
"Oh, it won't work that way!" he says and throws the rifle to the steward who is watching the shooting. "It's much easier this way!" And he aims his hand at the newly started clay disc and shoots it into a thousand pieces with a small ball of energy.All the guests then stare again with open mouths at Son Goku, only Oob, who had been watching his "master", claps his hands. "A good shot, master! Let me take it!"
Oob is about to "put on" when something round hits him hard on the back of the head.
"Ahh! I'm sorry, Oob, really, that wasn't on purpose!"
Gohan had hit the volleyball of the group he and Videl were playing "a little" too hard, and it raced through the volleyball net, sailed halfway across the deck and hit Oob in the head. He stumbles forward a bit, but catches himself again immediately, grabs the ball lying next to Son - Goku, who has to laugh so hard that he lies on the floor, and calls out angrily to Gohan, who is also laughing: "THAT YOU'LL GET BACK !!! "Oob throws the ball high into the air, bounces off - and hits the ball so hard that it flies towards Gohan at almost the speed of sound.
But before the ball reaches Gohan, Trunks jumps over."Hey, I'll take part too!" he exclaims and hits the volleyball as it rushes with such force that it flies back to Oob.
"Hey, wait for me, me too!"
Son - Goten jumps to Trunks' side.
Oob strikes again and smashes the ball back at the two boys.
Now the three begin a kind of tennis game, because they repeatedly smash the volleyball back to their "opponents" over the deck. The other guests watch this spectacle with almost palm-sized eyes.
But just as Oob is about to back up again, Goku jumps in between.
"HA !!! It's mine!"
But Goku hits a little too hard - the ball does not race back, but literally explodes as soon as Goku touches it. There is a loud bang, similar to a pistol shot, and the remains of the ball fall limp to the ground.
Son - Goku sees the pathetic remains of the volleyball and looks around.All the guests take turns staring at him, Oob, Trunks and Son-Goten.
"I ... I think I need a break!" he says with a laugh and quickly moves to the bar.
There is already 24 sitting on it and easily has a dozen empty glasses in front of him and just as many full glasses that are filled with a wide variety of drinks.
"Hey 24, what are you doing?" asks Son - Goku happily.
24 picks up a glass filled with a brown liquid and looks carefully at it from all sides. “I check whether the alcohol content of the spirits matches the information from the waiter.” He puts the glass to his lips and drinks it in one gulp. He doesn’t change a face. "Single malt whiskey. About three years old. Alcohol content about 38.452 percent. According to the waiter, it's at least 40 percent. Another misjudgment." He puts the glass next to the other empty glasses and wants to take the next one.The bartender meanwhile scowls at 24 and cleans the glass he is holding so hard that it shatters.
But as soon as 24's fingers touch the next glass, he gets a blow on the back of the head, which makes him "nod" forward. Son - Goku looks to the side and recognizes his sister Kame, who is standing next to 24 snorting.
"Didn't I tell you to stop doing that?!?" she yells sweetly in his ear, and some bathers turn around and look at them. "This is just embarrassing about you !!!"
"But came on, I have to check the quality of the drinks."
"Damn it, can't you at least ONCE act normally?!?"
Son - Goku watches the exchange of words between
