"Click, Click, Click...BOOM!"

"Hey, guys! You gotta check this out!" Krillin yelled to Goku and Vegeta who were having a sparring match outside. Goku looked toward the "Turtle House" just as Vegeta attacked. Goku barely managed a defense in time. "You should know better than to ever take your eyes off your enemy, Kakarot! You let yourself be distracted too much! You're pathetic!" Vegeta snarled. Goku simply shrugged as he went inside. Vegeta reluctantly followed. Krillin was on Master Roshi's computer looking at sites on the internet. "You guys have got to see this!" Krillin exclaimed. Goku came closer to see what Krillin was so excited about. Vegeta crossed his arms over his chest and leaned back against the wall. "What's up, Krillin?" Goku asked. "Well, I was just checking out some things on the internet, and decided to see if there was anything about the dragonballs. My search came up with a long list of websites about us!" he replied. "Say what?!" Vegeta said in shock. "Yeah! Goku, you, me, everybody!" Krillin said. "Amazing!" Goku said as Krillin clicked on a link and a DBZ fan site appeared. Krillin went into the image gallery and they all gasped at what they saw there. "How did these people get these photos?" Vegeta wanted to know. "I don't know! This is all very strange!" Krillin replied as he scrolled through some more pages. "Oh my GOD!" Goku exclaimed when he saw a picture of him and Chi Chi having sex. "Ugh! Disgusting! I can never look at you the same way again, Kakarot!" Vegeta said, repulsed by the sight of Kakarot naked. Goku blushed, "How do they get these things?!"  Krillin quickly went to another site. "Hey! This site is devoted entirely to you, Vegeta!" Goku said. Vegeta's interest was immediate, "Move over, cueball!" Vegeta pushed Krillin off the chair and sat down. He thoroughly examined the site with keen interest. He checked out the images, was amazed by the animated graphics, and marveled over the sound clips of his voice. Vegeta could hardly believe his eyes when he found the more risque parts of the site. He blushed and quickly tried a different category called "fan fiction". The category page had only one entry so far and it had been written by the website's creator, a girl named Shelby. There was a short summary of the storyline's content and a warning that it was a "romantic lemon" fan fiction. Vegeta wasn't sure what she meant by "lemon", but he decided it was worth reading just to amuse himself. "We'll never get him off the internet now!" Krillin said to Goku. "I'm hungry! Let's go grab a snack," Goku said as his tummy rumbled. "You're always hungry!" Krillin laughed as they left the room. Vegeta ignored them and started reading, quickly becoming absorbed in Shelby's fantasy where she was a female Saiyan in love with him. He was a little shocked at first by the sexual content, but as he read more, he became very aroused. By the time he finally reached the end of the tale, he was slightly out of breath and hard as a rock! He finally noticed Goku and Krillin who had been reading over his shoulder. "How long have you two been standing there?" Vegeta demanded. "Long enough to know this girl has lost all her marbles!" Krillin said. Vegeta whipped around and grabbed him by the front of the shirt, "Why? Just because she wants me?" he growled menacingly. "Well, uh...that is...um," Krillin stammered nervously. "And why wouldn't she want me? I am the Prince of all Saiyans after all!" he said with pride. Goku, hoping to diffuse the situation, pointed to the screen, "Hey! She has her e-mail address up on the page! You can send her a message, Vegeta!"  Vegeta let Krillin go to look, "Hmmm. vegeta_lord_of_the_universe@hotmail.com eh? I like it! This girl has got style! I'm liking her more and more every minute!" Vegeta quickly sent Shelby an e-mail, hoping she would reply soon.

Shelby couldn't believe it when she read the e-mail from some guy who actually claimed to be the Prince of all Saiyans! 'A prankster!'  was what her first thought was, but something told her to send a reply. She didn't have long to wait for another message. In this one, he gave a phone number to call. She wasn't sure if she should call it though. After several minutes of debating with herself, she said, "Aw, what the heck?" After the second ring, she heard a guy pick up the phone, "Hello?" It sounded like...."Goku?" she asked hesitantly. "Yeah! Hi!" he said. "Um...I got an e-mail with this number..." she started to say. "Hey, Vegeta! It's her!" he yelled.  Vegeta grabbed the phone. "Shelby?" he asked. "Yes, it's me," she replied. "I saw your site and read your story about me. I was wondering if you would like to meet somewhere," he said, hoping she'd say 'Yes'.  "How do I know for sure this is really Vegeta?" she asked. "It is!" he replied. "Ok, so if you really are Vegeta, you can fly right?" she asked, not believing for a moment that it really was him. "Yes," he said simply. "So, you could fly to a location of my choosing in practically no time at all, right?" she said in disbelief. "Yes, wherever, just tell me what time to meet you and where," he said. "Ok, why not...meet me at the mall outside of the East entrance at 4:00 pm today in South City," she suggested. "Done!" he said, eager to meet her. "How will I find you though?" he asked. "I'll find you! You have an unmistakeable appearance! There is no way I could miss you!" she said. "Ok, see you there!" he said as they hung up. It was 3:00 pm.

Shelby couldn't believe she was actually going through with this! She showered and put on a pair of jean shorts and her favorite t-shirt (Vegeta, of course). Then, she drove to the mall and waited at the appointed place. 'Y'know, it would be fantastic if it really was him!' she thought to herself. It was 3:55 pm.

Vegeta arrived at 4:00 pm on the dot. He hovered high above the mall for a few moments, trying to guess which girl was Shelby. Finally, he decided to just go down and hope she found him like she said she would.

Shelby was just about to call herself a fool for ever even thinking it could have been him and go inside to do some shopping, when she heard excited voices exclaim, "Look at that man! He's flying!"  She spun around to look where they were pointing, and stared in astonishment as her Prince descended like a gift from heaven. Her heart skipped a beat, then with the blood pounding in her ears, she approached him. "Vegeta," she breathed in a voice filled with awe. Those beautiful, intense eyes looked into hers, and she felt her heartbeat pick up speed. Then he smiled, and she thought for sure the ground had dropped out from beneath her feet. He was even more amazing in person!

Vegeta studied her, liking what he saw. "Shelby?" he asked. She nodded, speechless from being so close to him. The curious onlookers were beginning to get on Vegeta's nerves. "Can we go somewhere less crowded?" he asked, annoyed by the idiotic humans. Shelby noticed the people around them were staring at them,so she nodded and said, "Let's go!" She wrapped her arms around him, then blushed when he looked down at her questioningly. "I can't fly like you," she explained. He raised an eyebrow at that, but when she would have leet go of him, he wrapped an arm around her and took off. She heard the exclamations of awe and disbelief as they flew into the sky, but didn't look back. A few minutes later, he broke the silence, "So, you're not really a female Saiyan after all."  She looked into his eyes, "No, but I wish I was!" He glanced at her in surprise, "Really?" he asked.  "Yes! Being a human is ok, I guess, but I would much rather be a Saiyan!" she replied. She meant it too, he could tell by the look in her eyes that she really did want to be a Saiyan. "Hmmm.....I wonder....," he murmered to himself. Vegeta thought about if for a few minutes. "There might be a way to do it," he said at last. "You mean it?!" she exclaimed. "I think it's possible, but are you sure...?" he asked. "Yes!" she said firmly. "Ok then, let's go for it!" he said, increasing his speed. "What are we going for?" she had to yell to be heard over the rush of wind. "The dragonballs of course!" he said matter-of-factly. She gasped, "They really exist?!"  "Of course they exist! I've held them in my own two hands!" he said. Shelby was about to say, 'I'll believe it when I see it!', but then she realized, 'He's here, so maybe they are real!'
