Drops of sweat rolled down his face as Vegeta struggled to his feet under the ridiculous gravity he had set. He set his teeth and continued through his training. It was too much for his base form, and he knew it, but still he went on until he could not move. Vegeta lay there, eyes tearing up as the pain in his body increased. Any minute now the gravity would shut off due to a lack of movement.
But it didn't.
"Shit," he growled, and tried to get up. He just couldn't. "Shit! No..." Neither could he even crawl to the panel to manually shut it off. It was malfunctioning. The doors were locked until gravity was at a normal level, so no one could get in. He couldn't make it to the comm switch.
Suddenly he heard a weird sound, then a shriek of alarm. Vegeta managed to turn his head and saw his goofy rival on the floor, blinking. "Kakarrot, shut off the gravity," he barked.
"I- I can't move!" Goku squeaked.
"Turn into a Super Saiyan, you baka!"
"Oh!" Goku powered up and, with relative ease, shut off the gravity. The sharp contrast made Vegeta's head pound and he felt as if he was floating. He groaned and rolled onto his back, panting. Goku's face suddenly appeared over his. "What were ya doing with the gravity that high? I mean, if ya were a Super Saiyan, that'd be fine, but normal? Ya must be crazy."
"Don't you dare lecture me, third class!" Vegeta snapped, using the wall to help support his shaking body. "I knew what I was doing. The automatic reversal malfunctioned. If it hadn't I would have been fine."
Goku backed up a step, raising his hands defensively. "Hey, don't say that like it's my fault. I'm just glad I showed up when I did. Otherwise ya might have been stuck there for ages." He put his hands on his hips. "Now come on. We need-"
"- to go! Geta, wake up! Whis is gonna be here to get us any second!"
Vegeta snorted, jerking awake. Goku was dancing around anxiously. "We gotta go! Get up! Did ya hear me? Whis is coming, remember? Get up!"
"I'm awake, idiot," Vegeta groaned and pulled his pillow over his head. "Why are you in my room? What time is it?" He sat up groggily. He was not at all pleased about being awoken so suddenly; it always left him feeling like a zombie. He stared blearily at the clock until the numbers registered properly in his mind. 9:30!!! He leapt up, knocking Goku to the floor. "Baka! You should have woken me up an hour ago! Shit, shit, shit! Shit!" He hurriedly yanked on his armor, only half listening to Goku's excuses.
"I thought ya were already awake and was just waiting like me, but then ya didn't come, and I got a little worried, and I came here and found ya still sleeping, but I didn't wanna wake ya cause ya get mad at me when I do stuff like that but then I realized that ya weren't gonna get up in time and-"
"I get it!" Vegeta snapped, pulling on his boots.
Then Whis's voice echoed through the room. "Good morning, boys! Are you ready?"
"Yes," Vegeta said, although his stomach snarled in protest. "Are you almost here-?"
Whis appeared, smiling brightly at his two pupils. "I see that you and Goku are already getting used to being in each other's company! That's good; you two will be spending almost every minute of the day together."
"What!?" they said as one.
"I am not going to be constantly harassed by this baka," Vegeta bit out, and Goku said at the same time, "But Vegeta's always bullying me; can't we train separately?" They looked at each other, Vegeta more surprised than Goku. Goku thought that Vegeta... bullied him? The Prince blinked, then looked away.
