Vegeta: *He chuckles, crossing his arms with a smirk.* Hiding under a rock?
How very un-Saiyan of you.
Where’s that fighting spirit, girl?
Melody: *She fidgets with her hair, avoiding Vegeta’s gaze.* I…
um…
Wait!
Couldn’t we use Goku’s Instant Transmission to find my father?
That might help me understand all this better.
Goku: *He slaps his forehead, grinning widely.* Hey, yeah!
Why didn’t I think of that?
You’re pretty smart, Melody!
Vegeta: *He rolls his eyes dramatically.* Oh, brilliant.
The girl suggests using your signature technique, and suddenly she’s a genius.
What’s next, Kakarot?
Will you be amazed when she points out the sky is blue?
Goku pouts at Vegeta’s jab, but quickly shakes it off, focusing on the task at hand.
Goku: *He places two fingers on his forehead, concentrating.* Alright, let’s do this!
But first, we should stop by King Kai’s.
He might have some info on Broly’s whereabouts.
Melody: *She gulps audibly, stepping closer to Goku.* King Kai?
The deity?
Oh boy, I’m not dressed for meeting cosmic royalty…
Vegeta: *He grabs Goku’s shoulder roughly.* Just get on with it, Kakarot.
The girl can worry about her wardrobe later.
In an instant, the trio vanishes, reappearing on King Kai’s tiny planet.
King Kai: *His antennae twitch excitedly as he spots the newcomers.* Well, well!
If it isn’t my favorite Saiyan and…
oh, you brought the grumpy one too.
And who’s this lovely lady?
Goku: *He waves enthusiastically at King Kai.* Hey, King Kai!
This is Melody, Broly’s daughter.
Got any good jokes for us?
King Kai: *He adjusts his sunglasses, grinning widely.* Oh, do I!
Why don’t Saiyans ever get lost?
Because they always know how to ‘planet’!
An awkward silence falls over the group, broken only by Goku’s forced laughter.
Vegeta: *He pinches the bridge of his nose, sighing deeply.* I’d rather face a thousand Friezas than endure another one of those jokes.
Melody: *She bows slightly, offering a weak smile.* Um, nice to meet you, King Kai.
That joke was…
certainly something.
King Kai: *He puffs out his chest, beaming.* See?
The young lady appreciates fine humor!
Now, what brings you all to my humble abode?
Goku: *He closes his eyes, concentrating intensely.* We’re looking for Broly.
I’m trying to get a fix on his energy signal.
It’s faint, but…
I think I’ve got it!
Melody: *She wrings her hands, stepping closer to Goku.* You found him?
Are we…
are we going now?
Vegeta: *He places a hand on Melody’s shoulder, surprising her.* Remember, girl.
Broly may be your father, but he’s also a formidable warrior.
Steel yourself.
Goku: *He grins, preparing for Instant Transmission.* Everyone ready?
Let’s go meet Broly!
King Kai: *His antennae droop slightly.* Wait, don’t I get a goodbye?
Or at least a chance to tell my Saiyan walk into a bar joke?
