Just for the record, this is a pointless little fic that I came up with about Megami and Kaiobit. I think its kinda cute, but don’t lecture me that it basically has no plot. What else am I supposed to do with a busted knee??
The sun poured through the curtains. It cast a light onto the bed where two people lay. One person was still fast asleep, his mouth wide open and his body lying on his back with on arm around the person next to him. The other was awake, looking at the light fixture that hung above the massive bed. She ignored the small snores that came from her lover’s mouth, for her mind wondered to different things like it normally did.
Megami had lived on Kaioshin-kai for almost a year now. She loved her home and especially the one she shared it with—Kaiobit, the god of gods. She turned her head to see his purple face, eyes still closed, mouth still open. She giggled. She thought she was a heavy sleeper.
Though she was happy, there was that urge to do something to keep her busy. She was always trying to find something to do, but what? She even took it upon herself to wallpaper one of the sitting rooms downstairs, though that turned out to be very unsuccessful. Luckily Kaiobit’s powers were able to vanquish the little mess.
A long yawn came to Meg as she sat up and stretched. She put her hand on Kaiobit’s chest and waited for him to wake up as she rubbed her hand in a small circle. He moaned as his eyes struggled to open. She giggled again and hopped out of the bed.
Kaiobit sat up and looked up to her. “I’m hungry.”
“You’re always hungry when you wake up,” Meg said. She went to the dresser to pick out her outfit. She smiled at him as she walked by and went into the bathroom for her morning shower.

Later that day, Meg sat with her legs curled up on a white wicker chair. Her arm supported her head as she thought. Kaiobit was across from her, sitting in a similar chair with his feet propped up on a small stool. He was into a book that Meg had found for him in the library in their home.
“Kaiobit!”
He looked up quickly, as if hearing an alarm go off.
“I’ve got the perfect idea!” Meg’s legs unfolded and her feet met the ground.
“And what would that be?” Kaiobit asked amusingly. Meg’s ideas usually meant that he was going to get into trouble.
“We’ve yet to go somewhere. I think we should. A sort of honeymoon as some races call it.” She sat forward, eager for his reply.
“A honeymoon? Meg, we’re not exactly married.”
“So? Do we have to be?”
“Well, no I guess…”
“A vacation then! Come on Kaiobit, when was the last time you had a decent vacation?”
Kaiobit stared at her as he thought for a quick moment. “Never?”
“Then let’s go! Please?” Her black eyes pleaded to him. “Please Kaiobit?”
“Well…I guess we could go somewhere for a few…” He never had the chance to finish that sentence. As soon as he said ‘guess’ she had jumped on his lap, throwing her arms around his neck. The book had fallen from his hands and he was almost suffocating from all the pink hair that fell onto his face.
“We’ll have a great time! Now to find the nicest place to go.”
Kaiobit chuckled as he pushed her hair out of his face. “I know where we can go. Leave that part to me.”
“Oh Kaiobit, you’re the best! I’m going to go pack!” Meg jumped up and vanished, teleporting herself to the house.
Kaiobit sat on the edge of his chair and took the time to let everything sink in. Sometimes Meg was just like a little kid with her ideas. He loved her nonetheless, though. Now he just had to make sure that everything turned out okay so she wouldn’t be disappointed.

“A vacation!?” Rou Kaioshin shouted, questioning the two kais before him. Meg stood there biting her lip, her hands folded in front of her. Kaiobit stood there, arms hanging at his sides. “Kaioshin’s don’t go on vacation! You’re supposed to be on the job every minute of the day for your entire life!”
“But Rou…it’s just like going to check up on something. We’ll only be gone for a few days…and if I feel that something is going wrong somewhere in the universe I’m on it right away. I promise I won’t let this get in the way of my duties,” Kaiobit explained. He knew that the old Kaioshin would object as soon as he found out. Though Kaiobit was in charge, Rou Kaioshin was always on his case it seemed.
“Do what you want, but when some planet blows up because you were busy frolicking in some dirty city, don’t come crying to me.” He turned and slowly walked away, hands behind his back, shaking his head.
Meg smiled and wrapped her arm around Kaiobit’s. “Tomorrow then?”
“Sure,” Kaiobit said, kissing the top of her head.
---
The next morning Meg was up bright and early making final preparations. She sat at her vanity table fixing her hair when she heard movement behind her. She turned to see Kaiobit rolling over after waking up. “Rise and shine,” she said.
Kaiobit got up and made his way over to her. He rested his hands on her shoulders as she applied a very little bit of light pink lipstick. “You look nice…Why the outfit?” He asked as she stood up. She had on waist fitting, blue “kapri’s” as the Earth people called them, a yellow sleeveless shirt with a high collar, and plain white sneakers. Her hair had been pulled back into a ponytail set high on her head.
“You don’t like it?” She asked, almost disappointed with his comment.
“N-no! I do!” Kaiobit assured her, waving his hands.
“You said we were going to the planet Earth. I looked in on the fashions there, and thought I’d wear something like the humans do.”
“Oh! I see…” Kaiobit thought of his usual red vest he wore.
“Not to worry,” Meg said with a smile. She had read his thoughts and was already prepared. She went over to a chair that had a bag sitting on it. “I had gone to the earth to get us some stuff and picked these up for you.” She handed him the bag and he eagerly peered in.
Kaiobit raised an eyebrow as he pulled out the clothes. They were beige pants and a blue, buttoned down, short-sleeved shirt. At the bottom of the bag were black and white tennis shoes. “Wow Meg…they’re nice…”
“I thought you’d like them.” She twirled around and went to the door. “Hurry up and get changed.”
“What about breakfast?”
“Let’s eat when we get there. I can’t wait to go! Ohhhhh this is so exciting!!” She went through the door and was gone.
“Oh boy…” Kaiobit thought as he looked down at the items in his hands.

Kaiobit and Meg arrived on Earth in no time. They teleported and found themselves outside a large building with the words “Luxury’s Finest Hotel” written across the front doors. To the side was revolving doors and a man standing off to the side dressed in a red suit and funny looking hat.
“Whoa…” Meg said looking up. “This place looks high class, don’t ya think?”
Kaiobit agreed. “Want to stay here?” he asked.
“I don’t know. It’s almost like home, don’t you think? I say lets try somewhere a little less…fancy.”
Kaiobit was about to teleport when Meg stopped him. “Kaiobit, we’re on this planet now. Let’s travel the way the humans do. I saw someone doing this the other day.” She went over to the curb and looked around. Down the street was a yellow car with a “TAXI” sign on the roof. “Taxi!” She yelled waving her hand in the air.
Kaiobit couldn’t help but roll his eyes as the car pulled up to them. The driver opened the trunk so Kaiobit could put the suitcases in as Meg got in the back seat. Kaiobit followed and the driver turned around. “Where to?” he asked.
“A hotel,” Meg replied.
He looked at her a moment. “Lady, this here is a hotel.”
“Something less classy though,” she replied back.
The driver nodded and drove off into traffic. Not far down the street was a much smaller hotel that overlooked the bay. “This is better,” Meg said as they got out. Actually, it wasn’t close to the Luxury Hotel. It was much smaller, needed a good paint job, and had little air conditioning units sticking out of the windows.
“That can’t be good…” Kaiobit thought. He remembered from the World’s Martial Arts Tournament that he had entered back when Buu was to be revived that one of the rooms he had gone in had the little units in the windows; and it was extremely hot in that room.
Meg paid the driver with the money she had as Kaiobit got out his one suitcase and Meg’s three. “I think this will be a change, right?” She said as she walked to the front doors.
“Oh…it’ll be…a big change.” Kaiobit said, trying not to drop the luggage.
They walked up to the front desk where a young man was sitting, looking quite bored. “Welcome to the Bayside Inn…what can I do for you?” he asked dryly.
“We’d like a room, please,” Meg replied. “Anything you’ve got.”
Kaiobit would’ve slapped his hand over his face if he weren’t holding suitcases. “Meg, maybe we should ask for one with a view of the bay.”
“Alright. One that has a bay view.”
“Yeah, third floor, room 313. Here’s your key. We need a hundred dollar deposit first though. You pay after your stay.” Meg pulled out $100 and handed it to the man. “Alright, what name should I put you down for?”
“Megami.”
“Alright, enjoy your stay.”
Meg took the key and started to leave. “Where’s the elevator?” She asked after realizing that she didn’t know where to go.
“Stairs are outside on the porch there, through those doors.”
“Stairs?” Kaiobit asked himself.
“Thank you!” Meg led Kaiobit out the doors and to the stairs. “Lets see…we have to go to the third floor…that’s all the way up. Lets go!”
Kaiobit peered up to see the stairs. He sighed as he started up. Every ten steps was a small platform where they had to turn to go up another flight. After six flights, they were finally to the top. They stood on a porch-like hallway with the doors to rooms on the left. “This is 300 here, so we have to go down.”
Kaiobit sighed again as he kept walking. Finally, after going to the very end of the hallway, they came to their room. It actually read “13”. The first 3 was missing, its shadow left behind where there was no paint.
Meg fumbled a bit trying to get the key to go in the lock. Finally the door unlocked and opened with a terrible squeak. She looked in to see a closet on the left side in a very small entry hallway. On the right of that was a bathroom that looked as if it was never revamped. A little further away was a double bed against the right side wall, a small television set directly across, and a bureau next to the TV’s little table. Straight ahead from the front door where a pair of double glass doors that led to a small wooden deck.
“Well, Meg…this looks…great,” Kaiobit said trying to sound sincere. Already he could feel the heat in the room. There wasn’t a window for an air unit to sit in. Instead there was a small fan sitting on the table off to the side of the room.
“Its not that bad. I think we can survive. If you can survive Bibidi, Babidi, and Buu, then you can survive this place,” she said jokingly.
Kaiobit placed the luggage down and sat on the end of the bed. To his unfortunate surprise, the bed barely had any spring to it. He moaned as he leaned back, his head hitting a flat pillow. He sighed again when he realized that the bed was almost as long as he was.
“Well, lets go do something,” Meg suggested.
“Yes, lets.”

Meg and Kaiobit were lucky to find that there was an ice cream parlor not far from where their hotel was. It was situated in a place called the Bayside Plaza where there were small shops and restaurants. They sat on the patio outside eating their ice cream before it melted away.
“Hmm…” Meg said. “Can we go into those shops? I haven’t gone shopping in years!”
Kaiobit looked around. “Sure, which ones?”
“All of them.”
Kaiobit turned his head and tried to count all the different small shops there were. However, he quickly lost count.
They finished their snack and were off. Meg and Kaiobit walked along the bricked sidewalks arm in arm. “Let’s go in here,” Meg said when she saw a manikin wearing a red dress in a window. They walked in, a little bell ringing. Meg eyed the red dress. “That’s really nice,” she commented.
Kaiobit nodded as a lady came up behind her. She was dolled up with the makeup and the jewelry. “Welcome, ma’am. How may I help you?” She almost pushed right by Kaiobit as if he was just another item in the store.
“Could I try that on?” Meg asked pointing to the red dress.
“Of course dear! Let me get its copy from the back room.” Soon she returned and motioned for Meg to follow. She led her to a door that was labeled dressing room. “Try it on in here. Here darling, let your boyfriend here hold your purse while you do so.” The woman took the purse from Meg and shoved it into Kaiobit’s arms. The woman left leaving Kaiobit standing alone.
Two other ladies walked into the store; Kaiobit tried to hide the purse behind his back. Soon Meg opened the door to show Kaiobit the dress. “What do you think?”
“Very nice,” Kaiobit said with a smile.
“You think so?” Meg looked pleased to see Kaiobit approved and went back to change again. She returned to the lady at the desk. “I’ll take it.”
The lady folded it neatly and placed it into a bag as Meg got out the money. Kaiobit followed her out of the store. “Oh this place next door here looks interesting,” Meg said as she walked ahead.
Kaiobit sighed as they walked into an antique shop. He could tell that the rest of the day was going to be very long.
When the sun started to set, both felt famished. They picked out a small “pizza” restaurant on the corner of a street. They were put in the center of a crowed room at a small square table. The menus were small for the most part, Meg not knowing what half of the items were. The waitress came over and asked them for their drinks.
“I’ll have a glass of seska,” Meg told her.
The waitress looked at her blankly. “Uhh…we don’t serve that here. We have water, ice tea, coke, diet coke, ginger ale, and orange soda.”
Meg looked at Kaiobit for a second. “Water…” she replied.
Kaiobit said the same and the waitress left. “Do you know what you want?”
Meg looked over the menu. “No clue. What’s a pizza?”
“Umm,” Kaiobit tried to recall. “I think it’s like this flat thing of dough with sauce and cheese.”
“Oh,” Megami said. “Want one of those? It sounds pretty big.”
“Sure, I’ll try it.”
When the pizza came back, it was pretty much as Kaiobit described it as. Both enjoyed as they finished off all twelve slices. Kaiobit paid the bill and they left the small room and onto the street. It was dark now and the air had cooled down quite a bit.
“Alright…back to the hotel?” Kaiobit asked.
“Yeah. I think its like four streets over, though.”
Kaiobit’s shoulders slumped when he realized that she was right. “Teleport then?” He was already dead tired, and he had no more energy to walk back to the hotel with seven heavy bags of stuff Meg had bought.
“Oh come on, Kaiobit,” Meg said starting to walk off. “Where’s your sense of adventure.”
“Back in the first store,” he complained to himself as he caught up and they walked on.
Soon, the couple turned the corner and saw their little hotel across the street. “Thank the heavens,” Kaiobit commented. They both struggled up the six flight of stairs and down the hall.
Meg opened the door and they both went in, now regretting that they didn’t stay at the Luxury hotel where there was sure to be air conditioning.
“That was a fun day, don’t you agree dear?” Meg asked, sitting down on a chair to take her shoes off. Kaiobit moaned a dry yes as he dropped the bags and fell face first onto the bed.
Meg went over and lied down next to him, putting her arms around him. “I’m sorry if you’re not enjoying yourself.”
“Meg, I am enjoying myself. This is definitely an experience…but I want to go to bed now…”
“Me too.”

During the night, Kaiobit woke up to the feeling of summer on Earth. According to the small clock on the nightstand it was 3 a.m. He looked over to Meg who was fast asleep. He smiled, knowing that all of this was making her happy. He just hoped that the next two days wouldn’t be as exhausting as this.
The next morning, they went down to the small breakfast bar the hotel had to offer. They were served two eggs, a piece of bacon, and piece of sausage. Two slices of toast was off to the side and small glass of orange juice.
“It looks worse than it tastes,” Meg said. She too was now realizing how awful things were turning out. She was beginning to feel bad what she made Kaiobit go through yesterday. He really didn’t get to do anything he wanted to do.
On their way out of the hotel, Meg stopped Kaiobit. “I’m sorry,” she said looking down at the floor.
Kaiobit laughed out a “whatever for?”
“Because you tried so hard to make me happy and let me do what I wanted to do yesterday. I know you were very tired, and I feel bad. This isn’t much of a vacation for you, huh?”
Kaiobit smiled and picked up her hands in his. “Megami, I just love spending the time with you. I don’t mind what we do together.”
“Really?”
“Really. I admit that yesterday was a little tiring, but I’m okay today.” He smiled which gave her confidence.
---
Kaiobit and Megami spent the day relaxing, like a vacation from life should be spent doing. They rented a rowboat and went out onto a section of the bay. Meg lay in Kaiobit’s arms, both feeling happiness with the presence of the other.
The rest of the time was spent walking around the shores barefoot, taking a swim in the water, and relaxing under a shady tree.
Kaiobit treated Meg to a fancy restaurant that overlooked the moonlit water. She wore the red dress she purchased the day before, which made her look fabulous. The meal was excellent and the atmosphere was romantic.
They rode down a few streets towards the hotel in a horse drawn carriage, so they wouldn’t have to make the entire trip back on foot. Before they went into the room, Meg turned to Kaiobit and smiled. “I had a lovely time, Kaiobit.”
“I’m glad, because so did I.” They shared a long deep kiss under the moonlight.
---
The last day had gone by quickly. Meg and Kaiobit had returned to their home on Kaioshin-kai later in the day. In all, they returned home with the clothes Meg had bought, a “gangster hat” for Kaiobit that Meg thought was absolutely adorable on him, and a bobble-head hoola dancer doll for Rou Kaioshin (except the doll’s waist moved instead of the head).
Rou Kaioshin was extremely pleased with his souvenir, seeing that he loved it when he put it down on the table. Kaiobit put his hat on as he carried the luggage upstairs to their bedroom. Meg was already there putting some of the stuff away.
“Well, that wasn’t so bad,” Kaiobit said.
“No. I really had a great time,” Meg said with a smile. She wrapped her arms around his waist and leaned her head on his shoulder. “I’m glad to be home though.”
“Me too, actually. But as long as you’re with me.” Kaiobit said and kissed her.
