Who thought the latest Dragon Ball Super Chapter 25 was wicked? If I had the money, I'd ask the animators to animate that scene of Goku's Hakai against fused Zamasu. Though I was SLIGHTLY disappointed it ended before it fully erased that snug immortal with a zero mortal complex...

...what? Am I NOT allowed to hate that evil freak of nature? He killed Future Bulma and did a lot of bad stuff! He's practically the reason I started this crazy story (kind of). Actually, it was because of the fact that the Potara earrings were nerfed, I felt oddly inspired enough to try my hand at toying with this crazy idea, and wanted to see if it would be worth the hype.

In truth, when I had initially started this story, I wasn't sure I was going to continue the idea considering I was in a deep funk at the time when I started (namely because I was failing a class at the time and I felt like I was not as creative as I used to be—then again, I am glad I did fail it despite how wrong that sounds).

Don't worry, this story is NOT going in the direction of Goku and Vegeta wanting to stay fused together. If I did that, I'd copy off the rest of the plot of the latest manga chapter. For those who didn't read it, sorrynotsorry.

Also, the end of the chapter was like The Walking Dead—creepy immortal version. *Cringes.*

I am not a zombie fan, and the last thing I want is for Zamasu to go that route. I'd hide under my bed for weeks to cry if that happened.

Worse, I have ideas of animating this and involving a Michael Jackson song around this sudden turn of events. Should I pursue it or leave it to rot?

I'll leave it to the readers to decide yea or nay at this project. Cast your vote here!

Vegito barely had any time to react when the earring broke. An explosion of dust obscured the fusion while the other deity-like beings waited for the end result. When the smoke cleared, Beerus' eyes narrowed.

Standing there alone with an earring on his right ear, Vegeta scowled at the god of destruction. Apparently, Goku was not there.

"Where's Goku?" Whis questioned. This caused the prince's eyes to widen as he glanced around. Was the fool playing a trick on him?

"Kakarrot, stop playing around and..." Vegeta paled when he suddenly fell to the ground and was gasping for air. His breathing labored as the angel felt the power within the prince starting to waver.

"Vegeta, are you alright?" Shin knelt down by the prince's side. Apparently, Vegeta couldn't respond, his breathing was irregular as he grew pale.

'This isn't good, apparently, Goku must have lost his physical form and since Vegito didn't defuse correctly, Vegeta's suffering and could die from the unnatural break,' Whis mentally summarized 'I just hope I don't have to rely on this again anytime soon...'

The angel's staff clanked against the ground twice, the tapping triggered the power that the caretaker only used two other times as of late—temporal do-over. Everything around him flowed in reverse like a tape rewinding. Within a few seconds, Vegito stood once more with Beerus and Shin back in their previous positions.

"Hmm... I wonder what would happen if one of those earrings were to break?"

"Don't do it Beerus!" Shin yelled angrily at the deity. "You could destroy them!"

"Or it could..." Whis shifted immediately behind the god of destruction and bopped him in the back of the head. "Hey! What was that for?"

"My apologies my lord, but have you forgotten about the feast that Bulma had planned back at Capsule Corp?" Whis questioned, hoping that the momentary distraction would permit Beerus to forget the idea of breaking the Potara earring.

"Ah, that's right, it totally slipped my mind with this guy being a total distraction," Beerus shrugged with irritation. He disregarded the fusion almost instantly—his attention more focused on the idea of the latest cuisine he had yet to try out. "Fine, let's go back to Earth."

'He... he almost...' Vegito thought to himself, touching his left ear rather absentmindedly. 'He almost killed us... had he succeeded...'

Almost though Whis heard the fusion's thought, he glanced at Vegito with a knowing smile. "Do you mind doing the honors and returning us to Earth?"

"Why did you save me?" Vegito asked Whis the minute Beerus stalked off to find something to eat.

"It would be a shame to lose two potential candidates for my lord's position if you died," Whis cryptically answered. "I am more surprised you remember what happened."

"It might be more of Kakarrot's mind recalling most of it than Vegeta's..." Vegito pondered in confusion. "Usually, the clown tends to forget the more important things..."

"Hmm... it might be due to how easily he adapts in battle without losing spirit," Whis pressed the ball resting on top of his cane against his chin in a thoughtful gesture. "In any event, you should not abuse the earrings much longer or the next time, you might end up dying for good."

"I..."

"GOKU! I KNOW YOU'RE HERE!" Chi-chi's shrill voice yelled from across the compound. A shiver of fear ran through the fusion. Of all women, why did it have to be her?

"Crap!" Vegito quickly looked around before making a quick beeline to the gravity room. The door slammed shut behind him as a hissing sound filled the air. The metallic door locked from within as the fusion prayed that Kakarrot's harpy wife remained clueless of his whereabouts until they were no longer one person.

Covering the camera with a spare towel, Vegito knew that Bulma would hate him doing it, but at least Chi-chi would not see him in here if she went to the security room to check the camera's footage. The last thing he wanted was for that woman to realize what he was doing.

Rather, what her husband had been doing all of this time. Crossing the other side of the gravity room, Vegito leaned his back into the wall and shut his eyes, feeling the trepidation rolling through him courtesy of Kakarrot. Apparently, he had a tough decision on his hands.

A decision, Vegito decided, he would leave to his fusees to work out until their fusion ends.

Within the dark void, two figures were back-to-back with each other, one shivering in fear while the other remaining stern and feeling ridiculous hiding from a pitiful human. Under normal circumstances, they would not be this close—the only reason they were at the moment was due to the Potara that brought them together.

That and it did not help that a magnetic force connected them together temporarily within the emptiness that surrounded them.

"Honestly Kakarrot, can't you handle your own wife?" Vegeta asked the taller Saiya-jin who jumped slightly when he was addressed.

"She sounds so angry," Kakarrot answered with his voice coming out a bit higher pitch than necessary.

"That doesn't mean you should hide from her," Vegeta shook his head in disgust.

"I'm afraid of how she'd react if she knew we were like this," Kakarrot admitted more to himself, yet it seemed more like an epiphany was being reached at the same moment.

"You never told her about us joining bodies in the past have you?" The younger Saiya-jin nodded. "Why?"

"She made a huge fuss when our sons did it, so I kept quiet about it. Especially when she said something about how irresponsible two people combined tend to act..."

"We did act rather irresponsible the minute you decided to start this stupid experiment."

"Not like I can help it." Kakarrot glanced over his right shoulder at Vegeta, who had been looking over his left one in return. The prince quickly looked away, feeling a bit more self-conscious.

"Do you really like it when we're like this?" Vegeta asked. He felt stupid for asking the question, considering that they were one person right now.

"Not always, it feels like we're cheating trying to get stronger, but resorting to some shortcut." Kakarrot admitted. "What about you?"

"I rather earn the strength with my own effort than continue fusing together like this. Yet at the same time, I will admit that it is tempting to do it more often."

"I guess you're right. At the same time though, I guess I just wanted to get to know you better, you know?"

"There's not much to really tell you about myself," Vegeta stated calmly.

"Of course there is," Kakarrot grinned. "I mean you always seem so quiet and mysterious..."

"And you're loud and annoying," Vegeta felt a tinge of anger build up inside of him. "A normal Saiya-jin like you wouldn't be tolerated..."

"I guess it's good I'm not normal then." The goofball was oblivious of what he just said, and Vegeta was more than irritated.

"The minute the fusion breaks, I'm punching you in the face," Vegeta commented.

"Not if I use Instant Transmission to make my great escape," Kakarrot teased.

"And where would you go? I'm sure your wife would appreciate your company," Vegeta reminded the naïve warrior. That caused a small cry to escape him as he realized that he had two choices: face the prince and receive punishment or deal with the wrath of an angry housewife.

"Oh man," Kakarrot groaned at the lack of ideas he had. He knew whichever one he had to take, the consequences of his actions would truly speak for themselves.
