10A/N: My interpretation of the common 'Fused as Vegito' theme. I decided to make some sweet moments like inside Buu, combined with more. This is the short introduction. READ ON!
Vegeta opened his eyes into a pitch-black darkness, recovering from something—most probably, a blackout due to energy transfer—that happened after he collided face-first with that huge hollow-head. Even with his superior senses, he couldn't see, hear, smell or feel a single thing. Was there anything, anyway? There was only an uncanny emptiness surrounding him. Vegeta remembered that the baka had somehow convinced him to wear that stupid earring. Now most probably he was stuck in the same place as him—inside a common body.
His head ached a little—no, it reeled—it did something that teased his mental balance. He raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his brow—it was getting hot—but he didn't find a brow. The wind blew against his skin, or at least that was what he felt. But he somehow couldn't feel it enter the pores and sooth him. They soothed him, yes, but they seemed to blow over something distant, and the cool radiated from there to him. It was similar to the short limbo between death and Yemma's station.
Yes! Of course it was like that! He was in a common body, but he couldn't see Kakarott, that meant his individual existence was only as a soul in the body that had the compressed and combined mass and energy of his and Kakarott's bodies. But then, how did their decisions coincide? How did the controls of the common body function? Vegeta's logical mind immediately searched for answers.
Suddenly, he seemed to 'see' a small light, or rather, a hazy aura of the sort that often happens when one closes their eyes before a strong light. The aura seemed to be distributed lightly, but uniformly, throughout the empty chamber, but there still was nothing other than endless emptiness visible. It was a strange sensation. But yes, he could see himself as a blurry haze… soul-like.
He tried to float in whatever direction he could, hoping he wouldn't find anything unpleasant; and he didn't include the baka in that list this time.
Goku deduced that he must have been knocked out by the huge collision he had with Vegeta. Good thing he agreed to wear that earring. Hope he won't be too displeased with it being permanent. He didn't sound happy when I told him that. I wouldn't like to stay with him in a common body while he was mad at me…
His eyes perceived no light initially, but then a small aura showed him a queer nothingness around him. He saw his own form, hazy, ghostly. He realized that they surely were hovering as souls in the body they shared. How do I find him? Do I need to find him to be able to control the body? How do we control the body together? It won't work like one person if I have to speak to him for that…
His head was feeling uncomfortable since his recovery. He was very worried about what was to happen. He didn't know how the body was to be controlled; he didn't know where Vegeta was.
The light was strange, something that he felt was beyond his perceptive capacity. Maybe Vegeta would know…
Goku tried to 'stand up' and be cheerful, and tried to float forwards, hoping he didn't move in circles. His head still felt queer, so did the rest of his spectre-like 'body'. He felt a cooling wind, but it somehow didn't 'touch' him… funny, he thought. And he had no real senses to help him… Vegeta would surely know better what was happening…
Next chapter: Communication.
A/N: Here ends the introductory chapter. The following ones will also be short, to increase update frequency. I wrote the first three chapters as a whole, meaning a one-shot, but then decided to split it when I saw how much it stretched.
