and from the kitchen, the strong smell of rice boiling, with a couple of seasonings spicing up the scent, traveled to his nostrils. 從廚房傳來了米飯煮沸的濃鬱氣味，幾種調味品使香氣更加誘人，飄入他的鼻腔。
he sighed with delight. 他滿心歡喜地歎了口氣。
like arepa once said – you had to put some sizzle on it. 就像阿瑞帕曾經說的 - 你得加點火力。
he squeezed his facial muscles and his eyes, trying to stop himself. 但他用力皺起眉頭，閉緊雙眼，試圖控製自己。
but his tears broke through the dam. 然而，他的眼淚衝破了阻礙。
this was truly home, like he had never left. 這才是真正的家，就像他從未離開過一樣。
the boy covered his eyes, weary of embarrassing himself as his feelings rolled down his cheeks. 男孩捂住雙眼，擔心自己因為情感泛濫而出醜。
goku returned from the kitchen. 悟空從廚房迴來了。
\\\"just waitin\\u0027 on you, go-\\\" \\\"隻等你了，悟-\\\"
the proud father stopped to smile graciously at his son. 這位自豪的父親停下來，親切地對兒子微笑。
as gohan continued sobbing, goku walked over and grabbed his shoulder with his firm hand. 當悟飯繼續抽泣時，悟空走過去，用有力的手抓住他的肩膀。
gohan pulled his hands away from his face to look up at him, shing back to one of the many days he spent in the living room as a child. 悟飯把手從臉上拿開，抬頭看著他，迴想起他小時候在客廳度過的一天。
\\\"wele home,\\\" goku said. \\\"歡迎迴家，\\\"悟空說道。
about an hourter, for the first time ever, the entire family sat down at a table covered in tes of expertly prepared meat and vegetables. 大約一個小時後，整個家庭第一次坐在鋪滿精心準備的肉和蔬菜的餐桌旁。
on one side sat the parents, goku and chi-chi. 一側坐著父母，悟空和琪琪。
and on the other, sat gohan and his little brother, goten. 另一側坐著悟飯和他的小弟弟，悟天。
the pint-sized clone of goku had been sitting in a high chair and talking gohan\\u0027s ear off. 這個縮小版的悟空一直坐在高椅上，不停地和悟飯聊個不停。
\\\"you were really in space?!\\\"
\\\"你真的在太空裏嗎？！\\\"
\\\"were there stars?!\\\"
\\\"那裏有星星嗎？！\\\"
\\\"were there aliens?!\\\"
\\\"那裏有外星人嗎？！\\\"
\\\"can you talk alien?\\\"
\\\"你會說外星語嗎？\\\"
\\\"do you have a ufo?!\\\"
\\\"你有飛碟嗎？！\\\"
things of that nature.
類似這樣的事情。
gohan had given up trying to answer, wondering if he had been as hyperactive and inquisitive at that age.
悟飯已經放棄了迴答，想著自己在那個年紀是否也如此活潑好奇。
the more he thered, the stronger gohan\\u0027s motivation grew. he had to fight so this kid could stay exactly that – a kid. he wouldn\\u0027t have to live in a universe overshadowed by frieza, where his saiyan blood would eventually force him to fight a generational war.
他越是嘮叨，悟飯的動力就越強烈。他必須戰鬥，讓這個孩子能夠保持孩子的狀態。他不需要生活在被弗利薩籠罩的宇宙中，那裏他的賽亞人血統最終會迫使他參與一場代際戰爭。
ughing, goku reached out to grab a piece of fish, but chi-chi pped his hand. \\\"hold it, goku. we ain\\u0027t said grace yet!\\\"
悟空笑著伸手抓起一塊魚肉，但是琪琪打了他的手。“等一下，悟空。我們還沒有說感恩的話呢！”
goku whined, his face eager to dig into all of the food in front of him. \\\"aw, c\\u0027mon, we literally know god! he doesn\\u0027t care if we thank him for the food!\\\"
悟空抱怨道，他的臉上充滿了對麵前所有食物的渴望。“啊，拜托，我們實際上認識上帝！他不會介意我們感謝他為食物！”
chi-chi rolled her eyes. \\\"well, what about the other deities, then?\\\"
琪琪翻了個白眼。“那其他神祗呢？”
\\\"king kai hates it when i eat everything up.\\\"
“界王大人討厭我把東西全吃光。”
utterly exasperated, chi-chi looked straight ahead at her eldest son. \\\"y\\u0027see this, gohan? day after day o\\u0027 this. it\\u0027s like i\\u0027m raisin\\u0027 two kids.\\\"
琪琪徹底被搞瘋，直勾勾地看著她的大兒子。“悟飯，你看到了嗎？每天都是這樣，就像是我在撫養兩個孩子。”
gohanughed, though he knew it was a fool\\u0027s battle to get between a saiyan and their food. he was eager to eat, himself. back on mamba, he had said he didn\\u0027t deserve a home-cooked meal. even now, he still wasn\\u0027t sure – but he wasn\\u0027t going to worry about that. he was just going to enjoy it.
悟飯笑了起來，盡管他知道在賽亞人和他們的食物之間爭奪是一場傻瓜的戰鬥。他自己也迫不及待地想吃。在曼巴星球上，他曾經說過自己不配有一頓家常飯。即使現在，他仍然不確定——但他不會為此擔心。他隻是要好好享受。
\\\"now, boys…\\\" chi-chi directed with a stern mand that stiffened even goku\\u0027s posture. he gave goten a bargaining nod, and then sped his hands together. goten did the same. \\\"i humbly ept this meal,\\\" they both said.
“現在，孩子們……”琪琪以嚴厲的命令指導，連悟空的姿態都變得僵硬起來。他對著悟天使了個商量的點頭，然後合起雙手。悟天也這樣做。“我謙卑地接受這頓飯，”他們倆都說道。
and despite only knowing him as he was for a few days now, chi-chi looked at gohan expectantly, and with warning.
盡管隻是在過去的幾天裏認識他，琪琪期待地看著悟飯，帶著警告的眼神。
relieved or not, she damn sure expected him to respect the household, and gohan would oblige or else hell awaited him.
無論是否如釋重負，她可確實希望他尊重家庭，否則地獄就等著他。
he sped his hands together, marveling at all of the food that had been delicately prepared for his liking, from the mother he had been separated from to fight a destined battle. \\\"i humbly ept this meal.\\\"
他雙手合十，驚歎於為他精心準備的所有食物，這些食物來自他為了命運之戰而與母親分離的人。“我謙卑地接受這頓飯。”
about thirty minutester, gohan and goku were both limping out of the house, overstuffed with food.
大約三十分鍾後，悟飯和悟空都吃得飽飽的，一瘸一拐地走出了屋子。
never in his life had gohan ever overindulged in such a way, but like most things with goku, it became a petition.
悟飯在他的一生中從未過度沉溺於這種程度，但和悟空一樣，這也變成了一場競爭。
if his father could knock down a te, then so could he. though sure he was going to regret this in the bathroomter, he enjoyed it nheless.
如果他的父親能吃掉一盤，那麽他也能。盡管他肯定以後會後悔這一點，但他仍然很享受。
\\\"nothin\\u0027 like home cookin\\u0027, huh?\\\" goku groggily asked.
“沒有什麽比家常菜更好的了，對吧？”悟空朦朧地問道。
\\\"yeah,\\\" gohan replied, clutching his stomach. \\\"i\\u0027ll be headin\\u0027 to the lookout soon, so good luck talkin\\u0027 vegeta down. it was great to see you back here.\\\"
“是的，”悟飯迴答道，緊緊抓著自己的肚子。“我馬上就要去神界了，所以祝你好運說服貝吉塔。很高興看到你迴到這裏。”
gohan nodded, the feeling being more than mutual.
悟飯點了點頭，這種感覺是相互的。after craning his neck, gohan prepared to fly away, until he felt a presence approaching.
他伸長脖子準備飛走，直到他感到有人靠近。
the leaves shaking and footsteps rumbled in his ear, and the steps didn\\u0027t belong to an animal. it sounds more like a pair of boots.
樹葉的顫動和腳步聲在他耳邊響起，而腳步聲並不屬於動物。更像是一雙靴子。
after a nce to his left, his jaw dropped. \\\pis!\\\"
他向左瞥了一眼，他的下巴都要掉下來了。“拉皮斯！”
he was back, standing nearby amongst the trees and petting a deer\\u0027s head. he turned away to look at gohan, an unreadable expression in his nk eyes.
他迴來了，站在附近的樹林中，撫摸著一隻鹿的頭。他轉過頭看著悟飯，眼睛中有著難以捉摸的表情。
goku stepped back while gohan swallowed heavily, unable to pry his vision away from the hole in the middle ofpis\\u0027 shirt.
悟空後退了一步，而悟飯則沉重地咽了口口水，無法從拉皮斯襯衫中間的洞眼移開視線。
it was a reminder of why he had gone through all the trouble he had to get the dragon balls. a gust of wind set in, jostling their hair back and forth while gohan wondered what was about to happen.
這讓他想起了他為何要費盡周折去找龍珠的原因。一陣風吹來，搖晃著他們的頭發，悟飯想知道接下來會發生什麽。
his sister had explosively reacted to gohan over the murder; he didn\\u0027t expect any different from the actual victim, regardless of their understanding.
他的妹妹對於謀殺案發生後對悟飯的反應激烈；他不管對方是否理解，都不指望受害者有什麽不同的反應。
whatever was in store, though, gohan would face it head on.pis took a few steps forward, closing the gap until only a few feet stood between the two. every muscle in gohan\\u0027s body tightened with unyielding tension.
無論未來會帶來什麽，悟飯都將迎頭麵對。拉皮斯向前邁了幾步，拉近了兩人之間的距離，隻剩下幾英尺的空間。悟飯全身的肌肉緊繃，緊張無比。
pis\\u0027 gaze wouldn\\u0027t let up as gohan searched for the right words to say. a cliché apology wouldn\\u0027t cut it.pis opened his mouth first, however.
拉皮斯的目光沒有停歇，悟飯尋找著恰當的話語。陳詞濫調的道歉並不能解決問題。然而，拉皮斯先開了口。\\\"you ruined my favorite shirt.\\\"
“你毀了我最喜歡的襯衫。”
having been granted forgiveness he wasn\\u0027t even sure he deserved, gohan flew to west city with a weight lifted off his shoulders.
雖然他甚至不確定是否配得上原諒，但得到寬恕後，悟飯輕鬆地飛往西都。
he was surezuli was ted to seepis turn back up at roshi\\u0027s ind. now, all he need worry about was whether or not vegeta would be receptive to a year with goku in the hyperbolic time chamber.
他確信拉祖利對於看到拉皮斯再次出現在羅斯希的島上感到欣喜。現在，他唯一需要擔心的就是維吉塔是否會接受與悟空一起在超時空房間度過一年。
like everyone usually did, gohan entered the pound through bulma\\u0027s balcony, surprised that the door had been destroyed.
和其他人一樣，悟飯通常從布爾瑪的陽台進入建築物，驚訝地發現門已經被破壞了。
he could sense vegeta\\u0027s ki downstairs, surprised to feel it under duress like in the middle of a training session even though he wasn\\u0027t in the spaceship.
他可以感覺到樓下維吉塔的氣，驚訝地感受到它承受著壓力，就像在訓練中一樣，盡管他並不在飛船上。
after the long walk downstairs, gohan reached the door to bulma\\u0027sboratory, where he sensed her in there, too.
下了漫長的樓梯，悟飯來到布爾瑪實驗室的門口，他也能感覺到她在裏麵。
now it made sense why vegeta\\u0027s ki was strained – probably yelling at her about the gravity settings.
現在維吉塔的氣為何如此緊張有了解釋——可能是因為他在對她大聲抱怨重力設置。
gohan knocked on the door a couple of times, but got no response. so he walked to the keypad by the door, having figured out how to hack it after a few break-ins.
悟飯敲了幾下門，但沒有迴應。於是他走到門旁邊的鍵盤上，他在幾次闖入後搞清楚了如何入侵。
as he input a few things, he overheard a rumbling from the other side of the door, and even voices.
當他輸入了一些內容時，他聽到了門的另一邊傳來的隆隆聲，甚至還有聲音。
\\\"call me a vulgar fucking subus again!\\\"
“再次稱唿我為下流的淫婦！”
\\\"vulgar…subus…demon wench!\\\"
“下流的……淫婦……惡魔婊子！”
\\\"yeah, that\\u0027s right, you fucking bad man!\\\" （是的，沒錯，你這個該死的壞蛋！）
the half-saiyan smirked. （半個賽亞人得意地笑了笑。） of course those two were at each other\\u0027s throats. （當然，那兩個人總是爭吵個不停。） he could have been away for a legitimate year, and that wouldn\\u0027t have changed. （哪怕他離開了一整年，情況也不會有所改變。） following a push of a button, the door slid open. （按下一個按鈕，門滑開了。）
what gohan saw in theb made him wish he had just given up after knocking. （戈漢在實驗室裏看到的讓他希望自己在敲門後就放棄了。）
bulma and vegeta were on a desk. （布爾瑪和貝吉塔在一張桌子上。） bulma had one hand pressed against vegeta\\u0027s neck while the other had pped him in the face just as the door slid open. （布爾瑪一隻手按在貝吉塔的脖子上，另一隻手在門滑開時抽了他一巴掌。） vegeta had been under her, lying with his back on the desk. （貝吉塔則躺在桌子上，背靠著桌麵。） vegeta had one hand lightly grasped around her neck. （貝吉塔的一隻手輕輕抓住她的脖子。） neither looked angry. （兩人看起來都不生氣。） in fact, they had both been staring at each other with unhinged, psychotic smiles. （事實上，他們兩人一直用著瘋狂的笑容盯著對方。）
from the waist up, it looked like they were fighting. （從腰部以上看，他們看起來像是在爭吵。） from the waist down, it was disgustingly clear that they were not fighting, but rather…another verb that started with the letter f. （從腰部以下看，令人厭惡地清楚他們並不是在爭吵，而是……另一個以字母f開頭的動詞。）
all of the pleasure drained from their faces when they realized gohan was looking right at them. （當他們意識到戈漢正在盯著他們看時，他們臉上的所有愉悅都消失了。） the teenager could not pry his eyes away from them even though he wanted to even more than killing frieza. （即使他比殺死弗利薩還想把目光從他們身上移開，但這位十幾歲的少年還是無法撇開他們的眼睛。）
every chunk of food he had engorged himself with minutes earlier rose back up to his throat. （他剛才狼吞虎咽的每一口食物都湧上喉嚨。）
he could ment on the scene with only one expression. （麵對這一幕，他隻能用一個表情來評論。）
\\\"e!\\\" （\\\"呸！\\\")
vegeta shoved bulma off of his body and scrambled to pull his tights up. （貝吉塔將布爾瑪從自己身上推開，然後急忙拉起自己的緊身褲。） with his sheer strength, however, he wound up tossing her off the desk entirely and her body smacked the floor with a loud thud. （然而，憑借他的強大力量，他卻將她整個人從桌子上扔了下去，她的身體發出巨大的撞擊聲。） gohan desperately looked away while bulma stood up, ring at vegeta and not bothering to put her pants back on. （戈漢拚命地別過頭，而布爾瑪則站了起來，怒視著貝吉塔，也懶得穿迴褲子。） his disgust overriding his teenage urges, gohan pped his hand over his eyes. （他厭惡的感覺壓倒了他作為十幾歲少年的衝動，戈漢一把手捂住了自己的眼睛。）
\\\"vegeta, you dick! do i look like a blow-up doll to you?!\\\" bulma yelled, sounding like she\\u0027d just ran a fewps. （\\\"貝吉塔，你這個混蛋！我看起來像充氣娃娃嗎？！\\\"布爾瑪大聲喊道，聽起來像是剛剛跑了幾圈。）
\\\"bloomers!\\\" vegeta yelled. （\\\"襯褲！\\\"貝吉塔大喊一聲。）
\\\"that is not my name!\\\" （\\\"那不是我的名字！\\\")
\\\"your bloomers!\\\" （\\\"你的襯褲！\\\")
\\\"motherfu-!\\\" （\\\"該死的-！\\\")
\\\"i\\u0027m saying put your damn bloomers on, idiot!\\\" （\\\"我是說給我穿上該死的襯褲，白癡！\\\")
\\\"...oh.\\\" （\\\"...哦。\\\")
after waiting a few moments until he was sure it was safe, gohan lowered his hand, but still couldn\\u0027t bring himself to turn towards them without unseeing…that. （在等待了幾分鍾，確保安全之後，戈漢放下了手，但他仍然無法轉身麵對他們，無法忘記...那個場景。）
vegeta broke the uneasy silence with a clearing of his throat, and then bulma rushed to gohan and put her hand on his shoulder. （貝吉塔清了清嗓子打破了尷尬的沉默，然後布爾瑪衝到戈漢身邊，把手放在他的肩膀上。）
gohan flung his arm away like her hand was covered in toxic waste, and bulma flinched once she realized her error. （戈漢猛地甩開了手臂，好像她的手被有毒廢物覆蓋著一樣，布爾瑪意識到自己的錯誤後畏縮了一下。）
she nervously twiddled her thumbs. \\\"okay, so i know you probably never got the talk, but what you saw was two consenting adults-\\\" （她緊張地擰動著拇指。“好吧，我知道你可能從來沒有接受過這方麵的教育，但你看到的是兩個自願的成年人-”）
\\\"shut the fuck up!\\\" both gohan and vegeta screamed. （\\\"閉嘴！\\\"戈漢和貝吉塔同時喊道。）
\\\"\\u0027kay!\\\" （\\\"好的！\\\")
bulma slid back with a nervousugh and rushed out of the room. （布爾瑪緊張地笑著後退，匆匆離開了房間。）
now all alone, gohan and vegeta continued avoiding eye contact. （現在他們兩個人獨自一人，戈漢和貝吉塔繼續避免眼神交流。）
from the asional nce, gohan could see red marks all around vegeta\\u0027s face; what the hell were they doing? actually, he didn\\u0027t want to know. （從偶爾的瞥視中，戈漢可以看到貝吉塔臉上到處都是紅印；他們到底在幹什麽？實際上，他不想知道。）
but, figuring he would have to say something eventually, gohan turned his red face towards him. （但是，他知道自己最終必須說點什麽，戈漢把臉轉向貝吉塔。）
\\\"what the fuck, dude?\\\" （\\\"搞什麽鬼，夥計？\\\")
with a roll of the eyes, vegeta defensively folded his arms. （vegeta翻了個白眼，防守地叉起雙臂。）
\\\"don\\u0027t act like you haven\\u0027t seen me do worse.\\\" （“別假裝你沒看見我做過更糟的事情。”）
okay sure, that might have been true. but he never saw him do that. （好吧，可能是真的。 但他從未見過他這麽做過。）
\\\"and haven\\u0027t you heard of knocking?\\\" （“你難道沒聽說過敲門嗎？”）
\\\"i did,\\\" gohan replied, narrowing his eyes. \\\"but apparently you two were too…preupied.\\\" （“我敲過了，”戈漢迴答著，眼睛眯了起來。“但顯然你們兩個太……專注了。”）
\\\"hn. like you don\\u0027t fantasize about doing the same thing with that loudmouth girl.\\\" （“哼。 就好像你沒想過和那個喋喋不休的女孩做同樣的事情一樣。”）
gohan\\u0027s face red as red as the human body allowed. vegeta certainly had him there. regardless, he shook his head, trying to erase away the memory. after seeing that, he\\u0027d pletely forgotten why the hell he had even been looking for vegeta in the first ce. （戈漢的臉變得和人類身體允許的一樣紅了起來。 貝吉塔當然對他說中了。盡管如此，他搖了搖頭，試圖抹去那個記憶。在看到那一幕之後，他完全忘記了他到底為什麽要找貝吉塔。）
he was about to turn around, until he noticed vegeta\\u0027s scrutinizing gaze. （他正要轉身，直到他注意到貝吉塔審視的目光。）
\\\"…since when are we the same height?\\\" the prince asked. （“…我們從什麽時候開始是一樣的身高了？”王子問道。）
gohan opened his mouth to reply and gasped once he realized that answered his own problem, too. \\\"oh, right. about that…up in the sky, where this\\u0027s god lives in his sanctuary, there\\u0027s this room called the hyperbolic time chamber. time and space operate differently in there – a day out here is a whole year in there. \\\" （戈漢張開嘴要迴答，一旦他意識到這也解決了他自己的問題，他倒抽了一口氣。“哦，對了。關於那個……在天空中，這個星球的神住在他的聖地裏，有一個叫做超時空房間的地方。在那裏時間和空間運作得不同——外麵的一天在裏麵就是一整年。”）
\\\"seriously?\\\" vegeta asked, his eyes widening with intrigue. （“真的嗎？”貝吉塔問道，他的眼睛因好奇而睜大了。）
\\\"i spent the whole year…day…\\\" gohan sighed, still finding the whole deal disorienting. \\\"…whatever. i trained in there with polo. \\\" （“我度過了整整一年……一天……”戈漢歎了口氣，仍然覺得整個事情令人迷惑。“……反正。我在那裏和畢克洛一起訓練。”）
vegeta raised his eyebrow. \\\"who?\\\" （貝吉塔挑了挑眉。“誰？”）
\\\"the namekian.\\\" （“那個那美克星人。”）
reflexively, vegeta sucked his teeth at polo\\u0027s mention. （貝吉塔一聽到提到畢克洛，本能地咂了咂牙。）
\\\"what the hell doesn\\u0027t this have? but if it worked for you then it will obviously work for me. with a setup like that, i wouldn\\u0027t need to worry about when frieza arrives. \\\" （“這個星球到底缺什麽？但如果對你有效，顯然對我也有效。有了那樣的安排，我就不必擔心弗利薩什麽時候來了。”）
\\\"i think you should train in there with my father. you two will both get stronger. \\\" （“我認為你應該和我父親一起在那裏訓練。你們兩個都會變得更強。”）
as gohan expected, disgust immediately took hold of vegeta\\u0027s face. and considering the highs he was apparently running on before gohan arrived, the idea was obviously the furthest thing from his desires. （正如戈漢所料，貝吉塔的臉上立刻露出厭惡之色。考慮到戈漢到來之前他顯然是如此高漲的狀態，這個想法顯然是他最不希望的事情。）
\\\"him?\\\" he sneered. \\\"you expect me to spend a year in some room with that sellout court jester? apparently, your year in there did a number on your mon sense. \\\" （“他？”他嘲笑道。“你指望我和那個賣身的玩笑雜耍者一起在一個房間裏度過一年？顯然，你在那裏的一年讓你的常識受到了一些影響。”）
gohan rolled his eyes. the saiyan prince truly was as stubborn as they came. \\\"he\\u0027s already sold on it, and he\\u0027s waiting up there. \\\" （戈漢翻了個白眼。這位賽亞人王子確實如同他們的性格一樣固執。“他已經同意了，並且他在上麵等著。”）
with clenched teeth, vegeta leaned against the desk, drumming his fingers along the edge. gohan knew that look on vegeta\\u0027s face – he was giving it legitimate thought, but at the same time devising reasons not to do it. the only appeal that would work would be to his pride. （貝吉塔咬緊牙關，靠在桌子上，用手指敲擊著邊緣。戈漢知道貝吉塔臉上的表情——他正在認真考慮，同時想出不去做的理由。唯一能起作用的誘因就是他的自尊心。）
gohan locked his eyes onto vegeta\\u0027s, trying to project his intensity onto him. \\\"i know you want another crack at him. you\\u0027ll have 365 whole days to get it. \\\" （戈漢盯著貝吉塔的眼睛，試圖將他的強烈願望傳遞給他。“我知道你想再次與他一決高下。你將有整整365天來實現它。”）
vegeta\\u0027s eye twitched. he scratched the edge of the desk hard enough that its shavings fell to the floor, hissing in anger. if gohan knew anything about him, the memory of his spine being snapped was embedded in his brain. with how much ss hierarchy meant to the prince of all saiyans, he probably wanted to defeat goku nearly as badly as he did frieza. （貝吉塔的眼睛抽搐了一下。他用力刮了刮桌子的邊緣，足夠強烈，使桌子的碎屑掉到地上，咬牙切齒地發出聲音。如果戈漢了解他的一些情況，他的脊椎被折斷的記憶已經深深烙印在他的腦海中。對於所有賽亞人的王子來說，階級等級意味著很多，他可能和對待弗利薩一樣渴望擊敗悟空。）
after a growl, vegeta replied, \\\"i could train with you in there, e back out and wipe the floor with him all the same. \\\" （貝吉塔咆哮著迴答道：“我可以和你一起在那裏訓練，然後出來時照樣把他踩在腳下。”）
gohan snickered. \\\"by then, you\\u0027d be so much stronger than him it\\u0027d be no better than pushing around raditz. \\\" （戈漢竊笑道：“到那時，你將比他強大得多，和推著拉迪茨沒什麽兩樣。”）
\\\"because that\\u0027s exactly what he is. \\\" vegeta hopped off the disheveled desk. \\\"he\\u0027s from the same trash stock, and is to be disposed of as such. \\\" （“因為他就是那樣的。”貝吉塔從淩亂的桌子上跳了下來。“他來自同樣的廢物血統，應該被清除。”）
as vegeta headed for the door, gohan flexed his jaw. \\\"i e from that trash stock, too,\\\" he said, a me igniting in his voice. （當貝吉塔朝門口走去時，戈漢咬緊了下頜。“我也來自那個廢物血統，”他說道，聲音中燃起了一把火焰。）
vegeta froze in his tracks. while gohan braced himself for any and all responses, he knew he had to assert himself; hell, the very same man across from him had urged him to do it. if he kept repressing his feelings every time vegeta did something to piss him off, he\\u0027d eventually go right back to square one. （貝吉塔突然停住了腳步。戈漢做好了準備，準備應對所有的迴應，他知道他必須堅持自己；他身邊的那個人曾敦促他這樣做。如果他繼續壓抑自己的情感，每當貝吉塔做一些讓他生氣的事情時，他最終會迴到原點。）
instead, vegeta grunted and turned his head in his direction. \\\"you wished those people back?\\\" （相反，貝吉塔唿哧一聲，轉過頭看向戈漢。“你把那些人都複活了嗎？”）
gohan stared at vegeta\\u0027s back, trying to see through the other side to figure out his expression. he didn\\u0027t need to figure out his answer, and suspected vegeta already knew it, anyway. （戈漢凝視著貝吉塔的背影，試圖透過另一邊看出他的表情。他不需要弄清楚貝吉塔的答案，而且他懷疑貝吉塔已經知道了。）
\\\"yes. \\\" （“是的。”）
vegeta turned back around, his eyes less rigid. （貝吉塔轉過身來，他的眼神不再那麽堅硬。）
\\\"good. \\\" （“很好。”）
he left, leaving gohan to sigh out of exasperation. not a moment went by where the saiyan prince didn\\u0027t leave gohan with questions. it appeared that bulma had rubbed off on him…which, given recent events was probably the absolute worst choice of words to describe such a thing. （他離開了，讓戈漢無奈地歎了口氣。每時每刻，賽亞人王子都會讓戈漢心生疑問。看來布爾瑪對他產生了影響...鑒於最近的事件，用這樣的話來形容這種影響或許是絕對最糟糕的選擇。）
\\\"vegeta.\\\"
“維吉塔。”
his name being called, he stopped and turned around.
他聽到名字被叫住，停下來轉身。
gohan took a deep breath, gathering the words from his chest.
悟飯深吸一口氣，從胸中收集起言辭。
\\\"i don\\u0027t know if i\\u0027ll ever forgive you. but i respect you. and until frieza\\u0027s dead, that\\u0027s all that really matters.\\\"
“我不知道我是否會原諒你。但我尊重你。在弗利薩死之前，這才是真正重要的。”
the two saiyans stared at each other for a few moments in silent understanding.
兩名賽亞人默默地相互凝視了幾秒鍾，彼此心領神會。
trying to remain stoic and guarded, vegeta tugged his arms and looked away.
維吉塔試圖保持冷靜和警戒，他拉了拉手臂，扭過頭去。
\\\"hn. well, if you respected me, you wouldn\\u0027t have tried subjecting me to a year with kakarot.\\\"
“哼。嗯，如果你尊重我，你就不會試圖讓我和卡卡羅特一起度過一年。”
gohan breathed a small sigh of relief. he had hoped that their rtionship wouldn\\u0027t somehow bee sappier in the face of vegeta\\u0027s contrition.
悟飯輕輕鬆了口氣。他希望他們的關係不會在維吉塔的懊悔麵前變得更加傷感。
\\\"i don\\u0027t want to spend another year in that ce. besides, you\\u0027ll get more out of it, training with somebody on the same level.\\\"
“我不想再在那個地方度過一年。而且，你和一個相同水平的人一起訓練，你會得到更多好處。”
vegeta lowered his arms, his usual edge returning.
維吉塔放下了手臂，他平日的銳氣迴歸。
\\\"and what\\u0027s that supposed to mean?\\\"
“那又是什麽意思？”
\\\"take of it what you will.\\\"
“你想怎麽理解就怎麽理解。”
gohan\\u0027s reply came with just enough arrogance to arch vegeta\\u0027s prominent brows.
悟飯的迴答帶著足夠的傲慢，讓維吉塔挑起了他明顯的眉毛。
but it was true; even before the room, he had already been at least twice as strong as vegeta.
但這是真的；即使在進入房間之前，他已經比維吉塔強大至少兩倍。
a year of training in that hellscape and getting a stronger hold on his mind had taken his power to thresholds he didn\\u0027t ever imagine possible in his lifetime.
在那個地獄般的地方進行了一年的訓練，更加掌控了他的思維，使他的力量達到了他一生中從未想象過的境界。
\\\"i don\\u0027t know if you know this,\\\" vegeta began, squaring his shoulders, \\\"but i\\u0027ve recovered from you beating me within an inch of my life, and the boost has increased my power leaps and bounds. even with your training, i\\u0027d bet we\\u0027re a lot closer than you\\u0027d think.\\\"
“我不知道你是否知道，”維吉塔開始，挺直肩膀，“但我已經從你將我打得生死邊緣中恢複過來，而這種提升使我的力量突飛猛進。即使加上你的訓練，我敢打賭我們之間的差距比你想象的要小得多。”
\\\"you think so?\\\" gohan challenged. obviously, he couldn\\u0027t sense vegeta\\u0027s real power, but he doubted one power-up would even e close to matching his training gains.
“你這麽認為？”悟飯挑戰道。顯然，他無法感知到維吉塔真正的力量，但他懷疑一個力量提升甚至無法接近他的訓練收益。
\\\"let\\u0027s bet on it, then. if you can beat me in the gravity room, i\\u0027ll go in there with you instead of my father.\\\"
“那麽就來打賭吧。如果你能在重力房間裏打敗我，我就和你一起進去，而不是和我父親一起。”
\\\"easy money,\\\" vegeta boasted. \\\"even if you\\u0027re a little stronger, you don\\u0027t have my fighting experience. meet me there in ten minutes.\\\"
“輕而易舉的賺錢，”維吉塔吹噓道。“即使你稍微強一點，你也沒有我的戰鬥經驗。十分鍾後在那裏見麵。”
he sighed with delight. 他滿心歡喜地歎了口氣。
like arepa once said – you had to put some sizzle on it. 就像阿瑞帕曾經說的 - 你得加點火力。
he squeezed his facial muscles and his eyes, trying to stop himself. 但他用力皺起眉頭，閉緊雙眼，試圖控製自己。
but his tears broke through the dam. 然而，他的眼淚衝破了阻礙。
this was truly home, like he had never left. 這才是真正的家，就像他從未離開過一樣。
the boy covered his eyes, weary of embarrassing himself as his feelings rolled down his cheeks. 男孩捂住雙眼，擔心自己因為情感泛濫而出醜。
goku returned from the kitchen. 悟空從廚房迴來了。
\\\"just waitin\\u0027 on you, go-\\\" \\\"隻等你了，悟-\\\"
the proud father stopped to smile graciously at his son. 這位自豪的父親停下來，親切地對兒子微笑。
as gohan continued sobbing, goku walked over and grabbed his shoulder with his firm hand. 當悟飯繼續抽泣時，悟空走過去，用有力的手抓住他的肩膀。
gohan pulled his hands away from his face to look up at him, shing back to one of the many days he spent in the living room as a child. 悟飯把手從臉上拿開，抬頭看著他，迴想起他小時候在客廳度過的一天。
\\\"wele home,\\\" goku said. \\\"歡迎迴家，\\\"悟空說道。
about an hourter, for the first time ever, the entire family sat down at a table covered in tes of expertly prepared meat and vegetables. 大約一個小時後，整個家庭第一次坐在鋪滿精心準備的肉和蔬菜的餐桌旁。
on one side sat the parents, goku and chi-chi. 一側坐著父母，悟空和琪琪。
and on the other, sat gohan and his little brother, goten. 另一側坐著悟飯和他的小弟弟，悟天。
the pint-sized clone of goku had been sitting in a high chair and talking gohan\\u0027s ear off. 這個縮小版的悟空一直坐在高椅上，不停地和悟飯聊個不停。
\\\"you were really in space?!\\\"
\\\"你真的在太空裏嗎？！\\\"
\\\"were there stars?!\\\"
\\\"那裏有星星嗎？！\\\"
\\\"were there aliens?!\\\"
\\\"那裏有外星人嗎？！\\\"
\\\"can you talk alien?\\\"
\\\"你會說外星語嗎？\\\"
\\\"do you have a ufo?!\\\"
\\\"你有飛碟嗎？！\\\"
things of that nature.
類似這樣的事情。
gohan had given up trying to answer, wondering if he had been as hyperactive and inquisitive at that age.
悟飯已經放棄了迴答，想著自己在那個年紀是否也如此活潑好奇。
the more he thered, the stronger gohan\\u0027s motivation grew. he had to fight so this kid could stay exactly that – a kid. he wouldn\\u0027t have to live in a universe overshadowed by frieza, where his saiyan blood would eventually force him to fight a generational war.
他越是嘮叨，悟飯的動力就越強烈。他必須戰鬥，讓這個孩子能夠保持孩子的狀態。他不需要生活在被弗利薩籠罩的宇宙中，那裏他的賽亞人血統最終會迫使他參與一場代際戰爭。
ughing, goku reached out to grab a piece of fish, but chi-chi pped his hand. \\\"hold it, goku. we ain\\u0027t said grace yet!\\\"
悟空笑著伸手抓起一塊魚肉，但是琪琪打了他的手。“等一下，悟空。我們還沒有說感恩的話呢！”
goku whined, his face eager to dig into all of the food in front of him. \\\"aw, c\\u0027mon, we literally know god! he doesn\\u0027t care if we thank him for the food!\\\"
悟空抱怨道，他的臉上充滿了對麵前所有食物的渴望。“啊，拜托，我們實際上認識上帝！他不會介意我們感謝他為食物！”
chi-chi rolled her eyes. \\\"well, what about the other deities, then?\\\"
琪琪翻了個白眼。“那其他神祗呢？”
\\\"king kai hates it when i eat everything up.\\\"
“界王大人討厭我把東西全吃光。”
utterly exasperated, chi-chi looked straight ahead at her eldest son. \\\"y\\u0027see this, gohan? day after day o\\u0027 this. it\\u0027s like i\\u0027m raisin\\u0027 two kids.\\\"
琪琪徹底被搞瘋，直勾勾地看著她的大兒子。“悟飯，你看到了嗎？每天都是這樣，就像是我在撫養兩個孩子。”
gohanughed, though he knew it was a fool\\u0027s battle to get between a saiyan and their food. he was eager to eat, himself. back on mamba, he had said he didn\\u0027t deserve a home-cooked meal. even now, he still wasn\\u0027t sure – but he wasn\\u0027t going to worry about that. he was just going to enjoy it.
悟飯笑了起來，盡管他知道在賽亞人和他們的食物之間爭奪是一場傻瓜的戰鬥。他自己也迫不及待地想吃。在曼巴星球上，他曾經說過自己不配有一頓家常飯。即使現在，他仍然不確定——但他不會為此擔心。他隻是要好好享受。
\\\"now, boys…\\\" chi-chi directed with a stern mand that stiffened even goku\\u0027s posture. he gave goten a bargaining nod, and then sped his hands together. goten did the same. \\\"i humbly ept this meal,\\\" they both said.
“現在，孩子們……”琪琪以嚴厲的命令指導，連悟空的姿態都變得僵硬起來。他對著悟天使了個商量的點頭，然後合起雙手。悟天也這樣做。“我謙卑地接受這頓飯，”他們倆都說道。
and despite only knowing him as he was for a few days now, chi-chi looked at gohan expectantly, and with warning.
盡管隻是在過去的幾天裏認識他，琪琪期待地看著悟飯，帶著警告的眼神。
relieved or not, she damn sure expected him to respect the household, and gohan would oblige or else hell awaited him.
無論是否如釋重負，她可確實希望他尊重家庭，否則地獄就等著他。
he sped his hands together, marveling at all of the food that had been delicately prepared for his liking, from the mother he had been separated from to fight a destined battle. \\\"i humbly ept this meal.\\\"
他雙手合十，驚歎於為他精心準備的所有食物，這些食物來自他為了命運之戰而與母親分離的人。“我謙卑地接受這頓飯。”
about thirty minutester, gohan and goku were both limping out of the house, overstuffed with food.
大約三十分鍾後，悟飯和悟空都吃得飽飽的，一瘸一拐地走出了屋子。
never in his life had gohan ever overindulged in such a way, but like most things with goku, it became a petition.
悟飯在他的一生中從未過度沉溺於這種程度，但和悟空一樣，這也變成了一場競爭。
if his father could knock down a te, then so could he. though sure he was going to regret this in the bathroomter, he enjoyed it nheless.
如果他的父親能吃掉一盤，那麽他也能。盡管他肯定以後會後悔這一點，但他仍然很享受。
\\\"nothin\\u0027 like home cookin\\u0027, huh?\\\" goku groggily asked.
“沒有什麽比家常菜更好的了，對吧？”悟空朦朧地問道。
\\\"yeah,\\\" gohan replied, clutching his stomach. \\\"i\\u0027ll be headin\\u0027 to the lookout soon, so good luck talkin\\u0027 vegeta down. it was great to see you back here.\\\"
“是的，”悟飯迴答道，緊緊抓著自己的肚子。“我馬上就要去神界了，所以祝你好運說服貝吉塔。很高興看到你迴到這裏。”
gohan nodded, the feeling being more than mutual.
悟飯點了點頭，這種感覺是相互的。after craning his neck, gohan prepared to fly away, until he felt a presence approaching.
他伸長脖子準備飛走，直到他感到有人靠近。
the leaves shaking and footsteps rumbled in his ear, and the steps didn\\u0027t belong to an animal. it sounds more like a pair of boots.
樹葉的顫動和腳步聲在他耳邊響起，而腳步聲並不屬於動物。更像是一雙靴子。
after a nce to his left, his jaw dropped. \\\pis!\\\"
他向左瞥了一眼，他的下巴都要掉下來了。“拉皮斯！”
he was back, standing nearby amongst the trees and petting a deer\\u0027s head. he turned away to look at gohan, an unreadable expression in his nk eyes.
他迴來了，站在附近的樹林中，撫摸著一隻鹿的頭。他轉過頭看著悟飯，眼睛中有著難以捉摸的表情。
goku stepped back while gohan swallowed heavily, unable to pry his vision away from the hole in the middle ofpis\\u0027 shirt.
悟空後退了一步，而悟飯則沉重地咽了口口水，無法從拉皮斯襯衫中間的洞眼移開視線。
it was a reminder of why he had gone through all the trouble he had to get the dragon balls. a gust of wind set in, jostling their hair back and forth while gohan wondered what was about to happen.
這讓他想起了他為何要費盡周折去找龍珠的原因。一陣風吹來，搖晃著他們的頭發，悟飯想知道接下來會發生什麽。
his sister had explosively reacted to gohan over the murder; he didn\\u0027t expect any different from the actual victim, regardless of their understanding.
他的妹妹對於謀殺案發生後對悟飯的反應激烈；他不管對方是否理解，都不指望受害者有什麽不同的反應。
whatever was in store, though, gohan would face it head on.pis took a few steps forward, closing the gap until only a few feet stood between the two. every muscle in gohan\\u0027s body tightened with unyielding tension.
無論未來會帶來什麽，悟飯都將迎頭麵對。拉皮斯向前邁了幾步，拉近了兩人之間的距離，隻剩下幾英尺的空間。悟飯全身的肌肉緊繃，緊張無比。
pis\\u0027 gaze wouldn\\u0027t let up as gohan searched for the right words to say. a cliché apology wouldn\\u0027t cut it.pis opened his mouth first, however.
拉皮斯的目光沒有停歇，悟飯尋找著恰當的話語。陳詞濫調的道歉並不能解決問題。然而，拉皮斯先開了口。\\\"you ruined my favorite shirt.\\\"
“你毀了我最喜歡的襯衫。”
having been granted forgiveness he wasn\\u0027t even sure he deserved, gohan flew to west city with a weight lifted off his shoulders.
雖然他甚至不確定是否配得上原諒，但得到寬恕後，悟飯輕鬆地飛往西都。
he was surezuli was ted to seepis turn back up at roshi\\u0027s ind. now, all he need worry about was whether or not vegeta would be receptive to a year with goku in the hyperbolic time chamber.
他確信拉祖利對於看到拉皮斯再次出現在羅斯希的島上感到欣喜。現在，他唯一需要擔心的就是維吉塔是否會接受與悟空一起在超時空房間度過一年。
like everyone usually did, gohan entered the pound through bulma\\u0027s balcony, surprised that the door had been destroyed.
和其他人一樣，悟飯通常從布爾瑪的陽台進入建築物，驚訝地發現門已經被破壞了。
he could sense vegeta\\u0027s ki downstairs, surprised to feel it under duress like in the middle of a training session even though he wasn\\u0027t in the spaceship.
他可以感覺到樓下維吉塔的氣，驚訝地感受到它承受著壓力，就像在訓練中一樣，盡管他並不在飛船上。
after the long walk downstairs, gohan reached the door to bulma\\u0027sboratory, where he sensed her in there, too.
下了漫長的樓梯，悟飯來到布爾瑪實驗室的門口，他也能感覺到她在裏麵。
now it made sense why vegeta\\u0027s ki was strained – probably yelling at her about the gravity settings.
現在維吉塔的氣為何如此緊張有了解釋——可能是因為他在對她大聲抱怨重力設置。
gohan knocked on the door a couple of times, but got no response. so he walked to the keypad by the door, having figured out how to hack it after a few break-ins.
悟飯敲了幾下門，但沒有迴應。於是他走到門旁邊的鍵盤上，他在幾次闖入後搞清楚了如何入侵。
as he input a few things, he overheard a rumbling from the other side of the door, and even voices.
當他輸入了一些內容時，他聽到了門的另一邊傳來的隆隆聲，甚至還有聲音。
\\\"call me a vulgar fucking subus again!\\\"
“再次稱唿我為下流的淫婦！”
\\\"vulgar…subus…demon wench!\\\"
“下流的……淫婦……惡魔婊子！”
\\\"yeah, that\\u0027s right, you fucking bad man!\\\" （是的，沒錯，你這個該死的壞蛋！）
the half-saiyan smirked. （半個賽亞人得意地笑了笑。） of course those two were at each other\\u0027s throats. （當然，那兩個人總是爭吵個不停。） he could have been away for a legitimate year, and that wouldn\\u0027t have changed. （哪怕他離開了一整年，情況也不會有所改變。） following a push of a button, the door slid open. （按下一個按鈕，門滑開了。）
what gohan saw in theb made him wish he had just given up after knocking. （戈漢在實驗室裏看到的讓他希望自己在敲門後就放棄了。）
bulma and vegeta were on a desk. （布爾瑪和貝吉塔在一張桌子上。） bulma had one hand pressed against vegeta\\u0027s neck while the other had pped him in the face just as the door slid open. （布爾瑪一隻手按在貝吉塔的脖子上，另一隻手在門滑開時抽了他一巴掌。） vegeta had been under her, lying with his back on the desk. （貝吉塔則躺在桌子上，背靠著桌麵。） vegeta had one hand lightly grasped around her neck. （貝吉塔的一隻手輕輕抓住她的脖子。） neither looked angry. （兩人看起來都不生氣。） in fact, they had both been staring at each other with unhinged, psychotic smiles. （事實上，他們兩人一直用著瘋狂的笑容盯著對方。）
from the waist up, it looked like they were fighting. （從腰部以上看，他們看起來像是在爭吵。） from the waist down, it was disgustingly clear that they were not fighting, but rather…another verb that started with the letter f. （從腰部以下看，令人厭惡地清楚他們並不是在爭吵，而是……另一個以字母f開頭的動詞。）
all of the pleasure drained from their faces when they realized gohan was looking right at them. （當他們意識到戈漢正在盯著他們看時，他們臉上的所有愉悅都消失了。） the teenager could not pry his eyes away from them even though he wanted to even more than killing frieza. （即使他比殺死弗利薩還想把目光從他們身上移開，但這位十幾歲的少年還是無法撇開他們的眼睛。）
every chunk of food he had engorged himself with minutes earlier rose back up to his throat. （他剛才狼吞虎咽的每一口食物都湧上喉嚨。）
he could ment on the scene with only one expression. （麵對這一幕，他隻能用一個表情來評論。）
\\\"e!\\\" （\\\"呸！\\\")
vegeta shoved bulma off of his body and scrambled to pull his tights up. （貝吉塔將布爾瑪從自己身上推開，然後急忙拉起自己的緊身褲。） with his sheer strength, however, he wound up tossing her off the desk entirely and her body smacked the floor with a loud thud. （然而，憑借他的強大力量，他卻將她整個人從桌子上扔了下去，她的身體發出巨大的撞擊聲。） gohan desperately looked away while bulma stood up, ring at vegeta and not bothering to put her pants back on. （戈漢拚命地別過頭，而布爾瑪則站了起來，怒視著貝吉塔，也懶得穿迴褲子。） his disgust overriding his teenage urges, gohan pped his hand over his eyes. （他厭惡的感覺壓倒了他作為十幾歲少年的衝動，戈漢一把手捂住了自己的眼睛。）
\\\"vegeta, you dick! do i look like a blow-up doll to you?!\\\" bulma yelled, sounding like she\\u0027d just ran a fewps. （\\\"貝吉塔，你這個混蛋！我看起來像充氣娃娃嗎？！\\\"布爾瑪大聲喊道，聽起來像是剛剛跑了幾圈。）
\\\"bloomers!\\\" vegeta yelled. （\\\"襯褲！\\\"貝吉塔大喊一聲。）
\\\"that is not my name!\\\" （\\\"那不是我的名字！\\\")
\\\"your bloomers!\\\" （\\\"你的襯褲！\\\")
\\\"motherfu-!\\\" （\\\"該死的-！\\\")
\\\"i\\u0027m saying put your damn bloomers on, idiot!\\\" （\\\"我是說給我穿上該死的襯褲，白癡！\\\")
\\\"...oh.\\\" （\\\"...哦。\\\")
after waiting a few moments until he was sure it was safe, gohan lowered his hand, but still couldn\\u0027t bring himself to turn towards them without unseeing…that. （在等待了幾分鍾，確保安全之後，戈漢放下了手，但他仍然無法轉身麵對他們，無法忘記...那個場景。）
vegeta broke the uneasy silence with a clearing of his throat, and then bulma rushed to gohan and put her hand on his shoulder. （貝吉塔清了清嗓子打破了尷尬的沉默，然後布爾瑪衝到戈漢身邊，把手放在他的肩膀上。）
gohan flung his arm away like her hand was covered in toxic waste, and bulma flinched once she realized her error. （戈漢猛地甩開了手臂，好像她的手被有毒廢物覆蓋著一樣，布爾瑪意識到自己的錯誤後畏縮了一下。）
she nervously twiddled her thumbs. \\\"okay, so i know you probably never got the talk, but what you saw was two consenting adults-\\\" （她緊張地擰動著拇指。“好吧，我知道你可能從來沒有接受過這方麵的教育，但你看到的是兩個自願的成年人-”）
\\\"shut the fuck up!\\\" both gohan and vegeta screamed. （\\\"閉嘴！\\\"戈漢和貝吉塔同時喊道。）
\\\"\\u0027kay!\\\" （\\\"好的！\\\")
bulma slid back with a nervousugh and rushed out of the room. （布爾瑪緊張地笑著後退，匆匆離開了房間。）
now all alone, gohan and vegeta continued avoiding eye contact. （現在他們兩個人獨自一人，戈漢和貝吉塔繼續避免眼神交流。）
from the asional nce, gohan could see red marks all around vegeta\\u0027s face; what the hell were they doing? actually, he didn\\u0027t want to know. （從偶爾的瞥視中，戈漢可以看到貝吉塔臉上到處都是紅印；他們到底在幹什麽？實際上，他不想知道。）
but, figuring he would have to say something eventually, gohan turned his red face towards him. （但是，他知道自己最終必須說點什麽，戈漢把臉轉向貝吉塔。）
\\\"what the fuck, dude?\\\" （\\\"搞什麽鬼，夥計？\\\")
with a roll of the eyes, vegeta defensively folded his arms. （vegeta翻了個白眼，防守地叉起雙臂。）
\\\"don\\u0027t act like you haven\\u0027t seen me do worse.\\\" （“別假裝你沒看見我做過更糟的事情。”）
okay sure, that might have been true. but he never saw him do that. （好吧，可能是真的。 但他從未見過他這麽做過。）
\\\"and haven\\u0027t you heard of knocking?\\\" （“你難道沒聽說過敲門嗎？”）
\\\"i did,\\\" gohan replied, narrowing his eyes. \\\"but apparently you two were too…preupied.\\\" （“我敲過了，”戈漢迴答著，眼睛眯了起來。“但顯然你們兩個太……專注了。”）
\\\"hn. like you don\\u0027t fantasize about doing the same thing with that loudmouth girl.\\\" （“哼。 就好像你沒想過和那個喋喋不休的女孩做同樣的事情一樣。”）
gohan\\u0027s face red as red as the human body allowed. vegeta certainly had him there. regardless, he shook his head, trying to erase away the memory. after seeing that, he\\u0027d pletely forgotten why the hell he had even been looking for vegeta in the first ce. （戈漢的臉變得和人類身體允許的一樣紅了起來。 貝吉塔當然對他說中了。盡管如此，他搖了搖頭，試圖抹去那個記憶。在看到那一幕之後，他完全忘記了他到底為什麽要找貝吉塔。）
he was about to turn around, until he noticed vegeta\\u0027s scrutinizing gaze. （他正要轉身，直到他注意到貝吉塔審視的目光。）
\\\"…since when are we the same height?\\\" the prince asked. （“…我們從什麽時候開始是一樣的身高了？”王子問道。）
gohan opened his mouth to reply and gasped once he realized that answered his own problem, too. \\\"oh, right. about that…up in the sky, where this\\u0027s god lives in his sanctuary, there\\u0027s this room called the hyperbolic time chamber. time and space operate differently in there – a day out here is a whole year in there. \\\" （戈漢張開嘴要迴答，一旦他意識到這也解決了他自己的問題，他倒抽了一口氣。“哦，對了。關於那個……在天空中，這個星球的神住在他的聖地裏，有一個叫做超時空房間的地方。在那裏時間和空間運作得不同——外麵的一天在裏麵就是一整年。”）
\\\"seriously?\\\" vegeta asked, his eyes widening with intrigue. （“真的嗎？”貝吉塔問道，他的眼睛因好奇而睜大了。）
\\\"i spent the whole year…day…\\\" gohan sighed, still finding the whole deal disorienting. \\\"…whatever. i trained in there with polo. \\\" （“我度過了整整一年……一天……”戈漢歎了口氣，仍然覺得整個事情令人迷惑。“……反正。我在那裏和畢克洛一起訓練。”）
vegeta raised his eyebrow. \\\"who?\\\" （貝吉塔挑了挑眉。“誰？”）
\\\"the namekian.\\\" （“那個那美克星人。”）
reflexively, vegeta sucked his teeth at polo\\u0027s mention. （貝吉塔一聽到提到畢克洛，本能地咂了咂牙。）
\\\"what the hell doesn\\u0027t this have? but if it worked for you then it will obviously work for me. with a setup like that, i wouldn\\u0027t need to worry about when frieza arrives. \\\" （“這個星球到底缺什麽？但如果對你有效，顯然對我也有效。有了那樣的安排，我就不必擔心弗利薩什麽時候來了。”）
\\\"i think you should train in there with my father. you two will both get stronger. \\\" （“我認為你應該和我父親一起在那裏訓練。你們兩個都會變得更強。”）
as gohan expected, disgust immediately took hold of vegeta\\u0027s face. and considering the highs he was apparently running on before gohan arrived, the idea was obviously the furthest thing from his desires. （正如戈漢所料，貝吉塔的臉上立刻露出厭惡之色。考慮到戈漢到來之前他顯然是如此高漲的狀態，這個想法顯然是他最不希望的事情。）
\\\"him?\\\" he sneered. \\\"you expect me to spend a year in some room with that sellout court jester? apparently, your year in there did a number on your mon sense. \\\" （“他？”他嘲笑道。“你指望我和那個賣身的玩笑雜耍者一起在一個房間裏度過一年？顯然，你在那裏的一年讓你的常識受到了一些影響。”）
gohan rolled his eyes. the saiyan prince truly was as stubborn as they came. \\\"he\\u0027s already sold on it, and he\\u0027s waiting up there. \\\" （戈漢翻了個白眼。這位賽亞人王子確實如同他們的性格一樣固執。“他已經同意了，並且他在上麵等著。”）
with clenched teeth, vegeta leaned against the desk, drumming his fingers along the edge. gohan knew that look on vegeta\\u0027s face – he was giving it legitimate thought, but at the same time devising reasons not to do it. the only appeal that would work would be to his pride. （貝吉塔咬緊牙關，靠在桌子上，用手指敲擊著邊緣。戈漢知道貝吉塔臉上的表情——他正在認真考慮，同時想出不去做的理由。唯一能起作用的誘因就是他的自尊心。）
gohan locked his eyes onto vegeta\\u0027s, trying to project his intensity onto him. \\\"i know you want another crack at him. you\\u0027ll have 365 whole days to get it. \\\" （戈漢盯著貝吉塔的眼睛，試圖將他的強烈願望傳遞給他。“我知道你想再次與他一決高下。你將有整整365天來實現它。”）
vegeta\\u0027s eye twitched. he scratched the edge of the desk hard enough that its shavings fell to the floor, hissing in anger. if gohan knew anything about him, the memory of his spine being snapped was embedded in his brain. with how much ss hierarchy meant to the prince of all saiyans, he probably wanted to defeat goku nearly as badly as he did frieza. （貝吉塔的眼睛抽搐了一下。他用力刮了刮桌子的邊緣，足夠強烈，使桌子的碎屑掉到地上，咬牙切齒地發出聲音。如果戈漢了解他的一些情況，他的脊椎被折斷的記憶已經深深烙印在他的腦海中。對於所有賽亞人的王子來說，階級等級意味著很多，他可能和對待弗利薩一樣渴望擊敗悟空。）
after a growl, vegeta replied, \\\"i could train with you in there, e back out and wipe the floor with him all the same. \\\" （貝吉塔咆哮著迴答道：“我可以和你一起在那裏訓練，然後出來時照樣把他踩在腳下。”）
gohan snickered. \\\"by then, you\\u0027d be so much stronger than him it\\u0027d be no better than pushing around raditz. \\\" （戈漢竊笑道：“到那時，你將比他強大得多，和推著拉迪茨沒什麽兩樣。”）
\\\"because that\\u0027s exactly what he is. \\\" vegeta hopped off the disheveled desk. \\\"he\\u0027s from the same trash stock, and is to be disposed of as such. \\\" （“因為他就是那樣的。”貝吉塔從淩亂的桌子上跳了下來。“他來自同樣的廢物血統，應該被清除。”）
as vegeta headed for the door, gohan flexed his jaw. \\\"i e from that trash stock, too,\\\" he said, a me igniting in his voice. （當貝吉塔朝門口走去時，戈漢咬緊了下頜。“我也來自那個廢物血統，”他說道，聲音中燃起了一把火焰。）
vegeta froze in his tracks. while gohan braced himself for any and all responses, he knew he had to assert himself; hell, the very same man across from him had urged him to do it. if he kept repressing his feelings every time vegeta did something to piss him off, he\\u0027d eventually go right back to square one. （貝吉塔突然停住了腳步。戈漢做好了準備，準備應對所有的迴應，他知道他必須堅持自己；他身邊的那個人曾敦促他這樣做。如果他繼續壓抑自己的情感，每當貝吉塔做一些讓他生氣的事情時，他最終會迴到原點。）
instead, vegeta grunted and turned his head in his direction. \\\"you wished those people back?\\\" （相反，貝吉塔唿哧一聲，轉過頭看向戈漢。“你把那些人都複活了嗎？”）
gohan stared at vegeta\\u0027s back, trying to see through the other side to figure out his expression. he didn\\u0027t need to figure out his answer, and suspected vegeta already knew it, anyway. （戈漢凝視著貝吉塔的背影，試圖透過另一邊看出他的表情。他不需要弄清楚貝吉塔的答案，而且他懷疑貝吉塔已經知道了。）
\\\"yes. \\\" （“是的。”）
vegeta turned back around, his eyes less rigid. （貝吉塔轉過身來，他的眼神不再那麽堅硬。）
\\\"good. \\\" （“很好。”）
he left, leaving gohan to sigh out of exasperation. not a moment went by where the saiyan prince didn\\u0027t leave gohan with questions. it appeared that bulma had rubbed off on him…which, given recent events was probably the absolute worst choice of words to describe such a thing. （他離開了，讓戈漢無奈地歎了口氣。每時每刻，賽亞人王子都會讓戈漢心生疑問。看來布爾瑪對他產生了影響...鑒於最近的事件，用這樣的話來形容這種影響或許是絕對最糟糕的選擇。）
\\\"vegeta.\\\"
“維吉塔。”
his name being called, he stopped and turned around.
他聽到名字被叫住，停下來轉身。
gohan took a deep breath, gathering the words from his chest.
悟飯深吸一口氣，從胸中收集起言辭。
\\\"i don\\u0027t know if i\\u0027ll ever forgive you. but i respect you. and until frieza\\u0027s dead, that\\u0027s all that really matters.\\\"
“我不知道我是否會原諒你。但我尊重你。在弗利薩死之前，這才是真正重要的。”
the two saiyans stared at each other for a few moments in silent understanding.
兩名賽亞人默默地相互凝視了幾秒鍾，彼此心領神會。
trying to remain stoic and guarded, vegeta tugged his arms and looked away.
維吉塔試圖保持冷靜和警戒，他拉了拉手臂，扭過頭去。
\\\"hn. well, if you respected me, you wouldn\\u0027t have tried subjecting me to a year with kakarot.\\\"
“哼。嗯，如果你尊重我，你就不會試圖讓我和卡卡羅特一起度過一年。”
gohan breathed a small sigh of relief. he had hoped that their rtionship wouldn\\u0027t somehow bee sappier in the face of vegeta\\u0027s contrition.
悟飯輕輕鬆了口氣。他希望他們的關係不會在維吉塔的懊悔麵前變得更加傷感。
\\\"i don\\u0027t want to spend another year in that ce. besides, you\\u0027ll get more out of it, training with somebody on the same level.\\\"
“我不想再在那個地方度過一年。而且，你和一個相同水平的人一起訓練，你會得到更多好處。”
vegeta lowered his arms, his usual edge returning.
維吉塔放下了手臂，他平日的銳氣迴歸。
\\\"and what\\u0027s that supposed to mean?\\\"
“那又是什麽意思？”
\\\"take of it what you will.\\\"
“你想怎麽理解就怎麽理解。”
gohan\\u0027s reply came with just enough arrogance to arch vegeta\\u0027s prominent brows.
悟飯的迴答帶著足夠的傲慢，讓維吉塔挑起了他明顯的眉毛。
but it was true; even before the room, he had already been at least twice as strong as vegeta.
但這是真的；即使在進入房間之前，他已經比維吉塔強大至少兩倍。
a year of training in that hellscape and getting a stronger hold on his mind had taken his power to thresholds he didn\\u0027t ever imagine possible in his lifetime.
在那個地獄般的地方進行了一年的訓練，更加掌控了他的思維，使他的力量達到了他一生中從未想象過的境界。
\\\"i don\\u0027t know if you know this,\\\" vegeta began, squaring his shoulders, \\\"but i\\u0027ve recovered from you beating me within an inch of my life, and the boost has increased my power leaps and bounds. even with your training, i\\u0027d bet we\\u0027re a lot closer than you\\u0027d think.\\\"
“我不知道你是否知道，”維吉塔開始，挺直肩膀，“但我已經從你將我打得生死邊緣中恢複過來，而這種提升使我的力量突飛猛進。即使加上你的訓練，我敢打賭我們之間的差距比你想象的要小得多。”
\\\"you think so?\\\" gohan challenged. obviously, he couldn\\u0027t sense vegeta\\u0027s real power, but he doubted one power-up would even e close to matching his training gains.
“你這麽認為？”悟飯挑戰道。顯然，他無法感知到維吉塔真正的力量，但他懷疑一個力量提升甚至無法接近他的訓練收益。
\\\"let\\u0027s bet on it, then. if you can beat me in the gravity room, i\\u0027ll go in there with you instead of my father.\\\"
“那麽就來打賭吧。如果你能在重力房間裏打敗我，我就和你一起進去，而不是和我父親一起。”
\\\"easy money,\\\" vegeta boasted. \\\"even if you\\u0027re a little stronger, you don\\u0027t have my fighting experience. meet me there in ten minutes.\\\"
“輕而易舉的賺錢，”維吉塔吹噓道。“即使你稍微強一點，你也沒有我的戰鬥經驗。十分鍾後在那裏見麵。”
