"…and that’s touchdown," Trunks said as the ship made contact with the ground.
"That was certainly different," Goku said.
"Yeah. So far we’ve mostly landed in wide open spaces. This place has a fully functional spaceport, with ships coming and going, so it makes sense they would have a control system guiding all the ships to the proper hangar bays. It was actually kind of nice having someone leading me all the way down."
"Well, we’re here now, so let’s get out there and buy some more food so we don’t starve when we take off again," Pan said.
"I’ll never say no to food," Goku agreed. The three departed from their ship.
Once outside and on the floor of the hangar, the trio was greeted by an alien. Female, apparently, with green skin. She had on a type of shirt with three rows of ruffles, each dangling down. The rest of her body was obscured, as she stood behind a computer console that was a little taller than her waist. "Hello. I am here to welcome you to planet Lucum. I am Cluth."
"It’s nice to meet you," Trunks said, bowing. "My name is Trunks, and this is Goku and Pan. We’ve come to your planet to buy food for our trip. We don’t expect to be here too long."
"Even if you are here for a brief stay, you must be made aware of our rules and laws."
"Well, we certainly didn’t come here to start trouble."
"Nevertheless, aliens often balk at one major rule we all follow here."
"And what rule is that?" Pan asked.
Cluth stepped out from behind the console, allowing the others to see her entire body. Wrapped around her crotch was something that made them all take note. "According to our laws, everyone who sets foot on planet Lucum must wears diapers at all times."
Pan was the most shocked by this. "Diapers! But, why?"
"My people have never had the ability to control our urination or defecation. So, we have worn diapers for as long as we can remember. It is a necessity. When we made first contact with alien life, we learned that they had other ways of dealing with their bodily functions. The toilet, for instance. However, my people remain so incontinent that we are incapable of using such a device. Even if we could, many of us would still prefer our diapers as a matter of principle. We see no point in restructuring our cities to cater to aliens by filling them with things such as the toilet, which we ourselves cannot use, particularly when we have a system in place to deal with our dirty diapers. It is simpler if aliens such as yourselves adapt to our ways while you remain on Lucum."
"I see…" Trunks said.
"But, I’m not- I mean, we’re not babies!" Pan objected.
Cluth sighed. "Aliens are always so against this when they arrive. I ask that you make this entire process simpler for all of us and just allow me to diaper you."
"You want to diaper us?" Trunks asked. "You don’t want to let us do it ourselves?"
Cluth shook her head. "I need to make sure all of you are diapered. It is part of my duty. Also, as you will soon learn, it is easier to change someone else’s diapers than it is to change your own. Besides, I’m not sure if any of you have any experience changing diapers."
"I do!" Goku said. "I used to change Pan’s diapers when she was a baby." That made Pan blush.
"When she was…? Forgive me, but Pan seems older than you."
"It’s a long story," Pan muttered.
"At any rate, I have a job to do. So, would one of you please volunteer and allow me to diaper you?"
"But, but…" Pan did not like this at all.
"It’s okay Pan. We just need to wear the diapers long enough to go out there and stock up on food, then we’ll be on our way. If we’re lucky, we won’t even need to use them." Trunks addressed Cluth. "I’ll go first."
So, Cluth led Trunks away, leaving Goku and Pan alone. indicates the next chapter needs to be written. |
