Chapter One

Dende squinted out at the bright rays of sunlight winking at him through the clouds. It was a nice, peaceful, spring day on the planet earth. Peaceful… He was thankful to say the word, that's exactly what it had been for the past few months, now that Buu was defeated. Piccolo was meditating as usual, and Mr. Popo was apparently taking a nap (A/N: what does Popo do with all that spare time, anyways??). But Dende found himself to be, well, there was no other word for it- bored. The thought of this made him feel spoiled, 'Come on, you should be happy there are no people trying to take over/ destroy the universe like there usually is.' he thought to himself. But he simply couldn't concentrate today. And he silently asked 'I wonder what Gohan is doing right now…'

Meanwhile, at Orange Star High School

"Oh, come on Videl," Sharpener urged. "It'll be fun!"

"Going out and getting wasted with you at a St. Patty's day party," Videl replied to Sharpener, who was once again pointlessly asking her out. "What the hell is your idea of fun?"

"Videl, you don't even have to have a drink! We could go somewhere that doesn't sell alcoholic beverages if you want!"

"Listen Sharpener," her tone of voice was obviously annoyed. "I'm not going on any sort of date, ride, walk, anything with you!" This left him with a rejected look on his face, which Videl completely ignored. "So Gohan, Erasa, what are you guys doing this weekend?"

"uhmm…" *sweat drop* Gohan wasn't exactly jumping out with an answer, Sharpener looked like he was about to burn the desk to cinders- he was absolutely fuming.

"Would you rather hang out with this dweeb!?" He exclaimed, jabbing his finger at Gohan.

"I'd take that dweeb over you in a flash!" Videl was not going to put up with him for another minute. Sharpener just grunted.

"So Erasa…" Gohan said trying to stay as much out of Videl and Sharpener's way as possible. "What's up?"

"Not too much… '^_^ " She replied- Videl was getting ready to bite Sharpener's head off (A/N: upper head:).

"Alright, settle down class," said the English teacher, very much to Gohan and Erasa's relief. Videl stopped fighting with Sharpener and concentrated on the booooorrrrring English lesson.

*Time Lapse- After School*

Gohan, Erasa, and Videl were walking down the halls, school had just gotten out.

"So how'd you get rid of Sharpener, Videl?" Erasa asked.

"I guess he finally got the picture," She answered. "but if I know him, that's the last thing that's happened. So really, what are you guys doing this weekend?"

"I'm all open," Gohan said.

"There's this great strip bar a few blocks South of here!" Videl said. "Its 2 bucks to get in, and then

"Well, its St. Patrick's day on Saturday," Erasa started. "and I was hoping I could get out to do something. Maybe go to a parade, or party??"

"There's this great strip bar a few blocks South of here!" Videl said. "Its 2 bucks to get in, and then drinks and everything are free! And the people there pay good cash for you to get up and do your own show. And on St. Patty's day, I heard they were having a contest to see who has the best 'St. Patrick's Spirit' with prize money of 20,000 zinny!"

"I dunno, Videl," Gohan said. "That prize money sounds nice but- I think the parade would probably be better."

"Alright! The parade is fine with me!" Videl said. "I haven't been to one in a couple of years!"

"Ok!" Erasa said. " So it looks like we're going to the parade. I'm not really sure when it is, so I'll call you guys with all the info first chance I get!" With this they all said their good-byes and headed on their ways.

While Gohan was flying home he thought 'I'm gonna do something special for Videl.' he blushed, but had to admit to himself, 'She's the greatest girl I've ever met and… I love her so much.' With this he did a few loops, Gohan was happy… Until he saw what he did once he got home.

The house was in ruins, Chichi was out in the used-to-be lawn with Goten. There was scraps of kitchen wear and other house hold materials scattered everywhere. It looked like some sort of a hurricane, tornado, and earthquake swept through all at once.

"MOM!" Gohan yelled. "What happened?" He landed in front of her. Chi Chi's tears, Gohan noticed, weren't tears of grief, but of anger. He backed away a little incase she exploded- You could never be too safe.

"grrrrrrr…… THAT AWFUL VEGETA!!! AND YOUR FATHER!!" She exclaimed, Gohan had a pretty good idea of what had happened. "THOSE TWO DECIDE IT'S A GOOD TIME TO START TRAINING!!! WELL LOOK WHAT HAPPENED TO THE HOUSE WHEN THEY DECIDE TO GET WARMED UP!!"

"Oh gosh mom, I'm really sorry. If there's anyway I can help-"

"IS THERE ANY WAY YOU CAN HELP?! WE DON'T HAVE A HOUSE, GOHAN!!! OR THE MONEY TO JUST, GET A NEW ONE!!!"

"I know mom, I know," Gohan said, trying to calm her down. "I'll bet Bulma and Vegeta would be willing to let us stay at their place until we get a place going. Or we could stay at Master Roshi's."

"I SHOULD SUE BULMA FOR THIS!!!" ChiChi was swiftly getting more and more POed. "THAT GIRL WAS TROUBLE FROM THE FIRST DAY I MET HER! RUNNING ALL AROUND SEARCHING FOR DRAGON BALLS SO SHE COULD WISH FOR HER OWN PERSONAL FUCK-BUDDY!!"

"Kame, mom- PIPE DOWN!" Goten said, coming out from the other side of the house ruins. "That's not a very nice thing to call Trunkses mom."

"Listen, we'll figure it all out somehow- Don't worry!" Gohan started back up with the reassuring, which of course did no good.

"DON'T WORRY MY ASS!!! IT DOES US NO GOOD TO SIT AROUND HERE AND TALK ABOUT DOING SOMETHING!!! YOU SAY YOUR GONNA FIGURE IT OUT?? GET TO WORK!!!" With this ChiChi stormed off, wailing some more at the mess of what had at one time been a happy household.

Then, a voice popped into Gohan's head, "I'll help!" it said.

"Huh? Who's there?" asked Gohan quietly, looking around.

"Its me, Dende! Im talking to you telepathically."

"Ooohhh, hey Dende!" Gohan said. "What's up? Yeah, some help would be great!" just then an idea popped into his head. But Dende, no, he'd never be willing to… "Are you sure you'd help out with anything?"

"Yeah sure Gohan," Dende said, so innocently (must be a virgin). "Its been a little low on action around here lately."

Gohan couldn't bear to bring Dende into this, but the words hammered at his thoughts; 'And on St. Patty's day, I heard they were having a contest to see who has the best 'St. Patrick's Spirit' with prize money of 20,000 zinny!' 20,000 zinny!!! With that sort of prize money Gohan could get his mom a new home-capsule and still have some left over to split with Dende and get a nice gift for Videl. But Dende, strip bar? They just didn't seem to click. But what other choice did he have? "Dende, I've got an idea of a way we could get the money."

"Really? That's great!"

"Yeah," Gohan said, what was he kidding himself? Dende was going to see, well, a completely new side of Gohan. "I'll meet you up at your place on St. Patrick's day, that's this Saturday, at 9:00 in the morning."

"Great! I'll see you then Gohan!"

"Yeah… See yaw," Gohan didn't know what he had gotten into, but whatever it was, it smelled really shitty. 'Well' he thought to himself. 'What the hell, whatever happens happens, right?' Gohan went off to find ChiChi and debate where they were going to stay that night.
