Disclamier: I do not own Dragonball or anything related to it
The Day after Cell
It was about 3am and Gohan had awoken startled. He was dreaming about the cell games and how it had taken his father away from him. He got up from his bed and pulled on the clothes that were nearest to him and slowly made his way out of the house trying not to wake his mother up. He flew away from the house and kept flying round the world continuously. He must have been flying for hours before he started to head for home.
By the time he got home he could sense that his mother was in the kitchen so instead of going into the house he headed for the lake which was near his house when he reached the lake that shimmered as the sun rose he stared up into the sky and decided he would try and talk with his dad again. "Father why didn't you come back mother and I are lost without you." he paused hoping for a reply. It never came. "If it wasn't for my arrogance you would still be hear."
At this moment Chi-Chi appeared and sat down next to him and whispered softly so that it was barely audible even for a saiyan's hearing. "You can't blame yourself Gohan your father made the decision not to come back not you. You can't blame yourself. If it weren't for you the entire Earth would have been destroyed and that includes your Father me and everyone you care about."
Gohan listened intently and spoke up when she finished "I know mum thank you your always know what to say to make me feel better. However I have been thinking since three in the morning about this and other things, and i've decided that i'm going to keep training"
Gohan barely had a chance to catch his breath before Chi-Chi launched into a rant that her baby boy will not fight anymore aliens or androids. "But mum…"
"Don't you but mum me you are not going to be a fighter you are going to be a scholar and you are going to go to university and get a degree."
By this time Gohan was looking at the ground scared that if he spoke up his mother would pull out her frying pan and give him a good whack around the head. But he had to do this for the sake of the Earth. "Mother I made a promise to dad that now he is gone I will be the one to protect the Earth and how am I suppose to do that when I can't train to get stronger."
By the end of the sentence he was standing up and shouting. When he realised what he was doing he looked at his mother and said "I'm sorry mum for shouting but you have to understand that I have no choice I'm the strongest on this planet so it is my duty to protect it"
"Ok Gohan I understand what you are saying and I accept that I can't change the way you are, but promise me that you will do at least three hours of studying a day I still want you to be a scholar." Gohan had been expecting this and answered only with a nod of approval. At this Gohan sighed a heavy sigh thanking Dende that his mother hadn't given him a lecture about how his studies were far more important than saving the Earth and then proceeded to strike him with her frying pan. As the silence began to build between mother and son they decided to head back home for breakfast. Back at the son house Chi-Chi prepared a saiyan's breakfast. As Chi-chi was washing the dishes Gohan went out to train.
He flew to west city to visit a certain saiyan prince about help with training. When he was flying high above the city he noticed a parade going on and decided to set down in an alley way to see what was going on little did he know that he was in for the shock of his life as he turned the corner to leave the alley he noticed a banner hanging across the street which read 'Mr Satan The Man Who Saved The World From Cell'. As Gohan looked at the banner his saiyan pride was damaged so he turned and started the hunt for Satan.
Gohan extended his senses looking the weak fool who took his credit for saving the earth. It didn't take him long to lock on to the weak ki which was surrounded by what seemed to be a massive crowd. As soon as Gohan had located Hercule he ran off towards his location as he was running he transformed into a super saiyan as his anger welled up inside of him, when he reached his destination he noticed that the greta satan was standing on a stage with a mic in his hand and he was doing what looked like a Q&A session with fans. Suddenly a smirk appeared on Gohan's face which would have made Vegeta proud. He floated up in the air and raised his hands to cup his mouth as he shouted "HEY SATAN"
At the sound of his name Mr Satan stopped doing the ridiculous poses he was in the middle of, and looked a round to put a name to the voice when he finally noticed the boy with blond spiky hair and teal eyes he gasped as he realised who was in front of him 'the true saviour of the earth'.
Plucking up what little courage he had he stuttered out a reply "Y-yes y-you at the back." When Gohan heard this he continued but this time with his normal speaking voice "I was wandering what you thought of the fighters which fought cell after you were sent flying into a mountain." Gohan looked on and was glad to see that his appearance had done what he intended it to do; Mr Satan was whiter than a white sheet.
After composing himself Mr Satan simply stated "Them Gold Fighters were a bunch of tricksters and were weaklings because of it." Gohan's smirk had now become glare and if looks could kill Hercule would be six feet under by now. Gohan broke the glare and laughed he found it amusing that this so called world champion had no concept of ki manipulation but it then dawned on him the true meaning of Mr Satan's words.
At this Gohan started to make his way to the front of the crowd and jumped up on the stage. He then made his way over to Mr Satan and stood as tall as he could "You dare to insult my father. He gave his life to defend this planet numerous times and to thank him you insult him." Mr Satan was shocked when he saw himself being dragged down to eye level with the demi-saiyan. He tried to rip his t-shirt from the child's grasp and realised that he could not, he then spoke up again. "Hey kid the truths the truth, your father was a weakling and judging on what you just said sounds like you need to see a shrink." As Mr Satan finished his sentence Gohan's hair got spikier and more golden and had now transformed into super saiyan two. He let go of the death grip he had on Mr Satan's collar and simply flew off into the distance leaving Mr Satan answering questions about how the kid could fly he simply responded "Tricks. It's all tricks."
One raven hair girl felt otherwise and spoke out against the man she called dad. "But daddy if it is tricks how they do it. I want to learn how to do it. It looks so much fun." Mr Satan simply turned to his daughter and realised that he couldn't tell her how to do it cause he honestly didn't know but then that would make for bad publicity so he did the only thing he knew how to do he shouted at her. "Now listen here Videl I refuse to explain how they use their tricks because it is cheating and there is no honour in cheating." Videl looked like she was about to cry but instead nodded and hung her head in shame of asking a stupid question.
Meanwhile
Thousands of miles away by now he was so angry with himself for getting himself get drawn into a situation like that. Gohan had now decided that he would start his training tomorrow and go home and chill off for another day but the only problem was he was having trouble finding his bearings so doing the only thing he could think of he locked on to his mothers ki. When he had found and locked on to his mother's ki he noticed there was another fairly powerful one close by and it seemed somewhat familiar so he flew as fast as he could to get home.
He got home within 5 minutes and walked threw the door only to find his mother all alone cooking in the kitchen. He decided that he would inquire about the other ki. "Hey mum when I located your ki to come home I felt two ki's in the room but when I got here there was just you…" Gohan paused as the realisation quickly dawned upon him. He quickly checked his mother's ki and found his suspicions to be true before his mother could even answer back Gohan shouted "Mum you're pregnant." Upon hearing from her eleven year old son that she was pregnant with her dead husband's child she did the only thing to do in this situation she fainted.
Chi-chi woke and found her self staring up into her son's onyx coloured eyes.
Gohan was glad to see that his mother was awake and well. "Hi mum" he said in a very calm and soothing voice. "I guess it was a bit of a shock finding out about the baby from me hehe." Chi-chi just glared up at her son allowing what he said to sink in. She finally realised what her son was saying and broke the silence which had been present for a good 5 minutes "Gohan are you sure about this." Gohan simply nodded a yes to his mother. "Very well then you're going to be a big brother and I hope that for your sake you set a good example to your baby brother or sister."
She said with a smile evidence of her happiness. Gohan who was now literally beaming at the prospect of being a big brother decided now would not be the time to tell his mother about what had happened early in the day. "Gohan are you alright it looks like something is bothering you." Gohan was shocked to say the least that his mother could read him so well and because he was raised to be a gentleman he could not lie to his mother.
"Well now that you mention it I went into west city to train with Vegeta, and I saw a parade going on so I went to look at what was happening and I saw that man with the afro from the cell games claming that he beat cell and everyone believed him. But that's not all he insulted father and I got angry and threatened him."
Chi-chi was not only shocked to find out about this no good lying cheat claming her sons credit but she was disgraced that he had the audacity to insult her late husband. "Gohan come on were taking a trip to find this Satan." Gohan was surprised by his mother, for she never before sought a confrontation.
"Mum are you sure. How about I go find him and ill drop you of at capsule corp to deliver the good news." He said this with concern etched into his face. His mother noticed this and replied by simply nodding her head in agreement. This is when Gohan spoke up again "Ok mum ill drop you off at CC and then ill go pay a visit to the afro-man."
They both walked outside and Gohan set off flying alongside his mother who was on the nimbus. They made quick time to west city and when Gohan had noticed that his mother had made it safely to CC he set off in search of the big oaf who stole his credit. He extended his senses and quickly found that he was no longer in west city but what seemed to be a different city not to far away from where he was flying. He did a sharp turn and flew off into the direction of the oaf.
When he arrived at the location he found the louts ki signature coming from he found him self at what looked like a small village in it self. He flew over the gates and landed over by the door and quickly went super, he had a plan and thought it might be fun to mess with the fool. Gohan knocked loudly and using his saiyan hearing heard footsteps coming towards the door. When the door opened he had to look up at the man who was wearing a penguin suit 'obviously a butler' thought Gohan. His thoughts were disturbed when he heard aloud deep voice calling "Who is it Charles. If they want an autograph tell them it will cost 100 zeni." Mr Satan jaw literally dropped when he came round the corner and noticed the young blonde child from the press conference earlier that day. Gohan noticed this action and took this as his cue to talk. "Ah I see you remember me. I wish to talk in private with you, if I may."
Hercule nodded and led Gohan into one of the many rooms in his huge house, Gohan was use to the size of the house cause of the fact he has been round Bulma's house. They eventually stopped and Mr Satan sat while Gohan just stood in front of him. "Now I want to talk to you about the cell games. As you must have noticed I know you didn't defeat cell because I did but I am not here to claim my credit." Mr Satan was now somewhat confused and tried to think of how to respond but was cut short by Gohan speaking up again "No I don't want the publicity for me and my mother so thank you for taking that from us.
However what I want to talk about is how you insulted my father." Gohan was talking so softly his voice was nearly unrecognizable. Mr Satan had now found his voice "Ok your welcome. And as for your father I can't help it if he is a no good trickster who can't fight with honour. Gohan had again let his anger overwhelm him and had transformed into the next level of super saiyan.
"My father was a great man. The only reason you believe this…" Gohan had now formed a ki ball in his hands. "…is a trick is because you are so weak that you cannot do it." He then threw the ball at the couch next to the oaf and burnt a hole straight threw it. "Now where were we? Oh yes you were bad mouthing my father for the second time today. This is all I have to say to you, if I ever find you bad mouthing my father again not only wills your couch have a whole in it your stomach will." Mr Satan visibly paled as Gohan once again took flight, flying straight threw a window.
Little did they know that there was a very curious raven haired girl behind the wall listening to everything that was being said. She saw the boy around her age fly threw the window and her father pale. She walked up to him "Daddy what was that boy talking about and what was the ball of light in his hands?" she asked curiously. The colour rushed back to the oafs face as he answered "It was nothing dear just a little punk wanting an autograph who got a bit heavy. And that ball was just another trick."
Videl still didn't believe her father about the tricks but decided against arguing and she simply nodded a yes and walked back threw the maze of halls to her room and entered.
Meanwhile
Gohan had landed back at capsule corp and explained everything which had happened when he paid Satan a visit. From one of the corners of the room a little chuckle was heard and Vegeta emerged "You make a good saiyan kid." That was all he said as he walked back to resume his training, but was stopped by Gohan's voice "Hey Vegeta. I was wandering if you would want a sparring partner I mean being the strongest on the planet I think I would make a good one." Vegeta yet again let a chuckle escape his mouth and simply responded with his usual enthusiasm "Come on then brat we don't have all day now do we." At his the prince and the demi-saiyan left the room heading for the gravity room.
Bulma and Chi-chi looked on as the two left and decided that they best get cooking, well if you could call what Bulma does cooking.
Three Hours Later
Gohan and Vegeta emerged from the gravity room and headed to the kitchen as there saiyan appetite was kicking in. As soon as Gohan had entered the kitchen he was hugged by Bulma congratulating him on the news of him becoming a big brother. After Bulma had hugged the breath out of him the saiyans ate and after two dozen portions each they were finally full. After the meal Gohan and his mother flew home and went straight to bed. With Gohan dreaming about being a big brother and Chi-Chi having nightmares of when she gave birth to Gohan and how painful that was.
