Disclaimer- I do not own Dragonball Z, but I really wished I did.
AN- I have to thank the person who gave me this idea to write this story. The idea of Gohan, Videl, Erasa and Sharpner going to see a reenactment of the Cell Games was really great.
*~Gohan and his High school friends go to the movies~*
"Hey Videl, do you want to go to the movies tonight? Sharpner suggested that we go," Erasa said on the phone.
"Well I don't know."
"Gohan's gonna be there."
"Gohan? Well okay I'll go."
"I knew you would. I'll meet you in front of the theater a little before 6:30 okay?"
"Okay Erasa see ya soon."
___________
"Hey mom? Can I go to the movies?" Gohan asked walking in the kitchen. Chichi was washing dishes.
"With who?" she asked turning around.
"Erasa, Sharpner…"
"Is that all?"
"No, I think Videl might go," he said blushing.
"Well, if Videl is going then of course you can go Gohan," Chichi said with hearts in her eyes.
"Thanks mom."
"What time?"
"Umm… I have to be there before 6:30."
"What movie are you seeing?"
"Umm… I don't know Erasa wouldn't tell me."
"Oh okay then, you better go do your homework."
"Okay mom," Gohan said heading to his room.
When it was 6:00 Chichi walked into Goten and Gohan's room. Gohan was getting ready for the movies," Hurry up Gohan it takes you about fifteen minutes to get to the city."
"I'm almost done Mom," he said finishing up. He walked out of his room. Chichi was at the door waiting for him. He gave her a kiss on the cheek and jumped into the air. When he was over the city he saw Videl flying on her way there too he snuck up to her and yelled, "Hey Videl!"
Videl nearly fell out of the air, "Gohan! Don't do that," she said punching him in the arm.
"Ow," he laughed, "So what's up?"
"Well, it looks like we're up," she said looking down.
"I knew that. Hey do you know what movie we're going to see?"
"Nope, Erasa didn't tell me. She just said to meet her in front of the movie theater before 6:30."
"Yeah me too."
"Do you even know where the theater is?"
"Of course I do! I'm not that new to the city plus I fly over it on the way to school and when I'm flying around as Saiyaman."
"Good," she laughed, "By the way, how come you aren't Saiyaman?"
Gohan shrugged, "I guess 'cause it's dark out, why?"
"I was just wondering."
"There it is, "Gohan said pointing, "we'd better land and walk the rest of the way."
"How can you see it? It's dark."
"I can see pretty well in the dark and long distances, come on," he said and landed. A couple of seconds later Videl landed next to him, "ready?"
"Yep," she said heading down the street. A gust of wind blew and Videl shivered. Gohan pulled his jacket off and put it around Videl, "Thanks," she said grabbing his arm.
"No problem," he said blushing.
"Hey guys! You made it! Great!" Erasa said when they arrived.
"Hmph," Sharpner said when he saw Videl clinging to Gohan's arm.
"Are you two ready? I already bought the tickets!" she said waving them around, "Come on."
"What movie are we going to see?"
"The reenactment of the Cell Games 2," Erasa replied.
Videl and Gohan's eyes widened, "Why?" Videl asked.
"Because I know that both of you missed the first movie at the tournament. Both of you had to go through the qualifying tests," Erasa winked.
"I wasn't in it! I was with my mother waiting to watch my dad fight! Honestly!"
"That's true! I was with Saiyaman not Gohan!" Videl said.
"Gohan is Saiyaman!" said Erasa.
"Yeah, we saw him take off his glasses and everything!" Sharpner said.
"Why can't you two believe me?" Gohan asked.
"Let's just go before we miss the show," Videl said pulling Gohan inside.
The usher collected their tickets and said, "Third theater on your left."
Gohan and Videl was walking behind Erasa and Sharpner talking, "This is gonna be an interesting movie, Gohan sighed.
"Yeah. I hope they didn't make you, your friends and your dad weaker than my dad."
"They probably will."
"Yeah you're right, this movie's going to be embarrassing for both of us."
"Yep."
"Hey you two! Come on hurry up!"

"Can I have three tickets, one adult and two children for the Reenactment of the Cell Games Version two at 6:30," Trunks said holding out the money. Vegeta had given him the money for him, Trunks and Goten.
Vegeta was in a very bad mood right now worse than usual. Trunks and Goten were running around the house making a lot of racket so Bulma told Vegeta to take them somewhere.
"Where?" he had asked her.
"I don't know. Take them to the movies. And let them pick which one."
"What?!"
"Go!" Bulma said pointing.
"Fine!"
Trunks got the tickets and said, "Yay! Come on Goten!"
Vegeta followed the kids. Trunks handed the tickets to the usher, "Third theater on your left," he said handing Trunks the ticket stubs.
"Thank you!"
They walked into the theater and the place was full except for three seats in the very back. "Dad mom said not to hurt anyone," Trunks said when he saw Vegeta ready to punch someone to get a good seat. Vegeta just growled and sat down.
________________
Gohan or his friends didn't see the three people who just entered. The theater got dark and started showing the previews. The first preview was about horses talking and trying to save their home. The second movie was about Hercule saving the world again. The third movie was The Great Saiyaman. They saw Saiyaman doing his dance then catching two people who were shooting at a lady. Then the screen flashed Coming soon to a theater near you.
________________
Goten squealed, "I wanna see it! I wanna see it!"
"Shut up you baka!" Vegeta growled.
________________
"That sounded like Vegeta!" Gohan whispered.
"Why would Vegeta be at a theater?" Videl said.
"Yeah you're probably right," he said calming down.
*~movie~*
"Ha ha I shall defeat you," Cell said pointing at Goku.
"No you evil monster you will not defeat me."
"Ha ha yes I will because I have tricks up my sleeves."
"Let's fight," Goku said jumping into the air.
*~real life~*
Gohan was speechless until he saw Goku jump in the air and he noticed the strings attached to him and Cell. Gohan was trying to hold in his laughter. He looked at Videl and he noticed that she was too. Erasa looked at then, "Shh what's so funny?"
"The movie it's hilarious!" Videl whispered.
"Well, don't be so loud."
*~movie~*
"You beat me I give up," Goku said. He walked over to a kid and put a hand on his shoulder. The kid had golden hair and blue-green eyes, "now it's my son's turn."
*~real life~*
"This is not going to be pretty," Gohan said.
"Awww! How cute! Look at the kid!" Erasa whispered to Videl.
Gohan heard her say that and he coughed. "Yeah he is really cute," Videl said elbowing Gohan. Gohan rubbed his arm and glared at Videl.
"And that other guy with shoulder length purple hair is cute too I wonder how old he was," Erasa continued.
"Umm… he looks about he was nineteen or twenty," Gohan answered right away.
"He's about our age," Erasa said.
"That was seven years ago now he would be twenty seven," Gohan said with sadness in his voice. He misses his friend Trunks again.
"Hmm? Is something wrong Gohan?" Videl asked.
"I'll tell you later."
*~movie~*
Cell punched Gohan and knocked him out, "ha ha I have defeated you. Cell pressed a button and a bomb exploded where the Z fighters were standing. "Ha ha ha I have defeated you all ha ha ha ha."
"Wait you haven't beaten me!" Hercule said coming out from behind a cloud of dust.
"Here have a fireball," Cell said stepping on another button and another cloud of dust appeared.
Hercule appeared behind Cell, "Your useless tricks are stupid and useless."
"Here take my Monster Ray."
Two spears appeared out of the fighting ring, "You missed me ha ha."
"Oh now I am scared, will you please forgive me?" Cell said while he was on his knees.
"NO you are evil and do not want to change," Hercule said. Then he kicked Cell and Cell flew and his hit a rock.
"Oh now I have lost," he said and blew up.
"Gee Hercule's great," Goku said.
"I wish I were him," Vegeta said. They started showing the credits.
*~real life~*
Two seconds later the screen blew up. Most of the people screamed and ran out of the theater. Videl turned to Erasa and Sharpner and said, "Go we'll meet you two outside by the benches."
"What about you two?" Erasa asked.
"We'll probably be separated anyways so we'll meet you two over there. Don't worry we'll be fine."
Gohan turned around and he saw what he thought he would see, Vegeta standing with his hand pointing at the screen. "Vegeta why did you have to go and do that?" he yelled over the screams. Gohan pulled Videl up the steps to where Vegeta, Goten and Trunks were. "Vegeta why are you here and why did you just do that?"
"Because that movie is worse than the first one!" he yelled.
"Well then why are you here?!" Gohan yelled.
"That woman wanted those two rats out of the house so she forced me to take them to the movies and they picked this one! Is that good enough?!"
"Yeah I can see Bulma forcing you to come here."
"Good now let's go brats!" Vegeta said storming out.
"Yes sir!" they said following.
"Now that's settled I think we should go find Erasa and Sharpner," Gohan said.
They caught up to Vegeta, Goten and Trunks and Gohan asked, "Hey Goten? Can I use flying Nimbus tonight? I don't feel like flying."
"Sure Gohan."
"Thanks squirt," Gohan said. Vegeta Goten and Trunks headed around the building and Gohan and Videl headed straight to where Erasa and Sharpner were waiting.
"Are you guys okay?" Erasa asked.
"Yeah we're fine Erasa don't worry. I need to call my ride. Flying Nimbus!" he called with his hands cupped around his mouth. Nimbus flew down and stopped in front of Gohan.
"Do you want a ride home Videl?"
"Is it safe?" she asked.
"Sure it is. My dad rode Nimbus since he was five then he gave it to me. Then I gave Nimbus to Goten a while ago I'm just borrowing it tonight."
"I want to ride it," Sharpner said jumping on Nimbus. He fell right through it, "How can this be safe if you can't even stay on top of it?" he said getting up and rubbing his backside.
"Nimbus can be used as a test as well as a ride."
"a test how?" Erasa asked.
"Okay then let's see you get on it," Sharpner said.
"Sure," Gohan said and he jumped on Nimbus, "How 'bout a lap around the building Nimbus?" Nimbus took off and a little while later came back and hovered in front of them, "Come on Videl," Gohan said holding out his hand Videl took his hand and she stepped up on Nimbus.
"What?!" Sharpner growled.
"Ready?" Gohan asked.
"Yep good bye Erasa and Sharpner!" Videl said waving as Nimbus took off. "So Gohan during the movie how come you seemed sad?"
"Yeah I was."
"Why?"
"Because, do you remember Erasa talking about the purple haired teenager? He's one of my best friends, his name is Trunks."
"Was Goten's friend, Trunks named after him or something?"
"No he is Goten's friend Trunks just at age twenty."
"Where is he?"
"He's in his own time, you see he came from the future and if it weren't for him Vegeta, Chaoutzu, Tien, Krillin, Piccolo, and I wouldn't be here we would all be dead forever."
"What?!"
"Yes. Do you remember 18? Krillin's wife?"
"Yeah. She's so cool."
"Well in Trunks' time 18 and her twin brother 17, were terrorizing the planet. She's not terrorizing the planet in our time because I saved here and she married Krillin."
"Oh so what you're saying is you miss the Trunks from the future and you want to see him again right?"
"Yep. There's your house," Gohan said Nimbus landed and Videl got off.
"Bye Gohan! Thanks for the ride!" she said waving as Gohan took off. Videl waited until Gohan and Nimbus' golden trail disappeared into the darkness.
AN- I hope you liked it! The next chapter is coming soon. It's called A Friend Returns. Can you guess who?
