Chapter 1: Gohans Nightmares

7 years have passed since the destruction of Cell; the earth has been in peace for 7 whole years. The years of nightmare and horror have finally seemed to pass for most of the people of earth except for the one who destroyed the evil creature Cell. Gohan once the young 10-year-old boy who defeated the monster is now 17-year-old teenager with the responsibilities of the man of the house at such an early stage but even though he hides it, he still dreams of the terror Cell brought to Earth but most importantly his failure to stop the power he obtained from going to his head. His lack of experience with the amount of power he held cost him the most important thing he ever knew, his fath…

"Gohan dear, its time to get up, you have your first day of school today" Chi Chi's voice bellowed through the house. Upstairs in the third room on the left from the stairs, lay a 6'2 demi-Saiyan, sprawled out across the bed on his back with his right leg hanging over the edge of the bed and the blanket tucked under the mattress half way across his body, slept young Gohan.

Slowly turning over to face the wall, Gohan let out a yawn as the sunlight spiked through the yellow curtains hitting his muscular back.
"Big bro, mama said its time to get up" chimed the cheerful Goten walking into his older brothers room. "Okay squirt, im getting up" a tired Gohan slowly replied while sitting up.
Gohan slowly fell out of bed, slamming his knee threw the wood based floor. The nightmares had been getting worse in the last 3 months, he couldn't understand why but they were beginning to feel more real than ever. It had shaken Gohan immensely and his mother had started to notice the change in him as well.

Gohan strolled downstairs fully fresh and awakened, in an excited mood awaiting his trip to his new school and maybe a new life. He was met half way by an extremely excited Goten running down at the first sniff of food. Gohan laughed at his young brothers emphysemas when it came to food, he really was the next Goku, maybe not as powerful but the same looks with his spiky hair and the cute clueless face and the appetite to match, he truly was Son Goku in disguise.

The faint sound of his mothers voice brought Gohan back into reality.
"Huh, did you say something mam" Gohan asked while taking a seat in front of the food his mother has prepared. The table had been changed since the last time Gohan and Goku had broke it (Gohans birthday I think it was), It was now 3 inches thick solid titanium with criss-cross legs, bolted in the floor. The whole table was spy blue with touches of cloudy white but the best bit was the neatly illustrated drawing of the Son family on the rounded surface. It may have been made from dull titanium but you couldn't tell what it was it was made of, because of the beautiful decoration it had been giving.
"I asked if you were alright Gohan" Chi-Chi repeated, "you look paler than usual and you haven't been sleeping well lately" she continued, "I'm just worried about you Gohan" went while watching Gohan slowly eat his food. "Your not eating right either, your eating like a normal human and I don't care how well I brought you up, you always eat like a saiyan" Chi-Chi finished picking up Gotens plates.
"Im fine mother, just a couple of nightmares" Gohan replied through a mouth full of food. Chi-Chi gave him a worried expression but left it there, {he is half saiyan and a super saiyan; he can look after himself} she thought turning to finish collecting the dishes.

Gohan quickly got up from his seat and headed to his room to collect his books before he left for his first day of school.
