*The Mystery *
Disclaimer: I DO NOT OWN DBZ!! I REAALLLLYYYY WAAAANNNTT TOOOO THOUGH!! Ok anyhoo, This story takes place between the 7-year period. Gohan is 15 and Goten is 4. ChiChi is well... uh... how old is ChiChi?
BOOM!
"What the?" Gohan yelled as he looked out his window into the night sky. Am I dreaming? Did nobody else hear that? Or feel that ki? Gohan thought to himself. He looked at his brother Goten who was sleeping peacefully, like nothing happened. "I must be dreaming." Gohan whispered falling back into his pillow.
"What was that?" Gohan thought out loud in his room.
"What was what?" giggled a small voice underneath him.
"AHH! Goten what are you doing under my chair?!"
"Looking...."
"FOR WHAT?!"
"Dunno..."
"ARGH! GOTEN!! Just leave 'k?"
"Sheesh, just because-" Gohan didn't catch the last part because his 4 year old brother left the room. Gohan turned back to his blank notebook and began to sketch his best friend Piccolo. He laughed at his drawing because Piccolo's head looked like a peanut.
"GOHAN! COULD YOU COME HERE PLEASE?!" his mother screeched.
"YEAH! HANG ON!" he called back shutting his notebook and going into the kitchen.
"What do you need mom?"
"Can you go out and get some firewood?"
"Sure, while I'm out there, can I train for the Tenkaichi Budoukai?"
"Hai, just don't be out too late."
Yes, Gohan thought, now I can test out my new technique!
Gohan raced out the door to find some good firewood. He was done with getting firewood in about five minutes. When he was done, he dashed to his favorite training spot. When he arrived, he sighed and said, "Ah, nothing but peace, quiet, and-"
"ME!"
Gohan spun around to see his little brother riding Kinto'un.[1]
"Heh, heh," Goten laughed with a huge smile on his face.
"GOTEN! Get out of here!!"
"Why?"
" 'Cause I'm going to train!"
"FINE, but I'm going to raid your room as usual."
"Fine."
"M'k, BYE GOHAN!"
Phew, finally the squirt's gone!
Gohan turned SS and began to train.
Ugh, Mom'll freak if I come into the house all sweaty and smelly. Better go swimming and catch a fish for dinner.
With that in his mind, Gohan dashed to the nearest stream. "Ah, I can't wait!" he jumped right in and started exploring underwater. [2] While he was swimming, he was thinking of the previous night's event. Gohan closed his eyes and when he opened them he saw another pair right in front of him.
"BLAHHH!" Gohan cried underwater.
"GACK!" he gasped realizing he swallowed water.
He swam to the surface pulling up the thing with eyes with him. Once Gohan reached the surface, he bellowed at the thing with the eyes.
"GOTEN! I thought I told you to go home!! You scared me HALF TO DEATH!!!" [3]
"Sorry Gohan, mom told me to tell you to catch a fish for dinner!"
"Ok! I will then!"
"Oh, uh, Gohan?"
"What?!"
"Did I scare you half to death this morning?"
"Yes... why?"
"Well, if I scared you half to death this morning and half to death right now, wouldn't you be dead?" Goten laughed.
"GOTEN!!!" Gohan yelled dunking his younger brother underwater.
SPLOOSH! Goten popped back out and flew away on Kinto'un yelling "I'M TELLING MOM!!!"
"Man, Goten can get SO annoying!"
Gohan got out of the water and began walking along the banks looking for a fish.
"AHA! I've got you!" Gohan cried, diving into the water after a giant fish.
"YES! I hit the jackpot!" Gohan exclaimed hauling a giant fish to the shore.
"Phew! Time for a break!" Gohan sighed plopping down next to his precious fish.
"Hmmm?" Gohan awoke to the sound of splashing. What's that noise? Gohan thought, walking down the bank. Gohan strained to hear, but the splashing had stopped. Gohan kept walking, looking for whatever caused the splashing.
"WHOA!" Gohan yelled.
Because on the other bank was a female body halfway out of the water. Gohan leaped over the stream and instantly checked the pulse.
"Good, it's still there."
Gohan snatched up the teen and his fish and flew back home at top speed.
"MOM! GOHAN DUNKED ME!" Goten yelled barging into the house.
"And you didn't do anything to provoke him?"
"Nope, all I did was kill him." "NANI?!?!" ChiChi screamed.
Goten ran out of the room in hysterics.
ChiChi stared at her second born as he ran out of the kitchen.
"He better not have done anything too stupid," ChiChi sighed, turning back to her soup for that night's dinner. Speaking of dinner... Where's Gohan? He should be home by now... hmmm. ChiChi thought to herself.
"MOM!!" Goten yelled.
Now what? "What's wrong?" she called back.
"GOHAN'S COMIN' HOME!! I CAN SEE HIM. HE'S CARRYING TWO BIG FISHIES!!"
ChiChi turned and looked out the window. She certainly could tell one was a fish but the other "fish" was a... what was it?
"NANI?! THAT'S A HUMAN!" she gasped running outside yelling, "GOHAN?? WHO IS THAT?!?!?!"
Gohan landed while explaining to his fear-stricken mother what had happened down by the stream.
"Well don't just leave her outside! Give her to me, I'll give her a bath, and put her in my room!" ChiChi snatched the body from Gohan's arms and ran inside.
"Uh..." Gohan stood there in awe.
"OOOOOOO, Gohan's in trouble!!!" Goten yelled from right next to him.
"NANI?! Oh, Goten, it's just you. You scared me half to death!"
"So does that mean-"
"Not another word squirt." Gohan growled, putting a hand over his little brother's mouth.
