The Night and the Light
Author's Notes: I've had this idea for quite awhile now, but never really had time to type it up. Now, I do have time, and I've posted this up for all of you to read! Basically, if you like Gohan/Videl stories (my favorite DBZ couple!), this story is for you! Hope you all enjoy it! Oh, and I do not own DBZ (although it would be nice.). I also do not own the supernatural idea of vampires and witches! Now, on with the story!
"Bye Mom! Bye Goten!" Gohan waved to his mother and little brother. His mysterious dark eyes stared back at his family members. Floating 30 feet above them, his spiked black hair swayed in the early morning's gusts. His normal clothes consisted of slacks, a white shirt, and a black vest. The material object that stood out of his other pieces of clothing was an orange star representing the high school he was attending.
"Bye honey! Have a good time at school! I want you to make a lot of friends! Ok?" Chichi asked her son. She almost became depressed at the thought of her only son's companions were Goten and Goku's friends. Although she knew the reason why Gohan's friendship was limited, she desired to see her oldest son having fun with others. 'And maybe he could finally get a girlfriend! Then I could begin plans for the wedding! Grandchildren, here I come!' she smiled at the thought.
"Ok Mom! Bye you guys!" Gohan answered his mother's question. He turned his attention to the sky, and whisked off at incredible speeds that were unseen by the human eye.
"Hey Mom! Can I go back to sleep now?" Goten asked. He yawned loudly, indicating his tiredness. Scratching his head, he awaited his mother's answer. After a couple of minutes of waiting, he turned to discover Chichi daydreaming. 'Not again! When will Mom ever learn? Gohan doesn't intend to marry someone and have kids already!' Goten thought irritatingly.
"Um Mom! Earth to Mom!" The little boy attempted to snap his mother out of daydreaming. He tugged at her morning robe, but came to no avail. He jumped around hoping to catch her attention, but still Chichi stared at the sky with an expression of a drunken addict falling in love for the first time.
'It's no use! I guess she'll snap out of it in a few hours.' Goten thought as he raced back into the house to catch some more hours of shuteye.
"AHH! They're getting away!" the obese banker screamed. Three thieves smiled at the success of escaping with over 20 bags of money. One appeared muscular with an advantage of height. Another looked short and cubby around the waist, while the third member of the trio was thin and medium height between his two comrades.
"I need back up!" one of the police officers demanded over his communicator. Officers of Satan City were attempting to surround the criminals. Unfortunately, the thieves did not steal money from the bank unprepared. All three carried guns to fire back at the officers, and the trio also threw several sharp objects such as knives.
"This will be an easy job! These stupid cops will never catch us!" the short, overweight man exclaimed in victory.
Gohan began to rethink his past as he flew toward his highs school. He always lived out in the mountainous country area. As a child, wildlife of different species such as blue jays, chipmunks, deer, and white rabbits greeted him on the days he was allowed by his strict mother to play outside. The animals would enjoy his company as the group would fly together, have swimming races, and reward themselves with the ripe, juicy fruit that the various trees provided. However, his father disapproved of his friendship with the creatures of the forest.
"They are primitive creatures who will never understand you, Gohan. Believe me, it's best to stay away from them." Goku advised his son one night. Gohan's father was a mysterious figure. Although the boy knew his father was a strong fighter, there were always unknown facts about his father that were not revealed to him. For instance, the boy wondered why his father was nocturnal, sleeping by day, and active by night. Another was the awkward advice that Goku gave his son about the creatures of the forest. Even with his father's warnings, Gohan always escaped to the forest to play with his little friends.
It was not until he reached the age of 10 that he finally understood his father's warnings. During a dark night where the moon hid behind the oncoming clouds, the innocent boy experienced the worst of nightmares in his young life. Darkness enveloped his small body making the boy grow scared and nervous. Although Gohan had been trained in the martial arts, none of his experience in self-defense could protect him from the inevitable. His physical appearance at first did not morph in any way. Instead, a strange feeling of hunger arose in him. The boy wondered if he should go ask his mother to prepare him a meal, but instead, the darkness presented him something more appetizing. A small squirrel appeared staring at Gohan with innocent beady eyes. The boy smiled at the creature's presence. 'Why was I so scared? Now I have one of my friends with me!' The boy picked up his friend with his trembling fingers. Suddenly, his eyes turned crimson red and his little friend grew frightened by the eye color change. Gohan smiled revealing two small fangs, and bit into the squirrel's neck. The blood was a unique delicacy that he craved more by the drop. He found ecstasy in drinking the animal's red liquid. Finally, Gohan dropped the corpse, and his eyes switched back to his dark eyes. His smile disappeared as he realized the murder he had caused. 'Why did I do that? I killed him! Why? WHY?' he questioned as his cubby cheeks became flooded with tears. He screamed in terror, only to wake up to the face of his father.
"Gohan! It's okay! Everything's going to be all right! I didn't expect this to happen so early, but I know you can't control such a thing." Goku tried to comfort his son. "Dad! What are you talking about?" Gohan asked with his face drenched in tears. "I guess I should explain everything." Goku sighed. A part of him rejoiced that his son was finally maturing, but the other part was in shock and sorrow at the thought of what his son was to become.
'I never would have guessed that I was part vampire! Dad explained it like a it was a type of puberty!' Gohan thought as he desperately tried to forget the isolation from his "friends" he experienced after that incident. The creatures of the forest refused to approach the demi-vampire. Squirrels climbed to the trees in fear. Rabbits ducked into their holes. The deer trotted off in search of a new friend, and the blue jays flew off in terror.
'Now I know what Dad meant.' Gohan cried. His father knew that the wildlife would abandon him the minute his true heritage was discovered. He felt the pain of loss and loneliness for months. Sometimes, he would try to convince the creatures to play with him, but the animals could sense the boy's dark heritage. The wildlife never returned their friendship back to the depressed Gohan. After that incident, his life consisted of studying academics and training to control his powers of his sayian and vampire heritage.
"AHH!! They're getting away!" The teenager snapped out of his deep thoughts at the scream. He scanned the area for the cry for help. He finally spotted the situation of the robbers and police officers below him. 'What's that? You should check it out!' his curiosity begged. He decided to listen to his curiosity, and flew down to the scene of the crime.
"They'll never catch us!" one of the members of the criminal trio exclaimed. Suddenly, a golden haired man knocked him unconscious. "What the hell?" The tallest man of the trio fired off his guns at the mysterious fighter. However, the tallest member of the trio only gasped at the sight of his bullets being deflected off their target. The fighter with the golden hair smiled and kicked the thief in the head. The tall man dropped unconscious to the ground. "I'm getting out of here!" The last thief raced off as quickly as his small legs could run. He continued to sprint until the golden haired fighter appeared in front of him. He punched the robber in the stomach, and flew off.
"Whoa! Hey thanks whoever you are!" one of the police officers yelled at the flying fighter.
"Huh? Who stopped these criminals?" a black haired teenager asked one of the officers.
"Hey Videl! You wouldn't believe it! A guy with gold hair came and apprehended those thieves! It was incredible!" the officer answered.
"Do you know him, Videl? He had an orange star on his vest like yours!" another officer asked.
"I don't know! All of the kids at my school have to wear these things." Videl answered. She stood still, wondering who at her school could have stopped these robbers.
