This is my first fanfic, after reading many on this site. Please don't flame, and for now, just review and give advice, or encouragement. I hope this fic goes on for 20-30 chapters, but I'm starting out on my smartphone, so excuse any short chapters.

IMPORTANT A/N:

1: Videl is a Saiyan. Will be explained later in the story.
2:Hercule knows about Videl's heritage, but decides not to tell her about it until she would either be ready, or found out. It's not that he he doesn't care, its that he want's her to live as normal a life as possible, so she wouldn't concider herself a freak.

3: Hercule does know about ki, but never figured out how to use it. Videl know what it is too, but isn't an expert at it, as she never mentioned it to her father.

Now, ON WITH THE FIC.

Disclaimer: I do not own Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z, or Dragon Ball GT, but I do own a copy of Raging Blast 2, and Battle of Z, if that counts for anything.

1: Prologe

GOHAN POV

Nervousness.

That is all he felt today.

Today was the day of the Cell Ganes.

Today was the day the earth would be saved, or destroyed.

As Gohan got out of bed, he began to wonder If they would even survive the day. After all, Cell was the biggest threat the earth has ever seen, and this day could be its last.

As his groggy body took him to his restroom, he began to wonder how this day would turn down, he remembered how strong Cell's ki was at what he assumed was half-way. His dad, Goku Son, the savior of earth, has acted as if he wouldn't be able to defeat him, but reassured everyone that Cell would be defeated by the end of today.

As he turned on the shower to a fairly warm temperature to help relax, he unwrapped the furry appendage called a tail from his waist, and proceded to take a shower.

He couln't help but remember the shock the day before, when his tail re-grew deciding to keep it after remembering a little fact that Vegeta mentioned, the fact that with their tails, Saiyans were stronger than without it.

As he dried off and got his piccolo-inspired gi ready to wear, he smelled the intoxicating aroma of his mother, Chi Chi Son's, cooking.

After a mountain of food, he hugged and kissed his mom goodbye, who was in tears over her fear of him not returning, before leaving with his dad to confront Cell.

Despite his nervousness, he couldn't help but feel as if by the end of today, everything would be ok, and better than ever.

VIDEL POV

Excitement.

All she felt was excitement.

Videl woke up in her bed, ready to go to the Cell Games. As she took a shower, Videl went over her plan for the day.

She would sneak onto her father, Mark (Hercule to everybody else) Satan's yellow jetcopter, and hide behind some boulders, to watch the Cell Games.

She knew, of course, that her papa would never allow her to go, so she stressed that she would watch the Cell Games from home.

Wrapping her furry brown tail around her waist, She dressed into her usual training clothes, which consisted of a slightly over-sized white t-shirt, and black spandex shorts.

She knew she was diffirent from other people, mainly because whenever she went out in public, her papa would tell her to hide her tail under her clothes, or disguise it as a belt. Her dad never talked about her mom, other than the fact that Videl looked and acted like her. He even said that she had a tail, too. Whenever she asked about her mom, she would get the same answer: "She came from a place very, very far away, saying that she needed to get away from someone who was very, very bad."

As she went to devour her enourmous breakfast, another trait she got from her mom, she learned, she heard her dad warming up for later today.

After breakfast, Videl waited inside the storage compartment of his jetcopter, silently praying that her papa wouldn't bring anything else other than his championship belt. She hated how he acted in front of the camera and in public, but loved how he was at home.

Hoping that he wouldn't call Erasa to comfirm that she was there watching the Cell Games, she was relieved when she saw him exiting their comfortable two story, four bedroom house. After his win in the budokai tenkaichi, or World Martial Arts Tournament, he bought them a house larger than their old one story, two bedroom house that was coming apart.

Relieved and exited that he didn't call Erasa or bring anything else than the damn belt, she felt the jetcopter vibrate as it got ready for takeoff. She couldn't help but feel that today was going to be a day she would remember.
