Prologue, Alcohol and Tears



"VIDEL!" a voice boomed throughout the Satan Mansion. Videl came to the top of the stairs. "Yes, Daddy?" she asked as she started down the stairs. "Get in the Training Room now and set up the equipment, now!" Mr. Satan yelled. "But Daddy I was going to go over to Erasa's house?" Videl said frowning. "I don't care! Get in there now!" Hercule thundered. By this time Videl was at the bottom of the stairs and smell the alcohol on his breath. Videl just stood there as she thought, 'Oh man he's drunk again now he won't listen to anyo-' she was brought back to reality when a hand suddenly came in contact with left the side of her face. She lost her balance and fell back on the hard marble floor. Tears welled up in her eyes as realized her father had hit her and she touched her now red cheek with her finger tips, but winced and pulled them away quickly. "Now get going or be hit again?" Mr. Satan yelled but a little softer so no one would hear the last part. Videl got to her feet as fast as she could and ran to the Training Room tears streaming down her face. Not understanding why her father had hit her.
