Dragon ball Z – The History of Gohan
Chapter One: Seven Years Since that Event! From Today I'm a High School Student!
"You put up a good fight Gohan, I'm proud of you. Take care of your mother for me. She needs you.
Tell her thatI had to do this, Gohan. Goodbye my son."
These were Goku's last words to his son. These are the words Gohan would never forget.
The words that made him into a hero.
These words changed him. He no longer acted like the perfect child Chi-Chi had before. He trained regardless of there being a challenge or not. He knew in his heart that his father wasn't coming back, and he wanted to do everything he could to become not just a hero, but to become the hero that his father had been.
Before Trunks left to return to his future, Gohan asked him about how HIS Gohan had acted, and just how strong he was. After all, the job of being earth's hero was now upon him.
For the years that followed, Gohan became strong. Okay, he wasn't as strong as his alternate future self, but he was half his age, and he was doing well. That was until School.
Chi-Chi had been trying to get him into special schools all of his childhood, and had finally managed it. She was overjoyed that Gohan was going here (After all, this was the same school that martial arts champion Mr.Satan's daughter Videl went to, so it HAD to be good), but sadly Gohan didn't see it in the same light. He had to cut down on his training, and that just wasn't an option.
It was his first day. He dreaded going, but he knew he had no choice. He leapt on the Kinto-un and flew to the City.
After a while he reached the outskirts of Satan City. He landed and looked up at the giant sign showing Mr.Satan in his victory pose. He sighed. All of this praise and glory because they thought HE was the one to kill Cell all those years ago. All that glory, all that praise, and Gohan was the one who earned it ... but no one even knew Gohan's name.
He looked at his watch. Class was starting already, and he ran through the streets. Sure, he didn't want to go to class, but if he had to, he didn't want to be late either.
He was running at top speed, but stopped. He stood a small distance from a bank. Something was wrong. He went closer as a number of thugs with guns ran out. The bank was being robbed.
Gohan stepped towards them "YOU THERE! What do you think you're doing?"
The lead thug stepped forward and grinned "now there lad, id move if I were you. Wouldn't want to get yourself hurt now would ya?"
Gohan sighed and powered himself up to Super Saiya-jin level, and glared at them
"You have two choices. Drop all the money you stole and leave, or die!"
The thugs jumped back in terror "H-He's a freak boy! KILL HIM!" and with that, they all fired their guns madly at him, with Gohan simple making some hand gestures in front of his face.
Before long the guns were out, but Gohan still stood unharmed. He opened his hand, and a mass of crushed bullets fell to the floor
"Wrong choice!"
The crooks screamed in terror and ran to their truck, dropping everything
"They won't get away from me that easily!" Gohan thought, and with one focussed Ki blast, he destroyed it.
As a crowd started to amass at the scene, he ran to a small back alley, and reverted to normal
As he went back to the streets, a black haired girl leapt right in front of him
"Were you here? Did you see that? What happened?"
Gohan stepped back cautiously, unsure of what to say, and then just ran away. Back at the scene, she went to another person, who told her the hero had been wearing the same school badge as her. She was curious, and she knew that boy had something to do with it.
At class, Gohan sat down, only ten minutes late. Already, news of his victory over the robbers had spread. The kids in class were calling him the "Golden Warrior". He sighed. He had to do something about this. After all, how would these kids react if they found out their classmate was half alien, had strength enough to destroy entire buildings, and had helped save the world from danger numerous times.
He sat there, just listening, noticing the black haired girl looking up at him, trying to be inconspicuous.
"Don't bother, she's way out of YOUR league, kid" a guy said from next to him
"er ... what do you mean?" Gohan asked, nervously
"I've seen the way you look at her. That's Videl, Mr. Satan's Daughter. There's no WAY shed go out with you!"
Gohan smiled sheepishly and went back to listening. So that's who she was, and more importantly, she was looking at him, but not in the sort of way that kid thought. Could she know? It was impossible, but he had to do something about it.
"You ... Gohan isn't it? Would you kindly translate this line of text into Japanese from English for us"
Gohan stood to read ... and realised what it was. The story of Mr. Satan's Valliant victory over the evil monster Cell. He read it, all the while hating it.
After school, he went out the front gate
"You there!" Videl shouted "I WANT A WORD WITH YOU!"
Gohan turned and ran "MAYBE LATER!"
He ran as far as he could until he knew he wasn't being watched, and flew. He needed to find a way to keep his identity hidden.
He needed Bulma!
