Hey guys! I finally decided to write another story! I have also decided to write it a little differently than I normally do because I'm hoping to make it as good as possible. I don't really have anything else to say so I'm just gonna get on with the story!
A/N) This story is inspired by the fanfic Under The Radar by Hipstergecko. I highly recommend reading, it's an amazing story that has (in my opinion) probably the best ending that it could possibly have.
Disclaimer: I do not own Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z, Dragon Ball GT, Dragon Ball Super, or any of it's characters.
Gohan was sitting in the back of the class with his new friends Erasa, Sharpner, and Videl. They all sat in their required foreign language class, English. He had to bite back a small chuckle when he noticed Erasa trying to pass a note to Videl, who kept swiping at her hand indicating that she was trying to focus on the teachers 'lecture'.
Gohan looked up at the front of the room but when he realized the teacher was rambling on about things he learned back when he was 8 years old, he decided to take advantage of this moment and just relaxed. He never really got to relax anymore since he has to help take care if his 7 year old brother, study, train, and run constant errands for his mother. He leaned back on the rear legs of his chair and closed his eyes. He could have honestly fell asleep and probably would have, hadn't it been for the blonde girl next to him to tap him on the shoulder.
He turned and looked at her. "Do you understand any of this?" She questioned him quietly, so as not to alert the teacher that they were talking.
Gohan chuckled a little, completely oblivious to the fact that this class was supposed to be hard. "Yeah, this is stuff that I learned about..I don't know, maybe 9 or 10 years ago." He whispered back to her. Videl gave him a small glare when he said that, making it obvious that she heard and was going to try and use that against him. He sighed then shook his head. 'Man, she is never gonna stop questioning me, will she?' He questioned himself in his thoughts, even if he knew the answer.
That's when Gohan finally realized that Erasa was staring at him, amazed that he's known this stuff for so long. Before she could ask he blurted out, a little too loud, "My mom's a little crazy when it comes to my studies."
"Excuse me Mr. Son, if you would be so kind as to let me finish my lecture then it would be highly appreciated. Thank you." Mrs. Johnson interrupted the teens little conversation, ending it for the rest of the period.
For the rest of the period Gohan sat silently, praying to Dende that it end sooner. When the bell finally rung he let out a long sigh of relief and stood up. He quickly gathered his things and headed to his locker
At his locker, he put in the lock combination and opened it the full way. He put his books inside and grabbed his lunch capsule. He was about to leave when he sensed an angry raven haired girl coming up to him. He turned around just in time to see her slam her hand into the locker next to him, putting her nose so close to his that they were almost touching. Her arm blocked his only way out since his locker was still open and she was in front of him.
"H-hey Videl, how uh.. how's it hangin'?" Gohan asked nervously, reaching up and scratching the back of his head, like usual.
"Don't play games with me Gohan, you know what I want."
"I-I don't know w-what you're talking about." He finished with an awkward a laugh.
She let out a little growl and steped back slightly, leaving her arm firmly in place. "How do you get to school everyday?"
"Um...d-didn't we cover this before?"
"No. I asked but you never answered. So tell me, how is it that you get to school everyday?"
"Um..shouldn't we get to lunch? I'm pretty sure it's about to start."
"Just answer the damn question Gohan."
"Fine. I..I fly."
Videl got up close to him again and didn't move when the bell rung. "That's funny. The only way a person could fly here from that far away is with a jetcopter. Jetcopters aren't cheap and yesterday you said your family is always a little tight on budget. Talk." She commanded him, emphasizing it by poking him in the chest. 'Wow, his chest was surprisingly hard for a nerd..I'll add that to the list.' She thought to herself and tried to keep from getting a blush.
(First change from Under The Radar that'll affect the story later on coming up.) His shoulders sagged in defeat. "I..I...I can explain."
"Alright, start explaining!" She was starting to get annoyed. 'So he admits that he's hiding something.'
"I can't do it right here. I promise that if you don't tell anyone or use it against me then I'll let you in on some things jus-" Videl cut him off.
"Fine, I'll just eat lunch with you up on the roof today. That's where you go isn't it?"
"Um..yea. How'd you know?"
"Let's just say I know what it's like to want to be alone sometimes."
"O-okay..well let's get up to the roof then. I can just let you have some of my lunch, I have more than enough."
Her arm finally dropped to her side and she she stormed away towards the stairway to the roof, not saying a word. Gohan followed her up to the roof.
When he was there he clicked the button on his capsule and threw it. It exploded and piles of containers full of food appeared. Videl looked at the food, amazed, then up at Gohan, who was obviously embarrassed.
Erasa and Sharpner sat at their usual table and looked around. They didn't see Videl anywhere and were a little concerned.
After a few minutes Erasa spoke up. "Where do you think Videl is?"
"She's probably either questioning Brains again or the police chief called her."
"Yea, you're probably right." She nodded and starting eating the 'food' the school have her.
Gohan and Videl sat across from eachother and Gohan started digging in. Videl on the other hand was a bit thrown off by how fast he was eating. 'So he eats like this and yet he has a chest like his..add that to the list too.' She thought to herself again.
"So..are you going to tell me how you get to school everyday yet?" Videl was getting a little impatient.
Gohan somehow manages to swallow his large bite of food. "Oh yeah, sorry. I'm just really hungry." He laughed and scratched the back of his head again.
She had to hold back a giggle at the fact that he used the word 'little'. "Yes, I can see that."
"Alright..do you swear to never tell anyone what I'm about to say?"
"That depends. Is what you're about to say any danger to the city?"
"I swear that it will not harm the city in any way."
"Then I won't say anything about it unless I have to."
"...Good enough, I guess. Now just..keep an open mind and..don't freak out."
"What do you mean by that?"
He didn't answer. He was focusing his ki without making a huge ball which for some reason was a little hard to do. After a few seconds a ball of light appeared between his open hands.
Videl's eyes widened to the size of saucers. She leaned in to look closer at it. It was almost blindingly bright and yet, at the same time, it was soothing and soft. She felt a slight heat coming off of it and reached up to touch it with her hands.
Gohan let the energy go and it disappeared. Videl was shocked and tipped over, landing on top of him. She looked up at him and blushed a bright red. 'Alright scratch the chest thing, he's got to be ripped.' She jumped up off of him and dusted herself off.
She cleared her the ought and finally spoke up. "H-how did you do that?" 'I know my dad said that stuff was all a trick but..it seemed so real!'
"I-it's ki." His face was just about as red as a fire truck. She was a little confused as to why he was so embarrassed until she noticed that something other than his upper body was hard as a rock. Her face instantly went back to looking like a tomato.
She cleared her throat again. "Um..my dad always said people making light like that were just tricks-" This time Gohan cut her off.
"This is not a trick." He made another, far bigger and brighter ball of energy. "This is a real form of martial arts that is used all around the univer- world." He quickly corrected himself, but not quick enough. 'He was definitely going to say something other than around the world.'
"Alright smarty-pants, if it's not a trick then how come only the tricksters at the cell games could use them." She crossed he arms over her chest and smirked.
"Those were NOT tricks. Like I said before, this is a real form of martial arts. Do you not see the ball of light in my hand?!" He thruster his hand closer to her. Not touching her with it but enough that she could feel the power radiating off of it.
"Okay, if it's a real form of martial arts, teach me." She dared him to say anything. 'Lets see what you say to THAT.' She told herself in her head.
"Fine! If it'll make you believe me then I'll teach you!"
"Wait..really?" She was shocked, almost as much as he was. 'Well that went differently than I hoped.' They thought simultaneously.
Well guys that's chapter 1. Remember if you think this was even remotely good then you should go read Under The Radar by Hipstergecko! If you'd like to read more then please review and tell me what to improve on! Until next time..BYE!
