Here is just a little teaser of one of the pojects in the pipeline at the moment, i have a couple of other things on a slow burn but with a baby due in october cant say when anything will be finished.
Zangya's crush
Zangya was staring into space her mind swirling with images of that boy, his crazy spiked hair, bulging muscles, intoxicating power and dreamy eyes, yes it was true she had a major crush on Son Gohan never before had she met anyone with such a kind gentle nature capable of such immense destuctive power, she wondered how he contained it all in his small teenage frame, she blushed lightly thinking about it.
"Heads up!"
Someone yelled across the GR mere moments before a Ki infused dodgeball slammed into Zangya's face the force sending her spiralling through the air into the nearest wall with an almighty bang.
"The idea is to dodge the ball wench" Vegeta scoffed at her.
"No really i didnt get that from the name jackass, i just wasnt ready to start thats all."
"I know thats why i threw it" Vegeta creased up laughing.
"Here let me help you up" Gohan's voice was gentle as always, "The gravity is turned up quite high today" he smiled down at Zangya.
"Thanks".
Zangya had no sooner taken Gohan's hand when Vegeta exploded with a golden aura dancing round him, teal eyes fixed on the young half-saiyan he launched across the GR barely visable to the eye, Gohan did not respond more than a slight sideways glance as Vegeta hurtled towards his head.
"lets liven things up a bit boy" Vegeta shot at Gohan.
With under a second to spare a bright white aura erupted around Gohan and with little effort he caught Vegeta's fist and redirected him into the GR floor simultaniously pulling Zangya to her feet.
"Thats enough for today" Gohan chirpped.
As everyone filled out of the GR Vegeta grumbled but knew Gohan was right there was no point incuring the wrath of Bulma, she may not be a saiyan warrior but she certainly knew how to instill terror in both himself and Kakarot. Zangya was still holding on to Gohans hand, even though his aura had faded on leaving the GR she could still feel a warm reasuring presence surrounding him, she wondered if it was his Ki warning Vegeta not to step out of line again, whatever it was Gohan just had the knack of making you feel completely safe and at ease. Just as the group reached the main lobby of Capsule Corp. Goku poped into view with a rather disgruntled looking Chi-Chi clinging to his left arm.
"Son Goku why is it you always drag me around with instant transmission, how about traveling in a little style every now and then, i mean i am a princess afterall!" she yelled in his face, Goku just smilled and rubbed his head as always.
"Hi son, hungry after your workout? race you to the kitchen" Goku shot off whith Gohan hot on his heels.
"Goku all you ever think about is your stomach!" Chi-Chi bellowed after him.
"wow Chi-Chi its been a while since you have pulled the princess card is everything ok?" Bulma asked.
"oh you know Goku, he is completely oblivious and has no concept of social standings or their meaning, i mean his father-in-law is the Ox king."
Goku will never change Chi-Chi, he has always been a mountain boy its all he has known, at least you have Gohan to pick up some of the princely duties."
"WHAT DID YOU SAY" Vegeta came into view dibelief etched on his face.
"ahh Vegeta charming as always" Bulma greeted her husband.
Vegeta adjusted his tone to a more friendly one, "what was that you said about Kakarot and Gohan?"
"well Chi-Chi is the daughter of the Ox king of the Ox Empire, which makes Chi-Chi a princess so by default Goku and Gohan are both princes of the Ox Empire..."
Bulma kept talking but Vegeta had somewhat zoned out and his mind was in overdrive, 'how can this be, Kakarot a prince on this planet and refuses his duties, whereas I a true saiyan prince not recognised at all, and the boy has official engagements, how am I only just finding out about this.'
"Hey Vegeta are you alright, there is a vain in the side of your head that looks loike its going to blow."
"NNNOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
Zangya had been listening across the room intently, 'wow Gohan is a prince too how much more adorable and perfect can he get, guess there is no helping it time to get myself a prince.'
Over the next few days zangya found excuses to stay close to Gohan, she visited the Ox empire when she knew Gohan was on engagements, followed him into the GR when he went to train and even helped out with his post training meal, although Gohan was quite oblivious to how much Zangya was trying to gain his attention it did not go unnoticed by Bulma who found it most entertaining and thought a gentle shove might help Gohan see what was right in front of his face.
"you know Gohan I was thinking, eversince Zangya was braught back from HFIL all she has experienced of earth is Capsule Corp. it might help if she got out to see some of the places of this world so she can get a better understanding and familiarity for her new home."
"Yeah i see what you mean Bulma, I suppose you have an idea of what might help."
"well i thought you could break her in gently and show her some of what nature has to offer on earth, so a nice camping trip in the mountains and forest area should be good."
"hmm yeah that could work, i have the perfect spot, i have been meaning to get back out there myself to see Icarus."
"great so thats settled, i will make arangements to drop you off on the outskirts of the area this weekend, take as long as you want and soak up as much nature as possible." Bulma finished with a wink.
"Thank you Gohan for agreeing to help me with adjusting to this world." Zangya bowed in front of Gohan.
"no problem," Gohan laughed "I love being around nature so this will be like a little holiday for me."
And so as the weekend grew close Gohan packed his camping supplies and a couple of training Gi's while Zangya packed for what looked like a 2 week holiday, much to Bulma's amusement she chuckled as she poped her head into her room to see how she was doing.
"oh dear Zangya how long are you planning on stopping out there?" she asked sarcasticly.
"What do you mean?" zangya looked confused, "Gohan told me to pack the essentials, so this case is my hairdryer brushes and grooming stuff, this one is filled with all of those television things that this planet does and these two are clothes and..."
"ok stop " Bulma interupted, "for starters where do you think you are staying? there are no hotels up there dear you will be sharing a pokey little tent, next how do you expect all that electrical stuff to work thats a no no, and just how many changes of clothes are you planning on making a day?"
"Eermm..."
"Right, you can take one hair brush, a toothbrush and deoderant nothing fancy and i expect you to fit everything else into one holdall and a rucksack, i will be back in 15 mins."
Gohan touched down in the capsule corp. courtyard to spend the night before their flight in the morning, the night air was cool with a light breeze which carried a familiar scent to Gohans nostrils, sweet and floral he recognised it instantly however did not react straight away but walked towards the entrance feeling the presence follow him all the way he made his move, leaving an afterimage near the door he instantly appeared behind his persuer.
"Hey Zangya why are you sneaking around in the bushes."
"Dear god Gohan," Zangya shreaked "you nearly gave me a heart attack, how did you know i was here? am i still not masking my energy properly?"
"No thats much better, actually i smelt your perfume first, its sweet smelling and suits you well but easy to spot."
Zangya blushed lightly, "Do you think so? i make it myself."
Together they made their way into the main building where they were greeted by Bulma who directed Gohan straight to the kitchen where she had a saiyan sized snack waiting for him, while he proceded to inhale the vast amount of food Bulma and Zangya were going through the final plans for the next days trip.
"Ok so it will be an early flight, departing at 5am, lasting for around 3 hours it will drop you on the outskirts of Gohan's forest, there it will be about an hours trek through the forest to where Icarus will be waiting and take you to his grotto in a near inaccessible part of the forest covered mountain, any questions?" Bulma finished.
"Is there any reason why we can't just fly there ourselves?" Zangya asked, "looking at the distance we could probably get there in just over an hour."
Gohan stopped eating long enough to answer,"Because the whole point of this trip is to get closer to nature, get you familiar with your new home so you can adjust better and learn to blend with society." As soon as Gohan had finished his explanation he imediately went back to finishing off the remaining food.
