Thanks for the couple of reviews. If I can I will try to put out a new chapter every night or day. It really depends on if I'm feeling it. And to give a little about the upcoming, unfortunately I will be doing Great Saiyaman as much as we all dislike the silliness of that character he's needed, but the good news is, I will be doing him very different. So without further adieu, this is Chapter 2! Enjoy!
Chapter 2
As Gohan leaves the building he does everything he can to not crush the ground with every step. He walks a bit further away, and ducks behind a tree. He looks around to make sure no one is there. 'OK I believe I can fly here.' He takes off flying high enough not to be noticed by anyone. He closes his eyes and just relaxes. He takes a deep breath and begins to think. 'Maybe I was too harsh on Videl. After all I did insult her father, and regardless on if he is the biggest fraud in the world I have no right. I guess I'll talk to her tomorrow.' He thinks nothing more of it as he continues through the air.
He passes over many towns on his way back home, but is stopped over one as the sound of gunshots and danger catches his attention. Getting as close as he can in the air he observes the action. He takes count. There are 5 men, all wearing ski masks, and all carrying some sort of gun. Three of the five are loading a truck with the money they've obviously stolen. There's about 10 bags left, and Gohan knows he has to take action. As quick as lightning he hits the ground. 'Better take care of this before anyone gets shot.' He takes off his bag and places it in the alleyway, then with a whispered grunt, turns super saiyan and phases out.
The biggest man in the gang fires his gun in the air, "If any of you fuckers move one little bit, I'll blow your shit to Kingdom Come ey? Now stay down and keep back! We don't need any heroes being shot today!" He fires his gun now more towards the police. Off to the side a large bodied police chief radios in on a watch. "Videl! There is a hold up outside the bank on Charlotte and fifth! They are armed and extremely-" He goes quiet as he looks up at the scene. "Captain! Captain!" Videl says back, but he pays no mind as now the main robber is flying through the air. "What in the world?" The chief looks back at the area the thug would have been but sees a young man with glowing blonde hair and the sternest look he's ever seen just standing there with his fist out. "What the hell who the fuck are you" One of the other thugs says. In his chilling voice from earlier Gohan replies, "Your worst nightmare." "Well shove it up your ass you mother fuc-" One thug is cut short as in the blink of an eye Gohan has appeared in front of him and punches him in the gut, causing the goon to keel over and pass out. "Oh shit!" the one from earlier says with a deep fear. He jumps back and cocking his gun takes fire. Gohan walking a slow pace uses his right hand to capture each bullet. Once the thug runs out of ammo, he tries his best to reload, but once again Gohan moves quicker than the eye can see, and gives him a quick head butt. He falls out cold. The other two just watch, and in fear panic. "Oi screw that shit, get in the truck and let's get the hell out of here!" "Right!" The thug in the truck starts the engine as the other hops in the back as they try to escape. Gohan looks at the escapees and lifts his hand. Aiming it he gives a slight yell as he manipulates the air with his energy to knock the truck over forward. The guy on the back flies up and over as the thug inside just flips. The truck lands and the two men are knocked out cold. Gohan then looks over to the skittish police, who all have their guns pointed on him, and smiles. He then nods and phases out of sight.
Awestruck the police stay still, not knowing what to do. The chief speaks, "Well go round them up! What you waiting for? And call an ambulance!" Everyone moves to do his or her part as Gohan picks his stuff up from the alleyway. 'Well that was fun. What a good way to relieve the stresses of the day!' He looks at his watch. 'Oh damn! Mom is going to be so mad, I'm late!' He once again takes to the sky this time a bit quicker and after making sure he was way higher than anyone or thing could see, he turns super saiyan and flies as fast as he can home.
Landing outside his house he runs to get inside. "Hey mom I'm- Whoa!" He ducks as he rolls and prepares to take on what has attacked him. His mother stands with a frying pan, with anger and worry in her eyes. "What did I tell you Gohan? Hmm? I said that if you wanted to go to school you'd have to be home directly after! School let's out at 3! It's now 6! You better tell me what's going on, or by God I'll smack you so hard you'll have to relearn everything again!" Gohan shrinks in fear, because if there's one thing that could scare the devil itself, it's his mother. "It's OK mom. I just took the scenic route today. Besides, you know it takes awhile to get here. Don't worry. Nothing happened." She drops her guard and hugs her son. "Oh I'm sorry Gohan. I just worry so much and I just don't want anything to happen to you. " He hugs his mother back, "Don't worry mom. If I could take on Cell I doubt there's much in this world, or even universe that could hurt me." She looks up and smiles at him, then the phone rings. "I better go get that. Dinner will be ready in an hour, so wash up. " She goes to get the phone and Gohan takes a step forward only to be tackled by a small Goku clone. "Brother! Your home! I'm so glad! It's so boring at home without you, and I couldn't go to Trunks' because mom made me study."
"And a hello to you to Goten!" The mini Goku smiles a big broad smile similar to that of Goku's. "Now could you do me one favor, and uh, get off?" Goten obliges as Gohan dusts off his bag. "So Gohan are we gonna go play now?" Gohan ruffles his brothers' hair, "Afraid not Goten. I'm gonna go do some homework. But after dinner we should be able to, OK?" The disappointment on Gotens face would make a shark feel bad. "Aw, OK. But we better!" Gohan raises his hands in the air, "I promise!" "Oh Gohan…" Chi Chi calls from the other room. "Yes ma'am?" "Could you come here please?" He wonders about it, but knows better than to ask why. "Yes ma'am." He walks over to the room where she's at, "What's u-" He's cut short as his mothers frying pan smacks him dead in the face, and he falls backwards. He rubs his nose and his mother proceeds to loom over him, frying pan in hand. "So take a wild guess as to who that was on the phone. Go ahead, I won't hit you." Thinking carefully, "Was it uh, Bulma?" "Why yes!" his mother replies, "Yes it was! Now do you know why she called?" He thinks even harder, hoping to not get smacked again. "Uh… Because I uh… I don't, uh, know…" She clicks her tongue, "Wrong answer." With a swing that could win her the PGA tour she smacks Gohan as he slides from under her to the living room. "She called, because there was a report on the news, of a strong blonde boy with miraculous powers beating up some thugs! Now I wonder who that could be? Oh yes, and the description given was a tall boy, blonde hair, green eyes, and wearing an outfit suited to that of a high school student. Oh and look at that, you're wearing that of which they speak!" She swings again but he phases out to avoid being hit by the unbreakable iron.
"Now hold on mom, I can explain, please?" She stops and gives him the scariest look of his life… The mother stare. "You have 30 seconds, and it better be good." "Oh um, right, well you see, I was leaving school and headed here, when over in the city I saw a robbery in progress. Seeing all the helpless people I decided I would do more good if I could get in there and stop them. Considering I'm one of the strongest people alive, it was all for the best. I know we said no to using powers, but class was ended and I wanted to help the people, like what dad used to do." At the end of his explanation he closed his eyes and waited for impact. But it never came. Chi Chi had set it down and just looked at the boy. "What am I going to do with you? You're just like your father. Always thinking of others. I guess I should be more lenient. But I warn you now Son Gohan. If this interferes with your schooling, I'll just go back to home schooling you. Understood?" He stands straight and nods. "Good. Now Bulma wants to see you after dinner. She says she can help. So go and do your homework." He bows and heads quickly to his room. Goten quietly snickers, as Chi Chi now glares upon him. "And you! Have you finished your homework?" He groans, "But mom, isn't it all homework?" "Wrong answer." She swings and misses as Goten moves like a cat and dodges the pan.
Meanwhile with Videl.
Videl gets home and in a fluster slams the door behind her. Her father peaks from his chair and sees her. "Well hey Sweet Pea! How was school?" She just glares at him and continues up the stairs. "Well maybe we'll talk at dinner." 'Sheesh! What crawled up her butt?' He shrugs it off and continues watching TV. He turns it to the news where the report of the robbery goes on. "I'm standing here with Chief of Police, Jared Wallace, Mr. Wallace can you tell us what happened here today?" "Well I sure can. You see what had happened here was the five thugs we have in custody had been robbing the bank, and we couldn't get anywhere close to stop them so it was a difficult situation. Then, out of fricking nowhere, this kid with glowing blonde hair appeared and took them down. Just like that! And the truck, he just waved his hand and BOOM! It just flipped over! It was the single most amazing thing I've ever seen in my life. And the craziest thing, is I think he was only a high schooler." The reporter cuts him off. "Well there you have it folks. A most powerful fighter has come to the city and what's most unbelievable is that he might just be a high schooler." She places her hand on her ear piece. "I see, well folks it seems like we have photo evidence of the alleged Gold fighter and here's the picture now." The picture is that of Gohan in super saiyan form with a stern look on his face. Hercule, seeing the picture leaps out of his chair, "Oh no! H-He's back!"
Videl finally reaches her room and enter, slamming her door as well. "Oof! That Gohan, and his stupid tricks! First that weird wind at school then his appearance changing at the crime scene!" She grabs a pillow and screams frustratingly into it. "I'll find out what your secrets are. And then you'll be nothing." She smiles and closes her eyes to relax. They open suddenly as she sits up and heads to her computer. Going into her search engine, she looks up 'transforming fighters'. She scrolls through, seeing articles on the wolfmen, Tiens multi form ability, but stops on an article about the anniversary of the Cell Games. She clicks on it and runs through all the praise her father gets and comes across the bit on the strange warriors who could use tricks. One of them being able to transform their hair color at will. She even gets a picture of the group. There's a tall green guy, a short guy with spiked up jet black hair, a guy with purple hair, and a man with what seems to be his son. Both with spiked up blonde hair and green eyes. 'That must be you! You were the delivery boy! But how can I prove it?' She prints out the picture and studies it a bit more. "I know that's you! It has to be!" She then pulls herself out of it "Wait. Why the hell do I care for it so much? I mean, I'm almost obsessed. I need to lie down and rest and clear my head. I can't believe I'm letting a boy get to me! Gah! Stupid Gohan and his stupid tricks!"
A knock at her door startles her. "Uh yea?" "Sweetie, who are you talking too?" She quickly hides the picture. "No one dad. Just myself." "Well OK, just wanted to let you know that dinner is ready. So whenever you're ready." She opens the door and greets her father. "I'm good. Let's go eat, I'm starving." He leads the way as she follows behind.
Back to Gohan.
Gohan lands in the back of capsule Corps, and walks to the back door and knocks. He looks behind him and hears the door open. He turns only to be tackled by another small person. "You know, when I was little, we just said hi and didn't tackle people." The little boy, known as Trunks, just stands up and offers his hand. "Well maybe if you trained more, you'd have dodged that." Gohan just laughs, "Well alright smart guy, I see the training with Vegeta is paying off." "As is your neglect of training." Gohan looks to the door to see a spandex short wearing Vegeta holding a towel on his neck. Gohan lifts himself up and dusts off. "Hello there Vegeta. I see you're doing, uh, the same." He grins a big stupid smile as Vegeta just rolls his eyes. "Just get in here. The woman is waiting, and the longer you're here, the less time I get with her." Gohan snickers and walks past him, "That's so sweet Vegeta! It seems the years have made you a big ol' softy!" Vegeta snarls, "Don't get it confused boy. The only reason I spend time with her is so I can get off before I go train again." Both Gohan and Trunks scrunch up their face. "That's so gross dad!" Now Vegeta laughs, "Be grateful brat! It's the only reason you're here right now." He continues to laugh as he walks in a different direction. Gohan and Trunks walk into a room and there's Bulma in her bathrobe smoking a cigarette. "Ah Gohan!" She gets up to give the boy a hug. He hugs back but thanks to Vegeta not as friendly as he normally would. "Sorry about the selling you out thing. I thought you would have told your mother. Then after I hung up, I realized what a stupid idea that was. So yea, sorry kiddo!" He grins the Son grin as he scratches his head, "Oh it's fine, it doesn't really hurt, but it's still scary to see her mad. Anyways, what's up, my mom said you wanted to help me?" "That's right! Here. Try this on." She tosses him a belt with a nifty looking buckle on it with the Turtle sign on it. "OK… Now what?" She laughs, "Hit the buckle silly!"
He hits the buckle and in a flash his outfit is changed. Instead of being in the clothes he was in he was now in black spandex and a green tunic and a red cape, with an orange helmet on it. Bulma claps her hands in excitement, "Isn't it awesome!" Gohan looks at himself in her mirror. "The technology, yes! The costume… Not so much." This kills her joy in an instant. "Not that I don't appreciate what you've done, it's just… I know I look like a dork normally, but if I fight crime, I want to be intimidating. Like… I know! Bulma I'll be right back!" He runs to the window and at high speed, flies off.
"Where's he going?" Trunks asked. "I don't know." Bulma replies. "He's going to see the Namek. That's where." Both Bulma and Trunks turn to see Vegeta. "I wonder why?" She asks. Vegeta growls, "It doesn't matter. He'll be back in 3 hours. So Trunks, get out. Me and your mother have something to talk about." Bulma hears that and begins to disagree, before she remember why she was dressed in a bathrobe. "Uh yes, Trunks. Me and your father have something that needs serious discussing. Go to your room and turn up your music really loud as you play your games." Trunks not caring about what was going down left with no fuss. A second later loud music was heard as Vegeta gave a lecherous smile and closed the door.
Gohan lands on the lookout and is greeted by his old friend Dende. "Gohan! It's been too long." "That it has my friend. But I can only stay for a moment. Is Piccolo around?" "If you trained your senses, you would have already known I was behind you the whole time." Gohan turns in surprise but smiles and bows to his old master. Piccolo bows back. "So Gohan, what is it you need? And why are you wearing that ridiculous outfit?" Gohan laughs and scratches the back of his head, "That's actually what I came to talk to you about." Piccolo looks at him with a strange expression. "Uh Gohan, I'm no fashion Guru. I wouldn't be the best person to ask." "Actually I was wondering if you could conjure me up a gi with your insignia on it. I want to replace this one I have with that one. But only Bulma can do that." Piccolo just smirks and throws his hand out to the side. In a flash of light appears a folded royal purple Gi with the Demons seal on the chest. "Thanks Piccolo. I owe you one." "That you do Gohan. I can't help but notice your lack of training though. You need to keep up with that Gohan." Gohan nods at his master's words, "I will Piccolo! I'll come back and we can have a lesson. I know I'm due for it."
With that he rushes back to Capsule Corps arriving just in time to see a very naked Vegeta standing at the window. "Vegeta! What in the world are you doing?" Vegeta just looks at him and walks back into his room and into the connected bathroom where he starts the shower. Gohan afraid to go in, he hollers "Hey Bulma! Are you decent!" Bulma walks(if you could call it that) over to the window and props herself up on the sill. With the look of being satisfied and a punch drunk look in her eye Gohan thinks to make this quick. "Uh, I have new clothes I'd like you to replace these with if you could. The only thing I'd like to keep is the black spandex shirt." He hands over the belt and the gi. "OK Gohan. I'll have it done tomorrow. Just come see me after school or whatever. Good night!" She closes the window and from what Gohan could see before he flew home, she walks into the bathroom where Vegeta is.
Gohan gets shivers of excitement as he flies home. Excited about what the next day will bring.
Holy piss this was a long chapter. I hope it entertained you well, and yes I am fully aware of the lack of Videl in these chapters. But I promise, there will be more of her with each chapter especially in the 3rd and beyond chapters. Please review, I'd love to hear what you think.
