Last Time:

But then the new gym teacher walked in and looked at the class and said, "Okay everyone. I am the new gym teacher for your school. And unlike the last one, I will not go easy on any of you. Now get down on the floor ans run 4 laps around the court and when I call your name say that you are here then go take a seat on the benches understood?"

The class nods and starts running laps around the court. Gohan takes him time getting down and said, "hello Tien"

Now:

"Hey Gohan...so this is the school your mother signed you into, how is it so far?" asked Tien.

"Not bad so far, but then again not much bothers me too much sense Cell...anyway how did you get the job here?" Gohan responded.

"I was looking for one anyway and after they saw some of the tapes from when me and your father fought in the world tournament they decided to give me an interview and the rest is history. But a lot of the other teachers are trying to figure out why I am allowed to wear a baseball cap while they can't. I think if I told them because I have a 3rd eye they would freak...so of course I got the principle to get me permission to do so." Tien explains while checking off names on the roster as they run by him saying their name seeing that he was distracted.

Then Gohan starts running so that he is at the same lap as Videl and Sharpner so that he wouldn't look like he was getting out of gym class.

"So Gohan what were you and the teacher talking about?" asked Videl.

"He's an old family friend so we caught up a bit" Gohan answers simply.

After they were finished with their laps they sat down on the benches waiting for Tien to announce what was next.

"Okay class, now that I am your gym teacher we will spending the year on martial arts. It is the year of the tournament after all. So I'm going to split you all up based on experience. Now those with 10 or more years of experience please come down and stand next to the woman's locker room door.

At this Gohan, Videl, Sharpner and Erasa walk over. Videl, Sharpner and Gohan look at her funny and she says, "I have ten years experience, all just to stay in shape. The teacher never said what was the experience for so I still count...hey stop looking at me like that. I can so kick your butt Sharpner so shut up."

So they do. After the class was separated Tien told the most experienced to just spar how they like while he would focused on the others...as they all have just about 5 years worth of training.

"So Gohan how much training have you had?" asked Erasa. Once she asked Sharpner and Videl listened in to find out for them selves.

"Well lets see. I started training when I was 4 so 14 years experience sense I am 18 now." Gohan answers.

"Where did you study for so long?" asked Videl and Sharpner.

"Well lets see, my first teacher was a man named Piccolo. He was in the martial arts tournament the year my dad won..." Gohan started.

"Wait who is your dad?" asked Erasa. But Sharpner and Videl were starting to have chills. They knew Gohan's last name was Son and a Goku Son beat someone named Piccolo at the tournament the year when the stadium was destroyed. So they were starting to piece together that a son of the legendary Goku was in their school.

"My dad's name was Goku." Gohan answered sadly.

"Wait, what do you mean by was? Did he change his name?" asked Erasa.

"No. He died fighting Cell at the Cell games." Gohan forced out with what could be seen as a tear forming in his left eye.

Videl and Erasa both went wide eyed while Sharpner blacked out on his feet...well he blacked out because he didn't think that would be Gohan's answer. Goku was the first martial artist that got him into it by simply watching his matches on tape. Erasa felt bad for Gohan while Videl did as well but she was remembering what it felt like to lose someone they loved.

Gohan then grinned and said, "I know this because I was at the Cell games. That's all I'm going to say on that." then the bell rang and he went off to class ahead of them as Videl and Erasa were trying to wake up Sharpner.

Tien was watching the scene the entire time. "He still didn't get over the Cell games...but who can blame him. Dende told me that Hurcule, Vegeta, Yamcha, and Krillen still have nightmares of that day even now. That was defiantly a day that changed the world...but I also think it gave Gohan something that was too hard for him to take at his age. I wish I could have done more to help the kid. He saved my life that day and I couldn't even help him to at least just think of the good times with his dad...I wonder what the others have done to try to help keep his mind off of it." he thought to him self.

After school Gohan got Videl's, Sharpner's, and Erasa's numbers so that he could call them later and went home. Once there Videl called him to try to get him to come over her place. She wanted to hang out and try to get to know him long but when he answered he told her he had plans already. She understood and told him to call as soon as he was free and he agreed. After doing his homework he went off to Capsule Corps to spar with Vegeta, well that and to see if that was where his mom was.

Once there he found his mom talking with Bulma and said his hellos and went off to find Vegeta. He found him already training and said, "hey Vegeta. Why don't I join you for a spar. I need to do something to calm my self down."

"Someone asked you about your father at that school didn't they?" Vegeta asked.

"Yeah...I still find it hard to get over." Gohan responds.

"Gohan you will probably never get over it...I still have nightmares of the day Frieza killed my dad and destroyed my home planet... things as they will never truly go away. You just need away to deal with it. Turn the pain into something good. Me, I train so that I can prove to my father that he didn't leave me as just a boy. To prove to him that I am strong as him...not only that but stronger than him...at first it was to get my revenge against Frieza for what he did...but it was still fun as hell to see your father whip him around on planet Namick. That is one thing that I was grateful for your father, he gave me a front row seat to Frieza's end." Vegeta says in a father like tone.

Gohan looks at him in the eyes and says, "But what should I do?"

"Gohan from what I could tell about your father he was the family type. I feel what would make him happy is if he could see you find a mate and have a family from his seat with King Kai. But also show the world that what he taught you is still being used...Gohan you will probably always be stronger than me because of that, plus you don't only have some of his skills but some of the namick's, the chromedome's, and mine. You were trained by many of this planet's strongest fighters as well as those not of this world. You made some up sense the Cell Games...hell you went to the next level of super sajyin. I still can only go level 2, but you have level 3 at your disposable. Just do what you want in life, relax a bit. You have a hard life, just as I. You and me both should consider a vacation, but with our luck that would be when some damned ancient alien wakes up from sleep and brings to us a new threat to the earth." Vegeta answers in yet again a father like tone.

They both have a small laugh at Vegeta's last part but then start their spar. All the while having fun while getting stronger still. After the Cell games this has been the relationship that Gohan and Vegeta had with each other. As a result Trunks thinks of Gohan as his older cousin and Goten calls Vegeta Uncle Vegeta.

Meanwhile at the Hurcule estate.

"Hey daddy. Umm can I ask you something about the Cell Games?" asked Videl.

"Sure honey." responds Hurcule.

"Did a man that looks like this fight Cell?" Videl asks showing him a picture of Goku.

"Yes he was there. I was wondering why he looked familiar. Why you ask?" Hurcule questions.

"Because I made a new friend today at school...his son. Was he the little boy that fought Cell after Goku?" Videl asks.

Hurcule smiles and says, "Yes he was... that kid... that kid is the real savior of this planet. He was the one who defeated Cell."

"WHAT! You mean Gohan beat Cell! And he was like 11 back then right!" Videl asks surprised.

Hurcule chuckles and says, "If that is his name then yes... I would like to meet him personally well one where he could talk... he would defiantly be a boy that I would allow you to date Videl."

Videl blushes and says, "I just met him. I'm not going to date him that soon, I'm not like Erasa dad!"

Hurcule chuckles again and says, "Well none the less. I would sure like to see if he has gotten stronger sense then, and if he knows someone that could train you better than me...I know you are already stronger than me Videl. No more holding back when we spar got it. I want to see just home much better than you are than me."

Videl was surprised again and said, "I'm better than you now?"

"Videl your friend Sharpner is better than me, and you can beat him easily. That just shows you who is best there is in this family...not in martial arts cause I'm pretty sure Gohan Son is better than all of us combined 10 times over...anyway why don't you get ready. I was invited over to Capsule Corps and I'm allowed to bring you over. In fact I think I heard someone asking Mrs. Briefs if I could get you over...oh well. We are going to have dinner there as me and her talk about some ideas for new training equipment." Hurcule says to her as he gets up to his room.

Videl nods and wonders how would anyone at CC know her.

AN: Well here it is Chapter 2.
