Chapter Two: Welcome
Sub-Titled: The Most Dangerous Place

Gohan opened his eyes and looked around. He seemed to be in a jungle. He put his hand into the dirt below him and pushed himself up. Something was terribly off, beyond the fact that he was not by the pond like he was before.
He closed his eyes in concentration. He brought his dream back to surface. Videl was suffering and planets were being destroyed because someone was doing it for fun. That damn bastard! He couldn't stress that point enough. He looked down and saw that he was in a different pair of clothes, if you could call it that.
It was basically the black part of his Saiyaman costume and that was it. He didn't even have on the boots that came with the costume.He started walking when he felt something cold and wet touch his shoulder. He looked and didn't see anything to strange. He started to feel the little droplets coming faster and faster, harder and harder. It started to hail and Gohan put his arms above his head, in hopes it would stop the harsh flow of rain and hail that was falling on top of his head.
The clouds above him started to blacken and the branches of the trees swayed with the rising strong wind. The wind started to pick up…

Videl groggily opened up her eyes. She looked around the room she was currently in. She heard the light -beep- every few seconds from the moniter that was beside her. It felt like her eyes weighed a thousand pounds. She felt the plastic oxygen piece over her mouth.
A nurse came in and was just about to take off the mask when she saw that Videl was awake. Her eyes widened at the teenager.
"How…" She was going to ask how Videl woke up considering she turned the mask off a minute ago. The mask itself was to keep her asleep while she went into surgery. She didn't go into that though because she was already there. She decided that saying 'How did you wake up?' would more than likely sound a little rude, "How are you dear?"
Videl opened her mouth to speak but all that came out was a long groan. Her mouth hurt so much… Her whole body hurt…
Videl closed her eyes and breathed heavily. She didn't understand what was going on. In her first 'dream' all that happened was she heard someone speak. Now she heard 'If I help, will they stop hurting Videl? Than I accept." She didn't understand! She knew that voice but it was just…not that voice…she couldn't explain it!
She sat up in her bed as best as she could when her dad came running into her room. When he saw that she was awake, he was looking all around her muttering things and asking if she was okay and if he could help her at all. Something about what he said, though, snagged her attention.
She tried to talk but couldn't. She thought for a while and then motioned with her hands like a pad and pencil. Hercule left the room and came back a little later with what she asked for.
She wrote 'Why am I here?' on it and handed it to Hercule. He read it for a second and looked down on her sadly.
"You were attacked in your room," He started, "I found you bleeding in your bed, oh it was terrible Videl!" Videl looked at her father confused. She was never attacked… She was attacked before, being Satan Hercule's daughter and all, but she always knew when she was. Even if she was asleep, she knew that she was being attacked. She thought back to her dream. She remembered someone thinking, 'They hurt Videl for fun. That damn bastard!' and she thought she saw a flash of something but wasn't sure… it looked like a tree or something but she couldn't tell exactly. That was mostly all that she could remember of her dream.
She looked back at her father and shook her head 'no'. Hercule, again, shook her head sadly back at her and looked at her sympathetically.
"Denial is to be expected when something bad happens honey. It's alright. I'll be strong for you honey." He kissed her on the forehead and started to slowly back out of the room. "I love you honey, be strong!" Videl watched her father leaved and mouthed, 'I love you, too.' Back to him. He smiled and walked out the door leaving her alone in the dark hospital room.

Bulma heard Vegeta muttering in his mind about 'Kakarott's first brat' the moment he started training. He didn't guard his thoughts the best when he was in the gravity chamber.
She got confused as she was only able to pick up pieces here and there. He might not try to hide his thoughts as much, but he still hid them.
Words like gone, missing, not IT, first brat, instant flowed into her head. She couldn't really put anything into her head except that Gohan was gone instantly. But that couldn't be right. Gohan couldn't be gone, could he?
That thought left her head when the phone rang. On the other side was Chichi.
"Bulma, how have you been?"
"Fine Chi, what's up?"
"Nothing here… There?"
"Nope."
"That's good…"
"Yeah."
"I was wondering, have you seen Gohan lately?" Bulma started to get even more confused. Now why would Chichi ask her that.
"No, I haven't, why do you ask?" She knew Chichi very well over the phone, so she also knew that the other woman was feeling distressed. "What is it Chi? Why do you need to know where Gohan is? Is everythng alright? Is there anything that I can take care of?" She could practically hear Chichi's thoughts running through her head. All filled with worries, and anger, for her oldest son.
"Um…"
"I'll tell you what. I'll ask Vegeta. If you're talking 'where is his ki?' and Goten's the detector, you might not be able to feel it." Chichi was about to say something but Bulma had already asked Vegeta. She didn't get a clear answer.
"He 'grunted' that he won't do it. Sorry Chi."
"That's alright, Bye Bulma."
"Bye."
She hung up the phone and tried to keep working on her invention. It was for people who have trouble sleeping. You would be able to see their dreams on a screen, so you could tell what was bothering them exactly.
She also remembered reading an article on how people on another part of the planet were having more problems sleeping. Something about a jungle and blood. She didn't understand it though, and at the same time, was happy that she didn't.
