~I'm going to switch perspectives between four characters, Gohan, Videl, Vegeta, and East Kai. You'll know when I do this for example ~Gohan.
Chapter 2
~Gohan
Shin had come for me early the next morning. I had packed all of my bags as well as a picture of my father for good luck. Mom had come home and asked me where I was going, I tried to explain everything to her but she wouldn't understand. I was going to do this, whether she accepted it or not. When we arrived on his home world I saw it was way different. There was a house by the waterfall surrounded by lush green plains and healthy trees. As I looked around I saw Old Kai sitting under a tree looking at me.
"Well it's been a while Gohan! How's my little power-up treating you?" Old Kai asked.
"Fine, and it's good to see you too." I answered.
"Well, shall we begin?" Shin asked. I nodded and we both took our fighting stances. It was hard to tell if Shin had improved or not, either way how would he be able to match my strength? Surprisingly he was fast, but I was faster. He sent a few palms in my direction and I countered with a upwards kick. It hit him in the face. He sent numerous ki blasts after me and I used my father's teleporting technique. I hit elbowed his back and went on top of him. My fists curled and repeatedly punched Shin in the face. There was a fire in me. A fire too great to put out with water, I smiled and laughed as blood slowly trickled out of Shin's mouth. I'm smiling. I thought. I'm laughing! I stopped and slowly got off of Shin.
"Oh my god, Shin I'm sorry!" I said.
"I think you broke my nose." Shin said limping toward the house.
Old Kai went over to me, "You could've killed him! Then what!? I'm only going to live for maybe five-thousand years! Then all you'll have is your stupid god Dende!"
"I didn't mean to, it was a mistake."
"Mistake my ass! I saw you! I saw that smile and that laugh! Whatever's wrong with you, fix it!"
The old man left me to go inside the brick house near the water fall. I went over to a nearby tree, sat and cried.
~Videl
This place was too much. Dende said I'd only been here for an hour but it felt like days. It was freezing, then it was hot. I can barely even stand! I thought as I sat in cold water in a rickety bathtub. I kept telling myself it would all pay off. The Saiyans would come and just as fast as they'd get here, they'd be running off tails between their legs. But I didn't feel any stronger and training with a boy who's already adapted to this place? I might as well be fighting the Saiyans already. Dende fought me a couple times too but it doesn't matter. I got up, dried myself off and went to my bed. My mom had always told me to be strong and you can brave through any situation. Well it's not like it mattered what she thought. She was gone. Left me and my dad to fend for ourselves. I remembered the arguments her and dad always had. Over money, over his career, his drinking habits. Eventually she couldn't deal with it anymore. I'm done with you Hercule! The last I saw her was probably at the tournament where Spopovich and Yamu beat me to a pulp. She said she was sorry. She said I could visit her anytime. What a load of crap. It was funny because she didn't give me her address. Dad learned the error of his ways. Especially after he got all his fame. Then he let Buu into the house. It was nice to get away from all of that. A shame I couldn't leave my thoughts behind.
"A shame I can't even get better in this place." I said.
"Uh, Videl?" Someone said. I realized it was just Trunks, "We have to get up early in the morning so get some sleep."
"Oh, ok." I wiped my eyes realizing I was crying, "See you in the morning."
Trunks closed the door to my room and I went back to my sleep, hoping the morning was more promising.
