Hey guys! Benkei Urahara here! I'll keep this short, cause lets face it, who actually reads the author notes besides me? I am going to tart making little mentions about some of my readers and answering some questions at the beginning of each chapter. Rules for this are as follows: 1. You need to have an actual profile for me answer a question of yours. This chapter is the one exception because this guest in particular asked a very good question. 2. If you have an idea for the omake (after chapter comedy bit), I would much rather you pm me than put it in the review section. The reason for this is I don't want everyone to know what the omake could be before I actually make it. If you leave it in the review, it will more than likely be ignored. Not trying to be an ass, but that's how it is. Everyone hates spoilers. Onto the shout outs!
Drama Llama-sama: You know, I really love it when other writers take this kinda interest in what others are writing and it does my heart warm to have an extra set of eyes looking out for those little screw ups I make. Believe it or not, I spent quite a bit of time just editing the last chapter, and while most people would be put off by the fact that they still missed something, it makes me wanna work harder to make these chapters that much better.
EverEvolving: Thank you, Ever-san. It means a lot for me for you to say that. I honestly don't know if I'm gonna ship Snow with anyone, but I'm leaving the options open. Gohan is the main focus for romance in this story, but I may do something along those lines with Snow, I'm not sure yet. And yes, for the most part Ura is conscious while sealed. This is because she's been sealed for so long that she knows how to wake up when sealed, though Omote Moka is the only person she can talk to. Omote isn't conscious when Ura is active because she hasn't ever been sealed long enough to really understand the feeling of being suppressed. She'd have to be in for a bit longer each session to really learn how to remain conscious. This is also why she always passes out when she puts the rosary back on. Her mind and soul aren't entirely awake yet, so she passes out.
And to those two guests: Yes, Gohan IS resistant to mind control, but as in all things, mental defense must be maintained. Gohan was caught off guard and he didn't have time to raise his ki to fight back. Yes, I know Gohan is fourteen. And if I remember correctly, Gohan was fourteen in both the anime and manga. I may be wrong. And while I do like the idea of GohanxMizore, Tsukune is unfortunately more than likely not going to be in this story. I may add him later, but not right now. If you want a good story with both Gohan and Tsukune in it, I can reccomend one to you. I really like Tsukune, but I wanna try it with some new blood first. So... The focus is GohanxMoka... Both Moka's. *wink*
GreatSaiyaman54: Don't worry, I know what you meant and I plan to satisfy you when we get to that chapter.
Onto the story!
"Ka, Me, Ha, Me," The familiar blue orb began to appear and grow in Gohan's hand as his sparring partner, Snow, stood by, watching him charge his energy. At 'Me', Snow vanished and reappeared in front of the saiyan, punching him hard in the gut before jumping behind him and bringing his knee into the side of Gohan's head, sending the fighter into the woods and through the trees.
Piccolo stood off to the side of the fight, watching as the two warriors sparred. Snow was at the top of his game for sure. Even with the obvious power gap in their base forms, Snow was able to read and work around Gohan's style and was never without a counter or follow up.
Gohan rose up out of the woods, a white aura surrounding him as he searched for Snow. "Your Kamehameha is as slow as it is predictable, Gohan." Snow said, his voice coming from behind the saiyan. Gohan turned in time to get a knee to the stomach, a lightning fast barrage of attacks following soon after, the warrior hard pressed to guard against it. Gohan hadn't been able to seriously get a hit off on Snow this whole round. He knew he was out of shape, but this is ridiculous!
That's when it happened. Snow slowed for a quarter of a second to take a breath. An opening! Gohan lashed out, striking his friend hard in the chest with a right fist. "HAAAAAA!" The saiyan unleashed all the stored up power he had gained for his Kamehameha point blank into Snow's chest. It wasn't powerful enough to kill, but it was definitely gonna hurt, which it did.
Snow screamed as spit and blood flew from his mouth, the blast sending him flying into a nearby cliff. Piccolo smirked, proud that his student was at least able to see openings still. Gohan knew Snow would be back up quickly and took off after him, the ground below him cracking and shattering under the pressure of him powering up. As he predicted, Snow flew out of the cloud of smoke, his forearm slamming into Gohan's as the two pushed against each other, a blue-ish purple aura surrounding the ice-jin as his power climbed.
Gohan hadn't learned how Snow came to the Earth yet, but he had learned that Snow was much stronger than either of his brothers or even his father. His families power was inborn, meaning they didn't need training to be overwhelmingly powerful. His power level, when he was born, was actually weaker than anyone else's in his family, so he trained every second he could, eventually surpassing his family. Though this was long after Frieza, Cooler, and Cold were dead. Power wise, Snow's full power in his base form was enough to match Cell in his Imperfect Form (before he fought 17) according to Piccolo, making Snow weaker than Gohan, or himself for that matter, but still powerful enough to be the perfect sparring partner. Piccolo had actually wanted the boys to fight in their strongest forms, but Gohan didn't want to risk anyone seeing him as a Super Saiyan and Snow said he wanted to keep his final form under wraps until he could seriously fight someone worth the trouble. So, basically he's waiting for Gohan to put up his full power before he did the same. Piccolo guessed that Snow's final form would be on par with Gohan's Super Saiyan form. Maybe not that powerful, but definitely on the same level. The super namek thought as the two fighters began kicking it up.
The two warriors smiled at each other as they began attacking, theirs fists colliding at an incredible speed with each time sounding like a bomb going off, the ground breaking off in small chunks with each blow. Piccolo watched on passively as the two warriors tried to beat the other senseless. Gohan gained the upper hand in their clash, his fist colliding with Snow's cheek hard enough the ice-jin swore he lost consciousness for a moment before realizing that he was on a crash course for the ground, the earth giving way under the fighters body.
Gohan descended and dropped into his stance, a modified version of the Kame Senin-Ryu stance and Piccolo's, as he called it, Demon King stance, waiting for his opponent to rise. He was so focused on the fight he didn't realize that he had two new audience members. "Gohan-kun!" Moka shouted, a bit confused as to why he was in a fighting stance beside a hole and why him and his gi were torn up.
"Yahoo!" came the second shout as Kurumu ran up, trying to outrun her vampiric 'love rival'.
Gohan turned to look back, shock and comical horror on his face as he saw his two friends."M-Moka-chan, Kurumu-san, what are you two-" He was quickly cut off by the blunt side of Snow's surpirsingly sharp tail as it slammed full force into the saiyan's chest, blood and spit flying out as he was sent flying. A few seconds of silence and the girls looked like they were going to eviscerate the ice-jin before said ice-jin rose into the air. "Kaaaaa, Meeeee, Haaaaa, Meeeee," Gohan charged his energy, reaching his peak before concentrating it into his hands, a small blue orb forming between them.
Snow lifted his own hand, palm facing Gohan as his fingers hooked into claws. A red orb formed in his hand, slowly encompassing it, the veins of his arms bulging and his muscles expanding. "Zodiac Cannon!"
"HAAAAA!"
"FIRE!"
Piccolo flashed in front of the girls, lifting them up and flying up to the closest cliff, being sure to keep the two out of dangerous territory. Gohan unleashed the beam, the blue stream of energy flying full speed at Snow as the ice-jin released his own beam, the two colored beams slammed into each other, forming a ball of energy as well as splashing the energy in every direction. Gohan was finally putting his all into the sparring session, Piccolo happily watching on as the girls watched on in horror and awe of the fight. Moka was scared more than in awe, afraid one of them would not just hurt but kill the other unintentionally. Kurumu was in awe of it all, blown away by the power her 'destined one' possessed.
The clash lasted for a few minutes, the earth and water heaving around them before they finally finished it. Or, Gohan did at least. He hadn't quite gone all out yet, and he used this to his advantage by pushing a quick burst of energy into the Kamehameha, the beam looking like a tube with a ball in it as it climbed and enlarged the head of the beam, overwhelming Snow's attack and slamming full force into the ice-jin, who in turn concentrated hard and found the power to pull off and rush away from the attack before it left the atmosphere.
Gohan took a deep breath as he watched Snow descend. In the last few minutes of their 'spar' Snow had gone from perfect shape to beaten, bloody and weary. Gohan wasn't much better, minus the weary part. He still had enough energy to fight. Snow landed and looked like he was about to attack again before falling to his knees. He would have hit the ground face first if Gohan hadn't caught him, lifting the now unconscious student and slinging him over his shoulder before flying up to Piccolo and the girls. It had been almost a week since they met Kurumu and they learned about Gohan's ability to manipulate his energy and the extent he could do so, though Moka already knew about his powers to an extent. He didn't hide the fact that he could fly around them, though he didn't make a habit of it nor did they know what he could transform into.
He set Snow down gently in front of Piccolo before rolling him over so he was on his back. The girls were speechless to say the least as the namek pushed a senzu bean into his new students mouth, watching as Snow chewed it up and swallowed it. He gave one to Gohan as well, the saiyan happily taking the bean and eating it as Snow sat up, holding his pounding head. Gohan smiled as he swallowed, holding a hand out to help his friend up. Snow took his hand and quickly stood, smiling back at his saiyan friend. "Good fight, Gohan. But next time, try not to hold back so much."
Gohan chuckled. "I'll think about it." Gohan looked over at the two awestruck young women. "Okay, since I'm safe from getting hit again, what are you two doing here?"
Kurumu's cheeks puffed up as she pouted. "That's rude. I was looking for you so we could walk to school together. Or maybe skip for some... alone time?" Kurumu said seductively, grabbing a now blushing Gohan's arm.
Moka looked at her 'friend' with an annoyed look on her face. "Kurumu-chan, stop embarrassing Gohan-kun!" Moka grabbed his other arm and tried to pull him away from the succubus, starting yet another tug of war for the saiyan male.
Piccolo rubbed his temples as Gohan sighed, being pulled back and forth, Snow just snickering off to the side. "When are you guys gonna stop? We're just gonna be late for school again."
"Gohan, take tomorrow off for some rest. Just make sure you study a bit tonight." Piccolo said before lifting off and flying to the teachers dorms.
"I think I'm gonna take off too, bud. I'm gonna lock myself in my room for the rest of the day and study. If you need me, just knock." He flashed away quickly before Gohan could yell at him.
Comical tears ran down Gohan's face as the girls fought over him. I should stop by the patent office, cause I'm about to invent a whole new kind of pain for you, Snow! "Girls, can we please do this later?" he asked, desperate for the argument to end already, but it seemed to have the opposite effect as the argument seemed to somewhat intensify as they yanked harder on the complaining saiyan. A boy his age normally wouldn't complain about two beatiful girls fighting over him, but Gohan was anything but normal. "Why can't we just walk together? We're all friends here, aren't we?" he said. They heard him that time and let him go, Kurumu smiling and Moka blushing.
"Sorry for troubling you like that, Gohan-kun. I don't know what got into me." Moka said, a slight amount of guilt in her voice. Gohan smiled lightly.
"Just what I would expect of my destined one, so smart and handsome." Kurumu said, pressing her large bust against the warrior again, her soft breasts squishing around his muscled arm and nearly causing him to have a nose bleed much to Moka's horror and glee, a strange mixture. They started walking towards the school per the usual route, Gohan having put his uniform into his bag and just pulling it over his gi. Kurumu was very much disapointed as she wanted to see him without a shirt, but she settled for what she got.
Moka, on the other hand, was happy to see Gohan put something else on. She had seen him basically half-naked and was in no hurry to deal with the ensuing blood loss. Speaking of blood. Moka had fallen back a bit as Kurumu was busy trying to woo Gohan again and Gohan was busy trying not to lose his mind. The smell of sweat and blood all but radiated from the super warrior, driving both Mokas insane with thirst... and other, more hormonal feelings. Gohan finally stopped and looked at Moka, arching an eye brow as Kurumu just pouted again.
"You okay, Moka-chan?" he asked worriedly. She seemed a bit paler than normal, her breathing a bit harder as well.
She just looked at her friend and smiled kindly. "Hai, I'm fine, Gohan-kun. Don't... Don't worry." She was obviously lying. Even Kurumu could see that. And Gohan wasn't going to just let it go either.
"No, you aren't." It was then he realized she hadn't asked him for blood since Kurumu attacked. Gohan smile and tilted his head, baring his neck for her. Kurumu just decided to watch and step in if anything happened that could compromise her chances with Gohan.
Moka just looked at him, her emerald green eyes sparkling for a moment before she abruptly turned away. "I-I'm okay, Gohan-kun, really."
"Then why don't I believe you?"
Moka groaned lightly and looked up at him, blushing. "Y-you're sure you don't mind?" Gohan just nodded, his smiling face causing her to blush all the more as she threw herself at him, wrapping her arms around his neck. "Arigato, Gohan-kun! Itadakimasu!" Kurumu growled as she saw Gohan wrap his arms around Moka's waist before she saw the saiyan's face, and, though she wanted no harm to come to him, struggled to not laugh at the expression on his face.
"Capu-chuu!"
"Yaaaaaaa!"
Later...
Gohan smirked, allowing himself that small bit of saiyan pride he normally denied himself to shine through. It had been two days since Piccolo had given him time off to get rested before his next fight with Snow, which he had been told by the ice-jin himself would be against his second form. A small bit of anticipation crawled up Gohan's spine as he thought about that. It was strange, ever since he came here he could almost feel his saiyan blood burn and yearn for combat, especially with Snow or Piccolo. He'd sparred with Yamcha once, but as the human fighter was out of practice, he hadn't been able to offer much. He was better suited to watching and telling the warriors where they came short.
Gohan's focus went back to the board. On the last big test, which had been the mid-term, administered by Ririko-sensei and Piccolo, he'd scored second, tying with a Sendo Yukari. He sensed four familiar ki's coming up behind him, his training resharpening his senses. He turned to see Snow, Kurumu, and of course, Moka. The fourth was a certain monstrel that had decided it was better to hang back before checking his score. What he hadn't been paying attention to though was that a tidal wave of students were heading his way, mowing him down and trampling him as they went.
Kou flew in, hovering over the unconscious monstrel. "Saizo owned count: 16!"
Moka smiled and ran up to Gohan. "Ohayo, Gohan-kun!" Her smile seemed to be all the more brilliant today to Gohan. Though that may be due to the large 'meals' he'd been giving her the past two days. He never really got hit with light headed-ness or anything cause he normally took a few senzu pills afterwards.
"Ohayo, Moka-chan. How are you tod-" the demi-saiyan started, only to have his voice muffled by Kurumu's breasts as she lunged at him.
"Ohayo, Gohan-kun! Today is a nice day for destiny, huh?" She said loudly, hugging him to her chest as Moka tried to get her to let go before... "Ahahahahahahahahaha!" Gohan had found out that his succubus friend was helplessly ticklish, so he began wiggling his calloused fingers under her arm pits and on her sides before she jumped away to breathe.
Gohan drew in a deep breath, filling his chest with life giving oxygen. "Kurumu-chan, you know I enjoy talkng to you, but please stop doing that." He said as Moka fussed over him, making sure he was okay.
Kurumu only giggled and hugged Gohan again. "I'm sorry, Gohan-kun. It's just that when I see you, I just wanna pull you in and never let you go." she said, her amethyst eyes catching his coal black orbs in a seductive stare, one quickly broken by Moka.
"Kurumu-chan, stop embarrassing Gohan-kun!" She snapped at her succubus friend, glaring at her only to recieve a glare in return. The girls were about to begin arguing again before the saiyan in question jumped in.
"Hey, why don't we check out the places we got on our tests, huh?" Gohan said, a sweatdrop on the side of his head as he stood between the two. The two girls glared at each other for a moment before turning to the board. Snow, who'd just been hanging back hoping for the ensuing cat fight, smirked and walked up to the board, seeing that he had place third, just under Gohan and Sendo Yukari. "Hey, nice work, Snow. I guess being strong isn't the only good thing about you."
"Har har. I'll remember that the next time we're sparring." Snow said, giving him a sharp glare and evil grin. Gohan shuddered lightly as comedic tears began falling down his face.
Moka smiled when she saw where Gohan had placed, choosing to ignore Snow's statement. "Wow, Gohan-kun! You placed second! That's incredible!" She said before seeing she had placed fifteenth. "Oh, look at that, I did well too!"
Gohan smiled at his bubbly friend before looking over at Kurumu, seeing her downturned face. "Is something wrong, Kurumu-san?" She simply pointed at the board, near to the end. Gohan walked over to look, a sweat drop appearing on his head. "You placed last, huh?"
Moka walked over and, as much as she hated to admit it, she was kinda happy to see how bad her friend had done. But her kindness was also one of her biggest downfalls. "It's okay, Kurumu-chan. If you want, me and Gohan-kun could help you study."
Kurumu immediately latched herself to Gohan. "Thanks, but my Gohan-kun is all I need. He come over and study me any time he wants." she said seductively, the demi-saiyan's face taking a brilliant shade of red as the succubus pressed her large, soft chest against his midsection as her face was just barely at shoulder height to him.
A dark aura of jealousy surrounded the vampire as she pulled Gohan away from Kurumu, the same aura surrounding her as they begun their tug of war... again, much to the saiyan warriors dismay and Snow's delight. The thing that took his attention away was the sight of a little girl surrounded by three other guys, the three that had placed under him, Snow, and Sendo if he remembered correctly. He strained his ears a bit so he could hear what was being said, but from the expressions they all had, he guessed they were bullying the little girl.
He pulled himself from his friends grasps, surprising them both and catching Snow's attention once more. They watched as he walked over to the four. "Hey." The boys turned and immediately paled slightly. "Is there a problem?"
The leader, or so he guessed as he was class president, stepped up to answer. "None at all, Son Gohan. Just making sure this uppity little witch remembers her place. Her outfit is completely against school regulations. It looks like bad cosplay!" He turned to glare at the girl, her glaring back and the grip on the strange looking stick in hand tightening. Gohan guessed it was her wand or something akin.
"Really now? Maybe you should remember yours, Class President. You seem to be the only person bothered by her outfit." Gohan said.
The ring leader turned and glared at the half-breed. "You may have beaten Saizo, but we all know you had help and there's three of us here and one of you. If any sort of confrontation..." He was stopped short as Snow appeared beside his friend.
"What's going on in this neck of the woods? A bunch of douchebags ganging up on a little girl?" the ice jin said, staring the three down.
The class pres growled lightly. "Snow Coldson. Even with you here, you're still outnumbered."
"Count again, poindexter." A familiar voice sounded behind them. The pres and his lackeys turned to see Kurumu and Moka, the girl now hiding behind Moka's leg. The leader of the bullies growled and turned, lashing out with a right punch aimed at Gohan.
The super being smiled almost sadistically, his anger uncharacteristically peaked. The look of shock on the class president's face pleased Gohan's inner saiyan as Gohan hadn't bothered dodging the attack, simply catching his arm just below the wrist and squeezing. The class pres's face screwed up in pain as he tried pulling out the saiyan warriors grip. "Not too fun being on the recieving end, is it?" The yokai looked at Gohan, fear lighting in his eyes. "Oh? Afraid are we? You know, bullies like you make me sick. The least you could do is hold onto some of your bullshit dignity when you're faced with the results of your actions. People like you use and subjugate people as you wish, not caring for what might happen to them in the process, even enjoying how much pain you cause. I've fought a lot of sick bastards like you and each one of them wished they'd never met me by the end of it." What's up with me? This isn't like me at all. I'm angry at him for ganging up on that girl, sure, but this is way different from the norm for me. But... I can't bring myself to care.
The class president cried out as Gohan continued to crush his arm, Moka, Kurumu, and the witch girl watching on in their own shock as their normally gentle friend all but tortured their fellow classmate. The other two were about rush in to try and help their boss, Snow cutting off their route. "Yeah, I'm gonna have to ask you not to do that."
A sharp crack sounded as the male student's arm began breaking under the pressure. The sharp sound woke Gohan from his stupor, releasing the students arm and shoving him back into his friends, Snow jumping out of the way last second. They looked at him, anger mixed with fear. "You'll pay for this, Son Gohan. I promise you that!" And with that, the boss and his lackeys got up and ran off.
Gohan watched them as they ran off, shaking his head and hopefully knocking the dark thoughts of what he had WANTED to really do to that student loose. I need to talk to Piccolo or maybe the headmaster about this. I guess I could call Vegeta and ask him. It might be a saiyan thing. He turned to his shocked friends, taking in their expressions before chuckling nervously, rubbing the back of his head. He looked down to see the girl still hiding behind Moka's leg. He knelt down so he was face to face with her, a kind smile on his face. "Hey, you okay, kiddo?"
She nodded lightly and walked out from behind the vampires leg. "Th-thank you, Gohan-san."
Snow looked down at the child, noticing that she seemed to watching Moka a bit closer than the others here. "Sendo Yukari. A child witch/genius that jumped ahead several grades, but is almost universally disliked for her constant pranks." he said, disdain obvious in his voice.
Yukari apparently didn't care for his tone as she stuck her tongue out at him, gaining a growl from the ice-jin. "Like I need to justify myself to you, alien weirdo!"
"What'd you say, you little-!" Gohan's arm cut his friend off as Kurumu stepped forward.
"Hey! Snow helped save you too! Just cause you're the smartest kid in school doesn't mean you get to act like a brat! No wonder everyone avoids you!" She shouted at the child.
Yukari glared at her before giving her a cocky smile. "Better to be smart than dumber than a box of rocks. All that knowledge must go to the fat on your chest. What'd you get again? Oh yeah, dead last." The witch girl pulled down her eye, sticking her tounge at the angered succubus.
"Why, you little hellraising b-" Clang! Yukari waved her wand and two golden wash tubs appeared out of nowhere, dropping on both Snow and Kurumu's heads.
The witchling giggled and started to run off, turning back to look at Moka, smiling. "I look forward to getting to know you, Moka!" And with that, she took off, leaving a very enraged Snow and dazed Kurumu behind for their friends to deal with.
Gohan and Moka both sweatdropped as they watched her go. "Hey, Moka-chan?"
Moka was as dumbstruck as him, helping Kurumu to get her bearings again. 'Yes, Gohan-kun?"
"Do you know what just happened?"
"No idea."
"Good."
"I'm gonna rip that little brat apart!" Snow made to take off just as Gohan grabbed his tail, causing him to face plant into the floor. He looked back to Gohan who just shook his head as if to say 'it's not worth it.'
The glare the ice jin gave in return said 'Probably not, but it would sure as hell make me feel better.' The ice jin sighed as he stood, looking back to the demi-saiyan who just gave him a cheesy thumbs up. The alien teen smiled a bit at his friends goofy attempt to calm him. "We better get to class guys. We got history with Piccolo next and you guys know what'll happen if we're late again."
Everyone in attendance shuddered lightly as the memory of last time flashed through their heads.
"IF YOU'RE GONNA BE LATE, YOU FOUR, YOU MAY AS WELL NOT SHOW UP AT ALL!" the namek bellowed, causing the whole class to duck and cover. "Gohan, Snow, five thousand reps in the back with your weights on, NOW!" The ice jin and demi-saiyan wasted no time as they pulled on the weighted gear Piccolo had given them and flashed to the back of the room, starting on their squats as the namek turned to the terrified pair of females. "You two!" Both of them snapped to attention. "Grab you book bags, get in the back and hold them over your heads." The two ran back, holding their bags up, surprised he gave such an easy punishment... until they felt the weight multiply immensly. Piccolo had put two versions of his turban on their bags. "I see those bags fall, you'll be joining me for detention." With that, the namek went back to the front of the room, the class jumping back into their seats as he restarted his lesson.
"Yeah, lets avoid that." Gohan said, knowing full well just how harsh his teacher could be. They got off unbelivably easy.
Moka rubbed her still sore arms as she nodded, Kurumu just shuddering before she took a look at the clock and shrieked. "Class starts in one minute!" Her and Kurumu began panicking, being silenced quickly as Gohan and Snow grabbed them, Snow grabbing the succubus and Gohan taking Moka. The two ran down the hall at unimaginable speed, getting to class in just a few seconds.
Two trash cans were kicked under the girls as they puked, both glaring at the boys, who just chuckled and sweat dropped. After the girls were finished, they went to their seats, Piccolo watching the rest of his class enter.
A few hours later...
School was about to be let out for the day, only one class left after this. They were sitting in Sex Ed and, as per the usual, everyone was taking notes on the reproductive system while Gohan was too mortified to take notes, his face screwed up in horror as Yamcha-sensei made him weigh the pros and cons of a lobotomy by soup spoon. He kept looking up at the clock, having realized that Snow wasn't there. Oh, fuck that! If I have to suffer, he's going to as well! He raised his hand as Yamcha turned away from the board. "What's up, Gohan?"
"Snow hasn't shown up for class yet." He said, hoping he'd send him to find the ice-jin.
Yamcha looked around, just now noticing the ice jins absence. "Huh. You're right, Gohan. Kid's normally so quiet I don't ever realize he's here. Why don't you go find him, make sure he's okay? You can get the notes from Moka later." he said, giving the flustered saiyan a wink before turning back to the board. Gohan had never been so happy to be excused from class before, collecting his stuff and speed walking out the door, his vampire friend looking at him strangely.
Gohan let out a relieved sigh as he walked the hallway. He had no problem with Sex Ed and, believe it or not, Yamcha wasn't a bad teacher. It's just the thought of someone his father grew up with telling him the ins and outs of reproduction creeped him out.
Maybe I should actually look for Snow. It's not like him to miss class. The demi-being closed his eyes, allowing his senses to ecpand to cover the school. He found Snow's energy easily, sensing it near the infirmary. What's he doing over there? Gohan thought as he took off to infirmary, passing a few other students along the way.
The ice jins energy was consistent if not a bit weaker than normal. That's good at least. Maybe I should find out what's going on. Gohan made a beeline for the infirmary, ending up in front of the infirmary in no time. Gohan reached for the knob, but thought better of it, rapping his knuckles against it gently. "Snow, you in there?"
"Yeah, Gohan, come on in." Gohan pushed the door open, being greeted by the sight of Snow wrapping his arms and chest in bandages, dried, purple blood on the side of his head.
Gohan looked at him in shock. "Wh-what happened to you?"
Snow just looked up from his bandaging and smirked to his demi-saiyan friend. "I'm fine, Gohan. I just took today to train with Piccolo a bit. He's a lot harder on me than I was to myself back home in the village. That and I ran into little Miss Witchling." Snow growled lightly at the embarrassing memory of the event. He'd try to stop a bunch of kids from harassing her, again, when out of nowhere the kids vanished and a really heavy golden wash tub dropped on his head. Yukari's laughter fading was the last thing he'd heard before his wounds and the headache got the better of him, the ice-jin falling unconscious for a few seconds.
Gohan immediately understood why his friend was so beaten, having suffered the same from the namek, but what caught his attention was what Snow said about his 'village'. "Wait, I thought you lived with your family on Planet Frieza. And you didn't kill her, did you?"
Snow merely chuckled as he finished his dressings. "I did until I was about thirteen, that's when I was sent to Earth, and no, I didn't, unfortunately." Snow's smile faded as he wandered down memory lane, leaving the subject of Sendo Yukari for later. "Frieza was the only person in my family that treated me like I was something more than trash to be stepped on and thrown out. He was hard on me, sure, but no more than any other brother is on his younger sibling from what I've seen." Gohan was shocked to hear that Frieza actually had a kinder side, even if only for his kid brother. "He pushed me hard to become the top of the class in my schooling, training me constantly so that I could fight with them on equal terms. He's the one who instilled my training regimen into me. Don't get me wrong, he loved being a tyrant and having people under his foot. But, he constantly told me that I had to be different. He understood that what he was doing was wrong and he didn't see any reason for me to get involved in that when I was 'so softhearted that killing even a bug breaks my heart'.
He trained me hard until I turned thirteen. That's when our brother Cooler caught wind of how much I had grown as a fighter. He interrupted me and Frieza in the middle of one of our training sessions, saying that he wanted to test me. As you know, Cooler lived in his final form, so even if I had used my final form to take him on, I would have lost. And I did. Badly. Frieza was forbidden to intervene, but Cooler had every intention of killing me. He couldn't stand the idea of having a weakling like me in his family. He beat me to the point I could no longer stand and was just about to end it when Frieza intervened. He knocked Cooler away from me long enough for me to get away from him and to safety."
"Wait, hold on, if you were thirteen when this happened, how old are you now?" Gohan asked, unable to believe he was thirteen when this happened. Sure, Gohan's knowledge on the subject of ice-jin's was limited, but he knew that Snow that couldn't be that much older than him.
"Thirty-seven. I was two when Frieza destroyed your peoples planet."
"Th-thirty-seven?!"
Snow chuckled again at Gohan's expression. "Don't be so surprised. As saiyan's stop aging once they reach maturity to fight longer, my people age slower. Frieza was every bit of fifty when he blew up Vegeta."
Gohan's face was frozen in permanent shock as he took in what his friend was saying, trying to swallow the fact that his best friend was two years older than his father. "I-if you're that much older than us, than why are you in high school?"
"Simple. I may be older than you, but I am a teen mentally. Plus my surrogate mother told me I had to interact with others or she was kicking me out." the ice jin said, smiling as Gohan settled down a bit. "Anyway, after Frieza saved me from Cooler, our father deemed me unfit to be his son. Frieza was forbidden to see or train me any longer and I was locked into the deepest part of the castle away from everyone. I tried breaking out, but my father had attached special weights to me that drained my power. Fast forward some time later and Frieza returned from Namek, battered and broken. I tricked my guards into letting me out and I stowed away on their ship. When I saw that strange Super Saiyan cut my brother to pieces and obliterate my father, I was angry to say the least, but I also knew that they deserved what had happened to them. I of course mourned Frieza's death as a brother should. He wasn't exactly a good brother, but he was sure as hell better than any of my other family members.
When I left the area after your father landed, I wandered around in the desert for days. I still had my weights on so I couldn't fly, fight or hardly even walk. I was dying. I finally fell, halfway into the desert, dehydrated and starving. But, as it would seem, life had a different idea for me. I woke up a few hours later in an air conditioned RV. And I mean air conditioned. I woke up and my breath probably crystalized in front of me. When I tried to get up, I noticed my weights were gone, but I was pushed back into bed by a woman. She was a yuki-onna, a snow woman or a snow fairy. Her name was Illiana. She was kind, softspoken, and motherly, but when she wanted to be heard, you knew it. She told me that she had been overseas on vacation and was passing through that desert and happened to see me. She took care of me, nursed me back to health. When I was strong enough to go, I couldn't make myself leave. I was... happy. I felt like I had a family for once, so I traveled with her and even returned back to her home with her. She said that I could live with her if I wanted. This made me even happier as I now had a home as well. She didn't care that I wasn't human or yokai. I was just a boy in need of a home and a family and she was more than happy to give both."
"Wow, that's incredible Snow-san." a familiar voice from behind Gohan said.
"It really is. I don't know who Frieza or Cooler are, but your mom sounds amazing." another very familiar voice said. Gohan turned to see Kurumu and Moka standing behind them, tears in their eyes. "I never knew you had it so rough, Snow-san." Kurumu said, sniffling before wailing and running forward, embracing the unsuspecting and blushing ice-jin in the same breast embrace of death she normally gave Gohan, Snow shouting into the soft pillows that were currently smothering him. Gohan and Moka laughed at their friends plight until they heard the succubus cry out and a slap rebounded off the walls. They looked over to see that Kurumu was covering her chest and a slight reddish purple hand print was forming on Snow's cheek. "I was trying to be nice to you, Snow, but my breasts are off limits!"
"First off, you were smothering me. Second, I didn't do that!" He shouted back, screaming in shock as his tail jumped up and slapped him in the back of the head. The other three just looked on in confusion as they watched their friend pummel himself until he jumped forward, groping Kurumu's voluptuous chest again. Kurumu tried to hit him again, but bit her finger instead as the ice-jin began kneading the soft flesh. "Kurumu, I am so sorry, but you gotta believe me, I'm not meaning to do this!"
Snow was pulled away from the succubus by Gohan as Moka pulled Kurumu away from the alien. "What the hell, Snow? I didn't think you were that kind of guy. " Gohan said as he locked his friends arms behind his back as Kurumu started catching her breath.
"I'm not, you dumbass!" As Snow said this, his tail began moving again, this time coming and tickling Gohan's bottom, everyone in attendance freezing in horror.
Gohan cried out and jumped away from the ice-jin who was trying to hold down his lunch as the girls remained frozen. Gohan watched as Snow seemingly took the chance to try to jump at the girls, probably going after Kurumu again when he froze himself. A feral growl escaped his lips as the air became thick with energy, his ki rising rapidly. His muscles bulged and his veins pulsed as he forced his body to remain still, fighting whatever it was pressing their will on him. With a final scream and a blast of wind that nearly ripped the room apart, the back wall came tumbling down, a high pitched shriek of pain coming from the remains of the wall. They all looked over to see a certain black haired little girl sitting there, holding a rather noticeable bump on her head where a piece of the wall fell and hit her.
"Y-Yukari?" Gohan said before looking in her hand, seeing what looked a stitch doll of Snow. "Yukari, what's that in your hand?" Everyone, even Yukari froze as Gohan asked, his voice having taken a harsher tone. Yukari finally stood and held out the doll, Gohan snatching it from her hand. He had a guess as to what it was from the dark aura around it, but he had to be sure. Plus, he knew Snow would kill the witch if he left him conscious. The demi-saiyan made the doll punch itself in the face, turning around as he heard a heavy smack and an even heavier thud, watching as Snow hit the floor, his eyes twin swirls as the girls rushed to his side.
Yep, this is definitely a voodoo doll. Gohan looked down and glared at the now giggling Yukari, who quickly went silent and looked down at her feet. "Mind telling me what you're doing sneaking around with a voodoo doll for Snow?"
Yukari mumbled something, still looking at the ground as Moka walked over to the two. "Yukari-chan." The witch looked up at the pretty vampire, blushing mildly as she locked eyes with her. "You need to speak up, why do you have that doll?" Moka's voice was soft and kind, but not without a scolding undertone. From the looks of it, it was as if the girl was being scolded by her mother and father.
Tears leaped to Yukari's eyes as Moka and Gohan stared her down. "I-it's not what you think, Moka-san! I didn't want him to get hurt, I just wanted to pull a prank on him!"
"Well, I think your prank is over with." Gohan raised his energy a bit, focusing it into his hand and cutting the tie it had to Snow. Gohan's intense expression softened a bit after as he looked at the witch. "Yukari, I understand why you're lashing out, I do. But you need to understand that this can't go on. Before long, you're gonna end up with no one wanting to be friend. You'll just be lonely." He said bluntly. He wasn't one to sugar coat the truth, but he hoped the delivery wouldn't hurt the girls feelings.
Yukari's hat covered her eyes for a second before she smiled. "Why would I need friends who are dumber than me? I was alone to begin with, so I'd rather have fun alone than be bored with friends." She lied, shoving past the vampire, demi-saiyan, and succubus as said succubus tucked Snow into the cot.
Kurumu growled, her claws extending as Yukari went running by. She stepped forward to give chase, hoping the scare the witch into behaving before Gohan stopped her, placing a hand on her shoulder. She growled again before retracting her claws. Gohan nodded and turned back to Moka. "I'm going after her. With her luck, she's bound to run into trouble. Take care of Snow until I get back, okay?"
Moka and Kurumu nodded as Gohan turned to leave, the vampire grabbing his arm before he walked out. "Be careful, okay? And don't be too harsh on her."
Gohan smiled kindly at his friend. "Don't worry, Moka-chan. I won't be." And with that, he left, trying his best to track Yukari's whereabouts through her ki. It wasn't going too well. Damn! Either she's pulling a Krillin or her energy is just too weak to follow unless she's using her magic. I don't have much choice but to wait.
Yukari kept running, giggling to herself as she remembered everyone's expressions from her prank. Oh man, Kurono's face was priceless and that look on Snow's was even better! I've gotta think of something to top that. That might be tough, even for me.
You're gonna end up with no one wanting to be your friend.
Gohan's words rang in her head again, making her slow her running. A pang of guilt ran through her chest for a moment before she tried to shake the thought. No! They would of just wanted me around to have a verbal punching bag! Just like everyone else...
START THE FLASHBACK!
Yukari was walking down the hall humming to herself as she passed a few girls. They watched her as she passed, eyeing the witchling with contempt. "That's Sendo Yukari, right? The witch girl that skipped grades to get up here?"
"Yeah, that's her." Yukari stopped, her curiosity getting the better of her. "I wouldn't have any problem with her if she didn't lord the fact that she's top of the class over everyone's head. It's so annoying."
"I know! She's such a brat." Almost immediately upon this being said, all three girls felt a cool breeze under their skirts. They looked down and screamed as they found their panties had been pulled down.
Yukari's giggling caught their attention. "Feeling a bit cold, ladies?" The young witch began laughing near to hysterically as they pulled their panties, their faces red with anger and embarrassment. "I didn't wanna be friends with you dummies anyway!" she said, giggling as she ran off with the girls chasing her. Revenge is so much sweeter than friendship anyway.
END THE FLASHBACK!
Yukari wiped her teary eyes as the memory replayed, the empty, lonely feeling in her chest growing stronger. I don't need anyone else. Just me. The sound of breaking twigs behind her caught her attention, the witchling's eyes nearly popping out of her head. "Now would you look at that, boys. A little witchling out here on her own."
The class president at the now frightened girl as his lackeys formed a semi circle around her, backing her against a tree. "Wh-what are guys doing?" She asked fearfully.
One of the boys laughed. "What do you think? Our school doesn't need trash like you around."
The third in the group stepped up, a sadistic smirk matching his buddy's on his face. "That and we kinda missed lunch." He licked his lips as their eyes became thin, yellow slits.
The class president sneered all the more as his body began changing as he took his true form. "You know, I think I have an answer to fix this situation. How about it, boys?! You hungry?!" The other two roared as they transformed into their lizard forms as well, staring down at Yukari like she was a piece of prey. Yukari for her part pressed herself against the tree as hard as she could before pointing her wand at them and began the chanting of a powerful spell that, if nothing else, would buy her time. But her hopes were dashed as the lead lizard leaped forward and bit the wand in half. He spat out the bits of the girls wand. "Tastes like shit. I'm gonna need a pretty decent palate cleanser."
He roared and Yukari screamed, closing her eyes, as he leaped at her again, only for the sound of crunching bone, the pres's to be exact, to stop them both. The other two backed away in horror at the girls savior. Yukari slowly opened her eyes, the two widening to twice their normal size when she saw her savior. "I guess you idiots didn't get the lesson last time." Snow said, popping his neck and knuckles before dropping into his stance. "Fine then, class is in session."
Another body flashed into view as the pres picked himself up, blood trickling out of his mouth from the several broken teeth that had ripped into his tongue. All three looked on in shocked horror as Gohan joined his friend in the fray. The saiyan looked back at the ice-jin. "Multi-form?"
"Multi-form."
"Not bad. Even had me fooled for a moment or two. Now do me a favor and stay out of this one." Gohan said, his voice taking a sharp, cold tone. Snow simply grabbed the still shocked witch, jumping at top speed and landing behind the lizards, who turned and began advancing on the two until Gohan's voice called them back. "Oh Pres, I distinctly remember you saying that you'd 'make me pay.'" Gohan spread his arms wide as the lizard men turned to the saiyan. "Well, here I am. Come get me."
Moka and Kurumu ran through the forest, a full set of thoughts running through each of their heads. Snow's multi-form had disapeared in front of them, leaving them shocked and confused. They followed Gohan and Snow's energies into the woods, hoping they weren't too late.
Moka: Gohan-kun, Yukari-chan, Snow-kun, please be okay!
Kurumu: Snow, I am going to kick your ass! Stupid illusions!
The both of them stopped as Snow appeared in front of them, Yukari over his shoulder. "Yukari-chan!" Moka rushed forward, pulling the child into a tight hug, without crushing the witch of course. It was then the vampire noticed what Gohan was doing.
"Oh Pres, I distintcly remember you saying that you'd 'make me pay.'" She watched as he spread his arms to the lizardmen. "Well, here I am. Come get me." Her heat seemed to stop, Kurumu's mind racing a hundred miles a second as the lizards wasted no time in rushing forward, claws extended.
At the last second, Moka jumped up. "GOHAN!" Her fear changed to confusion as she saw their claws rip through the fabric of Gohan's uniform, but not him. All in attendance watched as the lizards slashed at the saiyan, not getting anthing but broken claws. Kurumu and Yukari began getting some serious nosebleeds as the demi-saiyan's uniform fell away from his body in ribbons, Moka having to fight to keep the same from happening to her. THe vampire heard a whistle in her head, looking down to see her rosary jingling. I see why you like him so much outside his blood now.
It isn't like that, Ura!
Sure it ain't.
Gohan simply chuckled as the lizards stopped their attack, panting hard. "Man, you guys are out of shape. Really oughta do some cardio."
"There's no way you could of just brushed off that attack! What the hell are you?!" the class pres screamed.
Gohan's smile vanished as he turned to the lizard, the darkness in his eyes causing the monster to slowly back away. "What am I? There's a simple answer to that." Snow smirked as Gohan's power began climbing, vegetation around them being pushed by the small windstorm kicking up around him as rocks were being rolled away. The girls watched on, Yukari completely engrossed by what she saw. "My name is Son Gohan. I am a Saiyan who was raised on Planet Earth, like my father before me, Son Goku." The lizard men repeated his fathers name in horror as they began backing away again, trying to figure their best exit strategy as Yukari's mind began racing. What's a Saiyan? That's not a monster I've ever heard of. Wait, did he say Son Goku?
Almost as if on cue, Kou flew in, fighting the windstorm as best he could. "Saiyans: Neither yokai nor human, these extraterrestrials come from the now destroyed Planet Vegeta. They were known as the most powerful warriors in the universe because of their natural apptitude for combat and war until their untimely destruction at the hands of the ice-jin Frieza. They were ruthless and cruel, being known for killing off the inhabitants of living planets and selling them to the highest bidders. They have several transformations they use to ensure their victories, the first being-" As Kou reached his explanation on the Oozaru, Snow's tail extended and slapped him out of the air.
"That'll be explained later in the series." The ice-jin said, turning his attention back to the demi-saiyan.
"Oh, and spoiler warning. I surpassed my father a long time ago." Two lizards looked like they were about to run as Gohan's aura became visible. But, the leader refused.
"You... You bastard! I WILL END YOU!" His tail lashed out at the warrior, the reptiles face turning to horror again as the saiyan grabbed the tail mid strike.
Gohan smirked sadistically. "You'll die trying." He took hold of the tail with both hands, gripping it hard as he began spinning in place. The lizard began screaming as Gohan spun him around in a circle, finishing up by tossing the student high into the air. The other two rushed the saiyan on both sides, Kurumu and Moka readying themselves to rush in, Moka the only one to get passed Snow. Gohan noticed, but it was too late as he lifted his hands to both the lizards, a powerful kiai blasting them both away. He swung around to Moka, reaching out to her, only for his hand to wrap around her rosary and yank it off. He gave her the same kind, goofy smile she'd associated wtih Gohan up to that point before her eyes closed, her youki swelling as she landed mid transformation.
The same bats as always surrounded her body, cutting off from everyone's view before they exploded away from the newly released Moka, her blood red eyes locking onto Gohan's coal black ones. "Long time no see, dyad*." She jumped towards him, leg pulled back for a roundhouse kick, and he jumped towards her, arm cocked back for a straight jab. Snow, Kurumu, and Yukari honestly thought that they were aiming for each other until they both smiled. Gohan ducked last minute as she let loose, catching the attacking lizard in the face and sending him into a tree, cracking and splintering the thick trunk as the demi-saiyan rushed in under her leg, his arm shooting up into the others jaw with a viscous upper cut, sending him skyward as his boss began falling back into range. Gohan simply stood, arm up to the sky.
Yukari was blown away by the display of power both beings were giving. This is the power of an S-class vampire! Moka's incredible, but Gohan... Those Saiyans must be unbelievably powerful. He hasn't broken a sweat yet. What are the Saiyans?
Moka's eyes widened at the sound of cracking bones and she turned quickly, shocked to see the final lizard bent over the fighters outstretched arm, his eyes listless as he stared into space. The only fact that told him he was still alive was his shallow, labored breathing. Gohan tossed the broken monster in front of him, watching emotionlessly as the lizard hit the ground with a wet thud. Kurumu and Snow watched in stunned shock as Gohan's gentle nature had been made subservient to the raging saiyan within him. He had no intention of showing this creature mercy twice. The one that had sent flying before fell back to the earth, breaking his fall by catching a branch and landing on one side of the saiyan.
The other two rushed back in, just barely conscious enough to move, both aiming for Gohan, who turned around faster than the eye could blink, one hand bent in a bit as it slammed hard into one of their stomach's. He tossed him aside fast enough to rush behind the other, locking his arms around the lizards throat in a headlock. This all happened too fast for even the powerful vampire to keep up with. One moment, Gohan was staring down the leader, the next, one of them is on the ground puking up whatever had been in his stomach along with some very dark blood and the other was being choked out by the saiyan half breed.
"Now, if you can tell me in one sentence why you thought that was a good idea, I might let you go." The answer the saiyan was given was an unintelligible gurgle. "Yeah, see? I don't get it either." The saiyan took to the air before flipping the two of them upside down and plummeting to the ground at breakneck speed, slamming hard into the earth, a large impact crater forming around them. Gohan stood, carrying the unconscious, beaten lizard on his back before tossing him onto his buddies. Gohan debated whether to get rid of them and save himself the trouble later, but that gentleness he'd had his whole life was beginning to resurface. "Snow." The ice-jin looked over to his friend, everyone else in attendance still too stunned to say anything. Moka normally would have smarted off about her being more powerful or about Gohan being inferior, but now she was just happy that she wasn't on the receiving end of the saiyan's rage. "I want you to take them to the infirmary and get them all senzu beans. Be quick. They won't last much longer if you aren't."
Snow simply nodded as Kurumu and Yukari gave a shared sigh of relief at the fact that Gohan was sparing the lizards, Yukari unable to look away from the handsome saiyan warrior. "I think I'm in love." she said quietly. Kurumu turned around quickly, glaring at the witch.
"The hell you are! Gohan's my destined one, kid!"
Yukari glared back. "Oh? And what makes you think he'd ever want an airheaded bimbo like you?!" They're arguing was cut off by a violent set of roars and an explosion of energy. All three lizards stood, their eyes white and colorless as strange looking M's etched across their heads as their veins pulsed along their arms and heads. "Wh-what? But, Moka and Gohan just beat them. How are they getting back up?!"
Even Snow was thrown off by this, the three monster's energies climbing by the second until they were each more powerful than the vampire they were facing. One of them turned and rushed at Yukari and Kurumu, both woefully weak compared to the insane lizard man. Kurumu stood over the girl, ready to fight as her claws extended, even if it was unnecessary. Snow rushed in, catching the monsters claws between his fingers. "Yeah, no. Ya see, that witch girl and the succubus are under my protection and I ain't letting you mess up my permanent record." He yanked the student forward, slamming his fist into the monsters gut, swinging him up over his head. "Now, Imma plant me a dumbass tree!" The ice-jin slammed the reptile into the ground forcing him down until the earth around him cracked and his midsection was lodged in the ground. This time, Snow was sure the lizard would stay down, the M vanishing from his head. He looked up to check on his friends progress.
Gohan blocked a set of super fast clawed strikes from one of the lizards, answering in kind, missing two of the strikes because he went too wide, but three met their mark, his opponents ribs giving a sickening crack as his fist met with the reptiles chest. Blood flew from the males mouth as he was sent flying back, reverting back to his human form as the strange letter vanished from his head as well. That's two. Gohan looked over to see how Moka was doing, shocked to see her hard pressed to defend herself.
She groaned as she felt the class president's claws slice through skin of her arm. The few cuts covering her body were shallow, but they definetly hurt. She panted hard as blood ran down over her left eye. This isn't possible. It's just not possible! I've already had to accept the fact that the half breed and the alien are both stronger than me, but this trash too?! "I REFUSE TO ACCEPT THIS!" She screamed as she launched herself full speed at the lizard man, shocked to see him duck under her kick and smile, aiming his claws at her throat. She was defenseless to stop him. This was it. She was going to die. Or so she thought.
Gohan had rushed in when he saw her angry outburst, knowing she was about to make a fatal mistake. He grabbed the lizards hand just below the wrist as he had earlier that day, only this time instead of squeezing, he ripped the offending limb off at the elbow, the monster inhumanly bellowing as blood bathed the ground under it. It's souless eyes locked onto Gohan as a new arm shot out from the stump of what remained as Gohan grabbed Moka, jumping away from the male. What the hell happened? There's nothing there anymore. It's like he's a different beast altogether and his energy has completely changed. Gohan looked down at Moka, who merely looked at him in anger. He set her down, watching as she tried to stand only for her body to rebel against her, forcing her back down. The wound weren't life threatening, but they were worse than either of them had originally thought.
Gohan looked up to see the possessed lizard staring them both down, the M on his head glowing faintly. I need to end this now. I don't need to kill him, but I am going ot have to bring him down. Gohan smirked at the lizard, standing to face him. He looked over to see a lake beside them. "I think it's time you 'cooled off'." Everyone, even the lizard froze before falling to the side. Gohan growled. "Oh, fuck it!" He launched himself full speed at the lizard, catching him hard in the face with right hook, sending the lizard flying into the lake, the water exploding out, nearly emptying it. Gohan's aura began to stabilize and vanish as he saw there was no more danger, the dark energy that had been surrounding the lizards gone as well. Gohan turned back to his friends and smiled, giving them a cheesy thumbs up, everyone sweatdropping.
Gohan looked back over to Moka, who was currently limping her way towards him. Every cell in her body wated to violently vomit all at once when she prepped herself to say this. "You wouldn't happen to have any of those senzu things would you?" Gohan smiled lightly before rummaging through his pockets, pulling out four senzu beans. This is all I've got left.
He walked over to Moka, holding the bean out to the vampire. She looked almost disgusted for a moment before taking the bean, popping it into her mouth, chewing it up and swallowing it, watching as her wounds closed. Gohan turned and threw the other three to Snow. "Give those out to the lizards after I get their boss out of the lake."
Gohan began lifting off as Moka grabbed his arm, yanking her rosary out of his hand. Gohan looked back down at her, expecting to see his pink haired friend return. What he saw confused him a bit. Moka pocketed the crucifix, her red eyes locked on him before she turned and began walking away. "You and me need to talk. I'll be in your dorm room." She kept walking even as Yukari swooned and Kurumu started shouting something about her being the only one who got to go to Gohan's room with him.
Gohan just gulped and blasted off to the now destroyed lake, stopping at it's edge as the class pres had washed ashore. The saiyan quickly checked his pulse, giving a breath of relief as he felt the beating of the creatures heart. He took the male by his arm and lifted off again, flying him back over to Snow, who already had the other two on his shoulders. Gohan tossed the last one on him and started to getting ready to head back to his dorm until Yukari grabbed his leg. "I know who you are!"
Gohan raised a brow. "Well, I'd hope so, Yukari."
Yukari pouted a bit before detaching herself from the saiyan as Kurumu and Snow walked over, curious as to what the witch had to say. "That's not what I mean! In Piccolo-sensei's history class, we learned about the magical Monkey King who journeyed the land looking for seven magic pearls that could grant wishes! Your father was the great Son Goku! He must have been the Monkey King and you must be his son, the Monkey Prince!" Everyone except Yukari froze for a moment before falling over, Yukari looking around at them strangely. "Did I say something weird?"
You have no idea! thought both Gohan and Snow as they stood back up. This time, Snow made to leave, Kurumu just standing there pouting as she began grilling Gohan as to why Moka knew where his dorm room was, Gohan just waving his hands in front of him defensively, when the witchling grabbed Snows leg. He turned his red eyes back to look at her. "What do you want, kid?"
"Why did you save me?"
Snow wasn't surprised at the question, having expected it earlier. He dropped one of the lizardmen on the ground and lifted his hand. Yukari began thinking he had saved her so he could kill her himself, her eyes screwing shut. But, then she felt her hat move and a warm hand press against the top of her head. "I know how it feels to be alone all too well, kid. When I was your age, I acted out a lot too. My older brother once told me that adolescence was a time for mistakes and learning. You've made many mistakes, are you willing to let me help you learn from them?" When she opened her eyes, she saw Snow smiling down at her, his blood red gaze hard, but kind. Like an older brother... Yukari began sniffling before hugging Snow's leg, the alien simply patting her back. "Alright, let me go. I gotta get these guys out of here." Yukari nodded and let go, waving to her self-appointed onii-san as he blasted off to the school.
Yukari turned to see Gohan smiling after his friend before stepping up and placing Yukari's hat back on her head before kneeling in front of her. "Don't disappoint him, kay?" Yukari nodded happily as Gohan stood back up, looking back at Kurumu. "Think you can make sure she gets back to the school safely?"
The succubus pouted mildly before smiling and nodding. "Of course. Anything for my destined one."
"What?! But I wanna go with you!" The two teens looked at the girl strangely. "It's true that I may have fallen for Moka, but now I'm in love with Gohan too! This will be the best chance for me to play with both Moka and Gohan!"
The other two just stared, horrified at the girl's proclamation. "Oh, hell no! First off, nothing's going to happen between Moka-san and Gohan-kun. and second off, if something did happen, what the hell makes you think they'd let you join?!" Kurumu shouted at the witch.
"Sorry, could you repeat that? It's hard to hear you over that offensive cleavage." I'm more than happy to turn over a new leaf, but I'm still gonna have a bit of fun. Yukari thought, laughing as Kurumu raged. Then the succubus smirked.
"Tough talk for a defenseless witch. They ate your wand, right?" Yukari froze mid laugh. "That's what I thought. I'll give you a headstart." Kurumu popped her neck as Yukari took off into the woods back to the school, leaving the succubus alone with her 'destined one'. She turned back and gave him a kind, yet sultry smile as she gently ran a hand down his sculpted chest. "I never knew you were so built, Gohan-kun."
Gohan blushed furiously and backed up a bit. "We-well you know, lots of milk and pull ups." He laughed nervously as Kurumu's eyes glinted a bit before she turned away.
"So innocent, I just love that about you, Gohan-kun. I'm gonna go on ahead and head to the school. See ya." She blew him a kiss before she let her wings burst from her back, flapping them as she jumped into the air and away from him.
The saiyan gave a sigh of relief before his thoughts became dominated by what had happened. He began flying into the air, heading towards his dorm room at a slower than normal pace. What caused that transformation? What the hell happened to them back there? And why do I have the worst feeling that this won't be the last time I see this? And even worse than that. He stopped mid-flight, startin g to freak out. What in the hell could Inner Moka want to talk about with me?! He shook his head and blasted off towards the dormitory.
He stopped just outside, letting himself free fall back to the ground. When he landed, his attention was brought to a bag hanging on the dormitory door with a note attached. Get dressed before you catch cold, kid.
-Piccolo
Gohan smiled as he pulled his spare gi out of the bag, slipping the top over his head. Sure, the outfits were mismatched, but it was better than just walking around in shredded clothing. He walked into the dorm, the school having just let out apparently as the halls were filled with starstruck boys. One of them walked up to the saiyan, his face in shock. "Uh, Gohan? There's a girl waiting for you in your room. We tried telling she couldn't be here and she kicked Billy clean through a wall." The boy turned to a bunch of male students who were trying to pull another student from the wall.
Gohan sweat dropped and smiled nervously. "Here, let me." All the other boys backed off as the saiyan stepped up, grabbing Billy's ankles and yanking him out of the wall with little effort. He gave the boy a few zeni he had in his pocket and apologized, telling everyone else he'd handle the girl.
He walked into his room and sighed lightly before he quirked a brow at the smell of chicken, rice, and tea. "Omote told me you like our chicken and rice, so I made a large pot of it." Inner Moka's sultry voice drifted in from the main room, Gohan turning to see a large pot, the vampire in question behind it and two steaming cups of tea.
"Omote?" Gohan asked, a bit confused.
"It's how I refer to the Moka you are familiar with, as Ura is how she refers to me." she said, her tone cool, while somehow still condescending.
Gohan ignored the arrogance in her voice and sat down after grabbing two bowls for him and Ura. "So, would you mind if I called you Ura as well? I mean, it could get kind of confusing calling you both Moka-chan."
"Keep the chan to yourself, dyad." she snapped as she made herself a bowl of food, the delicious smell causing the half breeds mouth to water. Her voice calmed again as did the fire in her blood red eyes. "If you wish to refer to me as Ura to save time and brain cells, I suppose I don't mind. Just keep in mind we are essentially the same person."
Gohan nodded and reached for the ladle, making himself a bowl of food as well, staking it high. "Itadakimasu!" He began tearing into the food, happy to have either Moka's cooking again. Ura watched in stunned shock as he polished off his first three bowls in a matter of seconds. He swallowed what he had in his mouth before smiling kindly, causing the vampire to blush lightly despite herself. Now that they weren't in combat, she had the chance to really look at the boy. She knew he was attractive to begin with, but now she understood why her Omote enjoyed being around him so much. "Ya know, you work really fast. I wasn't gone that long was I?" he asked as he made himself his fourth bowl. Ura was still working on finishing the first half of her first.
"Uh, O-Omote already had the food made, I just had to put some water in it and heat it up. Same with the tea." she said, still taken back by the fighters appetite. Gohan was now moving onto his sixth bowl. Thank goodness Omote made a lot. I'm not sure how he hasn't exploded yet.she thought.
Gohan finished his seventh bowl, still very much hungry, but he wanted to leave some for Ura if she wanted a second helping. "Arigato, Ura-san." His gaze and expression hardenbed a bit as he looked at her. "So, what did you wanna talk about?" He took a sip of his tea as he waited for her answer.
Ura nodded and set her chopsticks down. "This isn't easy for me to admit, but I looked into Omote's memories from earlier. Your fight with Snow Coldson?"
"You mean me and Snow's spar? Yeah, what about it?"
Ura's eyes widened a bit as she realized they had only been sparring. She had thought they were trying to kill each other! She cleared her throat. "Yes, that. Well, I realized something rather painful. You must understand that growing up I was told that vampires were the most powerful and to be not only told, but shown otherwise wounds my pride a fair bit. I now know that I am far from the strongest. I wish to change this. Somewhat."
"Not sure I follow."
"It's simple. I know I can't become AS powerful as you or Coldson, but I at least want to be strong enough to be recognized for it."
"So...?"
"So, me and Omote came to a consensus. She wishes to be of use to you and I wish to be able to hold my own with a being like you, whatever you are." Gohan's still blank, confused expression caused Ura to sigh. "I'm saying your Moka and I want you to train us."
Gohan's eyes could have popped out of his head at this request, his thoughts coming to a screeching halt. "Say what now?"
"We could start with something simple, such as how you're able to fly. You do it so effortlessly that I'm convinced it can't be overly difficult."
"Hold up there." Gohan said, causing Ura to stop and look at him, surprised at the outburst. "You want me to train you because my Moka," His face heated up a bit as this left his mouth. "thinks she is of no use to me?" Ura nodded. "And also because you wanna stay on top of the most powerful students list?" Another nod and Gohan was hanging his head, the air around him darkening a bit.
Ura quirked a brow at this. "So, will you not train us?"
"I never said that." Gohan said solemnly.
Ura smiled lightly. "Excellent. When will we start?"
Gohan looked back up at her. "Tomorrow. I'm gonna have Piccolo make you a training outfit that'll fit better for what we're doing, which means I'm gonna need your measurements." Ura growled lightly and glared at the half breed warior. "But, you have to do as I say and I have a few rules to lay down." Ura nodded again, shelfing her anger for the moment. "First, no more kicking me unless I do something stupid."
"Fair enough."
"Second, if either you or my Moka are thirsty, you have to tell me. If you wanna survive my training, you have to be at your physical peak."
"I never once hid the fact that I thirst for your blood. Omote did. By the way, I'm a bit thirsty now." Ura donned a sultry smile, causing the saiyan to gulp lightly.
"A-after we're done talking." Ura sighed, but conceded. "Third, our training is to remain hidden. You and me are the only two who will know about it. Maybe Piccolo and Snow too because I may ask one of them to train you for the day so I can catch up on school work. And lastly, I want you to look at this like an extracurricular activity. If you're focusing so hard on my training your grades slip, we'll call it off. Deal?"
Ura contemplated for a few moments before extending a hand. "Deal. But I'm not calling you sensei." Gohan smiled again as he took his 'student's' hand, giving it a brisk shake as Ura pulled her rosary from her pocket, clipping it on. Her hair transformed back to it's original pink color as her body began to slump forward. Gohan rushed to Moka's side, catching her so she didn't face plant into her food.
The vampire groaned lightly as she lifted her head, her emerald green eyes looking up at Gohan. "Gohan-kun? What are we doing in your dorm?"
Gohan just smiled kindly at her.
A few minutes later, every male in the collectively jumped.
"Capu-chuu!"
"Yaaaaaaaaahhh!"
Mikogami's office.
Mikogami looked up as his office door was flung open, an angry green alien in the doorway. Mikogami smiled a bit. "What can I do for you Piccolo-sensei?"
Piccolo stepped up to the headmasters desk, slamming his fists down hard enough to shake the room. "You can't tell me you didn't feel all that, Mikogami! Gohan had to fight again then whoever he was fighting changed! Don't tell me you don't know what's going on!" The namek shouted, his booming voice the room as much as his hands had.
Even so, Mikogami was completely calm. "Yes, I felt it."
"And you're just going to ignore it?!" Piccolo shouted.
"Piccolo, they're teenagers. They're gonna fight. Hormones and all that. Instead of yelling at me, maybe you should do something about your students rising anger. You know better than anyone how dangerous Gohan can be angry." Mikogami said, his tone a bit condescending while still being cool and calm.
Piccolo growled but stood back up to his full height. "You're toeing a fine line, Mikogami. The second you step over it, I'll be there." The super namek turned and walked out of the room after that.
Mikogami smiled a bit as Piccolo slammed the door shut behind him, but his smile failed as he was left to his thoughts. "It would seem that our plans need to be sped up a bit."
Hey guys. Okay, that took me a while to get out, but I hope you all like it. The last bit was done on Microsoft Office Online because my brother destroyed the mainframe for my pc. I'm just happy my stories are on a flash drive. Anyway, theres no omake here because I haven't had time to make one. If someone sends me a few ideas I'd be happy to either add them on here or put them in episode 4. See ya next round!
