Back at Capsule Corp, Trunks is already looking over the time machine, trying to see what needs fixing. "Man, those kids really messed this thing up."
"We'll fix it, don't worry," Bulma insisted, looking over the machine and making notes, comparing them to the ones she got from the future. "It'll take a while though."
Trunks groaned, "Oh well, kids will be kids, though I never acted like that when I was younger."
"Well you did live under different circumstances, though I wish you didn't have to go through all that just to be a proper young man," Bulma said.
Trunks rubbed his head sheepishly, "Don't get me wrong, I had my moments too, you think the you in the future was happy that I wanted to train with Gohan and fight the androids? You think I listened when you or Gohan told me NOT to fight them?"
Bulma chuckled a little, "Good point, I get nervous when Trunks here does stuff like that, even with Vegeta and Goku around to protect him."
Trunks nodded, "Still, kinda wish they had a little more common sense. I'm sure they'll learn it soon, the Kid me might act a little bratty but he seems to have moments where he's mature."
"All kids act like bratty once in awhile, I'm sure even Gohan did when he was younger, though I can hardly imagine him acting bratty, especially the time we went to Namek. He was very polite, always spoke to me respectfully, in fact I probably acted more immature than he did," With that Bulma and Trunks had a little alugh before Bulma continued. "I think it's mostly Chi Chi's influence, she knew how to raise a well mannered son," Bulma said, then began to wonder. "Even if she can be a little...overdramatic at times?"
"If Chi Chi is good at teaching manners then how did Goten start acting like this? Did Chi Chi try something different with him?" Trunks asked.
Bulma shrugged, "Not sure, guess he just took too much after Goku. Also I hate to admit it but I feel like it's mostly Trunks getting him into this stuff, that or he's just a bit more naïve, kinda like Goku was."
Trunks looked over the machine some more, "Oh well, this can be fixed soon, I just hope the young Gohan is adjusting well to this sudden change."
A moment later, Future Mai had entered the room. "There you are Trunks, I've been looking for you." She noticed him working on the time machine. "Something wrong?"
"Nothing major, the younger me started messing around with this along with Goten, it's a little damaged right now but I can get it fixed," Trunks said.
Mai crossed her arms, "Unfortunate, though it's not like we're going back just yet. Our world is safe again at least, thanks to you, your father and Goku."
"I know, but still, I need to be sure so if we do need to go back we can," Trunks said.
"Yeah, good point. Though what were Goten and the younger you doing?" Mai asked.
"They traveled back in time to see the arrival of The Androids, I got them before they could mess anything up but unfortunately they brought back a guest," Trunk said.
"A guest? Who?" Mai asked.
"A younger version of Gohan," Trunks explained.
Mai looked a little surprised, "Wow really? So now there's three Saiyan children running around?"
Trunks shook his head, "Don't worry about Gohan, he's always been well mannered and well behaved. Maybe he'll be a good influence on the younger me and Goten."
Mai nodded, "Maybe so, still, very strange circumstance."
"Our lives are full of them, you get used to it," Trunks said.
Meanwhile with Gohan, he's in his old room, well his ten years older room but still his room. He looked around at some of the emptiness. Most of the room's furniture was gone, leaving only the bed and a table.
"Looks like the me from this world took everything, I wonder what he's like though if he doesn't fight anymore?" Gohan wondered.
He laid back on the bed and started to let his mind wander, "What about Mr. Piccolo, what's he up to these days? And Krillin too? Also Yamcha, Tien, Chiaotzu, all our old friends. So far it looks like most of them are the same, except Vegeta, he seems a little less mean than when I last knew him."
Gohan became even more curious, "What's my wife like though? I bet she's really pretty, wonder if she's strong too?"
The next day, after his Conference was over, the other Gohan was in a room, studying up in his scholarly pursuits. He heard a knock on his door not too long afterwards. "Come in."
His wife Videl had entered the room, "Gohan, I just got a call from your mother."
"Is everything alright?" Gohan asked in a worried tone. All these years of fighting danger has left him with extra caution.
"Everything's fine, she just said something surprising happened today and she hopes you can find time to go by her home, she says it pertains to you especially," Videl replied.
Gohan scratched his head, "That so? Wonder what it could be?"
"You can ask her yourself if you'd like, here's the phone," Videl said, handing the phone over to Gohan.
"Hello?" Gohan answered.
"Hello Gohan, it's your mother," Chi Chi said.
"Hi mom, what's up?" Gohan asked, partially focusing on his work as he talked to his mother.
"A lot of things, question, how soon do you think you'll be able to come here?" Chi Chi asked a bit urgently.
Gohan once again seemed worried at his mother's tone, "Um I'm still in the middle of my studies, is it really important though?"
"A little, but if you want to finish your work then that's fine, but do try to come as soon as possible," Chi Chi said.
"Ok, I should be done within a half an hour," Gohan said.
"That's fine, you don't need to rush sweetie, I know how hard you work, just like I taught you. But I do look forward to seeing you, bye son," Chi Chi said and ended the call.
Gohan looked at the phone really confused, "Wonder what that was all about?"
Videl took the phone, "Is everything alright?"
"Yeah, my mom just needs to see me soon, no big deal, according to her," Gohan said.
Videl gave a nod, "Alright, when you see her, tell her, your father and Goten I said 'hi'."
Gohan nodded, "Will do." He went back to his work, somewhat distracted by what his mother wanted to tell him. "I hope everything really is alright."
Videl herself made her way back to the kitchen, working on making dinner. "Chi Chi sounded like something big happened, but what could it be? Is she gonna have another child? Is Gohan getting a little brother? Or maybe a sister?" Videl started to think, "A sister would be nice, someone for Pan to play with. Plus I'm sure Chi Chi would love to have another girl around, even if there's a chance she'll take after her father." Videl chuckled, "Though I was no different in a way."
Later on, Gohan finally made the time to fly over to his parents' home, curious as to what this big deal is. "Alright, here we go."
Gohan knocked on the door and awaited an answer. He stood there wondering what his mother was so interested in telling him, hopefully it would be something good.
A few moments later, Chi Chi had answered the door and saw Gohan standing there. "Gohan, you made it, how's your studies going?"
"It's going great, I'm moving up to bigger projects now, with any luck I can end up as the top scholar in town, then later the whole region," Gohan said.
"I'm so proud of you Gohan, you're really working hard, just try not to overwork yourself, remember to spend a lot of time with your wife and daughter, especially Pan, she needs a father figure in her life after all" Chi Chi said.
"I will, anyway why did you need me to come over, you sure everything's ok?" Gohan asked, once again growing concerned.
"Everything's fine, you don't need to worry so much, though I guess you get that from me," Chi Chi said with a chuckle. "Anyway there's something, or rather, someone I want you to see, though it's gonna come as a shock to you."
"Kinda hard to shock me these days, especially knowing I'm half alien and one of our friends is from an alternate future, but I'll just take your word that I'm in for a big surprise though," Gohan said.
"You could say that, now follow me to your old room," Chi Chi said and walked Gohan inside.
Gohan followed his mother to the door of his room and stopped right in front. "So, what's this big surprise?"
Chi Chi held a finger up, instructing Gohan to wait before knocking on the door to the room. "You have a visitor!"
"Really? Who?" Gohan heard. Somehow that voice seemed familiar to him, he didn't know why but he was for a surprise when the door opened.
Standing in front of him was a younger version of himself, no older than 10 years old. The two Gohans looked at each other in awe and surprise.
"Gohan, meet Gohan," Chi Chi said, confirming it to the two that they are indeed looking at each other.
Kid Gohan expected to see his adult counterpart soon, but to actually see what he would look like in the next 13 years came as such a big surprise. One thing he had to wonder was what was with the glasses? Not to mention his weird choice of clothing and unusual hair style. Then again he is a Great Scholar, but from the looks of things, the fact that he hadn't trained in so long must be true, he barely gave off any ki and he just seemed a little weak. Then again he might just be surpressing his power a lot, they were trained to do that as to not damage things by mistake.
Adult Gohan looked down at himself, feeling even more shock since he didn't expect a kid version of himself to be in his old room. Where did he come from? And how did he get here? Does Trunks have anything to do with this? Did he bring him back from another time? He needed answers and wanted them as soon as possible.
Chi Chi could feel the awkwardness, to have to show her son that a younger version of him exists. Before long Goten had arrived next to Kid Gohan and noticed the older Gohan. "Big brother! You're here! And you met the smaller you! Isn't this cool!"
"How is this possible?" Gohan asked.
Chi Chi patted his shoulder, "Long story, come sit down."
As Chi Chi went to explain everything, back at Capsule Corp, Trunks is training with Vegeta in the Gravity Room. Vegeta figured Trunks needed a break from working on the time machine, that a little exercise would clear his mind. That and he doesn't want Trunks to slack off on his training, especially after seeing the little Gohan and remembering how much he eventually slacked off.
The two exchanged blows in the room, the Gravity nearing 600 times Earth's Gravity, nice for a warm up spar. They decided to stay in their base forms for now, no Super Saiyan yet.
"You're slacking! Put some power behind your punches!" Vegeta said and punched Trunks down hard. Trunks got up and powered up to attack Vegeta again, doing somewhat better, but not good enough. "Come on! Don't you have more than that!?"
Trunks groaned, "I still have plenty left!" He threw a punch at his father, but the Saiyan Prince blocked it with no trouble.
"You normally do better, are you distracted!?" Vegeta said, punching Trunks across the room.
Trunks hit the wall hard and fell to his knees, wiping his mouth a bit. "A little."
Vegeta glared, "Is this about Kakarot's son Gohan? The one that came back from over ten years ago?"
"Yeah, I'm worried about his timeline. He's the one who saved everyone, if I don't send him back soon, that world's just gonna be another world like mine," Trunks said.
"You'll figure something out, he said it's a month before they were to arrive, so you have time to send him back, hopefully much stronger so certain things don't end up happening," Vegeta said.
Trunks nodded, "Yeah, maybe it could work out even better."
"I just hope that Gohan keeps up on his training, it's sad that the energy that Gohan gave off is too similar to the one now. I'm convinced he was much stronger as a kid than as an adult," Vegeta said.
"He did want to become a scholar after all," Trunks said.
Vegeta scoffed, "We're Saiyans, we're meant to fight, I'll never understand why his Earthling mother decided that studies take priority over power, what good did that do him the last few fights we had? What good did it do him in the future you came from? You don't take away fighting from a Saiyan, that goes against nature."
"He might be Saiyan father, but he's also half human, he deserves that choice," Trunks said.
Vegeta rolled his eyes, "Whatever, he's not my son, you are, what matters is that you be the one to surpass me, if you haven't already."
Trunks powred up a little, "I'll do my best father."
Vegeta smirked, "I know you will, now let's take this to the next level." Vegeta powered up into his Super Saiyan form, as did Trunks, and raised the Gravity by 100. "Come at me!"
Back at the Son Family home, Gohan just sat in disbelief over hearing what had happened and how the kid version of himself came to this timeline.
"So Goten and Trunks, er the little Trunks, traveled into the past and caused this younger version of myself to exist here?" Gohan asked.
Chi Chi nodded, "Yes, the Future Trunks stepped away for a few minutes and well...this all happened."
Gohan looked to his kid self, who was still amazed at what he was gonna grow up to be.
"So the last thing you remember is training for the androids?" Gohan asked.
"Yeah, with dad and Mr. Piccolo," Kid Gohan said.
"Wow, thirteen years younger." Gohan then looked back to Chi Chi, "What happens now though? Is he gonna go back?"
"Not right now, Goten messed something up in the time machine so Bulma and Future Trunks are trying to fix it," Chi Chi said.
"What about him, er me? Where is the younger me gonna stay?" Gohan asked.
"For now he's gonna stay in your old room until the time machine is ready," Chi Chi said.
"I see, but what affects will it have on his timeline?" Gohan asked.
Chi Chi shrugged, "We're not sure, but we can worry about that later." She stood up, "Anyway I need to get dinner ready, your father will be back soon after his exercise, he'll probably have a bigger appetite than normal, and given his Saiyan nature, that would be a lot."
After Chi Chi left, Gohan sat there in thought, this seems like such a weird course of events. Kid Gohan looked to his older self and started getting a bit curious, "So...you're a great scholar?"
Gohan nodded, "Yeah, I am..."
"That's great...so you're also married?" Kid Gohan asked.
"Yeah, we have a beautiful daughter together, her name is Pan," Gohan said.
"That's cool...is your wife pretty?" Kid Gohan asked.
"Very, she's a former martial artist too, she also helped me during my superhero days," Gohan said.
That peaked Kid Gohan's interest, "Superhero days?"
"Yeah, I'll show you!" Gohan said and activated his watch. Within seconds, he had donned his Great Saiyaman attire.
Kid Gohan looked amazed at how fast that was, "Whoa! That's so cool!"
"Right? Check this out too," Gohan started doing weird poses. "I am defender of all, I am the one who opposes evil, villains beware, for I am...The Great Saiyaman!"
At the end of the pose, Kid Gohan just stood there in shock, though that quickly turned into excitement, "Wow! You're so cool older me! I can't believe I grow up to become a superhero, such a cool name too! And that costume, did you design it!?"
"Yeah, totally!" Gohan said.
"Man, you must have looked so awesome, I can't wait to try that myself one day!" Kid Gohan said with a big grin.
Gohan rubbed his nose while smiling, "It's nice to have someone appreciate my look and my name, even if it is a younger me."
Chi Chi came back to the living room when she noticed adult Gohan posing in his Saiyaman attire while Kid Gohan laughed up a storm. She was gonna let them know that the food would be ready soon should adult Gohan want to stay, but she decided to leave them be for now.
After a few minutes of Gohan explaining his Scholarly activities and his superhero stuff, he had checked his watch. "I should get going soon, I have more work to do, plus Videl's probably waiting."
"Any chance I can meet your wife soon?" Kid Gohan asked.
"Maybe tomorrow, I'll come by and bring you to our home. I'll even show you some my academic work," Gohan said.
"That sounds fun, well I'll see you tomorrow older me," Kid Gohan.
"See you tomorrow younger me," Gohan said. "Oh one more thing, watch out for Goten in the morning, he likes to start early morning pillow fights sometimes, especially if he knows you won't expect it."
"Right, got it," Kid Gohan said.
"Mom, I'm going back home now!" Gohan called.
"Already? I had dinner made, sure you don't want any?" Chi Chi asked.
"Videl's cooking, besides you know Saiyan Appetites, better to have more for them," Gohan said with a chuckle.
"Right, see you soon Gohan," Chi Chi said.
Gohan waved good-bye one more time and flew back home with Kid Gohan waving good-bye.
"Wow, I might grow up to look a little nerdy, but he seems pretty nice. He doesn't seem as strong but I bet it's still there, waiting to come out. Maybe I can help him use that power again, especially if he's gonna be an awesome superhero. Protecting the world and excelling at school, that sounds pretty ideal to me," Kid Gohan said and went inside. As he went in, he had one more though, "But I need to make a note not to look that nerdy, though maybe that's just to fool his opponents, hehe so sneaky."
The next day, Adult Gohan kept his promise and flew Kid Gohan to his home. Kid Gohan was amazed at how big it was, being a scholar had it's advantages, great work and big pay.
The two Gohans entered the home, the younger one looking amazed at what he had seen.
"Wow, it's so big!" Kid Gohan said.
"Yeah, pretty cool huh?" Gohan said.
Kid Gohan looked around and noticed a room with a lot of books. "Wow, is that where you do your work?"
"Sure is, wanna go see the books?" Gohan asked.
"Boy would I!" Kid Gohan said and rushed inside, looking around at all the books.
The adult Gohan chuckled a bit at his younger self's excitement when he felt the ki of his wife approaching. He turned and saw her with their daughter Pan in her arms.
"So, did you really bring over a younger version of yourself?" Videl asked.
"Yeah, he's in that room where I do my studies," Gohan said.
Videl looked in the room and noticed a young boy no older than ten years old looking excitingly through a book that's years above his age.
"Wow, you look so adorable as a kid," Videl said.
"I got that a lot, I'm still surprised there's a younger me here, I know that Trunks has his future self around too but still, pretty amazing," Gohan said.
"Yeah, it is, to think that little boy actually would go on to save the world, only to have my father take the credit," Videl said, feeling slightly annoyed.
"It's no big deal, I really didn't want that type of attention anyway," Gohan said.
"Yeah but still, it just annoys me sometimes, even to the point where I let the fame of being his daughter get to my head," Videl said, regretting those early days of her arrogance.
"Hey it worked out for the best at least," Gohan said, wrapping an arm around Videl, getting a smile from his wife.
"You're right, now mind introducing me to yourself?" Videl asked.
Gohan nodded and called out, "Little me, come on out here, there's someone I want you to meet."
Kid Gohan left the room, "Who is it?"
"Little me, meet my wife Videl and our daughter Pan," Gohan said, gesturing to the two.
"It's nice to meet you, Gohan," Videl said.
Kid Gohan just needed that one look, that one glance at Videl to instantly fall in love. Just as stated, she was beautiful, such pretty eyes, nice hair, soft looking skin, not to mention he could feel her ki, she's stronger than an average human.
He also took a look at the baby in her arms, she looked so adorable, to think he's the father of that baby, well not her actual father but he would eventually become her father. He glanced back to Videl, taking in her beauty and her excellence. She was a sight to behold.
"Hello Videl...nice to meet you," Gohan said, his gaze not broken, cheeks getting red.
Videl giggled a bit, she can tell that she really caught his attention. She gave Pan for Gohan to hold while she approached Kid Gohan. She knelt before him and rubbed his hair. "I like your hair, it looks nice a bit longer."
Gohan blushed some more, this pretty girl is rubbing his hair and complimenting him, so close to him too, getting a better look at her lovely eyes.
"Wow...you're so beautiful," Kid Gohan said, then covered his mouth immediately. "Whoops, that just came out."
Videl giggled, "That's fine, technically you do grow up to marry me, it's normal that you feel that way." She then pulled him in for a hug, "Still, you're just so cute, it's rare to see a little boy as cute as you are."
Kid Gohan's face was completely red, this beautiful girl was hugging him and calling him cute, she's got quite a hug, makes sense considering her above average power level.
Adult Gohan is simply laughing at the display, he can tell how flustered his younger self is over his wife, he would know because when he first started high school he felt the same way when other girls would give him attention.
Videl pulled away from the hug, still maintaining her smile, "So how long are you here for?"
"Um...I'm not sure, probably a few days," Kid Gohan said.
"That's nice, it'd be great to spend time with you, I always wondered what you were like as a kid, I heard you were quite adventurous," Videl said.
"Yeah, sorta. When I'm not on adventures with my friends, I'm at home studying, it's my favorite activity after all," Kid Gohan said.
Videl giggled a bit, "So you were always like that, explains why when you attended school, you acted a bit shy and nerdy."
Both Gohans blushed at the statement, Adult Gohan remembering those awkward years, Kid Gohan somewhat dreading those awkward years. During this, Pan suddenly started crying, worrying her father.
"What's wrong? Are you hungry?" Gohan asked.
Videl grabbed the baby, "I was actually about to feed her, mind helping me with that?"
Gohan shook his head, "Of course not." He turned to his younger self, "Wanna help us feed Pan?"
Kid Gohan nodded, "That sounds fun."
The group went into the kitchen where Videl grabbed some baby food, mostly carrots as those were her favorite. Videl set the food down and grabbed a spoon to feed Pan.
"Open up for mommy," Videl cooed. Pan just giggled a bit as she was fed, most of the food all over her face. "Silly Pan, the food goes in your mouth, not around it."
The Gohans laughed a little, the display being too cute for them. Kid Gohan just watched as Videl continued to feed Pan, all the while admiring her beauty. She had such soft looking skin, and she was in great shape from what he could notice. Plus her tender nature was also endearing to him.
A moment later, Videl looked to Kid Gohan, "Wanna try feeding her?"
Kid Gohan looked unsure, "Is it ok? I don't think I'll know how to."
"It's not too hard," Adult Gohan said. "Just grab a spoon and feed it into her mouth, just remember to go slow and try to make sure she eats it."
Kid Gohan nodded and grabbed the spoon. "Here you go Pan." He slowly approached her mouth with the spoon, and luckily for him she opened to eat the food, most of it at least.
"Hey not bad," Adult Gohan said.
"Even as a kid you're a good father," Videl said.
"Good practice for when Goten is born a year after your timeline," Adult Gohan said.
Kid Gohan smiled a bit and continued feeding Pan. It became easier as this went on and soon she was full. Soon after Pan showed her exhaustion with a yawn.
"Looks like she needs to sleep, I'll take care of that," Videl said, picking Pan up, patting her back in the process. "I'll be back in a few minutes."
Videl made her way out the room as Kid Gohan continued to stare at her, she just looked so amazing, he couldn't bare it. Is it weird for him to be this in love? He barely knows her, even though she's the wife of his adult counterpart. It's very complicated, but perhaps it is instinct that he's attracted to her, they are meant for each other as evidence by their marriage.
"She's really nice isn't she?" Adult Gohan said, almost as if sensing his younger self's thoughts.
"Yeah, your wife is really pretty," Kid Gohan said.
"You know what's funny is that she actually didn't like me much at one point," Gohan said.
Kid Gohan looked confused, "Huh? Why not?"
"She wasn't always this tender, sweet girl, she used to be tough, almost like a teen girl version of Vegeta," Adult Gohan said.
Kid Gohan did a double take, "She was like Vegeta? No way, she's too nice and cute to be like Vegeta."
"She's always been cute, but she used to be this really tough girl. She never liked The Great Saiyaman at one point since she herself also fought for justice, always saving people and keeping the city safe, and she couldn't even fly," Adult Gohan said.
Kid Gohan crossed his arms in wonder, "It doesn't surprise me that she couldn't fly, I mean dad couldn't always fly, and he still saved the world a lot, but I can't picture her as not being nice and sweet."
"Well she was, but over time she calmed down, though she still has her moments, but in a way we both changed. We both started as fighters who gave that up for a nice and normal family," Adult Gohan said.
That reminded Kid Gohan, "So you never really trained again? Like never?"
Adult Gohan shook his head, "No, you think I would since on occasion I've had to help save the world. Luckily dad was there, along with Vegeta, and thanks to their new God forms they've saved this world many times again."
"God powers?" Kid Gohan asked. "What are those?"
Adult Gohan remembered, "Oh right, there's a lot you don't know, let's just say that Dad and Vegeta achieved something called 'Super Saiyan God' and now they can channel that ability whenever they want."
This amazed Kid Gohan, to know there's so much more they can do to get stronger. Can he achieve Super Saiyan God as well? Should he try to convince his adult counterpart to do so? Would it be right to do so though? Gohan never really wanted to be a warrior in the first place, but he also feels he can't just walk away from something like that. Perhaps he can learn to find the balance between being strong and still being a Great Scholar.
"Do you miss fighting? Or at least training?" Kid Gohan asked.
Adult Gohan thought that question over, it's not something he normally thinks about and he's surprised that question stunned him. "Sometimes, I mean as tough as some of those old fights were I did like the bond me and dad shared when training."
"Yeah, training with dad and Mr. Piccolo was great, even though mom didn't like it," Kid Gohan said.
"Mom's just worried, after seeing how bad Piccolo used to be she was afraid of us getting hurt like that, plus between the Saiyan Invasions, the stuff on Namek and even the whole thing with the Androids, I guess the worry gets to her at times," Adult Gohan said.
"I like training for fun really, even if I don't care that much about fighting. Even though I wanna be a Great Scholar, I also wanna be strong enough to protect everyone I love, I'm sure you wanna be strong enough to protect Videl and Pan," Kid Gohan said.
Adult Gohan nodded, "Yeah, I realized that a while ago when fending off another alien invasion, I was so weak that I could barely stay in my Super Saiyan form. I asked Piccolo to train me again, which he did for a while." Gohan chuckled a bit, "Funny, I actually had a chance to test my skills again in a tournament between the two Universes, but I passed that up to go to an Academic Conference, sometimes I wonder if that was even a good idea."
Kid Gohan scratched his head, "There was another invasion? And a tournament between Universes?"
Adult Gohan remembered who he was talking to, a younger self whose only adventure had been the Saiyans and going to Namek. "I have a lot to tell you about."
"Also, why was Trunks here in this timeline again? By that I mean the adult Trunks," Kid Gohan said.
Adult Gohan chuckled, "Like I said, I have a lot to tell you, why don't you come with me and we'll talk for a bit, who knows, when you get back to your timeline you'll be able to know this stuff and prepare better."
Gohan nodded and followed his adult counterpart to the living room. Moments later Videl had arrived, "Pan's asleep."
"Good, I was about to tell the younger me about some adventures I had after the Android stuff," Adult Gohan said.
"Oh, are you gonna mention when we did the Great Saiyaman thing?" Videl asked a bit eagerly.
Kid Gohan looked confused, "What do you mean 'we'? Big me said you didn't like Saiyaman."
Videl blushed a bit, remembering her brash teen days, "Yeah, I was a bit spoiled at the time."
"A bit? You kinda followed me around because you thought I was suspicious and you constantly tried to take off my helmet to see my face," Adult Gohan teased.
Videl huffed a bit, "Well you did look strange, you can't blame me too much." She looked to younger Gohan, "But truth be told, after a while I got my own Saiyaman attire and helped Gohan save the world."
Kid Gohan's eyes grew wide, "Wow, a superhero couple, that sounds amazing!"
"Yeah, it was," Videl said, sitting down next to Kid Gohan, getting a blush from the young boy. "Bit tough too, but at the time, I liked the idea of fighting, a lot. That's probably one reason Gohan's dad was so happy when he found out I was gonna be his daughter-in-law."
"Did you know my dad before you married the older me?" Kid Gohan asked.
"I heard of him, he was the martial arts champion before my dad was, he was doing martial arts since he was a kid, entering the World Martial Arts Tournament, or the Budokai Tenkaichi at the age of twelve, I thought that was pretty cool. In a way he's a reason I wanted to train at an early age, so it's an honor to have eventually met him and see that he has such a great son," Videl said.
"My parents got married after one of the tournaments I heard, that's the one where they met Mr. Piccolo," Kid Gohan said.
"Yeah, though from what I heard, he wasn't very nice. Amazing how much has changed, now he's an occasional babysitter for Pan," Videl said.
Kid Gohan snickered, "Mr. Piccolo a babysitter? He used to complain about watching over me, now he's watching over my, er, your and big me's daughter?"
Adult Gohan took this time to speak, "You'd be surprised, Pan looks at Mr. Piccolo as another grandparent in a way."
Kid Gohan snickered, "Grandpa Piccolo, I can't wait to say that to him just to get his reaction. Wait how is he doing lately? Is he really strong too?"
Gohan shrugged, "Not sure, he doesn't train as much, but he did pretty well in that Universal Tournament from what i heard."
"That's nice, I'm glad he's doing well," Kid Gohan said.
"Yeah, later we'll take you to see him, after we tell you some stuff," Adult Gohan said.
Kid Gohan nodded as he listened to the stories his older self had to tell. Hearing these stories made Gohan wonder even more if he should train harder, especially to keep his friends and family safe.
