Life and Problems

AN: Gohan is going to school! Now, how should I get them together? I already have a few ideas, but if anyone wants to suggest feel free to email me! Read on! Oh, and some events will be similar to the events in the series, but the talk and fight is going to be different…They don't meet in this chappie, but in Chapter 6. Sorry, guys! It WILL happen!

Reviewers:

Shades: Thanks! I'll read yours! Yeah, I have mistakes, I'm sorry everyone who found them! I was a bit off…

4- Setting off..

"Gohan! Get up! It's your first day!", his mother's voice entered his half-asleep mind. Gohan groaned and sat up in his bed, catching eye of his clock. It read 6:00 AM.

"6:00AM?! Mother, that is unnatural! That's cruel! How am I supposed to stay awake in class? THAT'S EARLY!", he cried out in a rush, amazed because he normally got up at 8:00.

"Now, young man, you're going to have to wake up at this time everyday, so get used to it!", said Chichi, looking disappointed at his remark. Gohan grumbled, but heaved himself out of bed. He walked to his dresser, and picked out the outfit he had made the day before (the outfit from the series). It was all baggy clothes, picked out especially to hide his muscles (AN: drool), so people wouldn't get suspicious. Gohan fingered a star that was pinned to the front of his vest.

"Mom? Do I need this thing?", he kept on fiddling with it. It was a star in a circle with a huge H in the middle.

"Yes, you do. Every student wears it. It's made to symbolize that you go to that school.", she stated from the handbook. "Now get dressed, and then head down to the kitchen. Goten is already awake."

Gohan's mouth opened in an O of surprise. "Really? Why did he get up so early?"

Chichi shrugged. "He insisted on seeing you off."

"More like torture and annoy me…", muttered Gohan under his breath.

"What did you say just now, Gohan?", said Chichi, looking suspicious.

"Nothing, absolutely nothing."

***************

Gohan headed out to the lawn, full of delicious food, and with a schoolbag on his shoulder which made him think he was actually hauling 5 bricks. He was closely followed by Chichi and Goten.

"Bye, Gohan! Make sure to tell me all about!", she blew a kiss to him. Gohan nodded, looking a little pale. He powered up, and stood ready to fly off.

"Gohan, wait! Don't you think it would be a bit strange of you to FLY there? Can't you do something else?", said Chichi, looking a bit anxious.

"Ustha Flahtinf Numbiths!", piped up Goten with his mouth full of food, packed away in his cheek.

"What? Goten, don't talk with your mouth full", chided Chichi (AN: Chichi chided! LOL) Goten swallowed, and then made an attempt to talk again.

"I said, why don't ya use the Flying Nimbus?", said Goten, looking a bit triumphant because he had said something right.

"Goten, you're a genius!", Gohan said, hugging Goten. Goten just grinned wide and scratched his head. Gohan then let go, and let out a shrill whistle. A moment passed before a all-familiar speck in the sky grew bigger and bigger. Finally, the cloud screeched to a stop in front of Gohan. "Nimbus! It's so good to see you!", cried Gohan, patting the cloud like it was his best friend. As he clambered on and started to speed off, the cries of goodbye from Chichi and Goten reached his ears. He turned around and waved, and then set off at an neck breaking speed toward Satan City…

***************

Videl pulled on her regular clothes, and humming slightly, pulled her hair messily into her normal ponytails. She paused a little, remembering the words of Maria from the day before.

Flashback-

"Ms. Videl, you are impossible. I grant you permission to wear those horrid clothes this year, but your father isn't going to be very happy!", berated the maid, shaking her head slowly.

-End Flashback

Videl then shut the thought of her mind and headed down the grand staircase to the huge dining room. As she saw her father sitting at the table, his nose buried in an newspaper article about how he beat Cell, she sighed and sat down quietly.

"Videl! Good mor- hm? Why did you put those clothes on? Didn't you like any of the dresses I bought you for your first day?", asked Hercule, standing up and posing a bit in front of his mirror.

"No daddy, you know perfectly well I don't like dresses…", she sighed again, knowing perfectly well that her father didn't know that she despised dresses, or didn't care.

"Well, it makes me very upset that you don't like what I get you! Besides, I'm the World Champion!", Hercule said, posing a bit more and not looking once again at his daughter.

" Uh-huh…", nodded Videl, as her father started another one of his stories. When he was in middle of it, she quietly left the table. A tear slid down her face as she headed outside for her yellow copter….

AN: Poor Videl! Hercule isn't paying attention to her! And will Gohan have an interruption before he gets to school? Find out on the next chappie of Life and Problems!
