The Body Guard
Chapter 4: Gohan the butler?
Gohan got up early that morning to pack for his job?. He was very curious to see this new enemy that was after the Satan family. They had the ability to control their ki and obviously hide it since he couldn't sense them anywhere. Something confused him though. If they were that tough why wouldn't they just have killed them all the first night? Maybe they're scared of Mr. Satan the whole world believes that Hercule beat Cell maybe there just testing them. Gohan finished putting his cloths into his travel bag and picked up the picture that Mrs. Satan had left in her haste to leave the night before.
'Damn she's pretty' Gohan thought examining the picture closely, apparently she's pretty strong too' Gohan thought but quickly scolded himself remembering what his mom had said about city girls. He picked up his travel bag and ran down stairs.
"You be careful now Gohan don't getting into any trouble you hear me young man?" Chichi said fixing his collar of his suit. She had insisted that he wear it to make a good first impression. Gohan hated wearing suits they were too confining and he couldn't fight in them to well without tearing them.
"Don't worry mom this will be a piece of cake" Gohan said assuring his mother that he would be fine and as soon as he found out who was attacking, he could take care of them and be back home in no time. ChiChi smiled at her son, he had grown up so fast and he reminded her a lot of his father Goku.
"Big Brother can I come and visit you can I, can I" Goten said preying himself from his food and hugging his brother leg.
"Nope sorry little guy not this time, I have got a job to do and you would only distract me, ok" Goten pouted but a quick head rub and his smile returned.
"Ok bye big brother I'll see ya when you get back ok" Goten said returning to his personal pile of food on the kitchen table. Gohan smiled at his little brother noting how he was so much like his father.
"Well bye mom, by Goten I'll see ya in a little while ok!" Gohan said running out of his house and into the sky. Man, I want to help this woman out but I really don't want to stay in the same house as Hercule. He's so arrogant and annoying, maybe I should just beat him up a little then he won't talk so much. That made Gohan grin a little, he flew even faster as he cleared Mt. Platoz and had miles of open ocean and fields in between him and Satan city were there mansion was. Walls of water exploded around him as he flew low over the ocean. He passed over some deserted islands and finally ended up in Satan city. It was just Orange Star City until they renamed it Satan city after Cell was defeated.
Gohan spotted the mansion, not that it was any surprise considering it was almost as big as the village Lime lived in. He quickly flew over the front gate and landed at the front door. Suddenly a man shot out from the bushes with a gun point directly at Gohan.
"Hold it right there fucker" the man shouted obvious fear in his voice.
"Hello My named Gohan I'm here to speak with Mrs. Satan, is she in?" Gohan said calmly showing no fear of the man pointing a machine gun at him. The man used his radio to confirm and when he finally did get the confirmation he lowered his weapon and escorted Gohan into the houses many waiting rooms.
"Mrs. Satan said that she is busy right now, and told me to show you to your room" the guard said still sceptical about the new comer. Gohan couldn't really blame the man thought, from what Mrs. Satan told him about the last attack it had to be nerve racking.
"2-2 Bravo this 2-3 Alpha we have a security breach in sector 12" the radio on the man's waist rang out. The man cocked his weapon and loaded it with a fresh magazine.
"Your room is just down this hall, make a right at the end and it's the 12th door on the left right across from Miss. Videl's room." The man said in a rush then ran out the door toward the problem. Gohan was a little confused, he could sense the security breach and his power level was pitiful even for a un trained human. Shacking off this he decided to put his bags in his room before Mrs. Satan came to tell him what to do. Gohan began his walk down the halls of the massive mansion. The halls were all dressed in fine furniture, portraits of Mr. Satan mostly; fine silk window covers, and fine oak base boards.
"Hey what are you doing here?"A female voice yelled, breaking Gohan away from his thoughts. Gohan look back the way he had came to see her standing behind him. It was the girl from the photo, Videl.
'Kami, she even prettier in person' Gohan thought ' NO..BAD..Gohan you have a job to do!'. Gohan step forward and cleared his through trying not to stutter. "H-Hello, my n-name his Gohan Son".
"That's nice, now what are you doing in my house?" she spat out rather annoyed with how polite this new boy was being. She took a step forward in an almost threatening posture; she put her clench fist on her hips and stood waiting impatiently for a response.
"Well Mrs. Satan hired my yesterday to be your bo..."
"BUTTLER y-ya, he's your new butler" Mrs. Satan voice came from behind Gohan. Gohan turned around very confused. This wasn't part of the deal why would I be her servant; I 'm here to protect her not clean up after her. Mrs. Satan locked eyes with Gohan and without any words he knew to go along with it. " We thought that Serina could use a break after all that has happened these last couple of weeks" she turned back to her daughter. " So we hired a new servant to ease the work load off of her"
"Here Gohan let me show you to the servant quarters" Amber said before Videl could continue the argument. Gohan just let himself be dragged away by Amber. After they were far enough away that Videl couldn't hear she stopped to explain. " Sorry about that Gohan, I forgot to mention that Videl or my husband cannot find out about you being Videl body guard" Amber explained "Videl is just as stubborn as her father, she won't except help from anyone no matter what".
"Ya but I don't know anything about being a Butler" Gohan said trying not to sound like he was wining. Amber just smiled as she open the door to his room for the next couple of months. The room was pretty plan but was huge. It was at least half the size of his house. It looked like it was made to be decorated the way the servant wanted. Since he would be spending the next couple of months he would have to decorate it.
"Don't worry Gohan, like I told you Videl doesn't except help from anyone, she won't ask for much. You'll just have to clean up a little bit and do a few choirs" Amber explained. "If you have any thing you need you can ask Serina the maid, she's in on the whole thing". Amber said just about to leave. "Oh.. and there one more thing, if you can avoid it try and stay away from Mr. Satan"
"No argument from me" Gohan said aggravated by the reminder that he would be in the same house as the baka who lied to the entire world about beating Cell, and mocked his father after he sacrificed himself during the Cell Games. Amber noticed his aggravation and this made her worried a little bit.
'If Hercule says the wrong thing in front Gohan he could end up in the hospital' Amber thought trying her best to smile. "Well just get settled in and I'll explain what you will be doing here" Amber said closing the door behind her. Gohan picked up his bag and started to unpack. He had a whole library of book curtseys of his mother, some training weighted clothing, his normal clothes and a few senzue beans just in case. He decided to get familiar with his new home so he got up and took a walk around the mansion.
"Hey" a familiar voice came from behind him. " I'm glad I found you" Videl came running up behind Gohan. " I just wanted to.. you know.. Apologize for earlier" Videl said looking down at her feet. Gohan assumed she wasn't use to apologising.
"Hey it's no problem, I've heard what's been happening around here" Gohan said trying to make peace with the Satan women. "Hey is there anything I can get for you Miss. Videl?" Gohan said getting into his new role.
"Please, enough with the formality call me Videl" Videl said lightening the mood. "and no I don't need anything, thank you"
"Well if ya need anything just ask me ok..Bye" Gohan said continuing on his tour unaware of Videl's eyes locked on Gohan well formed back end. Mrs. Satan, who had returned to talk to her head maid Serina saw this and snuck up behind Videl. She grinned noticing the direction of Videl's eyes as Gohan walked away.
"MOM!" Videl nearly screamed as her mother put her hand on her shoulder pulled her out of her day dream." I was just...making sure he knew..ummm.. Were e-everything was". Videl said franticly trying to hide the blush on her face.
"Okay honey" Amber said only making her smirk grow larger "what ever you say 'del".
Servant Quarters
Gohan walked into the servant quarters near his room, he was trying to find sheets for his bed but instead ran into a middle aged woman ironing something well she hummed a familiar tune he hadn't heard in ages. The women had her back to him and normally Gohan would be polite and announce his presence but he was too busy trying to figure out where he had heard that song before. Suddenly the women turned around concentrating on her now perfectly ironed shirts. Looking up from her shirts and catching her first glimpse of Gohan she screamed.
"OH MY KAMI... you scared the begeezers out of me!" said the women holding her heart with her free hand.
"Sorry mame I didn't mean to scary you I was looking for some bedding" Gohan apologised "My name is Gohan am the...new servant".
"Oh Gohan don't worry Mrs. Satan has told me all about you, there no need to lie to me" Serina said eyeing Gohan suspiciously. "Don't take this the wrong way Gohan but you don't look like much of a bodyguard to me". Gohan just smiled back at the women making her a little uneasy.
"Well many people have made that mistake before, most of them aren't around to talk about it though" Gohan said smile showing the older women he was only joking, well making her think he was only joking.
"Well I'll take your word for it then" Sernia said handing him a white stack of bedding for his new home.
"Thank you!" was Gohan's only replay as he left with his bedding. This was going to be hard to try and keep up.
