Chapter 4: Orange Hell High School

Author: Just a heads up, I rushed this chapter so it might be too short and too quick

I yawn and stretch as my alarm went off. I turned the alarm off and walked to my sons room, ready to wake them up and get changed. When I opened the door to their room, I found them in a funny position, Junior's feet were in Goten's face while his did the same. I chuckled at their position. I shook Junior, trying to wake him up. He groaned and squirmed around, I roll my eyes and shook him again. This time, his eyes slowly opened and noticed Goten's feet in his face. He pushed them away and fell off the bed.

"That was gross!" He shouted while wiping his mouth. Goten sat up and looked at him, before looking up at me.

"Hi dad! We're up!" He chirped. I smile.

"I can see that." I reply. "Listen, I want you two to get changed into these." I throw them the school uniform I got before we left OSHS. They look at it with disbelief.

"These look dorky." Junior pointed.

"I know. But that's what the school wants us to wear." I reply. Junior groaned and grabbed the uniform, while Goten looked at it with amazement. "I'm also gonna get changed. Then when we're all changed, I'll make breakfast and we'll be ready to leave." Both of them nod and I shut their door behind me.

After having breakfast and getting changed, we hopped on flying Nimbus and flew to the school. To be honest, I'm actually nervous for going to school. I fought so many bad guys from our past and now I'm afraid of High School. I snort from that and looked at Goten and Junior. Junior had a bored expression on his face while Goten looked like he was gonna explode from excitement.

"Who's excited?" I asked. Just as I thought, Goten raised his hand while Junior raised it half way. "What's wrong Junior?"

"It's just, I'm not that stoked for school." He sighed. I look at him before tracing my lips to a fine line. "So here's the rules: No going super, No showing off your powers, and no pranks." They were silent before nodding. "Understand? If you do, no meals for you guys for a whole day." I chuckle when I saw them pale.

"So, uh, where's the school?" Goten asked, changing the subject.

"Oh, it's straight ahead." I pointed the large high school that was across from us. Nimbus flew faster until we reached the roof. We hopped off and went inside. Goten and Junior looked in awe at the hallways, even I was surprised. "Big school." They nod in agreement.

"Where's the elementary school?" Junior asked. I took out a piece of paper with their class room number. "Room 207." I led them to the stairs to the elementary school building. The school was the same as the high school, but smaller. Once we found the room number and knocked, a teacher, about in her forty's with glasses and brown hair, opened the door with a goofy smile.

"Why, hello there?" She greeted while smiling. "I'm Mrs. Martinez." She looked down at Junior and Goten. "And I suppose there two wonderful children are my students?" Goten shyly waved while Junior bowed his head.

"Yep these are them alright." I bent down and gave them a hug. "Now, I want you two to behave and polite. And remember what I said. See you soon." They sadly nodded and walked in the classroom to play with the rest of the students.

"I can tell they're energetic." Mrs. Martinez pointed. "It'll be a pleasure having your sons here." Before she could close the door, I stopped her.

"Actually Mrs Martinez, Goten is my little brother." I pointed to my little brother. "And Junior is actually my son. Thanks." She nodded and shut the door. I stood there for a brief moment before heading back into the high school. While walking, I noticed a lot of pictures of this girl with black hair and blue eyes, Some of her hair tied like a pig tail. I raise an eyebrow at the pictures before heading to my class room door. Once I found it, I sighed and knocked on the door. A bald man opened the door and smiled a big smile.

"You must be Son Gohan!" The bald man shook my hand. "I'm Mr. Johnson and it's a pleasure having you here. I heard you got a perfect score on all of your tests." I nod my head awkwardly. "Oh please, come in. Listen up class! We have a new student joing us! He got a perfect score on all of his exams!" I heard some people whisper 'Nerd! Geek! Loser!' I snort. "Please come in Mr Son." I stepped in the classroom and all eyes were on me. "Tell us something about yourself."

"My name is Gohan." I greeted. "I live with my little brother and..." I stopped myself when I was about to say 'son'. I stood there for a moment before finishing. "cousin. And I'm also interested in martial arts." Some people looked at me in disbelief. "I'm done."

"Please find a seat."

"Over here cutie! Over here!" A blonde girl waved over in the distance. I bit my lip before heading towards her. When I found where she was, I sat next to her. "Hi! I'm Erasa with an E!" She then pointed to a boy with blonde boy, who was sitting next to a girl with black hair, who was sitting next to Erasa. "And this is Sharpener!" She then pointed to the black haired girl. "And that's Videl! Do you know who she's the daughter of?" Erasa seemed to wait for my reaction to Videl.

"No." I reply, earning a shocked look from everyone.

"You don't know?!" Most of the kids shouted. I raise an eyebrow while looking at Videl.

"Who're you the daughter of?" I heard her growl, which wasn't a good sign.

"I'M THE DAUGHTER OF THE HERCULE! YOU KNOW THE MAN WHO SAVED THE ENTIRE EARTH FROM CELL!?" She exploded. It took all my will power to also explode... from laughter.

"Oh, hello." I waved. She glared at me before looking away.

"Son Gohan here might teach you a lesson or two about learning and behavior." The teacher said. "I expect all of you to learn a thing or two from him." Sharpener snorted. "Now back on the topic..." I take the books out of my bag and put'em on my desk. Not even 5 minutes in this class and I'm already bored out of my mind. I've learned all this stuff already! Ignoring the teacher, I only thought about Junior and Goten and how they're doing. They're probably having a lot more fun than me.

"I wonder how they're doing?" I asked a little too loudly.

"Wonder how who are doing?" Erasa asked while smiling. I jump from surprise and looked at her.

"Oh, my little brother. He's in elementary school." I reply. Erasa nodded.

"I bet they're as cute as you." She pinched my cheek before looking back at her book. I blush as I notice Videl just glaring at me. She's been doing that for about 10 minutes! I looked at her, before she turned her head around, pretending she wasn't looking. I roll my eyes until the bell rung.

"So brains," Sharpener said as he stood over me while I put my books away. "What class do you have next?" I take out my schedule and read the list. 2nd period: Science. 3rd period: Art.

"I have Science." I reply. Sharpener snorted.

"Well we all have Gym 8th period. And we're learning martial arts. I can't wait to see how you do martial arts." He laughed and walked away. I roll my eyes again and walk out of the classroom. When I arrived at the science room, the teacher waiting me near the door.

"Ah, so you must be Mr. Son?" The teacher shook my hand. "I'm Mrs. Andrew. Please have a seat next to Videl over there." I look over her shoulder to see Videl, looking at me. I frown a little and settled next to her.

"So, your name is 'Son Gohan'?" She asked while raising an eyebrow. I look at her before nodding. "That name sounds familiar." I chuckle weirdly and looked away. About 20 minutes later, my mind wondered off again and I started to draw stuff in my notebook. I was so deep in thought that I didn't notice the teacher calling my name.

"SON GOHAN!" Mrs Andrew yelled. My head shot up as I looked at her. "Will you please solve problem 4?"

Elementary

Junior and Goten were coloring on their desk while the rest of the kids played with blocks and stuff. Goten was having a great time while Junior wasn't having fun.

"Can I have that red crayon?" Goten asked as he leaned over Junior. He sighed, rolled his eyes, and handed the crayon to Goten. Noticing the look on Junior, Goten put his arm over his shoulder. "What's the matter Junior? You miss daddy?" Junior shrugged. "You bored?" He nodded.

"I wanna have a spar or something." Junior mumbled. "Not color. I wanna find the dragonballs, go on an adventure." Goten nodded in agreement.

"I know. But daddy said just act like them." Goten pointed to the rest of the kids. "Dad said that after school, we can have a lot more fun." Junior was silent before nodding.

High School

The day's almost over and all I have to go through is 8th period, which is Gym. I'm afraid that I'll show too much of my body. I slam my gym locker shut when I finished putting my gym clothes on, My orange and blue gi similar to my dad's. When I appeared out of the locker room, everyone looked at me with expressions. The girls looked at me like they just saw a hot guy, the boys looked at me with disbelief and jealousy.

"Damn brains, your ripped!" A student said. I chuckle nervously as I sat down. Immediately, several girls surrounded me and asked me a bunch of stuff.

"Are you single?" some girls asked. "Nice muscles! You're a hunk! Wanna..." I scoot away from the girls, but I ended up next to Videl. She looked at me with shock while I chuckle at her reaction.

"What? You're not drooling over me?" I smirk, making her growl and face the other way. The gym teacher made his way to the gymnasium while holding a clipboard.

"Today class, we're gonna learn martial arts." The gym teacher said. "First, we're gonna learn some stances and then the experienced fighters, will have a spar or two." At that point, Sharpener stood up with jealousy and anger written on his face.

"I challenge Son Gohan to a fight." Everyone, even myself, looked at him. The gym teacher turned his attention to me and sighed.

"What do you say Gohan?" I nod and started to walk away until Videl stopped me. She said that Sharpener was taught by her father, that I'll be easily defeated. I tried my best to not laugh and told her it was alright. Once again, she gave me a look before I made to the mat. Sharpener smirked as he got into a stance, similar to Mr Satan's.

"I'm gonna knock your brains out, brains." He taunted. I roll my eyes and just stood there.

"Aren't you gonna get into a stance?" Videl asked. I looked at her and let out a single laugh. Sharpener charged at me with a battle cry and swung. I easily caught his fist and lightly punched him in the chin. He wobbled for a bit before collapsing on the floor, out cold. Everyone looked in awe while I smirk. "How'd you do that?!" I replied to her by pointing to my gi.

"Train." I reply before sitting down. The gym teacher shook out of his expression and stared at me.

"You knocked him out with one punch! Amazing!" The gym teacher shouted in amazement. "Son Gohan you don't have to participate in this event. As a matter of fact, you can teach the experienced fighters on 'how to fight like you'." Me? Teach?

"I-I would love to but..." I was cut off when the teacher put a clipboard on my chest. He thanked me and told me to say the names on the list, minus Sharpener.

After gym and leaving the school, I waited for my kids to get out of the elementary school. I looked through the door to notice Mrs. Martinez and her class exiting the school. I grinned and made my way to the entrance to be greeted by Junior and Goten. They jumped on me as I laugh, finally happy to see them.

"How was school dad?" They both asked me while smiling.

"I should be asking you that too." I laugh. We walk a couple of blocks before calling Nimbus and taking us home. While flying, they told me about how their day at school went and how much fun they had. So when I told them my story, they laughed at a certain part.

"So than he challenged and I beat him with one punch. He was knocked out for 45 minutes!" They laugh when I told them the story the second time.

"Did everyone pee their pants when they saw that?" Goten asked as he still laughed.

"You could say that." I reply, making him laugh harder as he turned red. Junior chuckled but stopped when he tried to calm Goten down. Once it went quiet, we landed near the house and settled inside. The first day of school wasn't bad, but then again, it was only the first day. Chuckling at that statement, I turned on the TV as my kids sat next to me.

"Put on our favorite show!" They pouted. I playfully rolled my eyes and clicked on the news. What surprised me was that Bulma was on with Trunks by her side. Junior pointed to the lavender haired boy.

"That's the jerk who I ran into in the city!" He pointed. I look at the TV before handing them the remote. They immediately clicked away from the news and put on cartoons. I sat there for a moment before stretching and scratching my head. Like I said before, it was only the first day.

Author: I hope you liked that chapter and I know it was rushed. But, I'm still trying to think some new ideas so the story might be updated in a week or two. Till then, bye!
