Chapter 9: Sparks Fly

~~~~ On To the Story! ~~~~

"Gohan.. wake up... Gohan! Wake up!... GOHAN!" Videl screamed. Gohan just turned over in his bed.

Videl, annoyed thought of how to wake up the sleeping boy.

'Little Brother.' She remembered him mentioning that he had a little brother. Videl figured that's who woke him up in the morning. How would a little boy manage to wake up Gohan. Videl did the only thing she could think of a little kid doing.

She jumped on top of him screaming for him to wake up. A few students poked their heads in the room to see what was going on.

"Goten..." Gohan muttered in his sleep. "Get offa me."

What else could wake Gohan up if that hadn't worked? Still sitting on him Videl looked down at his face before smirking.

"Gohan if you don't get up you won't be able to eat. You're going to be late to breakfast and all the food is going to be gone." she said.

Gohan's eyes snapped open. He looked up at Videl who had a wicked smile on her face.

"You are impossible to wake up you know that."

Gohan's face burned and he averted his gaze. That's when Videl realized she was still sitting on top of him and as quickly as she could jumped off with a blush of her own.

"Sorry." she said quickly. "I couldn't wake you up and... and... I figured your little brother usually woke you up... So I...!"

Gohan sat up in his bed and wiped away the sleep from his eyes. He looked over at the door to see that almost everyone in his class was looking in the room. Videl followed his eyes and crossed her arms and frowned.

'Oh great.' she thought. "Just get out of bed and hurry up would you." she muttered to Gohan before pushing threw the crowd.

Gohan looked at the crowd making them all walk away from the door quickly. He shut it and stretched. He pulled off his pajamas and slipped into clean gi. The heat in his face had yet to waver, and a small smile threateningly pulled at the corners of his mouth.

He opened his door and stepped out and as he walked down the hall he ignored the looks he was receiving.

'What is today?' Gohan found himself wondering. It was Wednesday which meant he only had one.. two...four days left here. And so far, this experience was turning out better then he thought it would. He put his hands behind his head as he walked down the halls with some of the other students. They whispered and chatted quietly think Gohan wouldn't be able to hear anything they were saying.

"Did you see?"

"No what was it?"

"Videl was on top of Gohan this morning."

"No way! So she slept with him?"

"That's what everyone thinks. But she said she was just trying to wake him up."

"Maybe she exhausted him last night."

Gohan ducked his head as his face felt like it was on fire. He ran down the halls in barely human speeds trying to get away from the gossip. The students watched him confused before returning to their gossip.


"Why didn't you tell me?" Erasa exclaimed. "Why did I only get to hear threw Lillia gossiping huh?"

"What are you talking about?" Videl asked taking a seat at the diner table.

"I can't believe you actually went that far with him so soon!" Erasa giggled.

"What are you talking about?" Videl asked again this time a little louder.

"You know.." Erasa looked to her side before leaning in and whispering. "Sleeping with Gohan."

"WHAT?" Videl shrieked. "No! No! No! I never did that!"

"Well you might want to tell that to everyone else." Erasa said motioning with her head down the tabled.

The other students were whispering and glancing over at her before quickly looking away. Videl's mouth fell open.

Gohan waked into the dinning hall with his head down. He quickly took a seat. I rested him head on the table not wanting to look at anyone.

"Hey Gohan how was it?" a boy from his class asked.

"How was what?"

"You know." he said nodding his head not to discreetly toward Videl.

"I.. I..." Gohan stuttered making the boy smile.

"You two aren't official are you?" he asked.

"No! But I didn't.."

"I'm gonna get me some of that." he said with a smirk, looking at Videl licking his lips.

Gohan's blood started to boil.

"I hope you don't mind Gohan, but that's just they way things work. You wait until you know the girl has slept with someone lesser then yourself before you make your move. Something you country folk don't get."

Gohan reached slowly across the table, grabbed the jock by the collar of his shirt, and pulled him onto the table. All eyes were on them. Gohan glared coldly at the boy.

"First off," Gohan roared. "I didn't sleep with her! Second like hell I would let you do that?"

"Okay man! J-Just let me go!" the jock said slightly terrified.

Gohan growled before dropping the boy's shirt and slumping back into his chair. That's when the whispering started again.

"Did you see that?"

"I didn't think Gohan had it in him to explode on someone like that."

"Did you hear what they said?"

Gohan grumbled under his breath and sunk further into his seat.

"Good morning everyone!" Hercule said entering the room.

'At least dad didn't hear about all this.' Videl thought with a sigh. 'I hope they all got the point now that Gohan went off. I just wonder what that kid said to make him explode like that. He doesn't seem the type to do that.'

Videl looked down the table at the pink faced Gohan, then to the jock across from him. Something didn't seem right.


"Gohan wait!" Videl called.

With breakfast over and an hour before training began, Gohan wanted to get away from everyone.

"Gohan!" Videl said as she caught up to him. "What happened back there?"

Gohan shook his head not wanting to tell her.

"Gohan."

He sighed. If he didn't tell her she would never leave him alone about it or she would just hear about it from someone else and you never know how twisted it could get before then.

"He.. They all.." Gohan started. He sighed again. "I don't understand how they all got that idea in their head."

"I know what you mean but still even then he must have said something worse."

"He.. He said.."

"Yeah?"

"He said he was going to get some of that and something about waiting until a girl slept with someone lesser. I just.. didn't like him talking about you like that." Gohan said looking down at the floor.

"Well, let's just put this little rumor behind us. I mean, we both know its not true." Videl said.

"Agreed."

"Before anyone comes around Gohan," Videl said.

"Yeah?"

"Thank you." she said getting on her tippy toes to give him a peck on the cheek.

Gohan turned red and watched as Videl walked off with his mouth open. He pinched himself. Nope not dreaming definitely awake.


"So." Erasa said. "Did you find out why Gohan yelled earlier?"

"He was just defending the truth." Videl said.

"Wouldn't it have been funny if your dad walked in right as he said that?" Erasa asked with a giggle.

"Yeah right!" Videl said. "So far, I can tell this day is going to be shitty." she finished annoyed.

"Look on the bright side."

"What bright side?"

"Well, I don't really know to be honest," Erasa said slowly.

Videl sighed. "Oh course you don't. Who started this rumor anyway?"

"Huh? I'm not sure why?"

"Were going to get to the bottom of this."

The rest of the hour, Erasa and Videl tracked down the origins of the rumor that had been spread threw the students this morning.

"Who told you?"

"Well.. uh.. Sharpner told me." a jock said slowly.

Videl growled and stormed off.

Sharpner was currently sitting in in a chair with a group of people around him.

"Sharpner!" Videl yelled. "What the hell is you deal?"

"Why babe. I don't know what you talking about." he said innocently.

"You know what I'm talking about." Videl said threw gritted teeth. "Why did you start that rumor?"

Sharpner put his hands up in front of him. "I.. uh..."

"If my dad heard this rumor, or Gohan finds out it was you that started it, you are in deep shit you know that? So as a 'friend' I suggest you fix it!" she said before marching off.

"Now look what you did Sharpner." Erasa said. "You may have gotten rid of all of the progress they've made." she finished with a pout.

Sharpner gulped but was smiling on the inside. In truth that's just what he wanted. If he couldn't have Videl no one would and Gohan was starting to get closer to her then Sharpner thought comfortable.


"Yoo-Hoo!" Mr. T called from down the hall. "Gohan!"

Gohan turned to see Mr. T waving at him frantically. When he walked over and asked him what was wrong, he only got a grin.

"It's story time my boy." Mr. T said.

"But I only have a few minutes left." Gohan said. "I have to be at the gym."

"Please." Mr. T said giving Gohan puppy dog eyes.

"Alright." Gohan said.

"Start from the beginning." Mr. T said excitedly.

"Alright. Well, my dad met Bulma when he was twelve. Bulma was looking for the dragonballs so she could make a wish. My dad was living alone since his grandpa died and wasn't use to having other people around." Gohan started remembering what Bulma and his dad had told him about.

'He thought I was a witch.' Bulma said laughing.

'Hey!' Goku said. 'I wasn't use to people much less capsules.'

"He invited her into his home and she saw he had a dragonball. She got him to join her."

"That sounds like when Bulma got Son Goku to search with her.." Mr. T said looking up at Gohan. "It wouldn't happen to be the same Bulma would it? Bulma Briefs."

"Well yeah." Gohan said. "Bulma is a family friend."

"Well son you better get to the gym." Mr. T said. "You're late and I wouldn't want to know what happens when you late."

"Thanks Mr. T." Gohan said before turning and high tailing it to the gym. Maybe he could seek in without anyone noticing.

'I-It can't be that Gohan is related to Son Goku could it?' Mr. T thought. "No. It can't be. I won't believe it until I get some hard evidence."


Gohan slipped into the gym and walked quickly over to the students.

"What have I missed?" he whispered to Videl.

"Where the hell have you been?" she asked quietly.

"Mr. T wanted story time." Gohan replied with a smile.

"You're lucky you only missed his lecture." Videl said.

"And now let's begin with a small warm up before we break off into stations. First three laps around the track, then fifty push-ups, fifty lunges, one hundred crunches, then meet in the center of the track."

Some students gasped at the length of the 'warm-up'. While others shrugged it off trying to look cool or the fact that this was like play time for them.

"GO!" Hercule shouted.

The students look of toward the track. Gohan jogged at the pace Videl was running.

"This is nothing to you isn't it." she said.

"Not really." he said. "You'll see my training later on in the field trip."

"What do you mean by that?" she asked curiously.

"Well, Bulma's husband is entering in the Tournament, so he's going to want to spar a few times. And My dad won't be there, so I'll be... asked to spar."

"Oh. I see." Videl said. "Well if you ever get some free time, you still have to teach me hoe to fly."

"Yeah. Couldn't forget that." Gohan said with a grin.

"Hey babe." Sharpner said pulling up to Videl's other side. "Why don't you run with me. I'm sure you'd like to pick p the pace a little bit more."

"Really Sharpner, after what you pulled, I don't really want to even talk to you."

"What? What do you mean?" Gohan asked earning a fearful look from Sharpner.

"Nothing! Nothing!" Sharpner said raising his hands in front oh him defensively before pulling ahead.

"What was that all about?" Gohan asked.

"If I tell you you can't freak out okay." Videl said glancing up at Gohan who was looking down at her curiously.

"Sharpner.. Was the one that started that rumor." Videl said.

Gohan looked from her to Sharpner back to her.

"Sharpner!" Gohan yelled and sped up to catch the no good liar.

"Gohan that's considered freaking out!" Videl called after him.

Sharpner looked back when he heard Videl yell at Gohan and a girly shriek emitted from him as he saw Gohan take off in his direction. Sharpner picked up his pace until he was sprinting. It didn't matter to Gohan though.

"I can't believe you Sharpner!" Gohan said as he caught up with Sharpner and tackled him.

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" Sharpner said.

"Tell them all the truth." Gohan said.

The other students slowed to a stop and listened. Sharpner looked up at them all frantically.

"Anything you heard about Videl and Gohan," he started. "It was all a lie!" He said struggling against Gohan who after Sharpner had told everyone let go.

Sharpner jumped to his feet and backed away

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry." Sharpner said.

"I won't freak out you say." Videl said walking up next to Gohan who grinned sheepishly.

"Alright now that you have all finally finished your warm-up it's time to start the really hard stuff." Hercule said. "Now first we need to make sure you all have a good form. Everyone line up and get into your stance."

He went down the row occasionally telling students things like, they were to low and that they could lose balance easier because of it and, there were holes in their defense and to fix that they needed to lower their arms a bit. He passed by all the students that trained with him at the school of Martial arts. People like Sharpner and Videl, who all had the same stance. A stance for a fighter that was six feet tall and weighed two hundred pounds or more. Hercule stepped in front of Gohan. Gohan had slid down into his stance and it impressed Hercule. His feet were at a perfect distance from is body and as far as he could tell there were no holes in it either. Hercule grudgingly gave him the thumbs up.

"Now that you all have fixed your stances, it's time for some sparring."


"Excuse me sir, but lunch is served." George said stiffly.

Hercule waved him off and turned to face the class. He smiled and watched the one one one matches slowly start to finish up. There was only one left actually.

"You know, I think they all got your point at breakfast." Videl said as she threw a punch at Gohan who easily dodged again. "You had to go and do that?"

"What Sharpner deserved it." Gohan said.

"Would you stop fooling around and actually try!" Videl shouted.

Gohan stopped. "Well, if you really want me to I guess I could."

Videl charged and threw a punch. Gohan ducked under her arm and turned so he was facing her back. Before Videl even knew it she was in full nelson hold.

"How did you?"

"It was pretty easy." Gohan said.

"Would you let go of me?" Videl said thrashing trying to get out.

"Not until you say it." he said with a grin.

Videl thrashed and kicked harder before sighing. "Fine. Mercy." she mumbled.

Gohan let go and Hercule cleared his throat.


Happy that this morning's chaos was finally over, Gohan sat contently at the table patting his now full stomach. He smiled because he didn't hear any untrue rumors floating around and on the inside he was smirking thinking no one would think to spread fake rumors about him again.

Today was taking a turn for the better.

"Yoo-Hoo! Gohan!"

Gohan turned to see Erasa in her bikini with Sharpner next to him.

"Mr. Hercule had to go work on some business again!" she said cheerily. "Let's go to the pool!"

"P-Pool?" Gohan stuttered.

"Yeah hurry up nerd-boy and go get changed." Sharpner said roughly. "You are coming."

'Great! Just Great!' Gohan thought as he got out of his chair.

"We'll meet you there!" Erasa said before dragging Sharpner by the arm off toward the pool area.


"Man." Gohan muttered as he pulled off his gi. "Why does there have to be a pool? Why not thought. You're one of the wealthiest people of the world. Why not have your own indoor pool. Why does this surprise me even? Bulma has a pool." He mumbled exasperatedly. "But then again I'm only around family and friends there. This is crazy."

He slumped down the hallways muttering and cursing. People looked at him like he was crazy. They heard him saying things like 'Dende I hate you' and that he was going to make a visit to his friend when this was all over with.

Gohan walked in to the pool area and saw that there weren't all that many students there. He stood there hesitantly there for a few minuted before Erasa notice he was there.

"What are you waiting for Gohan permission? Take the tee shirt off and get in here. The waters great."

Gohan smiled sheepishly before walking over to a chair. He slowly pulled off the tee- shirt and he heard the gasps. There was no avoiding it.

~~~ End! ~~~

O_o Oh my Dende what is it? Okay yeah so this chapter was inspired by a rumor floating around at my school. It is quiet humorous to me because I am not a part of it and the guy jumped up in the middle of lunch and screamed "I did not have sex with her!" ((remaining anonymous)) "And like I'd ever let you do that shit to her?" It was funny because it was like dead silent after that xD

hahahahah it makes me giggle even thinking about it.

Vegeta: Stop your mumbling!

Trunks: I promised mommy I wouldn't hit women.

Goten, Vegeta, Trunks: GET TO WORK WOMAN!

Goten: Please.
