A/N: Chapter Nine was a killer as far as writing, I hope this one won't be.
Another Party
Gohan was outside training when KRO came over.
KRO asks "So when are you heading over to Bulma's?"
Gohan replies, "After mom gets done with the dishes from lunch."
KRO asks, "Is it okay my parents and I head up before you guys?"
Gohan says, "It should be fine. Now I have a question. Why did you come all this way to ask when you could have called?"
KRO replies "I did call your dad said you were out training so I said that I would just come down."
Gohan remarks, "I see. Well do you want to train with me or are you heading back?"
KRO laughs, "Naw, I'm still hurting from that beating you gave me yesterday; I'm going to head back."
Gohan also laughs, "Okay see you later."
KRO takes to the air and leaves.
Gohan walks back to the house and goes inside.
Gohan asks ChiChi "Is there anything I can do to help out?"
ChiChi replies, "No I got it son, Goku said that KRO was on his way down to talk to you about something."
Gohan responds, "I just talked with KRO and he is on his way back home."
Chichi asks, "What did he want?"
Gohan replies, "Oh, he just wanted to know if it would be okay for his family to head over to Bulma's without us."
ChiChi asks, "Did you say it would be okay?"
Gohan shrugs "Well yeah, I said it was okay."
ChiChi responds "Okay then no harm done. Why aren't you still training? I figured you would train since I gave you a break from studying."
Gohan replies, "I got to thinking about yesterday with Brock holding Videl captive after the stunt he pulled last week with Erasa."
ChiChi says "Sounds like something you should talk to you father about he's playing with Goten in his room."
Gohan responds, "Okay I'll go talk to him."
Gohan walks towards Goten's room and knocks on the open door.
Goku and Goten look up and say "Hey Gohan."
Gohan replies "Hey. Um dad can we talk about something maybe outside?"
Goku says "Sure thing" he turns his attention to Goten "Finish building the tower I'll be back in a little bit."
Goten replies "Okay daddy."
Goku gets up and walks over to the door. He gestures for Gohan to lead the way.
Gohan heads outside.
Goku closes the door and asks, "What did you want to talk about?"
Gohan says, "Well the incident with Brock yesterday I've never felt that kind of anger before. I mean if Videl hadn't said anything to stop me I probably would have killed him."
Goku replies, "You would have killed him being at Super Saiyan Two if she hadn't said anything."
Gohan nearly shouts, "I was at the second level?"
Goku nods "Before I could say anything to you to keep you calm you had snapped to the second level and was on top of him I'm surprised Videl got thru to you."
Gohan says, "Is it logical for me to feel that much anger since we had just got together."
Goku replies, "Well there could be a few possible reasons either we Saiyan men are over protective of our women, Videl is your destined life partner, or both of those reasons."
Gohan shove his hands in his pockets "Do you really think she could be my life partner?"
Goku says, "Time will only tell but what do your feelings tell you?"
Gohan thinks for a while and says, "I want her to be, I care for her more than the rest of my friends." He pauses for a little bit "Hercule told me something about Videl when I went to talk to him in private. He told me Videl was looking for me ever since the Cell Games ended because she was sure I was the true victor."
Goku responds, "That is interesting, my suggestion would be to hang on to her."
ChiChi comes out with Goten and says, "We're ready to go how about you two."
Goku looks at Gohan as if questioning him.
Gohan nods.
Goku replies "Yeah were ready."
ChiChi calls nimbus for herself.
Gohan, Goten, and Goku take to the air.
As soon as nimbus got there, they all left.
*Bulma's*
Goku and his family walk in and are greeted by their friends.
Gohan looks around and sees that Sharpner and Anthony made it along with Robert.
He goes over to talk with them.
Sharpner says "Hey how you doing?"
Gohan sighs, "I'm still upset about Brock well kissing Videl and holding her captive."
Anthony replies "Dude if another guy kissed my girl I would have flipped just like you did just without my hair changing color."
Gohan says, "By the way I told you wrong yesterday I thought I was at the first level of Super Saiyan but dad told me earlier before we came over that I was actually at the second level of Super Saiyan."
Sharpner asks, "Would you have killed Brock for doing it?"
Gohan replies, "I would have if Videl hadn't of said anything."
*Doorbell rings*
Bulma shouts "These teenagers ringing the doorbell no one in our group rings the doorbell."
Bulma answers the door.
It was Videl, Kat, Erasa, and Angela.
Bulma tells them "Come in, you don't need to ring the doorbell."
The girls work their way thru the small crowd to the guys.
Videl gives Gohan a hug.
Gohan hugs her back and kisses her on the forehead.
Videl also give him a kiss on the cheek.
Erasa gives Sharpner a hug.
Videl says, "That is new what's up?"
Erasa replies, "We were talking during the tournament and realized that we liked each other."
Gohan says "That's awesome you two."
KRO shows up and asks, "What's awesome?"
Sharpner says, "We had just told everyone that Erasa and I are a couple now."
KRO responds, "That is awesome."
Bulma came up to them and says "Great you're all here I want you to come with me."
KRO asks "Why?"
Bulma smiles "Have something to give you kids."
The teens shrug and follow Bulma.
They were going down a hall when Kats asks, "Just exactly where are we going?"
KRO grins, "We're going to the lab."
Bulma asks "Gohan do you want to do the honors?"
Gohan sighs, walks up to the keypad, and punches in the code.
Erasa asks, "You know the code Gohan?"
Bulma responds, "I'd hope so he is my godson after all and he sometimes comes over to tinker."
Anthony retorts, "I just thought he knew you!"
Bulma asks, "You're new to the group aren't you?"
Anthony responds, "Yes Ma'am."
Bulma asks, "What do you know?"
Anthony answers, "I know Gohan is half alien, he is the Super Soldier, He beat Cell, He knows you, he's the smartest kid in school, his dad is an alien called a Saiyan, and he has alien friends."
Bulma replies, "You know the basics I'll give you that, but the rest of you need to fill him in on other things."
The group responds "Yes Ma'am."
The door opens and they all walk in.
Bulma walks over to a table and says "Welcome to my personal lab."
Gohan and KRO stand there as all the other teens wonder around.
Bulma laughs in spite herself at their reactions to the lab "Never gets old."
After letting, the teens look around Bulma places two fingers in her mouth and whistles.
Gohan and KRO cover their ears.
The teens look in Bulma's direction.
Bulma says "Come over here to the table I have something for you."
All nine teens walk over to the table.
The teens see that there are watches and bracelets sitting on the table.
Unimpressed Sharpner states, "They look like regular watches and bracelets."
Videl agrees, "I was getting ready to say the same thing."
Bulma laughs, "Because that is the idea so they won't draw attention." Points to two watches "These two are Gohan and Videl's watches they have a communicator to the police and Gohan's houses the mechanism that allows him to change into the Super Soldier uniform." She points to the rest of them "Videl's along with the rest of the watches and bracelets will signal Gohan's watch if you're in danger you activate it by giving the keyword Saiyaman."
Gohan questions "Saiyaman? Sounds like something I would come up with like a super hero name or rather."
Bulma responds "That is why I picked it is because it does sound like something you would come up with."
KRO asks, "How did you come up with that, Saiyaman?"
Bulma responds, "By combining the words Saiyan and Human."
KRO give a look that said 'oh' "Gotcha that makes sense."
Bulma says, "Since I also know that most of you are also fighters, all the watches will show the location of another watch or bracelet that has activated the signal but Gohan's watch will be signaled first."
Videl asks "Why have them we all have most of our classes with Gohan?"
Angela says, "Speak for yourself, Erasa and I only have three classes with everyone."
Kat also says "I only have four classes with everyone."
Videl asks Anthony "What classes do you have with us?"
Anthony responds "The only class I don't have is third hour I have world geography I think you guys have history."
Erasa remarks, "I have world geography that period."
Angela stated, "I have home make that hour."
Sharpner shrugs "Wood work for me."
KRO comments, "I don't see you as an axe wielding person."
Gohan responds with a raised eyebrow "KRO, you're thinking lumberjack it is different from wood work."
Videl asks, "What if Gohan is the one in danger what would he do?"
Bulma replies "Well Gohan's opponent would have to be very powerful stronger than him even. That would call for getting the rest of the gang involved because that person or thing could destroy the world."
Videl also asks, "What if it was a group of regular humans and they sneak up on Gohan?"
Bulma responds, "It shouldn't happen as long as Gohan has his guard up."
Videl challenges, "Let's say he didn't have his guard up…"
Gohan jumps in "Okay enough 'What If' scenarios involving me, I can take care of myself." He turns to Bulma "What is the key word for deactivating the signal?"
Bulma replies, "It's still Saiyaman but it has to be said by you."
Gohan nods "I see."
Kat picks up one of the bracelets and holds it in her hand still being skeptical "How do you know that they work?"
Bulma responds, "Because I have tested them."
Kat asks, "How did you turn it off if it can only be turned off by Gohan?"
Bulma laughs, "I have the override keywords."
Kat give her a weird look "Which is?"
Bulma answers "Blue Haired Genius."
Gohan shakes his head and says "Figures."
Gohan takes off his current watch, places it on the table, picks up the new watch, and fastens it onto his wrist.
Videl does the same of trading her old communicator for the new one.
The rest of the teens follow suit.
Kat, Erasa, and Angela put on bracelets and the remaining guys put on watches.
Bulma says, "Now let's get out of here and get back to the party."
The teens follow Bulma back to the door, she punches in the code, and they leave the lab.
Upon returning, they were stopped by Master Roshi.
Master Roshi says "Howdy. How are you?"
Sharpner asks "Dude who is the old man?"
Master Roshi responds, "Watch who you are calling 'old man', I am Master Roshi teacher of the Turtle Fighting Style creator of the Kamehameha Wave."
Being skeptical Videl says, "I read about Master Roshi he lived over three hundred years ago. So there is no way you can be him besides you look too old and frail to be a martial arts master."
KRO says, "I had to fight him a few weeks ago I barely go three hits off on him so he is defiantly a martial arts master."
Robert declared, "Okay but that doesn't say that he is Master Roshi."
Master Roshi pulls out his wallet, then pulls out his ID and shows it to them "Here is my ID."
Videl takes the ID and studies it for a couple minutes then hands it back "Well I see it but I still don't believe it."
Gohan reassures, "He really is Master Roshi"
Erasa asks, "What is a Kamehameha Wave?"
Master Roshi grins, "Well Gohan here can tell you that."
All Gohan's friends besides KRO look at Gohan all at the same time.
Gohan swallows and replies, "Well, the Kamehameha Wave is a powerful KI blast."
Angela asks, "What is KI?"
Gohan responds, "KI is energy."
Kat asks, "What does the Kamehameha Wave look like?"
Master Roshi responds, "It would be too dangerous to demonstrate it here in the city."
Gohan says, "Well dad and I could demonstrate in the air by one of us firing the blast and the other either blocks it or reflects it into space."
Master Roshi shakes his head 'no' "No I want them to be able to get a good look at it and be able to grasp how strong it can be."
Bulma suggests, "We can all travel to your place."
Master Roshi freaks "Just so my house can get flooded again, Krillin is always flooding the house when he practices the Kamehameha Wave. No offense to Gohan or Goku but if they were to do a Kamehameha Wave they would send my house out to sea."
Bulma says, "Maybe the guys know a few places."
Gohan says, "I have an idea but I would have to ask Dad and Vegeta if they were okay with revisiting an old battle ground."
Bulma asks, "Which one are you thinking of, there are several battle grounds?"
Gohan crosses his arms "I was thinking of Gizard Wasteland the rocky area Dad and Vegeta fought at when Vegeta first came to Earth."
Bulma responds "How about you go asks them and I will get everyone's attention."
Gohan gives Videl a hug and goes looking for his dad and Vegeta.
Bulma gets up on a chair and announces, "Can I have everyone's attention please…"
Everyone gets quiet and looks in her direction.
She continues, "I am planning a field trip for all of us, Gohan's friends were curious about what an energy attack looks like. So I was thinking that we could put on a show for them."
Some of the Z fighters shrugged and nodded whereas others groan out of frustration.
Gohan found his dad and Vegeta sitting at a table together and was kind of surprised that they were having a civil conversation. He clears his throat to get their attention.
Vegeta snaps "What do you want brat?"
Goku asks, "What's up Gohan?"
Gohan takes a deep breath and lets it out "I was wondering for the location for our 'fieldtrip' if it would be okay for it to be Gizard Wasteland where you two fought."
Goku responds, "That would be a good area for the exercise."
Vegeta also responds, "I honestly don't know why that woman volunteers us to do things but I don't see why we can't go to the battle ground."
Gohan says "Thanks I let Bulma know."
He leaves and goes to where Bulma is.
He approaches Bulma and says, "Dad and Vegeta said it was ok."
Bulma grins, "That is awesome."
Bulma asks Videl "Did you bring your jet copter, and how many people can you carry in it?"
Videl answers, "I always carry my jet copter and I can carry nine people in it not counting me."
Bulma responds, "I can carry all the other 'non fliers' in one of my vehicles."
Videl replies "Sounds like that would work."
Bulma announces, "Hey everybody, we have a location which we will follow Goku and Vegeta to and those that don't fly will ride in a vehicle."
Everybody nods in agreement.
Bulma heads outside and everyone follows her.
Videl pulls out her jet copter capsule out and de-capsulized it.
Bulma pulls out a capsule clicks the button, and de-capsulized it revealing a van like plane.
Bulma opens the back door.
Krillin was talking with Eighteen, he asks "You're not going to fly babe?"
Eighteen give him a look "Someone has to keep an eye on the baby."
Krillin replies "Oh, okay then."
Videl over hears this conversation and asks Gohan "Who all can fly in your group?"
Gohan responds "Pretty much all the fighters."
Videl asks, "What were you planning to do?"
Gohan replies, "Oh me, I was planning to fly with Dad."
Videl responds "I understand." She turns to KRO "Let me guess you're going to fly to."
KRO boasts, "Of course I am, I enjoy flying."
Videl remarks, "Well I guess I'll see you at the site."
Videl climbs into her jet copter along with Sharpner, Anthony, Robert, Erasa, Kat, and Angela.
After everyone was loaded into the vehicles, and vehicles started Bulma gave the signal.
Goku, Vegeta, and Gohan take to the air followed by the rest of the fighters.
Once in they were in the air the vehicles took to the air.
They all took off.
(With Videl)
Sharpner notices the pattern that the Z fighters were flying in and mentions, "They look as if they fly by rank or something."
Videl asks, "What do you mean?"
Sharpner points out "Well Goku is flying more ahead of Gohan and Vegeta, Gohan and Vegeta are probably around the same power level but Vegeta still flies slightly more ahead of Gohan and they are the main fighters being of Saiyan blood…"
Anthony retorts "Your telling me that Vegeta is a Saiyan?!"
Sharpner responds "Yes he is, try to keep up you might learn a few things. Now in the next row you have Piccolo who is a Namek and he flies more ahead of Krillin, Tien, Chiaotzu, and Yamcha who are all humans following them are KRO, Goten, and Trunks. As we know, KRO is human but Goten and Trunks are half Saiyans like Gohan. I figure they fly in the back since they haven't earned a place because they haven't been involved in any actual fighting."
(Meanwhile with Gohan)
Krillin asks, "Hey Gohan, Do you think you'll have any more trouble out of that Brock kid since you nearly took his head off?"
Gohan responds, "I don't know, I hope not. To be honest I think I will still have trouble."
Tien asks, "What happened?"
Krillin informs him "Yesterday, Gohan and KRO had that tournament at their school. Gohan and KRO come in first and second place as predicted. After the tournament for some reason Videl had to go back to the arena to get something, anyways Brock, the kid that has been bullying Gohan, takes Videl hostage, words are exchanged even Hercule tried to negotiate, he's Videl's dad if you remember him from the Cell Games, negotiations fail and Brock kisses Videl. Gohan snaps to Super Saiyan Two and takes him down if Videl hadn't said anything Gohan would have killed him."
Tien asks "Why would have he killed the kid?"
Krillin replies "Videl is Gohan's girlfriend."
Gohan says, "Thing is I was too mad to realize I was powered up to the second level."
Vegeta criticizes "If I were you I would have made an example of him to anyone that touches my woman without my permission. Like when your woman's father decided to look at my woman through our windows."
Gohan surmises, "Let me guess the only reason Hercule is alive is because Bulma told you not to kill him."
Vegeta baks, "Of course the woman told me not to kill him."
Gohan says, "That is the thing if Videl hadn't said anything I would have killed him."
Vegeta asks, "Do you know why that is?"
Gohan responds "No what?"
Vegeta replies "She is your life partner. How dull are you?"
Gohan complains, "I'm not dull."
Vegeta shouts, "If you weren't dull then you would have realized that on your own!"
Vegeta take off on ahead of the group.
The rest of the Z fighters pick up speed.
(With Videl)
Videl says "They just picked up speed I wonder if we're getting close."
She pulls her jet copter into a higher gear.
*Gizard Wasteland*
The Z fighters all land, Bulma and Videl land their vehicles.
Everyone unloaded the vehicles.
Goku asks Bulma "I know you want us to show them what an energy attack looks like but what specifically were you looking for?"
Bulma replies, "Well I was thinking a regular basic attack and your signature move."
Goku reciprocates "Okay I'll let everyone know."
Bulma turns to Eighteen and asks, "Eighteen, are you going to join them in the demonstration I'll watch Marron for you."
Eighteen shrugs "I guess since you ask so nicely." She hands Bulma Marron and goes to join her husband.
Erasa asks, "Why is her name Eighteen?"
Bulma answers "She was an android or cyborg originally created to kill Goku."
Kat asks, "If she was created to kill Goku then why does she hang with all of you?"
Bulma responds, "She is married to Goku's best friend, Krillin and had this little girl with him."
Videl remarks, "She started out human didn't she."
Bulma smiles "Bingo you hit that on the nose."
Bulma turns her attention to the Z fighters "Who is willing to demonstrate a basic energy attack?"
Goten and Trunks Raise their hands and say at the same time "We can do it!"
Anthony exclaims, "No way can a couple of kids do it!"
KRO remarks "Don't doubt these kids they can do everything the adults do."
Bulma says, "Go ahead you two show these teenagers what your made of."
Goten and Trunks move to the front of the group.
The take a stance hold their hands out and aim at a spire of rock.
A yellow-orange ball of light came out of their hands, shot out, and hit the spire of rock.
There were two overlapping craters in the side of the spire.
Robert asks, "So that is a regular energy attack?"
Gohan responds, "That is what a basic attack looks like."
Master Roshi comes up and remarks, "Before these guys show you their signature moves, let me show these kids how the Kamehameha Wave is supposed to look."
Bulma didn't argue.
Master Roshi takes off his shirt and takes his stance.
Sharpner asks, "Why did the old man take his shirt off?"
Bulma tells him "Shh! Just watch."
Master Roshi powered up he gained a lot of muscle mass and grew in size.
Master Roshi makes an arm sweeping motion "Ka…"
Another arm sweeping motion "Me…"
Another arm sweeping motion "Ha…"
He pulls his hands to the right side cupped together "Me…"
He thrusts his hands forward aiming for the spire of rock in front of him shouting "HA!"
A blue light came from his hands and hurls thru the air hitting the spire and destroying it.
Master Roshi powers down, puts his shirt back on, and remarks, "That is my Kamehameha Wave."
Bulma affectionately calls to Vegeta "Vegeta dear, do you want to demonstrate your attack before Goku demonstrates his version of the Kamehameha Wave?"
Vegeta baks, "Why should I? It's not like I'm teaching them the attack."
Bulma bribes him "I'll give you three days uninterrupted training, I'll only bug you for meals."
Vegeta rises in the air "As long as I get to come to meals when I feel like it."
Bulma replies "Deal."
Everyone looks up in wonder as to what attack Vegeta would demonstrate.
Vegeta takes his stance, he brings up his hands up near his ear and powers up.
A purple aura starts to surround Vegeta as a purple ball of light begins to form in his hands.
He thrusts his hands forward towards another spire of rock shouting "Galick Gun!" the attack completely destroyed the spire.
Vegeta drops down to rejoin the group.
Anthony exclaims, "That was an awesome move!"
Videl says, "I'm curious as to the other version of the Kamehameha Wave."
Bulma turns to Goku and Gohan "Goku, Gohan you're up."
Goku and Gohan move to the front of the group.
They take their stances with their hands cupped together to their right side.
They start to power up.
Goten jumps in taking the same stance as his dad and brother.
Goten quickly powers up.
The three Son men start the chant.
They chant "Ka…Me…Ha…Me…"
They thrust their hands forward aiming at a spire of rock shouting "HA!"
The spire of rock is destroyed followed by several more spires of rock.
Sharpner exclaims, "Dude, that little kid was able to use the same attack as Goku and Gohan!"
KRO laughs "I'd hope so he is Gohan's little brother after all."
Krillin remarks "I suppose Eighteen and I will go next."
Krillin whispers in Eighteen's ear which attack to do.
Eighteen and Krillin take their stance in front of the group with their right hands raised above their heads and palms facing upward.
They power up and a large yellow disc appears in each of their hands.
They throw the disks toward a spire of rock shouting "Destructo Disk!"
The spire of rock was cut in two.
Anthony comments, "That was cool."
Sharpner says "Just like a table saw."
Piccolo walks up "I'll go next."
He takes his place in front of the group and takes his stance.
Piccolo brings his first two fingers to his forehead and powers up.
Videl comments, "He's not going to disappear is he."
Gohan smiles "No, he's not, he is just powering up for his attack."
Electricity can be seen around the tips of his fingers as well as a yellow and purple aura.
Piccolo flings his fingers forward shouting "Special Beam Cannon!" a beam with a spiral around it shot out toward the remains of the spire Krillin and Eighteen destroyed and drilled a hole clear thru it.
Robert remarks, "That's one way to kill someone."
Piccolo smirks "I have killed with that move."
Robert asks, "Who did you kill?"
Still smirking Piccolo replies, "You should ask Goku that question."
Robert walks over to Goku and asks, "Who did Piccolo kill with that move?"
Goku smiles and laughs "Me and my brother Raditz."
Sharpner exclaims "I thought Cell killed you!?"
Goku smiles "He did I've been killed twice, first by Piccolo, second by Cell, both times I sacrificed myself."
Robert asks "Then how are you alive?"
Goku says "The Dragonballs."
Gohan remarks "I would have sworn I told you guys that."
Videl comments "I think you only told me and KRO already knew."
Robert asks, "So that Dragonball Ms. Amanda had was real?"
Gohan nods his head 'yes'
Tien walks up "I guess I'll go next."
Bulma replies "Alright then."
Tien take to the air above the remains of the spire.
Tien positions his hands in a triangle form at chest level.
Tien powers up, then shouts "TRI-BEAM!"
A yellow beam shot down and destroyed the spire leaving a large hole in the ground.
Angela comments "My word that is a big hole."
Videl observed, "I notice that the hole is rectangular in shape."
Gohan tells her "Don't try to figure that one out I never could understand it myself."
Videl replies, "Okay, because I was about to ask you."
KRO comments "You mean with all your smarts that is something that has stumped you."
Gohan give him a look "Don't talk like you figured it out."
KRO grins.
Gohan retorts, "Okay smarty pants, what is your explanation of a rectangle hole?"
Tien comments, "I've got to hear this."
KRO clears his throat because he realized everyone was watching him, he explains "All his fingers touch except his pinkies and that creates an opening at the top of the triangle thus leaving room for a rectangular shape."
Tien chuckles "Nice try kid but all my fingers including pinkies touch." He holds his hand in position as if he were to perform the move again. "Come here and look for yourself."
KRO walks over and looks at Tien's hand placement and comments "Well darn there goes my theory."
Tien puts his hands down "Like I said nice try."
Chiaotzu walks up "I'll go next Tien."
Tien smiles "Okay Chiaotzu."
Chiaotzu takes his place in front of the group and hovers a few feet above the ground.
Chiaotzu powers up, holds his right arm out, and points out with his index finger towards a spire of rock.
Chiaotzu shouts "Dodon Ray!" a yellow beam shot from his finger and destroyed the rock spire.
Most of the teens exclaim "Whoa!"
Master Roshi comments "The Dodon Ray is the signature attack of the Crane School where Tien and Chiaotzu learned martial arts. The Dodon Ray is stronger that a regular Kamehameha Wave."
Anthony asks, "Can we see a duel?"
Master Roshi retorts "A duel! What kind of duel?"
Anthony shrugs "How about an energy attack duel."
Gohan tries to reason "That could be catastrophic. Most of us could destroy the planet with one energy blast."
Anthony raises an eyebrow "Then have to duel between the weaker members of the group because surly you're all not at the same power level."
Gohan sighs, "I still think it is a bad idea."
Vegeta scoffs "Why not do a duel we all have control of our powers well except for the kids they still need more training as well as your mutt friend. I know you have been helping him master energy attacks."
Videl asks KRO "Can you do energy attacks?"
KRO shrugs and kicks at the dirt "Yeah but I'm mediocre at it, I can do a basic energy attack fine because you just point and shoot, but something like the Kamehameha Wave I'm still shaky on, I mean Goten has better control than I do."
Sharpner retorts, "Wait Videl, you knew who Vegeta meant when he referred to him as mutt!"
Videl answers, "Yeah I knew, it's just a mean nickname that Vegeta gave him."
Sharpner asks KRO "So, how did you get a nickname like that?"
KRO looks at him seriously and remarks "I do not wish to disclose that information at this time."
Sharpner looks at Videl and Gohan "You guys know what it is don't you."
Gohan says "You remember that rule that KRO couldn't tell you guys any of my secrets? Well that same rule applies for KRO and his secrets just reverse the only thing is Videl is involved and she isn't permitted to tell unless given permission by KRO to tell."
Sharpner crosses his arms "Speaking of rules is KRO still bound by that rule or is he free to tell the rest of us stuff about you?"
Gohan replies, "He can tell you stuff since you guys know the major stuff."
KRO remarks, "I thought it was just Videl I could tell things."
Gohan responds, "I told you that before we ended up telling the rest of the group."
KRO replies, "Oh I see, so I can tell them stuff like the time you were kidnapped by Garlic Jr.'s henchmen because you had the Dragonball on your hat."
Gohan sighs, "Yes stuff like that."
Videl says, "I thought you were kidnapped by your uncle, Raditz."
Gohan sighs once more "I was technically kidnapped three times first time was by Garlic Jr.'s henchmen, the second time was by Raditz, and the third time by Piccolo."
Anthony remarks "Gees Gohan you got kidnapped a lot as a kid."
Gohan remarks, "I guess so, but I want to get back on topic."
Sharpner asks "Which topic we've covered a few in this discussion?"
Gohan replies, "Whether or not we will do an energy duel."
Sharpner reminds, "Well you're the one that thought it would be a bad idea."
Gohan sighs, "But Vegeta did make a valid point. Let's put it up to a vote amongst you guys, only KRO doesn't get a vote and I don't get to vote because we have an idea how strong each person is."
KRO objects, "That's not fair Gohan."
Gohan grins, "To bad, besides I know whom you would pick."
Videl says, "I'll vote first I want to see you and your dad at Super Saiyan."
Anthony exclaims, "Your dad can go Super Saiyan!"
Gohan replies nonchalantly "Yeah he was the first one to go Super Saiyan."
Anthony asks, "Who else can go Super Saiyan?"
Gohan nonchalantly responds, "Vegeta and you know I can."
Goten and Trunks shout, "We can too!"
Gohan responds "Maybe with some training because I was the youngest Super Saiyan ever."
Goku says, "You're still a bit young Goten."
Vegeta remarks "If you're telling the truth son prove it."
Goten and Trunks take their stances and power up.
Their eyes turn green and their hair turns blonde.
There was a chorus of "I can't believe it." and "What in the world."
Gohan nearly falls on his butt and asks "Goten when did this happen?"
Goten shrugs "Ever since I can remember."
Vegeta asks "Trunks out of the two of you who is stronger?"
Trunks responded, "I am since I'm older but just by a little bit."
Vegeta retorts, "Just a little bit huh, we'll have to fix that."
Erasa says, "I want to see everyone that can go Super Saiyan in their Super Sayian forms if that is okay."
Gohan shrugs "Okay I guess." He quickly powers up to the Super Saiyan form.
Goku also quickly powers up to the Super Saiyan form.
Vegeta spats "Why should I?"
Erasa says "To be honest I want to take a picture of it I think it would be cool. But first I want to say that no one will see the pictures I live alone and I do my own prints. I'll give anyone a copy if they want one."
Videl huffs "I just think it is because you're a journalist and you want to take pictures of everything you see. I think it would be a bad idea in case someone else did get ahold of your pictures."
Erasa remarks, "They actually look a bit different than they do in their regular forms and it's not like I requested Gohan to be in his Super Soldier outfit so no one would recognize them."
Videl shakes her head "Wrong they would be recognized from the Cell Games footage especially Goku because he is in the same outfit he fought Cell in. Vegeta would or would not be recognized because the only thing he's missing is the armor."
Vegeta comments "Brat your woman is observant."
Gohan laughs "No she has watched the footage of the Cell Games that much to the point she has it memorized."
Piccolo comments, "I have to agree with Videl in that it could potentially be a bad idea."
Tien agrees, "I also agree that it would be a bad idea."
Bulma says "What if she printed the pictures off at my place and left the copies there for anyone that wanted one. You know I'm always taking pictures."
Goku remarks, "I guess that could work."
Erasa asks, "Does that mean I can take a picture or a few?"
Gohan shrugs "I guess so."
Erasa jumps up and down "Thank you, thank you, thank you. This is going to be so cool." She pulls her camera out of her purse.
Vegeta states, "I still don't see why I have to do what this female says."
Erasa says, "I understand if you're afraid of taking your picture you don't have to I just thought it would be cool to have all the Super Saiyans in a picture together."
Vegeta retorts, "Afraid? Afraid! I am not afraid of having my picture taken I just don't like the idea of being in the same picture as that clown." He powers up to Super Saiyan.
Erasa asks, "Who are you calling a clown?"
Goku replies, "He is referring to me, if he's not calling me that he calling me by my Saiyan name."
Kat remarks, "I thought Goku was your name."
Goku smiles "No, it is my earth name, the name I prefer to go by."
Videl asks, "So what is your Saiyan name?"
Vegeta answers, "Kakarot is this fool's real name."
Angela giggles, "Sounds like carrot."
Erasa says, "Goku, Gohan, Vegeta, Goten, and Trunks, can you group up with the kids in front?"
They group up and Erasa takes the picture. Erasa looks at it and says "Thank you."
Sharpner remarks, "I want to see Goku and Vegeta in an energy blast duel because they are full blooded at Super Saiyan."
Gohan exclaims "Are you serious?!"
Sharpner replies, "I'm totally serious I think that match would be radical."
Robert says, "I kind of want to see you, Gohan against Piccolo."
Gohan rambles off "Okay so far Videl wants to see me against my dad at Super Saiyan, Sharpner wants to see dad and Vegeta at Super Saiyan, and Robert wants to see me against Piccolo."
Erasa says, "I want to see the kids go at it at Super Sayain I think they will do the least damage."
KRO cracks up.
Gohan asks, "What is so funny?"
Between laughs, KRO says, "She thinks that because they are kids they wouldn't do much damage."
Gohan just shakes his head.
Angela says, "I want to see Tien and Yamcha duel because I think they are handsome."
Tien and Yamcha blush.
Kat says, "I two want to see Tien and Yamcha duel but not for the same reason as Angela I'm curious as to which one of them is stronger."
Anthony says "I want to see Goku and Vegeta duel also because they are full blooded Saiyans."
Gohan figures it up in his head "One for me and dad, two for dad and Vegeta, one for me and Piccolo, two for Tien and Yamcha, one for the kids." He says aloud "We have a tie of a match between dad and Vegeta, and a match between Tien and Yamcha. Okay KRO you can be the tie breaker."
KRO grins from ear to ear and says "Goku versus Vegeta."
Gohan retorts, "Figures I knew that was what you would pick."
KRO remarks, "If you were going to be sore about it you should have been the tie breaker."
Gohan responds, "I'm not sore, I'm exasperated. Anyways you didn't say in which form."
KRO thinks for a second "In their base form like how they first fought."
Gohan remarks, "Figures that was what you were going for."
Vegeta laughs, "Why not indulge the mutt you know I've been dying to get my hands on Kakarot."
Gohan reminds, "It's just an energy duel."
Vegeta grins "It does not matter I shall finally prove stronger than Kakarot."
Goku laughs, as he stretches "Don't bet on that Vegeta."
Vegeta taunts, "While you have been helping your boy deal with school stuff I have been training."
Goku grins, "I have been training as well, don't think that I have been slaking. Now, how about we do this right. " He points to a rock spire "I'll be up there and you in the air."
Vegeta retorts, "I suppose you want to use the same attacks as when we first faced each other as well."
Still grinning Goku says, "Wouldn't have it any other way." He continues to stretch.
Vegeta countered, "As long as you don't use that blasted Kaio-ken attack!"
Goku looks at him cheerfully "I shouldn't need it this time around."
Sharpner asks Gohan "What's Kaio-ken?"
Gohan sighs, "Well the way dad told me is that it is surge of energy, where your power and strength, speed, hearing and sight dramatically improve. Dad referred to it as a super self. The only drawback is that it can only be sustained for a short period of time so you have to conflict as much damage as possible as quickly as possible. But I'm paraphrasing."
Goku praises "Very good Gohan that is exactly what the Kaio-ken is I'm surprised you remembered that but I haven't needed any use of the move since I ascended to Super Saiyan."
Sharpner says, "I see so Super Saiyan is more effective than the Kaio-ken."
Goku responds, "It not that it is ineffective it just that Super Saiyan is stronger than Kaio-ken, but the Kaio-ken can still be effective if you're in a tight spot."
Goku asks "We're to do this in our base forms right?"
Gohan replies "Right."
Goku conveyed, "I guess that means we need to power down Vegeta."
Vegeta retorts, "I heard the boy I'm not deaf. Quite frankly I don't understand why we're taking orders from the boy."
Gohan looks at him with a scowl "They're not orders no one is making you participate."
Kat asks, "Why does he have such a high and mighty attitude?"
Gohan sighs and powers down "That is because he is the Prince of the Saiyans."
Kat looks at Vegeta "He's a prince? Sure he has the looks and the muscle but I wouldn't have pegged him for royalty."
Vegeta points at Kat "You girl, with the cat ears, mind your tongue."
Bulma yells at Vegeta "Leave the girl alone!"
Vegeta crosses his arms and huffs at Bulma then powers down out of Super Saiyan.
Goku also power down along with the kids.
Goku seriously says, "Let's do this Vegeta."
Vegeta smirks "I'll lead."
They both take to the air.
Goku lands on a spire of rock and Vegeta stays in the air.
Videl says to Gohan "I want to get a good view."
Gohan responds, "Okay just put your arms around my neck." He stoops down so she can do so.
Videl puts her arms around his neck.
Gohan wraps his arm around her waist and takes to the air then lands on a nearby spire.
Goku take his stance with his hands cupped to the right side.
Vegeta takes his stance with his hand pulled back to the left side by his ear.
They power up their attacks a purple aura around Vegeta and a blue aura around Goku. A purple energy sphere appeared in Vegeta's hand and a blue energy sphere appeared in Goku's hands.
Goku starts chanting "Ka…Me…Ha…Me…"
Vegeta shouts "Galick Gun!" as he thrusts his hands forward as the energy sphere hurled towards Goku.
Goku thrusts his hands forward shouting "HA!" the blue energy blast hurled toward Vegeta.
The two energy attacks collide and instantly Goku's attack starts to overpower Vegeta's attack.
Vegeta puts more energy into the attack and it begins to overtake Goku's attack.
Goku pours more energy into the attack and it evens out becoming a stalemate.
Videl asks "Who is stronger your dad or Vegeta?"
Gohan responds, "Dad is and that has always pissed Vegeta off."
Vegeta pours more energy in to the attack once again overpowering Goku's attack.
Goku shouts "HA!" huge surge of energy was poured in to the move and completely over powered Vegeta's attack, and it rushes towards Vegeta.
Vegeta doges the attack, flies down to Goku, grabs his shirt, and shouts "Were you trying to kill me?"
Goku grins "I knew you would move out of the way, besides why would I try to kill you now when I could have let Krillin do it all those years ago."
Vegeta lets go of Goku's shirt and proceeded to punch Goku in the gut.
Goku thou in pain laughs it off.
Goku and Vegeta rejoin the group.
Gohan wraps his arm around Videl's waist and rejoins the group.
Anthony says "That was beyond awesome it was stellar!"
Sharpner gives Anthony a look.
Anthony responds "What? I'm trying not to cuss."
Sharpner just shakes his head.
Bulma suggestively asks, "Well do you want to call the party to an end here or do you want to all want to head back to Capsule Corp and then leave?"
Eighteen walks up to Bulma.
Bulma hands Marron back to her.
Most of the group wanted to call the end of the party there.
Tien, Chiaotzu, Yamcha, and Piccolo bid farewell and take to the air and leave.
Krillin bids farewell to the group and he take to the air with Eighteen and Marron then they leave.
Videl had a look of indecisiveness.
Gohan place his hands on her shoulders and asks, "What's wrong Videl?"
Videl looks up at him "I want to go with you but I should make sure our friends get back to the city."
Bulma smiles "I'll make sure they make it home you go ahead and go with Gohan."
Videl says hopefully "You sure?"
Still smiling Bulma replies, "Yes I'm sure."
Videl smiles and says "Thank you."
Bulma waves it off and says, "Oh hey you two I forgot to say this earlier but your watches can communicate with each other besides the police it's like in case you get separated and needed to find out if the other was okay."
Videl asks, "Wouldn't that make the GPS function useless then?"
Bulma shakes her head "Not necessarily."
Videl suspects something was up about the watches that Bulma wasn't saying but let it slide she figured she would find out eventually.
Sharpner, Erasa, Robert, Angela, Robert, and Kat climb aboard Bulma's plane followed by Bulma.
Vegeta and Trunks take to the air and leave.
Bulma starts the engine and then takes off.
After Bulma was gone, Gohan says, "I think I'll ride with Videl back to the city in her jet copter, I want to talk with her about a few things in private."
ChiChi remarks, "You just talk and make sure she gets home safe no funny business!"
Goku grabs ChiChi says "Good luck." Grins as everyone else places a hand on Goku with his other hand he places two fingers to his forehead and they all disappear.
Gohan pulls Videl into a tight embrace, takes a deep breath in and slowly exhales.
Videl was confused and asked "Are you okay Gohan?"
Gohan nods his head and replies "Yeah I'm okay I'm just glad you're still safe."
Videl chuckles "I'm probably safest with you. But tell me what is this all about?"
Gohan grins, "I'll tell you in a little bit but first I really want to kiss you."
Videl blushes "Okay." She stands on her toes.
Gohan leans in and kisses her.
The kiss was soft and gentle but not quick like a peck there was a shade of yearning in the kiss as if asking for more.
They broke away.
Videl had to take a breath of air and asked, "Why did you want to kiss me all the sudden?"
Gohan looks off into the distance and responds, "I don't know if you would understand."
Videl remarks, "I'm sure you could help me understand."
Gohan says, "I'll try but let's first get going it's going to be late in Satan City."
Videl says, "Okay let's go."
They climb into Videl's jet copter and take off.
Videl asks, "Which way do we go?"
Gohan points in a direction "We go that way, southeast."
Videl replies "Gotcha."
Videl heads southeast.
After about an hour of silence Videl asks "What has been up with you? You have been tense around everyone, then you turn around once we were alone you pull me into a hug and kiss me not that I didn't mind it, I just want to know if you're okay."
Gohan look at her and replies, "Yeah I'm okay now."
Videl pleads, "Then would you mind explaining a few things."
Gohan responds, "I don't know where to start with I've been running everything thru my mind."
Videl says "How about the hardest one first, why did you decide to kiss me?"
Gohan sighs, "It was a Saiyan pride thing."
Videl asks, "What do you mean?"
Gohan sighs again "I was reclaiming you as mine, I would have done so after I saved you but I didn't feel comfortable enough to do so in front of everyone."
Videl remarks, "It makes it sound as if I was property to be reclaimed."
Gohan clicks his tongue against his teeth "I had a feeling you would see it like that but you're not property you're my life partner, well that is what Dad and Vegeta think."
Videl asks, "What is a life partner?"
Gohan leans back in his chair "You know how some animals pair for life it's kind of like that."
Videl asks, "Let me guess it's another Saiyan thing."
Gohan nods "Yeah it is."
Videl asks, "How do you know I'm your life partner?"
Gohan looks at her "The fact that you got thru to me while I was in a berserker state, by the way dad told me I was at the second level of Super Saiyan."
Doubtfully Videl remarks "Surely if it was anyone else like your dad you wouldn't of hurt Brock."
Gohan says seriously, "If you were anyone else that was captured I would have had more control with you captured and him kissing you I lost that control I was looking to kill him."
Videl shrugs "It was just a kiss and a very sloppy one at that. I don't see how that merits killing him."
Gohan scratches at his head "I'm really trying to not make it sound like you're property."
Videl says calmly "Then explain it how it was explained to you."
Gohan takes a deep breath and says, "It wasn't just because of the kiss it is because he violated someone that belonged to me."
Starting to understand Videl says, "So 'reclaiming' me was about repairing your pride and restoring my honor."
Gohan looks at her as if he realized something and responds, "It is exactly like that."
Videl expresses "Elaborate more on this life partner stuff."
Gohan tries to convey "It is a bond that when it is normally between to Saiyans they are aware of the others position like during battle, but with us being in school it really isn't needed. But a scenario I can give you is that if you and all our friends were captured I would save you first because I would be more concerned about your safety over theirs."
Videl stated, "That seems to be unfair to our friends but that would make sense."
Gohan scratches at the side of his face "Also we Saiyan men are overprotective of our women."
Videl laughs "I picked up that much after dad was thrashed by Vegeta and you tackling down Brock. Now explain to me why you were so tense today."
Gohan replies, "I was still angry about Brock holding you captive and kissing you, and I hadn't reclaimed you yet."
Videl reassures "Well I'm safe now and you reclaimed me, are you good now?"
Gohan nods "Yeah I'm good I kind of feel anew."
Videl smiles "That's good." She pauses and starts to frown "Do you think we will still have trouble with Brock?"
Gohan frowns and replies, "I'm afraid we will still hear from him I wouldn't be surprised if he tries something on Monday."
Videl was shocked and realized "What if he tries to reveal you as the Super Soldier on Monday? You did tackle him as a Super Saiyan second level or not to him the hair looks the same."
Gohan looks into the distance "I've already counted on that. The only thing I don't know is how he will reveal me."
Videl sighs "I'm going to change subject because talking about Brock stresses me out. You said Piccolo kidnapped you, can you tell me about it?"
Gohan laughs a little "Yeah I can tell you. Let's see I was four at the time well first I need to back up. Dad and Piccolo were fighting Raditz and I was in Raditz space pod. I heard my dad's screams of pain and in my anger I broke out of the space pod and head-butted Raditz off dad. That was what Dad and Piccolo told me because shortly after that I passed out. While I was out Piccolo and Dad defeat Raditz at the cost of Dad's life. Anyways Piccolo sensed how much power I had in the short burst of energy and decided to train me. Mind you I am still out I got woken up by being dropped in water. Piccolo tells me he was going to train me what he didn't say was that he was going to leave me to survive on my own of six months and then actually train me for the following six months."
Videl asks, "What was he training you for?"
Gohan answers "The arrival of Vegeta and Nappa."
Videl looks in the distance and says "I see Satan City in the distance."
Gohan nods "I figured we would be seeing it soon."
Videl asks "Can I ask you a question actually a couple questions?"
Gohan jokes "Besides that one?"
Videl gives him a look and replies "Yes besides that one."
Gohan says, "Ask away."
Videl asks, "When would a good time be to come over to learn how to fly?"
Gohan replies "Well, you can come over tomorrow in the morning and we can start working on it."
Videl responds, "Okay and my next question is kind of selfish."
Gohan asks, "What is it?"
Videl shyly says "I know we said we would take it slow but I really enjoyed that kiss and was wondering if it was a one-time deal or would there be others like it?"
Gohan chuckles "I would only kiss you like that if I was sure no one was looking or no one was around."
Videl looks down somewhat disappointed and replies, "I understand."
Gohan looks at her and studies her face and noticed that she looked saddened and thought of something quickly "Videl does the roof of your house have security cameras?"
Videl looks at him oddly trying to figure out where he was going with this "No just the doors and windows. Why?"
Gohan grins, "You'll just have to trust me."
Videl looks at him with a raised eyebrow "Trust you huh?"
Gohan smiles "Yep."
Videl asks, "Are you going to tell me what you're thinking?"
Gohan's smile gets bigger "Nope, well I'll only tell you that you'll like it."
Videl gets frustrated and huffs "You're being impossible."
Gohan laughs.
They fly the rest of the way to Satan City in silence.
Sometime later Videl lands her jet copter in the driveway.
They hop out and Videl asks "Okay Gohan what are you up to?"
Gohan looks around wraps his arm around Videl and take her to the roof of the house.
Videl says, "We're on the roof now what?"
Gohan whispers "This." He gently places his hand under her chin and slowly pulls her up as he leaned into her. He captures her lips, Videl gets pulled into the kiss and she wraps her arms around Gohan as he wrapped his arms around her they kiss like that for about a minute.
(Meanwhile)
Hercule looks out the window and sees Videl's jet copter.
He storms outside looking for Videl shouting "Videl, Videl where are you?"
(With Gohan and Videl)
Gohan groans out of frustration and breaks the kiss.
Videl asks, "Are you okay?"
Gohan looks down at Hercule "Yeah I'll be okay" he throws on a smile "I'm always okay. Let's go."
Videl sees that the smile is a fake one and wonders what was bothering him be decided it was best not to ask at this time.
Gohan wraps his arm around Videl and 'jumps' from the roof landing behind Hercule.
Videl clears her throat and says "I'm right here with Gohan."
Hercule turns around and says "Young man I don't care if you did beat Cell don't be keeping my daughter out so late."
Gohan responds, "Let me explain sir the whole party had relocated to Gizard Wasteland to demonstrate different energy attacks."
Hercule looks at him with a raised eyebrow "That is still no excuse."
Gohan sighs "I'll do better next time."
Hercule breaks into a laugh "Relax kid I'm just giving you a hard time."
Gohan and Videl's watches go off.
The Chief comes on their communicators "Videl we need you and the Super Soldier, someone with a flame torch is setting stores on fire in the downtown area."
Gohan powers up to Super Saiyan and materializes his Super Soldier outfit he removes the facemask "Videl I'll take care of it, it's too dangerous for you my outfit is fireproof."
Videl kisses him on the cheek and says, "Be careful Gohan."
Gohan replaces the facemask "I will be." Then he takes to the air and heads downtown.
Videl pushes the button on her communicator "Go… I mean the Super Soldier is on his way he figures it is too dangerous for me to go."
The Chief replies, "We'll be on the lookout for him."
Videl climbs into her jet copter and starts the engine.
Hercule asks, "Where do you think you're going?"
Videl replies, "What do you think, to make sure he doesn't get hurt." And then she takes off.
Hercule says to himself "She will definitely be chasing after him for the rest of her life."
Gohan lands in the middle of downtown and scans the area for the arsonist. Then there in the middle of fleeing people he spots him wearing a white shirt and khakis setting a shop on fire.
Gohan removes the facemask and shouts "STOP WHERE YOU ARE!" then replaces the facemask.
The arsonist turns around and aims the flame torch at Gohan.
Gohan throws a small energy blast at the flame torch causing it to explode.
The arsonist starts to run away.
Gohan easily caught up to him and blocked his way.
The arsonist tries to run elsewhere but Gohan blocks him at every turn.
Videl lands her jet copter and gets out she shouts, "Stop toying with him. Are you going to knock him out or what?"
Gohan grabs the arsonist shoulder and give him a small chop to the neck knocking him out.
The police Chief drives up, gets out, and asks, "Is this our guy?"
Gohan gives a curt nod and hands over the suspect.
As the Chief put the arsonist in the car, he speculates, "So I assume you found out who he is because I think you almost called him by name over the communicator."
Gohan glances at Videl with concern.
Videl admits " That was a slip of the tongue earlier…Actually I knew who he was when you asked about it last time only reason I fibbed was because I had just found out before you called us. But it is up to him if he wants to reveal himself to you."
Gohan looks at the Chief "I'll tell you as long as you keep it to yourself and don't tell the rest of the force."
The Chief turns off his radio "I'm on radio silence."
Gohan removes the facemask to show his face.
The Chief reacts "Why you're around Videl's age. What's your name son?"
Gohan replies, "My name is Gohan sir but will you continue to refer to me as the Super Soldier."
The Chief responds, "Will do."
Gohan places the facemask back on.
The police Chief turns his radio back on.
The Chief asks, "How can we get ahold of you?"
Gohan hold his wrist up and say, "Bulma Briefs made me a communicator on the same frequency as Videl's communicator and we are in all the same classes."
The Chief responds, "Okay, well you kids need to get home its dark."
Videl bids farewell, jumps into her jet copter, and takes off back home.
Gohan takes to the air and follows after her.
After Videl lands in the driveway Gohan lands beside her.
Videl pushes the button to put her copter in its capsule.
Gohan powers down and de-materializes his outfit.
Videl asks, "Why were you toying with the arsonist?"
Gohan looks at the ground and shrugs "I don't know seemed like a good idea at the time."
Videl gets close to him and looks up into his eyes and asks "What else is going on with you? I've never seen you toy with the bad guys before."
Gohan just looks away.
Videl pleads "All I'm asking is you let me in." she wraps her arms around him in a hug.
Gohan reciprocates the gesture and hugs her back.
Goku shows up via Instant Transmission and says, "Hey Gohan ChiChi is worried about you I tried to tell her you're fine but she insisted on me fetching you."
Videl takes a step back and says "Goku maybe you can explain a few things for me."
Goku scratches the back of his head "I can try my best."
Videl remarks "Gohan hasn't been himself today even to the point that he was toying with a bad guy today after we got back into the city. I've never seen him toy with anyone before."
Goku puts his arm down "I've seen him toy with someone before so I'm not surprised."
Videl puts her hands on her hips "Who did he toy with?"
Goku looks at her seriously "He toyed with Cell."
Videl nods "I see."
Goku asks, "Did he reclaim you?"
Videl replies "Yeah he did he claimed he felt better but then he seemed grumpy…after dad came out looking for me."
Goku inquires, "What were you doing at the time if I may ask?"
Videl blushes ten shades of red "We were kissing on the roof."
Goku asks, "What kind of kiss was it because he could have been trying to reclaim you again because it was possible he thought you weren't fully reclaimed."
Videl thinks about it for a time "I think it was the same kind of kiss he gave me at Gizard Wasteland." She turns to Gohan "Were you trying to reclaim me again Gohan?"
Gohan nods slowly.
Videl asks, "Is that was what was bothering you and why you were toying with the bad guy?"
Gohan nods and looks off in the distance.
Videl asks, "Was it my fault that is didn't fully work?"
Goku shakes his head "No it's not your fault it was the delivery." He turn his attention to Gohan "I know you want to take it slow but maybe you should use the same kind if kiss that was used to steal her honor."
Gohan snaps his head in the direction of his father wide eyed like he didn't want to do that.
Goku says sternly "It might be the only way because it is too early in your relationship to do the other way of reclaiming her."
Gohan sighs and looks at the ground.
Videl asks, "How will I know it worked?"
Goku replies "You'll feel a surge of energy go thru you. It will raise your power some to make you stronger. In turn it will raise his some making him stronger."
Videl responds, "Earlier I did feel something but I didn't know what it was."
Goku smiles and suggests, "How about I go inside and distract Hercule while you guys 'kiss'."
Gohan quickly grabs Videl around the waist, lifts her up, and goes to the roof.
Goku walks over to the door and rings the doorbell.
Hercule open the door and says, "Oh hey Goku what brings you here?"
Goku asks "Mind if I come in?"
Hercule replies "Sure come in."
Goku walks in, and Hercule closes the door.
Goku finds a chair and takes a seat.
Hercule says "Make yourself comfortable. I think the kids are off fighting crime right now."
Goku just nods and replies, "I see."
Hercule asks, "Did you know your boy was fighting crime here in the city?"
Goku responds, "I did know that I was with him when he made his debut appearance."
Hercule asks "Would you like a drink? Scotch, Whiskey, Sake?"
Goku laughs, "I don't drink Alcohol and besides I'm not thirsty."
Hercule asks again, "What brings you here Goku?"
Goku replies, "I'm just here to fetch Gohan ChiChi is really worried about him."
Hercule chuckles "So she sends you to go get him."
Goku remarks "Yeah."
Goku glances up at the ceiling.
Hercule looks up, sees nothing, and asks "What you looking at?"
Goku turns his attention back to Hercule "Nothing really"
Hercule asks, "Did you know Videl wants to learn how to fly?"
Goku responds, "I did know that and I'm leaving it up to Gohan to teach her."
Hercule looks at his watch and remarks, "It shouldn't take that long to catch an arsonist."
Goku asks with a raised eyebrow "An arsonist huh?"
Hercule says "Yeah the Chief called on their communicators about an arsonist setting fires to shops and stores downtown. Gohan told Videl that he would take care of it and insinuated that she stay put but not long after he left she went chasing after him. I swear that girl will be chasing that boy for the rest of her life."
Goku chuckles "She probably will be but what can we say they are young."
Hercule looks at his watch again "I don't like this I'm going to check on them."
Goku gets up and tries to reassure him "I'm sure they are okay Gohan would make sure nothing happens to Videl."
Hercule retorts, "You may not worry about your son but I worry about my little girl."
Hercule opens the door and finds Gohan and Videl standing there.
Gohan says "Hey I was about to ring the doorbell."
Hercule pulls Videl into a hug "Are you alright Videl?"
Videl gasps for air "Yeah never been better."
Hercule tells Gohan "Hey son your dad is here to fetch you."
Gohan looks at him questionably "Dad's here? Oh Dad's here."
Hercule asks, "Did you get knocked in the head or something?"
Gohan replies "No just tired."
Goku walks up to the door just behind Hercule and asked seriously "How are you Videl?"
Videl realizes what Goku is asking and replies, "I feel like I could get caught up on all my homework and train for a couple hours without stop other than that I feel great."
Goku smiles and chuckles a little.
Hercule looks at Goku then Videl feeling he just missed something.
Goku asks seriously, "Gohan how are you?"
Gohan responds "I feel good not as tense as I was earlier today."
Goku smiles "That's good to hear. Well we should get going say goodbye Gohan."
Videl walks back over to Gohan.
Gohan pulls her into an embrace and kisses her on the cheek then says, "See you tomorrow Videl."
Hercule asks, "What is going on tomorrow?"
Videl turns around "Gohan is going to start teaching me to fly."
Hercule responds, "Right…flying lessons."
Goku walks to the door and out and says as he turns Gohan around "Well it was nice talking to you Hercule and it was nice seeing you Videl see you tomorrow."
Hercule responds, "It was nice talking with you Goku." And he closes the door.
Goku and Gohan walk out as far as the sidewalk before they take to the air.
Goku asks "Why did you decide to toy around with the arsonist?"
Gohan sighs "I was in a bad mood and I was taking it out on him I probably would have kept toying with him if Videl hadn't of shown up and told me to knock him out already."
Goku remarks "Wish you had listened to me that well when I told you to stop toying with Cell."
Gohan groans out of frustration "Your still going to give me a hard time about that I learned my lesson on toying with opponents strong enough to destroy earth. Just that this was different I was doing it to just be doing it because I knew I could toy with him with Cell I wanted to make him suffer I told you that."
Goku conveyed, "I know son but no matter how strong or weak an opponent is you shouldn't toy with them because while you're toying around with them they could be planning a way to beat you that is what gets Vegeta in trouble at times, he will toy with an opponent because he's arrogant."
Gohan looks at the ground rushing passed him and says "Okay."
Goku looks at Gohan "How about some late night training since you are feeling better?"
Gohan agrees, "Okay sounds good."
Goku asks, "Why didn't you reclaim Videl shortly after you saved her? I'm just curious."
Gohan laughs, "I didn't want to do it in front of everybody. I never see you kiss mom except on the cheek and that was what I was thinking about doing with Videl only actually kiss her when we are by ourselves."
Goku chuckles, "That was what I figured."
Gohan asks, "At the party when I approached you and Vegeta, what were you talking about?"
Goku responds, "We were talking about you and why you hadn't reclaimed Videl yet."
Gohan sighs "I see. I meant to ask you how did you know I was planning to reclaim Videl after the party."
Goku stops midair and crosses his arms.
Gohan stops and backs up abet surprised at his dad's sudden stop.
Goku tells Gohan "I was able to read you, as soon as Bulma said something about a 'fieldtrip' I knew you would use that to your advantage that was why I told you 'Good luck'."
Gohan responds "I should have figured you knew what was going on. Wait did Vegeta know what I was planning?"
Goku replies, "He picked on your intentions as well but he didn't really care."
Goku starts to fly again as well does Gohan.
They fly the rest of the way in silence.
They land and they were greeted by ChiChi waiting outside the door.
Chichi asks, "Did he reclaim her?"
Goku says, "I'll let Gohan answer that."
Gohan responds "Yeah it took three tries but I restored her honor."
ChiChi smiled "That's good you look better too. You look more relaxed."
Gohan replies, "Thanks mom I do feel better."
ChiChi asks, "Where were they Goku?"
Goku responds, "They were at Videl's house."
ChiChi gasps "Do you think Hercule suspects anything?"
Goku reassures her "I don't think so he did catch me looking at the ceiling for a split second when I noticed their energy raise but other than that I don't think he suspects because when we left Gohan did his usual of just giving her a hug and kiss on the cheek."
Gohan asks, "Is it okay if dad and I do some training?"
ChiChi asks, "Are you caught up on your homework?"
Gohan replies, "I'm caught up on it I'm actually ahead."
ChiChi responds "Then I guess you can go train."
Gohan smiles "Thanks mom."
Goku and Gohan take to the air and fly off to go train.
A/N: I'm surprised I got this done when I did considering I was busy all month long. Let me know what you think. I know many Fanfics refer to it as "mates" but to me it sounds to animalistic that was why I went for "life partner". Well For those of you in the USA Happy Thanksgiving.
