Getting close to the end. Please enjoy. By the way, I've got a sequel on the way, set 5 years later. It will be G/V, B/V and G/CC but will focus mainly around 12 year old Goten and 13 year old Trunks. Enjoy.

Chapter 10: Another Problem

Goku and Vegeta both listened intently as Gohan explained the whole fiasco to them. By the end of it they were more entertained than depressed. But why be depressed? After all, they were going to wish her back so there really weren't any worries at all. So now all they had to do was get the Dragon Radar, go to Namek and collect the Dragon Balls, a task that Goku and Vegeta had already done once this week because of this whole incident. So Vegeta went inside and found the Dragon Radar and was just on his way out when Trunks stepped out of his room.

"What's up?" he asked, taking a pencil out from behind his ear. Vegeta turned and looked at him; rather annoyed that he had asked him this when he wanted to get this all over and done with as quickly as possible.

"Videl killed herself over Gohan so now we gotta wish her back with Namek's Dragon Balls" he said bluntly "Now, I've had enough of this, no more questions!". Then Vegeta turned around and once again started off down the hall. Trunks, not wanting to be left out, ran after him. They were just about outside when Bulma called out to them.

"Where do you two think your going with my radar?" inquired Bulma. Vegeta had had enough.

"That's it!!! I can't stand this any more!!!" he yelled. He opened the building's doors and threw the radar at a waiting Goku who caught it with ease.

"The brats go with Kakarot and I'm going to eat, then go to bed! Any questions? I didn't think so" declared Vegeta. And with that he walked back to his room, kicked his door down and stepped into the shower, cursing in both his native tongue and in English. Bulma just stood there wide eyed.

"I'll explain later mom, see ya" called Trunks as he ran up to Gohan and Goku. Goku put his hand on the younger Saiyan's heads and then concentrated. A few seconds later they all appeared on Namek. Goku looked at his two comrades and realised it would be just as easy to simply collect them himself.

"Gohan, you know this will be a lot quicker if I do this on my own" he stated. Gohan nodded. He wasn't gonna argue. All he cared about was seeing Videl again. Goku nodded and disappeared.

"Sorry Trunks, now I have no doubt that you two did nothing" apologised Gohan once again. Trunks looked at him reassuringly.

"Thanks" he nodded "Could you explain this a lil more though, dad was a little skimpy on the details". They both laughed. And then there was silence. It had been a while since they had laughed properly.

"Okay" answered Gohan. And with that he retold the entire tale. He retold the poem perfectly and told him how he had destroyed most of Hercule's living room. He told him how Hercule had helped him feel better and he told him how he had forgotten about Namek's Dragon Balls. By the end of it all they were both a little depressed. They had caused Videl so much pain. It was about now that Goku appeared in front of them.

"Okay guys, all we need now is someone with the password and who speaks Namekian" said Goku.

"We'll just have to check all the villages until we get lucky" said Gohan as he took a look at the Dragon Balls.

"Hey, I bet the old guy who was in charge of Dende's village would know" said Goku, evidently happy that this was drawing to an end.

"Cool, well, let's get going then" said Trunks as he picked up three Dragon balls and Gohan picked up the last three. Goku put his hands on them and then they disappeared, reappearing in Dende's old Village. All the Namek's looked at them, very surprised at the spectacle. The village elder Mari walked up to them, recognising Goku as the one who had taken Dende away all those years ago.

"Greetings Goku" he greeted.

"What? How do you know my name?" asked Goku as many Nameks started gathering around the visitors.

"Oh wait, now I remember, sorry" apologised Goku, rather embarrassed. Gohan and Trunks sweat dropped.

"Uh, we need someone who knows the password for the Dragon Balls" inquired Gohan.

"I know it, but you'll have to do something for us first" replied Mari. A few seconds later Mari nearly fell over from the looks the three Saiyans gave him. They were all becoming rather impatient with the situation and weren't in the mood to do any more good deeds for any part of the universe.

"Uh, but then again, we're not extinct because of you so we'll just call this payback" he said, not wanting to upset three beings with enough power to destroy the universe on their own.

"Thanks" replied Gohan. Gohan and Trunks then put the Dragon Balls down together and stood back and watched as Mari began to summon the Dragon. After muttering something in Namekian the Dragon burst upwards, showering the land with a golden light before turning the sky pitch black. As all the Nameks gasped and whispered about how incredible the Dragon was Gohan was busy telling Mari his wish.

"Tell the dragon to wish Videl back to her bed right now" he said, with a sound of a man just about ready to go on a homicidal rampage. Mari swallowed hard and turned to the Dragon.

"No min ak id chan mi locha no Videl pastel" he yelled. The Dragon's eyes flashed red for a few moments but then stopped.

"This can't be done. Videl took her own life and for this she cannot be brought back to the realm of the living. It is beyond my power" declared the Dragon "what is your wish?". The Saiyans couldn't believe what they had heard. This couldn't be happening. Mari turned to Gohan, expecting to have to start to savour his last few minutes but instead saw Gohan on the ground, his head in his hands. This couldn't be happening. There was nothing left to do.

*Sniff* Poor Gohan, I should probably stop toying with him. Oh well, the next chapter will probably be the last. See yas.
