Gohan usually would be irritated by Videls watch communicator going off in the middle of the day since thinking of an excuse when he was such a terrible liar was always annoying. But today he was overjoyed at the opportunity to get away from school and, more importantly, his parents.
After all if he wasn't around than they wouldn't be able to embarrass him any further since he wouldn't be there to be embarrassed. So when the communicated went off in search of his parents while Videl took off in her jet copter, since flying there would have revealed that she can fly raising suspicion and possibly removing her edge during the WMAT.
"Dad I'm going to fight crime make an excuse for me" Gohan whispered then took off as fast as humanly possible so that his dad couldn't attempt to protest.
As soon as he was sure that no one was around to see him Gohan launched off of the roof so as to catch up with Videl, based on what he could sense she was already about a mile away which meant he could go at a relatively leisurely pace, after all with her training what could beat her in such a short amount of time.
Videl arrived at the crime scene and was pleased to see Gohan hadn't arrived yet, not that she didn't like him or anything, she just liked having the opportunity to do something by herself. So getting a quick brief on the situation and finding it to be nothing more than a simple bank job wasn't even enough to ruin her fun.
However her fun did start to go away when she defeated all but a fat mime without even breaking a sweat, having Ki control made this way to easy. However as she attacked the fat mime she was pleased to see it was able to keep up with her.
She could tell she had him on the run as he was always so busy trying to dodge her attacks that he couldn't even attempt to strike back himself. She was finding this quiet fun, being in a fight with someone challenging but who didn't completely outmatch her like Gohan always did.
But as the fight drew on her pleasure slowly started to leave her, slowly her onslaught of punches began to slow as she realized that her belief that she had him on the run was incorrect and that he was really dodging all of her attacks with no effort at all on his part and with minimal movement as well.
Until finally the white skinned man had managed to knock he through a wall so fast she hadn't been able to see his movements. She tried to stand but couldn't, all she could do was struggle as he slowly walked towards her.
Then his red bead started to flash with light and he turned around, as he turned he was greeted by Gohans fist in his face so hard a normal person would have been knocked out cold, but he didn't even flinch. He just stared blankly at the golden haired attacker as if analysing him.
"Target identified son Gohan 75%" he spoke in a very computerised voice with no emotion being visible his face or heard in his voice.
"Android 19" Gohan exclaimed in shock as the inconspicuous mime turned towards him with a smirk on his face.
"Voice verification complete: Target is Son Gohan 95%" the android stated simply before going to attack the eldest son of Goku with a painfully slow punch.
Gohan easily brushed the attack aside and returned by punching it in the face, or rather threw his face as it ended up being as he travelled though the androids plating's like they were rubber.
The android fell unceremoniously to the ground having been defeated with almost no effort on Gohans part. Gohan briefly wondered how the android had returned to life when he himself had seen Vegeta defeat it.
"Videl are you ok?" Gohan asked concern lacing his voice since he knew she wasn't strong enough to take on someone as strong as android 19 yet, of course he would see to it that it didn't remain that way for too long.
"Of course I'm ok Gohan! I'm not some damsel in distress who always needs saving you know!" she yelled indignantly furious that she had needed to be saved by someone he beat in second, not even seconds no second, and with no effort.
"I know that Videl" Gohan muttered not liking that once again he had offended her without any clue how or why.
"Then why do you need to ask?" she questioned angrily, he shouldn't ask if she's ok because she should always be ok and he should know that.
"It's just that…" Videl couldn't hear the end of his sentence as he whispered it so quietly that even Piccolo would have to work to hear him.
"DON'T WHISPER SO I CANT HEAR YOU JUST TELL ME!" she yelled furious that he was trying to avoid the question.
"It's just that…I" Gohan still couldn't quiet think of the words and was praying for an interruption, unfortunately none came and after a few second of Videl tapping her foot impatiently he finally gave in.
"I… care about you Videl… so I get worried when I think you could be hurt" Gohan answered semi-cryptically hoping that Videl wouldn't mention this to Erasa, she would never let it go.
Videl calmed down slightly at hearing that, although she didn't know why, but she assumed it was simply because she knew she cared about him as well and would be upset if anything happened to him as well.
Having no desire to say that verbally she prepared to leave, but, just as she was going to she noticed the downcast look on Gohans face. So instead of going away she went towards him and gave him a tight hug before going up on her tiptoes, since he was so tall she had to be on tiptoes to even get close to his height, and whispering in his ear. "I care about you to my golden haired warrior"
Of course Videl didn't realize what it meant to call him hers, especially as he was part Saiyan. Of course this nice little moment of Videls could never not be ruined by a flash of light caused by a camera going off.
"Ahh son of a …" Gohan stopped himself knowing that if his mother found out about him talking like that it wouldn't end well for him.
"Gohan what's wrong?" Videl asked seeing the pained expression on his face.
"Nothing, my eyes are just sensitive since I was blinded… its why I wear sunglasses all the time" Gohan explained with his eyes clenched shut in an attempted to make the pain go away faster.
Videl nodded, then realized that he wouldn't know so instead said 'oh' before turning to start yelling at the annoying newspaper guy for taking her picture, only to find that he had already gone off with her picture to, most likely use t to annoy her as much as possible.
'Oh no, this isn't going to end well' she though sadly when she realized that it was already too late to stop what was about to happen.
