The alarm clock strikes 6:30 am. Cockaldoodledoooo! SMASH, Unfortunately, our little alarm clock was smashed to bits and pieces by a person who was quite irritated by it. This person is Son Gohan. Gohan is the older brother to a 3-year-old hyperactive hybrid Saiyan named Goten and the eldest son of Son Chichi, a human. His father Goku well ha, let's just say that's another legend for another day. As I was saying Son Gohan is 13 years old, he is biologically half-human/half Saiyan and he is not your normal 13-year-old. His childhood was far worse than your average 13-year-old. But this is the whole point of why he woke up at 6:30 am. He will finally start attending public school instead of being homeschooled for his whole life, something a normal teenager does, and trust me, Gohan deserves a normal life. "Yawn that was a nice dream" he mutters as he recalls back to the dream, he had about eating hotdogs. He was about to stand up from his bed until he was sent flying back on it by a gust of wind. "Hello, Onii-chan! I was outside trying to catch a butterfly then this giant dinosaur came up to me and tried to eat me but I kicked him in the stomach, sending him flying through the air. After that, I continued to catch the butterfly. I sensed your Ki spike up which means you woke up, so I came to see you" Goten explains.

Gohan can't help but smile at his brother's excitement. He ruffles his little brother's spiky hair before saying "Good morning Goten, hey why don't you let me get ready for school and I'll meet you downstairs ok" Gohan is surprised when he doesn't get the 'ok Onii-chan!' response he had gotten for years now by his little brother. Instead, his younger sibling gives him a questionable expression. "Hey, Onii-chan what is school and why do you have to go to it?" Goten questions. Gohan is taken aback by this question. He wasn't prepared to answer it, that was for sure.

"Well, Goten um… let's see here a w-well school is a place where people go to be educated. There are well how do I put this for you to understand…levels? Yeah, levels there are levels to school. Right now, I'm on a level called Middle school. As for why I'm going is not necessarily to learn but to socialize.

"So why don't you go to learn?"

"Well, that's because I'm smarter than most 13-year-olds"

"Oh ok. I'll see you at breakfast Gohan!" Goten runs off.

Gohan is still confused as to why his brother interrogated him about school. He sighs and shrugs it off. Gohan then remembers his task at hand. "Right, I have to get ready for school…Orange Star Middle school"


Gohan is now sitting on the nimbus cloud flying through the sky, straight to Orange Star City. It has been an hour since Goten's weird interrogation against Gohan. Gohan's brain is going a million miles per hour. Why did Goten ask me why I was going to school? I could tell something was troubling him. How am I going to interact with people my own age? Most of my friends I have now are in their 30's. Most important of all how do I hide my powers? I don't want people to go around thinking I'm some sort of freak and be afraid of me. Gohan ponders.

Sigh, I guess I just have to face what life throws at me as I go through this whole school thing. At times like these I wish dad was here, he would know what to do. I wonder what he is doing in the otherworld right now. Gohan suddenly laughs out loud.

"I bet mom would've said his stuffing his face while fighting some idiot" Gohan exclaims.

Sigh, I wish you were here dad; I miss you…we all do.

Gohan finally arrives in Satan City. He lends in a deserted alleyway and walks out of it pretending to fiddle with his school bag. Making sure no one saw him; he sighs in relief. He checks the time on his wristwatch and is bewildered to find out that he has 5 minutes to get to school or he will be late. He starts to take a very, very, very 'light' jog to his destination. Well to him it could be a light jog but from the people staring at him in disbelief perspective, he was at least going 60km/h.

Not long after Gohan arrives at Orange Star Middle school and slows down his pace to walk. He heads to the secretary's office to achieve his class schedule. After being asked a bit of information, Gohan finally receives his class schedule as well as a little round Orange Star badge which he attaches just below his left pants pocket. He proceeds to his first class, Math.


Gohan knocks gently on the glass door and waits patiently for someone to open it. Seconds later, a man in his late 30's opened the door and instantly glares at Gohan upon seeing his Orange Star badge.

"You're late. My name is Mr. Peterson and I'm your math teacher. I don't want an excuse for why you're late. What you can do is introduce yourself to the class, choose a seat and follow along with the lesson and if ever knock on my door that hard again I'll let you sit in for detention after school and I promise you that no amount of 100% papers will save you. You got me, Mr. Son?" Mr. Peterson explains intimidatingly.

Gohan looks at Mr. Peterson nervously. "Y-yes, sir… It will never happen again"

Mr. Peterson smiles triumphantly and gives Gohan a warm smile. "Well come on then we don't want your peers waiting now, don't we?"

Gohan nods and follows Mr. Peterson back into the class. Gohan stares in disbelief around the class. There are so many people his own age in one room it's ridiculous. There are about 35 teenagers in this room. As Gohan stares in awe a sudden wave of nervousness hits him. He will have to introduce himself to these people.

*Oh, dende what will they think of me? Will they think I'm weird? Oh, come on Gohan! You fought against macrocosm busters since you were four! To top it all off you're the son of Chi-Chi and Goku. Simply introducing yourself should be Child's play ;)

Gohan takes a deep breath and looks towards his classmates with determination. "Good morning everyone my name is Son Gohan and I am 13 year's old"


Author's Note: Hope you enjoyed this chapter and thanks for reading! So yeah, I decided to rewrite this chapter because of many reasons like bad writing, Gohan's age, and Goten's age, etc. Forget everything you know about the prologue. That's all for today folks. Have a Good day!
