Goku and that woman zipped back to Mount Pauoz in no time; Gohan watched her curiously. She looked more girl than a woman; Videl was half her size, and she had more of a womanly figure than her.

He wondered what Videl was doing now...

He shook away thoughts of Videl and focused; this girl could be an enemy or-

'Gohan?'

Gohan jumped and turned to find his father and Piccolo and her staring at him.

'What is it?'

'Are you okay?'

'Yes, I'm fine.'

He stared at the girl; she tried to get out of Goku's grasp.

'What did Bloomer say?'

'He's not going to be any help.' Goku said bitterly.

'Let go of me!' The girl demanded.

'Sit down and be quiet!' He said surprisingly nattily. 'Don't say anything until Vegan wakes up.'

Goku threw the girl on the couch; Gohan found himself wincing at his father's harshness.

'Did it go that bad?' Gohan asked quietly.

'Pretty much.' Goku answered quietly.

Gohan turned to the girl. 'What's your name?'

'Olive.' She threw a stabbing glare at Goku as she rubbed her wrist. 'My name is Olive.'

'Who-'

'Who are you people?! Where is the princess!?'

'She is no concern of yours!' Goku said sharply.

'Who are you!'

'I am Son Goku.'

'What did you do to the princess?'

'She's in bed,' he said quietly, 'are you Olive, the daughter of Vegan?!'

'Daughter?!' Piccolo choked as he turned to Olive. 'How?!'

'How old are you?' Asked Gohan.

'17.'

'How are you Vegan's daughter?!'

'I will only speak to the princess!' She said sharply.

'Answer one more question, then: are you here to destroy?'

'No.'

Everyone in the room relaxed.

'Okay, why are you here?' Asked Piccolo.

'What's with all the questions?' She flared.

'What are your intentions, Olive?' Goku demanded sternly.

'Information.' She huffed. 'I am seeking information.'

'We can help you there.'

'I don't want to talk to you!' She flared. 'Are all Earth dwellers this nosy?!'

'We've lived on this planet all of our lives,' Gohan told her, 'we can answer any questions you have.'

Olive threw a scorned look at Goku, then eyed Gohan curiously; she tucked a lock of hair behind her ear and crossed her long legs.

Her legs are shaped like Vegan's. Gohan thought as he cleared his throat.

'Fine.' She turned to Gohan. 'I'll talk to you. Only you.'

Gohan felt his face turn red as he cleared his throat, and his father turned to him with a raised eyebrow.

'How did you learn about Earth?'

'Frieza. As a child, I saw him board a ship, vowing to defeat a renegade sayian named Kakarott and reclaim the lost princess.'

'Did you come looking for Frieza?' Asked Piccolo.

Olive turned away from him.

'Please, respond.' Gohan pleaded.

Olive rolled her eyes. 'At first, but the inhabitants of Odayaka informed me that Kakarott defeated him.'

'So you seek Kakarott?'

'Yes, Frieza said that he had the princess. Where is the

princess?'

'She's fine.' Goku said; his earlier nastiness was gone. 'Freiza told her that you were dead; the idea that her dead daughter was standing in front of her was enough to shock even the most hardened warrior.'

'Who are you? How do you know the princess?'

'We are her friends.' Goku said. 'She has a life here, a son.'

'Was that the young boy I saw?'

'No, that was my son.'

She peered at Gohan. 'And is this another one of your sons?'

Gohan looked at his feet as his face heated up. 'Yes, my son, Gohan.'

'What's the name of that boy?'

'Goten.'

'Where is the princess' son?'

'With his father.'

'Kakarott?'

'No.'

Olive uncrossed her legs and stood, her tail thrashing wildly.

'How long do we have before the princess wakes?'

'I don't know.'

Olive began to pace the room as Gohan's cell rang; she jumped and turned to him.

'It's probably mom.' He sighed and took out the phone. 'Oh.'

'What's oh?' Asked Piccolo.

'It's Bloomer.'

'Why would he be calling you?' Asked Goku.

'Maybe Goten told mom.'

'Ignore the call, and call your mother.'

Gohan obeyed; it rang once before a sobbing Chi-Chi wailed something about someone being hurt.

'Mom? Mom! Calm down?'

'Let me talk to her.'

Gohan handed his father the phone; Goku took the phone and went outside.

'What do you call that contraption?' Olive demanded.

'What contraption?' Asked Gohan.

'What you gave your father, what do you call it?'

'A cell phone.'

'A cell phone?'

'Yes, a cell phone.'

'What's it for?'

'To talk to people.'

Like my scouter?'

'Sort of.'

'Your father, he's Kakarott, isn't he?'

'Yes.'

Olive turned to him; her tail stopped thrashing for a moment. 'Did he truly kidnap the princess, or was freiza lying?'

'Freiza's a liar. He gaslighted Vegan her entire life.'

'Gaslighted? What does that mean?'

'It's slang.'

'What's slang?'

'So, Olive, what do you plan to do if Vegan is your mother?'

'I don't know.' She said in a spacy voice. 'I've been looking for her my whole life- Where is the princess?'

'Resting.'

'I would like to see her.'

'Let's wait until my father comes back.'
