NOTES FROM IBA: Whahoo! I got 45 reviews O_O! I know...some of you may think it's not that much, but I'm and amature and all. And you don't see that many reviews very often ^_^.
Gohan was on his way to Bulma's house, and Goten had met him on the way, riding the nimbus. Apparently Goten just wanted to go and visit his friend, Trunks.
"Gohan, are you going to see Trunks too?" Goten asked him naively.
"No, I need to talk with Vegeta..." he replied.
"Why?"
"Nevermind that Goten. Look there's Trunks," Gohan pointed to the waving dot. "Now go and play."
"Okay..." Goten decended down to Trunks with the nimbus.
It was only obvious where Vegeta was, and Gohan landed beside the Gravitron. He entered, barely noticed the gravity change to six-hundred times the norm. As Gohan had thought, Vegeta was doing an extensive number of push-ups with a single finger.
"I was wondering when you morons would come around," Vegeta said, bouncing to his feet. He took a towel and dabbed his sweat with it. "I suppose you guys are wondering what that strange energy is?"
Gohan blinked. "Well do you know what it is?"
"Of course I do!" Already Vegeta felt insulted that he would ask such a question. "It's too bad that all of you morons aren't as experienced as I am with different powers and energies. While I traveled around the universe, you just stayed in your little home, remaining stupid and ignorant."
"Uhh..." Gohan had temporarily gone deaf to Vegeta's arrogant rambling. "So what is it?"
"It's an Elemental energy, you twit," Vegeta took a swig from his water bottle. "Indeed, it's not very common, and you have to be very close to sense it, no matter how powerful it is."
"Elemental? You mean like water and fire?"
"Very good. And what's really funny about elemental energy, they don't have to work and train, like us, to obtain more power. The lazy bastards."
Gohan became more interested. "Then how..."
"It's quite complicated. No one really knows how it works, most think it's absorbtion though, there is a limit to which a person's body can take. And it seems those with the water element can to withdraw from the ocean, or lakes when they are near."
"Absorbtion!?" Gohan exclaimed.
"Yes...absorbtion. Now would you like a tutorial on how to tie your shoes?" Vegeta snickered.
"Tell me vegeta, what kind of element are we dealing with?" Gohan said tensely.
A smile spread across Vegeta's face. "It's somewhat of an element that dwells inside us all..."
He paused, then turned from him. "Darkness."
Gohan had left the Gravitron grumbling, quite angry with Vegeta and himself. It seemed that Vegeta had been yanking his chain the whole time. How the hell was Darkness an element anyway?
He approached Trunks and Goten, to see Bulma leaving them with some lemonade.
"Dude, Trunks, your mom is hot..." Goten told his friend as they watched Bulma walk off.
"Eww, Goten!" Trunks said.
(((Good Gawd! It seems Goten has hit puberty!...And has really bad taste.)))
Gohan couldn't help but smile.
With his mood brightened, he laughed. "Come on, Goten. It's time to go."
Gohan and Goten landed firmly on the ground back at home, only to find Videl standing there with her hands on her hips. She, once again, had that pissy look on her face.
"Uhh..." Gohan took a step back in fear. He had finally remembered the date he had schedualed a week ago, and apparently missed it.
"GOHAN!" Videl barked at him. "Where the hell have you been!? I waited on the edge of town for three freaking hours! By that look on your face I can tell you forgot!"
Goten was obviously frightened of Videl too, and snuck off. The lucky bastard.
"I...uh..." Gohan tried to say something, rubbing the back of his neck. "Well Videl ya see..."
Videl growled at stepped up to him, and poked his chest with her index finger. "You and I are going to have a VERY long talk."
"Oh boy..."
Hotaru sat in the office after school, twidling her fingers. It seemed that hours had gone by, and probably had. Her father was still in the principal's office, talking about who knows what.
But as soon as she had that little "accident" happend, she was busted moments later. Hotaru was so nervous. She never meant to hurt anyone, and never had. She didn't want anyone to think of her as some kind of monster. She really wasn't. Hotaru had always tried to be kind, but always seemed to have failed.
She looked at the door, hearing her father's muffled voice come from behind it. Her father has always known about the strange behaviors Hotaru would have and her loss of memory afterwards, and he was doing all he could to get her off easy.
Then Hotaru insides suddenly be pulled into the center of her body, and she fell over in pain. The nearby secretary leaped to her feet, and ran to Hotaru's side.
"Miss? MISS?!" the secretary said.
Hotaru's only response was a grunt of pain and she tightly clutched her chest.
The secretary ran off screaming. "NURSE! NUUUUUURRRRSSSSEE!!!! It's an emergency!"
Then the principal's door swung open, Dr. Tomoe and the Principal quickly ran out to see what it was.
"HOTARU!" Dr. Tomeo exclaimed, then quickly knelt beside her.
Hotaru looked up at him, and a weak smile appeared on her face. "Daddy..."
Heh heh.....oh crap. I think I totally ruined my fanfic with this chapter......oh well. Review and shiot u_u.
