"So tell my why we're doing this again?" Pan asked Bra who was looking at a pair of sandals.
"Come on we've been working all this time, it's nice to get out and do something fun." Bra explained.
"But who's watching Chibi usa?" asked Marron.
"She joined art club and my brother was able to get the job because the one club leader quit." Bra replied. "Pure luck if you ask me. Pan try this on." Bra tossed Pan a two toned dark blue T-shirt.
Pan sighed and walked into the dressing room.
Two of Bra's friends whom she met in this time approached her. "Bra your younger cousin is cute, well thanks for inviting us it was fun shopping." Her friends then left.
Marron raised her eyebrow at Bra. "Younger cousin?"
"Yeah, Pan, I had to make up some excuse as to why she had to come." Bra answered.
"Couldn't you have just said that she was a friend." Marron pointed out.
"Yeah I guess I could have, but you know, they may not want to hang out with someone who not in High School." Bra informed her.
"What are we going to do about this tournament coming up?" Marron questioned. "Should one of us compete."
Bra looked at Marron, "We may all have to watch in the audience. You and Me aren't really fighters, and Trunks and Goten are too strong for this time, and Pan, well you know, we don't want to have her end up going up against her parents."
"Yeah I guess you're right." Marron concluded.
"How does this look?" asked Pan who had just came from the dressing room.
"Pan it looks so cute!" Bra squealed. "You have to buy it."
"You think so?" asked Pan.
"Yeah, it looks really good on you." Marron added. "And you do deserve something for having us drag you all over the mall into every store."
Pan laughed. "Ok I'll get it."
Tuesday after school, Chibi usa showed up at Gohan's house to train with him and Goten.
Gohan and Chibi usa flew Goten out a distance to train. Mirai Goten, Bra, Pan, and Marron followed to keep watch. They all hid behind a huge boulder
All three of them started out with warm ups like basic exercises. Each of them doing as many sit ups, pushups, and running as they could. Then they moved on to basic fighting technique.
"Goten, Chibi usa and I are going to spar for a little bit," Gohan announced.
"Sure, Mom said to give you two some time to your self because you like each other." Goten replied.
Gohan and Chibi usa both blushed. "Goten!" Gohan scolded.
From a distance Marron began to laugh.
"What?" asked older Goten.
"I didn't know you had such a big mouth when you were little!" Marron giggled.
Pan and Bra joined in the laughter. Trunks wasn't there because he had to attend a school staff meeting.
"Hey I was just a little kid." Goten tried to defend himself. "Come to think of it I do remember this."
"Who are you guys?" A young voice asked from behind the four of them.
They all turned around at once and were faced with Chibi Goten!
"ER-um," began Marron.
"We are..." Pan started.
"We were just..." Bra stopped.
"Hanging around." Goten finished Bra's sentence.
"Oh, what are your names?" Chibi Goten asked.
"I'm Goten," Future Goten accidentally answered without thinking and then immediately covered his mouth.
"Really! That's my name too!" Chibi Goten exclaimed.
"Wow that's neat." Future Goten tried to act young at heart.
"You better get back to your brother." Marron interrupted pushing him along.
"Yeah maybe Chibi usa will teach you how to fly." Added Future Goten.
"Alright," with that Chibi Goten was gone.
"Goten why did you tell him that Chibi usa could teach him how to fly?" asked Bra.
"Chibi usa did teach me how to fly." Goten explained.
"My mother taught you?" Pan said in disbelief.
"Yes after teaching Videl, Gohan sent me to Chibi usa for lessons." Goten replied.
In the distance, Gohan and Chibi usa were in an intense sparring session.
"Gohan, please don't go so easy on me!" Chibi usa yelled through her kicks and punches. "Don't worry if you hurt me, I won't kill you or anything! I need a challenge."
Gohan sighed, sparring with a girl for the first time was a bit uncomfortable. Gohan began to get a little rougher. He ended up hitting her right smack in the face and she sailed to the ground and cratered.
"That's more like it!" Chibi usa laughed and she climbed out of the crater her body made.
"Gohan come here hurry!" Goten cried from a distance.
Gohan and Chibi usa, both worried, ran in the directions of Goten's cries. Once they reached him, they found out that it was only a lizard he was yelling about and both face faulted.
"Goten you can't interfere with our training." Gohan warned. "We need to be ready for the world martial arts tournament."
Goten got a tearful look in his eyes.
"Hey, I don't mean to be to hard on you," Gohan apologized.
"Why don't you and Goten train for a little bit." Chibi usa suggested.
Gohan looked at her. "What do you mean, you have to train too."
"Gohan he's your little brother," Chibi usa pointed out. "And I need a break anyway."
"Alright." Gohan agreed. "Come on Goten."
Chibi usa left the two alone and flew a distance from them to do some training on her own. She surveyed the large cliffs around her. With one of her ki blasts, she blew up one into many pieces and then flew into the debris. Chibi usa punched everyone of the rock debris she came across into millions of pieces.
"Oh my God!" Gohan's faint voice was heard in the distance.
Chibi usa flew back to where he and Goten were in case there was some sort of danger and was shocked to find Goten as a Super Saiya-jin!
"I didn't know Goten could become a Super Saiya-jin." Chibi usa commented.
"Neither did I till now!" Gohan was still shocked.
Goten then began his story about his mom training him and how he became Super Saiya-jin in front of her.
"Wow, you sure are talented for your age," Chibi usa complemented. "I bet you could win a sparring match against me."
"Can you teach me how to fly?" Goten asked.
"Teach you how to fly?" Chibi usa repeated. "Sure I can."
"Yeah! Can we start now?" Goten replied excited.
"Ok lets get started." Chibi usa agreed smiling. "Gohan can you wait down here because he probably won't get it on his first try."
"Sure," Gohan replied.
Chibi usa grabbed Goten's hand and flew up into the air about 800 feet. "Ok Goten, concentrate on your ki energy and you should do fine. Don't worry if you don't get it on your first try." Chibi usa then let Goten go. He plummeted down to the earth, then a light burst around him and flew at a level direction!
"No way could he get that on his first try!" Chibi usa exclaimed almost not believing it.
"Yeah I'm a birdie!" Goten chanted happily.
Chibi usa flew down to Gohan. "That kid really is talented."
"Yeah, who would of thought he could turn Super Saiya-jin at a young age and learn to fly in only five minutes." Gohan added.
Goten came down and landed in front of Gohan and Chibi usa.
"Wow Goten that was awesome!" Chibi usa spoke in awe. "You really surprised me!"
"Yeah you should enter the world martial arts tournament." Gohan suggested.
"Wow you mean I should really enter!" Goten exclaimed.
Videl came flying into view. "Hey what are you guys doing?"
"We're training for the world martial arts tournament." Gohan replied.
"Do you want to spar with me Videl?" Chibi usa asked. "Gohan and Goten are going to be sparring with each other and I could use a partner."
"Him and that little kid?" Videl asked in disbelief ignoring Chibi usa's question.
"Trust me that kid is pretty strong." Chibi usa laughed.
"Sure I'll spar with you." Videl accepted.
Chibi usa got into a fighting stance. Videl followed. Next to them Gohan and Goten had already begun and already Goten was almost proving to be Gohan's equal.
Videl made the first move which gave Chibi usa the advantage. She grabbed Videl's extended arm and through her over her shoulders. Videl came back and kicked her leg into Chibi usa's ribs. Soon they were exchanging their own kicks and punches repeatedly. Chibi usa did go a little easy on Videl. Chibi usa finished it with knocking an out of breath Videl to the ground.
All through the week, the four of them trained like that. They each progressed after each training day. Bra, Pan, Trunks, Goten, and Marron would watch from the distance as they trained to keep a good eye on Chibi usa. Finally two weeks later, the day of the tournament came.
"Are you nervous?" asked Gohan after Chibi usa came out of the women's dressing room. She was wearing a red GI and her hair was fixed into a ponytail.
"A little I guess." Chibi usa replied.
"Chibi usa!" a familiar voice called over a crowd of people.
"Videl!" Chibi usa said a little surprised. Videl had her hair cut short. Chibi usa almost didn't recognize her.
"I got my hair cut, I figured it was too much in my way." Videl explained.
An announcement was then made over a large speaker. "Attention ladies and gentle man, because of year's pasts, sexual abuse and insecurity , there will be three divisions. One will be men's, another women's, and another for children. All competitors please report to the check in desk to get your number."
"Well how sexist is that!" Videl exclaimed.
"I know what you mean!" Chibi usa added. "We could probably beat all of these girls and most of the guys!"
"It's now almost pointless for me to have made you come Gohan," Videl stated.
Chibi usa, Videl and Gohan went to the check in center and got their numbers.
"82!" Chibi usa exclaimed.
"75!" Videl shrieked.
"79!" Gohan cried. "Well were going to be awhile."
"Yeah, I hate long waits!" Chibi usa complained.
"Will one and two for the men's division please report to the arena, one and two." A speaker announced.
All three of them sighed.
In the audience, Goten, Bra, Marron, Trunks, and Pan sat and watched the tournament. Trunks had gotten them all some popcorn and all five of them were pigging out.
"Shouldn't one of us be watching my mom?" Pan questioned.
"Oh my gosh I almost for got." Trunks remembered. "Bra you go find her and Goten you just stand by."
Goten and Bra both got up with out any argument and went to look for Chibi usa.
"Trunks I'm going to go down and get some candy." Pan stated.
"Ok go ahead just make sure Chibi usa or Gohan doesn't see you." Trunks excused her.
Pan made her way down the steps and through the crowds of people. Trunks and Marron were now alone. The first matches were going on, nothing big happening since they were some of the weaker fighters. Marron tried to concentrate but it was a little too boring for her. She felt something brush against her cheek. She had turned and saw that Trunks had kissed her! He was blushing about it. Marron didn't know what to do or say, it made her blush also. She just gently kissed him back. For the rest of the time until Pan returned, neither of them said anything to each other.
"Numbers 52 and 75 for the women's division please report to the central arena." A voice came over the loud speaker. "52 and 75,"
"Videl that's you good luck," Chibi usa encouraged.
"Yeah, thanks," Videl replied.
"Go get her Videl," Gohan said.
Videl walked to the arena. Her opponent was a tall attractive woman. A bell rung and the match began.
"Chibi usa-chan!" Momoko squealed approaching her.
"Hello Momoko-chan." Chibi usa greeted.
"I came to wish you good luck," Momoko explained. "And that flying lesson really came in handy, I don't have to worry about jerks trying to stalk me down anymore."
"I'm glad to hear that Momoko-chan." Chibi usa smiled.
A bell from the girls section rung and Chibi usa quickly turned around. Videl had one the match and Chibi usa missed it.
"Good job Videl," Chibi usa congratulated as if she had been watching the entire match.
"Thanks," Videl replied.
Gohan's match came shortly after. His opponent was a former Japanese Samurai. A push over for Gohan basically.
Finally Chibi usa's number was called. She walked out to arena and met her opponent. It was a short woman about in her late twenties with very short brown hair and forest green eyes.
Chibi usa got into her fighting stance and the woman followed. The bell rung and the match begun. The woman began with a karate kick aimed at the head which Chibi usa ducked easily. Chibi usa then threw a punch to her chest. The woman breathed heavily but instantly recovered. She ran to the other side of the arena and charged at Chibi usa. Chibi usa jumped high into the air and kicked the woman up side the head and knocked her out.
'That was easy,' Chibi usa thought. The match was over.
All through the day Chibi usa and Videl each fought their opponents winning each match. Some opponents were pushovers, and some were a little more difficult. They both soon qualified for finals.
Videl's number was called first and she was to compete against 18! Both girls got into their fighting stances and the match had begun.
18 was an actual challenge for Videl! Both girls almost appeared to be equals.
Videl tried to hit 18 upside the head but she was too quick for her. She did manage to elbow her. 18 then landed a punch to her head and knocked her out.
Chibi usa's match was next. Once she saw her opponent, she almost fainted. It was Makoto Kino. Makoto was one of the senshi's best martial artist and may be able to compete with a regular Saiya-jin. They each got into their fighting stances. Chibi usa was intimidated by the fact that Makoto didn't look nervous at all.
"Aren't you a little to old for Martial Arts tournaments?" Chibi usa questioned with a hint of nervousness. Makoto was in her late thirties.
"Well aren't you a little rude," Makoto teased.
The match then started. Chibi usa thought that the only way she would even have a chance against Makoto was to stay far away from her and tire her out. Makoto proved to be to fast for her. At one point she had Chibi usa knocked to the ground. Chibi usa had to roll as fast as she could to avoid her body slam.
While Makoto was getting up from her body slam, Chibi usa grabbed on to her hair. This was a bad idea though. It gave Makoto a clear shot for Chibi usa's stomach. Chibi usa choked on her breath as she recovered. Makoto was coming back for her. Chibi usa managed to land a punch to her hip, but that was almost nothing to Makoto.
"Ok let's end this now," Makoto announced to her.
"What?" Chibi usa inappropriately questioned.
Makoto landed one final blow to her face and had Chibi usa knocked to the ground. The match then ended with Makoto winning.
"Good try," Videl encouraged.
"I can't believe Makoto even entered!" Chibi usa commented completely ignoring Videl's statement with her hurt pride.
"You still have a chance for second place." Videl reminded.
"Yeah I guess you're right." Chibi usa cheered up.
Chibi usa's next match was with 18. Once they both entered the arena both girls got into a fighting stance.
"Good luck," 18 said.
Chibi usa looked up a little surprised. "You two."
The match began. These two girls proved to be exact equals! Both would confront each other and break out in repeated super fast Punches and kicks that most of the audience couldn't see. They each threw punches and kicks, blocked the others, and occasionally took hits from each other. Both girls would then zoom to one side of the arena after so many rounds and rocket back and impact into another set of punches and kicks.
Chibi usa tried to cut right a few times but 18 always predicted her moves. A few times 18 would try to pull back, but Chibi usa just followed her. The match might as well have been declared a tie.
Towards the end of the match in about the last five seconds, Chibi usa caught site of the girl she had been seeing recently. They both made eye contact distracting Chibi usa from her match. 18 slugged Chibi usa in the forehead knocking her over gaining 18 five points. A bell rung signaling the end of the match.
Chibi usa felt frustrated as she walked out from the arena.
"Calm down Chibi usa, you did get third place." Videl tried to comfort her.
"I wanted first or second though!" Chibi usa screamed into her face.
Videl was taken back.
"I'm sorry Videl I didn't mean to yell at you." Chibi usa apologized. "I just can't believe I got distracted!"
"Pan it's ok!" Trunks said for the 10th time.
"No I made my mom mess up!" she squealed. "She saw me!"
"She couldn't have." Marron stated. "There are too many people for her to pick you out from all of them.
"She made eye contact with me!" Pan wailed. "I just know she saw me!"
By the end of the tournament, 18 had lost to Makoto. Which for the woman's division put Makoto in first place, 18 in second, and Chibi usa in third. Chibi usa felt a little sore for taking a third place trophy since she had hoped for first that entire week.
For the men's division, Gohan had come in first, Goku in second and Vegeta in third. Vegeta grumbled that Kakorotte had defeated him again as he took his prize. For the little kids division, Chibi Trunks came in first, Goten in second, and a boy they didn't know in third.
Chibi usa approached Gohan, "Good job."
"Hey you two." Gohan complemented.
"Gohan I came in third!" Chibi usa complained.
"Come on Chibi usa that's pretty good." Gohan said. "Do you remember my dad by the way?" Gohan pulled Goku over to the side.
"Goku-san?" Chibi usa said a little confused. "I though you were dead."
"I was allowed to come back for one day." Goku explained. "It's nice to see you again Chibi usa."
"You two." Replied Chibi usa.
"Gohan sure has good taste in girls." Goku added.
Chibi usa and Gohan blushed. "What's that supposed to mean Dad!" Gohan demanded.
"Chi-chi told me that you two were dating." Goku explained.
Gohan and Chibi usa's faces got so red that they were the color of beets. Neither of them knew what to say.
"How does Mom know that!" Gohan screamed trying not to embarrass himself or Chibi usa any more.
Goten then saved them both by coming over and bragging about he had gotten second place.
End of part 3
"Come on we've been working all this time, it's nice to get out and do something fun." Bra explained.
"But who's watching Chibi usa?" asked Marron.
"She joined art club and my brother was able to get the job because the one club leader quit." Bra replied. "Pure luck if you ask me. Pan try this on." Bra tossed Pan a two toned dark blue T-shirt.
Pan sighed and walked into the dressing room.
Two of Bra's friends whom she met in this time approached her. "Bra your younger cousin is cute, well thanks for inviting us it was fun shopping." Her friends then left.
Marron raised her eyebrow at Bra. "Younger cousin?"
"Yeah, Pan, I had to make up some excuse as to why she had to come." Bra answered.
"Couldn't you have just said that she was a friend." Marron pointed out.
"Yeah I guess I could have, but you know, they may not want to hang out with someone who not in High School." Bra informed her.
"What are we going to do about this tournament coming up?" Marron questioned. "Should one of us compete."
Bra looked at Marron, "We may all have to watch in the audience. You and Me aren't really fighters, and Trunks and Goten are too strong for this time, and Pan, well you know, we don't want to have her end up going up against her parents."
"Yeah I guess you're right." Marron concluded.
"How does this look?" asked Pan who had just came from the dressing room.
"Pan it looks so cute!" Bra squealed. "You have to buy it."
"You think so?" asked Pan.
"Yeah, it looks really good on you." Marron added. "And you do deserve something for having us drag you all over the mall into every store."
Pan laughed. "Ok I'll get it."
Tuesday after school, Chibi usa showed up at Gohan's house to train with him and Goten.
Gohan and Chibi usa flew Goten out a distance to train. Mirai Goten, Bra, Pan, and Marron followed to keep watch. They all hid behind a huge boulder
All three of them started out with warm ups like basic exercises. Each of them doing as many sit ups, pushups, and running as they could. Then they moved on to basic fighting technique.
"Goten, Chibi usa and I are going to spar for a little bit," Gohan announced.
"Sure, Mom said to give you two some time to your self because you like each other." Goten replied.
Gohan and Chibi usa both blushed. "Goten!" Gohan scolded.
From a distance Marron began to laugh.
"What?" asked older Goten.
"I didn't know you had such a big mouth when you were little!" Marron giggled.
Pan and Bra joined in the laughter. Trunks wasn't there because he had to attend a school staff meeting.
"Hey I was just a little kid." Goten tried to defend himself. "Come to think of it I do remember this."
"Who are you guys?" A young voice asked from behind the four of them.
They all turned around at once and were faced with Chibi Goten!
"ER-um," began Marron.
"We are..." Pan started.
"We were just..." Bra stopped.
"Hanging around." Goten finished Bra's sentence.
"Oh, what are your names?" Chibi Goten asked.
"I'm Goten," Future Goten accidentally answered without thinking and then immediately covered his mouth.
"Really! That's my name too!" Chibi Goten exclaimed.
"Wow that's neat." Future Goten tried to act young at heart.
"You better get back to your brother." Marron interrupted pushing him along.
"Yeah maybe Chibi usa will teach you how to fly." Added Future Goten.
"Alright," with that Chibi Goten was gone.
"Goten why did you tell him that Chibi usa could teach him how to fly?" asked Bra.
"Chibi usa did teach me how to fly." Goten explained.
"My mother taught you?" Pan said in disbelief.
"Yes after teaching Videl, Gohan sent me to Chibi usa for lessons." Goten replied.
In the distance, Gohan and Chibi usa were in an intense sparring session.
"Gohan, please don't go so easy on me!" Chibi usa yelled through her kicks and punches. "Don't worry if you hurt me, I won't kill you or anything! I need a challenge."
Gohan sighed, sparring with a girl for the first time was a bit uncomfortable. Gohan began to get a little rougher. He ended up hitting her right smack in the face and she sailed to the ground and cratered.

"I didn't know Goten could become a Super Saiya-jin." Chibi usa commented.
"Neither did I till now!" Gohan was still shocked.

"Wow, you sure are talented for your age," Chibi usa complemented. "I bet you could win a sparring match against me."

"Teach you how to fly?" Chibi usa repeated. "Sure I can."
"Yeah! Can we start now?" Goten replied excited.

Goten came down and landed in front of Gohan and Chibi usa.
"Wow Goten that was awesome!" Chibi usa spoke in awe. "You really surprised me!"
"Yeah you should enter the world martial arts tournament." Gohan suggested.
"Wow you mean I should really enter!" Goten exclaimed.
Videl came flying into view. "Hey what are you guys doing?"

"Well how sexist is that!" Videl exclaimed.
"I know what you mean!" Chibi usa added. "We could probably beat all of these girls and most of the guys!"
"It's now almost pointless for me to have made you come Gohan," Videl stated.
Chibi usa, Videl and Gohan went to the check in center and got their numbers.
"82!" Chibi usa exclaimed.
"75!" Videl shrieked.
"79!" Gohan cried. "Well were going to be awhile."
"Yeah, I hate long waits!" Chibi usa complained.
"Will one and two for the men's division please report to the arena, one and two." A speaker announced.
All three of them sighed.
In the audience, Goten, Bra, Marron, Trunks, and Pan sat and watched the tournament. Trunks had gotten them all some popcorn and all five of them were pigging out.
"Shouldn't one of us be watching my mom?" Pan questioned.

Goten and Bra both got up with out any argument and went to look for Chibi usa.

"Yeah, thanks," Videl replied.
"Go get her Videl," Gohan said.
Videl walked to the arena. Her opponent was a tall attractive woman. A bell rung and the match began.
"Chibi usa-chan!" Momoko squealed approaching her.
"Hello Momoko-chan." Chibi usa greeted.
"I came to wish you good luck," Momoko explained. "And that flying lesson really came in handy, I don't have to worry about jerks trying to stalk me down anymore."
"I'm glad to hear that Momoko-chan." Chibi usa smiled.
A bell from the girls section rung and Chibi usa quickly turned around. Videl had one the match and Chibi usa missed it.
"Good job Videl," Chibi usa congratulated as if she had been watching the entire match.
"Thanks," Videl replied.
Gohan's match came shortly after. His opponent was a former Japanese Samurai. A push over for Gohan basically.

Videl tried to hit 18 upside the head but she was too quick for her. She did manage to elbow her. 18 then landed a punch to her head and knocked her out.
Chibi usa's match was next. Once she saw her opponent, she almost fainted. It was Makoto Kino. Makoto was one of the senshi's best martial artist and may be able to compete with a regular Saiya-jin. They each got into their fighting stances. Chibi usa was intimidated by the fact that Makoto didn't look nervous at all.
"Aren't you a little to old for Martial Arts tournaments?" Chibi usa questioned with a hint of nervousness. Makoto was in her late thirties.
"Well aren't you a little rude," Makoto teased.
The match then started. Chibi usa thought that the only way she would even have a chance against Makoto was to stay far away from her and tire her out. Makoto proved to be to fast for her. At one point she had Chibi usa knocked to the ground. Chibi usa had to roll as fast as she could to avoid her body slam.
While Makoto was getting up from her body slam, Chibi usa grabbed on to her hair. This was a bad idea though. It gave Makoto a clear shot for Chibi usa's stomach. Chibi usa choked on her breath as she recovered. Makoto was coming back for her. Chibi usa managed to land a punch to her hip, but that was almost nothing to Makoto.
"Ok let's end this now," Makoto announced to her.
"What?" Chibi usa inappropriately questioned.
Makoto landed one final blow to her face and had Chibi usa knocked to the ground. The match then ended with Makoto winning.
"Good try," Videl encouraged.
"I can't believe Makoto even entered!" Chibi usa commented completely ignoring Videl's statement with her hurt pride.
"You still have a chance for second place." Videl reminded.
"Yeah I guess you're right." Chibi usa cheered up.
Chibi usa's next match was with 18. Once they both entered the arena both girls got into a fighting stance.
"Good luck," 18 said.
Chibi usa looked up a little surprised. "You two."
The match began. These two girls proved to be exact equals! Both would confront each other and break out in repeated super fast Punches and kicks that most of the audience couldn't see. They each threw punches and kicks, blocked the others, and occasionally took hits from each other. Both girls would then zoom to one side of the arena after so many rounds and rocket back and impact into another set of punches and kicks.
Chibi usa tried to cut right a few times but 18 always predicted her moves. A few times 18 would try to pull back, but Chibi usa just followed her. The match might as well have been declared a tie.
Towards the end of the match in about the last five seconds, Chibi usa caught site of the girl she had been seeing recently. They both made eye contact distracting Chibi usa from her match. 18 slugged Chibi usa in the forehead knocking her over gaining 18 five points. A bell rung signaling the end of the match.
Chibi usa felt frustrated as she walked out from the arena.
"Calm down Chibi usa, you did get third place." Videl tried to comfort her.
"I wanted first or second though!" Chibi usa screamed into her face.
Videl was taken back.
"I'm sorry Videl I didn't mean to yell at you." Chibi usa apologized. "I just can't believe I got distracted!"
"Pan it's ok!" Trunks said for the 10th time.
"No I made my mom mess up!" she squealed. "She saw me!"
"She couldn't have." Marron stated. "There are too many people for her to pick you out from all of them.
"She made eye contact with me!" Pan wailed. "I just know she saw me!"
By the end of the tournament, 18 had lost to Makoto. Which for the woman's division put Makoto in first place, 18 in second, and Chibi usa in third. Chibi usa felt a little sore for taking a third place trophy since she had hoped for first that entire week.
For the men's division, Gohan had come in first, Goku in second and Vegeta in third. Vegeta grumbled that Kakorotte had defeated him again as he took his prize. For the little kids division, Chibi Trunks came in first, Goten in second, and a boy they didn't know in third.
Chibi usa approached Gohan, "Good job."
"Hey you two." Gohan complemented.
"Gohan I came in third!" Chibi usa complained.
"Come on Chibi usa that's pretty good." Gohan said. "Do you remember my dad by the way?" Gohan pulled Goku over to the side.
"Goku-san?" Chibi usa said a little confused. "I though you were dead."
"I was allowed to come back for one day." Goku explained. "It's nice to see you again Chibi usa."
"You two." Replied Chibi usa.
"Gohan sure has good taste in girls." Goku added.
Chibi usa and Gohan blushed. "What's that supposed to mean Dad!" Gohan demanded.
"Chi-chi told me that you two were dating." Goku explained.
Gohan and Chibi usa's faces got so red that they were the color of beets. Neither of them knew what to say.
"How does Mom know that!" Gohan screamed trying not to embarrass himself or Chibi usa any more.
Goten then saved them both by coming over and bragging about he had gotten second place.
