"David, what the hell has come over you?" Natalie scolded. David looked to the ground.
"It's not my fault I was suspicious. Andrea's the most beautiful woman in the world and well girls like Gohan better than me and…I don't know!" David sighed. "I just overreacted."
"I'll say." Natalie sighed. "Look, I think you just need to…"
"Nat, as much as I'd love for you to fix this, you have to let me take care of things okay?" Nicholas asked.
"Well, alright. You always were the brains behind the op." Natalie agreed.
"If he's the brains, then what does that make you?" David asked.
"The diversion." Natalie smirked. They all walked upstairs.
"Can someone please help me up?!" Sharpener yelled.
So with the wedding practically over, Natalie and Nicholas had the hard task of trying to sort everything out. That was a task not even a Super Saiyan could handle…
"Please!! We need to talk!" Nicholas yelled through the door.
"There is nothing to discuss!" Videl yelled back.
"Am I the one, only child who doesn't act like a brat?!" Nicholas fumed.
"No luck huh?" David asked. Nicholas proceeded to bang his head against the wall.
"How'd it go with Andrea?" Nicholas asked.
"She agreed to talk if everyone was there." David said.
"At least you had luck unlike me. Why'd I get stuck with Stephanie McMahon Helmsley reincarnated?" Nicholas sighed. Natalie came back very red in the face. "What's up?"
"Gohan won't talk unless he gets an apology from Videl. I've never seen this side of him before! I mean, except for that one time…" Natalie sighed. "I have had enough."
"Wait, what are you going to do?" David asked, slightly frightened.
"I'm gonna do what I should have done a long time ago." Natalie said. "CARLOS!! La niña esta aqui!!" Natalie yelled as her younger brother came running up the stairs, went into Videl's room and came back out with Videl on his shoulder and took him downstairs.
"Charlie put me down!!" Videl protested.
"Sorry Videl but I'm scared of my sister more than you." Charlie replied.
Later…"You used your brother's brute force to get her down here?!" Eliza exclaimed.
"Hey, if he's gonna be that big there may as well be a use for it." Natalie replied.
"She caught me red handed creeping with the girl next door! Picture this we were both buck-naked banging on the bathroom floor. I had tried to keep her from what she was about to see. Why should she believe when I told her it wasn't me?" Charlie sang as he walked through the living room.
"He has the worst timing." Nicholas muttered. "I have called you all down here because we need to fix this mess. Clearly there has been some miscommunication and that isn't a reason to stop this wedding, or to split up couples for that matter. Now are there any questions?"
"Why was Gohan creeping with Andrea?!"
"Why was David acting like such a…guy?!"
"I'm offended by that statement…"
"SHUT UP SHARPENER!!"
"Why is Videl acting like a pregnant woman if she isn't pregnant?!"
"Why is Gohan a slut?!"
"Excuse me! I am not!!"
"Yes you are!"
"Oh excuse me Videl McMahon Helmsley!!"
"Take that back Mr Suspenders!!"
"FOR THE LAST FREAKING TIME I DO NOT WEAR SUSPENDERS!!!"
"Ok, ok!!" Nicholas yelled over the crowd. "I'm kind of sorry I asked. Now Natalie, will you please answer their questions?"
"Me? Why me?" Natalie demanded.
"Because your surname comes first alphabetically?" Nicholas replied.
"Cute. I shall get you for that later." Natalie huffed.
"Can we get on with it? I need to return my dress by 12." Videl said icily.
"Okay firstly, meow. The answers to your questions are Gohan has been 'creeping' around with Andrea because Andrea needed help controlling her telekinesis. She wouldn't tell us because she has that whole pride thing going on and that's why he was helping her at night. The reason David acted like such a guy is because…well it's not really his fault he's missing a chromosome. He just overreacted coz he cares for Andie so much. And I think that clarifies the whole Gohan being a slut issue. Hehehe. Anyways, Videl isn't acting like a pregnant woman, she's just upset because that's what she's like when she's nervous. Hence the throwing up etc. How'd I do?" Natalie finished as everyone, except Nicholas, looked at her with widened eyes.
"You know, suddenly I feel very sheepish…" Andrea said.
"Me too…" David said.
"I don't. I didn't do anything." Gohan said as Natalie face-faulted.
"That wasn't really the point." Natalie laughed.
"No, the point was to make me feel like a complete bitch wasn't it Natalie?" Videl suddenly burst out.
"No I think it was to make everyone not mad at each other, of course I should really double check that…" Natalie mused.
"Don't make fun of me! You're such a bossy cow!"
"Excuse me?! I'm not the one who wanted everything just so for the wedding!"
"You just did this so you'd have the chance to be a bridesmaid!!"
"For your information I have at least five female cousins who'd love for me to be their bridesmaid!! I did this because you're my friend, although now I don't know why I bothered!"
"Now girls, let's stop this before someone says something they regret!" Nicholas said.
"No! You did this for your own benefit!!" Videl yelled.
"What the hell is your problem lady?!" Natalie demanded.
"You! You never think of other people!! You're…you're…YOU'RE JUST LIKE YOUR MOTHER!!" Videl shrieked.
"Now that would be something regrettable…" David muttered.
I couldn't believe Videl had just said that. Now we all know how Natalie is. You'd think she would react to this in one of two ways. One way would be violence. The other would be an insult that was even worse than the one Videl had spat out. But much to our surprise, she reacted in a way that no one expected…
"I guess now I know what you really think of me…" Natalie said, her voice wavering.
"Nat, I…" Videl was at a loss for words.
"Save it. I never want to talk to you again." Natalie said, as she ran away crying. David ran after her.
"Videl, that was totally out of line. You know what her mom is like." Andrea said.
"I didn't mean to say it, I was just angry that's all." Videl barely said.
"Well whatever the reason, you shouldn't have said it." Nicholas said solemnly. David walked back in.
"I can't find her."
Great. One problem solved, another one arises. The wedding was now two days away, on Valentine's Day no less and we didn't have a maid of honour. I felt more and more that this wedding was going to be a shambles but we got a helping hand from an unlikely source…
In A Playground Park Behind Orange Star Junior High School…
"Goten's gonna wear a suit!" Trunks teased.
"Shut up!!" Goten protested.
"I will not! This has maximum humiliation potential." Trunks smirked.
"Whatever. Hey, do you hear that noise? It sounds like someone is crying." Goten said. They looked over and saw a woman swinging on a swing.
"Isn't that Natalie? You're brother's friend?" Trunks asked.
"Yah!" Goten exclaimed as he zipped over to her.
"Dude has got it bad." Trunks said running after him.
"Natalie, why are you crying?" Goten asked.
"Eep! Goten! You scared me!" Natalie said as she hastily tried to wipe her tears away. "What are you doing here?"
"We were on our way home and saw you blubbering." Trunks stated.
"Trunks!" Goten exclaimed.
"What?"
"What's wrong Natalie-san?" Goten asked.
"Oh nothing. Guys, do you think I'm evil?" Natalie asked.
"No! Is that why you're upset? Someone said you were evil?" Goten asked.
"More or less…"
"Listen Natalie, you have nothing to worry about. Even CJ thinks you're cool. Trust me, that's a compliment." Trunks said.
"No doubt, coming from a Fujitaka." Natalie laughed.
"Besides, you're the nice one." Goten smiled.
"Come again?"
"You know the nice one! Gohan's the smart one, Nicholas is the funny one, David is the goofy one, Andrea is the bratty one and Videl is the evil one." Goten stated.
"Aren't you being a bit harsh?"
"Nope, we're convinced Videl is evil. She's always so mean to us!" Trunks agreed.
"Heh, well I suppose you're right." Natalie laughed. "Thanks guys."
"No problem!" They beamed.
So thanks to the original pranksters, Trunks and Goten, Natalie had come back. Although, I had learned a thing about women in this situation, they can hold grudges for a VERY long time.
"Come on!! I said I was sorry!" Videl pleaded.
"Are you implying that I am deaf now!? I heard you just fine." Natalie replied.
"Then what's the deal?" Videl asked.
"SO the wrong question." Nicholas sighed.
"The deal, you small minded spoiled brat like woman, is that you referred to me as the one human being who has plagued my existence. She almost killed my entire family, you guys and me. Although you're right! I can't see why I am so angry in the first place!!" Natalie huffed sarcastically. Videl groaned in annoyance.
"You are being so difficult." Videl said.
"Guess you're a bigger influence than I thought." Natalie replied.
"WHAT?!!" Videl exclaimed. Gohan held her back.
"I think you need to calm down sweetie." Gohan smiled nervously. "Nat, what is it going to take for you to do this?"
"For Videl to admit she was wrong." Natalie replied.
"I did!" Videl insisted.
"Sincerely." Natalie said raising an eyebrow. Videl choked. "Thought so. Asking you to say you were wrong is like trying to get blood out of a stone."
"Nat, I honestly didn't mean what I said."
"Continue."
"AndIwaswrongIadmititandIamreallyreallysorrysocanyoupleasestopactinglikeabratandcomedotheweddingthingplease?" Videl said very quickly.
"Huh?" The others said.
"Woah, Six much?" Nicholas laughed. (Who can get that reference?)
"Sure. That didn't kill you did it?" Natalie smirked.
"You better bloody believe it did." Videl replied.
"Great. Now I've been working on my speech…" Nicholas started and he looked up to see that everyone had gone. "Charming…"
Finally it seemed like everything had gotten back on track!! But there was, as per usual, some more problems ahead. Why couldn't my life ever be normal?!!
