Ok time for Chapter 3! You know I really do not like Saiyaman's uniform so
I am going to change it a bit!
Gohan flew along seated on Nimbus Indian style. "If I keep going too and from school like this, someone is bound to notice Nimbus sooner or later. I really don't want to have to explain this. I need some way to use my power without revealing myself." It did not take long until the familiar Capsule Corporation building appearing under him. Gohan leapt down and landed. Trunks answered the door when he knocked.
"Hey Gohan! What brings you here?" Trunks asked.
"I need to see your mother Trunks, is she around?" Gohan replied.
"Sure! Come on!" Trunks lead him inside to Bulma's lab where she was working on her latest project. Gohan quickly laid out his situation to her.
"So you need some way to deal with bad guys and to get to and from school without your classmates recognizing you? Did you ever consider just not using your powers?" Bulma said with a smile. Gohan laughed a little sheepishly. "I guess not, you Saiyans never could back down from an opportunity to fight or use your skills." Bulma said, "Maybe I should make you a superhero costume or something. Give me a little time to work on it."
Gohan spent the next half hour with Trunks while Bulma worked. A little while later...
"So I press this red button?" Go asked as Bulma handed him the watch she made.
"Yes, and that will activate the suit." she replied. "Try it." Gohan pressed the button and a suit phased in around him. It was a familiar black and brown suit of Saiyan armor with the black spandex suit underneath, white boots and gloves, and a white turban-like bandanna on his head with a pair of dark shades. A long red cape unfurled behind him as Gohan inspected himself in the mirror.
"You look awesome Gohan!" Trunk said as he looked him over.
"Hey this is Krillin's old Saiyan armor he wore on Namek! I didn't know you still had it Bulma," he said as he twisted and turned inspecting his outfit.
"Yes, Krillin asked me to store it here after he was wished back to life. Vegeta refused to use it, he said it was a primitive model, but it should suit you just fine. How's it fit?"
"It fits great! Thanks a lot Bulma!" He said.
"So what are you going to call yourself?" she asked him.
"Hmmm how about the Great Saiyaman?" he exclaimed.
"The Great Saiyaman huh?" Bulma mused. "Makes sense, alright the Great Saiyaman it is!"
"Gohan, did you tell Chi Chi where you are?" A look of pure terror formed on Gohan's face.
"Oh no! Mom's going to kill me! I've got to go! Thanks Bulma, I'll see you later!" Gohan ran out the door and took to the air.
"Bye Gohan come back soon!" Trunks called to him as he left. Gohan flew home cursing himself. "Stupid stupid stupid! If I don't hurry Mom might not give me dinner." For a Saiyan that's almost a fate worse than death. A white aura flared to live around Gohan as he unleashed some of his ki and sped on home.
"Gohan where have you been and what is that you're wearing?!? Only your first day at school and you're already staying out late! Just because you aren't at home doesn't mean you can turn into a delinquent just when I'm not around!" Gohan flinched at the tirade and gathered up his courage as he prepared to face the force of nature that was his mother.
"Mom, I had to go see Bulma about something. I needed her help to find away for me to get to and from school without my classmates finding out about my powers, and for a way to take down criminals without getting recognized." Gohan said trying to reason with his unpredictable mother.
"So that's what that suit is, so you're going to be a superhero, Gohan that's dangerous!" she exclaimed.
"Mom, there's not a single criminal on the face of the planet that could do me bodily harm, if I can take on Cell as a little boy I can certainly deal with a few petty criminals."
"That's true," his mother mused. Just then, Goten came running in.
"Yay! Big brother is back! Wow Gohan, you look cool! Is that a superhero outfit? What's your superhero name? Can I have one?" little Goten fired off his questions at the speed only the young can handle.
"Hey slow down there squirt!" Gohan said with a smile. "My superhero name is the Great Saiyaman, as for getting one, you'll have to ask Bulma, she's the one who made it for me."
"Wow do you think she'll make me one to Gohan?" Goten asked.
"Maybe if you're good." Gohan said grinning.
"Yay!" Goten yelled happily.
"Change out of that thing Gohan, and Goten it's time to eat."
"All right!" Gohan and Goten exclaimed, but Chi Chi halted Gohan with a hand on his chest. "Not you young man, you have studying to do. Maybe tomorrow you'll be home on time. Poor Gohan looked at her flabbergasted and trudged off toward his room dejectedly when Chi Chi called to him.
"Just kidding Gohan, come on and sit down," she said laughing as the hungry, Half-Saiyan launched himself at the table.
The Next Day
"Have a good day son," Chi Chi smiled at him as she and Goten were outside saying goodbye to Gohan.
"I will Mom." Gohan said as he pressed the button on his watch and transformed into Saiyaman. "Well I'm off," he said as he rose into the air and took off. He called back over his shoulder to Goten. "The Flying Nimbus is all yours squirt! See ya!"
"Wow, thanks Gohan! Bye!" Goten called to him waving at him.
"This is much faster than riding Nimbus!" Gohan mused as he flew toward school. "Looks like I have a little extra time, maybe I'll get an opportunity to make an appearance as Saiyaman, then everyone will forget about the Gold Fighter." He flew along and was passing over the city when something grabbed his attention. A hover car was driving down the road very dangerously. It was speeding and veering around cars, often going into the opposite lane, forcing drivers off the road and narrowly avoiding several accident.
"Road hog!" One of the drivers in the speeding car yelled as he passed another car almost making it hit a building. "Yeah hurry up you slow pokes!" the passenger laughed.
"Idiots!" Gohan growled, "Someone's going to get hurt!" With a sudden flash of temper he hadn't felt in a long time, he quickly descended down and landed in the path of the vehicle, a small distance away.
"Move you idiot!" The driver yelled at him as he skidded to a stop in front of Saiyaman who was staring at them with an angry expression and arms folded.
"You need to slow down! Someone could get hurt!" Saiyaman called to the two speeders.
"Hah!" The driver laughed. "And who the heck are you to be telling me how to drive bozo!"
"I'm the Great Saiyaman!" Saiyaman called out to them as he stared at them levelly with his arms folded, "And you need to slow down before you get into an accident!"
The two speeders began to laugh loudly. "Great Saiyaman? What kind of a name is that? Aren't you late for a costume party? Hahahah!"
Gohan began to unconsciously power up a little as he stalked forward and seized the front of the Hover car with his hands and picked it up and tipped it upside down forcing the speeders to tilt their heads painfully, fortunately for them they were wearing seat belts, unfortunately they were confronted by a very ticked Gohan.
"I put a lot of thought into that name!" he growled at them the speeders where petrified at they gasped like fishes unable to do much else. "S..sssorry! It's a really cool name really!" the driver said nervously. "Now what are we going to do from now on?" Gohan asked them with a dangerously low voice. "Drive carefully," both of them whimpered.
"Good." Gohan smiled with a cheerful smile as he gently set them down on the road, as he stepped out of the way. They drove off slowly with the passenger loudly yelling at him to drive slowly and carefully. The nearby pedestrians were all staring at Gohan as he smirked in a way that would of done Vegeta proud and flew straight up into the air and took off to the school. He landed on the roof and pressed the button changing back into his school closes. He checked his watch.
"Oh man I took too long! I'm going to be late!" Gohan ran to his class and made it just barely in time as he landed in his seat next to Erasa.
"Just in time Gohan!" Erasa said cheerfully as the teacher walked in. "Yeah, just in time." Gohan smiled as he settled back in his chair.
"Hey did you hear? A new superhero was seen in town today!" Gohan heard a student talking in the row in front of him, he listened in when he realized they were talking about him.
"Yeah," the second student said, "He stopped a couple of speeding people before they could injure someone, and he lifted their car with them in it with his bare hands! He's really strong!"
(Yes! They've already forgotten about the Gold Fighter! Saiyaman worked perfectly!) Gohan smiled relieved.
"Yeah," The first student said, "He had some weird name though, the Great Singingman." Gohan jerked at the mistake in surprise.
"That's Saiyaman! THE GREAT SAIYAMAN!" He yelled at the two students who looked at him shocked. They weren't the only ones, the entire class was staring at Gohan including the teacher. Gohan's eyes got wider and wider as he realized what he had done.
"Is there something you'd like to share with the class Gohan?" the teacher asked sarcastically.
"Uh no.." Gohan ducked his head. Erasa leaned over and whispered to him.
"How'd you'd know about his name Gohan?" she asked curious.
"I uh talked to a guy who had seen Saiyaman!" he said automatically as he rubbed the back of his head with his hand.
"Oh right." Erasa said as she turned back to her notes. Gohan however didn't even need to look to know that Videl had him on the balancing scales again as she looked at him briefly. (I wish she wouldn't stare like that! It's creeping me out! Not to mention it's becoming annoying!) Gohan grumbled to himself.
That's it for chapter 3. Next time Gohan finds about how Videl battles crooks and makes his first appearance as Saiyaman to help her out. As the chapters go on, I will get increasingly away from the TV show. The true story will start once Videl blackmails Gohan to teach her to fly. You may have noticed Gohan does not do his Saiyaman poses. I just cannot stand them! He may as well of gone and joined the Ginyu force if he's going to do those! At least there, he would get candies! Mmmmm candy...

"Man, if I'm going to fight in the Tenkachi Bukodai I'm going to really need to get back in my training. However, if Dad and Vegeta are going to compete, how am I supposed to match them? Dad and Vegeta have certainly been training non-stop and are certainly much stronger now. What am I going to do?" Gohan said aloud as he relaxed on his back behind his house, looking up at the sky.
"Whatcha doing big brother?" Goten asked him as he came up to him.
"Oh, hey squirt, I'm just trying to figure out a way to get a lot stronger for the upcoming Tournament. I've got it! The Room of Spirit and Time!"
"What's that?" Goten asked curiously.
"It's a special place where you can get a year of training in one day. I still have a year and a couple of months left in that room!"
"Wow that's cool! Can I come too?" Goten asked him.
"No, I think it would be a bit too intense for you, I just have to convince Mom to let me do it. I think she will if I promise to study while I'm in there. She really wants me to win that prize money."
"When will you do it?" Goten asked.
"When I'm finished giving you and Videl your flying lessons." Gohan said.
(Maybe I'll give you guys more special previews later. Just to wet your appetites. Predictions are welcome if you think you know what will happen.)
