I don't own Dragonball Z. It has been seven months since chapter 30, by
the way.
Chapter 31: The question before you
"Videl is the winner," The announcer screamed into his microphone. Videl just left the ring, as her fans screamed with excitement, she headed down the corroder to the waiting room. She leaned against the wall, and sighed. She had easily made her way to the semi-finals, as she was the strongest person in the world, as the Z fighters died all the months ago. How she got though the last months with out Gohan, she never knew, at school there was normally an empty seat by her, where her friend once sat, no Gohan was more than a friend, she never did tell him her true feelings. She had become so silent now, her friends had trouble speaking with her, and when they asked about Gohan, she would end the conversation, normally by stating she needed the toilet. Her friends had come to the tournament and where in the front row cheering her on, and were the ones who screamed the loudest when she won. It was them that suggested the tournament, she didn't need to fight in it, and she knew she would win, as the strongest fighter other than her self, that would enter would probably by her father. And with all the ki training she had done, her power dwarfed that of her fathers. Every fight lasted about a few seconds, in which Videl would knock the people out of the ring with one hand. She stared up to spot the next fighters who would fight, one was a boxer, with blue shorts, and orange gloves. While the other was a man in black gi, black sacks on his feet, a black cape that covered his arms, and a black balaclava, his name was the dark shadow, this made Videl laugh. If he won, she would have to fight him in the finals, she sighed, all the fighters here were just publicity seekers. The last true fighter died, months ago, and all the others were fools who actually believe her fathers lies. That still made her cry, Gohan had died, and no one will remember him, and the sacrifice he gave for the world, no the universe, he went into a battle he had no chance of winning, and died by having his head smashed in, he didn't even have a chance. The dark shadow walked out of the corroder again and leaned against the wall, and waited not looking at any thing except the floor in front of him. Videl smiled, maybe he's a really fighter after all, a true warrior who knows a few good techniques, maybe even ki manipulation. No, only a few people know how to do that, I'm one of the last.
"Will the dark shadow, and miss Videl please come this way," a monk said as he walked to the corridor, the dark shadow and Videl followed. As she walked down the corridor she spotted how the dark shadow was looking at her, but quickly truned away when he spotted her gaze. They reached the ring and walked up on to it, and waited for the announcer to say go.
"All right people we have Videl, the daughter of Mr. Satan the man who saved us from cell, and the dark shadow," the announcer screamed into his microphone, as Videl and the dark shadow started to stretch. The dark shadow then did the splits, Videl only knew a few men who could to that.
"All right the winner of this fight will be crowned the world champion of martial arts, and be up they with the greats such as Son Goku, Mr. Satan and the Golden fighter," the announcer began his speech.
"Just start the fight all ready," Videl shouted, at the announcer.
"Oh yeah of course," the announcer was hurt as he spoke, "Begin,"
Videl charged at the dark shadow, and started to throw punches, which the dark shadow dodged with ease. Videl jumped back, and started to power up, the dark shadow just looked at her, and smiled you couldn't see it, but you knew it was there. Videl smirked, and ran towards the dark shadow again, and kicked him to the face. The dark shadow stepped back slightly and grabbed Videl's legs and spun around, and chucked her back the way she came.
Chi chi and Bulma were watching the fight, and were shocked that some one could actually match Videl in strength, as the dragon had not be used yet.
"Would you look at them go, this dark shadow is keeping up with her with little trouble," Chi chi stated as she watched, Videl and the dark shadow were exchanging blows.
"Yeah, I didn't think any one could do that now," Bulma watched as Videl chucked the dark shadow over her shoulder only for him to leap up of the floor as he landed.
"This good," Olong said as he started to eat crisps.
"I haven't seen a fight like this in ages," master Roshie said as he looked at Videl drooling.
Videl started to enter a fighting pose similar to Gohan's and smirked.
"This is great, he's so strong, but I bet he doesn't know about the Kamehameha," Videl thought as she, and the dark shadow were on opposite sides of the ring.
"Kamehameha," Videl shouted as she let loose a blue blast of energy from her hands.
"Kamehameha," The dark shadow said, in a soft, familiar tone, as he mimicked Videl. The two beams hit in the middle of the ring, and they started to try and out do the other.
"How could you know the Kamehameha," Videl shouted as she poured more energy into her beam. The dark shadow said nothing as he copied Videl, by putting more energy into his beam, and soon stalemate was made, as the beam would not move and inch.
"Ok, time for something drastic," Videl smirked as she stopped her beam and leaped to the side, and charged down the ring, jumped up and kicked the dark shadow in the face. His beam was also stopped, as he fell back, he almost touched the ground, out of the ring but he stopped him self in middle air. He floated back to the ring, and started to feel his face.
"How can you fly," Videl shouted, in shocked. The dark shadow just said nothing as he entered a fighting pose, and Videl soon followed suit. They stared each other down, and Videl broke the silence by charging forward and the two started to exchange blows again. The dark shadow hit Videl in the shoulder sending her back wards, and then she had a brilliant idea.
"How could you hit me," She said as she covered her shoulder with her hand.
"I didn't mean to… wait a minute this is a fighting tournament what did you think was going to happen," the dark shadow said in his soft tone again. Videl smirked as she jumped at the dark shadow and kicked him in the chest knocked him to the floor. He leaped back up and said.
"Clever girl," the dark shadow entered a fighting pose that was familiar to Videl some how. Videl smirked as she raised her hands above her head.
"You can match the Kamehameha, but how about this," Videl made a blue energy disc in each hand, and then chucked them at the dark shadow shouting, "Satan's disc,"
The disc chased the dark shadow, but he was too quick, and truned around in mid air and destroyed the discs with beam from each hand.
"How, my attack was perfect," Videl cursed, she had spent two months making that move, and a week on the name.
"Master Roshie how is it possible that he knew the Kamehameha," Chi chi asked.
"I don't now I have only taught four people, and they were, son Gohan Sr., Goku, Yamcha and Krillen," Master Roshie said as he rupped his chin to work out the mystery.
"Then how does he know the technique," Bulma asked no one.
"Well I taught him," some one said from behind them. The group truned around and smiled with joy.
"Your very good, but I have only begun to fight," Videl stated as the dark shadow just stood there looking at her. Videl charged forward, and was about to strike, but the dark shadow slipped on his cape, and fell out of the ring, right on his head.
"Damn cape," he shouted as he got up.
"Well that was a little anti-climatic," Videl said as a teardrop appeared on her head.
"Ladies and Gentlemen the two titans have clashed, and have prove they are equal, but one slipped on his cape, and so Videl Satan is the new martial arts champion of the world," the announcer screamed as the dark shadow walked over to Videl and put his hand forward, in order to shake hands, Videl shock hands with the dark shadow.
"That's what we like to see, good sportsmanship," the announcer screamed into his microphone.
"Good fight, but next time you should lose the cape," Videl stated as she pulled her hand back and used it to point towards his cape, and the dark shadow nodded.
"As the golden fighter is not here, but he did return the belt, I will present the belt to miss Videl," the announcer screamed into the microphone as a monk walked up to him holding a belt above his head. The monk gave the belt to the announcer, who then gave it to Videl. She smiled, as she put the belt on.
"Will all semi-finalist, and finalists please follow this monk," the announcer said as two people walked out of the corridor followed by a monk. The monk then walked down a different corridor as Videl, the dark shadow and the two people followed. They reached the end of it and there was a room with a table in the middle which had four bags of Zeni, and after to was divided, so Videl got 10 million Zeni, the dark shadow 5 Million and the two guys got 2 million Zeni. Videl was about to leave but the dark shadow stopped her.
"What is it," Videl asked, as the other guys and the monk left.
"I have some thing to give you," the dark shadow said in his familiar soft tone.
"What do you have for me," Videl asked, getting annoyed now. The dark shadow bent down on one knee, and took off his balaclava, and there was Gohan staring up at her.
"Gohan is that you," Videl smiled with joy, as Gohan nodded. He pulled a box out, and opened it showing a gold ring, with a diamond on the top and then he said, "Videl will you marry me,"
The dark shadow was really Gohan, who could have seen that coming, and will Videl say yes. In the next chapter, the answer is given.
