Arc learned that Gohan and Videl were getting married. He knew this for a week. It had been two years almost three and he decided to show up the next day, but first he had to go see someone. He flew down Krillin's house by the beach, as they had moved out of the Kame house right after the Cell games. He flew up to a window and knocked almost instantly and small girl with blonde pigtails showed up in the window.
"Arc!" she screamed. "I missed you." She then jumped out to him knocking him almost all the way to the ground.
"I missed you too kid," Arc said giving her a hug. "It's been too long Marron."
"Marron what's going on?" 18's voice could be heard from the second story window.
Arc put his finger to his mouth to quiet Marron and then he flew up to the window.
"Arc," said 18 with a smile. "It's good to see you."
Arc flew into the house and set Marron down. He heard Krillin walking up the stairs, and as he came up to see what all the comotion was he spotted Arc.
"Hey Krillin. Nice hair." Arc smiled and cocked an eyebrow.
"Arc. Where have you been? What have you been doing? Have you heard about Gohan?" Krillin asked as he looked at his young friend.
Arc cringed at the last question and told him, "Dende's, training, yes." Then he told them about the last few years. He told them what Mirai Trunks had said, and why he left. He told them about going to level 3 and then showed them. Marron thought it was scarey so he turned back to normal. He looked at his friends, Krillin had grown his hair out longer than he thought it would ever get, 18 had her hair very short, and Marron still was looking much older but still didn't have a nose. It was so long sine the last time he'd seen her.
*FlashBack*
"Marron Arc is going away for a while. It might be a long time before you see me again, but I promise to come back," Arc told the now crying four year old. "Don't cry. I'll be back so when you hear this," he knocked on the window, "That means I'm back."
He gave her a hug and then left.
*EndofFlashBack*
"Okay listen guy," Arc now had a serious tone in his voice, "I'm going over to see Gohan and Videl Tommorow. I just couldn't stand one more day up on the lookout. Please don't tell them about me. I want to surprise them."
"Sure," Krillin said.
"Can he stay here tonight Mommy please can he please," Marron begged.
"Sure sweetie," 18 said with a rare smile.
The next day Arc went through his plan. He made breakfast as a thanks and then started charging up his instant transmission. He suddenly disappeared and then reappeared. Right in front of the Son residence. It was the weekend so he hoped they were training right now. He knocked on the door to reveal Trunks and Goten. "ARC!" they screamed turning Super Saiyans and started sparring. After a little while Chi-chi and Bulma walked out to see what all the fuss was about. They stood there in shock as the boy they searched for for the longest time just showed up on the door step. Finally the shoock out of it to see Arc giving them a hug. "Hello you two," he said.
They started asking questions and he told the whole story. He then asked where Gohan and Videl were. Just as he asked Gohan walked in. He put on his son grin and walked over and greeted him. The same old questions came and Arc answered, "Just wait a minute." They waited for a few seconds and then Videl walked in.
"You know Gohan when I said that I'll race you I was just joke..." she stopped looking at Arc. Then she walked over to the kitchen grabbed Chi-chi's frying pan and hit him in the back of the head. "Where have you been mister? You had us worried? We've been looking for you forever?" her anger flaired as a tear ran down her chin.
He walked over and gave her a hug. Then he sat down and told his story again. When he was finished he looked over at Gohan and Videl and added, "Oh I heard about you guys too, congradulations." They both smiled and held each other closer. Arc had held back the fact that he was now Nyuushin form 3, and what M. Trunks told him.
They spent the rest of the day catching up and training. Arc walked over to Gohan and gathered Chi-chi and Goten. "I have some good news. I spoke with Goku when I went into a depression during my time away and he cheered me right up. He said that he would come back for Gohan's wedding if he got married to Videl. So I've recently talked to him and he's tying off loose ends and he'll be wished back in three days."
This caused much happiness and Bulma set up a party for Goku and Arc's return. She got caterers and called everyone up then went straight home to get ready. "Gosh," Gohan said, "we still have three days. I wonder if she realizes that?"
"She's probably just reiforcing the house because no dobt Vegeta will want to spar. Who knows what those two will destroy," Arc said and then he and the Son's busted up laughing, Videl didn't get the joke so she looked rather worried.
The next few days went by very fast. Arc went back to his house to see nobody had bought it and except for the fact that the grass needed to be cut the house was in good shape. No one had even entered it since he was gone. Except for his friends when they were searching for them. He spent the days fixing it up and getting all the utilities hooked back up.
He was excited to see Goku, but a part of him wanted to beat the moron into a lifeless pulp. He left his family and friends behind aswell, but it was the hardest thing he had to do. Goku however seemed happy when he decided to miss out on Gohan growing up, and he didn't even know about Goten. His anger surged and his ki rose. He almost reached Nyuushin before he settled down.
One day left, he thought. Maybe I'll challenge him before Vegeta gets a chance to. That would be good I haven't had a decent spar in a long time. He thought about how Gohan had been slacking off these last seven years. "Woah," he said out loud, "I'm starting to sound just like Vegeta. Well maybe not him, but at least Piccolo.
After a troubled sleep Arc woke up and took a quick shower. Goku was coming back at three in the afternoon. He had time to go spar with Vegeta and then Goku might be a challenge. He was thinking about this and then looked at himself in a mirror. I guess I got the cockyness of a Saiyan now, he thought.
He headed for Bulma's and said his hello's he talked to Trunks for a little bit then walked into the gravity room.
"This better be important," he said turning around to see Arc.
"You, me, spar," Arc said taking the words right out of Vegeta's mouth.
"Gladly are you really in that big of hurry to die?" he asked confidently.
"Just fight," Arc said. They each took a fighting stance and Vegeta powered up to Super Saiyan.
"You still know how to do this right?" he asked with an evil smirk.
Arc gave an equally impressive smirk and turn Nyuushin form 2. "Oops I guess I forgot to stop."
Vegeta turned level 2 and said, "You're going to pay weakling."
They started fighting throwing kicks and punches at each other at a speed a trained eye would still have trouble keeping up with them. "Wow Vegeta. It's been a while since I had a good spar."
"Same here brat," he said.
"But I sense that Goku is back so lets end this."
"I agree," and with that Vegeta yelled Final Flash.
Arc turned Nyuushin form 3 and grabbed the ball. Holding the ki in one hand he held out the other and said, "suitorutoku." He then absorbed the ki and said, "suitoru. Thanks Vegeta." He held out his hands his right behind his left creating an "X". He screamed, "Cross Blast!" A beam shot out of his hands it was made of two beams crossing each other. The blast hit Vegeta and he was went to the floor. "Thanks Vegeta see you next time."
He ran out to greet Goku leaving an angry Vegeta screaming, "I'm not finished with you yet weakling."
Arc ran to the livig room and decided that Goku must be somewhere in the middle of the huge mob. He leaned against a wall next to Piccolo. He knew that Piccolo also felt the same way about Goku. They looked at who hadn't joined in on the mob Trunks, 18, and Marron, who quickly ran up beside Arc.
Goku finally made it out of the crowd, with Goten on his shoulder and said, "Hey Piccolo, Arc, 18. I'm guessing you're Trunks, and who are you?" He looked over at Marron who hid behing Arc's legs.
"She's Krillin and 18's daughter," Arc explained.
"Krillin and 18's?" he questioned, "Way to go Krillin."
The guests noticed Arc and rushed over to say hi to him as well. Arc not wanting to be the center of attention said, "How about we hear from Goku about how the after-life treated him?"
They all asked and he told them about his adventures and all the tournaments they had up on the Grand Kai's planet. They spent the day chatting and then Goten and Trunks went to go play. Goku quickley joined in.
"I forgot how much of a kid he is. He has had an excited voice this whole time and he's acting like everything is so new," 18 said suprising everyone.
"Hey Marron," Arc said to the little girl sitting on his lap, "why don't you go play with them?"
"No i want to stay with you," she said stubbornly.
He suddenly realized how hard it must have been. They were so close and then one day he leaves for two years. "I'm sorry Marron. For just leaving," he looked up at everyone, "I'm sorry. I guess I better tell the whole story." He told them his story this time going into detail. They all listened and then afterwards some of them decided to go dancing. They got dressed and went to a dance club that would allow the minors.
Gohan had a grey suit on, Videl had an eye-popping dress on, and Arc decided to put on his navy blue thermal on, slacks, and a button up shirt that had flames on the bottom. Yamcha had a dark green button up shirt with jeans, Tien had his normal tank top, with a jacket and slacks, Lunch had a pink dress on she was in her ditzy form, Chiaotzu wore his normal clothes as did Piccolo, Goku had his orange hawaiian shirt and khaki's, Chi- chi wore a dark purple dress, Vegeta was wearing his pink shirt, much to his dismay, and yellow pants, Bulma had a light green shirt, and a mini- skirt to match, Krillin wore his white tux, and 18 had a deep red swing style dress. Trunks and Goten wore suits and Marron wore a cute little dress.
Krillin, 18, Chi-chi, Goku, Gohan, Videl, Trunks, Goten, Tien, and Lunch were all dancing. Bulma was trying to get Vegeta to dance but he refused.
"Fine Yamcha let's dance," sheturnd to see Yamcha with his tongue halfway down some girls throat.
Arc decided to take action and ask ed her if she would like to dance. Vegeta played right into his hands. "Stand aside weakling I'm going to dance with my mate."
Arc sat down and told Marron to go dance with them. She agreed and headed off. He sat looking at all of them and then saw Erasa and Sharpner enter. "Hey Guys!" he waved them over. They asked him where he went and he said he had business in the States. They bought it and started dancing.
Arc's eyes wandered over the crowd when he caught Karen one of his old class mates and her boyfriend arguing. He knew he should just stay out of their conversation but his good hearing made it too tempting.
Suddenly the guy grabbed her wrist and she slapped him trying to get away. He slapped her back and this got Arc's attention. If it's one thing he hated it was guys beating girls. He ran into the guy sending him into the wall. He picked him up by the throat and said, "Get out of here now." The guy complied and ran out. Many people cheered, making him blush.
He walked over to Karen and asked if she was okay. She replied by giving him a deep kiss, and then a thank you. She had long straight red hair, she was very fit, and kind of short. Arc never really looked at her this way. She's beautiful, he thought. They spent the rest of the night dancing.
