Repentance Chapter 17 Tournament Info.
Videl ran up the stairs of her father's mansion, while the other's waited outside. Finding her dad hastily gulping down various concoctions she hoped he was still sober enough to talk.
"Umm dad you still sober?"
"Just sweat pea what did you want to ask me?" Hercule just slight slurred, that was the only good thing about his muscle mass. It enable him to tolerate a lot of alcohol.
"About that tournament thing you said, what did you have planned?"
"The greatest of earth's defender's verses the invaders I hadn't fixed the number yet but if we win they go home without destroying us and if they win they can have all the alcohol they want and my seaside resort if they promise not to destroy the earth." Hercule thought he was on a sure thing here. The dude's using light tricks would save him even if no one else could.
Videl then had a very nasty idea "dad how about you make it a 9 on 9 contest."
"9 on 9 but I thought there were only 6 of them." Hercule was just not sober enough to realise what Videl was up to.
" yeah 9 on 9 the side with the most wins triumphs, there are always a few people wanting to support the underdog." Videl finished with a grin.
"Yeah underdog yah got that right we'll be sure to win." Missing the significance of her grin Hercule launched into another of his victory poses.
"Sure dad so when are you going to hold it?" Videl's smirk eerily resembled one of Vegeta's as her plan was staring to be put into place.
"Umm today's Sunday so how's Wednesday sound and you sure your all right Videl? Hercule was getting a bit worried about the look on Videl's face.
"Fine dad I'll tell the other's, oh and I'll be staying at Gohan's for the next few days so don't worry about me all right bye." Videl removed the smirk from her face even her dad would know something was up if she kept it there, as she walked out of the house to where the others were waiting.
Vegeta as always had no patience "well what did he say?"
"The tournament will be Wednesday it will consist of a nine on nine contest." Videl informed them with a slow grin forming across her face.
"Nine on nine but there's only six of us?" king Vegeta wondered what is Granddaughter was up to.
"Well what I had planned was for grandma and Mrs Bardock umm what should I call you?"
"Just call me Celera"
"Okay was for Grandma and Celera to sit it out, they've got another important task, Operation distract Chichi, that will need to be accomplished while we rescue Goku so we can inform him what's going on. He's going to be a pivotal part of the plan. It will need to be implemented immediately otherwise Goku will mess everything up. (deep breath) Now Gohan this first part won't be pretty for us as I'm going to need your grandma and mine to distract Chichi by talking wedding plans. Yes I know it's not pretty but it'll work, then once we got Goku out I'll tell you the rest of the plan. Now wait here while I tell grandma and Celera as they have to do the hard work it's not fair that they get left out." Flying a short way from the group Videl then whispered the plan to the two women. Various nods where seen with the occasional funny look then the two burst into laughter. Still laughing they flew back to the main group.
King Vegeta looked at his mate "Is it that good."
Vasti nodded still struggling to contain her laughter.
"Right I just hope that merriment's not directed a us?"
"No Granddad it's not you're going to be causing merriment on others." Videl explained.
"Okay lets put part one into action, Vasti and Celera you distract Chichi by talking wedding plans while the rest of us grab Goku oh and Trunks grab Goten while we're there." Videl finished before flying of in the direction of the son's forcing everyone else to catch up.
Landing at the Son's Vasti and Celera went on in to the house as the rest hid behind several bushes.
"Now Gohan and Trunks as soon as Chichi is distracted rush in and grab your dad and Goten" Videl whispered to them.
A roar was heard from inside the house "WHO DARES ENTER MY HOME"
"Don't worry Chichi isn't it, it's just your mother-in-law and Videl's grandmother we're he to talk grandchildren well great grandchildren in our case aren't Gohan and Videl just the cutest couple."
Outside Gohan winced even Videl shuddered a bit, but what had to be done, had to be done.
"What you really think so, quick lets plan the wedding do you think Videl should have a long gown or a short?" Chichi was distracted quickly.
"Long would probably look more flashy but a short one would highlight her looks more." Vasti suggested.
Outside "Quick she's distracted get em." Videl put the snatch Goku plan into action.
Quicker than the eye, even Chichi's, could see Gohan and Trunks dashed into the house grabbed Goku and Goten and were out again before anyone noticed they were gone"
"I still can't get over how quick you two are" Videl muttered while the others with the exception of Vegeta were gob smacked. How the hell were these kids so fast.
"Right lets go" Videl was about to fly off when Bardock stopped her.
"What about my mate she's stuck in there."
"Don't worry she'll be fine."
The flew off to the sounds of "hmm you could be right a short gown would look good on Videl. Have a look at these designs do you think any would suit?"
" Thankyou for saving us it was torture in there." Goku thanked his son.
"Don't thank me dad thank Videl. She came up with the plan besides she's got some other plan that she reckons your pivotal to." Gohan directed the attention back to Videl.
"Okay thanks then Videl so what's this plan thing?" Goku thanked Videl before enquiring about the plan.
"Well before I tell you, you should at least meet your dad, your mom unfortunately is stuck discussing wedding plans with Chichi."
"Dad" Goku looked round and saw an identical version of himself except with a scar.
"Son" Bardock and Goku embraced then after several minutes separated "now come on boys make up."
"Its all right brother, I'm not the homicidal older brother out for world destruction any more" Radditz grinned spreading his arms.
"Ahh why not I've forgiven all my other opponents why not you too" Goku grinned too as he embraced he older brother finally forgiving him.
"Okay now that family catch up time has happened I can get on with the plan" Videl Vegeta-ish smirk was back.
"Now what I suggest is that Goku this time instead of fighting for the earth you fight with the invaders." Videl started.
"Hang on a sec what's this about a fight?"
"My dad is going to have tournament 9 on 9 earth vs the invader the prizes are free alcohol and dad's beach resort"
"Cool some beer at last it's been to long since I had a pub crawl." Radditz reminisced.
"Anyway as I was saying before I want you, Goku, to fight on the invaders side with Gohan, Vegeta, myself and Piccolo. Earth's not going to accept some green man fighting on it's side when it's fighting alien invaders." Videl finished.
"Hmm good point but who would that leave on the earth's side we wouldn't get a decent fight." Vegeta wondered.
"Well trunks and Goten can suit themselves whether they fight for the earth or not, but I'm warning you boys no funny stuff or I'll sic Gohan fully mystic on you"
"Gulp"
"As for the rest a bit of duplicity would be in order. Krillin, Eighteen, Yamcha, Tien and Chouzu could be persuaded to fight thinking you, Goku, were on their side that should convince them and then they'll get a hell of a shock when they find out otherwise. As for the rest my dad can find them anyway the invader has to win at least once right"
"Yeah sounds like fun what do you say Vegeta" Goku was actually enjoying the chance to fight for the 'bad guys'.
"Hahahaha who would have thought Kakkarot does have an evil streak so what do we get out of this girl"
"Well Grandma and Granddad and the others will get a place to stay, Radditz can have his pub crawl and the tall bald guy hiding at the back can probably intimidate my father in the match that looks like it would give him some fun."
"Oh yeah" Nappa had been quite until now but the prospect of shaming that afro-ed fool was to good to resist.
"Well yet's start then Goku you go tell Krillin and Co to sign up on herc's side and me and Gohan will go and convince piccolo to join up and we'll meet back in an hour." Videl suggested.
"Okay."
Right that's this chapter tell me what you think any good R&R.
