Hey, well, this chapter isn't quite as long as I wanted it to be, but it is longer than the others. Read and reply please.
**************************
The pain filled Gohan, he failed, and the feeling ran through him corrupting him to the very depths of his soul. All he could think about was his failure. The pain he caused those who trusted in him, the loss he felt, of being not only the only human left, but now the only sayin as well. He saw his friends, in a dark and misty haze he saw each one walk up to him, then turn there backs on him for his failure, he was the reason they died, how could they ever forgive him.
Gohan woke up with a start; he sat up in the bed, and looked around. The room was dark now, it took Gohan's eyes a second to adjust to the light, but once it did he looked around spying Nancy sleeping in the corner. Hm, so she really did stay with me. I'm glad I trusted her. Gohan grabbed the sheets, which were now crumpled at his waist, and swung his legs out over the side of the bed. Gohan looked down at himself startled, when he remembered he wasn't wearing any clothes. Well, I could get up and go look for some, and risk a very embarrassing moment…or I could wake Nancy to get me some. I think I'll go with the safe one. "Hey…Nurse!" Gohan kept his voice low, but loud enough to bring Nancy from her dream world.
Nancy looked around the room, blinking her eyes, waiting for her drowsiness to leave her, completely forgetting that she had been called. "Hey. Nancy!" Nancy spun her head around and stared at Gohan. What? How, how can he be awake already? He should be out for another…Nancy glanced at her watch; it was only 2:30 in the morning. He should be out for at least another eight hours! Nancy sighed as she began to think of what she could do with him, again completely forgetting he was still on the bed looking at her. Nancy blushed when she looked up and realized Gohan's eyes never left her as she was contemplating him.
"Wait here, I'll get you something to wear." Nancy got up; stretched slightly, letting her arms reach towards the ceiling, and her chest arch forward. With that, she turned, and walked out of the room, to get something for Gohan to wear.
Gohan slumped back down, deciding to wait for her before he got up. I can't believe I landed on a planet with beings, that look, and I guess are made, nearly exactly the same as earthlings. Earthlings…? Gohan clenched his fists at his sides. Why, why could I not defeat cell, why couldn't I unleash what my father told me I could…I failed them, I failed them all. But before Gohan's thoughts could continue, he was interrupted as Nancy returned, loaded with clothes in her arms.
"Gohan! Gohan, I didn't really know what you'd want to wear, so I just grabbed all these, you should be able to find something here you like." Nancy talked as she rounded the corner to his room, and walked up to him. She bent down, and laid all the clothes at the foot of his bed, and waited.
Gohan looked from the clothes to Nancy, then coughed. "What? What's the matter Gohan? Don't you like the clothes I brought you?"
Gohan shook his head. "No, the clothes are great, it's just."
Nancy sat down beside Gohan. "Just what?"
Gohan looked at her. "Just that I'm naked, and I don't want to change while your watching me." Nancy let out a little shriek as she realized how embarrassed of a situation that would have been.
"Ok, I'll wait outside, you come out when you're dressed. It should be mourning soon, and I'll show you around ok?" Gohan nodded his head. "Good, I'll be waiting, don't take too long." Nancy got up, and walked out the door.
With the metallic click, signaling that the door had been shut, and Gohan was alone in the room again. Gohan got up, letting the bed sheet fall from his body, and walked over to examine the clothes. Hm, jeesh, she might as well have brought a whole store with her for how many different assortments she brought me. Gohan tossed a few over his head, finding a nice pair of boxers for himself he put them on, then went about finding socks, pants, undershirt, and a over shirt; and last, a nice pair of shoes for himself.
Nancy was leaning against the wall outside of
Gohan's room. I can't believe I was
just going to sit there and watch him change.
Stupid, stupid, stupid! Nancy
stopped her self-accusations as she heard the door to Gohan's room whoosh open,
and let her jaw drop slightly at what she saw. Gohan stood before her in black, baggy jeans, with a white
muscle shirt on, which easily showed off his build for such a young age. He had a pair of black boots on that his
jeans were tucked into. Gohan flexed
his arms, still examining what he was wearing.
He looked up at Nancy. "So? Think this is good?"
Nancy felt herself getting hotter while she looked him, studying his self,
trying to decide if this was what he should wear. "Yes. I-It's good enough Gohan."
Nancy moved closer to him, not sure why, but deciding she should give him
a once over. After she was done fixing
up the shirt for him, and adjusting his pants, she stepped back, admiring the
young man in front of her. Gohan was
blushing slightly at her attentions, but liked the way he looked. "So how about that tour huh?" Gohan nodded his head, and fell into step
beside Nancy, as she led him down the hall, and out of the hospital.
The Planet Nebzen was a beautiful lush planet and it was filled with many creatures. But most notable are the Nebzens, the only intelligent race on the planet. The Nebzens are a vastly intelligent race, having interstellar flight, and a few colonies on other close planets. But besides all there technology, they are a kind race, not warlike like other races to note. But peaceful; using there technology for the good of everyone. Their planet is somewhat small compared to earths, and they only have one major city. But the city is hundreds of miles long, the chief of all the technological development, and space travel. Gohan was lucky enough not to crash land in the city; he crash-landed forty miles outside of it. Because if he had, the inhabitants might not be as clearly taken with him, and might actually resent him for the destruction he would have caused. NMH, Nebzulian main hospital, is in the heart of the city, it is where Gohan was taken from his crash site, and where he is just about to leave to go with Nancy on a small tour of the city.
Gohan walked out of the large swinging doors of the hospital, stopping to glance up at the clear blue sky. Gohan spotted small hovercrafts high in the air, zooming from destination to destination. He also saw many land vehicles still used in the large streets, and highways around him. "Come on." Nancy started to walk, and Gohan was forced to fall in beside her. They walked past large skyscrapers, of odd shapes and sizes compared to earths. Vast community centers, filled with trees and people, playing and having fun. Should I tell him where were really going? Nancy glanced over at Gohan, expecting to see awe written over his face, but was surprised to only see mild interest. Nah, it will be a surprise for him, besides he might not want to go, and I want to see how strong he really is.
Nancy led him around, through the beautiful city, but always led him in one general direction. She always led him towards the outskirts of the city, where the largest fighting facility on the planet is kept. It was home of the planets strongest warriors, men who trained there whole lives to achieve vast amounts of power, and were believed to be some of the strongest men in the galaxy. "Well here we are." Nancy said happily, like she had told him this was there destination the whole time. She stood beside the huge steel doors, and pulled one open for Gohan to go inside.
"What do you mean here we are? Where are we?" Gohan was a little surprised at this; he was expecting just a mild tour.
"This Gohan, is the largest fighting facility on the planet, I brought you here because I now what your power is." Gohan turned to her in shock.
"You mean you know about super sayin!?"
Nancy tilted her head in puzzlement. "Super sayin? What the heck is a super sayin? I don't know anything about a super sayin Gohan. What I do know is that your power level is somewhere around 753 thousand. And I brought you here because I want to see if that is all of it, or if you're hiding some."
Gohan felt take aback. "You mean this whole tour was just so you see what my power level is?" Gohan sighed. "Well fine, if you want to see how powerful I am, lets go in and I'll show you." I don't think I'll go ssj, I'll save that incase I need it a trump card, besides my normal level is far superior to there's. I can sense all the major powers on this planet, and they're not that impressive. Gohan walked through the door, and looked around. He was in a large circular office, there was a large wooden desk in the back, and beside it were two large doors. There was one man at the desk, a well-dressed guard. He straightened at the site of the two, and waited while they got closer to him. "Why good morning Nancy, what brings you here so early in the day? Souren isn't supposed to be here for a while." The man leaned intently over the desk to look at the two.
"No that's ok Smock, I'm not here to see Souren, I'm here to test this young mans power." She pointed to Gohan.
Smock looked them over, "well ok, I'll let you in to use the facility. Now what rank is he? 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5?"
"Oh, he's defiantly a five smock, defiantly a five. We should be in here for a while, so I'll sign us out when were done. See you later!" She waved to the old guard, and grabbed Gohan and pulled him through the large doors. Gohan gapped at what he saw.
There was defiantly nothing like this back home. Gohan walked into the huge circular room, filled with workout machines, equipment, Ki analyzers. There were gravity chambers off to the side, and far off in front, what appeared to be a large arena for sparring. Boy she wasn't kidding this place is huge!
Nancy smiled, as she watched the look on Gohan's face. Finally, I get something out of him. "Well how would you like to start?" Nancy glanced at the digital watch on her wrist. "Since this is the weekend, and it's so early, we should have the entire facility to our selves for a few hours." She walked up to Gohan, and led him over to a large oval room, with a computer counsel on the outside of it. "Why don't you get in there, it's a Ki reading device and you'll be able to power up, and I'll be able to read the results." Gohan nodded his head yes, and walked into the room.
"Hey! Nancy what are you doing here!?" Nancy turned in startle meant to see her eighteen-year-old boy friend Souren running over towards her.
Souren was a wonder child to the Nebzulians. He was only eighteen years old, and yet he
possessed the most power on the planet.
He was a tall, broad shouldered man, with long flowing blond hair, and
piercing blue eyes. He stopped in front
of Nancy; dressed in a run of the mill fighting Gi, ready to get an extra early
start on his training for the day.
"Nancy, what are you doing here so early?" Souren let his arms come around Nancy. "You come here to watch me train?"
Nancy let out a sigh. "No Souren, I can't watch you train today. I'm here with Gohan, the young boy that crash-landed outside of the city." She leaned into his arms for a second, and then pushed herself away.
"Why do you have that alien in the fighting arena?" Souren restrained himself from grabbing after Nancy. "I mean a weakling like him shouldn't be brought to a place like this." Souren let a cocky expression fall onto his face. "He could get hurt."
Nancy let out a giggle. "Doubtful Souren. You see I had a Ki readout of his body, and it's estimated to be around seven hundred fifty thousand." Nancy let a smile touch her lips, as she watched her boyfriend's mouth fall open. Souren's own power level was eight hundred thousand, but when he was only twelve, he didn't have anything near seven hundred.
"Are you kidding me!?" Souren went over to the metal dome, and peered in the viewing window, and watched as Gohan stood in the center, waiting for the cue to power up. Souren pointed into the window at Gohan. "That brat kid has that high of a power!? That alien has a power of seven hundred and fifty thousand!? I don't believe it. Make him power up, I want to see what he can really do."
Gohan had heard Souren's accusations that he was weak, and he felt a slight anger grip him. So he wants to see my power huh? Hm, I think I'll only show him a bit, then maybe the idiot will want to fight me. Gohan let an evil smile stretch the corner of his mouth. Then I'll show him how powerful I am.
"Ok, calm down Souren, it could have been a mistake, he might not be that strong, but I guess we'll find out now." Nancy walked over to the counsel, and hit the intercom button. "Gohan? Gohan can you hear me? Nod your head if you can hear me Gohan." Nancy watched as Gohan nodded his head the affirmative. "Good. Gohan I'm all set out here for the Ki read out, just let me kick in the shield, incase your power breaks through the sphere." Nancy quickly typed in the code to start up the shield.
"Yeah, like that twerp could ever break through this dome, it can resist a power of one million, and no one can break through it." Souren scoffed, as he peered closer into the window to examine Gohan.
Nancy glanced at Souren out of the corner of her eye. "Well we'll see soon enough won't we?" Nancy turned her full attention back to Gohan. "Ok Gohan, I'm ready, you can start whenever you're ready."
Souren and Nancy both looked on, as Gohan spread his legs, and brought his arms to his side. He then flexed his arms, you could see the muscles expand, and curled them up, so his fists were even with his chest. They could see his head tilt back farther, and his mouth slowly drop open, as he began to slowly build his power.
