Hi everyone here's chapter seven. Like I promise I have two special guests

on this chapter, so I'll introduce them right away and the can do the rest

of the work, so will Gohan and Videl please come out.

          *   Videl and Gohan walk out hand in hand   *

Hi guys, do you want to introduce the next chapter?

Videl: Sure

Gohan: Kay.

Videl: Before we get to the next chapter we have to do a word from our

sponsors.

Gohan: This is from nova, it says:

"That was great. Vegeta was actually being nice to Goten??!! Is Goten

going to follow his advice, and how will Gohan react when he finds out

what Goten did to Goku? More soon, please."

Gohan: Okay one more thing before we introduce the next chapter.

Videl: Disclaimer: Prinzess_Pippi does not own any of these characters

except for Gosin.

Gohan & Videl: Now for Chapter 7 of Goten's Abandonment.

"I just wish I knew why he hated me."

          Gohan looked at his father, as the tears were streaming down Goku's face.

 Gohan had never seen his father break down the way his was now. Not even

when Chi Chi died.

          "Dad, I am sorry, of course I'll help you find him. I'll be back in a

 flash." And Gohan took off out the door.

          While Vegeta was in the kitchen, fixing a snack, Goten had snuck in to

Bulma's private lab. Goten knew that Bulma had created a ki hiding silver chain

necklace, and he wanted it. He still didn't believe what Vegeta had said. All he

had to do was find the necklace. Goten opened the door to the lab and there

 right in the middle of the lab was the necklace, sitting in a table.

          What luck, thought Goten, now I don't have to rummage. Goten walked

to the table, picked up the necklace and stuck it in his pocket. Then he quickly

 headed back to the kitchen before Vegeta realized he was taking a long time

"washing his face".

          "Sit down." Vegeta told Goten when he walked into the kitchen. Goten

sat down and Vegeta placed a large bowl of rice in front of Goten and sat down

with his own bowl of rice.

          Goten started eating, while Vegeta just watched the young teen eat.

          Goku watched Gohan take off and then headed into the kitchen to call

around and see if he could track down Goten.

          He dialed Master Roshi's number.

          "Hello?" Oh Krillen had picked up the phone.

          "Hey Krillen, it's Goku. I was just wondering if you see Goten?"

          "No I haven't, why? Is he missing?" Krillen asked instantly concerned.

          "Yea, I can't seem to find him."

          "Well I can ask Marron, she just got home."   

          "Sure, thanks Krillen."

          "Okay, hold on."

          Goku waited on the phone, while Krillen checked with Marron.

          "No sorry Goku," Krillen said when he came back on the phone, "She

hasn't seen him today and she says he hasn't been in school for the past two weeks."

          "Okay thanks Krillen."

          "Would you like me to come over and help you look for him? Eighteen

said she'd come too."

          "Thank would be great Krillen, thanks."

          "No problem, see you soon. Bye"

          "Yea bye."

          Goku hung up the phone, trying figure out who else to call. Maybe he's

 over at Trunks' house. Goku thought. He picked up the phone again and dialed

Capsule Corp number.

          "Hello?"

          Vegeta had just picked up his chopstick to start eating when the telephone

rang.

          "I'll be right back." Vegeta told Goten. Goten just nodded and continued

 eating.

          Vegeta walked into the living room, to get a little privacy, and picked

up the phone.

          "Hello?"

          "Oh, hi Vegeta, it's Goku."

          "What do you want Kakarott. Your son is already bothering me enough."

          Goten lifted his from when he heard Vegeta say that he was bothering him,

great! I'm even bothering Vegeta! That's it, I'm out of here! Goten put the

necklace on, which automatically activates, and ran out the back door, and took off.

          "Oh, he's there?" Goku said excited.

          "Yes."

          "Oh thank god, can you tell him to come home? I need to talk to him."

          "Yes, hold on, I'll go tell him now, did you want to talk to him yourself."

          "Sure thanks Vegeta."

          Vegeta pressed the hold button on the telephone, walked back into the

kitchen to tell his young guest he was needed at home. When Vegeta got into

the kitchen, Goten's chair was empty and the rice in his bowl was only half gone.

Vegeta tried to sense Goten ki but he couldn't seem to find it. That's when

Vegeta remembered a few days ago;

                                                          *      Flashback    *

          "Vegeta, Vegeta! Guess what?" Bulma came running up to Vegeta excited.

          "What now Bulma?" Vegeta asked irritated, he was having a nice

 nap, and she had to disturb him.

          "I finally finished it!" Bulma announced proudly.

          "Finished what?" Vegeta questioned.

          "This." Bulma said holding up a silver chain necklace.

          Goten and Trunks looked up from where they were doing their homework.

          "What's that mom?" Trunks asked.

          "It's a necklace that disguises ones ki. So now if you guys ever hide

your ki when fighting, this'll do it. I am going to make a few more."

          "That's cool Bulma." Goten said.

          Vegeta just grunted and went back to sleep.

                                      *   End Flashback   *

          Vegeta ran quickly back to the phone, thinking to himself, something must

 be wrong at the Son house, Goten never acts this way."

          Vegeta picked up the phone and said, "Sorry Kakarott, he must have snuck

 out while I was on the phone with you." Feeling guilty he added, "I'll come over

and help you find him.

          "Oh, " Goku said sounding sad, "Thanks Vegeta."

          Vegeta hung up the phone and took off to Goku's house.

Videl: Okay everyone there's chapter 7

Gohan: Please Read and Review.
