Silver Demon, Golden Knight
Chapter 5- Possession
[Authors Note: More in Gohan's POV ^^ So it'll be less confusing]
Gohan was helpless against Videl's kisses. They were so unexpected; he actually didn't know what to think. The shock of the moment unnerved him and he pushed Videl away lightly. "Videl?" he asked his voice squeaking.
"Son Gohan," Videl answered.
That was strange. Videl had never said his whole last name before. What was going on. "Are you okay?"
"Of course I'm okay!" Videl snapped.
Then Videl stumbled on to her knees. Gohan went to her but a force blocked him from touching her. He was forced to watch the horrid details. Videl started to scream in pain as her shoulder blades bulged, like something was struggling to get out. Then all of a sudden they burst blood flying two wings sprouted. In the meanwhile Videl was screaming loudly. Gohan couldn't move, and then it was finished. Finished before it even began.
Videl stood up and faced Gohan. Her eyes were once again the deadened look he had once saw in class. She shook her wings out, but they were still dripping blood. It seemed that her wings were bleeding. Her shirt was in shambles it barely covered anything and her shorts looked a dark red instead of the usual black. That wasn't what got to Gohan, it was what happened next.
Videl smiled her dead eyes showing no emotion at all. "Gohan." She said.
The creature that was standing in front of him was not Videl, or at least it wasn't the Videl he knew. Gohan knew it. Her ki…was different; it reminded him of Master Roshi's. There was an ancient power emanating from her. An ancient evil power…
"W-who are you!" Gohan said. "Where's Videl?"
"Videl's still here," the creature said coldly. "I have merely taken over."
"Who are you." Gohan asked again dangerously.
"Enjeli," the creature answered.
"What are you?" Gohan asked.
Enjeli's wings flapped angrily. "Ask your guardian!" she said scathingly. "Kami should know!"
Then before Gohan could do anything, Enjeli launched herself in the air and swiftly flew out into the store, leaving a trail of blood in her wake. All Gohan could do was stand there, disbelieving. This creature, Enjeli had taken Videl. Gohan was scared, and horrified at himself. The girl he loved was in pain and he couldn't do anything—The girl he loved.
It was the 'L' word. It had just popped up in his head. Did he really love her? He was too scared to help her when Videl was in pain. Was he really worthy of her love? Gohan looked at the sky. He could barely detect Videl's ki but it was there, but before that there was one place he had to go…
* * * * *
"Videl?" Bulma asked. "A demon?"
Gohan nodded. The brief's house was the first place he had went to after Enjeli's appearance and he was now seated in the living room with Bulma who was drinking coffee. "She mentioned Kami, she said that he would know about her."
"Her?" Bulma asked downing her coffee in one swift gulp.
"She called herself Enjeli," he spat out the name.
"Hmm…I guess the only thing we can do is see Piccolo and Dende," Bulma pointed out as a matter of factly.
"What do you want with the Nameks woman?"
It was Vegeta. From the looks of it, he had just finished training in the gravity room. He was wiping his face with a towel and his face was in his usual scowl. "Something happened to Videl."
"Videl…" Vegeta said closing his eyes in concentration. "That idiot Satan's daughter?"
"She turned into some sort of demon angel," Bulma said.
The three started to walk from the living room following Bulma's lead. "Demon Angel?" Vegeta grunted. "What kind of rubbish is that?"
Gohan kept quiet while husband and wife talked about Videl's situation. He wanted to do something. He wanted to hurt Enjeli for what she was doing, but Enjeli was Videl and Videl was Enjeli. What one felt the other felt and hell would freeze over before he'd hurt Videl in any way. There was nothing he could do at the moment except hope that Piccolo knew something.
"Why don't you just beat the demon out of her?" Vegeta said in irritation.
The look that Gohan gave Vegeta was so fierce that Vegeta flinched from it, for a spilt second, before reverting to his normal stance. Bulma put a hand on Gohan's shoulder. "Look Gohan, we don't want to hurt Videl, I'm sure we'll find another way."
They had reached the outside of the house. Bulma took out a capsule from her pocket, pressed and threw it. The capsule exploded into a small airplane. Bulma lifted the door open and beckoned for Gohan to come. "Let's go!"
Gohan got in the plane, leaving a grumbling Vegeta behind and flew off with Bulma.
* * * * *
"What? Where's Piccolo?" Bulma asked confused.
Dende the newly appointed guardian of the earth shrugged. "He went out to train."
"And Piccolo can be anywhere!" Bulma said exasperatedly.
"What's wrong brother?" Dende asked noticing Gohan's glum face.
"It's Videl," Gohan said. "Hercule Satan's daughter, she—she was possessed by a demon."
Dende gripped Gohan's arm
tightly. "What?" he asked urgently. "Did anything happen?"
Gohan was shocked at Dende's sudden change in composure. "She sprouted wings that seem to be bleeding…and her eyes it was like she was dead but not quite."
Dende looked grave. "What did the demon call itself?"
"Enjeli,"
"Do you know anything about her?" Bulma asked impatiently.
"I have a feeling that I know something about it," Dende replied. "But I bet Piccolo knows!"
So they waited talking nervously to each other for a while, or at least Bulma and Dende talked while Gohan sat staring into the sky. Bulma and Dende exchanged concerned looks. Finally after what seemed like an hour, Piccolo flew in and landed.
"Piccolo!" Gohan stood up the moment he saw him.
"I don't think you came for a visit." Piccolo said bluntly. "What happened?"
"Videl Satan has been possessed by an incubus (no not the band x.x)," Dende said.
Piccolo shared the same shocked expression the Dende has experience when he had first heard the news. "Mauloron!"
"No," Dende replied. "It called itself Enjeli."
"Wait!" Gohan said before Piccolo could respond again. "What is an incubus?"
Dende faced Gohan. "An incubus is a type of demon that feeds off a person by giving people nightmares."
"So?" Bulma asked. "Why is Videl sprouting wings?"
"Well Videl has been possessed by a morph incubus," Dende replied.
"Videl has been forced to turn into her nightmare," Piccolo said cutting what would have been a long explanation short.
"There are two ways to expel the demon," Piccolo said. "One is the best way to make sure the demon will leave, the other…may not work and can only be used once."
"What is it?" Gohan said eagerly. "I'll do it!"
Dende and Piccolo looked at each other. "Gohan," Piccolo said. "You may not want to hear this but—"
"Tell me!"
Piccolo sighed. "The best way to expel the demon is to kill its host."
