Note: What to write, what to write? I've had a hard time deciding what exactly should go in this chapter, but I think I know what to put now. My life looks kinda busy coming up, so I don't know how much time I'll have to give this, also I hope to try my hand at writing a fight scene. I've got to learn to write one anyway if I plan on doing a good Tenkaichi Budokai portion of this story. Wish me luck!
BTW: As I said in the last chapter, I've started up a mailing list. To join just send me an e-mail at dbzfan345@hotmail.com aright? Anyway, enjoy the latest installment of "The Saiyan Warrior!"
Disclaimer: I own a PS2, a computer, the clothes on my back, and now a car! JOY! However as much I want to own DBZ, I don't so… DON'T SUE!!
Due to my very unpolished writing skills, there will undoubtedly be some OOC moments in this story, and all I can say is I'm sorry!
"Good morning class. I hope you all had an enjoyable weekend. But it's time to continue with the history of the Victorian era, also know as the Gilded Age. Please turn in your textbooks to page 909, chapter 31 'Politicos of note.'" The class groaned in dismay, but quickly complied. "Aright, who would like to read? Nobody? Well then, how about you Miss Erasa?" Erasa groaned under her breath.
"Yes Mrs. Spencer. 'The impact of big business on politics was measured not merely in legislation, but in the…'" The entire class began to drift into their daily 'stare out into space' phase, well everyone except Videl, who was currently very busy studying Gohan.
'Why do I get the feeling that Gohan has ever more secrets then the ones I figured out so far? I mean, I already know that he's a prince, the son of Goku, knows famous people like Yamcha, Bulma, and the Turtle Hermit, has a tail, knows a green man, and knows the 'amazing appearing boy.' But I know there's more to it than that.' She quickly averted her gaze as Gohan turned to look questionably at her.
'Jeeze, she's at it again. Doesn't she have anything better to do with her time than stare at me like a lab rat? Ah well, only a few more minutes till I'm free of her, and the rest of these bozos.' Gohan sighed, and turned his attention back towards the teacher.
"'…the election went to Grover Cleveland by a close margin, but what the victory signified, historians are still not agreed on.'" Erasa took a deep breath, and sat her book back down on the desk.
"Very good Erasa. Now then class, for homework tonight I want each of you to read to remainder of chapter 31, and complete the review questions. Everyone that is except Gohan, whom I'm sorry to say won't be joining us next term. As per request by his mother he has taken, and passed with flying colors might I add, all of the End Of Course exams. Officially, Gohan is now a high school graduate. Lets all have a round of applause for Gohan." Around half the class broke out into scattered applause, the loudest being Erasa and Sharpner. It was cut off however when the bell sounded, marking the end of Gohan's high school career.
"Wow Gohan," Erasa started as she packed up her things, "I knew you were smart, but wow! Finishing high school early is just, wow!" Sharpner nodded.
"Really man. It's kinda cool, you getting out early and all. Whatcha planning on doing with your newly found free time anyway?" Gohan smirked.
"Wouldn't you like to know? Well, it's been fun." 'Not.' "But I really got to be heading home now. See you all later." 'More like never, I hope.'
"Well, bye Gohan." Videl smiled. "Wish you luck!" 'Damn, damn, damn!!! Now how the hell am I going to find out anything else on Gohan? If he stops going to school, I'll never have any time to study him! Himmm…I wonder…'
"Well guys. Seeya." And with that Gohan stood, and left room 234 for the last time.
"Well, I wonder where Gohan is. Usually he's here by now. I'm really sorry for making you wait like this."
"It's aright Mrs. Son. I'm sure he's on his way." Chi Chi laughed.
"Of course your sure Mirai, you can sense his power level. Well, when he gets here tell him dinners at 6. I've got housework to do."
"Sure thing Mrs. Son, will do." Chi Chi smiled at Mirai, and left the room. After a few more minutes of waiting Mirai smirked and started towards the door, just as it opened. "Well, well. Look at what the cat dragged in. What took you so long? I've been waiting here forever!" Gohan laughed.
"Hey, waiting at my house isn't that bad! Besides, you try getting away from two Nosey Nancy's. They insisted on talking to me non-stop after getting out of school! Couldn't get them away from me in order to take off. At lest Videl left me alone this time." Mirai laughed.
"Well, this is truly an interesting story and all, but I do believe we have a spar to get to. Shall we?" Gohan smirked, nodding.
"Lead the way, oh mighty prince!" Mirai laughed, taking off into the clear blue sky.
"Ah, this spot looks good, don't you agree Gohan?" Mirai landed, examining his surroundings. Gohan landed a few feet behind him.
"Yep, looks pretty good. Open and flat without a hint of human settlement in sight. Well, ready?" Mirai turned around to face Gohan, nodding.
"Set." Gohan smirked.
"GO!" Gohan fazed out of sight, reappearing Mirai kicking him in the middle of his back. Mirai flew forward landing on his hands performing a back flip onto his feet. Spinning around Mirai powered to Super Saiyan mode speeding back towards Gohan at blinding speed. Gohan leaped out of the way, powering to level two. Mirai smirked.
"Hey Gohan, how's this for a plan. I really want to see how I'd fare against you at full power. Whadda ya say?" Gohan laughed.
"Your really ready to finish this spar that quickly? That wouldn't be much fun now would it?" Mirai scowled, starting to fume at the insult.
"I'm not WEAK!!" Powering to his max, Mirai shot towards Gohan with all his speed, Gohan smirked taking the full force of the attack. Unfortunately Gohan had forgotten to rein in his tail, allowing Mirai the chance he had been waiting for.
"What the fu…" Gohan's eyes drooped as his mind began to grow hazy. Mirai laughed.
"Well, well. Looks like you should have taken your own advice. Mirai Gohan once told me all about tails and their weakness. Ah well, too bad. Looks like I win this match." He let go of Gohan's tail, and turned to leave, stopping suddenly as he heard the last thing he wanted to hear.
"MASENKO-HA!!" Mirai's face contorted with fear as the blast raced towards him, knowing there was no way to block it.
'Jeeze, me and my big mouth.' The blast hit him, knocking him back a few hundred feet before hitting the ground hard, bloody and bruised. Gohan, still scowling, floated down toward his fallen friend.
"Seems like Mirai me forgot to add one little thing. If you grab ahold of any saiyan's tail in any type of battle, you had better make sure he's down for the count before you let go. You'll only make him mad." Gohan smiled down at his fallen friend. "Well, we had better get you fixed up. I think I got a Senzu bean around here somewhere." He shifted through his pocket, smiling as he came across the small bean. "Here ya go." He flicked it to Mirai, who weakly reached out, catching the bean in mid-flight, and slowly chew it.
"Augg. I forgot how bad these things tasted." Mirai grimaced as he swallowed the bean. "Well at lest they work. I feel stronger already." Gohan nodded.
"Well, we had better be heading back ma will kill me if I'm late for supper. Let's go!" Mirai nodded, taking off towards the Capsule Corp. as Gohan took of towards his home.
'Sigh. This has been a long day. Everybody always wants something from me, and never thanks me. Well, only about 5 minutes till quitting time. Sigh… They don't pay me enough for this.' The door opened slowly, not drawing any attention until…
"Mrs. Crombez?" Her head shot up from the computer monitor towards the figure at the door.
"Oh, good afternoon Videl. What can I do for you?"
"Uh, Mrs. Spencer sent me here to get a student's address so she can send him a few things. She meant to ask him before he left today, but she forgot." Mrs. Crombez smiled.
"That's aright dear. Now, which student was that exactly?" Videl began to smirk.
"Son Gohan."
Well? What do you think? Took me long enough, no? Well next time the plot will begin to speed up a bit. I was afraid that the story would stall during the high school era, but luckily I got through it with no major problems. Well, hope you enjoyed this chapter and don't forget to review!!

--Strange things in DB and DBZ--
1: At the beginning of Dragon Ball, and up through parts of DBZ, the earth was populated with many different animals. Namely the "Animal People." If you watch DB, you find these animal people everywhere, they almost rival the humans in number. However for some strange reason by the time Gohan starts high school, they have all but vanished. Not a single one seems to live in Satan City at all! Nor do any seem to have decided to attend the 25th Tenkaichi Budokai. Where did they all go?
