I am so sorry! Gomen nasai! I promised a lot of people that I will have this up about 6 months ago. I just had a lot of stuff going on during the summer and when I started high school then I was swamped with homework especially my Biology homework. 

I do not own Dragonball Z.

A Friend Returns

Part II

"Hello," Mirai Trunks said.

Videl walked over to Erasa and introduced Mirai Trunks, "Erasa, this is Trunks and Trunks this is Erasa."

"Hello," they said in unison.

Chibi Trunks and Goten ran out of the house. (They were still chasing each other) "Trunks cut it out," Gohan said.  "Trunks!" Chibi Trunks still ignored him.

"Let me try," Mirai Trunks said. "Trunks get over here now!"

Chibi Trunks stopped short and Goten toppled over him, "Get off me Goten," he said pushing him off.

"What on your first try?" Gohan yelled.

"Yep." Mirai Trunks grinned.

"How?"

"I dunno. I guess I have a way with kids. Plus I told him I know all about his family and his weaknesses so he's afraid of that."

"How does he know all about him?" Erasa asked.

"Well it's kind of hard to explain." Videl said.

"Oh okay then what do you want to do then?" Erasa asked.

"Oh not this again!" Gohan said smacking his forehead.

"What?" Erasa asked.

"We just had an argument about that.  We wasted thirty minutes on trying to figure that out." Mirai Trunks said.

"Well how bout I decide?" Erasa asked.

"Sure be my guest." Videl said.

"How about we talk?"

"About what?" Chibi Trunks whined.

"About how cute you really are," she said kneeling down and pinching his cheeks. Mirai Trunks blushed and Gohan laughed.

"Let go," Chibi Trunks said jumping back and glaring at her and she ruffled his hair.

They heard a loud voice coming from inside, "Vegeta! Where did you move my dresser?"

"Looks like they're at it again." Mirai Trunks laughed. "They used to do that a lot."

"They sure do have fun with that especially Vegeta," Gohan laughed.

"Well we better help Mom find the dresser. Hopefully he didn't put it on top of our neighbor's house again."

"Again?" Erasa asked.

"Yep he has a tendency to do that." They walked into the house and the phone suddenly rang.

"Trunks? Could you get that please?" Bulma yelled from upstairs. "Vegeta where did you go?!"

"Sure thing Mom," Mirai Trunks yelled turning around picking up the phone, "Moshi Moshi?"

"Uh hi is this…" Krillin said but Mirai Trunks interrupted him.

"Krillin?!"

"Yeah."

"What's up? Are you still living with Master Roshi?" Mirai Trunks asked.

"Uh… yeah. Who is this?" he asked.

"You don't recognize my voice?"

"Nope give me a clue."

"Okay. Let me think.  Here's one, I haven't seen you for many years. Oh! I know! How about I give you the easiest clue? I'm a Super Saiyan."

"Trunks?!"

"Yep," Mirai Trunks laughed.

"What are you doing here?" Krillin asked.

"I wanted to see everyone again."

"Oh okay then.  The reason I called was because Marron, my wife and I are going to go to the beach and I was wondering if you guys would like to come."

"Sure thing Krillin, but don't you live on an island I mean you're completely surrounded by water?" Mirai Trunks asked.

"Yeah well that's' all that Marron has seen her whole life and truthfully," there was a pause to make sure Master Roshi wasn't listening, "she doesn't really like him and neither does my wife."

"That's fine by me we'd love to come and by the way who's Marron?" Mirai Trunks asked.

"Oh sorry I forgot.  She's my daughter. Do you know what beach we'll be at?" Krillin laughed.

"No, but don't worry we'll find you and if I can't sense you Father probably will.  We might be a little late since Father is being his usual self."

"That's fine. Ja-ne," Krillin said.

"Ja-ne" Mirai Trunks said and hung up the phone. "Man," he said smacking his forehead, "I forgot to ask who his wife is.  Darn it."

"Trunks calm down, I'll tell you," Gohan said. Erasa was lounging on the couch listening. "This will come to you as a great shock to you, but I beg you not to kill me please.  Nor her or Krillin because you'll be very angry." Gohan took a deep breath and looked into Mirai Trunks' confused face. "He married Android 18."

It took a couple of seconds for it to register, "WHAT??!!!" he yelled at the top of his lungs, his eyes full of rage and hate.  He completely forgot about Erasa. Bulma ran downstairs to see him pick up Gohan by his shirt. "Are you telling me that you didn't kill her Gohan?!"

"Trunks I know she and 17 did terrible things to you in the future that's why you came back in the first place, to warn us about it, but this 18 has changed she's not like she used to be.  She loves Krillin."

"Androids can't love." Mirai Trunks said coldly.

"Trunks put Gohan down," Bulma said. "Everybody can love. Androids, aliens, even your father can. Now what did Krillin want?"

"He invited us to go to the beach with Her, Marron and himself."

"We'd love a vacation even it's a couple of hours." Bulma said.

"Who's going on a vacation Woman?" Vegeta's rough voice came from a dark corner of the room as he stepped out.

"Everybody is, including you." Bulma said.

"I didn't sense you Father." Mirai Trunks.

"Of course you didn't, that was the intention I was suppressing my Ki." Vegeta said glaring at his son. He turned back to Bulma, "I'm not going."

"Of course you are." Bulma simply said.

"Who says?"

"Why I do, now go get the beach things. Now!"

"Fine!" Vegeta yelled leaving the room.

"Videl, Erasa, Gohan, Goten, Trunks do you want to come too?" Bulma asked.

"Of course I want to go Mom!" Chibi Trunks said crossing his arms.

"Yes I know that's why I didn't ask you."

'But…'

'Mirai Trunks was fuming with anger again, 'I'm not…'

'Trunks just go and see what she's like now,' Gohan said.

'I'd rather die again than see her.' Mirai Trunks said with his fists clenched.

'Again?' Erasa asked.

'Just forget about it that also is hard to explain.' Videl said.

'Trunks you are going if you like it or not.' Bulma said with her motherly warning tone.

Mirai Trunks bowed his head, 'Fine, but I'm going to train and completely ignore her."

"Do whatever you want," Bulma sighed, "Videl do you want to go too?"

"Sure it'd be great seeing Krillin again, but I have to stop at home too." Videl said.

"I wanna go! I wanna go! I wanna go!" Goten said pulling on Gohan's sleeves.

"Of course you're going squirt, I have to watch you." Gohan said.

"YEAH!!" Goten yelled jumping in the air and running around.

"Erasa do you want to come too?" Bulma said.

"Okay I already have my bathing suit on, I was planning on going swimming after I leave here, but the beach is better.  I'll have to borrow a towel and some sun screen too if it's all right with you."

"Yeah that's fine we have loads of those things here." Bulma said cheerfully.

"Okay then Videl, Goten and I are going to get our beach things. Unless you have stuff here for him." Gohan said.

"Yeah actually we do, Goten left some things here when he went swimming last week." Bulma said.

"There's a pool here?" Erasa asked.

"Yeah it's an Olympic sized one." Goten said.

"I didn't know that."

"It's two floors below this one." Bulma said pointing.

"Wow! Exactly how many floors are there here?" Erasa asked.

"About eight.  Six above us and two below." Chibi Trunks said.

"Anyways Videl and I will be back in about five minutes okay?" Gohan said.

"Okay see ya soon." Bulma said.

"Gohan and Videl walked out the door and Gohan headed to Videl's house, "I thought we were going to your house first," Videl said.

"Nah yours is closest," Gohan said.  A little while later they landed in front of her house and they went in.  Videl went to her room and Gohan followed her in.  "I still can't imagine having a room this big."

"Yeah well I got used to it," Videl said walking in her bathroom and closing the door. Gohan sat down on the bed and Videl said through the door, "Gohan there is some beach stuff in the closet next to the bathroom door if you want to bring some stuff.  The capsules are labeled."

"Okay sure." He said getting up and opening the closet door. He pressed a button that was labeled beach stuff.  A drawer popped out and Gohan read the labels of each of the capsules.  He picked some out.  He picked a beach ball, inflatable killer whale (for Trunks and Goten), and a beach blanket, "Videl? Do you want me to get a beach towel for you too?"

"Will you please? Thanks."

He grabbed a beach towel and a volleyball set.  He pressed a button and the drawer slid back into the wall.  He stepped backwards and closed the door and he saw Videl standing by the bathroom door.  Gohan looked at her and saw how the blue one-piece bathing suit matched her eyes, "V-Videl you look beautiful."

"It's just a bathing suit," she said blushing, "but thank you."

Gohan put the capsules in his pocket and said, "Come on we'd better hurry to my house."

"Okay just a sec." Videl said grabbing a shirt and a pair of shorts.  She and Gohan ran outside and headed to Gohan's house.  She put her shirt and shorts on.  A couple of minutes later they arrived at the Son house and they walked inside.

"Mom? Videl, Goten and I are going to the beach with everybody else is that all right with you?"

"That's fine with me." She said.

"Thanks." He said running to his room and changing into a pair of swimming trunks.  He grabbed a shirt, towel and ran to the kitchen where Videl was waiting for him.

"Ready?" she asked.

"Yep," Gohan replied. "Bye mom love ya." He said kissing her on the forehead.  They flew as fast as they could and arrived back at Capsule Corp. four minutes and fifty-nine seconds after they left. "We're back!" Gohan said.

"Mirai Trunks crossed his arms and said, "Well it wasn't five minutes Gohan you lied."

"At least we're not later than five minutes."

"Um. I have a question."  Erasa said. "If Gohan lives more than five hundred miles away how could he get there, back, to Videl's house, and back in five minutes?"

"Four minutes and fifty-nine seconds to be exact." Mirai Trunks said.

"At that moment Chibi Trunks ran in followed by a smirking Bulma in a bathing suit and behind her was a VERY angry Vegeta. Bulma made him put some swim trunks on. "Ready?" Bulma asked.

"Yes." Everybody said together.  They all piled in the air car. Gohan sat behind Bulma so he can help locate Krillin.

"Krillin's that way about twenty minutes away in this thing."

"Well I have to use this one because the other one is broken down." Bulma said.

"How does he know where Krillin is?" Erasa whispered to Videl.

"It's simple you just use your ki." Vegeta said.

"I can almost sense people. I try though.  I'm still being taught by the Great Saiyaman." Videl said.

"How close is she from getting it right Gohan?" Erasa asked.

"What are you talking about?" he asked.

"Well if the Great Saiyaman is teaching her and you are him so that means you should know." Erasa said.

"How many times do I have to tell you? I'm not the Great Saiyaman."

"Well then how can you use that ki thingy?" she asked.

"Everybody in my family can do it and it's very popular now." Gohan said simply.

"Here we are!" Bulma said landing in the parking lot and capsuleising the air car.

They walked to the sand and she asked," so where is Krillin. This way or that way?" she said pointing.

"Let me try." Videl said. "Are they that way about twenty feet?" she asked pointing to the left.

Chibi Trunks jumped on her shoulders, "Close, that way about twenty-nine feet." He said pointing.

"Okay let's go then," Gohan said.

They walked that way and when Trunks and Goten saw Krillin they raced each other to him, "Ha ha I win!" Chibi Trunks grinned.

"Only 'cause you pushed me Trunks," Goten said.

"Hey guys!" Krillin said.

"Mirai Trunks looked over Krillin's shoulder and saw 18 with a little blond kid.  He clenched his teeth and his hands formed fists.

Gohan could feel Mirai Trunks' ki rising and he put a hand on his shoulder, "You don't have to talk to her or even look at her, but you have to go say hi, she probably remembers you."

"Gohan!"

"Come on," Gohan said pulling Mirai Trunks to 18.

"Hello 18 how are you?" Gohan asked.

"Pretty good." She replied with her usual expressionless face.

"Do you remember Trunks?" Gohan asked.

18 looked at Mirai Trunks, "Of course. He's a pretty good fighter." Mirai Trunks' hand was itching to grab his sword and slice her head off, but he did realize that she did change a little bit.  He would never forgive 17 and 18 for what they did though and even though he destroyed them in his time he still has nightmares.

"This is the best place you found Krillin?" Bulma asked.

"Well 18 was offering to clear the area, but I told her not to hurt anyone so we just picked this spot." He said shrugging.

"Well where would you rather be?" Bulma asked.

"Over there." He said pointing.

"Okay then. Vegeta!" she sang.

"What do you want woman?" Vegeta grunted.

"Could you do me a favor please?"

"What's in it for me?" he said.

"I'll leave you alone for the rest of the day." She said smiling.

"Fine what?"

"Could you walk over there and ask those nice people to move?"

"As long as you leave me alone."

"Deal."

Vegeta walked over to where Bulma showed them. He glared at the people and was about to open his mouth when they all packed up and moved somewhere else, "Easy," he simply said.

Bulma walked over there and decapusleised the their things and the people next to them said, "You guys have everything in a capsule. Those things are expensive when you buy them for everything."

"Well of course I have everything in capsules, I even have some houses in some of them. My father invented them." Bulma said stepping out from behind Gohan.

"Oh Mrs. Briefs I didn't see you."

Gohan was talking to Videl and Mirai Trunks. Goten poked Gohan, but he didn't listen. He yelled, "Gohan!"

"What Goten!?"

"Did you know that if-if you put your face in the water the dolphins will see you an' they'll come to you and you can pet them?" Goten said. [1]

"Goten has anyone told you you're stupid?" Chibi Trunks said, then pulled on his mother's shirt, "Mom can Goten and I go swim?" he asked.

"Sure honey, go ahead."

"Yay! Thanks Mom!" he said running to the water, "Goten! Last one there is a monkey brain!"

"Hey Trunks not fair you cheater!" Goten said following him.  They splashed around a bit and they dove under the waves. Goten's head popped back up, "Hey Gohan! Lookie what I found!" he yelled pulling up a big fish.

"Yeah wow Goten that's a big one." Gohan replied.

Goten dropped the fish and five minutes later he found a bigger fish. "Hey Gohan look at the size of this one!"  he said holding it up too.

"Yeah squirt it's even bigger than the other one." Gohan said.

A couple minutes later he found a shark.  It was about forty-five feet long. He lifted it up and the people swimming in the water screamed and ran away.  Everybody on the beach packed up and left. "Hey Gohan look! This one's really big! Can we eat it?"

"Goten that's a shark!" Erasa yelled.

"What's a shark?" he asked with his father's blank look.

"A shark is a fish with sharp teeth and it'll eat anything." Erasa said.

"Well can we eat it Gohan?" Goten asked with his puppy dogface.

"Sure you guys can eat is as a snack." Bulma said.

"Snack?" Erasa asked.

"Yep you'd be surprised how much food Goten, Gohan, Trunks, Trunks and Vegeta eats," Videl said, "You'd be surprised at how much food only Goten and Trunks eat."

"Okay we'll have to cook it first. Does anyone have firewood?" Erasa asked.

"I brought some." Bulma said. "Okay let's start the fire." Gohan said.

"Okay!" Goten said as Bulma pulled out a capsule and opened it.  There was a puff of red smoke and there was a pile of wood.  Gohan, Goten, Chibi Trunks, and Mirai Trunks put all the wood in the fire pit.

"Did anyone bring a lighter?" Bulma asked.

"I'll light it Mom." Mirai Trunks said. He walked up to the pile o' wood and turned his back to everyone.  A couple of seconds later there was a roaring fire.

"How'd you do that?" Erasa asked.

"Secret." Mirai Trunks said grinning.  He looked over at his mom and she was talking to 18. His anger was rising again.  Gohan could sense Mirai Trunks' ki rising again.  He raised his own ki to get Mirai Trunks' attention, but Mirai Trunks didn't respond.  Gohan powered up to Mystic Gohan.  Mirai Trunks stopped and looked around, "whose power is that?" he thought.  He looked at Gohan and nearly fell over, "That's Gohan? How did he get to be so strong? He's not even Super Saiyan!"

"That's better." Gohan said to himself and powered down.  Mirai Trunks walked up to him.

"How did you get so powerful?" Mirai Trunks asked.

"All I have to do is power up and I'll be as strong as a Super Saiyan three." Gohan said proudly.

"What's a Super Saiyan three?"

"Do you remember when I ascended from a Super Saiyan?"

"Yes." Mirai Trunks said slowly.

"Well there is a level farther than that.  It's called a Super Saiyan three." Gohan said, "Dad was the first one to do it."

"Who was the second?"

"Gotenks." Gohan said simply.

"Gotenks?"

"Yep do you want to meet him?"

"Sure," Mirai Trunks said.

"Goten! Trunks! Would you come here for a minute please?" Gohan called.

"Okay!" they both yelled running to them.

"Could you do us a favor?"

"Sure what is it?" Chibi Trunks asked.

"Could you show Trunks Super Saiyan three Gotenks?"

"Okay! It's been a while since we last fused." Chibi Trunks asked.

They were about to power up and go Super Saiyan when Gohan stopped them.  "Wait hold on! I forgot Erasa can't watch, I'll be right back." He said.  Then he walked over to Videl and Erasa. "Videl could you come here for a few minutes? I need to ask you something."

"Sure thing Gohan, Erasa I'll be right back." Videl said.

"That's fine."

"Videl could you do a favor for me and somehow keep Erasa from going over there? Goten and Trunks are going to show Trunks Super Saiyan three," Gohan said.

"Sure."

"Thanks, Come on guys! Bulma we'll be right back in about twenty-five minutes. Trunks and Goten are going to fuse. See ya later." Gohan said waving.

Gohan, Goten, Chibi Trunks, and Mirai Trunks walked off and when they couldn't see the others anymore they stopped.  "Ready Goten?" Chibi Trunks asked.

"Ready." Goten replied standing next to Chibi Trunks.  They aligned their powers and made them exactly the same as Super Saiyans.  They pointed to the outside of one another with their arms extended and took three steps to each other, on their toes while bringing their hands over their heads while saying "fu." They flung their arms to the other side away from each other and brought their outside legs up, lifted it while their knee was facing each other and said "sion." They arched their arms over their heads touching their pointer fingers and bringing their knee that's lifted up and they flung it to the side saying "ha." There was a flash of blinding light as the two forms became one.  The light went away as fast as it came and Super Saiyan three Gotenks was standing there.

"Here comes Super Saiyan three Gotenks!" he said with a mix between Goten and Trunks' voice.

_______________

"Wha?" Vegeta said looking up from what he was doing. "Why is Gotenks here?" he thought.

"Gohan is showing Trunks what a Super Saiyan three is. And other than Goku, Gotenks is the only one and right now Goku is training on Dende's lookout with Piccolo."

_______________

On Dende's lookout.

Goku stopped sparring as he focused his attention on Earth for the first time that day.  He felt Gotenks. "Are they in some sort of trouble for them to have to use Super Saiyan three Gotenks?" Goku wondered. "I'll see you later Piccolo I have to go." Goku said as he suppressed his ki and focused his attention on Gotenks' power and used instant transmission. Less than a second later he arrived about fifty feet away behind Mirai Trunks.

"Gotenks I want you to meet Trunks." Gohan said.

"Gotenks crossed his arms and smirked, "He doesn't look that strong, come on let's fight," he said.

"Gotenks no don't. You don't have to fight everyone you see."

"But I want to!" Gotenks whined.

"No, what did piccolo teach you?" Gohan asked.

"To listen to my elders," Gotenks said rolling his eyes.

"That's right, now if you see anyone you don't know then fly up a tree okay?" Gohan said.

"Yeah yeah whatever.  So what am I supposed to do?" Gotenks asked.

"Show Trunks what a Super Saiyan three can do." Gohan said.

"What do you want me to do?" Gotenks asked.

"I dunno why don't you use a Kamehameha?"

"Sure I'll hit him with my strongest one."

"No, no you might kill him if you do." Gohan said.

"He's not that strong then."

"Hey I am too strong I defeated android 17 and 18." Mirai Trunks said.

"You couldn't have 'cause 18 is over there." Gotenks said pointing behind him to where camp is.

"If you haven't noticed Gotenks is a totally different person than Goten or Trunks." Gohan said.

"I'll use my weakest blast." Gotenks said.

"Okay I'm ready." Mirai Trunks said transforming.

"Ka…Me…Ha…Me…Ha!" Gotenks said shooting it at Mirai Trunks.

M Trunks tried to block it, but he couldn't because Gotenks is really strong. It didn't hurt him that much he got singed on his arms, but that was it.

"Okay now, here's my most powerful one." Gotenks said, "Ka… Me…"

"Gotenks don't do it!" Goku yelled.

"Huh?" Gohan said. "Dad!" he yelled.

"Hiya Gohan! Hello Trunks." Goku said.

"I thought you were training with Piccolo." Gohan said.

"You mean he's not dead?" M Trunks asked.

"No he's not," Gohan laughed.

"But I thought Shenron couldn't grant the same wish twice." M Trunks said.

"He can't. Elder Kai used his own life to bring Dad back." Gohan said.

All of a sudden Gotenks disappeared and was in the nearest palm tree. "What are you doing up there?" Goku asked.

"I told him if he sees anyone he doesn't know that he should go up a tree." Gohan said.

"Oh well who's coming?" Goku asked as M Trunks changed back.

"Erasa and Videl," Gohan said as he gave Videl a disappointed look and then he looked at the ground.

"I thought you two were with Trunks and Goten." Erasa said.

"We are." M Trunks said.

"Well where are they?" Erasa asked.

"We're right here!" Trunks and Goten said sliding down the palm tree.  "We were looking for coconuts."

"Why were you looking for coconuts?" Erasa asked.

"To eat with the shark." M Trunks said.

"Food?" Goku said with drool coming out of his mouth. "I'm hungry."

"Erasa this is Goku, Gohan and Goten's dad." Videl said.

"Oh hello Goku." Erasa said.

"Hello." Goku said.

"We have to cook the food first." Chibi Trunks said.

"Okay let's go back then." Goten said.

"I know of a faster way!" Goku said. He put a hand over Chibi Trunks and Goten's head and they disappeared.

Erasa didn't see them disappear because she was talking to Videl, "What's wrong with you and Gohan?"

"He asked me to do something, but I wasn't able to do it." Videl said slowly.

"Well why don't you talk to him?" Erasa asked.

"Because I don't want him to yell at me.

"Gohan doesn't yell."

"Oh yes he does I have seen him."

"Videl! Go talk to him. The others and I will go ahead, Hey! Where'd Trunks, Goten and Goku go?" Erasa asked.

"They went on ahead." M Trunks said.

"Okay well let's hurry back to camp then." Erasa said and M Trunks and her walked back.

Videl went over to Gohan, "Gohan?"

"You broke your promise. What if Erasa saw Gotenks?" Gohan said.

"I'm sorry Gohan! She won't take no for an answer. And she didn't see Gotenks so what's the big deal?" Videl said.

"If she did I would have to tell her everything. It's best to keep our powers a secret." Gohan said.

"She is our friend though." Videl said.

"Yeah, but…"

"Gohan will you listen to me? I'm sorry I just don't want you to be mad at me." She said giving him a big hug. "Will you forgive me?"

"Of course, let's go back." Gohan said putting his arm around her shoulder and giving her a kiss on her cheek then they headed back to camp.

____________

Bulma was busy cooking the shark. "Where have Gohan and Videl gone off to?" she wondered. "Erasa and the others arrived a few minutes ago. "A romantic stroll down the beach. I have to get a picture of them when they get back."

____________

"Gohan?" Videl said looking up.

"Yes?" He replied.

"I love you." [2]

"I love you too Videl." He said smiling.

___________

Bulma looked up to see two figures coming closer and she grabbed her camera. She zoomed in on them and saw the look on their faces. "Those two were made for each other." She said whispered to herself as she snapped a photo.  "Chichi'll love this." She squealed joyfully. A few minutes later Gohan and Videl were standing next to the cooking shark.

"Hey Bulma! What's the use of coking it? It'll still go to the same place." Goku said.

"Well if you don't want to cook it then just go right ahead and eat it then." Bulma said.

"Yeah!" all the Saiyans cheered except for Goku and Vegeta. Goku's mouth was full of food already and Vegeta headed straight for the food. Within about two minutes the entire shark was eaten except for its jaws. Vegeta laid down on his stomach using his arms as a pillow and within a few minutes he fell into a deep sleep.

"Hey Trunks," Bulma said motioning Chibi Trunks closer. "Why don't you and Goten bury Vegeta in the sand. Just leave his head uncovered okay?"

"Okay!" he said, his face lighting up. He walked over to Goten with an evil glint in his eye and replayed what Bulma said. Chibi Trunks searched through his capsules and found what he was looking for.  He decapsuleized them and a huge bucket and two shovels came out. He picked the bucket up and tossed a shovel to Goten.  They ran to the shore where there was wet sand and they started piling the sand into the bucket.  When it was full they ran back to where Vegeta was and started on their work.  They decided to make a tower. When it got to be taller than they were they looked to see if Erasa was looking, but her back was to them.  They floated to be able to reach the point that they were at.  When the bucket got empty they took turns on getting more sand.  When they were done the tower looked like the Eiffel Tower. The tower was about fifteen feet tall and Videl saw it.  She looked in a bag and pulled out a flag.  She flew to the top and put it in.

"There," she said.

"Mom." M Trunks said.

"Yes?" Bulma said.

"I thought you promised that you'd leave Father alone." M Trunks said.

"I am."

"Well then where did they get that idea?" M Trunks said pointing to the tower.

"Wow! I didn't think that they'd build the Eiffel Tower." Bulma said surprised. "What?" she said when M Trunks looked at her. "Okay fine all I did was give them a little idea that's all."

"Mom! Lookie what we did!" Chibi Trunks said running up to her.

"Yeah good job." She said.

"So um Videl that's Gohan's dad right?" Erasa asked.

"Yeah." Videl said.

"Doesn't he look awfully young to be Gohan's father?" Erasa asked.

"No he's about ten years younger than Vegeta and Bulma." Videl said.

"Well how old are they?" Erasa asked.

"In their mid forties." Videl said.

"Wow!  Vegeta doesn't look that old." Erasa said.

"Nope." Videl said.

"Well anyways I'm going swimming." Erasa said.

"Okay I think I'll go take a nap." Videl said then she lied on a towel and fell right asleep.

About five minutes later Gohan's sharp ears heard something that sounded like a scream. He looked around knowing that something was wrong as he felt a cold chill crawl down his back.  He ran to the water and shaded his eyes trying to see over the waves.  "Goten! Come here please?" he said, his voice sounding urgent.

"Kay! C'mon Trunks!" Goten said running as fast as he could.

"When he and Chibi Trunks was standing right behind Gohan they knew something was wrong, "Trunks, Goten go in the water and try to find Erasa." Gohan said. "I'll fly overhead and try to see her from up there."

"Okay." They said running into the water.

Gohan jumped into the air and now he could hardly feel Erasa's ki. "Erasa!" He yelled looking around in the water. He spotted something slip under the water and he dived.

____________

Bulma watched Gohan run to the water and heard him yell Goten's name. Chibi Trunks and Goten ran to him and she saw Gohan point.  Then Gohan jumped into the air and a little while later she saw him dive.

____________

Gohan grabbed Erasa's hand before she went too deep and pulled her up. "Trunks! Goten I found her!" he yelled.

As Gohan got closer Bulma saw that Gohan was carrying a limp body in his hands. "Oh my gosh! Erasa!" she yelled.

Videl woke up and Bulma's yell got the attention of Goku and Mirai Trunks who were so engrossed in their conversation that they didn't notice anything was wrong.  Bulma took out a capsule from her pocket and opened it. A house appeared next to the camp. "Put her on the bed Gohan."

"Okay Bulma." He said.

"Erasa! what happened?" Videl yelled.

"She was caught in a riptide and was pulled out to sea." Gohan said. He put Erasa down on the bed and checked if she was breathing, but she wasn't.  "She's not breathing. Videl lock the doors we don't need a crowd in here."

"Okay," Videl said as Gohan started mouth to mouth.

"Come on Erasa." He said as he did it for the third time. Videl was standing in a corner biting her nails. Erasa coughed up water and opened her eyes.

"Erasa!" Videl said and she ran up to her and gave her a hug.

Gohan walked out and was nearly knocked over by everybody.  "She's fine she just needs some rest."

"Goku go to Corrin's tower and get some senzu beans," Bulma said.

"All right." Goku said.

____________

"Videl you are so lucky," Erasa said.

"Why?" Videl asked.

"Because you have a guy like Gohan. Not only is he handsome, but he's strong, smart, very kind and truthful." Erasa said.

"I guess so." Videl said.

____________

"Dad wait let me come too. I'll be right back." Gohan said. He ran inside. "Videl Dad and I are going to get some senzu beans."

"I'm coming too! Erasa we'll be right back." Videl said and she went outside. "Bulma could you stay with Erasa please?"

"Sure." Bulma said heading inside.

Gohan and Videl put their hands on Goku's shoulder and they transported to Corrin's tower. "Corrin!" Goku yelled.

"You don't have to yell I'm right here." Corrin said.

"Sorry." Goku said with the goofy Son grin on his face and his hand behind his head.

"So you're here for some senzu beans?"

"Dad. Videl and I are going to go to see Dende." Gohan said.

"Okay I'll meet you up there. Uh well you see Corrin, Videl's friend got caught in a riptide and she is so exhausted she can barely move." Goku said as Videl and Gohan flew up to Dende's lookout.

____________
"Dende! It's nice to see you again," Videl said giving him a hug.

"It's nice to see you again too Videl." He laughed.

"Hello Piccolo." Gohan said.

"What brings you guys up here?" Piccolo asked.

"Well we needed some senzu beans from Corrin. That reminds me do you guys want to come back with us? We're having a party at the beach."

"I'd love to Gohan I need a little break." Dende said.

"Piccolo do you want to come too?" Gohan asked.

"Nah I'll keep Mr. Popo company plus I'll get sand in my shoes." He said.

_____________

"I've got some right here," Yajarobi said holding out a bag.

"Thanks Corrin thanks Yajarobi," Goku said then he teleported to lookout.

"Are you sure Piccolo?" Gohan said.

"Yeah," Piccolo replied.

"Dad, Dende said he'd come and join the party."

"Cool let's go," Goku said. Then they teleported back to the beach.  They went to where Erasa was and Goku held out his hand and told her to eat the senzu bean. 

"What is it?" she asked.

"It's a senzu bean." Gohan said.

"Remember during the tournament that guy nearly killed me?" Videl asked.

"Yeah," Erasa said slowly.

"Well do you remember seeing me a little while later all healed and everything?" Videl said.

"Yeah then you and Gohan flew away."

"Gohan gave me a senzu bean. It gave all my power back and it healed me."

"Okay." Erasa said eating it. She felt energy flow through her body and she sat up, "Wow! You were right! Thanks."

"No problem." Goku said.

"Gohan was flying wasn't he? I saw him."

"Aww darn I'm still wet," Chibi Trunks said.

"Hey! How 'bout we go super. We'll dry off real fast." Goten said.

"Yeah! Why didn't I think of that?" Chibi Trunks said. They both went Super Saiyan and Erasa was staring at two mini Gold Fighters.

"Gohan? Would you like to explain why there are mini Gold Fighters and how you can fly?" Erasa said.

"Uh. Well um," Gohan said putting his hand behind his head.

"The person who taught me how to fly was Gohan." Videl said. "So you were right about him being Saiyaman."

"Well how did you find out that he was him?" Erasa asked.

"Well, do you remember when the two dinosaurs came to the city?" Videl asked.

"Yeah."

"Well one of them scratched Saiyaman on the side of his face and I saw it happen. The next day when I saw Gohan at school he had a bandage on the very same spot where Saiyaman got cut." Videl said.

"Wow!" Erasa said.

"Erasa just please don't tell anyone." Gohan said.

"Why do you want to keep it as a secret?" Erasa said.

"Because I want to be a normal kid." Gohan sighed.

"A normal kid? I would do anything to be able to do what you can. But okay I won't tell anyone. Are you the Gold Fighter too?"

"Yep." Gohan said.

"Wow! Can I see?" Erasa asked.

"Sure." Gohan said. Then he powered up and went Super Saiyan.

"Cool! How do you do it?" Erasa asked.

"Well now it comes naturally, but when I first did it I had to get really angry," Gohan said. "The first time I saw someone transform was when I was on Namek and Dad was fighting Frieza. Back then I thought that it was the coolest thing." Gohan said.

"Gohan? Get angry?" Erasa asked.

"Yeah when I was about Goten's age I was very different."

"What made you that angry?" Erasa asked.

"I don't remember." Gohan said. Videl saw that he got a little nervous.

"Well why can only a few people do it?" Erasa asked.

"Because it's in only Vegeta and Dad's blood and since I have dad's blood in me I can do it.  Only Vegeta, Goten, Trunks, Dad and I can do it, well right now that is If Trunks Goten or I have a kid (Erasa glanced at Videl and Videl blushed) then that kid will be able to do it too. Anyways enough talk about that let's go outside and see what everybody is doing." Gohan said.

"Okay." Erasa said. They walked outside and Goku walked up to them.

"Well I guess that senzu bean did the trick." He said.

"Yes it did thanks." Erasa said.

"Hey guys! I think Vegeta's going to wake up soon." Bulma said excitedly.

"Vegeta slowly opened his eyes as he woke up.  He had some sand in his eyes and he was going to rub them, but he couldn't move his arms. He then realized that he was buried under a huge Eiffel Tower. "All right who did this?!" He yelled.  "KAKAROTT!! Did you do this!?"

"Of course I didn't do that Vegeta!" Goku said.

Vegeta powered up and the sand that was on him flew off Vegeta then stood up and his whole body was covered in sand. Bulma fell down laughing, 'Vegeta you look so funny!" she said rolling on the sand.

"Woman! Shut up!" Vegeta growled.

"Vegeta you don't talk to me that way, now go wash of. Dinner is almost ready." Bulma said.

"I'm not going to get wet," Vegeta said crossing his arms.

"Oh yes you are! You're not getting my car like that" Bulma said, "unless you want to fly home."

"I'm not wasting my energy on something like that!"

"Well then get in the water."

"Fine! He growled and walked down to the water.  He didn't want to walk in because it would take too much time.  He flew to where it was deep enough for him to get fully wet. Then he dived into the water.  He came up for air, flew back and landed in front of Bulma.

Bulma fell down laughing again when she saw a dripping wet Vegeta. His hair was soaked, yet it was still sticking up. "Vegeta! Ha ha ha I finally got you in the water! You're soaked!" She gasped in between breaths.

"You Saiyans have interesting hair! They're gravity defying." Videl said and Gohan grinned.

"I will not stay wet!" Vegeta said and went Super.

"Why can only you six do that thing?" Erasa asked.

"Well it's kinda hard to explain." Gohan said.

"No it's not Gohan! We're not human." Goten said.

"Goten!" Gohan said bopping him on his head.

"That hurt!" Goten said rubbing is head.

"How can you not be human? You look like one." Erasa said.

"Yeah well Trunks, Trunks, Goten and I aren't pure blood, we're half and half. My mom and Bulma are humans." Gohan said.

"So your dad and Vegeta are from another planet?" Erasa asked, "That can't be true."

"Of course it is Kakarott and I come from planet Vegeta." Vegeta growled. "And I'm the prince."

"You're a prince?" Erasa asked.

"Of course I am." Vegeta said smirking.

"Not to be rude and all, but why are you here and not on your planet?" Erasa asked.

"Frieza blew it up." Goku said.

"You don't know anything about that planet Kakarott! I was old enough to remember it."

"Ahhh. Wonderful childhood memories." Krillin said.

"If you call your father being killed by Frieza, your home planet being destroyed, and having to take orders by the person who's responsible for all of that wonderful, then you obviously must be mistaken." Vegeta yelled.

"You've must have had a hard life." Erasa said.

"Especially being beaten by a low class Saiyan," Vegeta mumbled and lucky for him Bulma hadn't heard him.

"Goku? Gohan said that you could go Super Saiyan three. Can you?" Mirai Trunks asked.

"Yep," Goku said grinning.

"If you're not doing anything, then can you show me how to do it?" he asked.

"Sure! That'll be fun." Goku said. He walked to the water and stood about ankle deep. "Oh well I can get a new pair of shoes. Ready?"

"Yep." Mirai Trunks replied.

"Okay, first you have to go Super Saiyan." Goku said going Super Saiyan.

"Okay." Mirai Trunks said.

"Then you go Super Saiyan 2." Goku said going Super Saiyan 2.

"Got that," Mirai Trunks said.

"Then finally you search deep inside you for energy then you push it all out and…" Goku said then screamed for a long time. The water around his feet flew out. "And when you do that you turn into a Super Saiyan 3," Goku said.

"Goku? Could you go to your house and get some trees from the forest for firewood please? We're running out for dinner." Bulma said.

"Sure thing Bulma! I'll be back in less than a minute Trunks bye!" Goku said flying off and heading for his house.

Hercule was lounging outside by the pool at his mansion when he saw a golden thing shoot past, "Heh heh heh that must be Goku," HE said.

"Goku stopped in front of his house and grabbed a couple trees and flew back to the beach.

"That was fast, ten seconds and you had to fly halfway across the world too." Mirai Trunks said.

"I told you I'd be back really soon." Goku said. Then he powered down and he started panting.

"Are you all right Goku?" Mirai Trunks said.

"Yeah I'm fine Trunks, Gohan can I have a senzu bean?" Goku asked.

"Sure thing Dad! Here catch!" Gohan said throwing a senzu bean to Goku and Goku caught it and ate it.

"If you're fine then why do you need a senzu bean?" Mirai Trunks asked.

"When you go Super Saiyan 3 it drains your energy very rapidly, but I've gotten used to it." Goku said.

Goten picked up a tree and tossed it in the air. He jumped up, and kicked and punched the tree.  He then landed and the cut up tree landed in a neat stack in front of him.  He picked some up and threw it in the fire. "There you go Bulma." He said.

"Thank you Goten," Bulma said. Ten minutes later Bulma called out. "Food's ready!"

"Yippie!" Goten said. Goku was the first one there. Everybody got some food except for Dende and 18. Dende just got some water.

Erasa just then noticed Dende, "Who's that?" she asked.

"That's Dende." Videl said, "He's the guardian of earth."

"There's a guardian of earth?" Erasa asked.

"Yeah of course. HE makes sure everything is fine and he also created the Dragonballs." Said Videl.

"Dragonballs?"

"Yep if you collect all seven and you say a certain thing then the eternal dragon comes out and he'll grant you two wishes." Gohan said.

"Two wishes?" Erasa asked.

"Yep." Gohan replied.

"Any two wishes?" Erasa asked.

"Yep." He replied.

"Wow! Cool! Is Dende from another planet too?"

"Yep I'm from the planet Namek." Dende said.

"Well we'd better take Erasa home." Bulma said when they were done eating.

"We'll take her home Bulma." Videl said. "Do you want to come too Dende?"

"Sure I'll go." Dende said.

Gohan pressed the red button on his watch and turned into Saiyaman.  He picked Erasa up and Goten ran up to him, "I wanna go! I wanna Go! I wanna go too! And so does Trunks." He yelled.

"Okay you can come too squirt!" Gohan laughed.

"Yay!" Goten and Chibi Trunks said. Then they all headed for Videl's house to see Hercule.  When they landed Gohan went back to normal and they went inside. Buu and Be were playing with each other and Hercule was sitting down watching.

"Hey Dad!" Videl said.

"Hey guys!" Hercule said, "Dende what are you doing here?"

"I decided to come visit." Dende said.

"Well it's nice to see you." Hercule said.

"We'd better get going, we have to go to lookout then drop off Erasa." Gohan said.

"Have Fun! Tell everyone I said hi!" Hercule said waving.

They fly over trees and then they see a huge pole shooting straight up in the air for hundreds of feet. "There's Corrin's tower!" Goten and Chibi Trunks yelled. They flew up the tower pole to lookout. Mr. Popo and Piccolo were standing next to each other looking down at the earth. "Anything happening down there Piccolo?" Dende asked.

"Nothing except for a tornado in the United States," Piccolo said.

"Erasa this is lookout where Dende lives." Videl said.

"Wow! You can see the whole world from here!" Erasa exclaimed.

"Yep." Dende said.

"Well we'd better be getting you home," Gohan said. He picked Erasa up again and Goten and Chibi Trunks dove off lookout.

Gohan and Videl followed slowly because of Erasa.  A few minutes later they all arrived at Erasa's house.  She waved to then as they flew off. They flew back to the beach. Mirai Trunks reached into his pocket and pulled out a capsule. He opened it and the familiar yellow time machine appeared.  "Trunks! You can't go." Gohan said.

"I have to, I don't want to leave Mom alone again for too long." Mirai Trunks said.

"When's the next time I'll see you?" Gohan asked.

"I don't know Gohan. And you know I don't want to leave either. You're my best friend." Mirai Trunks said sadly.

"You're mine too Trunks. Tell Bulma hi from all of us and also tell her that we send our love."

"I'll do that. Thank you Gohan and everybody else. Videl I hope you and Gohan will be happy together. Goodbye Mom, Dad, Goku, Goten and everybody else!" Mirai Trunks said hopping into his time machine and waving bye to everyone as he disappeared.

"Well I suggest that we all go home then," Goku said. He used instant transmission to take Videl home then Gohan, Goten and Goku went home. The others went their own separate ways too.

______________________

 I hope you liked this part to the story and again I am sorry it took so long. I got the idea of them going to the beach when I was in Hawaii ^_^

[1] When we were in Hawaii on Vacation my little brother who is five was really excited about going to the beach so he said that while we were in the car.

[2] I couldn't help myself. My friend's nickname is Gohan and she hates that Gohan marries Videl so I had to do that.  I'm so mean. All last year another friend and I bugged her about that, but I can't now because she goes to another school, which is my school's rival. Anyways I'll shut up now.

As to show how sorry I am I promise I will have a sequel to this sequel within a couple of days, but I dunno because of my computer problem. I can't get to one with Internet except for the school computers and they are Macs and they don't have a floppy drive.
