A Sprite's Campfire

Ch.4

"Well...we got sprites." Gohan observed.

"Really? I would have never noticed! Oh, where would I be without you to read useless piece of paper?" Videl replied sarcastic, clearly not enjoying the project. "So, we'll start the project today! How 'bout I go to your house right after school, then maybe we can train a little too."

"Cool. Sounds like a plan to me! What do you think about Naru?" Gohan patted his furry friend.

Naru purred with his touch, but she was concern. 'Gohan, Videl, near the forest? Studying about sprites? Not good! I'll have to tell the rest!" Naru pondered.

Wait! Hold that thought! Let's rewind a little:

'Gohan, Videl, near the forest? Studying about sprites? Not good! I'll have to tell the rest!" Naru pondered?

Changing scenery

~~~*~~~

While the whole 'sprite' thing was happening, Chichi and Goten went to the city near their house to get the groceries needed for the month. Chichi decided to give Goten one last chance to prove that he is a good boy, so she left him to walk around the town and meet him at the store in two hours!

The city itself was small. The houses were simple and made out of wood, if not then of stone. There were a lot of benches by the sidewalk.

Goten was walking on the sidewalk, when he spotted a young girl, around his age, or younger. The girl was sitting on the benches, rocking her feet back and forth, watching the people go buy, with large green eyes (A/N: I hope you all assume that she has two eyes). She was dressed quite funny. She had on a dress that when down to mid thigh, her sleeves were long, probably toughing the ground, she had some kind os belt around her tiny waist. Her socks were long and came up a little past her knees, tied up with a green rope. Most clothing she was wearing was green, just different tones. Her hair was a beautiful green, and it was all curly, in it there was some red balls, small one, the size of a cherry.

She moved her feet back and forth, back and forth, and looked at all the busy people walking by. When she turned her head to the left, she saw a boy, looking at her walking over where she was.

"Hi! Can I sit by you?" He asked politely.

"Sure!" she smiled at him. He was the cutest thing that she ever saw. Mortal wise.

"My name is Goten. What's yours?"

"If you guess my name right I'll buy you an ice cream!" she offered.

"Really?"

"Yep!"

"Is your name Lucy?"

"No"

"Carla?"

"No"

"gimme a hint pleeeeeaaase?" Goten made puppy dog eyes.

"Well..." she thought, "It has a lot to do with how I look!"

"hmmm....tree?"

"Nope" she giggled.

"Bush?"

"Ooooo so close! But no"

Goten thought (A/N: that a first!).

"Is it..."

"SHIGEMI!!" a woman's voice yelled. The girl, as if on reflex, turned her head.

"Shigemi!" Goten shouted!

"Oh!!! Not fair! You heard her call me.

A woman with similar cloths as Shigemi, except the dress went to her feet, so did her hair, and her ears were pointyer. "Come on Shigemi we have to meet with someONE!"

(A/N: I would have stopped here but, I will continue!! For you!!! And because I'm bored!...but that's not the point)

"But...Kim! No...I wanna play with him!"

"Fine! But be home by sunset, or else."

"Yeah I know! Bye!" the woman went away disappearing in the crowd of people.

"Who's she?" Goten asked.

"She my big sister, she acts like my mom! I have to keep reminding her that she is not my mom! Unless there is something that she didn't tell me." They both laughed.

"I have a big brother!" he said climbing down the bench, soon, she followed him.

"Really? Any pets?"

"A cat. But she's always missing. She like my brother a lot!"

"What's its name?"

"Naru"

'He has to be kidding! Naru, a pet! Unbelievable!'

"Come one! I'll buy you that ice cream you wanted!" she ran into the crowed, Goten close by.

Back to school...or the end of it.

~~~*~~~

Math class, last period. Everyone was lacking off! And the teacher mumbling something about numbers or something. Videl was trying to stay up. Gohan was playing with his pen. Yep! He was an Einstein all right! No school for him and still be smart! (A/N: did you know that Einstein did really bad at school? Yes he did!). Iresa...I think that explains enough. Sharpener...he's also self-explanatory.

BRRRRRRRRRRRRRIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNGGGGG

The bell has finally rung! Without listening to their teachers the students rushed out the doors, as if being chased by dinosaurs, vampires, flesh eating worm, invisible flying monkeys, little blue man from inside refrigerator, and many other imaginary things that would have anyone ran, Chichi's frying-pan, or Bulma's cooking, or the worse: Vegeta singing! Yep! That is something to send people out the window...if you know what I mean.

Anyhow...they were running, fast, as fast as their own little hormones filled legs could carry them (A/N: where did that came from? A few years from now I'll read this and say to myself: "Man, I need tutor for writing..."). Gohan stayed behind and waited for Videl at her locker.

They had the entire day for themselves ::PARTY!!!!!:: and no one to get in between them, except the cat, but hey the cat wouldn't say anything. Besides they wanted to go after everyone had left. I think that kids would be suspicious if Videl and him FLY off the roof TOGETHER!

Heck! They could care less if both were hauled by Pink Flying Elephants!! As long as they were together it was a problem. First the rumors, then they would get distance, and then...then...something else would happen but we are getting off topic.

Gohan and Videl were walking and talking...bad combo. Unfortunately...

Or fortunately, again this is your point of view!

They didn't see a big yellow thing on the floor saying: "CAUTION, WET FLOOR". With a picture of a figure slipping on the floor (A/N: I don't know what's up with me, but, every time I see the picture of the stick figure nearly falling, I just laugh out loud *shrugs* poke me! It's a funny picture of a stick figure falling).

The things you will hear might be a little cliche, but it's just there to put the story together, again: poke me, but if you do I'll poke you harder.

Since neither saw the sign, they passed through the wet floor and slipped. Instead of falling on the ground like the fate of the stick figure (a/n: lol!!! Sorry...I couldn't help myself), they fell inside a classroom. The door closed. The lock locked. The school, compliments of Bulma, was anti-blast. Gohan would never be able to destroy that, he might destroy the entire world but that school, would stay intact.

A/N: I know way too many author's note, I'm tired of typing A/N all the time, so on the next thing that are in parenthesis will be my notes. Not to worry I'll remind you of that on the next chapie...chapei...chap....chapter...yeah

As for my others fanfic, I'll update all of them this week, or the ones that I haven't finished yet, which are few, but yet a lot...I'm not making sense am I? But then again do I ever?

Here is a little preview of the next chapter:

Great! Not only had she been stuck in a classroom, now she was stuck in HIS house with HIS mom for the NIGHT?! Not good. 'Rain, rain, go away, won't you come another day...no...Stay here forever...just don't flood." Videl thought...this experience was driving her out of the little sanity she had....

Wow...that came from the top of my head...I'm gonna have to work around that...*sigh* this is where my improve skills comes in handy! C ya!
