A Sprite's Campfire

Ch.6

That night, Gohan learned a lesson: no matter what the circumstances his bed was/is better then a wet couch. Every time he moved or turned there was an annoying sound. Turn. Turn. Squish. Squish. Move. Turn. Groan. Squish. Squish. Giggle?

Gohan looked up and saw Videl standing on the door of the living room (to where the rooms lead), dressed in his T-shirt and her bicycle shorts. Looking amusingly at him.

"Having a nice sleep Son Gohan?" she asked, already knowing what the answer would be.

"The best!" he replied sarcastic.

"Would you rather sleep on the floor?"

"Yes."

"Why don't you?"

"Because it's all wet!"

"There's always you room's floor."

"You're sleeping in my room, remember?"

"But not on the floor."

"Nah! I'm fine."

"Suit yourself."

Move. Turn. Squish. Squish. 'This is going to be a loooong night!' Gohan thought.

While he was having his fun, Naru was out having her type of fun.

As soon as she had the talk with the water nymph, Naru ran deep into the forest. Running like there was no tomorrow. As she was running a slow transformation was begging to happen.

After a mile or so of running, Naru looked almost human. Running with 2 feet, the only thing that gave away her inhuman background was her cat like ears.

Suddenly, the formal cat stopped. She panted happily. She was almost there. Now that she stopped her clothes can be closely examined.

Naru, human, was wearing black puffy-like pants that stopped about 4 fingers from her belly button, a black top that stopped just below her ribs. The top had one left long sleeve, it had no sleeve on the right side, but she had a glove that went up her shoulder. In the space between her pants and her top there was a see-through black material. Her hair was wavy, but curly, it covered ¾ of her back. Her hair is a shinny black color. And one thing that was her characteristic: her choker with the ball-bell was still there.

Naru made her way through the heavily dense forest. She stopped again, and took a deep breath before stepping into, what it seemed, another dimension.

It was a large place, with nothing! Only grass, no trees, no bushes, nothing. In the middle there was a giant fire. Not as big as the trees, although they want it to be, they decided against it.

There were few people playing some kind of instruments never seen before. They were all half goats, half men. Most of the others were women.

There were not many visible outcaste groups. Only a bunch of little kids, all were young girls giggling. They had beautiful dresses of all colors. (I don't know how to describe their dresses. I'll draw them and tell you the site to go on the next chapter)

On the big reunion, there were also the water nymphs. One of them was a guy. They were near a lake that Naru hadn't seen it.

Naru scrolled around trying to find people she new, and found a girl we saw earlier. A girl with beautiful green hair and long sleeves.

"Shigemi!" She shouted towards the girl.

The girl turned her head and headed towards the teenager. "Naru!"

"Hey kid! How's life going?"

She looked angrily at Naru. "What I'm living can hardly be called a life! But other than that I'm fine." She quickly lightened up. "I saw Goten today at the city. He's a cool kid. He's a mortal though."

"Really?"

"Yep! And guess what he said!"

"What?"

"He said he has a pet cat named Naru. Now I wonder how many cats do I know named Naru?"

"I'm not a cat kid."

"Only to our eyes, you are not." Shigemi said truthfully

"Whatever, kid." Naru stated simply.

"So...you gonna try to get Videl and Gohan together?"

"How do you know about them?"

"I am a bush, I can be anywhere..."

"Right... yes I'm going to try...key word, kid, try. But if I can't..."

"You only gonna realize that you failed when they die and they don't have the same weeding ring." Shigemi said before Naru could say anything.

Naru looked at Shigemi, and then looked down, "They gonna die old, and I'll still have the same face, even though my cursed body will be dead, my spirit will be living. And then I would fell guilty again."

Shigemi regretted saying that to Naru, she shouldn't have.

Another girl, from far, was watching the conversation. She had on light brown clothes. Long puffy pants that covered her shoes, a top that went down just below her breasts, but the back of the top covered all her back, she had long straight hair and one string of hair above each ear, that made a curl. She had an arm-warmer that went just a few inches bellow her shoulder. Her eyes were a red diamond color. She watched cautioned at their conversation.

"So..." Shigemi started, "what's you next step to getting them together?"

"There is going to be a club party at this night club. Their school sponsors it. Videl is going, that I'm sure of...Now Gohan...is the question. I have to make a way for him to go." Naru replied. They just stood there, thinking.

The mysterious girl continued to watch. "A night club, huh? Perfect! I'll have to plot a plan." The woman quietly said to no one really. So she continued to watch, she saw that Shigemi said something cheery and run off, Naru went after her. "You will be unmasked Amelia...a.k.a. Naru."

A/N: I know a bit short, but it'll do for now. I promise that next chapter will be longer and it will focus more on Gohan and Videl.

On the next chapter of A Sprite's Campfire

Naru quietly jumped inside the house through the open window that led to Gohan's room. She landed on a quite soft spot compared to what use to be floor. She ignored that simple fact and rubbed her self against the soft object and purred, while doing so she was also drying herself, also while she was purring, she felt the floor under her move slightly

"Videl..." said a dreaming Gohan... Naru wanted to laugh, but held herself it and smiled
