J-Rose: Yeah, yeah. Enough with the formalities! Let's get your sorry butt rollin' and get on with the story!
Storm: Sheesh! I don't exactly remember you helpin' me with this chapter.
J-Rose: Um…I had to wash my hair…

J-Rose: Um…yeah?
Storm: Ok then! Let's go!

Gohan awoke the next morning to the sound of Goten's laughing outside. He glanced at the clock to discover that his alarm had not rung.
"Damn it." He muttered under his breath. He stumbled out of bed, wearing boxers and an undershirt. He opened his closet door, groping groggily for a shirt. Pulling one over his head, the young Demi-Saiya-jin wandered downstairs.
A few minutes later, the bedroom door opened, revealing Gohan with a sheepish smile plastered his face. He opened the closet door again, searching through the articles of clothing that littered the ground.
"Can't get far without these." He said, picking up some pants. He reached into the pocket, pulling out his school badge and ID card. Grinning to himself, he walked back out of the room.
Meanwhile, miles away at Hercule Mansion, Videl Satan was getting ready for her day back to school. She, too, was running late, and was expecting Gohan's arrival at any moment. The doorbell rang downstairs, and she scuttled down to answer it. She opened the door, a comb in her mouth, and a shirt in each hand.
"Wish dof dese do yu dink I shoulf wear?" she said through the comb, not even looking at Gohan. She glanced up to see what he thought, only to discover that he had arrived devoid of trousers. She dropped everything as she fell back laughing. Gohan looked down at her, puzzled.
"What's so funny, Videl?" Gohan said, looking rather bewildered.
Videl recovered for a moment. "Gohan…did you know that you're not wearing any pants?" she asked, still stifling laughter.
"What are you talking about?" Gohan said, looking down. "By George, you're right!"
"C'mon, Gohan." Videl said, leading him upstairs, still shaking her head in disbelief. They walked into her father's room. Videl disappeared into the closet. She popped out a moment later, a rather large pair of baggy pants clutched in her hand.
"Put these on, big guy." She said, tossing the pants to Gohan. He frowned at them, but pulled them on anyway.
"Hey, Videl?" Gohan said uncertainly. "Is there any chance of my getting a belt to go with these?" Videl clicked her tongue in annoyance, but dived back into the closet, reappearing with a large, black belt dangling from her hand.
"Great." Gohan muttered as he slipped the belt on. They returned to Videl's room, and after a few more minutes of preparation, they were ready to go. Gohan opened the window, and gestured for Videl to go first.
"Ladies first." He said, grinning.
"My hero." Videl shot back, rather sarcastically. They hopped out the window and soared off towards Orange Star High School.
They landed in an alley about a block from the school. As they emerged onto the sidewalk, they spotted Erasa and Sharpener. Erasa waved enthusiastically, and Sharpener just nodded in acknowledgement of their presence.
"What were you guys doin' back there?" He asked curiously.
"Ooh!" Erasa squealed excitedly. "Are you two guys a couple now? 'Cause that would be so cool! I mean, you two guys are like perfect. I mean, you have so much in common. I mean, you guys both have black hair and…" She continued babbling for the remainder of the walk up to the school.
The rest of the first day back passed fairly uneventfully. The final bell found Videl and Gohan packing up to go home for the day. They exited into the hall, catching up with Erasa. Sharpener joined them shortly from his class. The four friends exited out the main doors, laughing and talking. As they walked, a big guy walking the other way ran into Gohan.
"Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't see you. Please forgive me." Gohan said, impeccably polite as always.
"Yo, foo, yous ran into me. Yous best be watchin' where yous is goin'." The large, and apparently rather stupid teen said, shoving Gohan.
"Yeah, thas' right dawg." Someone said from behind Gohan. Gohan turned to see a small, white guy with a beanie over his eyes. "You ran into my home boy Trikky G. That ain't smart of you, homes."
"Thas right!" Another inside out Oreo (A/N: An inside out Oreo is a white guy spouting Ebonics.) said, walking up behind Trikky. Trikky shoved Gohan again, challenge obvious in his eyes. Trikky took a swing at Gohan. Gohan sighed heavily and dodged.
"Better get back, guys." Gohan said to his friends behind them. Meanwhile, the action was drawing quite a crowd. Someone had even stopped in their car to watch, stereo still blasting DMX loudly. Gohan dodged another blow as the lyrics began to float across the field to where they were fighting.
…Y'all gonna make me lose my mind, up in here (up in here).
Gohan ducked under another blow, this time from the Oreo, not out of necessity, but simply because he could. Still low from his duck, he placed his hands on the ground, swinging his legs around to knock Oreo's out from under him. Oreo fell with a loud thump.
…Y'all gonna make go all out, up in here (up in here).
Gohan came out of his spin, and propelled himself upwards, feet first, towards Trikky, hitting him directly in the chest. Trikky stumbled and fell back, but quickly regained his composure. In the meantime, Gohan had regained his feet and was squaring off against the beanie guy, who had produced a knife from somewhere in his enormously baggy pants. He lunged at Gohan, who, in a flash, stepped aside.
…Y'all gonna make me lose my cool, up in here (up in here).
Gohan grabbed Beanie's wrist, flipping him easily. He landed face first on the cement behind Gohan with a sickening crunch. Trikky G had taken Gohan's distraction with Beanie guy as an invitation to charge. Gohan, facing the other ways, sensed him and back flipped through the air, landing behind a very confused Trikky. Gohan whistled. Trikky turned, surprise apparent on his face. Gohan snapped his leg up, catching Trikky full in the stomach. Trikky sailed into the air. Gohan turned to Videl and grinned, just as Trikky reached the peak of his ascent. He hit the ground just as the final lyrics of the song were reaching the battlefield.
…Ain't nothin' y'all can do now.
A/N: Hey, what up all. This was my first attempt at making a detailed fight scene, so I hope it came out all right. I thought the DMX lyrics might add a nice touch. Anyway, tell me what you guys think! Review! Tell your friends to review! C'mon! You can do it!
Peace
