Satan City

by Aranoni

The Story is out again, Gohan and Videl pairing. A A/U taking place after the Cell saga you wont wanna miss it.

1. Chapter One: And His Name Is Gohan

A/N This is my first Gohan/Videl fiction I got the names off of "The official Dragon Ball Z website" so don't blame for the misspelling of names. The characters at times might seem OOC but that's to be expected also this is an A/U mainly for two reasons one no more saiyaman and two Gohan trained for those some odd years. Please forgive me if something happens that you don't like just e-mail me. I'm not sure of how many chapters I should do. The chapters will be long though so hopefully it will keep people satisfied. Also if you read it review it. It helps me write. Ok now that that's cleared up with only two things left.

Disclaimer: I do not own DBZ or any of its components however I do own this story.

            Gohan Sat in his bedroom reading a book that contained information of the nearby Schools. 'That Looks like an interesting school' Gohan sighed as he saw a picture of the lucky students who were able to go to school. Upon further research of the school Gohan became interested 'Wow…' he muttered to himself as he saw that the school was the best one he has seen in the whole area. 'I'm sure mom will let me join this one!' Gohan thought as he skimmed the achievements of the school. 'Has a weird name though… Orange Star High School.' Gohan closed the book remembering the page number so as to show his mother at a later time. Gohan tucked the book on the bookshelf collapsing on the bed in boredom. Gohan had practically memorized all the literature on the shelf except for the uncommon novel.

 He lay on the bed as the sun started to set. A smell started to drift to the bedroom as he jumped up off the bed mouth watering. "Dinners Do-" Chi-Chi began to yell but stopped in mid-sentence as Gohan had already made it to the table chopsticks in hand. Chi-Chi scowled and said "Gohan where are your manners!" Gohan flinched went to the sink washed his hands and sat down calmly waiting for dinner (On the outside that is). A figure crept by the stove as Gohan started to eat, a hand went up and tried to grab a bowl of rice. A wooden spoon was brought down on the mysterious hand as Goten leaped into the air grabbing his injured limb in pain. "That should teach you to try to get dinner without washing your hands first." Chi-Chi said with a hidden grin. Goten started to sniffle "You didn't have to hit me." Gohan Stopped in the middle of his second helping (They eat fast don't they?) "Hey Goten wash your hands and get up here or I might just eat all the food" Gohan said with a laugh. Goten forgetting his pain washed his hands quickly and sat down and started to eat. Chi Chi looked on seeing the sight she repressed a frown 'You never get used to Saiyans eating' she thought.

After dinner Gohan slightly remembered the book. He fetched it and brought it over to Chi-Chi "What's this?" Chi-Chi asked. Gohan opened the book "Mom, this is where I want to go to school." He said while flipping thought he pages showing her Orange Star High School. Chi-Chi grinned "Its Perfect Gohan! You can surely get a good job if you finish first in this school!" Gohan Smiled "Great its settled then ill attend Orange Star High School" Chi-Chi glanced at the book and cringed "Do you see where it is?" Gohan glanced down at the city where it was located and frowned "Satan City…"

Gohan Woke up to the sun shining in his eyes. Gohan sleepily walked to the bathhouse and yelped as he forgot that he had to warm up the water. Gohan used ki to warm up the area around him though the damage was done. Gohan put on a suit to meet with the principal.

Gohan Gazed over to the clock seeing the slight illuminations of 7:00 he carefully walked over Goten who still slumbered and went to the kitchen eating breakfast soundly.  Kissing his mother good-bye he nearly sprinted (100 kilometers per hour) to Satan City. When Gohan arrived at Orange Star High School he went directly to the main office.

 "Do you have an appointment?" the girl at the reception booth asked. "Yes, my name is Son Gohan." The receptionist looked at the computer typed a little "Ah yes here you are you may go see the principal."

 Gohan walked towards the door that said Principal. Gohan straightened his tie and walked inside. A woman greeted him "Hello you must be Gohan" she said as she offered a seat in which Gohan sat down in. "Pleased to meet you." Gohan said as he offered his hand the principal shaking it gingerly. Gohan dared not get a grip on her hand least he might hurt her.

 "Well Mr. Son you have been home schooled for how long?" Gohan thought back, 'lets see I was studying when Raditz came…' I was five then so that means… "Around twelve to thirteen years" The principal shook her head "People that are home schooled are usually not disciplined enough and don't learn as fast as I have seen." Gohan felt himself flush in a bit of anger but answered calmly "If you spent as much time with my mother as I have you would learn she gives plenty of discipline."

 The principal looked doubtful at this but dug in her filing cabinet pulling out a large packet. "You must get at least a C on this packet to be able to join this school. You can take it home but your grade is lowered by 20% by doing so." Gohan took a peek of the first question and asked, "What year does this test go to?"

 The principal sighed and pointed to the cover "Junior" Gohan had to contain his laughter as he flipped through the book, he had learned most of the questions four years ago.

The principal said in a bored voice "It usually takes people five hours to finish it. I suggest taking it home." Gohan looked up and said, "May I have a pencil?" The principal smiled as she handed him one. "Remember you can always take it home" Gohan walked out to the waiting room and started to bubble in the answers.

An Hour passes

Gohan walks in knocking slightly "Come on in Gohan." The principal smiled and said "Giving up?" Gohan shook his head "Nope I'm finished"

 Gohan handed her the packet. The teacher looked surprise but then thought 'He must have just bubbled them in randomly.' She took out a pen and got out an answer sheet. After half the test was graded (one-hundred questions) she called in her secretary.

 "Did this boy have anything with him while he was doing this?" the principal whispered. "No he just filled them in." Gohan had to contain his laughter for even when they did whisper Gohan was able to pick up on what they were saying due to his keen sense of hearing. The principal sent the young secretary away and continued grading the rest.

When she was finished Gohan thought that she was going to faint. The principle wrote on the test "two hundred A+." Gohan smiled and said, "When do I start school?" The Principal still gaping "Today's Friday so you start Monday." Gohan smiled and said "Thank you"

He started to walk out when the Principal called him back "There's a dress code you need to follow" the secretary came out handing him five buttons. The secretary said amazed at his score "You owe the school 2000 Yen to the cost of those buttons." Gohan gaped as the secretary giggled and said

 "Don't worry you return them at the end of the year and if you fail then you owe the school money." Gohan looked relieved "Thank you" Gohan said as he walked outside and headed back for home noticing no one he jumped to the top of a building and took off into the sky heading back home.

Gohan landed inside his room. Chi-Chi came in and said, "How many times do I have to tell you don't fly through the window?" Gohan stumbled a bit and said, "Sorry Mom but it was faster this way." Gohan put away the buttons in a drawer.

 As he walked into the kitchen Chi-Chi said "Gohan Dear can you go get some fish for dinner tonight, Oh and don't forget Goten he's been itching to go fishing." Gohan was about to call on Goten when he realized he was right in front of him "Come on squirt lets go fishing."

Goten and Gohan raced each other to the pond. Gohan was giving it half spirit when Goten started to pull ahead. Gohan smiled and let Goten beat him "Ha Ha Gohan I beat you" Goten said as he stuck out his tongue.

 Gohan smirked and said "Yea you must really be getting strong." 'Which reminds me I forgot to train with Vegeta today.' Goten smiled again and jumped into the lake they raced to. Gohan smiled and jumped in as well. Goten came out first with a large fish and started dancing at his new achievement.  "I caught a fish! I caught a fish!" Goten chanted as his brother stayed submerged.

 Finally Gohan came out showing Goten the fin. "Ha mines bigger," mocked Goten as he waved the fish that was two times his size in the air. Gohan smiled "Don't judge a fish by its fin" said Gohan as he took out a fish that was three times the size of Goten. Goten frowned and said, "Well I caught mine first anyways" sticking out his tongue again.

 Goten and Gohan were both soaked as Gohan powered up his ki and shot at Gohan a ball his size but nearly nil in power. Gohan tried to avoid it thinking it a punishment for sticking out his tongue when he was caught in the ball.

 Slowly the energy disappeared leaving Goten being dry but his hair… in an Afro. Gohan started to laugh as Goten tried to fix his hair. "Don't worry squirt wait till the ki leaves your hair then it should go back to normal." Gohan did a similar technique to himself however avoiding any of his hair.

 Goten's hair was still in an Afro as he dunked his head in water and shaking it like a dog. Gohan hair didn't meet the same fate as Goten's as he was completely dry. Goten hair went back to normal as he still shuck his hair madly. "Lets go get mom these fishes," said Gohan as his stomach rumbled. "Man I'm starving," he said as he started to jog after Goten."

 Chi-Chi smiled at Gohan through the window stepping outside she yelled, "GOHAN COOK THOSE FISHES WOULD YOU!" Goten threw the fish at Gohan while Gohan started getting a pile of tree logs ready **WHACK** Gohan nearly fell over when the fish made contact.

 Goten noticed what he had done and made good use of his feet as he ran inside. Goten didn't get far as Chi-Chi grabbed Goten saying "No dessert tonight young man." Goten put on his puppy dog look and started to sniffle.

 "Please Mommy I'm really hungry and it was just an accident" Chi-Chi was nearly fazed by Goten (A/N That is a big deal.) but still stood on her punishment saying, "Well you should of said sorry instead of trying to run off."Goten started for his room when Gohan called him "Hey squirt get over here to do me a favor." Goten still forlorn at the loss of his dessert lumbered for Gohan.

 "Can you light a fire for me" Gohan asked while skewering the fish. Goten sniffled again as he slowly held out his outstretched hand firing a blast that wiped out the wood. "I really need to teach you how to control your energy." Gohan said with a laugh as he fetched another pile.

 "Don't worry I wont tell mom that you blew up a pile." Goten smiled and was ready to fire another ki blast when Gohan warned him. "Careful now don't put a lot of energy in to it just enough to light a fire" Goten put on a look of concentration and released another ki blast this time it hit the wood but turned it black.

 Gohan was nearly cracking up as his brother struggled to get a small enough blast. Gohan gathered another pile this time saying, "Concentrate imagine a magnifying glass." Goten looked up at Gohan dubiously "Err its like glass except makes things look bigger… err just shoot a ki blast like you just wanted to light up a dark place." Goten said, "I wouldn't do that id just increase my ki." Gohan sighed and said, "Just do it"

Goten concentrated really hard as he fired a small beam at the wood causing a fire to start. "Good job Goten." Goten started to stalk off back to his room when Gohan nudged him saying in a whisper "Don't worry ill sneak you out some." Goten regained his happiness and put on the Son Grin that he learned through genes. "Thanks Gohan!"

Gohan sat in his bed dreaming lazily about the days to come.

 'I'm going to enjoy school I just know it. Finally a thought hit him they can't know how powerful I am… Look at Mr. Satan he barely has any strength whatsoever and he gets plagued by news reporters twenty four seven. Guess I'll just try not to do anything too athletic.'

 Gohan got up and stared out the window. 'Great its still high noon and I have nothing to do. Goten is too busy playing with trunks to train with me, Vegeta wont let anyone near the Gravity Chamber (A.N Gohan trained all those seven years one of the biggest reasons this story is a A/U) and mom doesn't need any help with food. I guess ill just look at my school.'

Gohan told his mother he was going to Satan City and walked out the front door taking off as soon as he was ten feet away from the door. As he came close to the city he landed and started to walk around.

 An explosion snapped him to attention as he saw robbers with Uzi's and pistols run out of a bank. Gohan was just about to clobber the men his hair turning into gold when his attention was caught to a helicopter hovering above the bandits. A girl jumped out of the helicopter her raven black hair shimmering as she cut through the group instantly knocking out two of the five men. Gohan looked on with a bit of contempt of joining in on the fray but knowingly if anyone noticed him when he started school he'd be in trouble.

 The girl knocked out the remaining three men as a police car arrived. A bazooka was fired aiming for the girl. Gohan frowned but without a second thought appeared in front of the girl taking the hit and firing a ki blast at the gun as he swiftly appeared behind the man knocking him out.

The girl looked on a little shocked as she saw a figure barely illuminated by a faint, yellow, light knock out the man and fly off … 'Fly off?' She asked herself as the policemen came over and said, "What are you looking at Videl?" "Nothing" she answered nonchalantly.

Gohan looked at the crime scene beating himself up. 'She is not a normal human I should have realized that by her ki. She could most likely see at least some of my movements and if she saw my face I am in a huge amount of trouble.' "Hey you!" Videl yelled at Gohan.

 Gohan had mixed feelings of fear and shock. "Um yes?" Gohan replied hoping she wouldn't notice him. "Did you see that guy with blonde hair?" "No uh I didn't see anything" he replied not giving it much thought. "Oh…" Videl said as she actually looked at Gohan.

'He looks like a nerd' she thought as she looked at Gohan who wore a long sleeved shirt and khakis. "Hey I haven't seen you around school" she said with a bored voice "That's because I'm starting tomorrow" Videl nodded as she extended her hand

"The names Satan Videl" Gohan froze a bit at the name but still shook her hand "Gohan Son Gohan". 'Wow has a strong grip for a nerd' Videl thought, as Gohan still looked on in disbelief "You wouldn't be related to Mr. Satan would you?" Videl smiled 'this should make him jump'

"Yea he's my dad." Videl looked a bit shocked as Gohan put an arm to his forehead shaking his head. 'Why me? Great I was hoping there was no relation between the city and "Champion" oh well you cant get everything I guess.'

 "Something wrong with my dad?" Videl asked slightly amused "Not a thing" Gohan said still rubbing his temples. 'He's just a fraud, self righteous, glory hogging, weak son of a…' "Well I guess ill see you at school tomorrow." Videl said breaking Gohan's thoughts. "See ya" Gohan said as he stumbled forgetting not to fly, and after a few embarrassing moments picked himself up and left.

                "Attention Class!" The teacher said catching everyone's attention. "We have a new student today his name is Son Gohan he had a perfect score on the entrance exam." Most boys in the class snickered wanting to see the new nerd. Videl raised an eyebrow. 'He is in the same class as me wont that be interesting? Wait a second Son, Satan hmmm he's sitting right next to me.'

                 Gohan stepped into the classroom "Hello" Gohan said a bit timidly "Well Gohan tell us a little about yourself. "Oh well… I like to read…" That earned Gohan a few laughs from the guys but only Awes from the girls. "And martial arts" Gohan continued as more guys laughed and the girls said Oooo.

                 "My Dad has won the tournament a dozen or so years ago before Mr. Satan competed." I bet my dad could beat Gohan's dad Videl thought. "Sadly though he died seven years ago." That had no one laughing only Videl blushing as she remembered what she was thinking.  "Well Gohan it is a pleasure meeting you please take a seat up their next to Videl." Gohan was stunned at seeing Videl but walked up the steps taking a seat next to Videl whispering cheerfully "Hello Again"

                A boy with blonde hair behind him scoffed at Gohan "Why did you even try to impress us saying you like martial arts everyone knows that you aren't athletic." Gohan fought down his Sayian pride as a girl next to him said, "Shut up Sharperner Videl doesn't look like she can fight either but she could kick your butt."

                 Gohan smiled a bit as Sharpner replied "Erasa if you were smart you'd stay quiet " Videl said calmly "why don't you both shut up" Gohan chuckled quietly as Erasa and Sharperner still glared at each other. Videl looked at Gohan and said, "What other classes do you have?"

                 "Here" said Gohan as he gave Videl his schedule. "Wow your in every one of my classes."

                 "Wow what a coincidence," said Gohan "Gohan be quiet!" the teacher yelled as she continued with the lesson. Videl wrote Gohan a brief note and passed it to him "At least you aren't in Mr. Nashi's class he'd give you two buckets filled with concrete and make you hold them in front of the whole class." Gohan smirked and wrote one back to Videl "Lucky me." Gohan of course was sarcastic but he knew Videl would take it seriously which she did.

                 The teacher soon dismissed the class to go to their next hour. 'Next is P.E. hmmm physical education sounds ok but I wonder why I have to change clothes.' Gohan stepped into the gym in his change out clothes, which were gray sweat pants and long sleeved gray sweatshirt.

                 "Hey Gohan ready to show off some skill or rather lack of it?" Sharperner said. "Why would I?" Gohan asked unknowingly and a bit furious at Sharperner's words "Don't tell me you don't know that you have to actually work in P.E.?" Gohan felt worried at this 'It's ok just don't show your true strength… Easy Right?'

                 Gohan stepped out into the gym looking to his right to see Videl in shorts that reached up to her mid thigh and a T-shirt. Gohan mentally kicked himself from his thoughts as the Coach came out. "Okay everyone five laps around the gym lets go."

                Gohan went at a human pace staying with the middle of the group. Eventually though the group started lagging behind not that Gohan would notice. Videl started to run up to him. "Hey Gohan what lap are you on?" "Oh me? I think I was on three." Videl was stunned only for a second "Wow maybe you are somewhat athletic."

                Videl started to breathe harder but Gohan showed no signs of fatigue. "Why would you say that?" Gohan said as he did his fourth lap. "Because everyone else practically died at the second." "They did? Gohan said as he looked back grunts of frustration on the guys faces and faces of adoration from the girls. "Guess I should slow down" Gohan mumbled but Videl picked up on it. "Hey Gohan want to race me?"  "Oh uh sure."

                 Videl sprinted as Gohan raised an eyebrow 'if I win then people will suspect something.' Gohan mumbled to himself "What's the matter Gohan am I too fast for ya?" Videl said over her shoulder. Gohan tried to fight his pride but failed.

                 Gohan did a brief burst of speed that matched him with Videl. Videl was starting to breath really hard as they finished the last lap. Gohan stood there waiting for the next activity as he saw other students' collapse and bend over breathing heavily not excluding Videl. The coach looked on waiting for at least a few people to recover.

                "Ok everyone do as many push ups as you can in one minute pick a partner to count for you." Videl rushed for Gohan as he looked over to her. "Gohan you may be good at running but I want to see how well you can do pushups." "Gohan looked over to the other students a look of dread on their faces. "What is the average amount of pushups people can do?"

                Videl raised an eyebrow and said sarcastically, "fifty" Gohan smiled a bit as the teacher blew the whistle starting the count. In fifty seconds Gohan had done forty and when he did the last ten he noticed some time left so he faked a cramp. Videl was shocked and very suspicious.

                "Wow your almost as good as me" Gohan put on a frown and said, "I thought you said the average was fifty and your obviously above average." Videl's jaw dropped "Are you telling me you did fifty just because it's the average?"

                Gohan froze a bit "Err uh no that was my best I promise!" Videl waved her hand "Whatever just start to count" The whistle blew and Videl did 61 pushups breathing heavily once again as she collapsed. Gohan then looked around to the other people boasting about doing thirty. 'Darn wish Videl wasn't being sarcastic or I would have done thirty like everyone else.' He thought worriedly  "Ok everyone today we are doing baseball so walk outside to the field. Gohan not too quickly walked to the field.

                As the first picks took place for teams Gohan blushed as no one picked him till he was the very last person and was "forced" to go to Videl's team. "Umm Videl how do you play baseball?" Videl sighed as she slowly counted to ten in her head.

                 "Okay here are the basics when you are in the field you try to catch it or throw it to the person there, there, there, there, or me." Videl indicated the spots to throw it to. "Since I'm making you center field what your mainly going to do is catching "Ok" said Gohan trying to remember this.

                 "When you are up to bat just try to hit the ball as hard as you can." "Ok got it but I wont hit it my hardest" The last part was mumbled and Videl couldn't pick it up. "Ok let's play then" Videl said as the class got into positions.

                 Videl struck two people out as Sharperner came up to bat. "This ball is going over the fence." Sharperner said coolly as Videl pitched it. With a loud crack the ball went flying into deep center field. Gohan saw it and leapt into the air catching it and throwing it as soft as he could to first base. Now the surprising part was not only the fact that he jumped almost twenty feet into the air to catch the ball but also the part when he threw the ball nearly catching fire as the man on first caught it hand nearly breaking. The class stood slack jawed as Gohan just jogged to where Videl was standing, hiding his face with his glove as he did so. "Umm I guess it was beginners luck that did that?"

                Gohan said to Videl who only looked even more suspiciously at Gohan. "Yea sure beginners luck" she agreed untruthfully.

 Someone was on first and second and it was the bottom of the ninth the score tied at zero as both pitchers had struck out all who have gone up at bat (Gohan didn't swing at all). Gohan watched as Videl took her turn being up to bat.

                 Sharperner looked on and decided to make the wrong move wanting to take his chances with Gohan and not Videl. Sharperner threw the ball hard at Videl who couldn't dodge it and was hit in the stomach.

                 Gohan who had seen the ball coming thought that Videl could have dodged it and was furious at Sharperner when she couldn't. Videl staggered to first base as Gohan with new fury stood up to bat. 'I can't show my strength. I can't show my strength. I can't show my strength.' Gohan repeated to himself the words making less sense every time he thought them.

                 The first pitch came Gohan saw it was on the outside so he didn't swing.  "Hey Gohan don't make the mean old ball scare you now!" Sharperner said as Gohan grasped the bat harder cracks starting to ruin the bat. (Never hit a Sayians pride) The next pitch was off a little but Gohan didn't care he swung nearly as hard as he could.

                 A loud crack broke the bat and sent the ball flying at stomach height to Sharper who could barely even see it let alone dodge it. When the ball hit Sharperner he went backwards catching the flow of the ball being thrown to the ground as it continued it's upwards movement to deep center field as it easily cleared the fence and went out of view of anyone.

                Gohan had walked the bases and immediately felt bad about what he did and remembered he had a few senzu beans in his bag. The whole field was gaping at not only the breaking of the bat but the ball or lack of one.

                At lunchtime Gohan snuck a senzu bean into both Videl and Sharperner's food as they both groaned. "Sharperner you moron if you pull a stunt like that again ill personally kick your ass." Videl said as Sharperner turned to Gohan new respect on his face. "You have a nice arm their Gohan this bruise is going to hurt for weeks I just know it." Gohan replied a bit worried "Oh it was just beginners luck and don't worry you will feel better after you eat."

                 Before Videl ate a call came in on her watch Gohan raised an eyebrow asking Erasa "What is she doing." "She's Hurcules daughter she fights the bad guys." "Gohan looked a bit worried "Don't worry she does it all the time."

                 'Yea well the only time I saw her fight she was nearly blown up by a bazooka.' Gohan thought fear gripping at him. Sharperner immediately felt better and turned to where Gohan sat noticing he wasn't there anymore. "Hey Erasa where did Gohan go?" Erasa looked at where Gohan sat seeing nothing but an empty chair.

                Gohan trekked behind Videl easily keeping pace with her helicopter. 'I still have time to eat lunch once this is over with.' His stomach growled again as he saw Videl go into a bank Gohan stood on the roof looking into it from up above. He saw something that made him freeze. 'Shoot Videl doesn't notice that big guy.'

                Videl jumped at the visible men with guns and easily cleaned the floor with them knocking them out before they knew what hit them. Then her eyes settled on a gigantic man too late to fight who had soon picked her up and threw her against the wall cracks being felt and heard in her arms and legs.

                 'Damn I have no choice' Gohan thought as he entered the bank avoiding Videl's sight as he turned Super Sayian. Gohan punched the man clear through the bank vault seeing Videl herself being out cold. Gohan searched his pockets and sure enough there was one bean left. Gohan put it in Videl's mouth and made her swallow it.

                Videl regained consciousness strength retuning to her as she found herself on a roof with a guy with blonde spiky hair and turquoise eyes (A/N debatable some people say green some say blue I think it looks like turquoise.)  Bending over her. "Good you woke up" Gohan said forgetting that he was still a Super Saiyan "What are you?" Videl said as she started to become afraid. Gohan looked dubious until he remembered what he was doing he turned around quickly and said, "Forget that you ever saw me." Gohan took off fear clenching at his heart. 'That guy looked really tough' Videl thought getting over her initial fear. Wait a second he could fly… Hmmm he was wearing the school button. I got to find out who that guy is.' Videl got up noticing no pain in her stomach or anywhere else over her body. Guess I have a high resilience. Videl took out her dino cap and threw it on the ground getting in her copter she took off for school.

                Videl circled the school landing on the roof not noticing that Gohan was up there. Gohan had found the only secretive place he could think of and was about to enjoy his meal in precious solitude. Gohan took out a dino cap, which held a grocery bag (The brown ones) taking out his food he started to eat very quickly. Videl stepped out of the helicopter to see Gohan eating what looked to be pounds of food.

                 A look of disgust overcame her face as she said "What or how much are you eating?" Gohan didn't really hear her dead set on finishing his small lunch. Videl walked over tapping on his shoulder.

                 Gohan almost choked on his food s he turned around to see Videl. "Ohf ey Widel" Gohan said Food accenting chipmunk like cheeks. Videl looked slightly disgusted as she said "Gohan swallow before you talk." Gohan swallowed and said "Sorry I thought I was the only one up here"

                Videl calmed her stomach as she waved understandingly "It's ok just try not to do that again." Gohan nodded as Videl turned around for the stairs. Gohan nearly swallowed the rest of his food, as he looked after Videl "Man she has a nice figure" he thought as his conscience kicked him 'What Am I thinking she's just a friend.' He started to relax as an inner voice nagged at him 'with a nice figure.'

                The math class was studying a subject that he had mastered three years ago so it was understandable that he started to drift off to sleep even with the nudging of Videl. "Mr. Son is this lesson boring to you?"

                Mr. Nashi asked anger building Gohan nearly asleep answered truthfully "Yea" he shot up as he heard himself say the word and everyone in the class gasped some even laughing. "Answer this problem on the board if you can then you only have to hold the buckets for ten minutes answer it incorrectly and you have to hold them for twenty."

                Gohan grunted as he went into detail what the problem was covering things that were supposed to be at the end of the year. The guys snickered as Gohan asked, "Do I still have to hold the buckets?" Mr. Nashi a bit dumbfounded nodded as Gohan sighed picking up the buckets. Every once in a while Gohan would stretch holding the buckets in the air surprising everybody (including Videl) that he was not tired in any way.

                 Gohan noticed this and started to look fatigued and at the end of ten minutes collapsed his arms and increased his ki to heat up his clothes so he would sweat. The students took it that he just had a way of suppressing the strain that was put on his arms. Gohan sat next to Videl who said "I warned you, don't feel bad I almost did as bad as you when I had to hold it for twenty minutes." Gohan snickered to himself as the lesson continued.

                Finally the bell rang as Gohan stood collected his bag and started to his house. "Hey Gohan need a lift?" Videl asked Gohan as Gohan shook his head. "At least tell me where you live." Videl said hoping she could postpone going home for another hour or so. "I live in the four three nine mountain area."

                Gohan said unbeknownst that that was a great distance. Videl shocked said, "How do you get to school so fast do you have a jet?" Gohan shook his head "No I just run." Videl still shocked said, "Come on ill give you a lift." Gohan almost shook his head again before he remembered where exactly he lived. "Oh I guess I could take a ride." Videl grinned "Cool hop in" Videl waved to the passenger side.

                 'This is going to take a while' Gohan thought as he stepped into the helicopter. They took off, Videl deciding to strike up a conversation "So do you know anyone in this area?" Gohan nodded "Yea Bulma's family is a good friend of my family." Videl raised an eyebrow "Bulma?" Gohan nodded again "yea you know Bulma Briefs."

                 The helicopter nearly took a nosedive as Videl tried to get over her shock.  "You know Bulma Briefs THE Bulma Briefs?" Gohan raised an eyebrow "Yea her and my dad were good friends till he died." Videl regained over her shock and said, "Wow who else do you know?"

                Gohan raised another eyebrow as he started to name off people "Well Yamcha, he's a good martial artist" another look of shock sent the helicopter almost in a nosedive. "You even know the best baseball player of all time?" Gohan raised an eyebrow "He plays baseball?"

                Videl nodded shocked still but somewhat laughing at the fact he didn't know Yamcha was a baseball player. "Yea and he's good at it just keep naming people you know." "Well Krilin, Oolong, Puar, Piccolo, Master Roschi, Dende, Tien Chouzou Vegeta and Trunks " Videl had not jumped at the mention of Oolong, Roschi, Puar, Dende, Vegeta, or Trunks. However had done so to the others knowing them as accomplished martial artists

                 "You got quite a lot of famous friends" Videl said, "You heard of them?" Gohan said with a smile "Yea my dad made me study the world martial arts tournament saying a lot of people cheated until he started to fight." Gohan fought down tremendous amounts of rage as he stated calmly, "Do you want to meet them some time? You can find out for yourself that they don't cheat." Videl blushed a little "How do you mean?" "Well they are all coming over for dinner in like a week or so and if you want you could spar with some of them." Videl raised another eyebrow "That's quite a ways to travel." Gohan shook his head

                "Nah they think nothing of it." Videl now very interested in Gohan asked, "So who lives with you?" Gohan answered slightly tired of the questions "My mom and my brother." Videl glared at Gohan as he sighed answering what she really wanted to know "My mom Chi-Chi and my brother Goten."

                Videl sighed "Wow you have two people who competed in the martial arts tournament as your parents, one who won. Speaking of which who was your father." Gohan felt his chest sink as he answered depressed "Goku" Videl looked still shocked at what Gohan had said; "You mean the one who came in second place when he was only thirteen or so?"

                Gohan nodded and said, "yea him and Krilin were best friends or did you forget that he came in third at that tournament." Videl dumbfounded shook her head. "You lead a interesting life Gohan." 'Not to mention terrifying heart wrenching and bloody life' Gohan thought "Well you have the man that fought against cell as your father." Gohan said wanting to change the subject. "Yea I'm reminded of that daily."

                 Videl didn't seem to pick up the fact that he said fought not defeat. Gohan wanted to get home thinking of ways to go faster as the sun started to set. An idea dawned on Gohan as he slowly put a small amount of ki behind the plane making it speed up.

                Videl hadn't noticed the change of going fifty miles per hour to one hundred miles per hour, which meant she was in deep thought. The sun set as the stars came out. Gohan felt for his brother's ki and took away the energy he had sent to the back of the helicopter.

                 "Thanks for the lift Videl said Gohan pointing to his house." "No problem." Said Videl "anything to stay away from my house." Videl whispered but Gohan picked up on it. "Why don't you want to go home?" Videl was shocked but then answered, "The "Champion" is a pain in the ass." Gohan laughed and fell out of the plane grabbing at his sides as he thought the same thing.

                 Videl lifted into the air 'Hmm he looks cute whenever he laughs' Videl thought then kicked herself 'Come on he's a nerd he'd have to beat Dad and that's not going to happen. Besides how do I know this is love?'  Her heart sank as she flew off to her home.   

                "Gohan welcome home" said Chi-Chi with a huge grin on her face "Thanks Mom" said Gohan with a smile. Gohan had no sooner taken three steps inside then he was knocked over by Goten "Hi Gohan!" said Goten "What kept you so long?" Gohan smiled replying innocently "Oh a girl named Videl though I would get home faster in her helicopter."

                When Gohan had said this Chi-Chi walked over with a sly grin on her face "So who's this Videl, Gohan?" said Chi-Chi not bothering to hold back on what she was suggesting. "She's just a friend mom it was only my first day." Chi-Chi looked insulted, "So? Me and your father fell in love the first instant we met."

                Gohan shrugged. "Speaking of Videl can she come over in a week to meet the rest of the Z gang?" Chi-Chi only smiled wider "Of course your little girl friend can come over" Gohan glared at his mother "She's not my girl friend mom we're just friends!" Chi-Chi only nodded "Ok Gohan if you insist. Tell your girlfriend she's welcome to come once we find out the date, and Gohan Since you were so late to getting to dinner Goten ate most of it but you can still have the left over."

                Gohan's stomach roared in protest to a small meal not even heading that his mother had named Videl his girlfriend again "But mom I had such a small lunch cant you make some more?" Chi-Chi glared but then thought for a moment "Sure if you promise to baby-sit Goten whenever I ask you." Gohan thought no longer than ten seconds before he nodded. Chi-Chi smiled again 'it is too easy to control a Sayian if you ask me' she thought as she prepared dinner for Gohan.

                'Home sweet home' Videl thought grudgingly as she walked inside the mansion ignoring most of the butlers and maids and walking straight to her room collapsing on the bed. 

                'How the heck can Gohan keep up the schedule of going to school like that? I can't believe its midnight… can't believe Gohan knows all those people who were contenders in the tournament... Of course my dad beat cell! … wait a second I cant believe I'm just realizing that Gohan named off all the people that came to watch the cell game. Oolong, Puar, Roschi, and Dende must be those gold hair fighters. But how could he have? He must have just studied it he is a nerd after all… A very dreamy one though.'

                Videl rolled over in her sleep trying to get the thoughts out of her mind 'God I only met him for one day and I'm already head over heels. It's probably just hormones.' Videl glimpsed out the window realizing she had her school clothes on and decided to just kick off her shoes as she rolled up underneath the covers and fell asleep absently thinking about Gohan.

                Gohan had woken up later then he would have liked and seeing the clock he knew that he would be late if he didn't kick it into gear. He had given his mother a kiss and waved to Goten as he blasted to the school. 'What to do! If I land near the school then I might be caught… I could do the roof but people would probably notice me, I will just have to land a mile away from school.'

                 Gohan put more energy into his flying as he finally reached the outside of town speeding to the school trying to work out where to land. He spotted an alley way and hastily landed running to the school as the first bell rang. Gohan sped up the stairs and to his class reforming himself as he stepped inside taking his seat as the late bell rang.

                 'That was closer then I would have liked' Gohan thought relieved. "Hey Gohan." Said Sharperner smoothly as Gohan took out the needed materials for the class. "Um Yes Sharperner?" Gohan asked concentrating on where he had put his pencil. "You haven't seen Videl have you?" Sharperner said as Gohan clutched his pencil breaking it to the mention of Videl's name

                'Damn it Gohan get a hold of yourself' Gohan mentally shook himself as he searched for another pencil. "No I haven't why?" Gohan said as he reclaimed a pencil in prime condition setting it down on the desk. "Oh never mind there she is." Sharperner said as Gohan still grumbled a bit to the loss of his pencil.

                 "Sorry for being late Sensei but some wackos thought they had seen a missile entering the town." Gohan's face became white 'I could have swore nobody saw me' Videl hopped in her seat giving Gohan a friendly greeting as the class started.

                The rest of the day went on mostly uneventfully except for P.E. Where Gohan had failed to restrain himself in baseball. Also Gohan had upgraded Videl's copter by stealing her dino cap and making the machine able to go at least two times its original speed.

                  Of course he had told Videl in which case she smacked him a few times for taking something of hers. Later that day Gohan had seen Videl looking for him wanting to give him another ride. So Gohan obliged by letting Videl see him. "You should get a apartment in the city,"

                Videl said as Gohan hopped into the helicopter making sure that his improvements would work. All Gohan had done really was give her engine a bit of a tune up and a tweak. What would have taken a man a day to do had only taken him a few minutes due to his incredible speed.

                 "But that would ruin the ride wouldn't it? Besides I don't think id be able to live for more then a day without someone cooking for me." Videl laughed at this thinking it was a joke however Gohan was very serious. "Besides my brother would miss me."

                Videl sighed, "I would do anything to have another sibling." Gohan looked at Videl and smiled "I can understand how it is to be alone for a long time I've experienced it more than once." Videl raised an eyebrow "What you mean summer camp?" Gohan looked confused again and had to smack himself mentally

                'She doesn't know anything about you Gohan you cant always expect the most from her' "Somewhat like summer camp except sometimes it could go on for a year. Once I was completely alone for about a year well actually only most of the year since some of it I spent with somebody else."

                 Videl head dropped a bit 'somebody else probably a girlfriend or something' "Who?" Videl asked a bit forlorn. "Oh Piccolo." That altered Videl's mood considerably and then became shocked "What did you do with Piccolo?" Gohan had to be careful here not to give away too much. "Oh we just spent time outdoors doing work." Videl being a very nosy person asked inquisitively "What kind of work?" Gohan had to choose his words carefully for if he said training she might think different of him but he didn't want to lie to her either.

                "Nothing too extreme just some martial arts now and then. Never a tougher teacher than Piccolo" Videl had hardly noticed the time fly by, 'that's been happening to me a lot when I'm with Gohan.' Gohan glanced out the window noticing the still sinking sun 'good I should be home a half-hour before dinner. That's in one hour.' "So Videl how did you become so strong?"

                 Videl looked shocked that Gohan didn't know the answer. "I inherited my strength from my dad." 'That's a lie' Gohan thought 'she is at least thrice the strength of her father.' Gohan put on a mask of shock "You mean you didn't do any training of any kind?"

                Videl only sighed and said "Well I had to do a lot of training to be able to become half as strong as my dad." 'That isn't a great feat' Gohan thought wryly  'She has a spark to become stronger and I bet if I trained her that spark could be a flame.' Gohan and Videl spent the rest of their time talking about schoolwork and the latest rumors unknowing to the rumor being cooked up about them.

                Gohan lay in his bed 'at the count of three ill get up and get ready for school' Gohan mentally recited the numbers in his head as he lifted out of bed and walked drowsily to the bath house.

                'I wish I hadn't talked my self into training last night even if I had skipped out on it for a few days. Lets see… how can I easily wake up without causing an earthquake… ill just fire a small kamehameha wave to get the adrenalin going.'

                 Gohan's plan however was foiled as he yelped 'I got to remember to heat up the forsaken water! Well at least it woke me up' Gohan's teeth chattered as he numbly stumbled out of the bath house hair on end (no pun intended about his spiky hair) As Gohan reached for his button he saw out of the corner of his eye a flash and then sensed who it was and smiled.

                "Hey big brother!" Goten said trying to catch Gohan off guard. "Oh hey Goten what are you doing up so early?" "Didn't I scare you a little?" Goten said kicking at Gohan's bed. "You almost had me but you shouldn't of made that little dash from one side of the room to the other."

                 Goten sighed and kicked the bed once more "I knew I shouldn't of done that." Gohan laughed a little and looked at the clock "Oh no I'm going to be late! And I haven't eaten breakfast!" Gohan sped out the door taking with him a small dumpling his mother had fixed kissing her promptly. 'I don't have time to land a mile away ill just have to take the risk of the roof… ill turn Super Sayian just in case though.'

                Gohan promptly went super and landed on the roof he searched the roof top for anybody and seeing no one he turned back to normal and rushed to his class making it there before the first bell and before most of the people. 'I must have really gone fast if I was able to get here so quickly.'  Gohan looked around absently as students started to file inside.

                 Gohan was daydreaming when a familiar voice shook him out of it "Do you think getting here early will make the teachers appear faster or something?" Sharperner… Gohan just took a look at Sharperner and considered what he wanted to do 'I could kill him, frighten him, shrug it off, or hurt him… choices…'

                 Gohan's debate was cut short as Videl promptly hit Sharperner in the back of the head with a book. "Hey what did you do that for Videl are you sticking up for the nerd?" Videl blushed but then said with rage in her voice "No I just owed you for pitching that fastball to my stomach"

                 Sharperner laughed and said uncaringly "I thought you could take the heat." Gohan by now was quite furious at what Sharperner was saying and had formed a ki ball in his hand and was taking all of his self control not to chuck it at his face.

                 Once again Videl beat him to the punch by punching Sharperner in the gut and after regaining his breath said with a bit less venom "Jeeze Videl I was just joking… I was trying to get a rise out of you." Erasa then took her seat next to Sharperner and said in a cheery manner "So you and Gohan are a couple now Videl?"

                 Videl blushed furiously and said with more rage then she meant, "What in the hell gave you that idea!" Erasa only looked shocked and said in disbelief "What you mean you aren't a couple? Cuz you always get Gohan to go home with you in your helicopter." Videl blushed even redder and said with a bit less fury "He lives in the four three nine mountain area I just give him a lift. We are just friends."

                 Erasa glanced over to Gohan who was even redder than Videl and smiled "You haven't said anything Gohan do you disagree with Videl." Videl gave Gohan a harsh glare and Gohan said immediately "No we are just friends like Videl says." Gohan scratched the back of his neck as his blush faded.

                "Ok class!" The teacher said abruptly as Gohan realized throughout their conversation they hadn't heard the first bell or the late bell. "Today instead of taking half the day for the interview we are taking the full day since it's based on an exceptionally famous person."

                First Gohan looked puzzled and asked Videl "What is this?" Videl sighed and answered, "They bring in famous people who have succeeded in life to talk of their accomplishments." Gohan froze 'please don't be Satan please don't be Satan.'  Gohan kept praying in his mind and thankfully his prayers were answered. "Today's guest is the announcer of the tournaments with the exception of the cell games."

                 Immediately the class looked to Gohan and Videl knowing that they both had fathers that had won in the tournament. "Please proceed to the auditorium in a organized manner." 'Calm down Gohan its just a person who knows how strong your father was… still he might think Mr. Satan beat cell though I doubt it.' Gohan thought miserably 'Calm down Videl your just going to hear what you've been hearing for the past seventeen years of your life' Videl calmed herself and walked to the auditorium.

                "Hello everybody if you don't know me then ill introduce myself. I am the announcer who hosted the world martial arts tournaments. I didn't host the Cell games for obvious reasons such as the fact that Cell was the host and though he was one of the fighters we very well couldn't argue.

                 However I did not come here to talk about the Cell games I came here to talk about the world martial arts tournament. Now ill go back to the twenty-first annual world martial arts tournament since the facts before then are not precise. Luckily though this tournament was an awesome one, which included three very memorable people Jackie Chun, Son Goku, and Son Krilin now I wont go into detail about this fight because it doesn't include a lot of me and maybe one day you might get one of these former fighters to speak at this school."

                 At this Gohan cringed 'sorry only two are left' he thought.  "And I wouldn't want to ruin their job however what I will say is that the winner of the tournament was Jackie Chun with Son Goku coming in second and Krilin in third it was a big deal because they were only just in their teens at the time however I'm getting off subject." The class gasped that Gohan's father had made it to second place when he was only a teen. However Gohan and Videl had just sat through most of it knowing it for common knowledge.

                 "Now in the twenty-second annual tournament the main competitors were that of a Tien, Chouzou, Krilin, and once again Goku. Jackie Chun wasn't a big competitor in these matches for he had given up to Tien even though they looked even in power. Now Krilin and Chouzou fought a hard battle with Krilin victorious and Krilin and Goku fought with Goku being victorious with him facing off against Tien. Now this was a very hard battle for both fighters however in the end Tien who had not flown into a car won the match.

                 Now at the twenty-third world martial arts tournament the main competitors were merely two people that were far superior to the rest Piccolo and Goku. Goku was seriously injured in the fight however he won the battle being claimed the champion however in the process the ring was blown up by piccolo…"

                The students scoffed and one student said boldly "What did he plant bombs in the arena?" The announcer looked a bit puzzled but then said, "Yes of course that's what happened…" The students stopped scoffing however Gohan had a grin on his face 'Well that proves it he knows Satan didn't beat Cell but he's smart enough not to release it'

                "Now up to the cell games the winner has been Satan the former competitors who were seen in the earlier tournaments had disappeared however there were some rumors that they appeared to watch the cell games." Again students scoffed at what the announcer was insinuating again the bold student stood up "They probably didn't compete in the competitions because they knew their tricks wouldn't work on Satan."

                 The rest of the students cheered their agreement except for two people Videl and Gohan. Videl sat looking very bored while Gohan sat with a mixture of anger that they didn't know the truth, pity for the announcer who had to take such scrutiny and humor because the people believed the truth was false and the false was the truth.

                 The announcer held up a hand and announced with a smile "Its break time. Everybody come back after lunch and I'll finish in detail about the matches between Mr. Satan and his competitors though not the cell games because I wasn't the announcer."

                 Gohan got up from his seat and promptly headed for the roof however he did not notice that Videl was following him until they got to the top. "You have some questions for me don't you Videl?" Gohan said with a crooked smile on his face. "Yes I do." Said Videl. Gohan smiled ear-to-ear and said "Ill answer you if you give me some food." Videl sighed, "How can you eat so much and not gain a pound?" Gohan looked at her turning his head to the side and said "I guess I just have a high metabolism."

                 Gohan had nearly finished all his food by the time Videl sat down saying with sarcasm "You must have gone without eating for a year." Gohan looked at her swallowed his food and said with a smile "Well I did miss out on a lot of breakfast. Videl gaped at first but then started her interrogations "Did your father cheat in the world martial arts tournament?"

                 Gohan smiled looking down at her box lunch, grabbing a rice cake, swallowing it promptly and said with a happy grin "no." Videl didn't feel like eating so she didn't mind and continued the questioning "How did you know the names to the Gold hair fighters?" Gohan chocked a bit and said with a gasp "What did I say their names were again?"

                 Videl was surprised by Gohan's recent outburst but decided to continue "Uh Dende Oolong Puar and Roschi." Gohan sighed with relief  "Oh I learned through Yamcha and them."

                 Videl nodded at probably the obvious "How did your dad meet Yamcha, Bulma and them?" Gohan thought for a bit 'cant very well say he met them while searching for dragon balls.' "Oh I think he met him when he was traveling the world for a family heirloom he lost."

                'Not really the truth but it answers her questions… kind of.' Gohan took the opportunity of Videl thinking to grab another rice cake swallow it and say with satisfaction "These are great." Videl found herself being a little hungry so she looked down to see with astonishment that Gohan had finished them all before she could even finish her questioning." Gohan was lying on the rooftop saying with contentment "You can ask me any question now it's a freebie"

                 Videl sighed in exasperation "No its ok I'm done for now." As she said this the bell rang signifying that lunch was over "Back to the auditorium" sighed Videl. "Oh joy" Gohan sarcastically remarked.

                The rest of the day was mostly explaining the exploits of the announcer and the details of the tournaments and so on. Nothing very interesting Gohan accepted Videl's invitation to ride home in her copter. Videl and Gohan mainly talked about the tournaments of the past… things the announcer had left out. Gohan talking in detail about the different forms each fighter held.

                 Gohan was at the four three nine mountain area before he knew it and bid Videl a farewell. Walking inside the house his usual routine of getting home took place, except for the small fact that he decided to train after dinner instead of training till two o'clock.

                'It's ten o'clock now so if I stop ill get a decent amount of rest… but I might miss out on some good training time' Gohan convinced himself that bed was far more important. 'That announcer didn't know a lot about Hercule. He knew a lot about my dad though. He must not believe Hercule beat Cell… not that I'm complaining. I wonder what would happen if I told Videl that her father is actually very weak…'

                Gohan's mind drifted to more pleasant things 'I wonder if that rumor of me and Videl could become truth?' Gohan turned over in his bed shaking his head. 'She thinks I'm a nerd, but you could show her your strength, then she will think I'm a freak, she is not exactly a weak person herself. True but I'm not weak either as a matter of fact I'm just the opposite I'm the most powerful man in the universe, Videl is a tomboy though… I'm sure if she put on something less baggy like Erasa boys will be flocking her, I wonder why they aren't already. I could ask Videl but how could I ask her "Hey Videl why aren't you dating?" that would never work' Gohan rested his head on his arm and fell asleep thinking absently about Videl.

                "Finally I got to school without a fuss." Gohan stated absently sitting in his chair as the teacher explained grammar. Gohan's attention along with the rest of the class was drawn to Videl's watch beeping "Sorry" said Videl as she hit the button on the watch

                "Videl we are having trouble with a gang of two can you help us out?" Videl sighed 'Cant they take care of this themselves' "On My way chief." Videl said as she rushed out of the classroom.

                 Gohan followed her with his eyes 'Calm down Gohan she can take care of herself. The last two times she had to take care of something she was nearly blown up and crushed. Yea but that was with five people and six people just sense out the area to see if anyone has a higher ki then her' Gohan lowered his head in meditation like state. 'You see nobody there is even half the strength of Videl she will be ok.' Gohan grumbled to himself.

                "Damn criminals ill just have to take my frustration out on them." Videl said with fury. "How dare they pull me out of class for only two guys." Videl looked on the Grocery store, which was being robbed. Videl took one last look around and rushed inside the store dodging Uzi bullets that came streaming out at her.

                 She caught one of the men in the back of the head with her elbow as she slapped the other robber's gun out of his hand. However he had a concealed knife in his pocket, which cut Videl across her arm. Videls eyes burned with fury as she knocked him to the ground kicking him in the gut a few times for cutting her.

                 She looked down at the slash in her arm seeing blood streak from it and to her palm. "Lucky me" she said sarcastically as she walked outside going to the paramedics truck to grab a roll of bandage and cover up her slash. She obtained her helicopter and took off to the school 'I'm starting to get dizzy' she absently thought as she went to the school her vision starting to blur. She got near the roof of the school but then fainted into unconsciousness.

                Gohan was slightly alarmed when Videl's ki dropped to nearly half its strength rising quickly to its peak and his fear slowly dripped away as he felt her ki getting nearer the school. The bell rang and Gohan rushed up to the roof to eat lunch. He was happy for the first time about his lunch because it was nearly twice the size of his old lunches.

                 He greedily opened his dino cap sat down and started to munch on his food. Suddenly something hard hit his head with a lot of force sending him sprawling into his food as he slowly looked up 'Oh Shit' Gohan thought as he saw Videl's copter start to tip over the edge feeling only a small amount of ki inside the plane.

                 Gohan tried to reach the plane but it fell 'Holly Shit!' Gohan panicked, as the helicopter got closer to the ground making sparks fly off the side of the building as it scraped at the bricks at high speed

                'What are you doing Gohan? You can't be seen!' Gohan went Super Sayian and flew to the helicopter heedlessly past the blades one of them hitting his shoulder making the clothing rip but the steel bent to the hard flesh. The helicopters motor being stopped so suddenly exploded. Gohan reached into the helicopter pulling Videl out by her shirt pulling her over his shoulder as a great amount of smoke exited the cockpit.

                  Gohan took the helicopter and flew to the top of the building trying to avoid any suspicion. Once at the top Gohan turned the helicopter back into its dinocap state as he put Videl on the roof slowly. 'Shit she's not breathing…' Gohan's heart skipped a few beats as he still felt a pulse

                 'What the hell are you waiting for Gohan!' Gohan gulped as he pushed below Videl's rib cage softly (for a Super Sayian) five times lowering his mouth to hers getting her tongue out of the way as he slowly put three breaths into her lungs. Gohan repeated this process for what seemed like hours no longer Super Sayian

                 "Please Videl open your eyes!" he said a single tear running down his face. Suddenly he saw movement. 'Did she just squint?' Gohan thought as he did the process faster. Suddenly Videl coughed taking in breaths of air. Gohan smiled as he looked down at Videl breathing. His face turned serious as he saw her in a lot of pain noticing the bandage on her lower arm soaked with blood. Gohan didn't want to leave Videl alone but he knew he had no choice.

                 He blasted to Korrin's place turning Super Sayian as he made it to the look out tower shorter than expected. "Korrin I need a bag of senzu beans quick!" Korrin came out faster than expected throwing him a bag "I wont ask" said Korrin as he walked downstairs again.

                 Gohan made double time as he came to the roof again not finding Videl there. 'Where the hell could she have gone!' thought Gohan mentally as he heard a siren down below. He saw Videl being loaded into an ambulance 'They cant save her!' Gohan turned Super Sayian level two as he took off the school button they made him wear as a dress code, wanting to scare the paramedics more than anything.

                The crowd that had gathered looked in awe as a man jumped near Videl his muscles starting to rip his shirt as he placed a bean in Videls mouth. One brave medic spoke up "I don't know who the hell you think you are but you cannot give Videl anything you bastard."

                 Gohan barely heeded him he only raised his head as the man slowly lifted off the ground and being sat gently inside the paramedic's car as Videl started to come to. "Who are you?" said Videl a little frightened.

                 Gohan looked a little frightened thinking she had amnesia as he started to say  "Videl it's me G…" Gohan immediately clasped a hand to his mouth as he said "None of you saw me" he jumped to a building a hundred yards away running to an alleyway turning back to normal and running to the back of the school.

                 He looked up at the roof and jumped to its height turning to his food he nearly cried as he saw it was ruined when he smashed it with the helicopter along with his face.  Gohan got near the edge and looked down seeing Videl was fine as she slowly got from the ground and walked slowly to the school the crowd parting as she did so.

                'One minute I'm in my helicopter the next thing I know someone's doing C.P.R. on me the next I'm being dragged to a ambulance and then a guy with blonde spiky hair tells me I didn't see him and then he jumps to who knows where.' Videl thinks as she sat outside on the ground 'God my arm is itchy'

                 She unrolled the bandage expecting to see an infection what met her eyes must be a miracle. "My cut… Its gone" Videl said as she started to walk to the school fatigue gone. The students parted as she studied the group "Has anyone seen Gohan" Some girls in the group giggled as she walked inside 'He was probably on the roof when I crashed that must mean… Oh no Gohan!' she started to run upstairs knocking over teachers and students alike as she finally gained access to the roof.

                 She was in horror as Gohan was on the ground face down she saw what looked to be smashed food and she stumbled to the body starting to shake, the beginning of a tear welding up in her eyes. What came next however surprised her. Gohan turned over and sat up straight "Oh Hey what's up Videl?"

                 Videl didn't know what to do. So many built up emotions, the thought of him dying tore her up, the only way she could express them were to dive to his chest hugging him as she shook with happiness. "Anything wrong Videl?" Gohan said oblivious to what she thought had happened.

                 Videl looked up at him still hugging him and said, "I thought I had killed you" Gohan looked dumbfounded and thought 'She must think you were killed when her helicopter crashed. I would have… if I were just a normal student." Gohan smiled putting his arms around her for a few seconds.

                 Videl broke off the hug Gohan looked bashful and said trying to clear some of his case "What happened to my food!" Gohan put on a face of shocked horror as he started to sort through the ruined food.

                 Videl started to laugh and nodded apologetically "Sorry Gohan I guess I ruined it." Gohan glanced at her "Can you make it up to me?" Gohan said seductively as Videl put on a puzzled face "How can I?" Videl asked "Can you cook me food tomorrow please?"

                 Videl fell over as she slapped Gohan "Ouch… Videl come on you owe it to me." Videl blushed a fine tint of pink "But I don't know how to cook real well." Gohan only smiled "I didn't ask for a gourmet meal I just want a lunch to make up for this one." He said as he pointed to the remnants of his cherished food. "Oh this may be hard because you have to keep in mind how much I eat.

                Don't try and fool me with store bought food or have somebody else make it because believe me I can tell." Videl's blush faded as she believed him 'with the amount of food he eats I wouldn't be surprised.' "Ok Gohan is there anything you like in particular?" Gohan smiled as he said with a laugh "Anything you cook would be fine with me." Videl blushed again this time with more red on her face as Gohan gave her the son grin as he walked downstairs.

                Gohan arrived as usual at home except this time meeting Chi-Chi at the door Gohan waved Videl good bye as Chi-Chi smiled "Gohan the dinner party is set for Saturday be sure to tell your girlfriend that. Gohan nodded and then "She's not my girlfriend Ma we're just friends!"

                 The rest of the evening was contained mostly of the plans for the dinner party and Gohan was shocked when Chi-Chi wanted Videls help with cooking "Uh Mom she might not be good at cooking." Chi-Chi only smiled "Nonsense any girl can learn how to cook just like any man can learn how to fight" Gohan raised an eyebrow "yea but she knows how to fight." Chi-Chi glared at him "So do I." Gohan shrank into his chair.

                 When he arrived at school the next day the teacher was holding the classes in the library because the school was being repainted "Why do they have to pick during teaching hours and in the middle of the school year!" The teachers fumed as Gohan struggled to get in front noticing Videl as he sat next to her as she squirmed in her seat as she fussed at a problem.

                 Gohan said with a cheery tone "need help Videl?" Videl looked at him and said a false question "If a man weighing two hundred pounds going fifty miles per hour in a vehicle weighing two point five tons crashed head on into another vehicle traveling twenty miles per hour with the man weighing two hundred pounds and the vehicle weighing two tons what would be the average pound per square inch put on the first mans seat belt assuming it was three feet in length."

                 Videl smiled as Gohan took on a face of concentration. Videl started to open her mouth when Gohan answered, "For one that's advanced calculus and I know you aren't studying that for two its 1000 pounds for the first second then its 150 pounds then its only 80 pounds." Videl was shocked she decided to give him the real problem instead of trying to figure out if he was right.

                 Gohan smiled and slowly guided her through the steps "You should be a tutor Gohan" Gohan smiled "I would but I don't have the patience." Videl nodded as the teacher announced "Since the principal is being so kind to us teachers we decided to make it kind for you students. Lunch will take over for the rest of the day" the students cheered as Videl flushed a deep crimson as she reached into her pocket and fetched a dinocap "Here" said Videl as she blushed even more as Gohan smiled at her

                 "Come with me Videl." Said Gohan as he grabbed her hand and led her to the roof. Videl kept blushing as Gohan opened the dino cap and was surprised at what he saw. "That's enough to make a grown man cry." Said Gohan as his mouth started to drool a huge bowl of rice that could easily feed five people almost a full chicken a salad and a chocolate cake to boot.

                Gohan sniffed the air Videl glanced at him sideways "what are you doing?" Gohan smiled as he said with satisfaction "You made it all yourself except for the icing on the cake that's store bought. Videl was shocked 'Gohan had actually picked up on that?' Videl was about to turn away aware of Gohan's eating habits and was surprised when he said with a grin "Eat with me Videl" "Videl sat down hesitantly as Gohan took out a dino cap "Brought more food huh?"

                Videl said deeply saddened that Gohan hadn't relied on her cooking "I wouldn't do that." Gohan said as the dino cap held separate bowls and plates and chopsticks. Gohan gave Videl a plate and a bowl giving her about one fourth of the meal as he scooped out the rest for him.

                "Thank you Videl this food tastes excellent" Videl blushed a bright crimson as they finished around the same time. Gohan eyed the cake and cut a slice for Videl taking the rest with him Videl watched as Gohan sliced smaller pieces of it eating it one at a time. Videl ate her own piece as Gohan laid down on the roof fulfillment written all over his face.

                Videl sat cross-legged on the roof "I like being up here Gohan I don't think anyone has ever thought up here was a good place to spend lunch." Gohan smiled as he rubbed his stomach 'Its nice when I spend it up here with you' Gohan thought eyeing her out of the corner of his eye, a light blush enveloped his face when he saw her face and he turned to look at the sky.

                 "How can you be doubtful of your cooking ability Videl?" Videl was startled at Gohan's comment "Well the only other person I cook for is my dad and he doesn't give me compliments."

                 Gohan's eyes flared a bit "Videl your cooking is one of the best I have ever tasted and believe me I've tasted plenty." Videl blushed but then asked, "Who else is one of your favorite cooks?" Gohan smiled "My mom, you could mistaken her for a professional just like you. That's where it stops… Bulma is ok at cooking but not nearly as good as Mom or you"

                 Videl blushed she hadn't ever received compliments on cooking, and sitting before someone who's most likely an expert of food and telling her it was one of the best he's ever had… sadly it was one of the biggest compliments she had ever received in her life."

                Videl was then startled "Bulma cooked for you?" Gohan laughed "Yea her husband doesn't like anybody else cooking for him other than her." Gohan smiled again and said "Speaking of cooking we set the date for the dinner to be on Saturday my mom wants you to spend the night since the party doesn't end till ten and everybody doesn't show up till seven."

                Videl thought for a moment "Sure ill tell my dad I'm going to a sleep over with Erasa." Gohan smiled as the bell rang "Good then ill see you Saturday at three Videl caught up with Gohan "But you said the party doesn't start till seven" Gohan smiled "My mom needs help cooking because there are going to be four people just like me eating at the dinner and other people who eat like normal people." Videl was horrified at the thought of four Gohan's eating but shrugged it off 'A sleep over with Gohan I can't wait'

                Gohan woke up at one o'clock in the morning because he set the alarm to do so. Gohan stepped into the bathhouse remembering with a slight cringe 'Gohan warm up the water before you wake the whole house with your yelp.'

                 Gohan was in bliss as he sat in the bath almost falling asleep, however he had to train in the morning before Videl came out or she would suspect something… 'Oh Kame I just realized what a big risk I'm taking by inviting Videl over. I know I can restrain myself but I'm going to have to have a talk with everyone else. Especially Goten.'

                 Gohan stepped lightly out of the tub as he flew off wearily to his training grounds he had set up five miles from the house Gohan dazedly got in his ready position as the earth started to quake.

                Gohan powered up to Super Sayian as he started punching the trees tumbling them down tossing them in the air chopping them to smaller stacks of wood and tying them so he will be ready to take them home when training was over.

                 Gohan started to punch the air rapidly avoiding nothing as he was alerted by a presence "Hey big brother!" Goten shouted Gohan smiled "Hey Goten you were that close to catching me off guard." Goten sighed "What did I do wrong this time?" Gohan smiled "nothing except for not lowering your ki enough."

                Goten shrugged "can I train with you big brother?" Gohan smiled "sure Goten go ahead take a swing at me." Goten charged at Gohan making a direct impact with his stomach however doing nothing. Gohan shook his head "I know mom is against it but you can turn Super" Goten was wide eyed

                 "How did you know about me going super?" Gohan laughed, "You think I wouldn't be able to sense my own brother reaching Super Sayian?" Goten only laughed as he powered to Super Sayian charging Gohan for real.

                 Gohan laughed, "Still a bit slow Goten but we will work on it." Goten encouraged by Gohan's words got in a ready position as he started chanting "KaMeHa" Gohan stood still and said to Goten helpfully "remember Goten you make the energy which you are releasing, control it."

                Goten started to concentrate more "MeHaMeHa!" a wave was released as Gohan caught it being thrown backward at the force of the energy wave. "Nice Goten now keep pouring your energy into it" Goten struggled with the beam as it started to become unbalanced. Goten couldn't hold on to the beam anymore as he shouted "Gohan I cant hold on anymore catch it!" Goten released the beam in all different directions "easier said then done Goten" said Gohan as he caught each one burning it with his own power.

                 "Very well done Goten though I wish you had learned how to control ki blasts before you got that much power." Goten smiled "Yea I wish that I was able to control ki then id be able to fly." Gohan's eyes went wide as he nearly fell to the ground. "You don't know how to fly?" Goten shook his head as Gohan held his head "Being able to turn Super Sayian before being able to fly never thought it could happen." Goten looked crookedly at Gohan "You'll teach me right? I don't like how Trunks can do both" Gohan smiled "Ah yes does Vegeta know that his son is a Super Sayian?"

                 Goten shook his head "He was too busy training at the time to realize his son had gone Super Sayian." Gohan laughed "That's Vegeta for you." Gohan motioned to a tree "Goten you know how you make a ki blast by forcing energy to your hands right?" Goten nodded

                "Try to put your energy under the tree and lift it out of the ground." Goten looked dreadful "But cant I just learn how to fly first?" Gohan shook his head "Do this first its easier that way." Goten sighed as he did as Gohan told slowly forcing his energy below the tree trying to lift it. 'He's starting to lift it but he's going to run out of energy before he's able to lift it out of the ground.'

                 Gohan helped Goten pull the tree out of the ground and when it was two feet into the air he let go. The tree faltered at first but then staying levitated. "Good job Goten now hold it steady and blast it." Sweat started to drip from Goten's face as he slowly held up a hand the tree starting to fall only to be boosted up again as Goten fired a small ki blast to the tree.

                 Instantaneously splintering it as Goten started to let the pieces of the tree drop. "Don't let the pieces fall Goten hold each and everyone into the air." Goten started to collapse from the stress but still held firm. After a minute or two Gohan smiled "Ok Goten you can let them drop now." Goten with a sigh of relief let the pieces of the tree drop as he stumbled wearily to the ground.

                 Gohan laughed as he said "Wow you can master flying right now if you wanted to I never thought you could learn so quickly." Goten blushed as Gohan laid a hand on Goten's shoulder. Gohan grinned evilly and said, "all you have to do is put energy under you and drive yourself and since you don't weigh nearly as much as a tree you should be able to do fine."

                 Goten started to look frightened as Gohan said, "lets see how you do under pressure." Goten was flung at least 300 feet into the air yelling all the way "Gohan When I get back down I'm going to kill you!" Gohan only laughed and said, "Just fly you'll get here faster." Goten fell cross-legged leaning his head on his hand, as he looked stubborn. Gohan said with another laugh

                "If you want to fall fine with me but your heading for a lake!" Goten no longer stubborn looked down and saw with fright the lake as he concentrated his energy under him." Goten stopped his descent breathing a sigh of relief as he looked down seeing the lake only inches away. Gohan laughed "I forgot to tell you something Goten look up"

                 Goten looked up seeing nothing however he lost his concentration as he fell into the lake Gohan laughing beside it. Gohan was still laughing hysterically as his brother trudged out of the lake. Goten for once surprised his brother by kicking him into the lake Gohan acted as a skipping stone for a few yards until he finally sank into the lake.

                 Goten saw with exasperation bubbles rising to the top of the lake in abundance. The bubbles stopped as Gohan rose to the top of the lake. Gohan landed near Goten giving him a pat on the back with a large grin on his face "Your getting stronger every hour you could easily become as strong as Trunks."

                 Goten eyes sparkled as he said with the Son grin "You think so?" Gohan nodded "Sure if he doesn't train with Vegeta that is. Goten shook his head "Vegeta trains at too high of a gravity level for trunks the only way he could was if he turned Super and I don't think he wants his dad to know."

                Gohan nodded "He would probably train him as long as he trained himself poor kid." Gohan looked to the rising sun "Come on we better get back before mom wakes up she would probably ground us both." Goten looked shocked as he lifted off the ground and flew with Gohan, his hands extended to his sides chanting as he did so "Look at me Gohan! Goten is a birdie! Goten is a birdie! Goten is a birdie!"

                Gohan and Goten had not gone to sleep when they went home instead Gohan taught Goten how to levitate things in his room (including Gohan) Goten was getting fatigued when Gohan said they should go to sleep when he heard one of his three favorite statements "Breakfast is ready!" Chi-Chi called.

                Goten and Gohan appeared at the table as Chi-Chi looked at them suspiciously and said with a sigh "If your going to train you might as well be more secretive about it" Gohan and Goten were in utter shock. Chi-Chi said with a grin "both of you take a bath and quickly before breakfast gets cold Goten and Gohan did as they were told coming back "What gave it away Ma?" said Goten as he started to munch on his food

                "Five things" said Chi-Chi with a smile "One you both stink Two I woke up to earth quakes Three you both have your training Gi on Four you both appeared at the table in record breaking time and Five you were both wet and bruised."

                 Gohan looked at the obvious and said with hyper "Uh Goten can you do me a big favor?" Goten looked at him food bulging from the sides of his mouth as he said "suref Gofan wif wat" Gohan looked at Goten and said "When Videl comes over you cant show her nearly your full power please?" Goten looked disappointed "But I want to show somebody my new trick"

                Chi-Chi eyed her son Goten suspiciously "what trick?" Goten smiled as he first lifted off the ground and secondly lifted his plate and started to eat with no hands. Chi-Chi grumbled "Sure you teach Goten but not anyone else" Gohan looked at his mother "I could teach you ma"

                 Chi-Chi said with a wave of her hand "I don't want to fly I'm perfectly fine right now as it is." Gohan looked at Goten suspiciously "You will keep your promise wont you Goten?" Goten nodded as he started to sit down in his chair "Cool I owe you one Goten now lets change to something that doesn't show as much muscles"

                Goten nodded as he went to his room grabbing a suit which once belonged to Gohan. It was a simple pair of jeans and a long sleeved black shirt. Goten nodded getting on his pair of jeans and black shirt. Chi-Chi saw the boys and said with sparkling eyes "Don't you two look adorable!"

                'One fifty don't worry Gohan she wont be here for another ten minutes' Gohan sighed as he told Goten to lift the pile of woods from the training area using his ki he had gotten half the wood when Gohan heard a copter coming. Goten picked up on it to and said with haste "Come on Gohan help me before Videl gets here."

                 Gohan nodded taking all the wood but one pile setting it next to the house. The plane landed and Videl had soon stepped out wearing her usual outfit. Goten wanting to embarrass his brother said with an evil grin, "Is that who Mom says is your girlfriend?"

                Gohan clasped his hand over the boys mouth as he blushed looking to the glare of Videl as he said with haste "That's what mom thinks we are just friends Goten." Videl smiled as she bent to Goten giving him a smile "So your Gohan's brother he talks about you all the time I hear you're pretty strong."  Goten blushed as he looked down bashfully "Yes miss Videl."

                Videl smiled as she looked at Gohan raising an eyebrow "Do you always wear sweatshirts and jeans?" Gohan scratched the back of his head "Uh yea." Goten grinned wanting to freak out his brother more "Hey Gohan can I spar with Videl?" Gohan glared at Goten as Videl laughed, "You would have to ask Videl" Gohan said whispering something that only Goten could hear

                "If you do spar with her go easy on her and if you will please lose." Goten smiled and whispered back "but I want to show her my new trick." Gohan glared at Gohan "You do and I wont teach you the Misenko." Goten had a puppy dog look on and deciding it wouldn't work looked at Videl saying with a grin "Can I spar with you miss Videl?" Videl shook her head "Sorry kiddo but I want to meet Your mom and help her with cooking how about you spar with Gohan real fast while I watch?"

                 Goten grinned at Gohan as Goten nodded getting in ready position "Remember your just a kid not someone who could blow up a city" Goten smiled as he jumped at Gohan going at a slow pace which was pretty fast for Videl. Gohan dodged each one as he jumped over Goten tapping lightly on his head Goten look up to see Gohan smiling "Nice acting squirt"

                 Goten grinned widely saying with a bow "I learned from the best" Videl clapped "Nice match when Dinner is done maybe ill spar with you Gohan" Gohan paled as Videl walked inside Goten finding this hilarious and started to roll on the ground tearing at the eyes.

                "So your Videl Satan? Gohan told me all about you" Videl blushed as Chi-Chi continued with a grin "so your daughter of the man who beat Cell?" Videl sighed "Yea" Chi-Chi grinned 'Good she's not very enthusiastic about that low down crook who stole fame from my boy' "So you cooked Gohan lunch?" Videl blushed "Yea but that's only because I smashed his other one on accident."

                 Chi-Chi grinned Gohan said you were an excellent cook and coming from my Gohan that must mean that your as good as me. Videl blushed a bright crimson "I doubt that miss Son." Chi-Chi smiled "please call me Chi-Chi" 'or mom' she thought evilly.

                 "Well you can start by cooking that over there" Videl nodded as she started to fix dinner "This looks like a ton of food" Videl said in amazement "actually its only fifty pounds of food I hope its enough.

                "Yea I see how Gohan eats." Chi-Chi nodded "You never get used to the amount the boys can eat." Videl looked questioningly. "Didn't Gohan tell you that Vegeta and Trunks were coming?" Videl nodded "And they eat as much as Gohan?" Chi-Chi nodded "Vegeta eats more than Gohan but thankfully Trunks and Gohan eat as much as an adult"

                Videl stood only for a minute more redoubling her efforts she started to fix dinner with haste. "I hope we can finish in time then." Chi-Chi grinned wanting to change the subject "I should give you a hair cut dear and maybe I can lend you a dress." Videl looked down at what she wore  "Ill take the dress but a haircut?" Chi-Chi nodded "Gohan said you were going to spar with some of the guys and I don't want them to have an advantage with your hair."

                Videl sighed 'I hope Gohan likes short hair' she thought dreamily Chi-Chi grinned, "So are you and Gohan going out?" Videl fumbled a bit and said with a huge blush "Why did Gohan say we were?" Chi-Chi felt like laughing but thought better of it "No he keeps saying your just friends. But I think you look like the perfect couple."

                 Videl blushed even redder "But we are just friends" said Videl her blush going to a deeper crimson "Oh well hope I didn't embarrass you any dear" Videl looked up her blush fading as she saw a picture of Gohan Chi-Chi and somebody else.

                "Excuse me Chi-Chi but who is that?" Videl said pointing to the man in the picture "That's Goku my late husband Gohan talks about him doesn't he?" Videl shook her head "He does but not a lot" Chi-Chi lowered her head "He still blames himself" she said with depression.

                "Why does he blame himself?" Chi-Chi smiled "Never mind dear." Chi-Chi lifted her head "You do know that all the people coming saved the earth right?" Videl was dumbfounded "How? I know they watched the cell games but…" Chi-Chi waved her hand

                "The earth has been in danger more than once dear before Satan became so powerful my husband and his friends saved the earth" Videl interested poured another batch of rice into a very large bowl starting another batch and listened "You might be too young to remember but do you recall when those aliens invaded the earth?" Videl nodded "I thought they just left" Chi-Chi shook her head "Oh no dear each one of them fought some of them being badly injured" Videl looked down "Yea I saw that one guy get killed by a kamikaze."

                Chi-Chi shook her head "He didn't die he was able to escape the Kamikaze they just didn't show it Then the stations went out and I couldn't tell you how worried I was about my husband I wanted to go out there with a machine gun and fight also" Videl was surprised as Chi-Chi lowered her head "None of the Z fighters got the respect they richly deserved and I respect them because they didn't care."

                 Videl was in disbelief "They sound like the complete opposite of my dad. He does anything for credit." Chi-Chi smiled "Yes anything." Videl wasn't sure what she meant by that but she knew she couldn't get Chi-Chi to tell so she just went to cooking.

                Gohan greeted first Yamcha telling him the situation and soon he had told everyone except Piccolo and the infamous Vegeta who arrived by car. "Why must we take the car woman?" Bulma shook her head "Because I said so now be quiet we are guests."

                Vegeta looked with contempt to Gohan and said with a smile. "You haven't been training brat of Kakarrot" Gohan only nodded "I haven't had time sorry if I hadn't had a good spar with you in a while." Vegeta grinned "How about right now?"

                 Gohan put on a face of sorrow "Sorry Vegeta but I have a guest who thinks we are all weak and we have to go along with it… second thought you can go ahead and be as strong as you want since its hard for you to hide "but don't turn Super or else you will be called Puar or Oolong or Roschi."

                Vegeta looked disgusted "Fine son of Kakarrot but I demand a spar once the filth leaves." Gohan glared at Vegeta "Ill go to your house tomorrow she plans on staying the night." Vegeta's attitude immediately changed when he heard the word She. "So Gohan you found a mate?"

                Gohan blushed "We are just friends!" Vegeta started to laugh as Bulma and the rest put in congratulations on the new girlfriend "BUT WE ARE JUST FRIENDS!" Gohan said everyone else looking skeptical Vegeta then said with vigilance "Tell me Gohan have you laid her yet?" Gohan's hair started to flicker gold as Vegeta laughed but stopped suddenly as Bulma stepped behind him whispering something making Vegeta pale

                "The two things the woman is good at and she threatens to take them both away" Gohan realized what Vegeta meant by two things one was Cooking the other made Gohan blush thinking about it. Piccolo arrived soon  "Hey piccolo!"  Greeted Gohan giving his mentor a pat on the back. "Hello Gohan"

                 Gohan started to speak when Piccolo cut him off "I know I heard you telling everybody else from a mile away literally." Gohan went white as a sheet "I hope Videl didn't hear. Piccolo smiled and nudged him with a grin. "Oh your "Friend"?" Piccolo asked his smirk widening as Gohan gave him a glare. Suddenly all focus was turned to food (except for Piccolo's) as Gohan heard another one of his favorite statements "Dinners Done!"

                It was surprising everyone fit evenly Between Bulma and Krillin's family. There wasn't much room and the gentleman Gohan volunteered to stand. Piccolo took his seat; the people who were able to make it were Krilin and family, Yamcha, Bulma and family Chouzou, Tien and piccolo.

                Gohan looked over and saw out of the corner of his eye another table he glided over to it picked it up and sat it down next to the other table and everyone was able to sit evenly. With five seats to spare Chi-Chi smiled as Gohan looked around "Don't worry Gohan Videl will be down shortly" Almost everybody snickered at what Chi-Chi said but stopped abruptly as Gohan looked at them.

                 He heard foot steps and what he saw made Yamcha's Krillin's and Vegeta's mouth open Vegeta and Yamcha were lucky Vegeta was hit over the head by Bulma making his mouth shut Yamcha was hit by Chi-Chi's frying pan and Krillin wasn't very lucky at all for unlike every one else his wife was very strong.

                Videl came from one of the rooms she wore a black dress that split to mid thigh with spaghetti straps a necklace of emeralds and a bracelet with a few turquoise stones embedded within it. Yet she refused to wear the high heels.  Gohan had wide eyes as he saw that Videls hair was cut short she sat next to Gohan him being the only one she knew.

                Videl was unsure of herself as she walked to the dining room wearing such an outfit and having her hair cut short. She was immediately encouraged though as she saw the look that most of the men gave her and after getting over the shock of seeing a green man up close laughed at the fact that most of the men who had given her such approving looks had been smacked by the women at the table.

                 She took a seat next to Gohan who looked at her, her blush brightening as he said with a sigh "You look beautiful Videl." Videl had received those words from other students before but it seemed like a compliment when it came from Gohan and not just a pick up line.

                 "Thank you" she said timidly. Vegeta grinned quite evilly as he said "So your Gohan's Mate?" Videl turned a surprised eye over to Vegeta. 'Mate? Who the hell says mate?' Videl thought as she blushed a deep crimson, Gohan flushed also but with anger "Vegeta I told you she's just a friend!" Vegeta started to laugh but was silenced as something underneath the table happened and Bulma had the look of satisfaction on her face Vegeta quite the opposite.

                Bulma smiled and said "Hello the names Bulma Briefs its nice to meet you." Videl said shyly "Hi my name is Videl Satan." Everyone except for Gohan Chi-Chi Goten and Videl looked at each other for a few moments and then laughed hysterically most of them coming to tears. Vegeta was the first to recover "You picked a fine one Gohan"

                 Gohan blushed and said with a glare "That's enough" immediately everyone calmed down. Videl looked on in a shock, she had been laughed at. She was starting to become depressed until Krilin said with a sigh "Wow the daughter of the man who beat cell it's an honor."

                 Videl just looked glum "Yea I guess so." Krillin looked at Videl and said with a sigh "Don't be so sad we weren't laughing at you its just we find it amusing that Gohan …" Krillin stopped talking as he took on a look of pain eighteen pinching his arm with a lot of force

                "We were laughing that Gohan was able to get you to come over! Jeeze you didn't need to pinch me." Videl looked at Gohan and then at everyone else he was probably the weakest in the group everyone else showed a great deal of muscle he's probably considered a nerd. Videl suddenly remembered why she came here "Did any of you cheat in the cell games or the World Martial Arts tournament?"

                All of them looked serious at that then Vegeta answered "It is dishonorable to cheat we would never do such a thing." Videl believed him and then asked another question "How do you people know the people with gold hair." Vegeta looked on in shock "You told her?" Gohan nodded his head "Everyone knows about the people with gold hair." Vegeta nodded "They were close friends of all of us. Videl then asked where are they now. Vegeta considered his words carefully realizing he had become the representative of the group.

                "One lives happily two died and one was drained too much to be healed by a hospital." Videl looked on with sorrow "Where is the one that lives happily?" Vegeta decided to take the fall then have Gohan tell her "its me" Videl was shocked Vegeta continued "Of course after the fight my hair turned back to black and my eyes lost their color."

                "What about the boy that fought?" Vegeta once again contemplated what to say Gohan saved him. "He was too injured to be healed by the hospital" Videl looked down "sorry for your losses" Vegeta looked to the ceiling 'Only one loss' Videl then asked "please don't think me rude but how did Goku die?" Everyone's face turned to a grimace "he died to a heart disease" Gohan answered silently "Oh" said Videl everyone was saved by the silence that followed when Chi-Chi brought in the food Gohan looked on with enthusiasm as Chi-Chi said "dig in"

                Videl saw that in less than five minutes the four men had cleared two plates apiece the food disappearing slowly. Krillin muttered "you Sayians." Videl looked to Krillin and asked "Sayians?" all the people except for Videl glared at him as he said "just a nickname!" everyone went back to eating as Krillin saw his life flash before his eyes.

            Soon everyone was getting ready to go Yamcha Tien and Chouzou had agreed to run and piccolo said he would just walk. Once they had all left Videl was sitting on the couch Gohan sit next to her "You didn't spar with any of them"

 Gohan said grinning "I believed them when they said they didn't cheat" Gohan nodded "So did my mom talk you into the dress?" Videl nodded "She thought I could look feminine" Gohan smirked "Well you certainly can" Videl blushed. Videl gazed into Gohan's eyes as she became lost in the sea of black.

 Gohan was looking into her eyes as both of them started to lean towards each other "HEY GOHAN!" Gohan nearly shot up about five feet as Goten snickered behind him "Did I catch you off guard brother?"

 Chi-Chi came out of a corner and promptly dragged Goten off by the ears 'They were so close!' Chi-Chi seethed. Gohan looked to Videl and smiled apologetically "Sorry" he said as he got up and walked to see his brother.

 Videl was shocked 'I almost kissed him I almost kissed Gohan! Don't I want it to stay a friendship?' Gohan while catching up with Chi-Chi thought nearly the same thing. Gohan heard Chi-Chi scolding Goten, she caught sight of Gohan and said with a smile. "Oh Gohan your going to sleep on the couch tonight Goten is sleeping on the roof and Videl is sleeping in your room."

 Gohan agreed especially with Goten sleeping on the roof and hurried to his room hiding the Training Gi and the senzu beans. "Hey Videl." He called out to the couch seeing Videl asleep he smiled as he picked her up carrying her to his bedroom he was very amused when Videl snuggled up against his chest as he gently set her down in his bed taking off the jewelry and setting it on the desk next to his bed. He smiled as he walked out the room.

A/N yea just R/R I think I did an ok job though I got really disgusted with myself at some parts. I found out that I do chapters by weeks it goes from Sunday to Saturday for one week I know theres an exception for it being Friday at the very beginning but that's just one thing also if any one has any suggestions I promise to consider each one.

(Oh and for those of you who don't know I once had this published before with intent of a lemon but I found I couldn't do it for a number of reasons… Anyhow this is just me publishing it again because I just couldn't let it soak up space on my hard drive.)
