Guiding Light
Whoo! Chapter 4 already! Hay ho! So … I lied about making SMALL revisions, the whole story's basically been changed … ^^;; sorry … sorry … my mistake … heh … heh … well … hmmm … a new character will make her FIRST appearance in the story … No prizes to whom it is ^^
I'm sorry … I don't mean to put SO MANY blond/e's into this story … not that I'm against blonds or anything … but it just sorta happened … there's like, what? At least 6 blond/e's here?
I, personally, haven't seen GT *sniff* But I'm proud to say that I know quite a fair bit about it, and I have decided that Paris is one of the more beautiful girls of the series … yeah … I stretched that a bit in the story, hope ya don't mind! ^~
O_O Enjoy this chapter … kay?
Chapter 4: Enter Paris!
"I hate her! I hate her! Argh! I absolutely hate her!" Screamed the blonde.
"What's the big deal anyways?" Asked Goten, throwing a grape in his mouth, followed by the whole container of deliciously looking juicy spheres, "It was just a pair of shoes, go buy another pair."
"It wasn't JUST a pair of shoes!" His girlfriend wailed, "They were really, really, really cute booties! And were genuine leather!"
Casey made a choking sound at the mere mention of leather. Still, Ashley hissed on, "Oh, when I get my hands on her, she'll wish she was never born!"
"Who?" Asked Pan, who was late as usual since she had misplaced her assignment, "Who'll wish she was never born?"
Ashley narrowed her eyes, "The same person who wrecked my beautiful boots! You know, short, blonde, skinny, annoying, bitchy-"
"Sounds kinda like you." Muttered Kevin, whom did not like Ashley at all, in fact, he hated her guts.
"What did you say?" Questioned the girl, "You better not have said what I thought you said, Engle, or else, I swear, you're really in for it."
Kevin rolled his eyes and resumed eating, he knew better than do argue with certain angry blonde females, especially those who have two-inch long nails.
"So, anyways, Pan, did you find your homework?" Asked Janelle.
"Yeah, and I'm glad too, some nice guy in my biology class picked it up, I would've hated to redo that assignment." Pan set down her tray on the table, "I think his name is … um … Josh Cline… er … something like that."
"You mean, Jake Kline?" Screeched Kamala, "That really cute guy in my art course with those darling green eyes and white-blond hair?"
"Oh, really, Kamala." Huffed Janelle.
"Er … I think so, I didn't really notice his eyes, but yeah, I think that's him." Pan nodded, not aware of all the strange stares that were given to her by the older kids at the table.
"He's on the football team, only a first year, but he somehow managed to secure a position as a flanker, I don't know how, though, since the football tryouts aren't for another week or so." Goten said thoughtfully as he bit into his 24' B.L.T sub, "That's pretty weird, since he's so popular, I personally haven't met him, but according to some of my sources, he's got an older sister who goes here, a very popular sister, I'm not sure who."
"Anyone we know with that last name and those descriptions?" Asked Kevin, "I don't trust him, I don't know how he managed to pass as a red, he seems awfully … nice, I mean, girls love him, guys like him, he gets perfect grades, and how he managed to get on to the football team before the tryouts is also strange. Only naturally great players like Goten secure their position before a tryout, and since Jake's a first year, that just isn't possible."
Pan eyed Ashley carefully, "Hey, Ashley, you seem to fit under the description, green eyes, white-ish blonde hair, are you sure he isn't your brother?"
"I don't have a brother, I'm an only child." Muttered Ashley, still frustrated over her boots.
"But what's weird about that Jake guy is that he's never in the cafeteria, you never see him aside from school hours, and despite his popularity, he never attends any parties, even though he's that kind of guy, it's almost like, he lives in a whole different world or something." Added Goten.
"Who cares who he is or what he does? Doesn't anyone care about my boots?" Wailed the blonde girl.
Goten sighed, "No, I don't think so."
"Fine, nobody cares … I'll just go and kill that blonde bitch all by myself, if you won't help me!" Ashley huffed.
Goten groaned, "Must you make a big deal out of this? I'll buy you a new pair after lunch, alright?"
"Really? You'll go shopping with me?"
"If you'll stop making such a big deal of the boots, so what if they're a bit dirty?"
The girl didn't pay much attention to the last part of his comment, she instead, stood up and announced, "Lunch's over, c'mon sweetie." She managed to grab Goten's hand and drag him out of the cafeteria.
Kevin shook his head, "He's asking for it …"

"Honestly, Bra, you seem to be daydreaming again, hello?" The blonde waved a hand in Bra's face impatiently.
"Oh … sorry." Bra shook her head as she and Marron advanced down the hallway.
"What's up? Is something … or someone on your mind?" Asked Marron.
"No, not really."
"C'mon, you can tell me, can't you?" Pleaded the older girl.
"Well …" Bra sighed, she had been awfully lonely without Pan, Marron and her new friends were great, but there was something that was lacking within them, she and Pan were always best friends, but just like Marron had predicted, Pan had made a whole bunch of new friends, became popular, and well, quite frankly … ditched her, "No, really, I'm not thinking about anyone."
"All right then." Marron didn't seem quite convinced.
The two continued walking in an awkward silence, until a pretty blonde girl stopped beside Bra and smirked at her, "You're his sister, aren't you?"
"Pardon me?" Asked Bra, she shot Marron a look, but the older girl was shooting daggers at the other blonde.
The blonde sighed and stuck a hand to her hip, "Hel-lo? Your hair isn't dyed, I could tell, if it were, it wouldn't have that soft, yet still shiny texture, and since he claimed to have a sister, who better than a blue-haired one?"
"I prefer cerulean, or beryl, if you don't mind." Muttered Bra, "Blue is so … crude …"
"See? What'd I tell you?" Laughed the blonde, "You even act like him, the over-protectiveness of the hair an' all." She mock voiced Trunks, "Oh, shut up, my hair isn't purple! It's Violet! Violet! Personally, I don't give a crap about what colour his hair is, so long as he's still hot, you seem … okay … nice figure and looks and all, not a half-bad fashion sense if I do say myself, name's Jewel, glad to make your acquaintance," The girl grabbed Bra's hand and the beryl-haired girl winced in pain as her long nails dug into her palm, "Anyways, perhaps you could come shopping with me sometimes, well, look at the time, I better go, ciao!"
Bra gawked as the girl tossed her long, blonde hair and turned the corner, "Well … umm … she seemed nice …"
"Nice?" Laughed Marron, "Perhaps you do not know her, let me clarify something, she's the school slut, rumor has it that she slept with six guys in one day! And at the same time too!"
Bra was beginning to grow annoyed at the older girl's nagging, she said that gangs were big trouble, Pan joined one and was having the time of her life! Now, this really nice girl comes up and makes friends with her and Marron claims that she's the school slut … the girl shook her head, she just didn't know anymore …

As lunch break ended, the students piled into the hallway all at once, eager to get to their destinations, various reds and blacks were scattered all over the place, there had not been a major fight in days, which was a plus sign for the entire school.
Of course, with every up there comes a down …
The large school doors were pushed open, and more students rushed out of them, no one noticed the girl that had entered the building, mainly because of her attire, a pair of dark sunglasses covered her eyes, a large, yet strangely chic hat hid her hair, and a pale yellow mini-dress surrounded her full, curvy figure.
The girl glanced around the hallways, removing her sunglasses in the process, allowing full vision of her enormous, and dazzling bronze eyes.
At last, she had found what she was looking for … and a smile crept on her rose lips as she watched the couple in amusement.
:"I'm never going shopping with you again." Goten fumed.
"Why not? It was fun, wasn't it? And besides, it wasn't my fault that you didn't want to go shop for shoes." Snapped his girlfriend.
"But did you really need to try on every pair? I mean, the different kinds of shoes were bad enough, but colour too?" The Saiya-jin boy sighed.
"Well, when I shop, I like to be through, and besides, what's your problem anyways? It wasn't like it lasted for the whole day! God!"
Goten shook his head and sighed, "Let's just hope that you never ruin another pair of your shoes again, I can't take the stress of shopping with you."
Ashley fumed at him and turned around, "Oh really?"
"Yep, I pity anyone who has to shop with you. Their souls will wither away from boredom!" Goten grabbed his throat and pretended to choke.
Ashley glared at him while snatching her bags from his hand, with quite a loud hmph she stomped off down the hallway.
The girl smiled, what perfect timing, Goten and his little girlfriend were having a disagreement, she couldn't have dreamt for a more perfect situation. It was quite easy, actually, all she needed to do was pretend that she didn't know him. So she put her sunglasses back on and strutted towards the annoyed Saiya-jin who was muttering to himself, "Sure … I carry all her bags and I don't even get a thanks … "
He felt someone tap his shoulder and spun around, he was greeted by a girl wearing a white sun hat, with Hollywood style shades, and as every boy would do, he just had to check out her figure, didn't he? And well … let's just say that the dark-haired boy liked what he saw, so after he eyed her figure, he put on that charming smile of his and asked, "Can I help you, Miss?"
"Oh, that would be great, I was just wondering where the office was, you see, I'm new to this school and don't really know my way around."
A grin crept on Goten's face, "Well, it's a bit further down the hallway, sorta complicated to explain, but if you don't mind, I could show you around."
"Could you?" Cried the girl, "Why, that would be wonderful! I was so dreadfully afraid that I wouldn't be able to find my way around here."
So, Goten led the girl down the hallway, showing her all the necessarily places, the office, the labs, the library, and so on, it wasn't long before they were finished the tour, as they turned that one dreadful last corner, a girl came dashing out of the rooms, just oh so conveniently knocking the white sun hat off of the surprised girl …
Who was not nearly as surprised as Goten, who muttered at the sight of the brunette beauty,
"P-Paris?"
~*~
"I saw your sister today." Chirped the blonde, "She seemed interesting enough."
"Hmmm …" Trunks was absorbed in a book, and was not listening to her.
"Whatcha reading? Some latest porn magazine?" Teased Jewel as she walked around him to see the title of the book, "Watership Down? What kind of book is that?"
Trunks looked up, "It's quite fascinating, all about rabbits, see, there's this rabbit named Fiver, and he's like, this weird psychic rabbit, and then his brother, Hazel is this leader dude, and my personal favourite rabbit, Bigwig, or Thlayli in Lapine, which is rabbit language, is sorta a tough guy who doesn't respect Hazel at first but then, soon, he begins to warm up and they become friends, of course-"
"Please, spare me the details, I am not interested in a book about rabbits."
"Suit yourself." Trunks shrugged and went back to reading.
"Oh, come on, you have to come with me … please? You can read your rabbit-book some other time." She tugged on Trunks' arm.
"Why must you constant bother me to go someplace with you? I went with you to sabotage what's her name's boots last time."
"Sure, claim to help me sabotage some boots while making out with some girl in a bush, eh?"
"For your information, I was not making out with her." Corrected Trunks.
"Sure, sure, whatever, so? Who was it?" Asked Jewel excitedly, wondering what kind of new girlfriend he had gotten.
"What do you mean?"
"Oh, don't play dumb with me, c'mon, who was the girl that was with you?"
Trunks turned a page in the book, "He stopped. No one moved. Then, in the silence, Bigwig lurched to his feet, swayed a moment, tottered a few steps towards Fiver and fell again. Fiver paid him no heed but looked from one to another among the rabbits. Then he began speaking again."
The blonde stomped her foot, "Are you ignoring me?"
" 'And then we came, over the heather in the night. Wild rabbits, making scrapes across the valley. The warren rabbits didn't show themselves at once. They needed to think what was best to be done. But they hit on it quite soon. To bring us into the warren and tell us nothing. Don't you see? The farmer only sets so many snares at a time and if one rabbit dies, the others will live that much longer.'" Trunks gasped, "My god, Cowslip and his warren were all evil! All evil!! I knew it! But Strawberry and his doe didn't seem that bad, and poor Fiver as right all along!"
Jewel narrowed her eyes, "I was going to tell you something of importance, but since you are being very annoying, I guess I won't." She tossed her hair back and turned around.
Trunks rolled his eyes, " Were you going to inform me that you thought that Fiver was right?"
"No! I was not going to inform you about some fictitious rabbits!" Screeched Jewel, "I was going to tell you that, that girl, what's her name, the girl who you are so obsessed over, is here! Now! Right here! Right Now!"
Trunks raised an eyebrow, "Who are you talking about?"
Jewel randomly pointed one of the hundreds of posters and magazine covers and photos pasted on the violet-haired man's wall, "Her! Her! Her! No! Not a female rabbit! Her!"
"You mean doe, not female rabbit, since that is not very appropriate, and-" Trunks stopped in mid-sentence, "You mean Paris? Here? Now?"
"Would I ever lie to you?"
"Yes, of course."
"Well, I'm not lying now, really. I saw her just a few moments ago, really, she was with … what's her face's boyfriend." Jewel held up a hand, "I swear."
"She was with … Goten?" Asked Trunks as he flung his book on the sofa and proceeded to head out the door before turning back around, "Don't lose my page."
"I wouldn't touch the thing." Sighed Jewel as she watched Trunks leave, she walked slowly towards the sofa and picked up the book, flipping to about halfway through the book, "'Hazel!' he whispered. 'The cats! Dear Frith, why are their eyes glittering green like that? Look!' Hazel sat up quickly and as he did so Dandelion leapt back in real terror, for Hazel's eyes were shining a deep, glowing red in the dark. At that moment the humming vibration grew louder, quenching the rushing of the night breeze in the elms." Jewel closed the book and sighed, "Ugh, why would he read something like this?"
She threw the book halfway across the room and left, unaware of the book knocking over a binder that was resting on the computer desk, causing it to fall to the floor and hundreds more of pictures of a certain brunette beauty came fluttering on to the ground.
End of Chapter 4
Watership Down is by far my very favourite book, if any of you *points to whoever's reading this* haven't read it, I recommend you go and buy or borrow a copy right now, it is such a wonderful book!
See? See? Even Trunks likes it! ^^
I was debating silently to myself as I was waiting for the bus this morning, if Goten and Trunks played an instrument? What would it be? At first I thought of Trunks playing drums, but then I decided that Goten would be better on Drums, can't you just picture the ebony-haired stud bashing away on those drums? And anyways, I think Trunks would be better playing a saxophone of some kind, Alto is too small, Baritone is too … low … Soprano is too … high … so that leaves the Tenor Saxophone … but Goten would also be good playing Trumpet, and Trunks guitar …
Well, whatever, I'll need your opinion?
What instrument, if any, should Goten and Trunks play?
Vegeta: What would I play?
Cello, no doubt.
Vegeta: Cello? O_o
Poodle: Heh, I'm a pianist …
Vegeta: What the hell? I thought I blew you up!
Poodle: Well, that was in Chapter 10 of the old version of Guiding Light, since that version doesn't exist anymore, I now do.
Vegeta: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well, anyways, here I am, getting carried away again, if I ever get a dog, I'd name it Hotel … *nods* Yup, either that or Kero, but anyways, leave a little comment on your opinions of Trunks and Goten's instruments, kay? Thanx a lot! ^ ~
