The Life of Son Gohan-Chapter 5
I'm really sorry that I* haven't been able to update my story lately. I was having problems at school and wasn't allowed on the computer until my marks were back up in the 90's *sigh* It sucks to have such high standards imposed on you. well, here's the next chapter! Thank you all for reviewing my fic, it's more than I expected and I appreciate it a lot.
***** Next Morning *****
Gohan woke up with the smell of breakfast in his nose, the sounds of his family in his ears and a sense of dread in his stomach. now normally Gohan would have just brushed it off as heartburn, but it was one of THOSE feelings. ya know, a bunch of androids is about to destroy life as you know it kind. Glancing at the calender on his bedside table Gohan realized just why he had this particular feeling. It was Thursday. The field trip to Bulma's was today. Gohan sighed and got up to take a shower, making sure to pick out his own outfit for that day. A dark blue long sleeve button down shirt, a white wife beater and slightly baggy jeans. He bought this with his own money that he earned helping Dr. Briefs lift things in the lab (Vegeta wouldn't do it because he called it "servant stuff"). After he had his shower he was laying on his bed when his dad called him for breakfast.
"Gohan, it's time to eat! come on, hurry! me and your brother can't eat with out you" Goku said sounding panicky.
"Alright, I'm coming already" Gohan said grumpily
Goku was slightly confused at his sons tone of voice but decided he was probably just hungry and headed down to the kitchen himself. Goku was getting slightly antagonized about the next day. It was a new tournament, another fight. It was going to be great, even if he didn't have much competition. Only his wife might stand about 2 minutes in the ring and that was a huge accomplishment.
Gohan rushed down the stairs, wolfed down his breakfast and ran out the door. He was going to be late if he didn't hurry and that was the last thing he needed today. A group of a few dozen was waiting outside in the main lot talking and laughing excitedly about the event about to take place. Landing about a block away he began to sprint and only just made it on time.
"What took you so long geek-freak? I would have thought you'da camped out here because it's not everyday you get to meet the smartest, hottest woman on earth, eh Ryo?" Sharpner Sneered.
Gohan looked up surprised to see Ryo standing there. *I didn't sense him. now I KNOW something is wrong with that kid! and Sharpner, he better not agitate me today, I'm liable to blow him into the next dimension. This is one of the worst days ever! in fact, this whole week so far has been a disaster. Now I'm going to take a tour of Bulma's house. What if Vegeta blows something/somebody up? What if Trunks and my brother are there? What if Vegeta drags me off to spar? how will that look to my classmates? some muscular guy in spandex dragging me off to fight. WHAT IF BULMA PULLS OUT BABY PICTURES! I have a TAIL in those. A TAIL for dende's sake.*
"-han! answer me! you just zoned out there." Videl said snapping her fingers in front of his face.
"Sorry Videl, just thinking." He smiled goofily
"You looked kinda red and angryish" Videl said, wondering silently if angryish was a word.
"I'm fine, don't worry about it!" he snapped and Videl looked hurt "Sorry, im in a bad mood"
A shrill whistle was blown and the students were being herded onto the bus that would take them to Capsule Corporation main building. No one noticed but Ryo's eyes seemed to sparkle a bit more than normal and he was grinning slightly. *Thank you for the idea's Gohan, you just made my life easier.* The Bus arrived about an hour later and people nearly crushed one another in their rush to get off and see Bulma. Gohan slunk along behind everyone, using them for cover. Bulma had just come out and was giving them an explanation on the basics when that stupid Ryo moved and she saw him.
"GOHAN! Your not avoiding lil' old me are ya?" said Bulma with a huge smirk on her face.
"O-of course not Bulma-chan" He said stuttering a bit
"Thats good dear. I still don't understand why you came, you've known this stuff since you were very young."
"Vegeta"
"oooooooooooooooh"
"ya."
They trailed off their conversation when they noticed everyone gaping at them. Bulma went back to her speech and Gohan went to stand by Videl, who was currently glaring at him from the corner of her eye. His class proceeded into the building and was just coming out of the main lab when they heard a loud bang. Two children who were slightly singed around the edges stepped out of a circular room followed shortly after by a man with tall spiky hair.
"It's that guy from the carnival! and he's beating on those kids again!" Videl screeched loudly
"Him?"asked Bulma pointing "Thats my husband, Vegeta. and the Chibi with purple hair is our son. they're not hurting each other dear, they're just sparing."
"THAT is sparing?" asked Videl with wide eyes.
"Yessssssssssssssssss......." Said Bulma slowly
"Kaka-brat number 1! so glad you could come! now lets spar!" Said Vegeta impatiently
"who's Kaka-brat mister?" asked a girl in Gohans class named Cherry.
"you know him by his human name, Son Gohan"
"And how would a nerd like him stand a chance against someone like you? he's a twerp." Sharpener scoffed
Vegeta started to crack up laughing while Gohan scowled. Sharpener was getting angry. It was the second time someone laughed at him for telling them Gohan was weak. Gohan growled and stormed over to the room, opened it, walked in and slammed the door behind him. Vegeta looked happy, which was weird.
"*sigh* would you rather watch the fight or continue the tour?" Bulma asked
A chorus of 'fight! fight! fight!' was heard so she gave in. Taking them up to a room with a large screen she produced a huge photo album and told them to come and look through it while the screen loaded. The pictures were all of a little boy with black hair and black eyes, they were of Gohan. Some of the girls squealed and tried to get closer. As Bulma turned the pages the boy on them got older. There were pictures of a baby, pictures of a toddler in a strange hat with a yellow ball, pictures of a boy in a blue spandex suit and armour, pictures of a pre-teen with spiky bangs who looked about 11 in a fighting Gi grinning madly. Then came the pictures of the same boy only with golden hair and teal eyes. Videl gasped. It was the same little boy who was fighting with Cell when the TV's camera got knocked out. She was sure of it. Suddenly the screen flicked to life and two figures in fighting apparel appeared. One was Bulma's crazy husband and the other was Son Gohan. Gohan had on a navy blue Gi with a light blue belt and funky looking cone shoes.
"Ready to fight brat?" Vegeta asked
"Of course." Said Gohan
They both had perfect warrior faces. devoid of any emotion except battle lust. With a load roar they flew at each other. The students eyes widened as they tried to keep track of who hit who and just where they were. They were moving faster than their eyes could, and the only time they caught a glimpse of them is when they knocked each other into the ground or they hit the wall. They finally stopped and just stared at each other after about an hour. It seemed to be over when Gohan and Vegeta both cupped their hands in front of themselves. Bulma's eyes nearly popped out.
"THEY WOULDN'T DARE!" She screamed
"BIG BANG!!!" Vegeta roared
"KA ME HA ME HA!!!!!!!!!!" Gohan yelled
Suddenly they shot huge light beams at each other but the blasts met in the centre and the following explosion caused the whole building to shake. When the static cleared they saw Vegeta on the floor and Gohan still floating up in the air, a superior grin on his face. *see how you explain this one Gohan!* Ryo thought
"Oh.My.God" was the most intelligent thing anyone could get out, except for Bulma that is.
"HOW DARE THEY!? THEY COULD HAVE WRECKED MY HOUSE! I TOLD THEM TO NEVER EVER UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES USE KI BLASTS IN THE HOUSE!!!" She screamed
This was what Gohan and Vegeta heard as soon as they walked into the room 5 minutes later in their normal clothes. After each of them got an earful the class got to continue the tour, looking over their shoulders every once in a while to see Gohan getting chewed out by Videl.
"Listen Videl, I'll tell you tomorrow ok? after the tournament." Said Gohan, cutting off her from saying any more.
Up ahead sounds of girlish screams reached their ears. It seems that Sharpener tried to kiss Bulma and Vegeta appeared out of nowhere to beat the living daylights out of him. Gohan walked up and pried Vegeta off effortlessly while whispering a warning in his ear. Gohan's class parted like the red sea when he tried to walk past the rest of the day. They were scared of the nerds strength, which seemed almost inhuman. Gohan was just glad that the day was over and he could go home and sleep.
***** Gohans house *****
The house was eerily quiet. It seems that his brother and father went out to the mountains and his mother locked herself in their storage closet again. She was acting really weird lately and asking about the tournament constantly. Not even his father was that bad. Sighing to himself Gohan went upstairs and flopped on his bed not even bothering to taking of his clothes he feel into a deep sleep, mentally preparing for the next day.
***** Look out ***** "Mwaahahahaha" Dende cackled "Who must you torment poor Gohan?"
"Well Mr. Popo, I do it to make him a stronger person, to prepare him for the future, to make him realize that life wont be easy, to-"Dende had his hand curled up into a fist in front of himself with tears streaming down his face at his own emotional speech.
"To make sure you get your booze?" asked Mr.Popo dryly
"That to I suppose" Dende said, then he walked away like nothing had happened.
"That boy should look into councillors, there have got to be better ways to deal with stress other than drinking."
***** Thank you all for reading this chapter! please leave a review if you liked it. I'm going to answer a few questions I got in Reviews now.
1. I think Dende drinks in so many fics because of the stress. wouldn't you be stressed having to run the world? I sure know I would be! :)
2. Good stories? hummmm....I like Gohan Goes To Highschool, A Guide to Wilderness Survival and Field Trip To Camp Hercule.
Once again I'm really sorry about the lateness and any spelling mistakes I made.
