GOD BLESS AMERICA!!
A/N: Hello everyones! Oh my cot! I was reading my reviews when I read one that said that my comment on war was "not comforting"? I'm so sorry if I offended anyone. I didn't mean it like that. I was just saying that with the war happening many people were missing and have passed away. I was trying to say life is short so don't take anything or anyone for granted. You don't know when your time or that of anyone else is so even little things are important. I didn't mean that everyone is going to die because of the war. So like I said before admire the beautiful things while you still have the chance. I am.
Anyways, on with the story.
The bell had just rang signifying the end of the time that would have to be served at the prison entitled Orange Star High School.
Gohan finished copying down his homework and gathered up his belongings. As he walked outside he remembered just how bad the weather had been earlier.
The rain had temporarily stopped and he was hoping that he would get home before it started up again. 'Nothing like getting pelted by rain at two hundred miles per hour.' He mentally quipped. He had started on his way toward his usual "launching pad" away from most of the prying eyes that inhabited the area around his school.
He had told Videl and his other friends that he wouldn't be hanging out with them for a few weeks. He –had- to spend more time with his mother. He wasn't quite sure what was wrong, but one day many months before he had been sure that he had felt his 'tousans ki.
It had vanished and with it his mothers spirit. She seemed to go about everything like a zombie. She also refused to talk about what was bothering her, to Gohan and Gotens' dismay.
As he took flight and started towards his house he felt it again. Gokus' ki. It was coming from West City, where Capsule Corps. was. The last time he paid it no heed and then regretted the fact that he hadn't checked it out. He refused to regret anything this time. He headed off towards Capsule Corps. at top speed.
'Haven't been here in ages.' Gohan thought as he landed in front of the house. 'Strange how you just loose contact with people.' He approached the door and knocked.
A few seconds later, the door was flung open by Goten and Trunks. Bulma saw no reason why the duo shouldn't answer the door, if there had been someone with the gall to try something Goten and Trunks could more that handle it.
"Oh my goodness, Gohan, there is this really cool guy here. You gotta meet him. He's nice and looks just like me!" Goten exclaimed excitedly while letting Gohan enter the house. "It's kinda strange though." He finished as they were ascending the stairs.
'He's really here!' The anticipation was starting to build inside of Gohan as Goten and Trunks drug him towards the back of the house.
The first sight he caught of Goku was when the boys pushed open one of the many doors lining the hall they had been walking down.
"Daddy?" Gohan's voice seemed small and childish suddenly. It was laced with pleading.
"Gohan!" Goku grabbed his eldest son in a huge embrace that was returned whole- heartedly. Gohan could feel the tears stinging the back of his eyes. He was still in a stage of shock as the young boys left the room.
The last memory he had of his father was when he was eleven. Goku had given his life trying to save the earth from Cell. Gohan remembered crying and yelling for his "'Tousan" the most. The pain and anger that was left burning in him was what helped him destroy Cell.
Still, if he could have changed anything to have his father with him over the past few years he would have.
"What are you doing here?" Gohan asked in a state of shock
"I'm taking care of Bulma."
"Shouldn't you be at home taking care of 'Kaasan and us." Gohan couldn't understand why his father wasn't at home with his ill wife.
"There's some things you don't know and won't understand." Goku placed a comforting hand on his sons' shoulder. He had grown so much, he was almost a grown man.
"Otousan, what's going on?" Gohan asked very somberly.
"Me and your mother are having," Goku paused before continuing. "Problems right now."
"She knows you're here? Why didn't she tell me?" Gohan questioned more to himself than his father.
"Iie. She doesn't, and I don't want you to tell her."
"But Daddy she-"
"No, Gohan. Like I said there are some things going on that you won't understand."
"Why won't you give me the chance to understand?" Gohan looked at his father with pleading eyes.
"Your mother and I aren't together anymore." All the happiness had been drained from the room and a somber emotion fell into its place.
Gohan took the news pretty well. Well, better than Goku expected. Yet still you could see the look of confusion and pain written clearly upon his face as he sat down on the bed in the corner.
"Naze?" The question was barely audible.
"I don't think I should tell you that. She should." This was one of the few moments when Goku was serious.
"Why can't you tell me I'm already here."
There was a long pause as Goku pondered if he should tell his son the reason that his mother and himself were not together. "She cheated on me." He decided to tell it like it was instead of sugar coating it. Goku also knew that if he didn't tell Gohan the reason he wouldn't leave the matter alone.
Gohan stared blankly at his father as the statement soaked in. It was a split second later that he got up and walked out of the room and took flight into the distance. Where he was headed Goku didn't know.
So what did you guys think? Hey I'm thinking of doing a one shot called "The Harem" it is going to be a V/B. If I do it will you read it? Please tell me before I waste precious time I could be using writing this.
Ja ne! ~_^
