Disclaimer: I do not own Dragon Ball Z or any of its characters. I also do not own the book Prophecy from which part of my idea comes from. By the way, the Saiyaman Saga never happened, but Buu will appear later on. Videl is a full blood Saiyajin.

Chapter Ten
Family Ties
The assembled group froze as the young woman cried out for Gohan. They watched the young man rushed to her side and comforted her. They weren't sure if it was Gohan; anyone could have obtained that kind of information.
'Did she know Gohan?' Bulma asked in her mind, 'Is the child she is pregnant with his?'
"Gohan?!" Goku repeated shocked, "As is my son, Gohan?!"
The young man turned and grinned. Only a true Son could pull off the grin that the young man was doing. Goku let out a cry of joy, Chi-Chi fainted, and the other's just stood there shocked. This Gohan was way more powerful than Goku and Vegeta, both at their maximum, combined. He was muscular in the way that he looked powerful, but he didn't looked too bulky.
"Man!" Krillan suddenly yelled out, "Gohan what happened to you?! You take Steroids or something to impress the ladies?!"
Gohan lightly growled under his breath.
"No Krillan," he growled out, "This is from working and living in five hundred times normal gravity for one and a half years. Then eight hundred times normal for one more year. I spent the rest of the time planet-side on different planets and facing different problems. The last two years I've been on New Vegetasei with my mate-"
"MATE!?" They all repeated at once, shocked.
"Shh!" Gohan hissed, "You'll wake her!"
~~~~~~~~~
*It's too late, Gohan,* came a soft voice in his head, *I'm up.*
*You should rest,* Gohan stated to her softly, *You are in a very delicate condition.*
*I know,* Videl replied, *What condition I am in. Now set me down, please.*
*As you command, oh beautiful one,* Gohan replied with a laugh.
~~~~~~~~~
Gohan chuckled at the young woman's reply. He gently set her down on her feet and was thanked with a smile.
"Allow me to introduce myself," the young woman stated, "I am Videl, daughter of Queen Varie. I'm a first class born, but I was named Elite by my tenth year. I was born and raised on the planet New Vegetasei. Gohan and I are mates."
Gohan smiled at Vegeta's shocked look.
"Varie, sister of Vegeta," Gohan added absently, "Videl, niece of Vegeta and my mate."
"Niece of Vegeta?" Goku repeated, "That means we're now related, Vegeta."
"I refuse to be related to Kakarott!" Vegeta snapped, "That third class idiot does not deserve to be related to a Prince!"
"Vegeta!" Gohan roared angrily, "You and me right now!"
Vegeta snickered while Videl went totally white. Gohan was really mad and only Videl knew just how powerful Gohan was.
"Alright brat," Vegeta stated with a grunt and took the air, "If you want to loose your pathetic, low-classed life. Then follow me and prepare to get the beating of your life."
"The only one who will get a beating will be you, Vegeta!" Gohan growled and followed suit.
~~~~~~~~~
Gohan smirked at Vegeta as the two faced off. Vegeta was just as overconfident as he was when Gohan was eleven. At first the two just went Super, but then Gohan went to Super Saiyajin Level Two. Vegeta smirked and also went to SSJ Level Two. On the outside Gohan was smirking at the sight, but on the inside he was laughing at Vegeta. Then he went to Level Three, earning shocked looks from every one of them but Videl.
"Vegeta!" Gohan called coolly, "You cannot defeat me!"
"I can and I will, you low-classed brat!" Vegeta snapped and punched Gohan in the face.
The punch did not phase the young half-breed one tiny bit. Gohan smirked once again and gave Vegeta an uppercut to his chin and then another blow to the head. Vegeta went flying and crashed into the ground, creating a large crater in the earth. Gohan landed, smirked at the fallen form, and pulled his fist back for the final punch. He let it fly with an air splitting whistle.
*GOHAN!* Videl's mortified cry came to him, *STOP!*
Gohan's fist stopped centimeters from Vegeta's unsuspecting head. Gohan turned, with a look of disappointment on his face, and shot a look at Videl. It was a look like that of a small child whose favorite toy had just been taken away.
*Aw, Videl. Why'd you stop my fun?*
*FUN?! Gohan, you could have killed him!*
*Aw, come on Videl. I never really liked him anyway.*
*That's not a good excuse to kill him. He's Trunk's dad and our Uncle you know!*
~~~~~~~~~
The realization hit him like a ton of bricks. He could have killed someone out of cold blood and it scared him. He suddenly whimpered like a beaten dog and slowly backed away from both Vegeta and Videl with a hunted looked in his eyes. Before Videl could stop her mate, he rose into the air, and was gone from sight.
"Dammit!" Videl cursed, "It's happening again! That damn thing has come between me and Gohan for the last time!"
"What are you talking about Videl?" Goku asked his son's wife.
Videl turned to Goku with a look of pain in her eyes.
"Every time I think he's whole, that he's over it and we can have a life, the damned darkness comes back to tries and take over Gohan!"
"Darkness? What are you talking about?" Goku asked with a tone of concern in his voice.
"Half of his soul was ripped out Goku," Videl replied, "The darkness of the evil that lay dormant in him came awake at that time and he took to space in order to train, become stronger, and overpower the darkness. We thought it was over-that he'd won the battle. I now know he hadn't and the darkness was waiting for the right moment to rise back up."
