~*~

SOMEWHERE=

Darkness… nothing more… nothing less…

"Don't fear failure… believe in yourself…" a female whispered.

"Who am I…? What am I? Who wants me? Why was I created? What's my purpose in life…? If I have any…" Videl's voice replied.

HOSPITAL=

"You know it's 2:30" Chichi looked at her watch, "This would be the exact time I'd as Gohan says 'babble on and on and ramble on about grandkids and why he and Videl should marry early and stop making such stupid break up when we ALL know they get back together'!"

Bulma nodded flipping through a cosmetic magazine while Chichi looked at a cooking one with fancy additions like the ones she had submitted herself.

"Doc, do you think she'll be awake by 5:00?" Hercule asked the female doctor.

"Why?" the doctor asked.

"Well, you know Amanda and my wedding is coming up… and she's suppose to be there… and she's very excited about it… Amanda wants us married today… and erm" the man was blushing crimson and fiddled with his fingers wildly to avoid eye contact.

"I-I see: sweat drop:" smiling half-way she nodded, "In a half an hour Mr. S and with time to spare"

"GREAT!" he beamed then gave her a huge smile, "Thank you Akiyo! Thank you"

Akiyo smiled at him, he use to be a fellow classmate of hers and her second closet friend "No problem-o"

He dashed down the waiting room to Videl's private one and repeated the message.

"Oh honey that's splendid and wonderful" Amanda smiled hugging her fiancée. 

He looked down at his fiancé with an animated expression cupping her cheek in one hand he kissed her nose, "Perfectly wonderful…" he whispered.

"EEEEWWWW! MY EYES HAVE BEEN SOILED!! YUEEHHOO!" Goten and Trunks fell over, "TOO MUCH KISSY, KISSY!"

"But don't forget in about ten or so years you guys will be like that …well more like Gohan and Videl but sort of like them" Domino said.

"You're like daddy! You practically swallowed a dictionary with some computers and encyclopedias!" Pan muttered rolling her eyes with an exasperate sigh. Domino meekly blushed with a small sweat drop rolling down his back. 

"You know it gets me wondering they spend SOME much time together it gets me thinking are they planning on 'waiting'  for the honeymoon like they are SUPPOSED to do?" Chichi rambled on turning the page of 'cuisine delicacies expertise', "Or like they say 'generation' these days don't go by the 'old days'! I mean come on! Not even teen is capable of having children as such there are LOTS of things to deal with right Bulma?"

Bulma nodded skimming through the newest products making a mental memo to shop at Bonjour chic.

"Wow you can get bra's 50% off at 'De ja vu Glamour'!" Roshi beamed to himself and Oolong with Yamcha peering over his head drooling.

"They sure know what models look hot!" Yamcha wiped the blood from Roshi's nose bleed off Roshi's nose.

"Oh red satin and silky laced underwear's for 70 zeni? Damn they look SE-XY!" Oolong chimed then groaned slightly feeling water land on his head. He peered up to see Yamcha drooling a water-all like Goku use to do for instance at his first W.M.A.T.  He moved just in time to miss a wallop one and dried his head with a tissue from his brown pants pocket.

"Man Yamcha get a hold of yourself or get a croak" Oolong muttered ringing out the drool his shuddered and threw it away.

"Huh? EEEIIWW!!" a female yelled.

Amanda.

"RRUUGGHH!! PIGGY, I'M GONNA ROAST 'YA THEN BURN 'YA THEN BURY 'YA THEN I'M GONNA DO IT AGAIN! YOU LIKE PORKER! HOW DARE YOU RUIN MY PERFECTLY REMODELED FACE!! YOU SWINE!" Amanda yelled chasing Oolong. Then receiving stares and gawking eyes she snapped, "What are YOU all looking at?"

"Not much" Roshi snickered and Yamcha laughed too soon everyone laughed even Hercule.

Amanda gave him a disapproving glare.

He cleared his throat, "Sorry Amanda" he tried to give her a straighten and tranquil look but failed miserably and laughed his butt off rolling on the floor and everyone joined in laughing.

Amanda glared at him, "*Laugh now fool… for soon… within eight hours YOU and your pathetic family shall be nothing more than a figment of everyone's imagination!*"

LATER=

"Videl... these accusations you've made about Amanda I cannot accept them…sorry sweet pea" Hercule sighed fixing his tea.

"I am NOT your sweet pea father" she growled.

"But you're my little girl… and"

"No I am NOT! I am seventeen years old! I am NOT a child anymore! You can't make even discussion for me and keep me from the world forever father! Just let GO!"

"…RUGH! As long as YOU live under MY roof you shall obey my RULES!" Hercule snapped.

"… I'm moving out…" Videl said flatly then turned with an icy glare, "Don't look for my at the wedding… or should I say the point of destruction…"

Storming out she ran into the new French maid who gasped holding Videl's dress in her arms.

"ZISS Videl! What ZI the meaning of zhis?" her accent returning.

Videl gave her a weak smile, "Sophie, return the dress, and get Cahokia in my room immediately!"

Sophie nodded slowly, "OK Ziss Videl, Z Zhall do zhat" then backed up finally recomposing herself she scurried down the halls.

Videl opened the French doors of her room running her fingers slowly down the bureau of oak.

Her room was delicately done, but now she realized she'd miss this place… where would she go?

LATER=

Her father was finish getting dressed in the parlor and Amanda getting her nails done as well as her blonde fair-haired prepared in the most elegant style.

Videl sneaked into her father's room, there was no memory of her mother… none of her, Videl, Tori or Serenity, none. Not even the picture they all took for his birthday last week.

Damn him, he didn't care for them or what? Was she jumping to conclusions?

"Father…" she softly said all she saw was Amanda! Amanda in this Amanda in lingerie, her cuddling with her father, this and that everything making her sick. What did SHE have that her mother didn't? Her mother was dreamily attractive and beautiful, black hair, brown eyes of mystery and wonder, studied martial arts like her father and had several other interests as he.

What did this bimbo do to her father?

The key lay within Amanda's room that was that.

AMANDA'S ROOM=

Videl tip-toed into the witch…erm: cough: sult's: cough:  room.

She eyed everything, which would is better than a human being a demi saiyan and all.

Pictures of Amanda filed the room and everyone with her father or one with her and or her brother or sister they where either tore out of the picture or crossed out with read marker with some...some strange markers.

Videl traced her fingers along the characters, "Hum… strange… yet fascinating… *upon the full moon… darkness shall fall upon this poor fool…*: gasp: *She's planning on k-killing us!* N-No…*But this IS the evidence I want!* But-but---"

"That's right idiot girl!" the female voice snickered.

Videl gasped leaning against the bureau frightened, well surprised.

"Am-Amanda" she breathed.

"One and only kid" she snapped. Her hair finely curled with some in an elegant French Bun and some let go by her ears and face. She wore light red lip-stick and powder but wore her skimpy ruby dress that even before she beans down or sits her underwear shows.

"*What a hussy!* what do YOU want Amanda?"

"Oh I don't know" she started out sarcastically as she waved hr hand lazily rolling her eyes, "I just wanted to know why this-this tom-boy is in MY room with her unsanitary hands upon MY lovely stuff!!"

LATER=

"Gohan, remember when we first asked you if you liked Videl and you where blushing?" Chichi asked chopping up the lettuce for lunch.

"No… I was NOT blushing" he muttered.

"Oh? And you're blushing now" Chichi hummed pouring rice into the pot of water.

"No I'm not" he pouted, "its asthma"

"Oh yeah, that's nice son, go find Goten and make sure that boy doesn't bring another animal in his Gi pants"

Gohan thought back a day before when they all had that peculiar dream, a woman was there, a saiyan woman she was dying. Two other females, one had blonde hair while the other had short russet colored hair; yes he was getting something. He had paced half the night until he awoke Goten after trying to recite all the laws physics and calculus.

Gohan's thoughts where jumbled up with the accusations Videl made not only about him liking Lime more than 'friends' basics and about her step-mother.

He didn't like Lime like that; he'd make that clear to BOTH of them, now there was the step-mother thing. He was over Capsule corps. Regular, well more than often, which had put Videl over the edge.

People where vanishing and some where having too low of temperatures.

Flashbacks=

"Do you think Pan and Damien (Changed again! I prefer it this way) need sweaters?" Videl pulled out two sweaters from a bag a blue one and a red one, "Did Chichi tell you what the weather is over at West City? Bulma maybe…? Heavy jackets perhaps? Should I bring them just in case? I'm worried like mad! I'm only 17, but I feel so strange" Videl got onto her knees searching Pan and Domino's suitcases M. Trunks had brought over an hour before.

"Sounds like a good idea see 'ya later" Gohan said pulling his jacket on with Pan and Domino's in hand grabbing the door knob of his bedroom door.

"Stop right there" Videl yelled slightly hysterically and light sniffs.

Gohan turned bewildered at why she stopped him.

She stood only a few feet away sniffing slightly fighting tears back.

"We've been together long enough for me to know your hiding something from me!" Videl said, "S-something's wrong on Earth… something evil! I know it!" her eyes shimmering giving the huge pang of guilt running as she sniff not bothering to wipe her tears as they rolled down her rosy cheeks, "I dreamt of my mother… she was happy but was slaughtered by someone I know…I want to know why this is all happening and why you cannot discuss this with me? You're drifting away from me!! How can we communicate like couples, if you won't try to talk with me?!" her fist shook with inner rage ready to erupt.

Gohan looked down sighing avoiding eye contact he dropped his hand from the door knob which was slightly opened. Taking a deep breath he said, "I-I can't…"

Pan and Damien watched through the crack of the door.

"That's not good enough" Videl yelled again her fist shaking nearing her limit as she looked from the side of herself and turned to eye him sharply, "People are disappearing, dying, and the Earth as well! WHAT'S going on? TELL ME!"

Gohan opened his mouth and closed it two times choosing his words carefully to avoid more emotions on either side or to reveal his troubles he finally swallowed and spoke, "Videl… not yet… please give me time" his voice cracked slightly as his heart wailed with pain seeing her in such despair… despair he unleashed. He opened the door right after Pan and Damien darted off.

Finally her rage at its peak she exploded, "WHEN CAN YOU TELL ME!!!"

He closed the door after that finally left but not truly he merely leaned on the opposite side of the door taking a deep breath once more.

"When?" Videl sobbed falling to her knees letting go of her emotions in a wail followed by sobs of which then muffled by the pillow she cried upon.

END OF FLASHBACK=

CAPSULE CORPS. =

"Oh Gohan what a pleasant surprise! Goten's coming he's just getting his stuff" Bulma chimed, "Come on in, it may take a while"

Gohan nodded, "Say Bulma is Vegeta around?"

"Gravity Room, where else" Bulma pointed over her shoulder indicating the hall to the GR.

Gohan nodded telling Bulma bye he headed to the GR, while Bulma went off to check on the boys to see if Goten was ready yet.

"*Though I STILL don't know why Gohan would talk to Vegeta! Of ALL people!* Bizarre" Bulma shook her head tapping her chin with her finger, "Saiyan teens"

"And then dad awoke and said 'woo, did I get married while I was asleep?' my mom went on a rampage the next day and pouted too! He was starved for three whole minutes! Major torture" Goten said.

LATER=

"But still what's with that dream" Gohan pondered.

"Get over it brat! You got bigger fish to fry! Besides we have to get to the solution as to why it's getting firkin' cooler than usually! I mean 10 degrees isn't what I've grown custom too these past damn nine years"

"Yeah I know that" Gohan rolled his eyes.

"Trust me…"

"Huh?" Gohan blinked.

LATER=

Gohan walked down the street as he watched the woman hand him a paper from a pile of folders.

"Hum… thanks… 'dreams show you what you least expect' bizarre …wait *that's exactly what Videl had said!*"

WAIT! The dream! The russet haired girl, he saw her before, at school! She was a new exchanged student, from-from somewhere. She said she transferred or something from a place he never heard of. At the time he shrugged it off and smiled but now suspicions lead to clues which proved one thing, Yulee wasn't from their world.

But how? How could he and the gang miss this? Surely a new life form could be detected where as her mysterious ki signals Videl pointed out. But they where the same strange ones he received from Videl and a few others including himself.

He remembered Yulee's glare at Videl, it was a suspicious glare which Videl was sort of out of it and grew nervous.

As if Yulee was searching Videl's being for something more than the eyes could see… not her body but her very being, her soul even.

It was even more nerve-wracking to Videl's sanity when Mr. Ukiah seated Yulee above Videl's seat.

Videl nearly passed out and he had fallen out of his seat.

Yulee's piercing azure eyes showed determination beyond her years of which she looked younger than some of the girls in their grade. 

She was brilliant too, fifth intellect student in Mr. Ukiah.

Gohan because of Chichi, needing not say more, Mai because of living with the Ox-king during parts of her child hood; Videl, having libraries after libraries filled with books, novels, and more books for which her mother loved. Then there was Orin, who loved ecology and bionetwork more than almost anything. 

She was more of a loner, keeping to herself and watched him and Videl in different school activities. He even got a feeling she was stalking them as Videl had when she first met him. But didn't really have concrete evidence since neither had sensed her but that feeling still remained within though he kept it to himself.

"Pathetic Gohan, you're always a prince for her! Prepared to through his life down for a princess to protect" Yulee had once said. Funny thing is, he is a prince from his mother's side and Videl's a princess from her mother's side. Besides he always would protect Videl from all obsolesces until she didn't need protecting. She had grown quite strong throughout her life.

LATER=

"It's a damn pity you found out of my plans all too soon princess" Amanda licked her teeth baring snake like canines and her eyes glowed dark red. She hissed darkly at Videl her golden locks flaring up as her skin turned blue she charged at Videl hissing and snarling.

"WWWWOOOO!" Videl jumped down to the floor as Amanda crashed into the wall leaving an imprint.

Charging again Amanda knocked over her pictures and flowers with vase collided with the walls and floor. Amanda took more of a trashing than Videl thought as she fought the woman. Her attacks where flawless now and with complete skill.

Rolling over the bed Videl dunged three attacks then Amanda's hands sprang and stretched grabbing Videl by the throat gagging her until she turned a light now darkening blue. Her attacks where to no avail and her strength quickly deteriorating. She gritted her teeth gasping several times to get some air into her lungs for her dear life was on the balance of ending. Amanda smirked adding a tighter squeeze upon Videl's throat.

Snickering even the more she cackled, "I guess you'll be out of the picture and out of my hair!"

Videl's body began to glow as she was losing consciousness.

"*…Gohan help me…*" Videl thoughts tears running down her face.

"Videl, Gohan's one the phone" Hercule said opening the door.

He found a gasping Videl and a frantic Amanda.

"Did you get the name of the hurricane that went by here?" he blinked.

"Oh Hercule," Amanda said fixing her mussed blonde hair, "look what this-this tyrant did to my room! It looks like a disaster" she yelled pointed at Videl who glared finally getting her normal ivory color back into her face.

Videl didn't say anything.

"Videl is this true?" Hercule asked with a slight edge to his voice.

He was more directing the question to Amanda. 

Amanda nodded folding her arms, "Amoco's boarding school should straighten her out!"

"BOARDING SCHOOL?!" both yelled in unison.

"I refuse" Videl snapped. "No way" Hercule snapped at the same time as Videl to Amanda.

"But honey I"

"Videl's MY daughter, not yours. No matter what Amanda. You cannot take charge as of yet. If Videl's not comfortable around you, the more time she spends here the better. And besides Gohan's mother would KILL me"

"* Not if I get to YOU first*…"  Amanda thought spitefully as she bit her thumb nail and gasped remembering it was just done.

Gathering her words and swallowed Videl said, "Father Amanda's just using you! Once she has the family title which enable her money and all those resorts and publicity did I mention the money? She'll destroy you, murder you then she'll get rid of me, Serenity and Tori on today of the full moon! That's what the pictures say father in saiyanjin of their moon and--"she paused startled at the pictures in which didn't have the symbols no longer.

"Videl what type of joke is this?" Amanda asked with a laugh.

Videl glared at her but gave her father a pleading glance, "Believe me…she's out to get us…"

He laughed his boastful laugh making Videl sigh deeply, "Oh Videl, what a humor! You must have gotten Amanda on this too! Lovely, haven't laugh like this in years!! And besides, I just signed some papers yesterday so the money's given to the orphanage and fan clubs if I die! If more than one if us dies it's given to the government! I'm a GENUIS!!"

Amanda gasped her eyes widen bewildered, "B-But"

Videl grinned giggling, "Oh daddy" then stuck her tongue out at Amanda like a child who got their way despite someone else's disagreement, "Better luck next time" Videl mouthed.

Videl grinned mentally; she'd ruin this wedding once and for all. She had a little surprise coming that would leave everyone dumbfounded.

"Ziss. Videl! Zhis Zohna fella Zas been waiting for Zou z Zeally Zong zime" Sophie squealed as her French accent came up slightly swirled due to her jumping up and down.

Videl laughed giving Amanda a satisfied smirk and walked out of the room with Hercule and Sophie.

Amanda's eyes glowed red and her hair flared up as she hissed her voice deepen into a male voice, "NO ONE is ruining my plans… No one princess…" and vanished in thin air.

CAPSULE COPRS. =

"You see… Videl's worried about her father… because he's-she said he's marrying the wrong woman… I don't know… but" Gohan stuttered fumbling with his fingers.

"Oh Gohan, she loves her mother and is faithful in not letting another woman take her place" Chichi smiled.

"But then again, this Amanda woman sounds like bad news" Bulma added.

"Videl said there's something weird about Amanda that she's NOT the average bimbo!" Gohan said.

"Hum… crazy. How so?" Bulma asked.

Gohan shrugged and gave Bulma and his mother a half smile, "Mostly about she said Amanda's a bogus gold digger! Videl didn't go into much details, she had to get ready for the wedding and---"

"Wedding…WEDDING! We have to get ready remember? It's 3:05 already?! Kami, Gohan get that brother of yours now"

"Get Trunks too, while I hog tie Vegeta? Thanks" Bulma raced off to the GR while Chichi paced frantically as she grabbed her things muttering about gifts and such.

"Mom… did you erm hear what I"

"Oh that purple dress won't do… that green one makes me look too thin… that orange doesn't go… on dear me" Chichi paced back and forth in a short distance.

"Erm uh…never mind" Gohan sighed exasperated as a sweat drop rolled down his skin.

15 MINS AT THE MANSION=

Videl groaned she was running out of time.

The wedding began in less than two hours.

She HAD to work faster.

Videl walked down to her father's room determined to get her way, at any means necessary even pulling her famous trick as a child.

HURCULE'S ROOM=

Hercule sighed guilty as Videl sobbed.

She looked through her hands smirking which but was hidden carefully as she succeeded.

It was a rotten trick but she had to do it.

She added some more sniffs, and shuddered some, boy she s glad her she and her mother signed up for drama and 'Lila's actress FYI' classes when she was four.

"Videl, your acting like a little child" Hercule stuttered for any moment he awaited to get a tongue lashing which Videl more inherited from her mother than him he remembered.

"Am not" she sniffed.

"Are too, not come on, your eyes and cheeks must be pink and puffy from that dang crying" he handed her a tissue.

"Meanie" she sniffed and lightly blew her nose, well pretended.

 "Videl, I think you should get yourself together! Amanda may not be your mother, heck no one could replace her for she's a unique and one of a kind…Videl I'm NOT marrying Amanda to replace your mother's place in my heart.. That's stupid … I just need some healing from someone my age…"

"Oh father… can't you wait at least a while longer…?"

"I'm sorry sweet---err Videl, my heart is dissolving from the lack of a partner… it's nothing to do with sexuality… it's just company… when you find that special person... You'll know just how I feel about your mother…and always shall even if I don't show it" he placed a hand firmly on her shoulder with a grin, "Besides, I have a feeling your mother is right before my eyes… you cannot get lonely of missing her Videl…" he turned her to the mirror fixing her hair for which having two daughters he learned from his wife and smiled, "For Videl, she lives within you…"

He touched her cheek and gave it a small peck and nodded.

Videl smiled warmly at her father, "*He really does care… I guess how he acts at times, is his way of mourning… he's sort of like… Uncle Vegeta…well… I did say 'sort of'*"

THIRTY MINUTES BEFORE THE WEDDING=

Videl stood outside of the fountain that had once given life when she felt her mother's presence.

Why did you have to go…?

Mother…

"…I feel your strength running through my veins…" she whispered.

The winds blew wildly as Videl's ebony hair followed waving back and forth before her ivory colored face.

She closed her eyes imagining her mother's warmth holding her as the cherry blossom leaves blew from their tress.

She DID feel warmth…

She gasped and turned to see Gohan holding her by the waist smiling down at her.

She leaned in and breathed in the soft scene of cologne most likely he placed it for her. This was her favorite type. It was so sophisticated and yet made her feel something she shouldn't… at least not yet. He wore that lovely blue suit she always begged him to wear on a fancy date to a French restaurant or something.

"We should go inside… your getting cold… besides I want to see you in your dress"

"I don't want to go… not yet" Videl whispered softly in his embrace.

"Please…" he said softly whispering lightly in her ears. She nodded softly against his chest.

WEDDING=

"… now do you… Amanda Saluki take Hercule Satan to be you're…"

Videl sat besides Gohan in a horrid mood. She promised herself over and over she'd wreck this marriage after the wedding. Right after everyone's gone she'd get that hussy!

Amanda gave Videl a smirk that said 'looks like I've won brat' but Videl gave one of her own smirk that replied 'for now hussy, for moments from now you shall be gone…'! In addition to folded her arms with a challenging risen eye brow. Oh man she had been hanging around her Uncle far too much when he and Bulma had disagreements.

Turning around she plastered her most praised bogus smiles she could muster under her anger boiling.

She began a chant within her mind then…

--YOU DARE defile ME?! The time is not right! Wait…--

Amanda stiffened hearing Princess Ice's voice through her head.

--Yes master—

Videl gave Gohan a secretive smile then winked at her Uncle receiving curious and confused faces she counted down softly, "3…2…1…"

An explosion accorded as the dust cleared from the organ player.

A shadow slumped upon the organ and the old woman playing screamed and ran a distance.

Videl grinned giving Vegeta thumbs up he smirked nodding his head.

The dust cleared and everyone gasped their eyes widening as the old woman placed hand over her chest, "Oh my, heaven sakes"

Chichi sniffed tears running down her ivory skin as she used a finger to brush one off.

"Goku San!" she called.

Goku laid on the organ sleeping and sucking his finger in the cutest fashion and twitched slightly murmuring about his love for fried chicken.

Everyone stood rooted to their spot as Chichi knew what to do.

"Goku, your dinners ready"

His head bobbed as the slightest drool upon his lips.

Chichi ran jumping and knocking people over as she hugged Goku tightly lifting him off the organ getting a raised brow from Piccolo and Vegeta.

"Huh? Chichi? What are you doing here? What are you all doing here? More importantly when's dinner…" he looked about at the decorations, "Chichi, I thought we are married…hum…did I die again?" he scratched his wild ebony hair.

Chichi burst into tears hugging him and buried her face into his chest, "Oh Goku"

He blinked and patted her back, "Hey, I can touch you… then that means…"

"You're alive Goku" Chichi sniffed looking up Goku grinned and wiped a tear from her eyes and kissed her softly upon the lips. The room filled with 'awws'

Goku felt a tugged on his pants leg and loosen his embrace upon Chichi to see Goten.

"Mister, why'd you have to make my momma cry?"

Goku smiled ruffling Goten's hair.

Chichi beamed, "Goten this is your father"

Goten gasped utterly flabbergasted, "My-my—but he's dead" 

Goku laughed, "Currently alive though", Goten smiled looking at the cheerful man and laughed himself.

"We better keep up to everyone" Goku suggested.

Everyone smiled at the reunion even Vegeta and Piccolo cracked a half smile but Amanda growled and glared gripping onto her bouquet of flowers dangerously almost making them burn.

"HEY, we're trying to get married here!" Amanda snapped drawing attention back to her and Hercule. She didn't care but she anted to be married to the idiot as soon as possible.

After the ceremony, the gang regrouped and talked about the good old days and the present with possible future. 

"So she's the luck lady" Goku grinned making Gohan blush and look down at the floor.

"Dad"

"And Krillian, you and eighteen! That's hilarious… but from man to man…" Goku leaned in "How do androids have babies…" Goku poked Krillian.

"They…hey! For your inform she's human now" Krillian pouted.

"Ohhh… that makes sense… yeah" Goku gave him a sheepish grin.

"Hey dad, they have some wonderful fried chicken and lasagna" Goten pulled out two cleaned chicken legs from his mouth and swallowed he meat.

"Get some please?" Goku practically begged and Goten nodded as Goku handed Goten 100 zeni.

"Hey, a dead guy can't really use zeni in Other World"

Goku joined Videl at a table where Gohan was getting her and himself some food.

Chichi was dragging Goten from the ceremony provisions stand.

"So how'd you become the city's protector?" Goku asked.

"Well, it was when I was four and some guy was attacking my father… I guess I was scared because I grabbed the man's pants leg! He then turned and that's when I jumped to his level with a round the house kick knocking him out into a three month coma" Videl sipped her latté, "It scared me at first, because some people thought I was strange but soon they adjusted and the police gave me a communicator when I was ten and ever since"

Gohan soon returned with several food and cocktail delicacies and what surprised Goku was the amount for Videl.

"Erm, not to be rude… can she eat all that?" Goku asked.

"Yeah, I'm saiyan after all" Videl grinned.

"You know the Krillian and Eighteen thing was crazy, her as a saiyan and--"

"Grandpa, Grandpa" Damien and Pan chimed jumping into his lap each taking a side.

Goku looked confused, "Huh?"

"My name's Pan and--"

"My name's Damien"

"And where your grandkids" they chimed. [1]

"I think I need to lie down with a long chicken leg" Goku said.

"Your funny, like Grandmamma always says" Pan said.

"Uhm, let me guess, your kids?" Goku asked.

"Well, technically yes, but from the future! Hi, there Goku" M. Trunks patted him on the shoulder, "Long time no see? Didn't know you where dead until I came here!"

"M Trunks… and they're from…Eighteen and Krillian… she's a saiyan--"

"And Vegeta's niece too" Bulma added.

"What the heck's the matter with you people? I'm gonna have a migraine" Goku moaned.

"Oh my poor, poor Goku" Chichi carried a ten layered cake in her hands, "Well a little cake help?"

"It could be a start" a hand took a small piece out then swallowed the cake whole.

"Uhm… is that safe…?" Krillian asked.

"Well we sure know that's not normal" a male voice snickered.

"Tein, Launch?" Mai asked.

"The one and only" Launch chimed.

A little girl with blonde hair and blue eyes poked her head from behind Lime's skirt.

"This is our daughter…" Tein introduced but Goten interrupted.

"Hi, there! My name's Goten! What's yours?"

"Teuach" she whispered softly her pink dress and white lace matched the color of her pinked cheeks.

Goten poked his head behind Launch to see her, "I like it, that's a nice dress! Wanna see me swallow ten chickens while singing the alphabet upside down?"

She nodded with a giggle as she gave him her hand they trotted off.

"That's something I gotta see"

"I'll be in my room" Goku sniffed taking the cake piece with a grin.

Seconds later he emerged with little bits of cake smudged on.

"Is chocolate made outta from—"

"No" Chichi replied.

"Did you wonder how it gets so brown--?"

"Goku"

"Ever wonder why sometimes jelly is like that--"

"GOKU" They yelled.

"The squishing… the brownish… the tastiness… the sugariness"

"I should have married chocolate! I should have listened to my stomach…the cruel world we live in!" Goku wailed.

THAT NIGHT=

"Yes… my place is rising… by this time tomorrow I shall rule Planet Earth… then the universe" Princess Ice cackled as her huge space ship zoomed by with Earth as it's' target.

THAT NIGHT ON EARTH=

Amanda drew the potion and held it above Hercule chuckling darkly as it went into his lungs.

The fool.

The lights fluttered on as Videl gasped.

"Too late prissy princess" a male voice chuckled darkly.

"Who are you?" Videl asked suspiciously.  

Amanda threw her arms into the air, thunder clashing outside as her ki sky rocked and her dress ripped showing muscular male legs in white pants and shirt.  Her blonde hair whorled about turning to ear long lilac hair. Looking down now at her at the door frame his ebony eyes glittered mischievously as well as a smirk. Before she knew it he pinned her to the floor gagging her and strangling her violently.

"Elk…uhmm…Gah-JOHAN!" she managed to yell, she would have preferred to say 'Gohan' but it wasn't the time to be picking.

She couldn't concentrate as much to draw even the smallest ki blast instead she quickly spiked up her ki signally danger.

Within seconds she felt their ki's nearing the door and it seemed that her attacker couldn't sense ki or didn't care.

 Finally the door was blasted off, with Goku, Gohan, the chibis', everyone all her families and friends.

Goku got hold of her attacker and Gohan helped Videl up coaxing her into less of a panic and the tension rose as Goku almost had to kill the guy for his frantic squirming.

"Who are you?" Mai asked.

"Why don't you answer …Amanda?" Videl spat angrily.

"Wow, you dad married a guy? I heard of bogus skin and breast but a whole person, freaking! Now this is a question, dose he have half-half! Nothing personal, just asking… I was looking in the paper in Other World and---"

"GOKU, the guy" Bulma snapped receiving a glare then hands upon the hips from Chichi with an expectable and affirmative nod.

Goku blushed slightly and chuckled sheepishly.

"Ok, freak… answer this one simple question, and we can all go home" Vegeta said tossing his hand minimally with a sigh and no interest them several nerves bulged up, "What the HECK are you doing in this house? For that matter, what the heck are you doing near royalty? This solar system? Furthermore me?"

"Vegeta, that was… Uhm…2…3…" Goku said, "This many" Goku showed eight fingers.

"Goku that's eight fingers" Yamcha said.

He took one down.

"Seven" Bulma replied.

He took another down.

"Six" Krillian said.

Another.

"Five" Marron answered.

Another.

"Perfect" Vegeta rolled his eyes.

Goku switched back and forth swiftly then Vegeta grew wary of the attacker instead of 'Kakorat's affairs'  

"There" they yelled as Goku held up four fingers.

He blinked, "That's what I said before...gosh, I don't really see a difference… I just like eight!" he grinned sheepishly and stuck out his tongue embarrassed.  

They groaned and fell over while the chibis' sweat dropped.

"Hey, where do you think your going?" Chichi snapped noticing the attacker was escaping through the window.

"Forget that little woman"

"Little woman? I have you know, I raised TWO saiyans without a help, without as money we have now! We had to strive for years… with my dear, dear Goku dead, and my dear, dear, dear boys growing up with a father… it can be hard upon us! Oh, the nights I wail un-assured by Goku!" she wiped her tears with the tissue Bulma handed her sweat dropping and blushing crimson. Chichi's eyes sparkled and clasped her hands together, "Oh but I knew my Goku would return to me one day, and that day had arrived! It was so magical" she twirled around then glared at him clenching hr fist at the attacker, "but YOU, you had to go and ruin the whole damn thing! What nerves! What a manner less man you are! How dare you! I should put you over my knees and give your ass a couple of spankings I have just quit enough of you attitude" she grabbed him by the ears and the attacker squirmed in pain, "Now I shall teach you manners, you shall scrub down every house Mr. Satan owns, and his mansion every day! Do you understand furthermore--?"

Goten grinned ear to ear and Gohan hung his head blushing, "That's our mom"

"Thank Kami; none of us did such a bad thing! I mean blowing up the house a few times, even a huge crater in the living room, and covering it up with the refrigerators! The hole was still hot the fridge exploded and we had a private funeral for it! Man, chichi had me scrubbing Bulma's house with her supervision for weeks! But I got lovely breaks if you get my drift and---"

Erupting with rage the attacker blasted from Chichi smirking, "You do not know who you're messing with! The weak shall die and the strong shall survive! Suckers, until we meet again" he then vanished with white puffs.

"That…was interesting…" Krillian blinked.

"Erm, don't forget major weird" Erasa blinked.

"Hi, I don't remember you" Goku pointed.

Erasa smiled, "I'm Gohan and Videl's friend from high school! So is Angela--"

Angela was looking on the bureau mirror at her make up.

"—and Sharpener who was---"

He was flirting none stop with Launch who then sneezed and Sharpener ended up with a concussion.  

Videl looked up into the sky, "*what in the world is going on here huh?*"

SOMEWHERE FAR AWAY=

"Aren't you going?" King Kai entered his Other World house.

The female shadow shook her head no.

"I must protect the universe…and her" the female spoke rigidly.

"Videl's powers are decreasing now…your doing?" he asked an edge coming into his voice.

"One day she shall know of her destiny… one day…to give her dangerous  powers as we had planned for the battle" she hung her head with a heavy sigh, "…no…it would be so cruel as it was when she was a child… it was far out of control! It was just too much for the dear child!"

"When shall she learn of you?" King Kai asked, "Do you have no heart? Has it been frozen over?"

The woman cringed and stiffened with a sniff denial as she shook her head.

"She should know of your heart…" King Kai added.

"Oh, but I do have a heart King Kai…and it is breaking…" she whispered.

"Has it been darken by the darkness that had been around you?" King Kai asked.

"It is not…it is as warm as ever…leave me alone…"

"She needs you… she needs her mother… a real mother… it tis' time… warm your heart"

She said nothing but sniffed several times.

King Kai's eyes swarmed and a smile appeared he said softly with sincerity, "...Ah child, you do love her don't you…? You love her more than you let on …"

She shook her head, "No King Kai… I love her more than you could ever imagine" she whispered as a sparkling tear hit the floor.
