A book I read said that writer's block is no real excuse to not write. It
said that there is no such thing as writers block, we just have to try to
write. Therefore, my excuse is, I'm a lazy little bugger who has no ideas.
Anyway, enjoy the new chapter!
Videl: Hi again.
Gohan: You're still here!?!
Katt: Congrats on stating the obvious.
Videl: You didn't think I wouldn't leave without seeing the end did you?
Gohan: I guess not.
Katt: Thanks for this fic go to: Shea Loner Smoothtalker SetoKaiba Tiki111 Gimegohan Dragon Ball Z Freak and Vegeta, 'cause they reviewed the latest chapter. I have ideas from Gimegohan and Dragon Ball Z Freak this time!
Videl: Aren't you forgetting something?
Katt: I'll let you do it this time.
Videl: Thanks. Any lawyers want a piece of me? I thought not! Now don't accuse Katt of plagiarism cause she don't own and we all know that!
Katt: A bit harsh but it'll do.
Videl: I won't just hit lawyers you know.
Katt: HELP!! *Runs off screaming*

Last time:
Providence recovered from her shock and told the class to get back on the busses. No one could revive Gohan, so Trunks decided to carry him, promising Bulma and Pan that he would be back as soon as he was in bed.
After they got back, everyone went to bed, but Videl couldn't sleep. She lay awake all night for fear of what tomorrow was going to bring.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ *~*~*
Chapter 5: Who The HFIL is Pan?!?
'I can't believe you got us knocked out you baka!'
'How would you feel if you fund out you had a daughter from the future?'
(In case you haven't guessed, this is Gohan and SS arguing.)
'Hello? I do! I'm you remember!'
'Oh yeah. But we weren't knocked out. I fainted.'
'You're weak. You know Gohan, I just realised something.'
'What?'
'I have no tail.'
'Oh no! You're not going to.'
'Oh yes I am!!!' *evil laughter*
"ARGH!!!" screamed Gohan, waking up from severe pain.
He looked behind him and sure enough, there was a furry brown tail. He gulped and began to take in his surroundings. He was lying in the hospital tent. There were 5 figures above him. On closer inspection these were Videl, Katt, Erasa, Jade and..... Chi-chi!!! Bulma and the other sayans (Vegeta, Goten, Pan, M Trunks, and Trunks.) Well this day just keeps getting better and better. But before he got a chance to react, SS took over.
"GOHAN!!! YOU'RE AWAKE!!!" screamed Chi-chi.
"Argh, be quiet!" SS groaned, holding his ears.
"GOHAN!! MY LITTLE BABY!! I THOUGHT YOU'D NEVER WAKE UP!!" Chi-chi yelled, completely ignoring SS
"SHUT UP BAKA WOMAN!!" SS yelled loudly.
Chi-chi began to turn red. Steam was literally coming out of her ears! All the sayans, plus Bulma, winced and stepped back slightly. They new what a mad Chi-chi could do! The four unacquainted girls watched in fascination. Chi-chi walked up to SS slowly.
*BANG* came the sound of metal hitting a sayan head. Gohan resurfaced and started rubbing his head.
"Ow!! That hurt!" he wined. Videl stared in horror.
"Um Mrs. Son? Why'd you just hit Gohan with a waffle iron?" She asked. (Ha, ha! You thought it was the Frying Pan of Doom!)
"My frying pan went missing. I think Goten and Trunks had something to do with it." Goten and Trunks gulped while Chi-chi rubbed her new Waffle Iron of Terror. Gohan got out of bed and ran over to M Trunks.
"Ok, tell me this, WHO THE HFIL IS PAN!?"
"Um, your daughter from the future."
"You never mentioned a daughter last time you came!"
"You were eleven years old then! What was I supposed to do?"
Gohan groaned and stalked off. "I'll be in my tent if you want to torture me more." He called over his shoulder. Only Vegeta noticed the fuzzy brown belt around his waist.
~*~
As soon as Gohan left, Videl charged up to M Trunks and pulled him away from the group. When she had him out of ear-shot she rounded on him
"Ok, so who is this Pan?"
"Gohan's daughter."
"And her mother?" She had fire in her eyes.
"Umm, well."
"Talk. I know she looks a lot like me."
"UM.. she's.. your sisters."
"My sister? You don't expect me to buy that do you? I have no sister!"
"You have to understand, I come from a different time-line. In this time the Androids ruled and there were no cell games. In this time-line, you have a sister."
Videl's expression softened. She sighed with relief. Not that she hated Pan, but the idea of a daughter was too much to handle. MT (M trunks was too hard to write) smiled, glad that Videl had believed his lie.
Videl decided that more needed to be known about these sayans. The answer? Talk to Lime! But first she had to get this day over with.
~*~
When the situation with the new comers was sorted out, Providence began her daily talk of the day's events. Just to let you know, Chi-chi, Bulma and the sayans (bar Gohan) are staying behind. Chi-chi just HAD to make wedding plans with Bulma and Vegeta wanted a sparring session with the older version of his son.
"Um, due to certain, um, complications we'll be doing things slightly differently today. We've decided to do things slightly differently today. First we'll be doing some white water rafting and next we'll collect firewood and play trust games. Everyone like that idea?"
Gohan gave a sigh of relief. There was no way a member of the z-senshi was here. None of them did white water rafting and there weren't supposed to do trust games with people out of the camp. Things were looking up for a change. But then again Dende..
*~*I'm shnot going to do anyshing Gofan! I've had *hic* enough for one fic. Or maybe.*~* an idea began to make itself apparent in Dende's head. (Translation: I'm not going to do anything Gohan. I've had enough for one fic.)
'Um Dende? When you laugh evilly you're not supposed to let me hear telepathically' Gohan said telepathically.
'Oh shorry Gofan. *Evil laughter*' (Translation: Oh sorry Gohan.)
'You did it again.'
'Oh sho I did. I fink I'll go.Play cheff with Picclo! Yeah that's it! See ya later!' (Translation: Oh so I did. I think I'll go play chess with piccolo.)
'That guy just gets weirder and weirder.'
"Hey Gohan are you ok? You just zoned for a second." Katt said poking him.
"Yeah I'm fine. What were you saying?"
"We have to go now. Providence is waiting."
"Oh yeah."
Gohan gather up his things, (Towel and such ya know? In case he got wet.), and followed the group to the river. It had rained the night before, so the water level was pretty high. It was also very fast. Blocked by rocks and such, it was foaming and moving very quickly.
The group grabbed their rafts and began to get strapped in. (Their PFD's ok? You need one to go rafting.) It was one of those times where Hercule was there with them. If you're wondering, he's running the rafting section.
"Ok campers! I want you all to get into groups of 3. Hurry up now!"
Jade went in a group with Apollo and Venus, to discuss things. Sharpener went with Erasa and Lime, which left Gohan, Videl and Katt. (Yes, there is a reason for this.) When groups were sorted everyone began to get in to the rafts and push off in the water.
~*~
At the end of the river, there was some calm, deep water. Videl saw this as a perfect opportunity to.I wonder! Interrogate Gohan!
"So Gohan, if that is your name, what exactly is a sayan side and why do you have one?"
"Um, it's kind of hard to explain."
"I have an open mind."
"Well a sayan side is kinda like the evil part of me."
"Ah ha. So you're a schizo?"
"A what? No! No way!"
"It sure sounds like it."
Gohan's eyes flashed. "If you know what's good for you, you'll take that back!"
"What's good for me? What are you going to do?"
SS began to tense. Anger was all too evident on his face. "Um Gohan? Are you ok?" Katt asked nervously. SS looked at her and relaxed. His anger was replaced with a Vegeta like smirk.
"You know what I'm going to do?" He asked evilly. Katt inched backwards. "This!" He yelled, grabbing Videl and throwing her out of the boat. Videl screamed as she plummeted into the water. SS looked over at her, close to laughing.
"You horrible bastard! How dare you!" Videl yelled at him.
"YOU were the one doing the daring."
"The nerve of you! Katt, why aren't you sticking up for me?"
"Katt, why aren't you sticking up for me?" Gohan mocked.
Videl screamed again. SS just laughed and offered a hand. She took it, pulling SS into the water. Gohan resurfaced and he splashed her in the face. She wiped her face but it was immediately wet again when Katt did a bomby into the water. (Or cannon ball for you American folk) It wasn't long before everyone was in the water, splashing around and having a good time.
Hercule watched them all having fun and decided to join them. He HAD to keep up camp spirit after all! He stripped down into navy-blue swimming trunks and dived in. He pushed his head out of the water and started laughing. Everyone just stared at him. Jade, Apollo and Venus looked like they were about to burst into fits of laughter. Which they did, of course.
"What? What is it?"
He looked himself all over. His swimming trunks had turned into a sort of pink-orange swirl. Such lovely bright colours! He started screaming, only causing Jade, Venus and Apollo to laugh louder.
"You had something to do with this?" Gohan asked the trio.
"Yeah, we replaced his trunks for some that were non-colourfast. Cool hey?"
"I thought we were getting Krillin next."
"We would've but you were knocked out and we couldn't without you."
"Katt, did you join in this?" He questioned.
"No, I was."
"Where?"
"I fell asleep early." She blurted out. Videl looked at her strangely but chose to ignore it. But what Katt noticed was the look of utter hatred on Videl's face, aimed at Gohan. On a completely unrelated note: they all continued swimming until lunch.
~*~
During lunch, Katt began to act strangely. Even for her. She searched around everywhere for Jad, and when she'd found him she poked her finger in the air and twirled it. He shook his head and made some signs with his hands. She groaned and tapped her head with her hand. Once again he shook his head.
Then they both began making different hand signs. Katt would make them, then Jad, then Katt again. Until finally Jad nodded. Katt tapped her chin, and then pointed at him. He poked his tongue and walked off.
"What was that all about?" Gohan asked.
"Oh nothing!" Katt answered, almost too happily. She looked at Jade. "Isn't that right Jade?"
Jade had been watching every hand symbol made. "You know, I don't know that much. I could barely understand you! Other then the alphabet."
"Good, cause I don't want you to." Jade looked hurt. This was the first time Katt hadn't told her something. "Sorry Jade, but this is kinda private."
"Fine, I won't pry." She said, but she still looked slightly hurt.
They all decided to sit down and eat lunch. (If any of you didn't guess, they were using sign language.)
"I didn't know you could sign!" Venus said to Katt.
"My parents taught me." Katt replied.
"That's funny 'cause my little sister is deaf. I know sign language as well." Katt's face turned white.
"You mean, you understood that?"
"Every word. Except for you twirling your finger and tapping your head."
"Oh, those were just our family signs for 'Hurry up' and 'Get here now!'" She said laughing.
"Ah I see. Well you can't keep it from me any longer."
"Did Apollo see?"
"No he didn't. You're very lucky."
"Tell me about it!"
~*~
The firewood collecting was hard work. For everyone except Gohan that is. He didn't exactly carry a lot, just about as much as Sharpener, but while Sharpener was puffed out Gohan was walking with ease. Not that anyone found this surprising. They were too busy wondering when this time would end!
Sure enough, collecting firewood time DID end and everyone sat in a circle, ready to play trust games. You know the type. After they had done the 'navigating around obstacles while your partner is wearing a blindfold' and the 'get in a circle, join hands and untangle yourself' games Providence announced that they would be getting into pairs.
Videl, of course, went with Gohan.
"Ok, now I want one of you to close you eyes. Good just like that. Now fall back into your partner's arms. Don't worry, they'll catch you." Videl closed her eyes and began to fall back. In only a few seconds she felt strong arms on her shoulders.
Her eyes opened and stared into Gohan's. (Lets all shout, 1.2.3 SAP!!!) They stared at each other for a while, and then Gohan's tail began to slowly snake itself around Videl's waist. She noticed something around her waist and started screaming.
"Argh! What was that?" In that split second Gohan's tail was once more a belt.
"I dunno, what was what?"
"There was something around my waist! Like a snake or something!"
"Maybe it was just your imagination?" Gohan asked hopefully.
"No, it was definitely there!"
"Um, hey look lets go play some more trust games!" He gave the old Son Grin and hoped she would ignore the 'belt' around his waist. She did, and they went to play games with the rest of the group.
~*~
That night at dinner, when everyone was sitting around the campfire, Videl noticed Gohan sitting over with Katt. It was a shock to her, but suddenly Gohan didn't seem all that bad. Maybe it was the fire, or maybe it was today's struggles that did it. Or maybe a certain Kami had decided to interfere with a certain girl's emotions!
*~*KAMI's LOOKOUT*~* "What do you mean? I didn't make Videl fall hopelessly in love with Gohan but not realise it until it's too late! Damn, I've said too much! Um, just get back to the story ok?" *~*Back on earth*~*
Whatever the reason (we all know the reason) Gohan looked surprisingly hot at the moment! The jealousy that swept over her as Katt snuggled deeper into his chest was unbearable! She had to break them up!
"Hey Gohan!" she yelled, "Get here now or there'll be HFIL to pay!"
"Oh, sorry Kitty." he said to the girl next to him. "Coming Videl!" he yelled across the fire.
He got up and walked over to her, groaning inwardly about the lecture he was sure he was going to get.
"Um, yeah, what's up?"
"You know very well 'what's up' Son Gohan! I want answers!"
"What was the question again?"
"WHAT THE HFIL IS A SAYAN SIDE!?!"
"Well, it's um.It's evil me. Sort of. I mean, hmmm. How do I explain?"
"Bulma said sayans were a warrior race. If so, why do you have a sayan side?"
"Well, Bulma always said I was like two people. She said when I get angry I act like a sayan. That's basically what a sayan side is. Me when I'm really ticked off." He REALLY hoped she'd fall for his lie. His hopes didn't become reality.
"Ah ha. And you expect me to, what? Believe that? You must be joking!"
"I am not!"
"Really? By the way, great belt! Looks almost like a tail!"
"Oh um.How weird is that?" He desperately needed assistance. But there was no Katt to bail him out.
He did have an idea though. He didn't know why he did what he did, but the world was moving in a strange orbit that day. He let SS take over. His eyes flashed turquoise as he leaned seductively over Videl.
"I'm not going to answer your question tonight, dear girl. I'm going to make you suffer at the thought of not knowing." He smirked at her and went to sit by Katt who, once again, curled herself into Gohan's chest.

"Fine, I won't pry." She said, but she still looked slightly hurt.

Whatever the reason (we all know the reason) Gohan looked surprisingly hot at the moment! The jealousy that swept over her as Katt snuggled deeper into his chest was unbearable! She had to break them up!
"Hey Gohan!" she yelled, "Get here now or there'll be HFIL to pay!"
"Oh, sorry Kitty." he said to the girl next to him. "Coming Videl!" he yelled across the fire.
He got up and walked over to her, groaning inwardly about the lecture he was sure he was going to get.
"Um, yeah, what's up?"
"You know very well 'what's up' Son Gohan! I want answers!"
"What was the question again?"
"WHAT THE HFIL IS A SAYAN SIDE!?!"
"Well, it's um.It's evil me. Sort of. I mean, hmmm. How do I explain?"
"Bulma said sayans were a warrior race. If so, why do you have a sayan side?"
"Well, Bulma always said I was like two people. She said when I get angry I act like a sayan. That's basically what a sayan side is. Me when I'm really ticked off." He REALLY hoped she'd fall for his lie. His hopes didn't become reality.
"Ah ha. And you expect me to, what? Believe that? You must be joking!"
"I am not!"
"Really? By the way, great belt! Looks almost like a tail!"
"Oh um.How weird is that?" He desperately needed assistance. But there was no Katt to bail him out.
He did have an idea though. He didn't know why he did what he did, but the world was moving in a strange orbit that day. He let SS take over. His eyes flashed turquoise as he leaned seductively over Videl.
"I'm not going to answer your question tonight, dear girl. I'm going to make you suffer at the thought of not knowing." He smirked at her and went to sit by Katt who, once again, curled herself into Gohan's chest.
