Halloween Should Be Fun

A week passed since Mirai arrived. Gohan and Videl were by each other's side every chance they got. Marron was getting closer with Videl. Goten was just living life like normal. Everyone was happy for a change.
It was Sunday before Halloween. Videl was preparing to leave with Marron to go costume shopping. Gohan really didn't want her to go. With school, home work, and flying lessons they hadn't had all that much time to spend together unless it was getting ready for bed. Not that he minded that, he just wanted more time than that.
"Why don't you wait to go tomorrow after school or something?" Gohan asked
Videl just shook her head "I can't. I would have to come all the way back here for Marron then fly all the way back. Plus I have a doctor's appointment today, so I thought it would be the perfect time to go shopping. So I have to go no matter what."
"Can't I come with you then? We don't really have enough time alone and I thought it would be nice to spend the day together. What do you say?" Gohan pleaded
Videl turned to him with a stern look "No! Our costumes are going to be a surprise. You will not see them until the party, besides you would be bored at the doctor's." Videl walked over and gave Gohan a hug.
"I guess your right. Why do you have to go to the doctor's anyway?" he asked
"Nothing special, just a routine physical. I have to have one twice a year since I work with the police. All they do is check my general health and do a blood test.'
Gohan just raised an eyebrow at Videl's last statement. "Blood test?"
"Just to make sure I'm not doing drugs and other things." She rolled her eyes at her boyfriend's naiveté. "Oh, OK" was Gohan's only response. "Well my appointment is in an hour. I am already pushing it so we better head out. Come on Marron we have to go!" Videl called into the house. Marron came running out as fast as she could. She stopped just short of running into Gohan.
"I'm ready. Where we going anyway?" Marron asked.
Videl just ruffed the little girl's hair. She still couldn't believe how cute Marron was. "We are going costume shopping today. First we have to meet up with a friend. You are going to spend a little time with her while I'm at the doctor's. Then we will go shopping and have a little lunch. OK?"
Marron just nodded her head not saying a word. Marron jumped up into Gohan's arms and hugged him. Gohan returned the hug and gave her a kiss on the cheek "Have fun you two" he said as he handed Marron over to Videl. Gohan and Videl briefly kissed before the two girls got in the jet copter. Videl soon took off going at top speed not wanting to be any later than she already was.
Gohan waved goodbye until the jet copter was out of view. "Goten, are you ready?"
"Ready for what?" Goten asked jumping out of a tree near by.
"We have to head over to Master Roshi's to get your costume. Hopefully Krillin hasn't thrown it out." Gohan responded and jumped into the air. "Hurry up we have to be back before Videl gets back." Goten didn't wait around and followed suit. They were flaying as fast as possible towards the little island.
Videl was speeding over the landscape not wasting any time. Marron just looked at the blurred scenery as the passed over it.
"Wow we are almost flying as fast as mommy and daddy!" Marron said surprised. Videl wasn't paying attention though. She really wanted to get there and have this physical done and over with. She loved working with the police, but she hated having to do this twice a year. Everything would be fine until the brought out the needles to take blood and then all hell would brake loose. They were flying over the city limits and towards the center of town.
Marron pointed to a large tower in the center. "What is that Videl?" she asked
"That is where my friend lives. Her apartment is on the top floor." Videl said smiling at her. With a quick coarse change they were headed for the building in question. Upon landing on the roof they were greeted by ever bubbly blonde Erasa.
"Videl you're here!! Wow who is this little cutie?" Erasa asked going up to pinch Marron's cheeks. Marron just ducked behind Videl afraid of this person who was unlike anyone she had ever met.
"Erasa, I would like you to meet Marron. She is a friend of Gohan's. Come on Marron this is Erasa. She is one of my oldest friends, she won't bite you." Videl stepped aside to reveal the cowering girl and nudged her forward. Marron just inched up to Erasa. She had never met anyone this happy before. Her mommy and daddy were never like this and certainly not any one of their friends.
When Marron was with in reaching distance Erasa just grabbed her up. "Oh don't worry little one. We will have fun, I have all kinds of dollies to play with." When the word dollies came out of Erasa's mouth Marron's mood changed. She was now smiling at the new girl and couldn't wait to play.
"OK guys, I have to go now. I'm already late to the doctor's. Will you be OK Marron?" Videl asked. Marron just looked back at her and nodded. Of coarse she would be alright, this person holding her had dollies and that was all she needed to be OK.
"OK, I will see you guys in a little bit. Have fun." Videl got back in her copter and left with out another word. Marron and Erasa just looked at each other and smiled. They soon walked over to the door and down to Erasa's apartment.
~Two Hours Later~
Videl was walking down from the roof to Erasa's apartment. She was rubbing her arm thankful that it was all over. She felt like they had taken a whole pint of blood this time. 'Maybe they thought I was donating it instead of having a drug test' she mused to herself. Videl reached the door and knocked a few times. It took a few minutes for some one to answer the door. When the door opened Videl fell to the ground laughing. There stood Erasa covered in feathers from head to toe. "What happened to you?" Videl asked between breaths.
Erasa just stood there smiling "Pillow fight" she answered simply. Videl got back to her feet still laughing. Erasa stepped to the side allowing entry into the apartment. When she entered she was horrified. The whole room looked like a battlefield. Furniture was turned over, glass was broken and feathers all over the place.
"What happened here?" Videl asked
"We got bored so we decided to have some fun." Erasa answered.
"Well I had better get Marron and be on our way. We have to get costumes for this party Friday. Where is Marron by the way?" Videl said looking around.
"Oh, sis and her got it a little worse than I did, so I sent them in for a bath. They should be out in a few minutes."
"OK, I will go see if they are ready. We can't be late getting home or Chi- Chi will be furious." Erasa just stood confused for a minute. "Who is Chi- Chi a new maid or something? I've never met her before."
Videl just slapped her forehead at this. She had forgotten that Erasa didn't know hat she was staying at Gohan's. "Actually Erasa, Chi-Chi is Gohan's mom. I have to have Marron back by dinner or she will kill me." Videl sighed in relief thinking that she came up with a good lie. Erasa just smiled back at her. She knew she was staying at Gohan's. After all you can only be so many places when you come over to visit for over a week. She figured it was Gohan's, because they showed up together for school all the time. She also knew they were an item by the way they acted around each other in school and the way they walked every where hand in hand. They thought no one noticed, but Erasa wasn't all that oblivious to the world around her. Being the good friend that she is just let them think that. They would tell her when they were ready.
Moments later Marron came out into the living room all clean and ready to go. Videl saw her and opened up her arms waiting for Marron to jump into them. Marron took the invitation and jumped up. "You ready to go kiddo?" Videl asked. Marron nodded happily.
"OK, let's go. Thanks Erasa for watching her."
"No problem. She is welcome here anytime. Marron is just too cute and I wouldn't mind having her again."
"OK, we better go now. We want to get the best costumes for the party don't we?" Videl asked Marron. Marron just nodded again. (Marron is not a person of many words ^_^) Videl then walked out of the room. "Bye!! See you at the party Marron." Erasa called out. Marron waved goodbye over Videl's shoulder as they walked towards the steps. Erasa closed her door and turned around. For the first time she realized what a mess they made in their "Fun" and screamed.
Videl had buckled Marron in to her seat "You ready to go?" "Yup" was Marron's only response. They took off towards West City as fast as the contraption could carry them. West City had the best shopping malls. It was attributed to having Capsule Corp. in the same city. They all had a better selection than Satan City malls and when ever Videl had to shop she went there just for the satisfaction of having more choices.
When they arrived they found that a lot of shops were ready for the holiday. All of the stores were packed with candy and costumes. After several hours of shopping Videl still hadn't found a suitable costume that matched Marron's in any way. Videl decided it was time for lunch then after that she would try one more shop before headed home.
For lunch Videl bought an extra large pizza with everything for herself and a happy meal for Marron. While they were eating Marron was giggling left and right. "What's so funny?" Videl asked while eating her sixth slice.
"You're eating like Auntie Bulma" Marron giggled. Videl looked confused "What do you mean?"
"Auntie Bulma eats like that too. She says she is eating for two now and needs all the food she can get." Videl just looked at the girl like she was crazy. She was just hungry that's all. When ever the doctor took blood she was a little bit more hungry than usual that's all. Videl looked back down to her pizza and started eating not giving it another thought while Marron giggled away like she was mad.
Soon after they were done, Marron and Videl were walking around the mall again. To the passer by it would appear that they were just wondering aimlessly. In a sense that was true. Videl just could not find a costume to suit her. Everything she saw was just to gaudy. Most of everything she saw when she went into the adult sections were erotic in nature and would not be appropriate for school. A lot of Sailor and school girl outfits.
Just about to give up, Videl turned to see that Marron was no longer with her. Frightened, she started to look all around. After about a minute she spotted Marron standing in front of a mannequin staring up at it. Videl rushed over to her and picked her up and hugged her tight. "Marron I have been searching all over for you. I thought some weirdo ran off with you. Are you OK?" Videl frantically asked.
Marron just looked at the face Videl was making and wanted to cry "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to scare you." Marron's eyes started swelling with tears. Videl just hugged her tighter "Its OK, I was just worried. Don't run off like that again, OK?"
"OK" was all Marron could get out before she started to cry. "What do you say we head home now? I don't think I am going to find a costume today any way. I will have to come looking later." Videl stated. Marron just looked up "Yeah"
They started walking out of the shop when Marron stopped Videl. "What about that one?" Marron said pointing to the mannequin she was looking at earlier. Videl just looked at it for a few minutes trying to decide. The costume didn't look to bad, it was very girly though. After comparing it to what else she came across there was only one choice. "OK, but you can't tell Gohan or Goten about this." Videl said to Marron. After making her swear to not tell them she purchased the costume.
After packing everything up in the jet copter they were off towards Satan City to leave the costumes at Videl's house. With Videl staying at Gohan's until her father returned the house was deserted. Videl had given the house staff the time off with pay until he got back. Marron marveled at the size of the house. You could fit a million of her houses in the mansion (Marron is only six so one million is the largest number she knows with out actually doing the math) "Wow, this is a big house." Marron said with an astonished tone. Videl just looked out of the closet she was stuffing with there costumes "Yeah, it is too big for me though. I don't like it much." As Videl returned to her packing Marron looked around the hall. It had paintings of that man that her daddy didn't like. There were also statues of the man. Marron just made faces at everything with Mr. Satan's face on them.
After everything was hidden away, Videl and Marron left for home. They talked about how pretty Marron would be in her costume. Time flew and they were soon walking in the door of the Son house. Chi-Chi greeted them and told them that dinner would be in a few minutes. At the mention of food Videl was delighted. She went up to Gohan's room searching for him. She found him sitting at his desk reading a book. Feeling a little devious at the moment Videl turned around and walked back down the steps to talk with Chi-Chi. 'This is going to be so great!' Videl thought to herself as she entered the kitchen.
"Ready?' Chi-Chi asked. Videl nodded in agreement. She stood on a stepping stool with a frying pan in her hand. "DINNER'S READY!!!!" Chi-Chi yelled. Videl counted to her self "3, 2, 1" She held up the frying pan to where Gohan's head would be. Gohan came running into the kitchen and right through the pan. Videl on the other hand just spun around and fell to the floor. "My Gohan were you hungry?" Videl asked getting up from the floor. Gohan just looked at her with a puzzled look "Why?"
"Never mind" Videl sighed. Dinner was served and every one was starring at Videl. She was eating a lot more than usual, but they didn't say anything.
As the rest of the week passed Videl and Gohan were talked into setting up for the party.
It was now Thursday and school was about to let out. Gohan was beating his head on the desk. Their teacher was prattling on about safety during trick or treating. It was important, but he had been stuck on the same sentence for almost five minutes straight. He couldn't take it anymore and thankfully he didn't have to. The bell rang just as he was about to shout for no other reason than to shut the teacher up.
As the students filed out of the class Gohan was stopped by Videl grabbing his hand. "Hey Gohan can we talk for a second?" Videl asked. "Sure we can talk any time you want." He responded.
"Well it's about tomorrow. I was thinking that Marron and I should stay at my house tonight and meet you here. That way our costumes will be a surprise." Videl said nervously. "It's no problem I wanted Goten's and my costume to be a surprise too." Gohan said.
"OK then I am going to stop by and pick up Marron then we will see you tomorrow."
"OK let's go. I'll race ya" Gohan challenged.
"Fine" Videl sighed. She knew that she couldn't keep up with Gohan no matter how hard she tried right now.
They walked up to the roof and started getting ready to take. They both crouched down into a starter position. Videl sounded off "Ready.Set.." She didn't wait for go and took off going as fast as she could. As she got a little ways away she could hear Gohan yelling his disapproval. "Go!!!" she yelled back laughing. Gohan wasn't mad at her antics he was going to let her win any way. He took off after her making sure not to get too close and let her think she was winning.
The race ended with Gohan using a little more power at the very end to win. Videl was mad at him for it. She thought that she had finally beaten him at a race. Even though she did cheat a little she should have won that. Gohan was just playing with her and he would soon pay for that.
Videl was about to punch him when Marron came running out of the house. "Videl! Are we going over your house yet?" she asked. Videl looked down at the little girl with a smile "Yep, are you ready to go?" Marron nodded furiously. Videl patted Marron on the back "Go and get you bag and come right back out." Marron ran back into the house.
After a few minute Marron emerged with a small overnight bag "I'm ready, let's go!"
"OK, let me say goodbye to Gohan first then we are out of here. OK?" Videl said to her. She turned around and gave Gohan a hug and a quick kiss. "See you tomorrow" she said. Gohan shook his head in response. Videl walked up to Marron and picked her up and jumped into the sky.
~At Satan Mansion~
Videl walked through the front door and straight to the kitchen. They both had to be up early so she decided to make an early dinner. She was in the mood for something spicy and decided on a chicken stir-fry. (that the author had taught her how to make) After dinner Videl put Marron in her bed for the night. Videl walked over to her phone to check her messages. As she listened to all of the messages from the past week she got ready for bed. She was sitting on the bed ready for sleep when her doctor's voice came over the machine. Videl was relieved, now she could get back to fighting crime. Until the results came back from the blood test she couldn't. As the doctor's voice announced the results Videl started to drift off. She was brought back into reality when the doctor said something that would haunt her the rest of the night. "What a perfect scare for Halloween" she said drifting to sleep.
~Cliff hanger. I know it is rather cheesy but I want to start making dinner. After I am done I will start writing chapter nine. For now you will just have to be happy~
~I had to fix some things in this chapter so I hope you enjoy it a little bit more. Still no takers in my little game I put in chapter seven. Come on guys its not that hard, I will give you a little hint. Do a general search on any of the search engines you can think of. Look up "DAN DAN Kokoro Hikareteku" Really any search engine will give you the answer. The first person to put it in there review will be written into the sequel for this story and it will be a major part.~

"Never mind" Videl sighed. Dinner was served and every one was starring at Videl. She was eating a lot more than usual, but they didn't say anything.
As the rest of the week passed Videl and Gohan were talked into setting up for the party.
It was now Thursday and school was about to let out. Gohan was beating his head on the desk. Their teacher was prattling on about safety during trick or treating. It was important, but he had been stuck on the same sentence for almost five minutes straight. He couldn't take it anymore and thankfully he didn't have to. The bell rang just as he was about to shout for no other reason than to shut the teacher up.
As the students filed out of the class Gohan was stopped by Videl grabbing his hand. "Hey Gohan can we talk for a second?" Videl asked. "Sure we can talk any time you want." He responded.
"Well it's about tomorrow. I was thinking that Marron and I should stay at my house tonight and meet you here. That way our costumes will be a surprise." Videl said nervously. "It's no problem I wanted Goten's and my costume to be a surprise too." Gohan said.
"OK then I am going to stop by and pick up Marron then we will see you tomorrow."
"OK let's go. I'll race ya" Gohan challenged.
"Fine" Videl sighed. She knew that she couldn't keep up with Gohan no matter how hard she tried right now.
They walked up to the roof and started getting ready to take. They both crouched down into a starter position. Videl sounded off "Ready.Set.." She didn't wait for go and took off going as fast as she could. As she got a little ways away she could hear Gohan yelling his disapproval. "Go!!!" she yelled back laughing. Gohan wasn't mad at her antics he was going to let her win any way. He took off after her making sure not to get too close and let her think she was winning.
The race ended with Gohan using a little more power at the very end to win. Videl was mad at him for it. She thought that she had finally beaten him at a race. Even though she did cheat a little she should have won that. Gohan was just playing with her and he would soon pay for that.
Videl was about to punch him when Marron came running out of the house. "Videl! Are we going over your house yet?" she asked. Videl looked down at the little girl with a smile "Yep, are you ready to go?" Marron nodded furiously. Videl patted Marron on the back "Go and get you bag and come right back out." Marron ran back into the house.
After a few minute Marron emerged with a small overnight bag "I'm ready, let's go!"
"OK, let me say goodbye to Gohan first then we are out of here. OK?" Videl said to her. She turned around and gave Gohan a hug and a quick kiss. "See you tomorrow" she said. Gohan shook his head in response. Videl walked up to Marron and picked her up and jumped into the sky.
~At Satan Mansion~
Videl walked through the front door and straight to the kitchen. They both had to be up early so she decided to make an early dinner. She was in the mood for something spicy and decided on a chicken stir-fry. (that the author had taught her how to make) After dinner Videl put Marron in her bed for the night. Videl walked over to her phone to check her messages. As she listened to all of the messages from the past week she got ready for bed. She was sitting on the bed ready for sleep when her doctor's voice came over the machine. Videl was relieved, now she could get back to fighting crime. Until the results came back from the blood test she couldn't. As the doctor's voice announced the results Videl started to drift off. She was brought back into reality when the doctor said something that would haunt her the rest of the night. "What a perfect scare for Halloween" she said drifting to sleep.
~Cliff hanger. I know it is rather cheesy but I want to start making dinner. After I am done I will start writing chapter nine. For now you will just have to be happy~
~I had to fix some things in this chapter so I hope you enjoy it a little bit more. Still no takers in my little game I put in chapter seven. Come on guys its not that hard, I will give you a little hint. Do a general search on any of the search engines you can think of. Look up "DAN DAN Kokoro Hikareteku" Really any search engine will give you the answer. The first person to put it in there review will be written into the sequel for this story and it will be a major part.~
Later
