Thank you, my adoring public! Thank you for all of those reviews! Here's
chapter four. Enjoy and REVIEW!
By the time the day was through, Videl had learned that this "demon" was in all of her classes. She had to tell her grandmother, ASAP. Even though the lady was a wrinkled old crone, she could kick anyone's ass to Hong Kong and back.
"Grandma." Videl called into the house. She was promptly whacked on the head. "I mean, Honored Elder."
"Yes, child. What ails you?"
"There is a demon attending my school, Honored Elder."
"Kids these days. What do you know of this person?"
"Honored Elder, he claims to have fought against Cell. His records say that he lives in a house in the Black Forest, with his father, step-mother, and step-brother."
"And how are you sure that this boy is a. demon?"
"I used the aura reading technique you taught me. He had a powerful illusion up, and when I got past it. he is a demon!"
"Hmm. I shall research the matter. For now, just act. easy with the lad. Perhaps we can change the old laws..."
Videl snorted at the thought. Last thing she wanted was for her and Gohan to be involved in a relationship. The Elder cackled at her, and dismissed her to leave.
Over the weeks, Videl learned that her enemy would have been a good friend. 'Perhaps even a great husband,' she thought as he tutored her in fighting. But, he was a demon. Of that, she was sure now. The picture of his mother was remarkably like that of Miredi, a murderous dog demon, in a human guise. He had told her that she had left them when he was seven, but beyond that, nothing.
After a couple of months, she had heard the rumor that she and Gohan was a couple. When she had told her grandmother, the old hag had guffawed for hours. But now, they were ready to get rid of this threat. Yet, Videl didn't expect her to move so suddenly, while school was in session. So she was shocked beyond belief when she had a phone call at the school.
"Hello. Videl here."
"Child, the family has been wiped out. I have left a bow and arrows in the nearest tree to the door. Go with the boy to his home, and kill him by immobilizing him with a spell and arrow. Then strike with a sword from your subspace pocket. You must do it quickly. Until you get home." The phone clicked, signaling that this conversation was over.
Videl played her part perfectly, though she was beginning to have doubts. When they arrived at the Son residence, a simple glance provided the knowledge that no one alive resided in the dwelling. While Gohan was checking the house, Videl grabbed the bow and quiver of arrows. She nocked one arrow on the string, and took aim, putting the focus energy and spell into the shaft with an incantation.
Hearing the muttered words, Gohan turned around, just to catch an arrow through the right side of his chest. The force of the arrow slammed him up against the side of the house, and the tip penetrated the wood. Gohan gasped in mixed surprise and pain, and felt his illusion of humanity drop, the arrow dispelling all of his energy into the surrounding area. He couldn't even reach up to dislodge the thing.
From Koyasha to you! : Ok, so we found out here that Videl and her grandmother were really bad witches (just, take away the "a," "d," " ," and "w") and Amazons. It seems to remind you a bit of Inu-Yasha with the whole stuck to something with an arrow thing, but, eh. So, whatcha think? Good, bad, needs to die? Send in 6 reviews this time, and I'll keep it going.
Next time: Hey, who's that mysterious guy with a sword? Wait a sec! He's got lilac hair! It's....... And, wow. A free trip to China, courtesy of Videl and her Amazon grandmother. Why me?!
