the third to last chapter...
Gohan: *finally catches up, panting* What... It's... NOT OVER!??!
Cesna: Ha! You'll just have to read to find out what happens to you!!!
Gohan: Wha... NOOOOOOOOO--
**************
"Wow, it feels so good just to move!" Gohan laughed as he jumped off of bed and rotated his arms about. He looked back to Videl, who simply watched him. "Wanna go out for breakfast?"
She blushed. "...like, a date or something?" She asked, starting to smile.
He began to laugh, making her frown. "Oh, no! I'm just really hungry," She fell over anime style.
"YOU BIG IDIOT!" She screamed once she jumped back up. Gohan appeared very confused.
"What?" He asked. "I can pay for it, if that's what you're concerned about,"
She took a deep breath, calming herself down. 'Of course he doesn't think of me that way... To him, our relationship is just where he left it when he got sick... friends. I was stupid to think that he, the nicest, coolest, most HOT guy in the world would...' She looked up to him. He had a cautious look on his face, afraid he had angered her. "No, it's okay Gohan, I'll pay my way," She said quietly. "Let's go,"
************
"Woman! I am fine, you really think I have the same weakness as Kakkorot when it comes to food?!" Vegeta sneered and walked into the lab, his nagging wife behind him.
"Well, Vegeta, you ARE a saiyan!" She growled. "That means you need more food than we do, and living on water wasn't and DIDN'T make Gohan better!"
"You think I was moping about, onna?!" He retorted.
"WOULD YOU CALL ME BY MY FREAKING NAME?!" She yelled. "You are IMPOSSIBLE you know that?"
"You love it," He said and seductively wrapped an arm around her waist. Bulma wanted to tell him otherwise, but he was right. She absolutely loved his bad guy attitude, and there was no denying it.
"Punk," She giggled and was about to let him kiss her, but she saw past him at the monitor that was SUPPOSED to be keeping tabs on Gohan and Videl... But there was one problem. "Where are they?!" They were no longer there. "Vegeta, Gohan still isn't well! He can't be roaming around in his condition!!! I knew I should have gone in there when I had the chance!!!" Vegeta, miffed that his moment was interrupted, let her fret about. "Aug! Knowing him, he could be miles away!!! STUPID KID!"
"Calm down, woman, I can sense ki, remember? I could potentially go get him for you,"
"You would do that?" Bulma asked, not liking the sinister tone that his voice held.
"Of course... For a price,"
She rolled her eyes. "I should have known,"
"Let me pick up where I left off when I come back,"
"Fine, fine! Just get him back!" She pleaded.
"Feh! I'll be back before you know it," He shot and left the room. Bulma once again resorted to plopping back into her chair.
"Just when I think everything is fine..." She moaned, rubbing her temples.
*************
"It's such a nice day out!" Gohan said happily, jogging through the streets, Videl struggling to keep up.
"Bookworm, hold up!" She called after him. He began to boom his loud goofy laugh.
"Can't match my speed, oh mighty daughter of Hercule?" He asked, speeding up his pace playfully.
"I'll kill you once I get a hold of you!" She screamed, increasing her speed too.
"Once you get a hold of me? Don't you mean... IF?!" He cackled, now running.
"You're asking for it!"
She sped after him, smiling evilly. They ran through the street, making people stare curiously. They ran through crowds, past plenty of restaurants, forgetting about their breakfast date. Pretty soon, they were on the city limits, and the large building thinned out, but she couldn't catch him.
"You'd... better... get back here!" She yelled, stopping to catch her breath. They were in a field of grass, the city on the horizon. Gohan looked back over his shoulder and only slowed his pace slightly.
"Told you that I'm too fast!" He said happily, but his foot snagged on a rock, and he went headfirst into the ground. She busted out laughing at him.
"More like too stupid!" Videl cried, wiping tears from her eyes. "Bookworm..." She sat up, and realized he hadn't gotten up yet. "Huh? Are you okay?" She stood up, worry coming over her face. "Gohan!" She ran to his side in an instant, him just having pushed himself up with his elbow. He was panting heavily. "What's wrong?"
He laughed lightly. "Hey... You called me Gohan..." He fell back down, gritting his teeth and groaning.
"Oh my gosh, Gohan!" She wailed, looping one of his arms over her neck so she could prop him up to his feet. "I should have known you weren't ready to get out of bed yet, lets get back to the Capsule Corp and Bulma can get you some medicine," He nodded slowly. They started off, but Gohan became unable to even slightly support his weight, making Videl's knees buckle under his weight. "Gohan, you weigh a ton!" She gasped.
"Heh-heh... Sorry," He muttered, and then his face contorted in pain, and it took every ounce of his restraint to not scream. His grip completely slipped from Videl and he slumped to the ground, clutching his heart in pain.
"Oh, Gohan I'm so sorry!" She cried. She clasped her hands on his. "It'll be okay, I'll get out my plane and get you back to the Capsule Corp!"
He laughed through the pain. "Your hands... they're soft..."
Deciding he was delirious, she pulled a hand away to find her capsules, when she heard a light tap on the ground behind her.
"YOU STUPID HUMAN, WHY'D YOU TAKE HIM OUT!" A scream came from behind. She looked back to see a short, scary man with tall, spiky hair wearing spandex. He wore white gloves and boots, and looked very angry.
"I...I..." She murmured, unable to find an answer fast enough.
This angered him, making him stomp forward in an accusing manner. "YOU'RE AN IDIOT!!!"
"Ve...Vegeta..." Gohan grunted. "It was... my idea...stop... yelling at her..." After finishing his sentence, he screamed out in pain, Videl now hesitating to calm him down.
Although he didn't acknowledge Gohan, he stopped screaming and simply threw him over his shoulder. 'But he was so heavy to me... this guy is acting like he weighs nothing at all...' Videl thought in amazement. Then something happened that shocked her further. He lifted off the ground, as if levitating, and FLEW OFF.
"HEY! WHERE ARE YOU TAKING GOHAN?!" She screamed after him. "Oh, screw this," She scowled and took out her jet capsule, and threw it to the ground. She got in as soon as it formed, and rocketed off after the strange man Gohan referred to as Vegeta.
*************
When Vegeta walked into the Capsule Corp holding the struggling and screaming Gohan, everyone practically pounced on him, getting Gohan proper treatment.
"Medicine! Medicine! Where in the heck is it?!" Bulma wailed above them all. "Hurry, get him to bed! Give him some of this, and I'll go get Mirai!"
Reluctantly, Vegeta followed them into Gohan's room, where they had just put him in his bed and forced some medicine down his throat. He stayed away from the rest of them, simply crossing his arms and watching. Gohan gripped at anything that was around, continuing to scream and howl and writhe. Bulma walked back in, seeming frustrated.
"Well?" Goku asked her over the yelling of his son.
"He wasn't there.... I yelled into the computer for a good few minutes... So I just left him a message and set the laptop to 'urgent', which will make an annoying, loud noise until he responds..."
"I hope he'll get here soon, Gohan isn't responding at all to this stuff..." Goku muttered.
"He isn't?" Bulma asked, genuinely surprised. "Two days..." Fear struck her heart hard, and Videl rushed in.
"GOHAN!" She cried and came to his side. His flailing was slowing and his screaming became weaker, but upon watching him, she could feel his pain double in every second. Bulma quickly hooked him up to a heart monitor, and gasped.
"That is way abnormal!" She wailed. "Oh no, he's not going to make it!" She cried.
"NO! HE'S GOING TO LIVE!" Videl cried. Gohan opened his eyes and looked at Videl, smiling at her through gritted teeth.
"I... I'm sorry..." He grunted
"You can't die Gohan! You can't!" She cried, bringing her hands quickly to his.
"What do you mean he's not going to make it?!" Chi-Chi demanded, Bulma having a guilty look on her face.
"Mirai told me that if he was to die of this heart virus... he would die today..." She said as his heart rate only increased dramatically.
"WHAT?!" Everyone in the room screamed.
"You tell us about this NOW?!" Krillin wailed.
"I thought... I thought he would be okay!" Bulma said defensively. "I didn't think that..." The words Mirai said the other day haunted her 'His vitals will show signs of slight improvement, then the disease will strike him down...' He didn't tell her that 'vitals' meant GETTTING UP AND RUNNING AROUND! Aug, she could kill him!
"Gohan..." Videl sobbed, tears running down her face as her shoulders heaved. "You can't leave me like this..." He reached up with a shaky hand and wiped away some tears.
"Videl..." He moaned, feeling himself on the verge of unconsciousness. "Don't... Cry..."
She smiled as he touched her face, but that smile was overtaken by an expression of horror as his hand fell limp, and his eyes became wide, and his breathing became short and ragged. "GOHAN, NO!" The heart monitor went insane with beeps.
Chi-Chi brought her hands up to her face, howling with sobs. Goku could only watch in horror. Krillin was paralyzed with fear of what would happen in the next few seconds. Vegeta watched, his stoic expression slowly shifting into a look of shock.
The door slammed open.
"Get out of the way! GET OUT OF THE WAY!" An unfamiliar voice boomed, coming forward in a flash of lavender and black.
"Mirai!" Bulma said in relief. Sure enough, there was Mirai, a dose of new medicine in hand, ready to give it to Gohan.
"Gohan..." Videl whispered into his wide, blank eyes. "You can't die..." His eyes showed no sign of response as Mirai gave him the medicine.
"I think I was too late..." Mirai said, his fists shaking in anger. "I knew I shouldn't have left that monitor..."
Gohan's eyes flickered with momentary emotion, then they shut, and he breathed deeply, and exhaled slowly, and along with this exhale of breath, his heart monitor no longer rapidly beeped...
Now, it was one long, sharp noise. The sound echoed in all their souls, bringing new meaning to horror.
***********
Cesna: Bum bum buuuuuuuuuuuum!
Gohan: WHAT?!?! You killed me! You actually freaking killed me!!!
Cesna: Gohan, Gohan, Gohan.... *shakes head* Yes I did.
Gohan: AUG!!!! So is it really over this time?!
Cesna: Of course not! You really think I'm just going to leave it open like that?
Gohan: So what's going to happen NOW, seeing as you've killed the greatest character of all time?
Cesna: .... Even if I knew, I wound't tell you.
Gohan: WHAAAAT?! You don't even know yet?!? You said you finished the story!
Cesna: ... I might change the ending, cause I don't like it. Maybe even give the readers a choice at what happens from here.
Gohan: Huh? YOU ALREADY KILLED ME!!! HOW CAN THEY--
Cesna: Hey now! Give me some creative liscense, and I'll sort all this out, kay? *nods*
Gohan:.... *growls*
Gohan: *finally catches up, panting* What... It's... NOT OVER!??!
