Part 4: School Daze
Chapter 23: A Trip to Where?
I do not own Dragonball Z.
============================================================================
Videl and Gohan felt the teacher's eyes on them as they walked up the stairs to their seats. "I know it's a Monday but that's no excuse to be late. Now, where was I?" Said the woman as she turned back to the attendance sheet in her hand.
"Yes Ms. Bird." Replied Gohan and Videl as they sank into their seats. Their two blonde friends looked at them with raised eyebrows.
"What's up with you two? Rough weekend?" Asked Erasa.
"I bet they the spent all their time having sex." Said Sharpner, earning a death glare from the two demi-Saiya-jins. They had managed to hide that part of their relationship for the last week and they didn't want the entire school to find out about it since that would lead to the entire world finding out. And the last thing they needed was to on the front page of every tabloid in the world.
"For your information, we had to watch the two demon spawn." Muttered Gohan. Sharpner and Erasa stared at him blankly.
"Gohan's little brother, Goten, and his friend Trunks." Clarified Videl just before the intercom squealed to life with a burst of feedback, hurting the demi-Saiya-jins' ears.
"Good morning Orange Star High! And sorry about that!" Came the voice of a woman that is way too cheerful for eight o'clock in the morning. "Today we have a special treat for all you sophomore students. Right now your teachers should be handing out permission slips."
"Ya yamake us poor teachers do the work" Muttered Mrs. Bird as she handed started to hand out the slips of paper. Only a few people got their permission slip when she flung them down in front of one of the students. "Pass them out." She grumbled before turning and going to her desk. The student shrugged and began handing the papers out to the rest of the class.
"As I'm sure most of you know, each year the school sponsors a field trip to a place that has some educational value. And after the somewhat unenthusiastic response to last years trip to the recycling center we have come up with a destination that is sure to a real hit with all of you."
Gohan and Videl felt a cold chill wash over them, like someone has just walked over their graves. Somehow they both knew that there is only one possible destination. And as they looked at the permission slips handed to them their fear was confirmed.
"This year you'll be going to," the woman paused for dramatic effect as a drum roll played, "Capsule Corporation!"
Cheers could be heard from all over the school. This was definitely going to be a trip to remember. Gohan and Videl didn't cheer though since they knew one thing, Vegeta plus a few thousand students equaled trouble.
"What is Bulma thinking?" Muttered Videl.
"I think she's lost her mind." Added Gohan.
"If you'll check your permission slips you'll see that you'll be staying there for two nights due to how far Capsule Corp. is from this great city of ours. That means that all of you who will be going will need to bring anything that you need. If you need a capsule for your things please stop by room two eleven by the end of school on Thursday. Now, on to the announcements. For lunch today"
"This is sooo cool! I can't believe we're actually going to Capsule Corp!" Squealed Erasa.
"Yea, and from what I've seen, Mrs. Briefs is pretty good looking. Maybe I can trade up." Said Sharpner while looking thoughtful.
"I've seen pictures of that man who's supposedly married to Mrs. Briefs and he's HOT. I bet I could get him to go out with me." Said Erasa, not even noticing her boyfriends comment.
Gohan and Videl glanced at each other as images of Erasa with a frying pan shaped indentation on her head and a ki fried Sharpner filled their minds.
"Alright, settle down class!" Yelled Ms. Bird. "Today is" She grabbed her stomach and ran from the room. All the students stared as the door closed behind her.
"What was that all about?" Asked a girl one row down from Gohan and Videl.
"I don't know." Replied a boy at the front of the room.
"Do you think she's sick?" Asked Erasa.
"God I hope so. She's been weird lately." Commented Sharpner.
"She has been having mood swings lately." Said Videl.
'I wonder' Thought Gohan as he closed his eyes and concentrated on his teacher's ki. 'I can't sense it, but then I had barely been able to sense Goten when I first learned that Kaa-san was pregnant.'
::What is it Gohan?:: Asked Videl upon seeing the look of concentration on Gohan's face.
::I think she's pregnant. But I can't tell.::
::What? Seriously?::
::Think about it. The mood swings, her running from the room to throw up::
::But is she even seeing anyone? She's not married.::
::Ms. doesn't denote marital status. So she could be.::
::You're right, how did you get so smart?::
::My mom. And you get your beautiful looks from your mom.::
::It's a good thing I don't look like my dad.::
::You got that right.:: Replied Gohan before they both started laughing.
"What's up with you two?" Asked Erasa.
"Oh uhI was just thinking about something." Replied Videl.
"Yea, so was I." Said Gohan while scratching the back of his neck.
"Right, sure you were brains."
Gohan laughed. Why doesn't he believe him? "I was thinking about what it'd be like if Videl looked like her dad instead of her mom."
Sharpner and Erasa blinked at him before laughing. Videl gave her friends a look that silenced them immediately. Gohan chuckled at the fear in the eyes of the two blondes. He knew that she's not being serious.
"You think that's funny?" She asked coldly.
"Err" The two blondes stuttered. "No?"
"Oh really?"
"Umm" Gohan could swear that Sharpner and Erasa look as though they're about to pee in their pants.
"Why don't you don't you find it funny? Because I do! But it's not as funny as the look on your faces!" Sharpner and Erasa just stared as Gohan and Videl burst into laughter again.
I hope you enjoyed it and please review.
