Chapter 25: Off To Capsule Corp.
I do not own Dragonball Z.
============================================================================
Lime looked at the two chuckling black haired teens next to the blondes. "Don't mind them. They're supposedly a couple." Said Videl.
"Although I'd say it's more like Sharpner is Erasa's slave." Added Gohan. Lime laughed at this.
"Just like you're my slave, right Gohan-chan?" Asked Videl. Gohan blushed and chuckled.
"You know it."
"Well you two certainly seem more like a couple then them."
"Hey! I'll have you know that Sharpner and I were dating before they were!" Said Erasa.
"I don't know about that Erasa, Gohan and I have been a couple almost since the moment we met two years ago." Erasa's eyes narrowed as she grumbled something under her breath. Gohan and Videl chuckled like they had been able to hear and understand what was said.
"Don't mind her. She hasn't been able to go shopping in three days and is going through withdrawal."
"Well it's not my fault my credit cards are maxed out! All my parents need to do is make one little phone call to have the limit raised!" Complained the blonde girl.
"Well it's nice to meet you all." She saw Sharpner whisper something to Erasa and her slap him in return. "At least I think it's nice to meet you." Gohan and Videl laughed.
"You get used to them." Replied Gohan.
"If you say so." Said Lime while looking at the history teacher. "Shouldn't we be paying attention?"
"Look around?" Replied Videl while gesturing to the other students. "No one else is. They're all asleep or doing something besides listening."
"Ummok then." Lime looked at the sheet of paper the teacher had given her. "So what's this for?"
"The school has sponsored a field trip to Capsule Corp." Replied Sharpner, the dower look on his face indicating that the bickering with Erasa had ended with him losing.
"Really? Wow, that should be interesting." Replied Lime.
"What do you mean by that? This is THE Capsule Corp. we're talking about!" Exclaimed Erasa. "The biggest company in the world!"
"Errso? It's a company. The only thing that makes it seam so spectacular is its size. I honestly don't know why you're making such a fuss over it." Sharpner and Erasa stared at her with wide eyes. Never had they heard someone say anything like this. "And in case you're wondering, I also think that Hercule Satan is a moron and full of hot air." The two blondes gasped while Gohan and Videl laughed.
"You're right about him that's for sure." Said Gohan. Lime smiled at him.
"Yea, it's nice to meet someone who doesn't worship the ground my father walks on." Said Videl. Lime almost choked on the breath she was taking at that moment.
"Excuse me?" She managed to get out.
"My dad is none other Mr. Moron himself." Replied Videl.
"I uhsorry. I hope I didn't offend you."
"Oh please. I find my father's droves of mindless followers offensive." Gohan laughed along with Videl at the look on Lime's face while the teacher continued to drone on endlessly, seemingly oblivious to the chattering students.
"Oh man, I thought that Friday would never get here!" Exclaimed Sharpner as he joined his friends next to the large airbus their class is taking to Capsule Corp.
"So did I. I never knew two people could be so annoying." Replied Lime, causing Gohan and Videl laugh.
"This is so exciting!" Chirped Erasa. "And just what was that supposed to mean?"
"It's simple, you and Sharpner can be very annoying. And weird I might add."
"Amen sister!" Exclaimed Videl.
"Preach on!" Added Gohan as he, Videl, and Lime burst into laughter.
Sharpner and Erasa looked at the three laughing teens while thinking, 'And they call us weird?'
"Whatever, I can't wait to get to Capsule Corp. This is so exciting!" Replied Erasa.
"Yep. This trip is gonna be so cool! I can't wait to see if Bulma will go out with me!"
"You already have a girlfriend." Pointed out Lime.
"Yea Sharpner. If you're going to cheat on me then at least do it without me knowing it." Gohan, Videl, and Lime raised an eyebrow at her.
"Come on babe, I know you wanna see if you can get her husband to go out with you." Erasa's cheeks reddened.
"That's besides the point!" Retorted the blonde haired girl.
Gohan, Videl, and Lime shrugged their shoulders.
::If there was one unsolvable mystery in the universe then it was probably the relationship between those two.:: Said Gohan. Videl chuckled.
::And that's something coming from the smartest guy I know.::
::Yea, but Bulma's smarter then me. She'd probably be able to figure it out.::
::Gohan, I did say that you're the smartest guy I know. Not the smartest person I know.::
::Welloh.:: Replied Gohan while blushing from embarrassment.
::You're cute when you do that.:: Said Videl, causing Gohan's blush to darken. 'It doesn't matter how many times I say that, it always causes him to blush.' Mused Videl.
Lime looked at her to black-haired friends. 'What is up with those two?' Ever since she had met them she had noticed how they seemed to hold conversations between each other. Now that wasn't abnormal for a couple. But what was weird was the fact that their mouths didn't move. The girl shrugged it off as the teachers called for the student's attention. She liked mysteries, and now she had a real life one to solve.
"Yo, Gohan, Videl! Wake up!" Sharpner practically yelled while shaking them, they didn't move. Several minutes ago they had landed at Capsule Corp. in West Capital and now he and the two teens were the last ones on the bus.
As he stood there looking at the two teens, which seem to be dead to the world, an idea popped into his head. An idea inspired by peaceful visage of Videl's face. An idea taken from a memory of a fairytale he had heard as a little boy. An idea that any sane person, or at least anyone, who knew of Saiya-jins and their mates, would toss aside. Looking around and seeing that no one else is left on the bus he leaned closer to Videl lips.
I hope you enjoyed it and please review.
