Part 5: The Beginning of the End
Chapter 26: The Arrival
In truth I had chapters 25 and 26 already done when I posted chapter 24. I was going to wait a few days between posting each one but I've decided to just post 25 and 26 together.
I do not own Dragonball Z.
============================================================================
'I can't believe itI'm gonna' Pain shot through his head as he found himself laying on the floor in front of Gohan and Videl's seats with Gohan glaring down at him.
"If you value your life then I suggest you not try that again."
"Huh? Wha's going on?" Asked Videl as she stirred from her sleep by Gohan's movements and looked about. "Oh, we're here." Without noticing Sharpner lying on the floor beneath her feet she stood up. Somewhere in her mind she registered that he floor seemed awfully soft. "Gohan, why are you upset?" She asked upon noticing her mate's demeanor.
"Sharpner tried to wake you with a kiss." Said Gohan as he glared at the blonde.
"What?! Where is he?!" Growled Videl. Gohan pointed to the floor. Looking down, Videl eye's widened in surprise before narrowing. "How dare you try to kiss me!" Yelled the raven-haired girl as fire burned in her eyes while she stomped her foot on his stomach.
Sharpner moaned in pain as his head lulled back.
"Ouch. That was mean but he deserved it." Smirked Gohan.
"Yea. Let's get going." Videl said as she walked towards the exit of the bus.
"Where's Sharpner?" Asked Erasa when she saw her two friends emerge from the bus.
"Laying in pain on the floor." Gohan nonchalantly replied while gesturing to the bus.
"What did you do to him?" Asked Erasa.
"I punched him and then when he was on the floor Videl stomped on him, literally." Replied Gohan.
"Why'd you do that?" Asked Lime as she took a drink of her soda.
"He tried to pull the sleeping beauty routine on me." Replied Videl.
"And I'm the only one allowed to do that." Added Gohan, Videl nodded.
Lime about choked on her soda from the looks on the faces of her two friends. But before she could comment on it she was distracted by Sharpner staggering off the bus.
"Oh man, did you really have to do that?" Moaned Sharpner.
"Sharpner!" Screamed Erasa. "How dare you try to do that to her!" Sharpner blinked before falling to the ground and curling up into a ball.
"I'm sorry babe! Ouch! I didn't mean it! That hurt! You know you're the only one for me!" Pleaded Sharpner while Erasa was smacking and kicking him.
"For her being his only one he sure doesn't act like it." Joked Lime.
"Yea, but Erasa's no different." Replied Videl as silence fell over the group of students. Turing to where all of them are looking they see Bulma standing on a small platform.
"Good afternoon and welcome to Capsule Corporation. I know that you all probably want to unwind after that long flight so what do you say to getting your rooms assigned?" Cheers of approval rang out from the students and school faculty alike. "Very well. First IGohan, Videl. Please stop that girl. I don't need any law suits from that boy's parents for letting him get beat up." All eyes turned to the two demi-Saiya-jins as the rumor mill instantly kicked into high gear. The two demi-Saiyan-jins could hear whispers of "They know THE Bulma Briefs?" spread like wildfire through the throng of students. Gohan and Videl blushed. Even if she was the daughter of the world's most recognizable men, Videl didn't like being the center of attention. And Gohan was never really around large crowds of people until he started attending Orange Star High School.
"Ok Bulma." Replied the two teens as they separated the two blondes.
"Thank you. Now back to business. As much as you'd like to have them, there won't be any coed rooms unless there needs to be." Several grumbles and protests came from some of the students. Gohan and Videl noticed that Lime seemed relieved by this, unlike most of the other students. "Now I'd like all the boys over there and all the girls over here." Without too much complaining the students separated out. "Gohan, Videl? What are you doing? You know you can have your usual room." Said Bulma when she saw them standing in the separate groups. Again the two demi-Saiya-jins blushed.
"What do you mean by their usual room?" Asked one of the students.
Lime looked at her two friends curiously. She had figured that they were close, but not that close.
Bulma, ignoring the look telling her to stop from Gohan and Videl, replied, "They're here so often that they have their own room."
"You mean they share the same room?" Asked a girl from somewhere in the group of girls.
"If they have a coed room then I want one too!" Yelled one of the jocks. This seemed to spark dozens of other yells.
"No, I'm sorry." Said Bulma, but her voice was lost in the shouts of the teens. Gohan and Videl gulped and covered their ears upon seeing the glint of anger in Bulma's eyes. Lime was about to ask them what they were doing when her question was answered before it left her lips.
"SHUT THE HELL UP RIGHT NOW!" Silence instantly fell over the sea of faces. Most of the student's, especially those closer to Bulma, were holding their ringing ears. None of them knew that a person could yell so loud.
Bulma looked out at the students and saw something she didn't often see unless she was angry, holding a frying pan, and facing one of her friends. Fear. These students were suddenly afraid of her. And she liked it. Now she knew why Vegeta enjoyed inspiring fear so much. The thought that one simple yell had done this brought a smirk to her face. This new expression caused the students to cringe slightly.
"Good. Now as I was going to say. Gohan and Videl's parents are good friends of mine. And I know that Gohan's mother would have a fit if she found out I didn't allow her little baby to share a room with his girlfriend." The group of students fell silent as they tried to comprehend how the biggest nerd in the school, as far as some were concerned, was THE Videl Satan's boyfriend?
Beside him he could hear Sharpner snicker. "Momma's boy." Whispered the blonde. Gohan's elbow suddenly found itself jabbed into Sharpner's gut.
Bulma, who had seen him do it, exclaimed, "Gohan! I'm surprised at you! What would your mother say?"
"Sorry, but he tried to kiss Videl." Bulma blinked before shrugging her shoulders.
"Oh." She didn't bother to try and figure out how the guy could have done that since Gohan is between him and Videl. And since she could tell that he wasn't lying she let it slide. "Now, if there aren't any more questions please divide up into groups of four."
I hope you enjoyed it and please review.
