A/N: We're in luck. I did all the work I had to do, and my parents let me off. But I can't update as often, because I've got exams right now, and I want to do better at school so I don't encounter another computer ban. So that will mean I won't update every second day or so till the next holidays. Oh yes and I realised that I was wrong about Goku saving the earth, because than I had a limited knowledge of what happened in Dragon Ball before it was continued in DBZ. I would fix it if my story files weren't stuffed up.
Luna's Meow: I couldn't sneak, cos the door in my room leads to his room which leads to the hallway, and thanks for the review on Chp7
Chris: I take it you mean apart from Gohan, no there aren't any saiyans that we know of cough who are ss4
Hiaburi: I hate Pinky and the Brain too... It also was a veeeeerrry bad joke, and I don't want to even guess the answer to the five fingers question.
Trunks' Brat Baby: Lol, for outstanding I meant that it was overdue =P My brother was the one who actually came up with the plan. And to his satisfaction it worked, I did all my work etc. Eh my brother's really nice, so I don't really hold it against him.
Aydan07: I'm sorry I couldn't reply earlier, its fine with me if you use my ideas. But I don't see how any of my ideas haven't been used before. But it's flattering that you would ask.
reader: I had no idea, as I haven't been able to watch DBGT, because my information sources (fan websites) didn't mention it.
Telcontar-lover: Thanks, but I think I may have lost readers for it...
SonJanusX: Thanks, I'm glad you like it.
Cameron: cough Not quite as soon as you hoped eh?
Phantom Demon: Thanks for your vouch of support.

The Prophet's Legend
Chapter 8
The rest of the day passed rather quickly, the tour wasn't as boring as everyone expected it to be, but Videl hadn't payed any attention. After the tour each student was assigned their rooms, and 2 people per room had been the rule. Since Gohan had his own suite, Videl was left the choice of sleeping in her own room, or in Gohan's as he had offered her.
She chose Gohan's room, because while she was independent, she also realised that she would be bored, as there would be no-one to talk too. 'Anyway' she reasoned, 'I could find out more about him, and maybe he would be ready to tell me about his hair colour changing trick.'
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The next morning, all the students were invited to spend the day at the Private Capsule Corps theme park, free of charge, of course.
Surprise was etched on everyone's faces as they entered. For one thing, it didn't have a granite ground, and rather was a mass of stone pathways cutting through grass fields and leading from the pavilion square to each ride. While the park had the common roller coaster, it also had a wide array of other rides, such as the gyrating slides, where you were in an open capsule like structure on a tubular slide which from the centre, moved up and down, side to side, and even upside down until you managed to get to the end of the tube, and drop out onto a soft mattress.
To Videl it looked like a massive kendo sword. To Gohan, it reminded him of Goten with a stick.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"We have arrived my Lord..."
"Than we must attack immediately, tell the Fugyo team to prepare."
"But sir, there is something you may like to take advantage of..."
"What would that be?"
"To-mar-row there is a small tournament, one of Bardock's decendants is taking part."
"Yes, Bardock the first, the son of Nathu, the one who seeded the doubt of the right of Marvik's reign! The one who got me living on the hellhole of a planet called Fruta. Tell the Fugyo team to wait, we will attack in the middle of this tournament. And Kivram!"
"Yes sire?"
"Fix your language up, their tongue is very similar to ours, the only difference being time, so it's little to learn how to speak a few words, we may need to mingle among these weaklings. Tell everyone to suppress their ki further, to the level of a human. Make sure everyone wears some head covering. We don't want to reveal our identity as part-saiyans."
"Yes my lord,"
Kivram smiled, he knew how fast his lord's mind worked, and immediately can think up of something to fix the problem, or take advantage of the situation. He didn't envy the saiyans on earth, how can one stand up to a person as powerful, and intelligent as Nasta. Stupid fools, trying to evict his own indirect ancestors from the throne, see what it brought upon them, the wrath of Nasta!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gohan was about to follow Erasa, Videl and Sharpener to another ride until Vegeta flickered in front of him.
"Vegeta! None of them are supposed to know how strong we are!"
"Bah none of those pathetic humans realized anyway..."
Gohan looked around, Vegeta was right, no-one had noticed.
"Yeah, ok, what did you want anyway?"
"It's been almost three days since we last sparred, and I have that bad feeling that something's adrift... And a saiyan never ignores his instincts. So Gravity Room... Now!"
"Fine! Let me just say some excuse to my friends... Umm can anyone watch?"
"Why brat? I thought you wanted to keep up your act of being a weakling."
"I think I owe it to Videl, too see how strong I really am. However, we will have to make sure our tails don't untie themselves."
"Yes! Whatever brat, just fight me!"
"Ok, ok I'm going to tell them, okay!"
"Good, I will be waiting in the Gravity room"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Videl watched from the only viewing area of the Gravity room, a small booth situated near the top of the dome, looking down on the fighters as they prepared. She noticed there was some kind of eyeglasses lying on the table situated next to the chair. They seemed to have started fighting, but she couldn't see a thing, except the occasional golden blur and faint image of them pausing to hit each other. She decided to try on the glasses, as she had nothing to do, as she couldn't see anything. She put them on, and the table seemed exactly the same, but as she looked back into the gravity room she could see them moving, and it was than that she realized how fast they were actually moving.
Gohan threw a punch with his right hand, only for Vegeta to grab it, and try to punch him. Gohan caught it as well, only for Vegeta to break the wrestle, by trying to kick Gohan in the gut, but Gohan flickered and did a roundhouse kick on Vegeta, only for Vegeta's image to flicker and grab Gohan from behind around the throat, but as soon as this happened, Gohan threw him off his back and into a wall, and prepared a blast.
"Masenko-Ha!"
The dust settled and Gohan sensed Vegeta trying to land a kick from behind, but he flickered away and tried a technique he had wanted to for a while. He put his arms over his shoulders as if he was going to throw a soccer ball and shouted.
"Slicing Boomerang!"
He threw his hands forward from his shoulder blades and two blue boomerang shaped ki blasts shot towards Vegeta, and Vegeta dodged them.
"You think that was going to hit me?!"
Vegeta noticed that Gohan was still smirking, and at the last moment turned around, and saw the two blue ki boomerangs shoot right at him. Vegeta was holding his right shoulder as the ki boomerangs dissipated.
"Damn you brat! That nearly cut my arms off!!"
"Oh, come on, Vegeta, you know that could have easily been fixed."
"Damn you brat! I hate your saiyan side!"
"Lets get back to sparring Vegeta..."
"Damn stuck up brat."
Gohan flickered once again, and so did Vegeta. As Gohan appeared behind him, Vegeta flickered again and did a cycle kick from underneath Gohan. Gohan was flying towards the Gravity Room's ceiling, and Vegeta flickered above Gohan, but at the last nanosecond Gohan turned around and punched Vegeta in the gut before he could hammer punch him, and than flickered above Vegeta, and did what Vegeta was going to do to him. Vegeta was flying downwards, but turned around in mid-flight with a smirk on his face. His right hand was curled as if he was holding a disk, and was just above the left side of his waist.
"Shiruken Ha!"
His hand was a blur, as small red star shaped blasts sped towards Gohan. He managed to dodge all of them until he felt a stabbing pain in his left thigh.
"I have some tricks of my own brat, but that one I had wanted to try out for a while."
"Vegeta, you don't play fair!"
He than flickered again and tried to elbow Vegeta, only for Vegeta to phase out and grab Gohan's shoulder with one hand, and his legs with another, his knee was pressed into Gohan's back. Gohan than writhed, before gathering ki again.
Two thin white beams shout out from each of his palms, curved and connected above Vegeta's back. Gohan than pushed his arms together from his sides, tightening the beam against Vegeta's back. The smell of burning flesh could be smelt, and Vegeta grit his teeth and pushed his knee even further into Gohan's back. The test of endurance. Gohan finally let go of his beam, and Vegeta relinquished his hold on Gohan.
"You may be more powerful than me brat, but when we spar on equal levels, you don't have enough skill to get yourself out of tight spaces. There were a few holes in your fighting technique, but you used speed to stop me from using them, but if you ever verse an opponent faster than you, you will be dead. Your hidden power won't be able to keep you from death all the time!"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Videl was stunned, she had had no idea, how fast, and how powerful Gohan was till she saw that spar, she was disappointed she couldn't have heard anything though. She was sure to ask Gohan if he could teach her though, and if he didn't do it willingly, she'd have to black mail him.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gohan was forced to enter his name on the roll for the swimming race by nearly all of his 'friends'. Erasa wanted to see him half naked, Sharpener, to prove that he is a weakling, and Videl, because she wanted to race him.
Gohan sighed, his feelings for Videl had grown, and he was almost at the point of thinking that he loved her. But even if he did love her, he was pretty sure she wouldn't love him back. He shrugged it off, and let things run their course. He started by going to the changing rooms so he could change, if only there was some way he could stop them finding out how strong he was...
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Videl thought over the last few weeks, she was surprised at how fast her friendship with Gohan had processed. She reckoned that he was probably the best friend she had ever had. Her thoughts even drifted to love, but she stopped.
'Stop thinking like Erasa!'
She laughed at the concept of love in relationship with Gohan, she couldn't love Gohan! She left it at that, but that needle of doubt weaved itself into her mind.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Third group! Please step up the starting line."
Gohan realized this was as far as he could hide himself under the towel he cloaked around himself. He dropped the towel with a sigh and stepped up to the diving line.
"Ready!"
Gohan tried to keep his face hidden under his goggles, but he realized it wouldn't be long before they would figure it out.
"Set!"
Murmurs spread through the crowd, all asking the same question, of who was the mysterious handsome swimmer.
"Go!"
"Oh my god! That's Gohan!!!!"
Gohan swam hard, for about two laps hoping to not hear the cries of the crowd, before realizing that his speed made hem look even more suspicious. After another lap of quite slow swimming, Gohan looked behind him, and saw Videl grin at him in the midst of her swimming. He swam on, and came first, only beating Videl by a second or less.
As he got out, he frowned and turned to Videl.
"You knew this was going to happen!"
Videl just grinned wider...
"I give up! Damn you!"
He pouted and stalked off to his room before the adoring fans could reach him, and swarm over him.
Videl just laughed
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Goku, you will be allowed to go back to Earth in two days"
"Really King Kai? Cool, I can eat Chi chi's cooking again, and think of all of that mouth watering food..."
"I'm happy too Goku..."
"Didn't you mean to say "I'm happy for you too Goku" King Kai?"
"Uh yes, whatever you said Goku..."
King Kai coughed suspiciously
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
He walked in the shadows by one of the many lakes in the 439 mountain area, his short black hair was combed back however it was still spiky, and he wore a tan leather vest, with a maroon red undershirt. His face was covered from the chin up to the nose by a black bandanna. He had a billowing black cloak, with the hood pulled down. He wore a pair of black baggy pants overlapping his black leather boots. And a large sword was strapped across his back. He wore black fingerless gloves, which were now grasping a pulsating red crystal, but he seemed to see deeper into the crystal, and his eyes gazed at the crystal a bit longer before putting it away in his pocket. He looked towards the sky, before continuing to walk.
He walked along a bit more, before running into a girl with blonde hair.
"I'm sorry sir"
She than looked up at his face and gasped. He grunted in response and vanished. She kept on thinking about what she saw, he had had a crescent shaped scar running from his brow to his cheek, but that was not what had made her gasp, it was that he had had no pupil or iris, his whole eyeball seemed to be... black [1]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[1] No he is not Marvik, or any of his minions.
