Disclaimer: I completely forgot to put this thing in my other chapters and I'm too lazy to go back and put it in. So, I'll put it here and in upcoming chapters. I do not, and I repeat do NOT own, or claim to own DBZ of its characters. They are property of Akira Toriyama, my idol and the best animé artist ever, and are liscened under Toei Animation, not my company, Kay-chan Productions. So all you weird lawers that enjoy inflicting pain and suffering on fans by suing them, don't bother to sue me. I know my rights!!! And plus, I have no money!
Chapter 4
Once Videl came out of her reverie, she realized that she was still standing on the school lawn. She had to hurry home. If Videl planned on her father allowing her to attend Gohan's party, she would need all the time she could get to convince him.
Unaware to young miss Satan, who secretly would rather be known as Mrs. Son, Hercule was actually pretty fond of Gohan. They had had a little chat a while back. Hercule knew that Gohan was a good person, and even if there was the slightest dought in the champ's (yeah right!) mind, Gohan and his daughter would eventually find their way to each other, with or without Hercule's approval.
One afternoon, when Erasa had dragged (literally) Videl off to the mall, Hercule had requested the presence of the oldest son of Goku. Gohan was a little puzzled to say the least about the invitation. It was really strange; Hercule seemed to despise, or maybe the the right word was fear, the sight of Gohan. But despite the peculiar nature of the situation, Gohan accepted the invite, and went to see what the almighty (please -_-) Hercule had to say.
When he arrived, he was quite surprised at the welcome he received. Before Gohan even had the opportunity to knock on the door of the gargantuan mansion, Hercule swung open the door and locked the demi-saiyan in a tight embrace. Gohan was in complete and utter shock, not to mention excrutiating pain, surprisingly. Hercule was holding on so tight, poor Gohan was beginning to lose feeling in his arms, and his breathing was becoming quite shallow.
Hercule finally let the young man out of his deadly grip. Hercule then proceeded to thank Gohan for coming on such short notice, and ushered him inside due to the fact Videl would be home within the hour and they had much to discuss.
"Gohan m'boy, sit down, relax."
"Uh, ok"
"Have have you been; your family doing alright? What about your grades?" asked Hercule.
"Everything is fine sir," Gohan paused. "What exactly did you want to talk to me about?"
"Well, you have been dating my daughter for some time now. I just wanted to discuss your plans for a future with her," Hercule paused, "with me out of her life..." He trailed off.
"Sir, Videl would never cut you out of her life. You mean the world to her, and obviously the feeling is mutual. As for planning a future together, I don't know if that would ne possible. Videl would only accept me as a possible spouse if we had your blessing. And no offence Mr. Satan, but Videl had to practically beat the tar out of you to allow us to start dating."
"I appologize for my behavior back then, but at the time, I barely knew you. All I wanted to do was protect my little girl, and now I know that you are more than capable of doing so," Hercule answered.
"Thank you." Gohan continued, I've actually been saving up all of my money, 5000 zeni actually, to buy this." Gohan pulled out a tiny velvet box and showed it to Hercule. Hercule opened the box, only to find the most ezquisit engagement ring he had ever laid his eyes upon. Now, for hercule to be amazed by it, it had to be one amazing ring. When he was searching for an engagement ring for Videl's mother, he had seen all the best the world had to offer, and those were nothing in comparason to the one Gohan had bought.
Gohan's ring was absolutely breathtaking. It was a thin golden band, encrusted with tiny saphires, the exact colour of Videl's eyes; and seccured in its center was a snowflake shaped diamond.
"Gohan, this is magnificent! Videl will love it!" Hercule shouted.
"Yeah, I hope she does." Gohan was about to continue when he heard the front door begin to open. It was Videl. He knew this after hearing her yell 'I'm home'. Gohan grabbed the ring from Hercule's outstreched hand, said a quiet goodbye, and took off through the kitchen window.

Now, back to Videl, who was about to head home from school. *Better get going or dad will start to freak. I bet he'd thing I had gotten mugged or something* Videl thought with a slight chucle, and she took off.

Anyway, see ya soon. And didn't I tell you you wouldn't have to wait too long for an update? Laterz,
