A/N: I'm so sorry --, I haven't updated in 2 weeks, so very sorry. I was playing Final Fantasy 3 (On NES) too much, it's an addictive game, and great fun. It was making me wonder on why the American's didn't import, and translate it, so that I, and everyone else could enjoy it! Stupid importing companies… Too much like Final Fantasy 1 they say! Well because of them, the whole Final Fantasy numbering is stuffed up.
Now back as to writing, I have a problem, I think it's an evil strand of writer's block. I only have a good idea of the beginning and end (the beginning already written down) so I'm sorry if this seems worse than usual.
And there may just be a good side to me not updating for two weeks, (now that I'm almost at the end of FF3j) I can now update every two days, for the next two weeks! But this will only happen if I get rid of this stupid strand of writers block. Feh!
Trugeta: I'm glad you liked the fact that Videl trained, I always thought the same, humans (in the show at least) being too weak. I, myself only have a faint idea on who the mystery man is… =P. Yes… Mysterious demonic 'woman' and I will be thanking you for the advertising, till the end of this fic most likely. So once again thanks.
Hunt: You think so? , I hope it's better than the previous too. Thank you
Aragorn566: I'm glad you still like it, you're becoming one of my new regular reviewers .
Wizardmon92: I didn't explain it too well. The chosen ones are the legendary clan of super saiyans mentioned in the first story, and one new addition (Videl).
Luna's Meow: I did, but it doesn't matter, and I am.
I'm glad that everyone liked it, but once again be wary of sudden abandonment, and an unlikely long wait between chapters.
Pandora's Legend
Chapter 1
"Gohan! Waaaake uuuuupp! Mum says you have school!"
Gohan opened his eyes, the sun's light blinding him. He was having a wonderful dream, involving Videl, but than it morphed. Videl's lovely face changed to a totally different woman, she had a slightly hooked nose, and slanted eyes, and this woman was showing Gohan scenes of a lovely future, where Gohan was her husband, and his parents were lying in lushly green fields, laughing in the gentle sun's rays. Goten and Trunks were having arm wrestles with each other, and Vegeta was… smiling, hugging Bulma. Gohan knew there had been something wrong with that picture. She was showing him scenes of their power as rulers of the world. Crowd's cheering at their 'King Gohan' passed them by. Gohan was trying to fight these images off, finding them unnatural, he didn't want power, he just wanted his dream of Videl, and so he concentrated on her. The woman's show of the future was diminishing, and than he saw her face again. Angry, and confused, she hadn't understood who this Videl was, and these feelings he felt for her. She scowled at him, and gave up, she was swearing at him, saying that since she can't turn him, she'll just have to destroy him! And than his dream turned back to Videl, before he was woken by Goten.
Gohan got up, ruffling Goten's hair as he sat up.
"Hey squirt, I'll be down in a minute, where's Kii?"
"She's downstairs watching TV."
Gohan laughed, Kii was Goten's monkey, the smartest monkey he had ever seen. She had an appetite to rival a saiyans, and was quite strong too, but that was because Goten had been training her.
=====
Gohan landed softly on the roof of Orange Star High. Videl landed a few minutes afterwards, as they walked down the stairs, Videl whispered in Gohan's ears.
"Do you mind if I come over after school too spar?"
"No problem... I'm sure Goten and Kii will be happy."
Videl laughed.
=====
"Yo, super man, I've got a deal for you, if you teach me how to fly, I'll teach you how to become strong. Fair?"
Gohan rolled his eyes.
"Thanks Sharpener, but don't worry about me, I'm sure your intelligent enough to figure out how to fly by yourself, after all you are a great fighter."
Gohan fought to keep the smile off his face, while Videl, from behind Sharpener, was laughing out loud, with no attempt to cover it up.
"Oh yeah, I'm sure I am, but I just need you to show me how you can… umm… show me the stances, because that comes from… err… experience… Yeh, experience, that's it."
Sharpener straightened and looked happy for himself, he thought he had covered it up well.
"Well, I'm sure you can teach yourself, how could one of your intelligence and strength not learn on your own? You don't need me."
Sharpener was stumped.
"Yeh… Thanks Gohan…"
Videl was rolling on the floor laughing hard, tears were falling down her face, and a puddle was forming.
"Hey Videl! Why are you on the floor? What's so funny? Aaaanyway wanna go shopping later, the CC prizes at the school excursion for the top girl fighter, you know the makeup sets, well they're finally on sale! And I wanna buy one!"
Videl grimaced in disgust, she remembered that, the one which was lying in the corner of her closet, collecting dust, and giving spiders a new home.
"What happened to yours anyway Videl?"
"Umm… I never got it, you know with those criminal guys stuffing up the excursion…"
It was Gohan's turn to laugh, knowing perfectly well where that make up kit was.
"Yeh, I'm glad Mrs. Brief's husband got that sorted out, though I'm sure Hercule could have kicked that guys ass quicker."
"Yeh, sure he could have…"
Gohan started to laugh again at the Hercule comment, he wished Vegeta could have been here to hear it, it would have been hilarious.
"So, can you go shopping with me? Come ooon!"
"Yeh Videl, go shopping with Erasa, you'll have a blast."
"Thanks Videl!"
Videl turned her head towards Gohan, glaring at him, while she was being dragged off by Erasa, Just before they were out the doors, Videl made a loud suggestion, in a sugary high pitched voice.
"Eraasaa, why don't we take Gohan along with us, I'm suuure he'd love to come."
Erasa ran back, and started dragging the blubbering Gohan, his mouth opening and closing with no words coming out. When he finally did get some words out, he spoke another suggestion.
"Why don't we take Sharpener as well Erasa, not wanting to hurt her feelings, by saying he didn't want to come. At least this way he wouldn't have to the only male going."
"Yeh! Let's make it a party!"
Sharpener was yanked out of his conversation with one of the people on the rugby team about whether fighting or rugby was better, and was also dragged off by Erasa. How Erasa managed to drag three people with only two arms and hands, no-one ever knew.
=====
She had changed her skin colour, and had got rid of her wings. She was now wearing a tight t-shirt and a very short leather skirt. Her blue eyes, and blonde hair attracted the attention of every man on the streets. The moon shone down on her face, but no-one was paying attention to her cruelly beautiful face, but rather, her shapely figure. Her mouth was smiling slightly, and she was sucking a lollipop seductively.
She walked into an alley, where no one was around. A man drove up to her, and opened his car's door, [1] the smell of smoke wafting out.
"Hey babe, would you like to put those lips around something else?"
She looked to either side of her, and saw no one, she took the lollipop out of her mouth and bent over. She motioned to kiss him, and while his mouth was open, she made a hissing noise, and a purple mist was sucked out of the man's body. His skin shriveled, and shrunk tightly around his bones, most of his brown hair fell out, leaving only a few strands left o his head, his eyeballs disintegrated into dust, and the tight skin crushed the cartlidge in his nose.
She finished, said a few words to the dead body, looked around again and walked off.
In the car a clothed mummy stared out the windscreen, his skull resting on the shoulder of the passenger seat. [2] A lollipop stick stuck out from under his hands.
=====
[1] A hover car that is, not a conventional car, just to stick to the DBZ world likeliness.
[2] Like an American car, which has the driver's seat on the left, rather than the rest of the world's right =P
