Gohan and Videl: A sweet surprise



Chapter Eight: Gohan is the strongest



Last time...

Gohan on the other hand smiled. When his wife was happy, his day was brighter too...

Bulma smiled.

"Good! Then it's settled. If you want, we can take a look at the little tyke that is developing within you in the next week. How about Tuesday?" she asked.

Videl nodded.

"Fine with me. And thank you, Bulma."

"You're welcome." the genius scientist said.

Now they would finish their breakfast, spend some time together, have lunch and then they would meet their friends in the city. Videl was so looking forward to tell them...



Now the continuation...

They continued their breakfast, and Videl was very glad that Bulma would oversee her pregnancy during the first few months.

She and Chi-Chi would surely be able to give her valuable tips, after all, both women had been pregnant with half-Saiyans before her.

And although she was 'only' pregnant with a quarter-Saiyan, Bulma had told her that her pregnancy would not be easier than theirs had been.

Luckily for her she had been told by Bulma that the morning sickness she would develop sooner or later would abate faster than that of a normal human pregnancy.

That somehow equalled the mood swings under which her environment would have to suffer sooner or later...

Soon they were joined by Chi-Chi and Goku, and while Goku and his son stuffed their faces the women talked about their pregnancies with Videl and gave her all kinds of tips.

After Goku and his eldest son had finished breakfast they voted to join Vegeta and the chibis in the GR, for they had sensed Gotenks KI in there some seconds before. Yeah, that would be interesting...

Gohan could not wait to test out his mystical powers against a Super Saiyan Level Three. He wanted to know if he would be able to beat him...

So they said their 'See ya later' to the ladies, gave their respective wives a gentleman like kiss and departed towards the GR. The ladies barely acknowledged their departure, for they were so constricted into their talk...

Goku and Gohan walked towards the GR and opened the outer lock. From there they could already see that an intense battle was being fought.

Vegeta was in full Super Saiyan Level Two mode, but as much as he tried, he seemed to receive a beating from Gotenks, who was in his Super Saiyan Level Three form.

Gotenks penetrated Vegetas defences with a quick punch-kick-punch combo, and that attack drove the Saiyan prince into the far wall of the GR.

But Vegeta was not beaten this easily. He recovered fast and powered up again. Then he zanzokened out of sight and reappeared faster then Gotenks could react behind him.

And Vegeta managed to connect his punch. But what he hit was not what he had awaited! It was pure KI!

Gotenks had fooled him!

Damn! the Saiyan prince thought, and it was too late to pull back, The phantom army! The brat has fooled me! he managed to think while his fist connect with what he had though was Gotenks.

The offending ghost exploded like a barrel of gasoline on impact and send Vegeta flying into the other wall.

This time he had difficulties to stagger to his feet again, while Gotenks was hovering above. But Vegeta would never declare his defeat and attacked Gotenks head on.

A swift kick for Gotenks head was blocked by the latter, and the two combatants began to exchange blows at jackhammer speed.

A normal humans' eyes would not have been able to keep up with them, but Goku and Gohan had no problems to keep up at all.

And they admired Vegetas determination, although he stood no chance against this fused Super Saiyan Three.

And sure enough, some seconds after the intense exchange of blows had begun Vegeta suddenly dropped to the floor, unconscious.

He had not seen the blow coming, for it had been dealt to fast for a Super Saiyan Two to see.

Gotenks touched down besides Vegeta and smirked. Yeah, he ruled!

Goku and Gohan entered the GR, and Vegeta came to his senses again.

"Aww, my head..." the Saiyan prince grunted, "you pack one hell of a wallop, brat."

Gotenks grinned.

"Thanks, but I know. Anyone else wanna challenge me? I am currently in top form!"

Gohan stepped forward and grinned.

"Yeah. Me." he said and went into fighting stance. "And I won't go easy on you. So you better start as a Super Saiyan Three from the beginning!" he said.

Gotenks grinned.

"Okay, no holding back!" he said and powered up into full Super Saiyan Three mode. That was when Vegeta sensed just how much Gotenks had held back against him.

His power is unreal! he thought.

But Gohan just grinned too. He strained his muscles and powered up into his mystical state.

Swirling colours were surrounding him like a tornado, and his power shot through the roof.

The first move coming from Gohan was faster than anybody could follow, and he landed a crushing elbow check to Gotenks abdomen, followed by a swift feet sweeper, in which he only managed to kick thin air.

This time Gotenks had had his guard up, but he knew that it would be much harder this time. Gohan was much stronger than Vegeta, maybe even stronger than he himself. But he would never give up and strained his limits.

They exchanged blows and kicks faster than Vegeta could follow, but Goku was able to keep up with their them.

This told Vegeta that his old comrade had improved even further, and Vegeta swore that he would ascend further. He had to in order to defend Earth properly...

It soon turned out that Gohan was stronger and faster than Gotenks, and a crushing kick sent Gotenks into the far wall of the GR.

Gotenks recovered fast and fired a strong KI-blast at Gohan, but the demi-Saiyan just caught the blast and diminished it between his palms.

Gotenks was even more surprised than he would admit. Never had he thought that this feat was possible for Gohan.

He had thought that the older Saiyan would deflect the blast or something like that. But that he was able to simply diminish the blast showed just how strong he was...

Gohan wasted no time and cut back. He decked Gotenks with a barrage of kicks and punches, and Gotenks was not able to block all of them.

One punch that was aimed for the head came through and sent Gotenks crashing to the ground.

Now the demi-Saiyan was really angry and stressed his limits even more. He would not be beaten this easily!

"Galactica donut!" he exclaimed, and four rings of energy exited from his palm and caught Gohan in mid-air. Gotenks smiled and punched Gohan in the face with all his might.

But the older demi-Saiyan was not affected in the slightest, and Gotenks had the feeling like he had hit a solid wall of duranium.

Gohan let out a huge scream, and with another power-up he was free again.

Great, Gotenks thought, I am running awfully low here and he's not down by an inch. Hmm, gotta use the full Phantom Army!

And just that he did. At frequent intervals he spit out ghost versions of himself.

These ghosts had a KI that was as strong as its owners, and the exploded upon impact and would weaken its victim greatly. That was the theory, now to the exercise...

"Ghosts... attack!" Gotenks exclaimed.

And the ghosts obeyed. With their usual childish attitude they started to chase Gohan, but the Saiyan was just too fast for them.

Quite a few collided with each other and exploded, but they did no harm to Gohan.

Then one ghost managed to struck his foot, and exploded like a bomb. The other ghosts that had followed did the same, and a huge explosion was the result.

Oh man, I hope that one was not too heavy... Videl will kill me if something happened to him! Gotenks thought.

But there was absolutely no need to worry, for as the smoke cleared, an angry Gohan became visible.

He was engulfed in his mystical aura, and Gotenks did not see the next punch coming that put out his lights...

The next thing he registered consciously was that he was lying on the ground. And his jaw hurt like hell.

"Hey... has someone noted the license plate of the dumb truck that hit me?" he asked jokingly and sat up. Then he looked at Gohan

"Man, that is one heck of a punch you have there..."

Gohan smiled.

"You're not bad either, Gotenks..."

The latter smiled.

"Thanks, but it's obvious to me now that I've got to train more. You're stronger! But I'll get you!" he exclaimed.

Vegeta and Goku looked at each other and nodded. That was the spirit. Soon they were engaged in an intense all-on-all combat, and the workout did good to them.

Gohan nearly forgot that they had to go to Angelos at 2 p.m., but Videl came running in at noon and reminded him.

So the Saiyan and the others went to hit the showers and get some decent lunch. Sparring always made hungry...



to be continued...


== Next time: Videl and Gohan will finally tell their friends. How will they react? Stay tuned! ==

Thanks for reading! And please review!

And as always a very special thanks to my beta, who is doing a great job! Thx!


A/N: I just could not help it (or me, heh heh), I had to write a fighting scene. But this one has a reason: it is the reason for Gohans downfall in GT. We all know that the Gohan in GT was a real dork, and really, I, as a Gohan fan felt fooled once I had watched all of GT. Just why did they waste his enormous potential? HE should have been the one to achieve Super Saiyan Level Four first (not to talk of Level Three). But what did they? Level Two is good enough for him or what? Ridiculous!! Sorry, talking myself into a rant...

No, I wrote this one to show that Gohan (in his mystical state) was even stronger than Gotenks, and he grew content with his powers. And in GT he lost this ability and became a weakling. But I will SO rectify this...



REVIEWERS RESPONSES:


Son Oliver: Thanks, Bulma was for me the first choice to oversee the beginning of Videl's pregnancy. And she is such a genius that a doctoral degree in medicine is no surprise. As for Gohan and Videl finding out, due to Tootsy's information they will have to wait...


cosmictwilight: Glad that you liked it, and as Videl's baby will have all characteristics of a Saiyan (tail included) I figured it would be the best way to let Bulma oversee the first months. As for the pregnancy, that's only my point of view / idea, and yours really does not have to hide.

As for Hercule, he was at the barbecue and found out before Gohan and Videl (in chapter 2)


Elincia Nightengale: I know that all too well too... and I'm glad that you liked it!


SKC-ANIME-LOVER: The torture will come, so much is for sure. But it's starting slowly, heh...


Rose Vaughn: You're welcome. Your stories are good, and torturing Vegeta is always funny chuckles evilly
Cool that you like it!


Candy the Duck:  lost focus On which occasion again?


Saiya-jin Queen: Thank you! And no prob, you can do now. :P
Yeah, Gohan is sure in for some trouble in the next months, and I have some torturous plans for him. But he will pull trough. After all, he is a (part-)Saiyan and has his mystical abilities, too... it can't be this bad, can it?
Checked your stories and like 'em!


Megs21: hey, thanks! I am honoured (really!). Okay, we have a deal. I keep writing, and you reading (and hopefully reviewing), :D
You want a typical Chi-Chi reaction? Well, you shall get one...


GOGI: Thanks! I would love to do so, but with 4 ongoing stories and RL it's quite hard. Okay, okay, I stop whining around and try my best! Promise!


animeprincess1452: Yeah, I guess she is one of the smartest persons there are. That's why she's Videl's first choice.


Marshmellow13Dragon: Gohan will be in for trouble once the mood-swings really start, so much I can tell ya. But no sugar rush for Goten, Trunks or Gotenks yet, I'm afraid. Although sugar rushs are really something else, you get done a lot, but once they wear off... not nice.
Sarki: but did she listen? Noo... glad that you like the idea. Erasa will surely scream from delight, but Sharpie faint? grins evilly why not? As for the update, I would like to update more often, but that's rather hard to do...


Dooleys: Thanks, and you're right, bud, the baby will be a quarter-Saiyan whacks himself for stupid mistake



Looks for Tootsy and makaialexa: hope you haven't gone missing and everything's okay...

Tootsy: I could need some information on food cravings, so it would be cool if you could mail me or leave them in a review...

Makaialexa: you wanted to translate your story so I could read it...
