She smiled lightly, happy about which of the students she got to meet first. and whoever is with them… She remembered how the other person was talking. She heard the opening of one door at a time an wondered if there was only one person there. After a while she was positive that there was. Wondering if the girl had asked the rhetorical question to herself, she got slightly confused before she chided herself again on the fact that she was here for a reason, and everything that she was thinking about wasn't it. She began to go up the stairs slowly, and quietly, positive that the girl hadn't seen her.
Opening the door just as quietly and closing it without the girl noticing, she watched her for a moment before clearing her throat, causing the girl to look at her quickly.
"Looking for me?"

Chapter Twenty-Two: Girl's Day In
-
Videl looked at the woman in front of her, shock written all over her. Wide eyes, open mouth, oh yeah, shock was definitely there. The older woman looked at the other girl before turning to her companion.
If she was shocked at all by seeing a ghost, she didn't show it, just nodded at her. The ghost - Emily - obviously, nodded back.
Chichi looked over at Videl again.
"Do you have any idea where your classmates are? Because there is no way in hell they're all here!" Videl opened her mouth and shut it again, once again shocked at the suddenness of the question.
"Um…last I remembered they were at this old woman's house…" Videl was able to mumble out, eyes like a deers as she stared at Chichi. Chichi crossed her arms and shook her head angrily.
"If it's Baba, I don't care HOW long she's been on this planet! She's gonna get it!" She fumed silently, tapping her toe urgently on the ground. "But only once I get back to our time - wouldn't want to change time at all." Videl looked at the woman, wondering what she should do.
Chichi turned to look at her. "Do you know where Gohan is? Is he at the old woman's house too or…?" Videl shook her head. "No? What do you mean by that." Videl stared at the woman, still in shock. It took her about a minute and a half and to answer.
"He…he was with me but then we got split up and I don't know where he is now…" Videl said quietly before shaking her head and snapping out of it. She began to glare at Chichi.
"Hey, what do mean by 'wouldn't want to change time'?" Chichi looked at the girl as though she were insane.
"Sweety," She said kindly. "Please don't tell me you haven't figured all of this out yet because if you haven't…" Videl put her hand up, glaring even more harshly at the woman in front of her.
"First off, NEVER call me 'sweety'. Secondly, please don't treat me like I'm a freaking idiot! I've had a bad trip, so far Mrs. Son! First I was happy, I got to go to this place without my dad and get out of school, but NO! My dad follows me here with our freaking insane class who are probably still at that old woman's house, having the time of their lives being around the 'Great Hercule' and then Gohan and I once again get kicked out of THAT place, and end up here! Where we're like ghosts to people and the past is the future and the future is the past and I meet ol' lovely bag of bones and we follow her to the forest, then she THROWS me back here basically and now you're trying to tell me I haven't gotten this all figured out?? I think I have this pretty well figured out Mrs. Son!" Chichi looked at her as though she was bored, getting Videl even more angry than she previously was.
"Save the drama, young lady. We've got my son and your class to get out of this mess!" Chichi began to go up the stairs that Videl and Emily had just come down. She turned to look at them.
"Well?" She asked. "Are you coming or not?"

"Miles…dance with me?" Lenora was standing in front of Gohan, holding her bony hand out to him. For some reason, he didn't have the illusion on her now and he really wished she'd put it back on.
It was freaking him out, the bones I mean.
Lenora had asked him about eight times to dance with in the span of exactly sixteen minutes. Every two minutes, on the dot, if they weren't dancing (as Gohan thought it'd stop if they were actually dancing) she'd say it again, the same as she had done before. And like every time she did it, Gohan would politely refuse, saying that his feet were sore…not that they really were.
"Miles…dance with me?" She asked again. Gohan rolled his eyes.
"I'd rather not Lenora, I hurt my pinky." He said sarcastically. Her posture didn't change, just her eyes, as they did before, looking slightly cloudly. He shook his head.
He couldn't take much more of this, and that freaking question was getting so freaking annoying! Maybe it'd be worth it though, to do one dance…
"Miles…dance with me." Taking a deep breath, Gohan gave his answer.
"Sure, Lenora."

Chichi nodded as Videl told her everything she could remember. Emily was floating nearby.
Emily was giving Chichi the creeps. She didn't know why but she was so familiar to her…She looked at her closely when Videl finished telling her story.
"Alright, that all makes sense…" She nodded, then turned to Emily. "I'm sorry, this may sound very informal of me, but do I know you?" Emily looked at her and shrugged.
She was confused like everyone else was at this point.
Videl stepped in at this point.
"You might." She said softly. Chichi looked at her, and Videl did her best to explain this. "Emily is…" She waved at her and Chichi nodded in understanding. "Well…she may be, your um…" Chichi shook her head.
"Out with it girl."
"Your great-grandmother." Chichi's eyes widened as did Emily's as they turned to stare at each other. It didn't take long for her to decide it was true.
"Yes…that could very easily be why I recognized her…All the portraits of our family, I'm positive she would've had one." Chichi nodded.
Suddenly, light strings of music began to come from the ballroom again. Before Chichi could investigate, Videl pulled her down.
"Oh, don't worry about that, that happens every now and then." Chichi shook her head, standing up again.
"Don't you recognize this song, Videl?" Videl looked at her like she was insane.
"Do you expect me to even stay awake in class for classics?" Chichi shook her head.
"That's just it Videl, it isn't a classic." Looking bemused, Videl took another chance at listening to the music that was flowing from downstairs. After a minute her brow furrowed before looking up at Chichi.
"Isn't that…-"
"-Gohan's favorite."
