work on it, hehe. I hope this one is longer then the last!
Oh yes and . . .
Amy Hirosaki -
This really isn't about your review, even though it helped me out a bit . . . anyways! I would like to tell you this, I checked your profile and I'd like to thank you for putting me on it but three words: I'M A GIRL! You said I was a "he" and a "him"! *cries* I don't understand how you could think I was a guy, but I forgive you. Hehe. I just had to tell you that. Sorry if that came out like I was really mad at you Amy, but well, it's sorta embarrassing. I'm too young to be called a guy! LOL, later.

Chap 13, Secret Revealed
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Frieza smiled evilly down at Gohan where he was locked down against the wall. "Don't expect to get out of those chains; after all, they were your own invention. Oh, what's the surprised look for? We found them in you and your grandfather's little lab. Thank you, they've become quite useful as you can see" Frieza sneered, sweeping his clawed hand at the chains. He sat in his hovercraft and lowered himself till he was face to face with Gohan's enraged face. Frieza smirked and spat into Gohan's face.
"You stupid monkeys, you are all idiots. Giving me worlds to rule over and sell, did you really think I was on your side?" he asked. Frieza smiled wickedly before continuing. "You all have become too smart from being in my presence for so long. You and your little monkey friends are coming close to a rebellion, so I've decide that I could wipe out the entire population, letting you watch as I kill everyone of them. You are half-saiyan and half- human, so I'm going to use that to my own power. Your first half, Saiyan, will be the first you will see die, then your family members be tortured and die right before your eyes, wondering why you won't help them. Then I'll take the humans, your other half. They are weak, not as much fun to torture as Saiyans, but it'll be like tearing both of your heritages apart until you are the only one left" Frieza said, drawing out his conclusion.
"Then you will die, slower then the rest, seeing all the faces of all the people that you weren't able to save! Their pitiful screams will run through your head, their begging voices wishing for mercy will reach your ears again and you'll hate yourself, more then you ever may have before. Stupid half-saiyan, the only reason we didn't make you a slave is because of your strength. You have a better head on your shoulders then the others, brain and brawn. I would've picked you out of all the rest to be by my side while I conquered the world, but no, you had to become little Mr. Hero to all those pathetic humans, that stupid human mother of yours softened you! And to think you could have been a great warrior! You are waste, saiyan and human trash!" Frieza brought his hand back and flung it across Gohan's face. "I WILL enjoy this"
Gohan watched him float away in his hovercraft chair, a look of pure enmity on his face. "I will kill you Frieza, I will" he vowed.

I stared out at the night sky, waiting for Gohan to return. Why wasn't he back yet? He'd been gone for more then 6 hours. Clutching my legs to my chest, I rested my head on my knees, sighing. Why was it that I suddenly feared for him, wanted him to be alright, wanted to see his face again, his smile, even when he was a Super Saiyan? I could feel my heart squeeze as I remembered the way he had touched me now and then . . .
Oh my gosh, what am I thinking?!
A blush crawled over my cheeks as my thoughts betrayed me. I heard someone brushing the grass beside me. I looked over to Chilia as she sat down beside me. Giving me a soft smile, her blue eyes turned out towards the sky, as did my own.
"How are you doing, Videl?" she asked me softly. I smiled weakly, lazily closing my eyes.
"I'm fine, ma'am" I replied politely.
"Oh please, don't call me ma'am; it just makes me feel so . . . old! Now come on, what's on your mind? Perhaps . . . Gohan might be on your mind?" she asked slyly, smiling widely at me. I could feel my face heat up as it turned a deep crimson. What is she? A mind reader?
"E-e-excuse me?!" I said hastily, trying not to look suspicious.
"Alright, come on Videl. There aren't any guys around; it's just me and you, the girls. Now, do you like Gohan?" Chilia pushed, now turning to me on her knees. I folded my legs, Indian style, out in front of me and cupped my hands in the small area between my folded legs, staring at my feet.
"Oh sure, he's a nice guy, not rude or anything, especially for a Saiyan!" I said quickly. Chilia rolled her eyes and swatted my shoulder.
"You know what I mean Videl"
"My lips are sealed" I promised, holding my head high. Chilia sighed and looked back at the stars and I joined her in the star gazing.
A kind smile spread across her face and she seemed practically oblivious to the fact that I was sitting next to her and started pouring words from her mouth into my ears. "I remember when Gohan was little that whenever we looked at the stars he would tell me about how he was one day going to go to one of those planets, meet new people and make new friends, and to learn more about their culture and life. He never really understood that when those children were sent to planets, they were supposed to destroy them, not make allies with them. I didn't know how to disappoint him. He was so eager to make friends and never understood why so many were disgusted with him . . . because what he was" she reminisced. I stared at her. How would she know about his child life?
"Chilia . . . how do you know this?" I ask and Chilia gives me a startled look, then smiles warmly. She reached out and cupped my cheek. I didn't know my mother as long as I've wanted to and Chilia seems to be treating me with the tenderness my mother had, at least what I can remember.
"Videl, I've known Gohan a long time. You could say I knew him before anyone else. He would kick so hard" I stared at her, my eyes widening to the size of saucers.
"Uh, a-are you his . . ." I stopped, not knowing if I'd be able to say it. She sighed.
"Yes, I'm his mother, ChiChi"
"B-but, how? I saw you die! Frieza killed you!" I exclaimed, jumping to my feet in my surprise. ChiChi nodded and shudder.
"That was the worst day of my life" I could see her shudder at the memory. "Oh and yes, I did die. Painfully"-another shudder-"the way I came back, I can't tell you without Goku's permission"
"Does Goku know, and Gohan?" I asked slowly.
"Goku figured it out, in only the way a husband could tell. And Gohan . . . no he doesn't. I don't look the same, I'm older. I'm not as young as I was when Gohan was about 10. I want to tell him . . . but I wonder if he'll believe me" ChiChi said hopefully.
"What?! You have got to tell Gohan! You have no idea how much he's beating himself up about not being able to keep you alive. Every time you get brought up in the conversation he's always talking about it being his fault and he should've been able to help you! Why else do you think he keeps on raging on about needing to get stronger? He wants to be able to protect everyone he loves!" I shouted at the top of my lungs and as I finished my speech I sucked in a long breath. ChiChi looked up to me and smiled softly.
"Like you?" she asked quietly and I stared at her, my mouth agape.
"E-excuse m-me?!" I cried. "G-gohan does not love me!"
"That's not what I've heard . . ." she mused
"And what have you heard?" I asked suspiciously, narrowing my eyes.
"Oh, my little Goten has a big mouth. He's told me of when my Gohan kissed you" ChiChi explained, a smile growing over her face. "You like my son!"
"And what if I do?!" I shouted before covering my mouth with my hands as my face turned blood red. I jumped to my feet and ran towards the caves as fast as my feet could carry me, leaving ChiChi behind me.
Why had a said that? Do I actually like Gohan? I mean sure, he's tall, handsome, buff, sweet, funny, rather naïve at times . . . oh gosh what am I saying! I do like him! My eyes rounded. I'd never liked anyone before. Never anything serious. I felt my heart squeeze as Gohan's name passed my lips unconsciously.
I looked up and walked forward as I saw two figures floating downwards to land on the grass, stirring it around them. One looked like a Goku with a red strip of cloth tied around his forehead and a scar on his cheek, eyes narrowed angrily and a tail whipping about viciously. The other was held by the collar of his gear, looking down mournfully with a head of black pointed hair that stuck up forward and on the back of his head. Goku, Vegeta, Trunks, Goten, and Bulma looked at the scarier Goku expectantly. He scanned their faces and then looked at my face and said plainly:
"Frieza has Gohan"

Wouldja look at that! I got a chapter up! Okay, let's see what range of excuses I have this time. Okay school started and I've had like four projects and only gotten one of them done! I also hurt my hand when I was climbing over something; I fell and heard it click. Oh and I just needed a good push and ya'll all have been pushing me so far that I fell off the cliff, caught a crevice and dropped.
^_^ Ya'll probably hate me a lot right now because it'll probably take me a long time to get the next chapter up!
Oh yes and . . .
