Author's Note: And now here is the last chapter of the GD saga (Gohan's Death). After this we go onto the Journey saga. Yes, I named the sagas of my story


Chapter Nineteen- Gohan Who?

Chichi leaned against the door frame of the newly built house that Mirai Trunks and Goku had so kindly offered to rebuild. They sat spraying themselves down with the hose to wash off the building morning sun that had tanned them. It had been two weeks since Goten's kidnapping. They were all on the lookout for signs of Cell or Haji or anyone else connected to Goten's disappearance. Videl had even put out missing posters all over Satan city but no one knew him. Mirai Trunks gazed over to where Gohan was.

Gohan sat by the creek flinging a occasional pebble into it watching the water ripple… He closed his eyes and dipped his hand gentle into the cold wet stream. It calmed his emotions and relaxed his mind. He loved everything in nature. It was all beautiful and wonderful. Even the special bugs that Goten picked up to show him. Or what he used to pick up…

Gohan let out a deep sigh. How he wished he could have saved Goten… He didn't understand why Cell would have wanted with his brother anyway. Although, maybe it was all Gohan's fault. Since Cell couldn't get revenge on Gohan he would kill of his little brother. Yes. That was probably what he wanted.

"Beautiful, isn't it?" Mirai Trunks smiled taking a seat on the soft grass beside Gohan.

Gohan glanced up at Trunks. His purple hair was darkened by the water and lay limp by his ears. He wore a yellow shirt with Capsule Corp. written across it in blue letters and blue shorts. Gohan on the other hand wore a baggy blue shirt with a dark blue windbreaker and jeans. Gohan stretched out his legs and turned back to the creek nodding. The wind pushed past their faces blowing their hair with its dance.

Gohan tossed a rock into the creek watching the water ripple.

"Look at how that tiny rock made all those ripples," Gohan sighed. "I feel as that is what I have done. I am one little problem that cause all that aching ripples to the world."

Mirai Trunks thought for a moment and then replied, "But look the ripples stop. It's all better again."

"Yes," Gohan said softly, "But the rock is still there."

Mirai Trunks did not know how to reply to that. Trunks turned and watched the afternoon sun set in the sky. Gohan did not speak for the rest of the time they sat there.


Chichi had just broken down into another fit of tears so Goku had to escort her to the kitchen so they could talk it out. Still deeply upset that just when Gohan came back that Goten was kidnapped, the only thing to make her happy was the way Goku remodeled the kitchen and bought her all sorts of new pans and pots. Krillen was just visiting for the afternoon while 18 went out shopping for clothes, he sat watching TV with Videl who was trying at all costs to avoid her father. Krillen got quite angry with Goku asking when he was going to thell him that Cell had returned and so on and so on. TV seemed to have shut him up.

Krillen switched it off Sailor Moon since Videl thought it was dresses were offending. 'You know men made that cartoon cause of how long those legs are!'

The channel had fallen upon a news broadcast station that was in the process of having it's 7th year celebration free of Cell. Krillen let out a snort of laughter upon seeing it.

"I remember that." Krillen pointed out to Videl, "Cell came right up through the channels and to this very station. I don't know if you could remember but it was almost funny on how he went through every station like that."

Krillen switched the channel and what met their eyes made them bug out.

"GOKU! GOHAN! TRUNKS! EVERYBODY! COME AND SEE THIS! YOU WON'T BELIEVE IT!"

Gohan and Mirai Trunks rushed into the house while Chichi and Goku dashed out of the kitchen. Chichi was still clinging onto a handkerchief.

Cell was on the exercise channel and slowly making his way up to the tops of the broadcast station. Krillen flipped the channel with each floor he went up in a almost zombie like way. Everyone had their eyes glued to the screen not daring to believe it. Gohan was clenching his fists so hard they were shaking but no one noticed.

"And so with this special Cell-free day…" The announcer began but he was cut short by Cell blasting his way from the floor. Cell landed next to the guy behind the desk and smiled happily down at him.

"I'm back, Earthlings."

Cell motioned for the man to hand him the mike which the guy gave up willingly.

"You do not have to worry, people of earth," Cell smiled. "I am not here to terrorize you like I did before. I am merely here to make a deal with a person that destroyed me."

All eyes fell upon Gohan except for Videl who was staring at the TV with worry.

"Oh no! Dad!"


Hercule watched the TV from up in his attic. He blinked at those words and let out a deep sigh of relief.

"It's only Gohan he wants. Thank goodness."


"Y-you mean Hercule?" The camera boy whispered.

Cell eyed him with his purple gaze, "No. Gohan."


Gohan clenched the couch with his shaking fists. He closed his eyes and opened them again not daring to believe this was happening. Now everyone knew… He was going to be swamped by reporters for years.

"You got to be kidding… Gohan?!" Videl muttered in disbelief turning about to the other Z-fighters. "Tell me he is joking… Gohan. You didn't defeat Cell, did you? You couldn't have been anymore than twelve at the time?"

Goku gazed over at his son's face who was going pale.

"I'm sorry I lied to you before, Videl," Gohan looked down to the ground embarrassed.

"Hey, if I defeated Cell I wouldn't have kept it hidden as long as Gohan did," Krillen commented.

"You would have kept it for how long Krillen… an hour?" Mirai Trunks joked.

"More like half."

All the Z-fighters laughed except for Gohan, and Videl who was in shock.

"I knew it! I knew it! All this time, It couldn't have been my dad! I make's so much sense now!" Videl cried out silencing the laughter, "You were that golden haired boy! The one who fought Cell! Oh my gosh! That explains everything!"

Gohan grinned sheepishly and rubbed the back of his neck, "Yeah… heh."

"But why did you allow my dad to have all the credit?"

"I already told you," Gohan muttered. "Because I wanted to save my family from the spotlight."

"Or more like yourself," Krillen smirked.

"We just want to be left to our normal lives."

"Well, you can kiss that goodbye," Krillen joshed.

"Krillen, you aren't helping!" Gohan snapped.

"Sorry, Gohan," Krillen snickered.

Videl shook her head and then smiled.

"Thanks for the truth, Gohan." Videl smiled, "And for leaving my father his fame."

"Welcome."


There was a long silence on the station.

"Who's Gohan?" The camera boy asked, "Is that Hercule's code name?"

Cell didn't feel like getting into detail with these morons. He turned back to the camera…


"Gohan?! Like I can't believe it! Our Gohan?" Eraza cried dropping the popcorn she was eating the floor.

Sharpener blinked in equal shock.

"How many secrets can one kid have?"


"Gohan. It seems have something you want. Your little brother, Goten," Cell smiled as if he could see Gohan's angry face, "You can have him if you play a little game with me. Similar to the one we played before. I shall call this one the journey. The rules will be explained to you there. First you must come to our New Moon. If you refuse…"

Cell turned to the nearest newscaster…


"NO!" Gohan screamed lunging at the screen.

It took Krillen, Mirai Trunks, and Goku to hold him back to so they could hear the rest of what Cell would say…


Cell blasted the man into dust leaving a huge gaping hole were the man stood once before. Cell smiled and turned back to the camera.

"Little Goten won't even have that much left. You have two weeks."

Cell was just about the leave but instead turned back to the camera with a huge grin.

"You may have won the battle, Gohan. But you are losing the war…"


With that, the TV burst into flames. All eyes fell upon Gohan would was looking at Trunks. Trunks lowered his hand and glared about at everyone else in the room.

"Come on. We are going to Bulma for a Space Ship."
