Chapter 2: Scold, Storm, Spar
"So….we will let Gohan off with a warning…but if another incident like this is repeated, a severe punishment will be in order. Thank you for coming, Mr. and Mrs. Son…..now, Gohan will be suspended for the rest of the day but luckily, no tests will be held on the first day, so Gohan's grades are safe…for now. You all may go." said the cruel principal sternly.
Gohan, Goku and Chi-Chi all nodded vigorously. They all stood and the principal directed the way to the exit. The two parents thanked the principal for notifying them before leaving the school grounds. The principal watched them walk away then sighed, before coming back in.
"WHAT WERE YOU THINKING, GOHAN!" began Chi-Chi in a dangerous tone. Gohan and Goku both sighed as Chi-Chi began her rantings. "THIS IS DEFINITELY GOING TO GO ON YOUR PERMANENT RECORD! AND ON THE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL! NO SPARRING FOR A MONTH!" and Gohan nodded in reply. If he tried to fight back, he would only land himself in more trouble and probably a longer punishment, so he kept quiet.
Goku encircled a manly arm around Gohan and smiled at Gohan sympathetically. Goku was never good with discipline, so Gohan went to Goku whenever he had problems. Gohan smiled back at his father and they all went home.
Later that day,
Gohan groaned lazily as he stared out his window. Outside, rain was heavily pouring but two figures seemed to be training non-stop. Goku and Goten. Gohan sighed for the third time throughout the 4 straight hours that he had been studying. It was only the start of his one month long punishment but he was already eager to spar. Due to his Saiyan instincts, he might literally die without sparring.
Outside,
"HA! HE! HEE! HIYA! HU! HU! HIIIYAAA!" Goten cried as he threw numerous blows towards his father. Goku, being the martial arts expert that he is, avoided each blow with ease, though the rain was making it harder to see. Not long, Goten's reign of combos ended as he slipped clumsily and dropped down onto the wet grass beneath.
"Goten, you ok?" asked Goku worriedly. He raised Goten up to his feet and both teamed up in cleaning off Goten's dirty clothes. He was now muddy but they continued on, they would just clean up afterwards.
"I'm fine Dad, but let's work on some Ki Training!" suggested Goten excitedly, his small profile hopping up and down. Goku laughed then nodded.
They walked a few miles then began practicing ki shots on some abandoned rocks.
Back in the house,
More painful hours passed as information seemed to stop entering Gohan's exhausted mind.
Finally deciding that there would be no chance he could push all the information Chi-Chi made him read, Gohan plopped onto his bed and began to slowly drift into sleep.
He was however awoken by a slippery hand on his bare arm. He was wearing his usual violet training gi.
"Gohan…wake up, son…" and Gohan did as he easily recognized his father's voice. His eyes fluttered open as he turned to his side to see a shivering Goku.
"Dad…what are you doing…" asked Gohan in between laughter. He sat up as his vision cleared and Goku began to pull him to his window. He opened it and the rain was now stronger than ever. Goku was still silent as he began to jump out. Gohan was confused but he followed suite. Goku crouched down then moved and Gohan did the same. They walked a few yards and found themselves under the same tree Gohan had nearly destroyed as a child. They sat down, leaning against it for support. It's shade covering them from the storm.
"So, why'd you bring me here, dad?" asked Gohan at last as he relaxed under the tree. He was a bit wet from the rain but he didn't mind, he was a Saiyan so he had a high resistance from sicknesses, and so did Goku and Goten.
Goku remained silent for awhile before answering. He was watching and listening intently to the raindrops as they fell onto the ground. Due to his Saiyan abilities, he could hear the raindrops louder than normal Humans, if he wanted to.
"Well, I felt bad for leaving you with your mother and I knew you were jealous of me and Goten cause we were sparring….so, I decided to sneak you out the house while your mother was cooking dinner. Goten liked the idea anyways when I told him during our training. So, here we are…" explained Goku, his eyes still closed.
Gohan nodded although Goku didn't see. They continued resting beneath the large tree until the rain subsided.
Goku then got Gohan to spar with him. They began at a slow pace, throwing weak fists and energy blasts. But as they continued, they decided to heat up the battle.
Hours passed and the training went on….
Goku and Gohan were in mid-air, throwing a series of combos to one another while avoiding each other's attacks. The sparring had gotten fiercer as both Saiyans charged up to Super Saiyan levels. Their golden hair flared furiously as their powerlevels increased as each second passed. Goku had the match in his favor considering the strong blows he had inflicted on Gohan throughout the battle. Scars and bruises were now all over their bodies, more on Gohan's since Goku was much stronger.
Gohan tried to end the battle and threw a full-blown fist towards Goku but to his dismay, Goku quickly teleported behind and fired a powerful ki shot, sending Gohan down to the ground. Smoke emitted and as soon as it cleared, Gohan stirred and stood up, while beneath him was a massive crater.
"You…you win, Dad." Gohan managed to say. He limped towards their tree and sat down, breathing heavily. The rain had now completely subsided. Goku looked worried and gently flew down and sat beside his son.
"You ok?" asked Goku. Gohan smiled while looking at the horizon.
"Yeah…..I put in too much force in that one…." replied Gohan and Goku nodded in reply. They sat there, doing nothing but sightseeing for hours.
Night same came,
Goku had finally decided to ask Gohan what was bothering him. Gohan, hesitating at first, surrendered and explained to his dad what really happened at school. After Gohan's tale, Goku grinned slyly and Gohan raised an eyebrow curiously at his father.
"Guess little Gohan's growing up. Sounds to me is your falling in love!" teased Goku in a baby-like tone. Gohan looked absurdly at his father.
"No way! I just wanna be friends with her, cause she's real awesome in fighting, for a human." Gohan rejected Goku's answer. The thought had never crossed his mind…but now that he thought about it….
Gohan wiggled his head, pushing the thought aside, he replied again,
"Look, let's go home, I don't wanna talk about this…." And Gohan pushed himself up and began walking swiftly towards his home. He thought that would be a good way to escape the subject….and it was.
Goku grinned at his son's fleeing figure. He sighed and thought as he began to follow Gohan home….
Heh, just like me when I was young….rejecting love like it was a terrible creature……
Sorry if it's too short, guys, but please review! And for the OOCness, sorry I had to make it like that otherwise the big storyline later wouldn't be great….
