I've decided to remake this fic, partly because I wrote the first one when I was 12 and the punctuation, grammar, and the overall writing scheme was pretty bad. So, I'm going to resurrect this story, and, hopefully, it will be better than the original. Feel free to review, and don't hold back.

Disclaimer: I don't own anything.

The Contest(1)

Chapter 1

BBBBRRRRIIIINNGGG

Gohan entered the classroom right as the bell rang. Looking around, Gohan noticed that most of the students were missing. 'Must be a new bug going around.' Gohan was glad that, because of his Saiyan side, it was unlikely that he would catch this "little" bug.

Gohan took his normal seat. 'Seems like Erasa and Sharpener are both absent. Looks like Videl is missing, too. I hope she caught the bug, her pestering can get really annoying sometimes.'

"All right class, settle down, settle down. Well, it appears that we have quite a few people missing today. I hope it's just a bug going around." The teacher started his lesson, and, like always, Gohan started to doze off. He probably would have slept through the whole class, but someone had rudely interrupted his nap time.

"Sorry I'm late, teach. Some bozo tried to blow himself up at the bank down the street," Videl explained, obviously out of breath. "As long as you were helping our city, it's okay with me."

So, Videl proceeded to take her seat next to Gohan, who was obviously a little peeved at her. "Hey Gohan." Gohan grumbled at the greeting, and continued with his nap. 'Well, someone's panties are in a bunch.' And with that, Videl started to take her on nap.

OMMGG!11! Wake up!11! It's leik time to go to you guy's next class!11!

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

'What a weird bell. I wonder what happened to our regular one?(2)' Gohan was interrupted in his thoughts by Videl's shouting. "Son Gohan! Are you even listening to me! I've been yelling at you for the past two-"

"Calm down Videl. Everyone's starting to stare now." Gohan explained.

"Fine I'll calm down, but only because you're starting to listen now, not because you asked me to." Videl, being her stubborn, prideful self, stated.

"Now, what was it you wanted to talk to me about?" Gohan asked, while they continued walking to their next class.

"Well, I was wondering if you were going to enter 'The Contest"

"What contest?"

"The contest that's ending this coming Thursday."

"Ohhhh. You mean the one where the person who wins gets to live in your house for an entire week."

"No, I mean the one where the winner gets hanged." Sometimes sarcasm works and sometimes is doesn't.

"Really? I haven't heard of that contest? When did they start it?" And of course, Gohan, with his immensely thick head, wouldn't detect the sarcasm.

"Gohan, you're a freaking idiot, y'know that?"

"Gee, thanks Videl. What a wonderful comment."

"For a person that can't sense sarcasm, you sure can use it well. Anyway, back on topic. Are you going to enter that contest?"

"I guess so. I don't see why I shouldn't." He seemed unsure of himself

"You are? That's great! You're, like, the only person I can stand in this school. I hope you win," Gohan blushed at this,"that way, I can school you in some fighting techniques I just picked up."

'If only you knew Videl, if only.' Gohan thought

So from there, they went their separate ways, Gohan going to Calculus, Videl going to Bio.

Alright, that's only the beginning. Sorry it's so short. I'm still trying to sort out some plot issues. So, leave some feedback.
