Breaking Chaos
Claimer of the Dis- That's me!
Chapter 6: Revealed
Videl stood next to Gohan and Erasa as they watched Sharpener speed off in his car at the end of the school day. Apparently he had to meet someone and was in a rush to do so.
Gohan turned and began walking away, and started down the sidewalk.
"Hey wait up! Yeah! I'm talking to you Gohan!" Videl yelled as she ran up to him with Erasa trailing behind. "Are you walking home? Because I can give you a lift in my copter if you need a ride."
"No thanks, I don't need a ride. I just feel like taking a walk. My mom was taking my little brother to a friends house today, and last night she made me promise to pick him up after school. He isn't expecting me to bring him home for another hour, so I was just going to walk for a little bit before I went over there."
"Ah, I see. Well, I've got to get home, so I'd better jet. See ya later Gohan!"
Videl pulled a capsule out of her pocket, and Gohan frowned at something.
"What's that beeping sound?"
Videl paused. "I don't hear anything."
"I heard it earlier in school today too, it's kind of a static sounding beep, and it's really quiet."
Videl suddenly opened her eyes wide, and snapped her wrist up to her eyes. She pressed a button on her watch and held it up to her ear.
"Vid-….there's…at…-otel-…hurr-! -el?…you…-ere? –idel?"
"Crap! The battery is dying! The police is trying to contact me, but I have no idea what he's saying!"
"It sounded like something about a hotel to me." Gohan offered.
"Yeah! The Satan Grand Plaza! That's been hit up a few times! It's a really fancy and expensive place! I'll go check it out! See ya guys!"
"Be careful Videl!" Erasa shouted after Videl as she flew away.
"So Gohan, do you-…Gohan?" Erasa stared at where Gohan had been just a few seconds ago. She spun around looking for any sign of him. "Gohan?"
Meanwhile, Gohan disguised in his alter identity as the Gold Fighter, was flying under Videl's jet helicopter, since he wasn't too sure where this 'Satan Grand Plaza' place was. When they were in range of the scene, Gohan deviated from Videl's current course, and veered down to land amongst the cops.
"Gold Fighter! Man am I glad to see you!" The police chief shouted as he made his way over to Gohan. "I called Videl, so she should be here to help any minute now."
"Chief! What's the situation?" Videl called as she made her was through the crowd.
"Oh good, you're here!" The policeman grabbed her arm, and pulled her next to the Gold Fighter. "This just started a little while ago so we don't know much about what is going on yet. What we do know, is that there were a bunch of gang members stationed inside, and they have just started taking people's jewelry and then making then hostages so we don't barge in on them. They also have someone from your school as a hostage, and they're threatening to drop him off the roof if you go in." The policeman said, as he pointed to the roof of the tall building. Sure enough, they could make out a human form being dangled off the side of the building.
"What are we going to do then! That person's life is more valuable than the jewelry they're stealing, but we can't just let them get away with it!"
"I have an idea."
Videl jumped slightly at the sound of the Gold Fighters voice. She looked up, signaling for him to continue.
He quickly explained his plan. Videl's smile grew bigger and bigger as he explained what they would do.
"Ready?" Gohan asked.
Videl nodded. "Ready as anything."
"Go!"
The two ran inside the main doors of the hotel, and were immediately attacked. The task of knocking out everyone in the lobby was speedily accomplished. Another gaggle of people thundered down the stairs. Before they attacked, the leader of the small group drew a walkie-talkie to his mouth and relayed the information to whoever his superior was.
"Listen up!" The man announced. "If you keep going, we'll drop your little boyfriend off the roof, and then start killing everyone else we have hostage!"
The plan was going exactly as planned.
"What! I don't have a boyfriend!" Videl screeched.
The man smirked. "Yeah right, we've been watching you. You hang around that blondie all the time. We tricked him into coming here, and now we have you right where we want you."
"Sharpner? You took Sharpner! You…you…bas-" Videl was cut off by a strong hand holding her back.
"Videl! Calm down!" The Gold Fighter said without even looking at her. "You know what to do." Videl scowled at him, and let out a growl at being restrained. She supposed she had to go with the stupid plan the stupid Goldy man made up. Nevermind the fact she had been perfectly content with it not even five minutes ago. This was personal now. Sharpner may be a jerk sometimes, but he was still her friend. She wanted to take these guys out now!
Videl collected herself, and stood up straight. Gohan took his hand away from her, and she relaxed into a smirk. "Oh really. Well then, that's just too bad for Sharpner, because we are taking you down no matter what!" Videl internally cringed at what she was saying. It was the plan though, and if she wanted everyone to come out of this alive, it was the best thing to do.
"Fine, we'll see how much you really care about your little boyfriend." The man brought the radio to his mouth again. "Drop him." He smirked at Videl, and then frowned to see her confidently smirking right back at him. His frown grew even deeper and then his eyes widened, realizing the Gold Fighter was nowhere in sight.
Videl raised an eyebrow and dropped into her fighting stance. "Bring it."
"Get her!" The man screamed. He stayed in the back, watching as all of his men were being tossed around like salad. Finally, he was the only one left in the lobby, and Videl stepped on the unconscious men as she walked over to him.
"No! Stay back! There's a bomb on one of the floors and I'm not afraid to blow it!"
Videl stopped and looked at him as if trying to determine if he was lying or not. Before she even moved though, the man whipped a black box out of a pocked in his vest and smacked the big button with his palm. He sneered at her. "You have 5 minutes left. You can either take me down, or get out of here yourself and warn all those people outside.
"You're bluffing." Videl said confidently.
Suddenly, more men came rushing down the stairs. Videl caught some of their yells as they scurried past her out of the building. Her face suddenly paled. He wasn't lying. The leader ran out of the building behind the other men, and Videl raced after him.
"Get everyone away from here! There's a bomb!" She screamed as she emerged. The police jumped in their cars and drove away with some of the criminals in custody. The crowd panicked and scattered at the announcement. Videl looked up and shielded her eyes against the sun as she scanned for any sign of the Gold Fighter or Sharpener on the roof. She had to warn them. A thought suddenly occurred to her. She ran over to her copter and yanked out her cell phone as she started lifting off. She called Sharpner's cell and prayed that he would answer.
"Videl!"
"Sharpner! Where are you! There's a bomb in the building!"
"What! I followed the Gold Fighter down to the 10th floor!"
"Tell him! There are only 3 minutes left!"
Videl heard some mumbling on the other end.
"Videl! The Gold Fighter says to get away, and he'll take care of everything here!"
"No way! I'm not leaving you guys!" She heard some noises again, and suddenly the Gold Fighter's voice was shouting at her.
"Get out of here!"
Then the line went dead. He must have hung up.
Videl directed her jet copter several hundred feet from the hotel, but refused to leave. Suddenly, the unconscious criminals were being piled up outside for about 30 seconds. She didn't even see then being taken outside, it just seemed as if they had appeared there. Videl glanced down at her watch. 15 seconds left, and no sign of them. She began the countdown to herself once it hit 5 seconds.
5…
Still no sign of them
4…
Wait! What was that!
3…
Is that the Gold Fighter flying away?
2…
Oh my gosh! He's got the bomb!
1…
No! He's not gonna make it!
0…
A bright orange and yellow fireball lit up the sky high above Satan City. Videl frantically scanned the skies for any sign of the mysterious warrior. She landed her copter, and started running inside the hotel to see if Sharpner was alright. When she was only a few feet from the doors, she heard a familiar voice yell to her, and she whipped around.
"Hi Videl! Did ya miss me?"
The Gold Fighter had his arms linked under Sharpener's arms, and he was slowly dropping from the roof. Once Sharpner's feet touched the cement, Gohan let go and gently floated back a few feet.
"Sharpner! You're ok!" Videl ran over and hugged him tightly.
Sharpner raised his eyebrows in surprise, but quickly grew a huge grin and put his arms around Videl. He started moving his hands down her back, but Videl realized what he was doing. She socked him in the face hard enough to make him topple backwards. "Stupid pervert!" She yelled. Videl stomped over to where Gohan was. She punched him in the chest, but to no avail. "Stupid firefly! Making me get all worried!" It was then that she noticed the scorched clothes.
Videl stuttered and stepped back from him. "How did you get out of that! I saw the bomb blow up while you were flying!"
"Just lucky I guess."
"No really. What happened."
"At the last second I tossed the bomb up and then flew away, ok?"
"Fine." Videl stared at him. "I don't need your help Goldie Locks! So you don't have to show up anymore. What happened today was a one-time deal."
"Whatever, I'm still going to show up to help you. You need help sometimes, and you know it. Do you really want to risk peoples lives for the sake of your pride?"
"…"
"I didn't think so."
"Fine, I will let you help me, but only on one condition."
"And what would that condition be Miss Satan?"
"You have to tell me who you really are firefly! And you have to tell me who really won the Cell Games!"
"If I'm counting correctly, that would be two conditions. I really don't have to agree to any conditions you know."
"Fine, just tell me who you are!"
Gohan looked surprised. "Really? I thought you'd pick the Cell Games for sure. Why do you want to know who I am more?"
Videl looked at the ground. "Because you" she mumbled something else.
"Because I, what?"
Videl drew in a deep breath and shouted. "Because you can help me, even though I don't want to admit it, and never will after this moment, and I need to know how to contact you so you can come help since I have my communicator watch, and you don't! There! Are you happy! I said it!"
Gohan looked surprised again. "Wow. Thank you. Truly, I wasn't expecting that Videl."
Videl just sighed in frustration. "Whatever firefly. Are you gonna tell me or not!"
"Well not out here!"
"Go in my copter then!"
Sharpner came up looking sheepish. And bruised.
"Um, Videl? Those guys sort of stole my car, so could you um, you know, take me home?"
"Fine! Go!" She yelled as she shoved him in with the Gold Fighter.
She hopped into the pilots seat and took off before putting it in auto pilot mode. "So firefly, who are you?"
Gohan hesitated and looked over at Sharpner. Then he looked back at Videl. "You promise you won't tell anybody?"
"Duh! Why would I tell everyone! That'd be dumb! If you want to keep your identity a secret from the rest of the world, then so be it. Now who the heck are you!"
Gohan looked at Sharpner again. This time Sharpner noticed and looked at Videl.
"I can't take this anymore! You said you'd tell me, now spill! Sharpner can know too!"
"Yeah man, I won't tell anyone. You saved my life back there dude! I was about to become a pancake and you were like 'whoosh!' and you caught me 6 stories above the pavement! I owe you my life, so there is no way I'd go traitor and tell everyone your secret identity."
"Ok then. I have no problem with you guys knowing. Or any close friends for that matter. I just don't want the public to know, because my friends and family value our privacy. We don't want the media crawling through our windows to talk to us or anything."
"I can relate there." Videl said.
"Promise you guys won't freak?"
"…ok" Sharpner said, kind of in shock.
"Uh, why would we freak?"
Gohan looked up at the ceiling of the copter. "This is awkward." He sighed and then looked at them both. "Well, you already know who I am."
Just as Videl was about to start interrogating him all over again, Gohan dropped out of Super Saiyan.
"…G-Gohan?"
That was sort of short. Oh well, more evilness! Bwah ha ha ha!
Response to da Reviews!
In case anyone other than those who reviewed were wondering, I am not planning on having Buu apprear in this fic. He's (It's?) too confusing! There are like, 50 Buus! How many are there really? Fat Buu, that purpley malnutritioned looking one, the one where purpley malnutritioned one ATE fat Buu (Eww! Self-cannibalism!) and kid Buu, and um, well he sort of changed everytime it obsorbed a powerful person, so if you counted those…I'm lost. I'm making up my own villainous villain of villainy!
A big thanks to Srusse87, for reading over this chapter before I posted it to make sure I didn't screw it up badly, which I thought I did on account of I wrote it while I was feeling sick. THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH!
Mutou Yasu- Thanks, I'm glad you support whatever decision I make on romance! Hmmm, yeah I've heard what you said about mystic. Um, let's pretend that doesn't happen or something. Or, pretend he can control it or something? Maybe? I don't know!
joe- awwwe! You're so nice! Again! I love you! Can I marry you? Let's go to Vegas! He he… I'm crazy. Ignore me. Heh.
MarshmellowDragon- Chicken every night! Eeww. I'm not that much of a chicken fan. I do love mashed potatos though! Only the mashed kind though. Chicken and potato song, LOL! I wanna hear it! Thanks for the review!
mirouku-has-darness-No Buu! Yay!
Mystic warrior- Ooooooh. I see. All I was fortunate to see was DBZ cartoon network style (Funimation? Is that it?) Yeah, that's what I thought about the hidden power. I just thought it'd be sweet if Gohan figured out how to manifest it on his own! You say his strength is just over SS3? Ok, I'll go with that then. I knew his mystic state was somewhere around SS3, but I wasn't sure if it was just above, below, or right on that level. Thanks!
Saiyan God- Yeah, I've seen a few episodes of GT, and I always wondered about that. I was like 'what! Why doesn't he go mystic or SS2?" Yeah, that did annoy me too. He lost so easily! Whatever happened to Gohan going into space with Goku anyways? I just recently saw that 'lost episode' thingie, and he was like 'hey, I'm going to space with you!' and then all of the sudden, Trunks and Goten were supposed to, and nothing more was said about him. Did I miss something? Did he just randomly change his mind? I wanted him to go to outer space! Grrrr…
Chris- HI! Yep, no Buu! I don't remember you asking that before… I hope my villain doesn't suck. Heh. Well, I didn't manage to get to Videl's house this chapter, but it will happen soon enough!
Honey Nut Loop- Thanks! I'm glad you like it!
Gual1-didn't get to Videl's! Poo! I wanted to too! The chap would be waaaay too long if I included that as well. I think. Next chapter though! Thanks!
Thanks to you all! Much love from me!
