Alright guys…continue! The BALL!! OMG!! Hahhaha…

The Ball: Second comes Hate!

Videl growled, slamming her fist on the counter and startling everyone around her. UNBELIEVABLE! She's only been in the party for ten minutes and has already managed to most likely be tomorrow's front page news! She could see it now, " VIDEL SATAN HAS A BITCH FIT AT BRA BRIEFS PARTY " How is it that these things always happen to her? Everything was fine at the beginning, and was even enjoying herself dancing with Matthew Perry when HE came up to her. The nerve of that GUY!! Yes, it was Sharpener Pencil, the lead singer of the band School Supplies, had marched up to Videl confidently followed by a flock of nosy reporters. And he told her she was not a good enough girl friend anyway?!! In front of all the other celebs and LIVE TELEVISION!' Everything went black after that, the last thin she remembered was punching Sharpener on the face and being pulled by Erasa and Security Guards.

Videl scowled, slamming her fist again and glaring at anything in sight. This party was a mistake, and the great Bra wasn't even here! Plus no guys, not that it bothered Videl much though. But still, she needed to punch something, she needed to brake things and release her anger! Shaking, no trembling in rage even, Videl slammed her fist once again on the marble counter, causing a dent mark on it and yelled 'DIET COKE NOW!'

The moment Bra and Gohan stepped foot in the party, they were swarmed by the media and teenagers holding pen's and pagers, shouting for Bra's autograph. Gohan sighed thankfully, for the panther mask that covered his face. No one seemed to recognize him and he liked it that way. Bra on the other hand loved the attention she was getting, hopping off her big brother's back and waving to the crowd with a huge smile. 'Welcome everyone, to my party!' She said sweetly over the ramblings of the pres. And the loud raging music.

'Ms. Briefs, who is that man beside you?'

'Are you two dating?'

'Is it true your entire body has under gone plastic surgery?'

'Are the rumors true that you've slept with actors Ben Aflect, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, singers Usher, Mario, basketball players Allen-

Gohan sweat dropped as the list went on and on, snickering when Bra began to fume.

'NO! NOT TRUE!' Bra yelled angrily, before composing herself again. 'I NEVER SLEPT WITH BEN AFLECT!'

Everyone sweat dropped.

'Actually,' Bra continued while she pondered. ' I don't remember sleeping with Brad- oh wait yeah I did. Now I remember.' She grinned sheepishly when another question popped up from the reporters, flashing their cameras so much. 'MS. Bra who is that man beside you?'

Bra smiled and looked up to his big brother, but found he was staring at something else far away. Curiously, she followed his gaze and growled angrily. Gohan was staring at Lime Lemon, dressed in a red elegant gown and was talking to Sharpener Pencil, who was holding a hanky over his bleeding nose. Bra could see a frown on his brother's face even through is mask. Turning her big blue eyes to Lime once again, she vowed to herself that she'll do everything in her power to destroy Lime for doing that to her brother. No one hurts Bra's family, especially not her big brother. And whatever Bra wants, Bra gets.

Confused at what it was Bra and the man was staring at, the crowd followed their line of vision and gasped. Immediately, the reporters flocked around Lime and Sharpener, flashing their cameras at her. 'This is great! First we see a not so good reunion of Sharpener and Super Star goddess Videl Satan, and now we see Lime Lemon, hunk Gohan Briefs' ex-girl friend talking to Videl's ex-boy friend! What a great story! Only if Gohan was here to see this!' a reporter commented, sticking out his recorder and shoving it near Lime and Sharpener's mouth.

Gohan frowned, able to hear everything the reporter said. He was about to walk away when a small hand had grabbed his arm. He turned to his sister's concerned face.

'Gohan, it's okay.' Bra's face suddenly hardened. 'I'll do everything I can to sort Lime to her place.'

He frowned at Bra and shook his head. 'No Bra, leave her. I don't want you to do anything to her okay? Promise me Bra.'

Bra looked away, but was forced to look back into her brothers' obsidian black eyes by a warm hand that cupped her cheek. 'Bra, promise me.'

She sighed and rolled her eyes. 'Gohan, she hurt you and I can't just stand by for that. But if you really don't want me to,' She said carefully, crossing her arms in disappointment. 'Then I wont.'

Gohan smiled weakly and whispered a thank you before heading for the bar. He needed a drink bad. Making his way, he was stopped however by a very attractive young woman with long flowing black hair, wearing a green dress. She had snaked her arms around his well trimmed waist, pressing her body against his.

'Hi Gohan, remember me?' she asked sweetly, licking her lips in the process. He looked at her innocently then shook his head. 'No sorry. But I have to go. Can you please let go of-

'Well of course you don't recognize me silly! I dyed my hair black, you like?' the woman cut in with a scary giggle. 'It's me, Catherine! The one and only heir of McDonalds which belongs to my daddy.'

Gohan merely nodded. 'Catherine, right. Got it. But I really do have to go and-

'HEY WHORE!' barked another lady with shiny blonde hair and milky soft skin. She stomped over to Gohan, prying Catherine's hand off and wrapping her own around his belly.

'Take a hike McDonalds, Gohan is with me,' she snapped, causing Catherine to fume.

'EXCUSE Me miss anit-social father geek of the century, but I was actually having a conversation here!' Catherine spat back, yanking the confused and thirsty demi-saiyan to her side. 'So it'd be best if you shoo, Nicole.'

Nicole sneered at her, grabbing Gohan's arm with both hands. 'At least my faher, THE BILLY DOORS, is loaded with enough cash to fill even your big head!' She pulled Gohan to her side, but Catherine pulled back. 'You know what Nicole, you've got an ego as big as your ass! You may be richer thanks to your daddy but I am a hell lot prettier than YOU!'

-why me? Why does Kami always pick on me? Dende I will kill you-

And thus, the tug-of-war commenced.

Videl actually felt relieved once she got her diet coke. Casually sipping on it with a funny straw, she glanced at the crowd where the reporters who only moments ago were bugging her out of her mind, now flocked around someone else like sea gulls on the beach. For once during her entire 20 minutes stay at this party, she was given a moments peace. Videl let loose a rare smile to grace her lips, sipping at her cola and cherishing her very unusual yet very pleasing time alone in silence when a familiar voice screamed at her ear.

'HEY VIDEL!'

Videl sighed, banging her head on the counter. Erasa, count on her to ruin my fun. Lifting her head up, Videl covered her face once again with the raven mask and pushed her empty glass aside. 'Hey Erasa,' she replied gloomily.

The blonde frowned at her friends tone but before she could say anything to cheer her up, she was yanked to the dance floor by a fairly attractive guy, leaving Videl alone once again.

'Hey baby,' said a deep voice beside her.

Or not. Videl slowly turned to face the man. He was wearing a very nice suit and panther mask covered his face. If he didn't sound so sure of himself Videl might've actually considered him…decent. 'Excuse me?'

The man took her hand in his and started kissing it passionately. 'Hey angel, where've you been all my life?'

Wrong move. Videl yanked her hand away and crashed it into the guy's face sending him to sprawl on the floor with a whimper. The man lifted his mask off, revealing a broken nose and teary eyes. Videl growled. 'JAKE! I should've known it was you! BASTARD!'

The reporters would've flocked around them already if they were too busy interviewing Bra Briefs who just arrived. Jake whimpered from the floor and got up shakily, holding his abused nose. 'DARN IT VIDEL! I was just trying to keep you company! What have you done to my beautiful face?!'

Videl rolled her eyes, throwing napkins at him. 'Next time you do that you'll be keeping my fist company.'

The man scowled before running away, melting into the sea of people. With an annoyed sigh, Videl sat back down and was about to start banging her head on the marble counter when Erasa sat back down beside her. 'Oh man, that Teran guy is so fine! He's the son of the mayor of New York you know.' Erasa said happily, ordering a whisky for herself. She looked to her angry friend, who seemed to be starring off into space. Erasa playfully punched her and scowled. 'Videl, what's wrong?'

Videl turned to her ready to answer when a muscular tall man shouted. 'Videl, want to play?' it only took a moment before that man met the marble floor personally. She sat back down, burying her face in her hands. 'Erasa, that's the third guy I punched who tried to hit on me these past….25 minutes. That must be a new record. Jake came up to me just a while ago and I punched him too!!' she paused, looking up to her friend with pleading eyes. 'Erasa, do you think I'm too picky or something?'

Erasa smile comfortingly at her friend and tried to reassure her. 'Videl, all you need is a sexy man who would treat you right, unlike those bastards Sharpener and Jake. For now, why don't I find you a nice looking guy.'

Videl shook her head. ' I just want to go home. Before I make the front page.'

Erasa laughed at her. 'Hunny, its too late for that. Now hush so I can look for a decent looking guy,' Her eyes scanned the crowd, passing by the fat guys, the skinny guys, old guys, underage guys, cut but stupid guys, smart but ugly guys. This was going to be harder than she thought. Her eyes passed the average guys, the losers then suddenly…stops. Pefect.

She squealed in delight irritating Videl even more. 'VIDEL! Oh Videl I got the perfect guys for you. He looks tall and very sexy, look at that figure. He looks good enough to eat.' Erasa says dreamily.

Videl growled. 'Guys like that are usually snobby and spoiled.' Erasa snickers and punches her friend. 'Lighten up Videl, he looks perfect for you. But the all star daddies little sluts are trying to flirt with him right now. Those whores.' Erasa sneers in disgust.

Videl rolled her eyes. 'All star daddies little sluts? Oh you mean Nicole and Catherine?' Erasa nodded, sipping on her drink while watching the two air heads flirt with the guy wearing a panther mask. Videl bangs her head on the counter and closes her eyes tiredly. 'if those girls like him then I wont. We have very different tastes.'

Erasa doesn't answer, not even paying attention to what her friend said. She was mesmerized by this man who in some miracle managed to pry Catherine and Nicole off of him and was now making his way towards them. Erasa squealed excitedly, drawing Videl's attention.

'OH MY GOD! He's coming here Videl! He's coming here! Hurry do I look okay?' Erasa shrieks in panic, quickly taking out her lipstick and hastily applying some one. Videl turned to her side to see who it was Erasa was oogling about and to her disgust it was the man wearing a panther mask.

'Erasa, that's Jake you air head!' Videl growls. Erasa pauses to look at her confused. 'What? Jake does not have that physique Videl.'

Videl nods, realizing it was true. This guy did have a body- ehem. But he was wearing a panther mask, Jake wore that! 'Erasa, that's Jake. He wore that mask only five minutes ago'

Erasa frowns when Videl starts to bang her head again, but a slick masculine voice broke her from doing so. 'You know banging your head like that is the number one symptom of being mentally unstable in America.'

A small 'eep' comes out of Erasa's mouth, her eyes widened as the man sat on Videl's other side. Videl on the other hand acted as if she was insulted by a six year old. She scowled, glaring at the man beside her even with the Raven mask that covered her face.

'Those are very weird pick up lines, Jake. But nice try though. Now buzz off before I brake something else on your face, although it would be an improvement.'

Gohan blinks. 'Excuse me?'

Erasa's eyes wonder around the crowd then stops and widens when she spots the real Jake flirting with Nicole on the dance floor! But if Jake is right there, then who's this guy? It takes some time but the concept processes through her mind and she gulps nervously, turning to her friend and tapping on her shoulder gently. 'Uhmm….Videl I don't think-

'Don't play stupid with me Jake! I know that's you under that panther mask you idiot! You were wearing it when you came up to me a while ago, remember? Before I slammed my fist at your face! So you can stop changing your voice now.'

Gohan freezes, staring blankly at the rude lady in front of him. 'Changing my voice?'

Erasa tapped Videl again, but now she did it harder to get her attention. 'Videl I don't think that's-

She slammed her fist on the counter, rattling all the glasses on top of it and shocking everyone who sat by the bar. 'Jake! I already know it's you, okay! So quite it! God, you men are something else. Isn't one punch from a girl a good enough sign that she's not interested?' Videl spat, growling at the man.

Erasa wraps her hand on Videl's arm and tries to shake her. 'VIDEL! That's not who you think it-

'Erasa! Will you stop, I'm trying to take care of something here! One annoying person at a time okay!?' Videl snapps sharply at her friend, who gives up and crosses her arms.

'FINE! I tried so don't blame me later.' Erasa breathes in defeat. Gohan watches confused as the moody girl wearing a raven mask turned her fiery glare back at him. This day was getting weirder and weirder.-do I know this girl? Why does she keep calling me Jake anyway?-

Videl sneers at him, lifting her mask off and causing Gohan to freeze in place. – Good God, she's beautiful-She glares at him with those same eyes Gohan saw just this morning while walking to Tiffany's stage, those same eyes he fell in love with. One word came out of Gohan's mouth, 'WOW' before a fist suddenly made contact to his face, snapping his head to the side. He could hear people gasp, then sounds of murmuring and flashes of cameras. Then a yelp of pain.

Videl cursed painfully, shaking her hand to get feeling back in her knuckles. – GOD! What the hell is this guy's face made of, Bricks?!-

'Geez Jake, now I know why you came up to me!! You knew I was going to punch you so you put concrete under that FUCKING mask of yours!!' Videl shouts at him, glaring at the man then at the reporters that were taking a thousand pictures a second. –great. Now I'm definitely going to be tomorrows tabloid target.-

A slight tap on her shoulder snaps her from her thoughts. 'What is it now Erasa?!' she growls dangerously. Her friend was pointing at someone at the crowd. Curiously, Videl followed her friends small pointing finger and her eyes widened in horror. There, standing by Nicole's side with a cheesy bright smile was JAKE! Her face turns completely red, her cheeks hot as she slowly turns her head to face the man she just punched. –OMG! HOW EMBARASSING! Who did I punch? Oh my GOD!-

'I told you it wasn't Jake,' Erasa whispers softly from behind but Videl didn't hear her. 'But nooooooo, you wouldn't listen! I told you never to ignore a blonde's skill in telling men. Everyone's so stereo typing these days, oy.'

Gohan winced slightly at the pain on his cheeks, but shook it off. He could take way more than that since he was younger. To be Vegeta's son you'd have to be tough. But the girl did pack quite a punch there. – Great, now that's going to leave a mark-

Slowly removing his mask, he heard sharp intakes of breathes and audible gasps from the crowd. Camera's flashed, Erasa eeped before fainting and the girl who just punched him turned purple.

-Holy SHIT! It's him! Those….those EYES!- Videl panics in her mind, slapping herself mentally, her own eyes lost in those deep mysterious onix sphere she saw just this morning after Tiffany's show. At that moment, Videl wanted nothing more than to kiss this man, then shrink to nothingness and disappear. –Officially most embarrassing day of my life!-Videl thinks, gathering her purse quickly and whispering a brief sorry before running out of the party, followed shortly by a group of reporters. She could hear him calling back but she didn't have the courage to face him again. All she knew was she had to get away.

Gohan stared confused at the direction the strange woman stormed off to, playing the situation again in his mind and trying to figure out what the hell went wrong there. Blinding flashes however interrupted his musing, and he stared at a huge crowd that gathered around him in shock. He growled and sighed. –Just what I need. No doubt this will be front page tomorrow. I wonder if I can get plastic surgery to look like Vegeta…-

Seeing the defeated look on her brother's face, Bra cleared her throat loudly and began to push the crowd away. Once everyone was at least a few feet away, David strolled to his buddy's side with a huge smile.

'OH man Gohan, you lucky dawg! Videl Satan got to punch you! I wish it was my face her soft, delicate hands crashed into.'

Gohan frowned and buried his face in his hands. –Soft delicate hands? I don't think so-

'I come here hoping to see my sister and maybe have a good time while not getting recognized. But is that what happens?! NOOO!!! I don't think so! I get punched on the face by some lady who calls me Jake then storms off! Do I even look like a Jake? Who's Jake anyway?' He sighed heavily, drooping his shoulders. 'I'll be the laughing stock of the entire Upper Class Party and most likely America.'

David shakes his head with a laugh, sitting down on the stool beside his friend and ordering a beer. 'Gohan , my man! You are looking at this all wrong. You are going to be the envy of every man in America. Well, you kind of already are I mean, Catherine and Nicole, the heirests are swooning over you and you just brush them off! Now you get Videl? That's just not fair. I think Kami is trying to be your friend here.' David downs his beer in mere seconds, slamming the empty mug on the counter. 'Why can't she have just punched me?'

Gohan snickers, running his hand through his dark spikes which cause the girls who admired him from far to giggle dreamily. Now it was David's turn to laugh at Gohan's pathetic face. 'Awww Gohan, you got admirers.'

Gohan makes a face to him and gets up. 'Haha David your such a joker, you should join the comedy club.' David smiles at him, raising his drink to his mouth but was snatched away before the brim touched his lower lip. Gohan downed it and handed the empty mug back with a smile.

'I need fresh air,' he said, trying to ignore the few reporters that were still taking his picture.

David nods, looking wide eyed at the empty mug in his hands. 'Alright, see you bro.'

Videl pulls her mask off and throws it to the ground, running up the concrete staircase that led to the balcony. Once she was sure that she was far away enough from those damned reporters, she stopped running and leaned on the stony railings, placing her hand on her heaving chest, her heart pounding just beneath her palm. –Why me? What did I do to deserve this?- Videl takes a deep breathe, trying to calm her nerves and slow her heart beat down but it wouldn't. The image of the guy's face flashed on her mind over and over again.-Gohan?- She felt guilt climb her spine, but another emotion took over her body. It was this small feeling at the pit of her stomach that was causing her heart to pound on her breasts.

She glanced at the bright sky, showered with glowing stars and the majestic shine of the moon, a small smile graced her lips. The night was so beautiful.

Just then a familiar voice called her name and pretty soon, Erasa reached a screeching stop beside Videl, panting for breathe. 'Videl! There….there y-you….are! I……I w-was lo…..lo-looking for you….everywhere!' Erasa gasps in between breathes. Videl doesn't even turn to look at her. She just sighs and leans forward, about to fall down the steep hill when Erasa grabbed her arms in panick. 'VIDEL! ARE YOU FUCKING CRAZY?!!'

Videl fell back on her butt and scowled. 'Erasa! I wasn't trying to commit suicide you idiot! I was just trying to feel the breeze!' she crawls back to the stoney railing, laying her back on it she rested. 'This day sucks so much.'

Erasa sat down beside her friend and rested her head on her shoulder. 'It's okay Videl. You're actually very lucky you know! I can't believe we were that close to Gohan Briefs! And you even got to touch his face! You are the envy of a million girls. What was it like? How did he feel?' Erasa chirps dreamily to her friend.

Videl rolls her eyes and frowns. 'I didn't touch his face Erasa, I punched his face. And he was wearing a mask, so how could I know how his skin feels?'

Erasa snickers at her. 'And I wouldn't be surprised if you get hate mail from girls everywhere for doing that. It's good you didn't punch him too hard.'

Videl blinks as realization dawns on her. She did punch him her hardest! But it didn't seem like he even got fazed by it. Plus, her knuckles are sore…She sighs softly, Erasa gets up on her feet. 'Come on Videl, lets go back to the party,' She says, offering her hand. But Videl declines and shakes her head. 'You go Erasa, I'll wait for you right here. I don't feel like going back there.'

Erasa nods with a faint smile then heads back to the party.

As soon as he was outside, Gohan tore his mask off and ran both his hands through his spiky black hair. The face of the girl kept coming back to his mind. –Videl.- Shaking his thoughts off, he wonders up the concrete stair case that let to the top balcony and finds the raven mask Videl Satan was wearing just moments ago on the floor. Her face pops in his mind again and Gohan growls in frustration. –why am I thinking of this girl anyway? I'm in love with Lime!- As he carelessly wonders around deep in thought, he doesn't see a woman resting on the stony railings and trips over her with an 'ouf.'

Luckily, he lands on his arms and pushes himself back up with ease while the woman watched him with wide eyes. Gohan quickly apologizes but freezes when the familiar piercing eyes glared at him angrily.

'It's you!' Videl mutters wide eyed.

'Yup, nice to see you again Ms. Videl,' Gohan says a bit sarcastically, leaning over the railing beside Videl.

Videl quickly scowls, and stands to her full height. Gathering her courage, she said 'Look Mister Briefs, I'm sorry about…what I did…I mean about what happened…in there I mean. When I crushed…I mean CRASHED! When I crashed my fist on your uhmm…you face. It was an honest mistake okay!'

Gohan just nods at her, his eyes directed at the sky. 'Wow, the stars are so bright tonight. You don't normally see them this bright.' He states calmly.

Videl looks up too and adds 'Yeah.'

An awkward silence creeps over them, both not knowing what to say. Videl finally breaks the silence, annoyed at the feeling. 'I'm really sorry about that. I just thought you were some guy who tried to hit on me a while ago.'

Gohan smiles but still keeps his eyes on the sky. 'Let me guess, his name was Jake.' Videl nods with a faint blush.

Another silence threatened to take place but this time Gohan broke it off before it even began. He turned towards her with a smile that made Videl's knees suddenly go weak. 'Listen, I was wondering if you would want to go to..' Gohan says, gazing at Videl's shoulder he spots a colorful freshly fallen leaf resting on it. He brushes it off with his hand. '…my place.'

Unfortunately for him, Videl mistook his movements and words, slapping his hand away from her shoulders angrily. –Oh my God! What a Jack ASS! I knew this guy was too good to be true!-

'Excuse me?! Listen Mister, just because I punched you by mistake doesn't mean I owe you anything okay. I'm not one of your booty calls you have fun with one night then dump later. So I'd appreciate it if you kept your filthy hands off of me!' She barks at him harshly.

Gohan blinks confused, what the hell is wrong with this girl?! 'What?! I didn't mean it that way! I wasn't asking for a booty call, I was just-

'Oh what so now you think I'm not good enough for you?!' Videl cuts in sharply, her hands resting on her hips and a scowl on her pretty face. 'You know, I hate guys like YOU! Who think they're some blessing God sent to all the ladies. Maybe if your heads weren't so filled up with pride people might actually think you're decent.'

Gohan growled. 'Generalizing people isn't a good thing miss. Assuming things about people end up making a fool out of yourself, like punching a guy you ASSUMED was someone else.'

Videl's eyes widened for a moment then narrows dangerously. 'Wait a minute, I thought you already forgave me for that one?'

Gohan stares at her then shakes his head. 'I would've if you were nice to me. You at least owe me some-

'OH MY GOD!' Videl snaps at him with crossed arms. ' I don't know who YOU think you ARE but I don't owe you anything buddy!'

'WHAT?! NO! I didn't mean it that way-

'I'm sorry but women are not entitled to sleep with every creepy conceited man such as yourself just because they cant take a hit from a little girl.' Videl bites at him, turning around and walking off, leaving an angry and confused demi-saiyan alone at the balcony.

She growls at herself, -MEN! Oy-

Gohan stares wide eyed then crosses his arms, glancing back at the moon. –WOMEN! So stubborn and confussing-

Okay so how do u guys like it so far?...lOL R&R!!! luv YA! D and oh yeah...BRA and GOTEN are coming on the next CHAPTER!!! WOOT WOOT!
