A/N: This is the story I said I had in my mind, if you read the author notes from Pandora's Legend. The aforementioned story is currently on hold, as right now, I don't really like it, and I can't come up with any ideas… Pleeeeeaaase review, I'll dedicate the next chapter to whoever reviews this, and the first person who reviews will get my eternal gratitude, and advertisement for any story they want… (Their story, or if they want, someone else's) If they don't want one, they can get a... scan of a picture I drew, if they send me an email… (You can have both if you want) And if they don't want that they still have my eternal gratitude. Now, on with the story:

Prologue

----------

It pulsed unusually, like a heart, only with inconsistent beats. It just was… there, the only thing is this void of darkness. It was purple, and round… Weird veins of black ran through it, and they expanded and detracted with the pulsing of the ball. It looked as if it was cracked, the veins the same colour as the void that surrounded it, but you knew it wasn't, it stayed together, and it didn't break apart. It was a ball of purple in an endless void of black… Just black.

----------

He pushed his way through the street, and finally got to the alley, only to see a bunch of idiots loitering around, and blocking his way.

"Hey, you retards, let me get through this alley, or I'll kick you're backsides all the way to HFIL." The man grimaced; he didn't want to deal with this shit right now.

The whole group all stood up, a man spoke out, and he assumed it was the leader.

"Hey man, I don't think you realise who we are? I guess we won't beat the crap out of you this time, since you didn't know, just stay out of our way, you can go around."

"To be honest, I don't care who you are, the way around adds another mile to my journey… No thanks, I think I'll just go through." He really didn't want to do this right now…

The leader frowned.

"We're the Devil's demons, and you're an idiot," He tapped the green plastic over his eye. "To think you're stronger then us."

" You're not going to give up, are you? I'll leave you fools with a warning." He stood there for a few seconds, and then suddenly all the gang's scouters blew. "Is that enough, can I go through now?"

The gang stood back in fear, the leader had lost his resolve.

"Yeah… Yeah… you can go thr-ough…."

He smirked and walked onward. His mate was waiting.

----------

He stared at his paper momentarily, before writing down the answer; he put the paper aside and picked up the next one, this one was easy, he finished it quickly. He lifted his eyes from the papers, and stared at the beautiful sight before him, a pond with ducks swimming peacefully, and quacking every moment or so. Little pieces of bread were floating on the water, which were then snatched by a duck. Reeds surrounded the pond, containing the ducks nests and a few small lizards. The dragon fly's lazily hovered above the small pool of water, and landed on a lily every now and a then.

He looked back at his paper, and smiled, a ladybird had crawled on it, and he put his finger next to it, waiting for the bug to crawl on it. Once it was on his finger he lifted his hand, only for the red thing to fly away. He sighed happily, he loved life, nothing; could convince him to alter it, it's a true pity that life wasn't up to him, he loved peace, and saw beauty in everything, but he saw the most in his girlfriend, beauty could not present it self more purely in any other form then her. He had met her at this very same park, and it was love at first sight. He sighed again, and he was content.

----------

Gohan was confused, he couldn't understand her, she was a paradox. She was sometimes friendly, and was really nice, but usually she seemed to get angry at him, and rave on about his secrets. His face grew red, and his eyes down cast. He felt guilty for not telling her, but it would crush her world, and his, and while it may seem bad now, he knew it would be worse if she was told, for both of them. He sighed unhappily, why was it that life seemed to always screw him over (he was glad that his mother couldn't hear his 'bad language." even if it was his thoughts.) If it wasn't Dende tricking him constantly (like during Gohan's training he put a banana peel just under Gohan's feet before he landed.) it seemed to be that the world had it out for him. He stared at the page before his eyes, and there was Videl, winking at him… He wished she would do that normally, like Erasa, but then, he wouldn't feel attracted to her, would he, that is, if Videl acted like Erasa, but maybe if she was a bit like Erasa, but then she wouldn't be like Videl… Ugh! He hated his mind, even it seemed against him.

----------

"Gohan, get your arse over here and kiss me."

Gohan smirked mischievously and walked over to Videl.

"I apologise for being late Videl, some bastards held me back; I had to show them who was stronger."

Videl grinned "Subtle aren't you Gohan? I felt your ki spike…"

"If you felt my ki spike, why do you wear this useless crap?" He motioned to her red scouter.

"Appearances my love, appearances, no-one respects a female warrior unless they wear a scouter. They don't understand ki sensing, the fools, but it's the only way I can do what I do." Videl frowned slightly, but then she grinned again. "Let's ignore the social standards of this sector, and come here and kiss me."

Gohan grinned evilly. "Yes ma'am, whatever you say." He walked over and started kissing her neck.

"Wha... Whatever I say?" she managed to stumble out in her ecstasy. Gohan nuzzled her neck again, and mumbled.

"Mmm-hmm."

Videl grabbed Gohan's shoulders, and held him at arms length.

"Then continue what you were doing…"

Gohan smiled, and went back to enjoying his treasure.

----------

The perfect form of beauty stood before him, and he smiled.

"Hey Gohan, how are you?"

"Better, now that you're here."

Videl smiled that angelic smile.

"Can you put away your papers for a sec? They're sitting in my favourite seat."

Gohan smiled again, and took the papers off his lap, only for them to be replaced by Videl. She picked up the papers for a moment, and grinned.

"Jeez Gohan, your mum seems to be working you hard…"

"Nah, they're all easy. Nothing that I can't handle."

"A genius like you should be rewarded for all your hard work." Videl lent forward and kissed Gohan's lips.

"I should get mum to give me more homework."

Videl laughed, and then put her arms around Gohan shoulders.

"I love you Gohan, I hope nothing changes."

"I love you too, I was just thinking of that a moment ago."

"What else did you think about?"

"How you must be the pure form of beauty."

She grinned.

"You're such a charmer Gohan."

"It's the truth; do you want to feed the ducks?"

"Nah, we can do that later, right now, I just want to be with you."

Gohan smiled and held Videl closer, and just enjoyed her presence.
