I don't like Hercule much either and I'll try to expose him later in the story if at all possible. I think I have an idea of how but I'm always open to suggestions on that or anything for that matter.

Chapter 5

Seven years has passed since the Cell games. Gohan and Goku are out in the woods for their daily spar. Goku charges at Gohan in a gold blur. Unfortunately for him, his son is just a little bit faster. Gohan fazes out and brings his fists down on Goku's head.

Goku climbs out of his crater dusting himself off, "Not bad son, but what do you say we take it up to the next level?" With a quick flex of his muscles Goku effortlessly ascends into the second level of Super Saiyan.

"Okay but remember what happened last time we went all out?"

"Yeah ChiChi almost killed me when you came home all bruised up. But don't worry this time I brought some sensu beans."

"Ok." With a slight flinch Gohan also ascends into the second level. The two become a blur as they exchange blows.

Meanwhile back at Capsule Corp. Vegita wiped sweat of his brow as he walked out of the gravity room. He'd been training at a new high of 1250g. I have to be ready for the next spar with Kakarot, Vegita thought. Next time I'll beat him and prove once and for all who the strongest warrior in the universe is is. Vegita had been pushing himself harder than ever for the past seven years, even entering the time chamber for a couple of days/years to try to make up the difference between him and Goku. Within three years he had achieved Super Saiyan 2. Now it took all Goku had just to beat Vegita.

Outside in the woods near Capsule Corp. Trunks and Goten threw a flurry of punches at each other. They fazed in and out each trying to get the upper-hand. Goten threw a left hook at Trunks. Trunks swiftly dodged taking to the air. Goten quickly followed. Trunks then threw a kick at Goten's stomach doubling the seven-year-old over.

Goten backed away. "That's it Trunks. I'm not going to hold back now." Goten let out a slight scream and his hair turned golden and his eyes turn green.

"Okay then I won't hold back either." Trunks let out a small scream and turned Super Saiyan.

The two charged each other with renewed vigor, fighting faster than the eye could follow.

Back at the battleground Goku and Gohan were going all out. Goku slammed Gohan into the ground shaking the whole earth for miles around. As Gohan was getting up, Goku said, "Lets take this fight some where else so it doesn't cause too much damage."

"Ok dad. Where should we go?"

"How about we go to Planet X?" Planet X was what Goku and Gohan called a small uninhabited planet on the other side of the galaxy they used for sparing.

"Ok let's go Dad." They both put their fingers to their foreheads and vanished.

Seven hours later a very bruised and battered Goku and Gohan appear back on earth. "Here take this sensu." Goku hands his son a sensu bean and eats one himself. They both then take off home.

When they arrive, they hear, "Where have you two been. You were gone all day and Gohan needs to study more."

"Calm down ChiChi," Gohan was studying while I spared with Vegita," Goku lied.

"He was not. I talked to Bulma and she said that Vegita was in the gravity room all day." A loud clank is heard and Goku is holding his head. "Now what were you really doing?"

"We were sparing."

"For seven hours?"

"Yep"

"That's it! Gohan is getting too far behind in his studies because of your stupid sparing and training. How is he ever going to be a scholar is he's always fighting? I'm tired of trying to make him study myself. We're going to send him to public school."

"But mom I already learned what you learn in high school when I was four," Gohan complains. "And what you're supposed to learn in college when I was seven. Hell, mom I've learned enough to have three PhDs."

Another clang is heard. "Don't use that word Gohan. It's final you are going to school starting Monday. I'll enroll you in Orange Star high school."

"But mom that's on the other side of the planet."

"What difference does it make you can fly or use that instant transmission your father taught you. Besides Orange Star is the toughest school on the planet."

"Can we stop all this talk?" Goku interrupted. "I'm hungry."

Just then Goten comes stumbling through the door looking rather bruised. "Hi guys. Hey mom is dinner ready I'm hungry."

"Where have you been young man? You look like a train wreak."

"I was sparing with Trunks. Now can we eat?"

"Oh alright. Saiyans and their stomachs," ChiChi mumbles to herself.

Next time: It's Gohan's first day of school. See what kind of trouble he can get into.

Read and review please and I'll try to update soon.
