Chapter 2: Part 2

I will devour you
Take all the pain away

The trip seemed shorter then usual to Gohan, but then again he wasn't counting every single second of the trip. He looked down at his watch to see he had arrived approximately fifteen minutes earlier than past trips. Gohan shrugged it off though, after all he had more important things to attend too. He walked up to the large cast iron gates that stood between him and Videl's house. He pressed the CALL button on the side of the gates and waited for someone to answer. After a few seconds came a reply, "yes."

"Um, hello. Is Ms. Videl Satan in?"

"May I ask who is speaking?"

"Gohan Son."

"One moment please."

The other end then went silent for a minute or two while Gohan waited patiently outside. Gohan was becoming inpatient, but the voice on the other end didn't seem to care about how much time they were taking. Finally after several moments of silence the voice returned, "you may enter."

The gates slowly creaked open and Gohan went through and proceeded down the path to the front door of the estate. Before he was able to knock on the front door swung open to reveal Videl on the other side, "Gohan!"

Videl jumped at Gohan who wasn't expecting her to greet him in quite this fashion, but welcomed her warm smile and sweet scent nonetheless. Videl wrapped her arms around Gohan's neck and pecked him on the cheek. He looked down into her eyes and smiled. "I'm glad to see you too."

Videl loosened her grip around Gohan's neck and let her hands run loosely down his arms and lock back around his back. She looked back at him. "So what brings you all the way out here?" She asked with interest since Gohan rarely came out to her house.

"Well actually, I needed to talk to you about something."

"Really?" Videl asked surprised, thinking he had made a special trip just to see her.

"Yeah, it's important."

"Oh, well then let's go to my dad's study. He's not home anyway."

"Ok."

Videl loosened pulled away from Gohan and led the way inside with him closing the door behind them. She went up the steps and then opened the third door on the right. Upon entering the room one could see the whole room was encased from wall to wall with various titles that had probably never been read once their purchase, but were just more for show. On the left side of the room was a large glass window with a day bed beneath it. In the middle of the room rested two black leather sofas separated by a large glass coffee table. Near the back of the room was a dark antique desk with a high-back chair that matched the sofas.

Videl sat down on one of the sofas and Gohan sat next her. "So, what was it that you wanted to talk about?" Videl asked as she sat down.

Gohan took a deep breath, "well you remember what I told you about my saiyan heritage?"

"Of course, was there something that you forgot?"

"Well yes and no." Gohan said.

He was answered with a raised eyebrow. He sighed, "you remember when I told about mating?"

Videl blushed, "all to well."

Gohan cracked a smile, "well there's something I've discoveredrecently that pertains to that."

He was met this time with a curious gaze, "for some unknown reason saiyans who aren't full saiyan have to choose what part of themselves they want to be."

Videl's expression once again changed to confusion, "um, ok. Care to elaborate a little more?"

"What happens is the half saiyan's body, for example my body, goes into an internal battle to see which half will have supreme control."

"And it's happening to you?" Videl asked.

"Uh, yeah, you could say that." Gohan said as he rubbed the back of his head.

Videl took Gohan's hand in her own, "so what do I do?" Knowing that was the reason Gohan had really come to see her.

Gohan squeezed Videl's hand, "there's three options I have. The first being my human side wins and I turn completely human, though highly unlikely. The second option is that my human side loses and I become completely saiyan."

Videl couldn't help but interrupt, "what would be so bad about being a full saiyan. Wouldn't that make you stronger, which couldn't hurt giving past experiences you've had."

"Heh, it's not that I wouldn't mind being a full blooded saiyan, it's just everyone else around me who would mind."

"What do you mean?"

"If I were to become a full saiyan let's just say Vegeta would be very happy."

"Oh…" Videl said realizing what Gohan was trying to get at, "so what's the last choice?"

"The last choice wou-" Gohan suddenly stopped.

"Which would be what?" Videl asked.

"Which…" Gohan trailed off and put his head in his hands, "w-whi-which."

"Gohan what's wrong?" Videl asked concerned.

"Which wou-uld b-be" he then stopped altogether, took hold of Videl's hand, and ripped it from his shoulder. Videl managed to get her hand from Gohan's less than gentle grasp. Gohan rubbed the sides of his head in a frustrated type of movement. He then fisted both hand and slammed them into the coffee table, sending shards of glass flying everywhere. Videl instinctively flung her arms in front of her face as she felt the pieces hit her and fly through her short locks of hair.

A few seconds later she uncovered her face only to come face to face with angry turquoise eyed Gohan. Out of surprise Videl flipped over the left arm of the sofa. From her place on the carpet Videl looked up to see Gohan standing and looking down at her with eyes that were once so full of compassion now empty of all emotion. She looked up at him with equal intensity except her eyes were filled with the annoyance of Gohan and this game she thought he was playing. Videl got off the floor, walked over to him, and yelled, "Gohan what in Dende's sake do you think you're doing?"

When he didn't answer Videl rolled her eyes, "come on Gohan, this isn't funny!"

She then extended her hand only to have her wrist restrained by some brown furry handcuff. She followed the appendage until she saw that it was Gohan's and her eyes widened at the realization, "that's not what I think it is, is it?"

Videl looked to Gohan's face for an answer only to have him laugh a chilling and sadistic smirk. Though slightly disturbed by Gohan's strange behavior Videl still tried to ignore it and reached out her other hand to try and yank the tail from her wrist only to have her free hand now be stopped by Gohan's much stronger one. He then shook his head from side to side as if he had caught her hand in the cookie jar. Unwinding his tail from around her wrist, Gohan took that hand in his free one. He then forced both of Videl's arms behind her back and again used his tail to bind her wrists together. Gohan then inhaled a deep breath, taking in the scent of the girl before him and then heavily exhaling, "so, I see he has chosen you as his mate."

Wide eyed with confusion, Videl swallowed hard, not like the tone in Gohan's voice, "what the hell are you talking about?"

Gohan coldly stared down at Videl, "you know what I'm talking about. That disgusting excuse for a being has already chosen you as his mate. It's obvious from your scent. Besides, who else would he want anyway?"

Without giving the human girl in front of him a chance to ask any more questions he unbound Videl's wrists and shoved her into the wall a few feet behind them. Videl shook her head a few times from the impact and covered her head as several books came collapsing off the shelf. As the last book fell from the shelf Gohan walked slowly up to Videl and closed the few feet that had separated them. She looked up at his face as only a few inches now kept them apart. Gohan placed his hands on either side of Videl and leaned in even closer so now Videl could feel his hot breath on her ear, "no matter though, I'll have my fun and then all this will be over."

Videl cringed at what Gohan had just said. She freaked and slid under one of his arms and sprinted for the door. Before she could reach her only way to freedom Gohan grabbed her arm and threw her onto the small laying area by the window that looked out to the city beyond.

He stood above Videl, who was now on her. Gohan positioned himself above her and kept her from going anywhere. Becoming desperate Videl pleaded, "Gohan, please stop," hoping the saiyan would magically snap out of it.

No response came, except the felling of pressure being applied to her arms as they were put above her head. Videl wanted to go away, to curl up into a little ball of nothing and forget everything at that moment. She knew what was going to happen, but she rather die then let it come true. She felt rather than heard the ripping of her shirt and the cool air of the room as her bra was torn away from her body. Videl felt like giving up all struggle, but something wouldn't let her, "Gohan," she pleaded again.

No response, "Gohan, please…come back to me."

She was answered only by an evil laugh. "I'm sorry, Gohan is not in at the moment."

Videl felt more clothes being torn away and the deranged Gohan's breath on her. No this couldn't be the way it all ended, she had to keep fighting, keep fighting for herself, and keep fighting for Gohan. Suddenly she felt an overwhelming sensation of power throughout her whole being. It was indescribable, but all Videl could remember were her arms coming free and the assailant above being shoved out the window. Videl looked out the window and peered down at the ground below to see Gohan on his back and his eyes closed. She took in a deep breath as she looked over the city and the sun that was setting behind it.

I cannot stay my hand
From reaching out so that I can
Empower you
For all eternity

Disturbed
