Okay... I realized just how out of it I was when I sent the last chapter last night. And, yes, for the reviewer who stated in a PS that Videl knew that Gohan was half-saiyan... I think I did put that down in a pervious chapter. But I don't think Erasa or Sharpener has that information yet... maybe Erasa... but not Sharpener. I know that he was asleep for half of the story and missed much that had happened... Anyways... to be honest, I'm still very tired and I don't want to go back to read the previous chapters I have out. I might redo the chapters later in the future when I have time, don't know just yet. But I felt that I should put this chapter out for the loyal readers! Thank you for being so patient! Oh yeah... and one more thing. I have thought up of a sequel for the fic. I'm thinking that there might be only about five more chapters' tops. Then I'd go to the sequel... Of course, if you have read any of my fics sequels, you'd know the title was somewhat similar to the original title. So, that's something to look forward too. :D

Ghost Stories – Part 2

§±§±§

Holding the light up to his face, Vegeta's cynical smirk made the others around watching him get the chills. The females involuntarily shivered as they scooted in closer to the males that they were sitting close to.

"As the lone saiyan walked thru the darkened night, his senses began to storm up. He could feel something close by, something... watching and stalking him."

Vegeta looked up at everyone once more, and his smirk widened. Everyone listening has eyes as wide as saucers. Now it was time for the kill. Vegeta stood up, with the ball of light at his face, and paced around the room.

"The young saiyan powered up so the area was lit up. It might not have been a smart thing to do on his part. He was, after all, on a foreign planet with strange creatures. Some had proven to be very, very powerful. But then suddenly...!"

CRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAACCCCCCCHHHHHHH

The girls screamed loudly as they clung to the guys. Sharpener clung onto Erasa as Gohan was gripped on by Videl. Gohan also gave a squeak as he tried to shield his ears from the loud noise.

Then the laughter of Vegeta rang thru the home as he crushed the ball of light in his hand. The prince's smirk returned on his face as he paced back to his spot. He was still laughing.

The teens blinked as they looked up to him, then the four frowned.

Vegeta's laughter continued to echo in the living room.

Goku gave a nervous chuckle as he looked to the laughing prince. "Wow... I didn't know you could time a story THAT perfect to when the thunder crashes!"

Vegeta's laughter died down, but was replaced with the infamous smirk. "Of course I know these things," bragged the prince as he leaned back in his chair coolly. "I have, after all, been to almost every corner of this gigantic universe, and I know most of its secrets."

The young boys gasped in awe, and the teens either, A. believed him because he was a scary, strong man... or B. They didn't fall for Vegeta's speech that basically said he was 'High and Mighty'.

Vegeta, on the other hand, was trying to hold back laughter. Sure, he just told a flat out lie, but he was known for deceiving... And to tell you the truth, Vegeta was THIS close to wincing from the thunder when it rumbled a while back. But this time he was able to play it off...

Maybe next time he wouldn't be so lucky...

After glaring at Vegeta in a time span of 28.14 seconds... Videl turned to Goku and gave him her brightest smile.

"Um... Goku?" asked Videl as the male turned to her. The tall saiyan smiled back to her and he nodded.

"Is there something wrong?"

She shook her head, "Oh! Nothing at all!" she stated with a sweatdrop falling from the side of her head and while placing a hand behind her head.

If she only realized where she picked up THIS new habit...

Videl looked back up to Goku with a serious look in her eye. It slightly unnerved Goku since her smile faded to a thin line. "So..." started the female warrior, "You're the last Martial Arts Champion other than my father?"

Goku paused as he placed a finger to his chin.

"Well... I guess so..." muttered the saiyan as he too placed a hand behind his head. "I received the champion title before Gohan was born-"

"Of course you would have Kakarot," commented Vegeta smartly. "You're a saiyan. Anyone who fights against a saiyan will have the guarantee that they would get greatly injured. Death is also on that list," stated Vegeta as an after thought.

Goku gave a nervous bit of laughter. "Well... I wish that were true when I was twelve," added the father of Gohan, "I was beaten in a tie breaker in the first Martial Arts tournament... what was that old guy's name?"

Goku scratched the back of his head. "Hm..." the saiyan gave his famous grin to the teens. "I guess I forgot! But I know it'll come..."

Meanwhile... the teens were just sitting there... with HUGE sweatdrops. Well... Gohan was... Videl, Sharpener and Erasa's eyes were the size of saucers.

"Y-you were at the first ever Martial Arts Tournament?!" exclaimed Videl blinking rapidly.

Goku nodded. "Yep! My friends, Yamcha and Krillin, as well as I were in the first tournament! Yamcha was almost convinced that Master Roshi was the old man I fought... his name was..."

"Jackie Chun?" asked Erasa.

All turned to her, and raised an eyebrow.

Videl poked her friend in the arm. "How did you know that?"

Erasa shrugged. "Internet?"

Goku tilted his head to the side, "W-what's an... Internet?"

Gohan slapped his forehead.

Goten and Trunks snuck out of the room.

Vegeta began to fall asleep.

Videl looked around the room. She could have sworn that it had gotten much quieter... She was snuggled into Gohan's embarace... she didn't know how she got there... but she liked the way in which he held onto her gently... yet securely. So wanting to break the silence... she decided to state something... very random...

She looked up to Gohan with a smile. He looked down at her and smiles back. "Do you want me to get you something?" he asked her.

She shrugged as she leaned her head on his chest. "I want a baby."

All could have sworn that breaks were screeching as they all froze at Videl's statement.

She looked around and noticed the petrified looks she was getting from her friends, and from the saiyans. But the shocked expression on Vegeta's face soon turned into a WIDE smirk. It was the same with Goku's dad as he began to laugh cheerfully.

"Well! I guess we should leave you two alone!" exclaimed Goku as he stood up and began to walk to the kitchen... well, not before grabbing Erasa and Sharpener's arms and dragging them along. And Vegeta... well... um... he also walked into the kitchen, but that smirk remained. Yeah... it remained...

Videl shook her head as she noticed the two were left alone. Sure, the statement wasn't exactly true at this moment. For all she knew, she could have stated something like she wasn't really a woman... but that would have scared everyone away in the home...

She turned her attention to the male she sat beside, and a huge sweatdrop fell from the side of her head. She couldn't quite decide if Gohan was scared... or just mortified at the moment.

Shifting her position, she began to wave her hand before the saiyan's eyes hoping she could get some response. She blinked when she didn't.

"Gohan?"

Nothing.

"Gooooohan."

Still nothing.

"GOOOOHAAA-"and a shriek followed as she was rolled over onto the ground with Gohan pinning her to the floor.

She blinked as she looked up at him, the sweatdrop at the side of her head growing bigger.

"G-Gohan?" she asked nervously as she tried to push him off.

The glint in his eyes made her very, VERY nervous.

"Um... Goku is eating all the food...?"

She heard a gasp from the man, who was pinning her down, and then he disappeared. Videl's racing heart calmed down, and she sighed in relief as she laid her head back on the ground. Just lying there she didn't want to get up... but she knew she had to.

"I'm going to have to start sleeping with one eye open..." she muttered. But that was the last thought she had just before she dozed off to sleep.

That... was very hard to write... well... the first part... So... Please review! I love to hear your comments and suggestions about the fic! And I might use a few for future chapters.

I think I'll also take this time to advertise for two things. One- I have this fic out (some might have seen it) I changed the title to 'Hidden Prince'. It's a story about Trunks, AU. I know of three people who are reading it... and all their comments are positive, but I really hope there are more people who would comment about how the story is going. Usually if I don't have a certain number of reviewers reviewing for one of my fics, then I'll just stop it. It depresses me that people don't care to take the time to write a message about how my stories are going; to me it just seems that no one cares. But to the ones who do leave a message or two, it is GREATLY appreciated! To the one's who review, you don't realize how much better my day becomes when I read your comments about a story I took time on. It really inspires me to go on with the next chapter even if I have a huge case of writers block...

Okay... enough of point one... For point Two- I have an account at under the nickname Takuma. I'm starting to post my own fan art there. So... I might add a new pic here and there when I can...

Thanks for taking the time to read my ramblings and comments.
