Lost... um... Sort of

Gohan and Videl panted heavily as they escaped the evil crowd. They were finally a good ways away from the crazy women, and now they were free from the torture that would have been put upon them. Sitting on a near by bench, both warriors leaned back as they wiped away sweat from their brow.

"I... I never knew how hard it was to keep up with the swarm of people," stated Videl as she leaned her head back.

Gohan nodded in agreement. "Yeah... it was almost like... trying to swim in rapid waters-" The saiyan's eyes widened as he looked straight ahead.

The female beside him paused for a moment then turned her head to him raising an eyebrow. "Gohan, why did you stop your sentence? Gohan?"

She looked into his face, and noticed the glazed look in his eyes. Was that DROOL she noticed coming from the side of his mouth? Videl brought her fingers up to his face, and she snapped them trying to get this hybrid saiyan out of a daze.

It didn't seem to work.

The rolled her eyes and crossed her arms. This was a load of crap; why wasn't her boyfriend responding?

She turned her head into the direction his head was faced. That's when she realized what was catching his undivided attention.

It was the food court.

¦±¦

Walking down the stairs of the hotel, the two saiyans Goku and Vegeta argued... What were they arguing about? Um...

"NO! Chicken tastes better than tuna! Tuna is SMELLY!" exclaimed Goku as he waved his nose before his face as if trying to get the stench away.

Vegeta gasped loudly, "How DARE you insult the mighty tuna! It's known as the chicken of the sea! Tuna is MUCH better than chicken! I also think Pork is better than chicken! It actually has flavor to it!"

Goku puffed his cheeks. "Well... well... I say chicken is better than tuna AND pork! Ham and bacon are better than pork also!" challenged back the younger saiyan as the two made it to the bottom of the stairs.

Vegeta stared at Goku strangely as he opened the door.

"Kakarot..."

"SEE! I win! You can't come with a good COME BACK!" Goku stuck his tongue out at the saiyan prince; "I win!"

Vegeta rolled his eyes. "Kakarot, ham and bacon ARE products of pork."

There was silence as they walked down the halls of the first floor in the hotel.

There was more silence.

More silence...

Goku turned his head to Vegeta and placed a hand behind his head with a happy-go-lucky smile on his face, "Oh! I never knew that! I thought ham and bacon were two different meats!"

Vegeta fell over anime style with a huge sweatdrop falling from the side of his head. He stared at Goku strangely when he quickly jumped back up into his usual stance. "You're such a dumbass Kakarot. Did you know that?"

Goku frowned at the saiyan beside him, "Hey! I resent that!"

"Ohhh! Big word," mocked Vegeta as he continued to laugh. "It makes me wonder how you can actually function in societ-"

Vegeta was cut off when a mob of girls rushed up to them looking very distressed. Goku, always wanting to be the big hero, stepped up with a concerned look on his face.

"Is there anything wrong, girls?" They all nodded sniffling a bit.

One of the girls, most likely a cheerleader, stepped up as she wiped away some of her tears with a tissue. "We lost track of someone. We can't find him anywhere!"

The girls let out a loud sob.

Vegeta hissed at the teenagers as he shut his ears with his hands. These whines were so annoying! "Will you girls shut up!" he shouted to them.

They all began to cry louder.

Vegeta powered up and created two energy balls in his hands. He held them up at the girls. The females immediately shut up, but not with out staring at the bright glowing light.

Pretty.

Vegeta snorted as he brought his hands down. "Women."

Goku turned his gaze from the prince to the girls once more. "Please, tell me who's missing and I'll help you find him."

Another girl from the crowd walked up while sniffling. "Gohan ran away from us."

Another girl walked up to the one who was speaking. She began to whisper in her ear. The saiyans could pick up every word since they had such good hearing.

'Isn't that Gohan's dad?' Both girls looked at the saiyan up and down.

The girl nodded. "It is!"

A girl listening to both squealed, "It's Gohan's DAD!"

That alone made a chain reaction as the message rang in the girl's ears. Goku paled as he realized the message behind that. All girls were looking up at him with their hands folded up to their face and hearts in their eyes. Goku was slowly becoming scared as he looked to Vegeta for help.

"Um... Vegeta? A little help?" questioned Goku as his eyes gave the look of pleading. The saiyan prince just smirked back at the man in distress.

"Nope, you have dug yourself into this hole," was the prince's reply.

Goku's face became longer as he lightly whined. The girls turned their gaze to the second man and another girl walked up to him. He looked down at her with a scowl on his face.

She continued to stare at him.

He continued to look down to her.

"What do you want?" questioned the prince harshly.

And in the blink of the eye, the girl ripped the saiyan princes' shirt off. The sight of the muscular upper body made the girls drool and squeal in delight.

This action made the princes' face pale when he noticed he was also becoming the newest prey to these evil females.

"LET'S GET THEM!" shouted one of the girls in the middle of the group.

That alone made the grown men scream like little girls as they turned on their heals before dashing to the exit of the hotel. Even running at the speed of sound, the mob of girls seemed to keep up with them at this chase.

¦±¦

Videl couldn't help but stare at Gohan, who sat before him. She was currently sipping a smoothie from one of the many restaurants in the food court.

Gohan happened to buy out five different restaurants of their food as he currently sat on the table ready for consumption... or already in his stomach.

As I stated before, Videl just stared. Her lip seemed to twinge ever so slightly as she watched in disgust.

"How can you eat that much?" she question him as she looked down to his abdomen. It didn't show any signs of becoming full. He just continued to shovel food down his mouth. "I don't know where you pack all that food..."

Gohan downed a glass of water before he left the already big pile of food on the table for a moment. He looked up to his girlfriend with a small smile as he rubbed the back of his head. "Saiyans have huge metabolisms, therefore we need to eat much more than a normal human," he answered the question in a manner as a college professor would have.

Videl had a sweatdrop fall from the side of her head. "But THIS much food! She looked at the huge pile that sat. "You've already eaten enough to feed an army, and you're still stuffing your face!"

He nodded.

She shook her head as she leaned back in her chair while crossing her arms. "I won't even ask how that's possible." She assumed that some things should just be left unanswered.

"THERE THEY ARE!"

Both Gohan and Videl's face became pale as they painfully turned their heads around.

And dashing at them was no other than Bulma, Chichi, and Erasa with about fifty policemen. Why were there so many police officers with the three women? No body knows...

Videl jumped from her seat and grabbed Gohan's arm. "Come ON! We have to go!" Gohan did stand up, but he paused as he looked down to the bags filled with wonderful food, which seemed to be calling his name.

"But I wanna eat!" His stomach growled, "I can't just leave my food here!"

Videl rolled her eyes, "For all the good things in this world... GOHAN! Grab what you can!"

And Gohan did exactly that. Videl did grab three of the bags on the table, and Gohan grabbed about twenty. There was still food lying on the table completely untouched. As they began to dash away from the evil women Gohan turned his head back and reached his arm to the food, which lie on the table.

"I will never forget you!" he exclaimed.

Videl glared at the saiyan. Gohan sure was strange at times. But a second later, she gave another sigh. At least they were able to escape... that was... till they noticed a mob of girls heading their way with two people running away from them. It was no other than Goku and Vegeta.

The teens, with much food in their arms, glanced at each other when they noticed they came to almost a dead end, that was till they noticed an escalator leading to the second floor of the mall. Using quick thinking, he looked to Videl. "I'm going to need you to hold your arms out, and carry this food." With out another word, Gohan piled the food into her arms. She didn't have time to speak as he picked her up bridal style and leaped to the top of the second floor.

And in noticing this, Goku and Vegeta glanced at each other before they flowed Gohan's actions. They also leaped to the second floor. That was where they noticed Gohan grabbing the food that he made Videl hold for a moment. She was standing up blinking at him. She then shook her head. "I won't even ask..."

"Hey Gohan! Videl!"

The teens turned their heads around, and they noticed Gohan's dad along with the saiyan prince. Videl looked to Vegeta and raised an eyebrow. "Why don't you have a shirt, Vegeta?"

Goku's face began to pale along with Vegeta's as his seemed to become the slightest shade of red from embarrassment.

"It's those damn teens."

Gohan blinked. "What?"

Goku rubbed the back of his head, "There were some girls looking for you... and they realized who we were."

Videl's face dropped, "Don't tell me. They're chasing after you now."

Both saiyans nodded. Videl rolled her eyes as she lifted her hands up in frustration before bringing them down. "Great! First the mob of girls decide to attack Gohan, we both have to escape from the evil clutches of his mom, Erasa, and your wife!" The black haired female shoved a finger into the chest of Vegeta in a Bulmaish way.

"We seem to have the whole National Guard after us because we ran away from those three dictators and now the mob of teen girls has turned on you two," she exclaimed looking to both men, "And now here we are... stuck on the second floor of this gigantic mall with 23 bags of food, that Gohan wanted to save, with you two and three different groups of people after us!"

Coming up the escalator was the mob of girls with the two mothers and gal pal of Videl at the lead. "There they are!" exclaimed Bulma as she pointed to the four sitting there.

They all seemed to stare at the mob as if deer stuck in headlights.

And with out another word needing to be stated, the four warriors dashed to the other side of the mall with the growing mob after them.

Now having eaten all the food, Gohan picked up Videl in his arms, and that allowed the three saiyans to pick up much speed with out leaving someone behind.

Crossing her arms in front of her chest, Videl frowned. "Well... this is just wonderful!"

Gohan looked down to her as they seemed to dodge another few people in their way, "Why do you say that?"

The female in the saiyans' arms shook her head; "We are now being chased by about a third of the population from school, a police force, and three crazy women! Is there anything worse that could happen!

The lights immediately went out of the mall.

Everything was pitch black. There was no light what so ever in the closed in mall.

There were many girly screams in the mall and many stumbles were heard behind them. That was the cue for the three-saiyan warriors to calm down. They halted in the darkness.

Gohan glanced down to Videl, "Are you okay?"

He noticed her eyes widened many sizes as if they were to try and pick up any light possible. "I... I can't see anything."

He hugged her closer to his chest and he turned to his dad and the prince. Videl heard Vegeta snort to the right. "You shouldn't be so fearful. All saiyans have a strong sense of sight." Videl heard the prince's voice become closer to her. "If we remain in darkness, as this, for three seconds 1/3rd of our night vision comes, in 30 seconds time 2/3rd's of our night vision appears. After 3 minutes we have all of our night vision, and even if the light comes back fully, our eyes can easily adjust to it."

"Yeah," stated Gohan as he smiled down to her. Although she couldn't see it, the female could sense it. "Unless the girls are able to chase after us in this dark, then we should be safe just walking away from them as they try and figure out which way is forward."

But... as the guys began to walk away from the mob, they noticed some flashes of light. The three saiyans turned around and their eyes widened. The girls were using the light of their cell phones to find them.

"THERE THEY ARE!" shouted on of the girls.

"DAMN IT!" shouted Vegeta as he began to run down the halls once more, Goku not far behind with Gohan trailing holding Videl in his arms.

It was still dark as night, but the mob of girls, women, and policemen were hot on their trail.

Poor tortured souls...

I was actually able to write 7 pages! I am so happy! I just hope this chapter is more liked than the last chapter, and please send me a comment or two about how you like this fic. I need to know your opinion so I know whether or not to continue sooner or later. If I get many reviews, then I'll update tomorrow, if not... then I'll update it when I feel like it... it might be months later. Don't exactly know. I encourage you all to check out some of my new fics and stuff; I have created a spin off for 'While You Were Out' and it's sequel called 'War Against A Roach'. It's pure humor. I have also created 'Lost' (a Mirai Trunks fic), I have updated 'Royalty At Heart' (sorry for that one bad chapter... it HAS been CHANGED! It's going to be a Videl/Gohan fic for those G/V lovers) and I have started the third part to the 'What Happened, Father?' series called 'Welcome Home, Child'. Much angst stuff... complete opposite from this fic... most definitely but Gohan is the main character in this trilogy. Just stating some stuff that I have updated this wonderful spring break. I'm so sad that it's Thursday... (sigh). But I have a three day weekend next week! Happiness!
