Murphy's Law: Anything that could go wrong WILL go wrong and in the worst possible way.
(Does that allude to what this chapter will be about?) (cackles evilly) (You bet you ass it does!)
Um... just a quick note for those who aren't familiar with my writing. The §±§ is used so it tells of a changing in scenery... I don't know if there are those who had or hadn't caught onto that... and the §±§±§±§±§±§ signify for the end of the chapter. I might use different symbols... but in about all of my fics... that's what I use to help divide my chapters.

Chapter 29- Murphy's Law
§±§±§±§±§±§
So... the last time we left our hero's... and heroine... Videl was going insane... and so were the other saiyans... but not so much.
Yeah...
But after about thirty minutes of promising her nothings, she finally calmed down... and, yes, her hyperventilating went down to almost zilch.
At this time, we find Gohan and Videl both sitting silently, on the warm beach sand, looking up into the dark, clear, starry sky. It was indeed a very beautiful night out, and the couple swore they noticed a shooting star out! It almost seemed to be a perfect night... almost too perfect if you asked me; this day, however, was what anyone would have wished for.
The older saiyan men were finally able to find time to spar out above the ocean waters as the calm waters shifted underneath from their incredible powers. Goten had also fallen asleep shortly after he finished his meal of about five or six fish... not that big of a meal if you asked him.
Vegeta and Goku paused their spar for a moment before turning to the young couple. Both just seemed to stare up into the clear sky content in each other's embrace while silence covered the both of them.
"What do you think our wives would do if they noticed the two teens like this?" questioned Goku as he dashed towards Vegeta once again.
The saiyan prince dodged a few punches aimed at his head before he shoved his own fist into the stomach of the younger... but taller saiyan. "They'd want to take as many pictures... video tape this moment; they'd slap a white dress on the brat's mate and make him wear one of those rather stiff torture jackets." Vegeta mentally shivered. "Those things are impossible to wear!" Vegeta felt his body beaten on the side, and it fell into the ocean. Goku just smirked as he crossed his arms above the water.
"You really shouldn't talk while you spar," commented the goofy saiyan as he lowered his energy to meet his saiyan comrade. "It takes your focus away."
Vegeta glared at the younger saiyan shoving a raw ball of energy in his face. "Shut up; you should speak what you preach too."
Meanwhile...
Videl lightly stroked Goten's dark locks of spiky hair as he lay in her lap. Gohan was also sitting beside her, his arm loosely around her shoulders. Both looked up into the sky, but at this instance, watching the two full-blooded saiyans kicking the snot out of each other.
Videl winced when she noticed blood flying after each blow given. "They really like... to kill their opponent?" she questioned to her boyfriend as he lightly chuckled.
He lightly laid his chin on the top of her hair. He couldn't help but smile. She smelled so good! "Yes; it's the only way that a saiyan can build up strength. They'll kick each other's behinds to the point of death, recover, then become a stronger warrior."
Videl frowned in disgust. "To the point of death?" She shook her head, "No thank you! I actually wish to see the day I graduate from school, when I graduate college, get married... start a family..." She began to trail off... becoming very nervous when speaking of such a subject to the person, who was most likely going to be her husband in the near future.
"Is that so?" he asked her with a smile on his lips; his arm tightened around her shoulder's bringing her in closer to him. "I think that might be why I haven't taken training so seriously any more. I also treasure my life a bit more than wanting to stay in shape."
Videl looked up to him, her sparkling blue eyes almost pleading, "But shouldn't you continue your training?"
He blinked at her comment. She WANTED him to continue to train? A mental battle began to form in his head as he looked back down to her, and then thought about her comment.
'Oh man! She wants me to continue fighting! I knew I should have listened to all my dad's friends... and to Piccolo. It's like their rubbing it in my face now!'
'But what about your mother? She really wants you to become a scholar. Do you want to give up all the hard work she put you though, just so you could become a bit stronger?'
'Well... no... but maybe I should train, just to the point where I can stay at a steady level... not exactly learn anything, but still be alert and fit for a fight if any more super villains come...'
'You very well know your mother won't approve.'
'I know... but...'
'But nothing! Your mother will have your head!'
Gohan lightly growled, now not really caring if anyone heard him.
"Well then, &# her wishes! I'm continuing my training!" exclaimed Gohan as he glared into the sky.
He then felt a smack across his face from the person beside him, and the redness he was seeing in his eyes turned back to clear as the dark blue night came into his view once more. Now... he was currently in the stage of supersaiyan, mainly just to light up the area. But when Videl had slapped his face, he was seeing stars! Seriously! That slap hurt him! He looked down to her as she glared her meanest eyes at him.
He rubbed the side of his face, a pout forming on his lips. "What did I do, Videl? Why did you slap me?"
Her glare remained as she jerked her shoulder away from his grasp, almost walking up the chibi in her lap. "You should have kept your mental fight... mental!"
"What do you-"
Videl pointed to the sleeping chibi, who seemed to have a twitching foot and muttering something about chocolate cake every few seconds with drool coming from his lips. Her tone turned to a hushed whisper, "You shouldn't be using the symbols or making it look like you're trying to say something bad! For all I know, Goten might have learned the symbol technique from YOU."
She began to jab her pointer finger in his chest non-too gently either. "I don't want him to become a potty mouth either! You're an older brother! Be an example."
Gohan blinked. Immediately he nodded his head as he turned away from her, his checks a bright crimson from embarrassment.
He tried to wrap his arm around her waist, but he noticed her tense up almost immediately.
'Oh... Just peachy...' he inwardly thought.
But he felt her rest her head on his shoulder almost in a calm relaxed manner. He heard her laugh gently as she looked back into his eyes, all seriousness now vanished, and a bright smile on her lips. "It's hard to remain angry at you... you know that?"
Gohan just laughed nervously as he rubbed the back of his head with his palm... in a very Son-ish manner.

Morning had arrived...
The sun wasn't out.
The sound of waves crashing was heard in the distance, but no sound of the birds...
There was no breeze, but giggling was heard.
Almost seemed like a normal day if you asked the sleeping saiyans as they sprawled out in the sand. Well... the only thing they were clad in at the time were boxers... all of them... And Videl was very much in her clothing... it was just a bit on the... icky side. No need for changing though. It was better than being away from those crazy women.
Another giggle.
Gohan's ear twitched when the sound passed by. He could most defiantly feel Videl snuggled to him as well as his younger brother, who slept beside both friends.
Goodness... why was it so dark?
Another giggle.
Yep... just like any other day-
Another giggle.
Wait a second...
Gohan lazily opened his eye.
Immediately his eyes widened to the size of saucers as he clung to his brother and Videl as tightly as he could.
As far as he could see... there were girls. A multitude of girls were there... if you looked at this from the sky, you would have seen a small open sand circle in the middle- which Gohan, Videl, and Goten occupied- and all around... for at least a mile around, was girls.
So. Many. Girls.
Goten began choking as he opened his eyes. "Brother!" he exclaimed tiredly, "You're suffocating..." Goten opened his eyes. His pupils turned to tiny, almost invisible dots, "...me?"
Videl also took this time to wake up very much feeling the ribs in her chest breaking from the tight grip Gohan had on her. She frowned, her eyes closed. "G-Gohan! It hurts!"
Her eyes snapped open in annoyance before all pain seemed to vanish from her mind. She noticed many girls around. Many, MANY girls around. She noticed about ten carrying rope, and she noticed five girls holding about four rolls of duct tape. All had smirks on their colored lips.
The three warriors were cornered.
A random girl in the back shouted, "GET THEM!" And that was all that needed to be stated as fifty or so girls piled up on the three.
It was lucky that Gohan had come to his senses; he was able to fly the two, who were in his arms, up into the air away from the chaos of the crazy girls.
It was then that they realized how much crap they had gotten into. There were girls for MILES!
It didn't seem as if this fazed the girls. Instead, some girls, who were in the back jumped into randomly placed hover bikes, which had the ability to fly into the air...
Maybe that was just a small set back for the saiyans and the human.
And about to fly off at top speeds, Gohan noticed his father carried above the mass of girls tied very much up in the saiyan proof duct tape and sturdy steel ropes. Goku was able to speak though; the girls hadn't gotten to taping his mouth shut yet.
"GOHAN! GET AWAY FROM HERE!" shouted the father of the hybrid saiyan. "IT'S TOO DANGEROUS! YOU'LL GET CAUGHT!"
Gohan's eyes widened in horror as many of the muscle crazy girls began ogling the saiyan as they started to bring him into the massive crowd of teen girls. "NO! DAD! I HAVE TO SAVE YOU!"
"GET AWAY FROM HERE BRAT!"
Gohan snapped his head over to another familiar voice, which came from the girls. It was Vegeta. It seemed as if he was being 'engulfed' by many hands and arms as they tried to bring him under and into the evil clutches of the females. The saiyan prince tried to desperately claw his way out of the multitude, but was failing miserably. "SAVE YOURSELF!"
Gohan brought his hand towards the two grown saiyan men, and a strange sense of slow motion coming into effect.
"N-NNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
His hand tried to reach out toward them, as if it might help them to escape from the clutches of the evil girls... but it did nothing.
Almost like if he was hit by a ton of bricks, Gohan felt something slam into his head.
It brought a wave of dizziness over him as he dropped his brother and girlfriend.
The two of lesser strength began shouting to Gohan, almost as if they were also trying to reach him from this terrible fate. But nothing could be done...
And Gohan felt his body make impact... but with something soft. The fall wasn't hard, like the ones in battle where he would just plummet into the earth. No; it felt as if something had CAUGHT him.
"Oh Go-han!" stated a sing songy voice.
Gohan's face immediately paled as he opened his eyes, his vision slightly warped. When the vision cleared, he noticed all the eyes of the girls around him, smirks on their lips.
Nothing Gohan had faced before was scarier than this.
Poor unfortunate soul.
