The Gift part 2 (The Sequel) Chapter 3
Gohan awaken right out of his sleep real fast yelling in a lot of pain, which woke up Athena and almost everyone in the castle heard. "GOHAN?! WHAT'S WRONG?!" Athena looked at him with fear in her eyes and saw him grabbing his stomach and in a lot of pain. "Gohan, I know your in a lot of pain but try and calm down so I can help you!"
Gohan was breathing heavy and his heart was beating like if he had been fighting he was trying to speak but his words were hard to come out. Athena held on to him, trying to calm him down. Gohan started to calm down but was still in a lot of pain. The guards came in the room. "Prince gohan and Athena what's wrong?!!"
Athena turned her head. "It's ok, my husband had a real bad nightmare!" "Are you sure everything is ok?" said the guard concerned. Sighs. "Listen could you just get the nurse and please assure everyone that were ok, cause I don't want everyone running in here!" "Yes princess!" said the guard with the other guards leaving the room.
Athena stopped holding him and sled to his side looking at him still in a lot of pain, with worry in her eyes. "Talk to me gohan?! What's going on? Did you eat something wrong or what!" with fear in her voice. Finally starting to talk with pain in his voice. "A-Athena I just had a nightmare that your dad try to kill me!" Bending over in pain again. Athena held on to gohan again to try and calm him down.
"Gohan it was just a dream it wasn't real!" Gohan was starting to calm down with his breaths getting less heavy and Athena layed him back on his pillow and slid to the side again looking at him. Gohan opened his eyes looking at Athena with pain in his voice. "N-No I didn't eat anything! I had this awful nightmare about your dad! He tried to kill me and he stab me with these metal spikes!"
"Gohan you know my dad is in prison! He couldn't possibly try and kill you! Now come on, you have got to be eating late night snacks that just gave you a stomachache!" Athena touched his stomach to calm him but gohan got a little angry cause of what she said and he was still in pain. "Athena no! Please don't touch me right now! Listen to me I didn't eat anything t- tonight I changed my mind about having a snack!"
Athena felt hurt. "Gohan I'm only trying to help you feel better! Listen, nightmares are not a reality! Maybe your brain is telling you that you feel pain but it's not real!" "Athena I'm sorry to be snappy but this pain is real as it's going to get!"
Elaine and her assistant walked in and sat on the bed next to gohan. "Hey guys! What's going on?" said Elaine. Athena explained what happen. "Are you having late night snacks again, gohan?!" said Elaine smiling.
Gohan was thinking to himself: I think I'm going to be sick! What is wrong with these people? Why does everyone assume I was eating late?! She lifted up his shirt. "My goodness! Gohan what happen to you?! Mrs. Princess did you know about this?! Take a look!" said Elaine.
"Gohan, did you hurt yourself!" said Athena worried. Gohan looked down at himself. "What the?!" "Where did you get purple and black looking bruises? It looks like you got into a fight! I'm sorry gohan but I need to see if you've broken anything so please bare with me!" said Elaine checking to see if anything was broken. Gohan closed his eyes trying hard to deal with the pain and Athena comforted him.
There was a knock on the door and Athena got up to see who it was while the Elaine's assistant comfort gohan. "Hi mom!" "Athena, what's going on? I heard gohan yell! Its almost midnight!"
Athena stepped outside her bedroom door with her mom and closed it behind them. "Mom gohan had a nightmare about dad trying to kill him and he woke up grabbing his stomach and yelling in pain. I asked him about eating before he went to bed. He said he didn't eat anything! But when Elaine lifted his shirt he has bruises on his stomach like if he's been fighting and it looks awful! She's examining him to see if he broken anything!"
"Poor gohan! He must of fell, and didn't realize it! Was he sleep walking?!" said Trina worried. "I don't know mom!" said Athena.
Walking up the hall. "Mother, what's going on I thought I heard daddy." Said Arden rubbing his eyes. "Oh no! Arden's up! Mom, could you take him back to bed I want to see if gohan's ok!" said Athena. Trina took Arden back to bed assuring him his dad was ok.
Athena went back in the room and Elaine was getting up to leave. "Is he going to be ok?" said Athena looking worried.
"Yes he's going to be fine as long as he gets some rest and take care of himself and that nasty looking bruise! Also no training! I did wrap it and gave him a couple of shots for pain and infection! There's nothing broken! But what I'm so curious about is! Where did he get that bruise from?! It looks like he's been fighting." said Elaine wondering.
"I don't know unless he was sleep walking." Said Athena. "I don't know princess I hope he didn't try and hurt himself with all that's happen between him and your dad! Maybe he's having a hard time being here since it's been three years! Well I got to be going I'll see you!" said Elaine leaving out the door with her assistant.
Trina knocked and came in. "Is he ok?" said Trina. "Yeah theirs nothing broken! I'll tell you the rest tomorrow mom I'm really tired! Is Arden ok?" "Yes he's fine!" "Ok mom I'll see you in the morning!" said Athena closing the door and getting into bed with gohan. "Are you feeling ok?" said Athena. Sounding a little tired sleepy. "Yeah. I'll be ok." said gohan starting to fall asleep.
The next day Athena got up early and showered and got dressed to go eat breakfast. She didn't disturb gohan cause she wanted him to rest. She kissed him on the cheek while he was sleep. It was six thirty and she went downstairs and sat down with her mom to eat breakfast. "Sorry mom about the disturbance last night!"
"Athena don't apologize gohan just had a nightmare and got sick. Things just happen!" "Yeah mom I'm pretty sure he woke up the whole castle!" "Well Athena I'm pretty sure that was painful what he dreamed. But I never heard of a dream coming real! Theirs no such thing!" said Trina worried. "Me ether!"
Gohan walked in and sat down slowly to have some breakfast. "Gohan what are you doing down here? Your suppose to be in bed!" said Athena. "Athena I can't sleep and the way I feel right now I don't want to go to sleep!"
"Are you up to eating?" asked Trina. "No, but right now I don't care cause it will just keep my mind off the pain and from going to sleep!" "Gohan what would cause you to get those bruises like that!" said Trina. "I think maybe it was from my dream I know it sounds strange but I didn't do anything to myself and for some reason Athena, you act like my brain just made this up!"
"Gohan I didn't mean to make it sound like that but dreams are not real!" said Athena. Sighs. "I understand that, but it seems like it was and the pain was real!" said gohan.
"Gohan, dreams are not a reality! Did you walk outside and fall or did you hurt yourself?! Cause sometimes we can fight in our sleep and hurt ourselves cause in the dream its real but outside the dream its not! Omnimus hasn't been here for eight years and he's in prison and maybe your just over reacting about this!" said Trina.
Gohan started to get a little angry. "Trina I haven't been able to sleep for the past three nights and I don't know what's going on?!" said gohan frustrated.
"You didn't tell me you haven't been able to SLEEP?! Gohan why are you hiding stuff!" said Athena getting upset.
"I'm sorry Athena I didn't want you to worry! I should have told you!" "Maybe you need to see a therapist? Does being in the castle bring back memories?" said Trina.
"No it doesn't! I just haven't been feeling like myself for the past three nights!"
"I wonder is that why you were out on the terrace in the cold, looking like you were in a trance!" said Athena.
"Trance?! You guys didn't tell me this?!" said Trina surprised. "Well I didn't see it as a big deal!" said Athena.
"I guess I'm not the only one hiding stuff!" said gohan. "I wasn't trying to hide it! I just didn't think about telling mother!" said Athena annoyed by what gohan said.
"Guys I think I should just go home for right now. I don't think I'm adjusting well on Zeon!" "Gohan, you can't just go home you need to get bed rest and plus I can have the nurses check on you!" said Athena.
"Athena please I don't want to have anymore nightmares like that! Maybe I need to just get away from the castle for a while to see if being here is giving me sleepless nights.
Arden comes walking in and grabs and hugs gohan real fast. Gohan hugged him back trying not to show his pain. "Arden have a seat so you can eat breakfast!" said Trina cause she didn't want Arden clinging to his dad while in pain.
"Guys I'm going to go back home in a couple of hours so I'm going to go upstairs." Gohan kissed Arden and told him he will talk later and not to worry cause they will see a lot of each other.
Later on gohan was getting ready to go home and Trina and Athena were standing there. I wish you wouldn't leave!" said Trina. "Remember gohan I'll be down there to check on you tonight!" said Athena smiling. "Ok said gohan leaving, kissing his wife and Trina.
Gohan arrived in his living room and went upstairs and changed into his p.j.'s and got right into bed. One hour later there was a knock on the door. Gohan got up to answer it complaining cause he really didn't want to talk to anyone. "I wonder if that's my parents?!" Gohan opened the door. "Hi dad! Come in!" Goku closed the door. "Hey son! I came by last night and you wasn't home."
Gohan sat down in his recliner slowly and goku noticed him. "I was on zeon for the last three days! I stayed longer than I was suppose to!" "Son are you ok? Cause you don't look so well! Your not getting another headache are you?" said goku concerned.
Sighs "Dad, you wouldn't believe what I have to tell you!" Goku sat on the couch. "Try me!"
"Well I haven't been sleeping well for the past two nights and I just felt irritated for no reason at all! But anyways I had this awful dream last night about omnimus coming after me and in the dream I got in a fight with three strong men and this was at my job! But I fought all three and I had a tough time, but I ended up beating them all!"
"Ok gohan what does omnimus have to do with this?!" said goku confused.
"I'm getting to that. But anyways I beat all three of them and when I did they fell to the ground and disappeared then omnimus came out I charged at him and grabbed his neck he grabbed mine I hit him and I was so weak from fighting the other three I just couldn't focus! Then omnimus walks up to me and grabs me by the collar I tried to formed a ki blast and it didn't happen and he said something about playing in his world and all of a sudden in his other hand four sharp spikes came out of his leather glove and he stabbed me in the stomach with those things and I woke up screaming in pain and I think I woke up everyone else in the castle also cause the guards came in my room!"
Goku looked at gohan weird. "Is there something wrong dad?!" said gohan looking at goku confused.
"Son? Omnimus is in prison! You just had a real bad nightmare and you do look like you've been in a battle! Son have you been eating late again and usually you don't be in your pj's this later in the morning! Maybe you just need a vacation!"
"Dad?! I haven't been eating LATE! What are you trying to say? That what I dreamed was cause by eating and I'm overreacting! Lifting up his shirt. "DOES THIS, LOOK LIKE I'M OVERREACTING!!"
"Gohan calm down! Wow! That looks awful! It does look like you have been fighting!" said goku blown away by the bruise he saw, cause gohan took the bandage off. Goku felt sort of bad cause he thought gohan was just overreacting. "I'm sorry gohan but, THAT came from a dream?!"
"Well it had to come from somewhere!" said gohan. "But gohan dreams are not real! Did you fall out of bed or run into something?!" "Dad I woke up screaming in pain! This is the same thing that Athena and Trina said they even suggested that I talk to a therapist cause they THINK I'm overreacting about omnimus! Doesn't anyone believe ME?!"
"Son I'm not saying you didn't dream anything, but dreams don't come a reality!" "Dad I've always had dreams off and on in my life but this one felt real! I've got bruises from it and I don't remember hurting myself! Dad I don't get it?!" said gohan who started to feel pain cause he got upset.
"Son don't try and figure it out! Just forget it! Why don't you just go back upstairs and lay down for a while and try and rest!" "Dad, you sound like mom! Can't you treat me like an adult and not some fragile little boy!"
"Gohan I'm not trying to do that I'm just worried cause you seem like your in pain and I wanted you to get some rest! Cause your really upsetting yourself!"
"Dad do you have any sensu beans? Maybe I won't have to lay down!"
"I don't know cause me and goten have been using them for some intense training sessions I'll have to check! But in the mean time gohan I REALLY want you to relax!" "It's hard to relax when everyone thinks I did something to myself!"
"Gohan do you think that omnimus stabbed you when he's in prison?! That's really impossible for him to do when he's days away from this planet!"
Sighs. "Ok dad maybe your right I think I'm over doing it, omnimus is days away and he's in prison theirs no way he could do this!" said gohan giving in to what goku said.
Goku touch his shoulder. "Son you have nothing to fear don't let some silly nightmare scare you!" "Well dad when you get those sensu beans let me know cause I'll be upstairs in my room resting. Athena will be coming up later also."
"Ok gohan!" said goku who was smiling cause he didn't want his son worrying. "Oh dad there's one more thing!" "Yeah!" said goku.
"Please don't tell mom I'm sick cause you know how she gets and I don't want her down here! I'll let my wife take care of me!" "No prob son!" Goku left and gohan went upstairs.
****************
"So Adieus, what have you been doing with my remote?" "Oh just playing with gohans brain manipulating that microchip of his and I say brother I'm having fun!" "Well let's not get comfortable with playing with that cause we have more important things to do!" Adieus rolled his eyes. "Ok I won't play with it too much!" "Soon it will be time to pay a visit to that son-in- law of mine! And give him what he deserves!"
******************
Later that night Athena came down to be with gohan who was in his bed and she came in and sat on the bed next to gohan looking down at him. "Wow gohan this house is nice! Why are you so far out in the mountain region when you could have been in the city!"
"Cause its peace and quiet and also my parent's suggested that I be near them cause I might get sick and need them! Sometimes I wish they let me grow up especially my MOTHER!"
"Well gohan you still have that chip on your brain and it's really not good to be by yourself! Unless you want it removed and I could arrange that!" said Athena smiling at him.
"Eh! That's ok I really don't want to go through that!" "You seem to be feeling much better!" said Athena touching his hair. "Yeah I do cause my dad gave me a sensu bean! He only had one but I really needed three!"
"Well at least one did help and cleared up some of the bruises! Since it's getting a little late I'm going downstairs for a lite snack! You care for anything?" said Athena. "No I might get nightmares I don't think I can handle another one like that!"
"I know, but eating didn't give you nightmares I think your just stressed!" said Athena. "Athena I'm not stressed. To be honest I really don't know what it is, but I don't want to think about it anymore! I'm going to sleep!" Said gohan pulling the blankets over him.
Athena shook her head. She left out the room and went downstairs. Going to the kitchen opening the refrigerator. "Wow, theirs enough food here to feed and army!"
She just made herself a turkey sandwich and had some coffee so she could stay up a while. She went back upstairs to sit and read and watch gohan sleep for a while. Thirty minutes later as she was sitting in the chair reading and she saw gohan moving in his sleep a little. Athena looked at gohan strange wondering what's wrong. So she figured as long as he's not screaming it's fine so she went back to reading.
Gohan was dreaming again.
Walking down the hall limping and weak. He had managed to fight off omnimus and get away. He was at his college again. Gohan had blood dripping from his shirt where omnimus stabbed him and blood dripping from his mouth.
Walking down the hall clueless to where he wanted to go and hoping he could get some help. He found his classroom went in and closed the door and locked it. He didn't turn on any lights cause he didn't want omnimus to find him.
Going to his desk he was looking for the telephone that was on top of his desk. He took the phone and went under his desk and called his parents and goku answered. "Hello!"
"Dad! Please, you've got to help me I'm at college and I'm trapped inside! Omnimus is here and he's trying to kill me I can't use my power for some reason it DOESN'T WORK!"
"GOHAN! What are you doing at college?! Don't you know how to leave work?!" said goku. "Dad PLEASE this is not the TIME for a lecture!! I need to get out of here, I'm hurt and I need your help to fight omnimus!"
"You won't need his help! He's already DEAD! Ha Ha Ha Ha!!!" said omnimus.
"I'm s-sorry s-son!" said goku with his voice fading and falling on the floor.
Gohan heard a thud on the floor. "DAD!! NO!!" shouted gohan.
Omnimus got on the phone. "NO ONE!! Is going to help you!! Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha!!!!"
Gohan looked at the phone and the wire was cut. He dropped the phone and got up out from under his desk and ran right into omnimus. "UHH!! WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY FATHER!!" said gohan backing up.
"Don't worry about him! It's what I'm going to do to you!"
"How did you get in here?! You don't have a key!" said gohan getting in his fighting stance.
"When you play in my world you have a key to every door! Also, I just followed your trail of blood!" Omnimus started laughing and gohan looked down at his shirt that was becoming soak more with blood.
Gohan got angry and hit omnimus that almost knocked him out. Omnimus got up wiping his mouth and nose that was bleeding. Gohan looked at him with anger. He didn't care about the pain cause he was too angry and couldn't feel anything. Omnimus charged after gohan to grab his throat and before omnimus could almost get his hand around his neck, gohan punched omnimus again and this time he went flying through the wall over into the next class.
Gohan unlocked the door and quickly went down the hall running. He stopped for a moment and fell to his knees cause he was losing a lot of blood and bent over in pain. "I can't keep this up for long!" said gohan getting up going around the corner and running right into omnimus again who had his four sharp spikes out and grabbed gohan by his neck.
The way omnimus grip gohan seem like it was stronger than ever. "Your right you won't last very long!" said omnimus running his sharp spikes slowly up gohans side digging in his skin. Gohan woke up touching his side freaking out like if he been cut really bad yelling. Athena ran to his side and tried to calm him down and finally he stopped yelling. "Gohan are you ok?!!" said Athena looking worried and scared.
Gohan was talking between his breaths. "It was another.. nightmare with your father again...he tried to kill me!! "Gohan please don't talk right now! Try to calm down!"
Gohan calmed down more and Athena was able to hear him better. "Athena I don't know what's going on? But it's not funny! I can't have a decent good night sleep with out waking up in pain!"
"Gohan let me look at you?" said Athena lifting up his shirt and noticing marks of four bruised long lines on his side. "Gohan stay calm! I'll be right back!" Athena got up and went in gohans medicine cabinet and got some bandages. She was looking for some peroxide but she didn't see any so she got the alcohol. She came back and told gohan to turn over on his side.
"Athena I'm in enough pain as it is! Turning on my side will make it worse!" "Gohan just listen? Do what I say ok, so you can feel better!" said Athena looking at gohan seriously.
Gohan turned over. "I must have another bruise from my nightmare!" said gohan. Athena was thinking: Gohans not going to like this but I have to do it! "Just bear with me gohan it's going to sting!"
Athena poured alcohol on a cloth and laid it on gohans side and he yelled so loud he could be heard all the way to his parent's house.
*************************
Chichi was on the couch looking at a magazine and goku was sitting in the recliner. "Goku? Was that gohan?!" said chichi. Goku looked at chichi. "Him and Athena must be playing around! Don't gohan know to keep it down at this time of night!"
"The way that sounded it didn't sound like he wasn't playing! I didn't know Athena was here?" said chichi. Goku made sure he said the right thing so chichi won't get suspicious. "Oh she wanted to spend sometime with gohan! You know, away from the castle!" said goku-smiling thinking to himself: That did sound more of a painful scream. Oh well I don't sense anything wrong!
"They must be making us some more grandchildren!" said chichi smiling. "Chichi, we don't know what there doing so let's not listen!"
*****************
Gohan was standing up grabbing his side in pain breathing heavy. A-ATHENA! YOU SAID THAT WAS JUST GOING TO STING?! NOT BURN ME TO DEATH!!" WHAT DID YOU DO?!"
"I put alcohol on your wound! You were OUT of PEROXIDE so I had to use that!!" "Athena couldn't you tell me what you were going to do before you do it NEXT TIME?!" "I said it was going to sting!" She felt bad looking at gohan getting back in bed in pain. "I'm sorry gohan I didn't mean it I was only trying to help! Please understand!"
"I-I'm sorry Athena I'm just tired of waking up from nightmares that feel real! I feel like somebody is doing something to me it's going to be hard to go to sleep! I don't think I can go to sleep tonight?!" Athena got in the bed with her husband and she layed his head on her lap. Gohan I want to know, does that chip bother you?"
"Not really. Why?"
"It's kind of strange for you to have nightmares all the time unless that chip is causing it?" "Athena I don't know what it is I just want it to stop!" "Well tomorrow morning can we go to my lab I want to see something!?" "Your not going inside my head are you?!" "Gohan stop worrying I'm not going to open your head!" said Athena. That night gohan tried to stay awake but he went to sleep. Athena went to sleep also but couldn't sleep cause she was worried about gohan.
*******************
The next day at orange star junior high. Class was ending for first period. "So goten when are we going to study together?" said Gina walking down the hall next to goten. "I don't know we seem to be making out more than we are studying!" "Well we have to get some kissing time in also instead of our noses in the books!" Putting his arm around her. "Don't worry we will it's not just all the books!" said goten kissing her.
***********************
In Athena's lab gohan was sitting in her chair with all kinds of wires hooked to patches on his head and one on his chest. "I'm just going to check that chip gohan but in order for this to work you have to relax, if you don't it's not going to work right!"
"So is this your second year in nursing?" said gohan worrying already. "Yes and sometimes I work with Elaine so I can get on hands training. Now gohan I'm going to turn this on and it's going to check that chip you won't feel any pain at all so remember what I said, relax! Cause I know your nervous."
"I guess I can't hide anything from you!" "Of course didn't you realize I know you by now?!" said Athena smiling at gohan.
Gohan sat back in the chair smiling at his wife being very calm then he closed his eyes. "Ok gohan it looks like your vital signs are saying your calm so your going to feel some waves running through the wires."

The Gift part 2 (The Sequel) Chapter 3
Gohan awaken right out of his sleep real fast yelling in a lot of pain, which woke up Athena and almost everyone in the castle heard. "GOHAN?! WHAT'S WRONG?!" Athena looked at him with fear in her eyes and saw him grabbing his stomach and in a lot of pain. "Gohan, I know your in a lot of pain but try and calm down so I can help you!"
Gohan was breathing heavy and his heart was beating like if he had been fighting he was trying to speak but his words were hard to come out. Athena held on to him, trying to calm him down. Gohan started to calm down but was still in a lot of pain. The guards came in the room. "Prince gohan and Athena what's wrong?!!"
Athena turned her head. "It's ok, my husband had a real bad nightmare!" "Are you sure everything is ok?" said the guard concerned. Sighs. "Listen could you just get the nurse and please assure everyone that were ok, cause I don't want everyone running in here!" "Yes princess!" said the guard with the other guards leaving the room.
Athena stopped holding him and sled to his side looking at him still in a lot of pain, with worry in her eyes. "Talk to me gohan?! What's going on? Did you eat something wrong or what!" with fear in her voice. Finally starting to talk with pain in his voice. "A-Athena I just had a nightmare that your dad try to kill me!" Bending over in pain again. Athena held on to gohan again to try and calm him down.
"Gohan it was just a dream it wasn't real!" Gohan was starting to calm down with his breaths getting less heavy and Athena layed him back on his pillow and slid to the side again looking at him. Gohan opened his eyes looking at Athena with pain in his voice. "N-No I didn't eat anything! I had this awful nightmare about your dad! He tried to kill me and he stab me with these metal spikes!"
"Gohan you know my dad is in prison! He couldn't possibly try and kill you! Now come on, you have got to be eating late night snacks that just gave you a stomachache!" Athena touched his stomach to calm him but gohan got a little angry cause of what she said and he was still in pain. "Athena no! Please don't touch me right now! Listen to me I didn't eat anything t- tonight I changed my mind about having a snack!"
Athena felt hurt. "Gohan I'm only trying to help you feel better! Listen, nightmares are not a reality! Maybe your brain is telling you that you feel pain but it's not real!" "Athena I'm sorry to be snappy but this pain is real as it's going to get!"
Elaine and her assistant walked in and sat on the bed next to gohan. "Hey guys! What's going on?" said Elaine. Athena explained what happen. "Are you having late night snacks again, gohan?!" said Elaine smiling.
Gohan was thinking to himself: I think I'm going to be sick! What is wrong with these people? Why does everyone assume I was eating late?! She lifted up his shirt. "My goodness! Gohan what happen to you?! Mrs. Princess did you know about this?! Take a look!" said Elaine.
"Gohan, did you hurt yourself!" said Athena worried. Gohan looked down at himself. "What the?!" "Where did you get purple and black looking bruises? It looks like you got into a fight! I'm sorry gohan but I need to see if you've broken anything so please bare with me!" said Elaine checking to see if anything was broken. Gohan closed his eyes trying hard to deal with the pain and Athena comforted him.
There was a knock on the door and Athena got up to see who it was while the Elaine's assistant comfort gohan. "Hi mom!" "Athena, what's going on? I heard gohan yell! Its almost midnight!"
Athena stepped outside her bedroom door with her mom and closed it behind them. "Mom gohan had a nightmare about dad trying to kill him and he woke up grabbing his stomach and yelling in pain. I asked him about eating before he went to bed. He said he didn't eat anything! But when Elaine lifted his shirt he has bruises on his stomach like if he's been fighting and it looks awful! She's examining him to see if he broken anything!"
"Poor gohan! He must of fell, and didn't realize it! Was he sleep walking?!" said Trina worried. "I don't know mom!" said Athena.
Walking up the hall. "Mother, what's going on I thought I heard daddy." Said Arden rubbing his eyes. "Oh no! Arden's up! Mom, could you take him back to bed I want to see if gohan's ok!" said Athena. Trina took Arden back to bed assuring him his dad was ok.
Athena went back in the room and Elaine was getting up to leave. "Is he going to be ok?" said Athena looking worried.
"Yes he's going to be fine as long as he gets some rest and take care of himself and that nasty looking bruise! Also no training! I did wrap it and gave him a couple of shots for pain and infection! There's nothing broken! But what I'm so curious about is! Where did he get that bruise from?! It looks like he's been fighting." said Elaine wondering.
"I don't know unless he was sleep walking." Said Athena. "I don't know princess I hope he didn't try and hurt himself with all that's happen between him and your dad! Maybe he's having a hard time being here since it's been three years! Well I got to be going I'll see you!" said Elaine leaving out the door with her assistant.
Trina knocked and came in. "Is he ok?" said Trina. "Yeah theirs nothing broken! I'll tell you the rest tomorrow mom I'm really tired! Is Arden ok?" "Yes he's fine!" "Ok mom I'll see you in the morning!" said Athena closing the door and getting into bed with gohan. "Are you feeling ok?" said Athena. Sounding a little tired sleepy. "Yeah. I'll be ok." said gohan starting to fall asleep.
The next day Athena got up early and showered and got dressed to go eat breakfast. She didn't disturb gohan cause she wanted him to rest. She kissed him on the cheek while he was sleep. It was six thirty and she went downstairs and sat down with her mom to eat breakfast. "Sorry mom about the disturbance last night!"
"Athena don't apologize gohan just had a nightmare and got sick. Things just happen!" "Yeah mom I'm pretty sure he woke up the whole castle!" "Well Athena I'm pretty sure that was painful what he dreamed. But I never heard of a dream coming real! Theirs no such thing!" said Trina worried. "Me ether!"
Gohan walked in and sat down slowly to have some breakfast. "Gohan what are you doing down here? Your suppose to be in bed!" said Athena. "Athena I can't sleep and the way I feel right now I don't want to go to sleep!"
"Are you up to eating?" asked Trina. "No, but right now I don't care cause it will just keep my mind off the pain and from going to sleep!" "Gohan what would cause you to get those bruises like that!" said Trina. "I think maybe it was from my dream I know it sounds strange but I didn't do anything to myself and for some reason Athena, you act like my brain just made this up!"
"Gohan I didn't mean to make it sound like that but dreams are not real!" said Athena. Sighs. "I understand that, but it seems like it was and the pain was real!" said gohan.
"Gohan, dreams are not a reality! Did you walk outside and fall or did you hurt yourself?! Cause sometimes we can fight in our sleep and hurt ourselves cause in the dream its real but outside the dream its not! Omnimus hasn't been here for eight years and he's in prison and maybe your just over reacting about this!" said Trina.
Gohan started to get a little angry. "Trina I haven't been able to sleep for the past three nights and I don't know what's going on?!" said gohan frustrated.
"You didn't tell me you haven't been able to SLEEP?! Gohan why are you hiding stuff!" said Athena getting upset.
"I'm sorry Athena I didn't want you to worry! I should have told you!" "Maybe you need to see a therapist? Does being in the castle bring back memories?" said Trina.
"No it doesn't! I just haven't been feeling like myself for the past three nights!"
"I wonder is that why you were out on the terrace in the cold, looking like you were in a trance!" said Athena.
"Trance?! You guys didn't tell me this?!" said Trina surprised. "Well I didn't see it as a big deal!" said Athena.
"I guess I'm not the only one hiding stuff!" said gohan. "I wasn't trying to hide it! I just didn't think about telling mother!" said Athena annoyed by what gohan said.
"Guys I think I should just go home for right now. I don't think I'm adjusting well on Zeon!" "Gohan, you can't just go home you need to get bed rest and plus I can have the nurses check on you!" said Athena.
"Athena please I don't want to have anymore nightmares like that! Maybe I need to just get away from the castle for a while to see if being here is giving me sleepless nights.
Arden comes walking in and grabs and hugs gohan real fast. Gohan hugged him back trying not to show his pain. "Arden have a seat so you can eat breakfast!" said Trina cause she didn't want Arden clinging to his dad while in pain.
"Guys I'm going to go back home in a couple of hours so I'm going to go upstairs." Gohan kissed Arden and told him he will talk later and not to worry cause they will see a lot of each other.
Later on gohan was getting ready to go home and Trina and Athena were standing there. I wish you wouldn't leave!" said Trina. "Remember gohan I'll be down there to check on you tonight!" said Athena smiling. "Ok said gohan leaving, kissing his wife and Trina.
Gohan arrived in his living room and went upstairs and changed into his p.j.'s and got right into bed. One hour later there was a knock on the door. Gohan got up to answer it complaining cause he really didn't want to talk to anyone. "I wonder if that's my parents?!" Gohan opened the door. "Hi dad! Come in!" Goku closed the door. "Hey son! I came by last night and you wasn't home."
Gohan sat down in his recliner slowly and goku noticed him. "I was on zeon for the last three days! I stayed longer than I was suppose to!" "Son are you ok? Cause you don't look so well! Your not getting another headache are you?" said goku concerned.
Sighs "Dad, you wouldn't believe what I have to tell you!" Goku sat on the couch. "Try me!"
"Well I haven't been sleeping well for the past two nights and I just felt irritated for no reason at all! But anyways I had this awful dream last night about omnimus coming after me and in the dream I got in a fight with three strong men and this was at my job! But I fought all three and I had a tough time, but I ended up beating them all!"
"Ok gohan what does omnimus have to do with this?!" said goku confused.
"I'm getting to that. But anyways I beat all three of them and when I did they fell to the ground and disappeared then omnimus came out I charged at him and grabbed his neck he grabbed mine I hit him and I was so weak from fighting the other three I just couldn't focus! Then omnimus walks up to me and grabs me by the collar I tried to formed a ki blast and it didn't happen and he said something about playing in his world and all of a sudden in his other hand four sharp spikes came out of his leather glove and he stabbed me in the stomach with those things and I woke up screaming in pain and I think I woke up everyone else in the castle also cause the guards came in my room!"
Goku looked at gohan weird. "Is there something wrong dad?!" said gohan looking at goku confused.
"Son? Omnimus is in prison! You just had a real bad nightmare and you do look like you've been in a battle! Son have you been eating late again and usually you don't be in your pj's this later in the morning! Maybe you just need a vacation!"
"Dad?! I haven't been eating LATE! What are you trying to say? That what I dreamed was cause by eating and I'm overreacting! Lifting up his shirt. "DOES THIS, LOOK LIKE I'M OVERREACTING!!"
"Gohan calm down! Wow! That looks awful! It does look like you have been fighting!" said goku blown away by the bruise he saw, cause gohan took the bandage off. Goku felt sort of bad cause he thought gohan was just overreacting. "I'm sorry gohan but, THAT came from a dream?!"
"Well it had to come from somewhere!" said gohan. "But gohan dreams are not real! Did you fall out of bed or run into something?!" "Dad I woke up screaming in pain! This is the same thing that Athena and Trina said they even suggested that I talk to a therapist cause they THINK I'm overreacting about omnimus! Doesn't anyone believe ME?!"
"Son I'm not saying you didn't dream anything, but dreams don't come a reality!" "Dad I've always had dreams off and on in my life but this one felt real! I've got bruises from it and I don't remember hurting myself! Dad I don't get it?!" said gohan who started to feel pain cause he got upset.
"Son don't try and figure it out! Just forget it! Why don't you just go back upstairs and lay down for a while and try and rest!" "Dad, you sound like mom! Can't you treat me like an adult and not some fragile little boy!"
"Gohan I'm not trying to do that I'm just worried cause you seem like your in pain and I wanted you to get some rest! Cause your really upsetting yourself!"
"Dad do you have any sensu beans? Maybe I won't have to lay down!"
"I don't know cause me and goten have been using them for some intense training sessions I'll have to check! But in the mean time gohan I REALLY want you to relax!" "It's hard to relax when everyone thinks I did something to myself!"
"Gohan do you think that omnimus stabbed you when he's in prison?! That's really impossible for him to do when he's days away from this planet!"
Sighs. "Ok dad maybe your right I think I'm over doing it, omnimus is days away and he's in prison theirs no way he could do this!" said gohan giving in to what goku said.
Goku touch his shoulder. "Son you have nothing to fear don't let some silly nightmare scare you!" "Well dad when you get those sensu beans let me know cause I'll be upstairs in my room resting. Athena will be coming up later also."
"Ok gohan!" said goku who was smiling cause he didn't want his son worrying. "Oh dad there's one more thing!" "Yeah!" said goku.
"Please don't tell mom I'm sick cause you know how she gets and I don't want her down here! I'll let my wife take care of me!" "No prob son!" Goku left and gohan went upstairs.
****************
"So Adieus, what have you been doing with my remote?" "Oh just playing with gohans brain manipulating that microchip of his and I say brother I'm having fun!" "Well let's not get comfortable with playing with that cause we have more important things to do!" Adieus rolled his eyes. "Ok I won't play with it too much!" "Soon it will be time to pay a visit to that son-in- law of mine! And give him what he deserves!"
******************
Later that night Athena came down to be with gohan who was in his bed and she came in and sat on the bed next to gohan looking down at him. "Wow gohan this house is nice! Why are you so far out in the mountain region when you could have been in the city!"
"Cause its peace and quiet and also my parent's suggested that I be near them cause I might get sick and need them! Sometimes I wish they let me grow up especially my MOTHER!"
"Well gohan you still have that chip on your brain and it's really not good to be by yourself! Unless you want it removed and I could arrange that!" said Athena smiling at him.
"Eh! That's ok I really don't want to go through that!" "You seem to be feeling much better!" said Athena touching his hair. "Yeah I do cause my dad gave me a sensu bean! He only had one but I really needed three!"
"Well at least one did help and cleared up some of the bruises! Since it's getting a little late I'm going downstairs for a lite snack! You care for anything?" said Athena. "No I might get nightmares I don't think I can handle another one like that!"
"I know, but eating didn't give you nightmares I think your just stressed!" said Athena. "Athena I'm not stressed. To be honest I really don't know what it is, but I don't want to think about it anymore! I'm going to sleep!" Said gohan pulling the blankets over him.
Athena shook her head. She left out the room and went downstairs. Going to the kitchen opening the refrigerator. "Wow, theirs enough food here to feed and army!"
She just made herself a turkey sandwich and had some coffee so she could stay up a while. She went back upstairs to sit and read and watch gohan sleep for a while. Thirty minutes later as she was sitting in the chair reading and she saw gohan moving in his sleep a little. Athena looked at gohan strange wondering what's wrong. So she figured as long as he's not screaming it's fine so she went back to reading.
Gohan was dreaming again.
Walking down the hall limping and weak. He had managed to fight off omnimus and get away. He was at his college again. Gohan had blood dripping from his shirt where omnimus stabbed him and blood dripping from his mouth.
Walking down the hall clueless to where he wanted to go and hoping he could get some help. He found his classroom went in and closed the door and locked it. He didn't turn on any lights cause he didn't want omnimus to find him.
Going to his desk he was looking for the telephone that was on top of his desk. He took the phone and went under his desk and called his parents and goku answered. "Hello!"
"Dad! Please, you've got to help me I'm at college and I'm trapped inside! Omnimus is here and he's trying to kill me I can't use my power for some reason it DOESN'T WORK!"
"GOHAN! What are you doing at college?! Don't you know how to leave work?!" said goku. "Dad PLEASE this is not the TIME for a lecture!! I need to get out of here, I'm hurt and I need your help to fight omnimus!"
"You won't need his help! He's already DEAD! Ha Ha Ha Ha!!!" said omnimus.
"I'm s-sorry s-son!" said goku with his voice fading and falling on the floor.
Gohan heard a thud on the floor. "DAD!! NO!!" shouted gohan.
Omnimus got on the phone. "NO ONE!! Is going to help you!! Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha!!!!"
Gohan looked at the phone and the wire was cut. He dropped the phone and got up out from under his desk and ran right into omnimus. "UHH!! WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY FATHER!!" said gohan backing up.
"Don't worry about him! It's what I'm going to do to you!"
"How did you get in here?! You don't have a key!" said gohan getting in his fighting stance.
"When you play in my world you have a key to every door! Also, I just followed your trail of blood!" Omnimus started laughing and gohan looked down at his shirt that was becoming soak more with blood.
Gohan got angry and hit omnimus that almost knocked him out. Omnimus got up wiping his mouth and nose that was bleeding. Gohan looked at him with anger. He didn't care about the pain cause he was too angry and couldn't feel anything. Omnimus charged after gohan to grab his throat and before omnimus could almost get his hand around his neck, gohan punched omnimus again and this time he went flying through the wall over into the next class.
Gohan unlocked the door and quickly went down the hall running. He stopped for a moment and fell to his knees cause he was losing a lot of blood and bent over in pain. "I can't keep this up for long!" said gohan getting up going around the corner and running right into omnimus again who had his four sharp spikes out and grabbed gohan by his neck.
The way omnimus grip gohan seem like it was stronger than ever. "Your right you won't last very long!" said omnimus running his sharp spikes slowly up gohans side digging in his skin. Gohan woke up touching his side freaking out like if he been cut really bad yelling. Athena ran to his side and tried to calm him down and finally he stopped yelling. "Gohan are you ok?!!" said Athena looking worried and scared.
Gohan was talking between his breaths. "It was another.. nightmare with your father again...he tried to kill me!! "Gohan please don't talk right now! Try to calm down!"
Gohan calmed down more and Athena was able to hear him better. "Athena I don't know what's going on? But it's not funny! I can't have a decent good night sleep with out waking up in pain!"
"Gohan let me look at you?" said Athena lifting up his shirt and noticing marks of four bruised long lines on his side. "Gohan stay calm! I'll be right back!" Athena got up and went in gohans medicine cabinet and got some bandages. She was looking for some peroxide but she didn't see any so she got the alcohol. She came back and told gohan to turn over on his side.
"Athena I'm in enough pain as it is! Turning on my side will make it worse!" "Gohan just listen? Do what I say ok, so you can feel better!" said Athena looking at gohan seriously.
Gohan turned over. "I must have another bruise from my nightmare!" said gohan. Athena was thinking: Gohans not going to like this but I have to do it! "Just bear with me gohan it's going to sting!"
Athena poured alcohol on a cloth and laid it on gohans side and he yelled so loud he could be heard all the way to his parent's house.
*************************
Chichi was on the couch looking at a magazine and goku was sitting in the recliner. "Goku? Was that gohan?!" said chichi. Goku looked at chichi. "Him and Athena must be playing around! Don't gohan know to keep it down at this time of night!"
"The way that sounded it didn't sound like he wasn't playing! I didn't know Athena was here?" said chichi. Goku made sure he said the right thing so chichi won't get suspicious. "Oh she wanted to spend sometime with gohan! You know, away from the castle!" said goku-smiling thinking to himself: That did sound more of a painful scream. Oh well I don't sense anything wrong!
"They must be making us some more grandchildren!" said chichi smiling. "Chichi, we don't know what there doing so let's not listen!"
*****************
Gohan was standing up grabbing his side in pain breathing heavy. A-ATHENA! YOU SAID THAT WAS JUST GOING TO STING?! NOT BURN ME TO DEATH!!" WHAT DID YOU DO?!"
"I put alcohol on your wound! You were OUT of PEROXIDE so I had to use that!!" "Athena couldn't you tell me what you were going to do before you do it NEXT TIME?!" "I said it was going to sting!" She felt bad looking at gohan getting back in bed in pain. "I'm sorry gohan I didn't mean it I was only trying to help! Please understand!"
"I-I'm sorry Athena I'm just tired of waking up from nightmares that feel real! I feel like somebody is doing something to me it's going to be hard to go to sleep! I don't think I can go to sleep tonight?!" Athena got in the bed with her husband and she layed his head on her lap. Gohan I want to know, does that chip bother you?"
"Not really. Why?"
"It's kind of strange for you to have nightmares all the time unless that chip is causing it?" "Athena I don't know what it is I just want it to stop!" "Well tomorrow morning can we go to my lab I want to see something!?" "Your not going inside my head are you?!" "Gohan stop worrying I'm not going to open your head!" said Athena. That night gohan tried to stay awake but he went to sleep. Athena went to sleep also but couldn't sleep cause she was worried about gohan.
*******************
The next day at orange star junior high. Class was ending for first period. "So goten when are we going to study together?" said Gina walking down the hall next to goten. "I don't know we seem to be making out more than we are studying!" "Well we have to get some kissing time in also instead of our noses in the books!" Putting his arm around her. "Don't worry we will it's not just all the books!" said goten kissing her.
***********************
In Athena's lab gohan was sitting in her chair with all kinds of wires hooked to patches on his head and one on his chest. "I'm just going to check that chip gohan but in order for this to work you have to relax, if you don't it's not going to work right!"
"So is this your second year in nursing?" said gohan worrying already. "Yes and sometimes I work with Elaine so I can get on hands training. Now gohan I'm going to turn this on and it's going to check that chip you won't feel any pain at all so remember what I said, relax! Cause I know your nervous."
"I guess I can't hide anything from you!" "Of course didn't you realize I know you by now?!" said Athena smiling at gohan.
Gohan sat back in the chair smiling at his wife being very calm then he closed his eyes. "Ok gohan it looks like your vital signs are saying your calm so your going to feel some waves running through the wires."
