I, being Gohan, woke drowsily and panicked. This was is not my house, these are not my walls and this is definitely not my bed. These are not my covers and… where are my clothes? Who is that next to me? Is that Goten? If it is then I have to deal with another one of his nightmares. Oh my Kami! That is Videl! I'm in her house….oh yeah. Now I remember.
I better look at the clock, see what time it is. Holy red cow, its 2:30 in the morning! Shoot! What am I going to tell my mom? Come on…think, Gohan, think. Do not panic- calm down-wake Videl up; she'll know what to do. Yeah that's a good plan. Now how do I wake her up…?
"Videl, Videl, wake up." I heard a soft whisper.
"Just five more minutes Dairine."
"You have to get up now Videl"
"Dai just go tell my dad that I'll be down soon and go make yourself a cup of coffee, you know you want to." Suddenly I felt warm lips on mine and my eyes opened like a gunshot-super fast. "G-Gohan?"
"Yeah, I know, we've got a problem."
The past night rushed back. "Shoot, oh Kami, I-I mean umm… darn it. I was not supposed to do stuff like that until I get married. Well that ruins my plans and yours if you also thought like that-"
"Which I did-"
"And what time is it? Do we have to go to school? Does my dad know? He is so going to want to kill you, not that he'll be able to of course, but he may call your mother and- Oh no! What are we going to tell your mother? Where were you last night? Hmmm… Let me think."
"It is 2:30 and I bet you that my mom is up waiting for me so please think fast."
"Well are we lying to her or going with the truth? Truth is simple but a lie must be crafty and ingenious or your mom may not buy it."
"Well, if we told my mom the truth she would either freak out by running around the whole house shouting grandchildren repeatedly at the top of her lungs, or faint (she has done that before many times), or she may start yelling, a lot. I do not like the third scenario at all and I would say that there is a 45 chance for that one."
"I guess we are lying then."
"Would be helpful, and possibly smart- especially if we like our skulls not cracked open or possibly crushed."
"Your mom and her stupid frying pan… Well I have an idea and it even has you at my house. This even explains why you didn't call her. You just have to be able to pull this off. We may need to practice a bit. I know about your lying skills and they suck."
Meanwhile at the Son house…..
Mrs. Chichi Son was up patiently waiting for her 18 year old son to get home. Oh who is the authoress trying to kid with this patient nonsense. Everyone who is anybody knows what Chichi is doing. Let's peek in on her now, shall we….
"GOKU WHERE IS OUR SON??!!!??!! HE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE HOME HOURS AGO!!"
"I don't know where he is Chichi." Said Goku said, whimpering in the corner, cradling his poor head that looked as if a giant anthill or two was fully formed on his head. The little anime bumps on his head would make anybody wince, especially when they looked in Chichi's hand.
"WELL YOU ARE THE ONE WHO CAN SENSE KI! WHERE IS HIS? I WANT TO KNOW RIGHT NOW!"
"Well Chichi, honey, he's concealing his Ki, we all do that instinctively- that way when a bad guy comes to Earth they don't catch us off guard, we always hear about it on the news first. Otherwise they would go after all the high power levels first. That's what I would do anyways-"THUD (yes she even yells her actions) And Goku hit the floor cradling his oh so bruised head when…
Ring Ring Ring Ring Ring
"My baby!" Chichi yelled running to the phone
"Hi mom." Came a voice at the other end of the phone" Sorry for not being home but I have a very good reason."
"I highly doubt that young man but go on."
"Well you see mom, just as we were leaving school-"
"We?"
"Videl and I- Well, as we were leaving school Videl got a call over her Communica watch and it was the police chief…
Cut to-flashback (fake)
"Videl we have a situation."
"What's the problem officer?"
"There is a guy holding the whole National bank hostage."
"The whole bank by himself?"
"Yes ma'am, he's at the bank on Jefferson and 57th. Please hurry."
Gohan turned to Videl, "Is it alright if I go with you?"
Videl nodded and the two Saiyapeople blasted into the air at fast speeds. It took the two around five, four, three, two, one, now to get there as it was pretty close to their school.
As they were in the air Gohan had time to say one thing-"Only the Satan City police would need the help of a girl to stop one measly guy. I don't know what they get paid for anyway. You should get paid and the police force should be reduced to one person that just calls you and tells you when something is going on." Videl laughed as they landed.
"Officers we'll take it from here."
"Oh all right Saiyaman and Saiyagirl. Please help those hostages."
Gohan and Videl flew in through the window and landed lightly on the second floor. They then crept down the hallway and down the stairs. At the bottom of the stairs there was a man who looked to be around 30 standing up pointing a gun at one guy as the guy took money out of the deposit boxes and into bags. People on the floor were silently praying.
Gohan came up behind the guy and took the gun before the bank robber knew that Gohan was there. "Excuse me sir," said Gohan "you shouldn't play with these. Someone could get hurt."
The robber looked stunned for a minute while he figured out what happened.
"You'll have to come with us Sir." Said Videl
The guy looked around desperately before pulling open his jacket. Videl shielded her eyes, assuming the worst. The guy then reached down and pressed a button on the BOMB he had strapped to his stomach. The numbers 1:00 appeared on the bomb.
"You will never get me alive." The bank robber said "Never! I'll kill myself and everyone else here first. Mwhahahahahahaha."
"Videl, get everyone out of here while I do something with the bomb."
Videl began rushing people out telling them to "Move it people. Get out of here quickly. RUN!"
Gohan got the bomb off the guy, picked him up and flew him out the door and then flew into the air with the bomb in his hands. As the bomb hit 00:05 it exploded. Videl stared up in shock. She thought that Gohan had time to throw it and then it exploded early. Stupid prior programming!
Gohan was fine-even his clothes were okay but a bit of the building was blown apart. A flying piece of debris was sharp and gashed Gohan on the arm as he was busy making sure no other people got hurt.
"GOHA- I mean SAIYAMAN!! Are you alright?"
"Gosh Videl- I mean Saiyagirl, I'm fine."
"Well come back to my house and the doctor, Doctor Wilson, will look that cut over."
Gohan and Videl went back to Videl's house and the doctor looked the wound over. He took out the stray pieces of building and using disinfectants cleaned the wound. Gohan did happen to see a needle and ended up running around the house while Videl chased him for five minutes screaming how the "nice" doctor wasn't going to use any needles on him. (That's my boy, Chichi thought, just like my Goku. Like father like son. Even Goten is like that. No sharp things. Although they don't mind scissors. Or knives. They don't mind knives and- oh, I'll just be quiet now.)
When the doctor finally finished examining the wound he said that Gohan should stay the night for observation. Gohan had protested saying that he had had much worse wounds in the past but the doctor had insisted. They didn't even let Gohan use the phone. Gohan had finally been able to get away when the doctor fell asleep.
"…And that's what happened Mom."
"Well Gohan it sounds as if you had a busy day. I'm glad that you are alright. What are you going to do for school tomorrow?"
"Well I could go over to CC and grab some clothes or I could borrow some clothing from Videl and we can go to school together."
"Alright then, goodnight."
At the Son house there was a glint in Chichi's eye and she shouted the word "GRANDCHILDREN, grandchildren, grandchildren!" in a very happy tone of voice. All animals in a five mile radius abandoned their homes for the night.
"Well that went well." Said Videl "Now what are we going to do about us?"
"You're asking me?! Hey you were the genius that came up with the story to tell my mom, not me. I've only got book smarts."
"So what, you're the one who…the one who…oh just kiss me and lets go back to sleep."
Gohan complied and the newly united couple went to retired for the night/morning.
Well, SSJ3MysticGohan I hope that this is a bit more story for you. Do not fear, there is a whole plot I have planned.
