"Goku!" I yelled, "I'm going to Goku's house."
"And I am going with her to play with Goten," said Trunks.
"Alright, then go!!" yelled Vegeta.
When we reached Goku's house it looked like no one was there. But I pounded on the door anyways.
"Who is it?" asked a tired voice from the other side.
"It's Rika and Trunks," I said after realizing it was Gohan. "We need to talk to Goku ASAP."
"Come in."
As the door slowly opened, Trunks had to hit me before I would say anymore, for Gohan was wearing nothing but his boxers.
"Gohan, where is Goten?" Trunks inquired.
"Back in his room asleep."
After Trunks was gone I asked Gohan where his dad was.
"I'll go get him," he replied.
I sat down on the couch and waited for what seemed like forever. When Goku finally came down I wasted no time.
"Goku you are my last hope, please train me."
"Why do you suddenly need to train?"
"It's a long story and I can't tell you because Gohan is in the room."
"Then my answer is no."
"If I told you with Gohan in the room it would kill him and I can't do that to him."
"Um, guys…I'm right here, and I think I can take it."
"Nothing personal but I need to speak with Goku outside now." I said firmly.
So Goku followed me outside and I told him what I heard Videl say. Such as how she was using Gohan to kill all the saiyans, and how I would be the first killed.
"Why can't Vegeta train you," Goku asked.
I told him the same story that I had told Trunks. I told him what I had told Trunks to do and that I told trunks to try and convince Goten to help him.
"Jeez, you are desperate…Okay, go get your stuff. You will live here for a while."
"Okay, but please don't tell Vegeta."
"I have to or he may die himself."
"I guess if you have to tell him you can."
"Gohan," Goku yelled, "Come and help Rika move in. She will be staying here for a month or so."
"Alright," Gohan said happily, as he walked outside without a shirt on.
"Keep an eye on him," Goku whispered. "Help Trunks and Goten keep Gohan away from Videl until we can come up with some other plan."
"Will do"
Gohan and I were off to get my stuff. I really enjoyed being with him.
"So what have you been doing?" I asked Gohan.
"Not much, how 'bout you?"
"Not much." I said. "Hey, I have an idea. How about we go to the amusement park this Friday night?"
"Ok, but what about my dad?"
"Oh, he won't mind."
"Okay."
We didn't talk the rest of the way there or back. Something was bugging Gohan.
"What's wrong Gohan?"
"I overheard you and Goku…Videl is not evil. She would never turn on me like that, I promise. She would never do that."
"I'll believe you until I have proof not to because you're my "brother" alright? I promise I won't hurt her unless I have a reason to."
"Thanks."
When we walked in the
house Goku greeted us by saying,
"Put your stuff in the guest
room and get outside to start training."
"Dad, can I train too please?" asked Gohan.
"Okay."
"Let's go," I said.
"Hey Goku, wait I have a question."
"Yes?"
"Can I go change first?"
"Go right ahead but hurry."
I hurried to my room and changed into my bikini top and my short leather shorts. I thought to myself, "Gohan will love this look on me."
"Rika!! What do you think you're wearing?" asked the shocked Goku.
"A fighting outfit…why"
"Get inside and ask Chi-Chi for an outfit. But please don't wear that ever to fight in."
So I went inside to find Chi-Chi.
"Chi-Chi, where are you?" I half yelled.
"I am in the kitchen," she answered.
When I walked into the kitchen there was Chi-Chi sitting at the table doing nothing. It was just after breakfast, there was no reason to start lunch. So there was nothing for her to do.
"Chi-Chi, Goku wanted me to ask you if there was an outfit that you have that I could wear to train in."
"Of course, let me go look. You can come if you would like."
"ok, one thing though if you could. Could the outfit you give me be an outfit that Gohan would like to see on me? Please?"
Chi-Chi didn't say anything. Instead she started to head back to her room. I followed her and when I walked in she shut the door after me.
"Rika?"
"Yes?"
"Do you like Gohan? You can tell me. I won't tell anyone without you knowing it."
"Yes, I do. I'm sorry but Gohan is one of the nicest people I know and I know that he is going out with Videl, but I want to show him what he is missing…Me. I really like him and I am sorry if you don't like that but I can't change the way I feel."
"Alright. Wait here."
I waited there for quite a long time before Chi-Chi finally came out of her closet. When she did come out though, she had two outfits with her. One was a maroon Japanese fighting dress like the one Chi-Chi always wore, and the other was a sleeveless form fitting white evening dress trimmed in gold with a slit half way up the leg on the right side.
"This outfit like the one I'm wearing is for training, but the dress is for the dinner that I am inviting you to tonight. Is that alright?"
"It's fine, but are sure…"
"If I wasn't sure would I be doing this?"
"You're right. Thank you so much. I will never forget this."
"Just go show Gohan who you really are."
"I thanked Chi-Chi again and went and changed. She was the greatest for letting me have these.
