Chapter 2- Opposites
Gohan awoke to the sound of his alarm clock going off noisily. Giving a loud groan, he reached over and pressed the 'Off' button and slowly got up from his warm slumber. His eyes opened warily to the sight of his room. A few droplets of sunlight flowed through the room, although at that moment, the demi-saiyan wasn't interested at all in the beautiful sight. All he wanted to do was hop back into his warm bed and go back to his dream. But of course, he couldn't, and was forced instead to get up to get ready for another day of school.
Silently he went across the room, as not to disturb his younger brother Goten who lay asleep across the room in his bed. He smiled softly at the sight of Goten asleep then closed the door behind him, the click of the door sounding through the empty hallway.
Gohan started toward the bathroom, all the same time noticing that his alarm clock had gone off today. Normally, it wouldn't go off at all and it resulted in him almost being late to school. But somehow today, it had indeed went off, and his day was already beginning to look up. Smiling to himself, he walked into the bathroom and hit the light switch. The bright light blinded him for a moment but he regained his composer and reached out for the toothpaste. He opened the cap and stared at it in wonder. Right about now would have been the time in which the toothpaste would have came blasting out at him and squirting him in the eye. Surprisingly though, it hadn't!
Gohan tilted his head in confusion. His luck was beginning to become unbelievable. Nevertheless, he gave a quick shrug and began brushing his teeth; all the same time humming a cheerful tune. Maybe today he wouldn't get tortured!

Videl tossed and turned in her large queen sized bed. This way and that way she went, unable to fall back asleep. She couldn't explain it but something had woken her up in the middle of the night, like some kind of Godly force. It sounded strange, but now, she couldn't get back to sleep because of it.
Giving an irritable grunt, she slid out of bed and descended into her bathroom. The light flooded through the room and made its way to her eyes, blinding them in the process. She cursed and reached over for the toothpaste, eyes still closed. The sound of glass crashing to the floor sounded throughout the bathroom and Videl cursed louder. She only hoped that hadn't been her priced marble glass duck. It was one of her favorite items that she owned...
Videl opened her eyes and looked to the floor. There lay her mable glass duck, now shattered into many pieces, on the bathroom floor. She sighed and began picking up the pieces despondently.

"A little harsh, don't you think?" Mr. Popo advised the guardian of earth.
Dende shook his head. "Are you kidding me? That was priceless!"
Mr. Popo sighed and slowly began walking away from the obviously out-of-his-mind guardian. He could only hope his 'Videl torturing' wouldn't go too far...
Dende had been all too lucky that day Gohan almost snapped. It had taken Piccolo to bring the teenage demi-saiyan out of his rage of wanting to kill a certain earth guardian. Mr. Popo shivered fearfully at the mere thought of the day and looked back at the now grinning Dende. He sighed once more and began taking off for his garden. Boy was Dende lucky Videl couldn't fly, he had a feeling she would want to pay him a visit if this kept up...

Gohan entered the school building in a cheerful mood. So far, nothing bad had happened to him the entire morning. He had gotten to eat breakfast, without Goten gulfing his meal down first, and had arrived at school on time instead of late. He walked through the hallways and to his locker where he dropped off a couple of books before heading toward his first period class.
Erasa and Sharpner stood near the classroom building when Gohan walked up.
"Hey guys!" He called cheerfully.
Sharpner put an eyebrow up. "Unbelievable Erasa, nerd-boy here isn't late!"
Erasa poked Sharpner in the ribs. "Stop teasing him Sharpner!" She peered back over at Gohan. "But you are right; he isn't late..."
"Yeah, my alarm clock actually went off today," Gohan replied proudly. "I guess my luck is starting to change."
Sharpner rolled his eyes slightly just as the school bell rang. Erasa looked around, "Where's Videl? She should be here by now."
Gohan looked around the hallway as well and shrugged. "Maybe she's off fighting crime or something."
Erasa nodded slowly. "Yeah...I guess..."
The three started for the classroom, Gohan lagging behind. He couldn't help but wonder where Videl really was.

Videl looked back at her watch with a sigh and slowed down to a walking pace. It was no use running anymore, the school bell had rung a minute ago and she was late.
It was strange though, she had woken up on time, and everything had seemed to go according to schedule. She couldn't figure out what had messed up her timing. It was weird. But if that wasn't enough, here she was going to school looking like trash.
Her raven black hair which was usually combed neatly and pulled back into two pigtails were now sticking this way and that way due to her no-sleep session last night. And to top it all off, she hadn't found anything to wear to school. To her utter shock and surprise, the only thing that lay in her closet was a hot pink tank top and tight fitting blue jeans. It had been a gift from Erasa as a birthday present, one that she swore she'd never wear. But now, here she was, going to school wearing the hideous thing. She couldn't figure it out though. Just how had all her clothes disappeared from her closet? She could have swore when she looked in her closet the other day, it had been full of her normal school clothes, but when she had woken up this morning, only that one outfit remained.
Videl tugged on her pink shirt which was currently riding up on her, exposing her stomach. That was one thing she hated, shirts that rose up on you. She pulled it back down and wished she had a sweater or jacket to cover up her shirt. If riding up on her wasn't enough, the shirt was tight fitting, another thing she couldn't stand. For as long as she could remember, she had been a tomboy and loved to wear loose fitting comfortable clothes. Now here she was stuck in clothes that looked like something Erasa would wear.
She sighed as she made her way onto the campus of Orange Star High School and to the front office. The school secretary sat behind the desk, munching away on various snack items. She peered over at Videl and gave a grin through her stained sugary packed teeth. "Hello Videl, how may I help you?"
"I'm late, can I have a pass?" Videl answered.
The lady nodded and whipped out a white pass, "The reason?"
"I'm not sure even I know," Videl replied in a slight laugh. "I was just...late." She crossed her arms and rubbed them. All she wanted to do was to get to class. The sooner this day ended the better.
The secretary looked up at Videl with an eyebrow arched. "I'm sorry Videl, but you know the rules. If you don't have an excuse, it's detention."
Videl felt her mouth drop. Her in detention?! It was beyond belief! She was Videl Satan, daughter of Hercule, the World Champion! There was no way she could get detention!
"But, I didn't mean to be late, I just..." Videl started then stopped. "Can't we just forget about this, just this once?" She smiled kindly. No one could resist the Satan charm...
The secretary shook her head, "I'm sorry Miss Satan but rules are rules." She handed Videl the detention slip much to Videl's surprise.
Videl took it and glanced at it unbelievably. She, Videl Satan, had gotten detention. This was no doubt starting to become the worst day of her life...
Author Notes
There's chapter two. Thanks to those who reviewed chapter one and sorry I took a while to put this chapter out. Also, I know that Dende is really OOC here but this is a humor Fic as well as a romance Fic. I do it for the humor.
