School was just about to be over, and Gohan could not wait.  His father and little brother were at home waiting for him to arrive for a nice relaxing spar. Come on, come on! His thoughts yelled at the clock.

            "Before you guy's start thinking about what you are doing tonight," The teacher started.

            To late, Gohan thought.

            "I would like you to have your parents sign these release forms for the class field trip," The teacher handed out slips to each student.

            I feel an overused, stupid plot coming on…Gohan's internal dialogue said as he took a form.

            "We will be leaving for Capsule Corporation in the morning.  Please pack accordingly.

            Dende, I'm going to kill you.

            "This one isn't my fault!"  Dende yelled indignantly.

            They stood around the bus, seven dozen strong, all waiting to see the famous building. 

            They boarded the bus, Gohan dodged a bunch of questions from Videl, mainly about Saiyaman and him being the same person, and then Videl did some weird feminine thing that caught Gohan's attention, and they grew closer to a relationship. 

            They arrived and were ushered into the building by a jovial man in a red space age suit. 

            "Capsule Corp is the leading producer of technology in the world, and the briefs have become on of the strongest families in the world because of it." He said, showing off the various points of the building.

            Gohan was getting suspicious.  Bulma, Trunks, Vegeta, or Yhamcha were nowhere to be seen.  Raising a hand, Gohan asked, "Will we be meeting Bulma?"

            "No," The guide said with a little question in his voice, "Bulma is far to busy a woman to see a simple field trip class."

            "Oh," Gohan said.

            He kept looking around the entire tour, expecting Trunks to pop out and ask how he defeated Cell again, Vegeta wanting to spar, or Yhamcha asking about Videl.  Nothing.

            They were walking out of the building.  The field trip was over and nothing had happened.  No villains.  No storms to keep them over night. No Saiyans to ruin his life.

            Just as he walked out the door, he looked back, expecting they all had waited to pounce on him as he left, but there was nothing.

            "What is this," He wondered out loud, "Some kind of joke?"
