RETURN TO ANIME

Disclaimer: See first chapter.

AN: Well, welcome back to another exciting chapter of Return to Anime! Sorry for the long wait, I've had writer's block for this story and haven't been able to do anything with it for awhile now. So, to make up for it I'll be updating with two chapters this time. After this I'll be back on story and I'll be able to go forward with the story line. If anyone who signed up for this wants more of a show than the chapter their in, then you have to write something of your own. I'm not putting anyone in more than one chapter unless it's in passing. If you want to have more of a part then please feel free to email me and we'll talk about it. Talk to you all soon. Now, on with the story.


Chapter 6 part C: Enter Jasmin

(Jasmin)

'Ugh! My parents can be such a pain sometimes! Jasmin, do your homework. Jasmin, remember to keep your grades up if you want to get into a good college. Did they even ask me if I even wanted to go to college? NO! I swear I could just…' She allowed her thoughts to trail off as she finally reached Central Park.

Jasmin usually didn't come out this late at night, but tonight she had needed to get away from the house. Her parents were very strict, insisting she study overly much to make sure she got into a good college after high school. She knew they meant well, but making her do so much extra work was doing nothing for her other than helping her commit social suicide.

After only a few minutes of walking Jasmin's anger had nearly dissipated. She was almost ready to head back home when she saw this bright light from near a bunch of trees. Curious, she jogged over to check it out. She arrived just in time to see these two people, a guy and a girl, get sucked into this swirling vortex of doom.

"Holy freakin' flying buttmonkeys! (I'm sorry Jasmin; I just had to use that.) What the heck was that!"

A moment later she found herself on her rump as a boy around her age was flung out of the self-same vortex straight on top of her.

"Oomph!"

"Hurk!" The boy said as he also hit the ground.

"Get offa me you pervert!"

He immediately leapt off of her and backward against a tree. As Jasmin got to her feet she gave the 'pervert' a once over in case she needed to tell the police about him. He appeared to be not much older than she was, but he was taller and more muscular than she'd ever hope to be. He had wild black hair that stuck up in odd angles and even darker black eyes. He looked at her with caution and a bit of concern, but mostly he just seemed to be confused.

"I'm sorry, miss. I didn't mean to do anything inappropriate, I just fell. I hope you'll accept my sincerest apologies."

Jasmin was taken aback by his manners. Most Central Park perverts didn't have those sorts of manners. They were just rude perverts. He confused her even more when he bowed low in front of her in a show of apology. This was getting weirder and weirder by the minute. Who was this guy? He looked so familiar, but she just couldn't put her finger on where she'd seen him before.

Tossing her long black hair back over her shoulder she said, "Whatever, pervert. Just don't try anything funny and we'll be straight. I know I'm cute and all, but you didn't have to sit on me to prove it."

The boy's hand traveled up to the back of his head in a show of embarrassment as he said, "You are cute, but I really didn't mean to land on you. I just sorta popped out here. I'm Son Gohan, what's your name?"

Jasmin's eyes bogged out of her head. Gohan? As in Dragonball Z's Gohan? No freakin' way! He couldn't be, could he? She gave him another look over and realized that he really did look like the Gohan from the show. This was just too weird for words.

Deciding to just go along with what was happening Jasmin said, "My name's Jasmin Anderson."

Gohan nodded at her and gave her his best Son smile. "Well then… Uh… Where am I exactly? Last thing I remember was being sucked into this portal looking thing."

"You're in Central Park, New York City. You're a ways from home, Gohan. You're all the way in the United States."

"Hmm… Hey, this is where Jeri came from originally! I can't believe I finally get to see this place. I wonder if Jeri is here? Kami-sama, I sure hope so. I'm not sure how long things can stay together back home without her."

"………"

Before she could find the words to say to him her cell phone started vibrating at her hip.

"Ahh! VI-BRA-TION!" She scrambled around before grabbing the offending device and answering it. "Hello, Jasmin here. Jess? Hey girl! Where have you been? Everyone's been worried sick about-

You're where? Home? Sure, okay, yeah, I'll come over right away just let me say bye to my company. Who is it? I dunno, some pervert who claims to be-

Yeah, I'm in the park, why? I know its dark, Jess, but the parental figures were on my ass again tonight. See you soon, bye. Bye. Bye. BYE! Dangit, Jess! GOODBYE!"

(Click) She hung up the phone then turned back to the guy who claimed to be a guy from one of her favorite animes. She took a deep breath, then another before she was able to form the words she needed to say.

"So… You're Gohan, huh? I've heard of you. If you're really him, then prove it."

Gohan looked sheepishly at her as he spoke. "Prove that I am who I say I am? How do you want me to do that?"

"Well, fly or something cool like that."

"I can do that! I just need a minute to… Hey, wait a second. How do you know who I am? As far as I know nobody outside of Japan knows anything about the Special Forces or any of our battles."

Jasmin rolled her eyes. "Well, duh, Mr. Pervert, you were only on national television a gazillion times."

He blinked at her a moment then said, "Oh, I didn't know that. Okay then, I guess I'll just make my point then."


(Gohan)

Today had just not been his day. Everyone was so upset over the disappearance of the children. Mr. Piccolo barely responded to anything anyone did. It broke his heart to see his childhood hero in such a sorry state. Piccolo's family had been his whole life. It was such a surprise when he had told everyone that he'd become a father. Nobody had been more surprised than he had.

Kim-chan was a miracle worker. She'd made something that everyone thought was impossible happen. She'd given Mr. Piccolo a purpose again. She'd given him someone to protect. He'd never have to feel useless again.

Then everything fell apart. Kim disappeared from the Martial Arts Tournament after her fight with Videl. Then Danny disappeared as well. Everyone had been up in arms over the entire thing. Half of the children belonging to the Special Forces were gone. His mother and father were scared to death that something would happen to Goten as well.

He'd been unable to stand all the negative emotions in the air any longer so he'd left to find everyone's children. He'd only flown a little ways away from Capsule Corporation when he'd been drawn into a portal and flung into the young woman he now stood before.

She was actually pretty cute. At five seven she was almost a good head shorter than he was. She had long black hair braided down to her back and bright green eyes.

He was just about to prove his point to her when the portal before opened up once again and sucked both of them into it. Maybe he hadn't found the kids, but he'd found Jeri's world so maybe he could figure out a way to get back here after this and bring both her and Kim home. One could only hope.


That's it for this chapter.

Sorry for the long wait.

Hope I got your personality right, Jasmin.

Next up is Sakura, then its back to the main story line.

Ja till later everyone.
