Gohan had landed knowing that she was here because her dad wanted her to train and get her muscle mass back and he had stated that the gravity room would do just that. She couldn't figure out why they just couldn't use the hyperbolic time chamber it would be easier and a little quicker in training her muscles. When she had first asked Goku told her no and not to ask again, since it was quicker but she wouldn't gain anything from doing it that way. As Bulma opened the door she smiled at the two and noticed that Gohan was wearing the pink zip up shirt that she wore when she was first came here along with a pair of spandex pants and her ninja boots.
Goku said, "They aren't allowed to take their weapons to school so Gohan left all of her weapons at home plus she will be working on her martial arts with Vegeta so she doesn't need them to begin with. "
Bulma nodded as the two were able to walk in the house as she shut the door. Trunks looked at her and still didn't see anything special except she was walking gracefully with 140 pounds of weights on her and she made it look like it was nothing.
Vegeta nodded as the two came over to him. He noticed the ease that Gohan had and smirked as he told Goku to follow him real quick. As they went into one of the rooms he asked Goku to go and get two more fifty pound weights for Gohan so she had a little bit more of a challenge. Goku nodded he was going to wait a week but he saw what Vegeta wanted to do he knew that between the weights and the Gravity room Gohan's muscle mass would come back quickly but so would her ki abilities.
Goku quickly left but stated he would be back soon. Trunks shook his head as he watched Goku leave with a goofy grin on his face. As Trunks brought out food and asked if she wanted any he was shocked when she mumbled, "Keep that away from me, food evil very evil keep it away."
Bulma burst out laughing since it was not normal for any Saiyan to deny food evil or not. Vegeta gave her a disapprove look since he could tell that she wasn't pleased to be eating large portions and Goku told him about last night and having to force feed her. Gohan watched as Trunks ate food wondering where the hell, did he put all the food.
Vegeta said, "Gohan, how do you expect to get stronger and get muscle mass again if you don't eat right?"
Gohan sighed and replied, "I'm just not hungry Vegeta. I won't force myself to eat just to please two men."
Right when she stated that Goku came back with the two weights and put them in front of Gohan who quickly used her charka to twist the metal into a spiral and took the ones off her arms and put the new ones on.
After she put the weights on she almost fell over since she wasn't expecting the extra weight. As the three walked into the gravity room Gohan wondered how she was going to manage school, training, and homework now. Vegeta noticed that Gohan's scent was getting stronger and thought shit the girl is going into heat and we don't know who her mate is. Goku noticed the same thing as Vegeta and started to worry. He noticed that Gohan didn't notice the scent that she gave off and that worried him. Gohan walked into the gravity room and sat down to start stretching. Vegeta looked at Goku as they slowly moved the gravity up as she stretched. When the gravity was up at three hundred times normal they all got into their fighting stance. Vegeta and Goku were not too shock since her stance was the demon style with her own flare to it.
Gohan was watching them wearily she knew that she could take out her father but she wasn't so sure if she could take them both on with three hundred times normal gravity plus the two hundred extra pounds. Plus she was always weary when it came to a fight. She was thankful that she had learned that lesson when she became a ninja; she knew that when she was younger she waited until the opponent either left an opening or when she snapped. Otherwise she was normally shaking in her boots or running away. Suddenly she got out of her stance and pulled out a blindfold and wrapped it around her eyes and got back into her stance.
With Ino, Sai, Sasuke, and Naruto were finally finished with the blasted entrance exam. Naruto was looking kind of worried since he wasn't the best with written exams. Sasuke was shocked on how hard it actually was he knew the math but the history was really confusing he knew that Sai and Ino also had trouble on the test. When they made it back to the car Sai had pulled out a book that he had borrowed from Gohan. It was on the history of martial arts and was very interesting he was impressed that the only difference from taijutsu and martial arts was that taijutsu also allowed weapons. Ino got in the back while Goten got in her lap and asked, "Chichi, where did Gohan and Goku go?"
Chichi smiled and said, "Oh Goku decided that instead of waiting for you guys they would start training since she has more training to do then you since she has to regain her muscle mass."
Kakashi smiled as he saw the whole thing.
Gohan was having some trouble since she was blindfold but she had been training recently about fighting without the use of her eyes since what good is a fighter if you can't see. She had the idea when she heard about Itachi being blind and still being a better fighter than Sasuke. She knew that she was hitting her sparing partners pretty well considering that it was handicap match already and she made it a bigger one by fighting it blind. She was noticing that each time they moved there was a disruption in the air. When she realized that she was sparing better. Vegeta was impressed that Gohan wanted to fight without her eyes since he knew that it was giving them a huge advantage. He knew that he wouldn't have been able to fight that way. Goku was also happy that his daughter wanted to advance her fighting ability and he could also see how much that would benefit her, if she can't see she could at least still fight.
Bulma and Trunks had been watching from the observation room and were impressed they were worried about Gohan since she wasn't use to the gravity but they could see her fighting capabilities and she was keeping up with both full blood Saiyans without too much problems. When the three finally stopped Vegeta dropped the gravity down back to normal Gohan was on the floor unconscious and bleeding. Goku picked up his daughter and took her to the hospital wing and put her in the medical pod with her bikini on. Bulma and Trunks went to make sure that the two boys also got cleaned up which all they needed was a senzu bean. Goku felt bad but he also knew that Gohan needed the full brutality of the fight, and he was impressed with her determination not only was she able to keep getting back up to fight but she was able to keep up while not being able to see.
When the group made it to Capsule Corps Chichi went up to the door and knocked on it. Trunks opened the door and smiled as he let them in. Kakashi was shocked on how the home looked since he thought that a business and home would have work scattered everywhere but inside it was very homey. Naruto was walking down the hall and noticed the two men eating. He kept walking hopping to find Gohan but didn't see her in the living room or kitchen. He noticed that Sai and Ino were also trying to find her and couldn't. He walked back toward the dining room and noticed that Goku was close to being done eating and decided that he would be the better one to ask the other one just intimidate him a little too much.
He asked, "Goku, where is Gohan at?"
Goku looked up at his food to the clock on the wall and said, "She'll be here in about 15 to 20 minutes."
Chichi sighed she knew the two men would be hard on her but come on can't they have one training session where they weren't trying to beat the hell of each other.
Gohan woke up ten minutes after the others arrived and saw that Bulma, Goku, or Vegeta had left her an outfit she picked it up and smiled it was one from when she was younger. It was purple gi pants that had a red belt, and a purple mid drift shirt that was skin tight. She smirked now she knew that it wasn't any of the others it had to be Piccolo since those were his signature colors and it was the same outfit that she wore when she fought against Vegeta and Nappa, Ginyu force, and Cell. It was also her favorite since it was easy to move in.
As she walked out of the room she could hear talking down the hall and noticed her friends had finally arrived. She walked into the kitchen and got something to snack on and walked into the living room. Ino saw her and smiled at the outfit and thought that it fit her friend's personality perfectly. She wondered if she could get an outfit that was similar.
Goku said, "I see Piccolo came to make sure that you got his outfit once again."
Gohan nodded as her smile grew from a smirk to a full blown out smile. Sasuke wondered who this Piccolo person was since it seems that they were very close. Naruto and Sai were also wondering who they were talking about and what was with the clothes and why would someone give her their colors. Vegeta smirked as he noticed the look that Gohan's friends have and thought this is going to be fun.
Sai walked over to Gohan and said, "Hey hag, you weren't supposed to leave us you were supposed to wait for us to come out before you come here with us."
Gohan smirked an evil smirk and sweetly said, "Vegeta can I please use the gravity room real quick I need to remind my teammate here the reason why they fear me."
Vegeta nodded and said, "You know how it works so go ahead maybe they would like to watch a full blown battle first between me and you."
Gohan shook her head and dragged Sai towards the gravity room to give Sai the beating.
Goku and Chichi were worried so they said, "Gohan, don't you dare turn on the gravity keep it off."
Gohan sighed but nodded since she knew that Sai wouldn't stand any heavy gravity like she was.
Naruto asked, "Um, you told her about heavy gravity how high do, you have her fighting at?"
Goku said, "Well when we trained for Cell at the age of nine it was only x20 times normal gravity, though today we fought her at about x300 times normal gravity along with 200 pounds instead of the 140 pounds that she had on before."
The three kids looked at Goku and Vegeta in shock while Kakashi looked like they were crazy since it didn't seem likely.
In the gravity room Sai looked at the building while wondering why he always calls Gohan hag when he knew that she was going to kill him. Gohan sighed as she wished that she could turn on the gravity but knew that with her beating him; with the 200 extra pounds would be enough for him and got into a stance. Sai also went into a stance since he knew that Gohan wanted to do this beating as a fight and for that he was grateful for. The two started the spar quickly charging at each other without a care in the world. Sakura was a little quicker since she knew how to use her ki to move quickly and sometimes leaving an after image. Sai was having a blast since he noticed her emotions were showing. He was glad that she found something that can show her passion in without people caring.
Sai had always worried about her since most people seem to put her down as the weakest of the Konoha 12 when in reality she was one of the best medic ninja's they had and she never let her teammates down even when she inflicted some of her anger on them she always healed them afterwards. He also had what you would call a crush on her; he had seen her in the village a few times and followed her when she went training. He was impressed with what he saw so when Naruto came back and they needed a teammate he quickly volunteered for it. Maybe that was why he was always teasing her. He wanted to ask her out but couldn't figure out how to.
Gohan was also thinking about Sai, she had thought about the nickname of course he had always called her that from the first day, but her mom did say that some men happen to tease the girls they liked. Suddenly she felt a strange pull and couldn't figure out what was going on she wanted to pull away from it but at the same time follow it. She quickly decided to follow the pull out of the gravity room and down the hall it was leading her to the living room where she tackled her giant green friend.
Piccolo was just let in by Vegeta and he was talking to them about how they were going to get Gohan back into shape. When all of a sudden Gohan flew out of nowhere, and tackled Piccolo, who caught her and stopped their decent. Gohan started to snuggle into Piccolo much to his displeasure but at the same time accept his fate. Vegeta and Goku were smirking thinking where at least that's the least of our problems. Gohan found her mate if she is this willing to show public affection to Piccolo and take his wrath from it. Chi-Chi wasn't too pleased that her daughter was going to be mated to that monster as she had always called him but knew better than say anything.
Piccolo was finally annoyed and growled, "Gohan, get off me this instant you know how much I despise being touched especially in public."
Gohan jumped out of his arms and quickly said, "Sorry to anger you Mr. Piccolo, I don't know what came over me."
Piccolo said, "Don't worry about it kid."
Gohan's friends were still in shock at seeing a seven foot giant green man who at the moment was still glaring at Gohan that they were sure that if looks could kill she would be dead. Gohan just looked at him with an innocent smile that always seemed to warm the coldest of hearts. She used this smile on Piccolo more than once when she was a kid. Piccolo frowned he knew that smile and wasn't going to cave not this time since Vegeta was present and wouldn't let him live it down if he did.
Gohan walked toward the kitchen to get a small snack since she was all of a sudden starved. She knew that it was more than likely from the work out that she had done and the little spar with Sai. She had a feeling that her dad and Vegeta both knew that her appetite would come back if they gave her a full workout. When she walked into the kitchen she went to the fridge and noticed a couple of plates with a note saying Gohan on it. She smiled and put them on the table and started to eat at full speed. Naruto sat down beside his heart sister and asked, "Gohan, why was that green man mad at you for tackling him like that?"
Gohan who had finished eating replied, "His name is Piccolo and he hates public affection though I do happen to be able to get away with doing it most of the time but if others are around he gets all annoyed and tells me to stop. Though were you guys in shock from me tackling him or just him in general?"
Naruto replied, "I believe it's him in general since we have seen you tackle people before like Kakashi when he's late or Ino when you two go shopping."
Gohan grinned and said, "But you guys have seen Kisame and his is a six foot five, blue skin shark, and you don't seem scared of him?"
Naruto laughed and replied, "Maybe that's because we always end up fighting for our lives at the time that we don't seem to stay shocked with him."
Gohan and Naruto both burst out laughing at that since they both knew that what Naruto stated was true but then again Gohan was right too about Kisame being similar to Piccolo.
Out in the living room Sai had finally appeared and didn't look too badly hurt since the fight didn't really start or finished. Yeah he had a few bruises but not as many as he normally would get from Gohan which also told him she was in a playful mood and didn't take his jibe seriously. Vegeta looked at the young man and smirked since Gohan had told him that he was the only one besides Naruto that she could beat up without a complaint and get up like nothing happened. Vegeta was impressed now that he got to see it firsthand.
Goku walked up to Piccolo and asked, "You do happen to know why Gohan jumped you right?"
Piccolo nodded and said, "It seems like the fates hate me even more than I originally thought and decided that I was her mate. Yes I could tell that she is in heat and I can also tell that she is going to tackle me even more now until we do the mating ceremony which I rather wait until we get her back to full strength but we can't wait that long I say we use the dragon balls we normally don't make selfish wishes this would be the one and only time. "
Goku nodded as they went to go and get the dragon radar from Bulma so they could wish for Gohan to be at full power again. He didn't like the idea but they had no choice it had to be done.
After Bulma gave them her dragon radar the two men flew off to get the dragon balls. They weren't into much of a hurry since they both didn't want to have the mating ceremony done too soon plus Piccolo had to figure out a few things for the ritual anyways. Piccolo asked Goku all what the mating ceremony required and what he needed to do it. As Goku told him everything that he would need to do Goku took out a double bladed dagger and gave it to Piccolo.
Goku said, "Vegeta gave it to me to give to whoever was Gohan's mate they would need it since part of the mating ceremony you're going to have to cut both of your wrist at the same time just make sure that you don't cut too deep just enough to draw blood and smash your wrist together so that the blood touches."
Piccolo nodded as he took the dagger and put it on his belt so the blade didn't accidently stab him.
Gohan, Sai, and Ino were having a study session. Gohan was tutoring Ino and Sai on the martial arts history and just World History in general. Naruto and Sasuke were training with Vegeta and Kakashi watching them. Vegeta wasn't impressed all he saw was two boys doing fancy finger work. Vegeta finally had enough and said, "Enough you guys want to see some real action follow me to the gravity room and watch a real battle."
As he walked in he didn't even say anything to Gohan as he grabbed her by her gi collar and dragged her to the gravity room without explanation while her friends followed. Ino and Sai were wondering what was going on while Sasuke thought this isn't going to be much of a battle.
Once the two made it in the gravity room with the other five ninja's saw Trunks standing in front of the control system and were looking through a glass window. As they stood in front of the window they noticed both Vegeta and Gohan stretching out their muscles.
Vegeta shouted, "Trunks make the gravity up to three hundred times normal."
Trunks nodded and pushed some buttons to the number his dad wanted.
As the two felt the gravity increase Vegeta stayed still but Gohan almost fell with the added weight but brought out her ki to keep standing. As they both got into their fighting style the five ninja's were shocked to see Gohan's they have fought alongside her before and spared against her but never had they seen this stance before. All of a sudden they shot at each other without a care.
Trunks said, "It's known as the demon style; it was the first style that she learned when she was four years old and is one of two masters' in the world that knows the style. It was the only style that she likes using since it brings out her speed and is the easiest for her to maneuver her body and ki. She also happens to know two others which is Turtle and Saiyan style but she hasn't mastered them yet as they require different aspects of fighting. Demon style focuses on speed, Turtle style focuses on defense, and Saiyan focuses on power. Gohan's greatest strength is her speed which is the balance between defense and power. Goku once stated to her that what good is all the power in the world if you can't hit your enemy."
Gohan was having a blast as she used her speed to her advantage and would attack and move away. Vegeta smirked he remembered her fighting like this when she was younger and it was good for her since she was always able to move under the defenses, but now that she was older and somewhat taller at the height of 5'2. He was still taller at the height of 5'5 so he knew that he had to watch her so that she didn't sneak under his defenses. The two kept attacking each other using only their legs and fist which wasn't going well since both of them were blocking each attack. Gohan didn't notice that Vegeta had a smirk on his face until she was hit with a ki blast unsuspectingly. She ended up flying into the hard metal wall where she climbed up and dodged the next ki blast as she made one of her own and threw it at him. Vegeta just grabbed it in his hand and extinguished it without much problems what he didn't noticed was Gohan coming up behind him and kick him the back. He hit the wall with a sickening crunch which made Gohan run up to him and noticed that he was out cold.
Gohan said, "Trunks shut off the gravity your dad is out for the count."
As they left for the hospital wing Gohan checked Vegeta over and noticed that he had a broken nose and a few fractured ribs. She flew up and grabbed the pouch that had the senzu beans and gave one to him and noticing the small cuts and bruises she had ate one since she didn't feel like healing either one of them.
Vegeta smirked as he walked off to go train.
Gohan went to her room that she had here since she was a good family friend and grabbed a purple mid-drift and blue jeans. She put them on and walked back to the living room where she noticed her mom and friends were sitting and talking. They were all sharing stories from when she was kid up to her teenage life. Goten and Trunks were listening in like everything they heard was one big secrete. She smiled as she sat down and listen as well.
Gohan said, "Hey mom do you happen to know where Piccolo and dad went? I wanted to ask Piccolo something but I don't want to use the mental connection I have with him."
Chichi angrily said, "Your dad and that monster went to go find the dragon balls. I think that they are going to wish for you to be at full strength since you're going into heat and need to mate."
The ninja's were shocked they had heard of Gohan having a mate but they had never stated names until this minute and they weren't sure what they meant by heat; they knew animals went into heat but they were pretty sure humans didn't. Gohan nodded since that was what she wanted to talk about the whole mate thing with him.
Then she said, "Mom, how many times do I have to tell you not to call Mr. Piccolo a monster? He has protected me constantly when I was kid, hell he even died to protect me when I was five and have proven that he has changed from the evil that he used to be."
Chi-Chi shouted, "Don't you dare talk to me like that Gohan. He kidnapped you when you were four and made you want to fight instead of studying like you were supposed to be doing."
Gohan glared at her mother as she sat back down and decided to calm down before she lost control of her ki. Just as she was calm Naruto had to make a commotion.
Naruto screamed, "WHAT GOHAN, CAN'T HAVE A MATE?"
Gohan replied, "Naruto shut up and let me explain about what a heat and mate is. Since I know you have no idea what my family have been talking about. Okay as you may know since Kakashi might have told you I'm half Saiyan and half human, meaning that I am half alien. Saiyans come to age at the age of sixteen which means that we are ready to find our mates. To find our mate females' go into heat and males' go into rut. We know who our mate when we first meet them at the age of sixteen and after we mate we are considered adults. I knew Piccolo since I was three years old and today when I jumped him showed everyone that I was his mate. I use to do it to annoy him when I was younger but stopped it after I was six years old."
Naruto replied, "Gohan I won't let you mate with him not until I talk to him and tell him what he's got himself into."
Gohan said, "Naruto, you are not going to scare him off. He knew me when I was a whiny brat and that didn't scare him off. He isn't going to hurt me he only did that for six months until I learn the concept of dodge. I'm the only one that he actually likes and will deal with on a daily bases."
Chichi noticed the time and decided to leave with Gohan and Goten since she knew Goku and Piccolo would be gone for a couple of weeks. Gohan walked outside she wasn't upset with her mom anymore as she took to the air. She really hated being stuck in a car if she could help it. She made it to the house in thirty minutes and went to take a shower and get ready for bed. She was out before her head hit the pillow. She didn't even budge when Goten lay next to her and used her arm as a pillow. Goten had gotten the idea since he lost his sister before he was born that if he didn't use her as a pillow she would disappear when he woke up.
