Summery: Gohan goes on a school trip with his class to an archeological dig on another continent. How will he be Saiyaman in the city and Gohan at the dig site without anyone suspecting? How will he hide his secret when serious trouble erupts at the dig site and Saiyaman must make an appearance? Will Videl suspect him for who he really is?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gohan wakes up when the bus begins to run over more and more bumps. He had fallen asleep almost as soon as he had taken his seat on the bus. They had already got their things set up in their hotel rooms. Gohan smiled at the thought of him sharing a room with several of the other guys in his class, instead of his brother who had sparring dreams in his sleep and beat him up at night.
Suddenly he was reminded of the reason that he fell asleep. The girl next to him was still talking at ninety miles per hour! She had been like that for the last twenty minutes! Was it ever going to stop? He wished he hadn't been unlucky enough to have been seated by this girl who insisted on holding onto his arm as if he would try an run away.
Suddenly the bus came to a stop at the dig site, and he thanked Dende as he ran off the bus as if he were on fire. Once outside he was joined by Videl, Erasa, and Sharpener. Relief washed over his face as the horde of girls that had been following him around backed away once Videl stepped up next to him. Then, in an unexpected moment, Bull joined them.
"Hey Gohan!" he called out, trying to get through the mass of girls that were making their way away from Videl, yet not wanting to get too far away from Gohan. Gohan looked up and smiled.
"Hey Bull." Gohan said as Bull finally made his way to them.
"You know Bull?" asked Videl.
"Yeah we met on the plane." Gohan said. Videl shot a glare at Erasa for abandoning her post.
Sharpener glared at Bull a moment, since he was one of the only ones able to win against him in a fight, but then relaxed a bit.
Suddenly the teacher and chaperones called for the classes attention. A man that was obviously a tour guide stepped up in front of the class. He was in his forties and slightly round, a heavy mustache and beard on his face. His clothes looked like they were meant for a safari or something. His smile was a mixture of not wanting to be dealing with the class, and simply spooked out for some reason.
"Good day class." he spoke in slightly hesitant Japanese. "I am your tour guide for today. Before we begin our tour today, I must warn you that the things you are going to see are not for the weak of stomach. It seems that we have uncovered many dead bodies, and that this site was once a great battle field for a horrible battle. Who will still come?" he asked.
The entire class let out a few mumbles about how they would come. The tour guide walked away, followed by the class. They entered the dig site, and were almost immediately surrounded by the skeletons of warriors still in their corroded armors. Many of the students began to make gagging noises, getting sick by simply looking at the sheer number of bodies, or smelling the air.
Videl was one of the nervous ones in the class. She looked at her friends for their reactions. Erasa looked almost terrified and clung to Gohan's arm strong enough to bruise someone. Sharpener looked just a tad bit green with sickness. Bull seemed like he was trying to pay attention to the tour guide in order to not notice the obvious carnage that happened here over a thousand years ago.
However, when she looked at Gohan, she noticed something. He didn't seem all that bothered by the bodies surrounding them. Even Erasa's death hold on his arm didn't seem to bother him at all. Instead his eyes were focused on the cave entrance that they were approaching.
Gohan starred at the entrance in concentration. He hardly noticed the bodies surrounding him at all. He had seen to much carnage in his life to be bothered by a battle that had happened over a thousand years ago. Instead he was bothered by the sheer power of the dark ki that emanated from the cave. He could tell that it was just a residual ki, left by something that had been locked away in there for a very long time.
As he listened to the account of how the archeologists found the door, and how it came about being opened, he frowned. It was obvious to him that what had been sealed away in the cave was now loose, and he couldn't sense it at all. He didn't like the thought of something so powerful being on the loose, even though he knew that Vegeta could handle what ever it was. Thoughts of what ever it was attacking the class and forcing him to show who he was filled his mind for a moment.
"This area was clearly the site of a horrible battle over a thousand years ago. It appears now that a small army attacked this cave and was wiped out. There is no evidence of the army that fought against them. Inside the cave are hundreds more dead bodies. They are gathered in piles and their armors are stripped from them, gathered in another pile not too far away from them. Once again, there is no evidence of the army that attacked them.
"We are still exploring the cave, but so far have found little beyond a large pile of treasures that we believe was taken from the dead bodies." said the tour guide. "We are not allowed to go too close to the cave entrance, and no one will be allowed inside there until we have deemed it safe to be viewed by the public."
With that he ended the tour and began to lead the class back to the bus, afraid that they would mess something up by just being around the site. Videl still watched Gohan's reactions to all of this. To her it looked like there was something on his mind, but it wasn't the bodies or the thought of the treasures in the cave.
Suddenly as they neared the bus, Videl's watch went off. She groaned as she held it up to her head and pressed the button to answer the call.
"Yes?" she said in a tired voice, somewhat worn out from the plane flight.
"Yes, hello? Is the Videl Satan?" came a somewhat panicked voice over the watch.
"Yes, this is. Who is this?" she asked.
"This is the police chief of the Diaryprincess city police force. We were told that you would be here for the week. We have a Situation at the Mcdarold stadium. It's been taken over by the Green Whale gang! They're holding the entire stadium hostage and are demanding several hundred million dollars and enough transport jet capsules for them to get away and passage to another continent. We need your help!" the man pleaded.
"Alright, I'm coming. Give the address." she said as she went running off, and hopped in her chopper.
Gohan made his way away from the group while everyone was listening to Videl's watch, trying to make out what was being said. His excellent saiyan hearing heard every word. Quickly he got behind the bus, where no one could see him. He performed the split form and one form walked back to the others, while the other ran for cover faster than human eyes could see.
His second form ran behind some building and got ready to activate his watch. Suddenly it hit him that he couldn't go as Saiyaman, because Videl would be suspicious about why Saiyaman was here. He quickly pressed the blue button, and the saiyan armor covered his body in a flash of light.
He looked around quickly, and noticed a white bandana and a pair of sunglasses lying on a garbage can nearby. He grabbed them and placed them over his hair and eyes. He smiled to himself, thinking that there was no way anyone could recognize him now. He took to the air, following Videl's ki signature.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Videl pilots her chopper closer to the stadium. As she gets closer, the group of guards on the ground shooting at the police spot her chopper, and open fire with their automatic weapons. Videl manages to dodge their gun fire long enough to get onto the roof, where there are no guards.
Almost as soon as she lands, men with guns come bursting through the doors to the roof stairs. They go to open fire on her, but she jumps from the chopper and flips over their heads, kicking out as she does. Her foot caught one of the men's chin and sent him flying into the air.
Videl landed easily and punches one man in the back of his knee, causing him to fall backwards. As he does she slams her fist down on his face, sending him to cement rooftop harder, knocking him out. Then she kicks out and nails another man in the side, knocking him over and sending his gun out of his hands.
Videl jumps into the air again, twirling, and kicks the fourth man in the face. As she lands she punches the last man in the stomach, then face as he bends over in pain. Acting quickly she lashes out and kicks the face of the man she had knocked over, sending him into unconsciousness.
Bending over she picks up the walkie-talkie of one of the men, listening to the reports of the various Green Whale gang members. She then makes her way inside after hearing that the leader is in the private box seats of the mayor, who he holds hostage. Quickly, but cautiously she began to make her way there.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gohan flew to the stadium quickly. The gang members on the ground spotted him and fired at him. He didn't even bother to dodge, letting the bullets bounce off the armor harmlessly, only moving his head now and then to keep the sunglasses and bandanna from being hit. Finally he landed on the ground, in front of the gang members.
Moving faster then the eye could see, he lightly struck each of them, sending them flying onto the walls of the stadium unconscious. The police watched on in awe as the gang members that had been shooting at them moments before, flew into the walls at incredible speeds from a unseen force that was moving too fast for them to see.
Suddenly a large van came tearing around the corner, and the doors opened with men sticking their heads out and firing their guns at Gohan as he had stopped. Gohan raised an eyebrow as the bullets bounced off him and the van came charging at him full speed. He held out his hand, forming a ki barrier at his hand's open palm. The van crashed into the barrier and stopped instantly, sending the men flying forward into the barrier, knocking them out cold and breaking some of their bones.
Just as that was done, Gohan disappeared into the building at superhuman speed. The police began to storm the building when they recovered from the shock. As they went into the stadium, they found only unconscious men and freed hostages as they went.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yamcha sat on the bench in the locker room with the rest of the baseball players of his team that was now being held hostage. He would have already began to fight back, but he was afraid that the Green Whale gang would start to kill the fans and other hostages if he fought back. He would need some help to get this done fast enough to avoid the loss of lives.
That's when he felt the familiar ki outside, attacking the gang members. He smiled to himself and flared his own ki to get Gohan's attention, then knocked out the gang members watching him and the team in the locker room faster then anyone could see. Smirking at his team, he rushed out of the doors and into the hall.
In the hall were at least eight people on each side of him, each holding a automatic weapon. When they saw him come out of the room, they opened fire creating a cross fire that would have wounded, if not killed, several of them. Yamcha cast a quick smirk and caught all the bullets, dropping to the ground to catch the next one.
This continued until the they ran out of ammunition. Flashing out of their vision for a moment, they each only saw a fist or foot strike them in the face before they fell to the floor unconscious. Yamcha dusts off his hands as he lets out a Vegeta like laugh at the men, then runs at super speed down the halls, taking down gang members and freeing hostages as he goes.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Videl stops for a moment as rushed reports come over the walkie-talkie. She listens carefully, barely able to make out was the men are shouting into their own walkie-talkies. She hears something about a crazed maniac in strange armor and a bandanna beating up men as he goes, and an escaped baseball player fighting back too. The reports come over fast as the two men seam to be on opposite sides of the stadium, but are fast approaching each other, quickly then should be humanly possible. Videl can clearly make out the fear in the men's voices.
She turns down the volume for now and approaches the next corner. Peaking around she sees thee men guarding the doors to the mayor's box seats that the leader of the Green Whale gang is in holding him hostage. She backs away, knowing that she must take them out with as little sound as possible, so as to keep anyone from hearing them and shooting the mayor in a panic. Thinking quickly, she looked upward for a moment.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gohan came to the mayor's box seats from one of the two halls that joined with the hall that it's entrance was in. Yamcha approached from the other hall. They both peeked around the corner at the same time, spotting the three guards. Silently flaring their energy in agreement, they took the three guards down before they could blink, not making a sound.
They opened the door of the box seats room. There stood the large, bulky ugly man that was the gang leader with the mayor tied up behind him. In the corners of the room stood the other various gang members with their guns now pointed at the two.
The two attacked and dropped the guards in the blink of an eye, but backed away from the leader, Gohan pulling Yamcha back. Yamcha looked up in confusion, before Gohan winked at him. Suddenly Videl dropped out of the vent just above the leader's head.
Videl swung out of the vent, holding on with her hands, and kicked her feet into the face of the large gang leader. The man stumbled back a step, before regaining his footing. By then Videl had landed, and struck her foot out tripping the large man with ease.
Videl jumped up and brought her fists down on his stomach in a jackhammer swing. The man brought his leg up, causing Videl to jump back to avoid his leg. He managed to get up and to his feet again. He looked like he was going to start to say something, when Videl launcher herself at him again.
She puncher her fists into his chest and stomach repeatedly, almost faster then normal person could see. She then stepped back and jumped up, performing a hurricane kick to his head, sending him stepping hard to his side in an attempt to regain his balance.
Suddenly Videl did something that caused every guy in the room to flinch in pain. She kicked up hard between his legs, dropping him on the ground in less then a second. His face was contorted in pain just before she kneed him in the face, sending him falling back. She jumped up, flipped, and landed with both her feat hard onto the man's face. Stepping off, she kicked him again in the face making sure that he was out cold.
Yamcha whistled at her skills, somewhat impressed by this girl who couldn't control her ki. She glared daggers at him and Gohan. She stomped over to them and got her face in his.
"And just who are you?!" she said in an icy voice.
"I'm Yamcha, and this is Go-" Yamcha started, but had Gohan's fist clamp over his mouth painfully.
"I'm the mighty Ginyuman!" he said in an attempt to draw Videl's attention off of what Yamcha almost said.
Yamcha looked confused for a moment, but then realization hit him. He suddenly calmed down as Videl suddenly became enraged.
"Another masked freak stealing my job! Why don't you just show me your face?!" she shouted as she snatched at Gohan's bandanna and sunglasses.
Gohan ducked away and jumped away from her. He had to get going now.
"Well, we may meet again. Until then, I must go now! Ginyuman off!" Gohan exclaimed as he vanished in super speed. Yamcha just chuckled at him.
"Who is he?!" Videl screamed at Yamcha.
"I don't know." Yamcha said casually as he walked out.
Videl was suddenly reminded that she had a job to do, but found that all the gang members were knocked out and the police had already seized the stadium. She sighed and headed back for her hotel room.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Videl shoved her scan card through the lock scanner on the door. It beeped at her, and she shoved it open, making it hit the wall lightly. She walked in before the door swung back closed from the bounce on the wall. Stomping, she made her way to the bed that she had claimed as her own for the week.
She was dead tired. She was tired from the jetlag. She was tired from the fights she had at the stadium. She was emotionally tired from the fact that Gohan, the biggest nerd and enigma in the school was being chased around by half the girls in the class because he was 'cute' and 'hot', from the fact that she had sit with a stupid idiot on the plane who insisted on flirting with her, from the fact that she had visited an ancient battle field that was covered in bodies, and from the fact that there was another masked freak out there doing her job for her!
It struck Videl as too much of a coincidence that there was another masked person with a stupid name out there with the same strengths as Saiyaman, and who even sounded like him! She had checked with the police chief before she left, and he had never heard of the guy. This was his first appearance in this city! It wasn't just a coincidence that it was the same day that her class had arrived. She had also called the teacher on her way here, and he said that none of the students were missing though!
He was the same height, body build, skin tone, and age as Saiyaman, who she guessed was the age of the students in her class. His voice was similar, like he was trying to hide it but was failing, and he got just as nervous around her. He even talked stupid like him, which was probably because he was so nervous.
Her thoughts returned to Gohan. He was an enigma, always hiding secrets from everyone, and always getting nervous when she tried to uncover them. He could be really nerdy, and extremely naïve. Yet, he treated her like a real friend, not just a means to get to her father. He didn't even act like he cared who her father was!
She would say that he's got to be Saiyaman, but she didn't have enough proof. Also, if this Ginyuman was Saiyaman in another disguise, then how could he have been him if he was with the class in the bus ride to the hotel? The stadium incident was over by the time they got to the hotel. No, he wasn't this Ginyuman.
But if Ginyuman and Saiyaman were the same person, and they weren't in her class, then was Saiyaman stalking her or something? She let out a loud sigh as more thoughts invaded her mind. These thoughts once again went to Gohan, and trying to figure out everything about him she could.
He acted like it didn't care at all who Hercule was. He wasn't intimidated by bullies, or Sharpener, or anyone else but her. He didn't talk about his family. He had a close family friend that had connections to Capsule Corp. The same week that he arrives, Saiyaman shows up. His first day in gym he was jumping twenty-five feet into the air to catch homeruns, throwing hard enough to throw the catcher backwards and leave the ball spinning in his hand, and took Sharpener's fastball to the head without flinching.
Baseball. That reminded her of that baseball player Yamcha that had helped beat up the gang at the stadium. She had seen him move as fast as that Ginyuman, which was too fast for her to see. He was definitely strong and knew how to fight. He even almost said who that Ginyuman really was! If only Ginyuman hadn't stopped him, she'd be interrogating him right now!
Suddenly Erasa came into the room from her shower. She looked at Videl with a grin and sat next to her.
"Hey Videl. How'd that stadium thing go?" Erasa asked in her happy voice.
"Not good. No one got hurt, it's just that another masked freak showed up calling himself Ginyuman. This makes me so frustrated! Why can't I just figure out who they are?!" she shouted.
"Well, how about we do something to get your mind off of it?" Erasa asked with a larger smile.
"What?" Videl asked cautiously.
"Shopping!"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"How did I end up letting you talk me into this?" Videl whispered to Erasa as they walked through the clothing store of the mall, Gohan walking just behind them carrying three boxes.
"I told you this would be a perfect time to find out more secrets about Gohan." Erasa whispered back.
Gohan sighed to himself. Their whispering only served to catch his attention more. He could've heard them whispering all the was across the store with his hearing.
"How so?" Videl asked somewhat confused.
"By seeing how many boxes he can carry." Erasa commented as she three two more boxes into the air behind her.
Gohan was prepared though, and quickly shot around the room catching the boxes perfectly. Videl raised her eyebrow to this, while Erasa just smiled. She had achieved her goal of getting Gohan to show some of his reflexes.
"You know Gohan, with the way you move, I'd almost say that you could catch a bullet." Videl said sarcastically, or at least that's how she wanted it to sound. She was hoping that he would let something slip.
"Isn't that impossible Videl?" Gohan asked with a weak smile, almost concealed behind the stack of boxes.
Videl almost growled at how that didn't work. What does it take to make something slip?! He wouldn't be able to hide his secrets from her forever!
"How come your able to carry so many boxes Gohan?" Videl asked as she threw a box with a new pair of bicycle gloves over her shoulder.
"Huh?" Gohan said as he caught the small box on top.
"She asked why you can carry so many boxes." Erasa stated as she threw a box with a new dress to him.
"My mom." Gohan said as he caught the dress's box in one hand and placed it on the bottom of the stack since a smaller box was on top.
"What?" Videl asked as she threw a few large shirt boxes at him.
"My mom." Gohan said again as he caught those in one hand again and placed them on the bottom again. Now Gohan was unable to bee seen behind all the boxes. "She really likes to shop. She doesn't get to very often, so when she does she really goes all out." Gohan said from behind the boxes.
"Whatever. Gohan you want to get any clothes while we're in this store?" Videl asked.
"That dress over there for my mother." Gohan said sticking one finger out from under the boxes in the direction of a dress.
Erasa walked over to it. "Oh this is so cute! I have to get one of my own!" suddenly a thought hit her. "But the colors are all wrong for anything in the city!" she pouted.
"I know. We live in the country though, so it will be perfect for her. I just hope this will help get me out of any trouble I'm still in from that one wrong answer on that test." Gohan said with a nervous smile.
"Is this the right size?" Erasa asked holding the dress up while Gohan turned sideways to look at it.
"Yup." he said.
Erasa put it neatly into a box and threw it over he shoulder. Once again Gohan managed to catch the flying box. With that they walked out of the store. They continued to walking through a massive crowd towards another large clothing store at almost the other side of the mall.
Videl kept her eye on Gohan. Amazingly he seemed to have no trouble dodging people, even with the boxes covering his face from view. He didn't even seem to get tired from carrying all those boxes. Yup! He was hiding secrets from her alright!
"Gohan!!!" came a voice from just inside another group of people.
Gohan froze at the familiar voice of his little brother. He quickly scanned the entire mall for his ki, but couldn't find it. He could only find another familiar one, and then it all made sense to him.
Yamcha came walking out of the crowd laughing for all he was worth. In his hand was a tape recorder. Gohan titled the boxes to the side to glare at him for a moment. Suddenly it hit him that Videl didn't know that he knew Yamcha!!!
Videl glared daggers at the baseball player. Then she decided to use this baseball player to her advantage. "Gohan, how do you know Yamcha the greatest baseball player in the world?" she asked with a horrible grin that seemed almost demonic to Gohan. It reminded him too much of a cross between Vegeta and his mother!
"He's so Hot!" Erasa screeched and latched herself to Yamcha's arm.
"Um… He's a family friend Videl!" Gohan spat out nervously.
Videl thought about this for a moment, then got another grin. "Would this be the same friend that had enough connections at Capsule Corp. to get you a brand new jet capsule?" she asked in an almost sweet voice, the taste of victory on the tip of her tongue.
"No, that would be Bulma." Yamcha said without really thinking while trying to pry Erasa off his arm without taking her arms off. It was really hard.
Videl was blown back! "BULMA BRIEFS!!!" she shouted out.
Gohan knew he was in trouble! It seemed like all the trouble he was getting in today was Yamcha's fault. Balancing the boxes on one hand, he smacked Yamcha hard on the head. Yamcha shouted out like he had just been struck with Chi-chi's frying pan! That hurt almost as much as a hit from Cell!
"How do you know Bulma Briefs?!" Videl demanded.
Again Yamcha spoke before thinking, since he was still dizzy from Gohan's hit to the head.
"She's been family friends with Gohan's dad since he was a kid! I met him at that age too, only a few months afterwards. I was a bandit back then, and tried to steal all their stuff, but boy did I get a beating!" Yamcha said loudly, remembering the beating he got from Goku. "We've known Gohan here since he was four years old!"
Suddenly a fist came out of no where and sent him to the ground, hard! That was when Yamcha finally caught on that these were suppose to be Gohan's secrets. He decided a quick escape from the angry demi-saiyan would be a good choice. Quickly detaching himself from Erasa by attaching her to Gohan with out him noticing, he ran away!
Once around the next corner, he determined that Gohan wasn't going to chase him. Quickly pulling out his cell phone, he dialed Chi-chi's number. She had put out a bounty on any information she could get on Gohan's love life, and Yamcha was going to cash in on this Videl girl!
Meanwhile Gohan was being starred down by Videl. The daggers shooting from her eyes were going to cut through his skull at any moment! He knew he was in real trouble now! Suddenly a new miracle stepped around the corner and spotted him.
"Hey Gohan!" Bull called out.
Videl came dangerously close to cursing. With Bull around, she didn't feel right interrogating Gohan. After all, it was her father's fault that his parents were dead. She backed off for now. She would find out his secret though!
"Hey Bull!" Gohan called him over.
"What's going on?" Bull asked confused by all the boxes Gohan was carrying.
"Shopping!" Erasa exclaimed. "Now you can help Gohan carry the boxes!"
Bull got a look of horror on his face as Erasa grabbed his arm and dragged him with them to the next clothing store.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Videl sighed as she dropped onto her bed again. Erasa just kept talking, but finally left her alone to go take a shower. Videl let out a loud sigh as she was finally free from Erasa's chattering for a while. She really did consider Erasa a true friend, but she could be so annoying.
Speaking of annoying, Gohan was back in her thoughts. It was time to piece together the final pieces in the puzzle of his secrets. Maybe if she could figure out who he father was, then it would make sense. Before she could start though, Erasa came out, finished with her shower.
"Want to go see a movie?" she asked.
"No, I'm tired Erasa." Videl answered somewhat annoyed at her for interrupting her thoughts.
"Well, I can't just go alone." Erasa said.
"Well, take Sharpener with you or something."
"Maybe I will, or should I take Gohan?" Erasa asked with a smile.
"I don't care, just leave me alone for a while." Videl said.
"Or maybe I should ask Gohan to come over here to keep you company?" Erasa asked in a very mischievous tone of voice.
"WHAT?!" Videl shouted, jumping into the air. How could Erasa even think something like that?!
"Just wondering." Erasa said before running out the door.
Videl growled at her friend's departure. Well, back to thinking about Gohan. She had to discover his secrets. She had to figure out who his father was. If she could figure that out, then maybe it would help her figure out what Gohan's big secrets were.
His father had known Yamcha and Bulma since he was a kid. He had managed to beat up Yamcha when he first met him. Who could beat up Yamcha as a kid? From what Videl saw, Yamcha was a good fighter, she even heard that he had entered the WMAT a few times.
The WMAT! Who ever Gohan's dad was, he had to have entered at least once with as strong as he sounded. Suddenly it clicked in her head. SON Gohan! SON Goku! Son Gohan was the son of Son Goku! He was the previous champion, before her father! Some even thought that he was stronger then her father!
Gohan had to know how to fight then! No wonder he hid who he really was. His father was famous too! In fact, many people said that he was the blond guy from the Cell games. But if he was the blond guy from the Cell games, then that would make Gohan that blond kid!
Her smile was growing every second. If he was the blond kid, then he fought Cell, and could even tell her how her father killed Cell! Finally, she knew someone who was there other then her father! She could hear the entire story without any of her father's exaggeration. She would know what really happened!
If he was at the Cell games, and he was the blond kid that fought Cell, then he had to be the Golden Fighter that everyone talked about. He appeared the same day that Gohan did, and she knew now that he could change his hair and eye color. That would also make him strong enough to be Saiyaman, and this Ginyuman too! She had him backed into a wall now!
She was going to blackmail him until he told her everything, and taught her everything! She wanted to know how to fly! She wanted to know how to shoot those beams of light! She wanted to know everything! And she was going to get him to fight in the WMAT. Maybe he could beat her father, then he would go down a notch or two in his pride, and actually start acting like a normal father.
Suddenly the possibility of Gohan being stronger then her father really hit her, and what it meant. Her father wouldn't allow her to date anyone who wasn't stronger then him. If Gohan beat him, that would mean she could date him? She didn't want to think about that right now. Though, she knew that her father would probably make her date him, since he would be the only one stronger then him anywhere near her age.
Shoving those thoughts aside, she threw on more comfortable clothes. She was going to have a long chat with Gohan. He had some explaining to do. With that, she left the room.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gohan walked calmly down the street of the city. It was only a while before sunset, and the city was looking quite beautiful as the colors of the sky just began to change. He ducked down a dark alley way with no one in it. There was a bright light emitted from the alley way, before Saiyaman flew into the sky, then in the direction of Satan city.
Afterwards, Gohan walked back out of the alley way, and towards a restaurant. He was feeling somewhat hungry since the dinner he had at the hotel, which meant that he would eat almost half the food in the restaurant. He walked in and took a seat, beginning to gorge himself in front of all the people there.
When he was done there, he slowly headed towards a toy store in the area. He wanted to get something for Goten and Trunks. That way he would have something for everyone, except Bulma. He would get her a dress from a clothing store or something. He could even ask Videl to help him, since she knew that he was friends with Bulma now. Vegeta's souvenir would be a good spar in super saiyan. He would have to make it a really good one, since he was missing his scheduled one for this week.
On his way to the store, he passed an electronics store. In the window were several television sets, all tuned to the same station. That station was showing yet another biography of the life of Hercule. There were at least five people just standing there, watching and eating up everything that was said about the fight with Cell.
Gohan chuckled to himself. That big man was quite the comedian, he had to give him that much. His loud voice seemed to capture the audience with every shouted word and yell.
Gohan didn't really have anything against the man for lying to the world. He didn't want the credit, and the world needed someone to look up to. If he could fill the job description, then let him have his fame. The only thing he had against what Hercule was doing, was lying to his own daughter. He had Videl convinced that she was weaker then him, and would never be as strong as him.
Other then that, Gohan didn't have anything against the man. Not even him continually calling the skills and abilities he, his family, and his friends possessed and used nothing but tricks. Hercule didn't understand what they were, and probably never would understand. He just did what many people do, try to hide and deny what scares them and what they don't understand.
Gohan actually pitied the man. As far as Hercule knew, the only people stronger then him were the Z gang, and he knew they were way out of his league. He had no competition, no one to spar with. There was no one that could spar with him, with out smashing him to bits. He had no challenge in fighting. That was no kind of life for a fighter.
Gohan smiled as he reached the toy store.

Bull was outside as the sun was setting. He was walking at the edge of the city, presenting him with a beautiful image before him of the sun's last colorful rays on what nature surrounded the city. The beauty was lost on him though. He just kept walking.
His mind continued to fume over his hate for Hercule. His talk with Gohan on the plane had reawakened every bit of hate and anger he had in his body, and reminded him how much he missed his parents. He wanted them back.
He had just been getting ready to relax, when he had turned on the television to see what was on. On the television was a biography of Hercule's life. It focused on the Cell games. That made him even more angry as everyone that was interviewed about their opinion of the man, could only say how great he was for killing Cell. It was too much for him to bare!
Coming up to a tree just out of the view of most people, he began to beat on it with all his might to vent his rage. He continued to beat on it when his hands started to bleed. When he finally stopped, exhausted from hitting the tree, his hands were sliced up and covered in his own blood. The tree was only missing some of its bark, with blood covering some of it.
He held his bloody hands to his face as he began to cry. How he missed his mother and father. He wished they were there to hold him right then and there. Rage and depression was ripping his body and mind apart.
Above him, where he wouldn't notice it, hovered a cloud of steam. It seemed to be observing him from above him. Sensing the anger, hate, sadness, and utter confusion in the boy, the steam lowered itself until it surrounded the boy's body.
Bull began to breath in the steam with out realizing it. He didn't even know it was there, since there was no temperature change. Slowly the cloud was breathed into the boy's lungs and absorbed by his body. Suddenly Bull felt sick, and fell unconscious.
The steam was inside of his head, reading his thoughts. It delved into his mind deeper and deeper, until it had full access to his memories. Within moments, it had relived the boy's entire life. Bull cried out in pain in his head for a moment, until it was suddenly over.
Then, Bull found himself in a black room. There was a light shining down onto the floor in the middle of the room. He slowly stepping into the lighted area. Then, he heard footsteps in front of him approaching the light.
A skeleton wearing black robes stepping into the light. For a strange reason, Bull wasn't afraid of the creature standing before him. It seemed pleased with this, although he didn't know how he knew that.
"I am Charon, the Ferryman of Hades. I understand that you have lost your two parents, and want revenge against the man that was responsible for this. Would you like it if I brought them back to you, and gave you the power to have your revenge?" it spoke, without moving its mouth.
"Yes!" Bull exclaimed.
"Would you do anything to have this?"
"YES!" Bull shouted, meaning it fully.
Charon didn't respond, instead he dissipated into steam. The steam suddenly covered Bull's body again. This time, it felt extremely hot, burning his skin, and chocking him. Slowly it was absorbed by his skin, and then the pain stopped.
Bull opened his eyes from the dream he had had. He stood, feeling a million times more powerful then he had been before! Skills and powers he had never imagined filled his mind and body. A evil grin formed on his mouth, resembling Vegeta in a bad mood. Then the voice echoed into his mind again as the steam left his body and floated away again, leaving him more powerful then ever before. A single word was left in his mind.
"Kill."
