Chapter One
The dark clouds hovering over the horizon began to cry, because of the sadness it felt for the midnight haired girl that walked alone on the black coiled street. After feeling the cooling water that teased against Videl's skin she looked up to the sky. Her bright sapphire eyes filled both with her own tears and the tears of the cloud she was under. She hugged herself as the wind tickled against her paled colored skin. She looked down at her wrist and almost gasped staring down at the small brown watch. She had just five minutes to get home in time for dinner! And she was more then a half an hour away from home.
Videl knew she shouldn't have took David up on his offer. Never in her life that she been so angry! She should have known that he only liked her because of her father. If it wasn't for her broken heart, she'd probably brake the guy in half and to make things even worse, she was crying! Videl Satan NEVER cried! She balled her hands into tight fists. She knew that she wasn't her tears, crying for something so stupid, but for some reason, they refused to stop.
She always seemed to fall for the guy's who only liked her for fame and all the good ones were to scared to even come up to her. Videl thought it was a curse and she would never fine the right guy. Not that it bothered her to much, it was just that she was already sixteen and sooner, or later she was going to be seventeen, and still didn't have a relationship that lasted longer then a day.
"Things could be worse...you could have never been on a date..." Videl mumbled to herself. Yet she wished she went out with someone on at least a second date! Someone that wasn't afraid of her and definably not someone who liked her because of her relationship with her father!
Suddenly she stopped as she looked at around. She had no idea where she was or what street she was at. Which was really bad for someone who always's saved the city more then twice. But maybe it could have done with the fact that it was way to hard to see? Videl held in her breath as she hear soft mumbling voices. Maybe they have a cell phone or something? She thought. She began to walk to the voices she was hearing, but suddenly she stopped, a loud bang shot through her ears, and a body falling to the ground. Her body froze. She hoped she was imagining things. Holding her hand to her mouth, she looked up to the man with the gun. Slowly she lowered her hands and rushed at him. She had no idea what the hell she was thinking, but she knew she couldn't let that guy get away with a murder.
"Get her!" Someone yelled as she neared closer.
Videl let out a small yelp as she felt a tiny sting at the side of her face. She almost got hit by the bullet. Biting down her lips, she slammed her fists into the man with the gun, only to have herself roughly pushed off.
"No!" She screamed. She had screamed again when a hand had grabbed her waist, pulling her up, and another hand quieted her from screaming anymore. Tears began to fall from her eyes again and she knew death was coming for her, but she wouldn't let it take her that easily. With the best scream she could muster through the hands that cover her mouth, she slammed her fists ever wear, then her world just went blank.
The morning sun beamed down Videl. A large yawn escaped her lips and she stretched her arms out and another yawn escaped her lips. She slowly opened her eyes as well slowly sitting up. She blinked her eyes, trying to regain her vision, and to her surprise, she was in her ocean style bedroom. She grabbed her blue and green blanket and pulled it away from her. She moved her feet over the edge of the bed and stood herself up.
How? She thought.
She looked down at herself and saw she was wearing her silver spaghetti strap tank top and her matching baggy pants.
Why am I in my pajamas? She thought, peering down at her pajamas.
Videl shrugged her shoulders and reach out to the faded jean and black tank top with white sparkling letters saying 'If You Think You Can, Then You Definitely Can't'. She quickly slipped it on and lazily brushed her long dark hair and pulled them into two low ponytails. Soon she was down stairs and walking over to the kitchen table, where breakfast was set on the table. Videl licked her lips and hurried to her seat. But before she could even sit down, her father's voice stopped her.
"Oh? Your awake! I'm glad...you were lucky! If I hadn't opened that door, that evil boy would have raped you!!" Her father nearly screamed. Videl rolled her eyes as she tooked her seat. She truly loved her father, but sometimes her father was always one to overreact. She sat smiled at her dad as he joined her at the table. It was nice to spend time with him, since he was never really home. Always doing something. It was pretty lonely.
"Anyway, Videl...about that boy...please don't tell me he was one of your-"
"Well, Dad...I better get going!" She said, totally dodging the question. She really had no clue what happened last night, but she'll find out soon enough. She stuffed a half a slice of spam in her month and grabbed a large piece of bread. The gently kissed her father's forehead and quickly left the house. But before she was able to get away that fast, Hercule's voice once again stopped her. Her face turned red when she had turned around, only to see Hercule holding her black and while mini backpack in his large hands and before he could open that big mouth of his's, Videl quickly ran back out the door, but not before saying thanks.
Finally Videl had made it to her school. She sighed in relief as she hurried for first period. She didn't know why, but she felt so relived. Once school was done, she was going to do a lot of investing. Once she made it to class she quickly sat in her normal seat and relaxed her body. She stared down at her hands on her lap and stared down at her small brown watch. Her mind drifting of to last night. She wondered what had happened. But thinking about it just gave her chills. How did she get back at home? And who was that young man her father was talking about. But before she was able to dig deeper into the subject, her teacher's voice boomed into her head.
"Okay...students! We have someone new with us today and I want all of you to respect him! His name is Son Gohan. He is a new student and he will be staying with us for the rest of the year. Oh and he's the only one who scored a perfect on the test! So if you want good grades and need help, you'd better be nice to him!" The teacher said.
Videl glanced over at the new student and to her surprise she found him...handsome. Not like a geek that everyone was talking about. His dark coil eyes met up with her sapphire ones. Videl held his gaze and not once did any of them turned away. Kindness showed in his eyes, which relaxed her. He had short dark hair and spikes for bangs in the front. A large smile played on his lips as he looked around the room. Videl could hear the squeals from her best friend, Erasa, and if Videl didn't have common sense, she might have too.
"Hey, Gohan! Come sit by me!" Erasa squealed.
Gohan trailed his eyes over to Erasa and smiled brightly at her. He slowly began to make his way over to her, Videl watching his ever move. She was a little curious to who he was. She looked over at him and popped up the first question in her head.
"Where do you live?" She asked.
Gohan slowly turned his head over to her and tilted his head to the side. Before he answer, he blinked his eyes a couple of time, finally he answered. "Far away."
It was Videl's turn to blink. "Okay...so you come a long way from home?" She asked.
Gohan nodded his head. "Yeah." He answered.
Videl didn't leave her eyes off him. "Why the short answers?" She knew she was starting to sound like a bitch, but she didn't liked feeling like a fool and somehow he was making her feel like one.
"Uh...sorry?" He answered, unsure.
Finally Erasa stepped in. "Well, Gohan. Let's me interduce everyone to you! The one talking to you is Videl." - She quieted her voice - "The daughter of Mr. Satan." She whispered.
Gohan stared at Erasa dumbly, trying to figure out who she was talking about, finally it popped in. "Oh! That Mr. Satan...wow...that must be...uh...nice!" Gohan said to Videl, which in return getting a glare.
"Anyway, i'm Erasa, and over hear by Videl is Sharpner." She pointed to a blond muscular young man.
Gohan nodded his head at Sharpner, who rolled his eyes at Gohan, not taking any interest at all.
"Nice to meet you all." Gohan said politly. He sank deeper into his chair. Oh boy...this is going to be something. He thought as he felt Videl's eyes sinking deeper and deeper into his skin.
Videl was about to open her mouth, but she was stopped by Sharpner's irritating voice. "So...? Videl, are you coming to the concert with us tonight?" He asked.
Erasa taking this perfect opportunity snapped his head over to Gohan. "Yeah, Gohan! Would you like to come?" She asked excitedly.
"Uh...I guess..." He answered, not really looking over to her, but lost in his own thoughts. Wow, not even one minute and I already have friends. He thought.
Videl lifted her eyebrows and shrugged her shoulders. If Gohan was going, then she didn't mind going also. "Yeah, Sharpner, i'm going." She said to him.
Sharpner smiled and leaned back in his chair. "Cool. Pick you up at seven." He told her.
Videl simply nodded her head, hardly even caring. The only thing that was going through her mind was Gohan. Not because she found him attracting, but because she felt like a new mystery was just sitting there, waiting for her to get her hands on it and start solving. Gohan, you are my new victim. She thought as a wicked smirk curled across her face.
Okay...sorry for making it kinda short and i'm also very sorry about the mistakes. I got lazy and didn't fix them, but I know they are there. Anyway, Review please! It'd make me really happy!
