Well, the first chapter did alright, and Gohan is going nuts (I would've said bananas, but you would've seen that coming).

After he left the main office, Gohan looked at his schedule, which was as follows:

B1 period: English - Mr. Bennett - Rm. 216
B2 period: Biology - Ms. Bowman-Price - Rm. 306
B3 period: Technology - Mr. Juushichi - Rm. 137

G3 period: Home Eco. - Ms Chestnut - Rm. 317
G4 period: P.E. - Mr. Chestnut - Gym
Advocacy: Ms. Reyez - Rm. 258

(A/N: Block scheduling, which means Day one=B; Day 2= G)

At the mere mention of Mr. Briefs and Mr Chestnut, Gohan noticeably paled. he did not want any classes with Vegeta or Krillin. those two would ruin his life. Deciding to deal it when the time comes, he made his way to Room 216, going up a set of stairs.

After wandering the hallways for a couple of minutes, he finally found it, at the end of a hallway. Knocking on the door, he was answered by an African-American man, with chocolate brown skin, a bald head, white suit and jacket, clear wire-framed glasses, and a pink undershirt with a tie (I swear, that's how he used to dress like).

Taking a moment to look at the teenage Saiyan,the man asked "May I help you?"

Gohan responded immediately, saying "U-uh yeah! I-I'm the new student, Gohan Son."

At this, the man smiled, "Oh yes, the bright young student! come in, come in, I'll introduce you!"

Shuffling nervously into the classroom, Gohan looked around for any familiar faces. If Tien wasn't lying, then his daughter Erasa was in Orange Star High, and he didn't want to start the year out alone. At least he hoped...

Right after he took a quick look around, Mr. Bennett, the teacher, announced his arrival to the students, who were all in conversations with each other.

"Alright class," He began, " we have ourselves another bright young student! Let's give a warm welcome to Mr. Gohan Son. He did exceptionally well in all his exams, including his physical exams, he actually scored the highest in the nation on that one." Gohan blushed at the praise he got, and thought, 'Damn it, I knew I overdid it!' He then started to sweat at all the attention he got. He saw a pair of cerulean eyes among them, eyeing him with a mix of suspicion and surprise. The eyes belonged to a raven haired teenager dressed in an over-sized white t shirt and black spandex shorts, her raven hair done in pigtails, with gold bands holding them in. The way she looked was oddly familiar. maybe he saw her in the ci- His eyes widened in recognition as he thought, 'Crap! it's the girl I saw at the bank! It looks like she recognized me! Aw man, what do I do?'

As he continued to internally panic, he didn't hear the teacher tell him to sit down in an empty seat, until Mr. Bennett adressed him, "Mr. Son, I appreciate the company, but you need to take a seat. There's an empty one near Ms. Shinhan, if you don't mind."

Embarassed at the statement, he made his way to the back of the room towards Erasa, who was waving at him with way too much enthusiasm, with a red face, ignoring the chuckling students along the way.

*~Gohan at OSH~*

*~Videl~*

'You've got to be kidding me! He's in my damn class!'

Videl sat there in disbelief. It was the kid that helped her out in the bank. What the hell was she supposed to do? As he walked towards the empty seat two seats away from her, she decided to confront him later. Maybe she would luck out and he would let it go. Kami knows she needs a decent sparring partner. Her fourteen year-old sister, Kumiko, could barely keep up with her mother Fasha, who couldn't even transform yet, and her twenty-one year-old sister is way too strong to even keep up with. 'Second level my ass' she thought bitterly. As he passed by a jock, who by the way is known for bullying new kids, he didn't notice the leg aiming to trip him, and he walked right past it nearly breaking his leg. As the jock held up his nearly broken leg, Gohan kept walking by, oblivious to the commotion he caused.

Before Gohan sat down, Videl turned to Erasa and asked, "Do you know him?" Erasa turned around and said, "Yeah, I met him just before the Intergalactic Tournament. I never saw much of him though. My mom and dad introduced us, but that's it. Why do you ask?" Answering as Gohan sat down, Videl said, "Oh nothing I was just curious."

"Curious about what?" Gohan said nervously, now in his seat. "Oh, nothing," Videl replied, "I was just wondering if you would like to join us at lunch unless you don't want to?" she finished with a smile.

For some reason Gohan could look away from that smile, so he said, "Sure, where would you two like to eat? I don't really know anywhere here." He said, not willing to lose any possible friends (And against his better judgment).

With a wider smile, Videl said, "On the roof."

*~Gohan at OSH~*

*~Gohan~*

'Why the hell did agree?' Gohan thought, making his way over to biology. He couldn't find a reason as to why he agreed, but he agreed nonetheless, promised even, and he never breaks promises.

'It was that smile,' he thought, 'for some reason I couldn't say no to that smile, and it made my heart rate rise and my body feel all warm and fuzzy. What was that?' He finished, making his way inside the room. He saw Erasa and Videl, along with a guy Gohan didn't know. He looked like a typical jock, bulging muscles, tank top and shorts and arrogant attitude. His distinguishing features were chocolate brown eyes, long blonde hair and silver dog tags. He was sitting next to Videl, pestering her about something he couldn't listen to. He saw him put an arm around Videl and get punched in the gut, sending him flying towards the other end of the room. As he sat down, he wondered what all that was about.

As if sensing his confusion, Erasa decided to fill him in. "That big idiot over there picking himself up is Sharpner, the self proclaimed 'ladies man'. He's been trying to go out with Videl forever, but the trouble is Videl doesn't like him. Hell, even I can't stand him. Between you and me, he's thicker than a rock, and twice as stupid." As she said this, Gohan saw Sharpner miraculously get up, picking himself out of the ruins of a desk, rubbing his bruised stomach. He then ran right over and sat next to Videl, earning himself a growl from said teen. All he did was give her a 'seductive' smile, which would make even the gender-confused Frieza run away in disgust.

After a few minutes, the teacher finally walked in. She was an older woman of African American descent, with dark brown skin, graying hair, which was tied up in a bun, and a white lab coat. She was overweight, making her walk with a slight wobble. When she adressed the class, she had an air of authority, one that made everybody shut up and listen. She then began with a scowl, "Welcome to Biology. I will say this right here and right now, I do not tolerate slackers. In this class is you will work for your grade, no exceptions. I expect only the best from you. That is all for now. You may talk amongst yourselves, but know this, this is probably the only time I will let you all do this. Cherish this time. Tomorrow we will start true high school work." She then made her way to her desk and sat down, her eyes roaming the class, finding potential slackers and troublemakers. (This it's a perfect portrayal of my teacher's personality. If you caused any trouble she would kick you out, sending you to ISS or the office)

After chatting with Erasa and Videl the whole class period, getting to know them in the process, he quickly made himself a part of their small friend's circle. What they really appreciated him for was keeping Sharper away, who claimed "I won't be caught dead being near Nerd-Boy here." (Of cource, he ignored information about his physical exams), and promptly left to sit with the other jocks, who were currently trying to figure out what was Victoria's secret.

Erasa, he learned, was adopted, a fact that took him completely by surprise. Apparently, her mom, Launch, was stabbed below her navel during one of her 'episodes', and after she was rushed and treated at the nearest hospital, found out something that tore her and Tien apart: she wasn't able to have kids anymore. So with that information, they decided that if they can't have their own kids, they would save one. So with that in mind they adopted a three month old Erasa from an orphanage, raising her as their own. When they told her, she was shocked, of course, and wanted to know who her parents were. But according to the orphanage, she was found in the woods near the outskirts of the then 'Orange Star City'.

Videl, on the other hand, was the daughter of Hercule Satan. She was reluctant to tell him this, as she thought he would only become her friend to get to know him. But after telling him, she could tell he saw her as 'Videl', not 'Hercule's Daughter'. She was a middle child, with a twenty-one year old sister, and a fourteen year old younger sister. She told them her whole family were fighters, and that her older sister came home when she was fourteen, after suffering from amnesia, and that her mother was 'kidnapped' as she said, and wasn't back until she was fourteen as well. When she came back she had a ten year old daughter with her, who at the time had the mentality of a four year old. He also found out that her father Hercule died at the Cell Games because he was fighting for her, and would rather die than give up. This gave him a respect for the man, who he thought was an arrogant fool at the games. Apparently, the goofball wasn't as shallow as he thought.

After they told him this, he decided to tell them a little bit about himself. He told them that his parents were Goku and Chi Chi Son, a fact that surprised Videl, but not Erasa, told him about being kidnapped when he was four, leaving out the wilderness survival and his father's death, but telling them about the training, told them about two extremely strong people that wanted to kill him, his dad, and his friends, told him about his father's virus, the same one that nearly took his life, and told them about his father's death, which he told them was "All my fault. If only I wasn't so arrogant..." from which he trailed off, lost in memories. They immediately wanted to comfort him, but he came to and told them that it's been seven years, and he was used to it. They didn't pry for details, in fear that in doing so may trigger some unwanted memories, but they did tell him that it probably wasn't his fault and he shouldn't blame himself for it. He also ended up telling them about Goten and Kara, who, in his opinion, were the best younger siblings a brother would ask for. He was worried that told them too much about himself but to him it wouldn't be fair because they trusted him enough to tell him about themselves. To him, it would somehow break the trust they had in him.

After that, they were surprised when the bell rang, as they had no idea they were talking so long. While they were chatting, they found out they had all the same classes, something they thought was odd, but took it in stride. They made their way to room 137, where they took seats at computers that were next to each other. When the teacher walked in, Gohan almost fainted. It was Andrew, A.K.A. Android Seventeen. He seemed surprised to see Gohan in his class, but shook it ofr fairly quickly opting to talk to the class on what you couldn't do in a computer lab, and that he wouldn't "take any shit from you people who think you know everything."

Afterwards, Andrew called Gohan over and basically thanked Gohan for giving him another chance when he saved him from Cell (Discreetly, of course). He told him about how he was lost at first, not knowing what to do with his life, when he came up with the idea of becoming a teacher. He reasoned that if he "Discreetly help them with their life from school, where people would drop out, screwing them over for life, basically, then I could change people who wouldn't have a chance in HFIL to succeed in life, to people successful in whatever they excel in, being people who wouldn't be useless in everything like I was, then that's a job well done for me." It made Gohan feel good, knowing that he helped Andrew out in knowing what to do in life, just by rescuing him from the bio-android.

After that, was Gohan's (and Videl's) favorite time of the day: Lunch.

Making his way towards a nearby stairwell, Gohan ascended the stairs, making his way towards the roof. Opening his messenger bag, he took out a capsule, one that contained his lunch (As he couldn't possibly carry the amount of food needed for his Saiyan stomach in a lunch sack.), and opened the door to the roof, finding that Videl was already there. Apparently Erasa had to go and explain to some jocks that Victoria didn't have a secret. It was just a brand of underwear.

Upon sitting down, Videl turned to him and said, "I know you're also a Saiyan." Gohan was expecting this, as he long ago pieced it together that she was the Saiyan that helped him in that Bank robbery in the morning just from the outfit she wore. So instead of freaking out, as he would've normally done, he just unwrapped his tail from around his waist, and it was far too happy to follow his command as it started to wag happily behind him. She followed suit, letting it out of the confines of her clothes. He smiled at the gesture of openness, giving her the feeling of butterflies in her stomach from just the smile, although she didn't know where the feeling came from.

As she took out her lunch, which consisted of a large sandwich, two pears, and a large caplsule-ade, he frowned. That won't be nearly enough food for her. He thought about it, and decided to do what everybody thought was impossible. He shared his lunch.

Clicking the top, he threw it in front of him, letting it exploded in a puff of smoke, only to let it reveal a meal that would've fed one hundred men easily, or two demi saiyans eating lightly.

Her eyes widening and her mouth salivating at the sight, she unknowingly dropped her sandwich, and made her way over. Gohan chuckled at this, and said, "We can each eat half. I won't let you eat that small a lunch, not when I get to eat this much." And with that, they dug in.

Poor food. May Dende have mercy on their souls.

After they ate, Videl thanked Gohan, telling him that, "He didn't need to do that." His reply was, "I know, but I wanted to. It didn't seem right when I saw how much you had to eat, compared to what I had, and don't bother saying you could've made it, I wouldn't have made it if I were you." Videl was stumped, he had a point.

After the bell rang, telling them that it was time for their fourth period, Gohan took this moment to warn Videl and Erasa, who came back after trying (and failing) to convince the jocks that Victoria didn't have a secret, those idiots, about Vegeta. He told them not to insult his height, not to challenge him at anything, and to 'respect his authority at all costs'.

Entering the gym, he spotted Vegeta at the other end of the room, leaning on the wall with his arms crossed and his eyes closed, waiting for the students to come in, not that he cared in the slightest. He was surprisingly not decked out in his usual spandex training gear, as Gohan originally thought, he had on a black leather jacket with the collar unfolded, with a red-orange shirt underneath it, and khaki pants. Gohan discreetly lowered his power level, not wanting to spar with Vegeta at the moment. He hasn't seriously trained over the years, but he was still as powerful as he was seven years ago. He knew he still had room for improvement, but it's been so peaceful, he only trained to keep his power at the same leve, opting to train his younger siblings instead.

Right when he sat down, he saw Vegeta raise his hand. Gohan's eyes widened when Vegeta pointed it at the class and fired a Big Bang Attack at the students. Acting fast, he phased into the front of the group and deflected it at the roof, where it burned through the ceiling, leaving a perfectly round hole in it, and soared out into space, dissipating after some time. Gohan's eyes narrowed at Vegeta, glaring at the man, who was smirking at him. What the HFIL was he thinking! He could've killed everyone! After glaring at the man for what seemed like eternity, he suddenly groaned. Vegeta knew he was in there and fired it on purpose! And now, everyone saw 'nerdy Gohan' (as the jocks put it) deflect a ball of ki that was capable of destroying the whole school straight into the air, without so much as a scorch mark!

It was then that Gohan cursed Bulma for her genius. You see, a few years back, Vegeta left for space, to gather a metal that was not found on Earth, that was needed because of it's high density, which made it more resistant to hits, making it an ideal replacement as a wall for his precious Gravity Room. After he returned, he brought back some technology that Bulma had requested to help "The world 'revolutionize'" as she put it. Some of these were highly useful for police and military, such as some leftover armor from the Cold Empire, of which she was able to replicate and incorporate it onto their bulletproof vests, making them withstand even Armor-Pearcing rounds (although not without heavy bruising ), and scouters, which she managed to convert into a device that you wore around your wrist, doubling as a watch and communicator. This made it useful for the police, as it helped them track down criminals hiding in abandoned areas. A public version was also released, without the communicator feature, as some people would've figured out how to tap into police frequencies. It was this technology that Gohan cursed. Some students had those scouters, and they alerted them to the power of the blast, and of Gohan's brief spike in ki. One even went so far as to yell "IT'S OVER NINE THOUSAND!," causing Vegeta to gawk at the student, and for Gohan to bust out laughing, much to the confusion of the other classmates.

After getting over the shock at the outburst, Vegeta managed to growl out, through clenched teeth, that he was leaving early, opting to go "Blow off some steam before I blast all of you weaklings into oblivion," which put the whole class on edge. Leaving a random jock, which happened to be Sharpner, in charge, he stomed out, muttering under his breath about a 'damn third class baka'

After getting over the initial shock of their Phys. Ed. teacher bailing out on them, Sharpner grinned. This was going to be fun...

Correction, that was horrible. After deciding on their activity for the day, dodgeball, he made Videl a captain, along with himself. Sharpner ended up taking all of his buddies into his team, leaving Videl with "Nerd-Boy" and all the others (conveniently forgetting the scouter's reading of Gohan's power level). His team was destroyed. One ball thrown by Gohan managed to throw a jock straight into the wall, leaving an indent. One from Videl managed to nail him in the crown jewels, raising his voice an octave or two for the rest of the day from the force, and one from Erasa somehow managed to knock a jock unconscious.

He wasn't underestimating them again. Or maybe he will, I mean, this is Sharpner we're talking about here.

After school, let out, Gohan joined Videl on the roof, as they both blasted off home. He was surprised at first, but she told him her mother, Fasha, taught her how to fly (with difficulty at first, seeing as she refused to bring out her energy at first, for reasons she wouldn't tell him).

He waved goodbye to her as he flew away, heading towards the East District 439 area. 'Today wasn't so bad,' he thought, 'but I could've done without Vegeta trying to blow up my class. I wonder why he's teaching? Must've been Bulma.' He thought, as he sped up.

'This year might not be so bad,'

Enjoy the chapter, I sure did.

Longest one I've written to date, at 3,789 words long! Wow.
