Author's Note: Sorry I'm late again. But, now since I'm on Spring Break I have a lot more time to write. So, expect faster updates now. It's the least I could do for being late. You guys rock! Now, on with the story!
Chapter 10: First Day Of School?!
It has been about 3 weeks since the others had found out about Gohan's saiyan side. So far, no more outbursts have occurred. Gohan has kept training with Vegeta and it seems as though the training has paid off in keeping the young boy's other side at bay.
The young warrior was in his room studying, just like he had promised his mother he would. A knock was heard on the door. It was his mother Chichi who was carrying a drink for Gohan.
"Here you go Gohan. You sure have been studying hard today."
"Thanks mom."
"By the way Gohan, I have some great news. Your grandfather called me and told me that he wold need a new heir to his kingdom, since he's going to retire soon. When I married your father I didn't accept the thrown, so now your going to be the future king of his kingdom."
Gohan was shocked. "I'm going to be a what?!"
"You should be a proud, inheriting your own kingdom and becoming a great scholar. It's a great thing!"
"I guess so." ~ Wow. I'm going to be a king. Vegeta is sure going to be jealous of that, that's for sure. He's always been proud of being the only prince around. Not to mention since he was the prince of all the saiyans. ~
His mother broke him out of his thoughts, "Of course becoming a good king will take a lot of work too. Every weekend, Saturday and Sunday, for two hours you'll study with my father at his castle."
"Okay. It's only two hours. So, I'll have the rest of the day to train after I study, right? Besides I have all day weeknights."
"Not exactly." Replied Chichi.
"What do you mean?"
"Remember those lasts exams you took?" Gohan nodded his head. "You got 100% on everything which means your now going to attend Orange Star Middle School next week."
"What?! Your saying that I have to go to public School! "That's right." Replied Chichi happily.
"Mom do I have to?" "Yes. You have to. Just think Gohan going to school, many opportunities will show themselves and you'll actually make friends your own age. Besides, I want you to get yourself a wife so I'll have grandchildren someday. Your going and that's final."
"Alright."
And with that Chichi left Gohan's room.
"I can't believe I'm actually going to school. I mean, how am I supposed to fit in? I've never been around kids my own age. And with all this, I'll have less time to train. Oh well, I'll see how this works out."

1 week later.
"Gohan time to get up! Remember, today's your first day of school!"
The young saiyan could only let out a groan. He didn't want to go to school. He was nervous about fitting in and hiding his amazing strength from everyone. But, mainly because of his saiyan side. It could try to get out at any moment. And 'he' was still out there, waiting for his decision.
Reluctantly he got up, took a shower and changed into a white long sleeved shirt and black pants. (It's the same outfit that he wore in the episode "A Girl Called Lime", in case you want to know more on how it looks).
Gohan made his way to the kitchen where Chichi had already made them breakfast.
"Good morning honey." Said Chichi. "Morning mom."
"How are you this morning sweetie?"
"Well, to the you the truth, I'm a little nervous. I've never been to school before so..."
"Don't worry. I'm sure you'll make a great first impression."
"Yeah I guess so."
After finishing eating, Gohan got ready to leave. "Nimbus!" The yellow cloud quickly came to view and stopped in front of the young saiyan. He jumped on it.
"Now, make sure to pay attention to all your teachers okay Gohan."
"Right. See you later mom."
With that he took off towards to class.
"Have a wonderful first day!" Yelled Chichi behind in the distance.

After flying for about 20 minutes, Gohan had finally arrived to the city. The saiyan jumped off the cloud. "Thanks for the ride Nimbus! I'll catch ya after class!"
In front of Gohan was a big sign that read 'Satan City'. And in front was a huge picture of Hercule Satan, the man who had supposedly beaten Cell. "I can't believe people actually think he saved the world. And they even named the city after him. Well, I'd better go. Don't want to be late on my first day."
With that Gohan took off running deeper into the city.
In the distance a bunch of gun fires could be heard. Gohan looked in the direction of the commotion and saw that a bank robbery was happening. And the police seemed to be having a hard time with the crooks. "Again with the robberies. Don't they ever learn their lessons? Might as well stop them."
Gohan turned into a super saiyan and prepared to jump into action.
"Hahaha! Take this you pigs!" Yelled one of the robbers as he shot at the cops. Of course they couldn't do anything but, hide behind a car to avoid being hit. "So much for the big bad police!"
Then out of nowhere the man that had been shooting was kicked in the side of his face. "What the hell was that!" Yelled another.
As the crooks saw who was behind that. They saw that it was only a kid with golden glowing hair and blue-green eyes.
"I suggest you guys stop this now unless you want to end up like your friend over there."
"You little brat. Nobody messes with us and get's away with it!" The man charged Gohan and threw a punch at him. Gohan ducked, easily evading it and punched the man in the stomach, knocking him out.
"Let's see how good you are now! Eat led!" The last crook that was standing started to fire at Gohan. The young saiyan ran through all the bullets being fired at him and punched the man, sending him to the ground, knocked out.
Everyone in the crowd was amazed. This little boy had just stopped these crooks all by himself, when the police couldn't even stop them.
One of the policemen walked up to Gohan. "Wow son. That was amazing. We sure could use you on the team. Good work out there. Thank you for the help."
Gohan smiled and put a hand behind his head. "It was nothing."
"By the way, what's your name my boy?" "My name? You can just call me the Gold Fighter."
Before any one else decided to ask questions, the young warrior decided to leave. "Well, ugh, I have to be headed off." With that Gohan took off into the sky.
After he had left Videl Satan had come to see what had happened.
"Oh hey there Videl!" It was the officer that had talked to Gohan a few moments ago. "It looks like your a little late the party. You should have seen it. A little boy about your age stopped these men all by himself. He was super fast and the bullets didn't even seem to face him."
~ A little boy my age? I wonder... ~
"How did this kid look like?"
"Well, he was wearing a white shirt with black pants. He had glowing golden hair with green eyes. He said to call him the Gold Fighter."
~ I knew it! So it really was him! I can't believe I missed him! ~
Videl remembered the last time they met. He had helped and saved her from a bunch of crooks. And he had just left her wondering who he truly was.
The cop broke her out of her thoughts. "I thought you might have known him since he had the Orange Star badge on him."
"All the kids at school have to wear this thing." Said Videl looking down at her badge. "If he really goes there, I will find him." She smiled. ~ I guess he was right. Fate it seems, will have us meet again. ~

At Orange Star Middle School, Gohan was in the principle's office getting his classes.
"Great to have you at our school. Here is your schedule and I've called one of my students to show you to your classes."
At that moment a young girl with black hair tied in two pig tails came in. "You wanted to see me sir."
"Ah, yes Videl. Gohan, this is Videl Satan. Videl this is Son Gohan. Videl can you kindly show Gohan to his classes?" Said the principal.
"Of course sir."
Both of them walked out of the principle's office.
~ I can't really place it, but she looks familiar to me. ~ Thought the eleven year old boy as he looked at Videl carefully.
"So, Gohan it looks like we have all the same classes together." Said Videl.
"Yeah. Looks that way. So, your the daughter of Mister Satan right?"
Videl nodded her head. ~ Oh no here it comes. Every time some one finds out about my father they freak out, all excited. ~
"That must be nice being a celebrity's daughter and all." "Yeah I guess."
~ I wonder why he didn't freak out if he knows who my dad is. Everyone else does. And now that I think about it. He's wearing the exact same clothing as that mysterious Gold Fighter... ~
~ Now I remember! She's the girl I helped stopped those bank robbers a few weeks ago. She really is a good fighter, compared to her dad I mean. I said that we might meet again but, I didn't think that would actually happen. ~
As the both of them thought about the other, they had made it to their first class which was math.
Videl walked in and sat down, while Gohan handed his papers to the teacher.
"Good morning class. Today we are having a new classmate join us. That's your cue my boy."
Gohan walked in, a bit nervous. "Hello. My name is Gohan."
"Gohan here made perfect results on his entry exams. English, math, chemistry, many of you can learn from his example." Most of the students found this amusing, a nerd joining the class.
"Quiet! You students are an embarrassment to public school! Now, Gohan, you may sit wherever you'd like."
He nodded his head. The teacher sat down at his own desk while Gohan looked around the room for an open seat.
"Yoohoo new boy! Here's one!" Said a girl with blonde hair and blue eyes. She was pointing to a desk next to her's. As Gohan walked closer, thanks to his saiyan hearing, he heard the blonde girl whisper something to Videl, "Look at him Videl. He's a cutie." Of course Videl could care less. Her friend was always checking out every single guy in the school.
The young half saiyan tried not to blush at that. Gohan took his seat and sat down. "I'm Erasa, with an E and this is my friend Videl." "Yeah. I know Videl, I met her just a few moments ago."
"You did?" Said Erasa looking at Videl. "How come you didn't say anything?" "Why? There was nothing to tell."
Erasa spoke, "So, Gohan did you just move into the city? Maybe we could study at your house." "No, I commute here." "Oh, that's cool. Where from?" "The 439 Mountain area. You see it's pretty small." Erasa stood from where she was sitting. "Get out of here! The 439 area is 500 miles away!"
Seeing as how Erasa wasn't paying attention, the teacher got mad. "Excuse me miss, but I am trying to teach a class!"
Erasa quickly sat down and got her book, pretending to read. The book covering her face, she whispered to Gohan. "How in the world do you get here? That's gotta be close to a five hour car drive." "Yeah, well. I guess that's how much my mom wants me to go to public school. I've been home schooled my whole life."
"By the way Gohan. I've been meaning to point out something." It was Videl who had spoken. "The Gold Fighter who had mysteriously vanished earlier after stopping a bank robbery, was said to be wearing a white shirt and black pants. Sound familiar?"
"How strange. You and the Gold Fighter dress alike." Said Erasa. "Yeah that is strange."
~ Oh great, she's on to me. ~ Thought Gohan.
"Come on Videl. You know he can't be the Gold Fighter. Who's ever heard of a little book nerd secretly being a super hero. The guy's gotta be buff." It was Sharpener who had spoken, the guy who was sitting next to Videl. He had long blonde hair and brown eyes.
Erasa spoke, "Ignore him. I bet you could fight crime if you wanted." "Oh, I doubt it."
Of course this did nothing to stop the ever suspicious Videl. ~ Maybe Sharpener's right. His hair's not even right. But, then again the fighters in the Cell Games videos changed their hair color, although dad said it was a cheap trick. ~
The rest of the day went on with not much happening except in P.E, where Gohan had caught a ball 25 feet in the air and didn't even seemed fazed by being hit by the baseball right in the face. And not to mention by hard he throws.
After school Videl had been following Gohan. She was hiding behind a tree. "How strange. He said he lives far away but, it looks like he's walking home."
Being able to sense ki, Gohan noticed Videl following him. Making a turn behind a building Gohan jumped up to the roof, leaving a stunned Videl from his sudden disappearance. "Where'd he go?"
"Fheww. This could turn annoying with her trying to find out my secret." Said Gohan as he flew off on the Flying Nimbus. "Might as go see Bulma to see if she can make me something so I can automatically change into my gi when stopping those bad guys."
And with that the young saiyan flew off to Capsule Corporation.
~ You only have a few months Son Gohan. Then I'll come back for you. ~
