Thanks for all the reviews. And it's been a month. I somehow lost the will to write this for a while… enjoy the chapter. ^^ This one is filler but with foreshadowing.
And so, the long journey to defeat the so-called invincible empire of the Cold Family continues. But at the time been, they were all stuck in a little (okay, maybe not so little) spaceship belonging to the saiyans.
It was kind of strange for Gohan, because he'd walk into random Neko clan people and saiyans in the halls. And other times he'd bump into the other Z fighters. He was used to just living with the Z fighters for long term trips to save the universe, or a small empty house with only Goten and his mother. Wherever he looked, there were people.
He found himself missing two people much more than he had thought. Bardock and Videl. Maybe missing Videl wasn't that much of a surprise, but missing his grandfather was. They were only together for a measly few months, and yet the absence took a great impact on the demi-saiyan. It was somewhat comforting to always have an adult who was calm and collected. Bardock never panicked too much… like father like son, huh?
Gohan was currently sitting by his girlfriend's coffin, which he had released. It would take them two weeks to reach Earth, so in the meantime with all that free time, he used it to stare at her lifeless body. He wiped the glass cover lovingly, brushing off any bits of dust that found their way onto there. "Videl, this is going to sound really weird," he said out loud, "but you still look pretty even though you're kinda.. ummm… dead." He chuckled at himself, scratching the back of his head.
"But in all seriousness, don't worry okay?" he continued. "You'll be alive in like three weeks. I'll get the dragon balls as quick as I can, okay? I'll wish you back, and you won't remember what it's like to be in the Otherworld.
Hey speaking of the Otherworld… Have you seen dad, Videl? Have you? Or even Grandpa? Hmm, you've never met dad before. But wait, you're in Heaven, right? You have to be. I mean, you have your body here, so you can't be at King Kai's, or wherever he is right now. But wait… are you strong enough to get his training anyways? Wait no, I mean like, of course you're strong enough. You can fly around and throw ki blasts. Videl, I think you're around the level of the third class saiyans.
Awww, now I'm starting ramble am I? Videl, I hope you don't find me annoying or boring now. Ugh, what am I doing? Talking to a dead body like this. ((sighs)) You're probably laughing at me right now, aren't you?" Gohan looked up to the ceiling and if he tried hard, he could almost hear her laugh in her tomboyish way. "Well yeah, I think I'll finish up here. Videl, I love you and miss you, as always."
PUFF~! Gohan tossed the capsule again, and the coffin disappeared into the little piece of metal. He turned around when he heard the door knock.
"Come in," he called out to the unknown person. The door creaked open and the person stepped forward. It was Vegeta Jr. Gohan's eyes boggled out. What was he doing here? And he was wearing Earth casual clothes. Ummm…?
"You wanna play so first person shooter games?" Jr. asked. "I wanted to find someone to play Call of Duty with."
Gohan sweat dropped. "COD? You actually have that game?" He was becoming slowly excited. He barely played any games like that because Chi-Chi didn't like the idea of more violence (with guns and bombs! Oh, the horrors!) than Gohan already had, and she didn't want Goten's innocent mind to be clouded with these thoughts.

Mirai walked happily by one of the many hallways. He just spent the last few hours sitting in the library of the saiyans, soaking in the galactic history, and everything about the saiyans. It was just so fascinating! To be honest, he thought that the wars and events were ten times as interesting as Earth's history.
To his surprise, Earth was barely mentioned. It was just thought as a planet inhabited by extremely primitive beings (NOT!) and not much of any importance. In truth, Earth was not so primitive as everyone thought, often carried the universe's worst enemies, and had many powerful people, AND it had a huge amount of valuable resources.
As he walked by a half opened door, he heard yells.
"GAH COVER ME! I'M OUT IN THE OPEN!" he heard someone scream.
"DON'T YELL AT ME I GOT ALL THESE PEOPLE ON ME RIGHT NOW!" another person yelled back. He recognized the voices as Gohan and Jr. What the heck are they doing? It sounded as if they were in a fierce fight.
"CAN'T YOU SEE THE BAZOOKA THERE? GET IT GET IT!"
"YOU GET IT YOURSELF! I'M VERY PREOCCUPIED AT THE MOMENT!"
The yelling continued, and Mirai's curiosity got the better of him. He poked his head in the doorway and nearly fell over. They were playing a first person shooter game, Call of Duty 4. Okay… he totally did not expect it to be something like that. Gohan and Jr.'s eyes were glued to the screen as their hands worked furiously on the controls, all the while yelling out in panic as they lost themselves in the game.
'Now, what would Chi-Chi think if I told her that her precious son was playing a shooting game?' he thought in amusement. There would be a lot of screaming, frying-pan-hitting, and fainting involved. Mirai grinned. And if he told anyone on the ship what the two were doing, they would think he went mad.
The saiyan king playing something like this… and Gohan getting so into it as well. Mirai laughed.

A cold voice rang out in a dark room far away.. "I expect the five of you to defeat them. I will not tolerate loosing. Do not come back if you didn't complete the mission, none of you. And capture Son Gohan, alive."
Lightning flashed in the distance. It revealed five people kneeling to Kuriza.
And done. XD I love Call of Duty myself, to be honest. Keep in tune for the next chapter! And as always, reviews are greatly appreciated. ^^ Peace~
