Chapter V: Trapped
Disclaimer: This story is for Fanfiction hence I'm just a fan-girl with a fairly good social life.
Last Time on Dream Called Reality: A man comes running up to the king and queen, bows and says, "Your highnesses, YOUR HIGHNESSES! We have discovered that on the same night Prince Gohan left, so did the servant Videl. We are lead to believe that she had something to do with his disappearance."
"So what your saying is," Chi-Chi began, "that little wench stole our son? She will pay the ultimate price! Off with her head! Then we shall feed her body to the dogs and give the leftovers to the crocodiles in the moat! And we'll make her head watch it all!"
Goku blinked. He understood where she was coming from but, he had never seen this side of his wife.
"Also," the man says, "we believe he is in a cave in Caratho forest. We also just got word that there are rocks blocking one of the entrances."
"Well, break through them! I am a Queen and I want my Prince!" Chi-Chi screamed. She wanted her son.
Gohan and Videl had been wandering in the cave for two and half hours...
"Gohan," Videl says, "we are not getting out of here, are we?"
"Videl, I'm sure...I...I don't...I don't know to tell the truth. We haven't been searching for an exit for a full day. We don't know what tomorrow will bring." He says.
She turns to him, "The flame is dying. I'm not sure how much longer it will survive before...poof!"
"I never thought I'd go out like this." Gohan states.
"What do you mean?" She asks.
"I'd never think that I would perish, trapped in a cave with you of all people, by a-"
"What's that's supposed to mean?!" She screams, "Let me guess. Let's see. You are to good to die alone with some worth less peasant that cleans my room! I thought you were my best friend!" By the end of the of the outburst, Videl was on the verge of tears.
"Videl," He begins, "You are my best friend. I don't know what-" Videl throws a rock at his head and she yells, "Shut up!"
"Listen to me."
She turns around facing away from him, "Shut up, Princey! You don't care about me! You just needed someone to do your dirty work! Well, I'm through! Goodbye!"
She ran off throwing the flame on the ground, glowing so very faintly. Gohan picked it uprunning after her.
'Why can't I tell her that I love her?' He wonders, 'Now she hates me! Smooth move, Gohan! Smooth move! I can't believe I said that. I am so stupid! Videl is amazing! She's like a dream in a reality. Man, I need more romantic lines. That was sweet but, really cheesy.'
'I'm such a fool,' Videl thinks, 'The man I love does not love me back. I knew I should not have hoped. Hope is stupid! I could hope for a way out of here but what is that going to do! Why is it so easy to confuse dreams with reality. Wh-' "AH!" Videl screams.
The sound reverberates through the cave. "Videl? Videl? Videl?!" He screams loudly, "I'm coming for you Videl!"
"Gohan?! Help me!" Videl screams.
He runs through the cave looking for her. After searching and searching he almost dies laghing at what he sees. Videl's entire right leg was stuck in a hole. He pulls her out of it and he looks a little more. He saw gold.
Gold. Thousands upon thousands of tons of gold. Z was saved. Unfortunately, they weren't.
"Gold Gohan! Gold!" She yells. "We've enough to buy and sell the whole continent for crying out loud!"
"This is amazing. I-" He begins.
"Hey Gohan. Remember that first night when you said, 'Goodnight, Beautiful' did d-d-did you m-mean th-that?" She asks hopefully looking into his black eyes.
"W-w-well y-y-you...I-I...g-g-g- Hey, what's that?" He asks. Not only did he find something cool, but he got to change the subject. Bonus. He walks over to it and picks it up.
"It looks like a Dragonball." Videl says, "If you collect all seven, the eternal dragon, Shenron, will grant you one wish. Back to my subject; did you mean it when you called me beautiful?"
"Wait. I can see you." Gohan says.
Videl nods her head and looks at him like he's a few eggs short of a muffin.
"You can see me, can't you?" He asks
Once again, Videl nods her head and looks at him like he's a few eggs short of a muffin.
"The flame went out so-"
Videl opens her eyes happily, "We must be near an exit!"
The young prince Goten wanders around the castle. He was looking for his brother. Maybe they were wrong; maybe Gohan was in the refrigerator.
Goten opened the refrigerator door. No big brother there. Well, since he was there, he should get a light snack. Hmm, a cookie, a full meatloaf, and an entire steak. That sound perfectly light to Goten.
After Goten inhaled, not ate, not devoured, not ingested, but inhaled his food, he went to look in the toy room. On the way he saw a man he had mever seen before. He looked like him.
"Who are you Mr.?" Goten asks.
"Why I'm Netog! Nice to meet you Goten," M. Goten says holding out his hand. Goten happily shakes it.
"I'm looking for my big brother Netog. He went away. He said he didn't want to live here anymore. I miss him lots. Why did he leave?" Goten asks with tears in his eyes, "Does he hate me?"
"No. He doesn't hate you. He just wanted to get away from the stress of bing the prince of Z. That's all. He loves all of you. You, your mother, your father," M. Goten says, "Videl." He says Videl queitly but Goten still hears it.
"My brother loves Videl? The pretty cleaning lady who always sings to me and makes mt room smell like Cotton Candy?" Goten asks and M. Goten nods, "Yay! My brother is getting married to a nice lady!" Goten cheers and runs off.
"Okay, let me on your shoulders and boost me up." Videl says, "Then I shall lift you up."
"Sure," He replies.
In case you haven't figured it out yet, the exit they found, is at the top of the cave.
Videl climbed onto Gohan's shoulders, pulled herself up, and screamed "FREEDOM!"
"Not for long." A voice says.
"HELP ME GOHAN!" She screams.
A/N: I'm gonna be evil and stop the chappie right there. My stories are gonna take longer to upload because my laptop screen is screwed up. My dad will fix it eventually but until then, I will use this iPad, my little sister's kindle, an older than dirt computer, and my other computer that moves at the speed of snail.
Until my next update, peace off. For reading this, bless your face. And if you sneezed while reading this fic bless you.
