Today Videl was going to talk to Gohan and ask him all about yesterday. She even went to school for twenty minutes early. The only thing was that the boy had come at the last minute. So she waited there for nothing and was a very bad mood. Well, she would talk to him right after the first period.

Gohan couldn't concentrate on the lesson. He felt as if someone was staring at him. He looked around and then his eyes met hers. Videl's blue eyes were glaring at him. Gohan gulped and turned back to his school works. Why was she staring at him like that?

The bell rang, which meant end of the lesson. Videl watched as the students began to leave the classroom, Gohan included.

"Videl, are you coming?" Erasa asked.

"You go ahead. I have some things to do." The raven haired girl said before she went after Gohan.

It didn't took Gohan long to realize, that he was being followed. Videl had taken all the same turns and curves as he, and she came closer to him with every step. Gohan had to find a way to get rid of her. He looked around, trying to find an escape, and then it came. Boys restroom. The half-saiyan marched in, but to his surprise, so did Videl.

"Ah. I don't think you should be here." Gohan said.

"I need to talk to you, so don't you try to run away." Videl said sharply.

"Hey! What are you doing here? This is the boys bathroom!" Some random kid yelled.

"Oh, shut up!" Videl yelled back and looked at him viciously.

The kid backed off and kept quiet.

Ok, so maybe this wasn't the best place to talk. They had to find more private spot. Videl grabbed Gohan's sleeve and started to drag him through the corridors. She let him loose only when they had found a better place for talking.

"I wanna know everything that happened yesterday." Videl said seriously.

"What do you mean?"

"Don't play dumb! You know exactly what I mean! How you stopped that robber!" Videl yelled.

Gohan didn't know what he was suppose to say. "Umm... Well. You see..." He was looking up and scratching his head, trying to find the right words.

Videl's patience was at an end. She let out an annoyed grunt. The pigtail girl dropped her backpack to the ground and took out a newspaper. She turned a couple of pages and then threw the paper to Gohan. He looked puzzled.

"Well?" Videl said impatiently. "You gonna read it, or do you want me to read for you?"

"Yesterday afternoon, the well-known computer company's employee was a victim of a robbery. The perpetrator is a man who apparently belongs to a small criminal organization. The man has confessed and the victim is doing well. There is a rumor that the mystery boy prevented the robbery by crushing the gun with his bare hands. Police would not comment." Gohan read. Uh-Oh. This wasn't good. "You know how people exaggerate things sometimes." The demi-saiyan said.

"So you're saying that they are all lying, is that what you say?" Videl asked.

"Well, no. I mean.." Gohan was out of words.

"How do I know that you aren't one of the bad guys. I mean this whole situation is somehow suspicious."

"I was just walking past and tried to help." Gohan said.

"Why did you ran off then?"

"I was in hurry."

"Right." Videl said sarcastically. "To where? Home. And I thought you lived far away, so why where you walking?

"I was going some...where." How imaginative. Gohan mentally slaped him self.

Videl pinched the brige of her nose. "This isn't going anywhere."

Then the bell rang. Gohan sighed in relief. "It's time to go to class." The young boy said and quickly walked away.

"I know you're hiding something and I'm going to find out what. You'll just wait." Videl yelled after him.

The rest of the day, Gohan avoided Videl as much as he could. And so the second day of school went by.

"Hey, Gohan!" Erasa yelled from a distance, waving.

Gohan turned his head and saw how Erasa was running towards him.

"Videl and I tought that would you like to come with us to the mall?"

"I probably should just go home. My mom get worried easily." Gohan said while thinking that this was probably some kind of a scheme to get him to talk.

"Oh come on. Just for a little while. I'm sure your mom understand." Erasa begged.

I doubt it. Gohan thought.

"And besides, you can always tell a little white lie. Like, the school day was a little bit longer. I mean, that's what I do." Erasa continued pleading. "Please Gohan."

"Well my mom did say I should make friends, so I guess I can come for a little while." Gohan gave up. He was really bad saying no. And it was not like he hadn't done this kind of things before. He sneaked out all the time, when he was still in homeschool. So this wasn't so much different.

"Yay!" Erasa jumped for joy. "Come on, let's go." The blond girl rushed Gohan. "Videl had to go home first, but she said she'll meet us at the Café" And the two began to walk to their destination.

"Where is she?" Erasa whined. "She should already be here."

Gohan shrugged.

"She don't even answer her cell." Erasa said in frustration.

Then they heard someone say. "Hey turn up the volume."

Gohan and Erasa turned their heads towards the television, what they now heard clearly.

"The police have agreed to the demands of robbers and civilians are coming out of the bank." The reporter explained. He then but his hand to his ear as if listening to something. "I have just been informed that one of hostages have not been released. That person is Videl Satan. This young girl who bravely went to the bank about to stop this robbery, is now being held hostage."

There were gasping all over the Café. Erasa looked terrified. And Gohan furrowed his eyebrows. Everyone kept listening the news.

"They are coming out of the bank. And they have Videl with them. Oh, I hope that Mr. Satan would be here." The newsman reported.

On the TV screen they saw how three armed men were coming out of the building and one of them was holding the tied Videl. Protected by guns, the men walked slowly to the car, put the money bags to the trunk and drove off.

"The police cannot do anything but watch. They have been warn not to follow. Following could mean end of Videl Satan. How tragic day this is." The reporter explained dramatically.

Gohan stood up from his chair and ran out of the Café.

Erasa stood up too. "Hey Gohan, where're you going? Wait! Gohan!" But the boy was already gone.

Videl was laying in the back seat of the car. How could she let herself get captured. She had never lost to anyone. She was the World Champions daughter. Losing wasn't an option, never. But here she was, helplessly laying in the car, how pathetic.

The car made a sudden stop. "What the hell?" One of the men said. They saw a young boy standing front of the car. Only one who didn't saw was Videl, since she was lying down.

"Where did he came from?" One of the men asked.

"I don't know, but he's in our way." Driver replied and then shouted from his window. "Get out of our way boy, we're in a hurry."

The boy didn't move. "You have my friend in that car. Release her." Gohan said.

Videl couldn't hear clearly, but the voice sounded familiar.

"Hmph. I'm afraid we can not do that." The driver said, in a mocking voice. He started the engine and hit the gas. But the boy didn't move out of the way as the driver though he would. Gohan extended his arm and when it hit the car, he started to slide in front of it. The vehicle slowed down and eventually stopped completely.

"W-what was that." Asked the man in the backseat.

The driver growled. "This damn car. What a piece of garbage." He opened the door and took out his gun. "I'm just gonna shoot the kid."

But Gohan was faster. The man had barely come out of the car, when Gohan was already in front of him and slapped the gun out of his hand.

"You little.." The man cursed and tried to hit Gohan, but the saiyan boy dodged easily.

Trying to restrain his powers, Gohan punched the driver in the stomach. And in an instant the man was unconscious.

"Little brat!" Another man shouted and shot towards the boy. Once again, Gohan easily dodged the attack against him. And before the man had time to realize what hit him, he was already knocked out. Then Gohan went to open the back seat door and lifted Videl out.

"G-Gohan?" Videl said in amazement. But before she could say more there was yet another voice.

"Where you think you're going?" It was the last of the robbers and he had to be at least three times Gohan's size.

The saiyan boy released Videl from her binding and looked at the girl. "Wait here."

"No. I can help." The girl argued.

Gohan gave Videl assuring smile. "I'll be fine."

For some reason, Videl didn't felt like arguing. Did she really trust this boy? Be careful Gohan.

The young saiyan walked over to the giant man, no slightest fear on his face.

"Puny brat! I'll crush you!" The gigantic man yelled.

Gohan didn't waited, he merely kicked the man. The robber flew several meters backwards before hitting the ground and didn't get up.

Videl looked at Gohan with open mouth. He had beaten that enormous man just with one kick. Well, now to think of it, Gohan had beaten all of those men, but this one Videl saw with her own eyes.

"You should probably call the police now." Gohan said to shocked Videl.

"Wait, you're going?" Videl asked when she saw how Gohan was about to leave.

"Yeah. Or is there something you need?" Gohan was faceing Videl once again.

"You can't go. You saved me. Do you know what it means? I'm Hercule Satan's daughter, you'll probably get a medal, or something. You will become a hero." Videl explained.

"Well, I'm not really interested in that kind of stuff. And actually I would appreciate it if you wouldn't tell anyone." Gohan said.

"What. Why?" Videl was confused.

"I rather be in private. You can take the credit if you want. I don't mind." Smiling Gohan said.

"What are you hiding Son Gohan?"

"Uh.." Gohan was startled.

Videl gave a little chuckle and smile. "Ok, lets make a deal."

"A deal?" Gohan questioned.

"Yeah. I won't tell anyone if you will grant me five wishes."

"I'm not a genie." Gohan's sweat dropped.

"Not that kind of wishes you idiot. I mean, if I ask you a question you have to anwer it truthfully. Or if I ask you to do something you have to do it."

"Isn't that the same thing?"

"What ever." Videl rolled her eyes. "So? What you say?"

"Hmm.. I don't know."

"It's either that or publicity. So do we have a deal?" Videl held out her hand, ready for a handshake.

Gohan though for an other moment before he gave in and shook the girl's hand. Videl's smile grew wider bacause of her victory.

"I'm gonna call the police now, so you better get going." The pigtailed girl said. "See you tomorrow."

"Yeah. Bye." Gohan started running and when he was sure Videl couldn't see, he blasted off.

Gohan stepped inside his house. "Gohan! Where have you been? Do you know what time it is? You should've been home ages ago. I've been so worried. I even called Bulma and Master Roshi. You know better than to come home late. So, where were you?" Chi-chi -as usual- overreacted.

Should he tell the truth? Should he lie? "I made some friends and they asked me to go to the mall with them. And time just flew by. I'm sorry mom." It wasn't exactly a lie.

"I'm glad that you made friends, but that's not an excuse." Chi-chi said and then sighed. "I guess I have to reheat the dinner. But after you've eaten, you do your homework, alright?" She said sternly.

"Yes mom."

I try to update sooner this time. (I stress the word TRY) :D I hope you review.
