So between the holiday that is thanksgiving, then the massive fires in southern california, i have had other priorities, so a bit behind. But here we go! just wanted to let you all know the hiatus isn't appearing again! Happy Holidays! assuming your reading this when its posted!
It had already been a long morning for everyone. Sharpner and Videl had been hard at work learng to use their Ki. It had not looked like much as they were mostly sitting and laying down trying to connect and move their Ki. But they had gotten tired from it. And Gohana had been trying hard to help explain and help them connect to their ki faster. But now they were relaxing, and sitting before their lunch.
"Thanks again for all the food Chichi!" Videl said happily, as she waited for everything to arrive at the table.
"Yes, thanks." Sharpner added.
"Think nothing of it kids. I already am making a mountain of it for these three anyway." Chichi said placing the last plate of food down and then sat down.
"So how is your training going?" Chichi asked as she started filling her plate as the others followed.
"Well so far we learned how to connect with our Ki and move it around. Feels very surreal. But oddly calm and powerful at the same time." Video answered while grabbing her food.
"Well from what I've heard, the two of you would benefit from it, especially you Videl! Fighting crime and everything. I'm surprised that Erasa isn't learning this with you guys."Chichi stated as she started eating.
"Why would Erase be interested in learning to use Ki? I thought it was just for fighting?" Sharpner asked confused, the last to finish grabbing food as the three Saiyans started frantically eating.
"Well yes I would imagine that is what you two may use it for. But from what little I can do from these three explainig, there isn't much of a limit. I even remember my Goku had a Ki infused Power pole, it could lengthen and retract at will." Chichi said starting eat her food.
"Wait, what? You can do that with Ki?"
"Well the pole was special. It's not like you could make anything do that. But yes, you could potentially do anything with it to my understanding. Even though I can't really use mine."
"Gohana, why didn't you say that?" Videl asked as Gohana just looked at her confused with her cheeks stuffed with chicken.
"Well, what good is it if you can't even do basics. Plus you guys wanted to learn it to fight better anyway. So I just decided to explain the stuff that applied to you both."
"Well that part is true, but what else can be done with it?" Sharpner asked now more curious than ever.
Gohana had to think about it for a second. Not because she didn't know, but it all was such a norm for her she had ot decide what to say. She knew all about Master Roshis technique, Tiens and Chiaotzu. Even Dende had tried to teach her a little bit as well. And all of them were totally different things all revolving around their Ki. And she had spent so long trying to really master her Ki manipulation.
"Well, some of the more odd things...Master Roshi can use his Ki to generate Lighting. Also some type of hypnosis as well. Though I never really have asked him how to do it." she started and taking normal human sized bites as she thought. "Telepathy also is a pretty simple thing to learn. Piccolo taught me shortly after I started training seriously after the Cell games. I couldn't do it with someone else before unless they actively did it. But now I can do it." Taking a few more bites, Gohana tried to think of everything the other Z fighters have taught her over the years.
"You can make copies of yourself Nee-chan!" Raina input.
"Wait, copies? What do you mean by that?" Videl asked confused, though she was sure she already knew the answer.
"Oh, it's one of Tien's techniques. He used in against my dad in a Budokai Tournament. Its a technique where you make physical copies of yourself. The downside to it is that however many copies you make split your capabilities between them. Piccolo can also do it, and they both taught me that as well."
Videl and Sharpner just starred at Gohana in shock. With everything they had learned about just the last few days, they still couldn't believe what they were hearing. And this was all just with what they were learning to control. Gohana just went back to eating her food as normal, while Videl and Sharpner were deep in thought as they were eating.
"Pardon for me asking Videl. You seem so interested and open to learning all of this, but why does your father bash what my family can do?" Chichi asked.
"Well, to be honest I don't really know. I would honestly say because he doesn't want to admit that someone out there is stronger than he is. I'm so used to it though, but honestly there was a part of me that never truly believed him. I recall after the Cell games he was on TV almost daily saying it was all fake, and a hoax. But the more he kept telling everyone else that, the more suspicious of it I grew. Now that I think about it, how come you guys never came forward about it? I'm sure you all knew about it, I mean Chichi you seemed to know about it when we first meet. Why didn't any of you come forward and prove him wrong?"
"To be honest, we all wanted to." Chichi started, placing her food down. "But Gohana, she..." looking back at her daughter, Gohana looking back and placing her food down and finished the food already in her mouth, taking a deep breath to calm herself.
"I couldn't handle it. My dad died when I was four, saving me. And I felt responsible for it, if I hadn't gone out when he was beaten by Raditz. I wouldn't have been taken. Even though he was wished back though. I never forgot it, and it stuck with me. Then watching my friends die fighting Vegita and Nappa, becuase I was too weak, was to scared." Gohana looked down at her food remembering it all, why she started her training back up again. "We could have wished dad back, using the Dragonballs from Namek. We even had the go ahead from the Namekian elder. But King Yemma, he told me that because of my carelessness, he wasn't allowing it. And that it was to punish me for not stopping Cell when I could have, for trying to use the Dragonballs to fix my mistakes." Gohana was trying to keep her composure, and so far she was successful in doing so. "I couldn't do anything for almost three months after then because of it. And none of my family wanted to make it even worse for me."
Everyone had now stopped eating. Videl and Sharpner just stared at their friend in shock, but not as big of a shock as Gohana's own family. None of them had ever seen her so open even talk about this to anyone other than Piccolo or Krillen years ago.
"But, I came out of it." she said with a big smile, looking quickly at Goten and Raina. "I started my training again, I grew closer to Vegita and Piccolo and Krillen. And eventually I just didn't care if the world knew, I just would prefer them not so my family can all keep their privacy. None of us really want the spotlight or attention anyway, I already have revoked my position as Princess of the Fire kingdom, but everyone there still treats me as such. But they know I don't like it either. I just want to live a normal a life as possible. Well, normal enough for someone who trains to keep the Earth safe." Gohana said and picked her food back up and slowly continued eating.
Looking up, Gohana could tell the energy of the room had totally shifted, and she felt a little nervous now.
"Hey don't mind me okay, lets just eat so we can continue your training for today. okay?" she said nervously.
"Hey, I'll eat to that!" Sharpner said and continued eating, trying to help shift the room. being successful at it as well.
Returning to where they had started training earlier, Gohana looked much happier now. But food usually seemed to have that effect on her anyway. Videl and Sharpenr were both a little bit nervous about what their training was now going to be. They already knew that they were going to take a break from the ki for now and focus on their physical training. But they had no idea what that would include.
Popping the capsule, Gohana tossed it in front of her as large orb shaped structure was now in front of them. Gohana walked up to it as Videl and Sharpner both just stared at it with curiosity.
"When I am training you both, we will be in here. You won't need the training weights for this. But later when you train on your own you will." She said hit a button on the side causing the door to open.
Walking up the stairs that had retracted Gohana waved them both forward, as they quickly followed her. Once they were inside, Gohana closed the door behind them as Videl just walked around. Sharpner was busy just looking around where he stood. Neither of them found anything particularly exciting in the room. The entire place was just empty. It even seemed a little bit bigger than it should be from the outside.
Walking over to the center panel and setting the counter to 1.5x, she turned back to her friends with a big smile.
"Alright you two, I want you do to get ready. The gravity is about to go up!"
"WHAT!?" from both Shaprner and Videl, the extreme shock evident on their faces as their eyes were wise with shock.
"This is a gravity room, it can simulate higher gravities and increase the difficulty of training." Gohana causally explained. "Don't you guys know about hypergravity training rooms? I know for a fact they exist for use for professional sports teams."
"Are you kidding me! The entire Sports world knows about Capsule Corps Gravity Chamber for athletes! Everyone in the world who is an athlete tries to get access to one" Shaprner said in shock
"These things cost billions! There are only like, two or three in the world! My dad can't even get Capsule Corp to allow him to try theirs, let alone buy them! How the hell do you have one!" Videl shouted in shock, having always wanted to try one for the last three years since it was publicly announced.
"Uh, well my sparing partner...Well he..." Gohana tried to change the subject but knew they would find out anyway. But she kept reverting to trying to hide things.
"My sparring partner lives at Capsule Corp, and he demanded I have one as well." Gohana slightly let the truth be half true, still not fully ready to let them know not only she knows Bulma, but technically works for Capsule Corp as well.
"They just gave you one?" Videl was still in shock about this.
"Look I promise I'll explain more later, but for today I want to focus on your training." Gohana said, with an excited nod from them both.
They were not about to argue about that though. They were able to finally actually try using a Gravity Chamber. They had been wanting to try these for so long, and they always heard the stories about how much of a drastic difference just standing and trying to walk around made to their performance in their sport. The stories from the professionals about their time inside one, and how they instantly felt a difference just walking out of one.
"Alright, were going to start out a bit light today so you guys can get used to the higher gravity. Though you're not quiet used to it, so it may feel a little bit odd." Gohana started. "Before I start it up, you may feel like your organs are shifting a bit. Though to be honest your bodies will adapt to it in time. You just want to make sure to never try truly relaxing in it."
"Wait, just how much are we going to try today?" Sharpner asked.
"Well, I thought about two times gravity, but figured just setting it to one and a half would be a better place to start so you both can still move around a bit better." She said and then looked confused at their reactions.
"Wait, you mean your's goes up to twice gravity? I thought they only just recently got the technology to simulate twice! You already have one?" Sharpner asked, having always studied up on it.
"Um, well technically..." Gohana started and started reflexively rubbing her neck.
"Gohana?" Videl said in her usual 'tell me or else' tone.
"Mine actually goes up to six hundred and fifty times gravity." looking the other direction.
Both of them just stared at her in shock and disbelief. How could anyone even handle a few times gravaity, let alone that amount. They knew enough about physics that even fighter pilots struggle with ten g's for short bursts of time. They would surely be killed.
"Gohana, may I ask how anything can even function in that much gravity?" Sharpner asked her.
"Well for starters, Saiyans evolved on a world with ten times Earths gravity, so that helps my body naturally can handle it a bit better. But even Lime and Krillen sometimes use the gravity chamber and can handle fifty for a usual training day. Though they both prefer outside the chamber. It just took them a while to adapt to it is all. But their bodies don't get harmed as long as they progress safely." Gohana explained.
"Um, Gohana?" Videl asked her face now a little flushed.
"Yeah?" Gohana looked over at her.
"Um what about...well our chest?" Videl asked a little worried.
"Oh, don't worry about that. Lime had the same worry actually. But your body will adapt just fine."
"But..." Videl protested for a few seconds.
"Videl, if you think about it Lime is bigger than you, and can handle up to a hundred g's. You'll be fine." Gohana answered, causing a very annoyed look from Videl.
"Fine!" Videl blurted out and turned looking annoyed.
Gohana didn't know how to respond now. She just looked confused at why Videl was reacting the way she did, and looked over to Sharpner just getting a shrug from him.
"Can we just start now?" Videl asked annoyed.
With a slight smile, and a nod, Gohana hit the button to trigger the gravity chamber. It started its usual humming noise as it gets ready to increase, as Videl and Sharpner both looked around the room with excitement, but they were both very nervous.
All of a sudden Videl and Sharpner had a sudden shock as they both suddenly struggled just to stand up. They were both strong enough to easily squat more than their own body weight, but this was different. Everything felt heavier, even their own fingers. They could both feel their heart rate suddenly jump from the sudden demand it was under, and the struggle on their face was very evident.
"Alright, I want you both to just try walking." Gohana said with a smile.
"Walking? I though we were here to train?" Shaprner protested.
Videl knew better at this point. She was stubborn, and felt the same as Sharpner just verbally expressed, but she knew Gohana had something in her mind. Taking a single step forward, Videl suddenly found herself almost in a lunge, and she struggled just to stand back up. She knew this was what Gohana had in mind. They were used to moving external weight, like she and Sharpner trained at her dad's gym. But this wasn't what they were used to. She knew it wasn't just about the extra weight they suddenly had on them, it was the extra weight everything in her body weighed. She knew about fighter pilots had issues with extra gravity and passing out due to the blood having a difficult time to get up to the brain. But according to Gohana, Lime trained in fifty, and could handle a hundred times gravity. Clearly she could handle more than the measly ten most pilots experienced. And if Lime could do it, so could she.
"Fuck, this is so different." Sharpner said as he tried walking as well. It wasn't impossible to move, but it wasn't easy either. The gravity seemed to make them fall farther forward with each step, catching themselves caused it to feel like a real workout. "And you can handle six hundred times gravity?"
"Yes, but that's mostly when I am specifically trying to actually do some general strength training actually. But at that point I'm not doing any sparring work or anything else. Mostly just push ups, sits ups, that type of stuff. And I limit myself by not going Super Saiyan. Though I will power up. I just don't see the use for increasing the gravity limit until I can get back to the amount of reps I usually build up to."
"You have a usual amount of reps you do? How much?" Sharpner asked as he continued the walking, now a little used to being flung forward more, but it didn't make the walking any easier.
"Usually at least ten thousand reps. Usually takes me a while though. But then I bump it up the gravity by fifty when,"
"What? Ten thousand? Like as in total, right?" Sharpner asked having fallen on his butt from surprise, Videl still a little shocked as well but she was a little used to her strength from fighting crime together.
"Total? No i never really bothered with that. I mean ten thousand in one go."
"No way." Sharpner muttered under his breath as he tried his best to get back up. He had to roll over and get on his hands and knees to be able to do so, however.
Gohana ran them through the most basic of things for the next two hours. They had continued with the walking for a while, until Gohana had them doing just simple squatting. This was at least something they were used to doing already do they had the idea down. However, it didn't surprise her just how out of breath they were. They were both drenched in sweat, gasping for air even when they were not doing anything. They had moved onto simple push ups and sit ups as well. Neither of them did very well in just about anything they did though. Their lungs were on fire, as was their entire body.
Sharpner had expected it to be rather easy to handle only fifty percent more gravity, but just the simple act of walking had already humbled him. Between the Ki training earlier, and now the physical training, he knew all he had to do was do what Gohana was telling them to do. As long as he put in the effort to do so, it would work! That was how he had obtained the strength and physique that he already had built, and he was already damned proud of being allowed to train in Hercules private gym. Not because he was Videl's childhood friend, but because he had earner the right just like everyone else there. He has listened to what those better than him said, and it paid off. He was not about to let that change now. He went through everything, every grueling rep of very simple things, without complaining. As much as his body was complaining to him.
Videl was very much the same. She had repeatedly seen the results of training that Gohaha does. Not only that, but she always thought she was better than even Lime, but she was also trained by Gohana for years already. And thinking back to all their sparring sessions, sure she had won them all but she was usually tired and exhausted afterwards. She really had to work for it every time. But Lime never even seemed to be tired afterwards. It all made sense to her now. If she was put through all of this, and had that level of ability, why would she hide it? But it didn't matter, this was what Lime did to obtain the strength she had. She still wasn't sure what her true power was, but she knew better than to think anymore that she was stronger than Lime.
Gohana just watched them, gauging how they were responding to everything. She had already trained both Goten and Raina, then Lime. So adding two more at this point were pretty easy. Though she was a little surprised that neither of them ever really complained. She remembers Lime complaining a lot when they first started, but she still did it while complaining. But these two not once complained about doing anything. If anything they kept complaining they wouldn't give up. It was all under their breath, most likely form the strain of just breathing and not talking to loudly, but her sensitive ears were able to pick them up anyway.
After a while, Gohana thought that it was enough for today. They had been at it already for a few hours just doing the basics. She knew their bodies would adapt, but for now on their first day, this was enough. Walking over to the panel, she hit the button to return the gravity to normal.
"Alright you two, you did really great today! Honestly you both did far better than I thought that you would in you first time in heightened gravity!" She said as the gravity returned to normal, causing both of them to almost stumble with the suddenness of returning to normal weight.
"Holy crap that is the hardest things I've ever had to do." Videl said still breathing heavily, though now it was suddenly far easier.
"Yeah, I second that." Shaprner said.
"So as you practice in higher gravity your heart and lungs will adapt. The muscles and tissues of your blood system will also become stronger. So you wont have to wrory about the acceleration and deceleration of extra g forces. And the breathing will become easier."
"So the gravity wont kill us?"
"No, it won't. When I first started training I would feel the effects of moving at high speed. But even without the gravity room, just moving at high speeds generates gravitational acceleration against the body. The body will also adapt to it. Eventually even your organs will not be damaged with suddenly stopping, within reason."
Both Videl and Sharpner both were fascinated by what Gohana was saying. They both knew the physics of it, if you fall from a twenty story building, its not the fall that kills you, but the sudden deceleration. But here Gohana was telling them that practicing with higher gravity, and moving at high speeds, would condition they internal organs and they wouldn't get hurt by extra g forces.
"So how long will it take us to get used to it?" Videl asked.
"Depends on how often you train with it. For now, the qeoghted cloths will be simulating it a little, until i can get ypu both your own."
Both of them suddenly had the same look Gohana associated with Raina and Goten when they passed a candy store. In an odd way she found it rather cute, especially Videl.
"It may only take me a few days to get you them, so you'll have it by the end of the week. But for the time being, I want you both to have the weighted cloths on at all time, starting now."
"You mean right now?"
"Yup! Now get to it." Gohana smiled.
Both of then stood up and hit the button on their watch ad they suddenly felt the weight of the cloths. they were ready tired enough from the gravity, but now this? They knew they would be feeling this tomorrow. While the extra weight was challanging, it didn't seem as bad after the heightened gravity.
"Sharpner, why exactly do you want to learn this?"
"Well, obviously to get stronger for starters. But also, seeing the things you can do, i wanna achieve the most that I can." he answered while breathing heavily again.
"Okay, well honestly i want you to practice Ki manipulation every day. when you can easily handle making an ki ball easily will start on the next phase."which she got a nod from. "Though, Videl I want to practice with you a couple time a week."
"What? Why only me? And what about Sharpner?" Videl pouted, not too sure what she was feeling about that.
"For starters, he wants to better himself, so he can go more at his pace. But you actually are out fighting crime almost daily, putting your life at risk. You're more like me in that way, so i really want to make sure you get the training you need."
Videl didnt have anything against that to say. It made sense to her that she would need more direct work due to her lifestyle. And having Gohana teaching her directly more often would be a good idea.
"Alright you two, lets get going. Mom mentioned an early dinner for us. And then Raina and I will take you both home." Gohana said and headed to the door.
Sure enough, Raina and Goten were standing at the bottom of the staircase as it opened. Gohana took just a few steps and couldnt help but laugh a little bit.
"Of course you two would want to watch."
"Nee chan, your really training Videl!" Raina said excited.
"Yeah, Sharpner as well."
it took a few moments for both Videl and Sharpner to get down the stairs. They were very cautious so that they wouldn't trip. But they just kept it up. Walking over to the table, the extra weight obvious to almost anyone that was looming at them. Gohana was just behind them after capsulizing her gravity chamber. She was making sure to keep a close eye on both if them as they walked. She didn't see any signs of issues from the heightened gravity.
"There you kids are, dinner is..." Chichi stopped once she saw how both of them were walking. "Gohana!"
"Um, yeah mom?" Gohana flinched at her mothers tone.
"Are you seriously going to make them wear those training weights all the time? I swear you are becoming more and more like your father." She sighed.
"But, I guess I really cant blame you that much. And they did agree to be your students, just like Lime did."
"It's alright Chichi. We've both seen first hand just how strong Gohana is. If this training gets us stronger, I'll do whatever she throws at me." Videl said with fire in her voice as she managed to sit down on the bench, almost hurting her butt.
"Yeah, same here." Sharpner said, sitting across from Videl.
Sitting down next to Videl, Gohana just smiled at them both.
"You both are doing amazing though! After only the first day you both can already move your Ki around. Sharpenr, you need a bit more practice. I think Videl you always being in dangerous situations makes you more sensitive to it subconsciously." Gohana explained.
"Gohana sweety, would you mind at least going upstairs and changing? Our guests at least have cloths on. Go put on what i picked out for you on your bed please."
Gohana looked back at both of them. Sharpner just had some sweat pants and tank top, which his new weighted cloths having materialized underneath. And Videl just had on her usual Oversized shirt biker shorts and gloves. She considered that normal for them, and she had eaten in the exact same outfit of just biker shorts and her sports bra before, so why would it be an issue now all of a sudden?
"Sigh, fine ill be right back." She said and went into the houae, not wanting to argue she wasn't interested in Sharpner.
"Chichi, I'm sorry, i have a change of cloths. I'll go change into it." Videl said, struggling to start to stand.
"Don't mind that dear. Your tired from training. Now eat up."
Sitting back down Videl started grabbing some of the food. it was a little challenging for both her and Sharoner with the wrist weights they had on.
"Do you guys have to wear those all the time?" Goten asked, noticing the wrist weights.
"Yeah, Gohana said we have to wear it. She didn't say when we could take them off, and I aint backing down from this." Sharpner said.
"I have to admit, it is rather nice seeing Gohana make some new friends, and letting them i to her life. Perhaps one day Sharpner you could become even stronger than my Gohana and keep her safe." Chichi tried teasing him.
"Oh, thats going to be a tall order." Sharpner said as he started eating his food, followed by everyone else.
Everyone was into their food when Gohana sat back next to Videl, with a slightly flushed face. She knew the moment her mom said she picked out cloths for her, she didn't expect a lace trim cami top with a skirt to match. Without saying a word, she just started grabbing food and shoveling into her mouth like usual.
"Ahem, Gohana we have guests, so please eat like it." Chichi scolded her daughter with a mouth already full of food.
"Yes mom." she said after swallowing her food and started eating more civilized, just faster.
"You look really cute in that Gohana." Videl complimented her.
"Really, you think so?" Gohana blushed a little bit.
"Yeah, I mean I'm not used to you in clothes
like that. But it suites you pretty good."
"Thanks." Gohana just blushed a little bit and rubber her neck a little nervously as they all kept eating.
"Alright you two, it was a pretty amazing first day or training. You both did a lot better than I thought." Gohana praised both Videl and Sharpner.
"We're done for today. i want you both to take a few days reat, but practice the Ki work every day. I'll be training you both again Wednesday after school, though not here. I'm going to take you to meet my sparring partner. Because he is going to help as well."
"Wow, you got us another teacher?" Sharpner said excitedly.
"Well, he doesn't know it yet. But yes." Gohana just laughed.
"Man, I cant wait to take a hot shower when i get home."
Videl said.
"Speaking of. obviously you both dont need to wear your weighted cloths when showering. Also sleeping. But i want you to be wearing them at all times. Unless you are Sparring or Videl you helping the police. Understood?"
"Yes!" came from them both.
Raina quickly appeared next to Gohana, having helped Chichi bringing in dishes, and now here to help Sharpner get home.
"Well, looms like your ride is here Sharpner." Gohana joked.
"Oh, I almost forgot! It might be a good idea for you guys to cut your hair a bit shorter." getting a confused look from both them as they both started staring at her own mid back length hair.
"Nee chan, do you like shorter hair on people?" Raina asked confused.
"Huh, no!" Suddenly imagining Videl and Sharpner with short hair, thinking Sharpner looked odd without his long hair.
"It's just in a fight it gives the opponent something to grab onto is all!" she said blushing a bit.
"But Gohana, your hair is longer than Sharpners, probably even mine."
"Yes but I can move faster than them, so i can avoid it. Even then my hair is hard to tug anyway." Gohana tried to reason. "Oh never mind! Lets just get you guy's home before it gets too late.
"Can't argue with that one." Sharpner laughed a little.
The flight home was mostly quiet, Videl was too tired to really talk much, and Gohana didnt have anything to bring up. Videl spent the time instead trying to focus on her Ki. She could feel Gohana's ki all around them, and having a understanding of it now, she was amazed how it felt. Even being surrounded by Gohana's, she could still feel her own. She was too tired to attempt to move it. But it would be something she could work on.
"So you are using your Ki to fly, am I right?"
"Yeah, basically you let it out under you and allow it to carry you. At least for levitating and floating. Actually moving around in the air is a little more than that though."
"I see. How long did it take you to learn to fly?"
"Um, well to be honest I learned by being thrown off a cliff." Gohana answered.
"What? If that's how you learned to fly, how on Earth did you learn to use your Ki?"
"Piccolo threw me at a mountain and said either release my energy or die."
"But, how...why"
"Before that he was actually a really angry person. But I couldn't blame him. He is the offspring of King Demon Piccolo. So he was born from that, he learned to soften up over the years though." Gohana said smiling.
Videl just looked down, not even sure what she should say, if anything, to follow up to that. So she decided to not say anything more.
Luckily for Videl, the flight home was very quick as she asked Gohana to go fast. They were at Videl's balcony within twenty minutes of leaving Gohana's house.
Landing softly, Gohana unwrapped her arms from Videl. Videl almost toppled over, nearly forgetting about the extra weight, but Gohana was able to hold her up for the split second she had no balance.
"Thanks, I'll get used to that soon, I promise." Videl said.
Opening her door, Videl entered her room, Gohana close behind her in case she stumbled. Once she was sitting on her bed, Videl pressed the button on her watch, the training weights vanished and, Videl leaned back to relax on her bed a bit.
" I can't remember ever being this tired." She said staring up at her ceiling.
"You will get used to it. Lime got pretty good at it after only about two months. But you are already at a higher starting place than she was." Gohana said standing in front if Videl.
"Do you really think we should cut our hair?"
"Um, well I do think that it would be a good idea with helping out the police." Gohana answered then tried imagining Videl again with short hair. "And to be honest I think you would pull it off pretty good."
"Well, thanks. It is a good idea though." she said sitting up rather suddenly, a bit faster than she ment to.
"So why exactly did your mom pick that outfit anyway? Seems a bit excessive."
"Oh, she just likes me to act more feminine is all." Gohana half lied.
"Well it really does suit you. You really are cute Gohana! Any guy would be lucky to have you! Your really pretty for starters. Not to mention how kind you are to others. Your the smartest person I've ever meet, and your strong and protective of those you love."
Gohana stood there blushing as she smiled a bit. She wasn't used to being praised like this. Though it felt nice this time, and it made her happy.
"Hey, your blushing! Does that mean you are thinking about that guy in class?"
"What, no. All i said was he was cute. I didn't say i liked him." Gohana blushed more.
"Yeah, well your blushing isn't helping you Gohana." Videl teased her and then yawned as she stretched.
"Seriously i don't even want to shower, i just want to strip these off and go to bed. I'm so tired!"
"Yeah, you did have a long day. I think I'll be headed out now so you can get to sleep. I still have to make a slight detour to let Vegita know he will have company on Wednesday."
"You think he will be mad?"
"Hahaha, are you kidding! He's gonna be furious, but he will get over it." Gohana said laughing and headed over to the balcony again.
"Hey Gohana!"
"Hmm? Yeah Videl?"
