I hope you guys enjoy this. I just had an idea to run with this. Anyone who has a problem with it can I just remind ya'll ITS FICTIONAL!

If I wanna write I'm Gonna write! Just go with it! Its not like it'll be made into a movie or anything (Hint hint to any directors who may come across this? ;) Anyway the point is this is my story, I had this idea and I'm running with it. So humour me!

But before we do that. I wanna say, for those of you have heard the tragic News Of Liam Paynes tragic passing last week, I just want all of you to know, I feel it too. I actually had a good cry when I found out. My teenage years are all of listening to 1D and he will be sorely missed! He was a talented musician and I will miss him everyday. I just wanted to say that. RIP Liam you were loved by so many X x x

Okay Okay! Now we are gonna continue! ;)

Chapter 4 – Where are they?

'Hi you have reached Chichi's voicemail, sorry I can't take your call right now. Please leave a message and I'll get back to you. *Beep*'

'Mom its me again, look this is the 5th voicemail I have left you, you said you'd call me back, I know im not your parent and you're a grown woman you can fend for yourself but it's just, it's been 3 days and you haven't called. Can you just get back to me please? I love you' Gohan hung up the phone and huffed in frustration as Videl looked at him

'Still nothing?' She asked

'Nada! I don't get it'

'Well maybe they have no signal at this place?'

'Your kidding right? I heard Bulma bragging about literally everything, right down to the wifi. No this doesn't feel right to me' Gohan huffed.

'What do you mean?'

'Well, I know mom can handle herself but I don't know I just feel like something has just…gone wrong'

'Look Gohan maybe your jumping to conclusions a little. If you want to, why don't you go to Kame house and see if Krillin has spoken to 18. If he has, he can ask her to put chichi through to you, maybe your mom lost her phone?' Videl suggested. Gohan raised an eyebrow. It was possible. Maybe that is what happened, but he wasn't sure. He knew if that had happened. His mother would have found a way to inform him, she always did in the past and he didn't ask. It didn't feel right. Gohan was always so protective of his mother, but not as protective as his father was of her.

'Okay Maybe you're right. I'll go over to Kame House. I'll see you Later' Gohan nodded and took off into the sky and flew over to Kame house. He then thought back to when he was a boy, and how his mother would fuss over him when he was going away for a field trip…

Flashback

'You have your flashlight?' She asked

'Yes'

'Your notes?'

'Yes'

'Your special pillow?'

'Mom!'

'What you know you don't sleep without it'

'Yes it's here'

'And you got all the numbers if you want to come home, Mine, your grandpa's, Bulma's Krillin's…..'

'Mom! Please I'm only gonna be gone for a week'

'I know but you've never done this before'

'Mom, I went on a spaceship to another planet! I think I can handle a bus to go on a school field trip' he joked as she softly chuckled as she smiled at him

'Regardless, this is still a big day, your first field trip. You know I always thought this would be scary but I suppose you going to namek was much worse'

'You sure you'll be okay with me going? I know Goten has been a little fussy lately' Gohan said

'He's just teething, don't worry about him, you just have a good time. But remember to call me when you arrive okay? You promise?' Chichi instructed as Gohan gave her a hug

'I promise' he smiled

Flashback over

'I guess I know how she felt now.' Gohan said as he soared across the oceans finally seeing the little white house in the distance, he landed on the beach and knocked on the door, for it to be opened by a friendly familiar face

'Oh hey Gohan, how are you?'

'Hey master Roshi! Is Krillin around?' Gohan asked

'Oh sure he's in the living room, come on in kiddo' he said as he greeted Marron who was playing with her dolls, he headed to the living room and saw Krillin there meditating with his legs crossed on the floor, with a hard concentrated look on his face, deep in thought.

'Krillin?' Gohan called out but heard Krillin grunt as his eyes remained closed 'KRILLIN!' Gohan called out louder snapping the earth fighter out of his trance

'Oh Gohan! I wasn't expecting you today?'

'Yeah listen I was just wondering, have you heard from 18 since she arrived at the island?' Gohan asked as Krillin shook his head

'No, she said she'd send a message when they arrived but nothing. I was about to ask you if your mom had said anything?'

'No! Mom was supposed to call but I have left her messages, I know I should worry too much but I kinda get this feeling like…..

'Something's wrong?' Krillin asked as Gohan nodded

'Exactly!' Krillin said as a knock on the door disturbed their conversation, Roshi answered the door and in walked another familiar face.

'Tien!' Gohan and Krillen greeted as Tien bowed his head

'Hey guys! I was just stopping by uhh….. look it may be nothing but I don't suppose any of the girls…'

'Made contact?' Krillin asked as Tien nodded

'No Tien they haven't, I've been trying to get through to mum but not getting an answer'

'Same with 18. I got nothing!'

'Launch said she was supposed to call and let me know when they arrived but… I got nothing either.'

'Okay this can't be a coincidence'

'So what? You think something has happened?'

'Wait! What about that hotel they booked! Maybe the receptionist can tell us if the girls checked in or not!?' Krillin said as the Gohan and Tien looked to one another and shrugged.

'It's worth a shot I guess' Gohan said as Krillin grabbed his cell-phone and dialled the hotel number and called up, waiting for an answer till finally….

'Good afternoon thank you for calling the Sands Hotel & spa, how may I assist you today?' the lady on the other line called

'Yeah hi I was just wondering if you could tell us if some people have checked in safely at the hotel?' Krillin asked

'Of course sir, do you have their confirmation numbers?'

'Ummm no but I do have the names they'd be under'

'Of course what would the name be?'

Bulma Briefs?' Krillin answered as the receptionist typed in the name

'I'm sorry sir but I don't have that name in house' she said

'Well is she still an expected arrival?'

'Let me check' she said as she looked it up and on her reservations system 'Hmmmm I do not have a reservation or ever had for a Bulma briefs. Do you possibly know any other name it could be under sir?' she asked as Krillin thought

'Okay well what the guy she was expecting to meet, I think it was uhhhh…..'

'Doctor M.T?' Gohan answered

'Right! Doctor M.T!' Krillin said as the receptionist looked it up but…..'

'No I'm sorry that reservation does not exist, or ever existed. Perhaps you may have the wrong hotel?' she asked as Krillin knew he hadn't, he knew where 18 was going! So what the hell was going on!

'Right thanks' Krillin hung up the phone and looked to the other two concerned 'The booking never existed, neither does this doctor. I think someone set Bulma up!'

'Why would they do that?' Tien asked

'I don't know, but there is no existing booking and now we can't get through to them! You don't think that's a coincidence!?'

'Krillin's right! I Feel this whole thing was a setup! And now we can't get through to Bulma, Launch, 18 or mum! I think something has happened!'

'But why them!? Who would want to harm them?'

'I don't know but I don't like this one bit! And I'm gonna find them!'

'Gohan I have been trying to sense out 18's Ki since yesterday and I have felt all over the world for it! Including The others! But I can't sense anything!'

'So what should we do!? Give up?!'

'No! but we are gonna need some help, We need to Get Goku and Vegeta back to earth!'

That's it for now! I know this was short but I assure you the next chapter will be much longer. Hope you all enjoyed! Lots of love! X x
