Ch.1

New Beginnings


It was a lovely day in Mount Paozu. The sun shined bright on the beautiful area as a light breeze swept through the land. The surrounding forest was quiet and pleasant while animals searched for food and rested, enjoying the peace. That changed, however, when a pint-sized Saiyan awoke from his sleep.

"Goooohann!" A young voice cried out leaping onto a bed.

The person he pounced on was his older brother, Gohan, and he was not happy to be woken up so abruptly.

"Ahh... what the... Goten!? What are you doing?" Gohan shouted at his brother after he realized what had happened. This had to be the absolute worst time for him to be awakened like this. He'd spent all night pacing around his room, worrying about today that he couldn't get any sleep and boy was that showing.

Looking up at his brother with almost identical eyes he explained himself. "Oh, I was just waking you up. I wanted to make this morning special since today was the day." Goten spoke with his head hanging down.

Gohan's features softened as he looked at his younger brother. "Awe, don't worry about it squirt," Gohan said as he ruffled Goten's hair. "I'm gonna be visiting all the time, and I'll make sure to call and check up on you guys too."

Goten kept his head down as tears welled in his es. "I-I know that, but it won't be the same!" Goten cried as he hugged his brother.

Gohan understood how his sibling was feeling. Just last week his Mom revealed that she was sending him to a boarding school, Satan academy to be specific. The revelation hit Gohan with a wave of different emotions. He was upset that he was leaving his family as well as nervous because he would be moving in with kids his own age. What truly surprised him though was his feeling of excitement. The fact that he'd be on his own making independent decisions was something he rarely did, and it intrigued him.

Turning his attention back to his brother Gohan patted his tiny back, attempting to soothe him. "Look squirt I get it, I'm gonna miss you too, but we've gotta toughin' up. I know it sucks now, but I promise I'm gonna come back and play with you all the time you won't even notice I'm gone."

Goten looked up at him, tears still in his eyes."Y-You, promise?"

"Pinky promise." The two saiyans wrapped their pinkies around each other in unison. Suddenly, a wide grin spread across Goten's face causing Gohan to grin as well. Something about the kid made you feel happy whenever he was smiling; it reminded him of their father.

Rubbing Goten's hair again Gohan spoke, "Now go get dressed then head downstairs for breakfast okay? I can already smell Mom's cooking."

Goten nodded his head and somersaulted off the bed. "I sure will. See yah downstairs Gohan!" The teen saiyan chuckled at his younger brothers antics. He was definitely the spitting image of their father.

Letting out a loud yawn Gohan got out of his bed. After showering and brushing his teeth, the saiyan returned to his room to get dressed. While putting on his shirt, he examined the large scar on his shoulder that ran down to his left forearm. Taking a deep breath, he shook his head. He'd have to find something to cover that up.

Finally finishing his morning routine, Gohan grabbed his suitcase, and he proceeded towards the kitchen. Sporting a white dress shirt with black jeans, the teen entered the kitchen and placed his bag at the end of the stairs. Chi Chi was still finishing up breakfast for her sons when Gohan came in.

"Morning everyone!" Gohan announced as he walked over to his mother and kissed her on the cheek. Goten was sitting down already devouring everything in sight, and he was soon joined by Gohan who followed suit.

The two saiyans made quick work of the food even as Chi Chi piled more on their plates. Chi Chi shook her head slightly at the boys.

"I swear you two have no limit."

"If you think we're bad mommy you should see Trunks and Mr. Vegeta," Goten exclaimed while finishing up his breakfast.

Chi Chi kissed her son's head as she responded. "Oh, I've seen how bad Trunks and Vegeta are, especially when combined with you two." Chi Chi let out a tired chuckle as she continued on. "Speaking of them I've got to go check and see if Bulma's ready to have us over."

The dark-haired mother proceeded to pick up the house phone and dial Bulma's number. After confirming with Bulma that they could head over, which ended with a loud explosion and Bulma yelling, Gohan decided to speak up.

"It was kind of Bulma to invite us over before I left," Gohan commented has he downed his last pancake.

"Yes, it was, mostly because this all is so last minute." Chi Chi sighed as she moved towards Gohan and placed a hand on his shoulder. "I'm sorry for not telling you sooner sweety I just couldn't get the words out. Oh, I'm going to miss my baby so much!" The mother cried as she nudged her face against Gohan's.

"Mooom, stop your so embarrassing," Gohan whined as his mother continuously kissed his cheek, a light blush on his face.

Goten began to snicker until Chi Chi attached herself to him giving him the same treatment as Gohan. " Mooomy stooop!"

Chi Chi obliged has the Son family laughed together. "Okay, that's enough horsing around, we have to get to Bulma's."

Gohan nodded at his mother. "Alright, I'll grab my suitcase you guys should call nimbus." Chi Chi nodded as she led her youngest son to call for the magical cloud.

After grabbing his luggage, approximately three suitcases, Gohan took one final look at his home. "I'm really gonna miss this place." How could he not? This had been his home since birth; he'd had so many memories right between these walls, both good and bad. But this wasn't the past, new memories were ready to be made right outside these walls, and Gohan slowly began to come to terms with that.

"Gohan hurry up we're going to be late!" Chi Chi yelled scarring Gohan a bit.

"Coming Mom!" The teen assured her as he made his way out of the house with a sad smile on his face.

Catching up with his mom and brother the three prepared to take off. "Are you sure have everything Gohan? You didn't leave any of your books, right?"

While scratching the back of his head and giving a goofy grin, Gohan replied. "I checked Mom I have everything."

"Good because if you leave anything I'm not bringing it to you," Chi Chi threatened slightly.

"Geesh I got this Mom don't worry. Besides, I could always get Piccolo or someone to rush anything over."

"I guess your right, look at me worrying over nothing," Chi Chi stated as she ran her hand over the fluffy cloud she was sitting on. "You know I'm surprised I can still ride this thing. Kami the things your Father did, I'm shocked it still considers me pure."

Gohan suddenly felt his breakfast about to come up, and he began to gag. "C-Can we please just go now?"

"Of course we can. Come on Nimbus take us to capsule corp," Chi Chi ordered. The bright cloud obeyed, and their family set off with Gohan flying next to Chi Chi and Goten, trying to keep himself from throwing up.

"Uh, Mommy what did Daddy do not to make you pure?"Goten asked innocently. Chi Chi reddened at her son's question and began to cough slightly.

"You'll understand when you're older so don't dwell on it."

Goten folded his arms and pouted. He hated when adults gave him that answer.

About 20 minutes later the Son family arrived and landed in the backyard of Capsule Corp. Over the years the company had expanded creating three new domes and adding in multiple dorms for business associates who were attending meetings.

Sensing they had arrived Trunks ran out of Capsule Corp to meet the Son's. "Aunt Chi Chi!" Trunks yelled as he floated in the air and hugged the mother.

"Hello, Trunks it's good to see you," Chi Chi spoke with a smile on her face. "Is your mother inside?"

"Yeah she's fighting with Dad, but she said you guys could come in." The Ox princess sighed. Of course, those two were at it again. Hopping off the cloud, Chi Chi hurried inside to hopefully break up their argument.

"So Gohan, Mom said you're going to school near here."

"Yeah, I'll be on the outskirts of Satan City," Gohan explained to him. Since the Briefs were so close with his family, Gohan had essentially seen Trunks grow up. He was, in many regards, a second brother.

"That sounds like so much fun!" Trunks exclaimed.

"Hopefully it will be," Gohan stated wistfully. Trunks turned to his best friend and began talking to him.

"Hey, Goten you wanna' come inside? I just got this new toy rocket, and you've gotta see it!" Trunks boasted to his younger friend.

"Definitely!" Goten answered as he ran inside with Trunks. "See yah later Gohan!"

Gohan waved at him as he entered the building, sighing as soon as he was out of sight. This was going to be a long day.

After entering the building, Gohan followed the voices of his mother and Bulma into the kitchen. There the two mothers were chatting until they noticed his presence. Bulma dropped her glass of wine on the counter and rushed over to Gohan, pulling him into a tight hug.

"Oh Kami, I can't believe you're going away to school. It feels like just yesterday when I first saw your chubby cheeks at Roshi's house." Bulma said as she squeezed his cheeks.

Gohan flushed at his godmother. "Bulma..."

"Oh I think I'm gonna cry," Bulma said as her eyes began to water. She'd watched Gohan grow from a child to a fine young man, in many ways Gohan was her son. To see him go hit Bulma hard but she knew she had to stay strong.

Backing away from Gohan and wiping a few tears Bulma spoke. "Don't worry about me I'm upset for no reason. Now you should head to the gravity room, Vegeta's waiting for you."

Gohan nodded his head, but before he left the saiyan hugged Bulma again. "Thanks, for everything." Pulling away Bulma smiled as Gohan jogged off to go meet with Vegeta.

Bulma turned back to her best friend and continued their conversation. "Honestly Chi I don't know how you're taking this so well."

"I don't know either. I guess I've held onto Gohan for so long and kept him in our little bubble that I feel like it's time to let him go. Unfortunately, that doesn't stop me from getting upset at the fact he's leaving." Chi Chi spoke. She began to feel a tear escape her eyes just talking about her son leaving.

"Awe Chi. You know you're a great mother, even though you can be batshit crazy," Bulma said with a small grin.

"Oh, I'm crazy? Says the one that was 'fighting' on the couch with Vegeta," Chi Chi fired back bringing a hint of red to Bulma's cheeks.

"Well, technically I didn't lie, we were fighting. He even bit me and everything." The dark-haired mother laughed at her friends' antics.

"Exactly my point you are crazy." Bulma started to giggle as well causing Chi Chi to laugh even louder.

"Whatever you say Chi I'm only stating the facts. Anyway, I've set up a few movies in the living room, and I've even got a bottle of wine to help us relax before Gohan leaves."

Nodding her head, Chi Chi accepted the bluenettes offer. "Sure I could use a bit of fun." The two women went off towards the living room to enjoy their afternoon.

Gravity Chamber

"Hey, Vegeta I heard you were looking for me?" Gohan asked as he entered the room. Vegeta stood in the middle of the room his arms folded with a scowl on his face. You see over the past few years Vegeta had been making tremendous strides in his goal to become an Ascended Super Saiyan. So, you could imagine his reaction when it was revealed that his best training partner would be going off to school.

"Yes, I wanted to spar with you before you left."

"Wow Vegeta. It sounds like you're gonna miss me huh?" Gohan teased the prince.

"Never. Don't get the wrong idea brat the only reason I haven't killed you yet is that you make for a decent spar." Vegeta asserted although Gohan didn't buy it for a second.

"Sure you haven't Vegeta. Anything else you wanna get out before we start?" Gohan said while stretching his whole body.

"Just the fact that I expect us to train at least once a month."

Thinking about it for a moment Gohan replied. "That sounds reasonable I'll have to see how that coincides with my schedule though." Feeling ready to begin Gohan took off his shirt and pants revealing his orange gi underneath.

"If that's all then how about we get right into the fight," Gohan said as he assumed his Kame style battle stance.

"Now your talking like a Saiyan," Vegeta grinned as he turned Super Saiyan and attacked Gohan.

After hours of fighting the two Saiyans laid on the floor with bruises and blood scattered across their bodies.

"Whew, that was a great fight. You know I'm gonna miss sparring with you all the time Vegeta." Gohan admitted.

"Of course you will. It's an honor for you to be fighting against the prince of all Saiyans."

Gohan chuckled at Vegeta as he stared at the ceiling. "I'm really nervous about going to this boarding school ya know? I understand it's kind of weird for me to just bring that up out of nowhere but it's been on my mind for a while. I'm just scared everything's going to go wrong."

Taking in his words, Vegeta stood up and sighed. "Relax brat you're overthinking it. Even though half of you is a weak human your also a Saiyan. A race of warriors with bravery and might that is unmatched. Don't let this school scare you, attack it head on as a Saiyan should."

Gohan took a moment to soak in Vegeta's words. His speech filled Gohan with a new burst of confidence and strength. He could do this, he could make a new path for himself, and his nerves weren't going to stop him.

"Thank's Vegeta I appreciate that." Vegeta folded his arms and began to exit the room.

"Shower and change brat, I believe it's time for you to leave." Gohan sighed and grabbed his clothes. The teen made his way towards the room Bulma had kept for whenever he stayed over.

After taking a quick shower, Gohan went out towards the living room. As he entered Gohan noticed his family and the Briefs waiting for him at the door.

Gohan watched the group in front of him with a sad smile on his lips. This was it, the moment he'd been worried about had finally come.

The young Saiyan walked over to Bulma and hugged her. "I'm gonna miss you Bulma."

Holding back tears the bluenette patted Gohan on the back. "Naturally," She said with a small chuckle. "Oh, I almost forgot I have a present for you," Bulma spoke as she pulled out a white card with the Capsule Corp logo on it.

"This card has about 500,000 Zeni on it, so this should help you with any expenses along the way." Gohan's eyes widened instantly, and Chi Chi put her hands over her mouth.

"B-Bulma I can't accept this I-."

"Nonsense! You're like my son, and if it weren't for you, we'd all be dead anyway. This is the least I could do." Gohan beamed at his godmother and pulled her into a fierce hug.

"You're the best Bulma."

"Obviously," Bulma said with a small grin on her face. "Take care kid."

Backing away from Bulma, Gohan knelt down and focused on the two younger Saiyans. While wiping away his tears Goten spoke first.

"Remember big brother. You promised you'd come back and play with us so you'd better!" Nodding Trunks went along with his friend.

"Yeah, Dad said Saiyans never break a promise so if you do Goten and I are gonna beat you up" Gohan gave a sad chuckle as he placed his hands on their shoulders.

"I swear I won't break my promise. I'd never wanna' face your guy's wrath."

Gohan rose from the ground and turned towards Vegeta. The two Saiyans nodded their heads, not needing to speak to describe how they felt.

Finally, Gohan looked upon his mother who could barely keep her tears at bay. Chi Chi hugged her son holding him close to her as tears seeped from her eyes.

"I can't believe my boy is finally growing up." The mother spoke as she placed a hand on his face. A tear slipped from Gohan's eye because of the sadness his mother displayed. Even though she could be controlling and overbearing Chi Chi was still his mother, and he wouldn't want anyone else to be.

"I know. I can't believe this is all happening so fast." With a proud grin plastered on her face, Chi Chi reassured her son.

"Don't forget Gohan. You are capable of great things and your father, and I are so proud of what you have and will accomplish."

"Thanks, Mom, that means the world to me." The mother and son shared one last hug, relishing the moment before they separated.

Wiping a tear from her eye, Chi Chi attempted to focus on what she had to do. "Now, grab your stuff and get going. I don't want you to miss any more class then you already have."

Gohan gave her a confident nod and grabbed his luggage. The young Saiyan walked towards the door, but before walking out, he turned towards his family. "Thank you guys for everything. I'll see you all soon!" With that Gohan walked out of Capsule Corp.

The protector of earth looked to the skies and took a deep breath. He was ready for this new challenge; he was ready to make new connections. At least he hoped he was.

After flying through the air and following a GPS Bulma invented, Gohan found himself hovering over his new school. The area he was observing though was much more than what he had been expecting. The campus was huge and looked like a miniature city filled with stores and what seemed to be restaurants.

After assessing the area, Gohan saw no one, so he inconspicuously landed on the stoned walkway in front of him. Looking up the teen spotted what he assumed was the main building. The structure was massive spanning across a wide area. It was beige and appeared to be carved out of stone.

Suddenly feeling nervous about entering the school Gohan stood unmoving. Could he really do this? Would he actually fit in? There was no time to think about these questions though. He had to do this, and he wasn't going to back down.

Shaking his nervousness off Gohan entered the building. The main hall had marble floors with offices labeled 'front desk.' Approaching the red-headed woman in front, Gohan began to converse with her.

"Hi! Welcome to Satan academy previously known as Orange Star academy, how may I help you?"

"H-Hi, I'm new here, and I'm supposed to be enrolling today. My name is Son Gohan." The young woman typed a few things on her computer before her face lit up.

"Ah yes, Son Gohan. You'll be boarding in dorm seventy-eight, but it looks like you have a class in session so you'll probably want to head there first." Gohan took this by surprise. He didn't think he'd actually have class; the saiyan assumed he'd try and settle in his room before meeting anyone.

The young redhead handed Gohan his key card as he asked her a question. "Oh okay, do you know where that's located at?" After peering at the screen for a moment, the young lady replied.

"Yes, it'll be in room one hundred and twelve and its-."

"Don't worry about that Miss Cherri I'll be sure to show him to where to go," A voice interrupted. When Gohan turned, he saw a woman in her mid 40's with fair skin and dark purple hair in a grey pantsuit.

Standing up frantically Cherri addressed the woman. "Principle Violet it's a pleasure to see you." The older woman smiled at her staff's nervousness.

"And you as well. Now I believe I have a student who needs help attending their class, don't I? Your Son Gohan correct?"

Gohan looked surprised that the principle new who he was. "Y-Yes I am."

"Great. Cherri, could you send someone to deliver Mr. Son's luggage to his room?"

"Yes, I will ma'am." Principal Violet turned back to Gohan and she spoke to him.

"Now then how about we head to your class. I believe Mr. Toriyama is giving an exciting lecture in history," Principle Violet said with a bit of sarcasm.

The two set off in pursuit of the class. While walking Principle Violet began to speak.

"So Gohan are you excited to be partaking in our science and engineering programs?" Again, Gohan was shocked that the principle new so much information about him.

"Excited and nervous really. I'm surprised you know a lot about me." While nearing their destination the principal responded.

"I make it my obligation to know every student who attends Satan academy. Especially the smart ones." Gohan gave a sheepish grin while scratching the back of his head.

After a few more moments Violet stopped walking and stood outside of class one hundred and twelve. "Well, this is your stop. Just knock on the door, and Mr. Toryima will let you in."

"Thank you, Principal Violet, for showing me around."

"Your welcome Mr. Son. Now get into class and enjoy your time here at Satan academy." The older woman smiled and walked away from Gohan to attend to her other duties.

Gohan gazed at the mahogany door in front of him, taking a deep breath to try and calm his nerves. This was the moment of truth was ahead, and there was truly no going back. After centering himself and his ki, Gohan knocked on the door.

In a matter of seconds, an older man with grey hair and tan skin opened the door. "Hello, is there something you need my boy?" The man questioned, his green eyes etched on Gohan.

"Oh, I-I just enrolled here today, and I was told to come to this class," Gohan answered shyly.

Taking a moment to think the older gentlemen finally remembered. "Ah yes, you must be Son Gohan. My name is Mr. Toriyama, how about you come in and we'll get you introduced to the class shall we?" Gohan nodded nervously as Mr. Toriyama guided him into the classroom.

Upon entering the whole class immediately shifted their eyes to Gohan, a pair of bright blue eyes especially trained on him. Mr. Toriyama stopped in the middle of the classroom to address his students.

On the top row of the class sat three distinct students who were interested in their new classmate.

One of them began to nudge her friend with a sly smirk on her face. "See I told you the rumors were right Videl we are getting a new boy."

The blonde boy who sat next to them decided to chime in. "Yeah, I guess you were right Erasa. Too bad he looks like a complete nerd," The young man said with a small chuckle.

Erasa huffed as she replied to her friend. "Shut up Sharpner; I happen to think he's kind of cute."

Sharpner snickered again. "I mean if you're into Brains and no brawn, sure."

Videl rolled her eyes at her friends' bickering, but she couldn't help but agree with both of them. The new guy did look like he spent the majority of his time reading books but on the other hand, he was very handsome in her eyes.

Heat suddenly rose to Videl's cheeks as she realized what she was thinking. What the hell did she just think Videl Satan didn't find boys cute. She was a fighter and boys were just a needless distraction.

The dark haired girl immediately tried to shake those thoughts out of her head, but her eyes remained transfixed on the new guy. Erasa noticed Videl staring, and she began to nudge Sharpners' elbow.

"Check it out. It looks like our Videl's got her eyes on the new kid," Erasa said with a giggle at the end. Sharpner smirked at Erasa's comment.

"Wow, Videl who knew you had a thing for brains?" The two blondes started to laugh as Videl's face became even more flushed.

"Will you two shut up! And I'm not staring at him. I'm just observing. Something's... off about him," Videl responded. Technically she wasn't lying about the last part. Videl felt that he seemed different, it felt like he was too pure in a sense.

Erasa and Sharpner were not buying it, however. "Sure Videl, whatever you say," Erasa spoke as she began to laugh again. "Ooh look. I think he's gonna speak."

"Well, class it seems our new student I'd been telling about has finally arrived. Please, introduce yourself."

Gohan gulped as he stepped towards the class. "Hi everyone my names Son Gohan and it's nice to meet you all." Gohan mentally facepalmed at his introduction. Way to sound like a total nerd, he thought.

"Gohan here scored a one hundred on his entrance exam; I'm sure you all could learn something from him." The teen sighed and shook his head. Mr. Toriyama was not helping his case.

The words 'nerd' and 'geek' were thrown around at this revelation. Videl, on the other hand, smiled a bit to her self. There weren't many smart kids in her class and maybe it'd be refreshing to have one.

"Now son, we only have about twenty minutes left in the class. You can pick a seat for the remainder of the block, and if you don't like it, you can always switch it tomorrow," Mr. Toriyama instructed.

"Thank you, sir," Gohan replied as he searched the crowd for a place to sit.

Videl looked to her left and remembered that there was a seat open. The only reason it wasn't occupied was that Videl would threaten to kick the person out of a window if they chose to sit there.

Thinking for a moment Videl's eyes suddenly widened. The young girl turned to her best friend who had an evil grin on her face.

"Erasa, don't you dare-."

"Yoohoo! New boy there's a seat open right here!" Erasa yelled while she pointed at the open seat next to Videl.

The class gasped at Erasa's proposition. Was she trying to kill the new kid on his first day?

Gohan smiled and began to make his way up to the top row. Videl grunted and kicked her friend under the table.

"Ow, what was that for!?" Erasa complained.

"That was for you being annoying." Videl wasn't naive she knew what Erasa's intentions were by inviting him up here and she was not interested. At least, she hoped she wasn't.

"I'm not, it's called being nice," Erasa replied firmly.

Their conversation was halted though as Gohan arrived at the top. Looking at Gohan standing in front of her Videl instantly flushed and turned her head in hopes of him not seeing her blush.

"Thanks a lot for allowing me to sit here," Gohan said cheerfully. He was happy that someone actually gave him the time of day.

"No problem love. My names Erasa and the neanderthal over here is Sharpner." Erasa said causing Sharpner to defend himself.

"Hey, I'm actually a very intelligent person for your information." Erasa rolled her eyes at the blonde teen.

"Uh-huh, didn't you lock yourself out of your dorm today?" Sharpner reddened at Erasa's question.

"Oh come on those key cards they give us are so small people are bound to lose them. Plus it's been a whole four days since I lost the last one.

Erasa rolled her eyes again at her friend and continued her conversation with Gohan. "As I was saying this is our lovely Videl. Although you can probably tell she's very rude at the moment," Erasa accused making Videl glare at her.

"Oh well it's nice to meet you all," Gohan said with a grin etched across his lips.

"So brains what brings you to Satan academy?" Sharpner asked, curious why someone like him decided to go here instead of already being in college.

"Oh, I don't really know exactly. I think my Mom wanted me to meet kids my own age so she thought it'd be best to send me here."

"Awe, were you not having a good time at your previous school," Erasa questioned thoughtfully.

"Actually this is my first time in any school." Erasa and Sharpner gasped at Gohan's statement. Even Videl was surprised about it too, and there were very few things that actually surprised her.

"Wow, being here must be a huge culture shock for you!" Erasa exclaimed.

Gohan sheepishly rubbed the back of his neck and replied. "Yeah, it's pretty different. I've never been around so many people before so this all new to me."

Videl gazed at Gohan, and even though she remained silent, she absorbed every bit of information about him. For some reason, her brain made it her mission to learn everything about the mystery that was Son Gohan.

Suddenly, a loud and fake cough interrupted their conversation. Mr. Toriyama stood in front staring at the group of teens. "I know you are all eager to converse with Mr. Son but if you could keep in your excitement until after the bell rings that would be grand."

"Yes, sir." All four teens responded quickly hoping not to get in trouble.

After class resumed, Gohan began to take notes on what was on the board. However, he found it increasingly difficult as he noticed himself glancing at the girl beside him.

To Gohan, Videl was truly an enigma. From the moment he walked in the saiyan wondered how a girl so pretty could keep her face stuck in a scowl. He thought if maybe she took the time to smile more her beauty would double in an instant.

Gohan blushed at his thoughts and tried to focus on his work. He couldn't be concentrated on girls too much he was here to get an education, plus his mom would kill him. But maybe she wouldn't be that upset if he took an interest in some extracurricular activities.

Before he could finish his thoughts, the bell rang, and students grabbed their things and began to leave. Just as Gohan grabbed his bag, Mr. Toriyama called out.

"Gohan and Videl I'd like to see you both." The two teens in question froze up, and heat rose to their cheeks. Gohan's palms became a bit sweaty, and Videl fidgeted with her ponytail and tried to hide her blush.

Gohan and Videl both walked down the stairs and met Mr. Toriyama at his desk. As Sharpner and Erasa were walking out, they purposefully snickered loudly behind Videl. Erasa even went as far as to make kissy faces while she exited the room.

Videl glared daggers at her friends before they walked out and disappeared down the hallway. "So Mr. Toriyama what did you wanna see us for?" Videl questioned. Gohan simply nodded beside her, too nervous to speak.

"Ah yes I wanted to because Mr. Son here needs someone to show him around campus. Given how knowledgeable you are I'd thought you'd make the perfect tour guide for him Miss Videl."

Gohan instantly stiffened at Mr. Toriyama's proposition. Of course, he was happy to have someone show him the ropes and help him learn his way, but he wasn't expecting anyone to do that for him, let alone Videl. But the biggest question mark was how Videl would react and if she would accept at all.

Videl stood stunned like the boy next to her and began to stutter her way through an answer. "O-Oh well, I-I mean I-."

"Of course, I could always find someone else if you're not up for it?" Toriyama proposed causing Gohan to direct his attention to Videl.

"N-No it's fine I'll look after him." Videl mentally began to freak out. Looking at him and calling him cute was one thing but to voluntarily hang out with him was another. No, she began to convince herself, this wasn't about hanging out with the new boy this was strictly to observe him. The only reason she agreed was so that she could get some more information on him, nothing more nothing less.

"Great, thank you very much, Videl. And I will see you tomorrow Mr. Son, enjoy your first day," Mr. Toriyama spoke cheerfully.

"Thank you, sir," Gohan responded as he and Videl exited the room.

The two teens began to walk through the hallways. Neither of them knew what to say so they both stayed silent.

Finally finding the right words, Videl spoke up. "So uh you excited to be here?" Videl mentally cringed at her opening line. Was that really the best she could do?

"Oh definitely still pretty nervous though." Gohan awkwardly responded.

"That's very understandable. I remember my first day of freshman year. I could barely sit still I was shaking so much. I ended up running back to my dorm and hiding there for the day." Videl and Gohan shared a laugh at her embarrassing story.

"I really doubt that. You seem so cool around here I wouldn't expect you to get nervous." Videl blushed a bit at his small compliment.

"Thanks but I definitely did. Don't worry about it though you'll fit in fine here." Gohan looked at Videl and couldn't help but smile.

"Thanks, I hope I will."

The two continued to walk until Videl thought about another question to ask. "So have you settled into your room yet?"

"No, I haven't gotten the chance to. I'm pretty sure someone on staff took my luggage there while I went to class."

"Oh, then I guess we'll start there. Do you know your room number?" Videl questioned as Gohan fumbled with his things, looking for his room number.

"Uh yeah, it's... room seventy-eight." Videl looked shocked for a moment confusing Gohan. "W-What is that bad?"

"No, it's just that your roommate is going to be Sharpner because I'm sure that's his dorm." Gohan's eyes widened. He was going to have a roommate! If there was one thing he wasn't expecting was to be living in the same room with a stranger.

Noticing the shock on his face, Videl tried to comfort him. "Don't worry about it the rooms here are huge so it won't be that bad." Gohan gulped and nodded his head, still nervous about what lied ahead.

Videl grinned at his shyness. Even though she'd fought against it she couldn't help but think how he was acting was adorable. "Come on let's go I'll show you to your room."

After walking for about ten minutes, they arrived at Gohan's door.

"And here we are room seventy-eight. I'm actually down the hall at eighty-two with Erasa if you ever need anything." Videl assured Gohan as she messed with her ponytail to try and keep herself from blushing.

"Thanks, I'll make sure to remember that," Gohan replied with a grin on his face.

The two stayed like that for a moment until Gohan realized he was staring. The young saiyan became nervous again and began to fumble with his key card.

"I-I guess I'll go in now," Gohan said with a nervous laugh while Videl looked at him with a small smile.

Upon entering the room Gohan noticed that the room was large with mahogany flooring and white walls. It was set with a small kitchen and a decent sized living room with two couches a flat screen tv. There were also two doors that led to separate bedrooms and a bathroom with a shower in the back.

Taking in the sight Gohan's eyes lit up with excitement. It was like staying in one of Bulma's suites but all the time.

"You like it?" Videl asked as she watched him tour the place.

"Yeah, this is amazing! I can't believe I'm going to be living here."

Videl stood in the doorway with a smirk on her pale lips. "That's good to hear I-," Videl started but was interrupted by an alert on her phone.

After taking the phone out of her pocket she saw it was a message from Erasa that read, "Come by Todoroki's Sushi after you're done making out with Gohan k?"

Videl gripped her phone in anger at her friend. She was so going to beat her up for her teasing. While she texted Erasa back Gohan opened up his suitcase that was left in front of his room.

The first thing he found was a black box with his name on it. Upon opening it Gohan found a golden chain attached to the four-star dragon ball. The teen Saiyan felt his eyes tear up as he read the note inside. "I know your father and the rest of the group would want you to look after this. With love Mom."

Gohan smiled wildly as he placed the necklace over his head. You see about two years after the Cell games Piccolo thought it'd be a good idea to round up all the dragon balls and give them to the group to protect. Krillin and Eighteen were given the first star, Piccolo the second, Vegeta the third, Gohan the fourth, Tien the fifth, Yamcha the sixth, and the seventh was to be hidden in honor of Goku.

After clipping the necklace on Gohan walked back out of his room to find Videl still in the doorway on her phone.

Looking up at him Videl noticed his necklace and stared at it curiously. "Nice necklace, what is it?"

"Oh, it's a family heirloom my mom gave to me. She must've hidden it in my suitcase when I wasn't looking."

"Wow that's very thoughtful of her," Videl commented. The teen girl felt a little bit of envy at his mothers' generosity.

"So you heading out?" Gohan questioned curiously as Videl looked back down at her phone. Videl thought for a moment about what Erasa asked her and looked up at the boy in front of her.

"Um yeah, I was. But how about you come with me?" Videl asked with rosy cheeks. Gohan began to get nervous again as his heart pounded furiously against his chest.

"W-With you? Are... you sure?" The demi-Saiyan asked nervously.

"Yeah, I mean I was already going to meet up with Sharpner and Erasa so it'd make sense to bring you along. But that's only if you want too; I don't wanna pressure you or anything." Videl said hurriedly as her body began to heat up. This only for observation, this is only for observation, this is only for observation.' Videl repeated over and over again in her head.

"N-No I'd love to go." Gohan finally responded with a smile.

Feeling an overwhelming sense of relief Videl let out a breath she'd been holding in. "Cool, they should be waiting for us so if you wanna' leave now..."

Nodding his head Gohan replied. "Yeah, just show me where I'm going and I'll follow." Videl hid her smile as she guided Gohan to their destination.

"Alright, just try and keep up," Videl smirked as they set off on their walk.

"I sure will," Gohan replied with a smirk of his own. The young Saiyan couldn't help but be excited. This was his new life and the possibilities were endless. And as he laid his eyes on Videl his smirk grew even wider. Maybe he'd get a chance to test out one of these possibilities sooner than he thought.
