Demeter Fenir here with the sequel to Snowbound! This story will taking place during Gohan and Videl's summer break and what a break it will be! So, without further delay!

Gohan smiled as he leaned against the boat's hand railing and stared into the ocean. The hot summer sun was beating on his back and all his friends and family were laughing as they played games on the deck or tanned in the sun like he was.

It was summer break, and Videl had decided to take her yachet into the ocean and bring everyone along for the ride. It was nice, even though it was designed for them to have a bit of ' alone time', but Goten seemed to be everywhere at once.

" Gohan, are you going to stand there all day or what?"

Gohan turned to see Videl, dressed in a simple bikini and her hands on her hips. She had her hair in a pony tail and sandals on her feet.

" I was just thinking about how nice all this is." He smiled as he walked to her with nothing more then his trunks on and gave her a hug and a small peck on the cheek. " You look great by the way."

" You too. Now, remove your tail from my thigh before you get caught." She teased, then laughed as Gohan blushed and quickly uncurled his tail from her. " Come on, let's join the others."

" If you say so." Gohan let her go and followed behind her, though if only to catch a glimpse of her ass.

" There you two are! We were about to start worrying in a minute." Bulma laughed as the teenagers blushed. " You've guys been dating for like what? Six or seven months now?"

" Yeah. About that time. I was never one to keep track of those kinds of things." Videl giggled as she watched Gohan drag over two more chairs so they could sit and talk. She gave Gohan a small peck on the cheek before she sat down beside Chichi and Gohan.

" I wasn't that type of girl either." Bulma said through her giggles. All the girls were giggling and Gohan was just looking out to sea. The waters were calm and soothing, though he still had an odd feeling in the pit of his stomach.

A hard smack to his chest broke him of his gaze. " Ow!" Gohan yelped as he rubbed the assaulted area.

" Are you feeling okay? You look like something's wrong." Videl said as she cracked open a soda she was given.

" I'm fine." Gohan smiled as he took her drink and stole a gulp.

" Hey! That was mine!" Videl giggled as Gohan kept the beverage away from her. He was a tease when he wanted to be.

" Was it now? I don't see your name on it." He chuckled back to her.

" Oh ha ha, Gohan." She smirked as she twisted his left nipple, making him surrender the drink.

" That wasn't nice!" Gohan yelped as he rubbed the soreness away. " You could have just said 'please'."

" I'll remember that next time." Videl just smirked as she and the girls laughed.

They spent hours talking and playing games outside in the sun. It was nice to get time to relax from all the hassles of modern day life in the city or from the business of saving the world. Even Vegeta was chuckling and chasing his son around the entire yachet like a normal father would. Everyone had a story to tell about one time or another and there was always a punch line at the end.

Night had come, making the air cold and everyone shiver. The moon was almost full, so lighting wasn't a problem; however, the sleepy children were.

" Come on you two! It's time for bed!" Goku growled as he tried to catch them, but missed yet again.

" We're not sleepy!" Goten whined as he yawned.

" Yeah, so we aren't going to bed yet. We're going to stay up all night with you guys!" Trunks declared as he puffed out his small chest in defiance.

" And what if we go to bed." Bulma asked with a smirk on her face.

" Then we'd have to go to bed." Goten stated as he gave the question some thought. " Are you guys tired too?"

Chichi and Bulma chuckled, then faked a deep yawn. " I could go to sleep right here!" Chichi giggled as her youngest walked up to her and grabbed her hand.

" I'll take you to bed, Momma." Goten said. He went to go led the way when Goku grabbed him. " Dad!"

" That's my job, Little Man!" Goku laughed as Goten giggled, but tried to wiggle free.

" I think it's time we all headed for bed away." Vegeta said as he got up from his chair and went inside.

" So? Where's Gohan going to sleep?" Bulma teased, which caused the teenager to blush madly.

" Not with Videl I hope." Chichi growled as she glared at her son. " It's okay to kiss, but that's as far as you two are going for now."

This made both of them gagged and quickly hide their faces before anyone could see the embarrassment that clearly shone through.

" I'm just going to go to my room." Gohan mumbled as he quickly gave Videl a peck on the cheek and ran off.

" Now look what you did, Chi. You scared him off." Goku sighed as he placed his youngest on the ground and watched him ran after his brother.

" It's so easy to do that now." Chichi mused. " Not like when he was little, you'd have to threaten him to go to bed or his room."

" Really?" Videl asked, now more interested in the information than the blush on her face.

" Yeah. He was a wild little guy. He made Goten look tame!" Goku laughed as he egged everyone inside and to their rooms. " Night everyone!"

Videl waved to him as she thought about what he had said. Could Gohan really been that wild? And if so...what happened? She shook the thought away as she crawled into bed and laid her head on the pillow.

" I'll ask him in the morning." she whispered to herself before she drifted to sleep.

" Turn star port! Try to avoid those waves!"

Videl groaned as the yelling woke her from a rather pleasant dream she was in. She sat up in her bed and rubbed her eyes. She was too tired for this! She was going to give that captain a piece of her mind and damn anyone who was going to try and stop her from doing so!

She changed out of her night clothes and into some jeans and one of Gohan's shirts she had kept, then pulled on her tennis shoes and was storming her way up to the deck.

Harsh winds greeted her before anything else, chilling her to a point that no amount of anger would get her blood boiling again. She opened her eyes; which she held shut do to the extreme wind, to see a raging sea and waves that looked large enough to tip them over without a second thought.

She pushed against the wind and made her way up to the captain, who was shouting orders and had a death grip on the steering wheel as he tried to avoid most of the wave's harsh blows.

" What's going on, captain?" Videl asked, having to yell so he could hear her.

" We've been sucked up in a maelstrom! Never seen the like! Hang on ta somethin' Lass!" The captain shouted back as he turned the boat hard to face an on coming wave.

By this time, everyone was awake and coming up to the deck to see what was wrong.

" Where did this storm come from!" Bulma yelled as she looked up toward the sky to see where it might be moving to.

" I don't know! The weather channel said it was going to be clear all this week!" Goku said as he hugged Chichi to him.

Gohan stared at the sky for a long moment, then shook his head and moved to the captain. He spoke to him in a low tone, and the only words that anyone could hear, they couldn't understand.

" What are you two talking about?" Videl yelled over the new gust of wind.

" We all need to get back inside and hold on to anything that floats. Tie yourselves down if you need to." Gohan ordered. When everyone just stared at him, he snarled. " NOW! This isn't a game!"

Everyone jumped to a start, except for Videl. She only stared at him in disbelief. He went to go force her back into the cabin when the captain gave a shout to hold on. They both grabbed the hand railing; bracing themselves for impact.

" What did you say to him?" Videl asked again, hoping for an answer this time.

" Does it really matter?" Gohan asked back, hoping that she would just drop it.

" It does!" She barked back.

" Fine! I'll tell you when we're not clinging to the boat in a middle of a maelstrom!" He remarked.

Before Videl could say anything back to him, a massive wave; one that dwarfed the boat to a size of a pea, towered over them before any of them could react. It came crashing down and all gohan could do was quickly grab on to his love and hold her to his chest as he turned his back on the wave, to shield her from the force that it was about to bring down upon them.

It collapsed on everything, them, the boat, even on itself before it washed them away and into the swirling sea below them. Gohan tried to swim, but he was being spun by the turning of the water to were he didn't know up from down. He tried to open his eyes, but the salt burned to were he couldn't. All he could do, was hold on to Videl and hold his breath.
