This the way I have things figured out

Son, Gohan age 18

Son, Goten age 7

Briefs, Trunks age 8

Krillin, Marron age 6 (What is Krillin's last name?)

Satan, Videl age 17

(Keneda), Erasa age 17 (That's a name I made up be because I didn't know the real one.)

I figured that Bulma would be 40 years of age and Goku, and Chichi would be 36 years old.

Gohan couldn't believe how easily Videl and Erasa had tricked him into revealing that he was a friend of the Briefs family and then goad him into proving it.

"I can't believe I'm doing this." Gohan grumbled. ~Stupid Saiyan pride.~

"What's the matter, Gohan, afraid that they're not going to know who you are?" Prodded Videl as Erasa giggled the background.

"Why are you coming with us, Erasa?" Gohan said, attempting to draw some attention away from him.

"Oh, my parents are suppose meet me at Capsule Corp," Erasa said, "Can we all fit in Videl's chopper?"

"We can't use my jet-copter, there's only two seats," Videl stated. "Gohan, do you have car?"

"Yes, I do" Gohan replied. ~I wish I had bought grandpa's old clunker.~

~I bet it is some rusted out old hover car.~ Videl thought to herself as she watched as Gohan reach into his in vest pocket and pull out a capsule. With a click and a flick of his wrist the capsule exploded into a shiny, black, late model four-wheel drive Dodge Ram, Quad cab.

Videl examined the truck with its chrome brush guards and five KC lights across the top of the sports bar. Two more lights were stuck in the front brush guard, with a winch between them. All of this gave ground vehicle's aggressive appearance a massive supercharge, and to top it off was the license plate which read 'SAIYAN '.

"Wow, Gohan, you must have some money to have something like this," exclaimed Erasa.

"Yes, Gohan, that is an impressive truck," Videl agreed, just as she noticed the license plate, "Gohan, what does 'Saiyan' mean and why is the truck registered in the Gyu-Mao kingdom? You said you lived in the 439 mountain area."

 ~Eep! What should I say? When in doubt try the truth?~ "My step-mom gave the truck to me on my sixteenth birthday. I do live in the mountains, but grandfather had the truck registered in the Gyu-Mao kingdom, so that I won't have pay any taxes on it," Gohan explained. "Saiyan is my dad's family name before he was adopted by my great-grandfather, Son Gohan."

Videl looked at Erasa. She looked happy with Gohan's responses to their questions.

 "What does this symbol mean?" Videl asked, pointing at the license plate. ~Let's see if he can pull an end run on this one.~

Erasa bent over to get a better look at it. It was a crossed sword and battle-axe behind a shield; on the shield was a symbol.

"It's the royal seal of the Ox-king; only members of the royal family can have this license plate," stated Erasa.

"Huh?" choked Gohan. "How did you know that, Erasa?"

He could feel Videl's eyes bearing into him. He looked to where she was standing, but she wasn't there.

"Huh?" was all he could say as he looked around for the dark-haired beauty that been hunting him since the day he stopped the bank robbery.

"GOHAN, ARE YOU A MEMBER OF OX-KING'S FAMILY?!" screamed Videl. She had come in close while Gohan was stuck in the deer-in-the-headlights moment to give the full effect of her glare. Gohan, crumpling up in the fetal position with his hands around his ears, was not what she was expecting.

"Videl, what did I tell you about screaming around my ears? They're really sensitive!" cried Erasa, who was also on the ground with her hands around her ears.

"I'm so sorry, I forgot! I will make it up to you with some shopping tomorrow," Videl pledged as she helped her best friend up.

Erasa's eyes lit up with excitement, knowing that shopping was Videl's least favorite thing to do. "Great, I came across this outfit that would be just perfect you for!" Erasa grinned.

Gohan could not help but notice how Erasa's Ki level jumped from its already strong level to the point where it was equal to Videl's. He hadn't missed the fact that her ears were just as sensitive as his. ~Ok, Erasa doesn't have the Saiyan hair or eating habits. Unless she eats two big meals… No, she was almost as disturbed as everybody else by the amount of food I eat. Of course, she has gotten over it; the others are still shaken. Plus, she eats a bigger meal than most other girls like her.~

"Hmmm…" He scratched his head and gave a Son grin.

"What are you humming about?" Videl asked in an irritated voice.

"Huh, I was interested to know, how Erasa knew about the family crest?" wondered Gohan.

"When I was on vacation in the Gyu-Mao kingdom this summer, I went on the tour of the Ox-king's palace. The license plate was a weird fact that stuck. In fact, I think I saw this truck there." Erasa shrugged "So, Gohan, how are you related to the Ox-king?"

"My mom is his daughter," Gohan said uneasily.

"No way, he's this huge guy and you have just enough muscle to move. Are you, like, the black sheep of the family?" Videl verified. ~Don't forget, Gohan jumped thirty feet into the air. Why wouldn't Gohan have said this earlier?~

"We'd better get going so Erasa will get meet Bulma Briefs before heading off with her folks." Videl smirked.

"Yah, Videl, I guess I can be called that." Gohan said as his voice broke. He opened the passenger side doors. "Who gets which?" He asked, gesturing to the front and rear passenger seats.

"I'll take the back seat" Erasa called. As she started to climb in, she turned to Gohan and batted her eyes at him.

 "Could you give a little push?" She wiggled her backside. Gohan was stuck on Erasa's behavior, but Videl was ready to get going.

Videl grabbed Erasa's butt gave her the push she needed and slammed the second door closed. "Are we going to today?" Videl growled.

Gohan quickly snapped to and got in the vehicle, starting it and they took off down the road. The truck's imposing looks and size, helped it pass though city and on to the highway with little to no effort, with it passengers: A blissfully happy Erasa, A scowling Videl and a sweat dropping Gohan.

"Whoa, deja-vu!" exclaimed Erasa, "This like the time I was with my Aunt and Uncle, when I was little, My Aunt was mad at my uncle for something. My Aunt scowls at him the same way Videl does." Erasa looked at the two they weren't really paying attention. ~Let's see how they react to this.~

"Anyway, Mom says when they fight and make up they to have to buy a new bed because, when they make up they end up fucking like rabbits."

Both, Videl and Gohan were blushing from blunt conclusion they saw that Erasa was making.

~Kami that sounds like something Roshi would say.~ "But, Erasa, Videl and I are classmates, we are just becoming friends." Gohan pointed out.

Erasa saw the blush on faces of Videl and Gohan as they attempt to bush off her innuendo. "Some of the best married couples started out as friends. Marriage isn't based on just love, but friendship as well as truth, understanding, trust, compromise, and other things. Besides my dad said that my Aunt and Uncle started out as friends and became lovers. Uncle Trunks says that a great sex life helps a marriage."

"Yah, Gohan, the truth" Videl pointed out.

"And trust, Videl." Gohan countered. ~Uncle Trunks?~

"If your not careful your going get speeding ticket, Gohan." Videl pointed out as she notice that the truck was sprinting down the highway at 95mph.

"Not likely," Gohan replied as a set of blue lights flashed in his mirrors and a siren wailed. As Gohan pulled over and pulled out the insurance and registration papers from the glove box, and his drivers license from his wallet he could hear Videl snickering.

"What are you going to do about this, Gohan?" Videl teased

The Officer came to the window driver's window. "Ladies," He tipped his hat to Videl and Erasa  "Sir, can I see your license, registration, and proof of insurance, please?" Which where promptly handed over, as he examined the papers "Sir, where you aware of the speed you where traveling at?"

Gohan took a look at the officer's nametag "Yes, Officer Straight, I was traveling at ninety-five mph."

Erasa released her seatbelt and sat up on her knees and lean over on the back of Gohan's seat giving the officer an unrestricted view of her assets "You're cute, what your first name?" cooed Erasa as flashed her baby blues at Officer Straight.

The officer's face was now bright red "Huh, umm… Ennis, Miss." Officer Ennis Straight [1] stuttered out. Officer Straight returned the insurance papers to Gohan and then returned to his cruiser.

"Whoa he is cute" where Erasa first remarks, "Its shame you're going get ticket, Gohan."

"But I'm not going to get one, just wait and see." responded Gohan

"I think your going get one for solicitation, Erasa." Said Videl

The conversation ended when Officer Straight returned and passed back the license and registration. "Sir, you could have saved some time and informed me of your diplomatic immunity, please drive safer from now on." Officer Ennis Straight tipped his to his hat to Videl and Erasa and gave Erasa a smile that she promptly returned to Officer Straight he then returned his cruiser and pulled back into traffic.

Gohan let a small smile at the shock that was plaster on Videl's face, and then he put the truck in gear let the big V8 engine power them up to eighty mph then slipped back into traffic.

"Wow, that was so cool." Erasa said.

Videl response was in the form of grumble. "If your so smart, why you going to school with us?" She asked.

"Well My mom has started teaching my brother Goten, Trunks, and Marron. They are handful at times and now she just doesn't have the time to instruct me as well." Gohan answered.

"What's this?" Erasa pointed at the two boxes that are wrapped in a bright colorful rainbow paper with a purple ribbons tied in bows.

Gohan took a quick glance back "Oh those are Marron's gifts for her birthday. She wants dragons and transformers for her birthday, so I got a stuffed dragon and a transformer that changes from robot into a dragon."

"Cool, my mom's totally into TF's and dragons, she has a birthday in three days" Erasa said, "My mom's name is Marron as well."

"Really, Marron's in three days as well. Does your mom have light blue-gray eyes and light blue hair?" Gohan replied ~It cann't be Marron had not had a kid yet, and Erasa would be too young, If she was born after--.~ [2]

"Close, blond hair, why would why want to know that?" Question Videl.

"I was thinking of a woman I meet once when, I was younger, but she was too young now that I think of it."  Gohan answered.

 "How bizarre, who knew you could find two women with the same names, same interests, and the same birthday."  Pondered Videl, "How old is Marron going to be?"

"Thirty-six" Responded Erasa.

"I know your mom's age I meant… chibi Marron." Said Videl.

"She is going to be six." Gohan answered.

"Do you want hear this really interesting story my mom told me about a dragon that can grant any two wishes you want?" Erasa ask the now quite group.

~Dragon?~ "Sure, Erasa, why not we still have a two hour drive." Said Gohan "Videl, would you care hear this?"

Videl just grunted and Erasa took as a yes or as close as she going to get. "Ok, There is seven orange balls each the size of a orange, each with there own number of stars one to seven and their called dragon balls. The dragon balls are scattered all over the world and when the seven magic dragon balls are brought together a special chant is performed. "Eternal dragon by your name I summon you forth Shenlong." This chant releases the dragon god Shenlong to grant any two wishes that you desire."  Erasa finished

"She knows the whole story right down to the two wishes" Gohan mutter to himself

"What was that Gohan?" Videl asked

"Oh I was thinking about what, I would wish for. How about you what would you wish for Videl, Erasa? Asked Gohan.

Videl put this question to thought and replied, "I would wish to know how to do and use those tricks that the gold fighters and cell used. Ummm… I guess I would use my second to wish my mom back." Videl finished. "Do you think that the dragon god Shenlong can wish back people from the dead?" Videl asked hesitantly.

Gohan turned to Videl and gave her a smile, "I know Shenlong can bring people back." He stated without hesitance. ~I wish dad had come back.~

"Why would you want to know how to do light tricks that gold fighters used? Your dad said that they faked the fight; that it was done with mirrors and wires? Erasa asked.

"Yah, Videl, I figured that you would want to know the identity of Saiyaman." Gohan chimed in. ~Should, I be encouraging her change her wish? I don't see any threat to me Videl probably thinks that the dragon balls are story.~

"I know what my dad says, but Saiyaman uses those same tricks. I have gotten close enough to know that no wires or jet packs are involved in flying. I have had several chances to search him; there are no machines under that green tunic he wears to make stronger either. Besides, I want to be able to beat at him at his level." Videl responded happy in her wishes.

"Good for you, Videl." Gohan agreed ~If she did make those wishes she would know the truth about her dad, and my secrets wouldn't last a minute after that.~

"What about you Gohan?" Erasa asked, "What would you wish for?"

"He would wish for refrigerator full of food that never runs out of food." Quipped Videl.

"That hurts" Gohan said with a twinge of pain. "Thou, that wouldn't be bad idea, I think I will use that one, Thanks. Hum… I think I would wish for the ability of Instant Transmission, That way I wouldn't be late for school and I would have more time." ~Besides that would seriously piss off Vegeta.~ Gohan grinned, The twinkle of evil was not missed by the passengers of the vehicle.

"I know what I would wish for." Erasa replied, "I would wish for a lifetime supply of fresh strawberries.[3] My second wish is to meet my grandparents. I never got meet them, My Uncle described them to me once."

"Tell me how did your Uncle describe them?" asked Gohan.

"Well Ok, I will start with my Mom's Dad, He was said to have trained to be a Shaolin monk as kid, but he switch he switch to a different master where he meet my other granddad. According to my uncle he was a short man." Erasa said, "Grand mom on my Mom's side was a real beauty, He says I got her eyes and hair color. Emotionally She was a block of ice but she could be just as loving as mother cat to her kittens." Erasa recalled, "Dad's side of the family was really out there. My other granddad I don't really know, I all know he used trained with my other granddad, But My uncle would always get so emotional that he couldn't talk about him. His wife was the greatest cook in the entire world and she was once a princess, she took those skills and ruled her family with great courage and compassion." Erasa's eyes glazed over probably dreaming of what her grandparents where like.

Gohan thoughts quickly over whelmed him ~Kami, Dende I wonder if you heard this.~

Gohan decided that a little extra speed would not hurt as he add power to engine making the trucks' speedometer crept though one hundred and ten mph.

Videl's mind was still on Erasa's Aunt and Uncle ~They sound like they could be Gohan and me in some alternative universe, He doesn't even think of me like that. He did show some interest in me, oh how I wish he would show some more. Maybe if I went after him after all I have never been one to let tradition get in my way. There's only one thing standing in my way, dad and his stupid rule. "If boy a can beat me in a fight then maybe you can go out with him." He didn't boast about knowing the Briefs or his royal heritage it had be dragged out of him, but that hasn't been proved either way. He wasn't impressed with my dad, Gohan almost laughed at his name. Gohan is so close to perfect.~

*****

18 had a long day of shopping and preparing for Marron's birthday; she had found her energy levels to weak to fly home. Being one of the three Z senshi with the most pride, she had no intention of calling for help. Marron had detected Gohan coming before 18 had, as she tracked Gohan's energy she decide to seek help from Gohan. Knowing that Gohan wouldn't seek to use this against her later. She dugout cell phone and recalled Gohan's cell number, and listened to the phone dial the number.

"Hello this Son, Gohan how may I help you?" answered Gohan.

"Gohan, it's 18, I'm with Marron at the Open market…" 18 paused.

"What's the matter?" Gohan questioned "Are you all right, do you require assistance?" ~That sounds diplomatic and it shouldn't rub her pride the wrong way.~ though Gohan

"Would you drop us off at Capsule Corps please?" 18 responded quietly, almost a whisper of the powerful android that she was.

"It would be my honor, my friend." Gohan answered with an upbeat energy

"Thank you, Gohan" replied 18. As she putt away the phone she walked over to a bench with Marron. As she held her child in her arms, she ponders why she was suffering from a depleted Ki.

*****

As Gohan terminated the link, He looked to Videl who was looking back at him not with a scowl or anger, but curiosity. Gohan could not help but notice how really gorgeous she looked. ~Maybe Erasa may have something there about us, but Videl doesn't feel the same way about me in fact, she would hate me if she knew the truth. ~

"Videl, Erasa, one my friends is experiencing trouble and has requested assistance. Videl, could slide to the back when we arrive to pick them up, Erasa, could you cover the presents for me please? You can use that wind breaker in back." Said Gohan.

Gohan was having trouble locking onto 18's faint Ki, But Marron's was quite focus in fifteen minutes they had arrived at the market and was close to 18 and Marron. As he pulled the truck in a parking spot, he spotted 18 and Marron sitting on a bench, the toe headed little girl made a mad dash for the truck.

"Where are they, did they say where they would be?" Erasa asked, "Gohan, this place is huge?"

"Don't worry it causes wrinkles." Videl stated, "Besides Gohan wouldn't be that numb as not to get a location to meet up."

"Ah… thanks I think?" Gohan said, "Besides they found us." As opened his door and a blonde little girl piled in to his lap.

"Hi Uncle Gohan!" The chibi said

"Hello Marron, did you have fun shopping?" asked Gohan

"I have more fun going shopping with Grampa Roshi, I like to watch him get beat up." Responded Marron.

"Ah ok, I will be right back." Gohan said. ~Grampa Roshi?!?~  He thought as he went to collect the packages.

*****

18 was glad that Gohan had not taken his time about coming for her. She had taken the time and had used it well by refreshing Marron about the rules that apply, when around people that are not part of their group of friends and family. As Marron ran over to the big black truck, 18 turned to a vender selling baked goods and purchased a giant cookie. As 18 went to collect the packages that where left at the bench, Gohan had beat her to it.

 Gohan had already collect their packages and was turning to returning to the Dodge when he spoke up.

"Did you remind Marron of the rules?" Query Gohan.

"I did, and this should provided additional protection from a accidental slip up." Responded 18, referring to the giant cookie in her hand. "I'm certain your passengers would not take the fact that I was part of..."

Gohan placed his hand on her shoulder stopped her from continuing a dark memory that both wish that never happen. "Something's are best left unsaid." Gohan said.

18 just smiled back. 

*****

Erasa was victim to the chibi's cuteness and Videl had to admit that the girl was cute. The girl looked a little familiar to her somehow. But the woman at Gohan's side was consuming most of her brain. ~Who is she? I have seen her some where before.~

"Videl, You coming in back with us?" Erasa asked, Snapping Videl out of brain racking.

"Yup." Videl responded, as She crawled over the center console as she got settled into the rear seat.

Marron's mind had not let go of the bounty on Gohan's girlfriend's head and the first to identify her would receive a generous reward from Chichi. Marron had decided that this could be her chance. Deciding Ki would be best bet, She looked the two girls [4] Ki over carefully their Ki was about the same, but the dark hair girl's Ki was a bit more powerful.

"What's your name?" Marron asked, as she tugged on the front of Videl's shirt since the blonde didn't have much of shirt to tug on.

"My name is Videl Satan" Answered Videl "and this is my friend Erasa Keneda."

"Are you doing a 'slap and tickle' with Uncle Gohan?" Marron asked with unending nerve.

Videl couldn't feel any blood in her body, all of it was in her face so much so she couldn't hear because of the rush of blood. "NO!" Videl choked out, "Who taught you that word?" Videl wished, she could shrivel up and die, she had never been asked that before.

Marron was a little less than pleased with the response. "I hear Grandpa Roshi ask the hotties that, maybe that's why mom calls him that pervert." Marron replied, "I like his turtle."

The front door's opened letting in Gohan and 18, 18 looked in the back to see what the laughter was about to. To face a blonde girl who was blue in the face with laughter, and a raven-haired girl whose face was so red that 18 had to touch the girl's face to be sure she wasn't bleeding and in the middle was Marron.

"Marron what did you say?" 18 asked.

"I asked her," As she pointed to the red face girl "if she does a 'slap and tickle' with uncle Gohan." Marron answered with endless nerve.

18 looked at Gohan whose face was just red as the girl the back then at the cookie "I guess this' is a little late" ~Roshi you dirty old man!~ 18 started to get the truck when she realized Gohan had seized up on Marron's answer. With a sigh she passed the cookie to Marron, and slugged Gohan in the head causing him to snap out of the trance.

"Are you going to be alright?" 18 asked

"Huh… Yes let's get going." Gohan said as settled him self behind the wheel, just as red in the face as the girl behind him.

*****

Erasa and Videl stared up at the huge yellow dome. Their minds boggled on how really big the place truly is. As the group unloaded from the truck, Gohan was torpedoed in the stomach by two blurs. Videl sprinted around the front of the truck to see two boys. One had lavender hair dark blue athletic pants and shirt. The other was wearing an orange gi with a blue shirt, and big black spikes of hair shooting off in all directions. Videl had decided that Gohan and this boy where brothers when.

"Ni-Chan!" The boy shouted, "Are these your girlfriends?" He asked, as he pointed to Videl and Erasa.

"Goten, Trunks, get off me." Gohan commanded, "They are not my girlfriends."

 "Don't, we wish." Erasa said as she pinched the boy's cheek and swept Goten into a crushing hug, as Videl's face turn pink in a heartbeat.

"I thought I was your friend, Gohan?" Videl glared at him.

As Erasa moved closer, "Yah, Gohan, I thought I was your friend as well." Erasa gave him the sad puppy dog eyes. "I'm a girl too, cann't you tell?" Erasa said as she jutted out her chest to enhance her bust line, with Goten to the side struggling to escape Erasa's grip.

While Gohan was stumbling all over himself at Erasa latest tactic, Trunks decide that the pink-faced frump was his best bet at getting the bounty from Chichi. ~ I guess, I could kidnap her, and leave her to Chichi, Goten would help with out question.~

Videl had decided that Gohan had stared enough at Erasa's mounds. Videl was feeling left out, she just hated the feeling. ~ Why, would I want some guy drooling over my chest like that?~ Videl then realized, she was focusing on Gohan for more than the secrets he kept, in a release of anger she picked up a rock and fired it at Gohan's head. [5]

 The rock never made its final destination it had been intercepted. A man not much taller than Videl, herself with hair that stood up like jet black flames was suddenly there he was holding the rock in his hand. Videl could see the muscles in the guy's arm shift, as the rock was crush to a fine powder.

"How dare you!"  The man bellowed, "You pithily weak human, you shall die." as he charged for a final flash.

**Clang! ** [6]

 "VEGETA, WILL DO NO SUCH THING, VEGETA, YOU KNOW AS WELL AS I THAT GOHAN WOULD NEVER HAVE FELT THAT ROCK. YOU JUST WANTED AN EXCUSE TO KILL!!"  The voice of a woman screeched.

Videl had covered her ears instinctively even with her ears covered the woman's voice reverberated though her skull. She looked to Gohan and Erasa, both where on the ground with their hands over their ears as well as the two boys. The woman who was introduce as 18 was standing there, like she was standing in line at the bank, and her daughter Marron was behind her mother's leg watching with great interest.

"Onna, I do as I please, I am the pri—" Vegeta started as he was so rudely interrupted by a frying pan to the head.

"My name is BULMA, not Onna. You live in my house you train in my GR, you eat my food and you sleep in my bed.  Just for this you will be sleeping on the couch and will be eating quarter meals for a week. If you damage the GR it will be for month for each hour spent fixing it."  Bulma commanded as she switched personalities. "Hi, Gohan, how are you? We have not seen you around here for a while. Chichi will be so proud that you have two beautiful young ladies for your friends, which of these beauties is your girlfriend?"

Videl could not believe it, this is Bulma Briefs.  She looked like she was in her late twenties early thirties [7] she was wearing a red jumper. The dress was cut low on top and the hem was cut high. She was hugging Gohan and talking to him if she was an aunt or older sister.

"So, Gohan, what are your friend's names?" Bulma asked as she released Gohan from the hug. "Which have you asked to marry you?" she asked as she thought about the reward Chichi had going.

"I think it's that one, she makes me think of Gohan's mom." Trunks offered up as pointed to the dark hair girl.

"I haven't asked anyone to marry me." Said Gohan, "These are my friends from school, the one holding Goten is Erasa, and this is Videl." as he pointed to the raven-hair girl.

"Well, it's nice to meet you both." Bulma responded slightly disappointed, "Would you two like a tour of capsule Corp?" Bulma asked as she dragged the two girls behind her.

As Gohan went to join his friends, when a hand reached out and stopped him. "And where the hell do you think your going, Eldest spawn of Kakarrot?" Vegeta demand.

"Gee, Vegeta, I thought I was going to go with my friends to what Bulma has cooked up now" Gohan replied.

"No way!" Vegeta smirked, "First, Your going to give me a fight, then you can go mate with that dark haired oona." Proclaimed Vegeta.

"What!" Gohan yelped, "I don't want to mate with her, she is too much like my mom." ~With the attitude of a certain prince of all Saiyans.~ though Gohan.

"Please, I can smell your scent all over the girl."  Said Vegeta.

"We fight for only for an hour and half." Gohan demanded as ignored the last remark.

"It is not going to take that long to defeat you, First brat of Kakarott." Replied an ego driven Prince, as Gohan headed for the changing room.

*****

"This the first floor garden where my Mom and Dad keep their collection of stray dogs, cats, and Dinosaurs. There is Slag now." Bulma said without missing beat as she walked up to the triceratops and rubbed his beak. "Over there is Snarl and Sludge." Bulma pointed to the stegosaur and brontosaur. "And up there is Swoop." Bulma pointed to the third floor over and there sat a flying dinosaur. "We have Grimlock the T-Rex, on loan to The Philadelphia Zoo. [8,9] My Mom and Dad are over checking on the rabbits." Bulma said as she pointed out the pair. "He design the first capsules, of course they where the size of coffee thermos bottles then."  As Bulma lead them out of the garden. "Since, you two are such good friends of Gohan's, I will let you see my private lab."

"Well, We are not really great friends," Erasa confessed, "We ticked Gohan in to telling us about you and that his grandfather is the Ok-king." She continued.

"It was nice of you to admit the truth." Bulma said with a smile.

"Can we still see your private lab?" Erasa asked giving Bulma her best puppy dog eyes.

Bulma looked at the blonde ~Kami, that feels so familiar.~ she thought as she felt her resistance melt away. "Sure, why not it cann't hurt" Bulma said in defeat.

Videl had seen Erasa pull the puppy eyes trick on more than one occasion and it almost never failed to work, Gohan seem to be immune to the effect. ~I could never break the hold that Erasa's puppy dog eyes had on me.~ Videl thought, as she remember all the times Erasa use them on her.

*** Author's notes ***

[1] Officer Ennis Straight does anybody remember him? He was the deputy sheriff of Hazard County on the show Dukes of Hazard. (I use to watch the show, when I was kid. Talk about dating myself. Starts singing the opening music.)

[2] I am referring to the Marron that Krillin was dating during the Garlic Jr. saga.

[3] This was Bulma's original wish before she decided to wish for a boyfriend instead.

[4] A/N: I'm not pig I think a little girl would look at young women more as girls than women. Marron is the daughter of two fighters, and lives with a letch, but a fighter nonetheless so she has followed down the same path. Third, She is the daughter of android so she should be smarter than the average bear.

[5] Did, Videl play for the Orange Star school baseball team? Someone let me know.

[6] We all know that sound don't we.

[7] If I did my math right Bulma is forty years young. And I think that Vegeta would be close to the same.

[8] I don't know if anyone noticed, but those are the names of the Autobot team, the Dinobots. I know the real name should be diplodocus instead of brontosaur. Slag is one of my favorite transformers.

[9] Here is a neat fact, The Philadelphia Zoo was America's first zoo chartered in 1859. http://www.phillyzoo.org/at/history.asp
