Author's Note: So, this is a story for SweetestIrony's Gohan/Videl Week 3.0. The starter sentence for today was "With the planet in jeopardy one again...".

The Great Saiyaman Breakup

With the planet in jeopardy once again, it was time for the Special Saiyaman Spin Attack!

"The Great Saiayaman!" Gohan shouted, throwing his hands in the air and getting down on one knee.

"And Saiyaman 2!" Videl shouted, standing on her left foot and bending over so the antenna of her helmet touched the antenna of Gohan's helmet. It was a pose that required delicate positioning, and...

Smash!

Losing her balance, Videl crashed into Gohan and the two of them went tumbling to the ground in a heap.

"Videl!" Gohan protested. "You screwed up the pose!"

"Well, you were too far away!" Videl said.

"I was not!" Gohan said. "The Great Saiyaman never messes up his cool poses! It's part of being a superhero!"

"Rrrrrr! It's not a cool pose! It's stupid!"

Gohan gasped. Videl thought one of his poses was stupid?

Meanwhile, the criminal mastermind that Videl and Gohan were supposed to stop had finished uploading his deadly computer virus to the Internet Headquarters, crashing 90% of the websites around the world in under five minutes.

"Ha ha ha!" the evil genius cried. "You weren't able to stop me, Saiya-losers! With the Internet destroyed, I will be able to—"

"You're crazy!" Gohan said. "That helmet looks great on me!"

"And what kind of name for a superhero is Saiyaman 2?" Videl asked. "That's the stupidest, most uncreative—"

"It's the greatest superhero name ever!"

"No, it's the dumbest—!"

The criminal mastermind could see that no one was paying attention to him, so he decided to leave. It was the easiest escape from the law that a supervillain had ever committed.

Meanwhile, the Great Saiyaman Fight was getting worse.

"Why is it that you get to decide everything?!"

"That's not true! We're supposed to be a team! It's not my fault that you're not a team player!"

"Fine! I quit!!!" Videl shouted, ripping off her helmet and throwing it to the ground. "I never liked being Saiyaman 2 anyway! Things were better back when I fought crime alone!"

"Fine! I don't need you!" Gohan shouted. "The Great Saiyaman doesn't need a partner! He's good enough on his own!"

Videl roared in anger. Her energy was rising so high that, for a second, Gohan could have sworn he saw a flicker of yellow in her hair.

"FINE!" Videl said. "Do what you want! I don't care!"

She ripped the door off its hinges and stormed out of the room.

"And by the way...I'm breaking up with you!" Videl shouted at Gohan, as an afterthought.

At the Son house that night, things were chaotic.

"My previous baby!" Chi-Chi cried. "The true love of his life has cruelly abandoned him!"

"Does this mean Videl isn't going to come over to play anymore?" Goten asked.

"Hey, Chi-Chi, do you think you could heat up these mashed potatoes?" Goku asked. "They're a little cold."

"Heat them up yourself, Goku!" Chi-Chi snapped. "Can't you see our son is going through a major crisis?"

"I'm fine," Gohan lied. "There's nothing to worry about."

"Oh my poor, precious baby!" Chi-Chi cried.

The mood was a lot more cheerful at Videl's house.

"Good for you, Videl!" Hercule said, patting his daughter on the back when he heard the news. "I never liked that little punk anyway!"

"Thanks, Dad," Videl said. "Ever since I first met Saiyaman, I knew I didn't like him."

"Yeah! Just because he saved your life a couple times doesn't make him any less of a wimp!" Hercule said proudly. "I told you all along that dating boys is nothing but trouble! You should have listened to your old man! Why, I've never gone on a date in my life!"

"What about you and mom?" Videl asked. "Are you saying you two got married before going out with each other?"

"Uh...well, you see...me and you mom...those weren't exactly dates, you see, they were more like..."

"Cool!" Videl said. "So I can get married to someone right now!"

"VIDEL!!! I FORBID IT!!! YOU ARE NOT GETTING MARRIED WITHOUT—!"

It took Hercule a few moments to realize his daughter was joking.

"You broke up with Gohan?" Erasa gasped.

"Uh huh!" Videl said. "Finally, that bossy, know-it-all is out of my life!"

"But you two made such a cute couple!" Erasa said. "You've been going out for, like, a year now! Plus, you fight crime together!"

"Not anymore," Videl said. "From now on, this girl is flying solo!"

"If anyone can do it, it's you," Erasa agreed. She always said that Videl was the strongest, most confident girl she knew. "How does Gohan feel about the breakup?"

"I don't know, and I don't care," Videl said.

Erasa was concerned about Gohan becoming single again—and not just because she secretly thought he was cute, but because she was his friend—so when he came into the classroom looking really sad, she got worried.

"Gohan looks really bummed," she said.

Videl didn't say anything. She just looked intently at her book, instead of looking at Gohan.

Gohan took his seat next to Videl. "Videl, look, about yesterday..." he said. "I think we need to talk..."

"No," Videl said.

"We were both really upset, and I apologize for—"

"Can it, Gohan," Videl said.

"Please! If you don't listen to me, how will you know—?"

"Stop bugging me, or I'll ask the teacher to move you somewhere else," Videl said.

Erasa and Sharpener left the classroom together.

"Poor Gohan..." Erasa said. "He seems really upset."

"Personally, I think it's great!" Sharpener said. "Now that Videl has finally dumped nerd boy, she's free to go out with me!"

"But Gohan is our friend!" Erasa said. "We have to help him somehow!"

"Well, okay," Sharpener said.

He thought about it for a moment.

"I've got it!" Sharpener said. "Since he doesn't have a girlfriend anymore, why don't you go out with him?"

"Me?"

"You know, help him find a new girlfriend! Build up his self-confidence!" Sharpener said.

"Aha!" Erasa said. "That means we have to get Gohan and Videl back together!"

"Wait, what?"

"That's going to be tough, but I think we can do it!" Erasa said.

"What?" Sharpened asked. "That's the complete opposite of what I said!"

"Of course!" Erasa said. "You're wrong about everything, so whenever someone asks your advice, she should do the exact opposite of what you say. It's the Sharpener Principle!"

"You're crazy!" Sharpener said. "I'm never wrong about anything!"

"See?" Erasa said. "You're wrong about that."

"No, I'm not! You're making things up!"

"You're wrong about that, too! See, I proved it!"

"ARRRGH!"

So Erasa walked to Gohan's locker to talk to him, because both of them had third period off. When she got close enough, she saw he was crying.

"Gohan!" Erasa said. "What's wrong?"

"N-nothing," Gohan said.

"It's Videl, isn't it?" Erasa asked. "I heard you two broke up."

Gohan nodded. "I-I-I miss her, and I'm really sorry about what happened, but she won't even listen to me! What can I do?"

"Don't worry, Gohan," Erasa said. "I'm a genius at this relationship stuff. I can help you get back together with her."

Author's Note: So Erasa has agreed to help Gohan get Videl back! And I guess Sharpener is a reluctant helper. Will this be good news or bad news for our hero?
