Chapter 4
A-n still sorry for the long wait someone pointed this out to me as a huge mistake I had made. Gohan's arm is not completely useless it is like there but permeant nerve damage has happened and that would take even a saiyan a long time to heal. The only reason no one else as tried to help Gohan heal is secret but there is a good reason. Well on with the chapter. This chapter is dedicated to Catherine who pointed out my huge boo-boo. Thanks a lot!

ENJOY!!! ^_^
Gohan walked down the hall at a semi quick speed. The hall was filled with bright posters hanging on the wall. The floors were tiled in a blue color. The walls were mostly white where there wasn't a poster. All the doors were different colors for different subjects. He leaned against his locker and was aware that Videl was looking over at him.

"See ya found your way rookie." She said as she pulled more books into her backpack.

"You seem disappointed Videl, I told you all I have to do is trace your ki." Videl now looked at Gohan and spoke again.

"What is this ki stuff you keep talking about?" Gohan smirked his odd smirk and decided to show her. He held up a small ball of ki towards Videl to keep others from seeing.
"This is just a small ki ball, it's going to pop the lock on my locker open." Gohan shoved the little ball of light up into the key opening and the lock popped open, after emitting a small putt sound. Gohan allowed the door to swing open and began to empty his backpack so it had room for his new books he was going to get.

"Gohan I want you to meet my friends." Videl said in a determined voice. Both stood and put their backpacks on their shoulders. Gohan raised an eyebrow but followed Videl anyway. They walked down a few hallways until they met up with two blondes who were talking and laughing.

"Are you two done flirting yet? When you are I want you to meet a friend." Videl said to the set of blondes. They both gave her a glare then the girl broke into a smile.

"Erasera, Sharpener this is Gohan, he's new here." Videl said curtly. Gohan looked at the two people both had blonde hair. The girl was dressed in a light blue jean pair of shorts and a lime green shirt. The boy was dressed in a tight muscle shirt with a pair of baggy jeans. Erasera and Sharpener started at Videl in shock. She wasn't a person to make friends easily, especially since the Cell games. But here she was with a new friend, a guy none the less who Erasera thought was cute.

"Pencil, Pencil Sharpener..." Sharpener offered his hand to Gohan. Gohan took it with his bad arm and shook slowly. Lately Gohan had noticed he could do small tasks with his right arm, it meant that his saiyan healing was kicking in. Sharpener was amazed by Gohan's strong grip especially after seeing all the scars on his arm. Erasera's talkative side took over her and she was unable to control it any longer.

"Any friend of Videl's is a friend of ours. I'm Erasera." She babbled on for a few moments before Videl covered her mouth with her hand.

"Let’s go or we'll miss home room." Videl said slowly as she released Erasera's mouth. Eraser grinned and pulled Videl ahead of the boys a bit. She spoke hardly above whisper to Videl.

"Ohhh, Videl you picked up a hottie." Videl gave Erasera a confused look.

"What do you mean?"

"Gohan, geez you act blonder then me sometimes. You never make friends with guys quickly except Sharpener. So what's different about Gohan?" Erasera gave a quick look over her shoulder to the new boy.

"I don't know Erasera, it just sorta clicked and I knew he was a good person. Does that make any sense?" Erasera giggled then spoke.

"Yeah Videl, it sounds like you a crush on him." When she ended her sentence Erasera faced Videl with a huge smile knowing what was coming next.

"WHAT?!?" Videl yelled a little bit loud, making Gohan's sensitive hearing ring.

"But... I just met him." Videl said now looking over her shoulder at the saiyan.

"Love works in strange ways Videl so deal with it." Gohan had heard every word up until Videl's reason to be his friend. Finally the four walked into home room and took their seats near the back and smiled at Gohan sympathetically. Gohan himself walked up to the front of the classroom to find out where he should sit.

"Class we have a new student, his name is Gohan Son. Please make him feel welcome.” The teacher addressed to the class then turned towards the back of the room.

“Videl he’s in all of your classes so please assist him today in finding his way around. Now Gohan if you will tell us a little about yourself." Gohan looked at Mr. Note, then at the class, and then back again.

"Tell'em what, there isn't much to tell." Gohan replied to Mr. Note in an annoyed voice.

"Things like where you live, about your family, your hobbies something special thing about you." Gohan raised his eyebrow in question and the teacher waved him on.

"This is quite pointless sir,” Gohan commented before he finally gave in.
“I live in the 439 mountain area. I live with my mom and my little brother and sister, Goten and Golynn, who happen to be twins. My hobby is sparring and fighting, actually fighting is my life." He looked around for a seat as he finished talking and was about to go sit in one when Mr. Note interrupted him.
"Gohan you didn't say anything about your father, what about him?" Videl cringed as the teacher brought up that subject. Gohan frowned, looking up at the ceiling and began to speak in a small voice.
"My...my Dad died four and half months ago, giving his life for something he strongly believed in and loved. Happy now that you brought it up?" Gohan turned and glared at Mr. Note as he said the last part.
"Sorry Gohan I didn't know... uh, ok please take a seat." Gohan glared at the teacher while he walked up to the last row and sat between Videl and Sharpener. Erasera was on the other side of Videl. Videl informed Gohan that the first class was art.
The first period bell rang and home room emptied quickly. Gohan tried to remember all the halls he walked through as Videl took him to art. Inside the room there were eight tables with five to six chairs each. The walls were decorated with past art projects. In the middle of the art room was a big desk like thing. It had three sinks on either side, a built in trash can and lots of storage space. Ms. Jones, the art teacher, walked into the room and yet again everyone but Gohan sat in a seat.
"You must be the new student Go.. Gohun." Gohan cringed as she pronounced his name wrong.
"Gohan, it's Gohan." He said in annoyed voice.
"Fine take a seat near umm... Videl." Gohan almost smiled, but he didn't know why. Videl and Erasera sat on one side while Sharpener and Gohan sat on the other. As everyone else got out their unfinished art work Ms. Jones brought Gohan a big piece of sketching paper. “I’d like you to fill this with some original art. People, places or things that are special to you. Are you sure your able to draw, your student info says you have no use in your right arm?" Half the class looked up not noticing Gohan's injured arm until now.
"Yes, I can draw I’m not crippled." Gohan shot at the teacher like she was a little five year old. Which in Gohan's opinion she was acting like a small child so she deserved to be talked to as such.
One by one the kids went back to work, and Gohan decided his own. In the center he drew Shenron, the dragon of the mystical dragonballs. Gohan thought for a few moments before beginning to sketch in the Z-warriors. He also drew their families, everyone was around the dragonballs. His family was the last to be drawn on the sketch. He drew his mother holding Goten and a hand on his picture self's shoulder. Beside Chi-chi was Goku with his halo above his head and a hand on Gohan's shoulder. Gohan's picture self was holding Golynn. A few moments before class ended Gohan studied his drawing debating whether or not to add or subtract anything. Videl got a glimpse at Gohan's art as she was walking by.
‘Oh wow, Gohan's a really good artist.’ The bell rung and Gohan handed in his drawing before Ms. Jones made a comment or Videl would leave him behind. Gohan followed Videl down the hall to the gym. He cringed as he walked down the stairs of the thought of wearing a short-sleeved article of clothing. Sharpener clapped him on the good shoulder.
"Now we see if those martial arts pay off Gohan." He just nodded and began to change only taking a few moments. Gohan looked at his arm; there was scars criss-crossing it all over. It didn't look too bad in his opinion of course he had seen many bloody battles before. Gohan followed Sharpener upstairs to sit on the gym floor. He began his own set of stretches, laughing to himself as others tried to copy him. The guy's gym teacher, Mr. Fri, came up and lead stretches. As the girl’s gym teacher, Mrs. Kep, took role everyone was silent. When she got to Gohan she looked at him then his arm. She tsked and walked away the whole time muttering. After stretching it was time to start class. The boys went to one end of the old gym while the girls went to the other to head outside to run the mile.

"Remember what we all practiced. Good hand and feet grip. Also if you feel you’re going to fall let us know we'll help you down. Alright first up, Saluth." a short boy with brown hair and glasses stepped up the rope. He began to attempt to climb the rope. The boy got to the third knot, but there was still twelve all together.

"Smith then Pencil." Was called out by the teacher 15 minutes later to the rest of the boys. Gohan waited and watched Sharpener get to the 9th knot. That was the highest so far, that meant Sharpener was in the lead.

"Ok that was good everyone, I'm glad you all gave it their all."

“I didn't go yet, Mr. Fri." Gohan said in a clear voice.

"Son, your student info..."

"I know what it says but I can climb the rope." Using his left arm he hoisted himself into the rope. Securing his feet on the first knot and pulled himself up with his left hand, using his right a little. In a matter of minutes Gohan was at the eighth knot ready to move to the next knot. As Gohan was shimming, he slipped and lost some of his balance. He grabbed a hold of the rope with his right arm. After a few moments he continued his climbing. Gohan reached the twelfth knot and balanced himself on the rope with his right arm and both feet and reached out to ring the bell. Most girls looked up while they were running to see who had rung the bell. Videl had been sitting on the bleacher for a long time now and was amazed that Gohan had made it up the rope. Gohan jumped off the rope doing a flip before he landed.

"Told you I could do it, Mr. Fri." Gohan said before going down to change back into his gi. Sharpener again clapped Gohan on the back,

"Let me guess you think you’re something special now?"

"No that was just easy so I did it." He replied with a smirk. Gohan came up from the locker room and looked for Videl and Erasera. He found the girls talking in the crowded hallway.

"What?!? He manged to climb the rope with only one arm. How could he do that when most kids can't even get past the ninth knot? He really doesn't seem injured." Erasera exclaimed as they stood waiting for him probably.

"Who knows Erasera but all I know is I can't wait to get a spar with him." Gohan smirked and walked over to the girls. The small trio waited patiently as a group of small people went by also known as sixth graders. Gohan almost laughed at the childish behavior such as pushing, shoving and other silly things. Sharpener met up with them once again at the stairwell.
The next class was math with Mr. Tinnell. Gohan took a seat in the very front of the class in a seat that was attached to its desk. A girl with short blonde hair and grey eyes sat down behind him. She had to be a tomboy if you went by her looks and clothes; she had a VERY baggy pair of jeans on and a baggy orange skating shirt.

"Kris do you have my drumsticks?" A boy with light blonde hair yelled in form the hall at the girl behind him.

"Nah Andy haven't touched them, you probably left them in the band room." Gohan noticed that Videl and Sharpener sat across and diagonally from him. Mr. Tinnell walked in and said notebooks open and homework folders out. Gohan raised his hand and waited.

"Yes, Gohan."

"I need a homework folder sir." Mr. Tinnell walked over into his closet and pulled out an orange folder out and wrote Gohan's name on it with a sharpie.

"Everyone get into your groups and work on the practice problems." Videl, Kris and Sharpener moved together and motioned for Gohan to join them. The group began to multiply and divided signed numbers and a tiny bit of algebra on the side. Twenty later Mr. Tinnell was talking to three girls.
"Jenny, Lizzy, and Mel will you place some of your answers on the board. If anyone sees mistakes raise your hand." Just as they began an announcement came over the loud speaker.

"Will Son, Gohan please report to the office" Gohan paled a little bit then began to walk out of class with Videl behind him. Gohan reached the office to be greeted by a strange sight; Bulma, Chi-chi and Vegeta where each holding a baby standing in the office of his school. Chi-chi had Goten, Bulma had Trunks and strangely and scarily Vegeta had Golynn by the tail, but she wasn't awake and crying.

"Mom? Bulma?" Gohan questioned completely ignoring Vegeta's snort.

"Hon, Bulma wanted to perform an assembly with me and Vegeta is our body guard. We need you and a friend to watch the twins and Trunks." Gohan looked at the twins, Goten who was awake with orange and blue long sleeved gi. Next his gaze shifted to Golynn who was still part way asleep and awake. She wore a gi with an navy blue gi with a orange undershirt which was long sleeved too. Finally his gaze shifted to Trunks who was being held and was fast asleep. He wore a yellow and red long sleeved gi.

"Ok mom I guess. Videl do you want to help me babysit for a while, it’ll get us out of a few classes at least?” Gohan asked her and after she gave a nod he gave out some introductions.
“This is my mom, Chi-chi and her best friend, Bulma. The short man is Vegeta, my father's greatest rival. My mom has my little brother Goten, Bulma has her own son Trunks and Vegeta has my little sister Golynn." Videl looked a little confused but was ready for the challenge.

"I guess Gohan but what's with their tails?" All the adults looked guilty but Gohan waved it off.

"I'll explain later. Mom whatt time does the assembly start?"

"Two periods from now I think. So you'll have to go sit in the auditorium until them. Sorry about this Gohan dear. I love you see you later son!" Chi-chi called over shoulder as she, Bulma and Vegeta left the office. Gohan began to walk towards the auditorium with Golynn in his good arm and Videl was holding the other two.
