Normal Friends from Strange Places
Part Nine
By Maria Cline

Rain fell softly as Trey Troi slowly woke up from his troublesome sleep. He stared upward to see that he was laying next to Gohan and Goten on a spare futon. It was still so strange for him to even be in the same room with two other boys. It had been one week since Tien disowned Trey. At first, Trey planned to just stay at Gohan's for the night, at least to rest before going off to find his own place. Then he stayed for the day. Now Chi Chi was making plans for adoption.

He got up and looked at his watch. "Time for school..." Trey muttered as he shook his friend. "Wake up, Gohan."

Gohan moaned as he turned over. "Just five more minutes, Trey..."

"Do you want to miss breakfast?" Trey whispered.

Gohan jolted up and exclaimed, "No way!"

"Me neither!" Goten joined as he jumped up as well. The two demi Saiyans rushed to breakfast while Trey stood still. He knew better than dare to race two hungry Saiyans to food. The young warrior jogged to the kitchen where Chi Chi had laid out her vast amount of food. Goten, Gohan, and Bardock were eating far faster than any normal human would dare to consume food. Trey calmly sat at his seat and started eating.

"Excellent as always, my lady." Bardock commented after he swollowed his food.

"Uh huh." Goten and Gohan agreed with their mouths full.

Chi Chi smiled softly as she ate. She didn't mind feeding so many mouths. Bardock had been able to provide food to sustain himself and more. Trey often gave her money just to pay for his share. The two latest arrivals were polite, neat, and most importantly, knew who was boss of the household.

After Breakfast, Trey cleaned up the mess at super speeds. It was another of his ways of paying for Chi Chi's hospitality.

"Come on, Trey!" Gohan said as he transformed into Saiyanman and flew up into the air.

"Okay!" Trey said and he sneezed. In a poof, he became Trigun and jumped onto Saiyanman's back.

"Let's go." Trigun said.

"Now, remember to call if you have to fight any supervillianesses..." Chi Chi warned, "I don't want to worry about you."

"We'll be fine, Mom." Saiyanman said as he pecked her on the cheek. "Bye! Later, Goten, Grandpa." Saiyanman flew off with Trigun holding on tight.

"Those boys..." Chi Chi sighed as she glanced at Bardock and Goten. "Okay, time for your lessons!"

"Yes, Ma'am." Bardock and Goten said at once.

*****

Videl sighed as she managed to get to school. The past week had been boring. Crime had almost stopped thanks to Trigun and Saiyanman. She found herself wondering if she should stop training, since she will never be as powerful as Saiyanman, or even Trey. Her father still hadn't returned home and she didn't care. She didn't want to confront him about the truth yet. She could barely confront the truth at all.

She gazed upward to see Saiyanman and Trigun on his back. **Odd, why does Tre- Trigun need to have Saiyanman fly him?** She thought.

Videl and Gohan spent the last week avoiding each other. Neither could comprehend on what the other was thinking. They could barely share eye contact without blushing. **I have to talk to Gohan, today!** Videl thought determined as she marched to the school.

Meanwhile, in a convienent alley, Trey and Gohan walked out wearing their normal clothes. **You know, you have to talk to Videl about last week.** Trey said as he walked next to Gohan.

**I don't know... I think she hates me.**

**She doesn't hate you. She just doesn't know you like I do.** Trey insisted, **She does like you. You were the reason Videl left that strange dream world.**

Gohan nodded. **But what about Tien? You haven't spoken to him in the last week.**

Trey blushed as he looked down. **That was different. I know that Tien hates me. Why do you think he threatened to disown me if I don't stop being a defender?**

**He's a parent. All parents worry about their kids going off to save the world. My mom worries about me all the time, especially when I was out going to Namek.** Gohan explained.

Trey rose an eyebrow and asked, **Did Chi Chi threaten to disown you if you go to Namek?**

Gohan paused and then looked down. **Err... no.**

**Thought so.** Trey thought triumphanly as he marched on. **The difference between you and me is that your parents have complete faith in your strength. My parents don't. They never will trust the world with me like they do with you.** Trey sighed as he stopped.

**Awww... I have faith in your power. You're great! You even helped bring me down when I was out of control with the full moon.** Gohan insisted as he patted his friend on the back. **Someday Tien will know how great a warrior you really are.**

Trey smiled at his friend. **You are the eternal optimist, Gohan...**

**Thanks.** Gohan grinned.

"Can anyone join in this little mind tango?" Videl asked as she came up to them.

"Videl!" Gohan squeaked as he turned red. "What are you doing here?"

"Can we talk in private?" Videl whispered, "Can you do that mind telepathy thing with me?"

**Of course.** Trey put his hands on Gohan and Videl's foreheads and lowered them. **I just established a temporary psychic rapport. You two can talk all you like while we go to class.**

**This is odd.** Videl thought as shuddered at having someone else in her head.

**You get used to it.** Gohan said as he shrugged. **So, what do you want to talk to me about?**

**I just want to get a few things straight.** Videl said as she glared at the taller and much stronger man. **Just because you can destroy mountains and planets doesn't give you any special privilages. You will obey the law.**

Gohan nodded.

**Further more, just because I am Hercule's daughter doesn't make me pathtically weak. I fight for my trophies and I don't steal credit.**

Gohan nodded.

**And finally...** She paused as she put her hands on Gohan's chest, **I want you to teach me those... techniques. I want to fly and do those blasts with my own hands. If you don't, I will expose you and Trey, do I make myself clear?**

**Yes, Ma'am.** Gohan squeaked as he blushed.

Videl smirked as she turned away. **Good... I will be the better fighter, Gohan. Count on it.**

Trey looked between the two and asked Gohan telepathically, **Is it me, or did Videl just sound like Vegita?**

"I heard that!" Videl boomed verbally.

*****

Unseen by all, a dark figure with a long mane of hair appeared from the shadows. He was tall with dark eyes and wearing a set of beat up Saiyan armor.

"How did I get here?" The man wondered as he strode into the street.

*****

Meanwhile, a man woke up in the middle of the woods and he looked up. He was tall with a pair of glasses and a well pressed suit. He closed his eyes and scanned outward. He gasped when he realized he couldn't sense his daughter, his father, or Bra. Then, he realized that many of the younger warriors were not here and yet, he could sense what felt like dupicates of his own power.

"Gotta go home." He said as he flew up.

*****

A little boy moaned as he opened his eyes when he realized that he was in the mountains. How did he get here? He reached outward and laughed when he could sense Tien, Yamcha, Choutsu, and Piccolo. They were alive after all! But, how was that possible? The powers were almost overwhelming but he focused. Then, he realized his father's was gone. His father was weak but he should've been able to sense it. His eyes shot open when he recoginzed Vegita's Ki. "How did he get here?" The boy wimpered.

*****

"How did I get here?" A blond young boy wondered as he looked around. The boy scanned out and sensed more strong powers than what should be. The planet itself felt strange to him. "Weird..." That was when he sensed 'copies' of his own power. He flew up and raced to the closest one.

*****

"Okay, so, Videl, when do you want to start your flying lessons?" Gohan asked candidly as they walked from their school after a long day of learning.

"Right away." Videl commented, "I want to fly like you two tomarrow!"

"That is not so simple." Trey said as they went into a convient alley. "You will have to first learn about controling Ki, and then generating enough for proper use, then, maybe you can learn to fly."

Videl scowled. She knew that flying would be complicated but she didn't know that there was so much to learn before being able to even get off the ground. "How long will it take?"

"Ummm..." Gohan looked up as he tried to remember how long it took him to learn to fly when he was a little boy. "Well... it took me a few days to learn to fly, but that was because Piccolo was tossing me off of a cliff."

"And you were focusing fully on training at the time." Trey pointed out, "It took me about... a month of proper mediation and learning. But, Tien was playing it safe at the time."

Videl's bright blue eyes bluged and she asked, "You mean that if I want to learn how to fly fast, I have to be tossed off of a cliff?!"

"If you want to." Trey repied as he smirked.

"Hold it! No way!" Gohan screamed at the top of his lungs, "I can't throw Videl off of a cliff to teach her how to fly!!!"

"Huh?"

The group turned around to see Erasa standing there fully shocked at the conversation. "Oh shit." Trey muttered as he came up and waved his hand. "This conversation never took place."

"This conversation never took place." Erasa repeated in a dull tone.

"You never heard us talk about tossing Videl off of a cliff."

"I never heard you talk about tossing Videl off of a cliff." Erasa said as she walked away.

Smoke came out of Videl's ears as she marched up to the triclops. "Stop... doing... that!" She seethed. "Stop doing all those weird... mind tricks on innocent people."

"She's only forgetting what she wanted to forget." Trey replied as he turned his back. "Besides, it's easier this way."

"Still... you can't go around making people forget about what they saw! I know you are many things but you're not one of the 'Men in Black!" Videl screamed.

At that moment far away... a man in a dark suit and sunglasses sneezed.

"There are some things that must be done." Trey argued, "I've done this sort of thing all my life, trust me I know what I am doing."

"But still..." Videl twisted her face in disgust, "I don't like anyone having the power to manipulate others like that."

"Why not? Your father manipulates people on a daily basis and you still love him." Trey quipped.

Videl scowled and said, "That was different. What do you think, Gohan?" Videl turned around and saw that the demi Saiyan had vanished. "He... disappeared! Coward!"

"Must've snuck away while we were arguing." Trey figured as he smirked. "Poor guy."

Videl just shook her head. "That Gohan is so hard to figure out. He's a super powerful nerd who could bash mountains with his head."

"Yeah, he is... but that is what makes Gohan, Gohan."

"Who are you talking about?" A little boy asked from behind them. The two turned around to see a small boy standing there.

"None of your concern, kid." Videl commented, "Are you lost?"

The boy nodded. "Uh huh. I want to go to Wokog Hospital, that's where my mommy and daddy are."

"Wokog Hospital?" Videl repeated, "That's quite a distance, what's your name?"

"Gohan Son."

At once, Trey and Videl face faulted and Trey stared at the boy. **Videl, this kid is Gohan! Our Gohan! His power is much weaker but it's definately Gohan!** Trey thought out to Videl.

**What?! But... can Gohan change age at pure will?**

**Not that I know of.** Trey grinned nervously and knelt down to the boy. "Say... Gohan... why are your Mommy and Daddy at the hospital?"

"Oh... Daddy was nearly killed while fighting Vegita and Mommy is staying with him because she wanted to keep an eye on him." The kid called Gohan explained.

"That's... twelve years ago." Trey muttered as Videl just gawked at the boy. "Say... Gohan, could you wait here with Videl while I go out and do something?" Trey asked as he glanced at Videl. **Keep an eye on Gohan for me.**

"Me?!" Videl repeated, "Why me?"

"Because, I'm faster than you and we gotta find out what's with this Gohan." Trey whispered, "You'll do fine. Just treat him to ice cream or something." The warrior ran off leaving Videl and the kid behind.

*****

A giant ape roared as a bright light shone overhead. A lone figure watched from the trees in astonishment. The ape had a power of only around 100,000 and he was in the middle of the woods.

"Hold it right there evil ape." A figure boomed as he came up. He was small with a white bandana, sunglasses, and a green and black outfit. "For I..." He did a bunch of poses and said, "The Great Saiyanman and my sidekick Trigun."

"Hey!" A young boy with dark sunglasses and purple hair said as he came up with a set of plastic guns. "I'm not the sidekick! You're the sidekick!"

"No way! Gohan is the hero and Trigun is the sidekick! Saiyanman can fly and Trigun can't so he's a sidekick!"

"But, I'm older!" Trunks boomed, "And stronger! And I don't do goofy poses!"

"Guys... Saiyanman and Trigun are equal partners." The ape said as he waited patiently.

"What is going on here?" A man asked as he came out and stared up at the giant ape.

"Gohan?" The ape asked confused. He was learning how to sense others with his mind and this man had Gohan's signature. But he was different somehow.

"Gohan?" Goten asked as he took off his bandana and glasses. "Why are you wearing glasses? Is it part of your secret identity?"

"What are you talking about? Goten? Trunks is that you?" The glasses wearing Gohan asked confused. The two looked like they were only seven or eight but he didn't remember even meeting a giant ape when he was a teenager. "And who are you?"

"I'm Bardock, your grandfather." Bardock insisted as he hunched down. "But... how come you didn't transform with my artifical moon?"

"I can't transform. I don't have a tail." Gohan explained sounding more confused than ever. "I know this sounds crazy but..." He stared up at his grandfather and said, "I think I'm from an alternate future."

"I see..." Bardock muttered as he reached up and absorbed the ball. Then, he shrank down out of his form like he normally did.

Gohan watched as the ape shrank down to normal human size. He shuddered as he remembered the times when Vegita and his father would transform back before his father left with the dragon. Bardock stood where the ape once was. He was a mirror image to Goku except he had darker skin and a scar similiar to Yamcha's. "Interesting... the family resemblence is incredible."

"We Saiyans tend to resemble each other in families." Bardock explained as he held out his hand.

The glasses wearing Gohan took the warrior's hand and shook it. Bardock gasped as images filled his brain.

*flash*

A boy who looked like Goten lay on the ground wearing a tattered blue and orange gi.

*flash*

A girl who somewhat resembled Chi Chi was arguing with the Goten look alike and a tall man who seemed to be an adult Trunks.

*flash*

An old woman weeping as the boy stood on the floor confused. Gohan and another teen who resembled him were comforting her.

*flash*

The planet Earth exploded in a bright light, similiar to his visions of Planet Vegita when he first gained the power.

"NO!" Bardock screamed as he let go and collapsed onto the ground.

"Grandpa!" Goten said as he shook his grandfather. "Are you okay? Was it more of those visions?"

"Visons?" Gohan repeated almost confused.

"Bardock can predict the future." Trunks explained, "He got it on one of his... planet renovation assignments."

"So, Bar- Grandfather would be sensitive to my different chrono signature." Gohan muttered as he paced, "When he established physical contact with me, he probably picked up on my chrono vibrations and reacted hereto." He glanced at the kids and Bardock who were just gawking at him with identical clueless expressions.

"Huh?" They asked at once.

Gohan slapped himself on the side of the head and said, "Your grandfather saw visions of my future or past because I am from a different timeline."

"Oh."

Bardock stood up and gazed at Gohan with a panicky expression. "Gohan, I had several visions. Most of them revolved around a young boy who looked like Goten. There was one vision that troubles me. I saw Earth and it exploded."

Goten and Trunks blanched. Did Bardock really predict that Earth would explode? They were both scared of what the future hold. Gohan simply nodded. "I see... don't worry, you just read my past."

"Did Earth explode in your time and who was that boy?" Bardock asked wanting to make sure that his horible visions didn't come true.

Gohan looked down and said, "Yes, Earth did explode but we got it back thanks to the Dragon Balls and that boy... well..." Gohan rubbed the back of his head in the usual Son manner. "That's kinda complicated. We better avoid physical contact, Grandfather."

"Yes, of course." Bardock nodded as he glanced around.

"I have to find a way home. My family is going to be worried about me. Maybe I can talk to Bulma. She must already have time-traveling technology at Capsule Corps." Gohan said as he and the others walked to their house.

"I wonder how Lady Chi Chi will react to this." Bardock mused.

"She could very well be excited about my appearance, since I represent her dreams of me being a scholar, being married and having kids." Gohan reasoned.

"Or she would faint first." Bardock commented as he smirked.

"So... does this mean that you are another older brother?" Goten asked in awe of this recent development.

"Well... yes. Since I am your brother and my younger counterpart still exists... you do have another older brother."

"Cool!" Goten grinned.

Trunks shook his head and said, "Goten, you have one weird family."

*****

Trey flew through the air and took off his white bandana. He sensed outward and felt several different powers that resembled Gohan's, but in different degrees. "What is going on?" He muttered as he flew toward the closest Gohan.

He saw a young teenage boy with bright blond hair and green eyes. Trey strained as he tried to catch up. He recognized the Piccolo type attire and yelled, "Hey, Gohan!"

The young boy stopped and flew back to Trey. Trey nearly fell over at the power Gohan radiated. He remembered the stories about how this Gohan had attained Super-Saiyan form and kept it going as part of his training. "Do I know you?" He asked curiously as he glanced at Trey's third eye. "You look like Tien."

"I'm his biological son." Trey introduced himself. "I'm Trey Troi and you are... about seven years in the future."

"Huh? Seven years?! What about Cell?"

Trey sighed as he patted the boy on the shoulder. "He's defeated in this timeline so don't worry. But... we gotta go and figure this out. But first, we need to get Videl and the younger you."

"A younger me? I don't get it."

"Neither do I so this will be pretty confusing." Trey confessed as they flew to Videl and kid Gohan.

*****

Videl smiled sweetly as she and the kid Gohan sat on the bench with ice cream in their hands. She couldn't help but notice how cute this Gohan was. He was small with a firm body and an adorable expression on his face. His black hair was wilder than the Gohan she knew.

She sighed as she prayed that the Gohan she knew is okay. The boy looked up at her and asked, "Ms. Videl? Why are you wearing turtle shells?"

"I'm training to get stronger." Videl replied as she adjusted her helmet.

"Cool... Daddy used to train with turtle shells with Master Roshi." Gohan commented. "You must be pretty strong."

"Not as strong as you, kid." Videl chuckled.

"Awww... what a cute kid!" A high pitch voice squeaked as Videl moaned. Erasa came up and rubbed the boy's head. "What's your name, little boy?"

"It's Gohan!" Gohan replied as he shook Erasa's hand. "What's yours?"

Erasa gasped and said, "Say... do you know that I know another Gohan? Small world huh? You look alot like him too... except my Gohan is taller."

"This is his cousin." Videl said as she patted Gohan's head. "This Gohan was named after our Gohan."

"Ohhhh..." Erasa nodded, "I didn't know he have a five year old cousin."

"I don't have a cousin." Gohan said before Videl clasped her hand over the boy's mouth.

"Kids, they don't know better." Videl laughed nervously.

Erasa looked at the two confused and said, "Ohhh... okay... I gotta go now!" She skipped away.

Videl sighed in relief and let go of Gohan's mouth. Gohan glared at her and asked, "Why did you do that?"

"Because I don't want other people to know who you really are."

"But, I'm Gohan Son!" Gohan wailed at the top of his lungs.

"I know. I know." Videl softly said as she waved her hands. "But... well... we can't let... it's hard to explain."

"Oh." Gohan looked down.

*****

Saiyanman flew through the air looking for crime below him. He snuck away from Videl and Trey to avoid being caught in the middle. They were his best human friends and he liked them both very much, but they fought constantly like they were archenemies rather than fellow crimefighters. Of course he didn't blame them. Videl was mean to Trey because of his techniques, and Trey was mean back since he hated Hercule. They both have different opinions about everything, especially normal things like superhero identities and telepathy.

Saiyanman sighed as he muttered, "I gotta get them to get along better."

He looked down to see a strange figure walking down the street. He had a long mane of black hair that reached down to the ground. His attire was some version of Saiyan armor he didn't recognize. His power was overwhelming and he could only think of one man with that hair and armor. "Raddiz!!!" Saiyanman screamed as he flew down and bashed into the warrior.

"Oh shit." 'Raddiz' muttered as he fought him back.

*****

Trey and Cell Gohan flew on. "So... Trey, what happened in the Cell Games?" Cell Gohan asked curiously.

"I can't say much." Trey replied, "You are from the past, I don't know how it will effect our present if you came back with any knowledge of what will happen."

"Awww... but we did win right? I mean, if we didn't, we wouldn't be alive today." Cell Gohan figured hopefully. He was under a lot of pressure to defeat Cell. Everyone was depending on him to win when he wanted his father to win. He hated fighting and this pressure to become the strongest in the universe when all he wanted to do was curl up with a good book and read.

"Yeah, we did win." Trey said as he smiled slightly. **But the price was still high.** He thought. In the distance, he saw Videl and Chibi Gohan sitting on the bench eating ice cream.

"Hey, guys!" Trey called out and he and Cell Gohan landed next to Videl and Chibi Gohan. The two Gohans stared at each other. The older Gohan recognized the smaller Gohan as a reflection of his past, a Gohan who was just experiencing the pressure of power. The smaller Gohan stared up at the teenage boy. He was dressed like Piccolo without the turban. He had blond hair and green eyes and his power was much stronger than even the giant ape.

"Hello." Cell Gohan said as he smiled, "You may not recognize me but I'm you in six years."

Chibi Gohan gasped and looked at the older boy. "Really?! You're me?! But... your hair is yellow... and those eyes... I don't have green eyes."

"I'm in Super-Saiyan form. It's... kinda hard to explain, let's just say that it's way stronger than the Kaiou ken." Cell Gohan explained.

"Oh... wow... so... you're me? This is so cool!" Chibi Gohan gushed as he took Cell Gohan's hand and shook it.

Trey sighed in relief at the relatively calm reactions of the two Gohans meeting each other. Videl however was taking things a little harder. "What is going on here?!" Videl demanded as she glared at the blond Gohan. "Wait... aren't you..."

"This is Gohan from the Cell Games. Gohan, this is Videl." Trey introduced. "I think we have a small problem."

Videl glared at Trey. "That is the understatement of the century. What more can happen?"

Before anyone else could reply, Videl's watch and Trey's earpeice beeped. *"Videl! Saiyanman and some strange alien with long hair is fighting in downtown Satan City."*

"Did you say Saiyanman?" Videl confirmed.

*"Yes."*

"Trigun and I will be right there." Videl said as she turned her radio off. "Ready?"

"Yeah." Trigun said as he stepped forward with guns in hand. "helicopter or motorbike?"

"Helicopter." Videl replied as she tossed her capsule to the ground. A small helicopter appeared and she and Trigun came in. "You two better come with us." Videl advised the two Gohans. "Saiyanman is our Gohan."

"Yes, Ma'am." Cell Gohan said.

"I'd like to see me as a grown up." Chibi Gohan gushed, "Does he look like my father?"

"Almost identical, except for the hair." Trigun said as the group sat in the helicopter.

"Let's go!" Videl boomed as she flew the helicopter up and out.

"So, what happened to me after Cell?" Cell Gohan asked Trigun as he cleaned his guns.

"Can't really say... you did become a superhero and somehow I got to be your partner." Trigun confessed as he examined his gun.

"Do you know how to use it? Because guns aren't too safe." Chibi Gohan said nervously.

Trigun smirked as he waved his gun around. "Relax, I know how to treat my guns. It's like treating a woman. You gotta do it with great care and style."

Videl rolled her eyes and said, "I've never heard you talk like that before, Trey."

"No that's Trigun. Trey is my alter ego, my split personality." Trigun insisted, "You gotta learn the difference between us."

Chibi Gohan came up to Videl and whispered, "He scares me."

Videl smiled as she rubbed the kid's head. "That's okay... he's nothing to be scared of."

"I heard that." Trigun muttered as he loaded his guns.

"We're coming up to the red zone now." Videl announced as she guided the aircraft to where they saw a pair of figures fighting. Their blows shook the air and the buldings around them as the group landed on a rooftop.

"You two kids stay here." Videl warned as she got up. "This is dangerous business."

"With all due respect, Ms. Videl." Cell Gohan said, "I can handle myself. I am a Super-Saiyan after all."

"He's right." Trigun said to Videl. "This Gohan is as strong as our Gohan maybe stronger."

"How? No... I don't want to know now. Okay, Gohan, you can come with us. Little Gohan, stay at the helicopter."

"Can't I watch?" Chibi Gohan whined.

"No!" Cell Gohan, Trigun, and Videl boomed at once.

"You better stay here... things are a lot tougher than when you fought Vegita." Cell Gohan advised his younger self.

Chibi Gohan gulped as he shook with fear. "St-stronger than Vegita? O-okay... I'll stay here."

"Good kid." Videl said as she patted Chibi Gohan on the head. The group got out of the helicopter and immediately saw Saiyanman and another figure fighting.

Cell Gohan recognized the other figure immediately. "Raddiz!" He screamed as he flew out and punched 'Raddiz'.

"Raddiz? Who's Raddiz?" Videl asked Trigun.

"Gohan's Saiyan uncle. He came to Earth a long time ago and nearly kidnapped Gohan to take him home with him. He was tough back then but... he shouldn't be a challenge now." Trigun figured as he ran in.

Videl took out her megaphone and yelled, "ATTENTION! YOU ARE UNDER ARREST FOR PUBLIC DISTURBANCE, PLEASE SURRENDER PEACEFULLY!"

The three fighters paused and the long haired man asked, "Videl?"

"Leave Videl alone!" Saiyanman screamed as he punched at the guy.

"Yeah!" Cell Gohan agreed as he punch at him.

Dust flew around and Trigun held his nose. "Oh shit... not now... ahh... ahhh choo!" In a sneeze, Trigun became Trey again.

Trey looked around and realized that all three fighters had the same signature. "Oh man... is it possible?" He wondered as he focused harder. "GOHAN! SAIYANMAN! STOP! YOU'RE FIGHTING YOU!" Trey screamed as he flew up and bravely went between the three super-strong warriors.

"Huh?" the three asked as they stared at each other.

Saiyanman looked closely at the man he was fighting and saw that he did have his face. "You're me?"

"Whoa..." Cell Gohan agreed as he came up. Saiyanman saw him for the first time and jumped.

"Hey! You're me!" Saiyanman exclaimed as he looked down at his younger self.

"And you two are me." The long haired Gohan said as he came up.

"Oops... sorry... I thought you were Raddiz." Saiyanman appologized as he rubbed the back of his head.

"Me too." Cell Gohan explained as he did the identical gesture.

"That's okay." The long haired Gohan said as he rubbed the back of his head.

"This is getting weird." Videl muttered as she watched the three Gohans rubbed their heads the exact same way. "Okay, back to the helicopter! All of you!"

"Right." The group said as they went back to the helicopter.

Videl looked around at the damage and looked up. "Please, let this be all." She prayed.

"I'm sorry for attacking you." Saiyanman said as he and the others walked to the helicopter. "I thought you were Raddiz."

"That's okay... I understand completely." The Long Haired Gohan said as he laughed. "I need a haircut."

"Why don't you get one?" Cell Gohan asked, "I mean... you do look kinda scary like that."

"I can't... my hair is very tough." The Long Haired Gohan explained as he reached back and took a small part of his hair. He let out a small ki blast and his hair remained unsinged.

"Whoa..." Cell Gohan and Saiyanman said in awe.

"Will you cut that out!" Videl screamed, "I want to know what to do now! There's nothing in the handbook about dealing with multiple alternate versions of superheroes!"

"I'm sorry." The Long Haired Gohan said as he gently patted Videl on the back.

"We better go to Capsule Corps." Trey suggested, "Bulma could examine all the Gohans we have so far."

"I think there's one more of us back home." The Long Haired Gohan said, "And another just ahead."

"That's Chibi Gohan, he's you back before he went to Namek."

"There's another one of me!" Saiyanman exclaimed, "Oh man... that kid must be scared stiff... I wasn't too brave when I was five."

"You were fighting evil alien forces back then... that's pretty brave to me. All I did was go into isolation and learn to control my Trigun half." Trey commented.

"You were fighting evil alien forces when you were five?!" Videl exclaimed in shock. "What kind of childhood did you have?!"

"An interesting one." The Gohans said in unison.

"Stop doing that!" Videl moaned.

"Gee Videl, you gotta learn not to overreact to stuff like this." Saiyanman said, concerned about Videl's well being.

"I am surrounded by several versions of you. I think I am reacting just fine." Videl said as she glared at Saiyanman.

They went up to the helicopter and Chibi Gohan peeked out and gasped at the sight. Then, he saw the Long Haired Gohan and screamed, "Oh no! Raddiz!"

"Relax, he's the older version of you." Saiyanman said, "Like I am." He took off his mask and grinned.

Chibi Gohan relaxed and said, "Whoa... you look just like Daddy."

"You do." Cell Gohan admired.

"I know." Gohan said as he rubbed his head. Then, he slapped himself over the head and moaned, "Shoot! I forgot the introductory poses!" He quickly did a bunch of weird poses on the helicopter as Trey, Videl, and the Long Haired Gohan rolled their eyes. Gohan finished and said, "I am Saiyanman!"

Chibi Gohan and Cell Gohan sweatdropped and Chibi Gohan asked, "And I'll grow up to be like that?"

Cell Gohan leaned next to Trey and whispered, "Why is this version of me posing like he was part of the Ginyu Force?"

"I was hoping you might know." Trey whispered back.

"I don't know myself." The Long Haired Gohan sighed as he shook his head. "We better get going to get the last me."

"I wonder how old he will be?" Cell Gohan wondered, "I hope he's older than me."

"I think he's older. He's pretty powerful but most of that power is dormant. Like he hasn't trained formally in a long time." Long Haired Gohan commented.

"So, Videl, can you take us back home?" Gohan asked as he and the other Gohans sat down.

"Might as well..." Videl sighed as she went to the pilot's seat. "Okay, everyone hold on." She said as she jolted the aircraft up and guided it back to the air.

"So... older me, why do you look so much like Raddiz?" Chibi Gohan asked the Long Haired Gohan.

"It's an accident really. You see, I was training hard in the Next Dimension and... I hadn't had a chance to cut my hair." The Long Haired Gohan replied as he examined his hair. "It never really bothered me... except when I was mistaken for Raddiz."

"What are you training for?" Gohan asked as he leaned back in his chair. "Don't tell me I have to fight some more superpowerful villians."

"I'm training because my father is gone." The Long Haired Gohan replied, "And that I am needed to... aid... the Supreme Kai."

"You know the Supreme Kai?" The other Gohans and Trey, asked astonished.

"Yup, I've known him for a long time. Nice guy, great at cards."

"You know... the God of Everything?!" Videl screamed. **What more surprises that these guys have?**

"Of course. You will know him too if everything goes right in this universe." The Long Haired Gohan said, "In fact, I was being trained for a position as one of the... monitors... of the multiuniverse."

"Sounds heavy." Cell Gohan commented.

"Yes, but you won't have to be like me for a long time." The Long Haired Gohan said as he laughed.

"Ummm... can we see Piccolo too?" Chibi Gohan asked, "I really missed him and I wanted to thank him for saving my life!"

The other Gohans looked at the smallest one and grinned. "Sure!" Gohan said, "I'd like to see Piccolo too."

"Me too!" Cell Gohan agreed.

"I'd be great to see him again." The Long Haired Gohan said as he nodded.

"I love Piccolo." The Gohans said in perfect unison.

Videl just tried to block out the weird converstaion by slamming the back of her head on her chair. "Ignore them. Just ignore them." She chanted to herself.

"I even wrote a song about Piccolo." Chibi Gohan gushed as he took out a sheet of paper. "Did I ever sing it to him?"

"I think we did." Cell Gohan answered as he looked at the sheet.

"Yeah, we did." Gohan commented as he leaned back, "Now... how did it go again?"

"Oh, oh, oh it's such a pain. Scary-faced iguanas, dump trucks, Fleet-footed, flying squirrels and super cars. What should I do?" Chibi Gohan started.

"I let out a shout! I throw my notebook and pencil away, And Saturn's rings, hey become a roller coaster." Cell Gohan joined in.

"Someone louder than my mom yeow!" Gohan came in as he grinned.

"Can he really exist?" Chibi Gohan sang.

"Even hey, hey, hey before I realize, I step and step and jump. Off I, off I, off I go with Piccolo!" The Long Haired Gohan sang.

"He makes things so exciting for me. Off I, off I, off I go with Piccolo! Oh, oh he's so strong! Mr. Piccolo, I love you so much.
Mr. Piccolo, I, I, Mr. Piccolo, I, I, Mr. Piccolo, I love you so much!" The Gohans sang in perfect unison.

"I nearly forgot about that song!" Gohan exclaimed, "Wow... it sure was a long time ago."

"Tell me about it." The Long Haired Gohan agreed.

"That was an interesting song." Trey said as he snickered.

"Very interesting. That's good for a five year old." Videl complimented.

"Well... Mommy always believe that I am gifted with my brains." Chibi Gohan said as he blushed.

"Oh man! How will Mom react to us?!" Cell Gohan exclaimed, "She and Dad are going to be shocked to see all of us!"

Gohan, Trey, Long Haired Gohan, and Videl cringed as they looked to the side. "Ummm... Gohans, Dad's not home right now." Gohan said softly.

"Huh? Where is he then?" Chibi Gohan asked, "Don't tell me he's at the hospital again!"

"No... no... not like that at all." Gohan said as he sweatdropped.

"He's dead, isn't he?" Cell Gohan asked bitterly.

"He's out training in a far away place." The Long Haired Gohan commented, "Just like I was."

"Really?!" Chibi Gohan exclaimed, "Wow! He must be very strong now! Can he beat Vegita by himself?"

"Of course." Gohan said as he winked and did a thumbs up. "In fact, I can beat him now."

"Are you telling me the truth?" Cell Gohan asked suspiciously at the Long Haired Gohan.

"Absolutely, he's training as we speak." The Long Haired Gohan said with complete sincerity.

"Well... okay... I guess I should trust you since you are me." Cell Gohan reasoned.

"Oh yeah!" Gohan agreed in relief that he didn't have to tell his younger counter parts about his father's eventual death. Especially Cell Gohan since he will be somewhat responsible for his father's death.

"There it is!" Trey said as he pointed down out of the window. The Gohan group rushed to look outside to see a small capsule house with a clothsline outside.

"Wow... it didn't change a bit!" Chibi Gohan and Cell Gohan admired as they look out of the same window.

"It barely changed." The Long Haired Gohan muttered as he looked out as well.

Videl landed the craft carefully and sighed in relief. At least this strange ride was over. "Okay, everybody out."

"Let's go, Mini-me, you'll meet your future little brother." Gohan said as he picked up Chibi Gohan and carried him out.

"My future little brother?" Chibi and Cell Gohan exclaimed.

"Oh yeah." Gohan grinned as the group got out of the car. He came up to the door and knocked, "Mom, I'm home and I brought... a surprise!"

"Come on in, dear! We have company!" Chi Chi called out excited.

The Gohan group, Trey, and Videl looked at each other and shrugged. "Oh well... let's get in." Gohan said as he took the lead and opened the door.

They came in to see Chi Chi talking excitedly with another Gohan. This Gohan was almost identical to the teenage Gohan in both stature and power. But, he was dressed in a suit and tie, and for some reason, a pair of geeky looking glasses. Chi Chi looked up and introduced, "Oh! Hi! Gohan, this is Gohan, my son!"

"He looks like you, older me." Chibi Gohan commented.

Chi Chi gasped as she took the Chibi Gohan out of Gohan's arms and held him. "Awww... Gohan! You look so adorable at that age!" She gushed as she hugged him and kissed him.

"Mommy!" Chibi Gohan exclaimed in joy as he hugged back. "Wow, you changed your hair!"

Chi Chi sighed as she held the small boy in her arms. She had forgotten how small Gohan was when he was a child. Most of the time, he was away on some damn training mission but now he was back. She glanced up to see the other Gohans. Her face was filled with shock as she gazed down at Cell Gohan and then at Long Haired Gohan.

Cell Gohan was just like she had remembered back before Goku died. Her heart ached as she recognized the boy who was forced to grow up so fast because the world demanded it. "G-Gohan..." She whispered as she put her hand on Cell Gohan's Super-Saiyan hair. **Why does he have to stay a Super-Saiyan?** She thought as tears filled her eyes.

"Mom, are you okay?" Cell Gohan asked deeply concerned.

"Yes, I'm fine, Gohan." Chi Chi whispered as she looked at the Long Haired Gohan who looked the most nervous.

"Hi, Mom." The Long Haired Gohan said as he came up.

"You look just like Raddiz!" Glasses Gohan exclaimed in shock.

The Long Haired Gohan stared at his glasses wearing counterpart. He remembered being him over fifteen years ago. Back when he was a scholar and a family man, before he started he long training with Supreme Kai. "I know." The Long Haired Gohan replied as he nodded.

Glasses Gohan then saw Videl. His heart pounded as he saw his future wife back when she was a teenager. She looked so young and stubborn, much like his own mother but he didn't remember her wearing a bunch of turtle shells. "Hello, Videl." He said as he took her hand and gently shook it.

Videl shook it and then noticed at gold ring on his left hand. This Gohan was married but to who? "Hello... Gohan... this is getting confusing."

"Tell me about it." Bardock agreed as he came in. "Hello... Gohans."

"Daddy!" Chibi Gohan gushed as he jumped from his mother's arms to the man's arms before he could react.

Bardock gasped as images filled his mind.

*flash*

A little boy was captured by Raddiz. He had a small hat with a long monkey tail.

*flash*

Goku was being crushed by a giant ape wearing Saiyan armor.

*flash*

Krillian, Gohan, Yajarobie, and a beaten up Goku were blasted away by the evil prince.

*flash*

Goku lay in a hospital bed covered in bandages while being held down by what looked like a Saiyan torture device.


"It happened again." Bardock muttered as he let go of Chibi Gohan.

Chibi Gohan stared at the man and said, "You're not my Daddy..." He looked at Bardock's tail around his waist and screamed, "Ah! You're a Saiyan!"

"I'm your grandpa, Bardock." Bardock replied as he smiled, "Don't worry, I'm not evil."

"Oh... the scientist!" Chibi Gohan realized.

"I'm not a scientist!" Bardock boomed as his tail bristled up.

"That's for sure!" Goten gushed as he came up and looked at his younger version of his brother. "Whoa... you're the younger version of Gohan... this is so cool."

"Hey! You look just like Daddy!" Chibi Gohan exclaimed as he shook Goten's hand.

"He's right." Cell Gohan admired as he came up. "I got a brother... cool..."

"Say..." Goten said as he put on a throughtful expression. "If you're my brother, and you're younger than me, does that make you my little brother?"

"I guess it does." Chibi Gohan figured. "Hey! I get an older brother!"

"And I get a little brother!" Goten exclaimed.

"This is so cool!" The two boys exclaimed at once.

"I'm glad I never had to deal with alternate versions of me." Trunks commented as he came up.

The older Gohans laughed nervously as they all remembered Mirai Trunks. "Oh boy." Gohan muttered. He looked at his glasses wearing counterpart and asked, "So... when are you from?"

"Well... I'm guessing that you are about seventeen chronologically. Now... I guess that..." He did some mental caculations and concluded, "That I am from about... 20 years in the future."

"You're twenty years older than me?!" Gohan exclaimed as he looked up and down his counterpart. "But... you look the same as me!"

"It's the Saiyan blood." The Long Haired Gohan explained, "It keeps us in our prime longer. I am fifteen years older than my glasses wearing counterpart."

"... why are you wearing glasses?" Cell Gohan asked Glasses Gohan.

"It makes me look smart." Glasses Gohan admitted, "Besides, Mom chose them for me."

"Looks like I still have good taste in the future." Chi Chi said confidently.

"Personally, those glasses make you look geeky." Trey said as he sweatdropped.

"No they don't! And who are you?" He asked, "I don't remember seeing you in my timeline."

Trey frowned at the thought that he didn't exist in this Gohan's time. "I'm Trey Troi. Tien's former son."

"Former son?" The other Gohans repeated concerned.

"I was disowned when I refused to give up fighting evil with Saiyanman." Trey said as he shrugged, "No big deal."

"But, that's mean!" Chibi Gohan screamed, "Why would Tien disown you for that?"

"I didn't know Tien had a son." Cell Gohan confessed.

"He wanted to protect me from being cannon fodder in the battles like the Cell Games." Trey said, "He didn't have faith in my power."

"Still... no father should disown his son or daughter because he or she wanted to help mankind." Glasses Gohan insisted as he frowned. "My daughter was the same way and I didn't like it. But she kept on fighting and in the end... we agreed that it was best for her to do what she needs to do."

"I know. Pan is my daughter too." The Long Haired Gohan recollected.

Chi Chi blinked and then she gushed. "I'm going to have a granddaughter?! Who's the mother?! Do I know her yet?!" She rambled as the two adult Gohans sweatdropped.

"I'd rather not say. It might disturb the future." Glasses Gohan replied and the Long Haired Gohan fully agreed.

"That's right."

"Gee... I wonder who Gohan's future wife will be?" Trey asked sarcastically as he looked at Videl who was blushing brightly.

"Maybe we shouldn't find out." Cell Gohan said as his teenage counterpart was blushing. "Besides, I have to agree with Trey, those glasses do make you look like a geek."

"They do at that." Chibi Gohan fully agreed.

"Yup. They look bad on me." Gohan said.

"All those who think those glasses look bad on that Gohan raise your hands." Trey instructed. At once, Bardock, Goten, Trunks, Chibi Gohan, Cell Gohan, Gohan, Long Haired Gohan, Trey, and Videl rose their hands. "See? Four out of five Gohans agree that those glasses make you look like a geek."

"I don't care what you think. I like my glasses." Glasses Gohan said as he firmly nodded.

"This guy needs some help." Gohan said as he pointed to Glasses Gohan.

"Maybe we should focus on a way to get all of you back to your own timelines." Bardock suggested.

"We better head off to the Capsule Corporation. Maybe Bulma can help you guys." Gohan suggested.

"Perhaps." The Long Haired Gohan agreed.

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door. "I'll get it!" The Gohans announced.

"I'll get it." Trey offered, "If it's a civilian, he might freak out at this sight." He went up to open the door. Standing at the doorway was Piccolo.

"Hey, I sensed a group of powers that were identical to Gohan. Something I should know about?" Piccolo asked as he came in.

"Piccolo!" Chibi Gohan gushed as he rushed up and jumped into Piccolo's arms. "I missed you so much?!"

"Gohan?!" Piccolo exclaimed as he looked around. He looked at the SSJ Gohan and muttered, "Gohan?!" He glanced at the adult Gohan and exclaimed, "Gohan?!" He glared at the Raddiz-look-alike Gohan and snarled, "Raddiz!"

"Actually, I'm Gohan too. I'm from about thirty years in the future." The Long Haired Gohan said as he stood still.

Piccolo gawked at the other Gohans and then at the Gohan in his arms who was still hugging him. "Okay... so all of you are from alternate universes right?"

"I don't know how but yeah, they're alternate versions of me." Gohan said as he looked at his group. "Pretty freaky huh?"

"Yeah... well... being in the same room with all of the other Gohans are a little odd." Piccolo said as he smiled at the smallest Gohan. "Hey, kid."

"Piccolo! You're alive!!!" Chibi Gohan gushed as he hugged his sensei tighter.

"Yeah, I'm alive. Thanks to you." Piccolo said warmly as he patted the boy on the head. "Here, Chi Chi." Piccolo handed the boy to Chi Chi.

"Thank you, Piccolo." Chi Chi said as she smiled at her friend.

Chibi Gohan blinked at the warm exchange. "You two are friends?" He asked in pure awe.

"Well... we didn't get along too well at first. But... yes. Piccolo is like the brother I never had." Chi Chi explained as she patted her son on the head.

"Woo hoo! Piccolo and Mommy are going to be best friends!" Chibi Gohan crowed as he hopped out of Chi Chi's arms and danced around.

"Kids... they are so carefree sometimes." Cell Gohan sighed as he crossed his arms.

"Kids? That little Gohan is only six years younger than you." Trey pointed out.

"Six years, has it really been only that long since I was his age?" Cell Gohan mused.

"Is it me or does that kid act more mature than our Gohan?" Videl realized as she stood in the corner.

"Well... I am responsible for saving the world from Cell." Cell Gohan said as he looked down. "I just wish... I'll know exactly what will happen."

"Can't say... but you will do great." Piccolo said as he patted Cell Gohan on the shoulder. "I'm proud of you." He looked around and said, "Proud of all of you."

"You don't even know me yet." Glasses Gohan confessed as he fought the urge to cry. He remembered the way Piccolo looked when he stayed on Earth as it exploded. He told him how proud he was as he watched Gohan grow up. Piccolo didn't want to let the Dark Star Dragon Balls threaten Earth again. He could've lived for a very long time and yet he let himself die. "Oh... Piccolo!" Glasses Gohan wailed as he hugged Piccolo tightly.

"It's okay, Gohan." Piccolo said as he patted the man on the back. "Look, when I die in your timeline, I did it for a worthy cause right?"

"Yes, but still..." Glasses Gohan backed away and said, "There's something very important I have to tell you. It's a future threat that could happen in this timeline."

"You shouldn't tell them anything." The Long Haired Gohan warned, "It may not be safe."

"I understand the moral implications but I may have been given this chance to do some good for a change." Glasses Gohan said, "We better talk in private."

"Okay." Piccolo nodded as the two went outside.

"Wonder what's this threat?" Cell Gohan wondered.

"Do you think it has anything to do with Vegita or the Saiyans?" Chibi Gohan wimpered.

"I doubt it." Gohan confessed, "Vegita isn't as frightening as you think now."

"That's for sure, in fact he's Trunks' *mphf!*" The other Gohans and Trunks teamed up and covered the boy's mouth.

"Not another word." Gohan warned.

"You have a big mouth." Trunks grumbled.

"What is it?" Chibi Gohan asked Trunks.

"Nothing. Nothing at all." Trunks replied. **Except that my dad is Vegita.**

*****

Glasses Gohan stood in the woods and Piccolo stood by him. Piccolo couldn't help but notice how aged Gohan seemed. His power wasn't as strong as his teenager's counterpart, but it was still strong.

"Piccolo, do you remember how often we make wishes on the Dragon Balls?" Glasses Gohan asked as he stared up at the bright stars.

"Don't know. We kinda lost track of the wishes. Why?" Piccolo said as he stood next to his student.

"I understand that the Dragon Balls have been helpful and they are responsible for this world's salvation but they will become a threat to the world, if not the universe, in about twenty years." Glasses Gohan warned as he stared at Piccolo.

"A threat?!" Piccolo repeated stunned. "How? Did another enemy use it for an evil wish?"

"Nothing so simple. No... the threat was our fault. We depended on the Dragon Balls too much for help." Glasses Gohan said as he tensed up. "The Dragon Balls gather evil energy every time they were used, like a form of mystical pollution. The evil energy would've disappated but we used the Dragon Balls too much in too short of time. Over time, the evil will transform and hatch out of the Dragon Balls in the form of seven evil Dragons. They are powerful, Piccolo. They make Cell look pathetic. They will destroy and kill most of the world. We eventually stopped them but the price was too great." Glasses Gohan's fists tensed as he shook. "Too great. I don't know if you and the other Z warriors will stop these Dragons in your timeline but I must warn you now before it's too late!"

Piccolo was shocked. Gohan's future self didn't seem like the type to kid about something so dire, especially in the future. "How did you stop the Dragons?"

"I didn't." Glasses Gohan muttered, "Dad and Vegita did. In my timeline, Dad came back to deal with a major threat and stayed but he and Vegita and Pan, my daughter, had the hardest time fighting the Dragons. I didn't train as much as I should've. I was weak. All I did was watch, it was agony! In the end... my father vanished with Shenlong and the Dragon Balls. We don't even know if he's dead or alive! That is why I have to tell you. You have to fix the Dragon Balls before it's too late!"

"Don't worry, Gohan." Piccolo said as he put a firm hand on Gohan's shoulder. "I'll fix the Dragon Balls and prevent the Dragons from hatching."

"There's another problem." Glasses Gohan said as he looked around even more nervously. "The Black Star Dragon Balls must be destroyed as well."

Piccolo stumbled back. "You know about the Black Star Dragon Balls?!" He was confused. How did this man know about the Black Star Dragon Balls? He had hidden them in the Lookout where no one would ever use their destructive wishes.

Glasses Gohan nodded firmly as he crossed his arms. "Yeah... in my timeline, my Dad came back. I can't say how exactly, but he did."

Piccolo sighed in relief as he looked at the house where the other Gohans were. His Gohan missed Goku so much, everyone missed him. "Okay."

"And the years afterwards were great." Glasses Gohan sighed as he smiled, "There was peace... no more pressure to battle or train, time to do what I wanted to do... be a scholar and have my family. It was happy times..." The man frowned, "Dad left to train a promising young warrior but he returns every so often. One day... Dad and the warrior were at the Lookout when Pilaf struck."

Piccolo stared at him and Glasses Gohan just stared back. "Pilaf? That blue idiot that released Demon King Piccolo?" Piccolo asked stunned. He didn't even know that Pilaf will be alive thirty years from now. No one had heard of Pilaf in so long that most either forgot about him or just thought he died.

Glasses Gohan nodded and added, "Yes, and somehow... Pilaf found the Black Star Dragon Balls and wished Dad to be twelve again."

Piccolo nearly fell over. "WHAT?! Why would Pilaf wish Goku to be twelve again?"

"I don't know." Glasses Gohan said as he frowned, "Dad still had his memories but his power had been cut somewhat. He couldn't teleport any more. Anyway, that wish will trigger a chain of events that will lead to a great deal of destruction, pain, and even the Evil Dragons hatching."

"So... basically, I have two sets of Dragon Balls to worry about." Piccolo grunted.

"Exactly." Glasses Gohan said relieved. "I know that if anyone can prevent this, you can."

Piccolo smiled slightly. "At least you still have faith in me, kid."

"I'm not a kid, Piccolo. I'm older than you." Glasses Gohan said as he smiled. "Thank you, Piccolo. Now I know how Mirai Trunks must've felt."

"Let's go inside and get you back to your family." Piccolo said as the two went back inside.

*****

"Okay, everyone into the helicopter." Chi Chi said as she gathered everyone outside.

"We could fly there." Trey offered, "Most of us can fly and I don't think Videl can handle another trip with the Gohan squad."

"I can handle all those Gohans just fine." Videl argued.

"Oh please, you were banging your head on that seat!" Trey countered.

"Are they always like this?" Glasses Gohan asked Gohan.

"All the time." Gohan said as he rolled his eyes. "They just love to bicker I guess. Kinda like Vegita and Bulma."

"You do like Videl right?" The Long Haired Gohan questioned.

"Well... kinda." Gohan said as he blushed.

"You are us, remember? We were you." Glasses Gohan said as he winked. "You do like Videl right?"

"Well... yeah but... oh come on, she's just like Mom. She's stubborn, tight willed, and can't take no for an answer!" Gohan exclaimed.

"Yup, he likes her." Glasses Gohan confirmed as Gohan went up to his mother.

"Sigh, I miss Videl so much." The Long Haired Gohan whispered.

"Me too." Glasses Gohan nodded as the two stared at Videl and sighed. "So young."

"Hai."

"Okay, so we'll fly there." Bardock confirmed.

"Mini Gohan and Mom can take the Nimbus. I can fly Videl and Trey and the others are strong enough to fly there by themselves." Gohan figured as he looked at all of them. "Grandpa, can you get there by yourself."

"Bah! I may be your grandfather but I'm not old! We Saiyans age like fine wine. We only get better with age." Bardock boasted.

"Okay..." Gohan said as he sweatdropped.

"He may look like Daddy but he sure doesn't act like him." Chibi Gohan muttered.

"It's a Saiyan thing." Chi Chi comforted.

"Let's get started. FLYING NIMBUS!" Gohan boomed. The other Gohans looked up to see their old friend the Flying Nimbus zooming down through the air and landing just beside Gohan. The cloud looked around almost confused about the other Gohans. "It's okay... they're just me." Gohan said.

After getting Chi Chi and Mini Gohan on the cloud. The group flew up and to Capsule Corps.

*****

The flight was interesting as Videl flew beside the group of Gohans. The long haired Gohan was up front and was going the fastest, followed by the golden Gohan. Behind them was the suit wearing Gohan and then Trey. Finally, behind them was Gohan, Chi Chi, Goten, and Trunks on the Nimbus, and Bardock.

Videl watched in amazement at the Gohans of the past present and future. They were so idenitcal and yet so different. Each one have their own experiences and pains and yet joys. If she met with four alternate versions of herself, how would she react? Then she realized, "Where's Piccolo?"

Finally, they reached Capsule Corps and landed. They touched down and made their way inside.

"Ummm... Mini-Me, there's something I have to tell you." Gohan said as he looked around.

"What is it, Older me?" Chibi Gohan asked as he looked up at the warrior.

"Well..."

"Who are these people?!" Mrs. Briefs gushed as she came up with tea tray in hand. Her eyes widened as she looked at the different Gohans and then saw the Long Haired Gohan. "And who are you?" She purred as she came up to the Long Haired Gohan and rubbed her body in a seductive way.

The Long Haired Gohan gulped and backed away. "Hey! I'm a happilly married man!"

"Me too." Glasses Gohan fully agreed.

"They're versions of me." Gohan introduced, "That's Gohan, Gohan, Gohan, and the one you're flirting with *shudder* is Gohan."

"Ohhh..." Mrs. Briefs nodded as she gazed at the different Gohans. "So that explains why all of you look so cute!" She looked at the Long Haired Gohan and said, "And you are so... hunky!"

"Can we see Bulma please?" Gohan asked feeling slightly uncomfortable about seeing himself being hit on by Mrs. Briefs.

"Of sure, she's in the lab as usual." Mrs. Briefs said, "I gotta go now. Ta ta..." She walked off singing as the group sweatdropped.

"She didn't change a bit." Cell Gohan moaned as he shook his head.

"Yeah, that's for sure." Chibi Gohan fully agreed.

"Hmmm... she didn't change that much in my time either." Glasses Gohan observed.

"Neither in mine." The Long Haired Gohan confessed.

At once, the Gohans chorused, "That woman scares me."

"You did it again!" Videl screamed as steam came out of her ears.

"Did what?" The Gohans asked.

"Said the same thing at the same time! It gets on my nerves!" Videl screamed as she glared at the Gohans.

"Sorry, we won't do it again." The Gohans appologized as they looked down.

"Oh brother." Videl moaned as she rolled her eyes. "You are impossible."

"You can't blame them, Videl. After all, they are the same person." Trey said as he smirked at Videl's expression.

"Come on, Gohans, we better see Bulma." Chi Chi said as she took the Chibi Gohan into her arms and led the group down the hallways.

"Wow... this place grew since I last been here." Cell Gohan admired as he looked around.

"Tell me about it." Chibi Gohan said as he held on to his mother.

"This place always grows. You should see it in my time." Glasses Gohan said as he looked around.

"It's good to know that Capsule Corps will be successful in the future." Trunks said.

"Yeah, but won't you run it in the future? I mean, your mom is president and all." Goten suggested as he walked beside Trunks.

"Me? No way! I'm going to ditch this place when I grow up. No paperwork for me, that's for sure." Trunks boasted as he crossed his arms.

Glasses Gohan and the Long Haired Gohan sweatdropped as they thought of adult Trunks in their timelines. "Maybe." Glasses Gohan laughed as he put his hands behind his head.

"Bulma!" Gohan said as he came up to the lab door. "Can we come in, we have a small problem?"

"Huh?" Bulma came out of the lab wearing her overalls. "What is..." She looked around to see the different Gohans. "Oh my... Gohan...s?!" She looked over to the Long Haired Gohan and screamed, "RADDIZ?!"

"I'm a future version of Gohan. I just have very long hair." The Long Haired Gohan said as he crossed his arms.

"Okay... so, you are all from different timelines?" Bulma asked in an oddly calm voice.

"Yup." The Gohans answered at once.

"Okay, everyone inside so we can get you examined. There's no telling what effects being in this timeline will have on you." Bulma instructed. Then, she glanced at the Glasses Gohan and asked, "How come you're wearing glasses? I thought Saiyans have perfect vision."

"I do, but this is just to make me look smart." Glasses Gohan said as he adjusted his glasses.

"Okay... well... they make you look like a geek." Bulma confessed as she turned around, "I'll get my dad to examine you guys."

"Woman!" Vegita boomed as he marched up with towel around his neck. Chibi Gohan gulped as he sensed Vegita's power. "The gravity machine is broken again!"

"Later, Vegita! Can't you tell we are having a small multidimentional problem?!" Bulma harped.

"What small multidimentional..." Vegita trailed off as he came into the hall and saw the Gohans. "What the?" Vegita muttered when Chibi Gohan flew up and landed on Vegita's back. The boy started bashing the man's head as Vegita just stared at the other Gohans. "Where the hell did all those Gohans come from?!" He glared at the Long Haired Gohan and asked, "And how did Raddiz came here?!"

"I'm not Raddiz, I'm a future version of Gohan." The Long Haired Gohan said, slightly annoyed.

"I see..." Vegita said calmly when he realized the boy was still bashing his fists into his head. "Can someone get this boy off of my back?!"

"Come on, Mini-me." Gohan said as he pried his smaller version off of Vegita. "Vegita is a good guy in this timeline. He reformed, just like Piccolo."

Chibi Gohan gasped and stared at the Saiyan. "Really?"

"That's right. He won't hurt anyone, not if I have anything to say about it." Bulma comforted as she took Chibi Gohan into her arms and held him. "Right now, the only ones who are in any danger are the training droids."

"How do you know?" Chibi Gohan asked in awe, "And why is he here?"

"Bulma's my m-" Vegita ranted before getting stopped by the other Gohans.

"Not now, Vegita!" Gohan warned as he clamped his hand over Vegita's mouth.

"See? The other Gohans can handle Vegita easy." Bulma said to the frightened Gohan.

"Well... okay. But I still don't trust him!" Chibi Gohan said as he glared at Vegita.

"Wow, he sure is mad at Vegita. I wonder why?" Goten wondered.

"Yeow!" Gohan yelped as Vegita bit his hand. "He bit me!" Gohan wailed as he held his hand.

"Vegita! Don't bite Gohan! You're scaring Little Gohan!" Bulma screamed as Chibi Gohan shivered in fear.

"Let go of me!" Vegita ordered as the other Gohans cautiously let go. "I'm going to get myself something to eat." Vegita said as he marched away. "There are too many Gohans on this planet." He grumbled.

"That Saiyan..." Bulma sighed as she glanced at the older Gohans. "I know that I shouldn't know the future or any possible future unless it's an emergency but is it safe to ask if Vegita and I will change?"

"Well... Vegita will mellow out somewhat." Glasses Gohan confessed as he shrugged, "And you... you barely changed physically."

"I don't know... Vegita can still be Vegita." The Long Haired Gohan disagreed.

"Well... if he wasn't Vegita, I wouldn't be with him, the dumb stuck up prick." Bulma sighed wisfully and then she noticed the others staring at him.

"This conversation is getting weirder and weirder." Videl said as she frowned. "And why is Vegita so untrustworthy to that kid Gohan?"

"Well... let's just say that when Vegita first came to this planet, he wasn't all that nice." Trey said as he sweatdropped.

"He tried to kill us all!" Chibi Gohan screamed.

"He did what?" Videl repeated stunned.

"Well... Vegita is a Saiyan..." Bardock said as he rubbed his chin.

"That isn't something to be proud of." Chi Chi warned as she glared at Bardock.

Bardock gulped as he shrank back. "Yes, My Lady."

"Mom has a way with warriors." Gohan explained to his amused counterparts.

"Oh, boy, you got that right." The other Gohans chorused.

"I... need to get some air." Videl announced as she rubbed her head. She walked away and Trey shrugged and followed her.

"Wonder what's her problem?" The two younger Gohans and Gohan wondered at the same time.

"Poor Videl." The two older Gohans sighed at once. They both know how hard it was for Videl to cope with such changes in her life. Yet, they both knew for a fact that Videl would deal with it and get married to Gohan.

"Gohan in stereo." Bulma mused as she shook her head. "Okay, all of you, come with me. Anyone without a multidimentional counterpart just wait in the living room."

"Oh boy." The Gohans moaned as they marched into the lab leaving the others behind.

*****

Videl stood outside of the corporation and held herself. "All those Gohans." She muttered as she leaned against the wall. How could anyone be so calm about seeing so many of the same person? Even the kids, Goten and Trunks reacted like those Gohans are just a bunch of lost relatives.

"Kinda overwhelming right?" Trey asked as he came up.

"How can anyone be so calm about meeting alternate versions of the same guy?!" Videl screamed, "Even Gohan seem calm about it."

"Well... Gohan and the others have experience in this sort of thing. You see... you remembered the Cell Games right?"

"Yes."

"And that purple haired warrior? That was an alternate version of Trunks. Tien and the other Z warriors met him before Bulma and Vegita even had Trunks. I guess when people deal with things like this on a regular basis... something like this... doesn't seem that odd." Trey rationalized.

"Well... it's odd to me! I'm not like you! I'm a normal human being with a normal life!" Videl screamed.

"But what is normal?" Trey asked, "For me, normal is flying to school, having a gun-trotting split personality, and aliens as friends. For you, normal is fighting crime after school and being a celebrity."

"I see... but this is still overwhelmling for me." Videl moaned, "I... don't know if I can ever handle this sort of thing like you guys can."

"Just give it time. The others were overwhelmed at first but trust me, you will look back at this and laugh." Trey commented as he smirked.

"I hope so..." Videl sighed as she looked up.

All of a sudden, Yamcha carrying Master Roshi, Krillian, and Eighteen carrying Marron flew up with Piccolo.

"Hey, guys! We heard there's a Gohan invasion going on!" Yamcha joked as he landed and let Master Roshi down to the ground.

"Oh yeah, but I wouldn't count four different Gohans an invasion." Trey said as he glanced at Eighteen. "Ms. Eighteen, there's a Gohan from the Cell Games and he might... react to you."

"I don't care about what some past version of Gohan thinks." Eighteen muttered.

"Why would that golden warrior Gohan react to Eighteen?" Videl asked Trey.

"My twin brother and I tried to kill his father when I was first awoken." Eighteen replied for the triclops.

Videl's eyes bludged and screamed, "What?! Does everyone tried to kill Goku when he or she first meet him?"

"Well..." Krillian said as he looked around sheepishly. "Not all of us. Most of us, sure! Goku just had this way of making friends out of enemies."

"Okay..." Videl glanced at Trey and said, "I'll never get used to this."

"You will... the Gohans are inside." Trey said as he gestured inside. The group walked through the doors.

Unseen by all, a figure stood in the shadows watching intensly.

*****

"Well... you are all normal." Dr. Briefs concluded as he finished examining the Gohans. "At least, as normal as you can be."

"Cool." The Gohans said as they got up.

"I am intrigued by your condition, Gohan." Dr. Briefs said to the Long Haired Gohan. "I have data on your body but you just seem so powerful."

"I have been training a great deal." The Long Haired Gohan replied.

"So, can we leave?" Chibi Gohan asked as he looked at the doctor. "I don't like this lab."

"Of course, Gohan." Dr. Briefs said, "All of you can leave."

"Thank you, Dr. Briefs." The Gohans said in unision as they leave.

"Those boys... they are so identical." Dr. Briefs muttered as he went back to work.

"I'm glad that was over." Cell Gohan said as he walked beside his counterparts. "I don't like being examined by doctors, even Dr. Briefs."

"Neither do I." The other Gohans agreed.

"I just hope I don't have to see *shudder* Vegita." Chibi Gohan moaned.

"It's okay. Vegita's not evil. He's just... Vegita." Glasses Gohan comforted.

"Did anyone see Piccolo?" Gohan asked his counterparts.

The other Gohans shook their heads.

"Maybe, he went off to get the others to help us." Chibi Gohan spoke up.

"That could be it." The Long Haired Gohan said, "Piccolo would do that."

"That's for sure." The other Gohans fully agreed. "Piccolo's like that."

Gohan paused and looked around. "Say... don't you think that it's a little weird that we keep on saying the same things at once?"

"Kinda." The other Gohans said.

"I thought so." Gohan confirmed.

*****

"Well... the Gohans are done with their checkup." Bulma said as she got off the phone with her father. "They're all fine."

"That's a relief." Chi Chi sighed as she relaxed on the couch.

"Oh man, this will be a little weird with so many Gohans running around." Krillian said as he fed his daughter.

"The two younger Gohans might not recognize you with that hair." Yamcha joked as he poked Krillian's head.

"They would." Krillian insisted.

Bulma giggled and then glanced at Chi Chi. "Say... Chi Chi... how are you holding up? I mean, seeing the Super-Saiyan Gohan again?"

Chi Chi looked up and smiled a forced smile. "It's hard to say... looking at him... he reminded me so much of the Cell Games and how Goku... *sigh* but I'm okay."

"That's good." Bulma said, "It's kinda cool to see Gohan all grown up. Even if he does look kinda like a geek with those glasses and then like Raddiz."

"Whoa! Hold the phone! Gohan will look like Raddiz?!" Krillian asked stunned.

"Totally. It was so freaky to see Gohan like that." Bulma said. She looked around and asked, "Piccolo, did you tell Tien and Choutsu?"

"I couldn't find him." Piccolo replied as he glanced at Trey.

"Why am I not surprised? He probrably didn't want to be in the same building as me now." Trey grumbled as he crossed his arms.

"Has things been that bad between you and your father?" Videl asked concerned. She felt somewhat guilty for teasing Trey constanly about Tien.

"Yeah, but don't feel guilty, it had been building up for a long time. We never got along that well... especially after he refused to come back to life that one time." Trey explained casually.

"Come on, Trey, that was a long time ago. Besides, we could only come back one person at a time back then." Yamcha recalled.

"Did Tien demand to come back when they were doing the wishes?" Trey asked as he rose an eyebrow.

Yamcha opened his mouth and then closed it.

"Thought so." Trey said as he frowned.

"You have to talk to your father sooner or later." Bulma insisted, "You two can't avoid each other forever."

"Leave him alone." Chi Chi advised, "This is Trey and Tien's problem. Not ours."

"Thanks, Chi Chi." Trey said as he smiled at the woman.

"No problem, Trey."

"Hey, what are you guys talking about?" Gohan asked as he and the other Gohans came in.

There was a collective gasp as Krillian, Master Roshi, Yamcha, and even Eighteen stare in astonishment at the five Gohans.

Cell Gohan grinned and then saw Eighteen standing in the living room. "Eighteen!" He screamed in anger as his Super-Saiyan aura flared around and attacked the android.

"Oh man! Gohan!" Glasses Gohan yelled as he went Super-Saiyan and tried to pull the Cell Gohan away. Unfortuately, Cell Gohan lashed back at the Glasses Gohan and punched him to the wall.

"Ouch." Gohan grimanced as he went Super-Saiyan and tried to pull Cell Gohan away as well. The Long Haired Gohan joined him and managed to hold Cell Gohan in place.

"Relax, kid. Eighteen is good now." The Long Haired Gohan insisted as he focused his power to hold the kid.

"Gohan! Are you okay?" Videl asked the dazed Glasses Gohan who was getting out of the hole in the wall.

"Yeah... I think so... just a little surprised." Glasses Gohan moaned as he held his head.

"Eighteen has reformed?" Cell Gohan asked as he glared at the android.

"Yup, and... she's married to me." Krillian said as he came up with his daughter. "This is our daughter."

Cell Gohan and Chibi Gohan's jaws dropped at the sight. "Whoa Krillian... you have hair." They said at the same time.

"Yeah... kinda grew it out once I got married." Krillian said as he rubbed his hair.

"Wait a second, how can you two have babies? I thought you're an android." Cell Gohan said.

"Wow... you're Krillian's wife?" Chibi Gohan said in admiration as he came closer. He frowned slightly and said, "How come I can't sense you?"

"I'm a robot. Kinda." Eighteen said as she knelt down to see the boy.

Chibi Gohan gasped. "You don't look a robot to me." He said as he reached up and felt Eighteen's chest. "Don't feel like one either."

"Gohan!" Everyone else screamed as Eighteen looked at the boy in disgust.

"Gohan," Eighteen calmly pulled the boy's hand away. "Good boys don't grope."

"Gohan! How could you?!" Chi Chi scolded as she pulled Chibi Gohan toward her.

"I was just checking to see if she felt real." Chibi Gohan said as he looked down and tapped his fingers.

"Like father like son." Bulma sighed as she remembered Goku's 'pat pats'.

"I'm so sorry, Eighteen. You know how naive Gohan can be." Chi Chi deeply appologized.

"I know. I have a daughter his age." Eighteen said as she smiled slightly.

"I don't get it. How can you two have a baby?" Cell Gohan asked, "I mean... you're an android."

"She's human." Krillian said annoyed at the Gohans' reactions. "She was just... altered slightly. She's really a cyborg."

"Ohhh..." Cell Gohan stared at Eighteen and Krillian again. "Then... I'm glad for you two! Congratulations!"

"Thanks, Gohan." Krillian said in relief.

"Hi!" Marron said as she toddled up to Chibi Gohan.

"Oh great, the baby." Trunks moaned as he rolled his eyes.

"I'm notta baby!" Marron growled as she came up to Chibi Gohan. "You're cute!"

"Huh?!" The Gohans exclaimed in shock.

"Whoa! I'm not your type!" Chibi Gohan stuttered as he backed away.

"You know, if it weren't for the fact that this Gohan is from the past, I would've think this is cute." Yamcha commented as he watched the young Gohan back way from the pursuing Marron.

"Oh boy... Marron has a crush on me... and he's not really me..." Gohan sighed as he shook his head.

"There's a thirteen year difference. It would never work." Videl muttered as she giggled at the cute sight. The way Chibi Gohan reacted to Marron was so similiar to the way her Gohan reacted to her when she confronted him about his secret. It was strange and yet insightful to see these different Gohans talking to each other and reacting in so many different ways. The blond Gohan seemed more serious than her Gohan and the youngest Gohan was the most childlike. The two older Gohans look very different from each other and yet seemed to react simliarly. One was thin and very normal looking, he looked more like a teacher than a warrior. The other Gohan was more... as Mrs. Briefs put it 'hunky'.

Videl sighed as she stared at The Long Haired Gohan's large biceps. They look as large as her father's and could no doubt be over a million times stronger. He was so huge and the strong. He was the real life representation of every fantasy warrior in those romance novels.

"Ms. Videl?" Cell Gohan said as he gently shook the woman.

"Huh?" Videl said as she gazed at the young Gohan.

"You're drooling."

Videl put her hand to her mouth and saw a small drool. She blushed when she realized that she is drooling for a future version of Gohan who's old enough to be her father. "No I wasn't." Videl said as she put her hand away.

Videl looked up hoping that noone else would notice when she saw Trey smirking at her. She glared at him and thought as loudly as she could at the telepath. **IT'S NOT LIKE THAT!**

"Not like what?" Gohan asked as he looked at her.

"You don't have to shout like that." The Long Haired Gohan said as he rubbed his head.

"You... heard my thoughts." Videl whispered in shock. Most of the Gohans, Trey, and Piccolo nodded.

"When someone has the telepathic skills, if one person thinks loud enough on purpose, he or she could be heard by everyone." Trey explained as he smirked.

"Great..." Videl sighed as she fought the urge to hide. It was embarrassing enough that she was checking out a future version of Gohan but she had to get caught.

"Look, we have to figure out how you came here in the first place." Bulma said as she looked at the Gohans. "Now... I wasn't doing any transdimentional experiments right now. And I know that the two younger Gohans didn't have anything to do with it."

"It's my fault." The Long Haired Gohan confessed.

"Your fault?!" Everyone else exclaimed as they jumped up and then glared at the Raddiz lookalike.

"How's that possible?" Gohan asked in astonishment.

"Well..." The Long Haired Gohan rubbed the back of his head sheepishly and continued, "I was being trained to be an multidimentional monitor with Supreme Kai. Anyway, I was training on multidimentional teleportation and I somehow got here along with the three other mes."

"Well... that explains how we got here." Glasses Gohan said, "But, why don't you send us back?"

The Long Haired Gohan winced and said, "I don't have a clue on how to send us back. I've never done anything like this before."

At once, everyone except for the Long Haired Gohan facefaulted.

"Do you know anyone who could help us out?" Cell Gohan asked anxiously.

"There is one person... I don't know how to find her. She often finds me and then only if she wants to." The Long Haired Gohan said, "In the meantime, we're stuck here."

"Swell..." Glasses Gohan moaned, "My family will be worried sick about me."

"I wanna go home!!!" Chibi Gohan screamed as tears poured down his face.

"I have to fight Cell." Cell Gohan growled as he pounded his fists.

"Oh man... so many mes." Gohan sighed as he ran his hand through his hair.

"This will be one complicated fic." The Long Haired Gohan said as he looked around.

"Like it's not complicated already." Trey fully agreed.

"I'm going to go and find some help. My friend is one of those types who prefers to talk to me alone." The Long Haired Gohan said as he walked away. "You guys better stay here."

"Might as well. There's not enough room for four Gohans at my house." Chi Chi sighed as she tried to comfort Chibi Gohan.

"So, what do you guys want to do while you're here?" Bulma asked.

The Gohans looked at each other. They know exactly what they want to do while they wait.

*****

"Okay, it's official, I've seen everything." Krillian said as he leaned back with Marron in his arms.

The Gohans were sitting in a row from the youngest to the oldest, each with a book in their hands. Chibi Gohan was reading an sixth grade textbook. Cell Gohan was floating upside down reading a high school text book. Gohan was reading a college text book. And Glasses Gohan was reading a very thick book in Russian.

"Well... now I know why Gohan is so smart." Videl said as she came up to Chibi Gohan. "Do you always read study at the sixth grade?"

"Not really, I was supposed to study at the seventh level but I was busy training for a year." Chibi Gohan replied as he buried his face in his book since his mother was watching.

Videl facefaulted and looked at the other Gohans who were studying intensely. She went up to the floating upside down Gohan and asked, "Why are you reading upside down?"

"I'm training for the Cell Games. I know that I was supposed to relax but I figured I can at least work on my focus and concentration this way." Cell Gohan replied as he turned a page.

"Aren't you dizzy reading like that?" Videl asked as she tried to turn her head upside down.

"Not really." Cell Gohan replied.

"In Super-Saiyan form, I can handle vertigo and blood doesn't rush to my head like it would if I was in normal form." Gohan said.

"Da, that's for sure." Glasses Gohan said as he put down his Russian book and started reading a thick book in Chinese.

"You're done with that book already?!" Videl exclaimed in shock.

"I'm a fast reader." Glasses Gohan said as he looked up from his book.

"I'm glad that Gohan won't stop studying." Chi Chi said beaming with pride. She glanced at Goten and Bardock. They gulped in unison and pulled out books and started reading.

*****

The Long Haired Gohan flew through the air at super speeds. He scanned outward hoping for some sign of his friend.

"Hello, Gohan." A girl said as she appeared next to him.

"Kai Shi." The Long Haired Gohan said as he gazed at her. He recognized the distinct aura of death around the girl despite her appearance. "You look different."

"I look this way because I will be working with your teenage counterpart." Kai Shi explained as she gestured at herself. "I can change if you like."

"No... that's fine. Why are you working with Gohan?" The Long Haired Gohan asked.

"It's none of your concern in this universe. Right now, you and the other Gohans must leave. They're cramping my style." Kai Shi said coldly.

"Sorry." The Long Haired Gohan said as he rubbed his head. "I've never dealt with transdimentional teleportation before."

"That is all right. You are only mortal. No matter how powerful you are." Kai Shi sighed as she conjured up a sheet of paper. "Here's the spell to return all of you back. Below it is another spell to wipe away your counterparts memories except for the Gohan of the present and you. The others must not know of any possible futures to prevent any unnecessary branching off of universes." Kai Shi explained as she gave the paper to the Long Haired Gohan. "Take your time in getting these right, practice if you must. If you do either of the spells wrong, the results will be disastrous."

"Awesome. Thanks, Kai Shi, you're the best." The Long Haired Gohan said as he bowed.

Kai Shi bowed back. "Just try to keep the multiuniverse in tact. And don't tell anyone about me. Especially the present Gohan."

"No problem. Good luck on your mission." The Long Haired Gohan said as he flew off and waved.

"And to you." Kai Shi said as she vanished.

*****

"I'm back." The Long Haired Gohan announced as he came into the living room and saw his counterparts reading. "See that you are having fun studying."

"Oh yeah." The other Gohans agreed.

"You know, this is getting a little weird." Yamcha whispered to Videl.

"This is already too weird." Videl whispered back.

"I got the spells to solve our problems. One to send us back and the other to wipe away any memories about this adventure except from the people who already occupy this dimension." The Long Haired Gohan said as he held his paper.

"You mean I won't remember this?" Chibi Gohan asked as he pouted.

"Would you really want to remember this?" Krillian asked, "I mean... especially about Vegita?"

"Good point." Chibi Gohan nodded.

"Well... I guess it's better this way. I mean, if I remember this, I might be too easy on Cell and no telling what will happen." Cell Gohan said as he crossed his arms and frowned.

"Will I remember this as well?" Glasses Gohan asked, "I come from a future timeline."

"I'm afraid so... at least about me. You know too much about me." The Long Haired Gohan explained. "Now... let's see if I can get this right and send us home." He focused and started chanting in a language that no mortal could understand. A multicolor light started to decend on the group and flashed around them.

Finally, the lights cleared and Gohan looked around. The other Gohans remained but there was a difference. Standing next to the different Gohans were four Krillians.

"You have to be joking!" Krillian moaned as he saw two bald Krillians and two Krillians with gray hair and mustaches.

The four Krillians looked at the Long Haired Gohan and screamed, "GAH! IT'S RADDIZ!" Then, they saw each other and fainted.

"Well... I'm glad they took it well." Eighteen said sarcastically as she smirked at her embarrassed husband.

"Wimps..." Krillian moaned as he blushed bright red.

"Let me send them back before the regain conciousness." Long Haired Gohan suggested as he chanted again and the four Krillians vanished. "I think I got it this time." The Long Haired Gohan chanted and a bright light overcame them.

The light vanished and the group looked to see the Gohans still standing there and a young girl in a bathrobe with a tissue in her hand. "*cough* Where am I?" The girl moaned as she looked around. "Hey! You're Dragon Ball Z characters aren't you! Must be the medicine... oh boy...*caff caff*. Excuse me, I got the flu."

"Who are you?" Gohan asked suspiciously.

"Oh, I'm Maria Cline." Maria introduced herself. "Wow, I can't *cough* believe this! This is some dream!" She gushed as she looked around and saw Gohan. "Wow... you are way cuter in person than in the anime." She sighed.

Videl glared at the strange girl.

"Wasn't there a substitute named 'Maria Cline'?" Trey recalled.

"She doesn't look a thing like her." Gohan replied, "Can you send her back?" He asked as the girl came up and started checking on him.

"Hey! I just got here!" Maria exclaimed, "Don't I get to save the universe or become a Saiyan like you guys? Or even get to go into a whirlwind romance with one of the stars?"

The Long Haired Gohan just shook his head and chanted. The girl vanished and the Z group sighed in relief.

"She was so annoying." Vegita grumbled from the back.

"I know." Bardock fully agreed. "Where did she come from anyway?"

"You don't want to know." Long Haired Gohan replied, "Okay, I'll try it one more time. If this fails, I'll wait for a while and study this. Cross your fingers." The Long Haired Gohan chanted slowly and the others were praying that it will go right. After the flash of light, the group anxiously looked around and saw the Gohans still standing there with three other Vegitas standing there. Chibi Gohan gulped as he went behind Piccolo's leg. The first Vegita was in full Saiyan armor complete with a scouter. The second Vegita was wearing a Capsule Corps version of Saiyan Armor. And the third Vegita was wearing was wearing a black set of pants, a black tank top, a capsule corps jacket, and a mustache and a flat haircut.

"Where the hell am I?!" The Vegitas exclaimed at once.

The scouter wearing Vegita looked around and demanded, "If you don't tell me right now, I'll kill you all!"

Before anyone could react, Chi Chi came up and knocked the scouter wearing Vegita out in a single punch. Everyone gasped at the sight.

"You... you knocked Vegita out in one punch!" Chibi Gohan screamed in astonishment.

"Wow... I didn't know you had it in you." Krillian admired.

"Ha! After spending so much time with us, she would grow strong like that." Bardock boasted as he looked at the unconcious Vegita.

"Hey! You knocked me out, woman!" Cell Vegita boomed as he went Super-Saiyan and glared at her. Chi Chi simply stood there confident that her sons would protect her if something happened.

"Oh please! He deserved it!" The mustache Vegita said as he glared at Cell Vegita.

"No one has the right to knock me out like that! Especially that loud mouth woman!" Vegita screamed at the mustache Vegita as he went Super-Saiyan.

"Don't you dare insult Chi Chi like that! Chi Chi is a strong woman, especially since she has handled Goku and his brats quite well!" Mustache Vegita screamed as he went Super-Saiyan himself.

At once, there was silence as Gohan whispered, "Did that Vegita call Dad 'Goku'?"

"I did say he mellowed out somewhat in my time." Glasses Gohan commented as he rubbed his head.

"Oh man... what did I do?" The Long Haired Gohan moaned as he ran both his hands through his long mane.

"HOW DARE YOU CALL KAKAROT THAT NAME?!" Cell Vegita and Vegita screamed as they glared at him.

"Why not?" Mustache Vegita said.

"And what's with that stupid haircut and mustache?!" Cell Vegita and Vegita demanded at the same time.

"Okay... three Vegitas are two Vegitas too many." Yamcha concluded as he and the others slowly backed away from the three Vegitas.

"I like this! And you will too when you become me!" Mustache Vegita roared as he powered up. "I can take you both on! I am the most powerful Vegita here!"

"Yeah right!" Cell Vegita and Vegita chorused as they went into fighting positions.

"Run!" The Long Haired Gohan advised as he led the group out of the living room and slammed the door behind him. Sounds of punches and ki blasts emenate from the room. "Okay... we're in trouble."

"Four Vegitas on the same planet." Gohan figured, "Yup, we're in trouble."

Chi Chi sighed as she dropped the Vegita she knocked out. "Well... we have to stop them from fighting."

"How?" Cell Gohan asked, "It will take an army to take on three angry Super-Saiyan Vegitas. I guess we gotta stop them." Cell Gohan said as he looked at his counterparts. "Who's with me?"

Glasses Gohan, Gohan, Eighteen, Trey, and Long Haired Gohan rose their hands. "I'd like to join in but... I'd prefer to not die again." Krillian said as he waved his hands.

"I understand, Krillian." The Gohans chorused.

Chi Chi looked at Trey and asked, "Are you sure you want to join in? I know you're strong but you will be dealing with three Super-Saiyan Vegitas at once."

"Maybe, we don't have to." The Long Haired Gohan said as he chanted again. A bright light shone and the group gasped.

"Whoa... that is so awesome." Bulma said as her eyes lit up.

*****

The three Vegitas fought on. Cell Vegita was the weakest of the three, and so he was getting worn out. Regular Vegita was pounding on GT Vegita the hardest and ignoring Cell Vegita since he might alter the present. And GT Vegita held back somewhat on his past counterparts so all of them were only suffering minor injuries.

Then, they heard a chorus of voices that sent chills down their spines.

"VEGITA! STOP FIGHTING RIGHT NOW!" Three Bulmas chorused as they marched forward.

The three Vegitas gulped as they stared at the Bulmas.

"How could you?" Cell Bulma chided as she yanked on Cell Vegita's ear. "We have to worry about Cell and here you are, fighting with yourself!"

"That's right!" Bulma chided as she yanked on Vegita's ear. "You should know better."

"Especially you!" GT Bulma growled as she yanked on Mustache Vegita's ear.

"But he started it!" The Vegitas chorused as they pointed to each other.

"No excuses!" The Bulmas screamed, "Now apologize; right now!"

The Vegitas grumbled and finally the Mustache Vegita said, "I'm sorry for attacking you."

"Good. Now you." Bulma said as she glared at the other two Vegitas.

"Sorry." The two other Vegitas muttered.

"Thank you so much." The Long Haired Gohan said as he and the others came back into the living room. "I better send you back to your timelines before the Vegitas endanger the world."

"I won't endanger the world!" Mustache Vegita proclaimed, "I like Earth."

"Oh brother! How will I end up being a planet loving sissy like him?" Vegita exclaimed, "And where did you get that goofy haircut?"

"I like this haircut!" Mustache Vegita insisted.

The three Vegita growled and the fourth Vegita moaned as he started to regain conciousness. Chi Chi saw him and knocked him out again.

"Get us out of here now." GT Bulma whispered to the Long Haired Gohan.

"Gotcha." The Long Haired Gohan chanted and all of the Bulmas and Vegitas, except for one Bulma and one Vegita remained.

"That was close." The Gohans sighed in relief.

"Tell me about it." Bulma sighed and then slapped Vegita on the head. "And what's the idea of picking a fight with... you?!"

"He looks stupid with that haircut and mustache! And he's such a softie! He even called Kakarot 'Goku'." Vegita ranted.

Piccolo looked over at the Long Haired Gohan and said, "You better be more careful next time. You might accidentally summon someone more dangerous or annoying next time."

"Right." Long Haired Gohan nodded as he wiped his brow and chanted again.

In a bright light, three namekians appeared. One was a female looking Namekian wearing a long black fighters outfit, another was a male with a blue shirt and a yellow pair of pants, and the third one was a male wearing a business suit and glasses, identical to Glasses Gohan.

"Oh swell." Piccolo moaned as he rubbed his head.

The glasses wearing namekian and Glasses Gohan stared at each other and said at once, "You're me! I'm you!"

"Great, that's just what we need, another Gohan." Vegita grumbled.

"How did you become a Namekian?" Gohan asked as he sweatdropped.

"Long story." Namekian Gohan replied as he looked at the the female Namekian and exclaimed, "Mom?!"

"Gohan?" Namekian Chi Chi asked as she looked around. "Where am I? Who are you?"

"I'm Torakak. We must have been summoned into this dimention." Torakak replied.

"Send them back. Now." Chi Chi ordered the Long Haired Gohan.

"I'll try. Hold on." The Long Haired Gohan said as he summoned the rest of his strength and the three Namekians vanished.

"How did I become that Namekian?" Chi Chi asked as she held her head.

"Alternate universe. I've seen them all." The Long Haired Gohan replied as he sat down on a recliner.

"Okay! That's it! No more summoning now!" Piccolo ordered.

"Hai..." Long Haired Gohan agreed as he sweatdropped. He wiped his brow and said, "I'm exhausted anyway from all that spell casting. I need to rest."

"Why don't we go out for a while? Clear our heads?" Gohan suggested helpfully.

"That sounds like a reasonable idea." Glasses Gohan said as he rubbed his chin. "I wouldn't mind seeing the old high school again." He smiled slightly, "Even if it's in an alternate past universe."

"I wanna see this high school myself. Since I might go there in six years." Cell Gohan commented.

"Me too... I'm kinda curious." Chibi Gohan said.

"Well... okay! But there might be some students still hanging around and they are a little odd." Gohan said and then Videl facefaulted.

"You think that some of the other students are a little odd?!" Videl exclaimed, "Like who?"

"Erasa and Sharpener." Gohan, Glasses Gohan, and Long Haired Gohan replied at the same time.

"And Kai Shi." Gohan said as he sweatdropped. "That girl has that aura around her... kinda spooky."

"And you think that they are odd?" Videl asked as she sweatdropped.

"Yeah. I mean... all those other teenagers are a little weird... but I guess that's just part of being a teenager!" Gohan exclaimed cheerfully.

"And you are normal compared to them?" Videl asked.

"Of course!"

Trey snickered at the look on Videl's face. "And well... Trey and Yamcha are the most normal guys there too." Gohan added as Videl facefaulted.

"Thanks, Gohan!" Trey exclaimed.

"Yeah... I think." Yamcha said as he grinned nervously.

"I give up!" Videl moaned as she tossed up her hands.

"Don't feel too bad, Videl." Chi Chi said as she came up and patted Videl on the shoulder. "Gohan is as naive as his father."

"Yeah, he is." Glasses Gohan said as he patted his younger counterpart on the head. "But give him a few years. He'll come through." He winked at Videl who blushed.

"Oh... let's just take these Gohans on a tour before something else happens." Videl said as she held her head.

"We better get them ready first." Chi Chi said as she crossed her arms and glared at the Long Haired Gohan. "Especially, you, Gohan! You need a haircut!"

"I'm fine, Mom." Long Haired Gohan moaned, "Besides, my hair is very tough."

"At least change your clothes. We'll find something." Chi Chi said as she looked around at the other Gohans, who gulped. "Let's see... I know that my Gohan doesn't need anything... and the one in the suit is fine... but the others..."

"And we better give this Gohan a disguise. Someone might recognize him from the Cell Games." Bulma suggested as she gestured to Cell Gohan. "Unless you can get out of Super-Saiyan form for a while."

"I better not." Cell Gohan shook his head. "I need to stay Super-Saiyan all the time for my training."

"Here..." Chi Chi picked up a nearby ball cap and placed it on Cell Gohan's head. The cap popped off of his head and landed on the floor.

"Super-Saiyan hair has a mind of it's own." Glasses Gohan figured, "The energy in the hair is very strong."

"We can't let this Gohan go around like that. Someone will recognize him." Chi Chi exclaimed.

"I got it!" The Long Haired Gohan exclaimed as he snapped his fingers.

*****

"I feel stupid." Cell Gohan moaned as he and the other Gohans came out wearing different clothes. Gohan and Glasses Gohan were wearing their normal clothes. Chibi Gohan was dressed in his old green scholars outfit. Cell Gohan was wearing his white chinese outfit with a motorcycle helmet and goggles over his face. The Long Haired Gohan finally came out wearing a jogging pair of pants and a sweatshirt to try to hide his muscular body.

"It's not that bad. At least you won't be recognized." Gohan comforted and then Cell Gohan glared at him.

"Shut up. I can't wait till I get the Cell Games behind me like you did." Cell Gohan moaned as he held his helmet. He was a Super-Saiyan, he didn't need a helmet for anything. Of course, he would be recognized if he didn't wear the stupid helmet and his mother would be mad at him.

Gohan looked down at the sharp comment. He know that he have a good self image but Cell Gohan had just insulted him. While most if not all people believe that the Cell Games were behind him, they were wrong. Every night, he would have nightmares about that horrible day and how his father won't come back. Trey seemed to understand him the best since his father had decided to train for another year or so after his own death. He didn't let the nightmares stop him though. He knew that his father wanted him to be cheerful and happy and that is what he will be.

Glasses Gohan and the Long Haired Gohan watched the exchange and knew what Gohan was feeling. They both had been through what he had went through and more. They both had their father come back to them but leave after a few short years to train Ubuu and then Goku would return only to leave for space after being reverted to a kid. Then Goku will return only to leave with the dragon to restore the Earth's people. Now they are both recovering from the loss again.

"Is everyone ready?" Gohan asked as he looked around.

"You bet!" The other Gohans said in unison.

"Good, I'm coming!" Chi Chi announced as she came forward. "There's no way I'm leaving my Gohans alone."

"I think we can take care of ourselves, Mom." Long Haired Gohan said as he stared at her.

Chi Chi scowled and pulled at the Long Haired Gohan's hair.

"Ow!" The warrior screamed.

"I don't care if you are older than me and can summon people from alternate dimensions! I'm still your mother and you will do as I say!" Chi Chi screamed as she stood on her toes for maximum affect.

The Long Haired Gohan gulped and backed away. "Y-Yes, Mom." He said as he sweatdropped.

"That goes for the rest of you too." Chi Chi said as she glared at the other Gohans.

"I might as well come." Piccolo sighed, "Keep you out of trouble."

After some deliberation, Chi Chi, Bardock, Piccolo, Goten, Trey, and Videl joined the Gohan group. Chi Chi held on to Piccolo. Videl held on to Gohan. Videl gasped as she clutched to Gohan's neck firmly. "We're so high up." She whispered as they flew to the city.

"Only a few hundred feet." Gohan said as he held on to the girl and smiled at her warmth.

Glasses Gohan and the Long Haired Gohan flew in the lead and saw Videl and Gohan. The two knew what the future holds in store for them. Or at least a possiblity of a future for them.

Finally, they landed at a convenient dark alley and came out.

"Okay, now be careful and stick together." Chi Chi warned, "We're in the city and there's no telling what might happen. There's alot of weirdos out there."

At once, Piccolo and the other warriors rose an eyebrow at Chi Chi's comment. "I think we can handle ourselves." Piccolo grunted as he smirked.

"It's this way." Gohan said as the group walked down the street and to the high school. There was a great deal of construction going on to rebuild the destroyed wall and there were a few people standing around.

Glasses Gohan looked at the wall and said, "I don't remember that wall being destroyed."

"It was destroyed when Tao Pai Pai attacked the school. Long story." Gohan said as he gestured. "This way. I can show you my classrooms!"

The group walked into the school and looked at the various awards cabinets and posters. There were Hercule posters everywhere, advertising the Tournament.

"Hey!" The group looked over to see Ms. Glish coming forward. "What are you doing here, Gohan, Trey, Videl?" She looked at the group and asked, "And who are all these people?" She looked at Piccolo and the Long Haired Gohan and giggled. "And these two?"

"Oh..." Gohan slapped himself on the head when he realized he can't call all of his counterparts 'Gohan'. It might look too odd. "Well... this is my mom, Chi Chi, my sensei Piccolo, my cousin Bardock... this is my little brother Goten..." He trailed off as he looked at his counterparts, not sure what to say next.

"And this kid over here is Little Gohan, named after our Gohan." Videl added on helpfully as she smiled hesitantly. **I can't believe I'm doing this.**

"Yeah!" Gohan grinned as he gestured to Cell Gohan, "And this is... Kakarot." He looked at his older counterparts and said as he pointed to Glasses Gohan, "And this is... eh... Uncle Guru and the guy with the long hair is Uncle Raddiz."

The Long Haired Gohan glared at his younger counterpart but didn't say anything.

Ms. Glish gasped as she looked at the two older Gohans. "You two are brothers?" She asked, "You don't look that alike."

At once, the Gohans facefaulted and Long Haired Gohan and Glasses Gohan sweatdropped and Glasses Gohan said, "Well... we were raised differently. In reality, we're twin brothers."

"Oh..." Ms. Glish giggled as she looked at the group. "Well... just be careful. No telling what kind of weirdos roam the school at this time."

"I'm sure we can take care of ourselves." Piccolo smirked.

"Okay." Ms. Glish bowed and walked away.

"I hope I don't have to go through that again." Gohan sighed as the group walked on. "And this is my locker..."

"Gohan!" Erasa gushed as she came up wearing her cheerleaders outfit. "What are you doing here?"

"Oh... just touring the school with my family." Gohan said as he gestured to his friends and family.

Erasa's jaw dropped as she looked at all the Gohans. "Wow... you look so identical." Erasa said as she gazed at the Long Haired Gohan. "And you... you're so... hunky." She giggled as the Gohan she was gazing at fidgeted.

"Leave him alone." Chi Chi warned as she glared at the blond.

"Eek! Gohan's mother!" Erasa trembled as she inched to Gohan. "I... ah... gotta get going!" She dashed down the hall leaving the confused group behind.

"I did it again." Chi Chi moaned, "Why are people so afraid of me?"

"Well... most people find it hard to forget that time that you knocked out our science teacher." Trey commented as he crossed his arms.

"That idiot deserves it! How dare he calls me an 'alien'?!" Chi Chi ranted, "No offense, Bardock, but I'm a human being!"

"Maybe, we should start heading home..." Gohan suggested as he looked at the group. "I mean... we don't want to attract any more unwanted attention."

"That's a great idea." Cell Gohan said as he scratched under his helmet. "My helmet itches."

"We can head back to Capsule Corps for something to eat... I'm starving!" Gohan said as he rubbed his stomach.

"Me too!" The other Gohans agreed in unison.

Videl leaned next to Trey and whispered, "I think I've been hanging around you guys too much, now, I don't mind it."

"You adapt fast." Trey commented as he nodded.

*****

"Okay...now I've seen everything." Krillian commented as he and the others watched the Gohans in the kitchen eating enough to feed a small country.

The Gohans, except for Glasses Gohan who was eating at a normal human speed, were gulping down food by the handful. The cook droids were going around at super speed cooking as the Saiyans were eating. Videl founded herself almost lost for words as Gohan were eating an entire meatball sub sandwich whole. "How can you eat so much?!" Videl screamed, causing the other Gohans to pause and looked at her.

Gohan gulped and replied, "I have great metabolism."

"You're eating enough to feed an army." Videl commented as she gestured at the empty plates.

"He's a growing boy." Chi Chi said as she put down more plates.

"What about those two?" Videl asked as she gestured to the two adult Gohans.

"Saiyans have natually high metablolisms. It's the side effect of having to produce so much energy." Glasses Gohan replied, "The younger versions of myself need more energy to grow and develop, even my teenage counterpart."

"I've been training for a long time so my appetite grew." The Long Haired Gohan replied.

Videl just stared at the Gohans with wide eyes and then saw that everyone else was just staring but didn't act surprise. With a defeated sigh, she sat down and asked, "Do you have any more surprises?"

"Not really." Gohan said and then a glass shattered. Everyone looked to see Cell Gohan with a shattered glass in his hand.

"Oops." Cell Gohan said as he reached and got another glass. As soon as he had a firm grip, it shattered. "Oh man... I hate it when that happens."

"Relax, kid." Gohan said, "I had the same problem when I was you. Just focus your power away from your hands."

Cell Gohan nodded and picked up another glass and it shattered. "Oh no." The Super-Saiyan started to pick up the shards only to accidentally hit the table and break it in two. The other Gohans stood up and backed away from the table.

After a few moments, Cell Gohan stood at a ruined table. He looked at Bulma and said, "Sorry about your table and the dishes."

"Hey! No problem! I have some spares. After all, Vegita here has a habit of breaking tables himself." Bulma said as she called for another table.

"Maybe you should revert from your Super-Saiyan form." Glasses Gohan suggested, "It is being a hindrance right now."

"No way!" Cell Gohan's golden aura flared around him. "I can't stop training! You are all me! You should know how important this battle is to me and to my world! I have to make sure that this great future happens so I have to be at my toughest!" Tears ran Cell Gohan's face as the older Gohans remembered how hard it was for them when they were him. Cell Gohan was only eleven and he had to save the world. No boy deserved that responsibility. Chi Chi wept as she reached out and held the boy in her arms.

"Was Cell this deadly?" Chibi Gohan asked Gohan.

Gohan only nodded as he remembered his own Cell battle. The way he felt power and was so arrogant that his father would die because of him. "Yeah... he's that deadly."

"But... won't Daddy save us like he usually does?" Chibi Gohan asked as the older Gohans started remembering their battles with Cell. The pain and guilt of losing their father.

"He does. He will save us... but..." Gohan's eyes teared up as Trey quickly grabbed Gohan by the hand and led him away.

**Not here. Not in front of your past versions.** Trey telepathically spoke as he looked Gohan in the eye.

"Excuse me." Gohan ran off leaving the other Gohans behind.

*****

Gohan flew out of the compound and into the air. He didn't even bother changing into Saiyanman. Why should he? Saiyanman was just a way for him to get to school and back without attracting attention. He was also a crimefighter but he won't help him now.

Finally, he landed in the desert ontop of cliff. It dawned on him that it was the same place he trained with Piccolo so many years ago. The sun had set and the air was cold. Gohan flared out his aura and let it warm his body. "Oh, Dad." Gohan whispered as tears came down his face.

"It hurts, doesn't it?"

Gohan turned around to see Glasses Gohan standing over him, he slung his jacket over his shoulder as he sat on his hunches. "I thought you might come. I mean... I would too..." Gohan said as he looked down. "It's not fair. It's my fault."

"No... it wasn't." Glasses Gohan urged, "You... we were just kids. The power we experienced was overwhelming. It was much like giving a powerful weapon to an eleven year old... the power was too much for us to handle mentally."

"Does the guilt ever go away for you? Did you ever feel the same after the Cell Games?" Gohan whispered as he stared at his older counterpart.

Glasses Gohan sighed as he shook his head. "No... no battle ever leaves my mind... I still remembered Namek... Cell... others... each battle was hard for me. Despite the fact that there were few casualities due to the Dragon Balls, it still hurts. But we all moved on. You did and so will that kid back there. Besides, you have that Trey with you and Videl too. They will help you through if you let them." Glasses Gohan smiled confidently, "Especially Videl."

"After Dad died, I tried to be cheerful and upbeat again. Like Dad would want me to be." Gohan explained as tears kept on running. "Goten and Mom needed me and now so do Bardock and Trey. I... don't know how to deal with this much responsibility."

"You can." The Long Haired Gohan said as he came up and sat on the cliff. "Trust me, we all suffered responsibility that we don't want. Yet, we carry it and we mature."

"I still can't believe that I'll grow up to be you two." Gohan said as he looked at the two. "I mean... it's just... no offense..."

The two older Gohans smirked at each other. "Time plays tricks on us." Long Haired Gohan commented, "Of course, there's a chance that you won't grow up to be like us. I don't remember knowing a Trey in my timeline."

"Yeah..." Gohan grinned, "I could end up being something different. Kinda glad that the future is still strange to me."

"That's right..." Glasses Gohan nodded along with the Long Haired Gohan.

"Hey, guys." Cell Gohan said as he flew up carrying Chibi Gohan. "Mom was getting worried about you."

"We're fine." Gohan said as he grinned, "Are you okay?"

"I'm better now. Sorry about snapping like that." Cell Gohan said as he looked down.

"That's okay. We all know you didn't mean it." Glasses Gohan said as he looked at the landscape. "I haven't been here in years."

"It sure looks nice." Cell Gohan said as he and Chibi Gohan sat with the other Gohans.

"This is where... Piccolo trained me." Chibi Gohan whispered as he looked at the landscape.

"It hasn't changed that much in the years." Glasses Gohan said as he took of his glasses. "Some things don't. Like us. Despite our obvious differences in both age and experience, we still end up here on our own."

"Yeah..." Chibi Gohan said as he grinned. "I can't wait to get my Piccolo back!"

"You'll do a good job." Cell Gohan said, "And... I know that I can defeat Cell. My Dad will be with me and we will defeat him together!"

The older Gohans nodded, knowing how true Cell Gohan's statement will be. "And I'll get to the bottom of these supervillianesses!" Gohan vowed, "And graduate high school!"

"I will raise my family in a normal setting... my daughter will go Super-Saiyan!" Glasses Gohan vowed.

"And I will return to my wife and family." The Long Haired Gohan vowed.

"I CAN DO IT!" The Gohans chorused as they rose their fists in the air.

*****

Videl stood outside of the complex as the stars came out. She sighed as Trey came up with a coffee cup in his hand. "Mocha latte?"

"What ever happens to normal coffee?" Videl grunted as she held her forehead. "Sorry? Just... a long day. Do you... always have days like these?"

Trey shrugged as he leaned against the wall. "No... this day is a little weirder than the usual."

"All those Gohans, except for the kid seemed so upset about the Cell Games." Videl smiled ironically and added, "All my life, I thought the Cell Games were just a bad battle in which in the end... everyone who was dead was miraciously brought back to life... there were little consequence to that day except a destroyed ring. Gohan was hurt more than this than he lets on. Doesn't he?"

Trey nodded. "Yeah. It hurts like that. Especially since no one, except for a few, knew of Goku's sacrifice. No one knew that there was two permanent casualties that day; Goku and Cell. Tien warned me about the consequences of being a defender, especially with the other Saiyans who are far stronger than the humans. I know that if I chose this path, I will most likely die at least once in my life."

"At least once in your life?" Videl repeated almost awestruck.

"Long story." Trey stared upwards.

"Then, why do you fight even if your father won't approve?" Videl asked.

Trey smiled as he watched the vast stars over him. "Because... Gohan needs me and I have a great responsibility to the world because of the power I was blessed with. Tien wasn't there for me when I needed him and I'll be damned if I will admit that he's right and I'm wrong."

"Oh..." Videl looked up. "Will I ever be as strong as the you and Gohan?"

"It's possible, you have great potential. You also have... a charisma with the public. People trust you. They love you." Trey sighed as his third eye closed for a second. "That's a great power within itself."

Videl smiled slightly. "I'd rather fly and do those hand blasts."

"That's possible." Trey commented.

"Tomarrow, I'm going to start training my hardest." Videl looked at Trey and vowed, "I will beat my father and prove myself."

Trey only nodded and stood straight up. "Looks like Gohan and the others are coming back."

Videl stared as she strained her eyes at the night sky. "How can you see them? I know that you have great eyesight with that third eye..."

"Sensing power is another thing you will learn." Trey said as the Gohans landed. "Are you okay?" Trey asked Gohan as he let Chibi Gohan go.

"I'm better. We kinda... cheered ourselves up." Gohan explained as he grinned.

"I think we should try to get back to our own dimensions." The Long Haired Gohan suggested. "Let's go inside."

*****

"Are you sure you're ready to leave, Gohan?" Chi Chi asked the other Gohans after they changed into their regular outfits.

"I'm sure, Mom." The Long Haired Gohan said as he stared at his mother. "We all have to get back and do what we have to do."

"Yeah. I'm sorry, Mommy." Chibi Gohan whispered, "I gotta go to Namek."

Chi Chi picked up her son and hugged him. "That's okay... I know that Bulma and Krillian will be with you." She kissed him on the cheek and said, "I never said it to you before you left on that crazy space mission, but I'm proud of you, Gohan. You are a very strong boy to go through what you went through... and will go through. I love you, Gohan, all of you and always will."

"Oh... Mommy!" Chibi Gohan wailed as he hugged his mother fiercely.

The other Gohans watched and somewhat become teary-eye themselves. They all loved their mother deeply.

"It's okay..." Chi Chi cooed as she gently let her son go, "Krillian and Bulma will need you."

"Too bad we didn't do more." Goten said as he came up to Chibi Gohan. "It still was cool having a little brother for a change."

"Yeah!" Chibi Gohan and Goten hugged.

"I'm a little nervous about battling Cell." Cell Gohan said as he came up to Gohan.

"You'll do fine..." Gohan said as he clasped his hand on Cell Gohan's shoulder. "Just do your best."

"I'll try." Cell Gohan nodded.

"I know you will." Gohan grinned back.

Glasses Gohan came up to Trey and said, "Trey, take it from me, I have a daughter who was stubborn like you. I didn't really want her to fight to save the world but she did so anyway. I am proud of her and your father may be proud of you. Won't you talk to him?"

Trey sighed as he nodded. "I'll think about it."

"Good." Glasses Gohan nodded.

"Are we all set to go?" The Long Haired Gohan asked.

"Not yet!" Bulma said as she came in with a camera. "Why not take a few pictures to remember you guys by?"

"Sure!" The Gohans replied as they grinned.

After taking the pictures, The Long Haired Gohan rose his arms. Suddenly, a giant portal appeared. "I think this is it." The Long Haired Gohan said as he looked in to see his training grounds in the Next Dimention. "Yes!"

Each Gohan looked in to see the place where they left, except for Gohan who saw nothing more than a blank hole. "Who goes first?" Gohan asked.

"I'll go first." Glasses Gohan volunteered when he saw Chibi Gohan trembling.

"Say hi to my future grandbaby for me!" Chi Chi said as she waved.

"Gohan." Piccolo came up and clasped his hand on the man's shoulder. "I will find a way to save the Dragon Balls."

Glasses Gohan nodded and smiled, wondering how much of this adventure will he remember. He ran in and vanished.

"Next!" The Long Haired Gohan said.

"I'll go!" Cell Gohan volunteered as he stepped back.

"Good luck with Cell!" Chi Chi sighed as she watched her Super-Saiyan warrior going off to battle.

Cell took a deep breath and then said to Gohan, "Say hi to Dad for me when he comes back!" Before Gohan could respond, Cell Gohan ran into the portal and vanished.

"I guess... this is it..." Chibi Gohan gulped as he inched to the portal. Of all the Gohans, he was the most nervous. What if something happens to him? What if he vanished to a nightmare dimention? He want to go home so much.

"You can do it, Mini me." Gohan said as he patted the boy on the head. "Just run in."

"Oh-okay." Chibi Gohan gulped and then he focused to remain brave. He had to go to Namek and bring back Piccolo.

"Hey, kid!" Piccolo spoke up and Chibi Gohan looked at him. The warrior grinned and said, "I'll see you on Namek."

Chibi Gohan smiled slightly as he did a 'V' sign. He looked at Videl and said, "Hey! Wouldn't it be funny if my future wife is Videl?" At once, everyone facefaulted and before anyone could respond, Chibi Gohan ran in laughing.

"Oh boy..." The Long Haired Gohan sighed as he rubbed the back of his head. "It's my turn." He said as he looked around. "I'm sorry for all the trouble I caused you."

"Hey! It's no trouble at all!" Gohan exclaimed, "In fact, it was kinda fun meeting so many mes."

"Personally, this experience is weird... but I guess I should get used to it if I want to hang around here." Videl said as she looked at Gohan and blushed. **Me? Gohan's wife? I don't know...**

"You'll get used to it." The Long Haired Gohan said as he nodded.

"Gohan..." Chi Chi said as she came up and grabbed the man by the mane. "Please, cut your hair. You look too much like Raddiz."

The Long Haired Gohan nodded. "Yes, Mom. I'll cut it as soon as I get home..." He gazed at the group of people who he once knew and have known for a long time. He stared at Trey, one of the main differences in this Gohan's life. Maybe, Trey will make a good difference in the future. "Good luck in the future. You'll need it." He waved and ran through the portal. The portal collapsed and vanished.

"Well... looks like they're finally gone." Vegita grunted. "They were getting very annoying."

"I don't think they're so annoying." Chi Chi commented.

"True, but you weren't attacked by that mini Gohan." Vegita growled as he turned away. "I'm going off to train. I need to get this fiasco out of my system."

"We better get going as well." Bardock said as he came forward. "We have a long day ahead of us and it's getting late."

"Thank you, Bardock." Chi Chi nodded, "We must get going. There's school tomarrow."

*****

After saying their goodbyes, everyone parted the Capsule Corps, except for Bulma and her family.

Videl sighed as she landed her helicopter at the port and entered her mansion. It seemed much emptier and duller than this morning for some reason. Her father still hadn't returned from his tour and the servants keep their distance from her sometimes.

She opened the door and got out a glass of milk. She couldn't help but think about today and how insane the world seemed. Yet, it seemed somewhat wonderful to be part of something so different and unique. All her life, she had led a sheltered life. She grew up thinking that she knew the world and that her father would always protect her. Where's her father now? And how much of the world does she really know?

The girl stood up and went to the desk and wrote a letter. Then, she went upstairs and took a bunch of clothes and other stuff she needed and capsluized them.

Finally, she put the note on the refrigerator door where she know someone will find it. Then, she left the house in the middle of the night and flew off in the helicopter.

On the refriderator door, the letter was seen and it read:

Dear Dad,

I'm leaving to do some traveling on my own. Don't worry, I'll still go to school. I have some... alternate means of transportation. I'll withdraw some cash and take plenty of capsules.

I just want to train for the Tournament on my own... like some of the other warriors do. I'll come back when I need to.

Your Daughter,

Videl

To Be Continued...
