Chapter three: dark alleys and announcements

 

Videl was making it to school on time. Luckily, there was no crime that required her attention yet that day. When she got to school, however, the reporters were there, ready to get her and her dad who would be there later that day. `Geez, don't they ever take a break from interviewing my dad and me? I swear, they need a new hobby. My life isn't that interesting.' thought Videl, as she tried to inconspicuously land her jet copter. Unfortunately, the reporters saw her, and the reporters ambushed her for the second time that day.

 

When she finally made it to class, her class, most of which wearing “Mr. Satan” merchandise, met her. She had to give all the details for the drawing, and she also had to try not to hurt all of the reporters that would walk into the classroom to get her opinion on the drawing. Of course, she had an “opinion” memorized. It was, “I think that it is a great idea to have help from another person that is willing to have to live at the Satan mansion.” But, that wasn't her real opinion. If she had her way, then there would be no drawing, ever. But, that was what her dad said to say to the reporters that asked.

 

Meanwhile, with Gohan:

 

He grabbed his books, and headed out the door. He immediately took to the skies, and after a minute of flying, he pressed his Saiyaman watch. He arrived to the city rather early, and he saw that there was no crime. He made it to school a good ten minutes earlier than he thought he would have, so, he took his time to get to class, as opposed to his regular running thought the halls to get to class in time. He noticed the reporters everywhere, and he came to the conclusion that they were there to get the “scoop” on the upcoming drawing.

 

When he got to class, he noticed that Videl was trying to stay out of sight, as if that was possible. Everyone was bugging her about the drawing, and the teacher ended up having to start class early to keep the students from bugging Videl anymore.

 

Meanwhile (AN: don't I love that word?), on the outskirts of the city:

 

“Boss, is it time?” asked the shortest one.

 

“No, not yet, Dodrian. We still have to wait for the idiot to make his appearance. We don't want to…spoil the surprise”, said the second tallest of the group, apparently the leader.

 

“Boss, how long do we have to wait? I've been waiting to bash that arrogant fool to the next dimension”, said the tallest one.

 

“Gorsa, there is no need to be hasty. You will get your chance to get to him. Remember, patience is a virtue. And, we don't want to scare him away from our trap, now do we?” asked the leader, smooth-talking as ever.

 

“No, boss. I, Neftal, understand your way of thinking, unlike these idiots you surround yourself with”, said the middle-height guy.

 

“So, what do you think, Luciar?” asked the leader to the second shortest of the group.

 

Luciar did not answer, but his yellow eyes flashed a bright color, letting the others that he was in on the plan. The group was to stay in the dark alley that they were in until they knew that their target was inside their trap.

 

Meanwhile, at OSH:

 

Gohan was trying to pay attention to the teacher, but he was too worried about Videl to do a very good job at it. Videl looked like her like was about to end, even though she was using all of her abilities of acting to her advantage.

 

The day went on like that, until it was time for the assembly. Videl tried to stay with her friends, but her dad had insisted that she would stay with him. The entire school was gathered in the gym, when Hercule made his appearance. The crowd of students cheered, and every major news channel had a reporter to film the announcement, so that it really could be a contest for the entire world. Hercule started his speech talking about himself, but eventually, he made it to the point. He discussed to rules and how the physical condition of the students would be judged.

 

Rules:

 

All contestants must be between the ages of thirteen and twenty-five at the time of their signing up.

 

The contestants must be willing to sign and uphold a “Secrecy” statement—meaning that the contestants can't tell the public the “secrets” of Hercule's training procedures.

 

The contestants must receive at least a 50 on the scale (which will be described later)

 

The contestants cannot have a criminal record

 

Judging the condition of the contestants:

 

 

The physical condition of the contestants will be judged by the contestant's strength by punching a punching bag that has a “power reader” on it. Hercule gets a 200 when he punches it, and he wants those that he will possibly to get at least a 50 on it. There will be one or more at each of the signing up stations.

 

Back to Hercule:

 

Hercule also said that they would take all the names for a month, and then have the drawing. At this point, Hercule had run out of things to say, other than brag about himself, so he had Videl come up, and have her say something about the contest. She said, “I just hope that no one that I hate will be the one that wins the contest.” She immediately sat down after that.

 

Outside of OSH:

 

The group of five was planning the last part of their evil scheme. They were hiding in the shadows, but their appearance was clear now. Dodrian, the shortest, had pale blue skin. His attitude was sort of like that of the henchmen that do what ever the master tells them to do. The next shortest was Luciar. He was wearing a black hooded robe, sort of like what you would expect from the Grim Reaper, except, you could see his extremely pale skin and his piercing yellow eyes. Neftal, the medium-heighted guy, had black hair and dark purple skin. He also had fangs that glistened in all possible light. The tallest, Gorsa, was all about his strength. He had dark brown skin, and was a good head above most people.

 

The leader was a lot different from the rest of the team. He looked like a normal person—no fangs or weird colored skin. He was wearing a suit with a red tie—very businesslike.

 

The group headed out of the shadows, and headed into the school.

 

With Gohan:

 

He was waiting for Hercule to just finish up with his speech. He was taking way too long. And then, he heard it—screams. He wasn't used to hearing screams, but he knew the sound. He wondered what was happening, so he focused see if there was any strong ki in the area. He found four rather high kis, and one that seemed too calm for being in the area that he was in. Then, he felt a few kis just disappear. `Death', he thought, `they died'. Gohan wanted to just get up and leave, but the teachers had already made it evident that no student was to leave the gym until Hercule is done speaking, no matter what.

 

Gohan just wanted to go up and attack Hercule so that he could stop talking, but he knew that wouldn't be a good idea. So, hard as it was, Gohan had to wait until later to check up on the direction that the screams were coming from. But, he had a feeling that it was going to be too late.

 

Meanwhile, with the five evil “people”:

 

Gorsa had satisfied his need to kill when he blew a few of the people in the office to smithereens. Of course, he still wanted to kill Hercule, but at least now he wasn't quite as eager. Neftal was waiting with his sword, but he wasn't going to use it because of his Honor Code, which clearly stated that he wasn't to kill anyone that was so weak that their death wasn't worth his time. Of course, Gorsa lived by no such thing.

 

“Gorsa, would you stop killing the poor people and let us get on with the next phase. We need to get to Hercule before he leaves, and besides, now he is at his weakest moment—in front of his adoring fans. Let's go deal with Phase B of our plans before he can get away”, said Neftal. The leader nodded, and the group was on their way to the gym.

 

END CHAPTER

 

So, what do you guys think about the evil dudes? I am still looking for ideas. I will try to use any and all ideas, within reason. Such as: I WILL NOT have any gay guys in any of my stories!!! Sorry if it offends people that I am saying this, but that is just wrong!!!!! Also, I won't have any lemons, so don't even suggest that! Also, I will not attempt to mess with the time stream that much in this story. I might bring back Marai Trunks, but that's about it.

 

My stories will try to remain easy to understand, but sorry if so far I've lost you. Ask me to explain anything, and I will to the best of my ability, though it might not be the best explanations.

 

`Till next time. SEE YA!!!!
