Gohan blinked at the look on Vegeta's face as Goku It'd out of the room. “What are you planning Vegeta?” Gohan asked Warily
 
“That's none of your concern Brat and you and the two younger Brats have to stay well out of site until tonight!” Vegeta ordered
 
“What for?” Gohan protested not liking the idea of being shut up in a room, for the rest of the day, after he'd been locked up in a cell, for the past couple of days.
 
Goku appeared with Bulma, Chichi, Goten and Trunks
 
“Half breeds are not except among the Saiyan race you're lucky no one picked up on it earlier or you would have been sentenced to death while in your weakened state.” Vegeta grunted
 
“Aw Man does that mean we're gonna have to hide!” Trunks whined
 
“Aw I wanted to go exploring,” Goten chimed in.
 
“Just stay out of sight until I tell you otherwise!” Vegeta growled and the pair fell quiet.
 
“Niko knows,” Gohan replied
 
“She's your grandmother and has always been soft hearted she won't turn you in,” Vegeta muttered and was going to say more but shut up as the seamstress and Tailor walked in the room with some of their colleagues.
 
“Oh my, were all of you here before your majesty?” The Seamstress asked seeing a couple of people she was sure weren't there before.
 
“Of course they were you imbecile!” Vegeta snapped
 
“Of Course your majesty I do apologise.”
 
Later that evening once the Tailors and seamstresses were finished measuring everyone up and had been given Seventeen's measurement by Bulma. Everyone sat around the room entertaining themselves.
 
Piccolo meditated in a corner, Trunks and Goten amused themselves with a portable video game and TV set that ran off a powerful battery while Erasa and Sharpner watched them, Chichi and Goku drifted off to sleep on the coach together, Vegeta sat on the window ledge staring out at his old home. And Videl sat off to the side watching Bulma and Gohan as they put Seventeen back together but not close enough to hear what they were saying.
 
Videl watched Gohan feeling the guilt in the pit of her stomach. *I can't believe I said those things to him, he probably thinks I hate him because he's half Saiyan. I don't though and I can't tell him cause he won't talk to me. Sigh. He hasn't said a word to me since we left those change rooms and that was hours ago.*
 
Gohan and Bulma were almost done, “Ok Gohan do you know where his memory chip is?” Bulma asked.
 
Gohan stiffened slightly, “Yeah,” *Videl's still got it but how can I ask her for that, she hates me … Maybe Bulma can get it for me…*
 
“Hello… Gohan you still in there?” Bulma asked waving her hand in front of his face.
 
“Wha… oh yeah sorry Bulma,”
 
“Well are you going to get it then?”
 
“Ah … Um … Yeah,” Gohan sighed.
 
Bulma watched in amusement as Gohan walked over to Videl and fidgeted nervously before softly clearing his throat to break her out of her daydream. *Why are you so nervous around her Gohan?* Videl's head snapped up and she looked at Gohan almost as nervously as he looked at her. *And why are you nervous too? Hmm I wonder what happened between those two they seemed to like each other a lot before. Oh well I'll just corner Gohan about it later.* Bulma thought
 
Gohan softly cleared his throat and Videl head snapped up to look at him. “Sorry I didn't mean to bug you; I just needed Seventeen's memory chip,”
 
“Oh Yeah sure,” Videl muttered as she dug into her pockets and handed Gohan the chip “Here,”
 
“Thanks,” Gohan said flashing her a small smile and headed back to where Bulma was.
 
“So what's wrong between you two?” Bulma asked as Gohan handed her the chip.
 
“Nothing,” Gohan answered quickly. To quickly.
 
Bulma just raised an eyebrow at him “Did you two have a bit of a fight or something?”
 
“Kind of,” Gohan sighed knowing that if he didn't tell Bulma know she'd just get him about it later.
 
“What do you mean kind of,” Bulma asked not taking her eyes off her work as she carefully began to place and re-connect Seventeen's chip.
 
“Well when they found out I was a Saiyan she reacted badly,”
 
“How badly?”
 
“She grabbed my tail sending me to my knees and screamed that I was one of them and probably thinks that I'm in on the whole scheme of them getting caught and everything. And the look on her face it was like she despised me.” Gohan replied and Bulma could hear how upset he was by the tome of his voice.
 
“Have you talked to her since?” Bulma asked
 
“No, the first thing I've said to her since was asking for Seventeen's memory chip,” Gohan replied.
 
“Well maybe that's your whole problem, you just need to talk to her,” Bulma said with a smile to try and cheer him up a bit.
 
“Ha, easier said then done,” Gohan muttered under his breath but Bulma still heard him.
 
Gohan closed up Seventeen's chest cavity while Bulma quickly closed his head cavity as Seventeen's eyes fluttered open.
 
“Erg, what happened?” Seventeen asked sitting up and cracking his neck.
 
Chichi who had woken up a few minutes ago looked over the back to the coach to see Seventeen “Well it's nice to see you all back in one piece,” Chichi said then yawned and stretched.
 
“Very funny,” Seventeen muttered dryly. Then realized who he'd just talked to, glancing around the strange room he noticed a lot of other faces that hadn't been there when he'd had his chip removed and he didn't even recognised where they were. “Ok someone really needs to catch me up on what's been happening coz I'm lost,”
