Chapter 7: Some Background Information
A rough three years had passed
since Mirai had left, but Gohan was doing a
little better. He had married Videl, after his mom and Bulma’s
prodding (the match-making harpies as Vegeta like to call them.) They figured that Gohan was depressed about his
relationship with Videl,
and had managed to convince him to propose
to her.
His friends were happy for him when he and Videl announced their nuptials. His father congratulated
him but said nothing else. Vegeta just glared and kept his mouth closed. While his mom and Bulma
were tickled pink that their hard work was coming to fruition, and couldn’t wait to plan the wedding.
Not once did they ask the young half-Saiyan if this
was what he really wanted beyond a doubt.
The happy couple, (as everyone believed
them to be) were expecting their first child in several months.
But Gohan… he was betraying his true love, Mirai.
Vegeta told him after Mirai had left that he wanted Gohan to be happy. Tossing
it over in his mind, Gohan didn’t think that he could do that, not without
Mirai at least. Nonetheless, Gohan understood why the older half-Saiyan left.
Mirai couldn’t abandon his mother. He would often talk about his mom and how he
sometimes missed her.
Mirai Bulma was all that
he had. Gohan accepted that.
Now, almost four years later, Gohan was as
miserable as ever. He was simply hiding his pain from everyone. Videl had begged and pleaded for them to start a family. It
was practically six months after their wedding before Gohan slept with Videl.
Two and a half years rolled on by after that before
they herald Videl’s pregnancy. He bonded to the baby
well but he had distanced himself from his
wife.
His marriage was a sham. He loved her, but Gohan
was not in love with Videl.
oOoOoOo
Gohan had just
arrived back from England
after helping his father and Vegeta with some legal matters. Apparently, the
royal Saiyan couple had found another survivor of Planet Vegetasei by the name
of Severus Snape, a Potions professor at Hogwarts, School
of Witchcraft
and Wizardary.
A cousin of Vegeta’s had been living on earth with
no clue to what or who he really was. As it turned out, the full-blooded Saiyan
had been living as a wizard. As hard as it sounded, wizards and witches existed, including magic. Gohan wasn’t surprised though, considering that Bibidi
was a wizard, so why not a whole world of magical beings as well.
What Gohan found out about the man was that he
couldn’t cast ki
blasts; it was shocking for a Saiyan not to
be able to shoot an enemy, it was
unimaginable. The professor actually learned to channel his ki through the use of a
wand.
Snape was strong like his father and Vegeta, but his wasn’t a Super Saiyan. Plus, Vegeta told
Gohan that his cousin was also telepathic. Later, it was discovered that the
royal blood-line of Vegetasei through the females were telepathic and the males
were empathic. No wonder Vegeta and Trunks (Chibi and
Mirai) were able to ‘read’ people.
And to shock Gohan further, the older Saiyan was
mated to a werewolf.
Prior to Gohan traveling to England, the odd couple
came to Japan to hide out from a wizard bent on killing Snape and a young
teenager named Harry Potter. His father used his Instant Transmission to bring
them here to make sure that they would be safe for at least a little while.
Another revelation was that Snape’s mate was
pregnant just like Vegeta. But that didn’t matter; everyone received them with
open arms. The Z warriors even met their employer, an older gentleman by the
name of Albus Dumbledore.
For the few days that the teachers lived with him,
the professor retained his services as a lawyer. With everything that was
going-on, Snape told Gohan that he was going to need an attorney. Gohan drew up
a contract and was paid a small retainer’s fee in gold. That was enough for
Gohan to start his own law firm, purchase a house,
and still have money left over to live comfortably for quite a few
years; and that was merely a partial payment.
During his time at Hogwarts, Gohan found out that
he had a new born baby sister. Vegeta had given
birth while he and Goku were in England.
His new sibling looked like their father
with Vegeta’s features. Shingeta (what Vegeta named
her) was adorable. His dad and Vegeta were going to kill guys to keep them away
from her once she got older.
He was happy for his father and Vegeta.
After they had lost their first baby, Gohan thought that both Saiyans would die
from the grief; and Gohan blamed himself.
He couldn’t seem to get his act
together, Mirai’s leaving devastated him. Bulma
repeatedly told him that Vegeta miscarried because of his small body frame, and wasn’t getting enough rest, which
including him not being able to keep food in his stomach.
Somehow though, Gohan couldn’t believe
that was the real reason for the pregnancy to fail at nearly toward the end of
the gestation period.
Still, Gohan met up with Chibi and Bluma.
He had wondered what happened to them when Goten came
home saying that Trunks stood him up to go to the mall. His little brother was hurt by Trunks not calling or leaving a note to
inform him that he wasn’t able to go out.
The night before he was to go back home, Gohan had
a man to man talk with Trunks. He wanted his
intended’s counter-part to seize what was in front of him and not let it slip
through his fingers…
oOo Flashback oOo
Long lavender hair swayed
in the evening breeze. Trunks stood alone on top of the Astronomy tower. The
view below of the lake and dark Forest was breathtaking. The demi-Saiyan
heard the trap door of the tower open and close and Trunks
felt the familiar energy of his best friend’s brother.
“What brings you way up
here, Gohan?”
“I was wondering the same
thing about you. Why are you up here?”
Trunks shrugged his
shoulders. “Doesn’t matter,” he replied catching the light bursts of ki from the pitch.
“Hai,
it does.”
Trunks had plenty of time
to think about why he was sitting outside in the cold. So much time had passed
for him to think about his life. Being around his father and Goku showed him
what he was missing, or rather who he was
missing from his life.
“You should tell him about
how you feel, Trunks. Don’t let him slip through your fingers.”
Trunks was shocked when Gohan said that to him. “I don’t know what you’re
talking about, man,” he replied nervously.
“Don’t play dumb with me,
Trunks. I’ve known you far too long to know you’re not stupid—considering that
Vegeta is your dad. You know damn good and well who I’m talking about,” Gohan
vented. “I know what you’re going through.”
“How can you? You have who
you want! I can never be with him, so there’s no point in embarrassing myself.”
“That’s where you’re wrong.
I let the one person I could ever love walk out of my life without telling him
I love him. Knowing I will never see him again.”
Huh? Him? Gohan
wasn’t making any sense. He was happily married to Videl
with a baby on the way, so who could he possibly be
pining over?
Trunks couldn’t remember the older half-Saiyan dating anyone
except Videl, although there was a short time when they stopped seeing
each other when…
“Mirai,” he said softly, finally understanding.
Gohan cast his gaze to the
fading lights above the Quidditch pitch, leaning against the cold,
carved stone.
“Hai…Mirai. I realized I
loved him when Cell killed him. I was devastated…
All I could feel was the emptiness of losing him.”
Trunks didn’t remember any
of that happening. He was a baby at the time, but his mom told him all about
it. How Goku sacrificed himself to stop Cell
from blowing up the earth; and how it was Gohan
(a recently ascended Super Saiyan) who
ultimately destroyed Cell with Vegeta’s help.
Then his future self
revisited years later. Trunks noticed how Gohan was acting like a school girl
with her first crush, but he didn’t understand it at the time. Gohan broke-up
with Videl telling her that it would be best if they
didn’t see each other for awhile. Videl, however,
didn’t give up in her pursuit of the
handsome Saiyan.
Gohan left town for three
months with Mirai before anyone saw them again. Mirai stayed for a year, his
departure clearly breaking everyone’s heart— especially Gohan. Several months later, Gohan
and Videl married.
Trunks made up in his mind
that he wasn’t going to suffer like his friend.
“Thanks, Gohan. I guess I
just needed to see things from a different perspective.”
“No problem. Oh, and
uh…Trunks— if you ever hurt Goten, I’ll kill you,”
Gohan declared, leaving the future heir of
Capsule Corp. speechless.
Trunks once again looked
out into the darkness. He could no longer see the flashes of ki. The only sounds he could hear were crickets in the
quiet of the night.
oOo End flashback oOo
Shortly thereafter,
Trunks’ returned home to Japan and he made Goten his
mate. Gohan was jealous of his little
brother but at the same time, he was ecstatic that Goten
didn’t hesitate and accepted Trunks as a suitor.
Although his life was far from prefect, Gohan held
on to the hope that he would reunite with Mirai some day. He wanted what his
brother and father had, a mate to love.
oOo TBC oOo
A/N: How was that? Is it still going strong? I hope
so. So, now we’ve caught up to: Can they
make a difference? And the events that
happened after Interlude 3: Worlds Apart.
Does anyone want to know how Videl is feeling about
her husband not wanting her but someone else?
Well, stay tuned for the next chapter to find out.
If any one is wondering what Trunks and Gohan were looking at on the Quidditch
pitch please refer to Can They Make A
Difference? chapter 20: Realization.
