Gohan looked at his father straight in his eyes. Goku saw the face that was so full of hatred. He instantly recognized the face, and dropped Gohan. Gohan fell to the ground, still coughing up blood.
Goku saw Videl and Pan run up to Gohan.
"DADDY/GOHAN!" They both yelled. Videl and Pan hugged him. Videl kissed his bloody lips, not caring if they were bloody. Pan was on top of Gohan's shoulders.
"Hey love. Hey little one. What are you doing here?" He asked his family.
"I saw that evil man beat you up daddy, and.and." Pan said, starting to cry. Gohan smiled. He kissed his daughter's forehead, and his wife on her lips.
"Let's go home. I don't need any of these things or people. I can't wait to finally eat!" Gohan laughed. Videl leaned her head on his chest. They started to walk off.
Goku fell to his knees. He knew it had to be Gohan. And his son hated him and everyone that had ever cared about him. But why? Was there something that someone wasn't telling him? He obviously didn't hate everyone. He got up and ran after his son, but Chi-chi got there first.
"My poor Baby! Where have you been! I've been worried sick about you!" She cried. He went to hug Gohan, but Gohan slapped her hands away from him.
"Get the hell away from me." Gohan ordered her. Chi-chi stared at him in fear.
"What happened to my sweet baby boy? Where's the old sweet Gohan I used to know?" Chi-chi cried.
"That Gohan died a longtime ago. Now get out my way, or I WILL hurt you, just like you hurt me!" Gohan told his mother, starting to get tears in her eyes.
"Son,
how did I hurt you? Talk to me! Tell me how!"' Chi-chi
cried.
"
No. I will tell no one of what I went through. .All the hell I went through trying to survive out there, on the street. I had no one that cared if lived or died. I had no one that cared if I had shelter over my head. I had NO ONE!" Gohan cried. Tears filled his eyes. Videl watched as her husband fell to the ground. He went unconscious.
"GOHAN/DADDY!" Videl and Pan cried in unison. They both went to his side. Pan was crying, and Videl was starting to get tears.
"You stupid bitch! Look at what you did! Look at all the pain you caused him!" Videl cried.
"Oh why do you care? You just his friend! I'm his mother! I deserve more respect than that!" Chi-chi said, still crying herself.
"For
one, I'm not just his friend! I'm his wife! For two, you don't
deserve to even look at him!" Videl yelled.
Hercule
heard the commotion and ran to where Gohan lay.
"Videl, what's going on here?" Hercule yelled. Videl saw here father.
"Gohan just passed out daddy! These are his worthless parents1" Videl said, glaring at Chi-chi and Goku. Chi-chi was still crying, while Goku stare on with disbelief.
"Well, get him home. I'll talk to his parents myself!" Hercule commanded. Videl nodded and a stretcher came out and picked up Gohan and took him away; with Videl and Pan close behind.
Hercule walked over to where Gohan's parents were.
"Is it true?" Hercule asked Goku. Goku nodded. Chi-chi looked up.
"What do you have with Gohan?" Goku asked the Champ.
"Well, I took him in after I found him on the streets starving. He was angered. He was cold. He was sad. Everyone that had ever cared about him just abandoned him, and left him for the wolves. He was ding horrible things to stay alive, but luckily we found him when we did, or he would have been dead!" Hercule said, trying to be civil with Goku.
"He ran away from my friend Bulma who offered her home to him, so it was his fault!" Goku yelled. Bulma walked up.
"That's not true Goku. He stayed with us for about a month before Capsule Corp started to go bankrupt. I told him I could no longer take care him, so I denied him a place to live. He stayed with Krillin and his family after that, but they couldn't afford for him to live there either. And you know the rules on the lookout. So he had nowhere to turn. You guys just did abandon him. You had a chance to come back, but you were too worried with your training and the safety of the world instead of your own son's life. Your wife could have stayed, but chose to go with you instead. She too totally forgot about Gohan!" Bulma said, trying her best not to cry.
"What? How can you say I forgot about my own son! I thought about how he was doing everyday! He was always on my mind. I just thought for the time being one of my friends, whom have saved many times, would help him out for me. But looks like I can't trust any of you anymore!" Goku yelled, starting to get tears himself.
"I'm sorry Goku. But he's not my responsibility! You were never really there for him anyway! You were always training and worried about everyone else but him. He raised himself Goku!" Bulma yelled back. She was crying.
"Hercule, what do you mean horrible thins to survive?" Chi-chi asked, fearing the answer.
"I don't know why, but I'm going to tell you anyway. So you know what you put your son through. I'm talking about drug pushing, drug dealing, doing drugs, and selling himself for every penny he could get. He didn't eat but maybe once a week. He looked like a skeleton when I first met him. He did what he had to survive!" Hercule told the woman. Chi-chi cried harder, and did Goku and Bulma.
Videl lay by her husband. He still hadn't wakened up. Pan had cried herself to sleep. Videl looked at her husband, remembering that special day in the park. That had been her most special day in her life. Besides her wedding and when she gave birth to Pan.
"Remember that first day in the park? I do. I have the evidence sleeping right next to us, Gohan. We had been close before that, but that day, our bond was completed. We conceived our child, and pronounced our love for one another. I still love you Gohan, no matter what had happened in the past!" Videl said, getting more tears in her eyes.
It was then Gohan's eyes slowly opened. " but that day, our bond was completed. We conceived our child, and pronounced our love for one another. I still love you Gohan, no matter what had happened in the past!" Videl said, getting more tears in her eyes.
It was then Gohan's eyes slowly opened. He looked at Videl, who was crying softly by his side. He smiled.
"Why are you crying Videl? I'm not dead yet!" Gohan smirked. Videl looked up and her eyes widen.
"Gohan, you had me worried!" Videl cried. Gohan smiled and pulled her in for a kiss.
Then Chi-chi and Goku walked in through the door. Gohan stopped his actions and looked at them with anger and hatred once again.
"Son, before you make any drastic decisions or moves, give us a chance to talk." Goku asked his son.
"Why should I? You never gave me the light of day before. So why should I?" Gohan replied.
"GOHAN I DEMAND RESPECT! WE'RE YOUR PARENTS!" Chi-chi yelled. Pan was awakened because of the yelling.
"Papa… Are you okay?" Pan said, rubbing the sleep out of her eyes.
"Yes little one. I'm fine. Are you doing okay?" Gohan asked his daughter. She nodded.
"If you're okay, I'm okay Papa!" Pan cheered. She ran and jumped into Gohan's arms. H kissed her forehead and gave her a hug.
"Son, will you please let us talk?" Goku once again asked his son. Gohan sighed.
"Fine, since you've already woken up my daughter up. I will you the time to say what you have to say. But, once you've said what you need to say, you will get out of my life!" Gohan sneered.
"Fine. Listen son. Your mother and I. We're.." Goku drifted off. Gohan started to get tears in his eyes.
