I'm Gohan!

"Today's class ends here"

The teacher spoke, closing the book and a big sigh was heard in the room, it was a heavy class.

"Oh my gosh, did any of you understand anything?" Erasa looked at her friends, who denied.

"Don't lie, I saw you nodding to several things the professor said" Videl nudged Gohan.

"It's not a lie either," the boy responded.

The two girls just laughed at what Gohan said, Shapner just let out a huff of annoyance.

And the four of them left the class, going down the hallway. "I still can't believe that you were the one who defeated Cell" Erasa blurted out without further ado.

"Yes, but it's a secret" Gohan smiled nervously.

They saw him become Super Saiyan when he went out to fight Kibito during the tournament, it was a matter of connecting the dots to realize it.

"Okay, don't worry," Erasa winked at him.

"And how powerful are you?" Shapner asked.

"With luck I could erase a small town" Gohan pointed out and the two blondes were surprised.

'Shit, I underestimated him' Shapner thought nervously.

Videl laughed internally, because only the gun Gohan gave her could erase planets and suns.

Also, from what Gohan told, he also destroyed the entire universe 7, which was even terrifying with how immense it all was.

"Well, we're going that way, bye!" Erasa exclaimed smiling and dragged Shapner along.

Then, Gohan and Videl were left alone. And this had not happened since that night.

"Well...it's a great day," Gohan spoke, smiling nervously, 'Why did I say that?'

"Gohan, you don't have to... I'm over that, let's be normal friends" Videl smiled.

"It's true, I just don't want to hurt anyone else" Gohan said looking away.

"More? Aren't things going well?"

"They're going very well, don't mind me" Gohan replied, smiling, "And now you're going to train?"

"Nope, I have to eat at home first" Videl answered and looked at his watch, "I have to go now! Bye!"

"See you later," Gohan murmured. He felt somewhat happy, at least Videl looked pretty good.

Although he couldn't help but feel a little sorry, remembering his canonical counterpart that he was truly happy. This is to change history.

"Don't think too much, just enjoy"

Gohan turned when he heard that and saw an old man pass right by him, "Life is short, be happy and take advantage of it with your loved ones."

"Okay, I'll do it... Tori?" Gohan read the name he put on the old man's jacket and was confused. And just then his phone rang.

"Where are you?" that was 18's voice.

"Wow, it's true! I'm coming!" Gohan exclaimed and took to the sky, flying towards 18's house.

He just came in through the window and like hell he took off his class clothes and put on his orange gi and his blue boots.

And the reason for this is that together with 18 today he had to go visit Android 17 this day, since Lazuli recently recovered from her cold.

All thanks to Gohan's incredible medical care, he didn't leave the house all this time because of his girlfriend. And he just left for college today.

18 walked through the door then. And she was dressed in a crimson blouse and off-white jeans. She looked Gohan up and down.

"What? That's how I'm comfortable" Gohan defended himself.

"And so you said you dress better than me?" The android gave a mocking smile, turning around. Gohan was loading the answer.

"Of course, but you're an android, not a fashion expert," Gohan responded with a snort. 18 turned around, 'Ah, this is my end'

"Southern island" the blonde girl said without further ado.

"Okay" Gohan put two fingers on her forehead.

And 18 looked at her as if she had two heads.

"You know that they are both androids, and therefore have no life energy, right?" she asked mockingly and Gohan blushed like never before.

"How clever she is" the boy smiled deep down.

"Yeah, I was just scratching my forehead" Gohan excused himself.

"And no, I'm not going to fly, I don't want to get dirty or anything," 18 said, crossing her arms as a sign that she wasn't going to do it.

"How delicate the princess" Gohan mocked and tore the space creating a portal to the southern island, "Luckily, I, Gohan, am your boyfriend."

"Hm" 18 went to the portal, although he clearly couldn't deny that having Gohan as a boyfriend was advantage after advantage, any woman would die of jealousy.

Then, they both arrived at an island full of forests and animals, Gohan saw that place smiling, it looked a bit like Mount Paoz.

He remembered all the times he trained with his father there, and to think he spent more than a decade and a half since that. The years flew by.

"Gohan, what..." 18 was going to speak but then he felt his arm being pulled by, "CEELL!"

Gohan turned around in alarm when he saw how two Cell juniors took the android into the air.

"Let her go!" Gohan stood up for him when suddenly three Cell juniors simply surrounded him.

One Cell junior charged a Special Beam Cannon, another charged a Neo Tri Beam, and another a Yin-Yang Blast.

"Yaaaaaaa!" the three Cells threw everything.

An explosion occurred at the scene, and after the layer of smoke disappeared, Gohan emerged unharmed.

The three Cell juniors were scared and Gohan, without doing anything to them, flew away until he appeared in front of the two who were carrying the android.

"Were you going somewhere with my girl, you cockroaches?" Gohan asked with a demonic smile, squeezing his knuckle savagely.

"Aaahh!" A junior Cell did a great Solar Flare, blinding Gohan, but Gohan caught his arm forcefully, leaving Cell quite scared.

"Hide your Ki next time, green bug" Gohan kicked him in the jaw, sending him to the ground, "And you, get out of my sight now!"

Immediately Cell Junior released 18. Gohan took her in his arms, "Are you okay Lazuli?"

"I-it was nothing..."

For him, the Cell juniors were a game, but these far exceeded the level he had at 18 now.

"There was no need to be so harsh... they are children"

Gohan looked down, and there he saw Android 17.
