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,
prodding (the match-making harpies as Vegeta like to call them

and had managed to convince him to propose
to her.
His friends were happy for him when he and
him but said nothing else. Vegeta just glared and kept his mouth closed.

Not once did they ask the young half-Saiyan if this
was what he really wanted beyond a doubt.

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.

well but he had distanced himself from his
wife.
His marriage was a sham. He loved her, but Gohan

Gohan had just
arrived back from
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,
of
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 exist
was a wizard, so why not a whole world of magical beings
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
wand.
Snape was strong like his father and Vegeta
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
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

including him not being able to keep food in

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
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

to think about why he was sitting outside in the cold. So much time had passed

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.
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
