Goten opened his eyes and groaned as sunlight poured into his dorm room. Goten sat up in his bed and ran his hand through his short spiky black hair. He threw his blanket off of him and stood up on out of bed and walked over to his stereo. He hit a few buttons and music started to play as he walked into the bathroom. Ten minutes later he walked out of the bathroom wearing a towel. His hair was hanging down in front of his face and he bobbed his head to the music as he got dressed. Goten opened his door and looked at the chalk board hanging on it to see what kinds of messages people had left him during the night. There were various messages that said “call me” and then Goten spotted a message in the bottom right corner of the board. He got a big grin as he read it.
“Goten, I need to talk to you. Meet me in the campus park under the big oak tree at 11.” The note was signed “ <3 Jenna ”
Goten looked down at his watch and his eyes got really big. It was already 10:55 and he was on the other side of the college campus. He burst out of the front door of his dorm building and started running towards the park. He jumped up onto a bench and jumped off of it and kept running. There were too many people around for him to fade or fly. He looked at his watch as he continued to run. It was 10:58 as he saw the big oak tree appear in the distance. He started running faster and faster. He jumped up off of the campus park fence at 10:59. He jumped so hard he landed in the big oak tree. He saw Jenna sitting under the tree about 6 feet below him. Goten had always liked Jenna. He thought she was gorgeous with her long brown hair and warm green eyes. She was on the school’s gymnastics team and was a really fun person to be around. He grabbed the branch he was on with his feet and silently swung his body off of the branch. He was hanging upside down right behind Jenna. He tapped her shoulder and smiled. She turned around quickly, not knowing who had touched her shoulder. She saw Goten hanging upside down smiling at her and giggled. He let go of the branch and flipped, landing on the ground next to her. Goten sat down on the ground next to Jenna before talking to her.
“I got your message and rushed right over. What do you need to talk about?”
Jenna looked at him in a way she never had before. Her eyes looked slightly glazed and she was blushing slightly. “G….Go…Goten…..I’ve been hiding this from you for a while…..” Jenna said as she slid closer to him. “….but I really like you.”
Goten smiled at Jenna and looked at her. “Jenna I really like you too, I have for a long time.”
Her eyes got really big and she smiled and pounced on Goten hugging him. Goten hugged her and they both laughed together. Goten looked into her eyes and smiled. “Hey Jenna, are you doing anything tonight?”
Jenna replied “No why?” Then Goten answered “Would you like to go out for dinner tonight?” Jenna grinned very big and hugged Goten again. “Pick me up at 8?” Goten replied “Sure thing. I have to go to class. I’ll see you tonight.”
Goten stood up and smiled at Jenna before running off to Gym class. He walked into the locker room and saw a bunch of jocks standing over in the corner talking. Goten slipped into his black sweatpants and a white T-shirt as he listened to the jocks talking.
The biggest jock, Billy was a football player and was talking to some of the other football players. “Yeh guys… I’m gonna get that gymnastics chick to go out with me. You all know she won’t be able to resist.”
Goten overheard this and started laughing to himself. Billy heard him laughing and walked around the lockers to see what was so funny. “HEY SPIKEY! What’s so funny?”
Goten stopped laughing and looked at Billy. “Oh nothing at all… and by they way, her name is Jenna, and I don’t think there is anything you can do to make her fall for you. You jocks are all the same…” Goten walked out of the locker room and headed into the gym.
The gym was empty for the moment, everyone else was still changing clothes. Goten looked around to make sure he was really alone then he decided it was time to do a little “special” practice. Goten opened his stance up and closed his eyes. He felt his ki running through his body and brought it all down to his feet. He grunted as he pushed all of his energy downwards. He yelled as he arched his back and extended his arms some. An aura of green energy surrounded him and the floor started to shake. Goten stopped charging his aura and let it subside. He looked around to make sure he was still alone and then lifted off into the air.
He started to dart about in the air. Living on a college campus he had not gotten many chances to fly like he could as a child. He landed on the ground after a few minutes and decided to practice one more thing before the rest of the class came in. He looked at the opposite side of the gym and took a step. Using his ki for speed he faded to the other side of the gym. He faded into another corner of the gym, then up onto the rafters. He faded down onto the floor then in circles.
Unbeknownst to Goten, Jenna was walking down the hallway and was passing the gym. She looked out of the corner of her eye and saw Goten standing in the middle of the floor. She smiled to herself and looked down at the ground, then looked back and he was gone. She walked over to the window and saw Goten fading around the gymnasium. Her eyes got big and she slowly backed up from the window and started walking down the hallway again. “What the heck was that? What was he doing?” Jenna kept walking down the hall looking at the floor and walked right into Billy who was waiting on her.
“Well hello there. I’ve been waiting on you…” Billy was flexing his muscles as he talked to Jenna. “So babe…. I know you would love to go out with me tonight. I’ll pick you up at 9….”
Jenna didn’t even look up at Billy and kept on walking. “No thanks I’m already going on a date tonight…” Billy grabbed her shoulder and turned her around. “Hey you don’t just say no to the captain of the football team!”
Jenna looked up at him. “Well I just did.” Billy shook her a little and grabbed both of her shoulders. “I don’t think you understand. I don’t take no for an answer…” Jenna clenched and screamed. “I SAID NO! GET AWAY FROM ME!” Billy smirked and replied “I don’t think anyone is going to save you sweetheart….”
“HEY! Leave her alone….” Goten was standing in the hallway looking right at Billy. “Let her go….” Billy laughed and five of his goons ran at Goten. Goten said a few final words before springing into action. “Always have to do things the hard way….”
Goten decided that not only was he going to beat these guys, he was going to scare them permanently. As the goons closed in and drew back their fists, Goten smirked. The first goon threw a punch at Goten only to hit thin air. Goten had faded. The goons eyes got big as they all looked around. Goten was nowhere to be seen. Billy looked at his goons looking around.
“Well…well…well, looks like your little hero is a chicken. He ran away and left you here with us. Just then Billy heard a grunt. He looked over to see one of his goons on the ground holding his stomach. All the other goons looked over to see what had happened. Just then they caught a glimpse of Goten. They saw his leg connect with the goon’s face, and then vanish again. The goon rocketed across the floor and smashed into a wall. The remaining four goons looked around in fear, not knowing what had just happened. Goten reappeared in the air, dropping down on top of another goon. Goten drew his leg back and kicked the goon to the ground, sending him sliding down the hallway past Billy. As he hit the ground he vanished again.
Another goon screamed in pain. Goten had reappeared and his knee was jammed up into the goons stomach. Goten spun around and kicked the goon in the chest and he spun into the bathroom door. Only two goons remained to try and stand up to Goten. Goten faded once more and reappeared behind one of them. He swept his leg around and knocked the goon off of his feet, then grabbed his arm and spun around. Goten released the goon and sent him rocketing into the other one. Knocking both into the gym door.
Goten stood up and looked at Billy, who was still holding Jenna. “I’ll give you one last chance…. Let Jenna go…” Billy let go of her and she ran to Goten. She wrapped her arms around him and started to cry on his shoulder. Goten put his arm around Jenna and walked off down another hallway with her. Billy looked around at all of his buddies who were starting to move again. He became furious and charged down the hallway after Goten. He got right up behind him and drew back his fist.
In an instant, Goten turned around and slammed his fist into Billy’s face. Billy fell backwards holding his face. His nose was bleeding everywhere. Goten turned around and walked Jenna to her next class. “I’ll be here when you get out to make sure these guys don’t give you anymore trouble. And Jenna…. I’m sorry if I scared you back there…” She looked up at Goten and smiled. “You didn’t scare me. I saw you in the gym before I ran into Billy.” Goten’s eyes got wide, he thought he had been alone when he was practicing before. Jenna saw his eyes widened and smiled at him. “Don’t worry Goten. This will be our little secret. I promise.”
Goten let Jenna walk into her next class then walked back down the hallway towards the Gym. He passed Billy, who was still on the ground bleeding. “Hmm… wonder why no one is helping them yet….” He walked back into the gym as the rest of the class came in. They all walked down to the weight room for class today, while the nurse and janitor cleaned up the “unexplained mess” near the gym.
When he got into the weight room, Goten walked over to the weight bench and started putting weight on the bar. “Lets see…. 400 pound on each side should be a good start.” Goten got on the bench and a few other students looked over at him, worried. Goten grabbed the bar and lifted it up off of the holder and brought it down to his chest. The gym teacher ran over to him because he thought Goten was going to die. Much to everyone’s surprise Goten lifted the bar off of his chest and into the air, up over his head, then brought it back down onto his chest. His muscles flexed as he lifted the 800 pounds of weights into the air once again, and brought it down onto his chest. He continued doing this as he started to get a crowd. After about 30 repetitions of 800 pounds, Goten put the bar back up on the rack and sat up on the bench.
He walked over to an open spot in the floor as everyone got back to doing something. He got down like he was going to do pushups, but then he kicked his legs up and was in a handstand position. He dropped his body down, balancing all of his body weight on his fingertips. He lifted his body back up into the air, completing one vertical fingertip pushup. Goten dropped down again, his forearms flexing as he touched his nose to the ground. He lifted his body into the air once more and continued to do the vertical fingertip pushups. After hitting 500 pushups, Goten dropped to the ground on final time, and then shoved off the ground and did a back flip, landing on his feet.
Goten then walked over to a free heavy punching bag that was chained to the ceiling. He threw a punch into the bag, and forgot to cut back his own strength. The bag ripped off of the ceiling and flew out the door. Goten looked around and walked away before anyone saw who did it. When the class was dismissed Goten walked into the locker room and changed then went on to his other classes for the day.
“Goten, I need to talk to you. Meet me in the campus park under the big oak tree at 11.” The note was signed “ <3 Jenna ”
