Buffy: The Vampire Slayer and Dragon Ball Z Crossover

The Slayer and the Saiyan

The Slayer and the Saiyan

Just to clarify something. This is set sometime between episodes The Harvest and Angel.

Details to do with Gohan has yet to be set. Hell, I'm still not sure why he's in Sunnydale yet! Never mind I'll sort that out soon.

Chapter 2: New Friends

"Well, Mr Gohan..."

"Son." Gohan corrected. Giles looked at him. "My family name is Son."

"Oh, I'm terribly sorry." Giles said. Gohan smiled sheepishly.

"Don't worry." He said. "My family's quite traditional, it's going to take me awhile to get use to the western naming." He frowned alittle. "So..Gohan Son." He said carefully obviously finding it hard to say it that way round, then he smiled again at his success.

"Yes, I see." Giles said. "You're Japanese?"

"Yes sir." Gohan said.

"I must say you speak very good English." Giles said.

"Thank you." Gohan said with a grin. He held out a piece of paper to Giles. "Here is the list of books I need." Giles took the list and looked at it, then at Gohan and raised an eye brow.

"That's a lot of books." Giles said. "Are you sure you want them all now?" Gohan smiled.

"Yes, I'll be fine." He said.

"Alright." Giles said and went to find them all. Gohan was so deep in thought that he didn't notice that someone was approaching him.

"Hi!" Someone said and he jumped slightly. He looked and almost choked as he saw the girl that he'd met last night. She looked amused by his reaction. "You're Gohan right?" She said. Gohan relaxed alittle as he realised she didn't recognise him. He nodded. "I'm Buffy."

"H..Hi." He managed.

"Someone's got the jitters." Buffy said. "Don't worry, I wont bite." Very funny, Gohan thought, considering last night. But he smiled anyway. She smiled back and pointed to a redheaded girl sitting at the table.

"That's Willow, my friend." Buffy said, Willow waved and opened her mouth, Gohan's enhanced hearing only just caught a faint, hi. "And that's Xander." The brown haired boy, jumped off the edge of the table and gave him a bow.

"Konban-wa." He said. Gohan's lips twitched into something somewhere between a smile and a smirk.

"Ohayo." He responded, trying to keep a straight face at Xander's mistake and not doing a good job.

"What's so funny?" Xander asked, as Willow was also trying not to laugh. She shook her head.

"It's just that you said 'good night'." She said. Xander's face fell.

"Oh, man. Talk about first impressions." He said.

"At least it broke the ice." Buffy said smiling. "What does Ohayo mean anyway?" Buffy asked Gohan.

"Good morning." He said. Xander groaned.

"Great, I just met the guy and he's already making jokes at my expense."

"I thought you all people would be used to that by now." Gohan turned to see a brunette at the door.

"Oh no, Cordelia has come to the library. It must be the apocalypse, run for your lives." Cordelia gave him a cool look, then turned her full attention onto Gohan. She gave him a smile, which made him start to plan the fastest escape route, that didn't give away his power.

"Hi, I'm Cordelia Chase." She said in a way that made Gohan instantly think of Bulma when she was taking to the general public. A second later the word fake popped into his mind. "And you are?"

"Gohan." He said.

"Is that Gohan, like Madonna, or do you have a last name?" She asked. Gohan frowned, Madonna? Last name? Then he thought of something.

"You mean family name, right?" He asked. Cordelia rolled her eyes.

"Well, duh!" She said. Causing Gohan to frown again. Seeing his confusion, Buffy came to his rescue.

"Yes, she means you're family name." She said. Gohan instantly brightened.

"Oh yeah! Son. Gohan...Son." He said. Cordelia looked him up and down.

"Mmm." Then her eyes rested on his waist. "Is that a furry belt?" She asked.

"Huh?" Gohan looked down and realised she was referring to his tail, which was safely wrapped around his waist. "Er, yeah." He said nervously.

"Where did you get it?" She asked.

"Er, my dad gave it to me." Gohan said. Well that's sort of true, I guess, he thought to himself.

"Oh, well, whatever." She said and looked at him again."You're way too cute to be hanging around with these low lives." She said, this made him blush for a second, he'd never been called cute by someone his own age before.

"Hey!" Xander said. Gohan then frowned. Low lives? He could felt their ki's and they weren't that low, in fact Buffy's was quite high for a untrained human. Cordelia turned to leave, then looked back at him.

"Oh yeah." She said. "When you're ready for the bid leagues, come find me."

"Er, okay." Gohan said, getting more confused by the minute. Cordelia then left and Gohan sighed, she was really making him nervous.

"The nerve, calling us low lives." Xander said, "That was low even for her."

"Earth, to Gohan." Buffy said, Gohan turned to her.

"Huh?"

"Are you okay, you looked kinda out of it there." She said. Gohan rubbed the back of his neck.

"Er, yeah, I'm fine." He said, not noticing that Buffy's eyes narrowed alittle at the gesture. "Just a bit confused." He confessed.

"Don't worry." Willow said. "She's like that with all the new people."

"Yeah." Buffy said. "Even tried it when I started."

"Er, for what it's worth I don't think you're low lives." He said.

"Gee thanks." Buffy said. Gohan blushed again. At that moment Giles returned with all his books, and put them all down on the counter.

"Wow, that is a lot of books." Willow said, as Gohan started to put them all in his satchel, he glanced at her.

"Yeah, my mum's a bit obsessed with my studying." He said.

"Well, I think that's all of them." Giles said.

"Arigatou." Gohan said absentmindedly.

"You're welcome." Giles said. Gohan finished putting all the books away and turned to leave.

"It was nice meeting you all." He said and left the library. He smiled to himself. That wasn't too bad really. Apart from the fact that he didn't understand half of what they were saying.
