It's been three whole years since the defeat of the terrifying Cell at the hands of the half-Saiyan child, Son Gohan. Of course, due to the loss of footage, the world was mislead to believe that Hercule Satan was the one to vanquish the being in the place of All Might's absence. Now, the young warrior, after three years of training and studying, stood before the gates of Battle Center B of U.A. High School, the gathering place for many future heroes. Getting this far was nothing thanks to his mother's homeschooling, however she had only agreed to let him enroll if he promised to be a scholar or a doctor or something of the sort as his primary job.

With his hair remaining the same from three years back, Gohan's growth spurt put him at about 5'5", and he had decided to come in his own personal gi, a no-character purple Turtle Hermit gi with a blue undershirt, blue sash, and blue wrist bands, showing a sign of gratitude and respect for the training from both Piccolo and his father. The 14-year-old could spot another boy about his height, with a mess of green hair in a blue track suit shivering in place.

Gohan approached the boy and placed a hand on his shoulder, catching his attention. "Hey, don't worry, ok? I'm sure you'll do fine." He delivered his best confidence-boosting smile.

"Thanks. It really helps that you think that." He told Gohan, followed by an eased smile. "Everyone is so confident about this mock battle."

"Well, that's the key. Be confident in your abilities, and yourself." He reminded the boy with a thumbs up.

"Right! Let's get started!" A man shouted from the top of the structure behind the crowd of students. "Get moving! There are no timers in real battles! RUN RUN RUN, listeners! You're wasting air-time!" With that, Gohan dashed through the crowd. Right out of the gate, he was speeding ahead of the crowd, dropping everyone's jaw as a series of robots began to explode around him, netting him 25 points. Running down the street, he zigzagged back and forth from the left and right side of the street, crushing every enemy that came into sight.

Compared to what he had been through, the robots were like flies. It was as if each one had moved in slow motion prior to being destroyed. As he turned the corner to loop back around to the gate, he saw a young girl down the street, covering her mouth with her cheeks puffed out. Just as a 3-Pointer appeared behind her, Gohan jumped to the side and ripped his leg through it, causing it to explode before carrying on.

Everywhere Gohan went was nothing but destruction. By the last two minutes of the trial, he had gathered around 93 points from the robots. As Gohan took a breather, brushing his hands free of dirt, the ground began to rumble. Turning around, Gohan could see a massive figure emerge from the massive cloud of dust. Making his way to the main street, he could see several people running in the opposite direction. "It's kind of funny, actually. It's not like that thing's an Android." Gohan told himself before crossing his arms. He began to walk away, thinking that there was no point in taking on an enemy that posed no kind of threat or challenge when it wouldn't benefit him.

As the dust settled and the sound of a loud crash filled the small city, Gohan turned around to see the boy from before, floating in the air. "Hey! You have to help me! I can save him!" A voice called out. Looking down, the rubble beneath the robot was burying the young girl that he had saved before. Gohan dashed forward, quickly closing the distance before pulling the rubble off of her. The two looked up and saw the boy holding his arm, falling with no intent of a safe landing. "Something's wrong!" She said. "I have to help him!"

"It's fine, I've got him!" Gohan said, flying into the sky. He met the boy's falling speed and put his arms under him. As he slowed their descent, the crowd began to gather around them.

"It's you..." He said, realizing that he had just been saved. "Wait, I need to find some villains!" The boy said, attempting to lift himself out of Gohan's arms.
