Gohan reacted faster than Videl could. She heard him tell her to run, but she was initially struck by the sight of Cell and Goku high above her. Even though they were far away, Videl felt like they were very close. Everything felt very close. She had only ever seen the Cell Games from behind a TV screen; to be seeing things right up close now---
The thought was abruptly interrupted when Gohan grabbed her and flew her away from the blast. Her attention snapped back to the present and she pulled herself tight up against him as the explosion shook everything around them. When the dust settled and Gohan let go of her, Videl stayed close, attention returning to the destroyed arena.
I never understood why that happened, why he just gave up like that. It was hard to see them on the TV most of the time since they were moving so fast, but it always seemed like he was holding his own just fine against Cell.
