"Talking"

Thoughts

Author's Note: Hi! Welcome to the sequel of A Broken Soul! Now, if you are just starting in this fanfic,you might need to read King Piccolo's First Child and A Broken Soul to catch up. Anyways, I want to make this perfectly clear… Yes, I have a full understanding of Nameks only being one gender. But I always wondered what Dragon Ball would be like with a female Namek in the whole mix! I promise, I will give an explanation why both genders exist for this race within this story. Plus, I always like the idea of a female Namek! So if you don't like the idea, you can leave now and not flame me please!

Now…[drum roll]…ON TO THE STORY!

[TRIUMPH MUSIC!]

Kurai's P.O.V

Five Years Later…

Area secured. Enemy is nowhere in sight. My position is well hidden. Now all I gotta do is stay in this position and wait for…

BLAST!

Uh oh…

BOOM!

In a matter of seconds, I find myself face down on the ground with my clothes slightly tattered. I slowly groan as I roll on my back in defeat. "Ah man…! I thought I had ya this time…!"

A chuckle comes from above until a shadow cast over me. "Sorry Kurai! That's 33 for me…and 8 for you…"

I huffed as I got to my feet. "I'll get ya this time! 34 out of 37!"

"Kurai, we've been training since sunrise. Don't ya think ya need a break?"

"I'm five years old, Mom! I can handle anything!"

"I know ya can! But we traveled here and practiced surprise attacks since sunrise…and I'm starving~!"

I sigh heavily. "Fine! Where are we this time?"

Chō sprints away in high speed for a few seconds until she returns with a map in her hand. "Let's see… We traveled about 300 miles east from our recent camp… So that means we're at…Mount Paozu! Just a few miles away from the East District." She puts her map in her pants' pocket and grins. "Okay! While I get food, you can go play around the mountain area. We'll meet back in an hour. Cool?"

"Okay, mom!" I fly high in the air before departing. "See ya!"

As I soar through the air, I take my time to take in the view of the new amazing mountain area. Mom and I have been to countless terrains and beautiful landscapes around the world for the past five years. So far, this place has to be one of the best mountains I've ever laid eyes on.

I hope mom is taking in the view like I am right now…

"…Daddy…!"

I stop abruptly as I hear a kid's voice cry from afar. "What the…?"

"Its alright Gohan! Daddy's got ya!" a new cheery voice said.

I follow the voice until I find a little boy in a weird yellow and green outfit with a small orange ball on top of his red hat held by man with black wild hair in a bright orange fighting gi. And…Is he sitting on a cloud?

"Let's head to Roshi's house, alright? We don't want to be late for the party!"

Soon enough, they fly off to wherever 'Roshi's house' is.

Ohhhkay… Did I just see a man and his son fly off in a yellow cloud? And did I just see a boy with a monkey tail? Either I got hit in the head too hard, or I'm having the weirdest dream of my life. What kind of place is this?

"Kurai~" I hear mom yell from afar. I turn around and see her hair and clothed kind of ruffled.

"Let me guess," I said, "We're having dinosaur meat for the next few days."

"You bet!" Mom smiled, "I sensed two ki signals close to you a few seconds ago. Who were they?"

"Heh…You wouldn't believe it, but I saw a father and son on a yellow cloud and flew away."

The blue clad woman just blinks at me. "Two people flew away …on a cloud…?"

"Hey! I'm not crazy!"

"Well…"

"I'm not that crazy! I swear! The little boy even had a tail just like yours…!"

Suddenly, Mom's ki spikes a little as her eyes widen like saucers. "What…did you say?"

"A little boy in a weird outfit had a brown tail just like yours. Why? Do you know him and his Dad?"

"No… It's just… I'm surprised, that's all… Kurai, I need you to go back to camp."

This is new… I've never seen Mom act like this before. "Wait, what? Why? Where are you going?"

"I just need you to stay there while I'm gone, okay Kurai?" She said hastily.

'Mom, you're scaring me a little…"

"Kurai...! Go to camp…!"

"But Mom…"

"Kurai please!" Mom exclaimed. Both of us stay silent for long tense seconds until Mom composes herself. Slowly, she descends to my eye level and gently caresses my face with both of her hands. "Kurai, please… I won't be gone for too long. Just do me this one favor, I'm not asking too much. I promise, I'll come back."

I give her a hopeful look. "You promise?"

"I swear on my life!"

"…Okay…"

She smiles warmly. "That's my girl! I'll see ya later!" Mom then straightens up and looks towards the direction where the father and son flew off to, and flies away in high speed… Leaving me behind as I pang of worry pounds into my chest.

One hour later…

As I gaze upon the clear blue sky, I couldn't help but still worry about Mom's strange behavior.

Who could those two be that made my Mom so nervous? They didn't seem like a threat to me. Maybe it has something to do with the little boy with the tail. Gohan, was it? Yeah, that's his name. Anyway... The moment I mentioned him, Mom flipped…! *Sigh* But I shouldn't really worry so much. Mom's the strongest person in the whole world! Nothing can harm her!

I smile to myself. "Whatever it is, I know Mom can handle it!"

Suddenly, I hear a faint cry from the sky. I jump to my feet and strain my ears to listen, and track the ki. Soon enough, I hear the cries getting louder and louder, along with a huge dark ki along with a small, familiar ki. As I fly above the trees, the two energy levels fly right by me in incredible speed.

I then discover the fragile ki to be the boy from before, along with his crying. Gohan.

"Okay, that doesn't look good," I said to myself, "And I definitely don't like that other ki signature with him." I shiver from sensing the dark ki. "I gotta save him…" I was about to fly off, but stop due to remembering what Mom told me. "But Mom told me to stay here… But I can't just sit here! That little boy needs help!"

I look towards the direction of the two ki signatures. I know I can't go against what Mom told me… But I just… I can't just ignore this! Who knows what this person could do to him! Dah! But this a kid I'm a kid talking about here!

I groaned in frustration. "I hope I don't get in trouble for this…!"

Soon enough, I fly off towards two ki signatures with determination building up within me.
