As Piccolo sat in the woods he thought back to how he had treated Gohan when he was a young boy, "I'm going to teach him to fight early, that way he can help protect the earth in the future" he told himself, the still mucusy egg lay there in the shade, "But for now I will just let it hatch." During the time of peace there was no real need to train or worry about any kind of threat or villain. Knowing it took three months for the egg to hatch he decided to put it some were he knew he would remember and would be safe, he used his cape to clean it off, picked it up and started to fly in the direction of the one place he knew it would be safe.
Sensing that some one she knew quite well was coming in her direction, Kathy started to clean her capsule house. she didn't like being in a city so she chose a place in the deep country. she figured her friends would know were she was by sensing her power level. "Why is Piccolo coming this way? its not like I did anything wrong this time"
"Who is coming?" Tabi asked, its been a while since she saw her sensi. She walked up to Kathy with a wondering look.
"Piccolo" Kathy replied again. A few minutes later Piccolo landed in front of Kathy's house he walked up to the door and sensed a smaller power level, he almost couldn't feel it.
"Oh great, I didn't know she was here" he was about to knock on the door when it was flung open, Tabi jumped out and hugged him.
"Piccolo!" he rolled his eyes. He lifted his egg out of harms way just in time. Kathy walked to the door to pry her friend off of Piccolo and to invite him in.
"So why are you out I'm my neck of the woods Piccolo?" Kathy asked him pulling him inside.
"I actually need a favor" he sweat dropped.
"Ok what is it?" Kathy asked him. He showed them the egg.
"I need to keep this safe for three months, so I was wondering if I could keep it here?" he felt awkward asking this of her but he decided he had no better choice.
"What is it?" Tabi asked taking the pale green object.
"It looks like an egg, is it?" Kathy asked. They both looked at Piccolo. He blushed slightly.
"Yes, just keep it safe please," he told them. He walked to the door, "Oh and Tabi good job on controlling your ki level I didn't know you were here until I got to the door" he replied.
"Thanks, you were a good teacher" Tabi replied.
"Of course I was" he smirked. He walked out of the house and left. Kathy took the egg from Tabi and looked at it.
"I got to say I really didn't think they multiplied like this" she lifted the egg a little higher.
"Me either I thought, you know, they just split or something" Tabi replied
"Well were should we put this? He didn't give any special instructions so," she looked around then walked to a closet, "How about in here its out of the way and it will be protected"
"Sounds good to me" Tabi replied. The two girls went back to what they were doing, playing a game of cards.
Realizing later that is has been about three moths since he gave birth to his egg Piccolo flew to Kathy's house as fast as he could hoping he didn't miss the hatching of his child. He was expecting Kathy to know he was on his way. When he landed he saw that the door was already opened so he could come in. He walked in and called "Hello?"
"Hey Piccolo, your a day early I marked it on my calender" Kathy told him knowing why he had come to her house again. Tabi was there again too.
"Hi again Piccolo" she said to him, he nodded.
"If you want Piccolo so your here tomorrow morning you can stay the night here, at least around here since you don't sleep" the girls giggled, Piccolo narrowed his eyes.
"Why?" he asked.
"So you don't miss anything silly, this is your egg" Kathy replied.
"Yeah I guess you right," Piccolo regretfully nodded, "i guess I'll stay here, but I will stay out side" he began to walk out side
"Wait!," he stopped walking, "i was thinking you could stay here for dinner, yes you don't eat but I could give you some water" Kathy told him. He growled
"Fine, I'll stay" he replied, he shut the door and proceeded to hover in the living room.
"Ah ah ah mister, even though your just drinking water your going to sit at the table" Kathy told him. He growled again and landed.
"Fine" he sighed exasperatedly
"You can get comfortable Piccolo, take off your cape and turban" Tabi told him. "I rather not" he replied, Kathy snuck up behind him and grabbed his turban off of his head. He turned to grab his turban when Tabi grabbed his cape and pulled it off of his shoulders. The girls both laughed when he got angry and tried to hit them.
"See its not so bad" Kathy said dodging a punch.
"Yeah you'll get used to hit" Tabi replied dodging a kick. He stopped attacking them.
"Its been a while since we have spared how about a session after you guys are done eating?" he asked, the girls looked at him shocked that he would ask them that.
"Um Piccolo I can go supper sayain 2 I think I would beat you kind of quickly" Kathy replied
"And last time we spared you were breathing quite heavily" Tabi replied.
"Fine" he looked sad as he walked over to the table and sat down.
"Fine, dinner is almost done anyway" Kathy told them. She walked into the kitchen and stirred the contents of a large pot and looked in the oven for a few seconds. She pulled out an oven mitt and pulled a sheet pan out with two large fish on it. She grabbed the plates out of the cupboard and three cups. One she filled with ice and water then placed on the table, the others she put ice in and some of there favorite drink. She put those on the table then putting the fish on the plates she put those on the table then the tarter sauces and other condiments, then the pot.
"Wow that looks really good Kathy" Tabi replied sitting down.
"I know" she replied. They sat down and began eating Piccolo looked on not understanding how they could eat so much with out getting sick. They finish a few minuets later, Piccolo was still working on his glass of water. Tabi and Kathy rubbed there stomachs.
"Wow that was good" Tabi replied, Kathy nodded in agreement. Piccolo stood and grabbed his cloths and walked to the door. He put them on and opened the door.
"I'll see you guys tomorrow" Piccolo told them. They looked at him questioningly.
"Why are you leaving?" Tabi asked. He looked over his shoulder back at them.
"Well you two won't be up much longer if I know you well enough you eat then fall asleep to digest is all" he replied. Kathy yawned.
"Yeah your right I am tired, but that doesn't mean you have to leave, you can watch TV or something."
"No thank you I rather meditate then watch that crap." he walked out in to the night, his cape blowing in the wind.
