Piccolo scowled as he tried to meditate by a waterfall, but it wasn't working he was too angry and there wasn't anything he could do to release his fury. Vegeta was just an arrogant fool anyway. To think that he had hit on Bulma! All Piccolo had done was to hold open the door for her because he had been there first and Vegeta jumped off the couch exclaiming " Oh, so the mighty Green Bean must resort to helping poor helpless women to feel superior now, huh?" In other words Vegeta believed he was trying to steal Bulma from him. What a ridiculous... "OOF"...idea.
Suddenly something hit Piccolo in the back with enough force to knock him out of the sky and send him crashing into the ground.
As soon as he hit the water bank, Piccolo was up and looking for the enemy. That is, he was trying to get up. Whatever had hit him was still on his back.
"Get off!" he yelled reaching behind him to get whatever was on his back.
"Yeesh!" a female voice said sarcastically ."It's not like I want to be here you know! And I would love to get off but I can't because you've got my leg!"
Piccolo hurriedly let go of the limb he had grasped and stood up knuckling the small of his back. He was a seasoned fighter but that had hurt!
Looking around he caught sight of a blond figure running away in the distance.
"Oh no you don't!" he growled under his breath, "Not without an explanation!"
Flying, he caught up to the female and punched her in the back, causing her to hop three times before sprawling to the ground.
"OW!" she yelled, and Piccolo winced. That was a strong set of lungs. "That hurt! Who are you? and why'd the hell did you punch me for?"
Bad Grammar !. The was about 17, with shoulder length, wavy golden blond hair, and glaring blue eye's. She was wearing baggy, black pants, a black spaghetti strap tank top, and a white and black striped fuzzy belt around her waist.
"You're just a teenager!" he said in surprise.
"Oh you noticed!" she said sarcastically and stood up, dusting herself off and muttering something about fools who state the obvious.
Sensing four power levels and realizing in shock, that one of the strongest came from the blond , Piccolo scanned the sky. Two of them were Goku's and his son, Gohan's. That much was certain , but the fourth was identical to the blond s in strength and was coming from a different direction.
Turning to ask the blond what her name was , he realized she was also scanning the sky.
"What are you doing?" he asked, wondering if she could sense power levels as well.
"Looking for my friend," she said simply, then snapped back to reality "Hey! You haven't answered my questions!"
"For your first question," he said with a sigh "My name is Piccolo and I am a Namek. For your second, I couldn't let you run away without telling me why you attacked me."
"I didn't attack you!" she snapped angrily " For your information I was walking to school when POOF! I was falling right on top of you and.... Hey! , wait a minute. What's a Namek?"
Piccolo sighed again.
"A Namek is the name of my people that come from a different planet, and if you want to know more I suggest you consult an encyclopedia" he growled.
"Well, aren't we the cheeriest person around!" she said sarcastically.
"You could be a bit more polite yourself!" Piccolo snapped getting annoyed. Here she was claiming with all the sarcasm in the world that he was being unsociable while she didn't even apologize for knocking him out of the sky for all her claims of s.
The blond looked like she was going to reply when she turned around and said:
"Finally!"
Piccolo turned around and searched the sky. A short distance away, another young about the same age as the annoying blond, was heading towards the ground at top speed. From this distance, he could see that she had long dark brown hair and had brown eye's too match her hair as well as a sharp expression of someone who did not like surprises in the least. She wore black flared denim pants, a black sleeveless shirt with a black denim jacket and the same fuzzy belt that the blond had about her waist. He noticed too late that she was heading towards a tree nearby. He could do nothing to stop the inevitable crash.
The looked down, and upon sighting the tree sighed, and prepared for a rough landing.
Hitting the tree in a sitting position, she looked surprised at her luck, just as the tree branch she was resting on ed and fell to the ground with an audible "oomph" dumping her unceremoniously to the ground. Immediately she checked her hands and fingers for any damage, then tried to get up off the ground without further bruising herself. She managed that much with considerable grace, until you noticed she was rubbing her rump and wincing.
Suddenly the blond stood up and grinned. Muttering something about how only musicians would check there hands for any damage before anything else and not even caring if they broke all their bones so long as their hands were untouched, she went to greet what could only be her friend.
Just then Goku and Gohan arrived.
"Looks like newcomers." Goku observed with his usual smile.
Gohan, however was frowning in concentration.
Gohan took a quick inhale of breath and said " Dad, their power levels are.....incredibly high. I've never sensed anything like their power....they're...identical!"
Piccolo continued to stare at the two s and studied them while the blond was telling something to the , no doubt telling her about how she landed on top of him. He frowned and thought this really isn't my day!
"...and he said he was a Namek!" The blond said leading her friend over to the group. "Hey! There's more people here."
Piccolo continued to frown but sent his gaze to the . There was something odd about the and the blond but something more strange with the . He just couldn't place it, and by the looks of it, neither did Gohan. Goku on the other hand, was greeting them with open arms and the same enthusiasm he did with everything.
"Hi! I'm Goku and this is my son Gohan" he said pointing to the young boy "Oh! I almost forgot, this is Piccolo" he gestured towards the tall man with the green skin who had currently fallen down in a face vault just like everyone else had except for Goku.
"What?" he said ly and managing to look confused at the same time.
Everyone picked themselves off of the ground and dusted themselves off just as the blond rolled her eye's and headed towards the rooftops that were peeking out over the mountain area that they were in. The however, looked at Piccolo and frowned slightly before she went to catch up with her friend.
She knows I don't trust her! Piccolo realized with a jolt. I had better watch myself, with her power level she could be a tough opponent to beat especially if her friend joined in! He frowned even further and caught Goku's eyes he nodded, and then headed towards the two s who were already moving toward the city. As long as they were here they might as well meet Bulma.
Vegeta shook his head as he walked towards the gravity room. The two new s were once again in his gravity room and taking up his training time. The s name was Amber and the 's name was Kate. Those s were strange, very strange and he didn't like them one bit and it didn't help that they were stronger then him but he would never admit that aloud. The only thing that allowed him to bear their company since they first came to Bulma's , was that they were also stronger than Kakkarot. Both of the s were irritating even more so when they were together because they constantly finished each others sentences and said things that were totally unexpected that even after 3 weeks of being here they made everyone jump. They were just too unpredictable. Just last night Kate had everyone staring at her in wide eyed shock. How someone could learn so much useless information in only 17 years was beyond him. Kate had reeled off a list of mathematical equation nonsense, pausing only to take a drink and to top it off as soon as she paused Amber would continue on for her until she was finished her drink. The most infuriating part of all was that she had begun that stupid list only because she was curious about what equation would duplicate a picture in the magazine she was reading and Bulma asked if there was such an equation. Nonsense, it was all some stupid game that they were concocting but it annoyed him to no end. The only thing he admired about them was that they were in tune with each other.
Reaching the gravity room he noticed that they were training as he felt there power levels spike every now and then. He glared at the door and planned on opening it to yell at them till they left his training chamber. He opened the door and nearly fell flat on his face. He quickly glanced at the computer and gasped in shock. They were training in nearly 5000 times gravity. He wasn't able to reach that level yet but he would now even more determined to surpass this new challenge that they presented. It wasn't fair ! Even teenager's were stronger than he was and they were only human! He was the Prince of all Saiyans with royal flowing through his veins and once again he was left in the shadows of power. He glared at the s in the room.
Hearing his gasp, Kate turned around on the spot she was sitting on to meet his gaze. She had a stop watch in her hand and was timing a yellow and blue blur that could only be Amber. Smiling she motioned for him to come and take a seat beside her. When he only glared at her and didn't move a muscle either to leave or come in and sit down. She frowned but then remembered that he believed that he should be the strongest in the universe just because he was a prince and a Saiyan. She mentally shook herself at that thought after all who was she to judge his obviously almost to popping egotistical brain of his. She instantly calmed down and shouted to Amber.
" Get ready for a gravity change, Yuki! We've got a guest!"
Amber stopped running in mid motion and started walking around to cool off from her exertions. Then she walked over to him while Kate went to the controls.
" So, are you going to train with us?" Amber asked, well aware that he was not fond of people who were stronger than he was.
" I train alone!" he bellowed in a tense voice obviously very angry at the s for being in "his" gravity room.
Kate walked over to stand beside her friend, her miniature computer clasped in her hands.
"So we noticed," she laughed, "Come join us anyway! It's fun."
"We race each other and try to see who has the best time." Amber added.
"Hmmph, that isn't training if you want to play go elsewhere! I have no time to baby-sit or referee your trivial games" he said smirking at them " If that's what you call training no wonder your power levels haven't increased by much, Hmmph racing indeed"
"Our strength are exactly the same and that's why we try to best each other at racing rather than grappling, we don't get anywhere grappling we always end in a stale mate!" Amber said smiling trying to hold back a laugh forming in her throat.
"Try?" he looked confused, " Don't tell me you are equal in speed as well!"
At that both Amber and Kate burst out into laughter. He glared at them distressed that both Amber and Kate had the same speed and once again he had another challenge to his pride that he would overcome. After a little while of laughing Amber managed to poke Kate and reply.
" Kate and I are completely equal in all things, we are practically the same person or at least that's what we have come to conclude right Kiro?" she said poking her friend again.
"Yep, we learned long ago that we are physically and psychically linked to one another, for some reason we can't figure out" she replied capturing Amber's poking fingers in her hands.
"So that is why your power levels are exactly the same!" He said finally understanding why they shared the same power level," Not only do you think and act alike, but you also match one another in other activities as well! You probably share the same power then and that would be why your power is so high for humans" He inwardly sighed at least he understood there power and he knew now that if one had a weakness so would the other.
Amber looked at Kate who shrugged and released Amber's fingers. Amber turned back to Vegeta and said:
"What's this power level that everyone keeps talking about?"
Vegeta just stood there and stared in utter shock at what Amber had just said. How could people who were so in tune with everything around them and had enough of a brain to store useless information not know anything about power levels. Shaking his head to clear it, he began to explain what a power level was just to soothe his ego when he noticed that Kate was frowning and he felt a power level behind him flare up. That infernal lizard had once again managed to sneak up on him. The Namek told him to meet him and the others outside. Vegeta glared at the green man about ready to yell at him that "No one told him what to do" but agreed to go just so that he would know what was going on and reluctantly went ahead of the Namek grumbling about even more time wasted from his training.
"What was that about?" Amber asked, watching Piccolo's broad green back walking away from them with Vegeta in the lead.
"Don't know and don't care. "Kate said , typing at her minicomputer, "I've given up on trying to find out why he s me so much."
"Who Vegeta or Piccolo?" Amber said jokingly but got a glare instead.
"Okay, okay," Amber said tugging at a stray bit of hair " I'm sure he doesn't you, he's probably just the type of person who doesn't like new people."
That earned Amber a new glare "Oh yeah! then why isn't he glaring or frowning at you!, whenever he's here it's me who gets the cold shoulder not you!" she paused" He doesn't seem to mind you one bit"
" Well that's probably because I actually spoke with him!" she said throwing up her hands, " I can't say the same about you!"
"What was I supposed to do?" Kate asked, getting annoyed," Let you walk into a strange city with strange people and try to have a conversation with someone who looked like he wanted to kill me!?!"
Shoving her computer into her small knapsack, Kate picked up her dark blue denim jacket and stormed out of the room
Amber stood there and stared long after Kate had left. Neither liked the others anger over much but Katae had never let that much slip before. All she could do was hope that Kate didn't lose control and take her frustration out on any of their new friends.
" Are you absolutely sure?" a short bald headed man named Krillin asked for about the hundredth time.
"Krillin," Piccolo warned in a low growl, "I am going to find out what bugs me about those and I need your help to do it!"
"I don't see the point." Goku commented frowning, he liked the two new comers, "They're perfectly friendly. I don't understand why you don't see that!"
"Goku!" Piccolo snapped exasperated, he refrained from trying to knock some sense into that thick, easy going, Saiyajin's skull, " They may be perfectly friendly to you but have you seen the way Kate stares at me? or Amber for that matter, although I don't mind her doing it!"
" Yes I have for a matter of fact!" Goku retorted, finally getting annoyed and ignoring his statement, "She looks as if she's trying to become friends with you but you keep pushing her away from you! Why can't you act like yourself like you do with Amber. When your with Amber, your nice to her even more so then with us! People you've known longer than her, but as soon as Kate enters the room you turn into a cold unfeeling statue! That is not a stare of hatred she is giving you! It's always frustration! I'm surprised at her patience with you! She's been patient with all of us, but I can tell you are pushing your luck to the very limit this time Piccolo!"
"Goku, something is ...grrrr!...it's hard to explain but there's something odd about those s! Even Gohan feels it, I don't know why you can't!" Piccolo yelled.
Piccolo moved up to Goku and looked down at him trying to intimidate him with sheer size, a habit that he had only recently begun to use in his fighting techniques because it irritated Vegeta. He stared at Goku who was only 6 or 7 inches shorter than he was and glared at him. Goku even though he was his friend, could get irritating at times and this was one of them! He was too good hearted to allow anyone to stalk Kate without just cause. Unfortunately, Piccolo didn't have any evidence other than the feeling and stares that there was something he didn't like about her. What was odd was that he didn't mind her twin Amber one bit. She was different than any female he had met but nothing off like her friend Kate, but damn it!! Why couldn't Goku see he was just trying to prove whether or not she posed a threat to them, but it was for a just cause but Goku felt it was unfair to try to prevent any danger to them because it was unfair to Kata. Goku wasn't going to give up, but then again neither was he, if need be he would fight Goku to prove his point.
Krillin moved forward in what looked like an attempt to cease there bickering but Vegeta interceded and knocked him away from Goku and Piccolo, hoping that they would duke it out. That would be a most entertaining battle between Kakkarot and the Lizard, he wondered who would be the victor in this particular match. He smirked at that and thought maybe it was worth the time he had lost from his training that day. It wasn't everyday that the two people he d the most would beat each other up over a trivial matter. He grinned and watched with more interest than he had anything since the battle with Freiza, where he had laid eye's on the form of the legendary Super Saiyan. The only thing he regretted from that day was that it hadn't been himself whom he had seen rather it had been Kakkarot. He glared at Kakkarot and imagined burning his way through the lower class Saiyan's skull and causing him a lot of pain in the process.
"Hey! what did you do that for Vegeta?" Krillin yelled picking himself off the ground and rubbing his head where Vegeta had hit him.
"Shut up Cue-Ball!" Vegeta yelled not even bothering to look at Krillin.
"Answer me Ve-ge-ta!" Krillin yelled shaking his fist at him and pronouncing every syllable of the Saiyan Princes name in an effort to get his attention. That didn't even get him a response! Then he tried a new tactic "Vegie-Chan!" that got Vegeta's attention! He had a very red blush staining his cheeks.
"Cue-Ball! shall we see how many times your head bounces against the ground!?!" he demanded angrily the blush changing into a flush of anger as he faced the short monk without a nose.
"Vegeta! Leave Krillin alone!" Goku said walking around Piccolo to come face to face with Vegeta. (Dun Dun Duh the end for now.....)
Suddenly something hit Piccolo in the back with enough force to knock him out of the sky and send him crashing into the ground.
As soon as he hit the water bank, Piccolo was up and looking for the enemy. That is, he was trying to get up. Whatever had hit him was still on his back.
"Get off!" he yelled reaching behind him to get whatever was on his back.
"Yeesh!" a female voice said sarcastically ."It's not like I want to be here you know! And I would love to get off but I can't because you've got my leg!"
Piccolo hurriedly let go of the limb he had grasped and stood up knuckling the small of his back. He was a seasoned fighter but that had hurt!
Looking around he caught sight of a blond figure running away in the distance.
"Oh no you don't!" he growled under his breath, "Not without an explanation!"
Flying, he caught up to the female and punched her in the back, causing her to hop three times before sprawling to the ground.
"OW!" she yelled, and Piccolo winced. That was a strong set of lungs. "That hurt! Who are you? and why'd the hell did you punch me for?"
Bad Grammar !. The was about 17, with shoulder length, wavy golden blond hair, and glaring blue eye's. She was wearing baggy, black pants, a black spaghetti strap tank top, and a white and black striped fuzzy belt around her waist.
"You're just a teenager!" he said in surprise.
"Oh you noticed!" she said sarcastically and stood up, dusting herself off and muttering something about fools who state the obvious.

Piccolo sighed again.
"A Namek is the name of my people that come from a different planet, and if you want to know more I suggest you consult an encyclopedia" he growled.
"Well, aren't we the cheeriest person around!" she said sarcastically.
"You could be a bit more polite yourself!" Piccolo snapped getting annoyed. Here she was claiming with all the sarcasm in the world that he was being unsociable while she didn't even apologize for knocking him out of the sky for all her claims of s.

He noticed too late that she was heading towards a tree nearby. He could do nothing to stop the inevitable crash.

He was too good hearted to allow anyone to stalk Kate without just cause. Unfortunately, Piccolo didn't have any evidence other than the feeling and stares that there was something he didn't like about her. What was odd was that he didn't mind her twin Amber one bit. She was different than any female he had met but nothing off like her friend Kate, but damn it!! Why couldn't Goku see he was just trying to prove whether or not she posed a threat to them, but it was for a just cause but Goku felt it was unfair to try to prevent any danger to them because it was unfair to Kata. Goku wasn't going to give up, but then again neither was he, if need be he would fight Goku to prove his point.
Krillin moved forward in what looked like an attempt to cease there bickering but Vegeta interceded and knocked him away from Goku and Piccolo, hoping that they would duke it out. That would be a most entertaining battle between Kakkarot and the Lizard, he wondered who would be the victor in this particular match. He smirked at that and thought maybe it was worth the time he had lost from his training that day. It wasn't everyday that the two people he d the most would beat each other up over a trivial matter. He grinned and watched with more interest than he had anything since the battle with Freiza, where he had laid eye's on the form of the legendary Super Saiyan. The only thing he regretted from that day was that it hadn't been himself whom he had seen rather it had been Kakkarot. He glared at Kakkarot and imagined burning his way through the lower class Saiyan's skull and causing him a lot of pain in the process.
"Hey! what did you do that for Vegeta?" Krillin yelled picking himself off the ground and rubbing his head where Vegeta had hit him.
"Shut up Cue-Ball!" Vegeta yelled not even bothering to look at Krillin.
"Answer me Ve-ge-ta!" Krillin yelled shaking his fist at him and pronouncing every syllable of the Saiyan Princes name in an effort to get his attention. That didn't even get him a response! Then he tried a new tactic "Vegie-Chan!" that got Vegeta's attention! He had a very red blush staining his cheeks.
"Cue-Ball! shall we see how many times your head bounces against the ground!?!" he demanded angrily the blush changing into a flush of anger as he faced the short monk without a nose.
"Vegeta! Leave Krillin alone!" Goku said walking around Piccolo to come face to face with Vegeta. (Dun Dun Duh the end for now.....)
