Yes! Here is the official Chapter 1! Just so you guys know, I will try to write this story as if it were an actual arc, so I hope you enjoy.

Chapter 1: Discovery

Mio sat down on a chair reading a book. She always woke up earlier than 17. She didn't know why, but she did. The book was about this season's fruits and she has been reading that book for 3 years now. Fruits were her favorite food, particularly apples and cherries.

It had been 6 months since the death of Kid Buu. Mio had met 17 when she was telling everyone to raise hands so Goku could have energy for his Super Spirit Bomb. Sometime after Kid Buu's death, 17 had allowed Mio to live with him in a house near the mountains, much to everyone's discomfort.

The door opened somewhere in the room and Android 17 walks in the room. Upon hearing the door open and close, Mio turns around. "I don't need anything, thank you very much," she said to him.

"Why do you always say the same thing whenever I enter the room?" 17 said to her. He walked up to her side and he looked at the book she was reading before promptly seizing the book away from her. "What is this crap?" he asked her.

"It's not 'crap'," Mio told him. She attempted to get back the book, but 17 turned around and started to rip the pages of the book and he threw them into a nearby trashcan. "Well, want something to eat?"

Mio gave him a confused look. "Do Androids even eat?"

"Not for me, for you?! Do you want something to eat?" 17 asked her.

"Uh, no thanks, I'm not hungry," she told him. She walked over to the trash can, looking at the remains of her ripped up book. "You do know that you're going to have to buy me a book, right?"

17 did not answer. Instead, he grabbed Mio by the arm and heads for the door.

"Hey, what are you doing? I'm not kidding, 17, let me go," Mio shrilled. Her arm was beginning to hurt due to his grasp.

"Like that's going to happen," 17 muttered. "I'm gonna get you a bite to eat. Otherwise, it won't be my fault if you starve."

"I said I'm not hungry," Mio told him for the second time. "Just let me go."

"No."

When the two of them went outside, 17 finally releases Mio's arm, and she lands on her rear end.

"Well then," he said to her. "Why don't we find ourselves a nice ride for us to go in? Won't that be fun?"

"No, it wouldn't," Mio said. What was the point of cars if they could fly? And since she knew that 17 was a reckless driver, she hated them even more now. "Why can't we just fly?"

'"What? Why do want to take the fun out of everything, Mio? Don't be such a buzzkill," 17 replied.

"Don't be such an okama*," Mio muttered to herself.

"I heard that!"

"Good. I hope you heard that, shemale!"

For a while, the two of them continued to pelt each other with various insults. In the end, though, they eventually settled on flying. Eventually the two of them landed in a small city that had people walking from building to building and talking to one another.

"Now that we're here," 17 said. "Now do you want something to eat?"

"I said I wasn't hungry," Mio replied. Immediately after she said that, though, her stomach began to growl.

"Don't lie to me," 17 said. "I know when you're hungry or not. Come on, I'll get you some food." He took Mio by the hand and led her into a small coffee shop.

"Hey! Give this girl some food!" 17 shouted, raising Mio's hand into the air. "She's starving and she's complaining about being hungry! And if you don't…" 17 reached for his pistol. But before he could take it out, Mio breaks out of his grip and grabs his wrist.

"17, what are you doing? I told you I'm not hungry!"

"You're lucky I'm actually taking the time getting you food."

"I told you, I'm not hungry and even if I was, I don't want to get food like this!"

"Oh, so you're saying that you won't eat food that I buy for you?"

"I never said that!"

Once again, Mio and 17 started arguing and calling each other vicious names. Meanwhile, people were staring at them with looks of bewilderment on their faces. Some of them even consider bursting with laughter. At the front desk, the cashier said to himself, "So, are they going to rob us or not?"

"That's it, do what you want! Rob the store! See if I care!" Mio suddenly exclaimed. She started walking towards the door.

"Hey, Mio, where are you going?!" 17 asked.

"Where does it look like? Away from here," came Mio's reply. She walked out the door and slammed it hard. When the glass from the door broke, she shouted "That's not my fault!"

After walking out of the shop, Mio decided to go to a bookstore to replace the book 17 tore apart. But while she was walking, she noticed something about the city.

"This is strange," she said to herself. "Where did all of the people go? There were a lot of them here just now. Why are they all gone?"

She was right. All of the people—who didn't seem to notice the commotion in the coffee shop—were all gone, as if they just vanished into thin air. She looked around for signs of destruction, like signs of a fight or a demolished building. There weren't any.

"This is weird," Mio thought. "What's going on?"

Upon entering the bookstore, she greeted the manager and started browsing through the merchandise. However, she was here for another reason.

"How may I help you?" the storekeeper asked.

"What happened to the people outside?" Mio asked.

The storekeeper thought about this for a moment. "Well, I don't know. Let me check." She and Mio went back outside and looked around.

"That is odd," the storekeeper said. "Well, it's probably nothing we should be concerned about." She went back into the store.

Mio turned to go back into the store as well. But before she could, she looked to her left.

A shadowy figure was standing a pretty good distance away from her. While Mio couldn't make out a face or what it was doing, she felt as if it was calling to her. She could feel it staring into her soul and beckoning to her, as if the figure wanted Mio to come away with it.

A sweet melody began to fill Mio's ears. The melody sounded distorted and sad but happy in a way. One thing was for sure, it was soothing. So soothing... Too soothing...

17 walked out of the coffee shop, empty-handed.

After Mio ditched him, 17 still tried to buy food for her, but he had no money. As a result, he threatened a man for money, but the coffee shop owner broke them up and kicked him out of the store.

"Hey, Mio!" 17 yelled out. "I got kicked out, so we can do whatever you want now! Mio! Where are you?"

No response.

"Hey, where are you? Are you messing with me? Come out and show yourself!"

Still no response.

Now this wasn't fun for 17 anymore. He closed his eyes and tried to feel for Mio's Ki.

Unfortunately, he couldn't find it and 17 flew off.

Cliffhanger in the 1st Chapter. What else you got?!

If 17 seemed OOC in this first chapter, I'm sorry. He hasn't appeared in any saga since the Imperfect Cell Saga, so I can't really nail his personality. He definitely needs more appearances.

*Okama- Shemale (think of those "guys" that Sanji met in "Hell")

Hope you enjoyed! :)
