Piccolo landed soundly outside Gohan's house then , he got a wretched feeling in his gut "Damn I forgot about Chi Chi she must be a wreck right now her husband just died and all she has left is Gohan. Piccolo debated whether or not he wanted to approach Chi Chi because they've never been on good terms. After some deep thinking he decided against it and telepathically contacted Gohan to meet him outside. After some time passed ,Piccolo suddenly heard Chi Chi yelling which made his ears ring. Gohan then contacted him back saying she wouldn't let him out of the house. " Ever since the Cell games she won't even let me out of the house by myself sorry Piccolo. His face scrunched up but soon relaxed " It's alright kid you both have been through a lot I don't expect it to be easy for you, I just came to see how you were doing. " I'm hanging in there I mean... There isn't a day that goes by where I don't think about dad ,I can't help but feel that it's all my fault , Gohan sobbed. Don't say that Gohan if you want to blame someone blame that monster Cell he's the one who did this not you. Piccolo continued " It's not your fault that you couldn't control the extreme desire inside you to toy with cell it happened to your dad and Vegeta, you can't dwell on the past I know it's hard but you need to buck up at least for your mom. After a moment of silence Gohan spoke up " Thanks Piccolo I'm glad you came here to talk to me. No problem kid if you need to talk again you know how to contact me. They then parted ways and piccolo flew of. While piccolo was flying through the the city he looked around at the buildings and illuminating lights " The city could be gorgeous at times I've never noticed because of the whole android threat. He decide to check on the rest of the Z fighters to see if they were in stable condition. Since Yamcha was the closest he flew to him first. He trailed Yamcha's energy to a baseball stadium. Now Piccolo didn't know much about sports, but he knew it was one of the highest forms of entertainment and Yamcha happened to play for one of the most popular teams. He saw a group of guys wearing yellow uniforms exiting the stadium, it didn't take long for him to point out Yamcha. He landed out of sight so no one would see him, he wasn't discouraged about approaching Yamcha with them around because let's be honest there are weirder things walking around. Hey Yamcha! He belted out. Everyone jolted and turned towards him. Yamcha had let his long hair grow out again much like it was when he was a bandit, he was flirting with two curvy girls one blonde one brunette. Pi...Piccolo what are you doing here. "Is he going to finally kill us now that gokus gone" he said to himself. Relax Yamcha I just came to check on how you were doing its been rough for everyone ; he calmly stated. Yamcha suddenly exhaled "Phew" Sorry man I've just been on edge lately I'm doing good just want to get back to what I do best he said as he casually threw a baseball in the air and caught it. That's good I just got back from Gohan's house to check on him. Yamcha's eyes widened Whoa you mean you actually talked to Chi Chi what did she say...did she hit you? Piccolo shook his head sideways No I didn't talk to her just Gohan. Yamcha rubbed the back of his head Yeah that's probably for the best she just needs time to mourn. Piccolo shook his head agreeingly. Well it was nice catching up with you Piccolo where are you headed now? Piccolo thought about it for a second "Well since I'm already in the city I guess I'll go to capsule corp and see about Vegeta. Yamcha sweat dropped Good Luck with that bro you're gonna need it" Piccolo nodded then waited for the group to leave before taking off again. Once they were sure he was gone everyone stared at Yamcha and asked the same question in unison Who the hell was that? Yamcha looked up at the sky and said an old friend.
