Chapter 2

Behind the Scenes and Birth

Kami stood there before Piccolo with a look of shock of his face. Of all the things that could have brought Piccolo to the Lookout, that was not what he had been expecting. Several yards away Mr. Popo had actually drop his watering pale; he had stopped his usual route of watering the flowers and other plants on the Lookout the moment that Piccolo had arrived. He knew that Piccolo had change a lot over the years, but he was still cautious around the once evil Namekian. But what Piccolo had said had certainly been a shock to the black skinned genie. So Popo said the only thing that came to his mind, "Oh my!" Though it held a great deal of emphasis and surprise, it came out only slightly louder than a whisper.

Mr. Popo was not the only one surprised by this revelation, Kami himself was surprised as well, could he have heard Piccolo correct? Did Piccolo, Once know as the Demon King, want to have and raise a child. "Could you repeat that one more time? I'm not sure I heard you right," Kami asked clearly not believing his ears had heard correct.

Piccolo, who had been silent for the few second that it took Kami to try and process what he had said, let out a low growl and repeated. "I have decided to become a father." This time the annoyance in Piccolo's voice was much clear.

Kami, then asked, "And you want my help in raising and teaching the child, correct?" Kami who was quickly getting over his shock knew that this was one of the most logical reasons Piccolo would come to him. To be honest, he felt some what honored that Piccolo had change enough to ask him to aid in some way to the raising of his child.

"Yes," Piccolo said. "This is probably the safest place to raise and train the child. Besides I want to keep the boy a secret until his training is some what complete. With some luck we won't have another threat until the boy is properly train."

Kami nodded his head slight. The Earth seemed to attract trouble over the past few years, what with Garlic Jr., Radtiz, Nappa, and Vegeta. Yes, the Earth seemed to be in trouble almost every year recently. And while Radtiz and Nappa were dead, that didn't mean that they could afford to take chances. Vegeta might go bad again, though Kami doubted that. He could just sense a certain change in the Saiyan Prince, which told him he would no longer be a threat. But Garlic Jr. was still out there, even trapped in the Dead Zone; he could possibly escape and once again become a threat to the Earth. Then, there was always the outside possibility that some new unknown threat would suddenly appear and threaten everything. He didn't tell Piccolo but he had already taken matters of increasing the Earths defense by convincing Chichi to allow Gohan to train. Though she didn't know it was Kami who convince her, but he had managed to do it. It was one of the small tricks he picked up over the centuries, placing minor suggestions into people's thought without them knowing. While he rarely used the ability because he thought it was unethical, he felt that this was a case where a little subterfuge was needed. With Gohan training combined with Piccolo's son being trained to protect the Earth would greatly increase Earth by these two events and even more once the human fighters had been revived.

He had, upon the end of the dual between Goku and Frieza on Namek, went to King Yemma's check-in-station and made arrangement for Krillin and Goku to go King Kai's Planet to receive more training. Imagine his surprise when he learned that Goku was alive. He chose to keep this information to himself, knowing that it would not do any good for Goku's friends to know, because at this point there was simply nothing that could be done about it. So, he chose to keep his mouth shut and continue to work behind the scene to improve the Earth's defenses. Kami shook himself from his inner thoughts and return his mind to Piccolo's request.

"Very well," Kami said. "You may use one of the spare rooms to house the egg until it hatches. Follow me." Were it anyone else, Kami might have had Mr. Popo show them to a room. But this was Piccolo and that combined with the interesting occasion for his arrival demand that he show Piccolo to the room himself. He already had a specific room in mind.

As Kami lead Piccolo into the inner part of the Lookout, Popo had finally gotten over his shock and went back to his work of tending to the Lookout. "Never a dull moment around here," he said more to himself than anyone else. "Not since Goku's first visit." That was true now that Popo thought about it. First Goku had come to train after beating the Demon King Piccolo, then the other human fighters to train for the Saiyan and now Piccolo was here to give birth to and train his son, never a dull moment.

Inner working of Kami's Lookout

Piccolo causally followed Kami through the Lookout to the room that Piccolo would spit-up the egg that would hold his son. At least he considers it a male, since all Namekian have more male characteristic than female. Kami finally stop in front of a door, he opened it and lead Piccolo in.

The room was simple with white tiles on the floor and ceiling. The wall was a slight grey with a black running horizontally stripe. The room had an oval window that allowed one to look down on earth and also allowed light in. In the middle of the room was an almost bowl shaped dish that had piece of straw sticking out of it. Piccolo walked into the room to take a closer look at what appeared to be a nest. On closer inspection, the nest was already occupied. It came 7 white spheres that appear to be made of stone. At first, Piccolo thought that Kami had gathered together the inactive Dragonballs, however when he extended his sense to the sphere, he realizes what they were.

He turned to Kami and said "These are the…"

"The Black Star Dragonballs, yes," Kami finished for him. "Up until now I just kept them on the Lookout since they weren't active and the chances of us ever reuniting were slim. However they should be destroyed now, in case the time for our fusion should ever arise."

Piccolo gave only the smallest nodded. The Black Star Dragonballs were too power and dangerous to be left lying around and forgotten. Without a second thought, he fired his eye beams at each of the orbs attempting to shatter the orb, only to find that he could not destroy them. He sent a glance to Kami, looking for answer.

Kami looked slightly sheepish before speaking, "Do to their unique nature, the Black Star Dragonballs have to be destroyed by both our energies. That is the main reason that I didn't destroy them myself." With that said, the two Namekian prepare themselves and in perfect unison destroyed the cursed Dragonballs.

With that done, Piccolo prepared himself to spit out the egg that would house his heir. He began by focus his energy, much the way his father had the evil King Piccolo had when he had been born. He focused both his ki and the ki of Nail both together and molded them in to the proper form. Their combined energies began to blend together and begin the process of making a new Namek. Suddenly, Piccolo's throat began to swell. He tilled his head back and then threw his head forward and expelled an egg slightly larger than a football. The egg landed right in to the nest that once held the Black Star Dragonballs. Piccolo took a couple of deep breaths. The ki it had take to produce the egg was quite high, nearly half of his ki. He then proceeded to cross his leg while still standing, going in to his famous floating meditation form.

"I assume you will be staying here till the egg hatch?" Kami asked

"Yes," was Piccolo's reply as he closed his eye and began to mediate to assist in regaining his energy. Kami stared at Piccolo for a moment, before turning around and leaving. Several minutes after Kami left, Piccolo open one of his eye and slowly look over at the egg. After several second, he returned to his mediation. The only noticeable difference was a small smile that appeared on his face.

Author Note: Yes I am back from the dead. Sorry I haven't update sooner but I will try to start working on this story more. Also to clarify the time is this story take place is around two months after the fight with Goku and Freiza on Namek. The Namek Dragonballs are charging and since I can't remember the exact time they take to recharge I am making them have 180 days (6 months) recharge time because it will help with my story. Also my story will have several new characters appearing. The first being Piccolo's son but he will be far from the last. Also there will several extra sagas and some major plot changes.

What does everyone think about the Black Star Dragonballs being destroyed? I might try to do DBGT but as is already obvious it will be different.
