"18, we know you don't support the idea of that," Krillin replied. "Why does it bother you so much that she is learning to fight?" 18 sighed and at first didn't seem to have an answer.

"I don't have an answer to that. I'll allow you and Roshi to train the right way…just promise me that if I want her quit, it stays…" she replied. Krillin was surprised at 18's sudden change of mind but he nodded. He was obvious that no matter what 18 attempted, Anzu would try training without Krillin's or Roshi's help. Anzu meanwhile, decided to head upstairs and go to sleep next to her already younger sister. She knew she'd be in trouble if she got caught listening onto their conversation, it wouldn't be fun. As she laid down, she looked at her younger sister and smiled.

"Sis, I promise to train hard to protect you, Mom, and Dad…" she whispered. Meanwhile, back outside of the Kame House…

"You know what would make Anzu happy is if you were to help train her," Krillin told 18. She smiled at the thought.

Now:

Kame House (night)-

"No, since I do not like the idea, I won't help. Though, she'll have my support and she knows it," the android replied. Krillin smiled to himself as 18 then stood up and walked inside. He though stayed outside for a little while longer, at the night.

Normally, eleven years ago, someone could look up at the sky and see the moon out. Now, it still remained missing from where Piccolo had blown it up to cease Gohan from transforming into a Great Ape. Krillin seemed to look for to the stars for advice. He honestly had no idea what to start teaching his daughter and he wanted to train Anzu more himself than always asking Roshi for help.

Maybe…I can teach her to fly. That should help her gain control over her ki attacks, he thought to himself. He knew that he'd eventually have to seek help but tomorrow…he knew that he couldn't be gentle on Anzu like he normally had been. Starting tomorrow…would begin a series of training exercises very similar to the ones he did when he was a teenager.

---

"Dad…it is six in the morning! Where are we going?" Anzu groaned. She obviously hadn't woken up so early before. Krillin decided to take the girl to do some of the training he had received when he was a teenager. Obviously, he'd be lighter on her considering her age and in fear of what 18 might do if Anzu started to complain too much. 18 had agreed if Krillin could take the girl for two months training on a nearby island, as long as on the weekends they came home. 18 couldn't help but smile at her oldest daughter's figure.

She had her black hair pulled out of her face again but was holding her luggage, which was a week supply of clothes and food for her and Krillin. Krillin was inside saying goodbye to Marron as 18 and Anzu stood outside. Krillin would be flying Anzu there and probably flying Anzu back until she could control her ki. Krillin walked outside as her heard his daughter's complaining and had to laugh to himself.

"To train, so come on!" He picked her up and took off in the sky, though not before waving goodbye to 18. Along the way, Anzu had fallen asleep in her father's arms, which he found to be rather odd. Ever since Anzu was a toddler, she enjoyed when her parents flew and she seemed so tired at the current time, she trusted her father enough to take them to their location as she slept.

As he neared the island where they'd be training, it completely shut off from the rest of the world. While bigger than Kame Island, it was three miles wide and four miles wide, so it would be perfect for training. The landscape had trees and a small stream that went through the middle of the island. The Sun started to peak over the horizon, as Krillin landed and shook his sleeping daughter, to wake her up.

Training Island-

"Wait, you want me to run around the whole island with this bag?!" Anzu asked in complete shock. She looked at her father as if he was insane. She wore tan shorts, a black top, and typical shoes, while Krillin stood dressed in a red shirt, tan pants, and black shoes.

"Yes, I want you to run around it with that bag. Even if you have to walk to finish, I want to see you finish," Krillin replied. The former monk had placed several large stones in an old bag for Anzu to carry around as she ran. He recalled the turtle shells that Roshi had made him and Goku wear. While he wasn't going to be training Anzu with those shells, he recalled that it helped the two increase their speed. While Anzu had understood the fighting form very well, she lacked speed and strength at times. So, he decided it would be best for her to run with a weighted bag for the morning training. He had made the bag extremely light, as it only weighed several pounds, but it seemed Anzu wasn't too thrilled with the idea.

"But Dad…" she groaned. Why couldn't he focus on teaching her to fly or something?

"Anzu! You wanted to train, so go or no breakfast…" Krillin threatened. Anzu nodded and the girl took off in the marked direction path that Krillin had made out. Obviously, Krillin was going to feed Anzu breakfast, but he couldn't find a way to get the girl to listen to him.

"I wonder how long it will take her to finish…" he smiled at the thought. He had set up the Capsule House and walked inside, as he started to cook breakfast for the two.

---

Anzu panted as she had walked most of the island and her stomach growled in hunger. She finally managed to find her way back to the Capsule House that her father had set up, only though she saw him outside, seemingly practicing martial arts moves. She rubbed her sleepy eyes and smelt food coming from inside the house. So, her father did fix breakfast and she smiled. Krillin had heard her approaching a good distance back and he saw that his daughter looked as if she had ran for months on end. He also knew that it wasn't possible for her even yet to run the island entirely.

"Anzu, over here," he yelled, as he stopped practicing and walked with his daughter inside of the house.

---

After breakfast, Anzu had fallen asleep and Krillin couldn't help but smile at the sleeping girl, who was sleeping like a rock. He sat on a couch in the 'living room' of the Capsule House and flipped through the television channels, though not really watching any of them.

RING!

Krillin heard the phone going off and walked to pick up the phone, though he was about to get a surprise on the other line.

"Hello?" Krillin asked.

"Krillin! Heard you were off training?" A teenager's voice boomed on the other side. The former monk smiled and recognized the voice as Gohan's.

"Gohan, nice to hear from you and I cannot say the training is going…very well. The trainee has been sleeping for the past three hours…" he looked off at Anzu.

"Well, I wanted to ask you something," Gohan said between chuckling on the line. It seemed Krillin was having a difficult position that he was in, at least trying to train Goten and Videl.

"What, Gohan?"

"I was hoping maybe you come and visit Bulma's place the day after tomorrow. I mean, I understand if you can't, consider what 18 did last time…" Gohan's voice trailed off and Krillin's memory flashed back to six years ago. The memory wasn't very pleasant because it was shortly after 18 got pregnant with Anzu; she ended up blasting Vegeta through several buildings after he piped off on an android being pregnant. Vegeta was still determined to settle the score and Krillin didn't want to relive that experience again.

"Sure, Gohan, I'll be there. I doubt 18 with want to attend anyway and I think it would be nice to bring the children along as well…" he trailed off at the thought. Gohan let loose a laugh.

"Man, I know Goten and Trunks will surely enjoy the company. Plus, while we are there, we can have a friendly duel between us…"

"Count me out Gohan. One hit by a Saiyan and we'll have to make sure the hospital as room," Krillin started laughing, while Gohan on the other end smiled.

"Well, see you then. Bye."

"Bye, Gohan," Krillin hung up the phone and he stood thinking. It would greatly please him to bring Marron and Anzu to Bulma's house, but he got the sick feeling that 18 may not approve Marron or Anzu being around Vegeta. He sighed and thought maybe it would be a good time to start teaching Anzu how to fly. If she wasn't able to attend the party, at least Anzu could practice at Kame House.

---

"So, it is called the Bukujutsu?" Anzu asked, as she and Krillin stood outside the Capsule House.

"Yes, it is like getting using your ki to blast someone…but first, we need to work on you slowly being able to control more of your power within you…" Krillin explained. They sat on the grass, as Anzu nodded; being somewhat confused but still focused her attention on her father. He placed his hands together and easily brought out a small amount of ki in his hand. "See?" He asked.

"Oh okay!" Anzu replied happily as she focused and she almost wanted to fire a ki blast, but she continued to focus harder. After an hour, Anzu was able to produce the same ki amount within her hands. Though, she was sweating slightly on her forehead. "Dad, why did it take so long for me to form the energy like you did when I can perform ki blasts?" She asked a sound of annoyance in her voice. Krillin was caught off guard by the question. He figured that it had to deal with Master Roshi showing some form of ki or teaching…or her ki still remained pretty hidden. He noticed though, her power level did increase a bit and he grinned.

"I don't know. Though, I think it is time that you learn to fly now," he smiled. Anzu giggled and went to stand up, only as she slumped back down to the ground. Krillin raised a worry eyebrow as Anzu seemingly laughed at herself.

"Don't worry Dad! I'm just a bit tired is all," she replied, as the former monk nodded. "So, how do we to the Bukujutsu?!" Krillin scratched his head and smiled.

"It is like putting your ki beneath you and you control it to move around in the air," he replied. Anzu seemed confused.

"What…?" Anzu asked. Krillin smacked his hand into head. This was going to take a lot of demonstrations…

By the afternoon, Anzu had been able to grasp the ability of flying. She though had fallen asleep shortly after eating dinner, obviously worn out from the first day of training. Krillin couldn't help but notice how easily Anzu was able to understand what he was teaching, despite it took himself many years to achieve what she currently had now. He was also shocked to learn that Roshi had taught Anzu how to sense ki. Obviously, the girl had been doing a lot more sneaking around with Roshi and he could understand why. Tomorrow, they'd be putting her ability to fly distances to use, because he'd be taking her to Kame House to practice flying and talk with 18 about the party going on at Bulma's.

---

"Come on Anzu, at this rate the party will be over if we ever make it home!" Krillin yelled towards his daughter, who was flying at her best ability. The former monk had always been so caught up in the ability fly at his maximum when he was with the Z-Senshi, he didn't realize that Anzu was forcing all of her ki into flying and keeping up with her father.

"O-Okay…" she yelled back, as her voice sounded dry through the gush of wind on her face. Though, she didn't complain this time. It felt so wonderful to be able to fly and not having one of her parents hold her. Of course, she also wished her father could at least carry her part of the journey back home. Finally when they arrived, 18 and Krillin seemed to be having a not so friendly discussion about the party at Bulma's.

"Come on, why can't I take Marron and Anzu?" Krillin asked a hint of whining in his voice.

"I don't want them anywhere near Vegeta!" 18 snapped. 18 obviously were taking the question very seriously, as the two children sat eating lunch with Master Roshi. It seemed Krillin wouldn't be able to let the two be able to fly with Goten or Trunks like he planned.

"But mom, I want to go," Anzu added in, as she placed her drink down on the table. 18, Roshi, and Krillin looked at Anzu in complete shock. "I want to go and see Goten again. I really could care less about Trunks, because he thinks he is a hot shot just cause he is older than me…" she added in. 18 had to smile at Anzu's comment about that. Anzu was only two years younger than Trunks and a year younger than Goten, which she often tried her best to annoy Trunks any chance she got. When Anzu was three and Trunks was five, the two started their rivalry after Trunks said he was smarter and stronger than Goten or Anzu. Anzu since then applied herself to reading books and while she didn't always understand things clearly, she proved to manage to trick Trunks into them taking a test, which the three children all failed terribly. Since then, it seemed Anzu must have wanted to win against Trunks in something. It appeared 18 and Anzu agreed that if they couldn't get back on Vegeta, why not take it out on his son?

"Okay, Anzu, you can go with your father. Though, Marron stays here with me," 18 answered.

"What, why?" Krillin complained.

"I don't want her mind to be tainted with images of you two trying to spar against everyone…" 18 teased and walked from the room. It appeared the law had been set and Marron looked around at Anzu and Krillin, who both seemed upset she wasn't going to be company with everyone tomorrow nor 18.

"Daddy, let's play!" Marron simply stated, in a cheerful voice. Krillin's mood seemed lightened and Anzu's didn't as Krillin picked up Marron and walked from the room to spend some time with his younger daughter. Roshi remained silent during the time and noticed Anzu getting up from the table, obviously angered by what just happened, shooting a dirty look towards her parents who were now playing with Marron. She turned to walk out the kitchen until Roshi decided to talk to the girl. That seemed to be happening a lot as late…

"Anzu, where are you going?" The old man asked.

"Outside," she replied coldly back.

"Oh no you aren't, not until I talk with you…" he replied. Anzu groaned and looked at Roshi, as he made her sit back down at the table.

"About what?" She asked.

"About being jealous," Roshi replied.

"I'm not jealous," Anzu snapped back. Obviously, she was. Roshi sighed and looked at the girl.

"I know you are. Now, I know you're upset that your mother won't come with you and Krillin to Bulma's party tomorrow, but you shouldn't be rude to others because you are angry," he lectured.

"Whatever…" Anzu replied and as she stormed by her parents getting their attention and Marron's, who seemed to be confused. Roshi sighed and he knew what was eating at the girl. It had been that way since Marron was born, even though Roshi knew that Anzu loved her younger sister, it seemed as Marron was doing more things, Anzu always tried to draw attention back on herself.

Krillin sighed and looked at 18, who still had her eyes where her daughter stormed off outside to.

"I'll go talk with her…" Krillin started to get up from the floor, but 18 stopped him.

"I will. I think she is just confused is all…" 18 replied and she walked from the house, seeing her daughter throwing rocks into the ocean. These were always the harder times for the android, because Anzu was very similar to Krillin in many ways and she also shared a closer relationship with him, while 18 always shared a closer bond with Marron. It just seemed to work out that way and it often led to some of the trouble Anzu would get into with her parents.

"Anzu, come here…" 18 stated, as she walked to wear her daughter was standing near the water's edge.

"What?" The girl answered back, not looking at her mother.

"What is wrong?" 18 asked.

"Oh nothing…" Anzu stated as she walked away from her mother and back into the house. 18 rolled her eyes and also took notice of the attitude she had just been given. Something Anzu had gained from her mother at times. Krillin saw Anzu come into the house and storm upstairs, leaving 18 in a gloomy mood as she walked back into the house.

"Krillin…you are still willing to let me train her some, right?" 18 asked, a smile appearing on her face. Krillin gulped for a second and nodded.

"Yes, why…?" The former monk asked.

"Oh…I think we'll enjoy a small fight…" she stated. Obviously the only 18 was going to get Anzu to talk before they left to the party was a friendly duel between mother and daughter, which Marron and Krillin would also enjoy.

Coming soon, "Party at Bulma's!" Please review!
