Mori screamed in pain whilst covering her ears.
The demon screeched so loud that the alien's eardrums felt like they were about to burst. She growled in annoyance when she lifted her head to the screen, her eyes widening as what her fellow teammates were yelling at the demon, crying out her name before each sentence. The first of many was the one that got her attention, "Mori! I was the one who spilt ice-cream on your gi when we were five?"
The ginger tilted her head in confusion and scruntched her nose. She murmured, "I gave Goten a swirly for that."
Goten was the next to step up to the plate, barely dodging a grey hand from smacking him in the face. He yelled, "Mori! When I was mad at you for showing me up in front on my friends, I spit a loogy in your food when we were ten!" Mori gagged and hissed at the image of consuming such a vile thing.
Trunks blocked a punch and flew back, "Mori! Remember when you wore a skirt," Mori huffed, How could I forget? Those three perverts kept trying to look up it. Trunks continued, "Well, uh," He looked back at Piccolo, whom just dodged a kai beam, "I looked up your skirt for a dare." Goten joined in, "I did too!" Mori blushed a bright crimson that flowed well into her hair. Piccolo smacked the half-sayians upside their heads and muttered a threat before taking his battle stance once more.
She clenched her fist, "The little perverted punks!"
Vegeta landed on the ground, "Hey, brat! When you were, I think twelve or thirteen, I placed itching powder in your water and food after training and framed my son on it."
Mori was pulling at her hair now, "He was the one who did that? I was stuck at the look out for a week and a half! My throat burned for what felt like decades! Trunks was covered in brusies for two weeks as well. You three are so dead!"
Piccolo was breathing fairly hard from dodging and attempting to attack the demon. The landscape around him was in complete ruins. The valley they were in was nothing more than craters. Everybody was starting to slow down from fatigue. Even Gohan looked like he was going to pass out any minute now and it didn't look like that Mori was going to loose control.
Vegeta snarled, "Why isn't this girl blowing a gasket yet? I was sure that the itching powder would break her stupor."
The namek growled, "I should've known this wouldn't work. Her management over anger is better than mine." The two men and the two boys looked over at the namek with disbelief. He huffed, "I never said her anger wasn't explosive, she is just better at containing it than I do."
Goten sighed heavily, "What the hell are we suppose to do know?" Hearing the purest warrior swear didn't sway the others, although it was a great shock.
Kyo, who was standing a fairly good distance away, sent them a message through their heads, "I told you guys to cause a great emotional distress! It doesn't matter if its anger or despair, just do something!"
Gohan looked at the others around them, "Does anybody know how to make Mori cry?"
The group paused and all looked at Piccolo. The namek yelled, "Don't look at me!"
Trunks threw a kai blast at the approaching demon, "Er! Well, you did make her cry before you left..."
The namek looked away in despair and whispered, "Don't remind me..."
Gohan backed from the fight for only a few seconds, "Don't pick on Piccolo like that! Just-Ah!" He jumped over a kai attack, "Just pick an emotion and..."
Piccolo interrupted him. He spoke quickly, "You four fight and distract the demon. I need to think." The teens were about to object when he lifted up his hand to silence them. "I know Mori better than anyone of you. I raised her. I-I don't quite know what would set her off, but...but I can figure it out if I can think hard on it. Now go! Fight! Keep that bitch from destroying everything for...ten minutes."
His ten minute mark was almost up.
The namek had flown into the forest, pacing rapidly at his location. He could feel his combat partners loosing energy, making thinking on his task at hand a lot harder.
He thought to himself, Alright. Mori does get upset over a few things, but apparently that isn't causing her to get overly upset. I do not think getting her to cry would help in any way. I think the main cause of how the demon took her over was...when I made her cry. When she told me that she hated me...she probably thinks that I hate her as well...
Wait...Wait! I know what to do!
Trunks was thrown to the ground, landing next to Goten. Gohan and Vegeta were bleeding and bent over in fatigue. The four warriors were shaking horribly.
The demon chuckled, "This is what you get when you cheat. After I kill you four, and find your coward of a friend, I will kill the rest of your families, giving each one a slow and painful death."
"Tall and ugly, I haven't left the fight yet." The demon turned around and barred her fangs. She hissed and dived in for an attack. Piccolo dodged her with little effort. He took a deep breath.
"Mori," He called, "It's me, Piccolo! Listen, I know I haven't been the best teacher at times, especially before Gohan, Goku, Vegeta and I went to Namek! I shouldn't have slapped you and I regret doing so." He reflected a kai blast yet kept on his toes the whole time, running from place to place. He went on, "You are the world's most amazing warrior and although I never say it, I am extremely proud of you! Ever since I found you I knew you were special, even if I wasn't quite aware of it."
Gohan and Trunks looked up at Piccolo; the other two were listening intently.
Piccolo caught a kai beam to his arm and he grunted in pain. He clenched his hands and stood his ground. He looked straight at the demon controlled girl and yelled at the top of his lungs as a blast was headed straight for him. He made no move to get out of the way.
He yelled, "Mori! I think of you as a daughter I never thought I could posses and I just want to say..."
Water formed in Mori's eyes and streamed down her cheeks and onto her parted lips. Her hands were limp as she watched her sensei apologized for what he said and did. She cried at the thought that she actually impressed her teacher, making him proud. And now, now he was saying that she was a daughter to him.
She looked at the screen with eyes at widened with the next six words that came from his mouth before he was blasted from the beam.
"I love you, my dear daughter!"
She never thought that Piccolo would say those words, not in a million years. She would scoff at the ones who called Piccolo her father, would think it was just completely idiotic. But now, after she thought on it, she realized that...that he was her father. He kept her safe and warm, kept her feed and clothed, and made sure that no one laid a hair on her. He taught her practically every little thing she knows.
He was her father...she was his daughter, and this demon, this ass was hurting her dear parent.
As the demon approached the defeated namek and lifted him by his collar, Mori felt an extreme emotion that was a mix between anger and happiness.
She felt her power surging back through her fingers. She felt the heat of the kai and yelled into the empty cavern, "DO NOT! TOUCH! HIM! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
Sorry for the long wait. School just ended so I thought of adding a chapter! Hope it was to your liking. Also, my brother was playing a dragon ball Z game and I'm like, 'I'll write a chapter!'
