You're Welcome
Summary: (Moana!AU says what?)
Ok, so your boat broke but that's fine! This is fine.
There's an island, you have water and— omfg that the Demon King?
You've been looking for this loser!
Umi's eyes instantly went to the bundle of raggedy person sitting by the outcropping. He didn't look like much from here, but she could tell, just like the stories Grandmama told her. This must be him. Alright, deep breathes. Just say it like you practiced, then you grab him by the ear, and drag him to where he's needed. Everything will be fine.
She marched straight to the pile of man, set herself in front of him in a wide stance, and said in her clearest voice, "Demon King Piccolo, Immortal, Ruler of Land Below; I am Umi of Southern North Village and—"
"Conqueror of the Earth."
"W-what?" She had practiced the line so much, hearing it interrupted in a gravelly rumble, threw her for a loop. Refocusing, she looked down. A deep brow line and hard eyes met hers. Umi cleared her throat, "What did you say?"
"Demon King Piccolo." He unfolded his arms. "Immortal." Uncrossed his legs. "Ruler of Land Below." And He stood up. And up. And Up. "Conqueror of the Earth." The rags he wore fluttered in the ocean air, flickers of pink and green demonic flesh showing through.
Like I'm seeing straight to the muscle tissue… Umi mentally shook herself. Doesn't matter how tall he is. She leaned her head back, looking him in the eye; her neck twinged, still bruised from the crash. Her home was in peril and this demon was the cause!
"I am Umi of Southern North Village," Umi jabbed him in the chest with her oar, "and you are coming with me to fix the Dragonballs that You destroyed!" Letting it all out in a rush, she glared up attempting to pull him with her through pure force of will.
"Dragonballs?" Piccolo met her gaze unflinchingly and stopped the offending oar in a steely grip. A small part of Umi's mind started to send danger messages from being so close to a looming demon. His voice ground out, "I believe what you meant to say is Thank You."
"Thank you?!"
A small smirk twitched onto the Demon King's lips, "You're welcome."
