Daisuke vs King Piccolo

I don't own Digimon or Dragonball Z

Back on Pilaf's airship, King Piccolo suddenly gasped before he bent over in pain, clutching his head as Pilaf, Mai, and Shu were freaking out. "Your majesty what is wrong?" Piano asked worried.

"A headache?" Shu asked trembling in fear as sweat poured down Piccolo's face.

"Sire?" asked Piano as Piccolo looked up still trembling himself.

"He's gone….Tambourine has been killed. What's going on out there? This should not be happening," he said, struggling to believe Tambourine had been killed.

"No, Tambourine!" Piano cried in sorrow.

"What kind of creature is out there that can kill these people?" Pilaf asked. "It's not Goku, he was killed by Tambourine himself."

"I'm not sure I want to know sir," Mai replied as Piccolo growled and stood up.

"Pilaf!" he barked.

"Yes?" Pilaf asked in fear as King Piccolo smirked.

"Take this vessel to wherever Tambourine and Cymbal were killed. I'll destroy this new adversary myself!" he said confidently.

Meanwhile, back with Daisuke and Yajirobe, Daisuke wiped the blood from her hand as Yajirobe walked over.

"Thanks a lot. You totally left nothing left for me to eat for dinner, what am I supposed to eat now?" he asked her angrily.

"Don't know don't care," she answered. "And I didn't leave nothing for you to eat, there's a few pieces of him left over," she explained, pointing to the scattered remains of Tambourine which made Yajirobe scowl in disgust.

"I can't eat just that, I wanted to eat all of him. I even had everything set up," he said, looking over to a large branch hanging over a fire which made Daisuke sweatdrop upon seeing it.

"You already made a fire?"

"I tried them raw, but they don't just taste the same."

"Well as long as you keep that Dragonball around your neck another one of those guys are bound to show up," Daisuke said, making Yajirobe look down at the Dragonball around his neck.

Back on Pilaf's airship, King Piccolo was growling in anger as the airship flew through the sky.

"Two of my finest warriors were destroyed as if they were nothing more than mere amateurs. I don't know who is responsible for this outrage, but they will pay dearly for interfering with my plans."

"Oh wait," Pilaf said making Piano and King Piccolo look at him.

"What is it?" King Piccolo asked him.

"The Dragonball we've been chasing has been moving in odd patterns," he answered, walking over to the wall and pressing a button. The globe descended from the ceiling and he looked at it to see three Dragonballs clustered together headed towards a fourth. "Argh! It's just as I feared, according to the map, there are three Dragonballs clustered together and they are moving towards a fourth!" Piccolo scoffed at the panic in Pilaf's voice.

"Well, well, well. Does this mean that someone else is after the Dragonballs? Do we have some competition?"

"It looks that way. What now?" Pilaf asked.

Elsewhere, Roshi, Tien, and Chiaotzu were in the airplane flying towards another Dragonball.

"Hey, it's stopped," Chiaotzu said.

"It's near here master, we're close," Tien told Roshi who had three Dragonballs in his lap.

"I just hope that this Dragonball leads us to Daisuke," Roshi said as the airplane continued to fly until it landed on a small ledge.

"I don't like the looks of this," Chiaotzu said just before dozens of crows flew out of the cave and began to swarm the airplane.

"Argh, we're being attacked!" Roshi shouted as crows continued to attack the airplane.

"Chiaotzu!" Tien shouted at his friend.

"Right," he replied holding his finger out, and it glowed. The crows attacking the airplane were thrown away by an invisible force allowing the plane to land safely. Tien and Roshi then left the plane.

"Chiaotzu, you stay and guard the plane," Tien told him, and Chiaotzu nodded.

"We must be careful," Roshi told Tien as both entered the cave carefully. Continuing to walk deeper into the cave, two drops of water from the stalactites above fell and hit Roshi in the back of the neck, making him scream and Tien turned around.

"Master Roshi!" he shouted as he saw the old Turtle Hermit panting.

"I'm okay, keep going I'm fine," he told Tien who sighed. "I wonder if anyone would find this place habitable," he said as he and Tien looked around the cave.

"It's secluded enough for a base," Tien said when he then heard Roshi shout as he tripped. "Master?" he asked seeing Roshi covered in feathers before both looked down to see another Dragonball covered in feathers and twigs, Tien then picked it up and Roshi looked at the stars.

"One, two, three, four, five, hey it is the six star Dragonball, we found it," he said.

"Now all we need are three more," Tien replied. "This was way too easy, who would have hid it here?" he asked.

"It wasn't a human, that's for sure," Roshi answered before he held up a feather. "Those crows, see feathers,"

"Crows?" Tien asked.

"Maybe they picked it up from somewhere else and brought it here."

"That would explain on why the movement was so strange on the radar."

"True, and crows are attracted to shiny objects like our six star friend here," Roshi said, holding the Dragonball.

"I feel like we're being watched. Let's get out of here," Tien said and Roshi nodded and both headed back towards the airplane where Chiaotzu was waiting. Suddenly hundreds of crows began to attack them and they swatted at them.

"I never should have waxed my head!" Roshi shouted swinging his walking stick at the birds. "Shoo birds, go on shoo!"

"Let's make a run for it!" Tien shouted before he ran off.

"Best idea I've had all day!" Roshi shouted in reply as he followed Tien with the crows continuing to attack them. "That's my head not a bird feeder, scram!" he told the crows as they neared the exit.

"Here, this might help!" Chiaotzu shouted tossing his hat to Roshi and it landed on his bald head just as Tien jumped into the plane's cockpit.

"Master hurry!" Tien told him.

"Come on!" Chiaotzu shouted, and Roshi jumped into the cockpit just as the hatch closed and the plane flew off.

"We've managed to be lucky so far, we've collected four of the Dragonballs without too much trouble," Tien said.

"Speak for yourself, I hope this doesn't scar," Roshi said pointing to a plaster on the back of his head, making Chiaotzu chuckle. "King Piccolo doesn't appear to be in much of a hurry to expand his collection; I wonder what he is up to."

"Maybe he doesn't need them," Chiaotzu suggested.

"He's probably preoccupied with exterminating martial artists," Roshi replied as the Dragon Radar began to beep.

"The radar is flashing again," Chiaotzu said looking at it. "One, two, three, four, five…I count five dots," he said. "Tien turn around," he told his friend and the plane turned around.

"With only three Dragonballs left to find, you know it's possible this is the one Piccolo's henchmen stole before he killed Goku," Tien said.

"Then that means we're about to fight him first hand if you are right. If it happens I just hope we are ready," Roshi said.

"I'm sure we're going to win," Chiaotzu said optimistically.

"I'm afraid the odds of us winning a head on battle aren't too good. I think our best is to sneak in through the back door, surprise him and take the Dragonball while he's not looking; then the eternal dragon can defeat him," Roshi replied.

"That's too passive for my taste master. I say we fight him hand to hand and destroy him," Tien said.

"I understand how you feel Tien, but he's much stronger than you may think with our combined strength King Piccolo still has us at a disadvantage. Our best bet is to concentrate on bringing all the Dragonballs together, then we will let the eternal dragon destroy King Piccolo," Roshi explained.

"But I thought the purpose of gathering the Dragonballs was so we could revive Goku?" Tien asked.

"The eternal dragon only grants a single wish after all," Chiaotzu added.

"And once the dragon grants that wish the Dragonballs are scattered again, isn't that correct?" Tien asked.

"After one year, we can gather the orbs back together again. And then we can revive Goku, I hope," Roshi answered.

"What about the containment wave?" Tien suggested shocking Roshi.

"No! That's a foolish idea Tien Shinhan!" he scolded.

"Forgive me master, but wasn't that what Master Mutaito used to capture Piccolo wasn't it?" Tien asked him.

"In exchange for his life, but I'm not sure it would work. If we failed then only Yamcha and Krillin would be left to carry on the fight, and they are no match against King Piccolo," Roshi answered.

"I understand," Tien said. "For master to have such a reaction to my suggestion I'm beginning to think there is more to the Evil Containment Wave then I realised," he thought.

"I can't believe this is happening, they're on the move again and now they have four of the Dragonballs!" Pilaf shouted as he looked at the globe showing four dots moving.

"Calm down, they can gather all the balls they want but they can't use the power without all seven," Piccolo told him, holding up the four star ball. "Let's not interrupt their work, allow them to gather the remainder of the Dragonballs, saves us the trouble. Then we will take them in one fell swoop. In the meantime we will focus our attention on those who took the lives of Cymbal and Tambourine."

"I'm starving!" Yajirobe complained as he and Daisuke sat on the grass with Daisuke looking at the sky.

"Sky is all clear, I don't see any more of Tambourine or Cymbal's kind yet."

"You said someone would come after me if I kept this," Yajirobe said, looking at the Dragonball around his neck.

"I'll go take another look around." Daisuke stood up and pulled out the Dragon Radar.

"Let me know if you find someone," Yajirobe told her as Daisuke turned on the radar and her eyes widened in shock.

"Another Dragonball is nearby."

"Another one?" Yajirobe asked as both began to look around.

"This thing says it's right on top of us," Daisuke answered before both looked up to see Pilaf's airship above them and descending towards them.

Roshi, Tien, and Chiaotzu meanwhile were flying after the fifth Dragonball.

"The fifth Dragonball is around this area," Roshi said, looking at the radar. He pressed the top of the radar three more times to see two more blips on the edge of the screen. "This could very well be the Dragonball King Piccolo's subordinate took away from Goku; take us down let's say 'hi."

"What is it about the Evil Containment Wave that frightens master Roshi? Why is he so adamant against using a technique which has been proven to work against King Piccolo? I have to see it, just once in my life. I must know its power," Tien thought.

"Tien! What's the matter with you?" Roshi asked making him look at him.

"Nothing. Nothing at all," he answered before flying down towards the location of the fifth Dragonball.

Back with Daisuke, she and Yajirobe stared up at Pilaf's airship. "What is that? It's huge!"

"King Piccolo we have arrived at our destination," Mai said on speakers. Both fighters on the ground heard her words clearly.

"King Piccolo?" Yajirobe asked in confusion even as Daisuke growled and clenched her fists.

"No Mai, that's the switch for the exterior speakers!" Shu told Mai realising her mistake.

"Oh no!" she then flipped the other switch. "King Piccolo, I'm sorry to disturb you but you asked to be notified as soon as we arrived."

"Ah, very good," Piccolo said to himself.

"King Piccolo? I think I hear that name before," Yajirobe said.

"He's the one behind Tambourine and Cymbal who were after the Dragonballs!" Daisuke shouted angrily, gritting her teeth.

"If I remember correctly, I heard his name mentioned in my village. I believe it was in a story I was told once," Yajirobe said. A beat passed before he cried out in sheer terror. "I remember!" He took the Dragonball off from around his neck and placed it around Daisuke's. "Here you keep it, it's yours!" he told her before running off.

"Wait! Didn't you say you wanted to eat him?" Daisuke asked, confused at Yajirobe's actions.

"Oh, forget about that. I'm stuffed, I couldn't eat another bite," he answered.

"Wait, a few minutes ago you were hungry."

"I lost my appetite, see ya!" The overweight samurai proceeded to flee.

"Okay….that was weird," Daisuke mumbled. "Oh well, Piccolo is coming and it's time I avenge Goku!" Getting ready for battle, she looked up at Pilaf's airship.

"There's somebody down there, give me a second to land the plane and you can destroy them," Pilaf told Piccolo.

"Don't bother, it won't be necessary," he informed Pilaf who looked down at the ground with binoculars. A moment later he turned his gaze towards Daisuke.

"Hey, that's the girl who won the Martial Arts Tournament just a few days!" Pilaf exclaimed, making Piccolo smirk.

"So, that little child is responsible for killing both Tambourine and Cymbal?" he asked before he began to laugh before grunting in anger. "Both Cymbal and Tambourine fell in disgrace if their demise was at her hands. I am not so weak that I cannot deal with a child." He floated over the side of the airship and headed straight down to the earth below.

"That human stands no chance," Piano said laughing evilly. "His majesty will easily destroy her." Piccolo landed in front of Daisuke who was snarling.

"King Piccolo, at last we meet," she said. "You were the one who created Tambourine who killed my best friend Goku and stole his Dragonball, aren't you?"

"That's me. And I see that you have another Dragonball around your neck," Piccolo answered.

"You monster, your hands have Goku's blood on them just as much as Tambourine's did."

"Can you forgive me?" Piccolo asked laughing cruelly. "You are unbelievable!"

"What's so funny?"

"You are. I believed I was about to face a great warrior, but now I find that it is a common animal who has killed two of my strongest soldiers," he answered, making Daisuke smirk.

"You got that right pal, Tambourine made such beautiful noises when I blew him to pieces, and now you're going to follow him and Cymbal. But first you are going to hand over Goku's Dragonball."

"We shall see," Piccolo replied as his cape blew in the wind.

Meanwhile Yajirobe was hiding behind a tree as he watched the stand-off.

"No. It's him, King Piccolo, he's here to destroy all of us," he said in fear as Piccolo continued to laugh.

"You poor simpleton. You have no idea who I am do you? I am the abomination that holds your nightmares, soon you will call me master."

"That will never happen!" Daisuke responded defiantly.

"It never fails; for some reason every time I meet a martial artist I have this incredible urge to destroy them. Even one as tiny and pathetic as you."

"I might surprise you."

"See ya Daisuke," Yajirobe mumbled to himself as Daisuke charged towards Piccolo.

"You're going to pay for all the pain you've brought upon those I care about!"

"She's fast!" Piccolo thought astounded as Daisuke blurred from sight before appearing in front of his face. She kicked him in the face, sending him flying back. Reacting to Daisuke jumping after him, he reached at her with his arm. However, Daisuke used her tail and flipped around the outstretched arm before she was punched by Piccolo's other arm, sending her flying back before she righted herself. Rebounding off the ground, she punched Piccolo in the face, sending him to the ground which scared Pilaf, Shu, and Mai.

"Smooth. Good one Daisuke, but if that's the King Piccolo I've heard of this fight is far from over," Yajirobe said to himself.

"That kid is going to win, let's get out of here!" Pilaf shouted.

"Calm down. Did you really thing that his majesty could be defeated? He is just getting warmed up," said Piano with an evil chuckle.

"Don't let down your guard Daisuke. It's a trap; sooner or later he's going to strike," Yajirobe mumbled, and sure enough Piccolo slowly got to his feet chuckling.

"What you did was unprecedented, I had no idea I could be knocked down. You are good, it's obvious my minions were no match for your level of skill. You are the reason I have exterminated the martial arts society. Anyone with your level of skill…deserves to be terminated!" he explained as he removed his cape and cloak, revealing an indigo martial arts uniform with a light purple obi. "You have such great strength, I shall try my absolute best to keep up." His eyes glowed briefly, confusing Daisuke before she saw smoke appear in front of Piccolo. It blew towards her like a gale force wind and Piccolo chuckled as Daisuke felt her arms stretch out.

"What's going on here? I can't move," she said through gritted teeth as Piccolo continued to chuckle callously. The wind continued to blow at Daisuke who tried to move towards Piccolo. With great effort, she moved forward slow step by slow step.

"Now, let's try this once more," said Piccolo as he ran towards her at incredible speed. He kicked her in the jaw, sending her flying high into the sky. Piccolo jumped after her and punched Daisuke in the face, sending her rocketing to the earth where she crashed, creating a large hole. Piccolo landed beside the hole and reached in, pulling Daisuke out by her collar. "Good, you're still alive. I was hoping to enjoy this a bit longer." He punched Daisuke in the face, grinding his fist into her face before pulling away. Daisuke's nose was bleeding and blood was seeping from her mouth. "What? No witty comeback?"

"Wild Howling!" Daisuke shouted, firing a Ki blast from her mouth which hit Piccolo in the face causing him to let Daisuke go. Jumping forward, Daisuke rammed her head into his chest, sending him skidding back. Piccolo snarled as he grabbed Daisuke and slammed her into a nearby rock before driving an elbow into Daisuke's heart, shattering the rock and taking the wind out of Daisuke who coughed up blood.

"You lousy human! I shall make you pay for that," Piccolo growled. Daisuke grunted and rolled onto her stomach before holding her hand up.

"Hadoken," she rasped out, firing three white spheres of Ki right at Piccolo. To her shock, he casually swatted them aside. She had put a lot of energy into those attacks, knocking them aside shouldn't have been so easy. Each blast could have annihilated Tambourine completely. Piccolo then held up his finger which arched with electricity before firing a yellow and pink beam of Ki right at Daisuke. Fortunately she jumped out of the way and began to catch her breath.

"You've still some fight in you. Good," Piccolo said before he fired another beam of Ki at the rock Daisuke was beside. She was thrown away by the force of the explosion. Gasping, she tried to run for cover to gain a chance for recovery. Sadly it was not to be; Piccolo continued to destroy each rock and piece of cover before she could reach it.

"No, Daisuke don't come towards me!" Yajirobe shouted as Daisuke head to a large boulder near the tree he was hiding behind, but Piccolo again destroyed the rock, sending Daisuke flying back from the force of the explosion. Daisuke fell to her knees and panted in exhaustion. She looked back at Piccolo who laughed before continuing to fire Ki blasts at her, her barely able to dodge.

"Now that's what I call entertainment!" Piccolo said, laughter as his lips as Daisuke panted heavily.

"He's stronger than I first thought. This is bad, really, really bad," she thought.

"Have you run out of energy? Well too bad the fun has just begun!" Piccolo shouted, blurring from sight. He appeared in front of Daisuke, but she dodged his attack barely. Jumping away from Piccolo, she tried to gain some ground when suddenly she was pulled towards him by some force. Piccolo drove his fist into her gut, taking the wind out of her. Throwing her to the ground, he kicked her away like a soccer ball after her initial crash causing her to roll across the ground

"It's over," Yajirobe said in fear, but Daisuke pulled herself to her feet.

"This isn't over just yet," she growled to Piccolo. "I'm going to destroy you."

"Your misplaced confidence is refreshing," Piccolo said laughing. "Though I find this amusing, you must know that there is no escape, the only choice you have left is to choose how you die."

"No!" Daisuke shouted.

"Despite your shortcomings, you're a defiant one. It has been centuries since I saw such fire in someone's eyes. I am fortunate, I'm stronger than you. Bow before me human!" Piccolo demanded, Daisuke spread her legs and held her hands in front of her terrifying Piccolo. "No, wait!" he shouted.

"Ka….Me…!" Daisuke shouted as a gold sphere of Ki appeared between her cupped hands.

"Wait, that's not the Evil Containment Wave," Piccolo thought.

"Hadoken!" Daisuke shouted, firing a gold beam of Ki right towards Piccolo. It hit him dead on, creating a massive explosion and a cloud of smoke. "Got 'em. That was a direct hit," she said before the smoke cleared and Piccolo was seen unharmed, shocking Daisuke and Yajirobe. "No…im…impossible," Daisuke whispered horrified.

"It's about time to say goodbye girl," Piccolo said. Daisuke roared and charged at him, throwing a punch at his head, but he avoided it easily before grabbing her arm and leg. "I was wondering what would break first, your spirt….or your body." He then lifted Daisuke over his head before slamming Daisuke's back down on his knee hard. Daisuke screamed as she felt agony surge through her back and Piccolo dropped her to the ground where she remained unable to move. "You don't look so heroic now," Piccolo mocked the paralysed girl who grunted.

"I'm not finished yet," she said. Daisuke could sense that somehow her back was unbroken, but the force of the blow had stunned her entire body. Piccolo kicked her again, sending her flying. He fired a Ki blast at her and it exploded, causing Daisuke to fall to the ground unmoving, Piccolo then walked over to her and scoffed. "Her hearts stopped, it's over. At least I had fun." Piccolo then ripped off the Dragonball from Daisuke's neck before picking up his cloak and cape and flying back up to the airship which then flew off.

"Daisuke?" Yajirobe asked, walking over to Daisuke. He pressed his ear to her chest and heard a faint heartbeat. "Hey, she's alive. Her heart only stopped beating momentarily," he said to himself.
