The Fall of a Demon

I don't own Digimon or Dragonball Z

"Is it over?" Krillin asked as the building behind him and the others collapsed.

"Daisuke?" Goku asked, noticing his fiancée hadn't moved from her spot and was unharmed. He sighed in relief.

"She won," Yamcha said happily before Roshi looked at Piccolo.

"No, she didn't," he said, and Yamcha and the others looked to see the smoke clearing and Piccolo still alive. Only his outfit and turban were ruined.

"I knew it was too good to be true," Daisuke said, looking at a visibly angry Piccolo.

"You have failed; you think your simple parlour tricks could destroy me? But as you can see, I'm still here."

"Yeah, I know. Are you going to float up there all day, or can we continue this fight?" Daisuke asked, and Piccolo obliged, floating down to the stage and still growling in anger.

"Time's wasting, so go ahead and impress me." The two fighters stared each other down.

"I don't like this," Goku said, tone brittle with nerves.

"Daisuke launched a devastating attack that was nothing short of spectacular. However, by extreme luck or extreme stamina, Junior has survived and he doesn't seem happy," the announcer said before looking at Piccolo closer.

"What if everyone recognises him?" Tien asked.

"Then things are about to get ugly," Yamcha answered.

"Ya know, he looks a lot like King Piccolo," Launch spoke up, and the people around her looked at her before looking at Piccolo. He began laughing.

"That's King Piccolo, we're doomed!" a member of the crowd shouted, which caused the crowd to begin panicking.

"Silence you worms!" Piccolo shouted, silencing the crowd. "I am King Piccolo reincarnated! Let it be known throughout the world, once I have defeated Daisuke I will be your King once again. Not only has King Piccolo been reborn, but his reign of terror as well." He resumed laughter, causing the crowd to panic and flee for their lives, leaving only Daisuke and her friends, along with Kami and the Ring Announcer.

"What, did you say Piccolo?" King Furry asked a soldier who had ran into his office.

"Yes sire."

"The horror…I must warn the public." King Furry thought.

"Well this is just perfect, something we didn't need," Goku said, but Daisuke smiled at the turn of events. The announcer looked around the entire area to find it deserted, causing him to freak out and jump over the wall.

"Attention ladies and gentlemen, if you can hear my voice. Run, it's true; the fighter known as Junior is in fact King Piccolo," he shouted frantically.

"Alright, break time is over. No more distractions," Piccolo said.

"Bulma. you and the others get out of here. I can't do this with you still in harm's way," Daisuke told her friends.

"Okay," Bulma said.

"Sorry, but it looks like you've just lost your audience," Launch told the announcer before leaving and walking over to the others.

"Daisuke, get out of there," Krillin pleaded with her.

"Sorry, but I have to fight him. I won't let this world be destroyed."

"Why don't you reserve passing judgement until you've seen my latest technique?" Piccolo replied before the ground beneath him started to shake, sending debris into the air. Piccolo's body began to glow.

"This isn't good," Tien said. Moments later he was proven right as Piccolo grew in size until he was a giant, leaving Daisuke looking up at him in shock.

"Whoa, that's big," she said.

"From up here you look very small," Piccolo said, laughing.

"Isn't that against the rules!?" Launch asked, shaking the announcer.

"I'm afraid there's no rule about getting bigger," he answered.

"We left the rules a long time ago," Bulma said as Daisuke got ready to continue the fight. Piccolo threw a punch that Daisuke jumped to avoid before Piccolo swung his other arm, trying to swat her away. He missed when she flew out of the way.

"I'm allergic to flying debris!" Bulma shouted angrily while Daisuke continued to dodge Piccolo. He continued his efforts to stomp on her until she was right by the edge of the stage, and Piccolo threw a punch towards her. She dodged, appearing behind Piccolo who threw a kick at her. In an instant she blurred from sight.

"Nice speed," Roshi praised.

"Missed me!" Daisuke shouted before Piccolo suddenly swung his arm, sending Daisuke crashing to the ground. She groaned.

"Daisuke wake up!" Bulma shouted while Piccolo walked towards the prone Daisuke.

"Get out of the way, hurry!" Krillin shouted.

"Say goodbye," Piccolo said, lifting his foot to squash Daisuke.

"Let me help Daisuke!" Tien shouted, causing Piccolo to look at him and allowing Daisuke to get to her feet.

"No Tien, this isn't your fight," she replied.

Tien's eyes widened. "Are you crazy Daisuke? This isn't the time to think about the match! The world is at stake!"

"You're right. If it was just the match, I'd say that we all jump him. But I was the one who defeated the first King Piccolo. I want the chance to close this chapter myself, one on one. If I lose, you and the others are up Tien. So save your strength."

"Quite the speech. You'll lose more than your life, puny human, by the time I'm through with you," Piccolo sneered.

"Junior has accomplished an amazing feat; he's increased his size without reducing his speed," Roshi said.

"Your size doesn't intimidate me and it won't help you," Daisuke told Piccolo.

"Are you certain of that?" he asked her.

"You bet I am." She ran in between Piccolo's legs, avoiding blasts of energy Piccolo fired from his mouth. Jumping into the air, she kicked him in the back of the knee, making him fall onto his butt. Daisuke grabbed one of his fingers.

"Amazing," Tien said in awe, watching as Daisuke threw Piccolo over her head and he landed on the other side of the stage.

"Only she could do something like that," Goku said with a chuckle.

"Did your training include a course on how to defy the laws of physics?" Roshi asked Kami.

"What do you mean Master?" Krillin asked confused.

"After expending a great deal of energy with her Kamehadoken, she was able to topple a giant," Roshi answered.

"You insolent maggot," Piccolo growled, getting back to his feet before he continued to try and punch Daisuke. She barely managed to dodge each attack and jumped back when Piccolo punched at the ground. Quickly, she ran up his arm before jumping and kicking Piccolo in his right eye, making him roar in pain, holding his injured eye and falling to one knee. Daisuke leapt at Piccolo again, but at the last moment he opened his uninjured eye and fired a beam of Ki at her knee, making her wince and fall to the ground.

"That was a good try but it won't do you any good," Piccolo said. He lifted his foot up and crushed it down on her even as she struggled.

"She was a good warrior," Oolong said sadly before he and the rest saw Daisuke lifting Piccolo's foot, Piccolo trying to keep her underneath.

"You can do it Daisuke!" Goku encouraged her.

"Don't give up!" Yamcha shouted.

"I'm not going to be squashed like some common fly," Daisuke growled, pushing Piccolo away and he landed on his butt, growling at Daisuke.

"I hate you!"

"I told you that your size didn't matter. All it's done has made you a bigger target," Daisuke replied with a small smirk, infuriating Piccolo.

"You think one lucky throw is an accomplishment!?" he demanded, standing up.

"Why do I get the feeling you're about to get taller?" Daisuke squeaked, and she was proven right as Piccolo's body arched with electricity before growing even larger.

"What do you think?" Piccolo asked.

"We're in trouble," Tien said.

"Unbelievable, he's as big as a volcano and he's about to erupt!" the announcer screamed as he and the others ran for cover.

"Daisuke, show him that size doesn't always matter," Goku told her, making Piccolo laugh.

"It is over!" he declared, his evil laughter echoing. "Daisuke, where is your confidence now?"

"Given Junior's size it would be hard pressed to call this a match; at any moment this can turn into a slaughter," the announcer said.

"My fingernail is bigger than your entire body, give up runt," Piccolo demanded. Daisuke simply smiled.

"Are you kidding, I was waiting for this very moment; the bigger they are the hard they fall Piccolo," she said, jumping into the air and avoiding Piccolo's foot when he tried to stomp on her. "Hey ugly, open up!" As Piccolo opened his mouth to curse her, Daisuke made her move. "Hadoken Barrage!" Her arms became blurs as she fired Hadoken after Hadoken into Piccolo's mouth and down his gullet.

"What is she doing?" Krillin asked.

"She's using Piccolo's size against him," Goku answered with a smile as Daisuke continued to fire Hadokens into Piccolo's mouth. She stopped when Piccolo began to choke and cough up smoke. He fell to his knees.

"You little pest!" he growled before shrinking down to his regular size.

"That's better. How's it feel being small again? Daisuke mocked him.

"Shut your mouth."

"Calm down, the veins in your forehead are about to burst take a chill pill." Piccolo charged towards Daisuke before vanishing completely. Daisuke followed, leaving the spectators visibly stunned.

"What incredible speed, I'm not sure that even I could keep up," Kami murmured.

"Up there!" Goku shouted, making the others look up to hear the sounds of Daisuke and Piccolo continuing their fighting, and all that was seen were flashes of lights or brief flickers. Piccolo kneed Daisuke in the stomach before she punched him in the face hard. He returned the favour, drawing some blood from Daisuke's lip. She threw an uppercut, knocking Piccolo back before he retaliated with rapid fire punches, leaving her unable to defend herself and knocking her towards the ground.

"Kamehameha!" she shouted, flipping around and firing twin Kamehameha waves from her feet. The move blasted her back up to a shocked Piccolo, allowing her to strike with a spinning uppercut that sent Piccolo falling along with Daisuke.

"Amazing," Krillin said.

"She used her feet for the wave," Tien said.

"A move only the most disciplined masters can achieve, but it allows one to free ones hands for combat," Roshi explained, watching as Piccolo fired energy blasts from his antenna, hitting Daisuke and causing her to fall and land on the stage. Piccolo flew towards her.

"He got me by complete surprise. His father never did anything like that," she said to herself.

"No," Kami said, watching as Piccolo neared Daisuke. Just before Piccolo could punch her, Kami intercepted the punch.

"You are too weak and too old to defeat me old timer," Piccolo growled.

"You forget your place, Piccolo. Daisuke, join me and together we will defeat him," Kami said to Daisuke who shook her head.

"Thanks for the offer Kami, but as I told Tien, this is my fight," Daisuke replied.

"What are you saying? I'm here to help you," Kami said, looking at her.

Daisuke paused for a moment. "Three years ago, Piccolo was responsible for the destruction of nearly everything I cared about. I know I'm not the only one, but I deserve the chance to put Piccolo down again, before he can hurt anyone else. If I lose, you and Goku are the only ones who can fight Piccolo. Please, let me have this."

"Is that so?" Kami asked her.

"You should know how I feel. Weren't you planning to do the same thing before Goku stopped you?"

"Why are they talking, the entire planet can be destroyed if Junior isn't defeated. What is there to discuss?" Krillin asked Roshi.

"Very little, I am sure. A true warrior does not contemplate the fate of the world, only the strength of his enemy. To him, nothing exists beyond the battlefield; he only knows victory and defeat," Roshi answered while Daisuke stood in front of Kami. Kami took a deep breath, and then stepped to the side.

"Very well Daisuke, you will have your chance. Don't die."

"Are you done yet? Or should we have an official time-out?" Piccolo mocked her.

"No, but feel free if you're tired….it looks like your antenna are drooping," Daisuke replied, slightly out of breath.

"Now Daisuke before we proceed thinks this through very carefully, if we act now we can stop him together we may not get a second chance," Kami advised her.

"Thanks for your concern but I've made my choice Kami. This is something I have to do alone," she replied.

"Kami," Tien called out to the guardian who looked at him. "I know you mean well but Daisuke is an accomplished fighter. She's saved the world before."

"Don't worry. We're a team, if things get too bad, we'll take Junior out together," Krillin said, causing Piccolo to laugh.

"Good one, your friends are so loyal and foolish; a bunch of inept weaklings coming to the rescue of their idol. I'd pay zeni to see that."

"I'll show you inept!" Yamcha shouted, trying to jump towards Piccolo, but Bulma held him back.

"You're way out of your league pretty boy, and you know it," Piccolo told him.

"I hate to admit it but Junior is correct, Daisuke, Goku, and perhaps Kami are the only ones who can keep up," Roshi said.

"It took you fools this long to realise my supremacy?" Piccolo asked, laughing.

"Listen Daisuke, I still think you're making the wrong decision; going up against Piccolo alone is folly, but if you insist, don't stop until he is exterminated. I will fall as well, but you can revive me using the Dragonballs," Kami told Daisuke who nodded.

"Thanks for the vote of confidence Kami," she said as Kami walked back to the others.

"You really think you'll win? Stop lying to yourself," Piccolo told her.

"Your threats don't worry me, I've already seen your best technique," Daisuke replied.

"Hardly. You haven't seen anything yet," Piccolo growled.

"Daisuke, such a strange young woman. Her strength, it's unfathomable. She seems to be getting strong and stronger every time she fights. Her power has increased to such a degree that she's even surpassed me. I didn't noticing it until now. If she is to become the warrior I know she can be, I have to give her the room to grow. She must face Junior alone," Kami thought.

"Your arrogance is astounding, do you really think you can beat me?" Piccolo asked Daisuke.

"Yes."

"You fool! Are you simply so moronic that you can't comprehend the impossible odds before you? I am infinitely stronger than what I was three years ago!" Piccolo shouted.

"Three years is a long time, and you're the fool if you think I haven't changed as well," Daisuke replied.

"Be quiet!" Piccolo bellowed, firing a beam of energy towards Daisuke.

"Can't you come up with anything new?" she asked, jumping over the attack. However, she turned to see the attack had changed direction and was headed right for her. "I stand corrected." Jumping into the air, she watched as the energy wave flew after her. She dodged and watched it turn around again and continue chasing after her. "Kamehadoken." She cupped her hands and fired a wave of white energy, shooting her in another direction, but again Piccolo's attack followed after her.

"It's no use you will never escape me!" he shouted, watching as Daisuke continued to try and shake her pursuer before landing on the stage.

"What're you doing!?" Goku shouted before Daisuke winked at him. She ran towards Piccolo, the attack right behind her, until she skidded to a stop in front of him, smirked, and jumped to the side. Piccolo screamed as his own attack struck him in a massive explosion.

"Where's Daisuke?" Tien asked as the smoke cleared, showing Daisuke still intact.

"She's alright, thank goodness," Roshi answered.

"I don't believe it, look; Junior's hurt," Krillin said, and he was right as Piccolo's left arm was heavily bleeding and limp.

"I didn't know it was possible to move like that," Yamcha said.

"Give it up Piccolo, you're wounded, you can't fight like that," Daisuke told him, but he smirked and ripped his injured arm off in a shower of blood, stunning everyone.

"Oh I'm gonna be sick," Oolong said, covering his mouth. Piccolo roared, clenching his remaining fist, and a brand new arm emerged, replacing his recently discarded one.

"He can grow his arm back? Now that's scary," Krillin said, shaking in fright.

"Just give up, you can't hurt me and you can't stop my power. I am invincible, you will be the first to witness my destiny," Piccolo told Daisuke, placing his arms on their opposite as veins began showing all over his body. A huge aura flowed from his body while he roared.

"Get out of here! It's not safe here, leave! Move it!" Daisuke shouted to the others. "Get as far away as fast as you can!"

"I've never seen so much power summoned at one time," Goku thought.

"He has to be getting desperate to go to such extremes," Daisuke thought.

"Junior seems to be absorbing our energy making himself stronger," Roshi said.

"It seems that Junior is using some strange technique that absorbs the energy of anything in its path. Somehow it's draining his opponent while making him stronger," the announcer said.

"The audience has left, you idiot!" Bulma shouted in his ear.

"Didn't any of you hear me!?" Daisuke asked the others. "Run away as far as you can, get of this island, hurry!"

"I'm not leaving you Daisuke!" Goku replied.

"Just go already, I'll hold him!" Daisuke shouted.

"Daisuke, this is madness. You can't stay here, you must come with us. I know how much stopping Piccolo here means to you, but you have to turn away give up before it's too late. There's no more time," Kami told her as the ground began to crack and split with a tornado forming around Piccolo. A sphere of energy surrounded him.

"This is it, take cover!" Daisuke warned.

"I've got to save my friends," Tien said flying into the air. "Tri-Beam!" He fired his main attack at the ground, creating a large hole. "Everyone, take cover in this hole. We won't do Daisuke any good if we're all dead."

"You heard him," Goku said, heading for the hole with everyone else.

"Daisuke, you have to get out of there," Krillin told her.

"No."

"You fool, this will be your end; you can't fathom the power you are facing. If you did, you'd be on your knees, begging for mercy," Piccolo told her.

"No way, get ready to lose," she replied.

"Conceited mutt, I'll enjoy breaking you," Piccolo said, and Daisuke crouched and crossed her arms, and began to glow. She knew that raising her own Ki to its highest level was the only way she would survive this. Piccolo unleashed his attack, a growing sphere of destroying light burning it's away across the island, obliterating it with the force of a nuclear blast, leaving a mushroom cloud once the blast ended. "I have won…" Piccolo said chuckling, while Krillin pulled himself out of the hole and screamed, seeing nothing but a barren wasteland.

"Daisuke?" he asked before seeing Daisuke still standing. Her entire front was red with burns, and her clothes were in tatters that barely concealed her body. "Daisuke!" Piccolo looked at Daisuke, and horror worked its way into his soul.

"Surprised to see me? You'll need more than that to defeat me, Piccolo."

"But that's impossible, you should be dust!" Piccolo exclaimed.

"She's alive!" Krillin shouted to the others.

"It's a miracle," Kami said, stunned.

"That's my Daisuke alright," Goku said with a smile.

"Get over here if you're ready for more," Daisuke said.

"No…no…it's not fair!" Piccolo shouted.

"Amazing, she took that blast head on and she doesn't even look singed," Tien said, in wonder.

"That's Daisuke for ya, she's not going down so easily," Goku said.

"You've used up all your energy and every dirty trick in the book, but you can't get rid of me. I'm still here, and I'm going to win," Daisuke told Piccolo, clenching her fists, and she shouted.

"This is going to hurt," Piccolo said, an uncharacteristic note of resignation in his voice.

"Don't worry, this will only hurt a lot," Daisuke said before she charged Piccolo. Jumping, she kneed him in the jaw before continuing to kick him in the face and chest repeatedly. She landed and delivered a spinning uppercut, making Piccolo stumble back. She finished with several jabs to his abdomen, and a heavy punch to his stomach, making him roar in pain.

"That had to hurt," Tien said as Piccolo fell onto his back and Daisuke jumped into the air.

"KA-ME-HA-ME….." Daisuke said, as a sphere of blue Ki appeared in her cupped hands.

"Incoming!" Krillin shouted as everyone dived for cover.

"HAAAAAAAA!" Daisuke shouted, firing the Kamehameha at Piccolo who began to scream, watching as the wave hit him dead on and creating a bright flash of light. Daisuke landed on the edge of the crater where Piccolo was now laying after the Kamehameha hit him.

"Now might be a good time to start counting," Daisuke said, a note of wry amusement in her voice, and the announcer rang over.

"I don't know why she's even wasting her breath," Tien said as the others began to celebrate.

"Oh my…is he? He's not moving…do you think he could be…."

"He's not that vulnerable," Daisuke told him. "Not that it really matters, but it would be cool to win the tournament. Announcer?"

"You're right. I'm still, alive so that means so is Junior. He's asleep. Might I suggest you begin counting before he awakes?" Kami advised the announcer who nodded and began to count. The others joined in while Daisuke watched Piccolo closely, and on the count of nine, his head shout up and he fired a beam of Ki from his mouth towards Daisuke. Her eyes widened; she didn't have enough time to raise her Ki to a level that could block that attack. Desperately, she lifted her left arm up to try and shield herself.

Daisuke felt Piccolo's energy blast collide with her arm and she screamed. Agony poured into her as the blast stripped away flesh and muscle, searing it to the bone. When the destructive light faded away, what had become of Daisuke's arm became revealed. Short of a bloody tatter or two of muscle strands, Daisuke's arm had been stripped to the very bone, revealing her metal bones for all to see. Eyes wild with pain, Daisuke starred numbly at her arm.

"Daisuke!" Goku shouted in horror while the others were stunned. Piccolo began laughing as he walked towards Daisuke.

"Hanging on until the bitter end, how considerate. Your time is up, end of game. You made a good run at it but now it is over. For the crimes committed against King Piccolo, it is my honor to serve justice!" he then swung his arm down in a knife-edge chop towards Daisuke. To everyone's shock, she lifted her arm to block the blow. The source of their shock wasn't that she blocked it, but that she did so with her metal arm. "But how?" Piccolo spluttered. "With your muscles in that condition, you shouldn't be able to move that arm at all!"

"Good thing my body isn't normal, otherwise my arm would be history," she grunted pushing Piccolo back allowing her to fully stand. "Had I not blocked that attack, I'd most likely be dead. As for my arm… well, there's an advantage of having an arm made of 'living metal.' I can manipulate it by channeling my Ki through it." She took a deep breath. "Unfortunately," she thought to herself, "it's somewhat draining to do, and I'm tired. Also, I can't channel Ki attacks through it. No more Kamehamehas."

"It doesn't matter if you're still standing, victory shall be mine," Piccolo said, snarling at her.

"Then by all means, bring it on," Daisuke replied before Piccolo kicked her metal arm, knocking her down, but she got back up. Her vision blurred slightly through the pain, though her thoughts remained strangely lucid.

"After all the hard I put into renovating this place, the least you could do is stop leaking on the floor," Piccolo taunted before he charged and elbowed Daisuke in the jaw, knocking her down. He jumped into the air and drove both his knees into Daisuke's legs, making her scream in pain yet again.

"He broke her legs!" Krillin shouted, not knowing that Daisuke's entire skeleton was made of a metal too strong to break easily.

"That's it, I can't watch anymore," Oolong said, covering his eyes.

"I'd like to thank you. Seeing you writhing around in pain in the dirt means more to me than you can imagine," Piccolo told Daisuke. "It is time for me to deprive you of your life Daisuke." He flew high into the air above a prone Daisuke.

"He's going to kill Daisuke, we have to help here!" Krillin shouted.

"What do we do?" Tien asked.

"Goku, you can save Daisuke by killing me. Piccolo will die as well," Kami told Goku who was hesitant. "If you kill me then you can call the Eternal Dragon later and bring me back to life later," Kami said, closing his eyes and waiting for Goku to strike.

"Don't!" Daisuke told him. "I know I can win."

"You can't even move that's just impossible!" Krillin shouted.

"You're strong Daisuke, but Piccolo has taken everything you can throw at him and stood back up," Kami said as Piccolo began to charge his final attack.

"Relax and enjoy your death; you've nowhere else to go!" he told Daisuke, firing a powerful energy wave towards Daisuke. Everyone closed their eyes as the attack hit, creating a powerful gust of wind that blew everyone away. Piccolo panted before beginning to laugh evilly and landing on the arena floor. "It's done. It's too bad you were obliterated, I would have liked to have kept some of you as a souvenir."

"Daisuke…" Goku whispered sadly.

"I've won, Daisuke is no more. The world is now mine to do with what I wish, a new age will soon dawn on the earth; one marred with suffering and pain for all mankind," Piccolo exclaimed.

"You're gonna pay for this," Krillin growled.

"She deserved better than this," Roshi said.

"There is no need to grieve for your fallen friend because you will all be joining her shortly," Piccolo told them.

"Up here slug face!" a voice shouted and everyone looked into the sky as did Piccolo to see Daisuke flying towards him.

"What impossible!" Piccolo shouted.

"I told you I would win," Daisuke said, kicking Piccolo in the chest and sending him flying back. He skidded across the ground. "Is it over?" she asked no one in particular. "I know I broke something there. Speaking of which, is he out of bounds?"

"There's… not much left," he answered.

"Can you tell….have I won?" Daisuke asked.

"Well….it appears that Junior is out of bounds. The winner of the 23rd World Martial Arts Tournament is Daisuke!" the announcer shouted and Daisuke grinned.

"How's that for a bonus? Defeated a wannabe tyrant and became a tournament champion in one swoop!"

"Alright!" Krillin shouted as everyone ran over to Daisuke. Goku arrived, first helping Daisuke to her feet.

"How do you feel?" he asked her.

"I'm in agony. My arm is killing me and my legs hurt," she answered bluntly, noticing Yajirobe walking over. "I have no idea why I can still talk to you calmly. Hey Yajirobe, can I have a Senzu bean?" she asked.

"Fine," he grumbled, tossing a bean to Daisuke who caught it. She ate the bean and to everyone's amazement flesh and muscle began crawling down her metal arm gruesomely, and most of the viewers looked away, a little nauseated, and her arm finally regrew flesh. Her other, lesser burns had also vanished.

"Okay, that is cool as well as gross," Krillin said.

"Looks like I'm the two-time champ!" Daisuke said with a cheer, actually bouncing a little.

"I didn't know those beans could heal you as well as fill you up," Yamcha said to Yajirobe.

"Well, I still can't figure out why they taste like fish," Yajirobe said, Daisuke saw Kami standing over Piccolo with his arm raised.

"Kami no!" she shouted, intercepting Kami and catching his arm.

"Get out of my way," he demanded.

"No, first tell me what you're planning to do," Daisuke said.

"He is still alive. The earth will never be safe so long as he draws breath; you know the danger he poses," Kami replied. "Pure evil can never be tamed."

"But if he dies, you will die along with him, there has to be another way," Daisuke said.

"I told you that killing me doesn't matter; you can ask the Eternal Dragon to bring me back to life," Kami said.

"He is right Daisuke, trust him, his plan will work," Tien said.

"But you're Kami, are you capable of telling a lie?" Daisuke asked Kami.

"Say what?" he asked, anger in his voice.

"The Eternal Dragon and the Dragonballs were created by you, so it's safe to assume that if you're destroyed the Dragonballs will be destroyed as well," Daisuke answered.

"What did she say?" Tien asked.

"Sometimes even I will make a mistake," Kami said looking into the sky. "I created this monster, yet he's become powerful enough to surpass even me, plunging the world into chaos. I've lost more than power, I've lost my perspective; I no longer to govern this or any world."

"How can you say such things when it was you who brought our world peace again?" Roshi asked, walking towards him. "Without your training, Daisuke would never have attained the level of skill she has now, Piccolo would have won. If you didn't create the Dragonballs, these young warriors behind me would never have met. And I can't begin to count the number of people who owe their lives to these kids. When their quest began, they started as children, but overtime they grew into heroes. When the world needed saving, nine brave kids answered the call. One ball, that's all it took."

"Daisuke, you are fortunate to have such loyal friends and a wise teacher," Kami told her, and she smiled.

"Yeah, though Roshi didn't teach me anything apart from how to get beat up for peeping," she joked, making the others laugh and Roshi blushed in embarrassment.

Kami walked towards Daisuke and held his hand up. Her clothes glowed and were repaired and replaced. "Thanks Kami. Yajirobe, toss me another Senzu bean," Daisuke said.

"If you keep eating these you're gonna get fat," Yajirobe said tossing her a Senzu bean which she caught and put in Piccolo's mouth scaring everyone.

"Are you out of your mind Daisuke?" Goku asked his fiancée before Piccolo awoke and jumped back before chuckling.

"Maybe you two can be best friends!" Yamcha shouted.

"No we won't; my reason for helping Piccolo was simple. Had I destroyed him then Kami would suffer. Kami would also die if Piccolo died from his injuries. Plus, there's no injury that we could inflict on him that would be both permanent and wouldn't kill him." Daisuke took a breath. "Mark my words Piccolo, I will put you down as many times as is necessary."

"You're a moron if you think this changes anything between you and I. Mercy is a loathsome trait, and you will soon learn that I have no such weakness. When that glorious day arrives, the whole world will be mine. I'll see you real soon. Until then, I'll see you in your nightmares," Piccolo said flying off.

"I hope when that day comes you're disappointed, I've beaten you before and I'll do it again," Daisuke thought as Goku wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her cheek, making her blush.

"You were amazing Daisuke, I'm proud of you," he whispered to her.

"Goku, not in front of the others," she whined, causing him to chuckle.

"Looks like you two have found the one thing you can't beat with fists, love, and it conquers all," Roshi told them, chuckling.

"Good work, and Tien, are you expecting a visitor?" Kami asked Tien.

"Tien!" Tien looked up to see Chiaotzu flying towards him with his head in bandages.

"Chiaotzu! You're alive," he said, embracing his friend happily.

"Daisuke, you've proven yourself worthy. In fact, I would like to offer you my job," Kami told Daisuke.

"Wha, are you serious?" she asked.

"Yes, I have a lot of confidence in you. It could turn out to be your greatest adventure," Kami answered.
