Also...OOC warning....yes, I hate to get these characters OOC(out of character), but sometimes they may seem more sentimental, crazy, weird, or angry than usually seen on the real anime. (Exmpl. Piccolo wouldn't regularly say , "She's REALLY hot," on dbz....and he doesn't say it in here either, but that was just an extreme example.) I find this rather annoying when trying to make a good story, unless you've meant for them to be out of character altogether. But, I understand that it is sometimes necessary in certain points if you want to tell your story the way you want it. Again...I apologize for times that might seem a bit too OOC.....^^;;;

"Damn!" Nikhya exclaimed as she was slammed into a tree trunk, back first. She slid down the trunk and breathed heavily, trying not to show any pain in her face. This proved difficult. She knelt on the ground and breathed heavily. Carefully, she wiped a trail of blood off of her lip and slowly got back up. "Ayyyyahhh!!" She yelled as she ran at her opponent. She materialized and appeared behind him, punching him in the back and kicking his feet out from underneath him.
"You are getting quicker." The figure said.
"Ha! You know it, Piccolo." Nikhya laughed out as she stepped on Piccolo's chest to keep him down on the ground.
He grabbed her other foot and pulled her to the ground. "But not quick enough." He finished.
Nikhya tried to gasp for the air that she had lost when she'd been pulled to the ground. "Piccolo....not....f-fair."
"Ha...I don't seem to remember fairness being a part of fighting..." He laughed. "At least not with the aliens we're going to be up against."
"Correction." Nikhya smirked after she'd caught her breath. "You never fight fair, even if we are training to beat some weirdo alien fighters. And hey, we've been training the whole day! I think I'm doing pretty good for fighting so long, non stop!"
She got up slowly and took a fighting stance. "Come on...I'm ready for you."
"Nope, sorry." Piccolo replied.
"Waddya mean, 'Nope sorry'." She mimicked.
"I mean, that we have done enough training for today."
Nikhya looked over her shoulder and noticed that the sun was setting. She relaxed, yawned, and then looked back at Piccolo. "Well, I'm not tired yet." She yawned again.
"Not tired?" he said as he watched her yawn, "...t-yeah right." Piccolo crossed his arms and waited for Nikhya to start complaining.
"Well, I am a bit tired. I guess I should go take a bath in the lake. I'm awful dirty." She replied brushing herself off.
"What?!" Piccolo said sounding a bit surprised. "No whining about how tired you aren't?"
"Well, I figure a bath would feel good. I haven't had one in two whole days. Arguing will only make me more tired than I already am." Nikhya walked over to a fallen log and sat down.
Piccolo looked at her smugly and crossed his arms.
"What?!" Nikhya asked innocently smiling.
"There must be a catch. Usually, you are running around me trying to convince me you aren't tired and that you want to train some more."
"Well, not tonight. I really want to take a bath, and if you keep hounding me, I will start whining!"
"Fine.." He said as he turned to leave. "Be ready tomorrow morning."
"Aren't I always?" Nikhya said as she pulled her shirt off over her head. "Bye Piccolo." She muffled as she struggled to pull the shirt off.
He just chuckled and flew off. After about a minute of flying, he remembered that he'd forgotten to tell her that the next week was her free week. He hated giving her free days, but they had been training for about a month without much rest. And she was a girl, so she needed her rest, he had always hastily thought. "I better go back and tell her...she'll kill me if she gets up as early as she usually does for nothing." He thought as he turned to go back. When he arrived back in the forest, he landed and looked around. He called out her name as he walked over to her hut. She didn't answer, so he quickly went to look over in her favorite spot...a tree by the lake. He stepped out by the lake and ended up stepping on a piece of clothing.
"What the..?!" He said aloud as he looked down at a bra that was now stuck on his shoe. Suddenly a splash of water hit him, and he almost ended up falling into the lake.
"Piccolo! Baka!! Hentai! Get out of here!" Nikhya yelled angrily as she stopped splashing water at him and started throwing clumps of mud.
He looked over at her and yelled back, "Well how was I suppose to know......" He looked up at her and realized she wasn't wearing any clothing.
She stood there dripping wet and totally naked yelling at Piccolo. She stopped when she saw him staring at her. "What are you looking at?!?!?!"
"You seem to be nude." Piccolo chuckled.
"Uh, Yeah! That's what people are when they take baths! Idiot!" Nikhya stood with her hands on her hips.
He stood admiring her curvaceous body that glistened with every move she made. The moon was shining on her just perfectly so that it accentuated every beautiful detail of her human figure. "That's right...human figure...I shouldn't be admiring a human...I shouldn't be admiring anyone like that." Piccolo reminded himself silently. "Why in the world are you standing here looking at her?" he thought to himself, still staring. He quickly shook it off and turned away.
Nikhya grabbed up a robe that had been sitting next to where she'd been bathing and threw it on. " You are looking at a Half human, half Namek..." she said, reading his face. "Now, what do you want?" She said as she walked toward Piccolo.
"I forgot to tell you that tomorrow, you have a week off."
"WHY?!"
"Because you need your rest." He sighed.
".....?! Piccolo, what are you talking about?!" Nikhya grew red in the face with anger.
Piccolo cleared his throat and leaned up against a nearby tree. "I'm talking about the fact that you won't be able to take it if we train non-stop."
Nikhya was glowing with anger, and her ki.
Piccolo smiled as he watched her glow brighter. "Now, now...don't go getting all defensive."
"How can I NOT?!" Nikhya finally spoke. A smile spread across her face as she thought for a moment. "Piccolo...how about we make a deal?"
Piccolo looked at her suspiciously. "What kind of deal?"
"We spar right now, in the air...first one to hit the ground loses..." She held a certain eagerness in her voice as she spoke.
"And what does the winner get?" Piccolo said confidently.
"If I win, I don't take the week off...if you win, I do."
"I could just tell you have the week off and leave you..." Piccolo sighed.
"I could just train by myself while you are gone...and I will, if you leave me without at least trying this deal out first." She smiled.
"Fine...I don't know why I'm worried anyway. You will lose." Piccolo laughed aloud.
"Hey! Just get into it, will you?!" Nikhya hovered into the air holding onto her two staffs she'd just then pulled out of thin air. She flashed an evil smile at Piccolo as he began to rise up into the air.
"So, you're going to spar in that robe, then?" A smirk quickly spread across Piccolo's face.
"Why, yes...Do you have a problem with that?" she replied sarcastically.
"No..." he said as he de-materialized.
She let a small chuckle as she quickly scanned the area around her. Nikhya licked her lips tasting the night air. Then she sucked on her finger and stuck it up into the air. She smiled, satisfied, as she realized what Piccolo was about to do. Just as he appeared behind her, almost wrapping his arms around her, she de-materialized.
Piccolo looked around for a moment, but wasn't quick enough...Nikhya quickly materialized behind him and grabbed him around the neck. She kneed him hard in the back, making him howl in pain. Then she quickly punched him in his upper back, sending him flying toward the ground.
He de-materialized right before he hit the ground and materialized in front of Nikhya. He smiled and flew straight toward her. After a series of punches in the stomach and one in the face, he grabbed her before she could get away and flew toward the ground. He let her go about 10 feet away from the ground, planning on sending her to the ground to eat dirt. She stopped herself an inch away from the ground and sighed thankfully as she looked straight down at it, moving the dust as she breathed. Wiping her brow, she was about to fly up higher when, out of no where, she felt a blow hit her to the ground.
She couldn't open her eyes as she felt a strong force holding her down to the ground. "Argh....Aye, that hurt...." She managed to finally open her eyes a bit as she spoke and the force let up a bit. She swallowed and realized her lip was bleeding. A green blur moved in front of her eyes as she tried to open them a bit more. "Piccolo?," She managed to squeak out when she realized that he was holding her down. She felt a huge breeze on her body and tried to look at herself to see if she was still wearing her robe. She caught a glimpse of something that looked like a huge piece of cloth over on the ground next to her......
"I won..." was all she heard before she blacked out.
Later that night...
Nikhya woke up feeling very groggy...she sat up in her bed and quickly laid back down when she felt her head start to spin. She looked under her covers and realized she had her robe back on. "Ugh...Piccolo? Where am I?" She looked around for a moment and realized she was in her hut, laying on her cot. "Huh? How'd I get...here?" She slowly got out of bed. "Piccolo.," She realized, smiling as she flexed one of her arms... "Hmm...all better. He must've given me a senzu bean." She walked across her hut to its opening. "Piccolo?," she called out sleepily as she looked around. She saw him sitting at the foot of a nearby tree and slowly walked over to him. She sat next to him and realized he was meditating...or sleeping. "Piccolo? You sleepin?" She gently poked at his arm.
All Piccolo did was take a deep breath and let it out with a snort...almost like a snore. "Wow, when you sleep, you really sleep..." She brought her knees to her chest and wrapped her arms around them. She smiled as the breeze played with little strands of her hair. She sighed happily and looked back over at Piccolo. She giggled as she watched him, hearing little snores here and there. "Hard to believe that you could be so rough...you look so peaceful when you sleep. Not to mention, a bit cute too." Smiling, she closed her eyes and leaned back next to Piccolo against the trunk.
"Cute?" Piccolo whispered as he opened an eye to look over at Nikhya. She jumped almost five feet into the air when she heard him speak. She landed on her feet and looked back at him. "DAMN IT! Piccolo! You scared me!" He laughed as he watched Nikhya's face turn three shades of red. "You were awake all along!"
"You think I could sleep through your stomping around? I was TRYING to meditate." He smirked.
"Well, the least you can do when meditating is be DEAF! And you don't have to pretend to snore either you little sneak." she angrily growled.
"Why? Just because of some little thing like that?" He smirked as he spoke.
"Little?! You don't find that just a little odd in a big way?" she stopped herself and thought about what she had just said to see if it had made sense.
"Well, I've never had to deal with it...so I wouldn't know if it was odd or not." He replied.
"I suppose not. I mean, I guess you've never trained a girl before...and even if you had, they probably wouldn't have thought about you THAT way..." she said matter-of-factly.
"It's all nonsense anyway." Piccolo said as he got up and brushed himself off.
"What do you mean nonsense!?! It's what holds all of us together!" Nikhya began to get flushed as she spoke.
"Holds all of you HUMANS together." He said as he turned to fly off.
"If you will remember, I'm HALF human...."she said softly as she got up, walked over to Piccolo, and grabbed him by the shoulder from behind, "and half namek."
Piccolo froze as he felt her touch his shoulder. He loosed up and chuckled. "You're playing with matches Nikhya, and you know your mommy told you not to do that kind of thing. You might get burned."
"If you'll also remember...I never HAD a mommy to tell me not to play with matches......" She quickly de-materialized and then reappeared in front of him. "And neither did you..."
Nikhya was flushed and almost decided to just give up and go to sleep...but she was always up for a challenge. And to her, playing with Piccolo's mind was a challenge. "Piccolo, I'm going to kiss you now. Do you have a problem with it?"
"What in the hell?!" He looked down at her and looked like he'd been taken aback by her comment.
"Good....then stay..." She smirked and grabbed his hand, making his whole body glow a ghostly silver.
He tried to move after that, but couldn't move an inch... "Nikhya." He spoke angrily.
"Oh, did I mention you aren't going to be able to move from that spot? Sorry, forgot that part. Oh, and by the way, you won't be able to move your arms either." She smiled and got closer to his face. "Don't want any punching."
"She's got a damned paralyzing spell?!" he thought silently... "Crazy woman!" he yelled as he strained to move.
She giggled mischievously as she watched him struggle. "Yeah, to a certain degree...I suppose I'm crazy."
"Why are you doing this?!" He asked as she kept struggling.
"Because, I want to find something out." She smiled.
"What is tha-..." he started to ask, but was interrupted.
Nikhya had hovered a bit so she was almost his height. Then she had softly placed her lips on Piccolo's and gave him a long kiss to try and stun him so he would keep quiet. She broke away and frowned, irritated.
"Shut up...you'll like this if you would at least try it out first before going berserk." After she finished speaking she placed her hand on his neck and brought herself closer to him. She felt her heartbeat quicken as she looked into his deep black eyes....
Piccolo stared straight at her, stunned by what she'd done. ".........."
Nikhya licked her lips and then placed them softly on Piccolo's once again. She kissed him harder than she had the first time, making him open his mouth a little in surprise. He opened his eyes wide as she aggressively stuck her tongue in his mouth and kissed him deeply.
"?!.........," Piccolo grabbed her by the waist and brought her closer to him as he slowly began to kiss her back.
Nikhya almost fell over when she felt him respond. She broke away and gasped as he held her tightly. She realized she had tears coming down her face and quickly wiped them away. "Piccolo...." She said as she looked curiously up at him.
"So you finally realized it?" Piccolo smirked as he kept his unblinking eyes on her. "Damn it...What did I just do?! .....what have I got myself into now?" he thought to himself as he waited for her response.
Nikhya nodded, dazed, realizing her spell had worn off...a while ago...
