Chapter 6
Anemone looked out the window, feeling concern for her cousin. She felt a terrible power coming over to them. There was also another reason for her unease. Nail's power had been incredibly low, but he'd fused with someone and now both powers were strong. She gazed out over the horizon, looking at the large dragon that had been summoned. The dark clouds kept the light of the suns from reaching him.
What's going on? I don't understand... The sky lost the dark clouds and Porunga fizzled into nothingness. Lie. Guru. Lie. She sank to the floor, crying.
Why all the tears? a voice inquired.
The amazon tensed, realizing someone had seen her.
Don't cry, young one. I hate to see anyone cry.
Who are you? she inquired.
My name is Son Goku. What's yours?
Anemone.
Why are you crying, Anemone?
Guru is dead. He's the person who was like a grandfather to me.
Goku fell silent in surprise. One Namek-jin had been able to get to the innocence of a saiya-jin child, and he brought it out in her. The warrior let the girl cry out her heartbreak.
A new presence intruded into her telepathy. Anemone. Come instantly. This is too much for just three of us. Vegeta fell silent. The girl checked the monitoring equipment.
He's going to need at least thirty more minutes. Whoa here. How did I read that? The amazon then turned about, leaving the room. She shrugged off her surprise and turned to leave.
Where are you going? Goku inquired, causing her to halt.
They need my help.
Be careful.
Hai, I will.
She then found the hatch and soared to the battle. Once she arrived, Gohan exploded with rage. He began to beat the Ice-jin tyrant to the ground. A young Namek came up out of the water, holding Krillin. "Dende!"
"He's still breathing, Gohan!" Anemone floated down to her adoptive brother, then helped him pull Krillin out.
"It isn't over yet! Look!" Vegeta cried.
"Impressive, kid. You are a true saiya-jin. That's precisely why I have to kill you." Frieza declared. He lunged forward and kneed him in the gut. Gohan let out a cry of pain, falling to the ground.
Anemone charged up one of her attacks. I hope this will stall him. Just as the tyrant kicked her friend in the ribs, sending him sprawling, a slim ki beam left her hands and hit Frieza right on the back.
"Another little warrior?" he growled. "Girl, you shouldn't have done that to me!" The evil creature lunged right at the little princess, but she dodged him. "Nani? How could she be so fast?" Her little foot came down, with enough force to punch through steel, on his back. He held in a pained cry, not willing to let her know that she had managed to hurt him.
The Ice-jin attempted to hit her, but she caught his fist. Her knee shot up into the purple triangle on his abdomen. He fell, clutching his burning gut. The creature turned back to Gohan, wanting to finish what he'd started.
"KIENZEN!!!" Krillin cried as he launched the disc. Frieza barely managed to dodge it, yet the attack cut the tip of his tail off. "Hey, Frieza!" the Chikyuu warrior called. He stuck his tongue out and made a series of weird noises. "Come on!" He bent over and slapped his butt. "Here's your target!" His taunting hit home and angered the creature he was addressing.
The Ice-jin lunged at him. Then the chase was on. Dende came over to his friend. "Relax, Gohan. I have the power to heal." A sparkling orange glow both of them. They both got to their feet after it had faded away.
Krillin halted right between Vegeta and Anemone. "Yeah, all right! Mission accomplished!" he cried.
The Prince turned to the smaller warrior. "Why did you keep that kid's power a secret?" he demanded.
"We didn't know. If we had, we would've had him heal Goku."
Gohan saw Frieza come back, and his gaze hardened. The boy levitated up to where his friends were hovering. "Nani? How did this happen?!"
"We must attack him at the same time." Vegeta commanded. The four lunged at their common enemy, but a bright white light stopped them. When it cleared, a lone Namek warrior hovered there.
Is that Piccolo? If it is, he's the one Nail fused with. Anemone realized.
"Piccolo!"
"Hello, Gohan. Who is this girl?"
"Her name is Anemone." the boy explained. The older warrior turned to Frieza. An all out battle began between the two. The saiya-jin prince got frightened by the power being displayed, and attempted to flee.
The Ice-jin saw this, then vanished from the battlefield. He seemed to rematerialize right in front of the warrior. "Excuse me, but I hate it when someone leaves and doesn't say good-bye." A punch sent him flying into a cliff. Then the evil warrior came back to his fight. "Sorry about the delay, but I had a little business to take care of."
The girl felt like her emotions had frozen when she saw what had happened. "Vegeta." she whispered. Her ki lowered itself, so her level of hovering was not quite so high.
