Answered Questions

Chi-Chi was outside waiting for them when they reached Goku's house. "Where have you been?" She demanded.

"Learning." was all Mahi would tell her, as she went to her room.

"Where did you find her?" Chi-Chi asked, turning to face Goku.

"Yanzibit Heights." He answered, as if it were the only place Mahi would have gone.

"Nani?" Chi-Chi shouted. "Why would my sweet little girl want to do in that place?"

"She wanted to be alone." Vegita snickered. "And I can see why. She never would have been able to accomplish what she did had she stayed here."

Vegita left to find Bulma and his dinner, as Goku began to explain the existence of the new dragonballs to Chi-Chi.

Suddenly, Goku heard a familiar voice. "Goku? What's going on there on earth?" It was King Kai.

"Hey, King Kai!" Goku exclaimed. "I was going to call you. I have very good news."

As Goku explained about the new dragonballs, Piccolo rested his hand on King Kai's shoulder and listened in. "So, she did it?" He said with a smile. Releasing King Kai's shoulder, Piccolo turned and rejoined the others.

When he was finished speaking with Goku, King Kai called Piccolo to come speak with him. "What did you mean when you said, 'So, she did it.'?" he asked.

"Remember when I told you of Mahi?" Piccolo reminded King Kai.

"Hai, but you never mentioned dragonballs." King Kai answered, still puzzled by this new development.

"No, I didn't. But I did tell you that she was part Namek." Piccolo explained. "When I was training Mahi, she tried creating dragonballs she had dreamed about. I wondered then if she could actually create them. But I wasn't sure she was strong enough."

"Oh." was all King Kai could think to say. When he rejoined the group, King Kai explained to them what had happened. Everyone was very stunned and excited. Finally, they would be able to go home.

Meanwhile, Vegita had told Bulma. When she didn't believe him, he goaded her into checking with her dragonball radar. Seeing that he was right, Bulma quickly decided that they should split up and each go after one of the dragonballs. And so, one by one they went off in search of the new silver dragonballs.

Bulma quickly found the first one using her dragonball radar, and went back to Goku's house to join the others. Mahi found the second one with much ease as well. She too returned home to join the others. Bra found one as well. Goku and Vegita took just a while longer to find the ones they were looking for and return home. Within a few hours the small group had found five of the seven dragonballs. It was a simple task to go out once more and collect the remaining two dragonballs.

Once all of the dragonballs had been recovered, Goku called Shen-Kara. "You have awakened me, Son Goku. What does your heart desire? I will grant you three wishes within my power." Shen-Kara told him.

"Shen-Kara, many of our friends died protecting the earth from Petorochi." Goku explained. "I wish for you to bring them back to this dimension."

Shen-Kara was quiet for a moment. Then Piccolo appeared beside Goku, the others behind him. "Your wish has been granted. What is your second wish?"

Goku tried to think of something useful to wish for next. "I would really like to find out about my parents." Mahi told him.

"Ok." Goku replied. "Shen-Kara, For my second wish I would like to see Mahi-chan's biological parents."

Once more Shen-Kara was quiet for a moment. "Your wish has been granted."

Goku looked around, seeing no one new he asked the dragon what that meant.

"Mahi's biological parents are there. You, Son Goku, and Piccolo contributed to her making." Shen-Kara explained.

Stunned, Goku blurted out, "I wish someone could explain how that happened."

"Your third wish has been granted." Shen-Kara announced, as a strange man appeared before them. "Farewell."

Everyone was very confused. Piccolo and Goku had a daughter together? But how?

"I created her." the strange man declared. Everyone quieted down to listen to the old man.

"In my lab, I created her." he explained. "I took samples of DNA from Goku and Piccolo using mechanical bugs. With these samples I was able to create the one you call Mahi. I was trying to create a warrior strong enough to take my revenge on Vegita for killing my son. However, I made a grave error. I forgot the Y chromosome needed to make a male. So I disposed of the useless girl and set to work on my new son. Now he can extract my revenge. And as a bonus for doing this, he can rule the world."

Suddenly, Mahi stepped forward to stand before the mad doctor. "I won't let him." She stated with determination.

"And who will be able to stop him?" the doctor asked, laughing.

As an answer, Mahi slowly raised her right hand palm up. Then with a strange look in her eyes, she squeezed her fist closed. Suddenly the doctor began gasping for air. "Nani?" he gasped, struggling to free himself from the invisible pressure. "But it can't be!! You're just a weak female. You can't."

Slowly, Mahi smiled a very disturbing smile. "Oh, I can." she answered, completely balling her fist. "And ... I ... will." Defiantly, Mahi squeezed her fist harder. The doctor's body couldn't take the pressure anymore, and he exploded right in front of them. Shocked by Mahi cruelness, the others couldn't believe their eyes.

"Mahi-chan, why did you do that?" Goku shouted. "He created you."

"Not to mention he was helpless." Krillin added.

"He dared me. By abandoning me in the woods as an infant, he dared me to come back and destroy him. By thinking that I was useless just because I am a female, he dared me to become something." Mahi shrugged. "He dared me, and I did all that he thought I would not be capable of doing."

Even the cold-hearted Vegita was amazed by her emotionless speech. "You are crazy." he told her. "He was brought hear to explain your very existence, and you killed him without a second thought."

"Don't worry Vegita-san. I do not plan on doing the same to you. I have no reason to hate you." Mahi assured him.

"But, Mahi-chan." Gohan interrupted. "You had no reason to kill the doctor either."

"I won't defend my actions." Mahi announced with calm authority.

"What happened to you?" Goten asked. "You used to be this sweet, but annoying girl who followed me and Trunks around."

"Well, to get over the fact that I wasn't strong enough or smart enough to save my friends and family when they needed me. I felt no more pain when I pushed the emotions aside. After that, well, I got a lot stronger. Hero-worshipping is for the weak. I survived the first three years of my life with no one. And, I can survive the rest without anyone as well." Mahi explained, flatly. "Why give into what makes you weakest?"

Even Vegita was stunned. Was this the same daring little girl who had told him she loved him? Who goaded him on by calling him Ojisan Vegita? He realized that he had changed much in the past years. He still wouldn't admit what he felt, but he allowed himself to feel the warm feelings just the same. This Mahi reminded him of himself when he was a child.

"Tell Chi-Chi I won't be coming home." Mahi commanded Goku. "Ever."

Goku was shocked. Mahi's attitude reminded her of Vegita when he first came to earth. "What happened to you, Mahi-chan?" he asked, pained. "You weren't like this when we found you. You created the dragonballs, you have to care."

"Do I?" Mahi asked. "I put my heart in those dragonballs, so it could not hurt me anymore."

"But, that's impossible!" Piccolo yelled.

Suddenly, Kami appeared beside Piccolo. "No, it is not." he refuted. "It is simply very hard to do without breaking the dragonballs."

In the confusion that followed Kami's appearance, Mahi quickly disappeared. She had to get away from all these humans. Cold Sayjin blood ran in her veins, slightly mixed with Namek blood tainted by Piccolo's evil. An evil that Piccolo had managed to overcome thru the years. But it was the Sayjin part of her that had reveled in killing the insolent doctor. Tossing her hair regally over her shoulder, Mahi continued on to find a new place to live.

"Well, Kakorot, she doesn't acted like any daughter of yours." Vegita smirked. "If anything she acts like she has royal blood coursing through her veins. And we all know who has the royal blood around here."

"What are you saying?" Goku asked, scratching his head.

"I'm saying maybe that doctor made a mistake and got my DNA instead of yours." Vegita laughed.

"But, Dad, Shen-Kara told us that Goku and Piccolo are her fathers" Trunks interrupted.

"So?" Vegita sneered. "She could have been wrong." He had forgotten about what the dragon had told them.

"Hey you guys!!!" Bulma yelled. "Mahi-chan's not here anymore. Did anyone see where she went?"

"Nani?!!?" Goku shouted. "She's gone again!?!"

"We're at least lucky enough that she doesn't have a tail." Piccolo sighed. He was very concerned about his student. No, his daughter. Now he knew why that strange feeling of protectiveness had grown inside. He didn't like this. No one knew what the now cold-hearted girl's plans were.

"Well, should we search for her?" Krillin asked, looking at the others.

"No." Vegita said calmly. "She will just be annoyed and might decide to kill you."

"That little girl? Kill one of us?" Tein questioned disdainfully.

"Hai, baka." Piccolo agreed. "Didn't anyone else notice something odd when she killed the doctor?"

"Hai, Namek." Vegita answered. "She had no ki. Not even a single trace."

The others thought back to the recent events. "Exactly." Piccolo agreed. "She has become so skilled now that she can completely hide her ki, even while fighting." The reality of the situation had them all reeling from shock.

"That being the case, we'll never find her until she wants to be found." Goku pouted.

Meanwhile, Mahi had decided where she would go. Laughing inside, she wondered what he would think when he saw her. Quickly, she changed course and headed straight for Capsule Corp. and Vegita's gravitational training room. Knowing that it would probably be hours before Vegita arrived, Mahi set about turning on the machine. She would start slow, she thought. She set the machine for ten times Earth's gravity and began to pace the room. Experimenting, Mahi tried to fly. While she was able to fly, it took a little concentration. Sighing at her weakened state, Mahi began to make use of the weights Vegita used. She had to get better. Both Goku, and Vegita were still a lot stronger than she was. Determined to surpass them, Mahi continued her work out.

The group had adjusted to the shock over what Mahi had accomplished. "Ahh!" if as just realizing something, Yamcha screamed, a trace of real fear evident in his voice.

"What is it, Yamcha?" Bulma asked, bored with his easily frightened nature.

"I, um, I just realized that we can't feel her ki at all. And, well, um, she could be a lot stronger than we realize!" Yamcha stuttered.

"Kuso!" Gohan spat out. "That combined with her new found cold-hearted attitude will make her a deadly enemy."

The group finally agreed that they couldn't do anything until she came back. With an agreement to let the others know if Mahi appeared, they each went to their respected homes. Upon reaching his house, Vegita turned to Bulma and his children. "I'm going to go train." he announced. Without waiting for a response, Vegita took off towards the Capsule Corp. and his gravity room. He had decided that if Mahi showed up to kill him as she had been made to, he would be ready for her. But a surprise awaited him there that no one could have guessed.

'Someone is in there.' Vegita swore savagely as he faced the gravity room. Checking the settings, he couldn't believe his eyes. But who would be training at his level. Suddenly it dawned on him. 'Hai, it has to be.' he thought. 'That little bitch is training in my gravity room.' Angry, Vegita didn't even bother to knock, he simply opened the door and walked in. It only took him a second to adjust to the increase in gravity.

"So, you finally came." Mahi stated, her voice just as emotionless as before.

"How dare you think you can just waltz in and use my gravity room!" Vegita shouted at her. Yet he had to admit that he was amazed. She could have only been in the room a few hours. Yet she was effortlessly flying around, and completely controlling her shots.

"I came here because I needed to train under a new challenge. And because by training with you, I will not have to endure those pathetic humans who swim in emotion." Mahi explained, obviously bored.

"And why would that be?" Vegita questioned.

"Because, the humans around you already know how to treat a Sayjin warrior. They will not constantly question me. Nor will they annoy me as much as the others." This said, Mahi stopped and faced Vegita. "Once I told you that I knew why you are the way you are. Now do you understand exactly what I meant?"

"Hai, but then you told me you loved me." Vegita reminded her harshly.

"I did that to taunt you. I didn't feel it, but I knew that you wouldn't like me saying those words to you." Mahi snickered, a look of contempt on her face.

"Fine." Vegita countered. "I don't want you to love me anyway. But I will train with you. Even if you are no match for me."

"Not a match for you?" Mahi laughed. "We shall see how much of a challenge I am." Suddenly, she disappeared. Searching the room with his eyes as well as his ki, Vegita was unable to fine her.

"Shimatta!" he shouted. "Show yourself, and fight me, or are you scared?"

"But I am right here." Mahi whispered. He could feel her breath in his ear. But when he turned there was no one there.

'She couldn't possibly move that fast.' he thought.

"What's the matter, Ouji?" she taunted, her voice seeming to come from everywhere. "Can't you find a weakling mix-breed?"

From her position above him, Mahi smirked, looking very much like Vegita. 'This might prove to be my best idea yet.' she thought. She could see the coldness settle in Vegita's face, hardening his features.

"I am the Sayjin no Ouji and you, mix-breed, will respect me!" he shouted. He didn't know what was happening to him, He felt the coldness enter his heart. His emotions that he still denied were squashed to nothing. The baka onna, Bulma, had made him weak. But now he was strong again, and he would never let her conquer him that way again.
