The next day, (for Jesscheaux and Piccolo) Jesscheaux' alarm clock went off
next to her head: "Lean on me! when you're not strong!" the radio sang directly
in her ear. She slammed her hand down on the snooze button, rolled over, and
was about to go back to sleep, when Piccolo ripped the covers off of her and
yelled: "Good morning, sunshine!" he handed her a glass of water, "Here's
your breakfast, now hurry up! We've got lots of training to do!"
(Wow, he sure is in a good mood today) thought Jesscheaux as she sleepily
saluted him and muttered "Sir yes sir."

So their days of training together in the chamber went on. After much discussion
they decided it would be best if they didn't try fusion. It was too risky.
As for their training, every day brought increased strength, agility, and speed
to the two partners. To Jesscheaux, Piccolo grew more amazing everyday,
and Jesscheaux was teaching Piccolo in ways he had never known before.

After a grueling training session, Jesscheaux and Piccolo were taking a
short break. Piccolo was drinking water and Jesscheaux had snuck
some Coca-cola** into the chamber. "There ain't nothing like the real thing!" she
sighed happily.

They sat next to each other as they drank and Piccolo offered
her some of his water " You know you should stop drinking so much of that stuff,"

She accepted the water and replied "I know, but I just can't get enough!"
She handed him back his glass of water and their hands accidently brushed
each other. Piccolo blushed a bit and almost dropped it. (What's wrong with me!)
he thought ( What is this strange feeling?) Something he had never before felt.

"Are you Ok?" Jesscheaux asked worriedly seeing the look on his face.

"*cough* I'm fine, you?"

"I'm great! Ready to start again?"

"You bet!"

As they stood up, they ended up very close to each other. They froze for a
second and Jesscheaux looked up at Piccolo. He looked back at her and
then put his arms around her. She relented to his embrace and they moved
slowly towards each other and kissed gently. After a few moments they
pulled away from each other and Piccolo dropped his grip on Jesscheaux.
She was a dark pink color and she looked at the ground.

Piccolo cleared his throat and said rather lightly "Well, I guess it's time we get back
to training...."

"Yeah," she replied "Piccolo?"she asked as he began to walk away.

He turned back around and waited for her words.

"That was nice........." she said.

He smiled and nodded. Then, as if nothing had happened, the Namek and
the Spectronian trained on into the day.

Krillin wasn't wasting any time while waiting for his turn in the time chamber.
The warriors in waiting each took a turn sparring with each other, the winner
of the match going up against the next warrior. Reyanne was watching
from the sidelines with Puar as Krillin and Yamcha were about to begin.

"You ready for this, bro?" Krillin asked Yamcha.

"As sure as the sun rises in the West, dude!" Yamcha answered.

"You moron! The sun rises in the EAST and sets in the WEST!"

Yamcha blushed and yelled back: "I knew that! What do you think,
you're Einstein or something?"

"Well, E does equal (=) mc2 (squared)!"

"Oh shut up brainiac, and let's get down to business!"

"Ok, Yamcha, take this!" Krillin yelled as he formed a ball of energy in his
hand and it took on the shape of a round flat object. "DESTRUCTO DISK!"

(Author's Note: Yes, I will be using FUNimation terms and spellings throughout
this entire story! Don't get mad at me, The only DBZ I've ever seen is the FUNi
dub and I like it!)

Krillin then threw it at Yamcha. Reyanne was confused. Should she root for
her best friend (Krillin) or her boyfriend? (Yamcha). Too late to decide now!
The disk was hurtling towards Yamcha faster and faster, and he waited till
the last second and JUST moved out of the way.

"HAHAHA!!!! Krillin, is that the best you can do?"

"No, you dipstick! I'm just warming up." He clenched his fists and then flew
at Yamcha ferociously. The two fought furiously with their fists so fast that
even Tien's three eyes couldn't keep up with them.

"Aaaaaaaahhhh!" yelled Yamcha as he threw a ball of raw energy at Krillin.

Krillin readied himself, arms outstretched, to catch the blast. He did so and
tossed it into the sky. Reyanne and Tien clapped from down below.

"Good show!" said Tien. Krillin closed his eyes momentarily to bask
in his glory and Yamcha took the opportunity to deliver a gut-busting
kick. Krillin gasped in pain as he clutched his stomach. He swallowed
and lifted his watery eyes to look at Yamcha.

"Hey baldy! That was nothing, come on, don't cry!" Yamcha teased.

Krillin smiled and then tore his hands up into clamshell position. "You asked
for it, pal." he said to Yamcha and began " Ka--------------------------Me------------------------
Ha----------------------------" he dragged it out. Yamcha began to twitch.
"Me-ha!" Krillin finished quickly and fired the at a terrified Yamcha.

The blast hit direct on and Yamcha fell to the ground. Krillin smiled
and dusted off his hands "All in a days work."

Reyanne rushed to Yamcha's side, gave him some water and made sure he was Ok.
Then, she turned to face Krillin, he body colored red in her rage. "Krillin! Look
what you did to my poor Yamcha!"

"Reyanne, I'm fine" Yamcha spoke as he stood up.

"I ought to pound you into the ground!"she continued. Krillin put his hands up and
starting backing away slowly. She reached out and grabbed him by the shirt and
lifted him a foot off the ground. "You're gonna get it mister!" she said and was
about to super-punch Krillin. He braced himself for the blow. Before she could
deliver it, Yamcha rushed up and placed his hand on one of Reyanne's shoulders.
Her color changed rapidly to normal. "Put him down" Yamcha told her gently.
She suddenly realized what she was about to do, dropped Krillin, and crumbled
to the ground sobbing. "Oh Krillin! I'm so sorry! I didn't mean it!"

"There, there." he said as he patted her. "It's ok, I understand."

"We're still friends right?"

"Best friends!" he exclaimed and they hugged each other. Yamcha smiled at them
and then went up to Reyanne. He put his arm around her and squeezed her shoulders.

"You ok now?" he asked softly.

"Yeah, thanks."

"Don't mention it."

They decided that they'd had enough training for today.

Vegeta had been watching them from his position, leaning up against the wall.
(Fools) he thought (I've had enough of their madness!)

Goku and Gohan had gone fishing and arrived back at the time chamber just
after the 'incident'.

"Look what we caught!" yelled Gohan as he held up a bunch of fish.

"Fish Fry!" chimed in Goku.

Vegeta snorted, he knew that Kakarott would end up eating most of the
fish himself.

So, on the outside, one day passed and on the inside of the hyperbolic time
chamber one whole year passed for Jesscheaux and Piccolo.
Morning broke and the Z fighters gathered around the door to welcome
their comrades back. Gohan was the first one there, he couldn't wait
to see Piccolo. The door started to creak open slowly and a blinding
light shone from the cracks. Side by side, Piccolo and Jesscheaux
emerged from the room.

"Piccolo!" cried Gohan and he rushed up to hug him.

"I missed you, kid."

Jesscheaux and Reyanne embraced and Reyanne told Jesscheaux " You look
great! That must've been really tough though, spending a year in there."

"It was all right" Jesscheaux answered and went back beside Piccolo.

The two warriors faces shone happily as they looked at each other.

"Hey............" said Goku "There's something different about you guys!"

Piccolo placed his arm around Jesscheaux and they all gasped. Piccolo ignored
them and smiled at her. "Well, who's next?" he inquired.

"I vote Reyanne and Yamcha." said Goku.

"Well, what do you say?" Yamcha asked Reyanne "Do you think you're ready?"

She smiled and nodded. Yamcha looked at Piccolo, "I don't have to drag MY
girlfriend in." he said to him. Piccolo face-faulted and then cleared his throat.

"Good luck to you two." was his reply.
Yamcha and Reyanne entered the room and Dende closed the door.

I'm not going to drag their time chamber training out forever, so in the next
chapter we'll have fast forwarded to when Vegeta comes out of the chamber.
