Jesscheaux was the happiest being in the universe today. The time had
come, they were going to use to Dragonballs to wish Piccolo back
from the afterworld.

Reyanne hadn't seen Jesscheaux so happy ever; she was literally
bouncing off the walls.

Dende walked in then asked tentatively, "Jesscheaux? Can I talk to you
for a second?"

She walked up to him, bent down, and said "Sure, shoot!"

He gulped nervously and hung his head, "It's the Dragonballs...." he said
and her happiness vanished.

"What's wrong?"

"Well, Goku kind've miscalculated the number of days till they're active again."

"AND?"

"Well, it'll be another week and a half before we can use them."

Her face went blank at this horrible news and her body turned white as a sheet.
"Nnno! This can't be happening!" she cried "Piccolo," she whispered and a great
torrent of tears ran down her face.

Goku was sad also.
"Oh Piccolo, why couldn't it have been me?" he asked himself. "Are you okay, Jesscheaux?"

"I'll be fine, Goku, I can take it. I guess I just need to be alone now." she said and pulled
her wings into a shell around her body.

"Well, all right, then." said Goku and, head down, he walked to the edge of the lookout
and teleported out of sight. Reyanne sighed and left the lookout also.
And so the sun set on this horribly disappointing day.


* * * * * *

It was a peaceful morning at Krillin's house and he yawned and stretched,
looking out the window at a marvelous sunrise. He drank his morning
cup of coffee and then went to wake Reyanne up so they could start their
days training.
After all these years, Master Roshi's training had stuck with Krillin and he looked
back on those times, thinking of all the fun he and Goku had with him and each other.
He snapped out of his reverie as he reached Reyanne's door. Krillin knocked
a couple of times and when there was no answer he opened the door slowly.

"Reyanne?" his nasal voice echoed into the room.

He walked into the room and saw that her window was open with the curtains
fluttering in the early morning breeze. Thinking she might be outside, Krillin
looked out the window and in all directions. For some reason he couldn't sense
her ki at all. He shrugged his shoulder's and turned back around.
He was about to leave the room, but took another look around and spotted
a white envelope with his name on it, lying on her bed.
It read:

Dearest Krillin,

Yamcha and I have decided to elope! I know this came
on all of a sudden, but don't worry about us. We just really
weren't into the whole huge wedding thing and decided to have a small
private ceremony. By the time you get this, we'll already be married
and headed to Hawaii to spend out honeymoon there. Keep training, and you
might want to go see Tien, as he'll be quite shocked also. Give my
regards to Chaoutzu and Puar. Tell Jesscheaux that I wish her
happiness and I hope Piccolo comes back soon. Well, I've got
to go, Yamcha is waiting. We'll be back some time this year.

Love your best friend,

Reyanne.

Krillin finished the letter and a dazed look came across his face.

"She's gone." he said to himself.
He walked outside preparing to go see Tien, but Tien had already
beat him. He flew down along with Chaoutzu and Puar, holding a similar
letter with the same dazed look on his face.

"I can't believe it." he said to Krillin.

"Yeah, me neither. Those CrAzY KiDs! I guess we'd better tell the others."

* * * * *
Meanwhile, in the afterworld, Piccolo had began his training with King Kai
at the end of snake way, but was having a hard time concentrating.
His thoughts kept drifting back to Jesscheaux, and his heart anxiously
awaited the time they would be together again.

"I can't take this anymore, King Kai!" he yelled at his short, blue master,
"I need to be with her!"

"Patience colo, " King Kai answered him, "It will be another week
and a half until the Dragonballs may be used again. So why don't you try
and do your best to get stronger while you're here?"

Piccolo nodded with a determined look on his face (If not for myself,) he thought
(I'll do it for her.)

King Kai nodded, "Now, I need a thousand push-ups, on the double!" he commanded his
pupil. Piccolo rolled his eyes and did what he was told.


* * * * * *

Back on earth, the days passed slowly. Krillin and Tien told the others about
Yamcha and Reyanne and they were all equally shocked.
Jesscheaux just smiled and said: "I know she'll be happy, and that's all that matters."

Krillin and Tien then decided to be roommates and training partners since their
other ones were gone.

"Oh well, you've just got to take what life throws at you." Krillin mused

"Yep!" Tien agreed "Now let's train!"

The two new partners did a high five and started their stretching exercices.

* * * * * *

A week and a half passed and it was finally time to use the Dragonballs again.
The 7 orbs began to glow red and orange one by one as they waited to
be used once again.

The day has finally come! What will the Z warriors wish for? Will Piccolo
come back from the afterworld? Find out next time, in Chapter 12
of the Spectrum Revolution!
