Darkness
Disclaimer- Piccolo: *looks at the paper that Nuke has given him to read*
Nuke: Well!? Go on, read it!
Piccolo: *rolls his eyes and reads the paper* Nuke does not own DBZ or any of the characters…..except Piccolo…..HEY! You don't own me either!!!
Nuke: *holding her sides from laughing at the look on Piccolo's face*
Piccolo- Why you little-!!
Nuke- *begins running* All right!! I don't own you! I don't own you!!
Back to the middle and around again, I'm gonna be there 'til the end… 100 % pure, fic!! (Yes, I realize that I'm crazy, please don't bring it to my attention)

Keket let out a soft mumble and rolled over, oblivious to the presence of the monster standing over her. A soft whir of gears filled the room as the thing scanned Keket's body.
~Keket Nako~
~Age: 7 and 1/2~
~Residence: 261 Geronimo St., South City~
~Guardians: Mother- Jezzy Nako
Father- deceased, Kenji Nako~
~Directions: take Keket Nako into custody….
Destroy evidence….
Kill….
Kill….
Kill….~
A deep grinding voice spoke into the darkness of the room. The creature leaned over Keket as it opened a valve in the front of its chest and released a form of sleeping gas. The child stirred and coughed as she inhaled the toxin.
"Mmm…. Momma….s'not there…" She mumbled incoherently and was taken into unconsciousness by the gas that filled her lungs.
The creature, moving swiftly and silently in the cover of darkness, grabbed the child by her shirt and tucked her under its strong, cold, steely arm. Keket's tiny arms and legs dangled helplessly as the thing took a quick glance around and crawled out of the window.
~Destroy…destroy…~
It flew out into the open, above the lookout and glared down at it. Opening it's other chest plate, a missile appeared from the slot and aimed itself at the lookout.

Inside his room, meditating, Piccolo was not aware that anything was happening. Kami was resting only lightly, and because there had been no noises, he was not aware of a foreign presence. Popo slept, as always, like a rock, nothing alerted him to danger.
None of them even felt the blast that hit the lookout. It burned them alive in a matter of seconds. There was no time to react to the danger; they were merely swept away like so much ash. The lookout, barely recognizable, plummeted to the Earth below, Along with it, it took Korin's tower which rumbled roughly before it toppling down.
Keket slept peacefully in the kidnapper's arms, unaware that her one and only friend had just been blown away, utterly.
The intruder, bits of it's metal gleaming as the sun began to rise, affirmed its actions and flew off with a secure grip on the girl for which it had come.

On Earth… Gohan sat up in bed, panting heavily…. Something was wrong….

A/N- sorry to have such a short chapter, but I wanted to get this part up…. I know things look bleak, but I have a plan…so stay tuned until I can find time to write the next chapter… *mumbles about mid-terms*
Piccolo: You whine far too much! Why don't you just do the work and shut up?
Nuke: *shoves her paperwork at Piccolo* Why don't YOU try some of this!?
Piccolo: *is speechless* Err…well, yes…I WOULD do this but I…uh…have to train. Yeah…gotta train…so…*ahem*…. I'll see you later…*flies off, scattering Nuke's papers everywhere*
Nuke: *shouts after him* I really loathe you! You know that!?
