Niy paused in indecision as the Namek landed. It wasn't that she feared him, it was just that Piccolo was the closest thing that resembled her in any way, shape, or form, and she was reluctant to having to deal with him.
"What are you here for, Piccolo," Niy snarled after the awkward moment.
"I could ask the same of you," Piccolo growled back. "But there's only so much you want to know about a freak."
Niy hissed back in irritation, "My name is Niy, and I am not a freak! Compared to your miserable Namek genes, I am far perfected."
"But not perfect," Piccolo retorted back. "You are far from the perfection the androids displayed, so don't flatter yourself."
Niy worked up into a rage and hunkered down into a fighting pose, shouting, "Then let me prove my worth!"
Suddenly, Niy charged into the air, ready to beat the hell out of the Namek who was taking up a defensive position.
"Stop this right now," Goku said, instantly appearing between the charging Niy and Piccolo, making Niy slam to a halt. "I did not come here to fight. My wife is already peeved because I left the house to see a dead body that is obviously not dead. If you'll excuse me, my family needs me."
Niy blinked in confusion. This was either the dumbest person she ever met or he was extremely powerful and ignorant of her.
Piccolo stared at him with a scowl on his green face. Goku was underestimating the prey.
Niy shook off her astonishment and laughed evilly. "Be excused? Oh, no, no, you're not excused," Niy yelled. "In fact if you want to leave, I'll give you a free ride- a free ride to the next dimension!" Niy raised her hands above her head, ready to power up.
"Go ahead," Goku said smiling smugly.
"Goku are you that stupid?! Just feel her power level," Piccolo cried stupefied.
"Don't worry Piccolo, she isn't a threat."
The Namek raised a green bulge of his eyebrow and thought, "I know Goku has grown monumentally in power, but he's acting as if this freak's blasts won't even leave a scratch. But then again, when did I start caring about what happened to Goku?" Piccolo bared his fangs in a growl, but didn't move another inch.
"You'll regret you didn't heed Piccolo's warning," Niy said, a confident one-sided smile on her face.
"We'll see about that," Goku replied, stretching hos arms out as far as they would go. "Here," he said, "Take your best shot."
Niy frowned at Goku's mockery of her power and summoned her ki to finish this monkey-man's life for good. She smiled, feeling victorious as she felt the power swell inside of her. Instantly, an icy chill crawled up her spine and flooded her veins. Niy screamed in pain as she felt her body solidify and stiffen.
Goku smiled knowingly. Niy had never stood a chance.
Piccolo glared at Goku, thought of a few four-lettered words in Namek, and eyed Niy again cautiously.
Although she was a complete mystery to him, there was something familiar about her power. He could feel its icyness, its waves of motion, and beneath that, he could feel a constant drumming and pounding that reminded him of the heartbeat of the Earth. It was then that Piccolo became frozen as realization whacked him over the head.
"Goku," Piccolo's voice snapped, "Do you feel that? Her power resembles that of the Guardian of the Earth! You can feel Earth's spirit inside of her!"
"What," Goku mumbled to himself questioningly as he focused on Niy's increasing power. "You're right Piccolo. She feels like… a giant spirit bomb or something."
"What did you just say?!"
"I said Niy's power feels like she's a giant spirit bomb," Goku shouted back.
In side his mind Piccolo trembled. In all of their other fights, the other Earth had always been on their side, and the Z fighters had always taken the Earth's assistance for granted. What would happen to them now that the Earth had chosen to root for the bad guy?"
