The Lost Soul Chapter 2

Authors note: this is chapter two, they're still in the lab too!!


For a few weeks, Serena had been staying at Goku's house. That meant Piccolo was there too. He couldn't explain it, but he felt something about her, something he's never felt before. Serena felt the same way.
She stood on the back porch in cool evening breeze. The boys came in from training, along with Piccolo.
"Hard day training?" Chichi asked kissing her husband. Goku smiled. Piccolo was walking towards the shower, but stopped when he saw Serena standing alone. He walked behind her quietly and stood still. He could smell her perfume.
"Do you like that?" he asked motioning towards the sunset. Serena turned around.
"Yes," she whispered. The sky was a pale pink and a dark blue, almost violet. The tree's lined the horizon, like a setting point. Its was beautiful. T he sun was a soft orange in the center of it all.
"So...what did you do today?" Piccolo asked casually. He sat down on the lawn chair. But the chair broke and he fell to the floor. Serena laughed, holding out her hand. Piccolo grabbed it, and stood up. Her hands were soft, he liked that.
"Want to see what I did?" She smiled. Piccolo nodded. Serena pulled up a lap top and started hitting a few keys. Then a door appeared behind Piccolo. Serena grabbed his hand and went in.
The first site was a beautiful garden. Lilacs, Daffodils, tulips and many more flowers were in there. Huge masculine tree's surrounded the area. In the middle was a small wooden bench under the branches. The lucious green grass was soft and smelled sweet. There was a water fall in the back, and a small pool of water below it. Serena kneeled beside it. She motioned for Piccolo to sit across from her. Then she picked a yellow rose and handed it to him.
"This one's my favourite," she smiled. Piccolo looked at it carefully, beautiful.....Just like her. The two talked for hours, and the evening grew to night. But after awhile, Serena showed Piccolo the rest of her lab, and then they went outside to join everyone else.
Shadows swayed back and forth, and dots of light shown over the lawn. These were the lightning bugs Gohan was trying to catch. Goku joined in to help. ChiChi and Bulma were drinking tea on the porch gossiping about their day. Serena looked up at the sky. The stars were covering the heavenly face. Somehow, She couldn't enjoy it. Something was bothering her. Vegeta then walked up behind her.
"I told you he'd come,"
Serena didn't answer. Piccolo put his hand on her shoulder to try and comfort her. She gave a weak smile, then looked back up at the sky.
