Bribe for Piccolo
Chapter 9

"Get home? You're kidding right…" Bulma said, "this place is stupendous! We can't leave yet!" The wind blew in a mellow speed as they all stared at Bulma.
"Listen Bulma, I know that you really want to get your Nobel Prize but we can't stay here! And besides, how DO we get home, do you know that much?" Vegeta said gruffly. Farfuro chuckled, placing his fingers around his chin cupping it within his hand.
"I do say Bulma, they have a point." He said. Bulma put her hands on her hips in a huff.
"Don't you guys get it? I'm as smart if not the smartest woman in the world! Come on, I can get us home! Just give me time ok!" She said stomping off. Phyl grunted and turned away from everyone.
"You all are pathetic, if you stay out here half of you are surely going to be killed, if you go back inside that stupid Capsule Corps. who knows what's going on in there…" He said and turned his head back around, a defiant grin shaping his lips.
"You're all doomed until your little human friend decides to take you back home…she's going to be eaten you do know this…" He said and walked off, chuckling. Gohan and Trunks stared at him.
"Boy I'd like to ring that guys neck with no questions asked!" Trunks said glaring. Gohan nodded with silence. Nikki suddenly felt a cool trickle of water run across her foot. She looked down at the ground, water starting to slither its way through the dry leaves.
"Um…hey guys…" She said carefully. Everyone looked at her, and then followed her gaze down to the ground.
"W-whats…that…" She asked.
"Ah! Its water! B-but that means…" DD said and they all turned their gazes over to the trees behind them, water bursting through the limbs.
"TIDAL WAVE!" Aki screamed and they all tried to start running.
"No good! It's gonna hit us!" Kitt yelled. Suddenly Piccolo, Gohan, Trunks, Vegeta, Guygo and Farfuro grabbed the unable to fly of the bunch and burst up into the air before the wave came crashing down onto them.
"Do you have any idea what water does to my hair!" Nikki complained. Vegeta grunted, holding onto Nikki. Trunks suddenly gasped and looked at Gohan.
"What about Bulma!" Gohan spat out before Trunks could say it. Aki and Nikki looked at each other.
"Why do I have a feeling she was behind that tidal wave…" Nikki said. Vegeta chuckled wickedly.
"Wouldn't surprise me! That woman is always doing the wrong things at the strangest times…" He blurted roughly. Nikki slapped Vegeta upside the head from below his grasp.
"Erk!" He bellowed and momentarily loosened his grip on Nikki.
"VEGETA!" Nikki screamed as she went tumbling down into the river of water below them.
"Dad!" Trunks scorned suddenly. Gohan looked around.
"Where did she go?!" He asked searching the surface with his eyes.
"Oh my gosh! Somebody go get her!" Kitt yelled at them, looking up at Piccolo who was holding her. Piccolo grunted.
"I know what that means…" He said and flew over to Gohan.
"Take her, I'll go find Nikki." He said and Gohan took Kitt under his arm as Piccolo flew down above the river of water flying overtop of it searching its surface for any sign of the young authoress. He narrowed his eyes and grunted again. Now it became apparent that she went under the water…Piccolo sighed and brought back his arms, diving into the water.
Everyone stared down at the quickly moving water, no sign of Nikki, nor Piccolo…
"This is suspenseful! Who wants popcorn?" Guygo called. A vein popped out of Farfuro's forehead and he punched Guygo in the head.
"YOW!" Guygo screeched.
Piccolo swam quickly under the water, he was able to keep his eyes open, but it was hard to see anything with the water moving so quickly and being incredibly mucky. He balled his hands together and ki energy began to form in his palms, lighting up the murky water. He could see for a while on, but it wasn't nearly enough light. Bubbles floated out of his nose as he began to need air. The ki energy quickly dissipated and he swam back up, breaking to the surface and taking a noisy breath. He looked up at the group who were a ways away; they looked like little specks in the sky. He grunted and jumped out of the water momentarily and then dived back in.
"Mmmmm…." Gohan bit his lip nervously, "what's taking so long?"
Vegeta grunted and looked at Gohan.
"Its obvious he hasn't found her yet…and if he has she could be dead for all we know." He said. Everyone stared at Vegeta. Vegeta crossed his arms and shrugged.
"I think we should go and look for them now." DD said.
"Yeah…even Piccolo could be in trouble." Kitt said. Everyone stared at Kitt.
"What? Oh stop doing that…" They continued to stare. Kitt sighed.
"Ok so its unlikely that Piccolo's in trouble, but we don't know where Phyl is, or Nikki, or Bulma, OR Piccolo…so what good is that?" She said.
"Is it time for a lunch break cuse I'm kinda hungry…" Aki whined, "and I want Piccolo to come back cuse I want him to hold me…" She whined again.
"Well were not going to get anywhere just sitting here…lets go then you guys." Trunks said and flew off upstream. Everyone stared after him for a moment.
"Who died and made him leader of this mission…" Vegeta grunted and flew off as well. Everyone sighed and followed on, holding their share of the non-flyers.
"Do we get a prize if we find them?" Aki asked.
"AKI!"
E/N: Ok um so I uh….made this short….and I'll get more out whenever I pretty much feel like it, so uh…stay tuned I guess.
