Lune heard a computerized voice. "Arriving at coordinates. Closest populated planet: Earth. There is little information on this planet. Its intelligent life consists of humanoids and the planet is rich in resources. The craft will commence landing sequence in 10... 9... 8... 7... 6... 5... 4... 3... 2... 1... 0." The ship began to shake violently as it entered the atmosphere. 'At least this thing isn't going to a planet populated by Nameks,' Lune thought to herself. The craft met with a sudden halt as it crashed onto the planet's surface.
"We had a deal Kosov. Now where is she?"
"She?"
"You know! The female Namek you said you had created!"
"She took off."
" 'Took off'?! Don't play stupid!"
"Easy friend. At this very moment I am locating her." And as if on command, one of Kosov's creations came into the room.
"We have found her. The ship has landed on a planet called Earth."
"That's somewhat better. At least we know where that is, and I know she will be taken care of there."
"You've been there Gearyn?"
"Yes. Once. After Namek was destroyed by Frieza. I will head there immediately. You will receive your payment once I can confirm that the female Namekian is real. Does she have a name?"
"It is Lune."
The Namek Gearyn turned his back to Kosov and left.
Bright light hit her closed eyes and a breeze could be felt all over her body.
"Do you think she's ok?" a child said.
"She looks a little torn up," an older man replied. "Man, I was really hoping it would've been Goku."
"Who's Goku?" A weak voice asked.
"You are ok!" The older one sounded excited.
Lune tried opening her eyes, but the bright light prevented her from doing so.
"Easy. You've been hurt pretty bad. Gohan you stay right here and I'll take her to Korin's."
"Ok Krillin."
"What's your name?"
"Lune." She felt herself being picked up by the one called Krillin. She could've sworn by his voice that he was a grown man, but he had the stature of a child. She heard the wind whistling in her ears as they moved. She realized just sensitive her hearing had become. If she tried hard enough she could hear his heartbeat. She dozed off listening to the whistling and beating. After a while she felt her being lowered to the ground. Correction. A floor.
"Do you have any sensu beans Korin?"
"What do you need them for know Krillin?" This other voice sounded irritated.
"Can't you see she's been hurt bad? They're for her!"
"Fine, fine. Sheesh... No one can take a joke anymore!" He handed Krillin a bag of sensu beans.
"Here Lune, eat this." She did so willingly. And to her amazement, all her strength returned to her. She found herself able to open her eyes. And she couldn't believe what she saw.
"How come you sound like a grown man... and how can you even talk?"
"Be quiet Lune," Krillin whispered to her. "He's respected here."
"That may be but... A talking cat!?"
"You're no stranger either sister. There just isn't any such thing as a female Namek," Korin retorted.
"Why are you so short Krillin? You are an adult right?"
"Yes. I guess I just stopped growing."
"Oh. Sorry. To both of you. I just never saw anything like you two back home."
"You mean New Namek?" Krillin asked.
"No."
"You are Namekian aren't you?"
"Kinda. I wasn't always this way."
"Oh."
"Well thank you Krillin, Korin. Do you think you can hemp me find a place to stay?"
"You can come back with me to Master Ro-- Um... we'll go find my friend Gohan. He was the other one who found you. Maybe his mother will let you stay with them for a little while. Can you fly?" She shook her head. "Well, come here." Lune allowed herself to be picked up again. Krillin then flew back to where he had found her earlier.
"So you're Gohan," Lune said as she was put on the ground. She was thankful that at least kids looked like kids on this planet.
"Hey Gohan, do you think your mom would let her stay at your house?"
"I don't know. We could ask."
"Hey.. Mom?" Gohan asked nervously.
"Yes?" Chi Chi replied.
"Ummm could this girl stay here?"
"Who?" The usual parent concern becoming more and more apparent.
"Krillin and I found a girl that crashed here. Bring her over Krillin! This is Lune mom"
She was speechless. "That's a... a... another Piccolo! I won't have it stay in MY house!"
"Please Ma'am. I'll do anything you ask me to."
"NO! Gohan come inside right now! Your kind is a bad influence on my son! Now GO AWAY!" She slammed the door in Krillin's and Lune's face.
"That went rather well."
"What do you mean?"
"She could've called you a monster or something."
"Oh. Where to now?"
"I guess you'll be coming with me. I have to warn you though. The guys that live me with me are kinda perverted."
"Great. At least you warned me. Though you should warn them. If they try anything I won't hesitate to maim them. I am not in the mood to deal with perverted men."
"I'll do what I can Lune.
"Hey Krillin!" both Master Roshi and Yamcha yelled as he came into the turtle hermit's house.
"Who's your friend?" Yamcha asked.
"Her name is Lune. She crashed here and she just wants some rest. So please just leave her alone."
