Guardians of the Sailor Senshi
As usual this fan fiction is an alternate universe story. Each chapter will focus on one sailor senshi, Jupiter and Mars are the main focus points, at a time. I hope you enjoy my first cross-over story.
AN: Thanks for all your support in this. Horribly sorry I haven't updated. I started work on writing a novel which has left no time for fanfiction. I'll try to keep updating my story. Sorry again.
Chapter 9: Lightning Love
Lita couldn't sleep either, not when she knew what Rei and Vegeta did in that room. She went outside and saw a familar figure, meditating with the moonlight reflecting off his emerald skin.
Piccolo looked up at her and just took in her beauty as she came and sat beside him.
"I couldn't sleep."
"I know." Piccolo said calmly.
"You are going, aren't you?" Lita did not look at him. She looked only at the moon.
"My home is there. Just like your home is here." Piccolo said cooly.
Lita knew it was too good to be true. "So once we beat Frieza, you are just going to leave?"
Piccolo took in the sadness in her words. "I cannot stay."
"Then I won't beat Frieza. I won't let you go." Lita threw her arms around Piccolo.
Piccolo tensed in her arms. "But you must. People will die if you don't."
"Piccolo, I love you!" Lita began crying. "What about us?"
"I'm sorry, Lita, but I cannot stay here with you. It's hard for me, too."
"NO!" Lita continued to hold Piccolo.
Piccolo kept his stoic facade. "Lita. Stop crying. Stop being selfish."
"SELFISH!" Lita sobbed. "I finally found a great guy and he just leaves!"
Piccolo sighed. "We both have our worlds to protect."
Gohan came out. "What's wrong, Piccolo?"
Lita stood, rubbing her tears. "I won't lose you." Lita ran off.
Piccolo stood. "Lita!"
Gohan kept Piccolo from runing after her. "She needs time to herself."
"I cannot stay here, Gohan."
"I know, sensei."
Lita leaned against the tree and hoped Piccolo couldn't hear her crying, still. Lita didn't want to lose Piccolo, and she was sure Piccolo felt the same way but could she really blame him. Piccolo was brought to this world against his will. Piccolo wouldn't ever be able to go back if he stayed. He had people who depended on him and loved him. To be so selfish and stay, would be against everything Piccolo was about.
Lita then decided. If he couldn't stay here, she would go live with him.
Piccolo walked up to her. "You do not know how I live."
Lita wiped her tears. "I do not care."
"I am nomadic. I have no home."
"I do not care." Lita stood firm.
"You cannot leave your friends."
"I can. And I will."
"You sure are stubborn. I guess Dende will house us." Piccolo smirked. He was secretly hoping she would come with him.
"See. We will be together."
Piccolo set his hands on her shoulders. "Are you sure, Lita? It could be different."
"I don't care."
"You don't seem to care about alot of things." Piccolo ran his hands down her arms. "Your friends, your family..."
"It all doesn't matter to me. I just want to be with the man I love! They'll understand."
"Will they?" Piccolo mumbled. "Your friends just think I'm some big green alien freak."
"I know them. They'll have to understand." Lita kept her chin up wanting to be strong, to show Piccolo should was set in her mind.
Piccolo sighed as he looked down into her green eyes. "Lita, talk to them, first. You know I will take you but you must discuss this with your friends. You also must consider what we feel now might change and then how will you get back. Think of what you will be leaving. Is it really worth it?"
Lita took in his words for a minute. "What do you mean it might change?"
"I do not know." Piccolo sighed again, stepping away from Lita.
"Then I do not know either. If you do not know if you will continue to feel the same for me then I do not know if I can go with you."
"You do not understand. You are just a child, how could you?" Piccolo grumbled as he walked away, leaving Lita in utter shock at his cold words.
Lita shook her head and ran after Piccolo. She grabbed his arm forcefully. "No. I will not let you leave like this."
"You do not have a choice." Piccolo tossed Lita off his arm. Lita fell to the ground roughly. Piccolo glanced at her with concern but continued away from her when he saw she was fine.
Lita did not see Piccolo's look of concern, all she saw was him walking away from her so she shouted. "Don't you leave me, Piccolo! I want to understand! Help me to understand!"
Piccolo stopped, his back still to her. "I am not a man. That is all you need to know."
"Not a... man? Then what are you?" Lita stood.
"I am nothing. How can... I..." Piccolo tensed, such emotions had never coarsed through his veins.
"You are everything to me, Piccolo. Please just explain to me. We can work it out. I want to be with you!"
"That's just it. You cannot be with me. I am asexual. I shouldn't even feel this way towards you." Piccolo turned to her, his face full of emotion... full of love.
"Asexual... that doesn't matter to me. Even so, if we love each other we can overcome it."
"As a Namek, I am asexual, as my race is. But I was born on Earth and therefore became a sexual being. So as my race dictates I should not be attracted to someone, but as I was born on Earth I have the capacity of having a gender."
Lita was even more confused. So was he asexual or not?
"In my mind and heart I have always been asexual. But I am... a man. I just never wanted to be before. I never wanted to be around a woman. No offense but the women I've met are bossy and domineering and most are completely terrified of me. You are truly the first woman I've met that has looked at me like I was no different from her."
Lita looked at Piccolo tears in her eyes. "Piccolo I want to be with you. But only if you want to be with me."
"Lita," Piccolo placed his hand on her cheek. "I'd be honored if you came with me, and lived at Dende's Lookout with me."
Lita smiled. "Then it's settled. You don't have to worry about me. I can take care of the girls. They'll understand... at least you don't have a wife and kid. You don't, do you?"
Piccolo smirked. "No, I don't. Neither does Vegeta. Bulma is not his wife. But Trunks is his son. It is a very complicated situation."
"I see. Do you know anything Piccolo? I mean I don't want Rei to get hurt."
"Vegeta may be an asshole but I am positive that he cares strongly for Rei." Piccolo's ear twitched. "Speak of the devil..."
Vegeta sauntered up. "You two planning a little romp?"
Lita put her hands on her hips. "No. We're not like you and Rei, we can keep our passion bottled, until we beat Frieza."
"Oh, I see. Then what? The Namek is going to stay here and protect you?" Vegeta mocked.
"No! I'm going back with him!"
"Oh ho. And then who will protect your pathetic dimension?" Vegeta quipped as he walked away.
Lita hadn't even thought of it. Who will be Sailor Jupiter? Who will fight along side the sailor scouts? Who will take her place?
"Even Vegeta has thought this through, more than us." Piccolo groaned. "No wonder he did what he did. He figured if he made a strong enough bond she'd have to come with him."
"Or he'd have to stay with her." Lita added.
Piccolo thought about it for a moment. "I can't stay here."
"I know. I know what I have to do." Lita gave Piccolo a kiss on the cheek and skipped off only to turn back and add, "Don't worry. Worrying doesn't become you."
Piccolo blushed. "Lita, are you sure?"
"Yes, I'm sure. I've never been more sure of anything!" Lita ran off into Rei's room.
Piccolo stood there for a moment. What would happen when they beat Frieza? Would Lita really give up everything she knew and cared about just to be with him, and why couldn't he do the same? He knew why he couldn't stay. There was no place for a huge green man in this dimension.
But again he wondered why she was willing to leave everything?
"Love... so it isn't irrelevant." Piccolo looked up at the full moon.
