"Satan College is a wonderful school for the budding youth of today's intellectual society…"
Piccolo yawned as the tour guide droned on incessantly and he walked away from the group of human brain farm students.
Satan College was a foresty campus, peaceful and quiet, perfect for Piccolo to escape and relax. The namek had barely begun to meditate when the sounds of crunching bark echoed in his ears.
'What the Hell…' he opened one eye and saw Deshee hounding a squirrel, who'd caught the pup's attention.
Her thong sandals made it difficult for her to climb but she eventually made it out to the long branch leading to her prey. A creek resounded from the thin branch as the tree cried out against Deshee's weight, getting louder with each step she took.
************************************************************************
Gohan was disappointed that Piccolo had taken off so quickly, they still had two more campuses to see and the boy figured his sensei would wander off each time. Then …he saw Videl…
************************************************************************
The branch snapped right out from under Deshee's feet. Within about five inches of the ground, the girl suddenly stopped falling.
"You need to be much more careful, dumbass!" Piccolo's voice rumbled in the Janjin-kee's ears.
"Mr. Piccolo?!"
The girl twisted and turned to see her savior as he floated above the ground. Blood rushed to her head as she hung, dangling over Piccolo's arm. Clutching her hips, the demon flipped her right-side up and descended tot he ground.
"Where you go?"
"I got bored…How 'bout you?"
"Wanted follow you. No like how humans stare," she pouted.
"Well…you don't exactly look human…"
Deshee frowned, "Neither you!"
"It's 'neither DO you' by the way…and obviously I don't…"
Piccolo started to walk away, his cape brushing against the girl's face. Deshee felt confused, Piccolo had saved her from certain death or rape at the very least but he was so cold.
"Mrs. Chichi say I go live with her and Gohan now!" she called to his retreating form, "I stay in house!"
Piccolo stopped walking.
"Chichi say it look bad if I live with you."
Piccolo snarled over his shoulder, "Well, you can tell that bitch it's highly unlikely that someone would rape the victim of an intended rape after saving the poor fool! Get out of here, Deshee!"
The Janjin-kee put her hand over her heart as Piccolo flew off in a blast of white ki. Deshee fell to the ground, unconscious.
************************************************************************
When Deshee awoke there was a cold, wet cloth on her forehead and she was bundled up in blankets. All she could feel at that point were the wounds Piccolo's words had left on her heart. Her eyes focused and she realized she was back at the Son residence, lying in a bed.
A green hand reached for the cloth and Deshee sank her claws into its flesh, scared by the sudden movement.
"Son of a bitch!!!"
The Janjin-kee released her grip when she recognized Piccolo's voice. Groggy with sleep, she passed out on the bed.
"Damn little shit! If this is how I get treated for saving you AGAIN then screw this!" the demon fumed as he headed toward the door.
"Mommyyyyy!!!"
Piccolo turned around and realized Deshee had fallen back asleep.
"Mommyyyyy! Make them stop! Don't let them! Mommyyyyy!!!!"
The namek dashed to Deshee's side and shook her until her eyes opened…and when they did, tears came.
"Deshee, kid, are you alright?"
The girl trembled, scared and glistening with sweat, "My Mommy," she wrapped her arms around Piccolo's neck and buried her face in his white collar while she sobbed. "My Mommy, they took her away! I lied Piccolo, she did not just die, they KILLED HER!"
The demon held her, rocking gently, "W-What happened?" he asked softly.
"I don't know…she was drag to King's bedroom just like she normally is drag to beds but I never saw her after! I asked and asked! I beg to know but just got whip every time I ask…they laugh, say she good and dead, that she deserve it!"
"Who said this?" Piccolo's obsidian eyes flashed.
"Guards…" Deshee's body shook, each tremor tearing at the namek's heart.
"I'm so sorry I left you back at the college, kid…I feel like such a- a bastard…"
"What happen?"
"I'll explain…"
**********~~~~~~~~~~**********~~~~~~~~~~**********~~~~~~~~~~*********
Piccolo, annoyed that Deshee would blindly follow Chichi's advice without realizing it's hidden meaning and confused about how he was feeling, flew off to find Gohan.
Chichi had thrown a fit!
"Where's Deshee?! You raped her and left her for dead, didn't you?! How dare you! Get her back, NOW!!!"
The tour stopped as all the people stared at the green man and Piccolo then understood why Deshee had run off to avoid them.
'This is why I live in seclusion! Damn humans!'
Gohan followed Piccolo back into the forest where Deshee lay among the fallen leaves.
"Take her back to our home, Piccolo. My mom and I will be back in a few hours after we finish with these colleges, 'kay?"
The demon already had the girl in his arms.
"And Piccolo?" Gohan's eyes where pleading, "Be good to her…"
With a snort Piccolo lifted off and flew back to the house.
**********~~~~~~~~~~**********~~~~~~~~~~**********~~~~~~~~~~*********
"So you have take care of me this whole time?"
The demon sat on the edge of her bed and nodded. Squirming under the covers, Deshee scooted over to Piccolo and hugged him.
"Thank you."
He let his arms wrap around her. One of his hands stroked her short hair while the other absent-mindedly fondled the soft feathers flowing from Deshee's back less dress. Deshee sighed, feeling the warmth of Piccolo's body against her own she was able to lighten the darkness of her past with the joy she felt now.
The demon allowed himself to feel the pleasure from a simple embrace before he got uncomfortable and pulled away. Deshee had fallen asleep in his arms and, as he laid her down, he kissed her cheek.
