Quiet Child
Part 2
Findings
After the little flight Kioshi was glad to be on the ground as they landed in front of the house and Gohan sat her down. Having sensed them nearing Trunks came running out of the house to see who was coming. Seeing him Kioshi ducked behind Gohan's leg and peeked out from behind him.
Trunks blinked looking at Kioshi. "Hey Gohan..." He said pointing. "Who's she?"
Gohan looked down. "Oh her? This is a friend of mine, Kioshi. We came to talk to your mom. Is she home?" He asked.
Trunks blinked trying to get a good look at the girl hiding behind Gohan. "Uhm... yeh, I think she's around back..."
"Alright, thanks." Gohan said starting to walk towards the back of the house.
Kioshi was just standing there sort of staring at Trunks for a minute, then she realized that Gohan was moving and turned and hurried after him, letting Trunks get a good look at her tail.
Trunks followed and hovered next to Gohan. "She has a tail?!" He whispered into his ear.
"That's why we needed to talk to your mom, we need to find out whether or not she's Saiyan." He said quietly.
"Oh..." Trunks said landing back on the ground and walking along side Gohan, Kioshi on the other side of Videl, obviously more than a little people shy. "She sure doesn't act like it..." He muttered, and then it sort of clicked for him and did a double take looking to Kioshi. 'But I thought we were the only saiyans left...' He thought to himself before looking again, "She can't be a saiyan!" He exclaimed, loud enough that just about everyone within fifty yards of them heard it.
Vegeta was in the back yard, and hearing his sons shout he shot up out of his lawn chair, eyes wide, staring at them as they rounded the corner. "What did you say?!" He shouted in surprise.
"Could you have been any louder Trunks?" Gohan whispered through his teeth.
A large bead of sweat formed on the back of Trunks' head. "Uhm... hello father... I just uhm... uh... is mom home?"
"I'm right here Trunks." Bulma interrupted walking out the back door. "Oh, hi Gohan, Videl. What are you doing here?"
'Phew that was a little too close.' Gohan thought wiping the sweat from his brow. "Hi Bulma! I needed to talk to you about something in private!" He said grabbing Kioshi and throwing her on his shoulders then rushing and slinging Bulma back inside.
"What was that idiot son of Kakarot talking about Trunks?" Vegeta said looking down at his son.
"Uhm... uh... well, dad, you see... uh..." Trunks stuttered out nervously.
"Spit it out!"
"This is going to be one of those days..." Videl sighed watching as Vegeta shook Trunks by his shoulders.
Inside
"What on Earth is going on with you Gohan?" Bulma said with her hands on her hips.
"It's not me. It's Kioshi." He said lifting her off his shoulders and setting her back down on the ground. Kioshi almost instantly scurried behind him and clung to his pant leg looking up at the unfamiliar face.
"Ok..." Bulma said looking down at her. "Could I get a better explanation than that maybe?"
"Ok... here goes. I ran into her in the street. She doesn't remember where she came from, and she has a tail. I think she might be a saiyan. That better?"
"A saiyan?! But how!" Bulma said staring at her with wide eyes, then looking back up at Gohan.
"I don't know! That's why we came here, I wanted to know if you could take a DNA sample to see if she's got saiyan blood. Then maybe we could figure it out from there."
"Well... I guess we do sort of need to know. Alright... Well, come with me Kioshi, we'll take a blood sample." She said motioning for her to follow as she turned and began to walk away.
Kioshi just stood there, still hiding behind Gohan.
"What's wrong? Come on, it's not like I'm going to bite you." Bulma said looking at her.
"You're going to bite me?!" Kioshi yelled grabbing onto Gohan's leg even tighter, having heard totally wrong.
Gohan pulled her off and kneeled down next to her. "Kioshi, Bulma is a friend, she isn't going to hurt you. Now if you want to find out what's going on you're going to have to follow her alright?"
Kioshi nodded and in a soft whisper agreed, then scurried off, head down behind Bulma.
"Now sit right over there while I get the needle." Bulma instructed.
Hesitantly Kioshi followed her instructions and went and sat in the chair. Soon Bulma returned with the needle and syringe.
"Alright, now hold still. This won't hurt a bit if you don't think about it." She said trying to be comforting as she lifted her shirtsleeve and swabbed the spot before taking the blood sample.
Kioshi flinched in anticipation, and looked over to see she had already taken the sample and was putting a band-aid over the tiny prick in her arm.
"There we go. It's done now. And we should have the results back by tomorrow, depends on how long it takes the computer to process it. Let's go back outside now with Gohan now alright." She said smiling and reaching out her hand.
Kioshi, being skittish, clasped both her hands together in front of her and followed Bulma back out to where Gohan waited and ran to his side.
"So, what did you find out?" Gohan said a bit impatient sounding.
"I won't know until tomorrow or the next day."
"Oh... well, uhm... what am I supposed to do with her until we know..." Gohan said now realizing the girl had no place to stay.
"Well you know Vegeta won't tolerate having her here, so you're just going to have to take her home with you."
"But Bulma! My mom's not going to be happy with having a house guest!" Gohan said pleadingly.
"You're the one who found her, you keep her. Besides, you're the only person she seems to trust. You're just going to have to deal with her."
Gohan sighed. "I guess you're right... well, thanks Bulma. We'll come back to find out what you know tomorrow." He said taking Kioshi's hand and leading her out the back door.
"Anytime!" Bulma called out after them.
Outside Vegeta had just wrung all the information he could possibly get from his son and was right beside the door waiting for them.
"So you think you're a saiyan do you little girl? Well you can leave it up to this idiot to think something impossible to be true." Vegeta said harshly as they exited.
Kioshi jumped and once again was hiding behind Gohan.
Gohan shook his head and just kept walking. "It's ok, he's just a grump." He whispered to Kioshi.
"I heard that!" Vegeta yelled after them as Gohan picked Kioshi up and took off, Videl coming up right along side of them.
"So what'd you find out?" Videl asked as they made their way towards the countryside where Gohan's house was.
"Nothing yet... now I have to go try to talk mom into letting her stay with us until we get this all straightened out." He said with a sigh.
Videl laughed at this. "Well good luck knowing your mom. You're going to need it."
"I know I know..." Gohan sighed. 'This is going to be a really long day...' He thought as the house came into sight.
Cherrym: Glad you like it so far, and I plan to finish this ASAP, I even have plans for a sequel already brewing in my head...
Starangel4899: Thanks for the rating, I'm glad you like it. I'm not very familiar with GT either, but Kioshi is a made up, she's been wandering around in my head for a year or two... so I finally decided to bring her to life and write her story down.
Falafal: Ok, well, glad I made you grin! . Love to get comments like that... uhm, well, telling you that would ruin the story I think (Inner Ki-ki: You haven't decided yet have you?) Ki-ki: Shut up! Their not supposed to know that, and for your information I do so know! Eheh... sorry about that, as I was saying... yeh, she does know, she just doesn't remember... yet, tehehe, but that shall reveal itself soon enough.
