Chapter 3

The six spectators around the Dragonball circle stood in shocked silence. Vegeta collapsed to his knees as the full impact of what had happened hit him. Namek gone, destroyed by the whim of this Kaos. Not only that, but the eternal dragon Porunga had been destroyed as well. How could anyone fight a creature that had that much power?

Dende's mind couldn't take the loss of his whole race, his body stiffened as he fell to the floor.

"Oh Dende," said Mr Popo, "What are we to do?"

"We… need Piccolo."

Gohan stepped forward and touched the Dragonballs, trying to get Porunga to come forth and tell him what had happened to Piccolo.

"Porunga. We need to know what has happened to Piccolo. What happened to him?"

The stones remained inert, almost mockingly silent as the Z fighters stood around in shock and fear. Gohan turned around, tears already running down his cheeks as he walked away from the remains of the Dragonballs.

"Piccolo is the last resting place of the Nameks. He is our saviour."

Everyone spun around as the voice of Porunga called out from the very air around them.

Dende awoke suddenly as Mr Popo wafted the salts under his nose.

"What does he mean the last resting place of the Nameks? How is Piccolo going to save anyone in that state?"

"The last resting place…Krillen is that Porunga said?"

"Yeah. Piccolo is the last resting place of the Nameks. He is our saviour."

Dende suddenly stood up as he rushed off back into the main chamber.

"What is up with him?"

"I don't know Vegeta but I think we had better find out."

Dende ran back into the chamber, checking only briefly on Piccolo before running off again deeper into the main chamber. The others ran along behind him but only Trunks carried on after him. Bulma, Krillen, Vegeta and Gohan went in to look at Piccolo. His state still had not changed.

"He really does look in a bad way. What did Porunga mean that he is our saviour?"

"I don't know Bulma. But hope that Dende knows a way to make him better."

"What we need to do is train some more! This creature managed to kill Porunga. What is this Namek going to be able to do against him?"

"Oh and so what are you going to do then Vegeta? You think you can train hard enough to fight him?" Bulma stood up approaching Vegeta slowly. "And how are you going to find him? You going to wait till he gets to Earth? Or are you going to get that scared Saiyan butt of yours into space and look for him."

"Don't talk to me like that Woman! I will hunt this Kaos down if I need to."

With that Vegeta spun around and blasted his way out of the Lookout.

"Let him go Gohan. He needs to cool down a bit."

Gohan stopped and returned to looking at Piccolo, still gibbering on the counter.

"The last resting place of the Nameks… The last resting place of the Nameks… Surely Porunga could not have done that? No wonder he is in such a state. Oh poor Piccolo. I just hope that this will work."

Trunks stood at the edge of the Library as Dende rummaged through piles and piles of books trying to find what he was looking for.

"Can I…"

"Sorry Trunks, It will be quicker for me to find it than explain what I am looking for."

Another book flew over his shoulder as he carried on looking. Trunks could do little but stand and watch as the pile grew.

"Here it is… Yes… Yes… Quickly trunks…"

Dende walked back into the room with as much of a smile as he could muster.

"Gohan please can you take Piccolo outside. I think I might know a way to help him."

Gohan did as he was told, easily picking up the unconscious form of Piccolo and carrying his struggling form outside. Krillen and Bulma followed the struggling duo outside as Dende lead them outside the main chamber. Trunks was already outside, he had moved the remains of the Namekian Dragonballs out of the way and replaced them with the Earth ones.

"Shenron…If this Kaos can defeat Porunga what is Shenron going to be able to do?"

"We don't need Shenron to kill Kaos, just to give us the tool to do it with."

With the last Dragonball in place Trunks stood back.

"Shenron we call upon you."

The seven balls began to glow with power, a huge lance of light blasted upwards as Shenron came forth.

"Who has called me from my slumber?"

"Mighty Shenron it is I Dende."

"Dende, I remember you. You may make your wishes."

"Piccolo has been given the power of the Namekian race. But he can not control the power of so many beings at once. I wish that you can calm his mind. Allow Piccolo to regain control of his mind and body."

Shenron looks down upon the twitching form of Piccolo below him and leans down. Moving his head down towards the Namek, Shenron stops scant inches from his body. Shenron's eyes glow brightly as Piccolo's body is bathed in yellow light. Rising off the ground the aura grows in intensity bathing the now still form of Piccolo in its light and energy. With a final burst of light Piccolo returns to the floor, his body now still. Shenron rears up to her normal height.

"It is done."

"My second wish is that the Namekian Dragonballs are restored."

Shenron looks down at the shattered forms of the Namekian Dragonballs. For a split second an expression resembling fear flicks across her face.

"Dende it is not within my power to restore the Dragonballs."

The others looked around disheartened; Porunga it seemed was gone forever.

"Shenron I wish that we can track and find that blasted creature Kaos and his ship the Nal-Zagger."

"Vegeta!" yelled everyone else.

"Will you grant my wish?"

Shenron nodded.

"It is done, Goodbye."

With that the seven Dragonballs rose into the air, consuming Shenron before blasting off into the seven winds. Where the seven Dragonballs had been there floated a small shiny blue capsule. Bulma walked over to it and pressed the button before throwing it to the ground. With a large pop a huge cloud of smoke appeared obscuring the form of the contents. As the smoke cleared a spaceship stood in its place. Large and gleaming it hummed already with the contained power of its main drive.

"I think it is time we paid Kaos a visit."

Vegeta walked over and climbed aboard the ship.
